NOTE C - ACQUISITIONS
On February 1, 1998, the Company completed the acquisition of the assets of
Copywise, Inc. ("Copywise"), a floppy disk replicator located in Fremont,
California. The acquisition will be accounted for by the purchase method of
accounting. Goodwill associated with the purchase will be amortized over 15
years. The noncontingent purchase was approximately $1,670,000 of cash and the
assumption of approximately $667,000 of liabilities. The purchase price may be
increased by an additional $1,560,000 depending upon the attainment of certain
financial objectives by the acquired business through January 31, 2000.

<PAGE>
In July 1997, the Company acquired certain assets and assumed certain
liabilities of Certified Media Corporation ("CMC"), a compact disc replicator
located in Fremont, California. The initial purchase price was $5,500,000,
including $2,800,000 of cash, 171,210 shares of Vaughn Communications, Inc.
common stock valued at $1,200,000, and long-term debt to the sellers of
$1,500,000. The purchase price may be increased to a maximum of $7,500,000
depending upon CMS's attainment of specific financial objectives through January
31, 1999. Goodwill recorded in this transaction is being amortized over 15
years using the straight-line method.
In July 1997, the Company also acquired certain assets of Dub South, a videotape
duplicator located in Atlanta, Georgia. The noncontingent purchase price
included $311,000 of cash and the assumption of approximately $439,000 of
liabilities. The purchase price may be increased by an additional $1,200,000,
depending on the profit performance for the next five years. There was no
goodwill recorded on this transaction.
All the acquisitions have been accounted for by the purchase method of
accounting, and the consolidated financial statements for the period ended April
30, 1998, reflect the purchase of the businesses and include any results from
operations subsequent to the closing date of the respective transactions.
The following unaudited pro forma information presents the consolidated results
of operations of the Company as if the acquisitions had been completed as of
February 1, 1997.

ITEM 2 - MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION
Net sales increased 30% in the first quarter from $18,266,000 in 1997 to
$23,695,000 in 1998. The increase was due to additional sales resulting from
acquisitions and growth from pre-existing operations. Gross margins as a
percentage of sales were 33.5% in the first quarter of 1998, compared to 33.8%
in the first quarter of the prior year. Operating expenses of $5,924,000 in the
first three months of 1998 were approximately 25% greater than the same period
last year. Interest expense also increased from approximately $307,000 in the
first quarter of 1997 to $458,000 in 1998. The increase in interest was due to
higher levels of borrowings associated with growth and acquisitions (see
footnote). The increase in sales resulted in a 27% increase in net income, from
$720,000 in the first quarter of 1997 to $914,000 in the first quarter of 1998.
The contribution each division made to these results is discussed below.
COMMUNICATIONS DIVISION
On February 1, 1998, the Company acquired the assets of Copywise, Inc.
("Copywise"), a floppy disk replicator located in Fremont, California, for a
non-contingent purchase price of approximately $1,670,000 and the assumption of
approximately $667,000 of liabilities. The acquisition has been accounted for
as a purchase and the operating results are included in the Company's results as
of the date of acquisition. The operations of Copywise have been merged into
the Company's preexisting facility in Fremont.
The Communications Division's net sales increased 41% in the first quarter of
1998 from $13,972,000 in 1997 to $19,729,000. The net sales generated from the
Company's acquisitions, including Copywise and Certified Media (which was
acquired on July 31, 1997) and a 16% increase in sales from preexisting
facilities contributed to the sales growth.
Gross margins as a percentage of sales declined slightly from 34.9% in the first
quarter of 1997 to 34.2% in 1998. The decrease was due to the lower margins
being realized in the CD replication portion of the business. The gross margins
from videotape duplication remain strong and have increased from last year's 35%
to 37% in 1998.
Selling and administrative expenses have increased 35% from the previous year
due primarily to the additional expenses associated with the previously
discussed acquisitions, including goodwill amortization and noncompete payments.
The increase in net sales, and the maintaining of gross margins resulted in a
41% increase in pretax income, from $844,000 in the first quarter of 1997 to
$1,190,000 in the first quarter of 1998.
PRODUCTS DIVISION
The Products Division's net sales decreased 8% in the first quarter of 1998,
from $4,293,000 to $3,966,000. The decrease can be attributed in part to a
shortfall in sales in the Alaska market due to a change in sales personnel in
this market.
Gross margins have remained at 30% for the first three months, while operating
expenses have decreased by 12% from the pervious year, from $862,000 in 1997 to
$756,000 in 1998. The reduction in operating expenses reflects the Company's
efforts at cost control and helped offset the decrease in sales. As a result of
the cost control efforts, pretax income increased 2% from the prior year, from
$390,000 in the first quarter of 1997 to $399,000 in the first quarter of 1998.

<PAGE>
LIQUIDITY AND SOURCES OF CAPITAL
Cash provided by operations and financing provided by banks and third parties
continue to be the Company's primary sources of funds to finance operating needs
and capital expenditures. In the first quarter of 1998, cash flow from
operations of $697,000, along with borrowings from third parties, was used to
fund capital expenditures of approximately $1,772,000 and to fund the $1,580,000
purchase of Copywise.
Based on past performance and current expectations, the Company believes that
working capital levels, coupled with its ability to borrow additional funds
under its $17,000,000 credit facility with a bank (of which approximately
$3,700,000 is available at April 30, 1998), are adequate to meet the operating
requirements of the Company for the next nine months. The Company continues to
explore strategic acquisitions and alternative funding proposals. As of May 31,
1998, no definitive agreements have been reached regarding any such
acquisitions.
