On June 30, 1993, the Company entered into an amended agreement with private
investors which provided the Company with a loan in the amount of $200,000
repayable in one year together with an interest rate of 9% annum. In addition,
the amended agreement granted the investors two year options to purchase an
aggregate of 400,000 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $4.75 per
share. In July 1993, one of the private investors assigned $20,000 of the loan
along with options to purchase 40,000 shares of common stock to one of the
Company's directors, who has since resigned from the board.
Additionally, two of the former directors provided the Company with loans
aggregating $120,000 during the months of August and September, 1993 payable on
demand with an interest rate of 9% per annum.
On June 24, 1994, the Company entered into an agreement with the above private
investors, former directors, and the Company's retained legal counsel. Pursuant
to the agreement the due date for the investors and former directors loans and
fees payable ($250,000) to legal counsel were extended until the first to occur
of (i) June 30, 1996, (ii) a public financing by the Company, or (iii) a
private financing of the Company of not less than $2,500,000. In addition, the
exercise period of the investors' options to purchase 400,000 shares of common
stock were extended three years and the exercise price was reduced to $1.50.
Furthermore, included in this agreement were the grant of five year warrants to
one of the former directors and the legal firm to purchase such number of
shares of common stock of the Company as is equal to the aggregate dollar
amount of loans to made ($150,000) by that former director and unpaid legal
fees ($250,000) at an exercise price of $1.00 per share. There was no value
attached to these warrants.
As the aforementioned June 30, 1996 date has been reached, the amounts owing to
the investors, former directors and counsel are past due. On September 17, 1998
the private investors filed a lawsuit in the Superior Court of New Jersey for
the principal amount of $ 200,000, plus unpaid interest ($93,000 at September
1, 1998). While the Company does not have the ability to pay the amounts due to
these private investors, or the former directors and legal counsel, it will
seek to renegotiate the terms of payment of these obligations. There can be no
assurance, however, that the Company will be successful in these efforts. The
failure to do so would have a material adverse affect on the business of the
Company and its ability to continue as a going concern.
Additionally, at December 31, 1998, the Company had a remaining balance of
$147,728 which was lent to the Company by two then directors during the
Company's second fiscal quarter of 1995. Both loans are payable on demand with
interest at 9% per annum.

Note 5. - Income Taxes
At December 31, 1998 the Company had net operating loss carryforwards available
amounting to approximately $7.0 million which will expire between 2001 and
2012. There is a remote possibility that net operating loss carryforwards of
approximately $500,000 may not be available. There are no significant
differences in the recognition of income and expenses for tax and financial
reporting purposes.
Note 6. - (Loss) Per Share
Basic and diluted per share data is based on the weighted average number of
common shares outstanding. Common stock equivalents would be anti-dilutive and,
therefore, were not included in the diluted per share computations.

Item 2:
MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OR
PLAN OF OPERATION
Results of Operations
- ---------------------
The Company's net sales for the three months ended December 31, 1998 increased
$ 51,000 (15%) compared to the same period a year ago due to an increase in the
current fiscal third quarter sales to the City of New York and U.S. Department
of the Treasury. For the nine months ended December 31, 1998 net sales
decreased $ 87,000 (6%), compared to the corresponding period last year due to
a relatively high revenue level achieved last year from a government contract
at Fort Meade, Maryland without corresponding revenues earned from this
customer during the first nine months of fiscal 1999.
Gross profit as a percentage of net sales for the three months ended December
31, 1998 was 35% compared to 37% during the same period a year ago. For the
nine months ended December 31, 1998, the gross profit percentage was 38%
compared to 46% during the same period a year ago. The decrease in gross margin
for the three and nine months ended December 31, 1998 is due to the adverse
effect of a larger volume of resold purchased equipment versus higher margin
Vikonics manufactured equipment and services sold during the previous fiscal
1998 nine month period.
Engineering, research and development expenses for three months ended
December 31,1998 were $ 52,000, a decrease of 5% ($ 2,800) due to reduced
outside programming costs . Engineering, research and development expenses for
the nine months ended December 31, 1998 were $ 178,000, an increase of 3% ($
5,200) due to product development efforts during the first six months of the
current 1999 fiscal year.
Marketing and sales expenses for the three and nine months ended December 31,
1998 were $ 34,000 an increase of 17% ($ 5,000) versus the expenses incurred
during the same period a year ago, due primarily to increased salary and
commission expense. Marketing and sales expenses for the nine months ended
December 31, 1998 were $ 103,000, a decrease of 24% ($33,000) compared to those
costs incurred during the nine month period ended December 31, 1997, due
primarily to a decrease in consulting fees.
General and administrative expenses for the three and nine months ended
December 31, 1998 were $ 130,000 and $ 328,000, respectively, an increase of
31% ($ 31,000) and 15% ($ 42,000) versus the expenses incurred during the same
periods a year ago. The variation is due to increases in payroll tax
non-payment penalties, interest and service charges.
The net loss for the three months ended December 31, 1998 was $ (96,000)
compared to net loss of $ (72,000) a year ago. The net (loss) for the nine
months ended December 31, 1998 was $ (173,000) compared to net loss of $
(28,000) a year ago, due to the factors regarding revenue and expenses
described above.
The future viability of the Company will depend upon the Company's success in
raising revenue levels, maintaining low cost levels and, if necessary, raising
additional financing. In addition, the future viability of the Company depends
on the outcome of the legal proceeding described under Liquidity and Capital
Resources.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
- -------------------------------
The Company's continued existence is dependent upon its ability to obtain
contract awards which, in the aggregate, will provide significant revenues in
the immediate future. While there can be no assurance of favorable results, the
Company remains optimistic about obtaining these potential contract awards.
To date, there has been no adverse effect on the Company's ability to perform
on any of its contracts due to its limited working capital. The Company has
also been able to maintain a satisfactory relationship with the majority of its
suppliers and has been able to substitute for dissatisfied vendors, when
necessary. For any large contract that the Company might be awarded in the
future where working capital might hamper its ability to perform, the Company
would attempt to negotiate adequate terms and delivery with the customer
and/or, if necessary, obtain required financing. There can be no assurance,
however, that the Company would be successful in these efforts.

<PAGE>
The working capital deficit on December 31, 1998 was ($1,867,000) compared to
($1,694,000) on March 31, 1998. The increase in the working capital deficit is
primarily due to the loss incurred for the nine months ended December 31,1998.
At December 31, 1998 the Company had $ 21,000 in cash, compared to $10,000 in
cash at March 31, 1998.
Accounts receivable decreased by $ 101,000 during the nine months ended
December 31, 1998 due to accelerated cash receipt collections achieved during
the current 1999 fiscal quarter without a corresponding increase in revenue.
Notes and loans payable of $768,000 at December 31, 1998 consist of $50,000
unsecured installment, notes payable used to finance the Company's insurance
premiums, and $718,000 due to private investors, former directors, and legal
counsel.
Pursuant to the agreement the due date for the investors and former directors
loans and fees payable to legal counsel were extended until the first to occur
of (i) June 30, 1996, (ii) a public financing by the Company, or (iii) a
private financing of the Company of not less than $2,500,000. As the June 30,
1996 date has been reached, the amounts owing to the investors, former
directors and counsel are past due. On September 17, 1998 the private investors
filed a lawsuit in the Superior Court of New Jersey for the principal amount of
$ 200,000, plus unpaid interest ($93,000 at September 1, 1998). While the
Company does not have the ability to pay the amounts due to these private
investors, or the former directors and legal counsel, it will seek to
renegotiate the terms of payment of these obligations. There can be no
assurance, however, that the Company will be successful in these efforts. The
failure to do so would have a material adverse affect on the business of the
Company and its ability to continue as a going concern.
Accounts payable of $189,000 at December 31, 1998 are $ 17,000 less than the
balance of $206,000 at March 31, 1998 due simply to the timing of certain
vendor payments. Accrued expenses and other current liabilities at December 30,
1998 of $1,186,000 are $ 99,000 greater than the $1,087,000 at March 31, 1998.
The increase is primarily due to an increase in accrued payroll tax non-
payment penalties and interest for the nine months ended December 31, 1998.
In total, the net cash provided by operating activities was $ 32,000 for the
nine months ended December 31, 1998, as compared to $ 66,000 for the nine
months ended December 31, 1997.
The Company has no significant capital expenditure plans at this time.
The Company has assessed the state of its year 2000 preparedness and has
determined that the potential consequences of year 2000 issues will not
materially affect the Company's business, results of operations or financial
condition.

Part II - Other Information
Item 1.- Legal Proceedings
On June 30, 1993, the Company entered into an amended agreement with private
investors which provided the Company with a loan in the amount of $200,000
repayable in one year together with an interest rate of 9% annum. In July 1993,
one of the private investors assigned $20,000 of the loan along with options to
purchase 40,000 shares of common stock to one of the Company's directors, who

Additionally, two of the former directors provided the Company with loans
aggregating $120,000 during the months of August and September, 1993 payable on
demand with an interest rate of 9% per annum.
On June 24, 1994, the Company entered into an agreement with the above private
investors and others wherein the due date for the loans were extended until the
first to occur of (i) June 30, 1996, (ii) a public financing by the Company, or
(iii) a private financing of the Company of not less than $2,500,000. As the
June 30, 1996 date has been reached, the amounts owing to the investors, former
directors and counsel are past due. On September 17, 1998 the private investors
filed a lawsuit in the Superior Court of New Jersey ( Randolph N. Reynolds,
Arthur H. Sweeney Jr., Manny Weiss and Lilian Weiss vs. Vikonics Inc. ) for the
principal amount of $ 200,000, plus unpaid interest ($93,000 at September 1,
1998). While the Company does not have the ability to pay the amounts due to
these private investors, or the former directors and legal counsel, it will
seek to renegotiate the terms of payment of these obligations. There can be no
assurance, however, that the Company will be successful in these efforts. The
failure to do so would have a material adverse affect on the business of the
Company and its ability to continue as a going concern. (See Note 3 to
