                        MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
                     FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

FINANCIAL CONDITION

Net cash provided by operating activities totaled $5.5 million for the nine
months ended October 31, 1995, an increase of $3.7 million over the nine months
ended October 31, 1994. Higher earnings, increased depreciation, and
amortization, and the timing of disbursements accounted for much of the
increase. Expenditures for fixed assets declined from $5.6 million for the first
nine months last year to $3.1 million during the current year, further improving
the company's cash position. The company had $2.0 million of cash and no notes
payable at October 31, 1995, compared to $1.8 million of cash and $3.0 million
of notes payable at October 31, 1994.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Third quarter sales of $35.6 million were slightly less than the $35.9 million
of third quarter sales in the prior year. Net income of $2.0 million ($.41 per
share) in the third quarter was 22 percent less than the $2.5 million ($.53 per
share) reported one year ago. The decline in net income from the prior year
third quarter was primarily a result of the company's conversion from defense to
commercial revenues, slower sales of sewn products and start up costs at the
company's pickup truck topper plant in Arizona. Net sales for the nine months
ended October 31, 1995 were $90.6 million, approximately the same level as the
first nine months of the prior fiscal year. Net income of $4.6 million ($.97 per
share) was 15 percent higher than the first nine months of the prior fiscal
year. The second quarter of the prior period included a $1.8 million pre-tax
charge at the company's Beta Raven subsidiary.

Electronics segment sales of $6.9 million in the third quarter were 18 percent
lower than the prior year. Increased sales of agricultural electronics were
offset by sharply lower defense shipments. Foreign and domestic military
shipments totaling $3.5 million shipped during the third quarter of the prior
year. These shipments carried strong margins and had no counterpart in the
quarter ended October 31, 1995. Third quarter operating income of $511,000 was
down 64 percent from the third quarter of the prior fiscal year. Nine month
sales of $23.6 million were essentially unchanged from the first nine months of
the prior year. Operating income over the same period was $2.9 million; down 3
percent from the nine months ended October 31, 1994 after adjustment for the
Beta Raven charge.

Plastics segment sales of $15.4 million in the third quarter were up 20 percent
from the third quarter of the prior year. Increased sales of flexible films, due
partially to demand for plastic film in response to the severe hurricane season,
and higher sales of plastic tanks accounted for the increase. Operating income
of $1.3 million in the third quarter was up 46 percent from the prior year's
third quarter. The profit impact of the higher sales was partially offset by
start-up costs in the company's Arizona pickup-truck topper plant. Nine month
sales of $41.0 million were 16 percent higher than the first nine months of the
prior year. Nine month operating income of $2.5 million was essentially
unchanged from the prior year as the losses in Arizona and the unfavorable
impact of higher raw material costs offset the impact of higher sales during the
first two quarters of the fiscal year.

Sewn Products segment sales continued to be depressed by last year's
exceptionally mild winter in much of the United States and the resulting
inventory carryover by our major customers. Sales of $13.3 million were down 10
percent from the third quarter of the prior year. Operating income for the
quarter was $1.3 million; down 16 percent from the comparable quarter last year.
Nine month sales of $26.0 million and operating income of $1.9 million were down
18 and 24 percent, respectively from the first nine months of the prior year.
Nine month defense sales in this segment were down $3.3 million over the first
nine months of the prior year.

Consolidated gross profits in the third quarter were down 11 percent and the
gross margin rate dropped from 20 percent in the third quarter of the prior
fiscal year to 18 percent in the current period. This drop was due primarily to
the lower profitability in the Electronics segment. Selling, administrative and
other expenses were essentially unchanged from the prior year. The income tax
rate of 35.5 percent used in the current year was slightly higher than the 35.0
percent used during the prior fiscal year.
