ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
        RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

INTRODUCTION

         Except for historical information contained herein, the information in
this document contains forward-looking comments which are made pursuant to the
safe harbor provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995.
These comments involve risks and uncertainties that could cause the Company's
actual performance to differ materially from expectations. Factors which could
cause or contribute to such differences include, but are not limited to, the
general economic and business conditions affecting the volatile electronics
industry, accuracy of customer forecasts and communications with the Company,
competitive pressures from other independent and captive circuit board
manufacturers, the Company's manufacturing efficiency and the "Risk Factors" set
forth in the Company's preliminary prospectus dated September 8, 1995. The
forward-looking comments should be considered in light of these risks and
uncertainties.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

         The Company has historically financed its operations primarily through
cash generated from operations, although such funds have been supplemented by
borrowings under a line of credit and term notes as needed. The Company's
principal uses of cash historically have been to pay operating expenses, make
capital expenditures and service debt.

         Cash generated from operations totaled $6.1 million and $8.8 million
for the nine months ended April 30, 1996 and 1995 respectively. Major cash uses
include accounts receivable - $1.3 million (see comments below), accounts
payable - $1.1 million, and prepaid expenses, income taxes and other - $800,000.
During the nine months ended April 30, 1996, the Company reduced outstanding
payables and began taking advantage of available vendor payment incentives, and
increased estimated tax payments consistent with income growth. Capital
expenditures totaled $6.6 million and $7.4 million for the nine months ended
April 30, 1996 and 1995 respectively. Capital expenditures made in the nine
months ended April 30, 1995 resulted from routine replacements and execution of
the fiscal 1995 capacity expansion plan. These purchases were financed through
cash generated from operations. The expenditures in the nine months ended April
30, 1996 completed the fiscal 1995 planned capacity expansion and maintained the
fiscal 1996 capital operating requirements. This expansion was also funded with
cash from operations and through the Company's credit facility.

         The Company believes that funds generated from operations and borrowing
availability under the existing line of credit agreement will be sufficient
through fiscal 1996. At April 30, 1996 all $10 million of the line of credit was
available.

         Accounts receivable growth from $14.1 million on July 31, 1995 to $15.1
million on April 30, 1996 was due to a 3.6% increase in sales from the quarter
ended July 31, 1995 to the quarter ended April 30, 1996 and a one day increase
in days sales outstanding driven by a single customer that represents less than
1.5% of net sales.

         Inventory growth of 10.8% from $5.1 million on July 31, 1995 to $5.7
million on April 30, 1996 occurred in finished goods. Finished goods increased
as customers reduced requirements consistent with their inventory reduction and
product transition plans. Customer communications with the Company indicate a
short term correction before normal shipment levels resume. Based on these
inputs and an expanded customer base, the Company expects the order rate to
increase in the second half of calendar 1996.

         Consistent with a growth and broadened capability strategy, the Company
has entered into negotiations to acquire an additional building for enhanced
manufacturing capability. The Company anticipates that funds for the building
will be provided from cash generated from operations.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Comparison of Three Months ended April 30, 1996 and 1995

         Net sales increased 8.9% to $26.5 million for the three months ended
April 30, 1996 from $24.3 million for the three months ended April 30, 1995.
This increase was the result of a 3% unit volume growth, with a continuing mix
shift toward higher layer count, more complex products and the higher selling
prices for these products. Overall, price per layer dropped approximately 2%
from period to period. The Company's principal customers are manufacturers and
contract manufacturers of electronic devices that are subject to rapid
technological change, product obsolescence and economic cycles.

         Gross profit as a percent of net sales decreased to 16.6% for the
three months ended April 30, 1996 from 21.1% for the three months ended April
30, 1995. This decrease resulted from additional costs of increased scrap and
increased manufacturing capability established to support a higher sales level
than occurred in the three months ending April 30, 1996.

         Selling, general and administrative expenses increased 8.1% to $2.0
million for the three months ended April 30, 1996 from $1.9 million for the
three months ended April 30, 1995. This increase was primarily the result of
reserves for doubtful accounts associated with a single customer.

         Income from operations decreased 26.7% to $2.4 million, or 9.1% of net
sales, for the three months ended April 30, 1996 from $3.3 million, or 13.5% of
net sales for the three months ended April 30, 1995 as a result of the above
factors.

         Interest expense decreased 20.3% to $153,000 for the three months
ended April 30, 1996 from $192,000 for the three months ended April 30, 1995.
The decrease was a result of lower average debt levels for February through
April 1996. The net proceeds to the Company from the March 1995 sale of
1,000,000 shares of Common Stock was used to reduce debt during April 1995.

         Income taxes decreased 26.2% to $900,000 for the three months ended
April 30, 1996 from $1.2 million for the three months ended April 30, 1995. The
decrease was a result of the decrease in income before taxes.

Comparison of Nine Months ended April 30, 1996 and 1995

         Net sales increased 20.1% to $83.8 million for the nine months ended
April 30, 1996 from $69.8 million for the nine months ended April 30, 1995. The
majority of this increase was the result of the Company's marketing efforts and
favorable industry trends and unit volume increases during the first two
quarters of the period. The Company's product mix shifted toward more complex
circuit boards and the higher selling prices for these products. For the nine
months ended April 30, 1996 versus the same period in 1995, sales increased 
18.2% due to increased volume/mix, and 1.9% as a result of increased selling
prices.

         Gross profit as a percent of net sales dropped to 19.5% for the nine
months ended April 30, 1996 from 20.0% for the nine months ended April 30,
1995. This decrease was due primarily to higher scrap and manufacturing
capability established to support a higher sales volume.

         Selling, general and administrative expenses increased 13.4% to $6.1 
million for the nine months ended April 30, 1996 from $5.4 million for
the nine months ended April 30, 1995. This increase was the  result of
increased selling and distribution expenses and reserves for doubtful accounts
associated with a single customer.

         Income from operations increased 19.8% to $10.3 million, or 12.2% of
net sales, for the nine months ended April 30, 1996 from $8.6 million, or 12.3%
of net sales for the nine months ended April 30, 1995 as a result of the above
factors.

         Interest expense decreased 44.0% to $446,000 for the nine months ended
April 30, 1996 from $796,000 for the nine months ended April 30, 1995. The
decrease was a result of lower debt levels for August 1995 through April 1996.
The net proceeds to the Company from the March 1995 sale of 1,000,000 shares of
Common Stock was used to reduce debt.

         Income taxes increased 27.1% to $3.9 million for the nine months ended
April 30, 1996 from $3.1 million for the nine months ended April 30, 1995. The
increase was a result of an increase in income before taxes, and an effective
tax rate adjustment to 39.5% from 39.2%.
