DRUG SCREENING SYSTEMS, INC.
Notes to Financial Statements
For the Six Months Ended December 31, 1995 and 1994

A.   Basis of Presentation

Since its inception, except for two quarters in Fiscal 1995, the Company has
sustained recurring losses from operations. The Company has financed its
operations and research and development program primarily through proceeds
received from its initial public offering in May 1988 and subsequent securities
offerings.

The Board of Directors is exploring various financing options, including a
possible sale or merger. The Company raised $100,000 in subscriptions through a
private placement pursuant to Regulation D under the Securities Act of 1933 as
ammended (the "securities Act") during the quarter ended December 31, 1995.
Under this offering, shares of the Company's Common Stock were offered at $0.25
a share. The 400,000 shares will be issued subsequent to December 31, 1995. If
operations are maintained at the levels currently expected, the cash raised by
this private placement and cash generated by operations will not be sufficient
to meet the Company's cash needs for the balance of Fiscal 1996. The Company
anticipates increased activity during the second half of Fiscal 1996 and members
of the Board of Directors have committed to furnish sufficient additional
funding to determine if the increased activity can be realized. There is,
however, no assurance that this increased activity will be achieved.

Further, there is no assurance that management's actions will result in the
Company achieving profitability in Fiscal 1996 or thereafter. See Item 2 to this
Report for more detailed discussion.

Unless the Company can (1) obtain such capital contributions or financing as may
be required to fulfill its development and marketing activities, (2) achieve a
level of sales adequate to support the Company's cost structure and (3)
ultimately operate profitably, the Company may be unable to continue as a going
concern. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might
result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

B. Revenue Recognition

The Company recognizes revenues at the time Product is shipped. The Company had
arrangements with two customers whereby title and risk of loss transfers to the
customers upon transfer of Product from the Company's finished goods inventory
into a segregated refrigeration unit on the Company's premises and, accordingly,
the Company recognizes revenue at the time such Product is transferred. During
the quarter ended December 31, 1995, the Company terminated one of these
arrangements within the terms of the agreement. There were no sales to the
terminated party during the six-month periods ended December 31, 1995 and 1994.
Sales under the remaining arrangement totaled $534,451 during the first six
months of Fiscal 1996 and $682,526 during the first six months of Fiscal 1995,
of which $660,000 and $690,396 was in the refrigerated storage unit at December
31, 1995 and June 30, 1995, respectively.

The tax effects of significant items comprising the Company's net deferred taxes
as of December 31, 1995 were as follows:

  Property                                           $    44,000
  Allowance for doubtful accounts                         40,000

  Operating loss carryforwards                         5,850,000
  Valuation allowance                                 (5,942,000)
                                                     -----------
                                                     $    --
                                                     ===========

The change in the valuation allowance was an increase of approximately $50,000
during the six months ended December 31, 1995.

There was no provision for current income taxes for either the first six months
of Fiscal 1996 or 1995.


G.   Litigation

On November 14, 1995, the United States Court of Appeals for the Third Circuit,
affirmed the decision by the District Court for the Eastern District of
Pennsylvania dismissing the complaint in the stockholder class action initiated
by Gary and Carole Pache against the Company and three former officers or
directors of the company. The plaintiff did not ask the Court of appeals to
reconsider its decision nor did it they ask the United States Supreme Court to
review the case within the allotted time. Therefore this litigation, more fully
disclosed in the Annual Report is ended.


Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis or Plan of Operation.

The following discussion and analysis for the three and six months ended
December 31, 1995 and 1994 should be read in conjunction with the Financial
Statements included in Item 1 of this report.

Results of Operations - Six Months Ended December 31, 1995 Versus 1994
- ----------------------------------------------------------------------

Revenues - The Company's revenues from sales were $1,000,218 and $1,224,921 in
the first six months of Fiscal 1996 and 1995, respectively. This decrease of
$224,703 (22%) resulted from decreased sales to Borg-Warner Information
Services, Inc. ("BWIS") of approximately $148,000. Because the Company had
manufactured the maximum amount under its arrangement, it can no longer build
for stock owned by BWIS. Sales to other customers in the first six months of
Fiscal 1995 decreased by approximately $ 77,000 due primarily to having a large
one-time bid sale in the six months ended December 31, 1994 which was not
replaced with new business in the six months ended December 31, 1995.
<PAGE>

The Company's gross profit of $605,901 for the first six months of Fiscal 1996
amounted to 78% of its operating expenses as compared with $518,232 and 61%,
respectively, in the first six months of Fiscal 1995. At the gross profit
percentage for the first six months of Fiscal 1996, the Company would have had
to generate approximately $1,247,000 in sales to cover such operating expenses
as compared with $2,018,000 in the first six months of Fiscal 1995.

Cost of sales and gross profit - The Company's cost of sales for the first six
months of Fiscal 1996 was $394,317 and its gross profit percentage was 60.6% as
compared with $706,689 and 42.3, respectively for the comparable period in
Fiscal 1995. This increase in the gross profit as a percent of sales resulted
primarily from sales to higher margin customers and certain production
efficiencies in the manufacturing process.

Operating expenses - Operating expenses of $771,984 for the six months ended
December 31, 1995 decreased $ 81,712 from $ 853,696 for the comparable period in
Fiscal 1995. This decrease resulted principally from the cost reduction program
implemented in July 1994. Salaries and wages-selling decreased by approximately
$ 33,000 due to the elimination of the outside sales force. Reductions in sales
related expenses and travel expenses accounted for approximately $ 37,000 of the
decrease.

Net loss - The Company had a net loss of $164,383 for the first six months of
Fiscal 1996. This was a decrease of $168,667 from the loss of $333,050 for the
first six months of Fiscal 1995. The decrease in the net loss was primarily
attributable to the reduction in operating expenses and the higher gross margin.

Results of Operations - Three Months Ended December 31, 1995 Versus 1994
- ------------------------------------------------------------------------

Revenues - The Company's revenues from sales were $469,060 and $615,983 in the
second quarter of Fiscal 1996 and 1995, respectively. This decrease of $146,923
(31%) resulted from decreased sales to BWIS of approximately $ 110,000 for the
reasons cited in the six-month analysis. Sales to other customers in the second
quarter of Fiscal 1996 increased by $ 37,000 due to not replacing prior year bid
sales as reported above.

The Company's gross profit of $246,677 for the second quarter of Fiscal 1996
amounted to 63% of its operating expenses as compared with $261,610 and 60%,
respectively, in the second quarter of Fiscal 1995. At the gross profit
percentage for the second quarter of Fiscal 1996, the Company would have had to
generate approximately $548,000 in sales to cover such operating expenses as
compared to $1,018,000 in the second quarter of Fiscal 1995.
<PAGE>

Cost of sales and gross profit - The Company's cost of sales for the second
quarter of Fiscal 1996 was $222,383 and its gross profit percentage was 52.6 %
as compared with $354,373 and 42.5%, respectively for the comparable period in
Fiscal 1995. This gross profit percentage of 52.6% approximates the level
achieved for Fiscal 1995.

Operating expenses - Operating expenses of $388,149 for the quarter ended
December 31, 1995 decreased $ 44,329 from $432,478 for comparable period in
Fiscal 1995. Salaries and wages-selling was $33,000 of the decrease. Reductions
in sales related expenses, and travel expenses accounted for approximately $
11,000 of the decrease.

Net loss - The Company had a net loss of $140,929 for the second quarter of
Fiscal 1996. This was a decrease of $ 28,704 from the loss of $169,633 for the
second quarter of Fiscal 1995. The decrease in the net loss was primarily
attributable to the reduction in operating expenses and the higher gross margin.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
- -------------------------------

The Company had working capital at December 31, 1995 of $50,699 as compared to $
99,456 at June 30, 1995. At December 31, 1995, the Company had the availability
of $ 77,311 of cash as compared to $305,108 at June 30, 1995. The changes in the
working capital and cash between June 30 and December 31, 1995 were primarily
attributable to the net loss for the six months ended December 31, 1995, offset
by the private placement described below. See the Statement of Cash Flows in
Item 1 of this Report.

Accounts receivable increased to $134,421 from $124,975 at December 31 and June
30, 1995, respectively. This increase is due to normal business fluctuations.

Inventory increased by $ 105,527 to $484,863 at December 31, 1995 from $379,336
at June 30, 1995. This increase is due to utilizing idle manufacturing capacity
to build tests for an anticipated order by BWIS related to the Summer Olympics.

Current liabilities decreased $ 91,797 to $681,478 at December 31, 1995 from
$773,275 at June 30, 1995. This decrease resulted primarily from the decrease in
the level of activity and payment of older invoices.

As of December 31, 1995, the Company had shareholders' equity of $607,212. This
decrease of $ 64,383 from $671,595 at June 30, 1995 resulted from the net loss
for the six months ended December 31, 1995 of $164,383 offset by the private
placement described below.
<PAGE>

Net cash used in operating activities was $252,343. This was primarily due to
the net loss for the six months ended December 31, 1995. Net cash used in
investing activities was $ 1,963 and resulted primarily from the purchase of
capital equipment. Cash received in financing activities was $ 26,509 which was
the result of the private placement described below, offset by principal
payments on non-bank financing.

The Company raised $100,000 through a private placement pursuant to Regulation D
under the Securities Act. Under this offering, shares of the Company's Common
Stock were offered at $0.25 a share during the second quarter of Fiscal 1996.
The shares will be issued subsequent to December 31, 1995. If operations are
maintained at the levels currently expected, the cash raised by this private
placement and cash generated by such operations will not be sufficient, in
management's opinion, to meet the Company's cash needs for the balance of Fiscal
1996. However, the Company anticipates increased activity during the second half
of Fiscal 1996 and members of the Board of Directors have committed to furnish
additional funding to determine if the increased activity can be realized. There
is, however, no assurance that this level of activity can be achieved.


As previously announced, the Company is actively seeking a strategic partner.
Currently talks are ongoing, however to date there have been no agreements
reached in these negotiations. There can be no assurance that negotiations will
be completed successfully.

Unless the Company can (1) obtain capital contributions or financing as may be
required to fulfill its development and marketing activities, (2) achieve a
level of sales adequate to support the Company's cost structure and (3)
ultimately operates profitably, the Company will be unable to continue as a
going concern.
