Attachment to Form 12b-25


The Registrant had a pretax profit of approximately $1 million in 1994 and
anticipated a pretax loss of  $4.86 million in 1995 due mainly to the following
reasons:

a) Of the $4.86 million net loss recorded by the Registrant for 1995, $4.30
   million occurred in the first half and included a $1.81 million charge
   related to the Registrant's management and business restructuring which was
   completed by June 30, 1995.

b) Under new management, the losses declined in the second half of 1995,
   resulting in third and fourth quarter losses of $417,320 and $151,476
   respectively.  Losses in the  second half of 1995 were primarily
   attributable to expenses related to the expansion of the Registrant's
   international condom business and the lag period for new glove price
   increases, instituted at the end of the third quarter, to take effect.
