Management's  Discussion  and  Analysis of  Financial  Condition  and Results of
Operations

Liquidity and Capital Resources
- -------------------------------
As of December 31, 1998,  the  Company's  cash position was $329,776 and working
capital  was  $423,327,  compared to cash of  $372,526  and  working  capital of
$383,645 in the prior period. The cash position decreased during the period as a
result of the purchase of new plant and  equipment  and an increase in inventory
of the  Company.  Management  believes  that  these  funds  and cash  flow  from
operations  are  adequate  to fund  ongoing  operations.  However,  there  is no
assurance  that  these  funds will prove  adequate  if the  Company is unable to
maintain positive cash flow operations in the future.

Capital Equipment Requirements and Equipment Leases
- ---------------------------------------------------
The Company,  from time to time, has satisfied  certain of its capital equipment
requirements  by entering into  equipment  leases with third parties or purchase
arrangements with the equipment manufacturers. During 1999, the Company has been
able to arrange satisfactory equipment and automobile purchase contracts. During
the six months ending December 31, 1998, the company  purchased for cash a metal
spectrographic  analysis  machine for  approximately  $30,000 and a new computer
controlled milling machine which is leased.

The Company  anticipates that additional  capital equipment will be required for
the Company's  operating  divisions  during 1999.  The Company will use its best
efforts to satisfy  its  capital  needs by using  internally  generated  cash in
excess of debt repayments and by entering into other  arrangements as available.
There can be no assurances that cash resources will be adequate.

Factors Affecting Future Results
- --------------------------------
The Company  must make  payments to certain  creditors  in  accordance  with the
Company's 1991 Plan of  Reorganization.  The total of the  non-interest  bearing
notes,  at December 31, 1998 was  $186,399  compared to $412,953 at December 31,
1997.

The Company settled an interim claim with the EPA for $100,000 plus interest for
a Superfund Site cleanup in connection  with waste  generated in the 1970's by a
former  division.  The Company made the third payment of $20,000 in August 1998,
with the last payment due August 2000. Based on the settlement  reached with the
EPA in 1996 for the interim  claim,  the Company  believes  that its reserve for
future  liability  in the  amount of  $120,000  is  adequate  to cover any final
settlement.

The Company has reviewed its internal  computer systems for year 2000 compliance
and is satisfied  that all of its internal  computer  systems are either already
year-2000  compliant or can be made year-2000 compliant through simple upgrades.
The Company does not expect the costs of achieving full year-2000  compliance to
be material for the internal  systems.  However,  there can be no assurance that
coding  errors  or  other  defects  will not be  discovered  in the  future.  In
addition,  since the Company is very small in relation to many of its  customers
and suppliers,  the Company has been unable to ascertain if any of its suppliers
and  customers are year-2000  compliant.  Therefore,  there can be no assurances
that  the  Company's  cash  flow  and  materials  from  suppliers  will  not  be
interrupted   which  could  result  in  severe   disruptions  in  the  Company's
operations.

Results of Operations
- ---------------------
Comparison  of three and six months ended  December  31, 1998,  and December 31,
1997.

The  Company's  sales for the six months  ending  December 31,  1998,  decreased
slightly by $13,453 or 0.5% over the comparable period of the prior year.

There has been a noticeable decrease in the Company's markets, the backlog which
was approximately $1,852,052 at June 30, 1998, decreased at December 31, 1998 to
$1,773,751.  Significantly,  a substantial  part of the backlog is stretched out
over the next year.  Despite  continued sales and marketing efforts and expense,
tooling  sales of the ALJ Division  have  decreased.  This means that as current
production  orders are filled,  production  will decrease  causing a potentially
significant decrease in profits. The company is increasing the marketing efforts
by adding  mailings to the schedule  and is changing  sales  representatives  in
under performing territories.  As a result of this slowdown ALJ recently has cut
back the work force by 10-15%.

The Apollo  Division  has  improved  production  yields and although the October
through December quarter is traditionally a slow sales period,  division profits
exceeded the prior year.  Apollo  shipments are expected to increase  during the
next six months and are  therefore  expected to provide  increasing  profits and
cash flow.  However,  Apollo increases are not expected to offset ALJ decreases.
Therefore,  it is likely that the company's profits,  cash position and earnings
per share will decrease as compared to 1998.

The cost of  sales  remained  constant  at 64.8%  for  both  periods.  Operating
expenses  increased  $158,336 as compared to the prior six month period of which
approximately  $36,000  represents  additional  selling  expenses.  The  Company
expects  to  continue  heavy  selling  activities  during the next six months to
obtain new tooling and orders.  Administrative expense increased due to increase
in overhead and expenses  associated  with marketing,  web site  development and
other expenses.  As a result, the net income decreased in the quarter to $12,709
(1%) as compared to $90,132 in the prior period.
