</TABLE>

The Company conducts a periodic evaluation of its valuation allowance. Factors
considered in the evaluation include recent demonstrable future earnings, the
Company's liquidity and equity positions. For 1995, all deferred tax assets were
reserved for in the valuation allowance given the Company's limited history of
profitable operations.

There is no income tax payable at December 31, 1995 or at September 30, 1996
because of the usage of net operating loss carryforwards, which expire as

Item 2.             Management's Discussion and Analysis of
                 Financial Condition and Results of Operations

                             Results of Operations
                             ---------------------

Three Months Ended September 30, 1996
- -------------------------------------

Sales increased approximately $759,000 or 51% for the quarter ended September
30, 1996 compared to the quarter ended September 30, 1995 due to revenue
generated from the new product lines acquired from Ulster Scientific, Inc. in
March (the "Acquisition").

The gross margin percentage increased due to shifts in product mix, with the
third quarter generating 37% margins compared to 30% last year. Selling expenses
increased $147,000 to $246,000 for the 1996 quarter, versus $99,000 for the 1995
quarter. Approximately all of this increase was a result of the addition of
sales personnel for new product lines purchased in the Acquisition. General and
Administrative expenses and Research & Development expenses both increased in
the 1996 quarter versus the 1995 quarter, with G&A up $68,000 to $233,000, and
R&D increased $4,000 to $36,000. The increase in G&A expense is mostly
attributable to the amortization of capitalized costs as a result of the
Acquisition.

As a result of the foregoing, Income from Operations increased 113%, or
$163,000, to $307,000 for the 1996 quarter versus income from Operations of
$144,000 for the same quarter in 1995.

Interest expense increased $23,000 from $48,000 in 1995 to $71,000 in 1996 due
to the increases in net borrowings to finance the Acquisition in March.

As a result of the foregoing, the Company incurred a net profit for the quarter
of $229,000, or $.08 per share, for 1996, compared to a net profit of $123,000,
or $.05 per share, in 1995. On a proforma basis, without including the $385,000
of extraordinary and other income recognized in the third quarter of 1995 (due
to the sale of the Company's facility and the prepayment of certain capitalized
leases during such quarter), net profit increase 187%, or $491,000 for the third
quarter of 1996 compared to the third quarter of 1995.

Nine Months Ended September 30, 1996
- ------------------------------------

Sales increased approximately $2,474,000, or 67% for the nine months ended
September 30, 1996, compared to the nine months ended September 30, 1995 due to
increased suture sales to the veterinary market and the U.S. Government, as well
as approximately $1,986,000 of revenue generated from the new product lines
acquired in connection with the Acquisition.

Gross margins increased to 33% from 32%. The margin increase is due to shifts in
the product mix, mostly as a result of the acquired product lines.

Gross profits were $2,017,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 1996,
compared to $1,174,00 for the nine months ended September 30, 1995. Total
operating expenses increased $359,000 or 38% for the nine months ended September
30, 1996 due to increases in sales and administrative staff, and as a result of
the amortization of capitalized costs incurred in connection with the
Acquisition.

                                       8
<PAGE>
 
Interest income decreased $11,000 during the 1996 nine-month period as a result
of lower investment balances. Interest expense decreased $77,000 due to lower
levels of borrowing.

As a result of the foregoing, the Company incurred a net profit of $574,000, or
$.19 per share, for the nine months ended September 30, 1996 compared to a net
profit of $70,000, or $.03 per share, during the comparable period of 1995. On a
proforma basis, without including the $385,000 of extraordinary and other income
recognized in the third quarter of 1995 (due to the sale of the Company's
facility and the prepayment of certain capitalized leases during such quarter,
net profit increased 282%, or $889,000, for the nine months ended September 30,
1996 compared to the nine months ended September 30, 1995.

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

At September 30, 1996, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of $115,000 and
working capital of $4,639,000.

In September 1996, the Company's lines of credit were renewed through August 31,
1997. As part of this renewal, the working capital line of credit was increased
from $500,000 to $1,000,000, and the letter-of-credit line was increased from
$700,000 to $1,500,000.

As of September 30, 1996, the Company had drawn advances on the working capital
line of $675,000, and there were approximately $762,000 in letters-of-credit
outstanding relating to raw material purchases and other general purposes.

In February 1996, the Company received SBA approval for a new revolving working
capital line of credit which allows the Company to draw up to $420,000 to
finance labor costs and inventory purchases relating to U.S. Government
contracts. At September 30, 1996, the balance due on this line was approximately
$36,000, and proceeds from contracts in the same amount were assigned to the
bank.

The Company also has an SBA export working capital line-of-credit agreement,
which provides working capital for export sales up to the lesser of (a) $350,000
or (b) 80 percent of the face amount of negotiated Letters of Credit issued for
the benefit of the Borrower and delivered to Lender. At September 30, 1996,
there was $126,000 outstanding under this line-of-credit agreement.

In March 1996, the Company borrowed $400,000 from a major shareholder, with
interest at 9%, and principal and interest due in September 1997. These proceeds
were used to pay certain amounts assumed as a part of the Acquisition.
