NOTE 1 CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared by the Company
without audit. In the opinion of management, all material adjustments (which
include only normal recurring adjustments) necessary to present fairly the
financial position at October 31, 1999 and the results of operations and cash
flows for the three month periods ended October 31, 1999 and 1998 have been
made.
Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial
statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting
principles have been condensed or omitted. It is suggested that these
condensed financial statements be read in conjunction with the financial
statements and notes thereto included in the Company's April 30, 1999 audited
financial statements. The results of operation for the periods ended October
31, 1999 and 1998 are not necessarily indicative of the operating results for
the respective full years.
The simulator products which are marketed by the Company sell at a very high
price in comparison to the total annual sales of the Company. This
relationship leads to individual sales having a disproportionately large
effect on total sales. Therefore, sales within a quarter can lead to highly
volatile results of operations for individual quarters. The results for
individual quarters may not be indicative of annual results. All quarterly
information should be considered in light of the last fiscal year and the
current year to date operations of the Company. Furthermore, due to the fixed
nature of certain coast of revenues, the gross margins on relatively low
revenue volumes will be lower than otherwise expected.
NOTE 2 COMMITMENTS AND CONTIJGENCIES
In the normal course of business, there may be various other legal actions
and proceedings pending which seek damages against the Company.
Going Concern
The accompanying financial statements have been presented on a going concern
basis which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of
liabilities in the normal course of business. The Company has incurred
recurring operating losses, has a deficit in working capital, and has an
accumulated earnings deficit.
The company has been unable to qualify for traditional lines of credit.
However, the Company has been able to obtain short term borrowings and lines
of credit from related parties, a local government agency, and a financial
institution which have been backed by certain Company receivables.
The Company's continued existence is dependent upon its ability to focus on
operational considerations in order to maintain the growth in sales
opportunities and continue bringing to fruition a number of the sales
proposals currently outstanding to potential customers. Management plans to
continue focusing its time, attention and financial resources on operational
considerations.

Other Items
In the normal course of business, there may be various other legal actions
and proceedings pending which seek damages against the Company.
NOTE 3 CONCENTRATIONS OF CREDIT RISK
Most of the Company's business activity is with oil companies, port
authorities, training institutions and various other entities, often outside
the United States. Normally, the Company attempts to secure shipments outside
the United States through letters of credit and/or progress payments.
In cases for which shipments are made on open accounts, the Company retains
title or ownership claims to the equipment shipped by terms of its contracts
or agreements until significant payment has been secured.
NOTE 4 CAPITAL STOCK
The Company's capital stock consists of common stock, Class B common stock,
and preferred stock. The common stock provides for a non-cumulative, $.05 per
share annual dividend and a $.01 per share liquidation preference over Class B
common. In addition, the Company must pay the holders of the common stock a
dividend per share at least equal to any dividend paid to the holders of Class
B common. Holders of the common stock are entitled to one-tenth of a vote for
each share held.
Class B common may not receive a dividend until an annual dividend of at
least %.05 is paid on the common stock. Holders of Class B common have
preemptive rights with respect to the Class B common stock and may convert
each share of Class B common into one share of the common stock at any time.
Holders of Class B common are entitled to one vote per share held.
The Series 1 Class A 8% Cumulative Convertible Preferred Stock has a par
value of $.01 per share. As of October 31, 1999 there were 56,575 shares
outstanding.
The overwhelming majority of Preferred shareholders have converted their
Preferred shares into Common shares. This is because it appears likely that
the Common stock share price will appreciate faster than the Company's ability
to overcome its accumulated deficit. There are currently insufficient
preferred shares remaining for them to trade publicly. The Preferred share's
characteristics are described below:
Holders of preferred shares are entitled to cumulative dividends of 8% per
annum on the stated value of the stock, designated as $7 per share. Holders
of Preferred Stock are entitled to receive cumulative dividends at the annual
rate of $.56 per share, payable semi-annually on September 15 and March 15.
The Company paid dividends of $27,362 for September 15, 1992 and $136,682 for
March 14, 1993. No dividends have been paid since March 15, 1993 resulting in
dividends in arrears of approximately $205,590. The future payment of
dividends on the Preferred Stock is dependent on cash flow from operations and
potential reduction in dividend liability through conversion of preferred
shares for common shares. There may be legal restrictions on the payment of
dividends for periods in which losses are incurred and/or the Company has an
accumulated deficit.
<PAGE>
DIGITRAN SYSTEMS, INCORPORATED AND SUBSIDIARIES
Dividends are not payable on any other class of stock ranking junior to the
preferred stock until the full cumulative dividend requirements of the
preferred stock have been satisfied. The preferred stock carries a
liquidation preference equal to its stated value plus any unpaid dividends.
Subject to certain registration requirements, convertibility of any preferred
stock issued may be exercised at the option of the holder thereof at two
shares of common stock for each preferred share converted. Holders of the
preferred stock are entitled to one tenth of a vote for each share of
preferred stock held. The Company may, at its option, redeem at any time all
shares of the preferred stock or some of them on notice to each holder of
prefered stock at a per share price equal to the stated value ($7.00) plus all
accrued and unpaid dividends thereon (whether or not declared) to the date
fixed for redemption, subject to certain other provisions and requirements.

PART 1 FINANCIAL INFORMATION
ITEM 2 Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition or Plan of
Operations.
Management's Future Plans
Financing
To allow the Company to move foreard, grow and have sufficient liquidity for
future operations, the Company is seeking to restructure its finances as
follows. In the absence of this or a similar refinancing, the Company will
experience cash flow problems on a chronic basis until operations can generate
positive cash flow:
(1) Equity Financing $3,000,000 Minimum
Senior Debt 1,500,000
Line of Credit 500,000
Total $5,000,000
(1) The Company is seeking to sell common stock in a Private
Placement Offering. However, other potential equity
instruments such as a separate class of Preferred Shares is
also possible.
The Use of Proceeds from the financing are described as follows:
Commissions $300,000
Payments for Short Term Debt 500,000
Overdue Payables Key Vendors 500,000
Payment for Long Term Debt 350,000
Product Development 150,000
Increased Marketing Efforts 150,000
Increased Engineering Personnel 150,000
Stock Market Relations 50,000
Working Capital and General Corporate
Purposes to Finance Growth 2,500,000
Total $5,000,000
New Product Development
The Company is developing variations to its larger scale products. As computer
components become increasingly more capable and less expensive, development of
smaller, personal computer-based simulators become more feasible. Also,
mid-sized simulators are being developed for those customers who need
simulated training, but can't afford or don't need, all the features available
on current models.

Results of Operations. Six months ended October 31, 1999 vs 1998
Sales. Sales were adversely affected throughout the year and during this
quarter by the following:
A. Lack of cash resources. The Company could not take advantage of all
potential sales opportunities due to the lack of available resources
at various times throughout the year.
B. Instability in the global economy. The Company saw several
significant potential projects eliminated or deferred by their
customers, due to uncertainties with the customer's currency,
national economy, or other political issues.
C. Drop in Petroleum Industry prices. Softness in the oil industry has
also led to the postponement of several sizeable projects from those
customers.
D. Lack of alternative product offering. Consequently, the Company is
developing smaller and mid-sized products in order to increase its
sales and service market.
Cost of Sales. Cost of sales will appear to be unusually high for the current
period when compared to the previous period. This is because the Company's
management has chosen to report its results from operations in a very
conservative manner. Cost of sales consists of two major expense categories:
(1) Cost of Parts and Components (variable by item sold)
(2) Engineering and Production Labor (fixed by paypaeriod)
Manufacturing overhead is negligible. Consequently, gross mergins will be
adversely affected when sales levels are below the breakeven point. Gross
margins could possibly be negative if sales do not exceed the Company's fixed
commitment to Engineering and Production labor. This change in presentation
is part of a concerted effort by management to simplify its accounting
practice and to eliminate practices that involve or create intangible asets.
Selling, General and Administrative. The company substantially cut all
expenses across the company.
Interest. Interest increased 45% due to paying off debt through the sale of
the Library building.
PART II OTHER INFORMATION. The company on October 12, 1999, entered into an
agreement to sell the crane and truck product lines to Ship Analytics. This
will pay the IRS and certain secure creditors.
