REPORT OF INDEPENDENT AUDITORS
The Board of Directors
and Shareholders
Comtec Information Systems, Inc.
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheet of Comtec
Information Systems, Inc. as of December 31, 1999, and the related
consolidated statements of income, changes in shareholders' equity and cash
flows for the year then ended. These financial statements are the
responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express
an opinion on these financial statements based on our audit.
We conducted our audit in accordance with auditing standards generally
accepted in the United States. Those standards require that we plan and
perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial
statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on
a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial
statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used
and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the
overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audit provides
a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in
all material respects, the consolidated financial position of Comtec
Information Systems, Inc. as of December 31, 1999, and the consolidated
results of its operations and its cash flows for the year then ended in
conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States.

1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
NATURE OF BUSINESS
Comtec Information Systems, Inc. (the Company) is engaged in the design,
marketing and manufacture of data processing, automatic identification, and
printing systems.
PRINCIPLES OF CONSOLIDATION
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company,
its 100%-owned subsidiary, Comtec Information Systems Limited, and its
79%-owned subsidiary, Comtec B.V.; the remaining 21% ownership is held by
shareholders of the Company. Significant intercompany accounts and
transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
USE OF ESTIMATES
The preparation of the financial statements in conformity with generally
accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and
assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and
accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
FOREIGN CURRENCY TRANSLATION Assets and liabilities of operations outside the
United States are translated into United States dollars using current
exchange rates; revenue and expense items are translated into United States
dollars using a weighted average exchange rate for the period. The gains and
losses resulting from such translation are accumulated as a separate
component of shareholders' equity, whereas gains and losses resulting from
foreign currency transactions generally are included in results of operations.

<PAGE>
1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)
REVENUE RECOGNITION
The Company recognizes revenues from product sales upon shipment, and from
service revenue as it is earned.
CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS
For purposes of statement of cash flows, the Company considers cash held in
banks and highly-liquid investments with an original maturity of three months
or less to be cash equivalents.
INVENTORIES
The Company records inventory at the lower of cost or market using the FIFO
(first-in, first-out) method.
The components of inventory at December 31, are as follows:
<TABLE>

Work-in-process 1,498,416
Finished goods 809,241
-----------
$ 7,023,448
===========
</TABLE>
MARKETABLE SECURITIES
The Company classifies its marketable securities as held-to-maturity, trading
or available-for-sale at the time of purchase and reevaluates such
designation as of each balance sheet date. The Company has classified holdings
at December 31, 1999, as held-to-maturity securities, which are carried at
amortized cost.
At December 31, 1999, held-to-maturity securities consisted of the following:

<PAGE>
PROPERTY, PLANT AND EQUIPMENT
Property, plant and equipment is stated at cost. All fixed assets are
depreciated using an accelerated or straight-line method over the estimated
useful lives of the assets (the lesser of the estimated useful life or the
lease term for assets held under capitalized lease obligations).
DEFERRED REVENUE
Deferred revenue represents advance payments on service contracts which are
recognized as revenue over the period of the contract and hardware purchase
orders which are recognized as the order is filled.
INCOME TAXES
The Company is an S Corporation as defined in the Internal Revenue Code.
Accordingly, no federal or state income taxes are provided since the
Company's income is included in the shareholders' individual income tax
returns on a pro rata basis.
2. ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE
Accounts receivable are primarily from major retailers in the United States.
The Company extends credit based on an evaluation of a customer's financial
position and generally does not require collateral. The allowance for
doubtful accounts is determined based on management's evaluation of the
collectibility of individual receivables and the financial condition of the
market.
For the year ended December 31, 1999, approximately 55% of the Company's
sales were to five customers. At December 31, 1999, approximately 56% of the
Company's receivables were with three customers.
3. PROPERTY, PLANT AND EQUIPMENT
Property, plant and equipment at December 31, 1999, consists of the following:
<TABLE>
<S> <C>
Land and building $ 3,488,262
Machinery and equipment 4,214,732
Furniture and fixtures 10,730
-----------
$ 7,713,724
===========
</TABLE>
4. NOTE PAYABLE
During 1998, the Company paid, to a related party, $1,000,000 in the form of
a five-year note, for rights to a partially developed proprietary process.
The note bears interest at a rate of 7.42% per annum and is payable in sixty
equal monthly installments of $20,000, commencing July 31, 1998 through
June 30, 2003.
Maturities of long-term debt in the years ending December 31, 2000 through
2003 are approximately $192,000, $207,000, $222,000 and $115,000, respectively.
5. LINE-OF-CREDIT FACILITY
On May 31, 1997, the Company amended its $4,000,000 revolving line of credit,
dated March 4, 1994, with interest at prime plus .5% payable to Fleet
National Bank expiring on May 31, 2000. The facility provides for an unused
facility fee of .25%. Borrowings under the facility are collateralized by
substantially all assets of the Company. At December 31, 1999, the Company
had no borrowings under this agreement. The facility contains certain
restrictive covenants which require the maintenance of tangible net worth of
at least $8,000,000, debt to net worth of less than 1.75 to 1, and a debt
coverage ratio of at least 2 to 1 for the term of the facility on a combined
basis for Comtec and CRE Corporation (a related party through a group of
shareholders who own Comtec and CRE).
6. SHAREHOLDERS' EQUITY
The Company has two classes of Common Stock, Class A Common Stock (Class A)
and Class B Common Stock (Class B). The designations, powers, preferences and
rights of Class A and Class B stock are identical except that Class A is
voting and Class B is nonvoting Common Stock.

<PAGE>
7. COMMITMENTS
The Company has several noncancelable operating leases for printing presses
and labeling equipment that expire at various dates over the next four years.
In March 1994, Comtec entered into a lease agreement for its operating
facility at 30 Plan Way, Warwick, Rhode Island with CRE, whereby Comtec
leased from CRE assets which CRE had leased from the State of Rhode Island.
The term of the lease is 20 years and will expire on March 2014. CRE's lease
is collateralized by a bank letter of credit and the assets under the lease
agreement. Comtec has also guaranteed the lease with the State of Rhode
Island, which issued revenue bonds to finance the acquisition. The lease
contains certain restrictive covenants similar to those described in Note 5.
The lease contains certain restrictive covenants similar to those described
in Note 5. The lease contains certain escalation provisions.
The lease is a capital lease for financial reporting purposes and is included
in fixed assets as follows:

substantially all employees. Participants are allowed to contribute a
percentage of their annual compensation to the Plan and the Company, at its
discretion, matches a percentage of that contribution. The Company's

9. YEAR 2000 (UNAUDITED)

computer systems or other critically dependent equipment. In the opinion of
management, the total costs of addressing the Year 2000 issue did not have a
material impact on the Company's financial position or results of operations.
