                      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.

The Company extends credit based on an evaluation of a customer's financial

market.

facility fee of .25%. Borrowings under the facility are collateralized by
substantially all assets of the Company. At December 31, 1999, the Company

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

Zebra with the historical consolidated statement of earnings of CIS for the
year ended December 31, 1999, as if the acquisition occurred on January 1,
1999.

The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements exclude (a)
the effect of any operating income improvements which may be achieved upon
combining the resources of the companies and (b) costs associated with the
integration and consolidation of the companies, which are not currently
