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

Results of Operations

Net sales (gross sales less returns and  allowances)  for the three month period
ended September 30, 1997 increased to $435,951 from $286,190 for the three month
period ended September 30, 1996, an increase of  approximately  52%. The backlog
of unshipped orders at September 30, 1997 was approximately $207,000.

Gross margins continue to improve to approximately 27% in the three month period
ended  September 30, 1997, as compared to  approximately  22% in the three month
period  ended  September  30,  1996.  These  changes  reflect  the impact of the
increased sales of other new higher margin products as well as continued efforts
to achieve the best possible purchase price for inventory items.

Selling and marketing expenses and general and administrative expenses decreased
slightly  (1%)to  $625,030 for the three months  ended  September  30, 1997 from
$630,960 for the three months ended  September 30, 1996 reflecting the effort of
the Company to manage its overhead  expense level to achieve more efficiency and
profitability.

At June 30, 1997,  management  determined that its Sports Training Systems (STS)
operations should be classified as a discontinued operation.  (See Note 2 to the
consolidated  financial  statements  included in the Company's  annual report on
Form 10-KSB at June 30, 1997). Management's decision to cease operations was the
result of an alleged  breach of  contract by  Biosports,  LLC,  the  licensor of
certain  motion capture  technology  that STS intended to develop and market for
golf and other  applications.  The loss from discontinued  operations  decreased
from  $253,478 for the three months ended  September 30, 1996 to $70,637 for the
three months ended September 30, 1997 as the Company  continued to shut down the
operations.  Expenses  for the three  months  ended  September  30,  1997 relate
primarily to amortization of certain assets and legal costs.

The  Company  reduced  its net loss to  $575,202  ($.16 per share) for the three
month  period  ended  September  30, 1997 from a net loss of $783,766  ($.26 per
share) for the three month period ended September 30, 1996. The net loss and net
loss per share  amounts  primarily  reflect  the  increased  gross  margins  and
reduction of STS expenses.


Liquidity and Sources of Capital

At September  30, 1997,  the Company had working  capital of $90,923,  including
$145,666 of cash and cash equivalents. The Company had a negative cash flow from
operations of $107,363 for the three month period ended September 30, 1997 and a
negative cash flow from  operations of $659,388 for the three month period ended
September  30, 1996.  The  reduction in the negative  cash flow from  operations
reflects the increased gross margins and reduced  expenses  discussed above. The
Company has also  accumulated a significant  deficit  during the period of fully
developing  its  product  lines and  requires  additional  financing  to achieve
profitable  operations.  These  conditions  raise  substantial  doubt  about the
Company's  ability  to  continue  as a  going  concern.  Management  is  seeking
additional  funds through  private  financings in order to continue  operations.
There can be no assurance that any such financings can be accomplished.
