                          Notes to Financial Statements
                                   (Unaudited)

A)   Name of Business
     ----------------

     Conceptronic, Inc. (the "Company") manufactures and sells equipment used in
the assembly and repair of printed circuit boards.

B)   Basis for Presentation
     ----------------------

     As permitted by the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the
"Commission") applicable to quarterly reports on Form 10-QSB, these notes are
condensed and do not contain all disclosures required by generally accepted
accounting principles. Reference should be made to the financial statements and
related notes included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-KSB for the
year ended December 31, 1995, filed with the Commission on March 29, 1996.

     At December 31, 1995, operating loss carry forwards of approximately
$719,000 were available to offset future taxable income for income tax purposes.

     In the opinion of management of Conceptronic, Inc. (the "Company"), the
accompanying unaudited financial statements contain all adjustments considered
necessary to present fairly the financial position of the Company as of March
31, 1996 and the results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented.
The Company prepares its interim financial information using the same accounting
principles as it does for its annual financial statements.

     The results of operations for the periods presented are not necessarily
indicative of the results to be expected for the full year.

C)   Earnings per Share

     Earnings per share is computed based on the weighted average number of
common shares outstanding adjusted, when dilutive, for the number of shares
issuable upon assumed exercise of stock options after the assumed repurchase of
shares with the related proceeds.

D)   Litigation
     ----------

     On December 13, 1991, the Company was served with a complaint from
Vitronics Corporation ("Vitronics"), one of the Company's competitors, alleging
patent infringement involving its reflow soldering ovens. Vitronics stated that
it sought an injunction, together with unspecified damages and costs. The claim
was filed in the United States Federal District Court, District of New
Hampshire.

     In August 1995, the presiding U.S. District Court judge issued a directed
verdict of non-infringement in Conceptronic's favor regarding method patent
#4,654,502. Additionally, a favorable decision was reached on the apparatus
patent #4,833,301 by a jury which found non-infringement on all past and current
Conceptronic ovens. Vitronic's has appealed the non-infringement finding of
patent #4,654,502.

     In the opinion of counsel, the ultimate outcome of this litigation cannot
presently be determined; however, management of the Company believes the claim
is without merit and that the Company will prevail. Accordingly, no provision
has been made in the accompanying financial statements for any potential
liability that might result.

                               CONCEPTRONIC, INC.

                MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
                       CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

THREE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 1996 COMPARED TO THREE MONTHS ENDED APRIL 2, 1995.

The Company had a net profit of approximately $59,000 for the three months ended
March 31, 1996 compared to $52,000 for the three months ended April 2, 1995.
Profits remained constant, with higher first quarter 1996 gross profits offset
by higher selling costs.

Net sales in the first quarter of 1996 were approximately $3,931,000 compared to
approximately $3,256,000 for the first quarter of 1995, an increase of
approximately 21%. The increase is primarily due to sales of the Company's new
Freedom HGR 2000 series rework station and reflow oven sales to US Robotics, a
large computer modem manufacturer.

Bookings in the first quarter of 1996 were approximately $4,190,000, compared to
approximately $2,818,000 in the first quarter of 1995, an increase of
approximately 49%. Increasing demand for the Freedom HGR 2000 rework station and
the Company's reflow oven products accounts for the bookings increase. Backlog
as of March 31, 1996 was approximately $1,632,000 compared to approximately
$1,810,000 as of April 2, 1995.

Gross profit margin was 29% of sales in the first quarter of 1996 compared to
28% for the first quarter of 1995. Profit margins remain constant, however, the
Company is experiencing increasingly competitive pressures and price erosion in
the Company's oven reflow products.

Selling, general and administrative expenses for the first quarter of 1996 were
$915,000 compared to $713,000 for the first quarter of 1995. The increase was
largely due to product promotion expenditures and the expension of the Company's
sales and service organization.

Research and development expenditures for the first quarter of 1996 were $62,000
compared to $68,000 in the first quarter of 1995. The Company continues to spend
the majority of its development dollars on it's reflow solder oven line and
Freedom series rework stations.

Legal costs for the first quarter of 1996 were $50,000 compared to $68,000 for
the same period in 1995. These costs were incurred in the Company's defense of
the pending patent infringement appeal by Vitronics.

Net interest expense for the first quarter of 1996 was $45,000 compared to
interest expense for the first quarter of 1995 of $23,000. The interest expense
represents the mortgage interest on the Company's manufacturing and office
facility and the Company's credit line. The increase in expense for the first
quarter 1996 compared to 1995 is attributed to increased amounts outstanding
under the credit line due to the need to fund working capital requirements.

This release contains forward-looking statements based on current expectations
that involve a number of risks and uncertainties. The factors that could cause
actual results to differ materially include the following: general economic
conditions and growth rates in the SMT circuit manufacturing industry and
related industries, including but not limited to the printed circuit board
industry; competitive factors and pricing pressures; changes in product mix;
changes in the seasonality of demand patterns; the timely development and
acceptance of new products; inventory risks due to shifts in market demand;
component constraints and shortages; risks of nonpayment of accounts receivable;
ramp up and expansion of manufacturing capacity; and the risks described from
time to time in the Company's SEC reports.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Net cash used for operations for the three months ended March 31, 1996 was
$58,000 compared to net cash provided by operations of $4,000 in the first
quarter of 1995. The change in cash from operations is due to the an increase in
inventories to support on-time reflow oven deliveries and an increasing bookings
rate for the Freedom HGR 2000 rework station. This use of cash flows was offset
by higher vendor trade payables. Net cash used for investing activities in the
first quarter of 1996 was $49,000 compared to $2,000 in the first quarter of
1995, for equipment additions Net cash flows provided by financing activities
was $107,000 for the three months ended March 31, 1996 compared to net cash
flows used in financing activities of $10,000 for the same period in 1995. The
increase reflects proceeds of approximately $117,000 from the Company's working
capital credit line.

The Company has a $1,000,000 demand line of credit with the First National Bank
of Boston of which $962,000 was drawn down as of March 31, 1996.

The Company believes it has sufficient cash flows from operations, cash on hand,
and its credit line to finance its business for the balance of the fiscal year.

        Item 1: Legal Proceedings.

                The Company is involved in the following action:

                1. VITRONICS CORPORATION V. CONCEPTRONIC, INC. On December 13, 
1991, the Company was served with a complaint from Vitronics Corporation 
("Vitronics"), one of the Company's competitors, alleging patent infringement 
involving its reflow soldering ovens. Vitronics stated that it sought an

apparatus patent #4,833,301 by a jury which found non-infringement on all past
and current Conceptronic ovens. Vitronic's has appealed the non-infringement
finding of patent #4,654,502.

                In the opinion of counsel, the ultimate outcome of this
litigation cannot presently be determined; however, management of the Company
believes the claim is without merit and that the Company will prevail.
Accordingly, no provision has been made in the accompanying financial statements
