                   NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1.  BASIS OF PRESENTATION

         The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements
have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles
and reflect, in the opinion of management, all adjustments necessary for a fair
presentation of the information contained therein. The condensed consolidated
financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated
financial statements and notes for the year ended September 30, 1996, contained
in the Company's Form 10-K. The results of operations for the three-month period
ended December 31, 1996, are not necessarily indicative of results for the
entire year.

2.   STOCK SUBSCRIPTIONS RECEIVABLE

         The stock subscriptions receivable at December 31, 1996, of $200,000
represent cash received by the Company in February 1997 as partial payment for
stock purchased under a stock purchase agreement that the Company signed on
September 12, 1996. The stock subscription receivable at September 30, 1996, of
$1,149,933 represents cash received by the Company from October 1, 1996, to
December 31, 1996, as part of that same stock purchase agreement. The stock
subscriptions receivable are shown as current assets because the amounts were
received prior to the issuance of the financial statements for each of the
periods ended September 30, 1996 and December 31, 1996.

3.  CASH IN ESCROW

         Cash in escrow represents the Company's contractual share of payment of
a consulting fee made part of a settlement of a lawsuit in 1995, net of legal
fees. The Funds were held in escrow pending settlement of a dispute between the
Company and its former president. On January 14, 1997, the Company reached
settlement with the former president, in which $314,498 was received by the
Company from the funds held in escrow. The amount received by the Company has
been shown as a current asset as of December 31, 1996.

4.  COMMITMENTS

         At December 31, 1996, the Company had a commitment to purchase a column
wrapping machine designated for wrapping columns up to two feet in diameter. The
cost to complete the machine, Robo Jr.(TM), was approximately $231,663.

5.  SHAREHOLDERS' EQUITY

Common Stock:

         During October and November 1996, the Company received $25,000 from
four individuals who exercised warrants to purchase 31,250 restricted shares of
Common Stock at $0.80 per share.

         During the period from October 11, 1996, to December 31, 1996, the
Company received cash in the amount of $1,149,933 from two individuals as part
of subscriptions receivable for 406,998 shares of restricted Common Stock under
Regulation S. The average share price of Common Stock issued to these two
individuals during this period was $2.83.

         In February 1997 the Company received $200,000 as part of a $1,000,000
private placement agreement signed on September 12, 1996. The amount received is
shown as a subscription receivable at December 31, 1996. The average price per
share of the Common Stock issued was $2.75. The remaining funds to be received
under this private placement as of February 14, 1997, are $325,067.

6.  OTHER INCOME

         Other income of $169,498 in fiscal 1997 represents the net effect of
the Company's receipt of payment of a consulting fee from a composite materials
company, less an amount paid to the company's former president in settlement of
a prior dispute with the former president over rights to the consulting fee, and
other matters.

         Other income of $122,820 in fiscal 1996 represents the net effect of
the Company's settlement of a lawsuit in which it claimed breach of contract and
breach of fiduciary relationship against third parties who interfered with
Company's efforts to acquire a composite materials company.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

First Quarter of Fiscal 1997 Compared to First Quarter of 1996

         Revenues of $103,918 were recorded in the fiscal quarter ended December
31, 1996, the first quarter of the Company's 1997 fiscal year, representing a
decrease of $84,082, or 45%, compared with the first quarter of fiscal 1996. The
decrease in revenues was due to decreases in contract work performed under
research grants from the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST)
and the Advanced Research Projects Agency (ARPA) which were used to help
validate the application of the Company's carbon composite jacketing technology
for seismic retrofit. In December The Company began its first seismic retrofit
of bridge columns for the California Department of Transportation (CALTRANS).
The project was completed in January 1997.

         Total operating expenses of $1,104,303 in the first quarter 1997
increased by $466,901, or 73%, over the first quarter of fiscal 1996. The cost
of services of $151,357 represented 146% of contract revenues. Research and
development efforts for the quarter were for the development of new products
over the next two to three year horizon. A substantial portion of the R&D work
continues to be performed under government research contracts and has been
reported as a cost of services. Selling, general and administrative expenses
increased by $414,643, or 81%, to $927,743, as a result of higher marketing and
sales activity as the Company expands its sales and marketing efforts in other
states.

         Interest income during the first quarter decreased to $13,571, compared
to $27,253 in the first quarter of the prior year. Other income is primarily the
result of consulting fees received from a composite materials company (see Note
6, Other Income).

         The net loss for the first quarter of fiscal 1997 of $820,365
represents an increase of $500,478 over the net loss of $319,887 in the first
quarter of 1996. The expansion of the Company's sales and marketing efforts
nationwide to both the public and private sectors was the primary reason for the
higher losses. On a per share basis, the net loss was $0.11 in the first quarter
1997, compared to $0.05 in the first quarter of 1996.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

         During the first quarter of fiscal 1997, the Company incurred losses in
pursuing the commercialization of its composite retrofit business primarily
because of the high level of expense in conducting small demonstration projects
and seminars in Southern California and neighboring states. The Company believes
that the commercialization of the retrofit business throughout the United States
will come from such demonstration projects and seminars, which are expected to
continue to grow throughout 1997. The Company has completed projects and
generated revenue now in both the public and private sectors in two states, Utah
and California. The Company's losses and cash outflows in support of this
strategy for the first quarter 1997 are consistent with its 1997 Operating Plan.

         The sale of Common Stock continues to be the Company's supplemental
source of funds while the Company continues to commercialize its retrofit
business. The Company reported at the beginning of its fiscal year that
approximately $5.5 million in capital will be necessary to sustain operations
and capital equipment purchases throughout the 1997 fiscal year. During the
first quarter ended December 31, 1996, the Company received $1,149,933 from the
sale of 406,998 shares of restricted Common Stock through two private placements
under Regulation S and $25,000 from the exercise of warrants to purchase 31,250
shares of restricted Common Stock. An additional $200,000 was received in
February 1997 as part of the sale of restricted Common Stock under the same
private placements. The Company's cash outflows and net working capital balance
as of December 31, 1996, are consistent with management's 1997 fiscal year
operating plan.
