Note 5    Per share data is computed based upon the weighted average number of
          shares of common stock, adjusted for the conversion of dilutive common
          stock equivalents. The primary earnings per share and the related
          common stock and equivalents are presented. The fully dilutive
          earnings per share data is not shown since the dilution is not
          material.


Note 6    On March 18, 1996 the Company entered into a ten year lease agreement
          for a new Corporate Headquarters and Manufacturing facility. In June
          1996 the lease was amended to increase the size of the new facility
          from 60,000 square feet to 78,000 square feet. The minimum payments
          are $6,209,480 over the ten year term. Management currently
          anticipates moving into the new building by the end of 1996.

              -------------------------------------------------
                     Condition and Results of Operations
                     -----------------------------------


Financial Position, Liquidity and Capital Requirements
- ------------------------------------------------------

The Company's cash requirements are currently being met through internal cash
flows and existing bank financing.

In May 1996, the Company established a new banking relationship with a local
commercial bank and terminated its relationship with its prior bank.  The
Company repaid its prior bank's term loan and the outstanding balance on its
line of credit from a new credit facility provided by the Company's new bank.
The new credit facility is for a $1,400,000 term loan and a $4,000,000 revolving
line of credit.  This increases the Company's lines of credit from $1,500,000 to
$4,000,000.  The rate of interest for both the term loan and revolving line of
credit are based on current Libor rates.  The term loan contains an option to
convert to a fixed rate.

Operating activities utilized $537,000 in cash flows for the nine month period
ending August 31, 1996 while $92,000 was generated in the comparable period in
1995. Approximately $2,626,000 of net cash was generated from net income plus
non-cash depreciation and amortization and deferred taxes during the fiscal 1996
period. This was primarily offset by a $692,000 increase in accounts receivable,
$410,000 increase in inventories and a $2,110,000 use of cash to decrease
accounts payable, payment of accrued bonuses and related taxes, and the legal
settlement with its prior law firm related to the unintended tax consequences to
the Company's executive stock purchase agreements.
 
Net cash used in investing activities for the nine month period ending August
31, 1996 was $1,077,000 primarily for capital expenditures to sustain the
Company's growth and expanding Research and Development group.  The increase is
due to the purchase of capital equipment for the manufacturing operations, field
service and the engineering new product development group.  Also, new computer
equipment was needed due to the expansion of the engineering new product
development group.

For the nine months ended August 31, 1996, approximately $773,000 of cash was
provided by the increase in net borrowings resulting from bank financing as
noted above. There was a $153,000 increase in capital resulting from the
exercise of employee stock options.

In March 1996, the Company signed a lease agreement for a new 60,000 square foot
Corporate Headquarters and manufacturing facility. In June 1996, the Company
agreed to increase the size of the new facility from 60,000 to 78,000 square
feet based on the signing of a major contract with a leading semiconductor
equipment manufacturer of plasma etch systems. The Company projects the building
will be completed by the end of 1996.

The Company requires capital for research and development, inventories and
funding for capital expenditures related to the new facility.  Management of the
Company believes that based on its current available bank credit facility,
coupled with working capital generated by operations, it has sufficient funding
to meet the Company's capital requirements for the immediate future.

                             RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
                                        
Net sales for the nine months ended August 31, 1996 increased 44% as compared to
the same period in fiscal 1995. For the three months ending August 31, 1996, net
sales increased by 17% over the comparable period of the prior year.  The
increase is the result of continued growth in sales to semiconductor capital
equipment manufacturers which represented 68% and 66% of the Company's sales for
the comparable nine month periods of fiscal 1996 and 1995, respectively. The
Company's sales this year, in the semiconductor market, increased 48% over the
comparable nine month period last year.  The Company has generated significant
sales increases from Lam Research, Applied Materials, Plasma Materials and
Technology, Alcatel and Mattson Technology. Third quarter net income was
affected by the sharp slowdown in semiconductor demand evident throughout the
industry.  As a supplier of RF power systems to the major manufacturers of
semiconductor manufacturing equipment, the Company began to feel this slowdown
in the middle of the third quarter.

Cost of products sold amounted to 62% and 60% of sales for the nine month
periods and 65% and 60% for the three month periods ending August 31, 1996 and
August 31, 1995, respectively.  Cost of products sold was affected by the change
in product mix and under absorbed overhead costs due to the slowdown in
business.

Research and development expenses were 10% and 9% of sales for the nine month
periods and 11% and 8% for the three month periods ending August 31, 1996 and
August 31, 1995 respectively. Research and development expenses increased 63% to
$2,621,000 compared to $1,605,000 last year. The increase is the result of
additional engineering new product development staff and their related costs.

Selling and administrative expenses rose approximately $1,024,000 for the nine
month period and $409,000 for the three month period ending August 31,1996,
respectively, as compared to the comparable period in 1995, excluding a $957,600
non-cash compensation charge last year. However, as a percent of sales, selling
and administrative expenses decreased from 17% to 16% for the nine month period
and increased from 15% to 17% for the three month period ending August 31, 1995
to 1996, respectively. The increase is primarily due to professional fees
related to a medical joint venture that the Company is pursuing and an
unsuccessful secondary offering due to a downturn in market conditions.

The Company's effective tax rate was 39% and 37% for the nine month periods and
43% and 38% for the three month periods ending August 31, 1996 and 1995,
respectively.  Fiscal year 1995's effective tax rate excludes the non cash
compensation charge to reflect comparable figures.  The major difference is the
increase in state taxes and the reduction of the research and development tax
credit in fiscal year 1996, due to a recent change in the tax laws.
