(1) In the opinion of the Company, the accompanying unaudited financial
statements contain all adjustments (consisting of only normal recurring
accruals) necessary to present fairly the financial position of the Company as
of June 30,1996 and December 31, 1995 and the results of its operations for the
three and six month periods ended June 30, 1996 and changes in cash flows for
the six months ended June 30, 1996 and 1995.
(2) The accounting policies followed by the Company are set forth in Note 1 to
the Company's financial statements in the December 31, 1995 Form 10-K.
(3) The results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 1996
and 1995 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the
full year.
(4) Loss Per Share - Loss per share is computed by dividing the net loss for the
period by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding. For purposes
of computing weighted average number of common shares outstanding the Company
has common stock equivalents consisting of stock options and warrants and Series
"A" Preferred Convertible Stock. The Series "A" Preferred Stock was deemed to be
a common stock equivalent when issued. The common stock equivalents are assumed
converted to common stock, when dilutive. During periods of operations in which
losses were incurred, common stock equivalents were excluded from the weighted
average number of common shares outstanding because their inclusion would be
anti-dilutive.
(5) Industry Segments:
The Company currently classifies its operations into eight business segments:
(i) Contract Engineering Services consists of subsidiaries that provide
engineers, designers and technical personnel on a temporary basis pursuant to
contracts with major corporations; (ii) Medical Diagnostics consists of a

(8) Reverse Merger:
On May 8, 1995 SIS Capital Corp. ("SISC"), a wholly-owned subsidiary of the
Company, transferred all of its equity ownership in Trans Global Services, Inc.
("Trans Global") to Concept Technologies Group, Inc. ("Concept"), pursuant to an
agreement dated as of March 31, 1995, among SISC, DLB, Inc. ("DLB"), Joseph G.
Sicinski and Concept in exchange for a controlling interest in Concept.
Concept's common stock and warrants are traded on the Nasdaq SmallCap Market.

Sicinski (3.4%). DLB is owned by Ms. Carol Schiller, wife of Mr. Lewis S.
Schiller, the Company's chairman of the board, president and chief executive
officer. Mr. Schiller disclaims all beneficial interest in the securities owned
by DLB. The acquisition by Concept of the Trans Global stock in exchange for
Concept's capital stock is referred to as the "Trans Global Transaction".
Pursuant to the Trans Global Transaction:
(i) - Warrants to purchase an aggregate of 500,000 shares of Trans Global
common stock held by SISC (475,000 shares) and DLB (25,000 shares) were
exchanged for Series B Common Stock Purchase Warrants ("Series B Warrants") to
purchase an aggregate of 500,000 shares of Common Stock until May 5, 1997.
(ii) - Concept issued to SISC 850,000 shares of Common Stock, Series B
Warrants to purchase 475,000 shares of Common Stock at $3.50 per share, 23,750
shares of Series A Preferred Stock, which will be converted into 1,900,000
shares of Common Stock upon the filing of the Certificate of Amendment, 23,750
shares of each of Series B and C Preferred Stock, which are convertible into an
aggregate of 2,375,000 shares of Common Stock if certain levels of income before
income tax are met, and 25,000 shares of Concept's Series D Preferred Stock,
which is not convertible and which has a redemption price of

(8) Reverse Merger (continued):
approximately $1,700. SISC has deferred taking the physical delivery of 400,000
of the shares of Common Stock issuable in order to provide Concept with
flexibility in issuing shares of Common Stock.
(iii) - Concept issued to DLB in respect of its Trans Global stock and
warrants, 50,000 shares of Common Stock, Series B Warrants to purchase 25,000
shares of Common Stock, 1,250 shares of Series A Preferred Stock, which are
convertible into 100,000 shares of Common Stock upon the filing of the
Certificate of Amendment, and 1,250 shares of each of Series B and C Preferred
Stock, which are convertible into an aggregate of 125,000 shares of Common Stock
if certain levels of income before income taxes are attained.
(iv) - Concept issued to Mr. Sicinski, 100,000 shares of Common Stock.
As a result of the Trans Global Transaction, SISC owned, at the closing,
approximately 32.2% of the outstanding Common Stock, and 59.3% of the voting
rights on all matters, including the election of directors, except where the
holders of Common Stock are required by law to vote as a single class. Upon the
filing of the Certificate of Amendment, based on outstanding Common Stock as of
the closing date, SISC would own 59.3% of the outstanding Common Stock.

Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and
Results of Operations (dollars in 000's)
FINANCIAL CONDITION
LIQUIDITY:
As of December 31, 1995, it was determined that the ability of the Company to
continue as a going concern was dependent upon the success of the Company's
subsidiary's marketing efforts and their efforts to obtain sufficient funding to
enable them to continue operations. Management believes that the Company has
made progress in achieving these goals during the quarter based on the
following:
Improved Operating Results:
The Company has a significant reduction in loss for six of the segments for the
three months June 30, 1996 and five of the segments for the six months June 30,
1996 compared to 1995 and also shows a significant reduction in corporate and
other expenses. On an overall basis, the net loss for the three months June 30,
1996 was $1,406 less than in 1995 and for the six months June 30, 1996, which
includes $2,229 of noncash expense related to a subsidiaries issuance of stock
options and stock purchase warrants in the medical information services segment,
was $1,703 less than in 1995.
Debt Refinancing:
In January 1996, the Company refinanced a significant portion of the current
subordinated debt that was to be paid by the Medical Diagnostics segment in
1996. Such financing consisted of a term loan of $2,000, a revolver loan of
$6,000 and the extension of approximately $6,300 of subordinated debt balloon
payments from a 1996 due date to a 2002 due date. At the time of the
refinancing, the effect was a reduction of current debt of approximately $8,363.
Improved Working Capital Condition:
As of December 31, 1995, the Company had a working capital deficit of $13,360.
As of June 30, 1996, this working capital deficit has been reduced to $2,092, in
large part to the aforementioned debt refinancing. The Company's continued
ability to reduce the working capital deficit relies primarily on the success of
continuing efforts to increase the profitability of the underlying subsidiaries
and a proposed additional refinancing of current subordinated debt which would
result in a shift of $4,000 of current debt, due in September 1996, to notes
with a five year amortization period in the Medical Diagnostics segment. As
further explained in the following "Sources of Cash" discussion, restrictions
exist with regards to the Company's use of the Medical Diagnostics segment's
cash.
Equity Offerings:
During August 1996, NetSmart, a subsidiary of the Company operating in the
Medical Information Services segment, completed an initial public offering
issuing common shares representing approximately 22% of the outstanding shares
and expects to receive net proceeds of approximately $4,500. In July 1996 a
subsidiary

FINANCIAL CONDITION:
LIQUIDITY (continued):
CAPITAL RESOURCES:
operating in the contract engineering services segment (which is already
publicly held), raised $2,000 from the sale of common stock (note 11 to the
consolidated financial statements). This segment is currently in negotiations
with respect to an additional financing, however, no assurance can be given that
the segment will be successful in obtaining such financing.
Sources of Cash:
The Company's principal working capital consists of cash and cash equivalents.
Cash and cash equivalents were $2,637 at June 30, 1996 compared to $1,636 at
December 31, 1995. During the six months ended June 30, 1996, the Company's
operations generated $2,915 of cash from operations of which the medical
diagnostics segment company, International Magnetic Imaging, ("IMI") generated
approximately $3,822 from operations while the remaining segments used
approximately $907 in operations. Pursuant to an IMI financing agreement with a
creditor, restrictions exist on the distributions of IMI funds whereby IMI may
not make payments out of the ordinary course of IMI operations and specifically,
not to the parent company, (Consolidated), or any subsidiary or affiliate. The
other segments are thereby required to operate on their own cash flows and as of
June 30, 1996 the most significant impact from these restrictions is on the
Three Dimensional Products and Services segment which is currently unable to
operate without cash infusions from the parent company, (Consolidated). It is
imperative that this segment obtain alternative sources of funding (i.e. equity
offerings, creditor financing) or increased volume at higher operating margins,
in order to continue as an operating segment. The remaining segments were
relatively unaffected by the restrictions on IMI's cash since they operated
substantially with their own cash flows. Other significant sources of cash
includes proceeds from the issuance of long-term debt of $9,777, proceeds from
the issuance of stock of $1,288, collections on repayments of notes receivable
of $2,078 and proceeds from the sale of marketable securities of $854.
Uses of Cash:
Uses of cash includes the repayment of long-term and subordinated debt of
$9,052, capital expenditures of $1,459, payments on capital leases of $675,
advances on notes receivables of $2,176, net repayments to factors of $1,512,
purchases of investments of $550 and expenditures of $280 for software
development. Other net sources and uses of cash amounted to $207.
Changes in Other Working Capital Assets and Liabilities:
The other significant changes in working capital includes an increase in
accounts receivable of $3,206 (primarily from an increase in sales volume in the
Medical Diagnostics segment) and an increase in accounts payable and accrued
expenses and accrued payroll and related expenses of approximately $3,448
(primarily from an increase in payroll and payroll related obligations of the
contract engineering services segment).

<PAGE>
Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and
Results of Operations (dollars in 000's)
FINANCIAL CONDITION:
CAPITAL RESOURCES (continued):
Effect of Loan Defaults:
The Company is in default on loans approximating $1,000 as of June 30, 1996 in
the Medical Services and Audio/Visual Services segments. Such defaults have not
had, and are not expected to have a significant impact on the operations of the
related segments.
The creditors have not called such loans and are working under extended
repayment terms.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS:
Consolidated operating income (losses) for the three months June 30, 1996
improved by $774 from an operating loss of $413 for the 1995 quarter to
operating income of $361 for the 1996 quarter. The operating loss for the six
months June 30, 1996 decreased by $79 from $1,726 for 1995 compared to $1,647
for 1996. The six months June 30, 1996 includes $2,229 of noncash expenses
related to a subsidiaries issuance of stock options and stock purchase warrants
in the medical information services segment. Excluding, the noncash expenses in
the medical information services segment, the overall improvement in operating
results was achieved by an increase in overall gross margins of $923 while
operating expenses remained relatively level for the three months June 30, 1996
and an increase in overall gross margins of $$1,653 and a reduction in operating
costs of $655 for the six months June 30, 1996. Such advances in profitability
were achieved while revenues remained relatively level for the three months June
30, 1996 and decreased by $1,771 for the six months June 30, 1996. The decrease
in revenues is attributed to the contract engineering services segment which on
January 1, 1996 lost a contract with one of its significant customers. By the
end of the six months June 30, 1996, the segment had recovered its revenues such
that the annual rate of revenue was substantially the same as prior to the loss
of the contract. On an overall basis, the consolidated net loss for the three
and six months June 30, 1996 compared to 1995 decreased by $1,406 or 82% and
$1,703 or 42%, respectively.
The percentage of relative contribution to revenues, gross profit, and selling
general and administrative expenses by industry segment is shown in the
following tables. Changes within the individual industry segments themselves is
discussed further within the respective industry segment discussions.

Discussion of Operations by Segment:
Contract Engineering Services - This segment is engaged in the business of
providing engineers, designers and technical personnel on a temporary basis to
major corporations. Comparing 1996 to 1995, revenues decreased 3% and 14%,
respectively, for the three and six month periods while gross margins increased
15% and 22%, respectively, for the three and six month periods. The decrease in
revenues is attributed to the loss of a contract on January 1, 1996, from one of
the segment's significant customers. By the end of the six months June 30, 1996,
the segment had recovered its revenues such that the annual rate of revenue was
substantially the same as prior to the loss of the contract. The increase in the
gross margin is due to the fact that the remaining customers, as well as the
newly acquired customers, generated higher margins than the significant customer
that was lost. Selling, general and administrative expenses increased 34% and
27%. This increase primarily resulted from $250 in accrued penalties on late
payroll tax withholding obligations for each of the quarters ended March 31,
1996 and June 30, 1996 and $80 of noncash expenses associated with the issuance
of stock for consulting services during the six months June 30, 1996. Other
income and expense items decreased 70% for both the three and six months as a
result of lower interest expense from more favorable financing terms than those
that existed in the prior periods. Overall, this increased net income by $217
for the three months June 30, 1996 and decreased the net loss by $467 for the
six months June 30, 1996. Management believes that this segment can continue to
generate profits by continuing to increase its revenues and increasing its gross
margins. Profitability is dependent upon its ability to obtain equity
financings. In July 1996, this segment raised $2,000 from the sale of common
stock current. This segment is currently in negotiations with respect to an
24
<PAGE>
Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results
of Operations (dollars in 000's) RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (continued):
additional financing, however, no assurance can be given that the segment will
be successful in obtaining such financing, and the failure to obtain necessary
financing could have a materiel adverse effect upon the segment.
Medical Diagnostics - This segment is engaged in the business of performing MRI
and other diagnostic modality procedures in the health industry. Comparing 1996
to 1995 revenues increased 8% and 12% for the respective three and six month
periods, while gross margins increased 12% and 13% for the respective three and
six month periods. The increase in revenues is due to increases in scan
procedure volume which was partially offset by decreasing reimbursement rates.
Selling, general and administrative expenses increased 12% and 13% for the
respective three and six month periods. During the three months June 30, 1996,
this segment increased its staffing in order to have certain centers remain open
seven days a week instead of six days a week accounting for $200 of the
increase. The remaining increase for the three month comparative period is due
to additional equipment leasing of $150 that did not exist in the 1995
comparative period. The increase for the six month comparative period is due
primarily to the additional equipment leasing of $282 that did not exist in the
1995 comparative period. Other income and expense items (consisting primarily of
interest expense) remained relatively level for the three and six months ended
June 30, 1996. Net income for the three months ended June 30, 1996 remained
relatively level with the comparative period. Net income for the six months June
30, 1996 increased by 25% due wholly to increases in the first quarter activity
whereby revenues and gross margins increased while operating costs remained
relatively level. Typically, this segment has its greatest revenue activity in
the first quarter and management anticipated that revenues and gross margin in
the second quarter of 1996 would be moderately less, which is consistent with
the past performance of this segment. Management anticipates that the operating
results of this segment for the third quarter of 1996 will remain level with the
second quarter and the fourth quarter of 1996 will show a moderate increase.
Electro-Mechanical and Electro-Optical Products Manufacturing - This segment
consists of three companies, Sequential Electronic Systems, ("Sequential"),
which manufactures optical encoders, encoded motors and limit programmers,
S-Tech, which manufactures debit card vending machines and various avionics
instrumentation devices and Televend which markets telephone debit cards and
certain products manufactured by S-Tech. Comparing 1996 and 1995, revenues
decreased 41% for the three months June 30, 1996 and remained relatively level
for the six months June 30, 1996, while gross profit increased by 189% and 151%
for the three and six months June 30, 1996, respectively. The significant
decrease in revenues is attributed to lower levels of shipments to existing
customers while new customers have not been obtained to replace the lost
revenues. Gross margins went from 4% to 20% of revenues for the three month
comparative period and went from (12%) to 5% for the comparative six month
period which is due to the fact that the gross margins on current period
contracts have higher margins than on revenues that were lost. Selling, general
and administrative expenses decreased 28% which was the result of planned
cutbacks in such costs. Net losses increased from $4 for 1995 to $171 for 1996,
which again is primarily attributed to the decrease to government sector sales.
Management has placed more emphasis on sales to the private sector through the
marketing of the debit card vending machines and the
25
<PAGE>
Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results
of Operations (dollars in 000's) RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (continued):
debit card marketing efforts via agreements between distributors and Televend.
Management anticipates that revenues and profitability will improve in the
remaining quarters of 1996 if the proper financing is obtained, but is currently
unable to estimate the amount of such improvement.
Medical Information Services - This segment is engaged in developing, marketing
and supporting computer software designed to enable health service as well as
financial related organizations to provide a range of services in a network
computing environment. This segment has developed proprietary network technology
utilizing smart cards in financial network systems. Comparing 1996 to 1995, both
revenues and gross margins increased 24% and 48% for the three and six month
comparative periods, while selling, general and administrative expenses
decreased 12% for the three month comparative period and increased 108% for the
six month comparative period. The significant increase in selling, general and
administrative expenses for the six month comparative period was due to a
noncash expense resulting from a noncash expense of $2,229 related to the
issuance of stock options and stock purchase warrants. During the prior periods
this segment had relied primarily on revenues of previously existing customers
and software programs and services. During 1996, the segment has increased its
revenues and gross margins through contracts with new customers using the new
technologies that it has spent significant amounts of money in the past
developing. These positive developments were more than offset by the noncash
expense from the previously mentioned stock options and stock purchase warrants
which resulted in operating losses of $1,861 for the six months June 30, 1996
compared to operating losses of $663 for the six months 1995. For the three
months comparative period, operating income improved by $208. An increase in
interest expense of $44 and $127 for the three and six month comparative period
was incurred due to additional debt, of which $500 was incurred during 1996.
During August 1996, NetSmart, a subsidiary of the Company operating in the
Medical Information Services segment, completed an initial public offering
selling common shares representing approximately 22% of the outstanding shares
and receiving net proceeds of approximately $4,500. Management estimates
continued improvement in this segment's operating results in the future quarters
of 1996.
Telecommunications - This segment is engaged in the business of marketing a wide
range of telecommunications services including the resale of local exchange
services through Competitive Access Providers ("CAP", the design and
installation of end- user networks in addition to its newly formed debit card
services and domestic and international long distance services. Comparing 1996
to 1995, revenues increased 44% and 60% for the respective three and six month
periods while gross margins increased 61% and 31%. Comparing 1996 to 1995,
selling, general and administrative expenses increased 17% and 16% for the
respective three and six month periods. During 1996, this segment continued to
grow its market share by pricing its retail services more competitively and
incurred certain promotional costs that are estimated to be of a non-recurring
nature. On an overall basis, the increased gross margins of this segment offset
increased operational expense increases such that the net losses for both the
comparative periods remained relatively level. The telecommunications segment
operates in a highly competitive industry and management believes that in order
for this segment to become profitable, it will have to distinguish itself from
other telecommunications service companies. Additionally, this segment needs to
significantly increase its
26

Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results
of Operations (dollars in 000's) RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (continued):
volume at higher margins in order to cover its operating costs. This segment
currently has a backlog of approximately $4,000, and management estimates that
revenues will increase throughout the remainder of the year, and if operating
costs are maintained at the current level, this segment could break-even during
the fourth quarter.
Three Dimensional Products and Services - This segment is engaged in the
business of developing and marketing products and services in the three
dimensional imaging and digitizing technology which the segment categorizes in
three primary market groups: 1) surfacer imaging products, 2) CAD/CAM software
products and services and 3) laser scanning products. Comparing the three months
June 30, 1996 to 1995, revenues decreased 65% while gross margins increased
marginally. Comparing the six months June 30, 1996 to 1995, revenues and gross
margins decreased 56% and 17%, respectively. The primary reason for such
decreases is due to the closure of one of the companies operating in this
segment which produced revenues and gross margins for the three months 1995 of
$247 and $78, respectively and for the six months ended June 30, 1995, $431 and
$44, respectively. Additionally, in July 1996, this segment significantly
reduced its operations in Europe and sold certain assets resulting in a one time
gain of approximately $450, which is included in other income. The decision to
close such operations was based on the fact that such companies operations did
not align with the planned future for this segment and was not producing margins
at a level sufficient to cover its operating costs. Selling, general and
administrative expenses remained relatively level, however, the 1996 expenses
includes $192 in noncash expense for the write-off of goodwill that could not be
supported by the segment's current cash flow under generally accepted accounting
principles. Excluding the goodwill write-off in the first quarter of 1996,
ongoing expenses decreased approximately $246 for the six months June 30, 1996
because of planned expense cut backs as well as a decrease in product
development costs. On an overall basis, the net loss for the three months June
30, 1996 was $25, a decrease of $447 from the 1995 comparative period. The net
loss for the six months June 30, 1996 was $243, a decrease of $645 from the 1995
comparative period. Management currently anticipates that revenues and operating
profits will significantly improve for this segment if the proper financing can
be obtained which would allow this segment to acquire a European partner to
market and expand its existing product lines. However, no assurances can be made
that such financing will be obtained and the ultimate profitability of this
segment is significantly dependent on the success of such acquisition.
Audio Visual Manufacturing and Services - This segment is engaged in the
business of manufacturing and marketing a professional line of loudspeakers.
This segment was acquired during the second quarter of 1995 and therefore there
is no comparable period for the six months June 30, 1995. During the three
months June 30, 1996 comparative period this segments revenues and gross margin
increased 15% and 45%. Such increases are due primarily to a an increase in
European and Far Eastern sales which was complimented with a reduction in per
unit manufacturing costs. Selling, general and administrative costs for the
three months June 30, 1996 comparative period remained relatively level as did
other income and expense items. For the six month period June 30, 1996, this
segment generated $1,605 in revenues of which $1,266 were from domestic sales
and $339 were from European and Far East sales. During the same period, gross
margins were $358 or 22% of revenues
27
<PAGE>
Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results
of Operations (dollars in 000's) RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (continued):
compared to 10% for the time period from acquisition in the second quarter of
1995 through December 31, 1995. This increase in gross margin percentage is due
primarily to increased sales volume which reduced the idle capacity related to
the manufacturing process. This segment continually evaluates and improves its
product line and management believes that if this segment is able to find an
appropriate financing package, it will be able to significantly increase its
revenues and overall profitability during 1996.
Business Consulting Services operations were not significant for 1996 or 1995
and management anticipates that consulting revenues and related expenses will
not be a significant portion of the Company's future operations in the near
term.
Corporate and Other selling, general and administrative expenses for the three
and six month June 30, 1996 comparative periods decreased 43% and 47%,
respectively. Such decrease is due primarily to noncash expense from the
exercise of stock options for payment of consulting services which amounted to
$740 and $1,265, respectively for the three and six months June 30, 1995.
Included in selling, general and administrative expenses for the six months June
30, 1996 was approximately $80 in a bonus paid to the Company's Chief Financial
Officer as a part of renegotiating the subordinated debt of the Medical
Diagnostics segment. Corporate and other selling, general and administrative
expense, other than that related to the exercise of stock options remained
relatively level and it is currently anticipated that such costs will remain
level throughout 1996. However, in the event that the Company negotiates
additional acquisitions, such costs would increase accordingly.
Discussion of Other Significant Financial Line Items
Interest Expense for 1996 remained relatively level compared to 1995. The
Company's debt financing activity during 1996 was primarily refinancing activity
which extended current debt to long-term and from a rate of 7% to 11%. The
increase in interest expense from the higher rate was offset by principal
payments on other debt.
Gains and (Losses) on Investment Securities - During 1996 the Company's reported
a gain on investment purchasing and sales activity of $138 and $175 for the
respective three and six months ended June 30, 1996 and a loss on such activity
of $10 and $131 for the respective comparable periods. The loss on investment
activity in 1995 consisted primarily of the recognition of investments that were
determined to have a permanent decline in market value and as such, the decline
was recognized in that period. During April 1996, the chief executive officer of
the Company exercised an option to purchase common stock investments held by the
Company at 110% of the cost of such investments. The gain from such transaction
with a related party was approximated $40. Security sales vary from period to
period based on, among other things, market activity and cash needs, and
management cannot estimate the amount of future security sales gains or losses,
if any, that will be generated from such transactions.

of Operations (dollars in 000's) RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (continued):
Minority Interest in Loss of Subsidiaries - For the three months June 30, 1996
the minority interest in gain of subsidiaries was $21. For the three months June
30, 1995 and the six months June 30, 1996 and 1995, the minority interest in
loss of subsidiaries was $113, $733 and $108, respectively. Changes to the
minority interest in the gain and loss of subsidiaries, other than those changes
related to the inherent differences in the net income and loss of subsidiaries
from period to period, resulted from the minority issuance of stock options and
stock purchase warrants in the medical information services segment, the
issuance of minority owned stock in the contract engineering services segment
and the sale of 10% of the equity position of the Company's investments in
subsidiaries to the Company's CEO.
Impact of Inflation
The Company is subject to normal inflationary trends and anticipates that any
increased costs would be passed on to its customers.
