                   NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
              ($000's omitted in tables except for per share data)

1. The information set forth herein is unaudited. This financial information
reflects all normal accruals and adjustments which, in the opinion of
management, are necessary for a fair statement of the results for the periods
presented.

     Revenue recognition
     -------------------

     The Company incurred costs for certain contracts which are long term. These
contracts are accounted for under the percentage of completion method
(cost-to-cost) which recognizes revenue as the work progresses towards
completion. Revenues on the remaining contracts are recognized when the terms of
purchase orders are met.

     Included in other current assets is $227,000 of unbilled revenues which
represent revenue earned under the percentage of completion method
(cost-to-cost) not yet billable under the terms of the contracts. Included in
other accrued liabilities is $26,000 of deferred revenue which represents
billings under the terms of the contracts in excess of revenue earned under the
percentage of completion method.

     Reclassification of prior year balances
     ---------------------------------------

     Certain prior year balances have been reclassified to conform with the
current year presentation.

     Engineering and other support costs are incurred in fulfilling certain
contracts which have a production cycle longer than one year. A portion of these
costs will, therefore, not be realized within one year.

     Per share data is based on weighted average outstanding shares of 1,692,918
and 1,660,104 for the first quarter ended March 31, 1997 and 1996.

     In February of 1997, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued
a Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 128, "Earnings Per Share"
(FASB 128). FASB 128 replaces the presentation of primary and fully diluted
earnings per share with basic and diluted earnings per share, respectively. In
accordance with the provisions of FASB 128, the Company will adopt the standards
for reporting the basic and diluted earnings per share for all financial
statements with periods ending after December 15, 1997. The Company has
considered the potential impact of FASB 128 and has concluded that the effect of
adoption will not have a material effect on earnings per share.

     On May 3, 1996 the Company's Board of Directors declared an 8% stock
dividend payable to shareholders of record on May 31, 1996. The payment date for
the stock dividend was July 1, 1996. Accordingly, per share data for all periods
presented in the accompanying income statement have been stated to give effect
to the issuance of these shares.

Management Discussion
- ---------------------

     During the three month period ended March 31, 1997 and for the comparable
period ended March 31, 1996, approximately 34% and 20% respectively, of the
Company's revenues were derived from contracts with agencies of the US
Government or their prime contractors. The Company's business is performed under
fixed price contracts. It is noted that, the many uncertainties in today's
global economy, the national deficit and defense cutbacks (both actual and
proposed) preclude any guarantees or even assurances that current programs will
be continued or that programs in the prototype stages will ultimately result in
production applications. It is because of such uncertainties and because such
adverse occurrences may not be counterbalanced with new programs or otherwise
that cyclical downturns in operational performances are realistic expectations.

Results of Operations
- ---------------------

     The Company's consolidated results of operations for the three month period
ended March 31, 1997 showed an approximate .4% decrease in net sales and an
increase in net income of approximately 7.1% when compared to the same three
month period of 1996. The decrease in sales is the result of a decrease in sales
at the Consumer Products operations, due to a decrease in customer demands
partially offset by an increase in sales at the Advanced Technology operations.

     The Advanced Technology Group's total backlog (funded and unfunded) as of
March 31, 1997 increased by approximately 43% from a year earlier. The March 31,
1997 total backlog is approximately $45,900,000 as compared to $32,100,000 of
which $37,700,000 and $24,700,000 were unfunded in each of the respective
comparable periods. Approximately $29,500,000 of the March 31, 1997 backlog is
for product deliveries beyond 1999. The unfunded portion of the backlog is based
on the Company's customers' estimated quantities for multi-year agreements for
which the Company has not received firm orders.

     Operating profit as a percentage of net sales for the three month period
ended March 31, 1997 increased to 3.2 % from 3.0% as reported for the same three
month period of 1996. The 

                                      -11-

<PAGE>   12

fluctuations in operating profit as a percentage of net sales is a result of
differences in the product mix.

     Selling, general and administrative costs decreased for the three month
period ended March 31, 1997 when compared to the same three month period of 1996
due to a decrease in sales and professional costs.

     Income taxes for the three month period ended March 31, 1997 increased as a
percentage of income before taxes when compared to the same three month period
of 1996 due primarily to variable state income tax rates. 

Liquidity and Capital Resources
- -------------------------------

     Certain contracts of the Advanced Technology Group require development and
engineering costs in addition to hardware and the maintenance of inventory for
replacement and/or overhaul. The replacement and/or overhaul units are billed at
the time of shipment. During the three month period ending March 31, 1997, the
Company continued to invest in additional inventory for primarily new programs.
These costs and those incurred in previous periods are expensed as hardware is
shipped. The inventories at March 31, 1997, include costs associated with the
initiation and maintenance of certain programs and costs in anticipation of
increased demands upon the Company to support new programs and the request of
customers' for shorter production lead time.

     During the three month period ended March 31, 1997, the Company expended
$395,000 on capital expenditures. The Company also has a $1,000,000 line of
credit at March 31, 1997 of which nothing is outstanding at March 31, 1997.

     There are no material commitments for capital expenditures at March 31,

                           FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

In addition to historical information, certain sections of this Form 10-QSB
contain forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the
Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934,
such as those pertaining to the Company's capital resources and profitability.
Forward-looking statements involve numerous risks and uncertainties. The Company
derives approximately 34% of its revenues from contracts with agencies of the
U.S. Government or their prime contractors. The Company's business is performed
under fixed price contracts and the following factors, among others discussed
herein, could cause actual results and future events to differ materially from
those set forth or contemplated in the forward-looking statements: uncertainties
in today's global economy, the growth of the national deficit and difficulty in
predicting defense appropriations, the discontinuance of current defense
programs, the vitality of the commercial aviation industry and its ability to
purchase new aircraft, the willingness and ability of the Company's customers to
fund and issue substantial follow-on orders to the Company for long-term
programs, competitive products and pricing, difficulties in the development or
commercialization of products, product demand and market acceptance, both for
the Company's products and its customers' products which incorporate components
supplied by the Company, enforceability of intellectual property rights,
capacity and supply, the effects of foreign competition, and the Company's
future accounting policies. The success of the Company also depends upon the
trends of the economy, including interest rates, income tax laws, governmental
regulation, legislation, population changes and those risk factors discussed
elsewhere in this Form 10-QSB. Readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance
on forward-looking statements, which reflect management's analysis only as the
date hereof. The Company assumes no obligation to update forward-looking
statements.
