The Company's cash and cash equivalents increased to $2,238,000 during the
first nine months of fiscal 1999 from $752,000 at the end of fiscal 1998. The
increase resulted from cash provided by operating activities totaling $3,290,000
and proceeds of $60,000 from the sale of common stock in connection with the
employee incentive stock option plan. Partially offsetting the increase in cash
and cash equivalents from these sources were the repayments of long-term debt of
$6,000 and the revolving credit loan payable to bank of $1,000,000, purchases of
capital equipment of $329,000, the payment of $372,000 in cash dividends to
shareholders, and the payment of $157,000 in connection with the repurchase and
retirement of the Company's common stock. Funds used by operating activities
during the first nine months of fiscal 1998 were $2,285,000.

Liquidity and Capital Resources (Continued)
- -------------------------------
The Company has a $5,000,000 committed revolving credit facility which is
secured by a lien position on accounts receivable, land, and buildings and
contains various restrictive covenants relating to additional indebtedness,
asset acquisitions or dispositions, and maintenance of certain financial ratios.
The Company was in compliance with all covenants during the first nine months of
fiscal 1999. Currently, the committed revolving credit facility has an
expiration date of August 31, 2000. The Company repaid its outstanding debt
under the committed revolving credit facility on March 2, 1998, and the Company
did not have any additional borrowings under the committed revolving credit
facility during the first nine months of fiscal 1999.
On March 4, 1996, SI/BAKER established a $2,500,000 Line of Credit Facility
(the "Facility") with its principal bank (the "Bank"). Under terms of the
Facility, SI/BAKER's parent companies, SI and McKesson APS, have each provided a
limited guarantee and surety in an amount not to exceed $1,000,000 for a
combined guarantee of $2,000,000 to the Bank for the payment and performance of
the related note, including any further renewals or modifications of the
Facility. During fiscal 1998, the Bank increased the borrowing availability to
$3,000,000 and extended the expiration date of the Facility. As of November 30,
1998, SI/BAKER did not have any borrowings under the Facility. The Facility has
an expiration date of August 31, 1999.
On October 14, 1997, the Board of Directors of the Company declared a
three-for-two stock split that was distributed on November 10, 1997 to the
shareholders of record on October 27, 1997. The purpose of the stock split was
to increase the number of outstanding shares and broaden ownership and
availability of the Company's common stock.
On October 14, 1998, the Board of Directors of the Company authorized
management to purchase up to $400,000 of the Company's common stock through open
market transactions or negotiated transactions at prices not to exceed
prevailing market prices. The stock repurchase program allows the Company to
take advantage of opportunities to purchase the Company's common stock at
favorable prices.
The Company believes that its financial resources consisting of its current
assets, anticipated cash flow, and the available revolving credit facility will
adequately finance its operating requirements for the foreseeable future.
The Company plans to consider expansion opportunities as they arise,
although ongoing operating results of the Company, the economics of the
expansion, and the circumstances justifying the expansion will be key factors in
determining the amount of resources the Company will devote to further
expansion. At this time, the Company does not have any material capital
commitments.

company, including a unique utilization of robotics. This systems integration
contract contains a high degree of ancillary products, providing lower gross
profit margins than sales of the Company's proprietary products and is scheduled
to be completed by the end of the first half of fiscal 2000. Other contractual
work, totaling approximately $4,500,000, engages the Company to provide
proprietary product for automating three sites for one of the leading automotive
manufacturers and is anticipated to be completed during the first quarter of
fiscal 2000.
Net sales of $30,091,000 for the first nine months of fiscal 1999 decreased
7.0% compared to net sales of $32,371,000 for the first nine months of fiscal
1998. The sales decrease in the first nine months of fiscal 1999 is attributed
primarily to a smaller backlog of orders entering fiscal 1999 ($22,092,000
versus a $31,029,000 backlog beginning fiscal 1998). The largest declines in
sales occurred in the Order Selection and Switch-Cart product lines. During the
first nine months of fiscal 1999, Order Selection sales of approximately
$11,000,000 declined approximately $975,000 from the prior year comparable
period due to delays in earlier periods by prospective customers in signing
contracts often caused by expanding project scope or protracted contractual
negotiations. However, Order Selection sales of $5,350,000 for the third quarter
of fiscal 1999 rose by $1,850,000 when compared to the third quarter of fiscal
1998 due to progress on a large systems integration contract. During the first
nine months of fiscal 1999, Switch-Cart sales of approximately $7,000,000
declined approximately $5,250,000 from the prior year comparable period due
primarily to the fiscal 1998 comparable period containing a greater amount of
revenue for progress on the contract with the Defense Logistics Agency of the
United States government. Partially offsetting the decline in Order Selection
and Switch-Cart sales during the first nine months of fiscal 1999 was an
increase in sales of approximately $3,950,000 across the Company's other
products lines, with the majority of the increase relating to sales of the
Company's Cartrac, Sortation, and Automated Guided Vehicle product lines.
Gross profit as a percentage of sales was 22.8% for the first nine months
of fiscal 1999 compared to 22.4% for the first nine months of fiscal 1998.
Although the gross profit percentage was relatively the same as the comparable
prior year period, the fiscal 1999 gross profit percentage was impacted by
favorable performance on several contracts, principally for the Company's higher
margin proprietary products, initiated in the prior fiscal year that were
completed or nearing completion during the first half of fiscal 1999. However,
offsetting the favorable performance was progress during the third quarter of
fiscal 1999 on systems integration contracts which contain a high degree of
ancillary products and provide lower gross profit margins than sales of the
Company's higher margin proprietary products.
Selling, general, and administrative expenses of $4,811,000 were higher by
$55,000 in the first nine months of fiscal 1999 than in the comparable fiscal
1998 period. The increase in selling, general, and administrative expenses is
attributable to (1) increases of approximately $400,000 for costs associated
with inflationary factors and product promotion and sales efforts aimed at
expanding the Company's customer base of business consistent with the Company's
strategic plan to grow the business as a systems integrator and (2) increases of
approximately $65,000 in professional fees and expenses associated with
increasing the visibility of the

Company and exploring business opportunities and strategic alliances. The
increases in selling, general, and administrative expenses occurred primarily in
the first half of fiscal 1999. Partially offsetting the increase in selling,
general, and administrative expenses was a reduction of approximately $380,000
for expenses associated with the Company's incentive-based compensation plan
which provides for gain sharing as a means of promoting performance excellence.
Product development costs of $361,000 were higher by $200,000 in the first
nine months of fiscal 1999 than in the comparable fiscal 1998 period.
Development programs in the first nine months of fiscal 1999 included
enhancements to the Company's product controls and features and improvements to
the Order Selection product line. Development programs in the first nine months
of fiscal 1998 included efforts directed at improvements across various product
lines, and efforts associated with the introduction of the Henke light-duty
overhead transportation product.
Equity in income of joint venture represents the Company's proportionate
share of its investment in SI/BAKER which is being accounted for under the
equity method. The unfavorable variance of $297,000 for the first nine months of
fiscal 1999 in the equity in income of joint venture was attributable to
SI/BAKER's decline in sales to approximately $5,993,000 as compared to the
comparable fiscal 1998 period of approximately $17,253,000. The sales decrease
in fiscal 1999 was primarily attributable to a smaller backlog of orders
entering fiscal 1999 versus a record high opening backlog of orders at the
beginning of fiscal 1998. Fiscal 1998 sales were favorably impacted by
performance on contracts wherein customer specifications required systems to be
commercially operable by the end of fiscal 1998; however, the fiscal 1998 gross
profit percentage was unfavorably impacted by difficulties in executing and
concluding several contracts as additional costs became necessary to meet
contractual throughput requirements. Also contributing to fiscal 1999's
unfavorable variance was increased development expenses of $334,000 for software
and controls capabilities for various new products addressing changing market
requirements. Partially offsetting the unfavorable variance were SI/BAKER's
decreases of (1) $450,000 in revenue-based royalty costs due to the parent
companies and (2) $55,000 in selling, general, and administrative expenses for
those expenses based on revenue and profit performance. The decrease in selling,
general, and administrative expenses occurred primarily in the first half of
fiscal 1999; however, selling, general, and administrative expenses for the
third quarter of fiscal 1999 increased when compared to the third quarter of
fiscal 1998 due to costs associated with sales and administrative efforts aimed
at expanding SI/BAKER's customer base of business.
The unfavorable variance of $220,000 in other income, net, is primarily
attributable to a decrease in the revenue-based royalty income related to the
SI/BAKER joint venture.
The Company incurred income tax expense of $748,000 during the first nine
months of fiscal 1999 compared to income tax expense of $1,215,000 in the
comparable fiscal 1998 period. Income tax expense was generally recorded at
statutory federal and state tax rates expected to apply for each fiscal year.

----
Changes in the third quarter of the current fiscal year compared to the
prior year were consistent with those previously noted above for the nine-month
period, except for the following areas:
Gross profit as a percentage of sales was 20.0% for the third quarter of
fiscal 1999 compared to 22.2% for the third quarter of fiscal 1998. The decline
in gross profit percentage was primarily attributable to a larger proportion of
progress on systems integration contracts which contain a high degree of
ancillary products and provide lower gross profit margins than sales of the
Company's higher margin proprietary products.
Selling, general, and administrative expenses of $1,549,000 were lower by
$135,000 in the third quarter of fiscal 1999 than in the comparable fiscal 1998
period. The decrease in selling, general, and administrative expenses is
primarily attributable to a reduction of expenses associated with the Company's
incentive-based compensation plan which provides for gain sharing as a means of
promoting performance excellence.
Interest income of $37,000 was higher by $14,000 in the third quarter of
fiscal 1999 than in the comparable fiscal 1998 period. The increase in interest
income is primarily attributable to the higher level of funds available for
short-term investments during the third quarter of fiscal 1999.

Year 2000

The Year 2000 issue relates to the ability of computer systems,
microprocessors, and other electronic devices to deal appropriately with dates
on or after January 1, 2000 and other dates used for special programmatic
functions (e.g., 9999). The effect of the Year 2000 issue may include computer
failures and business interruption.
The Company has assembled a team of internal staff to oversee the matter
and is underway in completing its Year 2000 assessment. Internally, the Company
has upgraded its business system to address the Year 2000 issue. Externally, the
Company has and will continue to survey its suppliers, financial institutions,
and other organizations to ensure that those parties have appropriate plans to
remediate Year 2000 issues where their systems or business activities may impact
the Company's operations. However, the Company cannot presently estimate the
impact of the failure of third parties to be Year 2000 compliant. Also,
customers may utilize the services, on a fee basis, of the Company's customer
support group to assess and upgrade their materials handling systems purchased
from the Company in prior years for Year 2000 compliance. Costs incurred to date
and estimated costs to complete the Company's Year 2000 compliance efforts are
not expected to be material.
The outline of the general phases of the Company's Year 2000 project is as
follows: (1) Year 2000 methodology and compliance training for key personnel;
(2) inventorying Year 2000 items, internally and externally; (3) assigning
priorities to identified Year 2000 items; (4) assessing the Year 2000 compliance
of items determined to be material to the Company; (5) remediating or replacing
material items that are determined not to be Year 2000 compliant; (6) testing
material items for Year 2000 compliance; and (7) designing and implementing
contingency plans to the extent deemed necessary. The Company has substantially
completed phases (1) through (5) relating to existing internal hardware,
software, facilities and equipment; however, testing is ongoing as hardware,
software, and equipment are remediated, upgraded or replaced. Additionally, the
Company continues to assess and test newly engaged suppliers and their products
for Year 2000 compliance as part of the Company's normal business operations.
The Company has not completed its external surveys or made contingency plans in
the case that it is not Year 2000 compliant by the Year 2000. The Company will
continue to monitor its Year 2000 compliance program, address any material
issues, and develop contingency planning as it deems appropriate.
The scheduled completion date for the Company's efforts to address the Year
2000 issue is July 1999. The failure to identify or correct a material Year 2000
problem could result in an interruption in, or a failure of, certain business
activities or operations such as the Company's ability to service its customers.
Such failures could materially and adversely affect the Company's results of
operations, liquidity, and financial condition. Due to the general uncertainty
inherent in the Year 2000 problem, resulting in part from the uncertainty of the
Year 2000 readiness of suppliers and customers, the Company is unable to
determine at this time whether the consequences of Year 2000 failures will have
a material impact on the Company's results of operations, liquidity, and
financial condition. The Company's Year 2000 assessment process is expected to
significantly reduce the Company's level of uncertainty about the Year 2000
problem and, in particular, about the Year 2000 compliance and readiness of its
material suppliers and customers.
