Item 2. Management's  Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results
of Operations
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Three Months Ended July 31, 1999 vs Three Months Ended July 31, 1998
- --------------------------------------------------------------------

     The Company's  sales  increased by 34% from $1,768,732 for the three months
ended July 31,  1998,  to  $2,377,489  for the three months ended July 31, 1999.
This improvement in sales was the result of sales to new customers, sales of new
parts, and volume increases in sales orders from existing customers.

     Gross  profit  margins,  expressed  as a  percentage  of  sales,  decreased
slightly  from 34% for the three months ended July 31, 1998 to 33% for the three
months ended July 31, 1999. This decrease was due to an increase in direct labor
and overhead cost.

     Depreciation  expense  increased  by 32% from  $48,025 for the three months
ended July 31, 1998,  to $63,166 for the three months ended July 31, 1999.  This
increase was the result of new equipment being brought into service.

     Expenses for research and development increased by 36% from $83,374 for the
three months ended July 31, 1998 to $113,129 for the three months ended July 31,
1999.  This  increase  was  primarily  due to (i) an  increase  in the number of
engineering personnel conducting in-house activities,  (ii) an increase in usage
of outside  contractors to  accommodate an increase in research and  development
activities,  and (iii) an increase in travel  expenses to  customers  to provide
extra services related to new design.

     Selling and  distribution  expenses  increased by 96%, from $95,094 for the
three months  ended July 31,  1998,  to $186,452 for the three months ended July
31,  1999.  This  increase  was due to (i) an increase of $36,710 in  commission
expenses  associated with the increase in sales,  (ii) an increase of $13,693 in
warranty  claims,  (iii) an increase of $9,193 in travel expenses related to the
Company's marketing efforts,  and (iv) $31,762 resulting from the initial set up
of an office in Tokyo  with one  full-time  Japanese  employee  to  enhance  the
Company's direct marketing efforts in Japan.

     General and  administrative  expenses increased by 30% from $99,731 for the
three months  ended July 31,  1998,  to $129,503 for the three months ended July
31, 1999, as a result of (i) an increase of $4,775 due to additional maintenance
support fees paid to the EDI program as required from major  customers,  (ii) an
increase  of $11,568  due to  increase  in the  number  of  persons  employed in
administration, (iii) a decrease of $9,000 due to the cancellation of management
contracts,  (iv) an increase of $20,470 in consulting and legal fees, and (v) an
increase of $1,959 in other administration costs.

     The  provision  for profit  sharing  increased  by 20% from $28,020 for the
three months ended July 31, 1998, to $33,723 for the three months ended July 31,
1999. This increase was the result of an increase in income.

     Interest  income (net of interest  expense)  increased  from $8,078 for the
three months ended July 31, 1998, to $28,502 for the three months ended July 31,
1999,  as a result  of an  increase  in  interest  earnings  of  $5,930  on cash
deposits, an decrease of approximately $1,498 in interest expenses for the lease
cost of the CNC Milling  Machine  Centre,  and interest  and penalty  charges of
$12,996 related to the PST (Provincial  Sales Tax) audit performed for the years
1992 to 1997.

     Before income taxes,  the Company's  income increased from $250,935 for the
three months  ended July 31,  1998,  to $281,899 for the three months ended July
31, 1999. This increase in income resulted primarily from higher sales.

33% for the six  month  period  ended  July 31,  1998 to 32% for the six  months

increase in direct labor and overhead charges.

     Depreciation expense increased by 21% from $90,976 for the six months ended
July 31, 1998, to $109,973 for the six months ended July 31, 1999. This increase

the six months ended July 31, 1998 to $227,059 for the six months ended July 31,
1999.  This  increase  was due to (i) an increase  in the number of  engineering
personnel conducting in-house  activities,  (ii) an increase in usage of outside
contractors to accommodate an increase in research and  development  activities,
and (iii) an increase in travel  expenses to customers to provide extra services
related to new design.

     Selling and distribution  expenses  increased by 84%, from $174,400 for the
six months  ended July 31,  1998,  to $320,429 for the six months ended July 31,
1999.  This  increase  was  primarily  due to  (i) an  increase  of  $64,416  in
commissions  expenses  from  volume  increases  in sales,  (ii) an  increase  in
warranty claims of $21,843,  (iii) increase of $5,642 in travel expenses related

six months  ended July 31,  1998,  to $282,607 for the six months ended July 31,

administration of $24,868,  (ii) a loss on foreign exchange of $9,646,  (iii) an

management contracts, and (vi) an increase of $6,483 due to other administration

six months  ended July 31,  1998,  to $59,428 for the six months  ended July 31,
1999,  as a result of an  increase  in  interest  earnings  of  $17,595  on cash
