2000 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the
year ending April 30, 2000. For further information, refer to the consolidated

NOTE D - LIGHTING COMPONENTS

The Company has an equity interest of 12% in Lighting Components L.P. The
Company has amounts due from Lighting Components of approximately $1,523,750 at
January 31, 2000. In prior periods the Company reduced the carrying value of its
investment in Lighting Components to approximately $975,000 in the accompanying
balance sheet at January 31, 2000. The Company has a security interest in
substantially all of Lighting Component's assets.

Lighting Components distributes a variety of electronic and molded plastic
components for use in the sign and lighting industries. Field trials for
Lighting Component's new product have been positive and the level of orders is
increasing, which is critical to a turnaround in its financial performance.

NOTE E - PATENTS AND TRADEMARKS

The Company generally does not produce its own proprietary products but
assembles custom products to the specifications of its customers. The Company
relies primarily upon the patents, confidential designs and proprietary know-how
of its customers and its own proprietary know-how in order to establish and
maintain its competitive advantage. The Company owns no patents or registered
trademarks. The Company relies on confidentiality agreements with its customers
and its employees as well as other incentives to its employees to maintain its
proprietary information. There can be no assurance that the steps taken by the
Company will be adequate to protect its proprietary rights or that a competitor
will not independently develop know-how or processes similar or superior to
those of the Company.

The Company has obtained a license from the Lemelson Medical, Education &
Research Foundation, Limited Partnership (Lemelson) to permit the Company to
continue to operate as it has in the past. The Company expensed in the third
fiscal quarter the initial license fee amount and will expense in subsequent
periods the balance of the license fee. The license fees over the life of the
agreement will not have a material impact on the Company's financial position.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

NOTE: To the extent any statements in this quarterly statement may be deemed to
be forward looking, such statements should be evaluated in the context of the
risks and uncertainties inherent in the Company's business, including the
Company's continuing dependence on certain major customers; the Company's
ability to obtain financing; the availability and cost of components; the
anticipated seasonality of its business; the timing and re-scheduling of
customer orders for the Company and its affiliate and other risks and
uncertainties set forth in the Company's periodic reports filed with the
Securities and Exchange Commission including but not limited to, its Annual
Report on Form 10-K and cautionary note contained therein for the fiscal year
ended April 30, 1999. Any forward looking statements speak as of the date of

AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

this report and the Company makes no obligation to update such statements in
light of future events or otherwise.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS:

Net sales increased for the three month period ended January 31, 2000 to
$24,972,991 from $23,019,878 for the three month period ended January 31, 1999.
The increase in net sales is primarily due to additional sales to some of the
Company's existing customers. The timing and rescheduling of orders has caused
the Company to experience significant quarterly fluctuations in its revenue and
earnings and the Company expects such fluctuations to continue. Historically,
the Company's highest level of sales are achieved in its second and third
quarters. During the first nine months of fiscal 2000 net sales increased by
10.7% to $72,344,179 from $64,584,094 compared to the same period in the prior
year. The increase in sales is the result of additional sales to existing
customers and new customers. In the Electronic Manufacturing Services industry
the sales level can be misleading as an indication of the Company's
profitability. Sales levels can fluctuate due to labor only orders compared to
turnkey orders. Turnkey orders require the Company to procure the necessary
components for assembly, which increases the selling price compared to labor
only services. A turnkey order may have a higher selling price but may not be as
profitable as a labor only order.

Gross profit decreased slightly during the three month period ended January 31,
2000 to $1,826,719, compared to $1,848,544 for the same period in the prior
fiscal year. For the nine month period ended January 31, 2000, gross profits
increased to $7,289,548 or 10.1% of net sales from $5,922,371 or 9.2% of net
sales. The variation in gross profit for the nine months ended January 31, 2000
is primarily related to the increase in net sales and product mix.

Selling and administrative expenses decreased to $1,411,479 or 5.7% of net sales
for the three month period ended January 31, 2000 compared to $1,484,456 or 6.5%
of net sales in the third quarter of fiscal 1999. Selling and administrative
expense for the nine month period ended January 31, 2000 increased to $4,493,107
from $4,078,296 for the same period in the prior fiscal year. The increase for
the nine month period is due to an increase in the allowance for doubtful
account reserve as well as the patent license expense and a bonus accrual.

Interest expense for bank debt and capital lease obligations for the three month
period ended January 31, 2000 was $572,779 compared to $547,401 for the same
period in the prior year. This increase is attributable to a higher outstanding
balance on the line of credit and a higher interest rate. For the nine month
period ended January 31, 2000 interest expense for bank and capital lease
obligations increased to $1,618,666 compared to $1,498,509 for the same period
in fiscal 1999. This increase was attributable to a higher outstanding balance
on the line of credit, a higher interest rate and interest expense for increased
capital lease obligations.

AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

In the third quarter of fiscal 1999 a gain on flood proceeds of $563,000 was
recorded. This gain distorts the quarterly comparison for the third quarter of
the current fiscal year to fiscal 1999.

The reduction in income tax expense during the quarter ended January 31, 2000
was the result of the finalization of certain transfer pricing accounting.

During the nine month period ended January 31, 2000 an extraordinary item for
the early extinguishment of debt was recorded in the amount of $87,500, net of
taxes of $58,333.

As a result of the factors described above, basic and diluted earnings per share
for the third fiscal quarter of 2000 were $0.19 compared to $0.08 for the same
period in the prior year. For the first nine months of fiscal 2000 basic and
diluted earnings per share were $0.53 compared to $0.24 for the same period in
fiscal 1999.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES:

For the nine months ended January 31, 2000 the primary source of liquidity was
cash provided by borrowings from the Company's secured lender and net income
from operations. The net cash used in operations was $570,635 for the nine
months ended January 31, 2000 compared $4,420,313 for the same period in the
prior year.

Net cash provided by financing activities was $1,501,749 for the nine month
period ended January 31, 2000 compared to $139,840 in the prior year. Net
proceeds under the line of credit increased to $3,330,724 for the nine months
ended January 31, 2000 from $1,857,124 for the nine months ended January 31,
1999.

YEAR 2000 COMPLIANCE:

The Company uses computer software programs and operating systems in its
internal operations, including information technology (IT) and non-IT systems.
To date the Company has incurred approximately $30,000 of expense in year 2000
compliance issues. The Company does not anticipate that current or future cost
related to the year 2000 issue will have a material impact on its financial
condition.

The Company relies on major distributors, suppliers, customers, vendors, and
financial service organizations which may not be year 2000 compliant. To date
neither the Company or outside service organizations has experienced any major
problems. Due to the general uncertainty
