     Note 1--Basis of Presentation
     
          The accompanying unaudited condensed financial statements
     have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting
     principles for interim financial information and with the
     instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. 
     Accordingly they do not include all of the information and
     footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for
     complete financial statements.  In the opinion of management, all
     adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered
     necessary for a fair presentation have been included.  Operating
     results for the nine month period ending September 30, 1996 are not
     necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the
     year ended December 31, 1996. The unaudited condensed financial
     statements should be read in conjunction with the financial
     statements and footnotes thereto included in the Company's annual
     report and Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 1995.

           MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
     OF RESULTS OF OPERATIONS AND FINANCIAL CONDITION
     THREE MONTHS AND NINE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 1996
                             
                             
                              RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
     
          Net sales.  Net sales are net of discounts and are
     recognized upon shipment to a customer.  The Company's net sales
     increased by 16.6% to $13,631,921 for the third quarter of fiscal
     1996, from $11,691,875 during the same period in fiscal 1995. 
     The increase in net sales is due primarily to increased material
     sales associated with electro-mechanical assembly (box-build) to
     one customer.
     
          The company's net sales increased by 23.3% to $44,576,291
     during the nine months of fiscal 1996, from $36,140,147 during
     the same period of fiscal 1995.  Again this increase is primarily
     the result of the sales related to the box-build activity noted
     above.
     
          Gross profit. Gross profit equals net sales less cost of
     goods sold (such as salaries, leasing costs, and depreciation
     charges related to production operations); and non-direct,
     variable manufacturing costs (such as supplies and employee
     benefits). In the third quarter of fiscal 1996, gross profit
     decreased 13.6% to $535,750 compared to $619,768 for the same
     period in 1995.  The gross profit margin for the third quarter of
     fiscal 1996 was 3.9% compared to 5.3% for the same period of
     fiscal 1995.  The primary reason for the decline in gross profit
     is related to restructuring charges of $479,029 that were
     included in cost of goods sold for the third quarter of 1996. 
     Without these restructuring charges,  gross profit would have
     been $1,014,779 or 7.4% of net sales, an increase of 63.7% over
     the third quarter of 1995.  These restructuring charges were
     severance expenses related to a decrease in workforce, write down
     of inventory related to changes in the Company's customer mix,
     and expenses related to the reorganization of the manufacturing
     floor and manufacturing processes.
     
          Gross profit decreased by 34.2% to $1,900,088 compared to
     $2,886,567 for the first nine months of fiscal 1996.  The gross
     profit margin for the first nine months of fiscal 1996 was 4.3%
     compared to 8.0% for the first nine months of 1995. Excluding the
     restructuring charges as explained above gross profit would have
     been $2,379,117 or 5.3% for the third quarter of 1996. The
     additional decline not related to the restructuring charge taken
     in the third quarter of fiscal 1996 was attributable to increased
     overhead associated with the change in product mix from third
     quarter of 1995 to third quarter of 1996.  The decreased
     efficiencies prompted the Company to hire a new Chief Executive
     Officer and decrease its workforce and cost structure in order to
     position the Company for future success. 
     
          Selling, General and Administrative Expenses. Selling,
     general and administrative expenses (SGA expense) consist
     primarily of non-manufacturing salaries, sales commissions, and
     other general expenses.  SGA expense increased by 106.9% to
     $1,746,550 in the third quarter of 1996, compared with $844,243 a
     year earlier.  The increase is due to restructuring charges as
     explained above related to SGA expense in the amount of $922,404
     in the third quarter of 1996.  Excluding these costs the SGA
     expense would have been $824,146 a decrease of $20,007 from third
     quarter of 1995.  As a percentage of net sales SGA expenses
     increased from 7.2% of net sales in the third quarter of fiscal
     1995 to 12.8% of net sales in fiscal 1996.  Excluding the
     restructuring charges SGA expenses would have been 6.0% of net
     sales for the third quarter of 1996.
     
          Selling, general and administrative expenses increased by
     44.3% to $3,403,090 for the nine months of fiscal 1996 compared
     with $2,358,576 a year earlier.  Excluding the restructuring
     charges incurred in third quarter of 1996 SGA expenses would have
     increased by $122,110 or 5.2% over the first nine months of 1995. 
     As a percentage of net sales, SGA increased to 7.6% in the first
     nine months of 1996 from 6.5% in the same period of fiscal 1995. 
     Without the restructuring charges SGA expenses would have been
     5.6% of net sales for the nine months ended September 30, 1996.
     
          Impairment of fixed assets.  During the third quarter of
     1996 the Company incurred a write down associated with impaired
     assets in the amount of $725,869.  Statement of Financial
     Accounting Standards No.121-Accounting for the impairment of
     long-lived assets and for long-lived assets to be disposed of ;
     requires that long-lived assets and certain identifiable
     intangibles to be held and used by an entity be reviewed for
     impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate
     that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. 
     Long-lived assets and certain identifiable intangibles to be
     disposed of should be reported at the lower of carrying amount or
     fair value less cost to sell.  The Company went through a
     corporate restructuring in the third quarter of 1996 which
     included a workforce reduction and a change in the way product is
     manufactured which resulted in several assets both tangible and
     intangible to be eliminated from operations.  Certain software
     that we will no longer be using as well as excess equipment that
     is now held for sale was written down to fair value in order to
     comply with Statement No.121 as mentioned above.
     
          Operating income.  Operating income for the third quarter
     of fiscal 1996 decreased  762.8% to a loss of $1,936,669 from a
     loss of $224,475 for the third quarter of fiscal 1995.  Operating
     income as a percentage of net sales decreased to (14.2%) in the
     third quarter of fiscal 1996 from (1.9%) in the same period last
     year.  The decrease in operating income was attributable to the
     restructuring charges and impairment of fixed assets write down
     as noted above.  The total of these items for the third quarter
     of 1996 was $2,127,302.  Excluding these items operating income
     would have been $190,633 or 1.4% of net sales for the third
     quarter of 1996.
     
          Operating income for the first nine months of fiscal 1996
     decreased 522.1% to a loss of  $2,228,871 from income of $527,991
     in the first nine months of fiscal 1995.  Operating income as a
     percent of sales decreased to (5.0%) in the first nine months of
     fiscal 1996 compared to 1.5% in the first nine months of 1995. 
     By excluding the restructuring charges noted above the operating
     loss would have been $101,569 or (0.2%) of net sales for the nine
     months ended September 30, 1996.
     
          Interest expense.  Interest expense for the third quarter
     of 1996 was $141,898 compared to $96,769 for the same period in
     fiscal 1995.  The need to fund the increase in inventory and
     accounts receivable levels with operating debt was the primary
     reason for the increase in interest expense.
     
          Interest expense for the first nine months of 1996 was
     $384,511 compared to $265,733 for the same period a year earlier. 
     Borrowing due to increases in inventory and accounts receivable
     levels is the primary reason for the increase in interest
     expense.
     
          Income tax expense.  The estimate of the Company's
     effective income tax rate for the third quarter of fiscal 1996
     and 1995 was 34.6% and 32.3% respectively.  This percentage
     fluctuates substantially because relatively small dollar amounts
     tend to move the rate significantly as estimates change.  State
     tax credits generated from capital investment and job creation
     also continue to effect state taxes because of the Company's
     location in a state-designated "enterprise" zone.
     
          The effective income tax rate for the first nine months of
     fiscal 1996 was 35.4% compared to 37.1% from the same period a
     year earlier.  This percentage fluctuates because relatively
     small dollar amounts tend to move the rate significantly as
     estimates change and the Company is located in a state enterprise
     zone which gives access to state tax credits for capital
     investment and job creation.
     
     
     LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
     
          During the first nine months of fiscal 1996 cash used in
     operations was $460,712 compared to cash provided by operations
     of $476,439 in the same period last year.  Cash used to reduce
     accounts payable was the key factor that created the use of cash
     in 1996.
     
          As of September 30,1996, working capital totaled $8,182,490
     compared to $9,867,843 at December 31,1995.  The decline is
     attributable primarily to the purchase of fixed assets and long-term debt
     retirement in the first nine months of the year.
     
          Accounts receivable decreased 9.3% to $3,420,482 at
     September 30,1996 from $3,769,264 at September 30,1995.  A
     comparison of receivable turns (i.e. annualized sales divided by
     current accounts receivable) for the third quarter of fiscal 1996
     and the third quarter of fiscal 1995 is 15.9 and 12.4 turns,
     respectively.
     
          Inventories increased 24.9% to $10,147,092 at September
     30,1996 from $8,121,589 at September 30,1995.  A comparison of
     inventory turns (i.e. annualized cost of sales divided by current
     inventory) for the third quarter of fiscal 1996 and 1995 shows a
     decrease to 5.2 from 5.5, respectively.
     
          
          The Company used cash to purchase capital equipment
     totaling $2,135,969 in the first nine months of 1996, compared
     with $2,231,860 in the same period last year.  Capital purchases
     for the remainder of 1996 are anticipated to be minimal with the
     exception of expenditures related to the installation of the new
     management information systems estimated to be about $150,000 for
     the fourth quarter of 1996.
     
          On October 2, 1996, the Company renegotiated its revolving
     line of credit in the amount of $10,000,000 with a maturity date
     of June 5, 1997. The amount outstanding was $2,300,000 at
     September 30, 1996.  Interest on this credit facility accrues
     when drawn down at the Bank One Prime rate plus .25% (8.5% at
     September 30, 1996).  The credit facility is collateralized by
     substantially all of the Company's assets, other than real
     estate.  The loan agreement from this facility contains
     restrictive covenants relating to capital expenditures, borrowing
     and payment of dividends, and certain financial statement ratios. 
     These credit facilities may be withdrawn/canceled at the bank's
     option under certain conditions such as default or in the event
     the Company experiences a material negative change in financial
     condition.  The Company also has a term loan that is secured by
     deeds of trust on both of the Company's buildings and land.  The
     term of the loan is seven years with a 20 year amortization. 
     Principal payments of $85,000 are semi-annual with monthly
     payments of interest.  The loan rate floats at the Citibank prime
     rate plus 1% (9.25% at September 30, 1996) with a cap of 9.5%. 
     The rate is adjusted annually on September 15.  The balance due
     on the loan was $3,060,000 at September 30, 1996.
     
          The Company may require additional capital to finance
     enhancements to, or expansions of, its manufacturing capacity in
     accordance with its business strategy.  Management believes that
     the need for working capital will continue to grow at a rate
     generally consistent with the growth of the Company's operations. 
     Although no assurance can be given that financing will be
     available on terms acceptable to the Company, the Company may
     seek additional funds, from time to time, through public or
     private debt or equity offerings, bank borrowing, or leasing
     arrangements.
     
     
     QUARTERLY RESULTS
     
          Although management does not believe that the Company's
     business is affected by seasonal factors, the Company's sales and
