NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - UNAUDITED

1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION

BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The accompanying unaudited consolidated condensed financial statements of
Centennial Technologies, Inc. ("Centennial;" also at times referred to as "we",
"our" or "us") include the accounts of Centennial and all wholly owned
subsidiaries. Investments in companies in which ownership interests range from
20 to 50 percent and Centennial exercises significant influence over operating
and financial policies are accounted for using the equity method. Other
investments are accounted for using the cost method. All significant
intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated.

The accompanying unaudited consolidated condensed financial statements have
been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the
United States for interim financial information and with the instructions to
Form 10-Q and Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all
financial information and disclosures required by accounting principles
generally accepted in the United States for complete financial statements. In
our opinion, these financial statements include all adjustments (consisting only
of normal recurring accruals) necessary for a fair presentation of the results
of operations for the interim periods reported and of our financial condition as
of the date of the interim balance sheet. The results of operations for interim
periods are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the
full year.

These financial statements should be read in conjunction with our
consolidated financial statements and related notes included in our Annual
Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 25, 2000 along with any
other filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission since March 25, 2000.

FISCAL YEAR

Our fiscal year began on March 26, 2000. Each fiscal quarter ends on the
Saturday of the thirteenth week following the beginning of the quarter, except
for the fourth quarter, which ends on the last Saturday of March.

CASH EQUIVALENTS

Cash equivalents include highly liquid temporary cash investments having
maturities of three months or less at date of acquisition.

COMPREHENSIVE INCOME

Comprehensive income was $2,027,000 and $216,000 for the quarters ended
June 24, 2000 and June 26, 1999, respectively, and is comprised of net income
and cumulative translation adjustments.

SEGMENTS OF BUSINESS ENTERPRISE

We primarily operate in a single industry segment, the design and
manufacture of high technology memory chip based products used in industrial and
commercial applications.

ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

In December 1999, the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") issued
Staff Accounting Bulletin 101, "Revenue Recognition in Financial Statements"
("SAB 101") which provides guidance related to revenue recognition based on
interpretations and practices followed by the SEC. SAB 101 is effective the
fourth quarter of fiscal 2001 and requires companies to report any changes in
revenue recognition as a cumulative change in accounting principle at the time
of implementation in accordance with APB Opinion No. 20, "Accounting Changes."
Based upon our preliminary analysis to date, we do not expect the adoption of
SAB 101 to have a material impact on our financial position or results of
operations.

CENTENNIAL TECHNOLOGIES, INC.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - UNAUDITED

USE OF ESTIMATES

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting
principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to make
estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and
liabilities, and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of
the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses
during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

RECLASSIFICATIONS

Certain amounts in the quarter ended June 26, 1999 consolidated condensed
financial statements have been reclassified to conform to the current year
presentation.

2. CONCENTRATION OF CREDIT RISK

Financial instruments, which potentially subject us to concentration of
credit risk, consist principally of cash and cash equivalents and trade
receivables. At June 24, 2000, substantially all of our cash and cash
equivalents were held by one financial institution. We primarily sell and grant
credit to domestic and foreign original equipment manufacturers and
distributors. We extend credit based on an evaluation of the customer's
financial condition and generally do not require collateral. We monitor our
exposure for credit losses and maintain allowances for anticipated losses. At
June 24, 2000 and March 25, 2000, the allowance for doubtful accounts was
$200,000.

For the three months ended June 24, 2000, no customer represented more than
10% of our sales. For the three months ended June 26, 1999, two customers
represented 23% of our sales. Another customer engages several contract
manufacturers to complete the final assembly of a majority of its products for
which we have historically supplied PC cards. Our combined sales to this
customer and these contract manufacturers for the quarters ended June 24, 2000
and June 26, 1999 represented 15% and 19%, respectively, of our sales. One of
these contract manufacturers merged with one of our competitors, which could
result in a decrease of sales to this contract manufacturer. A relatively small
number of customers account for a significant percentage of our sales. If any of
these customers were to reduce significantly the amount of business they conduct
with us, it could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial
condition and results of operations.

Approximately 24% and 17% of our sales for the three months ended June 24,
2000 and June 26, 1999, respectively, were outside the United States, primarily
in several Western European countries, Israel and Canada. For the quarter ended
June 24, 2000, the United Kingdom represented 11% of our sales. No one country,
other than the United States, comprised more than 10% of our sales for the
quarter ended June 26, 1999.

3. EARNINGS PER SHARE

We compute net income per share in accordance with Statement of Financial
Accounting Standards No. 128, "Earnings Per Share." Basic net income per share
excludes any dilutive effect of options, warrants and convertible securities
(which in our case are primarily stock options and the Series B Convertible
Preferred Stock). Diluted net income per share includes all potentially dilutive
securities using the treasury stock method unless the effect of such potentially
dilutive securities is anti-dilutive.

On July 20, 1999, our shareholders approved a one-for-eight reverse stock
split of our common stock, which was effective as of the opening of the stock
markets based in New York on July 23, 1999. In the accompanying financial
statements, all per share amounts and numbers of shares have been restated to
reflect this reverse stock split of Centennial's common stock, which was
effective on July 23, 1999.

========= ========

We maintain levels of inventories that we believe are necessary based upon
assumptions concerning our growth, mix of sales, availability and pricing of raw
materials. Changes in those underlying assumptions could affect our estimates of
inventory valuation.

5. INVESTMENT IN CENTURY ELECTRONICS MANUFACTURING, INC.

Since October 1996, we have held an interest in Century Electronics
Manufacturing, Inc. ("Century"), a contract manufacturer. The carrying value of
our investment in Century is $1.7 million and consists of 667,000 shares of
Series B Convertible Preferred stock. The Series B Convertible Preferred Stock
is equivalent upon conversion to approximately 7%, non-diluted, of Century's
outstanding shares, is non-voting, has no dividend, and has a liquidation
preference of $4.0 million senior to the common shareholders and subordinate to
the holders of Century Series A Convertible Preferred Stock.

6. DEBT

On June 2, 2000, we entered into a credit agreement with a bank for a
revolving credit facility of $4.0 million. This arrangement contains certain
limitations and covenants, the most restrictive of which is a covenant regarding
the maintenance of our liquidity, as defined in the credit agreement. Available
borrowings are based upon a percentage of accounts receivable. The credit
facility is secured by substantially all of our assets. At June 24, 2000, we had
no outstanding borrowings under these credit facilities. This credit agreement
expires on July 31, 2002.

7. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

Beginning in March 2000, we began purchasing a significant portion of our
raw materials, mostly memory chips, directly from Intel Corporation, which holds
all of our issued and outstanding preferred stock. Purchases from Intel
Corporation in the first quarter of fiscal 2001 were $6.1 million of which $2.2
million is included in accounts payable as of June 24, 2000.

Included in Other Assets are loans totaling $389,750 to our President
and Chief Executive Officer. The loans are due and payable on July 25, 2001 and
bear interest at rates ranging from 5.8% to 6.45%.

8. CONTINGENCIES

LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

We are party from time to time to legal proceedings arising out of the
normal course of our business. We do not believe that any such legal
proceedings, either individually or in the aggregate, will have a material
adverse effect on our business, financial condition or results of operations. In
addition, we have been or are parties to other litigation as summarized below.

CLASS ACTION LITIGATION

We have been party to various class action lawsuits which were commenced
principally during the fiscal years ended March 31, 1997 and 1998. A substantial
number of the participants in these class action lawsuits participated in
settlements with us that became effective during the year ended March 31,1999.
The following discusses the history of these class action lawsuits, together
with the settlements that were entered into principally in the year ended March
31, 1999.

Since our announcement on February 11, 1997 that we were undertaking an
inquiry into the accuracy of our prior reported financial results, and that
preliminary information had raised questions as to whether reported results
contained material misstatements, approximately 40 purported class action
lawsuits were filed in or transferred to the United States District Court for
the District of Massachusetts. These complaints asserted claims against us and
our Board of Directors, officers and former independent accountants, among
others, under certain federal and state laws. These class action lawsuits were
purportedly brought by and on behalf of purchasers of our Common Stock (i)
between our initial public offering on April 12, 1994 and February 10, 1997 or
(ii) on February 25, 1997.

On February 9, 1998, these class action lawsuits were consolidated (the
"Consolidated Litigation"), and the lead counsel representing the plaintiffs in
the Consolidated Litigation filed a Stipulation of Settlement (the "Settlement
Agreement"), whereby we and certain of our officers and directors would be
released from liability arising from the allegations included in the
Consolidated Litigation. In return, we paid the plaintiffs in the Consolidated
Litigation $1.475 million in cash and issued to these plaintiffs 854,300 shares
or 37% of our Common Stock. We also adopted certain corporate governance
policies and procedures. The Settlement Agreement became effective on July 20,
1998. All shares issued in connection with the Consolidated Litigation are
included in the weighted average shares outstanding calculation from July 20,
1998 forward.

A number of class members elected not to participate in the Settlement
Agreement described above. In September 1999, we reached an agreement with a
number of these parties which calls for us to pay $500,000 in cash to settle
these claims (the "Additional Settlement Agreement"). For the remaining parties
who did not participate in the Settlement Agreement or the Additional Settlement
Agreement, we believe that the applicable Federal statue of limitations has
likely expired and that we do not have material exposure to these parties.
During the year ended March 25, 2000, we revised our estimate of the allocation
between cash and common stock of the $20 million provision for settlement of all
such shareholder litigation recorded during the year ended March 31, 1997
related to the Class Action Litigation. Accordingly, we reclassified certain
amounts in the year ended March 25, 2000 from the original settlement reserve to
accrued liabilities, representing the Additional Settlement Agreement described
above and a remaining estimate of the probable costs to be incurred in
connection with the remaining parties not a party to the Settlement Agreement or
the Additional Settlement Agreement. In the year ended March 25, 2000, we made a
partial payment of $188,000 in settlement of certain of these claims. We expect
the remaining amount to be paid in the second quarter of fiscal 2001.

<PAGE>
CENTENNIAL TECHNOLOGIES, INC.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - UNAUDITED

In the year ended March 25, 2000, the plaintiffs in the Consolidated
Litigation reached an agreement with our former Interim Chief Executive Officer,
Lawrence J. Ramaekers, and his employer, Jay Alix & Associates ("Jay Alix"),
regarding the plaintiffs' alleged claims against them. In the year ended March
25, 2000, we paid Jay Alix and Mr. Ramaekers $1.0 million for legal fees
incurred and Jay Alix and Mr. Ramaekers released any and all claims against our
affiliates, our directors and us.

SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION INVESTIGATION

In February 1997, we were notified that the Boston District Office of the
Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") was conducting an investigation of
us. We have cooperated fully with the SEC and believe, based on discussions with
the SEC, that we will be able to resolve the issues arising from the conduct of
former members of our senior management and the restatement of certain financial
statements in an acceptable manner, although we can not assure you that such
matters will be resolved in a manner acceptable to us.

WEBSECURE LITIGATION

On and after March 26, 1997, several complaints were filed against
WebSecure, certain officers, directors and underwriters of WebSecure, and us in
the United States District Court for the District of Massachusetts by plaintiffs
purporting to represent classes of shareholders who purchased stock of
WebSecure, Inc. ("WebSecure") between December 5, 1996 and February 27, 1997.
The claims against us included alleged violations of Sections 11 and 15 of the
Securities Act of 1933 (the "WebSecure Securities Litigation"). In fiscal 1997,
we established a reserve of $1.2 million in connection with the expected
settlement of this litigation.

In the year ended March 25, 2000, we settled the WebSecure Securities
Litigation in return for the issuance of 43,125 shares of our Common Stock, of
which 14,375 shares had been issued as of June 24, 2000, and the payment of
$50,000 for notice and administrative costs. In the year ended March 25, 2000,
we revised our estimate of the expected cost to resolve this matter based on the
final settlement amounts, which resulted in income of $940,000. All shares to be
issued in connection with this settlement are included in our weighted average
shares outstanding calculation from September 17, 1999 forward.

OTHER

On May 12, 2000, we received a complaint from Dennis M. O'Connor alleging
that he is owed approximately $485,000 in connection with legal services
provided by O'Connor, Broude & Aronson prior to May 12, 1997. Because of the
early stage of this litigation, we are not able to make an assessment as to its
likely outcome.

On July 13, 2000, we received a complaint from Thomas L. DePetrillo
alleging that he is owed approximately $1,000,000 in connection with securities
that Mr. DePetrillo claims were not delivered on a timely basis. This lawsuit
includes allegations substantially identical to those asserted by Mr. DePetrillo
in a lawsuit he filed against us in July 1998. That lawsuit was vigorously
defended by us and was dismissed, without prejudice, in May 1999. Based on the
facts presently known to us, we intend to vigorously defend this lawsuit.
However, because of the early stage of this litigation, we are not able to make
an assessment as to its likely outcome.

OVERVIEW

GENERAL

We primarily design, manufacture and market an extensive line of PC cards
used primarily by OEMs in industrial and commercial applications. Our PC cards
provide added functionality to devices containing microprocessors by supplying
increased storage capacity, communications capabilities and programmed software
for specialized applications.

The following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with
the unaudited consolidated condensed financial statements and notes thereto
included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and in conjunction with
our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 25, 2000.

NET SALES.

Net sales increased 108% to $13.9 million in the first quarter of fiscal
2001 ended June 24, 2000 compared to $6.7 million for the same period a year
ago. The increase in sales was primarily due to a 55% increase in the average
selling price of our products sold in the first quarter of fiscal 2001 as
compared to the first quarter of fiscal 2000, combined with a 20% increase in
the volume of PC cards sold during the same period. Our December 1999
acquisition of the flash memory card business of Intel Corporation combined with
the addition of new customers contributed to the increase in the volume of PC
cards sold during the first quarter of fiscal 2000. Included in sales for the
quarter ended June 24, 2000 is approximately $1.0 million of sales of electronic
components that resulted in a gross margin of approximately $0.5 million.
Increasing component costs, combined with a relative increase in the product mix
toward products dollar products, contributed to the increase in the average
selling price of our products. Although we anticipate strong revenue growth for
both our second quarter and fiscal 2001 compared to the comparable periods of
fiscal 2000, based on current market conditions, we cannot assure you that if
component costs continue to rise we will be able to continue to increase our
average selling price or that competitive pricing pressures will not adversely
affect the average selling price.

We are currently experiencing supply shortages, particularly with respect
to computer memory chips used to manufacture PC cards. Currently, certain memory
chips, which are integral components of our products, are on industry-wide
allocation by suppliers. We have been able to purchase memory chips at
reasonable prices to allow us to meet most of our customer orders and we believe
we will be able to meet most of our customers' orders for the remainder of
fiscal 2001. At this time we are unable to determine what the impact will be
thereafter. If the current shortages continue or become more severe, such
shortages will prevent us from continuing to grow our business as we currently
contemplate and may have a material adverse effect on our business, financial
condition and results of operations. We also believe some of our competitors
have had difficulty obtaining certain components and our success in obtaining
such components has given us a competitive advantage. When these competitors are
able to more readily purchase such components, competitive pressures may have an
adverse effect on our revenues and gross margins.

For the three months ended June 24, 2000, no customer represented more than
10% of our sales. For the three months ended June 26, 1999, two customers
represented 23% of our sales. Another customer engages several contract
manufacturers to complete the final assembly of a majority of its products for
which we have historically supplied PC cards. Our combined sales to this
customer and these contract manufacturers for the first quarter of fiscal 2001
and 2000 represented 15% and 19%, respectively, of our sales. One of these
contract manufacturers merged with one of our competitors, which could result in
a decrease of sales to this contract manufacturer. A relatively small number of
customers account for a significant percentage of our sales. If any of these
customers were to reduce significantly the amount of business they conduct with
us, it could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition
and results of operations.

GROSS PROFIT.

Gross profit increased 148% to $5.3 million for the three months ended June
24, 2000 compared to $2.1 million for the same period a year ago. Gross margins
were 38% for the quarter ended June 24, 2000 compared to 32% for the quarter
ended June 26, 1999. The increase in gross profit is attributable to the
increase in revenues driven by higher average selling prices and increased
volume. The higher gross margin rates are primarily due to increased
efficiencies related to the higher revenue level combined with a relative
increase in the product mix toward higher margin products and higher average
selling prices. Based on current market conditions, we anticipate that gross
margins will continue to be strong during fiscal 2001, although competitive
pressures, and supply shortages, could adversely impact our gross margins.

RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT.

Our research and development expenditures increased 272% to $0.8 million
or 5% of sales for the three months ended June 24, 2000 compared to $0.2 million
or 3% of sales for the quarter ended June 26, 1999. The higher research and
development costs are generally due to an increase in personnel and higher
engineering material expenditures combined with an increased percentage of

12
<PAGE>

employees focused on research and development projects. Based upon our present
plans, we believe our quarterly research and development expenditures should
remain constant or be somewhat lower in absolute dollars for the remainder of
fiscal 2001.

SELLING, GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE.

Selling, general and administrative expenses were $2.3 million or 17% of
sales for the quarter ended June 24, 2000 compared to $1.8 million or 27% of
sales in the same period a year ago. The increase in the amount of these
expenses is primarily due to a bonus to the Chief Executive Officer. We
anticipate that selling, general and administrative expenses will increase
slightly in absolute dollars on a quarterly basis for the remainder of fiscal
2001.

OTHER INCOME.

Net interest expense was $33,000 for the quarter ended June 24, 2000
compared to net interest income of $67,000 for the quarter ended June 26, 1999.
The change to net interest expense is due to interest expense on the note
payable combined with less interest income to due lower cash balances.

EARNINGS PER SHARE.

On July 20, 1999, our shareholders approved a one-for-eight reverse stock
split of our common stock, which was effective as of the opening of the stock
markets on July 23, 1999. All per share amounts and numbers of shares have been
restated to reflect the reverse stock split. In December 1999, we issued
preferred stock to Intel Corporation related to the acquisition of its flash
memory card business. As a result of this transaction, diluted weighted average
outstanding shares increased by 600,000 shares at June 24, 2000 as compared to
June 26, 1999. Additionally, the effect of stock options increased diluted
weighted average outstanding shares by approximately 200,000.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Since inception, we have financed our operating activities primarily from
public and private offerings of equity securities, loans from financial
institutions and positive cash flows from operations. At June 24, 2000, we had
cash and cash equivalents of $2.9 million. The $4.0 million promissory note, and
related interest, is due and payable on December 29, 2000. We believe the
existing cash and cash equivalents, and available financing arrangements will be
sufficient to meet our current anticipated working capital and capital
expenditure requirements for the foreseeable future, including satisfaction of
the $4.0 million note obligation to Intel Corporation.

OPERATING ACTIVITIES

During the first quarter of fiscal 2000, working capital increased $1.9
million to $13.1 million at June 24, 2000, compared to working capital of $11.3
million at March 25, 2000. This increase is due principally to the positive
operating income of $2.1 million.

INVESTING TRANSACTIONS

Net capital expenditures amounted to $96,000 in the quarter ended June 24,
2000 compared to $150,000 in the quarter ended June 26, 1999.

FACTORS THAT MAY AFFECT FUTURE RESULTS

From time to time, information we provided or statements made by our
employees may contain forward-looking information. Our actual results may differ
materially from those projections or suggestions made in such forward-looking
information as a result of various potential risks and uncertainties including,
but not limited to, the factors discussed below. We assume no obligation to
update these forward-looking statements to reflect event or changes in
circumstances after the date hereof.

OUR INDUSTRY IS EXPERIENCING SHORTAGES IN THE SUPPLY OF CERTAIN COMPONENTS WHICH
MAY IMPACT OUR ABILITY TO FULFILL ORDERS AND MAINTAIN OUR MARGINS ON OUR SALES.

We purchase certain key components from single source vendors for which
alternative sources are not currently available. We do not maintain long-term
supply agreements with our vendors. The inability to develop alternative sources
for these single source components or to obtain sufficient quantities of
components could result in delays or reductions in product shipments, or higher
prices for these components, or both, any of which could materially and
adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations. We
cannot assure you that one or more of our vendors will not reduce supplies to
us.

CHANGES IN OUR ASSUMPTIONS CONCERNING OUR GROWTH, MIX OF SALES, AVAILABILITY AND
PRICING OF RAW MATERIALS COULD ADVERSELY AFFECT OUR ESTIMATES OF INVENTORY
VALUATION.

We maintain levels of inventories that we believe are appropriate based
upon assumptions concerning our growth, mix of sales, and availability and
pricing of raw materials. Changes in those underlying assumptions could have a
material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of
operations.

WE DEPEND ON A SMALL NUMBER OF LARGE CUSTOMERS TO PURCHASE OUR PRODUCTS, THE
LOSS OF ONE OR MORE OF WHICH COULD ADVERSELY IMPACT OUR RESULTS.

A relatively small number of customers have accounted for a significant
percentage of our sales. If these customers were to reduce significantly the
amount of business they conduct with us, it could have a material adverse effect
on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

We generally enter into individual purchase orders with our customers and
have no firm long-term volume commitments from any of our major customers. We
have experienced fluctuations in order levels from period to period and expect
that we will continue to experience such fluctuations in the future. Our
business, financial condition and results of operations depend in a significant
part on our ability to obtain orders from new customers, as well as on the
financial condition and success of these customers. Therefore, any adverse
factors affecting any of our customers or their customers could have a material
adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.
Frequent mergers, consolidations, acquisitions, corporate restructurings and

14
<PAGE>

changes in management characterize the industries served by us, and we have,
from time to time, experienced reductions in purchase orders from customers as a
result of such events. We cannot assure you that such events involving our
customers will not result in a significant reduction in the level of our sales
to such customers or the termination of our relationship with such customers. In
addition, the percentage of our sales to individual customers can and do
fluctuate from period to period. Customer orders can be canceled and volume
levels can be changed or delayed. The timely replacement of canceled, delayed,
or reduced orders with other customer orders cannot be assured. These risks are
exacerbated because a majority of our sales are to customers in the electronics
industry, which is subject to rapid technological change and product
obsolescence. The electronics industry is also subject to economic cycles and
has experienced, and is likely to experience, fluctuations in demand. We
anticipate that a significant portion of our sales for the foreseeable future
will continue to be concentrated in a small number of customers in the
electronics industry.

INTENSE COMPETITION COULD REDUCE OUR MARKET SHARE AND HARM OUR FINANCIAL
PERFORMANCE.

The market in which we compete is intensely competitive. We compete with
manufacturers of PC cards and related products, including M-Systems Flash Disk
Pioneers Ltd., SanDisk Corporation, Simple Technologies, Smart Modular
Technologies, Inc., Viking Components, Inc. and White Electronic Designs
Corporation as well as with electronic component manufacturers who also
manufacture PC cards, including Hitachi Semiconductor, Inc., Mitsubishi Electric
Corporation and Sharp Electronics Corporation. Certain of these competitors
supply us with raw materials, including electronic components, which are
occasionally, and are at present, subject to industry-wide allocation. These
competitors may have the ability to manufacture products at lower costs than we
can as a result of their higher levels of integration. In addition, many of our
competitors or potential competitors have greater name recognition, larger
installed bases of customers, more extensive engineering, manufacturing,
marketing, distribution and support capabilities and greater financial,
technological and personnel resources than we do. We expect competition to
increase in the future from existing competitors and from other companies that
may enter our existing or future markets with similar or alternative products
that may be less costly or provide additional features. We believe that our
ability to compete successfully depends on a number of factors, including the
following:

<TABLE>
<S> <C>
o product quality and performance o order turnaround
o provision of competitive design capabilities o timely response to advances in technology
o timing of new product introductions by o production efficiency
us, our customers and competitors o number and nature of our competitors
o price in a given market
o ability to obtain raw materials o general market and economic conditions

</TABLE>

In addition, market conditions may lead to intensified price competition
for our products and services, which could materially and adversely affect our
business, financial condition and results of operations. There can be no
assurance that we will compete successfully in the future.

WE HAVE HISTORICALLY RELIED ON ONE PRODUCT LINE AND REDUCED DEMAND FOR THIS
PRODUCT LINE WOULD HARM OUR FINANCIAL PERFORMANCE AND FINANCIAL CONDITION.

PC cards and related services constituted the vast majority of our sales
over the past few years. The market for PC cards is continually evolving and we
cannot assure you that computing and electronic equipment that utilizes PC cards
will not be modified to render our PC cards obsolete or otherwise have the
effect of reducing demand for our PC cards. In addition, we face intense
competition from competitors that have greater financial, marketing and
technological resources than we have. This competition may reduce demand for our
PC cards. Decreased demand for the our PC cards as a result of technological
change, competition or other factors would have a material adverse effect on our
business, financial condition and results of operations.

REDUCTIONS IN OUR AVERAGE SALES PRICE AS A RESULT OF PRICING COMPETITION OR
CHANGES IN OUR PRODUCT MIX MAY REDUCE OUR GROSS MARGIN AND HARM OUR OVERALL
FINANCIAL PERFORMANCE.

Although we have recently experienced an increase in our average sales
prices, we have in the past experienced, and may in the future experience,
declining average sales prices for our products. The markets in which we compete
are characterized by intense competition. Therefore, we expect to incur
increasing pricing pressures from our customers in future periods, which may
result in declines in average sales prices for our products. We believe that we
must continue to achieve manufacturing cost reductions, develop new products
that incorporate customized features and increase our volume of PC card sales in
order to offset the effect of possible declining average sales prices. If we are
not able to achieve such cost reductions, develop new customized products or
increase our unit sales volumes, our business, financial condition and results
of operations could be materially adversely impacted. In addition, a relative
increase in the mix of our business towards lower margin, non-custom PC cards or
other products could have a material adverse effect on our business.

15
<PAGE>

OUR QUARTERLY RESULTS MAY FLUCTUATE SIGNIFICANTLY AS A RESULT OF A VARIETY OF
FACTORS WHICH MAY NEGATIVELY IMPACT THE MARKET PRICE OF OUR COMMON STOCK.

Our quarterly and annual operating results have fluctuated significantly in
the past and we expect that they will continue to fluctuate in the future. This
fluctuation is a result of a variety of factors, including the following:

<TABLE>
<S> <C>
o timing of receipt and delivery of o competitive pricing pressures
significant orders for our products o changes in raw material costs
o changes in customer and product mix o production difficulties
o quality of our products o write-downs of investments in other companies
o exchange rate fluctuations o market acceptance of new or enhanced versions
o litigation settlements and revisions of of products
estimates in connection with legal matters o raw material shortages

</TABLE>

Other factors, some of which are beyond our control, may also cause
fluctuations in our results of operations. We have short lead times from
customers, and accordingly do not have a significant backlog. Additionally, as
is the case with many high technology companies, a significant portion of our
orders and shipments often occur towards the end of a quarter. As a result,
revenues for a quarter are not predictable, and our revenues may shift from one
quarter to the next, having a significant effect on reported results.

OUR TRADING PRICE MAY FLUCTUATE SIGNIFICANTLY WHICH MAY NEGATIVELY IMPACT OUR
STOCKHOLDERS' ABILITY TO OBTAIN LIQUIDITY AT ACCEPTABLE LEVELS, IF AT ALL.

The trading price of our common stock may fluctuate widely in response to,
among other things, the following:

<TABLE>
<S> <C>
o quarter-to-quarter operating results o industry conditions
o awards of orders to us o new product or product development
or our competitors announcements by us or our competitors
o changes in earnings estimates by analysts o resolution of pending SEC investigation

</TABLE>

We cannot assure you that our future performance will meet the expectations
of analysts or investors. In addition, the volatility of the stock markets may
cause wide fluctuations in trading prices of securities of high technology
companies. Our common stock is currently traded on the over-the-counter Bulletin
Board, which we believe has resulted in a minimal amount of analyst coverage and
liquidity.

THE LOSS OF OUR SENIOR MANAGEMENT OR OTHER KEY PERSONNEL COULD ADVERSELY AFFECT
OUR BUSINESS.

Our success depends to a significant degree upon the efforts and abilities
of members of our senior management and other key personnel, including technical
personnel. The loss of any of these individuals could have a material adverse
effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations. Our
business also depends upon our ability to continue to attract and retain senior
managers and skilled technical employees. Failure to attract and retain such
personnel could materially and adversely affect our business, financial
condition and results of operations.

FAILURE TO CONTINUE TO DEVELOP ENHANCEMENTS TO OUR PRODUCTS, NEW APPLICATIONS
AND FEATURES THAT RESPOND TO THE CHANGING NEEDS OF OUR CUSTOMERS, RAPID
TECHNOLOGICAL CHANGE AND ADVANCES INTRODUCED BY OUR COMPETITORS WILL IMPAIR OUR
ABILITY TO INCREASE OUR MARKET SHARE AND EXPAND OUR BUSINESS.

Rapid technological change, evolving industry standards and rapid product
obsolescence characterize the markets for our products. Rapid technological
development substantially shortens product life cycles, and our growth and
future success will depend upon our ability, on a timely basis, to develop and
introduce new products, to enhance existing products and to adapt products for
various industrial applications and equipment platforms. In addition, even after
customer acceptance of these products, we will need to be able to promptly
implement enhancements and adaptations in response to the same industry drivers.
We have limited resources compared to our competitors and focus our development
efforts at any given time to a relatively narrow scope of development projects.

16
<PAGE>

We cannot assure you that we will select the correct projects for development or
that our development efforts will be successful. In addition, no assurance can
be given that we will not experience difficulties that could delay or prevent
the successful development, introduction or marketing of new products, that new
products and product enhancements will meet the requirements of the marketplace
and achieve market acceptance, or that our current or future products will
conform to applicable industry standards. If we are unable to introduce new
products or enhancements on a timely basis, our business, financial condition
and results of operations could be adversely affected.

WE DERIVE REVENUE FROM OUR INTERNATIONAL OPERATIONS AND ARE SUBJECT TO THE
GENERAL RISKS OF DOING BUSINESS ABROAD, AS WELL AS FOREIGN CURRENCY EXCHANGE
FLUCTUATIONS, EACH OF WHICH MAY ADVERSELY IMPACT OUR OPERATIONS AND FINANCIAL
PERFORMANCE.

For the first quarter of fiscal 2001 and 2000, we derived 24% and 17%,
respectively, of our sales from outside the United States. Our international
operations are subject to the risks of doing business abroad, including currency
fluctuations, export duties, import controls and trade barriers, restrictions on
the transfer of funds, greater difficulty in accounts receivable collection,
burdens of complying with a wide variety of foreign laws and, in certain parts
of the world, political instability.

Beginning in 1999, 11 member countries of the European union established
fixed conversion rates between their existing sovereign currencies and adopted
the Euro as their common legal currency. During the three-year transition, the
Euro will be available for non-cash transactions and legacy currencies will
remain legal tender. We are continuing to assess the Euro's impact on our
business. We are reviewing the ability of our accounting and information systems
to handle the conversion, the legal and contractual implications of agreements,
as well as pricing strategies. We expect that any additional modifications to
our operations and systems will be completed on a timely basis and do not
believe the conversion will have a material adverse impact on our operations.
However, there can be no assurance that we will be able to modify successfully
all systems and contracts to comply with Euro requirements.

WE MAY BE UNABLE TO ADEQUATELY PROTECT OUR PROPRIETARY RIGHTS, WHICH COULD
SIGNIFICANTLY HARM OUR ABILITY TO GAIN MARKET SHARE AND INCREASE OUR REVENUES.

Our products require technical know-how to engineer and manufacture. To the
extent proprietary technology is involved, we rely upon trade secrets that we
seek to protect, in part, through confidentiality agreements with certain
employees, consultants and other parties. There can be no assurance that these
agreements will not be breached, that we will have adequate remedies for any
breach, or that our trade secrets will not otherwise become known to, or
independently developed by our existing or potential competitors. We
historically have not sought to protect our proprietary information through
patents or registered trademarks. There can be no assurance that our products
will not infringe on patents held by others. We may be involved from
time-to-time in litigation to determine the enforceability, scope and validity
of our rights. Litigation could result in substantial cost to us and could
divert the attention and time of our management and technical personnel from our
operations.

We currently license certain proprietary and patented technology from third
parties. There can be no assurance that we will be able to continue to license
such technology, that such licenses will be or remain exclusive or that any
patented technology licensed by us will provide meaningful protection from
competitors. In the event that a competitor's products were to infringe on
patents licensed by us, it would be costly for us to enforce our infringement
action and such an action would divert funds and management resources from our
operations.

OUR BUSINESS IS SUBJECT TO ENVIRONMENTAL REGULATIONS WHICH, IF NOT COMPLIED
WITH, COULD IMPAIR OUR BUSINESS, FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
AND RESTRICT OUR ABILITY TO EXPAND OR ENHANCE OUR FACILITIES.

We are subject to a variety of environmental regulations relating to the
use, storage and disposal of hazardous chemicals used during our manufacturing
processes. Any failure by us to comply with present and future regulations could
subject us to significant liabilities. In addition, such regulations could
restrict our ability to expand our facilities or could require us to acquire
costly equipment or to incur other significant expenses in order to comply with
such regulations.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

Our financial instruments consist principally of cash and cash equivalents,
accounts receivable, accounts payable and other accrued expenses. We believe
that all of the carrying amounts approximate fair value.

CLASS ACTION LITIGATION

SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION INVESTIGATION

In February 1997, we were notified that the Boston District Office of the
Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") was conducting an investigation of
us. We cooperated fully with the SEC and believe, based on discussions with the
SEC, that we will be able to resolve the issues arising from the conduct of
former members of our senior management and the restatement of certain financial
statements in an acceptable manner, although we can not assure you that such
matters will be resolved in a manner acceptable to us.

WEBSECURE LITIGATION

In the year ended March 25, 2000, we settled the WebSecure Securities
Litigation in return for the issuance of 43,125 shares of our Common Stock, of
which 14,375 shares had been issued as of June 24, 2000, and the payment of
$50,000 for notice and administrative costs. In the year ended March 25, 2000,
we revised our estimate of the expected cost to resolve this matter based on the
final settlement amounts, which resulted in income of $940,000. All shares to be
issued in connection with this settlement are included in the weighted average
shares outstanding calculation from September 17, 1999 forward.
