                   Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

1.   Basis of Presentation

The accompanying consolidated financial statements, which should be read in
conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and footnotes thereto
included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended
March 31, 2000, are unaudited (except for the March 31, 2000 consolidated
balance sheet, which was derived from the Company's audited financial
statements), but have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted
accounting principles for interim financial information.  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 only of normal recurring adjustments)
considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Certain prior
quarter amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current year
presentation.

Operating results for the three months ended June 30, 2000 are not necessarily
indicative of the results that may be expected for the entire fiscal year ending
March 31, 2001.

5.   Restructuring Costs

During the third quarter of fiscal 2000, the Company announced plans to shut
down its operations located in Salt Lake City and move those operations to its
corporate headquarters in Dallas.  The move is expected to be completed by the
end of the third quarter of fiscal 2001.  This shutdown impacted approximately
94 employees.  In conjunction with this plan, the Company recorded a pretax
charge of $2.6 million, all of which was included in restructuring costs.  This
charge included $1.3 million in severance costs, $0.7 million in asset
impairment write-downs, and $0.6 million in leasehold cancellation charges.  The
asset impairment charge was recorded in fiscal 2000 to write down the carrying
value of the fixed assets to their estimated fair market value.  The Company is
continuing to depreciate these assets from their fair market value over the
remaining useful life of the Salt Lake City location, currently expected to be
six additional months.  The leasehold cancellation charges represent estimated
costs to terminate leasehold agreements for the Company's Salt Lake City
facilities.

During the third quarter of fiscal 2000, the Company also announced its
intention to dispose of its Synergy division. Approximately 26 employees were
affected by this action. A majority of these employees left the Company by
January 31, 2000.  In conjunction with this announcement, the Company recorded a
charge of $1.1 million, of which $0.8 million was included in restructuring
costs and $0.3 million was included in cost of sales.  This charge included $0.6
million in severance costs for affected employees, $0.3 million to write down
Synergy inventory to net realizable value, and $0.2 million for other disposal
costs.

Through the first quarter of fiscal 2001, payments have been made to terminated
employees, for disposal costs, and for net lease charges on vacated facilities.

                                                                               8

ITEM 2.  MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS
OF OPERATIONS

     The following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with
the Consolidated Financial Statements and Notes thereto included in the
Company's 2000 Annual Report on Form 10-K. The Company believes that all
necessary adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring adjustments) have
been included in the amounts stated below to present fairly the following
quarterly information. Quarterly operating results have varied significantly in
the past and can be expected to vary in the future. Results of operations for
any particular quarter are not necessarily indicative of results of operations
for a full year.


Forward-Looking Information

     Certain information contained herein contains forward-looking statements
(as defined in the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995) regarding
future events or the future financial performance of the Company, and are
subject to a number of risks and other factors which could cause the actual
results of the Company to differ materially from those contained in and
anticipated by the forward-looking statements.  These risks, assumptions, and
uncertainties include the limited operating history of the Panja 1000; our
strategic alliances; the ability to develop distribution channels for the Panja
1000; the ability to obtain compelling content; our dependence on suppliers,
dealers, and distributors; the complexity of the Panja 1000; ongoing research
and development; our reliance on third party manufacturers; dependence on key
personnel; the lack of an industry standard; reliance on others for technology;
our ability to protect our intellectual property; the continued growth of the
Internet; the market for Internet appliances; the acceptance of broadband
services; the quick product life cycle; the resources necessary to compete; the
possible effect of government regulations; possible liability for copyright
violations on the Internet with the use of our products and other risks
referenced from time to time in the Company's filings with the Securities and
Exchange Commission. The forward-looking statements contained herein are
necessarily dependent upon assumptions, estimates and data that may be incorrect
or imprecise. Accordingly, any forward-looking statements included herein do not
purport to be predictions of future events or circumstances and may not be
realized. Forward-looking statements contained herein include, but are not
limited to, forecasts, projections and statements relating to inflation, future
acquisitions and anticipated capital expenditures.  All forecasts and
projections in the report are based on management's current expectations of the
Company's near term results, based on current information available pertaining
to the Company, including the aforementioned risk factors.  Actual results could
differ materially.


OVERVIEW

     Panja develops, manufactures and markets equipment designed to extend
Internet information and entertainment content beyond the personal computer, as
well as control systems in both the enterprise and residential settings which
allows end users to control a variety of electronic devices from a centralized
location. The Company's WebLinx software also provides the flexibility of
allowing the end user to control these systems via the internet from any remote
location. The number of devices that the Company's systems can control exceeds
20,000.

Residential Systems

     The Company's premium line of custom residential integrated control systems
offers consumers the ability to control most electronic aspects of their homes,
such as security systems, lighting systems, and the components of their home
entertainment systems.  These systems have predominantly been installed in
upscale homes, and the installation process involves technicians working on-site
to maximize the control systems' interoperability with the home's other
electronic devices.

     In 1999, the Company launched its Broadband Consumer Products Group to
leverage its proprietary technology in applications that take advantage of the
surge in residential broadband access. These new products allow the data, video
and audio content brought to the home by broadband access to be distributed to
the

                                                                              10
<PAGE>

entertainment devices contained within the home. This distribution of
information can be contoured by each end user to their particular needs or
wants.

Enterprise Systems

     The Company's enterprise products enable users to operate, as a single
system, a broad range of electronic equipment in a variety of settings. The
products are primarily used in board rooms, training rooms, and auditoriums.
However, because of the flexibility in design and ease of use, these systems are
also installed in a number of sport facilities, theme parks, museums, and other
settings which require the control of a wide variety of electronic equipment,
such as video equipment, audio equipment, lighting equipment, heating and air-
conditioning equipment, camera equipment, and security systems.

     The Company's quarterly operating results have varied significantly in the
past, and can be expected to vary in the future. These quarterly fluctuations
have been the result of a number of factors. These factors include seasonal
purchasing of the Company's dealers and distributors, particularly from
international distributors, OEMs, and other large customers; sales and marketing
expenses related to entering new markets; the timing of new product
introductions by the Company and its competitors; fluctuations in commercial and
residential construction and remodeling activity; and changes in product or
distribution channel mix. In addition, the Company generally experiences higher
selling and marketing expenses during the first two fiscal quarters of each year
due to costs associated with three of the Company's largest trade shows.

     The Company's current products are sold to dealers (typically audio/visual
installer and integrators) or to distributors in the international market. The
Company principally relies on these 1,600 dealers of electronic and audiovisual
equipment to sell, install, support and service its products in the United
States. Internationally, the Company relies on a network of exclusive
distributors to sell its products. Because of the increase in broadband access
to the home, the Company believes that the potential exists for an increase in
the consumer market for its products.  Accordingly, the Company is focusing on
adding new distribution channels which will provide its equipment in an easy to
install configuration that will parallel the increase of the distribution of
information to the home via broadband access.

     The Company's U. S. dealers pursue a wide variety of projects that can
range from small conference rooms/boardrooms to very large projects in
universities, government facilities, amusement parks, or corporate training
facilities. The Company's international distributors tend to order in large
quantities to take advantage of volume discounts the Company offers and to
economize on shipping costs. These international orders are not received at the
same time each year. Notwithstanding the difficulty in forecasting future sales
and the relatively small level of backlog at any given time, the Company
generally must plan production, order components, and undertake its development,
selling and marketing activities, and other commitments months in advance.
Accordingly, any shortfall in revenues in a given quarter may impact the
Company's results of operations.

     The Company purchases components that comprise approximately 28% to 32% of
its cost of sales from foreign vendors. The primary components purchased are
standard power supplies and displays for touch panels. Historically, the Company
has not had any significant cost issues related to price changes due to
purchasing from foreign vendors. However, there can be no assurance that this
will be the case in the future. The Company has experienced delays of up to
three weeks in receiving materials from foreign vendors. However, the Company
takes this issue into consideration when orders are placed and, therefore, this
concern has not, in the past, significantly impacted the Company's ability to
meet production and customer delivery deadlines. However, a significant shortage
of or interruption in the supply of foreign components could have a material
adverse effect on the Company's results of operations.

     The Company's selling and marketing expenses category also includes
customer service and support. The engineering department of the Company is
involved in research and development as well as customer service and support.
Additionally, the Company utilizes sales support teams, which are focused on
specific geographic regions or customer categories. These teams include sales
personnel, system designers, and technical support personnel, all of whom
indirectly participate in research and development activities by establishing
close relationships with the Company's customers and by individually responding
to customer-expressed needs.

                                                                              11

<PAGE>

     Overall, the Company's revenue increased 17.6% compared to the same quarter
last year.  Enterprise sales grew 16.5% compared to the same quarter of last
year, consisting primarily of growth in domestic sales of 12% and growth in
international sales of 55%, offset by a decline in OEM sales of 64% and a
decline in Synergy sales of 51%. The growth in international sales was related
to a combination of improved market conditions in most global regions, and the
Company's aggressive involvement in direct and distributor sales and marketing
activities. Synergy sales have been adversely affected by competitive factors
that resulted in the prior year announcement to dispose of the Synergy division.
Residential sales grew 21% compared to the same quarter of last year, consisting
of an 18% increase in existing residential applications, and initial sales of
the Company's consumer Internet appliance products. The growth in residential
sales is related to continued demand for the Company's home automation and
control products, as well as favorable economic conditions in key markets.

     Gross margins for the quarter ending June 30, 2000 were 53.7% compared to
55.7% for the same quarter last year. The decline in gross margins is primarily
related to increased sales of lower margin products, as well as increased
competitive pricing pressures. The Company is focused on improving its gross
margins and as a result is utilizing outside manufacturing sources more
predominantly. The Company believes this outsourcing will allow it to sustain
its growth without the need to significantly expand its current manufacturing
space and increase overhead.

     The Company has significantly increased its product development efforts in
order to design hardware that allows the distribution of internet information to
non-PC devices.   As a result, the Company incurred an increase in research and
development expenses of 86% over the first quarter of fiscal 2000.  The Company
also committed significant marketing resources to the introduction of these
internet related products, as well as resources designed to increase the
visibility of its existing products. As a result, selling and marketing expenses
grew 17% from the first quarter of fiscal 2000. However, selling and marketing
expenses declined as a percentage of net sales, representing 37.5% of net sales
for the first quarter of fiscal 2001 versus 37.8% for the first quarter of
fiscal 2000, due to strong sales in the current quarter. General and
administrative expenses grew 54% from the first quarter of fiscal 2000, and
represented 9.5% of net sales for the first quarter of fiscal 2001 versus 7.3%
for the first quarter of fiscal 2000. The increase in general and administrative
expenses is primarily related to an increase in headcount and related expenses,
as well as an increase in recurring legal and accounting fees, resulting from
the Company's growth.

     The Company's effective tax rate remained relatively stable, increasing to
34% from 33% for the same quarter last year.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

     For the past three years, the Company has satisfied its operating cash
requirements principally through cash flow from operations and borrowings from
its line of credit. In the three months ended June 30, 2000, the Company used
$390,000 of cash in operations. Capital expenditures amounted to $1,052,000, and
were primarily related to costs incurred related to the Company's Enterprise
Resource Planning system and for routine purchases of computers and equipment.

     The Company has a $7.5 million revolving line of credit agreement that
expires on September 30, 2000.  It is expected that this line of credit will be
renewed at that time.  The line of credit provides for interest at our choice of
the prime lending rate or 2.5% over the London Inter-Bank Offered Rate. At June
30, 2000, $1.8 million was outstanding under the revolving loan agreement.

     We believe that cash flow from operations, our existing cash resources, and
funds available under our revolving loan facility will be adequate to fund our
working capital and capital expenditure requirements for at least the next 12
months. An important element of the Company's business strategy has been, and
continues to be, the acquisition of similar businesses and complementary
products and technology, and the integration of such businesses, products and
technology into the Company's existing operations. Such future acquisitions, if
they occur, may require that the Company seek additional funds.

                                                                              13

Contingencies

     The Company is party from time to time to ordinary litigation incidental to
its business, none of which is expected to have a material adverse effect on the
results of operations, financial position or liquidity of the Company.

Year 2000 Update

     Through the first six months of the year 2000, our operations are
functioning normally and have not experienced any significant issues associated
with the Year 2000 problem.  While we are encouraged by the success of our Year
2000 efforts and that of our customers and partners, we will continue to offer
Year 2000 support to customers and monitor our own operations for compliance.
