NOTES TO CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)
NOTE A - BASIS OF PRESENTATION
The accompanying unaudited Condensed Financial Statements have been
prepared in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-QSB and, therefore,
do not include all information and footnotes necessary for a fair
presentation of financial position in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principles. The unaudited Condensed Financial Statements contain
all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring adjustments) which
are, in the opinion of Management, necessary to a fair statement of the
results for the period presented. The interim results are not necessarily
indicative of the results which may be expected for the full year. The
subject Condensed Financial Statements should be read in conjunction with
the summary of significant accounting policies set forth in Note 1 to the
Financial Statements included in the Company's Annual Report to
Shareholders for the year ended April 30, 1995.
Depreciation of the original building is spread over a 50 year life
while equipment is depreciated over useful lives ranging from 5 to 10 years
depending on its type.
NOTE B - PROVISIONS FOR INCOME TAX
Local Income Tax is not provided for until the year end. however, if
such provision had been made it would have amounted to less than $20,000.00
for the three month period.
NOTE C - REPAYMENT OF LONG TERM DEBT
Even through the outstanding debt with the Government Development Bank
and PRIDCO was to be amortised monthly until 1995 the Company elected to
make early repayment on September 1, 1993 thus avoiding further interest at
10%.

The Company had another excellent quarter recording sales increases in
each of the three months maintaining the trend established in the previous
quarter. The three year contract with union employees signed in December
'94 containing average increases of less than 3% over the contract period
has helped the Company to remain competitive in its market segment. In
addition to labor costs the Company has been very successful in keeping
expenses under control and, as a result, a considerable proportion of the
sales increase has been reflected in the bottom line. As mentioned in
earlier reports the Company has eliminated all long term debt and interest
expense due to the strong cash flows generated from operations.
The Company's primary source of working capital is from funds provided
from operations. Working capital increased over the nine month period by
$904,910 and, as mentioned above, all long term debt has been repaid. The
Company believes that it's excess cash from operations will be sufficient
to finance it's long and short term capital needs including the payment of
accrued dividends.
