NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

In the opinion of the Company, the accompanying unaudited consolidated condensed
financial statements contain all adjustments (consisting of only normal 
recurring items) necessary to present fairly its financial position as of 
August 31, 1996 and the results of operations and cash flows for the three-
month periods and nine-month periods ended August 31, 1996 and 1995. 

Amounts for interim periods are unaudited.  Amounts for the year ended November
30, 1995 were derived from audited financial statements included in the 1995
Annual Report to Stockholders.

Fully diluted loss per share is considered to be the same as primary loss per
share, since the effect of certain potentially dilutive securities would be
antidilutive.

Certain prior year amounts in these financial statements have been reclassified
to conform with current year presentation.

See financial statements and accompanying notes in the Company's 1995 Annual
Report.

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

Sales for the third quarter reflected an 11.5% increase over those recorded in
the same quarter in the prior year with international sales up 33.8% and 
domestic demand remaining strong.

SALES:  Consolidated sales for the fiscal 1996 third quarter were $59,044,000
versus sales of $52,935,000 reported in the comparable period in 1995.  Third
quarter sales were 19.2% over the $49,548,000 reported in the fiscal 1996 first
quarter and 2.5% over the $57,620,000 reported in the fiscal 1996 second 
quarter.  Sales of $166,212,000 for the first nine months were up 8.7% over
sales of $152,907,000 reported in the same period last year.  The improvement 
in sales is attributable principally to the acceptance of new products by the
domestic market place and the continued penetration of foreign markets.

EARNINGS:  Consolidated net loss in the fiscal 1996 third quarter was
$112,000, or $0.06 per share on a primary basis, compared to a net loss of
$941,000, or $0.17 per share, reported in the previous year's third quarter.
A net loss of $244,000, or $0.18 per share on a primary basis, was reported for
the first nine months of 1996 compared to a net loss of $1,778,000, or $0.38 
per share, incurred for the same period last year.

COSTS AND EXPENSES:  Gross margin as a percent of sales was 23.0% compared to
23.3% reported in the fiscal 1995 third quarter.  This decrease was due to an
increase in product development costs primarily attributable to work on the 
three-year supply contract announced April 3, with Royal Dutch Shell for the
Asian region and mix of sales.  Sales related to this contract are estimated 
at $50 to $70 million over a three year period.  Gross margin for the nine
month periods ended August 31, 1996 and 1995 were 23.7% and 23.1%, 
respectively.  This increase is attributable to the favorable first quarter 
results primarily due to higher sales volumes, actions taken to improve the 
Company's cost structure and a favorable product sales mix, partially offset 
by the cost described above.

Selling, general, and administrative expenses increased as a percent of sales
0.2% and 0.9% over comparable 1995 levels for the three month and nine month
periods, respectively.  These increases are generally attributable to legal
fees to defend the Company against certain pending cases, increased employee
cost, and a customer satisfaction program related to previously sold 
dispensers.

Net interest expense for the fiscal 1996 third quarter was $726,000 versus
$695,000 reported in the comparable period in 1995.  This increase was
attributable to eight days of interest on the recently issued 11.5% Senior
Subordinated Notes offset by the interest income from the bond proceeds held
in escrow.  Net interest expenses of $1,949,000 for the first nine months
decreased from net interest expense of $2,155,000 reported in the same period
last year.  This decrease is due to reduced average borrowings throughout most
of the first nine month period offset by an increase in interest income.

Depreciation and amortization decreased $176,000 and $366,000, respectively,
for the three and nine month periods ended August 31, 1996 from the same
periods one year ago.  These decreases were due to assets becoming fully
depreciated in previous periods and utilization of operating leases to
finance the current capital needs.

Foreign currency loss for the three months ended August 31, 1996 is decreased
considerably from the same period one year ago.  In the prior year devaluation
of the major European currencies caused an adverse effect on our European 
subsidiaries.  The favorable impact in the nine period ended August 31, 1996
is due to the overall strengthening of those same European currencies during
the current year.

Other expenses,net as a percent of sales or in dollars did not significantly
change compared to the three and nine month periods ended August 31, 1995.

OTHER:  Cash used in operations for the nine-month period ended August 31, 
1996 was $1,124,000 versus $15,000 in the prior year's third quarter.
The decrease relative to the prior year reflects the financial effect
of deferred charges related to the acquisition of Sofitam International.
These items are reflected under the caption "Other assets and deferred charges"
in the balance sheet.

Funds used in investing and other activities were $97,281,000 in 1996,
representing $1,887,000 in capital expenditures less $1,007,000 in proceeds 
from the sale of property and equipment.  In addition, $96,401,000 net proceeds
from the issuance of 11.5% Senior Subordinated Notes was held in escrow to
fund the purchase of the fuel pump business of Sofitam International.  Cash 
used in investing and other activities in the 1995 third quarter was 
$4,098,000 reflecting capital expenditures of $4,204,000 offset by proceeds 
from the sale of equipment of $106,000.

Cash generated from financing activities of $102,426,000 in 1996 and 
$1,775,000 in 1995 principally represented increases in debt less preferred 
stock dividend payments.  The 1996 increase in debt represents an increase 
due to the placement of $100,000,000 11.5% Senior Subordinated Notes
maturing in the year 2006 and deferred charges for the acquisition.

DIVIDENDS:  No cash dividends on common stock were declared during the period.

OTHER DEVELOPMENTS:  The recent acquisition of the petroleum dispenser business
of Sofitam S.A., a Paris, France based corporation, launches us to a leadership
position in the petroleum dispensing industry with approximately $400 million
in combined product and service support revenues from around the world.

The $108 million purchase transaction was financed by the private placement
of $100 million principal amount of Tokheim Corporation 11.5% Senior 
Subordinated Notes due 2006, and the utilization of a portion of an $80
million bank credit facility.

                      EXHIBIT (11) - EARNINGS PER SHARE
                 FOR THE THREE MONTH AND NINE MONTH PERIODS 
                  ENDED AUGUST 31, 1996 and AUGUST 31, 1995


Primary earnings per share are based on the weighted average number of shares 
outstanding during each year and the assumed exercise of dilutive employees' 
stock options less the number of treasury shares assumed to be purchased from 
the proceeds using the average market price of the Company's common stock. 

The following table presents information necessary to calculate earnings per
share for the three month and nine month periods ended August 31, 1996 and 
August 31, 1995:

For financial reporting purposes, the loss per share, assuming full dilution,
is considered to be the same as primary since the effect of the common stock
equivalents would be antidilutive.
