Item 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
For Six Months Ended June 30, 1996
Sales and Earnings
Sales for the quarter ended June 30, 1996 were $7,350,676 compared to
$5,932,229 for the same period a year ago. This increase of $1,418,447 is
primarily attributable to an increase in sales of the Company's multifunction
bus lighting module, which is the result of increased production of transit
buses. The Company also posted higher domestic sales of its variable message
signs during the second quarter of 1996 compared to the same period a year ago.
During the second quarter of 1996, the Company realized a net profit of
$349,265 on sales of $7,350,676. For the same period of the prior year, the
Company reported net profit of $183,739 on sales of $5,932,229. This increase
in profit is due to higher sales volume being achieved. Profit per share for
the second quarter was $.12 and $.06 for 1996 and 1995, respectively. Profit
per share was computed on the adjusted weighted average number of shares
outstanding during the quarter for 1996 and 1995, which were 3,027,000 and
2,927,000, respectively.
Inventories
Inventory valuation is based upon the lower of cost or market. At June
30, 1996, consolidated inventories were $5,898,277 compared to $5,078,522 a
year ago. The increase of $819,755 results from higher raw material and
finished goods levels to accommodate increased sales levels.
Interest
Interest expense amounted to approximately $204,000 and $239,000 for the
second quarter of 1996 and 1995 respectively. This decrease of $35,000 was the
result of slightly lower interest rates in 1996.
Financial Conditions
Current financial resources coupled with anticipated funds from operations
are expected to meet funding requirements for the remainder of the year, based
upon present needs.

PART II - OTHER INFORMATION
Item 1. LEGAL PROCEEDING
The Company is the plaintiff in a patent infringement lawsuit. During
November of 1993, an advisory jury recommended a decision in favor of the
Company. In April of 1995, the judge concurred with the advisory jury and
ordered that the defendant be enjoined from any further manufacture, use, or
sale of the accused patented device. It was also ordered that the defendant
pay approximately $3 million in damages. During 1994, the defendant appealed
the case based on the lower courts interpretation of the law. On May 2, 1995,
the Company was notified that the U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals changed the
District Courts ruling that the defendant literally infringed the patent
instead of infringement by equivalents. Further the court of appeals remanded
the case back to the Federal District Court for further determination of
damages. A final outcome is expected to be reached in 1996. Because this
decision can be further appealed by the defendant, the ultimate award to the
Company will be recorded in the financial statements when realized.
Additionally, any award received by the Company will be net of certain
contingent legal fees related to the lawsuit.
