conjunction with footnotes contained in the Company's annual report on Form 10-K
for the year ended January 31, 1995.

Note 3 - ACQUISITION
On August 1, 1994, the Company acquired Grass Instrument Co., a privately
held coroprationcorporation ("Grass"), and Cannon Manufacturing Company, a privately held
corporation ("Cannon") affiliated with Grass by common ownership. Following a
merger, the combined businesses of Grass and Cannon continue as a wholly-owned
subsidiary of the Company under the name "Grass Instrument Co."
On an unaudited proforma basis, assuming Grass and Cannon had been acquired
on February 1, 1993,1994, the Company's consolidated net sales would have been
$8,967,846$11,510,508 for the three months ended AprilJuly 30, 1994 and $20,478,354 for the six
months ended July 30, 1994. The proforma effect on net income and earnings per

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION
AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Results of Operations:
- ---------------------
Net sales in the current quarter and six months increased 19% and 39%,
respectively, compared to prior year totals. Excluding sales of the new
business acquired (see Notenote 3 of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements),
net sales for the firstsecond quarter of the current fiscal year increaseddecreased
approximately 30%6% as compared to a relatively weak
firstthe second quarter a year ago. The increase wasFor the six
months of the current fiscal year, comparable net sales were approximately 9%
higher than for the same period of the prior year. Changes in sales have been
spread between recorders/printers and bar code printer products in all
geographic market sectors.
Including sales
of the new business, net sales were 67% higher than the prior quarter's total.
Sales of the Company's newest products, including the four-color label printer
SUNDANCE, are expected to favorably impact sales later in the year.
GrossConsolidated gross profit as a percentage of sales was 39% in43% for the second
quarter and 41% for the six months of the current quarter as
compared to 44% in the first quarter ofyear. For the prior year.year, the
percentages were 46% and 45%, respectively. The decline isdeclines were due in
large part to
the inclusion of sales of the new business which historically has customarily
experienced
gross profit margins of approximately 30%.substantially lower margins. Excluding sales of the new business, gross profit
declined from 44% to 41% as a resultwas 43% in the current second quarter and 43% for the current six months. Gross
profit margins of the new business have been improved through the introduction
of certain manufacturing efficiencies and selected modest price increases.
Overall, margins in the current year have been affected by product sales mix and
increased sales of certain products to dealers and independent sales
representatives who receive a resale discount.
Selling, general and administrative expenses in the current year quarter
without the new business
acquired rose by approximately 10% from12% in both the second quarter and six months of
the current fiscal year as compared to amounts for the same periods in the prior
year
first quarter. While certain expenses increased or decreased, therefiscal year. There were no individually significant expenses affecting the
totals. The most substantial comparative changechanges in the current year resulted from
increased advertising and from additional sales personnel and their related
expenses in the current period.expenses.
Research and development costs in the current second quarter and six months
did not vary significantly from thecomparable previous first quarter.year totals. The level of
such costs remains high, however, reflecting the Company's commitment to the
development of new and improved products.
Interest and dividend income decreased noticeably in the current firstsecond
quarter and six months compared to the prior period totalyear totals because of a reduction in
invested funds following the acquisition for cash of the business referred to
above.
