                          INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT


To the Stockholder
Defense Technology Corporation of America


We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of Defense Technology
Corporation of America (an S corporation) as of December 31, 1995 and 1994, and
the related statements of income and retained earnings and cash flows for the
years then ended. These financial statements are the responsibility of the
Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these
financial statements based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing

standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to
obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of
material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence
supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit
also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant
estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial
statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis
for our opinion.

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in
all material respects, the financial position of Defense Technology Corporation
of America as of December 31, 1995 and 1994, and the results of its operations
and its cash flows for the years then ended in conformity with generally
accepted accounting principles.

As discussed in Note 16 to the financial statements, on August 23, 1996 the
Company entered into a definitive purchase agreement to sell a substantial
portion of its assets in consideration for cash, securities, and assumption of
liabilities. The sale will represent a significant portion of the Company's
total assets and operations.

During the years ended December 31, 1995 and 1994, the Company had the
following noncash transactions:

113 shares of treasury stock were purchased in exchange for an account
receivable from the stockholder in the amount of $43,654 in 1994.

Accounts receivable in the amounts of $50,630 and $93,924 were converted into
notes receivable in 1995 and 1994, respectively.

In 1995, a vehicle and other assets owned by the Company were transferred to
the stockholder and recorded as a dividend in the amount of $30,992. Dividends
in the amount of $139,990 represent a prior year receivable from the
stockholder that was declared a dividend in 1994.

The Company incurred expense of $38,950 in 1994 for a manufacturing mold which
became obsolete in 1995 before it was paid for, and, therefore, the mold and
the accrued expense were written off.

Accrued interest payable of $59,783 at December 31, 1995 was added to the face
value of a note payable as a result of the modification of its terms.

                         NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                            DECEMBER 31, 1995 & 1994


NOTE 1 - SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The operations of Defense Technology Corporation of America (DTCOA) consist of
the manufacturing and sales of nonlethal crowd control devices. The Company
grants credit to its customers located throughout the United States and
selected customers abroad. Credit policies with some international customers
include letter of credit arrangements and prepayments, and all transactions are
in United States dollars. Outlined below are the Company's significant
accounting policies.

Estimates - The preparation of financial statements in conformity with
generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates
and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and
disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial
statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the
reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Inventories - Inventories are stated at the lower of average cost (first-in,
first-out) or market based upon a physical count. Cost of work in process
inventories include related materials, labor, and applied overhead costs.


Amortization of Intangibles - Intangible assets are being amortized over their
useful lives using the straight-line method.

Property, Plant, and Equipment - The cost of property, plant, and equipment is
being depreciated over the estimated useful lives of the related assets.
Depreciation is computed on the straight-line method for financial reporting
purposes and on the accelerated and straight-line methods for income tax
purposes.

Cash and Cash Equivalents - For purposes of the statement of cash flows, the
Company considers all highly liquid debt instruments with a maturity of three
months or less to be cash equivalents.

Advertising Costs - Advertising costs are expensed as incurred. Total amounts
charged to expense for the years ended December 31, 1995 and 1994 were $267,504
and $173,670, respectively.

(A)      The Company had a revolving line of credit with Key Bank of Wyoming
         which provided a $4,000,000 open line of credit.


         In March 1996, the Company modified the terms of the line of credit
         with Key Bank. The modified agreement bifurcated the line of credit
         into two obligations; a $3,000,000 line of credit and $1,000,000 term
         loan. The $3,000,000 open line of credit is at 1.5% over the Key Bank
         of Wyoming prime rate with interest payable monthly and is secured by
         substantially all of the Company's assets, a second mortgage on real
         property of the stockholder, and the personal guarantees of the
         stockholder and a corporate officer. The line of credit is due
         September 1996. The agreement contains various restrictive covenants.
         The Company is not in compliance with several of those covenants.

         The term loan is at 1.5% over the Key Bank of Wyoming prime rate and
         is secured by real property of the stockholder and personal guarantees
         of the stockholder and a corporate officer. Interest is payable
         monthly and the loan is due September 1996. The term loan includes an
         option to extend the due date until March 1997 if the real property
         collateral has not been sold.

(B)      The Company had a revolving line of credit with Rawlins National Bank
         which provided a $3,000,000 open line of credit at 2% over the Norwest
         Bank of Denver prime rate. Borrowings under this line of credit were
         secured by inventory, equipment, accounts, contract rights, general
         intangibles, fixtures, real property, and personal guarantee of the
         stockholder. During 1995, the Company paid off the line by refinancing
         with Key Bank of Wyoming.

(C)      On January 4, 1996, the Company modified the terms of its note with
         Finnoff & Associates based on the settlement of a legal suit filed by
         the creditor. The note was originally due on March 4, 1994. Finnoff &
         Associates has agreed to accept $300,000 due in monthly installments
         of $10,000, including 8% interest, through October 1998.

NOTE 7 - OBLIGATION UNDER CAPITAL LEASE

The Company leases equipment under a noncancellable agreement which requires a
monthly payment of $1,352. The lease is a capital lease with the cost of the
assets of $42,400 reflected in property, plant, and equipment. The assets are
amortized over their estimated useful lives and that expense is included in
depreciation expense.

The following is a schedule by years of future minimum lease payments under the
lease together with the present value of the net minimum lease payments as of
December 31, 1995:

            Year Ending December 31:

as current and noncurrent obligations under capital leases of $5,262 and $0 for
1995 and $14,483 and $5,262 for 1994, respectively.


NOTE 8 - STOCKHOLDER'S EQUITY

The declaration of dividends is restricted to the total stockholder's equity
less the cost of the treasury shares held.


NOTE 9 - RELATED PARTIES

The Company has, at various times, purchased inventory, supplies, and fixed
assets; rented equipment; and made payments on behalf of Def-Tec of Ohio. At
one time, both of these companies were wholly owned subsidiaries of a common
parent. Def-Tec of Ohio ceased operations in November of 1994.

Following is a summary of transactions:

NOTE 10 - RENTALS UNDER OPERATING LEASES

The Company has four buildings, three automobiles, and various equipment leased
under the operating lease method with the leases expiring in various years
through 2000. The following is a schedule by years of minimum future rentals on
the noncancellable operating leases as of December 31, 1995:

             1996                                             147,567
             1997                                             111,589

                                                              -------

             Total Minimum Future Rentals                     439,416
                                                              =======

Rent expense for the years ended December 31, 1995 and 1994 was $178,608 and
$161,881, respectively.

Three of the building leases provide for purchase options. The purchase options
are at prices representing the expected fair value of the property at the
expiration of the lease term or the date the purchase option expires, if
earlier. Two of these buildings were vacated subsequent to December 31, 1995.

The fourth building lease provides for a 5% increase each year in the minimum
rental payments.


NOTE 11 - PENSION PLAN

During the year ended December 31, 1995, the Company established a cash or
deferral plan under Internal Revenue Code Section 401(k) that covers all

employees. The Company has the option of making contributions to the plan as
well as matching employee contributions. Contributions to the plan for the year
ended December 31, 1995 were $2,117.


NOTE 12 - INCOME TAX MATTERS

The Company and its stockholder have elected to have the federal income tax on
the corporate earnings paid directly by its stockholder as provided by
Subchapter S of the Internal Revenue Code. As a result, no income tax provision
has been made on the statements of income or the balance sheets, as this is a
personal obligation of the stockholder. The accumulated losses at December 31,
1995 for the stockholder were $1,080,166.


NOTE 13 - FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

The Company's financial instruments consist of notes receivable and notes
payable. The fair value of the notes receivable approximates carrying amounts
as does the fair value of notes payable based on the borrowing rates currently
available to the Company.


NOTE 14 - SIGNIFICANT CONCENTRATIONS OF CREDIT RISK

Financial instruments that are exposed to concentrations of credit risk consist
primarily of cash, cash equivalents, trade accounts receivable, and notes
receivable. The Company places its cash and temporary cash investments with
financial institutions. Included in cash at December 31, 1994 was $10,400 which
was invested in uninsured cash reserve funds whose underlying assets are short
term investments in United States government securities. At December 31, 1995,
the Company had cash deposits at a foreign financial institution in the amount
of $109,431. This deposit is not covered by FDIC insurance but is afforded
protection under the New York banking laws.

The Company routinely assesses the financial strength of their customers and,
as a consequence, believe that their trade accounts receivable credit risk
exposure is limited.

                            DECEMBER 31, 1995 & 1994

NOTE 14 - SIGNIFICANT CONCENTRATIONS OF CREDIT RISK (CONTINUED)

For the year ended December 31, 1995, approximately 13% of the Company's sales
were derived from sales to one major customer. The balance reflected in
accounts receivable at December 31, 1995 includes $790,832, or 37%, of accounts
receivable from that same major customer.


In addition, international sales were approximately 25% and 21% of the total
sales for the years ended December 31, 1995 and 1994, respectively. At December
31, 1995, accounts receivable included $419,012, or 20%, of accounts receivable
due from foreign entities.


NOTE 15 - CONTINGENCIES

The Company provides health insurance to its employees through a self-insured
plan. Under the plan, the Company has acquired stop-loss insurance to limit its
exposure to $25,000 per year for each employee. In addition, there is a maximum
amount the Company must pay for claims each month which is based upon an
experience factor and the number of employees covered by the plan. Claims which
exceed the maximum monthly payment are paid by the plan administrator. These
excess amounts, if any, accumulate and in future months when actual claims are
less than the maximum amount, cause the Company to have to pay an amount up to
the maximum monthly amount. There were no excess amounts at December 31, 1995.

The Company is involved in legal actions arising in the ordinary course of
business. Management believes the Company has adequate legal defenses or
insurance coverage with respect to these actions and does not believe they will
materially affect the Company's financial position and results of operations.


NOTE 16 - GOING CONCERN

These statements are presented on the basis that the Company is a going
concern. Going concern contemplates the realization of assets and the
satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business over a reasonable
length of time. The accompanying financial statements show a loss from
operations of $587,262 for the year ended December 31, 1995 and a total overall
loss of $1,629,362. As of December 31, 1995, current liabilities exceed current
assets by $812,226. Those factors, as well as uncertainties regarding the
Company's ability to retain or replace existing financing, create an
uncertainty about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. The
financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary if
the Company is unable to continue as a going concern.

On August 23, 1996, management entered into a definitive purchase agreement
with Armor Holdings, Inc. for the sale of a substantial portion of its assets
in consideration for cash, securities, and the assumption of liabilities. The
transaction is expected to close on or prior to September 30, 1996. Management
believes the completion of this transaction will provide the opportunity for
the Company to continue as a going concern. Its activities then will be as a
sales company including international sales of products manufactured by Armor
Holdings, Inc. and its subsidiaries.


NOTE 17 - RECLASSIFICATIONS

The financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 1994 reflect
reclassifications between accounts with no resulting effect on net income or
retained earnings.

ARMOR HOLDINGS, INC.

NOTES TO UNAUDITED PRO FORMA FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(1)      Acquisition of NIK Assets

         Effective July 1, 1996, the Company acquired certain assets
         of the NIK Public Safety Product Line from Ivers-Lee
         Corporation (the "NIK Assets"). The purchase price of the
         acquisition was $2,400,000 in stock plus $255,000 in costs
         related to the purchase. The Company acquired inventory,
         receivables and certain intangibles. The total purchase price
         was allocated to the NIK Assets based on relative fair market
         values. Patents, trademarks, and other intangibles will be
         amortized over their respective useful lives which range from
         5-25 years. The Company advanced the seller $1,200,000 in
         cash at the closing which will be reimbursed to the Company
         if the Company is able to sell the stock, on behalf of the
         sellers of the NIK Assets, in the open market. The company is
         not reflecting the stock as outstanding until it is sold in
         the open market.

(2)      Acquisition of DTCoA Assets

         On September 30, 1996, the Company acquired substantially all
         of the assets of Defense Technology Corporation of America, a
         Wyoming corporation (the "DTCoA Assets"). The purchase
         consideration was $838,025 in cash, approximately 630,000
         shares of common stock, and the assumption of approximately
         $2,250,000 in liabilities, of which $550,000 was paid at
         closing. The purchase price was allocated based on relative
         fair market values. Patents, trademarks, and other
         intangibles will be amortized over their respective useful
         lives which range from 5-25 years. As part of the
         acquisition, the Company agreed to pay off the seller's main
         credit facility of $3,000,000 for a total price of $2,650,000
         in cash and stock.

         In addition to the seller accepting an international
         distributorship agreement with the Company (the
         "International Distributorship Agreement"), the Company's
         agreement with the seller provides that the Company will pay
         the seller an additional $1,000,000 in stock if the Company
         attains certain international sales goals over the next three
         years.

(3)      Acquisition of DTCoA Assets

         Income Statement information was prepared using DTCoA's
         audited financial statements as of December 31, 1995 with the
         following adjustments:


         -        Sales were reduced for the new pricing which has been reduced
                  pursuant to the International Distribution Agreement.

         -        Cost of sales were reduced in order to reclassify product
                  liability insurance to a selling expense.

         -        Selling, general, and administrative expenses were
                  reduced to eliminate the international office
                  located in Miami, Florida and certain expenses
                  incurred relating to the previous owner of DTCoA,
                  including an airplane. In addition, these expenses
                  were increased to reflect new guaranteed commission
                  and life insurance premium costs incurred by the
                  Company in connection with the International
                  Distribution Agreement.

         -        Interest expense was reduced to reflect only the
                  interest relating to debt that was not paid off at
                  the closing of the acquisition.

         -        Amortization of intangibles reflect the Company's
                  policy of amortizing all patents, trademarks and
                  other intangibles over a life of 5-25 years.

                                    -26-





(4)      Issuance of Convertible Debt

         On April 30, 1996, the Company issued 5% Convertible
         Subordinated Notes due April 30, 2001 (the "Notes") whereby
         the Company received cash of $11,500,000. The cash was
         reduced by paying down the Company's credit facility by
         approximately $1,700,000, and paying debt-related costs of
         $850,000. The Notes have an interest rate of 5% which equates
         to an interest cost of $575,000 annually, or $143,750
         quarterly. In addition, deferred debt issue costs are being
         amortized over the term of the Notes, which is five years.
         The pro formas also reflect the reduction of historical
         interest expense of $246,091 and $141,622 for the year ended
         December 31, 1995 and for the six months ended June 30, 1996,
         respectively, relating to debt paid off from the proceeds of
         the issuance of the convertible debt.

(5)      Income Taxes

         The pro forma tax expense reflects the historical effective
         tax rates incurred by the Company for each respective period.
         In addition, no significant permanent differences are
         associated with either acquisition, thus the federal
         statutory rate of 39% has been applied in the pro forma.


(6)      Earnings Per Share Calculation

         No earnings per share calculations for each of the
         acquisitions were performed because (1) there is no equity
         interest in the NIK acquisition until the stock is sold into
         the market and (2) calculating earnings per share on the
         DTCoA acquisition on a stand alone basis is misleading and
         distorts the consolidated earnings per share.
