4. In February 1996, the Registrant entered into a line of credit agreement with
Silicon Valley Bank, which line of credit allows the Registrant to borrow the
lesser of $1,000,000 or an amount determined by a formula applied to accounts
receivable. Unused borrowing capacity was $588,700 at June 30, 1996. Amounts
borrowed bear interest at prime rate plus 2 -1/2% per annum and are secured by
the Registrant's assets along with The Gregory Company's assets. This line of

                     MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
                  FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
                                   (Unaudited)

Results of Operations

Net sales for the quarter ended June 30, 1996 increased by 2.3% from $2,712,500
from 1995 to $2,775,500 in 1996. Net sale for the six months ended June 30, 1996
increased by 5.4% from $4,801,800 in 1995 to $5,059,900 in 1996. These increases
were primarily due to increased IceStor(TM) and pool panel product sales
partially offset by decreased unit sales of the Company's automated swimming
pool controls.

Cost of goods sold decreased from $1,843,400 (68.0% of net sales) in the quarter
ended June 30, 1995 to $1,583,900 (57.1% of net sales) in the corresponding
quarter in 1996, and decreased from $3,227,600 (67.2% of net sales) for the six
month period ended June 30, 1995 to $2,907,400 (57.5% of net sales) for the
corresponding period in 1996. These decreases in cost of goods sold were due
primarily to the spreading of reduced overhead costs over slightly higher net
sales.

Marketing and selling expenses decreased from $602,400 (22.2% of net sales) in
the quarter ended June 30 1995 to $459,000 (16.5% of net sales) in the same
quarter of 1996 and a decrease from $1,168,500 (24.3% of net sales) in the six
month period ended June 30, 1995 to $928,100 ( 18.3% of net sales) for the
corresponding period in 1996. These increases were due mainly to the decrease of
in-house sales support personnel.

General and administrative expenses decreased from $403,900 (14.9% of net sales)
in the quarter ended June 30, 1995 to $370,700 (13.4% of net sales) in the same
quarter in 1996 and from $764,900 (15.9% of net sales) in the six month period
ended June 30, 1995 to $682,700 (13.5% of net sales) for the corresponding
period in 1996. These decrease were due mainly to a reduction of cost associated
with decreases in personnel throughout the company.

Research and development expensed decreased from $150,500 (5.6% of net sales)
for the quarter ended June 30 1995 to $5,400 (0.2% of net sales) for the quarter
ended June 30, 1996 and it decreased from $278,200 (5.8% of net sales) in the
six month period ended June 30, 1995 to $58,000 (1.1% of net sales) for the
corresponding period in 1996. These decreases were primarily a result of
decrease in personnel in the research and development area.

Net interest expense increased from $17,800 (0.7% of net sales) in the quarter
ended June 30, 1995 to $40,700 (1.5% of net sales) for the quarter ended June
30, 1996 and increased from $33,600 (0.7% of net sales) in the six month period
ended June 30, 1995 to $81,100 (1.6% of net sales) for the corresponding period
in 1996. These increases were mainly due to higher average daily borrowing in
1996 along with higher interest rates in 1996.

Other income (net) included $14,100 in refunds of prior year's insurance
premiums in the second quarter and $30,000 during the first six months of 1996
compared with $24,400 in the second quarter and the first six months of 1995.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

At June 30, 1996, the Registrant's inventories had increased to $1,031,600 from
$717,200 at December 31,1995. This increase was due mainly to acquisition of
inventories required to support the increased sales levels experienced during
the first half of 1996.

Part I - FINANCIAL INFORMATION (continued)

At June 30, 1996, the Registrant's accounts payable and other accrued expenses
had increased to $1,531,600 from $949,100 at December 31, 1995. This increase is
primarily due to decreased cash flow during the first half of 1996 as a result
of the Registrant's "Early Buy" program from Above Ground Pool systems and
increased sales levels experienced during the quarter.

At June 30, 1996, the Registrant's accounts receivable had increased to
$1,940,000 from $1,149,600 at December 31, 1995 due mainly to the effect of the
Company's "Early Buy" program for Above Ground Pool panel sales which was
introduced in 1996 along with increased sales levels experienced during the
first half of 1996.

At June 30, 1996, the Registrant's accrued compensation and benefits had
increased to $256,000 from $188,900 at December 31, 1995, due mainly to the fact
that the December 1995 level was abnormally low due to heavy use of vacation
while the Company was closed in the latter half of December.

At June 30, 1996, the Registrant's current ratio was 1.45 to 1 compared with
1.11 to 1 at December 31, 1995. The Registrant had working capital of $1,110,300
at June 30, 1996 compared with $222,400 at December 31, 1995. Total assets
exceeded total liabilities by $1,113,600 at June 30, 1996 compared with $614,700
at December 31, 1995.

The Registrant believes that its cash flow from operations along with its
available line of credit will be sufficient to support operations during the
next twelve months.

Significant Accounting Policies - Income Taxes

Effective as of the beginning of 1993, the Company adopted Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards No. 109, "Accounting for Income Taxes" (SFAS
109), on a prospective basis. The new standard requires an asset and liability
approach for financial accounting and reporting for income taxes. Under this
approach, deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the tax
consequences of temporary differences between the financial reporting and tax
basis of assets and liabilities. See Note 5 of Notes to Interim Consolidated
Financial Statements.

For periods prior to 1993, the Company followed the deferred method prescribed
by Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 11.
