                          CENTENNIAL TECHNOLOGIES, INC.
              NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1.  BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND CHANGE IN FISCAL YEAR

BASIS OF PRESENTATION

    The consolidated financial statements of Centennial Technologies, Inc. (the
"Company") include the accounts of the Company and all wholly owned
subsidiaries. Investments in companies in which the company's ownership
interests range from 20 to 50 percent and in which the company exercises
significant influence over operating and financial policies are accounted for
using the equity method. Other investments are accounted for using the cost
method. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been
eliminated. Certain reclassifications have been made to prior reported financial
statements to conform to the fiscal 2000 presentation.

    The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been
prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim
financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Rule 10-01 of
Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all financial information and
disclosures required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete
financial statements. In the opinion of management, these financial statements
include all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring accruals) necessary
for a fair presentation of the results of operations for the interim periods
reported and of the financial condition of the Company as of the date of the
interim balance sheet. The results of operations for interim periods are not
necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year.

    These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company's
consolidated financial statements and related notes included in the Company's
Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 31, 1999 along with
any other filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission since March 31,
1999.

 FISCAL YEAR

    The Company's fiscal year begins on April 1. Each fiscal quarter ends on the
Saturday of the thirteenth week following the beginning of the quarter, except
for the fourth quarter, which ends on March 31.

CASH EQUIVALENTS AND SHORT-TERM INVESTMENTS

     Cash equivalents include highly liquid temporary cash investments having
maturities of three months or less at date of acquisition. Short-term
investments include commercial paper having a maturity longer than three months
but less than one year at date of acquisition.

USE OF 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.

2.  CONCENTRATION OF CREDIT RISK

     Financial instruments, which potentially subject the Company to
concentration of credit risk, consist principally of cash and cash equivalents,
short-term investments and trade receivables. At September 25, 1999,
substantially all of the Company's cash, cash equivalents and short-term
investments were held by one financial institution. The Company primarily sells
and grants credit to domestic and foreign original equipment manufacturers and
distributors. The Company extends credit based on an evaluation of the
customer's financial condition and generally does not require collateral. The
Company monitors its exposure for credit losses and maintains allowances for
anticipated losses. At September 25, 1999 and March 31, 1999, the allowance for
doubtful accounts was $520,000 and $795,000, respectively.


                                       6


    For the three and six months ended September 25, 1999, no individual
customer represented 10% of the Company's sales. For the three and six months
ended September 26, 1998, one customer represented 19% and 26%, respectively of
the Company's sales. For the three and six months ended September 25, 1999,
sales to this customer represented 4% of the Company's sales. During fiscal
1999, this customer engaged several contract manufacturers to complete the final
assembly of a majority of its products for which the Company has historically
supplied PC cards. The Company's sales to these contract manufacturers for the
three and six months ended September 25, 1999 represented 15% and 14%,
respectively of the Company's sales. For the three and six months ended
September 26, 1998 sales to these contract manufacturers represented 7% and 5%,
respectively of the Company's sales. One of these contract manufacturers
recently announced a merger with one of the Company's competitors, which could
result in a decrease of sales to this contract manufacturer. If these customers
were to reduce significantly the amount of business they conduct with the
Company, it could have a material adverse effect on the Company's business,
financial condition and results of operations.

    Approximately 19% and 12% of the Company's sales for the three months ended
September 25, 1999 and September 26, 1998, respectively, were outside the United
States. For the six months ended September 25, 1999 and September 26, 1998,
sales outside the United States were approximately 19% and 10%, respectively, of
the Company's sales. Sales outside the United States are primarily in several
Western European countries. No one country comprised more than 10% of the
Company's sales in any of the three and six month periods ended September 25,
1999 or September 26, 1998.

3.  NET INCOME PER SHARE

     The Company computes net income per share in accordance with Statement
of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") 128, "Earnings Per Share." Basic
net income per share excludes any dilutive effect of options, warrants and
convertible securities. Diluted net income per share includes all potentially
dilutive securities.

     On July 20, 1999, the Company's shareholders approved a one-for-eight
reverse split of the common stock for shareholders of record as of the close of
business on July 22, 1999. In this report, all per share amounts and numbers of
shares have been restated to reflect a one-for-eight reverse stock split of the
Company's common stock, which was effective as of the opening of the
over-the-counter Bulletin Board on July 23, 1999.

     The following table sets forth the computation of net income per share (in
thousands, except per share data). All shares issuable in connection with the
settlement of the Consolidated Litigation described in Note 7 are included in
the weighted average shares outstanding calculation as of July 20, 1998, the
date on which the Company's settlement of the Consolidated Litigation became
effective.

                                                              =========         ========


    The Company maintains levels of inventories that it believes are necessary
based upon assumptions concerning its growth, mix of sales and availability and
pricing of raw materials. Changes in those underlying assumptions could affect
management's estimates of inventory valuation.

    In fiscal 1998, the Company reserved fully $1.8 million of costs related to
inventory specifically purchased and manufactured pursuant to a customer
purchase order (the "Custom Inventory"), as to which the customer later
attempted to cancel the purchase order. The Company disputed the customer's
claim that the purchase order cancellation was effective, and sought legal
remedies related thereto. During fiscal 1999, the Company agreed to settle its
claims against the customer, in return for a $1.6 million cash payment, which
was included in other income in the second quarter of fiscal 1999, and the right
to retain and sell the Custom Inventory at issue. The Company sold portions of
the Custom Inventory during the six months ended September 26, 1998 and
September 25, 1999 for approximately $0.5 million and $0.8 million,
respectively, which have been included in net sales.

5.  INVESTMENT IN CENTURY ELECTRONICS MANUFACTURING, INC.

    Since October 1996, the Company has held an equity interest in Century
Electronics Manufacturing, Inc. ("Century"), a contract manufacturer.

    On February 4, 1998, Century redeemed a portion of the Company's debt and
equity holdings in Century in exchange for $9.7 million in cash, $4.0 million of
Century Series B Convertible Preferred Stock and the forgiveness of certain
interest. The Series B Convertible Preferred Stock is equivalent upon conversion
to approximately 5%, non-diluted, of Century's outstanding shares, is
non-voting, has no dividend, and has a liquidation preference of $4.0 million
senior to the common shareholders and subordinate to the holders of Century
Series A Convertible Preferred Stock. The Company recorded a loss on investment
activities of $5.1 million in the third quarter of fiscal 1998 to reflect the
difference between the fair value of the consideration received from Century and
the carrying value of the Company's investment in Century.

    During fiscal 1999, the Company reduced the carrying value of its investment
in Century by $733,000 to $1.7 million, reflecting management's assessment of
the deterioration in value of contract manufacturing businesses in general and a
permanent decline in the value of its investment. In August 1999, Century filed
a registration statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission in
preparation for a planned initial public offering of Century's common stock at
an estimated price between $8.00 and $10.00 per share. The preferred shares that
Centennial owns are convertible into 667,667 shares of Century's common stock.
Centennial's shares of Century stock are subject to certain restrictions on
sales and are not readily saleable for a period of 180 days following the
consummation of Century's initial public offering. There can be no assurance
that the initial public offering of Century common stock will occur at the
estimated price range or at all.

6.  DEBT

    On November 24, 1998, the Company entered into a credit agreement with Fleet
National Bank for a revolving credit facility, equipment term loan facility and
foreign exchange facility of $3.5 million, $1.5 million and $2.0 million,
respectively. This arrangement contains certain limitations and covenants,
including a covenant regarding the maintenance of the Company's liquidity, as
defined. Allowable borrowings are based on accounts receivable and the cost of
equipment, and are secured by substantially all of the Company's assets. At
September 25, 1999 and March 31, 1999, the Company had no outstanding borrowings
under these credit facilities.

LEASES

    In April, 1999, the Company entered into a five year capital lease for a new
piece of manufacturing equipment. Monthly payments under this lease are $6,683.
In October 1999, the Company entered into another five-year capital lease for
additional manufacturing equipment. Monthly payments under this lease of $16,567
will commence in November 1999.

7.  CONTINGENCIES

CLASS ACTION LITIGATION

    Since the Company's announcement on February 11, 1997 that it was
undertaking an inquiry into the accuracy of its prior reported financial
results, and that preliminary information had raised questions as to whether
reported results contained material misstatements, approximately 40 purported
class action lawsuits were filed in or transferred to the United States District
Court for the District of Massachusetts. These complaints asserted claims
against the Company and the Company's Board of Directors, officers and former
independent accounts, among others, under Section 10(b) and 20(a) of the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the "1934 Act") and Rule 10b-5 promulgated
thereunder, and related state law claims of fraud, deceit and negligent
misrepresentation. These class action lawsuits were purportedly brought by and
on behalf of purchasers of the Company's Common Stock (i) between the Company's
initial public offering on April 12, 1994 and on February 10, 1997 or (ii) on
February 25, 1997.

    On February 9, 1998, these class action lawsuits were consolidated (the
"Consolidated Litigation"), and the Company and lead counsel representing the
plaintiffs in the Consolidated Litigation filed a Stipulation of Settlement (the
"Settlement Agreement"), whereby the Company and certain of its officers and
directors would be released from liability arising from the allegations included
in the Consolidated Litigation. In return, the Company agreed to pay the
plaintiffs in the Consolidated Litigation $1.475 million in cash and to issue to
these plaintiffs 37% of the Company's Common Stock. The Company also agreed to
adopt certain corporate governance policies and procedures. The Settlement
Agreement became effective on July 20, 1998. The Company has issued 854,300
shares of common stock pursuant to the Settlement Agreement. All shares issued
in connection with the Consolidated Litigation are included in the weighted
average shares outstanding calculation from July 20, 1998 forward.

    A significant number of class members elected not to participate in the
Settlement Agreement described above. In September 1999, the Company reached an
agreement with a number of these parties which calls for the Company to pay
$500,000 in cash to settle these claims (the "Additional Settlement Agreement").
For the remaining parties who did not participate in the Settlement Agreement or
the Additional Settlement Agreement, the Company believes that the applicable
Federal statue of limitations has likely expired and that it does not have
material exposure to these parties. In connection with the above, the Company
has revised its original estimate of the allocation between cash and common
stock of the $20 million provision for settlement of all such shareholder
litigation recorded during its fiscal year ended March 31, 1997 related to the
Class Action Litigation. Accordingly, the Company has reclassified $750,000 in
this quarter from the original settlement reserve to accrued liabilities,
representing the $500,000 Additional Settlement Agreement described above and a
remaining estimate of the probable costs to be incurred in connection with the
remaining parties not a party to the Settlement Agreement or the Additional
Settlement Agreement.

    The plaintiffs in the Consolidated Litigation have reached an agreement with
the Company's former Interim Chief Executive Officer, Lawrence J. Ramaekers, and
his employer, Jay Alix & Associates ("Jay Alix"), regarding the plaintiffs'
alleged claims against them. In return for the Company's agreement to reimburse
Jay Alix and Mr. Ramaekers in the third quarter of fiscal 2000 $1.0 million for
legal fees incurred, Jay Alix and Mr. Ramaekers have released any and all claims
against the Company and its affiliates and directors, including any claims to
indemnification and defense costs incurred by Jay Alix and Mr. Ramaekers in
defending the claims brought by the plaintiffs against them. The Plaintiffs in
the Consolidated Litigation have retained their claims against the Company's
former Chief Executive Officer, Emanuel Pinez, and the Company's former Chief
Financial Officer, James M. Murphy.

SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION INVESTIGATION

     In mid-February 1997, the Company was notified that the Boston District
Office of the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") was conducting an
investigation of the Company. The SEC has requested that the Company provide the
SEC with certain documents concerning the Company's public reports and financial
statements. The SEC indicated that its inquiry should not be construed as an
indication by the SEC or its staff that any violations have occurred, or as a
reflection upon the merits of the securities involved or upon any person who
effected transactions in such securities. The Company is cooperating with the
SEC in connection with this investigation, the outcome of which cannot yet be
determined.


                                       9


WEBSECURE LITIGATION

      On and after March 26, 1997, several complaints were filed against
WebSecure, certain officers, directors and underwriters of WebSecure, and the
Company in the United States District Court for the District of Massachusetts by
plaintiffs purporting to represent classes of shareholders who purchased stock
of WebSecure, Inc. ("WebSecure") between December 5, 1996 and February 27, 1997
(the "WebSecure Complaints"). The claims against the Company include alleged
violations of Sections 11 and 15 of the Securities Act of 1933 (the "1933 Act")
(the "WebSecure Securities Litigation"). In fiscal 1997, the Company established
a reserve of $1.2 million in connection with the expected settlement of the
WebSecure Securities Litigation.

    On September 17, 1999, the Company's agreement to settle the WebSecure
Securities Litigation received final approval by the Court. The settlement
agreement contemplates that the Company and certain of its officers and
directors will be released from any and all liability arising from the
allegations included in the WebSecure Securities Litigation in return for the
issuance to the WebSecure Securities Litigation class of 43,125 shares of the
Company's common stock and the payment to the class of up to $50,000 for notice
and administrative costs. In the second quarter ended September 25, 1999, the
Company revised its estimate of the expected cost to resolve this matter
resulting in income of $940,000. This revision of an estimate was based on the
final settlement amounts approved by the court.

8.  COMPREHENSIVE INCOME

     As of April 1, 1998, the Company adopted FASB Statement No. 130, REPORTING
COMPREHENSIVE INCOME (FASB 130). FASB 130 establishes new rules for the
reporting and display of comprehensive income and its components; however, the
adoption of this Statement had no impact on the Company's net income or
stockholders' equity. FASB 130 requires the Company's foreign currency
translation adjustments, which prior to adoption were reported separately in
shareholders' equity, to be included in other comprehensive income. Accumulated
other comprehensive loss is comprised of cumulative translation adjustments.
Comprehensive Income was $835,000 and $1,051,000 for the three and six month
periods ended September 25, 1999, respectively, and was $1,201,000 and
$1,300,000 for the three and six month periods ended September 26, 1998,
respectively.

9.  SEGMENTS OF BUSINESS ENTERPRISE

     Effective April 1, 1998, the Company adopted the FASB Statement No. 131,
DISCLOSURES ABOUT SEGMENTS OF AN ENTERPRISE AND RELATED INFORMATION (FASB 131).
FASB 131 superseded FASB 14, FINANCIAL REPORTING FOR SEGMENTS OF A BUSINESS
ENTERPRISE. FASB 131 establishes standards for the way that public business
enterprises report information about operating segments in annual financial
statements and requires that those enterprises report selected information about
operating segments in interim financial reports. FASB 131 also establishes
standards for related disclosures about products and services, geographic areas,
and major customers. The Company operates in a single industry segment, the
design and manufacture of high technology memory chip based products used in
industrial and commercial applications. As such, the adoption of FASB 131 did
not affect results of operations, financial position or the disclosure of
segment information.

QUARTER AND SIX MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 25, 1999 AND SEPTEMBER 26, 1998

NET SALES.

    Net sales increased 23% to $7.6 million for the three months ended September
25, 1999 compared to $6.2 million for the same period a year ago. Net sales
increased 15% to $14.3 million for the six months ended September 25, 1999
compared to $12.4 million in the same period a year ago. During the three and
six months ended September 25, 1999, units shipped increased 7% and 16%,
respectively, from the same periods in fiscal 1999. Average selling prices
increased 10% in the second quarter of fiscal 2000 and declined 2% for the first
half of fiscal 2000 compared to the same periods of the prior year. Increasing
component costs between the second quarter of fiscal 1999 compared to the second
quarter of fiscal 2000 contributed to the increase in the average selling price
of the Company's products. The Company expects component costs to increase for
the remainder of fiscal 2000, which the Company believes should continue to
cause an increase in its average selling price. There can be no assurance that
if component costs rise the Company will be able to increase its average selling
price or that competitive pricing pressures will not adversely affect the
average selling price. The Company believes there will be shortages of certain
of its components, particularly with respect to flash memory. Any such shortages
could have a material adverse effect on the Company's business, financial
condition and results of operations.

    The Company continues to experience limited bookings visibility as customers
continue to expect short lead-times, particularly with the Company's major
customers. A majority of the Company's anticipated third quarter revenues are
expected to be orders that will be received and fulfilled in the same quarter.
Due to a number of factors described herein and in "Factors That May Affect
Future Results," the Company's ability to adjust its operating expenses is
limited in the short term. As a result, if product revenues are lower than
anticipated, the Company's results of operations will be adversely affected.

    For the three and six months ended September 25, 1999, no individual
customer represented 10% of the Company's sales. For the three and six months
ended September 26, 1998, one customer represented 19% and 26%, respectively of
the Company's sales. For the three and six months ended September 25, 1999 sales
to this customer represented 4% of the Company's sales. During fiscal 1999, this
customer engaged several contract manufacturers to complete the final assembly
of a majority of its products for which the Company has historically supplied PC
cards. The Company's sales to these contract manufacturers for the three and six
months ended September 25, 1999 represented 15% and 14%, respectively of the
Company's sales. For the three and six months ended September 26, 1998 sales to
these contract manufacturers represented 7% and 5%, respectively of the
Company's sales. One of these contract manufacturers recently announced a merger
with one of the Company's competitors, which could result in a decrease of sales
to this contract manufacturer. If these customers were to reduce significantly
the amount of business they conduct with the Company, it could have a material
adverse effect on the Company's business, financial condition and results of
operations.

    Sales outside of the United States represented 19% and 12% of sales for the
quarters ended September 25, 1999 and September 26, 1998, respectively.

GROSS PROFIT.

    Gross profit increased 32% to $2.5 million for the three months ended
September 25, 1999 compared to $1.9 million for the same period a year ago.
Gross profit percent increased to 33% for the three months ended September 25,
1999 from 31% for the same period a year ago. Gross profit increased 28% to $4.6
million for the six months ended September 25, 1999 compared to $3.6 million for
the same period a year ago. Gross profit percent increased to 32% for the first
six months of fiscal 2000 from 29% for the comparable period of fiscal 1999. The
Company believes costs of certain of its component memory devices will increase
during fiscal 2000. There can be no assurance the Company will be able to
increase its average selling price to offset such component cost increases which
might adversely affect the Company's gross profit amounts and percent.

RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT COSTS.

     Research and development costs increased 150% to $417,000 for the three
months ended September 25, 1999 compared to $167,000 for the three months ended
September 26, 1998. For the first half of fiscal 2000, research and development
costs increased 68% to $621,000 from $369,000 in the same period of fiscal 1999.
The higher research and development costs for the three and six months ended
September 25, 1999 are due generally to increased spending on outside
consultants combined with an increased percentage of employees focused on
development projects. The Company expects that it will continue to spend
significant amounts on research and development in the future.


                                       12


SELLING, GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSES.

     Selling, general and administrative expenses increased 27% million to $1.9
million for the second quarter of fiscal 2000 from $1.5 million in the same
period of fiscal 1999. Selling, general and administrative expenses increased
28% to $3.7 million for the first half of fiscal 2000 from $2.9 million in the
same period of fiscal 1999. The $0.4 million increase in the second quarter of
fiscal 2000 is primarily due to a charge for the termination of an executive.
The $0.8 million increase in expenses for the first half of fiscal 2000 is
attributed to the previously mentioned termination costs combined with $0.5
million refund in directors and officers liability insurance premiums on
policies that were rescinded in February 1997, which refund was recorded in the
first quarter of fiscal 1999 and higher operating costs due to an increase in
personnel for the quarter ended September 25, 1999. Selling, general and
administrative expenses are expected to be slightly lower in absolute dollars
for the remainder of fiscal 2000 as compared to the second fiscal quarter of
2000.

OTHER INCOME.

    Net interest income was $83,000 for the quarter ended September 25, 1999
compared to $81,000 for the quarter ended September 26, 1998.

    On September 17, 1999, the Company's agreement to settle the WebSecure
Securities Litigation received final approval by the Court. The settlement
agreement contemplates that the Company and certain of its officers and
directors will be released from any and all liability arising from the
allegations included in the WebSecure Securities Litigation in return for the
issuance to the WebSecure Securities Litigation class of 43,125 shares of the
Company's common stock and the payment to the class of up to $50,000 for notice
and administrative costs. In the second quarter ended September 25, 1999, the
Company revised its estimate of the expected cost to resolve this matter
resulting in income of $940,000. This revision of an estimate was based on the
final settlement amounts approved by the court.

NET INCOME PER SHARE.

    On July 20, 1999, the Company's shareholders approved a one-for-eight
reverse stock split of its common stock, which was effective as of the opening
of the stock markets on July 23, 1999. In this report, all per share amounts and
numbers of shares have been restated to reflect the reverse stock split.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

    Since inception, the Company has financed its operating activities primarily
from public and private offerings of equity securities, loans from financial
institutions and positive cash flows from operations. Management believes the
existing cash and cash equivalents, short-term investments and available
financing arrangements will be sufficient to meet the Company's currently
anticipated working capital and capital expenditure requirements for the
foreseeable future.

OPERATING ACTIVITIES

     At September 25, 1999, working capital increased to $8.6 million, compared
to working capital of $7.4 million at March 31, 1999, due principally to net
income of $1.1 million for the six months ended September 25, 1999, depreciation
and amortization of $0.6 million offset by net capital expenditures of $0.2
million.

    On November 24, 1998, the Company entered into a credit agreement with Fleet
National Bank for a revolving credit facility, equipment term loan facility and
foreign exchange facility of $3.5 million, $1.5 million and $2.0 million,
respectively. This arrangement contains certain limitations and covenants, the
most restrictive of which is a covenant regarding the maintenance of the
Company's liquidity, as defined. Allowable borrowings are based on accounts
receivable and the cost of equipment, are secured by substantially all of the
Company's assets. At September 25, 1999 and March 31, 1999, the Company had no
outstanding borrowings under these credit facilities.

INVESTING TRANSACTIONS

    Net capital expenditures amounted to $183,000 in the six months ended
September 25, 1999 compared to $261,000 in the six months ended September 26,
1998. The Company had no significant commitments as of September 25, 1999 for
future capital equipment expenditures and had remaining obligations of $325,000
on equipment financing leases.


                                       13


FINANCING TRANSACTIONS

    In April 1999, the Company entered into a five-year lease for a new piece of
manufacturing equipment. Monthly payments under this lease are $6,318. In
October 1999, the Company entered into another five-year lease for additional
manufacturing equipment. Monthly payments under this lease of $16,217 will
commence in November 1999.

INVESTMENT IN CENTURY ELECTRONICS MANUFACTURING, INC.

    Since October 1996, the Company has held an equity interest in Century
Electronics Manufacturing, Inc. ("Century"), a contract manufacturer.

    On February 4, 1998, Century redeemed a portion of the Company's debt and
equity holdings in Century in exchange for $9.7 million in cash, $4.0 million of
Century Series B Convertible Preferred Stock and the forgiveness of certain
interest. The Series B Convertible Preferred Stock is equivalent upon conversion
to approximately 5%, non-diluted, of Century's outstanding shares, is
non-voting, has no dividend, and has a liquidation preference of $4.0 million
senior to the common shareholders and subordinate to the holders of Century
Series A Convertible Preferred Stock. The Company recorded a loss on investment
activities of $5.1 million in the third quarter of fiscal 1998 to reflect the
difference between the fair value of the consideration received from Century and
the carrying value of the Company's investment in Century.

    During fiscal 1999, the Company reduced the carrying value of its investment
in Century by $733,000 to $1.7 million, reflecting management's assessment of
the deterioration in value of contract manufacturing businesses in general and a
permanent decline in the value of its investment. In August 1999, Century filed
a registration statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission in
preparation for a planned initial public offering of Century's common stock at
an estimated price between $8.00 and $10.00 per share. The preferred shares that
Centennial owns are convertible into 666,667 shares of Century common stock.
Centennial's shares of Century stock are subject to certain restrictions on
sales and are not readily saleable for a period of 180 days following the
consummation of Century's initial public offering. There can be no assurance
that the public offering of Century common stock will occur within the estimated
price range or at all.

CONTINGENCIES

     The Company has been a defendant in numerous lawsuits alleging violations
of securities and other laws in connection with the Company's prior reported
financial results and certain other related matters. These lawsuits are
described more fully in "Item 1 -- Legal Proceedings" which is incorporated
herein by this reference. The Company has been granted final approval of its
proposed settlement of these suits, has issued cash and stock in satisfaction of
its obligations to the class action plaintiffs in the Consolidated Litigation.
As of March 31, 1997, the Company recorded a provision for the settlement of the
Consolidated Litigation of $20.0 million, representing its estimate of the cash
portion of the settlement, together with an amount equal to 37% of the estimated
market capitalization of the Company. The Company satisfied its obligations
regarding the cash portion ($1,475,000) of the Settlement Agreement by remitting
that amount into a settlement fund during fiscal 1998. The Company has issued
854,300 shares of common stock pursuant to the Settlement Agreement. The
Company's agreement with the opt outs calls for the Company to pay $500,000 to
settle these claims, and the Company has this amount reserved as of September
25, 1999. The Company reached an agreement with the Company's former Interim
Chief Executive Officer, Lawrence J. Ramaekers, and his employer, Jay Alix &
Associates, which calls for the Company to pay $1.0 million in the third quarter
of fiscal 2000. The Company's agreement to settle the Websecure litigation calls
for the Company to issue 43,125 shares of the Company's common stock and for a
payment of $50,000, which has already been made.

FACTORS THAT MAY AFFECT FUTURE RESULTS

    From time to time, information provided by the Company or statements made by
its employees may contain forward-looking information. The Company's actual
results may differ materially from those projections or suggestions made in such
forward-looking information as a result of various potential risks and
uncertainties including, but not limited to, the factors discussed below.


                                       14


DEPENDENCE ON MAJOR CUSTOMERS.

    A relatively small number of customers have accounted for a significant
percentage of the Company's net sales. If these customers were to reduce
significantly the amount of business they conduct with the Company, it could
have a material adverse effect on the Company's business, financial condition
and results of operations.

    For the three and six months ended September 25, 1999, no individual
customer represented 10% of the Company's sales. For the three and six months
ended September 26, 1998, one customer represented 19% and 26%, respectively of
the Company's sales. For the three and six months ended September 25, 1999,
sales to this customer represented 4% of the Company's sales. During fiscal
1999, this customer engaged several contract manufacturers to complete the final
assembly of a majority of its products for which the Company has historically
supplied PC cards. The Company's sales to these contract manufacturers for the
three and six months ended September 25, 1999 represented 15% and 14%,
respectively of the Company's sales. For the three and six months ended
September 26, 1998 sales to these contract manufacturers represented 7% and 5%,
respectively of the Company's sales. One of these contract manufacturers
recently announced a merger with one of the Company's competitors, which could
result in a decrease of sales to this contract manufacturer. If these customers
were to reduce significantly the amount of business they conduct with the
Company, it could have a material adverse effect on the Company's business,
financial condition and results of operations.

    The Company has no firm long-term volume commitments from any of its major
customers and generally enters into individual purchase orders with its
customers. The Company has experienced fluctuations in order levels from period
to period and expects it will continue to experience such cancellations and
fluctuations in the future. The Company's business, financial condition and
results of operations will depend in significant part on its ability to obtain
orders from new customers, as well as on financial condition and success of its
customers. Therefore, any adverse factors affecting any of the Company's
customers or their customers could have a material adverse effect on the
Company's business, financial condition and results of operations. The
industries served by the Company are characterized by frequent mergers,
consolidations, acquisitions, corporate restructuring and changes in management,
and the Company has from time to time experienced reductions in purchase orders
from customers as a result of such events. There can be no assurance that such
events involving customers of the Company will not result in a significant
reduction in the level of sales by the Company to such customers or the
termination of the Company's relationship with such customers. In addition, the
percentage of the Company's sales to individual customers may fluctuate from
period to period. Customer orders can be canceled and volume levels can be
changed or delayed. The timely replacement of canceled, delayed, or reduced
orders with new customers cannot be assured. These risks are exacerbated because
a majority of the Company's sales are to customers in the electronics industry,
which is subject to rapid technological change and product obsolescence. The
electronics industry is also subject to economic cycles and has experienced, and
is likely to experience, fluctuations in demand. The Company anticipates that a
significant portion of its sales will continue for the foreseeable future to be
concentrated in a small number of customers in the electronics industry.

RAW MATERIAL SHORTAGES AND DEPENDENCE ON SINGLE SOURCE SUPPLIERS.

     The Company has from time to time experienced shortages in the supply of
computer memory chips and other electronic components used to manufacture PC
cards. The Company is currently experiencing supply shortages, particularly with
respect to computer memory chips and other electronic components used in
products targeted at high-growth market segments. Currently, certain memory
chips important to the Company's products are on industry-wide allocation by
suppliers. Such shortages could have a material adverse effect on the Company's
business, financial condition and results of operations. The Company believes it
will be able to substantially meet customers' orders for the Company's fiscal
third quarter. At this time the Company is unable to determine what the impact
will be thereafter.

     The Company purchases certain key components from single source vendors for
which alternative sources are not currently available. The Company does not
maintain long-term supply agreements with any of its vendors. The inability to
develop alternative sources for these single source components or to obtain
sufficient quantities of components could result in delays or reductions in
product shipments, or higher prices for these components, or both, any of which
could materially and adversely affect the Company's business, financial
condition and results of operations. No assurance can be given that one or more
of the Company's vendors will not reduce supplies to the Company.

COMPETITION.

     The market in which the Company competes is intensely competitive. The
Company competes with manufacturers of PC cards and related products, including
SanDisk Corporation and Smart Modular Technologies, Inc., as well as with
electronic component manufacturers who also manufacture PC cards, including
Advanced Micro Devices, Inc., Hitachi Semiconductor, Inc., Intel


                                       15


Corporation and Mitsubishi Electric Corporation. Certain of these competitors
supply the Company with raw materials, including electronic components, which
are occasionally and are at present, subject to industry wide allocation. These
competitors may have the ability to manufacture products at lower costs than the
Company as a result of their higher levels of integration. In addition, many of
the Company's competitors or potential competitors have greater name
recognition, a larger installed base of customers, more extensive engineering,
manufacturing, marketing, distribution and support capabilities and greater
financial, technological and personnel resources than the Company. The Company
expects competition to increase in the future from existing competitors and from
other companies that may enter the Company's existing or future markets with
similar or alternative products that may be less costly or provide additional
features. The Company believes that its ability to compete successfully depends
on a number of factors, including the following:


                                                         
         - product quality and performance                  - order turnaround
         - provision of competitive design capabilities     - timely response to advances in technology
         - adequate manufacturing capacity                  - production efficiency
         - timing of new product introductions by the       - number and nature of the Company's competitors
             Company, its customers and its competitors         in a given market
         - price                                            - general market and economic conditions


In addition, market conditions are expected to lead to intensified price
competition for the Company's products and services, which could materially and
adversely affect the Company's business, financial condition and results of
operations. There can be no assurance that the Company will compete successfully
in the future.

HISTORICAL SINGLE PRODUCT CONCENTRATION.

     PC cards and related services constitute 100% of the Company's sales for
fiscal 1999 and the first half of fiscal 2000. The market for PC cards is still
developing and there can be no assurance that computing and electronic equipment
that utilize PC cards will not be modified to render the Company's PC cards
obsolete or otherwise have the effect of reducing demand for the Company's PC
cards. In addition, the Company faces intense competition from competitors that
have greater financial, marketing and technological resources than the Company,
which competition may reduce demand for the Company's PC cards. Decreased demand
for the Company's PC cards as a result of technological change, competition or
other factors would have a material adverse effect on the Company's business,
financial condition and results of operations.

DECLINING AVERAGE SALES PRICES.

    The Company has experienced, and may in the future experience, declining
average sales prices for its products. The data storage markets in which the
Company competes are characterized by intense competition. Therefore, the
Company expects to incur increasing pricing pressures from its customers in
future periods, which may result in a further decline in average sales prices
for the Company's products. The Company believes that it must continue to
achieve manufacturing costs reductions, develop new products that incorporate
customized features and increase its volume of PC card sales in order to offset
the effect of these declining average sales prices. If the Company were not able
to achieve such cost reductions, develop new customized products or increase its
unit sales volumes, each of these factors could have a material adverse effect
on the Company's business, financial condition and results of operations.

FLUCTUATIONS IN QUARTERLY RESULTS.

    The Company's quarterly and annual operating results have fluctuated
significantly in the past and we expect that they will continue to fluctuate in
the future. This fluctuation is a result of a variety of factors, including the
following:


                                                          
         - timing of receipt and delivery of                 - competitive pricing pressures
           significant orders for the Company's products     - increases in raw material costs
         - changes in customer and product mix               - production difficulties
         - quality of the Company's products                 - write-downs or write-offs of investments in other companies
         - exchange rate fluctuations                        - market acceptance of new or enhanced versions
         - litigation settlements and revisions of               the Company's products
             estimates thereon in connection with            - raw material shortages
             the company's legal matters



                                       16


    Other factors, some of which are beyond the Company's control, may also
cause fluctuations in the Company's results of operations. The Company has short
lead times from customers, and accordingly does not have a significant backlog.
Additionally, as is the case with many high technology companies, a significant
portion of the Company's orders and shipments typically occurs in the last few
weeks of a quarter. As a result, revenues for a quarter are not predictable, and
the Company's revenues may shift from one quarter to the next, having a
significant effect on reported results.

FLUCTUATIONS IN TRADING PRICE.

    The trading price of the Company's Common Stock may fluctuate widely in
response to, among other things, the following:


                                                          
         - quarter-to-quarter operating results              - industry conditions
         - awards of orders to the Company                   - new product or product development
             or its competitors                                  announcements by the Company or its competitors
         - changes in earnings estimates by analysts         - resolution of pending SEC investigation


    There can be no assurance that the Company's future performance will meet
the expectations of analysts or investors. In addition, the volatility of the
stock markets may cause wide fluctuations in trading prices of securities of
high technology companies. The Company's Common Stock is currently traded at the
over-the-counter Bulletin Board, which the Company believes has resulted in a
minimal amount of analyst coverage. Although the Company has applied to have its
common stock listed on the NASDAQ National Market, there can be no assurance
that the common stock will be so listed on a timely basis or at all.

DEPENDENCE ON KEY PERSONNEL.

    The Company's success depends to a significant degree upon the efforts and
abilities of members of its senior management and other key personnel, including
technical personnel. The loss of any of these individuals could have a material
adverse effect on the Company's business, financial condition and results of
operations. The Company's business also depends upon its ability to continue to
attract and retain senior managers and skilled technical employees. Failure to
attract and retain such senior personnel could materially and adversely affect
the Company's business, financial condition and results of operations.

NEED TO RESPOND TO RAPID TECHNOLOGICAL CHANGE.

     The markets for the Company's products are characterized by rapid
technological change, evolving industry standards and rapid product
obsolescence. Rapid technological development substantially shortens product
life cycles, and the Company's growth and future success will depend upon its
ability, on a timely basis, to develop and introduce new products, to enhance
existing products and to adapt products for various industrial applications and
equipment platforms, as well as upon customer acceptance of these products,
enhancements and adaptations. The Company, having more limited resources than
many of its competitors, focuses its development efforts at any given time to a
relatively narrow scope of development projects. There can be no assurance that
the Company will select the correct projects for development or that the
Company's development efforts will be successful. In addition, no assurance can
be given that the Company will not experience difficulties that could delay or
prevent the successful development, introduction or marketing of new products,
that new products and product enhancements will meet the requirements of the
marketplace and achieve market acceptance, or that the Company's current or
future products will conform to applicable industry standards. Any inability of
the Company to introduce on a timely basis new products or enhancements that
contribute to profitable sales would have a material adverse effect on the
Company's business, financial condition and results of operations.

ANTI-TAKEOVER PROVISIONS.

    The Company has taken a number of actions that could have the effect of
discouraging a takeover attempt. For example, the Company has adopted a
Shareholder Rights Plan that would cause substantial dilution to a stockholder
who attempts to acquire the Company on terms not approved by the Company's Board
of Directors. In addition, the Company's Certificate of Incorporation grants the
Board of Directors the authority to fix the rights, preferences and privileges
of and issue up to 1,000,000 shares of Preferred Stock without stockholder
action. The Board of Directors has reserved 50,000 shares of Preferred Stock for
issuance pursuant to the Company's Shareholder Rights Plan. Although the Company
has no present intention of issuing shares of Preferred Stock, such an issuance
could have the effect of making it more difficult and less attractive for a
third party to acquire a majority of our outstanding voting stock. Preferred
Stock may also have other rights, including economic rights senior to the Common
Stock that could have a material adverse effect on the market value of the
Common Stock. In addition, the Company is subject to the anti-takeover
provisions of Section 203 of the Delaware General Corporation Law. This section
provides that a corporation shall not engage in any business


                                       17


combination with any interested shareholder during the three-year period
following the time that such stockholder becomes an interested shareholder. This
provision could have the effect of delaying or preventing a change in control of
the Company.

YEAR 2000 COMPLIANCE.

     The Company is aware of problems associated with computer systems as the
year 2000 approaches. "Year 2000" problems are the result of common computer
programming techniques that result in systems that do not function properly when
manipulating dates later than December 31, 1999. The issue is complex and
wide-ranging. The problem may affect transaction processing computer
applications used by the Company for accounting, distribution, manufacturing,
planning and other applications. Problems may also affect embedded systems such
as building security systems, machine controllers and production test equipment.
Year 2000 problems with any or all of these systems may affect the effectiveness
or efficiency with which the Company can perform many significant functions,
including but not limited to:

         -  order processing            -  material planning
         -  product assembly            -  product test
         -  invoicing                   -  payroll and financial reporting

In addition, the problem may affect the computer systems of vendors and
customers, disrupting their operations and possibly impairing the Company's
sources of supply and demand.

     The Company has established a Year 2000 readiness team to assess the impact
of the Year 2000 issue on the Company, and to coordinate testing and remediation
activities. In general, the Company's products do not perform date related
processing and the Company therefore believes that its products will not be
materially affected by Year 2000 issues. Product testing has uncovered no Year
2000 problems, and investigation into product design, specifically firmware and
microcode has uncovered no design assumptions or application programming
interfaces that would cause Year 2000 problems. The Company has also tested 100%
of its manufacturing, testing and labeling equipment and uncovered no Year 2000
problems. The Company has not specifically tested software obtained from its
customers that is incorporated into its products for such customers, which may
in some cases involve date related processing, but the Company has sought
assurances from all of its customers that provide the Company with software for
incorporation into the Company's products that the software is Year 2000
compliant, as well as a disclaimer of liability and indemnification should any
Year 2000 issues arise with regard to the customer's software. The Company has
received responses from most of its key customers and has not found any issues
with these responses. There can be no assurance that the Company will be
successful in obtaining from these customers such assurance or indemnification.

     The Company has completed its Year 2000 compliance assessment and
remediation of the Company's management information system. The Company upgraded
its core management information systems to address the Year 2000 issues with
respect to internal budgeting, financial planning, material planning, sales
order processing, accounting, inventory control, shop floor accounting and
purchasing. All of the modules of this new system are currently operational. The
Company has tested the upgrade to verify its Year 2000 compliance. The cost of
this management information system was approximately $450,000, of which
approximately $394,000 is attributable to the purchase of new software, which
has been capitalized; the balance has been expensed as incurred. The Company has
used operating cash flows as the source of funds for Year 2000 compliance
issues.

     The Company believes its tertiary business information system is Year 2000
compliant. The Company believes that over 95% of its desktop PC hardware units
are Year 2000 compliant. The majority of the software used on these systems and
network servers is composed of recent versions of vendor supported, commercially
available products that the Company believes are Year 2000 compliant. Upgrading
these applications as respective vendors release Year 2000 compliant patches has
not been a significant burden on the Company. The Company has also replaced and
tested one operating system that was not and could not be modified to become
year 2000 compliant. The cost for this new system was not material.

     The Company has completed its assessment and remediation of Year 2000
problems with computer systems used for facilities control. The Company has
recently purchased a Year 2000 compliant telephone system. The cost to purchase
and install the new telephone systems was approximately $108,000, which has been
capitalized. The Company has also tested its building security system and
determined that it is Year 2000 compliant.

     During fiscal 1999, the Company initiated formal communications with its
key suppliers and customers regarding their Year 2000 readiness status. The
Company has received responses from all of its key suppliers and has found these
responses to indicate suppliers to be Year 2000 compliant. The Company has also
received responses from most of its key customers. While suppliers and customers


                                       18


may indicate that their products are or will be Year 2000 compliant prior to the
year 2000 and that they expect their operations and services will continue
uninterrupted, the Company can provide no assurances that the Company's key
suppliers and customers have, or will have technology systems, non-information
technology systems and products that are Year 2000 compliant. Any Year 2000
compliance problem facing the Company's customers or suppliers could have a
material adverse effect on the Company's business, financial condition and
results of operations.

     Any additional expenses related to the management of the Company's Year
2000 compliance program are not expected to be material to the Company's
quarterly operating results. The Company estimates that it has spent in
aggregate approximately $600,000 in addressing Year 2000 readiness issues. These
expenditures have been funded through operations.

     The Company has not deferred or delayed any information technology projects
due to Year 2000 efforts.

     The costs and time schedules for the Company's Year 2000 problem abatement
are based on management's best estimates for the implementation of its new
operating system and Year 2000 problems uncovered to date. These estimates were
derived from utilizing numerous assumptions, including that the most significant
Year 2000 risks have already been identified, that certain resources will
continue to be available, that third party plans will be fulfilled, and other
factors. However, there can be no assurance that these estimates will be
achieved or that the anticipated time schedule will be met. Actual results could
differ materially from those anticipated.

     Because computer systems may involve different hardware, firmware and
software components from different manufacturers, it may be difficult to
determine which component in a computer system may cause a Year 2000 issue. As a
result, the Company may be subjected to Year 2000-related lawsuits independent
of whether its products and services are Year 2000 ready. Any Year 2000 related
lawsuits, if adversely determined, could have a material adverse effect on the
Company's business, financial condition and results of operations.

     The Company has prepared contingency plans for critical areas to address
Year 2000 failures if remedial efforts are not fully successful. Should
previously undetected Year 2000 problems be found in systems that support the
Company's on-going operations or other systems, these systems will be upgraded,
replaced, turned off or operated in place with manual procedures to compensate
for their deficiencies. While the Company believes that these alternative plans
would be adequate to meet the Company's need without materially impacting its
operations, there can be no assurance that such alternatives would be successful
or that the Company's results of operations would not be materially adversely
affected by the delays and inefficiencies inherent in conducting operations in
this manner.

      There may be additional Year 2000 problems that are as yet unknown to the
Company and for which remediation plans have not yet been made. Any such Year
2000 compliance problem of the Company, its suppliers or its customers could
materially adversely affect the Company's business, results of operations,
financial condition and prospects. If, for example, third party suppliers were
unable to deliver necessary components, the Company may be unable to manufacture
products in a timely manner. Similarly, if shipping and freight forwarders were
unable to ship product, the Company would be unable to deliver product to its
customers. There can be no assurance that the Company's insurance will cover
losses from business interruptions arising from year 2000 problems of the
Company or its suppliers or customers.

     The foregoing discussion of the Company's Year 2000 readiness includes
forward-looking statements, including estimates of the timeframes and costs for
addressing the known Year 2000 issues confronting the Company, and is based on
management's current estimates, which were derived using numerous assumptions.
There can be no assurance that these estimates will be achieved, and actual
events and results could differ materially from those anticipated. Specific
factors that might cause such material differences include, but are not limited
to, the ability of the Company to identify and correct all relevant computer
code and the success of third parties with whom the Company does business in
addressing their Year 2000 issues.

RISKS OF INTERNATIONAL OPERATIONS AND EURO CURRENCY.

     For the six months ended September 25, 1999 and September 26, 1998, the
Company derived approximately 19% and 10%, respectively, of its sales from
outside the United States. The Company's international operations subject the
Company to the risks of doing business abroad, including currency fluctuations,
export duties, import controls and trade barriers, restrictions on the transfer
of funds, greater difficulty in accounts receivable collection, burdens of
complying with a wide variety of foreign laws and, in certain parts of the
world, political instability.


                                       19


     Beginning in 1999, 11 member countries of the European union established
fixed conversion rates between their existing sovereign currencies and adopted
the Euro as their common legal currency. During the three year transition, the
Euro will be available for non-cash transactions and legacy currencies will
remain legal tender. The Company is continuing to assess the Euro's impact on
its business. The Company is reviewing the ability of its accounting and
information systems to handle the conversion, the legal and contractual
implications of agreements, as well as pricing strategies. The Company expects
that any additional modifications to its operations and systems will be
completed on a timely basis and do not believe the conversion will have a
material adverse impact on its operations. However, there can be no assurance
that the Company will be able to modify successfully all systems and contracts
to comply with Euro requirements.

PROTECTION OF PROPRIETARY INFORMATION.

     The Company's products require technical know-how to engineer and
manufacture. To the extent proprietary technology is involved, the Company
relies on trade secrets that it seeks to protect, in part, through
confidentiality agreements with certain employees, consultants and other
parties. There can be no assurance that these agreements will not be breached,
that the Company will have adequate remedies for any breach, or that the
Company's trade secrets will not otherwise become known to, or independently
developed by, existing or potential competitors of the Company. The Company
historically has not sought to protect its proprietary information through
patents or registered trademarks, although it instituted a patent program in
fiscal 1999. There can be no assurance that the Company's products will not
infringe on patents held by others. The Company may be involved from time to
time in litigation to determine the enforceability, scope and validity of its
rights. Litigation could result in substantial cost to the Company and could
divert the attention and time of the Company's management and technical
personnel from the operations of the Company.

     The Company currently licenses certain proprietary and patented technology
from third parties. There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to
continue to license such technology, that such licenses will be or remain
exclusive or that any patented technology licensed by the Company will provide
meaningful protection from competitors. In the event that a competitor's
products were to infringe on patents licensed by the Company, it would be costly
for the Company to enforce its rights in an infringement action and such an
action would divert funds and management resources from the Company's
operations.

RISKS OF ACQUISITIONS AND INVESTMENTS IN OTHER COMPANIES.

     The Company has terminated its earlier program of acquiring interests in
companies and related technologies, and has written-off or provided valuation
reserves for many such investments. However, the Company may determine that it
is in the best interests to acquire or invest in other companies in the future.
There can be no assurance that the companies in which the Company has invested
(or may invest) will develop successful products or technologies beneficial to
the Company or that such investments will be economically justified.

ENVIRONMENTAL COMPLIANCE.

     The Company is subject to a variety of environmental regulations relating
to the use, storage and disposal of hazardous chemicals used during its
manufacturing processes. Any failure by the Company to comply with present and
future regulations could subject the Company to significant liabilities. In
addition, such regulations could restrict the Company's ability to expand its
facilities or could require the Company to acquire costly equipment or to incur
other significant expenses in order to comply with regulations.

ITEM 3.  QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

     The Company's financial instruments consist principally of cash and cash
equivalents, short-term investments, accounts receivable, and accounts payable
and other accrued expenses. The Company believes all of the carrying amounts
approximate fair value.


                                       20


PART II- OTHER INFORMATION

ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

CLASS ACTION LITIGATION

    Since the Company's announcement on February 11, 1997 that it was
undertaking an inquiry into the accuracy of its prior reported financial
results, and that preliminary information had raised questions as to whether
reported results contained material misstatements, approximately 40 purported
class action lawsuits were filed in or transferred to the United States District
Court for the District of Massachusetts. These complaints asserted claims
against the Company and the Company's Board of Directors, officers and former
independent accounts, among others, under Section 10(b) and 20(a) of the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the "1934 Act") and Rule 10b-5 promulgated
thereunder, and related state law claims of fraud, deceit and negligent
misrepresentation. These class action lawsuits were purportedly brought by and
on behalf of purchasers of the Company's Common Stock (i) between the Company's
initial public offering on April 12, 1994 and on February 10, 1997 or (ii) on
February 25, 1997.

    On February 9, 1998, these class action lawsuits were consolidated (the
"Consolidated Litigation"), and the Company and lead counsel representing the
plaintiffs in the Consolidated Litigation filed a Stipulation of Settlement (the
"Settlement Agreement"), whereby the Company and certain of its officers and
directors would be released from liability arising from the allegations included
in the Consolidated Litigation. In return, the Company agreed to pay the
plaintiffs in the Consolidated Litigation $1.475 million in cash and to issue to
these plaintiffs 37% of the Company's Common Stock. The Company also agreed to
adopt certain corporate governance policies and procedures. The Settlement
Agreement became effective on July 20, 1998. The Company has issued 854,300
shares of common stock pursuant to the Settlement Agreement. All shares issued
in connection with the Consolidated Litigation are included in the weighted
average shares outstanding calculation from July 20, 1998 forward.

    A significant number of class members elected not to participate in the
Settlement Agreement described above. In September 1999, the Company reached an
agreement with a number of these parties which calls for the Company to pay
$500,000 in cash to settle these claims (the "Additional Settlement Agreement").
For the remaining parties who did not participate in the Settlement Agreement or
the Additional Settlement Agreement, the Company believes that the applicable
Federal statue of limitations has likely expired and that it does not have
material exposure to these parties. In connection with the above, the Company
has revised its original estimate of the allocation between cash and common
stock of the $20 million provision for settlement of all such shareholder
litigation recorded during its fiscal year ended March 31, 1997 related to the
Class Action Litigation. Accordingly, the Company has reclassified $750,000 in
this quarter from the original settlement reserve to accrued liabilities,
representing the $500,000 Additional Settlement Agreement described above and a
remaining estimate of the probable costs to be incurred in connection with the
remaining parties not a party to the Settlement Agreement or the Additional
Settlement Agreement

    The plaintiffs in the Consolidated Litigation have reached an agreement with
the Company's former Interim Chief Executive Officer, Lawrence J. Ramaekers, and
his employer, Jay Alix & Associates ("Jay Alix"), regarding the plaintiffs'
alleged claims against them. In return for the Company's agreement to reimburse
Jay Alix and Mr. Ramaekers in the third quarter of fiscal 2000 $1.0 million for
legal fees incurred, Jay Alix and Mr. Ramaekers have released any and all claims
against the Company and its affiliates and directors, including any claims to
indemnification and defense costs incurred by Jay Alix and Mr. Ramaekers in
defending the claims brought by the plaintiffs against them. The Plaintiffs in
the Consolidated Litigation have retained their claims against the Company's
former Chief Executive Officer, Emanuel Pinez, and the Company's former Chief
Financial Officer, James M. Murphy.

SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION INVESTIGATION

      In mid-February 1997, the Company was notified that the Boston District
Office of the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") was conducting an
investigation of the Company. The SEC has requested that the Company provide the
SEC with certain documents concerning the Company's public reports and financial
statements. The SEC indicated that its inquiry should not be construed as an
indication by the SEC or its staff that any violations have occurred, or as a
reflection upon the merits of the securities involved or upon any person who
effected transactions in such securities. The Company is cooperating with the
SEC in connection with this investigation, the outcome of which cannot yet be
determined.

WEBSECURE LITIGATION

      On and after March 26, 1997, several complaints were filed against
WebSecure, certain officers, directors and underwriters of WebSecure, and the
Company in the United States District Court for the District of Massachusetts by
plaintiffs purporting to represent


                                       21


classes of shareholders who purchased stock of WebSecure, Inc. ("WebSecure")
between December 5, 1996 and February 27, 1997 (the "WebSecure Complaints"). The
claims against the Company include alleged violations of Sections 11 and 15 of
the Securities Act of 1933 (the "1933 Act") (the "WebSecure Securities
Litigation"). In fiscal 1997, the Company established a reserve of $1.2 million
in connection with the expected settlement of the WebSecure Securities
Litigation.

     On September 17, 1999, the Company's agreement to settle the WebSecure
Securities Litigation received final approval by the Court. The settlement
agreement contemplates that the Company and certain of its officers and
directors will be released from any and all liability arising from the
allegations included in the WebSecure Securities Litigation in return for the
issuance to the WebSecure Securities Litigation class of 43,125 shares of the
Company's common stock and the payment to the class of up to $50,000 for notice
and administrative costs. In the second quarter ended September 25, 1999, the
Company revised its estimate of the expected cost to resolve this matter
resulting in income of $940,000. This revision of an estimate was based on the
final settlement amounts approved by the court.

ITEM 2. CHANGES IN SECURITIES

     On July 20, 1999, the Company's stockholders approved a one-for-eight
reverse split of its Common Stock, which was effective as of July 23, 1999.
