NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
-----------------------------
(UNAUDITED)
-----------
Note 1 The accompanying financial statements have been prepared in
accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim
financial information. Accordingly, they do not include all of the
information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting
principles for complete financial statements. In the opinion of
management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals)
considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included.
Operating results for the three month period ended January 31, 2000 is
not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the
year ended October 31, 2000. For further information, refer to the
financial statements and footnotes thereto included in the Company's
annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended October 31, 1999.
Note 2 In February 1997, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB")
issued Statement No. 128, "Earnings per Share." Statement No. 128
replaced the previously reported primary and fully diluted earnings per
share with basic and diluted earnings per share. Unlike primary
earnings per share, basic earnings per share excludes any dilutive
effects of stock options and convertible securities. Diluted earnings
per share is very similar to the previously reported fully diluted
earnings per share. All earnings per share amounts for all periods have
been presented, and where necessary, restated to conform to Statement
No. 128 requirements.
Note 3 The preferred stock issued December 22, 1993 provided for an annual
cumulative dividend to be paid on November 1st each year. Management
has determined that available funds would be more prudently utilized in
its ongoing research and development efforts and as a result no accrual
or payment of dividend will be made until such time as sufficient cash
flows are generated from operations. Management intends to hold the
dividend payable as of October 31, 1999 ($1,126,772) and 1998
($924,193), in arrears. No dividend was accrued for the years ended
October 31, 1999 and 1998. The amount that would have been accrued at
October 31, 1999 and 1998, if a dividend had been recorded, would have
been $202,579 and $207,077, respectively ($.16 per preferred stock
share outstanding at November 1, 1999 and 1998). No dividend has been
accrued for the three month period ended January 31, 2000. The amount
that would have been accrued at January 31, 2000 and 1999, if a
dividend had been recorded, would have been $50,645 and $51,769
respectively.
Note 4 On December 3, 1993, the shareholders of the Company approved an
amendment to the Company's certificate of incorporation increasing the
authorized number of shares of common stock to 45,000,000 from
25,000,000, increasing the authorized number of preferred stock to
5,000,000 from 2,000,000 and reducing the par value of the preferred
stock to $.01 per share from $10.00 per share.
On December 22, 1993, the Company completed the issuance of 1,725,000
units of its securities through a public offering, resulting in net
proceeds of $2,838,454 after offering expenses. Each unit consists of
one share of the redeemable convertible preferred stock and one Class A
redeemable common stock purchase warrant. Each share of preferred stock
is convertible into four shares of the Company's common stock. The
Class A purchase warrant expired on December 12, 1998. There were no
preferred stock conversions for the three months ended January 31,
2000. The preferred stock has a liquidation preference of $2.00 per
share, an aggregate of $2,588,460.

Note 5 (continued)
Securities that could potentially dilute basic earnings per share in
the future that were not included in the computation of diluted
earnings per share above because to do so would have been antidulitive
are as follows: convertible preferred stock (5,064,480 and 5,343,960
shares at January 31, 2000 and 1999, respectively) .
Note 6 Earnings per common share are calculated based upon a weighted
average of shares outstanding after giving effect to the preferred
dividend requirements.

=========== ==========
The company entered fiscal 2000 with cumulative net operating loss

purposes which expire in the years 2000 to 2019.
Note 8 Patents included in the other assets section of the balance sheet are
certain costs associated with patents, which are capitalized and
amortized over the shorter of their statutory lives or their estimated
useful lives using the straight-line method. The Company periodically
evaluates the recoverability of these assets in accordance with
Statement of Financial Standards No. 121, "Accounting for the
Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to be
Disposed of (SFAS #121)."
In the opinion of management, inflation has not had a material effect
on the operations of the Company.

SPECIAL CAUTIONARY NOTICE REGARD FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
Certain of the matters discussed under the caption "Management's Discussion and
Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations" may constitute
forward-looking statements for purposes of the Securities Act of 1933 and the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and as such may involve known and
unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors which may cause the actual
results, performance or achievements of the Company to be materially different
from future results, performance or achievements expressed or implied by such
forward-looking statements. The words "expect," "estimate," "anticipate,"
"predict," "may," "should," and similar expressions are intended to identify
forward-looking statements. All written or oral forward-looking statements
attributable to the Company are expressly qualified as set forth herein.
ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS.
Quarter-to-quarter revenue has improved from $236,844 to $291,242 representing
an increase of 23%. The Company has also returned to profitability by recording
a net income of $20,898 versus a net loss of $9,447 for the quarter ended in
October 31, 1999. This was accomplished under the full impact of across the
board major price reduction in all of our products that have become effective on
October 1, 1999.
Comparing to a year ago, same quarter results, we, obviously, still have some
distance to go. The difference rests with the loss of a key customer in the
second quarter of fiscal 1999. Recovering the major customer or securing the
postal project business should return the Company to a strong financial position
and back in a dynamic growth path.
We have increased R&D activities by introducing several new products including a
patent pending Money Checker that provides a simple and effective way to
authenticate the new US currency bills. Several new chemicals have been
developed for security as well as entertainment-leisure applications. We
continue to aggressively promote our Glow-Hard product line by courting
potential distributors and attending trade shows.
Selling, general and administrative expenses were relatively flat in spite of
the extraordinary expenses associated with the year-end audit. The Management
believes the Company's cost control effort continues to be effective.
The decrease in Cash and Cash Equivalents was mainly due to late billings. The
Management continues to believe that the Balance Sheet remains relatively strong
and there is sufficient liquidity to allow the Company to operate through at
least October 31, 2000, the end of its current fiscal year, and for some time
thereafter. Additionally, the Company has become debt free beginning January 1,
2000.
-9-
11
We have begun to see some activities in the long delayed postal business. Gross
margin should continue to improve if the postal project finally develops into a
steady business.
We continue to face potential increases in chemical inventory because of the
loss of a major customer and over purchase made early last fiscal year. We are
diligently attempting to reduce the exposure through price reduction and
aggressive promotion of those chemicals.
In general the Management believes the Company is making strong recovery from
the dismal performance in the last three quarters of fiscal year 1999. The
prospect of continuing to make improvements over the next several quarters
appears to be good. The Company is also making progress in regaining some
business from the major customer lost through new and genuine efforts in
excellent customer service and price reduction to become more competitive in the
market place.
