                                     PART I

ITEM 1.  BUSINESS

GENERAL

    Ultrak, Inc. (the "Company" or "Ultrak") designs, manufactures, markets,
sells and services innovative electronic products and systems for use in
security and surveillance, industrial video and professional audio markets
worldwide. These products and systems include a broad line of cameras, lenses,
high-speed dome systems, monitors, switchers, quad processors, time lapse
recorders, multiplexers, video transmission systems, access control systems,
computerized observation and security systems, audio equipment and accessories.
The Company has generated rapid growth with sales increasing from $1.8 million
in 1987 to $195 million in 1998.

    It is the Company's objective to set new standards in quality, performance
and value by providing single-source Enterprise Security Solutions to its
customers in the form of integrated systems whereby all closed circuit
television ("CCTV") components, alarms, access control, and badging as well as
facility and alarm management functions and reporting are controlled from one
single console. Integrated systems better serve the end user by improving their
ease of operation, security, health/safety and loss prevention, and at the same
time reducing maintenance and training costs. Ultrak's management believes that
integrated systems provide customers maximum functionality at the lowest
possible cost.

    The Company was incorporated in Colorado in 1980 and re-incorporated in
Delaware in December 1995. In 1997, the Company built a 170,000 square foot
warehouse and headquarters facility known as the Ultrak Worldwide Support Center
located in the north Dallas suburb of Lewisville, Texas. Since January 1, 1998,
the Company's new address is 1301 Waters Ridge Drive, Lewisville, Texas 75057
and its telephone number is (972) 353-6500.

    Ultrak operates sales, distribution and manufacturing locations worldwide.
The Company has sales facilities in five U.S. cities, England, France, Germany,
Italy, Singapore, Australia, and South Africa, as well as active representation
through systems integrators in China and Brazil. The Company established a
headquarters facility in Antwerp, Belgium in 1999 to coordinate efforts among
its European operations. Customers are supported by twelve distribution centers
worldwide and manufacturing facilities located in the United States, Germany,
Australia and South Africa.

     Ultrak's products and systems include Enterprise Security Solutions and
Standard Products.

ENTERPRISE SECURITY SOLUTIONS

    As the technology leader in the security and surveillance markets, Ultrak
distinguishes itself from its competitors by providing Ultrak's Enterprise
Security Solutions ("ESS") for manufacturing facilities, airports, office
complexes, government agencies, hospitals, casinos, retail stores and other
organizations that increasingly need integrated electronic security and
surveillance systems that combine CCTV matrix switching, digital video
transmission, access control and alarm management and communications. These
products and systems also play an increasingly important role in traffic
management and public safety applications. 


    Included as part of ESS is the Company's DAVE (Duplex Analog Video Encoding)
Technology system. Ultrak's proprietary DAVE Technology(TM) System 2000 is based
on technology that provides complete and continuous video coverage using a large
array of cameras connected by a single loop of coaxial cable. The Company sells
these products and systems to distributors, dealers and systems integrators
through its own field sales personnel. ESS are customized and scaled to meet the
needs of all of the Company's customers regardless of the business size. It is
the Company's strategy to develop and acquire a comprehensive line of products
and integrated systems, build worldwide sales, service and support and provide
single-source solutions to its customers.

STANDARD PRODUCTS

    The following Ultrak standard products are sold into the professional
security and surveillance markets: cameras, lenses, domes and housings,
monitors, time-lapse and digital recorders, ruggedized cameras, monitors and
recorders for mobile video applications, digital processors (quads and
multiplexers), switchers and video management systems, video transmission
equipment, access control and facility management equipment. 



                                       2

    As CCTV becomes more affordable, small businesses and homeowners are
installing video observation systems to replace or supplement conventional alarm
systems. The consumer do-it-yourself security and surveillance market consists
of those applications in which end users purchase security and surveillance
systems and install the systems themselves in their small businesses or homes.
Video products sold into this market are characterized by affordability,
aesthetically appealing designs, ease of installation and maintenance and
mobility. The typical consumer do-it-yourself market CCTV system can be wired or
wireless and consists of a camera, a monitor, a switcher or quad processor and,
optionally, a video recorder. These products are available in either black and
white or color models. Consumer do-it-yourself CCTV products are sold through
mass merchandisers, wholesale clubs, electronic retail stores, office and
juvenile product superstores, as well as through retail catalogs.

    It is the Company's strategy to provide easy-to-install and easy-to-operate
video products and systems that are "feature rich" and affordably priced. The
Company is seeking to expand these product lines and introduce these, or similar
products and systems into the European market. These products are marketed under
the Exxis label at a certain wholesale club and under the Smart Choice and other
labels at various retail outlets. The Company sells these products through a
combination of its own sales force and manufacturer's representatives.

    The professional audio market includes public address equipment for office
complexes, hotels, airports and retail stores. In addition, this market includes
sound reinforcement systems for concert halls, churches, arenas and theaters.
Ultrak produces and markets products for professional audio and sound
reinforcement systems such as amplifiers, speakers, mixers, equalizers,
microphones, CD players, turntables and accessories. The Company sells these
systems through a direct sales force in France and other countries.

    Systems integrators, who assemble and sell equipment that incorporates video
to manufacturers that in turn use this equipment in their production processes,
typically purchase the Company's video products. Video cameras are used for
machine vision, computer imaging, robotics, microscopy, high-speed inspection
and high temperature furnace monitoring. Industrial video offers more precise
assessment than human visual inspection, and can measure image parameters which
are imperceptible to the human eye. These systems are also used to remotely
monitor automated assembly lines to ensure that each process on the assembly
line is accurately and completely performed. New industrial applications are
emerging as new equipment is developed and as production automation levels
increase.

    The Company's strategy with regard to the industrial video market is to
strengthen customer loyalty by backing-up advanced products with technical
expertise, a large variety of products and outstanding customer support. The
Company uses a combination of its own sales force and manufacturer's
representatives to sell these products to dealers and OEM accounts.

STRATEGY

    Ultrak's strategy is to develop and form relationships with its customers
and to provide them with the high quality and performance products and systems
they need and desire worldwide. Additionally, Ultrak's strategy is to provide
product improvement that is driven by customer requirements and to build
worldwide marketing capabilities to maximize market coverage and increase the
time it takes to get its products to market. The Company seeks to implement this
strategy through integration of products and security technology through ESS,
superior customer service, highly focused sales and marketing, and value
oriented products and systems, and expects to offer products, training and
service support over the Internet beginning in the second half of 1999.

ACQUISITIONS

    Acquisitions have contributed significantly to the Company's recent growth.
The Company believes that acquisitions are an effective way to obtain new CCTV
and related products and integrated systems, add experienced personnel, access
additional channels of distribution, expand into new geographic territories,
diversify its customer base and improve operating efficiencies through economies
of scale. As the security industry continues to consolidate, Ultrak will also
continue to search for growth through acquisitions. During 1996, the Company
completed three acquisitions and made a minority investment in one company
(subsequently sold in 1997). During 1997, the Company completed five
acquisitions, made a minority investment in one company and established an 80
percent-owned subsidiary in the Pacific Rim. During 1998-99, the Company
completed two acquisitions, acquired the minority interest in its Pacific Rim
subsidiary, sold one subsidiary to a third party and sold its minority
investment in one company.

MARKETING AND SALES

    Ultrak operates through highly focused selling groups organized according to
Ultrak's target markets. Ultrak's customer-focused structure allows for
individual attention to each target market, quick response to customer needs and
early identification of market requirements and new product ideas. Generally,
the Company reaches each target market through regional sales professionals
supported by telemarketing, catalogs, direct mail, magazine advertising and
industry trade shows.

    In 1998, the Company began implementing an internal reorganization of its
sales and marketing operations known as "Team Ultrak" which promotes a unified
network of sales professionals that are highly customer focused. Under this new
philosophy, product supply units, customer service units and technology units
have been unified to provide the Company's sales force with the means to better
serve customer needs. New sales teams have been established in strategic
geographic locations in the U.S. and along product lines. This team approach has
been identified as a means for integrating the sales aspects of various
operations acquired by the Company since 1995 and to encourage cross selling of
Ultrak products. Together with expansion of its sales force, the Company
anticipates that this reorganization effort and the Company's focus on providing
solution sales versus product sales will contribute substantially to the growth
in sales during 1999 and beyond.


                                       6

<PAGE>   7


    The Company uses various brand names for products sold through each of its
selling groups to maximize market penetration of each selling group, to minimize
market channel conflicts and to differentiate products by features, applications
and price. The Company's proprietary brand names, many of which are registered
trademarks, include Ultrak, Diamond Electronics, MAXPRO, VideV Systems,
Videosys, SAFEnet, Exxis, Smart Choice, BST, Industrial Vision Source and ESS.
Approximately 87% of the products sold by the Company in 1998 carried Ultrak
brand names, up from 85% in 1997 and 82% in 1996. The Company also sells brands
such as Panasonic(R), Mitsubishi(R), and Sony(R).

    Ultrak began actively pursuing the international market in 1995. In 1995 and
early 1996, Ultrak sold its products and systems in a number of countries
including Mexico, Brazil, Argentina, England, France, Germany, Denmark, India,
China, South Korea, Japan, The Philippines and Australia. Since the second
quarter of 1996, the Company acquired MAXPRO (Australia), Bisset (France), VideV
(Germany), Intervision (the UK), the Videosys Group (Italy), Philtech (South
Africa), and established a distribution company in Singapore, which has
substantially expanded the Company's presence internationally. See Note K to the
Company's Consolidated Financial Statements with respect to business segments.

PRODUCT DESIGN AND DEVELOPMENT

    In addition to traditional research and development activities, Ultrak's
engineering and product development staff worldwide works directly with its
customers to design new products and product enhancements, and coordinates with
its contract suppliers to manufacture certain Ultrak branded products. Ultrak
has developed a highly competent engineering staff to work with its selling and
marketing groups to develop new products and product line extensions that
promptly respond to customer needs on a worldwide basis. Consequently, Ultrak
believes that it can develop technologically superior products with
customer-desired performance capabilities that address new applications at lower
prices than competitive products. Increasingly, the Company's products are
computer-based and software-driven to support the integration of technologies
and functions into its customers' businesses.

    As of December 31, 1998, the Company had a full-time engineering staff of 79
employees compared to only four as of December 31, 1994. Because of the complex
and highly specialized requirements of Ultrak products and systems, these
employees are experienced in a wide range of engineering disciplines including
charged-coupled device ("CCD") technology, analog and digital signal processing,
CCTV management and switching technology, computer based access control
technology, facility management technology and high speed dome technology. In
addition, the Company's international contract manufacturers employ a number of
engineers who are primarily dedicated to research and development efforts of
products sold by Ultrak.

    In 1998, the Company introduced its DAVE Graphical User Interface (GUI).
Simple to operate and simple to learn, the DAVE GUI makes in-store loss
prevention personnel more efficient at locating, tracking and identifying
shoplifting suspects. For enterprise-wide applications, the DAVE GUI provides
touch screen control, intelligent video tracking and provides large retailers
with revolutionary capabilities for improved loss prevention. The Company also
introduced its computer-based SAFEnet-NT system, the Windows-NT(R) version of
Ultrak's flagship line of integrated access control and security systems. At the
core of the Company's ESS offerings, SAFEnet-NT provides a stable, flexible
platform for the integration of new functions and technologies. 1998 also marked
the start of a major development effort to redesign and streamline the SAFEnet
field hardware. A new distributed architecture has been developed and initial
hardware prototyped and demonstrated.

PRODUCTS AND SYSTEMS

    The Company's motto, "Quality Products That Make a Difference," encapsulates
the Company's strategy of developing technologically advanced and cost-effective
products and systems that are unique and solve customers' specific needs or
problems. Through in-house product development, and with the product lines the
Company has obtained through acquisitions, Ultrak offers a broad line of Ultrak
branded products and systems. The Company's brand names include Ultrak, Diamond
Electronics, MAXPRO, VideV Systems, Videosys, SAFEnet, Exxis, Smart Choice, BST,
Industrial Vision Source and ESS. Approximately 87% of the products sold by the
Company in 1998 carried Ultrak brand names. The Company continues to offer
brands such as Panasonic, Mitsubishi, Dedicated Micros and Sony.

    The Company's products and systems include a broad line of cameras, lenses,
high-speed dome and housings, monitors, time-lapse and digital recorders,
digital processors, switchers and video management systems, the DAVE
Technology(TM) system, video transmission equipment access control and facility
management equipment, control matrix switching systems and accessories,
professional audio products, video printers, patient education systems, video
otoscopes and furnace viewing products.

OPERATIONS

    A critical element of the Company's operations is its management information
systems. In early 1997, the Company selected SAP, a leading enterprise software
system, for its domestic information needs. As of February 1998, the Company had
successfully completed the SAP conversion process at its Lewisville, Texas
Worldwide Support Center, as well as four other domestic facilities. By mid
2000, SAP will unite Ultrak and all of its domestic subsidiaries with a common
inventory, sales and database management system. Via laptop computers, the
Ultrak domestic sales team can easily communicate with the host system from any
remote location. Internationally, the Company has selected "Exact", a
multilingual, multicurrency and Euro compliant software for its European
information needs. By the end of 1999, all of the Companies European operations
will be live on the "Exact" software and will be linked together with a common
inventory sales and financial system.

    Ultrak believes that one of the keys to its success is its commitment to be
responsive and provide excellent service to its customers. Domestic orders are
entered into the Company's Lewisville, Texas-based SAP computer system either
directly by the customer through electronic data interchange, by traveling sales
representatives using laptop computers or by in-house sales personnel. After the
computer system performs an automated check of the customer's account and credit
limit, the order is released to be shipped from available inventory at one of
the six domestic stocking warehouse locations. Because the Company maintains
domestically a relatively large inventory of products, it ships most items
within 24 hours of receipt of the order. The Company's domestic stocking
warehouse locations are Lewisville (Dallas), Texas; Broomfield (Denver),
Colorado; Rancho Cucamonga (Ontario), California; San Diego, California; Ft.
Lauderdale, Florida and Carroll (Columbus), Ohio. Approximately 71% of all
domestic shipments are made from the Lewisville, Texas warehouse.

    With respect to Ultrak branded products produced by contract manufacturers,
most of these products are made exclusively for the Company or there are limited
or no competitive sales of such products in the areas served by the Company. The
Company believes that its relationships with its contract suppliers are good. In
most of these relationships, the Company believes that the relationship is as
important to the supplier as it is to the Company. Thus, the Company believes
that there is a strong, mutually advantageous basis for the trading relationship
to continue and grow. See Note G to the Company's Consolidated Financial
Statements with regard to Major Customers and Suppliers.

    Delivery times for products manufactured abroad vary from one week to two
months, depending on the mode of transportation. Because of foreign production
lead times, the Company normally makes purchase commitments to these foreign
suppliers three to six months in advance of shipment. Therefore, management
believes it is necessary for the Company to commit to and carry larger levels of
inventory than would be necessary if it manufactured all of its products
domestically. Given order lead times, accurate inventory forecasting is
critical.

    Substantially all of the Company's purchases from its non-affiliated
contract manufacturers are made in United States Dollars with the remaining
purchases made in Japanese Yen, Australian Dollars, French Francs, German
Deutschmarks, Italian Lira, the South African Rand and English Pounds. To date,
the Company's purchases have not been materially adversely affected by
fluctuations in the valuation of any international currency. It is expected that
the Company will continue to purchase the vast majority of its products in
United States Dollars.

    To ensure complete customer service and satisfaction, Ultrak offers
third-party leasing services and after-sale service for all equipment sold by
the Company.

    Ultrak offers a limited warranty on all products shipped. The Company
generally warrants that its products will conform to Ultrak's published
specifications and be free from defects in materials and workmanship.

    When goods are delivered to Ultrak, a random sampling quality assurance
procedure is performed. Selected units are verified for functionality, proper
packaging, labeling and documentation. The Company's primary contract
manufacturer as well as VideV in Germany are ISO9001 certified. The quality
assurance procedures in the Company's Ohio plant and California facility comply
with ISO9001 specifications.

BACKLOG

    As of December 31, 1998 and 1997, the Company had approximately $13.1
million and $12.3 million respectively, in order backlog which it considered to
be firm. Because purchase orders are subject to cancellation or delay by
customers with limited or no penalty, the Company's backlog is not necessarily
indicative of future revenues or earnings. Since the Company ships most products


                                       8

<PAGE>   9

within 24 hours of receipt of the order, the Company believes that backlog is
not a significant measurement of the Company's financial position.

INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY

    As part of its ongoing engineering and development activities, Ultrak seeks
patent protection on inventions covering new products and improvements when
appropriate. Ultrak currently holds a number of United States patents and has a
number of pending patent applications. Although the Company's patents have
value, the Company believes that the success of its business depends more on
innovation, sales efforts, technical expertise and knowledge of its personnel
and other factors. The Company also relies upon trade secret protection for its
confidential and proprietary information. Many of the Company's brands are
registered trademarks owned by the Company.

COMPETITION

    The Company faces substantial competition in each of its markets.
Significant competitive factors in the Company's markets include price, quality
and product performance, breadth of product line and customer service and
support. Some of the Company's existing and potential competitors have
substantially greater financial, manufacturing, marketing and other resources
than the Company. To compete successfully, the Company must continue to make
substantial investments in its engineering and development, marketing, sales,
customer service and support activities. There can be no assurance that
competitors will not develop products that offer price or performance features
superior the Company's products.

    The Company considers its major competitors to be the CCTV and access
control operations of Sensormatic Electronics Corporation, Burle (part of
Philips Communication & Security Systems, Inc.), Panasonic, Pelco, Vicon
Industries, Inc. and Cassi Rusco.

EMPLOYEES

    As of December 31, 1998, the Company had 710 full-time employees employed
worldwide at 15 primary locations and 12 field sales offices, of which 266 were
sales and sales support personnel, 169 were warehouse/manufacturing personnel,
79 were technical/service personnel, 79 were engineering and product development
personnel and 117 were administrative and managerial personnel.

    The Company's future success will depend in large part upon its ability to
attract and retain highly skilled technical, managerial, financial and marketing
personnel, in a market where such people are in demand. No employee is
represented by a union or covered by a collective bargaining agreement and the
Company has not experienced a work stoppage or strike. The Company considers its
employee relations to be good.

    The Company has a formal employee partnership philosophy that the Company
believes contributes significantly to its success. During periodic "partners'
meetings," all employee-partners are informed about the state of the Company and
key events that took place during the preceding months and given the opportunity
to ask questions, make suggestions and comment.

    The Company's employee partnership philosophy statement is as follows:

    Ultrak's partnership philosophy is at the core of our business and extends
to our customers, suppliers and employee-partners. Each employee-partner pitches
in to get the job done, is encouraged to grow both professionally and
personally, is recognized for individual achievement, and works in a cheerful
and friendly team environment. There is no room for prima donnas or hierarchies.
All employee-partners share in the Company's profits. Ultrak extends its
partnership philosophy to its suppliers and customers as well.

ITEM 2.  PROPERTIES

    The Company moved to its new Worldwide Support Center in January 1998. The
facility is comprised of approximately 170,000 square feet of leased office and
warehouse space located on 14 acres of land in Lewisville, Texas, pursuant to a
lease with an initial term expiring in April 2003. There is adequate available
space on the premises for expansion of the Worldwide Support Center if such
expansion is deemed necessary. At the conclusion of the initial lease term, the
Company has an option to acquire the facility. The Company also leases
additional office/distribution warehouse space in Fort Lauderdale, Florida;
Westminster, Colorado; Las Vegas, Nevada; San Diego, California; Paris, France;
Preston (Manchester), England; Antwerp, Belgium; San Vendemiano (Venice), Italy;
Dusseldorf, Germany; Sydney, Australia; Kengray, South Africa and Singapore.

    The Company owns its 72,000 square foot manufacturing facility in Carroll
(Columbus), Ohio and leases its manufacturing facilities in Rancho Cucamonga,
California and Perth, Western Australia. The Company believes that its
manufacturing facilities are adequate to meet the Company's present and
anticipated manufacturing needs for products that it currently manufactures.

ITEM 3.  LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

    The Company is not aware of any pending or threatened legal proceedings to
which the Company is or may be a party, which may have a materially adverse
impact on the Company. The Company knows of no legal proceedings pending or
threatened or judgments entered against any director or officer of the Company.

ITEM 4.  SUBMISSION OF MATTERS TO A VOTE OF SECURITY HOLDERS

during the fourth quarter of 1998.

ITEM 7. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS
        OF OPERATIONS

OVERVIEW

    The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Ultrak and its
ten consolidated subsidiaries. The Company is further organized in the U.S. into
separate selling divisions; all supported by common administrative functions
such as credit, accounting, payroll, purchasing, warehousing, training and
computer support services. All significant intercompany balances and
transactions among subsidiaries and divisions have been eliminated in
consolidation.

    The Company has experienced substantial growth in recent years. Net sales
have grown from $1.8 million in 1987 to $195.2 million in 1998. Increases in net
sales have come from increased volume of sales of existing products and systems
to all of the markets served by the Company, introduction and sales of new
products and systems, creation of new selling groups to focus on new markets and
acquisitions of businesses in the security and surveillance and access control
industries.

    During 1995, the Company completed three acquisitions. The largest company
acquired was Diamond, a manufacturer of CCTV security and surveillance systems
used by large retailers, of traffic management systems used by municipalities
and of industrial systems used in hazardous settings. The transaction was
accounted for as a purchase and the operations have been included in the
Company's financial statements since July 1, 1995.

    In 1996, the Company completed three international acquisitions and made a
minority investment in a fourth company. Effective July 1, 1996, Ultrak acquired
approximately 75% of the outstanding stock of MAXPRO, a manufacturer of large
scale CCTV switching systems based in Perth, Western Australia. On February 17,
1997, the Company acquired the remainder of the outstanding stock of MAXPRO. On
September 6, 1996, Ultrak acquired and subsequently sold in September 1997 its
interest in approximately 24% of the outstanding stock of Lenel, a domestic
security access control software company. Effective October 1, 1996, Ultrak
acquired all of the outstanding share capital of Bisset, a distributor of CCTV
and professional audio products based in Paris, France. Effective December 1,
1996, Ultrak acquired all of the outstanding stock of VideV, a distributor and
manufacturer of CCTV products based in Dusseldorf, Germany. All of these
transactions were accounted for as purchases and the operations have been
included in the Company's financial statements since the dates of acquisition.

    In 1997, the Company completed five acquisitions and made a minority
investment in a sixth company. Effective February 1, 1997, Ultrak acquired all
of the outstanding stock of MDI, a manufacturer of security and access control
systems based in Rancho Cucamonga, California. Effective March 1, 1997, the
Company acquired all of the outstanding stock of Intervision, a distributor of
CCTV products and systems based in England. Effective April 1, 1997, Ultrak
acquired all of the outstanding stock of the Videosys Group, a distributor of
CCTV and security products and systems based in Italy. Also effective April 1,
1997, the Company acquired all of the outstanding stock of Veravision, a
manufacturer of intraoral dental camera products based in San Clemente,
California. Effective October 1, 1997, the Company acquired all of the
outstanding stock of Philtech, a manufacturer and distributor of CCTV switching
and control equipment based in South Africa. Effective November 1997, the
Company established an 80% owned company in Singapore. All of these transactions
were accounted for as purchases and the operations have been included in the
Company's financial statements since the dates of acquisition.

    In 1998, the Company made one acquisition and acquired the 20% minority
interest in its Singapore operation. As of February 1, 1998, the Company
acquired the net assets of Norbain-France, a distributor of CCTV products based
in Paris, France. Effective August 1, 1998, the Company sold its 90% owned
subsidiary, DVD, to a third party.

    In March 1999, the Company acquired all of the outstanding stock of ABM, a
company that develops and sells computer software for the alarm monitoring
security industry.

    Product sales are recorded when goods are shipped to the customer. Most of
the Company's sales are made to its domestic customers on Net 30 or Net 60 day
credit terms after a credit review has been performed to establish
creditworthiness and to determine an appropriate credit line. The Company's
international sales are made under varying terms depending upon the
creditworthiness of the customer, and include the use of letters of credit,
payment in advance of shipment or open trade terms. Sales to one customer
accounted for approximately 17% of total sales during 1998 and 12% of total
sales during 1996 and 1997.


                                       13

<PAGE>   14

    Cost of sales for most of the Company's products includes the cost of the
product shipped plus freight, customs and other costs associated with delivery
from foreign contract manufacturers or from domestic suppliers. Cost of sales
for products manufactured by Ultrak include material, direct labor and overhead
as well as an allocated portion of indirect overhead.

    Marketing and sales expenses are costs related to the Company's sales
efforts, which include costs incurred by both direct employees of the Company
and independent sales representatives. Marketing and sales expenses consist
primarily of salaries, commissions and related benefits, depreciation,
telephone, advertising, warranty, printing, product literature, sales promotion
and travel-related costs.

    General and administrative expenses include costs of all corporate and
general administrative functions that support the existing selling divisions as
well as provides the infrastructure for future growth. General and
administrative expenses consist primarily of salaries and related benefits of
executive, administrative, operations and engineering, research and development
personnel, legal, audit and other professional fees, supplies, other engineering
costs and travel-related costs. During 1996, 1997 and 1998 the Company added new
corporate management in several areas to help facilitate and manage its growth.

    Engineering, research and product development costs are included in general
and administrative expenses and consist primarily of salaries, overhead and
material costs associated with the development of new products offered by the
Company. All such R&D costs have been expensed when incurred. During the year
ended December 31, 1998, the Company capitalized approximately $1.0 million in
software development costs in accordance with FASB #86 primarily pertaining to
its Safenet NT software and its ESS software development projects. The Company's
investment in engineering, research and software developments increased
significantly during 1996, and have continued to increase on an absolute basis
in 1997 and 1998.

    The Company's consolidated financial statements are denominated in dollars
and, accordingly, changes in the exchange rate between the Company's
subsidiaries' local currencies and the dollar will affect the conversion of such
subsidiaries' financial results into dollars for purposes of reporting the
Company's consolidated financial results. Translation adjustments are reported
as a separate component of stockholders' equity.

    A substantial portion of the Company's purchases and sales are derived from
operations outside the United States. Since the revenues and expenses of the
Company's foreign operations are generally denominated in local currency,
exchange rate fluctuations between local currencies and the dollar subject the
Company to currency exchange risks with respect to the results of its foreign
operations. Therefore, the Company is subject to these risks to the extent that
it is unable to denominate its purchases or sales in dollars or otherwise shift
to its customers or suppliers the effects of currency exchange rate
fluctuations. Such fluctuations in exchange rates could have a material adverse
effect on the Company's results of operations. The Company did not have foreign
exchange forward or currency option contracts outstanding at December 31, 1998.

</TABLE>


YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 1998 COMPARED WITH YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 1997

    For the year ended December 31, 1998, net sales were $195.2 million, an
increase of $20.3 million (12%) over 1997. This increase was due to the effect
of the acquisitions during 1997, sales of new products introduced during late
1997 and 1998 and increased volume of sales of existing CCTV products to most of
the markets served by the Company.

    Cost of sales were $131.7 million for 1998, an increase of $10.8 million
(9%) over 1997. Gross profit margins increased to 32.6% in 1998 from 30.9% in
1997. This increase was due to the continued increased sales levels of
Ultrak-branded products, cost reductions realized on certain Ultrak-branded
products and somewhat higher margins earned on ESS and other new products
introduced during late 1997 and 1998.

    Marketing and sales expenses were $30.9 million for 1998, an increase of
$4.2 million (16%) over 1997. Marketing and sales expenses for 1998 were 15.8%
of net sales, up from 15.3% in 1997. This increase was due to the effect of
hiring additional sales, sales support and marketing personnel in conjunction
with new product introductions and resulting sales activities, as well as the
increased travel, printing, product literature, advertising and promotion costs
associated with the introduction of new products.

    General and administrative expenses were $19.9 million for 1998, an increase
of $.8 million (4%) over 1997. General and administrative expenses for 1998 were
10.2% of net sales, down from 10.9% of net sales in 1997. This decrease was a
result of less hiring and selective employee terminations later in the year and
the Company's efforts to reduce its general and administrative costs as a
percentage of sales. Depreciation and amortization expenses were $4.7 million
for 1997, an increase of $.7 million (18%) over 1997. Depreciation and
amortization expenses for 1998 were 2.4% of net sales, slightly up from 2.3% of
net sales in 1997.

    Other income was approximately $.5 million for 1998, a decrease of $2.5
million from 1997. This decrease was due to the Company's shift during mid 1997
to invest excess funds in marketable equity securities (including the investment
in Detection Systems, Inc.) instead of interest bearing investments, the use of
cash to fund the Company's stock repurchase program and the increase in expense
on bank borrowings during 1998.

YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 1997 COMPARED WITH YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 1996

    For the year ended December 31, 1997, net sales were $174.9 million, an
increase of $48.3 million (38%) over 1996. This increase was due to the effect
of new acquisitions during 1996 and 1997, sales of new products introduced
during late 1996 and 1997 and increased volume of sales of existing CCTV
products to most of the markets served by the Company.

    Cost of sales were $120.9 million for 1997, an increase of $32.1 million
(36%) over 1996, including approximately $1.0 million in provisions for excess
and obsolete inventory. Gross profit margins increased to 30.9% (to 31.5%
excluding the special provisions for excess and obsolete inventory) in 1996 from
29.9% in 1996. This increase was due to the continued increased sales levels of
Ultrak-branded products, cost reductions realized on certain Ultrak-branded
products, the effect of certain acquisitions (the manufactured products of which
carry higher gross profit margins than other products sold by the Company) and
somewhat higher margins earned on new products introduced during late 1996 and
1997.

    Marketing and sales expenses were $26.7 million for 1997, an increase of
$11.1 million (72%) over 1996. Marketing and sales expenses for 1997 were 15.3%
of net sales, up from 12.3% in 1996. This increase was due to the effect of
acquisitions during late 1996 and 1997 and the effect in 1997 of hiring
additional sales, sales support and marketing personnel in conjunction with new
product introductions and resulting sales activities, as well as the increased
travel, printing, product literature, advertising and promotion costs associated
with the introduction of new products.

    General and administrative expenses were $19.1 million for 1997, an increase
of $10.2 million (116%) over 1996, including $1.0 million in increases in
reserves for accounts receivable and other assets. General and administrative
expenses for 1997 were 10.9% (10.3% excluding the special reserves for accounts
receivable and other assets) of net sales, up from 7.0% of net sales in 1996.
This increase was a result of (i) the acquisitions in late 1996 and 1997, which
maintain certain separate administrative functions and have greater research and
development costs, as a percentage of net sales, than Ultrak's other operations
and (ii) the hiring of additional research and development and administrative
staff to support the anticipated growth in sales.

    Depreciation and amortization expenses were $4.0 million for 1997, an
increase of $2.5 million (176%) over 1996. Depreciation and amortization
expenses for 1997 were 2.3% of net sales, up from 1.1% of net sales in 1996.
This increase was a result of substantially increased goodwill amortization
related to the acquisitions in late 1996 and 1997 and increased property and
equipment.

    Special charges were $3.1 million for 1997, representing 1.8% of net sales
for 1997. Special charges consisted of (i) the write-off of computer hardware
and software made obsolete by the implementation of new software, (ii) the cost
of moving to a new headquarters building including the write-off of leasehold
improvements and other abandonment costs and (iii) implementation costs related
to new software through December 1997.

    Other income was approximately $3.0 million for 1997, an increase of $3.2
million from 1996. This increase was due primarily to interest income and gain
on sale of investments, offset partially by $697,055 in nonrecurring costs of a
terminated merger.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

    The Company had a net decrease in cash and cash equivalents for 1998 of
approximately $9.6 million. Net cash used in operating activities for the year
was approximately $695,000, primarily consisting of increases in accounts and
notes receivable, inventories and prepaid expenses and other current assets;
decreases in accounts payable offset partially by decreases in advances for
inventory purchases; and, increases in accrued and other current liabilities.
Net cash used in investing activities was approximately $25.7 million consisting
of cash payments for purchases of property and equipment, primarily related to
the domestic SAP computer implementation and increases in purchases of
investments, offset partially by proceeds from sale of a discontinued operation.
Cash provided by financing activities was approximately $13.8 million consisting
primarily of borrowings on its revolving line of credit, offset by the purchase
of approximately $ 27.6 million in treasury stock and the payment of dividends
on the Series A Preferred Stock.

    On February 16, 1999, the Company entered into a new three-year credit
facility with two banks. The credit facility provides for combined borrowings up
to $50.0 million, comprised of a $20.0 million term facility and a $30.0 million
revolving line of credit facility. Principal payments on the $20.0 million term
facility in the quarterly amount of $833,333 commence in April 2000. Interest is
payable quarterly at prime or LIBOR plus a range of .75% to 1.25%, depending on
the leverage ratio, as defined, for the quarter. The combined credit facility
contains certain restrictive financial and operational covenants and conditions,
including a 


                                       16

<PAGE>   17

maximum leverage ratio, a debt service ratio and minimum net worth amounts. The
Company pays a quarterly unused fee of .125% to .25%, depending on the leverage
ratio for the quarter.

As of December 31, 1998, the Company was in violation of a certain financial
covenant of it's previous $40.0 million credit facility. The Company obtained a
waiver from the previous bank on January 15, 1999 and the amount outstanding
with the previous bank was paid in full with borrowings from the new $50.0
million credit facility on February 17, 1999.

    The Company believes that internally generated funds, available borrowings
under the new credit facility and current amounts of cash will be sufficient to
meet its presently anticipated needs for working capital, capital expenditures
and acquisitions, if any, for at least the next 12 months.

DERIVATIVE FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

    During 1997, the Company sold equity put options covering 2.6 million
shares. As of December 31, 1998, one equity put option remained outstanding and
the Company has recorded on the balance sheet its potential repurchase
obligation related to the put option totaling $1.6 million at its exercise price
of $12.51 per share. The single remaining put option was exercised on January
13, 1999 with the Company purchasing 125,000 shares of its Common Stock.

YEAR 2000 COSTS

    The Company is aware of certain issues associated with the programming code
in certain of its existing computer hardware and software systems as the
millennium (Year 2000) approaches. The Company has designed and tested the most
current versions of its products to be year 2000 compliant. However, there can
be no assurances that the Company will not experience serious unanticipated
negative consequences and/or material costs caused by undetected errors or
defects in the technology used in the Company's products that may result in
material costs to the Company.

    The Year 2000 issue is pervasive and complex, as virtually every computer
operation in certain of its international subsidiaries could be affected in some
way by the rollover of the two-digit year value to "00". The issue is whether
systems will properly recognize date sensitive information when the year changes
to 2000. Systems that do not properly recognize such information could generate
erroneous data or cause complete system failures. With respect to its internal
systems, the Company is in the process of implementing a multi-lingual and
multi-currency enterprise software at all of Ultrak's facilities worldwide. As
of August 1998, the Company had successfully completed the conversion process to
SAP at its Worldwide Service and Support Center, as well as four other domestic
facilities. SAP's software and all associated third party applications are
represented to be Year 2000 compliant. The Company's Ohio manufacturing facility
will not be converted to SAP in 1999, but its existing business systems will be
upgraded to a Year 2000 compliant version by December 1999. The Company began
its European implementation in early March 1999 using "Exact" software, a
European multilingual, multi-currency Y2K and Euro compliant software. For all
European systems that are currently not Year 2000 compliant, the Company will
address and convert those computer systems first in its implementation plan
which should be completed by December 1999. During the years ended December 31,
1998 and 1997, the Company incurred approximately $6.3 million and $1.6 million
respectively related to its implementation of SAP in the U.S. It is expected
that the remaining phases of the "Exact" implementation will additionally cost
approximately $800,000, which will be incurred primarily in 1999. Such costs are
expected to be capitalized and amortized over the estimated useful life of the
software.

    Based upon the expected timely completion of its conversion to SAP and its
discussions with its primary suppliers and vendors, the Company does not believe
that the Year 2000 issues will have a material impact on the financial position,
results of operations or cash flows of the Company. However, there can be no
assurances that the Company will not experience serious unanticipated negative
consequences and/or material costs caused by undetected errors or defects in the
technology used in the Company's internal systems, which are composed of third
party software, third party hardware that contains embedded software and the
Company's own software products.

INFLATION

    During the years ended December 31, 1998, 1997 and 1996, the cost of
property and equipment, lease expense and salaries and wages increased modestly.
The increases have not had a material impact on the Company's results of
operations during any of the periods.

ITEM 7A. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

    The following discussion about the Company's market risk includes
"forward-looking statements" that involve risks and uncertainties. Actual
results could differ materially from those projected in the forward-looking
statements. The Company does not use derivative financial instruments for
speculative or trading purposes. The Company is exposed to market risk from
changes in foreign currency exchange rates, interest rates, and investment
prices, which could affect its future results of operations and financial
condition. The Company manages its exposure to these risks through its regular
operating and financing activities.

Foreign exchange

    The Company has foreign-based operations, primarily in Western Europe, which
accounted for 34% of 1998 net sales. The Company issues intercompany loans to
its foreign subsidiaries denominated in U.S. dollars, exposing the foreign
subsidiaries to the effect of changes in spot exchange rates of their local
currency relative to the U.S. dollar. In addition, many of the foreign-based
operations make sales to customers denominated in different currencies, which
carry minimal market risk because the transactions normally settle quickly. The
Company does not regularly use forward-exchange contracts to hedge these
exposures. Based on the Company's foreign currency exchange rate exposure for
intercompany borrowings of approximately $15.4 million at December 31, 1998, a
10% adverse change in currency rates would create an additional comprehensive
loss of approximately $1.5 million.

Interest rates

    The Company's credit arrangements expose it to fluctuations in interest
rates. At December 31, 1998, the Company had $37.5 million outstanding under its
revolving line of credit, which provided for interest to be paid quarterly based
on a variable rate. Thus, interest rate changes would result in a change in the
amount of interest to be paid each quarter. Based upon the interest rates and
borrowings at December 31, 1998, a 10% increase in interest rates would not
materially affect the Company's financial position, annual results of
operations, or cash flows.

Investments

    The Company is exposed to fluctuations in the stock prices of investment in
its available for sale portfolio. Market fluctuations would affect the carrying
value of investments. Based upon the holdings at December 31, 1998, a 10%
decrease in market value would not materially affect the Company's financial
position, annual results of operations, or cash flows.

ITEM 8. FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AND SUPPLEMENTARY DATA

    The consolidated financial statements of the Company and its subsidiaries
that are required by this Item 8 are listed in Part IV under Item 14(a) of this

               REPORT OF INDEPENDENT CERTIFIED PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS




Board of Directors
Ultrak, Inc.


We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Ultrak, Inc. and
Subsidiaries as of December 31, 1998 and 1997, and the related consolidated
statements of income, stockholders' equity, and cash flows for each of the three
years in the period ended December 31, 1998. 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 audit 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 consolidated financial position of Ultrak, Inc. and
Subsidiaries as of December 31, 1998 and 1997, and the consolidated results of
their operations and their consolidated cash flows for each of the three years
in the period ended December 31, 1998, in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principles.

    transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

    Cash and Cash Equivalents

    The Company considers all highly liquid investments with original maturities
    of three months or less to be cash equivalents.

    Restricted Cash

    Restricted cash represents collateral for outstanding equity put options.

    Investments

    The Company accounts for its investments using Statement of Financial
    Accounting Standards No. 115, "Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt
    and Equity Securities." Securities available for sale are reported at fair
    value, with unrealized gains and losses, net of tax, excluded from earnings
    and reported as a separate component or stockholders' equity. Realized gains

         POLICIES - Continued

    Property, Plant and Equipment and Depreciation

    Property, plant and equipment are carried at cost. The provision for
    depreciation is computed using the straight-line method over the estimated
    useful lives of the assets.

    Income Per Share

    The Company computes basic income per share based on the weighted average
    number of common shares outstanding. Diluted income per share is computed
    based on the weighted average number of shares outstanding, plus the number
    of additional common shares that would have been outstanding if dilutive
    potential common shares had been issued.

    Goodwill and Amortization

    Goodwill resulting from acquisitions is being amortized using the
    straight-line method over periods ranging from twenty to forty years.

    Accounting for Impairment of Long-Lived Assets

    The Company evaluates long-lived assets and intangibles held and used for
    impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the
    carrying amounts may not be recoverable. Impairment is recognized when the
    undiscounted cash flows estimated to be generated by those assets are less
    than the carrying amounts of such assets.

    Fair Value of Financial Instruments

    The Company's financial instruments consist of cash and cash equivalents,
    notes receivable, debt and equity put options for which the fair value
    approximates the carrying value.

    Stock-Based Compensation

    The Company accounts for stock-based compensation to employees using the
    intrinsic value method. Accordingly, compensation cost for stock options is
    measured as the excess, if any, of the quoted market price of the Company's
    stock at the date of the grant over the amount an employee must pay to
    acquire the stock.

    Software Development Costs

    The Company capitalizes software development costs incurred from the time
    technological feasibility of the software is established until the software
    is ready for use in its products. Research and development costs related to
    software development are expensed as incurred. The capitalized costs relate
    to software which will become an integral part of the Company's revenue
    producing products and is amortized in relation to expected revenues from
    the product or a maximum of five years, whichever is greater. The carrying
    value of software development costs is regularly reviewed by the Company,
    and a loss is recognized when the net realizable value by product falls
    below the unamortized cost.

    Currency Translation

    Translation adjustments to the financial statements of foreign subsidiaries
    are reflected in the consolidated financial statements as a component of
    other comprehensive income.

    Use of Estimates

    In preparing financial statements in conformity with generally accepted
    accounting principles, management is required 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 revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual
    results could differ from those estimates.

    Reclassifications

    Certain reclassifications have been made to prior years financial statements
    to conform with the 1998 presentation.

    Derivative Financial Instruments

    Equity put options on common stock represent the number of options sold at
    their respective strike price. Proceeds from the sale of equity put options
    on common stock are accounted for as additional paid-in capital.

    previous line of credit. The Company was in violation of a certain financial
    covenants and obtained a waiver on January 15, 1999. Amounts outstanding
    were paid in full with proceeds from the new $50.0 million credit facility
    on February 17, 1999. Interest on the line of credit at December 31, 1998
    was payable monthly at the bank's LIBOR rate (5.0% at December 31, 1998)
    plus 3%.


NOTE E - STOCKHOLDERS' EQUITY

    The Series A preferred stock earns dividends at the rate of 12% per annum,
    payable quarterly. All dividends accrue whether or not such dividends have
    been declared and whether or not there are profits, surplus, or other funds
    of the Company legally available for payment.

    The Company may at any time redeem all or any portion of the Series A
    Preferred Stock then outstanding at the liquidation value of $5.00 per share
    plus unpaid dividends. The holder of the Series A Preferred Stock may
    convert any or all of the 195,351 preferred shares into shares of the
    Company's common stock at any time at a conversion rate equal to 2.08 shares
    of common stock per preferred share or a total of 406,981 shares of common
    stock.

    Holders of Series A preferred stock are entitled to vote on all matters
    submitted to a vote of stockholders. Each Series A preferred share is
    entitled to voting rights equal to 16.667 shares of common stock.

    During 1997 and 1998, the Company repurchased 397,850 and 2,555,100 shares,
    respectively, of its common stock. As part of its share repurchase program,
    during 1997 the Company sold equity put options covering 2,620,000 shares
    for $4,484,310. As of December 31, 1998, 125,000 options remained
    outstanding and the Company's potential repurchase obligation under these
    options totaled approximately $1.6 million at an exercise price of $12.51
    per share. The options were exercised on January 13, 1999 and the Company
    repurchased the shares.

NOTE F - STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION

    The Company's 1988 Nonqualified Stock Option Plan (the "1988 Plan") provided
    for grants of options for up to 1,000,000 restricted shares and the 1997
    Incentive Stock Option Plan (the "1997 Plan") provides for grants of options
    for up to 400,000 shares. Shares under the 1997 Plan are awarded based upon
    the Company achieving one or more definitive performance measurements for a
    fiscal year, including minimum levels of economic value added, minimum
    levels of market value added or attainment of the financial budget. The 1997
    Plan is a formula-based plan administered by the Compensation Committee of
    the Board of Directors. Option grants under the 1997 Plan are limited to 1%
    of the outstanding common stock of the Company. At December 31, 1998,
    181,712 and 261,359 shares were available for grant under the 1988 Plan and
    the 1997 Plan, respectively.

    Option exercise prices are equal to the market price at the date of grant.
    Shares under grant generally become exercisable in five equal annual
    installments beginning one year after the date of grant, and expire after
    ten years.

    If the Company recognized compensation expense as permitted under Statement
    of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123, based upon the fair value at the
    grant date for options granted after 1994 under the 1988 Plan and 1997 Plan,
    the Company's net income from continuing operations and income per share
    would be reduced to the pro forma amounts indicated as follows:

    The fair value of these options was estimated at the date of grant using the
    Black-Scholes option pricing model with the following weighted-average
    assumptions: expected volatility of 50 to 70 percent; risk-free interest
    rates of 5.5 percent; no dividend yield; and expected lives of seven years.

    The pro forma amounts presented are not representative of the amounts that
    will be disclosed in the future because they do not take into effect pro
    forma expense related to grants before 1995.

    One customer accounted for more than 10% of revenue in each of the three
    years ended December 31, 1998. Sales to that customer were:

</TABLE>

    Loss of this customer would have a material adverse effect on the operations
    of the Company.

    The Company purchased in excess of 25% of its products from one contract
    manufacturer in each of the three years in the period ended December 31,
    1998. Although there are a limited number of manufacturers of the Company's
    products, management believes there are suppliers who could provide similar
    products on comparable terms. A change in suppliers could cause a delay in
    and a possible loss of sales.


NOTE H - COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

    $3,473,563. All common stocks were purchased in 1998 at a cost of
    $3,733,978. The Company has classified these securities as available for

NOTE K - SEGMENT DISCLOSURE AND FOREIGN OPERATIONS

    Effective March 31, 1998, the Company adopted SFAS No. 131, Disclosures
    about Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information which changes the
    way the company reports information about its operating segments.

    The Company has three business segments: United States-Professional Security
    Group (US-PSG), United States-Diversified Group (US-DSG), and
    International-Professional Security Group (International-PSG). The segments
    are differentiated by the customers serviced as follows:

       US-PSG

       This segment consists of sales in the United States to professional
       security dealers, distributors, installers and certain large end users of
       professional security products.

       US-DSG

       This segment sells video and security products to industrial markets and
       consumers in the United States.

       International-PSG

       This segment consists of sales to professional security dealers,
       distributors, installers and certain large end users of professional
       security products outside the United States.

       The Company's underlying accounting records are maintained on a legal
       entity basis for government and public reporting requirements. Segment
       disclosures are on a performance basis consistent with internal
       management reporting. The Company evaluates performance based on earnings
       from continuing operations before income taxes and other income and
       expense. The Corporate column includes corporate overhead related items.
       The accounting policies of the segments are the same as those described
       in the summary of significant accounting policies (Note A).

     For 1998, 1997 and 1996, 367,919, 286,655, and 10,000 stock options were
     outstanding, respectively, but not included in the computation of diluted
     income per share because the options exercise price was greater than the
     average market price of the common shares and, therefore, the effect would
     have been antidilutive.
