NOTE C - ACQUISITIONS

In May 2000, the Company purchased the common stock of Lexel Imaging Systems,
Inc. ("Lexel") and in June 2000 the Company purchased certain assets and assumed
certain liabilities of the electro optical division of Imaging and Sensing
Technology ("IST"). The Company paid $3,000,000 and $1,598,000 for Lexel and
IST, respectively. The purchase price for Lexel was financed by short-term,
unsecured debt, guaranteed by an officer of the Corporation with a stated
interest rate of LIBOR plus 2%. The IST purchase price was financed by a demand
note payable with an officer of the Corporation with a stated interest rate of
prime plus 1%. Both of these notes were entered into with the intent to be
consolidated into one facility at the time of the Primary line of credit
refinancing.

                  NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                                  (UNAUDITED)

In September 2000, the Company acquired, through its Lexel subsidiary, the
cathode ray tube manufacturing operations of Raytheon Company. The operations
are being consolidated into the Lexel facility based in Lexington, KY. The
Company paid cash consideration from its Primary Line in the amount of $560,000.
The purchase price includes a four year declining royalty payment based on net
revenues collected during that period.

All of the above transactions have been accounted for under the purchase method
of accounting and the results of operations of the acquired businesses since
their acquisition dates have been included in the consolidated financial
statements.

The following table summarizes the unaudited pro forma consolidated results of
operations of the Company, assuming the acquisitions had occurred at the
beginning of the following fiscal periods. The pro forma financial information
is not necessarily indicative of what would have occurred had the acquisitions
been made as of that date, nor is it indicative of future results of operations.

The pro forma amounts give effect to appropriate adjustments for the fair value
of the net assets acquired, amortization of the excess of the purchase price
over the net assets acquired, interest expense and income taxes.

NOTE E - LINES OF CREDIT AND SHORT-TERM DEBT

During early 1998, the Company refinanced its loan agreement ("Agreement") to
provide for a $4,500,000 (increased to $5,500,000 in May 1999) line of credit
with its primary bank and $3,500,000 with a second bank secured by substantially
all assets of the Company. In conjunction with this refinancing, the Company
borrowed $2,800,000 from the CEO to pay down the original line of credit. The
Company amended its Primary Line to extend the termination date to February 1,
2001 and to lower the interest rate to a fixed rate of 7.25% per annum. The
commitment fee of 0.5% on the unused portion of the Primary line was also
eliminated. All other terms of the Primary Line remained the same as the
original line of credit. The Secondary Line was extended to December 29, 2000
with the interest rate and all other terms remaining the same, including a
commitment fee of 0.5% charged on the unused portion. Borrowings under the Lines
are limited by eligible accounts receivable and inventory, as defined. As of
November 30, 2000, the outstanding balances on the Primary Line and Secondary
Line were $5,266,000 and $3,120,000, respectively. The additional availability
under the Primary and Secondary Lines were $234,000 and $226,000, respectively,
as of November 30, 2000. The Line agreements contain affirmative and negative
covenants including requirements related to tangible net worth, indebtedness to
tangible net worth and cash flow coverage. Additionally, dividend payments,
capital expenditures and acquisitions have certain restrictions. Subsequent to
November 30, 2000, the Company has renegotiated its Secondary Line to extend the
loan until July 31, 2001. Advance rates were lowered 5% for both receivables and
inventory. The maximum loan amount remains the same. Under the new terms, the
maximum available to borrow remains at $3,500,000.

In May 2000, the Company entered into a $3,000,000 note payable with its primary
bank to finance the acquisition of Lexel as discussed in Note C above. The 120
day note has a stated interest rate of LIBOR (6.5% as of November 30, 2000) plus
2%. The note is guaranteed by the CEO of the Company. The note was extended to
February 1, 2001.

In June 2000, the Company borrowed an additional $1,400,000 from the CEO to
assist with the acquisition of the electro optics division of IST. As of
November 30, 2000, the Company owes the CEO $3,600,000. During the second
quarter of fiscal 2001, the Company repaid $17,000 on a note payable to a
Director, leaving a balance of $183,000 at November 30, 2000.

In September 2000, the Company signed a letter of intent with its primary bank
to consolidate its existing Primary Line and the $3,000,000 Lexel acquisition
loan into one $10,000,000 credit facility. The interest rate will be based on a
floating LIBOR rate based on a debt to EBITDA ratio. The effective rate at the
date of commitment was 9.375%. The note will mature July 1, 2003. The principal
balance will be reduced by $500,000 on July 1, 2001 and $500,000 on July 1,
2002. Advance rates will remain the same as under the previous line and included
is a commitment fee for the unused portion of 0.25%. The Company does not
anticipate any problems in closing this transaction.

Net Sales
---------

Consolidated net sales increased $4,394,000 or 30.2% and $5,843,000 or 12.2% for
the three and nine months ended November 30, 2000 as compared to the same
periods ended November 30, 1999. CRT division sales were up $4,592,000 or 42.3%
and $7,541,000 or 21.5% for the three and nine month comparative periods. The
wholesale consumer electronic parts division sales were down $198,000 or 5.3%
and $1,698,000 or 13.3% for the same comparative periods.

                                       13
<PAGE>

The net increase in CRT division sales is primarily attributed to growth within
the display and monitor segments. The Company's newest locations within these
segments, Display Systems in Florida and Lexel Imaging Systems in Kentucky added
$3,921,000 and $9,268,000 for the three and nine months ended November 30, 2000.
Additional increases for the quarter ended November 30, 2000 as compared to
November 30, 1999 included contributions from other locations within the display
and monitor segments of $172,000 and $1,020,000, respectively. Offsetting
decreases were realized by the entertainment and component parts segments of
$400,000 and $111,000, respectively. The nine month comparative figures for the
CRT division includes offsetting declines, excluding the Florida and Kentucky
operations, of $1,719,000. The entertainment segment comprises the majority of
this balance with $1,437,000 fewer revenues reported for the nine months ended
November 30, 2000 as compared to the same period a year ago. This decline
reflects the decline in sales to major television retailers. Television retail
sales, particularly extended warranty sales to end user consumers as well as the
size of sets sold, negatively impacted the entertainment division sales.

The decline in the wholesale consumer parts segment of $198,000 and $1,698,000
for the three and nine month comparative periods ended November 30, 2000 versus
November 30, 1999 is attributed primarily to the sale of Vanco International,
Inc. ("Vanco"), a former subsidiary, in September 1999. The impact on sales is a
decline of $295,000 and $2,120,000 for the three month and nine month periods
ended November 30, 2000 as compared to November 30, 1999. Offsetting net
increases of $97,000 and $432,000 were recognized by the Fox International Ltd.,
Inc. subsidiary. Included in these increases for the three and nine month
comparative periods is $412,000 and $1,036,000 of sales to a major electronics
distributor. The offsetting decreases of $315,000 and $604,000 for the three and
nine months ended November 30, 2000 as compared to one year ago are a result of
a slow down in sales to smaller distributers and end user consumers.

Gross margins
-------------

Consolidated gross margins decreased from 31.3% to 30.1% for the nine months
ended November 30, 2000 as compared to the nine months ended November 30, 1999.
CRT division margins decreased from 29.6% to 29.2% and wholesale electronic
parts division margins decreased from 35.9% to 33.7% for the same comparative
periods.

The slight decline in margins within the CRT division resulted from the
increases in the monitor segment due to the Company's recent acquisition, Lexel,
whose gross margin rates are lower than the other CRT division locations. Also
included in the reduced margins are costs incurred due to the incorporation and
consolidation of the IST business acquired in June into the Lexington, KY
facility. The Company will have additional expenses in the fourth quarter with
the incorporation of the Raytheon and Anacomp businesses but with much less
anticipated impact.

The wholesale consumer parts division margins are down in part due to the
exclusion of Vanco in fiscal 2001. Additionally, there were declines in margins
realized on the fire and safety product line as selling prices were reduced to
move some older, slower moving merchandise. Lastly, margins on the increased
sales to the major electronics distributor are lower than to other retail
customers.

Operating expenses
------------------

Operating expenses as a percentage of sales decreased from 28.4% to 24.1% and
from 27.3% to 25.1% for the three and nine month comparative periods ended
November 30, 2000.

                                       14
<PAGE>

The CRT division operating expenses increased $1,769,000 for the nine months
ended November 30, 2000 as compared to November 30, 1999. Included in these
increases were expenses for the Florida and Kentucky operations of $1,041,000
that were not present in the previous year.

The wholesale consumer parts division reduced operating expenses $1,325,000 in
the nine month comparative period ended November 30, 2000 as compared to a year
ago. Included in this reduction is the elimination of operating expenses from
Vanco of $866,000. Additionally, the remaining subsidiary within the division
has eliminated two locations and reduced personnel at the home office.

Interest expense
----------------

Interest expense increased $141,000 and $327,000 for the three and nine month
comparative periods ended November 30, 2000 as compared to November 30, 1999.
The majority of the increase is attributed to the increase in debt for the two
comparative periods of $4,896,000 as well as the increase in interest rates. The
increases in debt are attributed to the recent business acquisitions.

Income taxes
------------

The effective tax rate for the nine months ended November 30, 2000 was 38% as
compared to 22.3% for the same period one year ago. There was a tax benefit of
10.9% reflected in the nine months ended November 30, 1999 attributed to a
capital loss carry forward that was applied to offset the $432,000 capital gain
realized on the sale of the Company's subsidiary, Vanco, in that year.
Additional benefits from foreign operation losses were also reflected in the
prior year's effective rate.

Foreign currency translation
----------------------------

The Company's Mexican subsidiary reports on the basis of the functional currency
as being the US dollar. Any exchange gains or losses due to the actual exchange
of pesos and US dollars are currently reflected in the Company's income
statement. There were no significant gains or losses for the current fiscal
year.

Liquidity and capital resources
-------------------------------

Working capital declined from $21,862,000 at February 29, 2000 to $19,920,000 at
November 30, 2000. The majority of the impact results from the use of short term
debt used to finance recent business acquisitions.

The Company entered into short-term debt arrangements in order to complete the
recent acquisitions of Lexel and IST with the intent to consolidate these notes
during the renewal of the Company's existing Primary Line during the second
quarter of fiscal 2001. The short-term notes and Primary Line were extended to
February 1, 2001 in order to complete the renewal with the Company's primary
bank. In September 2000, the Company reached an agreement to increase its
current line to $10,000,000 at a floating interest rate based on LIBOR. The
effective rate will be 9.375% based on LIBOR at the date of commitment. The note
will mature on July 1, 2003, and has a decreasing principal of $500,000 on July
1, 2001 and $500,000 on July 1, 2002. The note includes advance rates based on
available eligible receivables and inventory as well as the collateral of
certain real estate and equipment. Included in the agreement is an unused
commitment fee of 0.25% payable quarterly. The Secondary Line was extended to
December 29, 2000, and then subsequently to July 31, 2001.

                                       15

The Company does not anticipate any significant capital investments for the
balance of fiscal 2001.
