First Quarter 1996 Compared to First Quarter 1995

     Net sales for the first quarter of 1996 were $18,148,000, an increase of
$3,025,000, or 20%, over the prior year period sales of $15,123,000. The
increase in net sales was primarily attributable to sales of the new Adult
Nutritional products, which were introduced in March 1995, and Oral Care
products as well as strong sales of Feminine Hygiene and Cough/Cold products
resulting from increased volume.

     Gross profit for the first quarter of 1996 increased to 31% of net sales,
as compared to 30% for the prior year period. The increase was primarily
attributable to increased operating leverage related to an increase in
cough/cold products volume and reductions in certain raw material costs.

<PAGE>


     Selling, general and administrative expenses for the first quarter of 1996
were $2,806,000, an increase of $602,000, or 27%, over the prior year period
expenses of $2,204,000. As a percentage of net sales, selling, general and
administrative expenses increased to 16% in the current period as compared to
14% in the same period of 1995. These increases were primarily attributable to
commissions and freight expenses associated with increased sales and higher
costs associated with the Adult Nutritional category.

     Interest expense for the first quarter of 1996 was $330,000, as compared to
$359,000 for the prior year period. This decrease was attributable to lower
interest rates on lower average debt balances for the period.

     Other charges for the first quarter of 1996 were $224,000, primarily
consisting of costs associated with the Special Committee of the Board of
Directors and Wasserstein, Parella & Co., it's financial advisors. The prior
year quarter included $118,000 related to the gain on the sale of equipment.

     The effective income tax rate for the first quarter of 1996 was 40%, as
compared to 43% in the prior year period. The decrease relates to the
implementation of tax planning strategies undertaken in 1995 to maximize state
tax benefits.


Liquidity and Capital Resources

     As of December 30, 1995, the Company had working capital of $16,601,000,
including cash of $602,000. Net cash provided by operating activities was
$2,307,000 for the quarter ended December 30, 1995, as compared to $2,394,000 in
the prior year period.

     Net cash used in investing activities for the first quarter of 1996
consisted primarily of the MiLor acquisition for $2,538,000 and capital
expenditures of $1,359,000. The Company anticipates capital expenditures of
approximately $4,500,000 during the remainder of 1996 for the purchase of
machinery and equipment for increased capacity.

     Net cash provided by financing activities was $1,847,000 for the first
quarter of 1996, consisting of $2,325,000 of borrowings primarily attributable
to the Mi-Lor acquisition, partially offset by $478,000 of debt repayments on
the credit facility.

     On December 30, 1995, the Company's revolving credit facility was increased
$1,000,000 to $9,000,000. As of December 30, 1995, $7,400,000 was outstanding
under the Company's revolving credit facility and $1,300,000 of credit was
available based on managements estimates. Additionally, as of November 30, 1995
the LIBOR interest rate option on the revolving credit facility and term loans
with State Street Bank was reduced to LIBOR plus 1.5% and LIBOR plus 2.25%,
respectively.

     The Company believes that its existing working capital, anticipated funds
to be generated from future operations and the funds available under the
revolving credit facility, will be sufficient to meet all of the Company's
operating and capital needs for the foreseeable future. However, depending upon
future growth of the business, additional financing may be required.
