                                     PART I


Item 1(a).        General Development of the Business

         Prior to 1993, Core Technologies (Pennsylvania), Inc. (formerly
CenterCore, Inc., the "Company") was engaged solely in the business of
designing, manufacturing and distributing modular workstation systems and a line
of complementary office products, including air management systems for
temperature blending and breathing zone filtration. In February 1993, the
Company, through a subsidiary, acquired the assets and assumed the liabilities
of Airo Clean Engineering, Inc. ("Airo Clean"), a designer and manufacturer of
cleanroom and air filtration components and systems serving industry and the
hospital and health care markets. In September 1993, the Company, through a
subsidiary, purchased substantially all of the assets and assumed certain
liabilities of Maris Equipment Company ("Maris"), a specialty contractor
providing integration, installation and servicing of advanced electronic systems
for security access control, fire alarm, sound, communications and other
applications on a nationwide basis. These acquisitions were part of the
Company's overall strategy to improve the Company's operating performance by
penetrating new and growing markets to compensate for the government spending
decline in the market of the Company's furnishings segment.

         In 1995, the Company took steps to downsize its business, concentrate
on growing marketplaces with less reliance on government spending, and pay back
its bank debt as quickly as possible. On August 25, 1995, the Company sold all
of the assets relating to its furnishings business to a corporation organized by
the principals of the Apollo Group, Inc., an organization unaffiliated with the
Company and its principals. The assets sold included the rights to the name
"CenterCore", and subsequent to the transaction, the Company changed its
corporate name to Core Technologies (Pennsylvania), Inc. In the acquisition, the
Company received $2.3 million in cash, $1.7 million in installment notes payable
in 1996 and a $2.0 million subordinated note, which bears interest at a rate of
8% per annum commencing August 25, 1996. The payments due on the installment
notes have been reduced by $847,000 representing the value of receivables
remaining uncollected 120 days after closing plus a $50,000 collection fee. The
Company now owns the receivables which were not collected, expects to collect a
substantial portion of these in 1996 and, through March 1, 1996, approximately
$340,000 of these receivables had been collected by the Company . The principal
amount of the subordinated note will be amortized on a seven year level schedule
with semi-annual payments and a balloon payment due on August 25, 2000. Interest
and principal payments will commence on February 25, 1997. The installment
payments and the subordinated note are subordinated to the buyer's senior debt.

         The cash received by the Company in the sale of the furnishings
business was used to reduce the Company's outstanding bank borrowings.
Simultaneously, the Company negotiated an amendment to its agreements with the
bank to provide a $6.0 million credit line facility through March 31, 1997. The
new facility is secured by an aggregate of $4.5 million letters of credit from
Safeguard Scientific (Delaware), Inc. ("Safeguard") through June 30, 1997. The
Company's financial restructuring in 1995 also included the contribution to the
capital of the Company of 2,000,000 shares of the Company's common stock by
Safeguard, previously the Company's majority shareholder. Safeguard
simultaneously sold an aggregate 2,500,000 shares of the Company's common stock
to officers of the Company. See Item 13. As a result, while Safeguard remains
the Company's largest shareholder, Safeguard's beneficial ownership of the
Company's common stock was reduced below 50%.

         In 1995, the Company also sold its Canadian operation to Safeguard.
Safeguard sold this operation in February 1996, and the proceeds of the sale
were assigned to the Company. See Item 13.





<PAGE>



         In 1995 the Company significantly downsized Maris' operations to
concentrating on the low voltage security and fire alarm business and selected
"smart highway" operations. Smart highway programs involve the integration and
installation of communications networks for automated traffic management
systems. In connection with this downsizing, Maris turned over to its surety
companies all of its bonded construction projects in progress. See Item 7. These
changes in Maris' business allowed Maris to achieve an operating profit in the
fourth quarter of 1995.

         The Company's operations are now concentrated in Maris' non-bonded
projects and Airo Clean's air filtration business. The air filtration business
grew in 1995, particularly in the health care and hospital field. In 1995, the
Company acquired a new product line employing the Laminar Air Flow Patient
Isolation technology, which is a necessary component for bone marrow transplant
procedures.


Item 1(b).        Financial Information about Industry Segments

         Financial information about the Company's industry segments is
contained in footnote 16 to the Consolidated Financial Statements contained in
Item 14 below.

Item 1(c).        Narrative Description of Business


SECURITY SYSTEMS

Products and Services

         The Company, through its wholly owned subsidiary, Maris Equipment
Company, Inc. ("Maris"), provides low voltage electronic security systems to the
commercial and institutional markets. Products include fire alarm systems,
closed circuit television surveillance systems, card access security and alarm
monitoring systems, paging and intercom systems, hospital communications
systems, parking and revenue control systems and programmable logic controller
based central alarm and control systems. The Company no longer intends to pursue
large, bonded correctional facility and airport projects, and will no longer
provide correctional detention hardware, such as doors, security glazing and
access operating devices, to the correctional marketplace. Maris is also
pursuing a developing market--the "smart" highway program--which entails the
integration and installation of communications networks for automated traffic
management systems such as re-routing access lanes on bridges, tunnels and
superhighways as traffic patterns fluctuate throughout the day. Because the
"smart" highway projects are for state or federal transportation departments,
Maris may be required to provide surety bonds as a condition to winning these
jobs. It is likely that availability of bonding at Maris will be limited, at
best, in the near future. This may inhibit the rate of growth of the Company's
business in the "smart" highway program.

Patents and Proprietary Rights

         The Company is qualified as an electrical or alarm contractor, where
required, in most of the Continental United States. Maris does not hold any
material patents or proprietary rights. In its role as an integrator, Maris
obtains proprietary products from vendors for integration and installation at
customers' facilities or on construction sites.




                                       -2-

<PAGE>



Marketing and Distribution; Contracting Practices

         Maris has significantly reduced its marketing and sales staff in
accordance with its downsized business. The Company maintains a sales force in
its headquarters in Exton, Pennsylvania and in its regional office in Austin,
Texas. It also has satellite operations in San Antonio, Texas, New York City,
New York and Carson City, California.

         Maris will focus on bidding for smaller projects involving new or
upgraded construction to electrical contractors and on providing proposals to
owners and building managers for new or upgraded systems. These bids and
proposals are generally made at a fixed price based on the specifications
provided by the contractor, owner or manager. Accurate estimation of the
Company's total cost to complete a project is therefore crucial to
profitability. The Company will no longer bid on large, bonded correctional
facility and airport projects or on any correctional facility projects which
require the provision or installation of detention hardware. These are the
projects which Maris has in the past experienced difficulties managing and
completing profitably. Maris typically provides the integration engineering,
assembly shop drawings and system start-up with its own staff of project
managers, engineers, computer aided design (CAD) operators and technicians.

         As with any construction activities, there are risks associated with
the business. Cost overruns can occur from a variety of sources, including but
not limited to estimating errors, owner-initiated changes to system performance
or operation, unanticipated conditions at the installation site, delays in
collection of accounts receivable because of performance issues, delays caused
by other contractors which may cause the Company to be delayed and not be
compensated for such delay, and subjective assessment of system performance
compared to specifications. Maris and its subcontractors may submit change
orders for additional work or costs incurred beyond their control or beyond the
scope of the contract, but they are subject to approval. Working capital
requires active management for several reasons. Contracts frequently provide for
a retention of five percent or more of the total contract amount until
satisfactory completion of the contract. Maris retains comparable amounts from
its subcontractors, but often the subcontractors' work is completed before
Maris' work is completed. The timing and amounts of payments due to and from
Maris are often subject to dispute for the reasons described above resulting in
delays in collection of receivables and payment of payables. Maris attempts to
match the timing of payments to its subcontractors and vendors with payments
received from the general contractors or construction managers wherever
possible.

Design and Development; Product Availability; Inventory

         As an integrator, Maris purchases proprietary products for integration
and installation at customer facilities or construction sites. The Company does
not manufacture, design or develop any of its systems. The Company is a party to
a number of distribution agreements with the major manufacturers of the systems
which it provides. The Company has negotiated purchasing terms with its major
suppliers to provide products for Maris' projects. The Company will continue to
negotiate terms with a wider variety of suppliers, some of whom have had the
Company on credit arrangements which were stricter than usual terms. The
Company's relationships with several different suppliers allows the Company to
provide the latest technology to its markets without the necessity of designing
and developing new products. The Company maintains only a sufficient amount of
inventory as may be necessary to provide materials for warranty service and
repairs.




                                       -3-

<PAGE>



Revenue Recognition and Backlog

         The Company recognizes revenues on a percentage of completion basis.
Backlog consists of the uncompleted portion of the contracts. The backlog for
the security systems segment (excluding projects which have been turned over to
sureties) was approximately $6.8 million at December 31, 1995 as compared with
approximately $9.2 million at December 31, 1994. The Company anticipates that
approximately 91% of the backlog will be fulfilled during 1996. The remaining
backlog relates to performance under long-term service contracts.

Competition

         The Company provides security systems to a variety of institutional
markets. In that marketplace, the Company competes with numerous local dealers
and factory direct operations. There are also numerous firms operating
nationally in the construction marketplace that provide electronic security
systems integration. Competition is based primarily on price, quality of work,
and ability to complete the work on time. The Company's recent financial
difficulties and limited ability to obtain bonding are a competitive
disadvantage in the institutional markets. Many large institutional projects
require the contractor to provide a completion bond. However, in the commercial
and industrial building markets, the Company believes that its personnel and the
depth of their knowledge are important competitive factors.

U. S. Government Sales and Dependence on Significant Customers

         In the past, the Federal Bureau of Prisons had been a substantial
direct and indirect customer of Maris. In 1994, Maris generated revenues
constituting 13% of the Company's revenues from one federal correctional
facility project. Maris' contract on that project was with Omni Construction,
the general contractor for the project. However, the Company expects that it
will do very little work on federal or state correctional facilities in the
future. Maris has also performed in the past numerous large airport projects for
different customers, generally lasting not more than 12 months. These projects
had resulted in single customers accounting for significant portions of Maris'
revenues in any single year. Maris surety companies have taken over all of its
bonded correctional facility and airport jobs, and Maris does not intend to
perform any more large bonded correctional facility or airport projects for the
foreseeable future, although it may perform a number of smaller projects for a
single institutional customer. No single securities systems customer accounted
for more than 10% of consolidated revenues in 1995 and the Company does not
expect any single customer to account for 10% or more of the Company's
consolidated revenues in 1996. See Item 7 for a summary of sales and gross
margins for correctional facility and airport projects compared to other
projects.

Seasonality

         The security systems business is not subject to any material seasonal
fluctuations.


AIR FILTRATION PRODUCTS

Products

         The Company designs, manufactures and distributes through its wholly
owned subsidiary, Airo Clean, Inc. ("Airo Clean"), air filtration components and
systems which are used in a variety of industries which require particle-free,




                                       -4-

<PAGE>



ultra clean working environments, as well as patient isolation devices for
hospital and health care applications.

         The two room-size cleanroom systems manufactured and distributed by the
Company are the UDF Perforated Ceiling System and the UltraGuard(R) HEPA/Fan
Module Ceiling System, both of which can be delivered prepackaged using standard
components or can be custom designed to meet precise client specifications. The
UDF Perforated Ceiling System provides mass air displacement for a more uniform
distribution of clean air throughout a cleanroom environment and other
critically controlled areas. The UltraGuard HEPA/Fan Module Ceiling System is a
pressurized plenum system which utilizes a self-powered blower and HEPA filter
packaged together in one compact housing which can be installed in a suspended
ceiling grid.

         The Company also manufactures and distributes several application
specific, modular cleanroom systems which are available in a number of
prepackaged sizes or can be customized to meet special requirements:

         o The BioShield(TM) air filtration unit, a health care product
introduced late in 1993, is an air scrubbing product for controlling airborne
pathogens. The product is targeted for the health care industry. The BioShield
product meets or exceeds the Center for Disease Control guidelines for hospital
isolation rooms, which require a minimum of 6 air changes per hour. The
guidelines were issued during the fourth quarter of 1994. The Company expects
these guidelines to have a positive impact on BioShield sales, and is
aggressively promoting the product.

         o The Microlab(R) portable cleanroom can be set up by one person and
operational within 30 minutes to provide Class 100 air for sanitized operations
such as animal studies, health care, hybrid electronics, and medical device
assembly. The Microlab unit's compact design fits through standard 36" doorways,
can be expanded by linking multiple units together where additional space is
required, and can be quickly moved to another location or folded and stored
until needed again.

         o The CleanStation(R) single-pass softwall cleanroom is available in 15
sizes for Class 100, 1,000 or 10,000 air requirements and is designed for
customers with limited budgets requiring fast delivery and quick setup using
standard tools. The Flexi-Jet(TM) system is an economical solution that supplies
HEPA-filtered Class 100 air to a large area for industrial and institutional
applications that require minimal dust and other airborne contaminants. The
BioLock(R) is a portable, transparent clean air isolation enclosure used for
temporary isolation needs. The PureZone(TM) product is specifically targeted to
the commercial market and can be wall-mounted or retrofitted on existing
furniture systems.

         o In the third quarter of 1995, the Company acquired the Laminar Air
Flow Patient Isolation product line. Laminar Air Flow Patient Isolation
technology is a necessary component for bone marrow transplant procedures. The
products consist of modular components which can be managed in varied
configurations to create a room environment providing patient isolation. The
evolution in design refinements stems from more than a quarter million patient
hours of experience. The Company assembles the components at its Exton facility
and the product is then disassembled and reconstructed in the on-site hospital
settings. The room air is HEPA-filtered continually to provide maximum levels of
cleanliness for the patient.




                                       -5-

<PAGE>



Patents and Proprietary Rights

         The Company has a number of patents, patent applications, patent
licenses and trademarks with respect to various air filtration products. The
Company's issued patents and patent licenses expire between 2008 and 2011. The
Company believes that these patents and trademarks help differentiate the
Company's product offerings, but price and flexibility of product offerings are
equally important competitive factors.

Marketing and Distribution

         The Company primarily conducts its sales and marketing activities for
its cleanroom and other indoor air quality products from its Airo Clean facility
located in Exton, Pennsylvania. The Company markets and sells these products to
a wide variety of end-users throughout the United States through a network of
independent dealers and manufacturers' representatives primarily located in the
eastern United States. Some of the dealers have exclusive rights to sell the
Company's air filtration products to specific markets in a defined territory, so
that a territory servicing different markets may have more than one dealer.
These dealers are paid commissions for product sales. Customers of cleanroom
products include a variety of manufacturing operations, including biomedical,
microelectronics, medical devices, pharmaceuticals, and the hospital and health
care markets.

         The Company also has a distributor in Singapore which accounted for
approximately 18% of the sales of the air filtration products segment in 1995,
and approximately 19% in 1994.

         The Company's marketing activities seek to demonstrate the unique
applications and quality of its products. These activities include distribution
of sales literature, on-site demonstrations, direct mail programs, advertising,
publication of articles in the trade press and participation in industry
conferences and trade shows.

         Airo Clean's marketing efforts have been targeted primarily to
end-users and facility managers for use in manufacturing applications. However,
the Company anticipates expanding the marketing efforts for its air cleansing
devices to satisfy the increased demand for the prevention of infectious
contaminants in hospitals and for a variety of industrial applications.

Manufacturing

         The Company's cleanrooms and indoor air quality products are
manufactured in Exton, Pennsylvania. This manufacturing operation consists
primarily of an assembly process and testing of finished products.

Raw Materials and Supplies

         The Company's air filtration products include specific filters, blowers
and electronic components that are assembled with steel assemblies and cabinets
which constitute the majority of the products. Some of these items are custom
made for the Company and require coordination from qualified vendors to assure
availability of various electronic and steel assemblies. If any supplier should
terminate its relationship for any reason, the Company anticipates that it will
be able to develop, or obtain from other sources, substitute components without
sustaining any material adverse effects.



                                       -6-

<PAGE>




Backlog

         The backlog for the air quality segment was approximately $2.4 million
at December 31, 1995, compared to approximately $1.4 million at December 31,
1994. The Company anticipates that this backlog will be fulfilled in 1996.

         Backlog primarily represents firm accepted orders for air filtration
products. Although orders included in backlog may be canceled or rescheduled by
the customer, cancellations are uncommon and cancellation or restocking charges
may apply to a canceled order.

Seasonality

         The air quality segment of the business is not seasonal.

Competition

         The Company competes primarily in the hospital and health care segment
and the small to mid-size commercial and industrial applications segment of the
market for indoor air quality products. The Company's products are based on high
efficiency filtration systems, and are targeted at markets with strict air
purity requirements. There are a wide variety of companies providing services
similar to Airo Clean, and the market is very competitive. Competition is based
on price, ability of the products to satisfy specified air purity standards,
ability to customize products to meet specific customer needs, and reputation.
Management believes that the excellent long term reputation of Airo Clean and
its ability to provide customized solutions, combined with the growing number of
applications requiring air particle control, places the Company in a good
position to grow with the market and potentially improve its market share.

U.S. Government Sales and Dependence on Significant Customers

         Airo Clean does not sell any material amount of products to the U.S.
government. Airo Clean has one distributor located in Singapore which sells
products in China and Southeast Asia, and which accounted for approximately 18%
of Airo Clean's total revenues in 1995. The loss of this distributor would have
a material adverse effect on Airo Clean's business. To the Company's knowledge,
no end user of Airo Clean's products accounted for over 10% of the Company's
consolidated revenues in 1995. Airo Clean has one contract to provide cleanroom
systems to a domestic company which may account for as much as 14% of the
Company's consolidated revenues in 1996.

EMPLOYEES

         As of December 31, 1995, the Company had 99 employees engaged in its
continuing operations, excluding certain individuals who are employed by Maris
but are exclusively assisting the surety companies in completing jobs taken over
by them, and who are being funded by the surety companies. None of the Company's
employees is represented by a labor union. The Company considers its employee
relations to be good and has never experienced any work stoppages.

Item 1(d).        Financial Information About Foreign and Domestic Operations
                  and Export Sales

         The Company has sold all of its foreign operations. The Company's air
filtration products segment had approximately $.9 million of export sales
through a distributor in Singapore in 1995 and approximately $.8 million through
this distributor in 1994. These sales are dollar-denominated. The security
systems segment does not have any export sales.

Item 1(e).        Directors and Executive Officers of Registrant

         Information about the Company's executive officers and directors can be
found in Part III of this report under "Item 10. Directors and Executive
Officers of Registrant."

Item 2.  Properties

         The Company's continuing operations are conducted primarily at its
headquarters facility in Exton, Pennsylvania, where its executive offices are
located. This facility occupies approximately 21,580 square feet of space. This
space is leased from Safeguard, and the Company and Safeguard have executed a
three year lease, commencing April 1, 1996 providing for a monthly rental of
$12,588 and a monthly operating expense allowance of $4,784, which expense
allowance is subject to adjustment. See Item 13. The Company believes that the
headquarters facility will be adequate for its present and anticipated purposes.
The Company also leases sales and support offices in Austin, Texas and Los
Angeles, California.

         The Company continues to be obligated under a lease for approximately
2,900 square feet of office space in London, England which runs through
September 2013. The Company is negotiating with the landlord to terminate that
lease.

Item 3.           Legal Proceedings

         Maris is a named party to certain pending law suits relating to certain
of Maris' security system installation projects. In connection with Maris'
settlement with its surety companies, the surety companies have assumed all
liabilities and all claims and counterclaims in respect of these law suits, and
the surety companies have agreed to release Maris from its indemnity obligations
to them.

         The Company and its subsidiaries are involved in various claims and
legal actions arising in the ordinary course of business. In the opinion of
management, the ultimate disposition of these matters will not have a material
adverse effect on the Company's results of operations, liquidity, or
consolidated financial position.

Item 5.  Market for the Registrant's Common Stock and Related Stockholder 
         Matters

         As of May 4, 1995, the Company's common stock was delisted from the
NASDAQ small-cap market. Since that date, there has been no established public
trading market for the common stock. The Company's common stock continues to be
quoted by a limited number of market makers on the NASD Electronic Bulletin
Board under the symbol "CCOR." There can be no assurance that there will be
regularly available quotations from market makers in the Company's common stock
in the future. The following are the high and low bid quotations for the
Company's common stock as quoted by NASDAQ through the second quarter of 1995
prior to delisting from NASDAQ, and as quoted on the Electronic Bulletin Board
for the third and fourth quarter of 1995.

         The above bid quotations reflect inter-dealer prices without mark-ups,
mark-downs or commissions and may not necessarily represent actual transactions.

         There were 336 record holders of the Company's Common Stock on March
20, 1996. The Company has historically reinvested any earnings in the growth of
the business and has not paid cash dividends on its common stock.

Item 7.  Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results
         of Operations


Overview

         In 1995 the Company significantly downsized the Maris Equipment Company
("Maris") business by concentrating on the low voltage security and fire alarm
business and selected smart highway applications. The majority of net sales in
1994 represented bonded correctional facility and airport projects that the
Company has not pursued in 1995.

         Due to declining furniture sales, particularly to the Federal
government, the Company decided in 1994 to dispose of the furnishings segment.
On August 25, 1995 the Company completed the sale of the assets of the domestic
furnishings segment, including Corel Corporate Seating, for cash and notes
receivable. The Company has applied the proceeds from the sale to pay down its
bank debt. The Company has a tentative agreement to sell the UK furnishings
business. The Canadian operation was sold to Safeguard Scientifics, Inc. in
April 1995. Accordingly, the furnishings segment has been presented as a
discontinued operation.

         In connection with the above described sale of the Company's
furnishings segment, the Company changed its name to Core Technologies
(Pennsylvania), Inc. This name change was approved by the stockholders of the
Company at the 1994 Annual Meeting.

         In September 1995, Safeguard Scientifics (Delaware), Inc. ("Safeguard")
contributed to the capital of the Company 2,000,000 shares of the Company's
Common Stock and sold 2,500,000 shares of Common Stock to management. Prior to
the above transactions, Safeguard was the beneficial owner of 67% of the
Company's outstanding Common stock. Subsequent to the above transactions,
Safeguard became the beneficial owner of 36% of the Company's outstanding Common
Stock. The above information regarding Safeguard's beneficial ownership of the
common stock assumes conversion of the 15,000 shares of the Company's
Convertible Preferred Stock which are convertible by Safeguard into 1,500,000
shares of Common Stock.

         Continuing operations reflect the results of the on-going businesses of
Maris and Airo Clean. Because of the disposition of the furnishings segment and
the change in the focus of the business, comparisons from year to year are not
necessarily meaningful.

Review of continuing operations

         Net sales were $17.7 million in 1995, $31.2 million in 1994 and $15.2
million in 1993. The Company reported net earnings from continuing operations of
$51,600 in 1995, a net loss of $10.4 million in 1994 and a net loss of $113,200
in 1993. The Company also reported a gain of $100,000 in 1995, a loss of $5.0
million in 1994 and a loss of $703,000 in 1993 from discontinued operations.
Gross margins, as a percentage of sales, were 24.9% in 1995, (4.6%) in 1994 and
17.4% in 1993. The negative gross margin in 1994 reflects the losses incurred by
Maris due to cost over runs on the larger bonded correctional facility and
airport projects.

         Maris sales were $13.0 million in 1995, $27.2 million in 1994 and
$12.5 million in 1993. The sales in 1994 included $16.2 million of bonded
correctional facility and airport projects which were subsequently turned over
to the bonding companies. The sales increase in 1994 reflects the inclusion of
Maris operations for the entire year in 1994 compared to 1993 which included the
operating results subsequent to its September 1993 acquisition. Gross margins as
a percentage of sales at Maris were 23.1% in 1995, (8.4%) in 1994 and 15.9% in



                                      -12-

<PAGE>



1993. The negative gross margin in 1994 reflects losses incurred to complete
fixed-fee major correctional facility and airport projects in process at the
time of the September 1993 Maris acquisition. In 1994, the Company recorded a
provision for losses on transferring the contracts to the surety companies of
$4.0 million, more fully discussed in note three to the financial statements.

         The Company has ceased bidding on correctional facility and airport
projects. The following table summarizes correctional facility and airport
revenues and margins compared to all other revenues and margins for 1995, 1994
and for approximately three months subsequent to the Maris acquisition in 1993:

   (In Thousands)   Correctional Facility and Airport        All Other
                    ---------------------------------        ---------
                    1995    1994         1993       1995      1994        1993
                    ----    ----         ----       ----      ----        ----

Net Sales             -    $16,185     $ 9,162    $12,987    $10,993    $ 3,353

Cost of goods sold    -     19,763       7,821      9,982      9,689      2,705

Gross margin %        -      (22.1%)      14.6%      23.1%      11.9%      19.3%
of sales


         Airo Clean sales were $4.7 million in 1995, $4.1 million in 1994 and
$2.7 million in 1993. The increased sales in 1994 compared to 1993 reflected
increased product sales and the inclusion of Airo Clean for twelve months
compared to eleven months in 1993. Gross margin, as a percentage of sales,
increased to 29.9% in 1995 compared to 20.9% in 1994 and 24.2% in 1993. Airo
Clean's improved margins in 1995 can be attributed to selectively increasing its
selling prices, improved manufacturing efficiencies, and obtaining price
concessions from its vendors. Lower margins in 1994 compared to 1993 can be
attributed to increased sales discounts on several large export sales.

         Marketing efforts at Airo Clean have been focused on promoting the
BioShield and Ultraguard products which are air scrubbing devices for
controlling airborne pathogens and targeted for the health care industry. In the
third quarter 1995, Airo Clean acquired the laminar air flow patient product
line from Isolation Technology Systems, a provider of sterile cleanroom products
to the health care and hospital industries. Laminar air flow patient isolation
is a necessary component of bone marrow transplant procedures, and Airo Clean
will use this new product line to enhance its offering to the hospital and
health care markets.

         Sales and marketing expenses were $1.7 million in 1995, $3.3 million in
1994 and $1.2 million in 1993. These costs, as a percentage of sales, were 9.5%,
10.6% and 7.8% in 1995, 1994 and 1993, respectively. These costs decreased $1.6
million in 1995 due to cost reductions implemented at Maris and Airo Clean.
These costs increased $2.1 million in 1994 compared to 1993 primarily due to the
inclusion of Maris operations subsequent to its September 1993 acquisition.
Sales efforts at Maris are being concentrated in expanding the electronic
security systems business to take advantage of the Company's expertise and the
higher profit potential.

         General and administrative expenses were $2.2 million in 1995, $4.5
million in 1994 and $1.5 million in 1993. These costs, as percentage of sales,



                                      -13-

<PAGE>



were 12.4% in 1995, 14.4% in 1994 and 9.9% in 1993. The absolute dollar decrease
of $2.3 million in 1995 from 1994 reflects staff reductions and salary freezes
implemented at Maris and Airo Clean. The absolute dollar increase of $3 million
in 1994 from 1993 reflects the acquisition of Maris. The Company continues to
closely monitor and control costs and believes that additional sales can be
achieved without a proportional increase in business infrastructure.

         During 1994 the Company restructured its security business which
resulted in a charge of $2.2 million in the statement of operations, more fully
described in note three to the financial statements.

         Interest expense was $692,100 in 1995, $593,400 in 1994 and $116,200 in
1993. The increase in 1995 reflects the higher average debt level before the
reduction in debt due to sale of the furnishings segment of the Company and an
increase in the average interest rate. The increase in 1994 compared to 1993
primarily reflects additional debt incurred to finance the Maris acquisition and
to fund losses.

         The income tax benefit of $220,700 in 1995 and $1.7 million in 1994
principally reflects the benefit of recoverable U.S. income taxes as a result of
losses incurred. In addition, the Company has generated an operating loss
carryforward of approximately $7.3 million that may be used in future years to
offset taxable income until the year 2010, as more fully described in note
twelve to the financial statements.

         Backlog as of December 31, 1995 was $6.8 million at Maris and $2.4
million at Airo Clean. Backlog as of December 31, 1994 was $9.2 million at Maris
and $1.4 million at Airo Clean. Backlog as of December 31, 1993 was $4 million
at Maris and $2 million at Airo Clean. Maris backlog excludes correctional
facility and airport projects.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

         In August 1995, the Company successfully negotiated an amendment to its
existing bank credit agreement which provides a $6.0 million credit line
facility through March 31, 1997. Under this facility, Safeguard has provided
guarantees of $4.5 million in the form of letters of credit through June 30,
1997. Borrowings bear interest at prime plus 1 1/4%. The Company believes that
the combination of Safeguard's letters of credit and the working capital assets
of the on going business will be sufficient to satisfy or support the bank debt.
As of March 15, 1996 outstanding borrowings under the credit facility were $5.1
million.

         In August 1995 as a result of the sale of the furnishings segment, $2.3
million cash consideration was applied to reduce the Company's outstanding bank
borrowings. In addition to the cash consideration at close, the Company received
an aggregate of $1.7 million in installment payments due in 1996 and a $2.0
million Subordinate Note which bears interest at a rate of 8% per annum,
commencing August 25, 1996. The principal amount of the Subordinate Note will be
amortized on a seven-year level schedule with semi-annual payments and a balloon
payment due on August 25, 2000. Interest and principal payments on the
Subordinate Notes will commence February 25, 1997. The 1996 installment payments
have been reduced by $847,000, the amount of accounts receivable uncollected 120
days after closing plus a collection fee of $50,000. However, the Company
expects to substantially collect these receivables in 1996 and, through March 1,
1996, approximately $340,000 of these receivables had been collected by the
Company.





                                      -14-

<PAGE>



         The Company has entered into an agreement with the parties from whom it
acquired Maris, which significantly restructured the original purchase
transaction. Under this agreement the seller has agreed to offset its $3.6
million note receivable from the Company in exchange for releases from its
indemnification liabilities to the Company under the original asset purchase
agreement. The principal sureties have released the Company from its indemnity
obligations under certain construction projects in return for 300,000 shares of
Core Technologies stock, cash payments of $487,000 and additional payments of up
to $1 million in the aggregate equal to 20% of Maris' net earnings in 1998-2002.
The Company has negotiated terms with its principal vendors to supply the
materials needed to meet current requirements.

         Safeguard has made cash advances to the Company totaling $887,000 to
cover the closing costs of the sale of the furnishings segment and the cash
payments to the sureties. Safeguard is not contractually obligated to satisfy
any of the Company's obligations with the exception of the $4.5 million of
letters of credit used as collateral for the Company's bank credit facility.

         As a result of the restructurings, the Company has emerged as a
significantly downsized company. Availability of bonding on jobs will, at least
in the near term, be limited. Bank financing is available for limited working
capital requirements. If these sources of funds prove to be inadequate or in the
case of bank financing, unavailable, then the Company will have to seek
additional funds from other investors in order to continue operations. There can
be no assurance that new sources of funds, if required, will be available. The
Company believes it will be able to continue to operate in this downsized mode
and continues to focus on management of receivables to minimize the need to
utilize availability under the credit facility.

         Capital expenditures in 1995 were $182,900, $113,500 in 1994 and $2,500
in 1993. The 1995 expenditures were primarily used to upgrade computer systems
in Maris and Airo Clean. Capital expenditures for 1996 are projected at
approximately $100,000 with no formal commitments as of December 31, 1995.

Disclosure of Delinquent Filers Pursuant to Item 405 of Regulation S-K:

         Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 requires the
Company's directors, executive officers, and persons who own more than ten
percent of a registered class of the Company's equity securities ("10%
Stockholders") to file reports of ownership and changes in ownership of Common
Stock and other equity securities of the Company with the Securities and
Exchange Commission ("SEC"). Officers, directors and 10% Stockholders are
required by SEC regulation to furnish the Company with copies of all Section
16(a) forms they file. Based solely on its review of the copies of such forms
received by it and written representations from certain reporting persons that
no other reports were required for those persons, the Company believes that
during the period from January 1, 1995 to December 31, 1995, all Section 16(a)
filing requirements applicable to its officers, directors and 10% Stockholders
were complied with, except for one late Form 4 filed by Mr. Franks.

Item 11. Executive Compensation

REPORT OF THE BOARD COMPENSATION COMMITTEE

         The Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors (the "Committee")
determines compensation levels, including incentive compensation, for the
executives of the Company. Anthony A. Nichols is presently serving as the sole
member of the Compensation Committee. Charles A. Root was a member of the
Compensation Committee until his resignation from the Board of Directors in
April 1995.

Executive Compensation Policies

         The Company was and is in a highly competitive industry. In order to
succeed, the Company believes that it must be able to attract and retain
qualified executives, promote among them the economic benefits of stock
ownership in the Company, and motivate and reward executives who, by their
industry, loyalty and exceptional service, make contributions of special
importance to the success of the business of the Company. The Company has
structured its executive compensation program to support the strategic goals and
objectives of the Company.

         Base compensation levels and benefits for executives generally had been
set in previous years to be between the lower end and the midpoint of the scale
of compensation paid by comparable companies in the Company's principal
industry. Conversely, incentive programs were regarded to be above the midpoint
of the scale in the industry. In pursuing this philosophy, the Company believed
it could keep the fixed component of the compensation package at reasonable
levels while incenting its key executives and managers to achieve better than
average results. Therefore, the total cash compensation plan is made up of a
lower base and higher incentive opportunity which in total would be competitive
with comparable companies in the industry if the Company's objectives are
achieved. For the purpose of establishing these levels, the Company had reviewed
an evaluation by an independent compensation consultant of various published
industry salary surveys. In setting executive compensation packages for 1994 and
1995, the Committee considered an evaluation of executive compensation levels
for comparably-sized companies in the electrical contracting industry, rather
than in the office furnishings industry.

         Annual cash bonuses are based on return on assets and individual
performance. At the beginning of each year, the Committee approves a target
range of return on assets, and a range of potential bonus amounts for the chief
executive officer and each other executive officer, stated as a percentage of
base salary. Performance bonuses are awarded at year-end based on the actual
return on assets compared to the target range of return on assets, and the
achievement of individual objectives and individual contributions during the
year to the achievement by the Company of its financial and strategic objectives
as set forth in the Company's annual strategic plan.

         Grants of Company stock options are intended to align the interests of
executives and key employees with the long-term interests of the Company's
stockholders, and to encourage executives and key employees to remain in the
Company's employ. Generally, grants are not made in every year, but are awarded
subjectively based on a number of factors, including the pre-tax operating
earnings of the Company, the individual's contributions to the achievement of
the Company's financial and strategic objectives, and the amount and remaining
term of options already held by an individual. The Stock Option Committee of the
Board administers the Company's stock option plan. In 1995, options for 50,000
shares were granted to Michael H. Pelosi, III. See "Stock Options," below.

CEO Compensation

         In 1994, the Compensation Committee authorized an increase in Mr.
Mitchell's base salary to $140,000. However, based on the Company's performance
during the first quarter and its cash flow problems, in April 1994, Mr. Mitchell
initiated a 16% reduction in his salary in order to conserve Company resources.
Mr. Mitchell continued to draw base salary at this reduced level in 1995. A
payment of $25,000 was made to Mr. Mitchell in March, 1996, to partially
compensate him for the salary foregone in 1994 and 1995. Since the Company
failed to achieve the established target range of return on assets during 1994
and 1995, no bonus was paid for 1994 or 1995 to Mr. Mitchell.

Other Executive Compensation

         The Compensation Committee re-set executive salaries for 1994 for
certain executives based on its review of executive compensation in the
electrical contracting industry. Mr. Pelosi's compensation is governed by a
five-year employment agreement, and his salary was not adjusted. However, based
on the Company's performance during the first quarter and its cash flow
problems, in April and May 1994, all executives accepted salary reductions in
order to conserve Company resources. Since the Company failed to achieve the
established target range of return on assets during 1994, no bonuses were paid
to any of the Company's executive officers for 1994. Mr. Pelosi (but no other
executive officers) received a bonus in 1995. Mr. Franks received a payment in
March, 1996, to compensate him for salary foregone in 1994 and 1995.

By the Compensation Committee:

Employment Contracts and Termination of Employment and Change-in-Control
Arrangements.

         In connection with the acquisition of the assets of Airo Clean
Engineering, Inc. in 1993, Airo Clean, Inc. entered into a five-year employment
agreement with Michael H. Pelosi III providing for his employment through
February 1, 1998 as President of Airo Clean, Inc. at a minimum base salary of
$100,000 per year. Mr. Pelosi has also received residual salary payments agreed
to in connection with the acquisition of $37,500 per year, terminating after



                                      -21-

<PAGE>


1996. The agreement also provided for Mr. Pelosi to receive an incentive payment
each year equal to 3.75% of Airo Clean's net income, before allocated expenses
and taxes, in excess of $150,000 per year. Airo Clean did not achieve this
target in 1994, and consequently Mr. Pelosi did not receive any incentive
payment for 1994. In May 1994, in recognition of the Company's liquidity
problems, Mr. Pelosi accepted a temporary salary reduction for the balance of
1994 in order to conserve Company resources. In 1995, Airo Clean did achieve its
target and Mr. Pelosi received a bonus of $5,465. Upon the termination of Mr.
Pelosi's employment for reasons other than just cause or voluntary resignation,
he will be entitled to receive an amount equal to his base salary for the
balance of the term of the agreement. Pursuant to this agreement, Mr. Pelosi has
agreed to refrain from competing with the Company until the earlier of February
1, 1998 or two years after the termination of his employment.

         The following chart compares the cumulative total stockholder return on
the Company's Common Stock for the period December 31, 1990 through December 31,
1995 with the cumulative total return on the NASDAQ Index and the cumulative
total return for a peer group index for the same period. Because the Company has
discontinued its furnishings operations, the Company has selected as a new peer
group SIC Code 1731--Electrical Contractors, which is the primary industry in
which the Company is continuing to operate.

Directors' Compensation

         Directors are elected annually and hold office until their successors
are elected and have qualified or until their earlier resignation or removal.
Directors who are not employees of the Company or Safeguard Scientifics, Inc.
are paid a quarterly fee of $1,000 and $400 for each Board meeting attended,
including committee meetings attended on a date other than a Board meeting date.

         The Company also maintains a stock option plan for Non-Employee
Directors (the "Directors' Plan") which provides for the grant of options to
directors not otherwise employed by the Company, its parent or any of its
subsidiaries ("Eligible Director"). Each Eligible Director receives, as of the
date such person first becomes an Eligible Director, an option to purchase 5,000
shares of the Company's Common Stock at an option exercise price equal to the
fair market value of the Common Stock on the date of grant. All options granted
under the Directors' Plan vest in four equal annual installments beginning on
the first anniversary of the date of option grant and have a term of seven
years. During 1995, Mr. Nichols and Mr. Richter were each granted options for
5,000 shares of the Company's common stock exercisable at $.375 per share. No
options were exercised by any Eligible Director during 1995.

Item 13. Certain Relationships and Related Transactions

         Prior to 1995, the Company and Safeguard were parties to an
administrative services agreement pursuant to which Safeguard provided the
Company with administrative support services for an annual fee and the
reimbursement of certain out-of-pocket expenses incurred by Safeguard in
performing services under the agreement. The administrative support services
included consultation regarding the Company's general management, investor
relations, financial management, human resources management, certain legal
services, insurance programs administration, and tax research and planning. In
connection with the Company refinancing its bank credit facility in March, 1994,
the maximum annual administrative services fee was reduced to $300,000,
retroactive to January 1, 1994 and was subordinated to the bank loan. The
Company paid administrative services fees of $83,333 to Safeguard and accrued
the remaining fees of $216,667 in 1994. The administrative services agreement
was terminated in 1995 and no payments were made in 1995. However, Safeguard
provided certain administrative services to the Company at no charge in 1995.

         The Company rents 21,580 square feet of office space used as its
headquarters in Exton, Pennsylvania from Safeguard. From April 1, 1995 through
April 1, 1996, this facility was leased on a month to month basis with monthly
rental payments of $11,539 and a monthly operating expense allowance of $4,784,
which expense allowance is subject to adjustment based upon the Company's
proportionate share of actual operating expenses. The Company and Safeguard have
executed a three year lease, effective April 1, 1996, which provides for a
monthly rental of $12,588, and continues the previous arrangement with respect
to operating expenses. The Company also is responsible for its proportionate
share of utility charges and insurance for each of the leased premises. The
Company intends to retain this facility as its corporate headquarters. The
Company believes the lease terms are no less favorable than could be obtained
from an unrelated third party.

         Prior to April 1, 1995, the Company also rented 4,600 sq. feet of
office space in Exton, Pennsylvania from Safeguard. The Company paid monthly
rental to Safeguard of $3,067 per month and an operating expense allowance of
$1,303 per month prior to the termination of the lease. All amounts paid to
Safeguard under the lease for this property have been charged to discontinued
operations on the Company's financial statements.

         In September 1993, Safeguard loaned $1.1 million to the Company on a
subordinated, unsecured basis to partially finance the Company's acquisition of
Maris Equipment Company. In the fourth quarter of 1994, Safeguard contributed
this loan to the capital of the Company.

         Safeguard currently has in place letters of credit in the aggregate
amount of $4,540,000 to guaranty the Company's bank loans through June 30, 1997.
Safeguard has guaranteed varying amounts of the Company's debt in the past.
Safeguard received no monetary compensation for the extension of these
guarantees. The Company has agreed to indemnify Safeguard against loss resulting
from the above described guarantees.

         In June 1994, Safeguard purchased from the Company 15,000 shares of its
Series A Redeemable Convertible Preferred Stock ("Series A Shares") for an
aggregate purchase price of $1.5 million. The Series A Shares are convertible
into shares of Common Stock based on a conversion price of $1.00 per share of
Common Stock. The conversion price and number of shares into which the Series A
Shares may be converted are subject to anti-dilutive adjustments. The Series A
Shares are entitled to a 6% per annum dividend payable out of legally available
funds. Dividends which are not declared and paid will accumulate. No dividends
have been declared to date. Unpaid, undeclared cumulative dividends as of



                                      -26-

<PAGE>



December 31, 1994 were $45,000. The Series A Shares are entitled to one vote for
each share of Common Stock into which such Series A Shares may be converted. The
Company may redeem the Series A Shares at any time after June 1, 1995 and must
redeem all outstanding Series A Shares on June 1, 2001.

         In March 1995, the Company sold all of the capital stock of CenterCore
Canada Limited to Safeguard for $10,000. CenterCore Canada had an intercompany
liability to the Company of approximately $369,300, which liability survived the
stock sale. In February, 1996, Safeguard sold the assets of Safeguard Canada for
a cash payment of $100,000 U.S. plus contingent deferred payments equal to three
percent of the purchaser's annual consolidated revenues from all or any part of
the business or assets sold to the purchaser in the years 1996 through 2000, up
to a maximum aggregate of $100,000. The debt between CenterCore Canada and the
Company was satisfied by CenterCore Canada's assignment to the Company of the
cash proceeds and the rights to the contingent deferred payments.

         Effective September 29, 1995, Safeguard contributed to the capital of
the Company 2,000,000 shares of the Company's common stock and sold to Mr.
Mitchell, Mr. Franks and Philip J. Donnelly, a Vice President of the Company, an
aggregate of 2,500,000 shares of the Company's common stock, at a price of $.10
per share, payable in the form of a five year, interest-bearing promissory note.
The promissory notes bear interest at a rate of 6.35% per annum and are payable
in full upon the maturity date, September 29, 2000. Each individual is required,
however, to prepay the outstanding balance to the extent of 25% of the proceeds
of any sale or other disposition of any of the shares purchased from Safeguard.
The parties estimated the fair market value of the shares to be $.10 as of the
date of issue, taking into account a discount for lack of liquidity, after the
common stock of the Company was delisted from NASDAQ.

         Mr. Mitchell, Mr. Franks and Mr. Donnelly have entered into an
agreement with the Company pursuant to which they have deposited an aggregate of
700,000 of the shares acquired from Safeguard into escrow with the Company. The
Company may redeem these escrowed shares in order to satisfy exercises of
options under the Company's 1993 Stock Option Plan. The redemption price payable
by the Company will be equal to the exercise price payable by the individual
exercising the option. The Company issued options for 684,000 shares of its
common stock in August, 1995, at an exercise price of $.375 per share.

         In 1995, Safeguard advanced $887,000 to the Company to cover closing
costs of the sale of the furnishings business and payments to Maris' sureties.
Repayment of these amounts are subordinated to the Company's bank obligations.

         In connection with the Airo Clean acquisition in 1993, Airo Clean, Inc.
entered into a five-year employment agreement with Joseph P. Pelosi, the brother
of Michael H. Pelosi, III. The agreement provides for a minimum annual base
salary of $80,000, and provides for an incentive payment each year equal to
3.75% of Airo Clean's net income, before allocated expenses and taxes, in excess
of $150,000. During 1994, the Company paid Joseph Pelosi $80,000 plus normal
employee benefits.

         Also in connection with the Airo Clean acquisition, Airo Clean entered
into a lease for approximately 15,300 square feet of flex office, warehouse and
assembly space in Exton, PA from Michael Pelosi, Jr. and Lucille Pelosi, who are
the parents of Michael H. Pelosi, III. The lease continues through December
2001. During 1995, Airo Clean paid $110,000 as rent to Mr. and Mrs. Pelosi, and
also paid all operating expenses for the leased premises. The Company has
consolidated Airo Clean's operations into the Company's headquarters facility,
and subletted the Airo Clean space. Through the remaining term of the lease, the



                                      -27-

rental paid by the sublettor will be $128,000 less than the rent to be paid by
the Company.

Independent Auditors' Report



The Board of Directors and Stockholders
Core Technologies (Pennsylvania), Inc.:

We have audited the consolidated balance sheets of Core Technologies
(Pennsylvania), Inc. and subsidiaries as of December 31, 1995 and 1994 and the
related consolidated statements of operations, stockholders' deficit and cash
flows for each of the years in the three-year period ended December 31, 1995.
These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's
management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated
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 consolidated financial statements referred to above
present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Core
Technologies (Pennsylvania), Inc. and subsidiaries as of December 31, 1995 and
1994, and the results of their operations and their cash flows for each of the
years in the three-year period ended December 31, 1995, in conformity with
generally accepted accounting principles.

                   NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS


1.       Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

         DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS - The Company provides integration,
installation and servicing of advanced electronic security and fire alarm
systems in its major market areas. Work is generally performed under fixed fee
or unit price contracts as a subcontractor to the general contractor or as a
prime contractor to the owner. The Company also designs, manufactures and
distributes air filtration units, components and systems which are used in a
variety of industries which require particulate-free, ultra-clean, working
environments, as well as patient isolation devices for hospital and health care
applications.

         PRINCIPLES OF CONSOLIDATION - The consolidated financial statements
include the accounts of Core Technologies, Inc. and its domestic, wholly-owned
subsidiaries (the Company). All significant intercompany accounts and
transactions have been eliminated. The furnishings segment of the Company was
disposed of in August 1995 and accordingly is reported as a discontinued
operation.

         RETAINAGE RECEIVABLES AND PAYABLES under contracts which may extend
beyond one year are classified as current assets and current liabilities.
Accounts receivable under retainage provision contracts at December 31, 1995 and
1994 were $415,900 and $795,100, respectively. Accounts payable, under retainage
provision contracts at December 31, 1995 and 1994, were $11,100 and $71,900,
respectively.

         INVENTORIES are valued at the lower of standard cost (which
approximates average cost) or market.

         PLANT AND EQUIPMENT are carried at cost and depreciated on a
straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of the assets (leasehold
improvements - 5 years; machinery and equipment - 3 to 7 years).

         EXCESS OF COST OVER FAIR VALUE OF NET ASSETS OF BUSINESSES ACQUIRED is
amortized on a straight-line basis primarily over 15 years. Assessment of the
carrying amount of goodwill is made when changing facts and circumstances
suggest that the carrying value of goodwill or other assets may be impaired
using the forecasted undiscounted cash flow from the related business activity
(including possible proceeds from a sale of the business). Accumulated
amortization at December 31, 1995, 1994 and 1993 was $136,500, $88,400 and
$271,900, respectively.

         TAXES ON INCOME are accounted for using the asset and liability method.
Under this method, deferred income taxes are recognized for the tax consequences
of "temporary differences" by applying enacted statutory tax rates applicable to
future years to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts and
the tax basis of existing assets and liabilities. The effect on deferred taxes
of a change in tax rates is recognized in operations in the period that includes
the enactment date.

                                      F-6
<PAGE>

         CONTRACTING SALES are recognized using the percentage of completion
accounting method determined by the ratio of cost incurred to date on the
contract to management's estimate of the total contract cost. Provisions for
estimated losses on uncompleted contracts are recorded in the period in which
the losses are determined. Changes in estimated sales and costs are recognized
in the periods in which such estimates are revised.

         SALES of air filtration products are recognized when product is shipped
and title or risk of loss is transferred. Revenue from installation services is
recognized when performed.

         PRIMARY EARNINGS (LOSS) PER SHARE of common stock are computed on net
earnings (loss) using the weighted average number of shares outstanding during
each period, including common stock equivalents (unless antidilutive) which
would arise from the exercise of stock options. On a fully diluted basis, the
weighted average number of shares outstanding is adjusted to assume the
conversion of the convertible preferred stock (unless antidilutive).

         FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS, principally accounts receivable, notes
receivable and debt, are carried at cost which approximates fair value.

         USE OF ESTIMATES - The preparation of financial statements in
conformity with general 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.
Estimates made in the preparation of the accompanying financial statements
include the amount of reserves established for inventory and uncollectible
amounts included in accounts receivable and estimates used in costs to complete
contracts in progress.

2.       Acquisitions

         On February 1, 1993, the Company acquired the assets and assumed the
liabilities of Airo Clean Engineering, Inc. (Airo Clean), a designer and
manufacturer of cleanroom and air filtration components and systems for
$828,000. The acquisition was accounted for by the purchase method with excess
of cost over fair value of net assets of businesses acquired of $220,300
recorded.

         On September 22, 1993, the Company purchased substantially all of the
assets and certain liabilities of Maris Equipment Company (Maris), a
wholly-owned subsidiary of JWP, Inc. (JWP). The purchase price was a fixed
amount of $4.3 million plus a contingent payment. The fixed portion was funded
by a note payable to JWP for $3.95 million and $350,000 in cash at closing. The
acquisition was accounted for by the purchase method, and accordingly, the
purchase price was allocated to the assets acquired and the liabilities assumed
based on the estimated fair value at the date of acquisition. Excess of cost
over fair value of net assets of business acquired of $1,954,800 was recorded
(note 3).

3.       Restructurings

         Furnishings Segment

         On August 25, 1995, the Company sold the assets of its furnishings
segment consisting of the business of designing, manufacturing and distributing
space-efficient, modular workstation systems and a line of complimentary office
products, including cable and wiring systems, ergonomically designed seating
products, and air management systems for temperature blending and breathing zone
filtration. The Company had conducted the furnishings segment directly, and
through its majority owned subsidiary, Corel Corporate Seating, Inc. (Corel).
The sales price was comprised of three components, determined based on the net
assets sold to The CenterCore Group, Inc., as follows: $2,345,700 in cash,
$1,695,500 million in installment payments to be paid in 1996 and a $1,962,300
Subordinate Note, for an aggregate sales price of $6,003,500. The installment
payments in 1996 were reduced by $847,300 representing the amount of accounts
receivable not collected 120 days after closing plus a collection fee of
$50,000. The Subordinate Note bears interest at the rate of 8% per annum,
commencing on August 25, 1996. The principal amount of the Subordinate Note will
be amortized on a seven year level schedule with semi-annual payments, and with
a balloon payment due August 25, 2000. Interest and principal payments will
commence February 25, 1997 and continue semi-annually thereafter until maturity.
The Company issued 150,000 shares of common stock to the minority shareholder of
Corel in payment for its minority interest. The Company also has a tentative
agreement to sell the United Kingdom furnishings business for approximately
$91,000 to be paid over five years. The Canadian furnishings business was sold
to Safeguard Scientifics, Inc. (Note 8) who subsequently sold the business to
the Canadian management for $100,000 in cash and up to $100,000 in payments
based on net annual sales through the year ending December 31, 2000. Proceeds of
the Canadian sale will be remitted to the Company. In 1994, the Company recorded
an anticipated loss of $3,302,800 related to the sale of these businesses.
Revenues for the furnishings segment, which are not included in consolidated
sales, for 1995, 1994 and 1993, were $20,152,200, $34,088,200 and $37,924,900,
respectively.

         The following is a summary of the net assets of the furnishings segment
at December 31, 1994 (in thousands):

                  Current assets                                    $12,787
                  Net property and equipment                          1,065

                  Net assets                                         $7,157
                                                                     ======


         Security Systems Segment

         In 1994, the Company continued to suffer reductions in the
profitability of fixed-fee contracts since its acquisition of Maris (Note 2) in
1993. This erosion was caused primarily by unforeseen costs and operational and
contract problems, which were exacerbated by insufficient financing to support
the timely performance of the effected contracts. As a result of this profit
degradation, the Company during 1994 was not able to pay its vendors on a timely
basis and had difficulty completing work in progress.

         Most of the larger jobs affected by these issues were bonded and the
Company entered into agreements with the surety companies to have them assume
responsibility for completing their respective jobs. The Company has obtained
agreements with sureties releasing the Company from any financial obligations
with respect to completing the jobs in exchange for 300,000 shares of the
Company's stock and a cash settlement totaling $487,000.

         The Company has agreed with the parties from whom it purchased Maris,
to restructure the original purchase transaction by offsetting its note
receivable from Maris of $3.6 million in exchange for releases from its
indemnification of liabilities to the Company under the original asset purchase
agreement and additional payments of 20% of Maris' net earnings in 1998-2002 up
to $1 million in the aggregate. The effective $3.6 million reduction in the note
payable net of the related write-off of $1.8 million of remaining costs in
excess of the fair value of net assets of business acquired recorded for the
Maris acquisition has been reflected in the financial statements as of December
31, 1994.

6.       Commitments and Contingencies

         In consideration for contributions to the development of certain air
filtration products, the Company agreed to pay royalties based on sales of such
products to a former shareholder of the dealer through December 1996. Royalty
costs were $17,900 and $18,500 in 1995 and 1994, respectively.

         Maris is a named party to certain pending law suits relating to certain
of Maris' security system installation projects. Maris also believes that it has
certain claims with respect to other security systems installation projects for
which it has not filed law suits. In connection with Maris' settlement with its
surety companies, the surety companies have assumed all claims and all
liabilities in respect to these and potential law suits, and the surety
companies have agreed to release Maris from its indemnity obligations to them.

         The Company is subject to other pending and threatened legal
proceedings and claims which have arisen in the ordinary course of business and
which have not been fully adjudicated. These actions, when ultimately concluded
and determined, will not, in the opinion of management, have a material effect
on the results of operations, liquidity, or the financial position of the
Company.

8.       Related Party Transactions

         Safeguard Scientifics, Inc. (Safeguard) owns 25% of the outstanding
common stock of the Company at December 31, 1995 and all of the redeemable
convertible preferred stock. In 1995, Safeguard contributed 2 million shares to
the Company and sold 2.5 million shares to the management of the Company and
provided bank guarantees of an aggregate of $4.5 million in the form of letters
of credit through June 30, 1997.

         The Company and Safeguard were parties to an administrative services
agreement pursuant to which Safeguard provided the Company with administrative
support. In 1995, the administrative services agreement was terminated. However,
Safeguard provided certain administrative services to the Company at no charge
in 1995. Prior to 1995 the agreement for these administrative services was for a
maximum annual fee of $500,000 and the reimbursement of certain out-of-pocket
expenses incurred by Safeguard in performing services under the agreement.
However, in conjunction with the 1994 bank agreement, the fee was reduced to
$300,000 retroactive to January 1, 1994, and payment of the fee was to be made
subject to the Company's satisfaction of certain requirements under its bank
agreement which the Company was not able to satisfy. Therefore, no payments were
made or are owing under this agreement in 1995. The Company made payments of
$83,333 to Safeguard and accrued the remaining fees of $216,667 in 1994. The
amount charged to continuing operations was $0 in 1995, $220,000 in 1994 and
$13,500 in 1993. The balance of these fees were charged to discontinued
operations. The Company leases building space from Safeguard. The amount payable
to Safeguard at December 31, 1995 and 1994 for these transactions and other
expenses incurred on behalf of the Company was $105,800 and $502,400,
respectively.

         During 1994 Safeguard purchased 15,000 shares of redeemable convertible
preferred stock for $1.5 million. The preferred stock has a stated value of $100
per share and entitles holders to quarterly dividends of $1.50 per share
commencing on July 1, 1994. Unpaid undeclared cumulative dividends were $135,000
and $45,000 as of December 31, 1995 and 1994, respectively. The Company may
redeem all outstanding preferred stock any time after June 1, 1995 at the stated
value plus any unpaid dividends. However, the preferred stock must be redeemed
prior to June 1, 2001. The preferred stock is convertible at any time into
shares of the Company common stock at one share for each dollar of stated value
plus unpaid dividends. The preferred stock has voting privileges equivalent to
the shares of common stock into which the preferred stock converts. The Company
has authorized 1,000,000 shares of preferred stock.

         In August 1995, the Company successfully negotiated an amendment to its
existing bank credit agreement which now provides a $6.0 million credit facility
and restructured financial covenants through March 31, 1997. This facility is
secured by guarantees of $4.5 million in the form of letters of credit from
Safeguard through June 30, 1997. Borrowings bear interest at prime plus 1 1/4%.
The agreement limits borrowings under the credit facility to certain levels of
receivables and inventory and requires the maintenance of liquidity and minimum
levels of net worth and earnings, and limits the amounts available for capital
expenditures and amounts to be advanced to the Company's subsidiaries. The
agreement prohibits the payment of cash dividends. The Company pays a commitment
fee of 1/4% on the unused portion of the credit facility.

         During 1995 and 1994, the Company borrowed a maximum of $9.9 and $8.8
million, respectively, under its credit facilities. The weighted average
interest rate was 10.0% and 8.1% in 1995 and 1994, respectively.

         Interest paid, for continuing operations in 1995, 1994 and 1993 was
$692,100, $593,400 and $116,200, respectively.

11.      Major Customers

         Prior to 1995, the Company's security systems segment was primarily in
the prison and airport construction business where the customer is an agent of
either the federal or state governments or local municipalities. During the year
ended December 31, 1994, one customer generated 15%, and during 1993 three
customers generated 15%, 14% and 12% of security systems sales.

         In 1995, the Company turned over to its sureties most of its prison and
airport construction projects, and does not intend to bid for any significant
additional prison or airport projects.

         In 1995, the Company's security segment primarily provided low voltage
electronic security systems to the commercial and industrial markets where the
customers are either end users or general contractors. During the year ended
December 31, 1995 two customers generated 12% and 10% of security sales.

         The Company's air filtration products segment had one customer that
generated 18% and 19% of air technologies product sales in 1995 and 1994,
respectively.

13.      Stock Options

         In 1995, the Company's 1993 Stock Option Plan was amended to increase
the number of shares of Common stock which may be issued upon exercise of
options granted by 700,000 shares, from 500,000 shares to 1,200,000 shares of
Common stock in the aggregate. Under the various incentive stock option plans,
selected employees may be granted options to purchase the Company's common stock
at a price not less than fair market value on the date of grant.

         Generally, all options are exercisable 25% per year beginning one year
from date of grant. Options expire seven years from the date of grant.

         A summary of stock option activity in the plans follows:

                                            1995                   1994

14.      Retirement Plans

         The Company has defined contribution plans which cover all employees.
Certain plans provide for a limited Company match of employee contributions. The
Company contributed $2,100, $132,700 and $180,900 in 1995, 1994 and 1993,
respectively.

15.      Liquidity and Capital Resources

         The Company believes that the combination of Safeguard's letters of
credit and the working capital assets of the ongoing business will be sufficient
to support the borrowing under the credit line facility. As of March 1, 1996
outstanding borrowings under this facility were approximately $5.0 million.

         Safeguard has made cash advances to the Company totaling $887,000 to
cover the closing costs of the sale of the furnishings segment and the cash
payments to the sureties. Safeguard is not contractually obligated to satisfy
any of the Company's obligations with the exception of the $4.5 million of
letters of credit used as collateral under the Company's bank credit facility.
