NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Unaudited)

1.  INTERIM FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

The accompanying unaudited, condensed, consolidated financial statements for the three months ended April 1, 2000 have been prepared in accordance with
the instructions for SEC Form 10-Q and, accordingly, do not include all disclosures required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. In our
opinion, all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring accruals considered necessary for a fair presentation, have been included.

Interim
unaudited financial results should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements included in the SEC Annual Report, Form 10-K, for the
transition period ended December 31, 1999.

The
results of operations for the three months ended April 1, 2000 are not necessarily indicative of the operating results to be expected for the full year.

2.  EARNINGS PER SHARE

Earnings per share are computed in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 128, "Earnings per Share." Basic earnings per
share are computed using the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during each period. Diluted earnings per share include the dilutive effect of common shares potentially issuable upon
the exercise of stock options and warrants outstanding. The following table reconciles the denominators used in computing basic and diluted earnings per share:

3.  REPORTING OF COMPREHENSIVE NET INCOME OR (LOSS)

In 1997, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS), No. 130 "Reporting Comprehensive Income"
which establishes standards for the reporting and display of comprehensive income (loss) and its components in a full set of general-purpose financial statements. Under this standard, certain
revenues, expenses, gains, and losses recognized during the period are included in comprehensive income (loss), regardless of whether they are considered to be results of operations of the period.
During the three-month periods ended April 1, 2000 and March 27, 1999 total comprehensive income (loss) equaled net income (loss) as reported on the Consolidated Statements of
Operations.

4.  ACQUISITION

On January 31, 2000, we completed the acquisition of Aseco Corporation, a Massachusetts-based manufacturer of singulated handling equipment for the
back-end of the semiconductor manufacturing process. The acquisition was structured as a stock-for-stock purchase and Aseco is now a wholly-owned subsidiary of MCT.
The purchase price totaled $24.0 million, consisting of 2.9 million shares of our common stock valued at $22.5 million issued to former Aseco shareholders and $1.5 million
of acquisition-related costs.

The
acquisition was accounted for using the purchase method of accounting. The results of operations of Aseco are included in our consolidated financial statements beginning
January 31, 2000. The purchase price has been allocated based on the estimated fair values of net assets acquired at the date of acquisition. The excess of purchase price over net assets
acquired, amounting to $9.6 million, has been preliminarily allocated to goodwill, and is being amortized using a straight line method over the estimated useful life of five years. Other
intangible assets, including established workforce, customer list, and core and developed technology, totaling $9.9 million are being amortized using the straight-line
method over the estimated useful lives of two to five years. In accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, this initial allocation may be adjusted in future quarters as valuations of
certain accounts, including inventory and accrued liabilities are finalized.

The
following unaudited pro forma information presents a summary of combined results of operations of MCT and Aseco as if the acquisition had occurred at the beginning of the periods
presented, along with certain pro forma adjustments to give effect to amortization of goodwill and other intangible assets. The pro forma information also does not attempt to show how we would
actually have performed on a combined basis had the companies been combined throughout these periods. The following pro forma information, therefore, although helpful in illustrating the financial
characteristics of our combined company under one set of assumptions, does not attempt to predict or suggest future results.

5.  RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

SFAS No. 133, "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities"Issued in June 1998, SFAS
No. 133 which establishes a new model for accounting for derivatives and hedging activities and supersedes and amends a number of existing accounting standards. SFAS No. 133 requires
that all derivatives be recognized in the balance sheet at their fair market value, and the corresponding derivative gains or losses be either reported in the statement of operations or as a deferred
item depending on the type of hedge relationship that exists with respect to such derivative. We have not yet completed an assessment of the impact of adopting the provisions of SFAS No. 133 on
our financial statements. The standard is effective for us in 2001.

Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 101Revenue Recognition in Financial Statements (SAB 101)In
December 1999, the Securities and Exchange Commission staff issued SAB 101, which, among other things, establishes the SEC's interpretation that if uncertainty exists about customer acceptance
of a product, revenue should not be recognized until acceptance occurs. Customer acceptance provisions may be included in a contract to enforce a customer's right to (1) test the delivered
product, (2) require the seller to perform additional services subsequent to delivery of an initial product or performance of
an initial service, such as a seller is required to install or activate delivered equipment, or (3) identify other work necessary to be done before accepting the product. The SEC presumes that
such contractual customer acceptance provisions are substantive, bargained-for terms of an arrangement. Accordingly, when such contractual customer acceptance provisions exist, the SEC
generally believes that the seller should not recognize revenue until customer acceptance occurs or the acceptance provisions lapse.

A
seller should substantially complete or fulfill the terms specified in the arrangement in order for delivery or performance to have occurred. When applying the substantially
complete notion, the SEC believes that only inconsequential or perfunctory actions may remain incomplete such that the failure to complete the actions would not result in the customer receiving a
refund or rejecting the delivered products or services performed to date. In addition, the seller should have a demonstrated history of completing the remaining tasks in a timely manner and reliably
estimating the remaining costs. If revenue is recognized upon substantial completion of the arrangement, all remaining costs of performance or delivery should be accrued.

Consistent
with industry standards, we have historically recognized revenue at product shipment, unless acceptance criteria were significant. The SEC's interpretation, as explained
above, will create a deferral of revenue recognition until product acceptance occurs.

On
March 24, 2000, the SEC deferred implementation of SAB 101 until the second calendar quarter of 2000, and on June 26, 2000 implementation was further deferred until
the fourth quarter of calendar 2000.

We
are continuing to evaluate the potential impact of SAB 101 on our revenue recognition policy. We believe that the SEC is continuing to study the impact of SAB 101 on revenue
recognition. We have not completed our evaluation of the impact of SAB 101; however, we expect it to have a material impact on our financial statements in its current form.

6.  SUBSEQUENT EVENT

On April 11, 2000, our board of directors changed our fiscal year end to December 31, effective December 31, 1999. Accordingly, on
June 30, 2000, we filed a report on Form 10-K with respect to the transitional period created by this change. Our interim thirteen-week quarters each end on a
Saturday,
with the first quarter of the new fiscal year ended on April 1, 2000, which is one week later than the quarterly reporting date using our previous fiscal year. As a result, the quarterly
operating results and balance sheet amounts vary from those recently reported on our Form 10-Q dated May 9, 2000 for the three months ended March 25, 2000, which was
filed to comply with our previous fiscal year period reporting requirements.

ITEM 2.  MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF RESULTS OF OPERATIONS AND FINANCIAL CONDITION

The following discussion of our results of operations and financial condition should be read together with the other financial
information and consolidated financial statements included in this document. This discussion contains forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties. Our actual results could differ
materially from those anticipated in the forward-looking statements as a result of a variety of factors, including those discussed in "Risk Factors" and elsewhere in this
document.

Overview

We supply automation solutions for the global semiconductor test and assembly manufacturing market. Our solutions include automated test handlers, factory
automation software and our new integrated Smart Solutions product line. We believe that our products can significantly improve the productivity, yield and throughput of the back-end, or
to the post-wafer manufacturing process, including assembling, packaging, testing and singulating semiconductor devices.

The
demand for our products and services is dependent upon growth in the semiconductor industry and the increasing automation needs of semiconductor manufacturers and independent test
and assembly facilities. The semiconductor capital equipment market was in a significant downturn that in 1999, that was accompanied by the economic crisis in Asia, where approximately 65% of our
products were sold during the six-month transition period ended December 1999. These industry and economic conditions adversely affected our net sales and operating results in 1999.
Beginning mid-year calendar 1999, the industry began to stabilize and show signs of a gradual recovery, which we believe will
facilitate improved sales and operating results for our fiscal year ending December 31, 2000. No assurance can be made, however, that such improvement will occur.

Beginning
in 1999, we broadened our strategy from that of a test handler manufacturer to becoming a provider of comprehensive automation solutions for the back-end of the
semiconductor manufacturing process. First, we developed and introduced in February 1999 our Tapestry strip handler. Tapestry combines strip handling capability with robotics, machine vision
technology and critical software, enabling the testing and tracking of semiconductor devices in strip form and the generation of critical process data throughout the test process. Second, in
June 1999 we acquired the Infinity Systems division of Fico BV. Infinity Systems has been involved in the development of factory automation software for the semiconductor manufacturing
industry. Infinity System's software expertise was integral to the development of our integrated Smart Solutions product line, introduced in May 2000. Together with a third party tester, our
Smart Solutions products including our Tapestry handler enable complete automation of the test, laser mark, mark inspect, singulation, sort-and-tape and reel processes.

Acquisition of Aseco Corporation.On January 31, 2000, we completed the acquisition of Aseco Corporation, a
Massachusetts-based manufacturer of singulated handling equipment for the back-end of the semiconductor manufacturing process. The acquisition was structured as a
stock-for-stock purchase and Aseco is now a wholly-owned subsidiary of MCT. The purchase price totaled $24.0 million, consisting of 2.9 million shares of our
common stock valued at $22.5 million issued to former Aseco shareholders and $1.5 million of acquisition-related costs.

The
acquisition was accounted for using the purchase method of accounting. The results of operations of Aseco are included in our consolidated financial statements beginning
January 31, 2000. The purchase price has been allocated based on the estimated fair values of net assets acquired at the date of acquisition. The excess of purchase price over net assets
acquired, amounting to $9.6 million,

has been preliminarily allocated to goodwill, and is being amortized using a straight line method over the estimated useful life of five years. Other intangible assets, including established
workforce, customer list, and core and developed technology, totaling $9.9 million, are being amortized using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of two to five
years. In accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, this initial allocation may be adjusted in future quarters as valuations of certain accounts, including inventory and accrued
liabilities, are finalized.

In
each of the three quarters immediately prior to the acquisition, Aseco reported net sales comparable to ours, ranging from $4.7 million to $5.7 million. Their gross
margins ranged from approximately 40%
to 43%, compared to approximately 45% to 49% for us. Selling, general and administrative expenses for Aseco ranged from approximately 29% to 34% of net sales, compared to approximately 37% to 39% for
us, and research and development expenses ranged from approximately 15% to 18% of net sales, compared to approximately 12% to 15% for us.

In
Aseco's most recent fiscal year ended March 28, 1999, Aseco reported net sales of $19.2 million and a net loss of $13.7 million. The net loss included
$2.2 million in charges related to the closing of its operations based in England and the discontinuation of several mature product models, a $5.0 million write-down of
excess inventory and approximately $1.2 million of various restructuring related charges.

Prior
to inclusion of other considerations discussed below, we expect that as we combine our operations with Aseco, our revenue base should approximately double. We believe that we
will be able to sustain existing customers of Aseco and will have opportunities for incremental sales through introduction of our products to Aseco customers and vice versa. The termination of Aseco's
relationship as a distributor for a foreign manufacturer is expected to allow improvement in gross margins in the latter part of 2000 as compared to our first three months of 2000. Our selling,
general and administrative expenses are expected to decrease as a percentage of net sales, as we blend the businesses and eliminate redundant costs. Research and development expense is expected to
initially increase as a percentage of net sales, as we complete development efforts underway at Aseco at the time of the acquisition, and accelerate some of our development projects. We will also
continue to evaluate opportunities for reduction in operating and manufacturing expense through consolidation of duplicate processes of the two companies. Aseco is headquartered in a 61,000 square
foot facility in Marlborough, Massachusetts, with approximately 100 employees.

Results of Operations for the Three Months Ended April 1, 2000 and March 27, 1999

Net sales for the three months ended April 1, 2000, increased $8.1 million or 201.9% to $12.2 million compared to $4.0 million for
the comparable period ended March 27, 1999. Sales of Aseco products accounted for approximately $6.2 million of the sales increase. Sales and refurbishments of our more mature products,
such as the MCT 4610 handlers, MCT 3600 handlers and the MCT 2000 testers, increased by $1.5 million over the same period a year ago. Increased sales of mature products over the prior year's
period is attributed to customers' increased capacity requirements associated with the improvement in the semiconductor market. Due to the inclusion of Aseco sales for the first time, sales of our
newer products, the MCT 5100, MCT 7632 and Tapestry handling systems and automation software, decreased to approximately 21% of total net sales in the current period compared to approximately 65% in
the prior year's period.

Gross
profit for the first three months of 2000 increased by $3.9 million to $5.9 million, or 48.6% of net sales, from $2.0 million, or 49.6% of net sales, for
the comparable period in the prior year. The decrease in gross margin in the current year period resulted from the inclusion of the lower margin Aseco products, partially offset by increased margins
on MCT products due to changes in product mix.

Selling,
general and administrative expense in the first three months of 2000 was $3.5 million, or 28.7% of sales, compared to $1.4 million, or 35.2% of sales for the
comparable period in 1999. The addition of the Aseco operations accounted for approximately $1.1 million of the increase, with

10

---

increased direct selling costs related to increased sales revenues contributing $0.5 million of the increase. The remainder primarily related to increased personnel and travel expenses to
support the sales growth during. The decrease in selling, general and administrative expense as a percentage of net sales in the current year is primarily attributed to the disproportionately lower
additional selling, general and administrative expense incurred versus the corresponding additional net sales of Aseco since the acquisition date, due to inclusion of only two months of Aseco's
results for the period. Accordingly, we expect selling, general and administrative expense to increase in subsequent quarters when the revenues and expenses of Aseco for the entire period are
included.

Research
and development expense for the first three months of 2000 was $1.9 million, or 15.4% of net sales, compared to $0.7 million, or 17.6% of net sales in the
previous year. The acquisition of Aseco accounted for approximately $0.7 million of the increase in the current year. The remainder of the increase, of which $0.3 million was increased
personnel and contract labor costs, resulted from increased spending requirements for research and development projects initiated during the current year's quarter. These initiatives resulted in the
introduction of several new products in May 2000.

The
decrease as a percentage of net sales in the current year is primarily attributed to the disproportionately lower additional research and development expense incurred versus the
corresponding additional revenues of Aseco since the acquisition date, due to inclusion of two months of Aseco's results for the period. Accordingly, we expect research and development expense to
increase in subsequent quarters when the revenues and expenses of Aseco for the entire period are included.

Amortization
expense totaled $0.8 million, or 6.4% of sales, during the three months ended April 1, 2000, versus $0 in the prior year, and is primarily attributed to the
intangible assets and goodwill generated by the acquisition of Aseco.

Interest
income for the first quarter of 2000 was $21,000 compared to $19,000 in the previous year's quarter. Interest expense totaled $38,000 in the current year's quarter, compared
to $1,000 for the comparable period in th prior year. The increase in interest expense is attributed to increased borrowings under the lines of credit during the current year.

Net
loss for the quarter ended April 1, 2000 was $266,000 or $0.03 per share, as compared to a net loss of $125,000, or $0.02 per share in the prior year's period.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

At April 1, 2000, we had cash and cash equivalents of $1.6 million, compared to $1.0 million at December 31, 1999. The current
ratio was 1.8 and working capital totaled $10.6 million at April 1, 2000, compared to 3.1 and $6.4 million, respectively, at December 31, 1999.

We
used $0.7 million of cash in operations in the quarter ended April 1, 2000, versus $0.6 million in the comparable period in 1999. Increases in accounts
receivable and inventories to support the increased revenues were the primary uses of cash in both periods.

Capital
expenditures totaled $20,000 during the quarter ended April 1, 2000, and $26,000 in the quarter ended March 27, 1999. Capital purchases in both periods have been
primarily for computer equipment. We used $0.4 million of cash during the quarter ended April 1, 2000 for acquisition expenses for the acquisition of Aseco.

We
received cash from financing activities of $1.7 million during the quarter ended April 1, 2000, compared to cash we used of $12,000 in the comparable quarter last
year. Advances on our line of credit to support our operations contributed $0.9 million, and we received proceeds of $0.8 million from the issuance of common stock for exercise of stock
options during the current year quarter.

At
April 1, 2000, we maintained two separate secured lines of credit at two separate banks; one for $5.0 million and the other for $3.0 million. Borrowings on the
$5.0 million line, which was unused at

11

---

April 1, 2000 and December 31, 1999, accrue interest at 1.5% over the bank's prime rate, which was 9.0% at April 1, 2000, for a borrowing rate of 10.5%. The amount available for
borrowing on the line is calculated as a percentage of our eligible accounts receivable and inventory, excluding Aseco, and amounted to approximately $3.5 million at April 1, 2000.

Borrowings
on the $3 million line, which totaled $2.7 million at April 1, 2000, accrue interest at 1.5% over the bank's prime rate, which was of 9.0% at
April 1, 2000, for a borrowing rate of 10.5%. The amount available for borrowing is calculated as a percentage of eligible accounts receivable and inventory of Aseco, and amounted to
$2.9 million at April 1, 2000. As a result of purchase accounting adjustments related to the acquisition of Aseco, we were in default of certain financial covenants of the line of credit
related to tangible net worth at April 1, 2000. The bank has waived noncompliance with these covenants until September 30, 2000. We intend to negotiate new financial covenants on the
line of credit. However, we cannot assure you that we will be successful in negotiating such financial covenants.

Our
anticipated capital needs for the next twelve months are expected to be less than $1.0 million and concentrated in development of additional products and upgrading our
management information systems. We believe that cash and cash equivalents on hand at April 1, 2000, and funds available through our bank lines of credit are sufficient to finance our continuing
operations at the least the next twelve months, but that one or more additional business acquisitions or unforeseen changes in market conditions could cause us to seek additional financing sooner. We
believe that we will be able to raise additional capital and/or negotiate an increase to one or both of our bank lines of credit at terms acceptable to us if required, but no assurance can be made
that such financing will be available if needed. We may acquire other companies, product lines or technologies that are complementary to our business and our working capital needs may change as a
result of such acquisitions.

QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

The vast majority of our transactions are denominated in U.S. dollars; as such, fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates have historically had little
impact on us. Inflation has not been a significant factor in our operations in any of the periods presented, and it is not expected to affect operations in the future. Our bank line of credit carries
a variable interest rate. At April 1, 2000, we had approximately $2.7 million outstanding on our lines of credit, at an interest rate of 10.5%. An increase in the interest rates could
expose us to market risk in the event we are continue to borrow under the line to finance our operations in the future. At April 1, 2000, all of our outstanding long-term debt
carries interest at a fixed rate. There is no material market risk relating to our bank lines or long-term debt.

IMPACT OF ACCOUNTING STANDARDS

SFAS No. 133, "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities"Issued in June 1998, SFAS
No. 133 which establishes a new model for accounting for derivatives and hedging activities and supersedes and amends a number of existing accounting standards. SFAS No. 133 requires
that all derivatives be recognized in the balance sheet at their fair market value, and the corresponding derivative gains or losses be either reported in the statement of operations or as a deferred
item depending on the type of hedge relationship that exists with respect to such derivative. We have not yet completed an assessment of the impact of adopting the provisions of SFAS No. 133 on
our financial statements. The standard is effective for us in 2001.

Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 101Revenue Recognition in Financial Statements (SAB 101)In
December 1999, the Securities and Exchange Commission staff issued SAB 101, which, among other things, establishes the SEC's interpretation that if uncertainty exists about customer acceptance
of a product, revenue should not be recognized until acceptance occurs. Customer acceptance provisions

12

---

may be included in a contract to enforce a customer's right to (1) test the delivered product, (2) require the seller to perform additional services subsequent to delivery of an initial
product or performance of an initial service, such as a seller is required to install or activate delivered equipment, or (3) identify other work necessary to be done before accepting the
product. The SEC presumes that such contractual customer acceptance provisions are substantive, bargained-for terms of an arrangement. Accordingly, when such contractual customer
acceptance provisions exist, the SEC generally believes that the seller should not recognize revenue until customer acceptance occurs or the acceptance provisions lapse.

A
seller should substantially complete or fulfill the terms specified in the arrangement in order for delivery or performance to have occurred. When applying the substantially
complete notion, the SEC believes that only inconsequential or perfunctory actions may remain incomplete such that the failure to complete the actions would not result in the customer receiving a
refund or rejecting the delivered products or services performed to date. In addition, the seller should have a demonstrated history of completing the remaining tasks in a timely manner and reliably
estimating the remaining costs. If revenue is recognized upon substantial completion of the arrangement, all remaining costs of performance or delivery should be accrued.

Consistent
with industry standards, we have historically recognized revenue at product shipment, unless acceptance criteria were significant. The SEC's interpretation, as explained
above, will create a deferral of revenue recognition until product acceptance occurs.

On
March 24, 2000, the SEC deferred implementation of SAB 101 until the second calendar quarter of 2000, and on June 26, 2000 implementation was further deferred until
the fourth quarter of calendar 2000.

We
are continuing to evaluate the potential impact of SAB 101 on our revenue recognition policy. We believe that the SEC is continuing to study the impact of SAB 101 on revenue
recognition. We have not completed our evaluation of the impact of SAB 101; however, we expect it to have a material impact on our financial statements in its current form.

PART II.  OTHER INFORMATION

ITEM 5.  OTHER INFORMATION

On January 31, 2000, we completed the acquisition of Aseco Corporation, a Massachusetts-based manufacturer of singulated handling equipment for the
back-end of the semiconductor manufacturing process. The acquisition was structured as a stock-for-stock purchase and Aseco is now a wholly-owned subsidiary of MCT.
The purchase price totaled $24.0 million, consisting of 2.9 million shares of our common stock valued at $22.5 million issued to former Aseco shareholders and $1.5 million
of acquisition-related costs.

The
acquisition was accounted for using the purchase method of accounting. The results of operations of Aseco are included in our consolidated financial statements beginning
January 31, 2000. The purchase price has been allocated based on the estimated fair values of net assets acquired at the date of acquisition. The excess of purchase price over net assets
acquired, amounting to $9.6 million, has been preliminarily allocated to goodwill, and is being amortized using a straight line method over the estimated useful life of five years. Other
intangible assets, including established workforce, customer list, and core and developed technology, totaling $9.9 million are being amortized using the straight-line method over
the estimated useful lives of two to five years. In accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, this initial allocation may be adjusted in future quarters as valuations of certain
accounts, including inventory and accrued liabilities are finalized.
