              NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                                  (UNAUDITED)


                               SEPTEMBER 30, 1996


NOTE A - BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have
been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for
interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and
Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the
information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles
for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all
adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for
a fair presentation have been included. Operating results for the three-month
period ended September 30, 1996 are not necessarily indicative of the results
that may be expected for the fiscal year ended June 30, 1997. For further
information, refer to the financial statements and footnotes thereto included
in the DualStar Technologies Corporation and Subsidiaries' annual report for
the fiscal year ended June 30, 1996.

NOTE B - MORTGAGE PAYABLE

In August 1996, the Company acquired real property located in Long Island City,
New York for the purpose of centralizing and consolidating its subsidiaries
operations. The cost of the real property was approximately $1,109,000 of which
$900,000 was financed by a ten-year mortgage loan. The mortgage bears interest
at a fixed rate of 9.25% per annum for the first five years and then, for the
last five years, a fixed rate per annum equal to 1% above the Prime Rate in
effect thereof. The mortgage includes a final balloon payment in the amount of
$453,750 which is due on August 1, 2006.

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

General

This Report contains forward-looking statements concerning the Company. Such
statements are subject to certain risks and uncertainties, including, but not
limited to, general economic conditions in the New York Tri-State area,
acceptance by customers of new services, as well as services previously
provided by the Company, product liability and other litigation, and the impact
of inflation and current labor conditions. Readers are urged to carefully
review and consider the various disclosures made by the Company which attempt
to advise interested parties of the factors affecting the Company's business,
including disclosures in this Report as well as the Company's future periodic
reports on Forms 10-K, 10-Q and 8-K filed with the Securities Exchange
Commission.

Liquidity and Sources of Capital

Cash used by operations was $578,000 for the three-month period ended September
30, 1996 as compared to cash provided by operations of $1,782,000 in the
comparable period in 1995. DualStar Technologies Corporation and Subsidiaries'
(the "Company") working capital at September 30, 1996 decreased by $456,000
from June 30, 1996. The decrease was due primarily to capital expenditures
associated with the purchase and refurbishment of new corporate headquarters.
The Company believes cash on hand and cash from future operations should be
sufficient to cover current operations; however, additional working capital may
be needed for future expansion. There can be no assurance that the Company will
be able to obtain such capital on terms satisfactory to it.

Results of Operations

Contract revenues increased 11.4% in the three-month period ended September 30,
1996 to $16.7 million, up approximately $1,705,000 from the comparable period
in 1995. The increase was due primarily to the revenue generated by the
Company's new subsidiaries.

Gross profit increased approximately $320,000 or 21.1% in the three-month
period ended September 30, 1996. In addition, the gross profit margins were
11.0% and 10.1% for the three month periods ended September 30, 1996 and 1995,
respectively. The increase was attributable primarily to the higher gross
profit margins of certain emerging businesses of the Company's new
subsidiaries.

General and administrative expenses increased $219,000 or 12.9% in the
three-month period ended September 30, 1996, as compared to the same period in
1995. The increase was due primarily to the continued growth of the Company's
new subsidiaries.

Net loss was approximately $44,000 in the three-month period ended September
30, 1996 as compared to a net loss of $96,000 in the comparable period in 1995.
The net loss for the three-month period ended September 30, 1996 was
attributable primarily to all the above factors.
