                                     PART I

ITEM 1.    BUSINESS.

GENERAL

         The Company (for purposes of this discussion, the Company includes the
combined operations of ErgoBilt, Inc.  and BodyBilt Seating, Inc.) is a
developer, manufacturer and marketer of customized, high-end ergonomic products
that re-engineer the workplace and the home office by scientifically minimizing
the physical stress imposed upon the human body. Its current product line
primarily consists of four series of premium-priced, ergonomic office chairs,
marketed under the BodyBilt(R) tradename, which can be customized through
proprietary modular designs to meet the needs of each customer.

         In February and March of 1997 the Company issued 1,800,000 shares of
its common stock in its initial public offering for net cash proceeds of
approximately $10.7 million and acquired BodyBilt Seating, Inc. ("BodyBilt"),
which has manufactured ergonomic office chairs since 1988, for $17.6 million in
cash and stock.  This acquisition was effected through a merger (the "Merger")
of BodyBilt into a subsidiary of the Company and was accounted for as a
purchase.  Prior to these events the Company was engaged in providing
advertising and marketing services to BodyBilt.

                                      1
<PAGE>   4
         BodyBilt(R) chairs are based on NASA research conducted during its
SkyLab missions that identified the least stressful body position for
astronauts during extended missions in space. BodyBilt(R) chairs have a
10-Point Posture Control --  system that allows each individual user to assume
a posture similar to the stress-free posture of astronauts in space.

         The Company is also the licensee of certain hardware and software for
voice-to-text transcription and data capture which are sold under the name
"IMPACTwriter".  This technology significantly reduces the number of keystrokes
needed for transcription.

         MARKET TRENDS.  The Company believes that certain trends in the work
environment have expanded the market opportunity for ergonomic office products.
First, increased reliance on the personal computer has resulted in more workers
spending more time in a constantly seated position. A result has been a
significant increase in the number of work-related employee injury claims and
lost employee time from (i) back and upper extremity injuries and (ii)
repetitive stress injuries or "RSI," including carpal tunnel syndrome. Second,
OSHA, has required employers to provide safe work environments, which may
include the acquisition of ergonomic office products. As a result, the Company
believes that employers are seeking ways to alleviate injuries related to body
stress in the workplace. Third, the emergence of the corporate "telecommuter"
has produced significant growth in the number of home offices, now estimated at
41.1 million in the United States alone.

         PRODUCTS.  In the mid-1970s, NASA collected detailed anthropometric
data during successive SkyLab missions, including in-depth studies on posture.
According to data published in NASA's Anthropometric Source Book, NASA
discovered that when the body is placed in the weightless, or zero-gravity
environment of space, it assumes a specific posture that is substantially
different from a traditional upright or seated posture. The body assumes a
trunk-to-thigh angle of 128 degrees, placing the musculoskeletal system in its
most relaxed state. This discovery led to the design of the BodyBilt(R) chair
with the 10-Point Posture Control --  system. This system allows each
individual user to emulate a similar relaxed, stress-free posture while at
work, providing a high degree of personal comfort and helping to alleviate
problems associated with back and repetitive stress injuries. Corporate
comparative tests based on comfort conducted by the Safety Department of
Lockheed Austin Division ("LAD") and the Austin, Texas Service Center of the
Internal Revenue Service ("IRS-Austin") have documented the effectiveness of
the BodyBilt(R) chair in alleviating worker discomfort and increasing
productivity. In its 1991 study, LAD concluded that the use of ergonomic
equipment (chairs and workstations) resulted in a 12% increase in productivity
and improved employee morale. The LAD study noted that the highest ranked piece
of equipment for improving comfort and job performance was the ergonomic chair.
This study confirmed the findings of an earlier study conducted by the
IRS-Austin that demonstrated an 8% increase in productivity from using an
ergonomic chair alone. The ergonomic chairs used in both studies were
BodyBilt(R) chairs.

         BodyBilt(R) chairs' contoured seats are made with multi-densities of
foam strategically placed to distribute the user's body weight over a greater
surface area. Additionally, the angle between the back rest and the seat
structure can be adjusted to approximate the posture that the





                                       2
<PAGE>   5
body assumes naturally in the gravity-free environment of space. Five different
seat designs provide additional comfort for customers of various sizes and
shapes. The back rests also contain multi-densities of strategically placed
foam and are shaped to provide maximum support in the lumbar area. The personal
Air Lumbar --  pump inflates the lumbar area, allowing the back rest to conform
even more closely to the unique curvature of each person's back. The eight
different arms available with all BodyBilt(R) chairs are designed for different
workplace tasks and offer customers more choices to reduce neck and shoulder
strain. Available armrests include the Linear Tracking Arm --  and Pivot Arm --
for specialized applications, including medical, micro-surgical and desk-top
needs. The 3-Way Arm mechanism allows for proper arm support which can help the
user avoid repetitive stress injuries.

         The Company manufactures BodyBilt(R) chairs designed for
non-managerial task workers (J Task Series), managerial task workers (J-Manager
Series), managers and executives (K Series) and "Big & Tall" workers (S
Series). The S Series chairs feature a reinforced seat which is 23.5% larger
than the average seat. These chairs are capable of supporting persons weighing
up to 350 pounds. The Company's collection of BodyBilt(R) chairs meets and
often exceeds the current ergonomic standards in seating design, from American
National Standards Institute -- Human Factors Society 100-88 to those proposed
by OSHA.

         The modular design of the BodyBilt(R) chairs allows each customer to
create a custom chair, selecting from more than 1,600 possible combinations of
arms, backrests, headrests, seats and bases, in addition to style and fabric
choices. The Company has been able to provide this myriad of choices to the
customer without maintaining excessive inventory levels as a result of its use
of interchangeable parts. The Company generally can deliver a customized
BodyBilt(R) chair to the customer in less than four weeks, about one-half the
time required by large manufacturers. The chairs require minimal assembly by
the customer and are delivered with a computer diskette that provides each
customer with a visual explanation of how to adjust the chair for maximum
comfort.

         BodyBilt(R) chairs are warranted against defects in materials or work
quality as follows: seven years  on the base, the steel structure of the
mechanism and the backrest post; five years  on the casters, clutch plates,
torsion springs, handles, seat and backrest plastic structure, backrest height
adjuster, foam, polyurethane arm pads, pneumatic height cylinder, armrest
structure and all welds; and two years  on the Air Lumbar --  pillow.

         Although the Company does not have a stated return policy, the Company
endeavors to minimize product returns by offering prompt, on-site customer
service and repair. BodyBilt(R) chairs' interchangeable components permit easy
replacement of worn or defective components. Currently, the Company utilizes
its direct sales force, independent sales representatives and dealers to
perform on-site service and warranty repairs. Product returns to date have been
negligible.

         CUSTOMERS.  The Company had a diversified customer base of over 1,500
accounts during the year ending December 31, 1996. No single customer accounted
for more than 10% of the Company's sales for the 12-month period ended December
31, 1996. The Company's largest





                                       3
<PAGE>   6
customers include Hewlett Packard, Boeing Commercial Aircraft Company and Texas
Instruments, Inc.

         MARKETING, SALES AND DISTRIBUTION.  The Company primarily markets and
sells its chairs to corporate ergonomists and health, human services and safety
managers in Fortune 1000 companies. The chairs are sold mostly for "special
use" applications, where employees have requested a non-standard chair to
reduce or alleviate existing back problems or repetitive stress injuries. The
sales process usually involves a detailed technical explanation of how the
chairs function and documentation of the chairs' effectiveness in alleviating
and/or preventing back problems and repetitive stress injuries. This process
may also involve a comparative test of several ergonomic chairs conducted by
the customer where employees complaining of work-related discomfort are asked
to evaluate the chairs on a wide range of factors.  Termed "sit-offs" by the
trade, these tests provide a practical and useful means of measuring the
chair's effectiveness in relieving individual discomfort. The typical
BodyBilt(R) chair order is one to three chairs because BodyBilt(R) chairs are
purchased for "special-use" purposes. The Company believes that it has an
advantage over larger competitors whose culture and structure are not adapted
to accommodate the unique approach required to sell "special-use" ergonomic
chairs effectively. Historically, the vast majority of the Company's sales have
been to corporate customers, but a growing percentage of the Company's sales
have been made through retail distribution directly to end users.

         The Company believes it has achieved a high level of brand identity
and consumer awareness not typically found in the office furniture industry.
BodyBilt(R) chairs have received national publicity in newspapers, magazines
and television, including the New York Times , Wall Street Journal , People
magazine, Entertainment Tonight, The CBS Morning Show and The Tonight Show. The
Company also exhibits its products at numerous ergonomic, computer and office
furniture industry trade shows. In both 1995 and 1996, the Company spent in
excess of $1.0 million on advertising, promotional materials and trade shows.

         The Company's products are marketed by its direct sales force of 17
persons and 21 independent sales representatives and its sales are channeled
through a network of over 550 dealers. Dealers typically purchase the product
at a discount from retail and resell the product at a higher price.

         MANUFACTURING AND ASSEMBLY.  The Company normally operates one shift,
five days per week, at its manufacturing and assembly facility located in
Navasota, Texas. A second shift is added to meet demand in peak periods,
generally in the fourth quarter when customers spend the remainder of their
annual capital budgets. Approximately 32,000 chairs were manufactured and
assembled during for the 12-month period ended December 31, 1996. The Company
believes that the maximum capacity of this facility is approximately 100,000
chairs per year and that its future production requirements can therefore be
satisfied with routine additional capital investment, which is not expected to
be substantial.

         At its Navasota facility, the Company vacuum-forms seats and backs and
cuts and punches holes in various steel supports for the back rests, front
wings, arms-capable brackets and





                                       4
<PAGE>   7
vertical/horizontal braces. The Company then assembles the chairs and applies
coverings. The Company manufactures BodyBilt(R) chairs primarily to meet
specific customer orders. A significant portion of finished chairs are shipped
within 24 hours after the manufacturing process is complete.

         The Company's manufacturing goals are to: (i) strive to improve
quality; (ii) seek the best values in purchasing; (iii) uphold stringent zero
defect quality controls; and (iv) deliver orders promptly.

         SUPPLIERS.  The Company uses a variety of materials in its
manufacturing, including plastic, foam, steel and various coverings. Certain
components of BodyBilt(R) chairs, principally the base mechanism, are made by
other manufacturers to the Company's specifications. The Company is dependent
upon its suppliers for timely delivery and product quality. While the Company's
strategy is to maintain multiple sources of supply, the Company's largest
supplier, Leggett & Platt, Inc., is currently the only source of a key
component for BodyBilt(R) chairs. While the Company has not had any adverse
experience with this supplier, the Company does not have binding supply
contract with Leggett & Platt, Inc. Until alternative supply sources are
identified, the Company could be subject to pricing risks, delivery delays and
quality control problems, which could have a material adverse effect on its
results of operations.

         PATENTS AND TRADEMARKS.  The Company has applied to register the
"ErgoBilt" trademark and has registered "BodyBilt" in the United States. The
Company believes that protection of this trademark is important because of
customer association of the trademark with BodyBilt(R) chairs. The Company also
has two patents pending which relate to its current arm design and one patent
pending which relates to its seat design.  The Company's success and its
ability to compete are dependent in part upon its proprietary technology.
While the Company relies on patent, trademark, trade secret and copyright laws
to protect its technology, the Company believes that factors such as the
technological and creative skills of its personnel, new product developments,
frequent product enhancements, name recognition and reliable product
maintenance are more essential to establishing and maintaining a technology
leadership position. There can be no assurance that others will not develop
technologies that are similar or superior to the Company's technology.

         The seat design used in certain BodyBilt(R) chairs, which accounted
for sales of approximately $1.2 million and $1.8 million for the years ended
December 31, 1995 and 1996, respectively, is derived from a design patented by
Dr.  Jerome Congleton (the "Congleton Patent"). Dr. Congleton granted a license
to manufacture seats using the Congleton Patent to both BodyBilt and Ergonomic
Chairs, Inc., predecessor in interest to Neutral Posture Ergonomics, Inc.
("NPE").  Under the terms of this license agreement and related agreements, if
more than 50% of the outstanding capital stock of BodyBilt is transferred, its
license to manufacture chairs under the Congleton Patent will terminate.
Accordingly, as a result of the Merger, the Company no longer holds a license
of the Congleton Patent.  However, an agreement executed in connection with a
1991 settlement of litigation between BodyBilt, NPE and Dr. Congleton provides
that a successor to BodyBilt has the right to manufacture, market, distribute
and sell commercial, industrial and laboratory chairs using the Congleton
Patent, although such successor may not advertise its use of the Congleton
Patent.  Recently, the Company and its counsel received correspondence from NPE





                                       5
<PAGE>   8
and Dr. Congleton asserting that a license is required for the Company to
continue to manufacture seats using the Congleton patent.  However, based upon
the advice of counsel, the Company believes that under the 1991 settlement, no
such license is necessary. Accordingly, the Company believes that termination
of its license of the Congleton Patent upon consummation of the Merger will
have no material impact on the Company's business. NPE is owned and controlled
in part by Drew Congleton's mother and sister. Dr. Congleton is the father of
Drew Congleton, and Drew is a director of the Company and is an officer of
BodyBilt. Dr. Congleton is a consultant to NPE and has no association with the
Company.

         LICENSE.  On February 18, 1997, BodyBilt, entered into a non-exclusive
license agreement with Computer Translation Systems & Support, Inc. (CTSS),
Lawrence West Melquiond and Jerold P. Lefler.  The terms of the agreement allow
BodyBilt the right, among other things, to manufacture, market and sell a
state-of-the-art computer and keyboard system which significantly reduces the
number of keystrokes (every keystroke on a CTSS keyboard is equal to 4-4.5
strokes on a standard keyboard) needed for direct voice-to-text transcription
and data capture services. CTSS products are sold under the name
"IMPACTwriter".  CTSS has assigned certain trademarks to BodyBilt.

         The input speeds of the IMPACTwriter are three to five times faster
than a traditional typist using a standard keyboard.  This increased
productivity translates into lower expenses for the employer, and the ergonomic
benefit of reduced keystrokes should help decrease the instances of repetitive
stress injuries.  The ergonomic benefits offered by the IMPACTwriter is an
excellent fit with ErgoBilt's overall strategy for growth.

         The Company paid $19,000 upon execution of the license agreement and
will pay a 5% royalty on gross revenue received and collected from the sales of
the Impactwriter.  The Company has agreed to use its best efforts to sell at
least 250 units within 60 days after the signing of this agreement. The license
granted is perpetual although it can be terminated by mutual written consent of
the licensors and the licensees.

         COMPETITION.  The Company faces significant competition in the office
furniture market. BodyBilt(R) chairs compete on the basis of quality, health
benefits, comfort, service, price, design and durability. Existing and future
competitors within the office furniture industry, including Herman Miller,
Inc., Steelcase Design Partnership and Haworth Group, Inc., offer or will offer
ergonomic products. Many of these competitors have much greater financial and
other resources, and offer a broader product line, than the Company. By
targeting its marketing efforts to corporate ergonomists and health, human
services and safety managers rather than traditional facilities or purchasing
managers, the Company has been able to establish a market niche in which the
Company believes it is difficult for large office furniture producers to
compete effectively. There is also competition from numerous smaller ergonomic
furniture companies. The Company believes, however, that smaller competitors
are often constrained by a lack of capital, access to distribution channels,
manufacturing capabilities and/or management expertise.

         The Company believes that the following aspects of its marketing,
sales, distribution and customer service are its competitive strengths: (i) the
modular design and interchangeable components of BodyBilt(R) chairs permit
customization to each worker's specifications, and the chairs can be adjusted
to accommodate changing individual needs; (ii) manufacturing, sales and
customer service are equipped to handle small orders, the traditional mainstay
of the ergonomic business; (iii) orders generally are processed, manufactured
and delivered in four weeks, approximately half the time normally required by
large companies; and (iv) using interchangeable components facilitates on-site
service and repair.

         GOVERNMENT REGULATION.  The Company's operations must meet federal,
state and local regulatory standards in the areas of safety, health and
environmental pollution controls. Historically, those standards have not had
any material adverse effect on the Company's sales or operations. The Company
believes that its Navasota facility is in compliance in all material respects
with applicable federal, state and local laws and regulations relating to
safety, health and the environment. The Company cannot at this time estimate
the impact of any new standards which may be applicable to the Company's
operations or the costs of compliance with such standards.

         RECENT DEVELOPMENTS.  The Company has entered into a non-binding
letter of intent to purchase certain intellectual property from Metamorphosis
Design & Development, Inc. ("Metamorphosis"), a company that owns the rights to
certain design patents, including patents relating to an ergonomic workcenter,
and an assignment of licensing fees relating to this workcenter of
approximately $15,000 per month. The Company anticipates that this intellectual
property will enable the Company to broaden its product line. The Company will
not acquire any manufacturing facilities, employees or other business assets
from Metamorphosis. If this purchase is consummated, the Company would pay
Metamorphosis up to $500,000 in cash and issue warrants to purchase 150,000
shares of Common Stock exercisable at the closing price on the date of the
acquisition. The Company has agreed to pay Metamorphosis additional cash and/or
securities aggregating up to $15 million if after-tax earnings derived from the
acquired intellectual property meet certain targets over a three-year period
commencing on the closing date and/or certain revenue targets are met and
certain other events occur within the first five years immediately following
the closing date. The acquisition of this intellectual property is subject to
the completion of satisfactory due diligence and other conditions. There can be
no assurance that a definitive agreement will be executed or that this
acquisition will be consummated.

BACKLOG

         The company does not have a significant backlog of orders and does not
consider backlog to be material to its business.

                       SELECTED PRO FORMA FINANCIAL DATA

         The following unaudited pro forma combined condensed statement of
income for the year ended December 31, 1996 adjusts the historical results of
BodyBilt (considered the predecessor to the Company) to give effect to (i) the
Merger as if it had been consummated at January 1, 1996; (ii) the amortization
of approximately $13.2 million of goodwill that was created as a result of the
acquisition of BodyBilt by the Company pursuant to purchase accounting; (iii)
the income tax effect resulting from the conversion of BodyBilt from an S
corporation to a C corporation; and (iv) eliminate transactions between
ErgoBilt and BodyBilt.  The computation of pro forma shares outstanding is
based on 4,256,000 weighted average shares of Common Stock outstanding and
1,278,000 shares issued at an initial public offering price of $7.00 per share
(after deducting the underwriting discount and the Representatives'
non-accountable expense allowance) to (i) fund





                                       11
<PAGE>   14
payments of $7.2 million to BodyBilt Shareholders and (ii) repay approximately
$850,000 of indebtedness. The computation of pro forma shares outstanding
excludes an additional 522,000 shares sold in the offering.  The Company
believes that a 40-year amortization period is appropriate for goodwill, since
BodyBilt is a manufacturer of office furniture that is expected to have value
to the Company beyond 40 years. The Merger will be accounted for as a purchase
with ErgoBilt as the acquirer. The unaudited pro forma combined condensed
statement of income should be read in conjunction with the historical financial
statements of the Company and BodyBilt and the notes thereto included elsewhere
in this Form 10-K and are not necessarily indicative of the results of
operations that might have occurred if the Merger had not taken place on the
dates indicated or of the Company's results of operations for any future
period.

ITEM 7.  MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
RESULTS OF
              OPERATIONS.

         The operations of ErgoBilt are discussed under the heading "ErgoBilt"
below. The remainder of Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial
Condition and Results of Operations relates to the operations of BodyBilt.
Following the Merger, BodyBilt became the operating company, and ErgoBilt
became the parent company. ErgoBilt's assets and results of operations are not
significant to the combined operations on a going-forward basis. The following
discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with the information set
forth under "Selected Financial Data" and the financial statements of ErgoBilt
and BodyBilt and the accompanying notes thereto included elsewhere in this Form
10-K.

ERGOBILT

         Since its incorporation in 1995, ErgoBilt's operations have consisted
primarily of providing advertising and marketing activities to BodyBilt,
conducting activities necessary to complete the Merger and the sale of the
shares of Common Stock offered on January 31, 1997, and conducting other
activities necessary to plan for the operations and activities of ErgoBilt and
BodyBilt subsequent to the Merger. Operating income for the period from June
12, 1995 to December 31, 1995 was $57,000. For the year ended December 31,
1996, ErgoBilt had a net loss from operations of $314,000. The loss was
attributable to increased compensation related to management employed in
contemplation of the Merger, expenses accrued for consulting services related
to the Merger and the offering rendered by a company wholly- owned by Mark
McMillan, the President of BodyBilt, and other costs of the Merger and
offering.

BODYBILT

         GENERAL.  BodyBilt generates revenue through sales of its products to
corporate customers, dealers and retailers. The majority of BodyBilt's sales
are generated by either BodyBilt's direct sales force or by independent sales
representatives, who are paid a commission for each unit sold. Typically,
BodyBilt's sales are directed through a network of over 550 dealers who acquire
the products at a discount from retail and then resell the products to the
ultimate customer. In certain instances, BodyBilt drop-ships products directly
to the ultimate customer.

         BodyBilt's sales increased at a compound annual growth rate of 41.0%
from 1992 through 1996 and increased 28.6% for the year ended December 31, 1996
as compared to the year ended December 31, 1995.  BodyBilt believes that its
growth has been driven by increasing market acceptance of ergonomics and its
success in (i) providing superior quality products and service; (ii) expanding
its direct sales force; (iii) upgrading the quality of its independent sales
representative firms; and (iv)  educating consumers about the benefits of
ergonomics and the solutions provided by BodyBilt's products.  BodyBilt did not
increase the suggested retail prices of its chairs during this period. From
1992 to December 31, 1996, BodyBilt expanded its direct sales force from four
to 17 individuals while during the same period the number of independent sales
representatives decreased from 22 to 21. There can be no assurance that
BodyBilt's growth will continue at the historic rate in the future.

         Contemporaneously with the closing of the Company's initial public
offering, the Company completed the Merger.  The historical results of
operations through December 31, 1996, do not include the impact of the Merger.
The total consideration paid in connection with the Merger was $17.6 million,
consisting of cash, Common Stock and Series A Preferred Stock. The transaction
was treated as a purchase for accounting purposes and resulted in approximately
$13.2 million of goodwill, which will be amortized over a 40-year period. The
amortization of goodwill associated with the Merger will total approximately
$329,000 annually and will not be deductible for income tax purposes.

</TABLE>

         Comparison of Years Ended December 31, 1995, and 1996.  Sales
increased $3.9 million, or 28.6%, from $13.7 million for the year ended
December 31, 1995, to $17.6 million for the year ended December 31, 1996. Units
sold increased by 6,177, or 24.0%, from 25,759 for the year ended December 31,
1995, to 31,936 for the year ended December 31, 1996.  This sales increase was
attributable to a shift in the mix of products sold to higher-end, more
technologically-equipped chairs, the addition of direct sales personnel,
increased advertising and marketing expenditures and increased acceptance of
the Company's products.

         Gross profit increased $1.8 million or 27.9%, from $6.5 million in the
year ended December 31, 1995 to $8.3 million for the year ended December 31,
1996. As a percentage of sales, gross profit declined from 47.2% in the year
ended December 31, 1995 to 46.9% in the year ended December 31, 1996.  This
decrease in the percentage is a result of expenses related to placing
additional demostration chairs in the field and nominal increase in large chair
orders which carried a lower margin.

         Selling, general and administrative expenses increased by $1.1
million, or 24.6%, from $4.6 million for the year ended December 31, 1995, to
$5.7 million for the year ended December 31, 1996. As a percentage of sales,
selling, general and administrative expense decreased from 33.3% in the year
ended December 31, 1995, to 32.2% in the year ended December 31, 1996.  This
dollar increase was attributable to increases in compensation and commissions
due to the addition of direct sales and customer support personnel, increases
in advertising and promotional expenses and additional depreciation expense.

         Operating income increased by $677,000, or 35.7%, from $1.9 million
for the year ended December 31, 1995, to $2.6 million for the year ended
December 31, 1996.

         Comparison of Years Ended December 31, 1994, and 1995.  Sales
increased $4.5 million, or 48.8%, from $9.2 million for the year ended December
31, 1994, to $13.7 million for the year ended December 31, 1995. Units sold
increased by 6,813, or 36.0%, from 18,946 for the year ended December 31, 1994,
to 25,759 for the year ended December 31, 1995. This increase was the result of
the addition of direct sales personnel, an increase in the number of corporate
accounts and increased acceptance of the Company's products.

         Gross profit increased $2,054,000 or 46.7%, from $4,400,000 in the
year ended December 31, 1994 to $6,454,000 for the year ended December 31,
1995. As a percentage of sales, gross profit declined from 47.8% in the year
ended December 31, 1994 to 47.2% in the year ended December 31, 1995. The
decline in gross profit as a percentage in sales was attributable to
enhancements in product quality, resulting in an increase in the cost of
certain components. In addition, sales of lower-margin chairs to certain
corporate and government accounts increased as a percentage of total sales. The
effect of these two factors on the overall gross margin was partially offset by
greater plant utilization.

         Selling, general and administrative expenses increased by $1.3
million, or 39.5%, from $3.3 million for the year ended December 31, 1994, to
$4.6 million for the year ended December 31, 1995. As a percentage of sales,
selling, general and administrative expenses decreased from 35.5% in the year
ended December 31, 1994, to 33.3% in the year ended December 31, 1995. This
dollar increase was attributable to increases in compensation and commissions
as a result of the addition of direct sales and sales support personnel and
increased advertising, literature and other promotional expenses.

         Operating income increased by $765,000, or 67.4%, from $1.1 million
for the year ended December 31, 1994, to $1.9 million for the year ended
December 31, 1995.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

         Cash Flow.  Historically, BodyBilt has satisfied its cash requirements
through profitable operations and borrowings under a bank line of credit
facility. Operating activities provided net cash totaling $734,000, $1.1
million and $1.6 million for 1994, 1995 and 1996, respectively. The primary use
of cash in operating activities has been to fund increases in accounts
receivable and inventories resulting from BodyBilt's rapid growth.

         Investing activities used cash totaling $629,000, $918,000 and
$951,000 during 1994, 1995 and 1996, respectively. Substantially all of the
cash used for investing activities during these periods related to capital
expenditures. BodyBilt anticipates continuing to make capital expenditures in
connection with plant, equipment, software and computer equipment improvements.

         Financing activities used cash totaling $89,000, $80,000 and $719,000,
respectively, during 1994, 1995 and 1996. The primary uses of cash for
financing activities were distributions to the BodyBilt Shareholders of
$333,000, $600,000 and $1.3 million in 1994, 1995 and 1996, respectively. The
distributions in 1994 and 1995 were made primarily to provide the BodyBilt
Shareholders with cash to pay individual tax liabilities related to the net
income of BodyBilt attributed to them as shareholders of an S corporation, and
in 1996 were made based on projected earnings of BodyBilt for the year ended
1996. The primary source of cash for the financing activities during each
period was borrowings under BodyBilt's line of credit.





                                       15

         Asset Management.  BodyBilt typically sells its products and services
on net 30 day terms and seeks to minimize its credit risk by performing credit
checks and conducting its own collection efforts.  BodyBilt had trade accounts
receivable of $1.7 million, $2.5 million and $3.0 million at December 31, 1994,
1995 and 1996 respectively.  The number of days' sales outstanding in trade
accounts receivable were 66 days, 66 days and 63 days respectively, for the
same periods. Bad debt expense as a percentage of total revenue for the same
periods was negligible. BodyBilt maintains no allowance for doubtful accounts.

         BodyBilt attempts to keep its raw materials inventory low to minimize
the risk of obsolescence. BodyBilt also attempts to maintain the minimum level
of such inventory necessary to meet its near term manufacturing requirements by
relying on just-in-time delivery of products from its principal suppliers.
Inventory turnover was 4.9 times, 6.0 times and 5.9 times for 1994, 1995 and
1996 respectively.

         Credit Facilities.  BodyBilt maintains a revolving line of credit
facility with The First National Bank of Bryan (the "Line of Credit").
Borrowings under the Line of Credit are utilized primarily for working capital
to finance inventory and receivables and for distributions to the BodyBilt
Shareholders. Borrowings under the Line of Credit bear interest at a bank's
prime rate per annum. The Line of Credit is secured by a first lien on the
accounts receivable and inventory of BodyBilt and the proceeds of a life
insurance policy insuring the life of BodyBilt's President, Mark McMillan. The
Line of Credit is personally guaranteed by Mark McMillan. At December 31, 1996,
the interest rate on the Line of Credit was 8.25% and total borrowings under
the Line of Credit were $1,350,000. The remaining available credit under the
Line of Credit, subject to borrowing base limitations which are generally
computed as a percentage of various classes of eligible accounts receivable and
qualifying inventory, was $650,000 at December 31, 1996.

         In May 1994, BodyBilt purchased a building and land that was formerly
a large retail facility, in Navasota, Texas. During the summer of 1994,
BodyBilt moved its manufacturing and administrative operations from leased
facilities to the Navasota facility. Since June 1994, this facility has
undergone significant renovations, improvements and equipment additions. The
merger and improvement of this facility was financed through an amortizing bank
loan from The First National Bank of Bryan in the principal amount of $571,000,
currently bearing interest at the bank's prime rate plus 0.75% per annum and
maturing in the year 2000. At December 31, 1996, the interest rate on this loan
was 9.50% and the outstanding principal balance was $438,278.  The loan is
secured by a lien on the facility and by a life insurance policy insuring the
life of Mark McMillan. This loan is personally guaranteed by Mark McMillan.

         At December 31, 1996, BodyBilt also had other term note obligations to
the First National Bank of Bryan aggregating approximately $226,000 the
proceeds of which were used to fund working capital and equipment and vehicle
purchases.

         On September 6, 1996, ErgoBilt obtained a $500,000 loan from Summit
Partners Management Co. ("Summit") to fund the Merger and offering expenses.
The convertible note evidencing this loan (the "Convertible Note") was repaid
in part from the proceeds of the Company's initial public offering and by
conversion into shares of Common Stock at the initial





                                       16
<PAGE>   19
offering price per share (one-half of the principal balance of the loan).  This
loan bears interest at 8.0% per annum and matures on September 6, 1997. The
Convertible Note was secured by a pledge of certain assets of Gerald McMillan.
In connection with the issuance of the Convertible Note, Dr. McMillan sold
34,000 shares of Common Stock to Summit, and the Company agreed to issue to
Summit at the closing of this offering a warrant to acquire up to 51,000 shares
of Common Stock at a price of 120% of the price to public exercisable over a
period of four years commencing one year after issuance. The shares of Common
Stock sold to Summit and the Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the
lender's warrant are subject to certain registration rights.

         INFLATION. The cost of raw materials and component parts, salaries and
manufacturing wages have increased modestly. The increases have not had a
significant effect on BodyBilt's results of operations because of substantially
increasing sales volumes and relatively stable product prices.

         NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS.  Effective January 1, 1996, the Company
adopted SFAS No. 121, "Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and
for Long-Lived Assets to Be Disposed Of." Accordingly, in the event that facts
and circumstances indicate that property and equipment, and intangible or other
assets, may be impaired, an evaluation of recoverability would be performed. If
an evaluation is required, the estimated future cash flows associated with the
asset is compared to the asset's carrying amount to determine if a write-down
to market value was necessary. Adoption of this standard did not have a
material effect on the financial position or results of operations of the
Company.

         As of January 1, 1996, SFAS No. 123, "Accounting for Stock-Based
Compensation," became effective for the Company. SFAS No. 123 permits, but does
not require a fair value-based method of accounting for employee stock option
plans which results in compensation expense recognition when stock options are
granted. As permitted by SFAS no. 123, the Company will provide pro forma
disclosure of net income and earnings per share, as applicable, in the notes to
future annual consolidated financial statements.

ITEM 9.  CHANGES IN AND DISAGREEMENTS WITH ACCOUNTANTS ON ACCOUNTING AND
         FINANCIAL DISCLOSURE.

         Thompson, Derrig & Slovacek PC was succeeded as BodyBilt's auditors on
February 28,1996 by KPMG Peat Marwick LLP.  BodyBilt's decision to change
auditors was approved by BodyBilt's board of Directors. During BodyBilt's two
most recent fiscal years and the interim period preceding the change in
auditors, there were no disagreements between BodyBilt and Thompson, Derrig &
Slovacek PC on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial
statement disclosure or auditing scope or procedure, which, if not resolved to
the satisfaction of Thompson, Derrig & Slovacek PC, would have caused it to
make reference to the subject matter of the disagreement in connection with its
report.  Their report on the financial statements did not contain any adverse
opinion or disclaimer of opinion nor was it qualified or modified as to
uncertainty, audit scope or accounting principles. Subsequent to BodyBilt's
change in auditors there have been no disagreements with accountants on
accounting and financial disclosure.

         There have been no changes in or disagreements by ErgoBilt with its
accountants on accounting and financial disclosure.

                 was merged into ErgoBilt's wholly owned subsidiary, EB
                 Subsidiary, Inc., which was formed for the purposes of the
                 merger.

                          INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT



The Board of Directors and Shareholders
ErgoBilt, Inc.:


We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of ErgoBilt, Inc., as of
December 31, 1995 and 1996, and the related statements of income (loss),
shareholders' equity, and cash flows for the period from June 12, 1995 to
December 31, 1995 and the year ended December 31, 1996.  These financial
statements are the responsibility of the Company's management.  Our
responsibility is to express an opinion on these 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 financial statements referred to above present fairly, in
all material respects, the financial position of ErgoBilt, Inc. as of December
31, 1995 and 1996, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the
period from June 12, 1995 to December 31, 1995 and the year ended December 31,
1996, in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.

                         Notes to Financial Statements

                           December 31, 1995 and 1996


(1)  Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

    (a)  Organization and Operations

         ErgoBilt, Inc. (the Company) was incorporated on June 12, 1995
         pursuant to the laws of the State of Texas as The Chafferton Company,
         Inc.  The Company is engaged in consulting services regarding design
         and advertising trade issues.  See discussion of the Company's merger
         and initial public offering in note 7.

    (b)  Revenue Recognition

         Revenue is recognized as consulting projects are completed as the
         projects are of short duration.

    (c)  Accounts Receivable

         The Company considers accounts receivable to be fully collectible;
         accordingly, no allowance for doubtful accounts is required.

    (d)  Income Taxes

         Deferred income taxes are determined using the asset and liability
         method, under which deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined
         based on differences between financial accounting and tax bases of
         assets and liabilities.  Valuation allowances are established when
         necessary to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be
         realized.  Income tax expense or benefit is the payable or refund for
         the period plus or minus the change during the period in deferred tax
         assets and liabilities.

    (e)  Property and Equipment

         Property and equipment are stated at cost and depreciated using the
         straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the related
         equipment ranging from 5 to 7 years.  Maintenance and repairs are
         charged to operations when incurred.  Replacements and betterments are
         capitalized.

         Effective January 1, 1996, the Company adopted SFAS No. 121,
         Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived
         Assets to Be Disposed Of.  Accordingly, in the event that facts and
         circumstances indicate that property and equipment and intangible or
         other assets, may be impaired, an evaluation of recoverability would
         be performed.  If an evaluation is required, the estimated future cash
         flows associated with the asset are compared to the asset's carrying
         amount to determine if a write-down to market value is necessary.
         Adoption of this statement did not have a material effect on the
         financial position or results of operations of the Company.

                         Notes to Financial Statements





    (f)  Organizational, Merger and Offering Costs

         Organizational costs are amortized over five years.  Offering and
         merger costs are deferred until the transaction is either completed or
         aborted.  Costs related to completed offerings are charged against the
         gross proceeds of the offering.  Costs related to completed mergers
         are included in the cost of the acquired enterprise.  Offering and
         merger costs related to aborted transactions are written off.

    (g)  Fair Market Value of Financial Instruments

         The carrying amount for cash, notes receivable and notes payable is
         not materially different than fair market value because of the short
         maturities of the instruments and/or their respective interest rates.

    (h)  Use of Estimates

         Management of the Company has made a number of estimates and
         assumptions relating to the reporting of assets and liabilities and
         the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities to prepare these
         financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting
         principles.  Actual results could vary from the estimates that were
         used.

(2) Stock Option Plan

    The board of directors and shareholders of the Company have approved the
    ErgoBilt 1996 Stock Option Plan (the Stock Option Plan).  The Stock Option
    Plan authorizes the Company to award 400,000 shares of common stock to be
    used for incentive stock options and nonqualified stock options or
    restricted stock grants, of which no options have been granted at December
    31, 1996.

    As of January 1, 1996, SFAS No. 123, Accounting for Stock-Based
    Compensation, was effective for the Company.  SFAS No. 123 permits, but
    does not require, a fair value-based method of accounting for employee
    stock option plans which results in compensation expense recognition when
    stock options are granted.  As permitted by SFAS No. 123, the Company will
    provide pro forma disclosure of net income and earnings per share, as
    applicable, in the notes to the financial statements.

(3) Stock Split

    The Company affected a 2,770-for-1 stock split in January 1997.  The
    effects of the stock split have been retroactively applied to the financial
    statements.


(4) Related Party Transactions

    At December 31, 1995 and 1996, the Company had amounts due from the
    Company's chairman of $39,313 and $48,325, respectively.  The chairman of
    the Company is also the shareholder of

    another company which provided services to the Company as a subcontractor
    and consultant during 1995.  The total expenses related to these services
    amounted to $49,034.

    The Company has had one primary customer since inception, BodyBilt Seating,
    Inc. (BodyBilt) which was partially owned (37.5%) by the brother of the
    Company's chairman during 1996.  During 1995 and 1996, BodyBilt accounted
    for 100% and 91% of the company's revenues, respectively.  At December 31,
    1995 and 1996, amounts due from BodyBilt comprised 100% of trade accounts
    receivable.  Additionally, the Company purchased $76,555 of goods and
    services from BodyBilt during 1996.  At December 31, 1996, the Company owed
    BodyBilt $73,155 related to these goods and services.

    During 1996, the Company incurred $206,100 of costs for consulting services
    related to the merger of the Company with BodyBilt.  These services were
    provided by another company that is wholly owned by the chairman's brother.

    The Company's effective tax rate was approximately 34% in 1996 and
    approximately 19% in 1995 due to the graduated tax rates available to the
    Company.

    The Company did not record a valuation allowance for deferred tax assets at
    December 31, 1995 and 1996.  In assessing the realizability of deferred tax
    assets, management considers the carryback potential, the scheduled
    reversal of deferred tax assets and liabilities, future taxable income and
    tax planning strategies.  Management believes that it is more likely than
    not the Company will realize the benefits of these deductible differences.

(6)  Note Payable

    In September 1996, the Company obtained a $500,000 loan at an interest rate
    of 8% per annum which will mature on September 6, 1997.  In connection with
    the establishment of this borrowing, the Company's chairman sold and
    transferred 34,000 shares of common stock to the lender for an aggregate
    consideration of $34,000 and the Company issued a warrant to the lender to
    acquire up to 51,000 shares of common stock at an initial per share
    exercise price equal to 120% of the price to the public in the initial
    public offering of the Company.  The warrant is exercisable for a period of
    four years, commencing one year after the initial public offering of the
    company.  This note is secured by a personal guarantee of the Company's
    chairman.

(7)  Subsequent Events

    BodyBilt Seating, Inc. ("BodyBilt") was merged into a wholly-owned
    subsidiary of the Company on February 5, 1997.  As consideration for the
    merger, the shareholders of BodyBilt received $17.6 million payable in a
    combination of cash ($7.2 million), 780,630 shares of common stock of the
    Company valued at $5.46 million, and 705,085 shares of Series A Preferred
    Stock of the Company valued at $4.94 million, which was immediately
    converted into 705,085 shares of common stock.  On February 5, 1997 the
    Company closed its initial public offering for the sale of 1,700,000 shares
    of common stock at a price of $7 per share.  On March 18, 1997, the
    underwriters exercised their overallotment provision and issued an
    additional 100,000 shares of the Company's common stock at a price of $7
    per share.  On February 5, 1997 the Company issued to the underwriters
    warrants to purchase 170,000 shares of common stock at a price of 120% of
    the price to the public exercisable over a period of four years commencing
    one year from February 3, 1997.  The Company paid the loan referred to in
    note 6 by delivery of $266,889 in cash and 35,714 shares of common stock.

                         Notes to Financial Statements
                        December 31, 1994, 1995 and 1996



(1)  Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

    (a)  Organization and Operations

         BodyBilt Seating, Inc. (the Company) (formerly the Chair Works, Inc.,
         Congleton Chair Works, Inc., and Lubbock Molasses, Inc.) was
         incorporated on November 22, 1982 pursuant to the laws of the State of
         Texas and elected to be treated as an S Corporation.  The Company is
         engaged in the manufacture and assembly of custom built ergonomic
         chairs for commercial, industrial, and residential use.  All of the
         Company's chairs are manufactured in a plant in Navasota, Texas, and
         are sold primarily to customers in Texas.

    (b)  Revenue Recognition

         The Company recognizes revenue at the time chairs are shipped to
         customers.

    (c)  Accounts Receivable

         Accounts receivable are stated net of all known uncollectible
         accounts.  The Company uses historical experience to determine an
         allowance for doubtful accounts.  At December 31, 1995 and 1996 it was
         determined that no allowance was necessary.  No single customer
         accounted for more than ten percent of the Company's sales during the
         years ended December 31, 1994, 1995 and 1996, and no account
         receivable from any customer exceeded ten percent of total accounts
         receivable at December 31, 1995 and 1996.

    (d)  Income Taxes

         No provision or benefit for federal income taxes has been included in
         these financial statements since taxable income or loss passes through
         to and is reported by the shareholders individually.  At December 31,
         1995 and 1996 the net difference between the tax bases and the amounts
         recorded of assets and liabilities was not significant.

    (e)  Inventories

         Inventories consist of the following:

         Inventory is stated at average cost for purchased parts and average
         cost plus allocated labor and overhead for parts manufactured by the
         Company.  All inventory is stated at the lower of cost or market
         value.  For the year ended December 31, 1996, the Company purchased
         25.1% of its inventory from one supplier.  This supplier is currently
         the only source of a key component of BodyBilt chairs.

    (f)  Property, Plant, and Equipment

         Effective January 1, 1996, the Company adopted SFAS 121, Accounting
         for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to
         Be Disposed Of.  Accordingly, in the event that facts and
         circumstances indicate that property and equipment, and intangible or
         other non-current assets may be impaired, an evaluation of
         recoverability would be performed.  If an evaluation is required, the
         estimated future cash flows associated with the asset are compared to
         the asset's carrying amount to determine if a write-down to market
         value is necessary.  Adoption of this statement did not have a
         material effect on the financial position or results of operations of
         the Company.

    (g)  Fair Value of Financial Instruments

         The carrying amounts of accounts receivable, employee and shareholder
         receivables, other current assets, accounts payable and accrued
         expenses approximate fair value because of the short maturity of those
         instruments.  The estimated fair value of notes payable is equivalent
         to its carrying value due to the floating interest rate.

    (h)  Use of Estimates

         Management of the Company has made a number of estimates and
         assumptions relating to the reporting of assets and liabilities and
         the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities to prepare these
         financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting
         principles.  Actual results could differ from those estimates.
