NOTE 3: SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES:
-------------------------------------------
INVESTMENT IN DEBT AND EQUITY SECURITIES:
The Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No:
115 ("SFAS No: 115"), Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt
and Equity Securities, effective January 1,1995. Management
determines the appropriate classification of its Investments in
debt and equity securities at the time of purchase and reevaluates
such determination at each balance sheet date. Debt securities for
which the Company does not have the intent or ability to hold to
maturity are classified as available for sale, along with the
Company's investment in equity securities. Securities available for
sale are carried at fair value, with the unrealized gains and
losses reported in a separate component of shareholders' equity net
of income taxes, until realized. At June 30, 2004 the Company had
no investments that qualified as trading or held to maturity. The
amortized cost of zero-coupon debt securities classified as
available for sale is adjusted for accretion of discounts to
maturity. Such amortization and interest are included in interest
income. Realized gains and losses are included in other income or
expense. The cost of securities sold is based on specific
identification method.

Item 2: Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition
-----------------------------------------------------------
and Results of Operations:
--------------------------
June 30, 2004 compared to September 30, 2003 and
------------------------------------------------
June 30, 2004 compared to June 30, 2003.
----------------------------------------
FINANCIAL CONDITION AND LIQUIDITY:
----------------------------------
The Company's financial condition is strong with current assets of $4,323,980
compared to current liabilities of $383,636 at June 30, 2004, for a current
ratio of more than 11.2 to 1. Working capital stood at $3,940,344 on June 30,
2004 compared to $7,008,375 at September 30, 2003. The decrease is attributable
to the divestiture of StarBiz in the form of a stock dividend. Accounts
receivable expanded moderately to $667,768 from $627,345 in the prior year's
quarter ended June 30, 2003. Inventories grew moderately to $1,079,132 from
$1,135,012 on June 30, 2003.
Revenues for the June 30, 2004 quarter declined to $1,420,850 from the
$1,593,772 in the year earlier period. The year earlier period included a
significant increase in military requirements to meet the needs of the armed
services for combat. For the nine-month period ended June 30, 2004 revenues were
$3,726,552 as compared to $4,002,187 in the prior year's period. The decline was
due to lower interest and investment income, as well as a return to more normal
military procurement levels.
Management believes that future working capital requirements will be provided
primarily from operations and that the Company's liquidity and working capital
requirements are adequate for the next 12 months of operation. Management
believes that the Company's creditworthiness is substantial relative to its
size.
Flamemaster paid a 12.5% stock dividend during the quarter and has declared a
$.023 cash dividend to be paid August 10, 2004.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS:
----------------------
For the three months ended June 30, 2004 net income was $180,843 compared to
$241,591 in the year earlier quarter. For the nine month period, net income
declined to $377,283 from $492,439 or $.23 per share vs. $.31 per share basic
and $.28 fully diluted adjusted for the 12.5% stock dividend in the prior year's
period. The decline in earnings was due to higher costs associated with
increased reporting requirements of the SEC and NASDAQ, as well as higher health
insurance premiums. Laboratory costs, including research and development for the
quarter were steady at $101,377 from $106,590 in the year ago period, but were
up moderately for the nine-month period to $324,135 from $304,786 in the nine
months ended June 30, 2003 due to increased product development costs. General
and administrative expenses increased substantially for the quarter ended June
30, 2004 to $208,080 from $166,814 in the quarter ended June 30, 2003. The
increase is attributable to increased regulatory requirements. The nine-month
period reflected a similar increase in general and administrative expenses to
$591,138 for June 30, 2003 and $517,806 in 2003. Again due to increased
regulatory requirements.
