decisions, general economic and business conditions, new or modified statutory
or regulatory requirements and changing prices and market conditions. This

$1,089,000
(14%$4,026,000 (30%) and $5,115,000 (24%), respectively, as compared to the same

December 31, 1998, respectively.
The Company has made purchases of shares of its common stock from time
to time in the over-the-counter market (NASDAQ) and/or through privately
negotiated, large block transactions under an authorization of the Board of
Directors. Shares repurchased by the Company are cancelled and returned to the
status of authorized but unissued stock. During the threesix months ended March 31,June 30,
1999, the Company repurchased 540,400686,900 shares of its outstanding common stock for
an aggregate purchase price of $9,893,562$12,583,313 (or an average price of $18.31$18.32 per
share). On March 18, 1999, the Board of Directors authorized the repurchase of
up to 1,000,000 shares of its common stock. As of May 14,August 6, 1999, 887,000740,500 shares remain authorized for repurchase.
The Company believes that its needs for working capital and capital
expenditures through 1999 and beyond will adequately be met adequately by cash flow and
bank borrowings.

information with respect to such forward-looking statements.
The Company currently has no material derivative financial instruments
that expose the Company to significant market risk. The Company is exposed to
cash flow and fair value risk due to changes in interest rates with respect to
its notes payable. As of March 31,June 30, 1999, the Company believes that the carrying
amounts of its financial instruments (cash and notes payable) approximate fair
value.

The "Year 2000" issue is the result of computer programs using two
digits rather than four to determine the applicable year. This could affect
date-sensitive calculations that treat "00" as the year 1900 rather than the
year 2000. An assessment of the Company's exposure related to Year 2000 issues
has been completed and it is not expected to have a significant impact on the
Company.
The Company initiated a number of major system projects in 1997 and 1998
to upgrade core computer hardware, networking and software systems. These
projects are replacing existing systems as opposed to simply fixing Year 2000
problems. Most of these projects have been completed and are operational; the
balance is expected to be operational by September 1999. Capitalized
expenditures for this process totaled $1,400,000$1,600,000 for the period January 1, 1997
to March 31,June 30, 1999 for external labor, hardware and software costs. This amount
includes the cost of new software applications installed as a result of
strategic replacement projects. Prior to December 31, 1998, the Company did not
separately track the internal costs incurred related to Year 2000 issues or the
system conversions described above. Such internal costs are principally the
related payroll costs for its information systems personnel and are not
necessarily considered incremental costs to the Company. Effective January 1,
1999, the Company began to track these internal costs in accordance with
Statement of Position 98-1, "Accounting for the Costs of Computer Software
Developed or Obtained for Internal Use." The Company estimates approximately
$600,000$400,000 for completion of its system upgrades for the remainder of 1999, of
which approximately $200,000$150,000 is expected to be related to internal costs. All
future costs will be funded from operating cash flow.
The Company does not significantly rely on "embedded technology" in its
critical processes. Embedded technology, which means microprocessor-controlled
devices as opposed to multi-purpose computers, does control some building and
security operations, such as electric power management, ventilation, and
building access. All building facilities are presently being evaluated, and the
Company expects all systems using embedded technology to be confirmed as Year
2000 ready by JuneSeptember, 1999. The electronics test and measurement rental
equipment has been evaluated, and it appears only minor quantities of equipment
pose a Year 2000 problem. If deemed important, some equipment may be upgraded.
The Company asks its customers to seek definitive Year 2000 compliance guidance
directly from the equipment manufacturers.
The Company cannot predict the likelihood of a significant disruption of
its customers' or suppliers' businesses or the economy as a whole, either of
which could have a material adverse impact on the Company. However, because the
markets for the Company's products are comprised of numerous customers with a
variety of sizes and levels of sophistication, the noncompliance with Year 2000
of any one would not be expected to have a detrimental impact on the Company's
financial position or results of operations. As a normal course of business, the
Company seeks to maintain multiple suppliers where possible. The Company
continues to communicate with vendors, customers, suppliers, service providers,
and government agencies to monitor their compliance.
The Company presently believes that its Year 2000 exposures will not
present a material adverse risk to the Company's future consolidated results of
operations, liquidity, and capital resources. However, if all systems are not
completed in a timely manner, or the level of timely compliance by key suppliers
or service providers is not sufficient, the Year 2000 issue could have a
material adverse effect on the Company's operations. This includes, but is not
limited to, delays of equipment shipments resulting in loss of revenues,
increased operating costs, loss of customers and suppliers, or other significant
disruptions to the Company's business.
The Company's contingency plan includes (1) all critical computer
operating and financial data will be backed-up and printed at key dates to
provide the basis, if necessary, for a manual system, (2) in the event a
significant number of customers are unable to issue payments, the Company has
sufficient liquidity with its existing line of credit to function adequately,
and (3) the Company continues to look for multiple suppliers and is also

evaluating power and communication alternatives in the event of a loss of
service. The contingency plan is enhanced by the fact that existing management
has been in place since before computer systems were used.
