Highlight of Business Operations:

Service revenues for the three month period ended September 30, 2010 as

compared to the three month period ended September 30, 2009 decreased 2.4% ($2.7

million compared to $2.8 million). Unrelated party service and repair fees

decreased 2.5% ($2.7 million compared to $2.8 million) and related party service

and repair fees remained constant at $55,000. We anticipate that there will be

increases in service revenues as warranties on installed scanners expire over

time.



The increase in our consolidated net revenues of 15.9% from $7.5 million in

the first quarter of fiscal 2010 to $8.7 million in the first quarter of fiscal

2011 was coupled by a decrease of 7.4% in total costs and expenses from $8.9

million in the first quarter of fiscal 2010 compared to $8.3 million in the

first quarter of fiscal 2011. As a result, our loss from operations changed from

$1.4 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2010 to operating income of $435,000

in the first quarter of fiscal 2011.



The overall trends reflected in the results of operations for the first

three months of fiscal 2011 are an increase in revenues from product sales, as

compared to the first three months of fiscal 2010 ($2.7 million for the first

three months of fiscal 2011 as compared to $1.6 million for the first three

months of fiscal 2010), and an increase in MRI equipment segment revenues both

absolutely ($5.4 million as compared to $5.0 million) and as compared to HMCA

($5.4 million or 62.2% from the MRI equipment segment as compared to $3.3

million or 37.8% from HMCA, for the first three months of fiscal 2011, as

compared to $5.0 million or 66.2% from the MRI equipment segment and $2.5

million or 33.8%, from HMCA, for the first three months of fiscal 2010).

Unrelated party sales constituted 100% of our medical equipment product sales

for both the first three months of fiscal 2011 and of fiscal 2010.



Cash provided by operating activities for the first three months of fiscal

2011 was $158,000. Cash provided by operating activities was attributable to net

income of $385,000, a decrease in inventories of $291,000, an increase in other

current liabilities of $1.5 million, and an increase of customer advances of

$552,000 offset by an increase in costs and estimated earning in excess of

billings on uncompleted contracts of $947,000, a decrease in billings in excess

of costs and estimated earnings on uncompleted contracts of $1.5 million along

with a decrease in accounts payable of $338,000.



Total liabilities decreased by 0.8% to $27.2 million at September 30, 2010

from $27.4 million at June 30, 2010. We experienced an increase in other current

liabilities from $8.1 million at June 30, 2010 to $9.5 million at September 30,

2010 offset by a decrease in long-term debt and capital leases from $1.6 million

at June 30, 2010 to $1.5 million at September 30, 2010 and a decrease in

accounts payable from $3.3 million at June 30, 2010 to $2.9 million at September

30, 2010, along with a decrease in billings in excess of costs and estimated

earnings on uncompleted contracts from $2.7 million at June 30, 2010 to $1.3

million at September 30, 2010, and an increase in customer advances from $4.8

million at June 30, 2010 to $5.4 million at September 30, 2010. Unearned revenue

on service contracts remained constant at $5.2 million at June 30, 2010 and

September 30, 2010.



Our working capital deficit decreased to $9.7 million at September 30, 2010

from $10.0 million at June 30, 2010. This resulted from an increase in current

assets ($14.7 million at June 30, 2010 as compared to $15.3 million at September

30, 2010) particularly an increase in the current portion of costs and estimated

earnings in excess of billings on uncompleted contracts of $948,000 ($277,000 at

June 30, 2010 as compared to $1.2 million at September 30, 2010), and a decrease

in inventories of $291,000 ($2.8 million at June 30, 2010 as compared to $2.5

million at September 30, 2010) offset by a greater increase in current

liabilities ($24.7 million at June 30, 2010 as compared to $24.9 million at

September 30, 2010) resulting primarily from a decrease of approximately

$337,000 in the current portion of accounts payable ($3.2 million at June 30,

2010 as compared to $2.9 million at September 30, 2010) and an increase of $1.4

million in other current liabilities ($8.1 million at June 30, 2010 as compared

to $9.5 million at September 30, 2010) .
