ITEM 1. BUSINESS


BACKGROUND

SPACEHAB, Incorporated ("SPACEHAB" or the "Company") was incorporated
in 1984 to commercially develop, own, and operate space habitat modules that
are carried in the cargo bay of a Space Shuttle. Having flown five successful
missions on the Space Shuttle to date, and with six more missions currently
scheduled through 1998, SPACEHAB has become a leader among the companies that
support people who are living and working in space.

INDUSTRY OVERVIEW

The U.S. space program encompasses four broad objectives: to advance
scientific research, to establish a permanent human presence in space, to
develop new technologies that contribute to U.S. economic growth and security,
and to foster improved international relations through peaceful cooperation in
space with Europe, Japan, Russia, and other nations. SPACEHAB segments its
market into three categories: (i) microgravity and life sciences space research
aboard the Space Shuttle, (ii) space support services such as space station
logistics and ground operations and payload processing, and (iii) space
infrastructure development.

Microgravity and Life Sciences Space Research

In orbit, the forces of inertia and gravity counterbalance each other,
thereby creating a condition of near weightlessness known as "microgravity".
In a microgravity environment, materials and living matter behave in
fundamentally different ways than they do on Earth. This phenomenon has
stimulated worldwide interest from scientists and commercial researchers who
are seeking improved ways to manipulate and process materials and to study
biological processes that cannot otherwise be achieved in ground-based
laboratories.
The demand for access to a microgravity environment can be divided
into two broad categories: scientific research and commercial applications.
The National Aeronautics and Space Administration ("NASA") and other U.S. and
international government research organizations provide support for both basic
scientific research and its commercial applications to determine the
fundamental effects that gravity has on physical processes. For the 1996
Government fiscal year, NASA budgeted $540 million to conduct scientific
research and commercial microgravity applications aboard the Space Shuttle
(excluding the associated Space Shuttle launch costs for these experiments).
3
Space Support Services

Space support services entail providing logistics and payload
processing support to NASA and Space Shuttle and International Space Station
("ISS") users. Permanently orbiting facilities such as the Russian Mir space
station and the planned ISS require a reliable source of logistics; the food,
clothing, equipment, and supplies that sustain the astronauts and enable them
to conduct research.
NASA's current plans call for the Space Shuttle to be launched at
least seven times per year for the foreseeable future. NASA has six more Space
Shuttle logistics missions to Mir scheduled during the next two years. As
currently planned, the ISS will require five Space Shuttle logistics missions
per year.
In order to support Space Shuttle and ISS operations, NASA requires
ground operations and payload support services before and after each mission.
Payload processing operations entail payload scheduling, mission planning,
safety/certification analysis, physical integration of the payload into its
carrier (such as SPACEHAB modules), the integration of the carriers into the
Space Shuttle's cargo bay, flight operations, technical data gathering and
synthesis, and launch and landing site activities. NASA currently spends
approximately $300 million per year on processing payloads for Space Shuttle
operations.

Space Infrastructure Development

The ISS is the largest engineering and scientific project ever
undertaken. NASA's budget for the development of the ISS has been capped by
the U.S. Congress at $2.1 billion per year and $17.5 billion for the entire
program. As ISS hardware is developed and budget limitations are being reached,
opportunities are arising for the commercial development of certain elements of
the ISS infrastructure such as the X-ray crystallography facility, a component
of the robot arm that will be used to assemble and manipulate elements of the
space station, and attached platforms for unpressurized research. Once
developed by industry, commercial infrastructure can be leased to NASA, the
international partners, and industry on a per use or long-term service
contract.


PRODUCTS AND SERVICES

SPACEHAB modules are aluminum cylinders, measuring 10 feet in length
by 13.5 feet in diameter, that incorporate a patented design including a
truncated top and flat-end caps. These fully-instrumented modules provide
experiment resources such as power, data management, thermal control, and
vacuum venting. SPACEHAB single modules are employed primarily for research
missions. In 1996, the Company completed a development program and introduced
the SPACEHAB Double Module. This new module is optimized to carry logistics
and now is being used by NASA to carry vital supplies to the astronauts and
cosmonauts who reside on the Russian space station Mir. SPACEHAB invested
$13.4 million in the design, development, and production of the Double Module.
The Double Module was completed and placed into service near the end of fiscal
1996.
SPACEHAB's fundamental business strategy is based on carefully
anticipating customer requirements, investing capital to develop space-flight
assets, contracting with established aerospace companies for engineering and
asset production while retaining ownership of these assets, and then providing
innovative, low-cost solutions that meet customer requirements using
fixed-price service contracts. This strategy has been successful in obtaining
two contracts with NASA, the $184 million Commercial Middeck Augmentation
Module (the "CMAM Contract") contract for five missions and the $52.2 million
Mir contract (the "Mir Contract") for four missions. NASA exercised three
options under the Mir Contract in fiscal 1996, subject to final price
negotiations.
The CMAM Contract, signed in November 1990, requires SPACEHAB to
furnish NASA with SPACEHAB module accommodations for experiments developed by
the Centers for the Commercial Development of Space ("CCDS") on five Space
Shuttle missions. The fourth CMAM mission was completed successfully aboard
the Space Shuttle Endeavour in May 1996 in which the Company integrated and
flew 12 CCDS experiments sponsored by industry, NASA, and academia. The
remaining experiments that will complete the CMAM Contract are intended to be
part of the Company's next mission currently scheduled for September 1996.
4
The basic Mir Contract, signed in July 1995, requires the Company to
provide SPACEHAB Single and Double Module missions for the provision of
logistics resupply to the Mir space station on four Space Shuttle missions.
The first of these four missions was completed successfully in March 1996. On
this mission aboard the Space Shuttle Atlantis, a SPACEHAB Single Module
carried more than 4,600 pounds of food, equipment, and supplies for the two
Russian cosmonauts and one U.S. astronaut who are in orbit aboard Mir.
Three more SPACEHAB missions to Mir are planned in fiscal 1997 under
the Mir Contract. The next mission to Mir, currently scheduled for September
1996, is intended to accommodate the last CMAM experiments and approximately
7,000 pounds of logistics resupply. This mission also will be the first
flight of the new SPACEHAB Double Module. This new module configuration is
optimized to accommodate logistics and will substantially increase the
Company's capability to deliver supplies to Mir.
In June 1996, NASA exercised all three options on the Mir Contract,
providing a firm backlog of logistics resupply missions into 1998. These
options currently call for two Double Module missions and one Single Module
mission.
In its continuing effort to anticipate the needs of customers,
SPACEHAB has initiated the design and development of another module
configuration: a Double Module optimized for research missions. This new
Double Module is designed to augment the Company's fleet of pressurized modules
to meet both the research and logistics carrying requirements of NASA, the ISS
partner agencies, and industry.


COMPANY STRATEGY

SPACEHAB's strategy to enhance its position in all three markets is
based on seven principles.

1. Focusing on Quality of Service. SPACEHAB had two successful
missions in fiscal 1996. All five of the Company's missions to-date have been
completed successfully.

2. Expanding Company-Owned Spaceflight Assets. The Company
successfully completed the SPACEHAB Double Module that is being used by NASA to
provide logistics for the Mir space station. Initial design and development of
another Double Module, that is designed to carry experiments and unpressurized
logistics carriers, has been initiated to expand the Company's fleet of assets.

3. Maintaining Position as Low-Cost Provider. The Company continues
to offer its services to NASA and other customers on a fixed price basis that
it believes to be the lowest in the industry.

4. Continuing Entrepreneurial Initiative. The Company continues to
develop and offer innovative business arrangements to meet NASA and other
customer requirements.

5. Leveraging Skills of International Partners. The Company expanded
its international partner base in 1996 by collaborating with Spar Aerospace
Ltd. of Canada to propose the commercial development and lease of an element of
the ISS infrastructure to the Canadian Space Agency.

6. Acquiring Complementary Businesses and Assets. The Company
continues to evaluate opportunities to acquire complementary businesses,
engineering facilities, and hardware to improve its ability to perform work
associated with the Space Shuttle and ISS.

7. Attracting and Recruiting Talented Personnel. The Company hired
several highly experienced executives in 1996 to expand business development
efforts in microgravity and life sciences research, the ISS program, and
Russian activities.
5
DEPENDENCE ON A SINGLE CUSTOMER

All of the Company's fiscal 1996 revenue was generated from two NASA
contracts - the CMAM Contract and the Mir Contract. The Company expects that
revenue from NASA will continue to account for a large majority of the
Company's revenue for the next several years. However, no assurances can be
made that NASA will require the Company's module services in the future.
Therefore, the Company's failure to execute new contracts with NASA would have
a material adverse effect on the Company's financial condition and results of
operations.

RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT

The Company believes that the timely development of new products, and
continuous enhancements to existing hardware are essential to maintaining its
competitive position. In the past two fiscal years, the Company has spent an
aggregate of $1.7 million on research and development.
Most of the research and development funds were spent on the design,
development, and qualification of the new SPACEHAB Double Module that is
optimized to carry cargo. The first flight of the Double Module is currently
scheduled for September 1996. The Company also performed research and
development activities to enhance the basic capabilities of its module system
with new features such as a video system switch, a digital television downlink
capability, and an experiment data interface to save time for astronauts while
they are conducting experiments inside SPACEHAB modules.
In fiscal 1996, the Company initiated the development of a new module
communications system that will be independent of the Space Shuttle's existing
data downlink. Once implemented, researchers with experiments on a SPACEHAB
mission will be able to have 24-hour, real-time monitoring and control of their
experiment hardware from their laboratory anywhere in the world.
In fiscal 1997, the Company plans to focus research and development
efforts on the design of another SPACEHAB Double Module that will be designed
to carry experiments. This module will be designed to be used to satisfy the
Space Shuttle-based research requirements of NASA, the International Space
Station partners, and industry beginning in 1998. Approximately $10 million
has been budgeted for fiscal 1997 to bring the science Double Module to its
critical design review.
Additional research and development is planned in fiscal 1997 to
expand the Company's product and service line to meet market requirements for
low-cost unpressurized carriers for science and cargo. Approximately $1
million is planned for expenditures in fiscal 1997 to bring these carriers to
their preliminary design reviews.

COMPETITION

Currently, there are no other companies that compete directly with
SPACEHAB by providing pressurized module services that are carried aboard the
Space Shuttle. However, NASA has a government-owned and operated system,
Spacelab, that does provide services that are similar to those provided by
SPACEHAB modules.
In the past, the Company has been selected by NASA to perform research
and logistics missions primarily due to the greater flexibility, shorter
payload integration period, and lower cost of the SPACEHAB module system
compared to Spacelab. NASA, having decided to end the Spacelab program,
scheduled the last Spacelab mission for March 1998.
The Company's long-term strategy for growth is to provide research,
logistics, infrastructure, and payload processing services to NASA and others
during the International Space Station era. This strategy will require the
Company to compete with companies such as Lockheed-Martin, The Boeing Company,
and others who have existing NASA support contracts, greater financial
resources and manufacturing capabilities, and larger marketing, sales and
technical organizations than the Company. However, SPACEHAB's existing
strategic relationships with McDonnell Douglas Aerospace, Alenia Spazio S.p.A.,
Mitsubishi Corporation, and Daimler-Benz A. G. may provide opportunities for
teaming and partnerships that management believes will enable the Company to
compete for market share.

BACKLOG

All of the Company's revenue is generated from two contracts with
NASA , which, similar to contracts with other agencies of the U.S. government,
contain provisions for which NASA may terminate the agreement "for
convenience." The Company's contracts with NASA are conditioned by their terms
upon NASA receiving an adequate annual appropriation of funds from the United
States Congress. Failure to receive funds from Congress or a withdrawal by
Congress of prior appropriations would permit NASA to terminate its contracts
with SPACEHAB "for convenience." For fiscal year 1996, both the U.S. Senate
and House of Representatives have authorized and approved an annual
appropriation of $14.3 billion for NASA and $1.8 billion for the International
Space Station .

It is anticipated that future revenue will be derived from contracts
with entities other than agencies of the U.S. government which will not be
subject to federal contract regulations such as termination "for convenience of
the government" or federal government funding restrictions.

As of June 30, 1996, the Company's contract backlog is estimated to
be $92.3 million, of which $36.0 million represents funded backlog and $4.3
million represents non-U.S government contracts. In addition, the Company is
awaiting notification, from NASA, on submitted unsolicited proposals for
follow-on science missions. Estimated dollar amounts do not include 3 Mir
option missions which have been awarded but for which the final price has not
been negotiated. NASA has issued a contract modification in the amount of $3.5
million to allow the Company to begin work on the 3 Mir option missions during
the period needed to complete price negotiations.

CERTAIN REGULATORY MATTERS

The Company is subject to federal, state and local laws and
regulations designed to protect the environment and to regulate the discharge
of materials into the environment. The Company believes its policies,
practices and procedures are properly designed to prevent unreasonable risk of
environmental damage and the consequent financial liability to the Company.
Compliance with environmental laws and regulations has not had in the past,
and, the Company believes, will not have in the future, material effects on the
capital expenditures, earnings, or competitive position of the Company.

EMPLOYEES

As of June 30, 1996 the Company employed 25 employees, 8 of whom hold
advanced degrees and nearly all of whom have extensive experience in both the
space industry and/or governmental space agencies, with a special competence in
commercial space and human space flight. The Company believes that it is
competitive in hiring and retaining qualified personnel. None of the
Company's employees are covered by collective bargaining agreements. Underlying
all of SPACEHAB's efforts has been the dedication and skill of its personnel.
The Company believes that the dedication of its employees is critical to its
success and its relations with its employees are excellent.


ITEM 2. PROPERTIES

The Company's headquarters are located in an approximately 7,800
square-foot leased office space in Vienna, Virginia. Approximately 2,000
square-feet of additional, contiguous office space will become available to the
Company on or about January, 1997. The term of the present lease expires on
March 7, 2001. This facility houses SPACEHAB's 11 person executive management
team. The Company also leases approximately 4,500 square feet of office space
located near Johnson Space Center in Houston, Texas. The term of this lease
expires on February 28, 1998. The Houston office houses the Company's 10
person operations management team.
7
The Company's payload processing facility is contained in an
approximately 40,000 square-foot plant located near the Kennedy Space Center in
Cape Canaveral, Florida. The Company owns the building but leases the land
upon which it was constructed. The payload processing facility has a prime
work area of approximately 10,000 square-feet which is designed to accommodate
the SPACEHAB Single and Double Modules, and also contains 11 secure
experiment/payload integration and work areas from 300 square-feet to 1,000
square-feet each, two off-line modifications shops, a tool room, a stock room,
and a conference/training room. The term of the lease for the land expires on
August 6, 1998, and is renewable, at the option of the Company, for two
successive five-year periods. Upon expiration of the land lease, all
improvements on the property will revert at no cost to the lessor.

The Company believes that its current facilities and equipment are
generally well maintained and are in good condition and that its existing
facilities and equipment are adequate for its present and foreseeable needs.


ITEM 3. LITIGATION

The Company is not currently involved in any material legal
proceedings.

ITEM 4. SUBMISSION OF MATTERS TO A VOTE OF SECURITY HOLDERS

No matters were voted upon during the final quarter of 1996.


PART II

ITEM 5. MARKET FOR REGISTRANT'S COMMON EQUITY AND RELATED STOCKHOLDER MATTERS

The Company's common stock (the "Common Stock") trades on the NASDAQ
National Market System under the symbol "SPAB". The stock has been publicly
traded since December 22, 1995, the date of the closing of the Company's
initial public offering. The high and low stock prices for fiscal 1996 are as
follows:

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

GENERAL

SPACEHAB was incorporated in 1984 to commercially develop space
habitat modules to operate in the cargo bay of a Space Shuttle.

The Company currently operates under two contracts with NASA, the CMAM
Contract and the Mir Contract, with contract values of $184.1 million and $52.2
million, respectively. All of the Company's revenues for 1996 were generated
from these two contracts.

Revenue is comprised of payment for leasing lockers and/or volume
within the SPACEHAB Modules and for the integration and operations support
services provided to scientists and researchers responsible for the experiments
and/or logistics supplies for flight. To date, revenue from lockers leased to
customers other than NASA have included an amount for transportation charges
which is paid to NASA and included in the Company's costs of revenue. In the
future, the Company may incur such transportation charges associated with such
revenues.

The expenses associated with the operations of SPACEHAB are recorded
differently based on the type of expense. Costs of revenue include integration
and operations expenses associated with the performance of two types of
efforts: (i) sustaining engineering in support of all missions under a contract
and (ii) mission specific experiment support. Expenses associated with
sustaining engineering are expensed as incurred. Mission specific expenses are
recorded as an asset and expensed upon completion of each specific Space
Shuttle mission and when the related revenue is recognized. Other costs of
revenue include depreciation expense, which is allocated to each SPACEHAB
Module ratably over a ten-year useful life. Flight-related insurance covering
transportation of the SPACEHAB Modules from SPACEHAB's payload processing
facility to the Space Shuttle, in-flight insurance and third-party liability
insurance, to the extent incurred, are also included in costs of revenue and
are recorded at the time a mission is flown. In addition, through a
modification to the Mir Contract, the Company has entered into an agreement
with NASA, in which NASA has agreed to indemnify the Company for up to $8.0
million in damages to a SPACEHAB Module during a Mir mission. In exchange for
this coverage, the value of the Mir Contract has been reduced by $2.4 million.
Marketing, general and administrative, interest, and other expenses are
recognized when incurred.

Revenue is recognized upon the successful completion of each mission
and the return of SPACEHAB Modules carried aboard that Space Shuttle mission.
The CMAM Contract, awarded in 1990, is for five missions and the Mir Contract,
awarded in 1995, is for four missions plus three option missions. The three
Mir option missions have been awarded but have not yet been negotiated. The
policy to recognize revenue only after successful completion of each flight was
adopted prior to the Company's completion of the development of the SPACEHAB
Modules and before the Company had a history of demonstrated capability for
successful completion of the contracted missions. Revenue will continue to be
recognized for the existing CMAM and Mir Contracts, including options to these
contracts, at the completion of each of the remaining missions. For new
contract awards for which the capability to successfully complete the contract
can be demonstrated at contract inception, revenue recognition under the
percentage of completion method may be reported based on costs incurred over
the period of contract performance.

SPACEHAB's reported net income grew at a compound annual rate of 94%
beginning with the completion of the Company's first mission in 1993 through
completion of the fifth mission in the nine months ended June 30, 1996. This
growth rate is not expected to continue at this historical level as a result of
a variety of factors. First, the Company is continuing the research and
development of new products that will be offered to NASA and other customers,
including foreign governments and commercial users of the Space Shuttles and
the International Space Station. These significant anticipated expenditures in
research
10
and development will be incurred over the next three years as SPACEHAB
completes the design phase of these new assets. Secondly, sustaining
engineering costs expensed as incurred under the CMAM Contract were higher in
preparation for the initial missions than those expenses being incurred for the
fourth and fifth missions. A similar pattern is being experienced under the Mir
Contract, although to a lesser extent. The overall improved cost experience has
put pressure on pricing to NASA for future missions carrying comparable
payloads for microgravity space research and logistics on the Space Shuttles,
which may impact future mission contract value.


RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

In 1996 the Company elected to change its fiscal year end from September
30 to June 30. Financial information for 1996, therefore, reflects nine months
of operations. Due to the Company's rate of growth and its contract schedule,
information for fiscal 1996 has not been annualized.

Nine Months Ended June 30, 1996 as Compared to the Fiscal Year Ended September
30,1995

Revenue. Revenue for the nine months ended June 30, 1996 increased
22.4% to $56.4 million, as compared with $46.1 million for fiscal year 1995.
The results of operations for this new fiscal period include revenue for two
missions completed during the quarter ended June 30, 1996. This revenue is
attributable to the Company's completion in April 1996 of the first mission
under the Mir Contract and the completion in June 1996 of the Company's fourth
CMAM mission. During the fiscal year ended September 30, 1995, SPACEHAB
completed one mission under the CMAM Contract, providing all of the revenue
reported for fiscal year 1995.

Costs of Revenue. Costs of revenue for the nine months ended June 30,
1996 decreased 10.1% to $21.0 million, as compared to $23.3 million for fiscal
year 1995. Integration, operations and transportation expenses for each of the
nine months ended June 30, 1996 and the fiscal year ended September 30, 1995
were $14.2 million. These amounts are approximately equal in absolute dollars
but, when compared on a basis of nine months to twelve months, the fiscal 1996
cost is higher. First, mission specific costs of $8.4 million for the nine
months ended June 30, 1996 supported two missions where mission specific costs
of $8.2 million for the fiscal year ended September 30, 1995 supported only
one. Second, sustaining engineering costs were $5.8 million in fiscal 1996
compared with $6.0 million in fiscal 1995. Total integration, operations and
transportation costs were only marginally higher in 1996 even though they
supported two flights, thereby reducing the cost per flight for sustaining
engineering and reducing total cost per mission in fiscal 1996.

Operating Expenses. Operating expenses for the nine months ended June
30, 1996 decreased 23.3% to $4.2 million, as compared to $5.4 million for
fiscal year 1995. The decrease is primarily because the reporting period for
fiscal 1996 was nine months and the reporting period for fiscal year 1995 was
twelve months, coupled with a decrease in research and development expenses.
There was $0.1 million incurred for research and development expense for the
nine months ended June 30, 1996 as compared to $1.6 million for fiscal year
1995. The expenditures for fiscal 1995 were used in the development of the
SPACEHAB Double Module which was required to perform the Mir Contract.
Expenditures for research and development associated with the new SPACEHAB
Double Module for microgravity and life sciences did not commence until July
1996. Marketing, general and administrative expenses for the nine months ended
June 30, 1996 increased 6.3% to $4.1 million, as compared with $3.8 million
during fiscal year 1995. Components of the increase in fiscal 1996 include
increases in salaries and benefits of approximately $0.6 million for additional
staff needed for business development and project management, offset by $0.4
million in expenses due to the shorter fiscal year.

Interest Expense. Interest expense, net of capitalized amounts, for
the nine months ended June 30, 1996 decreased 48.8% to $0.7 million from $1.4
million for fiscal year 1995, primarily due to substantially lower average
revolving loan indebtedness under the Company's credit agreement (the "Credit
11
Agreement") for the nine months ended June 30, 1996. The lower average
revolving loan indebtedness was a result of repayments by the Company during
the nine months ended June 30, 1996 of $7.4 million on interest bearing debt.
An amount outstanding of $5.5 million due to a group of insurance companies
under the Credit Agreement during the nine months ended June 30, 1996 remained
non-interest bearing.

Interest Income. Interest income for the nine months ended June 30,
1996 increased to $1.2 million from $0.1 million due to the investment of
approximately $40.0 million of the initial public offering proceeds in short
term, low risk commercial paper and interest bearing cash accounts.

Net Income. Net income for the nine months ended June 30, 1996
increased 88.7% to $29.8 million as compared to $15.8 million for fiscal year
1995. Income tax expense for these periods was $1.9 million and $0.2 million,
respectively, due to the Company's use of available net operating loss
carryforwards, offset by alternative minimum taxes. As of June 30, 1996, the
Company had approximately $17.0 million of available net operating loss
carryforwards expiring between 2006 and 2009 to offset future regular taxable
income. Utilization of these net operating loss carryforwards may be subject
to limitations in the event of significant changes in the stock ownership of
the Company. There are no restrictions on transfers or sales of shares of
Common Stock that would prevent such a change from occurring.

Fiscal 1995 as Compared to Fiscal 1994.

Revenue. Revenue for fiscal year 1995 increased 5.3% to $46.1
million, as compared with $43.8 million for fiscal year 1994. This increase is
attributable to the Company's completion in February 1995 of the third mission
under the CMAM Contract, for which NASA leased 50 lockers, as compared with the
completion in February 1994 of the second mission under the CMAM Contract, for
which NASA leased 46 lockers. During fiscal year 1994, the Company also
provided NASA with two additional lockers for which the Company received
revenue only for integration and operations services.

Costs of Revenue. Costs of revenue for fiscal year 1995 decreased
3.7% to $23.3 million, as compared to $24.2 million for fiscal year 1994.
Integration, operations and transportation expenses for fiscal year 1995
decreased 6.0% to $14.2 million, as compared with $15.1 million during fiscal
year 1994. This decrease is primarily attributable to a $1.0 million
transportation charge the Company incurred during fiscal year 1994.

Operating Expenses. Operating expenses for fiscal year 1995 increased
5.9% to $5.4 million, as compared to $5.1 million for fiscal year 1994.
Research and development expenses for fiscal year 1995 were $1.6 million as
compared with no research and development expenses for fiscal year 1994. This
increase was the result of funds expended in connection with the development of
the SPACEHAB Double Module for logistics and cargo use under the Mir Contract.
The Company did not incur any research and development expense during fiscal
year 1994 due primarily to the completion of the research and development
requirements for the SPACEHAB Single Module and restrictions contained in a
prior credit facility. Marketing, general and administrative expenses for
fiscal year 1995 decreased 25.5% to $3.8 million, as compared with $5.1 million
during fiscal year 1994. This decrease is primarily attributable to a $2.4
million insurance premium amortized by the Company during fiscal year 1994.
Prior to fiscal 1994, the Company was required under the terms of a prior bank
credit agreement to maintain insurance covering losses incurred by the Company
resulting from non-appropriation of funds for the CMAM Contract. Premium
payments for the insurance were paid through February 1994 and, as such,
remaining unamortized costs were written-off as of December 1993 when the
insurance policy was terminated in connection with the Company's 1993
refinancing. No such insurance was required by the Credit Agreement during
fiscal year 1995. The decline in insurance expense was partially offset by an
increase in salary expense during fiscal year 1995 as the Company hired
additional employees.

Interest Expense. Interest expense, net of capitalized amounts, for
fiscal year 1995 decreased 71.4% to $1.4 million from $4.9 million for fiscal
year 1994, primarily due to the amortization of bank
12
financing fees and the write-off of remaining unamortized bank financing fees
in conjunction with a 1993 refinancing in fiscal year 1994, and substantially
lower average revolving loan indebtedness under the Credit Agreement in fiscal
year 1995. The lower average revolving loan indebtedness was a result of
repayments by the Company during fiscal years 1994 and 1995 and the
reclassification of $21.5 million from revolving credit loans to a non-interest
bearing term loan. The refinancing in fiscal year 1994 provided the Company
with, among other things, a $21.5 million non-interest-bearing term loan from a
group of insurance companies and a revolving line of credit from McDonnell
Douglas. A portion of the proceeds from the non-interest-bearing term loan
were used to repay outstanding indebtedness under the prior bank credit
agreement which bore interest at a market rate.

Net Income. Net income for fiscal year 1995 increased 83.7% to $15.8
million as compared to $8.6 million for fiscal year 1994. The fiscal year 1994
period includes an extraordinary loss of $0.9 million as a result of the
write-off of unamortized deferred debt issuance costs in conjunction with the
refinancing. Income tax expense for these periods was minimal due to the
Company's use of available net operating loss carry-forwards.


LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

The Company has historically financed its capital expenditures,
research and development and working capital requirements through progress
payments under both the CMAM Contract and the Mir Contract, investments
received in private and public equity offerings and borrowings under credit
facilities. On December 21, 1995, SPACEHAB completed an initial public offering
of 3,750,000 shares of Common Stock (the "Offering"). On January 21, 1996 the
Underwriters exercised their over allotment option for an additional 264,500
shares of Common Stock. The Offering provided proceeds, net of offering costs,
of approximately $43.3 million.

Cash Flows From Operating Activities. Cash provided by operations for
fiscal years 1994, 1995 and the nine months ended June 30, 1996 were $21.8
million, $26.8 million, and $13.2 million, respectively. Under both the CMAM
Contract and the Mir Contract, progress payments are structured such that
expenses incurred under these contracts are billed to NASA. NASA makes
progress payments under the CMAM Contract on specified dates for specified
amounts. Progress payments under the Mir Contract are billed to NASA monthly
at 95% of the costs incurred in the prior month. Revenue in the amount of $7.7
million remains to be recorded under the CMAM Contract. However, net cash flow
remaining under this contract is estimated to be only approximately $1.1
million. Due to proposed research and development activities in fiscal year
1997, the Company expects that net cash flow will be used in operating
activities during fiscal year 1997.

Cash Flows Used in Investing Activities. For fiscal years 1994, 1995,
and the nine months ended June 30, 1996, cash flows used in investing
activities consisted only of capital expenditures of $0.1 million, $4.9
million, and $6.3 million, respectively. Substantially all of the expenditures
prior to fiscal year 1995 were for the construction and the development of two
SPACEHAB Single Modules. Expenditures during fiscal year 1995 and the nine
months ended June 30, 1996 were for (i) the development and construction of a
tunnel and an adapter ring to be used in conjunction with the SPACEHAB Double
Module and (ii) structural upgrade work performed on the SPACEHAB structural
test article so that it can be attached to an existing SPACEHAB Single Module
to form a SPACEHAB Double Module. The Company invested a total of $11.9
million in the development and construction of the SPACEHAB Double Module
during fiscal years 1995 and the nine months ended June 30, 1996.

The Company also anticipates additional expenditures of approximately
$13.3 million for capital asset additions over the next twelve months. Of this
amount, the Company plans to use (i) $9.0 million to begin construction of an
additional aft module segment, fully outfitted for science, to be joined with
an existing SPACEHAB Single Module to form an additional SPACEHAB Double Module
to support science follow-on missions in 1998; (ii) $0.9 million to expand the
size of the SPACEHAB payload processing
13
facility; (iii) $1.0 million to selectively acquire complementary businesses,
engineering facilities and hardware; and (iv) $2.4 million to enhance the
Logistics Double Module to increase its load capacity. In addition, the
Company anticipates, over the next twelve months, investing $1.0 million in an
incubator opportunity to develop products stemming from microgravity research.
The Company expects to continue funding any additional capital expenditures or
working capital requirements from the remaining proceeds of the Offering,
internally generated cash flow from progress payments under contracts and
through future debt and/or equity offerings.

Cash Flows From Financing Activities. For fiscal years 1994, 1995,
and the nine months ended June 30, 1996, cash flow provided (used) by financing
activities were ($20.9) million, ($16.2) million, and $36.9 million
respectively.

On August 20, 1996, the Credit Agreement was amended and restated.
Under this amendment, the revolving credit commitment from McDonnell Douglas
was canceled. In addition, in exchange for the full satisfaction of two term
loans owed to a group of insurance companies, the Company paid $2.5 million to
said companies at closing and agreed to pay an additional $2.0 million under a
new non-interest bearing term loan. The new term loan is due in installments of
$0.5 million in each of August 1997 and 1998, and $0.333 million in each of
August 1999, 2000, and 2001. Under this new agreement all prior liens and
encumbrances on the Company's assets and all prior restrictive covenants have
been released.

The Company believes that its available cash and cash equivalents will
be sufficient to meet its cash flow deficit from operations and meet other
funding requirements for at least the next 12 months.

RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

In March 1995, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 121, Accounting for the
Impairment of Long-lived Assets and for Long-lived Assets to be Disposed of
("Statement 121"). Statement 121 will require that the Company review its
long-lived assets for impairment whenever events or circumstances indicate that
the carrying amount of assets may not be recoverable. To the extent that the
future cash inflows expected to be generated from an asset are less than the
related future cash outflows an impairment loss is recognized based on the
difference between the asset's carrying amount and its fair market value. The
Company is required to adopt Statement 121 during the year ending June 30,
1997. In the opinion of the management of the Company, the adoption of
Statement 121 will not have a material impact on the Company's financial
condition or results of operations.

In October 1995, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123, Accounting for Stock Based
Compensation ("Statement 123"). Under Statement 123, the Company may elect, but
is not required, to adopt a fair value approach to accounting for stock-based
awards granted to employees. The Company is required to adopt Statement 123 as
of July 1, 1996. The Company does not expect to implement the fair value
methodology of Statement 123, although certain pro forma disclosures will be
required beginning with the Company's fiscal 1997 financial statements.

(1) DESCRIPTION OF THE COMPANY

SPACEHAB, Incorporated (the Company) is the first company to
commercially develop, own and operate habitable modules that provide
space-based laboratory research facilities and cargo services aboard
the U.S. Space Shuttle system. The Company currently owns and
operates two pressurized laboratory modules which significantly
enhance the capabilities of the Space Shuttle fleet. The Company's
modules are unique to the U.S. Space Shuttle.

To date, the Company has successfully completed five missions aboard
the Space Shuttle and substantially all of the Company's revenue has
been generated under contracts with NASA. The Company's contracts are
subject to periodic funding allocations by NASA. NASA's funding is
dependent on receiving annual appropriations from the United States
Government.


(2) SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

FISCAL YEAR

Effective October 1, 1995, the Company changed its fiscal year-end
from September 30 to June 30. Accordingly, the accompanying financial
statements present the Company's results of operations for the years
ended September 30, 1994 and 1995 and for the nine months ended June
30, 1996.

CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS

For purposes of its statements of cash flows, the Company considers
short-term investments with original maturities of 3 months or less to
be cash equivalents. The Company intends to hold all of these
investments to maturity and as such are recognized at cost plus
accrued interest. As of June 30, 1996, the Company's short-term
investments included approximately $35.0 million invested in Federal
government agencies and treasury securities. Additionally, the
Company had approximately $6.0 million invested in commercial paper.
The amortized cost of such investments approximates market value.

PROPERTY AND EQUIPMENT

Property and equipment are stated at cost. The Company's flight
modules are depreciated over a ten-year period using the straight-line
method. All furniture, fixtures and equipment are depreciated using
the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the
respective assets. The payload processing facility is amortized using
the straight-line method over the term of the land lease.

In March 1995, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 121, Accounting for
the Impairment of Long-lived Assets and for Long-lived Assets to be
Disposed of (Statement 121). Statement 121 will require that the
Company review its long-lived assets for impairment whenever events or
circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be
recoverable. To the extent that the undiscounted future cash flows
expected to be generated from an asset are less than the carrying
amount of the asset, an impairment loss is recognized based on the
difference between the asset's carrying amount and its fair market
value. The Company is required to adopt Statement 121 during the year
ending June 30, 1997. In the opinion of management of the Company,
the adoption of Statement 121 will not have a material impact on the
Company's financial condition or results of operations.

(2) CONTINUED

DEFERRED MISSION COSTS

Deferred mission costs are expenses directly related to specific
missions which are recognized as cost of revenue as the respective
missions are completed.

DEBT ISSUANCE COSTS

Debt issuance costs associated with the note payable to the banks were
deferred and amortized using the effective interest method through
December 29, 1993, the date of the refinancing (note 4). The
unamortized deferred debt issuance costs associated with the note
payable to the banks were written off as of that date, and recognized
as an extraordinary loss in the statement of income for the year ended
September 30, 1994.

REVENUE RECOGNITION

Revenue is recognized upon completion of each flight. Total contract
price is allocated to each flight based on the amount of services the
Company provides on the flight relative to the total services provided
for all flights under contract. Obligations associated with a
specific mission, e.g., integration services, are also recognized upon
completion of the mission.

RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT

Research and development costs are expensed as incurred.

INCOME TAXES

The Company recognizes income taxes under the asset and liability
method of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 109,
Accounting for Income Taxes (Statement 109). Under the asset and
liability method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized
for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between
the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and
liabilities and their respective tax bases. Deferred tax assets and
liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to
taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are
expected to be recovered or settled. Under Statement 109, the effect
on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is
recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date.

NET INCOME PER SHARE

Income per common and common equivalent share is calculated by
dividing net income by the weighted average number of common and
common equivalent shares, to the extent dilutive, during the period.
Common stock equivalents are comprised of common stock options and
warrants and convertible preferred stock. Pursuant to Securities and
Exchange Commission Staff Accounting Bulletin Topic 4:D, stock issued
and stock options granted during the 12-month period preceding the
date of the Company's initial public offering have been included in
the calculation of weighted average shares of common and common
equivalent shares outstanding for all periods through the date of the
initial public offering using the treasury stock method, based on the
initial public offering price per share (note 9).

Notes to Financial Statements


================================================================================


(2) CONTINUED

The computation of income per common and common equivalent share,
assuming full dilution, includes all other common stock that
potentially may be issued as a result of conversion privileges,
including the convertible note payable (note 6). Any reduction of
less than 3 percent in the aggregate has not been considered dilutive
in the presentation of income per common share, assuming full
dilution.

All computations of income per common share include the effect of the
1 for 2.4 reverse split of common stock (note 9).

ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally
accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates
and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and
liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the
date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue
and expenses during the reported periods. Actual results could differ
from these estimates.

RECLASSIFICATIONS

Certain 1994 and 1995 amounts have been reclassified to conform to the
1996 financial statement presentation.


(3) STATEMENTS OF CASH FLOWS - SUPPLEMENTAL INFORMATION

The Company exercised its option under the Space Systems Development
Agreement (SSDA) with NASA to defer certain progress payments prior to
the termination of such contract in fiscal 1995 (note 8). Progress
payments of $8,940,079 were deferred by the Company during the year
ended September 30, 1994.

Cash paid for interest costs was approximately $3,900,000, $513,000
and $264,000 for the years ended September 30, 1994 and 1995, and the
nine months ended June 30, 1996, respectively. The Company
capitalized interest of approximately $262,000 and $766,000 during the
year ended September 30, 1995 and the nine months ended June 30, 1996,
respectively, to the module improvements in progress. No amounts were
capitalized during the year ended September 30, 1994.

The Company paid $35,125, $140,456 and $239,154 for income taxes
during the years ended September 30, 1994 and 1995 and the nine months
ended June 30, 1996, respectively.

As of the date of the refinancing (note 4), the Company converted
$13,105,900 of accrued consulting and subcontracting services to a
loan payable under credit agreement.

================================================================================


(4) LOANS PAYABLE UNDER CREDIT AGREEMENT

During 1991, the Company entered into a revolving credit agreement
with a group of banks. Under this agreement, the Company had an
original commitment from the banks for $64 million which was reduced
in accordance with the agreement to $46 million as of October 1, 1993.
Each borrowing under this original revolving credit agreement bore
interest at the Company's choice of either the London Interbank
Offered Rate (LIBOR) plus 3 percent, or the greater of the prime rate
plus 2 percent or the federal funds rate plus 2.5 percent. The rates
on borrowings outstanding from October 1, 1991 to December 29, 1993,
the date of the refinancing discussed below, ranged from 6.125 percent
to 8 percent.

Borrowings under the original revolving credit agreement were secured
by all assets and cash proceeds from contracts of the Company. The
Company was restricted by the terms of the agreement from certain
transactions, including the payment of dividends. Under the terms of
the original agreement, the Company was also required to obtain
certain insurance against events which could terminate the Spacehab
program. The Company obtained the required insurance from a group of
insurance companies, with the group of banks as named beneficiaries.

On December 29, 1993, the Company entered into an amended and restated
credit agreement between the Company, the insurance companies, and
McDonnell Douglas Corporation (McDonnell Douglas), a shareholder,
pursuant to which the insurance companies provided the Company with a
$21,500,000 noninterest-bearing term loan. This refinancing resulted
in the recognition of no gain or loss. The proceeds of the term loan
were used to extinguish all debts to the group of banks under the
original revolving credit agreement, pay McDonnell Douglas $2,000,000
for accrued consulting and subcontracting services, and provide
working capital for the Company. Prior to the $2,000,000 payment on
December 29, 1993, the Company was obligated for accrued consulting
and subcontracting services to McDonnell Douglas for a total of
$15,105,900. As of December 29, 1993, the remaining amounts due to
McDonnell Douglas were converted to amounts due under a new revolving
credit agreement, bearing interest at l percent per month. At the
option of the Company, McDonnell Douglas' subsequent monthly invoices
for services rendered under the CMAM construction and integration and
operations contracts could be added to the outstanding balance under
the revolving line of credit, up to a maximum of $19,500,000 through
December 31, 1994, and a maximum of $9,000,000 thereafter until
maturity on December 31, 1996.

Under the amended and restated credit agreement, the Company was
required to pay the insurance companies all amounts appropriated by
Congress and allocated by NASA to the CMAM contract (note 8) in excess
of $21,626,000 and $2,253,000 during the years ended September 30,
1995 and 1996, respectively; remaining amounts due under the term loan
were due no later than September 30, 2001.

In July 1995, the credit agreement was further amended, such that the
term loan with the insurance companies was segregated into two new
term loans: a $6,458,000 term loan bearing interest at 1 percent per
month due no later than August 31, 1998 (Tranche A Term Loan), and a
$5,495,000 noninterest-bearing term loan due no later than August 31,
2001 (Tranche B Term Loan).

================================================================================



(4) CONTINUED

As a result of the July 1995 amendment, the revolving credit agreement
with McDonnell Douglas was extended, with a maximum amount outstanding
of $9,000,000 through December 31, 1995, and a maximum of $6,000,000
thereafter through maturity on December 31, 1998. Amounts outstanding
bore interest at the rate of 1 percent per month. Under this
amendment, the Company had the option to add McDonnell Douglas'
monthly invoices for services rendered under the Mir construction and
integration and operations contracts (note 13), as well as the CMAM
integration and operations contract up to the available maximum
borrowing amount. As of September 30, 1995, the revolving credit loan
due McDonnell Douglas had an outstanding balance of $2,692,713.

With respect to the Tranche A Term Loan, the Company was required to
repay a minimum principal amount of $10,000 per month. Accordingly,
$120,000 was classified as current in the accompanying balance sheet
as of September 30, 1995. As of September 30, 1995, the Tranche A
Term Loan had an aggregate outstanding balance of $6,589,660. During
the nine months ended June 30, 1996 and in accordance with the terms
of the credit agreement, an aggregate of 15 percent of the net
proceeds from the Company's initial public offering (note 9) were used
to repay pro rata the then outstanding balances of the revolving
credit loan and the Tranche A Term Loan. As of June 30, 1996, the
Tranche A Term Loan had an outstanding balance of $3,179,000, and no
amounts were outstanding under the revolving credit loan due to
McDonnell Douglas.

In August 1996, the credit agreement was again amended and restated.
Under this amendment, the revolving credit commitment from McDonnell
Douglas was canceled. In exchange for the full satisfaction of the
Tranche A Term Loan and the Tranche B Term Loan, the Company paid the
insurance companies $2,500,000 and agreed to pay an additional
$2,000,000 under a new noninterest-bearing term loan. The new term
loan is due in installments of $500,000 on each of August 1, 1997 and
1998, and $333,333 on each of August 1, 1999, 2000 and 2001.

Aggregate interest cost incurred on the debts due under the credit
agreement was approximately $1,500,000, $524,000 and $561,000 for the
years ended September 30, 1994 and 1995 and the nine months ended June
30, 1996, respectively.


(5) NOTES PAYABLE TO SHAREHOLDER

The Company issued subordinated notes for a portion of the amount due
to Alenia Spazio S.p.A. (Alenia), a shareholder, under a previously
completed construction contract for the Company's flight modules.
Such notes had an aggregate outstanding balance of $9,116,828 and
$9,968,503 at September 30, 1995 and June 30, 1996, respectively. The
notes bear interest at an annual rate of 12 percent, compounded
quarterly, with all accrued interest payable 45 days after the first
mission under the CMAM contract and semiannually thereafter. However,
during the year ended September 30, 1995, Alenia agreed to defer the
payment of interest and principal until November 1998. Principal on
the notes is due at the earlier of 45 days after the seventh launch
under the Mir contract or June 15, 1997; however, no amount of
principal on the notes is due until all amounts under the amended and
restated credit agreement (note 4) are repaid. Interest cost incurred
on the notes to Alenia was approximately $970,000, $1,017,000 and
$846,000 for the years ended September 30, 1994 and 1995 and the nine
months ended June 30, 1996, respectively.

(6) CONVERTIBLE NOTE PAYABLE

On August 12, 1992, the Company issued a subordinated promissory note
to an investment bank in the amount of $900,000, carrying interest at
LIBOR plus 3 percent, and maturing six months after the payment of all
other indebtedness due under the amended and restated credit agreement
and the subordinated notes to Alenia. Through June 30, 1996, the
Company had elected to defer the payment of interest under the note,
which interest has been converted to additional outstanding principal.
The note had an amount outstanding of $1,111,321 and $1,170,338 at
September 30, 1995 and June 30, 1996, respectively. The original
principal amount of the note may be converted at the option of the
holder into common stock of the Company, at a conversion rate of
$12.00 per share, at any time prior to maturity.

Interest cost incurred on this subordinated promissory note was
approximately $64,000, $82,000 and $58,000 for the years ended
September 30, 1994 and 1995 and the nine months ended June 30, 1996,
respectively.


(7) FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

The following table presents the carrying amounts and estimated fair
values of the Company's financial instruments as of June 30, 1996 in
accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 107,
Disclosures about Fair Value of Financial Instruments.

August 1996 amended and restated credit agreement (note 4). The
carrying amounts of cash and cash equivalents, short-term investments,
receivable from NASA and accounts payable and accrued expenses
approximate their fair market value because of the relatively short
duration of these instruments.

(8) NASA CONTRACTS

COMMERCIAL MIDDECK AUGMENTATION MODULE CONTRACT

On November 30, 1990, NASA and the Company entered into the Commercial
Middeck Augmentation Module contract (CMAM) to lease to the U.S.
government a portion of the middeck augmentation modules and related
integration services at an aggregate firm fixed price of $184,236,000
over six missions. During the year ended September 30, 1994, the
terms of the CMAM contract were amended to reduce the number of
missions from six to five, although the total locker space leased by
NASA and the contract value remained the same.

NASA has agreed to pay the Company progress payments based on
achieving certain integration milestones. During the years ended
September 30, 1994 and 1995, and the nine months ended June 30, 1996,
NASA made progress payments of $43,204,000, $35,377,000, and
$8,857,000, respectively, to the Company.

During the years ended September 30, 1994 and 1995, and the nine
months ended June 30, 1996, the Company recognized $43,799,560,
$46,059,000, and 45,634,000, respectively, of revenue under the CMAM
contract.

MIR SPACE STATION CONTRACT

On July 14, 1995, NASA and the Company completed final negotiations to
lease the Company's flight modules and provide related integration
services over four missions to the Russian Space Station Mir during
1996 and 1997, at an aggregate firm fixed price of $53,980,000.
During December 1995, the contract was amended whereby the contract
price was reduced to $52,128,800 in exchange for the indemnification
by NASA of certain damage to or loss of the modules during flight.

NASA pays the Company progress payments on a monthly basis. During
the year ended September 30, 1995 and the nine months ended June 30,
1996, the Company received $9,072,764 and $19,907,258, respectively,
from NASA relating to the contract.

During the nine months ended June 30, 1996, the Company recognized
$10,772,000 of revenue under the contract relating to completion of
the first contract mission. As of June 30, 1996, the Company had
$3,724,476 of progress billings outstanding from NASA and $1,721,289
of unbilled retainages due from NASA. All of these amounts are
expected to be collected within the next 12 months.

SPACE SYSTEMS DEVELOPMENT AGREEMENT

On August 11, 1988, the Company and NASA executed the SSDA, pursuant
to which NASA agreed to provide launch and associated transportation
services for the first eight missions of the Company's Space Shuttle
middeck augmentation modules. The terms of the SSDA were amended at
various times through September 30, 1994.

During the year ended September 30, 1995, the terms of the SSDA were
further amended incorporating new launch dates for the remaining CMAM
missions and eliminating approximately $18,200,000 of previously
accrued deferred launch costs and associated interest charges. Under
the terms of the amended SSDA, launches five through eight and all
associated transportation charges to the Company were deleted. As of
June 30, 1996, the SSDA has expired.

(8) CONTINUED

During the year ended September 30, 1994, the Company incurred and
paid approximately $1,039,000 to NASA under the SSDA relating to the
first and second missions, respectively, which costs are included in
costs of revenue in the accompanying statements of income. During the
year ended September 30, 1995 and the nine months ended June 30, 1996,
the Company incurred no transportation costs related to CMAM missions
three and four, as these missions were dedicated to U.S. government
use.


(9) STOCKHOLDERS' EQUITY

INITIAL PUBLIC OFFERING

In December 1995 and January 1996, the Company sold, through an
underwritten initial public offering, 4,014,500 common shares at
$12.00 per share, which resulted in net proceeds to the Company of
approximately $43,300,000 after associated commissions and discounts,
and other expenses of the offering.

REVERSE STOCK SPLIT

Prior to the initial public offering, on December 11, 1995, the
Company's Board of Directors effected a 1 for 2.4 reverse split of
common stock whereby each 2.4 shares of existing common stock were
exchanged for one share of common stock. All share and per share data
appearing in the financial statements and notes thereto have been
retroactively adjusted for this reverse split.

PRIVATE EQUITY PLACEMENT

During August 1995, the Company completed the sale of 150,000 shares
of its common stock to five investors for an aggregate price of
$3,600,000. The terms of sale included a guarantee by the Company
that in the event of the completion of an initial public offering
prior to December 31, 1996, the investors would realize no less than a
25 percent premium on their investment based on the initial offering
price. In the event that the minimum premium was not realized, the
Company had the option to pay to the investors the difference between
the initial public offering price and the guaranteed minimum price in
cash or additional shares of common stock. Based on the initial
public offering price, the Company opted to issue an aggregate of
224,998 common shares to the investors in settlement of the guarantee.

CONVERTIBLE PREFERRED STOCK

As a result of the initial public offering of the Company's common
stock, all of the Company's preferred stock was automatically
converted into common stock on a 2.4 for 1 common share basis upon the
effective date of the offering in accordance with the terms of the
preferred stock.

(10) COMMON STOCK OPTIONS AND WARRANTS


The Company provides grants of either incentive or non-qualified stock
options to employees and members of the Board of Directors. Prior to
the adoption of the 1994 Stock Incentive Plan (the 1994 Plan), stock
options granted to the Company's officers and employees were part of
their employment contract or offer. The number and price of the
options granted was defined in the employment agreements and such
options vest over a period of years. Under the 1994 Plan, the number
and price of the options granted to employees is determined by the
Board of Directors and such options vest incrementally over a period
of four years and expire no more than ten years after the date of
grant.

Under the Directors' Stock Option Plan (the Directors' Plan), each
nonemployee member of the Board of Directors is annually granted
options to purchase 5,000 shares of common stock at exercise prices
equal to the fair market value at the date of grant. Options under
the Directors' Plan vest after one year and expire seven years from
the date of grant.

The following summarizes all option activity for the periods
