| 3. | STOCK OPTIONS | |||
| The Company has adopted the intrinsic value method of accounting for employee stock options as permitted by Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123, Accounting for Stock-based Compensation (SFAS No. 123) and discloses the pro forma effect on net loss and loss per share as if the fair value based method had been applied. For equity instruments, including stock options, issued to non-employees, the fair value of the equity instruments or the fair value of the consideration received, whichever is more readily determinable, is used to determine the value of services or goods received and the corresponding charge to operations. | ||||
| The following table illustrates the effect on net income and earnings per share as if the Company had applied the fair value recognition provision of SFAS No. 123 to stock-based employee compensation. | ||||

As required by SFAS No. 123, the Company provides the following disclosure of estimated values for these awards. The weighted-average grant-date fair value of options granted during the first three quarters of fiscal 2005 and the first three quarters of fiscal 2004 was estimated to be from $4.40 to $4.50 for fiscal 2005, and $2.66 for fiscal 2004.
7
The fair value of each option grant was estimated on the date of grant using a Black-Scholes option-pricing model with the following weighted average assumptions for the first three quarters of fiscal 2005 and the first three quarters of fiscal 2004, respectively: risk free interest rates of 3.73% and 1.58% respectively, expected lives of 2 years for the first three quarters of fiscal 2005 and the first three quarters of fiscal 2004; volatility of 36.29% and 42.5% and no assumed dividends.
| 4. | EARNINGS PER SHARE | |||
| The Company adopted SFAS No. 128, Earnings per Share (EPS). Basic Earnings per Share is computed by dividing net income available to common shareholders (numerator) by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding (denominator) during the period. Diluted EPS gives effect to all dilutive potential common shares outstanding during a period. In computing diluted EPS, the average price for the period is used in determining the number of shares assumed to be purchased from exercise of stock options and warrants. | ||||
| Stock options to purchase 334,000 shares at exercise prices ranging from $2.25 to $5.63 per share were outstanding as of March 31, 2005. The following options were excluded from the computation of diluted EPS because their effect would have been anti-dilutive. | ||||
| Type | Shares | Exercise Price | Expiration | |||||||

Options |
32,000 | $ | 5.37 | July 10, 2005 | ||||||
Stock options to purchase 378,500 shares at prices ranging from $2.25 to $6.00 per share were outstanding as of March 31, 2004. 101,000 options were excluded in the computation of diluted EPS because the exercise price was greater than the average market price of the common shares and therefore were anti-dilutive.
The following table is a reconciliation of the weighted average shares used in the computation of basic and diluted EPS for the years presented herein:
