PART I
Item 1. Business
(a) In General. The Registrant was organized in October,
1967, and commenced doing business on January 1, 1968. The
Registrant is engaged in the rental and development of real
estate and in developing surgical staples and the technology used
to apply the staples and was formerly engaged in developing
technology for semiconductor devices until 1994 when such
activities were terminated.
b) Industry Segments. For financial information in regard
to Industry Segments, reference is made to Note 13 to the
Financial Statements for the years ended September 30, 1997,
1996 and 1995.
(c) Description of Business.
(i) Principal Activities and
(ii) Status of products and Real Estate Properties.
Medical Staples
The Registrant is continuing its efforts in the area of
Medical Staples for use in internal surgery. Four United States
Patents have been received and foreign applications have been
filed on a novel staple. The staple has been produced and it is
anticipated that animal tests will continue during the fiscal
year ending September 30, 1998.
A significant investment would be required if the Registrant
were to pursue this area of business. The Registrant may seek a
relationship of some sort with a firm active in the medical
equipment area. However, no decision as to such a relationship
has been made at this time.
Semiconductor Technology
The Registrant had obtained a United States patent covering
technology for the deposition of thin films of semiconductor
materials, e.g., III-V materials such as binary or ternary
semiconductor materials, on suitable substrates. Contracts to
investigate the technology involved were given by the Solar
Energy


3



Research Institute (S.E.R.I.) of the United States Department of
Energy (USDOE) to Brown University. This work, in order to
support the length of research required to test the theories, was
to test the quality of the materials and potential applications
and the funds were supplied by the USDOE on the Solaris Solar
Research program, Grant #DE-FG02-84C410203. Subsequently, Brown
University performed additional investigations of the
applications of the technology supported by the USDOE under the
University Participation Program, Contract #XB5-05009-5. These
investigations showed that the film deposition rates with the
technology were faster than with conventional liquid phase
epitaxy and were of high quality. However, variations in film
thickness along the direction of flow were observed. If such
variation cannot be solved, it would limit the possible
commercial use of the technology. Further investigation of the
technology by Brown University has ceased as governmental support
for their research has terminated. The Registrant has no direct
knowledge at this time of other research taking place using its
technology. There is no assurance that the technology in
question will find commercial application. During 1993 the
Registrant expended $37,615.00 toward development of
semiconductor technology and substantially reduced expenditures
during 1994.
During fiscal year 1994, the Registrant discontinued efforts
relating to photovoltaic cells. Work in the field has moved in
directions away from that of the Registrant's technology.
There has been a substantial reduction of government support in
this technical area and funding that had been received by
laboratories exploring the Registrant's technology has
terminated.

Real Estate Development and Rental Activities
The Registrant has rented two buildings it owns located at
A&S Drive, Paramus, New Jersey: one to The Sports Authority, Inc.
and the other to Tandy Corporation for retail purposes.
(iii) Raw Materials


4



The Registrant believes that the components and materials
necessary or useful to its operations will be available from
diverse sources of supply. The materials used for the
Registrant's research activities have been acquired through
commercial businesses engaged in the distribution of such
supplies. The materials that the Registrant would require for
development of commercial production of medical staples are
widely available.
(iv) Patents.
The Registrant has filed several patent applications and has
several patents issued in connection with medical staples for use
in internal surgery. These applications and patents are as
follows:

The Registrant has obtained patent protection on technology
developed in the areas of epitaxial growth, peeled films and
photovoltaic cells. However, there is no assurance that any
revenue will be received as a result of obtaining the patents.
The Patents issued to the Registrant dealing with the
Semiconductor research are as follows:
1. U.S. Patent No. 4,396,456 "Method of Peeling
Epilayers", Melvin S. Cook.
2. U.S. Patent No. 4,519,871 "Bubble-Mode Liquid Phase

It is presently contemplated that Registrant's activities
with respect to medical staples, if actual commercial
activities are commenced, may be limited to licensing the
technology to other firms or to forming some type of business
relationship with other firms. The technology is in competition
with alternative staples, some of the suppliers of which are
well-established.
Competition in the real estate office rental segment of the
Registrant's business activities was significant in the Bergen
County, New Jersey market in which the Registrant competes.
The obsolete style of the office building owned by the
Registrant prior to and during 1991 made the attraction of
suitable office tenants most difficult.
In an effort to increase the marketability of the
Registrant's properties, the Registrant applied to the Borough of
Paramus for a zoning change to allow retail use for the office
building and for development of the adjacent site.
In December 1991, the change in zoning was approved. The
then existing building was rented to The Sports Authority, Inc.
The market for retail space in Paramus, New Jersey area,
although in recession, was not as adversely affected as was the
market for office space.
During 1994, a 30,000 sq. ft. building was constructed on
the Registrant's site located adjacent to the building leased by
The Sports Authority, for use as a Computer City retail store.
Tandy Corp. commenced paying rent in October 1994. Holobeam
reimbursed Tandy Corporation $1,189,675 for the costs of
constructing the building and paving of the site, after
a permanent Certificate of Occupancy was obtained.
(xi) Research and Development.
The Registrant discontinued engineering and development in
connection with the development of technology associated with
semiconductor devices during 1994 and no funds were expended in
connection with these activities. During 1993 the Registrant
recorded research and development costs of $37,615.00 on such
technology. There have been no such costs expended during 1994,
1995 and 1996

7




in connection with this technology. The Registrant anticipates
that no Research and Development expenditures will be made with
respect to semiconductor technology during the year ended
September 30, 1998.
The Registrant has investigated methods for applying
surgical staples and the technology presently used to fabricate
and apply such staples. During 1997, 1996 and 1995, the
Registrant expended $147,562.00, $219,001.00 and $120,833.00,
respectively, in connection with furtherance of this activity.
Such costs have been currently expensed and consist principally
of materials, supplies and costs associated with design and
development.
(xii) Environmental Compliances.
The Registrant does not believe that compliance with
Federal, State or Local provisions of a governmental nature which
have been enacted or adopted regulating the discharge of material
into the environment will have a materially adverse effect upon
the capital expenditure requirements, earnings or competitive
position of the Registrant.
If the semiconductor technology developed had ever reached
production, the Registrant would have engaged an accredited,
outside manufacturing firm to perform the production process.
One feature of the Registrant's technology was the absence of
significant waste materials. Since the Registrant's semiconductor
technology was developed, other technologies have advanced the
state-of-the-art and new directions in this field have rendered
the Registrant's technology less attractive.
The Registrant's activities with regard to medical staple
technology, at present, are limited to engineering, development
and testing of medical staple design with fabrication and
manufacturing of prototypes and models sub-contracted to other
firms.
The Registrant is not aware of any potential liabilities or
costs associated with the disposal or handling of waste materials
and is not aware of any potential violations of local,
state or federal laws which regulate the


8




technology.
(xiii) Employees.
At September 30, 1997, the Registrant employed three persons
as compared to the three
persons at September 30, 1996 and three persons at September 30,
1995.
(d) Financial Information About Foreign and Domestic
Operations and Export
Sales.
Registrant is not engaged in foreign operations and does not
export to foreign countries.
Item 2. Properties
The Registrant's headquarters and principal facilities are
located at 217 First Street,
Ho Ho Kus, New Jersey 07423-0287. The Registrant leases
approximately 1,000 square feet of office and laboratory space on
a 12 month lease that is annually renewable. The Registrant owns
two office buildings of 62,000 square feet and 30,000 square feet
located at 50 A&S Drive, Paramus, New Jersey. One building was
placed in service in October 1994, the other in 1982. (Reference
is made to Notes 4, 8, 9 and 10 to the Financial Statements for
the fiscal year ended September 30, 1991, 1990 and 1989.)
Pertinent information concerning the Registrant's properties
is as follows. (Reference
is made to Schedule XI of the accompanying Financial statements
for the years ended September
30, 1997 and 1996.)

the Mortgage, but does not include additional amounts expended by
The Sports Authority, Inc. since closing.

(2) Includes construction allowance of $1,189,675.00 for
Tandy Corporation pursuant to the Operating Lease Agreement.

(3) Includes land cost of $218,402 for the 62,000 sq. ft.
building.

(4) Includes land cost of $234,370 for the 30,000 sq. ft.
building.

In 1983, the Registrant purchased 2.799 acres of land
located in Paramus, New Jersey and adjacent to the building owned
by the Registrant at 50 A&S Drive. The purchase price was
$173,565 which was paid in cash. Since 1983, the Registrant has
incurred costs in the amount of $60,805 for various improvements
and architectural work relating to development of this property.
During 1992, 1991 and 1990, the Registrant spent $293,784,
$78,051 and $50,667 respectively in connection with an
application for a use variance for the site and various site
improvements that would enable the construction of a commercial
or retail building on the site. The change in zoning to retail
use was approved by the Borough of Paramus in December 1991. The
change in zoning to allow retail use also required new site plan
approval because the change in use requires new traffic pattern
studies, parking lot re-design and significant additional changes
in order to comply with governmental requirements.
In addition, the Registrant expended $964,505 through
September 30, 1994 for site plan approval and changes, and toward
construction of a building on the site. No depreciation or
amortization was recorded until the building and site were put
into service. During October 1994, construction was completed by
Tandy Corporation of a retail building on the Registrant's
site. The building is now being used for a Computer City retail
store. (Reference is made to Note 13 to the Registrant's 1994
Financial Statements and to Item 1, Part X of the 1994 Form 10K.)
The source of funds for any additional improvements will be the
cash and cash equivalents reflected on the Balance Sheet, and if
necessary, the Cash Flows associated with the Rental Income
generated by the Operating Leases. (Reference


10


is made to Note 3 of the accompanying Financial Statements for
the years ended September 30, 1997 and 1996.)
The zoning change approval allowed for retail use of the
property and significantly enhanced the opportunities for
attracting a suitable tenant for the site.
When purchased, the site adjacent to the building owned by
the Registrant, was 12 (twelve) feet below the acceptable
construction level and required significant amounts of fill
together with site engineering costs to acquire site plan
approval for a building from the appropriate governmental
regulatory authorities.
In addition, the Registrant expended funds to change the
zoning of the property from office use to retail use. This
change in zoning allowed the Registrant to seek tenants who were
engaged in retail operations for the site and resulted in the
October 1994 tenancy of Computer City. (Reference is made to
Note 12 of the accompanying Financial Statements.)
The Registrant was not able to lease the property since the
original site plan allowing office use was approved until the
Computer City occupancy of October 1994 for retail use. The
market for office space has seen significant decline during the
years ended September 30, 1990, 1991, 1992, 1993 and 1994. The
vacancy rate for such space had reached 28% during the year ended
September 30, 1994 and 1993, respectively for the area in which
the Registrant competes, Bergen County, New Jersey.
The occupancy rate for the building owned by the Registrant
and under lease to The Sports
Authority Inc. for the past five (5) years is as follows:
1997 100%
1996 100%
1995 100%
1994 100%
1993 100%

The building owned by the Registrant and under lease to
Tandy Corp. has been 100% occupied since October 1994. A summary
of the amounts expended for


11




such approvals for the three most recent fiscal years during
which such expenditures were made appears below. No such
expenditures were made in 1995.

The payment of $200,000 during 1992 to Paramus Park, a
retail shopping mall adjacent to the site currently being
developed by the Registrant, was a one-time fee in connection
with removal of an existing deed restriction which prohibited
adjacent retail activity. The balance of the payments for site
plan approvals were paid to various engineering, legal and
surveying firms in connection for professional services rendered
to obtain governmental approvals.
No payments to affiliated parties were made in connection
with the zoning changes nor were any payments made to affiliated
or related parties for the acquisition of site plan approval.
Any payments to affiliated parties are unrelated to the cost of
such activities and are detailed and disclosed in Item 11 (d) of
this report.
Item 3. Legal Proceedings.
There are no legal proceedings of a material nature to which
the Registrant is a party other than ordinary, routine litigation
incidental to the business of the Registrant.

PART II

Item 5. Market for the Registrant's Common Stock and Related
Stockholder
Matters.
(a) The Registrant's common stock is traded on the
over-the-counter market. The bid price offered by Walsh Manning
Securities Inc., New York, New York on December 10, 1997 was
$11.00 per share. On July 18, 1983, the Registrant's shares were
deleted from the NASDAQ system when no market maker for the
Registrant's common stock any longer maintained registration as
such with the NASDAQ System.
(b) The approximate number of holders of Common Stock
securities of the Registrant as of December 10, 1997 was 685.
(c) No dividends have been paid or declared on the Common
Stock of the Registrant during the 1997 or 1996 fiscal year. In
making decisions regarding the possible payment of dividends, the
Board of Directors considers the Requirements of the Registrant
in such ongoing activities as real estate development and the
research, development and engineering efforts of the Registrant
as well as such obligations as mortgages and debentures.
(d) Changes in Securities.
(Reference is made for Form 10Q for the six-month period
ended March 31, 1984, wherein the Registrant completed an
exchange of common stock for 5% Debentures payable March 1, 1989.

Reference is made to Notes 9 and 10 to the Financial Statements
for the years ended September 30, 1989 and 1990.)

Item 7. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial
Condition and
Results of Operations.
(1) Liquidity.
The Registrant funded construction site preparation,
engineering and site plan approvals for a 30,000 sq. ft. building
presently occupied by Tandy Corporation as a Computer City retail
store. Total costs related to


14



the building construction amounted to $2,592,513 and the
building was placed in service during the fiscal year ended
September 30, 1995. (Reference is made to the Registrant's
Annual Report, Form 10K for the year ended September 30, 1994,
Item 1(c), Item 2 and to Note 3 to the Registrant's financial
statements for the year ended September 30, 1995.)
These construction costs were funded in part by the
proceeds of the First Mortgage on the 62,000 sq. ft. building
owned by the Registrant (and occupied by The Sports Authority),
in part by the Tenant allowance for construction pursuant to the
lease agreement and by cash flows associated with the operating
leases for both buildings.
Gross Rents and net rental income associated with the
operating leases on the properties of the Registrant are
sufficient to provide the cash flows necessary to fund the
Registrant's operations. The lease terms expire in 2009 (Tandy
Corporation) and 2012(The Sports Authority) and include options
for renewal. In the event that the lease options are exercised,
revenue will continue beyond 2009 and 2012.
Total minimum future rental income associated with
these leases approximates $30,036,000.00 and should be adequate
to fund the Registrant's real estate rental activities and to
provide the cash flows necessary to fund the surgical staple
development and engineering project.

(2) Capital Resources
Since building construction has been completed, the
Registrant does not anticipate future additional capital
requirements for the rental properties other than those that are
routine and incidental to its rental operations. Expenses are
expected in connection with maintenance, insurance and taxes, but
no major capital projects are planned at this time.
The Registrant expects to continue to fund the
development and

15



engineering associated with its activities with the medical
staples technology. Animal testing is expected to continue
during 1998 and results will be evaluated before additional
testing occurs. The Registrant expects that the maximum funding
requirement during 1998 in connection with the development,
engineering and testing will approximate $250,000.00 and will be
funded from cash flows provided by the real estate rental
activities. No revenues are projected in connection with the
medical staples technology during 1998.

(3) Results of Operations.
(a) The results of operations for the year ended
September 30, 1997 indicate after tax income of $303,882.00 as
compared to $306,434.00 for the fiscal year ended September 30,
1996. The Registrant has experienced consistent results of
operations since the real estate rental properties have been 100%
occupied and under favorable operating lease agreements. Because
the buildings are under lease to The Sports Authority and to
Tandy Corporation, such revenues are expected to continue to be
uniform through 2009 when the Tandy lease expires. Costs are
also expected to remain at present levels during the short term.
Long Term, the Registrant expects costs to increase,
particularly with liability insurance, during the life of the
leases. It is also expected that maintenance costs may increase
as the buildings mature and may require more substantial and
costly repairs. Funding of these costs is not expected to have a
materially adverse effect upon the results of operations during
the term of the leases.
As previously discussed, the Registrant also expects to
fund engineering and development activities associated with its
medical staple technology in the maximum amount of $250,000.00
during 1998 which will be supported by the cash flows associated
with the real estate rental

16



activities. The Registrant funded the medical staples
technology development in the amount of $147,562.00 during the
year ended September 30, 1997
(b) The results of operations for the year ended
September 30, 1996 indicate after-tax income of $334,594.00 for
1995. Performance for the two years remained relatively stable
resulting from revenues received under the operating leases of
The Sports Authority, Inc. and Tandy Corp. Since the buildings
are 100% occupied and will remain so until 2009, revenues are
expected to continue to be uniform through 2009. Costs associated
with the operating leases are expected to remain at present
levels throughout the terms of the leases with the exception of
costs associated with business liability insurance in connection
with the leasing activities, which are expected to rise with
inflation and risk factors.
The Registrant expects to continue to fund research and
development costs associated with the surgical staple project and
such costs increased from $120,833.00 in 1995 to $219,001.00 in
1996. This increase resulted from additional expenditures for
purchases of materials, supplies and design and drafting services
during 1996. The Registrant expects to continue to fund the
development during 1997 and anticipates that such expenditures
will approximate $250,000.00 during 1997.
At present, the fabrication and experiments being
performed by the Registrant in connection with the surgical
staples project are limited to engineering, design and
development of staple design and to design of equipment to apply
the staples. Such work may progress to animal testing during
1997 and if started, may take substantial time before conclusive
results can be evaluated.
The Registrant expects to fund the 1997 portion of the
project's requirements from cash flows associated with the real
estate rental


17



activities of the Registrant's business.
(c) The results of operations for the year ended
September 30, 1995 indicate a profit of $334,594.00 as compared
to income of $32,201.00 (before cumulative effect of change in
Accounting Principle) for 1994. (Reference is made to Note 2 of
the accompanying Financial Statements for the year ended
September 30, 1995.) Income before provision for income taxes
increased $531,339.00 when compared to $32,251.00 for 1994. The
improved performance resulted from rental income associated with
the operating lease on the 30,000 sq. ft. building occupied by
Tandy Corporation. The operating lease generated an increase in
gross rentals of approximately $626,600.00 during 1995 as
compared to 1994 and is expected to continue and increase for the
term of the lease.
Expenses associated with Registrant's rental activities
increased from $168,531.00 in 1994 to $280,038.00 in 1995. These
increased costs resulted primarily from increased depreciation
expense associated with the building that was put into service
during 1995 in the amount of $60,935.00 and increased legal fees
associated with the administration of the real estate rental
activities and lease preparation activities. Such increase
approximates $31,695.00. The remainder of the annual increase
results from increases in expenses incident and necessary to the
Registrant's business and activities associated with real estate
development.
Research and development costs in connection with the
Registrant's medical staple development project approximated
$120,800.00 for 1995 which represents an increase of $56,900.00
when compared to the 1994 expenditures. The increase is
associated with an increase in supplies and materials, including
sample raw materials and supplies, used to perform the
development activity. Such increase approximated $49,900.00
during 1995. No revenues were earned in connection with the
medical staples activities during 1995 or 1994.


18



The Registrant anticipates that revenues associated
with the real estate rental phase of its operations will be
sufficient to fund the planned research and development efforts
in connection with the medical staples.

Registrant. The amounts paid to Mr. Infante were in connection
with his services performed as insurance agent and landlord.
During 1997, Mr. Infante's payments were limited to rental

To the Board of Directors and Stockholders
Holobeam Inc.
Wyckoff, New Jersey

We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of Holobeam, Inc.
as of September 30, 1997 and 1996 and the related statements of
operations, shareholders' equity and statements of cash flows for
the years then ended . These financial statements are the
responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility
is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on
our audits. The financial statements of Holobeam, Inc. as of
September 30, 1995, were audited by other auditors whose report
dated December 25, 1995, expressed an unqualified opinion on
those statements.

We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted
auditing standards. Those standards require that we plan and
perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether
the financial statements are free of material misstatements. An
audit includes, examining on a test basis, evidence supporting
the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An
audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and
significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating
the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that
our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above
present fairly, in all material respects the financial position
of Holobeam, Inc. as of September 30, 1997 and 1996, and the
results of its operations, shareholders' equity and its cash
flows for the years then ended in conformity with generally

fairly the information set forth therein.

NOTE 1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

a. Nature of Operations

The Company is engaged in the rental of real
property for retail use and in development of
surgical staples and the technology used to apply
the staples.

b. Depreciation and Amortization

It is the policy of the Company to provide for
depreciation and amortization of the building and
equipment on a straight line and accelerated basis
in amounts sufficient to write-off the cost of the
assets over their estimated useful lives, which are
as follows:

Building and Building Improvements 31. 5 to 40 years
Machinery and Equipment 5 to 7 years
Furniture and Fixtures 7 to 10 years

Maintenance and repairs are charged to operations in
the year in which incurred, while replacements and
betterments are capitalized by charges to the
appropriate asset accounts. The cost and
accumulated depreciation and amortization with
respect to assets retired or otherwise disposed, are
eliminated from the assets and related accumulated
depreciation and amortization accounts and any
profit or loss resulting therefrom is reflected in
operations.

Patent and Patent application costs are amortized on
a straight-line basis over a ten year period.

c. Earnings Per Share

Earnings per share of common stock has been computed
by dividing net income by the weighted average
number of common shares outstanding during the year.

d. Capitalized Real Estate Taxes

The Company capitalized real estate taxes related to
the property upon which the Company intended to
construct a commercial building. Such taxes were
capitalized until the property was put into service
on October 1, 1994.

e. Statement of Cash Flows

For purposes of reporting cash flows, all liquid
investments with original maturities of three months
or less are considered cash equivalents.

NOTE 1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)

f. Income Taxes

Deferred income taxes are provided on temporary
differences between financial statement and income
tax bases of assets and liability's. Generally,
deferred tax assets are recognized in the current
period for the future benefit of net operating loss
carryforwards and items for which expenses have been
recognized for financial statement purposes, but
will be deductible in future periods. Valuation
allowances are established when necessary to reduce
deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be
realized.

g. Deferred Charges

It is the policy of the Company to charge costs
associated with the acquisition of long term debt
(mortgages) to expense over the term of the
mortgage.

In addition, the Company charges costs associated
with the procurement of operating leases,
specifically real estate brokers commissions, to
expense during the term of the operating lease.

h. Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements requires
management to make estimates and assumptions that
affect certain reported amounts and disclosures.
Accordingly, actual results could differ from these
estimates.

I. Short-Term Investments

Short-term investments have an original maturity of
more than three months and a remaining maturity of
less than 1 year. These investments are stated at
cost as it is the intent of the company to hold
these securities until maturity.
NOTE 2. INCOME TAXES

The deferred tax assets recorded on the balance sheet as
of September 30, are as follows:

Capital losses of the Company which approximates $0 in
1997, $0 in 1996, and $17,575 in 1995 were available to
offset future capital gains. Capital losses of $17,575
expired in 1995.

In 1997, 1996 and 1995, the net operating loss carryovers
do not agree with the accumulated deficit on the balance
sheets for the same periods because some net operating
losses have expired and because capital losses are not
included in the net operating loss carryovers.
