ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS.

(1.) Results of Operations for Period Ended September 30,2000

Continuing Operations

Effective June 30, 1999, the Company made a decision to sell Imaging Technology Division (Display Product Segment) and Nortech Medical Services (Medical Management Segment). The following management discussion relates only to the continuing operations of contract manufacturing. See below, the details of discontinued operations.

For the quarter ended September 30, 2000, the Company had revenues of $13,724,356 compared to revenues of $9,333,900 for the quarter ended September 30, 1999. The increase in revenues resulted primarily from the additional revenues generated from internal growth. The net income for the three months ended September 30, 2000 was $546,616 or $.23 per share, compared to a net income of $226,380 or $.10 per share, for the three months ended September 30, 1999. The net income for the quarter ended September 30, 2000 was primarily impacted by increased gross profit from the increased revenue offset by increased selling and general and administrative expenses.

For the nine month period ended September 30, 2000, the Company had revenues of $39,492,921, compared to revenues of $28,223,053 for the same period ended September 30, 1999. The increased revenue resulted primarily from internal growth. The net income for the nine month period ended September 30, 2000, was $1,404,845 or $.59 per share, compared to net income of $763,580 or $.33 per share for the same period in 1999.

Company's 90 day order backlog was $9,980,000 as of September 30, 2000, compared to $9,808,000 at the beginning of the quarter. Based on the current conditions, the Company anticipates revenue levels in the fourth quarter of 2000 to be consistent with third quarter of 2000.

Discontinued Operations

On June 30, 1999, The Company decided to sell the Imaging Technologies operation (Display Product Segments) and Nortech Medical Services (Medical Management Segment). As of February 2000, the fixed assets and inventory of the Display Products segment were sold to Computron Display Systems. Under the terms of the purchase agreement dated February 22, 2000, the Company sold these assets for $300,000, of which $50,000 will be held in escrow to cover future warranty expenses. These terms are materially consistent with estimates recorded by the Company for 1999.

(2.) Liquidity and Capital Resources.

The Company's working capital increased to $10,742,175 during the third quarter of 2000, compared to $10,691,893 as of June 30, 2000. The Company believes that its financial stability will continue to improve during 2000 and would expect that its operating cash flow and available credit faculties will be sufficient to fund the expected growth in the near term.

(3.) Update on Year 2000 Status

Nortech Systems Inc incurred no major Y2K related problems in 2000, and does not anticipate any in the future. The Company will continue to evaluate its systems to ensure that any potential issues can be quickly addressed.
