                      Management Discussion and Analysis

                      for the year ended 31 December 2003



We take pleasure in presenting the consolidated financial statements of
Technoplast Industries Limited for the year ended 31st December 2003
(hereinafter - "the period under report").  The term "Company" as used in this
report refers to the parent company, Technoplast Industries Ltd. and the term "
Group" refers to the consolidation of the Company and its subsidiaries.



The term "the period" refers to the results of operations for the year ended 31
December 2003, whereas the term "quarter" refers to the results of operations
for the three-month period ended 31st December 2003.



We present below a description of the main events that occurred during the
period under report.

*           On 16 March 2004, the board of directors of the Company approved the
sale of all of the shares and rights of the Company in SMS to a third party, in
return for the cancellation of the Company's guarantee of the debts of SMS to a
certain bank (the guarantee was for an amount of U.S.$ 400 thousand) and in
return for an amount equal to 15% of the annual net income of SMS in excess of
NIS 3 million, relative tothe shares being sold, but not to exceed an aggregate
amount of NIS 650 thousand, linked to the Israeli Consumer Price Index, over a
period of 60 months.

The sale of the shares to the third party is subject to receipt of the approval
of the creditor banks, by no later than 15 May 2004.

In the event that such approval is not forthcoming and/or the Company's
guarantee is not cancelled by 15 May 2004, the Company has the right, until 31
May 2004, to demand the return of all of its rights and shares of SMS.  If no
demand is made for the return of the rights and shares, they shall remain the
possession of the third party.

In accordance with the approval of the sale of the shares, the activity of the
subsidiary, SMS, is presented separately from the activity of the Company in the
consolidated statement of profit and loss in an item entitled "Loss from
discontinued operations".  The assets of SMS are presented in the consolidated
balance sheet as "Assets attributed to discontinued operations" and its
liabilities are presented as "Liabilities attributed to discontinued operations".
The discontinued operations generated a loss in the consolidated income
statement of NIS 16.6 million during 2003 (NIS 11.5 million during the quarter).

As a result of the sale of the rights in the subsidiary, the Company expects to
report a gain of NIS 9 million in 2004.

*           The recovery plan which the Company started implementing in the
fourth quarter of 2001 continues to bear fruit.  This year's results showed that
the trend toward improvement in results of current operations which the Company
exhibited in 2002 continued in 2003 as well.

-           The implementation of the resolution of the board of directors from
October2002 to transfer the operations of the Barkan plant to the plant in
Migdal Ha'emek and to transfer the equipment from the Barkan plant to Migdal
Ha'emek in order to consolidate the production framework and save costs
contributed to the improvement in the Company's gross profit and to the
reduction in the Company's operating loss of 2003.

-           The increasing trend in Company sales which began in the third
quarter of 2002 continued during the year under report as well.
The increase in sales of self-manufactured products offset the decrease in sales
to ZAG.  The increase in sales turnover also continued in the fourth quarter of
the year, compared with the previous quarter.  Company sales during the fourth
quarter of the year amounted to NIS 33.3 million, an increase of 50.1% over the
third quarter of the year, and an increase of 36% over the same quarter last
year.

-           The Company showed an improvement in its gross profit margin which
reached 15% for the fourth quarter, compared with an average gross profit margin
of 10% for the first three quarters of the year and a gross profit margin of 10%
for 2002.

*           Company sales in 2003 totalled NIS 97.4 million, compared with NIS
93.7 million in 2002 and NIS93.8 million in 2001.

*           We present below condensed income statement data for 2003, compared
with results of operations in 2002 and 2001, in NIS millions:

                                              2003            2002            2001
Sales                                         97.4            93.7            93.8
Gross profit                                  11.2            7.3             (0.8)
Operating loss before financing               (10.0)          (13.6)          (22.6)
Operating loss after financing                (12.9)          (15.8)          (29.0)



*           For 2003, the Group had a consolidated loss of NIS 37.3 million,
compared with NIS 16.8 million during 2002, and a loss of NIS 34.8 million in
2001.

*           The financial results were adversely affected by a number of events
occurring during the second quarter of the year and by the loss from
discontinued operations, as follows:

-           A decrease in the volume of operations during the second quarter of
the year due to a reduction in the orders from ZAG and Home Depot, which caused
a gross loss in the second quarter and an increase in the operating loss for the
same period.

-           Non-recurring expenses in an amount of NIS 2.1 million which
resulted from the shutting down of the Barkan plant.

-           Based on the company valuation commissioned by the Company from an
external appraiser, and adopted by the Company's board of directors for purposes
of theexpected merger with Kidron (details of which are presented below), the
Company updated its implementation of Standard No. 15 of the Israeli Accounting
Standards Board regarding the decline in value of assets and recorded a
provision for a decline in value of NIS 6.9 million during the second quarter of
the year.

-           During 2003, the Company recorded a loss from discontinued
operations in an amount of NIS 16.6 million, compared with a loss of NIS 0.5
million in 2002, and a loss of NIS 3 million in 2001.

Excluding these non-recurring expenses, the Group's loss for the period amounted
to NIS 11.7 million, compared with NIS 16.3 million in 2002 and NIS 31.8 million
in 2001.

*           As at 31st December 2003, the Group had ashareholders' deficit
amounting to NIS 15.5 million and a working capital deficit amounting to NIS
44.1 million.  The Group has accumulated losses as at 31st December 2003
amounting to NIS 102 million.  The Group finished the year ended 31st December
2003 with a negative cash flow from operations amounting to NIS 4.5 million and
the quarter with a positive cash flow from operations amounting to NIS 1.4
million.

Notwithstanding the above, the Company is continuing to implement the
reorganization plan it commenced upon toward the end of 2001 and is continuing
negotiations with its banks.
Company Management estimates that implementation of the reorganization plan and/
or successful conclusion of negotiations with its banks and/or the closing of
the agreement with Kidron and/or an influx of cash to the Company, will allow it
to continue its business operations in a regular manner and with a sound cash
flow.

        If the aforementioned plans are not brought to fruition, there is a
doubt as to whether the Group can continue to operate as a "going concern" and,
therefore, may not be able to dispose of its assets and repay its liabilities
during the normal course of its business.

        The financial statements do not contain any adjustments to the value or
classification of assets or liabilities that may be necessary should the Company
not be able to continue operating as a "going concern".

Further to the agreement in principle, signed on 29 June 2003, a final agreement
was signed on 31 August 2003 and amended on 14 September 2003 and on 13 November
2003 with Kidron Management and Holdings Company (1961) Ltd. on its behalf and
on behalf of others (hereinafter - "Kidron"), whereby Kidron will transfer to
the Company, by means of a merger, all the shares of Kidron Plastics Ltd. (a
company active in importing and marketing raw materials for the plastics
industry), in return for an allotment of shares in the Company which will grant
Kidron and Michael and Sigal Zsus 75% of the issued and outstanding shares
(fully diluted) of the Company.  Michael Zsus directly and through a
wholly-controlled subsidiary, controls 90% of Kidron.
In addition, Kidron was granted an option to purchase additional shares in
return for an amount of U.S.$ 500 thousand.

The percentage of Kidron's holdings in the Company was determined on the basis
of a valuation performed by an external expert.
Consummation of the transaction is subject to a number of pre-conditions and to
obtaining the necessary approvals under law, including the approval of the
general shareholders meeting of the Company.  On 22 December 2003, the general
shareholders meeting of the Company approved the allotment of shares to Kidron.
On 24 February 2004, the general shareholders meeting approved the extension for
the consummation of the agreement for the allotment of shares to Kidron until 31
March 2004, and empowered the Company's board of directors to sign an agreement
with Kidron for an additional 45 day extension.


In the past few days, Kidron has asked the Company to come to an arrangement
with the Company's creditors.  Reaching such arrangement is Kidron's
pre-condition for consummation of the merger with the Company.



On 31March 2004, the Company's board of directors passed a resolution whereby
it extended the date for the closing of the transaction until 15 May 2004 and
whereby it agreed to enter into an arrangement with its creditors, as requested
by Kidron, on condition and subject to receipt from Kidron, by no later than 4
April 2004, of the following:



a.  A written waiver of all of the pre-conditions for the closing of the
transaction, except for the following pre-conditions:



-   Reaching an arrangement between the Company and its creditors (including the
tax authorities, banks, and suppliers) to the complete satisfaction of Kidron.
Kidron agrees that this item shall be deemed to have been fulfilled on the date
arrangement with the creditors is approved (in accordance with an agreed-upon
request to be submitted by the Company) by the court authorized to do so, with
regard to all of the Company's creditors, except for the income tax authorities.

-   The required approval of the Tel Aviv Stock Exchange.

-   The approval of the tax authorities of the merger, in accordance with
    article 103(T) of the Israeli Income Tax Ordinance.

-   The approval of the Israel Investment Center.



    These waivers will in no way prejudice any of the rights of Kidron and/or
the Company.



b.  A commitment to realize the option to invest U.S.$ 500 thousand in cash in
the shares of the Company, on the date of the closing, whether by Kidron or by
assignment of the rights to any third party.



c.  A loan in a cash amount of U.S.$ 100 thousand, to be considered as a payment
on account of the realization of the option mentioned in the preceding
paragraph.  In the event the option is not exercised, the loan shall be repaid
within 90 days.



d.  A commitment to close the transaction within 7 days of the fulfillment of
the pre-conditions detailed in paragraph "a" above, but no later than 15 May
2004, subject to fulfillment of the aforementioned conditions by that date.



*           The Kidron Group operates through subsidiaries in Israel and Europe
in a variety of areas related to the manufacture and supply of raw materials and
other inputs to industry.

*           On 1 February 2004, the C.E.O. of the Company, Mr. Daniel Stern,
concluded his employment with the Company.  To the best of the knowledge of
Company Management, his departure does not involve circumstances that should be
brought to the knowledge of the Company's investors.

        On 11January 2004, 1,468,750 option warrants expired out of a total of
2,350,000 warrants that had previously been allotted to Dekel HaGalil Ltd., a
company wholly-owned by Mr. Daniel Stern.  Dekel Ha'Galil still has 881,250
option warrants which are exercisable into 881,250 shares of the Company.

        As of 2 January 2004, Mr. Moshe Katz has been serving as the new C.E.O.
of the Company.

*       On 15 June 2003, Mrs. Orna Patishi resigned from the Company's board
of directors, and Mr. AviadShachar was appointed to serve in her stead.

*       On 22 May 2003, Mr. Yoel Feldshow, a public director, resigned from
the Company's board of directors, and on 31 August, Mrs. Bilha Sova was
appointed to serve as an external director of the Company.

The Group and its Business Environment

General

The Company is an industrial concern engaged in the manufacture of
injection-moulded and pressed plastic products.  The Company has an active plant
in Migdal Ha'emek.

Developments in Group activity

The Company is continuing its efforts to develop new products and markets with
the goal of reducing its dependency on ZAG.

Subsidiaries, associated undertakings and other companies

AFIC Printing Products Ltd. (hereafter - "AFIC")

The Company holds 25.1% of AFIC's shares.  AFIC is engaged in the production and
marketing of cartridges for printers and cash registers.



At the end of 2001, the Company set up a provision to write off the entire
investment in AFIC, in an amount NIS 1.1 million.



There was a significant increase of AFIC activity during 2002, and the company
made the transition from loss to profit.  This trend continued during 2003.

Sales of AFIC during 2003 totalled NIS 24.5 million, compared with NIS 20.9
million during the same period of last year.  Net earnings for the period
amounted to NIS 2.3 million, compared with NIS 1.6 million during the same
period last year.  The company's shareholders' equity as at 31st December 2003
amounted to NIS 6.2 million, compared with NIS 3.8 million during the current
year.



On 27 March, 2003, Itamar Patishi and Moshe Katz were appointed as directors in
AFIC.



In view of the above appointments, Company management decided to cancel the
reserve for decline in value set up in the past in respect of the investment in
AFIC and to include its investment in AFIC in the financial statements on the
equity basis.

As at 31st December 2003, the Company recorded its investment in AFIC at an
amount of NIS 1.5 million, 25.1% of the shareholders' equity of AFIC at that
date.

In September 2001, the Company sold its investment in CD for an amount of U.S.$
350 thousand (at cost), of which it received half (an amount of NIS 0.6
million).  The second half has not yet been paid, therefore, on 28th August
2003, theCompany filed suit in the Netanya Magistrates Court against Amir Levit
and others to recoup the balance of the debt.

The explanations below pertain to the changes in the consolidated balance sheet
which took place during the reporting period.

Current assets decreased during the period under report by approximately NIS 5.5
million.  This decrease resulted from a decrease of NIS 6 million in trade
accounts receivable, a reduction of NIS 0.5 million in the Company's inventory,
offset by the increase of NIS 0.5 million in other debit balances.

The NIS 17 million decrease in tangible fixed assets derived mainly from
depreciation for the period in an amount of NIS 8.4 million, plus the reserve
for decline in value of NIS 6.9 million, sales of fixed assets, the depreciated
value of which amounted to NIS 2.9 million, less purchases of fixed assets in an
amount of NIS 1.2 million.

Current liabilities increased by approximately NIS 8.9 million, as a result of
the increase of NIS 10.9 million in short-term credit from banking institutions,
of which NIS 6.5 million were loans originally granted for the long-term.  Since
the Company is in arrears regarding payment of these loans, and the banks are
entitled to demand immediate repayment of the entire balance of the loans, they
were presented as short-term loans.  These amounts were offset by a decrease of
NIS 2 million in trade and other accounts payable.

The NIS 9 million decrease in long-term liabilities derived from loans amounting
to NIS 6.5 million that were originally classified as long-term but were now
presented as short-term, from the net repayment of loans during the period, and
from the erosion of foreign currency-linked loans.

The NIS 37.3 million decrease in shareholders' funds derived from the loss for
the period under report.

Analysis of the results of consolidated operations for the year ended 31st
December 2003

Turnover

Group sales during the 2003 increased by NIS 3.7 million (4%) compared with
sales 2002, and totalled NIS 97.4 million for the year.
The declining trend in Company sales not only stopped, but was even reversed
starting in the third quarter of 2002, as a result of the increase in sales of
self-manufactured products, which offset the decrease in sales to ZAG.

Group sales in the fourth quarter of the year totaledNIS 33.3 million, an
increase of NIS 8.8 million (36%), compared with the fourth quarter of last
year.

Gross profit

The trend toward increased gross profit continued in 2003.  Consolidated gross
profit during the period increased from NIS 7.3 million (8% of sales during the
same period last year), to NIS 11.2 million (11% of sales).  The improvement in
gross profit derived from the increase in sales turnover, from an improvement in
the product mix, and from the efficiency measures being implemented as part of
the rehabilitation plan.

The gross profit in the fourth quarter amounted to NIS 5 million (15% of sales),
compared with gross profit of NIS 2.8 million (11% of sales) in the same quarter
last year.  The improvement in gross profit derived from an increase in sales
turnover of Company products, and from the improvement in the sales prices of
self-manufactured products, which was achieved notwithstanding the sharp
increase in the prices raw materials commencing in 2003.

Operating loss

The operating loss for 2003 decreased to NIS 10 million (10% of sales), compared
with NIS 13.6 million in 2002 (15% of sales).  The increase in gross profit and
the decrease in selling expenses are the major factors contributing to the
decrease in the operating loss.

The operating loss for the fourth quarter of the year amounted to NIS 1.8
million (5% of sales), compared with a loss of NIS 3.2 million in the same
quarter last year (13% of sales).

Selling and marketing expenses amounted to NIS 13.8 million (14% of sales) in
2003, compared with NIS 14.3 million (15% of sales) in 2002.  The decrease in
these expenses contributed to the decrease in the operating loss.  The decrease
in selling expenses was achieved notwithstanding the marketing efforts and the
measures that were taken to penetrate new markets and the increase in direct
exports of Company products.

General and administrative expenses increased to NIS 7.4 million (8% of sales),
compared with NIS 6.6million (7% of sales) in 2002, mainly due to non-recurring
expenses incurred by the Company in the fourth quarter of 2003.

Financing expenses

Financing expenses amounted to NIS 2.8 million in 2003, compared with NIS 2.1
million in 2002.

Other expenses

Other expenses amounted to NIS 8.4 million in 2003, compared with NIS 0.6
million in 2002.  Most of the 2003 amount, NIS 6.9 million, was a provision for
a decline in value of assets which the Company recognized in accordance with
Standard No. 15, issued in January 2003 by the Israeli Accounting Standards
Board.  The balance derived mainly from expenses connected to the closure of the
Barkan plant.  The provision was based on the company valuation commissioned by
the Company from an external appraiser and adopted by the Company's board of
directors.

Loss from discontinued operations

Further to the approval of the board of directors of the sale of all of the
shares and rights of the Company in its subsidiary, SMS, to a third party, the
share of the Company in the results of the subsidiary was recorded as a loss
from discontinued operations.

Cashflows (consolidated)

Group cash flows from operations for the period totalled an outflow of NIS 4.5
million, compared with a cash inflow of NIS 2.3 million during 2002.

The factors that contributed to the cash flows were as follows: the loss forthe
period in an amount of NIS 37.3 million, plus income in a net amount of NIS 1.91
million not constituting a cash flow, offset by  a decrease in inventories (NIS
0.4 million), a decrease in trade debtors (NIS 5.6 million), depreciation and
amortisation of NIS 15.3 million, a loss on discontinued operations in an amount
of NIS 16.6 million, less an increase in accounts receivable (NIS 0.5 million)
and a decrease in trade creditors (NIS 2 million)..

Cash flows used in investment activity during the period under report totalled
an outflow of approximately NIS 1.4 million, compared with NIS 4.7 million in
2002.  The outflow was used mainly for the purchase of fixed assets.



Cash flows from financing activity during the period under report amounted to an
inflow of approximately NIS 7.1 million during the period under report, compared
with NIS 2.7 million in the 2002.  The inflow resulted from the receipt of
short-term bank credit in a net amount of NIS 6.0 million, offset by thenet
repayment of long-term loans in an amount of NIS 3.7 million and from receipt of
short and long-term credit, net, from discontinued operations in an amount of
NIS 3.9 million.

Sources of finance

The Group's current financing needs are covered by credit lines granted by
banks.

During 2002, the Company signed agreements whereby it recorded a floating charge
in favor of banks and a fixed charge on the building and property in Barkan and
a fixed charge on the building and property in Migdal Ha'emek in favor of one of
the banks, which increased the Company's credit framework by an amount of NIS
4.5 million.

Concurrently, the Group is continuing its negotiations with the banks to further
expand its credit framework and to reschedule the repayment dates of its
long-term loans.  The Group requested the increased credit in order to finance
its working capital needs and to make necessary investments.  Group Management
believes that the successful culmination of negotiations withthe banks will
provide adequate credit frameworks to finance the continued implementation of
the rehabilitation plan.  Company Management also believes that the
implementation of the rehabilitation plan and/or the successful culmination of
the negotiations with the banks and/or the closing with Kidron and/or an influx
of cash to the Company will enable it to continue its business activity in an
orderly fashion with a proper cash flow.

In the event that the plans are not successful, it is doubtful as to whether the
Group can continue operating as a "going concern" and, as a result, it will not
be in a position to realize its assets or pay its liabilities in the normal
course of its business.

Donations

Company policy is to contribute to the community, especially in the areas
surrounding its plants, based on the financial ability to do so.

During the period under report, in accordance with this policy, the Company made
contributions of NIS 15 thousand to various institutions and organizations.

Exposure to market risks and risk management

General

The Group's activity in competitive international markets for consumer goods
exposes the Company to risks deriving from changes in exchange rates and prices
of raw materials, to the risks of granting credit to customers in Israel and
abroad, and to the risks of being dependent on major customers.



The Company's board of directors discusses market risks and the manner in which
they are handled, at its quarterly meetings.



The general manager is responsible for managing risks deriving from changes in
raw material prices (changing selling prices in accordance with the up-to-date
prices of raw materials), changes in exchange rates and the risks of granting
credit to customers and the risks from dependency on major customers.



The Company is exposed to the following market risks:



Exchange rate fluctuations

Approximately 90% of the Group's sales are denominated in the dollar or European
currencies (hereinafter - "foreign currency").  In addition, 90% of the raw
material costs are foreign currency denominated and about 20% of the Group's
other expenses are foreign currency linked.



As at 31st December 2003, the excess of the Group's liabilities in foreign
currency over its assets in foreign currency amounted to NIS 35.4 million.



The above data show that the Company is exposed to two opposing foreign currency
effects - on the one hand, a devaluation of the shekel resultsin financing
expenses because of the outstanding foreign currency liabilities.  On the other
hand, since the percentage of foreign currency linked expenses is lower than the
percentage of foreign currency linked revenues, the Company's operating income
increases as a result of the same devaluation.



Changes in raw material prices

In accordance with the Company's agreement with ZAG, the Company's major
customer (approximately 38% of all Company sales during the period), any change
in the price of raw materials is immediately and entirely transferred to the
prices of products.



With regard to other customers, the Company has no obligation to fixed prices
over the long-term.  As a result, no forward transactions are entered into, to
guarantee raw material prices.  Nevertheless, it is difficult to raise product
prices every time raw material prices increase and under the best of
circumstances, compensation is only partial.

Recently, raw material prices rose by approximately 39%, but the Company and its
competitors have not raised the prices of merchandise they sell to their
customers.  The effects of the increases in raw material prices will be felt
mainly during the first quarter of 2004.



Customer credit risks

As indicated below, the Group has a major customer, Z.A.G., comprising 38% of
the consolidated sales turnover in 2003.  Management estimates that the credit
risk in respect of this customer is not high and does not justify taking out
credit insurance.  Therefore, the Group does not insure itself for credit risks.



The Company entered into an agreement with an international provider of business
and financial data regarding companies around the world, and it uses the data it
obtains to conduct initial and ongoing credit risk evaluations of both its new
and existing customers.



Dependency on a major customer

The Company has a major customer  - Z.A.G., to which it sold during the period,
38% of the total Group sales.



The dependency on this customer is declining.  In order to reduce the exposure
deriving from the major customer, the Company maintains a policy of varying its
product lines and makes efforts in expanding its customer base, primarily in
Europe, the U.S.and the local market.

                 To The Members of Technoplast Industries Ltd.

We have audited the accounts on pages 3 to 42.

Respective responsibilities of directors and auditors

The Company's directors are responsible for the preparation of accounts. It is
our responsibility to form an independent opinion, based on our audit, on those
accounts and toreport our opinion to you.

Basis of opinion

We conducted our audit in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards,
including those prescribed by the Israeli Auditor's Regulations (Mode of
Performance), 1973. An audit includes examination, on a test basis, of evidence
relevant to the amounts and disclosures in the accounts. It also includes an
assessment of the significant estimates and judgements made by the directors in
the preparation of the accounts, and of whether the accounting policies are
appropriate to the Company's circumstances, consistently applied and adequately
disclosed.

We did not audit the financial statements of a fully consolidated subsidiary
whose assets included in the consolidation as "assets of a discontinued
operation" constituted 39% and 36.1% of total consolidated assets as at 31
December 2003 and 2002, respectively, and whose results of operations for the
years ended 31 December 2003, 2002, and 2001 were included in the consolidation
as a "loss on discontinued operations".  The financial statements of this
subsidiary were audited by other certified public accountants whose reports were
furnished to us.  Our opinion, insofar as it related to amounts emanating from
the financial statements of such subsidiary, is based solely on the said reports
of the other accountants.  Furthermore, the data included in the financial
statements relating to the net asset value of an affiliate stated on the equity
basis and to the Group's equity in its operating results, is based on financial
statements which were audited by other auditors.

The abovementioned Financial Statements were prepared on the basis of historical
cost, adjusted to reflect changes in the purchasing power of the Israeli
currency, in accordance with Opinions issued by the Institute of Certified
Public Accountants in Israel.

We planned and performed our audit so as to obtain all the information and
explanations which we considered necessary in order to provide us with
sufficient evidence to give reasonable assurance that the accounts are free of
material misstatement. In forming our opinion we also evaluated the overall
adequacy of the presentation of information in the accounts.

Opinion

In our opinion the accounts give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of
the group at 31st December 2003 and of the loss, total recognised gains and
losses and cash flows of the group for the three years then ended, and have been
properly prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in
Israel.

We draw attention to Note 1 of the financial statements regarding the doubt as
to the ability of the Company to continue as a "going concern", and plans of
Management pertaining to the continued existence as a "going concern".

The financial statements do not contain any adjustments or reclassifications of
assets and liabilities that may prove to be necessary if the Company cannot
continue operating as a "going concern".

                    NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS


NOTE 1 - GENERAL

1.       Company activities

Technoplast Industries Limited (hereafter - the Company) is a public company
engaged in the manufacture and marketing of plastic products.



As at 31 December 2003, the Company had a working capital deficit that amounted
to NIS 44.2 million and the Group had an accumulated loss of NIS 102 million.
The Group concluded the year under report with a negative cash flow from current
operations in an amount of NIS 4.5 million.



In their opinion letter on the financial statements as of 31 December 2003, the
accountants of the subsidiary, Smart Modular Storage Ltd., drew attention to the
loss of NIS 29.6 million in the reporting period (of which NIS 14.5 million was
in respect of a write-off of goodwill), the shareholders deficit in an amount of
NIS 30.3 million, the deficit in working capital in an amount of NIS 36.5
million and the negativecash flow from operating activities in an amount of NIS
 1.5 million.  In addition, the accountants pointed out that the financing of
the working capital needed by the subsidiary is conditioned upon the extension
of due dates of bank loans and the receipt of alternative lines of credit.



In accordance with Opinion No. 57 of the Institute of Certified Public
Accountants in Israel, the Company also included in the results of its
operations the minority share in the shareholders' deficit of SMS, which exceeds
SMS's liabilities to the minority shareholders and the guarantees received from
the minority shareholders by an amount of NIS 5.2 million.



On 16 March 2004, the board of directors of the Company approved the sale of all
of the shares and rights of the Company in SMS to a third party, in return for
the cancellation of the Company's guarantee of the debts of SMS to a certain
bank (the guarantee was for an amount of U.S.$ 400 thousand) and in return for
an amount equal to 15% of the annual net income of SMS in excess of NIS 3
million, relative to the shares being sold, but not to exceed an aggregate
amount of NIS 650 thousand over a period of 60 months.



The sale of the shares to the third party is subject to receipt of the approval
of the creditor banks, by no later than 15 May 2004.



In the event that such approval is not forthcoming and/or the Company's
guarantee is not cancelled by 15 May 2004, the Company has the right, until 31
May 2004, to demandthe return of all of its rights and shares of SMS.



If no demand is made for the return of the rights and shares, they shall remain
the possession of the third party.



Mr. Itamar Patishi resigned from the board of directors of SMS, effective 16
March 2004 and, as such, Technoplast no longer has any representation on the SMS
board.



The financial statements present the SMS activity as discontinued operations, in
accordance with Standard No. 8 of the Israeli Accounting Standards Board.  See
also Note 24.



As a result of the decision of the Company to sell the shares of SMS, the
Company expects to report a profit of NIS 15 million in the financial statements
for the year ended 31 December 2004.




               NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS


NOTE 1 - GENERAL (cont.)

1.       Company activities (cont.)

Further to the agreement in principle signed on 29 June 2003, a final agreement
was signed on 31 August 2003 with Kidron Management andHoldings Company (1961)
Ltd. on its behalf and on behalf of others (hereinafter - "Kidron"), whereby
Kidron will transfer to the Company, by means of a merger, all the shares of
Kidron Plastics Ltd. (a company active in importing and marketing raw materials
for the plastics industry), in return for an allotment of shares in the Company,
which will grant Kidron 75% of the issued and outstanding shares (fully diluted)
of the Company.

In addition, Kidron was granted an option to purchase additional shares in
return for an amount of U.S.$ 500 thousand.



The percentage of the Company held by Kidron was determined on the basis of a
company valuation by an outside party.



Consummation of the transaction is subject to a number of pre-conditions and to
obtaining the necessary approvals under law, including the approval of the
general shareholders meeting of the Company.



On 22 December 2003, the general shareholders meeting of the Company approved
the allotment of shares toKidron.  On 24 February 2004, the general
shareholders meeting approved the extension for the consummation of the
agreement for the allotment of shares to Kidron until 31 March 2004, and
empowered the Company's board of directors to sign an agreement with Kidron for
an additional 45-day extension.



In the past few days, Kidron has asked the Company to come to an arrangement
with the Company's creditors.  Reaching such arrangement is Kidron's
pre-condition for consummation of the merger with the Company.



On 31 March 2004, the Company's board of directors passed a resolution whereby
it extended the date for the closing of the transaction until 15 May 2004 and
whereby it agreed to enter into an arrangement with its creditors, as requested
by Kidron, on condition and subject to receipt from Kidron, by no later than 4
April 2004, of the following:



a.       A written waiver of all of the pre-conditions for the closing of the
transaction, except for the following pre-conditions:



-    Reaching an arrangement between the Company and its creditors (including
the tax authorities, banks, and suppliers) to the complete satisfaction of
Kidron.  Kidron agrees that this item shall be deemed to have been fulfilled on
thedate arrangement with the creditors is approved (in accordance with an
agreed-upon request to be submitted by the Company) by the court authorized to
do so, with regard to all of the Company's creditors, except for the income tax
authorities.

-  The required approval of the Tel Aviv Stock Exchange.

-    The approval of the tax authorities of the merger, in accordance with
     article 103(T) of the Israeli Income Tax Ordinance.

-    The approval of the Israel Investment Center.



These waivers will in no way prejudice any of the rights of Kidron and
/or the Company.



b.       A commitment to realize the option to invest U.S.$ 500 thousand in cash
in the shares of the Company, on the date of the closing, whether by Kidron or
by assignment of the rights to any third party.




               NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS


NOTE 1 - GENERAL (cont.)

c.       A loan in a cash amount of U.S.$ 100 thousand, to be considered as a
payment on account of the realization of the option mentioned in the preceding
paragraph.  In the event the option is not exercised, the loan shall be repaid
within 90 days.



d.       A commitment to close the transaction within 7 days of the fulfillment
of the pre-conditions detailed in paragraph "a" above, but no later than 15 May
2004, subject to fulfillment of the aforementioned conditions by that date.



The Kidron Group operates through subsidiaries in Israel and Europe in a variety
of areasconnected to the manufacture and supply of raw materials and other
industrial inputs



The Company is continuing to implement the reorganization plan it commenced upon
toward the end of 2001 and is continuing negotiations with its banks.

Company Management estimates that implementation of the reorganization plan and/
or successful conclusion of negotiations with its banks and/or reaching an
arrangement with its creditors and/or the consummation of the agreement with
Kidron and/or an influx of cash to the Company, will allow it to continue its
business operations as a "going concern".



If this course of action is not adopted, there is doubt as to whether the Group
can continue to operate as a "going concern" and, therefore, may not be able to
dispose of its assets and repay its liabilities during the normal course of its
business.



The financial statements do not contain any adjustments to the value or
classification of assets or liabilities that may be necessary should the Company
not be able to continue operating as a "going concern".



2.       Accounting policies

NOTE 2 - SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

1.       Financial reporting in inflationary economies

In most countries, primary financial statements are prepared on the historical
cost basis of accounting without regard to changes in the general level of
prices.



In an inflationary economy, reporting of operating results and financial
position in the local currency, without making any adjustments is not always
helpful to the users of financial statements.  Money loses purchasing power at
such a rate that comparison of amounts from transactions and other events that
have occurred at different times, even within the same accounting period, can be
misleading.



In an inflationary economy, financial statements, are useful only if they are
expressed in terms of the measuring unit, current at the balance sheet date.



Accordingly, Israeli GAAP requires that financial statements be prepared in
accordance with historical cost, adjusted for changes in the general purchasing
power of the Israeli shekel at the balance sheet date ("Stable currency approach
").



In accordance with the stable currency approach, the financial statements are
prepared using historical cost values which are adjusted for changes in the
general purchasing power of the currency at the balance sheet date.



The underlying premise in this approach is to translate the current and
comparative shekel amounts in the financial statements to constant shekel
(possessing fixed purchasing power), thereby neutralising the inflationary
effect.


               NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS


NOTE 2 - SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (cont.)

2.       Financial statements in adjusted Israeli currency (cont.)

All figures in the accompanying financial statements are presented in adjusted
NIS which have a constant purchasing power (December 2003 NIS), in accordance
with the changes in the Israeli Consumer Price Index ("CPI" or "Index").

The financial statements have been adjusted in accordance with the Opinions of
the Institute of Certified Public Accountants in Israel ("the Israeli Institute") 
and are based on the group's accounts maintained in nominal NIS.

The adjusted amounts of non-monetary assets donot necessarily represent
realisable current economic value, but only the original historical cost of
those assets in terms of adjusted NIS.  The term "cost" in these financial
statements represents cost in adjusted NIS.



3.       Principles of adjustment

A.      Balance sheet components have been adjusted as follows:

Non-monetary items (balance sheet amounts which reflect their historical values
when acquired or originated - mainly fixed assets, stocks and shareholders'
equity) havebeen adjusted for changes in the CPI from the date acquired or
originated, to the CPI for December 2003.

Monetary items (balance sheet amounts which reflect their updated values or
realisation values at the balance sheet date) are stated in the adjusted
financial statements at their nominal values.  Comparative figures of monetary
items have been adjusted to the NIS of December 2003.

Investments in associated undertakings and the share in the results of their
operations for the reported period are determined on the basis of the adjusted
financial statements of those companies.



B.      Profit and loss account components have been adjusted as follows:

Components derived from non-monetary items have been adjusted on the same basis
as the corresponding balance sheet items.

With the exception of finance costs, profit and loss account transactions
relating to trading items (e.g. sales, purchases, labour costs etc.) have been
adjusted using the CPI for the month in which the transaction took place.

The net financial income/(expenses) represents financial income and expenses in
real terms, as well as the erosion of monetary items during the period.

Current corporation tax includes an adjustment to reflect the erosion in value
of payments on account made during the period, from the date of payment to the
end of the period.



C.      Adjustment of financial statements of associated undertakings to US
        dollars

The financial statements of a subsidiary included in the discontinued
operations, which operates abroad as the "long arm" of the Group, were adjusted
for changes in the Index after being translated into the Israeli currency, as
follows:

Non-monetary assets - at the exchange rate on the date of the transaction.

Monetary assets - at the exchange rate on the balance sheet date.

Income statement items - at average rates.

Differences deriving from the aforementioned accounting treatment were reported
as part of the financing component in the income statement.

5.      Discontinuance of adjusting financial statements for the effects of
        changes in the general purchasing power of the Israeli currency

In 2001, the Israeli AccountingStandards Board issued Standard No. 12, "
Discontinuance of Adjusting Financial Statements for Inflation".  In December
2002, the Board approved Standard No. 17, "Postponement of the Discontinuance of
the Adjustment of Financial Statements".  According to Standard No. 12 and
Standard No. 17, financial statements will no longer be adjusted for changes in
the general purchasing power of the Israeli currency, commencing on January 1,
2004.  Until December 31, 2003, the Company will continue to prepare its
financial statements in accordance with Opinion No. 36 of the Institute of
Certified Public Accountants in Israel.  The adjusted values  presented in the
financial statements as of December 31, 2003 will serve as the basis for the
nominal financial reporting commencing on January 1, 2004.

This item includes current bank balances that are available for withdrawal and
unrestricted short-term bank deposits, with maturities of less than three
months.



8.       Stocks

The stocks are presented at the lower of cost or market.  Cost is determined as
follows:

          Products - on the basis of sales price less the computed gross profit
          margin.

          Raw materials, consumables and purchased products - on the basis of "
          first in - first out".



9.     Allowance for doubtful debts

B.       The difference between the cost of the investment and the fair value of
its assets less the fair value of its liabilities as at the date of purchase
represents goodwill.



This goodwill is amortised at an annual rate of 10% and is presented as an asset
in the balance sheet, provided that it represents economic value. The Company
has a policy of periodically evaluating the economic benefit expected to be
derived from the goodwill and to consider a write-down if appropriate.



A loss on the decline in value of goodwill should be recorded whenever the book
value of the goodwill exceeds its recoverable value.



C.       In determining the Company's share of the business results of
associated undertakings, intercompany transactions have been eliminated.

NOTE 2 - SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (cont.)

12.    Fixed assets

Fixed assets are presented at cost, net of investment grants received, and net
of accumulated depreciation.

Depreciation is computed on the straight-line method, over the estimated useful
lives, of fixed assets as follows:
                                                         %
Buildings                                                2
Machinery and equipment                          4-20 (mainly 10%)

Office furniture and equipment                    7-33 (mainly 10%)



          Fixed assets under self construction include payroll costs, materials
and other direct costs.



13.    Deferred tax

1.       Deferred tax is computed in respect of temporary differences between
amounts included in the adjusted financial statements and amounts taken into
account for tax purposes.

Deferred tax balances are computed according to the tax rate at which the
Company's profits are expected to be taxed.



2.       The Company has not created a deferred tax liability in respect of the
difference between the book value and the tax value of the investment which the
Company has no intention of realising in the foreseeable future.



3.       Due to the uncertainty of future profits, no deferred tax assets were
recorded in the accounting records of the Company or its investee companies.



14.    Assets and liabilities linked to the CPI or to foreign currency

Balances linked to the CPI are included on the basis of the CPI relevant to the
terms of the transaction.

relevant exchange rate prevailing on the balance sheet date, as published by the
Bank of Israel.

Earnings per share is computed in accordance with the provisions of Opinion No.
55 of the Institute of Certified Public Accountants in Israel.

The effect of warrants is included in the computation of primary earnings per
share only if their exerciseis considered probable, based on the relationship
between the market price of the shares stemming from the exercise of the
warrants and the discounted present value of the future proceeds derived from
the exercise of the warrants.

The warrants will only be included in diluted earnings per share, if their
exercise is considered improbable and they have a dilutive effect.

NOTE 2 - SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (cont.)

17.    Transaction between the Company and its controlling shareholders

Transactions between the Company and its controlling shareholders are presented
in accordance with the guidelines of the Securities Regulations (Financial
Statement Presentation of Transactions Between an Entity and its Controlling
Shareholders) 1996.

Assets transferred from a controlling shareholder to the Company are presented
at their cost in the accounting records of the controlling shareholder.  The
considerations paid by the Company in excess of the cost of the assets are
debited to a capital fund which is added to the accumulated deficit.



18.    Use of 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, the disclosure of
contingent assets and liabilities as of the date of the financial statements,
and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period.
Actual results could differ from those estimates.



19.    Fair value of financial instruments

The Company and its subsidiaries have financial instruments which include, among
other things, cash and cash equivalents, quoted securities, and trade and other
debtors, as well as financial liabilities which include, among other things,
short-term credit, and trade and other creditors.

The fair value of these financial instruments is not materially different from
their book value.



20.    Advertising expenses

Advertising costs are expensed when incurred.



21.    Israeli Accounting Standard No. 15

In January 2003, the Israeli Accounting Standards Board issued Standard No. 15,
which deals with a decline in asset value.  The standard stipulates the required
accounting treatment and presentation in cases of a decline in asset value.  The
standard requires the entity to recognize the loss on the decline in asset value
whenever the book value of the asset exceeds its recoverable value.  The
standard is applicable to the financial statements of periods commencing on or
after January 1, 2003.

Adoption of the standard will, in most cases, have no retroactive effect.

The Company set up a reserve for decline in asset value in an amount of NIS 7
million, which was based on an asset valuation that was ordered by the Company
from an external appraiser and adopted by the Company's board of directors for
purposes of the merger with Kidron Plastics Ltd.



22.    Financial criteria

According to the guidelines of the Israeli Securities Authority, when a
long-term liability is payable on demand due to a breach of a restriction or
financial criterion, it must be presented in the balance sheet as a current
liability.

C.      Other information

1.       Tax assessments

The Company has final tax assessments for the tax years up to and including
1997.



The tax assessment officer issued an assessment for the 1998 tax year whereby
the Company has to pay additional tax of NIS 9 million (in NIS of 1998).  On 28
December 2000, the Company filed an appeal in respect of the assessment to the
district court.



In the opinion of the Company's legal counsel, the Company's reasons for
rejecting the assessment are very sound.  Based on discussions held with the
Income Tax Authorities, the Company set up a provision for taxes in its books in
an amount of NIS 5 million.



Subsequent to the balance sheet date, the Company engaged in negotiations with
the Israeli Income Tax Authorities for the cancellation of the assessment made
as part of the expected merger with Kidron Plastics Ltd., as reported in Note
1A.



2.       As at 31 December 2003, the loss carryforward for income tax purposes
amounted to NIS 83 million.



3.       Benefits under the Law for the Encouragement of Industry (Taxation)
1969

The Company and a subsidiary are "Industrial Companies" under the Law for the
Encouragement of Industry (taxation) 1969.



Under this law, the Company claims a deduction in respect of issuance costs and
is entitled to deduct depreciation at higher rates, as stipulated in the
regulations under the Inflationary Adjustments Law.

Company does not comply with the terms stipulated in the Law and approval

conditions. In addition, the Company is entitled to accelerated depreciation in

NOTE 17 - REDUNDANCY PROVISION

A.      In accordance with a collective agreement regarding the introduction of
comprehensive pension rights, the Company makes regular payments for some of its
employees to the "Mivtachim" pension fund, which confers pension rights when
they reach retirement age.



B.      Several employees are provided for by the Company in managers' insurance
policies, which include a severance component.



C.      The amounts accrued in the pension fund and in the managers' insurance
are not under the Company's control.  Accordingly, these sums and the related
liabilities are not included in the financial statements.



D.      The balance sheet liability for future redundancy pay represents the
balance of the liability that is not covered by the abovementioned deposits and
insurance policies.



There is a funded provision in a recognised severance fund for the entire
liability.



E.       The liability and funded liability for redundancy pay at the balance
sheet date are as follows:

NOTE 20 - CONTINGENT LIABILITIES AND COMMITMENTS

1.       Contingent liabilities under the Law for the Encouragement of Capital
Investments are described in Note 8.



2.  During 1996, the Company and ZAG entered into a manufacturing agreement
for a period of five years commencing on 1st January 1996.  On 6th April 2000,
an amendment to the agreement was signed, extending it for a period of five
years commencing 1st January 2000 to 31st December 2004.  The major points of
the agreement are as follows:



A.      ZAG agreed to place orders each year with the Company equal to 30% of
ZAG's plastic injection production in Israel (based on its dollar value), on
condition that the Company has the capacity to produce such amount.



B.       The Company will ensure that the production and packaging are carried
out only in the Company's factories which operate in development zone "A", as
defined in the Law for the Encouragement of Capital Investment - 1959, unless
ZAG agrees otherwise in writing.



C.       In return for the production and packaging, ZAG will pay the Company
amounts based on an agreed-upon costing method of the costs of manufacturing and
packaging the products.  A mechanism for updating the prices was also stipulated
in the agreement.



D.      In the event that ZAG merges with another company or at least 50% of ZAG
is purchased by another party, ZAG is entitled to cancel the manufacturing
agreement upon giving the Company 90 days advance notice.  In such a case, ZAG
will incur no penalties or further liabilities.  This right accrues only in the
event that the merger is with or the purchase is by a strategic partner and the
cancellation of the agreement is a precondition to any such merger or purchase.
Furthermore, the manufacturing agreement can be cancelled by ZAG upon 30 days
advance notice if control of the Company is transferred to a competitor of ZAG.

NOTE 20 - CONTINGENT LIABILITIES AND COMMITMENTS (cont.)

2.       (cont.)

E.       In August 2003, an addendum to the agreement with ZAG was signed,
whereby the liability of ZAG mentioned in paragraph 1 above was amended to an
amount of US$ 700,000 a month and to 40% of the dollar value of ZAG's injection
production in Israel.



In March 2002, Technoplast was notified by the Restrictive Trade Practices
Authority (hereinafter - the "Authority") that the Authority views the
production agreement between Technoplast and Z.A.G. as a restrictive agreement
if it limits competition.  The Authority added that it does not currently
possess enough information to determine if there was an actual restriction on
competition.  On 26 August 2002, the Supervisor of Restrictive Trade Practices
notified the Company that he decided to exercise his authority under the law to
exempt the production agreement between the Company and Z.A.G. from the
requirement to obtain the approval of the Restrictive Trade Practices Court on a
restrictive agreement.  The exemption will apply only in cases in which
Technoplast's commitment to refrain from competing with Z.A.G. preventsan
infringement on Z.A.G.'s intellectual property.

          The Company is a guarantor in favor of the subsidiary, Smart Modular
Storage Ltd., in an amount of U.S.$ 500 thousand.  See also Note 1.



          The Company gave finance guarantees amounting to NIS 240 thousand.



4.       In February 2003, the Company signed a long-term agreement pertaining
to real estate it leases in the Barkan industrial zone.  In respect of this
agreement, the Company willreceive annual rents (linked to changes in the
exchange rate of the US dollar) in an amount of US$ 140 thousand.



5.       Litigation

A.      In 2001, a suit in an amount of NIS 1.6 million was filed in the Tel
Aviv District Court against Z.A.G. Industries Ltd., Technoplast Ventures Ltd.,
Tripod Investments Ltd., Technoplast Industries Ltd., Itamar Patishi, and Zvi
Yemini.



          The suit pertained to the negotiations that were allegedly conducted
in 1997 and at the beginning of 1998, between the plaintiffs and any or all of
the aforementioned six defendants, regarding an agreement to invest in a
start-up company for the development of a paramedical device for relieving lower
back pain.  Notwithstanding the fact that the negotiations did not come to
fruition and that no investment agreement was signed, the plaintiffs claim that
a binding contract was made and breached by one or all of the defendants.  As
part of the suit, the plaintiffs claimed damages in respect of expenses
allegedly incurred by them in an amount of U.S.$ 58 thousand, and the balance in
respect of the loss of future profits.



          In the opinion of the Company's legal counsel, the suit is a nuisance
suit and is factually without merit.  The chances of the suit's succeeding are
slim.  No provision was set up in respect of this suit in the accounting records
of the Company.



B.       For information regarding the tax assessment order issued to the
Company, see Note 8.C.1.

NOTE 21 - LIENS

1.       To secure compliance with the terms of the receipt of investment
grants, a lien, unlimited as to amount, was placed on the assets of the Company
in favour of the State of Israel.



2.       To secure repayment of the Company's liabilities to banks and others,
the Company gave a lien on its machinery and equipment, and on a bank deposit
and notes deposited with the bank.



3.     During July 2002, the Company put a first pledge on its real estate and
plant in Barkan.  During the reporting period, the Company signed agreements
whereby it put in favor of one of the banks a floating charge in favor of banks
and a fixed charge on the building and property in Migdal Ha'emek in favor of
one of the banks.



4.       Total liabilities of the Company to banking institutions in an amount
of NIS 65 million are secured by liens.

NOTE 24 - DISCONTINUED OPERATION

1.  On 16 March 2004, the board of directors of the Company approved the
sale of all of the shares and rights of the Company in SMS to a third party, in
return for the cancellation of the Company's guarantee of the debts of SMS to a
certain bank (the guarantee was for an amount of U.S.$ 400 thousand) and in
return for an amount equal to 15% of the annual net income of SMS in excess of
NIS 3 million, relative to the shares being sold, but not to exceed an aggregate
amount of NIS 650 thousand over a period of 60 months.



The sale of the shares to the third party is subject to receipt of the approval
of the creditor banks, by no later than 15 May 2004.



In the event that such approval is not forthcoming and/or the Company's
guarantee is not cancelled by 15 May 2004, the Company has the right, until 31
May 2004, to demand the return of all of its rights and shares of SMS.



If no demand is made for the return of the rights and shares, they shall remain
the possession of thethird party.



Mr. Itamar Patishi resigned from the board of directors of SMS, effective 16
March 2004 and, as such, Technoplast no longer has any representation on the SMS
board.

presented in the financial statements in separate items after fixed assets and
after long-term liabilities, respectively, in accordance with Standard No. 8 of
the Israeli Accounting Standards Board.  In the income statement, the loss from
the discontinued operations was presented in a single line entitled "Loss from
discontinued operations".
