Regarding Asian exposure: The 1996 annual report states: "The Asia Pacific region was particularly robust in 1996, growing more than 100% for the year. Japan represented the lion's share of our revenues in that region, but we've seen many opportuniies in other areas, including China and India." The other important thing to know is what % of sales is represented by the Asia Pacific region. The report does not mention this, but I don't think it's a large percentage since APC is truly a global company. Maybe you'll get some better info from Debbie.
