<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt"><B>Item&nbsp;2.&nbsp;&nbsp;<I>Acquisition or Disposition of Assets</I></B>

<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">Substantially all of the following information was previously reported by
Registrant on Form 8-K, filed July&nbsp;15, 2004, under item 5, Other Events.
Subsequent to the filing of such Form 8-K, further financial information of
Seller (as defined below) was provided to Registrant. Upon applying the tests
under Regulation&nbsp;S-X using such additional financial information, Registrant
has concluded that, based on one of such tests, such acquisition may have been
required to reported under item 2 of Form 8-K. As a result, Registrant is
amending the July&nbsp;15, 2004 Form 8-K as follows and will provide required
financial information in a subsequent filing:


<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">With reference to that Sales and Purchase Agreement dated March&nbsp;29, 2004
between TS Matrix BHD, a Malaysian company (&#147;Seller&#148;), and Trio Tech (Malaysia)
SDN. BHD., a Malaysian company of which the registrant owns 55% of the
outstanding equity interests (&#147;Buyer&#148;), on July&nbsp;1, 2004, Buyer acquired certain
assets of Seller utilized by the burn-in testing division of Seller dealing
with testing of semiconductor components for an aggregate cash purchase price
of 3,500,000 Ringgit Malaysia. The assets acquired were mainly specialized
equipment, such as presser burning board, feed thru-card, high temperature
oven, loader and unloader, for the purpose of the burn-in testing process.
That equipment will enable Buyer to have the testing capabilities and screening
facilities to service the existing customer of the Seller, which customer has
entered into a new agreement with Buyer. A portion of the purchase price
(350,000 Ringgit Malaysia, representing approximately $92,105 (US)&nbsp;on March&nbsp;29,
2004 based on the spot exchange rate published in Federal Reserve as of that
date) was paid on March&nbsp;29, 2004 by way of a deposit and was credited towards
the aggregate purchase price at the closing of the transaction. The balance of
the purchase price was paid at the closing of the transaction on July&nbsp;1, 2004,
of which 1,650,000 Ringgit Malaysia was paid in cash (or approximately $434,211
(US)) and 1,500,000 Ringgit Malaysia (or approximately $394,737 (US)) was paid
by delivery of an approximately six-month bankers&#146; guarantee. Buyer also
acquired on July&nbsp;1, 2004 additional assets which Seller had been leasing for a
purchase price of 917,995 Ringgit Malaysia (or approximately $241,578 (US)).
Except as otherwise noted, the foregoing United States Dollar amounts were
calculated based on the spot exchange rate published in Federal Reserve as of
July&nbsp;1, 2004. The source of the funds for this acquisition was the general
working capital of Buyer. A copy of the Sales and Purchase Agreement was
attached as Exhibit&nbsp;99.1 of the Form 8-K, previously filed on
July&nbsp;15, 2004 and the Sub-tenancy Agreement is attached hereto
as Exhibit 10.1.


<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt"><I>Forward Looking Statements</I>. The statements in this Current Report on Form 8-K
concerning current management&#146;s expectations are &#147;forward looking statements&#148;
within the meaning of Section&nbsp;27A of the Securities and Exchange Act of 1933,
as amended, and Section&nbsp;21E of the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, as
amended, that involve risks and uncertainties. Any statements contained herein

management &#147;estimates,&#148; &#147;expects,&#148; &#147;intends,&#148; &#147;continues,&#148; &#147;may,&#148; or &#147;will&#148; or
statements concerning &#147;potential&#148; or variations thereof or comparable
terminology or the negative thereof), that are not statements of historical
fact should be construed as forward looking statements. There is no assurance
that the transactions contemplated by the Agreement will be consummated. These
forward-looking statements are based on our management&#146;s current views and
assumptions. The Company assumes no obligation to update the information herein
or on the Company&#146;s or its subsidiaries&#146; websites.
