NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
JUNE 30, 2002 AND JUNE 30, 2001
(UNAUDITED)

Note 1 – BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND SUMMARY OF ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Integrity Media, Inc. (the “Company”) is a media/communications company that produces, publishes and distributes Christian music, books and related products. The Company’s music product formats include cassettes, compact discs, videos, DVD’s and printed music. The Company produces Praise and Worship music in different musical styles for specific audiences such as children’s music, gospel music for the African-American audience, youth music and live worship music for adult audiences. Products are sold through two divisions. Integrity Music sells all music-related products and Integrity Publishers sells all book products. Products are sold mainly by direct-to-consumer marketing and wholesale trade methods. A principal direct-to-consumer marketing method of distribution is continuity programs whereby subscribers receive products at regular intervals.

Integrity Music Europe Limited was formed in 1988, Integrity Music PTY Limited was formed in 1991 and Integrity Media Asia Pte Ltd was formed in 1995. These subsidiaries serve to expand the Company’s presence in Western Europe, Australia and New Zealand, and Singapore, respectively, and all are wholly-owned by the Company. Celebration Hymnal LLC was formed in 1997 as a 50/50 joint venture with Word Entertainment, for the purpose of producing and promoting The Celebration Hymnal. Due to the Company’s ability to control the venture, the Company consolidates the venture and Word Entertainment’s interest in the joint venture is presented as minority interest in these financial statements. Integrity Publishers, Inc. was formed in August 2001 for the purpose of publishing and distributing Christian books. This division began shipping its first books in the third quarter of 2002. Enlight, LLC was purchased in March 2002 to acquire certain book publishing trademarks. M2 Communications, an artist-based, independent Christian music company, was purchased in June 2002.

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements and should be read in conjunction with the financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2001 contained in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K. The unaudited condensed financial information has been prepared in accordance with the Company’s customary accounting policies and practices. In the opinion of management, all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments, considered necessary for a fair presentation of results for the interim period, have been included.

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, liabilities, revenues and expenses. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Operating results for the quarter ended June 30, 2002 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2002.

For a summary of the Company’s significant accounting policies, please see the financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2001 contained in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K.

EARNINGS PER SHARE OF COMMON STOCK

Basic earnings per share is computed by dividing income available to common stockholders by the weighted average of common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted earnings per share is calculated by dividing income available to common stockholders by the weighted average of common

shares outstanding assuming issuance of potential dilutive common shares related to options, warrants, restricted stock, convertible debt, or other stock agreements.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements:

In June 2001, the FASB issued Statement No. 141 (SFAS 141), Business Combinations, and Statement No. 142 (SFAS 142), Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets. SFAS 141 supercedes APB 16, Business Combinations, and requires the purchase method of accounting for all business combinations initiated after June 30, 2001. SFAS 142 supercedes APB 17, Intangible Assets and primarily requires that goodwill and indefinite lived intangible assets will no longer be amortized and will be tested for impairment at least annually at a reporting unit level. SFAS 142 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2001. The adoption of SFAS 141 had no effect, and the adoption of SFAS 142 had no effect, on the Company’s reported results of operations, financial position or cash flows.

In August 2001, FASB issued SFAS No. 143, (SFAS 143), Accounting for Asset Retirement Obligations, which is effective for fiscal years beginning after June 15, 2002. SFAS 143 addresses financial accounting and reporting for obligations associated with the retirement of tangible long-lived assets and the associated asset retirement costs. SFAS 143 requires, among other things, that the retirement obligations be recognized when they are incurred and displayed as liabilities on the balance sheet. In addition, the asset’s retirement costs are to be capitalized as part of the asset’s carrying amount and subsequently allocated to expense over the asset’s useful life. The Company believes that the adoption of SFAS 143 will not have a significant impact on the Company’s financial statements.

In October 2001, FASB issued SFAS No. 144, (SFAS 144), Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets, which is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2001 and interim periods within those fiscal years. SFAS 144 develops an accounting model for long-lived assets that are to be disposed of by sale, as well as addressing the principal implementation issues. The Company believes that the adoption of SFAS 144 will not have a significant impact on the Company’s financial statements.

In November 2001, the FASB’s Emerging Issues Task Force reached a consensus on EITF Issue 01-09, “Accounting for Consideration Given by a Vendor to a Customer or a Reseller of the Vendor’s Products,” which is a codification of EITF 00-14, 00-22 and 00-25. This issue presumes that consideration from a vendor to a customer or reseller of the vendor’s products is a reduction in the selling prices of the vendor’s product and, therefore, should be characterized as a reduction of revenue when recognized in the vendor’s income statement which could lead to negative revenue under certain circumstances. Revenue reduction is required unless the consideration related to a separate identifiable benefit and the benefit’s fair value can be established. This provision was adopted by the Company beginning in the first quarter of 2002. This change has resulted in a reduction of net sales of $125,000 and $90,000 in the three-month periods ended June 30, 2002 and 2001, respectively, and a reduction of net sales of $198,000 and $182,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2002 and 2001, respectively.

In April 2002, FASB issued SFAS No. 145, (SFAS 145) Rescission of FASB Statements No. 4, 44, and 64, Amendment of FASB Statement No. 13, and Technical Corrections, which is effective for transactions occurring after May 15, 2002 and fiscal years beginning after May 15, 2002. SFAS 145 rescinds FASB Statement No. 4, Reporting Gains and Losses from Extinguishment of Debt, and an amendment of that Statement, FASB Statement No. 64, Extinguishments of Debt Made to Satisfy Sinking-Fund Requirements and amends FASB Statement No. 13, Accounting for Leases, to eliminate an inconsistency between the required accounting for sale-leaseback transactions and the required accounting for certain lease modifications that have economic effects that are similar to sale-leaseback transactions, as well as, amends other existing authoritative pronouncements to make various technical corrections, clarify meanings, or describe their applicability under changed conditions. The Company believes that the adoption of SFAS 145 will not have a significant impact on the Company’s financial statements.

In July 2002, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 146, Accounting for Costs Associated with Exit or Disposal Activities (“SFAS No. 146”). SFAS No. 146 addresses financial accounting and reporting for costs associated with exit or disposal activities, such as restructuring, involuntarily terminating employees, and consolidating facilities, initiated after December 31, 2002. The Company believes that the adoption of SFAS 146 will not have a significant impact on the Company’s financial statements.

Note 2 – LONG TERM DEBT

On March 30, 2002, the Company amended its original agreement with LaSalle to restore $1.6 million of the $3.1 million facility that expired on December 19, 2001. On June 28, 2002, the facility was also amended to increase the available borrowings under the term loan by $3 million. On June 28, 2002, the Company then used this additional $3 million to partially fund the acquisition of M2 Communications, LLC. At June 30, 2002, the Company had available borrowings of $4.6 million under the term loan and $6.0 million available under the line of credit. There was $8.8 million and $4.9 million outstanding under the term facility at June 30, 2002 and December 31, 2001, respectively. There was none outstanding under the line of credit for either time period.

Note 4 – PURCHASE TRANSACTION

On June 28, 2002, the Company purchased all assets and assumed the outstanding liabilities of M2 Communications, LLC. The Company paid, net of cash acquired, $4.8 million to complete the transaction. The transaction was funded partly from operating cash and the issuance of $3 million additional debt through the Company’s credit facility. The Company accounted for this transaction under the purchase method of accounting and accordingly, allocated the purchase price to cash, accounts receivable, fixed assets and intangibles. The Company is in the process of completing the final valuation of this transaction. This should be completed during the third quarter of 2002.

The following pro-forma information presents the results of operations of the Company as if the acquisition of M2 Communications, LLC had been completed as of January 1, 2002 and January 1, 2001, respectively (in thousands, except per share data):

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

Net sales decreased $10.4 million or 27.6% to $27.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2002, as compared to $37.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2001. For the quarter ended June 30, 2002, net sales decreased $5.0 million or 29.5% to $11.8 million, from $16.8 million in the same period in 2001. The decrease in net sales is primarily attributable to decreased sales of the Songs4Worship products and the WoW Worship products. Sales of Songs4Worship products were $8.7 million and $13.2 million in the six months ended June 30, 2002 and 2001, respectively. The reduction reflects a return to more historical revenue levels in the first half of 2002, in contrast to the first half of 2001, which had benefited from the very successful launch of the Time Life television continuity series in the first quarter of 2001 and the resulting product sales of the Songs4Worship products to Time Life. Management expects that Songs4Worship sales in 2002 will be approximately one-half of the 2001 sales. Management also expects that most of the 2002 Songs4Worship sales will be in CBA Retail, General Market sales, and in the Company’s own Songs4Worship continuity club. However, the Company and Time Life are in discussions concerning new project ideas and various line extensions, and several new products are scheduled for release in the second half of 2002. Sales of WoW Worship products decreased $4.1 million to $871,000 in the six months ended June 30, 2002, compared with $5.0 million for the same period in 2001. There was no new WoW Worship release in 2002. WoW Worship Green, the last album released in March of 2001, was the final album under the contract for the series. In addition, there were not as many major product releases scheduled in the second quarter and first half of 2002 compared to 2001. The major product releases for 2002 are scheduled for release in the third and fourth quarters.

Sales in the Retail segment decreased $4.5 million or 26.7% to $12.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2002, compared to $16.7 million in the same period in 2001. For the quarter ended June 30, 2002, sales in the Retail segment decreased $2.6 million or 32.4% to $5.3 million, from $7.9 million in the same period in 2001. The decrease for the six months was due primarily to the $4.1 million decline in WoW Worship sales. The decrease in sales for the second quarter compared to 2001 was due primarily to the decline in WoW sales of $1.0 million and the decline in general market Songs4Worship sales of $1.0 million. Also negatively impacting 2002 sales for the quarter and six month period was the fact that there were not as many major new product releases scheduled for these periods as in 2001. The major product releases for 2002 are scheduled for release in the third and fourth quarters.

Sales in the Direct to Consumer segment decreased $9.7 million or 52.4% to $8.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2002, compared to $18.6 million in the same period in 2001. For the quarter ended June 30, 2002, sales in the Direct to Consumer segment decreased $3.6 million or 47.2% to $4.0 million, compared to $7.5 million in the same period in 2001. The decreases for both the second quarter and six month period were due to decreased sales of the Songs4Worship products to Time Life for their continuity program and decreased sales for the Company’s Songs4Worship continuity program.

International sales increased $1.1 million or 31.6% to $4.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2002, as compared to $3.5 million in the same period in 2001. For the quarter ended June 30, 2002, International sales increased $377,000 or 19.7% to $2.3 million compared to $1.9 million in the same period in 2001. The increase in sales is mainly attributable to successful launches of the Songs4Worship products in Australia and the United Kingdom. Economic conditions and competitive pressures in Singapore and Latin America continue to have a negative impact on sales in these regions. Management expects these negative factors to continue for the remainder of 2002.

Sales in the Other segment increased $514,000 or 13.6% to $4.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2002, compared to $3.8 million in the same period in 2001. For the quarter ended June 30, 2002, sales in the Other segment increased $274,000 or 20.4% to $1.6 million, compared to $1.3 million in the same period in 2001. The increase in sales for 2002 compared to 2001 for the six months ending June 30 is primarily due to additional reserves for product returns recorded in 2001 that were shown as a reduction of sales in 2001. The sales increase for the quarter ended June 30 for 2002

compared to 2001 is due to a combination of a reduction in the reserves for product returns in 2002 that increased sales for the period and increases in copyright income. The Other segment includes revenues from licensing of the Company’s copyrights as well as certain expenses that are not charged to specific segments. These expenses include reductions in the carrying value of product masters as well as additions to the Company’s reserves for product returns, inventory obsolescence and bad debt.

Gross profit decreased $1.9 million or 11.7% to $14.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2002, compared to $15.9 million for the same period in 2001 due to the reduction in sales. Gross profit as a percentage of sales increased to 51.6% for the six month period ended June 30, 2002 from 42.3% for the same period in 2001 mainly because of the sales declines of the low-margin Time Life Songs4Worship sales in the first half of 2001. Another reason for the increase in gross profit as a percentage of sales in 2002 is the decreased sales of the WoW Worship products, which carry a lower gross profit due to high royalty payouts. In addition, increased reserves for inventory and reserves for product returns recorded in 2001 negatively impacted the gross margins and gross margin percentage in 2001.

The gross profit percentage in the Retail segment increased to 45.3% for the six months ended June 30, 2002, from 43.5% in the same period in 2001 due primarily to lower general market sales of Songs4Worship in 2002, which are sold at lower-margin wholesale prices. The gross margin percentage in the Direct to Consumer segment increased to 53.1% for the six-month period ended June 30, 2002, from 42.0% in the same period of 2001, due to the wholesale pricing of the Songs4Worship sales to Time Life during 2001. The gross profit percentage in the International segment decreased to 48.6% for the six-month period ended June 30, 2002, from 57.8% for the same period in 2001, due to the increase in sales of the low margin Songs4Worship products. In the Other segment, gross profit percentage increased to 42.0% for the six months ended June 30, 2002, from (22.8)% for the same period in 2001. Write-offs of product masters, additional reserves for inventory, and additional reserves for returns recorded in the six months ended June 30, 2001 resulted in negative margins for that period.

Gross profit decreased $893,000 or 11.6% to $6.8 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2002, compared to $7.7 million for the same period in 2001 due to the reduction in sales. Gross profit as a percentage of sales increased to 57.8% for the quarter ended June 30, 2002 from 46.0% for the same period in 2001 mainly because of the sales declines of the low-margin Songs4Worship sales to Time Life and low margin Songs4Worship general market sales. Another reason for the increase in gross profit as a percentage of sales in 2002 is the decreased sales of the WoW Worship products, which carry a lower gross profit due to high royalty payouts. In addition, increased reserves recorded in 2001 negatively impacted the gross margins and gross margin percentage in 2001.

The gross profit percentage in the Retail segment increased to 48.1% for the quarter ended June 30, 2002, from 42.1% in the same period in 2001 due primarily to the reduction in low margin WoW sales and the reduction in low margin general market sales of Songs4Worship in 2002. The gross margin percentage in the Direct to Consumer segment increased to 54.5% for the quarter ended June 30, 2002, from 53.8% in the same period of 2001, due to the wholesale pricing of the Songs4Worship sales to Time Life during 2001. The gross profit percentage in the International segment decreased to 51.3% for the quarter ended June 30, 2002, from 57.8% for the same period in 2001, due to the increase in sales of the low margin Songs4Worship products. In the Other segment, gross profit percentage increased to 62.6% for the quarter June 30, 2002, from (50.1)% for the same period in 2001. Write-offs of product masters and additional reserves for inventory recorded in the quarter ended June 30, 2001 resulted in negative margins for that period. In addition, reductions in the reserves for product returns had a favorable impact on gross margins for the quarter ended June 30, 2002.

The following table shows the gross margin by operating segment:


	Six Months Ended June 30,
Gross margin	2002			2001

Retail		45.3	%		43.5	%
Direct to Consumer		53.1	%		42.0	%

Marketing and fulfillment expenses decreased $504,000 or 7.9% to $5.9 million or 21.7% of net sales for the six months ended June 30, 2002, as compared to $6.4 million or 17.1% of net sales for the same period in 2001. For the quarter ended June 30, 2002, marketing and fulfillment expenses increased $163,000 or 5.4% to $3.2 million or 26.7% of net sales, compared to $3.0 million or 17.9% of net sales in the same period in 2001. The decrease in marketing and fulfillment expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2002 is primarily attributable to the decrease in sales discussed above. The increase in marketing and fulfillment expenses as a percentage of sales for both the quarter and six months ended June 30, 2002 compared to the same period in 2001 is because sales of the Songs4Worship products to Time Life Music and sales of Songs4Worship into the general market in 2001 required no marketing or fulfillment expenses.

General and administrative expenses increased $779,000 or 11.8% to $7.4 million or 27.0% of net sales for the six months ended June 30, 2002, as compared to $6.6 million or 17.5% of net sales for the same period in 2001. For the quarter ended June 30, 2002, general and administrative expenses increased $188,000 or 5.5% to $3.6 million or 30.5% of net sales, compared to $3.4 million or 20.4% of net sales for the same period in 2001. The increase in general and administrative expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2002 includes $787,000 attributable to operating expenses related to Integrity Publishers, Inc., which did not exist in the first half of 2001. The increase in general and administrative expenses as a percentage of sales is also attributable to the smaller base of net sales in the first half of 2002.

Operating profit in the Retail segment decreased $820,000 or 26.4% to $2.3 million, or 18.7% of net sales, for the six months ended June 30, 2002, from $3.1 million or 18.6% of net sales in the same period in 2001. The decrease is due to lower gross margins from the decreased revenue, higher marketing expenses for CBA Trade, and higher general and administrative expenses. Operating profit in the Direct to Consumer segment decreased $3.4 million or 82.5% to $714,000, or 8.1% of net sales, for the six months ended June 30, 2002, from $4.1 million, or 22.0% of net sales, in the same period in 2001 due to the reduction in Songs4Worship sales mentioned previously. Operating profit in the International segment increased $159,000 or 28.0% to $726,000, or 15.9% of net sales, for the six-month period ended June 30, 2002, from $567,000, or 16.3% of net sales, for the same period in 2001 due to Songs4Worship sales in these markets. The book publishing subsidiary, whose formation was

announced on June 29, 2001, recorded an operating loss of $902,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2002. Product sales for this subsidiary began to ship in the third quarter, 2002. Operating profit in the Other segment increased $2.6 million or 239.6% to $1.5 million, or 35.8% of net sales, for the six-month period ended June 30, 2002 compared to a loss of $1.1 million, or (29.1)% of net sales, for the same period in 2001. The loss in 2001 was due to write-offs of product masters, increased reserves for inventory, and additional reserves for returns recorded during the period.

Net interest expense decreased $76,000 or 35.2% to $140,000, or 0.5% of net sales, for the six months ended June 30, 2002, as compared to $216,000, or 0.6% of net sales, for the same period in 2001. The decrease for the six months ended June 30, 2002 was a combination of lower interest rates in 2002, loan discount amortization of $82,000 recorded in the six months ended June 30, 2001, and higher average loan balances in 2002. The average interest rates for the six months ended June 30, 2002 and 2001 were 4.75% and 7.7%, respectively. The average monthly loan balances for the six months ended June 30, 2002 and 2001, were $5.5 million and $3.8 million, respectively.

The Company recorded income tax provisions of $182,000 and $445,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2002 and 2001, respectively. The Company recorded a one-time tax benefit of $390,000 related to foreign tax credits for the six months ended June 30, 2001. The Company’s effective tax rate for the first six months of 2002 was 33%, compared to 17% for the first six months of 2001. The Company expects that its effective tax rate for the year 2002 will be approximately 35% to 37%.

Net income for the six months ended June 30, 2002 decreased $1.6 million or 87.5% to $227,000, from $1.8 million in the same period in 2001.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

The Company has historically and will continue to finance its operations primarily through cash generated from operations and from borrowings under a line of credit and term loan as needed. The Company’s need for cash varies from quarter to quarter based on product releases and scheduled marketing promotions. The Company’s principal uses of cash historically have been the production and recording of product masters to build the Company’s product master library and debt service. It is from these product masters that the Company’s products are duplicated and distributed to customers. The Company believes that its working capital and funds available under its credit facility will be sufficient to fund its operating and capital requirements for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2002 and beyond.

On April 25, 2001, the Company entered into a new $20 million, five-year secured credit facility with LaSalle Bank N. A. The credit agreement included a $6 million line of credit and a $14 million term loan. Through this new credit facility, the Company refinanced its previous credit facility with Bank Austria Creditanstalt. Of the $14 million initial term facility, $3.0 million was used for the pay-off to Bank Austria Creditanstalt, $3.4 million was used for stock warrant repurchases, and $3.1 million expired, leaving $4.5 million available at December 31, 2001. The $3.1 million portion expired on December 19, 2001 due to time and use restrictions. On March 30, 2002, the credit facility was amended to restore $1.6 million of the $3.1 million that expired. On June 28, 2002, the facility was again amended to increase available borrowings under the term loan by $3.0 million. This additional $3.0 million was then used to partially fund the acquisition of M2 Communications, LLC. At June 30, 2002, the Company had available borrowings of $4.6 million under the term loan and $6.0 million under the line of credit. At the Company’s option, the LaSalle credit facility bears interest at the bank’s base rate plus a margin ranging from 0% to .5%, or LIBOR plus a margin ranging from 2.25% to 3.0%. The actual margin is a function of the Company’s leverage ratio as calculated quarterly.

For the six months ended June 30, 2002, the Company had average daily borrowings under the LaSalle credit facility of $5.5 million at an average interest rate of 4.75%. For the six months ended June 30, 2001, the Company had average daily borrowings under this facility of $3.8 million at an average interest rate of 7.7%.

On September 26, 2001, the Company repurchased warrants to purchase 818,897 shares of the Company’s common stock from Bank Austria for approximately $3.4 million in cash.

Cash generated from operations totaled $1.1 million and $8.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2002 and 2001, respectively. The decrease from 2001 to 2002 resulted primarily from decreased earnings before depreciation and amortization, a decrease in the amount of product amortization, an increase in the amount of trade receivables, and the timing of payments for liabilities, principally royalties.

Investing activities used $7.7 million and $2.1 million during the six months ended June 30, 2002 and 2001, respectively. These investing activities consisted of the purchase of M2 Communications LLC for $4.8 million on June 28, 2002, capital expenditures for computer equipment and capital improvements to existing buildings totaling $986,000 and $251,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2002 and 2001, respectively. The investments in product masters for the six months ended June 30, 2002 and 2001 totaled $1.9 million and $1.8 million, respectively. The investment in product masters for the six months ended June 30, 2002 relates primarily to development of products scheduled for release within the next six to eighteen months.

The Company announced on June 29, 2001 the formation of a new subsidiary, Integrity Publishers, Inc., to develop and publish Christian book titles. The first releases began shipping in the third quarter of 2002. The Company expects that costs associated with the new subsidiary will decrease earnings by approximately $0.06 per diluted share for the year ending December 31, 2002.

The Company announced on July 1, 2002 that it had completed the purchase of M2 Communications LLC, an artist-based independent Christian music company headquartered in Nashville, Tennessee.

The Company made principal payments on its term loans of $1.0 million and $1.1 million in the six months ended June 30, 2002 and 2001, respectively.

During the six months ended June 30, 2002 and 2001, the Company made distributions to Word Entertainment, its 50% partner in the Celebration Hymnal LLC joint venture, of $250,000 and $0, respectively.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements:

In November 2001, the FASB’s Emerging Issues Task Force reached a consensus on EITF Issue 01-09, “Accounting for Consideration Given by a Vendor to a Customer or a Reseller of the Vendor’s Products,” which is a codification of EITF 00-14, 00-22 and 00-25. This issue presumes that consideration from a vendor to a customer or reseller of the vendor’s products is a reduction in the selling prices of the vendor’s product and, therefore, should be characterized as a reduction of revenue when recognized in the vendor’s income statement which could lead to negative revenue under certain circumstances. Revenue reduction is required unless the consideration related to a separate identifiable benefit and the benefit’s fair value can be established. This provision was adopted by the Company beginning in the first quarter of 2002. This change has resulted in a reduction of net sales of $125,000 and $90,000 in the three-month periods ended June 30, 2002 and 2001, respectively, and a reduction of net sales of $198,000 and $182,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2002 and 2001, respectively.

Special Cautionary Notice Regarding Forward-Looking Statements

Certain of the matters discussed in this document including matters discussed under the caption “Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations,” may constitute forward-looking statements for purposes of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and as such may involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors that may cause the actual results, performance or achievements of the Company to be materially different from future results, performance or achievements expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. The words “expect,” “anticipate,” “intend,” “plan,” “believe,” “seek,” “estimate,” and similar expressions are intended to identify such forward-looking statements. The Company’s actual results may differ materially from the results anticipated in these forward-looking statements due to a variety of factors, including without limitation those discussed in “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations — Risk Factors” in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2001. All written or oral forward-looking statements attributable to the Company are expressly qualified in their entirety by these cautionary statements. Any forward-looking statements represent management’s estimates only as of the date of this report and should not be relied upon as representing estimates as of any subsequent date. While the Company may elect to update forward-looking statements at some point in the future, the Company specifically disclaims any obligation to do so, even if its estimates change.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

The Company’s market risk is limited to fluctuations in interest rates as they pertain to the Company’s borrowings under its credit facility. As of April 25, 2001, the Company paid interest on borrowings at either LaSalle’s base rate or an Adjusted LIBOR, plus an Interest Rate Margin. The Interest Rate Margin is based upon the Leverage Ratio as of the last day of a fiscal quarter. Prior to April 25, 2001, under the Bank Austria credit facility, the Company paid interest on borrowings at either the lender’s base rate plus 0.75%, or LIBOR plus 2%. Prior to September 2000, the interest rate was the bank’s base rate plus 1 1/2% or LIBOR plus 3%. In the event that interest rates were to increase 100 basis points, the Company’s interest expense would increase and income before income tax would decrease by $48,000, assuming current debt levels are maintained. (This amount is determined solely by considering the impact of the hypothetical change in the interest rate on the Company’s borrowing cost without consideration of other factors such as actions management might take to mitigate its exposure to interest rate changes.)

The Company is also exposed to market risk from changes in foreign exchange rates and commodity prices. The Company does not use any hedging transactions in order to modify the risk from these foreign currency exchange rate and commodity price fluctuations. The Company also does not use financial instruments for trading purposes and is not a party to any leveraged derivatives.
