13.9%June 30, 2001 from $9,204,674 in the United States and increased 7.4% Australia. Paperquarter ended June 30, 2000. The decrease
was attributable to the general decline in sales in the office products
revenues
were down 96.4% in Europe, as a resultindustry, coupled with the conversion of the Company's decision to convert from
a direct salesready-to-assemble plastic
storage and filing cabinet business to a licensing arrangement. The reduction in paper sales
in the United States was due to a soft market for paper products and a higher
percent sales allowance for volume rebates. The reduction in GeoFiles revenue
was due to the Company exiting direct sales of plastic products.import representation basis. The
Company sold off the remaining GeoFiles inventory during the third quartermade higher accruals for sales returns and allowances ($1,495,073 or
14.9% of fiscal
year 2002 and does not expect any additional directgross sales from that product
line.
GROSS MARGIN. Gross margin was $877,784 and $2,469,943 for the three
monthsquarter ended December 31,June 30, 2001 compared to $1,233,699
or 11.8% of gross sales for the quarter ended June 30, 2000). The Company

recorded, consistent with historical experience and specific sales arrangements.
GROSS MARGIN. Gross margin as a percentage of gross sales decreased to
9.2%14.2% in the quarter ended December 31,June 30, 2001, from 21.7%24.0% in the same period in
fiscal 2001. The reduced gross margin is
due to margin lost on lower sales volume of $558,645, together with increased
distribution and production costs and the sale of discontinued products at or
below cost.
SELLING, GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSES. Selling, general and
administrative expenses were down 23.4% to $1,752,374 (18.3% of gross sales)
during the three months ended December 31, 2001 compared to $2,287,425 (18.5% of
gross sales) in the same period in fiscal 2001. Decreases in depreciation and
amortization $-214,688, travel $-107,191, reduced headcount expenses $-151,941,
and an adjustment to the bad debt reserve $-180,000 were the major drivers for
the reduced spending in selling and general and administrative.
OTHER INCOME (EXPENSE). Other income of $40,047 for the three months
ended December 31, 2001 primarily represented foreign currency exchange gains
compared to other expense of $15,893 for the quarter ended December 31, 2000,
which was primarily made up of foreign currency losses.
INTEREST EXPENSE. Interest expense decreased to $183,718 (1.9% of gross
sales) for the three months ended December 31, 2001, compared to $324,024 (2.6%
of net sales) during the same period in fiscal 2001. The reduced interest
expense was attributable to lower interest rates and lower bank debt compared to
the same period last year.

NET SALES. Net sales decreased 19.0% to $24,672,435 in the nine months
ended December 31, 2001 from $30,443,025 in the nine months ended December 31,
2000. The decrease in net sales of $5,770,590 was mainly attributable to exiting
the plastic products business $-3,334,435 and the transition to a licensing
arrangement in Europe $-1,457,962. For the first nine months of fiscal year 2002
paper product sales were down 4.3% in the United States and were up 3.3% in
Australia. The decrease in paper product sales year over year was due to weak
demand during the third quarter of 2002.
GROSS MARGIN. Gross margin for the nine months ended December 31, 2001
was $4,619,553 compared to $7,298,813 for the nine months ended December 31,
2000. Gross margin as a percentage of gross sales decreased to 16.2% in the nine
months ended December 31, 2001, from 21.0% in the same period in fiscal 2001. The lower gross margin is dueprimarily attributable to margin lost on lowerthe increase in
accruals for returns and allowances, higher cost of sales volume of
$1,066,532, coupled with increased distribution and production costs of

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
As a result of the rapid growth of the Company's specialty papers
group, the introduction of the plastic file cabinet and storage group, the
opening of its Waukesha, Wisconsin distribution facility and the closing of four
warehouse locations, the Company has required, and continues to require,
substantial external working capital. During the nine monthsquarter ended December 31,June 30, 2001,
operating losses totaled ($925,722).
During the quarter ended December 31, 2001,$(429,957), however, the Company did not have
any consistentlyexperienced positive
operating cash flows of $385,787.
At the date of this Report, the Company's only available source of
working capital. The Company previously had
acapital consists of borrowings available under its revolving credit
facility, which expiredexpires on September 30, 2001. The credit
facility was extended by the execution of a forbearance agreement through
January 31, 2002.
As of the date of this Report, U.S. Bank continues to advance funds to
the Company based on the terms of the prior revolving credit facility. However,
U.S. Bank has no obligation to advance future funds to the Company after January
31, 2001. Although the Company is in discussions with U.S. Bank regarding an
additional forbearance agreement, U.S. Bank may declare the entire amount of the
borrowings due and payable at any time.
The prior revolving credit facility
permittedpermits borrowings of up to $9.5 million subject to a borrowing base limitation
of 75% of the value of the Company's eligible accounts receivable and 50% of the
value of its qualified
-2-
inventories. Borrowings under the prior facility incurredbear interest at LIBOR plus 2.5% through December 17, 2001 and interest at LIBOR plus 3.0% thereafter and
are secured by substantially all of the Company's assets. Borrowings under this
facility were $8,304,950$7,931,861 at December 31,June 30, 2001. DuringUnder the quarter ended December 31, 2001 and duringterms of the period prior
to filing this Report,facility, the
Company entered into several arrangementsis required to comply with Jonathan S. Minera number of financial covenants relating to,
among other things, the maintenance of minimum net worth, earnings,
debt-to-equity ratios and cash flow coverage ratios.
As of June 30, 2001 the Company was not in ordercompliance with certain
financial covenants as required by the revolving credit facility. The Company
has not yet requested waivers for the violations as of June 30, 2001. The
Company anticipates waivers will be obtained in the near term, however while in
default of the covenants, U.S. Bank has rights and remedies available under the
credit agreement, up to continue as a going concern,an including Mr. Miner loaning $500,000requiring the loan to be immediately due
and payable in full.
The Company is in discussions with U.S. Bank for an additional mortgage
loan. There can be no assurance that U.S. Bank will grant waivers and/or agree
to the Company and guaranteeing up to
$1,813,000 in payables to the Company's trade creditors. In February 2002,additional mortgage loan or that the Company enteredwill be able to refinance or
replace its revolving credit facility on acceptable terms when and as needed.
Management believes that its consolidation of multiple distribution
facilities into a Subscription Agreementits Waukesha, Wisconsin facility, licensing agreements with
Mr. Miner pursuant to which
Mr. Miner agreed to purchase 39,750,520 sharesAtlanta Group, BV, and with its Mexican distribution partner, the establishment

products for its Australian subsidiary will improve liquidity and contribute
positively towards regaining compliance with financial covenants. Management has
also prepared preliminary plans for further operational consolidations, should

between February 18, 2002actions already taken prove insufficient to restore compliance and March 31, 2002. The Company intends to use the
proceeds from these funds to move the Company's facilities from Blaine,
Washington to Wisconsin, reduce amounts owing to U.S. Bank, pay key trade
creditors and for working capital and other corporate purposes. The Company
believes that these proceeds would be sufficient to fund the Company's

operations for the next twelve months.
Although Mr. Miner is contractually obligated to invest $5,000,218,
there is no guarantee that he will do so.necessary
liquidity. The failure to obtain an additional mortgage and to extend the
expiration date of the revolving credit facility, or to otherwise obtain
sufficient funds from Mr. Miner or other sourceswhen and as needed to satisfy its working capital requirements
could force the Company to curtail operations, seek extended payment terms from
its vendors or seek protection under the federal bankruptcy laws.
The Company operates in a highly competitive environment. Many of the
Company's competitors are larger, better capitalized and have substantially
greater financial, marketing and human resources. The Company currently does not
have the financial ability to make significant expenditures for capital
equipment, sales, service, training and support capabilities, investments in
systems, procedures and controls, expansions of operations and research and
development, among many other items that may be necessary to remain competitive.
The Company issued a total of $1,200,000 in 10% Convertible
Subordinated Notes dated April 27, 2001. The notes are due and payable on or
before April 27, 2003 and are subordinated to indebtedness to the Company's
senior bank lender. At the option of the holder, the notes may be converted into
shares of the Company's common stock at the rate of $.20 per share of stock.
The report of the Company's auditors dated June 28, 2001 relating to
the Company's Consolidated Financial Statements for the fiscal year ended March
31, 2001 states that the Company's fiscal year 2001 net loss, working capital
deficiency and accumulated deficit at March 31, 2001, raise substantial doubt
about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. The Company's
Consolidated Financial Statements for the nine monthsfiscal quarter ended December 31,June 30, 2001
were prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern and do
not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this
uncertainty.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVEQUANTATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURE ABOUT MARKET RISK
Substantially all of the revenue and operating expenses of the
Company's foreign subsidiaries are denominated in local currencies and
translated into US dollars at rates of exchange approximating those existing at
the date of the transactions. Foreign currency translation impacts primarily
revenue and operating expenses as a result of foreign exchange rate
fluctuations. The Company's foreign currency transaction risk is primarily
limited to amounts receivable from its foreign subsidiaries, which are
denominated in local currencies. To minimize foreign currency transaction risk,
the Company ensures that its foreign subsidiaries remit amounts to the U.S.
parent in a timely manner. The Company does not currently utilize foreign
currency hedging contracts.
The Company also has foreign exchange translation exposures resulting
from the translation of foreign currency-denominated earnings into U.S. dollars
in the Company's consolidated financial statements. Foreign currency transaction
exposure arises when an operating unit transacts business denominated in a
currency that is not its own functional currency. The Company's transaction
risks are attributable primarily to inventory purchases from third party
vendors. The introduction of the Euro has significantly reduced such risks, and
transaction exposures on an overall basis are not material.
If the U.S. dollar uniformly increases in strength by 10% in fiscal
year 2001
relative to the currencies in which the Company's sales are denominated, lossincome
before taxes would increasedecrease by $35,000 and $92,000approximately $28,000 for the three months and nine monthsquarter ended December 31, 2001, respectively.June
30, 2001. This calculation assumes that each exchange rate would change in the
same direction relative to the U.S. dollar. In addition to the direct effects of
changes in exchange rates, which are a changed dollar value of the resulting
sales, changes in exchange rates also affect the volume of sales or the foreign
currency sales price as competitors' products become more or less attractive.
The Company's sensitivity analysis of the effects of changes in foreign currency
exchange rates does not factor in a potential change in sales levels or local
currency prices.

NOTE 2 -3- FUTURE ACCOUNTING CHANGES
In April, 2001, the Emerging Issues Task force (EITF) reached a
consensus on certain issues within Issue 00-25 "Vendor Income Statement
Characterization of Consideration Paid to a Reseller of the Vendor's Products".
The EITF concluded that consideration from a vendor to a reseller of the
vendor's products, such cooperative advertising programs, should be recognized
as a reduction of revenue when recognized in the vendor's income statement.
Application of EITF 00-25 is required no later than in annual or interim
financial statement periods beginning after December 15, 2001. Upon application
of this Issue, financial statements for prior periods presented for comparative
purposes should be reclassified to comply with the income statement display
requirements. The Company has not yet determined the impact of the adoption of
this Issue on the Company's consolidated financial statements.
In June 2001, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 141, "Business
Combinations", and SFAS No. 142, "Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets." SFAS
No. 141 supersedes Accounting Principles Board (APB) Opinion No. 16, "Business
Combinations", and SFAS No. 38, "Accounting for Preacquisition Contingencies of
Purchased Enterprises." SFAS No. 141 requires the use of the purchase method of
accounting for business combinations initiated after June 30, 2001. SFAS No. 142
supersedes APB Opinion No. 17, "Intangible Assets." SFAS No. 142 addresses how
intangible assets acquired outside of a business combination should be accounted
for upon acquisition and how goodwill and other intangible assets should be
accounted for after they have been initially recognized. SFAS No. 142 eliminates
the amortization for goodwill and other intangible assets with indefinite lives.
Other intangible assets with a finite life will be amortized over their useful
life. Goodwill and other intangible assets with indefinite useful lives shall be
tested for impairment annually or more frequently if events or changes in
circumstances indicate that the asset may be impaired. SFAS No. 142 is effective
for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2001. Management, at this time,
cannot determine the effect that adoption of SFAS No. 142 may have on the
financial statements of the Corporation as the statement requires a
comprehensive review of previous combinations accounted for under the purchase
accounting method and an analysis of impairment as of the date of adoption. The
impairment analysis for goodwill and other intangible assets with an indefinite
useful life has not been completed. The impairment analysis will be completed
within the timelines outlined in SFAS No. 142.

NOTE 7 - CHANGES IN ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES
The Company estimates provisions for bad debts based on management's
estimate of anticipated losses. During the quarter ended December 31, 2001 the
Company lowered its estimate of reserves required by $180,000, which increased
the results from operations by similar amounts.
The Company estimates provisions for slow moving and discontinued
product based on management's estimate of anticipated losses. During the quarter
ended September 30, 2001 the Company lowered its estimate of reserves required
by $200,000.00 which increased margins and the results from operations by
similar amounts.
The company is in the process of reevaluating the estimated useful life
of the Domtar license, and may reduce the amortization period of the license
from fifteen to six years. Although such a change in the amortization period
would have no effect on cash provided from operations, it would result in a
cumulative charge to earnings and accumulated deficit of $300,000 and $225,000
for fiscal 2001 and year-to-date 2002, respectively. Should the change in the
amortization period be adopted, the Company will file amended financial
statements for the appropriate periods of fiscal years 2001 and 2002.
