Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

For the Three Months Ended March 31, 2013 and 2012

(Unaudited)

The consolidated financial statements for the three months ended March 31, 2013 included herein have been prepared by Cobra Electronics Corporation (the “Company”), without audit, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) have been omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations, although the Company believes that the disclosures contained herein are adequate to make the information presented not misleading. The Consolidated Balance Sheet as of December 31, 2012 has been derived from the audited consolidated balance sheet as of that date. These consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto included in the Company’s latest Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2012 as filed with the SEC. In the opinion of management, the information contained herein reflects all adjustments necessary to make the results of operations for the interim period a fair statement of such operations. Due to the seasonality of the Company’s business, the results of operations of any interim period are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for a fiscal year.

(1) SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Business — Cobra designs and markets consumer electronics products, which it sells primarily under the Cobra brand name, principally in the United States, Canada and Europe. The Company’s Performance Products Limited (“PPL”) subsidiary sells its products under the Snooper trade name, principally in the United Kingdom, as well as elsewhere in Europe. A majority of the Company’s products are purchased from overseas suppliers, primarily in China, Hong Kong and South Korea. The consumer electronics market is characterized by rapidly changing technology and certain products may have limited life cycles. Management believes that it maintains strong relationships with its current suppliers and that, if necessary, other suppliers could be found. The extent to which a change in a supplier would have an adverse effect on the Company’s business depends on the timing of the change, the product or products that the supplier produces for the Company and the volume of that production. The Company also maintains insurance coverage that would, in certain limited circumstances, reimburse the Company for lost profits resulting from a supplier’s inability to fulfill its commitments to the Company.

Principles of Consolidation — The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its subsidiaries. The consolidated entities are collectively referred to as the “Company”. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

Accounts Receivable — The majority of the Company’s accounts receivables are due from retailers and two-step distributors. Credit is extended based on an evaluation of a customer’s financial condition, including, at times, the availability of credit insurance, and generally, collateral is not required. Accounts receivable are due within various time periods specified in the terms applicable to the specific customer and are stated at amounts due from customers net of an allowance for claims and doubtful accounts.

The Company determines its allowance by considering a number of factors, including the length of time trade accounts receivable are past due, the Company’s previous loss history, the customer’s current ability to pay its obligation to the Company, availability of credit insurance and the condition of the general economy and the industry as a whole. The Company writes off accounts receivable against the allowance for claims and doubtful accounts when they are judged to be uncollectible, and payments subsequently received on such receivables are credited to customer claims or bad debt expense.

(2) NEW ACCOUNTING STANDARDS

Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2013-02,Reporting of Amounts Reclassified Out of Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income, was issued in February 2013 with an effective date of January 1, 2013 for calendar year entities. This new guidance requires entities to report the reclassifications out of accumulated other comprehensive income. The Company adopted ASU 2013-02 on January 1, 2013 and the disclosure requirements were applied prospectively to the current period. Adoption of ASU 2013-02 provides enhanced disclosure and did not affect the Company’s financial position or results of operation.

(3) SEGMENT INFORMATION

The Company operates in two business segments: (1) Cobra Consumer Electronics (“Cobra”) and (2) Performance Products Limited (“PPL”). The Cobra segment is comprised of Cobra Electronics Corporation, Cobra Hong Kong Limited and Cobra Electronics Europe Limited (“CEEL”). The Company has separate sales departments and distribution channels for each segment, which provide segment exclusive product lines to all customers for that segment. Currently, there are no intersegment sales. The financial information by business segment for the three months ended March 31, 2013 and 2012 follows:

	2013									2012

Net (loss) earnings	$	(1,430	)	$	(102	)	$	(1,532	)	$	210		$	129		$	339

(4) MULTIPLE ELEMENT ARRANGEMENTS

The Company bundles the sale of its PPL Trucker Navigation and other selected PPL navigation products with ongoing access to its AURA speed camera database in order to allow those customers who so chose to update their databases for both navigation low bridge height data (perceived as critical to some professional drivers) and speed camera locations. However, in order to receive these updates to these fully functional products, customers must first register on PPL’s website. The Company deferred the revenue associated with the ongoing service period, which was considered a separate unit of accounting. Revenues deferred from this arrangement were calculated using the relative selling price method based on Vendor Specific Objective Evidence (“VSOE”) and recognized over the applicable subscription period, generally two years. A summary of PPL’s deferred revenue at March 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012 follows:

	March 31, 2013		December 31, 2012
	(in thousands)
Deferred revenue—PPL	$	883	$	914

In addition, the Company’s domestic business sells products bundled with access to the AURA database and mobile navigation products bundled with map updates. Revenues deferred from these arrangements were calculated using the relative fair market value method and recognized over the applicable subscription period, generally two years. A summary of deferred revenue for Cobra U.S. at March 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012 follows:

	March 31, 2013		December 31, 2012
	(in thousands)
Deferred revenue—Cobra U.S.	$	368	$	401

(5) INCOME TAXES

Each quarter, the Company estimates the annual effective income tax rate (“ETR”) for the full year and applies that rate to the Earnings (Loss) Before Income Taxes for tax jurisdictions not subject to a valuation allowance in determining its provision for income taxes for the interim periods. The determination of the consolidated provision for income taxes, deferred tax assets and liabilities, and the related valuation allowance requires management to make certain judgments and estimates. Changes in the estimated level of annual pre-tax earnings, tax laws, and changes resulting from tax audits can affect the overall effective income tax rate, which impacts the level of income tax expense and net income. Judgments and estimates related to the Company’s projections and assumptions are inherently uncertain; therefore, actual results could differ materially from projections.

The year-to-date ETR was less than the statutory U.S. federal income tax rate, mainly due to the taxing jurisdictions in which the Company and its foreign subsidiaries generate taxable income or loss and judgments as to the realizability of the Company’s deferred tax assets.

The Company reviews the need for a valuation allowance at each quarter-end. The U.S. operations were in a current year loss position for the three month period ending March 31, 2013. Based on this and other relevant information, management concluded at March 31, 2013 that the Company did not meet the more likely than not criteria for concluding that the valuation allowance for its U.S. operations, which totaled $8.9 million at March 31, 2013 (compared to $8.7 million at December 31, 2012), was no longer required in part or total. The Company will continue to monitor the need for a valuation allowance throughout 2013. Should the Company demonstrate a favorable and sustainable trend for its historic and projected operating results in the U.S., a reduction in the valuation allowance and a corresponding income tax benefit may result.

(6) FINANCING ARRANGEMENTS

On December 7, 2012, the Company amended the Credit Agreement (the “Credit Agreement”) among the Company, BMO Harris, as administrative agent (the “Administrative Agent”), and the lenders party thereto from time to time (the “Lenders”) and extended the maturity date. The amended Credit Agreement provides a $35.0 million revolving loan facility, lower interest rates and matures on July 16, 2016.

Pursuant to the terms of its Credit Agreement, the Company is required to make mandatory prepayments on the amounts outstanding thereunder in the event that the Company receives proceeds under certain circumstances or in connection with other specified events.

Borrowings under the Credit Agreement bear interest at either the base rate or the LIBOR lending rate (each as defined in the Credit Agreement), as applicable, plus the applicable margin set forth in the Credit Agreement. The Company will also pay certain fees and expenses, including a (i) commitment fee on the unused portion of the Lenders’ aggregate revolving commitment and (ii) a letter of credit fee equal to the product of the applicable margin set forth in the Credit Agreement times the face amount of the standby letters of credit and the commercial letters of credit outstanding at such time. The Credit Agreement contains customary covenants, including but not limited to financial covenants requiring the Company to maintain a Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio (as defined in the Credit Agreement) for the periods set forth in the Credit Agreement. Certain fees and covenants for the Credit Agreement follow:

Commitment fee		0.25	%
Fixed charge coverage ratio		1.10 to 1.00
Annual capital expenditures limit (in thousands)	$	4,000
Annual dividend to shareholders limit (in thousands)	$	1,250

The Company’s Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio, which is based on adjusted EBITDA less capital expenditures and cash tax payments in relation to interest expense, for the first quarter of 2013, exceeded the required minimum ratio of 1.10 to 1.00 and all financial covenants for the first quarter of 2013 were satisfied.

As a condition to the extension of the loan and the issuance of the letters of credit under the Credit Agreement, the Company has granted a security interest to the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Lenders, in substantially all the assets of the Company except (i) life insurance policies not collaterally assigned to the Lenders, (ii) any equipment subject to liens permitted under the Credit Agreement if such equipment is also subject to an agreement prohibiting the pledge of such equipment to the Lenders, (iii) deposit accounts used exclusively by the Company for payroll and employee retiree benefit purposes and (iv) the Company’s interest in the outstanding voting equity securities of any of its directly-owned foreign subsidiaries to the extent such interests exceed 65 percent of the outstanding voting equity securities of such foreign subsidiary.

11

The Company’s interest bearing debt outstanding under the revolving credit facility and credit availability under the revolving credit facility at March 31, 2013 follows:

	March 31, 2013
	(in thousands)
Interest bearing debt	$	18,219
Credit availability	$	7,422

The borrowing base formula to determine credit availability includes the following:

Percentage of eligible accounts receivable	85.0	%
The lesser of:
Percentage of lower of cost or market of eligible inventory	65.0	%
Percentage of appraised net orderly liquidation value of eligible inventory	85.0	%
Percentage of commercial letters of credit	65.0	%

The borrowing base is also subject to certain limitations and reserves established at the Lenders’ discretion. If necessary, the Credit Agreement permits an “overadvance” of up to $1,000,000 for sixty consecutive days.

The weighted average interest rate for the three months ending March 31, 2013 and 2012, which includes the amortization charges associated with the terminated interest rate swap described in Note 8,Derivatives, follows:

	2013			2012
Weighted average interest rate		2.90	%		5.0	%

(7) FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

The Company’s financial instruments include cash, accounts receivable, accounts payable, short-term debt and letters of credit. The carrying values of cash, accounts receivable and accounts payable approximated their fair value because of the short-term maturity of these instruments. The carrying amounts of the Company’s bank borrowings under its Credit Agreement approximated fair value because the interest rates are reset periodically to reflect current market rates. The letters of credit approximated fair value due to the short-term nature of the instruments. The fair value of letters of credit at March 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012 follows:

	March 31, 2013		December 31, 2012
	(in thousands)
Letters of credit at fair value	$	3,621	$	2,688

12

(8) DERIVATIVES

The Company transacts business globally with various manufacturing and distribution facilities. The Company may reduce its exposure to fluctuations in foreign exchange rates by creating offsetting positions through derivative financial instruments. The Company currently does not use derivative financial instruments for trading or speculative purposes. The Company regularly monitors foreign exchange exposures and ensures hedge contract amounts do not exceed the amounts of the underlying exposures.

The Company maintained an interest rate swap, which was terminated on July 16, 2010, to fix the interest rate for the term of the revolving credit facility and term loan under its previous Credit Agreement, thereby protecting the Company from future interest rate increases. The interest rate swap represented a cash flow hedge and was recorded at fair value and classified as a non-current liability. Changes in the recorded fair value of the interest rate swap were recorded to Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income (Loss). The termination cost of the interest rate swap will be amortized into interest expense through March 31, 2014. The interest amortization for the Company’s terminated interest rate swaps reclassified from Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income (Loss) into Interest Expense during the three months ended March 31, 2013 and 2012 follows:

	Three Months Ended March 31
Income Statement Location	2013	2012
	(in thousands)
Interest expense	$17	$25

(9) EARNINGS (LOSS) PER SHARE

Basic earnings (loss) per share excludes any dilution and is computed by dividing net earnings (loss) available to common shareholders by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted earnings (loss) per share reflects the potential dilution that could occur if securities or other contracts to issue common stock resulted in the issuance of common stock. If the common stock equivalents have an anti-dilutive effect, they are excluded from the computation of diluted earnings (loss) per share. The earnings or loss per share for the three months ended March 31, 2013 and 2012 follows:

	Three Months Ended March 31
	2013			2012
	(in thousands, except per share data)
Net (loss) earnings	$	(1,532	)	$	339
Weighted-average shares outstanding
Basic		6,611			6,562
Diluted		6,611			6,580
Basic (loss) earnings per share	$	(0.23	)	$	0.05
Diluted (loss) earnings per share	$	(0.23	)	$	0.05

13

The diluted earnings per share calculations include the incremental shares of common stock issuable upon the exercise of stock options that have a market price in excess of the exercise price. When the exercise price of an option exceeds its market price the incremental shares are excluded from the diluted earnings per share calculation. A summary of the options outstanding, the options includable and excludable from the diluted earnings per share calculations and the incremental shares included in the diluted earnings per share calculation for the three months ended March 31, 2013 and 2012 follows:

	Three Months Ended March 31
	2013		2012
	(in thousands)
Options included in diluted earnings (loss) per share calculation		—		217
Options excluded from diluted earnings (loss) per share calculation		354		146
Total options		354		363

	Three Months Ended March 31
	2013		2012
	(in thousands)
Incremental shares included in the diluted earnings (loss) per share		—		18

(10) COMPREHENSIVE INCOME (LOSS)

Comprehensive income (loss) is defined as the change in equity of a business enterprise from transactions and other events from non-owner sources. Comprehensive income (loss) includes net earnings (loss) and other non-owner changes in equity that bypass the statement of operations and are reported in a separate component of equity. For the three months ended March 31, 2013 and 2012, Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income (Loss) included the foreign currency translation adjustment and a terminated interest rate swap.

A summary of the change in the Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income (Loss) from December 31, 2012 to March 31, 2013 follows:

	Interest		Foreign
	Rate		Currency

(13) COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

On August 3, 2012, Hoyt A. Fleming filed a complaint in the United States District Court for the District of Idaho against the Company alleging infringement of certain patents and seeking unspecified damages and injunctive relief. The allegations relate to approximately 30 of the Company’s radar detection products that were sold with GPS or capable of receiving a GPS attachment or that have compass directional ability. The complaint also alleges infringement of one of the patents at issue by co-defendant The Whistler Group, Inc. On November 15, 2012, the Company filed a motion to stay the case on the basis that the patents at issue are subject to a reexamination request in the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office. The Court has not ruled on the Company’s motion. On January 10, 2013, the Company filed an answer to the complaint denying the allegations of infringement. The Court has set a hearing on claim construction for July 10, 2013. All parties have served discovery in the case. The Company believes that the claims are without merit and intends to vigorously defend the action; however, litigation is inherently unpredictable and, as a result, our financial condition and results of operations could be adversely affected by an unfavorable resolution of this action. At this time, no reasonable estimate can be made of any potential loss resulting from the action.

In addition, the Company is subject to various unresolved legal actions which arise in the normal course of its business. None of these matters are expected to have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial position or results of operations. However, the ultimate resolution of these matters cannot be determined at this time. The Company’s outstanding inventory purchase orders with suppliers at March 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012 were as follows:

(14) PRODUCT WARRANTY COSTS AND INVENTORY VALUATION RESERVES

The Company warrants to the consumer who purchases its products that it will repair or replace, without charge, defective products within one year of purchase. The Company also has a return policy for its customers that allow them to return, to the Company, products returned to them by their customers for full or partial credit based on when the Company’s customer last purchased these products. Accordingly, the Company maintains a warranty reserve and a liquidation reserve.

The warranty reserve reflects historical return rates by product category multiplied by the most recent six months of unit sales and the unit standard cost of each model. The Company uses the most recent six months of unit sales in its estimate, as historical experience indicates that most returns will occur within six months of the Company’s original sale date. Therefore, judgments must be made based on historical return rates and how the returned product will be disposed of by, either liquidation or return to vendors for credit on new purchases. The amount of the reserve reflects the estimated quantity of future returns and the expected return costs. The expected return cost is based on the difference between the purchase cost and the return credit from the vendor or the difference between the purchase cost and the liquidation sale. This reserve may vary based upon the level of sales and changes in historical return rates from quarter to quarter as well as estimated costs of disposal, either liquidation prices or the credit given by vendors. A roll-forward of the warranty reserve follows:

	Three Months Ended March 31, 2013			Year Ended December 31, 2012
	(in thousands)
Accrued product warranty costs, beginning of period	$	1,040		$	1,191
Warranty provision		355			2,387
Warranty expenditures		(503	)		(2,538	)
Accrued product warranty costs, end of period	$	892		$	1,040

16

The liquidation reserve represents the write-down of returned product from our customers to its net realizable value. Returned inventory is either sold to various liquidators or returned to vendors for partial credit against similar, new models; this decision depends upon the estimated future demand for the models. Judgments are made as to whether various models are to be liquidated or returned to the vendor, taking into consideration the liquidation prices expected to be received and the amount of vendor credit. The amount of the reserve reflects the quantity of returned products on-hand and the expected return costs. The expected return cost is the difference between the purchase cost and the return credit from the vendor or the difference between the purchase cost and the liquidation sale. This reserve can fluctuate significantly from quarter to quarter depending upon quantities of returned inventory on hand and the estimated liquidation price or vendor credit per unit. A roll-forward of the liquidation reserve, which is classified as a contra inventory item on the balance sheet, follows:

	Three Months Ended March 31, 2013			Year Ended December 31, 2012
	(in thousands)
Liquidation reserve, beginning of period	$	1,134		$	999
Liquidation provision		403			2,300
Liquidation of models		(609	)		(2,165	)
Liquidation reserve, end of period	$	928		$	1,134

The Company maintains a net realizable value (“NRV”) reserve to write-down, as necessary, certain inventory not previously sold to customers, except for that covered by the liquidation reserve discussed above, below cost. The reserve includes models where it is determined that the NRV is less than cost. Thus, judgments must be made about which slow-moving, excess or non-current models are to be included in the reserve and the estimated net realizable value of such models. The estimated realizable value of each model is the per unit price that it is estimated to be received if the model was sold in the marketplace. This reserve will vary depending upon the specific models selected, the estimated NRV for each model and quantities of each model that are determined will be sold below cost from quarter to quarter. A roll-forward of the NRV reserve, which is classified as a contra inventory item on the balance sheet, follows:

	Three Months Ended March 31, 2013			Year Ended December 31, 2012

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

ANALYSIS OF RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Executive Summary

Operating loss for the first quarter of 2013 totaled $1.7 million compared to operating earnings of $161,000 for the year ago quarter, a decrease in earnings of $1.9 million. Key factors contributing to the decrease in operating earnings were as follows:

• Net sales decreased $4.8 million or 18.3 percent, mainly attributable to the Cobra segment.

• Gross profit decreased $1.4 million mainly due to lower sales in the Cobra segment, while gross margin increased to 28.9 percent from 28.7 percent in the first quarter of 2012.

• Selling, general and administrative expenses increased $534,000, or 7.2 percent, mainly due to higher legal expense relating to patent litigation and trademark work.

Interest expense declined $93,000 from the year ago quarter. Other income decreased $140,000 mainly due to a foreign exchange loss. The combined impact of the unfavorable change in operating results and the decreases in interest expense and other income generated a $1.9 million decrease in pre-tax earnings.

The Company’s consolidated tax benefit was $1,000 for the first quarter of 2013 compared to $62,000 of tax expense in the same quarter last year. The tax benefit for the first quarter of 2013 was mainly due to a tax benefit at PPL, which offset the tax expense at CEEL.

For the first quarter of 2013, the Company reported a net loss of $1.5 million, or $0.23 per share, compared to net earnings of $339,000, or $0.05 per share for the first quarter of 2012.

Valuation Allowance

The U.S. operations were in a current year loss position for the three month period ending March 31, 2013. Based on this and other relevant information, management concluded at March 31, 2013 that the Company did not meet the more likely than not criteria for concluding that the valuation allowance for its U.S. operations, which totaled $8.9 million at March 31, 2013 (compared to $8.7 million at December 31, 2012), was no longer required in part or total. The Company will continue to monitor the need for a valuation allowance throughout 2013. Should the Company demonstrate a favorable and sustainable trend for its historic and projected operating results in the U.S., a reduction in the valuation allowance and a corresponding income tax benefit may result.

EBITDA

The following table shows the reconciliation of net earnings to EBITDA and EBITDA As Defined for the three months ending March 31, 2013 and 2012:

	Three Months Ended March 31
	2013			2012
	(in thousands)
Net (loss) earnings	$	(1,532	)	$	339
Depreciation/amortization		840			961
Interest expense, excluding loan fee amortization		136			190
Income tax (benefit) provision		(1	)		62
EBITDA		(557	)		1,552

CSV gain		(458	)		(455	)
Other non-cash items		(244	)		(56	)
EBITDA As Defined	$	(1,185	)	$	1,172

Other non-cash items shown in the preceding EBITDA reconciliation include exchange gains and losses and deferred revenue.

EBITDA represents earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization. EBITDA As Defined represents EBITDA adjusted to conform with the EBITDA measurement used to measure compliance with the financial covenants under the Company’s Credit Agreement. The Company believes EBITDA is a useful performance indicator and is frequently used by management, securities analysts and investors to judge operating performance between time periods and among other companies. The Company uses EBITDA As Defined to assess operating performance and ensure compliance with financial covenants.

19

EBITDA and EBITDA As Defined are non-GAAP performance indicators that should be used in conjunction with GAAP performance measurements such as net sales, operating profit and net income to evaluate the Company’s operating performance. EBITDA and EBITDA As Defined are not alternatives to net income or cash flow from operations determined in accordance with GAAP. Furthermore, EBITDA and EBITDA As Defined may not be comparable to the calculation of similarly titled measures reported by other companies.

First Quarter — 2013 vs. 2012

The following table summarizes sales and pre-tax income by business segment for the three months ended March 31, 2013 and 2012:

Cobra Business Segment

Net sales decreased $4.6 million, or 20.1 percent, in the first quarter of 2013 to $18.4 million compared to $23.1 million in the first quarter of 2012. The decrease was due to declines in net sales for the domestic business and at CEEL of $2.9 million and $1.7 million, respectively. Much of the decline domestically was due to lower net sales of Citizens Band radios and power inverters, which fell 28.2 percent and 29.7 percent, respectively, which in turn is mainly attributable to a significant reduction in purchases by a major distributor who made a large purchase of these products in the fourth quarter of 2012. The decline in net sales at CEEL was principally due to a decrease in sales of radar detectors and PMR two-way radios into Eastern Europe, in part due to a slowdown in the economies of the countries that make up this region, particularly the region’s largest economy, Russia, where GDP expanded only slightly in the first quarter of 2013 and where the winter weather caused unusual disruptions in consumer purchases.

Gross profit decreased $1.3 million, or 19.9 percent, to $5.1 million for the first quarter of 2013, while gross margin remained unchanged from 27.4 percent in the prior year’s quarter. For the current quarter, a higher gross margin at CEEL, driven primarily by a favorable currency adjustment, offset a slightly lower gross margin for the domestic business. The lower gross margin for the domestic business was due mainly to an unfavorable product mix as the percentage of lower-margin GMRS two-way radio sales increased, while the sales of higher-margin Citizens Band radios decreased.

Selling, general and administrative expense increased $527,000, or 8.5 percent, to $6.8 million for the first quarter of 2013 compared to $6.2 million in the prior year’s quarter and, as a percentage of net sales, were 36.7 percent and 27.1 percent, respectively. The increase in expense was due to higher fixed expenses, which rose $721,000, and were partially offset by a $194,000 reduction in variable selling expenses, primarily because of the lower domestic sales. Higher fixed expenses were principally due to increased legal expenses for the Fleming infringement lawsuit and trademark work.

Interest expense declined $93,000, or 36.8 percent, from the year ago period mainly because of a lower interest rate, resulting from a more favorable applicable margin that is added to the base rate or LIBOR lending rate secured when the Credit Agreement was amended in December 2012. Other income for the first quarter of 2013 decreased to $453,000 from $489,000 in the first quarter of 2012 and included CSV income of $458,000 and $455,000, respectively.

As a result of the above, the Cobra segment had a pre-tax loss of $1.4 million for the current year’s quarter compared to pre-tax income $308,000 for the prior year’s quarter.

20

Performance Products Limited (“PPL”) Business Segment

Net sales for the first quarter of 2013 decreased $206,000, or 6.1 percent, to $3.2 million from $3.4 million for the first quarter of 2012. Lower sales of outdoor leisure, GPS and AVN products accounted for most of the net sales decrease and were largely the result of continuing contractions in the UK and other Western European economies. Despite the economic weakness and an increase in competition, sales of Satellite Navigation products approximated those of the prior year’s quarter as lower European sales were offset by strong sales in the UK of the Caravan Club Ventura models.

Gross profit decreased $100,000, or 7.8 percent, to $1.2 million for the first quarter of 2013, while gross margin declined 0.7 points to 37.4 percent from 38.1 percent in the prior year’s quarter. The decline in gross margin was mainly due to exchange losses in the current year’s quarter compared to exchange gains in the prior year’s quarter and to a lesser extent, a decrease in download revenue because of higher 2012 European sales where download fees are not charged.

Selling, general and administrative expenses for the first quarter of 2013 approximated the $1.2 million recorded for the first quarter of 2012 and as a percentage of net sales were 38.0 percent and 35.4 percent, respectively.

Other expense for the first quarter of 2013 was $100,000 compared to other income of $4,000 for the first quarter of 2012, principally due to foreign exchange losses on intra-company loans in 2013.

As a result of the above, the PPL segment had a pre-tax loss of $118,000 for the first quarter of 2013 compared to pre-tax income of $93,000 for the first quarter of 2012.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

At March 31, 2013, the Company had interest bearing debt outstanding of $18.2 million borrowed and credit availability of approximately $7.4 million under the Credit Agreement.

A failure to comply, absent a waiver from lenders, with the covenants contained in the Credit Agreement could result in any outstanding indebtedness under the Credit Agreement becoming immediately due and payable and in the inability to borrow additional funds under the Credit Agreement. The Company believes that, for the foreseeable future, it will be able to continue to fund its operations and seasonal working capital requirements with cash generated from operations and borrowings under the Credit Agreement.

For the three months ending March 31, 2013, net cash flows provided by operating activities totaled $5.7 million. Net cash inflows from operations and non-cash add-backs included a net loss of $1.5 million, non-cash depreciation and amortization of $840,000, a decrease in accounts receivable of $7.2 million and a decrease in inventories of $4.4 million. Offsetting these inflows were decreases in accounts payable and other liabilities of $3.1 million and $1.5 million, respectively. The decrease in accounts receivable was due to normal cash collections, lower sales for the first quarter of 2013 as compared to the fourth quarter of 2012 and an early payment of $3.5 million by a large customer, which was not due until April but paid early in return for a discount. The decrease in inventory reflected the sales in the first quarter of 2013 and the fact that purchases of many new products will be received in subsequent quarters. The decrease in accounts payable resulted from less purchases of inventory because of lower than expected sales in the fourth quarter of 2012 and the first quarter of 2013. The decrease in other liabilities was attributable to year-end management incentive and federal income tax payments and lower promotional and warranty accruals due to the sales decline from the prior year’s fourth quarter.

Working capital requirements are seasonal, with demand for working capital being higher later in the year as customers begin purchasing for the holiday selling season. The Company believes that cash generated from operations and from borrowings under its Credit Agreement will be sufficient in 2013 to fund its working capital needs.

Net cash used in investing activities for the first three months of 2013 totaled $590,000. Property, plant and equipment additions, which totaled $279,000, were primarily for tooling. Intangible asset additions, which totaled $311,000, included in-house development of software for new products, patents and trademarks.

Net cash used by financing activities for the three months ending March 31, 2013 totaled $2.1 million and mainly resulted from repayments of bank borrowings.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

Market risks related to changes in foreign currency exchange and interest rates are inherent to the Company’s operations. Changes to these factors could cause fluctuations in the Company’s net earnings, cash flows and the fair values of financial instruments subject to market risks. Future changes in the applicable interest rate will affect the interest expense incurred by the Company on its outstanding indebtedness.

There have been no material changes in the Company’s market risk since December 31, 2012.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

The Company has established disclosure controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the reports that the Company files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in SEC rules and forms. The Company’s disclosure controls and procedures have also been designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the reports that the Company files or submits under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to the Company’s management, including the principal executive officer and principal financial officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

As of March 31, 2013, the Company carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of the Company’s management, including the Company’s principal executive officer and principal financial officer, of the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures. Based on this evaluation, the principal executive officer and principal financial officer of the Company have concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) were effective as of March 31, 2013.

There has been no change in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the quarter ended March 31, 2013 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.
