CCA INDUSTRIES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

NOTE 1 — BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. Operating results for the three and six month periods ended May 31, 2012 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the entire year ended November 30, 2012. For further information, refer to the consolidated financial statements and footnotes thereto included in the Company’s annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended November 30, 2011. The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements, in the opinion of management, include all adjustments necessary for a fair presentation. All such adjustments are of a normal recurring nature.

NOTE 2 —ORGANIZATION AND DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS

CCA Industries, Inc. (“CCA”) was incorporated in the State of Delaware on March 25, 1983.

CCA manufactures and distributes health and beauty aid products.

CCA has several wholly-owned subsidiaries. CCA Online Industries, Inc. is active. CCA IND., S.A. DE C.V., a Variable Capital Corporation organized pursuant to the laws of Mexico, CCA Cosmetics, Inc., CCA Labs, Inc., and Berdell, Inc, are wholly owned subsidiaries which are currently inactive.

NOTE 3 —SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Principles of Consolidation:

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of CCA and its wholly-owned subsidiaries (collectively the “Company”). All significant inter-company accounts and transactions have been eliminated.

Estimates and Assumptions:

The consolidated financial statements include the use of estimates, which management believes are reasonable. The process of preparing financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”), requires management to make estimates and assumptions regarding certain types of assets, liabilities, revenues, and expenses. Such estimates primarily relate to unsettled transactions and events as of the date of the financial statements. Accounting estimates and assumptions are those that management considers to be most critical to the financial statements because they inherently involve significant judgment and uncertainties. All of these estimates and assumptions reflect management’s best judgment about current economic and market conditions and their effects on the information available as of the date of the consolidated financial statements. Accordingly, upon settlement, actual results may differ from estimated amounts.

NOTE 3 —SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)

Comprehensive Income (Loss):

Comprehensive income (loss) includes changes in equity that are excluded from the consolidated statements of income and are recorded directly into a separate section of consolidated statements of comprehensive income (loss). The Company’s accumulated other comprehensive (loss) income shown on the consolidated balance sheets consist of unrealized gains and losses on investment holdings, net of deferred tax expense or benefit.

Cash and Cash Equivalents:

The Company considers all highly liquid instruments purchased with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents.

Short-Term Investments and Marketable Securities:

Short-term investments and marketable securities consist of certificates of deposits, corporate and government bonds, and equity securities. The Company has classified its investments as Available-for-Sale securities. Accordingly, such investments are reported at fair market value, with the resultant unrealized gains and losses reported as a separate component of shareholders’ equity. Fair value for Available-for-Sale securities is determined by reference to quoted market prices or other relevant information.

Accounts Receivable:

Accounts receivable consist of trade receivables recorded at original invoice amount, less an estimated allowance for uncollectible amounts. The accounts receivable balance is further reduced by allowance for cooperative advertising and reserves for returns which are anticipated to be taken as credits against the balances as of May 31, 2012. The allowances and reserves which are anticipated to be deducted from future invoices are included in accrued liabilities. Trade credit is generally extended on a short term basis; thus trade receivables do not bear interest, although a finance charge may be applied to receivables that are past due. Trade receivables are periodically evaluated for collectability based on past credit history with customers and their current financial condition. Changes in the estimated collectability of trade receivables are recorded in the results of operations for the period in which the estimate is revised. Trade receivables that are deemed uncollectible are offset against the allowance for uncollectible accounts. The Company generally does not require collateral for trade receivables.

NOTE 3 —SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)

Inventories:

Inventories are stated at the lower of cost (weighted average) or market. Product returns are recorded in inventory when they are received at the lower of their original cost or market, as appropriate. Obsolete inventory is written off and its value is removed from inventory at the time its obsolescence is determined.

Property and Equipment and Depreciation and Amortization:

Property and equipment are stated at cost. The Company charges to expense repairs and maintenance items, while major improvements and betterments are capitalized.

When the Company sells or otherwise disposes of property and equipment items, the cost and related accumulated depreciation are removed from the respective accounts and any gain or loss is included in earnings.

Depreciation and amortization are provided utilizing the straight-line method over the following estimated useful lives or lease terms of the assets, whichever is shorter:

Machinery and equipment	5-7 Years
Furniture and fixtures	3-10 Years
Tools, dies and masters	3 Years
Transportation equipment	5 Years
Leasehold improvements	Remaining life of the lease (ranging from 1-12 years)

Intangible Assets:

Intangible assets, which consist of patents and trademarks, are stated at cost. Patents are amortized on the straight-line method over a period of 17 years. Patents are reviewed annually for impairment or when events or changes in business indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable. Trademarks are reviewed for impairment annually or more frequently if impairment conditions occur.

Web Site Costs:

Certain costs incurred in creating the graphics and content of the Company’s web site have been capitalized in accordance with the Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 350, “Intangibles – Goodwill and Other”, issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”). The Company had determined that these costs would be amortized over a two-year period. Web site design and conceptual costs are expensed as incurred.

Financial Instruments:

The carrying value of assets and liabilities considered financial instruments approximate their respective fair value.

NOTE 3 —SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)

Income Taxes:

Income taxes are accounted for under ASC Topic 740 “Income Taxes”, which utilizes the asset and liability method. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for future tax consequences attributable to the temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities as recorded on the Company’s financial statements and the carrying amounts as reflected on the Company’s income tax return. In addition, the portion of charitable contributions that cannot be deducted in the current period and are carried forward to future periods are also reflected in the deferred tax assets. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are valued using the tax rates expected to apply in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance when, in the opinion of management, it is more likely than not that some portion, or all of the deferred tax asset will not be realized.

Earnings Per Common Share:

Basic earnings (loss) per share are calculated in accordance with ASC Topic 260, “Earnings Per Share”, which requires using the average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the year. Diluted earnings (loss) per share is computed on the basis of the average number of common shares outstanding plus the dilutive effect of any common stock equivalents using the “treasury stock method”. Common stock equivalents consist of stock options.

Revenue Recognition:

The Company recognizes sales in accordance with ASC Topic 605 “Revenue Recognition”. Revenue is recognized upon shipment of merchandise. Net sales comprise gross revenue less expected returns, trade discounts, customer allowances and various sales incentives. Included in sales incentives are coupons that the Company issues that are redeemed by its customers. Redemptions are handled by a coupon national clearing house. The Company also has estimated that there is an approximate six week lag in coupon redemptions, with the estimated cost recorded as an accrued liability. Although no legal right of return exists between the customer and the Company, returns are accepted if it is in the best interests of the Company’s relationship with the customer. The Company, therefore, records a reserve for returns based on the historical returns as a percentage of sales in the five preceding months, adjusting for returns that can be put back into inventory, and a specific reserve based on customer circumstances. Those returns which are anticipated to be taken as credits against the outstanding invoices as of the date of the financial statements are offset against the accounts receivable. The reserves which are anticipated to be deducted from future invoices are included in accrued liabilities.

NOTE 3 —SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)

Sales Incentives:

In accordance with ASC Topic 605-10-S99, “Revenue Recognition”, the Company has accounted for certain sales incentives offered to customers by charging them directly to sales as opposed to advertising and promotional expense. These accounting adjustments under ASC Topic 605-10-S99 do not affect net income (loss).

Advertising Costs:

The Company’s policy for financial reporting is to charge advertising cost to expense as incurred. Advertising, cooperative and promotional expenses for the three months ended May 31, 2012 and May 31, 2011 were $1,992,831 and $1,784,845, respectively. Advertising, cooperative and promotional expenses for the six months ended May 31, 2012 and May 31, 2011 were $4,076,422 and $3,448,793, respectively.

Freight costs included for the three months ended May 31, 2012 and May 31, 2011 were $877,369 and $803,338, respectively. Freight costs included for the six months ended May 31, 2012 and 2011 were $1,605,695 and $1,400,016, respectively.

The Company adopted ASC Topic 820, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures” as of December 1, 2007, which expands disclosures about investments that are measured and reported at fair market value. ASC Topic 820 established a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques utilized to measure fair value into three broad levels as follows:

Level 1 – Quoted market prices in active markets for the identical asset or liability that the reporting entity has ability to access at measurement date.

Level 2 – Quoted market prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active, and where fair value is determined through the use of models or other valuation methodologies.

Level 3 – Unobserved inputs for the asset or liability. Fair value is determined by the reporting entity’s own assumptions utilizing the best information available, and includes situations where there is little market activity for the investment.

NOTE 12 —INCOME TAXES

CCA and its subsidiaries file a consolidated federal income tax return.

The Company previously adopted the provisions of ASC Subtopic 740-10-25, “Uncertain Tax Positions”. Management believes that there were no unrecognized tax benefits, or tax positions that would result in uncertainty regarding the deductions taken, as of May 31, 2012 and May 31, 2011. ASC Subtopic 740-10-25 prescribes a recognition threshold and a measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition and measurement of tax positions taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. For those benefits to be recognized, a tax position must be more-likely-than-not to be sustained upon examination by taxing authorities. There were penalties and related interest of $6,661 for the fiscal year to date ended May 31, 2012, and no penalties for the fiscal year to date ended May 31, 2011.

As of May 31, 2012, the Company had unrealized gain on its investments of $52,030. This amount was reduced by a deferred tax (expense) of $(20,760), of which a $77,594 benefit was recorded in prior fiscal years and an expense of $(98,354) was recorded in the six months ended May 31, 2012. The deferred tax expense has been recorded as part of the deferred tax asset, and offset against the unrealized gains on marketable securities reported on the consolidated balance sheet. The charitable contributions portion of the deferred tax

asset has $122,580 that has been reclassified as a long-term asset, based on an estimate of the amount that will be realizable in periods greater than twelve months from May 31, 2012.

At May 31, 2012 and November 30, 2011, respectively, the Company had temporary differences arising from the following:

OVERVIEW

The Company had, for the three month period ended May 31, 2012, net income of $302,100 as compared to a net loss of $(247,268) for the three months ended May 31, 2011. Net sales for the second quarter of fiscal 2012 were $14,596,899 as compared to $12,797,773 for the same period in 2011. The Company had, for the six month period ended May 31, 2012, net income of $389,634 as compared to net income of $95,837 for the six months ended May 31, 2012. Net sales for the six months ended May 31, 2012 were $28,127,970 as compared to $25,208,687 for the same period in fiscal 2011. As of May 31, 2012 the Company had $31,709,217 in current assets and $10,337,877 in current liabilities. The Company does not have any loan or line of credit bank debt.

OPERATING RESULTS FOR THE THREE MONTHS ENDED MAY 31, 2012

For the three-month period ended May 31, 2012, the Company had total revenues of $14,710,472 and a net income of $302,100 after provision for income taxes of $199,653. For the same three month period in 2011, total revenues were $12,885,313 and net loss of $(247,268) after a (benefit from) income taxes of $(205,771). Basic and fully diluted earnings per share were $0.04 for the second quarter of fiscal 2012 as compared to a basic and fully diluted loss per share of $(0.04) for the second quarter of fiscal 2011. In accordance with ASC Topic 605-10-S99, “Revenue Recognition”, the Company has accounted for certain sales incentives offered to customers by charging them directly to sales as opposed to advertising and promotional expenses. Net sales for the second quarter of fiscal 2012 were reduced by $1,889,318 and offset by an equal reduction of trade promotional expenses, which were included in the Company’s advertising expense. In the same period of the prior year, net sales were reduced by $1,383,690 and trade promotion was credited by that amount. These accounting adjustments under ASC Topic 605-10-S99 do not affect net income.

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

The Company’s net sales increased $1,799,126 to $14,596,899 for the three month period ended May 31, 2012 from $12,797,773 for the three month period ended May 31, 2011. Sales returns and allowances, not including sales incentives, were 9.4% of gross sales for the three month period ended May 31, 2012 as compared to 10.0% for the same period last year. Sales incentives consist of co-operative advertising with the Company’s retail partners and coupons. The amount of co-operative advertising included in sales incentives increased by $400,318 to $1,538,115 in the second quarter of 2012 as compared to $1,137,797 in the same period in 2011. The cost of the coupons issued by the Company was $351,203 for the second quarter of 2012 as compared to $245,893 for the same period in 2011. The Company uses a national clearing house for the receipt and processing of coupons from our retail partners. The national clearing house renders invoices to the Company on a weekly basis for coupons that they have processed which are recorded as an expense in the period for which the invoice is dated. The Company also records an expense accrual at the end of each period equal to the prior six weeks of invoices rendered based on information from the national clearing house that there is an average lag time of six weeks between the time that the retailer receives the coupon and when the Company receives the invoice. The amount recorded as an expense or an accrual includes the retailer cost of the coupon in addition to any processing charges by the national coupon clearing house. Coupons are issued by the Company to be used with the purchase of specific products, with an expiration date noted on the coupon.

The Company’s net sales by category for the second quarter of fiscal 2012 as compared to the second quarter of fiscal 2011 were:

	Three Months Ended				Three Months Ended

	$	14,596,899	100.0	%	$	12,797,773	100.0	%

The following were factors that affected net sales for the three months ended May 31, 2012:

• Net sales of nail care products increased $2,186,487 for the three months ended May 31, 2012, as compared to the same period in fiscal 2011, due to the success of Gel Perfect. The Company introduced Gel Perfect, a UV free gel color nail polish, at the end of the third quarter of fiscal 2011. The Company anticipates increased distribution in the second half of fiscal 2012.

22

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

• Net sales of the Company’s diet products decreased 19.2% in the second quarter of 2012 as compared to the second quarter of 2011. However, net sales increased 5.3% as compared to the first quarter of 2012. The decrease in net sales of diet products in the second quarter of 2012 as compared to second quarter of 2011 was due to lower gross sales as a result of decreased distribution of certain items and decreased promotional activity, reflective of the overall industry category decline.

• Net sales of skin care products increased 7.3% for the three months ended May 31, 2012 as compared to the second quarter in fiscal 2011. The increase was a result of higher gross sales from increased distribution together with lower product returns and trade promotional expenses.

• Gross sales, net of returns of Plus White, the Company’s oral care brand were $155,265 higher in the second quarter of fiscal 2012, as compared to the second quarter of fiscal 2011; however trade promotional expenses were $217,797 higher, resulting in a net sales decrease of $62,172.

	Three Months Ending May 31,
	2012			2011
Sales of health and beauty aid products — Net	$	14,596,899		$	12,797,773
Cost of Sales		6,319,109			4,988,813
Gross Margin	$	8,277,790		$	7,808,960
		56.7	%		61.0	%

The gross margin for the second quarter of fiscal 2012 decreased to 56.7%, as compared to 61.0% for the second quarter of fiscal 2011. The cost of goods increased, in part, due to the change in product mix, with increased sales in the nail care category. The Company had net sales of $2,352,815 of Gel Perfect in the second quarter of fiscal 2012. The Gel Perfect product was introduced at the end of the third quarter of fiscal 2011, and accordingly there were no sales in the second quarter of fiscal 2011. Gel Perfect has a higher cost of goods than most of the Company’s other product lines, affecting the overall cost of goods as a percentage of sales. The Company has also experienced increases in labor, plastics, corrugate and chemical costs for some of its other brands, as well as the effect of the increases in oil prices. It is possible that the Company will experience further increases if the cost of oil continues to rise.

Selling, general and administrative expenses decreased to $5,694,421 for the three months ended May 31, 2012 as compared to $6,344,647 for the same period in 2011, or a decrease of $650,226. The decrease was primarily due to an expense of $600,000 that was recorded in the second quarter of fiscal 2011 as a result of the settlement agreement with Alleghany Pharmacal Corporation (see the 10K for fiscal 2011, Part I, Item 1(f)(i) for further information regarding the settlement).

23

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

Advertising expense was $1,992,831 for the quarter ended May 31, 2012 as compared to $1,784,845 for the quarter ended May 31, 2011, or an increase of $207,986. The increase was due to an increase in media advertising during the second quarter of 2012, the cost of developing new commercials, and higher co-operative advertising with the Company’s retail partners that is classified as a promotional expense, in order to support the Company’s brands. The Company’s advertising expense changes from quarter to quarter based on the timing of the Company’s promotions.

Income before provision for income taxes was $501,753 for the quarter ended May 31, 2012 as compared to a pre-tax loss of $(453,039) for the quarter ended May 31, 2011. The effective tax rate for the second quarter of fiscal 2012 was 39.8% versus 45.4% for the second quarter of fiscal 2011. The provision for income taxes of $199,653 for the second quarter of 2012 included a current tax expense for federal taxes of $180,130, $57,071 for state income taxes and a benefit of $(37,548) for deferred tax. The federal and state income tax expense is based on an estimate of the tax rates that the Company will be paying for fiscal 2012. The deferred tax benefit is primarily due to changes in the Company’s deferred tax assets. The deferred tax assets are a result of timing differences between when expenses are deductible on the Company’s books and when they are deductible on the Company’s tax returns.

OPERATING RESULTS FOR THE SIX MONTHS ENDED MAY 31, 2012

For the six month period ended May 31, 2012, the Company had total revenues of $28,398,720 and net income of $389,634 after provision for income taxes of $266,565. For the same six month period in 2011, total revenues were $25,456,419 and net income of $95,837 after a provision for income taxes of $47,742. Basic and fully diluted earnings per share were $0.06 for the six months ended May 31, 2012 as compared to basic and fully diluted earnings per share of $0.01 for the same period in fiscal 2011. In accordance with ASC Topic 605-10-S99, “Revenue Recognition”, the Company has accounted for certain sales incentives offered to customers by charging them directly to sales as opposed to advertising and promotional expenses. Net sales for the first six months of 2012 were reduced by $3,648,078 and offset by an equal reduction of trade promotional expenses, which were included in the Company’s advertising expense budget. In the same period of the prior year, net sales were reduced by $2,633,552 and trade promotion was credited by that amount. These accounting adjustments under ASC Topic 605-10-S99 do not affect net income.

The Company’s net sales increased $2,919,283 to $28,127,970 for the six month period ended May 31, 2012 from $25,208,687 for the six month period ended May 31, 2011. Sales returns and allowances, not including sales incentives, were 8.1% of gross sales for the six month period ended May 31, 2012 as compared to 8.0% for the same period last year. Sales incentives consist of co-operative advertising with the Company’s retail partners and coupons. The amount of co-operative advertising included in sales incentives increased by $684,973 to $2,893,953 for the first half of 2012 as compared to $2,208,980 for the same period in 2011. The cost of the coupons issued by the Company was $754,125 for the first six months of 2012 as compared to $424,572 for the same period in 2011.

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

The following table is the Company’s net sales by category for the first six months of 2012 as compared to the first six months of 2011:

	Six Months Ended				Six Months Ended
	May 31, 2012				May 31, 2011
Catergory	Net Sales				Net Sales
Skin Care	$	8,939,777	31.8	%	$	8,333,607	33.1	%
Nail Care		7,353,207	26.1	%		2,039,370	8.1	%
Dietary Supplement		5,477,160	19.4	%		8,266,825	32.7	%
Oral Care		5,391,873	19.2	%		5,443,914	21.6	%
Fragrance		442,750	1.6	%		548,201	2.2	%
Miscellaneous		436,806	1.6	%		324,559	1.3	%

	$	28,127,970	100.0	%	$	25,208,687	100.0	%

The following were factors that affected net sales for the six months ended May 31, 2012:

• Net sales of nail care products increased $5,313,837 for the six months ended May 31, 2012, as compared to the same period in fiscal 2011, due to the success of Gel Perfect. The Company introduced Gel Perfect, a UV free gel color nail polish, at the end of the third quarter of fiscal 2011. The Company anticipates increased distribution in the second half of fiscal 2012.

• Net sales of the Company’s diet products decreased 33.7% in the first half of 2012 as compared to the first half of 2011. However, net sales for the first half of 2012 increased 21.2% as compared to the second half of 2011. The decrease in net sales of diet products in the first six months of 2012 as compared to the same period in fiscal 2011 was due to lower gross sales as a result of decreased distribution of certain items and decreased promotional activity, reflective of the overall industry category decline.

• Net sales of skin care products increased 7.3% for the six months ended May 31, 2012 as compared to the same period in fiscal 2011. The increase was a result of higher gross sales from increased distribution together with lower product returns.

• Gross sales, net of returns of Plus White, the Company’s oral care brand were $537,843 higher in the first half of fiscal 2012, as compared to the first half of fiscal 2011; however product returns and trade promotional expenses were $589,884 higher, resulting in a net sales decrease of $52,041.

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

The gross margin for the first half of fiscal 2012 decreased to 56.2%, as compared to 61.4% for the first half of fiscal 2011. The cost of goods increased, in part, due to the change in product mix, with increased sales in the nail care category. The Company had net sales of $5,646,746 of Gel Perfect in the first half of fiscal 2012. The Gel Perfect product was introduced at the end of the third quarter of fiscal 2011, and accordingly there were no sales in the first half of fiscal 2011. Gel Perfect has a higher cost of goods than most of the Company’s other product lines, affecting the overall cost of goods as a percentage of sales. The Company has also experienced increases in labor, plastics, corrugate and chemical costs for some of its other brands, as well as the effect of the increases in oil prices. It is possible that the Company will experience further increases if the cost of oil continues to rise. The Company’s cost of goods was also impacted by the scrapping of $192,334 of inventory, mainly due to packaging changes and the recall of the Plus White whitening gel, which was a direct expense to the cost of goods for fiscal 2012. In addition, sales incentives and coupons were $1,014,526 higher in the first half of fiscal 2012 as compared to the first half of fiscal 2011, which affects the gross margin.

Selling, general and administrative expenses decreased $820,708 to $10,979,076 for the six months ended May 31, 2012 as compared to $11,799,784 for the same period in fiscal 2011. Expenses were lower in part due to the Company recording an expense in the first half of fiscal 2011 in the amount of $600,000 to settle the Alleghany Pharmacal Corporation claim that was recorded in the second quarter of 2011 (see the 10K for fiscal 2011, Part I, Item 1(f)(i) for further information regarding the settlement).

Advertising expense was $4,076,422 for the six months ended May 31, 2012 as compared to $3,448,793 for the six months ended May 31, 2011, an increase of $627,629. Of this amount, $321,023 was due to higher co-operative advertising that is classified as a selling expense and $284,222 was due to higher media commercial costs. The Company’s advertising expense changes from quarter to quarter based on the timing of the Company’s promotions.

Income before the provision for income taxes was $656,199 for the six months ended May 31, 2012 as compared to $143,579 for the same period in 2011. The effective tax rate for the six months ended May 31, 2012 was 40.6% versus 33.3% for the six months ended May 31, 2011. The provision for income taxes of $266,565 for the first six months of fiscal 2012 included a current tax expense for federal taxes of $191,618, $60,540 for state income taxes and an expense of $14,407 for deferred tax. The federal and state income tax expense is based on an estimate of the tax rates that the Company will be paying for fiscal 2012. The deferred tax benefit is primarily due to changes in the Company’s deferred tax assets. The deferred tax assets are a result of timing differences between when expenses are deductible on the Company’s books and when they are deductible on the Company’s tax returns.

FINANCIAL POSITION AS OF MAY 31, 2012

The Company’s financial position as of May 31, 2012 consisted of current assets of $31,709,217 and current liabilities of $10,337,877, or a current ratio of 3.1 to 1. The Company’s cash and cash equivalents were $6,255,917 as of May 31, 2012, a decrease of $1,443,698 from November 30, 2011. Included in this decrease was net cash used in operating activities of $676,772, and net cash provided by investing activities of $223,798 offset by net cash used in financing activities of $990,724. Included in the net cash used in financing activities was $987,622 of dividends paid.

26

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

Accounts receivable increased to $8,701,502 as of May 31, 2012 from $7,743,601 as of November 30, 2011. The increase was due to higher gross sales volume in April and May 2012 of $12,362,820 as compared to the gross sales volume of $10,234,125 for October and November 2011.

The reserve for returns and allowances is based on the historical returns as a percentage of sales in the five preceding months, adjusting for returns that can be put back into inventory, and a specific reserve based on customer circumstances. This allowance increased to $2,369,449 as of May 31, 2012, from $2,014,303 as of November 30, 2011. Of this amount, allowances and reserves in the amount of $1,077,562, which are anticipated to be deducted from future invoices, are included in accrued liabilities. The balance of the reserve for returns and allowances that was reflected in net accounts receivable as of May 31, 2012 was $1,291,887, as compared to $944,642 as of November 30, 2011. Gross receivables were further reduced by $1,518,557, which were reclassified from accrued liabilities, as an estimate of the co-operative advertising that will be taken as a credit against payments. In addition, accrued liabilities include $3,051,677, which is an estimate of co-operative advertising expense relating to fiscal 2012 sales which are anticipated to be deducted from future invoices rather than against the current accounts receivable. The allowance for doubtful accounts decreased to $19,602 as of May 31, 2012 as compared to $53,191 as of November 30, 2011. The Company had no material overdue accounts receivable balances as of May 31, 2012.

Inventory increased to $11,382,430 as of May 31, 2012 from $9,460,408 as of November 30, 2011. The inventory increased in order to support the sales of Gel Perfect as well as the promotional sales to take place in the third quarter of fiscal 2012. In addition, inventory purchases of certain items were increased in order to take advantage of quantity cost savings. The inventory obsolescence reserve decreased to $522,560 as of May 31, 2012 from $892,226 as of November 30, 2011. The expense resulting from increases to the inventory obsolescence reserves are charged to the cost of sales.

Prepaid and refundable income taxes decreased to $485,537 as of May 31, 2012 from $718,828 as of November 30, 2011. The decrease was due to the estimate of income taxes due as of May 31, 2012.

The deferred income tax asset decreased to $1,501,119 as of May 31, 2012 from $1,738,949 as of November 30, 2011. The decrease was mainly due to the unrealized gain on investments as of May 31, 2012, as compared to the unrealized loss as of November 30, 2011 and the reclassification of $122,580 from short-term deferred to long-term deferred. The reclassification is based on an estimate of the amount of the charitable contributions deferred tax asset that will be realized in periods greater than twelve months from May 31, 2012. The deferred tax assets were offset by a deferred tax liability of $20,760 related to the Company’s unrealized gain of $52,030 on its investments as of May 31, 2012. The unrealized gains reported on the balance sheet were $31,270 which is net of the deferred tax expense. The deferred tax liability decreased to $57,270 at May 31, 2012 as compared to $182,339 as of November 30, 2011. The decrease was due to the reclassification of $122,580 from short-term deferred to long-term deferred, which reduced the long-term liability. The liability is due to the difference in depreciation between the Company’s books and income tax returns.

Accounts payable and accrued liabilities increased to $9,810,619 as of May 31, 2012 from $8,566,544 as of November 30, 2011. The increase was due to an increase in the normal course of business.

27

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

Shareholders’ equity decreased to $25,155,803 as of May 31, 2012 from $25,608,051 as of November 30, 2011. The decrease was due to the net income of $389,634 and unrealized gains, net of deferred income tax, on marketable securities of $145,740, offset by dividends declared of $987,622 during the six months ended May 31, 2012. Unrealized holding gains or losses are recorded as other comprehensive income.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Liquidity is defined as the ability to generate adequate amounts of cash to meet short-term and long-term business needs. We assess our liquidity in terms of our total cash flow and the amounts of cash, short-term and long-term marketable securities on hand. Significant factors that could affect our liquidity include the following:

• Cash flow generated or used by operating activities;

• Dividend payments;

• Capital expenditures;

• Acquisitions.

Our primary capital needs are seasonal working capital requirements and dividend payments. In addition, funds are kept on hand for any potential acquisitions, which the Company continues to explore. As of May 31, 2012, the Company had $2,760,750 of short term marketable securities and $2,513,950 of non-current securities. Please refer to Note No. 7 of the financial statements for further information regarding the Company’s investments. The Company’s long term liabilities, as of May 31, 2012, consist of a deferred tax liability of $57,270. The Company does not have any bank debt or a bank line of credit. Due to the amount of cash and marketable securities on-hand, the Company does not believe that it needs the availability of a bank line of credit at this time. The Company anticipates that it will have sufficient liquidity to finance anticipated working capital requirements for at least the next twelve months.

Critical Accounting Estimates

Our consolidated financial statements include the use of estimates, which management believes are reasonable. The process of preparing financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”) requires management to make estimates and assumptions regarding certain types of assets, liabilities, revenues, and expenses. Such estimates primarily relate to unsettled transactions and events as of the date of the financial statements. Accounting estimates and assumptions are those management considers to be most critical to the financial statements because they inherently involve significant judgment and uncertainties. All of these estimates and assumptions reflect management’s best judgment about current economic and market conditions and their effects on the information available as of the date of the consolidated financial statements. Accordingly, upon settlement, actual results may differ from estimated amounts. An accounting estimate is deemed to be critical if it is reasonably possible that it subsequent correction could have a material effect on future operating results or financial condition. The following are estimates that management has deemed to be critical:

28

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

1. Reserve for Returns — The allowances and reserves which are anticipated to be deducted from future invoices are included in accrued liabilities. The estimated reserve is based in part on historical returns as a percentage of gross sales. The current estimated return rate is 5.9% of gross sales. Management estimates that 14.3% of returns received are placed back into inventory, and the estimate for returns is adjusted to reflect the value of the returns placed into inventory. Any changes in this accrued liability are recorded as a debit or credit to the reserve for returns and allowances account.

2. Allowance for Doubtful Accounts — The allowance for doubtful accounts is an estimate of the loss that could be incurred if our customers do not make required payments. Trade receivables are periodically evaluated by management for collectability based on past credit history with customers and their current financial condition. Changes in the estimated collectability of trade receivables are recorded in the results of operations for the period in which the estimate is revised. Estimates are made based on specific disputes and additional reserves for bad debt based on the accounts receivable aging ranging from 0.35% for invoices currently due to 2.0% for invoices more than ninety-one days overdue. Trade receivables that are deemed uncollectible are offset against the allowance for uncollectible accounts. The Company generally does not require collateral for trade receivables.

3. Inventory Obsolescence Reserve – Management reviews the inventory records on a monthly basis. Management deems to be obsolete finished good items that are no longer being sold, and have no possibility of sale within the ensuing twelve months. Components and raw materials are deemed to be obsolete if management has no planned usage of those items within the ensuing twelve months. In addition, management conducts periodic testing of inventory to make sure that the value reflects the lower of cost or market. If the value is below market, a provision is made within the inventory obsolescence reserve. This reserve is adjusted monthly, with changes recorded as part of cost of sales in the results of operations.

29

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURE ABOUT MARKET RISK

The Company’s financial statements record the Company’s investments under the “mark to market” method (i.e., at date-of-statement market value). The investments are, categorically listed, in “Common Stock”, “Mutual Funds”, “Preferred Stock”, “Limited Partnership” and “Corporate Obligations.” $817,091 of the Company’s $5,274,700 portfolio of investments (approximate, as at May 31, 2012) is invested in the “Common Stock” and “Limited Partnership” categories, and approximately $2,823,822 in the Preferred Stock holdings category. The Company invests in various investment securities. Investment securities are exposed to various risks such as interest rates, market and credit risks. Due to the level of risk associated with certain investment securities, it is at least reasonably possible that changes in the values of investment securities will occur in the near term. The Company does not take positions or engage in transactions in risk-sensitive market instruments in any substantial degree, nor as defined by SEC rules and instructions, however, due to current securities market conditions, the Company cannot ascertain the risk of any future change in the market value of its’ investments.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

The Company has established disclosure controls and procedures designed to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed in the reports that the Company files or submits under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”) is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms and is accumulated and communicated to management, including the principal executive officer (our Chief Executive Officer) and principal financial officer (our Chief Financial Officer), to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Notwithstanding the foregoing, there can be no assurance that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures will detect or uncover all failures of persons within the Company to disclose material information otherwise required to be set forth in the Company’s periodic reports. There are inherent limitations to the effectiveness of any system of disclosure controls and procedures, including the possibility of human error and the circumvention or overriding of the controls and procedures. Accordingly, even effective disclosure controls and procedures can only provide reasonable, not absolute, assurance of achieving their control objectives.

An evaluation was performed under the supervision of the Company’s management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in the Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e)) as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based on that evaluation, the Company’s management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, concluded that, as of May 31, 2012, the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective at the reasonable assurance level to ensure that information we are required to disclose in reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms, and is accumulated and communicated to our management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

There have been no changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting during the quarterly period ended May 31, 2012 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control overall financial reporting.
