NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(UNAUDITED)
NOTE 1 - BASIS OF PRESENTATION
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Operating results for the nine-month period ended August 31, 2007 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ended November 30, 2007. 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, 2006. The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements, in the opinion of management, include all adjustments necessary for a fair presentation.

NOTE 3 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)
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 of America requires the use of 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. Accordingly, upon settlement, actual results may differ from estimated amounts.
Other Comprehensive Income:
Total comprehensive income includes changes in equity that are excluded from the consolidated statement of operations and are recorded directly into a separate section of consolidated statements of comprehensive income. The Company’s accumulated other comprehensive income shown on the consolidated balance sheet consist of unrealized gains and losses on investment holdings net of any tax consequence.
Short-Term Investments and Marketable Securities:
Short-term investments and marketable securities consist of 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, and on the Statement of Comprehensive Income.
Statements of Cash Flows Disclosure:
For purposes of the statement of cash flows, the Company considers all highly liquid instruments purchased with an original maturity of less than three months to be cash equivalents.
During the nine months ended August 31, 2006, the Company purchased and retired an aggregate of 225,000 shares of common stock from three officer/directors, David Edell – 100,000, Ira Berman – 100,000 and Drew Edell – 25,000. The purchase price was $10.50 discounted from $10.82, the closing price at the close of business on the transaction date. In addition, three officer/directors exercised in the aggregate 70,500 options, David Edell – 22,500, Ira Berman – 28,000 and Dunnan Edell – 20,000.
For the nine months ended August 31, 2007, dividends declared were $1,474,141 and dividends paid were in the amount of $1,471,300, of which $490,970 pertains to fiscal year ended November 30, 2006. In addition, an officer, Dunnan Edell, exercised 55,000 options.

NOTE 3 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)
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 allowances for coop advertising and reserves for returns which are anticipated to be taken as credits against the balances as of August 31, 2007. 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 collectibility based on past credit history with customers and their current financial condition. Changes in the estimate collectibility 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.
Inventories:
Inventories are stated at the lower of cost (first-in, first-out) or market.
Product returns that are resaleable 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 on the straight-line method over the following estimated useful lives or lease terms of the assets:
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 1-9 years)

NOTE 3 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)
Intangible Assets:
Intangible assets are stated at cost. Patents are amortized on the straight-line method over a period of 17 years. Such intangible assets are reviewed for potential impairment whenever events or circumstances indicate that carrying amounts may not be recoverable.
Financial Instruments:
The carrying value of assets and liabilities considered financial instruments approximate their respective fair value.
Income Taxes:
Income tax expense includes federal and state taxes currently payable and deferred taxes arising from temporary differences between income for financial reporting and income tax purposes.
Tax Credits:
Tax credits, when present, are accounted for using the flow-through method as a reduction of income taxes in the years utilized.
Earnings Per Common Share:
Basic earnings per share are calculated using the average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share is computed on the basis of the average number of common shares outstanding plus the effect of outstanding stock options using the “treasury stock method”. Common stock equivalents consist of stock options.
Revenue Recognition:
The Company recognizes sales upon shipment of merchandise. Net sales comprise gross revenues less expected returns, trade discounts, customer allowances and various sales incentives. Although no legal right of return exists between the customer and the Company, it is an industry-wide practice to accept returns from customers. The Company, therefore, records a reserve for returns equal to its gross profit on its historical percentage of returns. Those returns which are anticipated to be taken as credits against the balances as of August 31, 2007 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:
The Company has accounted for certain sales incentives offered to customers by charging them directly to sales as opposed to “advertising and promotional” expense. Had EITF 00-14 not been adopted, net sales for the three months ended August 31, 2007 and 2006 would have been $15,364,335 and $16,857,538 respectively. Net sales for the nine months ended August 31, 2007 and 2006 would have been $49,678,830 and $52,390,246, respectively. In the fourth quarter of 2006, the Company reclassified certain promotional expenses from sales expense to a charge against sales for fiscal 2006. Those same expenses were reclassified for the three and nine month period ended August 31, 2007 and 2006. None of these changes affect net income reported for the interim periods ended August 31, 2007 and 2006.
Advertising Costs:
The Company’s policy for fiscal financial reporting is to charge advertising cost to operations as incurred.
Shipping and Handling Costs:
The Company’s policy for fiscal financial reporting is to charge shipping costs as part of selling, general and administrative expense as incurred. Freight costs included were $761,667 and $663,350 for the three months ended August 31, 2007 and 2006 respectively. Freight costs included were $2,182,829 and $1,948,546 for the nine months ended August 31, 2007 and 2006, respectively.
Stock Options:
In December 2004, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 123R, “Accounting for Share-Based Compensation” which is a revision of SFAS No. 123. Effective for annual or interim periods beginning after December 15, 2005, SFAS No. 123R requires stock grants to employees to be recognized in the income statement based on their fair values. The adoption of SFAS No. 123R did not have any impact on the Company’s financial position, results of operations or cash flow.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements:
In June 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued FASB Interpretation No. 48 (“FIN No. 48”) “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes – an Interpretation of FASB No. 109”. FIN No. No. 48 established a recognition threshold and measurement for income tax positions recognizes in an enterprise’s financial statements in accordance with FASB No. 109, “Accounting for Income Taxes”. FIN No. 48 also prescribes a two-step evaluation process for tax positions. The first step is recognition and the second is measurement. FIN No. 48 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2006. Accordingly, the Company plans to adopt FIN No. 48 on December 1, 2007. The Company has not determined the impact if any, on the adoption of FIN No. 48.
In September 2006, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 157, “Fair Value Measurements” (“SFAS No. 157”). SFAS No. 157 defines fair value, established a framework for measuring fair value in generally accepted accounting principles and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. SFAS No. 157 applies under other accounting pronouncements that require or permit fair value measurements, the FASB previously concluded in those accounting pronouncements that fair value is the relevant measurement attribute. SFAS No. 157 is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007, and interim periods in those fiscal years. The Company has not determined the impact, if any, of the adoption of SFAS No. 157.
In September 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 158, Employers’ Accounting for Defined Benefit Pension and Other Postretirement Plans, an amendment of SFAS Statements Nos. 87, 88,106 and 132R. SFAS No. 158, requires an employer to recognize the over-funded or under-funded status of a defined benefit postretirement plan as an asset or liability in its statement of financial position , measure a plan’s assets and obligations as of the end of the employer’s fiscal year-end and recognize changes in the funded status in the year in which the changes occur through comprehensive income. SFAS No. 158 is effective as of the end of the fiscal year ending after December 15, 2007. Since the Company does not have a defined benefit plan, the adoption will not have an impact on the Company’s financial statements.
In September 2006, the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) issued Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 108 (“SAB 108”) which provides interpretive guidance on how the effects of the carryover or reversal of prior year misstatements should be considered in quantifying a current year misstatement. SAB 108 is effective for the first fiscal year ending after November 15, 2006 which will be the fiscal year ending November 30, 2006. The adoption of this statement had no material impact on the Company’s financial position or results of operations.
In February 2007, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 159 (“SFAS No. 159”). SFAS No 159, which amends SFAS No. 115 allows certain financial assets and liabilities to be recognized, at the Company’s election, at fair market value, with any gains or losses for the period recorded in the statement of income. SFAS No. 159 included available-for-sales securities in the assets eligible for this treatment. Currently, the Company records the gains or losses for the period in the statement of comprehensive income and in the equity section of the balance sheet. SFAS No. 159 is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007, and interim periods in those fiscal years. The Company has not determined the impact, if any, of the adoption of SFAS No. 159.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF RESULTS
OF OPERATIONS AND FINANCIAL CONDITION (UNAUDITED)
Except for historical information contained herein, this “Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” contains forward-looking statements. These statements involve known and unknown risks and uncertainties that may cause actual results or outcomes to be materially different from any future results, performances or achievements expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements, and statements which explicitly describe such issues. Investors are urged to consider any statement labeled with the terms “believes,” “expects,” “intends’” or “anticipates” to be uncertain and forward-looking.
For the three month period ended August 31, 2007, the Company had revenues of $14,266,083 and net income of $2,069,604 after provision for taxes of $1,409,470. For the same quarter in 2006, revenues were $15,996,688 and net income was $1,927,476 after a provision for taxes of $1,003,756. Earnings per share were $0.29 (diluted) for the three-month period ended August 31, 2007 as compared to earnings of $0.27 (diluted) for the same period in 2006. Income before taxes for the three month period ended August 31, 2007 was $3,479,074 versus $2,931,232 for the same quarter in 2006. In accordance with EITF 00-14, 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 third quarter of 2007 were reduced by $1,424,966 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 $1,069,366 and trade promotion was credited by that amount. These accounting adjustments under EIFT 00-14 do not affect net income. Sales incentives costs were $355,600 higher for the third quarter of this year as compared to the same period last year due to the increased promotion of the Company’s brands.
The Company’s net sales decreased from $15,788,172 for the three-month period ended August 31, 2006 to $13,939,369 for the three-month period ended August 31, 2007. The decrease in net sales is attributable to discontinued products which are in the process of being replaced by new products. Sales returns and allowances were 16.7% of gross sales for the three-month period ended August 31, 2007 versus 12.3% for the same period last year. Sales returns and allowances were higher in part due to the return of products that were phased out and replaced by new items in the second quarter of 2007 and continuing into the third quarter, as well as the increase in sales incentives. Gross profit margins decreased to 64.6% from 68.4% for the three months ended August 31, 2007 and 2006 respectively. This was due to a combination of the effects of product mix and the increase in sales incentives and returns versus the same period last year.
The Company’s gross sales net of returns by category for the three-month period ended August 31, 2007 were: Skin Care $5,263,409, 33.9%; Dietary Supplement $4,680,260, 30.1%; Oral Care $3,528,118, 22.7%; Nail Care $1,499,582, 9.6%; Fragrance $285,806, 1.8%; and Miscellaneous $282,868, 1.9%; for a total of $15,540,043. The Company makes every effort to control the cost of manufacturing and has had no substantial cost increases. Returns and reserves accounted for $1,247,048 that was expensed against earnings for this quarter as opposed to $1,934,708 that was expensed during the third quarter of 2006.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF RESULTS
OF OPERATIONS AND FINANCIAL CONDITION (UNAUDITED)
(CONTINUED)
Advertising media expenditures were $1,864,438 lower in the third quarter of 2007 versus the same period in 2006. The selling, general and administrative expenses for the third quarter of 2007 decreased $458,868 to $5,529,710 from $5,988,578 in the third quarter 2006.
For the nine month period ended August 31, 2007, the Company had revenues of $46,551,224 and net income of $3,835,276 after provision for taxes of $2,784,809. For the same period in 2006, revenues were $49,502,972 and net income was $4,703,362 after a provision for taxes of $2,775,564. The tax provision for the first nine months of 2006 as a percentage of pre-tax income was lower than the same period in 2007 due to an over accrual of the prior year’s taxes and additional deductions for charitable contributions. Earnings per share were $0.54 (diluted) for the nine month period ended August 31, 2007 as compared to earnings of $0.66 (diluted) for the same period in 2006. Earnings were impacted during the first nine months by transaction expenses related to the proposed acquisition of the Company by Dubilier as disclosed in Note 13. Transaction expenses incurred during the nine month period ended August 31, 2007 were $717,850. Income before taxes for the nine month period ended August 31, 2007 was $6,620,085. Income before taxes on a pro-forma basis eliminating transaction expenses would have been $7,337,935 versus $7,478,926 for the nine month period ended August 31, 2006. In accordance with EITF 00-14, 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 nine months ended August 31, 2007 were reduced by $3,932,576 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 $3,480,973 and trade promotion was credited by that amount. These accounting adjustments under EIFT 00-14 do not affect net income. Sales incentives costs were $451,603 higher for the nine months ended August 31, 2007 as compared to the same period last year due to the increased promotion of the Company’s brands.
The Company’s net sales decreased from $48,909,273 for the nine month period ended August 31, 2006 to $45,746,254 for the nine month period ended August 31, 2007. Gross sales were $55,449,282 for the first nine months of 2007 versus $56,861,363 for the same period in 2006. Gross sales were lower than anticipated due to Pound – X, a dietary supplement launched in the fourth quarter of 2006 not meeting the Company’s expectations. The decrease in net sales is attributable to higher sales incentives, and higher sales returns. Sales returns and allowances were 16.4% of gross sales for the nine month period ended August 31, 2007 versus 10.5% for the same period last year. Sales returns and allowances were higher in part due to the return of products that were phased out and replaced by new items beginning in the second quarter and continuing into the third quarter of 2007. Gross profit margins decreased slightly to 63.5% from 65.2% for the nine months ended August 31, 2007 and 2006 respectively. This was due to a combination of the effects of product mix and the increase in sales incentives and returns versus the same period last year.
The Company’s gross sales net of returns and by category were: Skin Care $15,422,469, 30.8%; Dietary Supplement $15,176,198, 30.3%; Oral Care $12,833,647, 25.6%; Nail Care $5,307,814, 10.6%; Fragrance $1,055,425, 2.1%; Hair Care $275,616, 0.6%; and Miscellaneous $(16,047), -0.0.0%; for a total of $50,055,122. The Company makes every effort to control the cost of manufacturing and has had no substantial cost increases. Returns and reserves accounted for $4,794,092 that was expensed against earnings for the first nine months of 2007, of which $468,667 was for Pound – X, versus $5,886,144 for the same period in 2006.

OF OPERATIONS AND FINANCIAL CONDITION (UNAUDITED)
(CONTINUED)
Advertising media expenditures were $1,671,820 lower in the first nine months of 2007 versus the same period in 2006. They represented 12.2% of net sales for the nine months ended August 31, 2007 vs. 14.8% for the same period in 2006. The selling, general and administrative expenses for the first nine months of 2007 decreased $1,072,563 to $15,457,921 from $16,530,484 in the first nine months of 2006.

Shareholders’ equity increased from $27,384,791 as of November 30, 2006 to $29,705,012 as of August 31, 2007.

The Company’s long term investments as of August 31, 2007 were $3,243,113. Assuming these long-term investments could be sold and turned into liquid assets at any time, it would result in a current ratio of 4.5 to 1.

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”, “Other Equity”, “Preferred Stock”, “Government Obligations” and “Corporate Obligations.” $218,984 of the Company’s $15,757,902 portfolio of investments (approximate, as at August 31, 2007) is invested in the “Common Stock” and “Other Equity” categories, and approximately $766,560 are Preferred Stock holdings. 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; therefore, the Company does not believe that its investment-market risk is material.
ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
With the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, management has carried out an evaluation of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934). Based on that evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of August 31, 2007.
There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) subsequent to the date the controls were evaluated that materially affect, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

(In consequence, no proposal to alter or change the right of Class A Common Stock shareholders to elect a majority of directors could be effectively voted unless a separate majority of Class A Common Stock shares were voted therefor.)
