BUSINESS Business - History DHB Capital Group, Inc. (the "Company") was originally incorporated as a New York corporation on October 22, 1992, by Mr. David H. Brooks, the Company's Co-Chairman. Effective April 17, 1995 (the "Reincorporation Date"), pursuant to the authorization of the security holders of the Company, the Company was reincorporated (the "Reincorporation") in Delaware. Under the terms of the Reincorporation, the Delaware Corporation is the successor in interest to all the rights, interests, assets and liabilities of the New York Corporation. Holders of certificates, which, prior to the Reincorporation Date, evidenced securities of the New York corporation, automatically became holders of a like number of securities of the Delaware corporation. DHB Capital Group Inc. is a holding company, which has three divisions, DHB Armor Group, DHB Sports Group, and DHB Electronics Group. DHB Armor Group consists of Protective Apparel Corporation of America ("PACA"), Point Blank Body Armor Inc. ("Point Blank"), Point Blank International S.A. ("PB Int'l"), and Lanxide Armor Products Inc. ("LAP"). DHB Sports Group consists of NDL Products Inc. ("NDL") and Orthopedic Products Inc. ("OPI"). On March 10, 2000 the Company sold the DHB Electronics Group, which consisted of Lanxide Electronic Components Inc. ("LEC") and DHB KK. DHB Armor Group develops, manufactures, and distributes bullet and projectile resistant garments, bullet resistant and fragmentation vests, bomb projectile blankets, and related ballistic accessories. DHB Sports Group manufactures and distributes protective athletic apparel and equipment, such as elbow, breast, hip, groin, knee, shin and ankle supports, and braces, a line of magnetic therapy products, as well as, orthopedic products. OPI is engaged in the manufacture and sale of medical and orthopedic products directly to the medical industry, including hospitals, sports medicine centers and medical practices. DHB Electronics Group manufactures and markets metal matrix composite materials (e.g. silicon carbide/aluminum composites), which function as packaging and structural thermal management components for the electronics industries. Recent Developments Sale of DHB Electronics Group. On March 10, 2000, DHB Capital Group Inc. (the "Company") sold its subsidiaries Lanxide Electronic Components Inc. and DHB KK to DMC2 Electronic Components Corporation (an unrelated third party). The purchase price was $4,375,000 less the outstanding loan balance of Lanxide Electronics' Delaware Economic Loan of $141,217. The proceeds of this sale retired all of the outstanding bank debt of the Company. The sales price was determined through arms length negotiations, at a price the Company believes was fair. The sale of the Lanxide subsidiaries reflects the Company's strategic decision to refocus on its core businesses, the design, development and production of technologically advanced soft body armor for the U.S. Military and Law Enforcement communities. NASDAQ Small Cap Listing. On September 4, 1998, the Company's stock became listed on the NASDAQ Small Cap MarketTM listing. The listing was granted pursuant to satisfying certain conditions the NASDAQ Listing Qualifications Panel required. The Nasdaq Listing Qualifications Panel determined that the Company did not meet those conditions and delisted the Company's securities from the NASDAQ Small Cap Market effective with the close of business on December 20, 1999. 2 Exclusive license and trademark agreement with Magnesystems. On January 16, 1998, the Company signed an exclusive (except for certain rights in the field of products for horses) licensing agreement, to make, use and sell magnetic products covered by certain US and Canadian patents, along with the technical know how related to the magnetic products in the possession of Magnesystems. Buyback of Common Stock. On February 4, 1998, the board of Directors of the Company announced its authorization for the Company to purchase up to one million additional shares of its common stock on the open market, from time to time, at its discretion. The Board of Directors had previously authorized the repurchase of one million shares of its common stock in October 1996. To date, the Company has repurchased and retired 1,360,004 shares at a cost of $6,514,308. The Company has no specific plans, arrangements, understandings or commitments with respect to any future acquisition, and it is uncertain as to when or if any acquisition will be made. The Company is not currently involved in any substantive negotiations for purchasing any business or group of assets. 3 BUSINESS DHB Armor Group ("The Armor Group") Products. Point Blank, PACA, and PB Int'l comprise the Armor Group and they manufacture two basic types of body armor: concealable armor, which is designed to be worn beneath the user's clothing, and tactical armor, which is worn externally and is designed to protect against more serious ballistic threats. Both the concealable and tactical vests are manufactured using multiple layers and/or a combination of KevlarTM, Gold FlexTM, SpectrashieldTM, SpectraFlexTM, Zylon(TM), and other ballistic fabrics, covered and fully enclosed in an outer carrier. Although some products of Point Blank and PACA are competitive with each other, brand recognition, brand loyalty and distribution channels have and are expected to continue to minimize the extent to which products of the two companies may impact each other's sales. Concealable vests are contoured to closely fit the user's body shape. The Armor Group also sells a line of vests designed specifically for the body shapes of women users. Male vests are manufactured in standard sizes and may also be custom-made. Vests are fastened using VelcroTM type elastic strapping. Concealable vests may be supplemented for additional protection and supplied with an additional armor plate, which consists of either metal or certain composite materials to withstand greater threat levels than the vest is otherwise designed to protect against. During 1999, the Armor Group introduced more than 12 new NIJ (National Institute of Justice) certified vests. Among the more notable was the updating of the original Hi-Lite line, which now provides law enforcement customers with exceptional protection (under one pound per square foot). This was a remarkable improvement of an already excellent design and will continue to be an Armor Group asset in the future. In addition, the introduction of the Fusion line provided federal law enforcement officers with the highest level of ballistic protection in all NIJ threat levels available in the body armor industry today. The Armor Group also introduced the New Beast technology decreasing the weight by 45%, the thickness by 50%, and increasing the V50 and multiple hit capabilities. In addition, the Armor Group entered into an agreement with Gall's, a premier Law Enforcement Catalog. This agreement promotes the production of low cost, high performance, private label body armor as an exclusive product manufactured by the Armor Group for Gall's . The Armor Group also launched the KGS (Kevlar, Goldflex, Spectraflex) Ballistic series of vests in late 1998 and it hit full stride in 1999. This series features a soft, comfortable Level IIIA vest at .93 lbs. psf, making it one of the highest performing, lightest weight, and advanced hybrid designs on the market today. DHB Armor's Corrections Division also introduced the CounterPoint Fusion SLA, SLB, and SLC, a new series of stab / slash resistant panels that are used 4 independently or in conjunction with ballistic panels to provide previously unavailable soft armor protection. In addition, TAC Pants were developed to provide the corrections professional with the ultimate in lower torso stab / slash protection. DHB Armor Group's full line of correctional vests for anti-stab protection is derived from extensive research and the realization that corrections officers have specific needs unique to law enforcement. The Armor Group's correctional department provides complete solutions for unique requirements by combining the Hit-ManTM Training Suit with the Thrust-GuardTM Anti Stab technology to be utilized as a cell extraction suit. The Armor Group was awarded a $150 million "Interceptor" contract from the U.S. Army Soldier Systems and the Department of Defense. The Interceptor System increases the level of fragmentation and ballistic protection while dramatically reducing the overall weight of the vest. Designed as a continually up-gradable modular, soft body armor system, the Outer Tactical Vest consists of a base vest, collar assembly, throat protector and groin protector. The Interceptor Program, the most prestigious body armor contract ever awarded by the U.S. Military, moved forward during 1999. The Armor Group is currently in full production of the Interceptor Body Armor. In addition, although Interceptor has already been accepted by the Marine Corps, with the cooperation of manufacturers such as DuPont, the Armor Group is able to continue with unlimited, non-stop research and development to further optimize the Interceptor project, increasing performance, reducing weight, and maximizing protection. In 1999 the Armor Group was the first company to address two unique needs in the marketplace at the same time; how to keep an officer cool while wearing armor and making the ballistic panel more comfortable by giving the wearer increased features and adjustments to the garment. At the International Association of Chiefs of Police Conference in October 1999, the Armor Group successfully introduced the Vector(TM) garment system and Armor Ice(TM). The combination of these two products provides the wearer with substantially increased comfort. The Armor Group has long recognized that the single most important factor in officers not wearing body armor is excessive body heat buildup under the armor. Working in conjunction with Frisby Technology, the Armor Group developed a system to keep an officer cool while wearing armor. In mid-1999, the Armor Group negotiated the exclusive worldwide distribution rights to Frisby Technology's Comfortemp(TM) for all body armor applications and is marketing it under the brand name Armor Ice(TM). Armor Ice(TM) is the first active cooling system proven to work under armor utilizing a patented open-cell foam technology that incorporates microencapsulated phase change materials into the structure of the foam. PACA's wholesale prices for concealable vests range from approximately $150 to approximately $375. Point Blank's wholesale prices for its concealable vests range from approximately $215 to $540, and PB Int'l's prices range from $300 to $500. The Armor Group expects to continue these price levels. 5 Tactical vests are designed to give all-around protection and more coverage around the neck, shoulders and kidneys than concealable vests. These vests contain pockets to incorporate small panels constructed from, for example, hard composite materials and high-alumina ceramic tiles, all of which provide additional protection against high power rifle fire. Tactical vests come in a variety of styles, including tactical assault vests, high-coverage armor, and flak jackets, each of which is manufactured to protect against varying degrees of ballistic threats. PACA's wholesale prices of these products range from approximately $370 to approximately $1,200. Point Blank's wholesale prices for its tactical garments range from approximately $500 to $1,350, and PB Int'l's prices range from $700-$1,400. The Armor Group expects to continue these price levels. The Armor Group's other body-armor products include a tactical police jacket, military field jacket, executive vests, NATO-style vests, K-9 vests fragmentation vests and attack vests. Blast and fragmentation armor is designed to specifications in U.S. government contracts to offer full torso protection against materials and velocities associated with the fragmentation of explosive devices such as grenades and artillery shells. In general, concealable vests sold to law enforcement agencies and distributors are designed to resist bullets from handguns. Blast and Fragmentation gear utilizes a variety of designs and materials and patterns slightly different from bullet-resistant vests. The Armor Group also manufactures a variety of accessories for use with its body armor products. Potential Product Liability. The products manufactured or distributed by the Armor Group, e.g., bullet-resistant vests, are used in situations which could result in serious personal injuries or death, as a potential result of the failure of such products, or otherwise. The Armor Group maintains product liability insurance for PACA and Point Blank in the amount of $20,000,000 each per occurrence, and $20,000,000 in the aggregate less a deductible of $5,000 for each company. PB Int'l maintains product liability insurance in the amount of $2,000,000 for each occurrence. There is no assurance that these amounts would be sufficient to cover the payment of any potential claim. In addition, there is no assurance that this or any other insurance coverage will continue to be available or, if available, that PACA, Point Blank and PB Int'l would be able to obtain such insurance at a reasonable cost. Any substantial uninsured loss would have to be paid out of the Armor Group's assets, as applicable, and may have a material adverse effect on the Company's financial condition and results of operations on a consolidated basis. In addition, the inability to obtain product liability coverage would prohibit PACA, Point Blank, or PB Int'l as applicable, from bidding for orders from certain governmental customers, as many governmental agencies require such coverage, and any such inability to bid would have a material adverse effect on the Company's financial condition and results of operations on a consolidated basis. Raw Materials and Manufacturing. The Armor Group manufactures substantially all of their respective bullet-, blast-, fragmentation- and projectile-resistant garments and other ballistic-protection devices. The primary raw material used by the Armor Group in 55% of its manufacturing of ballistic-resistant garments is KevlarTM, a 6 patented product of E.I. Du Pont de Nemours & Co. SpectrashieldTM, GoldFlexTM, and SpectraFibreTM, which are patented products of Honeywell (formerly Allied Signal), are used in approximately 45% of all vests. Utilizing Allied Signal's patented, non-woven Shield technology, GoldFlexTM is softer and thinner than traditional ballistic materials while offering the maximum in multi-hit and angled shot protective capabilities. In 1999, Point Blank became one of only two companies to pioneer the development of ZylonTM based armor. This new relationship with Toyobo, utilizing ZylonTM, facilitates the introduction of lighter, more flexible, higher performance body armor. The Armor Group purchases cloth woven from these materials from three independent weaving companies. The woven fabric is placed on tables, layered over patterns for a particular component of a garment (for example, the front or back of a vest), cut using computerized cutting machines and electric knives, and then are stitched together. The Armor Group utilizes several hundred patterns based upon size, shape and style (depending upon whether the garment is a bullet-, blast- or fragmentation-resistant garment). KevlarTM, GoldFlexTM, SpectrashieldTM, SpectraFibreTM, TwaronTM, and ZylonTM differ in their pliability, strength and cost, such that the materials are combined to suit a particular application. In the opinion of management, the Armor Group enjoys a good relationship with its suppliers of KevlarTM, SpectrashieldTM, SpectraFibreTM, and Zylon(TM). If, however, Du Pont, the manufacturer of Kevlar fibers, or its European licensee were to cease, for any reason, to manufacture and distribute the bullet-resistant fabrics, the Armor Group would be required to utilize other fabrics, and the specifications of some of the Armor Group's products would have to be modified. Until the Armor Group selected an alternative fabric and appropriate ballistic tests were performed, its operations would be severely curtailed and the Armor Group's financial condition and results of operations would be adversely affected. The Armor Group purchases other raw materials used in the manufacture of their products from a variety of sources and believes additional sources of supply for these materials are readily available. Research and Development DHB Armor Group's research and development team has combined 50 years of notable ballistic research and development experience, previously retained in various positions of responsibility by H.P. White Laboratories, for a total of 23 years experience in an NIJ certification environment. Allen Price who heads an eight-man department that is responsible for certification and new product development directs the research and development department. Each location/facility for DHB Armor Group has on-site ballistic laboratory test facilities, where percentages of certification potentials are improved, and in certain cases individual lots can be tested for quality control purposes. As soon as materials are received at these facilities their ballistic integrity is assured which provides a continuous flow to the manufacturing and production process. Customers. The Armor Group's products are sold domestically to United States law enforcement agencies and the military and internationally to governments and distributors. Sales to domestic law enforcement agencies, security and intelligence agencies, police departments, federal and state correctional facilities, highway patrols and 7 sheriffs' departments accounted for 55% and 66%, respectively, of the Armor Group's revenues in each of the years ended December 31, 1999 and 1998. One customer, the New York City Police Department, accounted for approximately 6%, 8% and 5 % of PACA's sales for the years ended December 31, 1999, 1998 and 1997, respectively. The California Highway Patrol accounted for 14.6% of PACA's revenue for the year ended December 31, 1999. New York City Police Department accounted for approximately 10% and 14% of Point Blank's sales for the year ended December 31, 1999 and 1998 respectively. Also, one customer, DFAS Columbus, accounted for 33 % of Point Blank's sales for the year ended December 31, 1999. Besides domestic customers, Point Blank also has international customers that accounted for 5 %, 6 %, and 17 % of Point Blank's sales for the years ended December 31, 1999, 1998 and 1997 respectively. The loss of any one customer would not be expected to have a significant impact on the Armor Group's continuing financial results, due to the Armor Group's constant submission of bids for new contracts. Sales to the United States armed forces directly or as a subcontractor accounted for 19 %, 5 % and 8 % of revenues for the years ended December 31, 1999, 1998 and 1997, respectively. Substantially all sales by the Armor Group to the armed services and other federal agencies are made pursuant to standard purchasing contracts between PACA or Point Blank and the General Services Administration of the Federal Government, commonly referred to as a "GSA Schedule". The Armor Group also responds to invitations by military branches and government agencies to bid for particular orders. GSA Schedule contracts accounted for approximately 19%, 25% and 28 %, respectively, of the Armor Group's sales for the year ended December 31, 1999, 1998 and 1997. PACA and Point Blank, as GSA Schedule Contract vendors, are obligated to make all sales pursuant to such contracts at its lowest unit price. Their current GSA Contracts expires July 31, 2001. During the years ended December 31, 1999, 1998 and 1997, commercial sales (i.e., sales to non-governmental entities) were 26 %, 44 % and 49 % of the Armor Group's revenues. Marketing and Distribution. The Armor Group employs fifteen customer support representatives, five regional sales managers and in addition has twenty independent sales representatives who are paid solely on a commission basis. These personnel and distributors are responsible for marketing the Armor Group's products to law enforcement agencies in the United States. These individuals and entities often call upon personnel within these agencies who are responsible for making purchasing decisions in order to provide information concerning the Armor Group's products. Sales are made primarily through independent local distributors. However, in areas in which there are no suitable distributors, the Armor Group will fill orders directly. Government and Industry Regulations and Standards. Bullet and blast-resistant garments and accessories manufactured and sold by the Armor Group are not currently the subject of government regulations. However, law enforcement agencies and 8 the military publish invitations for bidding which specify certain standards of performance the bidders' products must meet. The National Institute of Justice, under the auspices of the United States Department of Justice, has issued a revised voluntary ballistic standard (NIJ0101.03) for bullet-resistant vests of several categories. The Armor Group regularly submits its vests to independent laboratories for ballistic testing under this voluntary ballistic standard and all of its products have, at the time of manufacture, met or exceeded such standards in their respective categories. In addition, the Armor Group's research and development team is actively involved in the development of NIJ standard 0101.04 and the new stab standard. The Armor Group regularly submits bullet-resistant garments and hard-armor inserts for rating by independent laboratories in accordance with a test commonly referred to as V50. This test involves exposing the tested item to blasts of fragments of increasing velocity until 50% of the fragments penetrate the materials. The tested item is then given a velocity rating which may be used by prospective purchasers in assessing the suitability of the Armor Group's products for a particular application. In addition, PACA, Point Blank and PB Int'l perform similar tests internally. Competition. The ballistic-resistant garment business is highly competitive and the number of United States manufacturers is estimated to be less than 20. Management is not aware of published reports concerning the market, and most companies are privately held. Nevertheless, the Armor Group believes, based upon its experience in the industry, that the largest manufacturer of ballistic-resistant garments in the United States is the Armor Group. In the future, the Company may face other and unknown competitors, some of whom may have substantially greater financial, marketing and other resources than the Company. The Armor Group believes that the principal elements of competition in the sale of ballistic-resistant garments are its innovative design, price and quality. In dealings with law enforcement agencies and the military, PACA, Point Blank, and PB Int'l bid for orders in response to invitations for bidding which set forth specifications for product performance. The Armor Group believes its products are competitive as to both price and quality with the products of its competitors having similar ballistic capabilities. The Armor Group's ability to remain competitive in pricing is due to its relatively lower labor and production costs. In addition, the Company believes that the Armor Group enjoys a favorable reputation in the industry with over 20 years of supplying federal, state and municipal governments and agencies. These factors, combined with the financial resources made available to the Armor Group by the Company, which are expected to continue will reduce interest expenses, improve production efficiencies and capacity, control purchasing costs and permit the Armor Group to viably compete. The Armor Group's Backlog. As of December 31, 1999, the Armor Group had a backlog of approximately $32.7 million, as compared to approximately $16 million as of December 31, 1998. Backlog at any one date is not a reliable indicator of future sales or sales trends. 9 In addition to the backlog, which represents orders believed to be firm, from time to time the Armor Group receives contract awards for municipal orders, which may be extended over a period of time. The actual dollar amount of products to be delivered pursuant to this and similar contracts cannot be accurately predicted and is generally excluded from reported backlog. Employees. As of February 29, 2000, there were two officers of the Armor Group, 19 persons employed in supervisory capacities, and 344 employed for manufacturing, shipping and warehousing, 3 technical/research development personnel and 24 were office personnel. All of the Armor Group's employees are employed full time. In the opinion of management, the Armor Group enjoys good relationships with its employees. DHB SPORTS GROUP. The Sports Group is a collection of brands that service specific segments of the sporting goods and health care markets with its sports medicine, protective gear, orthopedic soft goods and magnetic therapy products. The Sports Group also offers private label or house brand programs to major retailers and large wholesalers along with specific OEM programs to outside brands that service the same markets. Currently, the Sports Group manufactures and markets products under the brands NDL(TM), GRID(TM), MagneSystems(TM), FLEX-AID(TM), OPI(TM) and Doctor Bone Savers(TM). The Sports Group markets its product to a variety of distribution points with an emphasis on major retailers. Mass merchandisers, chain drug stores, food chains, independent sporting goods and pharmacy retailers, catalog, wholesale and e-commerce offer the various brands to the consumer. The Sports Group account list includes retail and wholesale establishments such as Wal-Mart, Target, Rite Aid, Meijer and Phar Mor. Two customers accounted for 51% of the Sports Group revenue. During 1999, the Sports Group successfully negotiated and began to implement and ship private label programs with three of the largest wholesalers to the retail trade: Amerisource, Cardinal Health and CDMA. These wholesalers have begun servicing their 10,000 store networks with their Family Pharmacy(TM), Leader(TM) and Quality Choice Brands(TM) of health support products. In addition, the Sports Group added valuable distribution during 1999 in the area of magnetic therapy by securing the Vitamin Shoppes, Vitamin World and Nature's Bounty's catalog as distribution partners. The Sports Group is a member of NACDS (National Association of Chain Drug Stores), PLMA (Private Label Manufacturers Association), and SGMA (Sporting Goods Manufacturers Association). The Sports Group employs 4 sales executives who are responsible for sales throughout the United States, Western Europe, Asia, the Middle East and Latin America. These sales 10 executives also manage more than 50 independent sales representatives who call on all classes of trade. The Sports Group has in house sales support and state of the art EDI order/invoicing capabilities. The Sports Group manufactures and distributes 80% of its entire product domestically at its Oakland Park, Florida facilities. The balance of products sold are sourced either domestically or imported from various contract manufacturers around the world. DHB Sports Group's Potential Products Liability. Some of the products manufactured or distributed by the Sports Group are used in situations where serious personal injuries could occur, whether on account of the failure of the Sports Group's products or otherwise. The Sports Group maintains product liability insurance in the amount of $20,000,000 per occurrence and $20,000,000 in the aggregate, including legal fees, subject to a $5,000 deductible. There can be no assurance that these amounts would be sufficient to cover payment of potential claims, and there can be no assurance that this or any other insurance coverage would continue to be available, or if available, that the Sports Group would be able to obtain it at reasonable cost. Any substantial uninsured loss would have to be paid out of the Sports Group's assets and could have a material adverse effect on the Company's financial condition and results of operations. Employees. As of February 29, 2000, there was one officer of the Sports Group, 8 persons employed in supervisory capacities, 67 employed for manufacturing, shipping and warehousing, 8 in sales and customer service and 10 were office personnel. All of the Sports Group's employees are employed full time. In the opinion of management, the Sports Group enjoys good relationships with its employees. DHB Electronics Group LEC is a manufacturer of unique and patented thermal management, packaging, and structural components for the electronics industry. LEC has over seven years of experience in the design, manufacture, and sale of products in the electronics industry. On May 29, 1998, the Company acquired a Japanese subsidiary, DHB KK, for a cash payment of $375,000. This Company markets LEC's products in Japan. On March 10, 2000 the Company sold the Electronics Group to an unrelated third party for approximately $4.375 million less the outstanding LEC loan balance of $141,217. Products - LEC's current products are based on silicon carbide particle reinforced aluminum composite technology applied to thermal management, packaging, and structural components for the electronics industry. The silicon carbide/aluminum composites provide a unique combination of desirable properties: High thermal conductivity, low coefficient of thermal expansion, lightweight, and high stiffness. These properties are useful in a wide variety of electronic applications: Power Module and Amplifier Heat Sinks or Base plates, microprocessor package lids and heat spreaders, printed wiring board cores, carriers, package bases, and fluid cooled heat sinks. Power Module and Amplifier Heat Sinks provide heat dissipation and thermal expansion characteristics, which minimize thermal stresses. 11 LEC's lightweight Printed Wiring Board Cores are used extensively for constraining surface mount assemblies, where they provide improved reliability, excellent thermal performance, and weight reductions of up to 70% of conventional cores. LEC's carriers provide high heat dissipation and weight savings, while matching the thermal expansion of many semiconductor devices and ceramic substrates. Major weight savings can be obtained by substituting LEC's package bases for those made of conventional materials for various package applications. For applications requiring higher levels of heat dissipation, LEC produces unique flow-through heat sinks with internal cooling passages for air or liquid cooling. LEC markets these products under the trade names PRIMECOOL(TM) and PRIMEFLO(TM) composite components. LEC's products are fabricated using patented technologies. Composites with high loading of silicon carbide are made using the PRIMEX(TM) pressure less metal infiltration technology ("infiltrated products"). Lower silicon carbide loadings are achieved using the PRIMEX CAST(TM) composite casting technology ("cast products"). Together these technologies provide a comprehensive range of SiC/A1 products to meet customer needs. LEC's original business strategy was initially to address the military markets to establish a base business from which to attack the commercial/industrial markets. This sequence offered a natural progression from low-to-moderate volume, high value products to high volume, low cost products, and compatible with the need to develop production experience with a new process technology. The strategy has been only partially successful: while LEC has achieved numerous product adoptions in military applications, dramatic changes in DOD procurement plans during the past several years have precluded the development of a profitable business based solely on this market segment. LEC's current strategy is to maintain and grow, where possible, its military business on a selective basis, while directing its primary attention toward the commercial/industrial markets. The commercial/industrial business has shown strong growth in the past two years and this trend is projected to continue. Competition and Customers. LEC has established itself as a market leader in SiC/A1 products. LEC estimates its current business share to be approximately 50% of all SiC/A1 electronic products sold. LEC's leadership position will be key in maintaining the level of growth necessary to pursue opportunities in areas currently dominated by lower cost incumbent materials, such as copper and aluminum, as well as competitively priced materials, such as copper/tungsten and molybdenum/copper. LEC's position will also be critical in protecting its market share from competitors attempting to "buy" new business as it develops. 12 LEC's Marketing and Distribution. LEC employs a sales executive (along with two customer service specialists) who are responsible for sales and marketing throughout the United States, Europe, and Japan. Additionally, LEC utilizes 17 independent sales representatives who are paid on a commission basis. LEC utilizes a website to market its products. Their address is http//www.LEC-Inc.com. In addition, LEC has obtained strong access to the Japanese market through LEC's affiliate, DHB KK, in Japan. DHB KK has established customer contacts with key accounts in Japan that taken together have the major share of the power electronics market; these include almost all of the major electronic and/or electronic components manufacturers in Japan. Product adoption has been achieved, and most of the key customers are pursuing additional qualification programs. Segment Information As described in detail above, the Company operates in three principal segments: Ballistic-resistant equipment, Electronic Components and Protective athletic/medical equipment. The Company disposed of the Electronics Group in March 2000, and closed its hard armor company, LAP in October 1999. These two divestures are accounted for as discontinued operations. Financial information on the Company's business segments was as follows: 13 Net Sales 1999 1998 1997 - --------- ---- ---- ---- Ballistic-resistant equipment $30,358,537 $28,695,127 $26,805,471 Electronic components 8,441,393 8,398,107 - Protective athletic & medical equipment 6,236,438 8,388,544 7,094,808 --------- --------- --------- 45,036,368 45,481,778 33,900,279 Less inter-segment sales (2,781,099) (3,647,353) (628,672) Less discontinued operations (3) (7,524,541) (8,761,007) ----------- ----------- Consolidated Net Sales $35,140,728 $33,073,418 $33,271,607 =========== =========== =========== Income from Operations Ballistic-resistant equipment $(9,629,504) $2,485,395 $2,017,281 Electronic components (1,835,137) (782,908) - Protective athletic & medical equipment (2,390,834) 1,207,743 498,062 Corporate and Other (1) (2,824,826) (1,508,027) (1,039,316) ----------- ----------- ----------- Sub-total (16,680,301) 1,402,203 1,476,027 Less discontinued operations (3) 6,809,082 1,451,216 - ----------- --------- ---------- Consolidated Operating Income $(9,871,219) $2,853,419 $ 1,476,027 ============== ============ ========== Identifiable Assets (2) Ballistic-resistant equipment $14,283,739 $23,743,604 $17,572,698 Electronic components 6,177,019 5,749,438 - Protective athletic & medical equipment 3,335,253 8,844,627 6,322,150 --------- --------- --------- 23,796,011 38,337,669 23,894,848 Corporate and Other 400,038 4,641,566 3,779,781 ------- --------- --------- Sub-total 24,196,049 42,979,235 27,674,629 Discontinued operations (3) (4,825,532) (5,568,122) - Assets held for sale 3,928,980 3,952,697 - ----------- ----------- ----------- Consolidated Net Assets $23,299,497 $41,363,810 $27,674,629 =========== =========== =========== Foreign sales accounted for 17%, 12% and 10%, respectively of the total revenues for the years ended December 31, 1999, 1998 and 1997.

Item 2. PROPERTIES Corporate Headquarters. On January 1, 2000 the Company relocated its corporate headquarters to a 3,750 square foot office located at 555 Westbury Avenue, Carle Place, NY 11514 pursuant to a three year lease with an annual rental of $44,250 and 5% increases each year. Previously the corporate headquarters were located in a one-story building bought January 17, 1996, on two-acre lot located at 11 Old Westbury Road, Old Westbury, New York; this building is currently for sale. PACA. PACA leases 23,400 square feet of office, manufacturing and warehouse space at 148 Cedar Place, Norris, Tennessee from Leonard Rosen, President of PACA, at a present annual rental of $43,200, plus real estate taxes of approximately $4,800 annually. The Company leases this space on a month-to-month basis. In the opinion of management, PACA's facilities are adequate for its current needs and for its needs in the foreseeable future. Management believes that the terms of the lease are at the current market price that would be obtained from an unrelated party. NDL/Point Blank/OPI Facility. NDL Products leases a 67,000 square foot office and manufacturing facility (the "Oakland Park Facility") located at 4031 N.E. 12th Terrace, Oakland Park, Florida 33334, from V.A.E. Enterprises ("V.A.E."), a partnership controlled by Mrs. Terry Brooks, wife of Mr. David H. Brooks, and beneficially owned by Mr. and Mrs. Brooks' minor children. V.A.E. purchased the Oakland Park facility as of January 1, 1995. Point Blank and OPI entered into a net-net lease for a portion of the space in the Oakland Park facility. Annual aggregate base rental is $480,000 and is scheduled to increase by 4% per year. NDL Products, Point Blank, and OPI, as lessees, are responsible for all real estate taxes and other operating and capital expenses. Management believes that the terms of the lease are at the current market price that would be obtained from an unrelated party. In April 1997, the Company entered a five-year lease for a 60,000 square foot warehouse adjacent to the Oakland Park, Florida facility with an annual rental of approximately $210,000. This warehouse is located at 1201 NE 38th Street Oakland Park, Florida. Point Blank International Facility. PB Int'l leases a 5,700 square foot office and warehouse facility located at Rue Leon Frederiq, 14, 4020 Liege, Belgium. This space is occupied pursuant to a three-year lease with options to renew for six years and annual rentals of approximately, $42,000. Lanxide Facility. LAP and LEC lease an 82,000 square foot office and warehouse facility located at 1300 Marrows Road, Newark, Delaware and a 3,500 square foot ballistic 15 testing range at Forge Dr., Newark, Delaware, which is adjacent to the manufacturing facility. The Marrow's road space is occupied pursuant to a lease, which provides for annual base rentals of $420,000 and expires in March 2001. In January 1999 the sublessor filed for bankruptcy protection and the Trustee has not yet decided on the assumption or rejection of the LAP or LEC leases. This premise was released in conjunction with the sale of the Electronics Group on March 10, 2000. Item 3. PENDING LITIGATION On or about January 20, 1999, DL Cromwell Investments, Inc. commenced an action against DHB Capital Group Inc. and David Brooks in the Supreme Court of New York, County of Nassau. The Plaintiff claims it was fraudulently induced to enter into a consulting agreement with the defendant and for breach of the consulting agreement and a supplemental agreement and for quantum merit for the fair and reasonable value of services rendered. In September 1999, the Company settled with DL Cromwell. The Company initiated a lawsuit against Bioflex Medical Magnetics for patent infringement, unfair competition under federal and state law and breach of contract. Bioflex Medical Magnetics commenced an action against NDL and DHB Capital in the US District Court for the Southern District of Florida. Bioflex claims patent and trademark infringement, as well as, breach of contract. NDL has filed a claim with its general liability insurance carrier, and they acknowledge that it is their duty to defend this action. In June 1999 the Company reached a settlement with Bioflex. Thomas "Hitman" Hearns filed a complaint against NDL Products in the US District court for the Eastern District of Michigan alleging unfair competition, and violation of Mr. Hearn's right of publicity and seeking cancellation of NDL's "Hitman" trademark. NDL has filed a claim with its general liability insurance carrier. Due to the preliminary status of this litigation, counsel to DHB is unable to predict the outcome of this litigation. In February 2000, the case was settled. Barry Finn, the former president of NDL Products Inc., obtained a judgment against NDL Products Inc. and DHB Capital Group Inc. on March 25, 1999 for breach of an employment contract. The Company settled this lawsuit in June 1999. The Company is involved in other minor litigation, none of which is considered by management to be material to its business or, if adversely determined, would have a material adverse effect on the Company's financial condition. Item 4. Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders. There was no meeting of Security Holders in 1999. There will a meeting for 1999 and 1998 by June 30,2000. 16 Part II Item 5.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS The following analysis of the Company's financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with the financial statements, including the notes thereto, contained elsewhere in this document. Except as otherwise noted herein, this discussion relates to the Company and its subsidiaries on a consolidated basis. General The Company is a holding company, which conducts business through its wholly owned subsidiaries organized in three divisions. The Armor Group, which develops, manufactures and distributes bullet and projectile resistant garments, out DHB Sports Group, which engages in the manufacture and distribution of protective athletic equipment and apparel and the manufacture of orthopedic products and is a distributor of general medical supplies and the Electronic Group, which engages in the manufacture and distribution of electronic components. The Company sold the Electronics Group on March 10, 2000. The Armor Group's products are sold both nationally and internationally. Sales are directed primarily to law enforcement agencies and military services. Sales to domestic law enforcement agencies, including government, security and intelligence agencies, police departments, federal and state correctional facilities, highway patrol and Sheriff's departments, comprise the largest portion of the Armor Group's business. Accordingly, any substantial reduction in governmental spending or change in emphasis in defense and law enforcement programs could have a material adverse effect on the Armor Group's business. The Company also owns a minority interest in several other companies, some privately held and some publicly held, including the telecommunications, health care, and electronics. The management of the Company is engaged in the review of potential acquisitions and in providing management assistance to the Company's operating subsidiaries. The Company commenced operations in November 1992 by acquiring the outstanding common stock of PACA, a manufacturer and distributor of bulletproof garments and accessories. From the acquisition of PACA through December 20, 1994, PACA was the Company's only source of revenue from operations. Thereafter, the Company purchased a business each year and thus to date, NDL, Point Blank, OPI, PB Int'l, LEC and DHB KK are also sources of revenue from operations. 20 The Company closed LAP in October 1999 and sold LEC and DHB KK in March 2000. Results of Operations Year Ended December 31, 1999, compared to year ended December 31, 1998. Consolidated net sales of the Company for the year ended December 31, 1999 increased from $33,073,418 to $35,140,728 as a result of increased sales volumes. The sales numbers do not include the revenue from discontinued operations of approximately $7.5 million for the year ended December 31, 1999 and $8.7 million for the year ended December 31, 1998. In October 1999, the Company announced its plan to divest its "Lanxide subsidiaries". This plan included the closure of the LAP plant and to enter into negotiations for the sale of the Electronics Group. The sale of the Electronics group was consummated on March 10, 2000 for a cash payment of approximately $4.2 million. The divestiture of the Lanxide subsidiaries reflects the Company's strategic decision to refocus and rededicate is efforts and resources on the design, development and production of technologically advanced soft body armor. All revenue and expenditures associated with LAP and the Electronics Group are presented as a loss from discontinued operations. The year ended December 31, 1998 has been restated to reflect the discontinued operations. The Company believes that by divesting the Company of these subsidiaries it will increase profitability and cash flow in 2000. Gross profit in 1999 was a $7,574,450 as compared to $12,631,755 for 1998. Impacting a lower gross profit in 1999 was the write-off of additional research and development costs. Previously, the Company's ballistic testing for a contract was a prepaid expense and expensed to the cost of goods sold over the life of the contract. This change resulted in approximately $200,000 additional expenditures in 1999. Also impacting the gross profit was the write-off of certain obsolete inventory. The Company's selling, general and administrative expenses ("S, G & A," expenses") for 1999 increased to $ 17,445,669 from $9,778,336 in 1998. The reason for the increase is S,G, & A expenses is by-fold. Professional fees were increased approximately $5 million in 1999. The increase in professional fees is associated with winning the interceptor contract award, the defense of the protest of the award, the professional fees associated with becoming Y2K compliant and ISO9000 certified, and the legal fees associated with the lawsuits against the company. Most of the professional fees are non-recurring in nature and the majority of the cases were settled in 1999. The Company had one year where their liability insurance deductible was $100,000, now it is $5,000 per year. A claim was made during the year under that insurance policy and the Company expensed $100,000 in legal fees in the defense of the claim. The insurance company will pay the balance of the claim. The second reason selling, general and administrative expenses is higher during 1999 is that advertising expenditures increased from approximately $640,000 in 1998 to approximately $1,062,000 in 1999. The Sports group successfully negotiated agreements with some large retail companies, which required a one-time advertising rebate. Included in expense for 1999 is approximately $400,000 in advertising incentives. The Sports Group also produced an infomercial for $250,000 in 1999. Also the construction of DHB and subsidiaries website cost the company approximately $70,000. Also included in 21 expense was promotional samples given to promote our various new lines of vests to our numerous distributors and salesman resulting in a $600,000 charge to expense during 1999. Other income (expense) also increased in 1999 to ($12,469,018) over (1,073,596)in 1998. The primary reason was the Company suffered a dollar was on October 15, 1999, the office and manufacturing facility located in Oakland Park, Florida suffered extensive damage, $7.7 million due to Hurricane Irene. Substantial damage was done to the building as well as inventory. The loss was primarily inventory and the corresponding overhead expenses on that inventory. The Company currently has a lawsuit with their insurance companies to recover some of the loss, but as of today no agreement has been reached. The Company expensed the entire loss in October 1999 and has not recorded a receivable for any amount, which may be due from the insurance companies. Interest expense increased due to an increase in borrowing of approximately $11,000,000 associated with the purchase of LAP and LEC. The Company also wrote off the goodwill associated with their investment in Belgium Company as well as the write down of their non-marketable securities, which resulted in a $688,000 expense. Year Ended December 31, 1998, compared to year ended December 31, 1997. Consolidated net sales of the Company for the year ended December 31, 1997 increased by $8,562,818 to $41,834,425. This increase was the result of the acquisitions made this year, as well as, increased growth in sales volume for Point Blank and NDL. Gross profit in 1998 increased $3,349,932 to $14,467,614. The Company's gross profit percentage increased from 33% in 1997 to 35% in 1998 due to increased sales volumes as well as a change in the product mix being sold that yield higher margins. The Company had a consolidated net income of approximately $130,000 for 1998 as compared to a consolidated net income of approximately $1,541,000 for 1997. The decrease in net income in 1998 was primarily due to the acquisition of Lanxide Armor Products and Lanxide Electronic Components. The Company has cut their operating cost significantly throughout 1998 and believes these companies will not impact net income as negatively in 1999. The Company's selling, general and administrative expenses ("S, G & A," expenses") for 1998 increased to $13,065,411 from $9,641,655 in 1997. As a percentage of net sales, the S,G, & A expenses were 31% in 1998 compared to 28% in 1997. This increase of approximately, $3,424,000 was due mainly to the acquisitions made during 1998. Interest expense, net of interest income for 1998 increased to $1,278,867 for 1998 from $339,754 in 1997 due to an increase in borrowing of approximately $11,000,000 associated with the purchase of LAP and LEC. Year Ended December 31, 1997, compared to year ended December 31, 1996. Consolidated net sales of the Company for the year ended December 31, 1997 increased by $9,892,909 to approximately $33,271,607. This increase was primarily due to the increased sales volume for Point Blank, PACA, and NDL. Gross profit in 1997 increased $6,766,725 to $11,117,682. The Company's gross profit percentage increased from 19% in 1996 to 33% in 1997. This increase was the result of improved production efficiencies, as well as, increased sales volume. The Company had a consolidated net income of approximately $1,541,000 for 1997 as compared to a consolidated net loss of approximately $4,866,000 for 1996. During the last quarter of 1996, the Company instituted major changes at their Florida facility, which houses Point Blank, NDL and OPI. New management was put in place in October 1996, including a new production manager. Pricing was reviewed and better controls where put into place to yield higher profit margins. The Company had net income for the year ended December 31, 1997 of $1,540,809 as compared to a net loss of $4,865,872 for the year ended December 31, 1996. This turn around was due to the successful implementation of the Company's strategic plan put in place in late 1996. 22 The Company's selling, general and administrative expenses ("S, G&A expenses") for 1997, increased to $9,641,655 from $8,668,950 in 1996. As a percentage of net sales, the S, G & A expenses were 28% in 1997 compared to 37% in 1996. This increase of approximately $1.5 million was due mainly to increased selling costs including sales commissions, show expenses and increase advertising and travel expenses associated with sales. In 1997, the Company continued aggressive measures to regain its market share by increasing its marketing efforts. This amounted to 8% of the S, G&A expenses for 1996 as compared 20 % of the S, G&A expenses for 1997. Interest expense, net of interest income, for 1997, increased to $339,754 from $327,347 in 1996 due to a decline of interest income on the Company's cash balances. Liquidity and Capital Resources. The Company's primary capital requirements over the next twelve months are to assist PACA, Point Blank, NDL, PB Int'l, LAP, LEC and DHB KK, in financing their working capital requirements. PACA, Point Blank, PB Int'l, LEC and NDL sell the majority of their products on 60 - 90 day terms, and OPI, LAP and DHB KK sells the majority of its products on 30-60 day terms, and working capital is needed to finance the receivables, manufacturing process and inventory. Working capital at December 31, 1999, 1998 and 1997 was $(912,766), $19,103,841 and $13,621,014, respectively. Without the Electronics Group which was subsequently sold in March 2000, the working capital as of December 31, 1999 would be $4,831,970. Cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities totaled $473,441, $1,048,445 and $2,586,690 at December 31, 1999, 1998 and 1997 respectively. The cash generated by the net income for the year ended December 31, 1997, was utilized to repurchase the Company's common stock in the open market, which amounted to approximately $2,145,000 for the year ended December 31, 1997. The Company has repurchased and retired an additional 700,995 shares of its common stock in the open market for approximately $2,770,002 in 1998. During 1999, the Company repurchased 75,150 shares in the open market for $315,320. At December 31, 1999 the Company had a loan of $5,000,000 from the Bank of New York which was due in April 1999, bearing a default interest of approximately 12% per year. Even thought the line had expired, the bank was working with the Company on a repayment schedule. The assets of the Company are held as collateral for this loan. The loan was repaid in March 2000, utilizing the proceeds from the sale of the Electronics Group. The Company's principal commitments at December 31, 1999 consisted of obligations under its operating leases for its facilities. The Company's capital expenditures for 1999, 1998, and 1997 were $707,374, $1,423,267, $801,150 respectively. The Company sold the Electronics Group in March 2000 for a cash payment of approximately $4,375,000 less an outstanding loan balance to LEC for $141,216. The Company purchased LAP and LEC in February 1998 for $4.8 million dollars, 23 DHB KK in May 1998 for $375,000 and PB Int'l in February 1997 by issuing stock in lieu of cash payment.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS Note 1 SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES Principles of consolidation The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of DHB Capital Group Inc. and its subsidiaries ("DHB"), all of which are wholly owned. DHB has three major divisions, DHB Armor Group, DHB Electronics Group, and DHB Sports Group. DHB Armor Group consists of Protective Apparel Corporation ("PACA"), Point Blank Body Armor Inc., Lanxide Armor Products Inc. ("LAP") and Point Blank International S.A ("PB Int'l"). DHB Sports Group consists of NDL Products Inc. ("NDL") and Orthopedic Products Inc. ("OPI"). DHB Electronics Group consists of Lanxide Electronic Components ("LEC") and DHB KK. All material inter-company balances and transactions have been eliminated. Business description DHB Armor Group develops, manufactures, and distributes bullet and projectile resistant garments, bullet resistant and fragmentation vests, bomb projectile blankets, aircraft armor, bullet resistant plates and shields and related ballistic accessories. DHB Sports Group manufactures and distributes specialized protective athletic apparel and equipment and orthopedic products. DHB Electronics Group manufactures and markets thermal management, packaging and structural components for the electronic industry within the United States and Japan. Uses of estimates in the preparation of financial statements The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of net revenue and expenses during each reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Revenue recognition Revenue from product sales is recognized at the time the product is shipped. Inventories Inventories are valued at the lower of cost (determined on the first-in, first-out basis), or market. Property, plant and equipment and depreciation Property, plant and equipment are stated at cost. Major additions, improvements, and renewals, which substantially increase the useful lives of assets, are capitalized. Maintenance, repairs, and minor renewals are expensed as incurred. F-8 Note 1 SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES - Continued Depreciation is provided for both financial reporting and income tax purposes using the straight-line and accelerated methods. Marketable/Non-Marketable Securities Investments in marketable securities are accounted for according to the provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 115, "Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt and Equity Securities" (SFAS 115). Management of DHB classified all its marketable securities as trading securities and, accordingly, unrealized gains and losses are reflected in earnings. Non-marketable securities are valued at historical cost and if necessary, reduced by a valuation allowance to the net realizable value. Intangible assets Intangible assets are stated at cost and are amortized over their estimated useful lives (see Note 7). Income taxes DHB and its domestic subsidiaries file a consolidated Federal income tax return and separate state income tax returns. DHB accounts for deferred income taxes in accordance with SFAS Statement No. 109 which requires that deferred tax assets and liabilities be recognized for the future tax consequence attributable to differences between financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. In addition, SFAS No. 109 requires recognition of future tax benefits, such as net operating loss carryforwards, to the extent that realization of such benefits is more likely than not and that a valuation allowance be provided when it is more likely than not that some portion of the deferred tax asset will not be realized. Research and development expenses Research and development expenses are expensed as incurred. The Company expensed approximately $825,000 in 1999, $523,000 in 1998 and $278,000 in 1997 for research and development costs. Advertising expenses The cost of advertising is expensed as incurred. The Company incurred approximately $1,062,000, $642,000, and $904,000 of advertising costs in 1999, 1998, and 1997 respectively. Note 1 SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES - Continued Earnings per share In 1997, the Company adopted SFAS no. 128, "Earnings Per Share" which required retroactive adoption. The new standard simplifies the computation of earnings per share and requires the presentation of basic and diluted earnings per share. Basic income per share amounts are based on the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the years presented. Diluted income per share amounts are based on the weighted average number of shares of common stock and stock options outstanding during the years presented. Comprehensive income (loss) Effective January 1, 1998, the Company adopted the provision of statement No. 130, Reporting comprehensive income which modifies the financial presentation of comprehensive income and its components. In accordance with this Statement, a Consolidated Statement of Comprehensive Income is included in the Consolidated financial statements to present all changes in Stockholders' equity in the periods presented other than changes resulting from transactions relating to the Company's stock. Stock based compensation Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123, "Accounting for Stock Based Compensation" (SFAS 123) encourages, but does not require companies to record compensation cost for stock-based employee compensation at fair value. DHB has chosen not to adopt SFAS 123 and to continue to account for stock-based compensation using the intrinsic value method prescribed in Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25, "Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees," and related interpretations. Accordingly, compensation cost for stock options is measured as the excess, if any, of the quoted market price of the Company's stock at the date of the grant over the amount an employee must pay to acquire the stock. Impairment of long-lived assets DHB accounts for the impairment of long-lived assets in accordance with SFAS No. 121 which requires that long-lived assets and identifiable intangibles held and used by a company be reviewed for possible impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Note 2 SUPPPLEMENTAL CASH FLOW INFORMATION Cash paid for: 1999 1998 1997 ---- ---- ---- Interest 355,160 308,282 269,450 Taxes 63,933 78,877 11,971 During the year ended December 31, 1998, the Company purchased LEC and LAP for a cash payment of $4.8 million less cash acquired of $250,927. The Company also purchased DHB KK for a cash payment of $375,000. The total cash paid for acquisitions during 1998, net of cash acquired total $4,924,073. During the year ended December 31, 1997, the Company had non-cash investing activities when it issued common stock to acquire all of the outstanding stock of PB Int'l. F-10 Note 3 BUSINESS ACQUISITIONS On February 9, 1998, the Company purchased the common stock of two privately held Delaware corporations, Lanxide Armor Products Inc. (LAP) and Lanxide Electronic Components Inc. (LEC). The purchase price was approximately $4.8 million and was funded by an additional loan from the Company's majority shareholder. LAP specializes in the design, development and manufacture of ceramic/metal matrix composites for protective armor applications. LEC is a leading supplier of silicon carbide / aluminum composites for heat management applications in the electronics industry. This transaction was accounted for as a purchase. On May 28, 1998, the Company acquired a Japanese subsidiary, DHB KK, for a cash payment of $375,000. This company markets LEC's products in Japan. In February, 1997 DHB acquired 100% of the issued and outstanding common stock of Zunblindage S.A., a Belgian corporation, in exchange for 666,000 shares of DHB common stock valued at an aggregate of $1,000,000. In January 1999, Zunblindage S.A.'s name was changed to Point Blank International ("PB Int'l"). PB Int'l manufactures and distributes bullet resistant equipment, apparel and related products generally in Europe and the Middle East. The above acquisitions were accounted for using the purchase method of accounting, pursuant to which the purchase price was allocated based upon the estimated fair values of the assets acquired as of the dates of acquisition. The purchase of PB Int'l resulted in goodwill of $541,000. The purchases of LAP, LEC, and DHB KK resulted in goodwill of approximately $500,000. In the opinion of management, if the results of operations of the acquired businesses had been included in the consolidated financial statements since the beginning of the year, it would not have a material effect on the results of operations. Note 4 MARKETABLE SECURITIES/NON-MARKETABLE SECURITIES The following is a comparison of the cost and market value of marketable securities included in current assets: 1999 1998 ---- ---- Cost $0 $476,361 Unrealized gain -- 52,967 -- -------- Market Value $0 $529,328 == ======== The Company has acquired minority interests in non-marketable securities, at December 31, 1997 the historical cost was $2,316,750 reduced by a valuation allowance of $628,000 to bring the carrying value of these securities to the net realizable value of $1,688,750 at December 31, 1998.

Stock option plan In October, 1995, the Company adopted a plan (the "1995 Stock Option Plan" or the "Plan") pursuant to which the Board of Directors was authorized to award options to purchase up to 3,500,000 shares of Common Stock to selected officers, employees, agents, consultants and other persons who render services to the Company. The options may be issued on such terms and conditions as determined by the Board or Committee, and may be issued so as to qualify as incentive stock options under Internal Revenue Code Section 422A. No options have been granted under the plan. Stock warrants During 1999, the three members of the board were awarded 25,000 warrants exercisable at $3.25 for three years for serving as a board member. During 1997, the Board of Directors granted 50,000 stock warrants exercisable at $2.00 per share to a key employee expiring in June 2000. Pursuant to employment agreements (See Note 14), the Company has 1,549,500 stock warrants outstanding exercisable at $1.33 per share and expiring in 2003. In A relative of the majority stockholder, stock warrants to purchase 3,750,000 shares of common stock for $1.33 per share expiring in 1999, which were extended until September 2003. Note 12 DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS. In October 1999, the Company announced its strategic decision to discontinue the operations of its Lanxide Subsidiaries, LAP and the Electronics Group (LEC and DHB KK). LAP operations where shut down while the Electronics Group was put up for sale. The sale price of the division would be $4.275 million, less the outstanding long-term debt. The transaction was closed on March 10, 2000. See - Note 19 - Subsequent Events. The results of the closure of LAP and the Electronics Group have been reported separately as discontinued operations. Prior year financial statements have been restated to present LAP and the Electronics Group as a discontinued operation. F-14 Note 12 DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS. The components of net assets of the discontinued operations included in the balance sheet are as follows: December 31, 1999 1998 ---------- ---------- Current assets (mainly trade receivables and inventory) $1,865,454 $3,037,574 Accounts payable and accrued expenses 896,552 1,615,425 ---------- ---------- Net current assets 968,902 1,422,149 ---------- ---------- Property, plant and equipment, net 2,866,471 2,475,192 Other non-current assets 93,607 55,356 ---------- ---------- Net Long-term assets 2,960,078 2,530,548 ---------- ---------- The condensed statements of operations relating to the discontinued operations are presented below 1999 1998 Net Sales $7,514,541 $8,761,007 Cost and expenses 11,753,701 10,390,038 ---------- ---------- Loss before income taxes (4,239,160) (1,629,031) Provision for taxes --- 660 Net Loss (4,239,160) (1,628,371) ----------- ----------- Note 13 HURRICANE LOSS On October 15, 1999, the office and manufacturing facility located in Oakland Park, Florida suffered extensive damage due to hurricane Irene. Substantial damage was done to the building as well as inventory. The Company currently has a lawsuit with their insurance companies to recover some of the loss, but as of today no agreement has been reached. The Company expensed the entire loss in October 1999 and has not recorded a receivable for any amount, which may be due from the insurance companies. Note 14 RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS A summary of related party transactions for the years ended December 31, 1999, 1998 and 1997 is as follows: 1999 1998 1997 -------- -------- -------- Rental expense accrued to the relatives of the majority stockholder $711,858 $753,235 $546,000 Rental expense accrued to the President of a subsidiary of DHB 48,000 48,000 48,000 Interest, rental, professional and other expenses accrued on a loan from DHB's majority stockholder 5,064,765 992,359 177,340 See Note 14 for details of the lease with a related party F-15 Note 15 RISKS AND UNCERTAINTIES The Company maintains cash balances at various financial institutions. Accounts at each institution are insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation up to $100,000. The Company's accounts at these institutions may, at times, exceed the federally insured limits. The Company has not experienced any losses in such accounts. Approximately 35%, 22% and 27% for the years ended December 31, 1999, 1998 and 1997, respectively, of DHB's sales were made to the United States Government or its agencies. Certain factors relating to the industries in which DHB operates and the Company's business should be carefully considered. A substantial portion of the products sold by DHB are used in situations which could result in serious personal injuries or death, whether on account of the failure of such products, or otherwise. Although DHB maintains substantial amounts of insurance coverage to cover such risks, there is no assurance that these amounts would be sufficient to cover the payment of any potential claims. In addition, there is no assurance that this or any other insurance coverage will remain available or, if available, that DHB would be able to obtain such insurance at a reasonable cost. The inability to obtain such insurance coverage would prohibit DHB from bidding for certain orders for bullet resistant products from certain governmental customers. Substantially all of the raw materials used in the manufacturing of ballistic-resistant garments are made from fabrics which are patented by major corporations and which are purchased from three independent weaving companies. Although, in the opinion of management of DHB, DHB enjoys a good relationship with these vendors, should any of the manufacturers cease to produce these products for any reason, DHB would be required to use other fabrics. In such an event, an alternative fabric would have to be selected and ballistic test would have to be performed. Until this was done, DHB's sale of ballistic resistant products would be severely curtailed and DHB's financial condition would be materially adversely affected. Note 16 FAIR VALUES OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS The Company's financial instruments include cash, accounts receivable, accounts payable and long-term debt. The carrying values of cash, accounts receivable, accounts payable and long-term debt approximate their fair values. The Company's long-term debt is not traded and has no quoted market value, however management believes any difference between its carrying value and fair value would not be material in relation to the consolidated financial statements. Note 17 SEGMENT INFORMATION: The Company operates in three principal segments: Ballistic-resistant equipment, Electronics and Protective athletic/medical equipment. The Company designs, manufacturers and markets products in the segments as described above.

(1) Corporate and Other includes corporate general and administrative expenses (2) Corporate assets are principally cash, marketable securities, and deferred charges (3) Discontinued operations included the Companies sold, LEC and DHB KK as well as the loss from the shutdown of the LAP plant. F-17 Note 18 COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES Leases DHB leases a warehouse and manufacturing facility from a partnership indirectly owned by the majority stockholder of DHB on a month-to-month basis with annual rentals of $480,000. In addition, DHB must pay real estate taxes and certain operating expenses of this property. DHB leases a warehouse and manufacturing facility from the president of one of its subsidiaries on a month-by-month basis with annual rentals of $43,200, plus real estate taxes. The Company has a four-year lease for a 60,000 square foot warehouse adjacent to the existing Florida facility with an annual rental of approximately $210,000. In association with the acquisition of PB Int'l, the Company assumed a lease for their warehouse and store in Liege, Belgium. This space is occupied pursuant to a nine-year lease with annual rentals of approximately, $42,000. In association with the acquisitions of LAP and LEC, the Company assumed a lease for 82,000 square feet of office and warehouse facility in Delaware, as well as, a 3,500 square foot ballistic testing range. The lease expires in March 2001 and provides for annual base rentals of $420,000. This location was relinquished when the Company sold LEC in March 2000. The Company entered into a three-year lease for their corporate headquarters January 1, 2000. The premises are for a 3,750 square foot office space with annual rental of $44,250 with annual increases of 5%. Rent and real estate tax expense charged to operations for the years ended December 31, 1999, 1998 and 1997 aggregated approximately $1,684,000, $1,917,000 and $962,000, respectively. Employment agreements The Company is committed under an employment agreement with its majority stockholder, which expires in April 2001 and provides for an annual salary of $325,000 and annual increases of $25,000 thereafter. In addition, the contract provides for the annual grant of 750,000 warrants to the principal stockholder, which are exercisable at $2.33 per share and expire five years from date of grant. F-18 Note 18 COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES - Continued Litigation In October 1999, certain agencies of the United States government began a preliminary investigation of the Company's employment practices, amongst other things. Management has indicated that the counsel for the Company feels that the Government does not intend to pursue any criminal actions and management believes the exposure to civil penalties is not a material amount. The Company is subject to other legal proceedings and claims, which have risen in the ordinary course of its business and have not been finally adjudicated. These actions when ultimately concluded and determined will not, in the opinion of management, have a material adverse effect on the results of operations or the financial condition of the Company.
