Page 7 NEW RETAIL CONCEPTS, INC. NOTES TO INTERIM FINANCIAL STATEMENTS September 30, 1996 AND 1995 NOTE A - ORGANIZATION AND BASIS FOR PRESENTATION New Retail Concepts, Inc. ("NRC" or the "Company"), is engaged in managing its existing corporate assets and in seeking other business opportunities for acquisition or merger. The condensed financial statements included herein are unaudited and include all adjustments which are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair presentation of the results of operations of the interim period pursuant to the rules and regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in generally accepted accounting principles have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations, although the Company believes that the disclosures in such financial statements are adequate to make the information presented not misleading. These condensed financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company's Financial Statements and the notes thereto included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-KSB for the fiscal year ended March 31, 1996. The Company has no full-time employees and three part-time employees which include the Chairman of the Board and President and the Chief Financial Officer of the Company. NOTE B - CORPORATE ASSETS The Company owns 1,227,696 shares of the common stock of Candie's, Inc. ("Candie's"), a Delaware corporation whose shares are traded on the Nasdaq National Market, warrants to purchase 700,000 additional shares of such common stock exercisable at an initial price of $1.2375 per share and an option to purchase for $1.15 per share 100,000 additional shares of such common stock. The Company's holding in Candie's is recorded on the equity method of accounting. At September 30, 1996, such holding was carried at $1,372,892, including approximately $670,000 of goodwill (net of amortization) which is being amortized over a ten-year period. Revenues, gross profit and net income of Candie's for the six months ended July 31, 1996 are as follows: Net Revenues $15,041,826 Gross Profit $2,553,067 Net Income $439,539 The other corporate assets involving management by the Company include an account receivable from No Excuses Sportswear, Ltd. ("NES"), license agreements calling for the payment of royalties to the Company for the use of the NO EXCUSES(R) trademark, and the trademark CRAYONS(R). Page 8 NOTE C - MAJOR LICENSEES (CUSTOMERS) Two major licensees (customers) accounted for 84% and 16%, respectively, of total revenues for the six months ended September 30, 1996. Three major licensees accounted for 62%, 26% and 12%, respectively, of total revenues for the six month period ended September 30, 1995. Page 9 MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITIONS AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS Results of Operations Six Months Ended September 30, 1996 and 1995 Total revenues for the six months ended September 30, 1996 were $432,294 as compared to $394,531 for the corresponding period ended September 30, 1995. This increase is primarily attributable to an increase in reported shipments of the Company's No Excuses footwear licensee. Net income for the six months ended September 30, 1996 was $75,532 or $.01 per share of Common Stock, as compared to net income of $112,062 or $.02 per share of Common Stock, for the six months ended September 30, 1995. This decrease in net income is principally due to the equity in losses of its affiliate, Candie's, Inc. for the period. Selling, general and administrative expenses decreased from $404,425 for the six months ended September 30, 1995 to $321,408 for the six months ended September 30, 1996. This decrease was primarily attributable to decreases in advertising, royalty and professional fee expenses. Interest expense for the six months ended September 30, 1996 was $9,356 as compared to $14,915 for the six months ended September 30, 1995. This decrease is due to a reduction in notes payable. Three Months Ended September 30, 1996 and 1995 Total revenues for the three months ended September 30, 1996 were $274,170 as compared to $241,954 for the corresponding period ended September 30, 1995. This increase is primarily attributable to an increase in reported shipments of the Company's footwear licensee. Net income for the three months ended September 30, 1996 was $41,116 or $.01 per share of Common Stock, as compared to net income of $164,549 or $.03 per share of Common Stock, for the three months ended September 30, 1995. This decrease in net income is principally due to the losses in the equity of the investment in Candie's, Inc. during the period. Selling, general and administrative expenses decreased from $200,952 for the three months ended September 30, 1995 to $165,971 for the three months ended September 30, 1996. This decrease was primarily attributable to decreased professional fees during the period. Interest expense for the three months ended September 30, 1996 was $5,000 as compared to $8,040 for the three months ended September 30 1995. This decrease is due to a reduction in notes payable. Page 10 Liquidity and Capital Resources At September 30, 1996 the Company had working capital of $285,360 as compared to working capital of $79,944 at March 31, 1996. This increase in working capital arose primarily as a result of net income for the period. The Company satisfies its present working capital and other financial needs from royalties earned on its licensing agreements and the proceeds from the sale of certain licensing rights. Management of the Company believes that the Company will generate sufficient cash flow for the next twelve months from its current cash position and licensing fees as the sublicensor of the NO EXCUSES(R) trademark. Subsequent to September 30, 1996, the Company repurchased 70,000 shares of the Company's common stock at an aggregate purchase price of $21,054. Of such shares, 20,000 were repurchased in a private transaction and 50,000 shares were repurchased in the open market. Page 11 NEW RETAIL CONCEPTS, INC. PART II - OTHER INFORMATION Item 1.
