NOTES TO CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)
NOTE 1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION
The Company is a developer, marketer and distributor of child safety and
child care, convenience, activity and home security products.
The accompanying unaudited condensed financial statements of the Company
have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities
and Exchange Commission ("SEC") and, in the opinion of management, reflect
all adjustments (consisting of only normal recurring adjustments) necessary
to present fairly the financial position, results of operations and cash
flows for the periods presented.
Certain information and footnote disclosures included in financial
statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting
principles have been condensed or omitted. These condensed financial
statements should be read in conjunction with the audited financial
statements and notes thereto included in the financial statements filed as
part of the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K filed for the year ended
December 31, 1996.
The results of the operations for the nine months ended September 27,
1997 are not necessarily indicative of the operating results for the
full year.
Effective April 1, 1997, the Company changed its reporting period from
a calendar year to a 52/53 week period ending on the Saturday closest
to December 31. Management does not expect the change to have a
material effect on the statement of operations.
The Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of Financial
Accounting Standards No. 128, "Earnings Per Share" (SFAS 128). SFAS 128
is required to be implemented for the year ended December 31, 1997 and
requires the presentation of basic earnings per share and, if
applicable, diluted earnings per share, instead of primary and fully
diluted earnings per share. Management does not expect that the
adoption of SFAS 128 will have a material impact on the Company's
earnings per share.
NOTE 2. OTHER MATTERS
On July 30, 1997, the Company entered into a $55,000,000 refinancing of
its existing $45,000,000 credit facility. The refinancing includes a
new $40,000,000 credit facility providing for $27,500,000 of revolving
working capital financing and a $12,500,000 term-loan with a new
lender. The new credit facility, which expires in July 2002, has an
interest rate, at the Company's option, of LIBOR plus 2.75% or prime
plus 1.75% on the revolving credit facility, and LIBOR plus 3% or prime
plus 2% on the term-loan. The refinancing also includes a $15,000,000
private placement of 15,000 shares of six-year redeemable preferred
stock with a liquidation preference of $1,000 per share plus accrued
but unpaid dividends and a dividend rate of either 10% in cash or
13.25% non-cash, compounded quarterly. The preferred stock includes the
issuance of ten-year warrants to purchase approximately 1,270,000
shares of the Company's common stock, subject to adjustment, at an
exercise price of $.01 per share. The proceeds of $15,000,000 from the
private placement were allocated to the redeemable preferred stock and
the warrants in the amount of $9,000,000 and $6,000,000, respectively,
based on the estimated value at the issue date.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS
OF OPERATIONS.
Statement of Forward-Looking Information:
The Company may occasionally make forward-looking statements and estimates, such
as forecasts and projections of the Company's future performance or statements
of management's plans and objectives. These forward-looking statements may be
contained in SEC filings, Annual Reports to Shareholders, Press Releases and
oral statements, among others, made by the Company. Actual results could differ
materially from those in such forward-looking statements. Therefore, no
assurances can be given that the results in such forward-looking statements will
be achieved. Important factors that could cause the Company's actual results to
differ from those contained in such forward-looking statements include, among
others, those factors set forth in Exhibit 99 to this Report.
Results of Operations:
THREE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 27, 1997 AND SEPTEMBER 30, 1996
Net sales for the three months ended September 27, 1997 decreased 9.5% to
approximately $26,446,000 from $29,226,000 in the comparable period of 1996. The
decrease is due to an expected decrease in sales of existing products carried
forward from the previous years' line from $23,347,000 in 1996 to $20,295,000 in
1997, due to the SKU reduction plan initiated in 1996. This decrease was
slightly offset by an increase in new product sales from $5,879,000 in the third
quarter of 1996 to $6,151,000 in the comparable period for 1997. Juvenile sales
comprised 98% of the business while home security sales made up the balance.
Gross profit for the three months ended September 27, 1997 was $11,035,000, or
41.7% of net sales, as compared to $9,674,416, or 33.1%, for the three months
ended September 30, 1996, and $11,214,415, or 38.7% for the same period last
year, excluding the 1996 third quarter special charges. The increase in gross
profit percentage is due to a favorable product mix and improved product costs.
Selling, general and administrative expenses decreased by $297,000 to $8,573,000
for the three months ended September 27, 1997, from $8,870,000 for the
comparable period in 1996. This decrease is primarily attributable to continued
focus on cost controls in 1997 primarily in the areas of temporary help,
professional and consulting fees.
As a result of the above factors, operating income for the three months ended
September 27, 1997 was $2,462,000. The operating income for the comparable
period last year was $804,000.
Interest expense increased to $1,101,000 for the three months ended September
27, 1997 from $816,000 for the three months ended September 30, 1996 due to
additional borrowings under the revolving credit facility.
Net income available for common shareholders for the third quarter of 1997 was
$2,379,000, or $0.29 per share, including a one-time tax benefit of $2,000,000
related to the realization of a portion of tax loss carry forwards which were
not recognized at the end of 1996. Excluding the $2,000,000 tax benefit, net
income available to common shareholders, which takes into account both dividends
and accretion on redeemable preferred stock, would have been $400,000, or $.05
per share, compared to a loss of $233,000, or $.03 per share, for the same
period last year.
NINE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 27, 1997 AND SEPTEMBER 30, 1996
Net sales for the nine months ended September 27, 1997 decreased 11% to
approximately $79,844,000 from $89,841,000 in the comparable period in 1996 due
to a decrease in sales of new products from $23,325,000 in 1996 compared to
$11,775,000 in 1997. This decrease was primarily the result of the shift in
timing of new product introductions in 1997 as compared to 1996, as well as the
Company's reduction of the number of new products introduced in 1997 versus
1996. This decrease was offset by an increase in sales of existing products
carried forward from the previous years' line from $66,516,000 in 1996 to
$68,069,000 in 1997.
9
10
Gross profit for the nine months ended September 27, 1997 was $32,328,000, or
40.4%, of net sales versus $27,679,000, or 30.8%, for the comparable period in
1996. Excluding special charges in 1996, gross profit would have been
$35,273,000 or 38.8%, of net sales.
Selling, general and administrative expenses were $25,364,000 for the nine
months ended September 27, 1997. For the same period ending 1996, selling,
general and administrative expenses were $35,808,000, a decrease of $10,444,000.
Excluding 1996 year to date special charges of $7,115,000, the decrease would
have been $3,329,000. This decrease is attributable to the variable cost
component of selling, general and administrative costs consistent with the
decrease in net sales, and a decrease due to the continued focus on spending
controls, primarily in the areas of temporary help, professional and consulting
fees.
As a result of the above factors, operating income was $6,964,000 for the nine
moths ended September 27, 1997 versus an operating loss of ($8,129,000) during
the same period in 1996.
Interest expense increased from $2,325,000 for the nine months ended September
30, 1996 to $3,364,000 for the comparable period in 1997 due to additional
borrowings under the existing credit facility.
Net income available for common shareholders for the nine months ended September
27, 1997 was $3,790,000, or $.50 per share, including a one-time tax benefit of
$2,000,000 related to the realization of a portion of tax loss carry forwards
which were not recognized at the end of 1996. Excluding the $2,000,000 tax
benefit, net income available to common shareholders, which takes into account
both dividends and accretion on redeemable preferred stock, would have been
$1,790,000, or $.24 per share, compared to a loss of $6,722,144, or $.94 per
share, for the comparable period last year.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
On July 30, 1997 the Company entered into a $55,000,000 refinancing of its
existing $45,000,000 credit facility. The refinancing includes a new $40,000,00
credit facility providing for $27,500,000 of revolving working capital financing
and a $12,500,000 term-loan with a new lender. The credit facility, which
expires in July 2002, has an interest rate, at the Company's option, of LIBOR
plus 2.75% or prime plus 1.75% on the revolving credit facility, and LIBOR plus
3% or prime plus 2% on the term-loan. The refinancing also includes a
$15,000,000 private placement of 15,000 shares of six-year redeemable preferred
stock with a liquidation preference of $1,000 per share plus accrued but unpaid
dividends and a dividend rate of either 10% in cash or 13.25% non-cash,
compounded quarterly. The preferred stock includes the issuance of ten-year
warrants to purchase approximately 1,270,000 shares of the Company's common
stock, subject to adjustment, at an exercise price of $.01 per share. The
proceeds of $15,000,000 from the private placement were allocated to redeemable
preferred stock and the warrants in the amount of $9,000,000 and $6,000,000,
respectively, based on the estimated value at the issue date.
For the period from January, 1997 through July, 1997, the Company had financed
its operations with a $45,000,000 credit facility consisting of a $25,000,000
term-loan and $20,000,000 revolving credit facility, both of which were
scheduled to expire on May 1, 1998. Under this credit facility, the Company's
cost of funds was scheduled to increase at compounding rates over the term of
indebtedness and, therefore, it was the Company's intent to seek other financing
on terms more favorable to the Company to help meet future needs.
In addition to refinancing the revolving credit facility, management commenced
and initiated a plan to improve both liquidity and operating income. The
objectives of the plan are to simplify business practices, reduce operating
costs, and reduce working capital requirements. Implementation of the plan
started in 1996 and is continuing through 1997. There are no assurances,
however, that the actions taken, or to be taken, by the Company will achieve the
above intended objectives.
Net cash used in operations decreased to $5,444,000 for the nine months ended
September 27, 1997 versus net cash used in operations of $5,680,000 for the nine
months ended September 30, 1996. Cash from operations was primarily improved by
the receipt of a tax refund offset by a decrease in accounts payable and accrued
expenses.
10
11
Cash flows used in investing activities was $4,544,000 due to the purchase of
property and equipment, principally molds for new product introductions as well
as the purchase of an integrated computer system which is in the process of
being implemented. During 1997, net cash provided by financing activities was
$10,642,000, primarily related to proceeds from the Company's debt and equity
refinancing in July 1997 offset by the refinancing fees, and repayment of the
notes payable issued in connection with the acquisition of Orleans Juvenile
Products, Inc. in February 1996.
The Company believes that its cash, together with its new financing will be
sufficient to meet its operating and other cash requirements for the next twelve
months.

PART II - OTHER INFORMATION
ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
On September 8, 1997, Tele Electronic (Taiwan) Co., Ltd. ("Tele
Electronic") filed a lawsuit in Middlesex Superior Court in Massachusetts
against the Company alleging breach of contract arising out of two purchase
orders. The suit seeks monetary damages for the alleged breach of contract in
the amount of $3.45 million and also alleges unfair and deceptive business
practices and seeks, under this theory, an award equal to three times the
alleged contractual damages. Tele Electronic also sought preliminary injunctive
relief which, after a hearing, the Court denied. The Company denies the
allegations of the lawsuit, intends to defend the matter vigorously and has also
filed a counterclaim against Tele Electronic for damages caused by various acts
and omissions of Tele Electronic, relating to prior purchase orders. The
Company's counterclaim seeks monetary damages totaling approximately $1.3
million.
The Company encounters personal injury litigation related to its products
in the ordinary course of business. The Company maintains product liability
insurance in amounts deemed adequate by the Company's management. The Company
believes that there are no claims or litigation pending of such nature, the
outcome of which could have material adverse effect on the financial position of
the Company.
ITEM 2. CHANGES IN SECURITIES AND USE OF PROCEEDS
(c) On July 30, 1997, the Company issued 15,000 shares of Series A
Redeemable Preferred Stock ($1.00 par value per share) (the "Preferred Shares")
and warrants to purchase 1,268,346 shares of the Company's Common Stock (the
"Warrants") to BT Capital Partners, Inc. ("BT Capital") and Bear, Stearns & Co.,

consideration paid for the Preferred Shares and the Warrants was, in the
aggregate, $15 million. The Preferred Shares are not convertible into Common
Stock of the Company. The Warrants are exercisable through July 30, 2007 at an
exercise price of $.01 per share of Common Stock to be acquired, and contain
provisions which adjust the number of shares of Common Stock underlying the
Warrants to protect the Investors from dilution arising from certain events, as
defined. Of the Warrants for 634,173 shares of Common Stock issued to each
Investor, Warrants for 63,418 shares (subject to such adjustment) to each
Investor will revert to the Company if the Company's 1998 earnings before
interest and taxes exceed $16 million (and if prior to the determination of such
amount, there has not been a change in control of the Company). The Preferred
Shares and Warrants were sold pursuant to an exemption from registration under
Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933.
