NOTE 5 INCOME TAXES
Wheels Sports Group, Inc. and World of Racing, Inc. elected
under Subchapter S of the Internal Revenue Code to have their
taxable income included in the income tax returns of their
individual shareholders for all periods prior to January 1,
1997. Diamond Sports Group, Inc. made a similar election for
all periods prior to July 1, 1997. Subsequent to those dates,
the companies were taxable as regular Subchapter C
corporations.
For periods in which the companies were subject to the
Subchapter S elections, no taxes on income have been provided.
However, for informational purposes, the statements of
operations include a proforma income tax provision on taxable
income for financial statement purposes using statutory
federal and state rates that would have applied had the
companies been taxed as regular Subchapter C corporations.
For periods in which the companies were taxable as regular
corporations, no provision for an income tax benefit has been
recognized because the realization of such a benefit is
dependent on future taxable income. The Company intends to
record such a benefit when its realization is considered
assured.
NOTE 6 DISTRIBUTIONS TO SHAREHOLDERS
In connection with the termination of the Subchapter S
elections of Wheels Sports Group, Inc. and Diamond Sports
Group, Inc., distributions of $400,000 and $36,000 were made
to those individual shareholders required to report on their
personal tax returns the taxable incomes of the respective
companies. These distributions represent the Company's
estimate of the shareholders' tax liability on the
corporations' income.
NOTE 7 INITIAL PUBLIC OFFERING
On April 16, 1997, the Company's Registration Statement for
the sale of 1,035,000 shares of common stock and 1,035,000
warrants for the purchase of common stock was declared
effective by the Securities and Exchange Commission. Gross
proceeds from the sale of the shares and warrants were
$6,210,000 and expenses of the offering were $1,466,490. Of
these expenses, $248,778 were paid in 1996 and $1,217,712 were
paid in 1997.
8
NOTE 8 STOCK OPTIONS
On April 16, 1997, the Company awarded 350,000 options to
purchase common stock to certain employees and others. Options
are exercisable at various dates from April 16, 1998, to April
16, 2007, and at prices from $5.02 to $6.49 per share.
For options on 107,000 shares granted to non-employees, the
Company will recognize expense at $3.31 per optioned share
over the vesting period or, for options granted in connection
with royalty agreements with NASCAR personalities, over the
royalty period. The vesting period is generally one year and
the current average royalty period is three years. Expense of
$47,720 was recognized in the period ended June 30, 1997.
The remaining 243,000 options to employees will be accounted
for using the intrinsic value method whereby expense is
recognized only when the option price is lower than the market
price at the date of the grant. Disclosure of the value of the
options under Statement 123 of the Financial Accounting
Standards Board will be provided in the 1997 audited financial
statements.

NOTE 10 SUBSEQUENT EVENTS
On July 22, 1997, the Company announced it had signed a
non-binding letter of intent to acquire Greens Racing
Souvenirs, Inc., a privately held company located in South
Boston, Virginia, and which sells NASCAR oriented racing
souvenirs at race tracks and by mail. The transaction is
intended to be accounted for as a pooling of interests, and is
contingent on signing a definitive agreement and the approval
of the Company's Board of Directors.
On August 5, 1997, the Company acquired Emerald Sports Group,
Inc., a privately held company involved in merchandising
NASCAR related home decor items, in exchange for 60,000 shares
of Wheels Sports Group common stock. The transaction will be
accounted for as a purchase.

WHEELS SPORTS GROUP, INC.
ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
GENERAL
The Company's business is seasonal in nature and therefore the results of
operations for any one or more quarters or its financial condition at any
specific time are not necessarily indicative of annual results, continuing
trends, or future financial condition.
FINANCIAL CONDITION
As of June 30, 1997, the Company's principal sources of liquidity included cash
of $3,343,000 and net accounts receivable of $1,503,000. As of such date,
current assets were $5,533,000 as compared to current liabilities of $1,804,000.
Long-term debt net of current maturities was $431,000.
During the six months ended June 30, 1997 the Company's financial condition
strengthened as a result of its successful initial public offering of 1,035,000
shares of common stock, which resulted in net proceeds of $4,743,000. This was
in part offset by continued losses from the Fantasy World Racing game (the
"Game") operated by the Company's subsidiary, and operating losses in its
trading card business. Proceeds of the public offering were used to repay
$650,000 in short term bank borrowings, pay approximately $300,000 in operating
costs and $150,000 in capital expenditures related to the Game, and pay $150,000
for the acquisition of land for the construction of an office and warehouse
building. Of the $650,000 in bank borrowings, $400,000 had been incurred to fund
a distribution to shareholders to pay their personal tax liabilities on income
of the Company, as disclosed in Note 5 to the Consolidated Financial Statements.
The balance of the proceeds were used to increase working capital, including
funding a reduction of $927,000 in accounts payable and accrued expenses. The
remaining working capital will be used for continued funding of operations of
the Game, for anticipated expansion of the business of the Company's subsidiary,
Diamond Sports Group ("Diamond"), for expansion of marketing and promotional
activities, and for general corporate purposes. These funds are expected to
provide adequate liquidity and working capital for the Company's current
businesses for at least the next 12 months. Should the Company become involved
in one or more new business ventures requiring additional working capital, the
Company may attempt to obtain additional financing through bank lines of credit
or other sources.
During the first quarter of 1997, the Company experienced slightly slower than
usual collections and higher than usual returns on a trading card set sold in
late 1996, Crown Jewels Elite. During that quarter, the Company accepted product
returns totaling $56,000 and increased its reserves for additional returns by
$54,000. During the second quarter of 1997, it became apparent that the Crown
Jewels Elite product had been improperly packaged by the Company's contract
packager and that there was a substantial problem
11
collecting accounts receivable relating to that product line. The Company
recognized that the packaging of Crown Jewels Elite did not meet industry
standards and therefore the product was less salable by its dealers and
distributors. The Company was constrained to accept product returns and issued
approximately $334,000 in credits and price concessions to its customers. As a
result, during the six months ended June 30, 1997, the Company increased its
reserves for returns by $347,000, of which $54,000 was in the first quarter and
$293,000 was in the second quarter. The Company has filed suit against the
packager of Crown Jewels Elite seeking unspecified damages.
The net loss from operations was partially funded by reductions in accounts
receivable and inventories of $269,000 and $220,000 respectively. Deferred
revenues, which is prepayments by participants in the Game and advance payments
of royalties and fees by corporate customers of Diamond, increased by $204,000.
Other current assets increased $199,000, primarily as a result of increases of
$125,000 in prepaid advertising in connection with the Game.
Capital expenditures were $240,000, including $150,000 for the acquisition of
land and $90,000 for computers, software, and related items. Payments on long
term debt totaled $77,000 and short term debt, including loans from shareholders
and officers, was reduced by $75,000.
The Company is currently evaluating its needs and current facilities for office
and warehouse space, and may modify previously announced plans accordingly. The
Company has agreed to acquire for approximately $300,000 in cash the 4,500
square foot building near Charlotte, North Carolina currently occupied by its
subsidiary, Diamond. Closing of the transaction is expected during the last half
of August, 1997.
On August 5, 1997 the Company acquired Emerald Sports Group, Inc., a privately
held company which merchandises NASCAR related home decor items such as
comforters, bed spreads, place mats and wall hangings. Emerald was acquired for
60,000 shares of the Company's common stock in a transaction that will be
accounted for as a purchase.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Net revenues during the quarter ended June 30, 1997 were $1,454,000 compared to
$2,045,000 during the same quarter in the prior year, a decrease of $591,000 or
29%. Net revenues for the six months ended June 30, 1997 were $3,154,000
compared to $2,541,000 for the same six month period in the prior year, an
increase of $613,000 or 24%. During the second quarter of 1997, the Company
released one trading card set, Predator, which created $766,000 in revenue, and
derived $347,000 from sales of other products and activities. These revenues
were offset by returns and price adjustments of $334,000 on the Crown Jewels
Elite card set. Revenues were lower during the second quarter of 1997 as
compared to the same period in the prior year due to the 1996 introduction of
Viper, the most successful trading card set in the Company's history,
12
which created revenues of approximately $1,500,000 during the second quarter of
1996. Diamond, the subsidiary acquired June 30, 1997 in a pooling of interests
transaction, had its second quarter revenues increase to $592,000 from $335,000
in the same quarter of the previous year, and increase of $257,000 or 77%. For
the six months ended June 30, 1997, Diamond's revenues were $1,600,000 compared
to $463,000 for the same period of the prior year, an increase of $1,137,000 or
246%. These increases reflect the expansion of Diamond's business as it added
new retail products and corporate clients. The Game, which started operations in
1997, contributed revenues of $80,000 in the second quarter of 1997 and $121,000
in the six months ended June 30, 1997.
Cost of sales during the second quarter of 1997 were $1,356,000 as compared to
$1,215,000 during the second quarter, 1996, an increase of $141,000 or 12%. As a
percentage of net revenues, costs of sales was 93% in the second quarter of 1997
as compared to 59% in the second quarter of 1996. The increase in cost of sales
as a percentage of revenues resulted primarily from the reduction in 1997 net
revenues because of credits relating to Crown Jewels Elite returns and the
strong 1996 revenues from the complete sell out of the Viper trading card set.
Cost of sales in the six months ended June 30, 1997 was $2,864,000 compared to
$1,412,000 for the same period in the prior year, an increase of $1,451,000 or
103%. The increase was the result of the Company's having had very low cost of
sales in the first quarter of 1996 because most sales during that period were of
trading cards produced in previous years and carried in inventory at nominal
value, and of the growth of the business of Diamond.
Gross margin during the second quarter of 1997 was $97,000 as compared to
$830,000 during the second quarter of 1996. The decline in gross margin was
primarily attributable to the combined effects of the credits issued with
respect to Crown Jewels Elite returns and the unusual margins produced by Viper
in 1996.
Selling, general and administrative expenses increased $441,000, or 138%, from
$319,000 in the second quarter of 1996 to $760,000 in the second quarter of
1997. Of this increase, $223,000 is attributable to the start up of the Game and
$115,000 is attributable to Diamond. As a percentage of net revenues, such
expenses increased from 16% in the second quarter of 1996 to 53% in the second
quarter of 1997. For the six months ended June 30, 1997, selling, general and
administrative expenses increased $767,000, or 126%, from $611,000 in the same
period of 1996 to $1,378,000 in 1997. Of this increase, $374,000 is attributable
to the Game (which was not in operation during the second quarter of 1996) and
$252,000 is attributable to Diamond (which had started business in late 1995 and
had only limited operations during early 1996).
The Company and its subsidiary, World of Racing, had elected under Subchapter S
of the Internal Revenue Code to have their income taxed on the returns of their
individual shareholders for periods prior to 1997. Diamond made a similar
election for periods ending prior to its June 30, 1997 acquisition by the
Company. For that reason, no provision for income tax expense has been made for
any period prior to 1997. The operating losses incurred by the Company in the
first half of 1997 will create taxable
13
losses which will be deductible against taxable income in 1997, and possibly
later years. However, the Company does not intend to record any future tax
benefit from those losses until the timing and amount of their realization is
substantially assured.
As a result of the foregoing, the net loss for the second quarter of 1997 was
$677,000 as compared to a net income of $511,000 during the second quarter of
1996. Of that loss, $251,000 was attributable to the Game and approximately
$330,000 was attributable to credits and returns on Crown Jewels Elite trading
cards. For the six months ended June 30, 1997, the net loss was $1,125,000 as
compared to a net income of $519,000 for the same period of 1996. Of that loss,
$413,000 is attributable to the Game and $814,000 is attributable to the trading
card business, including the $330,000 in costs relating to the Crown Jewels
Elite card sets as described above.
