ITEM 1. BUSINESS
GENERAL
DHB Industries, Inc., a Delaware corporation organized in 1992
("DHB" or the "Company"), is a holding company comprised of two divisions: DHB
Armor Group and DHB Sports Group. DHB Armor Group consists of Protective Apparel
Corporation of America ("PACA"), Point Blank Body Armor Inc. ("Point Blank"),
and Point Blank International S.A. ("PB International"). DHB Armor Group
develops, manufactures and distributes bullet and projectile-resistant garments,
bullet-resistant and fragmentation vests, and related ballistic accessories. DHB
Sports Group, which consists of NDL Products, Inc. ("NDL"), manufactures and
distributes protective athletic apparel and equipment, including elbow, breast,
hip, groin, knee, shin and ankle supports and braces, as well as a line of
therapy products.
The Company's executive offices are located at 555 Westbury Avenue,
Carle Place, New York 11514. Its telephone number is 516-997-1155. The Company's
website is www.DHBT.com. The Company's manufacturing facilities are located in
Florida, Tennessee and Belgium.
DHB reincorporated in Delaware in 1995 and changed its name from DHB
Capital Group Inc. to DHB Industries, Inc. in July 2001. Its shares began
trading on the American Stock Exchange on February 1, 2002 under the symbol DHB.
DHB ARMOR GROUP
OVERVIEW. The Armor Group faced unique challenges last year. It
resisted a union organizing drive that began in the Summer of 2002. The Union of
Needletrades, Industrial and Textile Employees ("UNITE")--then engaged in a
corporate campaign aimed at financial analysts and customers in an attempt to
disparage the Company and to force it to recognize the union. Another union
brought a shareholder derivative action against the Company and its officers and
directors parroting the union's allegations, among others. The Company refused
to succumb to the union's threats. As a result, it suffered adverse publicity
and a decline in its stock price. By year's end, however, DHB had endured the
controversy still atop the body armor industry. Indeed, it continues to be the
largest provider of body armor to our nation's military as our troops go to war
against Iraq. Moreover, during the first quarter of 2003, the Armor Group has
expanded to a second production facility in South Florida, reintegrated striking
workers into its work force, and won dismissal with prejudice of that
shareholder suit. In sum, the Company emerged from a year of tumult in triumph,
and is now proudly providing the body armor that is protecting our soldiers in
battle.
PRODUCTS AND MARKETS. The DHB Armor Group, the preeminent name in the
armor industry, principally manufactures three types of body armor: concealable
armor, which is designed to be worn beneath the user's clothing; tactical armor,
which is worn externally and is designed to protect against more serious
ballistic threats; and modular concealable / tactical armor which allows the
wearer to customize the armor for either concealable or tactical use. The Armor
Group's products are sold predominantly through a network of distributors, sales
representatives, private label sales and direct contracts, with few direct
orders. All Armor Group products are certified to the applicable NIJ standards.
2
The Armor Group's "Interceptor" contract with the U.S. Department of Defense is
an integral and expanding Company program. The Interceptor program is designed
as a continually upgradeable modular, soft body armor system for the U.S.
Military. The Armor Group has now delivered over 400,000 Interceptors to the
U.S. Marine Corps, U.S. Army, and U.S. Air Force. Interceptor was worn
throughout Operation Anaconda in Afghanistan and has been credited with saving
the lives of U.S. Marines and Soldiers. The Armor Group provides different
ballistic models of the Interceptor to different braches of the U.S. Military.
Through this diversification of the Interceptor ballistic packages, Point Blank
can deliver the Interceptor at a much higher rate of production.
In addition to the Interceptor, the Armor Group manufactures a number
of other protective armor systems for military use. Fragmentation armor is
designed to U.S. government military specification and offers protection against
materials and velocities associated with the fragmentation of explosive devices
such as grenades, mortars, artillery shells and ballistic projectiles. During
2002, the Armor Group was awarded authorization to proceed with the U.S. Army
Countermine program, requiring the delivery of several thousand
anti-fragmentation Countermine Ensembles.
The Armor Group expanded the sales of its tactical body armor
throughout the U.S. during 2002 and continued to offer department-specific
modification to standard products. By providing customized tactical armor, the
Armor Group was able to increase the Company's market share specifically in the
tactical market. Many of the Armor Group's Tactical vests have become recognized
as the most advanced tactical armor available in terms of form, fit, and
function.
The Armor Group's extensive lines of body-armor products also include
tactical police jackets, military field jackets, executive vests, K-9
protection, fragmentation and close-quarter-battle systems.
During 2002, DHB's Armor Group expanded by establishing a stronger
presence in the government and international community, by opening a sales and
marketing office strategically located near Washington, D.C. DHB's Government &
International liaison office is located in the prestigious Crystal City complex,
which is in close strategic proximity to the Pentagon in Washington, D.C. This
office has been able to develop special accounts with customized products
available for immediate delivery for the Military, Domestic and International
law enforcement communities.
RAW MATERIALS AND MANUFACTURING. The Armor Group manufactures all of
its bullet, fragmentation and projectile-resistant products. The primary woven
fabrics used by the Armor Group in the manufacturing of the ballistic-resistant
products include Kevlar(TM), Twaron(TM), Zylon(TM), and shield products such as
GoldFlex(TM) and Spectra Flex(TM). Research and Development efforts ensure that
the materials are combined to suit particular applications.
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 or
manufacturing companies. 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 tests would
need 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.
RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT. DHB Armor Group's internal employee research
and development team has combined 75 years of ballistic research and development
experience, including 30+ years of experience in an NIJ certification
environment. Many of its research and development personnel previously held
positions of responsibility within the industry.
PATENTS AND TRADEMARKS. The Company holds numerous patents and
trademarks registered in the United States for various products. A number of
these patents are of considerable value and are believed to be critical to the
Company's business. No challenges to its patents and trademarks have arisen and
3
the Company has no reason to believe that any such challenge will arise in the
future. The Company has numerous patents pending for unique, futuristic
protective armor designs and integrated technologies and has been issued 9
additional trademarks during 2002.
CUSTOMERS. The Armor Group's products are sold domestically to United
States law enforcement agencies, distributors, corrections facilities and the
U.S. Military; and internationally to governments and distributors. Sales to the
United States Armed Forces directly or as a subcontractor accounted for 57%,
62%, and 57%, of the Armor Group's revenues for the years ended December 31,
2002, 2001 and 2000, respectively. Sales directly and indirectly to domestic
state and local law enforcement agencies, security and intelligence agencies,
and federal and state correctional facilities, accounted for 22%, 22%, and 30%,
respectively, of the Armor Group's revenues in each of the years ended December
31, 2002, 2001 and 2000.
Certain sales by the Armor Group to federal agencies are made pursuant
to standard purchasing contracts issued by the General Services Administration
of the Federal Government, commonly referred to as a "GSA Schedule". GSA
Schedule contracts accounted for approximately 16%, 14% and 19%, respectively,
of the Armor Group's sales for the years ended December 31, 2002, 2001 and 2000.
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 expire on July 31, 2006.
With the exception of the U.S. Government, no customer accounted for
10% or more of the Company's revenues in 2002, 2001 and 2000.
MARKETING AND DISTRIBUTION. The Armor Group employs 23 customer support
representatives and 26 sales representatives under the direction of 4 sales
managers. These personnel are responsible for marketing the Armor Group's
products to federal, state, and local law enforcement agencies in the United
States. Sales to such law enforcement agencies are made primarily through
distributorships established by the sales team. 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
fragmentation garments and accessories manufactured and sold by the Armor Group
are not currently the subject of government regulations. However, law
enforcement agencies and the military specify certain standards of performance,
such as NIJ standards for bullet-resistant vests in several categories. In
addition, the NIJ has established a voluntary standard for testing
stab-resistant armor. The Armor Group regularly submits its vests to independent
laboratories for testing under these standards and all of its products have, at
the time of manufacture, met or exceeded such standards in their respective
categories.
COMPETITION. The ballistic-resistant garment business is highly
competitive and fragmented. The number of United States manufacturers is
estimated to be approximately 20. Management is not aware of published reports
concerning the market, and most companies are privately held. Nevertheless, the
Company believes that the Armor Group is the largest manufacturer of
ballistic-resistant garments in the United States.
The Armor Group believes that the principal elements of competition in
the sale of ballistic-resistant garments are innovative design, price and
quality. The Company believes that the Armor Group enjoys a favorable reputation
4
in the industry with over 30 years of supplying federal, state and municipal
governments and agencies.
BACKLOG. As of March 1, 2003, the Armor Group had a backlog of
approximately $57 million. Backlog at any one date is not a reliable indicator
of future sales. In addition to its backlog, from time to time the Armor Group
receives contract awards for municipal orders that may be extended over a period
of time. The actual dollar amount of products to be delivered pursuant to these
and similar contracts cannot be accurately predicted and is generally excluded
from reported backlog.
POTENTIAL PRODUCT LIABILITY. The products manufactured or distributed
by the Armor Group are used as protective devices in situations that could
result in serious injuries or death, including injuries that may result from the
failure of such products. The Armor Group maintains product liability insurance
for PACA and Point Blank in the amount of $21,000,000 each per occurrence, and
$22,000,000 in the aggregate, less a deductible of $100,000 for each company. PB
International maintains product liability insurance in the amount of $2,000,000
for each occurrence, with a $5,000 deductible. 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 Point Blank, PACA and PB
International would be able to obtain such insurance at a reasonable cost. Any
substantial uninsured loss would have to be paid out of the subject subsidiary'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. The
inability to obtain product liability coverage may prohibit Point Blank, PACA or
PB International in the future from bidding for orders from certain governmental
customers. Many governmental agencies currently require such insurance 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.
EMPLOYEES. As of December 31, 2002, the Armor Group employed
approximately 450 full-time employees. There was one officer of the Armor Group,
20 persons employed in supervisory capacities, 365 employed in manufacturing,
shipping and warehousing, 30 in customer service and sales, six
technical/research development personnel, and 28 office personnel. In the
opinion of management, the Armor Group maintains a satisfactory relationship
with its employees.
DHB SPORTS GROUP
PRODUCTS AND MARKETS. DHB 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, health supports 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 NDLTM, GRIDTM, MagneSystemsTM, FLEX-AIDTM, and Doctor Bone SaversTM. 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,
Meijer and Phar Mor. Two customers, Wal-Mart and Target, collectively accounted
5
for 75%, 61% and 54% of the Sports Group's revenues for the years ended December
31, 2002, 2001 and 2000, respectively.
The Sports Group has negotiated 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 PharmacyTM, LeaderTM and Quality Choice BrandsTM of health support
products.
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).
POTENTIAL PRODUCT LIABILITY. The products manufactured or distributed
by the Sports Group are used as protective devices in situations that could
result in serious injuries or death, including injuries that may result from the
failure of such products. The Sports Group maintains product liability insurance
in the amount of $21,000,000 each per occurrence, and $22,000,000 in the
aggregate, less a deductible of $100,000. 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 the Sports Group would be able
to obtain such insurance at a reasonable cost. Any substantial uninsured loss
would have to be paid out of the Sport's Group assets and may have a material
adverse effect on the Company's financial condition and results of operations on
a consolidated basis.
EMPLOYEES. As of December 31, 2002, the Sports Group employed
approximately 45 full-time employees. There was one officer of the Sports Group,
four persons employed in supervisory capacities, 30 employed in manufacturing,
shipping and warehousing, three in sales and customer service, and seven office
personnel. All of the Sports Group's employees are employed full-time. In the
opinion of management, the Sports Group's relationship with its employees is
good. The Sports Group also has more than 50 independent sales representatives
who, together with the sales executives, are responsible for sales throughout
the Untied States, Western Europe, Asia, the Middle East and Latin America. The
Sports Group has in-house sales support and state-of-the-art EDI order and
invoicing capabilities.

AVAILABLE INFORMATION
The Company's internet address/website is www.dhbt.com. As of the date
of this Form 10-K/A, due to a late start in establishing the necessary links and
certain technical difficulties on the website, the Company does not make
available free of charge on its website the Company's reports filed under the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934, although the Company anticipates being able to
do so some time during the second quarter of 2003, such that these reports can
be available promptly after they are filed with the SEC. In the interim, the
Company will voluntarily provide electronic copies (or a reasonable number of
paper copies) of its filings free of charge upon request.
ITEM 2. PROPERTIES
CORPORATE HEADQUARTERS. The Company's corporate headquarters are in a
3,750 square foot leased office located at 555 Westbury Avenue, Carle Place, New
York 11514. The lease expires on December 31, 2004.
7
PACA. The Company leases a 60,060 square foot manufacturing facility
with administrative offices at 179 Mine Lane, Jacksboro, Tennessee 37757, for
its subsidiary, PACA. The lease expires on April 15, 2006.
NDL/POINT BLANK FACILITY. Point Blank 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, LLC
("V.A.E."), a Limited Liability Corporation controlled by Mrs. Terry Brooks,
wife of Mr. David H. Brooks, and beneficially owned by Mr. and Mrs. Brooks'
minor children. NDL Products occupies a portion of the space in the Oakland Park
facility. The lease expires on December 31, 2010. Management believes that the
terms of the lease are no less favorable to the Company than terms that would
have been obtained at the time of the lease from an unrelated third party.
NDL WAREHOUSE. On October 1, 2002, the Company entered into a two-year
lease for a 31,500 square foot warehouse adjacent to the Oakland Park Facility
from an unrelated third party. This warehouse is located at 1201 NE 38th Street,
Oakland Park, Florida.

51,246 square foot manufacturing facility with administrative offices in
Deerfield, Florida, to expand Point Blank's military operations. The lease
expires on April 30, 2008.

POINT BLANK INTERNATIONAL FACILITY. PB International leases a 5,700
square foot office and warehouse facility located at Rue Leon Frederiq, 14, 4020
Liege, Belgium. This space is rented on a month-to-month basis.
ITEM 3. PENDING LITIGATION
The Company has filed a lawsuit in the Supreme Court of the State of
New York, County of Nassau, against its insurance carrier and an insurance
agent, for negligence and breach of fiduciary duties as a result of the damages
the Company incurred during Hurricane Irene in October 1999. The Company is
vigorously pursuing this action. On March 17, 2003, the Company entered into a
settlement agreement with its insurance agent for a $1 million payment to the
Company. The lawsuit against the insurance carrier has been scheduled for trial
in the fall of 2003.
On or about June 21, 2001, American Body Armor and Equipment Inc.
commenced an action against the Company's subsidiary, PACA, in the United States
District Court of the Middle District of Florida. In September 2002, the parties
filed a joint resolution and settlement with American Body Armor, ending this
patent infringement case. This settlement will not have a material adverse
effect on the Company's business, result of operations or financial condition.
On October 1, 2002, a shareholders' derivative action was commenced in
the Supreme Court of the State of New York, County of Nassau, on behalf of the
Company against the directors and officers of the Company and the Company as a
nominal defendant, by Plumbers & Pipefitters Local 112 Pension Fund,
derivatively on behalf of itself and all others similarly situated
("Plaintiff"). This case was dismissed with prejudice on March 13, 2003, without
8
liability to the Company or its officers or directors. The Company is seeking
dismissal of another identical suit brought on behalf of a second shareholder on
the same grounds that required dismissal in the other suit. The Company
maintains $10 million of directors and officers' liability insurance covering
this type of claim.
On or about October 30, 2002, the Company filed a lawsuit in the United
States District Court for the Southern District of Florida against certain union
leaders, claiming defamation, conspiracy to defame and tortuous interference
with contractual and ongoing business relationships. The case is still in its
preliminary stages, and the Company is vigorously pursuing this action.
The Company is involved in other litigation, none of which is
considered by management to be material to the Company's business or, if
adversely determined, would have a material adverse effect on the Company's
financial condition.

that its future earnings will be retained to finance the expansion of its
business. Any determination to pay cash dividends on the Company's common stock
in the future will be at the discretion of the Board of Directors after taking
9
into account various factors, including financial condition, results of
operations, current and anticipated cash needs, and restrictions, if any, under
the Company's credit agreements.
On March 1, 2003 there were 134 holders of record of the Company's
common stock. However, the number of holders of record includes brokers and
other depositories for the accounts of others. The Company estimates that there
are approximately 3,700 beneficial owners of its common stock.
In 2002, the Company issued 8,931,832 unregistered shares of common
stock pursuant to the exercise of warrants, for which the Company received
aggregate proceeds of approximately $6,324,000. The Company also issued 275,000
unregistered common stock purchase warrants to its investor relations firm;
these warrants have an exercise price of $4.95 per share and expire on June 4,
2006. In addition, the Company issued to directors and executive officers a

ITEM 7. 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 Form 10-K.
GENERAL
The Company is a holding company, which currently conducts business
through its wholly-owned subsidiaries organized in two divisions, the DHB Armor
Group and the DHB Sports Group. The Company's products are sold both nationally
and internationally. The Armor Group's sales are directed primarily to law
enforcement agencies and military services. Sales to the U.S. military comprise
the largest portion of the Armor Group's business, followed by sales to federal,
state and local law enforcement agencies, including correctional facilities.
Accordingly, any substantial increase or reduction in governmental spending or
change in emphasis in defense and law enforcement programs could have a material
effect on the Armor Group's business. The Sports Group manufactures and markets
a variety of sports medicine, protective gear, health supports and magnetic
therapy products under its own labels, private labels and house brands for major
retailers.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2002 COMPARED TO YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2001.
Consolidated net sales for the year ended December 31, 2002 increased
33.0% to a record $130.3 million compared to net sales of $98.0 million for the
year ended December 31, 2001. Due to the emphasis on homeland security and
various military actions occurring throughout 2002, the Armor Group's revenue
increased 33.5% to $124.8 million compared to $93.5 million for 2001. The Sports
Group's revenues increased by 22.1% to $5.5 million in 2002 versus $4.5 million
for 2001. Gross profit margin for the year ended December 31, 2002 was 28.9%
compared to 26.9% in 2001, primarily as a result of the increase in revenues as
well as volume purchase discounts which the Company was able to utilize during
2002. Selling, general and administrative expenses as a percentage of sales
increased to 18.3% of 2002 revenues as compared to 13.9% of revenues in 2001.
The selling, general and administrative expenses increased from $13.6 million in
2001 to $23.9 million in 2002, primarily as a result of increased legal fees in
the successful defense of a patent infringement case and legal and professional
fees associated with the union organizing campaign targeting DHB's subsidiary,
11
including the associated security, public relations and legal fees arising out
of the defense of the organizing effort. Also included in selling, general and
administrative expenses for 2002 were a $646,000 non-cash compensation charge
and $255,000 straight-line rent described above. Primarily as a result of the
increased selling, general and administrative expenses, operating margin
decreased from 13.0% in 2001 to 10.6% in 2002.
Interest expense for the year ended December 31, 2002 was $1.6 million,
down nearly $900,000 from the $2.5 million of interest expense for the year
ended December 31, 2001. This decrease is the result of lower interest rates
under the Company's credit facility combined with the repayment of $5.5 million
of shareholder indebtedness and the conversion of $3 million of shareholder
indebtedness into preferred stock. Although the total amount owed under the
credit facility increased, the overall cost of capital decreased during 2002.
The Company has net operating loss (NOL) carryforwards of approximately
$7.4 million available to offset income in future years. The benefit to the
Company is the cash tax payments such NOL carryforwards can offset. Because the
Company has had three solid years of growth and is projecting profitability in
2003, it is more likely than not that the Company can utilize this benefit prior
to its expiration in 2019. Therefore, in 2002, the Company has recognized a
deferred income tax benefit of approximately $3.7 million related to temporary
differences that will result in deductible amounts in future years and the net
operating loss carryforwards. The deferred tax asset is broken down into the
current portion of $3.3 million and the long-term portion of $1.4 million for
temporary timing differences in book to tax income. The income tax expense for
2001 was nominal and was offset by the NOL, so that only state and franchise
taxes were expensed.
Net income was approximately $16.0 million for 2002, which was reduced
by the $345,000 preferred stock dividend paid to bring the income available to
common stockholders to $15.6 million or $0.37 cents per fully diluted share
compared to income of $10.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2001 or
$0.28 per fully diluted share. The fully diluted shares outstanding for the
years ended December 31, 2002 and 2001 were 42,304,254 and 36,775,910,
respectively.
YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2001 COMPARED TO YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2000.
Consolidated net sales for the year ended December 31, 2001 were $98.0
million, a 40.0% increase over the 2000 annual net sales of $70.0 million. This
increase is primarily attributable to increased purchases by the Military and
domestic law enforcement customers. The gross margin decreased from 29.5% to
26.9%, primarily as a result of the plant shutdown and relocation of the PACA
facility during the first quarter of 2001. However, operating margins expanded
to 13.0% of revenues or $12.8 million for the year ended December 31, 2001 as
compared to 11.7% of revenues or $8.2 million for the year ended December 31,
2000. This increase is attributable to the manufacturing operating efficiencies
resulting from higher sales volumes, volume purchasing discounts from our
vendors, and tighter control of expenses.
The Company's selling, general and administrative expenses for the year
ended December 31, 2001 as a percentage of revenues decreased to 13.9% as
compared to 17.8% in 2000.
12
Interest expense for the year 2001 decreased by approximately $230,000
to $2.5 million as a result of lower interest rates under the Company's credit
facility with LaSalle Business Credit. Other income declined by $250,000, as the
2000 figure included gain on the sale of the previous corporate headquarters.
As a result of the foregoing, the Company achieved net income of $10.1
million for the year 2001 as compared to $6.0 million for the year 2000, a 68.7%
increase. Earnings per share for the year ended December 31, 2001 were $0.28 per
share with 36,775,910 fully diluted shares versus $0.18 per share on 34,086,963
fully diluted shares for 2000.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
The Company's primary capital requirements over the next twelve months
are to assist its subsidiaries in financing their working capital requirements.
Its operating subsidiaries sell the majority of their products on 60 to 90-day
terms. Working capital is needed to finance the receivables, manufacturing
process and inventory. Working capital at December 31, 2002 was approximately
$53.1 million as compared to working capital of approximately $20.5 at December
31, 2001. This increase in working capital reflects primarily an $11.9 million
increase in accounts receivable, an $8.8 million increase in inventory and a
$7.9 million decrease in accounts payable. These changes caused the Company to
use approximately $15.5 million in its cash flow from operations.
On September 24, 2001, the Company entered into a Loan and Security
Agreement (the "Credit Agreement"), as amended on June 28, 2002 and February 25,
2003, which expires on September 24, 2004. Pursuant to the Credit Agreement, the
Company may borrow up to the lesser of (i) $35 million during the period
commencing on February 18, 2003 and ending on August 31, 2003, $30 million
during the period commencing on September 1, 2003 and ending on November 30,
2003, and $25 million at all times on and after December 1, 2003, or (ii) 85% of
eligible accounts receivable plus the lesser of $14 million or certain
percentages of eligible inventory, as defined. Interest is either at the prime
rate or LIBOR plus 2.50%. A portion of these funds was used to partially
refinance higher interest debt. The remaining funds have been and will be used
to meet increased demands for capital generated during a period of rapid growth,
which has accelerated in response our growing markets.
The Company's capital expenditures in 2002 decreased to $367,000, as
compared to approximately $554,000 during 2001. The Company anticipates
increasing its capital expenditures in 2003 to help further the growth of the
Company. This increase should not have a material impact on the financial
statements.
The Company believes that its existing credit line, together with funds
generated from operations, will be adequate to sustain its operations through
2003.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The Company's management believes that its critical accounting polices
include:
REVENUE RECOGNITION - DHB recognizes revenue when it is realized or
realizable and has been earned. Product revenue is recognized when persuasive
evidence of an arrangement exists, the product has been delivered and legal
title and all risks of ownership have been transferred, written contract and
sales terms are complete, customer acceptance has occurred and payment is
reasonably assured. Returns are minimal and do not materially affect the
consolidated financial statements.
ESTIMATES - The preparation of financial statements in conformity with
accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America
requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported
amounts of assets, liabilities and contingent assets and liabilities in the
financial statements and accompanying notes. Significant estimates inherent in
the preparation of the accompanying consolidated financial statements include
the carrying value of long-lived assets and allowances for receivables and
inventories. Actual results could differ from these estimates.
INCOME TAXES - DHB uses the asset and liability approach to account for
income taxes. Under this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are
recognized for the expected future tax consequences of differences between the
carrying amounts of assets and liabilities and their respective tax basis using
enacted tax rates in effect for the year in which the differences are expected
to reverse. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax
rates is recognized in income in the period when the change is enacted. Deferred
tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance when, in the opinion of
management, it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred
tax assets will not be realized.
OTHER INVESTMENT - DHB has a cost-based investment in a non-publicly traded
company. A decline in the value of this cost-based investment below cost that is
deemed other than temporary is charged to earnings, resulting in a new cost
basis for the investment.
NEW ACCOUNTING STANDARDS
In June 2001, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued SFAS
No. 143, "Accounting for Asset Retirement Obligations." This standard addresses
financial accounting and reporting for obligations associated with the
retirement of tangible long-lived assets and the associated asset retirement
costs. DHB is required to implement SFAS No. 143 on January 1, 2003. DHB does
not expect this standard to have a material impact on its consolidated financial
position or results of operations.
In June 2002, the FASB issued SFAS No. 146, "Accounting for Costs
Associated with Exit or Disposal Activities." This standard nullifies Emerging
Issues Task Force Issue No. 94-3, "Liability Recognition for Certain Employee
Termination Benefits and Other Costs to exit an Activity (including Certain
Costs Incurred in a Restructuring)." This standard requires that a liability for
a cost associated with an exit or disposal activity be recognized when the
liability is incurred rather than the date of an entity's commitment to an exit
plan. DHB is required to implement SFAS No. 146 on January 1, 2003.
15
DHB does not expect this standard to have a material impact on its consolidated
financial position or results of operations.
In November 2002, the FASB issued Interpretation No. 45, "Guarantor's
Accounting and Disclosure Requirements for Guarantees, including Indirect
Guarantees of Indebtedness of Others," which expands previously issued
accounting guidance and disclosure requirements for certain guarantees. The
interpretation requires an entity to recognize an initial liability for the fair
value of an obligation assumed by issuing a guarantee. The provision for initial
recognition and measurement of the liability will be applied on a prospective
basis to guarantees issued or modified after December 31, 2002. DHB does not
expect this interpretation to have a material impact on its consolidated
financial position or results of operations.
In December 2002, the FASB issued SFAS No. 148, "Accounting for Stock-Based
Compensation - Transition and Disclosure- an amendment of FASB Statement No.
123," which provides optional transition guidance for those companies electing
to voluntarily adopt the accounting provisions of SFAS No. 123. In addition,
SFAS No. 148 amends the disclosure requirements of SFAS 123 to require prominent
disclosures in both annual and interim financial statements about the method of
accounting for stock-based employee compensation and the effect of the method
used on reported results. The Company does not plan to change its method of
accounting for stock-based employee compensation. The Company will make the
required interim disclosures effective with the quarter ending March 31, 2003.
In January 2003, the FASB issued Interpretation No. 46, "Consolidation of
Variable Interest Entities, an Interpretation of ARB No. 51," which requires all
variable interest entities ("VIEs") to be consolidated by the primary
beneficiary. The primary beneficiary is the entity that holds the majority of
the beneficial interest in the VIE. In addition, the interpretation expands
disclosure requirements for both variable interest entities that are
consolidated as well as VIEs from which the entity is the holder of a
significant amount of the beneficial interests, but not the majority. The
disclosure requirements of this interpretation are effective for all financial
statements issued after January 31, 2003. The consolidation requirements of this
interpretation are effective for all periods beginning after June 15, 2003. DHB
does not expect this interpretation to have a material impact on its
consolidated financial position or results of operations.
SPECIAL NOTE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
This Annual Report contains certain forward-looking statements and
information relating to the Company that is based on the beliefs of the
Company's management, as well as assumptions made by and information currently
available to the Company's management. When used in this document, the words
"anticipate," "believe," "estimate," "expect," "going forward," and similar
expressions, as they relate to the Company or Company management, are intended
to identify forward-looking statements. Such statements reflect the current
views of the Company with respect to future events and are subject to certain
risks, uncertainties and assumptions, including, but not limited to: general
business and economic conditions, the maintenance of the Company's military
supply contacts, the level of governmental expenditures on law enforcement
equipment, continued supplies of materials from critical vendors, and the
continued availability of insurance for the Company's products. Should one or
more of these risks or uncertainties materialize, or should the underlying
assumptions prove incorrect, actual results may vary materially from those
described herein as anticipated, believed, estimated or expected. Readers are
cautioned not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements that
speak only as of the date hereof. The Company undertakes no obligation to
publish revised forward-looking statements to reflect the occurrence of
unanticipated events or circumstances after the date hereof.
ITEM 7A. QUALITATIVE AND QUANTITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISKS
The Company does not issue or invest in financial instruments or their
derivatives for trading or speculative purposes. The Company's market risk is
limited to fluctuations in interest rates as it pertains to its borrowings under
its $35 million credit facility. The Company can borrow at either the prime rate
of interest or LIBOR plus 2.50%. Any increase in these reference rates could
adversely affect the Company's interest expense. The Company does not have any
material sales, purchases, assets or liabilities denominated in currencies other
than the U.S. Dollar, and as such, is not subject to material foreign currency
exchange rate risk.

STOCK WARRANTS. During 2002, each of the five then-current board
members were awarded 25,000 warrants exercisable at $7.11 per share for five
years for serving as board members. Mrs. Hatfield was awarded 25,000 warrants
exercisable at $7.11 per share for being Chief Operating Officer. The Company
also issued 275,000 warrants to an independent consulting firm to handle the
Company's investor relations; these warrants expire on June 4, 2006 and have an
exercise price of $4.95 per share. The value of these warrants of approximately
$646,000 is included in selling, general and administrative expenses for the
year ended December 31, 2002. This non-cash payment increased the Company's
additional paid-in capital. During 2002, 150,000 warrants were issued and
cancelled. During the year ended December 31, 2002, no additional stock options,
warrants or similar securities, rights or interests were granted to any of the
executive officers of the Company listed in the Summary Compensation Table
above. Mr. Brooks and Mrs. Brooks exercised warrants during 2002 for 5,593,751
shares. Morton Cohen (a former Director) exercised warrants during 2002 for
121,415 shares. No other options, warrants or similar securities, rights or
interests were exercised by any Directors or any such executive officers in
2002.
Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 requires the
Company's directors and executive officers, and persons who own more than 10% of
a registered class of the Company's equity securities, to file with the
Securities and Exchange Commission initial reports of ownership and reports of
changes of ownership of Common Stock and other equity securities of the Company.
To the Company's knowledge, based solely on review of the copies of such reports
furnished to the Company and written representations that no other reports were
required during the year ended December 31, 2002, all Section 16(a) filing
requirements applicable to its officers, directors and greater-than-10%
beneficial owners were complied with.

director grants) and the named officers' stock option activity during 2002.

COMPENSATION COMMITTEE REPORT
The compensation of the Company's executive officers is generally
determined by either the Board of Directors or the Compensation Committee of the
Board of Directors, subject to approval by the Board of Directors, and subject
to applicable employment agreements. See "Executive Compensation." Each member
of the Compensation Committee is a director who is not an employee of the
Company or any of its affiliates.
GENERAL POLICIES
The Company's compensation programs are intended to enable the Company
to attract, motivate, reward and retain the management talent required to
achieve its corporate objectives, and thereby increase shareholder value. It is
the Company's policy to provide incentives to its senior management to achieve
both short-term and long-term objectives and to reward exceptional performance
and contributions to the development of the Company's businesses. To attain
these objectives, the Company's executive compensation program includes a
competitive base salary and stock-based compensation.
Stock warrants are granted to employees, including the Company's
executive officers, by the Board or the Compensation Committee. The Compensation
Committee believes that stock warrants provide an incentive that focuses the
executive's attention on managing the Company from the perspective of an owner
with an equity stake in the business. Incentive stock warrants are awarded with
an exercise price equal to the market value of Common Stock on the date of
grant, and all such warrants have a maximum term of ten years and generally
become exercisable not less than six months from the date of grant. Among the
Company's executive officers, the number of shares subject to warrants granted
to each individual generally depends upon the level of that officer's
responsibility. Previous grants of stock warrants are reviewed but are not
considered the most important factor in determining the size of any executive's
stock option award in a particular year.
21
RELATIONSHIP OF COMPENSATION TO PERFORMANCE The Compensation Committee annually
establishes, subject to the approval of the Board of Directors and any
applicable employment agreements, the salaries that will be paid to the
Company's executive officers during the coming year. In setting salaries, the
Compensation Committee takes into account several factors, including competitive
compensation data, the extent to which an individual may participate in the
stock plans maintained by the Company, and qualitative factors bearing on an
individual's experience, responsibilities, management and leadership abilities,
and job performance.
COMPENSATION OF CHIEF EXECUTIVE OFFICER For fiscal 2002, pursuant to the terms
of his employment agreement with the Company, David H. Brooks received a base
salary of $575,000. See "Executive Compensation - Employment Agreements." In
light of this employment agreement, the Compensation Committee was not required
to make any decision regarding the cash compensation of Mr. Brooks. Mr. Brooks
also received warrants to purchase 25,000 shares of common stock at $7.11 per
share (as did each of the other then-current Directors of the Company).

As of December 31, 2002, the Company maintained a single equity
compensation plan (its 1995 Stock Option Plan), which had previously
been approved by the Company's security holders, and under which the
Company is authorized to issue options for up to 3,500,000 shares of
common stock. As of December 31, 2002 and the date of this Form 10-K,
there were no options outstanding under such plan, and 3,500,000 common
stock options remain available for issuance under the plan.
ITEM 13. CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS
The Company has funded certain of its acquisitions and operations
through the use of term loans from Mr. David H. Brooks, Chairman of the Board of
the Company, and Mrs. Terry Brooks, his wife. On January 14, 2002, David H.
Brooks, the principal stockholder of the Company, exchanged $3 million of the
approximately $10 million of indebtedness due him for 500,000 Shares of the
newly authorized Series A, 12% Convertible Preferred Stock (the "Preferred
Stock"). The Preferred Stock has a dividend rate of $0.72 per share per annum,
an amount equal to the interest that would have been payable on the exchanged
indebtedness. Shares of the Preferred Stock are convertible, on a one-to-one
basis, at the option of the holder, into shares of common stock. The shares of
Preferred Stock are redeemable at the option of the Company on December 15 of
each year. During 2002, the Company repaid $5.5 million of principal
indebtedness owed to Mr. Brooks, bringing the total indebtedness owed by the
Company to Mr. Brooks as of December 31, 2002 to $1.5 million. These shareholder
loans mature in November 2004 and bear interest at 12% per annum.
Point Blank 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. Enterprise LLC ("V.A.E."), a Limited
Liability Corporation controlled by Terry Brooks, wife of Mr. David H. Brooks,
and beneficially owned by Mr. and Mrs. Brooks' minor children. Total base rental
under this lease was $643,000 in 2002, and the lease expires on December 31,
2010. Management performed a comparison of market rates at the time the lease
was entered into, and believes that the terms of the lease were at the current
market price that would then have been obtained from an unrelated party.
The Company has been purchasing certain products, which are components
of ballistic resistant apparel manufactured and sold by the Company from
Tactical Armor Products, Inc. ("TAP"), a company owned by Terry Brooks, the wife
of Mr. David H. Brooks. The total of such purchases during the years ended
December 31, 2002, 2001, and 2000 were approximately $7,975,000, $2,760,000 and
$477,000 respectively. The unit prices charged by TAP have been less than the
prices charged to the Company by its previous outside suppliers, and TAP's
products are available on demand. To facilitate the delivery and integration of
these components, beginning in May 2001, the Company permitted TAP to
manufacture these components in a portion of the Company's manufacturing
facility in Jacksboro, Tennessee, for which TAP paid to the Company occupancy
charges of approximately $39,600 and $26,400 for the years ended December 31,
2002 and 2001, respectively. (The rent paid by TAP is an estimated allocable
portion of the Company's total rent for the entire facility.) Terry Brooks also
owned another company, US Manufacturing Corporation, that received revenues of
$43,355 from the Company in 2002 for stitching work but has since been merged
into TAP. TAP is an approved subcontractor under the applicable contracts
between the Company and the United States federal government.
ITEM 14. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
Within the 90 days prior to the date of the filing of this report, the
Company carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the
participation of the Company's management, including the Company's Chief
Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the
design and operation of the Company's disclosure controls and procedures as
defined in Rules 13a-14 and 15d-14 of the Exchange Act. Based upon that
evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded
that, subject to the inherent limitations described below, the Company's
disclosure controls and procedures are effective in timely alerting them to
material information relating to the Company (including its consolidated
subsidiaries) required to be included in the Company's periodic Securities and
Exchange Commission filings. No significant changes were made in the Company's
internal controls or in other factors that could significantly affect these
internal controls subsequent to the completion of the evaluation.
Disclosure controls and procedures are those controls and other
procedures that are designed with the objective of ensuring that information
required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports that it files or submits
under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within
24
the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission's rules and
forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls
and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by
the Company in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is
accumulated and communicated to the Company's management, including the
Company's principal executive officer and principal financial officer, as
appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
The Company's management, including the Chief Executive Officer and
Chief Financial Officer, does not expect that the Company's disclosure controls
will prevent all errors and uncover all fraud. A control system, no matter how
well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute,
assurance that the objectives of the control system are met. Further, the design
of a control system necessarily reflects the fact that there are resource
constraints, and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their
costs. Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation
of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances
of fraud, if any, within a company have been detected. These inherent
limitations include the realities that judgments in decision-making can be
faulty, and that breakdowns can occur because of simple error or mistake.
Additionally, controls can be circumvented by the individual acts of some
persons, by collusion or two or more people, or by management override of the
control. The design of any system of controls is also based in part upon certain
assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance
that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential
future conditions; over time, controls may become inadequate because of changes
in conditions, or the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may
deteriorate.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT CERTIFIED PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS
The Board of Directors and
Stockholders of DHB Industries, Inc.
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheet of DHB Industries,
Inc. and Subsidiaries (the "Company") as of December 31, 2002 and the related
consolidated statements of operations, stockholders' equity (deficit) and
comprehensive income, and cash flows for the year then ended. These financial
statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our
responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial
statements based on our audit.
We conducted our audit in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted
in the United States of America. Those standards require that we plan and
perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial
statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a
test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial
statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and
significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall
consolidated financial statement presentation. We believe that our audit
provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present
fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of DHB
Industries, Inc. and Subsidiaries as of December 31, 2002 and the consolidated
results of its operations and consolidated cash flows for the year then ended,
in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States
of America.
We have also audited the financial statement schedule listed in the Index at
Item 15(a)(2) for the year ended December 31, 2002. In our opinion, this
schedule presents fairly, in all material respects, the information required to
be set forth therein.
On February 14, 2003 (except for Note 6, as to which the date is February 25,
2003 and Note 13, as to which the date is March 17, 2003), we originally
reported on the consolidated financial statements referred to above. This report
was issued prior to the discovery of the matters set forth in Note 10 and Note
13-Leases, to the consolidated financial statements, wherein revisions of
disclosures in connection with certain other related party transactions existing
as of December 31, 2002, and for the year then ended are described.

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT
The Board of Directors of
DHB Industries, Inc.
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheet of DHB Industries,
Inc. and Subsidiaries as of December 31, 2001 and the related consolidated
statements of operations, stockholders' equity (deficit) and other comprehensive
income and cash flows for each of the two years in the period ended December 31,
2001. Our audits also included the financial statement schedule. These
consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's
management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated
financial statements based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted
in the United States of America. Those standards require that we plan and
perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated
financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes
examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in
the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting
principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as
evaluating the overall consolidated financial statement presentation. We believe
that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present
fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of DHB
Industries, Inc. and Subsidiaries as of December 31, 2001 and the consolidated
results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the two years in the
period ended December 31, 2001 in conformity with accounting principles
generally accepted in the United States of America. Also, in our opinion, such
financial statement schedule, when considered in relation to the basic
consolidated financial statements taken as a whole, presents fairly in all
material respects the information set forth therein.
On March 5, 2002 we originally reported on the consolidated financial statements
referred to above. This report was issued prior to the discovery of the matters
set forth in Note 10 and Note 13-Leases, to the consolidated financial
statements, wherein revisions of disclosures in connection with certain other
related party transactions existing as of December 31, 2002, and for the year
then ended are described.

DHB INDUSTRIES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(In thousands, except share and per share data)
Note 1 BACKGROUND AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Principles of consolidation
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of
DHB Industries, Inc. and its subsidiaries ("DHB" or the "Company"), all
of which are wholly owned. DHB has two major divisions, DHB Armor Group
and DHB Sports Group. All intercompany balances and transaction have
been eliminated in consolidation.
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 for United States
armed forces, federal agencies and state and local law enforcement
communities. DHB Sports Group produces and markets a comprehensive line
of athletic supports and braces which are merchandised through national
superstore chains. DHB maintains manufacturing facilities in Deerfield
Beach, FL, Oakland Park, FL, and Jacksboro, TN.
Use of estimates in the preparation of financial statements
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with
accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of
America, 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
DHB recognizes revenue when it is realized or realizable and
has been earned. Product revenue is recognized when persuasive evidence
of an arrangement exists, the product has been delivered and legal
title and all risks of ownership have been transferred, written
contract and sales terms are complete, customer acceptance has occurred
and payment is reasonably assured. Returns are minimal and do not
materially affect the consolidated financial statements.
Inventories
Inventories are stated at the lower of cost (determined on the
first-in, first-out basis) or market.
Property and equipment
Property and equipment are recorded at cost less accumulated
depreciation. Major additions, improvements, and renewals, which
substantially increase the useful lives of assets, are capitalized.
Maintenance, repairs, and minor renewals are expensed as incurred.
Depreciation is calculated primarily on the straight-line basis over
the estimated lives of the assets. Leasehold improvements are amortized
over the shorter of the estimated life or the lease term of the related
asset.

Note 1 BACKGROUND AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES - Continued
Cash and cash equivalents
All short-term, highly liquid investments with original
maturities of ninety days or less are considered cash equivalents.
Marketable Securities
Investments in marketable securities were accounted for in
accordance with the provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting
Standards (SFAS) No. 115, "Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt
and Equity Securities". DHB classified all its marketable securities as
held for investment and, accordingly, unrealized gains and losses were
reflected as a component of other comprehensive income (loss) in the
statement of stockholders' equity (deficit) and comprehensive income.
During the year ended December 31, 2001, the Company liquidated its
investments in marketable securities.
Other investment
DHB has a cost-based investment in a non-publicly traded
company. The investment is included in "Other investment" in the
accompanying balance sheet and is carried at cost. A decline in the
value of this cost-based investment below cost that is deemed other
than temporary is charged to earnings, resulting in a new cost basis
for the investment.
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.
Income taxes
DHB and its domestic subsidiaries file a consolidated Federal
income tax return and separate state income tax returns.
DHB uses the asset and liability approach to account for
income taxes. Under this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities
are recognized for the expected future tax consequences of differences
between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities and their
respective tax basis using enacted tax rates in effect for the year in
which the differences are expected to reverse. The effect on deferred
tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in
income in the period when the change is enacted. Deferred tax assets
are reduced by a valuation allowance when, in the opinion of
management, it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the
deferred tax assets will not be realized.
Research and development expenses
Research and development expenses are included in selling,
general and administrative expenses as incurred and for the years ended
December 31, 2002, 2001 and 2000 was $4,221, $2,327 and $1,317,
respectively.

Note 1 BACKGROUND AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES-Continued
Advertising expenses
The cost of advertising is expensed as incurred. The Company
incurred approximately $950, $742 and $728 of advertising costs during
the years ended December 31, 2002, 2001 and 2000, respectively.
Earnings per share
Basic earnings per share is computed by dividing net income by
the weighted average number of common shares outstanding. Diluted
earnings per share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted
average number of common shares outstanding compounding the effects of
all potentially dilutive common stock equivalents, principally
warrants, using the treasury stock method except in cases where the
effect would be anti-dilutive.
Comprehensive income and foreign currency translation
Comprehensive income consists of net income and other
comprehensive income. Other comprehensive income includes foreign
currency translation adjustments, which are a component of accumulated
other comprehensive income (loss) in stockholders' equity.
Stock based compensation
The Company accounts for stock-based compensation using the
intrinsic value method in accordance with Accounting Principles Board
Opinion No. 25, "Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees" and related
Interpretations ("APB No. 25") and has adopted the disclosure
provisions of SFAS No. 148, "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation -
Transition and Disclosure, an amendment of FASB Statement No. 123"
(SFAS No. 148'). Under APB No. 25, when the exercise price of the
Company's employee stock warrants equals the market price of the
underlying stock on the date of grant, no compensation expense is
recognized. Accordingly, no compensation expense has been recognized in
the consolidated financial statement in connection with employee stock
warrant grants.
Impairment of long-lived assets
DHB reviews the recoverability of its long-lived assets when
events or changes in circumstances occur that indicate that the
carrying value of the asset or asset group may not be recoverable. The
assessment of possible impairment is based on DHB's ability to recover
the carrying value of the asset or asset group from the expected
pre-tax cash flows (undiscounted and without interest charges) of the
related operations. If these cash flows are less than the carrying
value of such asset, an impairment loss is recognized for the
difference between estimated fair value and carrying value. The
measurement of impairment requires management to estimate future cash
flows and the fair value of long-lived assets.
Reclassification
Certain prior year balances have been reclassified to conform
with current year presentation.

Note 1 BACKGROUND AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES-Continued
New Accounting Standards
In June 2001, the Financial Accounting Standards Board
("FASB") issued SFAS No. 143, "Accounting for Asset Retirement
Obligations." This standard addresses financial accounting and
reporting for obligations associated with the retirement of tangible
long-lived assets and the associated asset retirement costs. DHB is
required to implement SFAS No. 143 on January 1, 2003. DHB does not
expect this standard to have a material impact on its consolidated
financial position or results of operations.
In June 2002, the FASB issued SFAS No. 146, "Accounting for
Costs Associated with Exit or Disposal Activities." This standard
nullifies Emerging Issues Task Force Issue No. 94-3, "Liability
Recognition for Certain Employee Termination Benefits and Other Costs
to exit an Activity (including Certain Costs Incurred in a
Restructuring)." This standard requires that a liability for a cost
associated with an exit or disposal activity be recognized when the
liability is incurred rather than the date of an entity's commitment to
an exit plan. DHB is required to implement SFAS No. 146 on January 1,
2003. DHB does not expect this standard to have a material impact on
its consolidated financial position or results of operations.
In November 2002, the FASB issued Interpretation No. 45,
"Guarantor's Accounting and Disclosure Requirements for Guarantees,
including Indirect Guarantees of Indebtedness of Others," which expands
previously issued accounting guidance and disclosure requirements for
certain guarantees. The interpretation requires an entity to recognize
an initial liability for the fair value of an obligation assumed by
issuing a guarantee. The provision for initial recognition and
measurement of the liability will be applied on a prospective basis to
guarantees issued or modified after December 31, 2002. DHB does not
expect this interpretation to have a material impact on its
consolidated financial position or results of operations.
In December 2002, the FASB issued SFAS No. 148, "Accounting
for Stock-Based Compensation - Transition and Disclosure- an amendment
of FASB Statement No. 123," which provides optional transition guidance
for those companies electing to voluntarily adopt the accounting
provisions of SFAS No. 123. In addition, SFAS No. 148 amends the
disclosure requirements of SFAS 123 to require prominent disclosures in
both annual and interim financial statements about the method of
accounting for stock-based employee compensation and the effect of the
method used on reported results. The Company does not plan to change
its method of accounting for stock-based employee compensation. The
Company will make the required interim disclosures effective with the
quarter ending March 31, 2003.
In January 2003, the FASB issued Interpretation No. 46,
"Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities, an Interpretation of ARB
No. 51," which requires all variable interest entities ("VIEs") to be
consolidated by the primary beneficiary. The primary beneficiary is the
entity that holds the majority of the beneficial interest in the VIE.
In addition, the interpretation expands disclosure requirements for
both variable interest entities that are consolidated as well as VIEs
from which the entity is the holder of a significant amount of the
beneficial interests, but not the majority. The disclosure requirements
of this interpretation are effective for all financial statements
issued after January 31, 2003. The consolidation requirements of this
interpretation are effective for all periods beginning after June 15,
2003. DHB does not expect this interpretation to have a material impact
on its consolidated financial position or results of operations.

borrowings under the Credit Agreement are collateralized by a first
security interest in substantially all of the assets of the Company. In
addition, the Credit Agreement includes both negative and affirmative
covenants customary for a credit facility of this nature. The Credit
Agreement, among other things, requires the Company to maintain a
minimum (i) tangible net worth, as defined, (ii) fixed charge coverage
ratio, and (iii) earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and

On June 4, 2002, the Company issued 275,000 warrants to its
investor relations firm with an exercise price of $4.95 per share. This
warrant expires June 4, 2006. The fair value of this warrant was
determined to be approximately $646,000 which is included in selling,
general and administrative expenses for the year ended December 31,
2002. The Black-Scholes warrant pricing model used for this warrant had
the following assumptions: Risk-free interest rate of 4.67%, expected
volatility of common stock of 59.83% and a 4 year option term.
During the year ended December 31, 2002 the CEO/Chairman and
his wife exercised warrants totaling 5,593,751 shares.
During 2001, the four members of the Board of Directors were
each awarded 25,000 warrants exercisable at $2.00 per share for five
years. Also during 2001, the Board of Directors awarded key employees
400,000 warrants exercisable at $2.00 per share, which expire in
January 2006.

The per share weighted average fair value of stock warrants
granted during the year ended December 31, 2002 was $5.1625. The fair
value of these warrants was determined at the date of grant using the
Black-Scholes warrant pricing model with the following assumptions:
The Black-Scholes option valuation model was developed for use
in estimating the fair value of traded options, which have no vesting
restrictions and are fully transferable. In addition, option valuation
models require the input of highly subjective assumptions including the
expected stock price volatility. Because the Company's employee stock
warrants have characteristics significantly different from those of
traded warrants and because changes in the subjective input assumptions
can materially affect the fair value estimate, in management's opinion,
the existing models do not necessarily provide a reliable single
measure of the fair value of its employee stock warrants.

Note 10 RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
A summary of related party transactions for the years ended
December 31, 2002, 2001 and 2000 is as follows:
2002 2001 2000
____ ____ ____
Interest, dividends, rental, professional
and other expenses paid or accrued to DHB's
majority stockholder $2,116 $2,962 $3,529
The Company leases an office and manufacturing facility from a
limited liability corporation indirectly owned by the majority
stockholder of DHB pursuant to a lease expiring December 31, 2010 with
annual rental approximately $643 and $607 during the years ended
December 31, 2002 and 2001, respectively, with 6% annual increases
thereafter. The Company, recorded $350 non-cash charge during the year
ended December 31, 2002 related to straight-lining rent.
The Company has been purchasing certain products, which are
components of ballistic resistant apparel manufactured and sold by the
Company from a corporation owned by the wife of DHB's majority
stockholder. The total of such purchases during the years ended
December 31, 2002, 2001, and 2000 were approximately $7,975, $2,760 and
$477, respectively. The Company also sells certain components to this
entity, which are used in manufacturing the products that the Company
purchases from this entity. In addition, this entity sub-leases a
portion of the Tennessee facility, for which the Company received
approximately $40 and $26 during the years ended December 31, 2002 and
2001, respectively. The Company was owed $580 by this entity at
December 31, 2002, which is included in accounts receivable in the
accompanying consolidated balance sheets. The Company owed $1,665 and
$208 to this entity at December 31, 2002 and 2001, respectively, for
purchases made, which is included in accounts payable in the
accompanying consolidated balance sheets. DHB's majority stockholder's
wife also owned another company that received revenues of $43 from the
Company during the year ended December 31, 2002 for stitching work but
has since been merged into the other entity.
The Company has indebtedness to the principal shareholder as
described in Note 5.
Note 11 CONCENTRATION OF CREDIT RISK
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 76%, 75% and 64% for the years ended December
31, 2002, 2001 and 2000, respectively, of DHB's sales were made to the
United States Government or its agencies.

Note 11 CONCENTRATION OF CREDIT RISK - Continued
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 or manufacturing companies. 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 tests would
need 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 12 SEGMENT INFORMATION
As described in Note 1, the Company operates in two principal
segments: ballistic-resistant equipment and protective athletic/sports
products. The Company disposed of the Electronics Group in March 2000,
and closed its hard armor company, LAP, in October 1999. These two
divestitures were accounted for as discontinued operations. Financial
information on the Company's business segments was as follows:

Note 13 COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
Leases
The Company has non-cancelable operating leases, which expire
through 2010. These leases generally require the Company to pay certain
costs, such as real estate taxes. As further described in Note 10, the
Company leases an office and manufacturing facility from a limited
liability corporation indirectly owned by a related party. In addition,
the Company subleases a portion of one of its facilities to an entity
owned by a related party as described in Note 10. Pursuant to such
sublease, which expires on December 31, 2003, the Company will receive
sublease income of approximately $40 for the year ending December 31,
2003.
In January 2003, the Company entered into a lease for an
additional facility for the purpose of expanding its operations. This
lease expires on April 30, 2008.
Future minimum lease commitments (excluding renewal options)
under non-cancelable leases are approximately:

Litigation
The Company has filed a lawsuit against its insurance carrier
and an insurance agent for negligence and breach of fiduciary duties as
a result of the damages incurred during Hurricane Irene in October
1999. On March 17, 2003 the Company entered into a settlement agreement
with its insurance agent for a $1,000 payment to the Company. The
lawsuit against the insurance carrier has been scheduled for trial in
the fall of 2003.
In June 2001, the Company was served with a lawsuit regarding
patent infringement. In September 2002, the parties filed a joint
resolution and settlement ending this patent infringement case. This
settlement will not have a material adverse effect on the Company's
business, results of operations or financial condition.
In October 2002, the Company was served with a derivative
shareholder suit against the Company's officers and directors as well
as the Company itself. This case was dismissed with prejudice on March
13, 2003, without liability to the Company or its officers or
directors. The Company is seeking dismissal of another identical suit
brought on behalf of a second shareholder, on the same grounds that
required dismissal in the other suit.
On or about October 30, 2002, the Company filed a lawsuit
against certain union leaders in the United States District Court for
the Southern District of Florida, claiming defamation, conspiracy to
defame and tortuous interference with contractual and ongoing business
relationships. The Company is vigorously pursuing this action.
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.

indications that certain concerns that had previously limited management's
expectations about future taxable income no longer were applicable.

other employees who have a significant role in the registrant's
internal controls; and
6. The registrant's other certifying officers and I have indicated in this
annual report whether or not there were significant changes in internal controls
or in other factors that could significantly affect internal controls subsequent
