3. LINE OF CREDIT

Restated Credit Agreement and Revolving Line of Credit (the "Amended Agreement")
which included principal of $4,000,000 from a previous agreement, $750,000 from
Demand Notes, accrued interest and management fees of $543,297 on the Agreement
and Demand Notes, and a new credit line commitment of $2,200,000. Under the
terms of the Amended Agreement, the principal of $7,493,297 was due on December
31, 1998, and interest was payable quarterly at an annual rate of 11.5%. From
March 1998 to November 1998, the Company issued Demand notes totaling $930,000
at an interest rate of 11.5% under the credit line agreement.
In December of 1998, the Company amended the credit line agreement to extend the
terms to January 31, 2000. The Company further extended the credit line
agreement to June 30, 2000 in a December 31, 1999 amendment. In fiscal 1999, the
Company issued demand notes totaling $3,510,000 under the line of credit
agreement and capitalized debt issuance costs of $18,000. Of the notes issued in
fiscal 1999, $2,010,000 of notes bear interest at a rate of 11.5% annually; the
remaining $1,500,000 of demand notes bear interest at a rate of prime plus 3%
(11.5% at November 30, 1999).
For the first three months of fiscal 2000, the Company issued demand notes
totaling $450,000 at an interest rate of prime plus 3% (11.75% at February 29,

5. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
BREAST IMPLANT LITIGATION
During the first three months of 2000, there have been no significant
developments in the Breast Implant Litigation. For information regarding legal
proceedings, refer to the information contained in the Company's Annual Report
on Form 10-KSB for the fiscal year ended November 30, 1999, under Note 5 to the
financial statements included therein.
ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OR PLAN OF OPERATION.
Overview
During the first three months of fiscal 2000, the Company focused its efforts on
ramping up sales of the Company's DuraCLEAN polyurethane gloves in both the US
and international markets. Sales of the Company's contamination control products
increased 16% from the first quarter of fiscal 1999, due to product improvement
projects and expansion of the Company's sales organization during the fiscal
year 1999.
On February 7, 2000, the Company (the "Seller") signed a non-binding Letter of
Intent with Foamex Asia Co. Ltd. (the "Buyer"), an affiliate of Foamex
International (FMXI: NASDAQ), for the sale of certain assets and selected
liabilities of the Company's Wilshire Contamination Control Division (the
"Division).
The transaction is subject to the execution of a definitive agreement, which the
Company anticipates will contain other closing conditions and requirements to
satisfactorily complete the transfer of assets.
The final purchase price for the assets will be based upon a percentage of
Foamex future sales of contamination control products over a multi-year
contractual period. Management is unable to anticipate or predict with accuracy
the total purchase price to be paid for the assets.
In addition to the sale of assets, the Buyer and Seller intend to negotiate an
agreement for post-closing joint sales and marketing efforts and sharing of
certain technology, equipment and personnel during the contractual period.
Since no cash is due at closing, the Company will record the sale of the assets
as a receivable (based upon the net book value of the assets transferred). All
payments of purchase price will be applied against the receivable, with no
recognition of gain, until the receivable is extinguished.

8
Foamex International is an international developer, manufacturer and supplier
of high-quality foam, including key materials utilized in Contamination Control
environments. Foamex Asia Co. Ltd., located in Singapore and in Thailand, is
currently a major supplier of specialty foam products to the Asian market.
Steve Scibelli, President of Foamex Asia Co. Ltd., served as Chief Executive
Officer of Wilshire Technologies from 1994 until 1996. Mr. Scibelli currently
owns 96,073 shares of Company stock and holds an option to purchase 200,000
shares of Company stock, at a purchase price of $0.625 per share, until April
17, 2000 when the options expire. In addition, the Company is contingently
obligated to pay certain other benefits to Mr. Scibelli.
The Company believes that the proposed transactions are in its best interests
because of the likelihood of increased gross profit from the contamination
control business over the next three years, coupled with the ability to better
focus its efforts on the polyurethane glove business during that period.
From time to time the Company may report, through its press releases and/or
Securities and Exchange Commission filings, certain forward-looking statements
that are subject to risks and uncertainties. Important factors that could cause
actual results to differ materially from those projected by such forward-looking
statements are set forth in Exhibit 99 to the Annual Report on Form 10-KSB for
the year ended November 30, 1996, which is herein incorporated by reference.
These include operating losses, liquidity, reliance on major distributors, new
product development, competition, technological change, patents, trade secrets,
product liability, dependence on key suppliers, and dependence on key personnel.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
NET SALES
The Company markets its products directly to end users through an internal sales
force utilizing outside distributors. Revenue for all sales is recognized when
title transfers, generally when products are shipped.
Net sales increased by $99,000 (16.0%) to $730,000 in the first quarter of 2000
as compared to $631,000 in the first quarter of 1999. The increase in sales was
attributable to an increase in the Company's contamination control products,
primarily in UltraSOLV(TM)wipers.
GROSS MARGIN
The Company recorded a negative gross margin of $447,000 as compared to a
negative gross margin of $133,000 in the same period of 1999.
Although the Company recognized gross profits on the sale of its contamination
control products, the loss was attributable to high unabsorbed operating costs
of its glove manufacturing plant as the Company continues to ramp up sales of
its DuraClean glove.
SELLING, GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSES
Selling, general and administrative expenses include additional costs related to
the Company's marketing activities and administrative costs (such as executive
and office salaries, related payroll expenses, investor relations, professional
fees, supplies and utilities).
Selling, general and administrative expenses decreased $153,000 (24%) to
$495,000 in the first quarter of 2000 from $648,000 in the first quarter of
1999. The decrease in expense was due primarily to reductions in executive
headcount, and a severance reserve of $50,000 for exiting President and CEO
recorded in the first quarter of 1999.
8
9
RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT
Research and development expenses decreased $66,000 (100%) to less than $1,000
in the first quarter of 2000 as compared to $66,000 in the first quarter of
1999. The decline was due to decreased project expenses and a reduction in
personnel.
INTEREST INCOME (EXPENSE), NET
The Company reported higher interest expense in the first quarter versus the
same period of 1999 due to increased debt outstanding and higher interest rates
in fiscal 2000. The interest expense was related primarily to the line of credit
due to Trilon Dominion Partners, LLC. (See Note 3).
INCOME TAXES
For the quarters ended February 29, 2000 and February 28, 1999, the Company
sustained losses for both financial reporting and income tax purposes. A tax
provision of $1,000 related to state income taxes was recorded in the financial
statements for 1999 and 2000.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
Management assesses the Company's liquidity by its ability to generate cash to
fund its operations. Significant factors in the management of liquidity are:
funds generated by operations; levels of accounts receivable, inventories,
accounts payable and capital expenditures; adequate lines of credit; and
financial flexibility to attract long-term capital on satisfactory terms.
During 1999 and the first three months of 2000, the Company has not generated
sufficient cash from operations to fund its working capital and equipment
purchase requirements. Net cash used in operating activities was $512,000 in the
first three months of 2000 versus net cash used in operating activities of
$685,000 in the first quarter of 1999. The decrease in the cash used in
operating activities was primarily due to a reduction in inventories.
Net cash used in investing activities was $59,000 in the first three months of
2000, versus net cash used by investing activities of $225,000 in the first
three months of 1999. The higher investing activities in the first quarter of
the prior year was due to major purchases of glove production equipment that
occurred in the first part of fiscal 1999.
Net cash provided by financing activities was $450,000 in the first three months
of 2000 versus $1,031,000 in the first three months of 1999. The debt financing
in both years was obtained from Trilon Dominion Partners, LLC.
On March 31, 1998, the Company and Trilon Dominion completed an Amended and
Restated Credit Agreement and Revolving Line of Credit (the "Amended Agreement")
which included principal of $4,000,000 from a previous agreement, $750,000 from
Demand Notes, accrued interest and management fees of $543,297 on the Agreement
and Demand Notes, and a new credit line commitment of $2,200,000. Under the
terms of the Amended Agreement, the principal of $7,493,297 was due on December
31, 1998, and interest was payable quarterly at an annual rate of 11.5%. From
March 1998 to November 1998, the Company issued Demand notes totaling $930,000
at an interest rate of 11.5% under the credit line agreement.
In December of 1998, the Company amended the credit line agreement to extend the
terms to January 31, 2000. The Company further extended the credit line
agreement to June 30, 2000 in a December 31, 1999 amendment. In fiscal 1999, the
Company issued demand notes totaling $3,510,000 under the line of credit
agreement and capitalized debt issuance costs of $18,000. Of
9
10
the notes issued in fiscal 1999, $2,010,000 of notes bear interest at a rate of
11.5% annually; the remaining $1,500,000 of demand notes bear interest at a rate
of prime plus 3% (11.5% at November 30, 1999).
For the first three months of fiscal 2000, the Company issued demand notes
totaling $450,000 at an interest rate of prime plus 3% (11.75% at February 29,
2000).
As of April 6, 2000, the Company has used its current credit facilities and
anticipates continuing negative cash flow through at least the first half of
fiscal year 2000. Management believes that Trilon Dominion, the Company's
largest shareholder with over 72% of the shares outstanding, will continue to
support the Company as necessary through the end of fiscal year 2000.
