AND SUBSIDIARIES (FORMERLY CHINAB2BSOURCING.COM, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES) NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE PERIOD ENDED SEPTEMBER 26, 2003 (UNAUDITED) 1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for interim unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and with the instructions to Form 10-QSB. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and disclosures required for annual financial statements. These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and related footnotes included in the International Smart Sourcing, Inc. and Subsidiaries' (the "Company") annual report on Form 10-KSB for the year ended December 27, 2002. In the opinion of the Company's management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) necessary to present fairly the Company's financial position as of September 26, 2003 and the results of operations and cash flows for the periods shown have been included. The results of operations for the periods ended September 26, 2003, are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year ending December 26, 2003. 2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES Definition of Fiscal Year The Company maintains its books on a 53/52 week fiscal year ending on the last Friday of the month. The "Quarter ended September 26, 2003" represents the period from June 28, 2003 to September 26, 2003 and the "Three Quarters ended September 26, 2003" represents the period from December 28, 2002 to September 26, 2003. The "Quarter ended September 27, 2002" represents the period from June 29, 2002 to September 27, 2002 and the "Three Quarters ended September 27, 2002" represents the period from December 29, 2001 to September 27, 2002. 4 Recent Accounting Pronouncements - In April 2003, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 149, "Amendment of Statement No.133 on Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities." SFAS No. 149 amends and clarifies financial accounting and reporting for derivative instruments, including certain derivative instruments embedded in other contracts and for hedging activities under SFAS No. 133, "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities". Except for the provisions of SFAS No. 149 that relate to SFAS No. 133 implementation issues that are effective for fiscal quarters beginning prior to June 15, 2003, SFAS No.149 is effective for contracts entered into or modified after June 30, 2003 and for hedging relationships designated after June 30, 2003. The adoption of SFAS No. 149 is not expected to have a material impact on the Company's financial position, results of operations or cash flows. - In May 2003, the FASB issued SFAS No. 150 "Accounting for Certain Financial Instruments with Characteristics of both Liabilities and Equity." SFAS No. 150 establishes standards for classification and measurement in the statement of financial position of certain financial instruments with characteristics of both liabilities and equity. It requires classification of a financial instrument that is within its scope as a liability (or an asset in some circumstances). SFAS No. 150 is effective for financial instruments entered into or modified after May 31, 2003, and otherwise is effective at the beginning of the first interim period beginning after June 15, 2003. Under the shareholders' agreement, dated April 22, 1999, amended July 1, 2003, the Company was required to redeem common shares of certain shareholders of the Company. In September 2003, the Company further amended the shareholders' agreement whereby the Company would not be required to redeem common shares of certain shareholders of the Company (see Note 8). Accordingly, the adoption of SFAS No. 150 did not have a material impact on the Company's financial position, results of operations or cash flows. STOCK BASED COMPENSATION As permitted under SFAS No. 148, "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation - Transition and Disclosure," which amended SFAS No. 123, "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation," the Company has elected to continue to follow the intrinsic value method in accounting for its stock-based employee compensation arrangements as defined by Accounting Principles Board Opinion ("APB") No. 25, "Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees," and related interpretations including FASB Interpretation No. 44, "Accounting for Certain Transactions Involving Stock Compensation," an interpretation of APB No. 25. No stock-based employee compensation cost is reflected in operations, as all options granted have an exercise price equal to or above the market value of the underlying common stock on the date of the grant. 5 The following table illustrates the effect on net income (loss) per share if the Company had applied the fair value recognition provisions of SFAS No. 123 to stock-based employee compensation: Three Quarters Ended ---------------------------- September 26, September 27, 2003 2002 ------------ ------------ Net income (loss) as reported $ 885,686 $ (267,323) Less: total stock-based employee compensation expense determined under fair value method, net of related tax effects 355,769 204,882 ----------- ----------- Pro Forma net income (loss) $ 529,917 $ (472,205) =========== =========== Net income (loss) per share: Basic earnings per share as reported $ 0.23 $ (0.07) Pro Forma basic earnings per share $ 0.14 $ (0.13) Diluted earnings per share as reported $ 0.22 $ (0.07) Pro Forma diluted earnings per share $ 0.13 $ (0.13) Quarter Ended ---------------------------- September 26, September 27, 2003 2002 ------------ ------------ Net income as reported $ 253,474 $ 108,350 Less: total stock-based employee compensation expense determined under fair value method, net of related tax effects 114,623 85,758 ----------- ----------- Pro Forma net income $ 138,851 $ 22,592 =========== =========== Net income per share: Basic earnings per share as reported $ 0.07 $ 0.03 Pro Forma basic earnings per share $ 0.04 $ 0.01 Diluted earnings per share as reported $ 0.06 $ 0.03 Pro Forma diluted earnings per share $ 0.03 $ 0.01 6 3. CUSTOMERS During the three quarters ended September 26, 2003 and September 27, 2002, two customers accounted for approximately 59% and 7% and 50% and 8%, respectively, of the Company's sales. During the quarters ended September 26, 2003 and September 27, 2002, two customers accounted for 61% and 4% and 51% and 10%, respectively, of the Company's sales. The United States government accounted for approximately 59% and 50% of the Company's sales for the three quarters ended September 26, 2003 and September 27, 2002, respectively. The United States government accounted for approximately 35% of the Company's outstanding accounts receivable as of September 26, 2003. 4. INVENTORIES Inventories net, consist of the following at September 26, 2003: Raw Materials $ 335,931 Work in Process 48,581 Finished Goods 1,419,057 ----------- 1,803,569 Less: reserve for (108,000) obsolescence ------------ $ 1,695,569 ============ 5. SELLING AND SHIPPING The Company classifies shipping and handling costs as a component of selling and shipping expenses. Shipping and handling costs were $353,708 and $319,827 for the three quarters ended September 26, 2003 and September 27, 2002, respectively. Shipping and handling costs were $103,956 and $85,802 for the quarter ended September 26, 2003 and September 26, 2002, respectively. The Company does not separately charge these costs to its customers. 6. RELATED PARTY SALES Sales during the three quarters ended September 26, 2003 and September 27, 2002 included $146,199 and $248,945, respectively to another company owned by the three officers/shareholders of the Company. Gross profit on such sales was $25,786 and $67,655 for the three quarters ended September 26, 2003 and September 27, 2002, respectively. Sales during the quarter ended September 26, 2003 and September 27, 2002 included $54,000 and $51,976, respectively, to another company owned by the three officers/shareholders of the Company. Gross profit on such sales was $855 and $16,630, 7 respectively. The lower gross profits on sales in the third quarter results from a one time allowance to the customer which will extend through December 31, 2003 for costs incurred in the relocation of molds and associated production from the customer's facility to the Company's facility. Accounts receivable from the related company was $104,522 at September 26, 2003. The Company leases the premises in Farmingdale, N.Y. from another company owned by two of the officers/shareholders of the Company. Rent expense for the three quarters ended September 26, 2003 and September 27, 2002 was $136,764 and $129,195, respectively. Rent expense for the quarter ended September 26, 2003 and September 27, 2002 was $45,588 and $43,065, respectively. 7. LINE OF CREDIT In April 2001, the Company entered into a revolving line of credit agreement with a bank that provided for a maximum borrowing of up to $1,500,000, subject to certain conditions, at an annual interest rate of prime plus 1.75%. The loan was secured by substantially all assets of the Company and an aggregate of $750,000 which was unconditionally guaranteed by three officers/shareholders, each limited to $250,000. The bank that provided the Company with the above credit facility was closed by the Connecticut Banking Department on June 27, 2002, with the F.D.I.C. assuming receivership of the failed bank. On June 24, 2003, the Company entered into an agreement with the F.D.I.C. to settle the loan at a discounted amount of $897,150 plus accrued interest. The Company repaid $902,773 on July 30, 2003, which resulted in a gain on extinguishment of debt of $100,000. The Company received written confirmation of its release and discharge from any further obligation to the F.D.I.C. On July 29, 2003, the Company closed on a Revolving Line of Credit ("the line") with People's Bank with a maximum borrowing of up to $1,500,000. Under the revolving line agreement the Company is required to meet certain financial covenants. The line matures May 31, 2004 and bears annual interest at the Bank's prime rate (4% at September 26, 2003) plus one percent (1%), payable monthly. The lines availability will vary based on eligibility of accounts receivable and inventory. The loan is secured by substantially all assets of the Company and $750,000 which is unconditionally guaranteed by the three officers/shareholders, each limited to $250,000. 8. SHAREHOLDERS' EQUITY In September 2003 the shareholders' agreement dated April 22, 1999 was further amended to remove the requirement of the Company to redeem common shares of certain shareholders of the Company upon the shareholder's death. 8 9. SEGMENT AND GEOGRAPHIC INFORMATION The Company views its operations as principally two segments. The first is distribution and manufacturing of plastic components. The second is outsourcing of manufacturing. The segments share a common workforce and office headquarters, which preclude an allocation of all overhead components. Overhead items that are specifically identifiable to a particular segment are applied to such segment. The Company's segment information for the three quarters ended September 26, 2003 and September 27, 2002 is as follows: Distribution Corporate and and Manufacturing Outsourcing Other Consolidated ------------- ----------- ----------- ------------ Three Quarters ended September 26, 2003 Net Sales $ 7,648,348 $ 1,692,252 $ -- $ 9,340,600 Cost of Goods Sold 4,473,415 1,055,637 -- 5,529,052 ----------- ----------- ----------- ----------- Gross Profit $ 3,174,933 $ 636,615 $ -- $ 3,811,548 =========== =========== =========== =========== Gross Profit % 41.5% 37.6% -- 40.8% Segment Assets 2,886,430 853,967 187,401 3,927,798 Segment Net Income (Loss) $ 1,490,842 $ (440,340) $ (164,816) $ 885,686 Distribution Corporate and and Manufacturing Outsourcing Other Consolidated ------------- ----------- ----------- ------------ Three Quarters ended September 27, 2002 Net Sales $ 6,029,926 $ 1,556,192 $ 1,500 $ 7,587,618 Cost of Goods Sold 4,004,842 1,162,619 96 5,167,557 ----------- ----------- ----------- ----------- Gross Profit $ 2,025,084 $ 393,573 $ 1,404 $ 2,420,061 =========== =========== =========== =========== Gross Profit % 33.6% 25.3% 93.6% 31.9% Segment Assets 2,542,972 922,936 180,009 3,645,917 Segment Net Income (Loss) $ 220,456 $ (472,633) $ (15,146) $ (267,323) The Company's segment information for the quarters ended September 26, 2003 and September 27, 2002 are as follows: Distribution Corporate and and Manufacturing Outsourcing Other Consolidated ------------- ----------- ----------- ------------ Quarter ended September 26, 2003 Net Sales $ 2,419,026 $ 516,841 $ -- $ 2,935,867 Cost of Goods Sold 1,357,601 309,991 -- 1,667,592 ----------- ----------- ----------- ----------- Gross Profit $ 1,061,425 $ 206,850 $ -- $ 1,268,275 =========== =========== =========== =========== Gross Profit % 43.9% 40.0% -- 43.2% Segment Net Income (Loss) $ 565,894 $ (218,768) $ (93,652) $ 253,474 9 Distribution Corporate and and Manufacturing Outsourcing Other Consolidated ------------- ----------- ----------- ------------ Quarter ended September 27, 2002 Net Sales $ 2,064,319 $ 580,677 $ -- 2,644,996 Cost of Goods Sold 1,348,635 400,524 0 1,749,159 ----------- ----------- ----------- ----------- Gross Profit $ 715,684 $ 180,153 $ 0 $ 895,837 =========== =========== =========== =========== Gross Profit % 34.7% 31.0% 0.0% 33.9% Segment Net Income (Loss) $ 115,566 $ (65,465) $ 58,249 $ 108,350 10. INCOME TAXES The Company has a net operating loss carryforward for tax purposes totaling approximately $5,843,000 at September 26, 2003 expiring between the years 2011 through 2023. Tax benefits from the utilization of net operating loss carryforwards will be recorded at such time and to such extent, they are assured beyond a reasonable doubt. As such, the resulting estimated deferred tax assets of approximately $2,372,000 as of September 26, 2003, have been offset by a corresponding valuation allowance. The Company utilized approximately $928,000 of their net operating loss during the three quarters ended September 26, 2003. 11. EARNINGS (LOSS) PER SHARE Basic earnings (loss) per share ("EPS") is determined by dividing net income (loss) for the period by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the same period. Diluted EPS reflects the potential dilution that could occur if securities or other contracts to issue common stock were exercised or converted into common stock or resulted in the issuance of common stock which would then share in the earnings of the Company. For the quarter and three quarters ended September 26, 2003 the Company had approximately 403,500 stock options and 376,833 and 8,333 stock options and warrants, respectively, that were not included in the dilutive earnings per share calculation because the exercise price of these items were greater than the average market price of the common stock for the period. For the three quarters ended September 27, 2002 all stock options and warrants were antidilutive. For the quarter ended September 27, 2002 the Company had approximately 998,500 and 74,781 stock options and warrants, respectively, that were not included in the dilutive earnings per share calculation because the exercise price of these items were greater than the average market price of the common stock for the period. 10 The following table sets forth the components used in the computation of basic and diluted earnings (loss) per share: Three Quarters Ended ----------------------------- September 26, September 27, 2003 2002 ------------ ------------ Numerator: Net income (loss) $ 885,686 $ (267,323) =========== =========== Denominator: Weighted average shares 3,777,384 3,760,934 ----------- ----------- Effect of dilutive securities: Employee stock options 178,765 -- Stock warrants 11,182 -- ----------- ----------- 189,947 -- ----------- ----------- Denominator for diluted earnings per Share-adjusted weighted average shares after assumed conversions 3,967,331 3,760,934 =========== =========== Quarter Ended ----------------------------- September 26, September 27, 2003 2002 ------------ ------------ Numerator: Net income $ 253,474 $ 108,350 =========== =========== Denominator: Weighted average shares 3,777,384 3,760,934 ----------- ----------- Effect of dilutive securities: Employee stock options 182,216 3,553 Stock warrants 11,510 -- ----------- ----------- 193,726 3,553 ----------- ----------- Denominator for diluted earnings per Share-adjusted weighted average shares after assumed conversions 3,971,110 3,764,487 =========== =========== 11 ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OR PLAN OF OPERATIONS Electronic Hardware Corporation ("EHC") is a subsidiary that has over 30 years of experience in the design, marketing and manufacture of injection molded plastic components used in industrial, consumer, and military products. It also offers secondary operations on our molded products. Services such as hand painting, pad printing, hot stamping and engraving are provided at a customer's request. EHC represents the Company's manufacturing and distribution segment. International Plastic Technologies ("IPT") specializes in assisting companies in reducing their cost of manufacturing by outsourcing to China. Through our offices in the United States and China, IPT has put in place the system necessary to simplify the transition of moving work to China. IPT's product specialization includes tooling, injection molding and secondary operations, castings, mechanical, assemblies, electronic manufacturing services and metal stampings. IPT represents the Company's outsourcing segment. Compact Disc Packaging Corp. ("CDP") is currently inactive. Its business is the manufacturing, marketing and sale of a compact disc packaging system. RESULTS OF OPERATIONS For the three quarters ended September 26, 2003 compared to the three quarters ended September 27, 2002. NET SALES Net consolidated sales for the three quarters ended September 26, 2003 were $9,340,600 compared to sales of $7,587,618 for the three quarters ended September 27, 2002. The increase of $1,752,982 or 23.1% was attributed to an increase of orders through the EHC contract with the Defense Supply Center in Philadelphia ("DSCP"), as well as an increase in commercial, non-military products and an increase of sales for IPT. Net sales for EHC for the three quarters ended September 26, 2003 were $7,648,348 compared to sales of $6,029,926 for the same three quarters ended September 27, 2003. IPT had sales of $1,692,252 for the three quarters ended September 27, 2003 compared to sales of $1,556,192 for the same three quarters ended September 27, 2002. GROSS PROFITS The Company realized an overall gross profit margin percentage for the three quarters ended September 26, 2003 of 40.8%, as compared to 31.9% experienced during the three quarters ended September 27, 2002.

Historically, the Company's primary source of liquidity has been cash flow generated internally from operations. The Company's cash decreased to $450,191 on September 26, 2003 from $456,727 on December 27, 2002. Cash flow provided by operating activities was $509,539 for the three quarters ended September 26, 2003 on net income of $885,686. The increase in accounts receivable is the result of increased sales to the DSCP. The net increase in inventory results from the combination of a reserve of approximately $108,000 of obsolete inventory and a build up of government products. The decrease in prepaid expenses and other current assets is a result of the expensing of deposits placed and costs associated with tooling and production orders in process that were completed at September 26, 2003. Cash used in investing activities for the three quarters ended September 26, 2003 was $35,338, which consisted of cash for the purchase of computer equipment. Net cash used in financing activities for the three quarters ended September 26, 2003 was $480,737. Cash of $ 142,611 was used to make principal payments on loans payable and $31,000 was used to make capital lease repayments. The bank that provided the Company with its credit facility was closed by the Connecticut Banking Department on June 27, 2002, with the F.D.I.C. assuming receivership of the failed bank. On June 24, 2003, the Company entered into an agreement with the F.D.I.C. to settle the loan at a discounted amount of $897,150 plus accrued interest. The Company repaid $902,773 on July 30, 2003, which resulted in a gain on extinguishment of debt of $100,000. The Company received written confirmation of its release and discharge from any further obligation to the F.D.I.C. On July 29, 2003, the Company closed on a Revolving Line of Credit ("the line") with People's Bank with a maximum amount of borrowing of up to $1,500,000. Under the revolving line agreement the Company will be required to meet certain financial covenants. The line matures May 31, 2004 and bears annual interest at the Bank's prime rate plus one percent (1%), payable monthly. The lines availability will vary based on eligibility of accounts receivable and inventory. 15 CAUTIONARY FACTORS REGARDING FUTURE OPERATING RESULTS The matters discussed in this form 10-QSB other than historical material are forward-looking statements.
