The WW Group, Inc. and Affiliated Companies
Notes to Combined Financial Statements

1.Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Nature of business

The WW Group, Inc. (“WWG”) and affiliated companies offer weight loss and control programs through the operation of classroom type meetings to the general public.  WWG and affiliated companies provide these services under various franchise agreements with Weight Watchers International, Inc.  The classes are held in Michigan, Ohio, Pennsylvania, Missouri, Rhode Island, Indiana, Kentucky, Illinois, Massachusetts, New Hampshire, Vermont, West Virginia, Canada and Mexico.

Principles of combination

The financial statements of The WW Group, Inc., Cuida Kilos, S. A. de C. V. (a Mexican corporation), The WW Group, Co. (a Canadian company), The WW Group West, LLC, Bub’s Wings L.L.C., and The WW Group East, LLC (collectively, the “Company” or “Companies”) have been combined because all companies have common ownership and management.  All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated.  The financial statements of The WW Real Estate Group, L.L.C. and M&L OnLine, L.L.C., Michigan limited liability companies owned by certain shareholders of the Companies, are not included in the combined financial statements.

Cash and cash equivalents

The Companies consider all highly liquid investments with an original maturity of 90 days or less to be cash equivalents.  Cash balances may, at times, exceed insurable amounts.  The Company believes it mitigates this risk by investing in or through major financial institutions.

Investments

In accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 115, “Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt and Equity Securities,” investments held by the Company are classified as held to maturity securities based on management’s intent and ability to hold such securities to maturity.

Inventory

Inventories consist mainly of cookbooks, scales, snack bars, and calculators, the sale of which are ancillary to the Company’s weight control classes.  Merchandise inventories are valued at the lower of cost or market on a first-in, first-out basis.

Property and equipment

Property and equipment are stated at cost.  Depreciation and amortization are computed using the straight-line method over the following useful lives:  office furniture and equipment, 5 years; improvements to leased premises, the shorter of 5 years or the term of the lease; and transportation equipment, 3 to 5 years.  Expenditures for new facilities and improvements that substantially extend the useful life of an asset are capitalized.  Ordinary repairs and maintenance are expensed as incurred.  The cost and accumulated depreciation of assets retired or sold are eliminated from the respective accounts at the time of retirement or sale, and the resulting gain or loss is included in the results of operations for the period.

Intangible assets

Effective January 1, 2002, the Company adopted SFAS No. 141, “Business Combinations” and SFAS No. 142, “Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets”, (“SFAS No. 142”).  As a result, the Company is no longer required to amortize indefinite life goodwill and intangible assets as a charge to earnings but is required to conduct an annual review of goodwill and other intangible assets for potential impairment.

6

Revenue recognition

The Company earns revenue by conducting classes and selling products and aids in its classes.  Revenue is recognized when registration fees are paid, services are rendered, products are provided to customers and title and risk of loss pass to the customer.  From time to time, the Company provides various discounts to customers, including free registration offers, which are deducted from gross revenue.

Unearned revenue

Unearned revenue consists of an estimate of prepayment coupons purchased but not yet redeemed by customers and advance class payments.

Foreign currency translation

For all foreign operations, the functional currency is the local currency.  The balance sheets of The WW Group, Co. and Cuida Kilos, S. A. de C. V. have been translated to United States dollars at the respective year-end exchange rates.  Revenues and expenses for the year ended December 31, 2002 have been translated at the average exchange rate in effect during 2002.  Transaction gains and losses are included in the determination of net income.  The foreign currency translation adjustments are included in other comprehensive income in the combined statement of shareholder’s equity.

Advertising

Advertising production costs are expensed the first time the related advertising takes place.  Advertising expense for the year ended December 31, 2002 was $6,728,874.

Income taxes

The shareholders of The WW Group, Inc. have elected to treat the Company as an S Corporation.  The WW Group West, LLC, The WW Group East, LLC and Bub’s Wings L.L.C. are Limited Liability Corporations.  Accordingly, no provision has been made for these companies related to U. S. federal income taxes since such taxes, if any, will be the liability of the shareholders.

The WW Group, Co. and Cuida Kilos, S. A. de C. V. are foreign corporations which are liable for foreign taxes levied by the relevant taxing authority.

Comprehensive income

The Company’s comprehensive income consists of net income and foreign currency translation adjustments.

Management 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 and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period.  Actual results could differ from those estimates.

2.Intangible Assets

The Company adopted SFAS No. 142 effective January 1, 2002, and accordingly, ceased amortization of franchise costs and goodwill at that date.  The Company performed a fair value impairment test as of December 31, 2002 on its franchise costs and goodwill which determined that no impairment loss was necessary.  As provided under SFAS No. 142, the Company evaluates its franchise costs and goodwill for impairment annually using a fair value method.

Intangible assets consist of the following at December 31, 2002:

Franchise costs	$	16,109,815
Goodwill	938,091
Total	$	17,047,906

5.Financing

The WW Group, Inc. has a line of credit agreement with available credit amount of $18,000,000.  After April 2003, the available credit decreases by $1,500,000 per year with the full balance due April 2006.  Interest is payable at either the bank’s prime rate or LIBOR plus a certain percent, depending upon the level of each borrowing and commitment period (the prime and LIBOR rates at December 31, 2002 were 4.25% and 1.38%, respectively).  The line of credit is collateralized by substantially all assets of the Company.

8

The Company’s bank financing agreement includes certain financial covenants, the most restrictive of which require the Company to maintain a minimum debt to EBITDA, debt to net worth, and restrictions on the amount of annual advances to affiliates.  The Company is in violation of the advances to affiliates covenant at December 31, 2002.

Long-term debt consists of the following at December 31:

The WW Group, Inc. loans payable to shareholders. Interest is accrued at a rate commensurate with the Internal Revenue Code applicable federal rate of 2.78% per annum at December 31, 2002. Loans are payable upon demand.	$	145,000
Total	145,000
Less - current portion	145,000
