ACTION PRODUCTS INTERNATIONAL, INC. AND SUBSIDIARY

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)

1. Condensed consolidated financial statements. In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements contain all normal recurring adjustments necessary to present fairly the financial position of Action Products International, Inc. and its subsidiary, Action Products Canada Ltd. (collectively, the “Company”), at June 30, 2004 and the results of its (i) operations for the three month and six month periods ended June 30, 2004 and 2003 and (ii) cash flows for the six month periods ended June 30, 2004 and 2003. The financial information included herein is taken from the books and records of the Company and is unaudited.

Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles have been condensed or omitted. These condensed financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s annual report on Form 10-KSB for the year ended December 31, 2003. The results of operations for the six month period ended June 30, 2004 are not necessarily indicative of the operating results for the full year. Through June 30, 2004, the Company has been able to meet its obligations as they come due; however, it is at least reasonably possible that if the Company continues to incur losses and negative cash flows, it will have to obtain additional sources of debt or equity financing to maintain its liquidity. There can be no assurance that such financing will be available or available on terms acceptable to the Company, if needed.

2. Line of credit. In June 2003, the Company entered into an agreement with a financial institution, to renew an existing revolving line of credit (the “Revolver”) for up to $2 million at prime plus ½%. The borrowings under the Revolver are collateralized by inventory and accounts receivable. The Company utilizes the Revolver to finance accounts receivable, inventory and other operating and capital requirements. The renewed Revolver matures June 30, 2005 and contains covenants relating to the financial condition of the Company. If the Company fails to maintain compliance with the financial covenants contained in the Revolver, the maturity date could be accelerated. The Company is currently in compliance with all of the covenants.

3. Mortgage Payable. In November 1998, the Company borrowed $750,000 in the form of a mortgage payable. The mortgage is collateralized by real estate and improvements and contains certain restrictive covenants, which provide that, among other things, the Company maintain a minimum working capital, net worth, debt service coverage and a maximum debt to net worth ratio. If the Company fails to maintain compliance with the financial covenants contained in the note, the maturity date could be accelerated. At December 31, 2003, the Company was not in compliance with the debt service coverage covenant. However, the Company has obtained a waiver of non-compliance from the financial institution for the twelve month period ending December 31, 2004.

4. Earnings per share. Common stock equivalents were not included in the computation of diluted earnings per share for the three month period ending June 30, 2004 and six month periods ending June 30, 2004 and 2003, as their effect would have been anti-dilutive.

5. Common Stock and Equity Securities. On April 24, 2003 the Company announced a Warrant distribution to all shareholders of record as of June 12, 2003. Shareholders were issued one warrant for each share of common stock owned as of the record date. The warrant entitles the holder to purchase common stock at an exercise price of $2.00 per share with an original expiration date of June 11, 2004. As of June 30, 2003 approximately 3,272,100 warrants had been issued. On June 3, 2004 the Board of Directors elected to extend the life of the warrants. The new expiration date is Friday June 9, 2006 at 5:00 PM E.S.T. There is no other change in the terms of the warrant. As of June 30, 2004 warrants outstanding totaled 2,045,000.

Page 6 of 18

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (cont.)

In January 2004, the Company issued a warrant for services, which entitles the holder to purchase 50,000 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $4.00 per share. The Company used the Black-Scholes valuation model to estimate the fair value of these warrants, which resulted in an estimated fair value of $50,800. As of June 30, 2004, no warrants under this agreement had been exercised.

On March 30, 2004, the Company announced that the Board of Directors had authorized a program for repurchases of up to 150,000 shares of common stock. The repurchased shares will be held in the treasury. The Company did not repurchase any shares of its common stock during the first six months of 2004.

At June 30, 2004, the Company has one stock-based employee compensation plan. The Company accounts for the plan under the recognition and measurement principles of APB Opinion No. 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees and related Interpretations. No stock-based employee compensation cost is reflected in net income, as all options granted under the plan had an exercise price not less than the market value of the underlying common stock on the date of grant. The effect on net income and earnings per share if the Company had applied the fair value recognition provisions of FASB Statement No. 123, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation, to stock-based employee compensation is shown below:

6. Related Party Transactions. In March and April 2004, the Company issued notes payable to Warren Kaplan and Judith Kaplan for a total of $645,000. The notes were for a two year term and provided for monthly interest payments of 6% on the outstanding principal balance and 129,000 warrants to purchase common stock at $4.50 per share. An accrual for loan fees of $178,100 was recorded to reflect the estimated value of the warrants. The warrants terminate in April 2009. As of June 30, 2004, the Company had paid the $645,000 principal balance in full. In May 2004, as consideration for the accelerated prepayment of the total loan principal, the Kaplans relinquished the 129,000 warrants issues to them.

7. Other Commitments. On March 29, 2004 the Company entered into an operating lease for 19,000 square feet of additional warehouse space. The lease commencing April 1, 2004 is for a one year term, with monthly payments of $8,550.

8. Reclassifications. Certain amounts from the prior period have been reclassified to conform to the current period presentation.

and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors that may cause our actual results, performance or achievements to be materially different from any future results, performance or achievements expressed or implied by the forward-looking statements. The following factors, among others, could cause actual results to differ materially from those set forth in the forward-looking statements: our ability to successfully develop our brands and proprietary products through internal development, licensing and/or mergers and acquisitions. Additional factors include, but are not limited to the following: the size and growth of the market for our products, competition, pricing pressures, market acceptance of our products, the effect of economic conditions, intellectual property rights, the results of financing efforts, risks in product development, other risks identified in this report and our other periodic filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

Results of Operations:

Three Months Ended June 30, 2004 Compared With Three Months Ended June 30, 2003

The following should be read in conjunction with our consolidated financial statements and the related notes thereto included elsewhere herein. The following table sets forth, as a percentage of net sales, certain items appearing in our consolidated statements of operations.

	Three Months Ended June 30, 2004		Three Months Ended June 30, 2003
Net Sales	100	%	100	%
Cost of Sales	50	%	48	%
Gross Profit	50	%	52	%
Selling Expense	32	%	28	%
General and Administrative Expense	32	%	22	%
Total Operating Expense	64	%	50	%

Other Income (Expense)	—		(1	%)
Income (Loss) before income taxes	(14	%)	1	%
Taxes	1	%	—
Net Income (Loss)	(13	%)	1	%

Net sales for the three months ended June 30, 2004 were $1,937,300, compared with net sales of $2,265,700 for the three months ended June 30, 2003. Management attributes the $328,400 or 14% decrease to a decline of over $1 million in sales to toy chain stores. This decline was largely offset by sales of the recently acquired Curiosity Kits products and increased sales to independent toy stores, museums and selected mass market accounts, resulting from our ongoing efforts to broaden our base of distribution.

Gross profit decreased by $207,300 to $973,600 for the three months ended June 30, 2004, compared with $1,180,900 for the three months ended June 30, 2003. The gross profit percentage decreased from 52% to 50% for the three month periods ended June 30, 2004 and 2003 respectively. The decrease in gross profit is mainly attributable to the decrease in sales discussed above. The decrease in gross profit percentage compared to the same period in 2003, was mainly attributable to an increase in importation freight costs.

Selling, general and administrative (SG&A) expenses increased by $104,000 to $1,232,100 for the three month period ended June 30, 2004 from $1,128,100 for the three month period ended June 30, 2003. This 9% increase in SG&A expenses is due primarily to:

• An increase in compensation costs of $115,100 due principally to staffing additions in product development, sales, customer service and warehouse operations

• Advertising and promotion of $57,800 resulting from increased merchandising promotion and trade show participation

Page 8 of 18

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (cont.)

ITEM 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (Continued)

Selling, general and administrative (SG&A) expenses (cont.)

• Outbound freight of $43,200 resulting from a lower mix of direct factory shipments

• Travel expenses of $33,000 related principally to trade show attendance and product sourcing activities

The increase in SG&A was partially offset by an $111,600 decrease in royalty fees.

Interest expense related to current and long-term debt was $39,700 and $30,400 for the three month periods ended June 30, 2004 and 2003, respectively. The increase of $9,300 is due to higher borrowings under our line of credit and notes payable related to the Curiosity Kits, Inc. acquisition.

Other income and (expense) during the three month periods ended June 30, 2004 and 2003 was $31,100 and $3,700, respectively. The $27,400 change was mainly attributable to increased service charges.

Income (loss) before income taxes and net income (loss), as a result of the foregoing, was ($267,100) and ($252,700) respectively for the three months ended June 30, 2004, compared with income before income taxes of $26,100 and net income of $26,100 for the three months ended June 30, 2003.

Six Months Ended June 30, 2004 Compared With Six Months Ended June 30, 2003

The following should be read in conjunction with our consolidated financial statements and the related notes thereto included elsewhere herein. The following table sets forth, as a percentage of net sales, certain items appearing in our consolidated statements of operations.

	Six Months Ended June 30, 2004		Six Months Ended June 30, 2003
Net Sales	100	%	100	%
Cost of Sales	50	%	48	%
Gross Profit	50	%	52	%
Selling Expense	31	%	26	%
General and Administrative Expense	31	%	27	%

Other Income (Expense)	—		(2	%)
Loss before income taxes	(12	%)	(3	%)
Taxes	—		—
Net Loss	(12	%)	(3	%)

Net sales for the six months ended June 30, 2004 were $3,700,100, compared with net sales of $3,650,800 for the six months ended June 30, 2003. Management attributes the $49,300 or 1% increase in net sales to significant increases in sales to independent toy stores, museums and selected mass market accounts for the six months ended June 30, 2004 which offset a $1 million decline in sales to toy chain stores compared to the six month period ended June 30, 2003.

Gross profit decreased by $31,800 to $1,865,100 for the six months ended June 30, 2004, compared with $1,896,900 for the six months ended June 30, 2003. The gross profit percentage decreased to 50% from 52% for the six month periods ended June 30, 2004 and 2003 respectively. The decrease in gross profit is mainly attributable to the decrease in gross profit percentage. The decrease in gross profit percentage compared to the same period in 2003, was mainly attributable to higher importation freight costs.

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (cont.)

ITEM 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (Continued)

Selling, general and administrative (SG&A) expenses increased by $367,300 to $2,314,200 for the six month period ended June 30, 2004 from $1,946,900 for the six month period ended June 30, 2003. This 19% increase in SG&A expenses is due primarily to increases in:

• Compensation costs of $223,500 due principally to staffing additions in marketing, sales, customer service and warehouse operations

• Advertising and promotion of $94,800 resulting from increased merchandising promotion and trade show participation

• Outbound freight of $64,900 resulting from a lower mix of direct factory shipments

• Travel of $45,500 related principally to trade show attendance and product sourcing activities

• Commissions of $45,400 resulting from a higher mix of specialty store sales

This increase in SG&A was partially offset by a decrease in royalty fees of $103,000.

Interest expense related to current and long-term debt was $54,200 and $55,300 for the six month periods ended June 30, 2004 and 2003, respectively. The decrease of $1,100 is due to lower borrowings under our line of credit.

Other income and (expense) during the six month periods ended June 30, 2004 and 2003 was $47,400 and $1,400, respectively. The $46,000 change was mainly attributable to a decrease in miscellaneous expense related to the settlement of a legal claim in the first quarter of 2003 and increased service charges.

Loss before income taxes and net loss, as a result of the foregoing, was $455,900 and $441,500 respectively, for the six months ended June 30, 2004, compared with $103,900 and $103,900 for the six months ended June 30, 2003.

Financial Condition, Liquidity, and Capital Resources

As of June 30, 2004, we had cash and cash equivalents of $234,100 representing a decrease of $516,000 since December 31, 2003.

After taking account of non-cash items and other adjustments, our cash requirements for operations for the six months ended June 30, 2004 were $604,600. The principal source of cash from operating activities for the six months ended June 30, 2004 was an increase in accounts payable of $181,500 due to a seasonal increase in inventory purchases. Principal uses of cash from operating activities in the first six months of fiscal 2004 were seasonal increases of:

• $288,500 in other assets

• $241,400 in accounts receivable and

• $155,200 in prepaid expenses

The principal source of cash from investing activities for the first six months of 2004 was $30,300 from the sale of investment securities. The principal uses of cash from investing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2004 were $1,870,900 for the acquisition of Curiosity Kits and $57,300 for additional computer equipment.

To meet a portion of our operating cash requirements, we increased our borrowing under our line of credit by $506,500, increased notes payable by $645,000 and received net proceeds of $1,578,400 from common stock option and warrant exercises. After applying $743,400 to repayment of notes payable, mortgage and capital lease principal, this left net cash from financing activities of $1,986,500.

Our line of credit provides for borrowings up to $2,000,000 at the prime rate plus  ¹/2% and matures June 30, 2005. Under the line of credit agreement, we are subject to financial covenants relating to certain asset balances and financial ratios. As of June 30, 2004 we were eligible to borrow $2,000,000 under our line of credit and were in compliance with our financial covenants.

As of the end of the period covered by this report, our company conducted an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our chief executive officer and chief financial officer, of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) of the Exchange Act). Based on this evaluation, our chief executive officer and chief financial officer concluded that our company’s disclosure controls and procedures are effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in Securities and Exchange Commission rules and forms.

There was no change in our internal controls, which are included within disclosure controls and procedures, during our most recently completed fiscal quarter that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal controls.

ITEM 2. Changes in Securities

Recent Sales of Unregistered Securities

In April 2004, we issued notes payable to Warren Kaplan and Judith Kaplan for a total of $150,000. The notes are for a two year term and provide for monthly interest payments of 6% on the outstanding principal balance and 30,000 warrants to purchase common stock at $4.50 per share. The warrants terminate in April 2009. The notes and warrants are substantially the same as the $495,000 principal amount notes and 99,000 warrants issued to the Kaplans in March 2004. In May 2004, as consideration for the accelerated prepayment of the March 2004 and April 2004 notes, the Kaplans relinquished the 99,000 and 30,000 warrants issued to them. The issuance of the notes and the warrants were determined to be exempt from registration under Section 4(2) of the Securities Act and Rule 506 thereunder as transactions by an issuer not involving a public offering solely to “accredited investors”.

The recipients of securities in each such transaction represented their intention to acquire the securities for investment only and not with a view to or for sale in connection with any distribution thereof and appropriate legends were affixed to the share certificates and other instruments issued in such transactions. The sales of these securities were made without general solicitation or advertising. All of the foregoing securities are deemed restricted securities for the purposes of the Securities Act.

Repurchase of Securities

We did not repurchase any of our common shares during the second quarter of 2004.
