AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 1994 (Unaudited) NOTE A - CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS The condensed consolidated balance sheets as of June 30, 1994 and 1993 and the condensed consolidated statements of operations for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 1994 and 1993 and the condensed consolidated statements of cash flows for the six month periods ended June 30, 1994 and 1993 have been prepared by the Company without audit. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (which include only normal recurring adjustments) necessary to present fairly the financial position, results of operations and cash flows for all periods presented have been made. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles have been omitted. It is suggested that these condensed consolidated financial statements be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 1993. The results of operations for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 1994 and 1993 are not necessarily indicative of the operating results for the full year. NOTE B - CREDIT AGREEMENT The Company is party to a loan and security agreement (the "Loan Agreement") with Congress Financial Corporation (Central) (the "Lender") which makes available to the Company through March 31, 1995 a line of credit up to $30 million, with provisions to increase to $40 million if an acquisition is made. Borrowing availability is determined by a formula based on qualified assets. The current interest rate is at prime rate plus 2%; the rate will increase by 0.25% if the increase in the credit occurs. In consideration for entering into the Loan Agreement, the Company has paid a $375,000 fee. The Company has also agreed to pay an unused line fee of 0.25% and certain management fees. The deferred loan fee is included in other assets and is being amortized using a straight-line method over the term of the loan. The Loan Agreement contains a restrictive covenant that sets a minimum requirement for shareholders' equity. Dividend payments may only be made with the consent of the Lender. 4 7 LEWIS GALOOB TOYS, INC.

NOTE D - INCOME TAXES The income tax provision reflects the quarterly application of the estimated annual rate based on projected full year earnings and includes the affect of the utilization of net operating loss carryforwards. In 1993, the Company retroactively adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 109 ("SFAS 109"), Accounting for Income Taxes. Adoption of SFAS 109 had no effect on the financial statements. At December 31, 1993, the Company had federal and California net operating loss carryforwards for income tax purposes of approximately $31,700,000 and $17,000,000, respectively. The federal and California carryforwards expire in different years through the year 2008 and 1998, respectively. The Company also has federal minimum tax credit carryforwards of $537,000 that are allowed to be carried forward indefinitely and federal research and development credits of $765,000, which will expire in different years through the year 2003. If certain substantial changes in the Company's ownership should occur, there would be an annual limitation on the amount of operating loss carryforwards which can be utilized. NOTE E - LEGAL PROCEEDINGS The current status of litigation is described in Part II, Item 1, herein. 5 8 Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations Results of Operations The following table sets forth for the periods indicated the percentage relationships between revenues and certain expense and earnings items:
Percentage of Net Revenues -------------------------- Three Six Months Ended Months Ended June 30 June 30 -------------------- ------------------ 1994 1993 1994 1993 ---- ---- ---- ---- Net revenues 100.0% 100.0% 100.0% 100.0% Costs of products sold 62.6 66.2 60.5 62.5 ----- ----- ----- ----- Gross margin 37.4 33.8 39.5 37.5 Advertising and promotion 18.5 15.4 19.1 14.7 Other selling and administrative 16.5 23.6 17.7 23.8 Research and development 7.4 7.1 7.1 7.0 ----- ----- ----- ----- Earnings (loss) from operations (5.0) (12.3) (4.4) (8.0) Net proceeds from Nintendo award 35.9 - 19.0 - Interest expense (1.7) (1.2) (1.8) (1.3) Other income (expense), net 0.6 0.5 0.4 0.2 Provision for income taxes (0.9) - (0.5) - ------ ------- ------ ------- Net earnings (loss) 28.9% (13.0)% 12.7% (9.1)% ====== ======= ====== =======
1994 Compared to 1993 Net revenues of $33.7 million for the second quarter of 1994 represented a 26% increase from net revenues of $26.8 million for the second quarter of 1993. This sales increase was led by strong demand for the Micro Machines(R) Z-Bots(R)and Biker Mice From Mars (TM) lines. Second quarter sales of Micro Machines and Z-Bots increased by 46% to $20.3 million in 1994 from $13.9 million in 1993. This increase was due primarily to the extensions of the Micro Machines line featuring Star Trek(R)and Star Wars(R)space vehicles along with net revenues from a one-time Z-Bots promotion program. Biker Mice From Mars sales were $9.4 million for the quarter. This product line was introduced in late 1993. Second quarter sales of the Company's Game Genie (TM) products were $0.8 million in 1994 as compared to $5.7 million in the same period in 1993. This decrease reflected the normal maturity cycle for such products. The decreasing sales trend for these products is expected to continue. 6 9 LEWIS GALOOB TOYS, INC., AND SUBSIDIARIES MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS continued Net revenues of $64.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 1994 represented a 18% increase from the same period in 1993. Micro Machines and Z-Bots sales were $34.1 million during the first six months of 1994 as compared to $26.0 million during the same period in 1993. This increase reflects the same factors as noted for the quarter increase. Biker Mice From Mars sales were $18.9 million during the first six months of 1994. Game Genie sales were $1.9 million during the first six months of 1994 compared to $14.9 million for the same period in 1993. The decreasing sales trend for these products is expected to continue. Gross margins were $12.6 million in the second quarter of 1994 compared to $9.1 million in the second quarter of 1993. Approximately $2.3 million of the increase was due to higher sales volume. The balance of the increase, $1.2 million, was due to a higher gross margin rate. The gross margin rate improved to 37.4% in 1994 from 33.8% in 1993. This was mainly due to an increase in domestic sales as a percentage of second quarter net revenues to 68.2% from 52.6% for the same period in 1993. The Company's gross margin on domestic sales is significantly higher than on foreign sales because foreign prices are lower as the customer is responsible for the cost of importing and promoting the products. This was partially offset by the fixed costs included in the cost of sales, primarily the amortization of tooling costs, which were a higher percentage of total revenues as compared to last year. The gross margin percentage increased for the six month period ended June 30 to 39.5% in 1994 from 37.5% in 1993. This increase was due to the same factors described above that resulted in the increase for the second quarter. Advertising and promotion expenses were $6.3 million in the second quarter of 1994 as compared to $4.1 million in 1993. On a six month period ended June 30 basis, these expenses were $12.2 million in 1994 compared to $8.0 million in 1993. Both the three and six month increases were a result of a higher television advertising expense domestically. Advertising and promotion expenses as a percentage of net revenues for the six month period ended June 30 were 19.1% in 1994 compared to 14.7% in 1993. 7 10 LEWIS GALOOB TOYS, INC., AND SUBSIDIARIES MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS continued Other selling and administrative expenses were $5.5 million in the second quarter of 1994 as compared to $6.3 million in 1993. On a six month period ended June 30 basis, these expenses were $11.3 million in 1994 compared to $12.9 million in 1993. Both the three and six month decreases were due mainly to lower sales support costs. Other selling and administrative expenses as a percentage of net revenues for the six month period ended June 30 were 17.7% in 1994 compared to 23.8% in 1993. Research and development were $2.5 million in the second quarter of 1994 as compared to $1.9 million in 1993. On a six month period ended June 30 basis, these expenses were $4.5 million in 1994 compared to $3.8 million in 1993. However, research and development expense as a percentage of net revenues was approximately equal to the prior year. Net proceeds from the Nintendo award represents the receipt, net of associated legal and related expenses, of the Company's share of proceeds from the Nintendo litigation. (See Part II, Item I. Legal Proceedings.) Interest expense increased to $0.6 million in 1994 as compared to $0.3 million in 1993. On a six month period ended June 30 basis, these expenses were $1.1 million in 1994 compared to $0.7 million in 1993. The increase was due mainly to interest expense related to the 8% Convertible Subordinated Debentures (the "8% Debentures") which were issued in November 1993. Other income (expense), net was $0.2 million in the second quarter of 1994 as compared to $0.1 million in 1993. On a six month period ended June 30 basis, these expenses were $0.2 million in 1994 compared to $0.1 million in 1993. The income tax provision reflects the quarterly application of the estimated annual rate based on projected full year earnings and includes the effect of the utilization of net operating loss carryforwards. The earnings per share calculations include the dilutive effect of common stock equivalents, the Company's $17.00 Convertible Exchangeable Preferred Stock (the "Preferred Stock") and the 8% Debentures. These three items were anti-dilutive in prior periods. 8 11 LEWIS GALOOB TOYS, INC., AND SUBSIDIARIES MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS continued The Company's products are produced principally in China which currently is designated with "most favored nation" ("MFN") status by the United States. This allows products imported into the United States from China to be accorded the most favored import duties. The loss of MFN status for China would result in a substantial increase in import duty for the Company's products produced in China and imported into the United States and would materially affect the Company's business. Products shipped to other countries should not be affected. Other toy companies also source product from China and would be affected to various degrees. However, the ultimate impact on the Company would depend on several factors including, but not limited to, the Company's ability to procure alternative manufacturing sources outside of China and its ability to pass resultant cost increases through as product price increases. Liquidity, Financial Resources and Capital Expenditures The Company is party to a Loan Agreement with the Lender which makes available to the Company through March 31, 1995 a line of credit up to $30 million, with provisions to increase to $40 million if an acquisition is made. Borrowing availability is determined by a formula based on qualified assets. The current interest rate is at prime rate plus 2%; the rate will increase by 0.25% if the increase in the credit limit occurs. In consideration for entering into the Loan Agreement, the Company has paid a $375,000 fee. The Company has also agreed to pay periodically an unused line fee of 0.25% and certain management fees. The Loan Agreement contains a restrictive covenant that sets a minimum requirement for shareholders' equity. Dividend payments may only be made with the consent of the Lender. In November 1993, the Company sold in a private placement $14 million in principal amount of the 8% Debentures at par. The interest is to be paid semi-annually at a rate of 8%. The 8% Debentures mature on November 30, 2000 and are convertible into shares of the Company's common stock at $9.26, calculated based upon 115% of the average of the Company's closing common stock price for the ten business days ended November 12, 1993. The Company has used the net proceeds received from the 8% Debentures to invest in the expansion of the production, advertising and promotion of the Company's Biker Mice From Mars line and other product lines. 9 12 LEWIS GALOOB TOYS, INC., AND SUBSIDIARIES MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS continued Working capital was $43.2 million at June 30, 1994 compared to $30.8 million at December 31, 1993 and $22.8 million at June 30, 1993. The ratio of current assets to current liabilities was 3.2 to 1.0 at June 30, 1994 compared to 2.0 to 1.0 at December 31, 1993 and 1.9 to 1.0 at June 30, 1993. Capital expenditures are generally not significant for the Company. The Company's current facilities are considered adequate to support expected future levels of business. On June 10, 1992, the Company announced it would not pay the July 1, 1992 $.425 per share quarterly dividend on its Depositary Shares which represent shares of the Company's Preferred Stock. The Company also did not pay the subsequent dividends. The cumulative dividend, as of July 1, 1994, is nine quarters in arrears, a total amount of $7.0 million. The net earnings (loss) per share calculation includes a provision for the Preferred Stock dividends in arrears. No common stock dividends may be paid unless all Preferred Stock dividend payments are current. As a result of the cumulative dividend being six or more quarters in arrears the number of directors of the Company was subject to being increased by two and the holders of the Preferred Stock had the right to elect such two directors. On July 15, 1994, two new directors were elected by the holders of the Preferred Stock. The Company believes that with its own assets, the results of operations and the Loan Agreement it has adequate liquidity and capital resources to meet its current and anticipated needs. 10 13 PART II Item 1. Legal Proceedings On May 17, 1990, the Company filed a complaint against Nintendo of America Inc. ("Nintendo") seeking a declaratory judgment and injunctive relief in the United States District Court, Northern District of California (the "District Court"). This complaint sought confirmation of the Company's right to market, distribute and sell its Game Genie product. On June 1, 1990, Nintendo filed a complaint in the same District Court alleging copyright and trademark infringement and seeking a preliminary and permanent injunction and unspecified damages. On July 3, 1991, the District Court reversed an earlier preliminary injunction against the Company and ruled that the sale of Game Genie did not infringe on Nintendo's copyrights. Nintendo appealed this ruling through the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals (the "Appeals Court") and ultimately filed a petition for a Writ of Certiorari with the United States Supreme Court. On March 22, 1993, the Supreme Court rejected Nintendo's petition and, in essence, affirmed the District Court ruling. Separately, the Company pursued recovery of damages from Nintendo that resulted from the original issuance of the preliminary injunction. On July 6, 1992, the District Court awarded the Company a $15 million damage judgment against Nintendo, which was the maximum amount that could be awarded in light of the $15 million bond that Nintendo had been required to post in the proceedings. Nintendo appealed this damage award, and on February 17, 1994 the Appeals Court unanimously affirmed the District Court's ruling. Subsequently, the Appeals Court denied and rejected an additional Nintendo petition on March 21, 1994. On April 11, 1994, Nintendo paid the Company $16.1 million representing the full damage award plus interest and related costs. The Company is entitled to approximately $12.2 million of this amount, and the Company's Game Genie licensors are entitled to the remaining $3.9 million. Notwithstanding such payment, on June 20, 1994, Nintendo filed a petition for a Writ of Certiorari with the United States Supreme Court, which asks the Supreme Court to review the damage award on a discretionary basis. The Company believes the Supreme Court will reject Nintendo's petition and that the likelihood of Nintendo ultimately prevailing in its efforts to reverse the damage judgment is remote. Nintendo's original trademark claim and the Company's original anti-trust cross-claim against Nintendo were severed from the copyright claims that were adjudicated on July 3, 1991. No date has been set for hearing these severed claims. 11 14 The Company is involved in other litigation and various legal matters which are being defended and handled in the ordinary course of business. None of these matters is expected to result in outcomes having a material adverse effect on the Company's consolidated financial position. Item 3. Defaults Upon Senior Securities On June 10, 1992, the Company announced it would not pay the July 1, 1992 $.425 per share quarterly dividend on its Depositary Shares which represent shares of the Company's Preferred Stock. The Company also did not pay the subsequent dividends. The cumulative dividend, as of July 1, 1994, is nine quarters in arrears, a total amount of $7.0 million. As a result of the cumulative dividend being six or more quarters in arrears the number of directors of the Company was subject to being increased by two and the holders of the Preferred Stock had the right to elect such two directors. On July 15, 1994, two new directors were elected by the holders of the preferred stock. Item 4. Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders The Company's Annual Meeting of Shareholders was held on June 21, 1994. At the Annual Meeting, the following matters were approved by the shareholders: 1.
