OF AMERICA NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED) NOTE 1 - Financial statements -------------------- In the opinion of the management of Polymer Research Corp. of America (the Company), the accompanying unaudited financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q and do not include all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles. Management believes that the results herein reflect all adjustments which are in the opinion of management necessary to fairly state the results and current financial condition of the Company for the respective periods. These statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company's report filed under cover of Form 10-K. The results of operations for the six month period is not necessarily indicative of the results for an entire year. The balance sheet at December 31, 1995 has been taken from the audited financial statements as of that date. NOTE 2 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies ------------------------------------------ Business Activity - ----------------- The Company is engaged in the research and development of the applications of chemical grafting and sells products resulting from such research. Additionally, the Company produces and sells textile printing inks. Credit Risk - ----------- Financial instruments that potentially subject the company to credit risk include investments in United States Treasury bills notes and other certificates of deposit, government agencies' securities and U.S. Government and New York State mutual bond funds. Future changes in economic conditions may make the investment less valuable. In addition, financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to credit risk also include accounts receivable. Accounts receivable resulting from research or product sales are not collateralized. - -----------------------------------------------------------------------------5 The Company maintains deposits with financial institutions in excess of amounts insured by the FDIC. Pervasivenes of Estimates - ------------------------- The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect 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. Revenue Recognition - ------------------- Revenue from research contracts is recognized upon client approval on performance of a specific stage of the contract and collection. In addition, revenue on products sold are recognized when products are shipped for sale to customers. Inventories - ----------- Inventories are valued at the lower of cost or market, with cost determined using the first-in, first-out method and with market defined as the lower of replacement cost or realizable value. Investment Securities - --------------------- The Company determines the appropriate classification of securities at the time of purchase. If the Company has the intent and the ability at the time of purchase to hold securities until maturity or on a long-term basis, they are classified as investments and carried at amortized historical cost. Securities to be held for indefinite periods of time and not intended to be held to maturity or on a long-term basis are classified as available for sale and carried at fair value. Securities held for indefinite periods of time include securities that management intends to use as part of its asset and liability management strategy and that may be sold in response to changes in interest rates, resultant prepayment risk and other factors related to interest rate and resultant prepayment risk changes. Realized gains and losses on dispositions are based on the net proceeds and the adjusted book value of the securities sold, using the specific identification - -----------------------------------------------------------------------------6 method. Unrealized gains and losses on investment securities available for sale are based on the difference between book value and fair value of each security. These gains and losses are credited or charged to shareholders' equity, whereas realized gains and losses flow through the Company's yearly operations. Property and Equipment - ---------------------- Property and equipment is stated at cost. The costs of additions and betterments are capitalized and expenditures for repairs and maintenance are expensed in the period incurred. When items of property and equipment are sold or retired, the related costs and accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts and any gain or loss is included in income. The company capitalizes leased equipment where the terms of the lease result in the transfer to the Company of substantially all of the benefits and risks of ownership of the equipment. Depreciation and amortization of property and equipment is provided utilizing the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the respective assets as follows: Transportation equipment 3 to 5 years Machinery and equipment 5 years Furniture and fixtures 5 to 10 years Building and improvements 40 years Office equipment under capital leases 5 years Deferred Financing Costs - ------------------------ Costs incurred in obtaining the mortgage discussed below have been capitalized and are being amortized over the term of the related obligation utilizing the straight-line method. Income Taxes - ------------ The Company accounts for it's income taxes utilizing Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 109 "Accounting for Income Taxes" which requires that the Company follow the liability method of accounting for income taxes. The liability method provides that deferred tax assets and liabilities are recorded based on the difference between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts for financial reporting purposes, referred to as "temporary differences." - -----------------------------------------------------------------------------7 Net Earnings Per Share - ---------------------- Earnings per share are computed based upon the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during each year. 1995 computations have been restated to reflect the stock dividend in February of 1996 for comparison purposes. Profit Sharing Plan - ------------------- Effective January 1, 1990, the Company adopted a qualified non-contributory profit sharing plan. The plan provides its eligible employees with a source of retirement income, as well as provide assistance in other circumstances such as death or disability. Eligible employees must meet two requirements to become participants; attainment of age 21 and completion of one year of service with the Company. Employer contributions are determined, if any, at the Board of director's discretion. A percentage of the benefits vest after three years of qualifying service. NOTE 3 - Provision for Income Taxes (First six months) -------------------------- 1996 1995 --------- --------- Federal $ 91,000 $ 121,000 State and local 62,500 84,000 --------- --------- Total $ 153,500 $ 205,000 ========= ========= NOTE 4 - Mortgage Liability ------------------ The Company is obligated to pay a mortgage note payable in equal monthly instalments of $23,605 including interest at 10.5% per annum through June, 2000, secured by the related building. Such mortgage is being amortized using a 25 year amortization. The entire unpaid principal balance is due in a balloon payment of $2,134,053 on June 1, 2000. NOTE 5 - Stock Dividend -------------- On March 15, 1996 the Company declared a 10% stock dividend to shareholders, paid March 29, 1996. The transaction was valued based upon the closing market price of the Company's stock on March 15, 1996, which was $4.00 per share. Retained earnings was charged for $ 541,692 as a result of the issuance of 135,423 shares. - -----------------------------------------------------------------------------8 POLYMER RESEARCH CORP. OF AMERICA ITEM 2 - MANAGEMENTS DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS CAPITAL RESOURCES AND LIQUIDITY - ------------------------------- Cash, Investments, and Investment securities have decreased collectively by a $173,120 since December 31, 1995 as a result of income tax and expense prepayments as well as a decrease in accrued expenses. Cash is generated by and used by the Company through its operations. Neither the issuance of stock nor the acquisition of debt was in 1995, nor expected to be in 1996, sources of cash for use in operations. The rate of current assets to current liabilities at June 30, 1996 increased to 7.63 to 1.0 as compared to 4.26 to 1.0 at December 31, 1995. The increase is a result of net earnings in 1996 and the decrease in deferred revenue. Based on the above, the Company's cash, investment, and investment securities position at June 30, 1996 is deemed sufficient to cover any unforeseen sales downturn in the short term as it is equal to approximately nine months selling, general, and administrative expenses. Over both the long and short term, liquidity will be a direct result of sales and related net earnings. B. RESULTS OF OPERATIONS Three months ended June 30, 1996 v. 1995 Net revenues for the second quarter of 1996 were $ 1,359,253 a decrease of $10,000 (.007%) compared to the second quarter of 1995. Product sales increased 35% in the second quarter of 1996 over 1995, principally due to increased demand from overseas customers. The cost of revenues in research decreased from 43% in the second quarter of 1995 to 24% in same quarter of 1996 due to a reallocation of salaries which were previously classified as Research Cost of Sales being re-allocated to Selling, General, and Administrative expenses. Costs of product sales increased from 73% in the second quarter of 1995 to 88% in the same quarter of 1996 principally as a result of increased labor due to additional employees and higher wages. - -----------------------------------------------------------------------------9 Selling, general, and administrative expenses increased as a percentage of sales from 31% for the second quarter of 1995 to 50% for the comparable quarter of 1996.

Research sales remained approximately the same in the first half of 1996 as compared to 1995. The lack of change in research sales is attributable to similar demand for research based on an unchanged sales effort. Product sales increased 22% in the first half of 1996 over 1995. Production revenue increased due to increased demand from overseas customers. The cost of revenues in research decreased from 45% in the first half of 1995 to 26% in the first half of 1996 due to a reallocation of salaries which were previously classified as Research Cost of Sales being re-allocated to Selling, General, and Administrative expenses. Costs of product sales increased from 75% in the first half of 1995 to 84% in the first half of 1996 principally as a result of increased labor related to additonal employees and higher wages. Selling, general, and administrative expenses increased as a percentage of sales from 31% for the first half of 1995 to 49% for the first half of 1996. Such increase is primarily the result of reallocation of salaries which were previously classified as Research Cost of Sales being re-allocated to Selling, General, and Administrative expenses. costs. Net income decreased from $ 211,737 (8% of sales) in 1995 to $ 159,398 (6% of sales) in 1996 due to increased utilities, interest, and labor related to additional emplyees and higher wages. - ---------------------------------------------------------------------------10 PART II - OTHER INFORMATION ITEM 1 - Legal Proceedings: None - ------ ITEM 2 - Changes in Securities: - ------ On March 15, 1996 the Company declared a 10% stock dividend to shareholders, paid March 29, 1996.
