The accompanying notes are an integral part of these consolidated financial statements. 7 BOSTON ACOUSTICS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (1) BASIS OF PRESENTATION The unaudited consolidated financial statements included herein have been prepared by the Company, without audit, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and include, in the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring adjustments) necessary for a fair presentation of interim period results. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. The Company believes, however, that its disclosures are adequate to make the information presented not misleading. The results for the three and six-month periods ended September 27, 1997 are not necessarily indicative of results to be expected for the full fiscal year. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company's Annual Report included in its Form 10-K for fiscal year ended March 29, 1997. (2) INVENTORIES Inventories are stated at the lower of cost (first-in, first-out) or market and consist of the following:
MARCH 29, 1997 SEPTEMBER 27,1997 -------------- ----------------- Raw materials and work-in process............................................. $ 5,889,305 $ 6,203,727 Finished goods................................................................ 3,651,452 7,148,680 -------------- ----------------- $ 9,540,757 $ 13,352,407 -------------- ----------------- -------------- -----------------
Work-in-process and finished goods inventories consist of materials, labor and manufacturing overhead. (3) NET INCOME PER COMMON SHARE Net income per common share for the three-month and six-month periods ended September 27, 1997 are based upon the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding and the dilutive effect of common stock equivalents (stock options). Fully diluted earnings per share have not been presented as the amounts would not differ significantly from primary earnings per share. Net income per common share for the three-month and six-month periods ended September 28, 1996 are based upon the weighted average number of common shares outstanding. Common stock equivalents (stock options) were not considered in the calculation of net income per share as their effect was not significant. On March 31, 1997, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued SFAS No. 128, Earnings per Share. SFAS No. 128 establishes standards for computing and presenting earnings per share and applies to entities with publicly held common stock or potential common stock. SFAS No. 128 is effective for annual and interim periods ending after December 15, 1997, and early adoption is not permitted. When adopted by the Company, SFAS No. 128 will require restatement of prior year's earnings per share. The Company believes that the adoption of SFAS No. 128 will not have a material effect on its financial statements. 8 (4) REDEMPTION OF COMMON STOCK AND LINE OF CREDIT On June 13, 1997, the Company repurchased an aggregate of 898,201 shares of its common stock from the estates of its co-founder, Francis L. Reed, and his wife, Dorothea T. Reed. The shares were repurchased at $26 5/8 per share or a total of approximately $23,915,000. Funds to complete the repurchase were obtained from an unsecured $25 million revolvoing line of credit agreement with a bank. At September 27, 1997 the Company had drawn down approximately $18.3 million on this line of credit. (5) STOCK OPTIONS The following is a summary of stock option activity for the six months ended September 27, 1997:

9 MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS RESULTS OF OPERATIONS The following table sets forth the results of operations for the three-month and six-month periods ended September 28, 1996 and September 27, 1997 expressed as percentages of net sales.

Net sales increased 49 percent, from approximately $12,199,000 during the second quarter of fiscal 1997 to approximately $18,136,000 during the second quarter of fiscal 1998. For the six months ended September 27, 1997 net sales increased approximately 31% from $23,251,000 to approximately $30,551,000. The overall sales increase was primarily due OEM sales of our new MicroMedia-TM- speaker system to Gateway 2000, Inc., and in addition includes sales growth in our international business. 10 The Company's gross margin for the three-month and six-month periods ended September 27, 1997 decreased as a percentage of net sales due primarily to a shift in the sales mix to loudspeaker models with slightly lower margins, particularly OEM sales of our multimedia speaker systems. Total operating expenses increased in absolute dollars but decreased as a percentage of net sales during both the three-month and six-month periods ended September 27, 1997. Selling and marketing expenses have increased in absolute dollars primarily due to increased salaries and benefits relating to additional personnel, as well as increased advertising and literature costs associated with new product introductions of the Snell Acoustics subsidiary. General and administrative expenses have increased in absolute dollars for both the three-month and six-month periods due primarily to costs associated with the operating results of the Snell subsidiary. Engineering and development expenses for the three-month period decreased in absolute dollars while remaining relatively stable for the six-month period ended September 27, 1997 primarily due to lower product development expenses compared to the same periods a year ago. Interest income of a year ago was replaced by net interest expense during the three-month and six-month periods ended September 27, 1997 primarily due to the utilization of working capital and borrowings under the Company's line of credit in conjunction with the common stock repurchase in June 1997. The Company's effective income tax rate increased from 35% for both the three-month and six-month periods ended September 28, 1996 to 38% and 37.5% for the three-month period and the six-month period ended September 27, 1997, respectively. The increase is primarily due to the decrease in tax-free instruments held by the Company which resulted in a reduction of tax benefits derived by the Company's Massachusetts securities corporation. Net income for the second quarter increased 64%, from approximately $1,203,000 in fiscal 1997 to $1,976,000 in fiscal 1998 while earnings per share increased from $.28 to $.58 per share. Net income for the six-month period ended September 27, 1997 increased 23% from approximately $2,523,000 in fiscal 1997 to approximately $3,111,000 in fiscal 1998, while earnings per share for the six-month period increased from $.58 to $.83 per share. The increase in net income for the three and six-month periods ended September 27, 1997 is primarily the result of the increased sales growth, which was offset by the decrease in interest income and the operating loss by the Snell subsidiary included in the consolidated results of operations. The Company has received initial orders pursuant to its contract with Gateway 2000, Inc., and the Company expects to receive, under the minimum purchase terms of the contract, significant additional orders from Gateway. Since the contract does not contain a schedule with which Gateway must comply in placing orders, orders by Gateway may fluctuate significantly from quarter to quarter over the term of the contract. Assuming Gateway places orders in the quantity required under the contract by March 1998, a substantial portion of the Company's revenues for the current fiscal year is expected to be derived from its contract with Gateway. LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES As of September 27, 1997 the Company's working capital was approximately $20,279,000. The Company's cash and cash equivalents were approximately $980,000, and short-term investments were approximately $676,000. The Company's cash and cash equivalents at September 27, 1997 decreased by approximately $3,957,000 from March 29, 1997 primarily as a result of the repurchase of common stock during June 1997 and the increase in inventory and accounts receivable relating to the Company's OEM business. The Company has two lines of credit with two banking institutions totaling $26,500,000. At September 27, 1997 the Company had borrowings totaling $18,300,000 under one line of credit. The Company believes that its resources are adequate to meet its requirements for working capital and capital expenditures through the next twelve months. 11 Cautionary Statements The Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 contains certain safe harbors regarding forward-looking statements. From time to time, information provided by the Company or statements made by its directors, officers, or employees may contain "forward-looking" information which involve risk and uncertainties. Any statements in this report that are not statements of historical fact are forward-looking statements (including, but not limited to, statements concerning the characteristics and growth of the Company's market and customers, the Company's objectives and plans for future operations, possible acquisitions, and the Company's expected liquidity and capital resources). Such forward-looking statements are based on a number of assumptions and involve a number of risks and uncertainties, and accordingly, actual results could differ materially. Factors that may cause such differences include, but are not limited to: the continued and future acceptance of the Company's products, the rate of growth in the audio industry; the presence of competitors with greater technical marketing and financial resources; the Company's ability to promptly and effectively respond to technological change to meet evolving consumer demands; capacity and supply constraints or difficulties; and the Company's ability to successfully integrate new operations. For a further discussion of these and other significant factors to consider in connection with forward-looking statements concerning the Company, reference is made to Exhibit 99 of the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for fiscal year March 30, 1996. 12 PART II: OTHER INFORMATION ITEM 1.
