ACQUISITION OR DISPOSITION OF ASSETS. (a) On September 27, 1996 the Registrant ("ValueVision"), through its wholly-owned subsidiary, ValueVision Direct Marketing Company, Inc., a Minnesota corporation, closed on the acquisition of substantially all of the assets of Montgomery Ward Direct, L.P., a Delaware limited partnership, the four-year-old catalog business of Montgomery Ward & Co., Incorporated ("Montgomery Ward"). The effective date of the transaction was July 27, 1996. Certain wholly-owned subsidiaries of Montgomery Ward are the sole partners of Montgomery Ward Direct, L.P. ValueVision issued 1,484,993 new vested warrants, with an exercise price of $0.01 per share, to Montgomery Ward and assumed certain liabilities as full consideration for the acquisition of Montgomery Ward Direct. ValueVision received approximately $4.7 million in net assets of Montgomery Ward Direct, including cash, inventory, furniture, fixtures and equipment, and accounts receivable. Concurrently with such acquisition, ValueVision and Montgomery Ward entered into amended operating, license and other agreements which grant ValueVision the right to use the Montgomery Ward Direct(sm) service mark and extend the use of certain other service marks, expand Montgomery Ward's advertising support and increase ValueVision's sales promotion rights. ValueVision issued 1,484,467 new vested warrants exercisable at $0.01 per share to Montgomery Ward in exchange for 18,000,000 unvested ValueVision warrants from a grant in August 1995 of 25,000,000 warrants exercisable at prices ranging from $7.00 to $17.00. On September 28, 1996, ValueVision issued an additional 2,200,000 new vested warrants, with an exercise price of $0.01 per share, to Montgomery Ward in exchange for the remaining 7,000,000 vested ValueVision warrants granted in August 1995, which had exercise prices ranging from $6.50 to $6.75. The terms of the asset acquisition and the establishment of the purchase price were arrived at as a result of arm's length negotiations between ValueVision management and the management of Montgomery Ward. Montgomery Ward owns 1,280,000 shares of ValueVision Common Stock and an aggregate of 5,169,460 vested warrants to acquire shares of ValueVision Common Stock at an exercise price of $0.01 per share. John Workman, an executive officer of Montgomery Ward, is a director of ValueVision. (b) The assets acquired had been used by Montgomery Ward in direct mail marketing operations. ValueVision intends to incorporate such assets into its telemarketing and fulfillment operations to support the growth of its own direct mail business. ITEM 7.

MONTGOMERY WARD DIRECT L.P. Notes to Financial Statements December 29, 1995 and December 30, 1994 (Including Data Applicable to Unaudited Periods) (In Thousands) 1. DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS AND FUNDING OF OPERATIONS: Montgomery Ward Direct L.P. (MWD or the Company) is a Delaware limited partnership of affiliates of Fingerhut Companies, Inc. (Fingerhut) and Montgomery Ward & Co., Incorporated (Montgomery Ward). MWD is a direct marketer of retail consumer products through the mailing of specialty and general merchandise catalogs. The catalogs are targeted mainly to Montgomery Ward credit card account holders. Fingerhut's distribution facilities and computer systems are used to operate the business. The Company purchases products independently from suppliers but relies on vendor relationships and terms, in many instances, that have been developed by its partners. The Company's fiscal year is the 52-53-week period ending on the Friday closest to the calendar year-end. Operations for fiscal 1995 and 1994 include 52 weeks. Since inception, the Company has been financed through cash flow from operations, the initial funding by the partners and operating loans from the partners during peak inventory seasons. Loans outstanding as of the end of 1995 were $6,000 (see Note 5). There were no loans outstanding as of the end of 1994. 2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES: INTERIM FINANCIAL STATEMENTS The balance sheet as of July 26, 1996 and the related statements of operations, changes in partners' investment (deficit) and cash flows for the seven-month periods ended July 26, 1996 and July 28, 1995 are unaudited. However, in the opinion of management, these interim financial statements include all adjustments (consisting of only normal recurring adjustments) which are necessary for the fair presentation of the results for the interim periods presented. The results of operations for the unaudited seven-month period ended July 26, 1996 are not necessarily indicative of the results which may be expected of the entire 1996 fiscal year. REVENUE RECOGNITION The Company recognizes sales and the related cost of sales at the time products are shipped to the customer. Collections for unshipped orders are reflected as a component of accrued liabilities in the accompanying balance sheets. The Company allows for merchandise returns at the customer's discretion. There is no stated time limit for acceptance of returns. Returns are estimated and provided for at the time of sale based on historical experience. A reserve for returns approximating related gross profit on expected returns is included in accrued liabilities. Shipping and handling fees collected from customers are recognized as product is shipped and are offset against actual shipping expenses as a component of selling, general and administrative expenses. USE OF ESTIMATES The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of 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. SYNDICATION ARRANGEMENTS The Company has contracted with various other mail-order catalogers to prepare and mail catalogs to MWD customers. This occurs with catalogs that have noncompetitive offers with MWD's base media, in the interest of giving the MWD customer a wide range of products to choose from. The Company collects negotiated fees for resulting sales by the catalogers, and recognized other income of $181, $485, $535 and $309 as a result of these arrangements for the seven months ended July 26, 1996, and for fiscal years 1995, 1994 and 1993, respectively. These amounts are classified as a component of other expense (income) in the accompanying statements of operations. CASH AND TEMPORARY INVESTMENTS Cash and temporary investments consist principally of money market instruments with original maturities of three months or less. MERCHANDISE INVENTORIES Merchandise inventories are stated at the lower of cost, determined on a first-in, first-out basis, or net realizable value. PROMOTIONAL MATERIAL AND ADVERTISING COSTS Print, paper, postage, separations and other advertising-related costs associated directly with the catalog formation are capitalized and amortized over the period(s) in which the related revenues are generated, generally three months from the date the catalog is mailed. DEPRECIATION AND AMORTIZATION For financial reporting purposes, the Company provides for depreciation using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets. Leasehold improvements are amortized over the shorter of the lease period or the useful life of the related asset. INCOME TAXES As a partnership, the taxable income or loss of MWD is allocated to its general partners. Accordingly, the Company has not recorded a provision for income taxes. 3. PROPERTY, EQUIPMENT AND LEASEHOLD IMPROVEMENTS: Property, equipment and leasehold improvements are recorded at cost (less accumulated depreciation and amortization) and are composed of the following:
July 26, December 29, December 30, 1996 1995 1994 ------- ------- ------- Furniture and fixtures $ 769 $ 769 $ 769 Leasehold improvements 371 371 371 Computer equipment and software 362 416 436 Machinery and equipment 177 177 177 Accumulated depreciation and amortization (1,122) (1,032) (534) ------- ------- ------- $ 557 $ 701 $ 1,219 ======= ======= ======= 4. ACCRUED LIABILITIES: Accrued liabilities consist of the following: July 26, December 29, December 30, 1996 1995 1994 ------- ------- ------- Merchandise returns $ 1,499 $ 3,305 $ 5,008 Promotional material 1,182 537 3,095 Customer refunds 11 604 765 Telephone charges 159 445 354 Syndication charges 386 218 -- Deferred revenue 160 101 228 Other 635 632 477 ------- ------- ------- $ 4,032 $ 5,842 $ 9,927 ======= ======= =======
5. RELATED-PARTY TRANSACTIONS: In accordance with terms of the partnership agreement, the Company purchases goods and services from Fingerhut, including inventory. This allows the Company to operate with minimal capital investment. Fingerhut supplies paper purchasing, order processing, fulfillment, customer service, systems support, insurance, legal and other operational services and facilities. Purchases from Fingerhut under these agreements aggregated $33,265, $33,404 and $19,057 during 1995, 1994 and 1993, respectively. The Company began renting its customer list to certain mail-order businesses in the fourth quarter of 1993. This service is managed by Fingerhut. Most customers of the Company utilize the Montgomery Ward revolving charge plan to pay for purchases. The Company is licensed to use the plan and sells all related receivables, without recourse, to Montgomery Ward. Balances due the Company under this arrangement totaled $465 and $1,127 at December 29, 1995 and December 30, 1994, respectively, and are included in accounts receivable in the accompanying balance sheets. The Company is obligated to pay its pro rata share of servicing support fees that Montgomery Ward is required to pay. There were no such charges to MWD in 1995, 1994 or 1993. The Company was charged $1,281, $1,249 and $475 by Montgomery Ward to cover related bad debt losses during 1995, 1994 and 1993, respectively. Overstock apparel inventory is sold to Montgomery Ward Outlet stores at the Company's cost. The Company is charged back by the outlet stores for actual costs to sell product which include labor, markdowns and incidental store costs. These charge-backs totaled $142, $185 and $289 in 1995, 1994 and 1993. MWD has notes payable to its partners as of December 29, 1995 totaling $6,000. These notes bear interest at prime and are payable on demand. 6. FINANCING: The Company has a letter-of-credit agreement which provides for a $10,000 credit line with Norwest Bank Minnesota, National Association. As of December 29, 1995 and December 30, 1994, letters of credit of $1,592 and $6,105, respectively, were outstanding under the line, generally related to purchases of inventory from foreign suppliers. 7. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES: LEASES The Company leases its administrative office facility under a renewable lease agreement. The initial lease term expires in 1997. During 1994, the Company expanded into additional space as part of a master lease arrangement. The Company obtained a letter of credit payable to the lessor as required under this agreement. The amount required decreases over the life of the lease and was $134 and $219 at December 29, 1995 and December 30, 1994, respectively. Related lease expense for 1995, 1994 and 1993 was $238, $219 and $189, respectively. Future minimum lease payments for the years ending December 31 are as follows: 1996 $328 1997 137 USE TAX ON SALES The Company's principal direct marketing operations are conducted from Minnesota. It also distributes inventory out of a facility in Tennessee. State taxes are collected solely from customers who reside in those two states. Several states have taken initiatives to impose sales tax collection and remittance obligations on companies which sell into their jurisdictions by means of direct mail or shipment. The Company believes it is not obligated for the collection and remittance of sales tax in those circumstances and that such state initiatives will not be sustained. RETIREMENT PLAN AND DEFERRED COMPENSATION The Company has a 401(k) plan for which all associates are eligible. The 401(k) plan provides for a matching Company contribution and immediate vesting to encourage participation. The Company charged $94, $103 and $73 to expense in 1995, 1994 and 1993, respectively, for contributions to the plan. A deferred compensation plan was also established in order to attract and retain former Fingerhut employees to key positions. The Company charged $71, $107 and $66 to expense in 1995, 1994 and 1993, respectively, for contributions to this plan. LITIGATION In the normal course of business, the Company is involved in various legal proceedings. In the opinion of management, any liability resulting from such proceedings would not have a material adverse effect on the Company's financial position or results of operations. 8. RESTRUCTURING CHARGES: In February 1995, MWD began to phase out its apparel line. Apparel net sales for 1994 were approximately $16,000 with a gross margin of 39%. Termination and other exit costs of $2,182 were charged to 1995 operations. Included in these costs are certain lease payments referred to in Note 7. 9. SALE OF NET ASSETS OF PARTNERSHIP: In July 1996, the Company entered into an agreement with ValueVision International, Inc. (ValueVision) for the acquisition of the net assets of the Company, as defined. In connection with this transaction, the partners agreed to forgive the Company's notes payable to the partners and accrued interest, totaling $6,382. In addition, Fingerhut contributed $4,000 in capital to MWD, in consideration for its withdrawal from the partnership. ValueVision assumed effective control of MWD as of July 27, 1996.
