D. Risk Factors

Among the factors that have a direct effect on the results of operations and financial condition of DSG International Limited (the “Company”) are the following:

1. Raw Material Cost

The Company has seen a significant price increase, in the range of 5% to 7%, among the major raw materials in 2003. It is anticipated that these raw material costs will continue to increase in 2004, particularly the wood pulp, super absorbent polymer and polypropylene, at the same pace as 2003. The operating results in all of our segments were affected adversely by this factor. Most raw materials used by the Company are commodities which are subject to price volatility caused by many unpredictable factors. In addition to maintaining multiple sourcing, the Company has entered into various

- 1 -

short-term supplying contracts to effectively manage the volatility on inventory supply and the pricing. While the Company continues to implement programs to drive the cost out, it is difficult to predict that these measures are adequate to offset the raw material increases in the future.

2. Branded Product Innovation

Patents and other intellectual property rights are an important competitive factor in the disposable diaper market, mostly because of the industry emphasis in product innovations. Patents held by the main competitors could severely limit the Company’s ability to keep up with branded product innovations, by prohibiting the Company from marketing product with comparable features.

3. Competition

The market position of the Company’s main competitors, The Procter & Gamble Company (“P&G”) and Kimberly-Clark Corporation (“KC”), relative to the Company varies from one geographic area to another; but due to their substantial financial, technical, marketing, manufacturing, logistics and personnel resources, both of these major manufacturers have the ability to exert significant influence in price and volumes, and gain substantial market share in any of their marketing areas. They have heavily promoted diapers in the multi-pack configuration. These packages offer a lower unit price than previously available to the retailer and consumer. It is possible that as a consequence of this strategy, in those geographic markets in which the main competitors have adopted it, the Company may realize lower selling prices and/or lower sales volume. As a result, the intense competition in the markets may result in pricing pressure, lower sales and reduced margins. The Company’s business and operating results could be materially and adversely affect by these continuing competitive pressures and the Company may be unable to compete successfully with these main competitors in the future.

4. Increased Cost

On May 21, 2001, the Company entered into an agreement with P&G to settle any potential liability of the Company which may have existed with respect to any past infringement on P&G patents prior to January 1, 2001 and to agree on royalty payments relating to sales on certain of the Company’s products in the Asian Pacific and Australian region after December 31, 2000. A similar agreement with P&G was entered into in 1998 relating to the North American region that provides for payments of royalty fees based on a percentage of certain products sold after December 31, 1997 within the North American region.

On September 12, 2003, the Company entered into another agreement with P&G to resolve any possible dispute between the parties related to a patent. This agreement grants a royalty bearing non-exclusive rights to use certain features for certain products produced by the Company’s North American region. The royalty fee is calculated based on a percentage of the products sold and recorded as selling, general and administrative expenses in 2003.

The Company believes that the royalty being charged by P&G under its respective license agreements is approximately the same royalty that will be paid by its major competitors for similar patent rights.

- 2 -

5. Increased Financial Leverage

The Company’s short and long-term debts were $36.0 million as of December 31, 2003, an increase of $11.7 million from $24.3 million last year. The debts are bearing various interest rates as of December 31, 2003 ranging from 2.1875% to 7.25%. The Company still has significant principal and interest obligations resulting from the acquisition of the North American assets of Drypers Corporation. The existing level of the Company’s financial leverage could adversely affect the Company’s ability to obtain additional financing for working capital, acquisitions or other purposes and could make the Company more vulnerable to economic crisis in the different geographical markets and to competitive pressures from its main competitors.

As a substantial portion of the Company’s available cash from operations will have to be applied to meet debt service requirements, the Company’s liquidity could be affected as well as its ability to fund capital expenditures. Notwithstanding, the Company believes that its cash flow from operations and other sources of liquidity will be adequate to meet its requirements for working capital, capital expenditures, interest payment and scheduled principal payment for the foreseeable future. However, if the Company is unable to generate sufficient cash flow from operations in the future, it may be required to refinance all or a portion of its existing debt or obtain additional financing. There is no assurance that this additional financing could be obtained. If financing is obtainable, there is no guarantee it could be obtained on terms favorable to the Company.

6. Litigation Risk

As the Company operates in an industry in which patents are numerous and are enforced vigorously, the Company and its subsidiaries are from time to time involved in legal matters.

The Company is currently not defending itself in any significant litigation matters. Although it cannot be certain, in management’s opinion, none of the legal proceedings in which the Company is currently involved, individually or in the aggregate, is expected to have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial condition or results of operation.

7. Worldwide Political, Economic, Legal and Other Uncertainties

The Company is incorporated in the British Virgin Islands and has operating subsidiaries incorporated in Hong Kong, the United States, The United Kingdom, the Peoples’ Republic of China (“PRC”), Thailand, Indonesia and Malaysia. The Company manufactures and distributes baby diapers, training pants and adult incontinence products in North America, Europe, Greater China and South East Asia regions. The global operations may render the Company subject to political, economic risks and legal uncertainties, including the changes in economic and political conditions and government policies; wars, civil unrest, acts of terrorism and other conflicts; changes in tariffs, trade restriction, trade agreements and taxation and limitation of repatriation of funds due to foreign exchange controls. The occurrence or consequences of any of the aforesaid

- 3 -

factors may restrict the Company’s ability to operate in the affected region and decrease the profitability of the Company’s operations in that region.

Item 4. Information on the Company.

A. History and Development of the Company

DSG International Limited, established in Hong Kong in 1973, is one of the world’s leading companies specializing in manufacturing disposable baby diapers, training pants and adult incontinence products, with over thirty years of experience in this industry. The Company now operates nine manufacturing facilities in North America, Asia and Europe with extensive distribution activities around the world.

In the 10-year span, from 1984 to 1994, the Company had expanded its operations into the United States of America, United Kingdom, Australia, Singapore, Switzerland, Canada, Thailand, and China. In addition, the Company successfully completed the initial public offering in the U.S. of its Ordinary Share listed under the NASDAQ National Market System in 1992.

In April 1995, the Company’s management group, led by the Chairman, Brandon Wang, and two other equity investors proposed a going private transaction to which the holders of all the outstanding shares of the Company held by the public would receive $19 per share. On May 26, 1995, after a review by a Special Committee of independent directors appointed to consider and advise on the proposal, the Board of Directors approved the going private transaction at a price of $19.25 per share and authorized the Company to enter into a merger agreement with corporations that had been formed by the management group. On July 7, 1995 the merger agreement that had been entered into as of May 26, 1995 to effect the going private transaction was terminated because there was no reasonable possibility that certain conditions of the merger agreement could be satisfied within the time period stipulated in the agreement as there was no reasonable prospect that financing would be available on satisfactory terms within such time period.

In March 2001, the Company acquired all the U.S. assets including the “DRYPERS®” brand name and the manufacturing facilities in Marion, Ohio and Vancouver, Washington of a major U.S. disposable baby diaper manufacturer which was in bankruptcy, and was thus able to substantially expand its sales in the U.S.

On November 11, 2002, the Company entered into a definitive agreement to sell its Australian subsidiaries and the sale was completed on December 6, 2002.

In October 2002, the Company purchased land in an industrial zone in Saraburi, Thailand of approximately 240,000 square feet in order to expand the production capacity in Thailand. In December 2002, the Company set up a wholly owned subsidiary in Shanghai, PRC to manufacture disposable baby diapers products.

In April 2003, the Company entered into a joint venture agreement with two Japanese partners to establish a

- 4 -

manufacturing facility in Shanghai, PRC to manufacture certain raw material for disposable diapers products. The Company owns a 75% interest in the joint venture company. In September 2003, the Company closed a dormant subsidiary in Canada.

In June 2004, the Company announced the reopening of the Duluth, Georgia facility as a distribution center to reinforce logistic capabilities by having a Southeastern U.S. location. At the same time the Company announced the planned August 2004 closure of the Oconto Falls, Wisconsin adult incontinence facility. This decision is a key part of the Company’s strategic plans for 2004 to de-emphasize the Institutional Market sector of the U.S. adult incontinence business. The Company will continue to focus on and build its successful business in the Retail Market sector. The manufacturing of the adult incontinence products will be consolidated into the Marion, Ohio plant where the Company can benefit from the economy of scale and combined shipments of both baby and adult products to the same retail customers.

DSG International Limited is incorporated in the British Virgin Islands under the International Business Companies Act of 1984 and has its principal executive office at 17/F Watson Centre, 16-22 Kung Yip Street, Kwai Chung, Hong Kong. Its telephone number is (852) 2484-4820.

Total	$	24,326,000	$	5,569,000	$	1,596,000

The Company’s plan for major capital expenditure in 2004 included $2.7 million and $2.5 million for the construction of the Thailand and Shanghai joint venture manufacturing facilities, respectively, and $9.0 million for the construction of manufacturing equipment for the Shanghai, PRC joint venture investment. The financing for these expenditures will be partially funded by banking facilities and partially funded by internally generated cash from operations.

The Company’s plans for capital expenditures are subject to changes from time to time and could result from, among other things, the consummation of any significant amount of additional acquisition or investment opportunities, which the Company is constantly exploring.

B. Business Overview

1. General

The Company manufactures and markets disposable baby diapers, training pants and adult incontinence products primarily under its own brand names, which include “DRYPERS®”, “FITTI®”, “PET PET®”, “COSIFITS®”, “BABY LOVE®”, “BABYJOY®”, “DISPO 123^™”, “HANDY^™”, “CERTAINTY®” and “MERIT®”. The “DRYPERS®” brand was acquired in March 2001. The Company also manufactures and markets disposable baby diapers, adult incontinence and training pants products under private labels. The Company’s products are sold internationally, with its nine manufacturing facilities being in Hong Kong, the United States, the United Kingdom, the People’s Republic of China (“PRC”), Thailand, Indonesia and Malaysia.

The Company manufactures and distributes private label and branded disposable baby diapers, adult incontinence products, training pants and youth pants for the North American markets with its operations in Marion, Ohio and Vancouver, Washington. With a good regional presence, the Company’s “FITTI®” brand is a strong selling brand of disposable baby diapers and training pants in key markets. The Company’s “DRYPERS®” brand is another regional brand of disposable baby diapers and training pants products in the North American market. The Company’s sales in adult incontinence products, training pants and youth pants have grown in their significance in the Company’s North American market.

In the PRC, the Company estimates that the consumer market penetration rate of disposable baby diapers is around 4% and the market size is growing at a rate of 15% per annum. The Company’s leading brands, “FITTI®” and “PET PET®”, are well established in most of the major cities including Shenzhen, Guangzhou, Shanghai and Beijing; and the Company’s economy brands, “FITTI® Basic” and “BABY LOVE®”, expanded rapidly in the eastern, northeastern, western and central part of the PRC. By using the premium “FITTI®” and economy “FITTI® Basic” brands, the Company delivers a clear brand icon to the consumers in the PRC and strengthens the baby disposable diapers market penetration nationwide in the PRC. The Company estimates that it holds the third position in overall market share among its competitors in the PRC. In the Guangdong province, the major southern province of the PRC, the Company has a well-established sales and distribution network that extends throughout the province and cities and the Company believes that it is the market leader in the province, with around 35% market share. In the northern part of the PRC, the Company’s sales operation has built up direct sales distribution channels in the Beijing and Tianjin markets and expanded its wholesale network into other northern and northeastern provinces such as Shandong, Shanxi, Hebei, Shaanxi, Jilin and Liaoning as well as various cities. In the eastern part of the PRC such as Fujian, Zhejiang, Jiangsu provinces, the Company established a strong sales and distribution network by working with a number of reputable territorial wholesalers. Management of the Company is optimistic about the growth opportunity in these provinces and cities. In Shanghai Municipal, the Company developed its direct sales and distribution network with major foreign investor-owned hypermarkets and state-owned supermarket chains. The Company’s sales office in Shanghai also functions as a nationwide sales and marketing centre to focus and keep pace with the market development in the PRC. In addition, the Company has two sales offices in Wuhan and Chengdu to reinforce the distribution efforts in the Central and Western part of the PRC. Overall, the Company has

- 6 -

expanded its sales and distribution networks in 28 provinces, 3 municipals and over 200 cities in the PRC through its direct sales and distribution team and engagement of either distributors or wholesalers. The Company continues its effort in exploring the potential of other PRC markets. In 2003, the Hong Kong disposable diaper market declined due to the outbreak of Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome (“SARS”), low birth rate and a weak economy; however, the Company maintained its second place position in the Hong Kong market with an estimated market share of 25%.

The SARS also affected the South East Asian regions in 2003; the total sales in 2003 were maintained at levels consistent with 2002. Although the market condition in Thailand is difficult due to intense price competition, the Company’s “BABY LOVE®” and “FITTI® Basic” brands gained additional market share with volume growth by 4% in 2003 over 2002. In other markets such as Malaysia, Indonesia and Singapore, the Company faced severe price competition in both premium and economy products segment coupled with a television advertising program from its competitors. The Company expects these difficult conditions to continue. In 2003 it initiated a series of marketing programs including product development, expansion in distribution channels, in-store promotional support and advertising campaigns. All these activities were implemented simultaneously in Thailand, Malaysia, Indonesia and Singapore and will be carried forward to 2004. The Company is optimistic on the sales growth of disposable baby diapers in the coming years.

The Company manufactures and distributes adult incontinence products through its operation in Thailand to all other markets in Asia under its “DISPO 123™”, “HANDY™” and “CERTAINTY®” brands. The Company has achieved a 70% market share and is the market leader in the adult incontinence market in Thailand. In other Asian markets, the sales of adult incontinence products have increased steadily over the years and the Company’s brands are well established both in the retail and institutional sectors. Some new brands have been introduced in different South East Asian countries but the Company remains optimistic about the market growth potential of the adult incontinence market in the Asian Pacific region.

During 2003, the Company’s operation in the United Kingdom continues to market its branded products to wholesalers and grocery retail accounts. The Company also manufactures private label disposable diapers on a selective basis.

In December 2002, the Company sold its Australian subsidiaries and therefore no longer manufactures or sells disposable baby diapers in Australia and the related markets of the Pacific Islands.

The Company’s marketing strategy is to provide retailers and wholesalers with quality, value-oriented products which offer good profit margins, combined with a high level of service, rather than attempting to mass market its products in competition with the industry leaders. The Company believes that its attention to raw material costs and manufacturing efficiency, combined with careful control of advertising and promotional costs, enables it to produce and market value-oriented products at competitive prices.

The Company’s growth strategy is to target its branded products at selected sectors of mature markets, such as the United States, and to take a broader marketing approach in less developed markets where there is a high rate of growth in disposable diaper usage. The Company believes that its manufacturing facilities in Asia will enable it to participate in the

- 7 -

expected growth of those markets. In the past, the Company has expanded its business into new markets by acquiring the assets of disposable baby diaper and adult incontinence manufacturers. The Company also expands through establishing its own manufacturing facilities in emerging markets which offer significant growth potential, such as the Company’s facilities in the PRC, Thailand, Indonesia and Malaysia, which were opened in 1994, 1995, 1998 and 1999, respectively.

The Company’s principal raw materials are fluff wood pulp and super absorbent polymer. Other raw materials include polyethylene back-sheets, cloth-like breathable back-sheets, polypropylene non-woven liners, adhesive tapes, mechanical closure tapes, hot melt adhesive, elastic, aloe vera and tissue. Fluff wood pulp costs and other raw material costs had edged up in 2003 on the average of 5% to 7%. It is anticipated that these raw material costs will continue to increase in 2004, particularly the wood pulp, super absorbent polymer and polypropylene non-woven. The Company estimates that the magnitude of this raw material increase will be about the same as 2003. Raw material costs typically account for about three-quarters of cost of goods sold.

Disposable diapers are designed and marketed with two basic objectives in mind: (1) to afford parents of infants up to two and one-half years of age the convenience of diapers which are disposed of after one use and (2) to reduce the risk of chapping (“diaper rash”) which often occurs when moisture from a soiled diaper remains in contact with the baby’s skin. The basic concept of most disposable diapers on the market is the same: to allow moisture to pass through a soft inner layer which is in contact with the baby’s skin into a highly absorbent inner core, from which the moisture is prevented from escaping by an outer moisture-proof back-sheet. There are significant differences in quality among the various disposable diapers currently on the market. The most important quality features of disposable diapers are their ability to absorb and retain fluids, to prevent leakage through leg and waist openings by the use of elasticized bands, and to be easily fitted and held in place by adhesive tapes which secure the diaper firmly without causing discomfort to the baby. Other features, such as innovative fastenings, attractive designs, extra-dry sub-layer, gender specific absorbent cores, stand-up leg gathers, cloth-like breathable back-sheets, mechanical closure tapes, elastic waistband, aloe vera and packaging help to differentiate products from one another.

Adult incontinence products are designed for the convenience of males and females having various degrees of incontinence. The basic concept of most adult incontinence products is to prevent leakage of liquid and solid by absorbing the moisture into a highly absorbent inner core and retaining the soiled contents within an outer moisture proof back-sheet. Similar to disposable diapers, the most important quality features of adult incontinence products are their ability to absorb and retain fluids, to prevent leakage through leg and waist openings by the use of elasticized bands, and to be easily fitted and held in place by adhesive tapes which secure firmly without causing discomfort to the user. The absorption media for adult incontinence products are fluff wood pulp and super absorbent polymer. Other features, such as wetness indicator, stand-up leg gathers, elastic waistband, frontal tape closure system and packaging help to differentiate products from one another.

The Company introduces adult incontinence products into its markets in a manner consistent with its niche market strategy. The Company believes that the key to successful marketing of this type of product is the high and prompt level of service from the manufacturer and distributor, regular contact with institutions to ensure proper knowledge of the products, and providing a range of products of high quality and performance.

3. Seasonality

There is no significant seasonality impact on the Company’s business in most countries.

4. Raw Materials

The raw material components used in the manufacturing process are fluff wood pulp, super absorbent polymer, polyethylene back-sheet, cloth-like breathable back-sheet, polypropylene non-woven liner, adhesive closure tape, mechanical closure tapes, hotmelt adhesive, elastic, aloe vera and tissue.

The main raw material is fluff wood pulp, which is purchased from several suppliers in the United States and Scandinavia. The source from which the fluff wood pulp is shipped to the Company’s manufacturing facilities is dependent on price, quality and availability. Other raw materials are purchased from various sources, also depending on price, quality and availability. Fluff wood pulp costs and other raw material costs had edged up in 2003. It is anticipated that these raw material costs will continue to increase in 2004. The Company maintains good and long-term relationships with its raw materials suppliers. The Company’s chief purchasing officer oversees the purchasing and sourcing policies of each of the Company’s manufacturing facilities and is responsible for new material developments and keeping track of all world-wide producers of raw materials. This person also negotiates and determines the purchase of the Company’s major raw materials with the Company’s key raw material suppliers.

- 9 -

The Company has negotiated supply contracts with several of its key suppliers. Such arrangements are generally designed to achieve volume discounts on price and to assure supply stability. In the event of unacceptable price increases, the Company usually has the right to terminate the arrangement upon specified notice periods, which generally range from two to three months.

Some of the suppliers of raw materials to the Company also manufacture disposable diapers which compete with the Company’s products. The Company has not experienced any difficulty with its raw material suppliers who are in competition with it on sales of finished product, but nevertheless it takes steps to ensure that it has alternative sources of supply available.

The main source of energy for the Company’s plants is electricity. The automated process for manufacturing disposable diapers consumes larger amounts of electricity than many other light industries, but none of the Company’s operating subsidiaries has experienced any problems with electricity supply.

5. Marketing Channels

a. North America

i. Products

The Company manufactures and distributes disposable baby diapers, disposable training and youth pants and adult incontinence products throughout North America under the brand names of “DRYPERS®”, “COMFEES®” and “FITTI®”, as well as a growing number of different private label brands. In March 2001, the Company acquired the “DRYPERS®” brand and continues to maintain regional distribution on same. The “DRYPERS®” brand is a full-featured premium product including all of the features of the leading national brands to deliver premium product performance to the quality conscious consumers. The “FITTI®” brand is a full-featured value product, recognized for its unique wetness indicator, a cute print that fades away when the diaper becomes wet. The “FITTI®” brand name is also used with the Company’s disposable training pants and the DRI-NITE JUNIOR disposable youth pants. The Company’s pant products feature tear-away side panels, soft cloth-like covers and comfortable waist and hip elastic and the unique “back tag” feature. The “FITTI®” training pants were the first North American product in this segment to offer the Company’s unique wetness indicators.

The Company continues to expand its private label diaper business throughout North America with such customers as Wal-Mart, Walgreens Drugs, Eckerd Drug, Kroger, Giant Eagle, A&P, Topco, Meijer, Aldi, Amway/Quixtar, Federated Foods, DeMoulas and Medline Industries. The Company is one of very few full line manufacturers capable of producing and marketing a full range of disposable baby diapers as well as training pants and youth pants. This advantage should enhance the Company’s sales and private label partnership opportunities moving into the future. Sales grew steadily with expanded private label sales and distribution through Wal-Mart Stores in 2003.

- 10 -

The Company’s primary focus on adult incontinence products is the development of profitable private label partnerships with selected retailers and institutional distributors such as Walgreens Drug and Medline Industries. The Company’s focus is on the adult brief products, offering a wide range of product and feature alternatives. The Company was the first to bring disposable adult pants to the North American market and the Company will continue to explore innovative product opportunities that will make a positive difference in this category and bring better solutions to the incontinence user.

ii. Sales and Marketing

Disposable baby diapers account for more than 90% of the baby diaper changes in North America. The market can be divided into several segments: brands that are advertised and sold nationally (Premium Brands); brands that are not widely advertised and are sold regionally (Value Brands); and baby diapers that are sold under private label brands (Corporate Brands). The nationally advertised brands account for around 80% of all sales. The Company maintains a good distribution base on its “DRYPERS®” and “FITTI®” brands. The Company’s “DRYPERS®” and “FITTI®” brand training pants have enjoyed excellent consumer acceptance. The new “DRYPERS®” training pant is the first one in the value segment to offer stretchy side panels similar to the leading national brand. The Company was also first to offer wetness indicators on their training pants. The Company’s DRI-NITE JUNIOR youth pant brand is gaining market share in the fast growing youth pant segment. This segment now accounts for more than 3% of total category sales.

The Company services the North American market from three manufacturing facilities. These facilities are located in Oconto Falls, Wisconsin, Marion, Ohio and Vancouver, Washington. The Oconto Falls adult incontinence manufacturing plant is to be closed in 2004. The Company commissions a national network of independent brokers and non-food sales representatives to sell directly to retailers and distributors/wholesalers. These brokers and sales representatives, managed by the Company’s direct sales management team, serve as the Company’s agents within defined territories to monitor sales, implement trade promotions and handle the required merchandising activities and responsibilities. The Company’s direct sales management team is responsible for the Company’s marketing and headquarter sales functions. The Company remains committed to its marketing philosophy of direct servicing of its customers and accounts by the sales management personnel. This allows the Company to provide a high degree of category expertise and education to the trade and to be able to promptly respond to trade and market needs. In addition, the strategic locations of its North American manufacturing facilities has enabled the Company to achieve average shipping transit time of one to two days for most North American destinations and an excellent focus on supply chain management.

Private Label. This segment of the Company’s business is the major volume area and area of potential growth. The Company continues to strengthen its existing private label partnerships with major retailers such as Wal-Mart, Kroger, Eckerd Drug, Walgreens, A&P, Giant Eagle, Amway/Quixtar, Aldi, Federated, Topco, and by adding new products in both areas of disposable baby diapers and training pants. The Company will continue to target other major retailers to establish new profitable private label partnerships in all of its product categories. The Company has positioned itself very well with an advanced line-up of premium products that are better suited to meet the needs of the North American retailers than most of its competitors. The Company recognizes that the private label segment remains somewhat more insulated than that of the typical “value” brands from the aggressive price/promotional strategies of the advertised brands, due to the

- 11 -

protective/defensive posture that major retailers tend to take when it comes to protecting their corporate brand franchise. The Company is one of a limited number of manufacturers capable of supplying a full range of quality disposable baby diapers, training pants, and youth pants and has a proven track record for delivering quality products, category expertise and customer service.

Branded Products. Due to the intense price and promotional pressure by the advertised brands, combined with a declining birth rate in the U.S. market, the “value brand” segment continues to shrink. By the end of 2003, the combined share of the Company’s “DRYPERS®” and “FITTI®” brands was roughly 1.5% of the total units of disposable baby diapers and training pants sold in grocery outlets throughout North America. The Company continues to pursue a hybrid marketing program on the “DRYPERS®” brand. This hybrid is a combination of “every day low price” (“EDLP”) and targeted consumer and trade marketing, designed to increase sales while enhancing their marketing return on investment. The grocery sector represents around 45% of the over $4 billion United States retail market. In certain markets, such as New York/New Jersey, the nation’s largest retail market, the Company believes that the “FITTI®” brand share is much greater than conventional market share tracking companies would indicate. This is because a much higher percentage of “FITTI®” diapers and training pants are sold through urban wholesalers and inner city retailers that typical market research does not track. The Company concentrates its efforts and marketing activities in providing wholesalers and retailers with above average category profits through the use of packaging with greater shelf impact, consumer preferred pre-priced packaging, creative promotional support, creative consumer marketing vehicles, efficient distribution, electronic data interchange and a high level of customer service. The Company has maintained its strategy of providing the best EDLP on its “FITTI®” brand, offering the consumer “the best product for the price” all the time. The Company provides consumers with quality products at affordable price, unique product features and consistent value. The Company has worked to maintain its branded business with a concentrated effort against a primary diaper selling class of trade: grocery with key retail partners such as Shoprite, Pathmark, and Super Valu. Some distribution and sales gains have been made in other non-grocery outlets such as Freds Dollar Stores and the U.S. military. The Company continues to benefit from new product ideas and unique retailer profit opportunities to the disposable baby products segment.

The Company recognizes that private brands represent more than 30% of the category sales in adult incontinence with steady growth at retail and it is this sector of adult incontinence where the greatest retail sales opportunity exists. The Company will continue to target this private brand segment with a range of superior products in terms of product features and performance. The Company’s strategy is to provide products to the marketplace that are superior to other available products and that are also more affordable than the advertised brands. The drug store trade still represents the majority of adult incontinence retail sales with approximately 50% share of the over $600 million category. Growth potential for the entire category remains high as the population continues to age, people who are incontinent become more open to treatment solutions and better products are developed.

Institutional Volume and Activity. The institutional providers supply adult incontinence products to medical care facilities, nursing homes, extended care facilities and home health care outlets. It is worth noting that the institutional market still represents approximately 60% of the total adult incontinence volume in North America or more than $800 million in sales. The adult category represents an area of significant sales and distribution growth for the Company, and significant gains have been captured. Since its launch in 1996, the adult category volume now represents more than 10% of the

Company’s total sales. The Company enjoys an excellent working relationship with Medline Industries, Inc., one of North America’s premier institutional suppliers of medical related products

b. Asia

i. Products

The Company manufactures disposable baby diapers primarily under its own brands in Asia. The Company’s leading brands are “FITTI®” and “PET PET®”, and economy brands are “FITTI® Basic”, BABY LOVE®”, “COSIFITS®”, and “BABY JOY®”. The Company also manufactures private labels on a selective basis. Both “FITTI®” and “PET PET®” enjoy substantial market share, are well supported by advertising and promotional activities, and are priced strategically lower than the major U.S. national and the Japanese brands sold in Asia. The Company’s economy brands are basic products targeted to compete strictly on price and value with local brands.

The Company manufactures and distributes adult incontinence products under its own brands “DISPO 123™”, “HANDY™” and “CERTAINTY®”. The Company also manufactures adult incontinence products in private labels. The “DISPO 123™” product is an ultra anatomic diaper, featuring multi-strand leg elastics, frontal tape closure system and stand-up leg gathers, “HANDY™” and “CERTAINTY®” has similar features as “DISPO 123™” except for the stand-up leg gathers and slight specifications change.

ii. Sales and Marketing

The Company continues to command one of the leading market positions in the mature markets in both Hong Kong and Singapore. The Company enjoys first-mover advantages and localization of manufacturing and distribution base in most of the markets in the Asian region and has established invaluable brand image and strong positions for the Company’s products. The Company continues to focus on expansion of sales in the PRC, Thailand, Malaysia and Indonesia by capitalizing on the increasing usage of disposable baby diapers that are well supported by strategic pricing and effectively designed advertising and promotional activities. The Company also sells its products in Brunei and, to a lesser extent, India, Vietnam, Philippines and Pakistan.

The volume of disposable baby diaper usage varies significantly in different markets, depending to a large extent on the level of per capita disposable incomes. The disposable baby diaper usage is relatively high in Hong Kong and Singapore. Although these two mature markets contracted due to economic downturn and outbreak of SARS, the Company has been able to pursue strategies to maintain its market share in these markets. Disposable baby diaper usage is relatively low in other Asian developing countries, but the Company believes that the usage will increase as income levels in these countries continue to increase.

In Asia, the Company identified the PRC, Thailand, Malaysia and Indonesia as the key markets that will expand rapidly in the next decade. The Company’s strategy is to offer a premium branded product targeted to compete with major U.S. and Japanese brands and to offer economy brands to compete in the fastest growing segment of the markets. The

- 13 -

Company also ensures flexibility in product features, packaging and marketing functions to satisfy the ever-changing needs and trends of the different markets in Asia.

In Hong Kong, the Company has its own direct sales force. Its products are sold in all major pharmacy outlets and department stores which account for 65% of all disposable baby diaper sales, while the remaining 35% are sold in major retail supermarket and hypermarket chains such as Park ‘N Shop, Wellcome and China Resources Company. The disposable baby diaper market in Hong Kong has contracted due to low birth rates, and a weak economy. Around 90% of the Company’s disposable baby diapers sales in Hong Kong are sales of “FITTI®” and “PET PET®” brands of products which collectively have approximately 25% share of the market. The “FITTI®” and “PET PET®” brands are supported by advertising and promotion programs, which not only impact sales in the local market but also in the Pearl River Delta area of Guangdong province in the PRC.

In the PRC the Company’s leading brands are distributed in hypermarkets, supermarket chains, department stores and independent retail stores in most of the provinces, such as Guangdong, Fujian, Zhejiang, Jiangsu, Shandong, Shanxi, Hebei, Shaanxi, Liaoning, Jilin and major municipals and cities, such as Guangzhou, Shenzhen, Shanghai, Shantou, Zhongshan, Tianjin and Beijing. To cope with the rapid development of foreign invested hypermarkets and state-owned supermarket chains in the PRC, the Company has good relationships with the major players like Carrefour, Wal-mart, Metro, Trust-Mart and Makro, as well as Hualian, Century Lianhua, and others. The Company’s products are listed and sold in these hypermarkets and supermarket chains. The Company’s sales operation in Beijing directly services the Beijing and Tianjin markets and expands sales and distribution to northern and northeastern markets such as Shandong, Shanxi and Liaoning provinces and other cities. The Company’s sales and marketing office in Shanghai not only directly services the Shanghai market and serves as a logistic center for the markets in the eastern part of the PRC, but also oversees the nationwide market in the PRC. The Company also has two sales offices in Wuhan and Chengdu focuses on the expansion of its distribution network to the provinces and cities in the Central and Western part of the PRC, such as Wuhan, Chengdu, Sichuan, Chongqing, Yunan, Hunan and Hubei. The Company has expanded its distribution network to 28 provinces, 3 municipals and over 200 cities in the PRC. The Company’s sales expansion in the PRC is well supported by its strategic products and pricing together with customized advertising and promotion programs. The Company estimates that the current usage of disposable baby diapers in the PRC is around 4% and will grow in accordance with the anticipated rapid economic growth of the country.

In Malaysia, the Company’s “FITTI®” and “PET PET®” brands are one of the leading brands in the market, coupled with the benefits of a domestic manufacturing facility in Selangor, Malaysia, the Company is able to compete with U.S. and Japanese major brands. The Company’s economy brands, “FITTI® Basic” expanded rapidly and have gained a significant share in the economy segment of the market by 6%. The Company’s products are distributed nationwide by its own sales forces directly to the major chain stores such as Tesco, Makro, Jusco, Giant and Carrefour, as well as to the other secondary chain stores, independent supermarkets and to lower-end retail outlets.

In Thailand, although the usage of disposable baby diapers is relatively low, the disposable baby diaper market has been growing rapidly in the recent few years. The Company’s major brands in the market are “FITTI®”, “PET PET®”, “BABY LOVE®” and “FITTI® Basic”. The Company’s sales have been increasing with the growth of the market and

- 14 -

from the expansion of the Company’s distribution networks throughout the country. Over 60% of the Company’s sales in Thailand were in the Bangkok metropolitan area, with the rest of the sales coming from the suburban provinces. The Company’s products are distributed to supermarkets and department stores by its own nationwide sales force. The Company has been able to capitalize on the market growth and sustained a market share of about 22% in 2003. The Company also manufactures private label products for a supermarket chain. The Company’s adult incontinence products are distributed to hospitals, supermarkets and department stores. AC Neilsen reported the market share of the Company’s adult incontinence products was approximately 65% in 2003. The Company is also expanding its sales of adult incontinence products in other Asian markets.

The Company’s brands “FITTI®” and “PET PET®” are the leading brands in the Indonesian market. With the joint venture manufacturing facility near Jakarta, the Company is able to reduce its product costs as a result of an import duty exemption on raw materials and minimize the adverse effect of currency fluctuation. The Company’s products are sold in all major hypermarkets and supermarket chains and its major competitors in the market are imported U.S. and Japanese major brands and a local brand.

In Singapore, the disposable baby diaper market is mature but relatively small. The Company sells and distributes its products, of which 89% were branded products and 11% were private label products, by its own sales force in major retail chains, department stores and hypermarkets.

The Company presently does not plan to export its products to Japan, Taiwan and Korea because current non-tariff barriers and complex distribution arrangements make entry into these markets too expensive for imported products.

In countries that have high rates of import duties on products and high risk of currency fluctuation, the Company believes that it is more efficient and economical to service their markets through domestic manufacturing facilities. The Company presently has manufacturing facilities in Hong Kong, Zhongshan, PRC, Thailand, Indonesia and Malaysia.

c. Europe

i. Products

The Company manufactures and markets branded and private label disposable baby diapers in the United Kingdom. The Company’s brands currently in production are “FITTI®”, “COSIFITS®” and “CARES®”. “FITTI®” is a value brand baby diaper with full features such as leg gathers, wetness indicator, cloth-like back-sheet, extra-dry sub-layer and mechanical fasteners. “COSIFITS®” and “CARES®” are economy brands featuring frontal tape and an extra-dry sub-layer.

ii. Sales and Marketing

The U.K. retail disposable baby diaper market in 2003 was approximately $730 million. The Company estimates approximately 90% of the market was branded products from P&G and KC and the remainder is comprised of various

- 15 -

private label brands of retailers supplied by European diaper manufacturers.

The Company focused on selling its branded products to regional retailers and wholesalers by offering a value-oriented product with good profit margins and a high level of service. The Company also produces its own label for certain U.K. grocery chains.

6. Dependent Patents, Licenses and Contracts

a. Patents, Trademarks and Licenses

Brand identification is an important element in marketing the Company’s products, and the Company recognizes the importance of its trademarks to the success of its business. The Company has registered its major trademarks or has applications pending in each of the major markets in which its products are sold, and it has applications pending in several other countries for many of its other trademarks. As the Company decides to pursue opportunities in new markets, it seeks registration of the trademarks under which it will market its products in those countries.

The Company has licenses to use certain patented technology relating to certain features of the disposable diapers it manufactures. In 1997, P&G claimed that certain of the Company’s diaper products infringe P&G’s patents and demanded payment for past infringement and an agreement to pay future royalties. The Company and P&G reached settlement of this claim for the United States market in 1998. On May 21, 2001, the Company entered into an agreement with P&G to settle any potential liability of the Company which may have existed with respect to any past infringement on P&G patents prior to January 1, 2001 and to agree on royalty payments relating to sales on certain of the Company’s products in the Asian Pacific and Australian regions after December 31, 2000 ($216,000, $546,000 and $531,000 for the year ended December 31, 2003, 2002 and 2001, respectively). The agreement encompasses fixed payments totaling $300,000 relating to the period prior to January 1, 2001 and payment of royalties based on a percentage of sales of certain products in the Asian Pacific region beginning January 1, 2001.

On September 12, 2003, the Company entered into another agreement with P&G to resolve any possible dispute between the parties related to the patent. This agreement grants a royalty bearing, non-exclusive right for certain products produced by the Company’s North American region.

b. Contracts

The Company is a contract manufacturer for certain customers to supply private label products for baby disposable diapers and adult incontinence products.

The Company entered into financial contracts with certain Banks and Financial Institutions for various financing facilities of revolving working capital lines, equipment leasing and term loans.

In March 2001, one of the Company’s U.S. subsidiaries (the “Subsidiary”) entered into an amended financing agreement with its existing financial institution (the “Senior Lender”) under which the Subsidiary received a term loan of $11

- 16 -

million (the “Term Loan”), a capital expenditure line of up to $5 million, and a revolving credit facility (based on the lesser of a percentage of eligible accounts receivable and inventory or $15 million). Such financing was entered into in connection with the Subsidiary’s purchase of certain assets of the North American operations of Drypers Corporation. The full amount of the $11 million Term Loan was borrowed, with interest payable at the LIBOR for one portion of the loan and prime plus 2.75% per year for the other portion. These loans are divided into three separate terms loan and repayable in monthly installments of principal in the amount of $183,300 plus interest and are collateralized by the Subsidiary’s assets. In addition, the Subsidiary had outstanding borrowings of approximately $6.6 million and $5.8 million of the $15.0 million revolving credit facility as of December 31, 2003 and 2002, respectively. These amounts were recorded as a component of short-term borrowings in the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheets. The Company had approximately $8.4 million and $9.2 million available for additional borrowings under the revolving credit facility at December 31, 2003 and 2002 respectively.

Among other things, the Senior Lender Loan agreement contains certain restrictive covenants, including the maintenance of earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization (“EBITDA”) and tangible net worth, and places limitations on acquisitions, dispositions, capital expenditures, and additional indebtedness. At December 31, 2002, the Company was not in compliance with the fiscal year ended financial statements delivery time period covenants. This violation was waived by the Senior Lender on March 28, 2003.

In connection with the waiver of this covenant violation, the Senior Lender and the Company amended the Term Loan agreement to extend the fiscal year ended financial statements delivery time period and re-establish the minimum EBITDA and tangible net worth covenants on June 19, 2003. The Company also entered into amendment of the Term Loan agreement with the Senior Lender to reflect the recent changes in the U.S. tax law on October 15, 2003.

Under the Sale and Purchase Agreement between DSG International Limited (“DSGIL”) and Castle Harlan Australian Mezzanine Partners Pty. Limited (“CHAMP”), dated November 11, 2002, CHAMP agreed to purchase and DSGIL agreed to sell its Australian subsidiaries. The gross value of the transaction was A$53 million (approximately US$29.6 million). The transaction closed on December 6, 2002.

7. Competition

The disposable baby diaper industry is dominated world-wide by the brands of two major U.S. manufacturers: P&G and KC. The market position of these manufacturers, relative to the Company, varies from one geographic area to another, but due to their substantial financial, technical and marketing, manufacturing, logistics and personnel resources, both of these major manufacturers have the ability to exert significant influence and gain substantial market share in any of their marketing areas. Despite the disparity in relative strength, however, the Company has been able to secure its position in the face of very strong competition from the industry leaders by remaining innovative, flexible and financially responsible.

- 17 -

a. North America

The North American disposable baby diaper market remains dominated by the brands of the two major U.S. manufacturers: P&G and KC. Their combined market share of the disposable baby diaper market is 83%; including the disposable training pant, youth pant and swim pant products. During 2003, total category unit sales are declining at a rate of about 4% and dollar sales at a rate of about 8%, with volume continuing to shift from the grocery and drug classes of trade to the dollar store and mass merchandisers. Consumers continue to move to larger packages for a lower price and more savings. These two major manufacturers continued their strategy of driving their business with aggressive retail pricing, rather than competing solely on the basis of consumer-driven marketing programs and product innovations. Retail pricing pressure remained intense in the disposable diaper and training pant categories throughout 2003. A number of major retailers remain concerned with the negative impact that the advertised brand’s strategy has had on their own private label sales and margins, and some continue to take corrective actions like raising national brand retail price and reducing branded store keeping units (sku) to protect their own brands. All of the moves made by the advertised national brands have resulted in lower retail prices and the narrowing of retail price spreads between the advertised brands and private label offerings. In an effort to compete with the leading U.S. retailer, others have relied on low entry level price points and diluted profit margins.

The continued moves by the major manufacturers to keep retail prices depressed, promote aggressively and keep the retailers satisfied with minimal margins in favor of sales volume, have put serious sales and margin pressure on smaller brand and private label manufacturers. In response to this competitive activity, the Company has reallocated its promotional spending and has maintained a strategy in line with EDLP, targeted trade promotions, enhanced product features and tightened cost controls. This strategy on its core “FITTI®” and “DRYPERS®” brands has allowed the Company to protect its share in some critical markets and expand its private label base of business.

In the adult incontinence arena, the Company is in a good competitive position, having the capability to provide key retailers and consumers with product technology that is superior to what some other manufacturers can currently provide. There is an added advantage that comes from the demand for better products in order to meet the performance and comfort requirements of incontinent consumers.

b. Asia

The Company’s main competition in Asia comes from the brands of the P&G and KC, and several manufacturers from Japan and Taiwan. The Company believes that it has been able to maintain a significant share of the Asian market due to its longer presence and well established brands in that region and the logistical advantage which results from the strategic location of its manufacturing operations.

c. Europe

In the United Kingdom, the disposable baby diaper market continues to be dominated by P&G. The Company estimates that P&G has a market share of approximately 52%, and KC has a market share of approximately 38%. Both companies continued to heavily promote and discount their brands in the U.K. market. Due to such consistent promotion activities, the private label and miscellaneous brands have been reduced to approximately 10% market share.

8. Government Regulations

a. Customs and Import Duties

Some of the raw materials used in manufacturing the Company’s products are subject to import duties at varying rates in the countries in which the Company’s manufacturing facilities are located. However, import duties on raw materials do not represent a significant part of the cost of the finished product and, in most cases, the import duties are refundable if the finished goods are exported from the countries of manufacture.

Imports of finished products to some of the markets are subject to import duties at various rates. However, such duties are usually incorporated in the selling price of the finished product.

b. Environment

The Company believes that operations at all of its manufacturing facilities are conducted in compliance with applicable environmental laws, and that none of the material substances used or disposed of by the Company in its manufacturing operations are considered to be toxic or hazardous substances under such laws.

The Company closely monitors environmental laws and regulations pertaining to disposal of solid waste, which includes household refuse, packaging and paper materials, and yardwaste, in addition to disposable diapers, in each of the markets in which its products are sold. The Company is not aware of any such laws or regulations which would have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business as presently conducted and proposed to be conducted. A number of states in the United States have passed legislation that is intended to discourage the use of disposable products such as beverage containers, certain packaging materials and disposable diapers, or to encourage the use of non-disposable or recyclable products. The Company believes that it will not have to make any changes to its products to comply with presently existing environmental laws and regulations in the markets in which its products are sold.

The Company endeavors to develop products which are environmentally responsible by closely monitoring world-wide developments in various raw material components and actively works with suppliers to develop and market products utilizing such components.

c. Insurance

All of the Company’s plant, machinery and inventories are covered by fire and extended coverage insurance. The Company maintains product liability insurance in amounts it believes to be adequate in all its operations, except for its operations in Asia where local manufacturers customarily do not carry product liability insurance because the risk of product liability lawsuits is considered to be slight.

D. Description of Property

The Company now operates nine manufacturing facilities, with plants located in: the United States at Marion, Ohio, Vancouver, Washington and Oconto Falls, Wisconsin; the PRC at Hong Kong and Zhongshan, Guangdong; Chesterfield, U.K.; Bangkok, Thailand; Cikande, Indonesia and Selangor, Malaysia.

Over the years, the expansion in the Company’s Thailand operations has outgrown the existing manufacturing facility. As a result, the Company purchased land of approximately 240,000 square feet in Saraburi, Thailand in 2002 and started building construction in 2003. The Company will relocate its Thailand operation to the new facility in the third quarter of 2004.

The Company’s joint venture investment in China acquired land of approximately 130,000 square feet in Waigoaqiao, Shanghai, PRC. As Chinese law prohibits foreigners or foreign entities to have land ownership, this land was acquired with a 50 years land use rights only. In addition, the Company purchased another land of approximately 200,000 square feet adjacent to the land purchased by Shanghai joint venture investment for the near future facility expansion. Presently, there is no plan to start the building construction.

On March 20, 2003, the Board of Directors of the Company authorized the purchase of the London residence of Mr. Wang, for its fair market value of $12.3 million as determined by an independent appraiser. The net proceeds of this transaction of $5.7 million was used by Mr. Wang to repay a portion of the shareholder loan due to the Company. The Board of Directors authorized Mr. Wang and his wife’s use and lease of this London property from the Company at a market rate determined by an independent appraiser of $36,000 per month.

- 20 -

The Company utilizes an aggregate of approximately 1,358,295 square feet of space in its manufacturing operations. The Company believes that its plant facilities are adequate for its present operations.

The Company operates 25 productive disposable baby diaper, training pants and adult incontinence machines. The gross productivity of the machines ranges from 350 pieces to 600 pieces per minute for disposable baby diapers, 100 pieces to 150 pieces per minute for training pants and adult incontinence products. The productivity of the machines is dependent on the machine types, sizes and packing configurations of the products.

Item 5. Operating and Financial Review and Prospects.

A. Operating Results

The information required is contained in the Consolidated Statements of Operations of the Annual Report to Shareholders, and is incorporated herein by reference.

B. Liquidity and Capital Resources

The information required is contained in the Operating and Financial Review and Prospects of the Annual Report to Shareholders, and is incorporated herein by reference.

C. Research and Development, Patents and Licenses

The Company actively monitors trends in the United States and Europe in relation to changes in product features, consumer preferences, and the impact of environmental laws and regulations on the disposable diaper industry. Although the Company does not devote substantial expenditure to research and development, it constantly seeks to improve its products by substitution of materials and components, and of product features, to systematically improve the performance of its diapers for better absorbency and improved leakage protection. In particular, the Company monitors world-wide developments in various raw material components to enable the Company to take advantage of the latest developments, and in certain cases the Company has worked closely with suppliers to pioneer the use of such materials in the manufacture of disposable diapers.

D. Trend Information

1. Industry Trends

The Company believes that the most significant industry trends are:

• fluff wood pulp costs and other raw material costs have edged up in 2003 in the average of 5% to 7%. It is anticipated that these raw material costs will continue to increase in 2004 possibly the same margin as 2003. The margin may be adversely affected if selling prices are not adjusted or if such adjustments significantly trails the cost increases;

• increasing demand for cloth-like breathable back-sheet, elasticated ear patch with mechanical closure system, and thin absorbent core products, which the Company is meeting through machine modifications and product development effort;

• the domination of industry leaders in most of the markets putting pressure on retailers’ margins, which the Company is finding difficult to respond to by providing retailers with higher profit margins in the current highly competitive market conditions.

The Company is unable to predict whether the industry trends noted above would have a material effect on its future financial condition or results of operations and, if so, whether such an effect will be positive or negative.

- 22 -

2. Inventory Practice and Order Backlog

The disposable diaper industry is generally characterized by prompt delivery by manufacturers and rapid movement of the product through retail outlets. The lead-time between placing an order and shipment to the local customer averages five to ten days. The Company maintains varying levels of raw materials and finished products inventory depending on lead-time and shipping schedules. The Company’s inventory levels generally vary between three to eight weeks. Due to the short lead-time between order and delivery of products, the Company does not maintain a significant backlog.

E. Off Balance Sheet Arrangements

Not applicable.

F. Contractual Obligations

As of the year ended December 31, 2003, the Company’s contractual obligations and commitments were summarized as follows:

	Payment due by year
	Total		2004		2005		2006		2007		2008 and thereafter
	(Dollars in thousands)
Short-term borrowings	$	15,583	$	15,583	$	—	$	—	$	—	$	—

Total	$	68,794	$	49,048	$	5,678	$	3,932	$	949	$	9,187

Over the last few years, the Company’s cash requirements have been primarily provided by internally generated funds and bank borrowings. In the opinion of the Company, the cash on hand of $20.3 million plus expected cash flow from operating activities is sufficient to fund its liquidity, contractual obligations and commitments needs for the next twelve months. However, the Company may require additional borrowings in order to finance expansion, capital expenditure, other investments or other business requirements. Additional information on short-term borrowings, long-term debt and commitments and contingencies is set out in Notes 11 and 12 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements of the Annual Report to Shareholders.

In April 2003, the Company entered into a joint venture agreement with Mitsubishi Corporation and Japan Absorbent Technology Institute of Japan to establish a manufacturing facility in Shanghai, PRC. The joint venture will engage in manufacturing disposable hygiene related products. The Japanese joint venture partners will provide the proprietary patents, related technology and certain raw materials.

B. Related Party Transactions

The following table sets forth the aggregate amount of loans made by the Company to Brandon Wang, the founder, principal shareholder and Chief Executive Officer of the Company and to a trust of which he is a beneficiary since January 1, 1996:

- 29 -

On March 19, 2003, 375,000 restricted shares were granted to Mr. Wang under the Company’s Equity Participation Plan. These restricted Ordinary Shares were considered bonus shares that had a six-month vesting period from the date of grant. After expiration of the vesting period on September 23, 2003, Mr. Wang sold these restricted Ordinary Shares back to the Company at the prevailing market price of $7.01 per share. Mr. Wang received payment of $5.00 per share ($1.875 million) at the time of the share repurchase. The Company has a remaining balance of $754,000 due Mr. Wang on the 375,000 restricted Ordinary Shares of $2.01 per share as of year ended December 31, 2003.

On March 20, 2003, the Board of Directors of the Company authorized the purchase of the London residence of Mr. Wang, for its fair market value of $12.3 million as determined by an independent appraiser. The net proceeds of this transaction of $5.7 million was used by Mr. Wang to repay a portion of the shareholder loan due to the Company. The Board of Directors authorized Mr. Wang and his wife’s use and lease of this London property from the Company at a market rate determined by an independent appraiser of $36,000 per month.

During 2003, 2002 and 2001, Mr. Wang and a trust controlled by him repaid $8.6 million, $4.1 million and $3.9 million, respectively, to the Company. In 2002 and 2001, the Company advanced $1.9 million and $3.0 million, respectively, to Mr. Wang and to a trust of which he is a beneficiary. These advances were made under a loan and security agreement in which the Company agreed to make loans to Mr. Wang from time to time, subject to any limit on such loans which may be imposed by the Board of Directors. The loans were repayable on demand evidenced by promissory notes bearing interest at a rate equal to 1.5% over LIBOR or such other rate that the Board of Directors and the borrower shall agree in writing. Interest of $81,000, $230,000 and $445,000 was charged on these advances in 2003, 2002 and 2001, respectively.

As a result of these series of transactions and the remaining payable balance of $754,000 due to shares repurchased from Mr. Wang, the Company had a balance of $1.2 million payable to Mr. Wang and a Trust controlled by him as of December 31, 2003.

Item 10. Other Information.

A. Share Capital

The Company’s authorized share capital consists of 20,000,000 Ordinary Shares, $0.01 par value per share. At May 31, 2004, there were 7,258,316 Ordinary Shares of the Company outstanding, all of which were fully paid.

B. Memorandum and Articles of Association

The following is a brief description of the rights of holders of fully paid Ordinary Shares. This description does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Memorandum and Articles of Association of the Company, which have been previously filed as an exhibit, and to the relevant provisions of the British Virgin Islands International Business Companies Act.

1. General

All of the issued Ordinary Shares are credited as fully paid and non-assessable, except that a share issued for a promissory note or other written obligation for payment of a debt may be subject to forfeiture, and accordingly no further contribution of capital may be required by the Company from holders of Ordinary Shares. Under British Virgin Islands (“BVI”) law, non-residents of the BVI may freely hold, vote and transfer their Ordinary Shares in the same manner as BVI residents.

- 32 -

2. Dividends

Holders of Ordinary Shares are entitled to participate in the payment of dividends in proportion to their holdings. The Board of Directors may declare and pay dividends in respect of any accounting period out of the profits legally available for distribution. Dividends, if any, will be paid in U.S. dollars.

The Company’s dividend policy will depend on the Company’s earnings, capital requirements, financial condition and other factors considered relevant by the Board of Directors. For a discussion of taxation of dividends, see “Taxation”.

The Company announced on March 21, 2003 the payment of a 70-cent dividend in relation to the sale of the Australian subsidiaries to shareholders of record on April 11, 2003. The dividend was paid on April 25, 2003.

3. Voting Rights

In order to avoid certain adverse U.S. income tax consequences to the Company, the voting rights of any shareholder who holds more than 10% of the Company’s outstanding shares will be suspended as to shares held by such shareholder in excess of 10% of the Company’s outstanding shares (“Excess Shares”). Excess Shares are not counted as voting shares for purposes of establishing a quorum at shareholders’ meetings. However, the Board of Directors has discretion to exempt any such Excess Shares from these restrictions if it is satisfied, on the basis of evidence and assurances acceptable to it, that the holding of shares in excess of 10% of the Company’s outstanding shares by such shareholder will not result in the Company being classified as a controlled foreign corporation (“CFC”), foreign personal holding company (“FPHC”) or personal holding company (“PHC”) within the meaning of the U.S. Internal Revenue Code (“Code”). See “Taxation”; “Restrictions on Transfer and Voting; Redemption of Ordinary Shares”.

Every shareholder who is present in person or by proxy at a meeting of the Company shall have one vote for each Ordinary Share of which he is the holder. A poll may be demanded by the chairman of the meeting, or by any shareholder present in person or by proxy.

The Articles of Association of the Company make no provision for cumulative voting. Accordingly, the controlling shareholders have a sufficient number of Ordinary Shares to elect all of the Company’s directors.

4. Restrictions on Transfer and Voting; Redemption of Ordinary Shares

The Company’s Memorandum and Articles of Association contain certain provisions which are intended to avoid situations in which the Company may be classified as a CFC, FPHC or PHC. See “Taxation”. These provisions are intended only to avoid the adverse U.S. income tax consequences which would result from such classification.

The following is a summary of the relevant provisions of the Memorandum and Articles:

(i) Restricted Transfers of Ordinary Shares. The Board of Directors may, but is not obliged to, refuse to register the transfer of any of the Ordinary Shares of the Company if, in the opinion of the Board, such transfer might cause the Company to be classified as a CFC, FPHC or PHC.

- 33 -

(ii) Restrictions on Voting Rights. In the event that any person holds more than 10% of the Company’s outstanding shares, any shares in excess of 10% of the Company’s outstanding shares shall be “Excess Shares”, which shall not be entitled to any voting rights and shall not be considered voting shares for purposes of establishing a quorum. However, the Board of Directors may exempt any such Excess Shares from these restrictions if it is satisfied, on the basis of evidence and assurances acceptable to it, that the holding of shares in excess of 10% of the Company’s outstanding shares by such shareholder will not result in the Company being classified as a CFC, FPHC or PHC. In addition, these restrictions on voting rights do not apply to shares acquired in a cash tender offer for all outstanding shares of the Company where a majority of the outstanding shares of the Company are duly tendered and accepted pursuant to such cash tender offer.

(iii) Disclosure of Certain Information to the Company. Any person who directly owns 5% or more of the Company’s outstanding shares is required to file with the Company, within 60 days of the end of the Company’s taxable year (which is currently the calendar year) and prior to any transfer of shares by or to such person, an affidavit setting forth the number of shares (1) owned directly by such person or by a nominee of such person, and (2) owned indirectly or constructively by such person by reason of the attribution rules of Sections 542, 544 and 958 of the Code or by reason of application of the attribution rules of Rule 13(d) of the U.S. Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (“Exchange Act”). The affidavit filed with the Company must set forth all the information required to be reported (1) in returns of shareholders required to be filed under U.S. Income Tax Regulations Section 1.6035-1 (including shareholder related information for inclusion in IRS Form 5471), and (2) in reports required to be filed under Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act. All shares held by any person who fails to comply with this reporting requirement shall be deemed Excess Shares and shall be subject to the voting restrictions and redemption provisions described herein.

(iv) Redemption of Ordinary Shares. The Company may, in the discretion of the Board of Directors, redeem any Excess Shares at a price equal to (1) the average of the high and low sales price of the shares on the last business day prior to the redemption date on the principal national securities exchange on which such shares are listed or admitted to trading, or (2) if the shares are not listed or admitted to trading, the average of the highest bid and lowest asked prices on such last business day as reported by the National Quotation Bureau Incorporated or similar organization selected from time to time by the Company, or (3) if not determinable as aforesaid, as determined in good faith by the Board of Directors.

The directors of the Company, in a meeting held on January 6, 1992, resolved that the principal shareholder, Brandon Wang, is exempt from the foregoing restrictions. The directors have also approved exemption of certain institutional shareholders from the foregoing restrictions as the Board was satisfied that such exemption would not have any of the adverse tax consequences described above.

5. Rights of Shareholders under British Virgin Islands Law may be less than in U.S. Jurisdictions

The Company’s corporate affairs are governed by its Memorandum and Articles of Association and by the International Business Companies Act of the British Virgin Islands. Principles of law relating to such matters as the validity of corporate procedures, the fiduciary duties of Management and the rights of the Company’s shareholders may differ from those that would apply if the Company were incorporated in a jurisdiction within the United States. The rights of shareholders under British Virgin Islands law are not as clearly established as the rights of shareholders under legislation or

- 34 -

judicial precedent in existence in most U.S. jurisdictions. Thus, the public shareholders of the Company may have more difficulty in protecting their interests in the face of actions by the Board of Directors or the principal shareholders than they might have as shareholders of a corporation incorporated in a U.S. jurisdiction. In addition, it is unlikely that the courts of the British Virgin Islands would enforce, either in an original action or in an action for enforcement of judgments of U.S. courts, liabilities which are predicated upon the securities laws of the United States. See “Description of Securities”.

6. Directors

Under the Company’s Articles of Association, the subscribers to the Memorandum of Association must appoint the first directors, and thereafter the directors may be appointed by the shareholders, or by the directors to fill a vacancy or as an addition to the existing directors. Directors may be removed, with or without cause, by a resolution of the shareholders of the Company, or with cause by a resolution of the other directors.

7. Powers of Directors

The business and affairs of the Company is managed by the directors of the Company who exercise all such powers of the Company as are not by the Act or by the Memorandum or these Articles required to be exercised by the members of the Company, subject to any delegation of such powers as may be prescribed by a resolution of members; but no requirement made by a resolution of members shall prevail if it be inconsistent with the Articles nor shall such requirement invalidate any prior act of the directors which would have been valid if such requirement had not been made.

The directors may, by a resolution of directors, appoint any person, including a person who is a director, to be an officer or agent of the Company. The resolution of directors appointing an agent may authorize the agent to appoint one or more substitutes or delegates to exercise some or all of the powers conferred on the agent by the Company.

Every officer or agent of the Company has such powers and authority of the directors, including the power and authority to affix the Seal, as are set forth in the Articles or in the resolution of directors appointing the officer or agent, except that no officer or agent has any power or authority with respect to the matters requiring a resolution of directors under the Memorandum, the Articles, or the Act.

The continuing directors may act notwithstanding any vacancy in their body, save that if their number is reduced to their knowledge below the number fixed by or pursuant to these Articles as the necessary quorum for a meeting of directors, the continuing directors or director may act only for the purpose of appointing directors to fill any vacancy that has arisen or for summoning a meeting of members.

The directors may, by resolution of directors exercise all the powers of the Company to borrow money and to mortgage or charge its undertakings and property or any part thereof, to issue debentures, debenture stock and other securities whenever money is borrowed, or as security for any debt, liability or obligation of the Company or of any third party.

- 35 -

All cheques, promissory notes, drafts, bills of exchange and other negotiable instruments and all receipts for moneys paid to the Company, shall be signed, drawn, accepted, endorsed or otherwise executed, as the case may be, in such manner as shall from time to time be determined by resolution of directors.

The Company may determine by resolution of directors to maintain at its registered office a register of mortgages, charges and other encumbrances in which there shall be entered the following particulars regarding each mortgage, charge and other encumbrance: (a) the sum secured; (b) the assets secured; (c) the name and address of the mortgagee/chargee or other encumbrancer; (d) the date of creation of the mortgage, charge or other encumbrance; and (e) the date on which the particulars specified above in respect of the mortgage, charge or other encumbrance are entered in the register.

The Company may further determine by a resolution of directors to register a copy of the register of mortgages, charges or other encumbrances with the Registrar of Companies.

8. Quorum

The quorum required to constitute a valid general meeting of shareholders consists of shareholders present in person or by proxy holding at least a majority of all issued Ordinary Shares entitled to vote. If a meeting is adjourned for lack of quorum, it will stand adjourned to the next business day at the same time and place or to such other day and at such other time and place as the directors may determine, and if at the adjourned meeting there are present within one hour from the time appointed for the meeting at least one-third of the shares entitled to vote at the meeting, the shareholder or shareholders present shall be a quorum. However, a meeting convened on the requisition of the shareholders shall be dissolved if a quorum is not present at the first meeting.

9. Resolutions

Resolutions may be adopted at shareholders’ meetings by the affirmative vote of a simple majority of the Ordinary Shares entitled to vote thereon.

Certain actions may be taken by a resolution of the directors. Such actions include an amendment of the Company’s Memorandum and Articles of Association, an increase or reduction in the Company’s authorized capital, and a change in the Company’s name.

10. Rights in a Winding-up

Holders of Ordinary Shares are entitled to participate in proportion to their holdings in any distribution of assets after satisfaction of liabilities to creditors in a winding-up.

11. Authorized but Unissued Shares

Under the Company’s Memorandum and Articles of Association, there are 12,741,684 authorized but unissued Ordinary Shares as of year ended December 31, 2003. Those additional authorized but unissued Ordinary Shares may be

- 36 -

utilized for a variety of corporate purposes, including future public or private offerings to raise additional capital or for facilitating corporate acquisitions. The Company issued 1,175,000 shares pursuant to the Equity Participation Plan (see Note 17 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements of the Annual Report to Shareholders), then repurchased and cancelled 905,800 shares during 2003. The Company does not currently have any plans to issue additional Ordinary Shares.

12. Transfers of Ordinary Shares

The Company’s Memorandum and Articles of Association do not restrict the transferability of fully paid Ordinary Shares, except that the Board of Directors may refuse to register the transfer of any of the Ordinary Shares if, in the opinion of the Board, such transfer might result in the Company becoming a CFC, FPHC or PHC. See “Restrictions on Transfer and Voting; Redemption of Ordinary Shares”.

13. New Issues of Ordinary Shares

Under the Company’s Articles of Association, the Board of Directors is authorized to exercise the power of the Company to offer, allot, grant options over or otherwise dispose of all of the remaining unissued Ordinary Shares of the Company, which comprise 12,741,684 Ordinary Shares as of December 31, 2003. The Board of Directors may, without further shareholder action, increase the number of authorized shares of the Company.

In addition the Board of Directors may, without further shareholder action, designate any of the authorized but unissued Ordinary Shares as preferred shares by amending the Company’s Memorandum of Association. Upon filing such amendment with the BVI Registrar of Companies, the Board of Directors would have authority to fix the dividend rights and rates, voting rights, redemption provisions and liquidation preference, all of which may take precedence over comparable rights of the existing Ordinary Shares.

In March 2002, the Company registered under the Securities Exchange Act of 1933 1,500,000 Ordinary Shares under its Equity Participation Plan (the “Option Plan”).

The Company issued 1,175,000 Ordinary Shares in 2003, see Note 17 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements of the Annual Report to Shareholders.

14. Merger; Dissenters’ Rights

BVI law provides for mergers whereby there occurs either an absorption by one company of another company and the simultaneous dissolution of the other company, or the formation of a new company that absorbs two companies and the automatic dissolution of both absorbed companies. BVI law provides for compulsory acquisition or appraisal of the interests of a shareholder who objects to the transfer of the ownership or assets of a company.

- 37 -

Under section 83 of the BVI International Business Companies Act, a shareholder of a company incorporated under the Act has the right to object to a proposed merger of the Company. If the shareholder complies fully with the requirements of section 83 and the merger is approved by a majority of shareholders, the dissenting shareholder may require the Company to pay fair value (as agreed or appraised) for his shares.

Pursuant to section 83 (11) of the Act, a shareholder who chooses to enforce dissenting shareholders’ rights may not enforce other remedial rights to which he might otherwise be entitled by virtue of his holding shares, except that the shareholder shall retain the right to institute proceedings to obtain relief on the ground that the merger is illegal.

15. Joint Shareholders

If two or more persons who hold shares jointly are present at a meeting in person or by proxy they must vote as one. Dividends and notices may be paid or sent, in the case of joint holders, to any one of the persons named as joint shareholders in the register of members.

16. Fiduciary Responsibilities

Under U.S. law majority and controlling shareholders generally have certain “fiduciary” responsibilities to the minority shareholders. Shareholder action must be taken in good faith and actions by controlling shareholders which are obviously unreasonable may be declared null and void. BVI law protecting the interests of minority shareholders may not be as protective in all circumstances as the law protecting minority shareholders in U.S. jurisdictions.

While BVI law does permit a shareholder of a BVI company to sue its directors derivatively (i.e., in the name of and for the benefit of the Company) and to sue the Company and its directors for his benefit and for the benefit of others similarly situated, the circumstances in which any such action may be brought, and the procedures and defenses that may be available in respect of any such action, may result in the rights of shareholders of a BVI company being more limited than those of shareholders in a U.S. company.

17. Indemnification of Officers and Directors

Under its Memorandum and Articles of Association, the Company is authorized to indemnify any person who is made or threatened to be made a party to a legal or administrative proceeding by virtue of being a director, officer or agent of the Company, provided such person acted in the best interests of the Company and, in the case of a criminal proceeding, such person had no reasonable cause to believe that his conduct was unlawful. The Company is obliged to indemnify any director, officer or agent of the Company who was successful in any proceeding against reasonable expenses incurred in connection with the proceeding, regardless of whether such person met the standard of conduct described in the preceding sentence.

18. Transfer Agent and Registrar

Mellon Investor Services, LLC serves as the Transfer Agent and Registrar for the Ordinary Shares.

C. Material Contracts

The following summarizes each material contract, other than contracts entered into in the ordinary course of business, to which the Company or any subsidiary of the Company is a party, for the two years immediately preceding the filing of this report, and which are filed as Exhibits hereto:

Loan and Security Agreement between Associated Hygienic Products LLC as borrower and Foothill Capital Corporation as lender dated March 14, 2001 and as amended under which the lender agrees to make a term loan, a capital expenditure line and revolver advances to the borrower up to $27.5 million. See “Dependent Patents, Licenses and Contracts” in Item 4.B.6. and Notes 11 and 12 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements of the Annual Report to Shareholders.

Limited (the “Purchaser”), the Purchaser agrees to purchase and the Seller agrees to sell its Australian subsidiaries. The gross value of the transaction was A$53 million (approximately $29.6 million). The transaction closed on December 6, 2002.

D. Exchange Controls

There are no exchange control restrictions on payment of dividends, interest, or other payments to non-resident holders of the Company’s securities or on the conduct of the Company’s operation in Hong Kong, where the Company’s principal executive offices are located or the British Virgin Islands, where the Company is incorporated. Other jurisdictions in which the Company conducts operations may have various exchange controls and the Company believes that such controls will not have a material effect on the Company’s liquidity or cash flow.

E. Taxation

The following discussion is a summary of certain anticipated U.S. federal income tax and BVI tax consequences of ownership of Ordinary Shares. The discussion does not address all possible tax consequences relating to ownership of Ordinary Shares and does not purport to describe the tax consequences applicable to all categories of owners, some of which may be subject to special rules. In particular, the discussion does not address the tax consequences under state, local and other national (e.g., non-U.S. and non-BVI) tax laws. Accordingly, each shareholder should consult its own tax advisor regarding the particular tax consequences to it of its ownership of the Ordinary Shares.

This summary is based upon current laws and regulations and relevant interpretations of these laws and regulations, all of which are subject to change, possibly with retroactive effect. We cannot assure you that a later change in law will not significantly alter the tax considerations that we describe in this summary. We have not requested a ruling from the Internal Revenue Service with respect to any of the United States federal income tax consequences described herein. As a result, there can be no assurance that the Internal Revenue Service will not disagree with or challenge any of the conclusions described below.

1. United States Federal Income Taxation

The following is a summary of the material United States federal income tax consequences, as of the date of this document, of the ownership of our Ordinary Shares by shareholders who are “United States persons” and who hold such Ordinary Shares as capital assets, as determined under applicable United States tax rules (“U.S. Investors”). Under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), a shareholder is a “United States person” if such shareholder is:

• a citizen or resident of the United States;

• a corporation created or organized in or under the laws of the United States or any political subdivision thereof;

• an estate, the income of which is subject to United States federal income taxation regardless of its source; or

• a trust that is subject to the supervision of a court within the United States and the control of one or more United States persons or that has a valid election in effect under applicable United States Treasury regulations to be treated as a United States person.

This summary does not address the United States federal income tax consequences applicable to shareholders that are subject to special treatment under the United States federal income tax laws, including shareholders that are:

• dealers in securities or currencies;

• traders in securities that elect to use a mark-to-market method of accounting for your securities holdings;

• financial institutions;

• insurance companies;

• tax-exempt organizations;

• persons liable for alternative minimum tax;

• persons holding Ordinary Shares as part of a hedging, integrated or conversion transaction, constructive sale or straddle;

- 40 -

• persons owning, actually or constructively, 10% or more of our voting stock or 10% or more of the voting stock of any of our non-United States subsidiaries (a “10% Shareholder”), or

• persons whose functional currency is not the United States dollar.

If a partnership holds Ordinary Shares, the tax treatment of a partner will generally depend upon the status of the partner and the activities of the partnership. Partners of partnerships that hold Ordinary Shares should consult their own tax advisors concerning the particular United States federal income tax consequences to them of the ownership and disposition of Ordinary Shares.

The gross amount of distributions received with respect to Ordinary Shares by a U.S. Investor will generally be treated as dividend income to such shareholder if the distributions are made from the Company’s current or accumulated earnings and profits, calculated according to United States federal income tax principles. Such income will be includible in the U.S. Investor’s gross income on the day such distribution is actually or constructively received. A U.S. Investor that is a corporation will not be entitled to claim a dividend received deduction (generally allowed to United States corporations in respect of dividends received from other United States corporations) with respect to distributions received with respect to the Ordinary Shares.

Certain dividends received from a foreign corporation before January 1, 2009 by a U.S. Investor that is an individual with respect to shares that are readily tradable on an established securities market in the United States may be subject to reduced rates of taxation. The Company believes that it’s Ordinary Shares, which are listed on the NASDAQ, are readily tradable on an established securities market in the United States. There can be no assurance that our Ordinary Shares will continue to be readily tradable on an established securities market in later years. Individuals that do not meet a minimum holding period requirement during which they are not protected from this risk of loss or that elect to treat the dividend income as “investment income” pursuant to section 163(d)(4) of the Code will not be eligible for the reduced rates of taxation regardless of the trading status of our Ordinary Shares. U.S. Investors that are individuals should consult their own tax advisors regarding the application of these rules in their particular circumstances.

A U.S. Investor that sells or otherwise disposes of Ordinary Shares will recognize capital gain or loss in an amount equal to the difference between the amount realized for the shares and such shareholder’s adjusted tax basis such shares (generally the cost of obtaining such shares reduced by an previous distributions by the Company that are not characterized as dividends under the rules described above). For foreign tax credit limitation purposes, this gain or loss will generally be treated as United States source. U.S. Investors that are individuals may be eligible for reduced rates of taxation if the Ordinary Shares being sold or otherwise disposed of have been held for more than one year. The ability to deduct capital losses is subject to limitations.

- 41 -

Various provisions contained in the Code impose special taxes in certain circumstances on non-U.S. corporations and their shareholders. The following is a summary of certain provisions which could have an adverse impact on the Company and the U.S. Investors:

a. Personal Holding Companies

Sections 541 through 547 of the Code relate to the classification of certain corporations (including foreign corporations) as personal holding companies (“PHCs”) and the consequent taxation of such corporations on certain of their U.S.-sourced income (including certain types of foreign sourced income which are effectively connected with the conduct of a U.S. trade or business) to the extent amounts at least equal to such income are not distributed to their shareholders. A PHC is a corporation (i) more than 50% of the value of the stock of which is owned, directly or indirectly, by five or fewer individuals (without regard to their citizenship or residence), and (ii) which, if a foreign corporation, receives 60% or more of such U.S.-related gross income, as specially adjusted, from certain passive sources (such as dividends, interest, royalties or rents). If the Company is classified as a PHC, a tax will be levied at the rate of 15% on the Company’s undistributed U.S. taxable income.

While more than 50% of the Ordinary Shares may be treated as owned (either directly or indirectly) by five or fewer individuals, the Company intends to cause its indirect U.K. subsidiary, the owner of the U.S. branch, together with such corporation’s immediate U.K.-resident parent corporation, to distribute any amounts which would otherwise be characterized as “undistributed personal holding company income” in the hands of either corporation with the intent that such distributions would cause such distributed amounts to lose their character as “United States source” taxable income subject to the PHC tax.

b. Foreign Personal Holding Companies

Sections 551 through 558 of the Code relate to foreign personal holding companies (“FPHCs”) and impute undistributed income of certain foreign corporations to U.S. persons who are shareholders of such corporations. A foreign corporation will be classified as a FPHC if (i) five or fewer individuals, who are U.S. citizens or residents, directly or indirectly own more than 50% of the corporation’s stock (measured either by voting power or value) (the “shareholder test”) and (ii) the Company receives 60% or more of its gross income (regardless of source), as specially adjusted, from certain passive sources (the “income test”).

The Company believes that it is not currently and has not been a FPHC for any taxable year since its formation because for each such year either or both of the income test and the shareholder test were not met. It is possible that subsequent events would cause the Company to meet either or both of the income test and the shareholder test. The Company believes, however, it is unlikely that the shareholder test would be met, especially in view of the inclusion of certain transfer restrictions in the Company’s governing documents. See “Description of Securities”.

If the Company is classified as a FPHC after application of the shareholder test and the income test, a pro rata portion of its undistributed income would be imputed to its shareholders who are U.S. persons (including U.S. corporations) and would be taxable to such persons as a dividend, even if no cash dividend is actually paid. In that event (promptly after receiving an opinion of counsel or final determination) the Company intends to distribute to its shareholders sufficient amounts so that U.S. shareholders would receive cash at least equal to the product of 150% of the highest federal income tax rate which could apply to any U.S. shareholder and the amount of the dividend that would otherwise be imputed to them. If

- 42 -

the Company is classified as a FPHC in the year preceding the death of a shareholder, the Ordinary Shares held by such shareholder would obtain a tax basis equal to the lesser of their fair market value or their tax basis in the hands of the decedent.

c. Passive Foreign Investment Companies

Sections 1291 through 1297 of the Code relate to passive foreign investment companies (“PFICs”) and impose an interest charge on “excess distributions” made by a PFIC. A foreign corporation is a PFIC if (i) 75% or more of its gross income for the taxable year is passive income as defined under Section 954(c) of the Code (the “passive income test”), or (ii) 50% or more of the average value (or adjusted tax basis if the corporation is a CFC) of the assets held by the corporation during the taxable year consist of assets that produce or are held for the production of passive income (the “passive asset test”). Certain look-through rules take into account the assets and activities of related corporations from which the foreign corporation either receives income or in which it holds an interest. Although a determination whether a corporation is a PFIC is made annually, in general, once a corporation has been classified as a PFIC, it cannot thereafter lose its status as a PFIC.

A distribution from a PFIC will generally be characterized as an excess distribution to the extent such distribution, when combined with all other distributions received by the U.S. Holder in such taxable year, exceeds 125% of the average distributions received by such shareholder in the three preceding taxable years (or its holding period if shorter). Once the amount of the excess distribution is determined, it is allocated ratably to all days in the shareholder’s holding period for the shares of the PFIC. Amounts allocated to the current year or a year prior to the date upon which the corporation was a PFIC are included in the shareholder’s income as ordinary income. Amounts allocated to prior years in which the corporation was a PFIC are subject to the highest rate of tax for the year to which allocated, and each of the resulting amounts of tax is subject to an interest charge as if it were an underpayment of taxes for such tax year.

The Company does not believe that it should, in the current year or any prior year, be classified as a PFIC. Under Section 1296(c) of the Code for purposes of determining PFIC status, a foreign corporation is deemed to hold its proportionate share of the assets and to receive directly its proportionate share of the income of its subsidiaries in which it owns 25 percent or more of the stock (determined by value). The Company, through its more than 25 percent owned subsidiaries, is engaged in substantial manufacturing activities and holds few assets (and receives little income) which would be classified as passive assets or would be classified as passive income under the applicable authorities.

d. United States Information Reporting and Backup Withholding

In general, unless a shareholder is an exempt recipient such as a corporation, information reporting will apply to dividends paid in respect of the Ordinary Shares or the proceeds received on the sale, exchange or redemption of those Ordinary Shares paid to a shareholder within the United States and, in some cases, outside of the United States. Additionally, if a shareholder fails to provide such shareholder’s taxpayer identification number, or fails either to report in full dividend and interest income or to make certain certifications, such shareholder will be subject to “backup withholding” at a 28% rate. Any amounts withheld under the backup withholding rules will be allowed as a refund or a credit against such

- 43 -

shareholder’s United States federal income tax liability, provided that such shareholder furnishes the required information to the United States Internal Revenue Service.

2. British Virgin Islands Taxation

Under the laws of the BVI as currently in effect, a holder of Ordinary Shares who is not a resident of the British Virgin Islands is exempt from BVI income tax on gains realized during that year on sale or disposal of such shares; the British Virgin Islands does not impose a withholding tax on dividends paid by the Company.

There are no capital gains, gift or inheritance taxes levied by the British Virgin Islands. In addition, the Ordinary Shares are not subject to any transfer taxes, stamp duties or similar charges in the BVI.

There is no income tax treaty or convention currently in effect between the United States and the British Virgin Islands, nor is any such treaty or convention currently being negotiated.

F. Dividends and Paying Agents

Mellon Investor Services, LLC serves as the Company’s Dividend Disbursing Agent.

G. Statement by Experts

Item 11. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk.

A. Currency Fluctuation

1. Exchange Rate Information

The Consolidated Financial Statements of the Company are prepared in U.S. dollars. The financial statements of foreign subsidiaries are translated into U.S. dollars in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 52.

- 44 -

The Pound Sterling, Euro, Singapore dollar, Thai Baht, and Indonesian Rupiah are convertible into U.S. dollars at freely floating rates. The Hong Kong dollar and Malaysian Ringgit are pegged to and allowed to fluctuate within a narrow range against the value of the U.S. dollar. There are currently no restrictions on the flow of such currencies, except Renminbi and Malaysian Ringgit, between such countries and the United States.

Fluctuations in the value of foreign currencies cause U.S. dollar translated amounts to change in comparison with previous periods and, accordingly, the Company cannot quantify in any meaningful way, the effect of such fluctuations upon future income. This is due to the number of currencies involved, the constantly changing exposure in these currencies, and the fact that all foreign currencies do not react in the same manner against the U.S. dollar.

The Company is unable to predict whether the trends noted above would have a material effect in its future financial condition or results of operations and, if so, whether such an effect will be positive or negative.

3. Forward-Looking Statements

Certain written and oral statements made by the Company and its management may be considered “forward-looking statements” as defined under the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, including statements made in this Annual Report on Form 20-F, public releases of information and other filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Generally, words such as “anticipate”, “estimate”, “will”, “project”, “expect”, “believe” and similar expressions identify forward-looking statements. All forward-looking statements are subject to certain risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from the Company’s historical experience or our present expectations. Therefore, caution should be taken not to place undue reliance on any such forward-looking statements since such statements speak only as of the date when made. The Company undertakes no obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events, or otherwise.

Such forward-looking statements are subject to certain risks, uncertainties and assumptions, including without limitation to those identified below. Should one or more of these risks or uncertainties materialize, or should any of the underlying assumptions prove incorrect, actual results of current and future operations may vary materially from those anticipated, estimated or projected. Readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements, which speak only as of their respective dates.

B. Foreign Currency Risk

As of December 31, 2003, the Company had no open forward contracts or option contracts. The Company’s cash on hand as of December 31, 2003 was $20,282,000 of which $5,797,000 equivalent was held in various foreign currencies, such as Hong Kong dollar, Renminbi, Thai Baht, Malaysian Ringgit, Indonesian Rupiah, Singapore dollar, Euro and Pound Sterling. The U.S. dollar equivalents of the cash in foreign currencies may vary subject to exchange rate fluctuation.

The Company may elect to hedge the foreign currency risk or review the hedging strategy as and when required and the Company cannot be assured that it will not suffer losses in the future as a result of the hedging activities.

- 46 -

C. Interest Rate Fluctuations

The Company’s interest expenses and income are sensitive to change in interest rates. The Company had short-term debts and long-term debts of $35,965,000 as of December 31, 2003, bearing various rates of interest, any fluctuation in the interest rate will have direct impact on the Company’s interest expenses.

The Company will be exposed to interest rate fluctuations on any borrowings under the various loan facilities and any change in interest rate could affect its results of operations and cash flows. The potential effect of a hypothetical 0.5% increase in interest rate for year 2003 outstanding indebtedness would be a reduction in net income of approximately $180,000.

At December 31, 2002, the Company’s U.S. operation was not in compliance with the fiscal year ended audited financial statements delivery time period covenants. This violation was waived by the Senior Lender on March 28, 2003.

In 2002, the Company’s Wisconsin operation was not in compliance with the requirement to file its audited financial statements within 120 days to the finance company and the existing covenant violation was subsequently waived.

The Company also violated the covenant of the Senior Lender Loan requiring the submission of audited financial statements within 90 days of December 31, 2002. The Senior Lender issued a waiver with respect to this violation.

Item 14. Material Modifications to the Rights of Security Holders and Use of Proceeds.

Not applicable.

Item 15. Controls and Procedures

A. Evaluation of disclosure controls and procedures

Within the 90 days prior to the date of this annual report on Form 20-F, we evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure and procedures (“disclosure controls”), and our internal controls and procedures for financial reporting (“internal controls”). Disclosure controls mean those controls and other procedures that are designed for the

- 47 -

purpose of ensuring that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, such as this annual report, is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms. Internal controls are procedures designed for the purpose of providing reasonable assurance that our transactions are properly authorized, our assets are safeguarded against unauthorized or improper use and our transactions are properly recorded and reported, all to permit the preparation of our financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles. This evaluation was performed under the supervision and with the participation of management including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer.

Immediately following the signature pages of this annual report are “certifications” of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, which are required to be furnished by SEC rules adopted pursuant to Section 302 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002. The information discussed in this section of our annual report relates to the evaluations of disclosure controls and internal controls referenced in these certifications and should be read in conjunction with these certifications.

Our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, does not expect that our disclosure controls or our internal controls will prevent or detect all error and all fraud. A control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met. Further, the design of a control system must reflect the reality of resource constraints; accordingly the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs.

Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and possible misstatements due to fraud or error, if any, within our company have been detected. Among the inherent limitations in controls are the potential for erroneous judgments and decisions or simple errors or mistakes in the chain of recording, processing, summarizing or reporting information. Additionally, controls can be circumvented by the intentional acts of individuals or multiple persons acting in concert, or by management override. The design of any system of controls also is based in part on assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and we can give no assurance that our controls as designed will succeed in achieving their stated goals under all potential future conditions; over time, controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

In conjunction with its 2003 audit of our financial statements, our independent accountants Deloitte & Touche LLP, identified certain items they described as “reportable conditions,” relating primarily to the controls over the financial reporting process. The Company is implementing improvements to its policies and is evaluating the Company’s internal controls, both to prepare our Company to comply with the new annual internal controls certification that will be required as of December 31, 2005 pursuant to Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 and related SEC rulemaking, as well as to assist the Company in conforming to certain “best practices” recommendations with respect to internal controls generally.

In accordance with SEC requirements, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer note that, since the date of their above-referenced evaluation, otherwise than as discussed above, there have been no significant changes in our internal controls or in other factors that could significantly affect our internal controls, including any corrective actions with regard to significant deficiencies and material weaknesses.

- 48 -

Based on the evaluation discussed above, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that, subject to the disclosures and limitations noted above, our disclosure controls are effective to timely alert management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, to material information relating to its consolidated subsidiaries, required to be included in the Company’s reports filed under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.

B. Change in internal controls

There have been no significant changes in the Company’s internal controls or in other factors that could significantly affect internal controls subsequent to the date the Company carried out this evaluation.
