Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
For the Three Months Ending September 30, 1996
Note 1 - Basis of Presentation
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared by
Tollycraft Yacht Corporation without audit, pursuant to the
rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission.
Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in
financial statements prepared in accordance with generally
accepted accounting principles have been condensed or omitted
pursuant to such rules and regulations.
The financial information presented herein reflects all normal
recurring adjustments which are, in the opinion of management,
necessary for fair presentation of the results for the interim
periods presented. The results for the interim periods are not
necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full
year.
The presentation of financial statements in conformity with
generally accepted accounting principles requires management to
make estimates and assumptions that affect reported amounts of
assets, liabilities, income and expenses and disclosure of other
accounting information. Future events could alter such
estimates.
Note 2 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
The Company and Acquisitions
Tollycraft Yacht Corporation (the "Company") was incorporated
under the laws of the State of Minnesota on December 7, 1992.
The Company changed its name from Child Guard Corporation in
January 1996. Also in January 1996 the Company acquired all of
the outstanding common stock of Tollycraft Acquisition
Corporation ("TAC"), a Washington corporation incorporated on
February 4, 1994.
The acquisition by the Company of TAC has been accounted for as a
pooling of interests. Except where otherwise indicated,
references to the Company in these financial statements and notes
thereto include the activities of TAC.
Nature of business
Tollycraft Yacht Corporation (the "Company"), is engaged in the
manufacture and distribution of luxury motor yachts.
Cash
The Company periodically throughout the period maintained cash
balances in its bank accounts in excess of federally insured
limits.
Inventories
Inventories are valued at the lower of average cost or market.
Equipment
Equipment is valued at cost. Depreciation of equipment is
provided using the straight-line method over the estimated useful
lives of the assets. Additions and improvements, including
patterns and molds for yacht production which have been produced
in house, are capitalized at cost.
TOLLYCRAFT YACHT CORPORATION
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (continued)
Note 2 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)
Estimated Warranties
The Company records an accrual at the time of sale of each yacht
for estimated warranty claims. There is a general one year
parts and labor warranty to the original owner for defects in
material and workmanship. In addition, there is a 15 year
transferable limited warranty for structural defects in all
Tollycraft built hulls, deck bridges, stringers, and bulkheads.
Revenue Recognition
Revenue is recognized using the percentage-of-completion method.
This method is measured by comparing the percentage of costs
incurred to date to the estimated total cost for each finished
yacht. Yacht costs include all direct material costs, direct
labor costs, and indirect manufacturing costs such as indirect
labor, supplies, small tools, and other indirect manufacturing
overhead costs. Selling, general and administrative costs, and
interest on indebtedness are charged to expense as incurred.
Changes in job performance, job conditions, and estimated
profitability may result in revisions to estimated costs and
income, which are recognized in the period in which the revisions
are determined.
The current asset "Costs incurred and income recognized in excess
of billings on uncompleted contracts," represents costs and
estimated contract profits for yachts in process.
Pension and profit sharing plans
Union and non-union employees participate in a pension plan which
qualifies under Section 401(k) of the Internal Revenue Code. The
Company is not required and has not made any contributions to the
plan.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (continued)
Note 4 - Work-in-process Financing
The Company has available a $3,000,000 line-of-credit with
Caterpillar Financial Services Corporation. Under the terms of

Interest on borrowings are payable monthly at a variable rate.
Borrowings are collaterized by specific vessels with assigned
hull numbers upon which Caterpillar Financial Services has
advanced funds and filed specific UCC-1's. Outstanding
borrowings at September 30, 1996 were $ 3,000,000.
The Company is also required to maintain a minimum level of
stockholder's equity and a ratio of total liabilities to
stockholders equity. At September 30, 1996, the Company was in
violation of these minimum requirements.
Note 5 - Notes Payable
The Company has a line-of-credit with Vera Corporation for
working capital purposes. Interest on the borrowings are payable

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (continued)
Note 9 - Provision for Income Taxes
Deferred income taxes are recognized for all significant
temporary differences between the tax and financial statement
basis of assets and liabilities. The classification of the
resulting deferred tax assets and liabilities is based upon the
classification of the related balance sheet asset or liability.
Deferred tax assets and liabilities result principally from the
Company's net operating loss carryforwards, differences in
depreciation methods for tax purposes and other temporary
differences. A valuation allowance has been created for purposes
of financial reporting.
Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis or Plan of Operation
Tollycraft Yacht Corporation is the successor owner of the
original manufacturer of Tollycraft Yachts. The stockholders of
Tollycraft Yacht Corporation have formed a new management group
with specific goals including (1) The commitment to maintain
customer and dealer relationships, (2) Shape maximum customer
confidence, (3) Invest in updating and redesigning the current
product line, (4) Develop a new series of yachts, (5)
Streamline management, (6) Expand the dealer network.
Significant expenses have been incurred to date to implement
these goals.
In the fall of 1996 Tollycraft Yacht Corporation is continuing
efforts to raise funds in order to proceed with its business
plan. The Company is considering various alternatives to
improve its financial position, meet ongoing trade obligations,
pay delinquent tax balances, and fund capital expenditure
requirements including converting current debt to equity through
the issuance of common shares, and the sale of common shares to
raise working capital. The Company has engaged the services of
professional advisors to perform these investment activities. In
addition, another supplier of marine engines has expressed an
interest in providing working capital funding for projects that
contain its products.
Chairman and Chief Executive Officer Peter Hobbs has announced
the organization of the Capital Formation Committee with the
priority goal of generating new capital funding for the Company.
Mr. Hobbs will be assisted by President and Chief Operating
Officer D.R. Cooley and five additional individuals from the
international investment banking community.
Results of Operations:
The Company has not had sufficient working capital to continue
operations in the third quarter. In July, the manufacturing
employees and non-essential support staff were laid off and
manufacturing ceased.
Current results reflect the halting of operations in the third
quarter. There was a small amount of manufacturing activity prior
to the closure. The majority of the manufacturing expenses
incurred are fixed costs relating to plant overhead expenses and
some wages for essential personnel.
In order to begin production the Company is in need of additional
capital to build production tooling, finance inventory and
provide working capital. The Company is dependent on external
sources of liquidity until projected levels of production and
improvements in direct costs are achieved which will return the
Company to profitability and a positive cash flow. A material
commitment for capital expenditures and working capital is
necessary to meet the projected goals. The expected source for a
majority of the funds is from a private placement stock offering
closely followed by a public stock offering.
During the third quarter of 1996 union employees accepted a
contract effective through June of 1998. After several weeks of
negotiations, the members passed a contract calling for 1)
average wage reductions of 20%, 2) elimination of certain
holidays, 3) reduction of vacation benefits, 4) employee
contributions to medical plans, and 5) a reduction of work
categories. The concessions are expected to result in direct
labor savings of approximately 23%.
Management continues to put emphasis on the following steps to
improve the operations of the Company:
1. Increased basic pricing on current models for greater profit
margins to reflect the higher quality products being
manufactured.
2. Select new materials to upgrade the quality of interiors while
emphasizing production efficiency.
3. Complete the design for a new line of yachts to augment the
current models offered. The new yachts are engineered for more
efficient production and priced at greater profit margins.
4. Continue developing relationships with dealers that are
capable of providing their own inventory financing.
5. Increase the dealer network for nationwide marketing
capability to increase sales volume and reach economies of scale.
6. Redesign manufacturing processes to make production more
efficient.
7. Modernize the manufacturing plant for increased capacity and
efficiency of material flow.
8. Complete the development of a labor tracking system to monitor
and reduce direct labor costs.
Financial Condition:
During the third quarter of 1996, the Company continued to incur
operating losses of $643,680 which increased the negative net
worth to ($9,418,901). The cumulative losses of the Company
continue to be financed mainly through current liabilities.
Current liabilities of $11,632,602 exceed current assets of
$2,149,184 resulting in a current ratio of .18. Current
liabilities include a revolving credit facility of $3,000,000
from a marine engine supplier to assist financing of
work-in-process inventories and another working capital loan from
a finance company. The remaining current liabilities are trade
payables, deposits from customers, and accrued payroll related
expenses and undeposited payroll taxes.
The Company has not been able to make timely payments to trade
suppliers and various taxing authorities. Deferred payment terms
have been negotiated with the taxing authorities and the vast
majority of trade vendors. Material suppliers have indicated a
willingness to provide the Company with its raw material needs on
a COD basis.
Long-term debt of $1,390,833 (including current maturities) is
mainly obligations assumed by in exchange for miscellaneous
machinery and equipment as well as the molds and tooling
necessary to manufacture the current line of yachts. Management
believes the book value of these assets is significantly
understated when considering replacement cost values and the
potential earnings capability of the tooling.
There were no significant capital expenditures during the third
quarter of 1996. In prior quarters a significant amount of
capital was invested in the construction of molds and tooling for
a new 48' pilothouse motoryacht. This new yacht design is
planned to improve manufacturing processes and contribute a
larger gross margin to the product mix. Funds for these capital
expenditures have been provided through current operations with a
corresponding increase in current debt. In order to establish
the Company as a viable competitor in the industry, management
has established an aggressive time schedule to upgrade existing
molds and tooling and manufacture additional molds and tooling
for the newly designed line of yachts. Total capital
expenditures necessary for completion of the product line upgrade
and expansion is approximately $2,650,000. The Company is
dependent on external sources of funding to complete the plan.
