1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
a) Basis of Consolidated Financial Statements Presentation
These Interim Consolidated Financial Statements have been prepared in accordance
with Form 10-QSB specifications and, therefore, do not include all information
and footnotes normally shown in full annual or Interim Financial Statements.
These financial statements consolidate, using the purchase method, the accounts
of the company and its two wholly-owned subsidiaries, Diamonair, Inc. and Aviv,
Inc. All material intercompany accounts have been eliminated.
b) Principal Activities
The company was incorporated in Canada on October 18, 1979. The company is
principally engaged in the production and trading of jewelry in Canada and the
United States of America.
c) Cash and Bank Indebtedness
Cash and bank indebtedness includes cash in bank, amounts due to banks, and any
other highly liquid investments purchased with a maturity of three months or
less. The carring amount approimates fair valur brcause of the short maturity of
those instruments.
d) Other Financial Instruments
The carrying amount of the company's accounts receivable and approximate fair
value because of the short maturity of these instruments.
e) Long-term Financial Instruments
The fair value of each of the company's long-term financial assets and debt
instruments is based on the amount of future cash flows associated with each
instrument discounted using an estimate of what the company's current borrowing
rate for similar instruments of comparable maturity would be.
f) Inventory
Raw materials and work-in-process are valued at the lower of cost (first-in,
first-out basis) or market.
Finished goods are valued at the lower of cost or market. Cost is calculated
using selling price less normal gross margin.
g) Property, Plant and Equipment
Property, plant and equipment are recorded at cost and are mainly depreciated on
the declining balance basis over their estimated useful lives.
<PAGE>
h) Goodwill
Goodwill is the excess of cost over the value of tangible assets acquired. It is
amortized on the straight-line basis over 25 to 40 years.
i) Sales
Sales represent the invoiced value of goods supplied to customers. Sales are
recognized upon delivery of goods and passage of title to customers. Sales are
translated to US dollars for reporting purposes only.
j) Foreign Currency Translation
The translation of the Interim Financial Statements from Canadian dollars
("CDN$") into United States dollars is performed for the convenience of the
reader. Balance Sheet accounts are translated using closing exchange rates in
effect at the Balance Sheet date and income and expense accounts are translated
using an average exchange rate prevailing during each reporting period. No
representation is made that the Canadian dollar amounts could have been, or
could be, converted into United States dollars at the rates on the respective
dates and or at any other certain rates. Adjustments resulting from the
translation are included in the cumulative translation adjustments in
stockholders' equity.
k) Use of Estimates
The preparation of Interim Financial Statements requires management to make
estimates and assumptions that affect certain reported amounts of assets and
liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of
the Interim Financial Statements and the reported amounts of revenues and
expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those
estimates.
2. CASH SURRENDER VALUE OF LIFE INSURANCE
The surrender value of cash insurance represents the value of life insurance
policies of former directors of Aviv, Inc.
3. OTHER ASSETS
Other assets represent the value of a six year contract of a supplier and it is
depreciated over the life of the contract.
4. BANK INDEBTEDNESS
The bank indebtedness bears interest at the bank's prime lending rate plus 3/4%
per annum. As security, the company has provided a general assignment of
accounts receivable, a general security agreement constituting a first charge
over all present and future personal property of the company and an assignment
of key man life insurance of a director payable to the bank. The facility
contains covenants specifying minimum and maximum financial ratios. The
agreement contains restrictions on changes in ownership and line of business, on
further encumbrances of assets and on the guarantees and other contingent
liabilities.

The company has adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 130
"reporting Comprehensive Income" as of January 1, 1998 which requires new
standards for reporting and display of comprehensive income and its components

7. NET INCOME PER COMMON SHARE
Net income per common share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted
average number of common shares outstanding.
Fully diluted income per share is computed by dividing net income by the
weighted average number of shares calculated using the "treasury stock" method.
<PAGE>
ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS.
The statements contained in this filing that are not historical are forward
looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act and
Section 21E of the Exchange Act, including statements regarding the Company's
expectations, liquidity, anticipated cash needs and availability and anticipated
expense levels. All forward looking statements included in this report are based
on information available to the Company on the date hereof, and the Company
assumes no obligation to update any such forward looking statement. It is
important to note that the Company's actual results could differ materially from
those in such forward looking statements.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Three and Six Months Ended June 30, 1999 Compared to the Three and Six Months
Ended June 30, 1998.
Revenues for the three months ended June 30, 1999 were $8.8 million, an increase
of over 42% over the second quarter of 1998 revenues of $6.1 million. Year to
date revenue for the period ended June 30, 1999 was $16.1 million, an increase
of over 8% over the comparable six month period ended June 30, 1998. This
increase reflects the success of our efforts to diversify the company's
distribution channels and broaden our product lines. The largest growth came
from the home shopping networks which now represent over one third of D.G.'s
revenues.
Gross profit for the second quarter of 1999 was $2.9 million which is an
increase of $900,000 (44%) over the second quarter of 1998. The year to date
gross profit increased in 1999 by approximately $900,000 (20%) over the same
period in 1998. This was mainly attributed to the increase in sales volume;
gross profit also increased as a percentage of sales. For the quarter ended June
30, 1999 gross profit increased from 32.96% in 1998 to 33.29% in 1999. The year
to date gross profit percentage increased from 32.96% in 1998 to 33.29% in 1999.
The year to date gross profit percentage increased from 29.21% in 1998 to 32.47%
in 1999.
Selling expenses decreased in the quarter by approximately $120,000 from $
573,321 in 1998 to $453,413 in 1999 (20.9%). The decrease for the six months
ended June 30, 1999 compared to the same period last year was approximately
$319,000 or 26.6%.
Administrative expenses of $649,457 for the six months ended June 30, 1999 were
9.1% lower than the six months ended June 30, 1998. The savings occurred mostly
in the first quarter of the year; they were approximately equal in the second
quarters.
Interest expense decreased for the three months ended June 30, 1999 by
approximately $40,000 as compared to the three months ended June 30, 1998.
Interest expense decreased by approximately $120,000 for the six months ended
June 30, 1999 as compared to the same period in the previous year. The decrease
was due mainly to decreases in the operating line of credit due to cash inflows
from accounts receivable in the first quarter and proceeds of the sale of shares
in the second quarter.
As a result of the above factors, net income for the second quarter of 1999
increased by approximately 8.4% to $1,302,760 (16.7% and $2,328,764 year to date
over 1998).
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
The company had a net use of cash from operations of $3,383,286 for the six
months ended June 30, 1999 mainly as result of higher accounts receivables and a
reduction in accounts payables at the end of the period. The use of cash was
reduced both by net income in the period and a decrease in inventories.
<PAGE>
Capital spending increased for some equipment, but mainly because of two new
computer systems (at D.G. Jewelry in Toronto and at Diamonair Inc. in New
Jersey). These systems (hardware and software) are Y2000 compliant. A large
portion of the capital spending will be converted to operating leases.
The company also received net proceeds from the issuance of capital stock. The
main proceeds (approximately $3,745,000) came from the private placement in May,
1999 of 615, 385 shares. Other proceeds came from the exercise of stock options
and the conversion of approximately $325,000 in loans payable to the former
directors of Aviv Inc. through the issuance of 45,145 shares.
YEAR 2000 BUSINESS SYSTEM IMPLEMENTATION
As many computer systems and other equipment with embedded chips or processes
(collectively, "Business Systems") use only two digits to represent the year,
they may be unable to process accurately certain data before, during or after
the year 2000. As a result , business and governmental entities are at risk for
possible miscalculations or systems failures causing disruptions in their
business operations. The company has committed to and is in the process of
implementing a Y2K readiness program, with the objective of having all of their
significant Business Systems, including those that affect facilities and
manufacturing activities, functioning properly, well in advance of January 1,
2000.
