Part I. FINANCIAL INFORMATION
Item 1. Financial Statements
The following amended consolidated financial statements of the
Registrant are attached to this Form 10-QSB/A:
1. Interim Balance Sheet as of April 30, 1999 and
Balance Sheet as of October 31, 1998.
2. Interim Statements of Operations for the three and
six month periods ending April 30, 1999 and April 30,
1998.
3. Interim Statements of Cash Flows for the sixth month
periods ending April 30, 1999 and April 30, 1998.
The amended Financial Statements reflect all adjustments which are, in
the opinion of management, necessary to a fair statement of results for the
periods presented.
Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition
and Results of Operation
During the second quarter of fiscal 1999 ended April 30, 1999, the
Company had a net loss of $395,000 compared to net income for the same period in
the prior year of $238,000. For the six month period ended April 30, 1999, the
Company had a net loss of $335,000 compared to a net profit of $563,000 for the
same period of 1998. The decline in income was the result principally of a
decline in revenues from the sale of mylar balloons for the fiscal year to date
compared to fiscal 1998 of approximately $1.3 million, and lowered pricing due
to market pressures. Management believes the decline is the result of general
industry conditions causing weakness in mylar balloon sales, including the
bankruptcy reorganization of one principal party good retail chain and financial
difficulties of another.
Income of the Company was also affected by increases in depreciation
expense arising from investment in machinery and equipment, and increases in
interest costs arising from increased levels of borrowing.
The Company's recent capital investments and its efforts have been
directed to increasing its revenues from the sale of printed, laminated and
specialty film products, and reducing the level of the Company's reliance on
mylar balloon sales.

Results of Operations
Net Sales. For the fiscal quarter ended April 30, 1999, net sales were
$4,862,000, as compared to sales of $5,492,000 for the second quarter of 1998.
The decline in sales is mainly due to a decrease in metallized balloon sales of
$610,000. Net sales for the first six months of fiscal 1999 were $9,850,000, as
compared to sales of $11,332,000 for the same period in 1998. The decline in
metallized balloon sales was the primary reason for the decrease in overall
sales.
Cost of Sales. For the fiscal quarter ended April 30, 1999, cost of
sales increased to 74.1% of net sales as compared to 58.9% of net sales in the
second fiscal quarter of 1998. The increase was a result of lower production
volumes and costs incurred in a new equipment project. Cost of goods sold were
67.8% of net sales for the first six months of fiscal 1999, as compared to 59.1%
for the same period of 1998.
Administrative. For the fiscal quarter ended April 30, 1999,
administrative expenses were $557,000 or 11.5% of sales as compared to $697,000,
or 12.7% of sales for the second fiscal quarter of 1998. For the first six
months of fiscal 1999, administrative expenses were $1,089,000 or 11.1% of sales
as compared to $1,223,000, or 10.8% of sales for the same period of 1998. The
decreases were due to reduced phone expenses, lower legal costs, and reduced
consulting fees.
Selling. For the fiscal quarter ended April 30, 1999, selling expenses
were $656,000 or 13.5% of sales, as compared to $708,000, or 12.9% of net sales
for the second fiscal quarter of 1998. For the first six months of fiscal 1999,
selling expenses were $1,301,000 or 13.2% of sales as compared to $1,449,000, or
12.8% of net sales for the same period of 1998. The decline in selling expense
dollars is primarily related to the decline in sales volume and the selling
expenses directly associated with those sales.
Advertising and Marketing. For the fiscal quarter ended April 30, 1999,
advertising and marketing expenses were $400,000 or 8.2% of net sales as
compared to $462,000 or 8.4% of net sales in the second fiscal quarter of 1998.
For the first six months of fiscal 1999, advertising and marketing expenses were
$878,000 or 8.9% of sales as compared to $941,000, or 8.3% of net sales for the
same period of 1998. The decrease in advertising and marketing expense dollars
was primarily related to changes in programs for national accounts, resulting in
lower servicing costs and rebates to customers.
Other Income or Expense. Interest expense increased to $214,000 for the
quarter ended April 30, 1999, as compared to $191,000 for the second fiscal
quarter of 1998. Interest expense increased to $435,000 for the six months ended
April 30, 1999, as compared to $368,000 for the second fiscal quarter of 1998.
The increased interest expense is a result of increases in the level of both
long term and short term borrowings.
Net Income or Loss. For the fiscal quarter ended April 30, 1999, the
Company had a loss of $479,000 as compared to income before taxes of $335,000
for the second fiscal quarter of 1998. The income tax benefit for the second
quarter of fiscal 1999 was $84,000, resulting in a
3
<PAGE>
net loss of $395,000. The provision for income tax for the second quarter of
fiscal 1998 was $98,000, resulting in net income of $238,000. For the six months
ended April 30, 1999, the net loss was $335,000 as compared to a net profit of
$563,000 for the first six months of fiscal 1998.
Financial Condition
Liquidity and Capital Resources. Cash flow provided by operations
during the six months ended April 30, 1999 was $1,494,000, which was affected by
a decrease in inventory for the period of almost $1.6 million. During the first
six months of 1998, cash flows used in operations was $2,437,000, mainly as a
result of increased sales and resulting increases in accounts receivable and
inventory.
Investment Activities. During the six months ended April 30, 1999 and
April 30, 1998, the Company invested $1,632,000 and $2,550,000, respectively, in
machinery and equipment, and its Mexican supplier of latex balloons.
Financing Activities. For the six months ended April 30, 1999, the
Company generated $437,000 in financing activities, primarily as a result of
proceeds from the issuance of long term debt. Cash flow provided by financing
activities for the six months ended April 30, 1998 was $6,045,000 resulting
primarily from the proceeds of the Company's initial public offering of its
Common Stock in November 1997.
At April 30, 1999, the Company maintained a cash balance of $518,000 .
The Company's current cash management strategy includes maintaining minimal cash
balances and utilizing the revolving line of credit for liquidity. At October
31, 1998, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of $235,000. At April 30,
1999, the Company had working capital of $2,466,000, and at October 31, 1998,
working capital was $3,313,000.
The Company believes that existing capital resources and cash generated
from operations, will be sufficient to meet the Company's requirements for at
least 12 months.
Seasonality. In the mylar product line, sales have historically been
seasonal with approximately 20% to 27% of annual sales of mylar being generated
in December and January and 11% to 13% of annual mylar sales being generated in
June and July in recent years. The sale of latex balloons and laminated film
products have not historically been seasonal.

Note 1 - Basis of Presentation
The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared
in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim
financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-QSB and Article 10 of
Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and
footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete
financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting
of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have
been included. Operating results for the six-month period ended April 30, 1999
are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year
ended October 31, 1999. For further information, refer to the consolidated
financial statements and footnotes thereto included in the Registrant Company
and Subsidiaries' annual report on Form 10-KSB for the year ended October 31,
1998.
Note 2 - Earnings Per Share
The Company adopted SFAS No. 128, "Earnings per Share," for the year ended
October 31, 1998. Adoption of this pronouncement did not have a material impact
on the Company's financial statements.
Basic earnings per share is computed by dividing the income available to common
shareholders, net earnings less preferred stock dividends, by the weighted
average number of shares of common stock outstanding during each period.
Diluted earnings per share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted
average number of shares of common stock and common stock equivalents (stock
options and warrants), unless anti-dilutive, during each period.
Earnings per share for the periods ended April 30, 1999 and 1998 was computed as
follows:
