Notes to Condensed Financial Statements
(All information for the three and six month periods ended
June 30, 1998 and 1997 is unaudited)
NOTE 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The significant accounting policies and practices followed by the Company are
as follows:
DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS: Brass Eagle Inc. (the 'Company' or 'Brass Eagle') is
a leading manufacturer of paintball guns and other paintball products. The
Company sells its products through both foreign and major national domestic
retailers. The financial statements have been prepared using certain estimates
and allocations (see below) and include only the accounts of Brass Eagle.
INTERIM RESULTS (UNAUDITED): The accompanying condensed balance sheet at June
30, 1998 and the condensed statements of operations and condensed cash flows
for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 1998 and 1997 are unaudited.
In the opinion of management, these statements have been prepared on the same
basis as the audited financial statements and include all adjustments,
consisting of only normal recurring adjustments necessary for the fair
presentation of the results of the interim periods. The data disclosed in
these notes to the financial statements for those interim periods are also
unaudited. The results of operations for the three and six month periods ended
June 30, 1998 are not necessarily indicative of the results expected for the
full calendar year. Because all of the disclosures required by generally
accepted accounting principles are not included, these interim statements
should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto
contained in the Company's 1997 Annual Report.
ALLOCATIONS AND USE OF ESTIMATES: During the three month period ended June 30,
1997 Brass Eagle shared operational and administrative facilities with Daisy
Manufacturing Company ('Daisy'). As a result, certain manufacturing, selling,
and administrative expenses had to be allocated from Daisy to Brass Eagle.
Allocations were based on various activities including quantity of inventory
produced, quantity of inventory received, number of shipments, headcount, and
estimates of time spent on Brass Eagle's paintball related operations.
Management believes that these allocations are based on a reasonable method.
Sales, returns, material cost, and direct labor cost were not allocated because
they could be specifically identified to Brass Eagle. Since November of 1997
the Company has been operating on a stand-alone basis and no longer shares
administrative or operating facilities with Daisy; therefore, no allocations
were required for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 1998.
Management must make estimates and assumptions in preparing financial
statements that affect the amounts reported therein and the disclosures
provided. These estimates, allocations, and assumptions may change in the
future and future results could differ.

(All information for the three and six month periods ended

NOTE 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)
EARNINGS PER SHARE: The Company has adopted the provisions of the Securities
and Exchange Commission Staff Accounting Bulletin (SAB 98) issued in February,
1998. Accordingly, the Company has included a presentation of basic and pro
forma basic earnings per share. The pro forma basic earnings per share
considers the weighted average shares outstanding during the period plus the
weighted average number of shares issued in the initial public offering whose
proceeds would have been used to pay the divisional equity to Daisy as if the
shares had been outstanding in all periods presented. Additionally, SAB 98
requires that options issued within one year of the initial public offering be
treated similar to a stock split as of the beginning of the period.
NOTE 2 - INVENTORIES
Inventories consist of the following components (in thousands):

NOTE 3 - NONCASH TRANSACTIONS
The company acquired the rights to the hyberball concept and certain other
assets in exchange for trade receivables of $371,000. The rights to the
hyperball concept are being amortized over 60 months.
NOTE 4 - SUBSEQUENT EVENT
On July 13, 1998 the Company received a financing commitment from NationsBank.
The commitment provides the company with a line of credit equal to 75% of
eligible accounts receivables up to a maximum of $10.0 million. Outstanding
borrowings will bear interest at the LIBOR rate plus the applicable margin, as
defined (between 125 and 155 basis points). The commitment provides that the
Company will maintain a ratio of funded debt to EBITDA of no more than 3.0 to
1.0. The commitment to advance funds expires on July 1, 2001. The Company has
not borrowed against the line of credit.

NOTE 5 - NEW ACCOUNTING STANDARD
In February, 1998 the Financial Accounting Standards Board ('FASB') issued
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 132, 'Employers' Disclosure
about Pensions and Other Postretirement Benefits' ('SFAS No. 132'). This
statement revises employers' disclosures about pensions and other
postretirement benefit plans but does not change the measurement or recognition
of those plans. It standardizes the disclosure requirements to the extent
practicable, requires additional information on changes in the benefit
obligations and fair values of plan assets that will facilitate financial
analysis and eliminates certain disclosures that are no longer as useful as
they were when FASB Statements No. 87, Employers' Accounting for Pensions, No.
88, Employers' Accounting for Settlements and Curtailments of Defined Benefit
Pension Plans and for Termination Benefits, and No. 106, Employers' Accounting
for Postretirement Benefits Other Than Pensions, were issued. This statement
is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 1997.
In March, 1998 the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants
('AICPA'), issued Statement of Position 98-1, 'Accounting for the Costs of
Computer Software Developed or Obtained for Internal Use' ('SOP 98-1'). This
statement is effective for financial statements for fiscal years beginning
after December 15, 1998. Earlier application is encouraged in fiscal years for
which annual financial statements have not been issued. The Company
implemented SOP 98-1 in the first quarter of 1998. SOP 98-1 did not have a
material impact on the Company's financial condition or results of operations.

ITEM 2. - MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
The following discussion should be read in conjunction with the accompanying
condensed financial statements for the three and six month periods ended June
30, 1998 and June 30, 1997 and the 1997 Annual Report.
SPECIAL NOTE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
Certain statements in this filing and elsewhere (such as in other filings
by the Company with the Securities and Exchange Commission ('SEC'), press
releases, presentations by the company or its management and oral statements)
may constitute 'forward-looking statements' within the meaning of the Private
Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Such statements may include, among
other things, statements regarding the Company's financial position, results of
operations, market position, product development, regulatory matters, growth
opportunities and growth rates, acquisition and divestiture opportunities, and
other similar forecasts and statements of expectation. Words such as
'expects,' 'anticipates,' 'intends,' 'plans,' 'believes,' 'seeks,' 'estimates'
and 'should,' and variations of these words and similar expressions, are
intended to identify these forward-looking statements. Such statements are not
statements of historical fact. Rather, they are based on the Company's
estimates, assumptions, projections and current expectations, and are not
guarantees of future performance. The Company disclaims any obligation to
update or revise any forward-looking statement based upon the occurrence of
future events, the receipt of new information, or otherwise. Such forward-
looking statements involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties, and other
factors which may cause the actual results, performance or achievements of the
company to be materially different from any future results, performance or
achievements expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. Factors
that could cause the company's actual results to differ materially from the
results, projections and expectations expressed in the forward-looking
statements include, among others, the following possibilities: (i) intensifying
competition, including specifically the intensification of price competition,
the entry of new competitors and the introduction of new products by new and
existing competitors; (ii) failure to obtain new customers or retain existing
customers; (iii) inability to carry out marketing and sales plans; (iv) loss of
key executives; (v) general economic and business conditions which are less
favorable than expected; and (vi) unanticipated changes in industry trends.

Net income 13.2% 9.6% 10.9% 9.4%
</TABLE>
THREE MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 1998 COMPARED TO THREE MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 1997
SALES. Sales increased by 160.0% to $19.5 million for the three months ended
June 30, 1998 compared to $7.5 million in the three months ended June 30, 1997.
The increase in sales was due to the increased popularity of paintball play,
increased domestic distribution to mass merchandisers and increased unit volume
for all products.
GROSS PROFIT. Gross profit as a percentage of net sales increased to 37.4% for
the three months ended June 30, 1998; as compared to 31.8% for the three months
ended June 30, 1997. This increase was primarily due to a change in the
product mix and increased absorption of fixed overhead, which resulted in
higher gross profit percentages.
OPERATING EXPENSES. Operating expenses increased by 166.7% to $3.2 million in
the three months ended June 30, 1998 compared to $1.2 million in the three
months ended June 30, 1997. This represented an increase from 15.4% of sales
to 16.6% of sales as a result of additional compensation related to increased
staffing and related benefits for the three months ended June 30, 1998.
OPERATING INCOME. Operating income increased by 241.7% to $4.1 million in the
three months ended June 30, 1998 as compared to $1.2 million in the three
months ended June 30, 1997. The increase was primarily due to higher unit
sales volume and improved gross profit percentages.

BRASS EAGLE INC.
RESULTS OF OPERATION (Continued)
INTEREST. The Company recorded interest income of $90,000 in the three months
ended June 30, 1998 as compared to interest expense of $62,000 in the three
months ended June 30, 1997. The change was primarily due to investment income
from the net proceeds of the Initial Public Offering versus interest expense on
outstanding borrowings in 1997.
INCOME TAX RATE. The Company's effective federal and state income tax rate was
38.3% in the three months ended June 30, 1998 and 1997.
SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 1998 COMPARED TO SIX MONTH ENDED JUNE 30, 1997
SALES. Sales increased by 195.8% to $35.2 million for the first six months of
1997 compared to $11.9 million the first six months of 1997. The increase in
sales was primarily due to higher unit volume of all products due to increased
popularity of paintball play and increased domestic distribution to mass
merchandisers.
GROSS PROFIT. Gross profit as a percentage of net sales increased to 36.1% for
the first six months of 1998 compared to 32.9% for the first six months of 1997
primarily due to product mix changes and increased absorption of fixed overhead
which resulted in a higher gross profit percentage.
OPERATING EXPENSES. Operating expenses increased by 235.0% to $6.7 million the
first six months of 1998 compared to $2.0 million in the first six months of
1997. This represented an increase from 16.6% of sales to 19.0% of sales as a
result of an additional allowance for doubtful accounts to correspond with the
increases in sales and receivables, additional outside services and additional
compensation related to increased staffing and related benefits.
OPERATING INCOME. Operating income increased by 215.8% to $6.0 million in the
first six months of 1998 compared to $1.9 million in the first six months of
1997. The increase was primarily due to higher unit sales volume and improved
gross profit percentages.
INTEREST. The Company recorded interest income of $231,000 in the first six
months of 1998 compared to interest expense of $123,000 in the first six months
of 1997. The changes were primarily due to investment income from the net
proceeds of the Initial Public Offering versus interest expenses on outstanding
borrowings in 1997.
INCOME TAX RATE. The Company's effective federal and state income tax rate was
38.3% in the first six months ended June 30, 1998 and 1997.

BRASS EAGLE INC.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
Net cash provided by operating activities for the six months ended June 30,
1998 was $577,000, which consisted primarily of net income of $3.8 million,
depreciation and amortization expense of $705,000, less increases in accounts
receivable of $6.4 million, an increase in accounts payable and accrued
expenses and prepaid expenses of $4.4 million, an increase in inventory of $4.2
million and a decrease in 'Due from Affiliate' of $2.2 million.
Net cash provided by investing activities was $3.2 million for the six months
ended June 30, 1998. This resulted from net proceeds on sales of securities
available-for-sale of $9.6 million, reduced by a distribution of $2.7 million
to Daisy and the purchase of property and equipment of $3.7 million.
The Company is aware of the year 2000 issue and has recognized the need to
ensure that its computer operations and operating systems will not be adversely
affected prior to processing information which will include dates in the year
2000. During 1997, the Company upgraded its primary business enterprise system
to a version which is year 2000 compliant and does not anticipate any
significant cost to be incurred related to the compliance issues. However,
there can be no assurance that the systems of other companies, including
customers and suppliers on which the Company's systems interact and transmit
data, will be timely converted or that any such failure to convert by another
company would not have an adverse affect on the Company's systems.
The Company has committed to the lease of a 24,564 square foot manufacturing
facility. The facility will house the company's paintball production
operations and is expected to begin operating during the third quarter of 1998.
Equipment and leasehold improvements including installation of equipment is
estimated to cost $4.4 million. The Company has expended $3.3 million for the
new facility through June 30, 1998. During the second quarter of 1998 start-up
charges of $212,000 related to the new paintball facility were included in
cost-of-sales.
Net cash used in financing activities was $407,000 in the six months ended June
30, 1998 which consisted of a $304,000 reduction of long-term debt and the
proceeds from the issuance of shares upon exercise of stock options less shares
forfeited for taxes of $103,000.
As of June 30, 1998 the Company had a non-interest bearing term debt with a
remaining face value of $390,000 payable to the prior owners of BEI, secured by
specific equipment. The note has an imputed interest rate of 8.4% and is due
on October 3, 1998.
At June 30, 1998 the Company had working capital of $23.2 million. The Company
has established a new $10 million credit facility. The Company has paid the
intercompany borrowings from Daisy with the proceeds from the Initial Public
Offering.

<PAGE>
BRASS EAGLE INC.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES (Continued)
The Company believes that funds generated from operations, together with
borrowings under the credit facility, will be adequate to meet its anticipated
cash requirements for at least the next 18 months. The Company may, when and
if the opportunity arises, acquire other businesses involved in activities or
having product lines that are compatible with those of the Company or pursue
the vertical integration of production capabilities for one or more of the
Company's products which are currently purchased from third parties. The
capital expenditures that would be associated with any such activities that may
occur in the future would be funded with available proceeds from the Initial
Public Offering, borrowings from the credit facility, working capital or a
combination of such sources.
