NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)
NOTE 1 MANAGEMENT'S REPRESENTATION
In the opinion of Management, the unaudited financial statements contain all
adjustments necessary to present fairly the financial position as of June 30,
1995 and the results of operations and cash flows for the period then ended.
NOTE 2 SHORT-TERM BANK BORROWINGS
On November 18, 1994 the Company entered into an amended revolving line of
credit agreement for $2,200,000 collateralized by the sum of 80% of qualifying
accounts receivable plus 45% of inventories. Borrowings based on eligible
inventories have a fluctuating maximum allowable balance up to $800,000.
Qualifying accounts receivable and inventory used as a basis for the June 30,
1995 borrowing totaled $1,850,000. Unused available credit at June 30, 1995 was
$355,000. The amount of available credit line is dependent upon the balance of
qualifying accounts receivable and inventory and is therefore subject to change.
Borrowings from this line bear interest at the Bank's National Commercial Rate
(BNCR) plus 2.25% (two and one-quarter percent). At June 30, 1995 the BNCR was
9.0%. The interest expense on short-term bank borrowings for 1995 and 1994
amounted to $41,890 and $36,726, respectively.
The terms of the borrowing agreement state that the Company may not, without
prior consent of the lender, declare or pay any dividends or incur additional
debt or obligations. The Company's President, Mr. Don Taylor, personally
guaranteed all obligations under this agreement secured by a lien on his
personal assets.
On May 20, 1994 the Company entered into agreements with Meridian Bank to
restructure then existing financing agreements. That amended line of credit had
a maximum principal amount of $1,600,000, replacing the former $2,000,000. The
rate of interest on this line was calculated at the BNCR plus 2.5%.
Simultaneously, the Company negotiated a three year term loan of $400,000 at the
same interest rate, of which principal of $11,111 and accrued interest will be
paid in 36 monthly installments commencing June 1, 1994 and due in full May 1,
1997.
NOTE 3 LONG-TERM DEBT
On November 18, 1994, coincident with the purchase of inventory from the Herwig
Division of the General Medical Corporation, the Company entered into an
additional short term borrowing agreement with Meridian Bank which, on December
28, 1994, was converted to a 60 month borrowing arrangement. The long-term
agreement with Meridian Bank, guaranteed by the United States Small Business
Administration (SBA), provided for the Company to borrow $700,000 with interest
at New York's Prime Rate plus 2.25% payable monthly. The principal is repayable
in monthly amounts beginning in March 1995. The first three monthly principal
payments were $50,000 and the remainder are $10,000 through December, 1999. This
loan is secured by the Herwig inventory and all of the Company's other tangible
and intangible assets.

SKLAR CORPORATION
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)
NOTE 3 LONG-TERM DEBT, (continued)
Additional monthly principal payments are required if the outstanding principal
on the loan exceeds 50% of the Herwig inventory value, including replacement
inventory purchased in the ordinary course of business. The prime rate was 9% at
June 30, 1995.
On May 20, 1994 the Company negotiated a three year term loan of $400,000 with
Meridian Bank as described in Note 2 above as part of a general restructuring of
existing financing agreements.
The contract under which Dental Corporation of America (DCA) was acquired was
renegotiated in April 1992. The renegotiated contract, among other things,
changed the payment terms from three fixed $100,000 annual payments plus
interest and royalties based upon future sales to a fixed monthly payment of
$12,000 for one year commencing April 1, 1992 followed by a monthly payment of
$5,000 for six years commencing April 1, 1993. The gross payments and associated
liability under the new agreement are substantially the same as to those which
were recorded, including interest, upon the acquisition of DCA. Accordingly,
there has been no change to the financial statements in connection with this
renegotiation. The new agreement did however change the aggregate prospective
maturities.
NOTE 4 BUSINESS OPERATIONS
The Company imports and distributes under the Sklar, Misdom-Frank and other
trademarks hand-held, non-electronic instruments for the surgical, dental and
veterinary fields.
On November 18, 1994 the Company purchased the inventory of the Herwig Division
of the General Medical Corporation (GMC) for $871,922. In addition, and as part
of the purchase agreement, the Company entered into a marketing agreement
whereby the Company committed to supplying GMC with its medical instrument needs
for its customers for a fifty month term. GMC is under no obligation to buy any
items from the Company during the term of the agreement, but if items are
purchased by GMC the Company is obligated to make certain marketing incentive
payments.
NOTE 5 INVENTORIES
Inventories are stated at the lower of cost (first-in, first-out method) or
market.
NOTE 6 EQUIPMENT AND IMPROVEMENTS
Equipment and improvements are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and
amortization. Depreciation and amortization are provided generally on the
straight-line method over the useful lives of the assets which are estimated to
be three to ten years for equipment and the shorter of the life of the lease or
the life of the asset for leasehold improvements.

NOTE 7 GOODWILL AND CATALOG DEVELOPMENT COSTS
Goodwill is amortized over twenty years, and catalog development costs are being
amortized over at various schedules ranging from 1 1/2 - 5 years for the three
month period ended June 30, 1995. For the three month period ended June 30, 1994
goodwill and catalog development costs were amortized over forty years and 1 1/2
- 7 years, respectively.
NOTE 8 INCOME TAXES
Income taxes represent the State tax due. Federal income taxes payable are
offset by net operating loss carryforwards and goodwill is reduced accordingly
to reflect the utilization of the loss carryforwards. No tax loss carryforwards
exist to offset state income tax payable.
As a result of the merger of Medco Jewelry Corporation and Misdom-Frank
Corporation, management believes there may be federal net operating loss
carry-forwards available to Medco Jewelry Corporation at the date of merger that
have transferred to Sklar Corporation. Such loss carry-forwards and additional
post-merger operating losses totaling approximately $3,850,000, which expire in
1995 ($1,596,000), 1997 ($244,000), 1998 ($974,000), 1999 ($50,000), 2000
($14,000), 2001 ($461,000), and 2002 ($511,000), are available as deductions
from federal taxable income of future years.
NOTE 9 STOCKHOLDERS' EQUITY
As of June 30, 1995, of the 1,500,000 shares of Common Stock authorized,
1,237,711 are outstanding. Of the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock, 24,825
shares are authorized and outstanding.
The Series A Convertible Preferred Stock may be redeemed by the Company after
March 1, 1986 at a price of $100 per share and is entitled to a liquidation
preference of $100 per share plus cumulative dividends. Annual dividends of
$12.50 per share accrue cumulatively on the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock
commencing on July 1, 1984, payable on June 30 of each year commencing June 30,
1985. No dividends have been declared in the years 1988 through 1995.
NOTE 10 SALES
A sale is recorded when title to the product passes to the customer.
NOTE 11 NET LOSS PER SHARE
Net loss per share is computed by dividing the net loss applicable to common
shares by the weighted average number of shares of Common Stock outstanding
after giving effect to the ratably accrued preferred dividend. No effect has
been given to Common Stock equivalent shares as such would be anti-dilutive.

MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
The following discussion and analysis provides information which management
believes is relevant to an assessment and understanding of the Company's results
of operations and financial condition. The discussion should be read in
conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto appearing elsewhere
herein.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
The following table sets forth, for the periods indicated, the percentage of net
sales for certain items in the Company's Statements of Income for each period:
Income and Expense Items as Percentage of
Net Sales for the Quarter ended June 30
1995 1994
---- ----
Net Sales 100.0% 100.0%
Cost of Sales 54.4 45.7
Gross Profit 45.6 54.3
Selling, General and
Admin. Expenses 41.2 49.9
Income (Loss) Before
Interest & Taxes 4.4 4.4
Interest Expense 4.0 3.9
Income Before
Income Taxes 0.4 0.5
Net Income 0.2 0.4
SALES
For the three month period ended June 30, 1995 compared to the three month
period ended June 30, 1994, sales were up $804,824 or 60.4%. This increase
reflects the impact of the marketing agreement entered into with the Company's
major customer and the success of the Company's approach to build sales through
an emphasis on marketing and advertising.
COST OF SALES
Cost of sales as a percentage of sales increased 8.7% for the three month period
June 30, 1995 compared to the three month period ended June 30, 1994. This
increase reflects the higher cost of products as a result of a weakened US
dollar on foreign exchange rates and a diminishing profit margin as a percent of
sales due to increasing competitiveness in the health care industry. Management
expects the business to continue to show a lower profit margin as a percent of
sales in future periods.
<PAGE>11
SKLAR CORPORATION
MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
SELLING, GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSES
Selling, General and Administrative expenses for the three month period ended
June 30, 1995 have increased $271,280 or 40.9% from the three month period ended
June 30, 1994. The increase in these expenditures is a result of the Company's
commitment to an increased marketing and advertising effort and the resulting
increased personnel and advertising costs. The increased sales volume has also
required certain of these increases. Management expects to continue this level
of expenditure in future periods.
INTEREST
Interest costs increased $ 32,606 or 63.0% for the three month period ended June
30, 1995 compared to the three month period ended June 30, 1994 due to increased
borrowing levels. Borrowing increased primarily as a result of the financing
necessary to purchase the inventory of the Herwig Division of General Medical
Corporation and finance the resulting increased sales volume.
INCOME TAXES
Federal income tax expense is reduced in both periods by the available net
operating loss carryforwards. Income tax expense represents the state income tax
payable.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
The Company's $2,200,000 revolving line of credit with Meridian Bank is
considered adequate to meet the financing requirements of the Company in the
foreseeable future.
PART II - OTHER INFORMATION
ITEM 1 LEGAL MATTERS
(A) The Company has filed suit against the former principal of DCA for
violating terms of a non-compete agreement signed as part of a re-negotiated
settlement for the purchase of DCA. This suit will seek the return of all monies
paid to the former principal to date. This case is currently in the pleading and
discovery stage, therefore, no assessment of the outcome of the case has been
made by legal counsel.
ITEM 3 DEFAULTS UPON SENIOR SECURITIES
As reported in registrant's form 10-Q for the quarter ended December 31, 1985
and as further discussed in Note 9 to the financial statements, the registrant
did not declare a dividend on its cumulative Series A Convertible Preferred
Stock on June 30, 1988 through 1995.
