PART I
ITEM 1. DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS
-----------------------
(a) General:
Laser Master Int'l Inc. was founded in 1981 and prints for the textile industry
and the gift wrap paper industry. Laser Master sells its products and services
nationwide thru its direct sales force and resellers. In addition Laser Master
has a real estate subsidiary Harrison First Realty Corp. which owns a factory
building in Harrison, New Jersey. The building is 240,000 square feet of which
49% is rented to two unaffiliated tenants and 51% is rented to Flexo-Craft
Prints Inc. Flexo-Craft Prints Inc. is the printing subsidiary and is engaged in
the use of a computerized laser system to accomplish Flexographic printing for
industrial and commercial printing and engraving, and counts among its customers
large corporations, some of which are listed on the NY Stock Exchange.
THE FLEXO-CRAFT PROCESS
The principal operation of Flexo-Craft is to utilize a ZED laser in its process.
A laser is a device which emits a coherent wavelength (color). A large degree of
control is afforded, and as a consequence, an exceptionally high density of
power can be delivered to a well-defined area by focusing the light energy.
Using a computer driven system the laser beam makes grooves in the form of
designs and patterns onto a rubber material. The rubber material is then sealed
on a steel or aluminum cylinder which is then placed on a printing press. In the
heat transfer printing process the ink is injected into the grooves using a
computer driven process and then the rubber coated cylinder prints on heat
transfer paper. The heat transfer paper is sold to manufacturers who then seal
it onto textile materials. The same process is used for gift wrap paper except
that the paper itself is the final product. One of our six color presses prints
heat transfer paper and the other six color press prints gift wrap paper. Our
eight color press can print either paper and in addition can print for the
wallpaper, home furnishings, carpet and other industries. The 8 color press also
is two times faster than the newest six color press.
We accept patterns from the customer or can design its own patterns using a
computerized color separating system. In addition we have an extensive supply of
rubber coated cylinders with designs already engraved which can be reused
numerous times.
INDUSTRY SEGMENT INFORMATION
During the last two fiscal years ending November 30, 1999 and 1998, the
following is a listing of the percentage of revenue which contributed toward our
total revenue.
1999 l998
---- ----
Heat Transfer 42% 45%
Gift Wrap 56% 52%
Roll Covering 2% 3%
---- ----
Total % 100% 100%
We do not consider our business to be a seasonal business. However prior to the
Christmas Season the Christmas gift wrap business tends to increase.
Historically sales are greater in the second half of the year as customers need
more gift wrap paper as the Christmas holiday season approaches.
-2-
COMPETITION
Flexo-Craft is subject to competition in both laser and commercial printing
engraving. There is no assurance that other companies with greater resources
will not engage in the same business as Flexo Craft. Flexo Craft competes with a
major competitor in the use of the laser in its business. There are three
companies currently engaged in a business similar to that of Flexo-Craft. In
addition, Flexo Craft competes with many other companies who use conventional
methods of processing, which do not include the use of the laser.
Flexo-Craft presently sells to approximately 150 customers. Flexo-Craft does not
depend upon one customer or a few that would materially affect our sales,
however, the loss of a certain number of its customers would have a material
effect upon our business.
We have approximately three to four competitors in the Heat Transfer Business;
approximately twelve in its Gift Wrap Business; and two to three in its Roll
Covering Business.
We compete with our competitors principally with respect to the quality of our
product and our ability to deliver its product on a timely basis to our
customers. Generally, price is not the most significant factor with respect to a
customer, as the customer is most interested in the quality of the product
delivered to it.
We do not have sales representatives and maintain a sales staff of six
individuals who visit our customers of the Company on a national basis.
EMPLOYEES
We currently employ 85 employees, of which eight are in Management and 77 are
Members of Local 1718 of the United Production Workers. We generally enjoy
favorable relations with its union employees, and have not in our history had
any strike or any work stoppage.
OTHER INFORMATION
We are not dependent on a single customer or a limited number of customers. No
material portion of our business is subject to government contracts. Compliance
with federal, state or local environmental protection laws have no material
affect on our capital expenditures, earnings or competitive position.
Backlog of orders:
Dollar amount of backlog and percentage
expected to be filled during the fiscal year.
As of:
November 30, 1999 $4,500,000 100%
November 30, 1998 $4,000,000 100%
-3-
<PAGE>
The backlog of orders, is not affected by the seasonal cycle of the industry
throughout the year. We filled all of our backlog orders during our last fiscal
year ended November 30, 1999 and anticipated being able to fill all of our
current backlog orders during our fiscal year ending November 30, 2000.
Flexo-Craft orders are generally subject to cancelable purchase orders or
contracts. The rate of cancellation of orders has been insignificant. Although
the stated backlog may be used as a guideline in determining the orders which
may be delivered, the backlog is subject to change by reason of several factors,
including possible cancellation, and should not be relied upon as being
necessarily indicative of our revenues or profits within the indicated period,
or otherwise.
ITEM 2. DESCRIPTION OF PROPERTIES
-------------------------

The building was refurbished in 1994 and is fully detached and contains a
sprinkler system and heavy duty electrical wires, required by the Company's
Flexo- Craft facilities for use in its printing process. The building area is
approximately 240,000 square feet, which is 51% utilized by the Company. The
building has an existing mortgage in the sum of $1,670,000 as well as a second

ITEM 7. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OR PLAN OF OPERATION
---------------------------------------------------------
PRINTING SEGMENT
Net sales for the year ended November 30, 1999 totaled $15,575,349 as compared
to $13,670,258 for the year ended November 30, 1998, for an increase of 14%.
Management attributes the increase in sales to the fact that the company entered
new markets for its printed paper products such as packaging. As the 8 color
press continues to operate properly management is expecting to be able to enter
additional markets. The 8 color press was successfully upgraded and repaired by
the manufacturer in January 98. The 8 color press which was delivered and
assembled in 1995 finally impacted sales this year and is anticipated to make an
impact in 2000 which should increase sales in the future. Through research and
development management has developed innovative packaging products which began
to be sold in the 4th quarter of 1999. Customer feedback has been favorable and
the company has acquired several national customers for these packaging products
for the current year.
-5-
<PAGE>
Gross profit percentage for 1999 was 29% compared to 29% for the year before.
This was a result of significant improvements in production efficiencies because
of contributions from the multipurpose 8 color press. This press is at least
twice as fast as the other presses and needs less manpower and less time to
complete orders. In addition it enables the company to print on a variety of
different papers that were not possible in previous years. As an offset to
improved efficiencies raw material prices increased which put pressure on
margins.
REAL ESTATE SEGMENT
Rental income for the years 1999 compared to 1998 decreased 2%. During 1999 the
operating profit from the real estate division was $ 58,583 compared to $ 84,037
in 1998. The Company has two unaffiliated tenants with monthly rental income of
$31,013. This segment expects to be profitable in the future now that the start
up expenses and renovation period is over.
CORPORATE EXPENSES
General and administrative expenses for fiscal 1999 were 17% of sales as
compared to 16% of sales for the preceding year. The increase was due to the
fact the Company had a substantial bad debt expense which management does not
expect to repeat
Interest and finance charges paid by the Company during fiscal 1999 increased
slightly from the previous year due to the fact that the company's average debt
level increased from the previous year.
The Company does not expect any significant additional borrowings for the
upcoming year.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES:
The Company finished its 1999 fiscal year with a current ration of 1.59 compared
to 1.57 in the fiscal year 1998. Working capital and cash aggregated
approximately $2,307,912 and $618,477 respectively at November 30, 1999 as
compared to $2,421,324 and $239,216 respectively at November 30, 1998. The
Company believes its financial position at November 30, 1999 will enable it to
take advantage of any new opportunities that may arise.
In fiscal 1999 cash flow provided from operations was $2,093,058 compared to
$20,772 in 1998. The increase in net profit plus the reduction of inventory in
the amount of $537,284 was the main reason for the increase in cash from
operations. In addition significant improvements in collections in the second
half of the year resulted in lower accounts receivable at year end. Inventory
decreased because of improved inventory controls. Accounts payable decrease of
$99,990 was because of the company's ability to obtain discounts because of
faster payments. Net cash used by investing activities during 1999 was
$1,146,879 which was primarily because of fixed assets acquisitions. Management
does not anticipate any significant capital expenditures in 2000. Net cash used
by financing activities during 1999 was $566,888. This was primarily because the
company's repayment of debt.
The Company anticipates that its capital resources provided from its cash flow
from operations and anticipated financing will be sufficient to meet its
financing requirements for at least the next 12 month period.

<PAGE>
INFLATIONARY IMPACT:
Since the inception of operation, inflation has not significantly affected the
operating results of the company. However, inflation and changing interest rates
have had a significant effect on the economy in general and therefore could
affect the operating results of the company in the future.
YEAR 2000
Laser Master recognized the potential business impact relating to the Year 2000
computer system issue and had implemented a plan to assess and improve the
Company's state of readiness with respect to such issue. The Year 2000 issue is
one where computer systems may recognize the designation "00" as 1900 when it
means 2000, resulting in system failure or miscalculations.
In recognition of the Year 2000 issue, commencing in 1997 the company
initiated a comprehensive review of its information technology systems, which
the Company is dependent upon for the conduct of its business operations, as
well as the computer hardware and software products, components and other
equipment supplied to the Company by third parties in order to determine the
adequacy of those systems in light of the Company's future business
requirements. Year 2000 readiness was one of the factors considered in the
review of the Company's systems. Such review included testing and analysis of
the Company's systems and inquiries of third parties supplying information
technology systems, computer hardware and software products and components, and
other equipment to the Company in order to receive assurances from such third
parties that these systems, products and components are Year 2000 compliant.
Laser Master completed its review in November 1998.
As a result of its review, Laser Master had determined that its internal
financial software systems are adequate for the company's future business needs,
including Year 2000 compliance.
Laser Master did not develop a "worst case" scenario with respect to Year 2000
issues, but instead has focused its resources on identifying any material,
remediable problems and reducing uncertainties generally, through the review
procedures described above.
Laser Master had not developed Year 2000 contingency plans, other than the
review described above, and did not believe such plans are merited by the
results of its Year 2000 review. The Company maintains and deploys contingency
plans designed to address various other potential business interruptions. These
plans may be applicable to address the possible interruption of support provided
by third parties resulting from their failure to be Year 2000 compliant.
<PAGE>
If Laser Master or the third parties with which it has relationships were to not
successfully meet its or their Year 2000 compliance requirements, the Company
would likely encounter disruptions to its business that could have a material
adverse effect on its business, financial position and results of operations.
Laser Master could be materially and adversely impacted by widespread economic
or financial market disruption or by Year 2000 computer system failures of third
parties with which it has relationships. Laser Master has not experienced any
Y-2K disruptions and does not anticipate any going forward.

NOTE 2 - SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
- ----------------------------------------
BASIS OF CONSOLIDATION
----------------------
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Laser
Master International Inc. and its wholly owned subsidiaries. All
significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated.
INVENTORIES
-----------
Inventories are stated at the lower of cost (first-in, first-out) or
market.
DEPRECIATION
------------
Depreciation of property plant and equipment is calculated on the
straight line method based on estimated useful lives of 31-1/2 years for
buildings and improvements and 10 to 40 years for machinery, equipment
and furniture. Maintenance and repairs are charged to operations as
incurred. Significant renewals and betterments are capitalized.
INCOME TAXES
------------
Income taxes are computed in accordance with the provisions of Financial
Accounting Standards Board Statement No. 109, "Accounting for Income
Taxes" ("SFAS 109"), which requires, among other things, a liability
approach to calculating deferred income taxes. SFAS 109 requires a
company to recognize deferred tax liabilities and assets for the
expected future taxconsequences of events that have been recognized in a
company's financial statements or tax returns. Under this method,
deferred tax liabilities and assets are determined based on the
difference between the financial statement carrying amounts and tax
basis of assets and liabilities using enacted tax rates in effect in the
years in which the differences are expected to reverse.
USE OF ESTIMATES
----------------
Management uses estimates and assumptions in preparing financial
statements. Those estimates and assumptions affect the reported amounts
of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and
liabilities, and the reported revenues and expenses. Actual results
could differ from these estimates.
CONCENTRATIONS OF CREDIT RISK
-----------------------------
The Company's cash balances, including restricted cash, which are
maintained in various banks are insured up to $100,000 for each bank by
the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation. The balances at times, may
exceed these limits.
FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
-----------------------------------
The carrying value amounts of cash, prepaid expenses, accrued expenses
and loans payable approximate fair value because of the short maturity
of these items. It is not practical to estimate the fair value of long
term debt because quoted market prices do not exist and estimates could
not be made through other means.

- ----------------------------------------------------
DEFERRED CHARGES
----------------
Deferred charges consists principally of costs that were incurred upon
the financing of the Company's factory building in Harrison, New Jersey
and the eight color printing press. The financing was done through a tax
exempt bond issue through the New Jersey Economic Development Authority.
These costs include EDA fees, legal fees, other professional fees and
other closing costs. The costs are being amortized over the length of
the loans using the straight line method.
EARNINGS PER COMMON SHARE
-------------------------
The consolidated financial statements are presented in accordance with
SFAS No. 128, "Earnings Per share." Basic earnings per common share are
computed using the weighted average number of common shares outstanding
during the period. Diluted earnings per common share incorporate the
incremental shares issuable upon the assumed exercise of stock options
and warrants.
