NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Note A - Basis of Presentation
The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements
reflect all adjustments (which are of a normal recurring nature)
that are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair
statement of the results for the interim periods presented.
Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in
financial statements prepared in accordance with generally
accepted accounting principles have been omitted pursuant to SEC
rules and regulations. The statements should be read in
conjunction with the Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
and notes to the consolidated financial statements included in
the Company's annual report for the year ended March 31, 1997.
The balance sheet and related information in these notes as
of March 31, 1997, have been taken from the audited consolidated
financial statements as of that date. Certain reclassifications
have been made to conform presentation of the fiscal 1997
Financial Statements with fiscal 1998 presentation.
Note B - New Pronouncements
Computation of Net Income Per Share: Statement of Financial
Accounting Standards No. 128, "Earnings per Share" ("SFAS 128")
has been issued effective for interim and annual fiscal periods
ending after December 15, 1997. SFAS 128 establishes standards
for computing and presenting earnings per share. The Company
adopted the provisions of SFAS 128 in the third quarter of fiscal
1998 and restated earnings per share for all periods presented.
Such adoption did not have a material effect on the Company's
results of operations or financial position. Basic net income
per share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted
average number of common and Class B common shares outstanding
during the year. Diluted earnings per share reflects the
dilutive effect of stock options outstanding during the period
and common shares contingently issuable upon conversion of
convertible debt securities in periods in which such exercise
would cause dilution and the effect on net income of converting
the debt securities.
Disclosure of Information about Capital Structure: In
February 1997, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting
Standards No. 129, "Disclosure of Information about Capital
Structure" ("SFAS 129"). SFAS 129 establishes standards for
disclosing information about an entity's capital structure. The
Company adopted SFAS 129 in the third quarter of fiscal 1998.

Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial
Condition and Results of Operations
OVERVIEW
On January 6, 1997, the Company sold the assets, subject to
certain liabilities, of the music division ("Music Business").
The operating results of the Music Business for the three and
nine month periods ended December 31, 1996, are reported as
income from discontinued operations.
The following table sets forth for the periods indicated
certain selected statements of operations data of the Company
expressed as a percentage of net revenues and the percentage
change in dollars in such data from the prior fiscal year.

</TABLE>
The Company's net revenues fluctuate seasonally, with net
revenues in the first fiscal quarter historically being lower
than those for the remainder of the year. This seasonality is
the result of increased consumer purchases of the Company's
products during the traditional holiday periods. In addition,
the Company's quarterly operating results may fluctuate
significantly due to the seasonality of new product
introductions, the timing of selling and marketing expenses and
changes in sales and product mixes.
The following discussion includes certain forward-looking
statements. Actual results could differ materially from those
reflected by the forward-looking statements and a number of
factors may affect future results, liquidity and capital
resources. These factors include softness in the general retail
environment, the timing of products being introduced to the
market, the level of returns experienced by operating divisions,
the level of margins achievable in the marketplace and the
ability to minimize operating expenses. Although the Company
believes it has the business strategy and resources needed for
improved operations, future revenue and margin trends cannot be
reliably predicted and may cause the Company to adjust its
business strategy during the remainder of fiscal 1998.
Results of Operations
Net revenues for the first nine months of fiscal 1998
increased by $3.8 million, or 2.1%, over the same period in
fiscal 1997. The publishing product net revenues increased $6.6
million, or 5.7%, primarily due to favorable acceptance of new
product offerings and reductions in product returns. Net
revenues from gift products decreased $2.8 million, or 4.2%,
compared to the prior year primarily due to reduced sales of the
stationery category to mass merchandisers. Net revenues for the
third quarter of fiscal 1998 increased $1.1 million, or 1.7%,
over the same period in fiscal 1997. The publishing product net
revenues increased $3.7 million, or 8.3%, for the third quarter
compared to the prior year quarter, primarily due to new product
introductions. Net revenues from gift products decreased $2.6
million, or 13.5%, primarily due to the above mentioned reduction
in sales to mass merchandisers. Price increases did not have a
material effect on net revenues.
The Company's cost of goods sold for the first nine months
of fiscal 1998 increased by $3.7 million, or 3.6%, over the same
period in fiscal 1997 and, as a percentage of net revenues,
increased to 54.6% from 53.8% in the comparable period of fiscal
1997. Cost of goods sold for the third quarter of fiscal 1998
decreased by $0.4 million, or (1.2)%, over the same period in
fiscal 1997 and, as a percentage of net revenues, decreased to
54.4% from 56.0% in the comparable period in fiscal 1997. The
increase in cost of goods sold, as a percentage of net revenues,
for the first nine months resulted primarily from the impact of
the prior year's licensing revenue. In the first nine months of
fiscal 1997 the Company had higher licensing revenues which have
minimal associated cost of goods sold. The Company periodically
receives licensing revenues from companies that request
permission to reprint the Company's publishing products and
market them through a channel that might not currently be served.
The decrease in cost of goods sold, as a percentage of net
revenues, for the third quarter of fiscal 1997 was primarily due
to a change in product mix. Within the publishing products
division, for the third quarter of fiscal 1998, the Company
experienced a lesser percentage of revenues from Bible products,
which have higher costs of goods sold than other publishing
products.
Selling, general and administrative expenses for the first
nine months of fiscal 1998 decreased by $1.1 million, or 1.5%,
and for the third quarter decreased by $1.2 million, or 5.8%,
from the same periods in fiscal 1997. These expenses, expressed
as a percentage of net revenues, decreased to 34.2% for the first
nine months of fiscal 1998 from 35.4% in the same period in
fiscal 1997 due to reductions in general expenditures. For the
quarter, these expenses, expressed as a percentage of net
revenues, increased to 32.1% from 30.9% in the same period of
fiscal 1997 primarily due to increases in freight costs from new
programs introduced this year and timing of certain marketing
expenditures.
Interest expense for the first nine months of fiscal 1998
decreased by $2.4 million, or 34.9%, and decreased for the third
quarter by $0.9 million, or 38.0%, over the same period in fiscal
1997 due to decreased borrowings as a result of the use of a
portion of the proceeds from the sale of the Music Business to
repay indebtedness and decreased working capital assets.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
At December 31, 1997, the Company had $41.0 million in cash
and cash equivalents. The primary sources of liquidity to meet
the Company's future obligations and working capital needs are
cash generated from operations and borrowings available under
bank credit facilities. At December 31, 1997, the Company had
working capital of $138.8 million.
Net cash provided by operating activities was $6.8 million
and $20.2 million for the first nine months of fiscal 1998 and
1997, respectively. Cash provided by operations during the first
nine months of fiscal 1998 was principally attributable to income
from continuing operations and decreases in accounts receivable
and inventories. Cash provided by operations during the first
nine months of fiscal 1997 was principally attributable to income
from continuing operations and a decrease in inventories.
During the first nine months of fiscal 1998, capital
expenditures totaled approximately $2.9 million, which was used
primarily to purchase computer, warehousing and manufacturing
equipment. During the remainder of fiscal 1998, the Company
anticipates capital expenditures of approximately $1.0 million
primarily consisting of additional computer, warehousing and
manufacturing equipment.
The Company's bank credit facilities are unsecured and
consist of a $75 million credit facility and a $10 million credit
facility (collectively, the "Credit Agreements"). The $75
million credit facility bears interest at either the prime rate
or, at the Company's option, LIBOR plus a percentage, subject to
adjustment based on certain financial ratios, and matures on
December 13, 2002. The $10 million credit facility bears
interest at the prime rate and matures on July 31, 1999. At
December 31, 1997, the Company had no borrowings outstanding
under the Credit Agreements, and $85 million available for
borrowing. Due to the seasonality of the Company's business,
borrowings under the Credit Agreements typically peak during the
third quarter of the fiscal year.
At December 31, 1997, the Company had outstanding $24
million of unsecured senior notes ("Senior Notes"). The Senior
Notes bear interest at rates from 6.68% to 9.50% due through
fiscal 2008.
Under the terms of the Credit Agreements and the Senior
Notes, the Company has agreed to limit the payment of dividends
and to maintain certain interest coverage and debt-to-total-
capital ratios which are similarly calculated for each debt
agreement. At December 31, 1997, the Company was in compliance
with all covenants of these debt agreements, as amended.
The Company also has outstanding $55 million of 5.75%
convertible subordinated notes ("Convertible Subordinated Notes")
due November 30, 1999. The Convertible Subordinated Notes
presently are convertible into common stock at $17.00 per share
and are redeemable at the Company's option after November 30,
1995, at 103.29% of the principal amount, declining annually
thereafter to 100% on November 30, 1999.
Management believes cash generated by operations and
borrowings available under the Credit Agreements will be
sufficient to fund anticipated working capital requirements for
existing operations through the remainder of fiscal 1998.
Year 2000 Conversion
The Company has established a task force to coordinate the
identification, evaluation, and implementation of changes to
computer systems and applications necessary to achieve a year
2000 date conversion with no effect on customers or disruption to
business operations. These actions are necessary to ensure that
the systems and applications will recognize and process the year
2000 and beyond. The Company is also evaluating non-system
issues relative to the year 2000. Major areas of potential
business impact have been identified and are being evaluated, and
initial conversion efforts are underway. The Company also is
communicating with suppliers, customers, financial institutions
and others with which it does business to coordinate year 2000
conversion. The total cost of compliance and its effect on the
Company's future results of operations is being determined as
part of the detailed conversion planning.
