NET SALES AND COST OF GOODS SOLD
Net sales increased 9.3% to $11,239,712 for the second quarter of fiscal
1996 as compared to the second quarter of fiscal 1995, and increased 23.6% to
$20,982,033 for the first six months of fiscal 1996 as compared to the first
six months of fiscal 1995. The increase in net sales resulted from higher
demand experienced primarily in the domestic markets with contributing
increased demand in the export markets. This increased demand is related to
several new product introductions throughout fiscal 1996 coupled with increased
distribution. Although net sales increased as compared to the prior year, net
sales fell short of budgeted sales as a result of late introductions of new
products.
page 6
<PAGE> 7
MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF
OPERATIONS, CONTINUED
Cost of goods sold, as a percentage of net sales, increased to 57.2% for the
second quarter of fiscal 1996 from 55.0% for the second quarter of fiscal 1995,
and increased to 57.2% for the first six months of fiscal 1996 from 56.9% for
the first six months of fiscal 1995. The increase in cost of goods sold, as a
percentage of net sales, primarily resulted from increases in direct material
costs partially offset by decreases in direct labor costs.
SELLING, RESEARCH, GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSES
Selling, research, general and administrative (SRG&A) expenses increased
18.3% to $4,567,216 for the second quarter of fiscal 1996 as compared to the
second quarter of fiscal 1995, and increased 25.0% to $8,880,560 for the first
six months of fiscal 1996 as compared to the first six months of fiscal 1995.
As a percentage of net sales, SRG&A expenses increased to 40.6% for the second
quarter of fiscal 1996 from 37.6% for the second quarter of fiscal 1995, and
increased to 42.3% for the first six months of fiscal 1996 from 41.8% for the
same period of fiscal 1995. The increase in SRG&A expenses resulted primarily
from higher variable selling and shipping costs, higher marketing and
promotion costs, as well as higher research and development costs.
OTHER INCOME AND EXPENSE AND INCOME TAXES
Other income (expense) was $(47,093) for the second quarter of fiscal 1996
as compared to $22,106 for the second quarter of fiscal 1995. Other income
(expense) was $(82,986) for the first six months of fiscal 1996 as compared to
$33,456 for the first six months of fiscal 1995. The change in other income
(expense) was mainly a result of interest costs incurred on higher bank loan
borrowings during the quarter when compared to the prior year. Income taxes,
as a percentage of earnings before income taxes, were 40.9% for the second
quarter of fiscal 1996 and 42.0% for the first six months of fiscal 1996
compared to 36.4% for the second quarter of fiscal 1995 and 35.6% for the first
six months of fiscal 1995. The increase in income taxes, as a percentage of
earnings before income taxes, is primarily a result of higher state income
taxes coupled with an increase in the federal tax rate.
SEASONALITY
The home audio market is somewhat seasonal, with the majority of the
Company's sales and earnings occurring historically in the quarters ending
December and March.

<PAGE> 8
MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF
OPERATIONS, CONTINUED
Liquidity and Capital Resources
The Company has historically financed its operations through cash generated
by operations, term loan borrowings, revolving credit line borrowings and
normal trade credit extended by its suppliers.
Net cash provided by operating activities during the first six months of
fiscal 1996 was $214,895. As of October 1, 1995, the Company's working capital
was $12,952,182 and its current ratio was 3.0 to 1. In addition, the Company
presently has an unsecured revolving credit agreement with a commercial bank
providing for maximum borrowings of $6,500,000, of which $4,300,000 was
available at October 1, 1995. The Company also has an unsecured five-year term
loan agreement with the same bank for $2,000,000, $1,700,000 was outstanding at
October 1, 1995. The Company believes working capital and temporary borrowings
from its credit agreement will be sufficient to meet its current operating
needs and anticipated capital expenditures for the remainder of fiscal 1996.
