THE COMPANY
Grand Toys International, Inc. (the "Company"), through its Canadian
operating subsidiary, Grand Toys Ltd. ("Grand Canada"), has been engaged in the
toy business in Canada for over 35 years and currently distributes a wide
variety of toys throughout Canada. Grand Canada's toy business consists of two
areas of operation: (i) the importation and distribution throughout Canada, on
an exclusive basis, of a wide variety of well-known toy products designed and
manufactured throughout the world; and (ii) the sale of toy products featuring
popular characters licensed to the Company. Through a United States subsidiary,
Grand Group Inc. ("Grand US"), the Company had commenced sales of a proprietary
line of toy products in the United States and abroad in the first quarter of
1994. Due to continued operating losses and a lack of sufficient capital, Grand
US ceased operations in September 1995. On January 4, 1996 an order for relief
under Chapter 7 of the United States Bankruptcy Code was entered against Grand
US. A trustee was appointed at that time to supervise the liquidation of Grand
US's remaining assets.
On October 24, 1996, the Company announced that it had entered into a
distribution agreement with Pyramid Handbags Inc. ("Pyramid"). Under the terms
of the agreement, Grand Canada will distribute Pyramid's product line, which
includes backpacks, handbags, duffels, belt bags, small leather goods, umbrellas
and rainwear throughout Canada on an exclusive basis. The Company has
established a new subsidiary, Grand Concepts, Inc. ("Grand Concepts"), to market
this new product line, and similar products. Grand Concepts also secured the
rights to use the Star Wars(R) license on the new product line.
Grand Canada is the wholly-owned subsidiary of Grand Toys (U.S.) Ltd.,
which itself is a subsidiary of the Company. Grand Canada imports for
distribution in Canada select toys from toy manufacturers who design, develop
and manufacture such toys. These toys are generally the same products that such
manufacturers market and sell in other countries. In determining which toys to
import, Grand Canada examines such factors as consumer acceptance of the
particular toys in other countries, Canadian consumer tastes based on similar
toys distributed previously in Canada and the potential demand for such toys by
Grand Canada's customers, which is partly determined in advance by exhibiting
products to its customers prior to ordering the product from the toy
manufacturer.
Grand Canada's product line includes products featuring well-known
character properties created by others. In order to obtain the right to
manufacture and sell toy products featuring such character properties, Grand
Canada enters into license agreements with the owners of such properties. Under
the terms of the character property license agreements, Grand Canada pays
royalties to licensers that generally range from 5% to 12% of sales of the toys
utilizing such character properties. Generally, Grand Canada's character
property license agreements provide it with the exclusive right to sell only
specific products featuring the particular character property and limit the
territory in which such products may be sold in Canada. Typically, each such
license agreement extends for one to three years and may be renewed upon payment
of certain minimum guarantees or the attainment of specified sales levels during
the term of the license.
Grand Canada has written license and distribution arrangements with two
of the approximately fifteen toy manufacturers from whom it imports toys for
distribution in Canada. Grand Canada selects products from a master product list
provided to it by the manufacturer. The purchase price, depending on the
arrangement with the supplier, consists of a fixed payment for each toy, a
royalty fee based on gross sales of the products by Grand Canada in Canada or a
combination of the two. Pursuant to these agreements, Grand Canada obtains the
exclusive right to import and distribute throughout Canada the toy products
selected by it. Where agreements have been entered into, they generally extend
for one to five years and are generally exclusive for a specified product or
product line. Generally, under such agreements and arrangements, Grand Canada is
responsible for arranging and paying for shipping and other related costs and
expenses. Delivery of products generally takes approximately one to five weeks.

USE OF PROCEEDS
The Company will not receive any of the proceeds from the sale of the
shares of Common Stock offered hereby. All of the proceeds from the sale of the
shares of the Company's Common Stock offered hereby will be received by the
Selling Stockholders. The Company will pay all of the expenses of the offering.
RISK FACTORS
THE SECURITIES OFFERED HEREBY INVOLVE A HIGH DEGREE OF RISK.
PROSPECTIVE INVESTORS SHOULD CAREFULLY CONSIDER, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE
FOLLOWING FACTORS CONCERNING THE BUSINESS OF THE COMPANY AND THIS OFFERING.
In addition to reviewing the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-KSB for
the fiscal year ended December 31, 1995, the following factors should be
considered carefully in evaluating the Company and its business before
purchasing the Common Stock offered hereby.
History of Losses. Although for the nine months ended September 30,
1996, the Company had net income of $835,019, the Company incurred losses before
taxes and extraordinary items for the years ended December 31, 1995, 1994, 1993
and 1992 of $2,971,804, $4,395,927, $278,611 and $17,936, respectively. There
can be no assurance that the Company will be profitable in the future.
Possible Conflicts of Interest. Certain relationships among the
Company, its management and affiliates create various potential and actual
conflicts of interest. Although it is the Company's policy that all material
affiliated transactions and loans will be made or entered into on terms that are
no less favorable to the Company than those that can be obtained from
unaffiliated third parties and that such transactions must be approved by a
majority of the directors who do not have an interest in the transaction,
certain situations may arise in the future where such persons would be required
to determine whether actions that could benefit or negatively impact the
Company, could negatively impart or benefit the personal interests of that
person.
Dependence on Existing Management. The success of the Company is
dependent on the expertise, experience and continued services of Stephen Altro,
a director and the President of the Company, David Mars, a director and the Vice
Chairman of the Company and Ron Goldenberg, a director and the Executive Vice
President and Chief Financial Officer of the Company. Most decisions concerning
the conduct of the Company's business are made or significantly influenced by
such persons. The loss or interruption of the services of such persons could
have a material adverse effect on the Company. The Company does not maintain
"key man" insurance on the life of any such persons. The Company has entered
into employment agreements, expiring on October 31, 1998, with each of Messrs.
Altro, Mars and Goldenberg, which employment agreements include, among other
things, provisions restricting such persons from competing with the Company
during the term of their employment and for a period of two years thereafter if
their employment with the Company is terminated for cause or voluntarily by such
persons. In the event of the loss of any such persons, no assurances can be
given that the Company will be able to obtain the services of adequate
replacement personnel.
Control by Certain Existing Shareholders. Messrs. Alto, Mars and
Goldenberg, directors and executive officers of the Company, together with an
executive officer of Grand Canada (together with members of their immediate
families) beneficially own approximately 42.64% of the Company's currently
issued and outstanding stock. In addition, the foregoing persons beneficially
own options to purchase an aggregate of 3,402,554 shares of Common Stock, which
options, if exercised in full, together with the shares of Common Stock
currently beneficially owned, would represent approximately 60.21% of the
Company's issued and outstanding capital stock. Further, of these, options to
purchase 2,127,554 shares are intended to represent an aggregate of 24.16% of
the issued and outstanding capital stock on a fully diluted basis and are
therefore subject to increase or decrease based upon changes in the number of
shares of the Company's Common Stock from time to time outstanding. These
adjustment provisions would have the effect of protecting these shareholders, in
part, from dilution as a result of the subsequent issuances of stock by the
Company.
<PAGE>
By virtue of the number of shares of Common Stock and options to
purchase Common Stock owned by Messrs. Altro, Mars and Goldenberg, such persons
will have the ability to determine the election of all the Company's directors
and control most corporate actions. Messrs. Mars, Altro and Goldenberg could
therefore vote against certain corporate activities that could benefit the other
shareholders of the Company, or in favor of certain actions that could benefit
them but not be in the best interests of the Company's other shareholders, such
as any merger or acquisition or other takeover proposition offers the Company
could in the future receive from third parties.
Shares Eligible for Future Sale; Outstanding Options and Warrants.
There are currently 7,704,500 shares of Common Stock of the Company outstanding
and options and warrants to acquire an additional 6,687,554 shares of Common
Stock are also outstanding. The voting power of each holder of Common stock
would be diluted by the issuance of these additional shares of Common Stock are
also outstanding. Moreover, the prevailing market price for the Common Stock may
be materially and adversely affected by the addition of a substantial number of
shares of Common Stock, including the shares offered hereby, into the market or
by the registration under the Securities Act for the sale of the shares
underlying such options and warrants.
Risks of Acquisitions. The Company may at times become involved in
discussions with potential acquisition candidates. However, there can be no
assurances that the Company will identify and/or consummate any acquisitions, or
that such acquisitions, if completed, will be successful. In addition, should
the Company consummate an acquisition, such acquisition could have an adverse
effect on the Company's liquidity and earnings.
New Products. As a result of changing consumer preferences, many
products in the toy industry are successfully marketed for only one or two
years. In the event a new product does not receive sufficient market acceptance,
the Company may be required to sell inventory, if any exists, of such products
at a substantial discount. Accordingly, the success of the Company is dependent
in large part on its ability to secure the rights to distribute new products and
to secure new character and well-known brand name licenses for existing or new
product lines. There can be no assurance, however, that any new products will be
successful or meet with the same success as the Company's existing products.
Government Regulation. The Company is subject to the provisions of
various laws, certain of which have been enacted by the Federal Government of
Canada and others which have been enacted by the government of the Province of
Quebec and other Canadian provinces. The laws of Canada, to which the Company is
subject, include the Hazardous Products Act which empowers the government to
protect children from hazardous toys and other articles. Under that legislation
the government has the authority to exclude from the market those articles which
are found to be hazardous. The Company is also subject to the Consumer Packaging
and Labeling Act enacted by the government of Canada, which legislation
prohibits the importing into Canada of prepackaged items and which prohibits the
sale or import or advertising in Canada of items which have misleading
information on their label.
Competition. Competition in the toy industry is intense. Many other
companies involved in such businesses in Canada and the United States have
greater financial resources than the Company, and larger sales forces, greater
name recognition, larger facilities for product development and products that
may be more competitively priced than the Company's products.
Maintenance Criteria for NASDAQ Securities; Disclosure Relating to
Low-Priced Stocks. In order to continue to be included on NASDAQ, a company
currently must maintain $2 million in total assets, a $200,000 market value of
the public float and $1 million in total capital and surplus. In addition,
continued inclusion requires two market-makers, at least 300 holders of the
Common Stock and a minimum bid price of $1 per share; provided, however, that if
a company falls below such minimum bid price, it will remain eligible for
continued inclusion in NASDAQ if the market value of the public float is at
least $1 million and the Company has $2 million in capital and surplus.
On November 6, 1996, the Board of Directors of the National Association
of Securities Dealers, Inc., approved proposed changes to the maintenance
standards for securities listed on NASDAQ. The changes would (i) increase the
required market value of public float from $200,000 to $1,000,000; (ii) require
maintenance of $2 million in Net Tangible Assets (defined to mean total assets
less total liabilities and goodwill) or net income of $500,000 in two of the
last three years or a market capitalization of $35 million. In addition, the
changes would impose corporate governance standards consisting of (i) a minimum
of two independent directors; (ii) an audit committee, a majority of the members
of which are independent directors; (iii) an annual shareholder meeting; and
(iv) shareholder approval for certain corporate actions. These proposed changes
will become effective if, after the expiration of the thirty-day comment period,
they are approved by the Commission.
The failure to meet these maintenance criteria in the future may result
in the discontinuance of the inclusion of the Company's Common Stock on NASDAQ.
In such event, trading, if any, in the Company's Common Stock may then continue
to be conducted on the electronic bulletin board operated by the National
Association of Securities Dealers, Inc. or on the "pink sheets." As a result, an
investor may find it more difficult to dispose of, or to obtain accurate
quotations as to the market value of, the shares of the Company's Common Stock.
In addition, the Company would be subject to a rule promulgated by the
Commission that, if the Company fails to meet certain criteria set forth in such
rule, imposes various sales practice requirements on broker-dealers who sell
securities governed by the rule to persons other than established customers and
accredited investors. For these types of transactions, the broker-dealer must
make a special suitability determination for the purchaser and have received the
purchaser's written consent to the transactions prior to sale. Consequently, the
rule may have an adverse effect on the ability of broker-dealers to sell the
Company's Common Stock, which may affect the ability of purchasers of the Shares
offered hereby to sell the Company's Common Stock in the secondary market.
The Commission has also adopted rules that define a "penny stock."
Although the Common Stock is currently outside the definitional scope of a penny
stock under the new rules, in the event the Company's Common Stock were
subsequently characterized as a penny stock, broker-dealers dealing in the
Company's Common Stock will be subject to the disclosure rules for transactions
involving penny stocks. The additional burdens imposed upon broker-dealers may
discourage broker-dealers from effecting transactions in penny stocks which
could reduce the liquidity of the Company's Common Stock. These new rules could
then have a material adverse effect on the trading market for the Company's
Common Stock.
No Dividends. The Company has not paid any cash or other dividends on
its Common Stock and does not expect to declare or pay any cash dividends in the
foreseeable future. In addition, the Company's current credit agreement with its
bank restricts the payment of any dividends without the bank's prior consent.
FORWARD LOOKING STATEMENTS
To the extent identified therein, certain of the documents incorporated
herein by reference contain statements that are forward looking statements that
involve risks and uncertainties. Accordingly, as described therein, no
assurances can be given that the actual events and results will not be
materially different from the anticipated events and results described in the
forward looking statements.
