     Total comprehensive income for the nine months ended October 2, 1999 was
     $127 versus comprehensive deficit of $(93) for the year ended January 2,
     1999. Total comprehensive income (deficit) includes foreign currency
     translation adjustments.


    NOTE 2.     EXERCISE OF WARRANTS

     In July and August 1999 Bear, Stearns and Co, Inc., and BT Capital
     Partners, Inc., exercised warrants to purchase 1,267,183 shares of the
     Company's common stock at the exercise price of $0.01 per share. This
     increased the outstanding shares of common stock to 8,498,304 as of August
     13, 1999; note that this had no effect on the computation of diluted
     earnings per share since the warrants have been included in the computation
     as common stock equivalents in each historical period since July 30, 1997.


    NOTE 3.     REFINANCING

     On October 21, 1999 the Company entered into a new $70 million bank credit
     facility. The refinancing, provided by Banque Nationale de Paris (BNP) and
     a syndicate of banks, includes a six-year, $35.0 million senior secured
     term loan and a five-year, $35.0 million senior secured revolving credit
     facility. The new facility replaced the Company's existing credit facility,
     and also redeemed the $19.3 million of outstanding preferred stock which
     carried a 13.25% after-tax dividend.

ITEM 2.  MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
         RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

     Statement of Forward-Looking Information:

     The Company may occasionally make forward-looking statements and estimates,
     such as forecasts and projections of the Company's future performance or
     statements of management's plans and objectives. These forward-looking
     statements may be contained in SEC filings, Annual Reports to Shareholders,
     Press Releases and oral statements, among others, made by the Company.
     Actual results could differ materially from those in such forward-looking
     statements. Therefore, no assurances can be given that the results in such
     forward-looking statements will be achieved. Important factors that could
     cause the Company's actual results to differ from those contained in such
     forward-looking statements include, among others, those factors set forth
     in Exhibit 99 to the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year
     ended January 2, 1999, and incorporated herein by reference.

     Results of Operations:

     THREE MONTHS ENDED OCTOBER 2, 1999 AND OCTOBER 3, 1998 ($ in thousands)

     Net sales for the three months ended October 2, 1999 increased 25.9% to
     $40,848 from $32,442 in the comparable period of 1998. The majority of the
     increase in net sales is due to sales of new products introduced in 1999,
     in addition to increased sales from existing products as the Company
     obtained greater distribution of its core product line.

     Gross profit for the three months ended October 2, 1999 was $15,703, or
     38.4% of net sales, as compared to $12,408, or 38.2% for the three months
     ended October 3, 1998. The increase in gross profit percentage was
     primarily due to reductions in product costs achieved in the third quarter
     of 1999.

     Selling, general and administrative expenses increased by $1,967 to
     $11,753, or 28.8% of net sales, for the three months ended October 2, 1999
     from $9,786, or 30.2% of net sales for the comparable period in 1998. This
     increase is primarily attributable to an increase in selling related
     expenses caused by the sales increase as well as an increase in payroll and
     payroll related costs. The reduction as a percentage of sales is due to the
     leveraging of fixed costs over a higher sales base.

     As a result of the above factors, operating income for the three months
     ended October 2, 1999 was $3,950. The operating income for the comparable
     period last year was $2,621. This represents an increase of 50.7%.

     Interest expense decreased by $136 to $930 for the three months ended
     October 2, 1999 from $1,066 for the three months ended October 3, 1998 due
     to lower average costs of borrowing.

     NINE MONTHS ENDED OCTOBER 2, 1999 AND OCTOBER 3, 1998 ($ in thousands)

     Net sales for the nine months ended October 2, 1999 increased 25.2% to
     $120,621 from $96,330 in the comparable period of 1998. The majority of the
     increase in net sales is due to sales of new products introduced in 1999,
     in addition to increased sales from existing products as the Company
     obtained greater distribution of its core product line.

     Gross profit for the nine months ended October 2, 1999 was $46,822, or
     38.8% of net sales, as compared to $37,639, or 39.1% for the three months
     ended October 3, 1998. The decrease was primarily due to product mix as the
     percentage of bulk products, which contain lower margins, continues to
     increase as a percentage of total sales.

                                       8

     Selling, general and administrative expenses increased by $4,874 to
     $34,387, or 28.5% of net sales, for the nine months ended October 2, 1999
     from $29,513, or 30.6% of net sales for the comparable period in 1998. This
     increase is primarily attributable to an increase in selling related
     expenses caused by the sales increase as well as an increase in payroll and
     payroll related costs. The reduction as a percentage of sales is due to the
     leveraging of fixed costs over a higher sales base.

     As a result of the above factors, operating income for the nine months
     ended October 2, 1999 was $12,435. The operating income for the comparable
     period last year was $8,125. This represents an increase of 53.0%.

     Interest expense decreased by $158 to $2,865 for the nine months ended
     October 2, 1999 from $3,023 for the nine months ended October 3, 1998.

     LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

     The Company's primary capital requirements are for working capital and
     capital expenditures. The Company's capital needs are provided by
     availability under the Company's term loan and revolving credit facility,
     as well as through internally generated funds.

     Net cash provided by operations was $4,373 for the nine months ended
     October 2, 1999, with the net income generated by the Company being used to
     fund increases in accounts receivable and inventory.

     Cash flows used in investing activities was $5,062 related to the purchase
     of property and equipment, principally molds for new product introductions.
     Net cash provided by financing activities was $485.

     The Company believes that its cash, together with its current bank facility
     will be sufficient to meet its operating and other cash requirements for at
     least the next twelve months.

     Year 2000

     The Year 2000 ("Y2K") problem is a result of computer programs being
     written using two digits (rather than four) to define the applicable year.
     Any of the Company's programs that have time-sensitive software may
     recognize a date using "00" as the year 1900 rather than the year 2000.
     This could result in a major system failure or miscalculation. In addition,
     the Company's major customers and vendors must also be Y2K compliant to
     ensure that customer orders will be properly processed and that vendors
     will be able to supply the Company with inventory per the terms of its
     purchase orders. There could be a material disruption in the Company's
     business if the computer systems of the Company, its customers or its
     vendors are not Y2K compliant.

     The Company is addressing the Y2K issue in a three-part approach. The first
     task completed was to upgrade the Company's internal computer systems to
     become Y2K compliant for recurring transaction processing and financial
     record keeping. In January 1999 the Company migrated to a new BaaN computer
     system which enables all significant internal systems to be Y2K compliant.
     The implementation cost of the system was approximately $5,400,000. The
     second issue addressed by the Company was to work with the Company's
     customers to ensure that sales orders, particularly those generated via EDI
     transmissions, will be able to be processed with the Year 2000 dates. The
     Company's major customers are large retailers such as Wal-Mart and Toys
     `R Us, who have invested substantial resources related to Year 2000 issues,
     and virtually all of the Company's major accounts have been tested for Y2K
     processing issues with no significant problems noted to date. The final
     issue is to ensure that the Company's vendors will be able to fulfill
     purchase orders with Year 2000 dates. The Company uses approximately 10
     significant vendors to source the majority of its product, and all of these
     vendors (as well as the smaller vendors) are being thoroughly reviewed by
     the Company at this time to ensure that they will be Y2K compliant.

                                       9

<PAGE>   10

     Based on the work performed to date, the Company believes that there will
     be no material disruption in its business resulting from Y2K issues. The
     Company is developing contingency plans for both customers and vendors to
     increase its readiness for potential issues, which will be completed during
     fiscal 1999. The cost to complete these contingency plans is estimated to
     be less than $100,000.
