BOLLINGER INDUSTRIES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(UNAUDITED)
NOTE A - GENERAL
The consolidated interim financial statements include the accounts of Bollinger
Industries, Inc., its wholly-owned subsidiaries, and Bollinger Industries, L.P.,
a partnership wholly-owned by Bollinger's subsidiaries (collectively the
"Company").
The consolidated interim financial statements included herein have been prepared
by the Company pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and
Exchange Commission (the "SEC"). Certain information and footnote disclosure
normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with generally
accepted accounting principles ("GAAP") have been condensed or omitted pursuant
to such rules and regulations, although the Company believes that the
disclosures are adequate to make the information presented not misleading. These
financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated
financial statements and notes for the fiscal year ended March 31, 1999
contained in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K.
In the opinion of management, the unaudited interim consolidated financial
statements of the Company contain all adjustments, consisting only of those of a
normal recurring nature, necessary to present fairly the Company's financial
position and the results of its operations and cash flows for the periods
presented. The results of operations for the periods presented are not
necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year.
The preparation of financial statements in accordance with GAAP requires
management to make estimates and assumptions. Such estimates and assumptions
affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, as well as the disclosure
of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements,
and the reported amounts of revenue and expense during the reporting period.
Actual results could differ from these estimates.
Reclassifications
Certain prior year amounts may have been reclassified to conform to the current
year presentation.
Revenue Recognition and Provisions for Chargebacks and Buybacks
The Company recognizes sales revenue at the time products are shipped to its
customers. Provision is made currently for estimated product returns and
deductions, which may occur. These returns are generally for products that are
salable with minor reworking of packaging or replacement of missing components.
The term "Chargebacks" refers to the action taken by the customer to withhold
payments or to apply for credit amounts for items such as volume discounts or
rebates under marketing programs or pricing discrepancies, penalties, vendor
compliance issues, shipping shortages and any other similar item under vendor
compliance guidelines established by the customer.

BOLLINGER INDUSTRIES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(UNAUDITED - CONTINUED)
NOTE A - GENERAL-CONTINUED
The provision for returns is estimated based on current trends and historical
experience of returns. The provision for chargebacks is estimated based on the
marketing programs designed for customers, and recent historical experience
based on volume.
In certain limited circumstances, the Company has followed a "buyback" policy
whereby the Company purchases competitors product from a new customer in order
to obtain shelf space for the Company's product lines. The cost of such
"buyback" is amortized over the life of the program, which typically has been
two to three years.

customer during the first quarter of fiscal 1999. The Company advised the
customer of this payment, but the customer did not request an immediate
repayment. By the end of the third quarter of fiscal 1999, the overpayment was

(UNAUDITED-CONTINUED)
NOTE D - NOTES PAYABLE AND LONG TERM DEBT
The Company currently has a revolving credit facility with a financial
institution providing a maximum line of $15 million, subject to certain
borrowing base requirements and covenants, which expires in August 2002. In June
1999 the loan agreement was amended, primarily revising certain negative
performance covenants involving tangible net worth and debt to tangible net
worth ratios. The outstanding balance under the credit line is collateralized by
substantially all of the Company's assets, including accounts receivable and
inventory. As of June 30, 1999 there was $4,175,000 outstanding. Availability
under the line was $903,000 at June 30, 1999.
The Company has a convertible subordinated note payable for $1,400,000 and a
five-year term pursuant to the asset purchase agreement with The Step Company.
The note bears interest at the rate of prime plus one percent adjusted
quarterly. The holder has the right to convert the outstanding principal balance
into fully paid and non-assessable shares of the Company's unregistered common
stock subject to predefined ratios.
NOTE E - INCOME TAXES
The Company's effective income tax rates for the three months ended June 30,
1998 and 1999 was 0% based on utilization of a tax loss carry-forward (and lack
of income). At June 30, 1999 the Company had net operating losses available to
offset future taxable income of approximately $11.4 million which begin expiring
in 2011.
NOTE F - COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
The Company, Glenn D. Bollinger (Chairman and CEO), Bobby D. Bollinger
(President), Curtis D. Logan (former CFO), Michael J. Beck (former CAO), John L.
Maguire (Director), William Blair & Company (former underwriters of initial
public offering), Rauscher Pierce Refsnes, Inc. (former underwriters of initial
public offering) and Grant Thornton, L.L.P. (former independent accountants) are
defendants in a lawsuit filed on March 22, 1996, by shareholder Suntrust Bank
Atlanta, as Trustee for Suntrust Retirement Sunbelt Equity Fund, on behalf of
themselves and all persons similarly situated. This lawsuit was filed as a class
action suit on behalf of those who purchased securities through a public
offering by the Company, alleging that the prices were artificially inflated and
maintained in violation of the anti-fraud provisions of the securities law as
well as common law. The substantive terms of a memorandum of settlement had been
mutually agreed to by the Company and counsel for the plaintiffs as of June 30,
1999, but the plaintiffs withdrew the negotiated settlement offer subsequent to
the end of the quarter. See "Part II-Other Information, Item 1. Legal
Proceedings."

(UNAUDITED-CONTINUED)
NOTE F - COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES-CONTINUED
The Company, Glenn D. Bollinger, Bobby D. Bollinger, Curtis D. Logan and Michael
J. Beck are defendants in a lawsuit filed on March 22, 1996, in the United
States District Court for the Northern District of Texas, Dallas Division, by
shareholders STI Classic Fund and STI Classic Sunbelt, on behalf of themselves
and all persons similarly situated in the 68th Judicial District Court of Dallas
County, Texas. The substantive terms of a memorandum of settlement had been
mutually agreed to by the Company and counsel for the plaintiffs as of June 30,
1999, but the plaintiffs withdrew the negotiated settlement offer subsequent to
the end of the quarter. See "Part II - Other Information, Item 1. Legal
Proceedings."
In March 1999, the Company recorded a contingent liability of $3,000,000 in
anticipated settlement of both the STI action and the Suntrust action mentioned
above.
An investigation of the Company's Employee Stock Ownership Plan (the "ESOP") is
presently pending before the U.S. Department of Labor ("USDoL"). Assets of the
ESOP are held in the Company's 401(k) Plan, which is the successor to the ESOP.
This investigation, begun in 1996, pertains to transactions in 1994, and is
ongoing. The USDoL has asserted various breaches of fiduciary duties by the
Company and the Plan trustees arising out of the administration of the ESOP. The
Company intends to vigorously pursue all available defenses.
The Internal Revenue Service ("IRS") has examined the Company's Employees
Retirement Plan and Trust ("Plan"). In order to maintain its tax exempt status,
the Plan must comply with certain tests and limitations of the Internal Revenue
Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code"). Based on the audit of the 1994 plan year,
the IRS has proposed to disqualify the Plan for purposes of Section 401(a) of
the Code. The Company has filed a protest of the proposed disqualification which
is presently pending before the Appeals Division of the IRS. At this time, the
effect of such an IRS disqualification on the Company or the Plan, if any,
cannot be determined.
In connection with an investigation by the Securities and Exchange Commission,
in September 1996, the Company consented to the entry of an order of permanent
injunction which enjoins the Company from violating the antifraud, periodic
reporting, record keeping and internal accounting controls provisions of the
Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"), and
regulations promulgated thereunder in the future in the conduct of its business.
Glenn Bollinger also consented to the entry of an order of permanent injunction
enjoining him from violations of the antifraud, record keeping, periodic
reporting and internal accounting controls provisions of the
10

(UNAUDITED-CONTINUED)
NOTE F- COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES-CONTINUED
Exchange Act and regulations promulgated thereunder in the future, and agreed to
the payment of a monetary penalty in the amount of $40,000. Ronald Bollinger
also consented to the entry of an order of permanent injunction enjoining him
from violations of the antifraud, record keeping, periodic reporting and
internal accounting controls provisions of the Exchange Act and regulations
promulgated thereunder in the future, and agreed not to act as a director or
officer of a registered or reporting entity.
From time to time the Company is a party to various legal proceedings arising in
the ordinary course of business. The Company is not currently a party to any
other material litigation and is not aware of any litigation threatened against
the Company, arising in the ordinary course of business, which could have a
material adverse effect on the Company.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS
OF OPERATIONS.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
The following discussion should be read in conjunction with the Company's Annual
Reports on Form 10-K and consolidated financial statements for the fiscal years
ended March 31, 1999 and March 31, 1998; the Company's Form 10-Q for the quarter
ended June 30, 1998; and the consolidated financial statements and related notes
for the quarter ended June 30, 1999 found elsewhere in this report.
QUARTER ENDED JUNE 30, 1999 COMPARED WITH QUARTER ENDED JUNE 30, 1998
Net sales decreased for the quarter ended June 30, 1999 by $237,000 on a
comparative basis with the prior year. The decrease in net sales resulted from
the loss of a major customer in September 1998 significantly offset by increases
in net sales resulting from acquisitions in October 1998.
Gross profits as a percent of net sales increased dramatically for fitness
accessory products to 33.0% in the quarter ended June 30, 1999 from 26.8% in the
quarter ended June 30, 1998. The improvement was primarily due to improved
pricing from overseas vendors and better controls over related expenses.
Selling expenses for the quarter ended June 30, 1999 decreased by $219,000 as
compared to the quarter ended June 30, 1998, and decreased as a percentage of
net sales to 10.1% from 12.8%. The dollar and percentage decrease in selling
expense were primarily related to lower commission, royalty and advertising
expenses.
Distribution, general and administrative expenses for the quarter ended June 30,
1999 decreased by $90,000 as compared to the quarter ended June 30, 1998, and
decreased as a percentage of net sales to 28.4% in 1999 from 28.7% in 1998. The
decrease in distribution, general and administrative expenses resulted from
lower payroll and legal costs partially offset by increased depreciation and
amortization expenses.
The Company sustained an operating loss of $392,000 for the quarter ended June
30, 1999, as compared to an operating loss of $1,088,000 in the same quarter
last year. As a percentage of net sales, the operating loss decreased from 14.7%
in 1998 to 5.5% in 1999. The reduction of the operating loss was primarily from
improved gross margin.
Interest expense for the quarter ended June 30, 1999 was $252,000 compared to
$119,000 for the same quarter in the previous year. The increase in interest
expense was primarily due to increased borrowings to fund losses and interest
expense on acquisition costs.
12
<PAGE> 13
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
The Company's principal source of outside financing in the past several years
has been short-term borrowings from banks and asset-based lenders. Net cash
provided by operating activities for the quarter ended June 30, 1999 was
$2,621,000 compared to cash provided by operating activities for the same period
in the prior year of $825,000. Cash generated from the collection of accounts
receivable and the increase in accounts payable was used to fund operating
losses in the quarter ended June 30, 1999. Shortly before the fiscal year end on
March 31, 1998, the Company received $1,125,000 in cash from a major customer
that should have been properly payable to the purchaser of the trampoline
product line. The Company received another $818,000 from the customer during the
quarter ended June 30, 1998. The Company advised the customer of this payment,
but the customer did not request an immediate repayment. By the end of the third
quarter of fiscal 1999, the overpayment was eliminated by the customer's
continued purchases of product from the Company.
The Company has a revolving credit facility with a financial institution
providing a maximum line of $15 million, subject to certain borrowing base
requirements and covenants, which expires in August 2002. In June 1999 the loan
agreement was amended, primarily revising certain negative performance covenants
involving tangible net worth and debt to tangible net worth ratios. The
outstanding balance under the credit line is collateralized by substantially all
the Company's assets, including accounts receivable and inventory. As of June
30, 1999 there was $4,175,000 outstanding. Availability under the line was
$903,000 at June 30, 1999. Subsequent to June 30, 1999 the Company's primary
lender reduced the advance rate on inventory which significantly reduced
availability under the line. The Company is continuing discussions with its
lender for a return to a more favorable advance rate.
The Company has a convertible subordinated note payable for $1,400,000 and a
five year term pursuant to the asset purchase agreement with The Step Company.
The note bears interest at the rate of prime plus one percent adjusted
quarterly. The holder has the right to convert the outstanding principal balance
into fully paid and non-assessable shares of the Company's unregistered common
stock subject to predefined ratios.
Outstanding balances in the quarter ended June 30, 1999 bore interest at a rate
of 9.25% compared to an approximate rate of 10.13% for the quarter ended June
30, 1998.
In March 1999, the Company recorded a contingent liability of $3,000,000 in
anticipated settlement of both the STI and Suntrust lawsuits. The plaintiffs
withdrew the negotiated settlement offer subsequent to the end of June 1999. A
$3,000,000 accrual for legal contingency remains on the balance sheet in
anticipation of continuing negotiations. Whether the Company will be successful
in securing a final settlement is uncertain.
YEAR 2000 COMPLIANCE
The Company is aware of the issues associated with the programming code in
existing computer systems as the millennium (year 2000) approaches. The year
2000 problem is pervasive and complex as virtually every computer operation will
be affected in some way by the rollover of the two digit year value to 00. The
issue is whether computer systems will properly recognize data-sensitive
information when the year 2000 arrives. Systems that do not properly recognize
such information could generate erroneous data or cause a system to fail.
Although the Company's previous accounting system was believed to be year 2000
compliant, in 1998 the Company began installing a new accounting system that was
confirmed by the vendor to
13
<PAGE> 14
address the year 2000-related issues. The upgrade to the new system was
completed during the second quarter of fiscal 1999. The Company has begun to
analyze the external factors, such as the impact on those vendors and customers
adversely affected by the year 2000 issue, in assessing the related potential
effect on the Company's business, financial condition and results of operations.
Since much of the Company's products are imported, the Company has developed
redundant suppliers to help alleviate risk. There can be no assurance that
computer systems and applications of other companies, on which the Company's
operations rely, will be converted in a timely fashion, or that such failure to
correct by another company would not have a material adverse effect on the
Company.
FACTORS THAT COULD AFFECT FUTURE PERFORMANCE
Certain statements contained in this Report, including without limitation,
statements containing the words "believes," "anticipates," "intends," "expects,"
and words of similar import, constitute "forward-looking statements." Such
forward-looking statements involve numerous assumptions about known and unknown
risks, uncertainties and other factors which may ultimately prove to be
inaccurate. Certain of these factors are discussed in more detail elsewhere in
this Report, including without limitation under "Item 2. Management's Discussion
and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations" and include the
Company's ability to continue to improve gross margin, to reduce distribution,
general and administrative expenses, including those associated with litigation,
and to achieve profitability. Actual results may differ materially from any
future results expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. The
Company disclaims any obligation to update any forward-looking statements or
publicly revise any of the forward-looking statements contained herein to
reflect future events or developments.
Whether the STI and Suntrust lawsuits will be settled or will proceed through
the judicial process is uncertain. There can be no assurances that the Company
and the plaintiffs will ultimately reach an acceptable settlement and there can
be no assurances that the Company could fund an extensive legal proceeding or
withstand an unfavorable judgement at trial.
As discussed in "Part I, Item 2. Liquidity and Capital Resources" changes in the
inventory advance rate subsequent to quarter end have impaired the Company's
borrowing ability under its line of credit. The Company's ability to generate
sufficient funding for operations, including the resolution of the shareholder
derivative lawsuits, depend on future operating earnings, market conditions and
lender forbearance.
Investors are cautioned that forward-looking statements involve certain risks
and uncertainties that could cause actual results of the Company to differ
materially from those contained in the forward-looking statements. In addition
to the factors mentioned above, other important factors include, but are not
limited to: seasonality, advertising and promotional efforts, availability and
terms of capital, future acquisitions, economic conditions, consumer
preferences, lack of success of new products, loss of customer loyalty,
heightened competition and other factors discussed in this Report. The Company
disclaims any obligation to update or to publicly revise any of the
forward-looking statements contained herein to reflect future events or
developments.

The Company continues to suffer operating losses. Nothing contained in these
financial statements or in Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial
Condition and Results of Operations should be interpreted as a guarantee of
future earnings or a change in financial condition. The actual results of the
Company could differ materially from the statements found in this section and
elsewhere in this Report.

PART II - OTHER INFORMATION
ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
Cause No. 96-02952; Suntrust Bank Atlanta, as Trustee for Suntrust Retirement
Sunbelt Equity Fund v. Bollinger Industries, Inc., Glenn D. Bollinger, Bobby D.
Bollinger, Curtis D. Logan, Michael J. Beck, John L. Maguire, William Blair &
Company, Rauscher Pierce Refsnes, Inc. and Grant Thornton, L.L.P.; in the 68th
Judicial District Court of Dallas County, Texas (the "Suntrust Lawsuit"):
The Company, Glenn D. Bollinger (Chairman and CEO), Bobby D. Bollinger
(President), Curtis D. Logan (former CFO), Michael J. Beck (former CAO), John L.
Maguire (Director), William Blair & Company (former underwriters of initial
public offering), Rauscher Pierce Refsnes, Inc. (former underwriters of initial
public offering) and Grant Thornton, L.L.P. (former independent accountants) are
defendants in a lawsuit filed on March 22, 1996, by shareholder Suntrust Bank
Atlanta, as Trustee for Suntrust Retirement Sunbelt Equity Fund, on behalf of
themselves and all persons similarly situated. This lawsuit was filed as a class
action suit on behalf of those who purchased securities through a public
offering by the Company, alleging that the prices were artificially inflated and
maintained in violation of the anti-fraud provisions of the securities law as
well as common law. The substantive terms of a memorandum of settlement had been
mutually agreed to by the Company and council for the plaintiffs as of June 30,
1999, but the plaintiffs subsequently withdrew the negotiated settlement offer
because the Company did not obtain consent from its lender that was in a form
acceptable to all parties.
Civil Action No. 3:96C-V-0823-R; STI Classic Fund and STI Classic Sunbelt v.
Bollinger Industries, Inc., Glenn D. Bollinger, Bobby D. Bollinger, Curtis D.
Logan, and Michael J. Beck; in the United States District Court for the Northern
District of Texas, Dallas Division ("the STI Lawsuit"):
The Company, Glenn D. Bollinger, Bobby D. Bollinger, Curtis D. Logan and Michael
J. Beck, are defendants in a lawsuit filed on March 22, 1996, in the United
States District Court for the Northern District of Texas, Dallas Division, by
shareholders STI Classic Fund and STI Classic Sunbelt, on behalf of themselves
and all persons similarly situated. As with the similar suit mentioned above,
the substantive terms of a memorandum of settlement had been mutually agreed to
by the Company and council for the plaintiffs as of June 30, 1999, but the
plaintiffs subsequently withdrew the negotiated settlement offer because the
Company did not obtain consent from its lender that was in a form acceptable to
all parties.
An investigation of the Company's Employee Stock Ownership Plan (the "ESOP") is
presently pending before the U.S. Department of Labor ("USDoL"). Assets of the
ESOP are held in the Company's 401(k) Plan, which is the successor to the ESOP.
This investigation, begun in 1996, pertains to transactions in 1994, and is
ongoing. The USDoL has asserted various breaches of fiduciary duties by the
Company and the Plan trustees arising out of the administration of the ESOP. The
Company intends to vigorously pursue all available defenses.
The Internal Revenue Service ("IRS") has examined the Company's Employees
Retirement Plan and Trust ("Plan"). In order to maintain its tax exempt status,
the Plan must comply with certain
16
<PAGE> 17
tests and limitations of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the
"Code"). Based on the 1994 plan year audit, the IRS has proposed to disqualify
the Plan for purposes of Section 401(a) of the Code. The Company has filed a
protest of the proposed disqualification which is presently pending before the
Appeals Division of the IRS. At this time, the effect of such an IRS
disqualification on the Company or the Plan, if any, cannot be determined.
In connection with an investigation by the Securities and Exchange Commission,
in September 1996, the Company consented to the entry of an order of permanent
injunction which enjoins the Company from violating the antifraud, periodic
reporting, record keeping and internal accounting controls provisions of the
Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act") and
regulations promulgated thereunder in the future in the conduct of its business.
Glenn Bollinger also consented to the entry of an order of permanent injunction
enjoining him from violations of the antifraud, record keeping, periodic
reporting and internal accounting controls provisions of the Exchange Act and
regulations promulgated thereunder in the future, and agreed to the payment of a
monetary penalty in the amount of $40,000. Ronald Bollinger also consented to
the entry of an order of permanent injunction enjoining him from violations of
the antifraud, record keeping, periodic reporting and internal accounting
controls provisions of the Exchange Act and regulations promulgated thereunder
in the future, and agreed not to act as a director or officer of a registered or
reporting entity.
From time to time, the Company is a party to various legal proceedings arising
in the ordinary course of business. The Company is not currently a party to any
other material litigation and is not aware of any litigation threatened against
the Company, arising in the ordinary course of business, that could have a
material adverse effect on the Company.

Lender of the Financial Covenant Defaults, Borrower has requested that Lender
waive the Financial Covenant Defaults. In the exercise of its discretion as a
prudent lender, Lender hereby waives the Financial Covenant Defaults for the
fiscal quarter ended March 31, 1999. Except as expressly set forth in this
