                                     PART I

ITEM 1.    DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS.

GENERAL

           The  Company  is  a  leading   remanufacturer   and   distributor  of
replacement  alternators  and starters for imported cars and light trucks in the
United States.  The Company's  alternators and starters are  remanufactured  for
vehicles imported from Japan, Germany, Sweden, England, France, Italy and Korea.
The  imported  vehicles  for which the Company  remanufactures  alternators  and
starters  also include (i) "world  cars," which are produced by General  Motors,
Chrysler and Ford and originally  equipped with  components  produced by foreign
manufacturers,  and (ii)  "transplants,"  which are  manufactured  in the United
States by Toyota,  Nissan,  Honda,  Mazda and others. The Company also assembles
and  distributes  ignition  wire sets for imported  and domestic  cars and light
trucks.

           The Company's  products are sold throughout the United States to many
of the nation's largest chains of retail automotive  stores,  including Northern
Automotive,  AutoZone,  The Pep Boys,  Hi-Lo  Automotive,  Trak  Automotive  and
O'Reilly  Automotive.  The  Company  also  sells its  alternators  and  starters
throughout  Canada  as a  supplier  to that  country's  largest  chain of retail
automotive stores, Canadian Tire. During the last several years, the Company has
concentrated on sales to retail automotive chains, which the Company believes is
the fastest growing segment of the automotive after-market industry. As a result
of these efforts,  the Company commenced  shipments to AutoZone and The Pep Boys
in  fiscal  1995  and  to  Canadian  Tire  in  fiscal  1996.  For  fiscal  1996,
approximately 72% of the  Company's  sales  were to  retail  automotive  chains
comprised of approximately 3,700 stores,  with the balance of sales primarily
to large warehouse distributors, such as Parts, Inc. and Hahn Automotive.

           In fiscal 1996, Delphi selected the Company to supply  remanufactured
alternators and starters for imported vehicles for distribution  through Service
Parts  Operations  (SPO). In September 1995, the Company  commenced  shipment of
products under this new arrangement. The units supplied by the Company under its
arrangement  with Delphi will be sold under General  Motors'  private label,  AC
Delco.

THE AUTOMOTIVE AFTER-MARKET INDUSTRY

           The Company's market, the import automotive after-market industry for
alternators   and   starters,   which  is  comprised   almost   exclusively   of
remanufacturers and rebuilders, has experienced significant growth during recent
years.  The  Company  expects  this  growth to  continue  as a result of several
trends. These trends include the proliferation of imported cars and light trucks
(including world cars and transplants) in use, the growth in the number of miles
driven each year and the growth in the number of imported  vehicles at the prime
repair age of four years and older.


                                                    
                                       -2-

<PAGE>


           Two distinct  groups of end-users buy replacement  automotive  parts:
(i) individual consumers, who purchase parts to perform "do-it-yourself" repairs
on  their  own  vehicles;  and  (ii)  professional  installers,   which  include
automotive repair shops and the service departments of automobile  dealers.  The
individual  consumer market is typically  supplied through retailers and through
the retail arms of warehouse  distributors.  Automotive  repair shops  generally
purchase parts through local  independent parts wholesalers and through national
warehouse  distributors.  Automobile dealer service departments generally obtain
parts through the distribution  systems of automobile  manufacturers.  In recent
years,  chains of retail  stores in the  automotive  after-market  industry have
become an increasingly  important  channel for the distribution of the Company's
products. In addition, the Company also believes that significant  consolidation
among  distributors  of automotive  replacement  parts has resulted in fewer and
larger distributors.

           Remanufacturing  of  operational  replacement  parts is a significant
component  of the  automotive  aftermarket  industry.  Sales by chains of retail
automotive stores and by automotive  wholesalers of  remanufactured  alternators
and starters  are  believed by the Company to comprise the vast  majority of the
Company's  market.  Only a portion  of that  market is  supplied  by the sale of
similar new  replacement  parts.  Remanufacturing,  which involves the re-use of
parts  which  might  otherwise  be  discarded,  creates  a supply  of parts at a
significantly  lower cost to the user than  newly-manufactured  parts, and makes
available  automotive  parts which are no longer being  manufactured.  By making
readily  available parts for automotive  general use,  remanufacturing  benefits
automotive  repair shops by relieving  them of the need to rebuild worn parts on
an individual  basis and conserves  materials  which would  otherwise be used to
manufacture new replacement  parts.  Most  importantly,  however,  the Company's
remanufactured parts are sold at significantly lower prices than competitive new
replacement  parts.  These features also enable retail  customers  themselves to
engage in cost-saving repairs.

COMPANY PRODUCTS

           The  Company's  primary  products  are   remanufactured   replacement
alternators  and starters for imported cars and light  trucks.  The Company also
assembles and distributes ignition wire sets for the automotive after-market for
use in a wide variety of makes and models of foreign  automobiles.  Alternators,
starters and ignition wire sets are essential components in all makes and models
of automobiles.  These products constitute non-elective replacement parts, which
are  required  for a vehicle to operate.  Approximately  13% of   the  Company's
products  are sold under its brand  name,  including  the use of its  registered
trademark  "MPA," and the remainder are sold for resale under  customer  private
labels.  Customers that sell the Company's  products under private label include
Northern Automotive, The Pep Boys, AutoZone, Parts, Inc. and Delphi.

           The Company's alternators and starters are produced to meet or exceed
automobile manufacturer  specifications depending upon the make and model of the
automobile.  The Company  remanufactures  a broad  assortment  of  starters  and
alternators  in order to accommodate  the numerous and  increasing  varieties of
these products  currently in use. The Company currently  provides  approximately
750 different alternators and 525 different starters.  The Company's alternators
and
                                                    
                                       -3-

starters are  provided  for  virtually  all  Japanese  manufacturers,  including
Toyota,  Honda,  Nissan, Mazda and Mitsubishi,  certain European  manufacturers,
including Mercedes Benz, BMW, Volvo and Volkswagen, manufacturers of world cars,
including  Chrysler,  General  Motors and Ford,  and  foreign  manufacturers  of
transplant cars.

CUSTOMERS

           GENERAL

           The Company's products are marketed  throughout the United States and
Canada.  The Company's  customers  consist of many of the United States' largest
chains of retail automotive stores and automotive  warehouse  distributors.  The
Company also sells its products to Canada's  largest chain of retail  automotive
stores, Canadian Tire. 

           A significant percentage of the Company's sales has been concentrated
among a  relatively  small  number  of  customers.  The  Company's four  largest
customers  accounted for approximately 21%, 11%, 20% and 18%,  respectively,  of
net sales during fiscal 1996. The Company's  three largest  customers  accounted
for  approximately  27%, 14% and 12%,  respectively,  of the Company's net sales
during fiscal 1995.  There can be no assurance that this  concentration of sales
among  customers  will not  continue  in the future.  The loss of a  significant
customer  or a  substantial  decrease  in sales to such a customer  would have a
material  adverse  effect on the  Company's  sales  and  operating  results.  In
addition,  customers  may demand price  concessions  from the Company that could
adversely  affect profit margins.  The Company's  arrangements  with most of its
customers  are based on the receipt of  purchase  orders and  otherwise  are not
subject to long-term  written  contracts and  generally  may be terminated  upon
short notice.

OPERATIONS OF THE COMPANY

           CORES

           In  its   remanufacturing   operations,   the  Company  obtains  used
alternators  and starters,  commonly  known as "cores," which are sorted by make
and model and stored until needed.  When needed for  remanufacturing,  the cores
are  completely  disassembled  into  component  parts.  Components  which can be
incorporated into the remanufactured product are thoroughly cleaned,  tested and
refinished.  All  components  known to be  subject  to  major  wear,  and  those
components  determined  not to be reusable or  repairable,  are  replaced by new
components.  The unit is then  reassembled  on an assembly  line into a finished
product.  Inspection  and  testing  are  conducted  at  various  stages  of  the
remanufacturing  process,  and each finished  product is inspected and tested on
equipment   designed  to  simulate   performance  under  operating   conditions.
Components  of cores  which are not used by the  Company in its  remanufacturing
process are sold as scrap.

           The majority of the cores  remanufactured by the Company are obtained
from customers as trade-ins,  which are credited against future  purchases.  The
Company's customers encourage

                                                    
                                       -4-

<PAGE>


consumers to exchange  their used units at the time of purchase  through the use
of credits.  To a lesser extent,  the Company also  purchases  cores in the open
market from core  brokers,  who are dealers  specializing  in buying and selling
cores.  Although  the  Company  believes  that the open market does not and will
continue  not to  represent  a primary  source of cores,  this  market  offers a
reliable  source for maintaining  stock balance.  Other materials and components
used in  remanufacturing  are also purchased in the open market.  The ability to
obtain cores of the types and quantities required by the Company is essential to
the Company's ability to meet demand and expand production.

           The  price  of  a  finished  product  generally  is  comprised  of  a
separately  invoiced  amount for the core included in the product ("core value")
and an  amount  for  remanufacturing.  Although,  upon  receipt  of a core  as a
trade-in,  credit  generally  is given to the customer for the full current core
value of the unit  traded in. The  Company  believes  it may be  informative  to
indicate the effects of presenting  core trade-ins as a purchase of materials as
opposed to a reduction in sales. The Company limits trade-ins to cores for units
included in its sales catalogs and in condition able to be  remanufactured,  and
credit for cores is allowed  only  against  purchases  by a customer  of similar
remanufactured  products  within a specified  time period.  A  customer's  total
allowable  credit for core trade-ins is further  limited by the dollar volume of
the customer's purchases of similar products within such time period.

           The Company's  reported sales reflect the deduction of the core value
of cores returned for credit as well as other customary industry  allowances and
trade-ins.  Consequently,  variations in the rate of core trade-ins affect sales
and cash receipts, and, in periods of relatively heavy core trade-ins, sales may
show  smaller  increases  (or greater  decreases)  than unit sales.  Core values
fluctuate  on  the  basis  of  several   economic   factors,   including  market
availability and demand and core prices then being paid by other remanufacturers
and core brokers.

           PRODUCTION PROCESS

           The initial step in the Company's remanufacturing process begins with
the  receipt  in boxed  quantities  of cores  from  various  sources,  including
trade-ins  from  customers  and  purchases  in the open  market.  The  cores are
assessed and evaluated for  inventory  control  purposes and then sorted by part
number.  Each core is then completely  disassembled  into all of its fundamental
components.  The  components  are cleaned in a process that  employs  customized
equipment,  detergents and other chemicals. The cleaning process is accomplished
in accordance with the required specifications of the particular units.

           After the  cleaning  process is  complete,  the  components  are then
inspected and tested as prescribed by the  Company's  rigorous  quality  control
program. This program,  which is implemented throughout the operational process,
is  known as  statistical  process  control.  Upon  passage  of all  tests,  the
components  are placed on an automatic  conveyor for assembly  into the required
units.  The  assembly  process  is  monitored  by  designated   quality  control
personnel.  Each fully assembled unit is then subjected to additional testing to
ensure performance and quality.  Finished products are then either stored in the
Company's warehouse facility or packaged for immediate delivery. In addition, to
maximize efficiency,  the Company stores in its warehousing facilities component
parts ready for

                                                    
                                       -5-

<PAGE>


assembly. The Company's management  information systems,  including hardware and
software,   facilitate  the  remanufacturing  process  from  cores  to  finished
products. In general, this process takes approximately four days.

           The Company currently  conducts  business with an affiliated  entity,
MVR Products Pte Limited  ("MVR"),  which is 70%-owned by Mel and Richard  Marks
and 30%-owned by Vincent Quek, a resident of Singapore,  who is not an affiliate
of the  Company.  MVR  operates  a  shipping  warehouse  and  testing  facility,
maintains  office space and  remanufacturing  capability  in Singapore  and does
business  with Unijoh Sdn,  Bhd  ("Unijoh"),  which is an  affiliated  Malaysian
entity.  Unijoh is  70%-owned  by Mel and Richard  Marks and is 30%-owned by Mr.
Quek. Unijoh conducts  remanufacturing  operations similar to those conducted by
the Company at its remanufacturing  facility. All of the products remanufactured
by  Unijoh  are   processed   for  the  Company  on  an   independent   contract
remanufacturing basis. The Company provides Unijoh with raw materials, which are
included  in  the  Company's   inventory.   Although  Unijoh's   remanufacturing
operations  are  not  part  of  the  Company's   efforts  to  achieve  ISO  9001
certification, these operations are conducted with quality control standards and
other internal controls similar to those currently  implemented at the Company's
remanufacturing   facility.  The  facilities  of  MVR  and  Unijoh  are  located
approximately  one hour drive apart. As of March 31, 1996, the inventory located
at MVR's and Unijoh's  facilities  represented  approximately 3.2% of all of the
Company's  inventory.  The  Company  believes  that  its  relationship  with its
operating  affiliates is important  because of the lower labor costs experienced
by these affiliates in the same remanufacturing process.

           PRODUCT TRADE-INS

           The Company has a trade-in policy that it believes is typical for the
remanufactured  automotive  replacement parts industry. A manufacturer typically
provides  a  product  warranty  that is  honored  whether  or not the  purchaser
continues to do business with the  manufacturer.  As the Company believes is the
practice in its industry, however, the Company accepts product trade-ins only if
the purchaser  makes future  purchases  from the Company within a specified time
period.  Product  trade-ins to the Company result only in credits against future
purchases.  If a customer  ceases doing  business with the Company,  the Company
recognizes  no further  obligations  to that  customer  with  respect to product
trade-ins  and no additional  product  returns would be accepted by the Company.
The  customer  would  return any  returnable  products  to a new  remanufacturer
maintaining  the same  policy,  which  remanufacturer  would  accept the product
trade-ins  and grant  appropriate  credits  regardless of whether the units were
originally purchased from that new remanufacturer.

           As a result of the product trade-in policy in the Company's industry,
the Company  accounts for product  trade-ins on a current  basis.  No reserve is
made for future  product  trade-ins  since  there is no on-going  obligation  to
accept  such  trade-ins  in the  absence of  continuing  sales to the  returning
customer. The Company believes that its return rate has been consistent with the
return rates generally experienced in its industry. In addition,  the obligation
to accept  trade-ins is only  recognized as a credit against future sales in the
form of a reduction in the purchase price for those sales. The Company's product
trade-in policy encompasses all product trade-ins, including cores,

                                                    
                                       -6-

<PAGE>


true  warranty  trade-ins,  alleged  warranty  trade-ins  and any other  product
adjustments.  The amount of the credit given in connection  with a returned unit
is equal to the sum of the unit price and the core price.

COMPETITION

           The  Company's  segment  of  the  automotive  after-market  industry,
composed of  remanufacturers  and  rebuilders  of  alternators  and starters for
imported cars and light trucks, is highly competitive. The Company's competitors
include  several  other  relatively  large sources of  remanufactured  units and
numerous smaller, regional rebuilders. Certain of the Company's competitors sell
a wide variety of other  automotive  parts,  thereby  establishing  broader name
recognition  in the entire  automotive  after-market,  including  the  Company's
market.  In addition,  certain of the  Company's  competitors  are  divisions or
subsidiaries   of  entities  also  engaged  in  other   businesses   which  have
substantially greater financial resources than those of the Company. The Company
also   competes   with  several   large   regional   remanufacturers   and  with
remanufacturers which are franchised by certain original equipment manufacturers
to  remanufacture  their  products for regional  distribution.  Alternators  and
starters  produced by  regional  and other small  rebuilders  typically  are not
processed and finished to the same extent as, and do not compete  directly with,
the Company's products. The Company also competes with numerous rebuilders which
serve  comparatively  local areas.

           The  Company's  products  have not been patented nor does the Company
believe that its products are  patentable.  The Company will continue to attempt
to protect its proprietary  processes and other  information by relying on trade
secret laws and  non-disclosure and  confidentiality  agreements with certain of
its employees and other persons who have access to its proprietary processes and
other information.

GOVERNMENTAL REGULATION

           The Company's operations are subject to federal, state and local laws
and regulations  governing,  among other things,  emissions to air, discharge to
waters and the  generation,  handling,  storage,  transportation,  treatment and
disposal  of waste and other  materials.  The Company is not subject to any such
laws and regulations which are specific to the automotive after-market industry.
The Company believes that its business,  operations and facilities have been and
are being  operated in  compliance  in all  material  respects  with  applicable
environmental and health and safety laws and regulations,  many of which provide
for substantial  fines and criminal  sanctions for violations.  The operation of
automotive parts remanufacturing plants, however,  entails risks in these areas,
and there can be no assurance  that the Company will not incur material costs or
liabilities. In addition, potentially significant expenditures could be required
in order to comply  with  evolving  environmental  and health  and safety  laws,
regulations or  requirements  that may be adopted or imposed in the future.  The
Company believes, although there can be no assurance, that the overall impact of
compliance with regulations and legislation  protecting the environment will not
have  a  material  effect  on  its  future  financial  position  or  results  of
operations.

EMPLOYEES

            The  Company  has  approximately  540 full time  employees.  Of  the
Company's employees,  18 are considered  administrative  personnel and three are
sales  personnel.  None of the Company's  employees is a party to any collective
bargaining  agreement.  The Company has not  experienced  any work stoppages and
considers its employee relations to be satisfactory.

ITEM 2.    DESCRIPTION OF PROPERTIES.

           The Company maintains facilities in Torrance,  California,  Woodbury,
New York and Nashville,  Tennessee. The Torrance facility contains approximately
125,000 square feet and  accommodates the Company's  corporate  headquarters and
remanufacturing,  warehousing and other office  requirements.  The Company moved
into this facility  during  September 1993. The five-year lease for the facility
provides for a monthly  rental of $36,900 and  terminates  on December 31, 1998.
This facility was designed and equipped according to specifications generated by
the Company in order to accommodate the Company's  current and projected  needs.
The  facility  is   anticipated  to  be  sufficient  to  satisfy  the  Company's
foreseeable production requirements.  In order to permit increased production at
its remanufacturing  facility,  in October 1995 the Company leased an additional
79,708  square  feet of  warehouse  space  nearby.  The lease for this  facility
provides for a base  monthly  rental of $19,000 and  terminates  on December 31,
1998. The Company also maintains an East Coast  administrative  and sales office
in Woodbury,  New York.  This site contains  approximately  1,500 square feet of
office space. The Company believes that, in the event that the Woodbury lease is
not  renewed,  adequate  alternative  space is  available  in the  same  area at
comparable  rates.  On May 1, 1995,  the  Company  opened a  31,000-square  foot
warehouse  and  distribution  facility in  Nashville,  Tennessee  to service the
Company's  growing East Coast and Southern  market.  The lease for this facility
expires

on October 31, 1998 and  provides for a monthly  rental of $9,331.  In addition,
the Company has minor office facilities at its affiliate's location in Malaysia.

ITEM 3.    LEGAL PROCEEDINGS.

           There are no pending material legal  proceedings to which the Company
or any of its  properties is subject nor, to the  knowledge of the Company,  are
any legal proceedings threatened.

           The declaration of dividends in the future will be at the election of
the Board of Directors and will depend upon the earnings,  capital  requirements
and financial position of the Company,  general economic  conditions,  state law
requirements and other relevant factors.  In addition,  the Company's  agreement
with its bank lender  prohibits  payment of  dividends  without the bank's prior
consent, except dividends payable in Common Stock.

           In  its   remanufacturing   operations,   the  Company  obtains  used
alternators  and  starters,  commonly  known as "cores,"  from various  sources,
principally  the  Company's  existing  customers,  as  trade-ins.  Net sales are
reduced to reflect deductions for cores returned for credit and other deductions
for  trade-ins and  allowances,  and cost of goods sold is reduced by the credit
given to customers  for the cores  returned.  Such  trade-ins  are recorded when
cores are received  from  customers.  Credits for cores are allowed only against
purchases of similar remanufactured products and are generally used within sixty
days of issuance by the customer.  Due to this trade-in policy, the Company does
not reserve for  trade-ins.  In addition,  since it is unlikely  that a customer
will not utilize its trade-in  credits,  the credit is recorded when the core is
returned as opposed to when the customer  purchases  new  products.  The Company
believes  that this policy is  consistent  throughout  the  remanufacturing  and
rebuilding  industry.  Product  and  core  trade-ins  reducing  net  sales  were
approximately  $28.9  million,  $17.0 million and $13.1 million for fiscal 1996,
1995 and 1994,  respectively.  Core  trade-ins  reducing cost of goods sold were
approximately  $19.4  million,  $11.0  million and $8.4 million for fiscal 1996,
1995 and 1994, respectively.

- ---------------------

           (1) The  Company  believes  it may be  informative  to  indicate  the
effects of presenting  core trade-ins as a purchase of materials as opposed to a
reduction  in  sales   (i.e. present  the  information  in a manner  similar  to
traditional manufacturers) and portray gross profit percentage as the following:

FISCAL 1996 COMPARED TO FISCAL 1995

           Net  sales  for  fiscal  1996  increased  $16,656,000  or 58.9%  from
$28,257,000 to  $44,913,000.  The increase in net sales is attributable to sales
to new customers,  the general  growth of business with existing  customers and,
indirectly,  to, the Company believes, the continued aging of the import vehicle
fleet.   During  fiscal  1996,  the  Company  began  shipping  products  to  two
significant new customers, Delphi Energy & Engine Management Systems, a division
of  General  Motors,  and  Canadian  Tire.  The  number of units  shipped to all
customers  was  approximately  1,074,000  during  fiscal 1996 as  compared  with
approximately   689,000  during  fiscal  1995,   representing   an  increase  of
approximately 55.9%.

           Cost of goods sold over the periods  increased  $11,808,000  or 59.9%
from  $19,712,000 to $31,520,000.  The increases are  attributable to additional
costs  during the recent year in  connection  with  increased  production.  As a
percentage of net sales these expenses  increased to 70.2% for the recent fiscal
year from 69.8% for the prior  fiscal year.  This  relatively  small  percentage
increase is primarily  attributable to increased direct production costs,  which
were  partially  offset by benefits  the  Company  experienced  from  leveraging
indirect  production  costs over  increased  net sales.  In February  1996,  the
Company began  experiencing  pricing pressures on certain of its alternators and
starters,  which may affect gross profit to a limited extent in the future.  The
Company also anticipates  lowering its manufacturing  costs to help offset price
decreases in response to these pricing pressures.

           Selling  expenses over the periods  increased  $486,000 or 32.4% from
$1,498,000  to  $1,984,000.  This  increase  was the  result of an  increase  of
approximately  $433,000 in advertising and other  allowances to customers during
fiscal 1996. The balance of the increase was primarily attributable to increased
salaries of the  Company's  sales force.  Advertising  allowances  accounted for
57.5% of the  Company's  total  selling  expenses for fiscal 1996 as compared to
47.3% for fiscal 1995. Despite these increases, selling expenses as a percentage
of net sales decreased to 4.4% from 5.3% over the periods reflecting  leveraging
of these expenses over increased net sales.

           General  and  administrative  expenses  over  the  periods  increased
$873,000 or 23.6% from  $3,704,000  to  $4,577,000.  Approximately  69.2% of the
increase was due to costs incurred under

the Company's new incentive  bonus plan which was implemented in September 1995.
The  additional  increase  is  primarily  attributable  to  increased  insurance
coverage, computer expenses and professional fees. As a percentage of net sales,
general  and  administrative  expenses  decreased  from  13.1% to 10.2% over the
periods reflecting leveraging of these expenses over increased net sales.

           Interest  expense net of interest  income of $219,000 for fiscal 1996
was  $833,000,  an increase  of 54.3% from  $540,000  in fiscal  1995.  Interest
expense is comprised  principally of interest on the Company's  revolving credit
facility.  The significantly  increased interest expense over the prior year was
due to the Company's increased borrowing under this facility. Interest income is
derived from short-term investments principally from the Company's second public
offering in November 1995.

FISCAL 1995 COMPARED TO FISCAL 1994

           Net  sales  over the  periods  increased  $7,682,000  or  37.3%  from
$20,575,000  to  $28,257,000.  The  increase in net sales is due to the addition
during fiscal 1995 of two automotive  retail chain  customers,  The Pep Boys and
AutoZone,  as well as increased sales to existing  customers.  In addition,  the
segment of the automotive  after-market  to which the Company sells its products
continued to grow during  fiscal 1995.  The Company  believes that this industry
growth reflects the increased number of imported cars in the prime repair age, a
trend that the Company believes will continue for the foreseeable future.  Units
shipped were approximately  456,000 during fiscal 1994 and approximately 689,000
during fiscal 1995, representing an increase of approximately 51.1%.

           Cost of goods sold over the  periods  increased  $6,339,000  or 47.4%
from  $13,373,000 to $19,712,000.  As a percentage of net sales,  these expenses
increased  to 69.8% for the recent  fiscal year from 65.0% for the prior  fiscal
year.  The increase in cost of goods as a percentage of net sales sold primarily
is  attributable  to the  Company's  decision at the beginning of fiscal 1995 to
lower sales prices on most of its products.  Although the Company's decision, in
light of competitive pressures, led to higher cost of goods sold as a percentage
of net sales,  the Company believes that the decision led to additional sales to
existing  accounts and the addition of new  customers.  During fiscal 1995,  the
Company increased its monthly unit production by approximately  25,000 units per
month from 27,000 to 52,000  units.  Direct and indirect  labor costs  increased
56.1% from $2,194,000 in fiscal 1994 to $3,424,000 in fiscal 1995.  Despite this
increase, the Company believes that its direct labor costs per unit decreased in
fiscal 1995 as a result of the increased volume of production. This reduction in
direct  labor  costs per unit  helped to offset  the lower  prices for which the
Company sold its  alternators and starters.  The Company  attributes 1.3% of the
total 4.8%  increase  over the periods in cost of goods sold as a percentage  of
net sales to a change in advertising  arrangements with certain of its customers
in fiscal 1995, which had the effect of lowering net sales in fiscal 1995 with a
concurrent reduction in selling expenses.

           Selling  expenses over the periods  decreased  $619,000 or 29.2% from
$2,117,000 to  $1,498,000.  As a result of the Company's  change in  advertising
arrangements with certain of its customers,  advertising allowances decreased by
approximately $400,000. Advertising allowances

                                                    
                                      -13-

accounted for 47.3% of the Company's  total selling  expenses for fiscal 1995 as
compared with 52.4% for fiscal 1994.  During fiscal 1994,  the Company  incurred
approximately  $90,000 of  expenses in  connection  with the  production  of its
bi-annual product catalog. The remainder of selling expenses in both periods was
commissions  to outside sales agents,  as well as salaries and related  expenses
for the Company's sales personnel.

           General  and  administrative  expenses  over  the  periods  increased
$1,111,000 or 42.8% from  $2,593,000 to  $3,704,000.  In response to present and
anticipated  future  growth and the  Company's  new public  status,  the Company
incurred  increased  salary expense as a result of hiring a new Chief  Financial
Officer and various other  administrative  personnel.  In addition,  general and
administrative  expenses  increased  as a  result  of  the  depreciation  of new
administrative  computer  equipment  added during  fiscal 1995,  directors'  and
officers' insurance premiums and professional fees incurred commencing in fiscal
1995 relating to the Company's public status, as well as other expenses incurred
in connection with present and anticipated  future growth.  The remainder of the
Company's general and administrative  expenses remained  relatively  constant in
total dollar amount from fiscal 1994 to fiscal 1995.

           Interest  expense (net of interest income of $73,000 for fiscal 1995)
increased  19.2% or $87,000  over the  periods.  Interest  expense is  comprised
principally of interest on the Company's  revolving  credit  facility.  Interest
expense increased as a result of both higher interest rates as well as increased
borrowings under the credit facility. Over the periods, the Company's borrowings
increased  from $4.3 million to $9.0  million and the  effective  interest  rate
increased  from 6.5% to 9.0%,  which  resulted from general  increases in market
interest  rates.  The other  component of interest  expense is interest  paid on
capital leases, which was $65,000 in fiscal 1995 and $39,000 in fiscal 1994.

           During fiscal 1995,  the provision for income taxes was $1,197,000 as
compared with  $728,000,  on a pro forma basis,  during fiscal 1994. The Company
elected, effective January 1, 1994, to change its status from an "S" corporation
to a "C" corporation.

           During fiscal 1994, the Company  incurred a  non-recurring  charge of
approximately  $256,000  consisting  primarily of the  abandonment  of leasehold
improvements  and moving  expenses  in  connection  with the  relocation  of its
remanufacturing and warehouse operations.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

           The Company's  operations have been financed principally from the net
proceeds  of the  Company's  initial  public  offering  in March  1994,  the net
proceeds of the Company's  second public  offering in November 1995,  borrowings
under a revolving  credit facility and cash flows from  operations.  As of March
31, 1996 the Company's working capital was $44,254,000,  including $8,500,000 of
cash and cash equivalents.

           Net cash used in operating  activities  during fiscal 1996 and fiscal
1995 was $15,344,000 and $6,721,000,  respectively.  The increase in fiscal 1996
was due primarily to an increase in inventory of  $16,434,000.  This increase is
due in large part to the  Company's  increased  sales  volume,  anticipation  of
future growth,  as well as additional  SKUs offered by the Company.  As of March
31, 1996, the current portion of capitalized lease obligations was $554,000.

           Net cash used in investing activities during fiscal 1996 and 1995 was
$10,770,000 and $991,000, respectively.  During fiscal 1996 the Company invested
an additional  $10,113,000 in short-term  investments and purchased  $657,000 of
property,  plant and  equipment.  During fiscal 1995,  the Company  purchased an
additional  $616,000 in short-term  investments and $375,000 of property,  plant
and  equipment.  In fiscal 1996 the short-term  investments  were purchased with
proceeds from the Company's 1996 public offering.

           Net cash provided by financing  activities was  $25,667,000 in fiscal
1996 and  $4,525,000  in fiscal 1995.  The increase in fiscal 1996 was primarily
attributable  to the proceeds  from the second  public  offering  and, to a much
lesser  extent,  the exercise of warrants and options.  Proceeds from the second
public offering and the exercise of options and warrants totaled  $20,369,000 in
fiscal 1996. The balance of cash provided by financing activities in fiscal 1996
was from an increase in the Company's  revolving line of credit. The increase in
fiscal 1995 was due primarily to an increase in the Company's  revolving line of
credit.

           In September  1995,  the Company  amended its credit  agreement  with
Wells  Fargo Bank,  National  Association  (the  "Bank").  The credit  agreement
provides for a revolving  credit facility in an aggregate  principal  amount not
exceeding   $15,000,000,   which  credit  facility  is  secured  by  a  lien  on
substantially  all of the  assets of the  Company.  The credit  facility,  which
expires on June 1, 1997,  provides  for an interest  rate on  borrowings  at the
lower of the  Bank's  prime rate and LIBOR  plus  1.75%.  Under the terms of the
credit  facility and included in the maximum  amount  thereunder,  the Bank will
issue letters of credit and banker's  acceptances for the account of the Company
in an  aggregate  amount  not  exceeding  $2,500,000.  At  June  19,  1996,  the
outstanding balance on the credit facility was approximately $12,300,000.

           The  Company's   accounts   receivable  as  of  March  31,  1996  was
$17,264,000.  This  represents  an increase of $6,589,000 or 61.7% over accounts
receivable  on March 31, 1995.  This is in line with sales  increasing in fiscal
1996 by 58.9% over  fiscal  1995.  During the year,  the Company  increased  its
normal aging of its receivables with some of its customers.  In addition,  there
are times when the Company extends payment terms with certain customers in order
to help them  finance an increase in their  product  line  variety.  The Company
insures  collection of certain of its accounts  receivable  through an insurance
policy with an  independent  credit  insurance  company at an annual  premium of
approximately  $70,000.  The Company's policy generally has been to issue credit
to new customers  only after the customers have been included under the coverage
of its accounts receivable insurance policy.

           The Company's  inventory as of March 31, 1996 was $28,551,000,  which
represents an increase of  $16,434,000  or 135.6% over inventory as of March 31,
1995. The increase  reflects the Company's  growth in sales through the addition
in fiscal  1996 of  Delphi  and other new  customers,  increased  business  from
existing customers and the need to have sufficient  inventory to support shorter
lead times for deliveries to customers.  Also, the Company continues to increase
the number of SKUs sold  requiring  the Company to carry raw  materials for this
wider variety of parts.  The Company also increased its finished goods inventory
(by  approximately  $1,400,000  as of March  31,  1996) in  connection  with the
opening of its Nashville warehouse facility in November 1995.

                         REPORT OF INDEPENDENT AUDITORS

Board of Directors and Shareholders
Motorcar Parts & Accessories, Inc.
Torrance, California

           We have audited the  accompanying  balance sheets of Motorcar Parts &
Accessories,  Inc.  as at March  31,  1996 and March  31,  1995 and the  related
statements of  operations,  changes in  shareholders'  equity and cash flows for
each of the three years in the period  ended  March 31,  1996.  These  financial
statements   are  the   responsibility   of  the   Company's   management.   Our
responsibility  is to express an opinion on these financial  statements based on
our audits.

           We  conducted  our  audits  in  accordance  with  generally  accepted
auditing  standards.  Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit
to obtain reasonable  assurance about whether the financial  statements are free
of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence
supporting  the amounts and  disclosures in the financial  statements.  An audit
also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates
made by  management,  as well as  evaluating  the  overall  financial  statement
presentation.  We believe  that our audits  provide a  reasonable  basis for our
opinion.

           In our opinion,  the financial  statements  enumerated  above present
fairly,  in all material  respects,  the financial  position of Motorcar Parts &
Accessories,  Inc.  at March 31,  1996 and March 31, 1995 and the results of its
operations,  and its cash flows for each of the three years in the period  ended
March 31, 1996, in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.

(NOTE A) - THE COMPANY AND ITS SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES:
- ---------------------------------------------------------------

           Motorcar Parts & Accessories,  Inc. (the  "Company"),  remanufactures
and distributes  alternators  and starters and assembles and  distributes  spark
plug wire sets for the automotive  after-market industry (replacement parts sold
for use on vehicles  after  initial  purchase).  The Company's  alternators  and
starters are produced  principally for use in imported cars. The spark plug wire
sets are produced for use in imported as well as domestic cars. These automotive
parts are sold to automotive retail chains and warehouse distributors throughout
the United States.

           [1]  CASH EQUIVALENTS:
                -----------------

           The Company considers all highly liquid short-term investments with a
maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents.

           [2]  INVESTMENTS:
                ------------

           The Company's  marketable  securities are classified as available for
sale  and  reported  at  fair  value  which  approximates  amortized  cost.  Any
unrealized   gains  or  losses  are  classified  as  a  separate   component  of
shareholders' equity.

           [3]  ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE - ALLOWANCE:
                --------------------------------

           The Company protects itself from losses due to uncollectible accounts
receivable  through the purchase of credit  insurance except for receivables due
from a limited number of accounts due from leading  automotive  parts retailers,
which exceed the  insurance  coverage and certain small  balances.  Beginning in
fiscal year 1996 an allowance for estimated uncollectible accounts receivable is
provided.

           [4]  INVENTORY:
                ----------

           Inventory  is  stated  at the  lower of cost or  market,  cost  being
determined by the average cost method.

           [5]  INCOME TAXES:
                -------------

           Prior to the  Company's  initial  public  offering,  the  Company had
elected to be treated as an S  corporation  pursuant  to Section  1362(a) of the
Internal Revenue Code for federal and state income tax purposes.  As a result of
this  election,  the income of the Company was generally  taxed  directly to the
individual  shareholders,  and,  when  withdrawn,  could be done so without  any
further tax consequences.  Except for certain states which require a minimum tax
payment for S corporations, the historical financial statements do not include a
provision for income taxes for the period prior to the

termination  of the S election  on January 1, 1994.  A pro forma  provision  for
income taxes has been  reflected  which  represents  taxes which would have been
provided had the business  operated as a C corporation for the entire year ended
March 31, 1994 (Note K).

           Effective  on  January  1,  1994,  provisions  for  taxes  have  been
calculated as a C  corporation.  The Company has adopted  Statement of Financial
Accounting  Standards No. 109 ("SFAS 109"),  "Accounting for Income Taxes" which
requires the use of the  liability  method of accounting  for income taxes.  The
liability method measures  deferred income taxes by applying  enacted  statutory
rates in effect at the  balance  sheet date to the  differences  between the tax
bases of assets and  liabilities  and their  reported  amounts in the  financial
statements.  The resulting  asset or liability is adjusted to reflect changes in
the tax laws as they occur.

           Upon termination of the S corporation election, the retained earnings
balance as of the date of termination, approximately $1,518,000, was transferred
to additional paid-in capital.

           [6]  DEPRECIATION AND AMORTIZATION:
                ------------------------------

           Property and equipment are  depreciated on the  straight-line  method
over their estimated useful lives.  Leasehold  improvements are amortized by the
straight-line method over the shorter of their estimated useful life or the term
of the lease.

           [7]  REVENUE RECOGNITION:
                --------------------

           The Company  recognizes sales when products are shipped.  The Company
obtains used alternator and starter units, commonly known as cores,  principally
from its  customers  as  trade-ins.  Cores are an  essential  material  need for
remanufacturing  operations.  Net sales are  reduced to reflect  deductions  for
cores returned for credit and other deductions for trade-ins and allowances, and
cost of goods sold is reduced by the cost of the cores returned.  Such trade-ins
are recorded upon receipt of cores from customers. Credits for cores and

product trade-ins are allowed only against  purchases of similar  remanufactured
products and are generally used within sixty days of issuance by the customer.

           [7]  REVENUE RECOGNITION:  (continued)
                --------------------             

Due to  this  existing  trade-in  policy,  the  Company  does  not  reserve  for
trade-ins. In addition,  since it is remote that a customer will not utilize its
trade-in credits, the credit is recorded when the core is returned as opposed to
when the customer purchases new products.  This policy is consistent  throughout
the remanufacturing and rebuilding industry.

           The effect of this policy is as follows:

                                         March 31,

           [9]  USE OF ESTIMATES:
                -----------------

           The preparation of financial  statements in conformity with generally
accepted  accounting  principles  requires  management  to  make  estimates  and
assumptions  that  affect the  reported  amounts of assets and  liabilities  and
disclosure of  contingent  assets and  liabilities  at the date of the financial
statements  and the  reported  amounts  of  revenues  and  expenses  during  the
reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

    [10]  CHANGE IN ACCOUNTING PRINCIPLE AND RECENTLY ISSUED
          --------------------------------------------------
             ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS:
             --------------------------

           In 1995, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of
Financial  Accounting  Standards  No. 121,  "Accounting  for the  Impairment  of
Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to be Disposed of" ("SFAS 121"), and
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123, "Accounting for Stock-Based
Compensation" ("SFAS 123"). SFAS 121 requires, among other things, that entities
identify  events or changes in  circumstances  which  indicate that the carrying
amount  of an asset  may not be  recoverable.  SFAS 123  requires,  among  other
things,  that  companies  establish a fair value based method of  accounting  or
disclosure  for  stock-based  compensation  plans.  The  Company  believes  that
adoption  of SFAS  121 and SFAS 123  will  not  have a  material  impact  on its
financial  statements.  The Company  expects to continue to account for employee
stock based compensation in accordance with Accounting  Principles Board Opinion
No. 25, "Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees",  using intrinsic values with
appropriate  disclosures using the fair value based method.  The Company has not
elected to adopt SFAS 123 early.

    [11]  FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS:
          ----------------------

           The  carrying  amounts  of  accounts  receivable,  accounts  payable,
accrued  expenses,  capitalized lease obligations and long-term debt approximate
their fair value.

           Estimated fair value of these  financial  instruments,  some of which
are for short durations, have been determined using available

judgment is required to interpret the market data used to develop the estimates.
The use of different market  assumptions and/or different  valuation  techniques

estimates of fair value  presented  herein may not be  indicative of the amounts

           In December 1993, the shareholders  approved a Stock Option Plan (the
"Plan") which  provides for the granting of options to purchase  450,000  common
shares to employees  and  directors.  Options  granted may be either  "incentive
stock options"  within the meaning of Section 422A of the Internal  Revenue Code
or  nonqualified  options.  The Plan is  administered by the Board of Directors,
which determines the terms of options  exercised,  including the exercise price,
the  number of shares  subject to the  option  and the terms and  conditions  of
exercise.

           In August of 1995, the shareholders  approved a Nonemployee  Director
Stock Option Plan which provides for the granting of options to purchase  15,000
common shares to directors. The Plan is administered by the Board of Directors.
