NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
1. GENERAL
The consolidated financial statements of Educational Insights, Inc. (the
"Company") include all of the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned
subsidiary. All significant inter-company balances and transactions have been
eliminated in consolidation.
The interim consolidated financial statements are not audited, but include
all adjustments (including normal recurring adjustments) which are, in the
opinion of management, necessary for a fair representation of the financial
position, results of operations and cash flows for the period.
The consolidated financial statements as presented herein should be read in
conjunction with the Company's audited consolidated financial statements and
notes thereto as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission and included
in the Company's Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 1999. The Company's
fiscal year ends December 31. The results of operations for the period ended
March 31, 2000, are not indicative of the results that might be expected for the
full fiscal year.
Certain reclassifications have been made to the 1999 amounts to conform with
the current year's presentation.
2. INVENTORY
Inventory consists principally of finished goods held for sale and are
stated at the lower of cost or market. Cost is determined using the first-in,
first-out method.

PART I--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 unaudited
consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes, included in
Part I--Item 1 of this Quarterly Report, and the audited consolidated financial
statements and accompanying notes and Management's Discussion and Analysis of
Financial Condition and Results of Operations for the year ended December 31,
1999 included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K.
Consolidated sales were $5,575,000 for the first quarter ended March 31,
2000, a decrease of 27.0%, or $2,064,000, compared to the same period in 1999.
Net loss was $1,400,000 or $0.20 per share compared with a net loss of $521,000
or $0.07 per share for the same period in 1999. The Company's business is highly
seasonal. Typically, sales and operating income are highest during the third and
fourth quarters and lowest during the first and second quarters. This seasonal
pattern is primarily due to the increased demand for the Company's products
during the "Back-to-school" and year-end holiday selling seasons. The Company
typically experiences losses during the first quarter.
SALES
Sales decreased by 27.0%, or $2,064,000, to $5,575,000 in the quarter ended
March 31, 2000 from $7,639,000 in the quarter ended March 31, 1999. Sales
decreases occurred in each of the Company's primary markets. The decrease in the
Company's core school market was primarily a reflection of the general weakness
in the school supply dealer channel, as well as a carryover in the weakness of
product reorders that the Company experienced in the fourth quarter of 1999. The
decreases in the specialty retail and mass markets were primarily due to delays
in purchases by certain customers. The Company expects lower sales volume during
the first six months of 2000 than in the same period in 1999, but does not
believe that this is indicative of the expected sales volume for the remainder
of the year as many new and/or repackaged products are scheduled for
introduction in the latter half of 2000.
GROSS PROFIT
Gross profit margin as a percentage of sales decreased to 46.3% for the
quarter ended March 31, 2000 from 47.4% for the same period in 1999. This
decrease is primarily due to a higher percentage of sales of low margin
discontinued items in 2000 than in 1999.
SALES AND MARKETING EXPENSE
Sales and marketing expense increased $347,000 to $1,879,000 for the quarter
ended March 31, 2000 from $1,532,000 for the same period in 1999. When expressed
as a percentage of sales, sales and marketing expense increased to 33.7% as
compared to 20.0% for the same period in 1999. The increase in absolute dollars
is primarily due to marketing expenses relating to the Company's specialty
retail division which was newly branded in 2000 under the name Kidology. As
such, increased expenditures in 2000 were primarily in advertising/promotions
and trade shows as well as compensation relating to the new Vice President in
charge of this division. While much of the expense has been incurred, the
increase in revenue is not expected until the second half of the year. In
addition, marketing expenditures in the Learning Advantage division are
relatively higher in the areas of direct promotion, catalogs and trade shows as
this division was only in a start-up phase during the first half of 1999. The
Company expects sales and marketing expense to continue to exceed the prior year
amounts during the remainder of 2000.

<PAGE>
WAREHOUSING AND DISTRIBUTION EXPENSE
Warehousing and distribution expense increased $67,000 to $796,000 for the
quarter ended March 31, 2000 from $729,000 for the same period in 1999.
Warehousing and distribution expense, when expressed as a percentage of sales,
increased to 14.3% as compared to 9.5% for the same period in 1999, primarily as
a result of the decreased sales volume in 2000 as compared to 1999. The increase
in absolute dollars is primarily due to higher compensation expense relating to
personnel increases in the Company's purchasing and quality assurance functions.
RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT EXPENSE
Research and development expense increased slightly by $34,000 to $994,000
for the quarter ended March 31, 2000 from $960,000 for the same period in 1999.
When expressed as a percentage of sales, research and development expense
increased to 17.8% from 12.6% primarily as a result of the decreased sales
volume in 2000 as compared to 1999. The Company expects research and development
expense to exceed the prior year amounts during the remainder of 2000 primarily
due to increased development activity for both new and repackaged products.
GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSE
General and administrative expense decreased $35,000 to $977,000 for the
quarter ended March 31, 2000 compared to $1,012,000 for the same period in 1999.
When expressed as a percentage of sales, general and administrative expense
increased to 17.5% from 13.2% in the first quarter of 1999 as a result of the
decreased sales volume in the current quarter.
INTEREST EXPENSE
Interest expense decreased $19,000 to $66,000 from $85,000 for the same
period in 1999 primarily due to decreased borrowings under the Company's line of
credit. This occurred as a result of fiscal 1999 generating an operating profit
as compared to fiscal 1998 when an operating loss was incurred.
OTHER EXPENSE
Other expense, net remained essentially unchanged at $118,000 in 2000 as
compared to $113,000 in 1999.
LIQUIDITY & CAPITAL RESOURCES
In recent years, the Company's working capital needs have been met through
funds generated from operations and from the Company's revolving line of credit.
The Company's principal need for working capital has been to meet peak inventory
and accounts receivable requirements associated with its seasonal sales
patterns. The Company increases inventory levels during the spring and summer
months in anticipation of increasing shipments in the summer and fall. Accounts
receivable have historically increased during the summer and fall because of the
Company's use of extended payment programs wherein sales are made to the
Company's customers for which payment is deferred for one to three months based
on the size of the sales orders. Due to these sales patterns, the largest
customer orders are shipped during the summer and fall, hence increasing
accounts receivable balances during the third and fourth quarters.
During the quarter ended March 31, 2000, the Company's source of funds was
net cash provided by operating activities, primarily from the collection of
outstanding accounts receivable.
The principal uses of cash during the period ended March 31, 2000 were an
increase in prepaid expenses of $749,000 and an increase in inventory of
$1,018,000 as well as repayment of outstanding borrowings under the Company's
revolving line of credit of $100,000. Capital spending of $298,000 during the
quarter was primarily for tooling relating to new products.

<PAGE>
The Company currently has a revolving line of credit with a bank, which is
collateralized by substantially all of the Company's assets. Under the revolving
line of credit agreement, which expires June 30, 2001, the Company may borrow up
to $8 million from January through June and up to $10 million from July through
December. Advances bear interest at one half-percentage point above the bank's
reference rate (9.00% at March 31, 2000). The agreement requires the maintenance
of minimum net income amounts and net worth amounts, and provides for various
restrictions including limitations on capital expenditures and additional
indebtedness. At March 31, 2000, the Company had $2,661,000 of outstanding
borrowings against this line of credit.
The Company believes that borrowings available under the revolving line of
credit, if and when renewed, and anticipated funds from operations will satisfy
the Company's projected working capital and capital expenditure requirements for
at least the next 12 months.
