PART I
ITEM 1. DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS
OVERVIEW
Interiors, Inc., a Delaware corporation ("Interiors" or the
"Company"), is a leading designer, manufacturer and marketer of a broad range
of decorative accessories for the residential, commercial, institutional and
contract markets, including museum-quality traditional and contemporary picture
frames, framed wall mirrors, framed hand-painted oil paintings, framed prints
under glass, portable and installed lighting and lighting fixtures, sculptures
and decorative tabletop accessories. Interiors primarily markets its products
to retailers in the home furnishings industry, including furniture stores, home
furnishings centers, catalog retailers, home improvement centers, department
stores and lighting retailers. The Company believes that it has a unique
competitive advantage in serving a broad range of customers because of the
breadth and depth of its product lines as well as its ability to coordinate
design among several product lines.
Interiors' goal is to become the premier, national single-source
provider of decorative accessories to the home furnishings industry. To achieve
this goal, Interiors has taken a leading position in consolidating the highly
fragmented decorative accessories industry, rapidly establishing its national
presence through the acquisition, integration, and growth of established,
well-regarded manufacturers of decorative accessories. The Company's business
strategy was developed in response to changing demands of large retailers, who
seek to increase "single-sourcing" of inventory purchases in order to reduce
distribution and related expenses, including styling costs associated with
coordinating related products from multiple vendors. Interiors intends to
integrate and optimize the operations of acquired companies by consolidating
into regional operating units with centralized management, which management
believes will lead to better product design and greater efficiency in
manufacturing, shipping and inventory management, resulting in increased sales.
Interiors was originally incorporated in New York in October 1990
under the name A.P.F. Holdings, Inc., which subsequently merged with and into
Interiors, Inc., a Delaware corporation, in March 1994. Historically, Interiors
has had two primary operating divisions: the Custom Framing Division, which,
through its A.P.F. Master Framemakers Division, is engaged in the manufacture
of antique and contemporary picture and mirror frames for museums, art
galleries, designers, collectors and frame retailers; and the Wholesale
Division, which manufacturers and markets a line of high-end traditional and
contemporary mirrors sold through upscale retail furniture and department
stores. Since early 1998, the Company has been rapidly acquiring new operating
divisions and expanding its product lines such that today its business includes
the design, manufacture and distribution of a broad range of decorative
accessories.
INDUSTRY
According to the most recent Universe Study conducted by Home Accents
Today, domestic wholesale sales of home furnishings accessories totaled $19.7
billion in 1995. The two categories most relevant to the Company are wall decor
and portable lamps, which together accounted for 8.2% of total industry sales,
or $1.6 billion, in 1995. Wall decor consists of three segments: framed art,
framed mirrors and miscellaneous wall objects such as metal sculpture. The
Company has strong product lines in each of these categories. Within the wall
decor market, framed art is estimated to account for approximately 70% of sales
at wholesale, framed mirrors to account for approximately 20% of such sales,
and miscellaneous wall objects to account for approximately 10% of such sales.
The market for wall decor has been growing rapidly in recent years. Wholesale
sales of wall decor, which were $357 million in 1993, increased by 40% in 1994
and 40% again in 1995 to $700 million. Home Accents Today's Universe Study
estimated growth for 1996 and 1997 at 20% in each year, resulting in
anticipated total sales in excess of $1 billion in 1997. This represents a
compound annual growth rate of 23% since 1991.
The growth in the decorative accessory industry is being driven in
part by demographic changes. The "baby boomer" generation, which represents the
largest population group in the country, is entering their 40s and 50s, their
peak earnings years. The baby boomers have traded up from starter homes into
their dream homes, and are spending more on home improvements, additions, and
furnishings to make their homes more luxurious. Management believes that
Interiors' products appeal to the tastes and quality expectations of the baby
boomer generation.
The manufacturing sector of the decorative accessory industry is
highly fragmented and is composed predominately of small companies with limited
product lines. Over the last 20 years, the retail distribution channels for
their products has
-4-
<PAGE>
shifted from local independent retailers to large, national and regional
retailers in the mass and specialty markets that strive to attain superior
economics of scale and marketing leverage. The Company believes that the
manufacturing sector of the industry is under pressure to consolidate from
these large retailers. These retailers seek increased "single-sourcing" of
inventory purchases, particularly in product categories that do not account for
a significant percentage of their sales. Single-sourcing allows the retailers
to reduce distribution and related expenses, including styling costs associated
with coordinating related products from multiple vendors. Additionally, these
retailers are placing additional burdens on their suppliers by insisting that
suppliers communicate via electronic data interchange ("EDI"), hold inventory
to ensure quick delivery, and drop-ship inventory to each store in the
retailer's chain and, in many instances, directly to the retailer's customers.
The Company also believes that these retailers give preference to
vendors offering coordinated accessories. Coordinated accessories help satisfy
the consumer's preference for one-stop-shopping, whereby the consumer can
purchase furniture, floor coverings, window treatments and accessories from one
retailer in coordinated styles. Consumers find this approach preferable to
attempting to achieve consistent styling of accessories from several retailers.
Management believes that compliance with the demands of retailers and consumers
is very costly for many small manufacturers of decorative accessories. As a
result, the Company believes that many of these manufacturers are receptive to
being acquired by larger manufacturers such as the Company.
The Company, through the acquisition and consolidation of
manufacturers and distributors of decorative accessories, as well as internal
growth, intends to capitalize on both the fragmented nature of the
manufacturing sector of this industry and changing demands of retailers and
consumers. Management believes that increasing the breadth and depth of its
product offerings will enhance the Company's ability to expand its wholesale
operations as it develops the capability to market "whole room" packages of
decorative accessories to retailers in the mass and specialty markets. In
addition, management believes that the operations of acquired businesses can be
consolidated into regional operating units with centralized management,
eliminating operating and management redundancies which should help Interiors
improve its cash flow and operating margins. There can be no assurance,
however, that Interiors will be able to successfully integrate the operations,
facilities and management of acquired businesses or realize any benefits from
any such acquisitions.
ACQUISITION AND EXPANSION STRATEGY
The Company's strategic objective is to become the premier, national
single-source provider of decorative accessories to the home furnishings
industry. Key elements of the Company's strategy to accomplish this objective
are to (i) continue its role as the leading consolidator of independent
manufacturers of decorative accessories; (ii) integrate the operations of its
operating divisions and capture economies of scale; (iii) expand the Company's
product lines through acquisition and internal growth; and (iv) expand into new
markets.
Continue Consolidation Through Acquisitions. The Company has rapidly
established a national presence and critical customer mass by acquiring several
established, well-regarded companies which design, manufacture and distribute
decorative accessories in selected regions throughout the United States. The
Company intends to continue its consolidation strategy by acquiring additional
manufacturers of decorative accessories in order to deepen and broaden its
market presence and to expand its product offerings. Given the increasing
pressure from large retailers to consolidate, the Company believes that smaller
manufacturers of decorative accessories will continue to be attracted to, and
benefit from, the consolidation opportunity provided by the Company. As part of
its integration strategy, management intends to pursue companies with annual
revenues ranging from $3 million to $15 million, a moderate-to premium-priced
product line, a positive reputation in the marketplace and profitable
operations. The Company has identified several candidates for acquisition that
meet these parameters.
Integrate Operations and Capture Economies of Scale. To support the
growth of its business, the Company has implemented a continuing program
designed to maximize operating efficiencies by reducing manufacturing costs,
increasing inventory turnover and enhancing its management information systems.
As a result of this program, the Company seeks to integrate and optimize the
operations of the companies it acquires by (i) consolidating operations into
regional operating units with centralized management, (ii) providing the
acquired companies with material requirements planning software, which better
determines inventory requirements, (iii) linking ordering systems through EDI,
which permits the computerized receipt of customer orders, billing and exchange
of information with customers, and (iv) providing the acquired companies with
the Company's integrated support services. Management believes that the
centralization of these functions will lead to increased sales, better product
design, and greater efficiency in manufacturing, shipping and inventory
management. The Company also believes that there will be significant
opportunities for cross-marketing the products of its various operating units.
Expand Product Lines. Interiors continuously introduces new products
to complement new trends in interior design and decorating. As the Company
grows, management intends to centralize and coordinate product design
throughout the
-5-
<PAGE>
Company. Management believes that the Company's business consolidation and
integration activities will also enhance the Company's ability to design and
manufacture new products which are coordinated with products from the Company's
other product lines. Interiors also plans to pursue licensing arrangements with
one or more leading designer labels to bolster its product development efforts.
Expand Into New Markets. The Company intends to expand the
distribution of its products into new domestic and international markets.
Initially, the Company intends to focus on those markets in which it already
has achieved some market penetration or for which access is facilitated through
existing distribution channels and relationships. In addition, through its
recently-formed Habitat Solutions division, the Company intends to expand its
business to include merchandising and design for the hospitality, time-share
and model homes industries.

PRODUCTS
The Company manufactures picture frames and framed mirrors, framed
paintings and prints, sculptures and tabletop accessories, and portable and
fixed lighting products. The Company's products, brand names and price
positioning are described below.
Picture Frames and Framed Mirrors. Interiors is a leader in producing
high-end, custom frames for paintings, prints and mirrors. The Company also
restores frames. The Company's frames are primarily reproductions of antique
frames made to look as distressed as genuine frames from that period would look
today. Customers select any combination of elements from the Company's library
of approximately 1,500 elements to generate the frame style best suited for the
picture or mirror and/or their decorating needs. These elements have been
collected over several decades, mostly through the Company's restoration
activities, and primarily represent features from antique frames, many of which
cannot be replicated. The Company's skilled craftspeople hand produce the frame
based on the elements selected by the customer. Frame prices range from $300 to
$52,000, but typically are between $800 and $4,000.
Picture frames and mirror frames are made with the same tools, dies
and molds. Mirror frames differ from picture frames in that mirror frames are
constructed in the traditional design, with a top that is different from the
sides and bottom. In comparison, picture frames have the same design throughout
the four sides of the frame. The Company's mirror prices range from $1,000 to
$8,000. The Company's picture frames and framed mirrors are sold primarily
under the trade name of A.P.F. Master Framemakers.
Framed Paintings and Prints. The Company produces framed hand-painted
oil paintings on artist canvas and framed paper prints. The Company's line of
framed hand-painted oil paintings is available in over 500 designs. These large
canvases come in a variety of subjects including floral, abstracts, landscapes,
seascapes, and figurative subjects. The Company also sells prints, both
proprietary and non-proprietary, that are framed and placed under glass. Frames
and mats for both products are carefully selected to complement current trends
in interior design. Retail prices for the Company's framed paintings and prints
range from $70 to $600. The Company's framed art is sold primarily under the
trade names of Vanguard Studios, Artmaster Studios, Lee Reynolds and Windsor.
Lighting Products. The Company manufactures lamps which are available
in over 350 styles. The Company's portable lamps are manufactured with bases
made of metal, crystal and hand-painted hydrocal, a plaster composition that
can be finished to resemble stone, ceramic or metal. Additionally, the Company
designs and manufactures formed and decorated metal lamps, both portable and
fixed. The Company's lighting products generally are "fashion-forward" and do
not compete with commodity or imported lighting. The Company's lighting
products are sold primarily under the trade names Vanguard Studios, Artmaster
Studios and Troy Lighting.
Sculptures and Tabletop Accessories. Interiors manufactures and
distributes hand-crafted hydrocal sculptures and tabletop accessories. The
Company's products in this category sell for $75 to $200 at retail. The
Company's sculptures and tabletop accessories are sold primarily under the
trade names of Vanguard Studios and Serengeti International.
RAW MATERIALS AND SUPPLIERS
The primary raw materials used by Interiors in manufacturing and
distributing its products are wood, hydrocal, composite resins, paint, glass,
plexiglass, corrugated packaging materials, matboards, gold leaf and metal. The
Company purchases its raw materials from a wide variety of domestic and foreign
suppliers. Interiors has at least two, and often more, suppliers for each item
used in its manufacturing process, and has chosen to limit the majority of its
purchases to those vendors with whom it has developed long-term relationships.
Interiors believes that there are a relatively large number of other suppliers
of raw materials available, which enable Interiors to obtain competitive prices
for its raw materials. Interiors does not anticipate, nor has it experienced,
any difficulty in obtaining any of its raw materials, and is not dependent upon
any one supplier. Interiors generally does not enter into long-term contracts
with its suppliers. Significant increases in the costs of raw materials could
have a negative effect on Interiors' gross margins for its products if
Interiors were unable to build these costs into the prices of its products or
to offset such raw material cost increases through cost reductions.
MANUFACTURING
All of the Company's products are either manufactured directly by the
Company or specifically on its behalf. The Company operates six manufacturing
and distribution facilities in California and New York. Approximately 90% of
the Company's products are manufactured at its production facilities. The
balance of the Company's products are manufactured
-7-
<PAGE>
primarily in Mexico, China, and Europe. The Company's manufacturing and
distribution systems are run by well-trained and experienced production
personnel.
The Company's manufacturing processes vary greatly among product
lines, and include metal fabrication and welding, wood cutting and joining,
finishing processes (including painting, polishing and etching), hydrocal
casting, electrification, silk screening and hand painting. Certain of the
Company's manufacturing processes utilize sophisticated computerized equipment,
including mat cutting, metal cutting and acetate generation, and advanced
primer and paint application systems. The Company emphasizes cost-efficiencies
in the manufacturing process and seeks to improve its manufacturing processes
through capital expenditures in facilities and equipment.
The Company's distribution facilities are located adjacent to its
manufacturing facilities. Interiors is currently investing in sophisticated
computer systems to code and track inventory and to coordinate and monitor
loading and shipment of products to retailers. The Company believes that
coordination of the manufacturing, packaging and distribution functions will
allow for greater quality control and production efficiencies.
SALES AND MARKETING
The Company's primary customers are domestic retailers in the home
furnishings industry, including furniture stores, home furnishings centers,
catalog retailers, home improvement centers, department stores and lighting
retailers. In addition, the Company's custom frame division markets its
products to museums, art galleries, designers, interior decorators and custom
frame retailers. In the fiscal year ended June 30, 1998, the Company sold
products to over 3,000 home furnishings and specialty accounts. The Company's
ten largest customers accounted for approximately 32% of the Company's net
sales for the fiscal year ended June 30, 1998.
Each of the Company's product lines is marketed and sold through a
network of independent manufacturers' representatives, who are often agencies
employing a number of sales personnel. These representatives are paid on a
commission-only basis, which the Company believes makes them highly motivated.
None of the Company's present manufacturers' representatives are exclusive to
the Company, and any representative could terminate its relationship with the
Company at any time for any reason. In addition, manufacturers' representatives
typically represent and distribute other non-competing decorative accessories.
Given the large number of accounts, the Company believes that the use of
independent representatives is an effective and cost-efficient means to
distribute its products. The Company's manufacturer's representatives are
supported by an in-house team of twelve sales and marketing personnel. Each of
the Company's product lines is managed by a National Sales Manager or Vice
President of Sales and Marketing who works exclusively with that product line.
In addition, the Company maintains an in-house support staff consisting of
order entry personnel as well as pre-sale and post-sale customer service
personnel.
To supplement its sales efforts to the home furnishings industry and
specialty account customers, the Company uses a variety of means to advertise
and promote its products, including product brochures, trade shows and
cooperative advertising with some of its accounts. Participation in trade
shows, particularly the semi-annual shows in High Point, North Carolina, is an
important element of Interiors' marketing efforts. In addition, the Company
operates eleven showrooms in five cities around the country.
The Company believes that one of the primary ways it distinguishes
itself from its competitors is through customer service. A critical element of
the Company's customer service is on-time delivery of products to its
customers. Retailers are pursuing a number of strategies to deliver the
highest-quality, lowest-cost products to their customers. A growing trend among
retailers is to purchase on a "just-in-time" basis in order to reduce inventory
costs and increase returns on investment. As retailers shorten their lead times
for orders, manufacturers need to more closely anticipate consumer buying
patterns. The Company supports its retail customers' "just-in-time" inventory
strategies through investments in supporting inventory, improved forecasting
systems, more responsive manufacturing and distribution capabilities and
electronic manufacturing, communications and distribution capabilities.
Customer service also involves customer contact with the Company's top-level
decision makers, which permits early recognition of market trends and timely
response to customer problems.

<PAGE>
COMPETITION
The decorative accessories industry is highly competitive, and
includes a large number of domestic and foreign manufacturers, none of which
dominate the market. A number of the companies which compete directly with the
Company are well established and may have financial and other resources equal
to, or greater than, those of the Company. Interiors believes that it is the
largest manufacturer of premium picture and mirror frames (as well as other
wall decor) in the United States. Interiors maintains a strong competitive
advantage in this market due to its extensive collection of tools, dies, and
molds developed over decades from restoration of genuine antique frames.
Interiors believes that it would be extremely difficult for a competitor to
build a comparable collection of these elements. In addition, Interiors has a
work force of skilled crafts people that would be difficult to replicate.
Interiors also believes that it dominates a niche market for mass production of
hand-painted oil paintings on artist canvasses.
The rapid growth of high-volume retailers, together with changes in
consumer shopping patterns, have contributed to a significant consolidation of
the domestic home furnishings retail industry and the formation of dominant
multi-category retailers. Other trends among retailers are to require
manufacturers to maintain or reduce product prices or deliver products with
shorter lead times, or for the retailers to import generic products directly
from foreign sources. The combination of these market influences creates a
highly competitive environment in which the Company's largest customers
continuously evaluate which product suppliers to use, resulting in pricing
pressures and the need for ongoing improvements in customer service. Management
believes that the competition in the decorative accessories industry is
generally a function of timeliness of delivery, price, quality, reliability,
product design, product availability and customer service. Interiors believes
that it competes favorably with other companies with respect to the foregoing
factors.
INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY RIGHTS
Many of the Company's products and their designs, as well as the
design of many of the tools, dies and molds used in manufacturing certain of
the Company's products, are proprietary to Interiors. In addition, the Company
has sought to establish certain proprietary rights with respect to the marks
under which its products and product categories are marketed, including the
registered trademarks "Interiors," "A.P.F. Master Framemakers," "Vanguard
Studios," "Lee Reynolds," and "Artmaster Studios" and the tradenames "Serengeti
International," "Windsor," "Troy-Lite," "Dolbi Cashier" and "Renaissance."
Consequently, the business of the Company is dependent, to a certain extent, on
the Company's ability to establish and protect its intellectual property rights
with respect to its products, designs, trademarks and tradenames under which it
does business.
The Company believes that it owns or has the right to use all designs
and proprietary technology necessary to manufacture and market its existing and
planned products. Designs with respect to its products are generally created by
employees and artists on a work-for-hire basis (i.e., the design automatically
becomes the property of the Company upon creation) or purchased or licensed
from independent designers on a consulting or royalty basis. The Company has no
knowledge that it is infringing on any existing copyright, trademark or patent
such that it would be liable for material damages or be prevented from
manufacturing or marketing its products. In the event the Company's right to
market any of its products were to be successfully challenged, the Company may
be required to discontinue certain products and the Company's business and
prospects may be adversely affected if acceptable alternative products were not
available.
REGULATORY MATTERS
Interiors is subject to a wide range of federal, state and local laws
and regulations relating to protection of the environment, worker health and
safety and the emission, discharge, storage, treatment and disposal of
hazardous materials. These laws include the Clean Air Act of 1970, as amended,
the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act, the Federal Water Pollution Control
Act and the Comprehensive Environmental, Response, Compensation and Liability
Act. Certain of the Company's operations use materials containing chemicals
that are considered hazardous under various environmental laws. Accordingly,
management closely monitors the Company's environmental performance at all of
its manufacturing facilities. Management believes that the Company is in
substantial compliance with all environmental laws. While the Company may be
required to make capital investments at some of its facilities to ensure
compliance, Interiors believes that it will continue to meet all applicable
requirements in a timely fashion and that any investment required to meet these
requirements will not materially affect its financial condition or results of
operations. However, legal and regulatory requirements in these areas have been
increasing, and there can be no assurance that significant costs and
liabilities will not be incurred in the future due to regulatory noncompliance.

In March 1998 and April 1998, the Company issued convertible notes
(the "Notes") in the aggregate principal amount of $3,175,000, and 15,000 Class

requirements of Rule 506 of Regulation D promulgated under the Securities Act.
On June 9, 1998, the Company filed a registration statement on Form S-3 with
the Securities and Exchange Commission in order to register the Class A Shares
underlying the Notes and the warrants issued in connection therewith.
-15-
<PAGE>
The registration statement was subsequently declared effective by the
Securities and Exchange Commission. The proceeds received by the Company
Pursuant to this private placement were applied toward the working capital of
the Company and were used, in part, for the acquisitions of Henlor and MSI.
Of the Notes, notes in the principal amount of $1,700,000 (the
"6% Notes") accrue interest at a rate of 6% per annum, with interest payable
quarterly beginning July 1, 1998; any default in payment of interest triggers a
default interest rate of 16% per annum. The maturity date of the 6% Notes is
March 19, 2000. $ 1,000,000 of the Notes are three-year convertible
subordinated notes secured by the stock of Vanguard, the successor of Henlor,
with an interest rate of 15%. These notes are convertible at the election of
the holders into Class A Shares at a rate of $1.50 per share. The remaining
$475,000 of the Notes are three-year unsecured subordinated debentures with an
interest rate of 15%. These debentures are convertible at the holders' election
into Class A Shares at a rate of $1.75 per share. Attached to certain of the
Notes are warrants to purchase an aggregate of 320,833 Class A Shares with
expiration dates identical to the maturity dates of the Notes to which they are
attached. These exercise prices range from $1.75 to $2.00 per note warrant.
The 6% Notes are convertible into Class A Shares according to the
following terms: one-half of the principal amount of the 6% Notes are
convertible at the election of the noteholders from and after 180 days after
the date of issuance and at any time prior to full repayment of the principal
amount of the 6% Notes; the entire principal amount of the 6% Notes is
convertible at the election of the noteholders from and after 270 days after
the date of issuance and at any time prior to full repayment of the principal
amount of the 6% Notes. The conversion price for the 6% Notes is the lower of
(i) the closing bid price for the Class A Shares on NASDAQ, (ii) if the
conversion date is less than 270 days after the date of issuance, 80% of the
average closing bid price for Class A Shares on NASDAQ for the 5 trading days
immediately preceding (but not including) the conversion date, or (iii) if the
conversion date is more than 270 days after the date of issuance, 75% of the
average closing bid price for Class A Shares on NASDAQ for the 5 trading days
immediately preceding (but not including) the conversion date. The conversion
price is adjustable in the event of a merger, sale of assets, reclassification
of the Class A Shares, stock splits, and additional share issuances at less
than the conversion price.
On July 31,1998, the Company issued 44,431 Class A Shares and options
to purchase 300,000 Class A Shares to James J. McCorry (collectively,
the'"McCorry Shares") in consideration of Mr. McCorry joining the Company as
President of the Habitat Solutions division of the Company and for the
performance of certain services on behalf of the Company. The exercise price of
the options is equal to the closing price of the Class A Shares on July 31,
1998. The issuance of the McCorry Shares was exempt from registration under
Section 4(2) of the Securities Act, as a transaction by the issuer not
involving any public offering. On September 10, 1998, the Company filed a
registration statement on Form S-3 with the Securities and Exchange Commission
in order to, among other things, register the McCorry Shares.
In July and August 1998, the Company issued convertible debentures
(the "Convertible Debentures") in the aggregate principal amount of $3,000,000,
and warrants to purchase an aggregate of 1,451,786 Class A Shares in a private
placement to three accredited investors. The issuance was exempt from
registration under Section 4(2) of the Securities Act, as a transaction by the
issuer not involving any public offering. All proceeds received by the Company
pursuant to this private placement were applied toward the working capital of
the Company. On September 10, 1998, the Company filed a registration statement
on Form S-3 with the Securities and Exchange Commission in order to, among
other things, register the Class A Shares underlying the Convertible Debentures
and related warrants.
-16-
<PAGE>
The Convertible Debentures bear interest at the rate of 7% per annum,
payable quarterly beginning October 1, 1998, and mature in July and August,
2001, three years after their respective issuance dates. Any or all portion of
the Convertible Debentures may be converted to Class A Shares any time after
240 days from their respective dates of issuance. Upon conversion, the holders
of the Convertible Debentures will receive Class A Shares equal to the sum
found by dividing the principal amount being converted, plus any accrued and
unpaid interest on that amount, by the lesser of (i) 80% of the average closing
bid during the three day trading period immediately preceding the conversion or
(ii) $2.10. The Convertible Debentures must be converted at their respective
dates of maturity if: (i) the Class A Shares are listed on the OTC Bulletin
Board or NASDAQ, (ii) the bid price of the Class A Shares is greater than $1.00
for the ten trading days immediately preceding the maturity date, (iii)
there has not been any suspension in the trading of the Class A Shares on the
OTC Bulletin Board or NASDAQ during the thirty trading days immediately
preceding the maturity date, and (iv) the Company has been in full compliance
with the terms and conditions of the Convertible Debenture agreement. If these
conditions are not satisfied, the Company is required to pay the holders of the
Convertible Debentures a sum of cash equal to the market value of the Class A
Shares which such holders would have received if the Convertible Debentures had
been converted.
-17-
<PAGE>
In conjunction with the issuance of the Convertible Debentures, the
Company issued Common Stock Purchase Warrants ("B Warrants") to a finder. The B
Warrants expire five years from their respective dates of issue and allow the
holder to purchase 112,500 Class A Shares in the aggregate at an exercise price
of $2.10 per Class A Share. If 50% or more of the voting power of the Company
is disposed of in an exchange other than an exchange solely for cash the B
Warrants may be used to purchase whatever assets or securities that the holder
of the B Warrants would have been able to acquire had the B Warrants been
previously used to purchase Class A Shares.
On August 14, 1998, the Company consummated the transactions
contemplated by that certain Agreement and Plan of Merger dated July 2, 1998 by
and among the Company, Troy Lighting, Inc. ("Troy") and others, pursuant to
which a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company merged with and into Troy, with

the Company. The merger consideration paid by the Company consisted of a cash
payment of $250,000 and the issuance of 650,000 Class A Shares (the "Troy
Merger Shares") to the former shareholders of Troy. The Troy Merger Shares
remain subject to adjustment, based upon the fair market value of the Troy
Merger Shares on July 2, 1999. In addition, the Company agreed to cause Troy to
repay S 1,700,000 in indebtedness to certain shareholders of Troy. The
issuance of the Troy Merger Shares was exempt from registration under Section
4(2) of the Securities Act, as a transaction by the issuer not involving any
public offering. On September 10, 1998, the Company filed a registration
statement on Form S-3 with the Securities and Exchange Commission in order to,
among other things, register the Troy Merger Shares.
No underwriters were engaged by the Company in connection with any of
the issuances described above and, accordingly, no underwriting discounts or
commissions were paid.
ITEM 6. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OR PLAN OF OPERATION
The following is a discussion of the financial condition and results
of operations of the Company for the years ended June 30, 1997 and 1998.
It should be read in conjunction with the Selected Financial and Operating Data
and the Company's Financial Statements, the related notes thereto, and the
other financial and operating information included elsewhere in this Report.
Certain statements contained or incorporated by reference in this Report
constitute "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of the Private
Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Such forward-looking statements
involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors which may
cause actual results, performance or achievements of the Company, or industry
results, to be materially different from any future results, performance or
achievements expressed or implied by forward-looking statements. The Company
undertakes no obligation to release publicly the results of any revisions to
these forward-looking statements to reflect events or circumstances arising
after the date hereof.
YEAR ENDED JUNE 30, 1998 COMPARED TO YEAR ENDED JUNE 30, 1997
Net Sales. The Company's net sales from operations for the fiscal year
ended June 30, 1998, increased by $8,795,000, or 189.1%, to $13,447,000 from
$4,652,000 for the fiscal year ended June 30, 1997. Sales increased by
$6,130,000 as a result of the Company's acquisitions of Henlor and MSI during
March 1998. Net sales for the A.P.F. Master Framemakers division increased
$2,665,000 for the year ended June 30, 1998, due to increased sales to a major
wholesale customer.
Cost of Goods Sold. The Company's cost of goods sold as a percentage of
net sales was 61% for the year ended June 30, 1998, and 66% for the year ended
June 30, 1997. The cost of sales for the A.P.F. Master Framemakers division
declined from approximately 66% as of June 30, 1997 to 59% as of June 30, 1998.
The cost of goods sold improved at the A.P.F. Master Framemakers division as a
result of increased sales to a major wholesale customer and increases in
factory productivity. The Company's cost of goods sold was further improved due
to the acquisitions of Henlor and MSI. As a result of the acquisitions, the
Company recorded rapid sales growth in the fourth Quarter of fiscal 1998.
During this period, the Company achieved savings in the cost of raw materials
and direct labor as a percentage of sales as a result of manufacturing
synergies resulting from the consolidation of manufacturing facilities of these
two subsidiaries.
-18-
<PAGE>
Selling, General and Administrative Expenses. The Company's selling,
general and administrative expenses as a percentage of net sales totaled 30.4%
for the year ended June 30, 1998, versus 55.2% for the year ended June 30,
1997. The reduction in the ratio of selling, general, and administrative
expenses as a percentage of net sales for the year ended June 30, 1998 versus
the prior period resulted primarily the increase in sales, the containment of
the growth of administrative personnel which led to reduced salaries, benefits
and travel expenses as a percentage of sales. Futhermore, discretionary
spending for such items as stationery and supplies, advertising, and consulting
fees were curtailed. These cost containments were achieved during the same
periods that sales grew rapidly as a result of the above acquisition.
Interest Expense. Interest expense as a percentage of net sales
totaled approximately 4.1% for the year ended June 30, 1998, versus
approximately 8.7% for the year ended June 30, 1997. Interest expense was
approximately $152,000 higher in the year ended June 30, 1998 versus the year
ended June 30, 1997, due largely to new debt to finance acquisitions.
Other Income. Consulting and Management Fee income decreased $805,000
from fiscal 1997 to 1998. During 1997, the Company reflected $1,140,000 in
revenues as a result of its non-cash transactions (sale of certain assets and
other goods and services) with an affiliate. For the fiscal year ended June 30,
1998, the Company has recognized an aggregate of $335,000 in other income for
consulting and management services rendered to affiliates.
Net Income. For the year ended June 30, 1998, the Company realized net
income of approximately $634,000 ($0.04 per share), versus net income of
approximately $106,000 (($0.09) per share) for the year ended June 30, 1997.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
Management believes that future cash flow from operations will be
sufficient to support the Company's operations. However, Company management
continues to implement what it believes to be the changes deemed necessary to
further increase positive cash flow and profitability. The Company has also
undertaken efforts to obtain additional sources of financing to fund future
acquisitions. No assurances can be given that these measures will generate the
fiscal improvement sought by the Company.
As of June 30, 1998, the Company reflected cash balances of
approximately $4,036,000 as compared to cash balances of approximately $271,000
at June 30, 1997, representing an increase of $3,765,000. Net cash used in
operating activities was approximately $338,000 for the fiscal year ended June
30, 1998, as compared to net cash used in operating activities of approximately
$1,350,000 for the fiscal year ended June 30, 1997. The net cash used in
operating activities during the year ended June 30, 1998 was primarily a result
of net income of approximately $634,000 as well as the following approximate

increase in accounts receivable of $417,000, an incease in other current assets

$6,169,000 during the fiscal year ended June 30, 1998, verus approximately
$2,238,000 during the fiscal year ended June 30, 1997. The increase in 1998

and exercise of common stock warrants of approximately $3,873,000 offset by
repayment of debt of approximately $847,000, versus issuance of debt of

Except as otherwise set forth herein, the Company has no material
commitments for capital expenditures. In order to fund growth over the long
term, the Company anticipates possible future issuance of its securities
resulting in further dilution to its security holders.
The Company operates pursuant to a policy that generally precludes
acceptance of goods on a non-cash basis (sometimes known as barter
transactions).
YEAR 2000 COMPLIANCE
The Company is currently in the process of evaluating and implementing
changes to computer programs necessary to address the year 2000 issue. The
Company does not anticipate any material additional costs with regard to its
year 2000 compliance.
The year 2000 issue is expected to affect the systems of various
entities with which the Company interacts. However, there can be no assurance
that the systems of other companies on which the Company's systems rely will be
timely converted, or that a failure by another company's systems to be year
2000 compliant would not have a material adverse effect on the Company.

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
- -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
1. DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS AND ORGANIZATION
- -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
ORGANIZATION
Interiors, Inc., a Delaware corporation ("Interiors" or the "Company"), is a
designer, manufacturer and marketer of a broad range of decorative accessories
for the residential, commercial, institutional and contract markets, including
museum-quality traditional and contemporary picture frames, framed wall
mirrors, framed hand-painted oil paintings, framed prints under glass, portable
and installed lighting and lighting fixtures, sculptures and decorative
tabletop accessories. Interiors primarily markets its products to retailers in
the home furnishings industry, including furniture stores, home furnishings
centers, catalog retailers, home improvement centers, department stores and
lighting retailers. The Company believes that it has a unique competitive
advantage in serving a broad range of customers because of the breadth and
depth of its product lines as well as its ability to coordinate design among
several product lines.
The majority of the Company's sales are domestic. Sales to the largest
customers totaled $4,274,521 and $1,786,000, or 32% and 38% of net sales
respectively, for the years ended June 30, 1998 and June 30, 1997. Accounts
Receivable due from the largest customers totaled approximately $451,000 and
$373,000 as of June 30, 1998 and 1997 respectively.
The Company from time to time entered into transactions with related parties
(See Note 13). To the extent that the Company is unable to attract and retain
qualified independent persons to serve on its board of directors, conflicts of
interest may arise due to these relationships.
- -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
- -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
BASIS OF PRESENTATION
The consolidated statements of income, stockholders' equity and cash flows
include the accounts of Interiors, Inc. and its wholly-owned subsidiaries
Henlor, Inc. and Artmaster Studios, Inc., which are included from their
respective dates of acquisition (refer to Note 4). Accordingly, significant
intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in the
consolidation. Henlor and Artmaster were subsequently merged with the
surviving entity, Henlor, changing its name to Vanguard Studios, Inc.
REVENUE RECOGNITION
Revenue is recognized at the time finished goods, whether standard product or
custom work is shipped or acceptance is acknowledged by the customer. Payments
received for merchandise not yet shipped or accepted are reflected within
prepaid sales and customer deposits, a current liability. Historically, sales
returns have not been significant.
CASH
The Company classifies as cash and cash equivalents amounts on deposit in banks
and cash invested temporarily in various instruments with maturities of three
months or less at time of purchase.
INVENTORIES
Inventory is valued at the lower of cost or market, with cost determined using
the first-in, first-out method. Finished goods consists of those items
available for shipping.
F-7
<PAGE>
INVESTMENT IN AFFILIATES
The Company accounts for its investment in affiliates under the cost method.
PROPERTY AND EQUIPMENT
Property and equipment is stated at cost. The cost of additions and
improvements and the costs incurred in the construction of castings and the
related master molds are capitalized and expenditures for repairs and
maintenance are expensed in the period incurred. Depreciation and amortization
of property and equipment is provided utilizing straight-line and accelerated
methods over the estimated useful lives of the respective assets as follows:
YEARS
-----
MACHINERY AND EQUIPMENT 3 - 10
FURNITURE AND FIXTURES 7 - 10
Leasehold improvements are amortized over the shorter of the remaining term of
the lease or the useful life of the improvement utilizing the straight-line
method.
INCOME TAXES
The Company uses the liability method of accounting for income taxes. Under
this method, deferred income taxes are recognized for the tax consequences of
"temporary differences" by applying enacted statutory tax rates to differences
between the financial statement carrying amounts and the tax basis of existing
assets and liabilities. Deferred income taxes have been provided for the
temporary differences between the financial reporting basis and the tax basis
of the Company's assets and liabilities (See Note 15).
GOODWILL
In connection with the acquisitions of Henlor, Inc. and Artmaster Studios, Inc.
amounts were paid in excess of the fair market value of the assets acquired.
These amounts have been recorded as goodwill and are being amortized over 40
years. It is the Company's policy to evaluate the life and amount of goodwill
on a continuous basis. Such evaluations are based on current market conditions
and expected future cash flows.
USE OF ESTIMATES IN PREPARATION OF THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principles requires of 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 changes in these estimates.
EARNINGS PER COMMON SHARE
For the year ended June 30, 1998, the Company adopted Statement of Financial
Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 128, "Earnings Per Share." In accordance with
SFAS No. 128, net earnings per common share amounts ("basic EPS") were computed
by dividing net earnings by the weighted average number of common shares
outstanding, and excluding any potential dilution. For purposes of this
calculation, common shares include both Class A and B shares of common stock.
Net earnings per common share amounts assuming "diluted EPS" were computed by
reflecting potential dilution from the exercise of stock options and warrants.
SFAS No. 128 requires the presentation of both basic EPS and diluted EPS on the
income statement. Earnings per share amounts for the same prior-year periods
have been restated to conform with the provision of SFAS No. 128.
A reconciliation between the numerators and denominators of the basic and
diluted EPS computations for net earnings is as

quarter of fiscal 1998. The adjustments relate to write-offs of certain other
assets, along with related amortization expense, interest expense and certain
other selling, general, and administrative expenses.
The Company recorded approximately $1,140,000 in expense reimbursements during
the fourth quarter of fiscal 1997. The income was primarily comprised of the

3. INVESTMENT IN AFFILIATES
- -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
INVESTMENT IN AFFILIATES CONSISTS OF THE FOLLOWING:
INVESTMENT IN DECOR GROUP, INC. ("DECOR")(a) $ 3,136,679
INVESTMENT IN PHOTO-TO-ART(TM)("P-2-A")(b) 1,140,000
-----------
TOTAL $ 4,276,679
(a) In the formation of Decor, the Company's intention was to create an
affiliate with a corporate identity clearly separate and distinct from
that of the Company and accordingly, pursuant to a March 3, 1996
agreement, Decor issued to the Company 250,000 shares of its Series A
Non-Voting Convertible Preferred Stock (sold by Interiors in February
1997) and an option to purchase 6,666,667 shares of its Series B
Non-Convertible Voting Preferred Stock (the "Option Shares") in exchange
for issuance to Decor by the Company of 200,000 shares of its Class A
Common Stock, and 200,000 shares of its Series A Convertible Preferred
Stock (both of which have subsequently been sold by Decor) and a
guarantee with respect to certain indebtedness should such indebtedness
become necessary. All Decor related disclosures have been adjusted to
reflect the following: (1) a one for two reverse stock split by Decor in
October, 1996; and (2) Decor declared and issued a dividend on Decor
common stock payable in the form of two shares of common stock for each
one share of common stock held as of December 16, 1996; and, (3) a
reverse stock split of one new share of common stock for each 3 shares
held on October 7, 1997. Effective with the Interiors' exercise of the
Option Shares in September 1996, for total cash consideration of $2,000,
the Company executed a Voting Agreement (the "Voting Agreement") to vest
the power to vote the Option Shares in a Voting Trust (the "Voting
Trust".) The Voting Agreement terminated in July 1998. In addition,
during the months of August and September 1996, the Company purchased
54,934 shares of Decor's Series C Non-Voting Convertible Preferred
Stock convertible into three shares of Decor's common stock, at a cost
of $824,000.
On November 12, 1996, Decor completed an initial public offering of
certain of its securities. The proceeds of such offering were used to
acquire the net assets of Artisan House, Inc., a designer and
manufacturer of wall hangings. Subsequent to Decor's initial public
offering and currently, the Company owns approximately 79% of the total
voting stock of Decor.
As of June 30, 1998, the Company's holding in Decor was recorded on the
Company's financial statements under the cost method of accounting which
was determined by the market value on November 12, 1996, of the
Company's trading securities previously transferred to Decor during
March 1996, plus acquisition costs, less the proportionate value of the
securities sold during February 1997. The cost method has been used by
Interiors as it presently has no residual equity interest (stock
ownership is mostly through Series B Preferred shares).
On April 21, 1998 the Company and Decor entered into an agreement and
plan of merger approved by the respective Board of Directors upon the
terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the agreement whereby
each issued and outstanding share of common stock, par value $.0001 per
share, of Decor ("Decor Common Stock"), other than shares owned by
Interiors or Decor, will be converted into the right to receive .50
shares of Interiors Class A Common Stock.
F-10
<PAGE>
(b) The Company entered into an agreement effective June 1, 1997, with
"P-2-A" a company which converts photographs into large-scale canvas oil
paintings, whereby the Company agreed to sell certain canvas related
assets as well as other goods and services to P-2-A in exchange for
$600,000 in equity securities of P-2-A and $50,000 in cash. This
agreement was amended as of June 30, 1997 to reflect an increase in value
to $1,140,000. Such amounts are reflected as a cost basis investment on
the Company's balance sheet as of June 30, 1998. The Company owns 270,000
shares of P-2-A stock and 120,000 warrants to purchase additional stock
at $4.50 per share (less than 5% ownership of P-2-A.). The valuation
ascribed to this transaction by the Company is comparable to the values
received by unrelated investors in private placement transactions between
those investors and P-2-A.
For transactions with Decor and P-2-A during the years ended June 30,
1998 and 1997, refer to Note 13.

DISSOLUTION OF ITALIA COLLECTION, INC. ("ITALIA")
Because of the declining revenues and high operating costs, on December
16, 1996, the Board of Directors decided to discontinue and dissolve
Italia. On December 27, 1996, a Notice of Public Auction was distributed
by Italia, advising all interested parties that a public auction of all
the assets of Italia consisting of molds, equipment, models and inventory
listed in a Security Agreement entered into between Italia, as debtor and
United Credit Corporation, as secured party, was to occur. The auction
took place on January 10, 1997 and the Company was the successful bidder,
thereby acquiring all of the assets of Italia in consideration for a
payment of $2,000 and the assumption by the Company of the liabilities of
Italia to United Credit Corp., which as of June 30, 1997 totaled
approximately $806,000. Since the financial statements of Italia are
consolidated into those of the Company, Italia's liabilities have already
been reflected on the Company's historical consolidated financial
statements. At June 30, 1997, the Company made the adjustments necessary
to properly restate recorded assets and liabilities, together with a
general reserve of approximately $56,000. These adjustments included
approximately $586,000 write-off of debt recorded based on the advice of
the Company's legal counsel (as the Company is not legally liable for
such liabilities). Further the Company wrote-off approximately $534,000
in assets related to its Italia subsidiary, which were not considered to
benefit the Company's future operations.

(a) This line of credit bears interest at a rate of prime plus 1% (9.50%
as of the date of this filing). The Company is paying the remaining
balance off at $12,000 per month.
(b) During November, 1997 the company borrowed $250,000 from Ekistics
Corp. This loan is due December 31, 1998 and bears interest of 12% per
annum.
(c) During February 1996 Interiors entered into an agreement with United
Credit Corporation ("UCC") a New York based lender whereby it borrowed
pursuant to an asset-related formula. The agreement remains in effect,
and may be terminated by either party upon notice to the other and
payment of the commitment fee for the unexpired term of this
agreement. The lender advanced the Company 80% of eligible
receivables. Upon collection of the receivable, the lender remits the
balance of 20%. Interest is calculated on the daily cash balance at
the rate of prime plus 9% per annum (17% as of the date of this
filing) or a minimum of 18% per annum against a minimum monthly
defined compensation of $3,000. In addition, the secured lender
received personal guarantees from Max Munn, President and Chief
Executive Officer of the Company, and his spouse.
The Company had outstanding secured financing with Infinity Investors,
Ltd., totaling approximately $188,000 at September 30, 1997. This loan
was secured by 600,000 shares of the Company's Class A common stock
(the "Infinity Collateral") that had been held in Treasury Stock. UCC
paid approximately $188,000 to Infinity, on December 17, 1997, which
consisted of all of the Company's then outstanding debt to Infinity
and received title to the Ininity Collateral. The Company consented to
UCC's peaceful possession of the Infinity Collateral in exchange for a
reduction of the Company's debt in the amount of $480,000. This debt
reduction shall occur simultaneously with UCC's disposal of the
Infinity Collateral. This debt reduction totaled $180,000 as of
December 31, 1997 and has been reflected in shareholders' equity as a
sale of Treasury Stock. The balance of $300,000 was used to satisfy
debt previously guaranteed on Interiors and indemnified by Decor
(dating back to March 1996). The payment of the guarantee was intially
recorded as expenses during the year ended June 30, 1998, with a
corresponding receivable of $300,000 from Decor recorded and was also
reflected in equity as a sale of Treasury Stock.
(d) In February 1997, the Company received a loan from BH Funding, LLC

repay certain indebtedness of the Company and for continued operating
expenses. The Company in order to collateralize the loan to BH pledged
and assigned to BH and granted to BH a continuing security interest
in the Company's 6,666,667 shares of Series B Non-Convertible
preferred Stock of Decor, and the Company's 54,934 shares of Series C
Convertible Preferred Stock holdings in Decor Group, Inc to BH. In
connection with this agreement, the Company transferred to BH 100,000
shares of Series A Preferred Stock and 100,000 shares of Class A
Common Stock. The fair market value of these shares on the date of
issuance was allocated as follows: $350,000 as acquisition consulting
on the Decor transaction; $350,000 as interest on the loan (to be
amortized over the life of the loan using the effective interest
method); and $25,000 as additional expense of the Company's sale of
its 250,000 Series A Convertible Preferred Stock holdings in Decor
Group, Inc. During the year ended June 30, 1998 the company repaid
$225,000 leaving a balance of $375,000 as of June 30, 1998. In July
1998, the Company entered into an agreement with BH Funding whereby
all unpaid accrued interest was waived upon the Company's full
repayment of the principal balance of the debt. The related
unamortized debt issuance costs will be written off during the first
quarter of fiscal 1999 against the gain on forgiveness of the debt
(accrued interest) resulting in an immaterial amount.
(e) In connection with Interiors recent acquisition of Merchandise Sales,
Inc. (MSI), the Company issued a total of
F-18
<PAGE>

repayment of $86,797.
(g) On April 19, 1995 Vanguard Studios entered into an agreement with
Capital Factors, Inc., a Florida based lender, whereby it borrowed
pursuant to an asset-related formula. The agreement, including various
revisions, remains in effect as of June 30, 1998. According
to the agreement, the lender, upon confirmation of shipments, will
advance the company 85% of the receivable. Interest is calculated on
the daily cash balance at the rate of 6.75% above the Prime Rate
(15.25% as of the date of this filing). The maximum loan amount is set
at $3,000,000, which includes a borrowing limit of $1,200,000 on
inventory, based on 50% of the total inventory reported. On October
17, 1997, the Company arranged for additional financing from this
lender in the form of a term loan for $152,000. Interest will be
calculated at 1.75% above the Prime Rate. This loan will be payable in
monthly installments concluding on September 1, 2000.

Class B Warrants to purchase 15,000 shares of Class A Common Stock and
Class C Warrants to purchase 15,000 shares of Series A Preferred Stock

using the Black Scholes model and the discount was determined to be
immaterial to the consolidated financial statements.
(i) During March 1998, the Company issued convertible notes in the amount
of $1,700,000. These notes are due March 19, 2000 and bear interest at
6% per annum payable quarterly. Any default in payment of interest
triggers a default interest rate of 16% per annum. The holders have
the right, from and after 180 days after the issuance of the notes to
convert up to one-half of the outstanding and unpaid principal portion
of the notes into Class A shares based upon a formula involving the
five previous trading days of the shares. The terms of these notes
required issuance of 175,000 two-year warrants to purchase Class A
Common Stock at $1.75 per share. Warrants to purchase 198,333 shares
of Class A common stock were issued in connection with these notes.
These options were valued using the Black Scholes model and discount
was recorded accordingly.
(j) During March, 1998 the Company issued convertible subordinated notes
in the aggregate principle amount of $1,270,000. These notes are due
March 17, 2001 and bear interest at 15% per annum payable quarterly.
These notes are secured by stock of Henlor and are convertible at the
election of the holders into Class A Shares at the range of
$1.50-$1.75 per share. The associated capitalized deferred issuance
expenses were charged to operations. The terms on this note required
issuance of 100,000 two-year warrants with an exercise price of $1.75
per warrant for each Class A Common Share. As of June 30,1998,
$695,000 of these notes were converted into Class A Shares and
Warrants to purchase 286,000 shares of Series A Preferred Stock and
27,000 shares of Class A common stock were issued in connection with
these notes. The warrants were valued using the Black Scholes formula

DESCRIPTION OF SECURITIES
COMMON STOCK
Class A Shares. The Certificate of Incorporation of the Company
authorizes the issuance of up to 60,000,000 Class A Shares. Each Class
A Share is entitled to one non-cumulative vote per share on all
matters on which stockholders' may vote at meetings of stockholders.
The Class A Shares are not convertible into any other securities of
the Company.
F-19
<PAGE>
Class B Shares. The Certificate of Incorporation of the Company
authorizes the issuance of up to 2,500,000 Class B Shares. Each Class
B Share is entitled to five non-cumulative votes per share on all
matters on which stockholders may vote at meetings of stockholders.
The Class B Shares are convertible on a one-for-one basis at any time
after issuance at the option of the holder into Class A Shares.
The holders of Class A Shares and Class B Shares (collectively,
"Common Stock"): (i) have equal ratable rights to dividends from funds
legally available therefor, when, as and if declared by the Board of
Directors of the Company; (ii) are entitled to share ratably in all of
the assets of the Company available for distribution to holders of
Common Stock, upon liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the
affairs of the Company; and (iii) do not have preemptive or
subscription rights and there are no redemption or sinking fund
provisions applicable thereto. All shares of Common Stock issued and
outstanding are duly authorized, fully paid and nonassessable. Except
as otherwise required by law, the holders of Common Stock shall vote
together as a single class on all matters.
PREFERRED STOCK
The Certificate of Incorporation of the Company authorizes the
issuance of up to 5,300,000 shares of Preferred Stock, $.01 par value
per share. Of this amount 2,870,000 shares have been designated as
Series A, 10% Cumulative Convertible Preferred Stock (the "Series A
Preferred Shares"). The Board of Directors is authorized to issue
shares of Preferred Stock from time to time in one or more series and,
subject to the limitations contained in the Certificate of
Incorporation and any limitations prescribed by law, to establish and
designate any such series and to fix the number of shares and the
relative conversion rights, voting rights and terms of redemption
(including sinking fund provisions) and liquidation preferences. If
shares of Preferred stock are issued with voting rights, such issuance
could affect the voting rights of the holders of the Company's Class A
Shares by increasing the number of outstanding shares having voting
rights, and by the creation of class or series voting rights. Shares
of Preferred Stock with conversion rights could potentially increase
the number of Class A Shares outstanding. Issuance of Preferred Stock
could, under certain circumstances, have the effect of delaying or
preventing a change in control of the Company and may adversely affect
the rights of holders of Class A Shares. Also, Preferred Stock could
have preferences over the Class A Shares (and other series of stock)
with respect to dividends and liquidation rights.
SERIES A 10% CUMULATIVE CONVERTIBLE PREFERRED STOCK
The Series A Preferred Stock consists of 2,870,000 shares. After
September 17, 2000, each Series A Preferred Share is redeemable by the
Company in whole or in part at $5.50 per share upon 30 days prior
written notice. Each Series A Preferred Share is convertible, subject
to adjustment, into three shares of Class A Common Stock of the
Company. The Series A Preferred Stock is entitled to a dividend, prior
to any payment of dividends on the Class A or Class B Common Stock, of
$0.50 per share per annum payable in semi-annual installments of $0.25
per share. If the Series A Preferred Stock dividend is not paid, it
accumulates until paid in full to date. The Company may elect to pay
the Series A Preferred Stock dividend either in cash or in shares of
Class A Common Stock, which Class A Common Stock shall be issued for
such purposes on the basis of the average closing prices of the Class
A Common Stock for the ten business days prior to the date of
declaration of the Series A Preferred Stock dividend. The Series A
Preferred Stock shall not have any right to vote except to the extent,
if any, required by Delaware law. Upon liquidation of the Company,
each Series A Preferred Share is entitled to receive $5.00 plus
accrued and unpaid dividends before any payment is made to the holders
of Common Stock.
In December 1997, the Company's Board of Directors declared a stock
dividend equivalent to $0.75 per share to its series A 10% Cumulative

WARRANTS AND OTHER
Except as otherwise set forth herein, the Company has not material
commitments for capital expenditures. In order to fund growth over the
long term, the Company anticipates possible future issuance of its
securities resulting in further dilution to its security holders.
STOCK OPTION PLANS
The 1994 Plan. On June 20, 1994, the Company adopted the Interiors,
Inc. 1994 Stock Option and Appreciation Rights Plan (the "1994 Plan"),
which provides for the granting of options to officers, employees and
consultants to purchase not more than an aggregate of 250,000 Class A
shares. Directors of the Company are not eligible to participate in
the 1994 Plan. The 1994 Plan provides for the grant of options
intended to qualify as "incentive
F-21
<PAGE>
stock options" under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended
(the "Code") as well as options which do not so qualify.
Pursuant to the 1994 Plan, the Board of Directors or a stock option
committee established by the Board to administer the 1994 Plan
determines that persons to whom options are granted, the number of
Class A shares subject to option, the period during which the options
may be exercised and the option exercise price. With respect to
incentive stock options, no option may be granted more than ten years
after the effective date of the 1994 Plan or exercised more than ten
years after the date of grant (five years if the optionee owns more
than ten percent of the Class A Shares of the Company at the time of
grant). Additionally, with respect to incentive stock options, the
option price may not be less than 100% of the fair market value of the
Class A Shares on the date of the grant (110% if the optionee owns
more than ten percent of the Class A Share of the Company at the time
of grant). The fair market value of the Class A Shares will be
determined by the Board or the Committee in accordance with the 1994
Plan as follows: If the Class A Shares are not listed and traded upon
a recognized securities exchange, on the basis of recent purchases and
sales of Class A Shares in arms-length transactions or based on the
last reported sale or transaction price for such stock on the date
grant or, if the shares are traded on a recognized securities exchange
or quoted on the NASDAQ National Market System upon the basis of the
last reported sale or transaction price on the date of grant or, if
the shares were not traded on such date, on the date nearest preceding
that date. Subject to certain limited exceptions, options may not be
exercised unless, at the time of exercise, the optionee is in the
service of the Company.
The Board of Directors or the Committee may, in its discretion, at any
time prior to the exercise of any option, grant in connection with
such option the right to surrender part or all of such option to the
extent the option is exercisable, and receive an amount (payable in
cash, Class A Shares or combination thereof as determined by the Board
or the Committee) equal to the difference between the then fair market
value of the shares issuable upon the exercise of the option (or
portions thereof surrendered) and the exercise price of the option or
portion thereof surrendered.
The Director Plan. On June 20, 1994 the Board of Directors approved
the 1994 Director Stock Option and Appreciation Rights Plan (the
"Director Plan"). The Director Plan was adopted to provide an
incentive to Directors through automatic and discretionary grants of
stock options. The Director Plan provides for the grant of options
intended to qualify as "incentive stock options" under the Code as
well as options which do not so qualify.
The Director Plan may be administered by a committee appointed by the
Board of Directors of the Company (the " Committee"). Options under
the Director Plan may be granted to each person who is a Director of
the Company on the date of grant. All Directors of the Company are
eligible to receive options of the Director Plan.
The Director Plan provides for the granting of options to Directors in
such amount and, subject to the terms of the Director Plan, upon such
terms as the Board or Committee determines in its discretion in order
to reward the recipient director for extraordinary service to the
Company. In addition, on the second Monday of May of each year each
person who is then a director of the Company shall be automatically
granted an option to purchase 10,000 of the Company's Class A Shares,
subject to adjustment as provided for by the Director Plan. The
aggregate number of shares for which options may be issued pursuant to
the Director Plan is 250,000 shares. The exercise price for options
granted under the Director Plan must be equal to the fair market value
per Class A Share on the date of grant. The fair market value of the
Class A Shares will be determined by the Board or the Committee in
accordance with the Director Plan as follows: If the Class A share are
not listed and traded upon a recognized securities exchange, on the
basis of recent purchase and sales of Class A Share in arms-length
transactions or based on the last reported sale or transaction price
for such stock on the date of grant or, if the share are traded on a
recognized securities exchange or quoted on the NASDAQ National Market
System up the last reported sales or transaction price on the date of
grant or, if the shares were not trade on such date, on the date
nearest preceding that date. Each option granted under the Director
Plan expire ten years after the date of grant, unless a less period is
specified by the Committee.
In the event an optionee ceases to be an option, he may exercise only
such options as are exercisable at the time he ceases to be a
Director, within the original term of the option. Options which are
not exercisable at the time an optionee ceases to be a Director shall
terminate. In event an optionee dies, the Director Plan provides for
the exercise of an option on behalf of the deceased Director.
F-22
<PAGE>
As of June 30, 1998, an aggregate of 1,032,500 options are exercisable
at prices ranging from $1.00 to $3.50.
The Company accounts for its plan under APB Opinion No. 25, under
which no compensation cost has been recognized as all options granted
during 1996 and 1997 have been granted at the fair value of Company's
common stock. Had compensation cost for these plans been determined in
accordance with SFAS 123, the Company's net income and EPS would have
been reduced as follows:
YEAR ENDED JUNE 30 YEAR ENDED JUNE 30
------------------ ------------------
1998 1997
NET INCOME AS REPORTED.... $633,674 $105,924
PRO FORMA...... (88,232) 105,924
BASIC EPS AS REPORTED.... $.04 $(.09)
PRO FORMA...... $(.06) $(.09)
DILUTED EPS AS REPORTED.... $.04 $(.09)
PRO FORMA...... $(.06) $(.09)
Under SFAS No. 123, the fair value of each option is estimated on the date of
grant using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model with the following weighted
average assumptions used for grants in 1998: (1) expected life of option is 2-5
years; (2) dividend yield of 0%; (3) expected volatility of 93%; and (4) risk
- -free interest rate of 6.0%.
Because SFAS No. 123 method of accounting has not been applied to options
granted prior to July 1, 1995 resulting pro forma compensation cost may not be
representative of the to be expect in future years.

the agreement. Additional transfers of funds from Decor to the Company will be
subject to the attainment by Decor of excess cash flow totaling $4,000,000 per
year through December 31, 1999. During the fourth quarter of 1998, the Company
charged Decor $125,000 for various services considered to be outside the scope
of the Management Fee, including engineering and marketing studies. At June 30
1998, the Company has accrued approximately $260,000 of fees pursuant to the
agreement and the fiscal 1998 additional fee.
P-2-A has agreed to sublease approximately 21,000 square feet of office and
manufacturing space from the Company at an annual rental rate of $63,000 per
year plus rent escalations. The term of the sublease is from June 1, 1997 to
December 31, 2001. In addition, the current supply contract between the Company
and P-2-A has been amended to continue for a term of seven (7) years. Sales to
P-2-A for the years ended June 30, 1998 and 1997 were approximately $360,000
and $365,000 respectively. During the year ended June 30, 1998, the Company
provided consulting services to P-2-A in the amount of $75,000. As of June 30,
1998, P-2-A owed the Company $150,676.
Pursuant to an April 21, 1998 resolution of the Company's Board of Directors
relating to the guarantee of the Company's obligations to the former
shareholders of Henlor, Inc. and other continuing guarantees by Laurie Munn,
wife of the Company's President and Chief Executive Officer, the Company agreed
to defer certain payments on notes receivable from Laurie Munn. As restructured
interest accrued on the combined balance of $948,000 at 6.6%, interest will be
due April 21, 1999, and annually thereafter no interest has been accrued as of
June 30, 1998. The principal is due on April 21, 2003.
On April 4, 1996, the Company's Board of Directors resolved to issue 250,000
shares of the Company's Class B Common Stock to Laurie Munn, wife of the

consideration for a down payment $250, Ms. Munn's 6.6% note to the Company
providing for principal of $437,500 to be paid to the Company in five equal
annual installments of $105,561.90 and Ms. Munn's guaranty and pledge of her
assets for certain Company debt. The company obtained an appraisal at that time
to determine the fair market values of this transaction. The shares were issued
to Ms. Munn on April 8, 1996. A Promissory Note and Security Agreement, whereby
the shares will collateralize the Promissory Note, was executed by the Company
and Ms. Munn pursuant to these terms. The Promissory Note remains outstanding.
On January 9,1998, Laurie Munn, wife of the Company's President and CEO,
obtained an option to purchase the above 1,250,000 Escrow Shares at fair value
at the date of the grant. Due to the substance of this grant, the wife of the
CEO, Laurie Munn's options are accounted for as if she is an employee of the
Company. This option was issued to Laurie Munn in consideration, amongst other
things, for her continuing personal guarantees of Company obligations to
several lenders, including BH Funding. In addition, Laurie Munn purchased
730,000 shares of Class B common stock at $.70 per share, the approximate
F-24
<PAGE>
fair value of such shares at the time of the purchase. The purchase price is
due in annual installments through January 2005 at an interest rate of 6.6%.
The purchased stock is the collateral for this obligation.
In March, 1997 the Company borrowed $100,000 at 6 1.2% per annum interest from
Laurie Munn, wife of Max Munn, the Company's CEO. The loan is evidence by
demand promissory note. This note was repaid in October 1997.
Effective June 30, 1996, the Company entered into a consulting agreement with
Morris Munn, father of the Company's President and Chief Executive Officer,
under which he will provide the Company with the following: design and
fabrication of new molds for sculpture, recommend and implement improvements in
antiquing, woodworking, gliding and carving processes, and attend trade shows.
As part of this agreement, over the subsequent five-years, the Company will
payment Mr. Munn $54,000 per annum in equal bi-weekly installments, and issue
to Mr. Munn options to purchase up to 350,000 shares of the Company's Series A
Preferred Stock. These options were fully exercised during July to September
1996, generating net proceeds to the Company totaling $787,500.
The Company currently has employment agreements with five key executives. Under
these agreements the Company has committed to total aggregate base compensation
per year of approximately $815,000 plus other normal customary fringe benefits,
stock options, bonuses and annual increase in compensation. The employment
agreements generally have terms of three to five years.

- -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
In July 1991, the Company started a qualified Profit Sharing Plan for all

employees. The Company has not made any contributions to the Qualified Profit

FEDERAL $_______ $______
STATE AND LOCAL 52,543 10,654
DEFERRED INCOME TAX (160,783) (30,000)
--------- --------
TOTAL 108,240 $19,346

Federal income tax purposes is approximately $4,500,000 (which expire through
2011). The deferred tax asset of approximately $1,500,000 is comprised
primarily of net operating losses. The utilization of such NOL's maybe limited
in the future due to changes in ownership.
Through June 30, 1996, all deferred tax assets were fully reserved. For the
years ending June 30, 1998 and 1997, the Company has determined it is "more
likely than not" that at least a portion of its deferred tax assets with be
utilized. Accordingly, the previously recorded valuation allowance has been
reduced by $30,000 for the year ended June 30, 1997 and by approximately
$161,000 in 1998.

at the statutory federal income tax rate. State income taxes have been recorded
based upon the applicable state requirements.
