NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(In thousands, except per share data)
NOTE 1 -- Basis of Presentation
The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of
ThrustMaster, Inc., and its wholly-owned subsidiary, ThrustMaster Foreign Sales
Corporation, and have been prepared by the Company without audit and in
conformity with generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial
information. Accordingly, certain financial information and footnotes have
been omitted or condensed. In the opinion of management, the unaudited
condensed consolidated financial statements include all necessary adjustments
(which are of a normal and recurring nature) for the fair presentation of the
results of the interim periods presented. These financial statements should be
read in conjunction with the Company's audited financial statements for the
year ended December 31, 1996. The results of operations for the periods
presented are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected
for the entire fiscal year.
NOTE 2 -- Inventories
Inventories are stated at the lower of cost (first-in, first-out) or
market. Inventories are as follows (in thousands):

NOTE 3 -- Impact of Recently Issued Accounting Standards
During February 1997, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 128, "Earnings Per Share"
("SFAS 128") and Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 129,
"Disclosure of Information about Capital Structure "(SFAS 129"), which are
effective for the Company's 1997 fiscal year. The Company's management has
studied the implications of SFAS 128 and SFAS 129, and based on the initial
evaluation, does not expect the adoption to have a material impact on the
Company's financial condition or results of operations.

</TABLE>
COMPARISON OF THREE MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 1997 TO THE THREE MONTHS ENDED JUNE
30, 1996
Revenues for the three months ended June 30, 1997 were $7,149,000, an
increase of $2,899,000, or 68.2%, compared to $4,250,000 for the three months
ended June 30, 1996. Revenues grew due to both increasing demand for the
Company's core products and additional sales into the warehouse-club
distribution channel.
Gross profit for the three months ended June 30, 1997 was $2,669,000, an
increase of $1,034,000, or 63.2%, compared to $1,635,000 for the three months
ended June 30, 1996. As a percentage of revenues, the gross profit margin
percentage was 37.3% for the three months ended June 30, 1997 and 38.5% for the
three months ended June 30, 1996. The gross profit margin percentage decreased
primarily because of a higher percentage of sales into the warehouse-club
distribution channel, which yield somewhat lower gross margins.
Total operating expenses for the three months ended June 30, 1997 were
$2,244,000, an increase of $680,000, or 43.5%, compared to $1,564,000 for the
three
<PAGE>
months ended June 30, 1996. As a percentage of revenues, total operating
expenses were 31.4% for the quarter ended June 30, 1997, compared to 36.8%
for the quarter ended June 30, 1996.
Research and engineering expenses were $531,000 for the quarter ended June
30, 1997, an increase of $123,000, or 30.1%, compared to $408,000 for the
quarter ended June 30, 1996. The increase resulted primarily from additional
expenses incurred in development of the Company's new products. As a
percentage of revenues, research and engineering expenses were 7.4% for the
quarter ended June 30, 1997, compared to 9.6% for the quarter ended June 30,
1996.
Selling, general and administrative expenses were $1,713,000 for the three
months ended June 30, 1997, an increase of $557,000, or 48.2%, compared to
$1,156,000 for the quarter ended June 30, 1996. The increase was primarily due
to higher selling expenses associated with higher revenues, and increases in
other merchandising and marketing expenses. As a percentage of revenues,
selling, general and administrative expenses decreased to 24.0% for the quarter
ended June 30, 1997, compared to 27.2% for the quarter ended June 30, 1996.
Interest income for the three-month periods ended June 30, 1997 and 1996
was derived from the investment of the cash balances of the Company.
The provision for income taxes for the three-month period ended June 30,
1997, reflects an effective tax rate of 37.2%. This compares to a tax rate
of 37.6% for the three-month period ended June 30, 1996.
COMPARISON OF SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 1997 TO THE SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30,
1996
Revenues for the six months ended June 30, 1997 were $13,421,000, an
increase of $4,607,000, or 52.3%, compared to $8,814,000 for the six months
ended June 30, 1996. Revenues grew primarily due to increased demand for the
Company's core products and additional sales into the warehouse-club
distribution channel.
Gross profit for the six months ended June 30, 1997 was $5,155,000, an
increase of $1,926,000, or 59.6%, compared to $3,229,000 for the six months
ended June 30, 1996. As a percentage of revenues, the gross profit margin
percentage was 38.4% for the six months ended June 30, 1997 and 36.6% for the
six months ended June 30, 1996. The gross profit margin percentage increased
primarily because the Company's newer products and current product mix have
higher gross margins. Gross margins were affected somewhat due to an increase
in sales in the warehouse-club distribution channel, which typically have lower
gross margins.
Total operating expenses for the six months ended June 30, 1997 were
$4,352,000, an increase of $1,250,000, or 40.3%, compared to $3,102,000 for
the six months ended June 30, 1996. As a percentage of revenues, total
operating expenses were
<PAGE>
32.4% for the six-months period ended June 30, 1997, compared to 35.2% for
the six-month period ended June 30, 1996.
Research and engineering expenses were $1,204,000 for the six months ended
June 30, 1997, an increase of $321,000, or 36.4%, compared to $883,000 for the
six months ended June 30, 1996. The increase resulted primarily from
additional expenses incurred in development of the Company's new products. As
a percentage of revenues, research and engineering expenses were 9.0% for the
six months ended June 30, 1997, compared to 10.0% for the six months ended June
30, 1996.
Selling, general and administrative expenses were $3,148,000 for the six
months ended June 30, 1997, an increase of $929,000, or 41.9%, compared to
$2,219,000 for the six months ended June 30, 1996. The increase was primarily
due to higher amounts of selling expenses associated with higher revenues, and
increases in other merchandising and marketing expenses. As a percentage of
revenues, selling, general and administrative expenses decreased to 23.4% for
the six months ended June 30, 1997, compared to 25.2% for the six months ended
June 30, 1996.
Interest income for the six-month periods ended June 30, 1997 and 1996 was
derived from the investment of the cash balances of the Company.
The provision for income taxes for the six-month period end June 30, 1997,
reflects an effective tax rate of 37.1%. This compares to a tax rate of 37.6%
for the six-month period ended June 30, 1996.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
The Company has financed its activities to date with a combination of cash
flow from operations, borrowed funds, and proceeds from the sale of equity
securities.
The Company has a credit facility with U.S. National Bank of Oregon.
Under present terms, the Company may borrow up to the lesser of $1,000,000 or
75% of certain eligible receivables collateralizing the facility. The credit
facility, which is scheduled for review in July of 1998, requires the Company
to maintain certain working capital and debt to equity ratios. At June 30,
1997 there were no borrowings outstanding and the Company was in compliance
with all bank loan covenants.
Net cash provided by operating activities was $2,138,000 for the six
months ended June 30, 1997, resulting primarily from net income of $618,000, a
decrease in accounts receivable of $4,335,000, and a decrease in payables and
accrued liabilities of $3,119,000.
Capital expenditures for the six-month period ended June 30, 1997 were
$586,000 compared to $332,000 for the same period in the prior year. These
expenditures were primarily for new product tooling and computer equipment.
<PAGE>
The Company believes that available funds together with borrowings under
its credit facility will be adequate to meet the Company's anticipated cash
needs during the next 12 months.
This Report on Form 10-Q contains forward-looking statements (as defined
in Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended) which
reflect management's current views with respect to future events and financial
performance. The following important factors, among others, could affect the
Company's actual results and could cause such results to differ materially from
those expressed in the Company's forward-looking statements: product
commercialization and technological change, competition, dependence on software
developers and publishers, variability in periodic operating results,
seasonality, customer concentration, dependence upon key personnel, proprietary
rights, offshore manufacturing, dependence upon sole or limited suppliers,
dependence upon independent distributors and sales representatives,
international sales, lack of industry diversification and governmental
regulation and other risks detailed from time to time in the Company's SEC
reports, including the Company's Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year
December 31, 1996.
