NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(UNAUDITED)
(1) Unaudited Financial Statements.
- --- -------------------------------
Certain information and note disclosures normally included in financial
statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles
have been omitted from these unaudited financial statements. These unaudited
financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements
and notes included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-KSB for the year
ended September 30, 1996 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. The
results of operations for the three- and nine-month periods ended June 30, 1997
are not necessarily indicative of the operating results for the full year. In
the opinion of management, all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring
accruals, have been made to present fairly the Company's financial position at
June 30, 1997 and the results of its operations for the three- and nine-month
periods ended June 30, 1997 and 1996 and its cash flows for the nine months
ended June 30, 1997 and 1996.
(2) Reporting Periods.
- --- ------------------
The Company's fiscal year is the 52-week or 53-week period ending the last
Sunday in September. Fiscal 1996 was a 53-week year and fiscal 1997 is a 52-week
year. For presentation convenience, the Company has indicated in these financial
statements that its fiscal year ended on September 30 and that the three and
nine months presented ended on June 30. The first quarter of fiscal 1996 was a
14-week period and the same quarter in fiscal 1997 was a 13-week period. The
remaining quarters in fiscal 1996 and 1997 are 13-week quarters.
(3) Property and Equipment.

(4) Acquisition of Carver Professional Sound Division.
- --- --------------------------------------------------
Effective November 20, 1995, the Company acquired substantially all of the
assets of the professional sound division (the "Division") of Carver Corporation
("Carver"). The assets acquired included finished goods and intellectual
property, including the license of the name "Carver Professional" for five
years. The purchase price for the assets was $2.14 million, of which the Company
paid $1.79 million in cash and issued a $350,000 note payable, which has since
been paid. The Company accounted for the acquisition under the purchase method
of accounting and recorded in-process research and development expenses of $1.12
million, finished goods of $780,000, other intangibles of $110,000 and goodwill
of $132,000. Other intangibles and goodwill are being amortized using the
straight-line method of accounting over a period of five years. The Company has
included the results of operations for the Division in its financial statements
from the date of acquisition.
(5) Long-term Obligations.
- --- ----------------------
In March 1997, the Company borrowed $800,000 pursuant to a secured loan from a
third party lender. The loan bears interest at 11.1% per annum and is due in
monthly installments of $26,258 until maturity on March 1, 2000. The loan is
secured by certain of the Company's machinery and equipment.
(6) Prospective Accounting Changes.
- --- -------------------------------
In February 1997, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 128, Earnings Per Share.
SFAS No. 128 will have no effect on the financial position or results of
operations of the Company as the statement establishes new standards for
computing and presenting earnings per share and supercedes Accounting Principles
Board Opinion No. 15, Earnings Per Share. SFAS No. 128 will be adopted by the
Company in the quarter ending December 31, 1997. Earlier adoption is not
permitted. Pro forma earnings (loss) per share under SFAS No. 128 for the three
and nine months ended June 30, 1997 and 1996 would not differ materially from
the earnings (loss) per share presently reported.
In June 1997, the FASB issued SFAS No. 130, Reporting Comprehensive Income. SFAS
No. 130 establishes requirements for disclosure of comprehensive income and
becomes effective for the Company's fiscal year ending September 1999.
Reclassification of earlier financial statements for comparative purposes is
required.
In June 1997, the FASB issued SFAS No. 131, Disclosures about Segments of an
Enterprise and Related Information. SFAS No. 131 establishes standards for
disclosure about operating segments in annual financial statements and selected
information in interim financial reports. It also establishes standards for
related disclosures about products and services, geographic areas and major
customers. This statement supersedes SFAS No. 14, Financial Reporting for
Segments of a Business Enterprise. The new standard becomes effective for the
Company's fiscal year ending September 1999, and requires that comparative
information from earlier years be restated to conform to the requirements of
this standard.

PART I. FINANCIAL INFORMATION
Item 2: Management's Discussion and Analysis or Plan of Operation
PHOENIX GOLD INTERNATIONAL, INC.
MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
- ---------------------
Net sales for the third quarter ended June 30, 1997 increased $802,000, or
10.7%, to $8.3 million from $7.5 million in the third quarter in fiscal 1996.
Speaker sales increased 116.3% compared to the same quarter in fiscal 1996 due
in part to the recommencement of XMAX subwoofer sales in the third quarter and
increased distribution of existing products. Accessories sales increased 9.9%
compared to the same quarter in fiscal 1996. Sales of electronics products were
comparable to sales in the quarter ended June 30, 1996. Increased sales of car
audio electronics were offset by weaker demand for professional audio
electronics. The Company began shipping in the quarter initial models of its QX
Series and XS Series car audio amplifiers that are designed to address lower
price points.
Net sales for the nine months ended June 30, 1997 increased $750,000, or 3.9%,
to $20.1 million from $19.3 million in fiscal 1996. Sales of speakers increased
91.4% in the first nine months of fiscal 1997 compared to the same period in
fiscal 1996. Sales of electronics products increased 3.9% and sales of
accessories declined 11.1% in the respective periods.
International sales increased 15.9% to $3.4 million for the three months ended
June 30, 1997 from $2.9 million in the comparable fiscal 1996 quarter.
International sales represented 40.6% and 38.8% of net sales for the three
months ended June 30, 1997 and 1996, respectively.
International sales decreased 0.5% to $7.8 million for the nine months ended
June 30, 1997, from $7.9 million in the comparable 1996 period. The decrease
resulted primarily from sales made to a European distributor in the prior
nine-month period in anticipation of European regulatory changes effective as of
December 31, 1995 that were not repeated in the more recent period.
International sales represented 39.0% and 40.7% of net sales for the nine months
ended June 30, 1997 and 1996, respectively.
Gross margin decreased to 30.0% of net sales from 31.7% for the three months
ended June 30, 1997 and 1996, respectively. Gross margin decreased to 24.7% for
the nine months ended June 30, 1997 from 28.8% for the comparable prior period.
The decreases in gross margin resulted primarily from changes in product mix and
lower than expected sales volume which caused manufacturing overhead to increase
as a percentage of sales.
Operating expenses consist of selling, general and administrative expenses.
Operating expenses decreased $505,000, or 26.6%, to $1.4 million for the three
months ended June 30, 1997 compared $1.9 million in the same quarter in fiscal
1996. Operating expenses were 16.9% and 25.4% of net sales in the respective
three-month periods. Operating expenses decreased $1.4 million, or 24.9%, to
$4.2 million for the nine months ended June 30, 1997 compared to the comparable
period in fiscal 1996. Operating expenses were 20.7% and 28.6% of net sales in
the respective nine-month periods. Operating expenses for the first quarter of
fiscal 1996 included a one-time pre-tax charge of $1.12 million for in-process
research and development acquired from Carver Corporation. See Note 4 of Notes
to Financial Statements.
Selling expenses declined $211,000, or 19.5%, to $871,000 for the three months
ended June 30, 1997 compared to the comparable fiscal 1996 quarter. Selling
expenses were 10.5% and 14.5% of net sales in the respective quarters. The
decreased selling expenses in dollar amount were principally due to salary
reductions by senior management and marketing, advertising and promotional
expense reductions. Selling expenses decreased 1.2% in the first nine months of
fiscal 1997, to $2.4 million compared to the first nine months of fiscal 1996.
Selling expenses were 11.9% and 12.5% of net sales in the respective nine-month
periods.
<PAGE>
General and administrative expenses declined $293,000, or 36.0%, to $522,000 for
the three months ended June 30, 1997 compared to $816,000 in the comparable
fiscal 1996 quarter. General and administrative expenses were 6.3% and 10.9% of
net sales in the respective quarters. The decrease in general and administrative
expenses for the quarter resulted primarily from reductions in bad debt expense,
labor expenses and facilities costs. General and administrative expenses were
8.9% and 10.4% of net sales in the respective nine-month periods
Other expense increased $55,000 to $128,000 in the third quarter of fiscal 1997
from other expense of $73,000 for third quarter of fiscal 1996. Other expense
increased $285,000 to $379,000 in the first nine months of fiscal 1997 compared
to $93,000 in the first nine months of fiscal 1996. The increases were due to
higher interest rates on larger borrowings.
Net earnings were $586,000, or $0.17 per share, for the three months ended June
30, 1997, compared to net earnings of $245,000, or $0.07 per share, for the
three months ended June 30, 1996. Net earnings for the first nine months of
fiscal 1997 were $248,000, or $0.07 per share, compared to a net loss of
$34,000, or $0.01 per share, for the first nine months of fiscal 1996.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
- -------------------------------
The Company's primary needs for funds are for working capital and, to a lesser
extent, capital expenditures. The Company financed its operations during the
nine months ended June 30, 1997 primarily from cash provided from operations and
increased long-term debt. Rather than accumulating excess cash, the Company pays
down in part the balances owing on its operating line of credit on a daily basis
when cash flow from operations exceeds current needs, resulting in low cash
balances.
During the nine months ended June 30, 1997, accounts payable decreased $1.6
million, inventories decreased $1.1 million, notes payable decreased $606,000
and accrued expenses decreased $367,000, leading to an increase in working
capital of $1.1 million.
The Company made capital expenditures of $325,000 in the nine months ended June
30, 1997. Management anticipates that capital expenditures for the remainder of
fiscal 1997 will be approximately $200,000. These anticipated expenditures will
be financed from proceeds of short-term debt and cash provided from operations.
The Company has a $5.5 million revolving bank operating line of credit expiring
on December 31, 1997. Borrowings under the line of credit are limited to
eligible accounts receivable and inventory, and are subject to certain
additional limits. Interest on borrowings is equal to the bank's prime lending
rate (8.5% at June 30, 1997) plus an additional percentage based on the
Company's tangible net worth. At June 30, 1997, the additional percentage above
prime was 2.0%. Borrowings under the line of credit are secured by substantially
all of the Company's assets. As of June 30, 1997, the Company was eligible to
borrow $5.4 million under the line of credit and borrowings under the line of
credit as of that date were $3.7 million.
FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
- --------------------------
This Report contains "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of the
Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, including, without limitation,
statements as to expectations, beliefs and future financial performance, that
are based on current expectations and are subject to certain risks, trends and
uncertainties that could cause actual results to vary from those projected,
which variances may have a material adverse effect on the Company. Among the
factors that could cause actual results to differ materially are the following:
business conditions and growth in the car audio, professional sound and custom
audio/video and home theater markets and the general economy; competitive
factors such as rival products and price pressures; the failure of new products
to compete successfully in existing or new markets; the failure to achieve
timely improvement in the manufacturing ramp with respect to new products;
changes in product mix; availability and price of components, subassemblies and
products supplied by third party vendors; and cost and yield issues associated
with production at the Company's factory.
