Financial Statements THIS FORM 10-QSB/A IS BEING FILED FOR THE PURPOSE OF AMENDING AND RESTATING PARTS OF FORM 10-QSB TO REFLECT THE RESTATEMENT OF OUR CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AS OF AND FOR THE PERIODS ENDED MARCH 31, 2000 AND 2001. THESE REVISIONS HAVE BEEN MADE CONCERNING SUBORDINATED DEBT ROLLFORWARDS AND THE RECALCULATION OF EXPENSES ASSOCIATED WITH CERTAIN WARRANTS ISSUED BY THE COMPANY. ALL PORTIONS OF THE FORM 10-QSB THAT ARE EFFECTED BY THESE REVISIONS HAVE BEEN ADJUSTED ACCORDINGLY. ALL INFORMATION IN THIS FORM 10-QSB/A IS AS OF MARCH 31, 2001 AND DOES NOT REFLECT ANY SUBSEQUENT INFORMATION OR EVENTS OTHER THAN THE RESTATEMENT. The following consolidated financial statements of the Registrant are attached to this Form 10-QSB: 1. Interim Balance Sheet as of March 31, 2001 and Balance Sheet as of December 31, 2000. 2. Interim Statements of Operations for the three month periods ending March 31, 2001, and March 31, 2000. 3. Interim Statements of Cash Flows for the three month periods ending March 31, 2001 and March 31, 2000. The Financial Statements reflect all adjustments which are, in the opinion of management, necessary to a fair statement of results for the periods presented. Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operation On August 19, 2002, we reported that we had discovered accounting inaccuracies in certain prior period financial statements requiring restatement of the financial statements for those periods. This statement involved inaccuracies related to the recording of expenses associated with the issuance of certain warrants by the Company. We are restating our statements of operations, cash flows, and stockholders' equity for the years ended December 31, 2001 and 2000 and for the interim periods ended March 31, June 30 and September 30 of 2001 and 2002, and the balance sheets as of December 31, 2001 and 2000. We have determined that in 2000 and 2001, the Company did not record the proper amount of expense associated with the issuance of warrants by the Company in connection with the issuance of certain subordinated debt and certain senior debt by the Company. Based upon the fair value of the warrants at the time of issuance, a debt discount was to be recorded in the amount of such warrant value with respect to the subordinated and senior debt with which the warrants were associated. This discount was to be amortized and expensed over the term of the debt. The total amount of this debt discount related to the warrants was $487,440 and was to be recorded over the period from November, 1999 through September 30, 2002. During that time, the total amount actually recorded was $14,273, which was recorded for the quarter ended December 31, 2001. We have determined that the amount of such expense should have been recorded in the following periods for the following amounts: Two Months Ended December 31, 1999 $42,556 Quarter Ended March 31, 2000 $45,523 Quarter Ended June 30, 2000 $45,523 Quarter Ended September 30, 2000 $45,523 Quarter Ended December 31, 2000 $45,523 Quarter Ended March 31, 2001 $42,471 Quarter Ended June 30, 2001 $36,368 Quarter Ended September 30, 2001 $43,243 Quarter Ended December 31, 2001 $18,998 Quarter Ended March 31, 2002 $ 6,875 Quarter Ended June 30, 2002 $ 6,875 Quarter Ended September 30, 2002 $ 6,875 The restated financial statements in this Report incorporate the proper entries for these expenses and all necessary adjustments have been made to the statement of operations, cash flows, stockholders' equity and balance sheet in the financial statements. Results of Operations Net Sales. For the three months ended March 31, 2001, net sales were $6,081,000, as compared to sales of $7,162,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2000, a decrease of 15.1%. The decline in sales is due to a decrease in metallized balloon sales of approximately $1,400,000, which was partially offset by an increase in printed and laminated film sales of $350,000. Cost of Sales. For the three months ended March 31, 2001, cost of sales increased to 73.3% of net sales as compared to 69.1% of net sales for the same period in 2000. The increase was primarily the result of lower than expected margins in the production and sale of latex balloons. Administrative. For the three months ended March 31, 2001, administrative expenses were $747,000 or 12.3% of sales as compared to $858,000, or 12.0% of sales for the same period in 2000. The majority of the decrease in administrative expense dollars came from reduced expenditures in the Company's Mexico operation. Selling. For the three months ended March 31, 2001, selling expenses were $426,000 or 7.0% of sales, as compared to $523,000, or 7.3% of net sales for the same period in 2000. The decline in selling expense dollars is primarily related to the decline in sales volume and the selling expenses directly associated with those sales. Advertising and Marketing. For the three months ended March 31, 2001, advertising and marketing expenses were $271,000 or 4.5% of net sales as compared to $314,000 or 4.4% of net sales in the same period 2000. The decrease in advertising and marketing expense dollars came from several items, mainly reduced spending for printed 2 advertising media, and reduced expenditures related to the Company's participation in trade shows. Other Income or Expense. Interest expense increased to $342,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2001, as compared to $331,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2000. The increase in interest expense is due to the Company's increased level of borrowings. Net Income or Loss. For the three months ended March 31, 2001, the Company had a loss before taxes and minority interest of $190,000, as compared to income before taxes and minority interest of $217,000 for the same three month period in 2000. The provision for income taxes for the three-month period ended March 31, 2001 was $9,000, resulting in a net loss of $176,000. The provision for income taxes for the three-month period ended March 31, 2000 was $57,000, resulting in net income of $131,000. Financial Condition Liquidity and Capital Resources. Cash flow used in operations during the three months ended March 31, 2001 was $1,085,000, which resulted principally from an increase accounts receivable. During the three months ended March 31, 2000, cash flow provided by operations was $86,000, mainly a result of non-cash depreciation and amortization expense and lower inventory levels. Investment Activities. During the three months ended March 31, 2001 cash flow used in investing activities for the purchase of machinery and equipment was $82,000. In the three months ended March 31, 2000, $152,000 was used in investing activities, primarily for the purchase of machinery and equipment, and the purchase of additional equity ownership in CTI Mexico. Financing Activities. For the three months ended March 31, 2001, cash flow provided by financing activities was $1,208,000. The two primary sources of this cash flow were the refinancing of the Company's debt which netted additional cash of approximately $800,000, and the cash flow provided by the short-term revolving line of credit. Cash flow provided by financing activities for the three months ended March 31, 2000 was $171,000, resulting from the use of the short-term revolving line of credit. At March 31, 2001, the Company had a cash balance of $435,000. The Company's current cash management strategy includes maintaining minimal cash balances and utilizing the revolving line of credit for liquidity. At December 31, 2000, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of $393,000. At March 31, 2001, the Company had working capital of ($1,180,000), and at December 31, 2000, working capital was ($3,862,000). The Company believes that existing capital resources and cash generated from operations, will be sufficient to meet the Company's requirements for at least 12 months. Seasonality. In the mylar product line, sales have historically been seasonal with approximately 20% to 27% of annual sales of mylar being generated in December and January and 11% to 13% of annual mylar sales being generated in June and July in recent 3 years. The sale of latex balloons and laminated film products have not historically been seasonal. Safe Harbor Provision of the Private Securities Litigation Act of 1995 and Forward Looking Statements. The Company operates in a dynamic and rapidly changing environment that involves numerous risks and uncertainties. The market for mylar and latex balloon products is generally characterized by intense competition, frequent new product introductions and changes in customer tastes which can render existing products unmarketable. The statements contained in Item 2 (Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operation) that are not historical facts may be forward-looking statements (as such term is defined in the rules promulgated pursuant to the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) that are subject to a variety of risks and uncertainties more fully described in the Company's filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission including, without limitation, those described under "Risk Factors" in the Company's Form SB-2 Registration Statement (File No. 333-31969) effective November 5, 1997. The forward-looking statements are based on the beliefs of the Company's management, as well as assumptions made by, and information currently available to the Company's management. Accordingly, these statements are subject to significant risks, uncertainties and contingencies which could cause the Company's actual growth, results, performance and business prospects and opportunities in 2001 and beyond to differ materially from those expressed in, or implied by, any such forward-looking statements. Wherever possible, words such as "anticipate," "plan," "expect," "believe," "estimate," and similar expressions have been used to identify these forward-looking statements, but are not the exclusive means of identifying such statements. These risks, uncertainties and contingencies include, but are not limited to, the Company's limited operating history on which expectations regarding its future performance can be based, competition from, among others, national and regional balloon, packaging and custom film product manufacturers and sellers that have greater financial, technical and marketing resources and distribution capabilities than the Company, the availability of sufficient capital, the maturation and success of the Company's strategy to develop, market and sell its products, risks inherent in conducting international business, risks associated with securing licenses, changes in the Company's product mix and pricing, the effectiveness of the Company's efforts to control operating expenses, general economic and business conditions affecting the Company and its customers in the United States and other countries in which the Company sells and anticipates selling its products and services and the Company's ability to (i) adjust to changes in technology, customer preferences, enhanced competition and new competitors; (ii) protect its intellectual property rights from infringement or misappropriation; (iii) maintain or enhance its relationships with other businesses and vendors; and (iv) attract and retain key employees. There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to identify, develop, market, sell or support new products successfully, that any such new products will gain market acceptance, or that the Company will be able to respond effectively to changes in customer preferences. There can be no assurance that the Company will not encounter technical or other difficulties that could delay introduction of new or updated products in the future. If the Company is unable to introduce new products and respond to industry changes or customer preferences on a timely basis, its business could be materially adversely affected. The Company is not obligated to update or revise these forward-looking statements to reflect new events or circumstances. 4 Part II. OTHER INFORMATION Item 1. Legal Proceedings Not applicable.
