NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1)    BASIS OF PRESENTATION

        The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and therefore do not include all information and footnotes necessary for a complete presentation of financial position, results of operations and cash flows in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

        The unaudited consolidated financial statements do, however, reflect all adjustments, consisting of only normal recurring adjustments, which are, in the opinion of management, necessary to state fairly the financial position as of August 31, 2002 and November 30, 2001 and the results of operations and cash flows for the related interim periods ended August 31, 2002 and 2001. However, these results are not necessarily indicative of results for any other interim period or for the year. It is suggested that the accompanying consolidated financial statements be read in conjunction with the Company's Consolidated Financial Statements and accompanying notes thereto included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K.

        The Company has incurred substantial losses from operations, has a working capital deficit and has not been in compliance with minimum net income, minimum book net worth and debt service coverage ratio covenants, and therefore is in technical default under the compliance provisions of its bank line of credit and term loan. In order to fund present and future operations, the Company needs to return to profitability and cure its covenant violations with its lender or find a replacement lender with acceptable terms. While the Company is in the process of attempting to cure its line of credit violations, and has initiated plans to return to profitability, there are no assurances that the Company will be successful in completing these critical tasks. If the Company is unable to successfully complete these critical tasks, it may be forced to reduce its operations and/or liquidate inventory at amounts below current carrying value to generate the necessary working capital to fund its operations.

2)    INVENTORIES

        Inventories are stated at the lower of cost (determined on the first-in, first-out method) or market. Inventories consisted of the following:

4)    SEGMENT REPORTING

        The Company's foreign operations include both manufacturing and sales. The manufacturing facility is located in Ireland and the sales joint venture is located in Singapore. Both facilities began operations in fiscal 1998. All of the sales are made to unaffiliated customers. The following is a summary of selected financial information by entities within geographic areas for the three and nine months ended August 31, 2002 and 2001.

5)    CONTINGENT LIABILITIES

        Legal proceedings to which the Company is a party are discussed in Part 1 Legal Proceedings, in the latest Annual Report on form 10-K and in Part II, Item 1 of this Form 10-Q.

6)    RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

        In April 2002, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (the "FASB") issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 145, "Rescission of SFAS No. 44 and 64, Amendment of SFAS No. 13, and Technical Corrections," to update, clarify and simplify existing accounting pronouncements. SFAS No. 4, which required all gains and losses from debt extinguishment to be aggregated and, if material, classified as an extraordinary item, net of related tax effect, was rescinded. Consequently, SFAS No. 64, which amended SFAS No. 4, was recinded because it was no longer necessary. We do not expect the adoption of this statement to have a material effect on the Company's financial statements.

        In June 2002, the FASB issued SFAS No. 146, "Accounting for Costs Associated with Exit or Disposal Activities." SFAS 146 addresses accounting and reporting for costs associated with exit or disposal activities and nullifies Emerging Issues Task Force Issue No. 94-3, "Liability Recognition of Certain Employee Termination Benefits and Other Costs to Exit and Activity (Including Certain Costs Incurred in a Restructuring)." SFAS No. 146 requires that a liability for a cost associated with an exit or disposal activity be recognized and measured initially at fair value when the liability is incurred. SFAS No. 146 is effective for exit or disposal activities that are initiated after December 31, 2002, with early application encouraged. We do no expect the adoption of this statement to have a material effect on the Company's financial statements.

ITEM 2—MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (UNAUDITED).

        The following discussion should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and the related notes that appear elsewhere in this document.

        This document contains forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties that could cause the results of the Company and its consolidated subsidiaries to differ materially from those expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. These risks include the timely development, production and delivery of new products; the challenge of managing asset levels, including inventory and trade receivables; the difficulty of keeping expense growth at modest levels while increasing revenues and other risks described from time to time in the Company's filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, including but not limited to the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended November 30, 2001 and in "Factors That Could Affect Future Results" below.

        Forward-looking statements reflect the current views of the Company with respect to future events and are subject to certain risks, uncertainties and assumptions. Should one or more of these risks or uncertainties materialize, or should underlying assumptions prove incorrect, actual results may vary materially from those described herein as anticipated, believed, estimated or expected.

Results of Operations
FY 02 Current Three Months Versus FY 01

        Net sales for the quarter ended August 31, 2002 were $9,555,000, versus $9,379,000 for the same period of fiscal 2001, an increase of $176,000 or 2%. This increase in net sales is primarily attributable to slightly higher sales volumes and some new products sold to existing customers during the quarter.

        Cost of sales for the quarters ended August 31, 2002 and 2001 were $8,474,000 and $8,601,000, respectively. Cost of sales as a percentage of net sales was 89% for the third quarter of fiscal 2002, compared to 92% for the third quarter of fiscal 2001. Cost of sales as a percentage of net sales decreased primarily due to lower labor and overhead costs due to the optimizing of manufacturing processes and consolidation of domestic operations.

        Selling, general and administrative expenses for the third quarter of fiscal 2002 and 2001 were $813,000 and $1,001,000, respectively, a decrease of $188,000 or 19%. This decrease was due primarily to the closure of the Company's plant in Texas near the end of fiscal year 2001 and the Company's continued focus on reducing expenses in order to improve operating results.

        Interest expense for the third quarter of fiscal 2002 and 2001 remained constant at $105,000.

        Net income for the third quarter of fiscal 2002 was $27,000, compared to a net loss of $426,000 for the third quarter of fiscal 2001. Basic and diluted income per share for the third quarter of fiscal 2002 was $0.00 per share on a weighted average of 8.7 million shares, compared to a net loss of $0.05 per share on a weighted average of 8.7 million shares for the third quarter of fiscal 2001. The reduction in net loss was primarily attributable to an increase in sales and reduced operating expenses for domestic operations.

FY 02 Nine Months Versus FY 01

        Net sales for the nine months ended August 31, 2002 were $27,470,000 versus $29,283,000 for the same period of fiscal 2001, a decrease of $1,813,000 or 6%. This decrease in year-to date sales compared to the prior year was attributable to higher sales in early fiscal 2001, before increased pricing pressures and the continued slow down in domestic economic conditions had a continuing negative effect on sales in late 2001 and early 2002.

9



        Cost of sales for the nine months ended August 31, 2002 and 2001 was $24,719,000 and $26,356,000, respectively, a decrease of $1,637,000 or 6%. Cost of sales as a percentage of net revenue was 90% for both the nine months of fiscal 2002 and 2001. In a year-to-date comparison, cost improvements realized in the most recent quarter of fiscal 2002 are offset by higher margins in the Company's Singapore operations in early fiscal 2001 (see discussion below).

        Selling, general and administrative expenses for the nine months ended August 31, 2002 and 2001 were $2,472,000 and $3,295,000, respectively, a decrease of $823,000 or 25%. This decrease was due primarily to the closure of the Company's plant in Texas near the end of fiscal year 2001 and the Company's continued focus on reducing operating expenses in order to improve operating results.

        Interest expense for the nine months of fiscal 2002 and 2001 was $295,000 and $397,000, respectively. The decrease is primarily due to lower average loan balances and lower interest rates.

        The net loss for the nine months of fiscal 2002 and 2001 was $369,000 and $2,544,000, resepctively, including restructuring charges of $1,440,000 in fiscal 2001. Basic and diluted loss per share for the nine months of fiscal 2002 was $0.04 per share on a weighted average of 8.7 million shares, compared to net loss of $0.29 per share on a weighted average of 8.7 million shares for the nine months of fiscal 2001.

Segment Information

        The following is a discussion of operating results for each of the Company's business segments. Quarterly financial data for each segment can be found in Note 4 to these consolidated financial statements. The reportable segments disclosed in this Form 10-Q are based on the Company's internal management responsibility.

FY 02 Current Three Months Versus FY 01

AMI-U.S. Operations

        Net sales for the quarter ended August 31, 2002 were $4,020,000, compared to net sales for the quarter ended August 31, 2001 of $3,928,000, an increase of $92,000 or 2%. The increase in net sales is primarily attributable to higher sales volumes and some sales of new products to existing customers. The net loss for the quarter ended August 31, 2002 was $76,000, compared to net loss for the quarter ended August 31, 2001 of $734,000. The decrease in the net loss is primarily attributable to the Company's continued focus on the reduction of operating expenses in order to improve profitability.

AMFSC-Singapore

        Net sales for the quarter ended August 31, 2002 were $3,081,000, compared to net sales for the quarter ended August 31, 2001 of $3,220,000, a decrease of $139,000 or 4%. This decrease in net sales for the third quarter of fiscal 2002 is primarily attributable to recently lowered sales prices on component sales to computer printer manufacturers. Net income for the quarter ended August 31, 2002 was $87,000, compared to net income for the quarter ended August 31, 2001 of $308,000. The decrease in net income is primarily attributable to the reduction in the Company's share of the gross profit per its agreement with its strategic manufacturing partner in Singapore.

AML-Ireland

        Net sales for the quarter ended August 31, 2002 were $2,454,000, compared to net sales for the quarter ended August 31, 2001 of $2,231,000, an increase of $223,000 or 10%. The increase in net sales for the third quarter of fiscal 2002 is primarily attributable to higher sales volumes to new and existing customers. The net income for the quarter ended August 31, 2002 was $16,000 compared to net income for the quarter ended August 31, 2001 of $0. The increase in net income is primarily due to the increased sales.

10



FY 02 Nine Months Versus FY 01

AMI-U.S. Operations

        Net sales for the nine months ended August 31, 2002 were $10,941,000, compared to net sales for the nine months ended August 31, 2001 of $14,322,000, a decrease of $3,381,000 or 24%. This decrease in year-to-date sales compared to the prior year was attributable to higher sales in early fiscal 2001, before increased pricing pressures and the continued slow down in domestic economic conditions had a continuing negative effect on sales in late 2001 and early 2002. The net loss for the nine months ended August 31, 2002 was $699,000, compared to net loss for the nine months ended August 31, 2001 of $3,517,000, including restructuring charges of $1,440,000 in fiscal 2001. The $1,378,000 or 66% decrease in the net loss, excluding restructuring charges, is primarily attributable to the Company's plant closures in late fiscal 2001 and the continued focus on the reduction of operating expenses and optimization of manufacturing processes in order to improve profitability.

AMFSC-Singapore

        Net sales for the nine months ended August 31, 2002 were $9,333,000, compared to net sales for the nine months ended August 31, 2001 of $8,391,000, an increase of $942,000 or 11%. This increase in net sales for the nine months of fiscal 2002 is primarily attributable to higher volumes of component sales to computer printer manufacturers. Net income for the nine months ended August 31, 2002 was $356,000, compared to net income for the nine months ended August 31, 2001 of $770,000. The decrease in net income is primarily attributable to the reduction in the Company's share of the gross profit per its agreement with its strategic manufacturing partner in Singapore.

AML-Ireland

        Net sales for the nine months ended August 31, 2002 were $7,196,000, compared to net sales for the nine months ended August 31, 2001 of $6,570,000, an increase of $626,000 or 10%. This increase in net sales for the first nine months of fiscal 2002 is primarily attributable to higher volumes of component sales to computer printer manufacturers. Net loss for the nine months ended August 31, 2002 was $26,000, compared to net income for the nine months ended August 31, 2001 of $203,000. The decrease in net income is primarily due to recent lower prices for printer supply sales.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

        Cash and cash equivalents were $415,000 at August 31, 2002, compared with $1,303,000 at November 30, 2001. During the first nine months of fiscal year 2002, cash flows from financing activities were used to fund operations ($1,359,000) and purchase property, plant and equipment ($223,000).

        Operating activities used $1,359,000 of cash during the third quarter of fiscal 2002, compared with generating $1,762,000 in the corresponding period of fiscal 2001. The decrease in cash generated from operating activities in fiscal 2002 resulted primarily from reductions in the restructuring reserve and accounts payable and accrued liabilities aggregating $1,237,000.

        Inventory at August 31, 2002 was $3,699,000, compared to $3,551,000 at November 30, 2001.

        Net trade receivables at August 31, 2002 were $6,534,000, compared to $6,401,000 at November 30, 2001. The increase is due to slightly higher sales near the end of the period ended August 31, 2002 compared to the period ended November 30, 2001.

        Capital expenditures were $223,000 for the nine months in 2002, compared to $454,000 for the corresponding period in fiscal 2001. The Company has instituted a Company-wide program to reduce non-essential capital expenditures, which are not specifically focused on revenue growth.

11



        The Company uses short- and long-term borrowings to supplement internally generated cash flow. Short- and long-term borrowings in the nine months of 2002 increased by $694,000.

        The Company had $415,000 of cash and cash equivalents at August 31, 2002. The Company has a $4,500,000 operating credit line with its primary lenders with $3,718,000 currently outstanding as of August 31, 2002, which expires in February 2003. The Company has an outstanding term loan of $314,000 as of August 31, 2002 with the same bank. The term loan bears interest at prime plus 3.25% (8.25% at August 31, 2002). The Company anticipates that existing cash, cash from operations and existing lines of credit will supply sufficient cash for its short and long term projected needs for operations as long as the Company is successful in curing its covenant violations or finding a replacement lender with acceptable terms. (See discussion below).

        At August 31, 2002, the Company had a working capital deficit and was not in compliance with minimum net income, minimum book net worth and debt service coverage ratio covenants, and therefore is in technical default under the compliance provisions of its bank line of credit and term loan. In order to fund present and future operations, the Company needs to return to profitability and to cure its covenant violations with its lender or find a replacement lender with acceptable terms. While the Company is in the process of attempting to cure its line of credit violations, and has initiated plans to return to profitability, there are no assurances that the Company will be successful in completing these critical tasks. If the Company is unable to successfully complete these critical tasks, it may be forced to reduce its operations and/or liquidate inventory at amounts below current carrying value to generate the necessary working capital to fund its operations.

Factors That Could Affect Future Results

        Banking—The Company has incurred substantial losses from operations, has a working capital deficit and has not been in compliance with minimum net income, minimum book net worth and debt service coverage ratio covenants, and therefore is in technical default under the compliance provisions of its bank line of credit and term loan. In order to fund present and future operations, the Company needs to cure its covenant violations with its lender or find a replacement lender with acceptable terms. While the Company is in the process of attempting to cure its line of credit violations, and has initiated plans to return to profitability, there are no assurances that the Company will be successful in completing these critical tasks. If the Company is unable to successfully complete these critical tasks, it may be forced to reduce its operations and/or liquidate inventory at amounts below current carrying value to generate the necessary working capital to fund its operations.

        Competition—The Company encounters aggressive competition in all areas of its business. It has numerous competitors, ranging from several comparable-size companies to many relatively small companies. The majority of the competitors are private, closely held companies. There is also the risk that a supplier to the Company could become a competitor. The Company competes primarily on the basis of performance, price, quality and customer service. Product life cycles are short, with numerous small one-time customer orders. To remain competitive, the Company must be able to quickly develop new products and enhance existing products in response to customer demands. In some of its markets, the Company may not be able to successfully compete against current and future competitors, and the competitive pressures faced could harm the business and prospects.

        New Product Introductions—If the Company cannot continue to rapidly develop and manufacture innovative products that meet customer requirements for performance, price, quality and customer service, it may lose market share and future revenue and earnings may suffer. The process of developing new products and corresponding manufacturing processes is complex and uncertain. The customer decision-making process can be lengthy and some raw materials have extremely long lead times. These circumstances often lead to long delays in new product introductions. After a product is developed, the Company must be able to manufacture sufficient volumes quickly at low enough costs.

12


To do this it must accurately forecast volumes and mix of products. Customer orders have also been subject to dramatic swings from customer provided forecasts. Thus, matching customers' demand and timing for particular products makes the process of planning production and managing inventory levels increasingly difficult.

        Short Product Life Cycles—The short life cycles of many of the Company's products pose a challenge to effectively manage the transition from existing products to new products. If the Company does not manage the transition effectively, the future revenue and earnings could suffer. Among the factors that make a smooth transition from current products to new products difficult are delays in the customer decision-making process, development of manufacturing processes, long lead times for the delivery of raw materials and variations in product costs. The Company's future revenues and earnings could also suffer due to the timing and introduction of new product offerings, which compete directly or indirectly with its customers' products and new product offerings by its competitors.

        Reliance on Suppliers—The Company's manufacturing operations depend on its suppliers' ability to deliver quality raw materials and components in time for it to meet critical manufacturing and distribution schedules. The Company sometimes experiences a short supply of certain raw materials as a result of supplier out-of-stock situations or long manufacturing lead times. If shortages or delays exist, the Company's future operating results could suffer. Furthermore, it may not be able to secure enough raw materials at reasonable prices to manufacture new products in the quantities required to meet customer demand. Sudden or large raw materials price increases could also cause future operating results to suffer.

        International—Sales outside the United States make up more than 60% of the Company's revenues. Manufacturing for these products are also located outside of the United States. The Company's future earnings or financial position could be adversely affected by a variety of international factors, including:

        Market Risk—The majority of the Company's sales are denominated in U.S. dollars. All costs in Singapore and the majority of direct material costs in Ireland are also denominated in U.S. dollars. However, the Company is exposed to foreign currency exchange risk inherent in the sales commitments, anticipated sales and assets and liabilities denominated in currencies other than the U.S. dollar. See also "Item 7A. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk" in the Company's 2001 Annual Report on Form 10-K for more detailed information.

        Earthquake—The corporate offices and manufacturing division in California are located near major earthquake faults. The ultimate impact on the Company and its general infrastructure is unknown, but operating results could be materially affected in the event of a major earthquake. The Company is predominantly uninsured for losses and interruptions caused by earthquakes.

        Environmental—Some of the Company's operations use substances regulated under various federal, state and international laws governing the environment. It is our policy to apply strict standards

13



for environmental protection to sites inside and outside the U.S., even when not subject to local government regulations. The Company has not been notified of any environmental infractions.

        Profit Margin—The Company's profit margins vary somewhat among its products and geographic markets. Consequently, the overall profitability in any given period is partially dependent on the product, customer and geographic mix reflected in that period's net sales.

        Stock Price—The Company's stock price, like that of any other small-cap company, can be volatile. Some of the factors that can affect the stock price are:

        General market conditions and domestic or international macroeconomic factors unrelated to the Company's performance may also affect the stock price. For these reasons, investors should not rely on recent trends to predict future stock prices or financial results. In addition, following periods of volatility in a company's securities, securities class action litigation against a company is sometimes instituted. This type of litigation could result in substantial costs and the diversion of management time and resources.

        Earnings Fluctuations—Although management believes the Company has products and resources needed for successful results, it cannot reliably predict future revenue and margin trends. Actual trends may cause it to adjust its operations, which could cause period-to-period fluctuations in earnings.

        The Company's common stock traded on The Nasdaq SmallCap Stock Market ("Nasdaq") under the symbol "ADMG" from June 23, 1993 until December 13, 2000. Effective as December 14, 2000, the Company's common stock was delisted from Nasdaq and has traded on the NASD-regulated OTC Bulletin Board ("Bulletin Board") under the symbol "ADMG.OB."


ITEM 3—QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK.

        A discussion of the Company's exposure to, and management of, market risk appears in Item 2 of this Form 10-Q under the heading "Factors That Could Affect Future Results."


ITEM 4—PROCEDURES AND CONTROLS

        Within the 90 days prior to the date of this report, the Company carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of the Company's management, including the Company's Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Company's disclosure controls and procedures pursuant to Exchange Act Rule 13a-14. Based upon that evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that the Company's disclosure controls and procedures are effective. There were no significant changes in the Company's internal controls or in other factors that could significantly affect these controls subsequent to the date of their evaluation.
