FOUNTAIN POWERBOAT INDUSTRIES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARY
NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
NOTE 1 - BASIS OF PRESENTATION
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared by the Company
without audit. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (which
include only normal recurring adjustments) necessary to present fairly
the financial position, results of operations and cash flows at
December 31, 2002 and for all periods presented have been made.
Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in
financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted
accounting principles in the United States of America have been
condensed or omitted for purposes of filing interim financial
statements with the Securities and Exchange Commission. It is
suggested that these condensed financial statements be read in
conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto included in
the Company's June 30, 2002 audited financial statements. The results
of operations for the period ended December 31, 2002 is not necessarily
indicative of the operating results for the full year.
Principles of Consolidation: The consolidated financial statements
include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiary,
Fountain Powerboats, Inc. All significant inter-company accounts and
transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
Accounting Estimates: The preparation of financial statements in
conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the United
States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions
that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the
disclosures 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 those
estimated by management.
Cash and Cash Equivalents: For purposes of the statement of cash flows,
the Company considers all highly liquid debt instruments with a
maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents. At December
31, 2002 and June 30, 2002, the Company had $1,176,384 and $329,640,
respectively, in excess of federally insured amounts held in cash.
Recently Enacted Accounting Standards: During quarter ended September
30, 2002, the Company adopted Emerging Issue Task Force 01-9
"Accounting for Consideration Given by a Vendor to a Customer
(including a Reseller of the Vendor's Products)", requiring the Company
to reclassify dealer incentive interest paid to resellers from Selling
Expense to Net Sales. Prior year financial statements have been
reclassified to reflect the change in accounting principle.
Reclassifications: The financial statements for years prior to
December 31, 2002 have been reclassified to conform with headings and
classifications used in the December 31, 2002 financial statements.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments: Management estimates the carrying
value of financial instruments on the consolidated financial statements
approximates their fair values.

FOUNTAIN POWERBOAT INDUSTRIES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARY
NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
NOTE 1 - BASIS OF PRESENTATION [Continued]
Revenue Recognition: The Company generally sells boats only to
authorized dealers and to the U.S. Government. A sale is recorded when
a boat is shipped to a dealer or to the Government, legal title and all
other incidents of ownership have passed from the Company to the dealer
or Government, and an accounts receivable is recorded or payment
received from the dealer, the Government, or the dealer's third-party
commercial lender. This is the method of sales recognition in use by
most boat manufacturers.
The Company has developed criteria for determining whether a shipment
should be recorded as a sale or as a deferred sale (a balance sheet
liability). The criteria for recording a sale are that the boat has
been completed and shipped to a dealer or to the Government, that title
and incidents of ownership have passed to the dealer or to the
Government, and that there is no direct or indirect commitment to the
dealer or to the Government to repurchase the boat.
The sales incentive interest payment program for each boat sale is
accrued for the entire interest period in the same fiscal accounting
period that the related sale is recorded. The amount of interest
accrued is subsequently adjusted to reflect the actual number of days
of remaining liability for floor plan interest for each individual boat
remaining in the dealer's inventory and on floor plan.
NOTE 2 - ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE
As of December 31, 2002, accounts receivable were $710,595 net of the
allowance for bad debts of $27,841. This is a decrease from the
$3,003,992 in net accounts receivable recorded at June 30, 2002. Of
the balance at December 31, 2002, $8,352 subsequently has been
collected as of January 22, 2003, and the remaining $702,243 is
believed to be fully collectible.
NOTE 3 - INVENTORIES
Inventories at December 31, 2002 and June 30, 2002 consisted of the

NOTE 4- COMMON STOCK
During September 2002, a director of the Company exercised his option
to purchase 12,500 shares of the Company's common stock at $1.344 per
share.
During December 2001, the Company issued 10,000 options to purchase
common stock to a consultant for services to be rendered valued at
$12,342. The options are exercisable at $1.45 per share, vest through
December 2004 and expire December 2009. During the six months ended
December 31, 2002, the Company recorded consulting expense of $1,996.
During January 2002, the Company issued 20,000 options to purchase
common stock to a consultant for services to be rendered valued at
$27,953. The options are exercisable at $1.67 per share, vest through
January 2004 and expire January 2009. During the six months ended
December 31, 2002, the Company recorded consulting expense of $6,850.
NOTE 5 - COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
Manufacturer Repurchase Agreements - The Company makes available
through third-party finance companies floor plan financing for many of
its dealers. Sales to participating dealers are approved by the
respective finance companies. If a participating dealer does not
satisfy its obligations under the floor plan financing agreement in
effect with its commercial lender(s) and boats are subsequently
repossessed by the lender(s), then under certain circumstances the
Company may be required to repurchase the repossessed boats if it has
executed a repurchase agreement with the lender(s). At December 31,
2002, the Company had a total contingent liability to repurchase boats
in the event of dealer defaults and if repossessed by the commercial
lenders amounting to approximately $22,760,059. The Company has
reserved for the future losses it might incur upon the repossession and
repurchase of boats from commercial lenders. The amount of the
allowance is based upon probable future events which can be reasonably
estimated. At December 31, 2002, the allowance for boat repurchases
was $200,000.
Dealer Interest - The Company regularly pays a portion of dealers'
interest charges for floor plan financing. These interest charges
amounted to approximately $443,942 and the estimated unpaid dealer
interest included in accrued expenses amounted to $221,013 for the
first six months ended December 31, 2002.
NOTE 6 - TRANSACTIONS WITH RELATED PARTIES
At December 31, 2002, the Company had receivables and advances from its
employees amounting to $11,874.
During the six month period ended December 31, 2002, the Company paid
$6,400 for services rendered to entities owned or controlled by the
Company's Chairman, President, and Chief Executive Officer.
The Company paid $28,000 during the six month period ended December 31,
2002 for advertising services received from an entity owned by a
Company director.
During September 2002, a director of the Company exercised options to
purchase 12,500 shares of common stock at $1.344 per share.

NOTE 7- INCOME TAXES
For the six month period ended December 31, 2002 and 2001, the Company
paid $0 and $0 for current income taxes and incurred a tax
expense/(benefit) for deferred income taxes of $352,465 and
$(1,206,323), respectively.
NOTE 8 - EARNINGS (LOSS) PER SHARE
The computations of earnings (loss) per share and diluted earnings per
share amounts are based upon the weighted average number of outstanding
common shares during the periods, plus, when their effect is dilutive,
additional shares assuming the exercise of certain vested stock
options, reduced by the number of shares which could be purchased from
the proceeds from the exercise of the stock options assuming they were
exercised. Diluted earnings per share for the six month period ended
December 31, 2001, was not presented as its effect was anti-dilutive.
The weighted average common shares and common equivalent shares
outstanding for the six month period ended December 31, 2002 and 2001
for purposes of calculating earnings per share was as follows:
December 31, December 31,
2002 2001
__________ ___________
Weighted average common shares
outstanding used in basic
earnings per share for the six
months ending 4,738,858 4,732,608
Effect of dilutive stock options 65,028 -
__________ ___________
Weighted average common shares
and potential dilutive common
equivalent shares outstanding
used in dilutive earnings
per share 4,803,886 4,732,608
__________ ___________
At December 31, 2002 there were 480,000 unexercised stock options, of
which 480,000 were held by officers and directors of the Company at
prices ranging from $3.94 to $5.00 per share that were not included in
the computation of earnings per share because the effect is anti-
dilutive.
NOTE 9 - GOING CONCERN
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared in conformity
with generally accepted accounting principles of the United States which
contemplate continuation of the Company as a going concern. However,
the Company has current liabilities in excess of current assets which
raises substantial doubt about the ability of the Company to continue as
a going concern. In this regard, management has accelerated efforts to
introduce new products, has executed plans and actions that reduce
expenses through direct labor and overhead cost cuts, and has
implemented significant reductions to selling and general and
administrative expenses. Management believes it could raise additional
funds through debt or equity financing. There is no assurance that the
Company will be successful in raising this additional capital or
achieving sustained profitable operations. The financial statements do
not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of these
uncertainties.

Management's Discussion and Analysis of Results of Operations
and Financial Condition
Results of Operations.
The operating income for the three months ended December 31, 2002 was
$881,818 or $.18 per share and compares to the operating loss of
$(2,058,361) or $(.43) per share for the three months ended December 31,
2001. The net income for the three months ended December 31, 2002 was
$497,708 or $.10 per share as compared to a net loss for the three months
ended December 31, 2001 of $(1,417,651) or $(.30) per share. The net
income for the six months ended December 31,2002 was $701,911 or $.15 per
share as compared to a net loss for the six months ended December 31, 2001
of $(1,924,293) or $(.41) per share.
Net sales were $12,941,227 for the second quarter of Fiscal 2003. Net
sales were $6,553,076 for the second quarter of Fiscal 2002. During the
second quarter of Fiscal 2003, unit volumes doubled from the same period
of the prior year, with sales volume for three months ended December 31,
2002 at 101 units compared to 50 units for the prior year. Fiscal 2003
net sales for the six months ended December 31, 2002 were $25,016,213,
compared to net sales of $14,930,387 for the same six months period of the
prior year.
Gross margin on sales for the three months ended December 31, 2002 was
$2,370,374 as compared to the gross margin of $(595,201) for the three
months ended December 31, 2001. Gross margin for the six months ended
December 31, 2002 was $4,276,326 compared to the gross margin of
$(216,597) for the same period of the previous year. The improvement in
margin resulted from improved unit sales for the period, and improved
product sales mix.
Selling expenses were $1,082,315 for the three months ended December 31,
2002 as compared to $987,379 for the three months ended December 31, 2001.
Increased selling expense resulted from higher sales salaries and
commissions, directly associated with the improvement in net sales from
the same period for the previous year.
General and administrative expenses were $406,241 for the three months
ended December 31, 2002 compared to $475,781 for the three months ended
December 31, 2001. A decrease in executive salaries during Fiscal 2003,
when the Company's CEO took a temporary reduction in pay, created the
savings as compared to the same period for the prior year.
Interest expense for the three months ended December 31, 2002 was $214,475
as compared to $262,516 for the three months ended December 31, 2001.
Other non-operating (income)/expense for the three months December 31,
2002 was $(1,389) as compared to $(5,135) for the three months ended
December 31, 2001.

Financial Condition.
The Company's summary cash flows for the six months ended December 31,
2002 are:
Net cash provided by operating activities $ 2,016,601
Net cash used in investing activities (784,215)
Net cash used in financing activities (385,642)
Net increase in cash $ 846,744
This net increase in cash and cash equivalents compares to a net decrease
of $351,269 for the six months ended December 31, 2001.
Cash used in the six months ended December 31, 2002 to acquire additional
property, plant, and equipment (investing activity) amounted to $793,891
which was invested in tooling changes to the new 48' Express Cruiser, a
new style 38' fish boat deck, and other miscellaneous tooling projects.
Cash used by financing activities were largely due to principal reductions
of long term debt.
The first six months of fiscal 2003 shows significant improvement in sales
and profit. This improvement provides the Company with a basis for
expecting continued success in the remaining six months of this fiscal
year. Continued success will provide sufficient cash flow to meet the
Company's needs and obligations.
