Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (unaudited)

NOTE A—SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

        The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial information and in accordance with instructions for Form 10-Q as found in Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, such consolidated financial statements do not include all of the information and disclosures required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of the results of operations for the periods covered have been reflected in the statements. The accompanying consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and notes thereto for the year ended February 28, 2003 included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K.

        The consolidated financial statements included the accounts of the Company and its majority owned subsidiaries after elimination of all significant intercompany accounts and transactions. Certain prior period balances have been reclassified to conform to the current period presentation.

        Assets and liabilities of foreign subsidiaries are translated using the exchange rate in effect at the end of the period. Revenues and expenses are translated using the average of the exchange rates in effect during the period. Translation adjustments and transaction gains and losses related to long-term intercompany transactions are accumulated as a separate component of shareholders' equity. The Company has a subsidiary in the U.K., which is not material, and uses the British pound as its functional currency.

        The Company reported its Mexican subsidiary on the basis of the functional currency being the U.S. dollar, effective January 1, 1997, as over 90% of the subsidiary's sales and purchases were with the parent with accounts receivable and accounts payable settled in U.S. dollars. The Mexican operations were substantially shut down in the third quarter of fiscal 2003 and the cumulative translation losses were recognized as a charge against income in that fiscal year.

NOTE B—ADOPTION OF RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

        In November 2002, the FASB issued FASB Interpretation No. 45 ("FIN 45"), "Guarantor's Accounting and Disclosure Requirements for Guarantees, Including Indirect Guarantees and Indebtedness of Others". FIN 45 elaborates on the disclosures to be made by the guarantor in its interim and annual financial statements about its obligations under certain guarantees that it has issued. It also requires that a guarantor recognize, at the inception of a guarantee, a liability for the fair value of the obligation undertaken in issuing the guarantee. The initial recognition and measurement provisions of this interpretation are applicable on a prospective basis to guarantees issued or modified after December 31, 2002; while the provisions of the disclosure requirements are effective for financial statements of interim or annual reports ending after December 15, 2002. The Company adopted the disclosure provisions of FIN 45 during the fourth quarter of fiscal 2003 and such adoption did not have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements. The recognition provisions of FIN 45 are not expected to have a material adverse impact on the Company's consolidated results of operations or financial position.

        In January 2003, the FASB issued FASB Interpretation No. 46 ("FIN 46"), "Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities". In general, a variable interest entity is a corporation, partnership, trust, or any other legal structure used for business purposes that either (a) does not have equity investors with voting rights or (b) has equity investors that do not provide sufficient financial resources for the entity to support its activities. FIN 46 requires certain variable interest entities to be consolidated by the primary beneficiary of the entity if the investors do not have the characteristics of a controlling

7



financial interest or do not have sufficient equity at risk for the entity to finance its activities without additional subordinated financial support from other parties. The consolidation requirements of FIN 46 apply immediately to variable interest entities created after January 31, 2003. The consolidation requirements apply to other entities in the first fiscal year or interim period beginning after December 15, 2003. Certain of the disclosure requirements apply in all financial statements issued after January 31, 2003, regardless of when the variable interest entity was established. Since the Company currently has identified no variable interest entities, management expects that the adoption of the provisions of FIN 46 will not have a material impact on the Company's consolidated results of operations or financial position.

        In May 2003, the FASB issued Statement No. 150, "Accounting for Certain Financial Instruments with Characteristics of both Liabilities and Equity". SFAS No. 150 requires three types of freestanding financial instruments to be classified as liabilities in statements of financial position. One type is mandatorily redeemable shares, which the issuing company is obligated to buy back in exchange for cash or other assets. A second type, which includes put options and forward purchase contracts, involves instruments that do or may require the issuer to buy back some of its shares in exchange for cash or other assets. The third type of instruments are obligations that can be settled with shares, the monetary value of which is fixed, tied solely or predominately to a variable such as a market index, or varies inversely with the value of the issuer's shares. The majority of the guidance in SFAS No. 150 is effective for all financial instruments entered into or modified after May 31, 2003, and otherwise is effective at the beginning of the first interim period beginning after June 15, 2003. In accordance with SFAS No. 150, the Company adopted this standard on September 1, 2003, which did not have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial position and results of operations. During fiscal 2003, the Company issued $100,000 of redeemable common stock in exchange for inventory. During the first quarter ended May 31, 2003, the stock was redeemed at the option of the holder for $100,000 cash.

        There were no other recently issued accounting pronouncements with delayed effective dates that would currently have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial position and results of operations.

NOTE E—LINE OF CREDIT

        At August 31, 2003, the Company has a $9,500,000 credit facility with a bank. The interest rate on the line of credit is a floating LIBOR rate (3.6% at August 31, 2003) based on a ratio of debt to EBITDA, as defined. The weighted average interest rate during the six months ended August 31, 2003 and the year ended February 28, 2003 was 3.75% and 3.4%. The average amount and maximum amount outstanding were $7,791,000 and $8,801,000, respectively, during the six months ended August 31, 2003, and $9,248,000 and $9,524,000, respectively, during fiscal year 2003. Borrowings under the line of credit are limited by eligible accounts receivable, inventory and real estate, as defined, and includes a commitment fee of 0.25% for the unused portion. As of August 31, 2003, the outstanding balance on the line of credit was $5,457,000 and the available amount for borrowing was $4,043,000.

        The line of credit agreement contains affirmative and negative covenants, including requirements related to tangible net worth and debt service coverage. Additionally, dividend payments, capital expenditures and acquisitions have certain restrictions. Substantially all of the Company's retained earnings are restricted based upon these covenants. As of February 28, 2003, the Company was not in compliance with the minimum debt service ratio, the senior funded debt to EBITDA ratio (due to the third quarter adjustment and write-off of inventories, equipment and other assets as a result of the internal reorganization and closure of three facilities) and additional indebtedness. Subsequent to February 28, 2003, the bank waived those covenant violations. As of August 31, 2003 subject to the waivers, the Company is in compliance with its loan covenants.

        The line of credit expired on July 1, 2003 but was extended until December 1, 2003. The outstanding amount under this line is classified as a current liability in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets. On September 26, 2003, the Company was informed by its lender that the lenders loan committee had approved the expansion of the credit facility from $9,500,000 to $12,000,000. In addition to the $12,000,000 line of credit, the Company's lender has agreed to advance $3,500,000 of short term (180 day) financing to allow the Company to consider methods of acquisition of real estate currently under lease by the Company. The interest rate to be applied on the new line of credit will be a variable rate based upon a ratio of Senior Funded Debt to EBITDA (Earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization). The initial rate is anticipated to be LIBOR plus 2.0%, but can increase or decrease in a range of 1.75% to 2.50% spread over LIBOR. The new agreement is to be for two years. Borrowings will be based on eligible accounts receivable and inventory and appraised values of certain equipment and Company owned real property. It is expected that the new line will be in place by November 15, 2003, pending completion of certain appraisals. The Company is not anticipating any problems closing on the loan.

NOTE G—SHAREHOLDERS' EQUITY

Earnings Per Share

        Basic earnings per share is computed by dividing income available to common shareholders by the weighted average number of shares outstanding during each period. Shares issued during the period are weighted for the portion of the period that they were outstanding. Diluted earnings per share is calculated in a manner consistent with that of basic earnings per share while giving effect to all dilutive potential common shares that were outstanding during the period.

Stock-Based Compensation Plans

        The Company has an incentive stock option plan whereby total options to purchase 600,000 shares may be granted to key employees at a price not less than fair market value at the time the options are granted and are exercisable beginning on the first anniversary of the grant date for a period not to exceed ten years. Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123 encourages, but does not require companies to record compensation cost for stock-based employee compensation plans at fair value. The Company has chosen to continue to account for stock-based compensation using the intrinsic value method prescribed in Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25, "Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees", and related Interpretations. Accordingly, compensation cost for stock options is measured as the excess, if any, of the quoted market price of the Company's stock at the date of the grant over the amount an employee must pay to acquire the stock. The option price of all the Company's stock options is equal to the market value of the stock at the grant date. The Company granted 6,000 and 11,000 stock options during the quarters ended August 31, 2003 and 2002, respectively.

11



        Had compensation cost been determined based upon the fair value at the grant date for awards under the stock option plan consistent with the methodology prescribed under SFAS No. 123, the effect on the Company's pro forma net income and net income per share would have been as follows:

Diluted—pro forma   $ 0.20   $ 0.07   $ 0.36   $ 0.14  

        The fair value of stock options used to compute proforma net income applicable to common shareholders and earnings per share disclosures is the estimated present value at grant date using the Black Scholes option pricing model with the following weighted average assumptions for the three and six months ended August 31, 2003 and 2002, respectively: expected volatility of 75% and 60%; a risk free interest rate of 3.5% and 4.5%; expected lives of 3.0 and 3.5 years; and a dividend yield of 0% for both periods.

Stock Repurchase Program

        The Company has a stock repurchase program, pursuant to which it is authorized to repurchase up to 588,000 shares of the Company's common stock in the open market. As part of this program, the Company repurchased 125,000 and 7,000 shares of common stock through the six months ended August 31, 2003, and 2002, respectively.

Net sales

        Consolidated net sales decreased $492,000 and $298,000 for the three and six months ended August 31, 2003 as compared to the same period ended August 31, 2002. CRT division sales decreased $199,000 and $335,000 for the three and six-month comparative periods ended August 31, 2003. The wholesale division sales decreased $293,000 for the three-month comparative period and increased $37,000 for the six-month comparative periods ended August 31, 2003.

        The CRT segment sales included net increases from the Company's growing monitor division. Sales increased $1,166,000 and $1,653,000 for the three and six months ended August 31, 2003 over the same period ended August 31, 2002. These increases in revenues are attributed primarily to the Company's Display Systems operations for sales of projection simulation displays and to the Lexel operation including radar displays. Lexel's revenues, while higher than the comparative periods a year ago is down slightly from the first quarter of fiscal 2004. One of its major contracts is coming to completion

13



and by the end of the third quarter of fiscal 2004 will no longer be a component of sales. This contract provided $900,000 of revenue in the second quarter ended August 31, 2003. Lexel's other product lines, including direct view storage tubes, maintain significant backlogs.

        There were offsetting declines within the monitor division of $449,000 and $1,053,000 for the three and six month comparative periods due to the closure of two locations, MegaScan and Wolcott during fiscal 2003. XKD's product line of cockpit displays provided an increase for the six-month comparative period of $360,000, but was down for the three month comparative periods by $123,000.

        The component parts division reflects a decline in sales of $222,000 and $125,000 for the three and six months ended August 31, 2003 as compared to a year ago. However, volume before intercompany eliminations was relatively flat for the comparative periods.

        The entertainment division sales continue to reflect declines of in-warranty replacement tubes to major television set distributors. Sales in this division declined $194,000 and $432,000 for the three and six month comparative periods.

        Declines in the data display division of $949,000 and $1,431,000 for the three and six month comparative periods continue to reflect the continued sluggish replacement market for cathode ray tubes. These declines are not attributed to the loss of any particular customers, but rather a reflection of customer decisions to purchase new monitors with updated products and technologies instead of repairing older tubes.

        The wholesale parts division sales declined for the quarter ended August 31, 2003 as compared to a year ago, but was relatively flat for the six month comparative periods. Sales to distributors of consumer electronic parts were down slightly for the comparative periods but sales under the distribution sales agreements of parts and accessories for Applica and Norelco product lines increased.

Gross margins

        Consolidated gross margins increased from 29.0% to 34.7% for the quarter and from 30.7% to 33.7% for the six months ended August 31, 2003 as compared to August 31, 2002. CRT segment margins increased from 25.6% to 31.7% and from 27.3% to 30.1% for the three and six month comparative periods. The wholesale parts segment margins increased from 41.3% to 45.9% and from 43.5% to 47.2% for the same comparative periods.

        CRT segment margins were impacted by a variety of factors. Comparable margins of the prior year's three and six months were negatively impacted by the downsizing of the Mexican operations which was completed by the end of fiscal 2003. There was a significant volume decrease with continued overhead costs during that period which was not continued through this fiscal year. Additionally, quarter and six month margins for the period ended August 31, 2003 reflect a reduction of higher cost Mexican tube inventory that is being replaced by lower cost product purchased overseas. Additionally several CRT locations with higher volume were able to achieve these increases without adding comparable fixed overhead and as such margins are generally improved.

        The wholesale parts segment margins improved primarily as a result of the distribution agreements for Applica and Norelco. The revenues for these products include a handling charge and shipping revenue which carry significant profit margins. Offsetting expenses for these product lines is a component of selling, general and administrative expenses.

Operating expenses

        Operating expenses as a percentage of sales increased from 23.8% to 24.9% for the quarter ended August 31, 2003 as compared to August 31, 2002 and decreased from 26.1% to 24.8 for the same six

14



month comparative period. CRT segment selling expenses decreased $791,000 and the wholesale parts segment increased $208,000.

        CRT segment decreases include decreases of $741,000 due to the elimination of three locations, MegaScan, Wolcott and Mexico in fiscal 2003.

        Increases to the wholesale parts segment include increases to delivery charges, warehouse rent and labor that is incurred in direct correlation to the increase in volume associated with the distribution agreement revenues.

Interest expense

        Interest expense decreased $133,000 and $65,000 for the three and six months ended August 31, 2003 as compared to the same period a year ago. The Company maintains various debt agreements with different interest rates, most of which are based on the prime rate or LIBOR. Overall debt decreased $5,068,000 during the comparable periods, however some lower interest rate debt was replaced with slightly higher rate debt during the comparable period.

Income taxes

        The effective tax rate for the six months ended August 31, 2003 as compared to August 31, 2002 is 38.0% as compared to 37.4%.

Foreign currency translation

        In the third quarter of fiscal 2003 the Company closed its Mexico operations. Prior to this, the Company's Mexican subsidiary reported on the basis of the functional currency as being the US dollar and any exchange gains or losses due to the actual exchange of pesos and US dollars were reflected in the Company's income statement. There were no significant translation gains or losses related to the Mexican subsidiary for the six months ended August 31, 2002.

        Gains or losses resulting from the transactions with its UK subsidiary are reported in current operations while currency translation adjustments are recognized in a separate component of shareholders' equity. There were no significant gains or losses recognized in either period related to the UK subsidiary.

Liquidity and capital resources

        As of August 31, 2003, the Company had total cash and cash equivalents of $1,189,000. The Company's working capital was $27,068,000 and $26,739,000 at August 31, 2003 and February 28, 2003.

        Cash provided by operations for the six months ended August 31, 2003 was $4,670,000 as compared to $1,609,000 for the same period a year ago. Net income for the six months ended August 31, 2003 adjusted for non-cash items provided cash of $2,482,000. Decreases in accounts receivable, inventories and prepaid expenses provided cash of $2,298,000 for the six months ended August 31, 2003. During the six months ended August 31, 2002, operating cash flows were provided primarily by net income adjusted for non-cash items of $1,594,000. Decreases to accounts receivable and prepaids provided cash of $75,000 while offsetting increases to inventory used cash of $821,000.

        The decrease in accounts receivable is a function of better collection efforts and the billing and collection of certain contract revenues. The decrease of inventory of $616,000 was attributed to the timing of purchases related to contract revenues and overseas purchasing requirements. The increase in accounts payable and accrued liabilities reflect the effects of tax accruals for the quarter.

        Investing activities used $328,000 in the first six months of fiscal 2004. Included in this were purchases of property plant and equipment of $375,000.

15


        Financing activities used cash of $5,533,000 for the six months ended August 31, 2003. Cash was used to pay down existing debt of $4,684,000 and to repurchase common stock for $813,000 under the repurchase program. Additionally the Company redeemed $100,000 of common stock previously issued for the purchase of inventory.

        In September 2003 the Company reached an agreement with its primary lender to provide for a new two year revolver line of credit in the amount of $12,000,000 to replace the existing $9,500,000 line. In addition to the $12,000,000 line of credit, the lender has agreed to advance the Company $3,500,000 of short term bridge financing to allow the Company to consider methods of acquisition of real estate currently under lease by the Company.

        The agreed upon interest rate to be applied on the new revolver will be variable based upon the ratio of senior funded debt to EBITDA. The initial rate is anticipated to be LIBOR plus 2% but can increase or decrease in a range of 1.75% to 2.50% spread over LIBOR rates. The new agreement is expected to be in place in November 2003 upon the completion of certain loan documentation and appraisals. Additionally, the Company made an agreement with another of its lenders to replace its current $2,500,000 term note with a secured one year line of credit in the amount of $2,750,000. The interest rate on the new line will be prime plus one percent and will be limited to available borrowings based on receivables and inventory. The new agreement will be in place in November 2003.

Critical Accounting Policies

        Management's Discussion and Analysis of Results of Operations and Financial Condition are based upon the Company's consolidated financial statements. These financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. These principles require the use of estimates and assumptions that affect amounts reported and disclosed in the financial statements and related notes. The accounting policies that may involve a higher degree of judgments, estimates, and complexity include reserves on inventories, revenue recognition, the allowance for bad debts and warranty reserves. The Company uses the following methods and assumptions in determining its estimates:

Reserves on inventories

        Reserves on inventories result in a charge to operations when the estimated net realizable value declines below cost. Management regularly reviews the Company's investment in inventories for declines in value and establishes reserves when it is apparent that the expected realizable value of the inventory falls below its original cost. The age of the inventory is not as significant as is the projected demand for CRTs. Management is able to identify consumer buying trends, such as size and application, well in advance of supplying replacement CRTs. Thus, the Company is able to adjust inventory-stocking levels according to the projected demand. The average life of a CRT is five to seven years, at which time the Company's replacement market develops. These reviews include observations of product development trends of the OEM's, new products being marketed, and technological advances relative to the product capabilities of the Company's existing inventories.

Revenue Recognition

        Revenue from product sales is recognized when goods are shipped. The Company does not offer rights of return to customers; however, it does offer one and two-year limited warranties on certain products.

        Revenue from contracts that are long-term in nature is recognized by the percentage of completion method. Profit estimates are revised periodically based upon actual costs incurred. Any expected losses identified on contracts are recognized immediately. Revenue related to short-term contracts is

16



recognized upon shipment of product, which is typically mandated by set delivery dates in the related contract.

Allowance for bad debts

        The allowance for bad debts is determined by reviewing known customer exposures and applying historical credit loss experience to the current receivable portfolio with consideration given to the current condition of the economy, assessment of the financial position of the creditors and overall trends in past due accounts compared to established thresholds. The company monitors credit exposure and assesses the adequacy of the allowance for bad debts on a regular basis.

Warranty reserves

        The warranty reserve is determined by recording a specific reserve for known warranty issues and a general reserve based on historical claims experience. Actual claims incurred could differ from the original estimates, requiring adjustments to the reserve.

Other Accounting Policies

        Other loss contingencies are recorded as liabilities when it is probable that a liability has been incurred and the amount of the loss is reasonably estimable. Disclosure is required when there is a reasonable possibility that the ultimate loss will exceed the recorded provision. Contingent liabilities are often resolved over long time periods. Estimating probable losses requires analysis of multiple factors that often depend on judgments about potential actions by third parties.

Forward-Looking Information

        This report contains forward-looking statements and information that is based on management's beliefs, as well as assumptions made by, and information currently available to management. When used in this document, the words "anticipate", "believe", "estimate", "intends", "will", and "expect" and similar expressions are intended to identify forward-looking statements. Such statements involve a number of risks and uncertainties. Among the factors that could cause actual results to differ materially are the following: business conditions, rapid or unexpected technological changes, product development, inventory risks due to shifts in product demand, competition, domestic and foreign government relations, fluctuations in foreign exchange rates, rising costs for components or unavailability of components, the timing of orders booked, lender relationships, and the risk factors listed from time to time in the Company's reports filed with the Commission.

17



ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURE ABOUT MARKET RISK

        The Company's primary market risks include fluctuations in interest rates and variability in interest rate spread relationships, such as prime to LIBOR spreads. Approximately $20,628,000 of outstanding debt at August 31, 2003 related to long-term indebtedness under variable rate debt. Interest on the outstanding balance of this debt will be charged based on a variable rate related to the prime rate or the LIBOR rate. Both rate bases are incremented for margins specified in their agreements. Thus, the Company's interest rate is subject to market risk in the form of fluctuations in interest rates. The effect of a hypothetical one percentage point increase across all maturities of variable rate debt would result in an decrease of approximately $206,000 in pre-tax net income assuming no further changes in the amount of borrowings subject to variable rate interest from amounts outstanding at August 31, 2003. The Company does not trade in derivative financial instruments.

        The Company has a subsidiary in the U.K., which is not material, but uses the British pound as its functional currency. Due to its limited operations outside of the U.S., the Company's exposure to changes in foreign currency exchange rates between the U.S. dollar and foreign currencies or to weakening economic conditions in foreign markets is not expected to significantly impact the Company's financial position.
