NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(UNAUDITED)

NOTE 1 - BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial state-
ments have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted ac-
counting principles for interim financial information and with the
instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accord
ingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes
required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete
financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments
(consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a
fair presentation have been included. Operating results for the nine
month period ended August 31, 2002 are not necessarily indicative of
the results that may be expected for the year ended November 30,
2002. For further information, refer to the consolidated financial
statements and footnotes thereto included in the Company's annual
report on Form 10-K for the year ended November 30, 2001.

NOTE 2 - ORGANIZATION AND DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS

CCA Industries, Inc. ("CCA") was incorporated in the State of Dela
ware on March 25, 1983.

CCA manufactures and distributes health and beauty aid products.

CCA has several wholly-owned subsidiaries (CCA Cosmetics, Inc., CCA
Labs, Inc., Berdell, Inc., Nutra Care Corporation, and CCA Online
Industries, Inc.), all of which are currently inactive.

In March of 1998 CCA acquired 80% of the newly organized Fragrance
Corporation of America, Ltd. which manufactured and distributed
perfume products. In 1999, the Company adopted a formal plan to
discontinue the operations of the subsidiary. As of November 30,
2001, the Company had completed its plan of dissolution.

NOTE 3 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Principles of Consolidation:

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of CCA and
its wholly-owned subsidiaries (collectively the "Company"). The
minority interest in the discontinued subsidiary is no longer re
flected in the financial statements. All significant inter-company
accounts and transactions have been eliminated.

CCA INDUSTRIES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

(UNAUDITED)





NOTE 3 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)

Use of Estimates:

The consolidated financial statements include the use of estimates,
which management believes are reasonable. The process of preparing
financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting
principles requires the use of estimates and assumptions regarding
certain types of assets, liabilities, revenues, and expenses. Such
estimates primarily relate to unsettled transactions and events as of
the date of the financial statements. Accordingly, upon settlement,
actual results may differ from estimated amounts.

Short-Term Investments and Marketable Securities:

Short-term investments and marketable securities consist of corporate
and government bonds and equity securities. The Company has classi
fied its investments as Available-for-Sale securities. Accordingly,
such investments are reported at fair market value, with the resul
tant unrealized gains and losses reported as a separate component of
shareholders' equity.

Statements of Cash Flows Disclosure:

For purposes of the statement of cash flows, the Company considers
all highly liquid instruments purchased with an original maturity of
less than three months to be cash equivalents.

Inventories:

Inventories are stated at the lower of cost (first-in, first-out) or
market.

Product returns are recorded in inventory when they are received at
the lower of their original cost or market, as appropriate. Obsolete
inventory is written off and its value is removed from inventory at
the time its obsolescence is determined.

NOTE 3 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)

Property and Equipment and Depreciation and Amortization

Property and equipment are stated at cost. The Company charges to
expense repairs and maintenance items, while major improvements and
betterments are capitalized. When the Company sells or otherwise
disposes of property and equipment items, the cost and related
accumulated depreciation are removed from the respective accounts and
any gain or loss is included in earnings.

Depreciation and amortization are provided on the straight-line
method over the following estimated useful lives or lease terms of
the assets:

Machinery and equipment 7-10 Years
Furniture and fixtures 5-7 Years
Tools, dies and masters 2-7 Years
Transportation equipment 7 Years
Leasehold improvements 7-10 Years or life
of lease, whichever is
shorter

Intangible Assets:

Intangible assets are stated at cost. Patents and trademarks are
amortized on the straight-line method over a period of 17 years.

Financial Instruments:

The carrying value of assets and liabilities considered financial
instruments approximate their respective fair value.

Income Taxes:

Income tax expense includes federal and state taxes currently payable
and deferred taxes arising from temporary differences between income
for financial reporting and income tax purposes.

Tax Credits:

Tax credits, when present, are accounted for using the flow-through
method as a reduction of income taxes in the years utilized.

NOTE 3 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)

Earnings Per Common Share:

The Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards
("SFAS") No. 128, "Earnings Per Share" in 1998. Basic earnings per
share is calculated using the average number of shares of common
stock outstanding during the year. Diluted earnings per share is
computed on the basis of the average number of common shares out
standing plus the effect of outstanding stock options using the
"treasury stock method" and convertible debentures using the "if-
converted" method. Common stock equivalents consist of stock op-
tions. On March 30, 2001, the Company repriced all of the outstand-
ing stock options to $.50.

Revenue Recognition:

The Company recognizes net sales upon shipment of merchandise. Net
sales comprise gross revenues less expected returns, trade discounts,
customer allowances and various sales incentives. Although no legal
right of return exists between the customer and the Company, it is an
industry-wide practice to accept returns from customers. The Com-
pany, therefore, records a reserve for returns equal to its gross
profit on its historical percentage of returns on its last five
months sales.

Accounts Receivable:

Accounts receivable with credit balances have been included as a
current liability in "Accounts payable and accrued liabilities" in
the accompanying balance sheet.

The Company uses the allowance method to account for uncollectible
accounts receivable. Accounts receivable are presented net of an
allowance for doubtful accounts of $410,707 and $391,806 as of August
31, 2002 and November 30, 2001, respectively.

Shipping and Handling Costs:

The Company presents shipping and handling costs as part of Selling,
general and administrative expense and not as part of Cost of sales.
Freight costs were $1,605,771 and $1,873,027 for the nine months
ended August 31, 2002 and 2001, respectively.

Comprehensive Income:

The Company adopted SFAS #130, Comprehensive Income, which considers
the Company's financial performance in that it includes all changes
in equity during the period from transactions and events from non-
owner sources.

Reclassifications

Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform to the
2002 presentation.

NOTE 7 - DEFERRED ADVERTISING

In accordance with APB 28 Interim Financial Reporting the Company
expenses its advertising and related costs proportionately over the
interim periods based on its total expected costs per its various
advertising programs. Consequently a deferral of $944,111 is accord
ingly reflected in the balance sheet for the interim period. This
deferral is the result of the Company's $7,500,000 media budget for
the year which contemplates lower spending in the 4th quarter than in
the other three quarters; as well as the Company's Co-op advertising
commitments which also anticipates a lower expenditure in the 4th
quarter.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS


To the Board of Directors and
Shareholders of CCA Industries. Inc.

We have reviewed the accompanying consolidated balance sheet of CCA Industries,
Inc. (the "Company") and its subsidiaries as of August 31, 2002, and the
related consolidated statements of income for the three months and nine months
ended August 31, 2002 and August 31, 2001, respectively, and the consolidated
statements of cash flows for the nine months ended August 31, 2002 and August
31, 2001. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's
management.

We conducted our review in accordance with standards established by the
American Institute of Certified Public Accountants. A review of interim
financial information consists principally of applying analytical procedures to
financial data and making inquiries of persons responsible for financial and
accounting matters. It is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted
in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards, the objective of
which is the expression of an opinion regarding the financial statements taken
as a whole. Accordingly, we do not express such an opinion.

Based on our review, we are not aware of any material modifications that should
be made to the accompanying consolidated interim financial statements for them
to be in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United
States of America.

We previously audited, in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted
in the United States of America, the consolidated balance sheet as of November
30, 2001, and the related consolidated statements of income, shareholders'
equity, and cash flows for the year then ended (not presented herein), and in
our report dated February 1, 2002, we express an unqualified opinion on those
consolidated financial statements. In our opinion, the information set forth
in the accompanying consolidated balance sheet as of November 30, 2001, is
fairly stated in all material respects in relation to the consolidated balance
sheet from which it has been derived.

CCA INDUSTRIES, INC.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF RESULTS
OF OPERATIONS AND FINANCIAL CONDITION

(UNAUDITED)



For the three month period ended August 31, 2002, the Company had revenues
of $11,511,314 and net income of $722,822 after a provision of taxes of
$453,533. This represents a 13.8% and 138.7% increase in revenue and net
income, respectively, compared to the prior year. Sales returns and allowances
have remained the same. Gross margins increased from 66.4% to 68.7%. Selling,
general and administrative (SG&A) expenses increased from $3.5 million to $4.0
million. In November 2001, in accordance with GAAP, the Company reclassified
certain advertising expenditures as a reduction of sales rather than an adver-
tising expense. As a result, last year's quarter and year-to-date ending
August 31, 2001 have been reclassified to reflect the adoption of EITF 90-16
GAAP standard.

For the three month period ending August 31, 2002, advertising, cooperative
and promotional allowances increased to $2.54 million from $2.48 million for
the quarter ended August 31, 2001. Because sales increased, advertising
expenditures decreased to 22.3% of sales compared to 24.7% last year. Since
both co-op advertising and promotional commitments have a material effect on
the Company's operation, the Company attempts to anticipate its advertising
and promotional commitments as a percent of gross sales in order to control
its effect on its net income in accordance with APB Interim Financial
Reporting, the Company expenses its advertising and related costs
proportionately over the interim periods based on its total expected per its
various advertising programs. Consequently, a deferral of $774,000 media
expense and $170,000 for co-op is reflected in the balance sheet. This
deferral will be fully expensed by year-end. The deferral is the result of
the Company's current $7.5 million media budget and $4.0 million co-op for the
entire year, which is predicated on substantially lower spending in the third
and fourth quarters. Specifically for the nine months period, the Company
spent approximately $6.4 million for media advertising and $3.2 million for
co-op advertising.

For the nine month period ended August 31, 2002, the Company had revenue of
$35,070,855 and a net income of $2,240,871 after a provision of income taxes of
$1,507,873. In the prior year's period, the Company had revenues of
$33,156,765 and net income of $1,778,751 after a provision for income taxes
of $1,151,331. This represents a revenue increase of 5.8% and a net income
increase of 26%. Gross margins increased from 63.6% last year to 66.3% as a
result of more efficient cost controls.

Advertising, co-op and promotional expenditures were $7,658,588 as compared
to $7,094,442 for the prior nine-month period . Advertising expenditures
were 22% of sales as compared to 21.6% last year. Research and development
expenditures were $412,264. Research and development for the prior year were
$578,718.

CCA INDUSTRIES, INC.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF RESULTS

OF OPERATIONS AND FINANCIAL CONDITION

(UNAUDITED)



The Company's financial position as of August 31, 2002 consists of assets
of $25,548,872 and liabilities of $7,433,446. Current assets are $16,095,645
and current liabilities are $6,930,790, a working capital ratio of 2.3:1. This
Company's actual cash position decreased $548,497 predominately because the
Company used excess cash from operations to invest in $3.7 million in addi-
tional marketable securities and treasury stock. The marketable securities
consist of $969,085 reflected as current assets and $8,069,613 reflected as
other assets. Other factors that reduced cash were seasonal factors, such as
the increase in deferred advertising for which the financial statements
reflect a deferral of $944,000 pursuant to provisions of APB Interim Financial
Reporting Regulations, acquisition of equipment of $442,000, and an increase
in accounts receivable of $1,401,000. The increase in accounts receivable is
predominately due to the large sales increase from the third quarter. Factors
that increased cash flow include an increase in accounts payable and taxes of
$2,894,000 and a decrease in prepaid expenses and inventory of $592,000 and
income net of noncash items of $2,516,000.
