NOTE 1 -BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial
statements have been prepared in accordance with generally
accepted accounting principles for interim financial information
and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of
Regulation S-X. Accordingly, 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 six month

results that may be expected for the year ended November 30,
2003. 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, 2002.

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 classified its investments as Available-for-Sale
securities. Accordingly, such investments are reported at fair
market value, with the resultant 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 con
siders 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 improve
ments 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 5-7 Years
Furniture and fixtures 3-10 Years
Tools, dies and masters 3 Years
Transportation equipment 5 Years
Leasehold improvements 4-10 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 pur
poses.

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 weighted average number
of common shares outstanding 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 options.

Revenue Recognition:

The Company recognizes sales upon shipment of merchandise. Net
sales are comprised of gross sales 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 Company, 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
$1,047,106 and $695,824 as of May 31, 2003 and November 30,
2002, 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 $1,672,134 and $1,057,947
for the six months ended May 31, 2003 and 2002, respectively.

Comprehensive Income:

The Company adopted SFAS #130, Comprehensive Income, which
considers the Company's financial performance in that it in
cludes 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 2003 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 $2,573,105
is accordingly reflected in the balance sheet for the interim period.
This deferral is the result of the Company's media and co-op budget
for the year which contemplates lower spending in the 4th quarter
than in the other three quarters.

The table below sets forth the calculation:

$323,994 $187,311

NOTE 10 -NOTES PAYABLE AND SUBORDINATED DEBENTURES

The Company has an available line of credit of $7,000,000.
Interest is calculated on the outstanding balance at prime
minus 1% or Libor plus 150 basis points. The line of credit
is collateralized by all the Company's assets. The Company
was not utilizing their available credit line at May 31, 2003
or November 30, 2002.

On August 1, 2000, the Company repurchased (pursuant to a
tender offer) 278,328 shares of its outstanding common stock
by issuing subordinated debentures equal to $2 per share,
which accrue interest at 6% and are due to mature on August 1,
2005. The interest is payable semi-annually.

NOTE 11 - COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

Litigation

The Company has been named as a defendant in 10 lawsuits
alleging that the plaintiffs were injured as a result of their
purchasing and ingesting a diet suppressant containing
phenylpropanolamine (PPA), which the Company utilized as its
active ingredient in its products prior to November 2000. The
lawsuits brought against the Company are for unspecified
amounts of compensatory and exemplary damages.

The Company is insured for three of the 10 cases. CCA has not
renewed the product liability policy covering possible additional
lawsuits that might commence against the Company in
connection with PPA. Outside counsel has advised CCA that as
a general matter the PPA cases are defensible, and the Company
plans to vigorously defend its positions. However, there can
be no assurances the current PPA litigations will not have a
material adverse effect on the Company's operations.

Dividends

In January 2003, the Company announced its first dividend of
$0.12 per share payable to all holders of the Company's common
stock, $0.06 payable to shareholders of record on April 1,
2003 and $0.06 payable to shareholders of record on November
1, 2003.

CCA INDUSTRIES, INC.

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

(UNAUDITED)


For the three month period ending May 31, 2003, the Company had
revenues of $17,610,850 and net income of $2,584,095 after a provision
for taxes of $1,744,481. Last year, for the May 31 quarter, the
Company had $13,312,347 of revenue and net income of $1,217,986. This
represents a 32% and 112% improvement for revenues and net income,
respectively. Gross margins improved from 66.7% to 69.5%. This was
primarily due to economies of scale derived as a result of the higher
sales volume. Selling, general and administrative (SG&A) expenses
increased to $4,927,457 from $3,865,127 as a result of an increase in
staff.

For the three month period ending May 31, 2003, advertising,
cooperative and promotional allowance expenditures were $2.63 million.
Last year, for the same three-month period ending May 31, 2002, they
were $2.86 million. Advertising expenditures were 15.1% of sales
compared to 21.6% last year. Since both co-op advertising and promo-
tions 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 No. 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 $1.5 million
for media expense and $1.1 million for co-op expenditures for the six
month period is reflected in the balance sheet. The Company deferred
$1.4 million of media costs in the prior year for the six-month period.
The deferral is the result of the Company's current $8.0 million media
budget for the entire year, which is predicated on substantially lower
spending in the third and fourth quarters. Co-op expenditures are
budgeted at $5 million for the year. Specifically, the Company spent
$5.5 million for media advertising in the six months and $3.6 million
in co-op advertising. The difference between the actual expense and
the budgeted expense is deferred or accrued over the subsequent six
month period, and by the end of the year will be fully expensed.

For the six month period ended May 31, 2003, the Company had
revenue of $30,126,032 and a net income of $3,157,721 after a provision
for income taxes of $2,131,187. In the prior year's period, the
Company had revenues of $23,559,541 and net income of $1,518,049 after
a provision for income taxes of $1,054,340. Gross profit margins for
the six month period ending May 31, 2003 increased from 65.1% in the
prior year to 67.2%.





-17-


For the six month period ended May 31, 2003, advertising, coopera-
tive and promotional allowance expenditures were $5,356,258 as compared
to $5,121,922 for the six month period ending May 31, 2002. This is
primarily due to an estimated increase in the national advertising
budget from $7.5 million to $8 million annually. Advertising expendi-
tures were 18.0% of sales vs. 21.9% last year.

For the six month period ending May 31, 2003, research and develop-
ment expenses were $431,773 compared to $228,061 last year.

The Company's financial position as of May 31, 2003 consists of
current assets of $25,804,141 and current liabilities of $10,463,291.
In addition, shareholders' equity increased from $18,835,423 at November
30, 2002 to $21,757,373 at May 31, 2003 primarily due to net income
earned during the period.

The Company generated $450,000 in cash from operations due to the
six month net income of $3.16 million, a $4.3 million increase in
accounts payable, and a $700,000 net increase in income taxes due.
Cash decreased due to an inventory increase of $2.3 million, an increase
in the Company's accounts receivable of $2.7 million and an
increase in deferred advertising of $2.6 million. Both increases in
deferred advertising and accounts receivable are "normal" seasonal
increases.

The $450,000 cash generated by operations, however, was used to pay
dividends of $371,000 and for the acquisition of computer equipment of
$114,000 and other fixed assets of $134,000. The Company received net
proceeds from the purchases and sales of marketable securities of
$930,000, leaving the Company with a net increase in its cash position
of approximately $760,000.
