LASER MASTER INTERNATIONAL, INC.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
NOTE 1 BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Laser Master International Inc. and its wholly owned subsidiaries (collectively the Company). All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
The accompanying financial statements are unaudited for the interim periods, but include all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring accruals) which management considers necessary to present fairly the financial position at May 31, 2009 and the results of operations and cash flows for all periods presented. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires the Company to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could vary from these estimates. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Companys Annual Report at November 30, 2008, and for the year then ended, as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on Form 10-K.
The results reflected in the interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results of the entire fiscal year to end on November 30, 2009.
Name and brief description of the Companys trade names and wholly owned subsidiaries are summarized as follows:
Trade Names:
Flexo-Crafts Prints Inc.
Harrison First Realty Corp.
Passport Papers Inc.
East River Arts Inc.
Wholly-owned Subsidiaries:
1540 57 LLC
This company owns 100 acres of land in Swan Lake, New York.
SCP 2006-C23-033 LLC
This company owns a building in Chicago, Illinois which is leased to a retailer.
Allowance for Doubtful Accounts The Company reserves for bad debts and creates its allowance by identifying specific Accounts Receivable by customer based upon age and collectability. When an account is determined to be uncollectible, it is removed from the accounts receivable and the allowance is reduced.
Inventories Inventories which consist of mostly finished goods are stated at the lower of cost or market, with cost being determined by the weighted average first-in, first-out method.
Property and Equipment Deprecation of property and equipment is computed by the straight-line method at rates calculated to amortize cost over the estimated useful lives which approximate 39 years for

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
buildings and building improvements and 5 to 10 years for machinery and equipment, computer equipment and furniture and fixtures. Maintenance and repairs are charged to operations as incurred, while the cost of betterments and improvements is capitalized. The cost and related accumulated depreciation of assets sold or otherwise disposed of are eliminated from the accounts and any resulting gain or loss is reflected in operations.
Long-Lived Assets The Company follows Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 144, Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets. This statement requires that the Company review certain long-lived assets and identifiable intangibles for impairment or disposal whenever events or changes in circumstances indicated the carrying amount may not be recoverable. In that regard, the Company addresses recoverability based upon estimated non-discounted cash flow forecasts. The Company has determined that an impairment loss does not need to be recognized for applicable assets through the six months ended May 31, 2009 and May 31, 2008.
Investments Investments consist of real estate joint ventures. The Company accounts for the investments under the equity method.
Revenue Recognition The Company recognizes revenues in accordance with Securities and Exchange Commission Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 104, Revenue Recognition (SAB 104). Under SAB 104, revenues from merchandise sales are recorded when all four of the following criteria are met: persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists; delivery has occurred or services have been rendered; the Companys price to the buyer is fixed or determinable; and collectability is reasonably assured. The Company reports its sales levels on a net revenue basis, with net revenues being computed by deducting from gross revenues the amount of actual sales returns and discounts.
New Accounting Pronouncements The Company does not expect the adoption of recently issued accounting pronouncements to have a significant impact on the Companys results of operations, financial position or cash flows.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENTS DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS.
The statements contained in this report that are not historical are forward-looking statements, including statements regarding our expectations, intentions, beliefs or strategies regarding the future. Forward-looking statements include our statements regarding liquidity, anticipated cash needs, and availability and anticipated expense levels. All forward-looking statements included in this report are based on information available to us on this date, and we assume no obligation to update any such forward-looking statement. It is important to note that our actual results could differ materially from those in such forward-looking statements. The following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and accompanying notes appearing elsewhere in this report.
Overview
Historically our principal business has been printing for the textile and gift wrap paper industry using a computerized laser printing system. We have experienced significant price competition from low-cost printing operations in other countries, particularly China. In response to this competitive pressure we diversified our customer base to national retail chain stores, and broadened our product line into different types of packaging and gift wrap products. We currently purchase our products from the domestic USA markets, China and other countries. We have in house design, creative and prepress departments and also use outside sources for these services. Generally, we have had no trouble finding domestic or overseas suppliers. We are experiencing price increases due to the exchange rate of the US dollar versus foreign currencies and the general cost increase of raw materials, energy and labor.
Three months ended May 31, 2009 compared to three months ended May 31, 2008.
Revenues were $1,442,510 for the three months ended May 31, 2009 compared to $3,825,680 for the three months ended May 31, 2008. Revenue decreased approximately 62.29% for the quarter ended May 31, 2009 due to a general slowdown in retail sales and our customers having inventory overstock. Our gross margin for the three months ended May 31. 2009 was 31.27% compared to 28.41% for the three months ended May 31, 2008. Selling expenses for the three months ended May 31, 2009 remained the same as a percentage of revenue from $252,174 (6.59% of revenue) for the three months ended May 31, 2008 to $95,858 (6.65% of revenue) for the three months ended May 31, 2009. General and administrative expenses for the three months ended May 31, 2009 decreased to $650,645 (45.11% of revenue) from $884,627 (23.12% of revenue) as for the three months ended May 31, 2008.
Interest expense was approximately the same for the three months ended May 31, 2009 as for the three months ended May 31, 2008.
Six months ended May 31, 2009 compared to six months ended May 31, 2008.
Revenue decreased approximately 55.64% for the quarter ended May 31, 2009 ($3,464,014) for the six months ended May 31, 2009 compared to $7,808,933 for the six months ending May 31, 2008 due to a general slowdown in retail sales and our customers having inventory overstock. Our gross margin increased to 25.60% for the six months ended May 31, 2009 (26.51%) compared to the six months ended May 31, 2008. Selling expenses decreased to $224,941 (6.49% of revenue) for the six months ended May 31, 2009 from $529,234 (6.78% of revenue) for the six months ended May 31, 2008. General and administrative expenses for the six months ending May 31, 2009 decreased to $1,470,656 from $1,811,679 for the six months ending May 31, 2008.

Interest expense was $194,723 and $197,404 for the six months ended May 31, 2009 as for the six months ended May 31, 2008.
Liquidity and Capital Resources.
For the six months ended May 31, 2009 the Company had cash flow used in operations of $(1,463).
Liquidity is sustained principally through funds provided from operations and the factoring facility.
Inventories are up as a percentage of our current assets as of the close of the quarter (approximately 74.29% as of May 31, 2009 versus approximately 30.32% as of November 30, 2008), and accounts receivable are down as a percentage of current assets as of that date (approximately 5.41% as of May 31, 2009 versus approximately 41.75% as of November 30, 2008), due to our seasonal sales which increase our accounts receivable in the fourth quarter.
Cash plus accounts receivable exceeded our current liabilities. We believe we will be able to meet our cash requirements for the next 12 months without additional financing based on current projected sales.
The Company has arranged for a factoring facility of up to $5,000,000. The Company agreed to offer for sale to the factor certain of its accounts. The factor has the absolute right in its sole discretion to reject any or all offered accounts. The factor may advance up to 85% of the face value of the invoices. The remaining 15% of balance is received when the customer pays the invoice to the factor.
Each account is purchased by the factor without recourse against the Company. All losses incurred by the factor from the financial inability of the applicable account debtor to pay such account over and above any and all residual payments and reserve amounts offset shall be borne solely by the factor.
As of November 30, 2008 and May 31, 2009, the factor charges the Company 1% of the invoice amount if the customer repays the invoice within 60 days and 1.25% for up to 90 days.
The factor has a security interest in all of our accounts receivable, inventory, deposit accounts, and general intangibles. We find that this arrangement is a convenient and cost efficient way to turn our accounts receivable into cash on an as needed basis.
Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
Use of Estimates. In preparing our financial statements, we must make a number of estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue, and expenses, and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. On an ongoing basis, we evaluate our estimates. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results could differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions, and these differences may be material. We believe the following critical accounting policies affect our more significant judgments and estimates used in preparing our financial statements.
Allowance for Doubtful Accounts We reserve for bad debts and create our allowance by identifying specific accounts receivable by customer based upon age and collectibility. When we determined that an account is uncollectible, we remove it from the accounts receivable and reduce the related allowance. Our estimates of collectibility are based on a number of subjective factors including our appraisal of the particular customers history with us into any identifiable factors that may particularly affect that customers
11
segment of the market. If our estimates as to collectibility are incorrect the amount of our reserve may be too small, resulting in greater future charges to income if and when the uncollectibility of that account becomes clear. If we were to apply another method of determining our allowance for doubtful accounts, such as applying historical percentages to the aggregate dollar amount of accounts outstanding, the result in any particular period could be very different.
Inventories Inventories which consist of mostly finished goods are stated at the lower of cost or market, with cost being determined by the weighted average first-in, first-out method. The effect of this policy is to reduce the cost of goods sold when cost of inventory are rising as compared to the cost of goods sold that would apply if we were to determine cost on a last in first-out basis. Conversely, our policy would result in a reduction in the cost of goods sold during periods of falling inventory prices.
Property and Equipment We compute depreciation of property and equipment by the straight-line method at rates calculated to amortize cost over the estimated useful lives which approximate 39 years for buildings and building improvements and 5 to 10 years for machinery and equipment, computer equipment and furniture and fixtures. We charge maintenance and repairs to operations as incurred, while we capitalize the cost of betterments and improvements. The cost and related accumulated depreciation of assets sold or otherwise disposed of are eliminated from the accounts and any resulting gain or loss is reflected in operations. If we were to apply shorter useful lives in estimating the applicable depreciation, depreciation expense would be higher. In addition, we must apply judgment in determining whether particular work should properly be regarded as maintenance and repairers, and not a long-term increase in the value of the underlying asset. To the extent that we classify work on an asset as a cost of that asset rather than an expense to be deducted currently, our stated earnings for the applicable period would be increased.
Long-Lived Assets We follow Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 144, Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets. This statement requires us to review certain long-lived assets and identifiable intangibles for impairment or disposal whenever events or changes in circumstances indicated the carrying amount may not be recoverable. We address recoverability based upon estimated non-discounted cash flow forecasts. Technological changes and other changes in the marketplace may result in a particular assets becoming recoverable in a shorter period of time than we have estimated. If that were to occur, our earnings would be reduced at such time as we determined that our initial estimate was too long. We have determined that we do not need to recognize an impairment loss for applicable assets through May 31, 2009 and 2008.
Revenue Recognition We recognize revenues in accordance with Securities and Exchange Commission Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 104, Revenue Recognition (SAB 104). Under SAB 104, we record revenues from merchandise sales when all four of the following criteria are met: persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists; delivery has occurred or services have been rendered; the Companys price to the buyer is fixed or determinable; and collectibility is reasonably assured. We report our sales levels on a net revenue basis, with net revenues being computed by deducting from gross revenues the amount of actual sales returns and discounts. The determination of whether collectibility is reasonably assured is in substantial part subjective. If we are too optimistic in estimating collectibility, revenues would be overstated for the period prior to our becoming aware that an account has become uncollectible.
