REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
To the Members
Magla Products, LLC and Subsidiary
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Magla Products, LLC and Subsidiary as of November 28, 2009 and November 29, 2008, and the related consolidated statements of operations and members’ deficiency and cash flows for the years then ended. These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audit included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Magla Products, LLC and Subsidiary as of November 28, 2009 and November 29, 2008, and their results of operations and cash flows for the years then ended, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 2 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company has incurred continuing net losses and, as of November 28, 2009, had working capital and members’ deficiencies and was not in compliance with certain covenants of its bank loan agreement. These conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. Management’s plans regarding those matters are also described in Note 2. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

MAGLA PRODUCTS, LLC AND SUBSIDIARY
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
|
1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
|
||
|
Organization and Business
Magla Products, LLC (“Magla”) was formed on December 1, 1999 as a New Jersey limited liability company to manufacture and distribute household items. Magla’s customers are primarily retailers located throughout the United States.
|
||
|
Effective November 24, 2007, the members of Magla transferred 100% of their ownership in Magla World-Wide, Ltd. (“World-Wide”) to Magla. World-Wide was incorporated in the Cayman Islands on November 24, 1999 and maintains its registered office in the Cayman Islands. The accounting records and consolidated financial statements are maintained and presented in United States Dollars. World-Wide was established primarily for trade with companies from the United States of America. World-Wide acts as a purchasing agent in sourcing gloves from suppliers outside of the United States. The gloves are then resold to third parties and to Magla.
|
||
|
Principles of Consolidation
The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Magla and its wholly owned subsidiary, World-Wide (collectively, the “Company”). All significant intercompany transactions and accounts have been eliminated in consolidation.
|
||
|
Fiscal Year
The Company’s fiscal year ends on the Saturday nearest to November 30 and consists of 52 weeks.
|
||
|
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect certain reported amounts and disclosures. Accordingly, actual results could differ from those estimates.
|
||
|
Concentrations of Risk for Cash
Cash and cash equivalents include all cash balances and highly liquid investments with a maturity of three months or less when acquired. At times, such cash and cash investments may exceed Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation insured limits.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
During the year ended November 29, 2008, the Company adopted the Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures standard issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) for financial assets and liabilities and elected the deferral option available for one year for non-financial assets and liabilities. This standard defines fair value, provides guidance for measuring fair value and requires certain disclosures. This standard does not require any new fair value measurements, but discusses valuation techniques, such as the market approach (comparable market prices), the income approach (present value of future income or cash flow), and the cost approach (cost to replace the service capacity of an asset or replacement cost). During the year ended November 28, 2009, the Company adopted the remaining provisions as they relate to nonfinancial assets and liabilities that are not recognized or disclosed at fair value on a recurring basis. The adoption of the remaining provisions did not materially impact the Company’s consolidated financial statements. As permitted in 2008, the Company chose not to elect the fair value option as prescribed by the FASB for its financial assets and liabilities that had not been previously carried at fair value. The carrying amounts reported in the balance sheets for current assets and current liabilities approximate fair value due to their short-term nature. The carrying amounts reported for long-term debt approximate fair value because the underlying instruments bear interest rates which approximate current market rates for obligations with similar terms. The amounts reported for loans payable to related entities and former members are reported at carrying value because it was impracticable to determine their fair value.
Accounts Receivable
Accounts receivable are stated at net realizable value. An allowance for doubtful accounts is recorded based on a combination of historical experience, aging analysis and information on specific accounts. Account balances are written off against the allowance after all means of collection have been exhausted and the potential for recovery is considered remote. Accounts are considered past due or delinquent based on contractual terms and how recently payments have been received. The allowance for doubtful accounts was approximately $123,000 and $131,000 at November 28, 2009 and November 29, 2008, respectively
Inventories
Inventories are valued at the lower of cost (first-in, first-out basis) or market.
Property, Equipment and Improvements
Property, equipment and improvements are stated at cost and are depreciated using the straight-line method over estimated useful asset lives, which range from 5 to 10 years for furniture and equipment. Leasehold improvements are amortized over the lesser of the useful life or the lease term.
6
MAGLA PRODUCTS, LLC AND SUBSIDIARY
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)
Patents and Trademarks
Patents and trademarks, included in other assets, are amortized on the straight-line basis by annual charges to operations over their estimated lives.
Revenue Recognition
Revenue is recognized when goods are shipped to customers. Shipments are made by common carrier. Standard terms for shipments are freight on board shipping point, at which time the Company has completed all performance obligations to consummate the sale. Revenue is reported net of reserves for sales returns and allowances. Sales returns and allowances are estimated based on the specific agreements and/or historical patterns with major accounts.
Shipping and Handling Costs
Shipping and handling costs, which are included in selling expenses, amounted to $2,055,379 and $3,072,482 in 2009 and 2008, respectively.
Advertising Costs
Advertising costs are expensed as incurred. Advertising costs amounted to $431,911 and $411,251 in 2009 and 2008, respectively.
Income Taxes
The accompanying consolidated financial statements do not contain a provision or credit for Federal or state income taxes for Magla since the proportionate share of Magla’s income or loss is included in the Federal and state income tax returns of its members.
World-Wide is classified as a Foreign Controlled Corporation for United States income tax purposes. The accompanying consolidated financial statements do not contain a provision or credit for Federal or state income taxes since any profits repatriated to Magla would be included in Magla’s income tax returns in accordance with Internal Revenue Code Section 952, subpart F.
In accordance with the provisions of Section 6 of the Tax Concessions Law (1995 Revision), World-Wide has been certified by the Registrar of Companies of the Cayman Islands to be a company registered as an exempted company under Section 182 of the Companies Law (Revised). World-Wide is exempt in the Cayman Islands from all forms of taxation on profits, income, gains or appreciation of the company or its operations including estate, duty or inheritance tax on the shares, debentures or other obligations for a period of twenty years from February 8, 2000.
Federal, state and local income tax returns for years prior to 2006 are no longer subject to examination by tax authorities.

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and Long-Lived Assets To Be Disposed Of
The Company evaluates the carrying value of long-lived assets whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate the carrying value of an asset may not be recoverable. When factors indicate the asset may not be recoverable, the Company compares the related undiscounted future net cash flows to the carrying value of the asset to determine if impairment exists. If the expected future net cash flows are less than the carrying value, the asset is written down to its estimated fair value. When assets are removed from operations and held for sale, the impairment loss is estimated as the excess of the carrying value of the assets over their fair value. No such impairments of long-lived assets were recorded for the years ended November 28, 2009 and November 29, 2008.
New Accounting Pronouncements
Management, as permitted, has deferred the application of recently enacted accounting standards related to accounting for uncertainties in income taxes until the required effective date of the standards for the Company of November 29, 2009. Management continually evaluates uncertain tax positions and evaluates changes in tax law and new authoritative rulings. The adoption of the new standards related to uncertainties in income taxes is not expected to have a material effect on the consolidated financial condition or results of operations of the Company.
Subsequent Events
These financial statements were approved by management and available for issuance on December 17, 2010. Management has evaluated subsequent events through this date.
2 - GOING CONCERN
As shown in the accompanying consolidated financial statements, the Company incurred net losses of $841,478 and $1,130,598 in 2009 and 2008, respectively. In addition, the Company had working capital deficiencies of $8,020,043 and $13,936,175, and members’ deficiencies of $8,134,617 and $16,255,756 at November 28, 2009 and November 29, 2008, respectively. The Company was not in compliance with certain covenants of its bank loan agreement at November 28, 2009 and no bank waiver was obtained. These factors create substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. Management’s plans with regard to these matters are as follows:
During 2009, raw material costs began to decrease significantly, particularly for rubber, latex and petroleum, and new sales programs have commenced with some of the Company’s major customers.

MAGLA PRODUCTS, LLC AND SUBSIDIARY
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
2 - GOING CONCERN (Continued)
Prior to November 28, 2009, accounts payable totaling $9,255,217, which were due to related entities, were forgiven by those entities. Accordingly, both the working capital deficiency and the members’ deficiency were reduced by this amount as of November 28, 2009.
In 2010, the Company signed an additional license agreement with National Brand Work Wear Company, which will open additional channels of distribution.
Included in notes receivable, related entities at November 28, 2009 is a receivable from an entity that entered into a contract to sell its assets in November 2010. Consequently, the Company expects to receive approximately $475,000 in December 2010.

6 - SHORT-TERM BORROWINGS
The Company has a $13,500,000 revolving line of credit agreement with a bank that expires in January 2011. Outstanding borrowings bear interest at the bank’s prime rate plus 2.25% (5.5% at November 28, 2009 and 6.25% at November 29, 2008), which is due monthly. All borrowings under this agreement are secured by substantially all of the assets of the Company, and the members of the Company have personally guaranteed up to $1,000,000 of borrowings. In addition, certain related entities having common ownership have guaranteed borrowings under this agreement. The agreement contains certain restrictive covenants which, among other things, require the maintenance of certain financial ratios. The Company has not been in compliance with these loan covenants since November 28, 2009. Although no bank waiver has been obtained, borrowings have continued under the same terms.
The Company is currently in discussions with lenders to refinance its debt.

8 - NOTE PAYABLE - FORMER MEMBER
The Company has a note payable to a former member as a result of acquiring the former member’s interest in the Company during 2005.
