Lil’ Fan, Inc.

Noblesville, Indiana

 

We have audited the accompanying balance sheet of Lil’ Fan, Inc. as of December 31, 2002 and the related statements of operations, stockholders’ deficit and cash flows for the year then ended. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audit.

 

We conducted our audit in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the 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. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

 

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Lil’ Fan, Inc. as of December 31, 2002, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the year then ended, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States.

LIL’ FAN, INC.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

JULY 31, 2003 AND DECEMBER 31, 2002

 

NOTE 1 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

Organization and Nature of Business

 

Lil’ Fan, Inc. (the “Company”), an Indiana corporation, is engaged in the design and merchandising of children’s licensed college and motor sports products. The company has licenses for approximately 120 major universities and colleges as well as the Indianapolis Motor Speedway, International Speedway Corporation, and Garfield amongst its other licenses. The customer base of Lil’ Fan includes major college bookstores, and national department stores.

 

Restricted Cash

 

Cash is restricted for the recourse obligation of the Company’s factoring of accounts receivable. These funds are held in the Company’s name by the financial institution with which the Company factors its accounts receivable. Amounts are placed in reserve to cover any amounts advanced to the Company not collected by the financial institution. This reserve is adjusted by the financial institution on a monthly basis.

 

Inventory

 

Inventory consists of raw materials, work-in-progress and is valued at the lower of cost or market. Cost is determined on a first-in, first-out basis. Costs included in inventories consist of materials, labor and manufacturing overhead that are related to the purchase and production of inventories. Inventories consist of the following:

 

    

July 31,

2003


  

December 31,

2002


Raw materials

   $ 214,701    $ 177,333

Finished goods

     101,036      126,934
    

  

     $ 315,737    $ 304,267
    

  

 

Accounts Receivable

 

Accounts receivable are stated at the amount management expects to collect from outstanding balances. Management provides for probable uncollectible amounts through a charge to earnings and a credit to a valuation allowance based on its assessment of the current status of individual accounts. Balances that are still outstanding after management has performed reasonable collection efforts are written off through a charge to the valuation allowance and a credit to accounts receivable. The Company grants credit to its customers without requiring collateral.

 

The Company factors its trade accounts receivable to a financial institution for a financing fee of 2.65% of the amounts advanced. Under the terms of the factoring agreement, the financial institution advances payments to the company upon receipt of accounts receivable invoices from the Company. The Company bears losses resulting from submitted discounts and returns. Included in accounts receivable at July 31, 2003 and December 31, 2002 are $236,199 and $157,216, respectively, relating to invoices or portions there-of submitted to the factor. After 90 days, the uncollected factored invoices are returned to the

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Company and the amount originally advanced that has not been received by the financial institution is deducted from the restricted cash account. These transactions are not reported as a sale of accounts receivable since the risk is retained by the Company.

 

Property, Plant and Equipment

 

Property, plant and equipment are carried at cost. Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets, or for leasehold improvements, over the terms of the lease, if shorter. Expenditures for additions and improvements are capitalized, while repairs and maintenance costs are expensed as incurred.

 

Income Taxes

 

The Company has elected to be taxed under the provisions of Subchapter S of the Internal Revenue Code and similar state statutes. Accordingly, no provision or liability for income taxes is reflected in the accompanying financial statements. Instead, the stockholders are responsible for income taxes on the Company’s profits and losses.

 

Revenue Recognition

 

Revenues from sales to customers are recorded when goods are shipped to customers and are reported net of provision for returns, allowances, claims and discounts, which are referred to as charge-backs.

 

Use of Estimates

 

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the balance sheet and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Accordingly, actual results could differ from those estimates.

 

New Pronouncements

 

SFAS No. 144, “Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets”; SFAS No. 145, “Rescission of FASB Statements No. 4, 44 and 64, Amendment of FASB Statement No. 13, and Technical Corrections” SFAS No. 146 “Accounting for Costs Associated with Exit or Disposal”, SFAS No. 142 “Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets” became effective for the Company during 2002. SFAS No. 142 requires, among other things, the discontinuance of goodwill amortization. In addition, the standard includes provisions for the reclassification of certain existing recognized intangibles, reclassification of certain intangibles out of previously reported goodwill and the identification of reporting units for the purposes of assessing potential future impairment of goodwill. The provisions of these standards that are applicable to the Company were implemented on a prospective basis as of January 1, 2002, which has no material effect on the Company’s financial statements.

INTRODUCTION TO UNAUDITED PRO FORMA CONDENSED COMBINED

 

FINANCIAL INFORMATION

 

The following unaudited pro forma condensed combined balance sheet as of July 31, 2003 and the unaudited pro forma condensed combined statement of operations for the six months ended May 31, 2003, are based on the historical financial statements of Next, Inc. and Lil’ Fan Inc. and give effect to the pro forma adjustments described herein as though the acquisition of Lil’ Fan Inc. dated as of July 31, 2003 had been consummated at May 31, 2003 for the unaudited condensed combined balance sheet and at December 1, 2002 for the unaudited condensed combined statements of operations for the twelve months ended November 30, 2002 and the six months ended May 31, 2003, respectively.

 

The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements should be read in conjunction with the notes thereto and with the historical financial statements of Next, Inc., as filed in its annual report on Form 10-KSB/A on September 9, 2003 and previously filed Form 10-QSB and the historical financial statements of Lil’ Fan, Inc. included elsewhere herein. The unaudited pro forma combined financial statements are not necessarily indicative of the Company’s combined financial position or results of operations that would have been achieved had the acquisition been consummated at July 31, 2003 for the unaudited condensed combined balance sheet, and at January 1, 2002 for the unaudited condensed combined statements of operations for the twelve months ended November 30, 2002 and the six months ended May 31, 2003, respectively.

 

Under the terms of an Asset Purchase Agreement dated and consummated on July 31, 2003, Next, Inc. purchased all of the operating assets of Lil’ Fan, Inc. and an affiliate sole proprietorship, Stan Howard & Associates. The pro forma adjustments reflect the transaction using the purchase method of accounting, and are based on available information and certain estimates and assumptions set forth in the notes to the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information. Next, Inc. will establish a new basis for Lil’ Fan, Inc., assets and liabilities based upon an allocation of the fair value of the acquisition.
