The financial information as of January 31, 2000 and for the three months and
six months ended January 31, 2000 and 1999 is unaudited. In the opinion of
management, such information contains all adjustments, consisting only of normal
recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair presentation of the results for such
periods. Results for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of results
to be expected for an entire year.

4.       INVENTORY

5.       USE OF ESTIMATES

accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that

contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and
reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual
results could differ from those estimates.

6.       INCOME TAXES

The income tax rate utilized on an interim basis is based on the Company's
estimate of the effective income tax rate for the fiscal year ending July 31,
2000, which approximates 35%.

Results of Operations

THREE MONTHS ENDED JANUARY 31, 2000 AND 1999

Net sales for the three months ended January 31, 2000 and 1999 were $10,161,858
and $8,994,213 respectively. Net sales increased 13% primarily due to higher
sales of gift baskets, gift items and candies as we integrated the E. Rosen line
of products.

Gross profit for the second quarter decreased to $2,819,716 from $2,872,873 and
declined as a percentage of sales to 28% from 32%. The decrease in gross profit
was primarily attributable to higher costs of production due to high labor costs
associated with a labor shortage in the Company's area, which created high
levels of overtime and required us to hire temporary employees. The Company is
taking action to ameliorate the labor supply problem including adjusting
production scheduling to minimize labor requirements but anticipates that the
labor shortage will continue into the third fiscal quarter. In addition, the
gross profit margin was affected by the lower margins associated with jellybean
sales which accounted for 15% of the total sales for the quarter.

Selling, general and administrative expenses increased to $2,112,393 from
$1,298,003 and increased as a percentage of sales to 21% from 14% of sales,
largely due to increased freight costs and the additional selling, general and
administrative expenses associated with the new operation in Rhode Island.

Salaries and related expenses increased to $922,547 from $783,046 and increased
as a percentage of sales to 9% from 8.7% of sales in the prior comparable
quarter due to higher management salaries.

As a result, operating expenses increased to $3,034,940 from $2,081,049 and
increased as a percentage of sales to 30% from 23% of sales.

<PAGE>

Loss from operations for the three months ended January 31, 2000 was $215,224
compared to income of $791,824 for the prior comparable quarter.

Interest income decreased to $5,253 from $11,830. Interest expenses increased to
$112,504 from $46,678 due to increased borrowing under our line of credit for
working capital requirements to support higher sales. Other income increased to
$84,386 from expense of $20,467 due to the collection of an insurance claim and
other non-material non-operating income.

The effective income tax rate for the current quarter was 35%. The income tax
rate utilized for the current quarter is based on the Company's estimate of the
effective tax rate for the fiscal year ending July 31, 2000 which approximates
35%.

As a result of the foregoing, the Company incurred a net loss of $127,705 for
the three months ended January 31, 2000 compared to net income of $478,646 for
the prior comparable quarter.

SIX MONTHS ENDED JANUARY 31, 2000 AND 1999

Net sales for the six months ended January 31, 2000 and 1999 were $23,027,704
and $15,234,136 respectively. Net sales increased 51% primarily due to higher
sales of gift baskets, gift items and candies as we integrated the E. Rosen line
of products.

Gross profit for the six months increased to $6,789,145 from $4,993,407 but
declined as a percentage of sales to 30% from 32%. The decrease in gross profit
as a percentage of sales was primarily attributable to higher costs of
production in the second quarter due to high labor costs associated with a labor
shortage which created high overtime and the necessity to hire temporary
employees. In addition, the gross profit margin was affected by the lower
margins associated with jellybean sales which accounted for 6.5% of the total
sales for the period.

Selling, general and administrative expenses increased to $3,797,818 from
$2,313,402 and increased as a percentage of sales to 17% from 15% of sales,
largely due to increased freight costs and the additional selling, general and
administrative expenses associated with the new operation in Rhode Island.

Salaries and related expenses increased to $1,686,312 from $1,264,337 but
decreased as a percentage of sales to 7% from 8% of sales in the prior
comparable period. The increase in salaries and related expenses was due to the
addition of new management employees at both the Maryland and Rhode Island
operations as well as higher management salaries. New management includes, among
others, new sales managers, operations, accounting and MIS personnel hired to
develop and support current and future marketing and operational needs of the
Company.

As a result, operating expenses increased to $5,484,130 from $3,790,851 but
decreased as a percent of sales to 24% from 25% of sales. The Company believes
that it has put into place the infrastructure including new management in the
areas of marketing, sales and operations to support its newly expanded and
growing product lines and customer base.

Income from operations for the six months ended January 31, 2000 was $1,305,015
compared to

<PAGE>

income of $1,142,556 for the prior comparable period.

Interest income decreased to $12,324 from $68,014. During the prior comparable
period interest income was generated by the investment of the proceeds of the
initial public offering. The proceeds were utilized for the purchase of E. Rosen
assets on September 24,1998 as well as working capital. Interest expenses
increased to $175,215 from $62,689 due to increased borrowing under the line of
credit for working capital requirements to support higher sales. Other income
increased to $525,587 from expense of $38,868 primarily due to the receipt of a
$350,000 settlement arising out of a trademark infringement suit the company
initiated.

The effective income tax rate for the six month period was 35%. The income tax
rate utilized for the current period is based on the Company's estimate of the
effective tax rate for the fiscal year ending July 31, 2000 which approximates
35%.

As a result of the foregoing, the Company earned net income of $1,079,284 for
the six months ended January 31, 2000 compared to net income of $731,949 for the
prior comparable period.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

The Company's primary cash requirements have been to fund the purchase,
manufacture and commercialization of its products. The Company finances its
operation and manufacturing with cash flow from operations and bank financing.
The Company's working capital at January 31, 2000 and July 31, 1999 was
$8,024,805 and $6,992,533, respectively.

Net cash used in operating activities for the six months ended January 31, 2000
and 1999, respectively was $4,576,004 and $4,920,239. The decrease in cash used
by operating activities was due to increases in the Company's accounts payables
which were offset by the increase in inventory and accounts receivable which
were caused by the additional sales and purchasing activity.

Net cash used in investing activities decreased to $164,758 from $420,199,
primarily due to more acquisitions of equipment by the Company in the prior
period.

Net cash provided by financing activities increased to $5,296,607 from $103,951
primarily due to additional borrowings on the Company's line of credit to
finance working capital needs.

Principal payments for the Company's long-term debt for the twelve months ending
January 31, 2001 are $253,799. The Company believes that cash provided by
operations will be sufficient to finance its operations and fund debt service
requirements.

SEASONALITY

The Company's sales typically increase during the second half of the calendar
year principally due to the holiday season.

The Company does not believe that inflation has had a significant impact on the
Company's results of operations for the periods presented.
