|2. | Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
|-- | ------------------------------------------



The preparation of financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires that
management make a number of assumptions and estimates that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue and expenses in the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. Management bases its estimates on historical
experience and various other assumptions believed to be reasonable. Although these estimates are based on managements best knowledge of current events and actions that may impact the Company in the future, actual results may differ from these
estimates and assumptions. The Companys critical accounting policies are those that affect its consolidated financial statements materially and involve a significant level of judgment by management.



Revenue Recognition The Company recognizes revenue after an
order is received from a customer, product has been shipped FOB shipping point, the sales price is fixed or determinable and the collectibility of sales price is reasonably assured.



Allowance for Doubtful Accounts The financial status of customers is routinely checked and monitored by the
Companys Credit Department when granting credit. The Company provides an allowance for doubtful accounts based upon historical experience and managements analysis of past-due accounts.



Goodwill Goodwill represents the excess of purchase price over
the fair value of identifiable net assets acquired. Prior to 2002, goodwill was amortized on a straight-line basis over periods of 15 to 40 years. Effective January 1, 2002, the Company adopted the provisions of SFAS No. 142, Accounting for
Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets. With the adoption of SFAS No. 142, goodwill is no longer subjected to amortization and the Companys management tests, at least annually or when events or changes in circumstances occur, goodwill for
impairment to determine whether its carrying value exceeds its implied fair value.

The Company issued $160 million of 9-1⁄2% senior unsecured notes in a private offering during the second quarter of 2004 to retire approximately $15.0
million of indebtedness outstanding under a then-existing credit facility, to pay a special distribution to shareholders of approximately $134.6 million and for general corporate purposes. The Company may redeem any of the notes beginning on May 15,
2007 with an initial redemption price of 109.500% of their principal amount, plus accrued interest. In addition, before May 15, 2007, the Company may redeem up to 35% of the notes at a redemption price of 109.500% of their principal amount plus

The Company applies
the intrinsic value-based method of accounting prescribed by Accounting Principles Board (APB) Opinion No. 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees, and related interpretations. Under this method, compensation expense is recorded on the
date of grant only if the current market price of the underlying stock exceeded the exercise price. Since the exercise price equals the market value of the underlying common stock on the date of grant, no compensation expense is recognized. For the
thirteen weeks ended September 26, 2003 and October 1, 2004, the Company recognized compensation expense of $0 and $0, respectively. For the thirty-nine weeks ended September 26, 2003 and the forty weeks ended October 1, 2004, the Company recognized
compensation expense of $0 and $1,710,000 respectively. SFAS No. 123, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation, established accounting and disclosure requirements using a fair value-based method of accounting for stock-based employee based
compensation plans. As allowed by SFAS No. 123, the Company has elected to continue to apply the intrinsic value-based method of accounting described above, and has adopted the disclosure requirements of SFAS No. 123.



The Company has a nonqualified stock option plan under which options are
granted to certain employees. The plan authorizes grants of options to purchase 537 shares, all of which have been granted. The Company has not disclosed the effect on net income as if the Company had applied the fair value recognition provisions of
SFAS 123, Accounting for Stock Based Compensation, due to immateriality.



There were no anti-dilutive securities outstanding at October 1, 2004 or September 26, 2003.

|8. | Commitments and Contingencies
|-- | -----------------------------



The Company leases production space and equipment under noncancelable operating leases. Some of the Companys leases provide that the Company pays
taxes, insurance, maintenance, and other operating expenses. Rent expense under operating leases totaled $46,000 and $14,000 in the third quarter of 2003 and 2004, respectively. Rent expense under operating leases totaled $165,000 and $34,000 in the
first three quarters of 2003 and 2004, respectively. The reductions in rent expense from the previous year were primarily related to the closing of a subsidiary in the fourth quarter of 2003. At October 1, 2004, the Company did not have any
significant commitments in excess of one year under noncancelable operating leases.



The Company is involved in certain legal proceedings in the ordinary course of business. Management believes that all of the Companys pending litigation is routine in nature and that none of this litigation is
likely to have a material adverse effect on the Company.



|9. | Subsequent Event
|-- | ----------------



Subsequent to October 1, 2004, the Company repurchased $6,350,000 of the $160,000,000 principal amount of its 9-1⁄2% Senior Notes due 2011 from the
open market using cash on hand for an aggregate purchase price of $6,890,000. The Company retired these notes and expects to incur a charge of $765,000 during the fourth quarter of 2004 relating to the repurchase.

Results of Operations



Thirteen Weeks Ended October 1, 2004, Compared with Thirteen Weeks Ended September 26, 2003



Net Sales. Net sales were $37.9 million for the third quarter of
2004, as compared to net sales of $32.2 million for the third quarter of 2003, an increase of $5.7 million or 17.7%. Improved economic conditions in North America during the third quarter of 2004 as compared to the third quarter of 2003 contributed
to this growth as we realized sales increases in all of our product lines. In the U.S., electric screen sales increased $1.9 million, wall screen sales increased $1.7 million, and portable screen sales increased $1.5 million. Sales of the
Companys European subsidiaries increased $1.1 million or 21.9%, with the stronger Euro accounting for $0.5 million of that increase.



Cost of Sales. The cost of sales was $21.1 million for the third quarter of 2004, as compared to $19.4 million for the third quarter of 2003, an
increase of $1.7 million, or 8.7%. As a percentage of net sales, the cost of sales represented 55.6% and 60.2% for the third quarter of 2004 and the third quarter of 2003,

respectively. This constitutes a 4.6% improvement in margins and results from a combination of the increased sales of higher margin products and greater
productivity at the Warsaw, Indiana plant.



Selling, General
and Administrative Expenses. Selling, general and administrative expenses were $3.8 million in the third quarter of 2004, as compared to $3.8 million for the third quarter of 2003. An increase in commission expense in the United States as a
result of increased sales was offset by reductions in other expenses including performance based compensation and marketing. Selling, general and administrative expenses in our European subsidiaries increased $0.2 million of which $0.1 million was
the result of the strengthening Euro.



Depreciation
and Amortization. Depreciation and amortization was $0.9 million for the third quarter of 2004 and $1.0 million for the third quarter of 2003.



Interest. Interest expense totaled $3.9 million for the third quarter of 2004, as compared to $0.5 million for the third quarter of 2003, an
increase of $3.4 million. This increase was a direct result of the interest on $160 million of 9-1⁄2% senior debt issued in May 2004. Interest expense will be substantially higher for the remainder of 2004 and succeeding periods as a result of
the issuance of this debt.



Miscellaneous, net.
Miscellaneous, net was $0.0 million for the third quarter of 2004, as compared to $0.1 million for the third quarter of 2003, a decrease of $0.1 million.



Forty Weeks Ended October 1, 2004, Compared with Thirty-Nine Weeks Ended September 26, 2003



Net Sales. Net sales were $115.4 million for the first three quarters of 2004, as compared to net sales of $94.8
million for the first three quarters of 2003, an increase of $20.6 million or 21.7%. Improved economic conditions in North America during the first three quarters of 2004 as compared to the first three quarters of 2003 contributed to this growth as
we realized increases in all of the Companys product lines. Results in the first three quarters of 2004 also benefited from the 2004 period being a 40-week period as compared to a 39-week period in 2003. In the U.S., electric screen sales
increased $5.9 million, wall screen sales increased $5.2 million, and portable screen sales increased $4.7 million. Sales of the Companys European subsidiaries increased $4.8 million or 27.9%, with the stronger Euro accounting for $2.1 million
of that increase.



Cost of Sales. The cost of sales was
$63.8 million for the first three quarters of 2004, as compared to $56.7 million for the first three quarters of 2003, an increase of $7.1 million, or 12.5%. As a percentage of net sales, the cost of sales represented 55.2% and 59.7% for the first
three quarters of 2004 and the first three quarters of 2003, respectively. This constitutes a 4.5% improvement in margins resulting from a combination of the increased sales of higher margin products and greater productivity at the Warsaw, Indiana
plant.



Selling, General and Administrative Expenses.
Selling, general and administrative expenses were $14.3 million for the first three quarters of 2004, as compared to $11.2 million for the first three quarters of 2003. In the second quarter of 2004, we incurred a non-cash compensation expense of
$1.7 million related to an employees exercise of 40 options of common stock at less than the original exercise price as per an employment agreement entered into during the second quarter of 2004. Selling, general and administrative expenses in
our European subsidiaries increased $0.8 million of which $0.3 million was the result of the strengthening Euro. Commission expense increased by $0.5 million as a result of increased sales. Marketing expense increased $0.1 million as we expanded our
market coverage in the home theater and on-line distributor markets.

Depreciation and Amortization. Depreciation and amortization was $2.8 million and $3.0 million for
the first three quarters of 2004 and 2003, respectively.



Interest. Interest expense totaled $6.6 million for the first three quarters of 2004, as compared to $1.5 million for the first three quarters of 2003, an increase of $5.1 million. This increase was a direct result of the interest on
$160 million of 9-1⁄2% senior debt issued on May 15, 2004. Interest expense will be substantially higher for the remainder of 2004 and succeeding periods as a result of the issuance of this debt.



Miscellaneous, net. Miscellaneous, net was $0.2 million for the first
three quarters of 2004 as compared to $0.1 million for the first three quarters of 2003, an increase of $0.1 million.



EBITDA



EBITDA was $13.0 million for the 13 weeks ended October 1, 2004 as compared to $8.9 million for the 13 weeks ended September 26, 2003, an increase of $4.1 million or 46.1%. EBITDA was $36.9 million for the 40 weeks
ended October 1, 2004 as compared to $26.8 million for the 39 weeks ended September 26, 2003, an increase of $10.1 million or 37.7%. EBITDA is a common alternate measure used by investors and financial analysts. Da-Lite calculates EBITDA as net
income before income taxes, interest and depreciation, amortization and impairment loss. EBITDA is a non-GAAP measure of operations that the Companys management uses to generally evaluate the financial performance of the business and to assess
its cash flow generating abilities. EBITDA should not be considered in isolation from, and is not presented as an alternative measure of, operating income (loss) or cash provided by operating activities as determined under generally accepted
accounting principles, or GAAP. The calculation of EBITDA may vary among companies. The following table reconciles the computation of EBITDA, as compared to net income for the periods indicated:

Liquidity and Capital Resources



The Company has been able to fund its working capital requirements, its capital expenditures and its distributions to
shareholders primarily with cash generated from operations. Temporary capital requirements in the first half of each year used to make distributions to the Companys shareholders for tax payments have been funded through the Companys
revolving credit facility. In the second quarter of 2004, the Company issued $160 million of 9-1⁄2% senior notes and used the proceeds to retire approximately $15.0 million of outstanding indebtedness under a then-existing credit facility, to pay
a special distribution to shareholders of approximately $134.6 million and for general corporate purposes.



Subsequent to October 1, 2004, the Company repurchased approximately $6.4 million of the $160 million principal amount of its 9-1⁄2% Senior Notes due
2011 from the open market using cash on hand for an aggregate purchase price of $6.9 million. The Company retired these notes and expects to incur a charge of $0.8 million during the fourth quarter of 2004 relating to the repurchase. Depending on
the Companys expected cash needs, the prevailing prices of the senior notes and other factors, the Company may repurchase additional senior notes from time to time in the open market or otherwise.



Cash Flows



For the first three quarters of 2004, cash provided by operating activities was $33.2 million, as compared to $22.9 million
during the first three quarters of 2003, an increase of $10.3 million or 44.8%. Cash used in investing activities was $6.8 million during the first three quarters of 2004, as compared to $2.4 million, all of which in both periods represented capital
expenditures. Cash used in financing activities was $9.4 million during the first three quarters of 2004, as compared to $19.1 million during the first three quarters of 2003. A cash inflow of $160 million, related to the issue of senior debt, was
substantially offset by a special dividend to shareholders and payment of financing costs during the forty week period ended October 1, 2004.



Interest expense will increase substantially as a result of the issuance of the $160 million in senior debt. Management believes that the cash generated
by the Companys operations will be sufficient to cover this interest expense as well as to fund planned capital expenditures, although there can be no assurances in this regard.



Liquidity



Management believes the principal indicators of the Companys liquidity are its cash position, remaining availability under its bank credit
facilities and its excess working capital. At October 1, 2004, the Companys cash position was $18.2 million, an increase of $16.9 million from December 26, 2003. Additionally, the Company had an unsecured revolving credit facility, with
maximum possible borrowings equal to $5.0 million. At October 1, 2004, the Company had no outstanding balances under this line of credit. Interest on outstanding borrowings related to this line of credit is calculated at the prime rate. Furthermore,
Da-Lites working capital position improved to $31.7 million (including $18.2 million of cash and cash equivalents) at October 1, 2004, from $13.7 million (including $1.3 million of cash and cash equivalents) at December 26, 2003.



In May 2004, Da-Lite issued $160 million in senior unsecured notes at
9-1⁄2% due 2011 with interest payable on May 15 and November 15 of each year. The notes are redeemable beginning on May 15, 2007 with an initial redemption price of 109.500% of their principal amount, plus accrued interest. In addition, before
May 15, 2007 the Company may redeem up to 35% of the notes at a redemption price of



12

##### Table of Contents

109.500% of their principal amount plus accrued interest, using the proceeds of sales of certain kinds of its capital stock.



Regular profit distributions to shareholders have been suspended from the
time of debt issuance through the remainder of 2004 to build some financial flexibility, but are expected to resume in 2005 subject to the covenants contained in the indenture relating to the notes. However, as a subchapter S corporation under the
Internal Revenue Code of 1986, the Company will continue to make quarterly tax distributions to its shareholders to pay estimated taxes relating to taxable income allocated to them by the Company.



The Company retired the outstanding $15.0 million balance of a $40.0 million
senior secured credit facility in May 2004 using a portion of the proceeds from the issuance of $160 million in senior unsecured notes and established a new $5 million unsecured revolving credit facility with a term of two years.



At October 1, 2004, the Companys Dutch subsidiary, Projecta, had a line
of credit, with maximum possible borrowings equal to approximately 1.5 million Euros or certain percentages of Projectas eligible accounts receivable and inventory. This facility is secured by Projectas accounts receivable and inventory.
At October 1, 2004, 0.6 million Euros were outstanding under this line of credit.



Capital Expenditures



Capital expenditures
were $6.8 million during the first three quarters of 2004 and $2.4 million during the first three quarters of 2003. The Companys management currently expects to spend approximately $9.0 million in capital expenditures in 2004, including
approximately $4.0 million of expenditures related to the construction of the Companys new 160,000 square foot facility in The Netherlands, which was completed in September 2004. The major capital expenditures during the first three quarters
of 2004 were related to construction of the facility in The Netherlands.

Distributions



As a subchapter S corporation under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, distributions are made by Da-Lite to its shareholders to pay estimated taxes
relating to taxable income allocated to them by the Company on a quarterly basis. Tax-related distributions were $2.6 million and $9.5 million in the third quarter of 2004 and during the first three quarters of 2004, respectively. The Company has
also made additional regular monthly distributions to its shareholders, which have been paid to them through April 2004 at the monthly rate of $1.0 million in the aggregate. In May 2004, the Company paid a special distribution to its shareholders of
approximately $134.6 million ($25,500 per share). Although the Company will continue to make quarterly tax distributions to its shareholders, additional regular monthly distributions during the remainder of 2004 are not expected. The Company expects
to resume regular monthly distributions to its shareholders in 2005, subject to the covenants contained in the indenture relating to the notes.



Inflation



The Companys management believes that inflation has not had a material effect on the results of its operations.



Environmental



The Company has incurred, and in the future will continue to incur, expenditures for matters relating to environmental
control, remediation, monitoring and compliance. The Companys management believes that compliance with current environmental laws and regulations is not likely to have a material adverse effect on the Companys financial condition, the
results of its operations or its liquidity; however, environmental laws and regulations have changed rapidly in recent years and the Company may become subject to more stringent environmental laws and regulations in the future.

|Item 3. | Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.
|------- | -----------------------------------------------------------



Concentration of Credit Risk



Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to significant concentrations of credit risk consist primarily of cash and accounts receivable.
The Company maintains cash and cash equivalents with a well-capitalized financial institution.



The Companys sales are not materially dependent on a single customer or a small group of customers. No one individual customer balance represents more than 10% of the Companys total outstanding receivables
as of October 1, 2004. Credit risk associated with the Companys receivables is representative of the geographic, industry and customer diversity associated with the Companys global business.



The Company also maintains credit controls for evaluating and granting
customer credit. As a result, we may require that customers provide some type of financial guarantee in certain circumstances.



Foreign Currency Risk



Da-Lite routinely uses forward exchange contracts to hedge raw material purchases from vendors outside of the country of purchase. Gains and losses on
these contracts offset changes in the related foreign currency-denominated costs.



Interest Rate Risk



Da-Lite does not have any
variable rate debt outstanding and the Companys management does not foresee the need to pursue additional debt financing at this time. Interest related to outstanding balances in the Companys $5.0 million revolving credit facility is
calculated at the prime rate and the Company had no outstanding borrowings on October 1, 2004.



|Item 4. | Controls and Procedures.
|------- | ------------------------



(a) Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures. Based on the evaluation required by Rule 15d-15(b) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, the principal
executive officer and principal financial officer of the Da-Lite have concluded that Da-Lites disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 15d-15(b)), as of the end of the period covered by this report, were effective to ensure that
the information required to be disclosed by Da-Lite in reports that it files or submits under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time period specified in SEC rules and forms. The disclosure
controls and procedures are designed to only provide reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objections.



(b) Changes in internal control over financial reporting. There was no change in Da-Lites internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the last
fiscal quarter that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, Da-Lites internal control over financial reporting.
