Introduction

         Woodworkers Warehouse, Inc. ("We" or the "Company") emerged from
Chapter 11 bankruptcy on October 29, 2001 following a reorganization which
included the sale of certain non-core businesses and a merger with Trend-Lines,
Inc. in which we were the surviving entity. At that time, we changed our name
from Trend-Lines, Inc. to Woodworkers Warehouse, Inc. to emphasize our focus on
our Woodworkers Warehouse stores and catalogs. For financial reporting purposes,
October 27, 2001 was considered the emergence date as it was a period end and
activity for the two days was immaterial.

Bankruptcy Reorganization

         On August 11, 2000, we filed petitions in the United States Bankruptcy
Court for the District of Massachusetts under Chapter 11 of the United States
Bankruptcy Code. The First Amended Joint Reorganization Plan of Trend-Lines,
Inc. and the Official Committee of Unsecured Creditors, as modified by the Joint
Motion to Approve Nonmaterial Modification to the First Amended Joint
Reorganization Plan of Trend-Lines, Inc. and the Official Committee of Unsecured
Creditors (the "Plan") was confirmed by the Bankruptcy Court on October 17, 2001
and we emerged from bankruptcy on October 29, 2001. Pursuant to the Plan, on
October 29, 2001, Trend-Lines, Inc. merged with and into its wholly owned
subsidiary Woodworkers Warehouse, Inc. and Woodworkers Warehouse, Inc. became
the surviving corporation. In connection with the reorganization, on the date we
emerged from bankruptcy, all of Trend-Lines' shares of Class A Common Stock,
Class B Common Stock, preferred stock, treasury stock, and outstanding stock
options under the 1993 Employee Stock Option Plan and the 1994 Non-Qualified
Stock Option Plan for Non-Employee Directors were cancelled. Under the Plan we
are required to issue new shares of our common stock to certain unsecured
creditors to pay pre-petition liabilities and to management, as of October 29,
2001. As of the date of this Form 10-K, we have not yet issued the shares of new
common stock. The Bankruptcy Court has not yet issued a final decree, and such
decree is delayed by, among other things, the fact that we have not issued the
shares of common stock to our unsecured creditors as a result of several claims
that remain pending.

History

         We are a specialty retailer of power and hand tools and accessories. We
were initially incorporated in Massachusetts in 1981, under the name
Trend-Lines, Inc., and in 1983 we began mailing our Trend-Lines catalog and
opened a Woodworkers Warehouse outlet store in our distribution center. Our
principal executive offices are located at 126 Oxford Street, Lynn,
Massachusetts, 01901 and our telephone number is (781) 853-0900.

         We opened our first Woodworkers Warehouse retail store in 1986 and, as
of February 23, 2002, we operated 98 Woodworkers Warehouse stores. Our
Woodworkers Warehouse retail stores are located in the New England and
Mid-Atlantic regions.

         In January 1995, we expanded our retail operations by acquiring 17 Post
Tool stores and a distribution center for those stores. On February 27, 2001, we
rejected leases for 13 existing Post Tool retail stores and a distribution
center for these stores and consolidated the inventory into our operations. On
April 19, 2001 we sold the leasehold rights and furniture, fixtures and
equipment and inventory with respect to seven of the Post Tool stores, and all
of the automotive inventory located at the Post Tool distribution center. The
total sales price for these assets was approximately $1,350,000. As of April 19,
2001, we no longer operated any Post Tool stores.

         We purchased the Golf Day name and mailing list in 1989, mailed our
first Golf Day catalog in 1990 and opened a Golf Day outlet store in our
distribution center in January 1991. In January 1998, we expanded our golf
retail operations by acquiring 13 Nevada Bob's franchised stores located in New
England, which we converted to Golf Day stores. As part of our reorganization
strategy, we disposed of our Golf Day retail stores, Golf Day mail order catalog
and GolfDay.com web site during the third and fourth quarters of the fiscal year
ended February 24, 2001 ("Fiscal 2000") and did not operate any Golf Day stores
in the fiscal year ended February 23, 2002 ("Fiscal 2001").

Payments to Bank of America

         From the date we filed for bankruptcy through our reorganization and
emergence from bankruptcy, we paid Bank of America $39,343,753 which sum is
comprised of the following:

         (i)      $20,773,000 from the proceeds generated from the liquidation
                  of the Golf Day inventory;

         (ii)     $6,070,753 in interim payments; and

         (iii)    $12,500,000 as additional payments from cash on hand in Fiscal
                  2001.

         As part of our reorganization, upon emerging from bankruptcy, we
entered into a $30 million Senior Secured Credit Facility with Bank of America,
which matures on October 30, 2003. (See Item 7, Management Discussion and
Analysis: Liquidity and Capital Resources.)

Summary of Reorganization Plan

         As discussed above, we reorganized and emerged from bankruptcy on
October 29, 2001, pursuant to the Plan. Under the Plan, we treated our creditors
as follows:


                                       4
<PAGE>


         Class 1: Bank of America Bank Credit Facility

         On October 29, 2001, we paid the outstanding balance on our
debtor-in-possession financing in connection with our entering into a new $30
million senior secured revolving credit facility with Bank of America.

         Class 2: Other Secured Claims

         These secured claims consisted of various vendors from whom we leased
furniture, fixtures and equipment for retail stores and corporate offices. These
stakeholders received (a) some or all of the collateral securing their
respective leases, (b) cash in an amount equal to the proceeds received from the
sale of the collateral or (c) such other treatment as was agreed upon by us, the
creditors committee and the respective holder. If the value of the collateral
securing a Class 2 claim was less than the total amount of the claim, we treated
the difference as a Class 5 general unsecured claim.

         Class 3: Other Priority Claims

         These claims are claims other than administrative, professional fee or
priority tax claims entitled to priority pursuant to Section 507(a) of the
Bankruptcy Code. All of the administrative and professional fee claims and most
of the priority tax claims were paid in Fiscal 2001. Some priority tax claims
have been paid in the current fiscal year and some claims remain unpaid.

         Class 4: Convenience Claims

         These claims are claims that would otherwise be a Class 5 general
unsecured claim but they were equal to or less than $2,000 or were reduced to
$2,000 pursuant to the election by the holder of the Claim. Each holder of a
Class 4 claim will receive cash in an amount equal to 25% of such claim.

         Class 5: General Unsecured Claims

         These claims are pre-petition trade claims, reclamation claims and
other general unsecured claims and were deemed to be impaired by the Plan. Each
holder of a Class 5 claim was to receive in full satisfaction of such allowed
claims, its pro rata share, based on the principal amount of each holder's
claim, of $2,000,000 on January 15, 2002 and 5,280,000 shares of new common
stock of the reorganized company as of October 29, 2001. After consultation with
claimants representing a majority of the dollar value of the claims, we deferred
payment of the $2,000,000. As of the date hereof we have not made any payments
to settle the Class 5 claims and have not issued any shares of the new common
stock due to delays in the processing and settlement of certain unsecured
claims. Even if we settled the remaining unsecured claims, at this time we would
not be able to make any payments to these creditors because of restrictions
under our bank facility.

         Class 6: Common Stock Equity Interest and Claims

         As of our emergence from bankruptcy, all common stock equity interests
in us were extinguished and the certificates and all other documents
representing such common stock equity interests were deemed cancelled and of no
force or effect. The holders of the common stock equity interests of
Trend-Lines, Inc. did not receive or retain any interest or property under the
Plan.

The forgoing description is qualified in its entirety by the Plan, as filed as
an exhibit to the Form 8-K of Woodworkers Warehouse, Inc., the successor of
Trend-Lines, Inc., on October 31, 2001, and included as an exhibit hereto by
reference.

The Woodworking Tool Industry

         According to the "Woodworking in America"(TM) survey sponsored in 1998
by the American Woodworker Magazine (the "Woodworking Survey"), approximately
11% of the United States adult population, or nearly 20.5 million people, are
involved in woodworking activities, spending more than $7.8 billion annually on
equipment and accessories used specifically for woodworking projects. Major
items in this category include power tools; wood finishes; hand tools; blades,
bits and cutters; glue and adhesives; abrasives; sharpening equipment; books and
other equipment and supplies. Approximately 43% of the total amount spent, or
$3.3 billion, is spent on power tools.

         Woodworkers range from home workshop enthusiasts to professionals
involved in a wide variety of activities, including home construction and
remodeling, cabinet and furniture making and other woodworking projects. More
advanced woodworkers participate in activities that require a greater skill
level, such as cabinet making, architectural woodworking, furniture making,
millwork and veneering. According to the Woodworking Survey, woodworkers have
been involved in woodworking an average of approximately fifteen years, and the
typical woodworker spends an average of more than six hours per week in the
workshop. Further, as interest and/or skill level increases, factors such as a
wide variety and selection of merchandise and availability of hard-to-find items
and well-known brand name products become more important to the woodworking
customer.

Current Business Strategy

         Our business strategy is now focused on our Woodworkers Warehouse
stores and catalog. We are seeking to enhance our position and to maximize our
future growth as a leading specialty retailer of power and hand tools and
accessories. The key elements of our business strategy are as follows:

         Selected net expansion of retail store operations. We intend to
continue to focus our retail store openings in existing markets or markets in
close proximity to those in which we currently operate to take advantage of our
centralized distribution system. While we are not currently opening any new
stores, we anticipate opening new stores in the future, although we can make no
assurances as to when or if we will open any such stores. Under our credit
facility we are limited to net store openings, and we may relocate stores from
time to time.

         Complementary store and catalog operations. The strong name recognition
of our Woodworkers Warehouse catalog, combined with the customer base and market
knowledge that have resulted from our catalog operations, is expected to
facilitate the expansion of our retail stores. We use catalog information to,
among other things, identify new store markets and determine the appropriate
product mix for our retail stores.


                                       6
<PAGE>

         Cost-effective operations. We strive to have low costs of operations.
By eliminating non-core businesses, establishing a single distribution center
for our catalog and retail store business, concentrating our market penetration
in the New England and Mid-Atlantic regions, consolidating the management of our
catalog and retail business, and sharing within divisions parallel information,
telemarketing and distribution systems, we have increased our operating
efficiency. We believe the changes will allow us to put competitively priced
products on the market.

         Breadth and depth of product selection. We offer a breadth and depth of
product selection, including many hard-to-find items, and high quality brand
name and private label merchandise.

         Low prices and matching product/price guarantee. Our competitive
pricing strategy features everyday low prices, special sales and promotions, and
a guarantee to match competitor prices.

         Expert customer service. We train our employees to explain and
demonstrate to customers the use and operation of our merchandise and to develop
good salesmanship. Their skills are further developed through on-the-job
training combined with the use of Company-developed manuals. Sales personnel
attend in-house training sessions conducted by experienced sales people or
manufacturers' representatives and receive sales, product and other information
in periodic meetings with managers.

         Customer convenience. We strive to maximize convenience to our retail
store customers by providing ample parking and fast in-and-out service.

Products and Merchandising

         We offer our customers breadth and depth of product selection,
including many hard-to-find items, high quality brand name and private label
merchandise, everyday low prices, a matching product/price guarantee, expert
customer service and convenience. By offering these services, we believe we are
able to compete successfully against major home centers, mass merchandisers and
hardware stores.

         Our Woodworkers Warehouse stores have been successful particularly when
located near home center stores such as Home Depot, Home Quarters, and Lowes.

         Our stores primarily carry woodworking power and hand tools and
accessories. We select products based on quality, value, durability, historic
product demand, safety and customer appeal. We constantly monitor our customers'
product preferences through inventory and sales data provided by our computer
system and catalog operations.

         Our stores and catalog each serve a wide range of woodworking tool
customers, from home workshop enthusiasts to professionals. Our customers are
seeking hand and power tools to help them with a wide variety of activities,
including home construction and remodeling, cabinet and furniture making and
other woodworking projects. Our customers are generally experienced in
woodworking and carpentry and desire high quality brand name tools. We attract
professionals who are buying tools for use in their trade. To all our customers
we offer professional tools, knowledgeable sales people and fast in-and-out
service. We also offer tool repair that we contract out to an outside service
company.

Business Segments

Retail Operations

         We design our stores to be destination stores and maximize convenience
to our customers by providing ample parking and fast in-and-out service.
Ninety-six of our stores are located in strip malls and two are in free-standing
buildings.

         At February 23, 2002, we operated 98 Woodworkers Warehouse stores
located as follows: 26 in New York, 13 in Pennsylvania, 17 in Massachusetts, 13
in New Jersey, nine in New Hampshire, seven in Connecticut, seven in Maine,
three in Delaware, two in Rhode Island, and one in Vermont.

         We train our store employees to explain and demonstrate to customers
the use and operation of our merchandise and to develop good salesmanship.
Skills are enhanced through on-the-job training and Company-developed manuals.
Sales personnel attend in-house training sessions conducted by experienced
salespeople or manufacturer representatives and receive sales, product and other
information in periodic meetings with managers.

Catalog Operations

         Until Fiscal 1999, we produced four versions of each of the Trend-Lines
and Golf Day catalogs annually. After filing for bankruptcy, in Fiscal 2000, we
produced one version of each of the Trend-Lines and Golf Day catalogs, and
mailed approximately 8 million copies of our Trend-Lines catalog and
approximately 5 million copies of our Golf Day catalog. In Fiscal 2001, we
renamed our catalog Woodworkers Warehouse, produced only one version of our
catalog and mailed it to 1.2 million customers. As of February 23, 2002, our
catalog mailing list totaled approximately 2.2 million customers (comprised of
selected previous buyers), and is supplemented with various rented lists. We
mail catalogs to prospective purchasers throughout the United States.

         We send catalogs to persons on our mailing list, persons who have
requested them, and persons on lists which we rent from or exchange with
compatible companies. We continually prospect for new customers by testing new
mailing lists, media and other programs to cost-effectively increase the size of
our proprietary customer mailing lists. We also strive to generate more
incremental revenue from existing customers. We analyze what we sell at our
retail stores and in our catalog, and based on this analysis and through our
merchandising and inventory system we monitor the mix of products to maximize
profitability and satisfy our customers' needs.

         We maintain a sophisticated call management distribution system via our
incoming toll-free "800" numbers. This system distributes catalog orders and
customer inquiries to trained customer service representatives, and provides
detailed call reporting and analysis. Currently, we use an outside fulfillment
center to receive and transmit catalog orders. We also provide technical
assistance to our customers, on a toll-call basis. We usually ship orders within
48 hours after receipt, and offer express delivery. We design our catalogs
in-house with desk top publishing equipment.

         For Financial Information on our segments please see note 15 of our
Financial Statements which are attached as an exhibit to the Form 10-K.


                                       8
<PAGE>

Marketing and Advertising

         We track the results of all advertising to determine future advertising
programs and expenditures.

         We promote retail store sales primarily through special store
promotions, direct mail circulars, geographically concentrated newspaper and
radio advertising, and point-of-sale materials posted and distributed in our
stores. We use extensive special product promotions and sales, combination
offers, coupons, and other devices to attract customers. We promote catalog
sales by catalog mailings.

E-Commerce

         We launched our WoodworkersWarehouse.com, GolfDay.com and
Trend-Lines.com websites in Fiscal 1999. In Fiscal 2000, we discontinued the
GolfDay.com and Trend-Lines.com websites. Our WoodworkersWarehouse.com website
augments our other promotional activities and demonstrates our e-commerce
capabilities. We take orders and make sales on our website, but website sales
are not material to our operations.

Suppliers

         The power and hand tool and accessory business relies on major vendors
with well-known brand names, as well as smaller specialty vendors. In Fiscal
2001, one of our vendors accounted for approximately 31.5% of our purchases. We
believe our vendor relationships are satisfactory.

         In Fiscal 2001, we purchased approximately 6.0% of our products from
overseas vendors. A substantial portion of the tool products sold under our
private labels are purchased from overseas vendors, a majority of which are from
Taiwan and, to a lesser extent, Korea, China, England, Hong Kong, Sweden, Japan
and Germany. This portion of our business is subject to the risks generally
associated with conducting business abroad, including adverse fluctuations in
currency rates, changes in import duties or quotas, the imposition of taxes or
other charges on imports, and disruptions or delays in shipment or
transportation. To date, these factors have not had a material adverse impact on
our operations.

Product Distribution

         During Fiscal 2000 and for much of Fiscal 2001, our primary
distribution facility was a leased 286,000 square foot center in Revere,
Massachusetts, which is just outside of Boston. The facility also housed our
corporate offices and customer service operation during Fiscal 2000. In August
2001, we terminated the Revere lease and moved our corporate offices to Lynn,
Massachusetts and our distribution center to a 99,000 square foot center in
Amesbury, Massachusetts. The distribution center serves both our catalog and
retail stores. We have located our distribution center near our stores to reduce
labor and freight costs. We maintain and restock inventories promptly and
efficiently from our new distribution center.

         Two prior leases, one in Chelsea, Massachusetts for 51,000 square feet
and one for a 48,000 square foot distribution center in Hayward, California for
our Post Tool stores, were terminated before our emergence from bankruptcy as
part of our reorganization.


                                       9
<PAGE>

Management Information Systems

         We have invested significant resources in our management information
systems. These systems, based in our headquarters, consist of a full range of
retail, financial and merchandising systems and include inventory distribution
and control, order fulfillment and inventory replenishment, staffing, sales and
marketing analyses and financial and merchandise reporting. We also have an
in-store point-of-sale computer system which provides operational data to
management on a daily basis that we use to track sales and forecast inventory
requirements and an inventory control system which provides for automated
replenishment of merchandise to each of our stores. Our inventory control system
allows us to consider store sales through the close of business of the previous
day when processing weekly store replacement.

         We also have a catalog management information system which supports our
entire catalog cycle from purchasing merchandise and planning, through
merchandise sales and delivery to customers' homes. The system allows us to
manage our catalog customer database of approximately two million customers.
By tracking and analyzing our catalog database we can:

            o     focus our catalog mailings on persons more likely to purchase
                  our products;

            o     analyze merchandise trends and buying patterns; and

            o     track the effectiveness of customer promotional merchandising.

Competition

         We experience competition in all aspects of our business operations,
including competition for customers, locations and products and in other
important aspects of our business. Our primary competitors include electrical,
plumbing and building materials supply houses, lumber yards, home improvement
stores and other local, regional or national hardware stores, as well as
discount department stores and any other channel of distribution that offers
products that we sell. Our business is highly competitive, and we may face new
types of competitors if we enter new markets or lines of business.

         Many of our competitors are substantially larger and have greater
financial and other resources. The entrance of new competitors or the expansion
of operations by existing competitors in our market areas could have a material
adverse effect on our results of operations.

         We believe we can compete effectively on the basis of price, selection
and service, all of which allow us to attract customers to our stores. We
believe we differentiate ourselves from most of our competitors through our
innovative and intelligent customer service system and the breadth and depth of
our product selection.

Registered Trademarks and Service Marks

         We have registered the following trademark: Woodworkers Warehouse(R).
We intend to continue to register, when we deem it appropriate, trademarks,
trade names and service marks.


                                       10

Regulatory Matters

         Our catalog business is subject to the Merchandise Mail Order Rule and
related regulations promulgated by the Federal Trade Commission, which prohibit
unfair methods of competition and unfair or deceptive acts or practices in
connection with mail order sales, and require sellers of mail order merchandise
to conform to certain rules of conduct with respect to shipping dates and
shipping delays. Management believes we are in compliance with such regulations.

Employees

         We rely on many part-time, flex-time and seasonal employees to meet our
needs. At February 23, 2002, we employed 604 persons, of whom 412 were full-time
and 192 were part-time. We consider our employee relations to be satisfactory.

Subsequent Events

         On July 29, 2002 we named Rick C. Welker as our new chief financial
officer replacing Ronald Franklin. As of August 1, 2002, Mr. Franklin is no
longer with us.

ITEM 2. PROPERTIES

New Corporate Headquarters and Distribution Center

         On June 29, 2001 we assigned the lease of our then principal executive
offices and distribution center in Revere, Massachusetts for $4,500,000, and the
assumption of some of our outstanding obligations. The Revere lease was for an
aggregate of approximately 286,000 square feet.

         At the same time, we leased property for both a new warehouse and
distribution center and a new corporate headquarters. We entered into a lease
for a location in Amesbury, Massachusetts for our new warehouse and distribution
center, and a lease with for a location in Lynn, Massachusetts for our new
corporate headquarters. The fiscal 2002 annualized rent, square footage and
expiration of the term of these leases are set forth in the following table.

         Two leases, one for a 51,000 square foot warehouse in Chelsea,
Massachusetts and one for a 48,000 square foot distribution center in Hayward,
California for our Post Tool stores, were terminated prior to our emergence from
bankruptcy as part of our reorganization in Fiscal 2001.

         We currently own property located at 1 Batchelder Road, Seabrook, New
Hampshire (the "Seabrook Property"). The Seabrook Property is a 9,070 square
foot building. A portion of the premises was formerly used as a Golf Day store.
Approximately 5,000 square feet of the premises continues to be used as a
Woodworkers Warehouse store. Bank of America has a mortgage on the Seabrook
Property as security for amounts due to it under our credit facility.

         At February 23, 2002, we operated 98 stores, all but one of which were
leased. The typical lease provides for an initial term of five to ten years,
with renewal options permitting us to extend the term. In each case, we pay
fixed annual rent. Ninety percent of our leases provide for an increase in
annual fixed rental payments during the lease term and allow us to terminate the
lease before the end of the term without penalty if we give proper notice. Most
leases require us to pay real estate taxes, maintenance and repair costs,
insurance, utilities and, in shopping center locations, to make contributions
toward common area operating costs. At February 23, 2002, our leases, excluding
lease renewal options, were scheduled to expire as follows:

ITEM 3. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

         We filed a petition in the United States Bankruptcy Court for the
District of Massachusetts under Chapter 11 of the United States Bankruptcy Code
on August 11, 2000. The First Amended Joint Reorganization Plan of Trend-Lines,
Inc. and the Official Committee of Unsecured Creditors dated as of September 7,
2001, as modified by the Joint Motion to Approve Nonmaterial Modification to the
First Amended Joint Reorganization Plan of Trend-Lines, Inc. and the Official
Committee of Unsecured Creditors was confirmed by the Bankruptcy Court on
October 17, 2001, with an effective date of October 29, 2001. On the effective
date, we emerged from bankruptcy and merged into our wholly-owned subsidiary,
Woodworkers Warehouse, Inc. Woodworkers Warehouse, Inc. became the surviving
corporation. A final decree has not been entered at this time, and such a decree
is delayed by, among other things, the fact that we have not issued the shares
of common stock to our unsecured creditors as a result of several claims that
remain pending.

         Management believes that except for the bankruptcy, any other legal
actions that are pending against the Company have arisen in the ordinary course
of business and that the liability which may result from any such action would
not have a material adverse impact on our consolidated financial statements.


ITEM 4. SUBMISSION OF MATTERS TO A VOTE OF SECURITY HOLDERS

         None.

ITEM 5. MARKET FOR REGISTRANT'S COMMON EQUITY AND RELATED STOCKHOLDER MATTERS

Market Price

         Until September 12, 2000, our Class A Common Stock was included in the
Nasdaq National Market under the symbol "TRND." Prior to June 23, 1994, there
was no public market for the Class A Common Stock. On September 12, 2000 our
Class A Common Stock was delisted because we did not meet the listing
requirements of the Nasdaq National Market.

         On our reorganization and emergence from bankruptcy on October 29,
2001, all of our Class A Common Stock, as well as our Class B Common Stock,
treasury stock, preferred stock and outstanding stock options under the 1993
Employee Stock Option Plan and the 1994 Non-Qualified Stock Option Plan for
Non-Employee Directors were cancelled. Under the plan, we are required to issue
5,280,000 shares of new common stock pro rata to our general unsecured creditors
to pay pre-petition liabilities and 360,000 shares of new common stock to
management. As of the date of this Form 10-K, these shares had not yet been
issued. When the shares are issued they will be deemed to have been issued as of
October 29, 2001.

          The table which follows sets forth the high and low sales prices for
our Class A Common Stock for the periods prior to October 29, 2002 and for our
new Common Stock after October 29, 2001. Since October 29, 2001 our stock has
not traded. Quotations listed for periods after September 12, 2000 were quoted
by a dealer participating in the over-the-counter market and may not reflect
actual retail sales. Quotations listed for periods prior to September 12, 2000
are as reported by the Nasdaq National Market.

         For the above reasons, we do not believe that the historical results in
the table which follow are indicative of the future performance of our common
stock when such stock is issued.

                                                                High        Low

<PAGE>

         At August 1, 2002 there were no shares of our common stock issued and
outstanding. Under the Plan, we are required to issue 5,280,000 shares of common
stock to our general unsecured creditors and 360,000 shares of common stock to
management, effective as of October 29, 2001. We do not at this time know how
many holders of record there will be when we issue our common stock.

Dividends

         We intend to retain our earnings to finance the development of our
business and for working capital purposes, and therefore we do not anticipate
paying any cash dividends in the foreseeable future. We have never declared or
paid any dividends. In addition, our current credit facility restricts our
ability to pay cash dividends.

         Effective November 27, 2001, we established a long term incentive plan
("Incentive Plan") which provides for the granting of stock options, stock
appreciation rights and restricted stock. We reserved 1,500,000 shares of common
stock for awards under the Incentive Plan. The Incentive Plan and the shares
reserved for issuance under the Incentive Plan were approved by the Bankruptcy
Court. Under the Incentive Plan, stock options are granted at 100% of the fair
market value of the common stock on the date of the grant. We determined that
our fair market value was $0.26 per share for each share we are required to
issue under the Plan. The per share value is equal to our value as determined by
an independent third party after a valuation performed in conjunction with our
emergence from bankruptcy. All options thus far granted vest over three years
with 33% vesting on each anniversary of the grant. All vested options shall be
exercisable for a period of ten years from date of grant. As of July 1, 2002
there were no currently exercisable options.

ITEM 6. SELECTED FINANCIAL DATA

The following table sets forth certain financial data with respect to the
Company for each of the last five fiscal years.

We emerged from Chapter 11 bankruptcy on October 29, 2001 following a
reorganization which included the sale of certain non-core businesses and a
merger with Trend-Lines, Inc., our sole parent, in which we were the surviving
entity. For financial reporting purposes, October 27, 2001 was considered the
emergence date as it was a period end and activity for the two days was
immaterial. For financial reporting purposes, Fiscal 2001 has been segregated
into two periods: the four months ended February 23, 2002 for the "successor
company" and the eight months ended October 27, 2001 for the "predecessor
company". Upon our emergence from bankruptcy, we adopted fresh start accounting.
Our financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the American
Institute of Certified Public Accountants Statement of Position 90-7: "Financial
Reporting by Entities in Reorganization Under the Bankruptcy Code" ("SOP 90-7").
SOP 90-7 required us to use the purchase method of accounting and therefore, we
recorded the fair value of assets and assumed liabilities of the reorganized
company at October 27, 2001. Accordingly, the accompanying balance sheet as of
February 23, 2002 is not comparable in certain material respects to such balance
sheet as of any prior period since the balance sheet as of February 23, 2002 is
that of a reorganized entity.

ITEM 7. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS
        OF OPERATIONS

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Our accounting policies are provided on pages F-8 through F-12 of this Form
10-K. We believe the most critical accounting policies are Revenue Recognition,
Inventories, Prepaid Catalog Expenses, Lease Interest, and Income Taxes. Our
financial statements are prepared in accordance with accounting principles
generally accepted in the United States of America ("US GAAP"). The application
of US GAAP relative to our critical accounting policies requires us to make
estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amount of assets and
liabilities, financial statement disclosure concerning contingent assets and
liabilities and revenue and expenses during the reporting period. We review
estimates and assumptions used in the application of US GAAP on a regular basis.
However it is possible that these estimates and assumptions may change and this
change could be material to our financial position. We base our estimates on
historical experience and on various other assumptions that are believed to be
reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for
making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are
not readily apparent from other sources.

Revenue Recognition

Revenue from retail operations is recognized at the time of sale. Revenue from
catalog sales is recognized upon shipment to the customer. Allowance for sales
returns, a component of net sales, is booked in the period in which the related
sales are recorded. An allowance of $70,000 has been recorded as of February 23,
2002. Income received from memberships sold to our catalog customers is deferred
over the period of the related membership.

Inventories

Merchandise inventories are carried at the lower of cost or market with cost
determined on a weighted average cost method. Under fresh start accounting, we
recorded a $2.2 million write-down of inventory at October 27, 2001 to record
the balance at its estimated net realizable value. The balance at February 23,
2002 in our total lower of cost or market reserve was $0.6 million. If actual
market conditions are less favorable than those projected by our management, or
if liquidation of the inventory is more difficult than anticipated, additional
inventory write-downs may be required.

Prepaid Catalog Expenses

We capitalize direct costs relating to the production and distribution of our
mail-order catalogs. These costs are charged to operations over the period
during which revenues are derived from the mailings, which is predominately one
year or less from the date of mailing. The prepaid catalog balance at February
23, 2002 was $267,297.

Lease Interest

Lease interest represents the fair value assigned to our lease rights under
fresh start accounting and is being amortized as a charge to rent expense over
the remaining lease terms. Accumulated amortization was $166,239 at February 23,
2002. The recoverability of the carrying value of lease interest is dependent
on our ability to generate sufficient future cash flows from operations at each
leased site, or in the case of a sale or disposition of a lease or leases, the
continuation of similar favorable market rents. Accordingly, recoverability of
this asset could be significantly affected by future economic market and
competitive factors and is subject to the inherent uncertainty associated with
estimates.


                                       17
<PAGE>

Income Taxes

We account for income taxes under Statement of Financial Standards No. 109
"Accounting for Income Taxes." Accordingly, we record a valuation allowance to
reduce our deferred tax assets to an amount that is more likely than not to be
realized.

The above listing is not intended to be a comprehensive list of all of our
accounting policies. In many cases, the accounting treatment of a particular
transaction is specifically dictated by generally accepted accounting
principles, with no need for management's judgment in their application.

Fresh start reporting required us to restate our assets and liabilities to
reflect their reorganization value, which approximates fair value at the date of
our reorganization. In so restating, we were required to allocate reorganization
value to our assets based upon their estimated fair values. Each liability
existing on the date the Plan was confirmed by the Bankruptcy Court, other than
deferred taxes, was stated at the present value of the amount to be paid.

Our reorganization value of $1,488,000 was $400,000 less than the fair value of
net assets. In accordance with the purchase method of accounting, the excess of
the revalued net assets over the reorganization value (negative goodwill) was
allocated to reduce proportionately the value assigned to noncurrent assets. The
calculated value of the reorganized company was based on a variety of estimates
and assumptions about future circumstances and events. Such estimates and
assumptions are inherently subject to significant economic and competitive
uncertainties beyond our control.

Overview

We adopted fresh start accounting pursuant to the American Institute of
Certified Public Accountant's Statement of Position 90-7, "Financial Reporting
by Entities in Reorganization Under the Bankruptcy Code" ("SOP 90-7"), during
the third quarter of Fiscal 2001. The adoption resulted in a change in the basis
of accounting in our underlying assets and liabilities as of October 29, 2001,
the date of our emergence from Bankruptcy. On October 29, 2001, Trend-Lines,
Inc. (the "Predecessor Company") merged into its wholly owned subsidiary,
Woodworkers Warehouse, Inc., with Woodworkers Warehouse, Inc. being the
surviving corporation emerging from bankruptcy (for purposes of reflecting the
financial reporting period following our emergence from bankruptcy, the
"Successor Company"). For financial reporting purposes, October 27, 2001 was
considered the emergence date as it was a period end and activity for the two
days was immaterial. Fresh start reporting required us to restate our assets and
liabilities to reflect their reorganization value, which approximates their fair
value at the date of the reorganization. In so restating, SOP 90-7 required us
to allocate our reorganization value to our assets based upon their estimated
fair values. Accordingly, the Fiscal 2001 and Fiscal 2000 financial statements
are not comparable. For financial reporting purposes, Fiscal 2001 has been
segregated into two periods: the eight months ended October 27, 2001 (the
"Predecessor Company Period") and the four months ended February 23, 2002 (the
"Successor Company Period"). For purposes of our Management's Discussion and
Analysis, we have combined the actual results of operations for the Predecessor
Company and the Successor Company, as pro forma combined 2001 ("Pro Forma
Combined Fiscal 2001") operating results to present a more meaningful
comparative analysis to prior fiscal year operating results. The Predecessor
Company and Successor Company financial information is from our Consolidated
Financial Statements and no additional adjustments have been made to the Pro
Forma Combined Fiscal Year 2001 financial information. In addition to the basis
in accounting differences noted above, our operating results for Pro Forma
Combined Fiscal 2001, Fiscal 2000 and Fiscal 1999 were significantly impacted by
items associated with our bankruptcy including extraordinary debt forgiveness,
and restructuring activities.

Results of Operation

Pro Forma Combined Fiscal 2001 compared to Fiscal 2000

         All references to Fiscal 2001 numbers are to numbers derived from Pro
Forma Combined Fiscal 2001 detailed above. Fiscal 2001 ended on February 23,
2002; Fiscal 2000 ended on February 24, 2001; Fiscal 1999 ended on February 26,
2000.

         Net sales for Fiscal 2001 decreased by $43.6 million or 28.2% from
$154.7 million for Fiscal 2000 to $111.1 million for Fiscal 2001. Net retail
sales for Fiscal 2001 decreased $34.7 million or 24.6% from $140.9 for Fiscal
2000 to $106.2 million for Fiscal 2001. Net catalog sales for Fiscal 2001
decreased $8.8 million or 63.8% from $13.8 million for Fiscal 2000 to $5.0
million for Fiscal 2001. Decrease in revenue of retail stores is attributable to
planned reduction in the number of retail stores and various adversities due to
our bankruptcy proceedings, including the closing of 13 Woodworkers Warehouse
Stores and the discontinuance of our Post Tool operations. The decrease in net
catalog sales was attributable to a decrease in the number of catalogs mailed
from $1.2 million in Fiscal 2000 to $0.8 million in Fiscal 2001.


                                       19

         Gross profit for Fiscal 2001 decreased by $10.7 million or 24.5% from
$43.7 million for Fiscal 2000 to $33.0 million for Fiscal 2001. This decrease is
a result of our shedding non-core businesses, closing 13 Woodworkers Warehouse
stores, and reducing the number of catalogs we mail. In addition, under fresh
start accounting, we adopted full absorption accounting for distribution cost
and vendor rebates directly related to inventory purchases. As a result of this
adoption, we increased our cost of goods sold for distribution costs and
reduced our costs of goods sold for vendor rebates which resulted in a net
increase of $0.8 to costs of goods sold. We capitalized a portion of these costs
and rebates to inventory based upon inventory turns.

         As a percentage of net sales, gross profit increased from 28.3% for
Fiscal 2000 to 29.7% for Fiscal 2001. During Fiscal 2000 we maintained an
aggressive promotional selling strategy to maximize cash and inventory levels,
to enhance product mix in the stores, and to increase turns. The gross margin
percentage increase was negatively impacted by reduced catalog sales which
traditionally have higher gross margin than retail sales.

         Selling, general and administrative expenses for Fiscal 2001 decreased
$19.7 million or 33.7% from $58.5 million for Fiscal 2000 to $38.8 million for
Fiscal 2001. As a percentage of net sales, selling, general and administrative
expenses decreased 2.9%, from 37.8% of net sales in Fiscal 2000 to 34.9% of net
sales in Fiscal 2001. The decrease in selling, general and administrative
expenses was primarily due to the reduction of expenses in connection with our
reorganization and the change to recording distribution cost and vendor rebates
in costs of goods sold under fresh start accounting. In addition, we converted
fixture and equipment leases from operating leases to capital leases. As a
result, operating lease expense decreased substantially.

         Reorganization charges were $1.6 million for Fiscal 2001 compared to
$2.3 million for Fiscal 2000, a decrease of $0.7 million. The reorganization
charges were directly associated with the Chapter 11 proceedings including
professional fees, the loss on disposal of Post Tool offset by the sale of
leased assets. There were no additional expenses related to the Chapter 11
reorganization proceedings after the emergence date of October 29, 2001.

         Due to the impact of the results described above, our operating loss
decreased from $17.1 million in Fiscal 2000 to $7.5 million in Fiscal 2001, a
decrease of $9.6 million.

         Interest expense, net of interest income, for Fiscal 2001 decreased by
46.2% or $2.4 million from $5.2 million in Fiscal 2000 to $2.8 million in Fiscal
2001. The change in interest expense was attributable to the decrease in the
average amount outstanding under our credit facility.

         On August 11, 2000, we disposed of our golf business resulting in a
loss on disposal of $21.8 million and we recorded a loss from discontinued
operations of $9.0 million in Fiscal 2000. In Fiscal 2001, an additional
loss on disposal of Golf Day of $0.3 million was recorded.

<PAGE>

         In Fiscal 2001, we had an extraordinary gain of $38.6 million as a
result of cancellation of debt related to the reorganization plan.

         The net income for Fiscal 2001 was $28.1 million compared to a net loss
of $53.1 million for Fiscal 2000, an increase of $81.2 million.

Fiscal 2000 versus Fiscal 1999

         Net sales for Fiscal 2000 decreased by $23.4 million, or 13.2%, from
$178.2 million for Fiscal 1999 to $154.7 million for Fiscal 2000. Net retail
sales for Fiscal 2000 decreased $16.0 million, or 10.2%, from $156.9 million for
Fiscal 1999 to $140.9 million for Fiscal 2000. Net catalog sales for Fiscal 2000
decreased $7.6 million, or 35.6%, from $21.3 million for Fiscal 1999 to $13.7
million for Fiscal 2000. The decrease in revenue of retail stores is
attributable to various adversities due to our bankruptcy proceedings. The
decrease in net catalog sales was attributable to a decrease in the number of
catalogs mailed during the year from 9.7 million in Fiscal 1999 to 1.2 million
in Fiscal 2000.

         Gross profit for Fiscal 2000 decreased $10.7 million, or 20%, from
$54.4 million for Fiscal 1999 to $43.7 million for Fiscal 2000. As a percentage
of net sales, gross profit decreased from 31% for Fiscal 1999 to 28% for Fiscal
2000. This is primarily a result of our changing sales mix, and a decrease in
gross profit percentage in both the retail and catalog business.

         Selling, general and administrative expenses for Fiscal 2000 increased
$8.8 million, or 17.8%, from $49.7 million for Fiscal 1999 to $58.5 million for
Fiscal 2000. As a percentage of net sales, selling, general and administrative
expenses increased 9.9% from 27.9% of net sales in Fiscal 1999 to 37.8% of net
sales in Fiscal 2000. The increases in selling, general and administrative
expenses are primarily due to a reduction in cooperative advertising income in
Fiscal 2000.

         Reorganization charges resulted in net charges of $2.3 million or 1.5%
of net sales in Fiscal 2000. These net charges relate directly to our Chapter 11
proceedings and associated restructuring of operations and are discussed in Note
3 to the Consolidated Financial Statements.

         Due to the impact of the results described above, our operating income
decreased from $4.7 million in Fiscal 1999 to a loss of $17.1 million in Fiscal
2000, a decrease of $21.8 million.

         Interest expense, net of interest income, for Fiscal 2000 increased by
$0.4 million from $4.8 million in Fiscal 1999 to $5.2 million in Fiscal 2000.
The change in interest expense was attributable to the increase in the average
amount outstanding under our bank credit facility.

         On August 11, 2000, we disposed of our golf business. The consolidated
financial statements of the Predecessor Company have been presented to reflect
the disposition of the golf business in accordance with APB Opinion No. 30.
Accordingly, revenues, expenses, and cash flows of the golf division have been
excluded from the respective captions in the accompanying consolidated
statements of operations and consolidated statements of cash flows. The net
liabilities of the golf business have been reported as "Net current liabilities
of discontinued operations" in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets; the
net operating losses of the golf division have been reported as "Net loss from
discontinued operations" in the accompanying consolidated statements of
operations; the net loss from the disposal of the golf division has been
presented as "Net loss on disposal"; and the net cash flows of the golf division
have been reported as "Net cash used in discontinued operations" in the
accompanying consolidated statements of cash flows. Net sales for the golf
division were approximately $55,189,000 and $92,448,000 for Fiscal 2000 and
Fiscal 1999.

         The net loss for Fiscal 1999 was $7.6 million compared to a net loss of
$53.1 million for Fiscal 2000.

</TABLE>

         Our primary ongoing cash requirements are for seasonal and new store
inventory purchases and capital expenditures. Our primary sources of funds for
our business activities are cash flow from operations and borrowings under our
revolving credit facility.

         Our working capital deficit decreased by $31.1 million, from a deficit
of $34.1 million as of February 24, 2001 to a deficit of $3.0 million as of
February 23, 2002. The increase in working capital resulted primarily from the
cancellation of debt under the plan, the reduction in inventory as a result of
store closings and improved inventory turns and revaluation of fixed assets
under fresh start accounting.

         Cash flow generated from store operations provides a source of
liquidity. Cash provided by operating activities was $10.4 million for Fiscal
2001 as compared to $32.3 million for Fiscal 2000. The primary provider of the
cash in Fiscal 2001 was a $12.6 million decrease in inventories, and a $7.9
million increase in post petition accounts payable. We also offset a $10.1
million increase in pre-petition accounts payable by a $9.8 million increase in
accounts receivable (we classified approximately $8.9 million in vendor rebates
receivable as accounts payable at February 24, 2001, which we wrote off as part
of our cancellation of debt upon our emergence from bankruptcy). Our cash was
offset by a net loss from continuing operations of $10.3 million.


                                       23
<PAGE>

         The net cash used in investing activities was approximately $0.5
million in Fiscal 2001 compared to $0.6 million in Fiscal 2000. The main use of
cash for investment in Fiscal 2001 was primarily for the purchase of equipment
required for relocation of our headquarters and distribution center.

         Capital expenditures include costs for the relocation of our
headquarters and distribution center, new store openings, store remodels and
other basic capital needs. These expenditures fluctuate from year to year
primarily as a result of the timing of new store capital spending and the number
of stores remodeled. Our capital expenditures were $0.5 million during Fiscal
2001, $0.6 million during Fiscal 2000 and $3.8 million during Fiscal 1999. We
expect total capital expenditures for Fiscal 2002 to be approximately $0.5
million. This estimate includes store remodeling spending as well as base
capital needs.

         The net cash used in financing activities was approximately $27.6
million in Fiscal 2001 and $14.3 million in Fiscal 2000, primarily attributable
to reduced net borrowings under bank credit facilities. During Fiscal 2001 we
made principal payments on our old bank credit facility of $5.0 million and $7.5
million on April 2, 2001 and September 17, 2001. In addition, upon emergence
from bankruptcy we paid off the old bank credit facility and entered into the
new facility resulting in a decrease in principal of $12.3 million.

         We maintain a $30 million senior secured revolving credit line with
Bank of America. The borrowing base under the credit line commitment is based on
the following formula: the lesser of 65% of the cost of eligible store and
warehouse inventory or 85% of the orderly liquidated value of the inventory from
an appraiser acceptable to Bank of America, plus 50% of the value of inventory
covered by merchandise letters of credit plus 85% of the value of eligible
credit card and trade accounts receivable plus $600,000 through October 31, 2002
and $500,000 thereafter against the value of the Successor's Seabrook, NH
facility until the facility is sold. The credit facility is secured by
substantially all of our assets. Amounts borrowed under the credit line bear
interest at an annual rate equal to LIBOR plus 3.25% (5.08% at July 2, 2002) or
the bank reference rate plus 1.00% (5.75% at July 2, 2002) at our option. We may
select the rate every month. The amount available at July 1, 2002, based on the
borrowing base under the credit line was $24.4 million, of which $23.5 million
was drawn. The agreement requires us to maintain a fixed charge coverage (our
income before interest, depreciation, amortization and taxes over fixed charges
defined as interest on our long term debt) ratio of .75:1.00 for the three
fiscal quarters ending August 2002 and .90:1.00 for the four fiscal quarters
ending November 2002 and other non financial covenants. As of August 1, 2002, we
were in compliance with all the covenants. We are also required to have $3.0
million of availability under the facility after we pay the $2.0 million that we
are required to pay to settle pre-petition general unsecured claims. The total
availability at February 23, 2002 was approximately $3,800,000. The agreement
was amended on August 22, 2002 to fix the overadvance portion of the
availability at $1,167,000 through October 31, 2002 at which time the
overadvance availability will decrease monthly by $233,000 until the overadvance
availability is reduced to zero. The credit facility currently has an expiration
date of, and the outstanding balance matures on, October 29, 2003. The credit
facility is classified as a current liability due to the agreement including a
subjective acceleration clause and an agreement to maintain blocked account
arrangements.


                                       24
<PAGE>

         Under the Plan, we are required to pay to general unsecured creditors
their pro rata share of $2,000,000 in addition to 5,280,000 shares of new common
stock. Due to delays in the processing and settlement of certain unsecured
claims and restrictions under our credit facility, we have, after consultation
with the holders of a majority in dollar value of the claims, deferred making
this payment and can make no assurance as to when or if we will make such
payment. Even if we settled the remaining unsecured claims we would not be able
to make any payments to these creditors because of availability restrictions
under our bank facility. We are actively seeking a new credit facility, in part
to increase our borrowing base so that we may make this deferred payment, but
cannot guarantee that we will be able to obtain one and that if we do obtain a
new credit facility that it will be on terms favorable to us.

         Provided the holders of the $2,000,000 of claims continue to permit
deferral of their payment, we anticipate we will be able to satisfy our working
capital requirements, planned capital expenditures, and debt service
requirements with proceeds from cash flows from operations, borrowings under our
$30 million revolving credit facility and other sources of financing. We expect
to generate adequate cash flows from operating activities to sustain current
levels of operations.

New Accounting Pronouncements

         On February 25, 2001, we adopted Statement of Financial Accounting
Standards ("SFAS") No. 133, "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging
Activities," which provides accounting and reporting standards for derivatives,
including those embedded in other instruments or contracts. Adoption of SFAS No.
133 did not have a significant impact on the consolidated financial position or
the results of operations.

         In July 2001, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued
SFAS No. 141, "Business Combinations," which was effective for business
combinations initiated after June 30, 2001. We did not acquire any entity
subsequent to June 2001, however the principles of SFAS No. 141 were applied in
accordance with fresh start accounting.

         In July 2001, the FASB issued SFAS No. 142, "Goodwill and Other
Intangible Assets" ("SFAS 142"). SFAS No. 142 provides for cessation of
amortization of goodwill and other intangible's considered to have indefinite
lives and includes requirements for periodic tests of goodwill and indefinitely
lived intangible assets for impairment. We are required to adopt SFAS No. 142 in
fiscal 2003. We adopted SFAS 142 as part of our fresh start accounting.


                                       25
<PAGE>

         In August 2001, the FASB issued SFAS No. 144, "Accounting for the
Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets." SFAS No. 144 requires that one
accounting model be used for impairments of long-lived assets to be either used
in a business or disposed of by sale, and broadens the presentation of
discontinued operations to encompass more discrete components of a business
enterprise than were included under previous standards. We adopted SFAS No.144
as part of our fresh start accounting.

         In April 2002, the FASB issued SFAS 145, Rescission of FASB Statements
4, 44 and 64, Amendment to FASB Statement 13, and Technical Corrections. One of
the major changes of this statement is to change the accounting for the
classification of gains and losses from the extinguishment of debt. Upon
adoption, we will follow APB 30, Reporting the Results of Operations--Reporting
the Effects of Disposal of a Segment of a Business, and Extraordinary, Unusual
and Infrequently Occurring Events and Transactions in determining whether such
extinguishment of debt may be classified as extraordinary. The provisions of
this statement related to the rescission of FASB Statement 4 shall be applied in
fiscal years beginning after May 15, 2002 with early application encouraged. We
believe that the adoption of SFAS 145 will not have a material impact on our
financial statements.

Impact of Inflation

         We do not believe inflation has had a material impact on our net sales
or results of operations.

strategies, objectives, expectations, intentions and adequacy of resources and
are intended to be made pursuant to the safe harbor provisions of the Private
Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Words such as "believes," "forecasts,"
"intends," "possible," "expects," "estimates," "anticipates," or "plans" and
similar expressions are intended to identify forward-looking statements.
Investors are cautioned that such forward-looking statements involve risks and
uncertainties including, without limitation, the following:

            o     Our ability to attract, train and retain highly-qualified
                  associates to staff both existing and new stores, as well as
                  middle and senior management.

            o     General economic conditions, which affect consumer confidence
                  and home improvement and home-building spending, including
                  interest rates, the overall level of economic activity, the
                  availability of consumer credit and mortgage financing and
                  unemployment rates.

            o     The impact of competition, including competition for
                  customers, locations and products and in other important
                  aspects of our business. Our primary competitors include
                  electrical, plumbing and building materials supply houses,
                  lumber yards, home improvement stores and other local,
                  regional or national hardware stores, as well as discount
                  department stores and any other channel of distribution that
                  offer products that we sell. Our business is highly
                  competitive, and we may face new types of competitors as we
                  enter new markets or lines of business.

            o     Changes in laws and regulations, including changes in
                  accounting standards, tax statutes or regulations and
                  environmental and land use regulations, and uncertainties of
                  litigation.

            o     Our continued compliance with the financial covenants under
                  our bank credit facility.

            o     Continued cooperation by the holders of $2,000,000 of claims
                  as to which we have deferred payment.

            o     Our ability to achieve our plans and strategies of growth will
                  be dependent on maintaining adequate bank and other financing.

            o     Other risks and uncertainties indicated from time to time in
                  our filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission.


                              CERTAIN RISK FACTORS

In addition to the risks related to the factors listed above in the section
titled "Safe Harbor Statement under the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act
of 1995", investing in our common stock involves a high degree of risk. These
risks and uncertainties are not the only ones we face. Unknown additional risks
and uncertainties, or ones that we currently consider immaterial, may also
impair our business operations. If any of these risks or uncertainties actually
occur, our business, financial condition or results of operations could be
materially adversely affected.

Our revised business operations provide limited information upon which to base
an investment decision. Our principal operations have consisted of only
Woodworkers Warehouse stores and catalogs since the corporate reorganization in
October 2001. Therefore, we have limited historical financial information about
us upon which to base an evaluation of our performance. Given our limited
operating history and our unproven potential to generate revenue and profits,
there is no assurance we will be able to compete successfully in the retail and
catalog power tool and accessory sale business.

We must establish, maintain and strengthen the Woodworkers Warehouse brand to
attract users and generate revenue from existing and new businesses. To
successfully implement our business plan, we must establish, maintain and
continually strengthen the Woodworkers Warehouse brand. For us to be successful
in establishing Woodworkers Warehouse, users of power and hand tools must
perceive it as a desirable, efficient and cost effective shopping source, which
provides a wide range of quality products. If our marketing efforts are not
productive or if we cannot strengthen our brand, our efforts to establish and
maintain our brand will be unsuccessful, and we may lose customers and be unable
to attract new business.


                                       27
<PAGE>


Our competitors may be able to raise money and exploit opportunities more
rapidly and extensively than we can. We have limited financial and other
resources and limited access to capital. We compete or may compete against
entities that are much larger than we are, have more extensive resources than we
do and have an established reputation. Because of their size, resources,
reputation, history and other factors, certain of our competitors may have
better access to capital and other significant resources than we do and, as a
result, may be able to exploit acquisition and development opportunities more
rapidly, easily or thoroughly than we can.

We face intense competition and will have to compete for market share. There can
be no assurance our products will achieve or maintain a competitive advantage.
There are currently a number of companies who compete in the catalog and retail
store power tool business. We face competitive pressures from numerous actual
and potential competitors, both online and offline, and catalog and retail, many
of which have longer operating histories, greater brand name recognition, larger
customer bases and significantly greater financial, technical and marketing
resources than we do. We cannot assure you that the catalog and retail tool
stores maintained by our existing and potential competitors will not be
perceived by potential customers as being superior to ours.

The terms of our indebtedness impose restrictions on us that limit the
discretion of our management in operating our business and that may limit our
ability to obtain additional financing. Our working capital facility contains
various restrictive covenants that limit our management's discretion in
operating our business. In particular, these covenants limit our ability to,
among other things:

            o     incur additional indebtedness;
            o     issue additional stock;
            o     make restricted payments (including redeeming or repurchasing
                  our capital stock);
            o     make investment or acquisitions;
            o     grant liens on our assets;
            o     engage in transactions with affiliates;
            o     liquidate or dissolve;
            o     sell our assets;
            o     enter into any sale and lease back transactions; and
            o     amend our Plan of Reorganization.

A breach of any of these covenants could result in an event of default under the
facility, in which case the lender could elect to declare all amounts borrowed,
together with unpaid accrued interest, to be immediately due and payable.

We have deferred payment of $2,000,000 of claims that are due and payable. This
deferral was made after consultation with the holders of a majority of the
dollar value of the claims; however, the deferral was not formally approved and
claim holders could seek payment of their claims at any time. As a result of
restrictions under our credit facility, we do not have funds available to pay
these claims at this time.


                                       28
<PAGE>


We are dependent on cash flows from operations and our credit facility to meet
our working capital needs. Assuming continued cooperation by the holders of
$2,000,000 of deferred claims, we believe projected cash flows from operations
in combination with our credit facility are sufficient to meet our working
capital needs through the end of fiscal 2002 and debt payments. Achievement of
projected cash flows from operations, however, will be dependent upon our
attainment of sales, gross profit, expense and trade support levels that are
consistent with our financial plans. Such operating performance will be subject
to financial, economic and other factors affecting the industry and our
operations, including factors beyond our control, and there can be no assurance
our plans will be achieved. Failure to achieve our plans could have a material
adverse effect on our financial condition.

We are dependent on cash flows from operations to pay our debt which payments
may increase if interest rates rise. We borrow funds on a variable rate basis
and continued compliance with loan covenants under our credit facility is
partially dependent on relative interest rate stability. If projected cash flows
from operations are not realized, or if there are significant increases in
interest rates, then we may have to explore alternate financing sources,
including obtaining further modification to our existing lending arrangements or
attempting to locate additional sources of financing. We can make no assurance
that we will be able to obtain such new or additional financing, or that if we
do obtain such financing it will be on terms that are favorable to us.

We have never paid cash dividends on our common stock, and we are currently
restricted from declaring and paying cash dividends. We have never declared or
paid any cash dividends on our common stock, and we do not expect to declare any
such dividends in the foreseeable future. Payment of any future cash dividends
will depend upon our earnings and capital requirements, our debt facilities and
other factors that our board of directors may deem appropriate. We intend to
retain earnings, if any, to finance the development and expansion of our
business, and therefore we do not anticipate paying dividends in the foreseeable
future. In addition, the terms of our outstanding indebtedness restrict the
payment of cash dividends on our common stock.

Our failure to manage the reorganization of our operations and infrastructure
could disrupt our operations and adversely affect our revenues. We have
reorganized, shed non-core businesses, and focused our business on our
Woodworkers Warehouse brand. The reorganization has placed, and any growth as a
result is likely to further place, a significant strain on our resources. Our
ability to achieve and maintain profitability will depend on our ability to
manage this reorganization effectively, to implement, improve and expand
operational and customer support systems, and to hire additional personnel. We
may not be able to augment or improve existing systems and controls or implement
new systems and controls to respond to any future change. In addition, future
change may result in increased responsibilities for management personnel, which
may limit their ability to effectively manage our business.

We are dependent on the continued contributions of our key personnel. We are
currently dependent on our senior management and board of directors. The loss of
their services, or the services of any other individual upon whom we currently
rely, may significantly adversely affect our performance and our ability to
carry out the successful development and implementation of our business plan. We
maintain employment contracts with certain members of management. Failure to
retain management, directors and advisors or to attract and retain other key
employees could have an adverse effect on our growth and our ability to achieve
and maintain profitability.


                                       29
<PAGE>


We may not be able to hire and retain a sufficient number of qualified employees
and, as a result, we may not be able to grow as we expect or maintain the
quality of our services. Our success will depend on our ability to hire, train,
and retain highly skilled technical, marketing and sales, and customer support
personnel. Competition for these people is intense, especially for trained
service personnel, and we may be unable to successfully attract sufficiently
qualified personnel. There can be no assurance we will be able to hire, train
and retain a sufficient number of qualified employees. If we were unable to
recruit and retain a sufficient number of employees, we would be forced to limit
our growth or possibly curtail our operations.

The restrictions, additional costs and burdens imposed by penny stock
regulations may decrease the liquidity of our common stock. The Securities
Enforcement and Penny Stock Reform Act of 1990 requires additional disclosure
relating to penny stocks. Generally a penny stock is any equity security that
has a market price of less than $5.00 per share. In addition, broker/dealers who
recommend our common stock to persons other than established customers and
accredited investors must make a determination of the suitability of the
purchaser and receive the purchaser's written agreement to the investment before
a sale.

Our common stock will be quoted on the "pink sheets" or the OTC Bulletin Board
and does not currently qualify for listing on The Nasdaq Stock Market and we do
not foresee that we will qualify for such a listing in the foreseeable future.
If our common stock is quoted on the OTC Bulletin Board, or is traded in what
are commonly referred to as the "pink sheets", there would likely not be an
active trading market for our common stock, and our investors would find it more
difficult to see, or to quickly and accurately obtain, pricing information for
our common stock. The Nasdaq Stock Market establishes listing qualifications for
companies wishing to have their securities quoted on the Nasdaq SmallCap Market.
In addition to minimum bid price and public float requirements, among the other
listing requirements for a security to be quoted on the Nasdaq SmallCap Market,
the issuer must have minimum stockholders' equity of at least $5,000,000. We
currently do not meet these requirements.


ITEM 7A. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

         We are exposed to interest rate risk primarily through our borrowing
activities. Our short-term borrowings bear interest at variable rates primarily
based on either the prime rate or LIBOR. The effect of a 10% change in the prime
or LIBOR would not have a material impact on our financial results. In seeking
to minimize the risks from interest rate fluctuations, we manage exposures
through our regular operating and financing activities. We do not use financial
instruments for trading or other speculative purposes and are not party to any
leveraged financial instruments.

ITEM 8. FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AND SUPPLEMENTARY DATA

         The consolidated Financial Statements and Supplementary Data of the
Company are listed under Part IV, Item 14, in this Report.

ITEM 9. CHANGES IN AND DISAGREEMENTS WITH ACCOUNTANTS ON ACCOUNTING AND
        FINANCIAL DISCLOSURE

         On April 5, 2002, the Company dismissed Arthur Andersen LLP as its
independent public accountants. On April 12, 2002, the Company retained Deloitte
& Touche LLP as the Company's independent public accountants.

         Arthur Andersen's reports on the Company's consolidated financial
statements for the Company's Fiscal 2001 and Fiscal 2000 did not contain an
adverse opinion or disclaimer of opinion, nor were they qualified or modified as
to uncertainty, audit scope or accounting principles.

         During Fiscal 2001 and Fiscal 2000 and through April 5, 2002, there
were no disagreements with Arthur Andersen on any matter of accounting principle
or practice, financial statement disclosure, or auditing scope or procedure
which, if not resolved to Arthur Andersen's satisfaction, would have caused them
to make reference to the subject matter in connection with their report on the
Company's consolidated financial statements for such years; and there were no
reportable events as defined in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K.

Committees of the Board of Directors

      Since the Company's reorganization on October 29, 2001, the Company has
formed two committees, an Audit Committee comprised of Messrs. Mandell, Nacht,
and Solomon and a Compensation Committee comprised of Messrs. Berg, Kaplan, and
Nusim.

Compensation of Directors

         Currently, each director who is not employed by the Company receives an
annual retainer of $20,000 plus $1,000 for each meeting of the Board or any
committee thereof attended in person, including reimbursement of expenses
incurred in connection with attending such meeting, and $500 for each meeting
held by telephonic board meeting. Joseph Nusim and Edward D. Solomon received an
additional annual fee of $5,000 as compensation for serving as Co-Chairmen of
the Boards.

         Pursuant to the 2001 Woodworkers Warehouse, Inc. Long-Term Incentive
Plan, (the "Incentive Plan"), each director who is not employed by the Company
received upon his appointment to the Board an option to purchase up to 50,000
shares of common stock at the fair market price of the common stock on the date
of grant. Except as set forth in the immediately following sentence, one-third
of such option becomes exercisable on each January 2 following the grant date.
In the event a non-employee director fails to attend at least 75% of the Board
meetings in any calendar year, that director automatically forfeits the right to
exercise that portion of the option that would otherwise have become exercisable
on the next following January 2, and which portion ceases to have any force or
effect. There were no forfeitures under this provision in Fiscal 2001. Also
pursuant to the Incentive Plan, at January 2 of each year, except for January 2,
2002, each non-employee director is entitled to receive an immediately
exercisable option to purchase such number of shares of common stock to be
determined by the compensation committee at an exercise price equal to the fair
market price of the common stock on the date of grant.


                                       33
<PAGE>

         The exercise price of options granted to the non-employee directors in
Fiscal 2001 was $0.26 per share. The Company determined that its fair market
value was $0.26 per share for each share it is required to issue under the Plan.
The per share value is equal to its value as determined by an independent third
party after a valuation performed in conjunction with its emergence from
bankruptcy. Options granted to directors under the Incentive Plan generally
expire and cease to be of any force or effect on the earlier of the tenth
anniversary of the date any such grant or the first anniversary of the date on
which an optionee ceases to be a member of the Board.

Reporting Under Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934

         Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 requires the
Company's executive officers, directors and persons who own more than 10% of the
Company's Common Stock, to file reports of ownership and changes in ownership on
Forms 3, 4 and 5 with the Securities and Exchange Commission and the Nasdaq
Stock Market. Executive officers, directors and greater than 10% stockholders
are required to furnish the Company with copies of all Forms 3, 4 and 5 they
file.

         Based solely on the Company's review of the copies of such Forms it has
received, except for Form 3s for William Kearney and Jerry Juszak, which were
filed late, the Company believes that all of its officers, directors and greater
than 10% stockholders complied with all Section 16(a) filing requirements
applicable to them during the Company's fiscal year ended February 23, 2002.

Employment Contracts

         The Company and Mr. Spokowski are parties to an employment agreement
that expires on October 29, 2004. The employment agreement automatically renews
for successive one year terms following the agreement's expiration unless the
Company or Mr. Spokowski provides the other party with 90 days written notice
prior to the expiration of the current term. Mr. Spokowski currently receives an
annual base salary of $250,000, and he is entitled to receive an annual bonus

Compensation Committee Interlocks and Insider Participation

         Prior to our emergence from bankruptcy on October 29, 2001 we did not
have a Compensation Committee in Fiscal 2001. After October 29, 2001 the
Compensation Committee was comprised of Messrs. Berg, Kaplan, and Nusim. No
member of the Compensation Committee was at any time an officer or employee of
the Company or any of its subsidiaries.

Compensation Committee Report On Executive Compensation

         The Board believes that increasing the value of the Company to its
stockholders is the Board's most important objective and should be the key
measure of management performance. The Board also believes that executive
compensation should be objectively determined. For this reason, the Compensation
Committee, which is made up of directors who are not employees of the Company,
is responsible for determining the compensation packages of the Company's
executives.

         The Company is focused on achieving consistent earnings growth and
increasing returns to its stockholders. While the Company is cautious about near
term results due to challenging business conditions, the following are its
longer-term financial goals: Increase compounded earnings per diluted share and
increase our return on average equity.

         The executive compensation program is designed to accomplish the
Board's objectives. The program is based upon the following principles:
executive performance should be judged and compensated primarily on the basis of
the Company's earnings and the strength of the Company's financial position;
long-term appreciation in stockholder value is the most appropriate measure of
the Company's financial performance; and the most effective approach to
promoting the financial success of the Company is to align the stockholders' and
the executives' interests. This alignment is best accomplished through a
compensation strategy emphasizing long-term stock ownership. As a result, the
program is designed to increase the proportion of long-term compensation tied to
increases in the Company's earnings, financial position and appreciation in
stockholder value. The annual cash compensation for executive officers is
primarily in the form of base salary, which is being maintained at levels
consistent with competitive market compensation practices, and annual cash
incentives based on objectives tied to the Company's financial performance.
Annual cash compensation is supplemented with long-term incentive compensation,
primarily in the form of stock incentives, intended to link executive
compensation to changes in stockholders' value. The Compensation Committee
intends that the application of these principles will result in total executive
compensation and capital accumulation potential above competitive levels for
superior stockholder returns and below competitive levels for average or lesser
returns.


                                       40
<PAGE>

         There are three components to the Company's compensation program for
executive officers: base salary, annual cash incentives and long-term stock
incentives. Each of these components is discussed in detail below.


Base Salary

         Base salaries for the annual period ended on and as of Fiscal 2001 were
established under agreements for certain officers. Factors considered in setting
these salaries include the responsibilities of the position, compensation of
executives in companies of similar size or in the same industry and external
market conditions. All base salary compensation for officers for Fiscal 2001 was
approved by the bankruptcy court.

Annual Cash Incentives

         The stated goal of the Compensation Committee is to structure executive
compensation that focuses the efforts of senior management on achieving the
above stated business goals of the Company. An annual cash incentive is utilized
to compensate management for achieving consistent and increasing earnings growth
over several periods. The annual cash payments for each executive and management
are based upon achieving certain sales objectives and earnings objectives.

         The bonuses paid for Fiscal 2001 were based on the Company's "Key
Employee Retention Program" ("KERP"), which was approved by the Bankruptcy Court
in October 2000. Pursuant to the KERP, executive employees and middle management
employees of the Company were to be paid 50% and 25%, respectively, of their
annual salary in effect at the time that the payment was due, in a lump sum,
less applicable withholding taxes, at the earlier of: (i) one year from the
Petition Date; (ii) confirmation of a Plan of Reorganization; or (iii) dismissal
of the employee, other than for cause.

Long-Term Stock Incentives

         The Compensation Committee believes that long-term changes in
stockholder value are an important measure of the Company's performance. The
Compensation Committee uses stock incentives (primarily stock options) to align
the interests of the Company's stockholders and executives.

Compensation of Chief Executive Officer

         Mr. Spokowski received total compensation amounting to $348,392 in
Fiscal 2001 (which sum includes 240,000 shares of common stock granted to him at
a fair market value of $0.26 per share), of which $110,000 was KERP bonus. The
Compensation Committee considers Mr. Spokowski's compensation to be in line with
industry and market size standards and to be consistent with Company performance
objectives. Mr. Spokowski's compensation for Fiscal 2001 was approved by the
bankruptcy court.

         This report was presented to and approved by the Board.

ITEM 12. SECURITY OWNERSHIP OF CERTAIN BENEFICIAL OWNERS AND MANAGEMENT

         Upon our reorganization and emergence from bankruptcy on October 29,
2001, all of the interest of the holders of the Class A and Class B common
stock, the treasury stock, preferred stock and the outstanding stock options
under the 1993 Employee Stock Option Plan and the 1994 Non-Qualified Stock
Option Plan for Non-Employee Directors were cancelled. The Company has
authorized 7,500,000 shares of Common Stock, par value $0.01 per share, and are
required to issue 5,280,000 shares of Common Stock to general unsecured
creditors as payment for pre-petition liabilities and 360,000 shares of Common
Stock to management. An additional 180,000 shares have been reserved for
issuance to management. As of the date of this Form 10-K, due to unresolved
claims issues, no shares have been issued, and they cannot be issued until the
issues surrounding these unresolved claims are settled. When they are issued
they will be deemed to have been issued as of October 29, 2001.

         The Company's four largest unsecured creditors as of October 29, 2001
were Porter Cable Corporation, Delta International Machinery Corp., Taylor
Made-Addidas, and Makita USA, Inc. These creditors will, on issuance of the
shares, be the four largest shareholders of the Company.

         The 360,000 shares of common stock issued to management were
distributed as follows: 240,000 shares to Walter Spokowski, Chief Executive
Officer of the Company, and 120,000 shares to Ronald Franklin, the former Chief
Financial Officer of the Company.

         Each non-employee director currently beneficially owns 16,667 shares of
common stock which are issuable on the exercise of currently exercisable options
at $0.26 per share.

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT


To the Shareholders of Woodworkers Warehouse, Inc.

We have audited the accompanying balance sheet of Woodworkers Warehouse, Inc.
(the "Company") as of February 23, 2002 (Successor Company balance sheet), and
the related statements of operations, stockholders' equity (deficit), and cash
flows for the four months ended February 23, 2002 (Successor Company operations)
and for the eight months ended October 27, 2001 (Predecessor Company
operations). 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 audits in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted
in the United States of America. 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 audits provide a
reasonable basis for our opinion.

As discussed in Note 1 to the financial statements, on September 7, 2001, the
Bankruptcy Court entered an order confirming the plan of reorganization which
became effective after the close of business on October 29, 2001. Accordingly,
the accompanying financial statements have been prepared in conformity with
American Institute of Certified Public Accountants Statement of Position 90-7,
"Financial Reporting for Entities in Reorganization Under the Bankruptcy Code,"
for the Successor Company as a new entity with assets, liabilities, and a
capital structure having carrying values not comparable with prior periods as
described in Note 3.

In our opinion, the Successor Company financial statements present fairly, in
all material respects, the financial position of Woodworkers Warehouse, Inc. as
of February 23, 2002, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for
the four months ended February 23, 2002, in conformity with accounting
principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Further, in our
opinion, the Predecessor Company financial statements referred to above present
fairly, in all material respects, the results of its operations and its cash
flows for the eight months ended October 27, 2001 in conformity with accounting
principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS

To Trend-Lines, Inc.:

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Trend-Lines,
Inc. (a Massachusetts corporation) and subsidiary as of February 24, 2001 and
February 26, 2000, and the related consolidated statements of operations,
stockholders' equity and cash flows for the years ended February 24, 2001,
February 26, 2000 and February 27, 1999. 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 audits.

We conducted our audits 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 audits provide 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 Trend-Lines, Inc. and
subsidiary as of February 24, 2001 and February 26, 2000, and the results of
their operations and their cash flows for the years ended February 24, 2001,
February 26, 2000 and February 27, 1999 in conformity with accounting principles
generally accepted in the United States.

Our audits were made for the purpose of forming an opinion on the basic
consolidated financial statements taken as a whole. The schedule listed in the
index at item 14(a)(2) is the responsibility of the Company's management and is
presented for purposes of complying with the Securities and Exchange
Commission's rules and is not part of the basic consolidated financial
statements. The schedule has been subjected to the auditing procedures applied
in our audits of the basic consolidated financial statements and, in our
opinion, fairly states, in all material respects, the financial data required to
be set forth therein in relation to the basic consolidated financial statements
taken as a whole.

As described more fully in Note 3 to the financial statements, on August 11,
2000, the Company filed a voluntary petition under Chapter XI of the U.S.
Bankruptcy Code and operated its business as debtor-in-possession under control
of the Bankruptcy Court until October 17, 2001, when it received confirmation
from the Bankruptcy Court after having fulfilled all requirements of the
Reorganization Plan which was approved by the Bankruptcy Court and the Company's
creditors.


                                      F-3

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared on a going-concern
basis on accounting which contemplates continuity of operations and realization
of assets and liquidation of liabilities in the ordinary course of business. The
Company has incurred significant operating losses during the fiscal years ended
February 24, 2001 and February 26, 2000, which raise substantial doubts about
its ability to continue as a going concern. Realization of the carrying amounts
of the Company's assets and the classification of its liabilities is dependent
on the success of future operations. The financial statements do not include any
adjustments that might result from this uncertainty.

WOODWORKERS WAREHOUSE, INC.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
YEARS ENDED FEBRUARY 23, 2002 AND FEBRUARY 24, 2001
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

1.    OPERATIONS AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION

      Woodworkers Warehouse, Inc. (the "Company" or the "Successor") is a
      specialty retailer, primarily of woodworking tools and accessories sold
      through its nationally distributed mail-order catalog and through its 98
      retail stores located in the New England and Mid-Atlantic regions.

      On August 11, 2000, Trend-Lines Inc. (the "Predecessor") filed for
      bankruptcy under Chapter 11 of the United States Bankruptcy Code. The
      Predecessor operated its business as a debtor-in-possession subject to the
      jurisdiction of the United Sates Bankruptcy Court for the District of
      Massachusetts Eastern Division (the "Bankruptcy Court") until October 29,
      2001. The First Amended Joint Reorganization Plan of Trend-Lines, Inc. and
      the Official Committee of Unsecured Creditors (the "Plan") dated as of
      September 7, 2001, as modified by the Joint Motion to Approve Nonmaterial
      Modification to the First Amended Joint Reorganization Plan of
      Trend-Lines, Inc. and the Official Committee of Unsecured Creditors, was
      confirmed by the Bankruptcy Court on October 17, 2001. The effective date
      of the Plan was October 29, 2001 (the "Effective Date"). For financial
      reporting purposes, October 27, 2001 was considered the emergence date as
      it was a period end and activity for the two days was immaterial. On the
      Effective Date, the Predecessor merged into its wholly owned subsidiary,
      Woodworkers Warehouse, Inc., with Woodworkers Warehouse, Inc. being the
      surviving corporation emerging from bankruptcy. Pursuant to the Plan, new
      directors and new officers were appointed to the Successor.

      The following is a brief summary of how the Plan categorized and treated
      certain liabilities:

      Class 1 - Bank of America Bank Credit Facility

      o     The Bank Credit Facility issued to the Predecessor by the Bank of
            America was a secured claim and was impaired under the Plan. As part
            of the Plan, the outstanding balance under the Bank Credit Facility
            was paid in full in connection with the closing of a new senior
            secured revolving credit facility referred to as the "Facility" (see
            note 8).

      Class 2 - Other Secured Claims

      o     These secured claims consist of claims by various vendors which
            leased furniture, fixtures and equipment for retail stores and the
            corporate offices of the Predecessor. These holders received (a)
            some or all of the collateral, securing the leases, (b) cash in an
            amount equal to the proceeds received from the sale of the
            collateral or (c) such other treatment as was agreed upon by the
            Predecessor and the Bankruptcy Committee and the holder. In the
            event the value of the collateral securing a Class 2 claim was less
            than the total amount of the claim, the difference was treated as a
            Class 5 General Unsecured Claim.


                                      F-9

1.    OPERATIONS AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION (CONTINUED)

      Class 3 - Other Priority Claims

      o     These claims are claims, other than administrative, professional fee
            or priority tax claims, entitled to priority pursuant to Section
            507(a) of the Bankruptcy Code and were deemed to be unimpaired by
            the Plan. These claims were entitled to payment in full.

      Class 4 - Convenience Claims

      o     These claims consist of claims that would otherwise be a Class 5
            General Unsecured Claim that are equal to or less than $2,000 or
            reduced to $2,000 pursuant to the election by the holder of the
            Claim. These claims were deemed to be impaired by the Plan. Each
            holder of a Class 4 claim will receive cash in an amount equal to
            25% of such claim.

      Class 5 - General Unsecured Claims

      o     These claims are general unsecured, pre-petition trade claims,
            reclamation claims, lease rejection claims and any deficiency claims
            of Bank of America and the other general unsecured claims. The
            Predecessor estimated the total amount of Class 5 claims to be
            $52,500,000. Each holder of a claim in Class 5 was to receive in
            full satisfaction of such allowed claims, its pro rata share, based
            on the principal amount of each holder's claim, of $2,000,000 on
            January 15, 2002 and 5,280,000 shares of common stock of Woodworkers
            Warehouse, Inc., par value $.01 per share (the "New Common Stock")
            on the Effective Date. See note 10 for details of total new shares
            issued. Due to delays in the processing and settlement of certain
            unsecured claims and restrictions under the Facility, the Company
            has, after consultation with the holders of a majority in dollar
            value of the claims, deferred making this payment and can make no
            assurance as to when or if it will make such payment. Even if the
            Company settled the remaining unsecured claims it would not be able
            to make any payments to these creditors because of availability
            restrictions under the Facility. The Company is actively seeking a
            new credit facility, in part to increase its borrowing base so that
            it may make this deferred payment, but cannot guarantee that it will
            be able to obtain one and that if it does obtain a Facility that it
            will be on terms favorable to it.

      Class 6 - Common Stock Equity Interest and Claims

      o     On the Effective Date, all common stock equity interests of the
            Predecessor were extinguished and the certificates and all other
            documents representing such old common stock equity interests were
            deemed cancelled and of no force or effect. The holders of the old
            common stock equity interest did not receive or retain any interest
            or property under the Plan.

      Upon the emergence from bankruptcy, the Company adopted fresh start
      accounting. The financial statements of the Company have been prepared in
      accordance with the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants
      Statement of Position ("SOP") 90-7: "Financial Reporting by Entities in
      Reorganization Under the Bankruptcy Code" ("SOP 90-7"). The purchase
      method of accounting was used to record the fair value of assets and
      assumed liabilities of the reorganized company at October 27, 2001.
      Accordingly, the accompanying balance sheet as of February 23, 2002 is not
      comparable in certain material respects to such balance sheet as of any
      prior period since the balance sheet as of February 23, 2002 is that of a
      reorganized entity.

      The Company's ability to meet its financial obligations will depend on the
      Company's future operating performance, which will be subject to
      financial, economic and other factors affecting the business and
      operations of the Company, including factors beyond its control.
      Management believes, provided the holders of the $2,000,000 claim continue
      to permit the deferral of payment, the availability under its Facility,
      together with available cash and expected cash flows from 2002 operations
      and beyond, and other sources of financing will enable the Company to
      continue as a going concern.

2.    SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

      Principles of Consolidation - The accompanying Predecessor consolidated
      financial statements include the accounts of the Predecessor and Post
      Tool, Inc. ("Post Tool"), its wholly-owned subsidiary. All significant
      intercompany balances and transactions were eliminated in consolidation.
      During the eight months ended October 27, 2001, Post Tool was disposed of,
      therefore upon emergence from bankruptcy the Company did not include any
      subsidiaries. The results of Post Tool were included in continuing
      operations as this subsidiary was not deemed a separate segment under
      Accounting Principles Board, (APB) 30 "Reporting the Results of
      Operations--Reporting the Effects of Disposal of a Segment of a Business,
      and Extraordinary, Unusual and Infrequently Occurring Events and
      Transactions." The sales of Post Tool for the year ended February 23,
      2002, February 24, 2001 and February 26, 2000 were $1,085,612, $24,520,144
      and $28,800,636, respectively, and the net loss was $2,235,688, $3,591,378
      and $182,252, respectively.

      Fiscal Year - The Company's fiscal year end is the Saturday closest to the
      last day of February. Fiscal year 2001 ended on February 23, 2002, fiscal
      year 2000 ended on February 24, 2001, and fiscal year 1999 ended on
      February 26, 2000. For financial reporting purposes, fiscal year 2001 has
      been segregated into two periods; the Successor Company four months ended
      February 23, 2002 and the Predecessor Company eight months ended October
      27, 2001. For interim reporting purposes, the Company closes its books on
      the Saturday of the thirteenth week of the fiscal quarter.

      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
      the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of
      contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements
      and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting
      period. Significant estimates include inventories, sales return, allowance
      for doubtful accounts, and lives of long-lived assets. Actual results
      could differ from those estimates.

      Cash and Cash Equivalents - The Company considers all highly liquid
      investments with original maturities of three months or less to be cash
      equivalents.

      Revenue Recognition - Revenue from retail operations is recognized at the
      time of sale. Revenue from catalog sales is recognized upon shipment to
      the customer. Allowance for sales returns, a component of net sales, is
      booked in the period in which the related sales are recorded. Membership
      income is deferred over the period of the related membership.

      Shipping and Handling - Shipping and handling revenue is included with net
      sales. The cost associated with shipping and handling revenue of
      approximately $284,900, $261,700, $1,261,800 and $1,187,300 for the four
      months ended February 23, 2002, the eight months ended October 27, 2001,
      fiscal year 2000 and fiscal year 1999, respectively, is reported in
      selling, general and administrative expenses.

2.    SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)

      Inventories - The Company values inventories, which consist of merchandise
      held for resale, at the lower of cost (weighted average) or market. Vendor
      rebates directly related to inventory purchases are recorded when earned
      and such allowances reduce the inventoriable product costs based on
      inventory turns. The capitalization of vendor rebates and the
      capitalization of distribution costs under a full absorption policy were
      adopted upon the emergence from bankruptcy under fresh start accounting.
      Also under fresh start accounting, the Company adopted a policy whereby
      capitalized store supplies are expensed when distributed to the stores.

      Prepaid Catalog Expenses - The Company capitalizes direct costs relating
      to the production and distribution of its mail-order catalogs. These costs
      are charged to operations over the period during which revenues are
      derived from the mailings which is predominately one year or less from the
      date of mailing.

      Advertising Expense - Advertising and promotional costs, which include
      flyers, newspapers, television, radio and other media advertising, are
      expensed as incurred and were $1,499,453, $2,881,782, $6,532,751 and
      $7,015,485 for the four months ended February 23, 2002, eight months ended
      October 27, 2001, fiscal year 2000 and fiscal year 1999, respectively.

      Other Assets - Other assets consist mainly of security deposits and bank
      fees related to the new Facility which is being amortized over the life of
      the agreement. Accumulated amortization of deferred financing costs was
      $59,152 for the Successor Company. The deferred financing credit
      pertaining to the bank credit facility pertaining to the Predecessor
      Company was written off within the fresh-start accounting.

      Store Preopening Costs - The Company expenses, as incurred, all preopening
      costs related to each new retail store location, in accordance with SOP
      98-5, "Reporting on Cost of Start-up Activities."

      Accounts Receivable - Customer accounts receivables are classified as
      current assets and include some which are due after one year, consistent
      with industry practice. Accounts receivable are shown net of an allowance
      for uncollectible accounts. The Company provides an allowance for
      uncollectible accounts based on impaired accounts, historical charge-off
      patterns and management judgment. (Note 5).

      Property and Equipment - Property and equipment are stated at cost. When
      property is disposed of or sold, the asset and related accumulated
      depreciation are removed from the accounts and any gain or loss is
      reflected in earnings. Depreciation and amortization are provided on the
      straight-line method over the following estimated useful asset lives:

          Asset Classification                Estimated Useful Lives

          Equipment                           5 - 10 years
          Equipment under capital leases      Life of lease or life of asset,
                                              whichever is shorter
          Furniture and fixtures              10 years
          Building                            39.5 years
          Leasehold improvements              Initial lease term or life of
                                              asset, whichever is shorter

<PAGE>


2.    SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)

      Leases - Properties leased by the Company determined to be capital leases
      are stated at an amount equal to the present value of the minimum lease
      payments during the lease term, less accumulated amortization. The
      properties under capital leases and leasehold improvements under operating
      leases are amortized on the straight-line method over the shorter of their
      useful lives or the related lease terms. The provision for amortization of
      leased properties is included in depreciation and amortization expense.

      Lease Interest - Lease interest represents the fair values assigned to
      the Company's lease rights under fresh start accounting and is being
      amortized as a charge to rent expense over the remaining lease terms.
      Accumulated amortization was $166,239 at February 23, 2002.

      The recoverability of the carrying value of lease interest is dependent
      upon the Company's ability to generate sufficient future cash flows from
      operations at each leased site, or in the case of a sale or disposition of
      a lease or leases, the continuation of similar favorable market rents.
      Accordingly, recoverability of this asset could be significantly affected
      by future economic market and competitive factors and is subject to the
      inherent uncertainty associated with estimates.

      Customer Prepayments - Advance payments received from customers are
      included in accrued expenses in the accompanying consolidated balance
      sheets and are recognized as revenue upon shipment.

      Concentration of Credit Risk - Financial instruments that subject the
      Company to credit risk consist primarily of cash and cash equivalents and
      trade accounts receivable. The Company places its cash and cash
      equivalents in highly rated financial institutions. The Company's accounts
      receivable credit risk is not limited to any particular customer. The
      Company maintains an allowance for potential credit losses. There are no
      customers which represent over 10% of revenue or which account for over
      10% of accounts receivable.

      Fair Value of Financial Instruments - The Company's financial instruments
      consist mainly of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts
      payable and its bank credit facility. The carrying amounts of the
      Company's financial instruments approximate fair value. The bank credit
      facility bears interest at variable market rates; therefore, the carrying
      amount approximates fair value.

      Credit Card Policy - The Company extends credit to customers through
      third-party credit cards, including its private-label credit card. Credit
      under these accounts is extended by third parties, and accordingly, the
      Company bears minimal financial risk from credit card fraud under these
      agreements. The Company's agreements with third-party credit companies
      provide for the electronic processing of credit approvals and electronic
      submission of transactions. Upon the submission of these transactions to
      the credit card companies, payment is transmitted directly to the
      Company's bank account usually within two to four days of the sales
      transaction. Amounts relating to fiscal year sales not received by the
      Company before year-end are included in accounts receivable in the
      accompanying consolidated balance sheets. Fees incurred on credit card
      sales are included in selling, general and administrative expenses.

2.    SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)

      Income Taxes - Income taxes are provided using the asset and liability
      method of accounting. A deferred tax asset or liability is recorded for
      all temporary differences between financial and tax reporting. Deferred
      tax expense (benefit) results from the net change during the year of
      deferred tax assets and liabilities.

      (Loss) Earnings Per Share - Basic loss/earnings per share is computed by
      dividing the net income (loss) available to common shareholders by the
      weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding (Note 10).
      For the purposes of calculating diluted earnings per share, the
      denominator includes both the weighted average number of common stock
      outstanding and the dilutive effect of common stock equivalents, such as
      stock options and warrants. Diluted net loss per share equals basic net
      loss per share as the inclusion of the common stock equivalents would have
      an anti-dilutive impact as a result of the net loss incurred in each of
      those years. Net loss/earnings per share for the eight months ended
      October 27, 2001 and years ended February 24, 2001 and February 26, 2000
      were not presented because such presentation would not be meaningful, as
      the Class A and Class B stock was cancelled under the plan of
      reorganization and the new stock was not issued until consummation.

      Impairment of Long-Lived Assets - The Company reviews the carrying value
      of its long-lived assets whenever events or changes in circumstances
      indicate that the historical cost-carrying value of an asset may no longer
      be appropriate. The Company assesses recoverability of the carrying value
      of the asset by estimating the future net cash flows expected to result
      from the asset, including eventual disposition. If the future net cash
      flows are less than the carrying value of the asset, an impairment loss is
      recorded equal to the difference between the asset's carrying value and
      fair value.

      During fiscal year 2000, the balance of goodwill was determined to be
      impaired and was written off. Goodwill represented the excess of the
      purchase price over the fair market value of identified net assets
      acquired. Goodwill was being amortized using the straight-line method over
      a period of 20 years, the estimated useful life. Accordingly, the Company
      recognized $1,426,952 (including the impairments) and $351,588 of goodwill
      amortization during fiscal years 2000 and 1999, respectively.

      Comprehensive (Loss) Income - Comprehensive (loss) income equals net
      (loss) income for all periods presented.

      New Accounting Pronouncements - On February 25, 2001, the Company adopted
      Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 133, "Accounting
      for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities," which provides
      accounting and reporting standards for derivatives, including those
      embedded in other instruments or contracts. Adoption of SFAS No. 133 did
      not have a significant impact on the consolidated financial position or
      the results of operations.

      In July 2001, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued
      SFAS No. 141, "Business Combinations," which was effective for business
      combinations initiated after June 30, 2001. The Company did not acquire
      any entity subsequent to June 2001, however the principles of SFAS No. 141
      were applied in accordance with fresh start accounting.

2.    SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)

      In July 2001, the FASB issued SFAS No. 142, "Goodwill and Other Intangible
      Assets" ("SFAS 142"). SFAS No. 142 provides for cessation of amortization
      of goodwill and other intangible's considered to have indefinite lives and
      includes requirements for periodic tests of goodwill and indefinitely
      lived intangible assets for impairment. The Company is required to adopt
      SFAS No. 142 in fiscal 2003. The Company adopted SFAS 142 as part of its
      fresh-start accounting.

      In August 2001, the FASB issued SFAS No. 144, "Accounting for the
      Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets." SFAS No. 144 requires that
      one accounting model be used for impairments of long-lived assets to be
      either used in a business or disposed of by sale, and broadens the
      presentation of discontinued operations to encompass more discrete
      components of a business enterprise than were included under previous
      standards. The Company adopted SFAS No.144 as part of its fresh start
      accounting.

      In April 2002, the FASB issued SFAS 145, Rescission of FASB Statements 4,
      44 and 64, Amendment to FASB Statement 13, and Technical Corrections. One
      of the major changes of this statement is to change the accounting for the
      classification of gains and losses from the extinguishment of debt. Upon
      adoption, the Company will follow APB 30, Reporting the Results of
      Operations--Reporting the Effects of Disposal of a Segment of a Business,
      and Extraordinary, Unusual and Infrequently Occurring Events and
      Transactions in determining whether such extinguishment of debt may be
      classified as extraordinary. The provisions of this statement related to
      the rescission of FASB Statement 4 shall be applied in fiscal years
      beginning after May 15, 2002 with early application encouraged. The
      Company believes that the adoption of SFAS 145 will not have a material
      impact on its financial statements.

      Cash Flow Information - Supplemental cash flow information is as follows
      for the years ended February 26, 2000, February 24, 2001, and the eight
      months ended October 27, 2001 and the four months ended February 23, 2002:

3.    REORGANIZATION PLAN AND FRESH START REPORTING

     As discussed above, the Plan was confirmed on October 17, 2001 and the
     Company emerged from Chapter 11 as Woodworkers Warehouse, Inc. on October
     29, 2001. Pursuant to SOP 90-7, the Successor adopted fresh-start reporting
     in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet as of October 27,
     2001 to give effect to the reorganization as of such date.

     Fresh-start reporting required the Successor to restate its assets and
     liabilities to reflect their reorganization value, which approximates fair
     value at the date of the reorganization. In so restating, SOP 90-7 required
     the Successor to allocate its reorganization value to its assets based upon
     their estimated fair values. Each liability existing on the date the Plan
     was confirmed by the Bankruptcy Court, other than deferred taxes, is stated
     at the present value of the amounts to be paid.

     The Company's reorganization value of $1,488,000 was less than the fair
     value of net assets. In accordance with the purchase method of accounting,
     the excess of the revalued net assets over the reorganization value
     (negative goodwill) of approximately $400,000 was allocated to reduce
     proportionately the value assigned to noncurrent assets. The calculated
     reorganization value was based on a variety of estimates and assumptions
     about future circumstances and events. Such estimates and assumptions are
     inherently subject to significant economic and competitive uncertainties
     beyond the control of management. Net deferred tax assets are not recorded
     in the accompanying financial statements due to the uncertainty regarding
     future operating results. Finally, any accounting principle changes
     required to be adopted in the financial statements within the twelve months
     following the adoption of fresh-start reporting were adopted at the time
     fresh-start reporting was adopted.

8.    DEBT

      Bank Credit Facility - Pursuant to the Plan discussed in Note 3, on
      October 29, 2001, the Company entered into a $30,000,000 Senior Secured
      Revolving Credit Facility with Bank of America (the "Facility"). At
      February 23, 2002 the Company had approximately $20,878,000 of borrowings
      outstanding and approximately $15,200 of letters of credit outstanding.
      The Facility is secured by all of the Company's assets and bears interest
      equal to LIBOR plus 3.25% (4.99% at February 23, 2002) or the bank
      reference rate plus 1.00% (5.75% at February 23, 2002) at the Company's
      option. Under the Facility, the Company's borrowing base through March 31,
      2002 is 65% of the cost value of eligible store and warehouse inventory,
      plus 50% of the value of inventory covered by merchandise letters of
      credit, plus 85% of the value of eligible credit card and trade accounts
      receivable plus $500,000 against the value of the Company's Seabrook, NH
      facility plus an over advance availability equal to $3.0 million for 60
      days from the Effective Date, $2.5 million for the next thirty days and
      $2.0 million thereafter with amortization of $166,667 per month beginning
      February 28, 2002.

      After March 31, 2002 the Company's borrowing base is equal to the lesser
      of 65% of the cost of eligible store and warehouse inventory or 85% of the
      orderly liquidated value of the inventory from an appraiser acceptable to
      Bank of America, plus 50% of the value of inventory covered by merchandise
      letters of credit plus 85% of the value of eligible credit card and trade
      accounts receivable plus $600,000 through October 31, 2002 and $500,000
      thereafter against the value of the Successor's Seabrook, NH facility
      until the facility is sold. The total availability at February 23, 2002
      was approximately $3,800,000. The agreement was subsequenty amended on
      August 22, 2002 to fix the overadvance availability at $1,167,000 through
      October 31, 2002, at which time the overadvance availability will
      decrease monthly by $233,000 until the overadvance availability is
      reduced to zero. An orderly liquidated valuation of inventory was done as
      of March 4, 2002 resulting in same 65% advance rate. The Facility contains
      a financial covenant of a fixed charge coverage and other non financial
      covenants. In addition, the Facility requires that the Company have $3.0
      million of availability after payment of $2.0 million to settle
      pre-petition general unsecured claims (see Note 1). The Company was in
      compliance with all the covenants. The Facility matures on October 29,
      2003. The Facility is classified as a current liability due to the
      agreement including a subjective acceleration clause and an agreement to
      maintain blocked account arrangements.

      At February 23, 2002, the Company had in excess of $2,600,000 of federal
      loss carry-forwards, which are subject to review by the Internal Revenue
      Service. The reorganization which occurred during the bankruptcy
      proceedings resulted in an ownership change (within the meaning of IRC
      Section 382). This change may result in further limitations on the
      company's ability to utilize these loss carryforwards in the event that
      the company elects out of certain exceptions available to it under Section
      382 of the code.

      As a result of the bankruptcy proceedings, the company realized certain
      cancellation of indebtedness income. This income was excluded from the
      Company's gross income for federal income tax purposes; however the
      Company was required to reduce the amount of certain tax attributes
      including current year losses and net operating loss carry-forwards by the
      amount of that cancellation of indebtedness pursuant to Section 108 of the
      code. Future financial statement benefit of the net operating losses will
      be recognized as realized. A valuation allowance is established if it is
      more likely than not that all or a portion of the deferred tax assets will
      not be realized. Accordingly, because of the Company's limited operating
      history, management has provided a valuation allowance for the full amount
      of the deferred tax asset due to the uncertainty of realization.

      At February 24, 2001, the Company had in excess of $40,000,000 of federal
      loss carry-forwards, which are subject to review by the Internal Revenue
      Service. The reorganization of the Company may result in an ownership
      change (within the meaning of IRC Section 382). This will result in
      limitations on the Company's ability to utilize the loss
      carry-forwards. In addition, the Company expects to realize
      cancellation of indebtedness income in connection with the
      reorganization, which will serve to further reduce or limit the use of
      loss carry-forwards. Future financial statement benefit of the net
      operating losses will be recognized as realized.

10.   STOCKHOLDERS' EQUITY

      Pursuant to the Plan, upon emergence from bankruptcy all shares of the
      Class A and Class B common stock, treasury stock and preferred stock were
      cancelled along with the outstanding stock options under the 1993 Employee
      Stock Option Plan (the "Option Plan") and the 1994 Non-Qualified Stock
      Option Plan for Non-Employee Directors (the "Director Plan").

      A total of 7,500,000 shares, par value $0.01 per share, of new common
      stock have been authorized with 5,280,000 shares to be issued as payment
      for pre-petition liabilities and 360,000 shares to management. Under the
      Plan we are required to issue new common stock, however, as of February
      23, 2002 the new common stock shares had not been issued. The delay in the
      issuance of the new shares is that the Bankruptcy Court has not yet issued
      a final decree. There are 1,500,000 shares reserved for stock option
      grants. Based on performance of the Company, under employment agreements
      with certain officers, there is a potential grant of 180,000 shares to
      management. Each holder of new common stock has one vote per share and is
      entitled to dividends when and if declared by the Board of Directors,
      however, dividend payments are restricted under the terms of the Facility.
      The Company does not expect to pay dividends in the foreseeable future.

      Effective November 27, 2001, the Company established a long term incentive
      plan ("Incentive Plan") which provides for the granting of stock, stock
      options, stock appreciation rights and restricted shares to employees,
      officers, directors and consultants of the Company. Stock options are
      granted at 100% of the fair market value of the common stock on the date
      of the grant. Options granted to employees vest over three years with 33%
      vesting on each anniversary of the grant. Options granted to Board members
      who are not employees and continue as a member of the Board vest over
      three years with 33% vesting beginning on January 2, 2002. In the event
      that a non-employee director fails to attend at least 75% of the Board
      meetings in any calendar year, commencing in calendar year 2002, such
      person shall automatically forfeit his right to exercise that portion of
      the options that are exercisable. All vested options shall be exercisable
      for a period of ten years from the date of grant.

10.   STOCKHOLDERS' EQUITY (CONTINUED)

      The Company accounts for its stock-based compensation plans under the
      intrinsic value method prescribed in APB Opinion No. 25, Accounting for
      Stock Issued to Employees. The Company has computed the pro forma
      disclosures required under SFAS No. 123, "Accounting for Stock-Based
      Compensation," for all stock options granted as of February 23, 2002 using
      the Black-Scholes option-pricing model.

      The assumptions used and the weighted average information for the four
      months ended February 23, 2002 are as follows:

</TABLE>

      The Black Scholes option valuation model was developed for use in
      estimating the fair value of traded options which have no vesting
      restrictions and are fully transferable. In addition, option valuation
      models require the input of highly subjective assumptions. In the
      Company's opinion, because the Company's stock-based compensation awards
      have characteristics significantly different from traded options and
      because changes in the subjective assumptions can materially affect the
      fair value estimate, the results obtained from the valuation model do not
      necessarily provide a reliable single measure of the value of its
      stock-based compensation awards.

      The effect of accounting for stock-based compensation under the fair value
      method prescribed in SFAS No. 123 would be as follows (in thousands,
      except per share amounts):


                                                                   Successor

                                                                      2002

      The Company applied the fresh start accounting thereby eliminating the
      Predecessor's equity. Accordingly, the prior periods are not comparable
      with the Successor's four months ended February 23, 2002.

11.   TRANSACTIONS WITH RELATED PARTIES AND STOCKHOLDERS

      The Predecessor had a lease arrangement with Mystic United Realty Trust
      (Mystic), for warehouse space at its Chelsea, Massachusetts, facility (the
      Chelsea facility) under a non-cancelable lease through 2005. The chief
      executive officer/principal stockholder of the Predecessor was a trustee
      and beneficiary of Mystic. Under the lease, the Predecessor was required
      to pay to Mystic, in the form of additional rent, all insurance, real
      estate taxes, maintenance and operating cost related to the leased
      premises, which approximate $0.4 million annually. This lease was
      terminated in December 2000.

      During the fourth quarter of fiscal year 1999, the Predecessor's chief
      executive officer/principal stockholder and his spouse, who was also a
      principal stockholder of the Predecessor, made interest-free, unsecured
      demand loans to the Predecessor in the aggregate amount of $3,000,000. All
      these loans were repaid at February 26, 2000.

      During the second quarter of fiscal 2000, the Predecessor's chief
      executive officer/principal stockholder made interest-free unsecured loans
      to the Predecessor in the aggregate amount of $3.5 million. These loans
      are presented as note payable to the officer in the accompanying
      consolidated balance sheet as of February 24, 2001. Pursuant to the Plan
      the $3.5 million loan was forgiven.

12.   COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

      The Company leases retail space, office space, and warehouse space, under
      operating leases with various expirations dates through July, 2029.
      Renewal options from five to 15 years exist on the majority of retail
      properties. Rent and related expenses charged to operations during the
      four months ended February 23, 2002, the eight months ended October 27,
      2001, fiscal year 2000 and fiscal year 1999 were approximately $3,002,000,
      $6,329,000, $12,100,000 and $19,100,000, respectively.

      In addition, the Company has several lease agreements for computers and
      equipment that qualify for capitalized treatment under SFAS No. 13,
      Accounting for Leases. These agreements require monthly payments including
      interest at rates ranging from 8.0% to 9.0% and expire at various dates
      through April 2006.

      Future minimum lease payments under capital and operating leases in excess
      of one year through all option periods, unless management intends not to
      renew at such point in time, are as follows:

12.   COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES (CONTINUED)

      Litigation - The Company is party to various types of litigation in the
      ordinary course of business. The Company believes it has meritorious
      defenses to all claims, and, in its opinion, all litigation currently
      pending or threatened will not have a material effect on the Company's
      financial position or results of operations.

13.   PROFIT SHARING PLAN

      The Company maintains a profit sharing plan that provides for tax deferred
      employee benefits under Section 401(k) of the Internal Revenue Code. The
      profit sharing plan allows employees to make contributions, a portion of
      which will be matched by the Company, up to the lesser of 3% of an
      employee's salary or the minimum amount allowed by law, as defined. The
      Company may elect to make an additional discretionary contribution in any
      profit sharing plan year. There were no discretionary company
      contributions made during the fiscal years ended February 23, 2002,
      February 24, 2001, and February 26, 2000. The Company's contributions vest
      at a rate of 20% per year, beginning after one year of employment. The
      Company has made matching contributions of approximately $33,000 for the
      four month period ended February 23, 2002, $97,000 for the eight month
      period ended October 27, 2001, $200,000 for the fiscal year ended February
      24, 2001, and $300,000 for the fiscal year ended February 26, 2000. The
      Company pays the administrative costs of the profit sharing plan.

14.   SIGNIFICANT VENDOR

      Purchases from the Company's largest single supplier were 31.5%, 16.1% and
      8.8% of total purchases for the years ended February 23, 2002, February
      24, 2001 and February 26, 2000, respectively.

15.   SELECTED INFORMATION BY BUSINESS SEGMENTS

      The Company reports segment information according to SFAS No. 131,
      "Disclosures about Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information."
      SFAS No. 131 requires disclosures about operating segments in annual
      financial statements and requires selected information about operating
      segments in interim financial statements. Operating segments are defined
      as components of an enterprise about which separate financial information
      is available which is evaluated regularly by the chief operating decision
      maker, or decision makers, in deciding how to allocate resources and in
      assessing performance. The Company's chief operating decision maker is the
      chief executive officer.

      The Company sells its products through its Woodworkers Warehouse retail
      stores and its catalogs. These businesses have been aggregated into their
      respective reportable segments based on the management reporting
      structure. The accounting policies of the business segments are the same
      as those described in the summary of significant accounting policies. This
      information excludes financial data related to the discontinued golf
      business.

         * Identifiable assets for the Predecessor Company are not meaningful.

     The Company operates from a single distribution center for its Woodworkers
     Warehouse operations and utilizes common labor pools, common management at
     the corporate level and a single telemarketing sales force. As a result,
     many of the expenses of the Company are shared between the business
     segments and are reflected as general corporate expenses.
