INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS' REPORT

Brass Eagle Inc.
Bentonville, Arkansas 
We have reviewed the condensed consolidated balance sheet of Brass Eagle Inc. as of June 30, 2001 and the related condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income for the three month and six month periods ended June 30, 2001 and 2000, and the condensed consolidated statements of cash flows for the six month periods ended June 30, 2001 and 2000. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management.
We conducted our review in accordance with standards established by the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants. A review of interim financial information consists principally of applying analytical procedures to financial data and making inquiries of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters. It is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards, the objective of which is the expression of an opinion regarding the financial statements taken as a whole. Accordingly, we do not express such an opinion.
Based on our reviews, we are not aware of any material modifications that should be made to the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements for them to be in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.

BRASS EAGLE INC.Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
(All information for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2001 and 2000 is unaudited)

NOTE 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIESThe significant accounting policies and practices followed by Brass Eagle are as follows:

Description of Business:  Brass Eagle is a leading manufacturer of paintball markers and other paintball products. Brass Eagle sells its products through major domestic and international retailers and paintball specialty stores. The financial statements include the accounts of Brass Eagle and its subsidiaries.Interim Results:  The accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet at June 30, 2001 and the condensed consolidated statements of operations and cash flows for the three month periods ended June 30, 2001 and 2000 are unaudited. In the opinion of management, these statements have been prepared on the same basis as the audited financial statements and include all adjustments, consisting of only normal recurring adjustments, necessary for the fair presentation of the results of the interim periods. The results of operations for the three month and six month periods ended June 30, 2001 are not necessarily indicative of the results expected for the full calendar year. Because all of the disclosures required by generally accepted accounting principles are not included, these interim statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto contained in Brass Eagle's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2000.NOTE 2 - INVENTORIESInventories consist of the following components (in thousands):

NOTE 3 - FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTSBrass Eagle adopted FASB SFAS No. 133, "Accounting for Derivative Investments and Hedging Activities", on January 1, 2001. This statement establishes accounting and reporting standards requiring that every derivative instrument be recorded on the balance sheet as either an asset or liability measured at its fair value. SFAS No. 133 also requires that changes in the derivative's fair value be recognized currently in earnings unless specific hedge accounting criteria are met.
During fiscal 2000, Brass Eagle entered into an interest rate swap arrangement, which is a derivative financial instrument with a bank. The purpose of the interest rate swap arrangement is to reduce exposure to interest rate fluctuations by effectively fixing the interest rate on part of the borrowings under Brass Eagle's term debt. The term of the hedge is through August 29, 2003. As a result of its adoption of SFAS No. 133, Brass Eagle recorded a loss to Comprehensive Income of $382,000, net of income taxes of $254,000, during the six months ended June 30, 2001.NOTE 4 - NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTOn June 29, 2001, the FASB approved its proposed SFAS No. 141, ("FAS 141") "Business Combinations," and SFAS No. 142 ("FAS 142"), "Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets"
Under FAS 141, all business combinations should be accounted for using the purchase method of accounting; use of the pooling-of-interests method is prohibited. The provisions of the statement will apply to all business combinations initiated after June 30, 2001.
FAS 142 will apply to all acquired intangible assets whether acquired singly, as part of a group, or in a business combination. The statement will supersede Accounting Principles Board, ("APB"), Opinion No. 17, "Intangible Assets," and will carry forward provisions in APB Opinion No. 17 related to internally developed intangible assets. Adoption of FAS 142 will result in the cessation of goodwill amortization. All of the provisions of the statement will be applied in future fiscal years, commencing January, 2002, to all goodwill and other intangible assets recognized in Brass Eagle's statement of financial position, regardless of when those assets were initially recognized.
As of June 30, 2001, Brass Eagle has goodwill and other intangible assets (net of amortization) of $33.3 million. Brass Eagle's amortization expense for the six month period ending June 30, 2001 was $1.0 million. Brass Eagle is currently evaluating the effects of those new pronouncements.NOTE 5 - ACQUISITIONOn March 5, 2001, Brass Eagle acquired selected machinery and equipment from Nittan USA, Inc., a manufacturer of CO2 jets, for $2.3 million in cash. Brass Eagle has agreed to lease facilities in Batesville, Mississippi to house the equipment and produce CO2 jets, which are sold to Brass Eagle customers.NOTE 6- CREDIT FACILITY & LONG-TERM DEBT BORROWINGSThe original Senior Credit Facility, dated June 30, 2000 and modified on February 1, 2001, is comprised of a $5.5 million revolving credit facility, a $2.0 million term loan and a $25.2 million term loan used for the acquisition of substantially all the assets of JT USA, L.P. The funds available under the revolving credit facility are limited to eligible accounts receivable and inventory, as defined, up to a maximum of $5.5 million. The credit facility is secured by all tangible and intangible assets of Brass Eagle, exclusive of its investment in Challenge Park LLC.
The $2.0 million loan requires quarterly principal payments of $0.2 million and matures in September 2003. The $25.2 million term loan requires quarterly principal payments of $1.4 million and matures in June 2005. Borrowings bear interest, as designated by Brass Eagle, at either the bank's prime rate (adjusted up to prime plus 1.50% depending on Brass Eagle's leverage ratio) or LIBOR (plus 1.25% to 2.50% depending on Brass Eagle's leverage ratio).
The agreement includes certain restrictive covenants including maintaining a minimum net worth of $40.0 million plus 75% of cumulative net income from the time of borrowing, a leverage ratio of 2.00, a fixed charge coverage ratio of 2.25 from June 30, 2001 to September 30, 2001 and 2.50 at December 31, 2001 and beyond. The agreement also limits capital expenditures to $4.5 million in 2001, excluding the purchase of the Nittan assets. Brass Eagle was in compliance with these covenants at June 30, 2001. In addition, the agreement provides for an excess cash flow recapture requirement for the first two years of the agreement equal to 50% of the excess cash flow over fixed charges, not to exceed $750,000.ITEM 2. -  MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONSThe following discussion should be read in conjunction with the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements for the three months and six months ended June 30, 2001 and the 2000 10-K.Special Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements      Certain statements in this filing and in other filings by Brass Eagle with the Securities and Exchange Commission and in press releases, presentations by Brass Eagle or its management and oral statements may constitute forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995.

|                   | Three Months Ended | Six Months Ended
|------------------ | ------------------ | ----------------
|                   | June 30,           | June 30,        
|                   | 2001               | 2000            
|Net sales          | 100.0%             | 100.0%          
|Cost of sales      | 62.6%              | 64.3%           
|Gross profit       | 37.4%              | 35.7%           
|Operating expenses | 26.2%              | 21.8%           
|Operating income   | 11.1%              | 13.9%           
|Net income         | 5.5%               | 9.2%            

THREE MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2001 COMPARED TO THREE MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2000Net Sales.Netsales increased by 26.8% to $21.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2001, compared to $16.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2000. The increase in net sales was primarily due to increased sales of masks and sales of new product lines.
Domestic sales of Brass Eagle products increased by 25.5% to $19.2 million (or 90.1% of sales) for the three months ended June 30, 2001 from $15.3 million (or 91.1% of sales) for the three months ended June 30, 2000. International sales increased by 40.0% to $2.1 million (9.9% of sales) for the three months ended June 30, 2001 from $1.5 million (or 8.9% of sales) for the three months ended June 30, 2000. The increase in international sales was primarily due to increased sales of masks.Gross Profit.Gross profit as a percentage of net sales increased to 37.4% for the three months ended June 30, 2001, compared to 35.7% for the three months ended June 30, 2000. The increase was due primarily to cost savings resulting from Brass Eagle sourcing masks.Operating Expenses.Operating expenses increased 51.4% to $5.6 million in the three months ended June 30, 2001, compared to $3.7 million in the three months ended June 30, 2000, primarily due to increased selling expenses. The increase in selling expenses was due to increased labor and related costs associated with new growth and an increase in variable expenses of freight and commissions due to increased sales. Administrative costs also increased due to additional staff as a result of growth. Amortization expense increased due to the JT USA acquisition.Operating Income.Operating income increased by 4.3% to $2.4 million in the three months ended June 30, 2001, compared to $2.3 million in the three months ended June 30, 2000. This increase was due to increased unit sales and improved gross profit margins, offset by increased operating expenses. Interest.Brass Eagle recorded net interest expense of $457,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2001, compared to net interest income of $125,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2000. The increase in net interest expense was due to the acquisition of JT USA on June 30, 2000 and the acquisition of the Nittan assets on March 5, 2001.Income Tax Rate.Brass Eagle'seffective federal and state income tax rate was 39.9% for the three months ended June 30, 2001 and 37.3% for the three months ended June 30, 2000. The increase in the income tax rate is due to higher effective state taxes primarily due to a reduction in tax credits for the State of Missouri, and a higher effective tax rate from the JT USA operations located in California.SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2001 COMPARED TO SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2000Net Sales.Netsales increased by 32.4% to $42.1 million for the first six months of 2001 compared to $31.8 million the first six months of 2000. The increase in sales was primarily due to increased sales of masks and sales of new products.
Domestic sales increased by 31.8% to $39.0 million (or 92.6% of sales) for the six months ended June 30, 2001 from $29.6 million (or 93.1% of sales) for the six months ended June 30, 2000. International sales increased by 40.9% to $3.1 million (or 7.4% of sales) for the six months ended June 30, 2001 from $2.2 million (or 6.9% of sales) for the six months ended June 30, 2000. The increase in international sales was primarily due to mask sales. Gross Profit.Gross profit as a percentage of net sales increased to 39.2% for the first six months of 2001 compared to 34.0% for the first six months of 2000. The increase was due primarily to cost savings resulting from Brass Eagle sourcing masks. A secondary reason for the margin improvement was cost savings resulting from Brass Eagle sourcing some products outside the United States. Operating Expenses.Operating expenses increased by 57.5% to $11.5 million the first six months of 2001 compared to $7.3 million in the first six months of 2000, primarily due to increased selling expenses. The increase in selling expenses was due to increased salaries and related costs associated with new growth and an increase in variable expenses of freight and commissions due to increased sales. Administrative costs also increased due to additional staff as a result of new growth. Amortization expense increased due to the JT USA acquisition.Operating Income.Operating income increased by 42.9% to $5.0 million in the first six months of 2001 compared to $3.5 million in the first six months of 2000. The increase was primarily due to increased unit sales volume and improved gross profit margins. Interest.Brass Eagle recorded net interest expense of $997,000 in the first six months of 2001 compared to interest income of $272,000 in the first six months of 2000. The increase in net interest expense was due to the acquisition of JT USA on June 30, 2000 and the acquisition of the Nittan assets on March 5, 2001.Income Tax Rate.Brass Eagle's effective federal and state income tax rate was 40.0% in the first six months ended June 30, 2001 and 37.4% for the first six months ended June 30, 2000. The increase in the income tax rate is due to higher effective state taxes primarily due to a reduction in credits from the State of Missouri, and a higher effective tax rate from the JT operations located in California.Liquidity and Capital ResourcesAs of June 30, 2001, Brass Eagle had working capital of $21.9 million. Brass Eagle is planning capital expenditures of approximately $1.8 million for the remainder of 2001 for the expansion and improvement of manufacturing capacity. The investments will be funded from available cash and borrowings from the credit facility.
Brass Eagle believes that funds generated from operations, together with borrowings under the credit facility, will be adequate to meet its anticipated cash requirements for at least the next 18 months. Brass Eagle may, when and if the opportunity arises, acquire or participate in other businesses or ventures involved in activities or having product lines that are compatible with those of Brass Eagle or pursue the vertical integration of production capabilities for one or more of Brass Eagle's products which are currently purchased from third parties. The capital expenditures that would be associated with any such activities that may occur in the future would be funded with available cash and cash equivalents, borrowings from the credit facility, working capital, or a combination of such sources.
Net cash provided by operating activities for the six months ended June 30, 2001 was $5.2 million, consisting primarily of net income of $2.5 million, depreciation and amortization expense of $2.2 million, plus a net decrease in accounts receivable of $7.3 million, a decrease in accounts payable and accrued expenses of $5.8 million, a decrease in deferred taxes of $460,000, an increase in prepaid expenses of $271,000 and an increase in inventory of $1.1 million. 
Net cash used in investing activities was $3.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2001. This was due to the acquisition of selected assets of Nittan USA, Inc. for $2.3 million, purchases of property and equipment of $737,000 and proceeds from the sale of equipment of $33,000.
Net cash used in financing activities was $4.8 million in the six months ended June 30, 2001, due to the reduction of long-term debt of $3.0 million and payments on the line of credit of $3.9 million, offset by borrowings of $2.0 million and the issuance of common stock of $16,000.ITEM 3:  QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
Brass Eagle is exposed to market risk from changes in interest rates. Brass Eagle holds a derivative instrument in the form of an interest rate swap, which is viewed as a risk management tool and is not used for trading or speculative purposes. The intent of the interest rate swap is to effectively fix the interest rate on part of the borrowings under Brass Eagle's term debt. Quantitative disclosures relating to financial instruments and debt are included in the tables below.
The following table provides information on Brass Eagle's fixed maturity investments as of June 30, 2001 that are sensitive to changes in interest rates. The table also presents the debt upon which an interest rate swap agreement was entered. Since the interest rate swap effectively fixes the interest rate on the notional amount of debt, changes in interest rates have no current effect on the interest expense recorded by Brass Eagle on the portion of the debt covered by the interest rate swap.
