**K-TELINTERNATIONAL, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES**

**NOTES TOCONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS**

**(UNAUDITED)**

## **1.****                                      BUSINESSAND LIQUIDITY**

K-telInternational, Inc. (the “Company”, “K-tel” or the “registrant”) wasincorporated in 1968 and currently has its corporate offices located inPlymouth, Minnesota. Through its operating subsidiaries, K-tel licenses itsmusic catalog internationally and markets entertainment products mainly derivedfrom its catalog through retail and direct response marketing channels in theUnited States and Europe. The Company has a focused method of distribution thattargets the strengths of selected individual retailers and supplies productssuited to each retailer’s needs. These products are derived mainly from theCompany’s master recordings music catalog with the objective of realizing morecompetitive profit margins. K-tel seeks to license its trademarks to othercompanies in businesses unrelated to K-tel’s current operations. Licenses aregranted for a royalty or fee, with no cost to the Company. 

DiscontinuedOperations

The Company’sconsumer products business, which was concentrated in Europe, consistedprimarily of house wares, consumer convenience items and exercise equipment. TheCompany discontinued its consumer products operations in Germany, the UnitedKingdom and the United States in June 2000, November 2000 and January 2001,respectively. Accordingly, these activities have been presented in theaccompanying financial statements as discontinued operations. The accompanyingcondensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared to reflect theconsumer products division as a discontinued operation. The net liabilities ofdiscontinued operations at September 30, 2004 and June 30, 2004, and lossesfrom discontinued operations for the three months ended September 30, 2004 and2003, relate primarily to legal matters and completion of statutory reportingrequirements for the former operations in Germany.

Liquidity

During the threemonths ended September 30, 2004 and 2003, the Company incurred net losses fromcontinuing operations of $152,000 and $43,000, respectively. Operatingactivities used $312,000 of cash during the three months ended September 30,2004 and provided $59,000 of cash in the three months ended September 30, 2003.Additionally, the Company had a working capital deficit of $11,019,000 atSeptember 30, 2004.

TheCompany’s ability to continue its present operations and implement futureexpansion plans successfully is contingent mainly upon its ability to maintainits line of credit arrangements with K-5 Leisure Products, Inc. (See Note 3),increase its revenues and profit margins, and ultimately attain and sustainprofitable operations. Without increased revenues and sustained profitability,the cash generated from the Company’s current operations will likely beinadequate to fund operations and service its indebtedness on an ongoing basis.Management is focusing its efforts on music licensing and limited music distribution.However, there can be no assurance that the Company will achieve profitableoperations through these efforts. The financial statements do not include anyadjustments that might result from the outcome of these uncertainties.

**2.             BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND SUMMARYOF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES**

Principles ofConsolidation - The accompanying condensed consolidatedfinancial statements include the accounts of K-tel International, Inc. and itsdomestic and foreign subsidiaries, all of which are wholly owned. Allsignificant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated.

During the quarterended March 31, 2004, the Company began to consolidate the financial statementsof Lancaster Trading Limited (“Lancaster”), a variable interest entity of whichthe Company determined it was the primary beneficiary.  Sales and purchases between Lancaster and theCompany have been eliminated in consolidation, and the additional effects ofLancaster on the Company’s operations were not material.   

RevenueRecognition – The Company derives its revenue mainly from twosources: the sale of music compilations (predominately compact discs) producedby the Company, and license revenue from the licensing of Company-ownedmasters. Revenue from music sales is recognized at the time of shipment to thecustomer, while license revenue is recognized when payment is received fromcustomers or when known amounts are receivable, as prior to that datecollection is not considered probable. Most music sales are made with a rightof return of unsold goods. Estimated reserves for returns are established bymanagement based upon historical experience and product mix and are subject toongoing review and adjustment by the Company. These reserves are recorded atthe time of sale and are reflected as a reduction in revenue. The Company’sreserve for returns was $147,000 at September 30, 2004 and $133,000 at June 30,2004.

Cost of Goods Sold– The Company expenses all product manufacturing, distribution and royaltycosts associated with music sales as cost of goods sold. The Company alsoexpenses royalties, commissions and amortization of its owned master recordingsassociated with its license revenue as costs of goods sold. 

Shipping andHandling Costs – The Company expenses within cost of goodssold all shipping and handling costs incurred in the shipment of goods.

Cash and CashEquivalents – Cash and cash equivalents consist principallyof cash and short-term, highly liquid investments with original maturities ofless than ninety days. 

Inventories– Inventories, which consists of finished goods that include all direct productcosts, are valued at the lower of cost, determined on a first-in, first-out basis,or net realizable value. 

Owned CatalogMasters – The Company capitalizes the costs to purchase ownedmaster recordings at the time of acquisition. These costs are amortized overthe estimated useful life of these master recordings, which is generally sevenyears, and represents management’s best estimate of the average period ofvalue.

Rights to UseMusic Product - Certain of the Company’s compilation productsare master recordings under license from record companies and publishers. Inmost instances, minimum guarantees or non-refundable advances are required toobtain the licenses and are realized through future sales of the product. Theamounts paid for minimum guarantees or non-refundable advances arecapitalized and charged to expense as sales are made. The unrealized portion ofguarantees and advances is included in royalty advances in the accompanyingconsolidated balance sheets. Licenses are subject to audit by licensors. Whenanticipated sales appear to be insufficient to fully recover the minimumguarantees or non-refundable advances, a provision against currentoperations is made for anticipated losses. 

Property andEquipment - Property and equipment are stated at cost.Depreciation and amortization is provided using straight line or declining balancemethods over the estimated useful lives of the assets, which range from threeto nine years.  

Long Lived-Assets– The Company evaluates its long-lived assets quarterly, or earlier if atriggering event occurs, to determine potential impairment by comparing thecarrying value of those assets to the related undiscounted future cash flows ofthe assets. If an asset is determined to be impaired, it is written down to itsestimated fair value. 

Royalties- The Company has entered into license agreements with various record companiesand publishers under which it pays royalties on units sold. The Company accruesroyalties using contractual rates and certain estimated rates on applicableunits sold. The contractual royalty liability is computed quarterly and theaccrued royalty balance is adjusted accordingly. The royalty agreements aresubject to audit by licensors.

Advertising- The Company expenses the costs of advertising when the advertising takesplace, except for direct response advertising, which is capitalized andamortized over its expected period of future benefits (usually the

period remainingunder a related contract, which is generally less than one year). Directresponse advertising consists primarily of television advertising wherebycustomers respond specifically to the advertising and where the Company canidentify the advertising that elicited the response. Advertising expenses were$27,000 and $43,000 for the three month periods ended September 30, 2004 and2003, respectively. 

Foreign Currency- The operations of foreign subsidiaries are measured in local currencies.Assets and liabilities are translated into U.S. dollars at period-end exchangerates. Revenue and expenses are translated at the average exchange ratesprevailing during the period. Adjustments resulting from translating thefinancial statements of foreign entities into U.S. dollars are recorded as acomponent of accumulated other comprehensive income or loss.

Stock-basedCompensation – The Company accounts for stock-based awards toemployees using the intrinsic value method prescribed in APB No. 25, “Accountingfor Stock Issued to Employees,” whereby the options are granted at marketprice, and therefore no compensation costs are recognized. The Company haselected to retain its current method of accounting as described above and hasadopted the SFAS Nos. 123 and 148 disclosure requirements. If compensationexpense for the Company’s various stock option plans had been determined basedupon the projected fair values at the grant dates for awards under those plansin accordance with SFAS No. 123, the Company’s pro-forma net earnings, basicand diluted earnings per common share would have been as follows:

Costof goods sold in the music segment increased to 53.9% of sales for the threemonth period ended September 30, 2004 compared to 52.3% of sales for the threemonth period ended September 30, 2003 reflecting increased production costs inthe United Kingdom.

**B.            LIQUIDITYAND CAPITAL RESOURCES**

K-telhas a Line of Credit Agreement with K-5 Leisure Products, Inc. (“K-5”), theCompany’s largest shareholder which is controlled by Philip Kives, the Chairmanof the Board, President and Chief Executive Officer of K-tel. Under the termsof the agreement (the “K-5 Facility”), K-5 has agreed to make available up to$8,000,000 to K-tel on a revolving basis. The loan bears interest at a variablerate based upon the “base rate” of a nationally recognized lending institution(4.75% at September 30, 2004), expires July 20, 2008, and is subordinated tothe Foothill loan (see below). The K-5 Facility contains the same covenants asthe Foothill loan agreement. K-tel has pledged the stock of its foreign subsidiariesas collateral for the loan, and the loan carries a subordinated position to theFoothill loan on all other assets of the Company. K-tel had outstandingbalances of $7,372,000 and $7,165,000 as of September 30, 2004 and June 30,2004 respectively under the K-5 Facility. At September 30, 2004, K-tel obtaineda waiver from K-5 for its non-compliance under the covenants, limitations andrestrictions of the credit agreement.

In addition, K-tel has a second loan agreement with K-5, under which K-5assumed rights and obligations under a loan from the Company’s former banker(Foothill Capital Corporation) pursuant to an Assignment and AcceptanceAgreement dated February 27, 2001. This Foothill loan, which has beenextended through July 20, 2008, provides for a $10,000,000 credit facilityconsisting of a $4,000,000 term loan due upon expiration, and a $6,000,000revolving facility under which borrowings are limited to a percent of eligiblereceivables. Borrowings under the facility bear interest at a variable ratebased on a “base rate” of a nationally recognized lending institutionplus 1% (5.75% at September 30, 2004) and are collateralized by the assets ofcertain Company subsidiaries in the United States, including accountsreceivable, inventories, equipment, music library and general intangibles. Theloan agreement contains certain financial and other covenants or restrictions,including the maintenance of a minimum shareholders’ equity by K-tel,limitations on capital expenditures, restrictions on music libraryacquisitions, limitations on other indebtedness and restrictions on dividendspaid by K-tel. As of September 30, 2004 and June 30, 2004, $4,000,000 wasoutstanding under the term loan and there were no borrowings under therevolving facility. At September 30, 2004, K-tel obtained a waiver from K-5 forits non-compliance under the covenants, limitations and restrictions of thecredit agreement.

K-telhad an overdraft privilege borrowing facility with The Royal Bank of Scotlandin the United Kingdom. This facility was secured by a standby letter of creditfor $55,000 provided by K-tel International Ltd., a Canadian company controlledby Philip Kives and was payable on demand in accordance with normal bankingpractices.   K-tel had no outstandingbalance as of September 30, 2004 and June 30, 2004.

K-tel has beenfunding its operations in recent years through internally generated capital andsecured loans from K-5. Assuming K-5 continues to advance funds sufficient tomeet the Company’s needs, management currently believes that K-tel hassufficient cash and borrowing capacity to ensure the Company will continueoperations for the foreseeable future. Although K-5 continues to advance fundssufficient to meet the Company’s needs at this time, there can be no assurancethat this will be adequate or continue in the future or that K-tel will be ableto obtain additional financing upon favorable terms when required.

TheCompany’s ability to continue its present operations is contingent mainly uponits ability to maintain its line of credit arrangements with K-5, increase itsrevenues and profit margins, and ultimately attain and sustain profitableoperations. Without increased revenues and sustained profitability, the cashgenerated from the Company’s current operations will likely be inadequate tofund operations and service its indebtedness on an ongoing basis. Management isfocusing its efforts on music licensing and limited music distribution.However, there can be no assurance that the Company will achieve profitableoperations through these efforts. In the event the Company is unable to fundits operations and implement its current business plan properly, it may beunable to continue operations. The financial statements do not include anyadjustments that might result from the outcome of these uncertainties.

**ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK**

Therehas been no material changes in the Company’s market risk during the threemonth period ended September 30, 2004. For additional information, refer to theCompany’s annual report on Form 10-K/A for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2004.

**ITEM4.  CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES**

Under the supervision andwith the participation of the Company’s management, including the Company’sChief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, the Company evaluated theeffectiveness of the design and operation of its disclosure controls andprocedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act).Based on that evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief FinancialOfficer concluded that, as of the end of the period covered by this report, theCompany’s disclosure controls and procedures were not effective because of thefollowing material weakness in internal control over financial reporting.

The Company didnot maintain effective controls over cash disbursements and payrolltransactions at its UK subsidiary. In September 2004, the Company discoveredthat the former Chief Financial Officer of its UK subsidiary misappropriatedfunds from the subsidiary and one of its customers. Adjustments related to thereversal of overstated expenses and the recovery of amounts misappropriated wasincluded in the restatement of the Company’s consolidated financial statementsfor the years ended June 30, 2004 and 2003.

*Inresponse to the material weakness above, the Company terminated the employee,undertook a full-scale investigation of the matter, retained a forensicauditing firm and dismissed the accounting firm in the UK that audited the UKsubsidiary’s financial books and records. In addition the Company hired a newFinancial Controller and stringent internal control procedures were created andimplemented for the Company’s purchasing, accounts payable, check signing,payroll, petty cash and financial reporting policies. Management believes thatthese procedures, implemented upon the discovery of the misappropriation offunds, will allow the Company to reestablish internal control over financialreporting.*

During the Company’squarter ended September 30, 2004, there was no change in the Company’s internalcontrol over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) or 15d-15(f)under the Exchange Act) that has materially affected, or is reasonably likelyto materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

K-tel and itssubsidiaries are also involved in other legal proceedings in the ordinarycourse of their business. With all litigation matters, management considers thelikelihood of loss based on the facts and circumstances. If managementdetermines that a loss is probable and the amount of loss can be reasonablyestimated, such amount is recorded as a liability. Although the outcome of anysuch legal proceedings cannot be predicted, in the opinion of management thereis currently no legal proceeding pending or asserted against or involving K-telfor which the outcome is likely to have a material adverse effect upon theconsolidated financial position or results of operations of K-tel.
