              NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS


1.       SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been
prepared in accordance with the accounting policies described in the Company's
Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended September 30, 1998 and
should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and
notes which appear in that report. These statements do not include all of the
information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles
for complete financial statements.

In the opinion of management, the condensed consolidated financial statements
include all adjustments (which consist mostly of normal, recurring accruals)
considered necessary for a fair presentation. The results of operations for the
three and six months ended March 31, 1999 may not necessarily be indicative of
operating results to be expected for the full fiscal year due to seasonal
fluctuations in the Company's business, changes in economic conditions and other
factors.

Certain amounts previously presented in the financial statements of prior
periods have been reclassified to conform to the current period's presentation.

COMPREHENSIVE INCOME

Effective October 1, 1998, the Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting
Standards ("SFAS") No. 130, "Reporting Comprehensive Income," which establishes
standards for reporting and display of comprehensive income and its components.
The Company's net income for the three and six months ended March 31, 1999
equals comprehensive income for the same period.

2.       INVENTORIES

Inventories consisted of the following:

3.         PROPERTY AND EQUIPMENT, NET

Shenzhen Jiadianbao Electrical Products Co., Ltd. ("SJE"), a cooperative joint
venture subsidiary of Go-Gro, and the Bureau of National Land Planning Bao-An
Branch of Shenzhen City entered into a Land Use Agreement covering approximately
467,300 square feet in Bao-An County, Shenzhen City, People's Republic of China
on April 11, 1995. The agreement provides SJE with non-transferable rights to
use this land until January 18, 2042. Under the terms of the SJE joint venture
agreement, ownership of the land and buildings of SJE is divided 70% to Go-Gro
and 30% to the other joint venture partner. Land costs, including the land use
rights, approximated $2.6 million of which Go-Gro has paid its 70% proportionate
share of $1.8 million. Under the terms of this agreement, as amended, SJE is
obligated to construct approximately 500,000 square feet of factory buildings
and 211,000 square feet of dormitories and offices, of which 40 percent was
required to be and was completed by April 1, 1997. The remainder of the
construction is required to be completed by December 31, 1999. The Company plans
to file an application to extend the completion deadline of December 1999. The
total cost for this project is estimated at $15.5 million (of which $10 million
had been expended as of March 31, 1999) and includes approximately $1 million
for a Municipal Coordination Facilities Fee (MCFF). The MCFF is based upon the
square footage to be constructed. The agreement calls for the MCFF to be paid in
installments

beginning in January 1997 of which $164,000 had been paid as of March 31, 1999.
A 162,000 square foot factory, 77,000 square foot warehouse and 60,000 square
foot dormitory became fully operational in June 1997.

4.       CONTINGENCIES

LEGAL

On June 4, 1991, the Company was served with a copy of the Complaint in the
matter of Browder vs. Catalina Lighting, Inc., Robert Hersh, Dean S. Rappaport
and Henry Gayer, Case No. 91-23683, in the Circuit Court of the 11th Judicial
Circuit in and for Dade County, Florida. The plaintiff in the action, the former
President and Chief Executive Officer of the Company, contended that his
employment was wrongfully terminated and as such brought action for breach of
contract, defamation, slander, libel and intentional interference with business
and contractual relationships, including claims for damages in excess of $5
million against the Company and $3 million against the named directors. During
the course of the litigation the Company prevailed on its Motions for Summary
Judgment and the Court dismissed the plaintiff's claims of libel and
indemnification. On February 3, 1997, the plaintiff voluntarily dismissed the
remaining defamation claims against the Company and directors. The breach of
contract claim was tried in February, 1997 and the jury returned a verdict
against the Company for total damages of $2.4 million (including prejudgment
interest). On July 14, 1997, the Court also granted plaintiff's motion for
attorney fees and costs of $1.9 million. A provision of $4.3 million was
recorded by the Company during the quarter ended March 31, 1997 and a $893,000
provision for post-judgment interest was recorded through March 31, 1999. The
Company is appealing the verdict and attorney fee award and the appeal was
argued before the Third District Court of Appeal on December 18, 1998. The
Company believes its arguments are meritorious. No decision from the District
Court has been received to date.

On December 17, 1996 White Consolidated Industries, Inc. ("White"), which has
acquired certain limited trademark rights from Westinghouse Electric Corp.
("Westinghouse") to market certain household products under the
White-Westinghouse trademark, notified the Company of a lawsuit against
Westinghouse and the Company filed in the United States District Court, for the
Northern District of Ohio. The lawsuit challenged the Company's right to use the
Westinghouse trademarks on its lighting products and alleges trademark
infringement. On December 24, 1996, Westinghouse and the Company served a
Complaint and Motion for Preliminary Injunction against White, AB Electrolux,
Steel City Vacuum Co., Inc., Salton/Maxim Housewares, Inc., Newtech Electronics
Corp., and Windmere Durable Holdings, Inc. in the United States District Court,
Eastern District of Pennsylvania, Case No. 96-2294 alleging that the defendants
had violated Westinghouse's trademark rights, breached the Agreement between
Westinghouse and White and sought an injunction to enjoin White against
interference with their contractual arrangements. In October 1997, the cases
were consolidated in the Pennsylvania case and on November 7, 1997 White filed a
Counterclaim and Third Party Claims against Westinghouse, Catalina and Minami
International Corporation alleging trademark infringement, trademark dilution,
false designation of origin, false advertising and unfair competition and
seeking injunctive relief and damages. Both the Company and Westinghouse
vigorously dispute White's allegations. Pursuant to the License Agreement
between Westinghouse and the Company, Westinghouse defended and indemnified the
Company for all costs and expenses for claims, damages and losses, including the
costs of litigation. White has agreed to withdraw its claims against the
Company.

During fiscal 1998 the Company received a number of product liability claims
relating to halogen torchieres sold by the Company to various retailers.
Management does not currently believe these claims will result in a material
uninsured liability to the Company. As a result of these claims the Company
experienced an increase in its liability insurance premiums effective for the
1999 calendar year and will now be self-insuring up to a maximum of $10,000 for
each incident occurring in calendar 1999. Based upon its experience during the
first six months of fiscal 1999, the Company does not believe that this
self-insurance provision will have a material adverse impact on the Company's
financial position or annual results of operations for fiscal 1999. However, no
assurance can be given that claims will not exceed available insurance coverage
or that the Company will be able to maintain the same level of insurance.

4.       CONTINGENCIES (CONTINUED)

The Company is also a defendant in other legal proceedings arising in the course
of business. In the opinion of management the ultimate resolution of these other
legal proceedings will not have a material adverse effect on the financial
position or annual results of operations of the Company.

YEAR 2000

The Year 2000 Issue is the result of computer programs being written using two
digits rather than four to define the applicable year. Any of the Company's
computer programs that have time-sensitive software may recognize a date using
"00" as the year 1900 rather than the year 2000. This could result in a system
failure or miscalculations causing disruptions of operations, including, among
other things, a temporary inability to process transactions, send invoices, or
engage in similar normal business activities.

The Company has developed and is currently executing a plan to make its computer
systems Year 2000 ready. The plan consists of five phases: (1) an inventory of
all systems and applications, including non-information technology systems; (2)
an assessment of the Year 2000 readiness of these existing systems and
applications; (3) remediation of Year 2000 problems identified in the assessment
phase; (4) testing of all systems and applications to verify the success of the
remediation phase and, if necessary (5) the implementation of contingency plans
for all significant systems and applications.

Phases 1 and 2 of the Company's plan were completed as of September 1, 1998. The
Company is presently engaged in phases 3 and 4 and expects to complete these
phases by July 1, 1999.

The Company has determined that its non-information technology systems are not
significantly affected by the Year 2000 Issue. With respect to information
technology systems, in 1997 the Company, during the normal course of upgrading
its systems to address its business needs and add functionality and efficiency
to its business processes, began the implementation of a new enterprise software
to replace the business applications supporting sales, distribution, inventory
management, finance and accounting for the Company's North American businesses.
The majority of the remainder of the Company's North American systems will be
made Year 2000 ready through purchased upgrades of commercial third-party
software packages. Go-Gro's systems and applications will be made Year 2000
ready through a combination of internal reprogramming/modification and purchased
upgrades of commercial third-party software packages. The internal
reprogramming/modifications of Go-Gro's systems and applications are presently
undergoing testing by an independent third party.

The Company has initiated communications with the customers, suppliers and other
companies important to its business to attempt to determine the extent to which
the Company is vulnerable to such parties' failure to resolve their own Year
2000 issues.

The Company is currently and will continue utilizing both internal and external
resources to implement its Year 2000 plan. The total incremental cost to the
Company for the Year 2000 project (excluding internal resources, the costs
associated with the new enterprise system and scheduled hardware replacements
which would have been incurred regardless of the Year 2000 Issue), all of which
will be expensed as incurred, is approximately $150,000, $19,000 of which has
been incurred as of March 31, 1999. The Company plans to fund these costs with
cash flows from operations. The costs of the Year 2000 project and the timetable
in which the Company expects to finish its Year 2000 project are based on
management's best estimates and are dependent on a number of factors, including
the continued availability of personnel and external resources.

The Company expects to be Year 2000 compliant by October 1, 1999 and has
established contingency plans in the event remediation and testing efforts
indicate any of the Company's planned systems and applications will not be Year
2000 ready. The Company's new enterprise software has been represented as Year
2000 ready by its manufacturer but should such software prove to have Year 2000
problems, the existing legacy systems will be made Year 2000 compliant through
the upgrade of the underlying database product and a limited amount of
additional programming. Contingency plans for the Company's other systems and
applications contemplate additional purchases of third-party software packages
and expanded use of external resources in remediation efforts.

4.       CONTINGENCIES (CONTINUED)

Year 2000 compliance is critical to the Company due to the importance of its
computer systems and applications to its business. The Company may also be
vulnerable to the failure of significant third parties with which the Company
does business to resolve their own Year 2000 issues. The impact on the Company
of failure by either the Company or the significant third parties with which it
does business to achieve Year 2000 compliance is not reasonably estimable,
however, the Year 2000 Issue could have a material impact on the operations of
the Company.

OTHER

As a result of recent Internal Revenue Service rulings and proposed and
temporary regulations, the Company is in the process of restructuring its
international operations in order to retain favorable U.S. tax treatment of
foreign source income. The Company believes it should be successful in this
restructuring. However, in the event the Company is unsuccessful in this effort,
the Company will likely experience an increase in its consolidated effective
income tax rate.

5.       FINANCIAL INSTRUMENT

In January 1999, the Company entered into an interest rate swap agreement
maturing May 1, 2004, to manage its exposure to interest rate movements by
effectively converting its $7.8 million debt related to the state of Mississippi
variable rate Industrial Revenue Development Bonds from a variable interest rate
to a fixed interest rate of 5.52%. Interest rate differentials paid or received
under the agreement are recognized as adjustments to interest expense.

6.       CHANGE IN CONTROL AGREEMENTS

The Company entered into Change in Control Agreements with David W. Sasnett and
Thomas M. Bluth. The Agreements expire in March 2001. Such Agreements provide
that, in the event of a change in control of the Company, if the Company
terminates the employment of either employee within certain time periods or the
Company fails to negotiate an acceptable employment agreement with the employee,
the Company shall pay the employee two times his annual base salary. In
addition, the agreements with Messrs. Bluth and Sasnett, respectively, provide
that in the event they are terminated "without cause" where there has been no
change in control, Messrs. Bluth and Sasnett, respectively, are entitled to a
severance payment equal to their annual base salary.

7.       COMMITMENT

On April 26, 1996, and as subsequently amended, the Company entered into a
license agreement with Westinghouse Electric Corporation to market and
distribute a full range of lighting fixtures, lamps and other lighting products
under the Westinghouse brand name in exchange for royalty payments. The
agreement terminates on September 30, 2002. Catalina has an option to extend the
agreement for an additional ten years. The royalty payments are due quarterly
and are based on a percent of the value of the Company's net shipments of
Westinghouse branded products, subject to annual minimum payments due.
Commencing September 30, 2000 either party has the right to terminate the
agreement during fiscal years 2000 to 2002 if the Company does not meet the
minimum net shipments of $25 million for fiscal 2000, $40 million for fiscal
2001, and $60 million for fiscal 2002. Net sales of Westinghouse branded
products amounted to $6.5 million and $3.5 million for the six months ended
March 31, 1999 and 1998, respectively.

8.       NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENT

SFAS No. 131, "Disclosures about Segments of an Enterprise and Related
Information," was issued in June 1997. SFAS No. 131 establishes standards for
the way that public companies report selected information about operating
segments in annual financial statements and requires that those companies report
selected information about segments in interim financial reports issued to
shareholders. It also establishes standards for related disclosures about
products and services, geographic areas, and major customers. SFAS No. 131,
which supersedes SFAS No. 14, "Financial Reporting for Segments of a Business
Enterprise", but retains the requirement to report information about major
customers, requires that a public company report financial and descriptive
information about its reportable operating segments. Operating segments are
components of an enterprise about which separate financial information is
available that is evaluated regularly by the chief operating decision maker in
deciding how to allocate resources and in assessing performance. Generally,
financial information is required to be reported on the basis that it is used
internally for evaluating segment performance and deciding how to allocate
resources to segments. SFAS No. 131 requires that a public company report a
measure of segment profit or loss, certain specific revenue and expense items,
and segment assets. However, SFAS No. 131 does not require the reporting of
information that is not prepared for internal use if reporting it would be
impracticable. SFAS No. 131 also requires that a public company report
descriptive information about the way that the operating segments were
determined, the products and services provided by the operating segments,
differences between the measurements used in reporting segment information and
those used in the enterprise's general-purpose financial statements, and changes
in the measurement of segment amounts from period to period. SFAS No. 131 is
effective for financial statements for periods beginning after December 15,
1997, with disclosures in interim financial statements not required in the year
of adoption. The Company has not determined the effects, if any, that SFAS No.
131 will have on the disclosures in its consolidated financial statements.

           MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION
                            AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

         Certain statements in this Management's Discussion and Analysis of
Financial Condition and Results of Operations, including without limitation
expectations as to future sales and profitability, constitute "forward-looking
statements" within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act
of 1995 (the "Reform Act"). Such forward-looking statements involve known and
unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors which may cause the actual
results, performance or achievements of the Company and its subsidiaries to be
materially different from any future results, performance or achievements
expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. Such factors include,
but are not limited to, the following: the highly competitive nature of the
lighting industry; reliance on certain key customers; consumer demand for
lighting products; dependence on imports from China; general economic and
business conditions; advertising and promotional efforts; brand awareness; the
existence or absence of adverse publicity; acceptance of new product offerings;
changing trends in customer tastes; availability, terms and deployment of
capital; availability and cost of raw materials and supplies; the costs and
other effects of legal and administrative proceedings; foreign exchange rates;
changes in the Company's effective tax rate (which is dependent on the Company's
U.S. and foreign source income) and other factors referenced in this Form 10-Q
and in the Company's annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended September 30,
1998. The Company will not undertake and specifically declines any obligation to
update or correct any forward-looking statements to reflect events or
circumstances after the date of such statements or to reflect the occurrence of
anticipated or unanticipated events.

         In the following comparison of the results of operations, the three and
six months ended March 31, 1999 and 1998 are referred to as 1999 and 1998,
respectively.

COMPARISON OF THREE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 1999 AND 1998

         Net sales and gross profit for 1999 were $42.1 million and $9.2
million, respectively, as compared to $40.2 million and $8.3 million,
respectively, for 1998. The Company generated net income of $1.2 million, ($.15
per share) in 1999 compared to $536,000 ($.07 per share) in 1998.

         The $1.9 million increase in net sales from the prior year is
attributable to higher unit sales to U.S. customers reflecting additions to core
programs and new product placements. Lamp sales decreased by $464,000 to $26.3
million and net sales for the Company's other principal line of products,
lighting fixtures, increased by $2.3 million to $15.8 million. Lamps and
lighting fixtures accounted for 62% and 38%, respectively, of net sales in 1999
compared to 66% and 34% in 1998, respectively. In 1999 and 1998, Home Depot
accounted for 28.6% and 24%, respectively, of the Company's net sales and
Wal-Mart accounted for 15.9% and 6% of net sales, respectively.

         Gross profit increased by $894,000 in 1999 due to improved margins
earned on direct sales attributable to new product placement, a more profitable
product mix and the increase in net sales. The gross profit percentage increased
from 20.6% in 1998 to 21.8% in 1999. The improvement in the gross profit
percentage is attributable to the improved margins earned on direct sales.

         Many of the Company's major customers (most notably Home Depot and
Wal-Mart) purchase from the Company primarily on a direct basis, whereby the
merchandise is shipped directly from the factory to the customer, rather than
from the Company's warehouses. Approximately 76% of the Company's sales in 1999
were made on a direct basis as compared to 56% in 1998. Sales made by the
Company on a direct basis typically generate lower per unit margins than sales
of the same items from the Company's warehouses. The amount of the Company's
sales made on a direct basis is dependent upon customer buying preferences,
which are influenced by a number of factors that vary from customer to customer.
Sales from the Company's warehouses declined during the fiscal year ended
September 30, 1998 as compared to the fiscal year ended September 30, 1997. The
Company is attempting to compensate for this decline by pursuing new channels of
distribution which will be serviced out of the Company's U.S. warehouse.
However, there can be no assurance these efforts will be successful, and the
Company may experience further declines in sales made from its U.S. warehouse.

           MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION
                            AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

         Selling, general and administrative expenses ("SG&A") increased by
$424,000 from the prior year reflecting an increase in the provision for
uncollectible accounts receivable ($285,000) and an increase in expenses related
to the Company's operations in Mexico ($168,000).

         Interest expense decreased to $671,000 in 1999 from $1 million in 1998
due to lower average outstanding borrowings and a lower average interest rate.

         Other income for 1999 consisted primarily of investment and other
miscellaneous income.

         The effective income tax rates for 1999 and 1998 were 27.9% and 23.8%,
respectively and reflect the projected impact of foreign income, which is taxed
at a significantly lower rate than U.S. income. As a result of recent Internal
Revenue Service rulings and proposed and temporary regulations, the Company is
in the process of restructuring its international operations in order to retain
favorable U.S. tax treatment of foreign source income. The Company believes it
should be successful in this restructuring. However, in the event the Company is
unsuccessful in this effort, the Company will likely experience an increase in
its consolidated effective income tax rate.

COMPARISON OF SIX MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 1999 AND 1998

         Net sales and gross profit for 1999 were $84.9 million and $17.3
million, respectively, as compared to $77.2 million and $14.9 million,
respectively, for 1998. The Company generated net income of $1.7 million ($.22
per share) in 1999 compared to $155,000 ($.02 per share) in 1998.

         The $7.7 million increase in net sales from the prior year reflects
higher unit sales to U.S. customers attributable to additions to core programs,
promotional opportunities and new product placements. Lamp sales increased by
$5.4 million and net sales for the Company's other principal line of products,
lighting fixtures, increased by $2.3 million. Lamps and lighting fixtures
accounted for 64% and 36%, respectively, of net sales in 1999 and 63% and 37% in
1998, respectively. In 1999 and 1998, Home Depot accounted for 24.1% and 25%,
respectively, of the Company's net sale and Wal-Mart accounted for 10.4% and
5.1% of net sales, respectively.

         Gross profit increased by $2.4 million in 1999 due to the increase in
net sales. The gross profit percentage increased from 19.2% in 1998 to 20.4% in
1999. The improvement in the gross profit percentage from 1998 to 1999 was
attributable to the increase in net sales, which lessened the effect on such
percentage of purchasing and warehousing costs as most of these costs are fixed,
and improved margins on direct sales.

         Many of the Company's major customers (most notably Home Depot and
Wal-Mart) purchase from the Company primarily on a direct basis, whereby the
merchandise is shipped directly from the factory to the customer, rather than
from the Company's warehouse. Approximately 74% of the Company's sales in 1999
were made on a direct basis as compared to 62% in 1998. Sales made by the
Company on a direct basis typically generated lower margins than sales from
Company's warehouses. The amount of the Company's sales made on a direct basis
is dependent upon customer buying preferences, which are influenced by a number
of factor that vary from customer to customer.

         Selling, general and administrative expenses ("SG&A") increased by
$902,000 reflecting an increase in expenses related to the Company's operations
in Mexico ($180,000) an increase in the provision for uncollectible accounts
receivable ($426,000), and an increase in professional fees ($266,000). However,
SG&A expenses were 16.4% of sales in 1999 compared to 16.8% in 1998 as a result
of the increase in sales.

         Interest expense decreased to $1.4 million in 1999 from $2 million in
1998 due to lower average outstanding borrowings and a lower average interest
rate.

         Other income for 1999 consisted primarily of investment and other
miscellaneous income.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

         The Company meets its short-term liquidity needs through cash provided
by operations, accounts payable, borrowings under various credit facilities with
banks, and the use of letters of credit from customers to fund certain of its
direct import sales activities. Lease obligations, mortgage notes, convertible
subordinated notes, bonds and capital stock are additional sources for the
longer-term liquidity and financing needs of the Company. Management believes
the Company's available sources of cash will enable it to fulfill its liquidity
requirements for the next year.

CASH FLOWS FOR THE SIX MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 1999

         The Company's operating, investing and financing activities resulted in
a net increase in cash and cash equivalents of $1.1 million from September 30,
1998 to March 31, 1999.

         The net cash of $4.8 million provided by operating activities was used
primarily to pay for capital expenditures aggregating $815,000, to pay down
credit lines, to make sinking fund redemption payments on outstanding bonds and
to repurchase Company common stock.

CREDIT AND LEASING FACILITIES, BONDS, MORTGAGE AND CONVERTIBLE
SUBORDINATED NOTES

         The Company has a $35 million credit facility with a group of
commercial banks. This facility provides credit in the form of revolving loans,
acceptances, and trade and stand-by letters of credit and matures on September
30, 2000. Borrowings under the facility bear interest, payable monthly, at the
Company's preference of either the prime rate or the LIBOR rate plus a variable
spread based upon earnings, debt and interest expense levels defined under the
credit agreement (LIBOR plus 1.8% at March 31, 1999). Obligations under this
facility are secured by substantially all of the Company's U.S. assets. The
Company is required to comply with various convenants in connection with this
facility and borrowings are subject to a borrowing base calculated from U.S.
receivables and inventory. In addition, the agreement prohibits the payment of
any cash dividends or other distribution on any shares of the Company's common
stock, other than dividends payable solely in shares of common stock, unless
approval is obtained from the lenders. At March 31, 1999, the Company had used
$13.4 million under this credit facility (loans amounted to $12.2 million) and
$7 million was available for additional borrowings under the borrowing base
calculation.

         The Company's Canadian and Hong Kong subsidiaries have credit
facilities with foreign banks of 4 million Canadian dollars (approximately U.S.
$2.6 million) and 35 million Hong Kong dollars (approximately U.S. $4.5
million), respectively. Borrowings under the Canadian facility are secured by
substantially all of the assets of the Canadian subsidiary and are limited under
a borrowing base defined, as the aggregate of certain percentages of accounts
receivable and inventory. Canadian dollar advances bear interest at the Canadian
prime rate plus .5% (7.25% at March 31, 1999) and all U.S. dollar advances bear
interest at the U.S. base rate of the bank (8.25% at March 31, 1999). At March
31, 1999, there were no borrowings under this facility and U.S. $2.2 million was
available for additional borrowings under the borrowing base calculation. The
Hong Kong facility provides credit in the form of acceptances, trade and
stand-by letters of credit, overdraft protection and negotiation of discrepant
documents presented under export letters of credit issued by banks. Advances
bear interest at the Hong Kong prime rate plus .25% (9% at March 31, 1999). Each
of these credit

facilities are payable upon demand and are subject to annual reviews by the
banks. At March 31, 1999, there were no borrowings under the Hong Kong facility
and U.S. $1.7 million was available for borrowings. With respect to the Canadian
facility, the agreement prohibits the payment of dividends and the Company is
required to comply with various covenants, which effectively restrict the amount
of funds, which may be transferred from the Canadian subsidiary to the Company.
The Hong Kong facility requires Go-Gro to maintain a minimum net worth,
prohibits the payment of dividends by Go-Gro without the prior consent of the
lender, and limits the amount of advances or loans from Go-Gro to the Company at
any time to 50% of Go-Gro's pre-tax profits for the previous 12 months.

         The Company has outstanding $7.6 million of 8% convertible subordinated
notes due March 15, 2002. The notes are convertible into common shares of the
Company's stock at a conversion price of $6.68 per share, subject to certain
anti-dilution adjustments (as defined in the Note Agreement), at any time prior
to maturity. The notes are subordinated in right of payment to all existing and
future senior indebtedness of the Company and the notes are callable at the
option of the Company with certain required premium payments. Principal payments
of approximately $2.5 million are required on March 15 in each of the years 2000
and 2001. The remaining outstanding principal and interest is due in full on
March 15, 2002. Interest is payable semiannually. The terms of the Note
Agreement require the Company to maintain specific interest coverage ratio
levels in order to increase its credit facilities or otherwise incur new debt
and to maintain a minimum consolidated net worth. In addition, the Note
Agreement prohibits the declaration or payment of dividends on any shares of the
Company's capital stock, except dividends or other distributions payable solely
in shares of the Company's common stock, and limits the purchase or retirement
of any shares of capital stock or other capital distributions.

         The Company arranged for the issuance in 1995 of $10.5 million in State
of Mississippi Variable Rate Industrial Revenue Development Bonds to finance
(along with internally generated cash flow and the Company's $1 million leasing
facility) its warehouse located near Tupelo, Mississippi. The bonds have a
stated maturity of May 1, 2010 and require mandatory sinking fund redemption
payments, payable monthly, of $900,000 per year from 1996 to 2002, $600,000 per
year in 2003 and 2004, and $500,000 per year from 2005 to 2010. The bonds bear
interest at a variable rate (4.95% at March 31, 1999) that is adjustable weekly
to the rate the remarketing agent for the bonds deems to be the market rate for
such bonds. The bonds are secured by a lien on the land, building, and all other
property financed by the bonds. Additional security is provided by an $8 million
direct pay letter of credit which is not part of the Company's credit line. The
unpaid balance of these bonds was $7.8 million at March 31, 1999. In January
1999, the Company entered into an interest rate swap agreement maturing May 1,
2004, to manage its exposure to interest rate movements for these bonds by
effectively converting its $7.8 million debt from a variable interest rate to a
fixed interest rate of 5.52%. Interest rate differentials paid or received under
the agreement are recognized as adjustments to interest expense.

         The Company financed the purchase and improvements of its Meridian
manufacturing facility through the issuance of a series of State of Mississippi
General Obligation Bonds (Mississippi Small Enterprise Development Finance Act
Issue, 1994 Series GG) with an aggregate available principal balance of
$1,605,000, a weighted average coupon rate of 6.23% and a contractual maturity
of November 1, 2009. The bonds are secured by a first mortgage on land, building
and improvements and a $1,713,000 standby letter of credit which is not part of
the Company's credit line. Interest on the bonds is payable semiannually and
principal payments are due annually. In June 1997, the Company ceased
manufacturing operations at Meridian and leased the facility to a
non-manufacturing entity and in August 1997 made a $1.5 million payment to
escrow on the bonds. The Company plans to redeem the bonds at their earliest
redemption date, approximately November 1, 1999.

SUBORDINATED NOTES (CONTINUED)

         The Company has a $1 million facility with a U.S. financial institution
to finance the purchase of equipment in the United States, of which $486,000 was
available at March 31, 1999. In addition, the Company has a leasing facility for
$9 million Hong Kong dollars (approximately U.S. $1.2 million) with a Hong Kong
financial institution to finance the purchase of equipment for its China
facilities of which $370,000 was available at March 31, 1999.

         The Company financed its corporate headquarters in Miami, Florida with
a loan payable monthly through 2004, based on a 15 year amortization schedule,
with a balloon payment in 2004. The loan bears interest at 8% and is secured by
a mortgage on the land and building. The unpaid balance of this loan was
$986,000 at March 31, 1999.

YEAR 2000

         The Year 2000 Issue is the result of computer programs being written
using two digits rather than four to define the applicable year. Any of the
Company's computer programs that have time-sensitive software may recognize a
date using "00" as the year 1900 rather than the year 2000. This could result in
a system failure or miscalculations causing disruptions of operations,
including, among other things, a temporary inability to process transactions,
send invoices, or engage in similar normal business activities.

         The Company has developed and is currently executing a plan to make its
computer systems Year 2000 ready. The plan consists of five phases: (1) an
inventory of all systems and applications, including non-information technology
systems; (2) an assessment of the Year 2000 readiness of these existing systems
and applications; (3) remediation of Year 2000 problems identified in the
assessment phase; (4) testing of all systems and applications to verify the
success of the remediation phase and, if necessary (5) the implementation of
contingency plans for all significant systems and applications.

         Phases 1 and 2 of the Company's plan were completed as of September 1,
1998. The Company is presently engaged in phases 3 and 4 and expects to complete
these phases by July 1, 1999.

         The Company has determined that its non-information technology systems
are not significantly affected by the Year 2000 Issue. With respect to
information technology systems, in 1997 the Company, during the normal course of
upgrading its systems to address its business needs and add functionality and
efficiency to its business processes, began the implementation of a new
enterprise software to replace the business applications supporting sales,
distribution, inventory management, finance and accounting for the Company's
North American businesses. The majority of the remainder of the Company's North
American systems will be made Year 2000 ready through purchased upgrades of
commercial third-party software packages. Go-Gro's systems and applications will
be made Year 2000 ready through a combination of internal
reprogramming/modification and purchased upgrades of commercial third-party
software packages. The internal reprogramming/modifications of Go-Gro's systems
and applications are presently undergoing testing by an independent third party.

         The Company has initiated communications with the customers, suppliers
and other companies important to its business to attempt to determine the extent
to which the Company is vulnerable to such parties' failure to resolve their own
Year 2000 issues.

         The Company is currently and will continue utilizing both internal and
external resources to implement its Year 2000 plan. The total incremental cost
to the Company for the Year 2000 project (excluding internal resources, the
costs associated with the new enterprise system and scheduled hardware
replacements which would have been incurred regardless of the Year 2000 Issue),
all of which will be expensed as incurred, is approximately $150,000, $19,000 of
which has been incurred as of March 31, 1999. The Company plans to fund these
costs with cash flows from operations. The costs of the Year 2000 project and
the timetable in which the Company expects to finish its Year 2000 project are
based on management's best estimates and are dependent on a number of factors,
including the continued availability of personnel and external resources.

                      AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (CONTINUED)

YEAR 2000 (CONTINUED)

         The Company expects to be Year 2000 compliant by October 1, 1999 and
has established contingency plans in the event remediation and testing efforts
indicate any of the Company's planned systems and applications will not be Year
2000 ready. The Company's new enterprise software has been represented as Year
2000 ready by its manufacturer but should such software prove to have Year 2000
problems, the existing legacy systems will be made Year 2000 compliant through
the upgrade of the underlying database product and a limited amount of
additional programming. Contingency plans for the Company's other systems and
applications contemplate additional purchases of third-party software packages
and expanded use of external resources in remediation efforts.

         Year 2000 compliance is critical to the Company due to the importance
of its computer systems and applications to its business. The Company may also
be vulnerable to the failure of significant third parties with which the Company
does business to resolve their own Year 2000 issues. The impact on the Company
of failure by either the Company or the significant third parties with which it
does business to achieve Year 2000 compliance is not reasonably estimable,
however, the Year 2000 Issue could have a material adverse impact on the
operations of the Company.

OTHER

         Shenzhen Jiadianbao Electrical Products Co., Ltd. ("SJE"), a
cooperative joint venture subsidiary of Go-Gro, and the Bureau of National Land
Planning Bao-An Branch of Shenzhen City entered into a Land Use Agreement
covering approximately 467,300 square feet in Bao-An County, Shenzhen City,
People's Republic of China on April 11, 1995. The agreement provides SJE with
non-transferable rights to use this land until January 18, 2042. Under the terms
of the SJE joint venture agreement, ownership of the land and buildings of SJE
is divided 70% to Go-Gro and 30% to the other joint venture partner. Land costs,
including the land use rights, approximated $2.6 million of which Go-Gro has
paid its 70% proportionate share of $1.8 million. Under the terms of this
agreement, as amended, SJE is obligated to construct approximately 500,000
square feet of factory buildings and 211,000 square feet of dormitories and
offices, of which 40 percent was required to be and was completed by April 1,
1997. The remainder of the construction is required to be completed by December
31, 1999. The Company plans to file an application to extend the completion
deadline of December 1999. The total cost for this project is estimated at $15.5
million (of which $10 million had been expended as of March 31, 1999) and
includes approximately $1 million for a Municipal Coordination Facilities Fee
(MCFF). The MCFF is based upon the square footage to be constructed. The
agreement calls for the MCFF to be paid in installments beginning in January
1997 of which $164,000 had been paid as of March 31, 1999. A 162,000 square foot
factory, 77,000 square foot warehouse and 60,000 square foot dormitory became
fully operational in June 1997.

         On April 26, 1996, and as subsequently amended, the Company entered
into a license agreement with Westinghouse Electric Corporation to market and
distribute a full range of lighting fixtures, lamps and other lighting products
under the Westinghouse brand name in exchange for royalty payments. The
agreement terminates on September 30, 2002. Catalina has an option to extend the
agreement for an additional ten years. The royalty payments are due quarterly
and are based on a percent of the value of the Company's net shipments of
Westinghouse branded products, subject to annual minimum payments due.
Commencing September 30, 2000 either party has the right to terminate the
agreement during fiscal years 2000 to 2002 if the Company does not meet the
minimum net shipments of $25 million for fiscal 2000, $40 million for fiscal
2001, and $60 million for fiscal 2002. Net sales of Westinghouse branded
products amounted to $6.5 million and $3.5 million for the six months ended
March 31, 1999 and 1998, respectively.

         As a result of recent Internal Revenue Service rulings and proposed and
temporary regulations, the Company is in the process of restructuring its
international operations in order to retain favorable U.S. tax treatment of
foreign source income. The Company believes it should be successful in this
restructuring. However, in the event the Company is unsuccessful in this effort,
the Company will likely experience an increase in its consolidated effective
income tax rate.

           MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION
                      AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (CONTINUED)

OTHER (CONTINUED)

         On June 3, 1998, the President of the United States extended to the
People's Republic of China "Most Favored Nation" ("MFN") treatment for the entry
of goods into the United States for an additional year, beginning July 3, 1998.
The MFN trade status has been renamed "Normal Trade Relations" because it
applies to all but a handful of U.S. trading partners. In the context of United
States tariff legislation, such treatment means that products are subject to
favorable duty rates upon entry into the United States. On July 22, 1998 the
House of Representatives supported the President's decision and rejected a bill
to impose trade sanctions against China due to alleged human rights abuses,
nuclear proliferation policies and a growing U.S. trade deficit with China.
Members of Congress and the "human rights community" will continue to monitor
the human rights issues in China and adverse developments in human rights and
other trade issues in China could affect U.S. - China relations. As a result of
various political and trade disagreements between the U.S. Government and China,
it is possible restrictions could be placed on trade with China in the future
which could adversely impact the Company's operations and financial position.

         During fiscal 1998 the Company received a number of product liability
claims relating to halogen torchieres sold by the Company to various retailers.
Management does not currently believe these claims will result in a material
uninsured liability to the Company. As a result of these claims the Company
experienced an increase in its liability insurance premiums effective for the
1999 calendar year and will now be self-insuring up to a maximum of $10,000 for
each incident occurring in calendar 1999. Based upon its experience during the
first six months of fiscal 1999, the Company does not believe that this
self-insurance provision will have a material adverse impact on the Company's
financial position or annual results of operations for fiscal 1999. However, no
assurance can be given that claims will not exceed available insurance coverage
or that the Company will be able to maintain the same level of insurance.

         The Company's board of directors has authorized the repurchase of up to
$2 million of common shares of the Company from time to time in the open market
or in negotiated purchases. As of March 31, 1999, the Company had repurchased
177,500 shares for $495,000.

IMPACT OF NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENT

         SFAS No. 131, "Disclosures about Segments of an Enterprise and Related
Information," was also issued in June 1997. SFAS No. 131 establishes standards
for the way that public companies report selected information about operating
segments in financial statements and requires that those companies report
selected information about segments in interim and annual financial reports
issued to shareholders. It also establishes standards for related disclosures
about products and services, geographic areas, and major customers. SFAS No.
131, which supersedes SFAS No. 14, "Financial Reporting for Segments of a
Business Enterprise", but retains the requirement to report information about
major customers, requires that a public company report financial and descriptive
information about its reportable operating segments. Operating segments are
components of an enterprise about which separate financial information is
available that is evaluated regularly by the chief operating decision maker in
deciding how to allocate resources and in assessing performance. Generally,
financial information is required to be reported on the basis that it is used
internally for evaluating segment performance and deciding how to allocate
resources to segments. SFAS No. 131 requires that a public company report a
measure of segment profit or loss, certain specific revenue and expense items,
and segment assets. However, SFAS No. 131 does not require the reporting of
information that is not prepared for internal use if reporting it would be
impracticable. SFAS No. 131 also requires that a public company report
descriptive information about the way that the operating segments were
determined, the products and services provided by the operating segments,
differences between the measurements used in reporting segment information and
those used in the enterprise's general-purpose financial statements, and changes
in the measurement, of segment amounts from period to period. SFAS No. 131 is
effective for financial statements for periods beginning after December 15,
1997. The Company has not determined the effects, if any, that SFAS No. 131 will
have on the disclosures in its consolidated financial statements.

ITEM 1.           LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

         On December 17, 1996 White Consolidated Industries, Inc. ("White"),
which has acquired certain limited trademark rights from Westinghouse Electric
Corp. ("Westinghouse") to market certain household products under the
White-Westinghouse trademark, notified the Company of a lawsuit against
Westinghouse and the Company filed in the United States District Court, for the
Northern District of Ohio. The lawsuit challenged the Company's right to use the
Westinghouse trademarks on its lighting products and alleges trademark
infringement. On December 24, 1996, Westinghouse and the Company served a
Complaint and Motion for Preliminary Injunction against White, AB Electrolux,
Steel City Vacuum Co., Inc., Salton/Maxim Housewares, Inc., Newtech Electronics
Corp., and Windmere Durable Holdings, Inc. in the United States District Court,
Eastern District of Pennsylvania, Case No. 96-2294 alleging that the defendants
had violated Westinghouse's trademark rights, breached the Agreement between
Westinghouse and White and sought an injunction to enjoin White against
interference with their contractual arrangements. In October 1997, the cases
were consolidated in the Pennsylvania case and on November 7, 1997 White filed a
Counterclaim and Third Party Claims against Westinghouse, Catalina and Minami
International Corporation alleging trademark infringement, trademark dilution,
false designation of origin, false advertising and unfair competition and
seeking injunctive relief and damages. Both the Company and Westinghouse
vigorously dispute White's allegations. Pursuant to the License Agreement
between Westinghouse and the Company, Westinghouse defended and indemnified the
Company for all costs and expenses for claims, damages and losses, including the
costs of litigation. White has agreed to withdraw its claims against the Company
and the legal documents are being prepared and will be filed shortly .
