                          NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                                    Unaudited

           The accompanying financial statements have not been audited, but
reflect all adjustments which, in the opinion of management, are necessary for a
fair presentation of financial position, results of operations and cash flows
for the periods presented. All adjustments are of a normal and recurring nature.
These consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the
Company's audited financial statements and notes thereto for the fiscal year
ended December 31, 1997.

           Effective at the close of business on December 31, 1996, a tax free
spin off of the Company's common stock from its former parent, Pages, was
completed (the "Distribution"). In the Distribution, for every ten shares of
Pages common stock outstanding on the record date, one and one-half shares of
the Company's common stock was distributed to Pages shareholders.

           On January 23, 1998 the Company redeemed, at a discount, the
subordinated debenture due to Pages on January 1, 2002. The debenture in the
original principal amount of $5 million was redeemed for $3.5 million.

           Also on January 23, 1998, Huntington National Bank increased the
Company's line of credit from $2 million to $5.5 million from which funds became
available to redeem the subordinated debenture due to Pages. On July 30, 1998,
the Company replaced the line of credit with the Huntington National Bank with a
$5 million line of credit with Branch Banking & Trust.

           On March 4, 1998 the Company sold its 167,000 sq. ft. Kings Mountain
warehouse. The sale netted the Company approximately $425,000. Also on March 4,
1998 the Company obtained financing from First National Bank secured by a first
deed of trust on the Shelby facilities. The loan is in the amount of $2,362,500
at an interest rate of prime plus 1/2% and will not increase or decrease more
than two percent. The term of the loan is fifteen years, callable after 5 years.

           On July 30, 1998 the Company entered into an agreement with Awards &
Gifts, Inc. and Richard W. Terlau, Jr., providing for the purchase of
substantially all assets and certain liabilities of Awards & Gifts by the
Company. Under the terms of the Asset Purchase Agreement, the assets included
Awards & Gifts customer list, machinery and equipment, inventories, Awards &
Gifts intellectual property assets, prepaid expenses, and general intangibles,
the liabilities included the assumption of an equipment lease and a real
property lease. The purchase price for the assets was $1.5 million with certain
adjustments made for pro-rated items, with $1.3 million in cash and a $200,000
promissory note. The note is secured by an Irrevocable Standby Letter of Credit
issued by Branch Banking & Trust Company. The purchase price under the Asset
Purchase Agreement was determined by arm's length negotiations between the
parties based on the market value of the assets purchased and sold. The
acquisition was financed with proceeds from its revolving credit facility with
Branch Banking & Trust Company.

           During the three months ended September 30, 1998, options were
granted under the Company's 1998 Incentive Stock Option Plan and under the
Non-Employee Director Stock Option Plan as shown on the following table. The
ending and average market price of the Company's stock for the three months
ended September 30, 1998 was $1.5937 and $2.2662, respectively.

ITEM 2: MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS
OF OPERATIONS

Quarter and Nine Months Ended September 30, 1998 Compared to Quarter and Nine
Months Ended September 30, 1997:

           Revenues for the three months ended September 30, 1998 approximated
$3.55 million, compared to $3.47 million in revenues for the three months ended
September 30, 1997, an increase of 2.2% or approximately $75,000. The increase
is attributable to new customers in the new markets with employed recognition
consultants and the acquisition of Awards & Gifts, Inc., on July 30, 1998.

           Revenues for the nine months ended September 30, 1998 approximated
$13.08 million, compared to $11.91 million in revenues for the nine months ended
September 30, 1997, an increase of 9.76% or approximately $1.16 million. The
increase is attributable to strong retention of existing customers coupled with
new customers in the new markets with employed recognition consultants, and the
acquisition of Awards & Gifts, Inc. on July 30, 1998.

           Cost of goods sold for the three months ended September 30, 1998
approximated $2.03 million, compared to approximately $2.03 million of cost of
goods sold for the three months ended September 30, 1997. As a percentage of
revenues, cost of goods sold decreased to 57.14% for the three months ended
September 30, 1998, from 58.43% for the three months ended September 30, 1997.
The 1.29% decrease in the cost of goods sold as a percentage of revenues was
principally attributable to a change in product mix and the initial phases of an
improved inventory purchasing strategy.


<PAGE>   8

           Cost of goods sold for the nine months ended September 30, 1998
approximated $7.35 million, compared to approximately $6.81 million of cost of
goods sold for the nine months ended September 30, 1997, an increase of 8.00% or
approximately $545,000. The increase in cost of goods sold was attributable to
the increase in revenues. As a percentage of revenues, cost of goods sold
decreased to 56.23% for the nine months ended September 30, 1998, from 57.15%
for the nine months ended September 30, 1997. The 0.92% decrease in the cost of
goods sold, as a percentage of revenues was principally attributable to a change
in product mix, and an improved inventory purchasing strategy.

           Selling, general, and administrative expense for the three months
ended September 30, 1998 approximated $1.75 million, compared to $1.92 million
for the three months ended September 30, 1997, a decrease of 8.8% or
approximately $170,000. The decrease in selling, general, and administrative
expense were principally attributable to benefits obtained from aggressive cost
containment policies. As a percentage of revenues, selling, general and
administrative decreased to 49.31% for the three months ended September 30,
1998, from 55.26% for the three months ended September 30, 1997. The 5.95%
decrease as a percentage of revenues were principally attributable to benefits
obtained from aggressive cost containment policies, and the increase in revenues
generated by the employed sales force.

           Selling, general and administrative expense for the nine months ended
September 30, 1998 approximated $5.60 million, compared to $5.78 million for the
nine months ended September 30, 1997, a decrease of 3.18% or approximately
$184,000. As a percentage of revenues, selling, general, and administrative
expenses decreased to 42.79% for the nine months ended September 30, 1998, from
48.51% for the nine months ended September 30, 1997. The 5.72% decrease as a
percentage of revenues was principally attributable to benefits obtained from
aggressive cost containment policies, and the increase in revenues generated by
the employed sales force.

           Interest expense was approximately $111,000 for the three months
ended September 30, 1998, compared to $94,000 for the three months ended
September 30, 1997, an increase of approximately $17,000. For the nine months
ended September 30, 1998 interest expense was approximately $238,000 compared to
approximately $352,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 1997, a decrease
of approximately $114,000. The reduction in interest expense was primarily due
to the early redemption of the Company's subordinated debenture due to Pages on
January 1, 2002. The debenture in the original amount of $5 million was redeemed
for $3.5 million. The average outstanding debt for the first nine months in 1998
approximated $2.7 million compared to $6.4 million for the first nine months in
1997. Additionally, the average interest rate for the first nine months in 1998
approximated 9.11% compared to approximately 7.51% for the same period in 1997.

           Depreciation and amortization expense was approximately $141,000 for
the three months ended September 30, 1998, compared to $92,000 for the three
months ended September 30, 1997, an increase of 53.98% or approximately $49,500.
Depreciation and amortization expense was approximately $352,000 and $266,000
for the nine months ended September 30, 1998 and 1997 respectively, an increase
of 


<PAGE>   9

32.32% or approximately $86,000. The increase in depreciation and amortization
expense was principally attributable to the depreciation of newly acquired
assets in 1997 and 1998.

           Income tax benefit was $232,800 for the nine months ended September
30, 1998, compared to an income tax benefit of $493,000 for the nine months
ended September 30, 1997. The provisions for income tax benefit were calculated
through the use of estimated income tax rates based upon the loss before taxes.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

           The Company's primary sources of liquidity have been cash generated
from operating activities and amounts available under its existing credit
facility and proceeds from the public offering of units consisting of common
stock and warrants during the third quarter of 1997. The Company's primary uses
of funds consist of financing inventory and receivables and for acquisitions.

           The Company has adopted a growth strategy, which will be accomplished
through increased efforts of the Company's existing, highly trained sales force,
in order to expand current market share and enter into new markets.

           The Company anticipates that operating cash flows during the next
twelve months, coupled with its ability to borrow under the credit facility and
the proceeds from the sale of the Kings Mountain warehouse and the first deed of
trust on the Shelby facility, will cover operating expenditures and meet the
short-term debt obligations. The Company's credit facility is due and payable in
full on July 30, 1999. Although the lender has not issued a commitment to do so,
the Company's relationship with its lender is favorable and the Company
anticipates that the credit facility will be renewed when due.

           Effective at the close of business on December 31, 1996, a tax free
spin off of the Company's common stock from its parent, Pages, was completed
(the "Distribution"). In the Distribution, for every ten shares of Pages common
stock outstanding on the record date, one and one-half shares of the Company's
common stock was distributed to Pages' stockholders. The Company entered into a
$5 million, 7% subordinated debenture with Pages simultaneously with the
Distribution in satisfaction of amounts due to Pages by the Company. The excess
of the amount due to Pages as of the Distribution over the $5 million
subordinated debenture was recorded as paid in capital. Based on the
consummation of the Distribution effective January 1, 1997, the amounts due to
Pages previously recorded as current were reclassified to long term, thus
significantly increasing the Company's net working capital, as described earlier
in this section. The Company discharged the debenture in full in January 1998
for $3.5 million.

           The Company does not anticipate any material expenditures for
property and equipment during the next twelve months.


<PAGE>   10

           The Company is aware of no trends or demands, commitments or
uncertainties that will result in, or that management believes are reasonably
likely to result in, the Company's liquidity increasing or decreasing in any
material way. The Company is aware of no legal or other contingencies, the
effects of which are believed by management to be reasonably likely to have a
material adverse effect on the Company's financial statements.

SEASONALITY

          The Company's business is highly seasonal, with approximately 39% of
its revenues and most of its profits recorded in the months of November,
December, and January. As a result, the Company's working capital requirements
are highest during November and December when the combination of receivables and
inventory are at peak levels. The Company typically experiences losses in its
second and third quarters.

          As the results from the Company's growth strategy develop, the effects
of seasonality should diminish. The business categories on which the Company has
chosen to focus offer steadier revenue flows, as well as more consistent
requirements for working capital.

INFLATION

          Although the Company cannot determine the precise effects of
inflation, inflation has an influence on the cost of the Company's products and
services, supplies, salaries, and benefits. The Company attempts to minimize or
offset the effects of inflation through increased sales volumes and sales
prices, improved productivity, alternative sourcing of products and supplies,
and reduction of other costs. The Company generally has been able to offset the
impact of price increases from suppliers by increases in the selling prices of
the Company's products and services.
