<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">Operationally, we continued to gain efficiency while maintaining our industry-leading capabilities
and infrastructure. After several years of downsizing, we believe we have re-established balance
between staffing levels, capacity, and seasonal demand. A potential benefit will be steadier
output in the second half, with an associated modest improvement in factory utilization and
overhead absorption.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">Key metrics on our balance sheet also showed improvement. Inventories declined by over $6,000,000
compared to the prior year despite higher sales and timely delivery performance. Capital
expenditures remained low and continued to be focused on new product development and maintenance of
our existing infrastructure. Combined with the recent equity infusion from Wedbush and improving
trends in profitability, we hope to end the year in a stronger financial position.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">The market for educational furniture and equipment remains very competitive. Inflationary
pressures continue to push raw material and freight costs higher. We anticipate additional price
increases for the 2007 delivery season in order to maintain or improve current margins.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">We continue to direct significant efforts toward new product development and service enhancements.
Our initiatives in these areas are primarily internal. We nonetheless remain vigilant for
strategic opportunities that may present themselves as our market continues to evolve.
