<p style="font-family: 'Times New Roman', Times, serif; font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 0pt; margin-bottom: 0pt;">&nbsp;</p>

<p style="font-family:'Times New Roman', Times, serif;font-size:10pt;margin:0pt;text-align:left;">For the 2017-year, CTI had consolidated net sales of $56,237,000 compared to consolidated net sales in 2016 of $64,268,000, a de<font style="font-family:'Times New Roman', Times, serif;font-size:10pt;">cline of 12.5%. However, 2016 sales included a one-time $7.8 million Black Friday promotional sale to a major retailer. Absent that sale, net sales in 2017 were essentially equal to 2016. Sales of our largest product line &ndash; foil balloons &ndash; increased in 2017 by 9.7% to $29,103,000 compared to $26,530,000 in 2016. Sales of latex balloons also increased in 2017, by 13.9%, to $9,400,000 from $8,250,000 in 2016. We experienced declines in our sales of vacuum sealing products and film products in 2017.</font></p>

<p style="font-family: 'Times New Roman', Times, serif; font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 0pt; margin-bottom: 0pt;">&nbsp;</p>

<p style="font-family:'Times New Roman', Times, serif;font-size:10pt;margin:0pt;text-align:left;">We ex<font style="font-family:'Times New Roman', Times, serif;font-size:10pt;">perienced a net loss for the year 2017 of $(1,603,000), or $(0.45) per share (basic and common) compared to net income in 2016 of $653,000, or $0.18 per share (basic and common). For the year, CTI had income from operations of $630,000. However, income was impacted by several significant factors: (i) substantial costs of financial consulting, legal expense and transactional costs related to re-financing, (ii) net interest expense of $1,556,000 and (iii) a tax charge of $712,000. Much of the tax expense is a one-time charge resulting from a valuation reserve (write-off) of a deferred tax benefit that resulted from the recent changes in the U.S tax law.</font></p>

Again, the fourth quarter last year included the one-time Black Friday promotional sale of $7.8 million and, absent that sale, our fourth quarter revenues in 2017, exceeded our 2016 fourth quarter sales by $1.2 million.</font></p>

<p style="font-family: 'Times New Roman', Times, serif; font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 0pt; margin-bottom: 0pt;">&nbsp;</p>

<p style="font-family:'Times New Roman', Times, serif;font-size:10pt;margin:0pt;text-align:left;">For the fourth quarter, CTI had a net loss of $861,000 or $(0.24) per share (basic and diluted), compared to net income in the fourth quarter of 2016 of $909,000, or $0.25 per share (basic) and $0.24 (diluted). In the f<font style="font-family:'Times New Roman', Times, serif;font-size:10pt;">ourth quarter, CTI had income from operations of $598,000, but that income again, was affected by (i) substantial costs of financial consulting, legal and transactional costs related to re-financing, (ii) interest expense of $476,000 and (iii) a tax charge of $1,025,000. The tax expense included a one-time time charge related to the write-off of deferred tax assets of $587,000.</font></p>
