<P align="center"><FONT size="2"><B>Overview</B>
</FONT>

<P align="left"><FONT size="2">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Applica Incorporated is a Florida corporation that was incorporated in
1963. Applica is a marketer, distributor and manufacturer of a broad range of
branded and private-label small household appliances. Applica markets,
distributes and manufactures kitchen products, home products, pest control
products, pet care products and personal care products. Applica markets
products under licensed brand names, such as Black &#038; Decker&#174;, its own brand
names, such as Windmere&#174;, LitterMaid&#174; and Applica&#174;, and other
private-label brand names. Applica&#146;s customers include mass merchandisers,
specialty retailers and appliance distributors primarily in North America,
Latin America and the Caribbean.
</FONT>
<P align="left"><FONT size="2">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;We operate manufacturing facilities in China and Mexico. In 2003,
approximately 63% of the products sold by Applica were manufactured at our
facilities. In addition, we manufacture products for other consumer product
companies, which we refer to as contract manufacturing.
</FONT>
<P align="left"><FONT size="2">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Applica&#146;s manufacturing operations are conducted by two wholly owned
subsidiaries: Applica Durable Manufacturing Limited in China and Applica
Manufacturing, S. de R.L. de C.V. in Mexico. The distribution, sales, and
marketing operations are primarily handled through our U.S. operating
subsidiary, Applica Consumer Products, Inc. Applica also has separate entities
or branch offices providing distribution, sales and marketing operations in
Canada, Puerto Rico, Mexico, Chile, Argentina, Venezuela, Peru, Colombia and
Costa Rica.
</FONT>
<P align="left"><FONT size="2">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;We have one business segment for financial reporting purposes. See Note
L &#147;Business Segment and Geographic Area Information&#148; to the Consolidated
Financial Statements included in Schedule&nbsp;I to this Annual Report on Form&nbsp;10-K
for information regarding geographic area data.
</FONT>
<P align="left"><FONT size="2"><B>Business Strategy</B>
</FONT>

<P align="left"><FONT size="2">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;We have combined top brand names with a reputation for quality, durability
and innovation. We expect to achieve growth and increase profitability by
pursuing the following strategies:
</FONT>
<P align="left"><FONT size="2">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<B><I>Introduce new products and further develop our brands. </I></B>New products allow
us to generate higher margins based on their uniqueness and desirability in the
marketplace. We intend to drive revenues through innovation within our core
appliance categories, using new applications of existing technologies and new
marketing platforms. We also intend to create new categories or grow
categories in which there are smaller and more fragmented competitors through
distinctive products and brand development. Product development is being
driven by our application of existing technologies and investment in strategic
development alliances. Brand development takes its form in integrated
packaging and communication materials, as well as national advertising that is
intended to generate direct sales while also creating increased consumer demand
for our products at retail. Advertising investments in these new products
drive both broader distribution and higher sales at our retail customers.

<H5 align="left" style="page-break-before:always"><A HREF="#toc">Table of Contents</A></H5><P>
<P align="left"><FONT size="2">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Additionally, as part of our focus on new products introductions and brand
development, we are searching for other growth opportunities within and beyond
our existing businesses. We believe that the markets and industry in which we
compete may provide growth opportunities through strategic acquisitions.
</FONT>
<P align="left"><FONT size="2">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<B><I>Capitalize on consumable goods that work with our products</I></B>. We are
employing a consumables strategy to key product initiatives, which allows us to
gain recurring revenue through sales of a consumable component to be used with
our appliance. This strategy is best represented through initiatives such as
Littermaid&#174; branded clumping litter and waste receptacles for the
Littermaid&#174; Self-Cleaning Litter Box and replacement vacuum food storage bags
for the Freshguard&#153; Vacuum Sealer. Each of these consumables provides a
recurring revenue stream and an ongoing connection with the consumer. We have
applied this strategy to the projects resulting from our development
relationship with The Procter &#038; Gamble Company. The new Tide Buzz Ultrasonic
Stain Removal System involves a consumable component, the Tide&#153; Buzz&#153;
Ultrasonic Cleaning Fluid, from which Applica will gain recurring revenues.
</FONT>
<P align="left"><FONT size="2">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<B><I>Create long-term cost and quality advantages for our customers</I></B>. We will
maintain a value chain for our customer that meets their cost and quality
objectives by leveraging our manufacturing facilities with our growing
competency in strategic sourcing. We will accomplish this by ensuring that our
manufacturing plants in China and Mexico remain competitive through continuous
improvement and competitive benchmarking. Additionally, we will leverage our
global sourcing and procurement efforts to partner with suppliers who have also
committed to our continuous improvement philosophy. This relationship will
allow us to fully capitalize on our combined strengths, provide a foundation
for new product development, deliver quality consistent with the reputation of
our brands and deliver at costs that are competitive in our industry.
</FONT>
<P align="left"><FONT size="2">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<B><I>Optimize our supply chain</I></B><B>. </B>We recognize that our retail customers are our
most critical link to the consumer. We will continue to refine our supply
chain management, improving our operations across all key functional areas,
including customer service. Our goal is to continue to be a preferred
supplier to our retail customers. We will also continue to upgrade our
consumer service capabilities and improve our relationship with the consumer.

</TABLE>
<P align="left"><FONT size="2">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The kitchen products group includes cooking, beverage and food preparation
products and constitutes our largest product category. Applica provides
customers with a broad product line in the small kitchen appliances market,
primarily at mid-tier price points. Our products in this category include
toaster ovens, toasters, blenders, can openers, coffee grinders, coffee makers,
electric knives, skillets, griddles, waffle makers, deep fryers, food choppers,
food processors, mixers, rice cookers and steamers, sandwich makers and other
similar products. This category also includes the new Black &#038; Decker&#174; single
cup coffee maker that is a part of the Home Caf&#233; brewing system developed with
The Procter &#038; Gamble Company. This product will be launched in the second
quarter of 2004.

<P align="left"><FONT size="2">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The home products group includes garment care products, such as hand-held

<P align="left"><FONT size="2">category through design innovations. Additionally, in the second quarter
of 2004, Applica will launch the new Tide&#153; Buzz&#153; Ultrasonic Stain
Remover, which features a combination of a specially formulated Tide&#153;
Buzz&#153; Ultrasonic Cleaning Fluid and a Black &#038; Decker&#174; branded stain
removal appliance. This stain removal system was developed with The Procter &#038;
Gamble Company. In 2001, Applica entered the mid-price point segment of the
home environment market by launching a full array of ceramic heaters, heater
fans and utility fans under the Black &#038; Decker&#174; brand. In addition, in
January 2002, we launched a line of fans under the Black &#038; Decker&#174; brand. We
will continue to focus our home environment products on the mid-price point
market by expanding the Black &#038; Decker&#174; brand into additional areas of the
home environment category. We also distribute vacuum cleaners under the Black &#038;
Decker&#174; brand in Latin America.
</FONT>
<P align="left"><FONT size="2">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The personal care group focuses mainly on professional product lines
marketed under the Belson&#174; brand and other private label brands, and includes
hair dryers, curling irons, curling brushes, hairsetters, combs and brushes,
shears and mirrors. The products are sold primarily to beauty distributors and
beauty supply stores, which in turn sell the products to beauty salons and
professional hair stylists. Applica also supplies electric and non-electric
amenities to the lodging industry under the Jerdon&#174; and First Class&#174;
brands. These products include wall-mounted hair dryers, lighted makeup and
shaving mirrors, pulsating shower heads, coffee makers and other similar
products.
</FONT>
<P align="left"><FONT size="2">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The pet products group features the LitterMaid&#174; patented self-cleaning
cat litter box. This innovative product is supported throughout the U.S.
marketplace at retailers like Wal-Mart, Target and PetsMart. LitterMaid&#174; is
driven by a strong national TV advertising campaign and has recently undergone
a major packaging update in order to better communicate the lifestyle benefits
of the product. The LitterMaid&#174; product delivers a recurring revenue stream
from consumable accessories, including waste receptacles and LitterMaid&#174;
branded litter.
</FONT>
<P align="left"><FONT size="2">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Applica&#146;s pest control products group includes pest control and repelling
devices that use ultra-sonic or sub-sonic sound waves and chemical lures or
repellants to control insects and rodents in homes, yards and businesses. The
core of the business is its ultrasonic direct plug-in pest repellers, a result
of the Weitech, Inc. acquisition in May 2002. The category is expected to
expand and grow in the first quarter of 2004 as we launch a line of ultrasonic
pest repellers under the Black &#038; Decker&#174; brand. Another area of focus is in
mosquito control products aimed at trapping or repelling the biting pests. Two
such products are the SonicWeb&#174; and Mosquito Halo&#153;.
</FONT>
<P align="left"><FONT size="2">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Our Chinese manufacturing facility also serves as a contract manufacturer
for a range of small appliances, including air cleaners, oral care products and
pool cleaners, which it sells to small appliance companies primarily in the
United States. In late 2002, we de-emphasized production of products for
customers which would be in direct competition with products produced for sale
under our brands and are now focusing efforts on the development of projects
that are complimentary in nature. This shift resulted in a significant
decrease in contract manufacturing sales for 2003.
</FONT>
<P align="left"><FONT size="2"><B>Product Development</B>
</FONT>

<P align="left"><FONT size="2">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;As part of our ongoing strategy to deliver new, innovative and relevant
products to the consumer marketplace, we adhere to a well-defined product
development process focused on quality design, appropriate performance
characteristics, and speed-to-market. We have a product development team
dedicated to creating innovative products in and outside of our core
categories. This internal process also helps manage the improvement of
quality, performance and cost of existing products.
</FONT>
<P align="left"><FONT size="2">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;We also work closely with both retailers and suppliers to identify
consumer needs and preferences and to generate new product ideas. We evaluate
new ideas and seek to develop and acquire new products and improve existing
products to satisfy marketplace requirements and changing consumer preferences.
We design the style, features and functionality of our products to meet
customer requirements for quality, performance, product mix and pricing.
</FONT>
<P align="left"><FONT size="2">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;New products are those that require a new mold, have a new feature or
benefit, or those that have not been in our product line previously. Adding
features or providing a &#147;fresh&#148; look to existing products, either through
design upgrades or creative packaging, is a necessity for maintaining consumer
preferences, protecting existing retailer shelf space and maintaining
acceptable price points. Applica launched over 50 new products in 2003 and 200
new products in 2002, most of which were refreshes. Some of the new products
launched in 2003 include the Lids-
Off Jar Opener, the Freshguard&#153; vacuum sealer and accessories, and the
Gizmo&#153; Grater. New consumer products constituted 20% of our sales in 2003
and 18% of the sales in 2002.

<P align="left"><FONT size="2">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Applica
licenses the Black &#038; Decker&#174; brand for use in marketing small
household appliances in North America, Latin America (excluding Brazil) and the
Caribbean. In addition, Applica owns certain sub-brands, including Toast R
Oven&#153;, ProFinish&#153; and Quick N&#146; Easy&#153;, and licenses Spacemaker&#153; for under the
cabinet kitchen appliances. Applica continues to develop new sub-brands for
product differentiation at the retail level, including Gizmo&#153;,
Freshguard&#153;, SmartBrew&#153;, Prestige&#153;, Chill Buster&#153; and Silent
Force&#153;. Further, Applica has licenses from The Procter &#038; Gamble Company to
use the Tide&#174; brand in all countries in the Western Hemisphere for the
specially formulated Tide&#153; Ultrasonic Cleaning Fluid and the Home Cafe&#153;
brand worldwide for the Black &#038; Decker&#174; single cup brewing machine.
</FONT>
<P align="left"><FONT size="2">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The major portion of Applica&#146;s revenue is generated through the sale of
Black &#038; Decker&#174; branded products, which represented approximately 70% and 62%
of Applica&#146;s total consolidated revenue in 2003 and 2002, respectively. The
Black &#038; Decker&#174; brand has significant market share in the toaster oven,
coffee maker and hand-held iron categories, as well as in can openers, hand
mixers, food steamers, electric knives, food choppers and citrus juicers.
</FONT>
<P align="left"><FONT size="2">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The personal care category is targeted specifically at the salon segment
under the Belson&#174; brand and other private label programs. In addition,
Applica also sells appliances and personal care products that are targeted to
the hotel and hospitality industry through the distribution of the Jerdon&#174;
and First Class&#174; brands of products.
</FONT>
<P align="left"><FONT size="2">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Applica also manufactures and markets several products under the
LitterMaid&#174; brand. The flagship LitterMaid&#174; branded product is the
patented self-cleaning cat litter box. We have also introduced other products
under this brand, including accessories.
</FONT>
<P align="left"><FONT size="2">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Applica also has, and from time to time will enter into, licenses and
other agreements that grant it the right to use other trademarks and trade
names.
</FONT>
<P align="left"><FONT size="2"><B>Strategic Alliances</B>
</FONT>

<P align="left"><FONT size="2">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Applica continues to pursue strategic alliances to further differentiate
our products and to accelerate our growth. Such alliances may include brand
development and product development alliances. Our current alliance with The
Black &#038; Decker Corporation encompasses brand development. Applica has worked
closely with The Black &#038; Decker Corporation to ensure that the Black &#038;
Decker&#174; brand representation is seamless to the consumer.
</FONT>
<P align="left"><FONT size="2">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Additionally, Applica has entered into a joint product development
relationship with The Procter &#038; Gamble Company to develop, market, manufacture
and distribute new products. We have developed two products and are in the
process of reviewing other opportunities for joint product development with
Procter &#038; Gamble in household appliance categories. This relationship has
initially been targeted to the Black &#038; Decker&#174; brand, but may be expanded to
new brands and wider categories. As part of this relationship, we have
developed two products: the Tide&#153; Buzz&#153; Ultrasonic Stain Remover and the
Home Caf&#233; single-cup coffee maker. We anticipate that these products will be
launched in the second quarter of 2004.
</FONT>
<P align="left"><FONT size="2">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Both of these products provide the opportunity for recurring revenues
through a consumable component. For the Tide&#153; Buzz&#153; system, Applica pays
a license fee to Procter &#038; Gamble for the use of the Tide&#153; brand name and
will record all revenues related to the sale of the Tide&#153; Buzz&#153;
Ultrasonic Cleaning Fluid. For Home Caf&#233;, Applica has the opportunity to share
in revenues received by Procter &#038; Gamble from the sale of the beverage pods if
certain targets for household penetration are met by the Home Caf&#233; platform.
Applica expects that it will not meet such targets until at least 2005. If
such targets are not met by 2009, Applica will not receive any revenue related
to the sale of beverage pods.

</FONT>

<P align="left"><FONT size="2">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The raw materials used to manufacture our products are available from
numerous suppliers in quantities sufficient to meet our normal requirements.
Applica&#146;s primary raw materials include plastic resin, electrical
components, corrugated cardboard for cartons, steel, aluminum and copper.
Because the majority of our raw materials are commodity based, they are
available from at least two or more independent suppliers. Applica is not
dependent upon any single foreign source for such materials, although the cost
from alternative sources may be

<P align="left"><FONT size="2">higher. We do not maintain long-term purchase
contracts with our raw materials suppliers. Factors that are largely beyond
our control, such as movements in commodity prices for specific raw materials,
may affect the cost of these materials. As an example, our products require a
substantial amount of plastic. Because the primary resource used in
manufactured plastics is petroleum, the cost and availability of plastic varies
to a great extent with the price of petroleum. We have recently experienced
increases in the price of plastics, steel, aluminum, and copper.
</FONT>
<P align="left"><FONT size="2">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Applica purchased approximately 37% of its finished products from outside
suppliers in 2003 and 24% in 2002. Although overall we have no significant
concentration with any one supplier, certain individual products are made by
single suppliers. Going forward, management intends to outsource the
manufacture of more commodity-type household appliances to strategic sourcing
partners in China, which will significantly increase the percentage of finished
products purchased from outside suppliers. We do maintain long-term supply
contracts with certain of these suppliers, however, production amounts are
determined via separate purchase orders.
</FONT>
<P align="left"><FONT size="2"><B>Intellectual Property</B>
</FONT>

<P align="left"><FONT size="2">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Applica manufactures and distributes products with features for which we
have filed or obtained licenses for trademarks, patents and design
registrations in the United States and in several foreign countries. Our right
to these patents and trademarks is a significant part of our business and our
ability to create demand for our products is dependent to a large extent on our
ability to capitalize on them. We also rely on unpatented proprietary
manufacturing methodologies in our Mexican and Chinese manufacturing
facilities.
</FONT>
<P align="left"><FONT size="2">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;In June
1998, as part of our acquisition of the Black &#038; Decker&#174; Household
Products Group, we licensed the Black &#038; Decker&#174; brand in North America, Latin
America (excluding Brazil) and the Caribbean for four core categories of
household appliances: beverage products, food preparation products, garment
care products and cooking products. In July 2001, Applica and The Black &#038;
Decker Corporation extended the trademark license agreement through December
31, 2006. Under the agreement as extended, Applica paid guaranteed minimum
royalty payments to The Black &#038; Decker Corporation of $5.0&nbsp;million in 2003 and
has agreed to pay $12.5&nbsp;million in each year thereafter through 2006. Renewals
of the license agreement, if mutually agreed upon, are for five-year periods.
If Black &#038; Decker does not agree to renew the license agreement, Applica has 18
months to transition out of the brand name. No minimum royalty payments will
be due during such transition period. The Black &#038; Decker Corporation has
agreed not to compete in the four core product categories for a period of five
years after the termination of the license agreement.
</FONT>
<P align="left"><FONT size="2">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Upon request, Black &#038; Decker may elect to extend the license to use the
Black &#038; Decker&#174; brand to certain additional products. In 2000 and 2001,
Black &#038; Decker extended the license to heaters, fans, humidifiers,
dehumidifiers, air purifiers, deep fryers and bag sealers. In 2002, Black &#038;
Decker agreed to extend the license to ice cream makers and mixers. In 2003,
the license was further extended to certain electronic pest and insect control
products, the Tide&#153; Buzz&#153; stain removing appliance and vacuum bag
sealers.
</FONT>
<P align="left"><FONT size="2">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Further, Applica has licenses from The Procter &#038; Gamble Company to use the
Tide&#174; brand in all countries in the Western Hemisphere for the specially
formulated Tide&#153; Buzz&#153; Ultrasonic Cleaning Fluid and the Home Cafe&#153;
brand worldwide for the Black &#038; Decker&#174; single cup brewing machine.
</FONT>
<P align="left"><FONT size="2">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Applica owns the Littermaid&#174; trademark for self-cleaning litter boxes
and has extended the trademark for accessories such as litter, a litterbox
privacy tent and waste receptacles. Applica owns two patents and has exclusive
licenses to three other patents covering the Littermaid&#174; litter box. The
patents have been issued in the United States and a number of foreign
countries.
</FONT>
<P align="left"><FONT size="2">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Additional important brand names that we own include Applica&#174;,
Windmere&#174;, Jerdon&#174; and Belson&#174;. The Windmere&#174; brand is targeted to
electric kitchen appliances and to home environment products at the opening
price point segment. Belson&#174; and Jerdon&#174;, and its sub-brand First
Class&#174;, are targeted to the personal care and hospitality markets. In
addition, we acquired certain sub-brands used with our Black &#038; Decker&#174;
products, including Toast R Oven&#153;, ProFinish&#153; and Quick N&#146; Easy&#153; and licenses
Spacemaker&#153; for under the cabinet kitchen appliances.

<P align="left"><FONT size="2">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<B><I>China</I></B>. Applica Durable Manufacturing Limited is Applica&#146;s wholly owned
Hong Kong subsidiary. Applica Durable operates in China through several
processing arrangements with local governmental corporations in mainland China.
The manufacturing facilities are located in Bao An County, Guangdong Province
of China, which is approximately 60 miles northwest of central Hong Kong.
Applica Durable provides the raw materials, technical know-how, design,
training, management and supervision to the processing entities. The
processing entities provide the factory premises, the land and the labor and
are responsible for the processing, manufacturing and assembling of the
products. Such entities operate solely for the benefit of Applica Durable.
The Chinese facilities include five manufacturing plants located within a six
mile radius, constituting approximately 1.5&nbsp;million square feet.
</FONT>
<P align="left"><FONT size="2">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;We are in the process of restructuring our Chinese facilities to focus
primarily on products with proprietary technologies, such as the Tide&#153;
Buzz&#153; Ultrasonic Stain Remover. As a result, in the first quarter of
2004, management closed one factory totaling approximately 437,000 square feet.
We expect that the downsizing of the Chinese facilities will continue
throughout 2004.

approximately 150 miles northwest of Mexico City. The factory constitutes
approximately 290,000 square feet and manufactures Black &#038; Decker&#174; branded
products for distribution to both North America and Latin America. Its
capabilities include product design and tool fabrication. The Mexican facility
is certified under ISO 9001 standards. This location primarily manufactures
toaster ovens, blenders, irons and coffee makers.
</FONT>
<P align="left"><FONT size="2">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;We are in the process of restructuring our Mexican factory. As a result,
in the fourth quarter of 2003, management made the decision to reduce headcount

in Mexico in 2004.
</FONT>
<P align="left"><FONT size="2"><B>Customers</B>
</FONT>

<P align="left"><FONT size="2">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Applica markets its products primarily through mass merchandisers, but
also distributes to home improvement warehouses, specialty retailers, warehouse
clubs, drug and grocery stores, department stores, television shopping
channels, pet supply retailers, beauty supply stores, catalogers, independent
distributors and military post exchange outlets, as well as through e-commerce
websites. In 2003, Applica&#146;s top three customers were Wal-Mart Stores, Inc.,
Target Corporation and Kmart Corporation. These customers accounted for
approximately 44%, 39% and 38% of consolidated net sales in 2003, 2002 and
2001, respectively. Wal-Mart accounted for approximately 30%, 25% and 24% of
our consolidated net sales in 2003, 2002 and 2001, respectively, and was the
only customer that accounted for more than 10% of consolidated net sales in
such years.

<P align="left"><FONT size="2">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;In January 2002, Kmart Corporation and certain of its U.S. subsidiaries
filed voluntary petitions for reorganization under Chapter&nbsp;11 of the U.S.
Bankruptcy Code. Kmart is one of Applica&#146;s top three customers. Kmart
emerged from Chapter&nbsp;11 in May 2003. In 2003, 2002 and 2001, Applica had sales
of $30.2&nbsp;million, $43.5&nbsp;million and $49.4&nbsp;million, respectively, to Kmart
Corporation.

<P align="left"><FONT size="2">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Additionally, in 2002, Service Merchandise Company, Inc. and Aisenstein &#038;
Gordon, Inc., a distributor, announced that they would cease continuing
business operations and commence liquidation. In January 2003, PHD, Inc., a
distributor and significant customer of Applica, was placed into involuntary
bankruptcy, which PHD voluntarily converted to a liquidation under Chapter&nbsp;11

</FONT>

<P align="left"><FONT size="2">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Our internal marketing organization is comprised of five strategic
business units: kitchen products, home products, personal care products, pet
products and pest control products. Each business unit is responsible for
product and category analysis, pricing strategy, promotions, key cooperative
partnerships and overall category development. The business units develop
products with all Applica markets in mind. The Canadian and Latin American
marketplaces are able to take advantage of these key initiatives when
appropriate and are staffed to
provide both products and programs unique to their consumer base. We use
media advertising, cooperative advertising and collateral materials to promote
our products and develop brand awareness. Applica enhances the equity of key

<P align="left"><FONT size="2">feedback. The level of promotional effort targeted toward
sales velocity and brand building is determined by the profitability of the
category, the strategic importance of the brand and retailer plans.
</FONT>
<P align="left"><FONT size="2">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Applica&#146;s products are sold principally by an internal sales staff. The
sales teams for Wal-Mart Stores Inc. and Target Corporation are located in
Bentonville, Arkansas and Minneapolis, Minnesota, respectively, to provide full
sales operational support to our two biggest customers. We also have a
regional sales office in Chicago, Illinois that manages a national network of
sales management and account executives focused on all other key U.S.
retailers. Each sales manager has primary coverage responsibility for certain
retail accounts. We also use independent sales representatives, primarily in
Central America and the Caribbean. Additionally, we use outside sales
representatives for businesses outside of the kitchen and home categories.
This strategy allows us to keep our costs variable, while giving us access to
sales people that are knowledgeable about the categories. In addition to
directing our marketing efforts toward retailers, we sell certain of our
products directly to consumers through infomercials and our internet website.
</FONT>
<P align="left"><FONT size="2">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;We distribute our kitchen products, home products, pet products and pest
control products to retailers, including mass merchandisers, department stores,
home improvement stores, warehouse clubs, drug chains, catalog stores and
discount and variety stores. We market our personal care lines, professional
salon appliances and hair care accessories to beauticians, barbers and stylists
primarily through distributors in the United States and through professional
beauty and barber retail stores in the U.S. and to the hospitality industry.
</FONT>
<P align="left"><FONT size="2">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Our policy is to maintain an inventory base to service the rapid delivery
requirements of our customers. Because of manufacturing lead times and our
seasonal sales, it is necessary that we purchase products and thereby increase
inventories based on anticipated sales and forecasts provided by our customers
and our sales personnel.
</FONT>
<P align="left"><FONT size="2"><B>Backlog</B>
</FONT>

<P align="left"><FONT size="2">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Applica&#146;s backlog consists of commitments to order and orders for our
products, which are typically subject to change and cancellation until
shipment. Customer order patterns vary from year to year, largely because of
annual differences in consumer acceptances of product lines, product
availability, marketing strategies, inventory levels of retailers and
differences in overall economic conditions. As a result, comparisons of
backlog as of any date in a given year with backlog at the same date in a prior
year are not necessarily indicative of sales for that entire given year. As of
December&nbsp;31, 2003, Applica had a backlog of approximately $39.4&nbsp;million
compared to $36.0&nbsp;million as of December&nbsp;31, 2002. As of March&nbsp;1, 2004,
Applica had a backlog of approximately $56.2&nbsp;million. We do not believe that
the amount of backlog orders is a significant factor in our business.
</FONT>
<P align="left"><FONT size="2"><B>Seasonality</B>
</FONT>

<P align="left"><FONT size="2">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Our business is highly seasonal, with operating results varying from
quarter to quarter. We have historically experienced higher revenues in the
third and fourth quarters of the fiscal year, primarily due to increased demand
by customers in late summer for &#147;back-to-school&#148; sales and in the fall for
holiday sales. The majority of our sales occur from July through November.
</FONT>
<P align="left"><FONT size="2"><B>Competition</B>
</FONT>

<P align="left"><FONT size="2">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The sale of small household appliances is characterized by intense
competition. Competition is based on price and quality, as well as access to
retail shelf space, product design, brand names, new product introductions,
marketing support and distribution strategies. Applica competes with various
domestic and international manufacturers and distributors, some of which have
substantially greater financial and other resources than those of Applica. We
believe that our future success will depend upon our ability to develop and
distribute reliable products that incorporate developments in technology and
satisfy customer tastes with respect to style and design. It will also depend
on our ability to market a broad offering of products in each category at
competitive prices.
</FONT>
<P align="left"><FONT size="2">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Primary competitive brands in the household appliance market include
Hamilton Beach, Procter Silex, Sunbeam, Mr.&nbsp;Coffee, Oster, General Electric,
Rowenta, DeLonghi, Salton, Kitchen Aid, Cuisinart, Krups, Braun and Rival. In
addition, we compete with retailers who use their own private label brands for
household appliances.
Primary competitive brands in the personal care market include Conair,
Helen of Troy and Remington and in the home environment market include Holmes,
Patton, Pelonis, Honeywell, Duracraft, Bionaire and Lakewood. Primary
competitive brands in the pet and pest market include Doskocil, Sunbeam,
Coleman, Lentek and Mosquito Magnet.

<P align="left"><FONT size="2">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;As a manufacturer and distributor of consumer products, we are subject to
the Consumer Products Safety Act, which empowers the Consumer Products Safety
Commission to exclude from the market products that are found to be unsafe or
hazardous. Under certain circumstances, the Consumer Products Safety Commission
could require us to repurchase or recall one or more of our products. In
February 2002, Applica Consumer Products, Inc., in cooperation with the
Consumer Products Safety Commission, voluntarily recalled approximately 2.1
million Black &#038; Decker&#174; two-slice and four-slice toasters. Applica&#146;s
Canadian operating subsidiary, Applica Canada Corporation, also recalled
approximately 180,000 of these toasters in Canada.

<P align="left"><FONT size="2">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Laws regulating certain consumer products also exist in some cities and
states, as well as in other countries in which we sell our products. We
believe that we are in satisfactory compliance with all of the laws and
regulations applicable to us.
</FONT>
<P align="left"><FONT size="2">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Throughout the world, most federal, state, provincial and local
authorities require safety regulation certification prior to marketing
electrical appliances in those jurisdictions. Within the United States,
Underwriters Laboratory, Inc. (&#147;UL&#148;) is the most widely recognized
certification body for electrical appliances. UL is an independent,
not-for-profit corporation engaged in the testing of products for compliance
with certain public safety standards. We also use the ETL SEMKO division of
Intertek for certification and testing of compliance with UL, as well as other
nation- and industry-specific standards. We endeavor to have our products
designed to meet the certification requirements of, and to be certified in,
each of the jurisdictions in which they are sold.
</FONT>
<P align="left"><FONT size="2">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Certain of the products sold by Applica in the United States are also
subject to the Fair Packaging and Labeling Act. We believe that in addition to
complying with the Fair Packaging and Labeling Act, we comply with the
applicable rules and regulations of the Federal Trade Commission and other
federal and state agencies with respect to the content of advertising and other
trade practices.

North America, approximately 125 full-time employees at its operations in Hong
Kong and approximately 1,700 full-time employees in Mexico and South America.
Applica Durable also manages approximately 11,000 employees who are employed by
the mainland China processing entities. From time to time, Applica also uses
the services of seasonal employees.

Products Group, Applica Manufacturing, S. de R.L. de C.V., Applica&#146;s Mexican

C.V. under a collective bargaining agreement with the Single Workers Union of
Black &#038; Decker of the State of Queretaro, C.T.M. covering certain employees at
our manufacturing plant in Queretaro, Mexico. The wage provisions of this
collective bargaining agreement were renegotiated in the first quarter of 2004.
To date, the union has not engaged in strikes or work stoppages against
Applica. We believe that our relationships with both union and non-union
employees continue to be good.

<P align="left"><FONT size="2">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;In 2002, Applica closed its offices in Shelton, Connecticut and
consolidated the engineering, sales and marketing functions at its Miami Lakes
location. Certain back-office and supply chain functions in Canada and Latin
America were also consolidated. These consolidations resulted in the reduction
of approximately 70 employees worldwide. In the second half of 2003, Applica
reduced the workforce at its Miami Lakes location and downsized its Mexico
manufacturing operations. Additionally, we reduced our fixed costs and
capacity in our Chinese facilities and closed one factory. These
consolidations resulted in a headcount reduction of approximately 4,000
employees worldwide, including employees of the Chinese processing entities.

<P align="left"><FONT size="2">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Raw materials and components constitute a significant portion of our cost
of goods. Factors that are largely beyond our control, such as movements in
commodity prices for the specific materials we require, may affect the

manufactured plastics is petroleum, the cost and availability of plastic varies
to a great extent with the price of petroleum. Recently, we have experienced
increases in prices of petroleum, as well as steel, aluminum and copper, which

Implementation Of The New ERP System Or Other New Computer Technologies We
Install.</B></FONT></DIV>

<P align="left"><FONT size="2">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;We are in the process of implementing a significant enterprise resource
planning system, or ERP system, along with other new technology, and
complications from the project could cause considerable disruptions to our
business. While significant testing will take place and the rollout will occur
in stages, the period of change from the old system to the new system will
involve risk. Application program bugs, system conflict crashes, user error,
data integrity issues, customer data conflicts and integration issues among our
legacy systems all pose potential risks. Implementing data standards such as
UCCnet and RFID, which our largest customers are requiring that we use, all
involve significant effort across the entire organization. We expect this
implementation to be completed in 2005. However, any delays of this
implementation could impact our ability to do business and could result in
higher implementation costs and reallocation of human resources.
</FONT>
<P align="left"><FONT size="2">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;To support these new technology capabilities, we are building and
supporting a much larger and more complex information technology
infrastructure. Increased computing capacity, power requirements, back-up
capacities, broadband network infrastructure and increased security needs are
all potential fail points. We rely on other companies to maintain some of our
infrastructure. Should they fail to perform due to events outside our control,
it could affect our service levels and threaten our ability to conduct
business. Natural disasters may disrupt our infrastructure and our disaster
recovery process may not be sufficient to protect against loss.
</FONT>
<P align="left"><FONT size="2">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Additionally, our business operations are dependent on our logistical
systems, which include our order management system and our computerized
warehouse network. Any interruption in our logistical systems would impact

</FONT></DIV>

<P align="left"><FONT size="2">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Due to the consolidation of the retail industry, our customer base has
become relatively concentrated. Wal-Mart Stores, Inc., our largest single
customer, accounted for approximately 30% of our 2003 consolidated net sales,
25% of our 2002 consolidated net sales and 24% of our 2001 consolidated net
sales. Our top three customers accounted for approximately 44%, 39% and 38% of
consolidated net sales in 2003, 2002 and 2001, respectively. Although we have
long-established relationships with many of our customers, we do not have any
long-term supply contracts and purchases are generally made using individual
purchase orders. Additionally, certain of our larger customers are using
their own private label brands on household appliances that compete with our
products.
</FONT>
<P align="left"><FONT size="2">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;We must receive a continuous flow of new orders from our large,
high-volume retail customers; however, we may be unable to continually meet the

delays or cancellations of orders or significant pressure to reduce prices from
key customers could have a material adverse effect on us.
</FONT>
<P align="left"><FONT size="2">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;In addition, as a result of the desire of retailers to more closely manage
inventory levels, there is a growing trend among retailers to make purchases on
a &#147;just-in-time&#148; basis. This requires us to shorten our lead time for
production in certain cases and more closely anticipate demand, which could in
the future require the carrying of additional inventories or require us to
incur additional expenses to expedite delivery.

<P align="left"><FONT size="2">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The strength of the retail economy in the United States has a significant
impact on our performance. Weakness in consumer confidence and poor financial
performance by mass merchandisers, warehouse clubs, department stores or any of
our other customers would result in lost sales by us. A general slowdown in

International Operations.</B>
</FONT>
<P align="left"><FONT size="2">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;While we transact business predominantly in U.S. dollars and most of our
revenues are collected in U.S. dollars, a substantial portion of our costs,
such as payroll, rent and indirect operational costs, are denominated in other
currencies, such as Chinese renminbi, Hong Kong dollars and Mexican pesos. In
addition, while a small portion of our revenues are collected in foreign
currencies, such as Canadian dollars, Argentine pesos, Colombian pesos, Chilean
pesos and Venezuelan bolivars, a significant portion of the related cost of
goods sold are denominated in U.S. dollars. Changes in the relation of these
and other currencies to the U.S. dollar will affect our cost of goods sold and
operating margins and could result in exchange losses. The impact of future
exchange rate fluctuations on our results of operations cannot be accurately
predicted.
</FONT>
<P align="left"><FONT size="2">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Currently, there is renewed activity within the Chinese government
regarding the relationship between the renminbi, the Hong Kong dollar and the

<P align="left"><FONT size="2"><B>Our Business Involves The Potential For Product Recalls And Product Liability
Claims Against Us.</B>
</FONT>
<P align="left"><FONT size="2">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;As a manufacturer and distributor of consumer products, we are subject to
the Consumer Products Safety Act, which empowers the Consumer Products Safety
Commission to exclude from the market products that are found to be unsafe or
hazardous. Under certain circumstances, the Consumer Products Safety Commission
could require us to repurchase or recall one or more of our products.
Additionally, laws regulating certain consumer products exist in some cities
and states, as well as in other countries in which we sell our products, and
more restrictive laws and regulations may be adopted in the future. Any
repurchase or recall of our products could be costly to us and could damage our
reputation. If we were required to remove, or we voluntarily remove, our
products from the market, our reputation could be tarnished and we might have
large quantities of finished products that could not be sold.
</FONT>
<P align="left"><FONT size="2">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;We also face exposure to product liability claims in the event that one of
our products is alleged to have caused property damage, bodily injury or other
adverse effects. Although we maintain product liability insurance in amounts
that we believe are reasonable, we may not be able to maintain such insurance
on acceptable terms, if at all, in the future. In addition, product liability
claims may exceed the amount of insurance coverage. Additionally, we do not
maintain product recall insurance.
</FONT>
<P align="left"><FONT size="2">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;We are a defendant in four asbestos lawsuits in which the plaintiffs have
alleged injury as the result of exposure to asbestos in hair dryers distributed
by us over 20&nbsp;years ago. Although we never manufactured such products,
asbestos was used in certain hair dryers sold by us prior to 1979. There are
numerous defendants named in these lawsuits, many of whom actually manufactured
asbestos containing products. At this time, we have not confirmed coverage
under our insurance policies for the asbestos lawsuits, but we are currently
undertaking research to ascertain if coverage can be identified.
</FONT>
<P align="left"><FONT size="2">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Finally, our results of operations are susceptible to adverse publicity
regarding the quality or safety of our products. In particular, product recalls
or product liability claims challenging the safety of our products may result
in a decline in sales for a particular product. This could be true even if the
claims themselves are ultimately settled for immaterial amounts. We cannot
assure you that this type of adverse publicity will not occur or that product
liability claims will not be made in the future.

</FONT>
<P align="left"><FONT size="2">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;In September 2003, a bipartisan group of U.S. senators introduced
legislation that would impose a 27.5% duty on all imports from China until
China stopped fixing the value of its currency, the renminbi, to the dollar.
The legislation maintains that the renminbi is artificially pegged below its
market value and therefore acts as a virtual trade barrier. Since 1994, China
has pegged the renminbi at an exchange rate of 8.28 to the dollar. U.S. groups
have argued that the peg makes China&#146;s exports to the U.S. cheaper, and U.S.
exports to China more expensive, thus greatly contributing to China&#146;s trade
surplus with the U.S. A House version of the bill was also introduced.
Action has not been completed on either bills. We do not believe the
legislations will be adopted in its current form. However, because a

management more difficult for us. Because of our significant reliance on our
factory in China and third party suppliers in the Far East, our production lead

advance of customer orders. If retailers significantly change their inventory
management strategies or if they or we fail to forecast customer or consumer
demand accurately, we may encounter difficulties in filling customer orders or
in liquidating excess inventories, or may find that customers are canceling

<P align="left"><FONT size="2">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;We also rely on unpatented proprietary manufacturing methodologies and
there can be no assurance that others may not independently develop the same or
similar technology or otherwise obtain access to our technology. If we are
unable to maintain the proprietary nature of our technologies, our business,
financial condition and results of operations could be materially adversely
affected. Additionally, we manufacture our products with features for which we
have filed or obtained licenses for patents and design registrations in the
United States and in several foreign countries. With respect to our
applications for patents, there can be no assurance that any patents will be
obtained. If obtained, there can be no assurance that such patents will afford
us commercially significant protection of our technologies or that we will have
adequate resources to enforce our patents.
</FONT>
<P align="left"><FONT size="2"><B>Our Operating Results Can Be Affected By Seasonality.</B>
</FONT>
<P align="left"><FONT size="2">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Our business is highly seasonal with operating results varying from
quarter to quarter. We experience higher revenues in the third and fourth
quarters of each fiscal year primarily due to increased demand by customers for
our products in the late summer for &#147;back-to-school&#148; sales and in the fall for
holiday sales. This seasonality has also resulted in additional interest
expense to us during the third and fourth quarters of each fiscal year due to
an increased need to borrow funds to maintain sufficient working capital to
support such increased demand.
</FONT>
<P align="left"><FONT size="2"><B>We Compete With Other Large Companies That Produce Similar Products.</B>
</FONT>
<P align="left"><FONT size="2">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The markets for our products are highly competitive. We believe that
competition is based upon several factors, including price, quality, access to
retail shelf space, product features and enhancements, brand names, new product
introductions, marketing support and distribution systems. We compete with
established companies, a number of which have substantially greater facilities,
personnel, financial and other resources than we have. We also compete with our
retail customers, who use their own private label brands, and importers and
foreign manufacturers of unbranded products. Some competitors may be willing to
reduce prices and accept lower profit margins to compete with us. As a result
of this competition, we could lose market share and sales, or be forced to
reduce our prices to meet competition.
</FONT>
<P align="left"><FONT size="2"><B>Our Debt Agreements Contain Covenants That Restrict Our Ability To Take
Certain Actions.</B>
</FONT>
<P align="left"><FONT size="2">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Our credit facility and the indenture for our 10% notes impose
restrictions that affect, among other things, our ability to incur debt, pay
dividends, sell assets, create liens, make capital expenditures and
investments, and otherwise enter into certain transactions outside the ordinary
course of business. Our credit facility also requires us to maintain a minimum
borrowing base availability and meet certain financial tests. Our ability to
continue to comply
with these covenants and restrictions may be affected by events beyond our
control. The breach of any of these covenants or restrictions would result in a
default under the credit facility and the indenture, in which case our lenders
could elect to declare all amounts borrowed thereunder, together with accrued
interest, to be due and payable, foreclose on the assets securing the debt or
cease to provide additional revolving loans or letters of credit, which could
have a material adverse effect on our business.

<P align="left"><FONT size="2"><B>Our Business Can Be Adversely Affected By Newly Acquired Businesses Or
Product Lines.</B>
</FONT>
<P align="left"><FONT size="2">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Applica may acquire partial or full ownership in businesses or may acquire
rights to market and distribute particular products or lines of products. The
acquisition of a business or of the rights to market specific products or use
specific product names may involve a financial commitment by Applica, either in
the form of cash or stock consideration. In the case of a new license such
commitments are usually in the form of prepaid royalties and future minimum
royalty payments. There is no guarantee that we will acquire businesses and
develop products that will contribute positively to our earnings. Anticipated
synergies may not materialize, cost savings may be less than expected, sales of
products may not meet expectations, and acquired businesses may carry
unexpected liabilities.
</FONT>
<P align="left"><FONT size="2"><B>Government Regulations Could Adversely Impact Our Operations.</B>
</FONT>
<P align="left"><FONT size="2">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Throughout the world, most federal, state, provincial and local
authorities require Underwriters Laboratory, Inc. or other safety regulation
certification prior to marketing electrical appliances in those jurisdictions.
Most of our products have such certifications. However, there can be no
assurance that our products will continue to meet such specifications. Many
foreign, federal, state and local governments also have enacted laws and
regulations that govern the labeling and packaging of products and limit the
sale of product containing certain materials deemed to be environmentally
sensitive. A determination that we are not in compliance with such rules and
regulations could result in the imposition of fines or an award of damages to
private litigants.
</FONT>
<P align="left"><FONT size="2">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Additionally, many of our pest control products are subject to laws and
regulations by state and federal environmental agencies. A determination that
we are not in compliance with such rules and regulations could result in the
prohibition of sales of our products and the imposition of fines.

<P align="left"><FONT size="2"><B>Item&nbsp;3. Legal Proceedings</B>
</FONT>

<P align="left"><FONT size="2">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<B><I>Tilia Matters</I></B>. In May 2003, Applica brought suit against Tilia
International, Inc. in U.S. district court in Miami, Florida to invalidate
certain patents held by Tilia relating to its home vacuum packaging products.
Immediately thereafter, Tilia sued Applica in the U.S. district court in
California for alleged patent infringement by Applica&#146;s Black &#038; Decker&#174;
branded vacuum packaging machine and accessories. The California district
court action was voluntarily dismissed without prejudice by Tilia in favor of
the district court proceeding in Florida. In January 2004, Applica amended its
complaint to add allegations that Tilia has violated U.S antitrust laws. The
Florida action is in its initial stages.
</FONT>
<P align="left"><FONT size="2">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;In July 2003, Tilia filed a complaint against Applica and other parties
with the International Trade Commission, known as the ITC, in Washington D.C.
Tilia alleged infringement of its patent related to vacuum packaging machines
and requested permanent relief in the form of an exclusion order. Tilia also
sought preliminary relief, requesting a temporary exclusion order that would
prevent Applica from selling its vacuum sealer product in the U.S. Tilia&#146;s
request for a temporary exclusion order was denied by the ITC in January 2004.
Full trial before the ITC currently is scheduled for May 2004, with a final ITC
decision expected in November 2004.
</FONT>
<P align="left"><FONT size="2">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;In late September 2003, Applica also brought a nullity action in Germany
seeking to invalidate the German counterpart of the Tilia vacuum sealer machine
patent. This matter is in its initial stages.
</FONT>
<P align="left"><FONT size="2">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;We believe that the amount of ultimate liability of these matters, if any,
is not likely to have a material effect on our business, financial condition,
results of operations or liquidity. However, as the outcome of litigation is
difficult to predict, significant changes in the estimated exposures could
occur.
</FONT>
<P align="left"><FONT size="2">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<B><I>Other Matters</I></B>. Applica is subject to other legal proceedings, products
liability claims and other claims that arise in the ordinary course of our

any, in excess of applicable insurance coverage, is not likely to have a
material effect on the financial condition, results of operations or liquidity
of Applica. However, as the outcome of litigation or other claims is difficult
to predict, significant changes in the estimated exposures could occur.

Board of Directors voted to terminate Applica&#146;s Common Stock Purchase Rights
Plan. The plan was terminated by redeeming the rights that were issued under
the Amended and Restated 1995 Common Stock Purchase Rights Agreement. The
rights were redeemed at a price of $.00001 per right, payable in cash. There
was one right attached to each outstanding share of common stock.

Results of Operations</B>
</FONT>
<P align="center"><FONT size="2"><B>Overview</B>
</FONT>

<P align="left"><FONT size="2">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The following discussion of our financial conditions and results of
operations should be read in conjunction with our financial statements and the
related notes included in Schedule&nbsp;I to this Annual Report on Form&nbsp;10-K. This
discussion contains forward-looking statements. Please see &#147;Risk Factors&#148; in
Item&nbsp;1. Business above for a discussion of the uncertainties, risks and
assumptions associated with these statements.

<P align="left"><FONT size="2">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Applica is a marketer, distributor and manufacturer of a broad range of
branded and private-label small electric consumer goods. Applica markets,
distributes and manufactures kitchen products, home products, pest control
products, pet care products and personal care products. Applica markets
products under licensed brand names, such as Black &#038; Decker&#174;, its own brand
names, such as Windmere&#174;, LitterMaid&#174; and Applica&#174;, and other
private-label brand names. Applica&#146;s customers include mass merchandisers,
specialty retailers and appliance distributors primarily in North America,
Latin America and the Caribbean.
</FONT>
<P align="left"><FONT size="2">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;We operate manufacturing facilities in China and Mexico. In 2003 and
2002, approximately 63% and 76%, respectively, of the products sold by Applica
were manufactured in such facilities. In addition, we manufacture products for
other consumer products companies, which we refer to as contract manufacturing.
Management is currently focused on restructuring our manufacturing facilities
to focus on more innovative, proprietary products. We are outsourcing more
commodity-type products to strategic sourcing partners in China, which will
significantly decrease the percentage of products manufactured at our own
facilities.
</FONT>
<P align="left"><FONT size="2">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;In the fourth quarter of 2000, Applica entered into a joint product
development relationship with The Procter &#038; Gamble Company to develop,
manufacture, market and distribute new products. We have entered into
agreements related to two products and are in the process of reviewing other
opportunities for joint product development with Procter &#038; Gamble in household
appliance categories. This relationship has initially been targeted to the
Black &#038; Decker&#174; brand, but may be expanded to new brands and wider
categories. We anticipate that the first new products developed will be
launched in the second quarter of 2004.
</FONT>
<P align="left"><FONT size="2">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;In June 1996, Applica made a $1.3&nbsp;million investment representing a 50%
interest in Anasazi Partners L.P. In the fourth quarter of 2002, Anasazi
engaged an investment banker to pursue exit strategies for its equity
investment in ZonePerfect Nutrition Company. In July 2003, the ZonePerfect
Nutrition Company was sold for approximately $160.0&nbsp;million in cash, $20.0
million of which is being held in escrow at December&nbsp;31, 2003. In August 2003, Applica received a
cash distribution from Anasazi of $51.4&nbsp;million related to the sale, which
reduced Applica&#146;s investment in Anasazi. In the second half of 2003, the
general partner of Anasazi Partners L.P. began the process of liquidating the
remaining partnership investments and dissolving the partnership, which is
expected to be completed in the first quarter of 2004.
</FONT>
<P align="left"><FONT size="2">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;During 2003, we purchased $65.0&nbsp;million of our 10% notes. As of December
31, 2003, the outstanding balance was $65.0&nbsp;million. In February 2004, we
purchased an additional $4.25&nbsp;million of the 10% notes.
</FONT>
<P align="left"><FONT size="2">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;In September 2003, a bipartisan group of U.S. senators introduced
legislation that would impose a 27.5% duty on all imports from China until
China stopped fixing the value of its currency, the renminbi, to the dollar.
The legislation maintains that the renminbi is artificially pegged below its
market value and therefore acts as a virtual trade barrier. Since 1994, China
has pegged the renminbi at an exchange rate of 8.28 to the dollar. U.S. groups
have argued that the peg makes China&#146;s exports to the U.S. cheaper, and U.S.
exports to China more expensive, thus greatly contributing to China&#146;s trade
surplus with the U.S. A House version of the bill was recently introduced.
Action has not been completed on either bill. We do not believe the
legislation will be adopted in its current form. However, because a
substantial number of our products are imported from China, the adoption of
such legislation in its current or a similar form would have a material adverse
effect on our business. In response to the proposal of such legislation, there
is renewed activity within the Chinese government regarding the relationship
between the renminbi, the Hong Kong dollar and the U.S. dollar. If these
currencies are allowed to float freely, it could result in significant
fluctuations in our product costs.

<P align="left"><FONT size="2">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;In May 2002, Applica acquired Weitech, Inc. for a total of $20.0&nbsp;million,

and distribution of pest control products that emit high

Form&nbsp;10-Q subsequently filed with the SEC; however, Applica disclaims any
intention or obligation to publicly announce the results of any revisions to
any of the forward-looking statements contained herein to reflect future events
or developments.</I>
</FONT>
<P align="left"><FONT size="2">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Management anticipates that sales for the year ended December&nbsp;31, 2004
will be between $710&nbsp;million and $730&nbsp;million. Earnings per diluted share for
2004 is expected to be between $0.80 and $1.00.
</FONT>
<P align="left"><FONT size="2">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The increased sales volume is expected to result from the introduction of
the Home Caf&#233; single-cup brewing system and the Tide Buzz ultrasonic stain
removal system (both of which were co-developed with The Procter &#038; Gamble
Company), as well as increases in sales of other new Black &#038; Decker&#174; branded
products.
</FONT>
<P align="left"><FONT size="2">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Management expects gross margins to expand in 2004 as a result of the cost
reduction and retrenchment work undertaken in 2003 and a greater proportion of
higher margin, new products to be launched in 2004. Management anticipates
that gross margins will be approximately 35% in 2004.
</FONT>
<P align="left"><FONT size="2">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Management expects that selling, general and administrative operating
expenses will increase in amount in 2004, but remain at approximately 29% of
sales. Variable cost categories will increase because of higher sales volume.
Additionally, minimum royalties on the Black and Decker&#174; branded products
will increase to $12.5&nbsp;million in 2004 from $5.0&nbsp;million in 2003. Management
is planning to increase advertising and promotional spending by $11.0&nbsp;million.
These expenses will be partially offset by a decrease of approximately $7.2
million in amortization expense.
</FONT>
<P align="left"><FONT size="2">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Management anticipates that interest expense will continue to decrease to
approximately $9.0&nbsp;million for 2004.
</FONT>
<P align="left"><FONT size="2">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Capital expenditures are planned to be approximately $22.0&nbsp;million, driven
by new products and the information technology initiative. Management expects
that capital expenditures for our manufacturing operations will decrease in
2004.
</FONT>
<P align="left"><FONT size="2">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;For the quarter ended March&nbsp;31, 2004, we believe that sales will be
between $125&nbsp;million and $130&nbsp;million and there will be a loss per share of
$0.13 to $0.18. Management will continue to downsize both the Mexican and
Chinese manufacturing facilities and expects to incur up to an additional $3.0
million in severance costs and non-cash asset write-offs in the first quarter
of 2004, which did not qualify for accrual at December&nbsp;31, 2003.
</FONT>
<P align="left"><FONT size="2"><B>Use of Estimates and Critical Accounting Policies</B>
</FONT>

<P align="left"><FONT size="2">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Applica&#146;s accounting policies are more fully described in Note A of Notes
to Consolidated Financial Statements included in Schedule&nbsp;I hereto. As
disclosed in Note A, the preparation of financial statements in conformity with
generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates
and assumptions about future events that affect the amounts reported in the
financial statements and accompanying notes. Future events and their effects
cannot be determined with absolute certainty. Therefore, the determination of
estimates requires the exercise of judgment. Actual results inevitably will
differ from those estimates, and such differences may be material to the
financial statements. Applica believes that of its critical accounting
policies, the following had a significant effect on the operations for 2003 and
2002.
</FONT>
<P align="left"><FONT size="2">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Applica performs goodwill impairment tests on at least an annual basis
and more frequently in certain circumstances. Applica cannot predict the
occurrence of certain events that might adversely affect the reported value of
goodwill that totaled $62.8&nbsp;million at December&nbsp;31, 2003 and 2002. For
example, such events may include strategic decisions made in response to
economic and competitive conditions, the impact of the economic environment on
Applica&#146;s customer base, or a material negative change in its relationships
with significant customers. If events occur or circumstances change that would
more likely than not reduce the fair value of goodwill below its carrying
amount, goodwill will be tested for impairment. Applica will recognize an
impairment loss if the carrying value of the asset exceeds the fair value
determination. During the first quarter of 2002, Applica recorded a

<!-- PAGEBREAK -->
<P><HR noshade><P>
<H5 align="left" style="page-break-before:always"><A HREF="#toc">Table of Contents</A></H5><P>
<P align="left"><FONT size="2">write-down of its goodwill of $121.3&nbsp;million ($78.8&nbsp;million, net of tax).
Applica performed its annual fair value assessment as of June&nbsp;30, 2003 and no
impairment was noted. As the result of lower than expected sales of certain
core categories of Black &#038; Decker&#174; branded products in the third and fourth
quarters of 2003, Applica also performed a fair value test as of December&nbsp;31,
2003. However, no impairment was noted.
</FONT>
<P align="left"><FONT size="2">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Applica reviews long-lived assets and certain identifiable intangibles
held and used for possible impairment whenever events or changes in
circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be
recoverable. In evaluating the fair value and future benefits of its intangible
assets, management performs an analysis of the anticipated undiscounted future
net cash flows of the individual assets over the remaining amortization period.
Applica recognizes an impairment loss if the carrying value of the asset
exceeds the expected future cash flows. During 2003, in connection with an
intangible asset related to the Black &#038; Decker&#174; trademark, management
determined that a triggering event had occurred in accordance with Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards No.&nbsp;144 &#147;Accounting for Impairment or Disposal
of Long-Lived Assets&#148;. Applica performed a benefit analysis by calculating the
expected effective royalty rate in 2004 through 2006, taking into account the
minimum royalties, as well as the projected sales of Black and Decker branded
products. Based on the benefit analysis, Applica recorded an impairment charge
of $7.2&nbsp;million to write off the unamortized book value of the intangible
asset.
</FONT>
<P align="left"><FONT size="2">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Applica is also subject to income tax laws in many countries. Judgment is
required in assessing the future tax consequences of events that have been
recognized in Applica&#146;s financial statements or tax returns. Significant
management judgment is required in developing Applica&#146;s provision for income
taxes, including the determination of foreign tax liabilities, deferred tax
assets and liabilities and any valuation allowances that might be required to
be applied against the deferred tax assets. At December&nbsp;31, 2003, Applica had
deferred tax assets in excess of deferred tax liabilities of $68.7&nbsp;million.
Applica determined that it was more likely than not that $61.3&nbsp;million of such
assets will be realized, resulting in a valuation allowance of $7.4&nbsp;million as
of December&nbsp;31, 2003. Applica evaluates its ability to realize its deferred
tax assets on a quarterly basis and adjusts the amount of its valuation
allowance, if necessary. Applica operates within multiple taxing jurisdictions
and is subject to audit in those jurisdictions. Because of the complex issues
involved, any claims can require an extended period to resolve. In
management&#146;s opinion, adequate provisions for income taxes have been made.
During 2004, Applica expects that taxing authorities may complete tax audits
currently underway. The final outcome of these future tax consequences, tax
audits, and changes in regulatory tax laws and rates could materially impact
Applica&#146;s financial statements.
</FONT>
<P align="left"><FONT size="2">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Applica records allowances for estimated losses resulting from the
inability of our customers to make required payments on their balances. We
assess the credit worthiness of our customers based on multiple sources of
information and analyze such factors as our historical bad debt experiences,
publicly available information regarding our customers and the inherent credit
risk related to them, information from subscription based credit reporting
companies, trade association data and reports, current economic trends and
changes in customer payment terms or payment patterns. This assessment
requires significant judgment. If the financial condition of our customers
were to worsen, additional write-offs may be required, resulting in write-offs
that are not included in the allowance for doubtful accounts at December&nbsp;31,
2003.
</FONT>
<P align="left"><FONT size="2">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Applica is subject to various legal proceedings, product liability claims
and other claims in the ordinary course of its business. During 2003, Applica
had an increase of $5.6&nbsp;million in legal expenses, which were primarily
associated with the Tilia-related litigation matters. With respect to product
liability, Applica estimates the amount of ultimate liability in excess of
applicable insurance coverage based on historical claims experience and current
claim amounts, as well as other available facts and circumstances. We believe
that the amount of ultimate liability of our current litigation matters, if
any, is not likely to have a material effect on our business, financial
condition, results of operations or liquidity. However, as the outcome of
litigation is difficult to predict, significant changes in the estimated
exposures could occur.
</FONT>
<P align="left"><FONT size="2">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Estimates in connection with specific events have a significant effect on
accruals for, among others, the consolidation of operations, plant closings,
reduction in employees and product recalls. Estimates have also been
required with respect to our investment in a joint venture investment
partnership, Anasazi Partners, L.P. Applica makes a number of other estimates
in the ordinary course of business relating to sales returns and allowances,
warranty accruals, and accruals for promotional incentives. Historically,
changes to these estimates have not had a material impact on our financial
condition but have significantly affected operations from time to time.
However, circumstances could change which may alter future expectations.

<P align="left"><FONT size="2">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;In 2003, contract manufacturing decreased as the result of a planned
de-emphasis on production of products for customers that would be in direct
competition with products produced for sale under our brand names.
Additionally, sales of Windmere&#174; and other branded products decreased as the
result of the continued de-emphasis of Windmere&#174; branded products and lower
sales to key retailers.
</FONT>
<P align="left"><FONT size="2">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Decreases in the sales of Black &#038; Decker&#174; branded products in 2003 were
primarily the result of losses of market share in irons and toaster ovens.
These decreases were partially offset by increased sales of new products under
the Black &#038; Decker&#174; brand in the fourth quarter of 2003.

<P align="left"><FONT size="2">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;In June 2000, Kmart Corporation exercised its option to terminate its
long-term supply contract with Applica for the sale of White-Westinghouse&#174;
consumer electronic products in the United States. The termination was
effective on June&nbsp;30, 2002. On December&nbsp;31, 2002, Applica terminated the White
Westinghouse license agreement. Sales of White Westinghouse branded products
totaled $14.7&nbsp;million in 2002.
</FONT>
<P align="left"><FONT size="2">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;We expect sales of Black &#038; Decker&#174; branded products to increase in 2004
as the result of the introduction of several new products, including the Home
Caf&#233;&#153; single-cup brewing system and the Tide&#153; Buzz&#153; ultrasonic stain
removal system, both of which were co-developed with The Procter &#038; Gamble
Company. Additionally, in 2004, we anticipate that the majority of the pest
control products will be marketed under the Black &#038; Decker&#174; brand name and we
will introduce new items under the Gizmo&#153; sub brand.

<P align="left"><FONT size="2">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;In January 2002, Kmart Corporation and certain of its U.S. subsidiaries
filed voluntary petitions for reorganization under Chapter&nbsp;11 of the U.S.
Bankruptcy Code. Kmart is one of Applica&#146;s top three customers. Kmart
emerged from Chapter&nbsp;11 in May 2003. In 2003 and 2002, Applica had sales of
$30.2&nbsp;million and $43.5&nbsp;million to Kmart Corporation.

out-of-court liquidation. In 2002, Applica had sales of $2.7&nbsp;million to A&#038;G.
Applica had outstanding receivables from A&#038;G of approximately $1.7&nbsp;million and,
in connection with the liquidation, received approximately $160,000 on such
receivables.

<P align="left"><FONT size="2">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;In January 2003, PHD, Inc., a distributor and significant customer of
Applica, was placed into involuntary bankruptcy, which PHD voluntarily
converted to a liquidation under Chapter&nbsp;11 of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code. In
2002, Applica had sales of $13.4&nbsp;million to PHD, Inc. and its subsidiaries. At
the date of the bankruptcy filing, Applica had outstanding receivables of
approximately $4.3&nbsp;million, which were fully reserved at December&nbsp;31, 2003.

<P align="left"><FONT size="2">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<B><I>Product Recall Expenses. </I></B>In February 2002, Applica Consumer Products,
Inc., in cooperation with the Consumer Products Safety Commission, voluntarily
recalled approximately 2.1&nbsp;million Black &#038; Decker&#174; T1200 and T1400 toasters.
Applica&#146;s Canadian operating subsidiary, Applica Canada Corporation, also
recalled approximately 180,000 of these toasters in Canada. In 2001, Applica
took a charge to cost of sales of $13.4&nbsp;million relating to the estimated
expenses of such recalls. In 2003 and 2002, $638,000 and $8.7&nbsp;million were
charged against the accrual, respectively. During 2003, recall claims
continued to diminish considerably. In the fourth quarter of 2003, management
determined that an accrual related to the product recall was no longer required
and $4.1&nbsp;million of such accrual was reversed and was included as a reduction
of cost of sales.

million in 2003 as the result of lower sales volume and lower gross profit
margins. Applica&#146;s gross profit margin decreased to 28.9% for the year ended
December&nbsp;31, 2003 as compared to 31.4% for 2002. The gross profit margin

<P align="left"><FONT size="2">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<B><I>Impairment of Intangible Asset. </I></B>In June 1998, Applica acquired the
household products group of The Black &#038; Decker Corporation for $319.8&nbsp;million
in cash and assumed certain related liabilities. As part of the acquisition,
Applica acquired the right to use the Black &#038; Decker&#174; trademark in four
product categories: garment care, cooking, food preparation and beverage.
Applica has the right to sell products under this license agreement in North
America, Central America, and South America, excluding Brazil. The excess of
the purchase price over the estimated fair value of the acquired net assets was
$228.8&nbsp;million, of which $47.2&nbsp;million was allocated to an intangible asset
related to the Black &#038; Decker&#174; trademark and the remaining $181.6&nbsp;million was
allocated to goodwill. The $47.2&nbsp;million assigned to the fair value of the
intangible asset was based on a benefit performed by Applica as of June 1998.
For the first five years (through June&nbsp;30, 2003), the license was on a royalty
free basis for the core product categories. Mutually agreed upon renewals were
to be at the stated royalty rate, along with specified minimum royalty
payments. The agreement provided for an initial period of five years, with a
subsequent five-year extended term and up to three additional five-year
extensions.

<P align="left"><FONT size="2">products under the original four product categories for 2003, 2002, and
2001 were $399&nbsp;million, $429&nbsp;million and $446&nbsp;million, respectively. As a
result of the continuation of the lower sales of Black &#038; Decker&#174; branded
products in the four core product categories in the third and fourth quarter of
2003 (which are Applica&#146;s busiest quarters due to the seasonality of our
business), management determined that a triggering event had occurred in
accordance with SFAS 144, &#147;Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of
Long-Lived Assets&#148;. Accordingly, Applica performed a benefit analysis by
calculating the expected effective royalty rate in 2004 through 2006, taking
into account the minimum royalties as well as the projected sales of Black &#038;
Decker&#174; branded products under the original four categories. Based on the
benefit analysis, management believes that there is no remaining value in the
initial intangible asset as of December&nbsp;31, 2003. Accordingly, Applica recorded
an impairment charge of approximately $7.2&nbsp;million to write off the unamortized
book value of the intangible asset. The impairment charge is reflected in the
fourth quarter of 2003 because the decreased fourth quarter sales provided
further confirmation of an impairment. Pursuant to the requirements of SFAS
144 and as a result of Applica&#146;s benefit analysis, the impairment charge is
classified as a component of income from operations.

<P align="left"><FONT size="2">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<B><I>Interest Expense</I></B>. Interest expense decreased by $3.6&nbsp;million, or 20.5%,
to $14.0&nbsp;million for the twelve months ended December&nbsp;31, 2003, as compared to
$17.6&nbsp;million for 2002, as the result of lower debt levels and lower average
interest rates. The lower debt levels and lower interest rates resulted from
the redemption of $65.0&nbsp;million of the 10% notes. In 2004, assuming interest
rates remain at current levels, management expects interest expense to decrease
approximately $5.0&nbsp;million as a result of the 2003 note redemptions and
additional redemptions anticipated in 2004.
</FONT>
<P align="left"><FONT size="2">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<B><I>Loss On Early Extinguishment of Debt</I></B>. In July, October and November 2003,
Applica redeemed a total of $65.0&nbsp;million of its $130.0&nbsp;million 10% Senior
Subordinated Notes due 2008. The notes were redeemed, primarily using the cash
proceeds from the distribution of earnings by the Anasazi joint venture, at
prices between 103% and 105% of the principal amount, plus accrued interest up
to, but not including, the redemption date. The cost of the redemption of the
notes includes $2.8&nbsp;million in prepayment premiums and approximately $1.1
million related to the write-off of deferred financing costs. In February
2004, Applica redeemed an additional $4.25&nbsp;million of the 10% notes. The cost
of the February redemption includes $200,000 in prepayment premiums and
deferred financing costs related to the write-off.

Windmere-Durable Holdings, Inc. and Windmere Corporation, which was filed in
the United States District Court, Northern District of Illinois in January
2001. In connection with such settlement, Applica reported a one-time gain of

earnings (loss)&nbsp;of joint venture increased from a $1.5&nbsp;million loss in 2002 to
a gain of $55.6&nbsp;million in 2003. The equity in net earnings resulted primarily
from a gain in the fair value of an investment in ZonePerfect Nutrition Company
held by Anasazi Partners L.P., a partnership owned 50% by Applica.
</FONT>
<P align="left"><FONT size="2">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;In the fourth quarter of 2002, Anasazi engaged an investment banker to
pursue exit strategies for Anasazi&#146;s equity investment in ZonePerfect Nutrition
Company. In July 2003, ZonePerfect was sold for approximately $160.0&nbsp;million
in cash, $20.0&nbsp;million of which is being held in escrow. Payment of $10.0
million of the amount held in escrow is contingent on the performance of a negotiated
matter and no portion thereof has been reflected in Applica&#146;s earnings.
</FONT>
<P align="left"><FONT size="2">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;In August 2003, Applica received a cash distribution from Anasazi of $51.4
million resulting from the sale of ZonePerfect, which reduced Applica&#146;s
investment in Anasazi. Pursuant to an agreement between Applica and
the other 50% partner of Anasazi, Applica receives a disproportionate
share of the earnings related to the sale of the investment in
ZonePerfect. The funds held in escrow are to be released to the
sellers, including Anasazi, at 18 and 24&nbsp;months from date of closing, subject
to any adjustments to the escrowed funds for breaches of representations and
warranties. Management of Anasazi believes that Anasazi is entitled to receive
additional amounts with respect to the contingent negotiated matter.
Upon agreement with the purchaser of ZonePerfect, or release of the related
funds from escrow, Applica expects to record additional earnings of
approximately $3.7&nbsp;million.

<P align="left"><FONT size="2">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The remaining investments of Anasazi Partners include certain privately

<P align="left"><FONT size="2">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<B><I>Taxes</I></B>. Applica&#146;s tax expense is based on an estimated annual aggregation
of the taxes on earnings of each of its foreign and domestic operations. For
2003, Applica had an effective tax rate of 40%. The change in tax rate from
2002 resulted from a reduction in permanent differences, such as foreign
exchange translation losses. Applica expects its future effective tax rate to
approximate 40%.
</FONT>
<P align="left"><FONT size="2">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The earnings of subsidiaries in Canada, Mexico and Latin America (other
than Chile) are generally taxed at rates comparable to or higher than 35%, the
United States statutory rate. In addition, commencing on January&nbsp;1, 2002, the
earnings of Applica&#146;s Hong Kong subsidiary are also taxed at the United States
statutory rate of 35% due to Applica&#146;s intent not to permanently reinvest the
earnings outside of the United States. Applica does not make tax provisions for
the undistributed earnings of its foreign subsidiaries that it expects will be
permanently reinvested in its operations outside of the United States.

Applica applied the provisions of SFAS 142, &#147;Goodwill and Other Intangible
Assets&#148; and performed a transitional fair valued based impairment test. Based
on its impairment tests, Applica recognized an adjustment of $121.3&nbsp;million
($78.8&nbsp;million, or $3.31 per share, net of tax on a fully diluted basis) in the
first quarter of 2002 to reduce the carrying value of goodwill to its implied
fair value. Under SFAS 142, the impairment adjustment was reflected as a
cumulative effect of change in accounting principle.

filed voluntary petitions for reorganization under Chapter&nbsp;11 of the U.S.
Bankruptcy Code. In 2002 and 2001, Applica had sales of $43.5&nbsp;million and
$49.4&nbsp;million to Kmart Corporation and, at the date of the bankruptcy filing,
Applica had outstanding receivables of approximately $5.0&nbsp;million.

<P align="left"><FONT size="2">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;In July 2002, Aisenstein &#038; Gordon, Inc. (&#147;A&#038;G&#148;), a distributor, announced
that it would cease continuing business operations and undertake an
out-of-court liquidation. In 2002 and 2001, Applica had sales of $2.7&nbsp;million
and $7.1&nbsp;million, respectively, to A&#038;G. Applica had outstanding receivables
from A&#038;G of approximately $1.7&nbsp;million and, in connection with the liquidation,
received approximately $160,000 on such receivables.

<P align="left"><FONT size="2">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;In January 2003, PHD, Inc., a distributor and significant customer of
Applica, was placed into involuntary bankruptcy, which PHD voluntarily
converted to a liquidation under Chapter&nbsp;11 of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code. In
2002 and 2001, Applica had sales of $13.4&nbsp;million and $12.9&nbsp;million,
respectively, to PHD, Inc. and its subsidiaries. At the date of the bankruptcy
filing, Applica had outstanding receivables of approximately $4.3&nbsp;million,
which were fully reserved at December&nbsp;31, 2002 and 2003.

<P align="left"><FONT size="2">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<B><I>Gross Profit Margin</I></B>. Applica&#146;s gross profit margin was 31.4% in 2002 as
compared to 26.6% for 2001. The gross profit margins increased as Applica
experienced an improved product mix during 2002 and higher production levels at
its manufacturing facilities.

Such expenses increased as a percentage of sales to 26.3% from 25.0% in the
2001 period. In 2002, advertising and promotion expenses increased $10.3
million, largely as the result of increased television promotion to support new

<P align="left"><FONT size="2">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;These increases were offset by decreases in amortization expense of $10.9
million primarily as the result of the adoption of SFAS 142, &#147;Goodwill and
Other Intangible Assets&#148; and the write down of White Westinghouse related
intangibles. Additionally, distribution and freight costs decreased by $1.5
million during 2002 as the result of our supply chain management program.
</FONT>
<P align="left"><FONT size="2">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<B>Repositioning and Other Charges</B>. In the fourth quarter of 2001, Applica
took charges relating to several events in the aggregate amount of $14.8
million. These charges included $6.8&nbsp;million relating to Applica&#146;s decision to
consolidate its Shelton, Connecticut office with the headquarters located in
Miami Lakes, Florida, as well as certain back-office and supply chain functions
in Canada and Latin America. In addition, $5.2&nbsp;million of such charges related
to Applica&#146;s execution of a new four-year senior secured revolving credit
facility and the write-off of fees and expenses associated with the terminated
credit facility. Also included in the charge were $1.5&nbsp;million relating to the
devaluation of the Argentinean peso and $1.0&nbsp;million related to the settlement
of the shareholder class action litigation. In 2002, Applica incurred
repositioning expenses of $10.6&nbsp;million relating to the consolidation. These
expenses did not qualify for accrual at December&nbsp;31, 2001.
</FONT>
<P align="left"><FONT size="2">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<B><I>Interest Expense</I></B>. Interest expense decreased by $4.9&nbsp;million, or 21.8%,
to $17.6&nbsp;million for 2002, as compared to $22.5&nbsp;million for 2001. Such
decrease was largely the result of the reduction of debt and lower interest
rates.

<P align="left"><FONT size="2">in the United States District Court, Northern District of Illinois in
January 2001. In connection with such settlement, Applica reported a one-time
gain of $557,000 in the third quarter of 2002.
</FONT>
<P align="left"><FONT size="2">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<B><I>Equity in Net Earnings (Loss) of Joint Ventures. </I></B>The equity in net
earnings (loss)&nbsp;of joint ventures increased from a $128,000 loss in 2001 to a
$1.5&nbsp;million loss in 2002. This increase was due to Applica&#146;s losses of
approximately $1.5&nbsp;million related to its investment in a Florida limited
liability company. Applica has no additional commitments or exposure related
to this investment. During 2002, Applica did not reflect any equity in net
earnings (loss)&nbsp;related to its investment in Anasazi Partners, L.P. Anasazi&#146;s
investments include certain privately traded securities whose values have been
estimated by the general partner in the absence of readily ascertainable market
values. Fair value of these securities may differ significantly from the
values that would have been used had a ready market for the securities existed.
</FONT>
<P align="left"><FONT size="2">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<B><I>Taxes</I></B>. Applica&#146;s tax expense is based on an estimated annual aggregation
of the taxes on earnings of each of its foreign and domestic operations. For
2002, Applica had an effective tax rate of 48.9%. The change in tax rate from
2001 resulted from additional tax expense of $10.1&nbsp;million in 2001 due to the
repatriation of previously untaxed earnings. In addition, in 2002 Applica
incurred additional permanent differences, such as foreign exchange translation
losses.
</FONT>
<P align="left"><FONT size="2">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The earnings of subsidiaries in Canada, Mexico and Latin America (other
than Chile) are generally taxed at rates comparable to or higher than 35%, the
United States statutory rate. In addition, commencing on January&nbsp;1, 2002, the
earnings of Applica&#146;s Hong Kong subsidiary are also taxed at the United States
statutory rate of 35% due to Applica&#146;s intent not to permanently reinvest the
earnings outside of the United States. Applica does not make tax provisions for
the undistributed earnings of its foreign subsidiaries that it expects will be
permanently reinvested in its operations outside of the United States.
</FONT>
<P align="left"><FONT size="2">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;For additional information regarding taxes, see Note I of the Notes to
Consolidated Financial Statements included in Schedule&nbsp;I of this Annual Report
on Form&nbsp;10-K.
</FONT>
<P align="left"><FONT size="2">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<B><I>Cumulative Effect of Change in Accounting Principle</I></B>. In January 2002,
Applica applied the provisions of SFAS 142, &#147;Goodwill and Other Intangible
Assets&#148; and performed a transitional fair valued based impairment test. Based
on its impairment tests, Applica recognized an adjustment of $121.3&nbsp;million
($78.8&nbsp;million, or $3.31 per share, net of tax on a fully diluted basis) in the
first quarter of 2002 to reduce the carrying value of goodwill to its implied
fair value. Under SFAS 142, the impairment adjustment was reflected as a
cumulative effect of change in accounting principle.
</FONT>
<P align="left"><FONT size="2">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<B><I>Earnings Per Share</I></B>. Basic shares for the periods ended December&nbsp;31, 2002
and 2001 were 23,415,186 and 23,135,222, respectively. Included in diluted
shares is the dilutive effect of common stock equivalents relating to options
of 403,275 for the period ended December&nbsp;31, 2002. All common stock
equivalents were excluded from the per share calculations in 2001 as Applica
incurred a net loss before cumulative effect of change in accounting principle
in the period and such inclusion would have been anti-dilutive.

<P align="left"><FONT size="2"><B>Liquidity</B>
</FONT>

<P align="left"><FONT size="2">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Applica&#146;s financial condition and liquidity remained adequate as of
December&nbsp;31, 2003. Cash and cash equivalents amounted to $12.7&nbsp;million at
December&nbsp;31, 2003 compared to $7.7&nbsp;million at December&nbsp;31, 2002. The increase
in cash and marketable securities was primarily the result of higher
collections during the last few days of the year and the timing of
expenditures. Any excess cash in the United States is used to pay down
Applica&#146;s borrowings under its domestic credit facility on the next business
day.
</FONT>
<P align="left"><FONT size="2">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<B><I>Operating Activities</I></B><I>. </I>Operations generated cash of $27.5&nbsp;million for the
year ended December&nbsp;31, 2003, as compared to $52.0&nbsp;million net cash provided in
the year ended December&nbsp;31, 2002. The decrease in operating cash flows from
the prior year was principally due to lower operating earnings of $39.7
million, partially offset by a decrease in working capital (which is comprised
of current assets less current liabilities) of $14.3&nbsp;million.
</FONT>
<P align="left"><FONT size="2">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;As part of its capital management focus, Applica reviews certain working
capital metrics. For example, management evaluates accounts receivable and

<P align="left"><FONT size="2">and inventory turns. The number of day&#146;s sales outstanding as of December
31, 2003 decreased by approximately seven days as compared to the prior period.
This decrease in average days sales outstanding, coupled with lower sales
volume, resulted in a source of cash of $13.3&nbsp;million. Average inventory turns
during 2003 decreased from the prior period due to lower than forecasted sales
during the year. However, through focused inventory management in the fourth
quarter of 2003, we decreased our inventory resulting in a source of cash of
$2.8&nbsp;million for the year ended December&nbsp;31, 2003.
</FONT>
<P align="left"><FONT size="2">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<B><I>Investing Activities</I></B>. For the year ended December&nbsp;31, 2003, investing
activities generated cash of $33.4&nbsp;million compared to $31.5&nbsp;million of cash
used in 2002. Cash flow from investing activities benefited from the cash
proceeds of $51.4&nbsp;million received from Anasazi Partners L.P., our 50% joint
venture, in connection with the sale of its investment in Zone Perfect
Nutrition Company. In addition, investing activities for the year ended
December&nbsp;31, 2002 included a payment of $17.0&nbsp;million in connection with the
acquisition of Weitech, Inc.

redeemed primarily using the cash distribution received from Anasazi Partners.
There were no such redemptions in 2002. The increase was partially offset by
net borrowings under lines of credit of $7.8&nbsp;million in 2003, as compared to
net payments of $38.1&nbsp;million in 2002.

domestic credit facility is a $205&nbsp;million asset-based senior secured revolving
credit facility maturing December&nbsp;28, 2005. As of March&nbsp;1, 2004, Applica was
borrowing approximately $30.9&nbsp;million under the facility and had approximately
$47.1&nbsp;million available for future cash borrowings, based on Applica&#146;s

<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Certain of Applica&#146;s foreign subsidiaries have approximately $14.5&nbsp;million
in trade finance lines of credit, payable on demand, which are secured by the
subsidiaries&#146; tangible and intangible property, and in some cases, a guarantee
by the parent company, Applica Incorporated. As of December&nbsp;31, 2003, there
were no amounts outstanding under the working capital lines and $258,000
outstanding under the letter of credit lines. As of March&nbsp;1, 2004, there were
no amounts outstanding under the working capital lines and $300,000 under the
letter of credit lines.


<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;In addition, Applica has senior subordinated notes bearing interest at a
rate of 10%, payable semiannually, and mature on July&nbsp;31, 2008. The notes are
general unsecured obligations of Applica Incorporated and rank subordinate in
right of payment to all senior debt of Applica and rank pari passu in right of
payment to all future subordinated indebtedness of Applica. The notes may be
redeemed at the option of Applica, in whole or in part, on or after July&nbsp;31,
2003 at various redemption prices. During 2003, we repurchased $65.0&nbsp;million
of these notes. As of December&nbsp;31, 2003, the outstanding balance was $65.0
million. In February&nbsp;2004, we repurchased an additional $4.25&nbsp;million of 10%
notes. See Note G of the Consolidated Financial Statements included in
Schedule&nbsp;I to this Annual Report on Form 10-K for more detailed information
regarding Applica&#146;s borrowings.


<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;On September&nbsp;28, 2002, Applica entered into credit approved receivables
purchasing agreements with CIT Group/Commercial Services, Inc. The agreements
allow Applica to transfer to CIT, without recourse, approved receivables of
specified customers under certain circumstances, including the bankruptcy of
covered customers. Applica remains the servicer of the approved receivables
and pays fees based upon a percentage of the gross face amount of each approved
receivable. These arrangements are strictly for the purpose of insuring
selected receivables. At December&nbsp;31, 2003 and 2002, $16.5&nbsp;million and $4.4
million of accounts receivable were insured under this arrangement.


<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;In April&nbsp;2002, Applica Consumer Products, Inc. entered into a five-year
$6.0&nbsp;million mortgage loan on Applica&#146;s executive offices located in Miami
Lakes, Florida. The loan bears interest at an annual rate of 7.25%,
with monthly principal and interest payments based on a 20-year
amortization. A final balloon payment is due at the end of the term. The loan
is secured by a mortgage on the property and the building located thereon. In
November&nbsp;2003, Applica entered into an agreement to sell its executive offices
located in Miami Lakes for $9.5&nbsp;million. The sale is scheduled to close in
July&nbsp;2004. At the time of closing, approximately $6.0&nbsp;million of these
proceeds will be used to repay the outstanding mortgage on the property.
Applica&#146;s intention is to enter into a non-cancelable long-term operating lease
for new corporate office space in South Florida. No commitment has been made
as of the current date.


<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;At December&nbsp;31, 2003, debt as a percent of total capitalization was 36.5%,
as compared to 47.0% at December&nbsp;31, 2002. The improvement was a result of a
$57.2&nbsp;million decrease in debt and an increase in shareholder&#146;s equity of $18.5
million as a result of our earnings for the year.


<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Applica&#146;s ability to make scheduled payments of principal of, or to pay
the interest on, or to refinance, its indebtedness, or to fund planned capital
expenditures, product research and development expenses and marketing expenses
will depend on its future performance, which, to a certain extent, is subject
to general economic, financial, competitive, legislative, regulatory, and
international and United States domestic political factors and other factors
that are beyond its control. Based upon the current level of operations and
anticipated margin improvements and revenue growth, we believe that cash flow
from operations and available cash, together with available borrowings under
its credit facility and other facilities, will be adequate to meet our future
liquidity needs for at least the next several years. However, business may not
generate sufficient cash flow from operations, our anticipated revenue growth
and operating improvements may not be realized and future borrowings may not be
available under the credit

<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Additional information regarding our financial commitments as of December
31, 2003 is provided in Note J to the Consolidated Financial Statements
included in Schedule&nbsp;I to this Annual Report on Form 10-K. For information
regarding related party transactions, see Note N to the Consolidated Financial
Statements included in Schedule&nbsp;I to this Annual Report on Form 10-K.


<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Applica is also involved in certain ongoing litigation. See Item&nbsp;3. Legal
Proceedings above.


<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt"><B>Effect of Inflation</B>



<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Our results of operations for the periods discussed have not been
significantly affected by inflation.


<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt"><B>Currency Matters</B>



<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;While we transact business predominantly in U.S. dollars and most of our
revenues are collected in U.S. dollars, a substantial portion of our costs,
such as payroll, rent and indirect operational costs, are denominated in other
currencies, such as Chinese renminbi, Hong Kong dollars and Mexican pesos. In
addition, while a small
portion of our revenues are collected in foreign currencies, such as
Canadian dollars, Argentine pesos, Colombian pesos, Chilean pesos and
Venezuelan bolivars, a significant portion of the related cost of goods sold
are denominated in U.S. dollars. Changes in the relation of these and other
currencies to the U.S. dollar will affect our cost of goods sold and operating
margins and could result in exchange losses. The impact of future exchange rate
fluctuations on our results of operations cannot be accurately predicted. The
dollar foreign exchange rates may not be stable in the future and fluctuations
in financial markets may have a material adverse effect on our business,
financial condition and results of operations.


<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;From time to time, Applica uses forward exchange and option contracts to
reduce fluctuations in foreign currency cash flows related to third party raw
materials and other operating purchases, as well as trade receivables. The
purpose of Applica&#146;s foreign currency management activity is to reduce the risk
that anticipated cash flows and earnings from foreign currency denominated
transactions may be affected by changes in exchange rates.


<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Currently, there is renewed activity within the Chinese government
regarding the relationship between the renminbi, the Hong Kong dollar and the
U.S. dollar. If these currencies are allowed to float freely, it could result
in significant fluctuations in our product costs, which would have a material
impact on our business.


<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;For additional information on exchange rate sensitivity, see Item&nbsp;7A.

<P align="center" style="font-size: 10pt"><B>New Accounting Pronouncements</B>



<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;In December&nbsp;2002, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (&#147;FASB&#148;) issued
Statement No.&nbsp;148, &#147;Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation-Transition and
Disclosure&#148; (&#147;SFAS No.&nbsp;148&#148;). SFAS No.&nbsp;148 amends SFAS Statement No.&nbsp;123,
&#147;Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation&#148;, to provide alternative methods of
transition for an entity that voluntarily changes to the fair value based
method of accounting for stock-based employee compensation. Additionally,
SFAS No.&nbsp;148 requires prominent disclosures about the effects on reported net
income of an entity&#146;s accounting policy decisions with respect to stock-based
employee compensation. SFAS No.&nbsp;148 also amends APB Opinion No.&nbsp;28, &#147;Interim
Financial Reporting,&#148; to require disclosures about such effects in interim
financial information. Applica currently accounts for its stock-based
compensation awards to employees and directors under the accounting prescribed
by Accounting Principles Board Opinion No.&nbsp;25 and provides the disclosures
required by SFAS No.&nbsp;123. Applica currently intends to continue to account for
its stock-based compensation awards to employees and directors under the
accounting prescribed by Accounting Principles Board Opinion No.&nbsp;25. Applica
adopted the additional disclosure provisions of SFAS No.&nbsp;148 during the first
quarter of 2003.


<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;In December&nbsp;2002, the FASB issued Interpretation 45 (FIN 45),
&#147;Guarantor&#146;s Accounting and Disclosure Requirements for Guarantees, Including
Indirect Guarantees of Indebtedness of Others.&#148; For a guarantee subject to
FASB Interpretation 45, a guarantor is required to:

liquidated and allow the guarantor to recover all or a portion of its
payments in the event guarantee payments are required.</TD>

</TABLE>


<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The disclosure requirement of this Interpretation is effective for
financial statements for fiscal years ending after December&nbsp;15, 2002 and did
not have a material effect on Applica financial statements. The initial
recognition and measurement provision are effective prospectively for
guarantees issued or modified on or after January&nbsp;1, 2003, which did not have a
material effect on Applica&#146;s financial statements.


<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;In January&nbsp;2003, the FASB issued Interpretation No.&nbsp;46, &#147;Consolidation of
Variable Interest Entities (and Interpretation of ARB No.&nbsp;51)&#148; (&#147;FIN 46&#148;). FIN
46 addresses consolidation by business enterprises of certain variable interest
entities, commonly referred to as special purpose entities. The adoption of
FIN 46 did not have a material effect on Applica&#146;s financial statement
presentation or disclosure.


<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;In April&nbsp;2003, the FASB issued SFAS No.&nbsp;149, &#147;Amendment of Statement No.
133 on Derivative Instruments with Characteristics of both Liabilities and
Equity.&#148; This statement amends and clarifies accounting for derivatives
instruments, including certain derivative instruments embedded in other
contracts, and for hedging activities under SFAS No.&nbsp;133. This statement is
effective for contracts entered into or modified after June&nbsp;30, 2003, except as
for provisions that relate to SFAS No.&nbsp;133 implementation issues that have been
effective for fiscal quarters that began prior to June&nbsp;15, 2003, which should
continue to be applied in accordance with their respective dates. The adoption
of SFAS No.&nbsp;149 did not have a material impact on Applica&#146;s financial
condition, results of operations, and cash flows.


<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;In May&nbsp;2003, the FASB issued SFAS 150, &#147;Accounting for Certain Financial
Instruments with Characteristics of Both Liabilities and Equity.&#148; This
Statement establishes standards for classifying and measuring certain financial
instruments that embody obligations of the issuer and have characteristics of
both liabilities and equity. The adoption of SFAS No.&nbsp;150 will not have a
material impact on Applica&#146;s financial condition, results of operations, and
cash flows.


<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;In March&nbsp;2003, the SEC issued Regulation&nbsp;G, &#147;Conditions for Use of
Non-GAAP Financial Measures.&#148; As defined in Regulation&nbsp;G, a non-GAAP financial
measure is a numerical measure of a company&#146;s historical or future performance,
financial position, or cash flow that excludes or includes amounts or
adjustments that are included or excluded in the most directly comparable
measure calculated in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles
(GAAP). Companies that present non-GAAP financial measures must disclose a

<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Applica is exposed to the impact of interest rate changes and foreign
currency fluctuations. In the normal course of business, we employ
established policies and procedures to manage our exposure to changes in
interest rates and foreign currencies using a variety of financial instruments.


<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<B><I>Interest Rate Sensitivity</I></B>. Our primary market risk exposure with respect
to interest rates is changes in short- and long-term interest rates in the
United States. Certain of Applica&#146;s debt arrangements represent floating rate
debt and accordingly, we are subject to interest rate risk. Applica uses
interest rate risk management contracts to manage our fixed-to-floating ratio,
which may reduce the impact of changes in interest rates on our floating rate
debt. Our objectives in managing exposure to interest rate changes are to
limit the impact of interest rate changes on earnings and cash flows and to
lower overall borrowing costs. To achieve these objectives, we primarily use
interest rate swaps to manage net exposure to interest rate changes related to
Applica&#146;s portfolio of borrowings. Applica maintains fixed rate debt as a
percentage of its net debt between a minimum and maximum percentage, which is
set by policy.


<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The tables below provides information regarding Applica&#146;s derivative
financial instruments and other financial instruments that are sensitive to
changes in interest rates, including interest rate swaps and debt obligations.
For debt obligations, the table presents principal cash flows and related
weighted average interest rates by expected maturity dates. For interest rate
swaps, the table presents notional amounts and weighted average interest rates
by contractual maturity dates. Notional amounts are used to calculate the
contractual payments expected to be exchanged under the contract. Weighted
average variable rates are based on implied forward rates in the yield curve at
the reporting date.

dollar/Chinese renminbi, U.S. dollar/Hong Kong dollar and U.S. dollar/Canadian
dollar exchange rates. In addition, we also have exposure to the Argentinean
peso, Colombian peso, Chilean peso and Venezuelan bolivar. Certain forecasted

<P align="left" style="margin-left: 0%; text-indent: 0%; margin-right: 0%; font-size: 10pt">currency forwards and options as cash flow hedges of foreign currency
forecasted transactions related to the purchase of third party raw materials
and other operating expenses. Our objective in managing exposure to foreign
currency fluctuations is to reduce earnings and cash flow volatility in order
to allow management to focus on core business issues and challenges.
Accordingly, we enter into various contracts that change in value as foreign
exchange rates change to protect the value of our existing foreign currency
assets, liabilities, commitments and forecasted foreign currency revenues and
expenses. Applica uses option strategies and forward contracts that provide for
the sale and/or purchase of foreign currencies to hedge probable, but not
firmly committed, expenditures. The principal currencies hedged are the Mexican
peso, Chinese renminbi, Hong Kong dollar and Canadian dollar. By policy,
Applica maintains hedge coverage between minimum and maximum percentages of its
forecasted foreign exchange exposures for periods not to exceed eighteen
months. The gains and losses on these contracts offset changes in the value of
the related exposures.


<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;As discussed above, we are exposed to market risks arising from changes in
foreign exchange rates. As of December&nbsp;31, 2003, Applica hedged a portion of
its 2004 estimated foreign currency transactions using forward exchange
contracts and purchased options. We use a sensitivity model to determine a
potential change in the fair value of our foreign exchange financial
instruments. The sensitivity model estimates the change in fair value based
upon a favorable and unfavorable movement of 10% in the respective spot rate.
The sensitivity model is a risk analysis tool and does not purport to represent
actual losses or gains in fair value that will be incurred by Applica. It
should also be noted that the change in value represents the estimated change
in the fair market value of the derivative. Because the derivatives hedge an
underlying exposure, there would be a comparable and opposite change in value
of the underlying exposure. The estimated potential change in fair value,
calculated using the sensitivity model, is as follows:

<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<B><I>Changes in Internal Controls</I></B>. Applica is committed to continuously improving
its internal controls and financial reporting. During 2003, Applica retained a
consulting firm with experience in internal controls to assist management and
the Audit Committee in reviewing Applica&#146;s current internal controls structure
with a view towards meeting the formalized requirements of Section&nbsp;404 of the
Sarbanes-Oxley Act. As a result of such review and the evaluation discussed
above, management has determined that certain matters could be considered
deficiencies in its internal control systems, including the following:

    <TD>Many of the controls that are currently in place,

    <TD>Our legacy information technology systems are not fully

</TR>

</TABLE>


<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Additionally, our independent auditors, Grant Thornton LLP, have advised
management and the Audit Committee of a failure to perform timely reviews and
evaluations of certain account balances. Grant Thornton believes this
represents a significant deficiency (reportable condition), which, in its
judgment, represents an internal control deficiency that could lead to
misstatements in our financial statements that are other than inconsequential.


<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;These potential deficiencies have been discussed in detail among
management, the Audit Committee and Grant Thornton. Management has assigned
the highest priority to correction of these matters and is committed to
addressing them and resolving them fully. We are devoting significant
resources, both internal and external, to update, formalize and standardize our
internal controls. Additionally, we are in the process of implementing a new
enterprise resource planning system that includes financial applications. As a
result of the steps we have taken and will continue to take to improve our
systems and controls, changes in internal controls were undertaken in the
fourth quarter of 2003 and will be ongoing during 2004. Despite the issues
identified above, management believes that our financial statements and related
disclosures as filed to date present fairly, in all material respects, our
financial condition and results of operations for the respective periods.




<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<B><I>Limitations on the Effectiveness of Controls</I></B><B>. </B>Applica&#146;s management,
including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, does not
expect that our disclosure or internal controls will prevent all errors or
fraud. A control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide
only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control
system are met. Further, the design of a control system must reflect the fact
that there are resource constraints, and the benefits of controls must be
considered relative to their costs. Because of the inherent limitations in a
cost-effective control system, misstatements due to error or fraud may occur
and not be detected.

<B>Applica Incorporated</B>



<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Applica
Incorporated and subsidiaries (the &#147;Company&#148;) as of December&nbsp;31, 2003 and 2002,
and the related consolidated statements of operations, shareholders&#146; equity and
cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December&nbsp;31, 2003.
These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company&#146;s management.
Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements and
financial statement schedule based on our audits.


<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;We conducted our audits in accordance with auditing standards generally
accepted in the United States of America. Those standards require that we plan
and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the
financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes
examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in
the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting
principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as
evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our
audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.


<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly,
in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of Applica
Incorporated and subsidiaries as of December&nbsp;31, 2003 and 2002, and the
consolidated results of their operations and their consolidated cash flows for
each of the three years in the period ended December&nbsp;31, 2003, in conformity
with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.


<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;As discussed in Note D to the consolidated financial statements, the
Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standard 142 &#147;Goodwill and
Other Intangible Assets&#148; on January&nbsp;1, 2002.


<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;We have also audited Schedule&nbsp;II of Applica Incorporated and subsidiaries
for each of the three years in the period ended December&nbsp;31, 2003. In our
opinion, this schedule, when considered in relation to the basic consolidated
financial statements taken as a whole, presents fairly, in all material
respects, the information therein.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS</B>



<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt"><B>NOTE A - SUMMARY OF ACCOUNTING POLICIES</B>



<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<B>Overview</B>


<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Applica Incorporated and its subsidiaries (collectively, the &#147;Company&#148; or
&#147;Applica&#148;) are marketers, distributors and manufacturers of a broad range of
branded and private-label small electric consumer goods. Applica markets,
distributes and manufactures kitchen products, home products, pest control
products, pet care products and personal care products. Applica markets
products under licensed brand names, such as Black &#038; Decker&#174;, its own brand
names, such as Windmere&#174;, LitterMaid&#174; and Applica&#174;, and other private-label
brand names. Applica&#146;s customers include mass merchandisers, specialty
retailers and appliance distributors primarily in North America, Latin America
and the Caribbean.


<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Applica operates manufacturing facilities in Mexico and in China. In 2003
and 2002, approximately 63% and 76%, respectively, of the products sold by
Applica were manufactured in such facilities. In addition, Applica
manufactures products for other consumer products companies.


<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Applica applied the provisions of SFAS 142, &#147;Goodwill and Other Intangible
Assets&#148;, beginning on January&nbsp;1, 2002. SFAS 142 established new accounting and
reporting requirements for goodwill and other intangible assets. Applica did
not adopt any other accounting policies during 2003 or 2002.


<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The preparation of Applica&#146;s financial statements in conformity with
accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America
requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported
amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and
revenues and expenses during the period. Future events and their effects
cannot be determined with absolute certainty; therefore, the determination of
estimates requires the exercise of judgment. Actual results inevitably will
differ from those estimates, and such differences may be material to the
financial statements. Management continually evaluates its estimates and
assumptions, which are based on historical experience and other factors that
are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances.


<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Management believes that the following may involve a higher degree of
judgment or complexity:


<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<B><I>Collectibility of Accounts Receivable</I></B>. Applica&#146;s allowance for doubtful
accounts is based on management&#146;s estimates of the creditworthiness of its
customers, current economic conditions and historical information, and, in the
opinion of management, is believed to be an amount sufficient to respond to
normal business conditions. Management sets specific allowances for customers
in bankruptcy and other allowances for the remaining customers based upon
historical collection experience. Should business conditions deteriorate or
any major customer default on its obligations to Applica, this allowance may
need to be significantly increased, which would have a negative impact upon
Applica&#146;s operations. Applica reviews its accounts receivable
aging on a regular basis to determine if any of the receivables are
past due. Applica writes off all uncollectible trade receivables
against its allowance for doubtful accounts.


<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<B><I>Inventory Allowances</I></B>. Applica establishes an allowance based on historical
experience and specific allowances when it is apparent that the expected
realizable value of an inventory item falls below its original cost. A charge
to operations results when the estimated net realizable value of inventory
items declines below cost. Management regularly reviews Applica&#146;s investment in
inventories for declines in value.


<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<B><I>Income Taxes</I></B>. Significant management judgment is required in developing
Applica&#146;s provision for income taxes, including the determination of foreign
tax liabilities, deferred tax assets and liabilities and any valuation
allowances that might be required to be applied against the deferred tax
assets. At December&nbsp;31, 2003 and 2002, Applica had deferred tax assets in
excess of deferred tax liabilities of $68.7&nbsp;million and $83.2&nbsp;million,
respectively. Applica determined that it was more likely than not that $61.3
million and $73.0&nbsp;million of such assets will be realized, resulting in a
valuation allowance of $7.4&nbsp;million and $10.2&nbsp;million as of December&nbsp;31, 2003
and 2002, respectively. Applica evaluates its ability to realize its deferred
tax assets on a quarterly basis and adjusts the amount of its valuation
allowance, if necessary. Applica operates within multiple taxing jurisdictions
and is subject to audit in those jurisdictions. Because of the complex issues
involved, any claims can require an extended period to resolve.

<P align="center" style="font-size: 10pt"><B>Applica Incorporated and Subsidiaries<BR>
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - CONTINUED</B>



<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<B><I>Goodwill</I></B>. On an annual basis, management assesses the composition of
Applica&#146;s assets and liabilities, as well as the events that have occurred and
the circumstances that have changed since the most recent fair value
determination. If events occur or circumstances change that would more likely
than not reduce the fair value of goodwill below its carrying amount, goodwill
will be tested for impairment. Applica selected
June&nbsp;30<SUP>th</SUP> as the annual
impairment test date and will recognize an impairment loss if the carrying
value of the asset exceeds the fair value determination as of
June&nbsp;30<SUP>th</SUP> of each
year.

<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<B><I>Long-Lived Assets</I></B>. Applica reviews long-lived assets and certain
identifiable intangibles held and used for possible impairment whenever events
or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may
not be recoverable. In evaluating the fair value and future benefits of its
intangible assets, management performs an analysis of the anticipated
undiscounted future net cash flows of the individual assets over the remaining
amortization period. Applica recognizes an impairment loss if the carrying
value of the asset exceeds the expected future cash flows.

<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<B><I>Accruals for Product Liability Claims and Litigation</I></B>. Applica is subject
to various legal proceedings, product liability claims and other claims in the
ordinary course of its business. Management estimates the amount of ultimate
liability, if any, with respect to such matters in excess of applicable
insurance coverage based on historical claims experience and current claim
amounts, as well as other available facts and circumstances. As the outcome of
litigation is difficult to predict and significant estimates are made with
regard to future events, significant changes from estimated amounts could
occur.


<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<B><I>Other Estimates</I></B>. During the years, Applica has made significant estimates
in connection with specific events affecting its expectations. These have
included accruals relating to the consolidation of its operations, plant
closings, reduction in employees and product recalls. Estimates have also been required with respect to Applica&#146;s investment in a joint
venture investment partnership, Anasazi Partners, L.P. (For additional
information, see Note B.) Applica makes a number of other estimates in the
ordinary course of business relating to sales returns and allowances, warranty
accruals, and accruals for promotional incentives. Historically, past changes
to these estimates have not had a material impact on our financial condition
but have significantly affected operations from time to time. However,
circumstances could change which may alter future expectations.


<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<B>Principles of Consolidation</B>


<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Applica
Incorporated and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. Generally, Applica uses the
equity method of accounting for its investments. Intercompany balances and

<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;For subsidiaries where the local currency is the functional currency,
assets and liabilities are translated into United States dollars at the
exchange rate in effect at the end of the year. Revenues and expenses of these
subsidiaries are translated at the average exchange rate during the year. The
aggregate effect of translating the financial statements of these foreign
subsidiaries is included in a separate component of shareholders&#146; equity
entitled &#147;Accumulated Other Comprehensive Earnings (Loss).&#148; For countries
where business is transacted predominantly in U.S. dollars or is deemed to be
hyper-inflationary, the U.S. dollar is the functional currency and monetary
balance sheet accounts are translated at the exchange rate in effect at the end
of the year and non-monetary balance sheet accounts are translated at
historical exchange rates. Income and expense accounts are translated at the
average exchange rates in effect during the year. Adjustments resulting from
the translation of these entities are included in operations. During 2003,
2002 and 2001, net foreign translation losses included in Applica&#146;s statement
of operations were $3.0&nbsp;million, $1.9&nbsp;million and $0.9&nbsp;million, respectively.

<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Applica considers all highly liquid investments with maturities of three
months or less at the time of purchase to be cash equivalents. Cash balances
at December&nbsp;31, 2003 and 2002 include approximately $11.2&nbsp;million and $3.6
million, respectively, held in foreign banks by Applica&#146;s Hong Kong, Canadian
and Latin American subsidiaries.


<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<B>Comprehensive Earnings</B>


<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Comprehensive earnings (loss)&nbsp;is defined as the change in equity of a
business enterprise during a period from transactions and other events and
circumstances from non-owner sources, including foreign currency translation
adjustments and unrealized gains and losses on derivatives designated as cash
flow hedges. Applica presents accumulated other comprehensive earnings (loss)
net of taxes in its consolidated statement of shareholders&#146; equity. Tax expenses (benefit) related to comprehensive
 earning adjustments were approximately $1.4&nbsp;million, ($1.6&nbsp;million) and $2.4&nbsp;million in 2003, 2002
 and 2001, respectively.

<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;At
December&nbsp;31, 2003, Applica had four active stock-based compensation
plans, which are described more fully in Note K &#150; Shareholders&#146; Equity.
Applica accounts for employee stock-based compensation using the intrinsic
value method. Accordingly, compensation cost for stock options issued is
measured as the excess, if any, of the fair value of Applica&#146;s common stock at
the date of grant over the exercise price of the options. Applica&#146;s net
earnings (loss)&nbsp;and earnings (loss)&nbsp;per share would have been changed to the
pro forma amounts indicated below had compensation cost for the stock option
plans and non-qualified options issued to employees been determined based on
the fair value of the options at the grant dates consistent with the method of
SFAS 123 &#147;Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation&#148;:

<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The above pro forma disclosures may not be representative of the effects

<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;In accordance with the requirements of SFAS 123, the fair value of each
option grant was estimated on the date of grant using a binomial option-pricing
model with the following weighted-average assumptions used for grants in 2003,
2002 and 2001, respectively: no dividend yield for all years; expected
volatility ranging from 64.1% to 82.7% for 2003, 93.3% to 96.5% for 2002 and
82.9% to 86.0% for 2001; risk-free interest rates of 3% in 2003 and 5.3% in
2002 and 2001; and expected holding periods of four years in 2003, 2002 and
2001.

<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Prior to January&nbsp;1, 2002, intangible assets, consisting primarily of
goodwill, were being amortized on a straight line basis over periods ranging
from 2.5 to 40&nbsp;years. In June&nbsp;2001, the Financial Accounting Standards Board
issued SFAS 142, &#147;Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets&#148;, which established new
accounting and reporting requirements for goodwill and other intangible assets.
The new standard requires that all intangible assets acquired that are
obtained through contractual or legal right, or are capable of being separately
sold, transferred, licensed, rented or exchanged must be recognized as an asset
apart from goodwill. Goodwill and intangibles with indefinite
lives are no longer amortized, but are subject to an annual assessment for
impairment by applying a fair value based test.

<P align="center" style="font-size: 10pt"><B>Applica Incorporated and Subsidiaries<BR>
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - CONTINUED</B>



<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Applica applied the provisions of SFAS 142 beginning on January&nbsp;1, 2002
and performed a transitional fair valued based impairment test. Based on the
initial impairment test, Applica recognized a non-cash adjustment of $121.3
million ($78.8&nbsp;million, net of tax) in the first quarter of 2002 to reduce the
carrying value of goodwill to its implied fair value, which was estimated using
a combination of market-multiples, comparable transactions and discounted cash
flow methodologies. Under SFAS 142, the impairment adjustment was reflected as
a cumulative effect of change in accounting principle in the first quarter of
2002.


<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;As of June&nbsp;30, 2003, Applica performed its annual fair value assessment
and determined that no additional impairment charge was necessary. In
addition, due to lower than expected sales of certain core categories of Black
&#038; Decker&#174; branded products in the third and fourth quarters of 2003, Applica
performed an additional fair value assessment as of December&nbsp;31, 2003 and no
impairment was noted.


<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<B>Other Intangible Assets</B>


<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;In June&nbsp;1998, Applica acquired the household products group of The Black &#038;
Decker Corporation for $319.8&nbsp;million in cash and assumed certain related
liabilities. As part of the acquisition, Applica acquired the right to use the
Black &#038; Decker&#174; trademark in four product categories: garment care, cooking,
food preparation and beverage. Applica has the right to sell products under
this license agreement in North America, Central America, and South America,
excluding Brazil. The excess purchase price consideration over the estimated
fair value of the acquired net assets was $228.8&nbsp;million, of which $47.2
million was allocated to an intangible asset related to the Black &#038; Decker&#174;
trademark and the remaining $181.6&nbsp;million was allocated to goodwill. The $47.2
million assigned to the fair value of the intangible asset was based on a
valuation performed by Applica as of June&nbsp;1998. For the first five years
(through June&nbsp;30, 2003), the license was on a royalty free basis for the core
product categories. Mutually agreed upon renewals would be at the stated
royalty rate, along with specified minimum royalty payments. The agreement
provided for an initial period of five years, with a subsequent five-year
extended term and up to three additional five-year extensions.


<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Beginning in 2002, sales of Black &#038; Decker&#174; branded products under the
original four product categories started to decrease significantly and
continued through December&nbsp;31, 2003. Sales of Black &#038; Decker&#174; branded products
under the original four product categories for 2003, 2002, and 2001 were $399
million, $429&nbsp;million and $446&nbsp;million, respectively. As a result of the
continuation of the lower sales of Black &#038; Decker&#174; branded products in the four
core product categories in the third and fourth quarter of 2003 (which are
Applica&#146;s busiest quarters due to the seasonality of our business), management
determined that a triggering event had occurred in accordance with SFAS 144,
&#147;Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets&#148;. Accordingly,
Applica performed a benefit analysis by calculating the expected effective
royalty rate in 2004 through 2006, taking into account the minimum royalties as
well as the projected sales of Black &#038; Decker&#174; branded products under the
original four categories. Based on the benefit analysis, management believes
that there is no remaining value in the initial intangible asset as of December
31, 2003. Accordingly, Applica recorded an impairment charge of approximately
$7.2&nbsp;million to write off the unamortized book value of the asset. The
impairment charge is reflected in the fourth quarter of 2003 because the
decreased fourth quarter sales provided further confirmation of an impairment.
Pursuant to the requirements of SFAS 144 and as a result of Applica&#146;s benefit
analysis, the impairment charge is classified as a component of income from
operations.


<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Other intangible assets were amortized on a straight-line basis over
periods ranging from two to 15&nbsp;years. Other intangible assets subject to
amortization were $9.0&nbsp;million and $55.2&nbsp;million at December&nbsp;31, 2003 and 2002,
respectively, and the related accumulated amortization was $2.8&nbsp;million and
$34.3&nbsp;million, respectively.


<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<B>Long-Lived Assets</B>


<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Long-lived assets and certain identifiable intangible assets to be held
and used are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in
circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of such assets may not be
recoverable. Determination of recoverability is based on an estimate of
undiscounted future cash flows resulting from the use of such asset and
eventual disposition. Measurement of an impairment loss for long-lived assets
and
certain identifiable intangible assets that management expects to hold and
use is based on the fair value of the asset. Long-lived assets and certain
identifiable intangible assets to be disposed of are reported at the lower of
carrying amount or fair value less costs to sell.

<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<B>Risk Management Contracts</B>


<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Applica designates its derivatives based upon criteria established by SFAS
133, &#147;Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities&#148; and later
amended by SFAS 149, &#147;Amendment of Statement 133 on Derivative Instruments and
Hedging Activities&#148;. For a derivative designated as a fair value hedge, the
gain or loss is recognized in earnings in the period of change together with
the offsetting loss or gain on the hedged item attributed to the risk being
hedged. For a derivative designated as a cash flow hedge, the effective portion
of the derivative&#146;s gain or loss is initially reported as a component of
accumulated other comprehensive earnings (loss)&nbsp;and subsequently reclassified
into earnings when the hedged exposure affects earnings. The ineffective
portion of the gain or loss is reported in earnings immediately. For
derivatives that do not meet the criteria for hedge accounting, the gain or
loss is recognized in earnings immediately.


<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Applica uses derivatives to manage exposures to foreign currency and
interest rate risk. Applica&#146;s objectives for holding derivatives are to
decrease the volatility of earnings and cash flows associated with changes in
foreign currency and interest rates.


<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;During 2003 and 2002, there were no significant gains or losses recognized
in earnings for hedge ineffectiveness. Applica did not discontinue any hedges
during 2003 or 2002 because it was probable that the original forecasted
transaction would not occur.


<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;In the normal course of business, Applica uses a variety of financial
instruments to manage its exposure to fluctuations in interest and foreign
currency exchange rates, including interest rate and currency swap agreements,
forward and option contracts, and interest rate caps. Applica designates and
assigns the financial instruments as hedges of forecasted transactions,
specific assets, or specific liabilities. When hedged assets or liabilities
are sold or extinguished or the forecasted transactions being hedged are no
longer expected to occur, Applica recognizes the gain or loss on the designated
hedging financial instrument.


<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;For derivatives that meet the criteria for hedge accounting, option
premiums and unrealized losses on forward contracts and the accrued
differential for interest rate and currency swaps to be received under the
agreements are recorded in the balance sheet as other comprehensive earnings
(loss). Unrealized gains on forward and option contracts and the accrued
differential for interest rate swaps to be paid under the agreements are
included in other liabilities. Realized gains and losses from hedges are
classified in the income statement consistent with the accounting treatment of
the item being hedged. Applica accrues the differential for interest rate
swaps to be paid or received under the agreements as interest rates shift as
adjustments to net interest expense over the lives of the swaps. Gains and
losses on the termination of effective swap agreements for which the hedged
transaction is still in place and expected to occur, prior to their original
maturity, are deferred and amortized to net interest expense over the remaining
term of the underlying hedged transactions.


<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<B>Income Taxes</B>


<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Deferred taxes have been provided on temporary differences in reporting
transactions for financial accounting and tax purposes. Applica provides a
valuation allowance against its deferred tax assets when it believes that it is
more likely than not that the asset will not be realized.


<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Commencing in 2001, the earnings of certain foreign entities were taxed
based on U.S. statutory rates, notwithstanding the repatriation of earnings.
Applica did not repatriate any income from its foreign operations in 2003 as
compared to the repatriation of approximately $20.7&nbsp;million and $31.4&nbsp;million
from its foreign operations in 2002 and 2001, respectively. However, Applica
provided taxes on certain 2003 foreign earnings at U.S. based rates that
Applica does not intend to permanently reinvest. No provision was made for
U.S. taxes on the remaining accumulated undistributed earnings of Applica&#146;s
foreign subsidiaries of approximately $156.0&nbsp;million at December&nbsp;31, 2003 and
$148.0&nbsp;million at December&nbsp;31, 2002, as it is anticipated that such earnings
would be reinvested in their respective operations or in other foreign
operations. Applica does not intend in the foreseeable future to
permanently reinvest current and future earnings of certain of its foreign
subsidiaries outside of the United States, and will provide taxes on such
earnings at the U.S. statutory rates.

<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Advertising costs are expensed as incurred and are included in selling,
general and administrative expenses. Total advertising costs for the years
ended December&nbsp;31, 2003, 2002 and 2001 were approximately $31.4&nbsp;million, $34.2
million and $23.9&nbsp;million, respectively.

<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Legal costs are expensed as incurred and are included in selling, general
and administrative expenses. In 2003, Applica expensed approximately $8.1
million related to possible legal contingencies. The amounts incurred in 2002
and 2001 were $2.5&nbsp;million and $1.6&nbsp;million, respectively.


<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<B>Earnings (Loss) Per Share</B>


<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Basic net earnings (loss)&nbsp;per share equals net earnings (loss)&nbsp;divided by
the weighted average shares outstanding during the year. The computation of
diluted net earnings (loss)&nbsp;per share includes the dilutive effect of common
stock equivalents in the weighted average shares outstanding. The
reconciliation between the computations is as follows:

equivalents relating to stock options of 424,703 for the year ended December&nbsp;31, 2003
and 403,275 for the year ended December&nbsp;31, 2002. Common stock
equivalents have been excluded from the diluted per share calculations in 2001,
as Applica incurred a net loss before cumulative effect of change in accounting
principle in that year and their inclusion would have been anti-dilutive.
Potential common stock equivalents at December&nbsp;31, 2003 and 2002 were 1,494,685

in the fourth quarter of 2003, management determined the accrual was no longer
required and the remaining accrual of $4.1&nbsp;million was reversed and was
included as a reduction of cost of sales. In addition Applica incurred an
additional charge of $4.7&nbsp;million related to a lease at the
Shelton, Connecticut facility, which is reflected as a component of selling,
general and administrative expenses.


<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<B>2002.&nbsp;</B>In February&nbsp;2002, Applica Consumer Products, Inc., in cooperation
with the Consumer Products Safety Commission, voluntarily recalled
approximately 2.1&nbsp;million Black &#038; Decker&#174; T1200 and T1400 toasters. Applica&#146;s
Canadian operating subsidiary, Applica Canada Corporation, also recalled
approximately 180,000 of these toasters in Canada. In 2001, Applica took a
charge to cost of sales of $13.4&nbsp;million relating to the estimated expenses of
such recalls. As of December&nbsp;31, 2003 and 2002, $9.3&nbsp;million and $8.7&nbsp;million
had been charged against the accrual, respectively.


<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;In 2002, Applica incurred an additional $10.6&nbsp;million in charges relating

included $6.8&nbsp;million relating to Applica&#146;s decision to consolidate its
Shelton, Connecticut office with the headquarters located in Miami Lakes,
Florida, as well as certain back-office and supply chain functions in Canada
and Latin America. This facilities consolidation resulted in a reduction of
approximately 70 employees worldwide. In addition, $5.2&nbsp;million of such
charges related to the write-off of fees and expenses of Applica&#146;s terminated
credit facility as Applica executed a new four-year senior secured revolving

<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;In September&nbsp;2002, Applica and Salton, Inc. entered into a settlement
agreement in the matter Salton, Inc. v Windmere-Durable Holdings, Inc. and
Windmere Corporation, which was filed in the United States District Court,
Northern District of Illinois in January&nbsp;2001. In connection with such
settlement, Applica reported a gain of $557,000 in the third quarter of 2002.


<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<B>Recent Accounting Pronouncements</B>


<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;In December&nbsp;2002, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (&#147;FASB&#148;) issued
Statement No.&nbsp;148, &#147;Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation-Transition and
Disclosure&#148; (&#147;SFAS No.&nbsp;148&#148;). SFAS No.&nbsp;148 amends SFAS Statement No.&nbsp;123,
&#147;Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation&#148;, to provide alternative methods of
transition for an entity that voluntarily changes to the fair value based
method of accounting for stock-based employee compensation. Additionally,
SFAS No.&nbsp;148 requires prominent disclosures about the effects on reported net
income of an entity&#146;s accounting policy decisions with respect to stock-based
employee compensation. SFAS No.&nbsp;148 also amends APB Opinion No.&nbsp;28, &#147;Interim
Financial Reporting,&#148; to require disclosures about such effects in interim
financial information. Applica currently accounts for its stock-based
compensation awards to employees and directors under the accounting prescribed
by Accounting Principles Board Opinion No.&nbsp;25 (&#147;APB No.&nbsp;25&#148;) and provides the
disclosures required by SFAS No.&nbsp;123, as amended by SFAS No.&nbsp;148. Applica
currently intends to continue to account for its stock-based compensation
awards to employees and directors under the accounting prescribed by APB No.
25.


<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;In December&nbsp;2002, the FASB issued Interpretation 45 (FIN 45), &#147;Guarantor&#146;s
Accounting and Disclosure Requirements for Guarantees, Including Indirect
Guarantees of Indebtedness of Others&#148;. For a guarantee subject to FASB
Interpretation 45, a guarantor is required to:

<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The disclosure requirement of this Interpretation is effective for
financial statements for fiscal years ending after December&nbsp;15, 2002 and did
not have a material effect on Applica financial statements. The initial
recognition and measurement provision are effective prospectively for
guarantees issued or modified on or after January&nbsp;1, 2003, which did not have a
material effect on Applica&#146;s financial statements.


<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;In January&nbsp;2003, the FASB issued Interpretation No.&nbsp;46, &#147;Consolidation of
Variable Interest Entities (an Interpretation of ARB No.&nbsp;51)&#148; (&#147;FIN 46&#148;). FIN
46 addresses consolidation by business enterprises of certain variable interest
entities, commonly referred to as special purpose entities. The adoption of
FIN 46 did not have a material effect on Applica&#146;s financial statement
presentation or disclosure.


<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;In April&nbsp;2003, the FASB issued SFAS No.&nbsp;149, &#147;Amendment of Statement No.
133 on Derivative Instruments with Characteristics of both Liabilities and
Equity.&#148; This statement amends and clarifies accounting for derivatives
instruments, including certain derivative instruments embedded in other
contracts, and for hedging activities under SFAS No.&nbsp;133. This statement is
effective for contracts entered into or modified after June&nbsp;30, 2003, except as
for provisions that relate to SFAS No.&nbsp;133 implementation issues that have been
effective for fiscal quarters that began prior to June&nbsp;15, 2003, which should
continue to be applied in accordance with their respective dates. The adoption
of SFAS No.&nbsp;149 did not have a material impact on Applica&#146;s financial
condition, results of operations, and cash flows.


<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;In May&nbsp;2003, the FASB issued SFAS 150, &#147;Accounting for Certain Financial
Instruments with Characteristics of Both Liabilities and Equity&#148;. This
Statement establishes standards for classifying and measuring certain financial
instruments that embody obligations of the issuer and have characteristics of
both liabilities and equity. The adoption of SFAS No.&nbsp;150 will not have a
material impact on Applica&#146;s financial condition, results of operations, and
cash flows.


<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt"><B>NOTE B - INVESTMENT IN
JOINT VENTURES</B>



<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Anasazi Partners, L.P. is a partnership owned 50% by Applica that invested
in public and privately owned securities. In the fourth quarter of 2002,
Anasazi Partners engaged an investment banker to pursue exit strategies for
Anasazi&#146;s equity investment in ZonePerfect Nutrition Company. In July&nbsp;2003,
ZonePerfect was sold for approximately $160.0&nbsp;million in cash, $20.0&nbsp;million of
which is being held in escrow as of December&nbsp;31, 2003. Payment of $10.0&nbsp;million dollars of the amount held in escrow is contingent on the performance of a negotiated matter and no portion
thereof has been reflected in the net earnings of Anasazi.


<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;For
the years ended December&nbsp;31, 2003, 2002 and 2001, Applica&#146;s equity in the
net earnings (loss)&nbsp;of Anasazi was $55.6&nbsp;million, zero, and
a loss of $128,000, respectively. In
August&nbsp;2003, Applica received a cash distribution from Anasazi of $51.4&nbsp;million
resulting from the sale of ZonePerfect, which reduced Applica&#146;s investment in
Anasazi. The funds held in escrow are to be released to the sellers, including
Anasazi, at 18 and 24&nbsp;months from date of closing, subject to any adjustments
to the escrowed funds for breaches of representations and warranties.
Management of Anasazi believes that Anasazi is entitled to receive
additional amounts with respect to the contingent negotiated matter.
Upon agreement with the purchaser of ZonePerfect, or release of the related
funds from escrow, Applica expects to record additional earnings of
approximately $3.7&nbsp;million.


<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;In July&nbsp;2003, the general partner of Anasazi Partners L.P. began the
process of dissolving the partnership by distributing the remaining individual
investments to the partners. At December&nbsp;31, 2003, Applica&#146;s interest in
Anasazi represents its share of the escrow funds and undistributed cash held by

<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;As
of December&nbsp;31, 2002, the difference between the carrying value
of Applica&#146;s investment in Anasazi and 50% of the net equity of
Anasazi was due to the valuation reserve that Applica applied to its
investment. As of December&nbsp;31, 2003, the difference between the
carrying value of Applica&#146;s investment in Anasazi and 50% of the
net equity of Anasazi was due to the disproportionate share of
remaining distributions from Anasazi to be received by Applica
pursuant to an agreement between Applica and the other 50% partner of
Anasazi.


<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;In 2002, the equity in net earnings (loss)&nbsp;of joint ventures was a $1.5
million loss as the result of Applica&#146;s losses related to its investment in a
Florida limited liability company. Applica has no additional commitments or
exposure related to this investment.

<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Included
in Applica&#146;s consolidated retained earnings are earnings of
approximately $54.1&nbsp;million as of December&nbsp;31, 2003 and a
loss of approximately $1.5&nbsp;million as of December&nbsp;31, 2002
related to Applica&#146;s equity in the net earnings of Anasazi.

<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt"><B>NOTE C &#150; ACQUISITIONS</B>



<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;In May&nbsp;2002, Applica Consumer Products, Inc., Applica&#146;s U.S. operating
subsidiary, purchased all of the outstanding stock of Weitech, Inc., an
electronic pest control company, for approximately $17.0&nbsp;million in cash and
the issuance of $3.0&nbsp;million of notes payable. The acquisition was accounted
for as a purchase in accordance with SFAS 141 and, accordingly, the purchase
price was allocated based on the estimated fair market values of the
identifiable assets and liabilities obtained, resulting in original goodwill of
approximately $9.6&nbsp;million. Goodwill will not be amortized in the future but
will be evaluated for impairment in accordance with the provisions of SFAS 142.
During the fourth quarter of 2002, Applica changed its preliminary allocation
of certain acquired identified intangible assets and, accordingly, reclassified
$3.7&nbsp;million from other intangible assets to goodwill resulting in goodwill of
$13.3&nbsp;million as of December&nbsp;31, 2002. This goodwill is attributable to the
general reputation of the business and the collective experience of the
management and other employees, and was calculated as follows:

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - CONTINUED</B>



<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The results of operations of Weitech, Inc. were included in the
accompanying consolidated statement of operations since the date of the
acquisition.


<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt"><B>NOTE D &#150; GOODWILL AND OTHER INTANGIBLE ASSETS</B>



<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Applica applied the provisions of SFAS 142 beginning on January&nbsp;1, 2002
and performed a transitional fair valued based impairment test. Based on the
initial impairment test, Applica recognized a non-cash adjustment of $121.3
million ($78.8&nbsp;million, or $3.31 per diluted share, net of tax) in the first
quarter of 2002 to reduce the carrying value of goodwill to its implied fair
value, which was estimated using a combination of market-multiples, comparable
transactions and discounted cash flow methodologies. Under SFAS 142, the
impairment adjustment was reflected as a cumulative effect of change in
accounting principle in the first quarter of 2002. In connection with adopting
SFAS 142, Applica also reassessed the useful lives and the classifications of
its identifiable intangible assets and determined that they continue to be
appropriate.


<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The carrying amount of goodwill is as follows:

<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;As part of Applica&#146;s June&nbsp;1998 acquisition of the household products group
of The Black &#038; Decker Corporation, $47.2&nbsp;million of the excess purchase price
was allocated to an intangible asset related to the Black &#038; Decker&#174; trademark.
As a result of the lower than expected sales of Black &#038; Decker&#174; branded
products in the third and fourth quarter of 2003, Applica reviewed whether the
related intangible asset was impaired as of December&nbsp;31, 2003. Based on the
analysis, Applica determined that the intangible asset had no future value and
accordingly recorded an impairment charge of $7.2&nbsp;million, which is included as

a separate line item in the statement of operations for the year ended December
31, 2003. The fair value of this intangible asset was based on an estimate of
Applica&#146;s future cash flows resulting from the use of the Black &#038; Decker&#174;
tradename, taking into account the royalties now required to be paid on each
product sold.


<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Amortization expense related to intangible assets was $8.6&nbsp;million during
2003 (excluding the above impairment charge of $7.2&nbsp;million) and $8.3&nbsp;million during
2002. The following table provides information regarding estimated
amortization expense for each of the following years ended December&nbsp;31:

other things, restrict the ability of Applica to dispose of assets, incur

or redeem capital stock, enter into certain investments or create new
subsidiaries, enter into sale and lease-back transactions, make certain
acquisitions, engage in mergers or consolidations, create liens, or engage in

required to comply with a minimum borrowing base availability and a maximum
annual capital expenditure requirement.

<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Applica issued $130.0&nbsp;million in 10% Senior Subordinated Notes in July
1998, which bear interest at an annual rate of 10%, are payable semi-annually
and mature on July&nbsp;31, 2008. The notes are general unsecured obligations of
Applica and rank subordinate in right of payment to all senior debt of Applica
and pari passu in right of payment to all future subordinated indebtedness of
Applica. The notes may be redeemed at the option of Applica, in whole or in
part, on or after July&nbsp;31, 2003 at various redemption prices. During 2003,
Applica repurchased $65&nbsp;million of these notes, and incurred a loss on
redemption of $3.9&nbsp;million. In February&nbsp;2004, Applica repurchased an
additional $4.25&nbsp;million of these notes on the open market and incurred a loss
on redemption of approximately $200,000.


<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The indenture pursuant to which the notes were issued contains certain
covenants that, among other things, limit the ability of Applica to incur
additional indebtedness and issue preferred stock, pay dividends or make other
certain restricted payments, apply net proceeds from certain asset sales, or
sell stock of subsidiaries.


<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<B>Mortgage Loan</B>


<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;In April&nbsp;2002, Applica Consumer Products, Inc., Applica&#146;s U.S. operating
subsidiary, entered into a five-year $6.0&nbsp;million mortgage loan on Applica&#146;s
executive offices located in Miami Lakes, Florida. The loan bears interest at
an annual rate of 7.25%, with monthly principal and interest payments based on
a 20-year amortization. A final balloon payment is due at the end of the term.
The loan is collateralized by a first mortgage on the property and the
building located thereon. In November&nbsp;2003, Applica entered into an agreement
to sell its executive offices located in Miami Lakes to an unrelated party for $9.5&nbsp;million, which is
scheduled to close in July&nbsp;2004. At the time of closing, approximately $6
million of the proceeds will be used to repay the outstanding mortgage on the
property. Applica&#146;s intention is to enter into a non-cancelable long-term
operating lease for new corporate office space in South Florida. No commitment
has been made as of the current date.

<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The Internal Revenue Service has completed its examination of Applica&#146;s
U.S. tax returns for the years 1994 through 1998. One adjustment has been
proposed, which, if sustained, would defer a deduction taken by Applica in 1995
until 1998 and would result in an interest charge net of the tax benefit of
approximately $500,000. Applica believes its position is correct and is
protesting the disallowance but had accrued for the related liability as of
December&nbsp;31, 2003 and 2002. In addition, Applica Canada Corporation, Applica&#146;s
Canadian operating subsidiary, is currently under audit by the Ontario Ministry
of Finance for the 2000, 2001 and 2002 tax years. Management believes that
adequate provision for taxes has been made for the years under examination and
those not yet examined.

<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Applica also has NOLs in numerous states that have a tax benefit of $7.2
million and $9.7&nbsp;million in 2003 and 2002, respectively. Applica has applied
valuation allowances, tax effected, against these NOLs of $4.1&nbsp;million and $7.1
million in 2003 and 2002, respectively. In addition, Applica has U.S. foreign
tax credits of $8.1&nbsp;million and $8.7&nbsp;million in 2003 and 2002, respectively,
net of an established valuation allowance of $3.3&nbsp;million as of 2003 and $2.4
million as of 2002. Applica establishes valuation allowances against the state
NOLs and U.S. foreign tax credits when it is more likely than not that the
benefits will not be realized prior to expiration.


<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt"><B>NOTE J - COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES</B>



<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<B>Litigation</B>


<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<B><I>Tilia Matters</I></B>. In May&nbsp;2003, Applica brought suit against Tilia
International, Inc. in U.S. district court in Miami, Florida to invalidate
certain patents held by Tilia relating to its home vacuum packaging products.
Immediately thereafter, Tilia sued Applica in the U.S. district court in
California for alleged patent infringement by Applica&#146;s Black &#038; Decker&#174; branded
vacuum packaging machine and accessories. The California district court action
was voluntarily dismissed without prejudice by Tilia in favor of the district
court proceeding in Florida. In January&nbsp;2004, Applica amended its complaint to
add allegations that Tilia has violated U.S antitrust laws. The Florida action
is in its initial stages.


<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;In July&nbsp;2003, Tilia filed a complaint against Applica and other parties
with the International Trade Commission, known as the ITC, in Washington D.C.
Tilia alleged infringement of its patent related to vacuum packaging machines
and requested permanent relief in the form of an exclusion order. Tilia also
sought preliminary relief, requesting a temporary exclusion order that would
prevent Applica from selling its vacuum sealer product in the U.S. Tilia&#146;s
request for a temporary exclusion order was denied by the ITC in January&nbsp;2004.
Full trial before the ITC currently is scheduled for May&nbsp;2004, with a final ITC
decision expected in November&nbsp;2004.


<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;In late September&nbsp;2003, Applica also brought a nullity action in Germany
seeking to invalidate the German counterpart of the Tilia vacuum sealer machine
patent. This matter is in its initial stages.


<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;We believe that the amount of ultimate liability of these matters, if any,
is not likely to have a material effect on our business, financial condition,
results of operations or liquidity and, accordingly, no accrual has been recorded as of December&nbsp;31, 2003. However, as the outcome of litigation is
difficult to predict, significant changes in the estimated exposures could
occur.


<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<B>Other Matters</B>. Applica is also subject to other legal proceedings,
product liability claims and other claims that arise in the ordinary course of
its business. In the opinion of management, the amount of ultimate liability,
if any, in excess of applicable insurance coverage, is not likely to have a
material effect on the financial condition, results of operations or liquidity
of Applica. However, as the outcome of litigation or other legal claims is
difficult to predict, significant changes in the estimated exposures could
occur, which could have a material impact on Applica&#146;s operations.


<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<B>Employment Agreements</B>


<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Applica has entered into employment agreements with several of its
executive officers for periods ranging from two to five years. The agreements
provide the employees with an option to terminate their agreements and receive
lump sum payments of up to five years compensation if there is a change in
control of Applica, as defined in such agreements.


<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<B>Leases</B>


<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Applica has non-cancelable operating leases for office leases and office
equipment. The leases expire over the next six years and contain provisions
for certain annual rental escalations.


<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Future minimum payments under Applica&#146;s non-cancelable long-term operating
leases are as follows:

approximately $7.5&nbsp;million, $8.1&nbsp;million and $9.2&nbsp;million, respectively.


<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;In November&nbsp;2003, Applica entered into an agreement to sell its executive
offices located in Miami Lakes for $9.5&nbsp;million, which is scheduled to close in
July&nbsp;2004. Applica&#146;s intention is to enter into a non-cancelable long-term
operating lease for new corporate office space in South Florida. No commitment
has been made as of the current date.


<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Applica leases a 562,000 square foot warehouse in Little Rock, Arkansas
for warehousing and distribution, which expires in March&nbsp;2008. Durable&#146;s
facilities in China are operated under contracts with the local government,
with terms between two and ten years. During 2002, Applica closed its office
in Shelton, Connecticut.


<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<B>License Agreement</B>


<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;As part of its acquisition of the Black &#038; Decker household products group
in June&nbsp;1998, Applica licensed the Black &#038; Decker brand in North America, Latin
America (excluding Brazil) and the Caribbean for four categories of household
appliances. The license was on a royalty-free basis for the four product
categories through June&nbsp;2003. In July&nbsp;2001, Applica and The Black &#038; Decker
Corporation entered into an extension of the trademark license agreement
through December&nbsp;31, 2006. Under the agreement as extended, Applica agreed to
pay certain fees and guaranteed minimum royalty payments to The Black &#038; Decker
Corporation of $1.2&nbsp;million in 2001, $2.0&nbsp;million in 2002, $5.0&nbsp;million in 2003
and $12.5&nbsp;million in each year thereafter through 2006. Renewals of the
license agreement, if mutually agreed upon, are for five-year periods. If The
Black &#038; Decker Corporation does not agree to renew the license agreement,
Applica has 18&nbsp;months to transition out of the product line. No minimum
royalty payments would be due during such transition period. The Black &#038;
Decker Corporation has agreed not to compete in core product categories for a
period of five years after the termination of such license agreement.


<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Upon request, The Black &#038; Decker Corporation may elect to extend the
license to use the Black &#038; Decker&#174; brand to certain additional products. Such
additional products are subject to royalty payments. In 2000 and 2001, Black &#038;
Decker extended the license to heaters, fans, humidifiers, dehumidifiers, air
purifiers, deep fryers and bag sealers. In 2002, Black &#038; Decker agreed to
extend the license to ice cream makers and mixers. In 2003, the license was
further extended to certain electronic pest and insect control products, a
stain removal product and vacuum bag sealers.

<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;In April&nbsp;1994, Applica purchased from Ourimbah Investment Limited
(&#147;Ourimbah&#148;) the remaining 20% of the issued and outstanding capital stock (the
&#147;Purchased Shares&#148;) of Applica Durable Manufacturing Limited, Applica&#146;s Chinese
manufacturer, which had not, prior to such purchase, been owned, directly or
indirectly, by Applica. In connection with such purchase, Applica agreed to
make an additional payment (based upon amounts received in connection with any
such change in control) to Ourimbah for the Purchased Shares upon the
occurrence of a change of control (as defined) of Applica Incorporated on or
before July&nbsp;1, 2009. No change of control will be deemed to have occurred in
connection with any transaction approved by a majority of the members of
Applica&#146;s Board of Directors.

<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<B>Stock Options</B>


<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Under various plans, Applica may grant incentive or non-qualified stock
options to employees, consultants and directors. The terms of stock options
granted under the plans are determined by the Compensation Committee of the
Board of Directors at the time of grant, including the exercise price, term and
any restrictions on the exercisability of such option. The exercise price of
all options granted under the plans equals the market price at the date of
grant and no option is exercisable after the expiration of ten years from the
date of grant. The stock options outstanding under the plans were generally
granted for terms of five, six or ten years and vest on a straight line basis
over periods ranging from one to six years. No compensation expense was
recognized upon either the grant or exercise of these stock options.

<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<B>Employee Stock Purchase Plan</B>


<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;In May&nbsp;2000, Applica&#146;s shareholders authorized up to 500,000 shares of
common stock for the 2000 Employee Stock Purchase Plan. Under the plan,
eligible employees may elect to participate on January 1 or July 1 of each
year. Subject to certain limitations determined in accordance with
calculations set forth in the plan, an eligible employee is granted a right to
purchase shares of common stock (up to a maximum of 1,000 shares) on the last
business day on or before each June&nbsp;30th and December&nbsp;31st of any year during
which he or she is a participant. The option exercise price per share will be
an amount equal to 85% of the lower of the market price on the first day of the
twelve-month offering period or the market price on the exercise date, unless
the participant&#146;s entry date is not the first day of the offering period, in
which case the exercise price will be an amount equal to 85% of the lower of
the market price of the common stock on the entry date or the market price on
the exercise date. As of December
31, 2003 and 2002, an aggregate of 263,958 and 206,776 shares,
respectively, of common stock had been issued under the plan.

<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;In February&nbsp;2003, the Board of Directors of Applica Incorporated
terminated Applica&#146;s Common Stock Purchase Rights Plan. The plan was terminated
by redeeming the Rights that were issued under the Rights Agreement. The
Rights were redeemed at a price of $.00001 per right, paid in cash.

<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Intercompany sales are billed at prices established by Applica. All
United States revenues are derived from sales to unaffiliated customers.
Geographic area of sales is based primarily on the location from where the
product is shipped. Included in United States operations are certain sales
derived from direct product shipments from Hong Kong directly to customers
located in the United States.


<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt"><B>NOTE M - CONCENTRATION OF CREDIT AND OTHER RISKS</B>



<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Applica sells on credit terms to a majority of its customers, most of
which are U.S., Canadian and Latin American retailers and distributors located
throughout those countries.


<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Wal-Mart Corporation accounted for 29.8%, 24.5% and 24.3% of 2003, 2002
and 2001 consolidated net sales, respectively. As of December&nbsp;31, 2003 and
2002, Wal-Mart Corporation accounted for 29.0% and 21.5%, respectively, of
Applica&#146;s consolidated accounts receivable.


<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;A majority of Applica&#146;s revenue is generated from the sale of Black &#038;
Decker&#174; branded products, which represented approximately 70%, 62% and 63% of
consolidated net sales in 2003, 2002 and 2001, respectively.


<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Applica&#146;s allowance for doubtful accounts is based on management&#146;s
estimates of the creditworthiness of its customers, current economic conditions
and historical information, and, in the opinion of management is believed to be
set in an amount sufficient to respond to normal business conditions.
Management sets specific allowances for customers in

<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">bankruptcy, if any, and an additional allowance for the remaining customers.
Should business conditions deteriorate or any major credit customer default on
its obligations to Applica, this allowance may need to be increased which may
have an adverse impact upon Applica&#146;s earnings. As of December&nbsp;31, 2003 and
2002, the allowance for bad debt was $12.5&nbsp;million and $15.8&nbsp;million,
respectively.



<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;In 2002, Applica Consumer Products, Inc. entered into credit approved
receivables purchasing agreements with CIT Group/Commercial Services, Inc. The
agreements allow Applica to transfer to CIT, without recourse, approved
receivables under certain circumstances, including the bankruptcy of covered
customers. Applica remains the servicer of the approved receivables and pays
fees based upon a percentage of the gross face amount of each approved
receivable. These agreements are strictly to insure selected receivables. As
of December&nbsp;31, 2003 and 2002, Applica was insuring $16.5&nbsp;million and $4.4
million of receivables under this agreement.


<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Applica&#146;s manufacturing operations are located abroad and Applica
purchases a significant amount of product from third party suppliers in the Far
East. Applica also sells its products to customers located in foreign
jurisdictions, including Latin America, Canada and China. The majority of
Applica&#146;s products are manufactured by its Hong Kong based manufacturing
subsidiary, Applica Durable Manufacturing Limited, and its Mexican
manufacturing subsidiary, Applica Manufacturing, S. de. R.L. de C.V. The
geographical distances between China, the United States and Mexico create a
number of logistical and communications challenges. Because Applica
manufactures its products and conducts business in several foreign countries,
Applica is affected by economic and political conditions in those countries,
including fluctuations in the value of currency, increased duties, possible
employee turnover, labor unrest, lack of developed infrastructure, longer
payment cycles, greater difficulty in collecting accounts receivable, and the
burdens and costs of compliance with a variety of foreign laws. Changes in
policies by the United States or foreign governments resulting in, among other
things, increased duties, higher taxation, currency conversion limitations,
restrictions on the transfer of funds, limitations on imports or exports, or
the expropriation of private enterprises could have a material adverse effect
on Applica, its results of operations, prospects or debt service ability.
Applica could also be adversely affected if the current policies encouraging
foreign investment or foreign trade by its host countries were to be reversed.


<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;If Applica determines that it is necessary to relocate Applica&#146;s
manufacturing facilities from China or Mexico and is unable to do so, due to
confiscation, expropriation, nationalization, embargoes, governmental
restrictions or otherwise, Applica would incur substantial operating and
capital losses, including losses resulting from business disruption and delays
in production. In addition, as a result of a relocation of its manufacturing
equipment and certain other assets, Applica would likely incur relatively
higher manufacturing costs. A relocation could also adversely affect Applica&#146;s
revenues if the demand for Applica&#146;s products currently manufactured in China
and Mexico decreases due to a disruption in the production and delivery of such
products or due to higher prices which might result from increased
manufacturing costs. Furthermore, earnings could be adversely affected due to
reduced sales and/or Applica&#146;s inability to maintain its current margins on the
products currently manufactured in China and Mexico.


<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;China gained Permanent Normal Trade Relations (&#147;PNTR&#148;) with the United
States when it acceded to the World Trade Organization (&#147;WTO&#148;), effective
January&nbsp;2002. The United States imposes the lowest applicable tariffs on
exports from PNTR countries to the United States. In order to maintain its
WTO membership, China has agreed to several requirements, including the
elimination of caps on foreign ownership of Chinese companies, lowering tariffs
and publicizing its laws. No assurance can be given that China will meet these
requirements and remain a member of the WTO, or that its PNTR trading status
will be maintained. If China&#146;s WTO membership is withdrawn or if PNTR status
for goods produced in China were removed, there could be a substantial increase
in tariffs imposed on goods of Chinese origin entering the United States,
including those manufactured by us, which would have a material adverse impact
on our business, financial condition and results of operations.


<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Applica Durable Manufacturing Limited is incorporated in Hong Kong and its
executive sales offices and its senior executives are located or reside there.
Applica also conducts significant trading activities through subsidiaries
incorporated in Hong Kong, which may be influenced by the changing political
situation in Hong Kong and by the general state of the Hong Kong economy.


<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Applica Manufacturing, S. de R.L. de C.V., Applica&#146;s Mexican manufacturing
facility, is incorporated in Mexico. The Mexican government exercises
significant influence over many aspects of the Mexican economy. Accordingly,
the actions of the Mexican government concerning the economy could have a
significant effect on private sector entities in general and Applica in
particular. In addition, during the 1980s and 1990s, Mexico experienced
periods of slow or negative growth, high inflation, significant devaluations of
the peso and limited availability of foreign exchange. As a

<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">result of Applica&#146;s reliance upon manufacturing facilities in Mexico, economic
conditions in Mexico could adversely affect Applica&#146;s business, financial
condition and results of operations.



<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt"><B>NOTE N - RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS</B>



<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<B>Matters Relating to Ourimbah Investment Ltd</B>. Ourimbah Investment Ltd., a
Hong Kong company, owns approximately 7.8% of the outstanding common stock of
Applica. Messrs.&nbsp;Lai Kin and Lam King Loi are majority owners of Ourimbah. Mr.
Lai Kin serves as a member of the Board of Directors of Applica and is the
former Chairman of Applica Durable Manufacturing Limited, Applica&#146;s Hong Kong
manufacturing subsidiary. Mr.&nbsp;Lam King Loi is the former Vice Chairman of
Applica Durable Manufacturing Limited.


<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;In April&nbsp;1994, in connection with the purchase by Applica of the remaining
20% of the outstanding shares of Applica Durable Manufacturing Limited from
Ourimbah, Applica agreed, upon a change of control of Applica (as defined in
the acquisition agreement), to make an additional payment to Ourimbah in
respect of the shares of Applica Durable being purchased under the agreement.
The payment is equal to the greater of (i)&nbsp;the same multiple of earnings per
share paid for the shares of common stock of Applica received in connection
with such change of control or (ii)&nbsp;the same multiple of net asset value per
share paid for the shares of common stock of Applica received in connection
with such change of control.


<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;In addition, Applica agreed to use its best efforts to recommend to its
shareholders and directors that two individuals be nominated by Mr.&nbsp;Lai Kin and
deemed suitable by Applica be appointed as members of Applica&#146;s Board of
Directors. Applica further agreed to maintain the composition of Durable&#146;s
Board of Directors equally divided between designees of Ourimbah and persons
selected by Applica. Accordingly, for so long as (i)&nbsp;such designees of
Ourimbah who are present members of the Board of Directors of Durable remain
shareholders of Ourimbah, and (ii)&nbsp;Ourimbah remains a shareholder of Applica,
Applica must vote its shares of Durable to appoint such designees of Ourimbah
to the Durable Board. When any member of the Durable Board who has been
designated by Ourimbah ceases to be a shareholder of Ourimbah, such designee
shall no longer be entitled to serve on the Durable Board, and Applica shall
have the right to designate a replacement member to the Durable Board in its
sole discretion.


<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Additionally, Applica has agreed to use its best efforts to recommend to
its shareholders and directors that Lai Kin be appointed as, and remain a
member of, Applica&#146;s Board of Directors for such time as Mr.&nbsp;Lai (or Ourimbah)
continues to be a shareholder of Applica and continues to be employed by
Durable and/or any other affiliate of Applica.


<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Applica Durable Manufacturing Limited leases certain factories and worker
dormitories in China from Ourimbah, which facilitated the building of such
factories and dormitories with the local government. The rental payments made
to Ourimbah during the year ended December&nbsp;31, 2003, 2002 and 2001 totaled
approximately $838,000, $870,000, and $850,000, respectively. The rental charges are
generally comparable to the rates charged Applica Durable Manufacturing Limited
by the local government for similar buildings and dormitories.


<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<B>Loans</B>. Applica has a loan outstanding to David M. Friedson, its Chairman
of the Board. The loan, which is unsecured, bears interest at LIBOR plus 1.5%
per annum (2.62% at December&nbsp;31, 2003) and is payable upon demand. Interest is
payable on the due date. At December&nbsp;31, 2003, 2002 and 2001, the balance of
such loan, including accrued interest, was approximately $1,039,000, $986,000
and $1,323,000, respectively.


<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;In April&nbsp;1999, Applica sold 210,000 shares of its common stock to Mr.
Friedson at the fair market value of $7.125 per share and provided a loan in
the amount of $1,496,250 that was used in connection with the purchase of such
shares. The loan is on a full recourse basis and is secured by shares of
common stock held by Mr.&nbsp;Friedson. The loan is due in April&nbsp;2005. The loan
bears interest at the rate of LIBOR plus 2.75% per annum (3.87% at December&nbsp;31,
2003). Interest is payable on the due date. The amount due to Applica,
including accrued interest, at December&nbsp;31, 2003, 2002 and 2001 was
approximately $1,949,000, $1,887,000 and 1,818,000, respectively.

the services of TJK Sales, Inc. (&#147;TJK&#148;), an independent sales representative.
Thomas J. Kane, a member of Applica&#146;s Board of Directors, is the
sole shareholder and Chief Executive Officer of TJK. Applica Consumer
Products, Inc. entered into an agreement with TJK, pursuant to which Applica
agreed to pay $3,000 per month plus certain expenses in return for TJK&#146;s
services as a sales representative to J.C. Penney. The agreement may be
terminated by either party on 30&nbsp;days&#146; notice. Payments to TJK totaled
approximately $36,000 in 2003, $125,000 in 2002 and $179,000 in 2001. Applica also
reimburses TJK for related out-of-pocket expenses.

<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<B>Dubel Industrial Limited</B>. Applica Durable Manufacturing was the majority
shareholder of Dubel Industrial Limited, which owned a dormitory building
located in China. Certain employees of Durable who resided in the dormitories
were given shares of Dubel as a form of employee benefit. As a shareholder,
these employees would also receive cash distributions based on the rental

<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Applica is exposed to the impact of interest rate changes. Applica&#146;s
objective is to manage the impact of interest rate changes on earnings and cash
flows and on the market value of its borrowings. Applica maintains fixed rate
debt as a percentage of its net debt between a minimum and maximum percentage,
which is set by policy.

<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;It is Applica&#146;s policy to enter into interest rate risk management
transactions only to the extent considered necessary to meet its objectives as
set forth above. Applica does not enter into interest rate risk management
transactions for speculative purposes.


<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Significant interest rate risk management instruments held by Applica
during 2003 and 2002 included pay-floating swaps, pay-fixed swaps and interest
rate caps. The pay-floating swap effectively converts medium term fixed-rate
obligations to LIBOR-rate indexed variable-rate instruments. Pay-fixed swaps
effectively convert floating-rate obligations to fixed-rate instruments.
Interest rate caps provide protection against rising interest rates. All swaps
that qualify for fair value hedging have maturity dates that mirror the
maturity date of the underlying hedged transaction. At December&nbsp;31, 2003 and
2002, Applica did not discontinue any hedges due to the probability that the
original underlying forecasted transaction would not occur.


<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The impact of interest rate risk management activities on pre-tax income
was negligible in 2003, a net loss of approximately $289,000 in 2002 and a net
gain of $1.7&nbsp;million in 2001.

<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Applica transacts business globally and is subject to risks associated
with changing foreign exchange rates. Applica&#146;s objective is to reduce earnings
and cash flow volatility associated with foreign exchange rate changes to allow
management to focus attention on core business issues and challenges. Applica
maintains hedge coverage between minimum and maximum percentages of its
forecasted foreign exchange exposures for periods not to exceed eighteen
months. The gains and losses on these contracts offset changes in the value of
the related exposures.


<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;It is Applica&#146;s policy to enter into foreign currency transactions only to
the extent considered necessary to meet its objectives as set forth above.
Applica does not enter into foreign currency transactions for speculative
purposes.


<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Applica enters into various contracts that change in value as foreign
exchange rates change to protect the value of its existing foreign currency
assets and liabilities, commitments and forecasted foreign currency revenues.
Applica uses option strategies and forward contracts that provide for the
purchase and sale of foreign currencies to hedge forecasted revenues and
expenses. Applica also uses forward contracts to hedge foreign currency assets
and liabilities. While these hedging instruments are subject to fluctuations in
value, such fluctuations are offset by changes in the value of the underlying
exposures being hedged. The principal currencies hedged are the Mexican peso,
Chinese renminbi, Hong Kong dollar and Canadian dollar.


<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The impact of foreign exchange risk management activities on operating
income was a net loss of $2.3&nbsp;million in 2003, a net gain of $70,000 in 2002
and a net gain of $715,000 in 2001.


<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<B>Fair Value of Financial Instruments</B>


<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;At December&nbsp;31, 2003 and 2002, Applica&#146;s financial instruments included
cash, cash equivalents, receivables, accounts payable, borrowings and interest
rate, forward and foreign exchange risk management contracts. At December&nbsp;31,
2003 and 2002, the fair values of cash and cash equivalents, receivables and
accounts payable approximated carrying values because of the short-term nature
of these instruments. The estimated fair values of other financial instruments
subject to fair value disclosures, determined based on broker quotes or quoted
market prices or rates for the same or similar instruments, and the related
carrying amounts are as follows:

<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Applica continually monitors its positions with, and the credit quality
of, the financial institutions that are counterparties to its financial
instruments, and does not anticipate nonperformance by the counterparties.
Applica would not have realized a material loss as of December&nbsp;31, 2003 or 2002
in the event of nonperformance by any one counterparty. Applica enters into
transactions only with financial institution counterparties that have a credit
rating of A or better. In addition, Applica limits the amount of investment
credit exposure with any one institution.

<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Applica&#146;s domestic subsidiaries are guarantors of Applica&#146;s 10% Senior
Subordinated Notes due 2008. The following condensed consolidating financial
information presents the results of operations, financial position and cash
flows of Applica Incorporated (on a stand alone basis), the guarantor
subsidiaries (on a combined basis), the non-guarantor subsidiaries (on a
combined basis) and the eliminations necessary to arrive at the consolidated
results of Applica. The results of operations and cash flows presented below
assume that the guarantor subsidiaries were in place for all periods presented.
Applica and guarantor subsidiaries have accounted for investments in their
respective subsidiaries on an unconsolidated basis using the equity method of
accounting. The guarantor subsidiaries are wholly owned subsidiaries of
Applica and have fully and unconditionally guaranteed the notes on a joint and
several basis. The notes contain certain covenants which, among other things,
restrict the ability of the guarantor subsidiaries to make distributions to
Applica Incorporated. Applica has not presented separate financial statements
and other disclosures concerning the guarantor subsidiaries and non-guarantor
subsidiaries because it has determined they would not be material to investors.

<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">To the Partners<BR>
Anasazi Partners, Limited Partnership

<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">We have audited the accompanying statement of assets and liabilities of Anasazi
Partners, Limited Partnership as of December&nbsp;31, 2003, and the related
statements of operations, changes in partners&#146; capital and cash flows for the
year then ended. These financial statements are the responsibility of the
Partnership&#146;s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these
financial statements based on our audit.


<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">We conducted our audit in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted
in the United States of America. Those standards require that we plan and
perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial
statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a
test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial
statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and
significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall
financial statement presentation. We believe that our audit provides a
reasonable basis for our opinion.


<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in
all material respects, the financial position of Anasazi Partners, Limited
Partnership as of December&nbsp;31, 2003, and the results of its operations and its
cash flows for the year then ended, in conformity with accounting principles
generally accepted in the United States of America.


<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">The accompanying statement of assets and liabilities, including the condensed
schedule of investments, of Anasazi Partners, Limited Partnership as of
December&nbsp;31, 2002 and the related statements of operations, changes in
Partners&#146; capital and cash flows for the years ended December&nbsp;31, 2002 and 2001
were not audited by us and, accordingly, we do not express an opinion on them.


<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">The Partnership ceased operations in 2003 after the sale of its principal
investment. The remaining net assets are intended for distribution to
creditors and partners.

Agreement of Limited Partnership, dated August&nbsp;20,
1996 (the &#147;Partnership Agreement&#148;). The Partnership&#146;s
business activity is to invest the funds of the
Partnership, with the principal objective of achieving
appreciation of capital invested. The general partner
of the Partnership is C.P. Baker, Inc. (the &#147;General
Partner&#148;). The Partnership ceased operations in 2003
after the sale of its principal investment. The
remaining net assets are intended for distribution to
creditors and partners.



<P align="left" style="margin-left:9%; font-size: 10pt"><B><I>Cash and Cash Equivalents</I></B>



<P align="left" style="margin-left:9%; font-size: 10pt">The Partnership considers all highly liquid debt
instruments purchased with an original maturity of
three months or less to be cash equivalents. The
Partnership may, during the ordinary course of
business, maintain account balances with banks in
excess of federally insured limits.



<P align="left" style="margin-left:9%; font-size: 10pt"><B><I>Investments</I></B>



<P align="left" style="margin-left:9%; font-size: 10pt"><I>Unregistered Securities </I>- The Partnership records all
unregistered securities transactions on a settlement
date basis, using the specific identification method.
The fair value of these securities are determined in
good faith by the General Partner. In determining the
fair market value of these investments, the General
Partner considers factors such as earnings trends,
earnings forecasts, recent transactions in the same or
similar securities and all other indications of fair
value that are available. The value assigned to these
investments is based upon available information and
does not necessarily represent the amount that might
ultimately be realized upon sale. Because of the
inherent uncertainty of valuation, these estimated
fair values may differ significantly from the value
that would have been used had a ready market for the
securities existed, and the differences could be
material.



<P align="left" style="margin-left:9%; font-size: 10pt"><I>Marketable Securities </I>- The Partnership records all
marketable securities transactions on a trade date
basis, using the specific identification method.
Securities and other investments traded on a national
exchange or on the national market system of NASDAQ
are valued at the last sale price or, if there has
been no sale on that date, then at the last reported
sale price within the five-day period preceding such
date; otherwise, at the closing bid price, provided
that any securities or other investments sold short
are valued at the closing asked price. Other
securities or investments for which over-the-counter
market quotations are available are similarly valued
at the last trade price or bid quotation, provided
that securities or investments sold short are valued
at the last current asked quotation. The General
Partner has sole and absolute discretion in valuing
any positions for which market quotations are not
readily available or in adjusting the valuation of any
other position.

<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt"><B>NOTE 1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)</B>




<P align="left" style="margin-left:9%; font-size: 10pt"><B><I>Investment Income and Expenses</I></B>



<P align="left" style="margin-left:9%; font-size: 10pt">Interest income and expenses are recorded on the accrual basis.
Other partnership expenses generally consist of costs, expenses
and obligations relating to the Partnership&#146;s activities,
investments and business as defined by the Partnership Agreement.



<P align="left" style="margin-left:9%; font-size: 10pt"><B><I>Income Taxes</I></B>



<P align="left" style="margin-left:9%; font-size: 10pt">No provision has been made for income taxes since the income or
loss is includible in the tax returns of the partners.
Additionally, the cost basis of assets and liabilities in the
accompanying financial statements approximates their basis for
income tax purposes.



<P align="left" style="margin-left:9%; font-size: 10pt"><B><I>Use of Estimates</I></B>



<P align="left" style="margin-left:9%; font-size: 10pt">The preparation of financial statements in conformity with
accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of
America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that
affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and
disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of
the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and
expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ
from those estimates.


<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt"><B>NOTE 2. INVESTMENTS IN PRIVATE COMPANIES, AT FAIR VALUE</B>




<P align="left" style="margin-left:9%; font-size: 10pt">At December&nbsp;31, 2002, investments in private companies were valued
at $41,538,583. These values have been estimated by the General
Partner in the absence of readily ascertainable market values.
However, because of the inherent uncertainty of valuation, those
estimated values may differ significantly from the values that would
have been used had a ready market for the securities existed, and
the difference could be material.


<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt"><B>NOTE 3. SIGNIFICANT TRANSACTIONS</B>




<P align="left" style="margin-left:9%; font-size: 10pt">In 2003, the Partnership sold its ownership interest in
ZonePerfect Nutrition Company, Inc. for approximately $85.2
million, recognizing a realized gain of approximately $83.3
million. In connection with the sale, $6.3&nbsp;million is being held
in escrow against potential claims concerning representations and
warranties of the seller. This amount is included in the
accompanying financial statements as realized gain on investments
and escrow receivable. Additionally, the Partnership may be
entitled to receive up to an additional $6.3&nbsp;million, which is
also held in escrow, dependent upon the satisfactory performance
of certain contract renegotiations. This amount has not been
included in the financial statements as its realization is
dependent upon the resolution of future events.

<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt"><B>NOTE 4. LIMITED PARTNERSHIP AGREEMENT</B>




<P align="left" style="margin-left:9%; font-size: 10pt"><B><I>Income and Expense Allocation</I></B>



<P align="left" style="margin-left:9%; font-size: 10pt">The Partnership Agreement provides for the allocation of net profits
and net losses to and among the partners in proportion to their
respective partnership percentages based upon each partners
respective pro-rata capital account. Realized capital gains and
losses are allocated in accordance with the Partnership Agreement.
Effective January&nbsp;1, 2003, the Partnership agreement was amended to
provide for a specific allocation of the net profits resulting from
the Partnership&#146;s interest in ZonePerfect.



<P align="left" style="margin-left:9%; font-size: 10pt"><B><I>Distributions</I></B>



<P align="left" style="margin-left:9%; font-size: 10pt">Distributions may be made at the discretion of the General Partner
and the distribution must be made first in cash to the extent
practicable and then in securities. Cash distributions representing
a return of capital are made in proportion to contributed capital.
Generally, cash distributions representing profit are made in the
same proportion as such profit is allocated to the capital accounts.
