MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OR PLAN OF OPERATION Results of Operations --------------------- Quarter ended March 31, 2004 vs 2003: ------------------------------------- Revenue for the first quarter of 2004 increased by $ 1,636,774 or 31.1% when compared to the corresponding quarter of 2003. The increase was the result of a $ 1,657,155 increase in sales from the jewelry segment. The increase in jewelry segment sales was the result of a $ 630,214 increase in precious metal sales and a $ 1,026,941 increase in jewelry sales. These increases were due to a nation-wide improvement in the retail environment and significant price increases in precious metal products. Pawn service fees increased by 13.7% due to an increase in loan volume. Cost of sales increased primarily due to the increase in sales. Gross margins increased from 19.7% in 2003 to 19.9% in 2004 due to the increase in sales of jewelry products. Selling, general and administration expenses increased by $ 44,504 due an increase in sales staff. Income taxes are provided at the corporate rate of 34% for both 2004 and 2003 Loss from discontinued operations during 2003 in the amount of $ 15,149 net of income taxes is the combined results of two subsidiaries of the Company, DLS Financial Services, Inc. and eye media, inc. The operations of these two companies were discontinued during 2003. Liquidity and Capital Resources ------------------------------- The Company's short-term debt, including current maturities of long-term debt totaled $2,600,374 as of March 31, 2004. The ability of the Company to finance its operations and working capital needs are dependent upon management's ability to negotiate extended terms or refinance its short-term debt. The Company has historically renewed, extended or replaced short-term debt as it matures and management believes that it will be able to do so in the future as short-term debt matures. Management of the Company expects capital expenditures to total approximately $50,000 during the balance of 2004. It is anticipated that these expenditures will be funded from working capital. From time to time, management has adjusted the Company's inventory levels to meet seasonal demand or in order to meet working capital requirements. Management is of the opinion that if additional working capital is required, additional loans can be obtained from individuals or from commercial banks. If necessary, inventory levels may be adjusted or a portion of the Company's investments in marketable securities may be liquidated in order to meet working capital requirements.
