EMERSON RADIO CORP. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO INTERIM CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)

NOTE 1 — BACKGROUND AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Emerson Radio Corp. (“Emerson”, consolidated — the “Company”), and its subsidiaries. The Company designs, sources, imports and markets a variety of houseware and consumer electronic products, and licenses the Company’s trademarks for a variety of products domestically and internationally.

The unaudited interim consolidated financial statements reflect all normal and recurring adjustments that are, in the opinion of management, necessary to present a fair statement of the Company’s consolidated financial position as of September 30, 2011 and the results of operations for the three and six month periods ended September 30, 2011 and September 30, 2010. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary in order to make the financial statements not misleading have been included. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. The preparation of the unaudited interim consolidated financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes; actual results could materially differ from those estimates. The unaudited interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and accordingly do not include all of the disclosures normally made in the Company’s annual consolidated financial statements. Accordingly, these unaudited interim consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2011 (“fiscal 2011”), included in the Company’s annual report on Form 10-K, as amended, for fiscal 2011.

The results of operations for the three and six month periods ended September 30, 2011 are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations that may be expected for any other interim periods or for the full year ended March 31, 2012 (“fiscal 2012”).

Certain reclassifications were made to conform the prior year’s financial statements to the current presentation.

Unless otherwise disclosed in the notes to these financial statements, the estimated fair value of the financial assets and liabilities approximates the carrying value.

Stock-Based Compensation

The Company measures compensation cost for stock-based compensation arrangements based on grant date fair value. The computed fair value is expensed ratably over the requisite vesting period as required by ASC Topic 718 “Compensation — Stock Compensation”. All outstanding stock based compensation arrangements issued by the Company were fully vested as of November 30, 2009. Consequently, the Company recorded no compensation costs during either of the three or six month periods ended September 30, 2011 and September 30, 2010.

Sales Allowance and Marketing Support Expenses

Sales allowances, marketing support programs, promotions and other volume-based incentives which are provided to retailers and distributors are accounted for on an accrual basis as a reduction to net revenues in the period in which the related sales are recognized in accordance with ASC topic 605, “Revenue Recognition”, subtopic 50 “Customer Payments and Incentives” and Securities and Exchange Commission Staff Accounting Bulletins 101 “Revenue Recognition in Financial Statements,” and 104 “Revenue Recognition, corrected copy” (“SAB’s 101 and 104”).

At the time of sale, the Company reduces recognized gross revenue by allowances to cover, in addition to estimated sales returns as required by ASC topic 605, “Revenue Recognition”, subtopic 15 “Products”, (i) sales incentives offered to customers that meet the criteria for accrual under ASC topic 605, subtopic 50 and (ii) under SAB’s 101 and 104, an estimated amount to recognize additional non-offered deductions it anticipates and can reasonably estimate will be taken by customers which it does not expect to recover. Accruals for the estimated amount of future non-offered deductions are required to be made as contra-revenue items because that percentage of shipped revenue fails to meet the collectability criteria within SAB 104’s and 101’s four revenue recognition criteria, all of which are required to be met in order to recognize revenue.

If additional marketing support programs, promotions and other volume-based incentives are required to promote the Company’s products subsequent to the initial sale, then additional reserves may be required and are accrued for when such support is offered.

NOTE 2 — COMPREHENSIVE INCOME

Comprehensive income equaled net income for both of the three and six month periods ended September 30, 2011 and September 30, 2010.

NOTE 3 — NET EARNINGS PER SHARE

The following table sets forth the computation of basic and diluted earnings per share (in thousands, except per share amounts):

Denominator for diluted earnings per share — weighted average shares and assumed conversions		27,130		27,131		27,130		27,131
Basic and diluted earnings per share	$	.06	$	.12	$	.19	$	.34

NOTE 4 — SHAREHOLDERS’ EQUITY

Outstanding capital stock at September 30, 2011 consisted of common stock and Series A convertible preferred stock. The Series A convertible preferred stock is non-voting, has no dividend preferences and has not been convertible since March 31, 2002; however, it retains a liquidation preference.

At September 30, 2011, the Company had approximately 50,000 options outstanding with exercise prices ranging from $3.07 to $3.19.

NOTE 5 — INVENTORY

Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or market. Cost is determined using the first-in, first-out method. As of September 30, 2011 and March 31, 2011, inventories consisted of the following (in thousands):

	September 30, 2011			March 31, 2011
	(Unaudited)
Finished goods	$	25,709		$	10,593
Less inventory allowances		(397	)		(2,078	)
Net inventory	$	25,312		$	8,515

NOTE 6 — INCOME TAXES

The Company has tax net operating loss carry forwards included in net deferred tax assets that are available to offset future taxable income and can be carried forward for 20 years. Although realization is not assured, management believes it is more likely than not that all of the net deferred tax assets will be realized through tax planning strategies available in future periods and through future profitable operating results. The amount of the deferred tax asset considered realizable could be reduced or eliminated if certain tax planning strategies are not successfully executed or estimates of future taxable income during the carry forward period are reduced. If management determines that the Company would not be able to realize all or part of the net deferred tax asset in the future, an adjustment to the deferred tax asset would be charged to income in the period such determination was made.

The Company’s effective tax rate differs from the federal statutory rate primarily due to expenses that are not deductible for federal income tax purposes, income and losses incurred in foreign jurisdictions and taxed at locally applicable tax rates, and state income taxes.

7

The Company is subject to examination and assessment by tax authorities in numerous jurisdictions. A summary of the Company’s open tax years is as follows as of September 30, 2011:

Jurisdiction	Open tax years
U.S. federal		2007-2010
States		2006-2010

Based on the outcome of tax examinations or due to the expiration of statutes of limitations, it is reasonably possible that the unrecognized tax benefits related to uncertain tax positions taken in previously filed returns may be different from the liabilities that have been recorded for these unrecognized tax benefits. As a result, the Company may be subject to additional tax expense.

NOTE 7 — RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

From time to time, Emerson engages in business transactions with its controlling shareholder, The Grande Holdings Limited (Provisional Liquidators Appointed) (“Grande”), and one or more of Grande’s direct and indirect subsidiaries. Set forth below is a summary of such transactions.

Majority Shareholder

Grande’s Ownership Interest in Emerson. Grande, a Bermuda corporation, has advised the Company that, as of September 30, 2011, one of its indirect subsidiaries held beneficially 15,243,283 shares or approximately 56.2% of the outstanding common stock of Emerson. That number of shares includes 3,389,401 shares (the “Pledged Shares”) which, according to public filings made by Deutsche Bank AG (“Deutsche Bank”) in March 2010 had previously been pledged to Deutsche Bank to secure indebtedness owed to it. In February 2011, Deutsche Bank filed a Schedule 13G with the Securities and Exchange Commission stating that Deutsche Bank had sole voting and sole dispositive power over the Pledged Shares (which represent approximately 12.5% of the Company’s outstanding common stock). The Company believes that both Grande and Deutsche Bank have claimed beneficial ownership of the Pledged Shares. As of November 14, 2011, the Company has not been able to verify independently the beneficial ownership of the Pledged Shares.

Related Party Transactions

Leases and Other Real Estate Transactions.

Rented Space in Hong Kong

Effective January 1, 2010, Emerson entered into a lease agreement with Lafe Properties (Hong Kong) Limited (“Lafe”), a related party of Grande at that time, pursuant to which Emerson rented 36,540 square feet from Lafe for the purpose of housing its Hong Kong based office personnel and for its use to refurbish certain returned products. This lease agreement expired on December 31, 2010 and was renewed for a one year period on substantially the same terms during December 2010, and therefore now expires on December 31, 2011. On December 31, 2010, Lafe was sold by its immediate holding company to an independent third party. As such, the Company is no longer considering Lafe to be a related party to the Company beginning December 31, 2010.

Related service charges associated with this lease agreement that the Company continues to procure from Brighton Marketing Limited, a subsidiary of Grande, The Grande Properties Management Limited, a related party of Grande, and The Grande Group (HK) Ltd., a related party of Grande, totaled approximately $15,000 and $54,000 for the three and six months ended September 30, 2011, respectively. Emerson owed Brighton Marketing Limited approximately $1,000 pertaining to these charges at September 30, 2011.

For the three and six months ended September 30, 2010, Emerson’s rent expense and related service charges associated with this lease agreement totaled approximately $174,000 and $347,000, respectively. Emerson owed Brighton Marketing Limited approximately $3,000 pertaining to these charges at September 30, 2010. In addition, at September 30, 2010, Lafe held a security deposit of approximately $113,000 that Emerson had paid to Lafe on the leased property, which was reclassified by Emerson to third party rental deposit in December 2010.

Rented Space in the People’s Republic of China

In December 2008, Emerson signed a lease agreement with Akai Electric (China) Co., Ltd. (“Akai China”), a subsidiary of Grande prior to its disposal on December 24, 2010, concerning the rental of office space, office equipment, and lab equipment for Emerson’s quality assurance personnel in Zhongshan, People’s Republic of China. The lease term began in July 2007 and ended by its terms in June 2009, at which time the agreement renewed automatically on a month-by-month basis unless canceled by either party. The agreement was cancelled in May 2011.

8

On December 24, 2010, Grande announced that it sold Capetronic Group Ltd. (“Capetronic”) to a purchaser who, along with its beneficial owner, are third parties independent of Grande and its connected persons, as defined in the Listing Rules to the best of Grande’s and its directors’ knowledge, information and belief, having made all reasonable enquiries (the “Sale”). As Akai China was a subsidiary of Capetronic at the time of the Sale, and was disposed of along with Capetronic by Grande, the Company is no longer considering Akai China to be a related party to the Company beginning December 24, 2010.

For the three and six months ended September 30, 2010, Emerson’s rent expense associated with this lease agreement totaled approximately $28,000 and $56,000, respectively, and Emerson owed nil to Akai China related to this agreement at September 30, 2010. In addition, at September 30, 2010, Akai China held a security deposit of approximately $32,000 that Emerson had paid to Akai China on the leased property, which was reclassified by Emerson to third party rental deposit in December 2010.

Other.

During the three and six months ended September 30, 2011, Emerson paid consulting fees of approximately $11,000 and $14,000, respectively, to Mr. Eduard Will, a director of Emerson, for work performed by Mr. Will related to strategy for the Kayne Litigation as more fully described in Note 9 — “Legal Proceedings — Kayne Litigation”, merger and acquisition research, as well as work related to the strategy for a shareholder derivative lawsuit that the Company settled in January 2011. In addition, during the three and six months ended September 30, 2011, Emerson paid expense reimbursements and advances of nil and approximately $18,000, respectively, to Mr. Eduard Will, related to this consulting work and his service as a director of Emerson. At September 30, 2011, Mr. Will owed the Company approximately $8,000 in the form of unused travel advances previously paid to him for which the travel had not yet occurred.

During the three and six months ended September 30, 2010, Emerson paid consulting fees of approximately $29,000 and $61,000 to Mr. Will for work performed by Mr. Will related to strategy for a shareholder derivative lawsuit that the Company settled in January 2011. In addition, during the three and six months ended September 30, 2010, Emerson paid expense reimbursements and advances of approximately $20,000 and $22,000, respectively, to Mr. Will, related to this consulting work and his service as a director of Emerson. At September 30, 2010, Mr. Will owed the Company approximately $11,000 in the form of unused travel advances previously paid to him for which the travel had not yet occurred.

During the three and six months ended September 30, 2010, Akai Sales Pte Ltd. (“Akai Sales”), a subsidiary of Grande, invoiced Emerson nil and approximately $7,300 for travel expenses and courier fees. At September 30, 2010, Emerson owed Akai Sales nil.

During the three and six months ended September 30, 2011, Emerson invoiced Vigers Property Management Services (HK) Ltd. and Vigers Appraisal & Consulting Ltd. (together “Vigers”), related parties of Grande, in the aggregate, approximately $1,000 and $2,000, respectively, for office rental and usage of telephone and data lines maintained by Emerson. Vigers owed Emerson approximately $1,000 at September 30, 2011 related to this activity. During the three and six months ended September 30, 2010, Emerson invoiced Vigers, in the aggregate, approximately $2,000 and $3,000, respectively, for the same type of activity. Vigers owed Emerson nil at September 30, 2010, related to this activity.

On April 7, 2010, upon a request made to the Company by its foreign controlling stockholder, S&T International Distribution Limited (“S&T”), a subsidiary of Grande, the Company entered into an agreement with S&T, whereby the Company returned to S&T on April 7, 2010 that portion of the taxes that the Company had withheld from the dividend paid on March 24, 2010 to S&T, which the Company believes is not subject to U.S. tax based on the Company’s good-faith estimate of its accumulated earnings and profits (the “Agreement”). The Company believes this transaction results in an off-balance sheet arrangement, which is comprised of a possible contingent tax liability of the Company, which, if recognized, would be offset by the calling by the Company on S&T of the indemnification provisions of the Agreement. Per the terms of the Agreement, Emerson invoiced S&T in June 2010 approximately $42,000 for reimbursement of legal fees incurred by Emerson with regard to the Agreement and approximately $33,000 as a transaction fee for having entered into the Agreement. At June 30, 2010, S&T owed these fees, totaling $75,000, to Emerson. In January 2011, Emerson agreed, upon the request of S&T, to waive approximately $5,000 of the legal charges that had been invoiced to S&T in June 2010. S&T paid the full amount owed to Emerson of approximately $70,000 in February 2011 and consequently owed Emerson nil at September 30, 2011.

NOTE 8 — BORROWINGS

Short-term Borrowings

At September 30, 2011, the Company had no short-term borrowings. At March 31, 2011, the Company had $2.5 million of short-term borrowings outstanding under a credit line maintained with Smith Barney, collateralized by the Company’s auction rate security holdings, which were sold in full for cash in May 2011. Upon the sale of this last remaining auction rate security in May 2011, the Company paid in full the $2.5 million balance of its short-term borrowings using the sale proceeds (see Note 10 — Marketable Securities).

Letters of Credit — Beginning November 2010, the Company began utilizing Hang Seng Bank to issue letters of credit on behalf of the Company, as needed, on a 100% cash collateralized basis. At September 30, 2011, the Company had outstanding letters of credit totaling $667,000. A like amount of cash, which was posted by the Company as collateral against these outstanding letters of credit, at September 30, 2011, has been classified by the Company as Restricted Cash on the balance sheet.

Long-term Borrowings

At September 30, 2011 and March 31, 2011, borrowings under long-term facilities consisted of the following (in thousands):

	September 30, 2011			March 31, 2011
	(Unaudited)
Capitalized lease obligations and other		161			196
Less current maturities		(44	)		(46	)
Long term debt and notes payable	$	117		$	150

NOTE 9 — LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

Kayne Litigation — On July 7, 2011, the Company was served with an amended complaint (the “Complaint”) filed in the United States District Court for the Central District of California alleging, among other things, that the Company, certain of its present and former directors and other entities or individuals now or previously associated with Grande, intentionally interfered with the ability of the plaintiffs to collect on a judgment (now approximately $47 million) they had against Grande by engaging in transactions (such as the dividend paid to all shareholders in March 2010) which transferred assets out of the United States. The Complaint also asserts claims under the civil RICO statute and for alter ego liability. In the Company’s opinion, based on an initial review, the claims appear to be devoid of merit. Accordingly, on September 27, 2011, Emerson moved to dismiss the action for failure to state a claim (the “Motion”). The Court has scheduled oral argument for the Motion for December 19, 2011. In the interim, and in the event that the Motion is denied, Emerson intends to defend the action vigorously.

Except for the litigation matters described above, the Company is not currently a party to any legal proceedings other than litigation matters, in most cases involving ordinary and routine claims incidental to our business. Management cannot estimate with certainty the Company’s ultimate legal and financial liability with respect to such pending litigation matters. However, management believes, based on our examination of such matters, that the Company’s ultimate liability will not have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

NOTE 10 — MARKETABLE SECURITIES:

As of September 30, 2011 and March 31, 2011, the Company had nil and $5.0 million (with a net book value of zero and $4.7 million, respectively) face value in trading securities, which consisted entirely of student loan auction rate securities (“SLARS”). These securities had long-term nominal maturities for which interest rates were historically reset through a Dutch auction process at pre-determined calendar intervals; a process which, prior to February 2008, had historically provided a liquid market for these securities. As a result of the liquidity issues experienced in the global credit and capital markets, these SLARS had multiple failed auctions, although the Company was successful in May 2011 in selling its final SLARS for $4.7 million, upon which the Company recorded a realized gain of $828,000.

ASC Topic 820 “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures” defines fair value as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date (an exit price). The standard outlines a valuation framework and creates a fair value hierarchy in order to increase the consistency and comparability of fair value measurements and the related disclosures.

10

Under ASC Topic 820, financial assets and liabilities are measured using inputs from the three levels of the fair value hierarchy. The three levels are as follows:

Level 1 inputs are unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the Company has the ability to access at the measurement date.

Level 2 inputs are other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly. Level 2 inputs include quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities that are not active, inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability (i.e., interest rates, yield curves, etc.), and inputs that are derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data by correlation or other means (market corroborated inputs).

Level 3 inputs are unobservable inputs that reflect our own assumptions about the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability. The Company would develop these inputs based on the best information available, including its own data.

In accordance with the fair value hierarchy described above, the following table shows the fair value of the Company’s securities available for sale that are required to be measured at fair value as of September 30, 2011:

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Results of Operations and Financial Condition

The following discussion of the Company’s operations and financial condition should be read in conjunction with the Financial Statements and notes thereto included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report.

In the following discussions, most percentages and dollar amounts have been rounded to aid presentation. Accordingly, all amounts are approximations.

Forward-Looking Information

This report contains forward looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.

Forward-looking statements include statements with respect to the Company’s beliefs, plans, objectives, goals, expectations, anticipations, assumptions, estimates, intentions, and future performance, and involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors, which may be beyond the Company’s control, and which may cause the Company’s actual results, performance or achievements to be materially different from future results, performance or achievements expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements.

11

All statements other than statements of historical fact are statements that could be forward-looking statements. The reader can identify these forward-looking statements through the Company’s use of words such as “may,” “will,” “can,” “anticipate,” “assume,” “should,” “indicate,” “would,” “believe,” “contemplate,” “expect,” “seek,” “estimate,” “continue,” “plan,” “project,” “predict,” “could,” “intend,” “target,” “potential,” and other similar words and expressions of the future. These forward-looking statements may not be realized due to a variety of factors, including, without limitation:

• the impact, if any, on the Company’s business, financial condition and results of operation arising from the appointment of the Provisional Liquidators over Grande;

• the decline in, and any further deterioration of, consumer spending for retail products, such as the Company’s products;

• the Company’s inability to resist price increases from its suppliers or pass through such increases to its customers;

• the loss of any of the Company’s key customers or reduction in the purchase of the Company’s products by any such customers;

• conflicts of interest that exist based on the Company’s relationship with Grande;

• the Company’s inability to improve and maintain effective internal controls or the failure by its personnel to comply with such internal controls;

• the Company’s inability to maintain its relationships with its licensees and distributors or the failure to obtain new licensees or distribution relationships on favorable terms;

• cash generated by operating activities represents the Company’s principal source of funding and therefore the Company depends on its ability to successfully manage its operating cash flows to fund its operations;

• the Company’s inability to anticipate market trends, enhance existing products or achieve market acceptance of new products;

• the Company’s dependence on a limited number of suppliers for its components and raw materials;

• the Company’s dependence on third party manufacturers to manufacture and deliver its products;

• changes in consumer spending and economic conditions;

• the failure of third party sales representatives to adequately promote, market and sell the Company’s products;

• the Company’s inability to protect its intellectual property;

• the effects of competition;

• changes in foreign laws and regulations and changes in the political and economic conditions in the foreign countries in which the Company operates;

• changes in accounting policies, rules and practices;

• the effects of the continuing appreciation of the renminbi and increases in costs of production in China;

• the other factors listed under “Risk Factors” in the Company’s Form 10-K, as amended, for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2011 and other filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

All forward-looking statements are expressly qualified in their entirety by this cautionary notice. The reader is cautioned not to place undue reliance on any forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date of this report or the date of the document incorporated by reference into this report. The Company has no obligation, and expressly disclaims any obligation, to update, revise or correct any of the forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise. Management has expressed its expectations, beliefs and projections in good faith and it believes it has a reasonable basis for them. However, management cannot assure the reader that its expectations, beliefs or projections will be achieved or accomplished.

The following table summarizes certain financial information for the three and six month periods ended September 30, 2011 (fiscal 2012) and September 30, 2010 (fiscal 2011) (in thousands):

Net Revenues — Net revenues for the second quarter of fiscal 2012 were $41.4 million as compared to $52.0 million for the second quarter of fiscal 2011, a decrease of $10.6 million or 20.4%. For the six month period of fiscal 2012, net revenues were $92.9 million as compared to $119.1 million for the six month period of fiscal 2011, a decrease of $26.2 million or 22.0%. Net revenues may be periodically impacted by adjustments made to the Company’s sales allowance and marketing support accrual to record unanticipated customer deductions from accounts receivable or to reduce the accrual by any amounts which were accrued in the past but not taken by customers through deductions from accounts receivable within a certain time period. In the aggregate, these adjustments had the effect of increasing net revenues and operating income by approximately $280,000 and $136,000 for the second quarters of fiscal 2012 and fiscal 2011, respectively, and approximately $533,000 and $267,000 for the six month periods of fiscal 2012 and fiscal 2011, respectively.

Net revenues are comprised of the sales of houseware and audio products which bear the Emerson^® brand name, as well as the licensing revenues derived from licensing the Emerson^®, HH Scott^® and Olevia^® brand names to licensees for a fee. The major elements which contributed to the overall decrease in net revenues were as follows:

i) Houseware product net sales decreased $9.2 million, or 19.8%, to $37.3 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2012 as compared to $46.5 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2011, principally driven by a decrease in sales of microwave ovens, which resulted from the discontinuation of one model by one of the Company’s largest retail customers beginning in December 2010, as well as decreases in sales of toaster ovens and coffee makers, partially offset by increases in sales of compact refrigerators and wine coolers. For the six month period of fiscal 2012, houseware product net sales were $84.6 million, a decrease of $23.5 million or 21.8%, from $108.1 million for the six month period of fiscal 2011, principally driven by a decrease in sales of microwave ovens, which resulted mainly from the discontinuation of the model mentioned above, as well as decreases in sales of toaster ovens and wine coolers, partially offset by increases in sales of compact refrigerators;

ii) Audio product net sales were $2.9 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2012 as compared to $4.2 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2011, a decrease of $1.3 million, or 30.1%, resulting from decreased audio sales volumes. For the six month period of fiscal 2012, audio product net sales were $5.7 million, a decrease of $2.5 million, or 29.8%, from $8.2 million in the six month period of fiscal 2011, primarily resulting from decreased audio sales volumes;

iii) Licensing revenues in the second quarter of fiscal 2012 were $1.2 million compared to $1.3 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2011, a decrease of $100,000 or 10.0%. Licensing revenues for the six month period of fiscal 2012 were $2.6 million as compared to $2.8 million for the six month period of fiscal 2011, a decrease of $200,000 or 9.0%.

13

Cost of Sales — In absolute terms, cost of sales decreased $8.9 million, or 19.4%, to $37.0 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2012 as compared to $45.9 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2011. Cost of sales, as a percentage of net revenues, was 89.4% and 88.3% in the second quarters of fiscal 2012 and fiscal 2011, respectively. In absolute terms, cost of sales decreased $20.8 million, or 20.1%, to $82.6 million for the six month period of fiscal 2012 as compared to $103.4 million for the six month period of fiscal 2011. Cost of sales, as a percentage of net revenues, was 88.9% and 86.8% for the six month periods of fiscal 2012 and fiscal 2011, respectively. Cost of sales as a percentage of net sales revenues less licensing revenues was 92.0% and 90.6% in the second quarters of fiscal 2012 and fiscal 2011, respectively. The increase in cost of sales as a percentage of net sales revenues less licensing revenues for the second quarter of fiscal 2012 as compared to the second quarter of fiscal 2011 was related to higher landed product costs as a percentage of selling price. Cost of sales as a percentage of net sales revenues less licensing revenues was 91.5% for the six month period of fiscal 2012 as compared to 88.9% for the six month period of fiscal 2011. The increase in cost of sales as a percentage of net sales revenues less licensing revenues for the second quarter of fiscal 2012 as compared to the second quarter of fiscal 2011 was related to higher landed product costs as a percentage of selling price, partially offset by year-over-year reductions in inventory valuation reserves.

Other Operating Costs and Expenses — As a percentage of net revenues, other operating costs and expenses were 0.7% in the second quarter of fiscal 2012 and 1.4% in the second quarter of fiscal 2011. In absolute terms, other operating costs and expenses decreased $410,000, or 57.6%, to $302,000 for the second quarter of fiscal 2012 as compared to $712,000 in the second quarter of fiscal 2011 as a result of lower warranty and returns processing costs. For the six month period of fiscal 2012, other operating costs were 0.7% of net revenues as compared to 0.8% of net revenues for the six month period of fiscal 2011. In absolute terms, other operating costs and expenses decreased $322,000, or 31.9%, to $0.7 million for the six month period of fiscal 2012 as compared to $1.0 million for the six month period of fiscal 2011 also resulting from lower warranty and returns processing costs.

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses (“S,G&A”) — S,G&A, as a percentage of net revenues, was 5.8% in the second quarter of fiscal 2012 as compared to 3.9% in the second quarter of fiscal 2011. S,G&A, in absolute terms, increased $0.4 million, or 16.4%, to $2.4 million for the second quarter of fiscal 2012 as compared to $2.0 million for the second quarter of fiscal 2011. The increase in S,G&A in absolute terms between the second quarter of fiscal 2012 and second quarter of fiscal 2011 was primarily due to higher legal expense associated with the Kayne litigation (see Note 9 — “Legal Proceedings — Kayne Litigation”). For the six month period of fiscal 2012, S,G&A was 4.4% of net revenues as compared to 3.3% for the six month period of fiscal 2011. In absolute terms, S,G&A increased $0.1 million, or 2.4%, to $4.1 million for the six month period of fiscal 2012 as compared to $4.0 million in the six month period of fiscal 2011. The increase in S,G&A in absolute terms between the six month periods of fiscal 2012 and 2011 was primarily due to higher legal expense associated with the Kayne litigation (see Note 9 — “Legal Proceedings — Kayne Litigation”).

Interest (Expense) Income, net — Interest expense, net, was $1,000 in the second quarter of fiscal 2012 as compared to interest income, net, of $4,000 in the second quarter of fiscal 2011. For the six month period of fiscal 2012, interest income, net was $30,000 as compared to $14,000 in the six month period of fiscal 2011.

Realized Gain on Sale of Marketable Security — Realized gain on sale of marketable security was nil for the second quarters of fiscal 2012 and fiscal 2011. For the six month period of fiscal 2012, realized gain on sale of marketable security was $828,000 as compared to nil for the six month period of fiscal 2011. The realized gain resulted from the sale in May 2011 of the Company’s last remaining auction rate security. See Note 10 — “Marketable Securities”.

(Benefit) Provision for Income Taxes was a benefit of $71,000 in the second quarter of fiscal 2012 as compared to a provision of $98,000 in the second quarter of fiscal 2011. The provision for income taxes was $1.3 million for the six month period of fiscal 2012 as compared to $1.6 million for the six month period of fiscal 2011.

Net income — As a result of the foregoing factors, the Company realized net income of $1.8 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2012 as compared to $3.2 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2011. For the six month periods of fiscal 2012 and 2011 the company realized net income of $5.1 million and $9.1 million, respectively.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

General

As of September 30, 2011, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of approximately $31.9 million, as compared to approximately $2.6 million at September 30, 2010. Working capital increased to $55.9 million at September 30, 2011 as compared to $34.2 million at September 30, 2010. The increase in cash and cash equivalents of approximately $29.3 million was due to net income generated by the Company of $11.9 million, reductions of inventory of $9.7 million, reductions in accounts receivable of $4.2 million and reductions in restricted cash of $1.5 million during the twelve months ended September 30, 2011. In addition, the Company netted cash proceeds of $2.2 million from the sale of its last remaining auction rate securities, after fully settling its outstanding loan obligation against them.

14

Cash flow used by operating activities was $10.0 million for the six months ended September 30, 2011, resulting primarily from increases in inventory and accounts receivable, partially offset by increased accounts payable and the net income generated during the period.

Net cash provided by investing activities was $4.7 million for the six months ended September 30, 2011 on the sale by the Company of its last remaining auction rate security (see Note 10 — “Marketable Securities”), partially offset by an increase in restricted cash.

Net cash used by financing activities was $2.5 million for the six months ended September 30, 2011, resulting from the $2.5 million payoff of the Company’s short-term loan upon the sale by the Company its last remaining auction rate security (see Note 10 — “Marketable Securities”).

Other Events and Circumstances Pertaining to Liquidity

On May 31, 2011, upon application of a major creditor, the High Court of Hong Kong appointed Provisional Liquidators over Grande, which is the Company’s majority stockholder. Following the appointment of the Provisional Liquidators over Grande, certain major factory suppliers, including Midea, which is the Company’s largest factory supplier, have significantly reduced the maximum amount of open credit lines available to the Company. At the factories’ request, the Company made accelerated payments in June and July of 2011 to reduce the balances owing from the Company on its open trade payable accounts with the respective factory suppliers to comply with such new credit terms. The Company relies on its cash on hand and cash generated by ongoing operations to manage its business.

Credit Arrangements

Letters of Credit — Beginning November 2010, the Company began utilizing Hang Seng Bank to issue letters of credit on behalf of the Company, as needed, on a 100% cash collateralized basis. At September 30, 2011, the Company had outstanding letters of credit totaling $667,000. A like amount of cash, which was posted by the Company as collateral against these outstanding letters of credit, at September 30, 2011, has been classified by the Company as Restricted Cash on the balance sheet.

Short-term Liquidity

During the three and six months ended September 30, 2011, products representing approximately 49% and 52% of net sales, respectively, were imported directly to the Company’s customers. The direct importation of product by the Company to its customers significantly benefits the Company’s liquidity because this inventory does not need to be financed by the Company.

The Company’s principal existing sources of cash are generated from operations. The Company believes that its existing cash balance and sources of cash will be sufficient to support existing operations over the next 12 months.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

There were no pronouncements made by the Financial Accounting Standards Board that relate to the Company or the industry in which the Company operates during the three months ended September 30, 2011.

Inflation, Foreign Currency, and Interest Rates

The Company’s exposure to currency fluctuations has been minimized by the use of U.S. dollar denominated purchase orders. The Company purchases virtually all of its products from manufacturers located in China.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

Not applicable.

15

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

(a) Disclosure controls and procedures.

The Company maintains disclosure controls and procedures (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d — 15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)) that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in its Exchange Act reports are recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to management, including the Company’s principal executive officer and principal financial officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Due to the inherent limitations of control systems, not all misstatements may be detected. These inherent limitations include the realities that judgments in decision-making can be faulty and that breakdowns can occur because of a simple error or mistake. Additionally, controls can be circumvented by the individual acts of some persons; by collusion of two or more people, or by management override of the control. Our controls and procedures can only provide reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the above objectives have been met.

The Company’s management concluded that disclosure controls and procedures (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act), as of September 30, 2011, are effective to reasonably ensure that information required to be disclosed in the reports that the Company files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms and that such information is accumulated and communicated to management, including the Company’s principal executive officer and principal financial officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

(b) Changes in Internal Controls Over Financial Reporting

There have been no changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the fiscal quarter ended September 30, 2011 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

PART II — OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1. Legal Proceedings

Kayne Litigation On July 7, 2011, the Company was served with an amended complaint (the “Complaint”) filed in the United States District Court for the Central District of California alleging, among other things, that the Company, certain of its present and former directors and other entities or individuals now or previously associated with Grande, intentionally interfered with the ability of the plaintiffs to collect on a judgment (now approximately $47 million) they had against Grande by engaging in transactions (such as the dividend paid to all shareholders in March 2010) which transferred assets out of the United States. The Complaint also asserts claims under the civil RICO statute and for alter ego liability. In the Company’s opinion, based on an initial review, the claims appear to be devoid of merit. Accordingly, on September 27, 2011, Emerson moved to dismiss the action for failure to state a claim (the “Motion”). The Court has scheduled oral argument for the Motion for December 19, 2011. In the interim, and in the event that the Motion is denied, Emerson intends to defend the action vigorously.
