INDEPENDENT AUDITORS’ REPORT

Administrative Committee
The Good Guys Deferred Pay
and Profit Sharing Plan

We have audited the accompanying statements of net assets available for benefits of The Good Guys Deferred Pay and Profit Sharing Plan (the “Plan”), as of September 30, 2002 and 2001, and the related statements of changes in net assets available for benefits for the years then ended. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Plan’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.

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.

In our opinion, such financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the net assets available for benefits of the Plan as of September 30, 2002 and 2001, and the changes in assets available for benefits for the years then ended in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Our audits were conducted for the purpose of forming an opinion on the basic financial statements taken as a whole. The supplemental schedules as listed in the table of contents are presented for the purpose of additional analysis and are not a required part of the basic financial statements, but supplementary information required by the Department of Labor’s Rules and Regulations for Reporting and Disclosure under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 (“ERISA”). The supplemental schedules are the responsibility of the Plan’s management. The supplemental schedules have been subjected to the auditing procedures applied in our audit of the basic 2002 financial statements and, in our opinion, are fairly stated in all material respects when considered in relation to the basic financial statements taken as a whole.

THE GOOD GUYS DEFERRED PAY
AND PROFIT SHARING PLAN

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
YEARS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2002 AND 2001


1.   SUMMARY DESCRIPTION OF PLAN
 
    The following description of The Good Guys Deferred Pay and Profit Sharing Plan (the “Plan”) provides only general information. Participants should refer to the Plan agreement for a more complete description of the Plan’s provision.
 
    General - The Plan is a defined contribution tax deferred savings plan available to all the employees of Good Guys, Inc. (the “Company”). On June 5, 2001, The Good Guys! Profit-Sharing Plan was merged into The Good Guys! Deferred Pay Plan with all investments transferred at fair market value. The merged plan was re-named The Good Guys Deferred Pay and Profit-Sharing Plan and the plan document was amended and re-stated. The Plan is subject to the provisions of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 (“ERISA”).
 
    Employees of the Company may voluntarily commence participation in the Plan on October 1st, January 1st, April 1st, or July 1st of each year provided they have completed 90 days of continuous service. Participants may contribute up to 20% of their annual compensation to the Plan. However, the sum of the participant’s contributions to the Plan and the Company’s contribution to the Plan on the participant’s behalf may not be in excess of the amount allowed for federal income tax purposes. The Participants’ contributions are made through payroll deductions. Additional contributions may be made to the Plan by the Company at the option of the Plan’s Administrative Committee.
 
    Participant Accounts - Each participant’s share of assets is segregated in an individual account and invested in accordance with the investment choice elected by the participant. The benefit to which a participant is entitled to is the benefit that can be provided from the participant’s vested account.
 
    Investment Options - Participants can invest in various investment funds selected by the Plan’s Administrative Committee. Funds include common shares of Good Guys, Inc., mutual funds, collective trusts and money market funds. Mutual fund investments vary and include growth and income funds, aggressive funds, and global international funds. The collective trusts are maintained by Merrill Lynch Trust Company which invests primarily in a broadly diversified portfolio of guaranteed investment contracts, bank investment contracts and other synthetic guaranteed investment contracts, as well as in obligations of U.S. government and U.S. government agency securities.
 
    Vesting - Participants are immediately vested in their voluntary contributions plus earnings thereon. Company profit sharing contributions vest ratably over five years of service and are allocated on a pro rata basis to plan participants eligible for an allocation on the last day of the Plan year. There have been no matching employer profit sharing contributions since September 30, 1999.
 
    Distribution of Benefits - Benefits are payable to employees upon termination of employment, normal retirement, total disability, death, or for financial hardship as defined by the Internal Revenue Service. Forfeitures of terminated participants’ non vested profit sharing contributions remain in the Plan and reduce future Company matching contributions, with remaining forfeitures reallocated to the accounts of remaining participants on the last day of the Plan year.

- 4 -


 

    Loans to Plan Participants - Under the terms of the Plan and subject to certain limitations as defined in the Plan agreement, participants may borrow against the amount of their vested accounts. Such loans are payable over periods of up to five years, or up to 30 years for the purchase of a primary residence, and bear interest at a rate equal to that charged by institutional lenders for similar loans at the time the loan is made. As of September 30, 2002, there are 151 loans, maturing from 2002 to 2032 with interest rates ranging between 4.75% and 10.0%.
 
    Plan Amendment or Termination - Although it has not expressed any intent to do so, the Company has the right to amend or terminate the Plan at any time, subject to the provisions of ERISA. Upon termination, all amounts credited to the participants’ accounts will either be distributed immediately or at a later date in accordance with Plan provisions.
 
    Expenses - Administrative expenses are allocated to all Plan participants.
 
2.   SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
 
    Basis of Accounting - The accompanying financial statements of the Plan are prepared on the accrual method of accounting.
 
    Accounting Estimates - 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 net assets available for benefits at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of additions to and deductions from net assets available for benefits during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
 
    The Plan invests in common stock of the Company and various mutual funds and money market funds. Investment securities, in general, are exposed to various risks, such as interest risk, credit, and overall market volatility. Due to the level of risk associated with certain investment securities, it is reasonably possible that changes in the values of investment securities will occur in the near term and that such changes could materially affect the amounts reported in the financial statements.
 
    Investment Valuation and Income Recognition - The Plan’s investments are stated at estimated fair value, which is determined by quoted market prices. The Plan holds units of a common collective trust fund, the underlying assets of which are guaranteed investment contracts valued at contract value. Participant loans are carried at amortized cost, which approximates fair value (see Note 4).
 
    Purchases and sales of securities are recorded on a trade-date basis. Interest income is recorded on an accrual basis. Dividends are recorded on the ex-dividend date.
 
    Benefits are recorded when paid.
 
    Reclassifications - Certain prior year balances have been reclassified to confirm with current year presentation.
 
3.   FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS WITH CONCENTRATIONS OF CREDIT RISK
 
    As required by Financial Accounting Standard No. 105, Disclosure of Information about Financial Investments with Off-Balance Sheet Risk and Financial Instruments with Concentrations of Credit Risk,” the following information about the risk characteristics associated with the Merrill Lynch Retirement Preservation Trust (the “Fund”) is presented.

- 5 -


 

    The Fund invests primarily in a broadly diversified portfolio of guaranteed investment contracts (“GIC”), bank investment contracts (“BIC”) and other synthetic guaranteed investment contracts issued by selected North American life insurance companies and U.S. banks, as well as in obligations of U.S. government and U.S. government agency securities. The Trust also invests in high-quality money market securities. The Trust is neither insured nor guaranteed by the U.S. government.
 
    The issuer of each investment contract undertakes to repay the principal amounts deposited pursuant to the contract plus accrued interest at fixed or variable rates as specified under its terms. The credit risk of the issuer of each investment contract is evaluated and monitored by the trustee. The Fund’s policy is to require that the investment contract issuer has ratings no lower than a rating of AAA from Standard & Poor’s or Aa2 from Moody’s at the time of purchase.
 
    The GIC issuer is subject to an analysis by the fund managers of asset quality, liquidity, management quality, surplus adequacy and profitability. Further, the issuer’s mortgage loan portfolio and bond holdings are scrutinized for exposure to high-risk bonds and geographical concentrations.
 
    A credit review of all issuers of GICs is performed periodically by the fund managers. The reviews are based upon the external rating services listed above. An investment contract may be identified as substandard or removed from the Fund depending on the degree of deterioration of the issuer’s rating. The Trustee may elect to segregate a contract from the Fund, resulting in separate accounting for the investment contract. As a result, participants admitted to the Fund after the contract has been segregated from the Fund will not be affected.
 
    The Fund’s policy is to review a variety of factors prior to selecting a BIC issuer for bidding on BICs. These factors include, but are not limited to, asset quality, liquidity, management quality, profitability and, as is the policy of the Trustee, the Trustee’s exposure to the issuing bank.
 
    The Trust’s investments in GICs, BICs, synthetic GICs and separate accounts are guaranteed solely by the issuers of the contracts and are not guaranteed by the Trust, Merrill Lynch, the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or the Federal Government.
 
4.   INVESTMENTS
 
    The Plan’s investments are held by Merrill Lynch Trust. Investments that represent 5% or more of the Plan’s net assets at September 30, 2002 and 2001 are separately identified in the following table:

Total
  $ 2,324,169     $ 5,564,279  
     
     
 

5.   INCOME TAX STATUS
 
    The Plan has been amended and restated (see Note 1) to conform with a prototype plan approved by the Internal Revenue Service. The Plan administrator and the Plan’s tax counsel believe that the Plan is currently designed and being

- 6 -


 

    operated in compliance with the applicable requirements of the Internal Revenue Code. Therefore, no provision for income taxes has been included in the Plan’s financial statements.
 
6.   RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
 
    Certain Plan investments are units of common collected funds managed by Merrill Lynch Trust. Merrill Lynch is the Trustee as defined by the Plan and, therefore, these transactions qualify as party-in-interest.
