SUPER VISION INTERNATIONAL, INC.
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)
1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES:
PRINCIPLES OF CONSOLIDATION AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Super
Vision International, Inc. and its wholly owned subsidiary Oasis
Waterfalls, LLC (collectively, the "Company"). All significant
inter-company balances and transactions have been eliminated.
On October 18, 1999, Super Vision International, Inc. entered into an
Asset Purchase Agreement with Oasis Falls International, Inc. and Maas
Industries to acquire substantially all of the assets of these
businesses in the amount of $132,812, in exchange for 31,250 shares of
the Company's Class A Common Stock, par value $.001 per share. The
assets acquired include inventory, tooling, machinery and certain
intangible assets relating to tooling and intellectual property rights.
Proforma consolidated results of operations were not prepared as if the
acquisition had occurred at the beginning of fiscal year 1999 since the
acquisition was not significant. The acquisition has been accounted for
under the purchase method of accounting with assets acquired recorded
at fair market value as of the effective acquisition date, and the
operating results of the acquired business included in the Company's
consolidated financial statements from that date. The excess of the
purchase price over the fair value of the net assets acquired
(goodwill) aggregated approximately $26,000, and is being amortized on
a straight-line basis over 7 years.
In the opinion of the Company, the accompanying unaudited condensed
consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments, consisting
only of normal recurring accruals necessary to present fairly the
Company's consolidated financial position, results of operations and
cash flows for the periods presented. The results of operations for the
interim periods presented are not necessarily indicative of the results
to be expected for the full year.
The condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in
conjunction with the financial statements and the related disclosures
contained in the Company's Form 10-KSB dated March 29, 2000, filed with
the Securities and Exchange Commission.
BUSINESS
The Company is engaged in the design, manufacture and marketing of
SIDE-GLOW(R) and END GLOW(R) fiber optic lighting cables, light
sources, waterfalls and "point-to-point" fiber optic signs and
displays. The Company's products have a wide variety of applications in
the signage, swimming pool, architectural, advertising and retail
industries.
USE OF ESTIMATES
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting
principles generally accepted in the United States requires management
to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of
assets and liabilities and disclosure 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

1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED):
RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT
Research and development costs to develop new products are charged to
expense as incurred.
ADVERTISING
Advertising costs, included in selling, general and administrative
expenses, are expensed when the advertising first takes place.
RECLASSIFICATIONS
Certain prior years amounts have been reclassified to conform to the
current year's presentations. These reclassifications had no impact on
operating results previously reported.
CASH EQUIVALENTS
Temporary cash investments with an original maturity of three months or
less are considered to be cash equivalents.
INVESTMENTS
Marketable equity securities and debt securities are classified as
available-for-sale. Available-for-sale securities are carried at fair
value, with the unrealized gains and losses, net of tax, reported in a
separate component of stockholders' equity. The amortized costs of debt
securities in this category is adjusted for amortization of premiums
and accretion of discounts to maturity. Such amortization is included
in investment income. Realized gains and losses and declines in value
judged to be other-than-temporary on available-for-sale securities are
included in investment income. The cost of securities sold are based on
the specific identification method. Interest and dividends on
securities classified as available-for-sale are included in investment
income. There were no material unrealized gains or losses on securities
at June 30, 2000 or December 31, 1999.
At June 30, 2000 investments were comprised of U.S. Corporate
Securities and equity securities of approximately $996,000 and
$381,000, respectively. The investment in U.S. Corporate Securities
matures in 2001.
RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
In December 1999, the Securities and Exchange Commission issued Staff
Accounting Bulletin No. ("SAB 101"), "Revenue Recognition in Financial
Statements". SAB 101 summarizes the SEC's views in applying generally
accepted accounting principles to revenue recognition in financial
statements. The Company is required to adopt SAB 101 in the fourth
quarter of fiscal 2000. Management does not expect the adoption of SAB
101 to have a material effect on the Company's operations or financial
position.

1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED):
RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS - CONTINUED
In April 2000, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued FASB
Interpretation No.44, Accounting for Certain Transactions Involving
Stock Compensation, an interpretation of APB Opinion No. 25. Among
other issues, that interpretation clarifies the definition of employees
for purposes of applying Opinion No. 25, the criteria for determining
whether a plan qualifies as a non-compensatory plan, the accounting
consequence of various modifications to the terms of a previously fixed
stock option or award and the accounting for an exchange of stock
compensation awards in a business combination. This interpretation is
effective July 1, 2000, but certain conclusions in the interpretation
cover specific events that occur after either December 15, 1998 or
January 12, 2000. To the extent that this interpretation covers events
occurring during the period after December 15, 1998, or January 12,
2000, but before the effective date of July 1, 2000, the effect of
applying this interpretation is recognized on a prospective basis from
July 1, 2000. The Company is currently reviewing stock grants to
determine the impact, if any, that may arise from implementation of
this interpretation, although the Company does not expect the impact,
if any, to be material to the Company's financial statements.
2. INVENTORIES:
Inventories at June 30, 2000 and December 31, 1999 consisted of the

6. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS
On November 23, 1998, the Company entered into a Stock Purchase
Agreement with Cooper Lighting, Inc. ("Cooper"), a subsidiary of Cooper
Industries, Inc. (a New York Stock Exchange Company trading under the
symbol "CBE"), pursuant to which the company sold to Cooper 250,369
shares of its Class A Common Stock, for a purchase price of $2,000,000.
In addition, the Company entered into a Distributorship Agreement (the
"Distributorship Agreement") with Cooper and Cooper Industries,
(Canada), Inc. ("Cooper Canada"), another subsidiary of Cooper
Industries, Inc., pursuant to which Cooper and Cooper Canada were
collectively granted the exclusive distribution rights in the United
States and Canada (the "Territory's Exclusive Market") to the Company's
fiber optic products in the commercial, residential, industrial,
institutional, and public transportation markets, including, but not
limited to, any and all lighting applications in or related to
architectural lighting, accent lighting, down lighting, display cases,
landscaping, confinement, explosion-proof, clean rooms, traffic
signals, signage, outdoor area and emergency /exit lighting. In
consideration for these rights, Cooper and Cooper Canada collectively
agreed, in accordance with the terms of the Distributorship Agreement,
to purchase up to $47,075,000 of the Company's products over a
five-year period.
Effective July 10, 2000, Cooper notified the Company that Cooper did
not meet its minimum purchase commitment for the year ended December
31, 1999 and will not meet its purchase commitment for the year ending
December 31, 2000, and further advised the Company that Cooper will not
make up the deficiencies pursuant to its option in the Distributorship
Agreement to maintain its exclusive sales rights in the Territory's
Exclusive Market for the Company's products. Upon this notification,
the Company exercised its option to not excuse the deficiency and
terminate Cooper's exclusive rights to distribute, market and sell the
Company's products within the Territory's Exclusive Market. Effective
midnight on October 31, 2000, Cooper's exclusive rights for sale of the
Company's products in the Territory's Exclusive Market will terminate.

Item 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
The following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with the
unaudited Condensed Financial Statements and Notes thereto appearing elsewhere
in this report.
The following discussion contains certain forward-looking statements within the
meaning of the "safe-harbor" provisions of the Private Securities Litigation
Reform Act of 1995, as amended, the attainment of which involve various risks
and uncertainties. Forward-looking statements may be identified by the use of
forward-looking terminology such as "may", "will", "should", "expect", "plan",
"believe", "estimate", "anticipate", "continue", "predict", "forecast",
"intend", "potential", or similar terms, variations of those terms or the
negative of those terms. The Company's actual results may differ materially from
those described in these forward-looking statements due to, among other factors,
competition in each of the Company's product areas, dependence on suppliers, the
Company's limited manufacturing experience, the condition of the international
marketplace and the evolving nature of the Company's fiber optic technology.
Additional information concerning these or other factors which could cause
actual results to differ materially from those contained or projected in, or
even implied by, such forward-looking statements is contained in this report and
also from time to time in the Company's other Securities and Exchange Commission
filings. Although the Company believes that the assumptions underlying the
forward-looking statements are reasonable, any of the assumptions could prove
inaccurate and, therefore, there can be no assurance that the forward-looking
information will prove to be accurate.
THREE MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2000 VS. 1999
Results of Operations
Revenues are derived primarily from the sale of fiber optic Side Glow(R) and End
Glow(R) cable and light sources, point of purchase fiber optic signs and
displays and sales of fiber optic landscape and task lighting systems. Total
revenues for the three months ended June 30, 2000 were approximately $2,750,000
as compared to approximately $2,341,000 for the three months ended June 30,
1999, an increase of approximately $409,000 or 18%. The increase was primarily
the result of growth in the pool and spa market, up approximately $665,000 or
147% from the prior year revenues due to the Company's exclusive marketing and
sales partner in the pool and spa market, Hayward Pool Products, Inc
("Hayward"). Increased revenues in the pool and spa market were principally
offset by declines in the architectural, international and sign markets of
approximately $192,000, $89,000 and $78,000 respectively. Oasis Waterfalls, LLC,
contributed approximately $116,000 in revenue for the quarter ended June 30,
2000.
Gross margin for the quarter ended June 30, 2000 was approximately $748,000 or
27% as compared to approximately $699,000 or 30% for the three months ended June
30, 1999. The gross margin is dependent, in part, on product mix, which
fluctuates from time to time. The increase in gross margin from the second
quarter of 1999 was primarily due to increased gross margin generated from the
sale of Oasis Waterfalls, LLC products of approximately $63,000. The reduction
in gross margin percentage is mainly due to a higher mix of sales to Hayward,
which typically generate lower gross margin, due to discount levels established
in the Company's current distributor agreement with Hayward. In addition the
Company increased the reserve for potentially slow moving / obsolete inventory
in the amount of $125,000 in the quarter ended June 30, 2000. Excluding the
effect of the inventory adjustment, gross margin for the quarter ended June 30,
2000 was approximately $873,000 or 32%.
Selling, general and administrative expenses were approximately $852,000 during
the three months ended June 30, 2000 as compared to approximately $836,000 for
the same period ended 1999, an increase of approximately $16,000 or 2%. The
increase was principally due to selling, general and administrative expense
associated with Oasis Waterfalls, LLC of approximately $14,000.
Research and development costs were approximately $108,000 during the three
months ended June 30, 2000 as compared to approximately $150,000 during the same
period in 1999, a decrease of approximately 28%. The reduction was primarily due
to the cancellation of three product development efforts in mid 1999.
10
Interest expense of approximately $110,000 for the quarter ended June 30, 2000
as compared to approximately $113,000 for the same period last year relates to
the capital lease in connection the Company's facility in Orlando, Florida.
Other income of $25,968 consists primarily of proceeds received from the
sub-lease of the warehouse portion of the facility.
The Company has provided a full valuation allowance against income tax benefits
resulting from losses incurred on operations and as a result there was no
provision for income tax during the three months ended June 30, 2000 and 1999,
respectively.
The net loss for the three months ended June 30, 2000 was approximately
$(250,000), and $(0.10) per basic and diluted common share, as compared to a net
loss of approximately $(372,000), and $(0.15) per basic and diluted common
share, for the quarter ended June 30, 1999. The reduction in loss is primarily
due to higher gross margin from increased sales and reduced operating expenses.
SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2000 VS. 1999
Results of Operations
Total revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2000 were approximately
$5,277,000 as compared to approximately $4,669,000 for the six months ended June
30, 1999 an increase of approximately $608,000 or 13%. The increase was
primarily the result of growth in the pool and spa market, up approximately
$1,269,000 or 130% from the prior year revenues due to the Company's exclusive
marketing and sales partner in the pool and spa market, Hayward. Increased
revenues in the pool and spa market were principally offset by reductions in the
architectural and international markets of approximately $597,000 and $215,000
respectively. Oasis Waterfalls, LLC, contributed approximately $205,000 in
revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2000.
Gross margin for the six months ended June 30, 2000 was approximately $1,480,000
or 28% as compared to approximately $1,576,000 or 34% for the six months ended
June 30, 1999. The gross margin is dependent, in part, on product mix, which
fluctuates from time to time. The decline in gross margin from the first six
months of 1999 was primarily due to an increase of $125,000 in the reserve for
potentially slow moving / obsolete inventory in the second quarter of 2000 as
well as a higher mix of pool related product sales to Hayward. Hayward receives
a significant discount off list price based on the Company's current distributor
agreement with Hayward. Excluding the effect of the inventory adjustment, gross
margin was approximately $1,605,000 or 30%.
Selling, general and administrative expenses were approximately $1,446,000
during the six months ended June 30, 2000 as compared to approximately
$1,464,000 for the same period ended 1999, a decrease of approximately $18,000
or 1%.
Research and development costs were approximately $209,000 during the six months
ended June 30, 2000 as compared to approximately $294,000 during the same period
in 1999, a reduction of 29%. The decline was primarily due to the cancellation
of three product development efforts in mid 1999.
Interest expense of approximately $220,000 for the six months ended June 30,
2000, as compared to approximately $224,000 for the same period last year,
relates to the capital lease in connection the Company's facility in Orlando,
Florida.
Other income of approximately $42,000 consists primarily of funds received in
connection with a supplier settlement in favor of the Company as well as
proceeds received from the sub-lease of the warehouse portion of the facility.
The Company has provided a full valuation allowance against income tax benefits
resulting from losses incurred on operations and as a result there was no
provision for income tax during the six months ended June 30, 2000 and 1999
respectively.
The net loss for the six months ended June 30, 2000 was approximately
$(265,000), or $(0.10) per basic and diluted common share, as compared to net
loss of approximately $(341,000), and $(0.14) per basic and diluted common
share, for the six months ended June 30, 1999. The decrease in loss is primarily
due to reduced operating expenses partially offset by lower gross margin.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
At June 30, 2000 the Company had working capital of approximately of $4,861,000.
Net cash provided by operations amounted to approximately $123,000 for the six
months ended June 30, 2000 compared to approximately $294,000 of cash used by
operating activities for the first half of 1999. The most significant source of
cash was generated by the net reduction of approximately $361,000 in trade
accounts receivable, primarily through the increase in cash collections during
the first six months of 2000. The most significant use of cash was the net
decrease of approximately $265,000 in accounts payable due to the timing of
supplier payments. Net cash used in investing activities for the six months
ended June 30, 2000 amounted to approximately $92,000 mainly due to capital
expenditures for the purchase of computer equipment, furniture and fixtures,
tooling and additional trade show booth material. Net cash provided by financing
activities for the six months ended June 30, 2000 amounted to approximately
$35,000. Proceeds in the amount of approximately $34,000 from the exercise of
employee stock options were offset by payments of approximately $23,000 on the
capital lease obligation related to the Company facility.
COOPER RELATIONSHIP
On November 23, 1998, the Company entered into a Stock Purchase Agreement with
Cooper Lighting, Inc. ("Cooper"), a subsidiary of Cooper Industries, Inc. (a New
York Stock Exchange Company trading under the symbol "CBE"), pursuant to which
the Company sold to Cooper 250,369 shares of its Class A Common Stock, for a
purchase price of $2,000,000. In addition, the Company entered into a
Distributorship Agreement (the "Distributorship Agreement") with Cooper and
Cooper Industries, (Canada), Inc. ("Cooper Canada"), another subsidiary of
Cooper Industries, Inc., pursuant to which Cooper and Cooper Canada were
collectively granted the exclusive distribution rights in the United States and
Canada (the "Territory's Exclusive Market") to the Company's fiber optic
products in the commercial, residential, industrial, institutional, and public
transportation markets, including, but not limited to, any and all lighting
applications in or related to architectural lighting, accent lighting, down
lighting, display cases, landscaping, confinement, explosion-proof, clean rooms,
traffic signals, signage, outdoor area and emergency /exit lighting. In
consideration for these rights, Cooper and Cooper Canada collectively agreed, in
accordance with the terms of the Distributorship Agreement, to purchase up to
$47,075,000 of the Company's products over a five-year period.
Effective July 10, 2000, Cooper notified the Company that Cooper did not meet
its minimum purchase commitment for the year ended December 31, 1999 and will
not meet its purchase commitment for the year ending December 31, 2000, and
further advised the Company that Cooper will not make up the deficiencies
pursuant to its option in the Distributorship Agreement to maintain its
exclusive sales rights in the Territory's Exclusive Market for the Company's
products. Upon this notification, the Company exercised its option to not excuse
the deficiency and terminate Cooper's exclusive rights to distribute, market and
sell the Company's products within the Territory's Exclusive Market. Effective
midnight on October 31, 2000, Cooper's exclusive rights for sale of the
Company's products in the Territory's Exclusive Market will terminate.
As a result of this termination the Company will market and distribute its
product through a network of individual lighting agents covering the United
States and Canada. The Company has begun the process of recruiting lighting
agents for the distribution of the Company's products related to the
architectural lighting market and to date the Company has reached agreements to
rehire 54 lighting agents throughout the United States and Canada.
As a result of this change the Company does not expect any significant reduction
in its sales of fiber optics products in the architectural market.
