LEATT CORPORATION
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)

Note 1 - Basis of presentation

The consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2013 was audited and appears in the Form 10-K filed by the Company with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 19, 2014. The consolidated balance sheet as of March 31, 2014 and the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss for the three months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013, changes in stockholders’ equity for the three months ended March 31, 2014, cash flows for the three months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013, and the related information contained in these notes have been prepared by management without audit. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (which include only normal recurring items) necessary to present fairly the financial position, results of operations and cash flows in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles as of March 31, 2014 and for all periods presented have been made. Interim operating results are not necessarily indicative of operating results for a full year.

Certain information and note disclosures normally included in the Company’s annual financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles have been condensed or omitted. While management of the Company believes that the disclosures presented are adequate to make the information not misleading, it is suggested that these condensed consolidated financial statements be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and notes thereto for the year ended December 31, 2013 as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission in the Company’s Form 10-K.

Note 2 - Inventory

Inventory is stated at the lower of cost or market. Cost is determined using the first-in first-out (FIFO) method. Inventory consists primarily of finished goods. Shipping and handling costs are included in the cost of inventory. In assessing the inventory value, the Company must make estimates and judgments regarding reserves required for product obsolescence, aging of inventory and other issues potentially affecting the saleable condition of products. In performing such evaluations, the Company utilizes historical experience as well as current market information. The reserve for obsolescence for the three months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013 was $221,177 and $0, respectively.

Note 3 - Intangible Assets

The Company’s intangible assets consist of acquired patents with an indefinite useful life and are thus not amortized. Intangible assets are carried at cost less impairment. Amortization expense for the three months ended March 31, 2014 was zero. There was no impairment of intangible assets at March 31, 2014.

Note 4 - Short-term Loan

The Company carries product liability insurance policies with a U.S. and South African-based insurance carrier. The Company finances payment of its short-term insurance premiums over the period of coverage, which is generally twelve months. The short-term loan is payable in monthly installments of $91,014 over an 11 month period at an APR of 2.647% .

Note 5- Income Taxes

The Company uses the asset and liability approach to account for income taxes. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on the differences between the financial statement carrying amounts and the income tax basis of assets and liabilities. A valuation allowance is applied against any net deferred tax asset if, based on available evidence, it is more likely than not that some or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. The provision for income taxes included taxes currently payable, if any, plus the net change during the period in deferred tax assets and liabilities recorded by the Company.

The Company applies the provisions of FASB ASC Topic 740-10, Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes (“Standard”), which provides that the tax effects from an uncertain tax position can be recognized in the consolidated financial statements only if the position is more likely than not of being sustained upon an examination by tax authorities. An uncertain income tax position will not be recognized if it has less than a 50% likelihood of being sustained. Additionally, the standard provides guidance on derecognition, classification, interest and penalties; accounting in interim periods, disclosure and transition, and any amounts when incurred would be recorded under these provisions.

The Company’s practice is to recognize interest and/or penalties related to income tax matters in income tax expense. As of March 31, 2014, the Company has no unrecognized tax benefits. The Company’s 2011 income tax return is under examination by the Internal Revenue Service.

Note 6 - Net Income Per Share of Common Stock

Basic net income per common share is computed using the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted net income per share is computed using the weighted–average number of common stock shares and dilutive potential common shares outstanding during the period. For the three months ended March 31, 2014, the Company had 328,000 potential common shares, consisting of 120,000 preferred shares and 208,000 stock options, outstanding that were anti-dilutive and therefore not included in diluted net income per share.

- 6 -


Note 7 - Litigation

In the ordinary course of business, the Company is involved in various legal proceedings involving product liability and personal injury and intellectual property litigation. The Company is insured against loss for certain of these matters. The Company will record contingent liabilities resulting from asserted and unasserted claims against it when it is probable that the liability has been incurred and the amount of the loss is reasonably estimable. The Company will disclose contingent liabilities when there is a reasonable possibility that the ultimate loss will exceed the recorded liability. While the outcome of currently pending litigation is not yet determinable, the ultimate exposure with respect to these matters cannot be ascertained. However, based on the information currently available to the Company, the Company does not expect that any liabilities or costs that might be incurred to resolve these matters will have a material adverse effect on the financial condition, results of operations, liquidity or cash flows of the Company.

Note 8 – Subsequent Events

The company has evaluated all subsequent events through the date the financial statements were released.

The Company sells its products to customers worldwide through a global network of distributors and retailers. Leatt also acts as the original equipment manufacturer for neck braces sold by other international brands.

The Company’s flagship products are based on the Leatt-Brace® system, a patented injection molded neck protection system owned by Xceed Holdings, designed to prevent potentially devastating injuries to the cervical spine and neck. The Company has the exclusive global manufacturing, distribution, sale and use rights to the Leatt-Brace®, pursuant to a license agreement between the Company and Xceed Holdings, a company owned and controlled by the Company’s Chairman and founder, Dr. Christopher Leatt. The Company also has the right to use apparatus embodying, employing and containing the Leatt-Brace® technology and has designed, developed, marketed and distributed other personal protective equipment using this technology, as well as its own developed technology, including the Company’s new body protection products which it markets under the Leatt Protection Range brand.

The Company’s research and development efforts are conducted at its research facilities, located at its executive headquarters in Cape Town, South Africa. The Company employs 5 full-time employees who are dedicated exclusively to research, development, and testing. The Company also utilizes consultants, academic institutions and engineering companies as independent contractors or consultants, from time to time, to assist it with its research and development efforts.

Our products are manufactured in China under outsource manufacturing arrangements with third-party manufacturers located there. The Company utilizes outside consultants and its own employees to ensure the quality of its products through regular on-site product inspections. Products purchased through international sales are usually shipped directly from our manufacturers’ warehouses or points of dispatch to customers or their import agents.

Leatt earns revenues through the sale of its products through approximately 60 distributors worldwide, who in turn sell its products to retailers.

Revenues – We earn revenues from the sale of our Protective gear comprising of braces, body armor and other products, parts and accessories in the United States and abroad. Revenues for the three months ended March 31, 2014 were $3.5 million, an 8% increase, compared to revenues of $3.2 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2013. For the three months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013, revenues associated with international customers were $1.97 million and $1.75 million, or 56% and 54% of revenues, respectively.

The following table sets forth our revenues by product line for the three months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013:

    Three Months Ended March 31,  
    2014     % of     2013     % of  
          Revenues           Revenues  
Neck Braces $  1,944,992     55%   $  1,817,374     56%  
Body Armor   1,390,851     40%     1,230,215     38%  
Other Products, Parts and Accessories   187,632     5%     200,458     6%  
  $  3,523,475     100%   $  3,248,047     100%  

Sales of our flagship Neck Brace accounted for $1.94 million and $1.82 million, or 55% and 56% of our revenues for the three-month periods ending March 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively. The increase in Neck Brace revenues earned from sales was primarily due to the successful introduction of the revolutionary Fusion 2.0 Junior and re-designed 5.5 Neck Brace products during the fourth quarter of 2013.

Our Body Armor products are comprised of chest protectors, full body protectors, body protection vests, back protectors, knee and elbow guards. Body Armor sales accounted for $1.39 million and $1.23 million or 40% and 38% of our revenues for the three-month periods ending March 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively. The 13% increase in Body Armor revenues was primarily due to an 11% increase in the volume of Body Armor products sold during the 2014 period over the volume of such products sold during the 2013 period. We believe that this increase in sales volume is attributable to the continued worldwide market acceptance of the Company's expanded Body Armor product range.

Our Other Products, Parts and Accessories are comprised of aftermarket support items required primarily to replace worn or damaged parts through our global distribution network as well as clothing, outerwear and accessories that include hats, jackets, bags, hydration kits and cooling garments. Other Products, Parts and Accessories sales accounted for $0.19 million and $0.2 million, or 5% and 6% of our revenues for the quarters ending March 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively. The decrease in our Other Products, Parts and Accessories is primarily due to decreased sales of aftermarket support items during the 2014 period.

Cost of Revenues and Gross Profit – Cost of revenues for the quarters ended March 31, 2014 and 2013 were $1.6 million and $1.7 million, respectively. Gross Profit for the quarters ended March 31, 2014 and 2013 were $1.9 million and $1.6 million, respectively, or 54% and 49% of revenues respectively. The increase in gross profit margin was primarily due to improved gross profit margins earned on Body Armor products. Although our Body Armor products continued to generate a lower gross margin than do Neck Brace products, and they represent 40% of the total company sales in the first quarter of 2014, as compared to 38% in the first quarter of 2013, the Company was able to improve the gross profit margin on these products as volumes increased and supplier arrangements improved. Additionally, the gross profit margin attributable to Neck Brace revenues in the United States improved due to the successful introduction of the Fusion 2.0 Junior and 5.5 Neck Brace. Neck Brace margins improved in the US due to the sale of our new neck brace products at higher margins, as well as a decrease in the need to close out older inventory as compared to the prior year period.

Product Royalty Income – Product royalty income is earned on sales to distributors that have royalty agreements in place as well as sales of licensed products by third parties that have licensing agreements in place. Product royalty income for the three months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013 were $20,815 and $37,462, respectively. The 44% decrease in product royalty income is due to decreased revenues from sales of licensed products by licensees.

Salaries and Wages – Salaries and wages for the quarters ended March 31, 2014 and 2013 were $527,046 and $579,140, respectively. This 9% decrease in salaries and wages is primarily due to the streamlining of the Company’s US operational, administrative and selling activities during the 2014 period.

Commissions and Consulting Expense – During the quarters ended March 31, 2014 and 2013, commissions and consulting expenses were $166,017 and $123,173, respectively. This 35% increase in commissions and consulting expenses is primarily due to increased commissions paid to the Company’s incentivized European sale staff during the 2014 period.

Professional Fees – Professional fees consist of costs incurred for audit, tax and regulatory filings and quarterly reporting requirements, as well as patent protection and litigation expenses incurred as the Company continues to expand. Professional fees for the quarters ended March 31, 2014 and 2013 were $334,056 and $364,595, respectively. This 8% decrease in professional fees is primarily due to decreased spending on patent maintenance fees. During the first quarter of 2013, significant patent costs were incurred due to the patent application process. These patents have since been fully filed or granted.

Advertising and Marketing – The Company places paid advertising in various motorsport magazines, online media and sponsors a number of events, teams and individuals to increase exposure. Advertising and marketing expenses for the quarters ended March 31, 2014 and 2013 were $285,394 and $326,637, respectively. The 13% decrease in advertising and marketing expenditures during the 2014 period is primarily due to the Company’s continued focus on online, digital asset based marketing campaigns that are more cost effective than traditional print advertising campaigns.

Office Rent and Expenses – Office rent and expenses for the quarters ended March 31, 2014 and 2013 were $60,118 and $73,403, respectively. The 18% decrease in office rent and expenses is primarily the result of the consolidation of additional warehouse space that was previously occupied by Two Eleven, the Company’s US subsidiary and distributor.

Research and Development Costs – These costs consists of the salaries of staff members that are directly involved in the research and development of innovative products, as well as the direct costs associated with developing these products. Research and development costs for the quarters ended March 31, 2014 and 2013, decreased to $281,292 from $288,858, respectively. The 3% decrease in research and development costs is a result of outsourcing of certain research and development functions that resulted in cost savings.

Bad Debt Expense – Bad debt expense for the three months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013 were $22,072 and $0 respectively. This 100% increase in bad debt expense relates primarily to the write off of a debt owing by a US customer that went out of business.

General and Administrative Expenses – General and administrative expenses consists of insurance, travel, merchant fees, telephone, office, courier and computer supplies. General and administrative expenses for the quarters ended March 31, 2014 and 2013 were $504,954 and $541,173, respectively. The 7% decrease in general and administrative expenses is primarily as a result of decreased spending on courier and communication costs during the 2014 period.

- 12 -


Depreciation Expense Depreciation Expense for the quarters ended March 31, 2014 and 2013 were $77,519 and $94,026, respectively. This 18% decrease in depreciation is primarily as a result of certain assets being fully depreciated during the 2014 period as they had reached the end of their economic useful lives.

Total Operating Expenses – Total operating expenses decreased by $132,537 in the three months ended March 31, 2014, or 6%, to $2.26 million, compared to $2.39 million in the 2013 period. This decrease is primarily due to decreased advertising and marketing expenses, salaries, general and administrative expenses and professional fees.

Net loss –The net loss after income taxes for the quarter ended March 31, 2014 was $340,886 down from the net loss after income taxes of $754,741 for the quarter ended March 31, 2013. This decrease in net loss is primarily due to the increased revenues and decreased cost of revenues and operating costs discussed above.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

At March 31, 2014, we had cash and cash equivalents of $0.7 million and $0.06 million of short-term investments. The following table sets forth a summary of our cash flows for the periods indicated:

          Mar-31  
    2014     2013  
Net cash provided by operating activities $  224,495   $  508,189  
Net cash used in investing activities $  (88,530 ) $  (27,540 )
Net cash used in financing activities $  (282,267 ) $  (266,760 )
Effect of exchange rate changes on cash and cash equivalents $  10,864   $  (41,021 )
Net (decrease) increase in cash and cash equivalents $  (135,438 ) $  172,868  
Cash and cash equivalents at the beginning of period $  835,012   $  667,671  
Cash and cash equivalents at the end of period $  699,574   $  840,539  

Cash decreased by $135,438, or 16%, for the three months ended March 31, 2014. The primary sources of cash for the three months ended March 31, 2014 were decreased accounts receivables of $922,346 and decreased prepaid expenses and other assets of $249,455. The primary uses of cash for the three months ended March 31, 2014 was a net loss of $340,886, increased inventories of $452,285, decreased accounts payable of $274,304 and repayment of short-term loan of $282,267. As of March 31, 2014, we did not have any credit facilities or significant amounts owed to third party lenders.

The Company is currently meeting its working capital needs through cash on hand as well as internally generated cash from operations. Management believes that its current cash and cash equivalent balances, along with the net cash generated by operations are sufficient to meet its anticipated operating cash requirements for at least the next twelve months. There are currently no plans for any major capital expenditures in the next twelve months. Our long-term financing requirements depend on our growth strategy, which relates primarily to our desire to increase revenue both domestically as well as internationally.

Obligations under Material Contracts

Pursuant to our Licensing Agreement with Xceed Holdings, we pay Xceed Holdings 4% of all sales revenue billed and received by the Company, on a quarterly basis based on sales of the previous quarter. In addition, pursuant to a separate license agreement between the Company and Mr. De Villiers, the Company is obligated to pay a royalty fee of 1% of all our billed and received sales revenue, in quarterly installments, based on sales of the previous quarter, to a trust that is beneficially owned and controlled by Mr. De Villiers.

Pursuant to a Premium Finance Agreement, dated October 11, 2013, between the Company and AFCO Acceptance Corporation “AFCO,” the company is obligated to pay AFCO an aggregate sum of $1,001,151 in eleven payments of $91,014, at a 2.647% annual interest rate, commencing on November 1, 2013 and ending on September 1, 2014. Any late payment during the term of the agreement will be assessed a late penalty of 5% of the payment amount due, and in the event of default AFCO has the right to accelerate the payment due under the agreement. As at March 31, 2014, the Company had not defaulted on its payment obligations under this agreement.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

Our discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations are based upon our consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The preparation of these financial statements 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 revenues and expenses during the reporting period.

There have been no material changes in our critical accounting policies or critical accounting estimates since December 31, 2013. We have not adopted any accounting policies since December 31, 2013 that have or will have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements. For further discussion of our accounting policies see the “Summary of Significant Accounting Policies” in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements, as of and for the year ended December 31, 2013 included in our annual report on Form 10-K filed for the period, as well as the notes in this Form 10-Q.

We have identified the following as the items that require the most significant judgment and often involve complex estimation: revenue recognition, estimating allowances for doubtful accounts receivable, inventory valuation, impairment of long-lived assets and accounting for income taxes.

Revenue and Cost Recognition - All manufacturing of Leatt products is performed by third party subcontractors in China. The Company's products are sold worldwide to a global network of distributors and dealers, and directly to consumers when there are no dealers or distributors in their geographic area (collectively the "customers"). Revenues from product sales are recognized when earned, net of applicable provisions for discounts and returns and allowances in the event of product defect. Revenue is considered to be realized or realizable and earned when all of the following criteria are met: title and risk of loss have passed to the customer, persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, delivery has occurred, the price is fixed and determinable and collectability is reasonably assured. Our distributor payment terms range from pre-payment in full to 60 days after shipment and subsequent sales of our products by distributors have no effect on the amount and timing of payments due to us. Furthermore, products purchased by distributors may not be returned to us in the event that any such distributor relationship is terminated.

Since the Company (through its wholly owned subsidiary) serves as the distributor of Leatt products in the United States, the Company records its revenue and related cost of revenue for its product sales in the United States upon shipment of the merchandise to the dealer or to the ultimate consumer when there is no dealer in the geographic area and the sales order was received directly from, and paid by, the ultimate consumer. Since the Company (through its South African branch) serves as the distributor of Leatt products in South Africa, the Company records its revenue and related cost of revenue for its product sales in South Africa upon shipment of the merchandise from the branch to the dealer. International sales (other than in South Africa) are generally drop-shipped directly from the third party manufacturer to the international distributors.

Revenue and related cost of revenue is recognized at the time of shipment from the manufacturer's port when the shipping terms are Free On Board ("FOB") shipping point, Cost and Freight ("CFR") or Cost and Insurance to named place ("CIP") as legal title and risk of loss to the product pass to the distributor. Sales to all customers (distributors, dealers and consumers) are generally final; however, in limited instances, product may be returned due to product quality issues. Historically, returns due to product quality issues have not been material and there have been no distributor terminations that resulted in product returns. Cost of revenues also includes royalty fees associated with sales of Leatt-Brace products.

Product royalty income is recorded as the underlying product sales occur, in accordance with the related licensing arrangements.

Allowance for Doubtful Accounts Receivable - Accounts receivable consist of amounts due to the Company from normal business activities. Credit is granted to substantially all distributors on an unsecured basis. We continuously monitor collections and payments from customers and maintain an allowance for doubtful accounts receivable based upon historical experience and any specific customer collection issues that have been identified. In determining the amount of the allowance, we are required to make certain estimates and assumptions. Accounts receivable balances that are still outstanding after we have used reasonable collection efforts are written off as uncollectible. While such credit losses have historically been minimal, within our expectations and the provisions established, we cannot guarantee that we will continue to experience the same credit loss rates that we have in the past. A significant change in the liquidity or financial position of any of our significant customers could have a material adverse effect on the collectability of our accounts receivable and our future operating results.

Inventory Valuation – Inventory is stated at the lower of cost or market. Cost is determined using the first-in first-out (FIFO) method. Inventory consists primarily of finished goods. Shipping and handling costs are included in the cost of inventory. In assessing the inventory value, we make estimates and judgments regarding reserves required for product obsolescence, aging of inventory and other issues potentially affecting the saleable condition of products. In performing such evaluations, we utilize historical experience as well as current market information. The reserve for obsolescence was $221,177 as of March 31, 2014 and the addition to the reserve was $89,522 and $0 for the quarters ended March 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively.

- 14 -


Impairment of Long-Lived Assets – Our long-lived assets include property and equipment. We evaluate our long-lived assets for recoverability whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that an asset may be impaired. In evaluating an asset for recoverability, we estimate the future cash flow expected to result from the use of the asset and eventual disposition. If the expected future undiscounted cash flow is less than the carrying amount of the asset, an impairment loss, equal to the excess of the carrying amount over the fair value of the asset, is recognized. We have determined there was no impairment charge during the quarters ended March 31, 2014 and 2013.

Income Taxes - As part of the process of preparing our consolidated financial statements, we are required to estimate our income tax provision (benefit) in each of the jurisdictions in which we operate. This process involves estimating our current income tax provision (benefit) together with assessing temporary differences resulting from differing treatment of items for tax and accounting purposes. These differences result in deferred tax assets and liabilities, which are included within our consolidated balance sheets. We regularly evaluate our ability to recover the reported amount of our deferred income taxes considering several factors, including our estimate of the likelihood of the Company generating sufficient taxable income in future years during the period over which the temporary differences reverse.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In April 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued an accounting standards update providing new guidance on the requirements for reporting a discontinued operation. The new guidance changes the criteria for reporting discontinued operations and enhances the reporting requirements for discontinued operations. Under the new guidance, a discontinued operation must represent a strategic shift that has or will have a major effect on an entity's operations and financial results. The revised standard will allow an entity to have certain continuing cash flows or involvement with the component after the disposal, and requires expanded disclosures. The standard is effective for reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2014. Management does not anticipate that the adoption of this standard will have a significant impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements.

Inflation

Inflationary factors such as increases in the cost of our sales and overhead costs may adversely affect our operating results. Although we do not believe that inflation has had a material impact on our financial position or results of operations to date, a high rate of inflation in the future may have an adverse effect on our ability to maintain current levels of gross margin and selling, general and administrative expenses as a percentage of net sales if the selling prices of our products do not increase with these increased costs.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

As of March 31, 2014, we do not have any off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on its financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources that is material to its stockholders.
