EXPLANATORY NOTE

     Applica Incorporated (“Applica”) is filing this amendment to its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarterly period ended March 31, 2004, originally filed on May 7, 2004, in order to comply with EITF Issue No. 95-22, “Balance Sheet Classification of Borrowings Outstanding under Revolving Credit Agreements that Include Both a Subjective Acceleration Clause and a Lock-Box Arrangement,” (“EITF 95-22”). This amendment to the original Form 10-Q amends and restates the original Form 10-Q, but does not reflect events occurring after the original filing of the Form 10-Q. All information contained in this amendment and the original Form 10-Q is subject to updating and supplementing as provided in the periodic reports filed subsequent to the original filing date with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Additionally, Applica is adding a footnote to present three reportable segments: Household Products, Professional Personal Care Products and Manufacturing, as the result of comments from the staff (the “Staff”) of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) in connection with the Staff’s normal periodic review of Applica’s filings. Based on the fact that Applica was in the process of filing an amendment to its Form 10-Q for the three month period ended March 31, 2004, Applica decided to present the segment disclosure footnote in its amended 10-Q for the three month period ended March 31, 2004. This Form 10-Q/A contains no changes to the Consolidated Statements of Operations or Cash Flows, although this Form 10-Q/A does include changes in the Consolidated Balance Sheets and the additional disclosures as described below:

     Part I—Item 1. Financial Statements — Consolidated Balance Sheets — Liabilities and Stockholders’ Equity — Total current liabilities and long-term debt, less current maturities at March 31, 2004 and December 31, 2003 have been restated from amounts originally reported as follows (note: caption “Short-term debt” was added):

Liabilities and Shareholders’ Equity

     Part I—Item 1. Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements — 1. Summary of Accounting Policies — Added footnote disclosure to reflect restatement of the Consolidated Balance Sheets as of March 31, 2004 and December 31, 2003 to properly classify Applica’s revolving credit facility pursuant to EITF 95-22.

     Part I—Item 1. Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements — Added Footnote 8 — Business Segments and Geographic Area Information — Presentation of three reportable segments: Household Products, Professional Personal Care Products and Manufacturing.

     Part I—Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Results of Operations and Financial Condition — Capital Resources — Added disclosure concerning the reclassification of Applica’s revolving credit facility pursuant to EITF 95-22.

     Part I — Item 4. — Controls and Procedures — Added disclosure regarding the existence of a significant deficiency in internal control over financial reporting as of March 31, 2004 related to the presentation on its balance sheet of the borrowings under its credit facility and determination that such significant deficiency did not rise to the level of a material weakness in its internal control over financial reporting. Because Applica corrected its presentation of long-term and short-term debt in the fourth quarter of 2004, Applica believes that it corrected this significant deficiency.

     Part I — Item 4. — Limitations on the Effectiveness of Controls — Added a statement that the disclosure controls and procedures are designed to provide reasonable assurance of achieving their objectives.

Interim Reporting

     The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Applica Incorporated and its subsidiaries (“Applica”). All significant intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated. The unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in conformity with Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X of the Securities and Exchange Commission and therefore do not include information or footnotes necessary for a complete presentation of financial position, results of operations and cash flows in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. However, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals), which, in the opinion of management, are necessary for a fair presentation of the financial statements, have been included. Operating results for the period ended March 31, 2004 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2004 due to seasonal fluctuations in Applica’s business, changes in economic conditions and other factors. For further information, please refer to the Consolidated Financial Statements and Notes thereto contained in Applica’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2003.

Restatement

     Applica has restated its Consolidated Balance Sheets as of March 31, 2004 and December 31, 2003 to properly classify its revolving credit facility as a current liability in accordance with EITF Issue No. 95-22, “Balance Sheet Classification of Borrowings Outstanding under Revolving Credit Agreements that Include Both a Subjective Acceleration Clause and a Lock-Box Arrangement,” (“EITF 95-22”). This restatement has no impact on Applica’s results of operations or cash flows for the three months ended March 31, 2004. The revolving credit facility is classified as a current liability in accordance with EITF 95-22 because the credit agreement contains a subjective acceleration clause and contractual provisions that require Applica’s cash receipts to be used to repay amounts outstanding under the revolving credit facility.

Reclassifications

     Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified for comparability.

Inventories

     Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or market; cost is determined by the first-in, first-out method. Inventories are comprised of the following:

Stock Based Compensation

     At March 31, 2004, the Company had four active stock based compensation plans. The Company accounts for stock-based compensation using the intrinsic value method. Accordingly, compensation cost for stock options issued is measured as the excess, if any, of the fair value of the Company’s common stock at the date of grant over the exercise price of the options. The Company’s net earnings (loss) and earnings (loss) per share would have been changed to the pro forma amounts indicated below had compensation cost for the stock option plans and non-

qualified options issued to employees been determined based on the fair value of the options at the grant dates consistent with the method of SFAS 123.

     There was no stock-based employee compensation expense included in net earnings (loss) in the quarters ending March 31, 2004 and 2003.

     The above pro forma disclosures may not be representative of the effects on reported net earnings (loss) for future periods as options vest over several years and Applica may continue to grant options to employees.

     In accordance with the requirements of SFAS 123, the fair value of each option grant was estimated on the date of grant using a binomial option-pricing model with the following weighted-average assumptions used for grants in 2004 and 2003, respectively: no dividend yield; expected volatility ranging from 64.1% to 82.7%; risk-free interest rates of 3.0%; and expected holding periods of four years.

Comprehensive Income

     The components of other comprehensive income, net of tax, were as follows:

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

     In January 2003, the FASB issued Interpretation No. (“FIN”) 46, “Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities,” which establishes criteria to identify variable interest entities (“VIE”) and the primary beneficiary of such entities. An entity that qualifies as a VIE must be consolidated by its primary beneficiary. All other holders of interests in a VIE must disclose the nature, purpose, size and activity of the VIE as well as their maximum exposure to losses as a result of involvement with the VIE. FIN 46 was revised in December 2003 and is effective for financial statements of public entities that have special-purpose entities, as defined, for periods ending after December 15, 2003. For public entities without special-purpose entities, it is effective for financial statements for periods ending after March 15, 2004. Applica does not have any special-purpose entities, as defined. The adoption of FIN 46 did not have a material effect on Applica’s financial statements.

     On March 31, 2004, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued a proposed statement, Share-Based Payment, that addresses the accounting for share-based payment transactions (for example, stock options and awards of restricted stock) in which an employer receives employee-services in exchange for equity securities of the company or liabilities that are based on the fair value of the company’s equity securities. This proposal, if finalized as proposed, would eliminate use of APB Opinion No. 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees, and generally would require such transactions be accounted for using a fair-value-based method and recording compensation expense rather than optional pro forma disclosure of what expense amounts might be. The proposal, if approved, would substantially amend FASB Statement No. 123, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation. Because of the timing of the proposal and the uncertainty of whether it will be adopted substantially as proposed, management has not completed its review of the proposal or assessed its potential impact on Applica.

     A variety of proposed or otherwise potential accounting standards are currently under study by standard-setting organizations and various regulatory agencies. Because of the tentative and preliminary nature of these proposed standards, management has not determined whether implementation of such proposed standards would be material to Applica’s consolidated financial statements.

Loss on Early Extinguishments of Debt

     In February 2004, Applica redeemed $4.25 million of its 10% Senior Subordinated Notes due 2008. The notes were redeemed at prices between 103.25% and 103.33% of the principal amount, plus accrued interest. The cost of the redemption of the notes includes $187,000 in prepayment premiums and the write-off of deferred financing costs related to the redemption.

Vendor Consideration

     Applica’s supplier of vacuum packaging products has agreed to reimburse Applica $4.0 million for a portion of the costs of litigating the Tilia matter. The reimbursement is evidenced by a note receivable bearing interest at a rate of 6% and is payable in equal quarterly installments of $200,000, plus interest, over five years. As the reimbursement is coming from a vendor and the payment thereof is indirectly associated with future purchases from the vendor, the amount to be received has been offset by a related deferred credit to be recognized over the five-year period as a reduction of future product costs.

Earnings Per Share

     Basic shares for the three-month periods ended March 31, 2004 and 2003 were 23,718,256 and 23,500,555, respectively. Included in diluted shares for the three-month period ended March 31, 2003 are common stock equivalents relating to options of 165,312. All common stock equivalents have been excluded from the diluted per share calculations in the three-month period ended March 31, 2004 because their inclusion would have been anti-dilutive. Potential common stock equivalents for the three-month period ended March 31, 2003 were options to purchase 2,423,435 shares of common stock, with exercise prices ranging from $4.90 to $31.69.

     Tilia Matters. In April 2004, Applica and its U.S. operating subsidiary, Applica Consumer Products, Inc., entered into a license and settlement agreement with Tilia, Inc. and Tilia International, Inc. to resolve patent infringement litigation. As part of the license and settlement agreement, Applica agreed to pay Tilia royalties for using its vacuum sealing technology.

     Other Matters. Applica is subject to other legal proceedings, product liability claims and other claims that arise in the ordinary course of our business. In the opinion of management, the amount of ultimate liability with respect to such matters, if any, in excess of applicable insurance coverage, is not likely to have a material effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations or liquidity. However, as the outcome of litigation or other claims is difficult to predict, significant changes in the estimated exposures could occur.

     For the three months ended March 31, 2004, the activity in the accrued repositioning and other charges was as follows:

     Accrued liabilities relating to the 2001 repositioning, recall and other charges were as follows:

     In the fourth quarter of 2003, management determined that an accrual related to the product recall was no longer required and $4.1 million of such accrual was reversed and was included as a reduction of cost of sales.

     For the three months ended March 31, 2003, the activity in the accrued repositioning and other charges was as follows:

     The amounts accrued in connection with the repositioning and other charges are reflected in accrued expenses in the accompanying balance sheets.

     Anasazi Partners, L.P. is a partnership owned 50% by Applica that invested in public and privately owned securities. In the fourth quarter of 2002, Anasazi Partners engaged an investment banker to pursue exit strategies for Anasazi’s equity investment in ZonePerfect Nutrition Company. As part of this process, a valuation of the investment was performed. Based on this valuation, in the first quarter of 2003, Anasazi increased the fair value of

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements — Continued

the investment by approximately $75.0 million, resulting in equity in net earnings of unconsolidated joint venture of $37.5 million in the first quarter 2003 statement of operations.

     In July 2003, ZonePerfect was sold for approximately $160.0 million in cash, $20.0 million of which is being held in escrow as of March 31, 2004. Payment of $10.0 million of the amount held in escrow is contingent on the performance of a negotiated matter and no portion thereof has been reflected in the net earnings of Anasazi. The funds held in escrow are to be released to the sellers, including Anasazi, at 18 and 24 months from date of closing, subject to any adjustments to the escrowed funds for breaches of representations and warranties. Management of Anasazi believes that Anasazi is entitled to receive additional amounts with respect to the contingent negotiated matter. Upon agreement with the purchaser of ZonePerfect, or release of the related funds from escrow, Applica expects to record additional earnings of approximately $3.7 million.

     In July 2003, the general partner of Anasazi Partners L.P. began the process of dissolving the partnership by distributing the remaining individual investments to the partners. In the first quarter of 2004, Applica received total cash distributions of $1.2 million in connection with the planned liquidation of Anasazi. At March 31, 2004, Applica’s interest in Anasazi represents its share of the escrow funds.

     The components of Applica’s intangible assets subject to amortization are as follows:

Amortization expense for intangible assets during the three months ended March 31, 2004 and 2003 was $0.4 million and $2.2 million, respectively.

     The following table provides information regarding estimated amortization expense for each of the following years ended December 31:

     On March 30, 2004, Applica entered into an operating lease for new corporate office space in South Florida totaling 110,000 square feet. The term of the lease commences on May 1, 2004 and is for 125 months. Rent is abated for the first five months of the lease term. Applica is also responsible for its pro rata share of the operating expenses, which are currently estimated at $19,250 per month.

     Future minimum payments under this lease are as follows:

     Applica’s domestic subsidiaries are guarantors of Applica’s 10% Senior Subordinated Notes due 2008. The following condensed consolidating financial information presents the results of operations, financial position and cash flows of Applica Incorporated (on a stand alone basis), the guarantor subsidiaries (on a combined basis), the non-guarantor subsidiaries (on a combined basis) and the eliminations necessary to arrive at the consolidated results of Applica. The results of operations and cash flows presented below assume that the guarantor subsidiaries were in place for all periods presented. Applica and guarantor subsidiaries have accounted for investments in their respective subsidiaries on an unconsolidated basis using the equity method of accounting. The guarantor subsidiaries are wholly owned subsidiaries of Applica and have fully and unconditionally guaranteed the notes on a joint and several basis. The notes contain certain covenants which, among other things, restrict the ability of the guarantor subsidiaries to make distributions to Applica Incorporated. Applica has not presented separate financial statements and other disclosures concerning the guarantor subsidiaries and non-guarantor subsidiaries because it has determined they would not be material to investors.

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

     As used in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, “we,” “our,” “us,” the “Company” and “Applica” refer to Applica Incorporated and its subsidiaries, unless the context otherwise requires.

     The following discussion and analysis and the related financial data present a review of the consolidated operating results and financial condition of Applica for the three-month periods ended March 31, 2004 and 2003. This discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with the Consolidated Financial Statements and Notes thereto contained in Applica’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2003.

General

     Applica is a marketer, distributor and manufacturer of a broad range of branded and private-label small electric consumer goods. Applica markets, distributes and manufactures kitchen products, home products, pest control products, pet care products and personal care products. Applica markets products under licensed brand names, such as Black & Decker®, its own brand names, such as Windmere®, LitterMaid® and Applica®, and other private-label brand names. Applica’s customers include mass merchandisers, specialty retailers and appliance distributors primarily in North America, Latin America and the Caribbean.

     We operate manufacturing facilities in China and Mexico. In 2003 and 2002, approximately 63% and 76%, respectively, of the products sold by Applica were manufactured in such facilities. In addition, we manufacture products for other consumer products companies, which we refer to as contract manufacturing. Management is currently focused on restructuring our manufacturing facilities to focus on more innovative, proprietary products. We are outsourcing more commodity-type products to strategic sourcing partners in China, which will significantly decrease the percentage of products manufactured at our own facilities.

Forward Looking Statement Disclosure

     This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act and Section 21E of the Exchange Act. Such statements are indicated by words or phrases such as “anticipates,” “projects,” “management believes,” “Applica believes,” “intends,” “expects,” and similar words or phrases. Such forward-looking statements are subject to certain risks, uncertainties or assumptions and may be affected by certain other factors, including the specific factors set forth below.

     You should carefully consider the following risk factors, together with the other information contained in our annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2003, in evaluating us and our business before making an investment decision regarding our securities:

15

     Should one or more of these risks, uncertainties or other factors materialize, or should underlying assumptions prove incorrect, actual results, performance, or achievements of Applica may vary materially from any future results, performance or achievements expressed or implied by the forward-looking statements. All subsequent written and oral forward-looking statements attributable to Applica or persons acting on our behalf are expressly qualified in their entirety by the cautionary statements in this paragraph. You are cautioned not to place undue reliance on forward-looking statements. Applica undertakes no obligation to publicly revise any forward-looking statements to reflect events or circumstances that arise after the filing of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

Outlook

     We intend to update this “Outlook” section in our Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q and Annual Reports on Form 10-K subsequently filed with the SEC; however, Applica disclaims any intention or obligation to publicly announce the results of any revisions to any of the forward-looking statements contained herein to reflect future events or developments.

     Management anticipates that sales for the year ended December 31, 2004 will be between $740.0 million and $765.0 million. The increased sales volume is expected to result from:

16

     Management expects gross margins for the full year to expand in 2004 as a result of:

     This improvement will be partly offset by expected higher costs of raw materials, such as copper, steel, aluminum and plastic, and inbound freight costs compared to 2003. Management anticipates that gross margins will be between 34% and 35% in 2004.

     Management expects that selling, general and administrative operating expenses will increase in amount in 2004, but will remain flat as a percentage of sales at approximately 29%. Variable cost categories will increase because of higher sales volume. Additionally, royalties on Black and Decker® branded products will increase and management is planning to increase advertising and promotional spending. We experienced higher outbound freight costs in the first quarter, which we expect to continue during the remainder of 2004. These expenses will be partially offset by lower amortization expense related to the Black & Decker® tradename.

     Management anticipates that interest expense will continue to decrease to approximately $9.0 million for 2004.

     Capital expenditures are planned to be approximately $21.0 million, driven by new products and our information technology initiative. Management expects that capital expenditures for our manufacturing operations will decrease in 2004.

     Earnings per diluted share for 2004 is expected to be between $0.80 and $0.90.

     For the three months ended June 30, 2004, we believe that sales will be between $155.0 million and $165.0 million and earnings per diluted share will range between zero and a loss of $0.05 per share. April 2004 sales increased 29% over sales in April 2003.

Results of Operations

Three Months Ended March 31, 2004 Compared To Three Months Ended March 31, 2003

     Net Sales. Sales for Applica increased by $11.3 million to $132.5 million, an increase of 9.3% over the first quarter of 2003. The increase was largely the result of growth in sales of Black & Decker® branded products, which benefited from better point-of-sale, as well as retailers that began the year with lower inventory levels. For the quarter:

These increases were partially offset by:

     We expect sales of Black & Decker® branded products to continue to increase for the remainder of 2004 as the result of the introduction of several new products, including the Home Café™ single-cup brewing system and the Tide^TM Buzz^TM ultrasonic stain removal system, both of which were co-developed with The Procter & Gamble Company and launched in the second quarter of 2004. Additionally, in the second quarter of 2004, the majority of the pest control products will be marketed under the Black & Decker® brand name and we will introduce new items under the Gizmo™ sub brand.

     Gross Profit. Applica’s gross profit margin decreased to 28.3% for the three months ended March 31, 2004 as compared to 30.5% for the same period in 2003. The gross profit margin decrease was primarily attributed to:

     Recently, we have experienced significant increases in prices for raw materials, including plastic, steel, aluminum and copper, as well as in inbound freight costs. Management expects this trend to continue in 2004 and to continue to negatively affect gross profit margins.

     Selling, General and Administrative Expenses.

          Operating Expenses. Operating expenses increased $5.2 million, or 13.6%, for the three months ended March 31, 2004 to $43.5 million as compared to the first quarter in 2003. Such expenses increased as a percentage of sales to 32.9% from 31.6% in the 2003 period primarily as the result of:

     Management expects increased royalties and outbound freight expenses to continue throughout 2004.

     These increases in operating expenses were partially offset by lower amortization of intangible assets of $1.9 million related to the write-off of the unamortized book value of an intangible asset related to the Black & Decker tradename in the fourth quarter of 2003.

     Repositioning and Other Charges. In the first quarter of 2004, Applica settled an outstanding litigation matter for $125,000 and reversed the remaining accrual of $563,000 related to such litigation.

18

     Interest Expense. Interest expense decreased by $1.8 million, or 45.6%, to $2.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2004, as compared to $3.9 million for the first quarter of 2003, as the result of lower debt levels. Management expects interest expense for the remainder of 2004 will continue to be lower than 2003.

     Loss On Early Extinguishment of Debt. In February 2004, Applica redeemed $4.25 million of its 10% Senior Subordinated Notes due 2008. The notes were redeemed at prices between 103.25 and 103.33% of the principal amount, plus accrued interest. The cost of the redemption of the notes also included $187,000 in prepayment premiums and write-off of deferred financing costs related to the redemption.

     Taxes. Applica’s tax expense is based on an estimated annual aggregation of the taxes on earnings of each of its foreign and domestic operations. For the first quarter of 2004, Applica used an effective tax rate of 40% and reflected a tax benefit based upon the expectation of taxable income for the year.

     The earnings of subsidiaries in Canada, Mexico and Latin America (other than Chile) are generally taxed at rates comparable to or higher than 35%, the United States statutory rate. In addition, commencing on January 1, 2002, the earnings of Applica’s Hong Kong subsidiary are also taxed at the United States statutory rate of 35% due to Applica’s intent not to permanently reinvest the earnings outside of the United States. Applica does not make tax provisions for the undistributed earnings of its foreign subsidiaries that it expects will be permanently reinvested in its operations outside of the United States.

     Earnings Per Share. Basic shares for the three-month periods ended March 31, 2004 and 2003 were 23,718,256 and 23,500,555, respectively. Included in diluted shares for the three-month period ended March 31, 2003 are common stock equivalents relating to options of 165,312. All common stock equivalents have been excluded from the diluted per share calculations in the three-month period ended March 31, 2004 because their inclusion would have been anti-dilutive. Potential common stock equivalents for the three-month period ended March 31, 2003 were options to purchase 2,423,435 shares of common stock, with exercise prices ranging from $4.90 to $31.69.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Liquidity

     Applica’s financial condition and liquidity remained adequate as of March 31, 2004. Cash and cash equivalents were $6.1 million at March 31, 2004 and March 31, 2003. Any excess cash in the United States is typically used to pay down Applica’s borrowings under its domestic credit facility on the next business day.

     Operating Activities. Operations generated cash of $29.4 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2004, as compared to $21.6 million net cash provided in the quarter ended March 31, 2003. The cash generated in the quarter was primarily the result of seasonal decreases in accounts receivable.

     Investing Activities. For the quarter ended March 31, 2004, investing activities used cash of $3.1 million compared to $6.2 million of cash used in the same period in 2003. Cash flow from investing activities benefited from lower capital expenditures of $2.0 million and cash proceeds of $1.2 million received from Anasazi Partners L.P., our 50% joint venture.

     Applica makes capital expenditures primarily for new product development and maintenance of its manufacturing facilities. In addition, Applica is undergoing a major upgrade of its information technology infrastructure, including the installation of a new enterprise resource planning system. Capital expenditures for 2004 are expected to be approximately $21.0 million. Applica plans to fund such capital expenditures from cash flow from operations and, if necessary, borrowings under its credit facilities.

     Financing Activities. Net cash used in financing activities was $32.9 million in the first quarter of 2004, compared to cash used of $17.6 million in the 2003 period. The cash used in financing reflects the pay down of borrowings under our lines of credit, as well as the redemption of $4.25 million of our 10% notes at a redemption price of $4.4 million.

     We will continue to have cash requirements to support seasonal working capital needs and capital expenditures, to pay interest and to service debt.

19

     Management continues to review its opportunities to repurchase additional 10% notes depending on several factors, including availability under Applica’s credit facility, the market price of the 10% notes and projected cash flow.

Capital Resources

     Applica’s primary sources of short-term capital are its cash flow from operations and borrowings under its credit facilities. Applica’s current domestic credit facility is a $205 million asset-based senior secured revolving credit facility maturing December 28, 2005. As of May 5, 2004, Applica was borrowing approximately $39.7 million under the facility and had approximately $59.4 million available for future cash borrowings, based on Applica’s collateral value. Advances under the facility are primarily based upon percentages of outstanding eligible accounts receivable and inventories. The credit facility includes a $10.0 million sublimit for the issuance of letters of credit, with approximately $500,000 outstanding under the limit as of May 5, 2004.

     At Applica’s option, interest accrues on the loans made under the credit facility at either:

     Management expects its borrowing margins to decrease to 2.00% (for LIBOR loans) and zero percent (for Base Rate loans) during May 2004. This decrease is a result of a decrease in our leverage ratio.

     Swing loans up to $15.0 million bear interest at the Base Rate plus a specified margin (determined based on Applica’s leverage ratio and was 0.35% at March 31, 2004 and at May 5, 2004), which was 4.35% at March 31, 2004 and 4.35% at May 5, 2004.

     Applica has classified the borrowings under the credit facility as a current liability in accordance with Emerging Issues Task Force (EITF) 95-22 “Balance Sheet Classifications of Borrowings Outstanding under Revolving Credit Agreements That Include Both a Subjective Acceleration Clause and a Lock-Box Arrangement.” Despite such classification, Applica has the ability and the intent to maintain these obligations for longer than one year.

     Certain of Applica’s foreign subsidiaries have approximately $14.5 million in trade finance lines of credit, payable on demand, which are secured by the subsidiaries’ tangible and intangible property, and in some cases, a guarantee by the parent company, Applica Incorporated. As of March 31, 2004, there were no amounts outstanding under the working capital lines and $179,000 outstanding under the letter of credit lines. As of May 5, 2004, there were $7.8 million outstanding under the working capital lines and approximately $400,000 under the letter of credit lines.

     In addition, Applica has senior subordinated notes bearing interest at a rate of 10%, payable semiannually, and mature on July 31, 2008. The notes are general unsecured obligations of Applica Incorporated and rank subordinate in right of payment to all senior debt of Applica and rank pari passu in right of payment to all future subordinated indebtedness of Applica. The notes may be redeemed at the option of Applica, in whole or in part, at various redemption prices. During 2003, we repurchased $65.0 million of these notes. In February 2004, we repurchased an additional $4.25 million of 10% notes. As of March 31, 2004, the outstanding principal balance was $60.7 million.

     On September 28, 2002, Applica entered into credit approved receivables purchasing agreements with CIT Group/Commercial Services, Inc. The agreements allow Applica to transfer to CIT, without recourse, approved receivables of specified customers under certain circumstances, including the bankruptcy of covered customers. Applica remains the servicer of the approved receivables and pays fees based upon a percentage of the gross face amount of each approved receivable. These arrangements are strictly for the purpose of insuring selected receivables. At March 31, 2004 and 2003, $9.4 million and $10.0 million of accounts receivable were insured under this arrangement.

     In April 2002, Applica Consumer Products, Inc. entered into a five-year $6.0 million mortgage loan on Applica’s executive offices located in Miami Lakes, Florida. The loan bears interest at an annual rate of 7.25%, with monthly principal and interest payments based on a 20-year amortization. A final balloon payment is due at the end of the term. The loan is secured by a mortgage on the property and the building located thereon. In November 2003, Applica entered into an agreement to sell its executive offices located in Miami Lakes for $9.3 million, resulting in an estimated gain before taxes of approximately $1.5 million. The sale is scheduled to close in October 2004. At the time of closing, approximately $6.0 million of these proceeds will be used to repay the outstanding mortgage on the property. On March 30, 2004, Applica entered into a ten-year operating lease for new corporate office space in South Florida. The lease contains provisions for annual rental escalations of 2% beginning in October 2005.

     At March 31, 2004, debt as a percent of total capitalization was 30.6%, as compared to 42.5% at March 31, 2003. The improvement was primarily the result of a $73.2 million decrease in debt year-over-year.

     Applica’s ability to make scheduled payments of principal of, or to pay the interest on, or to refinance, its indebtedness, or to fund planned capital expenditures, and marketing expenses will depend on its future performance. Based upon the current level of operations and anticipated margin improvements and revenue growth, we believe that cash flow from operations and available cash, together with available borrowings under its credit facility and other facilities, will be adequate to meet our future liquidity needs for at least the next several years. However, business may not generate sufficient cash flow from operations, our anticipated revenue growth and operating improvements may not be realized and future borrowings may not be available under the credit facility in an amount sufficient to enable us to service our indebtedness, including the outstanding 10% notes, or to fund our other liquidity needs. In addition, we may not be able to effect any needed refinancing on commercially reasonable terms or at all.

     Applica is also involved in certain ongoing litigation. See Part II. “Item 1 — Legal Proceedings.”

Use of Estimates and Critical Accounting Policies

     The preparation of Applica’s 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 at the date of the financial statements and revenues and expenses during the period. Future events and their effects cannot be determined with absolute certainty; therefore, the determination of estimates requires the exercise of judgment. Actual results inevitably will differ from those estimates, and such differences may be material to our financial statements. Management continually evaluates its estimates and assumptions, which are based on historical experience and other factors that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. These estimates and Applica’s actual results are subject to the risk factors listed in “Forward Looking Statement Disclosure” above.

     Management believes that the following may involve a higher degree of judgment or complexity:

     Collectibility of Accounts Receivable. Applica’s allowance for doubtful accounts is based on management’s estimates of the creditworthiness of its customers, current economic conditions and historical information, and, in the opinion of management, is believed to be an amount sufficient to respond to normal business conditions. Management sets specific allowances for customers in bankruptcy and other allowances for the remaining customers based upon historical collection experience. Should business conditions deteriorate or any major customer default on its obligations to Applica, this allowance may need to be significantly increased, which would have a negative impact upon Applica’s results of operations. Applica reviews its accounts receivable aging on a regular basis to determine if any of the receivables are past due. Applica writes off all uncollectible trade receivables against its allowance for doubtful accounts.

     Inventory Allowances. Applica establishes an allowance based on historical experience and specific allowances when it is apparent that the expected realizable value of an inventory item falls below its original cost. A charge to operations results when the estimated net realizable value of inventory items declines below cost. Management regularly reviews Applica’s investment in inventories for declines in value.

     Income Taxes. Significant management judgment is required in developing Applica’s provision for income taxes, including the determination of foreign tax liabilities, deferred tax assets and liabilities and any valuation allowances that might be required to be applied against the deferred tax assets. At March 31, 2004 and 2003,

21

Applica had deferred tax assets in excess of deferred tax liabilities of $71.7 million and $66.9 million, respectively. Applica determined that it was more likely than not that $64.3 million and $56.7 million of such assets will be realized, resulting in a valuation allowance of $7.4 million and $10.2 million as of March 31, 2004 and 2003, respectively. Applica evaluates its ability to realize its deferred tax assets on a quarterly basis and adjusts the amount of its valuation allowance, if necessary. Applica operates within multiple taxing jurisdictions and is subject to audit in those jurisdictions. Because of the complex issues involved, any claims can require an extended period to resolve.

     Goodwill. On an annual basis, management assesses the composition of Applica’s assets and liabilities, as well as the events that have occurred and the circumstances that have changed since the most recent fair value determination. If events occur or circumstances change that would more likely than not reduce the fair value of goodwill below its carrying amount, goodwill will be tested for impairment. Applica selected June 30^th as the annual impairment test date and will recognize an impairment loss if the carrying value of the asset exceeds the fair value determination as of June 30^th of each year.

     Long-Lived Assets. Applica reviews long-lived assets and certain identifiable intangibles held and used for possible impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. In evaluating the fair value and future benefits of its intangible assets, management performs an analysis of the anticipated undiscounted future net cash flows of the individual assets over the remaining amortization period. Applica recognizes an impairment loss if the carrying value of the asset exceeds the expected future cash flows.

     Accruals for Product Liability Claims and Litigation. Applica is subject to various legal proceedings, product liability claims and other claims in the ordinary course of its business. Management estimates the amount of ultimate liability, if any, with respect to such matters in excess of applicable insurance coverage based on historical claims experience and current claim amounts, as well as other available facts and circumstances. As the outcome of litigation is difficult to predict and significant estimates are made with regard to future events, significant changes from estimated amounts could occur.

     Other Estimates. During the years, Applica has made significant estimates in connection with specific events affecting its expectations. These have included accruals relating to the consolidation of its operations, plant closings, reduction in employees and product recalls. Applica makes a number of other estimates in the ordinary course of business relating to sales returns and allowances, warranty accruals, and accruals for promotional incentives. Historically, past changes to these estimates have not had a material impact on our financial condition but have significantly affected results of operations from time to time. However, circumstances could change which may alter future expectations.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

Interest Rate Risk Management

     Applica is exposed to the impact of interest rate changes. Applica’s objective is to manage the impact of interest rate changes on earnings and cash flows and on the market value of its borrowings. Applica maintains fixed rate debt as a percentage of its net debt between a minimum and maximum percentage, which is set by policy.

     It is Applica’s policy to enter into interest rate risk management transactions only to the extent considered necessary to meet its objectives as set forth above. Applica does not enter into interest rate risk management transactions for speculative purposes.

     Outstanding as of March 31, 2004 were interest rate management contracts on approximately $80 million notional principal amount with a fair value of $975,849. The market value represents the amount Applica would receive upon exiting the contracts at March 31, 2004 and was determined based on quotes obtained from Applica’s financial institutions. The market value related to the fair value of interest rate risk management contract is included as prepaid asset and an increase the bonds. The market value related to the cash flow interest rate risk management contracts is included as an offset to prepaid asset and other comprehensive income. Applica does not intend to exit these contracts at this time.

     Significant interest rate risk management instruments held by Applica as of March 31, 2004 included pay-fixed and pay-floating swaps. The pay-fixed swaps effectively convert floating rate obligations to fixed-rate

22

instruments. The pay-floating swap effectively converts medium term fixed-rate obligations to LIBOR-rate indexed variable-rate instruments. All swaps have maturity dates that mirror the maturity date of the underlying hedged transaction. For the period ending March 31, 2004, Applica did not discontinue any hedges due to the probability that the original underlying forecasted transaction would not occur.

     The impact of interest rate risk management activities on pre-tax income during the quarter ended March 31, 2004 was not material.

Foreign Exchange Risk Management

     Applica transacts business globally and is subject to risks associated with changing foreign exchange rates. Applica’s objective is to reduce earnings and cash flow volatility associated with foreign exchange rate changes to allow management to focus attention on core business issues and challenges. By policy, Applica maintains hedge coverage between minimum and maximum percentages of its forecasted foreign exchange exposures for periods not to exceed 18 months. The gains and losses on these contracts offset changes in the value of the related exposures.

     It is Applica’s policy to enter into foreign currency transactions only to the extent considered necessary to meet its objectives as set forth above. Applica does not enter into foreign currency transactions for speculative purposes.

     Outstanding as of March 31, 2004 were $22.8 million notional of contracts to purchase and/or sell foreign currency forward with a negative fair market value of $553,828. The market value represents the amount Applica would pay upon exiting the contracts at March 31, 2004 and was determined based on quotes obtained from Applica’s financial institutions. This amount is included in long-term liabilities and other comprehensive income as of March 31, 2004. Applica does not intend to exit these contracts at this time.

     Applica enters into various contracts that change in value as foreign exchange rates change to protect the value of its existing foreign currency assets and liabilities, commitments and forecasted foreign currency revenues. Applica uses option strategies and forward contracts that provide for the sale of foreign currencies to hedge forecasted revenues and expenses. Applica also uses forward contracts to hedge foreign currency assets and liabilities. While these hedging instruments are subject to fluctuations in value, such fluctuations are offset by changes in the value of the underlying exposures being hedged. The principal currencies hedged are the Mexican peso and Canadian dollar.

Additional Information

     For additional information, see Item 7A. “Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk” in Applica’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2003.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures.

     Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures. Applica has carried out an evaluation under the supervision of management, including the President and Chief Executive Officer and the Senior Vice President and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of its disclosure controls and procedures. Based on that evaluation, Applica’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that, as of March 31, 2004, Applica’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the company in the reports filed or submitted by it under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the rules and forms of the SEC, and include controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by Applica in such reports is accumulated and communicated to management, including the President and Chief Executive Officer and the Senior Vice President and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures.

     On February 11, 2005, Applica announced that it was restating its consolidated balance sheets for fiscal years 2003 and 2002 and for the first three quarters of 2004 to reclassify as short-term debt the borrowings under its senior credit facility with Bank of America, N.A., which had previously been classified as long-term debt, in order to comply with EITF Issue No. 95-22, Balance Sheet Classification of Borrowings Outstanding under Revolving Credit Agreements That Include both a Subjective Acceleration Clause and a Lock-Box Arrangement. In the fourth quarter of 2004, the Company corrected the presentation of the borrowings under the credit facility on its

23

consolidated balance sheets. Applica has reflected such reclassification in its restated consolidated balance sheets at March 31, 2004 and December 31, 2003 presented in this amended Form 10-Q/A.

     The restatement to reclassify the outstanding balance on the credit facility from long-term debt to short-term did not affect total assets or total debt, and there was no impact on, or change in, Applica’s reported results of operations or statements of cash flows. Moreover, the reclassification had no impact on Applica’s liquidity or the maturity date of the senior credit facility. Furthermore, the reclassification did not impact any of the covenants under the credit facility nor did it trigger any accelerated clauses under the 10% Senior Subordinated Notes.

     As a result of the restatement of its consolidated balance sheets, Applica determined that there was a significant deficiency in its internal control over financial reporting as of March 31, 2004 related to the presentation on its balance sheet of the borrowings under its credit facility. The Company determined that such significant deficiency did not rise to the level of a material weakness in its internal control over financial reporting. Because Applica corrected its presentation of long-term and short-term debt in the fourth quarter of 2004, Applica believes that it corrected this significant deficiency.

     Changes in Internal Controls. Applica is committed to continuously improving its internal controls and financial reporting. Beginning in 2003, Applica retained a consulting firm with experience in internal controls to assist management and the Audit Committee in reviewing Applica’s current internal controls structure with a view towards meeting the formalized requirements of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act. As a result of such review and the evaluation discussed above, management has determined that certain matters could be considered deficiencies in its internal control systems, including the following:

     These potential issues have been discussed in detail among management, the Audit Committee and Grant Thornton LLP, our independent accountants. Management has assigned the highest priority to completion of the resolution of these matters. We are continuing to devote significant resources, both internal and external, to update, formalize and standardize our internal controls. Additionally, we are in the process of implementing a new enterprise resource planning system that includes financial applications. As a result of the steps we have taken and will continue to take to improve our systems and controls, changes in internal controls were undertaken in the first quarter of 2004 and will be ongoing throughout the remainder of the year. Despite the issues identified above, management believes that our financial statements and related disclosures as filed to date present fairly, in all material respects, our financial condition and results of operations for the respective periods.

     Limitations on the Effectiveness of Controls. Applica’s management does not expect that our disclosure or internal controls will prevent all errors or fraud. A control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met. Further, the design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs. Because of the inherent limitations in a cost-effective control system, misstatements due to error or fraud may occur and not be detected. Despite these limitations, however, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that Applica’s disclosure controls and procedures (1) are designed to provide reasonable assurance of achieving their objectives and (2) do provide reasonable assurance of achieving their objectives.

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1. Legal Proceedings

     Tilia Matters. In April 2004, Applica and its U.S. operating subsidiary, Applica Consumer Products, Inc., entered into a license and settlement agreement with Tilia, Inc. and Tilia International, Inc. to resolve patent infringement litigation pending in federal court in Miami and before the International Trade Commission in Washington, D.C. As part of the license and settlement agreement, Applica agreed to pay Tilia royalties for using its vacuum sealing technology. In addition, Applica agreed to not contest the validity of Tilia’s previously disputed patents and to settle any future disputes over product infringement by arbitration.

     Other Matters. Applica is subject to other legal proceedings, product liability claims and other claims that arise in the ordinary course of our business. In the opinion of management, the amount of ultimate liability with respect to such matters, if any, in excess of applicable insurance coverage, is not likely to have a material effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations or liquidity of Applica. However, as the outcome of litigation or other claims is difficult to predict, significant changes in the estimated exposures could occur.
