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

First Team Sports, Inc. (the "Company") is a leading manufacturer, designer and marketer of brand name sporting goods. The Company's product groups consist of in-line skates, in-line accessories and parts (primarily protective wear and replacement wheels and bearings), ice hockey sticks and ice hockey protective wear and accessories. Within the product groups, the Company maintains UltraWheels® and Skate Attack® in-line product lines and a Hespeler® ice hockey line. The UltraWheels line consists of higher quality and higher priced products that are targeted for specialty and sporting goods chain store customers. The Skate Attack line consists of lower priced products for the mass merchant customers. The Hespeler ice hockey line consists of high quality products that are targeted primarily for the specialty and sporting goods chain stores.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Net Sales. Net sales were $8.1 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2002, a decrease of 49% compared to net sales of $15.9 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2001. Decreases in unit sales of in-line skates, ice hockey sticks and protective wear were the principal factors in the Company's net sales decrease in the first quarter of fiscal 2002.

A breakdown and analysis of the Company's main product lines is as follows:

	First Quarter
	Fiscal 2002				Fiscal 2001
	Amount		%		Amount		%		Change
	(dollar amounts in millions)
In-line Skates	$	6.2	76.5	%	$	12.1	76.1	%	(48.8	%)
In-line Accessories and Parts		1.0	12.3	%		1.5	9.4	%	(33.3	%)
Ice Hockey Sticks		0.3	3.7	%		0.7	4.4	%	(57.1	%)
Ice Hockey Protective and Access.		0.6	7.5	%		1.6	10.1	%	(62.5	%)

Total Net Sales	$	8.1	100.0	%	$	15.9	100.0	%	(49.1	%)

The Company currently distributes products to numerous countries worldwide. A geographic breakdown of the Company's net sales for the first quarter is as follows:

	Fiscal 2002				Fiscal 2001
	Amount		%		Amount		%		Change
	(dollar amounts in millions)
Domestic	$	5.2	64.2	%	$	11.1	69.8	%	(53.2	%)
Canada	$	1.9	23.5	%		3.6	22.6	%	(47.2	%)
Europe	$	0.7	8.6	%		0.8	5.1	%	(12.5	%)
Other International	$	0.3	3.7	%		0.4	2.5	%	(25.0	%)

Total Net Sales	$	8.1	100.0	%	$	15.9	100.0	%	(49.1	%)

Several factors contributed to the Company's sales performance in the first quarter of fiscal 2002. The decrease in the domestic and Canadian sales was the result of a slow-down in consumer spending throughout North America, a large carryover of retail inventory after the Holiday season and poor Spring weather throughout North America and Europe, which resulted in reductions and/or cancellation of Spring orders by some major customers.

Gross Margin. As a percentage of net sales, the Company's gross margin was 28% in the first quarter of fiscal 2002 and 32% in fiscal 2001. The decrease in gross margin as a percentage of net sales in the first quarter of fiscal 2002 was primarily due to the national and international markets that continue to be very competitive and are under extreme price competition.

The Company's UltraWheels brand accounted for 85% of total net sales in the first quarter of fiscal 2002 compared to 80% in the first quarter of fiscal 2001. The Company's Skate Attack brand accounted for 4% of total sales in the first quarter of fiscal 2002 compared to 6% in the first quarter of fiscal 2001. The Hespeler brand accounted for 11% of total net sales in the first quarter of fiscal 2002 compared to 14% in the first quarter of fiscal 2001.

Operating Expenses. Selling expenses were $1.0 million (or 13% of total net sales) in the first quarter of fiscal 2002 compared to $1.4 million (or 9%) in the first quarter of fiscal 2001. The decrease in the absolute dollar amount of selling expenses in fiscal 2001 is primarily the result of a decrease in commissions associated with the decreased sales volume.

General and administrative expenses were $1.8 million (or 23% of total net sales) in the first quarter of fiscal 2002 compared to $2.0 million (or 13%) in the first quarter of fiscal 2001. The decrease in the absolute dollar amount of general and administrative expenses was primarily related to decreased personnel costs associated with revenue reductions.

Other Income and Expense. Interest expense was $269,000 in the first quarter of fiscal 2002 compared to $308,000 in the first quarter of fiscal 2001. The decrease in interest expense for fiscal 2002 was primarily due to decreased usage of the Company's line of credit facility and a decrease in the bank's prime rate. The decreased rates affected both the Company's revolving line of credit facility and its term loan.

Provision for Income Taxes. The Company's effective tax rate was 1.6% in the first quarter of fiscal 2002 compared to 34.5% in the first quarter of fiscal 2001. The decrease in fiscal 2002 is primarily due to the valuation allowance against deferred tax assets and the effect of state and foreign tax rates.

Net (Loss)/Income. The Company had a net loss of ($883,000), or ($.15) per share, in the first quarter of fiscal 2002 compared to net income of $893,000 or $.15 per share, in fiscal 2001.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

In the first quarter of fiscal 2002, the Company's operations used $2.3 million of cash compared to providing $266,000 of cash in the first quarter of fiscal 2001. The cash used by operations in the current year was primarily due to a decrease in payables.

Net cash used in investing activities was $25,000 in the first quarter of fiscal 2002 compared to $214,000 in the first quarter of fiscal 2001. The use of cash for investing activities was attributable to equipment purchases.

Net cash provided by financing activities was $2.9 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2002 compared to $1.1 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2001. The net cash provided by bank financing activities in both fiscal 2002 and 2001 was primarily for funding the normal day to day operations of the Company.

The Company's debt to worth ratio was .7 to 1 as of May 31, 2001, .6 to 1 as of February 28, 2001 and .8 to 1 as of May 31, 2000. The Company's long-term debt, which consists primarily of a term note secured by a mortgage on the Company's headquarters and warehouse building and obligations under endorsement license agreements, less current maturities of $500,000, was $5.0 million as of May 31, 2001.

The Company's primary financing facility is a $10 million revolving credit line, which expires February 28, 2004, bears interest at the bank's prime rate and is subject to a borrowing base that is calculated monthly and updated periodically during each month. The borrowing base is based on a percentage of eligible receivables and inventories. As of May 31, 2001, the borrowing base limitation was $10 million, of which $4.2 million was outstanding.

In connection with this revolving credit facility, the Company has agreed, among other things, to maintain certain minimum financial ratio and income levels. The Company is in compliance with all covenants.

The Company believes its current cash position, funds available under existing bank arrangements, and cash generated from operations will be sufficient to finance the Company's operating requirements through fiscal 2002.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

Market Risk. The Company's sales and results of operations are subject to foreign currency fluctuations. The Company's foreign operations are in countries with fairly stable currencies; therefore, the effect of foreign currencies has not been significant. The Company attempts to limit its exposure to translation gains and losses by maintaining and controlling its foreign cash flows when possible, thus reducing such exposure.

Interest Rate Risk. The Company's interest rate risk exposure results from the floating prime rate on the Company's revolving credit line and term loan. The impact of an increase in interest rates by 100 basis points (1%) would not have a material effect on the Company's financial statement.
