INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS' REPORT

Board of Directors and Shareholders
Brass Eagle Inc.
Bentonville, Arkansas

We have reviewed the condensed consolidated balance sheet of Brass Eagle Inc. as of September 30, 2003 and the related condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income for the three month and nine month periods ended September 30, 2003 and 2002, and the condensed consolidated statements of cash flows for the nine month periods ended September 30, 2003 and 2002. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management.

We conducted our reviews in accordance with standards established by the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants. A review of interim financial information consists principally of applying analytical procedures and making inquiries of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters. It is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards, the objective of which is the expression of an opinion regarding the financial statements taken as a whole. Accordingly, we do not express such an opinion.

Based on our reviews, we are not aware of any material modifications that should be made to the condensed consolidated financial statements referred to above for them to be in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

We have previously audited, in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America, the consolidated statement of financial position of Brass Eagle Inc. as of December 31, 2002, and the related consolidated statements of operations, stockholders' equity, comprehensive income and cash flows for the year then ended (not presented herein); and in our report dated January 31, 2003, we expressed an unqualified opinion on those consolidated statements. In our opinion, the information set forth in the accompanying condensed consolidated statement of financial position as of December 31, 2002, is fairly stated, in all material respects, in relation to the consolidated balance sheet from which it has been derived.

Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
(All information for the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2003 and 2002 is unaudited)

NOTE 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The significant accounting policies and practices followed by Brass Eagle Inc. ("Brass Eagle") are as follows:

Description of Business:  Brass Eagle is a leading manufacturer of paintball markers and other paintball products. Brass Eagle sells its products through major domestic and international retailers and paintball specialty stores. The financial statements include the accounts of Brass Eagle and its subsidiaries.

Interim Results:  The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements are unaudited. In the opinion of management, these statements have been prepared on the same basis as the audited financial statements and include all adjustments, consisting of only normal recurring adjustments, necessary for the fair presentation of the results of the interim periods. The results of operations for the three month and nine month periods ended September 30, 2003 and 2002 are not necessarily indicative of the results expected for the full calendar year. Because all of the disclosures required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America are not included, these interim statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto contained in Brass Eagle's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2002.

Stock-Based Compensation.  Employee compensation expense under stock options is reported using the intrinsic method. No employee stock-based compensation cost is reflected in net income, since all options had an exercise price equal to or greater than the market price of the underlying common stock at the date of grant. Stock compensation expense is recognized for stock issued to Directors for services rendered throughout the year. The following table illustrates the effects on net income and earnings per share if expense was measured using the fair value recognition provision of FASB Statement No. 123 Accounting for Stock Based Compensation:

	THREE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30,		NINE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30,
	2003	2002	2003	2002

Net income as reported	$ 1,338	$ 1,538	$ 1,744	$ 4,996

Pro forma stock-based compensation expense, net of related tax effects	$ 34	$ 73	$ 115	$ 219

Pro forma net income	$ 1,304	$ 1,465	$ 1,629	$ 4,777

Basic earnings per share as reported	$ 0.18	$ 0.21	$ 0.24	$ 0.70
Pro forma basic earnings per share	$ 0.17	$ 0.20	$ 0.22	$ 0.67
Diluted earnings per share as reported	$ 0.18	$ 0.21	$ 0.23	$ 0.67
Pro forma diluted earnings per share	$ 0.17	$ 0.20	$ 0.22	$ 0.65

Product Warranty Reserves. The Company warrants that its marker products are sold free of defect and accepts returns of defective, non-performing products. At the time of sale, the Company records a liability for the cost of future estimated returns of product. The estimates are developed based on historical warranty claim experience. The Company's warranty reserves at September 30, 2003 and December 31, 2002 were $2.0 million and $2.4 million respectively. The activity during the nine months ended September 30, 2003 consisted of current period warranty expense related to 2003 sales of $2.6 million and write offs of $3.0 million.

	=============	==========

NOTE 3 - FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

Brass Eagle adopted SFAS No. 133, "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities", on January 1, 2001. This statement establishes accounting and reporting standards requiring that every derivative instrument be recorded on the balance sheet as either an asset or liability measured at its fair value. SFAS No. 133 also requires that changes in the derivative's fair value be recognized currently in earnings unless specific hedge accounting criteria are met.

During fiscal 2000, Brass Eagle entered into an interest rate swap arrangement, which is a derivative financial instrument, with a bank. The purpose of the interest rate swap arrangement is to reduce exposure to interest rate fluctuations by effectively fixing the interest rate on part of the borrowings under Brass Eagle's term debt. The term of the hedge was through August 29, 2003 and was not renewed upon expiration. For the nine months ended September 30, 2003, Brass Eagle recorded a gain to comprehensive income of $321,000, net of income taxes of $197,000. For the nine months ended September 30, 2002, Brass Eagle recorded a gain of $116,000 to comprehensive income, net of taxes of $89,000.

NOTE 4 - CREDIT FACILITY & LONG-TERM DEBT BORROWINGS

The Senior Credit Facility, dated June 30, 2000 and modified on February 1, 2001, December 31, 2001, September 10, 2002 and July 31, 2003, is comprised of a $12.5 million revolving credit facility with a seasonal increase to $17.5 million ($1.8 million outstanding at September 30, 2003), a $2.0 million term loan and a $28.0 million term loan used for the acquisition of substantially all the assets of JT USA, L.P. The funds available under the revolving credit facility are limited to eligible accounts receivable and inventory, as defined, up to a maximum of $12.5 million (with a seasonal increase to $17.5 million from October 15 to January 15). The credit facility is secured by all tangible and intangible assets of Brass Eagle, exclusive of its investment in Challenge Park Xtreme, LLC. Brass Eagle may borrow up to 70% of the eligible accounts receivable balance.

The $28.0 million term loan requires quarterly principal payments of $1.4 million and matures in June 2005 ($9.8 million outstanding as of September 30, 2003). The $2.0 million term loan requires quarterly principal payments of $0.2 million and matured in September 2003 ($0 outstanding as of September 30, 2003).

Borrowings bear interest as designated by Brass Eagle at either the bank's prime rate (plus 1.50% based on Brass Eagles' leverage ratio) or LIBOR (plus 1.25% to 2.50% based on Brass Eagle's leverage ratio).

The agreement, including the amendments executed on February 1, 2001, December 31, 2001, September 10, 2002 and July 31, 2003, includes certain quarterly restrictive covenants, including maintaining a minimum net worth of $40.0 million plus 75% of net income from the time of borrowing, a leverage ratio of 2.0 to 1.0, and a 1.0 to 1.0 fully-loaded fixed charge coverage ratio. The agreement limits capital expenditures to $4.5 million per year for 2002 and thereafter. Brass Eagle is currently in compliance with all restrictive covenants.

Financing costs related to the original structuring of the above financing agreement were capitalized and are being amortized over the remaining life of the respective loan. These costs are classified as other long term assets on the accompanying balance sheet.

NOTE 5- GOODWILL

Brass Eagle adopted FAS 142, "Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets", on January 1, 2002. This statement resulted in the cessation of goodwill amortization. Goodwill is subject to at least an annual assessment of impairment. As of September 30, 2003, Brass Eagle had goodwill (net of amortization) of $32.3 million

NOTE 6 - DEFERRED COMPENSATION

In November 2001, Brass Eagle established a non-qualified Deferred Compensation Plan which is exempt from certain restrictions imposed by the Internal Revenue Code on 401(k) plans. Participation in the Deferred Compensation Plan is limited to select management of the company. Participants may contribute up to 100 percent of their gross pay, including bonuses. Brass Eagle will match half of each participant's contribution up to 10 percent of the respective individual's compensation. Assets are held in individual accounts for each participant and earn a rate of return based on participant-selected investment options. The amounts deposited in the plan by the participants are unsecured liabilities of Brass Eagle.

Brass Eagle purchased company-owned life insurance policies insuring the lives of the group of participants to finance the plan.

The cash surrender value of life insurance at September 30, 2003 was $655,000. Brass Eagle's contribution for the nine months ended September 30, 2003 was $87,000. The liability for deferred compensation at September 30, 2003 was $754,000.

NOTE 7 - SUBSEQUENT EVENT

Brass Eagle entered into an Agreement on October 22, 2003 to merge the Company with K2 Inc. of Carlsbad, California in an all stock transaction. The Agreement contemplates an exchange offer of K2 common shares for common shares of Brass Eagle followed by a merger. Brass Eagle Shareholders will receive 0.6036 shares of K2 stock for each share of Brass Eagle common stock. The Board of Directors of Brass Eagle recommends that shareholders accept the offer, and tender their shares to K2. The merger may be finalized as soon as December, 2003.

The following discussion should be read in conjunction with the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements for the three months and nine months ended September 30, 2003 and September 30, 2002 and the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2002.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

The following table sets forth operations data as a percentage of net sales for the periods indicated:

	Three Months Ended		Nine Months Ended
	September 30,		September 30,
	2003	2002	2003	2002
Net sales	100.0%	100.0%	100.0%	100.0%
Cost of sales	65.1%	61.5%	65.4%	61.6%
Gross profit	34.9%	38.5%	34.6%	38.4%
Operating expenses	25.2%	26.5%	28.8%	25.5%
Operating income	9.7%	12.0%	5.8%	12.9%
Net income	5.4%	7.0%	2.8%	7.3%

THREE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2003 COMPARED TO THREE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2002
Net Sales.
Net sales increased by 12.3% to $24.6 million for the three months ended September 30, 2003, compared to $21.9 million for the three months ended September 30, 2002. The increase in net sales was primarily due to the increase in sales to mass merchandisers due to improved retail sales.

Domestic sales of Brass Eagle products increased by 11.5% to $22.3 million (or 90.7% of sales) for the three months ended September 30, 2003 from $20.0 million (or 91.3% of sales) for the three months ended September 30, 2002. International sales increased by 21.1% to $2.3 million (9.3% of sales) for the three months ended September 30, 2003 from $1.9 million (or 8.7% of sales) for the three months ended September 30, 2002. The increase in international sales was primarily due to sales made to a new European distributor as part of Brass Eagle's continued focus on growing international business.

Gross Profit.  Gross profit as a percentage of net sales decreased to 34.9% for the three months ended September 30, 2003, compared to 38.5% for the three months ended September 30, 2002. The decrease was due primarily to reduced pricing, sales mix and additional costs of air freight to expedite product sourced in Asia in order to meet customer needs.

Operating Expenses.  Operating expenses increased 6.9% to $6.2 million in the three months ended September 30, 2003, compared to $5.8 million in the three months ended September 30, 2002. As a percentage of net sales, operating expenses were 25.2% for the three months ended September 30, 2003 compared to 26.5% for the three months ended September 30, 2002. The decreased percentage is due primarily to reduced incentive compensation offset by increased variable expense categories including freight, commissions and insurance resulting from a shift in distribution channel mix from mass merchandisers to sporting goods channel.

Operating Income.  Operating income decreased by 7.7% to $2.4 million in the three months ended September 30, 2003, compared to $2.6 million in the three months ended September 30, 2002. The decrease was primarily due to lower gross profit margins.

Interest.  Brass Eagle recorded net interest expense of $237,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2003, compared to $371,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2002. The decrease in net interest expense was due to reduction in the amount borrowed, as well as lower interest rates.

Income Tax Rate.  Brass Eagle's effective federal and state income tax rate was 38.0% for the three months ended September 30, 2003 but 32.0% for the three months ended September 30, 2002. The lower 2002 income tax rate was due to the reversal of certain state tax liability accruals no longer deemed necessary at that time.

NINE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2003 COMPARED TO NINE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2002

Net Sales.  Net sales decreased by 8.7% to $62.7 million for the first nine months of 2003, compared to $68.7 million for the first nine months of 2002. The decrease in net sales was primarily due to a soft retail environment in the first quarter followed by continued inventory reduction by the mass merchandisers in the second quarter. This was offset, in part, by an improvement in retail sales in the third quarter of 2003.

Domestic sales of Brass Eagle products decreased by 12.4% to $55.6 million (or 88.7% of sales) for the nine months ended September 30, 2003 from $63.5 million (or 92.4% of sales) for the nine months ended September 30, 2002. International sales increased by 36.5% to $7.1 million (11.3% of sales) for the nine months ended September 30, 2003 from $5.2 million (or 7.6% of sales) for the nine months ended September 30, 2002. The increase in international sales was primarily due to sales to a new European distributor.

Gross Profit.  Gross profit as a percentage of net sales decreased to 34.6% for the nine months ended September 30, 2003, compared to 38.4% for the nine months ended September 30, 2002. The decrease was due primarily to discounts offered on certain slower moving products to reduce inventories, other price reductions, sales mix and air freight expenses incurred to expedite the arrival of product sourced in Asia.

Operating Expenses.  Operating expenses increased 2.9% to $18.0 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2003, compared to $17.5 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2002. As a percentage of net sales, operating expenses were 28.8% for the nine months ended September 30, 2003 compared to 25.5% for the nine months ended September 30, 2002. The increased percentage is due to most of the period expenses remaining relatively constant while sales declined together with an overall increase in certain variable expense categories including freight, shipping expenses and co-op advertising resulting from a shift in distribution channel mix from mass merchandisers to sporting goods channel and issues associated with the implementation of new planning software.

Operating Income.  Operating income decreased by 64.1% to $2.8 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2003, compared to $7.8 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2002. The decrease was primarily due to lower revenue and gross profit margins combined with increased operating expenses.

Interest.  Brass Eagle recorded net interest expense of $804,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2003, compared to $1.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2003. The decrease in net interest expense was due to a reduction in the amount borrowed, as well as lower interest rates.

Income Tax Rate.  Brass Eagle's effective federal and state income tax rate was 38.0% for the nine months ended September 30, 2003 and 36.0% for the nine months ended September 30, 2002. The lower 2002 income tax rate was due to the reversal of certain state tax liability accruals no longer deemed necessary.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

At September 30, 2003, Brass Eagle had working capital of $25.9 million. Brass Eagle entered into a $40.0 million Senior Credit Facility with Bank of America on June 30, 2000. On December 31, 2001 and July 31, 2003, this Credit Facility was modified to adjust certain restrictive covenants. On September 10, 2002, this Credit Facility was modified to adjust the availability under the revolving line of credit to $12.5 million with a seasonal increase to $17.5 million from October 15 to January 15 and to adjust certain restrictive covenants. Brass Eagle is currently in compliance with all restrictive covenants of the Credit Facility.

Brass Eagle believes that funds generated from operations, together with borrowings under the credit facility, will be adequate to meet its anticipated cash requirements for at least the next 18 months. Brass Eagle's operating cash flows are subject to risk of a decrease if demand for the company's products decline. Brass Eagle may, when and if the opportunity arises, acquire or participate in other businesses or ventures involved in activities or having product lines that are compatible with those of Brass Eagle or pursue the vertical integration of production capabilities for one or more of Brass Eagle's products which are currently purchased from third parties. The capital expenditures that would be associated with any such activities that may occur in the future would be funded with available cash and cash equivalents, borrowings from the credit facility, working capital, or a combination of such sources.

Net cash provided by operating activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2003 was $9.3 million, consisting primarily of net income of $1.7 million, depreciation and amortization expense of $2.2 million, plus a net decrease in accounts receivable of $4.3 million, an increase in accounts payable and accrued expenses of $6.2 million, a decrease in prepaid expenses of $162,000, an increase in inventory of $6.3 million and a decrease in deferred taxes of $720,000.

Net cash used in investing activities was $1.8 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2003, which was for purchases of land, property and equipment.

Net cash used in financing activities was $7.6 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2003, due to the reduction of long-term debt of $4.8 million and net payments on the line of credit of $2.5 million, purchase of treasury stock of $370,000, issuance of stock of $27,000 and exercise of stock options of $27,000
