NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (unaudited)

NOTE A – BASIS OF PRESENTATION

Unaudited Financial Statements

In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited financial statements contain all adjustments (consisting solely of normal recurring adjustments) necessary to present fairly the financial position of T.J.T., Inc. (the “Company”) and the results of operations and cash flows. Certain reclassifications of prior quarter amounts were made to conform with current quarter presentation, none of which affect previously recorded net income.

Stock Options

The Company has a stock option plan which allows officers, directors and key employees to receive non-qualified and incentive stock options. During the three month period ending June 30, 2004, the Company awarded 5,000 stock options to a director with an exercise price of $.70 and retired 35,000 stock options previously issued to directors with exercise prices ranging between $.39 and $2.00 per share. The Company awarded 20,000 stock options to directors during the quarter ended March 31, 2004 with exercise prices ranging from $.70 to $.80. No options were granted during the quarter ended December 31, 2003. All options granted will become vested at a rate of 20 percent each year for a period of five years from the grant date. As of June 30, 2004, 380,000 shares of stock were available for future option grants.

As of October 1, 2003, the Company adopted the fair value method of accounting for stock options contained in Statement of Financial Standards (“SFAS”) No. 123, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation. During the transition period, the Company will be utilizing the prospective method under SFAS No. 148 Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation – Transition and Disclosures. Stock options granted subsequent to October 1, 2003 will be expensed over the stock option vesting period based on fair value which will be determined using the Black-Scholes option-pricing method at the date the options are granted. Stock-based compensation for the quarters ending June 30 and March 31 of fiscal 2004 was $792 and $634, respectively. The net of tax impact on the financial statements in the nine month period ended June 30, 2004 was $856. The net of tax impact for the three months ending June 30, 2004 was $475, which is not included in the table below due to rounding.

The following table illustrates the effect on net income (loss) and net income (loss) per common share as if the fair value method had been applied to all outstanding and unvested awards in each period:

The Company does not assign interest income, interest expense, other expenses or income taxes to operating segments. Identifiable assets and related capital expenditures are assigned to operating locations rather than operating segments, with depreciation allocated to the segments based upon usage.

The Arizona facility, which was closed in June of 2003, primarily reconditioned axles and tires.

NOTE F - CREDIT AGREEMENTS

The Company renewed a $350,000 revolving credit facility that matures on March 31, 2005 and is secured by receivables and inventory. The interest rate on the credit line is the prime rate plus one percent. As of June 30, 2004, the Company has not borrowed on the line and is in compliance with the covenants.

NOTE G - RELATED PARTY

The Company has 50 percent ownership interest in NewCo Axle & Tire, L.L.C., a joint venture with West States Recycling, Inc., and will receive 40 percent of the future net profits. The Company accounts for its investment in NewCo under the equity method and recognized $161,000 of income related to the joint venture during the nine month period ended June 30, 2004. The Company also received rental income from NewCo for equipment leased to the joint venture of approximately $21,000. During the nine month period ended June 30, 2004, the Company recorded sales of $92,000 to NewCo and purchases of $8,000 from NewCo. On June 30, 2004, the NewCo receivable was $48,000. The majority of the receivable is a result of sales that occurred in June of 2004.

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

This Form 10-Q contains certain forward-looking statements which are based on management’s current expectations. These forward-looking statements are subject to certain risks and uncertainties. The words “believe,” “expect,” “anticipate,” “intend,” “estimate,” “will,” “should,” “could,” and other expressions that indicate future events and trends identify forward-looking statements. The Company has identified risk factors which could cause actual results to differ substantially from the forward-looking statements. These risk factors include, but are not limited to, general economic conditions, changes in interest rates, availability of financing for both manufactured home buyers and suppliers, real estate values, adverse weather conditions, the economic viability of our customers and vendors, and availability of qualified employees. In addition, industry conditions that may have an adverse impact on future results include, but are not limited to, low barriers of entry, changes and/or enforcement in legislation or regulations, and competitive pressure on both the purchasing of used axles and tires from manufactured housing dealers and the selling of refurbished axles and tires to manufactured housing factories.

T.J.T., Inc. has two business lines: repairing and reconditioning axles and tires for the manufactured housing industry, and distribution of after-market accessory products to manufactured housing dealers and set-up contractors, as well as siding to site builders.

The Company has recycling and distribution locations in Emmett, Idaho; Woodland, California; Platteville, Colorado; and Chehalis, Washington. The Company also manufactures hanger parts in Eugene, Oregon which are used by the manufactured housing producers to attach axles to homes. The Oregon facility also sells housing and accessory products. The Company operates in Arizona and New Mexico through NewCo Axle & Tire, L.L.C. (“NewCo”), a joint venture limited liability corporation.

Results of Operations

Nationally, the manufactured housing industry continues to experience modest declines in production levels as a result of more restrictive credit standards and excessive repossessions. In the Company’s market area, manufactured housing shipments increased three percent in the quarter ended June 30, 2004 as compared to the quarter ended June 30, 2003 according to statistics from the National Conference of States on Building Codes and Standards. Company net sales increased two percent during that same period; however, net sales for the 2003 quarter included sales from the Company’s Arizona facility, which was closed in June of 2003. Excluding the April, May and June 2003 Arizona sales, net sales for the Company increased 14 percent during the three month period ending June 30, 2004.

The following table sets forth the operating data of the Company as a percentage of net sales for the periods listed below:

	Three Months Ended				Nine Months Ended
	June 30, 2004		June 30, 2003		June 30, 2004		June 30, 2003
Axle and tire reconditioning	70.9	%	77.6	%	74.9	%	78.0	%
Manufactured housing accessories and siding	29.1		22.4		25.1		22.0
Gross margin	24.1		21.5		24.4		20.4
Selling expense	14.4		13.7		15.4		15.2
Administrative expense	8.6		6.2		8.4		6.7

Net Sales

Net sales increased two percent or $103,000 for the three months ending June 30, 2004 compared to the same period a year ago. The Company closed its Arizona location in June of 2003, which contributed sales of $531,000 in the 2003 quarter. The three month comparison for sales from the remaining locations shows an increase of $634,000 or 14 percent.

Sales for the nine months ending June 30, 2004 decreased $72,000, or five percent, as compared to the same period in 2003. The Arizona location contributed $1,921,000 of sales during the first six months of fiscal year 2003 prior to being closed. Excluding the 2003 sales from Arizona, net sales increased 10 percent or $1,245,000. This increase in net sales of the remaining locations was primarily due to a higher volume of sales in both segments of business; during the nine month period ending June 30, 2004, axle and tire sales increased 10 percent while dealer and accessories sales increased 9 percent from the same period last year.

Gross Profit

The Company’s gross profit increased $160,000 or 16 percent during the three months ended June 30, 2004 compared to the same period a year ago. The Arizona location contributed negative gross profit in the 2003 three month period of $19,000.

Gross profit for the Company during the nine month period ending June 30, 2004 increased to $423,000 or 14 percent as compared to the same period in 2003. The negative gross profit generated by the Arizona facility during the nine month period in 2003 was $82,000.

Gross profit margin increased to 24 percent for both the three and nine month periods in fiscal period ended June 30, 2004 compared to 22 percent and 20 percent in the same 2003 periods due to increases in sales volumes of the higher margin dealer accessories products.

Selling, General and Administrative

Selling, general and administrative expense increased 18 percent, or $185,000, during the three month period ending June 30, 2004 compared to the same period in 2003. The increase for the nine month period ending June 30, 2004 compared to the same period a year ago was four percent, or $128,000. The increases in both period comparisons were partially a result of wage changes as well as bonus accruals during the 2004 period that had not been accrued in June of 2003 due to the net loss. Other factors contributing to the increases include costs related to updating the Company’s information systems and accounting software, as well as higher selling expenses at the corporate level and at the Idaho and California locations attributable to efforts associated with improving the dealer accessories segment sales.

Net income

Net income for the quarter ending June 30, 2004 was $110,000, a 53 percent increase compared to the same three month period in 2003. The joint venture, NewCo, began operating in June of 2003 generating only $12,000 of net income versus the $83,000 contributed to net income during the three months of operation in the 2004 quarter ended June 30.

Net income for the nine month period ended June 30, 2004 increased $301,000, or $.07 per share, compared to the same period a year ago due to increased sales of higher margin accessory products, nonoperating income from the joint venture, interest related to notes receivable, and rental income. The Company’s Arizona location had incurred losses of $77,000 prior to closing in June 2003, which also contributed to the increase in net income for the nine month 2004 period.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

The Company’s decrease in net cash for the nine months ended June 30, 2004 was $547,000. Operating activities for the period used cash flow of $457,000 compared to $139,000 of cash used for operations in the same nine month period a year ago. The change from period to period is primarily due to increases in the housing and accessories inventory levels as a result of adding new product lines and changing suppliers of certain tie down accessories.

Net cash used by investing activities was $90,000 during the nine months ended June 30, 2004 while investing activities during the same period in 2003 used cash of $18,000. During the first and second quarters of 2004, the Company invested approximately $122,000 in leasehold improvements made to the Chehalis, Washington site and the Eugene, Oregon facility. The Company also invested approximately $103,000 during the nine month period in trucks, trailers and equipment primarily to assist with increasing sales volumes. The Company also invested $27,000 in necessary upgrades to the information system and accounting software during June of 2004. The additions to property, plant and equipment were offset by amounts received as pay off of notes receivables.

The Company expects that cash flow from operations combined with the line of credit will be a sufficient source of liquidity to fund operations. The Company has a $350,000 revolving credit facility with a financial institution secured by receivables and inventory. The interest rate on the credit line is the prime rate plus one percent. As of June 30, 2004, the Company has not borrowed on the line and is in compliance with all loan covenants.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk

The Company is not required to provide this information pursuant to Item 305(e) of Regulation S-K.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

The Company maintains disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the Company’s Securities Exchange Act reports is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to the Company’s management, including its Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate,

to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives, as ours are designed to do, and management necessarily is required to apply its judgement in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures.

During the 90-day period prior to the date of this report, an evaluation was performed under the supervision and with the participation of our Company’s management, including the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures. The Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer concluded that, based upon the evaluation of management, the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective. Subsequent to the date of this evaluation, there have been no significant changes in the Company’s internal controls or in other factors that could significantly affect these controls, and no corrective actions have been needed or taken with regard to significant deficiencies or material weaknesses in such controls.
