EXPLANATORY NOTE
Explanatory Note: This Form 10-Q/A amends our report on Form 10-Q for the period ended June 30, 2006 to restate our unaudited consolidated financial statements for the three months ended June 30, 2006 and 2005 to correct errors which occurred when (i) we incorrectly recorded a duplicative entry that continued to recognize a gross profit impact resulting from the accrual for certain cores authorized to be returned, but still in-transit to us from our customers, (ii) we incorrectly recorded core charge revenue when the amount of revenue was not fixed and determinable and (iii) we did not appropriately accrue losses for all probable customer payment discrepancies. The impact of the duplicative entry “(i)” above on the accumulated deficit at March 31, 2003 is a decrease of $865,000. The revenue entry “(ii)”  and customer payment discrepancies entry “(iii)” above did not impact periods prior to April 1, 2003. Management believes this Form 10-Q/A and planned future filings are appropriate. However, we continue to evaluate this conclusion regarding filings for periods prior to March 31, 2006.
Except as required to reflect the effects of these restatements, no attempt has been made in this Form 10-Q/A to modify or update other disclosures presented in the original report on Form 10-Q. Accordingly, this Form 10-Q/A, including the financial statements and notes thereto included herein, generally do not reflect events occurring after the date of the original filing of the Form 10-Q or modify or update those disclosures affected by subsequent events. Consequently, all other information not affected by the restatement is unchanged and reflects the disclosures made at the time of the original filing of the Form 10-Q on August 14, 2006. For a description of subsequent events, this Form 10-Q/A should be read in conjunction with our filings made subsequent to the filing of the original Form 10-Q, including the Company’s Current Reports on Form 8-K filed since August 14, 2006.

Condensed Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
June 30, 2006 and 2005
(Unaudited and Restated)
     The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Operating results for the three months ended June 30, 2006 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending March 31, 2007. Amounts related to disclosures of March 31, 2006 balances were derived from the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements as of March 31, 2006. For further information, refer to the financial statements and footnotes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K/A for the year ended March 31, 2006, filed on February 12, 2007.
NOTE A — Company Background and Organization
     Motorcar Parts of America, Inc. and its subsidiaries (the “Company” or “MPA”) remanufacture and distribute alternators and starters for import and domestic cars and light trucks. These replacement parts are sold for use on vehicles after initial vehicle purchase. These automotive parts are sold to automotive retail chain stores and warehouse distributors throughout the United States and Canada. The Company also sells after-market replacement alternators and starters to a major automotive manufacturer.
     The Company obtains used alternators and starters, commonly known as cores, primarily from its customers (retailers) as trade-ins and by purchasing them from vendors (core brokers). The retailers grant credit to the consumer when the used part is returned to them, and the Company in turn provides a credit to the retailer upon return to the Company. These cores are an essential material needed for the remanufacturing operations. The Company has remanufacturing, warehousing and shipping/receiving operations for alternators and starters in California, Singapore, Malaysia and Mexico. In addition, the Company has a warehouse distribution facility in Nashville, Tennessee and fee warehouse distribution centers in New Jersey and Oregon.
     The Company operates in one business segment pursuant to Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 131, “Disclosures about Segments of Enterprise and Related Information.”
NOTE B — Restatement of Financial Statements for the Year Ended March 31, 2006 and the Three Months Ended June 30, 2006 and June 30, 2005
     The consolidated balance sheets as of June 30, 2006 and March 31, 2006, the consolidated statements of operations for the three months ended June 30, 2006 and June 30, 2005 and the consolidated statements of cash flows for the three months ended June 30, 2006 and June 30, 2005 have been restated to correct errors which occurred when (i) the Company incorrectly recorded a duplicative entry that continued to recognize the gross profit impact resulting from the accrual for certain cores authorized to be returned, but still in-transit to the Company from its customers, (ii) the Company incorrectly recorded core charge revenue when the amount of revenue was not fixed and determinable and (iii) the Company did not appropriately accrue losses for all existing and potential future customer payment discrepancies. The estimated tax effect of the errors noted above is also reflected in the restatements. The condensed notes to the financial statements for the periods ending June 30, 2006 and 2005 were also restated as required to reflect the effect of the restatements noted above.
     The impact of this restatement has been reflected throughout the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes as follows:

    NOTE C — Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
 
1.   Principles of consolidation
 
    The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Motorcar Parts of America, Inc and its wholly owned subsidiaries, MVR Products Pte. Ltd., Unijoh Sdn. Bhd. and Motorcar Parts de Mexico, S.A. de C.V. All significant inter-company accounts and transactions have been eliminated.
 
2.   Cash Equivalents
 
    The Company considers all highly liquid investments purchased with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents. The Company maintains cash balances at several financial institutions located in Southern California. The Company also maintains cash balances in local and US dollar currencies in Singapore, Malaysia and Mexico for use by the facilities operating in those foreign countries. The balances in these foreign accounts if translated into US dollars at June 30, 2006 and March 31, 2006 were $562,000 and $399,000, respectively.
 
3.   Inventory
 
    Inventory is stated at the lower of cost or market. The standard cost of inventory is based upon the direct costs of material and labor and an allocation of indirect costs. The standard cost of inventory is continuously evaluated and adjusted to reflect current cost levels. Standard costs are determined for each of the three classifications of inventory as follows:

11


Table of Contents

      Finished goods cost includes the standard cost of cores and raw materials and allocations of labor and overhead. Work in process inventory historically comprises less than 3% of the total inventory balance. Work in process is in various stages of production, is on average 50% complete, and is valued at 50% of the standard cost of a finished good. Core and other raw materials inventory are stated at the lower of cost or market. The Company determines the market value of cores based on purchases of core and core broker prices lists.
    In determining these standards, the Company excludes those costs deemed to be caused by abnormal amounts of idle capacity and spoilage and expenses those costs as incurred. During the three months ended June 30, 2006 and June 30, 2005, there were no material costs that were considered abnormal as defined in Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Statement No. 151, “Inventory Costs, an amendment of ARB No. 43, Chapter 4” (FAS 151).
 
    Inventory unreturned represents the value of cores and finished goods shipped to customers and expected to be returned, stated at the lower of cost or market. Upon product shipment, the Company reduces the inventory account for the amount of product shipped and establishes the inventory unreturned asset account for that portion of the shipment that is expected to be returned by the customer.
 
    The Company provides an allowance for potentially excess and obsolete inventory based upon historical usage.
 
    The Company applies discounts on supplier invoices by reducing related accounts payable and inventory at the time of payment.
 
4.   Income Taxes
 
    The Company accounts for income taxes in accordance with guidance issued by the Financial Accounting Standard Board (“FASB”) in Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 109 (“SFAS”), “Accounting for Income Taxes,” which requires the use of the liability method of accounting for income taxes.
 
    The liability method measures deferred income taxes by applying enacted statutory rates in effect at the balance sheet date to the differences between the tax base of assets and liabilities and their reported amounts in the financial statements. The resulting asset or liability is adjusted to reflect changes in the tax laws as they occur. A valuation allowance is provided to reduce deferred tax assets when it is more likely than not that a portion of the deferred tax asset will not be realized.
 
    As required the liability method is also used in determining the impact of the adoption of FAS 123R on the deferred tax assets and liabilities of the Company.
 
    The primary components of the Company’s income tax provision (benefit) are (i) the current liability or refund due for federal, state and foreign income taxes, and (ii) the change in the amount of the net deferred income tax asset, including the effect of any change in the valuation allowance.
 
    Realization of these deferred tax assets is dependent upon the Company’s ability to generate sufficient future taxable income. Management believes that it is more likely than not that future taxable income will be sufficient to realize the recorded deferred tax assets. Future taxable income is based on management’s forecast of the future operating results of the Company. Management periodically reviews such forecasts in comparison with actual results and there can be no assurance that such results will be achieved.
 
5.   Revenue Recognition
 
    The Company recognizes revenue when performance by the Company is complete. Revenue is recognized when all of the following criteria established by the Staff of the Securities and Exchange Commission in Staff Accounting Bulletin 104, “Revenue Recognition,” have been met:
    Persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists,

    For products shipped free-on-board (“FOB”) shipping point, revenue is recognized on the date of shipment. For products shipped FOB destination, revenues are recognized two days after the date of shipment based on the Company’s experience regarding the length of transit duration. The Company includes shipping and handling charges in its gross invoice price to customers and classifies the total amount as revenue in accordance with Emerging Issues Task Force Issue (“EITF”) 00-10, “Accounting for Shipping and Handling Fees and Costs.” Shipping and handling costs are recorded as cost of sales.
 
    Unit value revenue is recorded based on the Company’s price list, net of applicable discounts and allowances. The Company allows customers to return slow moving and other inventory. The Company provides for such returns of inventory in accordance with SFAS 48, “Revenue Recognition When Right of Return Exists”. The Company reduces revenue and cost of sales for the unit value based on a historical return analysis and information obtained from customers about current stock levels.
 
    The Company accounts for revenues and cost of sales on a net-of-core-value basis. Management has determined that the Company’s business practices and contractual arrangements result in the return to the Company of more than 90% of all used cores. Accordingly, management excludes the value of cores from revenue in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards 48, “Revenue Recognition When Right of Return Exists(“SFAS 48”). Core values charged to customers and not included in revenues totaled $17,493,000 and $16,099,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2006 and 2005, respectively.
 
    When the Company ships a product, it recognizes an obligation to accept a returned core by recording a contra receivable account based upon the agreed upon core charge and establishing an inventory unreturned account at the standard cost of the core expected to be returned. Upon receipt of a core, the Company grants the customer a credit based on the core value billed, and restores the returned core to inventory. The Company generally limits core returns to the number of similar cores previously shipped to each customer.
 
    When the Company ships a product, it invoices certain customers for the core portion of the product at full sales price. For cores invoiced at full sales price, the Company recognizes core charge revenue based upon an estimate of the rate at which customers will pay cash for cores in lieu of returning cores for credits.
 
    The amount of revenue recognized for core charges for the three months ended June 30, 2006 and 2005 was $831,000 and $713,000, respectively.
 
    During fiscal 2004, the Company began to offer products on pay-on-scan (“POS”) arrangement with one of its customers. For POS inventory, revenue is recognized when the customer has notified the Company that it has sold a specifically identified product to another person or entity. POS inventory represents inventory held on consignment at customer locations. This customer bears the risk of loss of any consigned product from any cause whatsoever from the time possession is taken until a third party customer purchases the product or its absence is noted in a cycle or physical inventory count.
 
    The Company also maintains accounts to accrue for estimated returns and to track unit and core returns. The accrual for anticipated returns reduces revenues and accounts receivable. The estimated unit sales returns and estimated core returns account balances are as follows:
                 
    June 30,   March 31,
    2006   2006
Estimated sales returns
  $ 833,000     $ 977,000  
Estimated core inventory returns
  $ 6,078,000     $ 6,457,000

6.   Net Income Per Share
 
    Basic income per share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted-average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. Diluted income per share includes the effect, if any, from the potential exercise or conversion of securities, such as stock options and warrants, which would result in the issuance of incremental shares of common stock.
 
    The following presents a reconciliation of basic and diluted net income (loss) per share.

    The effect of dilutive options and warrants excludes 17,375 options with exercise prices ranging from $13.80 to $19.13 per share for the three months ended June 30, 2006 and 1,060,318 options with exercise prices ranging from $0.93 to $19.13 per share for the three months ended June 30, 2005 — all of which were anti-dilutive.
 
    The calculation of dilutive earnings per share for the three months ended June 30, 2006 has been adjusted to incorporate the amendments to Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Statement No. 128, “Earnings Per Share” (FAS 128) required under FAS 123R.
 
7.   New Accounting Pronouncements
 
    In June 2006, the FASB issued FASB Interpretation No. 48, “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes, an interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109” (FIN 48). FIN 48 clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in an enterprise’s financial statements and prescribes a recognition threshold for financial statement recognition and a measurement attribute for a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. This Interpretation also provides related guidance on derecognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods and disclosure. FIN 48 is effective for the Company beginning April 1, 2007. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this standard.
NOTE D — Stock Options and Share-Based Payments
     Effective April 1, 2006, the Company adopted Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123 (revised 2004), “Share-Based Payment”, (FAS 123R) using the modified prospective application method of transition for all its stock-based compensation plans. Accordingly, while the reported results for the three months ended June 30, 2006 reflect the adoption of FAS 123R, prior year amounts have not been restated.
     The following table presents the impact the adoption of FAS 123R had on the unaudited consolidated statement of operations for the three months ended June 30, 2006.

     Prior to the adoption of FAS 123R, the Company accounted for stock-based employee compensation as prescribed by Accounting Principles Board Opinion (“APB”) No. 25, “Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees,” and adopted the disclosure provisions of SFAS 123, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation,” and SFAS 148, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation-Transition and Disclosure-an amendment of SFAS 123.”
     Under the provisions of APB No. 25, compensation cost for stock options is measured as the excess, if, any, of the market price of the Company’s common stock at the date of the grant over the amount an employee must pay to acquire the stock. SFAS 123 requires pro forma disclosures of net income and net income per share as if the fair value based method accounting for stock-based awards had been applied. Under the fair value based method, compensation cost is recorded based on the value of the award at the grant date and is recognized over the service period. The following table presents pro forma net income for the three months ended June 30, 2005 as if compensation costs associated with the Company’s option arrangements had been determined in accordance with SFAS 123.

     In November 2005, the FASB issued Staff Position (FSP) FAS 123 (R)-3, “Transition Election Related to Accounting for the Tax Effects of Share-Based Payment Awards” (“FSP 123 (R)-3”). FSP 123 (R)-3 provides an elective alternative transition method for calculating the pool of excess tax benefits available to absorb tax deficiencies recognized subsequent to the adoption of FAS 123R. Companies may take up to one year from the effective date of FAS 123R to evaluate the available transition alternatives and make a one-time election as to which method to adopt. The Company is currently in the process of evaluating the alternative methods. In the interim, the excess tax benefits for the three months ended June 30, 2006 of $28,000 (determined based on the requirements of paragraph 81 of FAS 123R) are presented as a cash outflow from operations and a cash inflow from financing activities.
     The fair value of stock options used to compute net income and net income per share for the current period and the pro forma net income and pro forma net income per share disclosures for prior periods is estimated using the Black-Scholes option pricing model, which was developed for use in estimating the fair value of traded options that have no vesting restrictions and are fully transferable. This model requires the input of subjective assumptions including the expected volatility of the underlying stock and the expected holding period of the option. These subjective assumptions are based on both historical and other information. Changes in the values assumed and used in the model can materially affect the estimate of fair value. There were no stock options granted during the three months ended June 30, 2006 or 2005.
     The table below summarizes the Black-Scholes option pricing model assumptions used to derive the weighted average fair value of stock options granted in prior periods which vested during the three months ending June 30, 2006, and thus were used to calculate the share-based compensation recorded in the current quarter.

     In January 1994, the Company adopted the 1994 Stock Option Plan (the “1994 Plan”), under which it was authorized to issue non-qualified stock options and incentive stock options to key employees, directors and consultants. After a number of shareholder-approved increases to this plan, options to purchase 1,155,000 shares of common stock were authorized for grant under the 1994 Plan. The term and vesting period of options granted is determined by a committee of the Board of Directors with a term not to exceed ten years. As of June 30, 2006, options to purchase 556,500 shares of common stock were outstanding under the 1994 Plan and no additional shares of common stock were available for option grants.
     At the Company’s Annual Meeting of Shareholders held on December 17, 2003, the shareholders approved the Company’s 2003 Long-Term Incentive Plan (“Incentive Plan”) which had been adopted by the Company’s Board of Directors on October 31, 2003. Under the Incentive Plan, a total of 1,200,000 shares of the Company’s common stock were reserved for grants of Incentive Awards and all of the Company’s employees are eligible to participate. The 2003 Incentive Plan will terminate on October 31, 2013, unless terminated earlier by the Company’s Board of Directors. As of June 30, 2006, options to purchase 722,283 shares of common stock were outstanding under the Incentive Plan and options to purchase an additional 470,717 shares of common stock were available for option grants.
     In November 2004, the Company’s shareholders approved the 2004 Non-Employee Director Stock Option Plan (the “2004 Plan”) which provides for the granting of options to non-employee directors to purchase a total of 175,000 shares of the Company’s common stock. As of June 30, 2006, options to purchase 59,000 shares of common stock were outstanding and options to purchase an additional 116,000 shares of common stock were available for option grants under the 2004 Plan.

NOTE F — Inventory Unreturned
     Inventory unreturned represents the average value of cores and finished goods shipped to customers and expected to be returned, stated at the lower of cost or market. Upon product shipment, the Company reduces the inventory account for the amount of product shipped and establishes the inventory unreturned asset account for that portion of the shipment that is expected to be returned by the customer. Inventory unreturned is comprised of the following:
                 
    June 30,     March 31,

NOTE G — Multi-Year Exclusive Arrangement and Inventory Transaction with Largest Customer
     In May 2004, the Company entered into an agreement with its largest customer to become the customer’s primary supplier of import alternators and starters for its eight distribution centers. As part of this four-year agreement, the Company entered into a pay-on-scan (POS) arrangement with the customer. Under this arrangement, the customer is not obligated to purchase the POS merchandise the Company has shipped to the customer until that merchandise is ultimately sold to the end user. As part of this agreement the Company purchased approximately $24,000,000 of the customer’s then-current inventory of import starters and alternators transitioning to the POS program at the price the customer originally paid for this inventory. The Company paid for this inventory over 24 months, without interest, through the issuance of monthly credits against receivables generated by sales to the customer. The contract requires that the Company continue to meet its historical performance and competitive standards.
     The Company did not record the inventory acquired from the customer as part of this transaction (the “transition inventory”) as an asset because it does not meet the description of an asset provided in FASB Concepts Statement No. 6, “Elements of Financial Statements” (“CON 6”). Therefore, the Company does not recognize revenues from the customer’s POS sales of the transition inventory.
     The Company has agreed to issue credits in an amount equal to the transition inventory. Based on the description of a liability in CON 6, the Company recognizes the amount of its obligation to the customer as the customer sells the transition inventory and recognizes a payable to the Company. Since the inception of this arrangement, the customer has sold $21,995,000 of the transition inventory and the Company has issued credits of $24,000,000, resulting in a net due from the customer of $2,005,000, as reflected on the Company’s June 30, 2006 balance sheet.
     As the issuance of credits to the customer generally lagged sales of the transition inventory during the initial phase of this arrangement, the Company received cash in the early months which was then offset by lower cash collections resulting from credits issued to the customer in excess of the sales of transition inventory. The final credit of $3,910,000 was issued during the three months ended June 30, 2006.
     In connection with this POS arrangement, the Company recognized a liability of approximately $460,000 to reflect that the price the Company paid for the cores included within the non-MPA portion of the transition inventory was greater than the market value of these cores.
     The Company also agreed to cooperate with the customer to use reasonable commercial efforts to convert all products sold by MPA to the customer to the POS arrangement by April 2006. As the conversion was not accomplished by April 2006, the Company is required by the agreement to acquire an additional $24,000,000 of inventory and to provide the customer with an additional $24,000,000 of credit memos to be issued and applied in equal monthly installments to current receivables over a 24-month period ending April 2008. However, the Company is currently in discussions with the customer concerning the POS arrangement and it is uncertain if or how this arrangement might be modified.

NOTE H — Long Term Customer Contracts; Marketing Allowances
     The Company has long-term agreements with substantially all of its major customers. Under these agreements, which typically have initial terms of at least four years, the Company is designated as the exclusive or primary supplier for specified categories of remanufactured alternators and starters. In consideration for its designation as a customer’s exclusive or primary supplier, the Company typically provides the customer with a package of marketing incentives. These incentives differ from contract to contract and can include (i) the issuance of a specified amount of credits against receivables in accordance with a schedule set forth in the relevant contract, (ii) support for a particular customer’s research or marketing efforts on a scheduled basis, (iii) discounts granted in connection with each individual shipment of product and (iv) other marketing, research, store expansion or product development support. These contracts typically require that the Company meet ongoing performance, quality and fulfillment requirements, and its contract with one of the largest automobile manufacturers in the world includes a provision (standard in this manufacturer’s vendor agreements) granting the manufacturer the right to terminate the agreement at any time for any reason. The Company’s contracts with major customers expire at various dates ranging from May 2008 through December 2012.
     The Company typically grants its customers marketing allowances in connection with these customers’ purchase of goods. The Company records the cost of all marketing allowances provided to its customers in accordance with EITF 01-9, “Accounting for Consideration Given by a Vendor to a Customer.” Such allowances include sales incentives and concessions and typically consist of the following three types: (i) allowances which may only be applied against future purchases and are recorded as a reduction to revenues in accordance with a schedule set forth in the long term contract, (ii) allowances related to a single exchange of product that are recorded as a reduction of revenues at the time the related revenues are recorded or when such incentives are offered and (iii) allowances that are made in connection with the purchase of inventory from a customer.
     The following table presents the breakout of marketing allowances recorded as a reduction to revenues in the three months ended June 30:
                 
    2006     2005  
Marketing allowances incurred under long-term customer contracts:
  $ 754,000     $ 3,090,000  
Marketing allowances related to a single exchange of product:
    3,335,000       2,297,000  
Marketing allowances related to core inventory purchase obligations:
    453,000       312,000  
 
           
Total marketing allowances recorded as a reduction of revenues:
  $ 4,542,000     $ 5,699,000  
 
           
     The following table presents the commitments to incur marketing allowances which will be recognized as a charge against revenue in accordance with the terms of the relevant long-term customer contracts:

     The Company has also entered into agreements to purchase certain customers’ core inventory and to issue credits to pay for that inventory according to an agreed upon schedule set forth in the agreements. Under the largest of these agreements, the Company agreed to acquire core inventory by issuing $10,300,000 of credits over a five-year period that began in March 2005 (subject to adjustment if customer sales decrease in any quarter by more than an agreed upon percentage) on a straight-line basis. As the Company issues these credits, it establishes a long-term asset account for the value of the core inventory estimated to be in customer hands and subject to repurchase upon agreement termination, and reduces revenue by recognizing the amount by which the credit exceeds the estimated core inventory value as a marketing allowance. The amounts charged against revenues under this arrangement in the three months ended June 30, 2006 and 2005 were $338,000 and $312,000, respectively. As of June 30, 2006, the long-term asset account was approximately $1,021,000. The Company will regularly review the long-term asset account for impairment and make any necessary adjustment to the carrying value of this asset. As of June 30, 2006,

NOTE J — Line of Credit; Factoring Agreements
     In April 2006, the Company entered into an amended credit agreement with the bank that increased its credit availability from $15,000,000 to $25,000,000, extended the expiration date of the credit facility from October 2, 2006 to October 1, 2008 and changed the manner in which the margin over the benchmark interest rate is calculated. Starting June 30, 2006, the interest rate fluctuates based upon the (i) bank’s reference rate or (ii) LIBOR, as adjusted to take into account any bank reserve requirements, plus a margin dependant upon the leverage ratio as noted below:
         
    Leverage ratio as of the end of the fiscal quarter
    Greater than or    
Base Interest Rate Selected by Borrower   equal to 1.50 to 1.00   Less than 1.50 to 1.00
Banks Reference Rate, plus
  0.0% per year   -0.25% per year
Bank’s LIBOR Rate, plus
  2.0% per year   1.75% per year
     The bank holds a security interest in substantially all of the Company’s assets. As of June 30, 2006 and March 31, 2006 the Company had reserved $4,364,000 of this revolving line of credit for standby letters of credit for worker’s compensation insurance and had borrowed $14,900,000 and $6,300,000, respectively, under this line of credit.

     The credit agreement as amended includes various financial conditions, including minimum levels of tangible net worth, cash flow, fixed charge coverage ratio, maximum leverage ratios and a number of restrictive covenants, including prohibitions against additional indebtedness, payment of dividends, pledge of assets and capital expenditures as well as loans to officers and/or affiliates. In addition, it is an event of default under the loan agreement if Selwyn Joffe is no longer the Company’s CEO. At June 30, 2006, the Company was in compliance with each of these covenants.
     Under the amended credit agreement, the Company has agreed to pay a quarterly fee, commencing on June 30, 2006 of 0.375% per year if the leverage ratio as of the last day of the previous fiscal quarter was greater than or equal to 1.50 to 1.00 or 0.25% per year if the leverage ratio is less than 1.50 to 1.00 as of the last day of the previous fiscal quarter. This fee is applied to any difference between the $25,000,000 commitment and the average of the daily outstanding amount of credit the Company actually uses during each quarter. A fee of $125,000 was charged by the bank in order to complete the amendment. The fee is payable in three installments of $41,666, one on the date of the amendment to the credit agreement, one on or before February 1, 2007 and one on or before February 1, 2008.
     The bank credit agreement was further amended in August 2006. For additional information, see Note M – Subsequent Events.
     Under two separate agreements executed on July 30, 2004 and August 21, 2003 with two customers and their respective banks, the Company may sell those customers’ receivables to those banks at a discount agreed-upon at the time the receivables are sold. One of the agreements was amended on April 5, 2006 to provide for a different discounting agent, which resulted in a reduction in the discount rate. These discount arrangements have allowed the Company to accelerate collection of the customers’ receivables aggregating $15,529,000 and $17,951,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2006 and 2005, respectively, by an average of 191 days and 194 days, respectively. On an annualized basis the weighted average discount rate on the receivables sold to the banks during the three months ended June 30, 2006 and 2005 was 6.7% and 5.4%, respectively. The amount of the discount on these receivables, $504,000 and $506,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2006 and 2005, respectively, was recorded as interest expense.
NOTE K — Comprehensive Income
     SFAS 130, “Reporting Comprehensive Income,” established standards for the reporting and display of comprehensive income and its components in a full set of general purpose financial statements. Comprehensive income is defined as the change in equity during a period resulting from transactions and other events and circumstances from non-owner sources. The Company’s total comprehensive income consists of net income and foreign currency translation adjustments.

NOTE L — Financial Risk Management and Derivatives
     Purchases and expenses denominated in currencies other than the U.S. dollar, which are primarily related to the Company’s production facilities overseas, expose the Company to market risk from material movements in foreign exchange rates between the U.S. dollar and the foreign currency. The Company’s primary risk exposure is from changes in the rate between the U.S. dollar and the Mexican peso related to the operation of the Company’s facility in Mexico. In August 2005, the Company began to enter into forward foreign exchange contracts to exchange U.S. dollars for Mexican pesos. The extent to which forward foreign exchange contracts are used is modified periodically in response to management’s estimate of market conditions and the terms and length of specific purchase requirements to fund those overseas facilities.
     The Company enters into forward foreign exchange contracts in order to reduce the impact of foreign currency fluctuations and not to engage in currency speculation. The use of derivative financial instruments allows the

Table of Contents

Company to reduce its exposure to the risk that the eventual cash outflow resulting from funding the expenses of the foreign operations will be materially affected by changes in exchange rates. The Company does not hold or issue financial instruments for trading purposes. The forward foreign exchange contracts are designated for forecasted expenditure requirements to fund the overseas operations. These contracts expire in a year or less.
     The forward foreign exchange contracts entered into require the Company to exchange Mexican pesos for U.S. dollars at maturity, at rates agreed at the inception of the contracts. The counterparty to this derivative transaction is a major financial institution with investment grade or better credit rating; however, the Company is exposed to credit risk with this institution. The credit risk is limited to the potential unrealized gains (which offset currency fluctuations adverse to the Company) in any such contract should this counterparty fail to perform as contracted. Any changes in the fair values of foreign exchange contracts are reflected in current period earnings and accounted for as an increase or offset to general and administrative expenses. For the three months ended June 30, 2006, the Company recognized additional general and administrative expenses of $71,000 associated with these foreign exchange contracts.
NOTE M — Subsequent Events
Amendment to Bank Credit Facility
     In August 2006, the Company entered into an amended credit agreement with the bank. This amendment increased the credit availability from $25,000,000 to $35,000,000, increased the minimum fixed charge coverage ratio and the maximum leverage ratio and increased the amount of allowable capital expenditures. As a result of the amendment, the unused facility fee is now applied against any difference between the $35,000,000 commitment and the average daily outstanding amount of credit the Company actually uses during each quarter. The bank charged an amendment fee of $30,000 which was paid on the effective date of the amendment to the credit agreement.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
     The following discussion and analysis presents factors that we believe are relevant to an assessment and understanding of our consolidated financial position and results of operations. This financial and business analysis should be read in conjunction with our March 31, 2006 consolidated financial statements included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K/A filed on February 12, 2007.
Disclosure Regarding Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995
     This report contains certain forward-looking statements with respect to our future performance that involve risks and uncertainties. Various factors could cause actual results to differ materially from those projected in such statements. These factors include, but are not limited to: concentration of sales to certain customers, changes in our relationship with any of our customers, including the increasing customer pressure for lower prices and more favorable payment and other terms, the increasing strain on our cash position, our ability to achieve positive cash flows from operations, potential future changes in our accounting policies that may be made as a result of an SEC review of our previously filed public reports, restatements of our previously issued financial statements to correct errors in the application of generally accepted accounting principles, lower revenues than anticipated from new and existing contracts, our failure to meet the financial covenants or the other obligations set forth in our bank credit agreement and the bank’s refusal to waive any such defaults, any meaningful difference between projected production needs and ultimate sales to our customers, increases in interest rates, changes in the financial condition of any of our major customers, the impact of high gasoline prices, the potential for changes in consumer spending, consumer preferences and general economic conditions, increased competition in the automotive parts industry, difficulty in obtaining component parts or increases in the costs of those parts, political or economic instability in any of the foreign countries where we conduct operations, unforeseen increases in operating costs and other factors discussed herein and in our other filings with the SEC.
Management Overview
     Sales in the retail and traditional warehouse and professional installer markets in our remanufactured product category in North America have been stable. We operate in a very competitive environment, where our customers expect us to provide quality products, in a timely manner at a low cost. To meet these expectations while maintaining or improving gross margins, we have focused on regular changes and improvements to make our manufacturing processes more efficient. Our movement to lean manufacturing cells, increased production in Malaysia and northern Mexico, utilization of advanced inventory tracking technology and development of in-store testing equipment reflect this focus.
     We make it a priority to focus our efforts on those customers we believe will be successful in the industry and will provide a strong distribution base for our future. Our sales are concentrated among a very few customers, and these key customers regularly seek more favorable pricing, marketing allowances, delivery and payment terms as a condition to the continuation of existing business or expansion of a particular customer’s business.
     To partially offset some of these customer demands, we have sought to position ourselves as a preferred supplier by working closely with our key customers to satisfy their particular needs and, in most cases, entering into longer-term preferred supplier agreements. While these longer-term agreements strengthen our customer relationships and improve our overall business base, they require a substantial amount of working capital to meet ramped up production demands and typically include marketing and other allowances that meaningfully limit the near-term revenues and associated cash flow from these new or expanded arrangements.
     To grow our revenue base, we have been seeking to broaden our retail and traditional distribution networks and have increased our sales to the traditional warehouse and professional installer markets. We continue to expand our product offerings, including offering new units when needed to provide comprehensive coverage for our customers and to respond to changes in the marketplace, including those related to the increasing complexity of automotive electronics.

Critical Accounting Policies
     We prepare our consolidated financial statements in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles, or GAAP. Our significant accounting policies are discussed in detail below, in Note C to our unaudited consolidated financial statements included in this Form 10-QA and in Note C to our consolidated financial statements included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K/A filed on February 12, 2007.
     In preparing our consolidated financial statements, it is necessary that we use estimates and assumptions for matters that are inherently uncertain. We base our estimates on historical experiences and reasonable assumptions. Our use of estimates and assumptions affects the reported amounts of assets, liabilities and the amount and timing of revenues and expenses we recognize for and during the reporting period. Actual results may differ from estimates.
Revenue Recognition
     We recognize revenue when our performance is complete, and all of the following criteria established by Staff Accounting Bulletin (“SAB”) No. 104, Revenue Recognition have been met:
    Persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists,
 
    Delivery has occurred or services have been rendered,
 
    The seller’s price to the buyer is fixed or determinable, and
 
    Collectibility is reasonably assured.
     For products shipped free-on-board (“FOB”) shipping point, revenue is recognized on the date of shipment. For products shipped FOB destination, revenues are recognized two days after the date of shipment based on our experience regarding the length of transit duration. We include shipping and handling charges in the gross invoice price to customers and classify the total amount as revenue in accordance with Emerging Issues Task Force (“EITF”) 00-10, “Accounting for Shipping and Handling Fees and Costs.” Shipping and handling costs are recorded in cost of sales.
Revenue Recognition; Net-of-Core-Value Basis
     The price of a finished product sold to customers is generally comprised of separately invoiced amounts for the core included in the product (“core value”) and for the value added by remanufacturing (“unit value”). The unit value is recorded as revenue based on our then current price list, net of applicable discounts and allowances. In accordance with our net-of-core-value revenue recognition policy, we do not recognize the core value as revenue when the finished products are sold.
Stock Adjustments; General Right of Return
     Under the terms of certain agreements with our customers and industry practice, our customers from time to time are allowed stock adjustments when their inventory quantity of certain product lines exceeds the anticipated quantity of sales to end-user customers. Stock adjustment returns are not recorded until they are authorized by us and they do not occur at any specific time during the year. We provide for a monthly allowance to address the anticipated impact of stock adjustments based on customer’s inventory levels, movement and timing of stock adjustments. Our estimate of the impact on revenues and cost of goods sold of future inventory overstocks is made at the time revenue is recognized for individual sales and is based on the following factors:
    The amount of the credit granted to a customer for inventory overstocks is negotiated between our customers and us and may be different than the total sales value of the inventory returned based on our price lists;
 
    The product mix of anticipated inventory overstocks often varies from the product mix sold; and
 
    The standard costs of inventory received will vary based on the part numbers received.

23


Table of Contents

     In addition to stock adjustment returns, we also allow our customers to return goods to us that their end-user customers have returned to them. This general right of return is allowed regardless of whether the returned item is defective. Depending on the specific customer and product mix, we seek to limit the aggregate of customer returns, including slow moving and other inventory, to less than 20% of unit sales. We provide for such anticipated returns of inventory in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 48, “Revenue Recognition When Right of Return Exists” by reducing revenue and cost of sales for the unit value based on a historical return analysis and information obtained from customers about current stock levels.
Core Inventory Valuation
     We value cores at the lower of cost or market. To take into account the seasonality of our business, the market value of cores is recalculated at March and September of each year. The recalculation in March reflects the higher seasonal demand which typically precedes the warm summer months and the recalculation in September reflects the lower seasonal demand which normally precedes the colder months. Because March generally represents the high point in the core broker market, we revalue cores using the high core broker price. In September, we revalue our cores to high core broker price plus a factor to allow for the temporary decrease in market value during the slower season.
Accounting for Under Returns of Cores
     Based on our experience, contractual arrangements with customers and inventory management practices, we receive and purchase a used but remanufacturable core from customers for more than 90% of the remanufactured alternators or starters we sell to customers. However, both the sales and receipt of cores throughout the year are seasonal with the receipt of cores lagging sales. Our customers typically return less cores during the months of April through September (the first six months of the fiscal year) and return more cores during the months of October through March (the last six months of the fiscal year). In accordance with our net-of-core-value revenue recognition policy, when we ship a product, we record an amount to the inventory unreturned account for the standard cost of the core expected to be returned. We generally limit core returns to the number of similar cores previously shipped to each customer.
     When we ship a product, we invoice certain customers for the core portion of the product at full sales price. For cores invoiced at full sales price, we recognize core charge revenue based upon an estimate of the rate at which our customers will pay cash for cores in lieu of returning cores for credits.
Sales Incentives
     We provide various marketing allowances to our customers, including sales incentives and concessions. Voluntary marketing allowances related to a single exchange of product are recorded as a reduction of revenues at the time the related revenues are recorded or when such incentives are offered. Other marketing allowances, which may only be applied against future purchases, are recorded as a reduction to revenues in accordance with a schedule set forth in the relevant contract. Sales incentive amounts are recorded based on the value of the incentive provided.
Accounting for Deferred Taxes
     The valuation of deferred tax assets and liabilities is based upon management’s estimate of current and future taxable income using the accounting guidance in SFAS 109, “Accounting for Income Taxes.” As of June 30, 2006 and 2005 management determined that there was no valuation allowance necessary for deferred tax assets.
Financial Risk Management and Derivatives
     We are exposed to market risk from material movements in foreign exchange rates between the U.S. dollar and the currencies of the foreign countries in which we operate. Our primary risk relates to changes in the rates between the U.S. dollar and the Mexican peso associated with our growing operations in Mexico. To mitigate the risk of currency fluctuation between the U.S. dollar and the Mexican peso, in August 2005 we began to enter into forward foreign exchange contracts to exchange U.S. dollars for Mexican pesos. The extent to which we use forward foreign

24


Table of Contents

exchange contracts is periodically reviewed in light of our estimate of market conditions and the terms and length of anticipated requirements. The use of derivative financial instruments allows us to reduce our exposure to the risk that the eventual net cash outflow resulting from funding the expenses of the foreign operations will be materially affected by changes in the exchange rates. We do not engage in currency speculation or hold or issue financial instruments for trading purposes. These contracts expire in a year or less. Any changes in fair values of foreign exchange contracts are accounted for as an increase or offset to general and administrative expenses in current period earnings. For the three months ended June 30, 2006, the net effect of the foreign exchange contracts was to increase general and administrative expenses by approximately $71,000.
Share-based Payments
     Effective April 1, 2006, we adopted Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123 (revised 2004), “Share-Based Payment”, (FAS 123R) using the modified prospective application method of transition for all our stock-based compensation plans. Accordingly, while the reported results for the three months ended June 30, 2006 reflect the adoption of FAS 123R, prior year amounts have not been restated.
     The following table presents the impact the adoption of FAS 123R had on our unaudited consolidated statement of operations for the three months ended June 30, 2006.
         
    Impact of  
Three Months Ended June 30, 2006   Adoption

Basic net income per share
  $ (0.01 )
 
     
Diluted net income per share
  $ (0.01 )
 
     
     Prior to the adoption of FAS 123R, we accounted for stock-based employee compensation as prescribed by Accounting Principles Board Opinion (“APB”) No. 25, “Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees,” and adopted the disclosure provisions of SFAS 123, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation,” and SFAS 148, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation-Transition and Disclosure-an amendment of SFAS 123.”
     Under the provisions of APB No. 25, compensation cost for stock options is measured as the excess, if, any, of the market price of our common stock at the date of the grant over the amount an employee must pay to acquire the stock. Under the fair value based method, compensation cost is recorded based on the value of the award at the grant date and is recognized over the service period.
     As of June 30, 2006, approximately $628,000 of unrecognized compensation cost related to the nonvested stock options. This cost is expected to be recognized over the remaining weighted average vesting period of 1.4 years.
New Accounting Pronouncements
     In June 2006, the FASB issued FASB Interpretation No. 48, “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes, an interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109” (FIN 48). FIN 48 clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in an enterprise’s financial statements and prescribes a recognition threshold for financial statement recognition and a measurement attribute for a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. This Interpretation also provides related guidance on derecognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods and disclosure. FIN 48 is effective for us beginning April 1, 2007. We are currently evaluating the impact of this standard.
Results of Operations for the three months ended June 30, 2006 and 2005
     The following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto appearing elsewhere herein.

(1)   Annualized finished goods turnover for the fiscal quarter is calculated by multiplying cost of sales for the quarter by 4 and dividing the result by the average between beginning and ending finished goods inventory for the fiscal quarter. We believe this provides a useful measure of our ability to turn production into revenues.
 
(2)   Calculated on the same basis as note (1) except for the exclusion in the denominator of pay-on-scan inventory in this calculation. We believe this provides a useful measure of our ability to manage inventory which is within our physical control.
 
(3)   Annualized return on equity is computed as net income (loss) for the fiscal quarter multiplied by 4 and dividing the result by beginning shareholders’ equity and measures our ability to invest shareholders’ funds profitably.

     Our results for the fiscal quarter ended June 30, 2006 reflect the investments we have made to implement our strategy. During the June 2005 fiscal quarter, we opened our new manufacturing facility in Mexico. One year later, this facility has over 500 employees and provides 40% of our production. We continue to grow the new business we have received from one of the world’s largest automobile manufacturers and have added another large automotive retailer to our customer base. While we have incurred significant costs to achieve these objectives, we believe these investments have helped position us to capitalize on the market opportunities that we continue to see.
     Net Sales. Gross sales for the three months ended June 30, 2006 increased by $5,283,000 over gross sales in the three months ended June 30, 2005 primarily due to increases in sales to our retail customers. Marketing allowances for the quarter ending June 30, 2006 decreased $1,157,000 to $4,542,000 from $5,699,000 for the quarter ending June 30, 2005. The decrease was due to a front-loaded marketing allowance of $2,570,000 we provided to a customer during the first quarter of the prior fiscal year in connection with a new five-year contract. This decrease was partially offset by increases in marketing allowances to other customers in the quarter ending June 30, 2006. Marketing allowances associated with customer contracts are expected to increase during the remainder of fiscal 2007. During the three months ended June 30, 2006, we reduced the reserve for anticipated returns by $463,000 resulting in an increase in sales for that three month period of the same amount. Customer pricing and other non-marketing discounts, which reduce net sales, decreased by approximately $738,000 during the three months ended June 30, 2006. These increases in net sales were partially offset a reduction of $422,000 in royalty income from the three months ending June 30, 2005 to the three months ending June 30, 2006. As a result of these factors, our net

26


Table of Contents

sales for the three months ended June 30, 2006 were $27,424,000, an increase of $7,103,000 or 34.9% over net sales for the three months ended June 30, 2005 of $20,321,000.
     Cost of Goods Sold. Cost of goods sold as a percentage of net sales decreased for the three months ended June 30, 2006 to 73.9% from 87.6% for the three months ended June 30, 2005 causing an increase in the gross profit percentage to 26.1% in the quarter ending June 30, 2006 from 12.4% in the quarter ending June 30, 2005. Approximately 9.8% of the increase in gross profit was due to the front-loaded marketing allowance noted above which offset net sales in the first quarter of the prior fiscal year but did not impact the cost of goods associated with those sales. Cost of goods sold in the quarter ending June 30, 2005 was also adversely impacted by the higher level of non-marketing discounts, the higher per unit manufacturing costs incurred to meet demands of the new business we received, including increased overtime and temporary labor costs, and the manufacturing inefficiencies from opening our Mexican facility.
     General and Administrative. Our general and administrative expense for the three months ended June 30, 2006 was $3,072,000, which represents a decrease of $938,000 or 23.4%, from the general and administrative expense for the three months ended June 30, 2005 of $4,010,000. This decrease is principally due to the outside professional and consulting fees we incurred in the quarter ending June 30, 2005 associated with the SEC’s review of our SEC filings and the related restatement of our financial statements. Professional and consulting fees included in general and administrative expenses decreased approximately $729,000 from $1,235,000 during the three months ended June 30, 2005 to $506,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2006. General and administrative expenses related to our production facility in Mexico were approximately $158,000 higher during the three months ending June 30, 2005 as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2006 due to additional start-up costs related to the opening of the facility in June 2005. Partially offsetting these decreases in general and administrative expenses was the increase in share-based compensation of $115,000 posted during the quarter ending June 30, 2006 in compliance with the new Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Statement No. 123 (revised December 2004), “Share-based Payment” (FAS 123R). See “Note D – Stock Options and Share-based Payments” in the accompanying unaudited condensed notes to the consolidated financial statements for the three months ending June 30, 2006 and 2005.
     Sales and Marketing. Our sales and marketing expenses increased by $40,000 or 4.6% to $905,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2006 from $865,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2005. This increase is principally attributable to an increase of approximately $185,000 in commission and wage related expenses in the three months ending June 30, 2006 incurred to support customer sales initiatives and the new business we received. This increase was partially offset by the $119,000 in catalog expenses incurred during the quarter ending June 30, 2005, but not incurred during the quarter ending June 30, 2006.
     Research and Development. Our research and development expenses increased by $102,000, or 32.5%, to $416,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2006 from $314,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2005. This increase, primarily in wage related expenses, was attributable to the increased costs of supporting the new business we obtained.
     Interest Expense. For the three months ended June 30, 2006, interest expense, net of interest income, was $822,000. This represents an increase of $274,000 over net interest expense of $548,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2005. This increase was principally attributable to an increase in the average outstanding balance on the line of credit and the increase in short-term interest rates on both the line of credit and on our factoring agreements. These increases were partially offset by a decline in the aggregate amount of receivables that were discounted during the most recent fiscal quarter. Interest expense is comprised principally of interest paid under our bank credit agreement, discounts recognized in connection with our receivables factoring arrangements and interest on our capital leases.
     Income Tax. For the three months ended June 30, 2006 and June 30, 2005, we recognized income tax expense of $782,000 and income tax benefit of $1,250,000, respectively. During fiscal 2006, we utilized all of our net operating loss carry forwards available for income tax purposes. As a result, we anticipate that our future cash flow will be more significantly impacted by our future tax payments.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
     We have financed our operations through cash flows from operating activities, the receivable discount programs we have established with two of our customers, a capital financing sale-leaseback transaction with our bank, and the use of our bank credit facility. Our working capital needs have increased significantly in light of the ramped up production demands associated with our new or expanded customer arrangements and the adverse impact that the marketing and other allowances that we have typically granted our customers in connection with these new or expanded relationships have on the near-term revenues and associated cash flow from these arrangements. Since the sales program to one of the world’s largest automobile manufacturers under an agreement we signed with this customer during the fourth quarter of fiscal 2005 was not fully launched in the expected timeframe, the inventory buildup we made in connection with this new agreement put an additional strain on our working capital. Because our net operating loss carry forwards for tax purposes have been utilized, we anticipate that our future cash flow will be negatively impacted by our future tax payments. Finally while our cash position did benefit from the way in which the purchase of the transition inventory associated with our POS arrangement has been structured, as anticipated, satisfaction of the credit due the customer through the issuance of credits against that customer’s receivables has most recently had a negative impact on our cash flow. Although we cannot provide assurance, we believe our cash and short term investments on hand, cash flows from operations and the availability under our amended bank credit facility will be sufficient to satisfy our currently expected working capital needs, capital lease commitments and capital expenditure obligations over the next year. We may however, seek additional financing to pursue future business opportunities.
Working Capital and Net Cash Flow
     At June 30, 2006, we had working capital of $46,153,000, a ratio of current assets to current liabilities of 1.9:1, and cash and cash equivalents of $97,000, which compares to working capital of $46,430,000, a ratio of current assets to current liabilities of 2.1:1, and cash and cash equivalents of $400,000 at March 31, 2006.
     Because of the factors discussed under the caption “Liquidity and Capital Resources”, our cash position has been strained. Net cash used in operating activities was $7,139,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2006, as compared to net cash used in operating activities of $3,978,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2005. The structure of our purchase of transition inventory associated with our POS arrangement had a significant impact on our cash flow. During the three months ended June 30, 2006, this arrangement reduced our cash flow from operations by $3,798,000. During the three months ended June 30, 2005, this arrangement decreased our cash flow from operations by $2,203,000. The total of our inventory and inventory unreturned increased by $6,192,000 during the three months ended June 30, 2006, primarily as a result of our inventory build up to meet the initial order from a new retail customer. This increase was partially offset by a net increase in accounts payable and accrued liabilities of $3,004,000. The net cash used in operating activities was also positively impacted by our net income during the current fiscal quarter of $1,169,000, compared to net loss of $1,964,000 during the June 2005 fiscal quarter.
     We used net cash in investing activities of $1,299,000 in the three months ended June 30, 2006. These investing activities were primarily related to capital expenditures of $1,278,000 during this period. We expect to use cash in investing activities for the balance of fiscal 2006.
     During the three months ended June 30, 2006 we obtained $8,375,000 from financing activities primarily related to the drawing of additional amounts under our bank credit agreement. These funds were primarily used to make the final payment of $3,910,000 under our multi-year POS agreement with our largest customer, to purchase property, plant and equipment and to build up our inventory to meet the initial order from a new retail customer.
Capital Resources
Line of Credit
     In April 2006, we entered into an amended credit agreement with our bank that increased our credit availability from $15,000,000 to $25,000,000, extended the expiration date of the credit facility from October 2, 2006 to October 1, 2008, and changed the manner in which the margin over the benchmark interest rate is calculated. Starting June 30, 2006, the interest rate fluctuates based upon the (i) bank’s reference rate or (ii) LIBOR, as adjusted to take into account any bank reserve requirements, plus a margin dependant upon the leverage ratio as noted below:

Table of Contents

                 
    Leverage ratio as of the end of the fiscal quarter  
    Greater than or        
Base Interest Rate Selected by Borrower   equal to 1.50 to 1.00     Less than 1.50 to 1.00  
Banks Reference Rate, plus
  0.0% per year   -0.25% per year
Bank’s LIBOR Rate, plus
  2.0% per year   1.75% per year
     The bank holds a security interest in substantially all of our assets. As of June 30, 2006, we had reserved $4,364,000 of our line for standby letters of credit for worker’s compensation insurance and had borrowed $14,900,000 under this revolving line of credit.
     The credit agreement as amended includes various financial conditions, including minimum levels of tangible net worth, cash flow, fixed charge coverage ratio, maximum leverage ratios and a number of restrictive covenants, including prohibitions against additional indebtedness, payment of dividends, pledge of assets and capital expenditures as well as loans to officers and/or affiliates. In addition, it is an event of default under the loan agreement if Selwyn Joffe is no longer our CEO. As of June 30, 2006, we were in compliance with each of the covenants of the credit agreement.
     Under the amended credit agreement, we have also agreed to pay a quarterly fee of 0.375% per year if the leverage ratio as of the last day of the previous fiscal quarter was greater than or equal to 1.50 to 1.00 or 0.25% per year if the leverage ratio is less than 1.50 to 1.00 as of the last day of the previous fiscal quarter. This fee is applied against any difference between the $25,000,000 commitment and the average of the daily outstanding amount of credit we actually use during each quarter. A fee of $125,000 was charged by the bank in connection with the amendment. The fee is payable in three installments of $41,666, one on the date of the amendment to the credit agreement, one on or before February 1, 2007 and one on or before February 1, 2008.
     In August 2006, our bank credit agreement was further amended. This amendment increased the credit availability from $25,000,000 to $35,000,000, increased the minimum fixed charge coverage ratio and the maximum leverage ratio and increased the amount of allowable capital expenditures. As a result of the amendment, the unused facility fee is now applied against any difference between the $35,000,000 commitment and the average daily outstanding amount of credit the Company actually uses during each quarter. The bank charged an amendment fee of $30,000 which was paid on the effective date of the amendment to the credit agreement.
Receivable Discount Program
     Our liquidity has been positively impacted by receivable discount programs we have established with two of our customers. Under this program, we have the option to sell the customers’ receivables to their respective banks at a discount agreed upon at the time the receivables are sold. The discount has averaged 3.6% during the three months ended June 30, 2006 and has allowed us to accelerate collection of receivables aggregating $15,529,000 by an average of 191 days. On an annualized basis, the weighted average discount rate on receivables sold to banks during the three months ended June 30, 2006 was 6.7%. While this arrangement has reduced our working capital needs, there can be no assurance that it will continue in the future. These programs resulted in interest costs of $504,000 during the three months ended June 30, 2006. These interest costs will increase as interest rates rise and as our customers increase their utilization of this discounting arrangement.
Multi-year Vendor Agreements
     We have long-term agreements with substantially all of our major customers. Under these agreements, which typically have initial terms of at least four years, we are designated as the exclusive or primary supplier for specified categories of remanufactured alternators and starters. In consideration for its designation as a customer’s exclusive or primary supplier, we typically provide the customer with a package of marketing incentives. These incentives differ from contract to contract and can include (i) the issuance of a specified amount of credits against receivables in accordance with a schedule set forth in the relevant contract, (ii) support for a particular customer’s research or marketing efforts that can be provided on a scheduled basis, (iii) discounts that are granted in connection with each individual shipment of product and (iv) other marketing, research, store expansion or product development support. We have also entered into agreements to purchase certain customers’ core inventory and to issue credits to pay for that inventory according to an agreed upon schedule set forth in the agreement. These contracts typically require that

we meet ongoing performance, quality and fulfillment requirements, and its contract with one of the largest automobile manufacturers in the world includes a provision (standard in this manufacturer’s vendor agreements) granting the manufacturer the right to terminate the agreement at any time for any reason. Our contracts with major customers expire at various dates ranging from May 2008 through December 2012.
     We continue to expand our production to meet our obligations arising under our vendor agreements. This increased production caused significant increases in our inventories, accounts payable and employee base. With respect to merchandise covered by the pay-on-scan arrangement with our largest customer, the customer is not obligated to purchase the goods we ship to it until that merchandise is purchased by one of its customers. While this arrangement will defer recognition of income from sales to this customer, we do not believe it will ultimately have an adverse impact on our liquidity. In addition, although the significant marketing allowances we have provided our customers as part of these multi-year agreements meaningfully limit the near-term revenues and associated cash flow from these new or expanded arrangements, we believe this incremental business will improve our overall liquidity and cash flow from operations over time.
     As part of our POS arrangement with our largest customer, we agreed to purchase the customer’s inventory of alternators and starters that was transitioned to a POS basis. The customer is paying us the proceeds from its POS sale of this transition inventory, and we paid for this inventory through the issuance of monthly credits to this customer that ended in April 2006. Because we collected cash for the transition inventory before we issued the monthly credits to purchase this inventory during the initial phase of this arrangement, this transaction helped finance our inventory build-up to meet production requirements. As anticipated, satisfaction of the credit due customer through the issuance of credits against that customer’s receivables has had a negative impact on our cash flow. While we did not record the approximately $24,000,000 of transition inventory that we purchased or the associated payment liability on our balance sheet, the accounting treatment that we have adopted to account for this purchase resulted in a net due from this customer of $2,005,000 at June 30, 2006.
     In the fourth quarter of fiscal 2005, we entered into a five-year agreement with one of the largest automobile manufacturers in the world to supply this manufacturer with a new line of remanufactured alternators and starters for the United States and Canadian markets. We have expanded our operations and built-up our inventory to meet the requirements of this contract and have incurred certain transition costs associated with this build-up. As part of the agreement, we agreed to grant this customer $6,000,000 of credits that are being issued as sales to this customer are made. Of the total credits, $3,600,000 was issued during fiscal 2006, ($2,570,000 in the first quarter of fiscal 2006,) and the remaining $2,400,000 is scheduled to be issued in four annual payments of $600,000 in the second fiscal quarter of each of the fiscal years 2007 to 2010. The agreement also contains other typical provisions, such as performance, quality and fulfillment requirements that we must meet, a requirement that we provide marketing support to this customer and a provision (standard in this manufacturer’s vendor agreements) granting the manufacturer the right to terminate the agreement at any time for any reason. Our cash flow has been adversely impacted by the operational steps we have taken and the marketing allowances we agreed to in order to respond to this opportunity. In addition, sales to this customer during the initial term of this agreement have been below expectations. As a result, the inventory buildup we made in connection with this new agreement has put an additional strain on our working capital. We believe, however, that this new business will improve our overall liquidity over time.
     In March 2005, we entered into a new agreement with one of our major customers. As part of this agreement, our designation as this customer’s exclusive supplier of remanufactured import alternators and starters was extended from February 28, 2008 to December 31, 2012. In addition to customary promotional allowances, we agreed to acquire the customer’s import alternator and starter core inventory by issuing $10,300,000 of credits over a five year period subject to adjustment if our sales to the customer decrease in any quarter by more than an agreed upon percentage. The customer is obligated to repurchase from us the cores in the customer’s inventory upon termination of the agreement for any reason.
     Our customers continue to aggressively seek extended payment terms, pay-on-scan inventory arrangements, significant marketing allowances, price concessions and other terms adversely affecting our liquidity and reported operating results.

     Capital Lease Obligations represent amounts due under finance leases of various types of machinery and computer equipment that are accounted for as capital leases.
     Operating Lease Obligations represent amounts due for rent under our leases for office and warehouse facilities in California, Tennessee, Malaysia, Singapore and Mexico.
     Purchase Obligations primarily represents our obligations to issue credits to one large and several smaller customers for the acquisition of those customers’ core inventory.
     Other Long-Term Obligations represent commitments we have with certain customers to provide marketing allowances in consideration for supply agreements to provide products over a defined period.
Customer Concentration
     We are substantially dependent upon sales to our major customers. During the three months ended June 30, 2006 and 2005, sales to our three largest customers constituted approximately 92% and 90% of our total sales, respectively. We expect our customer concentration to continue to decline as we add important new customers to our business base. Any meaningful reduction in the level of sales to any of our significant customers, deterioration of any customer’s financial condition or the loss of a customer could have a materially adverse impact upon us. In addition, the concentration of our sales and the competitive environment in which we operate has increasingly limited our ability to negotiate favorable prices and terms for our products. Because of the very competitive nature of the market for remanufactured starters and alternators and the limited number of customers for these products, our customers have increasingly sought and obtained price concessions, significant marketing allowances and more favorable payment terms. The increased pressure we have experienced from our customers may increasingly and adversely impact our profit margins in the future.
Offshore Remanufacturing
     We also conduct business through three wholly owned foreign subsidiaries, MVR Products Pte. Ltd. (“MVR”), which operates a shipping and receiving warehouse, a testing facility and office space in Singapore, Unijoh Sdn. Bhd. (“Unijoh”), which conducts remanufacturing operations in Malaysia, and Motorcar Parts de Mexico, S.A. de C.V., which operates a 186,000-square foot remanufacturing facility in Tijuana, Baja California, Mexico. These foreign operations have quality control standards similar to those currently implemented at our remanufacturing facilities in Torrance. Our foreign subsidiaries’ operations are growing in importance as we take advantage of lower production labor costs, and we expect to continue to grow the portion of our remanufacturing operations that is

conducted outside the United States. In the three months ending June 30, 2006 and 2005, the foreign subsidiaries produced 59.7% and 14.8%, respectively, of our total production. We anticipate that by the end of fiscal 2007 approximately 95% of our remanufactured units will be produced by the foreign subsidiaries.
Seasonality of Business
     Due to their nature and design, as well as the limits of technology, alternators and starters traditionally failed when operating in extreme conditions. During the summer months, when the temperature typically increases over a sustained period of time, alternators were more apt to fail. Similarly, during winter months, starters were more apt to fail. Since alternators and starters are mandatory for the operation of the vehicle, failed units require immediate replacement. As a result, during the summer months we experienced an increase in alternator sales, and during the winter months we experienced an increase in starter sales. However, in recent years, advances in technology and quality have mitigated this seasonal sales impact, especially for starters. A mild summer or winter can have a negative impact on our sales.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
     We do not have any off-balance sheet financing arrangements or liabilities. In addition, we do not have any majority-owned subsidiaries or any interests in, or relationships with, any material special-purpose entities that are not included in the consolidated financial statements.
Related Party Transactions
     Our related party transactions primarily consist of employment and director agreements, and stock purchase agreements. Our related party transactions have not changed since March 31, 2006.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures.
     In connection with the preparation and filing of this amended Quarterly Report, we completed an evaluation of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures under the supervision and with the participation of our chief executive officer and chief financial officer. This evaluation was conducted as of the end of the period covered by this amended report, pursuant to the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.
     Based on this evaluation, our chief executive officer and chief financial officer concluded that there remain certain deficiencies we consider to be material weaknesses in our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this report, notwithstanding the improvements we have made in this regard. These deficiencies are discussed below.
     Because we receive a critical remanufacturing component through customer returns and we offer marketing allowances and other incentives that impact revenue recognition, we recognize that the accounting for our operations is more complex than that for many businesses of our size or larger. In addition, the expansion of our overseas operations and the increase in our overall level of activity have put additional strains on our system of disclosure controls and procedures. To address this, we have added an experienced new chief financial officer and a new controller to help assure that we remain current with the relevant accounting literature and official pronouncements and that our disclosure controls and procedures remain effective and up-to-date. Our chief financial officer regularly reviews our accounting controls and procedures to identify and address areas where these controls could be improved.
     During the review of our financial statements for the three and six months ended September 30, 2006, Grant Thornton LLP, our independent auditing firm, notified our Audit Committee and management that they had identified material weaknesses in our internal controls. Grant Thornton noted that (i) we incorrectly recorded a duplicative entry that continued to recognize a gross profit impact resulting from the accrual for certain cores authorized to be returned, but still in-transit to us from our customers, (ii) we incorrectly recorded core charge revenue when the amount of revenue was not fixed and determinable and (iii) we did not appropriately accrue losses for all probable customer payment discrepancies. We believe these errors were mainly attributable to the use of numerous complex spreadsheets and top side adjustments to close the general ledger and prepare financial statements for quarterly and annual reporting periods. The Company’s current staffing levels are not sufficient to fully review all these spreadsheets for accuracy, data integrity and logic.
     As part of our current evaluation of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures under the supervision and with the participation of our chief executive officer and chief financial officer, we undertook a review of our accounting policies and procedures and the relevant accounting literature and pronouncements, and considered Grant Thornton’s views in this regard, together with our own observations. Based upon this evaluation, we have concluded that there is a material weakness in our disclosure controls and procedures, as summarized above.
     In an on-going effort to remedy these weaknesses, we have increased the active participation of our Audit Committee in the evaluation of our accounting policies and disclosure controls. We have hired additional accounting staff to strengthen the Company’s ability to review the complex spreadsheets, the general ledger close process and assist in the preparation of financial statements. We believe these changes to our disclosure controls and procedures and the ones discussed above will be adequate to provide reasonable assurance that the objectives of these control systems will be met.
Except as noted in the preceding paragraphs, there have been no changes in our internal control, over financial reporting that occurred during the period covered by this report that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect financial reporting.
