DOCUMENTS INCORPORATED BY REFERENCE PORTIONS OF THE DEFINITIVE PROXY STATEMENT TO BE DELIVERED TO SECURITY HOLDERS FOR THE 2002 ANNUAL MEETING OF STOCKHOLDERS TO BE HELD ON APRIL 25, 2002, ARE INCORPORATED BY REFERENCE INTO PART III OF THIS FORM 10-K. PART I ITEM 1. BUSINESS OVERVIEW We design, manufacture, sell and install custom vinyl replacement windows for residential and retail commercial customers. We also sell and install replacement doors, textured coatings, vinyl siding, patio decks, patio enclosures, cabinet refacings, and bathroom and kitchen remodeling products, as well as residential roofing. In April 1998, we acquired Thermo-Tilt Window Company, which was established in 1987. Since that time, we have acquired 12 retail and manufacturing businesses which had been in operation an average of approximately 11 years. During 2000, we closed two manufacturing businesses and one retail business. At December 31, 2001, we had 900 full-time employees and had facilities in 13 states, primarily in the Midwest and southern California. For calendar 2000, we generated consolidated revenues of approximately $98 million, and for calendar 2001, we generated consolidated revenues of approximately $90 million. Our initial business plan focused on an aggressive acquisition program to build a vertically integrated company in the vinyl window business. We intended to aggressively develop in the manufacturing, retail, and finance segments. We closed our finance subsidiary, two acquired manufacturing businesses and one acquired retail business in 2000. Although we have scaled back on manufacturing and eliminated our finance subsidiary, we continue to search for strategic alliances and business development opportunities that may be beneficial to us in the manufacturing, retail and finance segments. - We continue to work closely with all of our window manufacturers in the production of our current windows and in the development of windows using new technologies. 1
10-K4053rd Page of 74TOC1stPreviousNextBottomJust 3rd
- In October 2001, we formed a joint venture with Royal Group Technologies Limited, headquartered in Ontario, Canada, to manufacture leading edge thermoplastic extrusions. The extrusions are stronger than vinyl, withstand weather and climate extremes, are impact resistant and can be produced in many colors. We own 40% of the joint venture operation. - We plan to introduce new or enhanced products and expand the market areas of our existing retail subsidiaries. - We plan to work towards opening new retail offices in the South, Southwest and Midwest. - Since we continue to assist our customers in obtaining financing for about 50% of our sales, we intend to explore economically beneficial strategic alliances with the companies that provide financing to our customers. Our custom vinyl replacement windows are manufactured by a combination of internal and external manufacturers. Both are capable of supplying quality windows on a timely basis at competitive prices. Because we did not have the available capital upon completion of our initial public offering in December 1999 to pursue our initial acquisition strategy, we shifted our growth focus to the retail segment and the introduction of new or enhanced products and product lines in addition to the development of new advertising and marketing programs that foster cross-selling of product lines to our existing customer bases. THE REPLACEMENT WINDOW INDUSTRY Sales of replacement windows have experienced substantial growth in recent years. Three basic categories of windows comprise the replacement window market: vinyl, wood and aluminum. We believe that vinyl windows require less maintenance and are more durable than either wood or aluminum windows and they provide greater energy efficiency than aluminum windows. Since prices for vinyl windows have become more competitive with wood window prices and the durability and energy efficiency of vinyl windows have improved, the demand for vinyl windows significantly increased from 1993 through 1998. Today, vinyl windows are the most popular replacement window. We believe that factors driving demand in the replacement window industry include: - the aging existing housing stock; - job and wage growth; - consumer confidence levels; - consumer credit conditions; - interest rates; - demographic trends; - population migration between urban and suburban areas; and 2
10-K4054th Page of 74TOC1stPreviousNextBottomJust 4th
- demand for maintenance free products. GROWTH STRATEGY Our goal is to become a leader in the home improvement and replacement window industry by building a nationwide network of sales and installation subsidiaries principally through internal growth. INTEGRATION STRATEGY We believe that we can increase our growth through expansion of the markets of our current and acquired subsidiaries. We believe that our brand recognition and integrated management enhances the capability of our subsidiaries to further expand regional market share. In 2000 and continuing into 2001, we changed the focus of our expansion strategy to growth of our current subsidiaries during the near future rather than expanding predominantly through acquisitions. Because of the unavailability of capital for acquisitions, we have suspended our pursuit of acquisitions. MERCHANDISING REPLACEMENT WINDOWS. We offer four lines of custom-made replacement vinyl windows. Each of our lines consists of a broad range of window options including awning, bay, bow, double hung, garden and slider replacement windows. We offer the Barricade, Thermal Line, Thermal Industries and Great Lakes lines of windows tailored to fit the various remodeling and financial needs of our customers. BARRICADE WINDOW. This line consists of our most expensive window products. We design and Winchester Industries, Inc., in Saltsburg, Pennsylvania, manufactures this line of replacement windows for energy performance, strength, security and low maintenance. The windows offer welded vinyl frames reinforced with aluminum in both their main frame and sash for added strength, and with one inch triple insulated glass with low-emissivity, Low-E coatings to reduce heat radiation through the glass and double steel cam locks for security. Our Primax and Rolox subsidiaries utilize the Barricade window. In January 2002, we selected Winchester to design and build a new line of windows incorporating climate-resistant composite resin materials. We will purchase the components used to manufacture these windows from our joint venture extrusion operation. THERMAL LINE WINDOW. Thermal Line is our sole manufacturing subsidiary located in Mandan, North Dakota. We design and Thermal Line manufactures this line for high performance at affordable cost. A component of this line of replacement windows is Compozit, a vinyl substitute, which increases strength without the cost of aluminum reinforcement. The use of Compozit also permits the use of dark colors in extreme heat. The Compozit components used to manufacture these windows are being purchased from our joint venture extrusion operation. This line of replacement windows contains double insulated glass and Low-E coatings. Approximately 14% of Thermal Line's sales are to Leingang, another ThermoView subsidiary, with the balance sold to external customers. Thermal Line does not sell windows to other ThermoView subsidiaries. THERMAL INDUSTRIES WINDOW. Thermo-Shield Co., Inc., utilizes Thermal Industries as their primary window supplier. Thermal Industries is 3
10-K4055th Page of 74TOC1stPreviousNextBottomJust 5th
headquartered in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, and is not one of our affiliates. The most requested product by Thermo-Shield customers is their "exclusive solution" double hung window. The double hung line of vinyl windows is available in a variety of styles and options for every budget. Features such as insulating sashes and frames provide extra warmth in critical points where windows need it most. High performance glass packages, designed specifically for each customer's climate, can provide increased R-value, reduce sound transmission and enhance security. In addition, these windows are "energy star" compliant, which means year-round energy savings. All of these benefits strive to make the homes we serve more comfortable. GREAT LAKES WINDOW. Great Lakes, a subsidiary of Nortek, which is a large building material conglomerate, is one of the world's largest producers of custom-made replacement windows. Great Lakes, located in Toledo, Ohio, manufactures a diverse line of replacement products including bay windows, bow windows, garden windows and extra heavy duty patio doors with special enhanced insulating features available. Great Lakes is noted for its innovative approach to product development. Thomas Construction and ThermoView of California design, sell and install Great Lakes' top of the line UNIFRAME product line. Our windows offer the following features: ENERGY EFFICIENCY. One characteristic of our windows is their insulating qualities. Double- and triple-pane glass provides the R-values and U-values, measures of insulation for end-users. With regard to this double- and triple-pane glass, we incorporate state-of-the-art Low-E coatings. Low-E coatings allow the passage of light but selectively block infrared radiation. As a result, less heat escapes on cold days, and less heat enters on warm days. We further increase the insulation value of our windows by sandwiching a layer of argon, krypton and sulfur hexafluoride gas mixture between panes of glass. HIGH QUALITY FRAMES. Our windows incorporate fusion-welded corners, and our Barricade line includes an internal aluminum support system. This structure enhances the durability of the windows and prevents warping problems. CUSTOM DESIGN. We custom design windows in varying dimensions through the Thermal Line manufacturing subsidiary for Leingang and through unrelated third-party manufacturers for the balance of the retail subsidiaries. This process involves the retro-fitting of existing homes with custom-made, energy efficient, vinyl-clad windows. INSTALLATION SERVICE. Some of our subsidiaries use only their employees for installation of our replacement windows. Others subcontract with crews that work exclusively for us. Generally, we complete installation within the same or the second day of commencing installation. LOW MAINTENANCE PRODUCT. Our windows require little or no external maintenance due to the vinyl materials used. The tilt-in feature of our windows eases their cleaning. COMPETITIVE PRICING. We believe that, with increased sales volume, we can reduce purchased product costs through purchasing and distribution channels that will benefit the customer and create a competitor advantage over the small, fragmented competition. 4

REPLACEMENT DOORS. We offer custom-made insulated steel doors with wood-grain embossed finishes in 36 styles and sliding glass doors in six variations. - The steel doors range in price from $750 to $3,000 per door as installed depending upon the styles, hardware and art-glass options and wood grain finishings chosen. - The sliding glass doors range in price from $1,500 to $3,000 per door as installed. ENERGY EFFICIENCY, DESIGN, AND INSTALLATION. Our sliding glass doors and insulated steel doors that contain glass have the same energy efficiency characteristics as our vinyl replacement windows. We custom design and install our sliding glass doors and insulated steel doors in a similar fashion to our vinyl replacement windows. HOME TEXTURED COATINGS. We offer home textured coatings for residential use, the cost of which ranges approximately from $8,000 to $15,000 per residence as installed. Home textured coating is a paint and service that usually takes seven days to complete. The process involves four coats of primer and two finish coats, together with a trenching operation to prevent ground moisture penetration and patching and repairs of the surface to be coated. INSTALLATION SERVICE. Both employee and exclusive subcontractor painters provide the home textured coatings to our customers. PRODUCT GUARANTEE. The manufacturer of the product, Textured Coatings of America, Inc., provides a limited lifetime warranty to the owner of the home against chipping, flaking and peeling of its product. VINYL SIDING. We offer vinyl siding in several colors and styles. Our customers will generally spend in the range of $2,800 to $10,000 as installed depending upon the size of the residence. The average time for installation is seven days and generally the vinyl siding is maintenance free. CABINET REFACINGS. We offer kitchen cabinet refacings in a number of designs which range in cost to our customer from $3,000 to $10,000 per kitchen as installed and generally take one day to complete. KITCHEN AND BATHROOM REMODELING. We offer kitchen and bathroom remodeling through four of our subsidiaries. We estimate the cost to our customer for kitchen remodeling to range from $3,000 to $20,000. Generally, remodeling takes one week to complete. We charge our customers for bathroom remodeling from $3,000 to $8,000 per residence as installed. PATIO DECKS AND PATIO ENCLOSURES. We offer patio decks and patio enclosures with single- or double-pane glass as a less expensive alternative to room additions. Most sales involve single-pane glass together with a modular roof. Generally, installation takes three days, and the cost to our customer ranges from $8,000 to $18,000 as installed depending on the size and options chosen. RETAIL BUSINESSES. ThermoView's retail segment consists of the following businesses: 5

MANUFACTURING Initially, our goal was to vertically integrate our replacement window sales, installation and manufacturing functions. In 2000, we decided to close two of our three acquired manufacturers because of operating losses. We decided to rely more heavily on unrelated third-party manufacturing with a significant reduction in our own manufacturing. Consequently, we offer four lines of custom-made replacement vinyl windows. Our Thermal Line Windows plant in North Dakota manufactures one line, and the other three lines are manufactured by unaffiliated third parties: Winchester Industries, Inc., located in Saltsburg, Pennsylvania, Great Lakes Window, Inc., located in Toledo, Ohio, and Thermal Industries Window located in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. LOW-TECH MANUFACTURING PROCESS. The process of manufacturing custom replacement windows consists of measuring, cutting and assembling glass and extruded vinyl "lineal" components to create windows that match customer specifications. For those windows that we continue to manufacture in our own facility, we have invested in sophisticated machinery to create an assembly line environment designed to further automate the production process. A summary of the assembly of a vinyl replacement window is as follows: - we receive orders from customers and enter the desired dimensions of the windows into a computer; - through the use of a proprietary computer program, we map the dimensions of multiple windows onto a large sheet of glass in the configuration that will maximize the number of windows to be cut from each sheet, thereby minimizing waste; - once the glass is cut, we wash it and coat the edges with an insulating material that will separate the two or three layers of glass panes and create the desired air-tight seal around the window; - while cutting the glass, another procedure measures and cuts vinyl "lineals" according to the specifications of the window types and dimensions required by the order; - the cut and processed lineals then move to a welding area, where we weld the four sides together and complete any final fabricating attachments; - we then send the completed sash to the glass insertion area, where we insert the window panes into the proper sash units; and - all of the major components of the window arrive at the final assembly area concurrently to produce the finished product. Because we assemble our windows on a made-to-order basis utilizing a just-in-time inventory system, we do not maintain a large finished goods inventory at our manufacturing plant. We typically deliver finished products to our customers. Service personnel complete the installation and servicing of the product at the customer's home. Integration of our sales, shipping, installation and service operations enables us to provide a complete window or door installation service for customers. The average time between the 7
10-K4059th Page of 74TOC1stPreviousNextBottomJust 9th
execution of a customer sales contract and completion of installation is approximately 4 to 6 weeks. SUPPLIERS. Thermal Line Windows, our manufacturing subsidiary, purchases its extrusions from our joint venture extrusion operation. Previously, Thermal Line purchased its extrusions from the company that our recently formed joint venture acquired. Extrusions constitute the largest portion of our raw materials costs, accounting for approximately 30%-40% of our window. We primarily purchase glass from Cardinal Glass. Glass constitutes approximately 10%-15% of our window content. With the increased emphasis on unrelated third-party manufacturing, our reliance upon other suppliers may lessen depending upon the suppliers of the unrelated third-party manufacturers. Additionally, unrelated third-party vendors have manufactured our products other than replacement windows since our inception. We have relied on one or two third party vendors for the manufacture of each of our products to provide us with manufacturing consistency and volume discounts. MANUFACTURING BUSINESSES. ThermoView's sole manufacturing subsidiary is Thermal Line Windows, Inc. Thermal Line Windows, Inc., formerly Thermal Line Windows, L.L.P., founded in 1996 and headquartered in Mandan, North Dakota, manufactures Compozit replacement and new construction windows and doors for residential and commercial use for sale in Colorado, Idaho, Iowa, Kansas, Minnesota, Montana, Nebraska, North Dakota, South Dakota, Wisconsin and Wyoming. Thermal Line Windows, Inc. had 56 employees as of December 31, 2001. Alvin W. Leingang, a former principal of Thermal Line Windows and related companies for 24 years, and Dennis Buchholz, an employee of the business for 11 years, manage its operations. Approximately 14% of Thermal Line's sales are to Leingang with the balance being to external customers. SALES AND MARKETING Each one of our subsidiaries has its own sales staff. We pay members of our sales staff on a commission basis and on the profitability of the subsidiary for which they work. We have a centralized advertising group for major media efforts such as direct mail, but each subsidiary also maintains its own advertising and promotions staff for activities best handled locally. An advertising committee comprised of subsidiary managers is headed by Rod Thomas. Its purpose is to oversee and implement company-wide marketing programs and to explore, develop, and test new methods of advertising and marketing. Our marketing approach varies from subsidiary to subsidiary and also varies based upon the target area. ADVERTISING. We generally give the individual subsidiary discretion as to the most effective form of advertising for its geographic market. Each subsidiary can advertise locally or take advantage of our national advertising program, with the objective of achieving the most effective use of each subsidiary's advertising budget. We utilize a number of methods to create opportunities for direct contact with potential customers, including renting space at local fairs and 8
10-K40510th Page of 74TOC1stPreviousNextBottomJust 10th
maintaining kiosks at shopping malls. Other advertising and promotion media used to acquire bona-fide sales leads include direct mail, television spots, newspaper inserts, home magazine ads, internet-based advertising, neighborhood canvassing and telemarketing. While the form of media may vary, each media message carries an attractive offer to homeowners who may be considering a home improvement. This offer may include an opportunity to enter our Home Improvement Sweepstakes, savings on selected home improvement projects if purchased during a specific time frame, customer financing and seasonal savings. TELEMARKETING. A majority of our retail subsidiaries solicit customers through an internally managed telemarketing system. Through the use of a predictive dialing system, an automated system that calls multiple phone numbers at once and only directs to the operators those calls that are answered, we have increased the efficiency while reducing the costs associated with telemarketing. Special care is taken to politely provide helpful information about our products and services to homeowners when telemarketing. IN-HOME DEMONSTRATION. When a sales representative receives an expression of interest from a potential customer, he or she will then arrange for an in-home demonstration at the customer's residence. We have developed a ten-step procedure for in-home sales presentations, which features a free, no-obligation design and estimate of the work to be performed. Furthermore, in the training of our sales staff, we instruct them that they have limited discretion to negotiate on price. We pay our sales staff solely on a commission basis to provide for maximum incentives. CUSTOMER PAYMENT As of December 31, 2001 for approximately 50% of our sales, customers pay in cash upon completion of installation of our products. For the remaining 50% of sales, customers pay for the products under installment or conditional sales contracts. In these sales, a customer contracts to pay the retail sales price, plus a finance charge, in equal installments over a predetermined period of time. A security interest or chattel mortgage collateralizes the purchased goods. We currently assign all of these contracts to unaffiliated local and national financial institutions, in return for the cash sales price of the products involved, upon execution of a certificate of completion by a customer after completion of installation. COMPETITION VINYL REPLACEMENT WINDOWS AND DOORS. The vinyl replacement window and door industry is highly competitive. The industry is significantly fragmented at both the manufacturing level and at the retail level. Most of our retail competitors are smaller than us and to an extent consist of local lumber and home improvement dealers. We also compete with larger home improvement chain store operations such as Home Depot, Lowes and Scotty's. These stores, which usually sell windows with limited warranties and without in-house installation services, have significantly greater financial and operating resources and greater name recognition than we have. Additional competitors include Champion Windows, Pacesetters and the Sears Group. Brands in the window industry with the highest name recognition include Andersen Corporation, Pella Corporation and Marvin Windows. These companies 9
10-K40511th Page of 74TOC1stPreviousNextBottomJust 11th
primarily compete in the new construction segment of the window market. While these companies also produce replacement windows, they currently sell a relatively small percentage of their products for replacement applications. Furthermore, these companies generally emphasize wood windows rather than vinyl and market their products primarily to higher-end homeowners. HOME TEXTURED COATINGS. The competitors for our textured coating products include small remodelers and painting contractors who use the textured coating product or other painting products. We are not aware of a significantly large company that competes with us directly in the installation of textured coating. VINYL SIDING. We compete in the sale and installation of our vinyl siding with PaceSetters, Champion Windows and the Sears Group. CABINET REFACINGS AND KITCHEN AND BATHROOM REMODELING. Our principal competitors include PaceSetters and the Sears Group. In addition, smaller remodelers and contractors in each of the regions in which we engage in the cabinet refacing and kitchen and bathroom remodeling businesses compete with us. PATIO DECKS AND PATIO ENCLOSURES. Our competition in the installation of patio decks and patio enclosures includes PaceSetters and a number of smaller remodelers and contractors in each of the regions in which we install patio decks and patio enclosures. GOVERNMENT REGULATIONS Our business is subject to various federal, state and local laws, regulations and ordinances relating to, among other things, in-home sales, telemarketing, consumer financing, retail installment sales, advertising, the licensing of home improvement independent contractors, OSHA standards, building and zoning, consumer protection and environmental protection and regulations relating to the disposal of other solid wastes. Some jurisdictions require us to secure a license as a contractor. In addition, some jurisdictions require us to obtain a building permit for each installation. We are also subject to federal, state and local laws and regulations, which, among other things, regulate our advertising, warranties and disclosures to customers. Although we believe that we are currently in compliance in all material respects with these laws and regulations, existing or new laws or regulations applicable to our business in the future may materially adversely affect our results of operations. INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY We do not have any material patents related to our products. Two of our subsidiaries have sales and installation processes that they consider trade secrets. These subsidiaries protect these trade secrets by requiring their employees to enter into confidentiality agreements. We have filed for a trademark with the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office under the name "ThermoView." EMPLOYEES As of December 31, 2001 we had in excess of 900 full-time employees. With the exception of employees of Thermal Line Windows, none of our employees are subject to a collective bargaining agreement. The employees at 10
10-K40512th Page of 74TOC1stPreviousNextBottomJust 12th
Thermal Line are members of the United Steel Workers of America. The three-year contract with the employees of Thermal Line Windows expired on February 1, 2001. A new three-year contract has been agreed upon and approved with a term ending February 1, 2004. We have never experienced a work stoppage, and we consider our relations with our employees to be satisfactory. Our employees typically receive an hourly wage or salary and are generally eligible for bonuses, except for our sales staff who we pay on a commission basis. Our compensation system is directly related to profitability and accordingly compensation expense increases and decreases as sales and profits fluctuate. We emphasize incentive compensation, including cash bonus arrangements and various other incentive programs which offer our personnel an opportunity for additional earnings and benefits. FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS Some of the statements under "Business," "Legal Proceedings," "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations," and elsewhere in this Form 10-K constitute forward-looking statements. These statements involve risks and uncertainties about ThermoView and its business, including, among other things: - the successful implementation of our business plan and growth including access to adequate capital; - our ability to successfully integrate our past acquisitions; and - anticipated economic and demographic trends affecting the replacement window industry generally, and our business in particular. Specific factors which could cause our actual results to differ materially from those expressed or implied by forward-looking statements include those risk factors listed below. In some cases, you can identify forward-looking statements by words such as "may," "will," "should," "could," "expects," "plans," "anticipates," "believes," "estimates," "predicts," "potential," or "continue" or the negative of such terms or other comparable language. Although we believe that the expectations and assumptions reflected in the forward-looking statements are reasonable, we cannot guarantee future results, levels of activity, performance or achievements. RISK FACTORS YOU SHOULD CAREFULLY CONSIDER THE FOLLOWING RISK FACTORS IN ADDITION TO THE OTHER INFORMATION AND FINANCIAL DATA CONTAINED ELSEWHERE IN THIS FORM 10-K. RISKS RELATED TO THE MARKET FOR OUR COMMON STOCK WE MAY NOT PAY CASH DIVIDENDS ON THE COMMON STOCK IN THE FORESEEABLE FUTURE Our debt documents preclude us from paying dividends on our common stock. Additionally, the terms of our Series D and Series E preferred stock prevent us from paying dividends on our common stock as long as the Series D 11
10-K40513th Page of 74TOC1stPreviousNextBottomJust 13th
and Series E preferred stock is outstanding. We anticipate using future earnings for our operations. Accordingly, it is unlikely that we will pay dividends on the common stock in the foreseeable future. FUTURE DILUTION MAY OCCUR FROM EXERCISE OF OPTIONS AND WARRANTS Future dilution may occur from option and warrant exercises. Currently, we have options and warrants to purchase in the aggregate 6,865,221 hares of our common stock. Many of these options and warrants contain an exercise price below the current market price for the common stock. Additionally, many of these options and warrants contain registration rights. RISKS RELATED TO OUR OPERATIONS WE HAVE A HISTORY OF OPERATING LOSSES We have incurred a net loss attributable to common stockholders before extraordinary items for each year we have had consolidated operations. If we cannot increase our revenues and control our costs, we may not achieve profitability. If we do achieve profitability, we may be unable to sustain or increase profitability on a quarterly or annual basis in the future due to decreased demand for our products, increases in expenses or unprofitable acquisitions. Our continuing losses and failure to become profitable could result in the bankruptcy of ThermoView and the complete loss in the value of our common stock. CASH AND NON-CASH DIVIDENDS AND INTEREST RELATED TO FINANCINGS WILL INCREASE OUR LOSSES OR REDUCE POTENTIAL NET INCOME We will suffer losses or reductions in future potential net income as a result of the 12% dividends on our Series D and Series E preferred stock and the 10% to 12% stated interest on our debt. Also, fees and expenses and the amortization and accretion of the discounts on the debt related to detachable stock warrants issued in connection with the debt will contribute to our losses or lower potential future income. FLUCTUATIONS IN OUR QUARTERLY OPERATING RESULTS MAY CAUSE A DROP IN OUR STOCK PRICE Our operating results are unpredictable and may fluctuate on a quarterly basis due to the markets for our products or our operating problems. These fluctuations may cause a decrease in the price of our common stock. You should not rely on our results of operations during any quarter as an indication of our results for a full year or any other quarter. OUR DEBT DOCUMENTS IMPOSE RESTRICTIONS ON US AND LIMIT OUR OPERATIONS Our debt requires us to comply with affirmative and negative covenants. We must maintain various financial ratios and our lenders may restrict us from incurring other debt. We cannot pay dividends on our common stock while our debt is outstanding. We are also subject to other restrictions, including restrictions pertaining to additional borrowings, significant corporate transactions and management changes. In the past, we have had our lenders waive our non-compliance with covenants and, in some instances, adjust the covenants to avoid future non-compliance. We may require lender waivers in 12
10-K40514th Page of 74TOC1stPreviousNextBottomJust 14th
the future. However, we cannot assure that lenders will grant any future waiver requests. In January 2001, we defaulted under our term loan with PNC Bank. GE Capital Equity Investments, Inc. (GE Equity) and an investor group consisting principally of ThermoView directors and officers waived payment and other defaults upon purchase of the term loan from PNC Bank. Consequently, GE Equity and the investor group under the restructured term loan could, among other items, accelerate all amounts owed to them and increase the interest rate on the borrowings, if we default under our debt documents. In the event of acceleration of our debt, ThermoView would be unable to pay the amounts due which could result in the bankruptcy of ThermoView as an enterprise. Under our debt, an event of default could result in the loss of our subsidiaries because of the pledge of our ownership in all of our subsidiaries to our lenders. OUR OPERATIONS AND FUTURE DIRECTION WILL SUFFER FROM THE LOSS OF OUR KEY EXECUTIVE If we were to lose the service of Charles L. Smith without an adequate replacement, we will suffer from a lack of leadership in our future financial planning and operations management. The departure or death of Mr. Smith, in spite of our key person life insurance on his life, will not replace the lost leadership he provides. This management gap would cause potential revenue reduction and operating cost increases. ANTI-TAKEOVER PROVISIONS AFFECTING US COULD PREVENT OR DELAY A CHANGE OF CONTROL, DISCOURAGE TAKEOVER BIDS AND CAUSE THE MARKET PRICE OF OUR COMMON STOCK TO FALL Provisions of our restated certificate of incorporation and bylaws and provisions of applicable Delaware law may discourage, delay or prevent a merger or other change of control that a stockholder may consider favorable. Our Board of Directors has the authority to issue up to 5,000,000 shares of our preferred stock and to determine the price and the terms, including preferences and voting rights, of those shares without stockholder approval. To date, we have issued and outstanding 956,900 shares of Series D preferred stock and 336,600 shares of Series E preferred stock. Additionally, we have a classified Board of Directors whereby directors serve staggered three-year terms. Our Certificate of Incorporation requires a supermajority vote of the common stockholders to remove or modify this staggered board. Furthermore, we require advance notice for stockholder proposals and director nominations. These items could: - have the effect of delaying, deferring or preventing a change of control of ThermoView; - discourage bids for our common stock at a premium over the market price; or - cause the market price of our common stock to fall. We are subject to Delaware laws that could delay, deter or prevent a change of control of ThermoView. One of these laws prohibits us from engaging in a business combination with any interested stockholder for a period of three years from the date the person became an interested stockholder, unless conditions are met. 13

RISKS RELATED TO THE REPLACEMENT WINDOW INDUSTRY WITH THE GREATER NAME RECOGNITION AND RESOURCES OF SOME OF OUR COMPETITORS, WE MAY LOSE POTENTIAL REVENUE A limited number of our competitors have longer operating histories, greater name recognition, larger customer bases and greater financial, technical and marketing resources than we do. These resources may allow them to respond more quickly than we can to new or emerging technologies and changes in customer requirements. It may also allow them to devote greater resources than we can to the development, promotion and sale of their products. Our competitors may also engage in more extensive research and development, undertake more far-reaching marketing campaigns and adopt more aggressive pricing policies. Increased competition in addition to our present lack of capital could cause a decrease in our potential revenue and potential income, and the deterioration in our financial position and the value of our common stock. The market for our products is highly competitive and it is very fragmented at the manufacturing and retail levels. We expect competition to continue to increase because our markets pose no substantial barriers to entry. To the extent one of our competitors undertakes a consolidation program, our competition would increase further. WE MAY SUFFER LOST POTENTIAL REVENUE FROM OUR INABILITY TO SATISFY CURRENT AND FUTURE GOVERNMENTAL REGULATIONS Government regulations related to in-home sales, telemarketing and consumer financing may prevent us from engaging in business in some jurisdictions. Consequently, we will lose potential customers and revenue from these areas. RISKS RELATED TO LITIGATION Pending litigation against ThermoView is fully described under Part III of this Form 10-K. Although we continue to believe that these claims are without merit and intend to vigorously defend the suits, an adverse outcome in any of these actions could have a material adverse effect on our financial position, results of operations and cash flow. We are subject to other legal proceedings and claims which have arisen in the ordinary course of our business and have not been finally adjudicated. Although there can be no assurance as to the ultimate disposition of these matters, it is the opinion of our management, based upon the information available at this time, that the expected outcome of these matters, individually or in the aggregate, will not have a material adverse effect on our results of operations and financial condition. ITEM 2. PROPERTIES The following lists our property locations having in excess of 6,000 square feet. We lease all of our facilities. In many cases, we lease the property, at market rates, from the former owners of the subsidiaries which operate on the property. 14

LEGAL PROCEEDINGS On March 3, 2000, Pro Futures Bridge Capital Fund, L.P. and Bridge Capital Partners, Inc. Defined Benefit Pension Plan filed an action titled PRO FUTURES BRIDGE CAPITAL FUND, L.P. V. THERMOVIEW INDUSTRIES, INC., ET AL., Civil Action No. 00CV0559 (Colo. Dist. Ct., March 3, 2000) against ThermoView, its directors, certain officers, a former employee and a stockholder alleging breach of contract, common law fraud, fraudulent misstatements and omissions in connection with the sale of securities, negligent misrepresentations and breach of fiduciary duty. These claims are in connection with the mandatory conversion of ThermoView's 10% Series A convertible preferred stock, held by the two funds, into common stock upon completion of the initial public offering in December 1999, and purchases by the two funds of ThermoView common stock from ThermoView stockholders. The funds are seeking rescission of their purchases of the Series A preferred 15
10-K40517th Page of 74TOC1stPreviousNextBottomJust 17th
stock in the amount of $3,250,000, plus interest and unspecified damages in connection with their purchases of the common stock. ThermoView filed a notice to dismiss certain claims and an answer denying liability in the remainder of the claims. ThermoView also exercised an election for the removal of the action to the United States District Court of Colorado in Civil Action No. 00-B-722. In December 2001, the Court dismissed all claims against ThermoView by the grant of summary judgment. In January 2002, ProFutures filed a notice to appeal the Court's grant of summary judgment in the United States Court of Appeals for the Tenth Circuit. The Court of Appeals has yet to rule on this appeal. Although ThermoView continues to believe that the claims are without merit and intends to vigorously defend the suit, we cannot predict the outcome of the matter, however, it could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations and cash flow. No amounts have been provided in the accompanying consolidated financial statements for this matter. On August 1, 2001, Scott Ferguson filed a civil action styled SCOTT FERGUSON V. THERMOVIEW INDUSTRIES, INC., ET. AL., Civil Action No. 01-CI-005295 (Jefferson Circuit Court, August 1, 2001) seeking damages resulting from an investment in Series A preferred stock. This suit alleges claims similar to the claims advanced by ProFutures Bridge Capital Fund, L.P. and Bridge Capital Partners, Inc. Defined Benefit Pension Plan, in their action detailed above. By agreement of the parties, the claims will be held in abeyance until final resolution of the ProFutures matter. Our management believes that we have adequate defense to this litigation, and in the event of an adverse outcome to us, we do not believe that the loss would have a material adverse effect on us. On November 19, 2001, Nelson E. Clemmens, former director and president of the Company, filed an action titled NELSON E. CLEMMENS V. THERMOVIEW INDUSTRIES, INC., Civil Action No. 01-CI-07901 (Jefferson Circuit Court, November 19, 2001) against ThermoView alleging subrogation and indemnity rights associated with Mr. Clemmens' loss of guaranty collateral to PNC Bank, N.A. These claims are in connection with the April 2000 amendment to ThermoView's previous bank debt with PNC Bank, in which Stephen A. Hoffmann, Richard E. Bowlds, Nelson E. Clemmens and Douglas I. Maxwell, III guaranteed $3,000,000 of our PNC Bank debt. In January 2001, PNC seized the collateral pledged as security by the guarantors for the loan guaranty. In March 2001, ThermoView reached settlements with Messrs. Bowlds and Hoffmann for any claims that they may hold against us regarding their loss of assets in connection with the guaranty. We did not reach a settlement with Messrs. Clemmens and Maxwell with regard to guaranty of $1,000,000. The Clemmens suit seeks to determine the respective rights and duties of the parties concerning the loss of collateral. Our management believes that no payment should be made for loss of guarantor collateral and we have filed an answer and counter-claim in defense of our legal position. An unfavorable determination of our position regarding this matter could have a material adverse effect on our cash flow. ITEM 4. SUBMISSIONS OF MATTERS TO VOTE OF SECURITY HOLDERS None. 16

PART II ITEM 5. MARKET FOR REGISTRANT'S COMMON EQUITY AND RELATED STOCKHOLDER MATTERS (a) Our common stock has traded on the American Stock Exchange since December 2, 1999, under the symbol "THV." Prior to December 2, 1999, we traded our common stock on the OTC Bulletin Board under the symbol "TVIID" after a 1-for-3 reverse stock split of our common stock that occurred on October 5, 1999, and prior thereto under the symbol "TVII." The OTC Bulletin Board is a regulated quotation service that displays real-time quotes, last-sale prices and volume information in over-the-counter equity securities. Prior to December 2, 1999, we had not previously registered our common stock under either the Securities Act of 1933 or the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, nor had we listed our common stock on any exchange or had it quoted on The Nasdaq Stock Market. The following table sets forth, for the quarterly periods indicated, the high and low closing sale prices per share for the common stock and as adjusted to reflect the 1-for-3 reverse stock split which occurred on October 5, 1999. The American Stock Exchange and OTC Bulletin Board market quotations reflect inter-dealer prices, without retail mark up, mark down or commission and may not necessarily represent actual transactions. [Enlarge/Download Table] PRICE RANGE ----------- HIGH LOW ---- --- CALENDAR YEAR 2000 First Quarter........................................................................... $ 5.00 $ 2.68 Second Quarter.......................................................................... 3.50 1.31 Third Quarter........................................................................... 1.38 .63 Fourth Quarter.......................................................................... .63 .19 CALENDAR YEAR 2001 First Quarter........................................................................... .90 .31 Second Quarter.......................................................................... 1.41 .46 Third Quarter........................................................................... 1.30 .86 Fourth Quarter.......................................................................... 1.05 .60 On March 18, 2002, the last reported sale price of the common stock on the American Stock Exchange was $1.20 per share. As of March 1, 2002 there were 241 holders of record of our stock consisting of 234 common stockholders. This number does not include stockholders whose shares are held by brokers and other institutions. ThermoView has not declared or paid any cash dividends on its common stock and does not expect to pay any cash dividends on our common stock in the foreseeable future. Our agreements with our lenders prohibit us from paying dividends on our common stock. Any future change in our dividend policy will be made at the discretion of our Board of Directors and will depend on a number of factors, including: - our future earnings; - capital requirements; - contractual restrictions; 17

- financial condition; and - future prospects. ITEM 6. SELECTED FINANCIAL DATA The following tables present selected historical statement of operations and balance sheet financial data for ThermoView. On April 15, 1998, ThermoView acquired all of the outstanding stock of Thermo-Tilt Window Company. Prior to that date, ThermoView was a development stage corporation and had no business operations since its incorporation. For accounting and financial statement presentation purposes, Thermo-Tilt is deemed to be the acquirer. The statement of operations data for the period January 1, 1998 through April 15, 1998 and the financial data as of and for the year ended December 31, 1997 reflect only the operations of Thermo-Tilt. During the period April 1998 through July 1999, we acquired 12 retail and manufacturing businesses. These acquisitions have been accounted for as purchase transactions and, accordingly, the results of operations of the acquired businesses are included in the historical financial data since their respective acquisition dates. The selected financial data for ThermoView as of December 31, 1997, 1998, 1999, 2000 and 2001 and for each of the five years in the period ended December 31, 2001, have been derived from the audited financial statements of ThermoView. The following unaudited pro forma statement of operations data with respect to the years ended December 31, 1998 and 1999, give effect to each of our acquisitions, as if all transactions had occurred on January 1, 1998. We have presented this pro forma data for informational purposes only, in order to provide you with some indication of what our business might have looked like if we had owned all of the acquired companies since January 1, 1998. These companies may have performed differently if they had actually been combined with our operations. You should not rely on the unaudited pro forma information as necessarily being indicative of the historical results that we would have had or the results that we will experience in the future. The following data should be read in conjunction with: - the information set forth under "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations;" and - our consolidated financial statements and the related notes thereto included elsewhere in this Form 10-K. 18

ITEM 7. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS THE FOLLOWING DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS SHOULD BE READ IN CONJUNCTION WITH THE INFORMATION SET FORTH UNDER "SELECTED FINANCIAL DATA" AND OUR FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AND THE ACCOMPANYING NOTES THERETO INCLUDED ELSEWHERE IN THIS FORM 10-K. THIS FORM 10-K CONTAINS FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS WHICH INVOLVE RISKS AND UNCERTAINTIES. OUR ACTUAL RESULTS MAY DIFFER SIGNIFICANTLY FROM THE RESULTS, EXPECTATIONS AND PLANS DISCUSSED IN THE FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS. FACTORS THAT MIGHT CAUSE SUCH A DIFFERENCE INCLUDE, BUT ARE NOT LIMITED TO, THOSE DISCUSSED UNDER "RISK FACTORS." OVERVIEW We design, manufacture, sell and install custom vinyl replacement windows for residential and retail commercial customers. We also sell and install replacement doors, home textured coatings, vinyl siding, patio decks, patio enclosures, cabinet refacings and kitchen and bathroom remodeling products, as well as residential roofing. We financed a portion of our customers' purchases through Key Home Credit, our consumer finance subsidiary. However, we closed our finance subsidiary in July 2000 since expanding the subsidiary would have required considerable capital. On April 15, 1998, we acquired all of the outstanding stock of Thermo-Tilt Window Company in exchange for 3,120,000 shares of our common stock, which represented 90% of ThermoView's then outstanding common stock. Thermo-Tilt is deemed to be the acquirer for accounting purposes. BUSINESS SEGMENTS Our subsidiaries have separate management teams and infrastructures and operate in three reportable operating segments: retail, manufacturing and financial services. RETAIL. Our retail segment consists of our subsidiaries that design, sell and install custom vinyl replacement windows, doors and related home improvement products to commercial and retail customers. Our retail segment derives its revenues from the sale and installation of thermal replacement windows, storm windows and doors, patio decks, patio enclosures, vinyl siding and other home improvement products. Our retail segment recognizes revenues on the completed contract method. A contract is considered complete when the 20
10-K40522nd Page of 74TOC1stPreviousNextBottomJust 22nd
home improvement product has been installed. Gross profit in the retail segment represents revenues after deducting product and installation labor costs. MANUFACTURING. Our manufacturing segment consists of our subsidiary that manufactures and sells vinyl replacement windows to one of our retail companies and to unaffiliated customers. Sales from the manufacturing segment to our retail segment have been a larger percentage of our manufacturing revenues in prior years, however, now all but one of our retail subsidiaries obtain windows manufactured from unaffiliated vendors. Our manufacturing segment recognizes revenues when products are shipped. Gross profit in the manufacturing segment represents revenues after deducting product costs (primarily glass, vinyl and hardware), window fabrication labor and other manufacturing expenses. FINANCIAL SERVICES. Our financial services segment financed credit sales of our retail segment. We closed Key Home Credit, ThermoView's Owensboro, Kentucky, finance subsidiary, in July 2000 since expanding the subsidiary would have required considerable capital. We decided that we could more effectively employ capital to expand our retail business. You should refer to footnote 14 to our financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2001, which appears on page 64 of this Form 10-K for additional financial information about each of our business segments. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION OF CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES The accounting policies discussed below are considered by management to be critical in understanding the Company's financial statements because their application places the most demands on management's judgment, with financial reporting results relying on estimation about the effect of matters that are inherently uncertain. ACCOUNTING FOR THE IMPAIRMENT OF LONG-LIVED ASSETS The Company evaluates its goodwill and other long-term assets for impairment and assesses their recoverability based upon anticipated future cash flows. If facts and circumstances lead the Company's management to believe that the cost of one of its assets may be impaired, the Company will (a) evaluate the extent to which that cost is recoverable by comparing the future undiscounted cash flows estimated to be associated with the asset to the asset's carrying amount and (b) write-down that carrying amount to market value or discounted cash flow value to the extent necessary. REVENUE AND COST RECOGNITION The Company recognizes revenues from fixed-price contracts on the completed-contract method since the contracts are of a short duration. A contract is considered complete when the home improvement product has been installed. Contract costs include all direct material and labor costs and those indirect costs related to contract performance such as indirect labor and supplies. General and administrative costs are charged to expense as incurred. Provisions for estimated losses on uncompleted contracts are made in the period in which such losses are determined. 21
10-K40523rd Page of 74TOC1stPreviousNextBottomJust 23rd
OTHER LOSS CONTINGENCIES Other loss contingencies are recorded as liabilities when it is probable that a liability has been incurred and the amount of the loss is reasonably estimable. Disclosure is required when there is a reasonable possibility that the ultimate loss will exceed the recorded provisions. Contingent liabilities are often resolved over long term periods. Estimating probable losses requires analysis of multiple forecasts that often depend on judgments about potential actions by third parties. OTHER SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES Other significant accounting policies, not involving the same level of measurement uncertainties as those discussed above, are nevertheless important to an understanding of the financial statements. Policies related to consolidation policy, trade receivables, inventories and warranties require judgments on complex matters that are often subject to multiple sources of authoritative guidance. Also see Footnote 1 to our consolidated financial statements of this Form 10-K, Organization and Significant Accounting Policies, which discusses accounting policies that must be selected by management when there are acceptable alternatives. HISTORICAL RESULTS OF OPERATIONS The following financial information includes Thermo-Tilt plus the results of operations of the companies acquired by us after April 15, 1998 from their respective dates of acquisition. 22

Revenues decreased from $108.2 million in 1999 to $98.5 million in 2000. Revenues decreased $9.7 million or 9.0% due primarily to fluctuations in revenues for certain subsidiaries. Rolox and ThermoView of Missouri collectively reported $2.4 million less revenues in 2000 than in 1999. This reduced revenue was due to the negative effects of their window supplier's quality control and delivery problems. Their window supplier was our manufacturer (Precision) located in St. Louis, Missouri. Precision's inability to produce and deliver windows resulted from its plant relocation in the first quarter of 2000. Revenues from Thermo-Shield decreased $3.3 million due to changing its lead generation strategy and the closing of two of its branch operations that were unprofitable. Additionally, American Home Developers' revenue decreased $2.9 million in 2000 as compared to 1999 as we closed the operation. GROSS PROFIT. Gross profit decreased from $59.5 million in 1999 to $51.3 million in 2000. This decline principally results from less revenue at Thermo-Shield and American Home Developers as explained above, and the poor operating performance at Precision, Rolox and ThermoView of Missouri. As a percentage of revenues, gross profit decreased from 55.0% in 1999 to 52.1% in 23
10-K40525th Page of 74TOC1stPreviousNextBottomJust 25th
2000. This decrease results primarily because some costs at our subsidiaries are fixed and these fixed costs are more significant relative to the lower volumes in 2000 compared to 1999. SELLING, GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSES. Selling, general and administrative expenses decreased from $53.5 million in 1999 to $52.7 million in 2000. Selling, general and administrative expenses as a percentage of revenue increased from 49.4% in 1999 to 53.5% in UNUSUAL CHARGES. Unusual charges for 2000 amounting to $11.2 million represent primarily goodwill write offs for two of our subsidiaries which we closed, Precision and American Home Developers, plus other asset write offs and expense accruals required by these closures. DEPRECIATION EXPENSE. Depreciation expense increased from $966,000 in 1999 to $1.2 million in 2000 as a result of capital expenditures in 1999 and 2000. AMORTIZATION EXPENSE. Amortization expense remained constant at $3.4 million in 1999 and 2000. Amortization expense increased in 2000 at several subsidiaries as the former owners secured an increase to our purchase price of their entities by achieving post-acquisition earnings targets. This increase was offset by reduced amortization related to operations closed in 2000. INTEREST EXPENSE. Interest expense increased from $3.0 million in 1999 to $4.7 million in 2000 primarily as a result of interest, including accreted discount, on the $10.0 million senior subordinated promissory note with GE Equity, which began accruing in mid-1999, as well as interest on additional amounts borrowed in early 1999 under the PNC Bank credit facility. Also, PNC Bank charged us somewhat higher interest rates on the PNC credit facility in 2000. INCOME TAX PROVISION. The provision for income taxes in 1999 differs from the amount computed by applying the statutory U.S. Federal income tax rate to loss before income taxes primarily as a result of state taxes and non-deductible goodwill amortization. At December 31, 1999, we reported $1.7 million of deferred income tax assets. Due to operating losses incurred during 2000, we reported a significant taxable loss for the year ending December 31, 2000. Management concluded that it is more likely than not that our deferred tax assets will not be realized. As a result, the income tax provision for 2000 includes the effects of recognizing a valuation allowance against the deferred tax assets that existed at December 31, 1999, and no additional deferred income taxes have been recorded in 2000. CASH DIVIDENDS. Cash dividends on our Series A and Series B preferred stock amounted to $1.7 million in 1999. There were no cash dividends for 2000 on our Series A and Series B preferred stock, since the preferred stock was converted into shares of our common stock effective December 31, 1999. Cash dividends on our Series C preferred stock amounted to $308,000 in 1999 and $101,000 in 2000. PNC Bank did not permit us to pay any cash dividends on our Series C preferred stock after the first quarter of 2000. 24
10-K40526th Page of 74TOC1stPreviousNextBottomJust 26th
The first quarter of 1999 did not have any cash dividends on the Series C preferred stock since it was issued in April 1999. NON-CASH DIVIDENDS. Non-cash dividends of $1.7 million for 2000 represent accretion of the discount on the mandatorily redeemable Series C preferred stock related to the value of the detachable stock purchase warrants issued to the Series C preferred stockholders and stock dividends paid to these stockholders. Non-cash dividends of $2.5 million for 1999 relate to a beneficial conversion feature of the mandatorily redeemable Series C convertible preferred stock issued in April 1999, as well as accretion of the discount of the stock and stock dividends. Non-cash dividends for 2000 also include 12% cumulative undeclared dividends on the 300,000 shares of Series D preferred stock that were unpaid at the time of conversion to Series E preferred stock on September 30, 2000 plus undeclared dividends for the fourth quarter on the Series E preferred stock. The total of undeclared dividends for the Series E preferred stock for 2000 was $129,000. BENEFIT OF CONVERTING SERIES C TO WARRANT. During 2000, the holders of our Series C preferred stock agreed to convert all of their $6 million of preferred stock, including related warrants, into a warrant to purchase 1,100,000 shares of our common stock at an exercise price of $.28 per share. The excess of the carrying amount of $6 million and the current fair value of the previously held warrants to purchase 600,000 shares of our common stock at $12 per share over the fair value of the warrant to purchase 1,100,000 shares of our common stock at $.28 per share has been reflected as a $5,809,000 benefit of converting the Series C preferred stock to a warrant. BENEFIT OF SERIES D REDEMPTION. We redeemed 226,346 shares of Series D preferred stock with a carrying amount of $1,131,300 for $40,000 from the prior owners of an acquired business, as part of a severance settlement. We have reflected the excess of the carrying amount over the consideration given of $1,091,730 as a benefit of Series D redemption. 2000 COMPARED TO 2001 REVENUES. Revenues decreased from $98.5 million in 2000 to $90.3 million in 2001. This revenue decrease of $8.2 million is due primarily to fluctuations in revenues of our retail subsidiaries. Revenues from Thermo-Shield decreased $5.7 million due to (a) changing its lead generation strategy, which should improve its long-term performance but has an adverse effect on short-term operating performance and cash flows; and (b) the closing of one of its branch operations that was unprofitable. Thermo-Shield, because of the foregoing, is currently underperforming. We have an investment in this subsidiary approximating $5.6 million at December 31, 2001. Because of cost cutting and other changes, we expect to recover our investment in Thermo-Shield from its future cash flows. Thomas Construction, our St. Louis subsidiary, experienced a weather-related revenue decline of $1.3 million in 2001 compared 2000, and American Home Developers had revenues of $1.4 million in 2000 before it was closed. GROSS PROFIT. Gross profit decreased from $51.3 million in 2000 to $47.6 million in 2001 because of a reduction in volume as discussed above. As a percentage of revenues, gross profit was 52.1% in 2000 compared to 52.7% in 2001. 25
10-K40527th Page of 74TOC1stPreviousNextBottomJust 27th
SELLING, GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSES. Selling, general and administrative expenses decreased from $52.7 million in 2000 to $42.8 million in 2001. Selling, general and administrative expenses as a percentage of revenues decreased from 53.5% in 2000, to 47.4% in 2001. The decrease in selling, general and administrative expenses in 2001 represents a concerted effort by management to reduce corporate and field expenses. We have taken steps to reduce administrative expenses principally by terminating corporate employees and relocating our corporate headquarters to one of our subsidiary locations. We are also taking steps to reduce administrative expenses at all of our subsidiaries by eliminating personnel, merging operations where appropriate, and standardizing procedures. UNUSUAL CHARGES. Unusual charges for 2000 amounting to $11.2 million represent primarily goodwill write offs for two of our subsidiaries which were closed, Precision and American Home Developers, plus other asset write offs and expense accruals required by these closures. DEPRECIATION EXPENSE. Depreciation expense remained constant in 2000 and 2001 at $1.2 million. AMORTIZATION EXPENSE. Amortization expense decreased from $3.4 million in 2000 to $2.8 million in 2001. This decrease results from the elimination of amortization of goodwill upon the closure of American Home Developers and Precision Window Mfg., Inc., in July 2000 and August 2000, respectively. INTEREST EXPENSE. Interest expense decreased from $4.7 million in 2000 to $3.0 million in 2001. This decrease results from the reduction of interest related to the elimination of nearly $7.0 million of debt during the first quarter of 2001 in connection with a debt restructuring, a 2% reduction in the stated interest rate on $10 million of our debt, and extended maturity dates on some of our debt which reduced the monthly amounts of accretion of debt discount following the first quarter of 2001. INCOME TAX EXPENSE. Because of operating losses incurred during 2000, management concluded that it was more likely than not that ThermoView's deferred tax assets would not be realized and, accordingly, the deferred tax assets at December 31, 2000 were fully offset by a valuation allowance. As a result, income tax expense for 2000 includes the effects of recognizing a valuation allowance against the deferred tax assets that existed at December 31, 1999. We have continued in 2001 not to recognize the benefit of our net deferred tax assets. EXTRAORDINARY ITEM. The extraordinary item in 2001 represents a gain on forgiveness of debt in connection with the restructuring of debt in March 2001. The $7.2 million extraordinary gain is net of expenses and net of $82,000 of value assigned to common stock purchase warrants issued in connection with the settlement reached with our former senior lender, PNC Bank. CASH DIVIDENDS. The cash dividends of $101,000 in 2000 represented dividends on our mandatorily redeemable Series C convertible preferred stock. The Series C preferred stock was converted to warrants in December 2000, and we paid no cash dividends on any preferred stock in 2001. NON-CASH DIVIDENDS. Non-cash dividends of $1.7 million for 2000 represent accretion of the discount on the mandatorily redeemable Series C preferred stock related to the value of the detachable stock purchase 26
10-K40528th Page of 74TOC1stPreviousNextBottomJust 28th
warrants issued to the Series C preferred stockholders and stock dividends paid to these stockholders. The Series C preferred stock was converted to warrants in December 2000, and there were, therefore, no similar non-cash dividends on this preferred stock in 2001. Non-cash dividends for 2000 also include 12% cumulative undeclared dividends on the 300,000 shares of Series D preferred stock that were unpaid at the time of conversion to Series E preferred stock on September 30, 2000 plus undeclared dividends for the fourth quarter on the Series E preferred stock. The total of undeclared dividends for the Series E preferred stock for 2000 was $129,000. The Series D preferred stock accrued 12% dividends during the entire fourth quarter of 2001 and the Series E preferred stock accrued 12% dividends throughout 2001. The total of undeclared dividends for Series D and Series E preferred stock for 2001 was $347,000. BENEFIT OF SERIES D STOCK REDEMPTION. In 2000, we redeemed 226,346 shares of Series D preferred stock with a carrying amount of $1,131,300 for $40,000 from the prior owners of an acquired business, as part of a severance settlement. We have reflected the excess of the carrying amount over the consideration given of $1,091,730 as a benefit of Series D redemption. In 2001, we redeemed 99,470 shares of Series D preferred stock with a carrying amount of $497,350 for $100,000 from the prior owners of an acquired business. We have reflected the excess of the carrying amount over the consideration given of $397,350 as a benefit of Series D redemption in 2001. NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS In June 2001, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued SFAS No. 141, "Business Combinations," and SFAS No. 142, "Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets." SFAS No. 142 is effective for ThermoView as of January 1, 2002. Under the new rules, goodwill and indefinite lived intangible assets will no longer be amortized but will be reviewed annually for impairment. Intangible assets that are not deemed to have an indefinite life will continue to be amortized over their useful lives. The adoption of SFAS No. 142 requires that an initial impairment assessment be performed on all goodwill and indefinite lived intangible assets. To complete this assessment, we will compare the fair value to the current carrying value of goodwill. Fair values will be derived using cash flow analysis. Any impairment charge resulting from this initial assessment will be recorded as a cumulative effect of an accounting change. We estimate the cumulative effect of adopting this standard will result in a non-cash charge in the first quarter of 2002 of at least $30 million on a pretax basis. We expect that the adoption of this new standard will also benefit earnings beginning in 2002 by approximately $2.7 million in reduced amortization of goodwill. Prior to the adoption of this standard, the Company evaluated its goodwill for impairment based upon anticipated future undiscounted cash flows. In August 2001, FASB issued SFAS No. 144, "ACCOUNTING FOR THE IMPAIRMENT OR DISPOSAL OF LONG-LIVED ASSETS," which addresses financial accounting and reporting for the impairment of long-lived assets and for long-lived assets to be disposed of. SFAS No. 144 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2001, with early adoption permitted. Management is currently evaluating the provisions of SFAS No. 144, but does not expect the adoption of SFAS No. 144 to have a significant impact on the Company's financial position or results of operations. However, future impairment reviews may result in charges against earnings to write down the value of long-lived assets. 27

Complast was a supplier of extruded components for the manufacture of window systems, originally located in Minneapolis, Minnesota. Upon acquisition, the joint venture was located in Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada, in one of Royal Group's manufacturing plants. Under the terms of the agreement, ThermoView owns 40 percent of the joint venture and Royal Group owns 60 percent. The Company's interest in this joint venture will be accounted for using the equity method. The joint venture will produce and sell extrusions consisting of composites of acrylonitrile butadiene styrene (ABS) and other materials. Additionally, ThermoView agreed to purchase extrusions from the joint venture or an affiliate of the Royal Group for seven years, subject to meeting demand, being price competitive and meeting industry quality standards. LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES As of December 31, 2001, we had cash and cash equivalents of $2.4 million, working capital of $2.0 million, $17.6 million of long-term debt, net of current maturities, and $6.9 million of mandatorily redeemable preferred stock. Our operating activities for 2001 provided $3.1 million of cash. As of December 31, 2000, we had cash and cash equivalents of $392,000, a working capital deficiency of $1.4 million, $22.9 million of long-term debt, net of current maturities, $822,000 of non current amounts due to sellers of acquired businesses and other long-term liabilities, and $6.2 million of mandatorily redeemable preferred stock. Our operating activities for 2000 used $810,000 of cash. Investing activities included investments in property and equipment of $510,000 in 2001 and cash of $174,000 was provided by the sale of finance receivables and by other investing activities in 2001. Additional purchase price related to acquisitions accounted for the use of $1.0 million of cash in 2000. Investing in property and equipment amounted to $878,000 in 2000. Cash was provided by finance receivables of $477,000 and by other of $73,000. Financing activities used $814,000 of cash in 2001. The financing activities primarily relate to the debt restructuring that occurred in March 2001 and redemption of $100,000 of Series D preferred stock. We used cash 28
10-K40530th Page of 74TOC1stPreviousNextBottomJust 30th
for financing activities in 2000 to make long-term debt payments of $687,000 and to pay preferred stock dividends of $101,000. Under our financing arrangements (including those arrangements in place after debt restructuring discussed below), substantially all of our assets are pledged as collateral. We are required to maintain certain financial ratios and to comply with various other covenants and restrictions under the terms of the financing agreements, including restrictions as to additional financings, the payment of dividends and the incurrence of additional indebtedness. In connection with waiving defaults at June 30, 2000, PNC required us to repay $5 million of our $15 million credit facility with them by December 27, 2000. We were unable to make the required December 27, 2000 payment, violated various other covenants, and were declared in default by PNC Bank in early January 2001. The declaration of default by PNC Bank also served as a condition of default under the senior subordinated promissory note to GE Equity. GE Equity and a group of our officers and directors purchased the PNC note in March 2001, and all defaults relating to the GE Equity note and the purchased PNC Bank note were waived. If we default in the future under our debt arrangements, the lenders can, among other items, accelerate all amounts owed and increase interest rates on our debt. An event of default could result in the loss of our subsidiaries because of the pledge of our ownership in all of our subsidiaries to the lenders. The steps that management has taken to increase cash flows and achieve better operating results during 2001 and in future periods are as follows: - The merger, expansion and plant relocation of two of our acquired manufacturers (Precision Window Mfg., Inc. and TD Windows, Inc.) during late 1999 and early 2000 was unsuccessful, resulting in closure of these businesses in 2000, which eliminated the losses and cash needs of these under performing operations. In addition, our retail operations that relied on window supplies from these manufacturers had improved results when they shifted to unrelated window suppliers and again received high-quality windows on a timely basis. - American Home Developers, one of our southern California retail acquisitions, incurred losses and had negative cash flow in the first half of 2000. Since this subsidiary sold to a different customer base and the development of its product mix was moving contrary to the diversified home improvement product mix of our other southern California locations, management concluded in June 2000 that closing this unprofitable operation and abandoning its underlying business was a better alternative than trying to merge the subsidiary with our other businesses. - We closed Key Home Credit, our finance subsidiary, in July 2000 since expanding the subsidiary would have required considerable capital. We decided that we could more effectively employ capital to expand our retail business. - We have taken steps to reduce administrative expenditures principally by terminating corporate employees and relocating our corporate headquarters to one of our subsidiary locations. 29
10-K40531st Page of 74TOC1stPreviousNextBottomJust 31st
- We are also taking steps to reduce administrative expenditures at all of our subsidiaries by eliminating personnel, merging operations where appropriate, and standardizing procedures. - We restructured our debt to eliminate the need for any significant debt payments until 2004. In connection with the restructuring, some 2001 interest was forgiven and some was added to principal so that we had to pay cash interest of about $500,000 in 2001 compared to cash interest of about $2.9 million in 2000. - We restructured our mandatorily redeemable preferred stock to eliminate the payment of all cash dividends until 2003 and to defer any redemption until 2004. See Notes 7, 8 and 12 of our consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this Form 10-K for more information regarding the above noted closings of operations, our debt and mandatorily redeemable preferred stock, and the restructuring of our debt and mandatorily redeemable preferred stock which occurred in March 2001. Considering the impact of all of the above steps taken by management, we believe that our cash flow from operations will allow us to meet our anticipated needs during at least the next 12 months for: - debt service requirements; - working capital requirements; and - planned property and equipment capital expenditures. We also believe in the longer term that cash will be sufficient to meet our needs. However, we do not expect to continue our acquisition program soon. We have decided, for now, to focus on improving the profitability of our existing operations and expanding the market areas of our retail subsidiaries. On or before our debt matures in 2004, we anticipate either extending the term of our current financing or refinancing it. Management intends to begin reducing debt by internally generated cash in 2002, but will keep adequate levels of cash on hand for working capital purposes. We do not expect annual capital expenditures for the next three years to significantly vary from amounts reported for the last three years, which have been in the range of $500,000 to $900,000 annually. PENDING LITIGATION ThermoView does not anticipate any significant adverse effect on our results of operations or cash flows through December 2002 because of the pending litigation described in Item 3, Legal Proceedings. Although ThermoView believes the claims in this litigation are without merit and intends to vigorously defend the suits, an adverse outcome, thereafter, in these actions, other than the Ferguson litigation, could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations and cash flow. 30

INFLATION Due to relatively low levels of inflation experienced during the years ended December 31, 1999, 2000, and 2001, inflation did not cause a significant increase in our costs. SEASONALITY Historically, our results of operations have fluctuated on a seasonal basis. We have experienced lower levels of sales and profitability during the period from mid-November to mid-March, impacting the first and fourth quarters of each year. Inclement weather conditions in the winter and spring months in our markets located in the north central United States, which limit our ability to install exterior home improvement products, reduces demand for windows, doors, vinyl siding and related products. Our intention is to expand our southern California markets and to enter other markets in the southern United States to reduce the impact of seasonality, if we have the available capital. ITEM 7a. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK In March 2001, we restructured our debt and, as a result, all of our debt is fixed rate debt. Interest rate changes would result in gains or losses in the market value of our fixed-rate debt due to the differences between the current market interest rates and the rates governing these instruments. With respect to our fixed-rate debt currently outstanding, a 10% change in interest rates (for example, from 10% to 11%) would not have resulted in a significant change in the fair value of our fixed-rate debt. 31

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS To the Board of Directors and Shareholders of ThermoView Industries, Inc.: We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheet of ThermoView Industries, Inc. (a Delaware Corporation) and subsidiaries as of December 31, 2001 and the related consolidated statements of operations, stockholders' equity, and cash flows for the year then ended. These financial statements and the schedule referred to below are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements and the schedule based on our audit. We conducted our audit in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion. In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of ThermoView Industries, Inc., and subsidiaries as of December 31, 2001, and the results of their operations and their cash flows for the year then ended, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. Our audit was made for the purpose of forming an opinion on the basic financial statements taken as a whole. The Schedule II - Valuation and Qualifying Accounts for the period ended December 31, 2001 is presented for purposes of complying with the Securities and Exchange Commission's rules and is not part of the basic financial statements. This Schedule has been subjected to the auditing procedures applied in our audit of the basic financial statements and, in our opinion, fairly states in all material respects the financial data required to be set forth therein in relation to the basic financial statements taken as a whole. /s/ ARTHUR ANDERSEN LLP ----------------------- Louisville, Kentucky February 22, 2002 34

THERMOVIEW INDUSTRIES, INC. NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS DECEMBER 31, 2001 1. ORGANIZATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES ThermoView Industries, Inc. ("the Company") is a Delaware corporation, and was traded on the OTC Bulletin Board pursuant to Rule 15c2-11(a)(5) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, from April 16, 1998 until December 2, 1999, when it began trading on the American Stock Exchange. The Company designs, manufactures, sells and installs custom vinyl replacement windows for residential and retail commercial customers. The Company also sells and installs replacement doors, textured coatings, vinyl siding, patio decks, patio enclosures, cabinet refacings, and bathroom and kitchen remodeling products, as well as residential roofing. The Company had facilities in 13 states, primarily in the Midwest and southern California. As of December 31, 2001, 19 of the Company's 900 total employees were covered by collective bargaining agreements. These agreements in place as of February 1, 2001 are set to expire February 1, 2004. Following is a summary of the Company's significant accounting policies. PRINCIPLES OF CONSOLIDATION The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated. CASH AND EQUIVALENTS The Company considers all short-term, highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less to be cash equivalents. TRADE RECEIVABLES Trade receivables consist of amounts due from customers. These are uncollateralized, short-term receivables. The Company periodically reviews its trade receivables and provides allowances as deemed necessary. INVENTORIES Inventories are recorded at the lower of cost (first-in, first-out basis) or market. Inventories consist principally of components for the manufacturing of windows such as glass, vinyl and other composites, as well as parts and supplies for retail operations. PROPERTY AND EQUIPMENT Property and equipment are stated at cost. Expenditures for major renewals and improvements which increase the useful lives of assets are capitalized. Maintenance, repairs and minor renewals are expensed as incurred. Assets are depreciated on a straight-line or accelerated method over their estimated useful lives which generally range from 3 to 7 years. 40

THERMOVIEW INDUSTRIES, INC. NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS DECEMBER 31, 2001 1. ORGANIZATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED) GOODWILL Goodwill represents the excess of the aggregate purchase price paid by the Company in acquisitions accounted for as purchases over the fair value of the net identifiable tangible and intangible assets acquired. Goodwill is amortized on a straight-line basis over 25 years. See the discussion, New Accounting Pronouncements, at the end of this footnote. ACCOUNTING FOR THE IMPAIRMENT OF LONG-LIVED ASSETS The Company evaluates its goodwill and other long-term assets for impairment and assesses their recoverability based upon anticipated future cash flows. If facts and circumstances lead the Company's management to believe that the cost of one of its assets may be impaired, the Company will (a) evaluate the extent to which that cost is recoverable by comparing the future undiscounted cash flows estimated to be associated with that asset to the asset's carrying amount and (b) write-down that carrying amount to market value or discounted cash flow value to the extent necessary. See the discussion, New Accounting Pronouncements, at the end of this footnote. WARRANTIES The Company provides its customers with various warranty programs on its products and services. The Company provides an accrual for future warranty costs based upon the relationship of prior years' revenues to actual warranty costs. It is the Company's practice to classify the entire warranty accrual as a current liability. REVENUE AND COST RECOGNITION The Company recognizes revenues from fixed-price contracts on the completed-contract method since the contracts are of a short duration. A contract is considered complete when the home improvement product has been installed. Contract costs include all direct material and labor costs and those indirect costs related to contract performance such as indirect labor and supplies. General and administrative costs are charged to expense as incurred. Provisions for estimated losses on uncompleted contracts are made in the period in which such losses are determined. Costs in excess of amounts billed are classified under current assets as costs in excess of billings on uncompleted contracts. Billings in excess of costs are classified under current liabilities as billings in excess of costs on uncompleted contracts. The Company recognizes revenues generated from unaffiliated customers in the manufacturing segment as product is shipped and title passes. SHIPPING AND HANDLING FEES AND COSTS Consistent with Emerging Issues Task Force Issue No. 00-10, "ACCOUNTING FOR SHIPPING AND HANDLING FEES AND COSTS" (EITF 00-10), the Company classifies shipping and handling amounts billed to customers as revenues. 41

THERMOVIEW INDUSTRIES, INC. NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS DECEMBER 31, 2001 1. ORGANIZATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED) Shipping and handling costs are included as a component of cost of revenues earned. Shipping and handling amounts billed to customers were $195,859 in 1999, $209,728 in 2000 and $230,709 in 2001. ADVERTISING COSTS The Company expenses advertising costs as incurred. Advertising expense was $4,271,594 in 1999, $3,439,758 in 2000, and $3,764,840 in 2001. Such expenses are included within selling, general and administrative expenses in the accompanying statement of operations. INCOME TAXES Income taxes are provided for under the liability method, which takes into account differences between financial statement treatment and tax treatment of certain transactions. LOSS PER COMMON SHARE The Company calculates basic earnings per common share using the weighted average number of shares outstanding for the period. The weighted average number of shares outstanding for the years ended December 31, 1999, 2000, and 2001, includes shares related to a stock purchase warrant that can be exercised for nominal cash consideration of $.03 per share (see Note 7). Diluted earnings per common share include both the weighted average number of shares and any common share equivalents such as options or warrants in the calculation. As the Company recorded losses in 1999 and 2000, and a loss attributable to common stockholders before extraordinary item in 2001, common share equivalents outstanding would be anti-dilutive, and as such, have not been included in weighted average shares outstanding. A reconciliation of income (loss) before extraordinary item attributable to common stockholders, extraordinary item, and net income (loss) attributable to common stockholders used in computing the per share amounts are as follows: [Enlarge/Download Table] 1999 2000 2001 ---- ---- ---- Loss before extraordinary item $ (1,656,702) $ (23,275,304) $ (2,127,841) Preferred stock dividends, net of benefit of conversions and redemption (4,497,189) 4,987,383 50,670 Loss attributable to common stockholders before extra-ordinary item (6,153,891) (18,287,921) (2,077,171) Extraordinary item - - 7,150,109 Net income (loss) attributable to common stockholders $ (6,153,891) $ (18,287,921) $ 5,072,938 STOCK OPTIONS These financial statements include the disclosure requirements of Statements of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 123, "ACCOUNTING FOR STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION."

ORGANIZATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED) method prescribed by Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25 (APB 25), "ACCOUNTING FOR STOCK ISSUED TO EMPLOYEES," and related interpretations. USE OF ESTIMATES The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements. Estimates also affect the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. RECLASSIFICATIONS OF 1999 AND 2000 FINANCIAL STATEMENTS Certain reclassifications have been made to the December 31, 1999 and 2000 financial statements to conform with December 31, 2001 classifications. These reclassifications have no material effect on previously reported operating results and stockholders' equity. NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS In June 2001, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued SFAS No. 141, "BUSINESS COMBINATIONS," and SFAS No. 142, "GOODWILL AND OTHER INTANGIBLE ASSETS." SFAS No. 142 is effective for the Company as of January 1, 2002. Under the new rules, goodwill and indefinite lived intangible assets will no longer be amortized but will be reviewed annually for impairment. Intangible assets that are not deemed to have an indefinite life will continue to be amortized over their useful lives. The adoption of SFAS No. 142 requires that an initial impairment assessment be performed on all goodwill and indefinite lived intangible assets. To complete this assessment, the Company will compare the fair value to the current carrying value of goodwill. Fair values will be derived using cash flow analysis. Any impairment charge resulting from this initial assessment will be recorded as a cumulative effect of an accounting change. The Company estimates the cumulative effect of adopting this standard will result in a non-cash charge in the first quarter of 2002 of at least $30,000,000 on a pretax basis. The adoption of this new standard will also benefit earnings beginning in 2002 by approximately $2,700,000 in reduced amortization of goodwill. In August 2001, FASB issued SFAS No. 144, "ACCOUNTING FOR THE IMPAIRMENT OR DISPOSAL OF LONG-LIVED ASSETS," which addresses financial accounting and reporting for the impairment of long-lived assets and for long-lived assets to be disposed of. SFAS No. 144 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2001, with early adoption permitted. Management is currently evaluating the provisions of SFAS No. 144, but does not expect the adoption of SFAS No. 144 to have a significant impact on the Company's financial position or results of operations. However, future impairment reviews may result in charges against earnings to write down the value of long-lived assets. See the discussion, Accounting for Impairment of Long-Lived Assets, above. 43

THERMOVIEW INDUSTRIES, INC. NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS DECEMBER 31, 2001 2. BUSINESS COMBINATIONS (CONTINUED) (l) During 2000, the seller of this business returned 76,263 shares of common stock to ThermoView as an adjustment to the purchase price. The 76,263 shares were originally valued at $1,298,469, and this amount has now been reversed from goodwill and stockholders' equity. The above acquisitions have been accounted for as purchase transactions and, accordingly, the results of operations of the acquired businesses have been included in the consolidated financial statements since the respective acquisition dates. These companies are engaged primarily in the businesses of manufacturing replacement windows or selling and installing them in the residential retail market. The accompanying consolidated balance sheets as of December 31, 2000 and 2001 include allocations of the respective purchase prices to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on estimates of fair value with the excess of cost over the fair value of net assets acquired recorded as goodwill. The terms of certain of the Company's acquisition agreements provided for additional consideration to be paid if the acquired entities' results of operations exceeded certain targeted levels, generally for a period of three years subsequent to the acquisition dates. Targeted levels were generally set at the annual earnings of the acquired entities before interest and taxes, allowing for the add back of certain salaries and other costs that will not be incurred on a post-acquisition basis. Such additional consideration was paid in cash and with shares of the Company's common stock or preferred stock, and was recorded when earned as additional purchase price. Goodwill was increased for any additional purchase price. The following unaudited pro forma consolidated results of operations are presented as if the acquisitions of the twelve purchased companies had occurred on January 1: [Download Table] (UNAUDITED) Year ended December 31, 1999 -------------------------- Net revenues $ 110,700,351 Net loss (1,628,742) Net loss applicable to common stockholders (6,125,931) Basic and diluted loss per common share (1.18) The pro forma consolidated results of operations include adjustments to give effect to amortization of goodwill, interest expense, preferred stock dividends, and certain other adjustments. The unaudited pro forma information is not necessarily indicative of the results of operations that would have occurred had the acquisitions occurred on January 1 or of the future results of the combined operations. 46

THERMOVIEW INDUSTRIES, INC. NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS DECEMBER 31, 2001 7. LONG-TERM DEBT (CONTINUED) The following is a schedule by years of future maturities of long-term debt as of December 31, 2001: [Download Table] 2002 $ 285,411 2003 207,174 2004 17,399,719 2005 25,074 ------------------ Total $ 17,917,378 ================== On August 31, 1998, the Company entered into a loan agreement with PNC for a $15,000,000 revolving credit facility. The interest rate was a LIBOR-based variable rate which was 8.69% at December 31, 1999 and 10.73% at December 31, 2000. Interest on the line of credit was payable monthly and principal was payable in full at maturity. On April 14, 2000, the maturity date of the credit facility was extended from January 1, 2001 to May 1, 2001. Four stockholders of the Company (two of whom were also officers and directors of the Company at the time) also agreed to guarantee a total of $3,000,000 of the credit facility for fees equal to an annual rate of 5% of the $3,000,000 from April 2000 through June 2000 and 10% thereafter. These fees totaled $205,992 in 2000. On July 8, 1999, the Company entered into a senior subordinated promissory note agreement with GE Capital Equity Investments, Inc. (GE Equity) for $10,000,000. Terms of the agreement require 12% interest, payable quarterly. The agreement provides for redemption in whole or in part at the Company's option at a 103% premium the first year, 102% the second year and 101% the third year. The Company must redeem $10,000,000 (or such lesser amount as then may be outstanding) without premium on the maturity date in July 2002. Upon a change in control of the Company, GE Equity has the option to require the Company to redeem all or a portion of the note with a premium due as set forth above. As discussed below, certain terms of this debt have been modified, including the fourth quarter 2000 and all of 2001 interest due being added to principal, and the maturity dates of the principal extended to March and April, 2004. In connection with the loan agreement, GE Equity was issued a warrant with the right to purchase 555,343 shares of common stock at any time at $.03 per share (the number of shares being subject to adjustment in certain circumstances) until July 2007. In May 2000, one of the stipulated circumstances occurred causing adjustment, so GE Equity now has warrants to purchase 561,343 shares of common stock at $.03 per share. The portion of the proceeds from this loan allocable to the detachable stock purchase warrant amounting to $4,800,000 has been accounted for as paid-in capital (less a prorata share of issue costs of $339,452) with the resulting discount, as well as a prorata share of issue costs of $360,303 to be accounted for as additional interest over the term of the loan. GE Equity has certain demand and piggy-back registration rights with respect to common stock underlying the warrant. On October 14, 1999, the Company secured a $2,500,000 line of credit from PNC Bank, N.A., with interest at prime plus 1%. In accordance with its terms, the $2,125,000 that had been drawn on the line was repaid from proceeds of the Company's public common stock offering discussed in Note 10. The line was guaranteed by four of the Company's stockholders for fees of $100,000. Three of the four stockholders were at that time also directors of the Company. 49

THERMOVIEW INDUSTRIES, INC. NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS DECEMBER 31, 2001 7. LONG-TERM DEBT (CONTINUED) On March 22, 2001, ThermoView substantially restructured its debt. Under the Company's financing arrangements, substantially all of the Company's assets are pledged as collateral. The Company is required to maintain certain financial ratios and to comply with various other covenants and restrictions under the terms of the financing agreements, including restriction as to the payment of dividends and the incurrence of additional indebtedness. In connection with waiving defaults at June 30, 2000, PNC required the Company to repay $5 million of the credit facility by December 27, 2000. The Company was unable to make the required December 27, 2000 payment, violated various other covenants, and was declared in default by PNC in early January 2001. The declaration of default by PNC also served as a condition of default under the senior subordinated promissory note to GE Equity. The PNC note was purchased by GE Equity and a group of officers and directors of the Company in March 2001, and all defaults relating to the GE Equity note and the purchased PNC note were waived. The PNC debt outstanding as of December 31, 2000 is classified as long-term since the debt was either forgiven or replaced with other long-term debt in March 2001. The Company owed PNC $14,719,991 as of December 31, 2000. In January 2001, PNC exercised their right to seize $3,000,000 of collateral provided to them by four guarantors of the PNC debt. This reduced the PNC debt balance to $11,719,991. The remaining balance of $11,719,991 was settled for cash of $5,250,000 and the issuance of a warrant to PNC to purchase 200,000 shares of the Company's common stock at $.28 per share. The warrant is exercisable through March 2011. The forgiveness of debt principal by PNC of approximately $6.5 million and the accrued interest on the debt from January 1, 2001 through March 22, 2001, net of related expenses which includes the fair value of the common stock purchase warrant issued to PNC, has been reported by ThermoView as an extraordinary credit of $6,584,109, in the first quarter of 2001. The settlement with PNC was consummated by restatement of the original PNC note dated August 31, 1998 and by issuing (i) a Series A sub-note payable to GE Equity in the amount of $3,000,000; (ii) Series B sub-notes payable to each of the Series B lenders (officers, directors, employees and consultants) in the total amount of $2,250,000; and (iii) a new Series C sub-note payable to GE Equity in the amount of $6,250,000 face amount ($4,750,000 net of debt discount) representing a portion of GE Equity's original subordinated note of $10,000,000. Also, GE Equity agreed to add interest on this $6,250,000 senior debt to principal through December 31, 2001. The GE Equity subordinated debt originally had a face amount of $10,000,000, and at December 31, 2000 had a balance of $7,600,000 net of debt discount ($7,900,000 with deferred interest). Since $6,250,000 of this debt became senior debt, the remaining face amount was $3,750,000 ($2,850,000 net of debt discount). The maturity date of the subordinated debt was changed from July 2002 to April 30, 2004. Also, GE Equity agreed to add interest on the subordinated debt to principal for the fourth quarter of 2000 and all of 2001. Collectively, the Series A, B and C sub-notes represent senior debt of the Company. The senior debt bears interest at a rate of 10% per annum, and will mature March 31, 2004. ThermoView also issued to the Series A and B senior lenders warrants to purchase 957,030 shares of its common stock at 50

THERMOVIEW INDUSTRIES, INC. NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS DECEMBER 31, 2001 7. LONG-TERM DEBT (CONTINUED) $.28 per share. These warrants are exercisable through March 2011. The fair value of the warrants amounting to $392,382 has been accounted for as debt discount and is being amortized over the term of the debt. These warrants, as well as the warrant issued to PNC, have certain demand and piggy-back registration rights with respect to common stock underlying the warrants. Two of the four guarantors received promissory notes for $1,200,000 at 6% interest in full settlement of any potential obligation related to $2,000,000 of funds forfeited to PNC when they exercised their rights under their credit agreement. The $1,200,000 notes mature June 30, 2004. Total interest on the notes through maturity approximates $234,000. Since the principal amounts of the notes and the interest totaling approximately $1,434,000 is less than the $2,000,000 obligation, an extraordinary gain amounting to approximately $566,000 was reported by the Company in the first quarter of 2001. The other two guarantors who guaranteed $500,000 of the PNC debt each have not settled possible claims related to forfeiture of their respective collateral. The Board of Directors and management of the Company now have the opinion, because of subsequent developments, that none of the $1,000,000 remaining obligation should be paid. Nevertheless, the Company has recorded a $1,000,000 liability for possible future claims which is classified as long-term since it is not expected to be repaid before the senior restated notes mature. Cash paid for interest was $2,224,339, $2,928,759, and $503,707 for 1999, 2000, and 2001, respectively. Interest expense on related party debt was $170,824 for 1999 and $94,850 for 2000, and $172,438 for 2001. The fair value of the Company's long-term debt at December 31, 2001 approximates $14,500,000 and is based upon the present value of the underlying cash flows discounted at the current estimated borrowing rates which might be available to the Company. 8. MANDATORILY REDEEMABLE PREFERRED STOCK On April 19, 1999, the Board of Directors authorized the Company to issue up to 25,000 shares of Series C preferred stock. On April 23, 1999, Brown Simpson Growth Fund, L.P., a New York limited partnership, and Brown Simpson Growth Fund, Ltd., a Grand Cayman, Cayman Islands limited partnership, pursuant to a securities purchase agreement, purchased 6,000 shares of Series C preferred stock at $1,000 per share for a total investment of $6,000,000. The Series C preferred stock had various redemption rights and conversion rights and required dividend payments (9.6% per annum) payable in the form of 70% cash and 30% Company common stock. In conjunction with the issuance of the Series C preferred stock, the Company issued warrants to purchase up to a total of 400,000 shares of common stock at $21.00 per share (the number of shares and exercise price being subject to adjustment in certain circumstances) at any time until April 22, 2004. 51

MANDATORILY REDEEMABLE PREFERRED STOCK (CONTINUED) The portion of the proceeds from this mandatorily redeemable preferred stock issue equal to the estimated fair value of the detachable stock purchase warrants amounting to $1,980,000 has been allocated to paid-in capital (less a prorata share of issue costs of $196,330) with the resulting discount, as well as a prorata share of issue costs of $398,610, being accounted for as additional dividends to the preferred stockholders from the date of issue to the earliest redemption date (October 23, 2000). In addition, since the Series C preferred stock had a beneficial conversion feature at the date of issue, $1,200,000 is included in non-cash preferred dividends in the accompanying consolidated statement of operations for the year ended December 31, 1999. In August 1999, the Company amended the exercise price of the aforementioned warrants to $18.00 per share in exchange for a commitment of the holders to refrain from selling any securities of the Company until January 31, 2000. The estimated increase in fair value of the warrants amounting to $180,000 as the result of the change in the exercise price was accounted for as additional dividends to the preferred stockholders from August 1999 through January 2000. As mentioned above, the Series C preferred stock agreement contained terms that required increases in the number of common shares exercisable under the stock purchase warrants and adjustments to the exercise price of such warrants. In May 2000, one of the stipulated circumstances occurred and, accordingly, the holders of the mandatorily redeemable preferred stock as of May 2000 had warrants to purchase 600,000 shares (increased from 400,000 shares) of common stock at $12.00 per share (reduced from $18.00 per share). In August 2000, the holders of the mandatorily redeemable preferred stock agreed to be paid dividends with 100% Company common stock. In December 2000, the holders of the $6,000,000 of mandatorily redeemable Series C preferred stock agreed to convert all of its $6 million of preferred stock, including related warrants, into a warrant to purchase 1,100,000 shares of common stock of the Company at an exercise price of $.28 per share. The warrant is exercisable at any time until April 22, 2004. The holder of the warrant has certain demand and piggy-back registration rights with respect to common stock underlying the warrant. The excess of the carrying amount of the Series C preferred stock ($6 million) and the current fair value of the warrants to purchase 600,000 shares of common stock of the Company at $12 per share over the fair value of the warrant to purchase 1,100,000 shares of common stock of the Company at $.28 per share has been reflected as a $5,809,000 benefit of converting the Series C preferred stock to a warrant in arriving at loss applicable to common stockholders in the accompanying consolidated statement of operations for 2000. In April 2000, the Company completed negotiations to satisfy its obligations under certain earn-out provisions with previous owners of the Company's subsidiaries. As a result of the negotiations, the Board of Directors authorized 1,500,000 shares of 12% Series D cumulative preferred stock ($.001 par value and $5.00 stated value), and the Company then issued 1,417,000 shares to the previous owners in lieu of cash to satisfy $7,085,000 of obligations to them. An additional 22,316 shares of Series D preferred 52

THERMOVIEW INDUSTRIES, INC. NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS DECEMBER 31, 2001 8. MANDATORILY REDEEMABLE PREFERRED STOCK (CONTINUED) stock have been issued to compensate the previous owners for interest earned amounting to $111,580 prior to settlement of the obligations. The Series D preferred stock is senior to the common stock of the Company and is on parity with the Series E preferred stock discussed below. The Series D preferred stock requires cumulative dividends at the rate of $.60 per share annually, or an annual rate of 12%. The shares of Series D preferred stock are redeemable by the Company at its option, in whole or in part, for cash or common stock that equals the liquidation value of the shares redeemed. The shares of Series D preferred stock are not convertible into common stock, have no voting rights and contain no registration rights. A venture capital firm loaned one of the previous owners $1,500,000 at 12% interest, and collateralized the loan with the previous owner's 1,113,500 shares of 12% Series D cumulative preferred stock. A stockholder, who also is a director of the Company, and a stockholder and former director of the Company have an ownership interest in the venture capital firm. In September 2000, holders of approximately $5.7 million, or about 79% of the Series D preferred stock, agreed to the restructure of terms. As a result of the agreement, dividends payable to the holders of the stock will not begin to accrue until October 2001. Also, the Series D preferred stock was revised to add a mandatory redemption provision which requires 20% annual redemption of this preferred stock, in addition to other series of preferred stock on a parity basis, over a period of five years, beginning October 1, 2001 (revised to July 1, 2004). Penalties in the form of a 2% increase per annum in the dividend rate, limited to a maximum adjusted dividend rate of 16% per annum, will apply to those portions of preferred stock that are not timely redeemed, which also applies to the Series E preferred stock discussed below. The Company subsequently redeemed, in December 2000, 226,346 shares of the Series D preferred stock with a carrying amount of $1,131,300 for $40,000 from the prior owners of an acquired business, as part of a severance settlement. The excess of the carrying amount over the consideration given of $1,091,730 has been reflected as a redemption benefit in arriving at loss applicable to common stockholders in the accompanying consolidated statement of operations for 2000. In 2001, the Company redeemed 99,470 shares of Series D preferred stock with a carrying value of $497,350 for $100,000 from the prior owners of an acquired business. ThermoView has reflected the excess of the carrying amount over the consideration given of $397,350 as a benefit of Series D redemption in 2001. The remaining approximate 21% or $1.5 million of the Series D preferred stock was converted into 300,000 shares of 12% Series E cumulative preferred stock ($.001 par value and $5.00 stated value). The Series E preferred stock is senior to the common stock of the Company and is on parity with the Series D preferred stock. The Series E preferred stock will pay cumulative dividends at the rate of $.60 per share annually, or an annual rate of 12% subject to the availability of such funds. The undeclared cumulative dividends at December 31, 2001 amount to $144,716 and $330,677 for the Series D and E, respectively. The shares of Series E preferred stock are not convertible into common stock, have no voting rights and contain no registration rights. The Series E has a mandatory redemption provision which requires 20% annual redemption of this preferred stock, in addition to other series of preferred stock on a parity basis, over a period of five years, beginning October 1, 2001 (revised to July 1, 2004). 53

THERMOVIEW INDUSTRIES, INC. NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS DECEMBER 31, 2001 8. MANDATORILY REDEEMABLE PREFERRED STOCK (continued) In July 2000, a stockholder/director of the Company loaned a previous owner $183,000 at 9% interest as a partial temporary advance toward the $450,000 amount reflected as due to sellers of acquired businesses in the accompanying consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2000. Also, the $450,000 amount due to sellers was converted to Series D and Series E preferred stock in 2001. This amount has been classified as a long-term amount due to sellers of acquired businesses in the accompanying consolidated balance sheet, since it has been refinanced with preferred stock in March 2001. 9.

These net operating losses expire in 2018 through 2020. The $7.9 million carryforward is after reduction of $7.2 million representing a Section 108(a) adjustment related to the extraordinary gain on forgiveness of debt. In 2000, management concluded that it is more likely than not that the Company's deferred tax assets will not be realized. Accordingly, deferred tax assets have been fully offset by a valuation allowance at December 31, 2000 and 2001. Cash paid for income taxes was $342,362 in 1999, $83,708 in 2000, and $63,027 in 2001. 10. STOCKHOLDERS' EQUITY In June 2000, the Company's stockholders approved reducing the amount of authorized shares of common stock from 100 million to 25 million shares and preferred stock from 50 million to 5 million shares. In addition, the Company's stockholders authorized the Company to issue up to 3.75 million shares of common stock in one or more private placements. SERIES A AND B PREFERRED STOCK On June 12, 1998, the Company commenced a Series A preferred stock offering for the sale of a maximum of 4,000,000 shares of its 10% Cumulative Convertible Series A preferred stock (the "Series A preferred stock") at $5.00 per share. On October 15, 1998, the date the preferred stock offering terminated, 2,980,000 shares of Series A preferred stock had been sold and the Company collected $14,513,583 in proceeds, after issuance costs. In October 1998, the Company's Board of Directors authorized the Company to issue up to 4,000,000 shares of 10% Cumulative Series B preferred stock (the "Series B preferred stock") to be used as consideration in certain acquisitions.

At December 31, 1999, following the closing of the public offering of common stock discussed below, all of the shares of Series A and Series B preferred stock were converted into 1,126,667 shares of common stock pursuant to the terms of the preferred stock.

Plan participants may make salary reduction contributions to the plan which are subject to Internal Revenue Service contribution limitations. The Company makes matching employer contributions of twenty-five percent of the first six percent of the employees' contributions. Employee contributions vest immediately. Employer contributions vest over a six-year period. The Company contributed $105,328 to this plan in 1999, $282,431 to this plan in 2000, and $234,963 in 2001. 12. UNUSUAL CHARGES As a result of the Company's decisions to reduce emphasis on the manufacturing segment and to enhance cash flow and profitability of the Company's retail operations, the Company recorded unusual charges of $11,150,000 in 2000. The unusual charges specifically relate to management's and the Board's decisions to close and abandon two ThermoView subsidiaries' operations as follows: OPERATION ACTIVITY Precision Window Mfg., Inc. Manufacturer of windows in St. Louis, (Precision) Missouri American Home Developers Co., Inc. Retailer of primarily textured (American Home Developers) coatings in Los Angeles, California 61

THERMOVIEW INDUSTRIES, INC. NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS DECEMBER 31, 2001 12. UNUSUAL CHARGES (CONTINUED) The Company's consolidated results of operations for 1999 and 2000 include the following amounts for these entities: [Download Table] INCOME (LOSS) FROM OPERATIONS FOR THE YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 1999 REVENUES BEFORE UNUSUAL CHARGES ------------------------------------ -------- ---------------------- Precision $ 7,607,208 $ 543,547 American Home Developers 4,401,973 (174,624) FOR THE YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2000 ------------------------------------ Precision $ 2,878,600 $ (2,042,985) American Home Developers 1,473,200 (487,785) The unusual charges consist of the following: [Enlarge/Download Table] AMERICAN HOME PRECISION DEVELOPERS TOTAL --------- ---------- ----- Goodwill write-off $ 3,075,484 $ 6,891,348 $ 9,966,832 Write down of tangible assets to net realizable value 793,168 10,000 803,168 Reserve for expected loss on lease 180,000 - 180,000 Additional warranty accrual 200,000 - 200,000 ----------------- ----------------- ------------------ $ 4,248,652 $ 6,901,348 $ 11,150,000 ================= ================= ================== Precision had significant operating losses in 2000, and management was not successful in locating a purchaser of the business. Because of the poor operating performance of Precision in 2000 and anticipated future losses, management and the Board decided in June 2000 to close this subsidiary and abandon the business. The Company substantially completed this process in August 2000. The writedown of tangible assets to net realizable value noted above relates to Precision's inventories and equipment expected to be sold below cost based on estimates of selling prices. Precision's warranty reserve has been adjusted for the expected increase in warranty costs which will occur as a result of having to use an outside party to perform warranty work once Precision is closed. Precision's manufacturing facilities are leased under an agreement and the expected loss on the lease was estimated to be $180,000. American Home Developers incurred losses and had negative cash flow in 2000. Since this subsidiary sold to a different customer base and the development of its product mix was moving contrary to the diversified home improvement product mix of ThermoView's other southern California locations, management concluded in June 2000 that closing this unprofitable operation and abandoning its underlying business was a better alternative than trying to merge the subsidiary with other ThermoView businesses. The operation was closed in July 2000. 13. CONTINGENCIES AND COMMITMENTS On March 3, 2000, Pro Futures Bridge Capital Fund, L.P. and Bridge Capital Partners, Inc. Defined Benefit Pension Plan filed an action titled PRO FUTURES BRIDGE CAPITAL FUND, L.P. V. THERMOVIEW INDUSTRIES, INC., ET AL., Civil Action No. 00CV0559 (Colo. Dist. Ct., March 3, 2000) against ThermoView, its directors, certain officers, an employee and a stockholder 62

THERMOVIEW INDUSTRIES, INC. NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS DECEMBER 31, 2001 13. CONTINGENCIES AND COMMITMENTS (CONTINUED) alleging breach of contract, common law fraud, fraudulent misstatements and omissions in connection with the sale of securities, negligent misrepresentations and breach of fiduciary duty. These claims are in connection with the mandatory conversion of ThermoView's 10% Series A convertible preferred stock, held by the two funds, into common stock upon completion of the initial public offering in December 1999, and purchases by the two funds of ThermoView's common stock from ThermoView stockholders. The funds are seeking rescission of their purchases of the series A preferred stock in the amount of $3,250,000, plus interest and unspecified damages in connection with their purchases of the common stock. ThermoView filed a notice to dismiss certain claims and an answer denying liability on the remainder of the clams. ThermoView also exercised an election for the removal of the action to the US District Court of Colorado, and the matter was designated by the US District Court as Civil Action No. 00-B-722. Pro Futures filed a motion to remand the action back to the original venue. The Court rendered an opinion which dismissed certain named individuals due to lack of personal jurisdiction in Colorado courts and retained venue within the US District Court. In December 2001, the Court granted summary judgment dismissing all defendants. In January 2002, Pro Futures filed a notice of appeal to the Court's decision. Although ThermoView continues to believe that the claims are without merit and intends to vigorously defend the suit, we cannot predict the outcome of the matter, however, it could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations and cash flow. No amounts have been provided in the accompanying consolidated financial statements for this matter. On August 1, 2001, Scott Ferguson filed a civil action styled SCOTT FERGUSON V. THERMOVIEW INDUSTRIES, INC., ET. AL., Civil Action No. 01-CI-005295 (Jefferson Circuit Court, August 1, 2001) seeking damages resulting from an investment in Series A preferred stock. This suit alleges claims similar to the claims advanced by ProFutures Bridge Capital Fund, L.P. and Bridge Capital Partners, Inc. Defined Benefit Pension Plan, in their action detailed above. By agreement of the parties, the claims will be held in abeyance until final resolution of the ProFutures matter. Our management believes that we have adequate defense to this litigation, and in the event of an adverse outcome to us, we do not believe that the loss would have a material adverse effect on us. On November 19, 2001, Nelson E. Clemmens, former director and president of the Company, filed an action titled NELSON E. CLEMMENS V. THERMOVIEW INDUSTRIES, INC., Civil Action No. 01-CI-07901 (Jefferson Circuit Court, November 19, 2001) against ThermoView alleging subrogation and indemnity rights associated with Mr. Clemmens' loss of guaranty collateral to PNC Bank, N.A. These claims are in connection with the April 2000 amendment to ThermoView's previous bank debt with PNC Bank, in which Stephen A. Hoffmann, Richard E. Bowlds, Nelson E. Clemmens and Douglas I. Maxwell, III guaranteed $3,000,000 of our PNC Bank debt. In January 2001, PNC seized the collateral pledged as security by the guarantors for the loan guaranty. In March 2001, ThermoView reached settlements with Messrs. Bowlds and Hoffmann for any claims that they may hold against us regarding their loss of assets in connection with the guaranty. We did not reach a settlement with Messrs. Clemmens and Maxwell with regard to guaranty of $1,000,000. The Clemmens suit seeks to determine the respective rights and duties of the parties concerning the loss of collateral. Our management believes that no payment should be made for loss of guarantor collateral and we have filed an answer and counter-claim in defense of our legal position. An unfavorable determination of our position regarding this matter could have a material adverse effect on our cash flow. 63

THERMOVIEW INDUSTRIES, INC. NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS DECEMBER 31, 2001 13. CONTINGENCIES AND COMMITMENTS (CONTINUED) The Company is subject to other legal proceedings and claims which have arisen in the ordinary course of its business and have not been finally adjudicated. Although there can be no assurance as to the ultimate disposition of these matters, it is the opinion of the Company's management, based upon the information available at this time, that the expected outcome of these matters, individually or in the aggregate, will not have a material adverse effect on the results of operations and financial condition of the Company. In March 2000, the Company entered into a license agreement with Research Frontiers Incorporated (Research Frontiers), a Delaware corporation with headquarters located in Woodbury, New York, for the non-exclusive rights to market windows which utilize variable light transmission technology developed by Research Frontiers. The agreement provides for the payment of a royalty of 5% of the net selling price of the licensed products as defined in the agreement to Research Frontiers for products sold by us that incorporate such technology. Additionally, the Company has agreed to pay to Research Frontiers an annual minimum royalty of $37,500 for 2002 and $100,000 for 2003. The royalty is payable in cash or shares of the Company's common stock at the Company's option. Expense related to this agreement totaled $50,000 and $37,500 for 2000 and 2001, respectively. 14. SEGMENT INFORMATION The Company's business units have separate management teams and infrastructures that operate primarily in the vinyl replacement windows, doors and related home improvement products industry in various states in the Midwest and in Southern California. The business units have been aggregated into three reportable operating segments: retail, manufacturing, and financial services. RETAIL The retail segment includes the businesses that design, sell and install vinyl replacement windows, doors and related home improvement products to commercial and retail customers. MANUFACTURING The manufacturing segment includes the businesses that manufacture and sell vinyl replacement windows to the Company's retail segment and to unaffiliated customers. FINANCIAL SERVICES During 1999 and the first half of 2000, the financial services segment financed a relatively small portion of the credit sales of the retail segment. Key Home Credit, ThermoView's Owensboro, Kentucky, finance subsidiary, was closed in July 2000 since expanding the subsidiary would have required considerable capital. The accounting policies of the segments are the same as those described in Note 1. Intersegment sales prices are comparable to sales prices charged 64

Complast was a supplier of extruded components for the manufacture of window systems, originally located in Minneapolis, Minnesota. Upon acquisition, the joint venture was located in Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada, in one of Royal Group's manufacturing plants. Under the terms of the agreement, ThermoView owns 40 percent of the joint venture and Royal Group owns 60 percent. The Company's interest in this joint venture will be accounted for using the equity method. The joint venture will produce and sell extrusions consisting of composites of acrylonitrile butadiene styrene (ABS) and other materials. Additionally, ThermoView agreed to purchase extrusions from the joint venture or an affiliate of the Royal Group for seven years, subject to meeting demand, being price competitive and meeting industry quality standards. 66
