NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

A. Basis for Presentation

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been
prepared in accordance with the instructions of Form 10-Q and do not
include all the information and footnotes required by generally
accepted accounting principles for complete financial statement.
In the opinion of management,all adjustments (consisting of normal
recurring adjustments) considered necessary for fair presentation have
been included. Operating results for the six months ended May 31,
2003 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be obtained
for the year ending November 30, 2003. These statements should be read
in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes
thereto included in the Registration's Form 10-K for the year ended
November 30, 2002 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on
February 28,2003.

B. Net Income (Loss) Per Common Share

Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 128, "Earnings Per Share",
provides for the calculation of "Basic" and "Diluted" earnings per share.
Basic earnings (loss) per share includes no dilution and is computed by
dividing income (loss) available to common stockholders by the
weighted-average number of shares outstanding during the period (9,958,446
and 10,233,637 for 2003 and 2002). Diluted earnings per share reflect the
potential of securities that could share in the earnings of the Company,
similar to fully diluted earnings per share.

For the periods ended May 31, 2003 and May 31, 2002, total stock options in
the amount of 750,000 and 1,020,000 are not considered in the computation
of diluted earnings per share as their inclusion would be anti-dilutive.

C. Stockholders' Equity

Purchase of Treasury Stock

On January 1, 2001, the Board of Directors granted an option to each of the
officers of the Company to purchase a total of 750,000 shares of treasury
stock at $.20 per share by December 31, 2003. The options' exercise price
was greater than the common stock's market price at the date of grant.

On July 18, 2001, the Board of Directors granted common stock options to
ten middle and senior managers of the Company. The options totaled
460,000 shares of which 165,000 shares of options expired on December
31, 2001 if not subscribed by that date. The option price was $.30 per
share. The remainder of the options were to be exercised no later than
December 31, 2002. As of December 31, 2001, 105,000 shares were subscribed
to by the managers which meant that the remaining 60,000 options expired
as of that date. Three senior managers were given, as a bonus for 2001,
an additional 16,667 shares (valued at $.30 per share) which were granted
on December 20,2001 when the market price was $.21 per share. As of
December 31, 2002,senior managers subscribed to 124,000 shares of options
at a price of $.30 per share. The remaining options outstanding, a total
of 171,000 shares, expired on that date.




D. Supplemental Disclosure of Cash Flow Information

Cash payments for interest were $88,000 and $116,000 for the six months
ended May 31, 2003 and May 31, 2002. Cash payments for income taxes were
$73,000 and $108,000 for the six months ended May 31, 2003 and May 31, 2002.



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

Liquidity and Capital Resources

The net cash used in operating activities increased by $1,066,000 for the
six months ended May 31, 2003 as compared the six months ended May 31, 2002
due to the decrease of net income of $346,000, and the decrease in accounts
payable of $1,096,000 and the decrease in accrued expenses and other current
liabilities of $343,000 partially offset by the decrease in accounts
receivable of $334,000 and a decrease in inventories of $670,000. The
decrease in accounts payable were primarily attributable to the decrease in
accounts receivables and inventories. The decrease in accrued expenses and
other current liabilities were primarily attributable to an approximate
$350,000 decrease in the comparative balances as of November 30, 2001 and
November 30, 2002 in accruals for bonuses, profit sharing, and income taxes,
the decrease in accounts receivables and inventories were primarily due to
lower sales volume in May 2003 as compared to May 2002; a decrease of
$2,563,000.

The net cash used in investing activities decreased by $29,000.

The net increase in cash provided by financing activities of $1,031,000
was primarily due to the increase in net borrowings to the bank of
$704,000 and an increase in checks written in excess of deposits of
$362,000. The increase in net borrowings to the bank was primarily
attributable to the reduction in accrued expenses of $343,000 and the
decrease of net income of $346,000.


On July 18, 2001, the Board of Directors granted common stock options to
ten middle and senior managers of the Company. The options totaled
460,000 shares of which 165,000 shares of options expired on December 31,
2001 if not subscribed by that date. The option price was $.30 per share.
The remainder of the options were to be exercised no later than December 31,
2002. As of December 31, 2001, 105,000 shares were subscribed to by the
managers which meant that the remaining 60,000 options expired as of that
date. Three senior managers were given, as a bonus for 2001, an additional
16,667 shares (valued at $.30 per share) which were granted on December 20,
2001 when the market price was $.21 per share.









The following is a summary of working capital and current ratio for the
periods presented:

May 31, 2003 November 30, 2002
Working Capital $3,826,000 $4,087,000
Current Ratio 1.50 to 1 2.45 to 1


The Company's working capital decreased by $261,000 during the six months
ended May 31, 2003 as compared to November 30, 2002 primarily as a result
of the decrease of $346,000 in net income. Management believes that the
present working capital is adequate to conduct its present operations. The
Company does not anticipate any additional material capital expenditures
for fiscal 2003. As of May 31, 2003, the Company and its subsidiary have an
available line-of-credit of $5,750,000. As of May 31, 2003, $3,087,000 is
unused under the line of credit. The line of credit expires on June 30,
2004. The line-of-credit agreement limits the payment of dividends by CPS
Distributors, inc. and its subsidiaries ("CPS") to HIA, Inc. CPS is the
wholly-owned subsidiary of HIA, Inc. The line-of-credit agreement also
limits the payment of any expenses of HIA, Inc. by CPS in excess of $50,000
during any twelve-month period. This restriction does not have a
significant impact on HIA, Inc.'s ability to meet its cash needs as its
cash needs are minimal. On June 17, 2003, the Company executed an amendment
to the loan agreement with Wells Fargo Bank regarding a change in the debt
covenant. The bank agreed to waive the minimum debt service covenant for
the 2nd quarter of fiscal 2003 and decrease the covenant restriction's for
the remainder of the term of the agreement.

The decrease in the current ratio as of May 31, 2003 as compared to November
30, 2002 is primarily attributable to the relative increase in accounts
payable of $3,014,000, an increase in checks written in excess of deposits
of $649,000 and the increase in bank borrowings of $1,654,000 as compared to
the increase in accounts receivable of $2,312,000, the increase in
inventories of $2,275,000 and the decrease in accrued expenses of $336,000.

Income Taxes

As of May 31, 2003, the Company has recorded a current net deferred tax
asset totaling $170,000 and has recorded a noncurrent net deferred tax
asset totaling $131,000. Based upon the Company's recent history of
taxable income and its projections for future earnings, management believes
that it is more likely than not that sufficient taxable income will be
generated in the near term to utilize the net deferred tax assets.














Results of Operations

Three Months Ended May 31, 2003 Compared to Three Months Ended May 31, 2002.

Net sales for the three months ended May 31, 2003 were down $2,368,000 as
compared to May 31, 2002 primarily due to the continued drought conditions
and economic circumstances in the Rocky Mountain Region combined with the
wet spring weather conditions experienced in the 2nd quarter of fiscal 2003
which delayed work by irrigation contractors particularly in the months of
March and April.

Cost of Sales were down $1,683,000 for the three months ended May 31, 2003
as compared to the three months ended May 31, 2002 primarily attributable to
the reduction in net sales.

Gross profit was 33.0% during the three months ended May 31, 2003 as compared
to 32.1% during the three months ended May 31, 2002 an increase of .9%. The
increase was primarily due to the change in the product mix of items sold
which lines of product were less price competitive.

Selling, general and administrative expenses for the three months ended May
31, 2003 were down $157,000 as compared to the three months ended May 31,2002.

Other expenses for the three months ended May 31, 2003 were comparable to the
three months ended May 31, 2002.

Net income decreased $355,000 for the three months ended May 31, 2003 as
compared to the three months ended May 31, 2002 primarily due to the decrease
in operating income of $528,000 partially offset by a decrease in income tax
expense of $172,000. The decrease in operating income was primarily due to
the decrease in gross profit of $685,000 primarily due to the decrease in
sales.

Six Months Ended May 31, 2003 Compared to Six Months Ended May 31, 2002.

Net sales decreased by $2,563,000 for the six months ended May 31, 2003 as
compared to May 31, 2002 primarily due to the continued drought conditions
and economic circumstances in the Rocky Mountain Region combined with the
wet spring weather conditions experienced in the 2nd quarter of fiscal 2003
which delayed work by irrigation contractors particularly in the months of
March and April.

Cost of Sales decreased by $1,981,000 for the six months ended May 31, 2003
as compared to May 31, 2002 primarily as a result of the relative decrease
in sales during first six months of fiscal 2003 as compared to the first
six months of fiscal 2002.

Gross profit was 33.1% during the six months ended May 31, 2003 as compared
to 31.3% during the six months ended May 31, 2002 an increase of 1.8%. The
increase was primarily due to the change in the product mix of items sold
which lines of product were less price competitive.

Selling, general and administrative expenses decreased by $9,000 during
the six months ended May 31, 2003 as compared to May 31, 2002.



Other expenses decreased by $25,000 during the six months ended May 31,
2003 as compared to May 31, 2002 primarily due to the reduction of interest
expense. The decrease was attributable to the lower average line-of-credit
balance of $1,973,000 for the first six months of fiscal 2003 as compared
to $2,103,000 for the first six months of fiscal 2002 and the reduction of
interest payments in long-term obligations of $19,000.

Net income decreased $346,000 for the six months ended May 31, 2003 as
compared to the six months ended May 31, 2002 primarily due to the decrease
in gross profit of $582,000 and a decrease in income tax expense of
$202,000.


Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

The Company is exposed to market risk through interest rates related to its
investment of current cash and cash equivalents. These funds are generally
highly liquid with short-term maturities, and the related market risk is
not considered material. The Company's note payable to bank has a variable
interest rate. A 10% increase in short-term interest rates on the note
payable to bank of $1,973,000 would increase the Company's yearly interest
expense by approximately $12,000, assuming borrowed amounts remain
outstanding at current levels. The Company's management believes that
fluctuation in interest rates
in the near term will not materially affect the Company's consolidated
operating results, financial position or cash flow.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

The Company maintains a set of disclosure controls and procedures that are
designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the reports
filed by the Company under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended
is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods
specified in the SEC's rules and forms. As of the end of the quarterly
period covered by this report, the Company carried out an evaluation,
under the supervision of the President and Chief Financial Officer, of the
effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and
procedures pursuant to Rule 13a-14 of the Exchange Act. Based on that
evaluation, the President and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our
disclosure controls and procedures are effective.

There have been no significant changes in the Company's internal controls
or other factors that could significantly affect those controls subsequent
to the date of their evaluation, including any corrective actions with
regard to significant deficiencies and material weaknesses.
