NOTE 1 - BASIS OF PRESENTATION
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial state-
ments have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted ac-
counting principles for interim financial information and with the
instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accord
ingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes
required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete
financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments
(consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a
fair presentation have been included. Operating results for the nine
month period ended August 31, 2000 are not necessarily indicative of
the results that may be expected for the year ended November 30,
2000. For further information, refer to the consolidated financial
statements and footnotes thereto included in the Company's annual
report on Form 10-K for the year ended November 30, 1999.
NOTE 2 - ORGANIZATION AND DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS
CCA Industries, Inc. ("CCA") was incorporated in the State of Delaware
on March 25, 1983.
CCA manufactures and distributes health and beauty aid products.
CCA has several wholly-owned subsidiaries (CCA Cosmetics, Inc., CCA
Labs, Inc., Berdell, Inc., Nutra Care Corporation, and CCA Online
Industries, Inc.), all of which are currently inactive.
In March of 1998 CCA acquired 80% of the newly organized Fragrance
Corporation of America, Ltd. which manufactures and distributes perfume
products. In 1999, the Company adopted a formal plan to discontinue the
operations of the subsidiary.
NOTE 3 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Principles of Consolidation:
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of CCA and
its wholly-owned subsidiaries (collectively the "Company"). All
significant inter-company accounts and transactions have been elimi
nated.

CCA INDUSTRIES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

(UNAUDITED)
NOTE 3 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)
Use of Estimates:
The consolidated financial statements include the use of estimates,
which management believes are reasonable. The process of preparing
financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting
principles requires the use of estimates and assumptions regarding
certain types of assets, liabilities, revenues, and expenses. Such
estimates primarily relate to unsettled transactions and events as of
the date of the financial statements. Accordingly, upon settlement,
actual results may differ from estimated amounts.
Short-Term Investments and Marketable Securities:
Short-term investments and marketable securities consist of corporate
and government bonds and equity securities. The Company has classified
its investments as Available-for-Sale securities. Accordingly, such
investments are reported at fair market value, with the resultant
unrealized gains and losses reported as a separate component of
shareholders' equity.
Statements of Cash Flows Disclosure:
For purposes of the statement of cash flows, the Company considers all
highly liquid instruments purchased with an original maturity of less
than three months to be cash equivalents.
During fiscal 1999, two officers/shareholders exercised in the aggregate
100,000 options in exchange for 25,000 shares of previously issued
common stock. The common shares were put into treasury and were
subsequently cancelled.
Inventories:
Inventories are stated at the lower of cost (first-in, first-out) or
market.
Product returns are recorded in inventory when they are received at the
lower of their original cost or market, as appropriate. Obsolete
inventory is written off and its value is removed from inventory at the
time its obsolescence is determined.

NOTE 3 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)
Property and Equipment and Depreciation and Amortization
Property and equipment are stated at cost. The Company charges to
expense repairs and maintenance items, while major improvements and
betterments are capitalized. When the Company sells or otherwise
disposes of property and equipment items, the cost and related
accumulated depreciation are removed from the respective accounts and
any gain or loss is included in earnings.
Depreciation and amortization are provided on the straight-line method
over the following estimated useful lives or lease terms of the assets:
Machinery and equipment 7-10 Years
Furniture and fixtures 5-7 Years
Tools, dies and masters 2-7 Years
Transportation equipment 7 Years
Leasehold improvements 7-10 Years or life
of lease, whichever is
shorter
Intangible Assets:
Intangible assets are stated at cost. Patents and trademarks are
amortized on the straight-line method over a period of 17 years.
Goodwill represents the excess of the cost over the fair value of the
net assets acquired and is amortized over 60 months.
Financial Instruments:
The carrying value of assets and liabilities considered financial
instruments approximate their respective fair value.
Income Taxes:
Income tax expense includes federal and state taxes currently payable
and deferred taxes arising from temporary differences between income
for financial reporting and income tax purposes.
Tax Credits:
Tax credits, when present, are accounted for using the flow-through
method as a reduction of income taxes in the years utilized.

NOTE 3 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)
Earnings Per Common Share:
The Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS")
No. 128, "Earnings Per Share" in 1998. Basic earnings per share is
calculated using the average number of shares of common stock outstand
ing during the year. Diluted earnings per share is computed on the
basis of the average number of common shares outstanding plus the effect
of outstanding stock options using the "treasury stock method" and
convertible debentures using the "if-converted" method. Common stock
equivalents consist of stock options.
Revenue Recognition:
The Company recognizes sales at the time delivery occurs. Although no
legal right of return exists between the customer and the Company, it
is an industry-wide practice to accept returns from customers. The
Company, therefore, records a reserve for returns equal to its gross
profit on its historical percentage of returns on its last five months
sales.
Comprehensive Income:
The Company adopted SFAS #130, Comprehensive Income, which considers the
Company's financial performance in that it includes all changes in
equity during the period from transactions and events from non-owner
sources.
Reclassifications
Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform to the 2000
presentation and the restatement for discontinued operations.
NOTE 4 - INVENTORIES
The components of inventory consist of the following:
August 31, November 30,

NOTE 7 - DEFERRED ADVERTISING
In accordance with APB 28 Interim Financial Reporting the Company
expenses its advertising and related costs proportionately over the
interim periods based on its total expected costs per its various
advertising programs. Consequently a deferral of $1,286,557 is
accordingly reflected in the balance sheet for the interim period.
This deferral is the result of the Company's $6,000,000 media budget
for the year which contemplates lower spending in the 4th quarter than
in the other three quarters; as well as the Company's Co-op advertising
commitments which also anticipates a lower expenditure in the 4th
quarter.
The table below sets forth the calculation:

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF RESULTS
OF OPERATIONS AND FINANCIAL CONDITION
(UNAUDITED)
For the three month period ending August 31, 2000, the Company had
revenues and income from continuing operations of $9,992,012 and $262,479,
respectively. The Company had a provision for income taxes of $123,710
and incurred a loss from discontinued operations of its fragrance
subsidiary of $79,735. Net income was $59,034. For the prior year
period, the Company had revenues from continuing operations of $8,734,574,
income before taxes of $134,248, a provision for taxes of $38,697 and a
write-off of $1,252,768 from discontinued operations. The Company had a
net loss of $1,157,167.
For the nine month period ending August 31, 2000, the Company had
revenues and income from continuing operations of $30,630,611 and
$1,143,157, respectively; a provision for income taxes of $432,141 and
income of $711,016. The Company incurred a loss of $107,298 from
discontinued operations resulting in net income for the nine month period
of $603,718.
For the nine month period in the prior year, the Company had revenues
of $28,585,680 from continuing operations, income of $902,666, a provision
for income taxes of $290,648 and income of $612,018. The Company had a
loss of $1,451,509 from discontinued operations resulting in a net loss
of $839,491.
Net sales for the nine month period ended August 31, 2000 were up
$2,012,601 over the prior year's period. Sales returns ran approximately
9% of gross sales, up slightly from 8% during the prior year's period.
Gross margins of 62.5% were up from 61% for the prior year.
Advertising, cooperative and promotional allowance expenditures
increased during the nine month period from $6,636,603 to $7,165,084.
Advertising expenditures were 23.5% of sales for the nine months ended
August 31, 2000 as compared with 23.4% for the period ended August 31,
1999. As part of the registrant's business it is necessary to enter into
co-operative advertising agreements and other promotional activities with
its accounts, especially upon the introduction of a new product. Both co-
op advertising and promotions have a material effect on the Company's
operations. If the advertising and promotions are successful, revenues
will be increased accordingly. Should the co-op and promotions not be
successful, it will have a negative impact on the Company's promotional
cost per sale, and have a negative effect on income. The Company attempts
to anticipate its advertising and promotional commitments as a percent of
gross sales in order to attempt to control its effect on its net income.
In accordance with APB 28 Interim Financial Reporting the Company expenses
its advertising and related costs proportionately over the interim periods
based on its total expected costs per its various advertising programs.
Consequently, a deferral of $1,286,557 is accordingly reflected in the
balance sheet for the interim period, as compared to $1,551,113 at August
31, 1999. This deferral is the result of the Company's $6.0 million media
budget for the year which contemplates lower spending in the 4th quarter
than in the other three quarters; as well as the Company's co-op
advertising commitments which also anticipates lower expenditures in the
4th quarter. Specifically, the Company spent approximately $5.5

(UNAUDITED)
million in the nine months on media advertising and, therefore, expensed
$4.5 million and deferred $1.0 million as of August 31,2000. Similarly,
as of August 31, 1999, the Company's co-op advertising commitments for
the year ended November 30, 2000 are anticipated to be approximately $3.1
million of which approximately $2.62 million was spent in the first nine
months resulting in an expense of $2.33 million and a deferral of
approximately $.29 million as of August 31, 2000.
Comparatively as of August 31, 1999, the Company had anticipated
media advertising expense in fiscal year 1999 of $5.3 million and spent
approximately $4.71 million in the first nine months resulting in a
deferral of approximately $.73 million.
Selling, general and administrative expenses ("SG&A") increased
compared to the prior year. The increase to $10,309,788 from $9,509,870
was due mostly to increased freight costs of approximately $400,000, and
the increase in commissions, recruiting and royalties.
For the three month period ended August 31, 2000, net sales were
$9,905,804 as compared to $8,631,951 for August 31, 1999. Income for the
quarter before taxes increased to $262,479 from $134,298. Gross margins
of approximately 64.7% for the three months ended August 31, 2000 were up
from 59.4% in 1999. This was due mainly to the better product mix
achieved in 2000. Advertising, cooperative and promotional allowance
expense during the quarter increased to $2,478,780 from $1,851,391.
Advertising expenses were 25% of sales for the quarter in 2000 as compared
to 21.45% in 1999. Selling, general and administrative expenses were
approximately 36.3% in the current quarter as compared to 37% in 1999.
Research and development expenses for the three and nine months were
less than the prior year's period due to the economies of utilizing the
services of more in-house staff rather than outside consultants.
Bad debt expense for the periods increased due to the increase in
reserves on the increasing accounts receivable. Actual write-offs were
approximately $40,000 in 1999 as compared to $42,000 in 1998. The
Company's interest expense of $97,447 was less than the prior year's
amount of $108,626 (all of which was attributable to its discontinued
operations).
The Company's sales were primarily to drugstore chains, food chains
and mass merchandisers.
The Company's financial position as at August 31, 2000 consists of
current assets of $19,092,783 and current liabilities of $5,991,971. The
Company's cash position decreased mostly due to its operations
($1,335,000), but also due to the acquisition of $328,000 of fixed assets,
and the net purchase of $286,000 of marketable securities. The Company
borrowed an additional $1,200,000 on its line to offset some of the drain
on its cash. During the nine month period ended August 31, 2000,
shareholders' equity increased from $15,166,082 at November 30, 1999 to
$15,188,516 at August 31, 2000. This was primarily due to the difference
between the net gain for the period ($603,718) and the subordinated
debentures issued ($556,656) to repurchase 278,328 shares of the Company's
stock.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF RESULTS
OF OPERATIONS AND FINANCIAL CONDITION
(UNAUDITED)
During the nine months ended August 31, 1999, the Company used
$513,000 in operations, $454,000 to pay for costs incurred relating to the
acquisition of Shiara Inc's assets in excess of their fair market value,
and $118,000 to purchase new fixed assets; and generated $350,000 from new
borrowings and approximately $1,037,000 from the net liquidations of
securities. These factors resulted in a net increase in the Company's
cash of about $294,000.
