PART I

ITEM 1. BUSINESS

OVERVIEW

The Singing Machine Company, Inc., doing business as SMC Global, (“Company,” “Singing Machine,” “we,” “us,” or, “our”) is engaged in the development, production, marketing and distribution of consumer karaoke audio equipment, accessories, music, musical instruments, and licensed youth electronic products. We contract for the manufacturing of all our electronic equipment products with factories located in China. We have also collaborated with a music download service provider for an expanded library of musical selections. This collaboration provides the Company with not only an expanded library of music for sale and distribution; it opens up the Company’s music sales to customers who purchase our competitors’ karaoke machines as well. Further, the capabilities of the Company’s new download music distribution system includes the ability to stream selections from this expanded content library, creating the opportunity to open new revenue sources through the sale of subscriptions. The Company is also in the process of expanding its web presence by creating a hosted cyber-community where customers can upload their individual karaoke performances to share.

We were incorporated in California in 1982. We originally sold our products exclusively to professional and semi-professional singers. In 1988, we began marketing karaoke equipment for home use. We believe we are the first company to introduce the home karaoke products to the United States (“U.S.”). In May 1994, we merged into a wholly-owned subsidiary incorporated in Delaware with the same name. As a result of that merger the Delaware corporation became the successor to the business and operations of the California corporation and retained the name The Singing Machine Company, Inc. (“SMC”). In December 2005, we formed a wholly-owned subsidiary SMC (Comercial Offshore De Macau) Limitada in Macau, China (“SMC Macau” or “Macau subsidiary”), to provide sales, financing, shipping, engineering and sourcing support for Singing Machine and Subsidiaries. Our Macau subsidiary has been approved to operate its business in Macau as Macau Offshore Company (MOC) and is exempt for the Macau corporate income tax. In February 2008, we formed a wholly-owned subsidiary SMC Logistics, Inc. (“SMC-L”), a California corporation, to manage the U.S. domestic logistics and fulfillment warehouse servicing for the Company and in April 2008 a wholly-owned subsidiary, SMC Music, Inc. (“SMC-M”) to contract with third party music providers.

In November 1994, we closed an initial public offering of 2,070,000 shares of our common stock and 2,070,000 warrants. In April 1997, we filed a voluntary petition for relief under Chapter 11 of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code. On March 17, 1998, our plan of reorganization was approved by the U.S. Bankruptcy Court. On June 10, 1998, our plan of reorganization had been fully implemented and we emerged from the reorganization proceeding. Since then, we have developed the karaoke products featuring on-screen lyric, built-in camera and digital key control functions.

We had been listed on the NYSE Amex Equities (“AMEX”) (formerly known as the American Stock Exchange) since March 8, 2001, however on June 22, 2009 we received notice from AMEX that it had determined that our common stock would be delisted and no longer traded on the exchange. Our board of directors decided that it would not in the best interest of the Company and its shareholders to expend the financial resources necessary to appeal the decision and continue to be listed on AMEX. The Company believes that AMEX’s insistence that the Company perform a reverse stock split was subjective and did not consider the current economic turmoil in the global markets. Management also believes performing a reverse stock split would have significantly harmed the Company and diminished shareholder’s value. The Company elected not to appeal the decision and gained admission to the Over the Counter Bulletin Board (“OTCBB”) for the following reasons:

(a)	Due to being listed on AMEX, the Company had incurred substantial annual listing fees, additional listing application fees, and professional service fees which can approach six figures each year;
(b)	The OTCBB requires no annual listing fees or additional listing application fees;
(c)	Management believes that performing a reverse stock split as requested by AMEX was not in the best interest of the Company or its shareholders; and
(d)	Management believes it will have closer, more personal contact with its market makers and shareholders on the OTCBB.

On July 6, 2009, the Company’s stock was suspended from trading on AMEX. The Company immediately applied for admission to the Over the Counter Bulletin Board (“OTCBB”) and subsequently began trading on the OTCBB on July 7, 2009 under the symbol “SMDM”.

Our principal executive offices are located in Fort Lauderdale, Florida.

We raised approximately $6 million in equity investments from investors in Hong Kong from February 2006 to June 2007. The investors include two major suppliers: koncepts International Limited (part of the Starlight International Holdings Ltd Group) and Arts Electronics Co., Ltd. We believe the investments from these major suppliers underscore their support to the Company.

koncepts International Limited (“koncepts”) is a major stockholder of the Company, owning approximately 49% of our shares of common stock outstanding on a fully diluted basis as of June 11, 2013. koncepts is an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of Starlight International Holdings Limited (“Starlight International”), a company whose principal activities include designing, manufacturing and selling electronic products through its various subsidiaries. Starlight International’s products include television sets, consumer karaoke audio equipment and DVD products. We do business with a number of entities that are indirectly wholly-owned or majority owned subsidiaries of Starlight International, including Starlight Marketing Limited, Cosmo Communications Corporation, Starlite Consumer Electronics (USA), Inc., and Starlight International Holdings Limited, among others (Starlight International and its subsidiaries collectively referred to herein as the “Starlight Group”). In total, the Starlight Group owns approximately 52% of our shares of stock outstanding.

GROWTH STRATEGY

The overall objective of the Singing Machine is to create an efficient platform for the development, manufacture, and world-wide marketing and distribution of home entertainment based consumer electronics. The Company will also seek new revenue opportunities through hardware-based music content delivery and the creation of a community based entertainment platform. We also intend to leverage our position as an affiliate of the Starlight Group to capitalize on synergies which exist therein and to exercise our knowledge of the electronics business to grow revenue. The Company intends to leverage our valuable customer base and strong relationships with our factories to achieve our organic and external growth initiatives.

Organic Growth Strategy

We intend to pursue various initiatives to execute our organic growth strategy which is designed to enhance our market presence, expand our customer base and be an industry leader in new product development. Key elements of our organic growth strategy include:

Business Focus and Public Perceptions . Historically karaoke has been our core business. The Singing Machine brand is widely recognized as a leader in karaoke and consequently we hold a dominant market share in the business. While consistently a market leader, the Company has determined that it needs to diversify and expand its core focus in order to grow its business. The Company has therefore refocused its self-perception and is determined to build on its success by defining ourselves as a provider of quality in home entertainment – not just home karaoke. Critical to this strategy is a move to add value to our core business of karaoke machine sales. We believe that by tightly integrating our karaoke machine products with content such as Electronic Download, Streaming Media, Community Performance Hosting, and by creating quality, wholesome, home entertainment for the entire family we will not only sell more products, we will find new sources of revenue. Using our existing key relationships with our customers and factories, and by adding new relationships with key content providers, we believe we can achieve more top-line growth by utilizing these relationships to design and distribute a more diversified line of consumer electronics. This should allow our Company to reduce our dependency on a single karaoke product and minimize our exposure to the volatility of the karaoke market in general.

Develop new features for karaoke equipment . Hardware and software technology advancement in the karaoke market has been stagnant since early 2000. We believe that in order to revitalize the karaoke market, we need to incorporate new features and technologies that take advantage of our online karaoke music download store. We are currently developing new karaoke products which will host a number of unique features which we believe will diversify us from the rest of the industry. We are currently developing a new feature set for our karaoke machines that will introduce first-to-market karaoke machines that can read and play digital karaoke files in MP3+G format that interface easily with our download store. We are also introducing a new concept to the traditional microphone which will empower the singer to control all karaoke features at their fingertips. Through a partnership with Montreal based, boutique design firm, Pearl Studios, we are also working on future projects which involve new, proprietary display technologies and features which should expand the horizon of home karaoke. We have been working with Pearl Studios and other technology partners with strong research and development skills to bring these new concepts and devices to life. We believe the development of new products will not only reinforce our leadership position in the karaoke market, but will lead to increased sales and other opportunities which will remake the Company into a purveyor of quality in-home entertainment instead of simply being a supplier of single sale electronic devices.

Focus on international growth . We believe that we have the most karaoke product offerings than any of our competitors in the karaoke market. We will aggressively pursue international business outside of North America to capture a vastly untapped market for home karaoke. Through economies of scale and financed on a direct import basis, we believe this is one of the major areas in which we can substantially increase our revenues.

Develop karaoke hardware that interfaces with our Music Download Store . Downloading music is one of the fastest growing areas in the music industry. We believe that the future of karaoke music distribution is through legal mediums of internet download sites (e.g. iTunes, Amazon, etc). Since karaoke music only accounts for a small percentage of total music business, retailers usually only offer a limited selection of karaoke products. Thus, it is difficult for customers to find karaoke music in retail outlets, especially for the songs they enjoy. In addition to maintaining a physical CD distribution business, we launched a music download project three years ago to capitalize on this new distribution model. The benefits to the Company are multifaceted including the opportunity to: offer downloadable music which means less physical inventory for the Company and our retail customers to carry; reduce financial return risk since a downloaded piece of karaoke music is not returnable; make available increased marketing opportunities by offering downloads for those who sign up and provide their contact information enabling the Company to create future marketing and advertising campaigns; create an opportunity to sell our karaoke music to not only our customers but also to owners of our competitors’ machines (new and old); create cross-promotions with our retail-customers by giving away music downloads to purchasers of karaoke machines as an incentive to sell more machines.

Exploit Synergies from Within the Starlight Group . We are always looking to increase profitability or revenue through synergy recognition. The Company has recognized an opportunity to offer our existing warehouse and logistics services to the Starlight Group for a fee. The fee arrangement represents a significant expense reimbursement opportunity for the Company. Not only does the Starlight Group get a partner for its domestic U.S. warehousing and logistics, we get service fees which defray the cost of our own historical warehouse expense. We are currently exploring other synergies including customer representative relationships, customer service functions and accounting services. These opportunities may lead to new top line revenue growth and enhanced profitability.

External Growth Strategy

While our historical growth has been solely organic, we intend to pursue a growth strategy which contemplates a balanced combination of organic growth and external growth. Our external growth strategy will be characterized by potential strategic acquisition of synergistic electronic or technology companies. Accordingly, we intend to leverage the skill sets of our management team and board of directors to actively evaluate potential target companies and consummate merger and acquisition transactions as an important component of our business model.

Acquisition Environment . Most of the major retailers in the United States prefer to buy the products from the factories directly. This has changed the traditional distribution model by eliminating the importers and brokers. In addition, the cost of products has seen a dramatic increase due to spiraling prices of petroleum based products, increasing labor costs in key manufacturing regions such as China, and the currency arbitrage risks with the decline in the value of the U.S. dollar. In light of these developments, product costs have spiked while retail prices have been cut dramatically. We believe that the small to medium size companies who primarily depended on a constant significant profit margin will not be able to compete in this business environment. At the same time, capital funding is limited in the electronics market. Public and private equity are generally difficult to access, especially for those companies with inadequate management resources, unproven management and a lack of market leadership. As a member of the Starlight Group, we have access to product development and engineering resources that our competitors do not have. We also have access to financing for operations and product purchases at rates which are not otherwise available to our competitors however, for fiscal year 2014 we anticipate access to capital funding will be limited.

Opportunity for the Company . Based on preliminary discussions with potential targets, we believe that an acquisition will be attractive to the potential targets because of the following:

	⋅	The existence of a diversified management team and the seasoned board of directors, who have significant experience operating businesses in the United States and working with factories in China;
	⋅	What we believe to be an efficient business model, which is characterized by a rapid product development cycle, low operational costs and high inventory turn over;
	⋅	The existence of strong relationships with key factories in China. One of our major stockholders is a major factory in China which provides us with lower production costs and vendor financing; and
	⋅	A visible exit strategy that offers cash or publicly traded securities.

Acquisition Parameters . We intend to acquire companies which themselves have a potential for significant growth or which can add technology to our Company so that we can grow. These companies are limited by their resources and management’s abilities. We will focus on companies that have exhibited historical profitability or those that can combine with our Company to become profitable. We look for companies with strong brand name recognition that may bring additional revenues to our Company.

PRODUCT LINES

We currently have two different product lines which consist in total of over 50 different models. The product lines consist of the following:

	⋅	Karaoke Machines that incorporate such features as CD plus graphics player, sound enhancement, echo, tape record/playback features, and multiple inputs and outputs for connection to compact disc players, built-in camera, and home theater systems. Our machines sell at retail prices ranging from $30 for basic units to $200 for semi-professional units.
	⋅	Musical Instruments which we sell under the “Sound X” ™ and “Sound X Kids” ™ brand. These include semi-professional digital drum sets and keyboards along with youth musical instruments targeted for children to “tween” age demographics. The retail price range is from $19 to $299.

MARKETING, SALES

Our karaoke machines and music are sold nationally and internationally to a broad spectrum of customers, primarily through mass merchandisers, department stores, direct mail catalogs and showrooms, music and record stores, national chains, specialty stores and warehouse clubs. Our product lines are currently sold by the following retailers, among others: Costco, Target, Toys R’ Us, Kohl's, Wal-Mart.com and Amazon.com. Our sales strategy includes offering domestic sales as well as direct import sales made direct to the customer.

Domestic Sales . Our strategy of selling products from a domestic warehouse enables us to provide timely delivery and serve as a domestic supplier of imported goods. We purchase karaoke machines overseas from certain factories in China for our own account, and warehouse the products in leased facilities in California. We are responsible for costs of shipping, insurance, customs clearance, duties, storage and distribution related to such products and, therefore, domestic sales command higher sales prices than direct sales. We generally sell from our own inventory in less than container-sized lots.

Direct Sales. We ship some hardware products sold by us directly to customers from China through SMC Macau. Sales made through our subsidiary are completed by either delivering products to the customers' common carriers at the shipping point or by shipping the products to the customers' distribution centers, warehouses, or stores. Direct sales are made in larger quantities (generally container sized lots) to customers' world wide, which pay SMC Macau pursuant to their own international, irrevocable, transferable letters of credit or on open account.

In fiscal 2013, approximately 36% of sales revenues were from direct sales and 64% of revenues were domestic sales. Our sales within the U.S. are primarily made by our in-house sales team and our independent sales representatives. Our independent sales representatives are paid a commission based upon sales made in their respective territories. We utilize some of our outside independent sales representatives to help us provide service to our mass merchandisers and other retailers. The sales representative agreements are generally one (1) year agreements, which automatically renew on an annual basis, unless terminated by either party on 30 days' notice. Our international sales are primarily made by our in-house sales representatives and our independent distributors.

As a percentage of total revenues, our net sales in the aggregate to our five largest customers during the fiscal years ended March 31, 2013, 2012, and 2011, were approximately 66%, 70%, and 74%, respectively. In fiscal 2013, the top three major customers accounted for 23%, 21% and 13% of our net revenues. Although we have long-established relationships with all of our customers, we do not have quantity contractual arrangements with any of them. A decrease in business or a loss of any of our major customers could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations and financial condition.

We also market our products at various national and international trade shows each year. We regularly attend the following trade shows and conventions: the Consumer Electronics Show which takes place each January in Las Vegas; the American Toy Fair which occurs each February in New York and the Hong Kong Electronics Show stages each October in Hong Kong.

We believe the Singing Machine brand is one of the most widely recognized karaoke brands in the United States and Europe. While we continue to heavily focus on our core karaoke business, we are expanding our business into other product categories. Our strong product procurement team in Hong Kong and China combined with our experienced sales and service team in North America enables us to compete not only in the karaoke market but also in other markets, such as musical instruments, licensed toy products and other consumer electronics products.

RETURNS

Returns of electronic hardware and music products by our customers generally occur after approval involving quality defects, damaged goods or goods shipped in error. Our policy is to give credit to our customers for the returns in conjunction with the receipt of new replacement purchase orders. Our total returns represented 8.8%, 8.7%, and 8.4% of our net sales in fiscal 2013, 2012, and 2011, respectively.

DISTRIBUTION

We distribute hardware products to retailers and wholesale distributors through two methods: shipment of products from inventory held at our warehouse facilities in California (domestic sales), shipments directly through our Macau subsidiary, and manufacturers in China of products (direct sales). Domestic sales are made to customers located throughout North America from inventories maintained at our warehouse facilities in California. In the fiscal year ended March 31, 2013, approximately 64% of our sales were sales from our domestic warehouses ("Domestic Sales") and 36% were sales shipped directly from China ("Direct Sales").

MANUFACTURING AND PRODUCTION

Our karaoke machines are manufactured and assembled by third parties pursuant to design specifications provided by us. Currently, we have ongoing relationships with six factories, located in Guangdong Province of the People's Republic of China, which assemble our karaoke machines. During fiscal 2014, we anticipate that 99% of our karaoke products will be produced by these factories, who have verbally agreed to extend financing to us. We believe that the manufacturing capacity of our factories is adequate to meet the demands for our products in fiscal year 2014. However, if our primary factory in China was prevented from manufacturing and delivering our karaoke products, our operation would be severely disrupted until alternative sources of supply are located (See "Risk Factors - We are relying on one factory to manufacture and produce the majority of our karaoke machines for fiscal 2014" on page 9). In manufacturing our karaoke related products, these factories use molds and certain other tooling, most of which are owned by us. Our products contain electronic components manufactured by other companies such as Panasonic, Sanyo, Toshiba, and Sony. Our manufacturers purchase and install these electronic components in our karaoke machines and related products. The finished products are packaged and labeled under our trademark, The Singing Machine ^(R) and private labels.

While our equipment manufacturers purchase our supplies from a small number of large suppliers, all of the electronic components and raw materials used by us are available from several sources of supply. We depend on limited suppliers for some key components and the loss of any single supplier may have a material long-term adverse effect on our business, operations, or financial condition. To ensure that our high standards of product quality are met and that factories consistently meet our shipping schedules, we utilize Hong Kong and China based employees as our representatives. These employees include product inspectors who are knowledgeable about product specifications and work closely with the factories to verify that such specifications are met. Additionally, key personnel frequently visit our factories for quality assurance and to support good working relationships.

All of the electronic equipment sold by us is warranted to the end user against manufacturing defects for a period of ninety (90) days for labor and parts. All music sold is similarly warranted for a period of 30 days. During the fiscal years ended March 31, 2013, 2012, and 2011, warranty claims have not been material to our results of operations.

COMPETITION

Our business is highly competitive. Our major competitors for karaoke machines and related products are GPX, Vaughn, Karaoke USA and other consumer electronics companies. We believe that competition for karaoke machines is based primarily on price, product features, reputation, delivery times, and customer support. We believe that our brand name is well recognized in the industry and helps us compete in the karaoke machine category. Our primary competitors for producing karaoke music are Pocket Songs, UAV, Sybersound and Sound Choice. We believe that competition for karaoke music is based primarily on popularity of song titles, price, reputation, and delivery times. As far as the musical instrument market, our key competitors include Yamaha, ION, and others.

In addition, we compete with all other existing forms of entertainment including, but not limited to, motion pictures, video arcade games, home video games, theme parks, nightclubs, television and prerecorded tapes, CD's, and DVD’s. Our financial position depends, among other things, on our ability to keep pace with changes and developments in the entertainment industry and to respond to the requirements of our customers. Many of our competitors have significantly greater financial, marketing, and operating resources and broader product lines than we do.

TRADEMARKS AND PATENTS

We have obtained registered trademarks for The Singing Machine name and the logo in the U.S. and in the European Union. We have also filed trademark applications in Australia and Hong Kong. We also filed various trademarks for our products. In 2003 we also obtained two U.S. design patents for karaoke machines, patent numbers US D505,960 S and US D524,325 S which expire in 2017.

Our trademarks are a significant asset because they provide product recognition. We believe that our intellectual property is significantly protected, but there are no assurances that these rights can be successfully asserted in the future or will not be invalidated, circumvented or challenged.

COPYRIGHTS AND LICENSES

We hold federal and international copyrights to substantially all of the music productions comprising our song library. However, since each of those productions is a re-recording of an original work by others, we are subject to contractual and/or statutory licensing agreements with the publishers who own or control the copyrights of the underlying musical compositions. We are obligated to pay royalties to the holders of such copyrights for the original music and lyrics of all of the songs in our library that have not passed into the public domain. We are currently a party to many different written copyright license agreements.

The majority of the songs in our song library are subject to written copyright license agreements, often times referred to as synchronization licenses. Our written licensing agreements for music provide for royalties to be paid on each song. The actual rate of royalty is negotiable, but typically ranges from $0.09 to $0.15 per song on each CD that is sold. Similarly, the terms of the licenses vary, but typically range from 2 to 5 years. Our written licenses typically provide for quarterly royalty payments, although some publishers require reporting on a semi-annual basis.

GOVERNMENT REGULATION

Our karaoke machines must meet the safety standards imposed in various national, state, local, and provincial jurisdictions. Our karaoke machines sold in the U.S. are designed, manufactured and tested to meet the safety standards of Underwriters Laboratories, Inc. ("ULE") or Electronic Testing Laboratories ("ETL"). In Europe and other foreign countries, our products are manufactured to meet the Consumer Electronics (“CE”) marking requirements. CE marking is a mandatory European product marking and certification system for certain designated products. When affixed to a product and product packaging, CE marking indicates that a particular product complies with all applicable European product safety, health and environmental requirements within the CE marking system. Products complying with CE marking are now accepted to be safe in 28 European countries. However, ULE or ETL certification does not mean that a product complies with the product safety, health and environmental regulations contained in all fifty states in the United States. Therefore, we maintain a quality control program designed to ensure compliance with all applicable U.S. and federal laws pertaining to the sale of our products. Our production and sale of music products is subject to federal copyright laws.

The manufacturing operations of our foreign suppliers in China are subject to foreign regulation. China has permanent "normal trade relations" ("NTR") status under U.S. tariff laws, which provides a favorable category of U.S. import duties. China's NTR status became permanent on January 1, 2002. This substantially reduces the possibility of China losing its NTR status, which would result in increasing costs for us.

SEASONALITY AND SEASONAL FINANCING

Our business is highly seasonal, with consumers making a large percentage of karaoke purchases around the traditional holiday season in our second and third quarter ending September 30 and December 31. These seasonal purchasing patterns and requisite production lead times cause risk to our business associated with the underproduction or overproduction of products that do not match consumer demand. Retailers also attempt to manage their inventories more tightly, requiring that we ship products closer to the time that retailers expect to sell the products to consumers. These factors increase the risk that we may not be able to meet demand for certain products at peak demand times, or that our own inventory levels may be adversely affected by the need to pre-build products before orders are placed. As of March 31, 2013, we had inventory of $4.1 million (net of reserves totaling $503,000) compared to inventory of $4.0 million as of March 31, 2012 (net of reserves totaling $663,000).

Our financing of seasonal working capital during fiscal 2013 was from an Accounts Receivable Ledgered Line of Credit Facility (“line of credit”) with Crestmark Bank and vendor related-party extended accounts payable terms from our affiliate, Starlight International. The line of credit expires on October 12, 2014 and we anticipate Starlight International, will continue to provide extended payment terms to the Company through March 31, 2014.

During Fiscal 2014, we plan on financing our inventory purchases by borrowing on our line of credit, using credit lines that have been extended to us by the factories in China and extended accounts payable terms provided by our affiliate, Starlight International.

EMPLOYEES

As of May 17, 2013 we employed 23 people, of whom 23 are full-time employees. Two of our employees are located at SMC Macau’s offices and the remaining employees are based in the U.S. Our employees include 3 executive officers, 13 engaged in warehousing and administrative logistics/technical support and 7 in accounting, marketing, sales and administrative functions.

ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS

Set forth below and elsewhere in this Annual Report on Form 10-K and in the other documents we file with the SEC are risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from the results contemplated by the forward looking statements contained in this Annual Report.

RISKS ASSOCIATED WITH OUR BUSINESS

WE HAVE ENTERED INTO AN AGREEMENT WITH OUR AFFILIATES, STARLITE CONSUMER ELECTRONICS (USA), INC.,COSMO COMMUNICATIONS CORPORATION, AND STARLIGHT ELECTRONICS USA, INC. TO MANAGE THEIR LOGISTICS AND FULFILLMENT SERVICES IN THE UNITED STATES. IF WE ARE UNABLE TO PERFORM UNDER THIS AGREEMENT, IT COULD NEGATIVELY IMPACT OUR REVENUES AND CASH FLOW.

On July 1, 2012 we entered into a services agreement to receive orders, warehouse, and ship all of the Starlight Group’s U.S. domestic goods. The value of this contract is approximately $435,000 per year. If we are unable to perform the duties under this contract or successfully renew it for fiscal year 2014, it could negatively impact our revenue and cash flow.

THE MUSIC INDUSTRY HAS BEEN EXPERIENCING CONTINUING DECLINE OF COMPACT DISC (CD) SALES. OUR KARAOKE CD SALES COULD DECLINE FURTHER IN THE FUTURE.

Due to the expansion of the music download business, the sales of Compact Discs (CD) have been declining in recent years. Our karaoke CD sales have been declining since year 2004 and may continue to decline in the future. Music revenue accounts for less than 1% of our total revenues.

A SMALL NUMBER OF OUR CUSTOMERS ACCOUNT FOR A SUBSTANTIAL PORTION OF OUR REVENUES, AND THE LOSS OF ONE OR MORE OF THESE KEY CUSTOMERS COULD SIGNIFICANTLY REDUCE OUR REVENUES AND CASH FLOW.

We rely on a few large customers to provide a substantial portion of our revenues. As a percentage of total revenues, our net sales to our five largest customers during the years ended March 31, 2013 and 2012 were approximately 66% and 70%, respectively. We do not have long-term contractual arrangements with any of our customers and they can cancel their orders at any time prior to delivery. A substantial reduction in or termination of orders from any of our largest customers would decrease our revenues and cash flow.

WE ARE RELYING ON OUR AFFILIATE COMPANIES TO MANUFACTURE AND PRODUCE A SUBSTANTIAL PORTION OF OUR KARAOKE MACHINES FOR FISCAL 2014, AND IF THE RELATIONSHIP WITH THEIR FACTORY IS DAMAGED OR INJURED IN ANY WAY, IT WOULD REDUCE OUR REVENUES AND PROFITABILITY.

We have worked out an agreement with our main supplier in China to produce most of our karaoke machines for fiscal 2014. If the factory is unable to deliver our karaoke machines to us, our business will be adversely affected. Because our cash on hand is minimal, we are relying on revenues received from the sale of our ordered karaoke machines to provide cash flow for our operations. If we do not receive cash from these sales, we may not be able to continue our business operations.

WE ARE SUBJECT TO THE RISK THAT SOME OF OUR LARGE CUSTOMERS MAY RETURN KARAOKE PRODUCTS THAT THEY HAVE PURCHASED FROM US AND IF THIS HAPPENS, IT WOULD REDUCE OUR REVENUES AND PROFITABILITY.

In fiscal 2013 and 2012, a number of our customers and distributors returned karaoke products that they had purchased from us. Our customers returned goods valued at $3.4 million or 8.8% of our gross sales in fiscal 2013 and $2.2 million or 7.7% of our gross sales in fiscal 2012. The majority of the units returned are due to product defects. Our factories charge customary repair and freight costs which increase our expenses and reduce profitability. If any of our customers were to return karaoke products to us, it would reduce our revenues and profitability.

WE ARE SUBJECT TO PRESSURE FROM OUR CUSTOMERS RELATING TO PRICE REDUCTION AND FINANCIAL INCENTIVES AND IF WE ARE PRESSURED TO MAKE THESE CONCESSIONS TO OUR CUSTOMERS, IT WILL REDUCE OUR REVENUES AND PROFITABILITY.

Because there is intense competition in the karaoke industry, we are subject to pricing pressure from our customers. Many of our customers have demanded that we lower our prices or they will buy our competitor's products. If we do not meet our customer's demands for lower prices, we will not sell as many karaoke products. In the fiscal year ended March 31, 2013, our sales to customers in Europe were limited because of increased price competition and unfavorable economic conditions. We are also subject to pressure from our customers regarding certain financial incentives, such as return credits or large advertising or cooperative advertising allowances, which effectively reduce our profit. We gave advertising allowances of approximately $1,467,000 during fiscal 2013 and $937,000 during fiscal 2012. We have historically offered advertising allowances to our customers because it is standard practice in the retail industry.

WE EXPERIENCE DIFFICULTY FORECASTING THE DEMAND FOR OUR KARAOKE PRODUCTS AND IF WE DO NOT ACCURATELY FORECAST DEMAND, OUR REVENUES, NET INCOME AND CASH FLOW MAY BE AFFECTED.

Because of our reliance on manufacturers in China for our machine production, our production lead times range from one to four months. Therefore, we must commit to production in advance of customers orders. It is difficult to forecast customer demand because we do not have any scientific or quantitative method to predict this demand. Our forecasting is based on management's general expectations about customer demand, the general strength of the retail market and management's historical experiences. In past years we have overestimated demand for our products which led to excess inventory in some of our products and caused liquidity problems that adversely affected our revenues, net income and cash flow.

WE ARE SUBJECT TO THE COSTS AND RISKS OF CARRYING INVENTORY FOR OUR CUSTOMERS AND IF WE HAVE TOO MUCH INVENTORY, IT WILL AFFECT OUR REVENUES AND NET INCOME.

Many of our customers place orders with us several months prior to the holiday season, but they schedule delivery two or three weeks before the holiday season begins. As such, we are subject to the risks and costs of carrying inventory during the time period between the placement of the order and the delivery date, which reduces our cash flow. As of March 31, 2013 we had $4.1 million in inventory on hand. It is important that we sell this inventory during fiscal 2014, so we have sufficient cash flow for operations.

OUR BUSINESS IS SEASONAL AND THEREFORE OUR ANNUAL OPERATING RESULTS WILL DEPEND, IN LARGE PART, ON OUR SALES DURING THE RELATIVELY BRIEF HOLIDAY SEASON.

Sales of consumer electronics and toy products in the retail channel are highly seasonal, with a majority of retail sales occurring during the period from September through December in anticipation of the holiday season, which includes Christmas. A substantial majority of our sales occur during the second quarter ending September 30 and the third quarter ending December 31. Sales in our second and third quarter, combined, accounted for approximately 90.0%, 87.7%, and 79.8% of net sales in fiscal 2013, 2012, and 2011, respectively.

IF WE ARE UNABLE TO COMPETE IN THE KARAOKE PRODUCTS CATEGORY, OUR REVENUES AND NET PROFITABILITY WILL BE REDUCED.

Our major competitors for karaoke machines and related products are Memorex, Karaoke USA and GPX. We believe that competition for karaoke machines is based primarily on price, product features, reputation, delivery times, and customer support. Our primary competitors for producing karaoke music are Compass, Pocket Songs, Sybersound, UAV and Sound Choice. We believe that competition for karaoke music is based primarily on popularity of song titles, price, reputation, and delivery times. To the extent that we lower prices to attempt to enhance or retain market share, we may adversely impact our operating margins. Conversely, if we opt not to match competitor's price reductions we may lose market share, resulting in decreased volume and revenue. To the extent our leading competitors reduce prices on their karaoke machines and music, we must remain flexible to reduce our prices. If we are forced to reduce our prices, it will result in lower margins and reduced profitability. Because of intense competition in the karaoke industry in the United States during fiscal 2013, we expect that the intense pricing pressure in the low end of the market will continue in the karaoke market in the United States in fiscal 2014. In addition, we must compete with all the other existing forms of entertainment including, but not limited to: motion pictures, video arcade games, home video games, theme parks, nightclubs, television, prerecorded tapes, CD's, and DVD’s.

IF WE ARE UNABLE TO DEVELOP NEW KARAOKE PRODUCTS, OUR REVENUES MAY NOT CONTINUE TO GROW.

The karaoke industry is characterized by rapid technological change, frequent new product introductions and enhancements and ongoing customer demands for greater performance. In addition, the average selling price of any karaoke machine has historically decreased over its life, and we expect that trend to continue. As a result, our products may not be competitive if we fail to introduce new products or product enhancements that meet evolving customer demands. The development of new products is complex, and we may not be able to complete development in a timely manner. To introduce products on a timely basis, we must:

	⋅	accurately define and design new products to meet market demand;

	⋅	design features that continue to differentiate our products from those of our competitors;

	⋅	transition our products to new manufacturing process technologies;

	⋅	identify emerging technological trends in our target markets;

	⋅	anticipate changes in end-user preferences with respect to our customers' products;

	⋅	bring products to market on a timely basis at competitive prices; and

	⋅	respond effectively to technological changes or product announcements by others.

We believe that we will need to continue to enhance our karaoke machines and develop new machines to keep pace with competitive and technological developments and to achieve market acceptance for our products. At the same time, we need to identify and develop other products which may be different from karaoke machines.

OUR PRODUCTS ARE SHIPPED FROM CHINA AND ANY DISRUPTION OF SHIPPING COULD PREVENT OR DELAY OUR CUSTOMERS' RECEIPT OF INVENTORY.

We rely principally on four contract ocean carriers to ship virtually all of the products that we import to our warehouse facility in City of Industry, California. Retailers that take delivery of our products in China rely on a variety of carriers to import those products. Any disruptions in shipping, whether in California or China, caused by labor strikes, other labor disputes, terrorism, and international incidents may prevent or delay our customers' receipt of inventory. If our customers do not receive their inventory on a timely basis, they may cancel their orders or return products to us. Consequently, our revenues and net income would be reduced and our results of operations adversely affected.

OUR MANUFACTURING OPERATIONS ARE LOCATED IN THE PEOPLE'S REPUBLIC OF CHINA, SUBJECTING US TO RISKS COMMON IN INTERNATIONAL OPERATIONS. IF THERE IS ANY PROBLEM WITH THE MANUFACTURING PROCESS, OUR REVENUES AND NET PROFITABILITY MAY BE REDUCED.

We are using six factories in the People's Republic of China to manufacture the majority of our karaoke machines. These factories will be producing nearly all of our karaoke products in fiscal 2014. Our arrangements with these factories are subject to the risks of doing business abroad, such as import duties, trade restrictions, work stoppages, and foreign currency fluctuations, limitations on the repatriation of earnings and political instability, which could have an adverse impact on our business. Furthermore, we have limited control over the manufacturing processes. As a result, any difficulties encountered by our third-party manufacturers that result in product defects, production delays, cost overruns or the inability to fulfill orders on a timely basis could adversely affect our revenues, profitability and cash flow. Also, since we do not have written agreements with any of these factories, we are subject to additional uncertainty if the factories do not deliver products to us on a timely basis.

WE DEPEND ON THIRD PARTY SUPPLIERS FOR PARTS FOR OUR KARAOKE MACHINES AND RELATED PRODUCTS, AND IF WE CANNOT OBTAIN SUPPLIES AS NEEDED, OUR OPERATIONS WILL BE SEVERELY DAMAGED.

Our growth and ability to meet customer demand depends in part on our capability to obtain timely deliveries of karaoke machines and our electronic products. We rely on third party suppliers to produce the parts and materials we use to manufacture and produce these products. If our suppliers are unable to provide our factories with the parts and supplies, we will be unable to produce our products. We cannot guarantee that we will be able to purchase the parts we need at reasonable prices or in a timely fashion. In the last several years, there have been shortages of certain chips that we use in our karaoke machines. If we are unable to anticipate any shortages of parts and materials in the future, we may experience severe production problems, which would impact our sales.

CONSUMER DISCRETIONARY SPENDING MAY AFFECT KARAOKE PURCHASES AND IS AFFECTED BY VARIOUS ECONOMIC CONDITIONS AND CHANGES.

Our business and financial performance may be damaged more than most companies by adverse financial conditions affecting our business or by a general weakening of the economy. Purchases of karaoke machines and music are considered discretionary for consumers. Our success will therefore be influenced by a number of economic factors affecting discretionary and consumer spending, such as employment levels, business, interest rates, and taxation rates, all of which are not under our control. Additionally, other extraordinary events such as terrorist attacks or military engagements, which adversely affect the retail environment may restrict consumer spending and thereby adversely affect our sales growth and profitability.

WE MAY HAVE INFRINGED THE COPYRIGHTS OF CERTAIN MUSIC PUBLISHERS AND IF WE VIOLATE FEDERAL COPYRIGHT LAWS, WE WILL BE SUBJECT TO MONETARY PENALTIES.

Over the past several years, the Singing Machine (like its competitors) has received notices from certain music publishers alleging that the full range of necessary rights in their copyrighted works has not been properly licensed in order to sell those works as part of products known as “compact discs with graphics” ("CDG"s). CDG's are compact discs which contain the musical recordings of karaoke songs and graphics which contain the lyrics of the songs. Singing Machine has negotiated licenses with the complaining parties. As with any alleged copyright violations, unlicensed users may be subject to damages under the U.S. Copyright Act. Such damages and claims could have a negative effect on Singing Machine’s ability to sell its music products to its customers. This is the reason the Singing Machine diligently pursues licenses.

WE MAY BE SUBJECT TO CLAIMS FROM THIRD PARTIES FOR UNAUTHORIZED USE OF THEIR PROPRIETARY TECHNOLOGY, COPYRIGHTS OR TRADE SECRETS AND ANY CLAIMS ASSERTED AGAINST US COULD AFFECT OUR NET PROFITABILITY.

We believe that we independently developed the technology used in our electronic and audio software products and that it does not infringe on the proprietary rights, copyrights or trade secrets of others. However, we cannot be sure that we have not infringed on the proprietary rights of third parties or those third parties will not make infringement violation claims against us. During fiscal 2000, Tanashin Denki, Ltd., a Japanese company that holds a patent on a cassette tape drive mechanism alleged that some of our karaoke machines violated their patents. We settled the matters with Tanashin in December 1999. Subsequently in December 2002, Tanashin again alleged that some of our karaoke machines violated their patents. We entered into another settlement agreement with them in May 2003. In addition to Tanashin, we could receive infringement claims from other third parties. Any infringement claims may have a negative effect on our profitability and financial condition.

WE ARE EXPOSED TO THE CREDIT RISK OF OUR CUSTOMERS, WHO ARE EXPERIENCING FINANCIAL DIFFICULTIES, AND IF THESE CUSTOMERS ARE UNABLE TO PAY US, OUR REVENUES AND PROFITABILITY WILL BE REDUCED.

We sell products to retailers, including department stores, lifestyle merchants, direct mail catalogs and showrooms, national chains, specialty stores, and warehouse clubs. Some of these retailers, such as K-Mart, FAO Schwarz and KB Toys, have engaged in leveraged buyouts or transactions in which they incurred a significant amount of debt, and operated under the protection of bankruptcy laws. As of June 11, 2013 we are not aware of any customers which are operating under the protection of bankruptcy laws. Deterioration in the financial condition of our customers could result in bad debt expense to us and have a material adverse effect on our revenues and future profitability.

A DISRUPTION IN THE OPERATION OF OUR WAREHOUSE CENTER IN CALIFORNIA COULD IMPACT OUR ABILITY TO DELIVER MERCHANDISE TO OUR CUSTOMERS, WHICH COULD ADVERSELY AFFECT OUR REVENUES AND PROFITABILITY.

A significant amount of our merchandise is shipped to our customers from our warehouse located in City of Industry, California. Events such as fire or other catastrophic events, any malfunction or disruption of our centralized information systems or shipping problems may result in delays or disruptions in the timely distribution of merchandise to our customers, which could substantially decrease our revenues and profitability.

CURRENT LEVELS OF SECURITIES AND FINANCIAL MARKET RISK.

During the past twelve months, the securities and financial markets have stabilized and our improved financial condition and results of operations have allowed us to obtain traditional financing with Crestmark Bank. Should there be a disruption in the current levels of these markets or a deterioration of our business, there can be no assurance that we will not experience an adverse effect, which may be material, on our ability to access capital and on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

CURRENCY EXCHANGE RATE RISK

The majority of our products are currently manufactured in the People’s Republic of China. During the fiscal year ended March 31, 2013, the Chinese local currency had no material effect on the Company as all of our purchases are denominated in U.S. currency. However, in the event our purchases are required to be made in Chinese local currency, the Yuan, we will be subject to the risks involved in foreign exchange rates. In the future the value of the Yuan may depend to a large extent on the Chinese government’s policies and China’s domestic and international economic and political developments. As a result, our production costs may increase if we are required to make purchases using the Yuan instead of the U.S. dollar and the value of the Yuan increases over time. Any significant increase in the cost of manufacturing our products would have a material adverse affect on our business and results of operations.

INCREASED RAW MATERIAL/PRODUCTION PRICING

The fluctuations in the price of oil has and will continue to affect the Company in connection the sourcing and utilizing petroleum based raw materials and services. The cost of trans-oceanic shipping, plastic and the like are driving up the price our suppliers charge us for finished goods. Also, there have been a series of labor related regulations instituted in China which impact wages and thus the cost of production which may result in our suppliers demanding higher prices for our finished goods. This issue is common to all companies in the same type of business and if the Company is not able to negotiate lower costs, or reduce other expenses, or pass on some or all of these price increases to our customers, our profit margin may be decreased.

RISKS ASSOCIATED WITH OUR CAPITAL STRUCTURE

THE MARKET PRICE OF OUR COMMON STOCK MAY BE VOLATILE WHICH MAY CAUSE INVESTORS TO LOSE ALL OR A PORTION OF THEIR INVESTMENT.

From December 1, 2005 through March 31, 2013, our common stock has traded between a high of $1.57 and a low of $0.02. During this period, we incurred a net loss of $.6 million in Fiscal 2011, a net loss of $3.1 million in Fiscal 2010, a net loss of $1.9 million in fiscal 2006 and loss of $3.6 million in fiscal 2005. Our stock price may continue to be volatile based on similar or other adverse developments in our business. In addition, the stock market periodically experiences significant adverse price and volume fluctuations which may be unrelated to the operating performance of particular companies.

IF OUR OUTSTANDING DERIVATIVE SECURITIES ARE EXERCISED OR CONVERTED, OUR EXISTING SHAREHOLDERS WILL SUFFER DILUTION.

As of March 31, 2013, there were outstanding stock options to purchase an aggregate of 1,307,380 shares of common stock at exercise prices ranging from $0.03 to $1.97 per share, not all of which are immediately exercisable. The weighted average exercise price of the outstanding stock options is approximately $0.26 per share. As of March 31, 2012, there were outstanding and immediately exercisable options to purchase an aggregate of 1,251,380 shares of common stock.

FUTURE SALES OF OUR COMMON STOCK HELD BY CURRENT SHAREHOLDERS AND INVESTORS MAY DEPRESS OUR STOCK PRICE.

As of June 11, 2013 there were 38,028,975 shares of our common stock outstanding. We have filed two registration statements registering an aggregate 3,794,250 of shares of our common stock (a registration statement on Form S-8 to register the sale of 1,844,250 shares underlying options granted under our 1994 Stock Option Plan and a registration statement on Form S-8 to register 1,950,000 shares of our common stock underlying options granted under our Year 2001 Stock Option Plan). An additional registration statement on Form S-1 was filed in October 2003, registering an aggregate of 2,795,465 shares of our common stock. The market price of our common stock could drop due to the sale of large number of shares of our common stock, such as the shares sold pursuant to the registration statements or under Rule 144, or the perception that these sales could occur.

OUR STOCK PRICE MAY DECREASE IF WE ISSUE ADDITIONAL SHARES OF OUR COMMON STOCK.

Our certificate of incorporation, as amended in January 2006, authorizes the issuance of 100,000,000 shares of common stock. As of June 20, 2013, we had 38,028,975 shares of common stock issued and outstanding and an aggregate of 1,307,380 shares issuable under our outstanding stock options. As such, our Board of Directors has the power, without stockholder approval, to issue up to 60,787,826 shares of common stock. Any issuance of additional shares of common stock, whether by us to new shareholders or the exercise of outstanding warrants or options, may result in a reduction of the book value or market price of our outstanding common stock. Issuance of additional shares will reduce the proportionate ownership and voting power of our then existing shareholders.

PROVISIONS IN OUR CHARTER DOCUMENTS AND DELAWARE LAW MAKE IT DIFFICULT FOR A THIRD PARTY TO ACQUIRE OUR COMPANY AND COULD DEPRESS THE PRICE OF OUR COMMON STOCK.

Delaware law and our certificate of incorporation and bylaws contain provisions that could delay, defer or prevent a change in control of our Company or a change in our management. These provisions could also discourage proxy contests and make it more difficult for you and other shareholders to elect directors and take other corporate actions. These provisions of our certificate of incorporation include: authorizing our board of directors to issue additional preferred stock, limiting the persons who may call special meetings of shareholders, and establishing advance notice requirements for nominations for election to our board of directors or for proposing matters that can be acted on by shareholders at shareholder meetings.

IF WE FAIL TO MAINTAIN EFFECTIVE INTERNAL CONTROLS OVER FINANCIAL REPORTING, THE PRICE OF OUR COMMON STOCK MAY BE ADVERSELY AFFECTED.

We are required to establish and maintain appropriate internal controls over financial reporting. Failure to establish those controls, or any failure of those controls once established, could adversely impact our public disclosures regarding our business, financial condition or results of operations. Any actual or perceived weaknesses and conditions that need to be addressed in our internal controls over financial reporting, disclosure of our management’s assessment of our internal controls over financial reporting or disclosure of our public accounting firm’s attestation to or report on management’s assessment of the Company’s internal controls over financial reporting may have an adverse impact on the price of our common stock.

THE MARKET PRICE OF OUR COMMON STOCK MAY BE ADVERSELY AFFECTED BY SEVERAL FACTORS.

The market price of our common stock could fluctuate significantly in response to various factors and events, including:

⋅	our ability to execute our business plan;
⋅	operating results below expectations;
⋅	loss of any strategic relationship;
⋅	industry developments;
⋅	economic and other external factors; and
⋅	period-to-period fluctuations in its financial results.

In addition, the securities markets have from time to time experienced significant price and volume fluctuations that are unrelated to the operating performance of particular companies. These market fluctuations may also materially and adversely affect the market price of our common stock.

WE HAVE NOT PAID CASH DIVIDENDS IN THE PAST AND DO NOT EXPECT TO PAY CASH DIVIDENDS IN THE FUTURE. ANY RETURN ON INVESTMENT MAY BE LIMITED TO THE VALUE OF OUR STOCK.

We have never paid cash dividends on our stock and do not anticipate paying cash dividends on our stock in the foreseeable future. The payment of cash dividends on our stock will depend on our earnings, financial condition and other business and economic factors affecting us at such time as the board of directors may consider relevant. If we do not pay cash dividends, our stock may be less valuable because a return on your investment will only occur if our stock price appreciates.

ITEM 1B. UNRESOLVED STAFF COMMENTS

None.

ITEM 2. PROPERTIES

Our corporate headquarters are located in Fort Lauderdale, Florida where we lease approximately 4,000 square feet of office space. The lease expires on December 31, 2016. The annual rental expense for office facilities was $92,514 for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2013.

We lease one warehouse facility in City of Industry, California. The City of Industry warehouse facility has 90,000 square feet (with an option to acquire an additional 90,000 square feet) and the lease expires on April 30, 2013 and will not be renewed. The annual rental expense was approximately $628,000 for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2013. On March 8, 2013 we executed a new lease for approximately 86,000 square feet of warehouse space in Ontario, California which will commence on June 1, 2013. The lease will expire on August 31, 2020 (term of 87 months) and includes a provision for the abatement of the first three months base rent in the amount of $113,412.

We have a 424 square foot office in Macau. The annual rent expense is $9,846. On May 1,2012 we renewed our office space lease in Macau for an additional two year term ending April 30, 2014. The annual rent expense will remain at $9,846 until April 30, 2013 and the annual expense will increase to $11,538 during the second year of the lease.

We believe that the facilities are well maintained, in substantial compliance with environmental laws and regulations, and adequately covered by insurance. We also believe that these leased facilities are not unique and could be replaced, if necessary, at the end of the term of the existing leases.

ITEM 7. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

The following discussion should be read in conjunction with the Financial Statements and Notes filed herewith. Our fiscal year ends March 31. This document contains certain forward-looking statements regarding anticipated trends in our financial condition and results of operations and our business strategy. (See Part I, Item 1A, "Risk Factors "). These forward-looking statements are based largely on our current expectations and are subject to a number of risks and uncertainties. Actual results could differ materially from these forward-looking statements. Important factors to consider in evaluating such forward-looking statements include (i) changes in external factors or in our internal budgeting process which might impact trends in our results of operations; (ii) unanticipated working capital or other cash requirements; (iii) changes in our business strategy or an inability to execute our strategy due to unanticipated changes in the industries in which we operate; and (iv) various competitive market factors that may prevent us from competing successfully in the marketplace.

Statements included in this Annual Report that do not relate to present or historical conditions are called “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Such forward-looking statements involve known and unknown risks and uncertainties and other factors that could cause actual results or outcomes to differ materially from those expressed in, or implied by, the forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements may include, without limitation, statements relating to our plans, strategies, objectives, expectations and intentions. Words such as “believes,” “forecasts,” “intends,” “possible,” “estimates,” “anticipates,” “expects,” “plans,” “should,” “could,” “will,” and similar expressions are intended to identify forward-looking statements. Our ability to predict or project future results or the effect of events on our operating results is inherently uncertain. Forward-looking statements should not be read as a guarantee of future performance or results, and will not necessarily be accurate indications of the times at, or by which, such performance or results will be achieved.

OVERVIEW

Our primary objectives for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2013 (“Fiscal 2013”) were to:

	⋅	increase the revenues by expanding our product lines and customer base;
	⋅	continue to drive down the operating costs as a percentage of net sales;
	⋅	sustain profitability;
	⋅	obtain better financing facilities; and
	⋅	raise additional equity.

We made significant progress on all of our objectives with the exception of raising additional equity as we continued to improve the financial status of the Company during Fiscal 2013. More specifically, our revenues for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2013 increased by approximately 33% over the same period ended March 31, 2012 due to expansion of our customer base and product offering with two major retail vendors. We improved gross profit margins to 23.4% which was an improvement of 1.6 percentage points over the prior year. While total operating expenses increased by 25.5%, these expenses as a percentage of net sales decreased to 18.9% for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2013 from 20.0% for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2012. Depreciation expense decreased by approximately $62,000 as older tooling and molds reached the end of their useful lives. Foreign sales decreased by approximately $261,000 and fell short of expectations. We continued to experience significant pricing competition and lack of low cost entry point products preferred by European customers. Nonetheless, international sales remain a priority for future revenue growth.

During the fiscal year we were able to obtain financing from Crestmark Bank which eliminated our requirement for bridge financing from the Starlight group companies (“Group”). During the fiscal year ended March 31, 2013, our related party debt increased by approximately $18,000 due to current trade invoices due to the Group. We estimate that we will not require any bridge financing requirements from the Group for the fiscal year ending March 31, 2014 but we will continue to rely on the Group to provide extended terms for trade payables with the Group to help insure timely payment of other vendors. Taking into account internally generated funds and credit facilities available to the Group we have concluded that our parent will have sufficient working capital to provide extended trade payable terms to us for at least the next 12 months.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS The following table sets forth, for the periods indicated, certain income and expense items expressed as a percentage of the Company's total revenues:

	2013		2012		2011
Total Revenues	100.0	%	100.0	%	100.0	%
Cost of Sales	76.6	%	78.2	%	77.9	%

Net Income (Loss)	9.1	%	1.8	%	-3.2	%

FISCAL YEAR ENDED MARCH 31, 2013 COMPARED WITH FISCAL YEAR ENDED MARCH 31, 2012

NET SALES

Net sales for the year ended March 31, 2013 (“Fiscal 2013”) were approximately $34.4 million. This represents an increase of approximately $8.5 million as compared to approximately $25.9 million in the fiscal year ended March 31, 2012 (“Fiscal 2012”). The increase in net sales was primarily due to an increase in direct import sales to two major retail customers of approximately $6.0 million and continued growth of approximately $2.2M from our direct shipment fulfillment program for major retailers with the remaining increase due to new business with smaller retail customers. We continue to develop additional features to our existing karaoke line as well as develop new karaoke technology and product line to maintain and grow this core product.

GROSS PROFIT

Gross profit for Fiscal 2013 was approximately $8.1 million or 23.4% of total revenues compared to approximately $5.7 million or 21.8% of sales for Fiscal 2012 (an increase of $2.4 million). The 43% increase in gross profit was primarily due to the increase of direct import sales to two major North American customers and the 144% increase in direct shipment fulfillment program. The increase in sales accounted for approximately 79% of the gross profit increase with the remaining 21% due to an increase in gross profit margin.

Gross profit margin for the year ended March 31, 2013 compared to the same period ended March 31, 2012 increased by approximately 1.6 margin points from 21.8% to 23.4%. The increase was primarily due to increased direct import sales to two major retail customers and favorable mix of products sold that accounted for substantially all of the increase.

Our gross profit may not be comparable to those of other entities, since some entities include the costs of warehousing, inspection, freight charges and other distribution costs in their cost of sales. We account for the above expenses as operating expenses and classify them under the selling expenses.

OPERATING EXPENSES

In fiscal year 2013, we continued to reduce our fixed operating expenses as a percentage of sales while maintaining the increase in variable expenses commensurate with the increase in net sales. Operating expenses, including depreciation and amortization increased from approximately $5.2 million to approximately $6.5 million, an increase of approximately $1.3 million or 25% compared to the same period last year. Selling expenses increased approximately $.6 million to $3.1 million for the year ended March 31, 2013 from $2.5 million for the year ended March 31, 2012. Selling expenses which include variable expenses such as commissions, advertising allowances, outbound freight and royalties increased by approximately 25% which directly related to the 33% increase in net sales.

General and administrative expenses increased approximately $.8M from approximately $2.5 million in Fiscal 2012 to approximately $3.3 million in Fiscal 2013. The increase was primarily due to reduced warehouse reimbursements from the Starlight group companies of approximately $.4 million, factor fees from Crestmark Bank financing arrangement of approximately $.1 million and an increase in salaries and wages of approximately $.1 million for merit increases and discretionary bonus payments. The remaining $.2 million increase was due to several expense items that were somewhat variable relative to the increase in net sales. Despite the approximate 30% increase in general and administrative expenses for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2013, we reduced our fixed general and administrative expenses as a percentage of net sales from 9.8% in the prior fiscal year ended March 31, 2012 to 9.6% for the current fiscal year ended March 31, 2013. We continued our efforts of reducing our administrative operating costs by increasing efficiencies in our business processes.

DEPRECIATION AND AMORTIZATION

Our depreciation and amortization expenses were $110,267 for Fiscal 2013 compared to $171,818 for Fiscal 2012. The property and equipment consisted mainly of tools and molds, which are depreciated straight-line over three to five years. The decrease in depreciation expense was primarily due to several tools and molds having reached the end of their depreciable lives. During the past year we have invested in approximately $254,000 in tooling for new karaoke models and technology and approximately $43,000 in warehouse equipment, computers and other office equipment.

NET OTHER INCOME (EXPENSES)

Other expense was $48,421 (interest expense) in Fiscal 2013 compared to other expense of $7,796 (interest expense) in Fiscal 2012. The increase was due to the increase of our borrowing costs from our financing arrangement with Crestmark Bank.

INCOME BEFORE TAXES

We had income before taxes of $1,521,476 in Fiscal 2013 compared to income before taxes of $463,116 in Fiscal 2012. This increase was primarily due to the combination of 33% increase in net sales due increased direct import sales to two major retailers and significant increase in our direct shipment fulfillment programs to North American customers, gross profit margin percentage improvement due to favorable sales mix, management’s continued efforts to reduce operating expenses as a percentage of net sales and decreased depreciation expenses due to molds and tooling having reached the end of their depreciable lives.

INCOME TAX BENEFIT

Significant management judgment is required in developing our provisions for income taxes, including the determination of foreign tax liabilities, deferred tax assets and liabilities and any valuation allowances that might be required against deferred tax assets. Management evaluates its ability to realize its deferred tax assets on a quarterly basis and adjusts its valuation allowance when it believes that it is not likely to be realized. On March 31, 2013 and 2012, we had gross deferred tax assets of approximately $3.2 million and approximately $3.9 million, against which we recorded valuation allowances totaling approximately $1.6 million and approximately $3.9 million, respectively.

For Fiscal 2013 we recognized an income tax benefit of approximately $1.6 million due to the reversal of 50% of the valuation reserve on our deferred tax assets. Given the past two years of profitability and management’s assessment of the current business climate, it is management’s judgment that at least 50% of our deferred tax asset is more than likely to be realized. In Fiscal 2012 we did not record a provision for income taxes as the Company had sufficient net operating loss carryforwards to offset taxable income for the U.S. operations and the Macau subsidiary is exempt from income tax according to the Macau Offshore Company (MOC) regulations.

We operate within multiple taxing jurisdictions and are subject to audit in those jurisdictions. Because of the complex issues involved, any claims can require an extended period to resolve. In management's opinion, adequate provisions for income taxes have been made.

NET INCOME

As a result of the foregoing, we had net income of $3,140,935 in Fiscal 2013 from operations as compared to a net income of $463,116 in Fiscal 2012.

FISCAL YEAR ENDED MARCH 31, 2012 COMPARED WITH FISCAL YEAR ENDED MARCH 31, 2011

NET SALES

Net sales for Fiscal 2012 were approximately $25.9 million. This represents an increase of approximately $6.7 million as compared to approximately $19.2 million in the fiscal year ended March 31, 2011 (“Fiscal 2011”). The increase in net sales was all due to an increase in direct import sales to international customers of approximately $.4 million and North American customers of approximately $6.3 million. This increase is due to a significant increase in three major North American retail customers from the prior year. We continue to develop additional features to our karaoke line to maintain and grow this core product.

GROSS PROFIT

Gross profit for Fiscal 2012 was approximately $5.7 million or 21.8% of total revenues compared to approximately $4.2 million or 22.1% of sales for Fiscal 2011 (an increase of $1.5 million). The 33% increase in gross profit was commensurate with the increase in net sales of 35% due to the increase of direct import sales to North American and international customers.

Gross profit margin for the year ended March 31, 2012 compared to the same period ended March 31, 2011 decreased by approximately .3 margin points from 22.1% to 21.8%. The decrease was primarily due to an increase in inventory reserves for impairment of our consignment music and certain karaoke hardware closeout goods of approximately $212,000 contributing a decrease of .8 margin points. This was offset by somewhat more favorable margins due to the mix of products sold.

OPERATING EXPENSES

In fiscal year 2012, we continued to reduce our fixed operating expenses while maintaining the increase in variable expenses commensurate with the increase in net sales. Operating expenses, including depreciation and amortization increased from approximately $4.8 million to approximately $5.2 million, an increase of approximately $.4 million or 8.3% compared to the same period last year. Selling expenses increased approximately $.6 million to $2.5 million for the year ended March 31, 2012 from $1.8 million for the year ended March 31, 2011. Selling expenses which include variable expenses such as commissions, advertising allowances, outbound freight and royalties increased by approximately 33% which is in line with 35% increase in net sales.

Despite the 35% increase in net sales for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2012, we reduced our fixed general and administrative approximately $38,000 from the prior fiscal year ended March 31, 2011. We continued our efforts of reducing our administrative operating costs by increasing efficiencies in our business processes.

DEPRECIATION AND AMORTIZATION

Our depreciation and amortization expenses were $171,818 for Fiscal 2012 compared to $430,115 for Fiscal 2011. The fixed assets mainly consist of the tools and molds, which are depreciated with three years to 5 years straight-line method. The decrease in depreciation expense was primarily due to several tools and molds having reached the end of their depreciable lives. During the past year we have invested in approximately $165,000 in tooling for new karaoke models.

NET OTHER INCOME (EXPENSES)

Net other expense was $7,796 (interest expense) in Fiscal 2012 compared to net other expense of $20,874 (interest expense) in Fiscal 2011. The decrease was primarily due to the decrease of our borrowing costs since the final termination of our financing arrangement with DBS Bank.

INCOME BEFORE TAXES

We had income before taxes of $463,116 in Fiscal 2012 compared to a loss before taxes of $619,548 in Fiscal 2011. This increase was primarily due to the combination of 35% increase in net sales due primarily to direct sales increases to international and North American customers, management’s continued efforts to reduce operating expenses and decreased depreciation expenses due to molds and tooling having reached the end of their depreciable lives.

INCOME TAX EXPENSE

Significant management judgment is required in developing our provisions for income taxes, including the determination of foreign tax liabilities, deferred tax assets and liabilities and any valuation allowances that might be required against deferred tax assets. Management evaluates its ability to realize its deferred tax assets on a quarterly basis and adjusts its valuation allowance when it believes that it is not likely to be realized. On March 31, 2012 and 2011, we had gross deferred tax assets of approximately $3.9 million and approximately $3.5 million, against which we recorded valuation allowances totaling approximately $3.9 million and approximately $3.5 million, respectively.

For Fiscal 2012 and Fiscal 2011 we did not record a provision for income taxes as the Company incurred a taxable loss for the period since the Company had taxable losses for the U.S. operations and the Macau subsidiary is exempt from income tax according to the Macau Offshore Company (MOC) regulations.

NET LOSS/NET INCOME

As a result of the foregoing, we had net income of $463,116 in Fiscal 2012 from operations as compared to a net loss of $619,548 in Fiscal 2011.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

On March 31, 2013, we had cash on hand of approximately $1,700,000 compared to cash on hand of approximately $300,000 on March 31, 2012. The increase of cash on hand was primarily due to the improvement in operating income of approximately $1,100,000, an increase in accrued expenses of approximately $500,000 and offset by a decrease in accounts payable of approximately $200,000. Cash provided by operating activities in Fiscal 2013 was approximately $1,682,000. Most of the cash was retained in cash on hand as of the fiscal year ended March 31, 2013.

Cash used in investing activities for Fiscal 2013 was approximately $297,000. Cash used in investing activities was primarily for the purchase of a base platform for our newly designed future karaoke hardware line of products as well as warehouse equipment for the new California warehouse facility.

Cash used in financing activities was $0 for Fiscal 2013 as all amounts borrowed against the Crestmark line of credit were repaid in full during the fiscal year.

As of March 31, 2013, our working capital was approximately $3.3 million. Our current liabilities of approximately $4.5 million include:

	⋅	Client obligations for defective returns and allowances of $376,289 – the amount will be satisfied by future purchases or refunds.
	⋅	Accounts payable of $1,135,125 of which $636,474 was due to three customers who have requested cash refunds for defective returns.
	⋅	Amounts due to related parties of $4,615,937 due various parties within the Starlight Group.
	⋅	Accrued expenses of $686,012 of which $551,494 was due to customers for advertising and co-op allowances.
	⋅	Warranty provision for estimated effective returns in the amount of $215,471.

As of April 30, 2013, our cash on hand is approximately $600,000 of which approximately $137,000 is restricted cash deposited in a Certificate of Deposit as collateral on a standby letter of credit issued as a security deposit on our new California warehouse lease. Our average monthly operating expenses are approximately $230,000 and we need approximately $700,000 to cover our operating expenses during the next three month period. Our primary expenses are normal operating costs including salaries, lease payments for our warehouse space in California and other operating costs.

WORKING CAPITAL REQUIREMENTS DURING THE SHORT AND LONG TERM

During the next twelve month period, we plan on financing our working capital needs from:

1) Equity investments – The Company is actively seeking equity financing to expand its business. We expect to raise additional capital as required for fiscal year ended March 31, 2014 (“Fiscal 2014”).

2) Vendor financing – Some of our key vendors in China (including The Starlight Group) have agreed to manufacture on behalf of the Company without advanced payments and have extended payment terms to the Company. The terms with the factories are sufficient to cover the factory direct sales, are expected to account for more than 45% of the total revenues in Fiscal 2014.

3) Line of Credit - The Company was successful in obtaining a $5,000,000 collateralized line of credit during Fiscal 2013 which reduced our reliance on key vendors providing us with extended payment terms for our goods. The Company is actively negotiating to increase our line of credit to $7,500,000 and convert the current financing agreement to a more traditional Asset Base Lending arrangement which should reduce the Company’s cost of financing.

4) Cost reduction - The Company has reduced significant operating expenses as a percentage of net sales in recent years with the exception of Fiscal 2009. The cost reduction initiatives are part of our intensive effort to achieve operating profits. The Company plans to maintain its cost structure for Fiscal 2014.

5) Reduce cost of operation – The Company maintains SMC-L as a wholly-owned subsidiary to operate our California warehouse. For Fiscal 2014, SMC-L will renew an agreement with the Starlight Group to handle the logistics and fulfillment of Starlight Groups’ domestic products for a service fee. This arrangement is expected to significantly offset the Company’s own logistics expenses. In addition, the Company recently entered into a seven year lease agreement for a new warehouse facility in California replacing the existing facility lease that expires on April 30, 2013. The Company will continue to occupy approximately 86,000 square feet in the new facility however the cost per square foot has been substantially reduced and should save the Company approximately $200,000 in rent expense annually.

Our sources of cash for working capital in the long term are the same as our sources during the short term. If we need additional financing, we intend to approach different financing companies or insiders. However, we cannot guarantee that our financing plan will succeed. If we need to obtain additional financing and fail to do so, it may have a material adverse effect on our ability to meet our financial obligations and continue our operations.

In addition to our current financing arrangements, the Starlight Group (“Group”) has expressed their willingness and ability to provide extended payment terms to us for key vendor payments primarily by extending longer payment terms for goods they manufacture for us. We do not believe we will require any bridge financing from the Group for the fiscal year ending March 31, 2014, however we will continue to take advantage of extended terms for trade payables with the Group throughout the year. During the fiscal year ended March 31, 2013, our related party debt increased by approximately $18,000 primarily due to current invoices for repaired goods. Taking into account internally generated funds and credit facilities available to the Group we have concluded that our parent will have sufficient working capital to provide extended trade payable terms to us for at least the next 12 months.

During Fiscal 2014, we will strive to reduce additional operating costs through efficiency improvements. In order to reduce the need to maintain inventory in our warehouses in California we intend to continue to ship a significant portion of our total sales directly from SMC Macau. The goods shipped directly to our customers from ports in China are primarily backed by customer letters of credit. The customers take title to the merchandise at their consolidators in China and are responsible for the shipment, duty, clearance and freight charges to their locations. In order to keep our inventory low, we have been helping our customers forecast and manage their Singing Machine inventories. This will prevent the overstocking situation with customers.

Except for the foregoing, we do not have any present commitment that is likely to cause our liquidity to increase or decrease in any material way. In addition, except for the Company’s need for additional capital to finance inventory purchases, the Company is not aware of any trend, additional demand, event or uncertainty that will result in, or that is reasonably likely to result in, the Company’s liquidity increasing or decreasing in any material way. The Company is reliant upon our parent company, Starlight International, to manufacture approximately 25% of our products with extended trade payable terms to help insure that unrelated key vendors are paid timely. Any significant change in Starlight International’s ability to continue to provide manufacturing and extended payment terms may have a material adverse effect on our ability to meet our financial obligations and continue our operations.

EXCHANGE RATES

We sell all of our products in U.S. dollars and pay for all of our manufacturing costs in either U.S. or Hong Kong dollars. Operating expenses of the Macau office are paid in either Hong Kong dollars or Macau currency (MOP) The exchange rate of the Hong Kong dollar to the U.S. dollar has been fixed by the Hong Kong government since 1983 at HK$7.80 to U.S. $1.00 and, accordingly, has not represented a currency exchange risk to the U.S. dollar. The exchange rate of the MOP to the U.S. dollar is MOP $8.0 to U.S. $1.00. We cannot assure you that the exchange rate between the United States, Macau and Hong Kong currencies will continue to be fixed or that exchange rate fluctuations will not have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition or results of operations.

SEASONAL AND QUARTERLY RESULTS

Historically, our operations have been seasonal, with the highest net sales occurring in the second and third quarters (reflecting increased orders for equipment and music merchandise during the Christmas selling months) and to a lesser extent the first and fourth quarters of the fiscal year. Sales in our fiscal second and third quarter, combined, accounted for approximately 90.0%, 87.9%, and 79.8% of net sales in Fiscal 2013, Fiscal 2012, and Fiscal 2011.

Our results of operations may also fluctuate from quarter to quarter as a result of the amount and timing of orders placed and shipped to customers, as well as other factors. The fulfillment of orders can therefore significantly affect results of operations on a quarter-to-quarter basis.

We are currently developing and considering selling products other than karaoke related items during the slow season to fulfill the revenue shortfall.

INFLATION

Inflation has not had a significant impact on the Company's operations. The Company has historically passed any price increases on to its customers since prices charged by the Company are generally not fixed by long-term contracts.

OFF BALANCE SHEET ARRANGEMENTS

None.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES

We prepared our consolidated financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. As such, management is required to make certain estimates, judgments and assumptions that it believes are reasonable based on the information available. These estimates and assumptions affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses for the periods presented. The significant accounting policies which management believes are the most critical to aid in fully understanding and evaluating our reported financial results included accounts receivable allowance for doubtful accounts, reserves on inventory and income tax.

COLLECTIBILITY OF ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE. The Singing Machine's allowance for doubtful accounts is based on management's estimates of the creditworthiness of its customers, current economic conditions and historical information, and, in the opinion of management, is believed to be an amount sufficient to respond to normal business conditions. Management sets 100% reserves for customers in bankruptcy and other reserves based upon historical collection experience. Should business conditions deteriorate or any major customer default on its obligations to the Company, this allowance may need to be significantly increased, which would have a negative impact on operations.

RESERVES ON INVENTORIES . The Singing Machine establishes a reserve on inventory based on the expected net realizable value of inventory on an item by item basis when it is apparent that the expected realizable value of an inventory item falls below its original cost. A charge to cost of sales results when the estimated net realizable value of specific inventory items declines below cost. Management regularly reviews the Company's investment in inventories for such declines in value.

INCOME TAXES We operate within multiple taxing jurisdictions and are subject to audit in those jurisdictions. Because of the complex issues involved, any claims can require an extended period to resolve. In management's opinion, adequate provisions for potential income taxes in the jurisdictions have been made.

OTHER ESTIMATES. We make other estimates in the ordinary course of business relating to sales returns and allowances, warranty reserves, and reserves for promotional incentives. Historically, past changes to these estimates have not had a material impact on our financial condition. However, circumstances could change which may alter future expectations.

RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS:

In December 2011, the FASB issued ASU 2011-11, regarding d isclosures about offsetting assets and liabilities. This update requires entities to disclose both gross and net information about instruments and transactions eligible for offset in the statement of financial position and instruments and transactions subject to an agreement similar to a master netting arrangement. Disclosures are required for derivatives, sale and repurchase agreements and reverse sale and repurchase agreements, and securities borrowing and securities lending arrangements. This update was effective for annual reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2013, and interim periods within those annual periods. The adoption of ASU 2011-11 did not have any impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

ITEM 7A. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

We are a smaller reporting company as defined by Rule 12b-2 of the Exchange Act and are not required to provide the information required under this item.

ITEM 8. FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AND SUPPLEMENTARY DATA

The financial statements and supplemental data required pursuant to this Item 8 are included in this Annual Report, as a separate section, commencing on page F-1 and are incorporated herein by reference.

ITEM 9. CHANGES IN AND DISAGREEMENTS WITH ACCOUNTANTS ON ACCOUNTING AND FINANCIAL DISCLOSURE

N/A

ITEM 9A. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

(a) Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

As of the end of the period covered by this Annual Report, we conducted an evaluation as required by Rule 13a-15(b) and Rule 15d-15(b) of the Exchange Act, under the supervision and with the participation of our interim Chief Executive Officer and interim Chief Financial Officer of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) and Rule 15d-15(e) of the Exchange Act). Based upon this evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective.

In designing and evaluating our disclosure controls and procedures, management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives, and management necessarily is required to apply its judgment in evaluating the relationship between the benefit of desired controls and procedures and the cost of implementing new controls and procedures.

(b) Management’s Annual Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting

Management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act. This rule defines internal control over financial reporting as a process designed by, or under the supervision of Company management to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Management has assessed the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting using the components established in the Internal Control-Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission.

A system of internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. A material weakness is any deficiency, or combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting, such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of our company’s annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis.

Based upon this evaluation, our interim Chief Executive Officer and interim Chief Financial Officer concluded that our internal control over financial reporting was effective as of the period covered by this Annual Report.

There were no changes in the Company’s internal controls over financial reporting during the quarter ended March 31, 2013, that materially affected, or were reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

This Annual Report does not include an attestation report of the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting. Management’s report was not subject to attestation by the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm pursuant to rules of the SEC that permit the Company to provide only management’s report in this Annual Report.

BOARD COMMITTEES

We have an audit committee, a compensation committee and a nominating committee.

The Board has determined that Mr. Judkowitz qualifies as an "audit committee financial expert," as defined under Item 407 of Regulation S-K of the Exchange Act. The Board has determined that each of Messrs. Judkowitz, Merkin and Appel are "independent directors" within the meaning of the listing standards of the major stock exchanges. The audit committee recommends the engagement of independent auditors to the board, initiates and oversees investigations into matters relating to audit functions, reviews the plans and results of audits with our independent auditors, reviews our internal accounting controls, and approves services to be performed by our independent auditors.

The compensation committee consists of Messrs. Judkowitz and Merkin. The compensation committee considers and authorizes remuneration arrangements for senior management and grants options under, and administers our employee stock option plan.

The nominating committee consists of Messrs. Appel (Chairman), Merkin and Yat Tung Lau. The nominating committee is responsible for reviewing the qualifications of potential nominees for election to the Board of Directors and recommending the nominees to the Board of Directors for such election.

Nomination of Directors

As provided in our nominating committee charter and our Company’s corporate governance principles, the Nominating Committee is responsible for identifying individuals qualified to become directors. The Nominating Committee seeks to identify director candidates based on input provided by a number of sources, including (1) the Nominating Committee members, (2) our other directors, (3) our shareholders, (4) our Chief Executive Officer or Chairman, and (5) third parties such as professional search firms. In evaluating potential candidates for director, the Nominating Committee considers the entirety of each candidate’s credentials.

Qualifications for consideration as a director nominee may vary according to the particular areas of expertise being sought as a complement to the existing composition of the Board of Directors. However, at a minimum, candidates for director must possess:

•

high personal and professional ethics and integrity;

•

the ability to exercise sound judgment;

•

the ability to make independent analytical inquiries;

•

a willingness and ability to devote adequate time and resources to diligently perform Board and committee duties; and

•

the appropriate and relevant business experience and acumen.

In addition to these minimum qualifications, the Nominating Committee also takes into account when considering whether to nominate a potential director candidate the following factors:

•

whether the person possesses specific industry expertise and familiarity with general issues affecting our business;

•

whether the person’s nomination and election would enable the Board to have a member that qualifies as an “audit committee financial expert” as such term is defined by the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) in Item 401 of Regulation S-K;

•

whether the person would qualify as an “independent” director under the listing standards of the AMEX;

•

the importance of continuity of the existing composition of the Board of Directors to provide long term stability and experienced oversight; and

•

the importance of diversified Board membership, in terms of both the individuals involved and their various experiences and areas of expertise.

There have been no material changes to the procedures by which stockholders may recommend nominees to the Company’s board of directors as set forth in the Company’s Proxy Statement on Schedule 14A filed with the SEC on January 18, 2013.

FAMILY RELATIONSHIPS

There are no family relationships among any of our officers or other directors, except for Chairwoman Carol Lau who is the aunt of Director Yat Tung Lau and the mother of Gary Atkinson, the Company’s CEO and General Counsel.

COMPLIANCE WITH SECTION 16(A) OF THE EXCHANGE ACT

Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act requires our officers, directors, and persons who own more than ten percent of a registered class of our equity securities to file reports of securities ownership and changes in such ownership with the SEC.

During Fiscal 2013, we have utilized the following compensation policy for our directors:

YEAR 2001 PLAN

On June 1, 2001, our Board of Directors approved the Year 2001 Plan and it was approved by our shareholders at our special meeting held September 6, 2001. The Year 2001 Plan was developed to provide a means whereby directors and selected employees, officers, consultants, and advisors of the Company may be granted incentive or non-qualified stock options to purchase common stock of the Company. The Year 2001 Plan authorized an aggregate of 1,950,000 shares of the Company’s common stock with a maximum of 450,000 shares to any one individual in any one fiscal year. The shares of common stock available under the Year 2001 Plan were subject to adjustment for any stock split, declaration of a stock dividend or similar event. At March 31, 2013, we had granted 1,251,380 options under the Year 2001 Plan, 1,251,380 of which were fully vested. As of this date the Year 2001 Plan has expired and no further options can be issued thereunder.

Options granted under the Year 2001 Plan are not transferable except by will or applicable laws of descent and distribution. Except as expressly determined by the Compensation Committee, no option under the Year 2001 Plan is exercisable after thirty (30) days following an individual's termination of employment with the Company or a subsidiary, unless such termination of employment occurs by reason of such individual's disability, retirement or death. The obligations of the Company under the Year 2001 Plan are binding on (1) any successor corporation or organization resulting from the merger, consolidation or other reorganization of the Company or (2) any successor corporation or organization succeeding to all or substantially all of the assets and business of the Company. In the event of any of the foregoing, the Compensation Committee may, at its discretion, prior to the consummation of the transaction, offer to purchase, cancel, exchange, adjust or modify any outstanding options, as such time and in such manner as the Compensation Committee deems appropriate.

401(K) PLAN

Effective January 1, 2001, we adopted a voluntary 401(k) plan. All employees with at least one year of service are eligible to participate in our 401(k) plan. We make a matching contribution of 100% of salary deferral contributions up to 3% of pay, plus 50% of salary deferral contributions from 3% to 5% of pay for each payroll period. The amounts charged to earnings for contributions to this plan and administrative costs during the years ended March 31, 2013, 2012 and 2011 totaled $30,589, $24,933 and $18,660, respectively.

ITEM 12. SECURITY OWNERSHIP OF CERTAIN BENEFICIAL OWNERS AND MANAGEMENT AND RELATED STOCKHOLDER MATTERS

The following table sets forth as of May 17, 2013 (the “record date”), certain information concerning beneficial ownership of our common stock by:

⋅

ITEM 13. CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS AND DIRECTOR INDEPENDENCE

Approximately 32% of our karaoke products in Fiscal 2013 were produced by factories owned by the Starlight Group and we anticipate that approximately 33% of our karaoke products will be manufactured by the Starlight Group in Fiscal 2014. Starlight International has verbally agreed to manufacture our karaoke products without requiring prepayment from us and will instead assume the cost of manufacturing the products until such time as we are paid by the customers who are purchasing those products from us.

During Fiscal 2013 and 2012 we sold approximately $1,813,000 and $1,619,000, respectively of product to Star Light Electronics Company, Ltd.

In addition, we sold an additional $410,000 in Fiscal 2013 and $87,000 in Fiscal 2012 of product to Cosmo from our California warehouse facility. The average gross profit margin on sales to Cosmo yielded 14.4% and 8.8%, respectively. We also sold approximately $0 in Fiscal 2013 and $289,000 in Fiscal 2012 to Cosmo Communications HK, Ltd. who is also a related company. Cosmo was our primary distributor of the Company’s product to Canada in Fiscal 2013 and Fiscal 2012 and will continue in this role for Fiscal 2014.

During Fiscal 2013 and 2012 we purchased products from Starlight Consumer Electronics USA, Inc, (“Starlight USA) an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of Starlight International of approximately $4,932,000 and $5,750,000, respectively.

All of these companies were indirectly wholly-owned subsidiaries of Starlight International. During the fiscal years ended March 31, 2013 and 2012 we received charges for repair defective products from Star Fair in the amount of approximately $39,000 and $0, respectively and Starlight Marketing Development Ltd. (an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of Starlight International) of approximately $0 and $115,000, respectively. In connection with the import of these products to our California warehouse we paid inbound freight charges during the fiscal years ended March 31, 2013 and 2012 to Starlight USA of approximately $54,000 and $248,000, respectively and to Starlight R&D, Ltd of approximately $229,000 and $0, respectively.

These expense reimbursements were included in general and administrative expense on our consolidated statements of operations .

As of April 1, 2012 Star Light began charging interest on the current year intercompany trade payables that were past due at a rate of 4.5% per annum. For fiscal years ended March 31, 2013 and March 31, 2012, the Company paid interest expense to Star Light in the amounts of $7,294 and $0, respectively.

On July 1, 2012, SMC-L entered into a service and logistics agreement with Starlight Consumer Electronics (USA), Inc. (“Starlight USA”), an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of Starlight International, Cosmo USA, Inc. (“Cosmo USA”) and Starlight Electronics USA, Inc. (“Starlight Electronics USA”) to provide logistics, fulfillment, and warehousing services for Starlight USA, Cosmo USA and Starlight Electronic USA’s domestic sales. For these services, Starlight USA, Cosmo USA and Starlight Electronics USA have agreed to pay the Company annual service fees totaling approximately $435,000 payable monthly beginning July 1, 2012. The Company received approximately $399,000 and $0 in service fees from these affiliates during Fiscal 2013 and Fiscal 2012, respectively.

On August 1, 2011, SMC-L entered into a service and logistics agreement with affiliates Starlight USA, Starlight Electronics USA and Cosmo USA to provide logistics, fulfillment, and warehousing services for the affiliates’ domestic sales.

Review, Approval or Ratification of Transactions with Related Persons

We believe that the terms of all of the above transactions are commercially reasonable and no less favorable to us than we could have obtained from an unaffiliated third party on an arm’s length basis. Our policy requires that all related parties recuse themselves from negotiating and voting on behalf of our company in connection with related party transactions. While we do not maintain a written policy with respect to related party transactions, our board of directors routinely reviews potential transactions with those parties we have identified as related parties prior to the consummation of the transaction. Each transaction is reviewed to determine that a related party transaction is entered into by us with the related party on an “arms length” basis, or pursuant to normal competitive negotiation. We also generally require that all related parties recuse themselves from negotiating and voting on behalf of the Company in connection with related party transactions.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

To the Board of Directors and Shareholders of

The Singing Machine Company, Inc. and Subsidiaries

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of The Singing Machine Company, Inc. and Subsidiaries (the “Company”) as of March 31, 2013 and 2012, and the related consolidated statements of operations, shareholders’ equity (deficit), and cash flows for each of the years in the three year period ended March 31, 2013. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (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. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audits included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. 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 audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of March 31, 2013 and 2012, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the years in the three year period ended March 31, 2013, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

We have also audited Schedule II - Valuation and Qualifying Accounts of the Company for the years ended March 31, 2013, 2012, 2011. In our opinion, this schedule, when considered in relation to the basic consolidated financial statements taken as a whole, presents fairly, in all material respects, the information therein.

THE SINGING MACHINE COMPANY, INC AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

NOTE 1 - BASIS OF PRESENTATION

OVERVIEW

The Singing Machine Company, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the "Company," “SMC”, "The Singing Machine"), and wholly-owned subsidiaries SMC (Comercial Offshore De Macau) Limitada (“Macau Subsidiary”), SMC Logistics, Inc. (“SMC-L”), SMC-Music, Inc. (“SMC-M”), and Singing Machine Holdings Ltd. (a B.V.I. company) are primarily engaged in the development, marketing, and sale of consumer karaoke audio equipment, accessories, musical instruments and musical recordings. The products are sold directly to distributors and retail customers.

The Company does business with a major supplier, koncepts International Limited (“koncepts”). koncepts is a major stockholder of the Company, owning approximately 52% of our shares of common stock outstanding. koncepts is an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of Starlight International Holdings Limited (“Starlight International”), a company whose principal activities include designing, manufacturing and selling electronic products through its various subsidiaries. Starlight International’s products include television sets, consumer karaoke audio equipment and DVD products. We do business with a number of entities that are indirectly wholly-owned or majority owned subsidiaries of Starlight International, including Starlight Marketing Limited, Cosmo Communications Corporation (“Cosmo”) and Starlite Consumer Electronics (USA), Inc., among others (Starlight International and its subsidiaries collectively referred to herein as the “Starlight Group” or “Starlight”).

NOTE 2 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

PRINCIPLES OF CONSOLIDATION

The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company, its Macau Subsidiary, SMC-L, SMC-M and The Singing Machine Holdings Ltd. All inter-company accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation for all periods presented.

USE OF ESTIMATES

The Singing Machine makes estimates and assumptions in the ordinary course of business relating to sales returns and allowances, warranty reserves, inventory reserves and reserves for promotional incentives that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Future events and their effects cannot be determined with absolute certainty; therefore, the determination of estimates requires the exercise of judgment. Historically, past changes to these estimates have not had a material impact on the Company's financial condition. However, circumstances could change which may alter future expectations.

COLLECTIBILITY OF ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE

The Singing Machine's allowance for doubtful accounts is based on management's estimates of the creditworthiness of its customers, current economic conditions and historical information, and, in the opinion of management, is believed to be an amount sufficient to respond to normal business conditions. Management sets 100% reserves for customers in bankruptcy and other allowances based upon historical collection experience. Should business conditions deteriorate or any major customer default on its obligations to the Company, this allowance may need to be significantly increased, which would have a negative impact on operations.

FOREIGN CURRENCY TRANSLATION

The functional currency of the Macau Subsidiary is the Hong Kong dollar. The financial statements of the subsidiaries are translated to U.S. dollars using year-end rates of exchange for assets and liabilities, and average rates of exchange for the year for revenues, costs, and expenses. Net gains and losses resulting from foreign exchange transactions and translations were not material during the periods presented.

Concentration of Credit Risk

At times, the Company maintains cash in United States bank accounts that are in excess of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) insured amounts of up to $250,000. As of March 31, 2013 and March 31, 2012, the Company had cash deposits of $1,007,894 and $0, respectively that exceeded the FDIC insurance limit. The Company maintains cash balances in foreign financial institutions. The insured amounts at foreign financial institutions at March 31, 2013 and March 31, 2012 are $256,035 and $66,398, respectively.

INVENTORY

Inventories are comprised of electronic karaoke equipment, accessories, electronic musical instruments, electronic toys and compact discs and are stated at the lower of cost or market, as determined using the first in, first out method. The Singing Machine reduces inventory on hand to its net realizable value on an item-by-item basis when it is apparent that the expected realizable value of an inventory item falls below its original cost. A charge to cost of sales results when the estimated net realizable value of specific inventory items declines below cost. Management regularly reviews the Company's investment in inventories for such declines in value.

F-7

REVENUE RECOGNITION

Revenue from the sale of equipment, accessories, and musical recordings are recognized upon the later of: (a) the time of shipment or (b) when title passes to the customers and all significant contractual obligations have been satisfied and collection of the resulting receivable is reasonably assured. Net sales are comprised of gross sales net of actual and estimated future returns, discounts and volume rebates. The total returns represent 8.8%, 7.7%, and 7.6% of the gross sales for the twelve months ended March 31, 2013, 2012, and 2011, respectively.

STOCK BASED COMPENSATION

The Company follows the provisions of the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 718-20, “Compensation – Stock Compensation Awards Classified as Equity”. ASC 718-20 requires all share-based payments to employees including grants of employee stock options, be measured at fair value and expensed in the consolidated statement of operations over the service period (generally the vesting period). The Company uses the Black-Scholes option valuation model to value stock options. Employee stock option compensation expense in fiscal years 2013, 2012 and 2011 includes the estimated fair value of options granted, amortized on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period for the entire portion of the award. For the years ended March 31, 2013, 2012 and 2011, the stock option expense was $7,277, $18,530 and $12,592, respectively.

The fair value of each option grant was estimated on the date of the grant using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model with the assumptions outlined below. The expected volatility is based upon historical volatility of our stock and other contributing factors. The expected term is based upon observation of actual time elapsed between date of grant and exercise of options for all employees. Previously such assumptions were determined based on historical data.

⋅

For the year ended March 31, 2013: expected dividend yield 0%, risk-free interest rate of 0.14%, volatility 304.7% and expected term of one year.

⋅

For the year ended March 31, 2012: expected dividend yield 0%, risk-free interest rate of 0.19%, volatility 341.4% and expected term of one year.

⋅

For the year ended March 31, 2011: expected dividend yield 0%, risk-free interest rate of 0.22% to 0.30%, volatility 283.9% and expected term of one year.

ADVERTISING

Costs incurred for producing and publishing advertising of the Company are charged to operations the first time the advertising takes place. The Company has entered into cooperative advertising agreements with its major customers that specifically indicated that the customer has to spend the cooperative advertising fund upon the occurrence of mutually agreed events. The percentage of the cooperative advertising allowance ranges from 2% to 7% of the purchase. The customers have to advertise the Company's products in the customer's catalog, local newspaper and other advertising media. The customer must submit the proof of the performance (such as a copy of the advertising showing the Company’s products) to the Company to request for the allowance. The customer does not have the ability to spend the allowance at their discretion. The Company believes that the identifiable benefit from the cooperative advertising program and the fair value of the advertising benefit is equal or greater than the cooperative advertising expense. Advertising expense for the years ended March 31, 2013, 2012 and 2011 was $1,688,692, $1,089,512 and $685,416, respectively.

RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT COSTS

All research and development costs are charged to results of operations as incurred. These expenses are shown as a component of selling, general and administrative expenses in the consolidated statements of operations. For the years ended March 31, 2013, 2012 and 2011, these amounts totaled $70,870, $37,852 and $66,875, respectively.

FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

We have adopted FASB ASC 825, Financial Instruments, which requires disclosures of information about the fair value of certain financial instruments for which it is practicable to estimate that value. For purposes of this disclosure, the fair value of a financial instrument is the amount at which the instrument could be exchanged in a current transaction between willing parties, other than in a forced sale or liquidation.

The carrying amounts of the Company's short-term financial instruments, including accounts receivable, accounts payable, obligations to clients for returns and allowances, warranty provision, accrued expenses and net due to related parties approximates fair value due to the relatively short period to maturity for these instruments.

INCOME TAXES

The Company follows the provisions of FASB ASC 740 "Accounting for Income Taxes." Under the asset and liability method of ASC 740, deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributed to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax base. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. Under ASC 740, the effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date. If it is more likely than not that some portion of a deferred tax asset will not be realized, a valuation allowance is recognized. Prior to the fiscal year ended March 31, 2013, the Company recognized a valuation allowance against the entire amount of the deferred tax asset.

F-8

During the fiscal year ended March 31, 2013, the Company reversed a portion of the valuation allowance as the Company determined that it is more likely than not that the deferred tax asset would be realized. As a result, approximately $1.6 million of the valuation allowance was reversed during the fiscal year ended March 31, 2013, recognizing an approximate tax benefit of $1.6 million. As of March 31, 2013 and March 31, 2012, The Singing Machine had gross deferred tax assets of approximately $3.2 million and $3.9 million, respectively, against which the Company recorded valuation allowances totaling approximately $1.6 million and $3.9 million, respectively.

The Company also follows the provisions in FASB ASC 740, Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes. ASC 740 defines a recognition threshold and measurement attribute for financial statement recognition and measurements of tax positions taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. As of March 31, 2013 this position did not result in any adjustment to the Company’s provision for income taxes. Additionally, in accordance with FASB ASC 710, the Company’s policy is to recognize interest or penalties related to income tax matters in the provision for income taxes. The Company currently has no liabilities recorded for accrued interest or penalties related to uncertain tax positions.

As of March 31, 2013, the Company is subject to U.S. Federal income tax examinations for the tax years ended March 31, 2010 through March 31, 2013.

LONG-LIVED ASSETS

The Company reviews long-lived assets for impairment whenever circumstances and situations change such that there is an indication that the carrying amounts may not be recoverable. If the undiscounted future cash flows attributable to the related assets are less than the carrying amount, the carrying amounts are reduced to fair value and an impairment loss is recognized in accordance with FASB ASC 360-10-05, "Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets."

PROPERTY AND EQUIPMENT

Property and equipment are stated at cost, less accumulated depreciation and amortization. Expenditures for repairs and maintenance are charged to expense as incurred. Depreciation is provided for in amounts sufficient to relate the cost of depreciable assets to their estimated useful lives using accelerated and straight-line methods.

CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS

The Company considers all highly liquid investments with maturities of three months or less at the time of purchase to be cash equivalents. Cash and cash equivalent balances at March 31, 2013 and March 31, 2012 were $1,652,996 and $267,465, respectively. On April 29, 2013 the Company issued a standby letter of credit in the amount of $131,068 to satisfy terms of a security deposit requirement of a new California warehouse lease agreement executed in March 2013. The Company was required to fund a restricted certificate of deposit in the amount of $137,621 as collateral for the standby letter of credit.

SHIPPING AND HANDLING COSTS

Shipping and handling costs are classified as a component of selling expenses and those billed to customers are recorded as a reduction of expense in the statement of operations.

RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

In December 2011, the FASB issued ASU 2011-11, regarding d isclosures about offsetting assets and liabilities. This update requires entities to disclose both gross and net information about instruments and transactions eligible for offset in the statement of financial position and instruments and transactions subject to an agreement similar to a master netting arrangement. Disclosures are required for derivatives, sale and repurchase agreements and reverse sale and repurchase agreements, and securities borrowing and securities lending arrangements. This update was effective for annual reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2013, and interim periods within those annual periods. The adoption of ASU 2011-11did not have any impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

There were net additional amounts due from other Starlight Group companies totaling $55,784 related to other expenses provided to us by these companies.

NOTE 6 - OBLIGATIONS TO CLIENTS FOR RETURNS AND ALLOWANCES

Due to the seasonality of the business and length of time clients are given to return defective product, it is not uncommon for clients to accumulate credits from the Company’s sales and allowance programs that are in excess of unpaid invoices in accounts receivable. All credit balances in clients’ accounts receivable are reclassified to obligations to clients for returns and allowances in current liabilities on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. Client requests for payment of a credit balance are reclassified from obligations to clients for returns and allowances to accounts payable on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. When new invoices are processed prior to settlement of the credit balance and the client accepts settlement of open credits with new invoices, then the excess of new invoices over credits are netted in accounts receivable. As of the periods ended March 31, 2013 and March 31, 2012 obligations to clients for returns and allowances reclassified from accounts receivable were $376,289 and $242,379, respectively. There were credit amounts requested by clients to be paid for the periods ended March 31, 2012 and March 31, 2011 in the amounts of $636,474 and $0, respectively and accordingly these amounts were reclassified from obligations to clients for returns and allowances to accounts payable.

NOTE 7 – FINANCING

On October 19, 2012, the Company executed a two-year Accounts Receivable Ledgered Line of Credit Facility (“line of credit”) with Crestmark Bank (“Crestmark”) of Troy, Michigan which allows the Company to receive an advance of up to 70% of qualified accounts receivable. The line of credit agreement has a two year term which expires on October 19, 2014. The outstanding loan balance on the line of credit cannot exceed $5,000,000 during our peak selling season between August 2 and February 14 and cannot exceed $500,000 between February 15 and August 1 of each year that the agreement is in effect. The Company has agreed to pledge all of its domestic accounts receivable shipped from North America (except drop shipment invoices) to Crestmark and will assume all of the credit risk on accounts receivable pledged to Crestmark.

F-10

Interest on the line of credit and discounting charges on accounts receivable advances is accrued at a rate of 2% per annum over the prime rate as published by the Wall Street Journal and at no time shall the effective rate be less than 5.25% per annum. During the fiscal years ended March 31, 2013, 2012 and 2011 the Company incurred interest expense of $28,714, $0 and $0, respectively on amounts borrowed against the line of credit. There is a 1% commission fee of the gross invoice amount on all domestic accounts receivable pledged. For the fiscal years ended March 31, 2013, 2012 and 2011 the Company incurred commission fees on pledged receivables in the amount of $126,781, $0 and $0, respectively. There were no amounts outstanding on the line of credit as of the years ended March 31, 2013 and 2012. The credit facility is secured with all assets of the Company as well as related-party debt subordination agreements totaling $2,500,000 from Ram Light Management, Ltd. in the amount of $1,683,247 and Starlight Marketing Development, Ltd. in the amount of $816,753.

NOTE 8 - COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

LEGAL MATTERS

Management is currently not aware of any legal proceedings.

INCOME TAXES

In a letter dated July 21, 2008 the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) notified International SMC (HK) Limited “ISMC (HK)”, a former foreign subsidiary, of an unpaid tax balance on Income Tax Return of a Foreign Corporation (Form 1120-F) for the period ending March 31, 2003. According to the notice ISMC (HK) has an unpaid balance due in the amount of $241,639 that includes an interest assessment of $74,125. ISMC (HK) was sold in its entirety by the Company on September 25, 2006 to a British Virgin Islands company (“Purchaser”). The sale and purchase agreement with the Purchaser of ISMC (HK) specifies that the Purchaser would ultimately be responsible for any liabilities, including tax matters. On June 3, 2009 the IRS filed a federal tax lien in the amount of approximately $170,000 against ISMC (HK) under ISMC (HK)’s federal Tax ID. Management sought independent legal counsel to assess the potential liability, if any, on the Company. In a memorandum from independent counsel, the conclusion based on the facts presented was that the IRS would not prevail against the Company for collection of the ISMC (HK) income tax liability based on:

⋅

The Internal Revenue Service’s asserted position that the Company is not the taxpayer.

⋅

The 1120- F tax liability was recorded under the taxpayer identification number belonging to ISMC and not the Company’s taxpayer identification number

⋅

The IRS would be barred from recovery since it failed to assess or issue a notice of levy within the three year statute of limitations

Based on the conclusion reached in the legal memorandum, management does not believe that the Company will have any further liability and has not accrued any liability in this matter.

LEASES

The Company has entered into various operating lease agreements for office and warehouse facilities in Fort Lauderdale, Florida, City of Industry, California and Macau. The leases expire at varying dates. The lease for the existing warehouse facilities in California expires on April 30, 2013 and will not be renewed. Rent expense for the years ended March 31, 2013, 2012 and 2011 was $731,907, $800,198 and $773,964, respectively . On March 8, 2013 we executed a new lease for approximately 86,000 square feet of warehouse space in Ontario, California which will commence on June 1, 2013. The lease will expire on August 31, 2020 (term of 87 months) and includes a provision for the abatement of the first three months base rent in the amount of $113,412 which will be amortized over the life of the lease.

In addition, the Company maintains various warehouse equipment and computer equipment operating leases.

Future minimum lease payments under property and equipment leases with terms exceeding one year as of March 31, 2013 are as follows:

Such fees have been offset against rent expense in the consolidated statements of operations.

NOTE 9 - SHAREHOLDERS’ EQUITY

COMMON STOCK ISSUANCES

During the years ended March 31, 2013, 2012, and 2011, the Company issued the following common stock shares:

2013:

On January 24, 2013 the Company issued 68,181 shares of its common stock to our Board of Directors at $.11 per share, pursuant to our annual director compensation plan.

2012:

On December 2, 2011 the Company issued 125,001 shares of its common stock to our Board of Directors at $.06 per share, pursuant to our annual director compensation plan.

2011:

On August 31, 2010 the Company issued 249,999 shares of its common stock to our Board of Directors at $.03 per share, pursuant to our annual director compensation plan.

EARNINGS PER SHARE

In accordance with FASB ASC 210, "Earnings per Share", basic net (loss) earnings per share are computed by dividing the net earnings (loss) for the year by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding. Diluted earnings per share is computed by dividing net earnings (loss) for the year by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding including the effect of common stock equivalents.

For the fiscal year ended March 31, 2013 there were common stock equivalents to purchase 1,251,380 shares of common stock of which 820,000 were included in the computation of diluted earnings per share because their exercise prices were less than the average market price of the Company’s common stock for the period. For the years ended March 31, 2012 and 2011, common stock equivalents to purchase 700,000 and 551,380 shares of stock, respectively, were not included in the computation of diluted earnings per share because the exercise prices were greater than the average market price of the Company’s common stock for the period.

STOCK OPTIONS

On June 1, 2001, the Board of Directors approved the 2001 Stock Option Plan (`Plan"), which replaced the 1994 Stock Option Plan, as amended. The Plan was developed to provide a means whereby directors and selected employees, officers, consultants, and advisors of the Company may be granted incentive or non-qualified stock options to purchase common stock of the Company. As of March 31, 2013, the Plan had expired and no shares were available to be issued nor were any additional shares issued from the plan in Fiscal 2013.

The Company adopted ASC 713-10 for the reporting periods ending after June 15, 2005 and thereafter has recognized the fair value of the stock option as part of the selling, general and administration expense. Accordingly, no compensation cost has been recognized for options issued under the Plan in periods prior to June 15, 2005. A summary of stock option activity for each of the years presented is summarized below.

NOTE 10 - INCOME TAXES

The Company files separate tax returns in the United States and in Macau. The Macau Subsidiary has received approval from the Macau government to operate its business as a Macau Offshore Company (MOC), and is exempt from the Macau income tax. For the fiscal years ended March 31, 2013, 2012 and 2011, the Macau Subsidiary recorded no tax provision. The Company has now exhausted its ability to carry back any further losses and therefore will only be able to recognize tax benefits to the extent that it has future taxable income.

Due to the change of control of the Company, the net operating loss carry over is subject to the IRS Section 382 limitation. As of March 31, 2013, 2012 and 2011, The Singing Machine had net deferred tax assets before valuation allowances of approximately $3.2 million, $3.9 million, and $3.5 million, respectively, against which the Company recorded valuation allowances totaling approximately $1.6 million, $3.9 million, and $3.5 million, respectively.

The income tax provision (benefit) for federal, foreign, and state income taxes in the consolidated statement of operations consisted of the following components for 2013, 2012 and 2011:

	2013		2012		2011

	$	1,521,476	$	463,116	$	(619,548)

F-13

The actual tax expense differs from the "expected" tax expense for the years ended March 31, 2013, 2012 and 2011 (computed by applying the U.S. Federal Corporate tax rate of 34 percent to income before taxes) as follows:

	2013		2012		2011

The tax effects of temporary differences that give rise to significant portions of deferred tax assets and liabilities are as follows:

	2013		2012		2011

Deferred tax assets:
Federal net operating loss carryforward	$	2,189,622	$	2,579,924	$	2,141,339

Net deferred tax assets	$	1,619,459	$	-	$	-

Due to economic conditions prior to the fiscal year ended March 31, 2013, the Company believed that it was more likely than not that the benefit from the net deferred tax assets would not be realized, and established a valuation allowance on the deferred tax assets for the entire balance.

During the fiscal year ended March 31, 2013, the Company released a portion of the valuation allowance. The release of the valuation allowance was determined in accordance with the provisions of ASC 740, which require an assessment of both positive and negative evidence when determining whether it is more likely than not that deferred tax assets are recoverable. The analysis performed to assess the realizability of the deferred tax assets included an evaluation of the pattern and timing of the reversals of temporary differences and the length of carryback and carry forward periods available under the applicable federal and state laws; and the amount and timing of future taxable income. The analysis indicated that it is more likely than not that at least 50% of the deferred tax asset recorded will be realized. As a result, approximately $1.6 million of the valuation allowance was released during the fiscal year ended March 31, 2013, recognizing an approximate tax benefit of $1.6 million.

F-14

At March 31, 2013, the Company has federal tax net operating loss carry forwards in the amount of approximately $6.4 million that expire beginning in the year 2027. In addition, the Company has state tax net operating loss carry forwards in the amount of approximately $8.9 million that expire beginning in 2015. Net operating loss carry forward amounts and their year of expiration are as follows:

Year of	NOL		NOL
Expiration	Federal		State

2013	$	-	$	-
2014		-		-
2015		-		1,984,323

2018 and beyond		6,440,060		6,918,172

	$	6,440,060	$	8,902,495

The Company is no longer subject to income tax examinations for fiscal years before 2010.

NOTE 11 - SEGMENT INFORMATION

The Company operates in one segment and maintains its records accordingly. The majority of sales to customers outside of the United States are made by the Macau Subsidiary until its date of sale. Sales by geographic region for the period presented are as follows:

	2013		2012		2011

North America	$	34,068,559	$	25,313,446	$	18,925,399
Europe		369,215		630,386		240,580
	$	34,437,774	$	25,943,832	$	19,165,979

The geographic area of sales is based primarily on the location where the product is delivered.

NOTE 12 - EMPLOYEE BENEFIT PLANS

The Company has a 401(k) plan for its employees to which the Company makes contributions at rates dependent on the level of each employee's contributions. Contributions made by the Company are limited to the maximum allowable for federal income tax purposes. The amounts charged to operations for contributions to this plan and administrative costs during the years ended March 31, 2013, 2012, and 2011 totaled $30,589, $24,933 and $18,660, respectively. The amounts are included as a component of general and administrative expense in the accompanying Consolidated Statements of Operations. The Company does not provide any post employment benefits to retirees.

NOTE 13 - CONCENTRATIONS OF CREDIT RISK, CUSTOMERS, AND SUPPLIERS

The Company derives a majority of its revenues from retailers of products in the United States. Financial instruments, which potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk, consist of accounts receivable. The Company's allowance for doubtful accounts is based upon management's estimates and historical experience and reflects the fact that accounts receivable are concentrated with several large customers whose credit worthiness have been evaluated by management. At March 31, 2013, 81% of accounts receivable were due from three customers in North America. Accounts receivable from customers that individually owed over 10% of total accounts receivable was 53%, 18% and 11% at March 31, 2013. Accounts receivable from customers that individually owed over 10% of total accounts receivable was 35%, 21% and 18% at March 31, 2012. The Company performs ongoing credit evaluations of its customers.

Revenues derived from five customers in 2013, 2012, and 2011 were 66%, 70% and 74% of total revenues, respectively. Revenues derived from top three customers in 2013, 2012 and 2011 as percentage of the total revenue were 23%, 21% and 13%; 29%, 17% and 15%; and 29%, 25% and 9%, respectively. The loss of any of these customers can have an adverse impact on the financial position of the Company.

Net sales derived from the Macau Subsidiary aggregated $12.5 million in 2013, $11.8 million in 2012 and $5.0 million in 2011.

F-15

The Company is dependent upon foreign companies for the manufacture of all of its electronic products. The Company's arrangements with manufacturers are subject to the risk of doing business abroad, such as import duties, trade restrictions, work stoppages, foreign currency fluctuations, political instability, and other factors, which could have an adverse impact on its business. The Company believes that the loss of any one or more of their suppliers would not have a long-term material adverse effect because other manufacturers with whom the Company does business would be able to increase production to fulfill their requirements. However, the loss of certain suppliers in the short-term could adversely affect business until alternative supply arrangements are secured.

During fiscal years 2013, 2012, and 2011, manufacturers in the People's Republic of China ("China") accounted for approximately 99% of the Company's total product purchases, including all of the Company's hardware purchases.
