BUSINESS

Emergent Group Inc. (“Emergent”) is the parent company of PRI Medical Technologies, Inc. (“PRI Medical”), its wholly owned subsidiary. Emergent and PRI Medical are referred to collectively hereinafter as the “Company” or “we”. PRI Medical provides mobile laser/surgical services, along with technical support, on a per procedure basis to hospitals, out-patient surgery centers, and physicians' offices.

2.	BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of Emergent have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC"). Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2009. In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments, which are of a normal recurring nature, necessary for a fair presentation of the results for the periods presented.

The results of operations presented for the three and ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2010 and 2009 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for any other interim period or any future fiscal year.

Principles of Consolidation

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Emergent and its wholly owned subsidiaries. Also, in accordance with the guidance issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”), the Company has accounted for its non-controlling interest in investments in certain limited liability companies under the full consolidation method. All significant intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated through consolidation.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of the condensed consolidated financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of income and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ significantly from those estimates.

Accounts Receivable and Concentration of Business and Credit Risks

We market our services primarily to hospitals, out-patient centers and physicians throughout 16 states located in the Western and Eastern United States. Our equipment rental and technician services are subject to competition from other similar businesses. Our accounts receivable represent financial instruments with potential credit risk. We offer credit terms and credit limits to most of our customers based on the creditworthiness of such customers. However, we retain the right to place such customers on credit hold should their account become delinquent. We maintain an allowance for doubtful accounts for estimated losses should customers fail to make required payments. In addition, we monitor the age of customer account balances, historical bad debt experience, customer creditworthiness, customer specific information, and changes in payment patterns when making estimates of the collectibility of trade receivables. Accounts receivable are written off when all collection attempts have failed. Our allowance for doubtful accounts will be increased if circumstances warrant. Based on the information available, management believes that our net accounts receivable are collectible.

Inventory

Inventory consists of finished goods primarily used in connection with the delivery of our mobile surgical equipment rental and services business. Inventory is stated at the lower of cost or market, on a first-in, first-out basis.

Stock-Based Compensation

On May 5, 2009, the Board approved establishing an Employee Benefit and Compensation Plan (the "2009 Plan") covering 300,000 shares with an effective date of June 29, 2009, the date of shareholder ratification of the 2009 Plan. The 2009 Plan will terminate and no awards may be granted after June 28, 2019. In April 2002, the Company adopted the 2002 Employee Benefit and Consulting Services Compensation Plan (the “2002 Plan”) under which we may issue a total of 650,000 options and awards. Our 2009 and 2002 Plans are substantially identical, except as to the number of shares covered by each respective plan and the 2009 Plan permits issuance of incentive stock options. The Plans were established for the purpose of providing incentives to key employees, officers, directors, and consultants of the Company who provide significant services to the Company. The 2009 and 2002 Plans are collectively referred to herein as the "Plans." No stock options have been issued under our 2009 Plan.

Compensation costs related to stock options issued under the Plans are determined in accordance with guidance issued by the FASB. We determine the fair value of option grants based on the Black-Scholes option-pricing model using the modified prospective method. Under this method, compensation cost recognized during the three and ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2010 and 2009 includes compensation cost for all share-based payments granted prior to but not yet vested as of January 1, 2006, and all grants subsequent to that date, based on the grant date fair value, which is amortized over the remaining vesting period for such options.

Earnings Per Share

Basic earnings per share is computed by dividing earnings available to common shareholders by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding. Diluted earnings per share is computed similar to basic earnings per share except that the denominator is increased to include the number of additional common shares that would have been outstanding if the potential common share equivalents had been issued and if the additional common shares were dilutive. Common equivalent shares are excluded from the computation if their effect is anti-dilutive.

Recent Accounting Pronounments

In January 2010, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued ASU 2010-06, Improving Disclosures about Fair Value Measurements (“ASU 2010-06”). ASU 2010-06 requires additional disclosures about fair value measurements including transfers in and out of Levels 1 and 2 and more disaggregation for the different types of financial instruments. This ASU is effective for annual and interim reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2009 for most of the new disclosures and for periods beginning after December 15, 2010 for the new Level 3 disclosures. Comparative disclosures are not required in the first year the disclosures are required. We did not have any significant transfers in or out of Level 1 and Level 2 fair value measurements during the three months ended September 30, 2010.

In August 2009, the FASB issued ASU 2009-15, which changes the fair value accounting for liabilities. These changes clarify existing guidance that in circumstances in which a quoted price in an active market for the identical liability is not available, an entity is required to measure fair value using either a valuation technique that uses a quoted price of either a similar liability or a quoted price of an identical or similar liability when traded as an asset, or another valuation technique that is consistent with the principles of fair value measurements, such as an income approach (e.g., present value technique). This guidance also states that both a quoted price in an active market for the identical liability and a quoted price for the identical liability when traded as an asset in an active market when no adjustments to the quoted price of the asset are required are Level 1 input fair value measurements. This ASU became effective for us on January 1, 2010. Adoption of this ASU did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

In June 2009, the FASB issued changes to the accounting for variable interest entities. These changes require an enterprise to perform an analysis to determine whether the enterprise’s variable interest gives it a controlling financial interest in a variable interest entity; to require ongoing reassessments of whether an enterprise is the primary beneficiary of a variable interest entity; to eliminate the quantitative approach previously required for determining the primary beneficiary of a variable interest entity; to add an additional reconsideration event for determining whether an entity is a variable interest entity when any changes in facts and circumstances occur such that holders of the equity investment at risk, as a group, lose the power from voting rights or similar rights of those investments to direct the activities of the entity that most significantly impact the entity’s economic performance; and to require enhanced disclosures that will provide users of financial statements with more transparent information about an enterprise’s involvement in a variable interest entity. These changes became effective for us beginning on January 1, 2010. The adoption of this change did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

~~EMERGENT~~In ~~GROUP~~June ~~INC~~2009, the FASB issued accounting guidance contained within ASC 810, Consolidation (“ASC 810”), regarding the consolidation of variable interest entities (formerly SFAS No. 167, Amendments to FASB Interpretation No. 46(R)). ASC 810 is intended to improve financial reporting by providing additional guidance to companies involved with variable interest entities and ~~SUBSIDIARIES~~by requiring additional disclosures about a company’s involvement in variable interest entities. This standard is effective for interim and annual periods beginning after November 15, 2009. Our adoption of this ASC on January 1, 2010 had no material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

~~NOTES~~In TOJune ~~CONDENSED~~2009, ~~CONSOLIDATED~~the ~~FINANCIAL~~FASB ~~STATEMENTS~~issued ASC 860, Transfers and Servicing (“ASC 860”), (formerly SFAS No. 166, Accounting for Transfers of Financial Assets). ASC 860 requires more information about transfers of financial assets and where companies have continuing exposure to the risk related to transferred financial assets. It eliminates the concept of a qualifying special purpose entity, changes the requirements for derecognizing financial assets, and requires additional disclosure. This standard is effective for interim and annual periods beginning after November 15, 2009. We adopted this standard on January 1, 2010. The adoption of this standard had no material impact on our financial statements.

In June 2009, the FASB issued changes to the accounting for transfers of financial assets. These changes remove the concept of a qualifying special-purpose entity and remove the exception from the application of variable interest accounting to variable interest entities that are qualifying special-purpose entities; limits the circumstances in which a transferor derecognizes a portion or component of a financial asset; defines a participating interest; requires a transferor to recognize and initially measure at fair value all assets obtained and liabilities incurred as a result of a transfer accounted for as a sale; and requires enhanced disclosure; among others. These changes became effective for us on January 1, 2010 and did not have a material impact on our financial statements.

3. DEBT OBLIGATIONS

The Company maintains a $1.5 million line of credit under a revolving credit agreement (the “Agreement”) with a bank which is collateralized by substantially all unencumbered assets of the Company. Advances under the Agreement bear interest at the prime rate, plus one-half of one percent (3.75% as of ~~June~~September 30, 2010), with interest payable monthly. Subject to the terms of the Agreement, the Company may request and repay advances from time to time through the expiration date. The Agreement includes certain financial covenants that must be met including a covenant that for a period of not less than thirty (30) consecutive days during the loan term, that no loan amount will be outstanding under the Agreement. The Agreement expires on December 3, 2010. As of ~~June~~September 30, 2010 the Company was in compliance with the terms of its revolving credit agreement and no amounts have been drawn under this facility.

In connection with an acquisition of assets during 2008, we entered into an equipment lease financing loan with a bank for $1,750,000. The equipment lease is collateralized by the acquired assets and other assets of the Company and provides for monthly payments of principal and interest of $46,378 commencing on September 1, 2008 over 42 months, with interest at 6.4%. The lease financing agreement also requires the Company to meet certain financial covenants over the loan term. As of ~~June~~September 30, 2010 the Company was in compliance with terms of this loan agreement.

The Company incurred total net interest expense of $7564,~~286~~410 and $8785,~~503~~692 for the three months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2010 and 2009, respectively and $~~146~~210,~~086~~496 and $~~175~~261,~~989~~681 for the ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2010 and 2009, respectively.

4. STOCK OPTION PLANS

The Company issues stock options and awards for the purpose of providing incentives to key employees, officers, directors, and consultants of the Company who provide significant services to the Company. Options and awards granted under the Plans generally vest over five years and are subject to forfeiture if the employee terminates prior to vesting. As of ~~June~~September 30, 2010 there have been no options or awards granted under our 2009 Plan. With regard to our 2002 Plan, there are 650,000 common shares authorized for grant and such options will not be granted for a term of more than ten years from the date of grant. The 2002 Plan expires in March 2012. Incentive stock options granted under the 2002 Plan are non-statutory stock options. As of ~~June~~September 30, 2010, the number of shares reserved for future awards was 5455,~~835~~430, which is net of the 45,000 and 53,500 restricted award shares granted in March 2010 and April 2009 under the 2002 Plan, respectively, as discussed below.

During the ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2010 and 2009 we issued -0- and 1530,~~500~~000, stock options, respectively, under our 2002 Plan to various employees. Such options vest in equal installments over five years and unvested options are subject to forfeiture should the respective employee leave the company. Compensation costs related to total stock options outstanding for the three months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2010 and 2009 were $2,~~823~~595 and $43,~~299~~858 respectively, and $68,~~119~~715 and $711,~~562~~420 for the ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2010 and 2009, respectively.

As of ~~June~~September 30, 2010, the total unrecognized compensation cost related to unvested stock options was $3633,~~499~~903, which is to be recognized over a remaining weighted average vesting period of approximately 3.309 years.

In addition to options granted under the 2002 Plan, as of ~~June~~September 30, 2010, we have 424,997 restricted award shares issued and outstanding of which 328,497 were issued outside of the 2002 Plan and 205,900 are fully vested. Award shares vest in equal installments over five years from the date of issuance. Such award shares are issued from time to time to executive officers, directors and employees of the Company. Non-vested award shares are subject to forfeiture in the event that the recipient is no longer employed by the Company at the time of vesting, subject to the Board’s right to waive the forfeiture provisions. Compensation expense related to such shares is determined as of the issuance date based on the fair value of the shares issued and is amortized over the related vesting period. In March 2010 and April 2009 we issued 45,000 and 53,500 restricted shares under the 2002 Plan, respectively. The total grant date fair value related to the restricted award shares issued in March 2010 and April 2009 was $380,700 and $363,265, respectively, representing the number of restricted ~~shared~~shares issued times the closing prices of $8.46 and $6.79 per share, respectively.

Compensation costs are amortized over the vesting period of five years. Compensation expense related to outstanding restricted award shares was $7475,~~817~~451 and $5859,~~996~~421 for the three months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2010 and 2009, respectively, and $~~136~~211,~~068~~515 and $99159,~~653~~074 for the ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2010 and 2009, respectively.

The services of the Company’s Chairman and Chief Executive Officer are contracted through BJH Management for a monthly fee of $15,167. In March 2010, the services agreement with BJH Management was extended to June 30, 2013.

The Company’s Chairman and Chief Executive Officer maintains his primary office in New York. In this regard, the Company reimbursed BJH Management, LLC (“BJH”), a company owned by the Company’s Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, for office rent and other reimbursable expenses totaling $1819,~~720~~492 and $1718,~~520~~073 for the three months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2010 and 2009, respectively, and $3655,~~458~~950 and $3452,~~100~~173 for the ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2010 and 2009, respectively.

7. LIMITED LIABILITY COMPANIES

In connection with expanding its business, PRI Medical participates with others in the formation of Limited Liability Companies (“LLCs”) in which it will acquire either a non-controlling or controlling-interest and the remaining interests are held by other investors. These LLCs acquire certain medical equipment for use in their respective business activities which generally focus on surgical procedures. The LLCs will acquire medical equipment for rental purposes under equipment financing leases. The third party investors in each respective LLC generally provide the lease financing company with individual proportionate lease guarantees based on their respective ownership percentages in the LLCs. In addition, PRI Medical will provide such financing companies with its corporate guarantee based on its respective ownership interest in each LLC. In certain instances, PRI Medical has provided such financing companies with an overall corporate guarantee in connection with equipment financing transactions. In such instances, the individual investors in each respective LLC will generally indemnify PRI Medical against losses, if any, incurred in connection with its corporate guarantee. As of ~~June~~September 30, 2010, PRI Medical holds interests in seven active LLCs. We previously held interests in thirteen LLCs; however, during the second half of 2009, we ceased operations in six LLCs and began the wind-down and dissolution process as a result of regulatory changes.

For the three and ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2010 and 2009, in accordance with guidance issued by the FASB, the Company accounted for its equity investments in LLCs in which it holds a non-controlling interest under the full consolidation method whereby transactions between the Company and LLCs have been eliminated through consolidation.

Critical Accounting Policies

Our discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations are based upon our financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States. The preparation of financial statements requires managers to make estimates and disclosures on the date of the financial statements. On an on-going basis, we evaluate our estimates including, but not limited to, those related to revenue recognition, inventory valuation and property and equipment. We use authoritative pronouncements, historical experience and other assumptions as the basis for making judgments. Actual results could differ from those estimates. We believe that the following critical accounting policies affect our more significant judgments and estimates in the preparation of our financial statements.

Revenue Recognition. Revenue is recognized once our mobile rental and technicians services are performed and billable. We are required to make judgments based on historical experience and future expectations, as to the realizability of goods and services billed to our customers. These judgments are required to assess the propriety of the recognition of revenue based on Staff Accounting Bulletin (“SAB”) No. 104, “Revenue Recognition,” and related guidance. We make such assessments based on the following factors: (a) customer-specific information, and (b) historical experience for issues not yet identified.

Inventory Valuation. We are required to make judgments based on historical experience and future expectations as to the realizability of our inventory. We make these assessments based on the following factors: (a) existing orders and usage, (b) age of the inventory, and (c) historical experience.

Property and Equipment. We are required to make judgments based on historical experience and future expectations as to the realizability of our property and equipment. We made these assessments based on the following factors: (a) the estimated useful lives of such assets, (b) technological changes in our industry, and (c) the changing needs of our customers.

Comparison of the Three Months Ended ~~June~~September 30, 2010 to ~~June~~September 30, 2009

The Company generated revenues of $7,~~246~~594,~~842~~715 in 2010 compared to $7,~~788~~981,~~765~~464 in 2009. The decrease in revenues in 2010 of $~~541~~386,~~923~~749, or 75% is related to a decrease in revenues from our surgical procedures. The decrease in surgical revenues during the quarter may be attributable, in part, to current economic conditions whereby many individuals may have lost their healthcare coverage and as a result may be postponing medical procedures in the short-term.

Cost of goods sold was $4,~~392~~607,~~127~~609 in 2010 or 61% of revenues, compared to $4,~~625~~802,~~102~~495 or 5960% of revenues for 2009. Costs of goods sold primarily consist of payroll costs and related expenses for technicians, cost of disposables consumed, depreciation and amortization related to equipment, insurance costs and other operating costs incurred in rendering mobile medical equipment and technician services. The overall decrease in cost of goods sold of $~~232~~194,~~975~~886 or 54% for 2010 is due to the decrease in revenues for the period resulting in lower overall ~~disposable~~operating costs, including payroll and ~~equipment~~payroll ~~rental~~related costs ~~for the period~~, partially offset by increases in depreciation and amortization expenses of $5525,~~402~~339. The increase in depreciation and amortization expense relates to equipment ~~maintenance~~purchases ~~costs~~in of2010 ~~$37,421~~and 2009. ~~Other~~The net change in other cost categories ~~within~~included ~~the~~in cost of ~~good~~goods sold remained relatively consistent ~~with~~in ~~the~~2010 ~~prior~~compared ~~year~~to 2009.

Gross profit from operations was $2,~~854~~987,~~715~~106 in 2010, compared to $3,~~163~~178,~~663~~969 in 2009. Gross profit as a percentage of revenues was 39% for 2010 compared to 4140% for 2009. Gross profit margins after disposable costs will vary depending on the type of surgical procedure performed due to the fact that certain procedures require more expensive disposable items. In addition, gross profit margin rates will vary from period to period depending upon other factors including pricing considerations, and equipment and technician utilization rates. The gross profit margin for 2010 is not necessarily indicative of the gross profit margins that may be realized in future periods.

Selling, general, and administrative expenses were $1,~~495~~566,~~726~~503 and $1,~~496~~490,~~742~~174 for 2010 and 2009, respectively, or 21% and 19% of revenues, respectively. Such costs include, among others, payroll and related expenses, insurance costs and occupancy costs. Overall, the cost categories within selling, general and administrative expenses were relatively comparable for both 2010 and 2009.

Other income (expense) was $(1863,~~190~~432) in 2010 compared to $(6080,~~470~~116) in 2009. Other income (expense) includes interest income and expense, gains and losses on disposal of property and equipment, and other miscellaneous income and expense items. The net decrease in other income (expense) of $4216,~~280~~684 is primarily related to a ~~gain on disposal of equipment of $56,476 in 2010 compared to a gain of only $1,950 for 2009, a~~ decrease in net interest expense for 2010 of $1221,~~217~~282 primarily due to the continuing pay-down of lease obligations with higher interest rates and an increase in interest income, offset by a decrease of $245,~~463~~500 in ~~miscellaneous~~gain ~~income~~on disposal of property and equipment in 2010 compared to 2009.

The non-controlling interest (ownership interests held by third-parties) in net income of limited liability companies was $~~133~~174,~~993~~380 in 2010 compared to $~~163~~225,~~887~~023 in 2009. In 2010 and 2009, we held ownership interests in seven and thirteen entities, respectively. During mid to late 2009 we ceased operations in six LLCs and we began the wind-down and dissolution process. The decrease in non-controlling interest in earnings is related to the winding-down of operations for such LLCs. As of ~~June~~September 30, 2010 and 2009, in accordance with guidance issued by the FASB, the Company accounted for its equity investments in entities in which it holds a non-controlling interest under the full consolidation method.

Net income was $~~719~~710,~~517~~036 in 2010 compared to $~~869~~830,~~064~~656 in 2009. Provision for income taxes was $~~487~~472,~~289~~755 in 2010 compared to $~~573~~553,~~500~~000 in 2009. The provision for income taxes for both 2010 and 2009 is comprised of state and federal taxes, federal Alternative Minimum Taxes (AMT) and the utilization of deferred income tax assets. At December 31, 2009, the Company had net operating loss carryforwards of approximately $3.4 million for federal tax purposes, which is subject to certain limitations due to statutory ownership changes. Basic net income per share for 2010 and 2009 was $0.10 and $0.1312, respectively, while fully diluted net income per share for 2010 and 2009 was $0.10 and $0.12, respectively. Basic and fully diluted weighted average shares outstanding for 2010 were 6,~~856~~875,~~813~~040 and 7,~~068~~045,~~876~~049, respectively, and 6,~~725~~745,~~579~~663 and 7,089,~~544~~598 for 2009, respectively.

Comparison of the ~~Six~~Nine Months Ended ~~June~~September 30, 2010 to ~~June~~September 30, 2009

The Company generated revenues of $1422,~~620~~214,~~012~~727 in 2010 compared to $1523,~~123~~105,~~808~~272 in 2009. The decrease in revenues in 2010 of $~~503~~890,~~796~~545, or 34%, is primarily related to a decrease in surgical procedures, which may be attributable, in part, to current economic conditions whereby many individuals may have lost their healthcare coverage and as a result may be postponing medical procedures in the short-term.

Cost of goods sold was $813,~~858~~465,~~289~~898 in 2010 or 61% of revenues, compared to $913,~~036~~839,~~560~~056 or 60% of revenues for 2009. Costs of goods sold primarily consist of payroll costs and related expenses for technicians, cost of disposables consumed, depreciation and amortization related to equipment, insurance costs and other operating costs incurred in rendering mobile medical equipment and technician services. The overall decrease in cost of goods sold of $~~178~~373,~~271~~158 or 23% for 2010 is primarily related to the decrease in revenues during the period resulting in lower overall operating costs including disposable costs, payroll and ~~equipment~~payroll ~~rental~~related costs ~~for the period~~, partially offset by increases in depreciation and amortization expenses of $~~117~~157,~~835~~550 and equipment maintenance costs of $~~113~~131,~~355~~492. ~~Other cost categories within the cost of good sold remained relatively consistent with the prior year.~~ The increase in depreciation and amortization expense relates to equipment purchases in 2010 and 2009. The net change in other cost categories included in cost of goods sold remained relatively consistent in 2010 compared to 2009.

Gross profit from operations was $58,~~761~~748,~~723~~829 in 2010 compared to $69,~~087~~266,~~248~~216 in 2009. Gross profit as a percentage of revenues was 39% in 2010 compared to 40% in 2009. Gross margins after disposable costs will vary depending on the type of surgical procedure performed due to the fact that certain procedures require more expensive disposable items. In addition, gross margin rates will vary from period to period depending upon other factors including pricing considerations, and equipment and technician utilization rates. The gross margin for 2010 is not necessarily indicative of the margins that may be realized in future periods.

Selling, general, and administrative expenses in 2010 were $24,~~955~~522,~~732~~235 ~~and~~compared to $24,~~952~~442,~~164~~338 ~~for~~in ~~2010 and~~ 2009. Selling, ~~respectively~~general, orand ~~20%~~administrative expenses as a percentage of revenues were 20% for ~~both~~2010 ~~periods~~and 19% for 2009. Such costs include, among others, payroll and related expenses, insurance costs and occupancy costs. Overall, the cost categories within selling, general and administrative expenses were relatively comparable for both 2010 and 2009.

Other income (expense) was $~~109~~45,~~403~~971 in 2010 compared to $(~~143~~223,~~179~~295) in 2009. Other income (expense) includes interest income and expense, gains and losses on disposal of property and equipment, and other miscellaneous income and expense items. The net increase in other income (expense) of $~~252~~269,~~582~~266 is related to other income of $190,221 from affiliated entities related to equipment acquired from such entities in 2010 while no such income items were recorded in the prior year, an increase of $6156,~~773~~273 in gain on disposal of property and equipment in 2010, a decrease of $2951,~~903~~185 in net interest expense related to the continuing pay-down of lease obligations with higher interest rates and an increase in interest income, offset by a decrease of $2928,~~315~~413 in miscellaneous income in 2010 compared to 2009.

The minority interest (ownership interests held by third-parties) in net income of limited liability companies was $~~271~~446,~~897~~277 in 2010 compared to $~~372~~597,~~007~~030 in 2009. In 2010 and 2009, we held ownership interests in seven and thirteen entities, respectively. During mid to late 2009 we ceased operations in six LLCs and we began the wind-down and dissolution process. The decrease in non-controlling interest in earnings is related to the winding-down of operations for such LLCs. As of ~~June~~September 30, 2010 and 2009, in accordance with guidance issued by the FASB, the Company accounted for its equity investments in entities in which it holds a non-controlling interest under the full consolidation method.

Net income was $12,~~566~~276,~~208~~244 in 2010 compared to $12,~~568~~398,~~264~~919 in 2009. Provision for income taxes was $1,~~077~~550,~~289~~044 in 2010 as compared to $1,~~051~~604,634 in 2009. The provision for income taxes for both 2010 and 2009 is comprised of state and federal taxes, federal Alternative Minimum Taxes (AMT) and the utilization of deferred income tax assets. At December 31, 2009, the Company had net operating loss carryforwards of approximately $3.4 million for federal tax purposes, which is subject to certain limitations due to statutory ownership changes. Basic net income per share for 2010 and 2009 was $0.2333 and $0.2336, respectively, while fully diluted net income per share for 2010 and 2009 was $0.2232 and $0.2234, respectively. Basic and fully diluted weighted average shares outstanding for 2010 were 6,~~824~~841,~~338~~176 and 7,~~040~~020,~~846~~315, respectively, and 6,~~692~~710,~~057~~175 and 7,~~048~~059,~~247~~774 for 2009, respectively.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

The Company maintains a $1.5 million line of credit under a revolving credit agreement (the “Agreement”) with a bank which is collateralized by substantially all unencumbered assets of the Company. Advances under the Agreement bear interest at the prime rate, plus one-half of one percent (3.75% as of ~~June~~September 30, 2010), with interest payable monthly. Subject to the terms of the Agreement, the Company may request and repay advances from time to time through the expiration date. The Agreement includes certain financial covenants that must be met including a covenant that for a period of not less than thirty (30) consecutive days during the loan term, that no loan amount will be outstanding under the Agreement. The Agreement expires on December 3, 2010 and we are in the process of renewing the Agreement as of the filing of this Form 10-Q. AsIn addition, as of ~~June~~September 30, 2010 and the filing of this Form 10-Q, the Company was in compliance with the terms of its revolving credit agreement and no amounts have been drawn under this facility.

In connection with an acquisition of assets during 2008, we entered into an equipment lease financing loan with a bank for $1,750,000. The equipment lease is collateralized by the acquired assets and other assets of the Company and provides for monthly payments of principal and interest of $46,378 commencing on September 1, 2008 over 42 months, with interest at 6.4%. The lease financing agreement also requires Emergent to meet certain financial covenants over the loan term. As of ~~June~~September 30, 2010 and the filing of this Form 10-Q, the Company was in compliance with terms of this loan agreement.

We anticipate that our future liquidity requirements will arise from the need to finance our accounts receivable and inventories, and from the need to fund our current debt and lease obligations and capital expenditures. The primary sources of funding for such requirements will be cash generated from operations, borrowings under debt facilities and trade payables, and raising additional capital from the sale of equity or other securities. The Company believes that it can generate sufficient cash flow from these sources to fund its on-going operations for at least the next twelve months.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

Market risk is the risk of loss arising from adverse changes in market rates and prices, such as interest rates, foreign currency exchange rates and commodity prices. Our primary exposure to market risk is interest rate risk associated with our short term money market investments. The Company does not have any financial instruments held for hedging or other speculative purposes and does not invest in derivative financial instruments, interest rate swaps or other investments that alter interest rate exposure.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

We maintain disclosure controls and procedures, which are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the reports we file or submit under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commissions rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our CEO and CFO, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our CEO and CFO, an evaluation was performed on the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this quarterly report.
