NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(unaudited)

November 30, 2005

1. Basis of presentation

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of Summa Industries (the “Company”) have been condensed in certain respects and should, therefore, be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes related thereto contained in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended August 31, 2005. In the opinion of the Company, these financial statements contain all adjustments necessary for a fair presentation for the interim period, all of which were normal recurring adjustments. The results of operations for the three ~~months~~month and nine month periods ended ~~November~~May 3031, ~~2005~~2006 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year ending August 31, 2006.

Recent accounting pronouncements

In December 2004, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 123R, “Share-Based Payments,” which requires companies to recognize in the income statement the grant-date fair value of stock options and equity-based compensation issued to employees. Prior to its adoption in the first quarter of fiscal 2006, the Company reported equity based compensation in accordance ~~with~~ with Accounting Principles Board (“APB”) Opinion No. 25 and Financial Interpretation No. 44, and accordingly, no compensation expense was recognized in the financial statements prior to September 1, 2005. The pro forma effect of equity-based compensation under SFAS No. 123, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation,” for the period prior to the adoption of SFAS No, . 123R and the expense charged to earnings since its adoption are disclosed in Note 5, below.

In ~~November~~June ~~2004~~2005, the FASB issued SFAS No. ~~151~~154, “~~Inventory~~Accounting Changes ~~Costs-an~~and ~~amendment~~Error ofCorrections, ~~Accounting Research~~a ~~Bulletin~~Replacement ~~(“ARB”)~~of ~~43,~~APB ~~Chapter~~No. 20 4and FAS No.3” ~~This~~. SFAS ~~statement~~No. 154 ~~amends~~provides guidance on the ~~guidance~~accounting for and reporting of inaccounting ~~ARB~~changes Noand error calculations. ~~43,~~ ~~Chapter~~It 4establishes, ~~“Inventory Pricing~~unless impracticable,” toretrospective ~~clarify~~application as the required method for reporting a change in accounting ~~for~~principle ~~abnormal~~in ~~amounts~~the absence of ~~idle~~explicit ~~facility~~transition ~~expense,~~requirements ~~freight,~~specific ~~handling~~to ~~costs~~the newly ~~and~~adopted accounting principle.

In ~~addition~~However, ~~this~~the ~~statement~~reporting ~~requires~~of ~~that~~an ~~allocation~~error ofcorrection ~~fixed~~involves ~~production~~adjustments ~~overhead~~to previously issued financial statements similar to those generally applicable to reporting an accounting change retrospectively. Therefore, the ~~costs~~reporting of ~~conversion~~a becorrection ~~based~~of onan ~~the~~error ~~normal~~by ~~capacity~~restating ofpreviously ~~the~~issued ~~production~~financial ~~facilities~~statements is also addressed by SFAS No. 154. The ~~adoption~~Company adopted the provisions of SFAS No. ~~151~~154 effective ~~September~~March 1, ~~2005,~~2006. The adoption did not have an impact on the Company’s financial position, or results of operations ~~or cash flow~~.

In October 2005, the FASB issued Staff Position Financial Accounting Standard (“FAS”) 13-1, “Accounting for Rental Costs Incurred during a Construction Period,” (FAS 13-1) which requires rental costs associated with ground or building operating leases that are incurred during a construction period to be recognized as rental expense. ~~This Staff~~ ~~Position~~The isCompany adopted ~~effective~~the ~~for~~provisions ~~reporting~~of ~~periods~~FAS ~~beginning~~13-1 ~~after~~effective ~~December~~March 151, ~~2005,~~ ~~and retrospective application is permitted but not required~~2006. The adoption ofdid ~~this statement is~~ not ~~expected to~~ have ~~any~~an ~~significant~~impact ~~effect~~ on the Company’s ~~results~~financial ofposition ~~operations~~ or ~~financial~~results of ~~position~~operations.

In June 2005, the FASB issued SFAS No. 154, “Accounting Changes and Error Corrections, a replacement of APB No. 20 and FAS No.3”. . SFAS No. 154 provides guidance on the accounting for and reporting of accounting changes and error calculations. It establishes, unless impracticable, retrospective application as the required method for reporting a change in accounting principle in the absence of explicit transition requirements specific to the newly adopted accounting principle. SFAS No. 154 also provides guidance for determining whether retrospective application is impracticable. The correction of an error in previously issued financial statements is not an accounting change. However, the reporting of an error correction involves adjustments to previously issued financial statements similar to those generally applicable to reporting an accounting change retrospectively. Therefore, the reporting of a correction of an error by restating previously issued financial statements is also addressed by SFAS No. 154. SFAS No. 154 is required to be adopted for reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2005. The Company does not believe its adoption will have a material impact on its consolidated results of operations or financial position.

2. Inventories

Inventories were as follows:

	November 30, 2004		August 31, 2005		November 30, 2005

3. Assets held for sale

The ~~book~~net book values of assets held for sale were:

	August 31, 2005		~~August 31, 2005~~	May 31, 2006		~~November 30, 2005~~

The working capital of discontinued operations at August 31, 2005 was net of liabilities held for sale of $1,280,000. See Note 6 below.

4. Earnings per share

Basic earnings per share (“EPS”) was computed by dividing net income by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during each period.

Diluted EPS reflects the potential dilution that could occur if securities or other contracts to issue common stock were exercised or converted into common stock. Diluted EPS was calculated using the “treasury stock” method as if dilutive options had been exercised and the funds were used to purchase common shares at the average market price during the period. Options to purchase ~~590~~773,000 shares of common ~~shares~~stock as of ~~November~~May 3031, ~~2004~~2005 and ~~796~~410,000 shares of common ~~shares~~stock as of ~~November~~May 3031, ~~2005~~ 2006 were excluded from the calculation of equivalent shares, as they would have been anti-dilutive.

The following is a reconciliation of the numerators and denominators of the basic and diluted EPS computations for “income available to common stockholders” and other disclosures required by FASB Statement of Accounting Standards No. 128, “Earnings per Share”:

5. Stock-based compensation

~~“Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees”, and its related interpretations~~5. ~~SFAS 123R requires that new, modified and unvested share~~ Stock-based ~~payment transactions with employees, such as stock options, be recognized in the financial statements based on their fair value and recognized as~~ compensation expense over the vesting period. The Company has elected to use the modified prospective method, under which previously reported financial results are not restated to reflect the stock-based compensation formerly recognized in the required pro forma footnote disclosures.

Effective September 1, 2005, the Company adopted SFAS No. 123R, “Share-Based Payment,” which revised SFAS No. 123, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation”, and superseded Accounting Principals Board Opinion (“APB”) No. 25 “Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees”, and its related interpretations. SFAS 123R requires that new, modified and unvested share-based payment transactions with employees, such as stock options, be recognized in the financial statements based on their fair value and recognized as compensation expense over the vesting period. The Company has elected to use the modified prospective method, under which previously reported financial results are not restated to reflect the stock-based compensation formerly recognized in the required pro forma footnote disclosures.

The Company deemed it to be in the best interests of the Company and its stockholders to minimize the compensation expense that would be required to be recognized under SFAS No. 123R for “out-of -the-money” or “underwater” stock options. Consequently, in the fiscal year ended August 31, 2005, the Company accelerated the vesting of most of the then outstanding stock options that contained exercise prices greater than the market trading price at that time. As a result of this early vesting, employee compensation expense of $380,000, net of tax, was recognized in the pro forma footnote disclosure for the year ended August 31, 2005 and will not be recognized in the reported results of operations in the periods following the adoption of SFAS No. 123R.

As a result of adopting SFAS 123R, the Company recognized compensation expense for stock options of $19,000 in the three- month period ended ~~November~~May 3031, 2006 ~~2005~~and of $15 62,000 in the nine month period ended May 31, 2006, net of tax benefit. Prior to the adoption of SFAS 123R, the Company applied the provisions of APB No. 25 and Financial Interpretation No. 44. Consequently, no compensation expense was recognized for stock options in the three-month ~~period~~and nine-month periods ended ~~November~~May 3031, ~~2004~~2005.

The following table illustrates the effect on net earnings and net earnings per share if the Company had applied the fair value recognition provisions of SFAS No. 123 as of September 1, 2004. The fair value estimate was computed using the Black-Scholes option pricing model.

6. Discontinued operations

AsIn ~~previously disclosed, in~~ September 2005, the Company sold certain assets and liabilities of its former Electrical Components segment at their book value to an investor group for $300,000 cash and a $2,280,000 note due in August 2006, and leased related equipment and facilities to the investor group for five years. In February 2006, the Company sold the note, the leased fixed assets and substantially all of the remaining assets of the segment, other than real estate, for $5,698,000, the aggregate book value. The proceeds were used to pay off related equipment financing and other debt. Additional assets, principally real estate located in Illinois, are reported in assets held for sale. The financial results ~~of Plastron,~~ which were formerly reported as the Electrical Components segment, have been excluded from results of operations for the periods presented herein and have been presented as a discontinued operation.

8. Segment information

The Company has three reportable segments identified by differences in products and ~~distribution~~ distribution channels. The accounting policies of the segments are the same as those described in the summary of significant accounting polices described in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended August 31, 2005. The primary measure of each reportable segment’s profit used by the Company to assess performance and allocate resources is operating income. The Company’s operations are reported in the following business segments:

Optical Components. In its Optical Components segment, Summa designs and manufactures plastic prismatic lenses, reflectors and diffusers and other plastic products, which are used in commercial and industrial lighting fixtures and other applications.

Material Handling Components. In its Material Handling Components segment, Summa designs and manufactures engineered plastic components, which form conveyer belts and chains and other plastic products for use in food processing.

Irrigation Components. In its Irrigation Components segment, Summa designs and manufactures plastic injection-molded fittings, micro-sprinklers, emitters, valves, filters and accessories, extruded tubing and other plastic products for drip irrigation systems used in agriculture, commercial landscape and other applications.

Formerly, the Company also operated in an Electrical Components segment which was discontinued in the first quarter of fiscal 2006 and has been reported as discontinued operations at August 31, 2005 and for the ~~period~~periods ended ~~November~~May 3031, 2005 and May 31, 2006.

Summa manufactures plastic products for diverse commercial and industrial markets. Through its three reportable segments, Summa designs and manufactures injection-molded and formed plastic optical components for OEM customers in the lighting industry; modular plastic conveyor belt and chain for the food processing industry; engineered plastic fittings, micro-sprinklers, emitters, valves, filters and tubing for irrigation systems used in agriculture, commercial landscape and other applications; and other molded and extruded plastic components for diverse industries.

Significant events and developments during the first quarter of fiscal 2006, ended November 30 2005

During the quarter, plastic resin, the principal raw material used by the Company, experienced extreme price inflation and volatility, as a result of a number of factors including petrochemical plant interruptions related to hurricanes in the Gulf of Mexico. The price volatility was particularly evident with respect to polyethylene, a primary material used in the Irrigation Components segment. As a result, the Company was not able to pass through all cost increases incurred and price increases passed through typically had little or no mark-up. These factors had the effect of reducing gross margins. In the Irrigation Components segment, some customers placed speculative purchase orders against the risk of further price increases or material unavailability. The Company did not experience any supply interruptions and prices have moderated somewhat since the end of the first quarter.

As previously announced, during the quarter, the Company ceased operations in the Electrical Components segment, when it sold its bobbin manufacturing business. Prior to the cessation of operations, the Company experienced excessive costs related to closing inventory activity, reduced sales and employee separation expenses. As a result, a loss of $387,000, or $.10 per share, was incurred for the first quarter and reported as a loss from discontinued operations.

Results of Operations

The following table sets forth certain information regarding continuing operations, derived from Summa’s unaudited condensed consolidated statements of income, as a percent of sales for the three month and nine month periods ended ~~November~~May 3031, 2005 ~~2004~~ and ~~November~~May 3031, ~~2005~~2006, and the Company’s effective income tax rate during those periods:

Quarter ended ~~November~~May 3031, ~~2005~~2006 compared to the quarter ended ~~November~~May 3031, ~~2004~~ 2005

Sales for the ~~first~~third quarter, ended ~~November~~May 3031, ~~2005~~2006, increased by $21,~~252~~599,000, or 96%, from $28,808,000 to $30,407,000, primarily due to the effects of price increases (approximately $1900,~~200,~~000), new projects and ~~some~~ ~~speculative~~market ~~buying~~growth, bypartially ~~Irrigation~~offset ~~Components~~by intentionally ~~segment~~discontinued ~~customers~~unprofitable tobusiness ~~hedge~~(approximately $300,000). ~~against~~Sales ~~anticipated~~in ~~future~~the ~~higher~~Optical ~~prices~~Components ~~for~~segment ~~resin.

Record rainfall in California delayed the agricultural planting season that normally peaks in the third fiscal quarter. Sales growth is therefore anticipated in the Irrigation Components segment in the fourth quarter.

~~Gross~~Cost ~~profit~~of sales for the third ~~first~~ quarter, ended May 31, 2006, increased by $~~340~~1,039,000, or 5%, from $22,178,000 to $23,217,000, primarily due to increased volume, manufacturing inefficiencies, an unfavorable change in sales mix and higher resin costs. Cost of sales in the ~~comparable~~Optical ~~prior~~Components ~~year~~segment increased by $1,079,000, or 10%, ~~period~~from $10,703,000 to $11,782,000, primarily due to increased volume, manufacturing inefficiencies, sales mix and higher resin costs. Cost of sales in the Material Handling Components segment decreased by $156,000, or 3%, from $4,769,000 to $4,613,000, primarily due to improved efficiency in the manufacturing process and supply chain related to recent productivity investments and benefits of the previous facility consolidation. Cost of sales in the Irrigation Components segment increased $134,000 primarily due to manufacturing inefficiencies and an unfavorable change in sales mix.

Gross profit for the third quarter increased $560,000, or 8%, from $6,630,000 to $7,190,000, from the comparable prior year period, primarily due to increased selling prices, partially offset by increased cost of sales as described above. Gross margin increased from 23.0% to 23.6%, primarily due the effects of higher selling prices, partially offset by increased cost of sales. Gross profit in the Optical Components segment was virtually unchanged at $2,450,000. Increased sales were offset by increased cost of sales due to higher volume, increased raw material costs, sales mix and manufacturing inefficiencies. Gross margin in the Optical Components segment decreased from 2518.36% to 2417.52%. Gross profit in the Material Handling Components segment increased $667,000, or 27%, from $2,490,000 to $3,157,000, primarily due to price increases and manufacturing efficiency improvements.

Sales for the nine months ended May 31, 2006 increased $4,675,000, or 6%, from $80,982,000 to $85,657,000, primarily due to price increases (approximately $3,300,000) and increases in unit sales, partially offset by intentionally eliminated unprofitable sales (approximately $600,000). Sales in the Optical Components segment increased by $1,709,000, or 4%, from $41,019,000 to $42,728,000, primarily due to price increases (approximately $1,500,000). Sales in the Material Handling Components segment increased by $1,608,000, or 8%, from $19,874,000 to $21,482,000 primarily due to strength in core markets and price increases (approximately $800,000). Sales in the Irrigation Components segment increased by $1,358,000, or 7%, from $20,089,000 to $21,447,000, primarily due to price increases (approximately $1,000,000), increased sales to existing customers and favorable market conditions, partially offset by intentionally eliminated unprofitable sales (approximately $600,000).

Cost of sales for the nine months, ended May 31, 2006, increased by $3,160,000, or 5%, from $61,968,000 to $65,128,000, primarily due to increased volume, manufacturing inefficiencies, sales mix and higher resin costs. Cost of sales in the Optical Components segment increased by $1,670,000, or 5%, from $32,909,000 to $34,579,000, primarily due to higher resin costs, manufacturing inefficiencies and sales mix. Cost of sales in the Material Handling Components segment increased by just $28,000, or 0.2%, from $13,220,000 to $13,248,000, primarily due to improved efficiency in the manufacturing process and supply chain related to recent productivity investments and benefits of the

previous facility consolidation. Cost of sales in the Irrigation Components segment increased $1,345,000, or 8%, primarily due to a change in sales mix and increased sales volume.

Gross profit for the nine months ended May 31, 2006 increased by $1,515,000, or 8%, from $19,014,000 to $20,529,000, primarily due to increased sales. Gross margin increased from 23.5% to 24.0%, primarily due to the effects of higher selling prices, partially offset by higher resin costs. Gross profit in the Optical Components segment was virtually unchanged at $8,149,000. Increased sales were offset by increased cost of sales due to volume, higher raw material costs, sales mix and manufacturing inefficiencies. Gross margin in the Optical Components segment decreased from 19.6% to 19.1%. Gross profit in the Material Handling Components segment increased $1,580,000, or 24%, from $6,654,000 to $8,234,000, primarily due to price increases and manufacturing efficiency improvements. Gross margin in the Material Handling Components segment increased from 33.5% to 38.3%. Gross profit in the Irrigation Components segment was virtually unchanged at $4,154,000, primarily due to due to the change in cost of sales described above. Gross margin in the Irrigation Components segment decreased from 20.6% to 19.4%.

Operating expenses for the nine months ended May 31, 2006 increased $687,000, or 5%, from $14,200,000 to $14, 887,000, primarily due to increased variable sales expense and variable compensation expense, unusually high recruiting and consulting expense in the most recent nine month period and the inclusion of stock based compensation in the most recent nine month period, partially offset by a higher gain from the sale of excess real estate in the most recent nine month period and management cost reduction initiatives. As a percent of sales, operating expenses were virtually unchanged at 17.4%. Operating expenses in the Optical Components segment decreased $223,000, or 5%, from $4,792,000, to $4,569,000, primarily due to a gain on the sale of real estate in the most recent period of $205,000. Operating expenses in the Material Handling Components segment increased $536,000, or 12%, from $4,598,000 to $5,134,000, primarily due to increased variable selling and variable compensation expense and unusually high recruiting expense. Operating expenses in the Irrigation Components segment increased $132,000, or 4%, from $3,144,000 to $3,276,000, primarily due to increased variable compensation expense and recruiting costs.

Operating income for the nine months ended May 31, 2006, including a gain on sales of real estate which was $162,000 greater than in the prior year nine month period, was $5,642,000, which was $828,000, or 17%, higher than in the comparable prior year period. Operating margin increased to 6.6% in the nine months ended May 31, 2006 from 5.9% in the comparable prior year period, due to the factors discussed above. Operating income in the Optical Components segment increased $262,000, primarily due to a gain of $205,000 on the sale of an excess building, implementation of price increases and management cost reduction initiatives, partially offset by increased material costs and unusually high recruiting and consulting expenses. Operating margin in the Optical Components segment increased from 8.0% to 8.4%. Operating income in the Material Handling Components segment increased $1,044,000, primarily due to the effects of higher sales volume and continuing benefits of a previous facility consolidation, partially offset by unusually high recruiting costs. Operating margin in the Material Handling Components segment increased from 10.3% to 14.4%. Operating income in the Irrigation Components segment decreased $119,000, primarily due to several operational issues in the most recent quarter and higher recruiting costs, partially offset by the effects of higher sales volume. Operating margin in the Irrigation Components segment decreased from 5.0% to 4.1%.

Net interest expense for the nine months ended May 31, 2006 was $1,506,000, $382,000 higher than in the comparable prior year period, due to the effects of higher average interest rates in the most recent period and note prepayment costs related to the previously reported sale of the assets of the former Electrical Components segment, partially offset by lower average debt levels during the most recent period.

The provision for income taxes for the nine months ended May 31, 2006 was $1,496,000, $191,000 higher than in the comparable prior year period, due to higher income before taxes. The effective income tax rate was 36.2% in the most recent nine month period versus 35.4% a year earlier, due to the distribution of business among various tax jurisdictions.

The Company’s backlog of unfilled orders, believed to be firm, was $6,795,000 at May 31, 2005, $5,592,000 at August 31, 2005 and $7,703,000 at May 31, 2006. Because the time between entering an order and shipping the product and recording a sale is typically shorter than one month, backlog levels are not a reliable indicator of future sales volume.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Working Capital. ~~The~~ The Company’s working capital was $2019,~~844~~805,000 at ~~November~~May 3031, ~~2004~~2005; $19,075,000 at August 31, 2005 and $197,~~923~~440,000 at ~~November~~May 3031, 2006. Working capital was $11,635,000 lower at the end of the third quarter than at August 31, 2005 primarily because borrowings of $12,282,000 on a bank line of credit were reported as a current liability at May 31, 2006, as it is due to mature in 2007, whereas the balance of the bank line was previously reported as long term debt.

Sources and Uses of Funds. Net cash provided by operating activities for the first ~~three~~nine months of ~~fiscal~~ fiscal 2006 was $~~884~~3,092,000, compared to $~~584~~2,848,000 ~~used~~provided inby operating activities ~~for~~in the first ~~quarter~~nine months of fiscal 2005. The increase was primarily due to an increase in net income partially offset by changes in the components of working capital. The increases in accounts receivable and inventory are primarily seasonal and greater than last year due to sales growth. Inventory also increased due to selected increases to improve customer service levels, the accumulation of excess regrind at an extrusion plant, and sales growth and new products. The increase to accounts payable and accrued liabilities was primarily seasonal. Net cash of $4,208,000 was provided by investing activities in the ~~most~~first ~~recent~~nine ~~quarter~~months of fiscal 2006, versus ~~decreases~~$5,028,000 used in ~~the~~investing activities ~~prior~~in ~~year~~the first ~~quarter~~ nine months of fiscal 2005, ~~partially~~primarily ~~offset~~due byto substantially ahigher ~~larger~~proceeds ~~increase~~from sales of assets in ~~inventory~~the ~~than~~current period than in the prior ~~year~~ ~~comparable~~period, the sale of the note receivable in the current period and an ~~increase~~unusually large investment in ~~accounts~~a ~~receivable~~new facility in the ~~most~~prior period.

13In October 2004, the Company announced a plan to repurchase up to $2,000,000 of its Common Stock with no time limit (the “2005 Buy Back”). As of May 31, 2006, the status of the 2005 Buy Back was as follows:

improve customer service levels. Increases in accounts payable were primarily related to inventory increases. Net cash used in investing activities was $14,000 in the first quarter, $3,253,000 less than in the first quarter of fiscal 2005, primarily due to an unusually large investment in a new facility in the Material Handling Components segment and investments in equipment in the first quarter of fiscal 2005 and proceeds from the sale of assets in the first quarter of fiscal 2006. Net cash of $1,391,000 was used in financing activities for the first three months of fiscal 2006, compared to $3,435,000 in net cash provided in the prior year first three months. The change primarily represents retirement of debt in the most recent period, versus increase in debt in the prior year, associated with the new facility investment. Additionally, the Company used $409,000 for the repurchase of stock in the open market and payment of dividends in the first quarter of fiscal 2006 versus no such transactions in the first quarter of fiscal 2005.

Summa believes that cash flows from operations and existing credit facilities will be ~~sufficient~~ sufficient to fund working capital requirements, planned investments and debt service for the next twelve months. In addition, funds may be generated from a limited number of sales of certain non-core assets of the Company. The Company has a strategy which includes growth by acquisition. In the event an acquisition plan is adopted which requires funds exceeding the availability described above, an alternate source of funds to accomplish the acquisition would have to be developed. ~~The~~ Company has 10,000,000 shares of common stock authorized, of which 3,920,226 shares were outstanding at November 30, 2005 and 5,000,000 shares of «blank check» preferred stock authorized, of which none was outstanding at November 30, 2005.

The Company could issue additional shares of common or preferred stock or enter into new or revised borrowing arrangements to raise funds.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

The Company’s material off-balance sheet arrangements are as follows:

Future Lease Payments. The Company leases offices and manufacturing facilities and certain equipment under non-cancelable operating leases. ~~Future~~ Future payments under these leases at ~~November~~May 3031, ~~2005~~ 2006 are approximately as follows:

Fiscal Year	Amount

In recent years the Company has consolidated and/or abandoned several facilities in an effort to improve efficiencies and operating results, and plans further consolidations. In the event the Company was to abandon a facility prior to its being leased to a new tenant, the Company could become obligated for accelerated lease payments or other expenses.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

The foregoing discussion and analysis of the Company’s financial condition and results of operations are based upon the consolidated financial statements of the Company, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The preparation of such financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions in applying certain critical accounting policies. Certain accounting estimates are particularly sensitive because of their significance to the Company’s consolidated financial statements and because of the possibility that future events affecting the estimates could differ markedly from current expectations. The Company believes that the following are some of the more critical judgment areas in the application of its accounting policies that affect the Company’s financial statements:

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and Long-Lived Assets to be Disposed of. The Company reviews its long-lived assets and certain identifiable intangibles for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Recoverability of assets to be held and used is measured by a comparison of the carrying amount of an asset to the undiscounted future operating cash flows expected to be generated by the asset. If such assets are considered to be impaired, the impairment to be recognized is measured by the amount by which the carrying amount of the assets exceeds the fair value of the assets. Assets to be disposed of by sale are reported at the lower of the carrying amount or fair value less costs to sell.

The Company has a significant amount of property and equipment and intangible assets. The determination as to whether events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable involves management’s judgment. In addition, should the Company conclude that recoverability of an asset is in question, the estimate of undiscounted future operating cash flows to determine whether an asset is recoverable and, if not, the final determination of the fair value of the asset, is also based on the judgment of management. These judgments can be impacted by a variety of underlying assumptions, such as the general business climate, effectiveness of competition and supply and cost of resources. Accordingly, actual results can differ significantly from the assumptions made by management in making its estimates. Future changes in management’s estimates could result in indicators of impairment and future impairment charges.

Valuation of Inventory. The Company values its inventories at the lower of cost or market using the first-in, first-out (FIFO) method. The Company records adjustments to the value of inventory based upon obsolescence and changes in market value as permanent changes in the carrying amount of such inventory until its ultimate sale or other disposition. The Company has evaluated the current level of inventories considering historical sales and other factors and, based on this evaluation, has recorded adjustments to cost of goods sold to adjust inventory to net realizable value. These adjustments are estimates, which could vary significantly, either favorably or unfavorably, from actual requirements if future economic conditions, customer demand or competition differ from expectations.

Accounts Receivable. The Company ~~performs~~ performs ongoing evaluations of customers and adjusts credit limits based upon ~~each~~ each customer’s payment history and credit worthiness, as determined by credit information available at that time. ~~The Company~~ monitors collections and payments from customers and maintains allowances for doubtful accounts for the inability of customers to make required payments. If the financial condition of customers were to deteriorate resulting in an impairment of their ability to make payments, additional allowances may be required.The

Company monitors collections and payments from customers and maintains allowances for doubtful accounts for the inability of customers to make required payments. If the financial condition of customers were to deteriorate resulting in an impairment of their ability to make payments, additional allowances may be required.

Goodwill. Goodwill represents the excess of purchase price over fair value of net assets acquired. Goodwill is tested for impairment annually in the fourth quarter, after completion of an annual planning process, or earlier if events occur which require an impairment analysis to be performed. With respect to each reporting unit which has any goodwill, the fair value is determined using traditional valuation methodology, and compared with its carrying value. If the fair value exceeds the unit’s carrying value, goodwill of the reporting unit is considered not to be impaired. If the unit’s carrying value exceeds its fair value, assets of the unit are individually valued to determine the implied fair value of the reporting unit goodwill. Impairment loss is recognized to the extent that the carrying value of the goodwill exceeds its implied fair value. Significant management judgment is involved in determining the fair value of assets. Future changes in management’s estimates could result in additional impairment charges to goodwill.

Income Taxes. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to temporary differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. Deferred tax assets are also recognized for tax credit carryforwards and then assessed (including the anticipation of future income) to determine the likelihood of realization. Deferred tax assets and liabilities ~~are~~ are measured using the rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in in which the temporary differences are expected to reverse and the credits are expected to be used. The effect of a change in tax rates on deferred tax assets and liabilities is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date.

15Accounting for Stock Options. The Company accounts for stock-based compensation in accordance with SFAS No. 123(R), Share-Based Payment. Under the fair value recognition provisions of this statement, share-based compensation cost is measured at the grant date based on the value of the award and is recognized as expense over the vesting period. The Company uses the Black-Scholes model to calculate the fair value and is required to exercise judgment and make assumptions concerning the expected term, the expected volatility, and the expected dividends. If actual results differ significantly from these estimates, stock-based compensation expense and results of operations could be impacted. The Company has elected to use the modified prospective method, under which previously reported financial results are not restated to reflect the stock-based compensation expense formerly recognized in pro forma footnote disclosures and could affect comparability of historical results to results reported subsequent to the adoption of SFAS No. 123R.
