         Transition and  Disclosure." In accordance  with the accounting  change
         for the modified-prospective transition method, we incurred stock-based
         compensation  expense of $138,000,  net of a tax benefit of $92,000, in
         the current  three month period ended  September 30, 2006 and $310,000,
         net of a tax  benefit of  $204,000,  in the current  nine-month  period
         ended  September  30,  2006.  It is  expected  that for the year  ended
         December 31, 2006,  stock-based  compensation  expense will approximate
         $450,000,  net of tax.  Prior to January 1, 2006,  we accounted for our
         stock-based  compensation  plans using the intrinsic value method under
         APB Opinion No. 25,  "Accounting  for Stock Issued to Employees"  ("APB
         25") and related Interpretations. Under APB 25, when the exercise price
         of our employee stock  options,  was at least equal to the market price
         of the underlying  stock on the date of grant, no compensation  expense
         was  recognized.  SFAS  No.  148  requires  us to  disclose  pro  forma
         information  related to stock-based  compensation,  in accordance  with
         SFAS No.  123 (R),  on a  quarterly  basis in  addition  to the  annual
         disclosure for all periods presented prior to January 1, 2006.

         If compensation  cost for our stock-based  compensation  plans had been
         determined based on the fair value at the date of grant consistent with
         the method prescribed by Statement of Financial Accounting Standard No.

3.       CHANGE IN ACCOUNTING ESTIMATE:

         Effective  January 1, 2006,  we changed our estimate of the useful life
         for the accounting of the amortization of certain intangible assets, no
         longer amortizing our trademark for $228,000 per quarter,  based on the
         assessment that the Everlast  trademark has an indefinite  useful life.
         As of the  effective  date  of  this  change,  the  book  value  of our
         trademark is $22.7 million.  For the periods presented prior to January
         1, 2006, we amortized this intangible asset over a 30-year life.


4.       EARNINGS PER SHARE:

         We report basic and diluted  earnings per share in accordance with SFAS
         Statement No. 128 "Earnings Per Share" ("SFAS No. 128"). Basic earnings
         per share amounts are computed based on the weighted  average number of
         shares actually  outstanding  during the period.  Diluted  earnings per
         share amounts are based on an increased  number of shares that would be
         outstanding  assuming  the  exercise  of  dilutive  stock  options  and
         warrants, and contingent consideration pursuant to the Merger Agreement
         dated October 24, 2000 that was in place for periods presented prior to
         January 1, 2006.

         The  following  table sets forth the  computation  of basic and diluted
         earnings per share pursuant to SFAS No. 128

5.       DISCONTINUED COMPONENTS:

         On December 17, 2004, we announced  the signing of the largest  license
         agreement in our history  whereby we licensed our United States women's
         apparel category to Jacques Moret, Inc.  ("Jacques  Moret"),  effective
         January  1,  2005.   Effective   January  1,  2006,   we  expanded  our
         relationship  with Jacques  Moret whereby we licensed our United States
         men's apparel category.  We believe that it was in our best interest to
         license  our  women's  and men's  apparel  businesses  to reduce  risk,
         increase  profitability  and to grow the Everlast apparel presence as a
         result of the licensees'  ability to source product more  competitively
         due to its buying  power and expanded  distribution  network in certain
         channels.

         The following results of our men's and women's apparel  components have
         been  presented  as  loss  from  a   discontinued   components  in  the
         accompanying  consolidated  statements of operations  for the three and
         nine-months ended September 30, 2005.

6.       GAIN ON  EARLY  EXTINGUISHMENT  OF  SERIES A  REDEEMABLE  PARTICIPATING
         PREFERRED STOCK  ("PREFERRED  STOCK") AND NOTES PAYABLE,  AND LONG-TERM
         DEBT:

         On February 8, 2006, we announced the redemption of all our outstanding
         Preferred Stock in the aggregate  amount of $20 million and elimination
         of all related rights and privileges,  including the elimination of the
         profit-sharing  mechanism,  the retirement of two seats on our board of
         directors,  and the  prepayment of our  outstanding $6 million in notes
         payable to one of the former holders of the Preferred Stock.

         We  accomplished  the redemptions and prepayment by entering into a $25
         million  Senior Secured  Four-Year Term Facility (the "Term  Facility")
         with Wells Fargo Century,  Inc. ("Wells Fargo").  Pursuant to the terms
         of the Term Facility,  we redeemed all our outstanding Preferred Stock,
         prepaid all our outstanding notes payable and eliminated all rights and
         privileges  associated  therewith  for an  aggregate  amount  of  $22.7
         million,  taken as an advance  under the Term  Facility.  The remaining
         $2.3 million of available financing under the Term Facility was used to
         pay for  financing  and  professional  costs  associated  with the Term
         Facility.  The Term Facility requires quarterly principal  installments
         of $635,000, commencing April 30, 2006, with a balloon payment of $15.5
         million due  December  31,  2009,  along with  monthly  interest on the
         related  outstanding  principal at prime plus 1% (9.25% as of September
         30,  2006.)  The  Term  Facility  has  customary  covenants  in  place,
         including a minimum  fixed-charge  financial covenant ratio, and excess
         cash-flow  recapture (which we currently estimate to be $1.5 million at
         September 30, 2006 and have reclassified $1.5 million of long term debt
         into accrued expenses and other current liabilities.) The Term Facility
         is secured by all of our tangible and intangible assets.

         In  accordance  with   prevailing   accounting   principles   regarding
         short-term  debt  expected to be  refinanced  at December 31, 2005,  we
         reclassified  our  current  ($3,000,000)  and  long-term  ($17,000,000)
         Preferred Stock redemption  obligations and notes payable  ($6,000,000)
         based on our current and long-term  debt  requirements  of our new Term
         Facility.  As  part of  this  transaction,  we  recorded  a $2  million
         tax-free gain from this early  redemption of all outstanding  Preferred
         Stock and notes payable in the first quarter of fiscal 2006.

8.       OPERATING SEGMENTS:

         Our  operating  segments are evidenced by the structure of our internal
         organization.  The segments of sporting  goods  equipment and licensing
         are  defined  for  operations  participating  in  Everlast  brand sales
         activity,  which  are  separately  broken  out  and  disclosed  on  our
         statement of operations.

         Our sporting  goods business  predominately  operates in one geographic
         segment,  the  United  States  and  Canada.  As of  January 1, 2006 our
         licensing  segment  receives  approximately  52% of our  revenues  from
         domestic licensees,  26% from European licensees and 22% from all other
         countries.

         Where applicable,  "other"  represents items necessary to reconcile the
         consolidated  financial  statements,  which generally include corporate
         activity and costs, to the segment  financial  information  provided as

ITEM 2.  MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS
OF OPERATIONS

      Certain   statements   contained  in  this  quarterly  report   constitute
"forward-looking statements" within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities
Act and  Sections  21E of the  Exchange  Act.  Such  forward-looking  statements
involve known and unknown risks,  uncertainties and other factors that may cause
our actual results, levels of activity, performance or achievements, or industry
results, to be materially different from any future results, levels of activity,
performance  or  achievements  expressed  or  implied  by  such  forward-looking
statements. Such factors include, among others, the following:  general economic
and business  conditions,  our ability to implement our business  strategy;  our
ability  to  obtain  financing  for  general  corporate  purposes;  competition;
availability  of key  personnel,  and changes in, or the failure to comply with,
government's  regulations,  among other geo-political and economic risk factors.
As a result of the foregoing and other factors,  no assurance can be given as to
the future results,  levels of activity and  achievements and neither us nor any
person  assumes  responsibility  for the  accuracy  and  completeness  of  these
statements.

GENERAL

      Everlast  Worldwide  Inc.,  a Delaware  corporation  and its  subsidiaries
(collectively,  the "Company" and herein  referred to as "we",  "us" and "our"),
was  originally  organized  in the  State  of New  York on July 6,  1992 and was
re-incorporated  in Delaware on October 19, 1994. Our sporting goods business is
currently  engaged in the design,  manufacture,  marketing  and sale of sporting
goods related to the sport of boxing such as boxing  gloves,  heavy bags,  speed
bags,  boxing  trunks,  and  miscellaneous  gym equipment  that are sold through
sporting goods stores, mass merchandisers,  catalog operations,  gymnasiums, and
martial arts  studios.  In  addition,  we license the  Everlast(R)  trademark to
numerous companies, both domestic and international, that source and manufacture
products  such  as  men's,   women's  and   children's   apparel  and  footwear,
cardiovascular equipment, back to school stationery, eyewear, sports bags, hats,
fragrances, fine jewelry, batteries, nutritional products and other accessories.
One of our business  strategies,  as a licensing  and marketing  company,  is to
maximize  the value of our  intellectual  property  by entering  into  strategic
licenses with entities  which have been selected based upon our belief that they
will be able to produce and sell  quality  products in the  categories  of their
specific expertise.  This licensing strategy is designed to permit us to operate
our licensing business with minimal working capital, no inventory, production or
distribution costs or risks, and utilizing only a small group of core employees.

      Our  financial   statements  and  the  notes  thereto   contain   detailed
information that should be referred to in conjunction with this discussion.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES, ESTIMATES AND JUDGEMENTS

      Our  financial  statements  are  prepared in  accordance  with  accounting
principles generally accepted in the United States. The accounting principles we
use  require us to make  estimates  and  assumptions  that  affect the  reported
amounts of assets and  liabilities  at the date of the financial  statements and
amounts of income  and  expenses  during the  reporting  periods  presented.  We
believe in the quality and reasonableness of our critical  accounting  policies,
however it is likely that materially  different  amounts would be reported under
different  conditions or using different  assumptions that we have  consistently
applied. We believe our critical  accounting policies are as follows,  including
our methodology for estimates made and assumptions used.




                                      -12-



         REVENUE   RECOGNITION   POLICY.   Revenues  from  royalty  and  finders
         agreements are recognized when earned by applying  contractual  royalty
         rates to quarterly point of sale data,  among other criteria,  received
         from  our  licensees.  Our  royalty  recognition  policy  provides  for
         recognition  of  royalties  in the  quarter  earned,  although  a large
         portion of such royalty payments are actually received during the month
         following  the end of a quarter.  Revenues  are not  recognized  unless
         collectibility is reasonably  assured.  Product revenues are recognized
         upon shipment of inventory to customers.

         TRADE  RECEIVABLES.  We perform ongoing credit  evaluations on existing
         and  new  customers   daily.   We  apply  reserves  for  delinquent  or
         uncollectible  trade  receivables  based on a  specific  identification
         methodology  and  also  apply a  general  reserve  based  on our  trade
         receivables  aging  categories.  Credit  losses  have been  within  our
         estimates over the last few years.

         INVENTORIES. Our inventories are valued at the lower of cost or market.
         Cost has been derived  principally  on the standard  cost  methodology,
         where we utilize a first-in-first-out method. Fixed production overhead
         is  allocated  on  the  basis  of  normal  operating  capacity  of  the
         production  facility.  We provide  for reserve  allowances  on finished
         goods and specifically identify and reserve for slow moving or obsolete
         raw materials and packaging.

         DEFERRED TAXES.  Deferred taxes are determined based on the differences
         between  the   financial   statement   and  tax  bases  of  assets  and
         liabilities,  using  enacted  tax rates in effect for the year in which
         the  differences  are  expected to reverse.  Valuation  allowances  are
         established when necessary to reduce deferred tax assets to the amounts
         expected  to be  realized.  In  assessing  the  need  for  a  valuation
         allowance  management  considers estimates of future taxable income and
         ongoing  prudent and feasible tax planning  strategies.  In  accordance
         with APB Opinion 23,  "Accounting for Income Taxes - Special Areas," we
         do  not  accrue  income  taxes  on  the  undistributed  earnings  of  a
         subsidiary which is a "DISC" since the repayment of the earnings of the
         DISC is not expected in the foreseeable future. If circumstances change
         and it becomes apparent that some or all of the undistributed  earnings
         of the DISC will be remitted in the foreseeable future, then taxes will
         be accrued.

         VALUATION OF GOODWILL,  LONG-LIVED  ASSETS AND  INTANGIBLE  ASSETS.  We
         periodically evaluate goodwill, long-lived assets and intangible assets
         for potential impairment indicators. Judgements regarding the existence
         of  impairment  indicators  are based on  estimated  future cash flows,
         market  conditions,  and  legal  factors.  Future  events  could  cause
         management to conclude that  impairment  indicators  exist and that the
         net book value of goodwill,  long-lived assets and intangible assets is
         impaired.  Any resulting  impairment loss could have a material adverse
         impact on our financial condition and results of operations.

         CONTINGENCIES  AND  LITIGATION.   We  evaluate  contingent  liabilities
         including  threatened or pending litigation in accordance with SFAS No.
         5, "Accounting for  Contingencies" and record accruals when the outcome
         of  these  matters  is  deemed  probable  and the  liability  could  be
         reasonably  estimated.  Management makes these assessments based on the
         facts  and  circumstances  and in some  instances  based in part on the
         advice of outside legal counsel.




                                      -13-




RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

2004 & 2005 DISPOSAL OF BUSINESS COMPONENTS

      On December 17, 2004, we entered into our largest  licensing  agreement in
our history,  whereby we licensed our United States women's apparel  business to
Jacques Moret, effective January 1, 2005. Effective January 1, 2006, we expanded
our relationship  with Jacques Moret whereby we licensed our United States men's
apparel business.  We believe that our decision to license our men's and women's
apparel  businesses is in our best interests because it reduces risk,  increases
profitability  and grows Everlast apparel presence as a result of the licensee's
ability  to  source  product  more  competitively  due to its  buying  power and
expanded distribution network in certain channels of distribution.  Accordingly,
we have reported our results of operations on a GAAP basis,  which  includes the
application of SFAS No. 144 "Accounting  for the Disposal of Long-Lived  Assets"
which  requires us to report our results of  operations of the men's and women's
apparel businesses as discontinued  components for all current and prior periods
presented.

THREE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2006

      Net  revenues  increased  to $13.4  million  for the  three  months  ended
September 30, 2006 from $10.6  million for the three months ended  September 30,
2005, an increase of approximately $2.8 million,  or 27%. Revenues from sporting
goods for the third quarter were $10.5  million,  a record,  as compared to $7.8
million in 2005,  an increase  of 35%.  The  increase  was the result of organic
growth, driven by new products, new channels of distribution and strong consumer
awareness  of our brand as a result of the airing of Season 2 of The  Contender,
which premiered July 18, 2006. Third quarter licensing  revenues  increased 5.6%
to $3.0  million  from $2.8  million in the third  quarter  of last  year.  This
increase in licensing revenues came even as we were impacted by our decision not
to renew the previously  existing footwear license that was allowed to expire in
December  2005, as well as an increase in licensing  commissions  resulting from
the litigation  settlement  which  requires us to pay  commissions to our former
agent during fiscal 2006, aggregating $425,000.

      Gross  profit  increased  to $5.7  million  for  the  three  months  ended
September  30, 2006 from $4.4 million for the three months ended  September  30,
2005.  Gross  profit  increased  as a  percentage  of net revenues to 42.7% from
42.0%.  The increase in gross profit  dollars and gross margin  percentages  was
primarily a result of our sporting  goods revenue  increase and resulting  gross
margin  improvement of 550 basis points over the 2005  comparable  period due to
lower product costs,  improved operational  efficiencies and reductions in labor
and overhead.

      Selling and  shipping  expenses  increased to  approximately  $1.8 million
(13.8% of net  revenues)  for the three  months  ended  September  30, 2006 from
approximately  $1.1 million  (10.3% of net  revenues) for the three months ended
September 30, 2005.  The increase in dollars and as a percentage of net revenues
was  primarily  a  result  of  increased  brand  enhancement,  in  the  form  of
advertising,  for $250,000 and higher royalty costs  associated with new product
introductions .

      General and  administrative  expenses were  approximately $1.3 million for
the three  months ended  September  30, 2006 as compared to $1.4 million for the
three months  ended  September  30,  2005.  The decrease was a result of reduced
corporate  overhead driven from our  discontinued  components  along with higher
legal fees associated with a litigation which occurred in the prior period.




                                      -14-



      On January 1, 2006 we adopted Statement of Financial  Accounting Standards
(SFAS) No. 123,  "Accounting for Stock-Based  Compensation,"  in accordance with
the  modified-  prospective  transition  method  prescribed  in  SFAS  No.  148,
"Accounting  for  Stock-Based  Compensation  - Transition  and  Disclosure."  In
accordance with the accounting  change for the  modified-prospective  transition
method, we incurred stock-based  compensation expense of $130,000, net of tax in
the  current  quarter.  We expect  that for the year ended  December  31,  2006,
stock-based  compensation  expense  will  approximate  $450,000,  net of tax. In
addition,  during the three month period ended September 30, 2006, we incurred a
non-cash charge in connection with the issuance of warrants to purchase  120,000
shares of our  common  stock,  $0.02 par value  (the  "Warrants")  to  Contender
Partners LLC, aggregating  approximately  $200,000. The issuance of the warrants
were valued using the Black Scholes option  pricing model,  and were in exchange
for product  placement of men's apparel and sporting goods appearing on Season 2
of The Contender.

      Effective  January 1, 2006, we changed our estimate of the useful life for
the  accounting  of the  amortization  of  certain  intangible  assets  and have
assessed that the Everlast trademark has an indefinite useful life. As a result,
we no longer amortize our trademark.  For the periods presented prior to January
1, 2006, we amortized  this  intangible  asset for $228,000 per quarter,  over a
30-year life.

      Operating  income from  continuing  operations  improved  to $2.2  million
(16.1% of net  revenues)  for the  three  months  ended  September  30,  2006 as
compared to $1.7  million  (15.9% of net  revenues)  for the three  months ended
September 30, 2005, an increase of $.5 million or 29%. The increase in operating
income  dollars  and as a  percentage  of net  revenues  for the 2006 period was
primarily a result of higher gross margins explained above.

      Interest expense and finance costs, net of interest income, increased from
$548,000 in the three-month  period ending September 30, 2005 to $889,000 during
the  September  30, 2006  period.  The  increase of $340,000  was largely due to
higher  borrowing costs  associated  with our $25 million Senior  Four-Year Term
Facility (the "Term Facility"), which was closed in February 2006 as compared to
the debt  service in place  (interest  on notes  payable)  in the same period in
2005.  This  increase  was  slightly  offset by lower  interest  on our  average
outstanding  balance with our demand line of credit under a Factoring  Agreement
with Wells Fargo  Century,  Inc. ( the "Factor") in the third quarter of 2006 as
compared  to the same  period in 2005.  Such  decrease  was a result of improved
operating cash flows.

      Income before income taxes from continuing operations for the three months
ended  September  30, 2006 was $1.3  million  compared to $1.1  million  pre-tax
profit for the  three-month  period ended September 30, 2005. The increase was a
primarily a result of higher  operating  income offset by higher interest costs,
as explained above.

      We  recognized  a tax  provision  of $587,000  for the three  months ended
September  30,  2006 as compared to a tax  provision  of $456,000  for the three
months ended September 30, 2005. We expect our tax rate to be approximately  40%
this  year,  netting  the tax  benefit  derived  from stock  based  compensation
expense.

      Net income from  continuing  operations was $689,000 in the 2006 period as
compared  to a net income of  $673,000 in 2005.  During the three  months  ended
September  30,  2005,  we  incurred a loss,  net of tax,  from the  discontinued
components  of  $498,000.  We did  not  incur  any  costs  associated  with  our
discontinued  components  in the 2006 period  presented.  Our net income for the
three  months  ended  September  30,  2005  from  continuing  and   discontinued
operations was $175,000.



                                      -15-



NINE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2006

      Net  revenues  increased  to  $33.2  million  for the  nine  months  ended
September  30, 2006 from $29.1  million for the nine months ended  September 30,
2005,  an increase of  approximately  $4.1  million,  or 14%.  This increase was
predominately a result of increases in sales of sporting goods equipment of $3.9
million  (19%  increase)  compared to the same period last year.  Our  licensing
revenues  increased  approximately  $200,000  from the nine month  period  ended
September  30, 2005 to 2006.  For the first nine months of fiscal 2006,  our net
licensing  revenues  were  impacted by our decision not to renew the  previously
existing  footwear  license that was allowed to expire in December 2005, as well
as an increase in licensing commissions resulting from the litigation settlement
which  requires us to pay  commissions  to our former agent  during  fiscal year
2006, aggregating approximately $1.3 million.

      Gross profit  increased to $14.7  million  (44.1% of net revenues) for the
nine months ended  September 30, 2006 from $12.8 million (43.9% of net revenues)
for the nine months  ended  September  30,  2005.  The  increase in gross profit
dollars was primarily a result of the aforementioned  increase in sporting goods
sales.  The gross profit  percentage  improvement  was primarily a result of our
sporting goods gross margins improving 400 basis points over the 2005 comparable
period  due to  lower  product  costs,  improved  operational  efficiencies  and
reductions in labor and overhead.

      Selling and  shipping  expenses  increased to  approximately  $4.7 million
(14.3% of net  revenues)  for the nine  months  ended  September  30,  2006 from
approximately  $3.4 million  (11.8% of net  revenues)  for the nine months ended
September 30, 2005.  The increase in dollars and as a percentage of net revenues
was primarily a result of increased  marketing and fixed advertising  associated
with our increased  revenues and royalty costs  associated  with  additional new
products introduced in 2006.

      General and administrative  expenses were $4.2 million for the nine months
ended  September  30, 2006 as compared to $4.7 million for the nine months ended
September  30, 2005.  The decrease  was a result of reduced  corporate  overhead
driven from our  discontinued  components and lower legal fees associated with a
litigation  which  occurred  in the prior  year.  During the nine  months  ended
September 30, 2005, we incurred a restructuring charge of $273,000 for a minimum
withdrawal  pension  liability  settlement  with the former  union  representing
employees of the Bronx, New York facility which was closed in December 2003.

      On January 1, 2006 we adopted Statement of Financial  Accounting Standards
(SFAS) No. 123,  "Accounting for Stock-Based  Compensation,"  in accordance with
the  modified-  prospective  transition  method  prescribed  in  SFAS  No.  148,
"Accounting  for  Stock-Based  Compensation  - Transition  and  Disclosure."  In
accordance with the accounting  change for the  modified-prospective  transition
method, we incurred stock-based  compensation expense of approximately $307,000,
net of tax benefit,  in the nine month period ended  September  30, 2006.  It is
expected  that for the year ended  December 31, 2006,  stock-based  compensation
expense will  approximate  $450,000,  net of tax. In  addition,  during the nine
month  period  ended  September  30,  2006,  we  incurred a  non-cash  charge in
connection  with the  issuance of warrants  to  purchase  120,000  shares of our
common  stock,  $0.02 par value (the  "Warrants")  to  Contender  Partners  LLC,
aggregating $200,000.

      During the nine months ended  September  30, 2005,  we incurred a non-cash
charge of  $182,000  in  connection  with the  issuance  of Warrants to purchase
149,000 shares of our common stock,  $0.02 par value to Contender  Partners LLC.
The issuance of the warrants were valued using the Black Scholes  option pricing
model, and were in exchange for product  placement of men's apparel and sporting
goods appearing on Season 2 and Season 1 of The Contender.


                                      -16-



      Effective  January 1, 2006, we changed our estimate of the useful life for
the  accounting  of the  amortization  of  certain  intangible  assets  and have
assessed that the Everlast trademark has an indefinite useful life. As a result,
we no longer amortize our trademark.  For the periods presented prior to January
1, 2006, we amortized  this  intangible  asset for $228,000 per quarter,  over a
30-year life.

      Operating  income improved to $5.2 million (15.6% of net revenues) for the
nine months  ended  September  30, 2006 as compared to $3.5  million (12% of net
revenues)  for the nine months ended  September  30,  2005,  an increase of $1.7
million or 48%. The increase in operating  income dollars and as a percentage of
net revenues  for the 2006 period was  primarily a result of higher net revenues
and improved gross margins, as explained above.

      In February 2006, we recorded a $2 million gain from the early  redemption
of our Series A Redeemable Participating Preferred Stock (the "Preferred Stock")
in the  aggregate  principal  amount of $20  million and the  prepayment  of our
outstanding  $6 million in notes  payable to one of the holders of the Preferred
Stock by entering into a Term Facility with Wells Fargo  Century,  Inc.  ("Wells
Fargo").  Under the terms of the Term Facility,  we redeemed all our outstanding
Preferred Stock,  prepaid all of our outstanding  notes payable  associated with
the Preferred  Stock, and eliminated all rights and privileges of holders of the
Preferred Stock,  for an aggregate amount of $22.7 million,  taken as an advance
under the Term  Facility.  The remaining $2.1 million  available  under the Term
Facility was used to pay financing and  professional  costs  associated with the
Term Facility.  The Term Facility requires quarterly  principal  installments of
$635,000,  commencing  April 30,  2006,  with a  balloon  of $15.5  million  due
December  31,  2009,  along with  monthly  interest on the  related  outstanding
principal  at prime plus 1% (9.25% at  September  30,  2006.) The Term  Facility
provides  for  customary  covenants  including  but  not  limited  to a  minimum
fixed-charge  financial covenant ratio and excess cash-flow recapture.  The Term
Facility is secured by all of our tangible and intangible  assets.  In addition,
we also amended our $17 million demand line of credit with our Factor.

      Interest expense and finance costs, net of interest income, increased from
$1.6 million in the nine month period ending  September 30, 2005 to $2.4 million
during the September 30, 2006 period.  The increase was due to higher  borrowing
costs associated with the Term Facility  described above as compared to the debt
service in place (interest on notes payable) in the same period in 2005.

      Income before income taxes from continuing  operations for the nine months
ended September 30, 2006 was $4.8 million compared to approximately $1.9 million
for the nine month period ended September 30, 2005. The increase was primarily a
result  of  higher   operating  income  along  with  the  gain  from  the  early
extinguishment  of  our  debt  instruments  (which  was a tax  free  event),  as
explained above.

      We  recognized  a tax  provision of $1.3 million for the nine months ended
September  30, 2006 as compared to  approximately  $678,000  for the nine months
ended  September 30, 2005. We expect our tax rate to be  approximately  40% this
year, exclusive of the nontaxable gain on extinguishment.

      Net income from  continuing  operations was $3.6 million in the nine-month
period ended  September  30, 2006 as compared to a net income of $1.2 million in
the same period in 2005.  During the nine months ended  September  30, 2005,  we
incurred a loss, net of tax, from the  discontinued  components of $1.7 million.
We did not incur any costs  associated with our  discontinued  components in the
2006 period presented. Our net loss for the nine months ended September 30, 2005
from continuing and discontinued operations was $515,000.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

      We finance our operations and growth  primarily with cash flows  generated
from operations and from the  availability to borrow from our $17 million demand
line of credit.

      Net cash  provided  by  operating  activities  for the nine  months  ended
September  30, 2006 was $5.9  million as  compared to $5.1  million for the nine
months ended September 30, 2005. This increase was primarily  attributable to an
increase in our net income of  approximately  $2.0 million  (excluding  the gain
from  the  early  redemption  of all  of our  outstanding  Preferred  Stock  and
prepayment  of all of our notes  payable  issued in  relation  to the  Preferred
Stock.) offset by $600,000 in lower depreciation and amortization  expense.  Net
cash used for investing  activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2006
was  $350,000 as compared to $303,000 for the nine months  ended  September  30,
2005.

      During the nine months  ended  September  30,  2006,  our primary need for
funds was to finance  working  capital and for the  repayment of the  borrowings
from our Factor.  Borrowings  from our Factor during the year ended December 31,
2005 were used to redeem the then $3 million Preferred Stock redemption feature,
along with  interest and finance  costs of $.8  million.  During the nine months
ended  September  30,  2006,  we repaid the Factor  $7.1  million  reducing  our
outstanding obligation to $5.9 million at September 30, 2006.

      Cash used in  financing  activities  was $5.4  million  for the nine month
period ended  September  30, 2006 as compared to $5.3 million for the nine month
period ended  September 30, 2005. As disclosed  above,  we entered into the Term
Facility to redeem all of our outstanding  Preferred Stock and repaid all of our
outstanding notes payable issued in relation to the Preferred Stock, together in
the aggregate  amount of $22.7 million,  along with deferred  financing costs of
$2.1  million.  Aside from these  changes,  the  increase in  financing  uses is
primarily  due to  aforementioned  repayment  of  borrowings  from  our  Factor,
repayments of our other debt  instruments  of $1.4  million,  offset by proceeds
from  exercises of stock options of $2.9 million  during the  nine-month  period
ended September 30, 2006.

      At September 30, 2006, cash and cash equivalents was $261,000  compared to
$58,000 at December 31, 2005.  Working capital was $3.0 million at September 30,
2006 compared to $300,000 at December 31, 2005, primarily the result of the cash
infusion resulting from the exercise of stock options.

      Management  anticipates it will generate and maintain  sufficient cash and
cash equivalent  balances,  along with availability under our $17 million demand
line of credit from our  Factor,  although  no  assurance  to that effect can be
given, to fund our contractual  obligations and working capital needs.  Positive
cash flow, if it occurs,  will create  working  capital to fund our  anticipated
growth over the next 12 months and our  contractual  obligations  related to our
debt instruments scheduled  maturities.  If a positive cash flow does not occur,
there will be a decrease in cash and cash equivalent  balances and/or borrowings
with the Factor and/or other lenders will increase.
