NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Three Months Ended March 31, 2007 and 2006
(unaudited)
Note 1 — Interim Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements, Accounting Policies and
           New Accounting Pronouncements
     Interim Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements. The interim condensed consolidated financial statements of The Hallwood Group Incorporated and its subsidiaries (the “Company”) (AMEX: HWG) have been prepared in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q and do not include all of the information and disclosures required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Although condensed, in the opinion of management, all adjustments considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. These condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and related disclosures thereto included in Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2006.
     Organization. The Company is a holding company that currently operates in the textile products and energy business segments.
     Textile Products. Textile products operations are conducted through the Company’s wholly owned Brookwood Companies Incorporated subsidiary (“Brookwood”). Brookwood is an integrated textile firm that develops and produces innovative fabrics and related products through specialized finishing, treating and coating processes. Brookwood’s subsidiary, Strategic Technical Alliance, LLC (“STA”) markets advanced breathable, waterproof laminate and other fabrics primarily for military applications. Continued development of these fabrics for military, industrial and consumer applications is a key element of Brookwood’s business plan.
     Textile products accounts for substantially all of the Company’s operating revenues.
     Energy. Prior to December 31, 2005, the Company had investments in Hallwood Energy Corporation (“HEC”), which was sold in December 2004 and Hallwood Energy III, L.P. (“HE III”), which was sold in July 2005, Hallwood Energy II, L.P. (“HE II”), Hallwood Energy 4, L.P. (“HE 4”) and Hallwood Exploration, L.P. (“Hallwood Exploration”). The Company owned between 20% and 28% of the entities (between 16% and 22% on a fully diluted basis) and accounted for the investments using the equity method of accounting, recording its pro rata share of net income (loss), stockholders’ equity/partners’ capital transaction and comprehensive income (loss).
     Effective December 31, 2005, HE II and Hallwood Exploration were consolidated into HE 4, which was renamed Hallwood Energy, L.P. (“Hallwood Energy”). At the consolidation date, Hallwood Energy was principally involved in acquiring oil and gas leases and drilling, gathering and sale of natural gas in the Barnett Shale formation located in Parker, Hood and Tarrant Counties in North Texas and the Barnett Shale and Woodford Shale formations in Reeves and Culberson Counties in West Texas and in the Fayetteville Shale formation of Central Eastern Arkansas, and conducting 3-D seismic surveys over optioned land covering a Salt Dome in South Louisiana in order to determine how best to proceed with exploratory activity.
     Following the completion of the energy consolidation on December 31, 2005, all energy activities are conducted by Hallwood Energy. Subsequent to the July 2006 sale of its properties in North Texas (discussed below), Hallwood Energy’s management has classified its energy investments into three identifiable areas: Central Eastern Arkansas, South Louisiana and West Texas.
     In June 2006, Hallwood Energy completed the sale of a 60% undivided working interest in its oil and gas properties in Reeves and Culberson Counties in West Texas and all of its interest in the properties in Parker, Hood and Tarrant Counties in North Texas to Chesapeake Energy Corporation (“Chesapeake”). Chesapeake assumed operation of these properties. See Note 3.
     At March 31, 2007, the Company owned approximately 25% (20% after consideration of profit interests) of Hallwood Energy.
     New Accounting Pronouncements.
     In June 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued FASB Interpretation No. 48, “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes” (“FIN 48”). The Company adopted the provisions of FIN 48 on January 1, 2007. FIN 48 clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in an enterprise’s financial statements in accordance with FASB Statement No. 109, “Accounting for Income Taxes”, and prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement process for financial

(unaudited)
statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. FIN 48 also provides guidance on derecognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosure and transition.
     The Company has completed its evaluation and has determined that there are no significant uncertain tax positions requiring recognition in its consolidated financial statements. The evaluation was performed for the tax years ended December 31, 2003, 2004, 2005 and 2006, the tax years which remain subject to examination by major tax jurisdictions as of March 31, 2007. The Company does not believe there will be any material changes in its unrecognized tax positions over the next 12 months.
     The Company may from time to time be assessed interest or penalties by major tax jurisdictions, although any such assessments historically have been minimal and immaterial to its financial results. In the event the Company incurs interest and/or penalties, they will be classified in the financial statements as interest expense or administrative and selling expense, respectively.

     At March 31, 2007, the Company owned approximately 25% (20% after consideration of profit interests) of Hallwood Energy. The Company accounts for this investment using the equity method of accounting and records its pro rata share of Hallwood Energy’s net income (loss) and partner capital transactions.
     Hallwood Energy is an upstream energy partnership engaging in the acquisition, development, exploration, production, and sale of hydrocarbons, with a primary focus on natural gas assets. Hallwood Energy’s results of operations are and will be largely dependent on a variety of variable factors, including, but not limited to fluctuations in natural gas prices; success of its exploratory drilling activities; the ability to transport and sell its natural gas; regional and national regulatory matters; and the ability to secure, and price of, goods and services necessary to develop its oil and gas leases.

     In July 2006, Hallwood Energy completed the sale of a 60% undivided working interest in its oil and gas properties in Reeves and Culberson Counties in West Texas and all of its interest in the properties in Parker, Hood and Tarrant Counties in North Texas to Chesapeake. Chesapeake assumed operation of these properties. Following the July 2006 sale, Hallwood Energy’s management classified its energy investments into three identifiable areas: Delaware Basin, Texas; South Louisiana and East Arkansas.
     Certain of the Company’s officers and directors are investors in Hallwood Energy. In addition, as members of management of Hallwood Energy, one director and officer and one officer of the Company hold a profit interest in Hallwood Energy.
     A description of Hallwood Energy’s activities during 2007 are provided below.
     Loan Financing. In February 2006, Hallwood Energy entered into a $65,000,000 loan facility, and had drawn $40,000,000 as of December 31, 2006. Subsequent to December 31, 2006, Hallwood Energy was not in compliance with the proved collateral coverage ratio.
     In March 2007 and April 2007, the Company advanced $5,000,000 and $4,000,000, respectively, to Hallwood Energy, of which $7,000,000 was in the form of demand notes bearing interest at 6% above prime rate, and $2,000,000 was an advance that was repaid four days later with interest. In April 2007, Hallwood Energy made a request for additional capital contributions in the amount of $25,000,000 (the “April Call”). The Company and Hallwood Energy had agreed that the $7,000,000 amount previously advanced would be applied as the Company’s portion of this capital call. On May 10, 2007, Hallwood Energy repaid $257,000 to the Company, which represented the excess of the $7,000,000 advanced over the Company’s share of the capital contribution and related oversubscription.
     In April 2007, Hallwood Energy entered into a $100,000,000 senior secured credit facility (the “Credit Facility”) with an affiliate of one of the investors and drew $65,000,000 from the Credit Facility. The proceeds were used to repay $40,000,000 in an existing note payable, pay approximately $9,800,000 for a make-whole fee and incremental interest of approximately $500,000 to the original lender related to the $40,000,000 note payable, and transaction fees of approximately $200,000. Borrowings under the Credit Facility are secured by Hallwood Energy’s oil and gas leases, mature on February 1, 2010, and bear interest at a rate of the defined LIBOR rate plus 10.75% per annum. An additional 2% of interest is added upon continuance of any defaulting event. The new lender may demand that Hallwood Energy prepay the outstanding loans in the event of a defined change of control, qualified sale or event of default, including a material adverse event. In conjunction with executing the Credit Facility, the new lender resigned its position on the board of directors and assigned its general partner interest to the remaining members.
     Provided that Hallwood Energy raises $25,000,000 through an equity call or through debt subordinate to the Credit Facility (discussed below), the new lender will match subsequent amounts raised on a dollar for dollar basis up to the remaining $35,000,000 under the Credit Facility through the availability termination date of July 31, 2008. Hallwood Energy successfully completed the $25,000,000 April Call in May 2007, of which the Company contributed $6,743,000.
     The Credit Facility contains various financial covenants, including maximum general and administrative expenditures and current and proved collateral coverage ratios. The proved collateral coverage ratio is effective June 30, 2008. Non-financial covenants restrict the ability of Hallwood Energy to dispose of assets, incur additional indebtedness, prepay other indebtedness or amend certain debt instruments, pay dividends, create liens on assets, enter into sale and leaseback transactions, make investments, loans or advances, make acquisitions, engage in mergers or consolidations or engage in certain transactions with affiliates, and otherwise restrict certain activities by Hallwood Energy.
     The Credit Facility contains a make-whole provision whereby Hallwood Energy is required to pay the lender the amount by which the present value of interest and principal from the date of prepayment through January 31, 2009, exceeds the principal amount on the prepayment date. The lender received warrants exercisable for 2.5% of the partnership interests at an exercise price of 2.5% of 125% of the amount of the total capital contributed to Hallwood Energy at December 31, 2006.
     Equity Investments. In November 2006, Hallwood Energy requested an additional capital contribution in the amount of $25,000,000 from its partners. The Company invested an additional $6,281,000 to maintain its proportionate interest in Hallwood Energy. The Company utilized a $452,000 capital contribution receivable to reduce its cash contribution to $5,829,000. In addition, certain other investors in Hallwood Energy did not elect to fund their proportionate interest of the additional capital contribution; therefore, in December 2006, the Company invested an additional $425,000 and $2,000 in January 2007 in excess of its proportionate interest. These contributions were made from existing cash.

     Hallwood Energy issued the $25,000,000 April Call to its partners on April 14, 2007. Previously, Hallwood Energy received cash advances of $7,000,000 each from the Company and an affiliate of the new lender. These advances were applied to the April Call. In May, Hallwood Energy repaid $257,000 to the Company, which represented the excess of the $7,000,000 advanced over the Company’s share of the capital contribution and related oversubscription.
     Hallwood Energy issued a $20,000,000 equity call to its partners on May 21, 2007 (the “May Call”), which is due on July 1, 2007. The Company’s proportionate share of the equity call is $5,091,000. The Company currently intends to fund approximately $2,500,000 of the May Call, but does not have funds available to contribute substantial additional capital in connection with that or future calls.
     For the funds received as a result of the April Call and the May Call, Hallwood Energy issued or will issue preferred partnership interests that will have a preferential right to any distributions made by Hallwood Energy from operations or upon liquidation. The preferential right will be equal to the amount of the capital contributed with respect to the preferred interest plus 16% per annum, compounded monthly. The preferred interests will receive this priority return before any amounts are paid to the common interests issued for all previous investments in Hallwood Energy. The capital contributed plus the accumulated 16% return attributable to any preferred interest is also convertible to common partnership interests at any time at a price equal to the price of the common partnership interests at December 31, 2006. Distributions on the preferred partnership interests will initially be accrued and become payable when, as and if declared by the general partner of Hallwood Energy. Hallwood Energy does not anticipate paying any distributions in the foreseeable future.
     In April 2007, Hallwood Investments Limited (“HIL”), a corporation associated with Mr. Anthony J. Gumbiner the Company’s chairman and principal stockholder, and the new lender have each committed to fund one-half of the April Call and potential additional equity or subordinated debt funding calls totaling $55,000,000 by Hallwood Energy, to the extent other investors, including the Company, do not respond to a call. Pursuant to this commitment, HIL intends to fund that portion of the May Call that the Company does not fund. The Company and Mr. Gumbiner have agreed to discuss in the future the terms on which HIL will make this funding as between the Company and HIL.
     Litigation. In early 2006, Hallwood Energy entered into two two-year contracts with Eagle Drilling, LLC (subsequently Eagle Drilling Operations, LLC), under which the contractor was to provide drilling rigs and crews to drill wells in Arkansas at a daily rate of $18,500, plus certain expenses for each rig. In August 2006, one of the rigs provided by the contractor collapsed. Hallwood Energy requested the contractor to provide assurances that the other rig, and any rig provided to replace the collapsed rig, were safe and met the requirements of the contracts. When the contractor refused to provide these assurances, Hallwood Energy notified the contractor that the contracts were terminated and on September 6, 2006, filed Hallwood Petroleum, LLC and Hallwood Energy, L.P. v. Eagle Drilling, LLC and Eagle Domestic Drilling Operations, LLC, in the 348th District Court of Tarrant County, Texas to recover approximately $1,688,000 previously deposited with the contractor under the contracts. Eagle Domestic Drilling Operations, LLC has asserted damages in excess of $22,000,000 against Hallwood Energy, principally for breach of contract. Eagle Domestic Drilling Operations, LLC and its parent have since filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection. Hallwood Energy is currently unable to determine the impact of this matter on its results of operations and financial position.

Borrowings are collateralized by accounts receivable, certain finished goods inventory, machinery and equipment and all of the issued and outstanding capital stock of Brookwood and its subsidiaries. The facility (after the renewal discussed below) bears interest at Brookwood’s option of Prime, or Libor plus 1.25% — 1.75% (variable depending on compliance ratios) and contains various

covenants. The interest rate was a blended rate of 7.21% and 7.16% at March 31, 2007 and December 31, 2006, respectively. The outstanding balance at March 31, 2007 was $13,686,000 and Brookwood had approximately $8,314,000 of borrowing availability under this facility.
     Equipment Term Loans. Brookwood has a revolving equipment credit facility in an amount up to $3,000,000 with Key Bank. Interest rates for the equipment loans varied between 5.60% and 8.60%, with a blended rate of 7.02% and 7.17% at March 31, 2007 and December 31, 2006, respectively. The outstanding balance at March 31, 2007 was $369,000 and Brookwood had $2,631,000 of borrowing availability under this facility.
     Loan Covenants. As of the end of the first quarter in 2007 and all of the quarters in 2006, Brookwood was in compliance with its loan covenants. The Key Working Capital Revolving Credit Facility provides for a total debt to tangible net worth ratio covenant and a covenant that Brookwood shall maintain a quarterly minimum net income of not less than one dollar. Cash dividends and tax sharing payments to the Company are contingent upon Brookwood’s compliance with the covenants contained in the loan agreement.
     Renewal of Credit Facilities. Both of the Key Bank facilities, which had original maturities of January 2007, were renewed in March 2006 for a period of three years with a new maturity of January 30, 2010. The amounts of the respective facilities and the loan covenants were unchanged; however, the interest rate on the Key Working Capital Revolving Credit Facility was reduced, at Brookwood’s option, from Prime plus 0.25% or Libor plus 1.75% — 3.00% (variable depending on compliance ratios).
Note 5 — Stockholders’ Equity
     Stock Options. The Company established the 1995 Stock Option Plan for The Hallwood Group Incorporated which authorized the granting of nonqualified stock options to employees, directors and consultants of the Company. The 1995 Plan authorized options to purchase up to 244,800 shares of common stock of the Company. The exercise prices of all options granted were at the fair market value of the Company’s stock on the date of grant, had an expiration date of ten years from date of grant and were fully vested on the date of grant.
     At March 31, 2007, the Company had 12,000 fully vested outstanding options, of which 7,500 expire in September 2007 and 4,500 expire in May 2010. The 1995 Stock Option Plan terminated on June 27, 2005. Options issued prior to the termination are not affected, however, no new options can be issued under the 1995 Plan.
     In January 2007, one officer of the Company exercised options to purchase 2,250 shares of the Company’s common stock that were scheduled to expire in February 2007. The officer paid the exercise price and related tax withholding requirement by exchanging an equivalent number of common shares valued at the fair market value of the common stock at the time of exercise. The net result of the exercise and exchange was the issuance of 1,273 shares from treasury at an average carrying value of $14.97 per share.

     The net deferred tax asset was $5,571,000 and $1,655,000 at March 31, 2007 and December 31, 2006, respectively. The deferred tax asset was comprised of projected taxable losses that can be carried back for a refund, temporary differences, that upon reversal, can be utilized to offset income from operations and $531,000 of alternative minimum tax credits. The effective federal tax rate in both periods was 34%, while state taxes were determined based upon taxable income apportioned to those states in which the Company does business at their respective tax rates.
     Prepaid federal income taxes, attributable to the anticipated carryback of its 2006 taxable loss was $3,861,000 at March 31, 2007 and December 31, 2006. The Company filed an application for tentative refund with the Internal Revenue Service in March 2007 and received a $1,000,000 refund in April 2007. The Company expects to file a carryback of its 2006 taxable loss to obtain an additional refund in September 2007.

     Due to the loss for the three months ended March 31, 2007, potential shares from assumed exercise of stock options in the amount of 7,000 shares were antidilutive.
Note 9 — Litigation, Contingencies and Commitments
     Reference is made to Note 20 to the consolidated financial statements contained in Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2006.
     Litigation. From time to time, the Company, certain of its affiliates and others have been named as defendants in lawsuits relating to various transactions in which it or its affiliated entities participated. In the Company’s opinion, no litigation in which the Company, subsidiaries or affiliates is a party is likely to have a material adverse effect on its financial condition, results of operation or cash flows.
     Hallwood Energy. As a significant investor in Hallwood Energy, the Company may be impacted by litigation involving Hallwood Energy. Refer to Note 3 for a further description of certain litigation involving Hallwood Energy.
     Environmental Contingencies. A number of jurisdictions in which the Company operates have adopted laws and regulations relating to environmental matters. Such laws and regulations may require the Company to secure governmental permits and approvals and undertake measures to comply therewith. Compliance with the requirements imposed may be time-consuming and costly. While environmental considerations, by themselves, have not significantly affected the Company’s business to date, it is possible that such considerations may have a significant and adverse impact in the future. The Company actively monitors its environmental compliance and while certain matters currently exist, management is not aware of any compliance issues which will significantly impact the financial position, operations or cash flows of the Company.
     In August 2005, the Rhode Island Department of Health (“RIDOH”) issued a compliance order to Kenyon, alleging that Kenyon is a non-community water system and ordering Kenyon to comply with the RIDOH program for public water supply systems. Kenyon contested the compliance order and an administrative hearing was held in November 2005. No decision has been rendered. Complying with the RIDOH requirements would necessitate revamping of the plant’s water supply system and associated costs of approximately $100,000.
     In August 2005, Brookwood received a Notice of Alleged Violation from The Rhode Island Department of Environmental Management (“RIDEM”) with notification that Brookwood had failed to comply timely with a requirement to test the destruction efficiency of a thermal oxidizer at its Kenyon plant and that when the test was conducted the equipment was not operating at the required efficiency. Since that time, Brookwood has upgraded and retested the equipment, which met the requirements on the retest. RIDEM has requested additional information regarding the failed test and Brookwood’s remedial actions, which Kenyon has provided. In February 2007, RIDEM issued a Notice of Violation (“NOV”) accompanied by a $14,000 fine. Kenyon requested an informal hearing to dispute the allegations in the NOV and the fine. As a result of the informal hearing held on March 30, 2007, a consent agreement was executed and a $9,500 fine was remitted to RIDEM to close this matter.

THE HALLWOOD GROUP INCORPORATED AND SUBSIDIARIES
Item 2.   MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Overview
     General. The Company is a holding company with interests in textiles and energy. Although the Company’s textile activities have generated positive cash flow in recent years, there is no assurance that this trend will continue. In addition, Hallwood Energy will require significant additional capital investment over the next few years to acquire additional properties and to adequately explore and develop existing and any new properties.
     Textile Products. The Company derives substantially all of its operating revenues from the textile activities of its Brookwood Companies Incorporated (“Brookwood”) subsidiary; consequently, the Company’s success is highly dependent upon Brookwood’s success. Brookwood’s success will be influenced in varying degrees by its ability to continue sales to existing customers, cost and availability of supplies, Brookwood’s response to competition, its ability to generate new markets and products and the effect of global trade regulation.
     While Brookwood has enjoyed substantial growth in its military business, there is no assurance this trend will continue. Brookwood’s sales to the customers from whom it derives its military business have been more volatile and difficult to predict, a trend the Company believes will continue. In recent years, orders from the military for goods generally were significantly affected by the increased activity of the U.S. military. If this activity does not continue or declines, then orders from the military generally, including orders for Brookwood’s products, may be similarly affected. Military sales of $12,036,000 for the 2007 first quarter were 23.5% lower than the comparable period amount of $15,728,000 in 2006.
     The military has recently limited orders for existing products and adopted revised specifications for new products to replace the products for which Brookwood’s customers have been suppliers. While any change in specifications or orders presents a potential opportunity for additional sales, it is a continuing challenge to adjust to changing specifications and production requirements. Brookwood is currently conducting research and development on various processes and products intended to comply with the revised specifications and participating in the bidding process for new military products. The U.S. government has recently released orders for goods that include Brookwood’s products. However, to the extent Brookwood’s products are not included in future purchases by the U.S. government for any reason, Brookwood’s sales could be adversely affected. In addition, the U.S. government is releasing contracts for shorter periods than in the past. Therefore, the Company is unable at this time to predict future sales trends.
     Unstable global nylon and chemical pricing, coupled with domestic energy costs, are causing overall cost increases, which, together with product mix, have negatively impacted Brookwood’s margins, a trend that appears likely to continue.
     Brookwood continues to identify new market niches intended to replace sales lost to importers. In addition to its existing products and proprietary technologies, Brookwood has been developing advanced breathable, waterproof laminate and other materials, which have been well received by its customers. Continued development of these fabrics for military, industrial and consumer applications is a key element of Brookwood’s business plan. The ongoing enterprise value of Brookwood is contingent on its ability to maintain its level of military business and adapt to the global textile industry; however, there can be no assurance that the positive results of the past can be sustained or that competitors will not aggressively seek to replace products developed by Brookwood.
     The textile industry is also significantly affected by legislation and administrative actions restricting or liberalizing trade among world textile producing and consuming countries such as the North American Free Trade Agreement (“NAFTA”), the World Trade Organization (“WTO”), the anti-dumping and countervailing duty remedies and enforcement activities by the U.S. Government, and the value of the U.S. dollar in relation to other currencies and world economic developments. However, under NAFTA there are no textile and apparel quotas between the U.S. and either Mexico or Canada for products that meet certain origin criteria. Tariffs among the three countries are either already zero or are being phased out. Also, the WTO recently phased out textile and apparel quotas.
     The U.S. has also approved the Central American-Dominican Republic Free Trade Agreement (“CAFTA”) with five Central American countries (Costa Rica, El Salvador, Guatemala, Honduras and Nicaragua). Under CAFTA, textiles and apparel originating from CAFTA countries will be duty and quota-free, provided that yarn formed in the U.S. or other CAFTA-DR countries is used to produce the fabric. In addition, the United States recently implemented bilateral free trade agreements with Bahrain, Chile, Israel, Jordan, Morocco and Singapore. Although these actions have the effect of exposing Brookwood’s market to the lower price structures of the other countries and, therefore, continuing to increase competitive pressures, management is not able to predict their specific impact.

Item 2.   MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
     The textile products business is not interdependent with the Company’s other business operations. The Company does not guarantee the Brookwood bank facility and is not obligated to contribute additional capital.
     Energy. Hallwood Energy is an upstream energy partnership engaging in the acquisition, development, exploration, production, and sale of hydrocarbons, with a primary focus on natural gas assets. Hallwood Energy’s results of operations are and will be largely dependent on a variety of variable factors, including, but not limited to fluctuations in natural gas prices; success of its exploratory drilling activities; the ability to transport and sell its natural gas; regional and national regulatory matters; and the ability to secure, and price of, goods and services necessary to develop its oil and gas leases. As of March 31, 2007, the Company owned approximately 25% (20% after consideration of profits interests) of Hallwood Energy.
     Refer also to the section “Investments in Energy Affiliates” for a further description of the Company’s energy activities.
     Presentation
     The Company intends the discussion of its financial condition and results of operations that follows to provide information that will assist in understanding its financial statements, the changes in certain key items in those financial statements from year to year, and the primary factors that accounted for those changes, as well as how certain accounting principles, policies and estimates affect its financial statements.
     Results of Operations
     The net loss for the 2007 first quarter was $7,324,000, compared to net income of $464,000 in 2006. Revenue for the 2007 first quarter was $28,308,000, compared to $30,775,000 in 2006.
     Revenues
     Textile products sales of $28,308,000 decreased by $2,467,000, or 8.0%, in the 2007 first quarter, compared to $30,775,000, in 2006. The decrease was principally due to a decline of sales of specialty fabric to U.S. military contractors as a result of decreased orders from the military to Brookwood’s customers, because of a limitation by the military for orders of existing products and the adoption of revised specifications for new products to replace the products for which Brookwood’s customers have been suppliers. The decline in military sales was partially offset by Brookwood’s development and marketing of new products and continued upgrade of its production equipment.
     Sales to one customer, Tennier Industries, Inc. (“Tennier”) accounted for more than 10% of Brookwood’s net sales during both the 2007 and 2006 periods. Its relationship with Tennier is ongoing. Sales to Tennier, which are included in military sales, were $6,895,000 in the 2007 first quarter, compared to $9,544,000 in 2006, which represented 24.4% and 31.0% of its net sales, respectively. Sales to another customer, ORC Industries, Inc. (“ORC”) accounted for more than 10% of Brookwood’s sales in 2006. Its relationship with ORC is ongoing. Sales to ORC, which are also included in military sales, were $2,206,000 in the 2007 first quarter, compared to $3,830,000 in 2006, which represented 7.8% and 12.4% of its net sales, respectively.
     Through 2005, military sales, including the sales to Tennier and ORC, generally comprised an increased portion of Brookwood’s total sales and a greater share of gross profit. However, Brookwood has experienced reduced military sales since 2005. Military sales accounted for $12,036,000 and $15,728,000 in the 2007 and 2006 first quarters, respectively, which represented 42.5% and 51.1% of its net sales, respectively.

     Expenses
     Textile products cost of sales of $24,289,000 for the 2007 first quarter decreased by $530,000, or 2.1%, compared to $24,819,000 in 2006. The 2007 decrease principally resulted from reduced sales, changes in product mix and decreased energy costs of $137,000. Cost of sales includes all costs associated with the manufacturing process, including but not limited to, materials, labor, utilities, depreciation on manufacturing equipment and all costs associated with the purchase, receipt and transportation of goods and materials to Brookwood’s facilities, including inbound freight, purchasing and receiving costs, inspection costs, internal transfer costs and other costs of the distribution network. Brookwood believes that the reporting and composition of cost of sales and gross margin is comparable with similar companies in the textile converting and finishing industry.
     The reduced gross profit margin for the 2007 first quarter (14.2% versus 19.4%) principally resulted from changes in customer volume and product mix.
     Administrative and selling expenses were comprised of the following (in thousands):

     Textile products administrative and selling expenses of $3,521,000 for the 2007 first quarter increased by $40,000, or 1.1%, from the 2006 amount of $3,481,000. The increase was primarily attributable to higher professional fees in 2007. The textile products administrative and selling expenses included items such as payroll, professional fees, sales commissions, marketing, rent, insurance, travel and royalties. Brookwood conducts research and development activities related to the exploration, development and production of innovative products and technologies. Research and development costs were approximately $174,000 and $123,000 in the 2007 and 2006 quarters, respectively.
     Corporate administrative expenses were $1,083,000 for the 2007 first quarter, compared to $1,169,000 for 2006. The decrease of $86,000, or 7.4%, was principally attributable to reduced professional fees of $141,000 and lower reimbursement of office expenses to HIL of $65,000, partially offset by an increase in Sarbanes Oxley costs of $65,000.
     Other Income (Loss)
     Equity loss from the Company’s investments in Hallwood Energy, related to the Company’s pro rata share of loss in Hallwood Energy, was $10,503,000 in the 2007 first quarter, compared to $350,000 in 2006. In the 2007 first quarter, Hallwood Energy recorded an impairment of $31,680,000 associated with its oil and gas properties and accrued $7,100,000 as a portion of a make-whole fee in connection with a May 2007 prepayment of a loan. The make-whole fee was included in interest expense. The Company earned interest income of $12,000 in the 2007 first quarter from a loan it made to Hallwood Energy in March 2007. The 2006 results for Hallwood Energy include production from two wells in the Fort Worth Basin.
     Interest expense of $226,000 in the 2007 first quarter and $117,000 for the 2006 quarter, principally relates to Brookwood’s Key Bank revolving credit facility. The increase in interest expense was principally due to an increase in the average outstanding loan amount and higher interest rates.
     Interest and other income was $181,000 in the 2007 first quarter, compared to $108,000 in 2006. The 2007 increase was principally due to the gain from the sale of a marketable security sold in March 2007, partially offset by reduced interest income earned on lower balances of cash and cash equivalents.

     At March 31, 2007, the deferred tax asset was attributable to projected taxable losses that can be carried back for a refund, temporary differences, that upon reversal, could be utilized to offset income from operations and alternative minimum tax credits. The effective federal tax rate in both periods was 34%, while state taxes are determined based upon taxable income apportioned to those states in which the Company does business at their respective tax rates.
     Investments in and Loans to Hallwood Energy, L.P.
     At March 31, 2007, the Company owned approximately 25% (20% after consideration of profits interests) of Hallwood Energy. The Company accounts for this investment using the equity method of accounting and records its pro rata share of Hallwood Energy’s net income (loss) and partner capital transactions.
     A description of Hallwood Energy’s activities during 2007 are provided below.
     Loan Financing. In February 2006, Hallwood Energy entered into a $65,000,000 loan facility, and had drawn $40,000,000 as of December 31, 2006. Subsequent to December 31, 2006, Hallwood Energy was not in compliance with the proved collateral coverage ratio.
     In March and April 2007, the Company advanced a total of $5,000,000 and $4,000,000, respectively, to Hallwood Energy, of which $7,000,000 was in the form of demand notes bearing interest at 6% above prime rate, and $2,000,000 was an advance that was repaid four days later with interest. In April 2007, Hallwood Energy made a request for additional capital contributions in the amount of $25,000,000 (the “April Call”). The Company and Hallwood Energy had agreed that the $7,000,000 amount previously advanced would be applied as the Company’s portion of this capital call. On May 10, 2007, Hallwood Energy repaid $257,000 to the Company, which represented the excess of the $7,000,000 advanced over the Company’s share of the capital contribution and related oversubscription.
     In April 2007, Hallwood Energy entered into a $100,000,000 senior secured credit facility (the “Credit Facility”) with an affiliate of one of the investors and drew $65,000,000 from the Credit Facility. The proceeds were used to repay $40,000,000 in an existing note payable, pay approximately $9,800,000 for a make-whole fee and incremental interest of approximately $500,000 to the original lender related to the $40,000,000 note payable, and transaction fees of approximately $200,000. Borrowings under the Credit Facility are secured by Hallwood Energy’s oil and gas leases, mature on February 1, 2010, and bear interest at a rate of the defined LIBOR rate plus 10.75% per annum. An additional 2% of interest is added upon continuance of any defaulting event. The new lender may demand that Hallwood Energy prepay the outstanding loans in the event of a defined change of control, qualified sale or event of default, including a material adverse event. In conjunction with executing the Credit Facility, the new lender resigned its position on the board of directors and assigned its general partner interest to the remaining members.
     Provided that Hallwood Energy raises $25,000,000 through an equity call or through debt subordinate to the Credit Facility (discussed below), the new lender will match subsequent amounts raised on a dollar for dollar basis up to the remaining

Item 2.   MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
$35,000,000 under the Credit Facility through the availability termination date of July 31, 2008. Hallwood Energy successfully completed the April Call in May 2007, of which the Company contributed $6,743,000.
     The Credit Facility contains various financial covenants, including maximum general and administrative expenditures and current and proved collateral coverage ratios. The proved collateral coverage ratio is effective June 30, 2008. Non-financial covenants restrict the ability of Hallwood Energy to dispose of assets, incur additional indebtedness, prepay other indebtedness or amend certain debt instruments, pay dividends, create liens on assets, enter into sale and leaseback transactions, make investments, loans or advances, make acquisitions, engage in mergers or consolidations or engage in certain transactions with affiliates, and otherwise restrict certain activities by Hallwood Energy.
     The Credit Facility contains a make-whole provision whereby Hallwood Energy is required to pay the lender the amount by which the present value of interest and principal from the date of prepayment through January 31, 2009, exceeds the principal amount on the prepayment date. The lender received warrants exercisable for 2.5% of the partnership interests at an exercise price of 2.5% of 125% of the amount of the total capital contributed to Hallwood Energy at December 31, 2006.
     Equity Investments. In November 2006, Hallwood Energy requested an additional capital contribution in the amount of $25,000,000 from its partners. The Company invested an additional $6,281,000 to maintain its proportionate interest in Hallwood Energy. The Company utilized a $452,000 capital contribution receivable to reduce its cash contribution to $5,829,000. In addition, certain other investors in Hallwood Energy did not elect to fund their proportionate interest of the additional capital contribution; therefore, in December 2006, the Company invested an additional $425,000 and $2,000 in January 2007 in excess of its proportionate interest. These contributions were made.
     Hallwood Energy issued a $25,000,000 equity call, the April Call, to its partners on April 14, 2007. Previously, Hallwood Energy received cash advances of $7,000,000 each from the Company and an affiliate of the new lender. These advances were applied to the April Call. In May, Hallwood Energy repaid $257,000 to the Company, which represented the excess of the $7,000,000 advanced over the Company’s share of the capital contribution and related oversubscription.
     Hallwood Energy issued a $20,000,000 equity call to its partners on May 21, 2007 (the “May Call”), which is due on July 1, 2007. The Company’s proportionate share of the equity call is $5,091,000. The Company anticipates that it will contribute $2,500,000 towards the May Call, but does not have funds available to contribute substantial additional capital in connection with that or future calls.
     For the funds received as a result of the April Call and the May Call, Hallwood Energy issued or will issue preferred partnership interests that will have a preferential right to any distributions made by Hallwood Energy from operations or upon liquidation. The preferential right will be equal to the amount of the capital contributed with respect to the preferred interest plus 16% per annum, compounded monthly. The preferred interests will receive this priority return before any amounts are paid to the common interests issued for all previous investments in Hallwood Energy. The capital contributed plus the accumulated 16% return attributable to any preferred interest is also convertible to common partnership interests at any time at a price equal to the price of the common partnership interests at December 31, 2006. Distributions on the preferred partnership interests will initially be accrued and become payable when, as and if declared by the general partner of Hallwood Energy. Hallwood Energy does not anticipate paying any distributions in the foreseeable future.
     In April 2007, Hallwood Investments Limited (“HIL”), a corporation associated with Mr. Anthony J. Gumbiner the Company’s chairman and principal stockholder, and the new lender have each committed to fund one-half of the April Call and potential additional equity or subordinated debt funding calls totaling $55,000,000 by Hallwood Energy, to the extent other investors, including the Company, do not respond to a call. Pursuant to this commitment, HIL intends to fund that portion of the May Call that the Company does not fund. The Company and Mr. Gumbiner have agreed to discuss in the future the terms on which HIL will make this funding as between the Company and HIL.
     Litigation. In early 2006, Hallwood Energy entered into two two-year contracts with Eagle Drilling, LLC (subsequently Eagle Drilling Operations, LLC), under which the contractor was to provide drilling rigs and crews to drill wells in Arkansas at a daily rate of $18,500, plus certain expenses for each rig. In August 2006, one of the rigs provided by the contractor collapsed. Hallwood Energy requested the contractor to provide assurances that the other rig, and any rig provided to replace the collapsed rig, were safe and met the requirements of the contracts. When the contractor refused to provide these assurances, Hallwood Energy notified the contractor that the contracts were terminated and on September 6, 2006, filed Hallwood Petroleum, LLC and Hallwood Energy, L.P. v. Eagle Drilling, LLC and Eagle Domestic Drilling Operations, LLC, in the 348th District Court of Tarrant County, Texas to recover approximately $1,688,000 previously deposited with the contractor under the contracts. Eagle Domestic Drilling Operations, LLC has asserted damages in excess of $22,000,000 against Hallwood Energy, principally for breach of contract. Eagle Domestic Drilling Operations, LLC and its parent have since filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection. Hallwood Energy is currently unable to determine the impact of this matter on its results of operations and financial position.

     A description of activities in each area is provided below. Forward looking information is from current estimates by the management of Hallwood Energy, based on existing and anticipated conditions.
     Central Eastern Arkansas
     The primary objective formation is the Fayetteville Shale, which appears to range in depth from approximately 2,700 to 9,400 feet and to have a thickness of 300 to 700 feet.
     Hallwood Energy commenced drilling activities in the 2006 first quarter and is currently drilling with two rigs under a long term contract, which also provides for four additional rigs. However, Hallwood Energy is currently in negotiations with the rig contractor to revise the contract to provide for three rigs with capabilities more suited to Hallwood Energy’s properties. Hallwood Energy’s 2007 budget forecasts 25 gross wells to be drilled in this area utilizing the three rigs. Hallwood Gathering, L.P. is currently constructing a 15 mile eight-inch gathering system in White County with an initial capacity of 6 million cubic feet of gas per day (Mcf/d), with expansion potential to 60 Mcf/d. Natural gas sales are expected to begin by July 2007.

     South Louisiana
     Hallwood Energy holds options to acquire leases over approximately 17,000 acres to exploit a salt dome oil and gas opportunity in St. James, Ascension and Assumption parishes. Based on the results of the 3-D seismic data that has been analyzed, approximately 4,000 to 8,000 acres are expected to be retained for future development. Hallwood Energy has secured two rigs, the first rig started in October 2006 and has recently fulfilled its two well commitment. The second rig began drilling in December 2006 and is under contract for two years. The expectations for 2007 are that 6 wells will be drilled. Additional drilling equipment and funding will be assessed and determined based on the results of the initial wells.
     West Texas
     Hallwood Energy sold a 60% interest and transferred operations in these properties to Chesapeake in July 2006. Chesapeake has drilled to total depth on three wells. One of these wells is currently producing and selling gas, one well is currently being completed, and the third well is waiting on completion. Under the sales agreement with Chesapeake, two rigs were to complete drilling of the wells on which they were then being used and after being deployed elsewhere, both rigs would resume drilling on these properties in the second quarter of 2007. The 2007 budget calls for these rigs to drill five gross wells in West Texas during the year.
     Fort Worth Basin, North Texas
     These properties were sold to Chesapeake in July 2006. Hallwood Energy no longer has any involvement in activities related to these properties. Hallwood Energy’s operating revenues in the year ended December 31, 2006 were from the two producing wells on these properties.
     Critical Accounting Policies
     There have been no changes to the critical accounting policies identified and set forth in the Company’s Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2006.
     Related Party Transactions
     Hallwood Investments Limited. The Company has entered into a financial consulting contract with Hallwood Investments Limited (“HIL”), a corporation associated with Mr. Anthony J. Gumbiner, the Company’s chairman and principal stockholder. The contract provides for HIL to furnish and perform international consulting and advisory services to the Company and its subsidiaries, including strategic planning and merger activities, for annual compensation of $996,000. The annual amount is payable in monthly installments. The contract automatically renews for one-year periods if not terminated by the parties beforehand. Additionally, HIL and Mr. Gumbiner are also eligible for bonuses from the Company or its subsidiaries, subject to approval by the Company’s or its subsidiaries’ board of directors. The Company also reimburses HIL for reasonable expenses in providing office space and administrative services and for travel and related expenses to and from the Company’s United States office. In addition, the Company also reimbursed Mr. Gumbiner for services, meals and other personal expenses related to the office separately maintained by Mr. Gumbiner. At Mr. Gumbiner’s recommendation, the Company’s board of directors determined in 2006 that the reimbursement for personal expenses related to his office would not continue after November 2006.

Item 2.   MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
     Employment Contracts. The Company and its Brookwood subsidiary have compensation agreements with various personnel and consultants. Generally, the agreements extend for one-year terms and are renewable annually.
     2005 Long-Term Incentive Plan for Brookwood. In December 2005, the Company adopted The Hallwood Group Incorporated 2005 Long-Term Incentive Plan for Brookwood Companies Incorporated (“2005 Long-Term Incentive Plan for Brookwood”) to attract, retain and motivate key personnel of Brookwood. The terms of the incentive plan provide for a total award amount to participants equal to 15% of the fair market value of consideration received by the Company in a change of control transaction, as defined, in excess of the sum of the liquidation preference plus accrued unpaid dividends on the Brookwood preferred stock (approximately $22,686,000 at March 31, 2007). Provided certain circumstances are met, the minimum total award amount shall be $2,000,000. In addition, if certain members of Brookwood senior management do not have at least a two percent equity or debt interest in the entity with which the change of control transaction is completed, then the Company will be obligated to pay an additional $2,600,000.
     Hallwood Energy. The Company’s Hallwood Energy affiliate has various contractual obligations and commercial commitments. At March 31, 2007, such obligations and commitments included $40,000,000 for long-term debt, $11,124,000 for interest, $94,966,000 for long-term rig commitments and $51,000 for operating leases.

Item 2.   MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
     Liquidity and Capital Resources
     General. The Company principally operates in the textile products and energy business segments. The Company’s cash position decreased by $4,170,000 during the 2007 first quarter to $5,884,000 as of March 31, 2007. The principal source of cash in 2007 was $3,163,000 from net bank borrowings. The primary uses of cash were $1,957,000 for operating activities, $5,002,000 for an additional investment in Hallwood Energy and $375,000 for property, plant and equipment.
     Textiles. The Company’s textile products segment generates funds from the dyeing, laminating and finishing of fabrics and their sale to customers in the consumer, industrial, medical and military markets. Brookwood maintains a $22,000,000 revolving line of credit facility and a $3,000,000 equipment facility with Key Bank. The facilities have a maturity date of January 2010. At March 31, 2007, Brookwood had approximately $8,314,000 of unused borrowing capacity on its revolving line of credit facility and $2,631,000 on its equipment credit facility.
     Brookwood paid cash dividends to the Company of $3,000,000 in the four month period ended April 30, 2007 and $6,000,000 for all of 2006. In addition, Brookwood made payments to the Company of $621,000 in the four month period ended April 30, 2007 and $738,000 for all of 2006 under its tax sharing agreement. Future cash dividends and tax sharing payments are contingent upon Brookwood’s continued profitability and compliance with its loan covenants. Brookwood was in compliance with its loan covenants as of March 31, 2007 and for all interim periods in 2006. There were no significant additional capital requirements as of March 31, 2007.
     Energy. In February 2006, Hallwood Energy entered into a $65,000,000 loan facility, and had drawn $40,000,000 as of December 31, 2006. Subsequent to December 31, 2006, Hallwood Energy was not in compliance with the proved collateral coverage ratio. In April 2007, Hallwood Energy repaid the $40,000,000 outstanding principal balance of the former loan from proceeds of a new $100,000,000 Credit Facility, under which it has drawn $65,000,000.
     Prior to the April 2007 funding of the Credit Facility, the Company had advanced $7,000,000 to Hallwood Energy pursuant to demand notes bearing interest at 6% above prime rate. In April 2007, Hallwood Energy made a request for additional capital contributions in the amount of $25,000,000. The Company and Hallwood Energy had agreed that the $7,000,000 amount previously advanced would be applied as the Company’s portion of this capital call. On May 10, 2007, Hallwood Energy repaid $257,000 to the Company, which represented the excess of $7,000,000 advanced over the Company’s share of the capital contribution and related oversubscription.
     Hallwood Energy issued a $20,000,000 equity call, the May Call, to its partners on May 21, 2007, which is due on July 1, 2007. The Company’s proportionate share of the May Call is $5,091,000. In addition, as contemplated by the Credit Facility, Hallwood Energy also currently anticipates making requests for additional capital contributions in the amount of $15,000,000 from its partners later in 2007. The Company currently intends to fund approximately $2,500,000 of the May Call but does not have funds available to contribute substantial capital in connection with that or future calls. To the extent the Company does not make future capital contributions in proportion to its interest in Hallwood Energy, its percentage ownership interest will be reduced.
     In April 2007, HIL and the new lender have each committed to fund one-half of the April Call and potential additional equity or subordinated debt funding calls totaling $55,000,000 by Hallwood Energy, to the extent other investors, including the Company, do not respond to a call. Pursuant to this commitment, HIL intends to fund that portion of the May Call that the Company does not fund. The Company and Mr. Gumbiner have agreed to discuss in the future the terms on which HIL will make this funding as between the Company and HIL.
     However, the timing and amount of any additional capital contributions to Hallwood Energy are uncertain. Hallwood Energy may determine that greater or lesser equity funding is required during 2007 and may determine to seek funding from sources other than existing investors. The actual level of Hallwood Energy’s capital requirements during 2007 and thereafter will depend on a number of factors that cannot be determined at this time, including future gas prices, costs of field operations, the ability to successfully identify and acquire prospective properties and drill and complete wells, access to gathering and transportation infrastructure, and the availability of alternative sources of capital, such as loans from third parties or equity contributions from new investors.
     Future Liquidity. The Company’s ability to generate cash flow from operations will depend on its future performance and its ability to successfully implement business and growth strategies. The Company’s performance will also be affected by prevailing economic conditions. Many of these factors are beyond the Company’s control. Considering its current cash position and its anticipated cash flow from continuing operations, the Company believes it has sufficient funds to meet its liquidity needs,

although the Company is unlikely to be able to fund substantial additional capital contributions to Hallwood Energy after April 2007.

Item 2.   MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
     Forward-Looking Statements
     In the interest of providing stockholders with certain information regarding the Company’s future plans and operations, certain statements set forth in this Form 10-Q relate to management’s future plans, objectives and expectations. Such statements are forward-looking statements. Although any forward-looking statement expressed by or on behalf of the Company is, to the knowledge and in the judgment of the officers and directors, expected to prove true and come to pass, management is not able to predict the future with absolute certainty. Forward-looking statements involve known and unknown risks and uncertainties, which may cause the Company’s actual performance and financial results in future periods to differ materially from any projection, estimate or forecasted result. Among others, these risks and uncertainties include those described in the Company’s Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2006 in the section entitled “Business — Competition, Risks and Other Factors”. These risks and uncertainties are difficult or impossible to predict accurately and many are beyond the control of the Company. Other risks and uncertainties may be described, from time to time, in the Company’s periodic reports and filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

Item 3.   QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
     There have been no material changes to the Company’s market risks during the quarter ended March 31, 2007.
     The Company is exposed to market risk due to fluctuations in interest rates. The Company historically has utilized both fixed rate and variable rate debt to finance its operations. As of March 31, 2007, the Company’s total outstanding loans payable of $14,055,000 were comprised of $108,000 of fixed rate debt and $13,947,000 of variable rate debt. There is inherent rollover risk for borrowings as they mature and are renewed at current market rates. The extent of this risk is not quantifiable or predictable because of the variability of future interest rates and the Company’s future financing requirements. A hypothetical increase in interest rates of one percentage point would cause an annual loss in income and cash flows of approximately $140,000, assuming that outstanding debt remained at current levels.
     The Company does not have any derivative financial instruments as of March 31, 2007.
     Hallwood Energy has a make-whole provision contained within its former and current loan facilities. The make-whole fee is recorded at its estimated fair value on Hallwood Energy’s balance sheet and changes in its fair value are recorded in interest expense in Hallwood Energy’s statement of operations.

Item 4.   CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
     Disclosure Controls and Procedures. It is the conclusion of the Company’s principal executive officer and principal financial officer that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Exchange Act rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e)), based on their evaluation of these controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this Form 10-Q, are effective at the reasonable assurance level in ensuring that information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms, and that information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to the Company’s management, including its principal executive and principal financial officers, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Management necessarily applied its judgment in assessing the costs and benefits of such controls and procedures, which, by their nature, can provide only reasonable assurance regarding management’s control objectives. The design of any system of controls and procedures is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events. There can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions, regardless of how remote.
     In August 2003, the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm provided written communications to management and the audit committee on the need to improve the financial closing process at the Brookwood subsidiary. In April 2004, the Company received a further written communication from the independent registered public accounting firm to management and the audit committee on the continued need to improve the Brookwood financial closing process. In March 2005, March 2006 and May 2007, the Company received communications from its independent registered public accounting firm that further improvements in the financial systems and processes at its Brookwood subsidiary are still required. With the addition of new staff, Brookwood’s management believes it has made substantial progress both in the timeliness and accuracy of the closing process. In addition, Brookwood is currently implementing a new order processing and inventory control system and updating it general ledger system, which will integrate various accounting processes. The new systems will further aid in accelerating and automating the financial closing process.
     Internal Controls. Other than the improvements noted above, there were no changes in the Company’s internal controls over financial reporting that occurred during the last fiscal quarter that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, these controls.
