STEINER LEISURE LIMITED AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

March 31, 2007
(Unaudited)

(1)	BASIS OF PRESENTATION OF INTERIM CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS:

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements for each period include the condensed consolidated balance sheets, statements of income and cash flows of Steiner Leisure Limited (including its subsidiaries, "Steiner Leisure, the "Company", "we" and "our"). All significant intercompany items and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC"). Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in annual financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles have been omitted pursuant to the SEC's rules and regulations. However, management believes that the disclosures contained herein are adequate to make the information presented not misleading. In the opinion of management, the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all material adjustments (which include normal recurring adjustments) necessary to present fairly our unaudited financial position, results of operations and cash flows. The unaudited results of operations and cash flows for the three months ended March 31, 2007 are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations or cash flows that may be expected for the remainder of 2007. The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and related notes thereto included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2006. The December 31, 2006 Consolidated Balance Sheet included herein was extracted from the December 31, 2006 audited Consolidated Balance Sheet included in our 2006 Annual Report on Form 10-K.

The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Significant estimates include the assessment of the realization of accounts receivable, inventories, deferred tax assets and long-lived assets and the useful lives of intangible assets and property and equipment.

(2)	ORGANIZATION:

Steiner Leisure is a worldwide provider of spa services. The Company, incorporated in the Bahamas, commenced operations effective November 1995 with the contributions of substantially all of the assets and certain of the liabilities of the Maritime Division (the "Maritime Division") of Steiner Group Limited, subsequently known as STGR Limited ("Steiner Group"), a U.K. company and an affiliate of the Company, and all of the outstanding common stock of Coiffeur Transocean (Overseas), Inc. ("CTO"), a Florida corporation and a wholly-owned subsidiary of Steiner Group. These operations consisted almost entirely of offering spa services and products on cruise ships. The contributions of the net assets of the Maritime Division and CTO were recorded at historical cost in a manner similar to a pooling of interests.

(3)	SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES:

(a)	Inventories

Inventories, consisting principally of beauty products, are stated at the lower of cost (first-in, first-out) or market. Manufactured finished goods include the cost of raw material, labor and overhead. Inventories consist of the following:

		December 31,		March 31,
		2006		2007
Finished Goods	$	20,031,000	$	21,386,000
Raw Materials		7,885,000		7,143,000
	$	27,916,000	$	28,529,000

(b)	Property and Equipment

We review long-lived assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate, based on estimated future cash flows, that the carrying amount of these assets may not be fully recoverable. In certain cases, the determination of fair value is highly sensitive to differences between estimated and actual cash flows and changes in the related discount rate used to evaluate the fair value of the assets in question.

(c)

Goodwill

Pursuant to Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 142, "Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets," goodwill is subject to at least an annual assessment for impairment by applying a fair value-based test. The impairment loss is the amount, if any, by which the implied fair value of goodwill is less than the carrying or book value. On January 1, 2007, the Company performed the required annual impairment test and determined there was no impairment. The Company believes that, as of March 31, 2007, no indicators of impairment were present which would warrant an impairment analysis prior to the next scheduled annual impairment test. We have five operating segments, (1) Maritime, (2) Resorts, (3) Product Distribution, (4) Training, and (5) Schools. The Maritime, Resorts, Product Distribution and Schools operating segments have associated goodwill and each of them has been determined to be a reporting unit under paragraph 30 of SFAS 142 and EITF D-101.

(d)	Income Taxes

The Company files a consolidated income tax return for its United States subsidiaries. In addition, the Company's foreign subsidiaries file income tax returns in their respective countries of incorporation, where required. The Company follows SFAS 109, "Accounting for Income Taxes." SFAS 109 utilizes the liability method and deferred taxes are determined based on the estimated future tax effects of differences between the financial statement and tax bases of assets and liabilities given the provisions of enacted tax laws. SFAS 109 permits the recognition of deferred tax assets. Deferred income tax provisions and benefits are based on the changes to the asset or liability from period to period. We believe that a large percentage of our shipboard income is foreign-source income, not effectively connected to a business we conduct in the United States and, therefore, not subject to United States income taxation.

(e)	Translation of Foreign Currencies

Assets and liabilities of foreign subsidiaries are translated at the rate of exchange in effect at the balance sheet date; equity and other items at historical rates; income and expenses are translated at the average rates of exchange prevailing during the year. The related translation adjustments are reflected in the accumulated other comprehensive income in the condensed consolidated balance sheets. Foreign currency gains and losses resulting from transactions, including intercompany transactions, are included in the condensed consolidated statements of income. The transaction gains (losses), which are reflected in Administrative expenses, were approximately $111,000 and $(1,000) for the three months ended March 31, 2006 and 2007, respectively.

(f)	Earnings Per Share

Basic earnings per share is computed by dividing the net income available to common shareholders by the weighted average number of outstanding common shares. The calculation of diluted earnings per share is similar to basic earnings per share, except that the denominator includes dilutive common share equivalents such as share options and restricted shares. A reconciliation between basic and diluted earnings per share is as follows:

		Three Months Ended March 31,
		2006			2007
Income from continuing operations before
Discontinued operations	$	10,581,000		$	10,779,000
Income from discontinued operations		225,000			--
Net income		10,806,000			10,779,000
Income allocable to holders of
Steiner Education Group, Inc. options		(13,000	)		(42,000	)
Net income for diluted earnings per share	$	10,793,000		$	10,737,000

Weighted average shares outstanding used in
calculating basic earnings per share		17,370,000		17,023,000
Dilutive common share equivalents		589,000		364,000
Weighted average common and common equivalent shares used in calculating diluted earnings per share		17,959,000		17,387,000

Income per share-basic:
Income before discontinued operations	$	0.61	$	0.63
Income from discontinued operations		0.01		--
	$	0.62	$	0.63
Income per share-diluted:
Income before discontinued operations	$	0.59	$	0.62
Income from discontinued operations		0.01		--
	$	0.60	$	0.62
Options and restricted shares outstanding which are not included in the calculation of diluted earnings per share because their impact is anti-dilutive		- --		156,000

The Company issued 455,000 and 7,000 of its common shares upon the exercise of share options during the three months ended March 31, 2006 and 2007, respectively.

(g)	Stock-Based Compensation

The Company granted 110,000 stock options and 153,000 restricted shares during the quarter ended March 1, 2006. No options or restricted shares were granted during the quarter ended March 31, 2007.

(h)	Advertising Costs

Substantially all of our advertising costs are charged to expense as incurred, except costs which result in tangible assets, such as brochures, which are recorded as prepaid expenses and charged to expense as consumed. Advertising costs were approximately $1,796,000 and $3,672,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2006 and 2007, respectively. At December 31, 2006 and March 31, 2007, the amounts of advertising costs included in prepaid expenses were not material.

(i)	Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In June 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Interpretation No. 48, Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes, an interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109 ("FIN 48"). FIN 48 clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in an enterprise's financial statements. This interpretation prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return for a year in question. This interpretation became effective for the Company on January 1, 2007. The adoption of FIN 48 did not have a material impact on our 2007 consolidated financial statements for the three months ended March 31, 2007.

The Company's policy for interest and penalties under FIN 48 related to income tax exposures was not impacted as a result of the adoption and measurement provisions of FIN 48. The Company continues to recognize interest and penalties as incurred within the provision for income taxes in the Consolidated Statements of Income. To the extent interest and penalties are not assessed with respect to uncertain tax positions, amounts accrued will be reduced and reflected as a reduction of the overall income tax provision.

In September 2006, FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standard ("SFAS") No. 157, "Fair Value Measurements." SFAS 157 defines fair value, establishes a formal framework for measuring fair value and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. SFAS 157 will become effective on January 1, 2008. We are currently evaluating the impact, if any, the adoption of this statement will have on our consolidated financial statements.

In February 2007, FASB issued SFAS No. 159, The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities - Including an amendment of FASB Statement No. 115. SFAS No. 159 will become effective for the Company on January 1, 2008. SFAS No. 159 permits entities to choose to measure many financial instruments and certain other items at fair value. Unrealized gains and losses on items for which the fair value option has been elected will be recognized in earnings at each subsequent report date. We are currently evaluating the impact that the adoption of SFAS No. 159 will have on our consolidated financial statements.

(4)	ACQUISITIONS:

On April 3, 2006, we acquired the assets and certain liabilities of Utah College of Massage Therapy, Inc., which operated a post-secondary massage therapy school with a total of seven campuses in Utah, Nevada, Arizona and Colorado, and the assets of BWMI, Inc., a small affiliate thereof that offers spa products, equipment and services to UCMT students and others (those assets are referred to, collectively, as "UCMT"). We acquired UCMT to expand our School segment and to assist in its future growth. The purchase price for UCMT was approximately $28.0 million in cash, plus the post-closing payment described below. The results of operations of UCMT that we acquired are included in our results of operations for the period subsequent to April 3, 2006.

In accordance with SFAS No. 141, "Business Combinations", we applied the purchase method of accounting to record this transaction. The preliminary purchase price allocation for the acquisition is as follows:

Accounts receivable - students	$	7,235,000
Accounts receivable		282,000
Inventories		439,000
Other current assets		444,000
Property and equipment		2,271,000
Goodwill and intangibles		27,501,000
Other assets		277,000
Accounts payable and accrued expenses		(1,850,000	)
Deferred tuition revenue		(9,887,000	)
Gift certificate liability		(1,178,000	)
Cash used in acquisition, net of cash acquired	$	25,534,000

The results of operations of UCMT prior to the acquisition are not deemed material to the Company's results of operations. Subsequent to April 3, 2006, we paid the previous owner approximately $1,351,000 related to the finalization of a post-closing working capital adjustment. This amount was recorded as an increase to Goodwill. The intangible assets were Title IV Rights, trade name, non-compete agreements, websites and curriculum. The fair values of Title IV rights, non-compete agreements and websites were based on a discounted cash flows method, the fair value of the trade name was based on the relief from royalty method and the fair value of the curriculum was based on an estimate from our education personnel.

(5)	DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS:

In connection with the sales of the Company's day spa assets to third parties, the Company remains liable under certain leases for those day spas in the event third party lease assignees fail to pay rent under such leases. The total amount that the Company remains liable for under such assigned leases, if the assignees fail to make the required payments, was approximately $1.4 million as of March 31, 2007.

(6)	ACCRUED EXPENSES:

Accrued expenses consists of the following:

		December 31,		March 31,
		2006		2007

Operative commissions	$	4,494,000	$	3,769,000
Minimum cruise line commissions		10,540,000		4,646,000
Payroll and bonuses		5,058,000		4,530,000
Rent		1,204,000		1,211,000
Other		8,981,000		11,279,000
Total	$	30,277,000	$	25,435,000

(7)	LONG-TERM DEBT:

In July 2001, the Company entered into a credit agreement with a syndicate of banks that provides for a term loan of $45 million and a revolving facility of up to $10 million. Borrowings under the credit agreement are secured by substantially all of the assets of the Company and bear interest primarily at London Interbank Offered Rate ("LIBOR")-based rates plus a spread that is dependent upon the Company's financial performance. Borrowings under the term loans were used to fund the Company's July 2001 acquisitions of land-based spas and under the revolving facility have been used for working capital needs. We have repaid both of these loans. On June 30, 2005, the Company entered into an amended and restated credit agreement with one of the banks in the original syndicate. The terms and conditions of the new agreement were substantially the same as the former agreement, except that there was no term loan component, the aggregate amount available fo r borrowing under the revolving line of credit was increased from $10 million to $20 million and the maturity date of the revolving facility was extended two years to July 2, 2007. Effective June 29, 2006, we entered into a second amended and restated credit agreement with that bank, which increased the aggregate amount available for borrowing under the revolving line of credit from $20 million to $30 million. As of March 31, 2007, there was $30.0 million available under the revolving facility.

The credit agreement contains customary affirmative, negative and financial covenants, including limitations on dividends, capital expenditures and funded debt, and requirements to maintain prescribed interest expense and fixed charge coverage ratios. As of March 31, 2007, we were in compliance with all of these financial covenants.

Item 2.

Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

Overview

Steiner Leisure Limited is a leading worldwide provider of spa services. We sell our services and products to cruise passengers and at resort and day spas primarily in the United States, the Caribbean, the Pacific, Asia and Mexico. Payments to cruise lines, resort spa owners and day spa landlords are based on a percentage of our revenues and, in certain cases, a minimum annual rental or a combination of both. Our revenues are generated principally from our cruise ship operations. Accordingly, our success and our growth are dependent to a significant extent on the success and growth of the travel and leisure industry in general, and on the cruise industry in particular. Our resort spas are dependent on the resort hotel industry for their success. The cruise industry is subject to significant risks that could affect our results of operations.

A significant factor in our financial results is the amounts we are required to pay under our agreements with the cruise lines and resorts. Certain cruise line agreements provide for increases in percentages of revenues and other amounts payable by us over the terms of those agreements. These payments may also be increased under new agreements with cruise lines and resort venue operators that replace expiring agreements. In general, we have experienced increases in these payments as a percentage of revenues upon entering into new agreements with cruise lines.

Weather also can impact our results, and did so in 2004 and 2005. The multiple hurricanes that hit the Southern United States and other regions in the second half of each of these years caused cancellation or disruption of certain cruises and the closure of certain of our resort spas and campuses of our massage and beauty schools, which had adverse effects on us. In 2006, we closed two campuses of UCMT for several days due to severe snow conditions. In addition, the strong tsunami that hit various Asian regions in December 2004 resulted in damage to, and the closing of, most of our operations in the Maldives during much of 2005.

Other factors also can adversely affect our financial results. An increasing percentage of cruise passengers who use our services are repeat customers of ours. These repeat customers are less likely to purchase our products than new customers.

Historically, a significant portion of our operations has been conducted on ships through entities that are not subject to income taxation in the United States or other jurisdictions. To the extent that our non-shipboard income increases as a percentage of our overall income, the amount of our income that will be subject to tax would increase.

We develop and sell a variety of high quality beauty products under our Elemis and La Therapie brands. We also sell products of third parties. An increasing amount of revenues have come from our sales of products through third party retail outlets, our web sites, mail order and other channels.

On April 3, 2006, we completed the acquisition of UCMT, which offers massage therapy programs similar to those offered by the other massage therapy schools we operate. The purchase price for UCMT was $28.0 million in cash, less cash on hand acquired. As a result of the UCMT acquisition, we now offer post-secondary degree and non-degree programs in massage therapy, and, in some places, skin care and related areas at the 14 campuses of our schools in Arizona, Colorado, Florida, Maryland, Pennsylvania, Nevada, Virginia, and Utah.

Revenues from our massage and beauty schools, which consist almost entirely of student tuition payments, are derived to a significant extent from the proceeds of loans issued under the DOE's Title IV program and, accordingly, we must comply with a number of regulatory requirements in order to maintain the eligibility of our students and prospective students for loans under this program.

Key Performance Indicators

Spa Operations. A measure of performance we have used in connection with our periodic financial disclosure relating to our cruise line operations is that of revenue per staff per day. In using that measure, we have differentiated between our revenue per staff per day on ships with large spas and other ships we serve. Our revenue per staff per day has been affected by the increasing requirements of cruise lines that we place additional non-revenue producing staff on ships with large spas to help maintain a high quality guest experience. We also utilize, as measures of performance for our cruise line operations, our average revenue per week and our revenue per passenger per day. We use these measures of performance because they assist us in determining the productivity of our staff, which we believe is a critical element of our operations. With respect to our resort spas, we measure our performance primarily through average weekly revenue over applicable periods of time.

Schools. With respect to our massage and beauty schools, we measure performance primarily by the number of new student enrollments and the rate of retention of our students. A new student enrollment occurs each time a new student commences classes at one of our schools.

Products. With respect to sales of our products, other than on cruise ships and at our resort and day spas, we measure performance by revenues.

Growth

We seek to grow our business by attempting to obtain contracts for new cruise ships brought into service by our existing cruise line customers and for existing and new ships of other cruise lines, seeking new venues for our resort spas, developing new products and services, seeking additional channels for the distribution of our retail products and seeking to increase the student enrollments at our post-secondary massage and beauty schools. We also consider growth, among other things, through appropriate strategic transactions, including acquisitions and joint ventures.

Critical Accounting Policies

We have identified the policies outlined below as critical to our business operations and an understanding of our results of operations. This discussion is not intended to be a comprehensive description of all of our accounting policies. In many cases, the accounting treatment of a particular transaction is specifically dictated by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States, with no need for management's judgment in their application. The impact on our business operations and any associated risks related to these policies is discussed under results of operations, below, where such policies affect our reported and expected financial results. For a detailed discussion on the application of these and other accounting policies, please see Note 2 in the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements beginning on page F-1. Note that our preparation of this Form 10-K requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amount of assets and liabilities , disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of our financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. There can be no assurance that actual results will not differ from those estimates.

Cost of revenues includes:

cost of services, including an allocable portion of wages paid to shipboard employees and wages paid directly to land-based spa employees, payments to cruise lines and land-based spa venue owners and other staff-related shipboard expenses, spa facilities depreciation, as well as, with respect to our schools, directly attributable campus costs such as rent, advertising and employee wages; and

cost of products, including an allocable portion of wages paid to shipboard employees, payments to cruise lines and land-based spa venue owners and other staff-related shipboard expenses, as well as costs associated with development, manufacturing and distribution of products.

Cost of revenues may be affected by, among other things, sales mix, production levels, exchange rates, changes in supplier prices and discounts, purchasing and manufacturing efficiencies, tariffs, duties, freight and inventory costs. Certain cruise line agreements provide for increases in the percentages of services and products revenues and/or, as the case may be, the amount of minimum annual commissions payable over the terms of those agreements. These payments may also be increased under new agreements with cruise lines and resort spa and day spa venue owners that replace expiring agreements.

Cost of products includes the cost of products sold through our various methods of distribution. To a lesser extent, cost of products also includes the cost of products consumed in rendering services. This amount is not a material component of the cost of services rendered and would not be practicable to identify separately.

Operating expenses include administrative expenses, salary and payroll taxes. In addition, operating expenses include amortization of certain intangibles relating to our acquisitions of resort spas in 2001 and UCMT in April 2006.

Revenue Recognition

Tuition revenue at our massage and beauty schools and revenue related to certain nonrefundable fees and charges are recognized monthly on a straight-line basis over the term of the course of study. Deferred revenue represents the portion of student tuition and nonrefundable fees and charges recorded in excess of amounts earned and certain other amounts collected in advance. Revenue related to sales of program materials, books and supplies are, generally, recognized when the program materials, books and supplies are delivered. We include the revenue related to sales of program materials, books and supplies in the Services Revenue financial statement caption in our Consolidated Statement of Income. If a student withdraws from one of our schools prior to the completion of the academic term, we refund the portion of the tuition already paid that, pursuant to our refund policy and applicable federal and state law and accrediting agency standards, we are not entitled to retain.

Allowance for Doubtful Accounts

We extend unsecured credit to our students for tuition and fees and we record a receivable for the tuition and fees earned in excess of the payment received from, or on behalf, of a student. We record an allowance for doubtful accounts with respect to accounts receivable using historical collection experience. We review the historical collection experience, consider other facts and circumstances, and adjust the calculation to record an allowance for doubtful accounts as appropriate. If our current collection trends were to differ significantly from our historic collection experience, however, we would make a corresponding adjustment to our allowance. We write-off the accounts receivable due from former students when we conclude that collection is not probable.

Property and Equipment

Property and equipment are recorded at cost. Depreciation is recorded using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets in question. Leasehold improvements are amortized on a straight-line basis over the shorter of the useful life of the improvement or the term of the lease. For certain properties, leasehold improvements are amortized over lease terms, which include renewal periods that may be obtained at our option and that are considered significant to the continuation of our operations and to the existence of leasehold improvements, the value of which would be impaired by our discontinuing use of the leased property. We perform ongoing evaluations of the estimated useful lives of our property and equipment for depreciation purposes. The estimated useful lives are determined and continually evaluated based on the period over which services are expected to be rendered by the asset, industry practice and asset maintenance policies. Maintenance and repa ir items are expensed as incurred.

Goodwill

Pursuant to SFAS 142, goodwill is subject to at least an annual assessment for impairment by applying a fair value-based test. The impairment loss is the amount, if any, by which the implied fair value of goodwill is less than the carrying value. As of March 31, 2007, we had unamortized goodwill and intangibles of $77.4 million. As of January 1, 2007, we performed the required annual impairment test and determined there was no impairment.

Accounting for Income Taxes

As part of the process of preparing our consolidated financial statements, we are required to estimate our income taxes in each of the jurisdictions in which we operate. This process involves estimating our actual current tax exposure together with an assessment of temporary differences resulting from differing treatment of items for tax purposes and accounting purposes, respectively. These differences result in deferred tax assets and liabilities which are included in our Consolidated Balance Sheets. We must then assess the likelihood that our deferred tax assets will be recovered from future taxable income and to the extent we believe that recovery is not likely, we must establish a valuation allowance. To the extent we establish a valuation allowance or increase this allowance in a period, we must include an expense within the tax provision in the Statements of Operations.

Significant management judgment is required in determining our provision for income taxes, our deferred tax assets and liabilities and any valuation allowance recorded against our net deferred tax assets. We have recorded a valuation allowance of $27.8 million as of March 31, 2007, due to uncertainties related to our ability to utilize certain of our deferred tax assets, primarily consisting of net operating losses carried forward, before they expire. The valuation allowance is based on our estimates of taxable income and the period over which our deferred tax assets will be recoverable. In the event that actual results differ from these estimates or we adjust these estimates in future periods, we may need to establish an additional valuation allowance which could impact our financial position and results of operations.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In June 2006, FASB issued FIN 48. FIN 48 clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in an enterprise's financial statements. This interpretation prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return for a year in question. This interpretation became effective for the Company on January 1, 2007. The adoption of FIN 48 did not have a material impact on our 2007 consolidated financial statements for the three months ended March 31, 2007.

In September 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 157. SFAS 157 defines fair value, establishes a formal framework for measuring fair value and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. SFAS 157 will become effective on January 1, 2008. We are currently evaluating the impact, if any, the adoption of this statement will have on our consolidated financial statements.

Three Months Ended March 31, 2006 Compared to Three Months Ended March 31, 2007

REVENUES

Revenues of our reportable segments for the three months ended March 31, 2006 and 2007, were as follows:

		Three Months Ended March 31,			% Change
Revenue:		2006		2007
Spa Operations Segment	$	90,277,000	$	98,202,000	8.8%
Products Segment	$	13,759,000	$	19,825,000	44.1%
Schools Segment	$	4,939,000	$	11,862,000	140.2%

Total revenues increased approximately 18.4%, or $19.2 million, to $123.7 million in the first quarter of 2007 from $104.5 million in the first quarter of 2006. Of this increase, $13.3 million was attributable to an increase in services revenues and $5.9 million was attributable to an increase in product revenues.

Spa Operations Segment Revenues.Spa Operations segment revenues increased approximately 8.8%, or $7.9 million, to $98.2 million in the first quarter of 2007 from $90.3 million in the first quarter of 2006. The increase in revenues was primarily attributable to an average of nine additional large spa ships in service in the first quarter of 2007 compared to the first quarter of 2006. This increase was partially offset by the loss of revenues related to our ceasing operations at the One&Only Palmilla Resort effective October 1, 2006. Average weekly revenues for our resorts decreased 4.9% to $26,484 in the first quarter of 2007 from $27,869 in the first quarter of 2006 due to decreased staff productivity. We had an average of 1,938 shipboard staff members in service in the first quarter of 2007 compared to an average of 1,695 shipboard staff members in service in the first quarter of 2006. Revenues per shipboard staff per day decreased by 1.1% to $455 in the first quarter of 2007 from $460 in the first quarter of 2006 primarily due to additional non-revenue producing staff on ships with large spas. Average weekly revenues for our shipboard spas increased by 4.9% to $49,443 in the first quarter of 2006 from $47,128 in the first quarter of 2006 due to increased staff productivity.

Products Segment Revenues.Product segment revenues increased approximately 44.1%, or $6.0 million to $19.8 million in the first quarter of 2007 from $13.8 million in the first quarter of 2006. This increase was primarily attributable to the expansion of our product distribution to more third party customers in 2007.

School Segment Revenues.School segment revenues increased approximately 140.2%, or $7.0 million to $11.9 million in the first quarter of 2007 from $4.9 million in the first quarter of 2006. The increase in revenues was primarily attributable to the acquisition of UCMT on April 3, 2006.

COST OF SERVICES

Cost of services increased $11.0 million from $56.5 million in the first quarter of 2006 to $67.5 million in the first quarter of 2007. Cost of services as a percentage of services revenues increased to 80.1% in the first quarter of 2007 from 79.6% in 2006. This increase was primarily attributable to increases in commissions allocable to services on cruise ships covered by agreements that provide for increases in commissions in the first quarter of 2007 as compared to the first quarter of 2006.

COST OF PRODUCTS

Cost of products increased $3.4 million from $24.4 million in the first quarter of 2006 to $27.8 million in the first quarter of 2007. Cost of products as a percentage of products revenue decreased to 70.3% in the first quarter of 2007 from 72.5% in the first quarter of 2006. This decrease was primarily attributable to an increase in sales of higher margin products.

OPERATING EXPENSES

Operating expenses increased $4.0 million from $13.1 million in the first quarter of 2006 to $17.1 million in the first quarter of 2007. Operating expenses as a percentage of revenues increased to 13.9% in the first quarter of 2007 from 12.5% in the first quarter of 2006. This increase was primarily attributable to the operations of UCMT which was acquired effective April 3, 2006 and an increase in share-based compensation expense of $598,000 related to the granting of restricted shares which were not outstanding during the first quarter of 2006.

OPERATING INCOME

Operating income of our reportable segments for the three months ended March 31, 2006 and 2007, was as follows:

		For the Three Months Ended March 31,			% Change
Operating income:		2006		2007
Spa Operations Segment	$	8,936,000	$	9,809,000	9.8%
Products Segment	$	1,292,000	$	1,147,000	(11.2%)
Schools Segment	$	535,000	$	908,000	69.7%

The increase in operating income in the Spa Operations segment was primarily attributable to the increase in number of facilities we operate in. The decrease in operating income in the Products segment was primarily attributable to costs incurred in connection with our retail sales activities expansion. The increase in the operating income in the Schools segment was attributable to the acquisition of UCMT on April 3, 2006.

OTHER INCOME (EXPENSE)

Other income (expense) decreased $0.4 million from income of $0.9 million in the first quarter of 2006 to income of $0.5 million in the first quarter of 2007. This decrease was primarily attributable to the receipt of $440,000 in January 2006 of insurance proceeds related to the damage we incurred as a result of the December 2004 Asia tsunami.

PROVISION FOR INCOME TAXES

Provision for income taxes increased $0.2 million from expense of $0.9 million in the first quarter of 2006 to expense of $1.1 million in the first quarter of 2007. Provision for income taxes increased to an overall effective rate of 9.2% in the first quarter of 2007 from 7.4% in the first quarter of 2006. The increase was primarily due to the recording of income tax expense related to temporary differences created by different treatment for book purposes and tax purposes, respectively, of the Company's tax deductible goodwill.

INCOME FROM DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS, NET OF TAX

The income from discontinued operations decreased $0.2 million from income of $0.2 million in the first quarter of 2006 to no income in the first quarter of 2007. This decrease was primarily attributable to the return to us of a certificate of deposit of ours that had been used as collateral for certain equipment used by our former day spa operations which was received in the first quarter of 2006.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Sources and Uses of Cash

During the three months ended March 31, 2007, net cash provided by operating activities of continuing operations was $10.0 million compared with $9.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2006. This increase was attributable to changes in working capital items.

During the three months ended March 31, 2007, cash used in investing activities was $7.3 million compared with $2.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2006. The increase was primarily attributable to our incurring greater capital expenditures to build out resort spa facilities during the three months ended March 31, 2007 compared to the three months ended March 31, 2006.

During the three months ended March 31, 2007, cash used in financing activities was $6.4 million compared with $7.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2006. This decrease in cash used in financing activities was primarily attributable to the purchase of less of our common shares during the three months ended March 31, 2007 compared to the three months ended March 31, 2006.

Steiner Leisure had working capital of approximately $43.9 million at December 31, 2006, compared to working capital of approximately $46.9 million at March 31, 2007.

In August 2005, we entered into an agreement to fund part of the build-out of, and to operate, a luxury spa at the Loews Miami Beach Hotel in Florida, which opened in April 2007. We estimate that our share of the build-out will be approximately $2.0 million. We have funded this build-out from working capital.

In June 2006, we entered into a new agreement with Kerzner International Bahamas Limited to continue to operate the luxury spas at the Atlantis and One&Only Ocean Club resorts, both on Paradise Island in the Bahamas. Under this agreement, we will operate our spa at Atlantis within a new 30,000 square foot facility that opened in April 2007. We have agreed to contribute $15.6 million toward the construction and fitting out of the new spa facility. We have funded, and anticipate continuing to fund this build-out from working capital.

In the fourth quarter of 2002, we decided to dispose of, or otherwise close, 17 of the 18 day spas we then operated due to their underperformance. The remaining day spa is located at a hotel and now operates as part of our resort spa operations. As of April 15, 2003, all of those 17 day spas had been closed or otherwise disposed of pursuant to agreements with landlords and/or, in some cases, agreements with third party acquirers of the spas' assets, including the leases. Some of these transactions involved our paying to those landlords amounts representing various portions of the remaining terms of the leases involved. In the transactions involving transfers of spa assets and assignments of the leases, we typically were required to make payments to those acquirers in consideration of their assuming both the lease in question and certain gift certificate liabilities related to the spas in question. The lease assignments to third parties generally do not include a release from the landl ords of the spas in question and, accordingly, to the extent that these third parties fail to pay rent under the leases, we remain liable for that rent. We would, in those instances, have a cause of action for such rental amounts against those third parties. We remain liable for approximately $1.4 million as of March 31, 2007 under these assigned leases to the extent the assignees fail to make their rental payments.

During 2006, we purchased 1,233,000 of our common shares for a total of approximately $49.9 million. During the three months ended March 31, 2007, we purchased 176,000 shares for a total of approximately $7.7 million. All of these purchases were funded from our working capital. We cannot provide assurance as to the number of additional shares, if any, that will be purchased under our share repurchase plan in the future.

Financing Activities

In July 2001, we entered into a credit agreement with a syndicate of banks that provided for a term loan of $45 million and a revolving credit facility of up to $10 million. Borrowings under the term loan were used to fund our 2001 spa acquisitions and borrowings under the revolving credit facility have been used for working capital needs. We repaid all outstanding amounts due under our former term loan and the revolving credit facility in 2004. On June 30, 2005, we entered into an amended and restated credit agreement with one of the banks in the original syndicate. The terms and conditions of the new agreement are substantially the same as the former agreement, except that there is no term loan component and the aggregate amount available for borrowing under the revolving line of credit was increased from $10 million to $20 million and the maturity date of the revolving facility was extended two years to July 2, 2007. In 2006, the revolving line of credit was increased to $30 mi llion. Borrowings under the credit agreement are secured by substantially all of our assets and bear interest primarily at LIBOR-based rates plus a spread that is dependent upon our financial performance. As of March 31, 2007, there was $30.0 million available under the revolving facility.

We believe that cash generated from operations is sufficient to satisfy the cash required to operate our current business for the next 12 months.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

We have no off-balance sheet arrangements.

Inflation and Economic Conditions

We do not believe that inflation has had a material adverse effect on our revenues or results of operations. However, public demand for activities, including cruises, is influenced by general economic conditions, including inflation. Periods of economic recession or high inflation, particularly in North America where a substantial number of cruise passengers reside, could have a material adverse effect on the cruise industry upon which we are dependent. A recurrence of the softness of the economy in North America that occurred in recent years and over-capacity in the cruise industry could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition.

Cautionary Statement Regarding Forward-Looking Statements

From time to time, including in this report, we may publish "forward-looking" statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"). These forward-looking statements reflect our current views about future events and are subject to known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors which may cause our actual results to differ materially from those expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements.

Such forward-looking statements include statements regarding:

our proposed activities pursuant to agreements with cruise lines or resort spa operators;
our future resort spa activities, including opening additional resort spas;
our ability to secure renewals of agreements with cruise lines upon their expiration;
scheduled introductions of new ships by cruise lines;
our ability to generate sufficient cash flow from operations;
the extent of the taxability of our income;
the effects of acquisitions and new projects;
our market sensitive financial instruments;
our future financial results; and
our ability to increase sales of our products and to increase the retail distribution of our products.

Factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed or implied by our forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, the following:

our dependence on cruise line concession agreements of specified terms that are, in some cases, terminable by cruise lines with limited or no advance notice under certain circumstances;

our dependence on the cruise industry and the resort industry and our being subject to the risks of those industries, including operation of facilities in regions with histories of economic and/or political instability, or which are susceptible to significant adverse weather conditions, including the regions affected by the December 2004 tsunami in Asia and the 2005 hurricanes in the southern United States and the risk of maritime accidents or disasters, passenger disappearances and piracy or terrorist attacks at sea or elsewhere and the adverse publicity associated with the foregoing;

increasing numbers of days during cruises when ships are in port, which results in lower revenues to us;

reductions in revenues during periods of cruise ship dry-dockings and major renovations or closures of resorts where we operate spas;

economic downturns that could reduce the number of customers on cruise ships and at resorts and that could otherwise reduce consumer demand for our products and services and the continuing effect on the economy in general, and the travel and leisure segment in particular, of the events of September 11, 2001, the hostilities in Iraq, the bombings in Indonesia in October 2002, August 2003 and October 2005, in Madrid in March 2004 and in London in July 2005, and the threat of future terrorist attacks and armed hostilities;

our dependence on a limited number of companies in the cruise industry and further consolidation of companies in the cruise industry;

our obligation to make minimum payments to certain cruise lines and owners of the locations of our resort spas, irrespective of the revenues received by us from customers;

increases in our payment obligations in connection with renewals of expiring cruise line agreements and resort spa agreements, or the securing of new agreements;

our dependence on the continued viability of the cruise lines we serve and the resorts where we operate our spas;

delays in new ship introductions, a reduction in new, large spa ship introductions and unscheduled withdrawals from service of ships we serve;

the effects of outbreaks of illnesses or the perceived risk of such outbreaks on our resort spa operations in Asia and in other locations, on our cruise ship operations and on travel generally;

the ability of the resort operators under certain of our resort spa agreements to terminate those agreements under certain circumstances, such as occurred effective October 1, 2006, when the operator of the One&Only Palmilla resort in Los Cabos, Mexico exercised its option to buy out the remaining term of our agreement at this resort;

our dependence for success on our ability to recruit and retain qualified personnel;

our dependence on a single product manufacturer;

our dependence, with respect to our resort spas, on airline service to our venue locations, which is beyond our control and subject to change;

changes in the taxation of our Bahamas subsidiaries and increased amounts of our income being subject to taxation;

competitive conditions in each of our business segments, including competition from cruise lines that may desire to provide spa services themselves and competition from third party providers of shipboard spa services;

our need to expand our services to keep up with consumer demands and to grow our business and the risk of increased expenses and liabilities potentially associated with such expansion;

our need to find additional sources of revenues;

risks relating to our non-U.S. operations;

possible labor unrest or changes in economics based on collective bargaining activities;

uncertainties beyond our control that could affect our ability to timely and cost-effectively construct and open resort spa facilities;

insufficiency of resources precluding our taking advantage of a new spa, or other opportunity;

our potential need to seek additional financing and the risk that such financing may not be available on satisfactory terms or at all;

risks relating to the performance of our massage and beauty schools which are, among other things, subject to significant government regulation, including those relating to the deferred ACCET accreditation of UCMT, and the need to assure that our programs keep pace with industry demands;

obligations under, and possible changes in laws and government regulations applicable to us and the industries we serve;

product liability or other claims against us by customers of our products or services;

restrictions imposed on us as a result of our credit facility;

currency risk;

the risk that we will be unable to successfully integrate the operations of UCMT with our other school operations and that we will be unable to successfully integrate any other operations that we acquire in the future with our then existing businesses;

the risk that announced retail rollouts of our product sales at specified venues will not be effectuated;

risks relating to the growth of our business through acquisitions; and

risks relating to unauthorized access to our computer networks.

These risks and other risks are detailed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for 2006 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. That report contains important cautionary statements and a discussion of many of the factors that could materially affect the accuracy of our forward-looking statements and/or adversely affect our business, results of operations and financial position.

Forward-looking statements should not be relied upon as predictions of actual results. Subject to any continuing obligations under applicable law, we expressly disclaim any obligation to disseminate, after the date of this report, any updates or revisions to any such forward-looking statements to reflect any change in expectations or events, conditions or circumstances on which any such statements are based.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk

As of March 31, 2007, we had a revolving line of credit in place, though we had no outstanding borrowings under that credit facility or otherwise. To the extent we have outstanding borrowings from time to time, Steiner Leisure's major market risk exposure is changing interest rates. Our policy is to manage interest rate risk through the use of a combination of fixed and floating rate debt and interest rate derivatives based upon market conditions. Our objective in managing the exposure to interest rate changes is to limit the impact of interest rate changes on earnings and cash flows and to lower our overall borrowing costs. To achieve these objectives, we have used interest rate swaps to manage net exposure to interest rate changes to its borrowings. These swaps are typically entered into with a group of financial institutions with investment grade credit ratings, thereby reducing the risk of credit loss.

While our revenues and expenses are primarily represented by U.S. dollars, they also are represented by various other currencies, primarily the British Pound Sterling. Accordingly, we face the risk of fluctuations in non-U.S. currencies compared to U.S. dollars. We manage this currency risk by monitoring fluctuations in foreign currencies and, when exchange rates are appropriate, purchasing amounts of those foreign currencies. A hypothetical 10% strengthening in the exchange rate of the British pound sterling to the United States dollar as of March 31, 2007 would not have had a material effect on the Company's results of operations or financial position.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

We carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as that term is defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Exchange Act) as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based upon that evaluation, our principal executive officer and principal financial officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of the end of March 31, 2007.

There has been no change over internal control over financial reporting during the quarter ended March 31, 2007 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
