Explanatory Paragraph
Armstrong Holdings, Inc., (“AHI”) is filing this Amendment to its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2006, which was originally filed on April 2, 2007. The Amendment incorporates the April 2, 2007 decision of the U.S. Bankruptcy Court that presided over Armstrong World Industries, Inc,’s (AWI) Chapter 11 case regarding the settlement with AWI into the financial statements and related disclosures. The settlement covered intercompany claims and tax rights. Therefore, the Amendment reflects events that occurred after the initial filing.
As required under Rule 12b-15 promulgated under the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, the Company’s principal executive officer and principal financial officer are providing new Rule 13a-14(a) certifications in connection with this Form 10-K/A (but otherwise identical to their prior certifications) and are also furnishing, but not filing, new written statements pursuant to section 906 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002. Also, the Company is filing an updated Consent of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm.

Uncertainties Affecting Forward-Looking Statements
Our disclosures here and in other public documents and comments sometimes contain forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act. Those statements provide our future expectations or forecasts, and can be identified by our use of words such as “anticipate,” “estimate,” “expect,” “project,” “intend,” “plan,” “believe,” “outlook,” etc. in discussions of future operating or financial performance or the outcome of contingencies such as liabilities or legal proceedings.
Any of our forward-looking statements may turn out to be wrong. Actual future results may differ materially. Forward-looking statements involve risks and uncertainties (such as those discussed in the Risk Factors section below) because they relate to events and depend on circumstances that may or may not occur in the future. We undertake no obligation to update any forward-looking statement.
You should take into account risks and uncertainties that affect our business, operations and financial condition in evaluating any investment decision involving AHI. It is not possible to predict all factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from expected and historical results. The discussion in the “Risk Factors” section below at Item 1A is a summary of what we currently believe to be our most significant risk factors. Related disclosures in subsequent 10-K, 10-Q and 8-K reports should also be consulted.

PART I
ITEM 1. | BUSINESS |
Armstrong Holdings, Inc. (“AHI”) is a Pennsylvania corporation. AHI is the parent company of Armstrong Worldwide, Inc. (“AWWD”) and AHI Funding Company, LLC. The Company has conducted no business and has had no operations and no employees since the Company’s stock ownership in Armstrong World Industries, Inc. (“AWI”) was cancelled on October 2, 2006.
When we refer to the “Company,” “we”, “our” and “us” in this report, we are referring collectively to AHI and its subsidiary AWWD.
The Company previously was the parent holding company of AWI. On December 6, 2000, AWI filed a petition for relief under Chapter 11 of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code to achieve a resolution of its asbestos-related liability. On October 2, 2006, AWI emerged from Chapter 11 reorganization under its Fourth Amended Plan of Reorganization (the “Chapter 11 Plan”), which provided for the cancellation of the AWI stock owned by the Company. (The Chapter 11 Plan and related documents are available atwww.armstrongplan.com.)
The Company and its shareholders were not entitled to any distribution under the AWI Chapter 11 Plan in respect of the Company’s former ownership of AWI. However, the Company filed a claim against AWI with respect to intercompany accounts owed to it. In addition, upon the cancellation of the Company’s ownership interest in AWI, the Company realized a substantial tax loss. This loss is in addition to the tax loss which AWI incurred in connection with the consummation of its Chapter 11 Plan.
Due to their affiliated status through October 1, 2006, the Company and AWI are required by the IRS to file a consolidated 2006 federal tax return by September 15th of this year. As a result of the above-mentioned tax losses, the Armstrong consolidated tax group is entitled to recover estimated tax payments made by AWI to the IRS in 2006, and in addition has the ability to elect to carry back the group’s tax losses either two or ten years in order to recover taxes paid in those years.
The election made in the 2006 tax return will benefit the Company and AWI differently, and the Company’s and AWI’s respective preferences for utilization of the group’s tax losses would not necessarily be the same. Moreover, there is no IRS regulation nor any prior written agreement between the companies that prescribed how to allocate tax refunds between them.
In order to resolve the Company’s claim against AWI, determine how to handle the tax elections and establish the Company’s and AWI’s respective rights to prospective tax refunds, the Board of Directors of the Company appointed a special committee of the Board comprised of independent outside directors Jerre L. Stead and M. Edward Sellers. Neither of these directors was at that time or is now a current or prospective director or officer of AWI. The special committee engaged the law firm of McDermott, Will & Emery to advise it in connection with these matters.
Following negotiations of the special committee and their legal counsel with AWI, on February 26, 2007 the Company announced that a settlement (the “Settlement”) had been reached with AWI.
The Settlement called for AWI to pay the Company $20 million in cash related to the tax matters, and gave the Company an allowed claim under AWI’s Chapter 11 Plan of $8.5 million related to the intercompany claims. The Company recovered on this claim on the same basis as other unsecured creditors of AWI. The initial distribution in satisfaction of the $8.5 million claim consisted of approximately $2 million in cash plus 98,697 shares of reorganized AWI. The Settlement also gave AWI the right to make all relevant tax elections and file all required tax returns on behalf of the Armstrong tax filing group for all relevant tax periods through 2006, and to receive and retain all related tax refunds.

Table of Contents
The Settlement was approved by the U.S. Bankruptcy Court in Wilmington, Delaware that presided over AWI’s Chapter 11 case on April 2, 2007. Under the terms of the Settlement, the Company received the cash and AWI common stock proceeds in April 2007. The Company sold the AWI common stock in the open market during April 2007.
Under the Settlement, AWI will administer both companies’ tax returns for 2006. Depending on elections that AWI would make, the Company’s worthless stock tax loss, and related loss available for carry forward, could be significantly reduced.
If the Company does have a tax loss to carry forward after the 2006 tax return is filed, it is highly uncertain whether the Company would be able to utilize this loss in any practical fashion that would serve the interests of shareholders. Internal Revenue Service rules concerning use of such losses are highly complicated and restrictive, and their effective use may be severely restricted if an ownership change of the Company occurs, as defined in IRS regulations. The Company is studying these issues.
AWI’s Chapter 11 Plan contemplates that the Company would dissolve following AWI’s emergence from Chapter 11 reorganization. The Armstrong Holdings Board of Directors is evaluating what future action is in the best interests of the Company, including the matter of dissolution and an evaluation of its assets, obligations and tax position.
If a plan of dissolution is authorized by the Board of Directors, the proposed plan would be submitted to shareholders for approval. If a plan of dissolution is approved by shareholders, a distribution to shareholders of the Company’s net assets would be effected as soon as practicable thereafter. The dissolution process would involve a number of steps, such as noticing any potential claimants, resolving any viable claims and obtaining tax clearance from the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania.
As discussed above, AWI’s Chapter 11 Plan provided that the former capital stock of AWI, all of which was held by the Company was cancelled upon that Chapter 11 Plan becoming effective.
Other provisions of the AWI Chapter 11 Plan affecting the Company include the following:
• | AHI, AWWD and their directors and officers have protection from liability for asbestos liabilities of AWI as specified in that Plan pursuant to Section 3.2(g). |
• | AWI assumed obligations to indemnify certain directors and officers of AHI who served during the course of AWI’s Chapter 11 case for their service under Section 8.6. |
• | All existing equity compensation plans of AHI (which had previously been used to compensate employees of AWI and its subsidiaries) were terminated pursuant to Section 8.7. |
• | AHI, AWWD and their officers, directors, employees and agents received the benefit of certain exculpation provisions of Section 11.6. |
• | AWI will bear costs and expenses of AHI for a reasonable time through an eventual dissolution of AHI contemplated in the Plan as provided in Section 7.24. |
This description of the provisions of the AWI Chapter 11 Plan is qualified in its entirety by reference to the terms thereof.

ITEM 1A. | RISK FACTORS |
As noted in the introductory section above titled, “Uncertainties Affecting Forward-Looking Statements”, the Company’s financial condition is subject to substantial risks. You should take them into account in evaluating any investment decision. It is not possible to predict or identify all factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from expected and historical results. The following discussion is a summary of what we believe to be our most significant risk factor. These and other factors could cause our actual results to differ materially from those in forward-looking statements made in this report.
No matter how accurate our foresight, how well we evaluate risks, and how effective we are at mitigating them, it is still possible that one of these problems or some other issue could have serious consequences for the Company. See related discussions in this document and our other SEC filings for more details and subsequent disclosures.
A final federal income tax return for the Company and AWI on a consolidated basis is expected to be filed for 2006 by September 15, 2007. Both the Company and AWI will report substantial tax losses in this tax return. The Company will claim a loss due to the cancellation of its ownership of AWI on October 2, 2006. The amount of the Company’s loss used in the upcoming tax return as an offset to past income in order to generate refunds depends on elections made with the return. Further, the amount of the Company’s loss realized from the cancellation of its ownership of AWI depends on the acceptance by the Internal Revenue Service of the calculated amount of the Company’s worthless stock deduction.
Some portion of the Company’s worthless stock loss may be used as a carry back against taxable income in prior years, with the remainder, if any, to be applied to future tax years. The Company’s ability to use the balance of any tax loss carry forward is subject to limitations that may be applicable for federal income tax purposes in the event of certain changes in ownership of the Company, and to the Company’s ability to generate future taxable income. There is no assurance such a limiting change in ownership has not and will not occur. Further, since October 2, 2006, the Company has conducted no business and has had no operations or employees, so there is no assurance that there will be significant future taxable income.

On August 23, 2006, the Company announced it had claims in AWI’s Chapter 11 case (the AHI Claim). The AHI Claim related to intercompany charges and credits between the companies and tax losses and refunds. On February 26, 2007, AHI and AWI announced they had reached a settlement on all intercompany claims and tax matters and on April 2, 2007, the settlement was approved by the U.S. Bankruptcy Court. See Item 1 for further details on the settlement.

ITEM 7. | MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS |
OVERVIEW
Armstrong Holdings, Inc. (“AHI”) is a Pennsylvania corporation. AHI is the parent company of Armstrong Worldwide, Inc. (“AWWD”). The Company has conducted no business and has had no operations and no employees since the Company’s stock ownership in Armstrong World Industries, Inc. (“AWI”) was cancelled on October 2, 2006.
When we refer to the “Company,” “we”, “our” and “us” in this report, we are referring collectively to AHI and its subsidiary AWWD.
The Company previously was the parent holding company of AWI. On December 6, 2000, AWI filed a petition for relief under Chapter 11 of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code to achieve a resolution of its asbestos-related liability. On October 2, 2006, AWI emerged from Chapter 11 reorganization under its Fourth Amended Plan of Reorganization (the “Chapter 11 Plan”), which provided for the cancellation of the AWI stock owned by the Company. (The Chapter 11 Plan and related documents are available atwww.armstrongplan.com.)
The Company and its shareholders were not entitled to any distribution under the AWI Chapter 11 Plan in respect of the Company’s former ownership of AWI. However, the Company filed a claim against AWI with respect to intercompany accounts owed to it. In addition, upon the cancellation of the Company’s ownership interest in AWI, the Company realized a substantial tax loss. This loss is in addition to the tax loss which AWI incurred in connection with the consummation of its Chapter 11 Plan.
Due to their affiliated status through October 1, 2006, the Company and AWI are required by the IRS to file a consolidated 2006 federal tax return by September 15th of this year. As a result of the above-mentioned tax losses, the Armstrong consolidated tax group is entitled to recover estimated tax payments made by AWI to the IRS in 2006, and in addition has the ability to elect to carry back the group’s tax losses either two or ten years in order to recover taxes paid in those years.

The Settlement was approved by the U.S. Bankruptcy Court in Wilmington, Delaware that presided over AWI’s Chapter 11 case on April 2, 2007. Under the terms of the Settlement, the Company received the

cash and AWI common stock proceeds in April 2007. The Company sold the AWI common stock in the open market during April 2007.
Under the Settlement, AWI will administer both companies’ tax returns for 2006. Depending on elections that AWI would make, the Company’s worthless stock tax loss, and related loss available for carry forward, could be significantly reduced.
If the Company does have a tax loss to carry forward after the 2006 tax return is filed, it is highly uncertain whether the Company would be able to utilize this loss in any practical fashion that would serve the interests of shareholders.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
All activity of AWI and its subsidiaries has been reclassified as discontinued operations due to the cancellation of AHI’s ownership in AWI effective October 2, 2006. Since AHI has no operations, there are no amounts reported on a continuing operations basis. See “Overview” for further discussion.

FINANCIAL CONDITION AND LIQUIDITY
As shown on the Consolidated Balance Sheets, AHI had no cash as of December 31, 2006. However, AHI received approximately $22.1 million of cash during April 2007 as a result of the Settlement between AHI and AWI. The Company also received 98,697 share of AWI common stock as part of the Settlement, which it sold in the open market during April 2007, resulting in additional cash proceeds of approximately $5 million.
AWI’s Chapter 11 Plan contemplates that the Company would dissolve following AWI’s emergence from Chapter 11 reorganization. The AHI Board of Directors is evaluating what future action is in the best interests of the Company, including the matter of dissolution and an evaluation of its assets, obligations and tax position.
If a plan of dissolution is authorized by the Board of Directors, the proposed plan would be submitted to shareholders for approval. If a plan of dissolution is approved by shareholders, a distribution to shareholders of the Company’s net assets would be effected as soon as practicable thereafter.
Since AHI does not conduct any business or operations, AHI does not expect to incur any operating expenses, cash outlays or liquidity needs in the foreseeable future. Under the terms of AWI’s POR, AWI will bear costs and expenses of AHI for a reasonable time through an eventual dissolution of AHI.
OFF-BALANCE SHEET ARRANGEMENTS
No disclosures are required pursuant to Item 303(a)(4) of Regulation S-K.
RELATED PARTIES
AHI’s stock ownership in AWI was cancelled on October 2, 2006. However, AHI filed a claim against AWI with respect to intercompany accounts owed to it.

Note: All activity of AWI and its subsidiaries has been reclassified as discontinued operations due to the cancellation of AHI’s ownership in AWI effective October 2, 2006. Since AHI has no operations, there are no amounts reported on a continuing operations basis.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
The Board of Directors and Shareholders
Armstrong Holdings, Inc.:
We have audited the accompanying consolidated financial statements of Armstrong Holdings, Inc. and subsidiaries (“the Company”) as listed in the accompanying index on page 14. These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Armstrong Holdings, Inc. and subsidiaries as of December 31, 2006 and 2005, and the results of their operations and their cash flows for each of the years in the three-year period ended December 31, 2006, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.
The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 1 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company has conducted no business and has had no operations since the Company’s stock ownership in Armstrong World Industries, Inc. was cancelled on October 2, 2006 and the Board of Directors is evaluating what future action is in the best interests of the Company, including the matter of dissolution and an evaluation of its assets, obligations and tax position. These matters raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of that uncertainty.

NOTE 1. BUSINESS
Armstrong Holdings, Inc. (“AHI”) is a Pennsylvania corporation. AHI is the parent company of Armstrong Worldwide, Inc. (“AWWD”). The Company has conducted no business and has had no operations and no employees since the Company’s stock ownership in Armstrong World Industries, Inc. (“AWI”) was cancelled on October 2, 2006.
When we refer to the “Company,” “we”, “our” and “us” in this report, we are referring collectively to AHI and its subsidiary AWWD.
The Company previously was the parent holding company of AWI. On December 6, 2000, AWI filed a petition for relief under Chapter 11 of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code to achieve a resolution of its asbestos-related liability. On October 2, 2006, AWI emerged from Chapter 11 reorganization under its Fourth Amended Plan of Reorganization (the “Chapter 11 Plan”), which provided for the cancellation of the AWI stock owned by the Company.
The Company and its shareholders were not entitled to any distribution under the AWI Chapter 11 Plan in respect of the Company’s former ownership of AWI. However, the Company filed a claim against AWI with respect to intercompany accounts owed to it. In addition, upon the cancellation of the Company’s ownership interest in AWI, the Company realized a substantial tax loss. This loss is in addition to the tax loss which AWI incurred in connection with the consummation of its Chapter 11 Plan.
Due to their affiliated status through October 1, 2006, the Company and AWI are required by the IRS to file a consolidated 2006 federal tax return by September 15th of this year. As a result of the above-mentioned tax losses, the Armstrong consolidated tax group is entitled to recover estimated tax payments made by AWI to the IRS in 2006, and in addition has the ability to elect to carry back the group’s tax losses either two or ten years in order to recover taxes paid in those years.
The election made in the 2006 tax return will benefit the Company and AWI differently, and the Company’s and AWI’s respective preferences for utilization of the group’s tax losses would not necessarily be the same. Moreover, there is no IRS regulation nor any prior written agreement between the companies that prescribed how to allocate tax refunds between them.
In order to resolve the Company’s claim against AWI, determine how to handle the tax elections and establish the Company’s and AWI’s respective rights to prospective tax refunds, the Board of Directors of the Company appointed a special committee of the Board comprised of independent outside directors Jerre L. Stead and M. Edward Sellers. Neither of these directors was at that time or is now a current or prospective director or officer of AWI. The special committee engaged the law firm of McDermott, Will & Emery to advise it in connection with these matters.
Following negotiations of the special committee and their legal counsel with AWI, on February 26, 2007 the Company announced that a settlement (the “Settlement”) had been reached with AWI.
The Settlement called for AWI to pay the Company $20 million in cash related to the tax matters, and gave the Company an allowed claim under AWI’s Chapter 11 Plan of $8.5 million related to the intercompany claims. The Company recovered on this claim on the same basis as other unsecured creditors of AWI. The initial distribution in satisfaction of the $8.5 million claim consisted of approximately $2.1 million in cash plus 98,697 shares of reorganized AWI. The Settlement also gave AWI the right to make all relevant tax elections and file all required tax returns on behalf of the Armstrong tax filing group for all relevant tax periods through 2006, and to receive and retain all related tax refunds.
The Settlement was approved by the U.S. Bankruptcy Court in Wilmington, Delaware that presided over AWI’s Chapter 11 case on April 2, 2007. Under the Settlement, the Company received the cash and AWI common stock proceeds in April 2007. The Company sold the AWI common stock in the open market during April 2007.

Under the Settlement, AWI will administer both companies’ tax returns for 2006. Depending on elections that AWI makes, the Company’s worthless stock tax loss, and related loss available for carry forward, could be significantly reduced.
If the Company does have a tax loss to carry forward after the 2006 tax return is filed, it is highly uncertain whether the Company would be able to utilize this loss in any practical fashion that would serve the interests of shareholders. Internal Revenue Service rules concerning use of such losses are highly complicated and restrictive, and their effective use may be severely restricted if an ownership change of the Company occurs, as defined in IRS regulations. The Company is studying these issues.
AWI’s Chapter 11 Plan contemplates that the Company would dissolve following AWI’s emergence from Chapter 11 reorganization. The Armstrong Holdings Board of Directors is evaluating what future action is in the best interests of the Company, including the matter of dissolution and an evaluation of its assets, obligations and tax position.
If a plan of dissolution is authorized by the Board of Directors, the proposed plan would be submitted to shareholders for approval. If a plan of dissolution is approved by shareholders, a distribution to shareholders of the Company’s net assets would be effected as soon as practicable thereafter. The dissolution process would involve a number of steps, such as noticing any potential claimants, resolving any viable claims and obtaining tax clearance from the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania.
As discussed above, AWI’s Chapter 11 Plan provided that the former capital stock of AWI, all of which was held by the Company was cancelled upon that Chapter 11 Plan becoming effective.
Other provisions of the AWI Chapter 11 Plan affecting the Company include the following:
• | AHI, AWWD and their directors and officers have protection from liability for asbestos liabilities of AWI as specified in that Plan. |
• | AWI assumed obligations to indemnify certain directors and officers of AHI who served during the course of AWI’s Chapter 11 case for their service. |
• | All existing equity compensation plans of AHI (which had previously been used to compensate employees of AWI and its subsidiaries) were terminated. |
• | AHI, AWWD and their officers, directors, employees and agents received the benefit of certain exculpation provisions. |
• | AWI will bear costs and expenses of AHI for a reasonable time through an eventual dissolution of AHI contemplated in the Plan. |

NOTE 2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Consolidation Policy. The consolidated financial statements and accompanying data in this report include the accounts of AHI and its majority-owned subsidiary, AWWD.
Use of Estimates. These financial statements are prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles and include management estimates and judgments, where appropriate. When preparing an estimate, management determines the amount based upon the consideration of relevant information. Management may confer with outside parties, including outside counsel. Actual results may differ from these estimates.
Earnings per Common Share. Basic earnings per share is computed by dividing the earnings by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per common share reflect the potential dilution of securities that could share in the earnings.
Stock-based Employee Compensation. On January 1, 2006, we adopted FASB Statement No. 123 (revised 2004), “Share-Based Payment” (“FAS 123R”). Prior to January 1, 2006, we used the intrinsic value method for stock-based employee compensation. There would have been no effect on net income if we had applied the fair value recognition provisions of FAS 123R to share-based employee compensation in 2005 and 2004. See Note 7 for additional information on FAS 123R.
NOTE 3. DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS
As more fully described in Note 1, AHI’s sole operation was conducted through its indirect ownership of all capital stock of AWI. Upon AWI’s Plan of Reorganization becoming effective on October 2, 2006, all then-current shares of AWI were cancelled, effectively ending AHI’s ownership interest in AWI. Accordingly, no revenue and expenses associated with operating activities of AWI have been reflected since October 2, 2006.
In accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 144, “Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-lived Assets”, the financial statements at December 31, 2006 and all prior periods have been reclassified to reflect AWI as a discontinued operation. Upon AWI’s emergence on October 2, 2006, AHI recorded a net gain on the disposition of AWI in the amount of $1,585.7 million. Included in that net gain is an impairment loss of $8.5 million, which arose from the settlement of intercompany claims due from AWI approved by the bankruptcy court on April 2, 2007. As part of that settlement, AHI received cash of approximately $2.1 million and 98,697 shares of newly emerged AWI stock, valued at $4.2 million as of December 31, 2006. Additionally, in settlement of tax matters relating to consolidated tax filings and refunds, AHI also received $20 million directly from AWI. The Company believes these proceeds will not be subject to federal or state income taxes.

The $26.3 million receivable at December 31, 2006 represents the expected proceeds from the settlement between AHI and AWI on all inter-company claim and tax matters. The settlement calls for AWI to pay AHI $20 million in cash related to the tax matters and gives AHI an allowed claim under AWI’s POR related to the intercompany claims. The POR claim was settled for approximately $2.1 million in cash and 98,697 shares of newly emerged AWI stock, valued at $4.2 million at December 31, 2006. AHI received these proceeds in April 2007.
The $0.1 million receivable at December 31, 2006 represents the reimbursement of AHI legal, audit and director fees. In accordance with the AWI POR, AWI will bear costs and expenses of AHI for a reasonable time through an eventual dissolution of AHI. See Note 5.
All accounts and notes receivable held at December 31, 2005 are included in ‘Assets of discontinued business.’

NOTE 6. INCOME TAXES
The tax effects of principal temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities and their tax bases are summarized in the table below. Because AHI has no operations, management has provided a full valuation allowance for net operating loss carryforwards of $1,008.4 million for federal taxes and $60.0 million for state taxes. The Company’s ability to use the balance of any tax loss carry forward is subject to limitations that may be applicable for federal income tax purposes in the event of certain changes in ownership of the Company, and to the Company’s ability to generate future taxable income. There is no assurance such a limiting change in ownership has not and will not occur. Further, since October 2, 2006, the Company has conducted no business and has had no operations or employees, so there is no assurance that there will be significant future taxable income.
The net operating loss (“NOL”) carryforward assumes that AWI will elect a 2-year carryback. AWI has until September 15, 2007 to decide whether to choose a 10-year, 2-year or no carryback. The gross amount of NOL carryforward for AHI may be substantially lower depending on this decision by AWI. The NOL carryforward may be carried forward for 20 years for federal and state taxes.

NOTE 7. STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION PLANS
On January 1, 2006, we adopted FASB Statement No. 123 (revised 2004), “Share-Based Payment” (“FAS 123R”), which requires all share-based payment transactions to be recognized in the financial statements using a fair-value method of accounting. This statement replaced FASB Statement No. 123 and superseded APB Opinion No. 25. Prior to January 1, 2006, we used APB Opinion No. 25’s intrinsic value method for stock-based employee compensation. We used the modified prospective method of adopting FAS 123R, which does not require restatement of prior periods. There was no impact of adoption of the new standard because all of our outstanding stock options are fully vested. There would have been no effect on 2005 or 2004 net income if we had applied the fair value recognition provisions of FAS 123R to share-based employee compensation in those years because all outstanding awards were also fully vested in those periods.
Prior to AWI’s Chapter 11 Filing, stock options, stock appreciation rights in conjunction with stock options, performance restricted shares and restricted stock awards were issued under 1993 and 1999 Long-Term Stock Incentive Plans. Restricted stock was issued in 2000 under a 2000 Stock Award Plan. These three plans were terminated effective October 2, 2006.
No equity based compensation has been granted since AWI’s Chapter 11 filing date, other than commitments entered into prior to the Chapter 11 filing.
Options were granted to purchase shares at prices not less than the closing market price of the shares on the dates the options were granted. The options generally became exercisable in one to three years and expire 10 years from the date of grant.

Although the plans under which these options were issued were terminated upon AWI’s emerging from Chapter 11, the existing option contracts remain enforceable against AHI.
Restricted stock awards were used for the purposes of recruitment, special recognition and retention of key employees. No award of restricted stock shares had been granted since 2000. There were 111,463 restricted shares of AHI common stock outstanding with 596 accumulated dividend equivalent shares outstanding during the year that expired upon AWI emerging from Chapter 11 on October 2, 2006.
We recognize compensation expense on a straight-line basis over the vesting period. There was no share-based compensation expense recorded in 2006, 2005 or 2004. There was also no cash flow impact of these awards.
As of December 31, 2006, there was no unrecognized compensation cost related to nonvested share-based compensation arrangements.
NOTE 8. CONTINGENCIES
There are no material pending legal proceedings to which the Company or any of its subsidiaries is a party or of which any of their property is the subject. The Company has conducted no business and has had no operations and no employees since its stock ownership in AWI was cancelled on October 2, 2006. Accordingly, AHI has not recorded any contingent liabilities.
NOTE 9. SHAREHOLDERS’ EQUITY
Treasury share changes for 2006, 2005 and 2004 are as follows:

NOTE 10. EARNINGS PER SHARE
In 2004, the diluted loss per share is calculated using basic common shares outstanding since using diluted common shares would be anti-dilutive. The difference between the average number of basic and diluted common shares outstanding is due to contingently issuable shares.
NOTE 11. RELATED PARTIES
AHI’s stock ownership in AWI was cancelled on October 2, 2006. However, AHI filed a claim against AWI with respect to intercompany accounts owed to it. In addition, upon the cancellation of AHI’s ownership interest in AWI, AHI realized a substantial tax loss. On February 26, 2007, AHI announced that a settlement had been reached with AWI, which was approved by the bankruptcy court on April 2, 2007. See Note 1 for further discussion.
In accordance with the AWI POR, AWI will bear costs and expenses of AHI for a reasonable time through an eventual dissolution of AHI. During the fourth quarter of 2006, AHI incurred $0.2 million of costs for legal, audit and director fees, which are reimbursable by AWI.

Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) regulations require Company directors and executive officers, and any persons beneficially owning more than ten percent of its common stock to report to the SEC their ownership of this stock and any changes in that ownership.

ITEM 11. | EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION |
COMPENSATION DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
The Company was the parent holding company of AWI from May 2000 until its ownership of AWI ended October 2, 2006. As a result of the two companies’ past affiliation, each of the Company’s officers is an employee of AWI, and AWI has been responsible for their compensation. Since AWI is responsible for the expenses of the Company under the provisions of AWI’s Chapter 11 Plan referred to in Item 1 above, the Company expects to have no compensation expense in the future unless it decides not to dissolve.
COMPENSATION COMMITTEE REPORT
Since October 2, 2006, the Company has had no separate compensation committee. The Board of Directors has discussed the above disclosure and approved it for inclusion in this report.
SUMMARY COMPENSATION
Over the time period for which disclosure is called for under this Item, the Company’s officers have not been paid any compensation or received any equity or non-equity incentive awards for services rendered to the Company.
OUTSTANDING EQUITY AWARDS AT FISCAL YEAR END
No awards under any compensation or incentive plan involving Company stock have been granted since 2001, other than commitments entered into prior to AWI’s Chapter 11 filing on December 6, 2000. The table captioned “Security Ownership of Management” in Item 12 shows options granted to Messrs. Lockhart, Rigas, Rodruan and Stead prior to that date.
OPTION EXERCISES AND STOCK VESTED
None of the Company’s executive officers exercised any stock options, stock appreciation rights or similar instruments or acquired stock awards, restricted stock units or similar instruments during 2006.
PENSION BENEFITS AND DEFERRED COMPENSATION
The Company has no pension, deferred compensation, or retirement payment plans.
POTENTIAL PAYMENTS UPON TERMINATION OR CHANGE IN CONTROL
As an artifact of the Company’s relationship with AWI, the Company is a named party to Change-in-Control agreements with all of its executive officers and several other AWI employees for which AWI is primarily responsible. The Company expects to address these agreements in the context of evaluating a potential dissolution.

ITEM 13. | CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS |
Transactions with Related Persons
None.
Oversight and Review of Transactions with Related Persons
The Company’s Code of Business Conduct and its Corporate Governance Principles and governance documents address officer and director independence from conflicting interests as well as procedures for the review, approval or ratification of transactions with related persons. The Audit Committee is charged with reviewing and approving any proposed related-party transactions by the Company involving directors, nominees and/or executive officers and other persons.
Any proposed “related party transaction” involving any executive officer, director or director nominee as defined under SEC Regulation SK, Item 404 must be approved by the Audit Committee comprised of independent directors who must have no connection with the transaction. Any waiver of the Company’s Code of Business Conduct, particularly its conflicts-of-interest provisions, that is proposed to apply to any director or executive officer must be reviewed in advance by the same Committee, which is responsible for making a recommendation to the Board of Directors for approval or disapproval. The Board’s decision on any such matter would be disclosed publicly in compliance with applicable law.
The governance documents referred to above (namely the Company’s Code of Business Conduct and its Corporate Governance Principles) are substantially similar to those of its former subsidiary, Armstrong World Industries, Inc., which can be found on AWI’s web site at Armstrong.com under “About Armstrong” and “Corporate Governance.”
Director Independence
The Board has determined that each of its two non-employee directors, namely, Messrs. Sellers and Stead, is independent, meaning in the Board’s business judgment each meets the standards of independence specified in the Company’s Corporate Governance Principles, SEC Rule 10A-3(b)(1) and New York Stock Exchange Rule 303A.02, and has no relationship with the Company or its management that may interfere with the exercise of his responsibilities on the Board or any committee.
The Board’s determinations were based upon consideration of relationships between directors and the Company or management, and of factors that reasonably could compromise the independent judgment of a director. For example, the Board considered whether there were any director relationships with service providers and considered whether any director had sought to influence any decisions by the Company in a manner beneficial to their personal interests. There were no transactions, relationships or arrangements disclosed by any non-employee director for the Board to consider in this regard.
The Board, led by its Audit Committee, monitors the independence of outside directors. Each director is charged with a responsibility of candor and disclosure to their Board colleagues relative to potentially compromising relationships, transactions and compensation.
