Prior to establishment of the Related Party Note, the Company owed the Chairman $3,000,000 which was advanced during 2005 for working capital and previously classified as Loans Payable - Related Party. The Related Party Note memorialized the cancellation of the demand nature of the $3,000,000 indebtedness owed by the Company to the Chairman and established a repayment date and condition of prepayment in the event the Company achieves a financing.

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(UNAUDITED- CONTINUED)
Note 15. | Business Segment Information. |
The Company is a national manufacturer and distributor with seven segments: Coatings, Foam, Paints, Sealants, Adhesives, Equipment, and All Other. The Company established these segments in the fourth quarter of 2005 due to a change in the structure of its internal organization which caused the composition of its prior reportable segments originally based on subsidiaries to change. The three and nine months ended September 30, 2005 has been restated to reflect the change. The Company’s segments are organized based on differences in products. The Company primarily manufactures coatings and distributes foam, paints, sealants, adhesives, equipment, and all other products. Production facilities are located in Texas, Florida and Arizona. The accounting policies of the segments are the same as those described in the summary of significant accounting policies. The Company allocates resources to segments and evaluates the performance of segments based upon reported segment income before income taxes. A substantial amount of administrative expenses are allocated to the segments. The portion not allocated to the segments represents the unallocated cost of certain corporate expenses, insurance, investor relations, and gains and losses related to the disposal of corporate assets and are included in Unallocated Amounts. There are no intersegment sales or transfers.

| Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations. |
Overview
This financial review presents our operating results for the quarter, and nine months, ended September 30, 2006 and 2005, and our financial condition at September 30, 2006. Except for the historical information contained herein, the following discussion contains forward-looking statements that are subject to known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors that may cause our actual results to differ materially from those expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. We discuss such risks, uncertainties and other factors under the caption “Forward Looking Statements” in this section of this report. In addition, the following review should be read in connection with the information presented in our consolidated financial statements and the related notes for the year ended December 31, 2005.
Performance for the Third Quarter of 2006 compared to the Third Quarter of 2005
Overall Results of Operations
The following is a summary of sales for the three months ended:
| | September 30, 2006 | | September 30, 2005 | |
Sales | | $ | 9,116,759 | | $ | 5,559,460 | |
Sales increased $3,557,298, or 64%, for the third quarter of 2006 compared to the third quarter of 2005, due to an increase in the number of sales personnel, independent representatives, and independent distributors selling our various existing and new product brands across all of our segments except for the sealants segment, which resulted in greater penetration in the markets in which we participate.
Gross profit increased $541,202, or 48%, for the three months ended September 30, 2006 compared to the three months ended September 30, 2005, due to sales volume growth in all of our segments except for the sealants segment. The gross margin decreased 1.9% for the third quarter of 2006 compared to the third quarter of 2005, primarily due to a disproportionate increase in sales in our foam segment through independent distributors instead of direct to contractors at a lower gross margin. Notwithstanding the foregoing decrease, we are continuing to benefit from economies of scale realized from increased purchasing power for the raw materials related to our manufactured and finished goods, improved manufacturing efficiencies, and changes in our product mix.
Total costs and expenses are comprised of cost of sales, selling, general and administrative expenses, or SG&A, professional fees, depreciation and amortization, consulting fees, interest expense, interest expense - related party, and other income (expense). These total costs and expenses increased $3,705,732, or 59%, for the third quarter of 2006 compared to the third quarter of 2005, due primarily to an increase of $3,016,096 for cost of sales, $674,916 for SG&A, $7,747 for professional fees, $26,014 for depreciation and amortization, and $30,699 for interest expense, offset by a decrease of $38,265 for interest expense - related party and $16,745 for consulting fees.
Cost of sales increased $3,016,096, or 67%, for the three months ended September 30, 2006 compared to the three months ended September 30, 2005, due to an increase in purchases of raw materials for manufactured and finished goods to support our sales growth.
SG&A increased $674,916, or 44%, for the quarter ended September 30, 2006 compared to the quarter ended September 30, 2005, due to an increase of $116,664 for payroll and related employee benefits, $113,536 for sales commissions, $66,370 for travel and related services, $147,644 for marketing, promotions and trade shows, $750 for director fees, $311,280 for bad debts, and $75,105 for corporate office expenses, offset by a decrease of $82,952 for insurances, $28,676 for advertising, $20,285 for recruiting fees, $5,625 for American Stock Exchange fees, $10,713 for investor relations, and $8,181 for rents.
Professional fees increased $7,747, or 17%, for the third quarter of 2006 compared to the third quarter of 2005, due to an increase of $17,527 in legal fees, offset by a decrease of $9,780 for outside accountants, auditing and auditing related services.
Depreciation and amortization expense increased $26,013, or 104%, for the three months ended September 30, 2006 compared to the three months ended September 30, 2005, due to an increase in depreciable property, plant and equipment, which is comprised of $38,170 for vehicles, $25,336 for machinery and equipment, $9,242 for officer furniture and equipment, and $77,617 for computer hardware and software.
Consulting fees decreased $16,745, or 33%, for the quarter ended September 30, 2006 compared to the quarter ended September 30, 2005, due to a decrease in outside professional services for investor relations, software implementation, and insurance.
Interest expense increased $30,699, or 135%, for the three months ended September 30, 2006 compared to the three months ended September 30, 2005, due to an increase in the aggregate amount of funds borrowed under our financing instruments.
Interest expense - related party decreased $38,264, or 42%, in the third quarter of 2006 compared to the third quarter of 2005, due to a decrease in the aggregate amount of funds borrowed under our financing instruments with the Chairman.
We had a loss of $5,000 from discontinued operations for the third quarter of 2006 for legal fees relating to litigation for discontinued operations compared to income of $5,269 for the third quarter of 2005.
Net loss and loss per share for the third quarter of 2006 were $1,385,767 and $0.025, respectively, compared to a $269,909 net loss and $0.006 net loss per share, for the third quarter of 2005. The net loss was primarily attributable to an increase in bad debt expense due to one of our long time customers filing for protection under Chapter 11 of the bankruptcy code, increase in the percentage used to calculate our provision for losses on trade receivables, increase in SG&A for our growing sales force, and decrease in our deferred tax asset due to the loss experienced in the third quarter of 2006.
We had accrued dividends of $1,323 from our newly designated Series D Preferred Stock sold to our Chairman in exchange for cancellation of indebtedness amounting to $6,900,000 at the end of the third quarter of 2006.
Net loss available to common stockholders and related loss per share for the third quarter of 2006 were $1,387,090 and $0.025. The increase in net loss is attributable to dividends accrued for the outstanding Series D Preferred Stock at the end of the third quarter of 2006.

Paints sales increased $32,422, or 15%, for the three months ended September 30, 2006 compared to the three months ended September 30, 2005, as a result of an increase in our sales force and limited regional advertising, marketing and promotional programs.

Sales increased $9,512,472, or 71%, for the nine months ended September 30, 2006 compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2005, due to an increase in the number of sales personnel, independent representatives, and independent distributors selling our various existing and new product brands across all of our segments, which resulted in greater penetration in the markets in which we participate.
Gross profit increased $2,157,514, or 90%, for the nine month period ended September 30, 2006 compared to the prior year’s nine month period, due to sales volume growth in all of our segments.

Interest expense - related party decreased $30,361, or 18%, for the nine month period ended September 30, 2006 compared to the prior year’s nine month period, due to a decrease in the aggregate amount of funds borrowed under our financing instruments with the Chairman.
Income from discontinued operations increased $294,542 for the nine months ended September 30, 2006 compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2006, due to gains from write offs of aged accounts payables and a reduction in the reserve for litigation, partially offset by an increase in legal fees.
Net loss and loss per share for the nine month period ended September 30, 2006 were $1,151,497 and $0.021, respectively, compared to a $2,690,143 net loss and $0.054 net loss per share, for the prior year’s nine month period.

Forward Looking Statements
Statements made by us in this report and in other reports and statements released by us that are not historical facts constitute “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, Section 21 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. These forward-looking statements are necessarily estimates reflecting the best judgment of senior management and express our opinions about trends and factors which may impact future operating results. You can identify these and other forward-looking statements by the use of words such as “may,” “will,” “should,” “expects,” “plans,” “anticipates,” “believes,” “estimates,” “predicts,” “intends,” “potential,” “continue,” or the negative of such terms, or other comparable terminology. Such statements rely on a number of assumptions concerning future events, many of which are outside of our control, and involve risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from opinions and expectations. Any such forward-looking statements, whether made in this report or elsewhere, should be considered in context with the various disclosures made by us about our businesses including, without limitation, the risk factors discussed below. In evaluating these statements, some of the factors that you should consider include the following: Financial position and results of operations, including general and administrative expense targets and effects on income from continuing operations; cash position and cash requirements, including the sufficiency of our cash requirements for the next twelve months; accounting estimates, including treatment of goodwill and intangible assets, doubtful accounts, inventory, warranty, and product returns; operations, supply chain, quality control, and manufacturing supply, capacity, and facilities; products and services, price of products, product lines, and product and sales channel mix; relationship with customers, suppliers and strategic partners; application specifications; credit facilities; real estate lease arrangements; industry trends and our response to these trends; sources of competition; outcome and effect of current and potential future litigation; common stock, including trading price; security of computer systems; and changes in accounting policies and practices, as may be adopted by regulatory agencies, and the Financial Accounting Standards Board. Consequently, while the list of factors presented here is considered representative, no such list should be considered to be a complete statement of all potential risks and uncertainties. Unlisted factors may present significant additional obstacles to the realization of forward-looking statements. Although we believe our expectations are based on reasonable assumptions, judgments, and estimates, forward-looking statements involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties, contingencies, and other factors that could cause our or our industry's actual results, level of activity, performance or achievement to differ materially from those discussed in or implied by any forward-looking statements made by or on the Company and could cause our financial condition, results of operations, or cash flows to be materially adversely affected. We do not plan to update any such forward-looking statements and expressly disclaim any duty to update the information contained in this report except as required by law.
| Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk. |
We do not issue or invest in financial instruments or their derivatives for trading or speculative purposes and are not subject to material foreign currency exchange risks at this time. Our outstanding debt and related interest expense, as it relates to interest rate exposure, in the United States is currently not material to our operations.
We maintain disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our Exchange Act reports is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Principal Executive Officer and our Principal Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures. Our management, including our Principal Executive Officer and our Principal Financial Officer, does not expect that our disclosure controls or procedures will prevent all error and all fraud. A control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met. Further, the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs. Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within us, have been detected. These inherent limitations include the realities that judgments in decision-making can be faulty, and that breakdowns can occur because of simple error or mistake. Additionally, controls can be circumvented by the individual acts of some persons, by collusion of two or more people, or by management override of the control. We carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Principal Executive Officer and our Principal Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of September 30, 2006, the end of the quarterly period covered by this report. The evaluation of our disclosure controls and procedures included a review of the disclosure controls’ and procedures’ objectives, design, implementation and the effect of the controls and procedures on the information generated for use in this report. In the course of our evaluation, we sought to identify data errors, control problems or acts of fraud and to confirm the appropriate corrective actions, including process improvements, were being undertaken. Based on the foregoing, our Principal Executive Officer and our Principal Financial Officer concluded that, as of the period covered by this report, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective and operating at a level appropriate to provide reasonable assurance. There were no changes in our internal controls after the third quarter of 2006.
