Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements |
The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance
with the instructions for Form 10-Q and do not include all of the information and disclosures
required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for complete
financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments, consisting only of normal
recurring adjustments considered necessary for a fair presentation, have been included. Operating
results for any quarter are not necessarily indicative of the results for any other quarter or for
the full year. These statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial
statements and notes to the consolidated financial statements thereto included in the Companys
Form 10-K for the year ended June 30, 2006.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In June 2006, the FASB issued FIN No. 48, Accounting for Uncertainty
in Income Taxes an interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109 , which clarifies the accounting
for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in an enterprises financial statements in accordance
with FASB Statement No. 109, Accounting for Income Taxes. The 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. FIN No. 48 requires
recognition of tax benefits that satisfy a greater than 50% probability threshold. FIN No. 48 also
provides guidance on derecognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in the
interim periods, disclosures, and transition. FIN No. 48 is effective for us beginning July 1,
2007. We are currently assessing the potential impact that adoption of FIN No. 48 will have on our
financial statements.
In September 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 157, Fair Value Measurements, which defines fair
value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in generally accepted accounting
principles, and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. SFAS No. 157 does not require
any new fair value measurements, but provides guidance on how to measure fair value by providing a
fair value hierarchy used to classify the source of the information. This statement is effective
for us beginning July 1, 2008. We are currently assessing the potential impact that adoption of
SFAS No. 157 will have on our financial statements.

currently available, management believes that existing accrued liabilities are sufficient and that
it is not reasonably possible at this time to believe that any additional liabilities will result
from the resolution of these matters that would have a material adverse effect on the Companys
consolidated results of operations, financial position or cash flows.

On September 1, 2005, the Bank and the Company agreed to an amendment of the credit facility.
In conjunction with the amendment to the Companys credit facility, the Bank extended the maturity
on the Companys revolving credit facility from April 24, 2007 to September 1, 2008. Based on the
Companys current level of debt, and performance, debt would bear interest at the Banks prime
rate. The prime rate was 8.25% on December 31, 2006. The interest rate on prime rate loans may
increase from prime to prime plus 0.75% if the ratio of the Companys funded debt to EBITDA exceeds
2.5. The amended credit facility also provides the Company with a rate of LIBOR plus 1.75%, at the
Companys option. The optional LIBOR rate may increase from LIBOR plus 1.75% to LIBOR plus 2.75%
based on the Companys fixed charge coverage ratio. The 90-day LIBOR rate was 5.36% at December
31, 2006.
At December 31, 2006 the Company had no aggregate indebtedness, including capital lease
obligations, short-term debt and long term debt.
The Company was in compliance with all of the financial covenants associated with its credit
facility at December 31, 2006.

Stock Repurchase Arrangement |
On August 25, 2005, the Board of Directors authorized repurchases of shares of the Companys
common stock pursuant to open market transactions in accordance with Rule 10b-18 under the
Securities Exchange Act or in privately negotiated block transactions. The authorization
permits repurchases from time to time until June 30, 2007 at the discretion of the Chairman of the
Board or the President and Chief Executive Officer. The authorization permits up to $1.0 million
to be applied to such repurchases. No specific number of shares are sought in connection with the
authorization. The Company received the consent of the Bank for this authorized repurchase. As of
December 31, 2006 no shares have been repurchased under this arrangement.
A reconciliation of deferred revenue resulting from the agreement with Abbott Laboratories
(Abbott), with the amounts received under the agreement, and amounts recognized as net sales is

In addition to the provisions of the agreement relating to the withdrawal of the
Baralyme® product, Abbott has agreed to pay Allied up to $2,150,000 in product development costs to
pursue development of a new carbon dioxide absorption product for use in connection with inhalation
anesthetics that does not contain potassium hydroxide and does not produce a significant exothermic
reaction with currently available inhalation agents. As of December 31, 2006; $420,000 has been
received, and $190,000 is receivable, as a result of product development activities. For the three
and six months ended December 31, 2006; $190,000 and $340,000, have been included in Net Sales,
respectively. For the three and six months ended December 31, 2006; $190,000 and $340,000 have
been included in Cost of Sales, respectively.
Item 2. Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Three Months ended December 31, 2006 compared to three months ended December 31, 2005.
Allied had net sales of $14.3 million for the three months ended December 31, 2006, up $1.0
million, or 7.5%, from net sales of $13.3 million in the prior year same quarter, as a result of
higher customer purchase order releases. Customer purchase order releases were $1.0 million higher
than in fiscal 2006. Purchase order release times depend on the scheduling practices of individual
customers. In addition, production
10
delays as a result of the component shortages which adversely
impacted shipments in the first quarter were rectified.
Sales for the three months ended December 31, 2006 include $116,250 for the recognition into
income of payments resulting from the agreement with Abbott Laboratories to cease the production
and distribution of Baralyme®. Sales for the three months ended December 31, 2006 also include
$190,000 as a result of product development activities to pursue development of a new carbon
dioxide absorption product. The agreement with Abbott provides for Abbott to pay Allied up to
$2,150,000 in product development cost to pursue development of a new carbon dioxide absorption
product for use in connection with inhalation anesthetics that does not contain potassium hydroxide
and does not produce a significant exothermic reaction with currently available inhalation agents.
The Company ceased the sale of Baralyme® on August 27th, 2004. Sales for the three
months ended December 31, 2005 include $116,250 for the recognition into income of payments
resulting from the agreement with Abbott Laboratories to cease the production and distribution of
Baralyme®. Sales for the three months ended December 31, 2005 also include $110,000 as a result of
product development activities to pursue development of a new carbon dioxide absorption product.
Income from the agreement will continue to be recognized over eight years, the term of the
agreement, at $38,750 per month. Allied continues to sell Carbolime®, a carbon dioxide absorbent
with a different formulation than Baralyme®.
Domestic sales were up 12.2% from the prior year same quarter, while international business,
which represented 19.4% of second quarter sales, was down 10.2%. Orders for the Companys products
for the three months ended December 31, 2006 of $13.3 million were $0.3 million or 2.3% lower than
orders for the prior year same quarter of $13.6 million. Domestic orders are down 2.8% over the
prior year same quarter while international orders remained unchanged.
Gross profit for the three months ended December 31, 2006 was $3.5 million, or 24.6% of net
sales, compared to $3.6 million, or 26.8% of net sales, for the three months ended December 31,
2005. The reduction in gross margins from the prior year period is the result of increases in
material cost which began to occur during fiscal 2006 and continue to negatively impact gross
margins during fiscal 2007. Material cost during the second quarter was 10.4% higher than in the
second quarter of the prior year. This increase in material cost over the prior year negatively
impacted gross profit by approximately $0.6 million during the three months ended December 31,
2006. Cost of sales for the three months ended December 31, 2006 also included $190,000 as a
result of product development of a new carbon dioxide absorption product.
Selling, general and administrative expenses for the three months ended December 31, 2006 were
$3.1 million, a net increase of $0.1 million, or 3.3%, from $3.0 million for the three months ended
December 31, 2005. Research and development expense increased by approximately $40,000 over the
same quarter of the prior year, this
11
increase is due to activities from the development of a new
product line. Salaries and benefits increased by $20,000 from the prior year as a result of
scheduled increases. There have not been changes to staffing levels from the prior year.
Income from operations was $0.4 million for the three months ended December 31, 2006 compared
to $0.5 million for the three months ended December 31, 2005. Interest income was $28,059 for the
three months ended December 31, 2006 compared to interest income of $18,718 for the three months
ended December 31, 2005. Allied had income before provision for income taxes in the second
quarter of fiscal 2007 of $0.5 million, compared to income before provision for income taxes in the
second quarter of fiscal 2006 of $0.6 million. The Company recorded a tax provision of $0.2
million for the three-months ended December 31, 2006 and 2005.
Net income for the second quarters of fiscal 2007 and 2006 were $0.3 million or $0.04 per
basic and diluted share. The weighted average number of common shares outstanding, used in the
calculation of basic earnings per share for the second quarters of fiscal 2007 and 2006 were
7,877,120 and 7,832,186 shares respectively. The weighted average number of common shares
outstanding used in the calculation of diluted earnings per share for the second quarters of fiscal
2007 and fiscal 2006 were 8,059,573 and 8,050,069 shares, respectively.
Six Months ended December 31, 2006 compared to six months ended December 31, 2005.
Allied had net sales of $28.8 million for the six months ended December 31, 2006, up $0.5
million, or 1.8%, from net sales of $28.3 million in the prior year same period. The overall sales
increase is primarily due to the timing of customer purchase order releases and Company shipping
performance. While orders were down slightly, customer purchase order releases were $0.4 million
higher than in fiscal 2006. Purchase order release times depend on the scheduling practices of
individual customers.
Sales for the six months ended December 31, 2006 include $232,500 for the
recognition into income of payments resulting from the agreement with Abbott Laboratories to cease
the production and distribution of Baralyme®. Sales for the six months ended December 31, 2006
also include $340,000 as a result of product development activities to pursue development of a new
carbon dioxide absorption product. The agreement with Abbott provides for Abbott to pay Allied up
to $2,150,000 in product development cost to pursue development of a new carbon dioxide absorption
product for use in connection with inhalation anesthetics that does not contain potassium hydroxide
and does not produce a significant exothermic reaction with currently available inhalation agents.
The Company ceased the sale of Baralyme® on August 27th, 2004. Sales for the six
months ended December 31, 2005 include $232,500 for the recognition into income of payments
resulting from the agreement with Abbott Laboratories to cease the production and distribution of
Baralyme®. Sales for the six months ended December 31, 2005 also include $184,000 as a result of
product development activities to pursue
12
development of a new carbon dioxide absorption product.
Income from the agreement will continue to be recognized over eight years, the term of the
agreement, at $38,750 per month. Allied continues to sell Carbolime®, a carbon dioxide absorbent
with a different formulation than Baralyme®.
Domestic sales were up 3.5% from the first six months of the prior year, while international
business, which represented 17.4% of the first six months of sales, was down 7.0%. Orders for the
Companys products for the six months ended December 31, 2006 of $27.1 million were $0.5 million or
1.8% lower than orders for the prior year same period of $27.6 million. International orders are
down 8.7% over the prior year same period while domestic orders remained unchanged. The Company
believes that the decrease in international orders, primarily for international construction
projects, is a result of order timing, and is not reflective of a loss of market share. Purchase
order releases were $0.4 million higher than in the first six months of the prior year. Purchase
order release lead times depend on the scheduling practices of the individual customers. With
improved shipping performance and purchase order release lead times, total sales increased 1.5%
over prior year levels during the first six months.
Gross profit for the six months ended December 31, 2006 was $7.0 million, or 24.5% of net
sales, compared to $7.5 million, or 26.6% of net sales, for the six months ended December 31, 2005.
The reduction in gross margins from the prior year period is the result of increases in material
cost which began to occur during fiscal 2006 and continue to negatively impact gross margins during
fiscal 2007. This increase in material cost over the prior year negatively impacted gross profit by
approximately $1.0 million during the six months ended December 31, 2006. Cost of sales for the
six months ended December 31, 2006 also included $340,000 as a result of product development of a
new carbon dioxide absorption product.
Selling, general and administrative expenses for the six months ended December 31, 2006 were
$6.3 million, a net increase of $0.1 million, or 1.6%, from $6.2 million for the six months ended
December 31, 2005. This includes a $0.1 million increase in research and development expense due
to activities from the development of a new product line. Salaries and benefits increased by
$50,000 from the prior year as a result of scheduled increases. There have not been changes in
staffing levels over the prior year. The increase in selling, general and administrative expense
also includes an increase of approximately $40,000 in relocation expense. These increases have
been partially offset by a $0.1 million decrease in legal fees compared to the same period of the
prior year.
Income from operations was $0.8 million for the six months ended December 31, 2006 compared to
$1.3 million for the six months ended December 31, 2005. Interest income was $56,228 for the six
months ended December 31, 2006 compared to interest
income of $26,675 for the six months ended December 31, 2005. Allied had income before
provision for income taxes for the first six months of fiscal 2007 of $0.9 million, compared to
income before provision for income taxes for the first six months of fiscal 2006 of $1.4 million.
The Company recorded a tax provision of $0.4 million for the six-
13
month period ended December 31,
2006, versus a tax provision of $0.6 million for the six-month period ended December 31, 2005.
In fiscal 2007, the net income for the first six months was $0.5 million or $0.06 per basic
and diluted share compared to net income of $0.8 million or $0.10 per basic and diluted share for
the first six months of fiscal 2006. The weighted average number of common shares outstanding, used
in the calculation of basic earnings per share for the first six months of fiscal 2007 and 2006
were 7,868,512 and 7,830,881 shares, respectively. The weighted average number of common shares
outstanding used in the calculation of diluted earnings per share for the first six months of
fiscal 2007 and fiscal 2006 were 8,064,650 and 8,041,758 shares, respectively.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
The Company believes that available resources and anticipated cash flows from operations
are sufficient to meet operating requirements in the coming year.
The Companys working capital was $15.4 million at December 31, 2006 compared to $14.6 million
at June 30, 2006. Inventory increased by $0.7 million as a result of an effort by the Company to
increase inventory levels of key items to improve customer service levels. Other current assets
increased $0.3 million as a result of an increase in prepaid insurance; cash and cash equivalents
increased $0.1 million, and accrued liabilities decreased $0.2 million. At December 31, 2006,
these increases in working capital were offset by an increase in accounts payable of $0.5 million.
Accounts receivable of $7.4 million remained unchanged at December 31, 2006. Accounts receivable
as measured in days sales outstanding (DSO) decreased to 44 DSO at December 31, 2006 from 46 DSO
at June 30, 2006.
On August 25, 2005, the Board of Directors authorized repurchases of shares of the Companys
common stock pursuant to open market transactions in accordance with Rule 10b-18 under the
Securities Exchange Act or in privately negotiated block transactions. The authorization
permits repurchases from time to time until June 30, 2007 at the discretion of the Chairman of the
Board or the President and Chief Executive Officer. The authorization permits up to $1.0 million
to be applied to such repurchases. No specific numbers of shares are sought in connection with the
authorization. The Company received the consent of the Bank for this authorized repurchase. As of
December 31, 2006 no shares have been repurchased under this arrangement.
On September 1, 2005, the Bank and the Company agreed to an amendment of the credit facility.
In conjunction with the amendment to the Companys credit facility, the Bank extended the maturity
on the Companys revolving credit facility from April 24, 2007 to September 1, 2008. Based on the
Companys current level of debt, and
performance, debt would bear interest at the Banks prime rate. The prime rate was 8.25% on
December 31, 2006. The interest rate on prime rate loans may increase from prime to prime plus
0.75% if the ratio of the Companys funded debt to EBITDA exceeds 2.5. The amended credit facility
also provides the Company with a rate of LIBOR plus 1.75%, at the Companys option. The optional
LIBOR rate may increase from LIBOR
14
plus 1.75% to LIBOR plus 2.75% based on the Companys fixed
charge coverage ratio. The 90-day LIBOR rate was 5.36% at December 31, 2006.
At December 31, 2006 the Company had no aggregate indebtedness, including capital lease
obligations, short-term debt and long term debt.
The Company was in compliance with all of the financial covenants associated with its credit
facility at December 31, 2006.
In the event that economic conditions were to severely worsen for a protracted period of time,
we believe that our borrowing capacity under our credit facilities will provide sufficient
financial flexibility. The Company would have options available to ensure liquidity in addition to
increased borrowing. Capital expenditures, which are budgeted at $0.8 million for the fiscal year
ended June 30, 2007, could be postponed. At December 31, 2006, the Company had no bank debt.
Based on the Companys current level of debt, and performance, debt would bear interest at the
Banks prime rate. The Companys agreement with the Bank does include provisions for higher
interest rates at higher debt levels and different levels of Company performance.
During the first half of fiscal 2007 increases in raw material cost, particularly copper, have
continued to negatively impact Company earnings. Copper is a major component of brass, which is
used in many Allied products. These increases have resulted in second quarter material cost being
approximately 10.5% higher than in the second quarter of the prior year.
Litigation and Contingencies
The Company becomes, from time to time, a party to personal injury litigation arising out of
incidents involving the use of its products. The Company believes that any potential judgments
resulting from these claims over its self-insured retention will be covered by the Companys
product liability insurance.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In June 2006, the FASB issued FIN No. 48, Accounting for Uncertainty
in Income Taxes an interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109 , which clarifies the accounting
for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in an enterprises financial statements in accordance
with FASB Statement No. 109, Accounting for Income Taxes. The 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. FIN No. 48 requires
recognition of tax benefits that satisfy a greater than 50% probability threshold. FIN No. 48 also
provides guidance on derecognition,
classification, interest and penalties, accounting in the interim periods, disclosures, and
transition. FIN No. 48 is effective for us beginning July 1, 2007. We are currently assessing the
potential impact that adoption of FIN No. 48 will have on our financial statements.
15
In September 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 157, Fair Value Measurements, which defines fair
value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in generally accepted accounting
principles, and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. SFAS No. 157 does not require
any new fair value measurements, but provides guidance on how to measure fair value by providing a
fair value hierarchy used to classify the source of the information. This statement is effective
for us beginning July 1, 2008. We are currently assessing the potential impact that adoption of
SFAS No. 157 will have on our financial statements.
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosure about Market Risk
At December 31, 2006, the Company did not have any debt outstanding. The revolving credit
facility bears an interest rate using the commercial banks floating reference rate or LIBOR as
the basis, as defined in the loan agreement, and therefore is subject to additional expense should
there be an increase in market interest rates.
The Company had no holdings of derivative financial or commodity instruments at December 31,
2006. Allied Healthcare Products has international sales; however these sales are denominated in
U.S. dollars, mitigating foreign exchange rate fluctuation risk.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
(a) As of December 31, 2006, the Company, under the supervision, and with the participation,
of its management, including its principal executive officer and principal financial officer,
performed an evaluation of the Companys disclosure controls and procedures, as contemplated by
Securities Exchange Act Rule 13a-15. Based on that evaluation, the Companys principal executive
officer and principal financial officer concluded that such disclosure controls and procedures were
effective as of December 31, 2006.
(b) There has been no change in our internal controls over financial reporting during the
quarter ended December 31, 2006, that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to
materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
