NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(UNAUDITED)
A. Basis of Presentation and Significant Accounting Policies
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying interim unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q and applicable rules and regulations. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. In managements opinion, all adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of the financial position, results of operations and cash flows have been included and are of a normal, recurring nature. The results of operations for the three and nine months ended March 31, 2006 are not necessarily indicative of the operating results for the full fiscal year or any future periods.
You should read the financial statements and these notes, which are an integral part of the financial statements, together with our audited financial statements included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2005 (2005 Annual Report). The accounting policies used to prepare the financial statements included in this report are the same as those described in the notes to the consolidated financial statements in our 2005 Annual Report unless otherwise noted below.
Stock-Based Compensation
We have an equity incentive plan under which we have granted nonqualified and incentive stock options to employees, non-employee directors and consultants. We also have an employee stock purchase plan. Before July 1, 2005, we accounted for stock-based awards to employees, including shares issued pursuant to the employee stock purchase plan, under the recognition and measurement provisions of Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees (APB 25), and related interpretations, as permitted by Statement of Financial Accounting Standard No. 123, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation (SFAS 123).
Effective July 1, 2005, we adopted the fair value recognition provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123R, Share Based Payment (SFAS 123R), using the modified-prospective-transition method. Under that transition method, compensation cost is recognized (a) for all stock-based awards granted before, but not yet vested as of, July 1, 2005, based on the grant date fair value estimated in accordance with the original provisions of SFAS 123, and (b) for all stock-based awards granted after July 1, 2005, based on the grant-date fair value estimated in accordance with the provisions of SFAS 123R. Results for prior periods have not been restated.
We estimated the fair value of the stock option awards at the date of grant and employee stock purchase plan shares at the beginning of the offering period using the Black-Scholes option valuation model. The Black-Scholes option valuation model was developed for use in estimating the fair value of traded options that have no vesting restrictions and are fully transferable. Option valuation models require the input of highly subjective assumptions, including expected life and stock price volatility.
Effective April 27, 2005, our Board of Directors approved the acceleration of the vesting of all outstanding and unvested options held by directors, officers and other employees under our 1999 Omnibus Equity Incentive Plan. As a result of the acceleration, options to acquire 827,932 shares of our common stock, which otherwise would have vested over the next 36 months, became immediately exercisable. This action was taken to eliminate, to the extent permitted, the transition expense that we otherwise would have incurred in connection with the adoption of SFAS 123R.
On December 2, 2005, pursuant to our 1999 Omnibus Equity Incentive Plan, our Board of Directors granted options to buy 100,000 shares, in the aggregate, of NAIs common stock to John Dullea, the President of RHL, at an exercise price of $6.655 per share and with a term of five years. The options vest 34% on December 2, 2006 and an additional 33% on each of December 2, 2007 and December 2, 2008.

The following table illustrates the effect on net income and net income per common share as if the fair value method had been applied to all outstanding and unvested awards in each period (in thousands, except per share data):

Net Income per Common Share
We compute net income per common share in accordance with SFAS 128, Earnings Per Share. This statement requires the presentation of basic income per common share, using the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period, and diluted net income per common share, using the additional dilutive effect of all dilutive securities. The dilutive impact of stock options account for the additional weighted average shares of common stock outstanding for our diluted net income per common share computation. We calculated basic and diluted net income per common share as follows (in thousands, except per share data):

Shares related to stock options of 262,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2005, and 154,000 for the nine months ended March 31, 2005, were excluded from the calculation of diluted net income per common share, as the effect of their inclusion would have been anti-dilutive.

B. Acquisition
On December 5, 2005, we acquired Real Health Laboratories, Inc. (RHL), an integrated direct marketer of branded nutritional supplements and other lifestyle products. RHL, with net sales of $10.0 million for its fiscal year ended October 31, 2005, markets and distributes its own branded nutraceutical products and third party branded nutraceutical products that address major health related matters including general wellness, arthritis support, prostate support and sexual function enhancement for both men and women. RHLs operations include in-house creative, catalog design, supply chain management and call center and fulfillment activities. We believe the acquisition of RHL marks a significant advance in our strategy to market our own branded products and expand our distribution channels and could provide the following benefits:
| Additional expertise in direct marketing and retail channels; |
| Existing leading branded products in the Food, Drug and Mass Market (FDM) retail channel; |
| Access to additional direct marketing and mass-market channels for NAIs existing products and concepts; and |
| Cost savings from integrating certain NAI outsourced activities with RHLs existing operations and eliminating certain duplicative costs. |
The aggregate consideration given to the selling stockholders of RHL by NAI in connection with the acquisition was approximately $8.7 million, consisting of cash in the amount of $5.8 million and the issuance of 510,000 shares of NAIs authorized but unissued shares of common stock, $0.01 par value per share. Additionally, NAI assumed $590,000 of RHLs debt, which was repaid at the close of the acquisition, and agreed to pay $35,000 of the legal fees and expenses incurred by RHL and the selling stockholders in connection with the acquisition. At the close of the acquisition, RHL became a wholly owned subsidiary of NAI.
The RHL acquisition was accounted for as a purchase business combination in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 141 Business Combinations. Assets acquired and liabilities assumed were recorded in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet at their fair values as of December 5, 2005. The allocation is based on a preliminary valuation using managements estimates and assumptions and is subject to adjustment as we have not yet finalized our evaluation. The preliminary allocation of the purchase price, including the consideration given to RHLs selling stockholders and associated transaction costs, was allocated to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed at December 5, 2005, as follows (in thousands):

| A decrease in net income in the amount of $63,000 pre-tax or $40,000 after-tax for the three months ended March 31, 2005, $126,000 pre-tax or $80,000 after-tax for the nine months ended March 31, 2006, and $189,000 pre-tax or $119,000 after-tax for the nine months ended March 31, 2005, to reflect the amortization of purchased intangible assets; and |
| Diluted net income per common share includes the impact of the 510,000 shares of NAIs common stock issued as part of the consideration for the RHL acquisition. |
The unaudited pro forma consolidated financial information presented above does not take into account any benefit that may result from the acquisition of RHL due to synergies that may be derived from the elimination of any duplicative costs, nor has it been adjusted to remove the effect of a one-time reduction of net sales related to a rebate program offered by RHL to introduce a new product and develop the RHL brand. Under the terms of the rebate program, the customers of a major Food, Drug and Mass Market (FDM) retailer were offered a one-time rebate on a certain RHL product purchased during the period September 25, 2005 through October 25, 2005 (Rebate Period), provided the customer submitted a completed rebate form to the FDM retailer postmarked no later than November 5, 2005. In accordance with the FASB Emerging Issues Task Force Abstract (EITF) No. 01-09, Accounting for Consideration Given by a Vendor to a Customer (Including a Reseller of the Vendors Products), the results of the rebate program were included as a reduction to revenue during the Rebate Period, which resulted in a decrease to net income in the amount of $1 million pre-tax or $630,000 after tax for the nine months ended March 31, 2006.

F. Debt
We amended our credit facility on December 1, 2005 and again on March 29, 2006 to increase our working capital line of credit from $8.0 million to $12.0 million, extend the maturity date from November 2006 to November 2007 and modify certain financial covenants.
We obtained an additional $3.8 million term loan on December 5, 2005, to fund, in part, the cash purchase price of the RHL acquisition, and an additional $2.5 million loan commitment on March 29, 2006, to fund, in part, raw material purchases and other matters in connection with the fulfillment of orders from one of our new private label contract manufacturing customers.
As a result of the amendments and additional term loan and loan commitment, our bank credit facility increased to a total of $23.4 million, comprised of a $12.0 million working capital line of credit, $2.5 million loan commitment and $8.9 million in term loans. The working capital line of credit is secured by our accounts receivable and other rights to payment, general intangibles, inventory and equipment, has an interest rate of Prime Rate or LIBOR plus 1.75%, as elected by NAI from time to time, and borrowings are subject to eligibility requirements for current accounts receivable and inventory balances. The loan commitment bears interest at a rate equal to the Prime Rate or LIBOR plus 1.75%, as elected by NAI from time to time, and will be due and payable in full on May 31, 2006. The term loans consist of a $1.1 million fifteen year term loan due June 2011, secured by our San Marcos building, at an interest rate of 8.25%; a $700,000 ten year term loan with a twenty year amortization, secured by our San Marcos building, at an interest rate of LIBOR plus 2.25%; a $1.8 million four year term loan, secured by our accounts receivable and other rights to payment, general intangibles, inventory and equipment, at an interest rate of LIBOR plus 2.10%; a $1.5 million five year term loan, secured by equipment, at an interest rate of LIBOR plus 2.10%; and the $3.8 million four year term loan, secured by equipment, at an interest rate of LIBOR plus 2.10%. Monthly payments on the term loans are approximately $138,000 plus interest.
As of March 31, 2006, the amount outstanding on the working capital line of credit was $4.1 million and the amount outstanding on the term loans was $6.8 million. We did not have an outstanding balance on the loan commitment. As of March 31, 2006, we had $5.1 million available under the line of credit, net of a $134,000 outstanding letter of credit issued to our landlord.
As of March 31, 2006, in accordance with our lease agreement, we reduced our outstanding letter of credit issued to our landlord to $134,000.
The composite interest rate on all of our outstanding debt was 6.68% at March 31, 2006, and 4.87% at March 31, 2005.
G. Defined Benefit Pension Plan
We sponsor a defined benefit pension plan that provides retirement benefits to employees based generally on years of service and compensation during the last five years before retirement. Effective June 20, 1999, our Board of Directors amended the plan to freeze the accrued benefit of each plan member at its then current amount and to no longer allow inactive plan members or other employees to become active members of the plan. We contribute an amount not less than the minimum funding requirements of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 nor more than the maximum tax-deductible amount.

J. Contingencies
From time to time, we become involved in various investigations, claims and legal proceedings that arise in the ordinary course of our business. These matters may relate to product liability, employment, intellectual property, tax, regulation, contract or other matters. The resolution of these matters as they arise will be subject to various uncertainties and, even if such claims are without merit, could result in the expenditure of significant financial and managerial resources. While unfavorable outcomes are possible, based on available information, we generally do not believe the resolution of these matters, including that discussed below, will result in a material adverse effect on our business, consolidated financial condition, or results of operation. However, a settlement payment or unfavorable outcome could adversely impact our results of operation. Our evaluation of the likely impact of these actions, including that discussed below, could change in the future and we could have unfavorable outcomes that we do not expect.
On February 10, 2005, a complaint was filed against NAI on behalf of Novogen Research Pty. Ltd. in the United States District Court, Southern District of New York alleging a cause of action for patent infringement of a Novogen patent by products manufactured by NAI. Novogen had originally agreed to settle the matter for a one-time payment by NAI of $75,000. However, final settlement terms were not formally agreed to and Novogen has since increased its settlement demand to $125,000. Terms of a settlement continue to be negotiated and there can be no assurance that this matter will be resolved in an out-of-court settlement.
As of May 9, 2006, other than as set forth above, neither NAI nor its subsidiaries were a party to any material pending legal proceeding nor was any of their property the subject of any material pending legal proceeding.

ITEM 2. | MANAGEMENTS DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS |
The following discussion and analysis is intended to help you understand our financial condition and results of operations for the three and nine months ended March 31, 2006. You should read the following discussion and analysis together with our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and the notes to the condensed consolidated financial statements included under Item 1 in this report, as well as the information included in our 2005 Annual Report and other reports and documents we file with the SEC. Our future financial condition and results of operations will vary from our historical financial condition and results of operations described below.
Executive Overview
The following overview does not address all of the matters covered in the other sections of this Item 2 or other items in this report or contain all of the information that may be important to our stockholders or the investing public. This overview should be read in conjunction with the other sections of this Item 2 and this report.
Our primary business activity is to provide private label contract manufacturing services to companies that market nutritional supplements. Our revenue is dependent, to a large degree, on two customers who market nutritional supplements through the direct sales marketing channel. The timing of our customers orders is impacted by their marketing programs, supply chain management, entry into new markets and new product introductions. All of these attributes have had and will have a significant impact on our business.
Private label contract manufacturing net sales decreased 9% from the comparable year to date period last year. An increase in net sales to our largest customer was offset by a reduction in net sales to our second largest customer. Net sales to our two largest customers as a percentage of total net sales decreased to 77% from 78% in the comparable year to date period last year.
A cornerstone of our strategy is to generate long-term growth and diversification of our net sales. During fiscal 2006, we have focused and expect to continue to focus on the following initiatives:
| Leveraging our new facility and TGA recertification to: |
| Increase the value of the goods and services we provide to our highly valued customers; and |
| Assist us in developing relationships with additional quality oriented customers; |
| Implementing focused initiatives to market our own branded products through new distribution channels; |
| Identifying and evaluating acquisition opportunities that could increase product lines and expand distribution channels. |
We believe our efforts to generate long-term growth and diversification of our net sales are beginning to be rewarded based on the following accomplishments:
| Obtained two new contract manufacturing customers; and |
| Acquisition of Real Health Laboratories, Inc. (RHL), an integrated direct marketer of branded nutritional supplements and other lifestyle products. |
We have established relationships with two new customers who are leaders in the direct sales marketing channel. We expect to fill orders for these two new customers in excess of $10 million during the last three months of our fiscal year ending June 30, 2006. We remain optimistic our relationships with these new customers will continue though there can be no assurance of future sales.
On December 5, 2005, we completed the acquisition of RHL, which primarily markets branded nutritional supplements and other lifestyle products through the following channels:
| Wholesale distribution of RHL branded products to Food, Drug and Mass Market (FDM) retailers; and |
| As We Change (AWC), a lifestyle catalog geared towards women between the ages of 45 and 65. |
RHLs operations include in-house creative, catalog design, supply chain management and call center and fulfillment activities. RHLs branded nutritional supplements address major health related matters including general wellness, arthritis support, prostate support and sexual function enhancement for both men and women.

Table of Contents
We believe the acquisition of RHL marks a significant advance in our strategy to market our own branded products and expand our distribution channels and could provide the following benefits:
| Additional expertise in direct marketing and retail channels; |
| Existing leading branded products in the FDM retail channel; |
| Access to additional direct marketing and mass-market channels for NAIs existing products and concepts; and |
| Cost savings from integrating certain NAI outsourced activities with RHLs existing operations and eliminating certain duplicative costs. |
During the third quarter we integrated previously outsourced fulfillment activities for our Dr. Cherry Pathway to Healing® product line into RHLs existing operation, which should generate cost savings in future periods.
Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
The preparation of our financial statements requires that we make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in our financial statements and their accompanying notes. We have identified certain policies that we believe are important to the portrayal of our financial condition and results of operations. These policies require the application of significant judgment by our management. We base our estimates on our historical experience, industry standards, and various other assumptions that we believe are reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results could differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions. An adverse effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, and results of operations could occur if circumstances change that alter the various assumptions or conditions used in such estimates or assumptions.
Our critical accounting policies are discussed under Item 7 of our 2005 Annual Report. There have been no significant changes to these policies during the nine months ended March 31, 2006, except for our policies described below as a result of the acquisition of RHL on December 5, 2005.
Goodwill and Intangible Asset Valuation
The purchase method of accounting for acquisitions requires extensive use of accounting estimates and judgments to allocate the purchase price to the fair value of the net tangible and intangible assets acquired. Goodwill and intangible assets deemed to have indefinite lives are not amortized, but are subject to annual impairment tests. The amounts and useful lives assigned to other intangible assets impact future amortization. Determining the fair values and useful lives of intangible assets requires the use of estimates and the exercise of judgment. While there are a number of different generally accepted valuation methods to estimate the value of intangible assets acquired, we primarily use the discounted cash flow method and relief-from-royalty method. These methods require significant management judgment to forecast the future operating results used in the analysis. In addition, other significant estimates are required such as residual growth rates and discount factors. The estimates we use to value and amortize intangible assets are consistent with the plans and estimates that we use to manage our business and are based on available historical information and industry estimates and averages. These judgments can significantly affect our net operating results.
We are required to assess goodwill impairment annually using the methodology prescribed by Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 142, Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets (SFAS 142). SFAS 142 requires that goodwill be tested for impairment at the reporting unit level on an annual basis or more frequently if we believe indicators of impairment exist. Application of the goodwill impairment test requires judgment, including the identification of reporting units, assigning assets and liabilities to reporting units, assigning goodwill to reporting units and determining the fair value of each reporting unit. The goodwill impairment test compares the implied fair value of the reporting unit with the carrying value of the reporting unit. The implied fair value of goodwill is determined in the same manner as in a business combination. Determining the fair value of the implied goodwill is judgmental in nature and often involves the use of significant estimates and assumptions. These estimates and assumptions could have a significant impact on whether or not an impairment charge is recognized and also the magnitude of any such charge. Estimates of fair value are primarily determined using discounted cash flows and market comparisons. These approaches use significant estimates and assumptions, including projection and timing of future cash flows, discount rates reflecting the risk inherent in future cash flows, perpetual growth rates, determination of appropriate market comparables, and determination of whether a premium or discount should be applied to comparables. It is reasonably possible that the plans and estimates used to value these assets may be incorrect. If our actual results, or the plans and estimates used in
14
Table of Contents
future impairment analyses, are lower than the original estimates used to assess the recoverability of these assets, we could incur additional impairment charges.
Revenue Recognition
We have expanded our revenue recognition accounting policies to account for payments made to RHLs customers in accordance with EITF No. 01-09 and sales transactions where the buyer has the right to return the product in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 48, Revenue Recognition When Right of Return Exists (SFAS 48).
EITF No. 01-09 states that cash consideration (including a sales incentive) given by a vendor to a customer is presumed to be a reduction of the selling prices of the vendors products or services and, therefore, should be characterized as a reduction of revenue when recognized in the vendors income statement, rather than a sales and marketing expense. RHL has various agreements with customers that provide for discounts and rebates. These agreements are classified as a reduction of revenue. Certain other costs associated with customers that meet the requirements of EITF No. 01-09 are recorded as sales and marketing expense.
SFAS 48 states that revenue from sales transactions where the buyer has the right to return the product shall be recognized at the time of sale only if (1) the sellers price to the buyer is substantially fixed or determinable at the date of sale, (2) the buyer has paid the seller, or the buyer is obligated to pay the seller and the obligation is not contingent on resale of the product, (3) the buyers obligation to the seller would not be changed in the event of theft or physical destruction or damage of the product, (4) the buyer acquiring the product for resale has economic substance apart from that provided by the seller, (5) the seller does not have significant obligations for future performance to directly bring about resale of the product by the buyer, and (6) the amount of future returns can be reasonably estimated. Revenue is recognized upon determination that all criteria for revenue recognition have been met. The criteria are usually met at the time title passes to the customer, which usually occurs upon delivery and an allowance is recorded for the estimated future returns.

(1) | Resulted primarily from lower average prices per unit, which reduced our net sales growth by four percentage points, partially offset by higher volumes of established products in existing markets, which contributed three percentage points of the net sales growth. |
(2) | Resulted primarily from higher volumes of established products in existing markets, which contributed five percentage points of the net sales growth, partially offset by lower average prices per unit, which reduced our net sales growth by three percentage points. |
(3) | Resulted primarily from a shift in sales mix to lower priced products, which resulted in six percentage points of the decrease over the comparable quarter and comparable year to date period last year, partially offset by the introduction of existing products into new markets and changes in volumes of established products in existing markets. |
(4) | We discontinued relationships with two of our customers in March 2005 due to the disproportionate risks related to inventory levels and accounts receivable required to continue serving these customers. |
Gross profit margin increased 7.1 percentage points from the comparable quarter and 0.8 percentage points from the comparable year to date period last year. The change in gross profit margin was primarily due to the following:

(1) | The shift in sales mix resulted primarily from powder sales comprising a lower percentage of sales compared to the comparable quarter and year to date periods last year. Powder products typically include higher material cost as a percentage of selling price compared to capsule or tablet products, resulting in lower gross profit margins. |
(2) | Overhead expenses decreased $211,000 from the comparable quarter and increased $608,000 from the comparable year to date period last year primarily due to: |
| Incremental expenses related to our facility expansion in Vista, California and Lugano, Switzerland as follows: |
| Rent and facility related expenses of $100,000 over the comparable quarter and $288,000 over the comparable year to date period last year; and |
| Depreciation and amortization expenses related primarily to our facility expansion in Vista, California of $195,000 over the comparable quarter and $486,000 over the comparable year to date period last year; |
| Incremental freight and shipping expense of $130,000 over the comparable quarter and $269,000 over the comparable year to date period last year; partially offset by |

| Reduced outsourced lab testing of $286,000 from the comparable quarter and $160,000 from the comparable year to date period last year; and |
| Incremental capitalized overhead of $229,000 from the comparable quarter and $208,000 from the comparable year to date period last year for the additional work in process inventory that we expect to ship in our fourth quarter of fiscal 2006. |
(3) | Direct and indirect labor decreased as a percentage of net sales from the comparable quarter primarily due to an increase in capitalized labor for the additional work in process inventory that we expect to ship in our fourth quarter of fiscal 2006. Direct and indirect labor increased as a percentage of net sales from the comparable year to date period last year primarily due to producing higher volumes of products with a lower average price per unit. |
Selling, general and administrative expenses increased $1.3 million, or 37%, from the comparable quarter and $405,000, or 4% from the comparable year to date period last year primarily due to the following:
| Additional RHL selling, general and administrative expenses of $1.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2006 and $1.9 million for the nine months ended March 31, 2006; and |
| Incremental direct-to-consumer marketing brand development expenses of $167,000 over the comparable quarter and $319,000 over the comparable year to date period last year primarily for the launch on a test basis of a new direct mail campaign featuring Dr. Richard Linchitz, a nationally recognized physician, and TheraflexTM, one of our proprietary formulas. We plan to continue testing this direct mail campaign in the fourth quarter; partially offset by |
| Reduced NAI selling, general and administrative expenses of $521,000 from the comparable quarter and $1.8 million from the comparable year to date period last year. These savings were primarily due to nonrecurring TGA regulatory and Sarbanes-Oxley compliance expenses incurred last year and reduced personnel expenses due to the termination of regulatory compliance and product formulation personnel in June 2005. |
Other expense, net decreased $107,000 from the comparable quarter and increased $108,000 from the comparable year to date period last year primarily due to the following:
| A decrease in foreign exchange loss of $180,000 from the comparable quarter and $12,000 from the comparable year to date period last year due to the weakening of the Euro and the related impact on the translation of Euro denominated cash and receivables; and |
| An increase in interest expense of $73,000 over the comparable quarter and $109,000 over the comparable year to date period last year primarily due to the following: |
| Additional $3.8 million term loan obtained in December 2005 to partially fund the RHL acquisition; |
| Increase in our weighted average interest rate on our variable rate debt; and |
| Incremental utilization of our line of credit to fund the increase in inventory for orders we expect to ship in the fourth quarter. |
Our effective tax rate for the nine months ended March 31, 2006 increased to 37.2% from 30.9% in the comparable year to date period last year primarily due to the expiration of NAIEs Swiss federal and cantonal income tax holiday that ended on June 30, 2005. Under the tax holiday, NAIEs effective tax rate for Swiss federal, cantonal and communal taxes was approximately 5% compared to our current effective rate of approximately 23%.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Our primary sources of liquidity and capital resources are cash flows provided by operating activities and the availability of borrowings under our credit facility. Net cash used in operating activities was $230,000 for the nine months ended March 31, 2006, compared to net cash provided by operating activities of $1.9 million for the comparable year to date period last year. Our operating cash flow during the nine months ended March 31, 2006 was impacted by the following:
| Net income of $1.5 million; |
| Reduction of accounts receivable of $4.3 million; and |
| Incremental inventory of $9.7 million. |
The additional investment in inventory was for orders from our two new private label contract manufacturing customers that we expect to ship in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2006.

Cash provided by operating activities for the nine months ended March 31, 2005 included payments of $1.6 million under our Management Incentive Plan.
Cash used in investing activities for the nine months ended March 31, 2006 included $5.6 million of net cash used in the acquisition of RHL. The reconciliation of RHL net assets acquired to net cash used in the acquisition at December 5, 2005, is as follows (in thousands):

Approximately $647,000 of our operating cash flow was generated by NAIE during the nine months ended March 31, 2006. As of March 31, 2006, NAIEs undistributed retained earnings are considered indefinitely reinvested.
Our consolidated debt increased to $10.9 million at March 31, 2006 from $3.8 million at June 30, 2005 primarily due to the additional $3.8 million term loan obtained from our credit facility to fund, in part, the cash purchase price of the RHL acquisition, and $4.1 million outstanding on our working capital line of credit for the additional investment in inventory for orders from our two new private label contract manufacturing customers.
We amended our credit facility on December 1, 2005 and again on March 29, 2006 to increase our working capital line of credit from $8.0 million to $12.0 million, extend the maturity date and modify certain financial covenants. The amendments included (i) an increase in our ratio of total liabilities/tangible net worth covenant from 1.25/1.0 to 1.75/1.0 through June 30, 2006 (the ratio returns to 1.25/1.0 from July 1, 2006 through June 30, 2007 and to 1.0/1.0 thereafter); (ii) a limit on capital expenditures of $5,500,000 for fiscal years 2006 and 2007; (iii) an extension of the maturity date for the working capital line of credit from November 2006 to November 2007; (iv) an increase in our ability to incur additional aggregate annual operating lease expenses from $100,000 to $500,000 without prior approval from the lender; (v) an increase in our ability to create specific indebtedness other than with our current lender from $0 to $1,000,000; (vi) replacement of the EBITDA coverage ratio with a fixed charge coverage ratio (aggregate of net profit after taxes, depreciation and amortization expenses and net contributions/aggregate current maturity of long-term debt and capitalized lease payments) not less than 1.25/1.0 as of each fiscal quarter end; (vii) an increase in borrowings against eligible inventory from $3.0 million to $6.0 million, provided the outstanding borrowings shall not at any time exceed eligible accounts receivable; (viii) a change in permissible accounts receivable concentration to allow up to 35% for a new customer acceptable to the lender; and (ix) a change in the calculation of the fixed charge coverage ratio (aggregate of net profit after taxes, depreciation and amortization expenses and net contributions/aggregate current maturity of long-term debt and capitalized lease payments) to a rolling 4-quarter basis from each fiscal quarter end.
We obtained an additional $3.8 million term loan on December 5, 2005, to fund, in part, the cash purchase price of the RHL acquisition, and an additional $2.5 million loan commitment on March 29, 2006, to fund, in part, raw material purchases and other matters in connection with the fulfillment of orders from one of our new private label contract manufacturing customers.
As a result of the amendments and additional term loan and loan commitment, our bank credit facility increased to a total of $23.4 million, comprised of a $12.0 million working capital line of credit, $2.5 million loan commitment and $8.9 million in term loans. The working capital line of credit is secured by our accounts receivable and other rights to payment, general intangibles, inventory and equipment, has an interest rate of Prime Rate or LIBOR plus 1.75%, as elected by NAI from time to time, and borrowings are subject to eligibility requirements for current accounts receivable and inventory balances. The loan commitment bears interest at a rate equal to the Prime Rate or LIBOR plus 1.75%, as elected by NAI from time to time, and will be due and payable in full on May 31, 2006. The term loans consist of a $1.1 million fifteen year term loan due June 2011, secured by our San Marcos building, at an interest rate of 8.25%; a $700,000 ten year term loan with a twenty year amortization, secured by our San Marcos building, at an interest rate of LIBOR plus 2.25%; a $1.8 million four year term loan, secured by our accounts receivable and other rights to payment, general intangibles, inventory and equipment, at an interest rate of LIBOR plus 2.10%; a $1.5 million five year term loan, secured by equipment, at an interest rate of LIBOR plus 2.10%; and the $3.8 million four year term loan, secured by equipment, at an interest rate of LIBOR plus 2.10%. Monthly payments on the term loans are approximately $138,000 plus interest.

As of March 31, 2006, the amount outstanding on the working capital line of credit was $4.1 million and the amount outstanding on the term loans was $6.8 million. We did not have an outstanding balance on the loan commitment. As of March 31, 2006, we had $5.1 million available under the line of credit, net of a $134,000 outstanding letter of credit issued to our landlord.
As of March 31, 2006, in accordance with our lease agreement, we reduced our outstanding letter of credit issued to our landlord to $134,000.
On July 7, 2005, we purchased 12 option contracts designated and effective as cash flow hedges to protect against the foreign currency exchange risk inherent in a portion of our forecasted transactions denominated in Euros. The 12 options expire monthly beginning January 2006 and ending December 2006. The option contracts had a notional amount of $7.0 million, a weighted average strike price of $1.16, and a purchase price of $152,000. The risk of loss associated with the options is limited to the purchase price paid for the option contracts. As of March 31, 2006, three of the options had expired.
On October 5, 2005, we purchased an option contract to protect against the foreign currency translation risk inherent in our Euro denominated working capital components. The option contract, which expires on June 30, 2006, had a notional amount of $1.2 million, a strike price of $1.19, and a purchase price of $29,000. The risk of loss associated with the option is limited to the purchase price paid for the option contract.
There are no other derivative financial instruments at March 31, 2006.
As of March 31, 2006, we had $1.6 million in cash and cash equivalents. We plan on funding our current working capital needs, capital expenditures and debt payments using available cash, cash flow from operations and our credit facility.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
We do not have any off-balance sheet debt nor do we have any transactions, arrangements, obligations (including contingent obligations) or other relationships with any unconsolidated entities or other persons that may have a material current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures, capital resources, or significant components of revenue or expenses.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
Recent accounting pronouncements are discussed under Item 7 of our 2005 Annual Report. As of March 31, 2006, other than the pronouncements discussed in our 2005 Annual Report, we are not aware of any other pronouncements that materially affect our financial position or results of operations.

ITEM 3. | QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK |
We are exposed to market risk, which is the potential loss arising from adverse changes in market rates and prices, such as foreign currency exchange and interest rates. We generally do not enter into derivatives or other financial instruments for trading or speculative purposes. We may, however, enter into financial instruments to try to manage and reduce the impact of changes in foreign currency exchange rates. We cannot predict with any certainty our future exposure to fluctuations in foreign currency exchange and interest rates or other market risks or the impact, if any, such fluctuations may have on our future business, product pricing, consolidated financial condition, results of operations or cash flows. The actual impact of any fluctuations in foreign currency exchange or interest rates may differ significantly from those discussed below.
Interest Rates
At March 31, 2006, we had fixed rate debt of $540,000 and variable rate debt of approximately $10.4 million. The interest rates on our variable rate debt range from LIBOR plus 1.75% to LIBOR plus 2.25%. As of March 31, 2006, the weighted average effective interest rate on our variable rate debt was 6.52%. An immediate one hundred basis point (1.0%) increase in the interest rate on our variable rate debt, holding other variables constant, would have increased our interest expense by $41,000 for the nine months ended March 31, 2006. Interest rates have been at or near historic lows in recent years but have been increasing during the past year. There can be no guarantee that interest rates will not rise further. Any increase in interest rates may adversely affect our results of operations and financial condition.
Foreign Currencies
To the extent our business continues to expand outside the United States, an increasing share of our net sales and cost of sales may be transacted in currencies other than the United States dollar. Accounting practices require that our non-United States dollar-denominated transactions be converted to United States dollars for reporting purposes. Consequently, our reported net earnings may be significantly affected by fluctuations in currency exchange rates. When the United States dollar strengthens against currencies in which products are sold or weakens against currencies in which we incur costs, net sales and costs could be adversely affected.
Our main exchange rate exposures are with the Swiss Franc and the Euro against the United States dollar. This is due to NAIEs operations in Switzerland and the payment in Euros by our largest customer for finished goods. Additionally, we pay our NAIE employees and other expenses in Swiss Francs. We may enter into forward exchange contracts, foreign currency borrowings and option contracts to hedge our foreign currency risk. Our goal in seeking to manage foreign currency risk is to provide reasonable certainty to the functional currency value of foreign currency cash flows and to help stabilize the value of non-United States dollar-denominated earnings.
On July 7, 2005, we purchased 12 option contracts designated and effective as cash flow hedges to protect against the foreign currency exchange risk inherent in a portion of our forecasted transactions denominated in Euros. The 12 options expire monthly beginning January 2006 and ending December 2006. The option contracts had a notional amount of $7.0 million, a weighted average strike price of $1.16, and a purchase price of $152,000. The risk of loss associated with the options is limited to the purchase price paid for the option contracts. As of March 31, 2006, three of the options had expired.
On October 5, 2005, we purchased an option contract to protect against the foreign currency translation risk inherent in our Euro denominated working capital components. The option contract, which expires on June 30, 2006, had a notional amount of $1.2 million, a strike price of $1.19, and a purchase price of $29,000. The risk of loss associated with the option is limited to the purchase price paid for the option contract.
On March 31, 2006, the Swiss Franc closed at 1.30 to 1.00 United States dollar and the Euro closed at 0.83 to 1.00 United States dollar. A 10% adverse change to the exchange rates between the Swiss Franc and the Euro against the United States dollar, holding other variables constant, would have decreased our net income for the nine months ended March 31, 2006 by $197,000.

ITEM 4. | CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES |
We maintain certain disclosure controls and procedures. They are designed to help ensure that material information is: (1) gathered and communicated to our management, including our principal executive and financial officers, on a timely basis; and (2) recorded, processed, summarized, reported and filed with the SEC as required under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.
Our management, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of March 31, 2006. Based on such evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective for their intended purpose described above. There were no changes to our internal controls during the quarterly period ended March 31, 2006 that have materially affected, or that are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal controls.
PART II - OTHER INFORMATION
ITEM 1. | LEGAL PROCEEDINGS |
From time to time, we become involved in various investigations, claims and legal proceedings that arise in the ordinary course of our business. These matters may relate to product liability, employment, intellectual property, tax, regulation, contract or other matters. The resolution of these matters as they arise will be subject to various uncertainties and, even if such claims are without merit, could result in the expenditure of significant financial and managerial resources. While unfavorable outcomes are possible, based on available information, we generally do not believe the resolution of these matters, including that discussed below, will result in a material adverse effect on our business, consolidated financial condition, or results of operation. However, a settlement payment or unfavorable outcome could adversely impact our results of operation. Our evaluation of the likely impact of these actions, including that discussed below, could change in the future and we could have unfavorable outcomes that we do not expect.
On February 10, 2005, a complaint was filed against NAI on behalf of Novogen Research Pty. Ltd. in the United States District Court, Southern District of New York alleging a cause of action for patent infringement of a Novogen patent by products manufactured by NAI. Novogen had originally agreed to settle the matter for a one-time payment by NAI of $75,000. However, final settlement terms were not formally agreed to and Novogen has since increased its settlement demand to $125,000. Terms of a settlement continue to be negotiated and there can be no assurance that this matter will be resolved in an out-of-court settlement.
As of May 9, 2006, other than as set forth above, neither NAI nor its subsidiaries were a party to any material pending legal proceeding nor was any of their property the subject of any material pending legal proceeding.
ITEM 1A. | RISK FACTORS |
On December 5, 2005, we acquired RHL and may, in the future, pursue acquisitions of other companies that, if not successful, could adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.
On December 5, 2005, we completed our acquisition of RHL, an integrated direct marketer of nutritional supplements and other lifestyle products. RHLs business is subject to all of the operational risks that normally arise for a direct marketing company, including those related to competition, profitability, economic conditions, suppliers, customers, adverse publicity, product liability claims and other litigation, regulation, personnel, and intellectual property rights.
In the future, we may pursue additional acquisitions of other companies as part of our strategy focused on long-term growth and diversification of net sales and our customer base. Acquisitions, including the RHL acquisition, involve numerous risks, including:
| potential difficulties related to integrating the products, personnel and operations of the acquired company; |
| failure to operate as a combined organization utilizing common information and communication systems, operating procedures, financial controls and human resources practices; |
| diverting managements attention from the normal daily operations of the business; |
| entering markets in which we have no or limited prior direct experience and where competitors in such markets have stronger market positions; |
21
Table of Contents
| potential loss of key employees of the acquired company; |
| potential inability to achieve cost savings and other potential benefits expected from the acquisition; |
| an uncertain sales and earnings stream from the acquired company; and |
| potential impairment charges, which may be significant, against goodwill and purchased intangible assets acquired in the acquisition due to changes in conditions and circumstances that occur after the acquisition, many of which may be outside of our control. |
There can be no assurance that our acquisition of RHL or other acquisitions that we may pursue will be successful. If we pursue an acquisition but are not successful in completing it, or if we complete an acquisition but are not successful in integrating the acquired companys employees, products or operations successfully, our business, financial position or results of operations could be adversely affected.
In addition to the risk factor above, you should carefully consider the other risks described under Item 7 of our 2005 Annual Report, as well as the other information in our 2005 Annual Report, this report and other reports and documents we file with the SEC, when evaluating our business and future prospects. If any of the identified risks actually occur, our business, financial condition and results of operations could be seriously harmed. In that event, the market price of our common stock could decline and you could lose all or a portion of the value of your investment in our common stock.
