NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(UNAUDITED)

A. Basis of Presentation and Summary of 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 management’s 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 six months ended December 31, 2010 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, 2010 (“2010 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 2010 Annual Report unless otherwise noted below.

Net Income per Common Share

We compute net 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):


	Three Months Ended December 31,				Six Months Ended December 31,

Dilutive effect of stock options		10		26		11		34

Diluted weighted average common shares outstanding		7,120		7,097		7,121		7,104

Basic net income per common share	$	0.12	$	0.10	$	0.25	$	0.28

Diluted net income per common share	$	0.12	$	0.10	$	0.25	$	0.28

Shares related to stock options representing the right to acquire 616,750 shares of common stock for the three months ended December 31, 2010, and 545,875 shares for the six months ended December 31, 2010, were excluded from the calculation of diluted net income per common share, as the effect of their inclusion would have been anti-dilutive.

Shares related to stock options representing the right to acquire 415,354 shares of common stock for the three months ended December 31, 2009, and 487,815 shares for the six months ended December 31, 2009, were excluded from the calculation of diluted net income per common share, as the effect of their inclusion would have been anti-dilutive.

Revenue Recognition

To recognize revenue four basic criteria must be met: 1) there is evidence that an arrangement exists; 2) delivery has occurred; 3) the fee is fixed or determinable; and 4) collectability is reasonably assured. Revenue from sales transactions where the buyer has the right to return the product is recognized at the time of sale only if (1) the seller’s 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 buyer’s 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. We recognize revenue 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 shipment. Revenue from shipments where title passes upon delivery is deferred until the shipment has been delivered.

We record reductions to gross revenue for estimated returns of private label contract manufacturing products and branded products. The estimated returns are based on the trailing six months of private label contract manufacturing gross sales and our historical experience for both private label contract manufacturing and branded product returns. However, the estimate for product returns does not reflect the impact of a large product recall resulting from product nonconformance or other factors as such events are not predictable nor is the related economic impact estimable.

We currently have rights to certain U.S. patents, and each patent’s corresponding foreign patent applications. All of these patents and patent rights relate to the ingredient known as beta-alanine marketed and sold under the CarnoSyn^® trade name. We have sold this ingredient to a customer for use in a limited market, and in March 2009 entered into an agreement with Compound Solutions, Inc. (CSI) under which we agreed to grant a license of certain of our patent rights to customers of CSI who purchase beta-alanine from CSI. We receive a fee from CSI that varies based on the amount of net sales of beta-alanine sold by CSI less CSI’s costs and other agreed upon expenses. We recorded royalty income as a component of revenue in the amount of $301,000 during the three months ended December 31, 2010 and $166,000 during the three months ended December 31, 2009. We recorded royalty income as a component of revenue in the amount of $617,000 during the six months ended December 31, 2010 and $463,000 during the six months ended December 31, 2009. These royalty income amounts are offset by royalty expense paid to the original patent holders. We recognized royalty expense as a component of cost of goods sold in the amount of $48,000 during the three months ended December 31, 2010 and $30,000 during the three months ended December 31, 2009. We recognized royalty expense as a component of cost of goods sold in the amount of $107,000 during the six months ended December 31, 2010 and $81,000 during the six months ended December 31, 2009.

Stock-Based Compensation

We have an omnibus incentive plan that was approved by our Board of Directors effective as of October 15, 2009 and approved by our stockholders at the Annual Meeting of Stockholders held on November 30, 2009. Under the plan, we may grant nonqualified and incentive stock options and other stock-based awards to employees, non-employee directors and consultants. Our prior equity incentive plan was terminated effective as of November 30, 2009. We also had an employee stock purchase plan that was terminated effective as of June 30, 2009.

We estimate the fair value of stock option awards at the date of grant 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. Black-Scholes uses assumptions related to volatility, the risk-free interest rate, the dividend yield (which we assume to be zero, as we have not paid any cash dividends) and employee exercise behavior. Expected volatilities used in the model are based mainly on the historical volatility of our stock price. The risk-free interest rate is derived from the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect in the period of grant. The expected life of stock option grants is derived from historical experience.

Our net income included stock based compensation expense of approximately $48,000 for the three months ended December 31, 2010 and approximately $110,000 for the six months ended December 31, 2010. Our net income included stock based compensation expense of approximately $69,000 for the three months ended December 31, 2009 and approximately $112,000 for the six months ended December 31, 2009.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

Fair value is defined as the exchange price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability (i.e., the “exit price”) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. We use a three-level hierarchy for inputs used in measuring fair value that maximizes the use of observable inputs and minimizes the use of unobservable inputs by requiring that observable inputs be used when available. Observable inputs are inputs that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability based on market data obtained from independent sources. Unobservable inputs are inputs that reflect our assumptions about the inputs that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability and are developed based on the best information available under the circumstances.

The fair value hierarchy is broken down into three levels based on the source of inputs. In general, fair values determined by Level 1 inputs use quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the Company has the ability to access. We classify cash, cash equivalents, and marketable securities balances as Level 1 assets. Fair values determined by Level 2 inputs are based on quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active and models for which all significant inputs are observable or can be corroborated, either directly or indirectly by observable market data. Level 3 inputs are unobservable inputs for the asset or liability, and include situations where there is little, if any, market activity for the asset or liability. These include certain pricing models, discounted cash flow methodologies and similar techniques that use significant unobservable inputs.

Our financial statements include the following Level 1 financial instruments: cash equivalents, accounts receivable, short-term investments, accounts payable, and accrued expenses. We believe the carrying amounts of these assets and liabilities in the financial statements approximate the fair values of these financial instruments at December 31, 2010 and June 30, 2010. We classify derivative forward exchange contracts as Level 2 assets. The fair value of our forward exchange contracts as of December 31, 2010 was $234,000. We did not have any forward exchange contracts as of June 30, 2010. As of December 31, 2010 and June 30, 2010, we did not have any financial assets or liabilities classified as Level 3.

B. Discontinued Operations

In an effort to enhance stockholder value, improve working capital and enable us to focus on our core contract manufacturing business, during the fourth quarter of fiscal 2008 we undertook a careful review of our branded products portfolio and operations. As a result, we decided to narrow our branded products focus and portfolio and developed a plan to do so, which included a decision to sell the legacy business of Real Health Laboratories, Inc. (RHL).

On July 29, 2009, we entered into an Asset Purchase Agreement with PharmaCare US Inc. and PharmaCare Laboratories Pty Ltd. for the sale of substantially all of the remaining assets of RHL related to its wholesale and direct-to-consumer business. The sale closed on July 31, 2009 for a cash purchase price of $500,000. NAI provided a guarantee of RHL’s indemnity obligations under the Asset Purchase Agreement, which potential liability is capped at the amount of the purchase price paid by the buyers to RHL. We recorded a loss of $6,000 as a result of this sale during the first quarter of fiscal 2010. Following the sale of substantially all of the assets of RHL, we changed the name of RHL to Disposition Company, Inc.

As part of the original Asset Purchase Agreement, we had the potential to receive up to an additional $500,000 from the buyers as a conditional earn-out if the RHL business acquired by the buyers met or exceeded certain budgeted profitability criteria during the period August 1, 2009 through July 31, 2010. Effective as of February 12, 2010, based on the loss of one or more customers, the results of operation of the RHL business since the closing date of the sale, the anticipated results of operation of the RHL business through July 31, 2010, and the corresponding anticipated reduction in and/or elimination of the conditional earn-out amount, and in an effort to avoid the time and expense associated with the procedures required in connection with the earn-out, including, without limitation, the time and expense associated with the preparation of the required reports and a review of the books and records of PharmaCare US and PharmaCare Australia, we amended the Asset Purchase Agreement to eliminate the potential earn-out compensation.

As the plan to dispose of the legacy RHL business met the criteria of accounting for the impairment or disposal of long-lived assets, the current and prior periods presented in this report have been classified to reflect the legacy RHL business as discontinued operations.

As a result of our decision to sell the legacy RHL business, we executed and substantially completed an operational consolidation program during the first quarter of fiscal 2009 that transitioned the remaining branded products business operations to our corporate offices. The program resulted in a charge to discontinued operations for severance and other business related exit costs during the year ended June 30, 2009. There was no balance or activity related to restructuring programs during the six months ended December 31, 2010. The following table presents the activity and the reserve balances related to these restructuring programs for the six months ended December 31, 2009 (in thousands):

E. Debt

On December 16, 2010, we executed a new Credit Agreement (“Credit Agreement”) with Wells Fargo Bank, National Association. This Credit Agreement replaced our previous credit facility and provides us with a line of credit of up to $5.0 million. The line of credit may be used to finance working capital requirements. In consideration for granting the line of credit, we paid a commitment fee of $12,500 and must pay an additional commitment fee of $12,500 on or before December 1, 2011. There are no amounts currently drawn under the line of credit.

Under the terms of the Credit Agreement, borrowings are subject to eligibility requirements including maintaining (i) net income after taxes of not less than $750,000 on a trailing four quarter basis as of the end of each calendar quarter beginning with the four quarter period ended December 31, 2010; and (ii) a ratio of total liabilities to tangible net worth of not greater than 1.25 to 1.0 at any time. Any amounts outstanding under the line of credit will bear interest at a fixed or fluctuating interest rate as elected by NAI from time to time; provided, however, that if the outstanding principal amount is less than $100,000 such amount shall bear interest at the then applicable fluctuating rate of interest. If elected, the fluctuating rate per annum would be equal to 2.75% above the daily one month LIBOR rate as in effect from time to time. If a fixed rate is elected, it would equal a per annum rate of 2.50% above the LIBOR rate in effect on the first day of the applicable fixed rate term. Any amounts outstanding under the line of credit must be paid in full on or before November 1, 2012; provided, however, that we must maintain a zero balance on advances under the line of credit for a period of at least 30 consecutive days during each fiscal year. Amounts outstanding that are subject to a fluctuating interest rate may be prepaid at any time without penalty. Amounts outstanding that are subject to a fixed interest rate may be prepaid at any time in minimum amounts of $100,000, subject to a prepayment fee equal to the sum of the discounted monthly differences for each month from the month of prepayment through the month in which the then applicable fixed rate term matures.

Our obligations under the Credit Agreement are secured by our accounts receivable and other rights to payment, general intangibles, inventory, equipment and fixtures. We also have a foreign exchange facility with Wells Fargo in effect until November 1, 2012.

On December 31, 2010, we were in compliance with all of the financial and other covenants required under our credit facility.

On September 22, 2006, NAIE, our wholly owned subsidiary, entered into a credit facility to provide it with a credit line of up to CHF 1.3 million, or approximately $1.4 million, which was the initial maximum aggregate amount that could be outstanding at any one time under the credit facility. This maximum amount is reduced annually by CHF 160,000, or approximately $170,000. On February 19, 2007, NAIE amended its credit facility to provide that the maximum aggregate amount that may be outstanding under the facility cannot be reduced below CHF 500,000, or approximately $532,000. As of December 31, 2010, there was no outstanding balance under this credit facility.

Under its credit facility, NAIE may draw amounts either as current account loan credits to its current or future bank accounts or as fixed loans with a maximum term of 24 months. Current account loans will bear interest at the rate of 5% per annum. Fixed loans will bear interest at a rate determined by the parties based on current market conditions and must be repaid pursuant to a repayment schedule established by the parties at the time of the loan. If a fixed loan is repaid early at NAIE’s election or in connection with the termination of the credit facility, NAIE will be charged a pre-payment penalty equal to 0.1% of the principal amount of the fixed loan or CHF 1,000 (approximately $1,063), whichever is greater. The bank reserves the right to refuse individual requests for an advance under the credit facility, although its exercise of such right will not have the effect of terminating the credit facility as a whole.

We did not use our working capital line of credit nor did we have any long-term debt outstanding during the six months ended December 31, 2010. The composite interest rate on all of our debt outstanding during the six months ended December 31, 2009 was 13.69%.

F. 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, we adopted an amendment to freeze benefit accruals to the participants. 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.

The components included in the net periodic expense for the periods ended December 31 were as follows (in thousands):

H. Segment Information

Our business consists of two segments, identified as private label contract manufacturing, which primarily provides private label contract manufacturing services to companies that market and distribute nutritional supplements and other health care products and includes royalty income from our CSI license agreement associated with the sale of beta-alanine under our CarnosSyn^® trade name, and branded products, which markets and distributes branded nutritional supplements. Following the completion of the sale of substantially all of the assets of RHL, our branded products segment consists primarily of the products sold under our Pathway to Healing^® product line.

We evaluate performance based on a number of factors. The primary performance measures for each segment are net sales and income or loss from operations before corporate allocations. Operating income or loss for each segment does not include corporate general and administrative expenses, interest expense and other miscellaneous income and expense items. Corporate general and administrative expenses include, but are not limited to: human resources, legal, finance, information technology, and other corporate level related expenses, which are not allocated to either segment. The accounting policies of our segments are the same as those described in Note A above and in the consolidated financial statements included in our 2010 Annual Report.

I. Income Taxes

The effective tax rate for the three months ended December 31, 2010 was 20.0% and the effective tax rate for the six months ended December 31, 2010 was 13.9%. The rate differs from the U.S. federal statutory rate of 35% primarily due to the favorable impact from the reversal of the valuation allowance related to the realization of the deferred tax asset for the federal net operating loss and the favorable impact of foreign earnings taxed at less than the U.S. statutory rate.

To determine our quarterly provision for income taxes, we use an estimated annual effective tax rate, which is based on expected annual income, statutory tax rates and tax planning opportunities available in the various jurisdictions to which the Company is subject. Certain significant or unusual items are separately recognized in the quarter in which they occur and can be a source of variability in the effective tax rate from quarter to quarter. We recognize interest and penalties related to uncertain tax positions, if any, as an income tax expense.

Income taxes are accounted for under the asset and liability method. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences of temporary differences between the financial reporting basis and tax basis of our assets and liabilities. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date.

We are subject to taxation in the U.S., Switzerland and various state jurisdictions. Our tax years for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2006 and forward are subject to examination by the United States and state tax authorities and our tax years for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2007 and forward are subject to examination by the Switzerland tax authorities.

We do not record U.S. income tax expense for NAIE’s retained earnings that are declared as indefinitely reinvested offshore, thus reducing our overall income tax expense. The amount of earnings designated as indefinitely reinvested in NAIE is based on the actual deployment of such earnings in NAIE’s assets and our expectations of the future cash needs of our U.S. and foreign entities. Income tax laws are also a factor in determining the amount of foreign earnings to be indefinitely reinvested offshore.

It is our policy to establish reserves based on management’s assessment of exposure for certain positions taken in previously filed tax returns that may become payable upon audit by tax authorities. The tax reserves are analyzed at least annually, generally in the fourth quarter of each year, and adjustments are made as events occur that warrant adjustments to the reserve.

J. Derivatives and Hedging

We are exposed to gains and losses resulting from fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates relating to forecasted product sales denominated in foreign currencies and transactions of NAIE, our foreign subsidiary. As part of our overall strategy to manage the level of exposure to the risk of fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates, we may use foreign exchange contracts in the form of forward contracts.

During the three and six months ended December 31, 2010 we entered into forward contracts designated as cash flow hedges primarily to protect against the foreign exchange risks inherent in our forecasted sales of products at prices denominated in currencies other than the U.S. Dollar. These contracts are expected to be settled through July 2011. For derivative instruments that are designated and qualify as cash flow hedges, we record the effective portion of the gain or loss on the derivative in accumulated other comprehensive income (“OCI”) as a separate component of stockholders’ equity and subsequently reclassify these amounts into earnings in the period during which the hedged transaction is recognized in earnings.

For foreign currency contracts designated as cash flow hedges, hedge effectiveness is measured using the spot rate. Changes in the spot-forward differential are excluded from the test of hedge effectiveness and are recorded currently in earnings as interest expense. We measure effectiveness by comparing the cumulative change in the hedge contract with the cumulative change in the hedged item. During the three and six months ended December 31, 2010, we did not have any material losses or gains related to the ineffective portion of our hedging instruments in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income. No hedging relationships were terminated as a result of ineffective hedging or forecasted transactions no longer probable of occurring for foreign currency forward contracts. We monitor the probability of forecasted transactions as part of the hedge effectiveness testing on a quarterly basis.

As of December 31, 2010, the notional amounts of our foreign exchange contracts designated as cash flow hedges were approximately $6.2 million (EUR 4.5 million). As of December 31, 2010, a net gain of approximately $212,000 related to derivative instruments designated as cash flow hedges was recorded in OCI. It is expected that $212,000 will be reclassified into earnings in the next 12 months along with the earnings effects of the related forecasted transactions.

As of December 31, 2010, the fair value of our cash flow hedges was $234,000 and was classified in prepaids and other current assets in our Consolidated Balance Sheets. During the three and six months ended December 31, 2010, we recognized $266,000 of gains in OCI and reclassified $54,000 of gains from OCI to revenue. We did not have any hedging activity during the three and six months ended December 31, 2009.

K. 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 intellectual property, product liability, employment, 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 will result in a material adverse effect on our business, consolidated financial condition, or results of operations. However, a settlement payment or unfavorable outcome could adversely impact our results of operations. Our evaluation of the likely impact of these actions could change in the future and we could have unfavorable outcomes that we do not expect.

As of February 10, 2011, except as described below, 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. On November 11, 2009, NAI filed a lawsuit in the U.S. District Court for the District of Delaware, accusing Vital Pharmaceutical, Inc. and DNP International Co., Inc. of infringing certain patents owned by NAI relating to the ingredient known as beta-alanine marketed and sold under the CarnoSyn^® trade name. NAI asserted claims for unfair competition and false marking, among others, against one or both of the companies named in this lawsuit and is seeking an injunction against continued infringement and violations and damages for past infringement and violations including, among others, punitive damages and attorneys’ fees. During the six months ended December 31, 2010, NAI incurred litigation expenses relating to this lawsuit of approximately $282,000. Unless otherwise settled, NAI expects its litigation expenses related to this lawsuit during the remainder of fiscal 2011 to increase. Although we believe this litigation is supported by valid claims, there is no assurance NAI will prevail in these litigation proceedings or in similar proceedings it may initiate or that litigation expenses will be as anticipated.

On July 31, 2009, RHL sold substantially all of its remaining assets related to its wholesale and direct-to-consumer business to PharmaCare US Inc. and PharmaCare Laboratories Pty Ltd. for a cash purchase price of $500,000. NAI provided a guarantee of RHL’s indemnity obligations under the asset purchase agreement, which potential liability is capped at the amount of the purchase price paid by the buyers to RHL. The guaranty continues for a minimum period of three years from the date of the Asset Purchase Agreement.

ITEM 2.

MANAGEMENT’S 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 six months ended December 31, 2010. 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 risk factors and other information included in our 2010 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 based on a variety of factors.

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 providing private label contract manufacturing services to companies that market and distribute vitamins, minerals, herbs and other nutritional supplements, as well as other health care products, to consumers both within and outside the United States. Historically, our revenue has been largely dependent on sales to one or two private label contract manufacturing customers and subject to variations in the timing of such customers’ orders, which in turn is impacted by such customers’ internal marketing programs, supply chain management, entry into new markets, and new product introductions, the demand for such customers’ products and general industry and economic conditions.

A cornerstone of our business strategy is to achieve long-term growth and profitability and to diversify our sales base. We have sought and expect to continue to seek to diversify our sales by developing relationships with additional, quality-oriented, private label contract manufacturing customers, developing and growing our own line of branded products and commercializing our patent estate through contract manufacturing, royalty and license agreements.

During the first six months of fiscal 2011, our net sales from continuing operations were 17.8% lower than in the first six months of fiscal 2010. Private label contract manufacturing sales declined 17.8% due primarily to lower volumes of existing products in existing markets sold to our two largest customers. This decline was partially offset by new product sales to existing customers and sales to three new customers. Our revenue concentration risk for our two largest customers decreased to 73% as a percentage of our total sales from continuing operations for the first six months of fiscal 2011 compared to 84% in the first six months of fiscal 2010. We expect our contract manufacturing revenue concentration percentage for our two largest customers to remain relatively consistent for the remainder of fiscal 2011.

Net sales from our branded products declined 17.5% in the first six months of fiscal 2011 as compared to the first six months of fiscal 2010 due to the continued softening of our Pathway to Healing^® product line. During the first six months of fiscal 2011, we began the process of re-launching a portion of our Pathway to Healing^® product line and intend to further increase our marketing and advertising efforts for this product line during the remainder of fiscal 2011 in an effort to expand our future sales opportunities.

On November 11, 2009, NAI filed a lawsuit in the U.S. District Court for the District of Delaware, accusing Vital Pharmaceutical, Inc. and DNP International Co., Inc. of infringing certain patents owned by NAI relating to the ingredient known as beta-alanine marketed and sold under the CarnoSyn^® trade name. NAI asserted claims for unfair competition and false marking, among others, against one or both of the companies named in this lawsuit and is seeking an injunction against continued infringement and violations and damages for past infringement and violations including, among others, punitive damages and attorneys’ fees. During the six months ended December 31, 2010, NAI incurred litigation expenses relating to this lawsuit of approximately $282,000. Unless otherwise settled, NAI expects its litigation expenses related to this lawsuit during the remainder of fiscal 2011 to increase to approximately $300,000 per quarter. Although we believe this litigation is supported by valid claims, there is no assurance NAI will prevail in these litigation proceedings or in similar proceedings it may initiate or that litigation expenses will be as anticipated.

During the remainder of fiscal 2011, we plan to continue to focus on:

•

Leveraging our state of the art, certified facilities to increase the value of the goods and services we provide to our highly valued private label contract manufacturing customers, and assist us in developing relationships with additional quality oriented customers;

•

Implementing focused initiatives to grow our Pathway to Healing^® product line;

•

Commercializing our patent estate through contract manufacturing, royalties and license agreements and protecting our proprietary rights; and

•

Improving operational efficiencies and managing costs and business risks to improve profitability.

Looking forward, as a result of continued uncertain near-term economic conditions and anticipated reduced sales volumes combined with lower pricing programs from our largest customers, we expect net sales and net operating income from continuing operations during the third quarter of fiscal 2011 to be lower than the comparable prior year period. Our results could be further negatively affected by unfavorable foreign currency exchange activity associated with a decline in the Euro and greater than expected litigation expenses associated with our patent infringement litigation.

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 2010 Annual Report. There have been no significant changes to these policies during the six months ended December 31, 2010.

1	Net sales to Mannatech, Incorporated decreased primarily as a result of lower volumes of established products in existing markets.

The decrease in net sales to NSA International, Inc. (NSA) for the three months ended December 31, 2010 included a decrease in international sales of 12.9% and an increase in domestic sales of 2.8%. The decrease in net sales to NSA International, Inc. for the six months ended December 31, 2010 included a decrease in international sales of 10.4% and a decline in domestic sales of 11.3%. These sales declines were due to lower demand by NSA’s consumers, lower average sales prices, and NSA’s inventory management program.

3	The increase in net sales to other customers was primarily due to sales of new products for new and existing customers, and increased royalty income related to the distribution of beta-alanine.

Net sales from our branded products segment decreased 19% during the second quarter of fiscal 2011 as compared to the comparable quarter in fiscal 2010 and 18% during the six months ended December 31, 2010 compared to the comparable six month period last year due primarily to the continuing impact of the cessation of the Dr. Cherry weekly television program in April 2007, which had served as the primary acquisition vehicle in marketing the Pathway to Healing^® product line.

Gross profit margin increased 5.0 percentage points during the second quarter of fiscal 2011 from the comparable quarter in fiscal 2010 and 3.3 percentage points during the six months ended December 31, 2010 from the comparable six month period last year. The change in gross profit margin was primarily due to the following for the periods ended December 31, 2010:


	Three Months Ended			Six Months Ended
Branded products operations		0.4	%		0.4	%
Contract manufacturing:
Shift in sales and material mix		3.2			4.2
Reduced (incremental) overhead expenses		0.4			(0.7	)
Reduced (incremental) direct and indirect labor		1.0			(0.6	)

Total		5.0	%		3.3	%

Selling, general and administrative expenses from continuing operations remained consistent during the three and six month periods ended December 31, 2010 compared to the comparable three and six month periods ended December 31, 2009. Litigation expenses increased to $282,000 for the six months ended December 31, 2010 as compared to $43,000 for the comparable period in the prior year. The increase in litigation expenses was associated with our patent infringement litigation described above.

Other expense, net increased $18,000 during the second quarter of fiscal 2011 from the comparable quarter last year primarily due to reduced other income and larger foreign currency exchange losses associated with changes in the Euro and the related impact on the translation of Euro denominated cash and receivables, partially offset by reduced interest expense. Other expense, net decreased $19,000 during the six month period ended December 31, 2010 from the comparable six month period last year due primarily to reduced interest expense and larger foreign currency exchange gains associated with changes in the Euro and the related impact on the translation of Euro denominated cash and receivables, partially offset by reduced other income.

During the second quarter of fiscal 2011, our income tax expense from continuing operations increased $120,000, or 127.7%, from the comparable quarter last year primarily due to U.S.-based state tax expense recorded on increased U.S.-based pre-tax income. No net federal tax expense was recognized in the quarter ended December 31, 2010 for our U.S.-based income from operations as it was offset by a release of our net deferred tax asset valuation allowance.

Our income tax expense from continuing operations increased $19,000, or 7.1%, during the first six months of fiscal 2011 as compared to the same period in the prior fiscal year primarily due to a higher estimated effective tax rate. As a result, the tax expense from continuing operations for the first six months of fiscal 2011 included expense from our foreign subsidiary at a statutory tax rate of 20% and state tax expense from our U.S.-based income from operations. No net federal tax expense was recognized during the first six months of fiscal 2011 for our U.S.-based income from operations as it was offset by a release of our net deferred tax asset valuation allowance.

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 provided by operating activities was $3.2 million for the six months ended December 31, 2010 compared to $2.2 million in the comparable period in the prior year.

At December 31, 2010, changes in accounts receivable, consisting primarily of amounts due from our private label contract manufacturing customers, provided $612,000 in cash during the six months ended December 31, 2010 compared to providing $90,000 in the comparable period in the prior year. The increase in cash provided by accounts receivable during the six months ended December 31, 2010 was the result of decreased days sales outstanding and the timing of accounts receivable collections as compared to the comparable prior year period. Days sales outstanding was 28 days as of December 31, 2010 compared to 30 days as of December 31, 2009.

Approximately $688,000 of our operating cash flow was generated by NAIE in the six months ended December 31, 2010. As of December 31, 2010, NAIE’s undistributed retained earnings were considered indefinitely reinvested.

Capital expenditures were $1.1 million during the six months ended December 31, 2010 compared to $1.6 million in the comparable period in the prior year. Capital expenditures during the six months ended December 31, 2010 and December 31, 2009 were primarily for manufacturing equipment in our Vista, California and Manno, Switzerland facilities. Additionally, during the six months ended December 31, 2009, we received $500,000 in proceeds related to the sale of the remaining assets of the legacy RHL business.

We did not have any consolidated debt as of either December 31, 2010 or June 30, 2010.

On December 31, 2010, we were in compliance with all of the financial and other covenants required under our credit facility.

an advance under the credit facility, although its exercise of such right will not have the effect of terminating the credit facility as a whole.

As of December 31, 2010, we had $10.7 million in cash and cash equivalents and $5.0 million available under our working capital line of credit. We believe our available cash, cash equivalents and potential cash flows from operations will be sufficient to fund our current working capital needs, capital expenditures and debt payments through at least the next 12 months.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

As of December 31, 2010, we did not have any off-balance sheet debt nor did we have any transactions, arrangements, obligations (including contingent obligations) or other relationships with any unconsolidated entities or other persons that have or are reasonably likely to 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 material to investors.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

Recent accounting pronouncements are discussed in the notes to our consolidated financial statements included under Item 8 of our 2010 Annual Report. Other than the pronouncements discussed in our 2010 Annual Report, we are not aware of any other pronouncements that materially affect our financial position or results of operations.

ITEM 4.

CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

We maintain certain disclosure controls and procedures as defined under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. They are designed to help ensure that material information is: (1) gathered and communicated to our management, including our principal executive and financial officers, in a manner that allows for timely decisions regarding required disclosures; and (2) recorded, processed, summarized, reported and filed with the SEC as required under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and within the time periods specified by the SEC. Our management, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of December 31, 2010. 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 as of December 31, 2010.

There were no changes to our internal control over financial reporting during the quarterly period ended December 31, 2010 that have materially affected, or that are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II – OTHER INFORMATION

ITEM 1.

LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

As of February 10, 2011, except as described below, 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. On November 11, 2009, NAI filed a lawsuit in the U.S. District Court for the District of Delaware, accusing Vital Pharmaceutical, Inc. and DNP International Co., Inc. of infringing certain patents owned by NAI relating to the ingredient known as beta-alanine marketed and sold under the CarnoSyn^® trade name. NAI asserted claims for unfair competition and false marking, among others, against one or both of the companies named in this lawsuit and is seeking an injunction against continued infringement and violations and damages for past infringement and violations including, among others, punitive damages and attorneys’ fees. During the six months ended December 31, 2010, NAI incurred litigation expenses relating to this lawsuit of approximately $282,000. Unless otherwise settled, NAI expects its litigation expenses related to this lawsuit during the remainder of fiscal 2011 to increase to approximately $300,000 per quarter. Although we believe this litigation is supported by valid claims, there is no assurance NAI will prevail in these litigation proceedings or in similar proceedings it may initiate or that litigation expenses will be as anticipated.

ITEM 1A.

RISK FACTORS

You should carefully consider the risks described under Item 1A of our 2010 Annual Report, as well as the other information in our 2010 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.
