1. ORGANIZATION AND DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS

Central European Distribution Corporation (“CEDC”), a Delaware corporation, and its subsidiaries (collectively referred to as “we,” “us,” “our,” or the “Company”) operate primarily in the alcohol beverage industry. The Company is Central Europe’s largest integrated spirit beverages business. The Company is the largest vodka producer by value and volume in Poland and produces the Absolwent, Zubrowka, Bols and Soplica brands, among others. The Company currently exports its products to many markets around the world. In addition, it produces and distributes Royal Vodka, the number one selling vodka in Hungary. The Company is the leading distributor and the leading importer of spirits, wine and beer in Poland and Hungary. In March 2008, the Company continued its expansion plans in the region by purchasing an 85% stake in Copecresto Enterprises Limited, which owns the leading premium vodka brand in Russia, Parliament Vodka. In May 2008, the Company also acquired a 75% economic stake in the Whitehall Group of companies in Russia, which is one of the leading importers of premium wines and spirits in Russia.

2. BASIS OF PRESENTATION

Our consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. Our Company consolidates all entities that we control by ownership of a majority voting interest. All inter-company accounts and transactions have been eliminated in the consolidated financial statements.

CEDC’s subsidiaries maintain their books of account and prepare their statutory financial statements in their respective local currencies. The subsidiaries’ financial statements have been adjusted to reflect accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (U.S. GAAP) for interim financial information and in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and disclosures required by generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments) considered necessary to fairly present our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows for the interim periods presented have been included. Operating results for the three and six-month periods ended June 30, 2008 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2008.

The balance sheet at December 31, 2007 has been derived from the audited financial statements at that date but does not include all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements.

The unaudited interim financial statements should be read with reference to the consolidated financial statements and footnotes thereto included in our annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2007.

3. ACQUISITIONS

On March 11, 2008, the Company and certain of its affiliates entered into a Share Sale and Purchase Agreement and certain other agreements with White Horse Intervest Limited, a British Virgin Islands Company, and certain of White Horse’s affiliates, relating to the Company’s acquisition from White Horse of 85% of the share capital of Copecresto Enterprises Limited, a Cypriot company, (“the Parliament Acquisition”). In connection with this acquisition, the Company paid a consideration of approximately $180 million in cash and 2.2 million shares of common stock. On May 2, 2008 the Company delivered the remaining 250,000 shares of the Share Consideration. There is still $15 million of the cash consideration that is deferred pending the consummation of certain reorganization transactions expected to be completed over the next 18-24 months.

On May 23, 2008, the Company and certain of its affiliates, entered into, and closed upon, a Share Sale and Purchase Agreement and certain other agreements whereby the Company acquired shares representing 50% minus one vote of the voting power, and 75% of the economic interests in the Whitehall Group (“the Whitehall Acquisition”). The Whitehall Group is a leading importer of premium spirits and wines in Russia. The aggregate consideration paid by the Company was $200 million, paid in cash at the closing. In addition the Company is expected to issue approximately 838,000 shares of its common stock during the third quarter 2008 and pay €16.05 million payable on the first anniversary of the closing.

The Company has consolidated the Whitehall Group as a business combination as of May 23, 2008, on the basis that the Whitehall Group is a Variable Interest Entity and the Company has been assessed as being the primary beneficiary. Included within the Whitehall Group is a 50/50 joint venture with Möet Henessy. This joint venture is accounted for using the equity method and is recorded on the face of the balance sheet in investments with minority interest recorded at fair value on the face of the balance sheet. The current term of the joint venture is until June 2013 at which point the Whitehall Group will have the option to acquire the remaining shares of the entity.

The goodwill arising out of the Parliament and Whitehall acquisitions is attributable to the immediate platform for expansion in Russia that they provide to the Company. The Company is in the process of completing its valuations and refining its purchase price adjustments for Parliament and Whitehall, which are expected to be finalized by December 31, 2008. The primary areas of further review include finalizing fixed asset and intangible asset valuations. As such, the allocation of the purchase price is subject to further adjustments.

The Company has not presented pro-forma results of operations of the Company to give effect to these acquisitions as if the acquisitions had occurred on January 1, 2008 and 2007 because there are no pre-closing interim results from Parliament and Whitehall that are available on a basis similar to US GAAP. The companies were not required to prepare interim consolidated financial statements and as such have only statutory tax accounts available. The Company believes that the inclusion of this information would provide misleading information for the investor.

On July 9, 2008, the Company closed a strategic investment in the Russian Alcohol Group (“Russian Alcohol”) through an equity investment of $181.5 million in Russian Alcohol which will provide the Company with an initial stake of approximately 42% in Russian Alcohol. This transaction is in connection with Lion Capital LLP’s acquisition of a controlling stake in Russian

Alcohol. In addition to the equity investment, CEDC purchased $103.5 million of exchangeable notes which bear interest at 8.3% and can be fully exchanged into additional shares of Russian Alcohol starting in 2010. Our agreements governing this investment include put and call options to acquire an indirect controlling interest in Russian Alcohol starting in 2010 based on the prior year EBITDA.

4. INTANGIBLE ASSETS OTHER THAN GOODWILL

The major components of intangible assets are:

	June 30, 2008			December 31, 2007
Non-amortizable intangible assets:
Trademarks	$	770,553		$	543,123
Total		770,553			543,123
Amortizable intangible assets:
Trademarks	$	7,774		$	6,754
Customer relationships		2,204			1,913
Less accumulated amortization		(7,549	)		(6,093	)
Total		2,429			2,574
Total intangible assets	$	772,982		$	545,697

Management considers trademarks that are indefinite-lived assets to have high or market-leader brand recognition within their market segments based on the length of time they have existed, the comparatively high volumes sold and their general market positions relative to other products in their respective market segments. These trademarks include Soplica, Zubrówka, Absolwent, Royal, Parliament and the rights for Bols Vodka in Poland, Hungary and Russia. Taking the above into consideration, as well as the evidence provided by analyses of vodka products life cycles, market studies, competitive and environmental trends, management believes that these brands will generate cash flows for an indefinite period of time, and that the useful lives of these brands are indefinite. In accordance with SFAS 142, intangible assets with an indefinite life are not amortized but are reviewed at least annually for impairment.

5. COMPREHENSIVE INCOME/(LOSS)

Comprehensive income/(loss) is defined as all changes in equity during a period except those resulting from investments by owners and distributions to owners. Comprehensive income/(loss) includes net income adjusted by, among other items, foreign currency translation adjustments. The foreign translation losses/gains on the re-measurements from foreign currencies to U.S. dollars are classified separately as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income included in stockholders’ equity.

As of June 30, 2008, the Polish Zloty exchange rate used to translate the balance sheet strengthened by approximately 13% as compared to the exchange rate as of December 31, 2007, and as a result a comprehensive income was recognized. Additionally, translation gains and losses with respect to long-term subordinated inter-company loans with the parent company are charged to other comprehensive income. No deferred tax benefit has been recorded on the comprehensive income/(loss) in regard to the long-term inter-company transactions with the parent company, as the repayment of any equity investment is not anticipated in the foreseeable future.

6. EARNINGS PER SHARE

The following table sets forth the computation of basic and diluted earnings per share for the periods indicated.

	Three months ended June 30,				Six months ended June 30,
	2008		2007		2008		2007
Basic:
Net income	$	46,807	$	19,971	$	65,339	$	14,795
Weighted average shares of common stock outstanding		42,503		40,074		41,612		39,958
Basic earnings per share	$	1.10	$	0.50	$	1.57	$	0.37
Diluted:
Net income	$	46,807	$	19,971	$	65,339	$	14,795
Weighted average shares of common stock outstanding		42,503		40,074		41,612		39,958
Net effect of dilutive employee stock options based on the treasury stock method		832		499		780		440
Totals		43,335		40,573		42,392		40,398
Diluted earnings per share	$	1.08	$	0.49	$	1.54	$	0.37

Employee stock options granted have been included in the above calculations of diluted earnings per share since the exercise price is less than the average market price of the common stock during the three and six months periods ended June 30, 2008 and 2007. In addition there is no adjustment to fully diluted shares related to the Convertible Senior Notes as the average market price was below the conversion price for the period.

7. BORROWINGS

Bank Facilities

As of June 30, 2008, $87.1 million remained available under the Company’s overdraft facilities. These overdraft facilities are renewed on an annual basis.

As of June 30, 2008, the Company had utilized approximately $141.5 million of a multipurpose credit line agreement in connection with the 2007 tender offer in Poland to purchase the remaining outstanding shares of Polmos Bialystok S.A. The Company’s obligations under the credit line agreement are guaranteed through promissory notes by certain subsidiaries of the Company. The indebtedness under the credit line agreement bears interest at a rate equal to the one month Warsaw Interbank Rate plus a margin of 1.2% and matures on March 31, 2009.

On April 24, 2008, the Company signed a credit agreement with Bank Zachodni WBK SA in Poland to provide up to $50 million of financing to be used to finance a portion of the Parliament and Whitehall acquisition, as well as general working capital needs of the Company. The agreement provides for a $30 million five year amortizing term facility and a one year $20 million short term facility with annual renewal. The facilities bear interest at 6 month LIBOR plus 1.65% for the five year facility and 1.45% for the short term facility.

Senior Secured Notes

In connection with the Bols and Polmos Bialystok acquisitions, on July 25, 2005 the Company completed the issuance of €325 million 8% Senior Secured Notes due 2012 (the “Notes”). Interest is due semi-annually on the 25th of January and July, and the Notes are guaranteed on a senior basis by certain of the Company’s subsidiaries. The Indenture governing our Notes contains certain restrictive covenants, including covenants limiting the Company’s ability to: make certain payments, including dividends or other distributions, with respect to the share capital of the parent or its subsidiaries; incur or guarantee additional indebtedness or issue preferred stock; make certain investments; prepay or redeem subordinated debt or equity; create certain liens or enter into sale and leaseback transactions; engage in certain transactions with affiliates; sell assets or consolidate or merge with or into other companies; issue or sell share capital of certain subsidiaries; and enter into other lines of business.

Convertible Senior Notes

On March 7, 2008, the Company completed the issuance of $310 million aggregate principal amount of 3% Convertible Senior Notes due 2013 (the “Convertible Notes”). Interest is due semi-annually on the 15th of March and September, beginning on September 15, 2008. The Convertible Senior Notes are convertible in certain circumstances into cash and, if applicable, shares of our common stock, based on an initial conversion rate of 14.7113 shares per $1,000 principle amount, subject to certain adjustments. Upon conversion of the notes, the Company will deliver cash up to the aggregate principle amount of the notes to be converted and, at the election of the Company, cash and/or shares of common stock in respect to the remainder, if any, of the conversion obligation.

The proceeds from the Convertible Notes were used to fund the cash portions of the acquisition of Copecresto Enterprises Limited and Whitehall.

As of June 30, 2008 the Company had accrued interest included in other accrued liabilities of $2.3 million related to the Convertible Senior Notes, with the next coupon due for payment on September 15, 2008.

8. INVENTORIES

Inventories are stated at the lower of cost (first-in, first-out method) or market value. Elements of cost include materials, labor and overhead and are classified as follows:

	June 30, 2008		December 31, 2007
Raw materials and supplies	$	28,238	$	19,051
In-process inventories		8,091		2,479
Finished goods and goods for resale		174,665		119,742
Total	$	210,994	$	141,272

Because of the nature of the products supplied by the Company, great attention is paid to inventory rotation. Where goods are estimated to be obsolete or unmarketable they are written down to a value reflecting the net realizable value in their relevant condition.

Cost includes customs duty (where applicable), and all costs associated with bringing the inventory to a condition for sale. These costs include importation, handling, storage and transportation costs, and exclude rebates received from suppliers, which are reflected as reductions to closing inventory. Inventories are comprised primarily of beer, wine, spirits, packaging materials and non-alcoholic beverages.

9. INCOME TAXES

The Company operates in several tax jurisdictions primarily: the United States of America, Poland, Hungary and Russia. All subsidiaries file their own corporate tax returns as well as account for their own deferred tax assets and liabilities. The Company does not file a tax return in Delaware based upon its consolidated income, but does file a return in Delaware based on the income statement for transactions occurring in the United States of America.

The Company adopted the provisions of FASB Interpretation No. 48, “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes, an interpretation of FASB Statement 109”, effective January 1, 2007. Interpretation 48 prescribes a recognition threshold and a measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. Benefits from tax positions should be recognized in the financial statements only when it is more likely than not that the tax position will be sustained upon examination by the appropriate taxing authority that would have full knowledge of all relevant information. A tax position that meets the more-likely-than-not recognition threshold is measured at the largest amount of benefit that is greater than fifty percent likely of being realized upon ultimate settlement. Tax positions that previously failed to meet the more-likely-than-not recognition threshold should be recognized in the first subsequent financial reporting period in which that threshold is met. Previously recognized tax positions that no longer meet the more-likely-than-not recognition threshold should be derecognized in the first subsequent financial reporting period in which that threshold is no longer met. Interpretation 48 also provides guidance on the accounting for and disclosure of unrecognized tax benefits, interest and penalties. Adoption of Interpretation 48 did not have a significant impact on the Corporation’s financial statements.

The Company files income tax returns in the U.S., Poland, Hungary, Russia, as well as in various other countries throughout the world in which we conduct our business. The major tax jurisdictions and their earliest fiscal years that are currently open for tax examinations are 2003 in the U.S., 2002 in Poland and Hungary and 2005 in Russia.

10. STOCKHOLDERS EQUITY

On June 25, 2008, the Company completed a public offering of 3,250,000 shares of common stock, at an offering price to the public of $68.00 per share. In addition, pursuant to the terms of the offering the underwriters exercised their over-allotment option for an additional 325,000 shares. The net proceeds from the offering, including the sale of shares in accordance with the over-allotment option, was $233.8 million, after deducting underwriting discounts and commissions and estimated offering expenses. The majority of the proceeds of the equity offering were used to fund a portion of the Company’s investment in the Russian Alcohol Group.

11. OPERATING SEGMENTS

As a result of the Company’s expansion into new geographic areas, namely Russia, the Company has implemented a segmental approach to the business based upon geographic locations. As such the Company operates in three primary segments: Poland, Russia and Hungary.

14. FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

Financial Instruments and Their Fair Values

Financial instruments consist mainly of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable, bank loans, overdraft facilities and long-term debt. The monetary assets represented by these financial instruments are primarily located in Poland, Hungary and Russia. Consequently, they are subject to currency translation risk when reporting in U.S. Dollars.

Derivative financial instruments

The Company is exposed to market movements in foreign currency exchange rates that could affect the Company’s results of operations and financial condition. In accordance with SFAS 133, “Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities”, the Company recognizes all derivatives as either assets or liabilities on the balance sheet and measures those instruments at fair value.

The fair values of the Company’s derivative instruments can change with fluctuations in interest rates and/or currency rates and are expected to offset changes in the values of the underlying exposures. The Company’s derivative instruments are held to hedge economic exposures. The Company follows internal policies to manage interest rate and foreign currency risks, including limitations on derivative market-making or other speculative activities.

To qualify for hedge accounting under SFAS No. 133, the details of the hedging relationship must be formally documented at the inception of the arrangement, including the risk management objective, hedging strategy, hedged item, specific risk that is being hedged, the derivative instrument, how effectiveness is being assessed and how ineffectiveness will be measured. The derivative must be highly effective in offsetting either changes in the fair value or cash flows, as appropriate, of the risk being hedged.

Effectiveness is evaluated on a retrospective and prospective basis based on quantitative measures. When it is determined that a derivative is not, or has ceased to be, highly effective as a hedge, the Company discontinues hedge accounting prospectively. The Company discontinues hedge accounting prospectively when (1) the derivative is no longer highly effective in offsetting changes in the cash flows of a hedged item; (2) the derivative expires or is sold, terminated, or exercised; (3) it is no longer probable that the forecasted transaction will occur; or (4) management determines that designating the derivative as a hedging instrument is no longer appropriate.

Fair value hedges are hedges that offset the risk of changes in the fair values of recorded assets, liabilities and firm commitments. The Company records changes in the fair value of derivative instruments which are designated and deemed effective as fair value hedges, in earnings offset by the corresponding changes in the fair value of the hedged items.

In September 2005, the Company entered into a coupon swap arrangement which exchanges a fixed Euro based coupon of 8%, with a variable Euro based coupon (IRS) based upon the 6 month Euribor rate plus a margin. The hedge is accounted for as a fair value hedge according to SFAS 133 and is tested for effectiveness on a quarterly basis using the long haul method. Under this method, as long as the hedge is deemed highly effective both the fair value of the hedge and the hedge item are marked to market with the net impact recorded as gain or loss in the income statement. For the six months ended June 30, 2008, the company recorded a net loss of $50,955. In September 2005, the Company entered into a second hedge that exchanged the variable Euro coupon with a variable Polish Zloty coupon (CIRS). However, due to the continued strength of the Polish economy and currency the Company closed this swap contract. The hedge did not qualify for hedge accounting and therefore the changes in fair value were reflected in the results of operations.

In March 2008, a portion of the IRS hedge related to the repurchased Senior Secured Notes was closed and written off, and a new hedging relationship was created with the hedge match one for one the remaining outstanding Senior Secured Notes.

In February 2007 and December 2006, a portion of the IRS hedge was closed and a new hedging relationship was created. The mark to market valuation of the closed hedges at the time was frozen and is being amortized over the remaining useful life of the hedged item. The hedge closure in December 2006 was related to the part of the Senior Secured Notes repurchased in January 2007. Consequently, the amount was written off in January 2007 following the repurchase. As of June 30, 2008, there is an unamortized asset of $0.9 million recorded as an adjustment to the valuation of the Senior Secured Notes.

15. FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

Effective January 1, 2008, the Company adopted SFAS No. 157, which defines fair value as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an 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. SFAS No. 157 establishes a three-level fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs used to measure fair value. This hierarchy requires entities to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs. The three levels of inputs used to measure fair value are as follows:

Level 1 — Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

Level 2 — Observable inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1, such as quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar assets and liabilities in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data.

Level 3 — Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities. This includes certain pricing models, discounted cash flow methodologies and similar techniques that use significant unobservable inputs.

The Company’s adoption of SFAS No. 157 did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

We evaluate the position of each financial instrument measured at fair value in the hierarchy individually based on the valuation methodology we apply. At June 30, 2008, we have no material financial assets or liabilities carried at fair value using significant level 1 or level 2 inputs and the only instruments we value using level 3 inputs are currency swap agreements as follows:

Coupon Swap

In September 2005, the Company entered into a coupon swap arrangement which exchanges a fixed Euro based coupon of 8%, with a variable Euro based coupon (IRS) based upon the 6 month Euribor rate plus a margin. The hedge is accounted for as a fair value hedge according to SFAS 133 and is tested for effectiveness on a quarterly basis using the long haul method. Under this method, as long as the hedge is deemed highly effective both the fair value of the hedge and the hedged item are marked to market with the net impact recorded as gain or loss in the income statement. In September 2005, the Company entered into a second hedge that exchanged the variable Euro coupon with a variable Polish Zloty coupon (CIRS). However, due to the continued strength of the Polish economy and currency the Company closed this swap contract. The hedge did not qualify for hedge accounting and therefore the changes in fair value were reflected in the results of operations.

The fair value of these instruments as at June 30, 2008, was a $35.5 million liability, which represented a $7.3 million increase from the $28.2 million liability as at December 31, 2007 and was recognized as a loss in the consolidated statement of operations. This loss, however, was offset by the fair value revaluation of the Senior Secured Notes.

16. STOCK OPTION PLANS AND RESTRICTED STOCK AWARDS

As of January 1, 2006, the Company adopted SFAS No. 123(R) “Share-Based Payment” requiring the recognition of compensation expense in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income related to the fair value of its employee share-based options. SFAS No. 123(R) revises SFAS No. 123 “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation” and supersedes APB Opinion No. 25 “Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees”. SFAS No. 123(R) is supplemented by SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin (“SAB”) No. 107 “Share-Based Payment”. SAB No. 107 expresses the SEC staff’s views regarding the interaction between SFAS No. 123(R) and certain SEC rules and regulations including the valuation of share-based payments arrangements.

The Company recognizes the cost of all employee stock options on a straight-line attribution basis over their respective vesting periods, net of estimated forfeitures. The Company has selected the modified prospective method of transition; accordingly, prior periods have not been restated.

SFAS No. 123(R) “Share-Based Payment” requires the recognition of compensation expense in the Consolidated Statements of Income related to the fair value of employee share-based options. Determining the fair value of share-based awards at the grant date requires judgment, including estimating the expected term that stock options will be outstanding prior to exercise, the associated volatility and the expected dividends. Judgment is also required in estimating the amount of share-based awards expected to be forfeited prior to vesting. If actual forfeitures differ significantly from these estimates, share-based compensation expense could be materially impacted. Prior to adopting SFAS No. 123(R), the Company applied Accounting Principles Board (“APB”) Opinion No. 25, and related Interpretations, in accounting for its stock-based compensation plans. All employee stock options were granted at or above the grant date market price. Accordingly, no compensation cost was recognized for fixed stock option grants in prior periods.

The Company’s 2007 Stock Incentive Plan (“Incentive Plan”) provides for the grant of stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock and restricted stock units to directors, executives, and other employees (“employees”) of the Company and to non-employee service providers of the Company. Following a shareholder resolution in April 2003 and the stock splits of May 2003, May 2004 and June 2006, the Incentive Plan authorizes, and the Company has reserved for future issuance, up to 1,397,333 shares of Common Stock (subject to an anti-dilution adjustment in the event of a stock split, re-capitalization, or similar transaction). The Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors of the Company administers the Incentive Plan.

The option exercise price for stock options granted under the Incentive Plan may not be less than fair market value but in some cases may be in excess of the closing price of the Common Stock on the date of grant. The Company uses the stock option price based on the closing price of the Common Stock on the day before the date of grant if such price is not materially different than the opening price of the Common Stock on the day of the grant. Stock options may be exercised up to 10 years after the date of grant except as otherwise provided in the particular stock option agreement. Payment for the shares must be in cash, which must be received by the Company prior to any shares being issued. Stock options granted to directors and officers as part of an employee employment contract vest after 2 years. Stock options granted to general employees as part of a loyalty program vest after three years. The Incentive Plan was approved by CEDC shareholders during the annual shareholders meeting on April 30, 2007 to replace the Company’s 1997 Stock Incentive Plan (the “Old Stock Incentive Plan”), which expired in November 2007. The Stock Incentive Plan will expire in November 2017. The terms and conditions of the Stock Incentive Plan are substantially similar to those of the Old Stock Incentive Plan.

Before January 1, 2006 CEDC, the holding company, realized net operating losses and therefore an excess tax benefit (windfall) resulting from the exercise of the awards and a related credit to Additional Paid-in Capital (APIC) of $2.2 million was not recorded in the Company’s books. The excess tax benefits and the credit to APIC for the windfall should not be recorded until the deduction reduces income taxes payable on the basis that cash tax savings have not occurred. The Company will recognize the windfall upon realization.

The Company has issued stock options to employees under stock based compensation plans. Stock options are issued at the current market price, subject to a vesting period, which varies from one to three years. As of June 30, 2008, the Company has not changed the terms of any outstanding awards.

During the six months ended June 30, 2008, the Company recognized compensation cost of $1.68 million and a related deferred tax asset of $0.36 million.

As of June 30, 2008, there was $5.4 million of total unrecognized compensation cost related to non-vested stock options and restricted stock units granted under the Plan. The costs are expected to be recognized over a weighted average period of 31 months through 2008-2011.

Total cash received from exercise of options during the six months ended June 30, 2008 amounted to $1.1 million.

For the six month period ended June 30, 2008, the compensation expense related to all options was calculated based on the fair value of each option grant using the binomial distribution model. The Company has never paid cash dividends and does not currently have plans to pay cash dividends, and thus has assumed a 0% dividend yield. Expected volatilities are based on average of implied and historical volatility projected over the remaining term of the options. The expected life of stock options is estimated based on historical data on exercise of stock options, post-vesting forfeitures and other factors to estimate the expected term of the stock options granted. The risk-free interest rates are derived from the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect on the date of grant for instruments with a remaining term similar to the expected life of the options. In addition, the Company applies an expected forfeiture rate when amortizing stock-based compensation expenses. The estimate of the forfeiture rates is based primarily upon historical experience of employee turnover. As individual grant awards become fully vested, stock-based compensation expense is adjusted to recognize actual forfeitures. The following weighted-average assumptions were used in the calculation of fair value:

	2008			2007
Fair Value	$	18.16		$	10.03
Dividend Yield		0	%		0	%
Expected Volatility		34.1% - 38.5	%		30.5 - 38.4	%
Weighted Average Volatility		37.5	%		37.1	%
Risk Free Interest Rate		1.5% - 3.2	%		4.7 - 5.1	%
Expected Life of Options from Grant		3.2			3.2

17. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENT LIABILITIES

The Company is involved in litigation from time to time and has claims against it in connection with matters arising in the ordinary course of business. In the opinion of management, the outcome of these proceedings will not have a material adverse effect on the Company’s operations.

As part of the Share Purchase Agreement related to the October 2005 Polmos Bialystok Acquisition, the Company is required to ensure that Polmos Bialystok will make investments of at least 77.5 million Polish Zloty during the five years after the acquisition was consummated. As of June 30, 2008, the Company has invested 59.4 million Polish Zloty (approximately $28.0 million) in Polmos Bialystok.

Pursuant to the shareholders’ agreement governing the Company’s investment in Copecresto Enterprises Limited, the Company has the right to purchase all (but not less than all) of the shares of Copecresto capital stock held by the other shareholder. The other shareholder has the right to require the Company to purchase any or all of the shares of Copecresto capital stock held by such other shareholder; provided, that such other shareholder may not exercise this right other than in respect of all of the shares of Copecresto capital stock it holds if the amount of Copecresto capital stock subject to such exercise is less than 1% of the total outstanding capital stock of Copecresto.

The Company’s right may be exercised beginning on March 13, 2015 and will terminate on the earliest to occur of (1) the delivery of a notice of default under the shareholders’ agreement, (2) the delivery of a notice of the other shareholder’s exercise of its right in respect of all of the Copecresto capital stock held by such shareholder and (3) the date that is ten years after the date of completion of certain reorganization transactions relating to Copecresto. The other shareholder’s right may be exercised beginning on March 13, 2011 and will terminate on the earliest to occur of (A) the delivery of a notice of default under the shareholders’ agreement, (B) the Company’s exercise of its right and (C) the date that is ten years after the date of completion of certain reorganization transactions relating to Copecresto. The other shareholder also may exercise its right one or more times within the three months following any change in control of the Company or of Bols Sp. z o.o., a subsidiary of the Company.

The aggregate price that the Company would be required to pay in the event either of these rights is exercised will be equal to the product of (x) a fraction, the numerator of which is the total number of shares of capital stock of Copecresto covered by the exercise of the right, and the denominator of which is the total number of shares of capital stock of Copecresto then outstanding, multiplied by (y) the EBITDA of Copecresto from the year immediately preceding the year in which the right is exercised, multiplied by (z) 12, if the right is exercised in 2010 or before, 11, if the right is exercised in 2011, or 10, if the right is exercised in 2012 or later; provided, that in no event will the product of (y) and (z), above, be less than $300,000,000.

The Whitehall Acquisition purchase agreement includes an agreement that if the average daily closing price of the Company’s common stock during the 20-trading day period ending on the date that is six months after the closing date (the “Average Market Price”) is less than $51.32 (a per share valuation based on an averaging formula agreed upon among the parties) (the “Minimum Share Price”), the Company will be required to pay the Seller an amount equal to the difference between the Minimum Share Price and the Average Market Price per share multiplied by the number of shares of common stock issued by the Company as part of the consideration. If during the 90-day period following the six-month anniversary of the closing date, the Seller sells any of the common stock included in the consideration for an average sales price that is less than the Minimum Price, the Company will be required to pay the Trustee an amount equal to the difference between the Minimum Share Price and the average market price per share multiplied by the number of shares of Company common stock sold by the Seller.

As part of the Whitehall Acquisition, the Company entered into a shareholders’ agreement with the other shareholder pursuant to which the Company has the right to purchase, and the other shareholder has the right to require the Company to purchase, all (but not less than all) of the shares of Whitehall capital stock held by such shareholder. Either of these rights may be exercised at any time, subject, in certain circumstances, to the consent of third parties. The aggregate price that the Company would be required to pay in the event either of these rights is exercised will fall within a range, determined based on Whitehall’s EBIT as well as the EBIT of certain related businesses, during two separate periods: (1) the period from January 1, 2008 through the end of the year in which the right is exercised, and (2) the two full financial years immediately preceding the end of the year in which the right is exercised. Subject to certain limited exceptions, the exercise price will be (A) no less than the future value as of the date of exercise of $42.7 million, and (B) no more than the future value as of the date of exercise of $99.7 million.

18. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTION

In January of 2005, the Company entered into a rental agreement for a facility located in northern Poland, which is 33% owned by the Company’s Chief Operating Officer. The monthly rent to be paid by the Company for this location is approximately $16,300 per month and relates to facilities to be shared by two subsidiaries of the Company.

During the six months of 2008, the Company made sales to a restaurant which is partially owned by the Chief Executive Officer of the Company. All sales were made on normal commercial terms, and total sales for the six months ended June 30, 2008 and 2007 were approximately $38,000 and $58,000.

19. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

On May 22, 2008, the Company entered into an Investment Commitment Letter and agreed to the forms of certain other agreements with Lion Capital LLP and certain of Lion’s affiliates (collectively “Lion”) in connection with the Company’s commitment to make certain debt and equity investments with Lion in a newly-formed special purpose vehicle for the purpose of acquiring all of the outstanding equity of the Russian Alcohol Group (“RAG”). On June 18, 2008, the Company amended and restated the Investment Commitment Letter and agreed to revised forms of other agreements with Lion relating to the transactions. On July 9, 2008, the Company completed the Investments (as defined below) and (1) paid $181.5 million for approximately 47.5% of the common equity of a newly formed Cayman Islands company (“Cayco,” and such transaction the “Equity Investment”) which indirectly acquired all of the outstanding equity of RAG (the “Acquisition”), and (2) purchased $103.5 million in subordinated exchangeable loan notes (the “Notes”) issued by a subsidiary of Cayco and exchangeable into equity of Cayco (together with the Equity Investment, the “Investments”). Lion and affiliates of Goldman, Sachs & Co. own the remaining common equity of Cayco, and certain of the current owners and management of RAG made a minority equity investment in a subsidiary of Cayco. The Company’s effective, indirect equity stake in RAG following the Acquisition is approximately 42%. Lion has a continuing interest in the equity returns on the Company’s Equity Investment. The Investment Commitment Letter also gives the Company certain approval rights over the terms of any refinancing of RAG’s debt that may be entered into by Lion.

On July 8, 2008, the Company entered into a Shareholders’ Agreement with certain affiliates of Lion and with Cayco to establish the parties’ rights, duties and obligations with respect to their equity investments in Cayco. An indirect subsidiary of Cayco (“Lion Lux”) issued the Notes to the Company pursuant to an Instrument by way of Deed made by Cayco, Lion Lux and an 88.4%-owned direct subsidiary of Cayco that is the indirect parent of Lion Lux.

In connection with the Company’s investment in the Russian Alcohol Group, Cayco has the right to require the Company to purchase all, but not some, of the capital stock of Cayco Sub held by Cayco (the “Put Option”). The Put Option will be exercisable during the 2010 Period and the 2011 Period and will expire one day after the end of the 2011 Period, and will be extended if the Call Option is extended to the 2012 Period. The price at which the Company must purchase such capital stock (the “Put Option Price”) will be equal to the Russian Alcohol Group’s adjusted equity value for the relevant period, determined based on EBITDA multiplied by the product of (a) Cayco’s ownership percentage in Cayco Sub and (b)(i) 14.05, if the Put Option is exercised during the 2010 Period, (ii) 13.14, if the Put Option is exercised during the 2011 Period, or (iii) 12.80, if the Put Option is exercised during the 2012 Period , less debt plus certain adjustments for cash and working capital. The Put Option may not be exercised unless the minimum adjusted EBITDA exceeds a certain agreed value in each period.

On July 2, 2008, the Company entered into a Facility Agreement with Bank Handlowy w Warszawie S.A., which provided for a term loan facility of $40 million. The term loan bears interest at a rate equal to the London Interbank Rate plus a margin of 2.50% per annum. The term loan is guaranteed by CEDC, Carey Agri and the certain other subsidiaries of the Company and is secured by all of the shares of capital stock of Carey Agri and subsequently will be further secured by shares of capital stock in certain other subsidiaries of CEDC.

20. RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

In September 2006, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 157 “Fair Value Measurements” (“SFAS 157”). SFAS 157 clarifies the principle that fair value should be based on the assumptions market participants would use when pricing an asset or liability and establishes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the information used to develop those assumptions. Under the standard, fair value measurements would be separately disclosed by level within the fair value hierarchy. SFAS 157 is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007 and interim periods within those fiscal years, with early adoption permitted. The Company has implemented certain provisions of this pronouncement and is not expecting any material impact that the full implementation of SFAS 157 would have on the consolidated financial statements when adopted.

In February 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 159, “The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities—including an amendment of FASB Statement No. 115.” SFAS No. 159 permits entities to choose to measure many financial

instruments and certain other items at fair value. Unrealized gains and losses on items for which the fair value option has been elected will be recognized in earnings at each subsequent reporting date. SFAS No. 159 is effective for our Company from January 1, 2008. The implementation of SFAS 159, did not have any material impact on the consolidated financial statements.

In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 141-R, “Business Combinations”. This Statement applies prospectively to business combinations for which the acquisition date is on or after the beginning of the first annual reporting period beginning on or after December 15, 2008, which are business combinations in the year ending December 31, 2009 for the Company. The objective of this Statement is to improve the relevance, representational faithfulness, and comparability of the information that a reporting entity provides in its financial reports about a business combination and its effects.

In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS 160, “Noncontrolling Interests in Consolidated Financial Statements – an amendment of ARB No. 51”. This Statement is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning on or after December 15, 2008, which for the Company is the year ending December 31, 2009 and the interim periods within the fiscal year. The objective of this Statement is to improve the relevance, comparability, and transparency of the financial information that a reporting entity provides in its consolidated financial statements. We are in the process of evaluating the new disclosure requirements under SFAS 160.

In March 2008, the FASB issued SFAS No. 161, “Disclosures about Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities – An Amendment of SFAS No. 133”. SFAS 161 seeks to improve financial reporting for derivative instruments and hedging activities by requiring enhanced disclosures regarding the impact on financial position, financial performance, and cash flows. To achieve this increased transparency, SFAS 161 requires (1) the disclosure of the fair value of derivative instruments and gains and losses in a tabular format; (2) the disclosure of derivative features that are credit risk-related; and (3) cross-referencing within the footnotes. SFAS 161 is effective for us on January 1, 2009. We are in the process of evaluating the new disclosure requirements under SFAS 161.

In May 2008, the FASB issued FSP APB 14-1, which impacts the accounting treatment for convertible debt instruments that allow for either mandatory or optional cash settlements. FSP APB 14-1 will impact the accounting associated with our $310.0 million senior convertible notes. This FSP will require us to recognize additional non-cash interest expense based on the market rate for similar debt instruments without the conversion feature. Furthermore, it requires recognizing interest expense in prior periods pursuant to the retrospective accounting treatment. FSP APB 14-1 will become effective beginning in our first quarter of 2009 and is required to be applied retrospectively to all presented periods, as applicable. We are currently evaluating the impact on our financial statements of applying the provisions of FSP APB 14-1.

The following discussion and analysis provides information which management believes is relevant to the reader’s assessment and understanding of the Company’s results of operations and financial condition and should be read in conjunction with the Consolidated Financial Statements and the notes thereto found elsewhere in this report.

Overview

We are the largest vodka producer by value and volume in Poland, and one of the largest producers of vodka in the world. We produced and sold over 9.3 million nine-liter cases of vodka in 2007 in the four main vodka segments in Poland: top premium, premium, mainstream and economy. In addition, in our Bols plant, we produce the top selling vodka in Hungary, Royal Vodka, which we distribute through our Hungarian subsidiary, Bols Hungary.

In March 2008, we closed our acquisition of 85% of the capital stock of the Parliament Group in Russia which owns various alcoholic beverage production and distribution assets, including the Parliament vodka brand. Parliament vodka is a top selling premium vodka brand in Russia. Parliament is expected to reach sales of over 3 million 9 liter cases in 2008. Parliament provides us our first platform in Russia where we can not only grow the Parliament brand domestically, but also add import brands into the mix, thereby leveraging the existing structure to take advantage of the premiumization of alcohol consumption taking place in the Russian market. In May 2008, we closed our acquisition of a 75% economic stake in the Whitehall Group in Russia which is a leading importer of premium spirits in Russia. For the three months ended June 30, 2008, the results from operations include approximately one month of activity related to the Whitehall Group.

The below results do not include any impact of the investment in Russian Alcohol as the transaction was completed in July 2008.

Results of Operations:

Three months ended June 30, 2008 compared to three months ended June 30, 2007

A summary of the Company’s operating performance (expressed in thousands except per share amounts) is presented below.

Net Sales

Net sales represent total sales net of all customer rebates, excise tax on production and exclusive imports and value added tax. Total net sales increased by approximately 56.9%, or $152.7 million, from $268.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2007 to $421.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2008. This increase in sales is due to the following factors:

Net Sales for three months ended June 30, 2007	$	268,635
Increase from acquisitions		88,282
Existing business sales growth		15,307
Excise tax reduction		(28,554	)
Impact of foreign exchange rates		77,632
Net sales for three months ended June 30, 2008	$	421,302

Factors impacting our existing business sales for the three months ending June 30, 2008 include the growth of our key vodka brands, with Bols Vodka, our flagship premium vodka, growing by 13% in volume terms as compared to the three months ending June 30, 2007. Sales of our exclusive import brands in U.S Dollars grew by 45% in value terms for the three months ending June 30, 2008 as compared to the same period in 2007.

As of January 2008, sales of products which we produce at Polmos Bialystok and Bols to certain key accounts were moved from our distribution companies to the producer, Polmos Bialystok and Bols in order to reduce distribution costs. When a sale is reported directly from a producer, excise tax is eliminated from net sales and when a sale is made from a distribution company the sales are recorded gross with excise tax. Therefore the movement of the sales contracts from a distributor to the producer reduces the amount of net sales reported through the elimination of excise tax and also increases gross profit as a percent of sales. The impact of this sales reduction for the three months ended June 30, 2008 was $28.6 million.

Based upon average exchange rates for the three months ended June 30, 2008 and June 30, 2007, the Polish Zloty appreciated by approximately 22%. This resulted in an increase of $77.6 million of sales in U.S. Dollar terms.

As a result of our recent acquisitions in Russia, we have moved to a segmental approach to our business split by our primary geographic locations of operations, Poland, Russia and Hungary. Included in the sales growth from acquisitions of $88.3 million was $62.3 million of sales related to the newly acquired Russian businesses of Parliament and Whitehall, which is reflected in our Russian Segment in the below table.

	Three months ended June 30,
	2008	2007

Poland	349,736	261,365
Russia	62,347	—
Hungary	9,219	7,270
Total Net Sales	421,302	268,635

Gross Profit

Total gross profit increased by approximately 86.5%, or $48.1 million, to $103.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2008, from $55.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2007, reflecting sales growth for the factors noted above in the three months ended June 30, 2008. Gross margin increased from 20.7% of net sales for the three months ended June 30, 2007 to 24.6% of net sales for the three months ended June 30, 2008. The primary factor resulting in the improved margin was the inclusion of the

Amounts in tables expressed in thousands, except per share information

newly acquired businesses in Russia, Parliament and Whitehall, which, as producers and importers, operate on a higher gross profit margin than the Polish business, which is more significantly impacted by lower margin distribution operations. Margins were further improved from lower spirit pricing for the three months ended June 30, 2008 as well as the growth of the exclusive import brands.

Operating Expenses

Operating expenses consist of selling, general and administrative, or “S,G&A” expenses, advertising expenses, non-production depreciation and amortization, and provision for bad debts. Total operating expenses increased by approximately 100.3%, or $30.5 million, from $30.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2007 to $60.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2008. Approximately $2.4 million of this increase resulted primarily from the effects of the acquisition of PHS in July 2007, approximately $10.7 million of this increase resulted from the effects of the acquisition of Parliament in March 2008, approximately $3.6 million of this increase resulted from the effects of the acquisition of the Whitehall Group and the remainder of the increase resulted primarily from the growth of the business and the impact of foreign exchange expenses as detailed below.

Operating expenses for three months ended June 30, 2007	$	30,405
Increase from acquisitions		16,650
Increase from existing business growth		4,136
Impact of foreign exchange rates		9,704
Operating expenses for three months ended June 30, 2008	$	60,895

The table below sets forth the items of operating expenses.

S,G&A	$	45,057	$	24,537
Marketing.		12,841		4,168
Depreciation and amortization		2,997		1,700
Total operating expense	$	60,895	$	30,405

S,G&A consists of salaries, warehousing and transportation costs, administrative expenses and bad debt expense. S,G&A increased by approximately 84.1%, or $20.6 million, from $24.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2007 to $45.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2008. Approximately $16.7 million of this increase resulted primarily from the effects of the acquisitions discussed above and the remainder of the increase resulted primarily from the growth of the business and the appreciation of the Polish Zloty against the U.S. Dollar. As a percent of sales, S,G&A has increased from 9.1% of net sales for the three months ended June 30, 2007 to 10.7% of net sales for the three months ended June 30, 2008.

Depreciation and amortization increased by approximately 76.5%, or $ 1.3 million, from $1.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2007 to $3.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2008. This increase resulted primarily from our existing business growth and the acquisition of Parliament and Whitehall.

Operating Income

Total operating income increased by approximately 70.5%, or $17.7 million, from $25.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2007 to $42.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2008. This increase resulted primarily from the factors described under “Net Sales” above. The table below summarizes the segmental split of operating profit.

Income Tax

Our effective tax rate for the three months ending June 30, 2008 was 21.0%, which represents an increase of 2.2% over our historical effective tax rates due to the influence of the newly acquired Russian business. The statutory income tax rate in Russia is 24% as compared to 19% in Poland.

Non Operating Income and Expenses

Total interest expense increased by approximately 60.2%, or $5.0 million, from $8.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2007 to $13.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2008. This increase resulted from a combination of additional borrowings to finance the purchase of Polmos Bialystok shares completed in June 2007, the issuance of our Convertible Senior Notes to finance the Parliament acquisition and the Whitehall acquisition and increased interest rates in 2008 as compared to 2007.

The Company recognized $31.0 million of unrealized foreign exchange rate gain in the three months ended June 30, 2008, primarily related to the impact of movements in exchange rates on our Senior Secured and Senior Convertible Notes, as compared to $9.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2007.

Factors impacting our existing business sales for the six months ending June 30, 2008 include the growth of our key vodka brands, with Bols Vodka, our flagship premium vodka, growing by 15% in volume terms as compared to the six months ending June 30, 2007. Sales of our exclusive import brands in U.S Dollars grew by 44% in value terms for the six months ending June 30, 2008 as compared to the same period in 2007.

As of January 2008, sales of products which we produce at Polmos Bialystok and Bols to certain key accounts were moved from our distribution companies to the producer, Polmos Bialystok and Bols in order to reduce distribution costs. When a sale is reported directly from a producer, excise tax is eliminated from net sales and when a sale is made from a distribution company the sales are recorded gross with excise tax. Therefore the movement of the sales contracts from a distributor to the producer reduces the amount of net sales reported through the elimination of excise tax and also increases gross profit as a percent of sales. The impact of this sales reduction for the six months ended June 30, 2008 was $43.6 million.

Based upon average exchange rates for the six months ended June 30, 2008 and 2007, the Polish Zloty appreciated by approximately 27%. This resulted in an increase of $135.7 million of sales in U.S. Dollar terms.

As a result of our recent acquisitions in Russia, we have moved to a segmental approach to our business split by our primary geographic locations of operations, Poland, Russia and Hungary. Included in the sales growth from acquisitions of $114.6 million was $69.6 million of sales related to the newly acquired Russian businesses of Parliament and Whitehall, which is reflected in our Russian Segment in the below table.

Gross Profit

Total gross profit increased by approximately 66.8%, or $68.1 million, to $170.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2008, from $101.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2007, reflecting sales growth for the factors noted above in the six months ended June 30, 2008. Gross margin increased from 20.5% of net sales for the six months ended June 30, 2007 to 23.1% of net sales for the six months ended June 30, 2008. Factors impacting our margins include improved sales mix, lower spirit costs, the impact of excise tax as described above as well as the consolidation of Parliament and Whitehall from the first quarter and second quarter of 2008 respectively. Parliament and Whitehall which, as producer and importer, operate on a higher gross profit margin than the Polish business, which is more heavily impacted by lower margin distribution operations. Margins were further improved from lower spirit pricing for the three months ended June 30, 2008 as well as the growth of the exclusive import brands.

Operating Expenses

Total operating expenses increased by approximately 75.8%, or $43.8 million, from $57.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2007 to $101.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2008. Approximately $4.4 million of this increase resulted primarily from the effects of the acquisition of PHS in July 2007, approximately $13.0 million of this increase resulted from the effects of the acquisition of Parliament in March 2008, approximately $3.6 million of this increase resulted from the effects of the acquisition of the Whitehall Group and the remainder of the increase resulted primarily from the growth of the business and the impact of foreign exchange expenses as detailed below.

Approximately $20.2 million of this increase resulted primarily from the effects of the acquisitions discussed above and the remainder of the increase resulted primarily from the growth of the business and the appreciation of the Polish Zloty against the U.S. Dollar. As a percent of sales, S,G&A has increased from 9.6% of net sales for the six months ended June 30, 2007 to 10.6% of net sales for the six months ended June 30, 2008.

Depreciation and amortization increased by approximately 45.7%, or $ 1.6 million, from $3.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2007 to $5.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2008.

This increase resulted from a combination of additional borrowings to finance the purchase of Polmos Bialystok shares completed in June 2007, the issuance of our Convertible Senior Notes to finance the Parliament acquisition and the Whitehall acquisition and increased interest rates in 2008 as compared to 2007.

The Company recognized $40.0 million of unrealized foreign exchange rate gain in the six months ended June 30, 2008, related to the impact of movements in exchange rates on our Senior Secured and Senior Convertible Notes, as compared to $6.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2007.

On June 25, 2008, the Company completed a public offering of 3,250,000 shares of common stock, at an offering price to the public of $68.00 per share. In addition, pursuant to the terms of the offering the underwriters exercised their over-allotment option for an additional 325,000 shares. The net proceeds from the offering, including the sale of shares in accordance with the over-allotment option, was $233.8 million, after deducting underwriting discounts and commissions and estimated offering expenses. The majority of the proceeds of the equity offering were used to fund a portion of the Company’s investment in the Russian Alcohol Group.

Statement of Liquidity and Capital Resources

During the periods under review, the Company’s primary sources of liquidity were cash flows generated from operations, credit facilities, the equity offerings, the Convertible Senior Notes offering and proceeds from options exercised. The Company’s primary uses of cash were to fund its working capital requirements, service indebtedness, finance capital expenditures and fund acquisitions. The following table sets forth selected information concerning the Company’s consolidated cash flow during the periods indicated.

	Six months ended June 30, 2008			Six months ended June 30, 2007
	($ in thousands)
Cash flow from operating activities	$	50,154		$	20,045
Cash flow from investing activities	$	(369,553	)	$	(140,312	)
Cash flow from financing activities	$	573,121		$	62,961

Net cash flow from operating activities

Net cash flow from operating activities represents net cash from operations and interest. Net cash provided by operating activities for the six months ended June 30, 2008 was $50.2 million as compared to $20.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2007. The primary driver for this change was working capital movements. Working capital movements utilized $11.2 million of cash inflows for the six months ended June 30, 2008 as compared to $1.5 million of cash outflows for the six months ended June 30, 2007. The primary drivers for the change in working capital movements were higher collection of accounts receivables and reduced excise tax payments in 2008 as compared to 2007. In 2007, the Company shipped product earlier into the market than in prior years, thus increasing excise payments in 2007, which provided a cash flow benefit during the first quarter of 2008.

Net cash flow used in investing activities

Net cash flows used in investing activities represent net cash used to acquire subsidiaries and fixed assets as well as proceeds from sales of fixed assets. Net cash used in investing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2008 was $369.6 million as compared to $140.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2007. The primary cash outflows from investing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2008 were the cash consideration and expenses related to the Parliament and Whitehall acquisitions.

Net cash flow from financing activities

Net cash flow from financing activities represents cash used for servicing indebtedness, borrowings under credit facilities and cash inflows from private placements and exercise of options. Net cash provided by financing activities was $573.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2008 as compared to $63.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2007. The primary source of cash from financing activities was the Company’s offering of $310 million of Convertible Secured Notes to fund the Parliament and Whitehall acquisition, which resulted in net proceeds of $304.4 million, and the proceeds from the common equity offering of $233.8 million, which were used to fund the investment in the Russian Alcohol Group, completed in July 2008.

The Company’s Future Liquidity and Capital Resources

The Company’s primary uses of cash in the future will be to fund its working capital requirements, service indebtedness, finance capital expenditures and fund acquisitions. The Company expects to fund these requirements in the future with cash flows from its operating activities, cash on hand, the financing arrangements described above and other financing arrangements it may enter into from time to time.

Acquisitions – Purchase/Sale Rights

On March 13, 2008, the Company acquired 85% of the share capital of Copecresto Enterprises Limited, a producer and distributor of beverages in Russia, for $180,335,257 in cash and 2,238,806 shares of the Company’s common stock. In addition, on May 23, 2008, the Company’s subsidiary, Polmos Bialystok, closed on its acquisition of 50% minus one vote of the voting power and 75% of the economic interests in the Whitehall Group, a leading importer of premium spirits and wines in Russia, for $200 million in cash and the obligation to issue approximately 838,000 shares of common stock and to make an additional cash payment of €16.05 million on the first anniversary of the acquisition. Finally, on July 9, 2008, the Company closed on its acquisition of approximately 47.5% of the common equity of a Cayman Islands company, referred to as Cayco for approximately $181.5 million in cash, and purchased $103.5 million in subordinated exchangeable loan notes from a subsidiary of Cayco. Lion Capital LLP and affiliates of Goldman Sachs & Co. own the remaining common equity of Cayco, which indirectly own approximately 88.4% of the outstanding equity of the Russian Alcohol Group. The Russian Alcohol Group, also referred to as “RAG,” is the leading vodka producer in Russia. The Company entered into shareholders’ agreements with the other shareholders of Copecresto, Whitehall and RAG, respectively, that include purchase and sale rights relating to the Company’s potential acquisition of the equity interests in these entities that are owned by the other shareholders thereof. The exercise of these rights could affect the Company’s liquidity.

Copecresto Acquisition

Pursuant to the Copecresto shareholders’ agreement, the Company has the right to purchase all (but not less than all) of the shares of Copecresto capital stock held by the other shareholder. The other shareholder has the right to require the Company to purchase any or all of the shares of Copecresto capital stock held by such other shareholder; provided, that such other shareholder may not exercise this right other than in respect of all of the shares of Copecresto capital stock it holds if the amount of Copecresto capital stock subject to such exercise is less than 1% of the total outstanding capital stock of Copecresto.

The Company’s right may be exercised beginning on March 13, 2015 and will terminate on the earliest to occur of (1) the delivery of a notice of default under the shareholders’ agreement, (2) the delivery of a notice of the other shareholder’s exercise of its right in respect of all of the Copecresto capital stock held by such shareholder and (3) the date that is ten years after the date of completion of certain reorganization transactions relating to Copecresto. The other shareholder’s right may be exercised beginning on March 13, 2011 and will terminate on the earliest to occur of (A) the delivery of a notice of default under the shareholders’ agreement, (B) the Company’s exercise of its right and (C) the date that is ten years after the date of completion of certain reorganization transactions relating to Copecresto. The other shareholder also may exercise its right one or more times within the three months following any change in control of the Company or of Bols Sp. z o.o., a subsidiary of the Company.

The aggregate price that the Company would be required to pay in the event either of these rights is exercised will be equal to the product of (x) a fraction, the numerator of which is the total number of shares of capital stock of Copecresto covered by the exercise of the right, and the denominator of which is the total number of shares of capital stock of Copecresto then outstanding, multiplied by (y) the EBITDA of Copecresto from the year immediately preceding the year in which the right is exercised, multiplied by (z) 12, if the right is exercised in 2010 or before, 11, if the right is exercised in 2011, or 10, if the right is exercised in 2012 or later; provided, that in no event will the product of (y) and (z), above, be less than $300,000,000.

Whitehall Acquisition

Pursuant to the Whitehall shareholders’ agreement, Polmos Bialystok has the right to purchase, and the other shareholder has the right to require Polmos Bialystok to purchase, all (but not less than all) of the shares of Whitehall capital stock held by such shareholder. Either of these rights may be exercised at any time, subject, in certain circumstances, to the consent of third parties. The aggregate price that the Company would be required to pay in the event either of these rights is exercised will fall within a range determined based on Whitehall’s EBIT as well as the EBIT of certain related businesses, during two separate periods: (1) the period from January 1, 2008 through the end of the year in which the right is exercised, and (2) the two full financial years immediately preceding the end of the year in which the right is exercised. Subject to certain limited exceptions, the exercise price will be (A) no less than the future value as of the date of exercise of $42.7 million and (B) no more than the future value as of the date of exercise of $99.7 million.

Russian Alcohol Group Acquisition

Pursuant to the RAG shareholders’ agreement, the Company has the right to purchase, and Cayco has the right to require the Company to purchase, all (but not less than all) of the outstanding capital stock of a majority-owned subsidiary of Cayco held by Cayco, which in either case would give the Company indirect control over RAG. These rights may be exercised at various times as set forth in the shareholders’ agreement.

The price the Company would be required to pay in the event either of these rights is exercised will be equal to the adjusted equity value of RAG, determined based on EBITDA multiplied by the product of Cayco’s ownership percentage and 14.05, 13.14, or 12.80, depending on when the right is exercised, less the debt of RAG plus certain adjustments for cash and working capital. That price, however, in the case of the Company’s right, is subject to a floor equal to the total amount invested by Lion Capital in Cayco multiplied by 2.05 or 2.20, depending on when the right is exercised (in either case less any dividends or distributions actually received). RAG has indebtedness in place that, following any exercise of the RAG purchase or sale right described above, would continue to be serviced in accordance with its terms or refinanced or retired. The current amount of such indebtedness is approximately $170 million. In the event that the Company elects to refinance or retire this indebtedness, or acquire the capital stock of Copecresto, Whitehall or Cayco’s subsidiary pursuant to the rights described above, such transactions may be financed through additional sources of debt or equity funding.

Effects of Inflation and Foreign Currency Movements

Inflation in Poland is projected at 4.0% for 2008, compared to actual inflation of 2.5% in 2007.

Substantially all of Company’s operating cash flows and assets are denominated in Polish Zloty, Russian Ruble and Hungarian Forint. This means that the Company is exposed to translation movements both on its balance sheet and income statement. The impact

CENTRAL EUROPEAN DISTRIBUTION CORPORATION

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF

Amounts in tables expressed in thousands, except per share information

on working capital items is demonstrated on the cash flow statement as the movement in exchange on cash and cash equivalents. The impact on the income statement is by the movement of the average exchange rate used to restate the income statement from Polish Zloty and Hungarian Forint to U.S. Dollars. The amounts shown as exchange rate gains or losses on the face of the income statement relate only to realized gains or losses on transactions that are not denominated in Polish Zloty or Hungarian Forint.

As a result of the issuance of the Company’s Senior Secured Notes due 2012 of which €250 million are currently outstanding, we are exposed to foreign exchange movements. Movements in the EUR-Polish Zloty exchange rate will require us to revalue our liability on the Senior Secured Notes accordingly, the impact of which will be reflected in the results of the Company’s operations. Every one percent movement in the EUR-Polish Zloty exchange rate will have an approximate $3.8 million change in the valuation of the liability with the offsetting pre-tax gain or losses recorded in the profit and loss of the Company.

In order to manage the cash flow impact of foreign exchange changes, the Company has entered into certain hedge agreements. As of June 30, 2008, the Company had outstanding a hedge contract for a seven year interest rate swap agreement. The swap agreement exchanges a fixed Euro based coupon of 8%, with a variable Euro based coupon (IRS) based upon the six month Euribor rate plus a margin.

The average Zloty/Dollar exchange rate used to create our income statement appreciated by approximately 22% as compared to the same period in 2007. The actual period end Zloty/Dollar exchange rate used to create our balance sheet appreciated by approximately 13% as compared to Dec 31, 2007.

The proceeds of our $310 million Senior Convertible Notes have been on-lent to subsidiaries that have the Polish Zloty as the functional currency. Movements in the USD-Polish Zloty exchange rate will require us to revalue our liability on the Senior Convertible Notes accordingly, the impact of which will be reflected in the results of the Company’s operations. Every one percent movement in the USD-Polish Zloty exchange rate will have an approximate $3.0 million change in the valuation of the liability with the offsetting pre-tax gain or losses recorded in the profit and loss of the Company.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

General

The Company’s discussion and analysis of its financial condition and results of operations are based upon the Company’s consolidated financial statements which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The preparation of these financial statements requires the Company to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of net sales, expenses, assets and liabilities. The Company bases its estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions and conditions.

Goodwill and Intangibles

Following the introduction of SFAS 142, acquired goodwill is no longer amortized. Instead the Company assesses the recoverability of its goodwill at least once a year or whenever adverse events or changes in circumstances or business climate indicate that expected future cash flows (undiscounted and without interest charges) for individual business units may not be sufficient to support the recorded goodwill. If undiscounted cash flows are not sufficient to support the goodwill, an impairment charge would be recognized to reduce the carrying value of the goodwill based on the expected discounted cash flows of the business unit. No such charge has been considered necessary through the date of the accompanying financial statements. Intangibles are amortized over their effective useful life. In estimating fair value, management must make assumptions and projections regarding such items as future cash flows, future revenues, future earnings, and other factors. The assumptions used in the estimate of fair value are generally consistent with the past performance of each reporting unit and are also consistent with the projections and assumptions that are used in current operating plans. Such assumptions are subject to change as a result of changing economic and competitive conditions. If these estimates or their related assumptions change in the future, the Company may be required to record an impairment loss for the assets. The fair values calculated have been adjusted where applicable to reflect the tax impact upon disposal of the asset.

In connection with the Bols and Bialystok acquisitions, the Company has acquired trademark rights to various brands, which were capitalized as part of the purchase price allocation process. As these brands are well established they have been assessed to have an indefinite life. These trademarks rights will not be amortized; however, management assesses them at least once a year for impairment.

CENTRAL EUROPEAN DISTRIBUTION CORPORATION

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF

OPERATIONS

Amounts in tables expressed in thousands, except per share information

In connection with White Horse acquisition the Company has included in non-amortizable intangible assets the preliminary valuation of the Parliament trademark, which capitalized as part of the purchase price allocation process. As this brand is well established it has been assessed to have an indefinite life. This trademark right will not be amortized; however, management assesses it at least once a year for impairment.

The calculation of the impairment charge for goodwill and indefinite lived intangible assets, requires the use of estimates. The discount rate used for the calculation was 7.42%. Factoring in a deviation of 10% for the discount rate as compared to management’s estimate, there would still be no need for an impairment charge against goodwill.

Accounting for Business Combinations

The acquisition of businesses is an important element of the Company’s strategy. We account for our acquisitions under the purchase method of accounting in accordance with SFAS 141, Business Combinations, and allocate the assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on their estimated fair values at the acquisition date. The determination of the values of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed, as well as associated asset useful lives, requires management to make estimates. The Company’s acquisitions typically result in goodwill and other intangible assets; the value and estimated life of those assets may affect the amount of future period amortization expense for intangible assets with finite lives as well as possible impairment charges that may be incurred.

The calculation of purchase price allocation requires judgment on the part of management in determining the valuation of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed.

Derivative Instruments

The Company is exposed to market movements from changes in foreign currency exchange rates that could affect the Company’s results of operations and financial condition. In accordance with SFAS 133, Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities, the Company recognizes all derivatives as either assets or liabilities on the balance sheet and measures those instruments at fair value.

The fair values of the Company’s derivative instruments can change with fluctuations in interest rates and/or currency rates and are expected to offset changes in the values of the underlying exposures. The Company’s derivative instruments are held to hedge economic exposures. The Company follows internal policies to manage interest rate and foreign currency risks, including limitations on derivative market-making or other speculative activities.

At the inception of a transaction the Company documents the relationship between the hedging instruments and hedged items, as well as its risk management objective. This process includes linking all derivatives designated to specific firm commitments or forecasted transitions. The Company also documents its assessment, both at the hedge inception and on an ongoing basis, of whether the derivative financial instruments that are used in hedging transactions are highly effective in offsetting changes in fair value or cash flows of hedged items.

Share Based Payments

As of January 1, 2006, the Company adopted SFAS No. 123(R) “Share-Based Payment” requiring the recognition of compensation expense in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income related to the fair value of its employee share-based options. SFAS No. 123(R) revises SFAS No. 123 “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation” and supersedes APB Opinion No. 25 “Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees”. SFAS No. 123(R) is supplemented by SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin (“SAB”) No. 107 “Share-Based Payment”. SAB No. 107 expresses the SEC staff’s views regarding the interaction between SFAS No. 123(R) and certain SEC rules and regulations including the valuation of share-based payments arrangements.

Grant-date fair value of stock options is estimated using a lattice-binomial option-pricing model. We recognize compensation cost for awards over the vesting period. The majority of our stock options have a vesting period between one to three years.

See Note 14 to our Consolidated Financial Statements for more information regarding stock-based compensation.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

In September 2006, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 157 “Fair Value Measurements” (“SFAS 157”). SFAS 157 clarifies the principle that fair value should be based on the assumptions market participants would use

Amounts in tables expressed in thousands, except per share information

when pricing an asset or liability and establishes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the information used to develop those assumptions. Under the standard, fair value measurements would be separately disclosed by level within the fair value hierarchy. SFAS 157 is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007 and interim periods within those fiscal years, with early adoption permitted. The Company has implemented certain provisions of this pronouncement and does not expect any material impact on the consolidated financial statements when SFAS 157 is fully implemented.

In February 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 159, “The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities—including an amendment of FASB Statement No. 115.” SFAS No. 159 permits entities to choose to measure many financial instruments and certain other items at fair value. Unrealized gains and losses on items for which the fair value option has been elected will be recognized in earnings at each subsequent reporting date. SFAS No. 159 is effective for the Company January 1, 2008. The implementation of SFAS 159, did not have any material impact on the consolidated financial statements.

In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 141-R, “Business Combinations”. This Statement applies prospectively to business combinations for which the acquisition date is on or after the beginning of the first annual reporting period beginning on or after December 15, 2008, meaning business combinations in the year ending December 31, 2009 for the Company. The objective of this Statement is to improve the relevance, representational faithfulness, and comparability of the information that a reporting entity provides in its financial reports about a business combination and its effects.

In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS 160, “Noncontrolling Interests in Consolidated Financial Statements – an amendment of ARB No. 51”. This Statement is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning on or after December 15, 2008, which for the Company is the year ending December 31, 2009 and the interim periods within the fiscal year. The objective of this Statement is to improve the relevance, comparability, and transparency of the financial information that a reporting entity provides in its consolidated financial statements. This standard currently does not impact us as we have full controlling interest of all of our subsidiaries, however this standard may impact the treatment of future acquisitions.

In March 2008, the FASB issued SFAS No. 161, “Disclosures about Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities – An Amendment of SFAS No. 133”. SFAS 161 seeks to improve financial reporting for derivative instruments and hedging activities by requiring enhanced disclosures regarding the impact on financial position, financial performance, and cash flows. To achieve this increased transparency, SFAS 161 requires (1) the disclosure of the fair value of derivative instruments and gains and losses in a tabular format; (2) the disclosure of derivative features that are credit risk-related; and (3) cross-referencing within the footnotes. SFAS 161 is effective for us on January 1, 2009. We are in the process of evaluating the new disclosure requirements under SFAS 161.

In May 2008, the FASB issued FSP APB 14-1, which impacts the accounting treatment for convertible debt instruments that allow for either mandatory or optional cash settlements. FSP APB 14-1 will impact the accounting associated with our $310.0 million senior convertible notes. This FSP will require us to recognize additional non-cash interest expense based on the market rate for similar debt instruments without the conversion feature. Furthermore, it requires recognizing interest expense in prior periods pursuant to the retrospective accounting treatment. FSP APB 14-1 will become effective beginning in our first quarter of 2009 and is required to be applied retrospectively to all presented periods, as applicable. We are currently evaluating the impact on our financial statements of applying the provisions of FSP APB 14-1.

ITEM 3: QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

Our operations are conducted primarily in Poland and Russia and our functional currencies are primarily the Polish Zloty and Russian Ruble and the reporting currency is the U.S. Dollar. Our financial instruments consist mainly of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable, inventories, bank loans, overdraft facilities and long-term debt. All of the monetary assets represented by these financial instruments are located in Poland. Consequently, they are subject to currency translation movements when reporting in U.S. Dollars.

If the U.S. Dollar increases in value against the Polish Zloty or Russian Ruble, the value in U.S. Dollars of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses originally recorded in Polish Zloty or Russian Ruble will decrease. Conversely, if the U.S. Dollar decreases in value against the Polish Zloty or Russian Ruble, the value in U.S. Dollars of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses originally recorded in Polish Zloty or Russian Ruble will increase. Thus, increases and decreases in the value of the U.S. Dollar can have a material impact on the value in U.S. Dollars of our non-U.S. Dollar assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, even if the value of these items has not changed in their original currency.

Our commercial foreign exchange exposure mainly arises from the fact that substantially all of our revenues are denominated in Polish Zloty, our Senior Secured Notes are denominated in Euros and our Senior Convertible Notes are denominated in US Dollars. This debt has been on-lent to the operating subsidiary level in Poland, thus exposing the Company to movements in the EUR/Polish Zloty and USD/Polish Zloty exchange rate. Every one percent movement in the EUR-Polish Zloty exchange rate will have an approximate $3.8 million change in the valuation of the liability with the offsetting pre-tax gain or losses recorded in the profit and loss of the Company. Every one percent movement in the USD-Polish Zloty exchange rate will have an approximate $3.0 million change in the valuation of the liability with the offsetting pre-tax gain or losses recorded in the profit and loss of the Company.

As a result of the remaining outstanding €250 million Senior Secured Notes and our $310 million of Senior Convertible Notes which have been on-lent to Polish Zloty operating companies, we are exposed to foreign exchange movements. Movements in the EUR/Polish Zloty and USD/Polish Zloty exchange rate will require us to revalue our liability accordingly, the impact of which will be reflected in the results of the Company’s operations.

In order to manage the cash flow impact of foreign exchange changes, the Company has entered into certain hedge agreements. As of June 30, 2008, the Company had outstanding a hedge contract for a seven year interest rate swap agreement hedging 250.2 million EUR of the Senior Secured Notes. The swap agreement exchanges a fixed Euro based coupon of 8%, with a variable Euro based coupon (IRS) based upon the 6 month Euribor rate plus a margin. Any changes in Euribor will result in a change in the interest expense. Each basis point move in Euribor will result in an increase or a decrease in annual interest expense of €25,020.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Disclosure Controls and Procedures. Disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15(d)-15(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) refer to the controls and other procedures of a company that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports that it files or submits under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms. A company’s internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (i) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company; (ii) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and (iii) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the company’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.

Based upon the evaluation of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this report, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective at the reasonable assurance level.

Inherent Limitations in Internal Control over Financial Reporting. The Company’s management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, does not expect that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures or internal control over financial reporting will prevent all errors and all fraud. A control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met. Because of the limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within the Company have been detected. Further, the design of any control system is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions. Because of these inherent limitations in a cost-effective control system, misstatements due to error or fraud may occur and not be detected. Accordingly, the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures are designed to provide reasonable assurance that the controls and procedures will meet their objectives.

36

Changes to Internal Control over Financial Reporting. The Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer conclude that, during the most recent fiscal quarter, there have been no changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal controls over financial reporting.
