Forward-Looking Statements
 
This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, including “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” in Item 2 of Part I of this Quarterly Report, includes or may include “forward-looking statements.” All statements included herein, other than statements of historical fact, may constitute forward-looking statements. In some cases you can identify forward-looking statements by terminology such as “may,” “should” or “could.” Generally, the words “anticipates,” “believes,” “expects,” “intends,” “estimates,” “projects,” “plans” and similar expressions identify forward-looking statements. Although CRC Health Corporation (“CRC”) believes that the expectations reflected in such forward-looking statements are reasonable, it can give no assurance that such expectations will prove to be correct. Important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements include, among others, the following factors: changes in government reimbursement for CRC’s services; reductions in the availability of governmental and private financial aid for CRC’s youth treatment programs; CRC’s substantial indebtedness; changes in applicable regulations or a government investigation or assertion that CRC has violated applicable regulations; attempts by local residents to force the closure or relocation of CRC’s facilities; the potentially difficult, unsuccessful or costly integration of acquired operations and future acquisitions; the potentially difficult, unsuccessful or costly opening and operating of new treatment programs; the possibility that commercial payors for CRC’s services may undertake future cost containment initiatives; the limited number of national suppliers of methadone used in CRC’s outpatient treatment clinics; the failure to maintain established relationships or cultivate new relationships with patient referral sources; shortages in qualified healthcare workers; natural disasters such as hurricanes, earthquakes and floods; competition that limits CRC’s ability to grow; the potentially costly implementation of new information systems to comply with federal and state initiatives relating to patient privacy, security of medical information and electronic transactions; the potentially costly implementation of accounting and other management systems and resources in response to financial reporting and other requirements; the loss of key members of CRC’s management; claims asserted against CRC or lack of adequate available insurance; and certain restrictive covenants in CRC’s debt documents and other risks that are described herein, including but not limited to the items discussed in “Risk Factors” in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2007 filed on April 7, 2008, and that are otherwise described from time to time in CRC’s Securities and Exchange Commission filings after this Quarterly Report. CRC assumes no obligation and does not intend to update these forward-looking statements.

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
 
Basis of Presentation and Principles of Consolidation—These interim, unaudited financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“GAAP”) and pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) applicable for interim financial information. The Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of CRC Health Corporation and its consolidated subsidiaries. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
 
In the opinion of management, these unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments, necessary to present fairly the financial position of the Company, its results of operations, and its cash flows. These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and the notes thereto for the year ended December 31, 2007.
 
Use of EstimatesPreparation of financial statements in accordance with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ materially from those estimates.
 
Recent Accounting Pronouncements— In September 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 157, Fair Value Measurements (“SFAS 157”). SFAS 157 defines and establishes a framework for measuring fair value and expands related disclosures, but it does not require any new fair value measurements.
 
SFAS 157 is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007. However, effective February 6, 2008, the FASB deferred the effective date of SFAS 157 for one year for non financial assets and non financial liabilities that are recognized or disclosed at fair value in the financial statements on a nonrecurring basis.
 
The Company adopted the financial asset and liability provisions of SFAS 157 on January 1, 2008. The Company has not adopted the non-financial asset and non-financial liability provisions of SFAS 157. See Note 9 for additional information including the effects of adoption on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements.
 
In February 2007, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 159, The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities—Including an amendment to FASB Statement No. 115 (“SFAS 159”). SFAS 159 expands the use of fair value accounting but does not affect existing standards which require assets or liabilities to be carried at fair value. Under SFAS 159, a company may elect to use fair value to measure accounts and loans receivable, available-for-sale and held-to-maturity securities, equity method investments, accounts payable, guarantees and issued debt. Other eligible items include firm commitments for financial instruments that would otherwise not be recognized at inception and non-cash warranty obligations where a warrantor is permitted to pay a third party to provide the warranty goods or services. If fair value is elected, any upfront costs and fees related to the item must be recognized in earnings and cannot be deferred, e.g., debt issue costs. The fair value election is irrevocable and may generally be made on an instrument-by-instrument basis, even if a company has
similar instruments that it elects not to measure at fair value. The Company adopted SFAS 159 on January 1, 2008. Upon adoption and for the six months ended June 30, 2008, the Company did not elect any fair value options under the provisions of SFAS 159.
 
In December 2007, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 141 (revised 2007), Business Combinations (“SFAS 141(R)”). SFAS 141(R) establishes principles and requirements for how an acquirer recognizes and measures in its financial statements the identifiable assets acquired, the liabilities assumed, any noncontrolling interest in the acquiree and the goodwill acquired. SFAS 141(R) also establishes disclosure requirements to enable the evaluation of the nature
 
6

and financial effects of the business combination. SFAS 141(R) is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2008, and will be adopted by the Company in the first quarter of 2009. The Company is currently evaluating the potential impact, if any, of the adoption of SFAS 141(R) on its financial statements.
 
In December 2007, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 160, Noncontrolling Interests in Consolidated Financial Statements—an amendment of Accounting Research Bulletin No. 51 (“SFAS 160”). SFAS 160 establishes accounting and reporting standards for ownership interests in subsidiaries held by parties other than the parent, the amount of consolidated net income attributable to the parent and to the noncontrolling interest, changes in a parent’s ownership interest, and the valuation of retained noncontrolling equity investments when a subsidiary is deconsolidated. SFAS 160 also establishes disclosure requirements that clearly identify and distinguish between the interests of the parent and the interests of the noncontrolling owners inclusive of requiring retroactive adoption of the presentation and disclosure requirements for existing minority interests. All other requirements shall be applied prospectively. SFAS 160 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2008. The Company is currently evaluating the potential impact of the adoption of SFAS 160 on its financial statements.
 
In March 2008, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 161, Disclosures about Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities, an amendment of FASB Statement No. 133 (“SFAS 161”). SFAS 161 requires enhanced disclosures about an entity’s derivative and hedging activities. These enhanced disclosures will discuss (a) how and why an entity uses derivative instruments, (b) how derivative instruments and related hedged items are accounted for under Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 133, Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities (“SFAS 133”) and its related interpretations, and (c) how derivative instruments and related hedged items affect an entity’s financial position, financial performance, and cash flows. SFAS 161 is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2008, with earlier adoption allowed. The Company is currently evaluating the potential impact of the adoption of SFAS 161 on its financial statements.

GOODWILL AND INTANGIBLE ASSETS
 
For the quarter beginning October 1, 2007, the Company realigned its operating segments to better fit its organizational and operating strategy around three divisions: recovery, healthy living and youth (see Note 15). In conjunction with this change, certain operating units within its youth and recovery division were transferred to its healthy living division. As a result, the corresponding goodwill of those operating units was allocated to the healthy living division. Under the provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 131, Disclosures about Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information ("SFAS 131"), the Company is reporting healthy living under "corporate/other."
 
 
Changes to goodwill by reportable segment for the six months ended June 30, 2008 are as follows (in thousands):

Goodwill related to earnouts
 
Certain acquisition agreements acquired in the purchase of Aspen Education Group contain contingent earnout provisions that provide for additional consideration to be paid to the sellers if the results of the acquired entity's operations exceed negotiated benchmarks. During the six months ended June 30, 2008, the youth segment recorded additional goodwill of $0.6 million as a result of one of the entities exceeding the benchmarks.
 
Goodwill Adjustments
 
The goodwill adjustments are for prior acquisitions and relate primarily to revisions of the original estimates.
 
Other Adjustments
 
Subsequent to the issuance of the Company's 2007 financial statements, the Company determined that errors were made in the allocation of goodwill attributable to the Company's segments.  Goodwill as of December 31, 2007 has been reduced by $3.9 million for the Company's recovery division and has been increased by $3.9 million for the youth division from amounts previously reported.   There is no other effect on the Company's consolidated financial statements related to the above disclosures.

FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
 
 
Derivatives -Interest Rate Swaps
 
As of June 30, 2008, the Company had an interest rate swap agreement which converted $80 million of its floating-rate debt to fixed-rate debt at 4.99%.  As of June 30, 2008, the interest rate swap has not been designated as a qualifying hedge under the provisions of SFAS 133. On July 1, 2008 (the “off-market” date) the Company designated the interest rate swap as a qualifying SFAS 133 hedge.  In accordance with the Company’s risk management policy, future changes in the fair value of the interest rate swap will be recognized in other comprehensive income (“OCI”) for the remaining contractual life of the interest rate swap.  Accumulated ineffectiveness as of the off-market date will be amortized over the contractual life of the interest rate swap. Additionally, future ineffectiveness in hedging activity related to the interest swap, if any, will be reclassified to earnings in the period during which the ineffectiveness is measured.
 
On June 30, 2008, as provided for in the Credit Agreement and retained in the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement and Amendment No. 2, the Company entered into an interest rate swap agreement to provide for interest rate protection for an aggregate notional amount of $200.0 million. The effective date of the agreement is June 30, 2008 and has a maturity date of July 1, 2011.  The interest rate swap agreement is designated as a hedge under SFAS 133.  Under the interest rate swap, the Company receives an interest rate equal to 3-month LIBOR and in exchange pays a fixed rate of 3.875% on the $200.0 million.
 
The fair value of the Company’s interest rate swaps and their effects on OCI, if any, are discussed in Note 9 and in Note 10.

FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS
 
The Company adopted SFAS 157 on January 1, 2008. SFAS 157 applies to all assets and liabilities that are being measured and reported on a fair value basis. As defined in SFAS 157, fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. SFAS 157 also establishes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value. The fair value hierarchy, under the provisions of SFAS 157, also requires an entity to maximize the use of quoted market prices and minimize the use of unobservable inputs. An asset or liability’s level is based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. The statement requires that assets and liabilities carried at fair value be classified and disclosed in one of the following three categories:
 
Level 1:
Quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities;
   
Level 2:
Inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are either directly or indirectly observable;
   
Level 3:
Unobservable inputs in which little or no market activity exists, therefore requiring an entity to develop its own assumptions about the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing.
 
The Company values its interest rate swaps using indicative values based on mid-market levels and terminal values which are derived using proprietary models based upon well recognized financial principles and reasonable estimates about relevant future market conditions. These instruments are allocated to the Level 2 on the SFAS 157 fair value hierarchy because the critical inputs into these models, including the relevant yield curves and the known contractual terms of the instrument, are readily available. As of June 30, 2008, the aggregate fair value of the Company’s interest rate swap agreements was a liability of $2.0 million. For its interest rate swap agreement executed February 28, 2006, the Company recognized a gain of approximately $1.6
 
10

million and an immaterial amount of loss for the three and six months ended June 30, 2008, respectively, and a gain of $0.8 million and $0.4 million for the three and six months ended on June 30, 2007, respectively, and is recorded in other income on the condensed consolidated statements of operations.   The Company recognized a loss of approximately $0.4 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2008, respectively, on its interest rate swap agreement executed on June 30, 2008 and is recorded in other comprehensive income.

Other comprehensive income includes other gains and losses affecting equity that are excluded from net income.  The components of other comprehensive income consist of changes in the fair value of derivative financial instruments.

COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
 
Indemnifications—The Company provides for indemnification of directors, officers and other persons in accordance with limited liability agreements, certificates of incorporation, bylaws, articles of association or similar organizational documents, as the case may be. The Company maintains directors’ and officers’ insurance which should enable the Company to recover a portion of any future amounts paid.
 
In addition to the above, from time to time the Company provides standard representations and warranties to counterparties in contracts in connection with business dispositions and acquisitions and also provide indemnities that protect the counterparties to these contracts in the event they suffer damages as a result of a breach of such representations and warranties or in certain other circumstances relating to such sales or acquisitions.
 
While the Company’s future obligations under certain agreements may contain limitations on liability for indemnification, other agreements do not contain such limitations and under such agreements it is not possible to predict the maximum potential amount of future payments due to the conditional nature of the Company’s obligations and the unique facts and circumstances involved.
 
Litigation—The Company is involved in litigation and regulatory investigations arising in the course of business. After consultation with legal counsel, management estimates that these matters will be resolved without material adverse effect on the Company’s future financial position or results from operations and cash flows.
 
Earnouts— Certain acquisition agreements acquired in the purchase of Aspen Education Group contain contingent earnout provisions that provide for additional consideration to be paid to the sellers if the results of the acquired entity’s operations exceed negotiated benchmarks. Additionally, future acquisitions may contain earnout provisions which would require the Company to pay amounts beyond the original purchase consideration upon satisfaction of defined performance benchmarks. The Company’s policy is to accrue the earnouts as they are earned and issue periodic payments on the earnouts through a combination of notes and cash payments.

STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION
 
Description of Share-Based Plans

2006 Executive Incentive Plan, 2006 Management Incentive Plan and 2007 Incentive Plan

On February 6, 2006, the Group adopted the 2006 Executive Incentive Plan (the “Executive Plan”) and the 2006 Management Incentive Plan (the “Management Plan”) and on September 7, 2007, the Group adopted the 2007 Incentive Plan (the “Incentive Plan”). The Company refers to the Executive Plan, Management Plan and Incentive Plan collectively as the “Plans”. The Plans provide for options to purchase Group stock by the Company’s key employees, directors, consultants and advisors. Options granted under the Plans may be either incentive or non-incentive stock options.
 
11

 As of June 30, 2008, only non-incentive options (non-qualified under Internal Revenue Code Section 422) have been awarded under the Plans. Options granted under the Plans represent the right to purchase units of Group shares. One unit consists of nine shares of class A and one share of class L common stock of the Group.

Options under the Plans may be granted with a term of up to ten years at an exercise price generally not less than fair market value of the shares subject to the award, determined as of the award date. In the case that the incentive stock options are granted to a 10% shareholder, an exercise price shall not be less than 110% of the fair market value of the shares subject to the award at the grant date. All options granted under the Plans generally expire ten years from the date of grant.
 
Options granted under the Executive Plan and Incentive Plan vest in three tranches as follows: tranche 1 options vest and become exercisable at the rate of 20% in one year from the date of grant and 10% on each six-month period thereafter or, if earlier, 100% on a change of control as defined in the Executive and Incentive plans; tranche 2 options vest and become exercisable upon achievement of certain performance conditions and a market condition, as defined in the Executive and Incentive plans; tranche 3 options vest and become exercisable over a five-year period upon achievement of performance conditions or alternatively upon achievement of certain performance conditions and a market condition, as defined in the Executive and Incentive plans. Tranche 1 options represent 50% of an option grant under the Executive and Incentive plans and tranches 2 and 3 options each represent 25% of the options granted under the Executive and Incentive plans.

Options granted under the Management Plan vest and become exercisable over five years as follows: 20% in one year from the date of grant and 10% on each six-month period thereafter or, if earlier, 100% on a change of control, as defined in the Management Plan.

In September 2007, the Group amended the Executive Plan to provide that any unvested tranche 3 options—options that vest over a five year period upon the Company’s earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (“EBITDA”) reaching certain levels—would vest upon the first anniversary of an initial public offering, each six month anniversary thereafter or the date of a sale transaction if the value per unit (nine shares of Class A and one share of Class L) equals or exceeds $360 on such date. In conjunction with this modification the Company evaluated the impact on modified awards and determined that the incremental compensation cost was immaterial.

During the six months ended June 30, 2008, the Group’s board of directors increased the number of share units available under the Plans by 20,000 units. Consequently, at June 30, 2008, a maximum of 5,734,054 shares of Class A common stock of the Group and 637,117 shares of Class L common stock of the Group may be granted under the Plans. Additional fully vested options under the Executive Plan of 1,184,809 shares of Class A common stock of the Group and 131,647 shares of Class L common stock of the Group were issued in connection with rolled over options at the time of the acquisition of the Company by investment funds managed by Bain Capital Partners, LLC in February 2006 and the acquisition of Aspen Education Group by the Company in November 2006.

Valuation of Stock-Based Awards

The Company estimates the fair value of stock options granted using the Black Scholes option valuation model for Management Plan grants, tranche 1 and 3 Executive Plan grants, and tranche 1 Incentive Plan grants. The Company uses the Monte Carlo simulation approach to a binomial model to determine the fair value of tranche 2 and 3 Incentive Plan grants and tranche 2 Executive Plan grants. The estimated fair value of awards granted is based upon certain assumptions, including probability of achievement of market conditions for certain Executive Plan and Incentive Plan awards, stock price, expected term, expected volatility, dividend yield, and a risk-free interest rate. The weighted average grant date fair value of units granted during the three months ended June 30, 2008 and 2007 were $55.45 and $54.55 per unit, respectively.

The following assumptions were used to calculate the weighted average grant date fair values of employee stock options for the periods presented below:

Expected term used in the Black Scholes valuation model represents the period that the Company’s stock options are expected to be outstanding and is determined based on historical experience of similar awards, giving consideration to the contractual terms of the stock options, vesting schedules and expectation of future employee behavior as influenced by changes to the terms of its stock option grants.
 
 
 
Expected volatility utilized for the units granted during the period is based on the historical volatility of comparable public companies for periods corresponding to expected term of the awards.
 
 
 
No dividends are expected to be paid over the option term.
 
 
 
The risk-free rate used for options granted is based on the implied yield on U.S. Treasury constant maturities issued with a term equal to the expected term of the options.
 

Stock-Based Compensation Expense

Options granted under the Plans are for the purchase of Group stock by the Company’s key employees, directors, consultants and advisors. Stock based compensation expense related to the stock options granted by the Group is being recorded on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements, as substantially all grants have been made to employees of the Company. Under the provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123 (revised 2004),  Share-Based Payment  (“SFAS 123(R)”), the Company recognizes stock based compensation costs net of an estimated forfeiture rate and recognizes the compensation costs for only those shares expected to vest on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period of the award. Stock option compensation expense related to employee stock options granted under the Plans was $1.1 million and $1.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2008 and 2007, respectively, and $2.3 million and $2.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2008 and 2007, respectively.  Stock-based compensation expense is recorded within salaries and benefits on the condensed consolidated statements of operations. The total income tax benefit recognized in the condensed consolidated statement of operations for stock option-based compensation expense was $0.5 million and $0.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2008 and 2007, respectively, and $1.0 million and $0.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2008 and 2007, respectively.

As of June 30, 2008, $15.4 million of total unrecognized compensation, net of estimated forfeitures of $0.8 million, is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 2.98 years if all performance conditions are met under the provisions of the
 
13

plans. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2008, 51,802 and 309,651 shares vested with an aggregate grant date fair value of $0.3 million and $1.7 million, respectively.

Stock Option Activity under the Plans

During the six months ended June 30, 2008, the Group granted units, which represent option shares to purchase Class A common stock of the Group and option shares to purchase Class L common stock of the Group. Activity under the Plans for the six months ended June 30, 2008 is summarized below:

As of June 30, 2008, the aggregate intrinsic value of share options outstanding, exercisable, and outstanding and expected to be exercisable was $24.6 million, $15.8 million and $23.4 million, respectively. The aggregate intrinsic value is calculated as the difference between the exercise price of the underlying awards and the fair value of the Group’s shares as of June 30, 2008.

The Group recorded an immaterial amount of cash received for options exercised by certain non-director employees who terminated their employment with the Company. All cash received and paid related to the option exercise and Class A and L Common Stock retirement is reflected within the Company’s financial statements as Capital Contribution from Parent. The aggregate intrinsic value of share options exercised under equity compensation plans for the three months ended June 30, 2008 was immaterial. For the six months ended June 30, 2008, the aggregate intrinsic value of share options exercised under equity compensation plans was $0.3 million.

RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
 
In connection with the acquisition of the Company by investment funds managed by Bain Capital Partners, LLC (“Bain Merger”), the Company and its security holders entered into a stockholders agreement. The stockholders agreement contains agreements among the parties with respect to the election of the Company’s directors and the directors of the Parent, restrictions on the issuance or transfer of shares, including tag-along rights and drag-along rights, other special corporate governance provisions (including the right to approve various corporate actions), registration rights (including customary indemnification provisions) and call options. Three of the Company’s directors are employees of Bain Capital Partners, LLC, the Parent’s principal shareholder.
 
Upon the consummation of the Bain Merger, the Company entered into a management agreement with an affiliate of Bain Capital Partners, LLC pursuant to which such entity or its affiliates provide management services. Pursuant to such agreement, an affiliate of Bain Capital Partners, LLC receives an aggregate annual management fee of $2.0 million and reimbursement for out-of-pocket expenses incurred in connection with the Bain Merger prior to the closing of the Bain Merger and in connection with the provision of services pursuant to the agreement. The Company under this agreement paid management fees approximating $0.5 million during each of the three months ended June 30, 2008 and 2007 and approximately $1.1 million for the each of the six months ended June 30, 2008 and 2007, which is included in supplies, facilities and other operating costs.
 
14

The Company leases buildings from certain employees. Such related party leases are due and payable on a monthly basis on similar terms and conditions as the Company’s other leasing arrangements.
 
Two directors receive compensation for their services to the Company as consultants.

CONDENSED CONSOLIDATING FINANCIAL INFORMATION
 
As of June 30, 2008, the Company had $200.0 million aggregate principal amount of the 10.75% Senior Subordinated Notes due 2016 (“the Notes”) outstanding. The Notes are fully and unconditionally guaranteed, jointly and severally on an unsecured senior subordinated basis, by the Company’s wholly owned subsidiaries.
 
The following supplemental tables present condensed consolidating balance sheets for the Company and its subsidiary guarantors as of June 30, 2008 and December 31, 2007, the condensed consolidating statements of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2008 and 2007, and the condensed consolidating statements of cash flows for the six months ended June 30, 2008 and 2007.
 
For the year 2007, management determined that allocations including income tax accounts and intercompany management fee revenue should be allocated to the parent and the investment in the Company’s subsidiaries should be presented using the equity method in the parent column of the consolidating financial statements. As a result, the consolidating balance sheet for the year ended December 31, 2007 and the consolidating statement of operations and consolidating statement of cash flows for the three and six months ended June 30, 2007 have been restated from previously reported amounts to reflect the allocations and the investment in subsidiaries using the equity method instead of the cost basis method. There is no impact on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements as the allocations and investment in subsidiaries are eliminated in consolidation.

SEGMENT INFORMATION
 
Effective October 1, 2007, the Company realigned its operations and internal organizational structure. In accordance with the criteria of SFAS 131, the Company has three identified operating segments under the new organizational structure: recovery division, youth division and healthy living division. For segment reporting purposes, the Company has identified two reportable segments: recovery and youth. The Company evaluated the healthy living division for segment reporting under the provisions of SFAS 131 and determined that this segment does not meet the quantitative thresholds for separate disclosure and therefore is not a reportable segment. The healthy living division is combined with corporate/other for the purposes of segment reporting. All periods presented have been restated to give effect to the change in reportable segments.
 
Reportable segments are based upon the Company’s internal organizational structure, the manner in which operations are managed and on the level at which the Company’s chief operating decision-maker allocates resources. The Company’s chief operating decision-maker is its Chief Executive Officer. The financial information used by the Company’s chief operating decision-maker includes net revenue, operating expenses, income (loss) from operations, total assets and capital expenditures.
 
The Company’s reportable segments are as follows:
 
Recovery—The recovery segment specializes in the treatment of chemical dependency and other behavioral health disorders both on an inpatient residential basis and on an outpatient basis. Services offered in this segment include: inpatient/residential care, partial/day treatment, intensive outpatient groups, therapeutic living/half-way house environments, aftercare centers and detoxification. As of June 30, 2008, the recovery segment provided substance abuse and behavioral health services to patients at 106 facilities located in 22 states.
 
Youth—The youth segment provides a wide variety of therapeutic programs through settings and solutions that match individual needs with the appropriate learning and therapeutic environment. As of June 30, 2008, the youth segment operated 29 educational facilities in 10 states and its offerings include boarding schools, experiential outdoor education programs and summer camps.
 
Corporate/Other—In addition to the two reportable segments as described above, the Company has activities classified as corporate/other which represent revenue and expenses associated with eGetgoing, an online internet treatment option, certain corporate-level operating general and administrative costs (i.e., expenses associated with the corporate offices in Cupertino, California, which provides management, financial, human resources and information system support), stock option-based compensation expenses that are not allocated to the segments, and the healthy living division.
 
The healthy living division provides treatment services for eating disorders and obesity, each a related behavioral disorder that may be effectively treated through a combination of medical, psychological and social treatment programs. As of June 30, 2008, the healthy living division operated 16 facilities in eight states and one facility in the United Kingdom.
 
Major Customers—No single customer represented 10% or more of the Company’s total net revenue in any period presented.
 
Geographic Information—The Company’s business operations are primarily in the United States.
 
As discussed in Note 5, there were goodwill adjustments for prior acquisitions that relate primarily to revisions of the original estimates, which affected goodwill allocation between the recovery division and youth division segments.  These adjustments affect the segments’ total assets as of December 31, 2007.  There is no effect on the Company’s consolidated balance sheet, statement of operations, or statement of cash flows for 2007 or for 2008.

The following discussion should be read in conjunction with the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and the related notes that appear elsewhere in this Quarterly Report.
 
Unless the context otherwise requires, in this management’s discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations, the terms “our company,” “we,” “us,” “the Company” and “our” refer to CRC Health Corporation and its consolidated subsidiaries.
 
OVERVIEW
 
We are a leading provider of substance abuse treatment services and youth treatment services in the United States. We also provide treatment services for other addiction diseases and behavioral disorders such as eating disorders. We deliver our services through our three divisions, the recovery division, the youth division and the healthy living division. Our recovery division provides our substance abuse and behavioral disorder treatment services through our residential treatment facilities and outpatient treatment clinics. Our youth division provides educational programs for underachieving young people through residential schools and wilderness programs. Our healthy living division provides treatment services through its adolescent and adult weight management programs and its eating disorder facilities.
 
We have three operating segments: recovery division, youth division and healthy living division. However, for the purposes of segment reporting and discussion, we combine healthy living division with our corporate/other reporting segment because the healthy living division does not currently meet the quantitative thresholds for separate disclosure (see Note 15 to the condensed consolidated financial statements). As of June 30, 2008, our recovery division, which operates the 28 inpatient and 78 outpatient facilities in 22 states, provides treatment services to patients suffering from chronic addiction related diseases and related behavioral disorders. As of June 30, 2008, our recovery division treated approximately 28,000 patients per day. As of June 30, 2008, our youth division, which operates 29 programs in 10 states, provides a wide variety of therapeutic and educational programs for underachieving young people. Our healthy living division, which operates 16 facilities in eight states and one facility in the United Kingdom, provides eating disorder and weight management services. Other activities classified as “corporate/other” represent revenue and expenses associated with eGetgoing, an online internet treatment option, and general and administrative expenses (i.e., expenses associated with our corporate offices in Cupertino, California, which provides management, financial, human resource and information system support) and stock option-based compensation expense that are not allocated to the segments.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
 
We generate revenue by providing substance abuse treatment services and youth treatment services in the United States. We also generate revenue by providing treatment services for other specialized behavioral disorders such as eating disorders. Revenue is recognized when rehabilitation and treatment services are provided to a patient. Client service revenue is reported at the estimated net realizable amounts from clients, third-party payors and others for services rendered. Revenue under third-party payor agreements is subject to audit and retroactive adjustment. Provisions for estimated third-party payor settlements are provided for in the period the related services are rendered and adjusted in future periods as final settlements are determined. Revenue for educational services provided to youth consists primarily of tuition, enrollment fees, alumni services and ancillary charges. Tuition revenue and ancillary charges are recognized based on contracted monthly/daily rates as services are rendered. The enrollment fees for service contracts that are charged upfront are deferred and recognized over the average student length of stay, approximately ten months. Alumni fees revenue represents non-refundable upfront fees for post graduation services and these fees are deferred and recognized systematically over the contracted life, which is twelve months. During the three months ended June 30, 2008 and 2007,we generated 84.5% and 86.4% of our net revenue from non-governmental sources, including 68.8% and 71.4% from self payors, respectively, and 15.7% and 15.0% from commercial payors, respectively. During the six months ended June 30, 2008 and 2007, we generated 84.3% and 86.4%
 
26

of our net revenue from non-governmental sources, including 68.7% and 71.4% from self payors, respectively, and 15.6% and 15.0% from commercial payors, respectively. Substantially all of our government program net revenue was received from multiple counties and states under Medicaid and similar programs.
 
During the three months ended June 30, 2008, our consolidated same-facility net revenue increased by $1.1 million or 1.0% when compared to the comparable period in 2007.  For the six months ended June 30, 2008, our consolidated, same-facility revenue increased $2.2 million or 1.0% when compared to the comparable period in 2007.  “Same-facility” means a comparison over the comparable period of the financial performance of a facility we have operated for at least one year.
 
Our operating expenses include salaries and benefits, supplies, facilities and other operating costs, provision for doubtful accounts, depreciation and amortization and acquisition related costs. Operating expenses for our recovery and youth divisions exclude corporate level general and administrative costs (i.e., expenses associated with our corporate offices in Cupertino, California, which provide management, financial, human resources and information systems support), stock-based compensation expense and expenses associated with eGetgoing.
 
CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ESTIMATES
 
General
 
The accompanying discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations are based on our condensed consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with GAAP. The preparation of these financial statements requires us to make estimates, assumptions and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, net revenue and expenses. We have based our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Our senior management has reviewed our critical accounting policies and their application in the preparation of our financial statements and related disclosures and discussed the development, selection and disclosure of significant estimates. To the extent that actual results differ from those estimates, our future results of operations may be affected. We believe that there have not been any significant changes during the six months ended June 30, 2008 to the items that we have previously reported in our critical accounting policies in management’s discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations for the year ended December 31, 2007 in our Annual Report on Form 10-K.
 
RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
 
See Note 2 to our condensed consolidated financial statements in Part I, Item 1 for a description of recent accounting pronouncements, including our expected adoption dates and estimated effects, if any, on our results of operations, financial condition and cash flows.

Three Months Ended June 30, 2008 Compared to Three Months Ended June 30, 2007
 
Consolidated net revenue increased $6.5 million, or 5.6%, to $122.3 million in 2008 from $115.8 million in 2007. Of the total net revenue increase, the recovery division contributed $6.7 million, representing 9.3% growth for the division, with the remaining net revenue growth driven by an increase of $2.1 million, or 40.0% in corporate/other.  Total net revenue growth was partially offset by a net revenue decrease in the youth division of $2.3 million, or 6.0%. Excluding the one-time effect of a $0.5 million unearned revenue adjustment related to the Aspen acquisition during the three months ended June 30, 2007, our youth division revenue decreased $2.8 million, or 7.2%, during the three months ended June 30, 2008. Of the $2.8 million decrease in youth division revenue, $1.9 million is attributed to a single therapeutic boarding school that experienced a significant increase in student graduations and other student departures beginning the quarter ended September 30, 2007 without a commensurate increase in new enrollments. We believe, in addition to the impact of this boarding school, that there has been a slight lessening in demand as a result of the soft economy and the inability of families to access the credit markets and student loan markets to fund the tuition. Additionally, our youth division same–facility net revenue decreased $3.9 million, or 10.3%, due in part from the impact of the aforementioned boarding school. The remaining decrease was due to lower census in both our residential and outdoor programs. Revenue growth in the recovery division was due to same-facility growth of $4.6 million, or 6.5%. The remaining $2.1 million increase resulted from an acquisition, completed in the quarter ended September 30, 2007 and startups.  Of the $2.1 million net revenue increase in corporate/other, $0.5 million, or 9.4%, was due to same facility growth and $1.6 million was contributed by start-ups and by  acquisitions completed in the three months ended September 30, 2007.
 
Consolidated operating expenses increased $7.9 million, or 8.2%, to $104.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2008 from $96.9 million in the same period of 2007. Of the $7.9 million increase in operating expenses, the recovery division incurred an increase of $5.1 million, or 10.0%, corporate/other incurred an increase of $3.4 million, or 31.9%, and our youth division incurred a decrease of $0.6 million, or 1.8%. For our recovery division, same-facility increase in operating expenses was $3.5 million, or 7.5%, acquisition-related increase was $1.0 million, and startup related increase was $0.6 million. For corporate/other, same-facility
 
28

increases in operating expenses were $0.6 million, or 15.0%. Of the remaining growth, $1.2 million was related to acquisitions, $0.6 million of  start-up related growth and a remaining increase of $1.0 million due to corporate and divisional administrative costs.
 
Our consolidated operating margin was 14.3% in the quarter ended June 30, 2008 compared to 16.3% in the quarter ended June 30, 2007. On a same-facility basis, our consolidated operating margin decreased to 29.4% in the quarter ended June 30, 2008 compared to 32.9% in the quarter ended June 30, 2007. Recovery division same-facility operating margin decreased to 36.6% in the quarter ended June 30, 2008 compared to 37.5% in the quarter ended June 30, 2007. Youth division same-facility operating margin decreased to 15.8% in the quarter ended June 30, 2008 compared to 26.1% in the quarter ended June 30, 2007. The significant decrease in our youth division operating margin is in part due to a decrease of $2.0 million in revenue from one single therapeutic boarding school, and the remaining decline is generally attributable to lower student census in the remaining youth division programs. Corporate/other same-facility operating margin decreased to 13.8% in the quarter ended June 30, 2008 compared to 18.0% in the quarter ended June 30, 2007.
 
For the three months ended June 30, 2008, consolidated net income increased by $0.8 million compared to the same period in 2007. The increase in net income in 2008 was primarily attributable to a $6.5 million increase in revenue, a reduction of interest expense of $2.3 million, and interest swap gains of $0.8 million, partially offset by increased operating expenses of $7.9 million and an increase in income tax expense of $0.9 million when compared to the same period in 2007. The effective tax rate for the three months ended June 30, 2008 was 43.4% compared to 40.8% in the same period of 2007.
 
 Six Months Ended June 30, 2008 Compared to Six Months Ended June 30, 2007
 
Consolidated net revenue increased $14.6 million, or 6.5%, to $238.3 million in 2008 from $223.7 million in 2007. Of the $14.6 million increase, the recovery division contributed $13.6 million, representing 9.5% growth for the division, and the remaining net revenue growth was driven by a net revenue increase of $4.5 million, or 50.7% in corporate/other. Our youth division had a net revenue decrease of $3.4 million, or 4.8%. Excluding the one-time effect of a $2.6 million unearned revenue adjustment related to the Aspen acquisition during the six months ended June 30, 2007, the our youth division revenue decreased $6.0 million, or 8.0% during the six months ended June 30, 2008. Of the $6.0 million decrease in youth division revenue, $4.1 million is attributed to a single therapeutic boarding school that experienced a significant increase in student graduations beginning in the quarter ended September 30, 2007 without a commensurate increase in new enrollments. Additionally, our youth division same–facility net revenue decreased $8.2 million, or 11.1% due in part from the impact from the aforementioned boarding school. The remaining decrease was due to lower census in both our residential and outdoor programs. Revenue growth in the recovery division was due to same-facility growth of $9.3 million, or 6.6%. The remaining $4.2 million increase resulted from an acquisition, completed in the quarter ended September 30, 2007 and startups.  Of the $4.5 million net revenue increase in corporate/other, $1.1 million or 13.3% was due to same facility growth and $3.4 million was contributed by start-ups and by an acquisition completed in the three months ended September 30, 2007.

Consolidated operating expenses increased $18.1 million, or 9.5%, to $207.9 million in 2008 from $189.8 million in 2007. Of the $18.1 million increase in operating expenses, the recovery division incurred an increase of $10.9 million, or 10.7%, corporate/other incurred an increase of $7.3 million, or 36.1%, and our youth division incurred a decrease of $0.2 million, or 0.3%. For our recovery division, same-facility increase in operating expenses was $8.0 million, or 9.1%, and acquisition-related increase was $2.1 million while startups and divisional administrative costs contributed $0.8 million in operating expenses. For corporate/other, same-facility increase in operating expenses was $1.2 million, or 17.2%. Of the remaining increase, $2.4 million was related to an acquisition completed in the quarter ended September 30, 2007 and a $3.7 million increase due to start-up related growth and increases in corporate and divisional administrative costs.
 
Our consolidated operating margin was 12.8% for the six months ended June 30, 2008 compared to 15.2% for the six months ended June 30, 2007. On a same-facility basis, our consolidated operating margin decreased to 28.4% for the six months ended June 30, 2008 as compared to 32.4% for the six months ended June 30, 2007. Recovery division same-facility operating margin decreased to 35.7% for the six months ended June 30, 2008 as compared to 37.2% for the six months ended June 30, 2007. Youth division same-facility operating margin decreased to 14.3% for the six months ended June 30, 2008 as compared to 25.5% for the six months ended June 30, 2007. The significant decrease in our youth division operating margin is in part due to a decrease of $4.1 million in revenue from one single therapeutic boarding school, and the remaining decline is generally attributable to lower census in the remaining youth division programs. Corporate/other same-facility operating margin decreased to 10.8% for the six months ended June 30, 2008 as compared to 13.8% for the six months ended June 30, 2007.
 
For the six months ended June 30, 2008, consolidated net income decreased by $0.6 million compared to the same period in 2007. The decrease in net income in 2008 was driven by an increase in operating expense of $18.1 million, partially offset by revenue growth of $14.6 million and a reduction in interest expense of $2.8 million when compared to the same period in 2007. The effective tax rate for the six months ended June 30, 2008 was 44.8% compared to 40.8% for the same period of 2007.

Working Capital
 
Working capital is defined as total current assets, including cash and cash equivalents, less total current liabilities, including the current portion of long-term debt.
 
We had negative working capital of $58.4 million at June 30, 2008, compared to negative working capital of $56.5 million at December 31, 2007. The decrease in working capital from June 30, 2008 compared to December 31, 2007 was primarily attributable to an increase of $4.0 million in current debt related to the revolving portion of our senior secured credit facilities and an increase of $1.1 million in income tax liabilities. The increase in current debt was partially offset by a slight decrease in accounts payables as well as by a decrease in the current portion of long term debt.

Cash used provided by operating activities was $20.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2008 compared to cash provided in operating activities of $21.0 million during the same period in 2007.
 
Cash used in investing activities was $15.0 million in for the six months ended June 30, 2008 compared to $15.0 million in the same period of 2007.
 
Cash used in financing activities was $0.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2008 compared to $7.0 million for the same period in 2007. The decrease in cash used in financing activities is due to net increases of $7.6 million in borrowing under the revolving line of credit.  Such increases were partially offset by increases of $1.4 million in repayments of long term debt.
 
Financing and Liquidity
 
We intend to fund our ongoing operations through cash generated by operations, funds available under the revolving portion of our senior secured credit facility and existing cash and cash equivalents. As of June 30, 2008, our senior secured credit facility was comprised of a $411.9 million senior secured term loan facility and a $100.0 million revolving credit facility. At June 30, 2008, the revolving credit facility had $62.3 million available for borrowing, $30.5 million outstanding and classified on our balance sheet as current portion of long term debt, and $7.2 million of letters of credit issued and outstanding. As part of the acquisition of the Company by investment funds managed by Bain Capital Partners, LLC, we issued $200.0 million in aggregate principal amount of 10.75% senior subordinated notes due 2016 of which $200.0 million, less original issue discount, remained outstanding at June 30, 2008. We anticipate that cash generated by operations, the remaining funds available under the revolving portion of our senior secured credit facility and existing cash and cash equivalents will be sufficient to meet working capital requirements, service our debt and finance capital expenditures over the next 12 months.
 
In addition, we may expand existing recovery and youth treatment facilities and build or acquire new facilities. Management continually assesses our capital needs and may seek additional financing, including debt or equity, to fund potential acquisitions or for other corporate purposes. We had historically and currently intend to make payments to reduce borrowing under the revolving line of credit from operating cash flow. In addition, we expect that future financings will serve not only to partially fund acquisitions but also to repay all or part of any outstanding revolving line of credit balances then outstanding. In negotiating such financing, there can be no assurance that we will be able to raise additional capital on terms satisfactory to us. Failure to obtain additional financing on reasonable terms could have a negative effect on our plans to acquire additional treatment facilities. We expect to spend approximately $8.2 million for maintenance related expenditures and an additional $21.2 million over the next 12 months for expansion projects, systems upgrades and other related initiatives.
 
Under the terms of our borrowing arrangements, we are required to comply with various covenants, including the maintenance of certain financial ratios. As of June 30, 2008, we were in compliance with all such covenants.

Effective April 16, 2007, we entered into an amendment to our senior secured credit agreement dated November 17, 2006. Per the agreement, the term loan interest is payable quarterly at 90 day LIBOR plus 2.25% per annum; provided that on and after such time our corporate rating from Moody’s is at least B1 then the interest is payable quarterly at 90 day LIBOR plus 2% per annum.  Our interest rate swaps have effectively fixed the interest rate on a substantial portion of the term loan.  Our existing swaps have fixed $80 million of the term loan at 4.990% and $200 million of the term loan at 3.875%.
 
Funding Commitments
 
Certain agreements acquired in our acquisition of Aspen Education Group contain contingent earnout provisions that provide for additional payments if the acquisitions meet performance milestones as specified in the agreements. For the six months ended June 30, 2008, we incurred liabilities of $0.6 million associated with earnout obligations and made payments of $2.5 million. We have no future obligations for additional liabilities associated with such earnouts.
 

 
 
For quantitative and qualitative disclosures about market risk affecting us, see “Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosure about Market Risk” in Item 7A of Part II of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2007, which is incorporated herein by reference. As of June 30, 2008, our exposure to market risk has not changed materially since December 31, 2007.
 
 
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
 
We conducted an evaluation under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)), as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report. Based upon this evaluation, our principal executive officer and principal financial officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures are effective to ensure that material information required to be disclosed by us in reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in Securities and Exchange Commission rules and forms and is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
 
No change in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) occurred during the period covered by this Quarterly Report that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
 
Inherent Limitations on Effectiveness of Controls
 
Our management, including our chief executive officer and chief financial officer, does not expect that our disclosure controls or our internal control over financial reporting will prevent or detect all error and all fraud. A control system, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the control system’s objectives will be met. The design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs. Further, because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that misstatements due to error or fraud will not occur or that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within the company have been detected. These inherent limitations include the realities that judgments in decision-making can be faulty and that breakdowns can occur because of simple error or mistake. Controls can also be circumvented by the individual acts of some persons, by collusion of two or more people, or by management override of the controls. The design of any system of controls is based in part on 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. Projections of any evaluation of controls effectiveness to future periods are subject to risks. Over time, controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions or deterioration in the degree of compliance with policies or procedures.

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION
 
Item 1A.
 
As of June 30, 2008, except as set forth below, there have been no material changes to the factors disclosed in Item 1A Risk Factors in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2007.
 
Unfavorable student loan markets could negatively impact our revenues in our youth division.
 
Some students attending therapeutic boarding school in our youth division obtain private loans from lenders to finance a portion of their education. In response to recent tightening in the credit markets, certain lenders have announced that they will apply more stringent lending standards for private student loans. Continued tightening of the credit markets may result in financing difficulties for those students who rely on private student loans and could adversely impact our revenues.
 
Changes to federal, state and local regulations could prevent us from operating our existing facilities or acquiring additional facilities or could result in additional regulation of our operations which may cause our growth to be restrained, an increase in our operating expenses and our operating results to be adversely affected.
 
Federal, state and local regulations determine the capacity at which our therapeutic education programs for adolescents may be operated. Some of our programs in our youth division rely on federal land-use permits to conduct the hiking, camping and ranching aspects of these programs. State licensing standards require many of our programs to have minimum staffing levels, minimum amounts of residential space per student and adhere to other minimum standards. Local regulations require us to follow land use guidelines at many of our programs, including those pertaining to fire safety, sewer capacity and other physical plant matters.
 
In addition, federal, state and local regulations may be enacted that impose additional requirements on our facilities. For example, in 2007, legislators in the states of California and Indiana introduced bills that would impose new regulations affecting our operations. In addition, U.S. Representative Miller introduced federal legislation in April 2008, which, if adopted, would impose an additional layer of federal regulation on all private residential and outdoor treatment programs for youth under the age of 18. Adoption of legislation or the creation of new regulations affecting our facilities could increase our operating costs, restrain our growth and harm our operating results.
