1. NATURE OF THE BUSINESS AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION

Nature of the Business

Steel Partners Holdings L.P. (“SPH” or the “Company”) is a global diversified holding company that engages in multiple businesses through consolidated subsidiaries, associated companies and other interests. The Company seeks to work with its businesses to increase corporate value over the long term for all stakeholders and shareholders by implementing Steel Partners Operational Excellence programs, the Steel Partners Purchasing Council, Steel Partners Corporate Services, balance sheet improvements, capital allocation policies and growth initiatives.

The Company operates through consolidated subsidiaries and associated companies, which represent significant equity interests in operating businesses. SPH also owns interests directly and indirectly in other companies. As of March 31, 2012, the Company's operations are conducted through its two primary segments: Diversified Industrial and Financial Services. The Company also reports certain other investments and investment activity and unallocated corporate expenses within its Corporate segment.

Steel Partners Holdings GP Inc. (“SPH GP”), a Delaware corporation, is the general partner of SPH and is wholly-owned by SPH. Until December 31, 2011, Steel Partners LLC (“SPLLC”) was the manager of SPH (the “Manager”). Effective January 1, 2012, SPLLC assigned its interests in the management agreement to SP General Services LLC (“SPGS”), formerly an affiliate of SPLLC. The unitholders of SPH have limited liability with respect to their interest in the Company.

Basis of Presentation

The consolidated financial statements include the consolidated financial results of SPH, WebFinancial Holding Corporation (“WebFinancial”), Handy & Harman Ltd. (“HNH”), BNS Holding, Inc. (“BNS”), DGT Holdings Corp. (“DGT”) and SPH Services, Inc. ("SPH Services"). Acquired companies are presented from their dates of acquisition. DGT’s financial statements are recorded on a two-month lag, and as a result the statement of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2012 includes DGT’s activity for its quarter ended January 31, 2012. In 2011, BNS changed its fiscal year end from October 31 to December 31. The three months ended March 31, 2011 includes two additional months for BNS, November and December of 2010.

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements, in accordance with Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) rules for interim periods, do not contain all of the footnotes or other financial information that is normally required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP") and should be read in conjunction with the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2011. The Company believes that the disclosures made in this Form 10-Q are adequate to make the information not misleading. The December 31, 2011 consolidated balance sheet was derived from audited financial statements.

In the opinion of the Company, the interim financial statements reflect all normal and recurring adjustments necessary to present fairly the consolidated financial position and the results of operations and changes in cash flows for the interim periods.  The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires the Company to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period.  Actual results could differ from those estimates.  The results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2012 and 2011 are not necessarily indicative of the operating results for the full year.

SPH Services

SPH Services is a newly-formed subsidiary of SPH, which commenced operations on January 1, 2012, that was created to consolidate the executive and corporate functions of SPH and certain of our affiliates, including SP Corporate Services LLC ("SP Corporate") and SPLLC, to provide such services, including, without limitation, legal, tax, accounting, treasury, consulting, auditing, administration, compliance, environmental health and safety, human resources, marketing, investor relations and other similar services, to other companies. In connection with the formation of SPH Services, we acquired the membership interests in SP Corporate and SPLLC, and certain assets from Steel Partners, Ltd., a related party, as

(dollars in thousands except per unit data)

well as certain assets from HNH, on January 1, 2012. Prior to our acquisition of SPLLC, our former manager, SPLLC transferred certain assets, including its interest in our management agreement, to SPGS, a related party. See Note 14, "Related Party Transactions", for further information.

SPH Services operates through its wholly owned subsidiaries, SP Corporate and SPLLC. SP Corporate has management services agreements with HNH, BNS, CoSine Communications, Inc. (Cosine"), DGT, Fox & Hound Acquisition Corp. ("Fox & Hound"), Steel Excel Inc. ("Steel Excel"), and WebBank, a wholly owned subsidiary of WebFinancial. In addition, SP Corporate has agreements with NOVT Corporation (“NOVT”) and Ore Holdings, Inc., which are affiliated companies.

2. RECENTLY ADOPTED ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

Testing Goodwill for Impairment – In September 2011, the FASB issued guidance relating to testing goodwill for impairment, to allow entities to use a qualitative approach to test goodwill for impairment. The new guidance permits an entity to first perform a qualitative assessment to determine whether it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying value. If it is concluded that this is the case, it is necessary to perform the currently prescribed two-step goodwill impairment test. Otherwise, the two-step goodwill impairment test is not required. The guidance is effective for annual and interim goodwill impairment tests performed for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2011. The Company adopted this amendment in 2012. The adoption did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

Comprehensive Income (Topic 220): Presentation of Comprehensive Income – In June 2011, the FASB issued guidance on presentation of comprehensive income. The new guidance eliminates the current option to report other comprehensive income and its components in the statement of changes in equity. Instead, an entity will be required to present either a continuous statement of net income and other comprehensive income or in two separate but consecutive statements. The Company adopted this guidance in the first quarter of 2012, which resulted in presentation changes only.

Fair Value Measurement – In May 2011, the FASB issued guidance related to fair value measurements. This guidance changes the wording used to describe many of the requirements in GAAP for measuring fair value and for disclosing information about fair value measurements. For many of the requirements, the guidance does not result in a change in the application of the current fair value measurement and disclosure requirements. Some of the amendments clarify the FASB’s intent about the application of existing fair value measurement requirements. Other amendments change a particular principle or requirement for measuring fair value or for disclosing information about fair value measurements. The guidance, which was effective for the Company on January 1, 2012, did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

3. ACQUISITIONS

The Company did not make any acquisitions in the first three months of 2012. During 2011, the Company made the following acquisitions:

• On July 5, 2011, SPH acquired for cash 193,305 additional shares of DGT common stock for $1,933, bringing total shares owned as of July 5, 2011 to 1,977,023 representing 51.1% of the outstanding shares. Accordingly, the accounting for the investment in DGT was changed from the equity method to a majority-owned controlled subsidiary and is consolidated with SPH from that date. DGT operates through its subsidiary, RFI Corporation (“RFI”), which comprises DGT's Power Conversion Group. RFI designs, manufactures, markets and sells high voltage precision components and sub-assemblies and electronic noise suppression components for a variety of applications. The acquisition of the controlling interest in DGT was to further the Company's position as a global diversified holding company.

• On March 23, 2011, a subsidiary of HNH acquired certain assets and assumed certain liabilities of Tiger Claw, Inc. (“Tiger Claw”), a company that, among other businesses, develops and manufactures hidden fastening systems for deck construction. HNH believes this acquisition enhances its product offerings of fastening systems for deck construction. The initial purchase price of $8,761 was subsequently adjusted by approximately $254 in the fourth quarter of 2011, resulting in a final purchase price of $8,507. Revenue and net income of Tiger Claw in the Consolidated statement of operations from March 23, 2011 through March 31, 2011 are $100 and $0, respectively.

• On February 2, 2011, BNS acquired all of the capital stock of SWH, Inc. (“SWH”). The initial purchase price of $50,806 was subsequently adjusted by approximately $343, resulting in a final purchase price of $50,463 in cash. SWH owns all of the capital stock of Sun Well Services, Inc. (“Sun Well”), its sole asset. Sun Well is a work-over rig provider to oil and gas exploration companies throughout the Williston Basin in North Dakota. SWH was acquired to further the Company's position as a global diversified holding company. Revenue and net income of SWH included in the Consolidated statement of operations from February 2, 2011 through March 31, 2011are $5,078 and $1,503, respectively.

The following unaudited pro forma results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2011 assumes that the acquisitions made throughout 2011 occurred at the beginning of 2011. This unaudited pro forma information does not purport to be indicative of the results that would have been obtained if the acquisitions had actually occurred at the beginning of 2011, nor of the results that may be reported in the future.

Discontinued operations for the three months ended March 31, 2012 includes the operations of Villa through the sale date as well as the gain on sale (see discussion below). Discontinued operations for the three months ended March 31, 2011 includes the HNH discontinued operations discussed below.

DGT’s Discontinued Operations - Sale of Villa

On November 3, 2011, DGT completed a share purchase agreement (the “Share Purchase Agreement”) with VIV s.r.1., a limited liability company incorporated under Italian law (“VIV”), pursuant to which DGT sold all of the shares of its Italian subsidiary, Villa, its medical and dental imaging systems segment, to VIV.

In consideration for the sale of the shares of Villa to VIV, DGT received $22,761 in cash of net proceeds and an unsecured subordinated promissory note (the “Note”) made by VIV in the amount of €500 (initially valued at $688). The Note has a term of 5 years with interest accruing at a rate of 6% per annum beginning 18 months after issuance. The Note may be prepaid at any time and if prepayment in full occurs during the first 18 months following the date of issuance, the total principal amount will be reduced to €400. Payment of the Note will be subordinated to the repayment of the loan extended to VIV by Banca Intesa to provide financing for the Villa sale. DGT also repurchased 28,104 shares of common stock from two employees of Villa for $820. DGT also received, as part of the transaction, a dividend of cash held by Villa as of the closing date in the amount of $4,538. SPH’s net after-tax gain on the sale of Villa, which was recorded in SPH’s first quarter of 2012 due to the recording of DGT’s results of operations on a two-month lag, was $3,152 before allocation to noncontrolling interests.

HNH’s Discontinued Operations

During the third quarter of 2011, HNH sold its stock of Eurokasco, S.A.S. ("Euro-Kasco") a part of its Kasco segment, to the former management team for one Euro plus 25% of any pre-tax earnings over the next three years. Additionally, Euro-Kasco signed a 5 year supply agreement to purchase certain products from Kasco.

In 2010, HNH decided to exit the Arlon Coated Materials ("CM") business of manufacturing adhesive films, specialty graphic films and engineered coated products. In February and March 2011, HNH sold assets in two separate asset sale transactions. These businesses comprised HNH’s Arlon CM segment.

On February 4, 2011, Arlon LLC (“Arlon”), an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of HNH, sold substantially all of its assets and existing operations located primarily in the State of California related to its Adhesive Film Division for an aggregate sale price of $26,543. Net proceeds of approximately $24,200 from this sale were used to repay indebtedness under HNH’s revolving credit facility. A gain on the sale of these assets of $7,840 was recorded in the first quarter of 2011.

On March 25, 2011, Arlon and its subsidiaries sold substantially all of their assets and existing operations located primarily in the State of Texas related to Arlon’s Engineered Coated Products Division and SignTech subsidiary for an aggregate sale price of $2,500. In addition, Arlon sold a coater machine to the same purchaser for a price of $500. A loss of $5,106 was recorded on the sale of these assets in the first quarter of 2011. The net proceeds from these asset sales were used to repay indebtedness under HNH’s revolving credit facility. 

Amounts held in escrow in connection with the asset sales, totaling $3,000, are recorded in Trade and other receivables on the consolidated balance sheet as of March 31, 2012, and are due to be received by HNH in the second quarter of 2012.

The total gain as a result of these asset sales of $2,734, net of tax, is reported in discontinued operations on the consolidated statements of operations in the first quarter of 2011.

Other Investments - Related Party

Other investments - related party, classified as non-current assets at March 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011, consist of the Company’s investment in each series of the SPII Liquidating Trust (see Note 14 - “Related Party Transactions”) accounted for under the equity method. These investments were acquired and initially recorded in connection with an exchange transaction in which we acquired the limited partnership interest of Steel Partners II, L.P. (“SPII”) consisting of holdings in a variety of companies, in exchange for our common units which were distributed to certain former indirect investors in SPII (the “Exchange Transaction”). The Company elected to account for its investments in each series of the SPII Liquidating Trust under the equity method at fair value beginning July 16, 2009, the date these investments became subject to the equity method. The Company is permitted to choose, at specified election dates, to measure many financial instruments and certain other items at fair value that would not otherwise be required to be measured at fair value. If the fair value option is elected for a particular financial instrument, the Company is required to report unrealized gains and losses on those items in its consolidated statement of operations.

Each series of the SPII Liquidating Trust is separate and distinct with respect to its assets, liabilities and net assets. Each individual series has no liability or claim with respect to the liabilities or assets, of the other series. Each series shares in the costs, assets and liabilities, if any, that are not specifically attributable to a particular series. Each series generally holds the securities related to a specific investment and cash for operating expenses of the series. The investments in the SPII Liquidating Trust are not redeemable and distributions will be received from the SPII Liquidating Trust as the underlying assets held are sold over a period which is not determinable. There are no unfunded capital commitments with respect to these investments. The fair values for the investments in the SPII Liquidating Trust have been estimated using the net asset value of such interests as reported by the SPII Liquidating Trust.

The following table provides combined summarized data with respect to the other investments - related party accounted for under the equity method, which as discussed above the Company elected to account for at fair value commencing on the date the investment became subject to equity method accounting:

(a) Represents the Company’s interest in the series of the SPII Liquidating Trust that holds preference shares and ordinary shares in Barbican Group Holdings Limited.

(b) Represents the Company’s interest in the series of the SPII Liquidating Trust that holds common shares in Fox & Hound. On March 19, 2012, in conjunction with a long-term refinancing of its debt, Fox & Hound issued new common equity. As a result of the transaction, our interest in Fox & Hound through the SPII Liquidating Trust was diluted and reduced by approximately $11,200, which in included in Loss from other investments in our consolidated statement of operations.

(c) Represents the Company’s interest in the series of the SPII Liquidating Trust that holds the limited partnership interest in Steel Partners China Access I L.P. (“SPCA”) (see Note 14 - “Related Party Transactions”).

(d) Represents the Company’s interest in the series of the SPII Liquidating Trust that holds the limited partnership interest in Steel Partners Japan Strategic Fund, L.P. (“SPJSF”) (see Note 14 - “Related Party Transactions”).

(e) Represents the Company’s interest in the series of the SPII Liquidating Trust that holds certain other investments.

Investments in Variable Interest Entities

The Company holds variable interests in each series of the SPII Liquidating Trust (see “Other Investments - Investments in Related Party” above). The purpose of the SPII Liquidating Trust is to effect the orderly liquidation of certain assets previously held by SPII. The Company determined that each variable interest entity ("VIE") in which it held a variable interest since January 1, 2010 met the deferral criteria of ASC 810. Accordingly, these VIEs will continue to be assessed under the overall guidance on the consolidation of VIEs or other applicable guidance.

The Company has determined that it is not the primary beneficiary of any series of the SPII Liquidating Trust because it does not absorb a majority of the expected losses or receive a majority of the expected residual returns based on its equity ownership interests in each of the series. In addition, there are no related parties of SPH that, when considered together as a group, would cause the Company and its related party group to absorb a majority of expected losses or receive a majority of the expected residual returns. There are also no other contractual arrangements that would cause the Company to absorb a majority of the expected losses or receive a majority the expected residual returns. The Company also does not have a defacto agency relationship with any series of the SPII Liquidating Trust.

SPH’s financial position, financial performance and cash flows will be affected by the extent to which the operations of the SPII Liquidating Trust results in realized or unrealized gains (losses) and by distributions it makes in each reporting period.

7. FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

Investments and Other Financial Assets and Liabilities

The carrying value of cash and cash equivalents, receivables, prepaid and other current assets, accounts payable, other current liabilities and payables, is considered to be representative of their fair value, due to the short term nature of these instruments. The carrying amount of short-term and long-term debt does not differ materially from fair value because such debt is based on current market interest rates. The carrying value of loans receivable and deposits is considered to be representative of their fair values because the rates of interest on these instruments are not significantly different from market interest rates for instruments with similar maturities. The estimated fair values of the Company’s financial instruments as of March 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011 are shown in the following table.

ASC 820, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures”, requires enhanced disclosures about investments that are measured and reported at fair value. ASC 820 establishes a hierarchal disclosure framework that prioritizes and ranks the level of market price observability used in measuring investments at fair value. Market price observability is impacted by a number of factors, including the type of investment and the characteristics specific to the investment. Investments with readily available active quoted prices or for which fair value can be measured from actively quoted prices generally will have a higher degree of market price observability and a lesser degree of judgment used in measuring fair value.

Investments measured and reported at fair value are classified and disclosed in one of the following categories:

Level 1 - Quoted prices are available in active markets for identical investments as of the reporting date. The types of investments included in Level 1 are listed debt and equity securities.

Level 2 - Pricing inputs are other than quoted prices in active markets, which are either directly or indirectly observable as of the reporting date, and fair value is determined through the use of models or other valuation methodologies. Investments which are generally included in this category include corporate bonds and loans, less liquid and restricted equity securities.

Level 3 - Pricing inputs are unobservable for the investment and include situations where there is little, if any, market activity for the investment. The inputs into the determination of fair value require significant management judgment or estimation. Investments which are generally included in this category include private investments, non-exchange traded derivative contracts, and currency and interest rate swaps.

In certain cases, the inputs used to measure fair value may fall into different levels of the fair value hierarchy. In such

cases, an investment’s level within the fair value hierarchy is based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. The assessment of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement in its entirety requires judgment and considers factors specific to the investment.

The Company employs various methods within the market approach, income approach and/or cost approach and has also considered whether there were observable inputs. Certain discounts and other judgment factors were applied to arrive at the investments’ fair value. SPH’s private investments are valued utilizing unobservable pricing inputs. Management's determination of fair value is based upon the best information available for a given circumstance and may incorporate assumptions that are management's best estimates after consideration of a variety of internal and external factors. The valuation methodology applied for each is determined based on the nature of the investment. For private equity investments a market multiples approach that considers a specified financial measure (such as EBITDA or net tangible book value) and recent public market and private transactions and other available measures for valuing comparable companies may be used. A discounted cash flow approach may be used where significant assumptions and judgments are incorporated, including estimates of assumed growth rates, terminal values, discount rates, capital structure and other factors. For private debt investments, the valuation method considers comparable market yields for such instruments and recovery assumptions. The Company may utilize observable pricing inputs and assumptions in determining the fair value of our private investments. Observable and unobservable pricing inputs and assumptions may differ by investment and in the application of the valuation methodologies. The reported fair value estimates could vary materially if different unobservable pricing inputs and other assumptions were used.

Fair values recorded for non-financial assets acquired and liabilities assumed in acquisitions and when testing for impairment include values measured using Level 3 inputs including an income approach and/or a market approach to the measurements. The income approach is based on a discounted cash flow analysis (“DCF”) and calculates the fair value by estimating the after-tax cash flows attributable to reporting units and then discounting the after-tax cash flows to present value using a risk-adjusted discount rate. Assumptions used in the DCF require the exercise of significant judgment, including judgment about appropriate discount rates and terminal values, growth rates, and the amount and timing of expected future cash flows. The discount rates, which are intended to reflect the risks inherent in future cash flow projections, used in the DCF are based on estimates of the weighted-average cost of capital (“WACC”) of a market participant. Such estimates are derived from analysis of peer companies and consider the industry weighted average return on debt and equity from a market participant perspective. A market approach values a business by considering the prices at which shares of capital stock of reasonably comparable companies are trading in the public market, or the transaction price at which similar companies have been acquired. Relative weights are then given to the results of each of these approaches, based on the facts and circumstances of the business being valued. The use of multiple approaches (the income and market approaches) is considered preferable to a single method. Significant weight is given to the income approach because it generally provides a reliable estimate of value for an ongoing business which has a reliable forecast of operations. The income approach closely parallels investors’ consideration of the future benefits derived from ownership of an asset.

The financial instruments payable in foreign currencies are entered into with a counterparty and are considered Level 2 measurements.

The derivative instruments that certain subsidiaries of HNH purchase, specifically commodity futures and forwards contracts on precious metal, are valued at fair value. The futures contracts are Level 1 measurements since they are traded on a commodity exchange. The forward contracts are entered into with a counterparty, and are considered Level 2 measurements.

(a) Two investments with a value of $9,763 were transferred to Level 2 from Level 1 at March 31, 2012 based upon a reduction in the number of shares traded.

(b) Other investments - related party are entirely comprised of the interests held by the Company in each series of the SPII Liquidating Trust (see Note 6 - “Investments” and Note 14 - “Related Party Transactions”). Each series of the SPII Liquidating Trust generally holds the securities related to a specific investment and cash for operating expenses of the series. The investments in the SPII Liquidating Trust are not redeemable and distributions will be received as the underlying assets of the SPII Liquidating Trust are liquidated over a period which is not determinable. There are no unfunded capital commitments with respect to these investments. The fair values for the investments in the SPII Liquidating Trust held by the Company have been estimated using the net asset value of such interests as reported by the SPII Liquidating Trust. Changes in the fair values of investments in the SPII Liquidating Trust are reported in the consolidated statement of operations as loss from other investments - related party.

Realized and unrealized gains and (losses) for the three months ended March 31, 2012 and 2011 on investments for which fair values were determined using reported net asset values were $(10,800) and $(8,284), respectively. These realized and unrealized gains and losses are reported in the consolidated statement of operations. Investments for which fair value is determined using net asset values as fair value are classified as Level 3 and are $31,853 and $42,653 at March 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011, respectively. The investments are reported in the consolidated balance sheet as other investments - related party.

The Company and the SPII Liquidating Trust use specific valuation metrics appropriate for each specific investment to estimate the fair value of their debt and equity securities measured using Level 3 inputs. The SPII Liquidating Trust estimates the value of its interests in SPCA, a limited partnership that holds an investment in a Chinese company, and SPJSF based on the net asset value of such funds, which hold investments all of which are valued based on Level 1 or Level 2 inputs. The investments held by the SPII Liquidating Trust in these two investment funds are not redeemable and distributions will be received from the SPII Liquidating Trust as the underlying assets held are sold over a period which is not determinable. SPCA’s term ends in May 2013 and may be extended for up to one additional year at the discretion of its general partner. There are no unfunded capital commitments with respect to these investments.

Assets Measured at Fair Value on a Nonrecurring Basis

The Company’s non-financial assets measured at fair value in 2011 and 2010 on a non-recurring basis include the assets acquired and liabilities assumed in the acquisitions described in Note 3 – “Acquisitions”. Significant judgments and estimates are made to determine the acquisition date fair values which may include the use of appraisals, discounted cash flow techniques or other information the Company considers relevant to the fair value measurement. Subsequent to initial measurement, the Company evaluates its long-lived assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate, in management’s judgment, that carrying values may not be recoverable. Circumstances that could trigger an interim impairment test include but are not limited to: the occurrence of a significant change in circumstances, such as continuing adverse business conditions or legal factors; an adverse action or assessment by a regulator; unanticipated competition; loss of key personnel; the likelihood that a reporting unit or significant portion of a reporting unit will be sold or otherwise disposed; or results of testing for recoverability of a significant asset group within a reporting unit.

As of March 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011, WebBank has impaired loans of $3,762, of which $2,349 is guaranteed by the USDA or SBA and $3,789, of which $2,354 is guaranteed by the USDA or SBA, respectively. These loans are measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis using Level 3 inputs. Loans are considered impaired when, based on current information and events, it is probable that WebBank will be unable to collect all amounts due according to the contractual terms of loan agreements, including scheduled interest payments. When a loan has been identified as being impaired, the amount of impairment is measured based on the present value of expected future cash flows discounted at the loan’s effective interest rate or, when appropriate, the loan’s observable fair value or the fair value of the collateral (less any selling costs) if the loan is collateral-dependent. If the measurement of the impaired loan is less than the recorded investment in the loan (including accrued interest, net of deferred loan fees or costs and unamortized premium or discount), an impairment is recognized by creating or adjusting an existing allocation of the allowance for loan losses, or by charging down the loan to its value determined in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. Amounts charged against the allowance for loan losses were $0 and $353 for the three months ended March 31, 2012 and 2011, respectively.

8. FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

Foreign Currency Exchange Rate Risk

Financial instruments include $24,314 and $23,736 at March 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011, respectively, of amounts payable in foreign currencies which are subject to the risk of exchange rate changes. These financial instruments resulted from transactions entered into for risk management purposes, are collateralized by an equivalent amount included in restricted cash and have no maturity date. The liabilities are accounted for at fair value on the balance sheet date with changes in fair value reported in the consolidated statement of operations included in net investment gain (loss). The liabilities are not designated as hedging instruments. The foreign currency financial instrument liabilities at March 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011 are as follows:

	March 31, 2012			December 31, 2011
Currency	Carrying Amount		Notional Amount	Carrying Amount		Notional Amount
Japanese Yen	$	1,767	¥ 146,368	$	1,899	¥ 146,241

HNH business units are subject to the risk of price fluctuations related to anticipated revenues and operating costs, firm commitments for capital expenditures and existing assets or liabilities denominated in currencies other than U.S. dollars. HNH has not used derivative instruments to manage this risk.

Commodity Contracts

HNH enters into commodity futures and forwards contracts on precious metals that are subject to market fluctuations in order to economically hedge its precious metal inventory against price fluctuations. As of March 31, 2012, HNH had entered into forward and future contracts for gold with a total value of $2,800 and had no open contracts for silver.

As of March 31, 2012, HNH had the following outstanding forward or future contracts with settlement dates in June 2012:

.

Commodity	Amount
Gold	1,700 ounces

Option Contracts

SPH acquired the stock of two companies in conjunction with its acquisition of the assets of SPII on July 15, 2009. Subsequently, in place of these holdings, SPH invested in buying calls and selling puts in these two companies to create similar risk/reward characteristics of a direct risk management in the common stock of the two companies. As of March 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011 there are no call or put options outstanding. During 2011, the option contracts were exchange traded in

active markets and the Company estimates the fair value of the options through use of quoted prices obtained on internationally recognized exchanges.

Information is summarized below for the option contracts for the three months ended March 31, 2011:

	Three Months Ended March 31, 2011
Proceeds from sales	$	15,112
Realized gains (losses):

Unrealized gains (losses):
Change in unrealized gains	8,828
Change in unrealized losses	(2,917		)
Net unrealized investment gain	5,911
Net investment gain	$	6,640

Securities Sold, Not Yet Purchased

There are no amounts outstanding at March 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011 for securities sold, not yet purchased. For risk management purposes during the year ended December 31, 2011, the Company sold securities short in order to economically hedge the risk of a decline in the stock market. Securities sold, not yet purchased represent obligations of the Company to deliver the specified security at the contracted price and, thereby, create a liability to repurchase the security in the market at prevailing prices. Accordingly, these transactions result in off-balance-sheet risk as the Company’s ultimate obligation to satisfy the sale of securities sold, not yet purchased, at fair value may exceed the amount recognized in the consolidated balance sheet. The securities sold, not yet purchased were exchange traded in active markets and the Company estimates fair value of the securities through use of quoted prices obtained on internationally recognized exchanges.

Information is summarized below for securities sold, not yet purchased for the three months ended March 31, 2011:

	Three Months Ended March 31, 2011
Proceeds from sales	$	7,713

Subordinated Notes

HNH’s Subordinated Notes have embedded call premiums and warrants associated with them. The Company has treated the fair value of these features together as both a discount and a derivative liability at inception of the loan agreement, valued at $2,634. The discount is being amortized over the life of the notes as an adjustment to interest expense, and the derivative liability is marked to market at each balance sheet date. For the three months ended March 31, 2012 and 2011, mark to market adjustments of $313 and $(805) were recorded as unrealized gains (losses) on derivatives, decreasing (increasing) the fair value of the derivative liability to $381 and $3,671, respectively. The Subordinated Notes and embedded call premiums and warrants in the SPH consolidated financial statements and in the footnotes are presented net of intercompany amounts eliminated in consolidation.

As the above described derivatives are not designated as accounting hedges under ASC 815, “Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities” (“ASC 815”), they are accounted for as derivatives with no hedge designation. The derivatives are marked to market and both realized and unrealized gains and losses are recorded in current period earnings in the Company's consolidated statement of operations. The Company’s hedging strategy is designed to protect it against normal volatility. However, abnormal price changes in the commodity, foreign exchange and stock markets could negatively impact the Company’s earnings.

Financial Instruments with Off-Balance Sheet Risk

WebBank is a party to financial instruments with off-balance sheet risk. In the normal course of business, these financial instruments include commitments to extend credit in the form of loans. Those instruments involve to varying degrees, elements of credit and interest rate risk in excess of the amount recognized on the consolidated balance sheets. The contract amounts of those instruments reflect the extent of involvement WebBank has in particular classes of financial instruments.

At March 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011, WebBank’s undisbursed loan commitments totaled $138,038 and $113,350, respectively. Commitments to extend credit are agreements to lend to a customer provided there is no violation of any condition established in the contract. WebBank’s commitments generally have fixed expiration dates or other termination

clauses and may require payment of a fee. Since certain of the commitments are expected to expire without being drawn upon, the total commitment amounts do not necessarily represent future cash requirements. WebBank evaluates each customer’s credit worthiness on a case-by-case basis. The amount of collateral obtained if deemed necessary by WebBank upon extension of credit is based on management’s credit evaluation of the borrower.

WebBank’s exposure to credit loss in the event of nonperformance by the other party to the financial instrument for commitments to extend credit is represented by the contractual amount of those instruments. WebBank uses the same credit policy in making commitments and conditional obligations as it does for on-balance sheet instruments.

WebBank also estimates an allowance for potential losses on off-balance sheet contingent credit exposure. WebBank determines an allowance for this contingent credit exposure based on historical experience and portfolio analysis. The allowance was $1,598 and $1,696 at March 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011, respectively, and is included within Other current liabilities in the consolidated balance sheets. Increases or decreases in the allowance are included in Selling, general and administrative expenses in the consolidated statements of operations. The amount included in Selling, general and administrative expenses for credit losses on off-balance sheet contingent credit exposure was a benefit of $110 and $0 for the three months ended March 31, 2012 and 2011, respectively.

The Allowance for Loan and Lease Losses (“ALLL”) represents an estimate of probable and estimable losses inherent in the loan and lease portfolio as of the balance sheet date. Losses are charged to the ALLL when recognized. Generally, commercial loans are charged off or charged down at the point at which they are determined to be uncollectible in whole or in part. The amount of the ALLL is established by analyzing the portfolio at least quarterly, and the provisions for loan losses is adjusted so that the ALLL is at an appropriate level at the balance sheet date.

The methodologies used to estimate the ALLL depend upon the impairment status and portfolio segment of the loan. For the commercial and commercial real estate segments, a comprehensive loan grading system is used to assign loss given default grades to each loan. The credit quality indicators discussed subsequently are based on this grading system. Loss given default grades are based on both financial and statistical models and loan officers’ judgment. Groupings of these grades are created for each loan class and calculate historic loss rates ranging from the previous 36 months.

After applying historic loss experience, as described above, the quantitatively derived level of ALLL is reviewed for each segment using qualitative criteria. Various risk factors are tracked that influence judgment regarding the level of the ALLL across the portfolio segments. Primary qualitative factors that may be reflected in the quantitative models include:

• Asset quality trends

• Risk management and loan administration practices

• Risk identification practices

• Effect of changes in the nature and volume of the portfolio

• Existence and effect of any portfolio concentrations

• National economic and business conditions

• Regional and local economic and business conditions

• Data availability and applicability

Changes in these factors are reviewed to ensure that changes in the level of the ALLL are consistent with changes in these factors. The magnitude of the impact of each of these factors on the qualitative assessment of the ALLL changes from quarter to quarter according to the extent these factors are already reflected in historic loss rates and according to the extent these factors diverge from one another. Also considered is the uncertainty inherent in the estimation process when evaluating the ALLL.

Changes in the allowance for loan and lease losses are summarized as follows:

	Real Estate

Nonaccrual and Past Due Loans

Loans are generally placed on nonaccrual status when payment in full of principal and interest is not expected, or the loan is 90 days or more past due as to principal or interest, unless the loan is both well secured and in the process of collection.

A nonaccrual loan may be returned to accrual status when all delinquent interest and principal become current in accordance with the terms of the loan agreement; and the loan, if secured, is well secured; the borrower has paid according to the contractual terms for a minimum of six months; and analysis of the borrower indicates a reasonable assurance of the ability to maintain payments. Payments received on nonaccrual loans are applied as a reduction to the principal outstanding.

Closed-end loans with payments scheduled monthly are reported as past due when the borrower is in arrears for two or more monthly payments. Similarly, open-end credit such as charge-card plans and other revolving credit plans are reported as past due when the minimum payment has not been made for two or more billing cycles. Other multipayment obligations (i.e., quarterly, semiannual, etc.), single payment, and demand notes are reported as past due when either principal or interest is due and unpaid for a period of 30 days or more.

Nonaccrual loans are summarized as follows:

	March 31, 2012		December 31, 2011
Real Estate Loans:

In addition to the past due and nonaccrual criteria, loans are analyzed using a loan grading system. Generally, internal grades are assigned to loans based on financial/statistical models and loan officer judgment. The Company reviews and grades all loans with unpaid principal balances of $100 or more once per year. Grades follow definitions of Pass, Special Mention, Substandard, and Doubtful. The definitions of Pass, Special Mention, Substandard, and Doubtful are summarized as follows:

• Pass: A Pass asset is a higher quality asset and does not fit any of the other categories described below. The likelihood of loss is considered remote.

• Special Mention: A receivable in this category has a specific weakness or problem but does not currently present a significant risk of loss or default as to any material term of the loan or financing agreement.

• Substandard: A substandard receivable has a developing or currently minor weakness or weaknesses that could result in loss or default if deficiencies are not corrected or adverse conditions arise.

• Doubtful: A doubtful receivable has an existing weakness or weaknesses that have developed into a serious risk of significant loss or default with regard to a material term of the financing agreement.

Outstanding loan balances (accruing and nonaccruing) categorized by these credit quality indicators are summarized as follows at March 31, 2012:

	Pass		Special Mention		Sub- standard (1)		Doubtful		Total loans
Real Estate Loans:

Impaired Loans

Loans are considered impaired when, based on current information and events, it is probable that WebBank will be unable to collect all amounts due according to the contractual terms of the loan agreement, including scheduled interest payments. When loans are impaired, an estimate of the amount of the balance that is impaired is made and a specific reserve is assigned to the loan based on the estimated present value of the loan’s future cash flows discounted at the loan’s effective interest rate, the observable market price of the loan, or the fair value of the loan’s underlying collateral less the cost to sell. When the impairment is based on amount on the fair value of the loan’s underlying collateral, the portion of the balance that is impaired is charged off, such that these loans do not have a specific reserve in the ALLL. Payments received on impaired loans that are accruing are recognized in interest income, according to the contractual loan agreement. Payments received on impaired loans that are on nonaccrual are not recognized in interest income, but are applied as a reduction to the principal outstanding. Payments are recognized when cash is received.

Information on impaired loans is summarized as follows at March 31, 2012:

This amount is included in Receivable from related parties in the consolidated balance sheet at March 31, 2012. In addition, for a total consideration of $1,203, Steel Partners, Ltd. sold to SPH Services the fixed assets held by it relating to the New York City location, which includes furniture, equipment and leasehold improvements.

The loans are secured by the assets of Sun Well and bear interest, at the option of Sun Well, at LIBOR plus 3.5% or the greater of (a) the bank's prime rate, (b) the Federal Funds Rate plus 1.5%, or (c) the Daily One-Month LIBOR rate plus 1.5% for base rate loans. Both options are subject to leverage ratio adjustments. The interest payments are made monthly. The term loan is repayable in $1,000 quarterly principal installments from September 30, 2011 through June 30, 2015. Sun Well borrowed $20,000 on the term loan in July 2011 and has made $2,000 in scheduled principal payments through March 30, 2012.

16. PENSION BENEFIT PLANS

The following table presents the components of net periodic pension cost for the HNH pension plans for the three months ended March 31, 2012 and 2011.

	Three Months Ended March 31,
	2012			2011
Service cost	$	—		$	55
Interest cost	5,349			5,616
Expected return on plan assets	(6,747		)	(6,924		)
Amortization of actuarial loss	628			—

(dollars in thousands except per unit data)

The actuarial loss occurred principally because the investment returns on the assets have been lower than the actuarial assumptions. The actuarial losses will be amortized over the average future lifetime of the participants, which is expected to be approximately 21 years. The Company believes that the future lifetime of the participants is appropriate because the related pension plan is completely inactive.

In addition to its pension plans which are included in the table above, HNH also maintains several other post-retirement benefit plans covering certain of its employees and retirees.  The approximate aggregate expense for these plans was $500 for each of the three month periods ended March 31, 2012 and 2011, respectively.

17. CAPITAL AND ACCUMULATED OTHER COMPREHENSIVE (LOSS) INCOME

Common Unit Distributions

In connection with the Exchange Transaction, SPH agreed to distribute to the holders of its common units up to $87,506 (the “Target Distribution”), subject to certain limitations, during the period from July 16, 2009 to April 30, 2011. On April 1, 2010, SPH distributed to its unitholders of record as of March 26, 2010, $54,409 or $1.95 per common unit including $5,307 relating to treasury units. On April 6, 2011, SPH distributed to its unitholders of record as of March 25, 2011, $33,097 or $1.18 per common unit, including $3,228 relating to treasury units. With the Target Distribution having been met, the Company may, at its option, make future distributions to unitholders, although it currently has no plan to make any future distributions.

Common Units Issuance

Effective as of March 21, 2011, SPH issued to its independent directors an aggregate of 7,315 common units at a per unit value of $18.80, which was determined based on the net asset value of SPH common units as of September 30, 2010 and an aggregate of 6,865 common units at a per unit value of $20.03, which was determined based on the net asset value of SPH common units as of December 31, 2010. For the year ended December 31, 2011 each director earned annual equity compensation in the amount of $75 in the form of restricted common units of SPH, with one-third of such restricted common units vesting on November 28, 2012, one-third on November 28, 2013 and one-third on November 28, 2014. The per unit value of such restricted common units is $13.80, determined based on the fair market value of SPH common units as of November 28, 2011. Total expense for the common units issued was approximately $31 and $275 for the three months ended March 31, 2012 and 2011, respectively.

In April 2012, in connection with the termination of the Investor Services Agreement, the full amount in the Deferred Fee Liability became immediately payable. As a result, the Company issued 6,403,002 Class B common units to WGL on April 11, 2012, subject to adjustment as of March 31, 2012. These Class B common units have the same rights as the common units, except that they may not be sold in the public market until the capital account allocable to such Class B common units is equal to the capital account allocable to the common units. See Note 23 - "Subsequent Events". On May 11, 2012, the Company issued an additional 536,645 Class B common units to WGL reflecting an adjustment based on the deferred fee liability as of March 31, 2012.

Common Unitholders — Allocation of Net Income (Loss)

For each period presented net (loss) income attributable to common unit holders is allocated to the common unitholders on a pro rata basis based on the number of units held.

Accumulated Other Comprehensive Loss

Changes, net of tax, in Accumulated other comprehensive loss are as follows:

	Unrealized gain on available-for-sale securities		Cumulative translation adjustment			Change in net pension and other benefit obligations			Total
Balance at December 31, 2011	$	32,351	$	(1,649	)	$	(42,439	)	$	(11,737	)
Current period other comprehensive income (loss)	5,367		(500		)	—			4,867
Balance at March 31, 2012	$	37,718	$	(2,149	)	$	(42,439	)	$	(6,870	)

For the three months ended March 31, 2012, comprehensive income includes amounts for companies accounted for under the equity method of $1 for unrealized gain on available-for-sale securities. At March 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011, Accumulated other comprehensive loss includes amounts for these companies of $1 and $2, respectively, for unrealized loss on available-for-sale securities.

For the three months ended March 31, 2011, comprehensive income includes amounts for companies accounted for under the equity method of $393 for currency translation adjustments.

Noncontrolling Interests in Consolidated Entities

Noncontrolling interests in consolidated entities at March 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011 represent the interests held by the noncontrolling shareholders of BNS, HNH and DGT.

Incentive Compensation

Effective January 1, 2012, the Manager was granted incentive units which may entitle the Manager to receive Class B common units of SPH upon the attainment of specified performance goals. These Class B common units have the same rights as the common units, except that they may not be sold in the public market until the capital account allocable to such Class B common units is equal to the capital account allocable to the common units.  The number of incentive units granted is equal to 100% of the sum of the common units outstanding and the number of notional units used to determine the deferred fee accounts in accordance with the Deferred Fee Agreement, each as of January 1, 2012.  On the last day of each fiscal year SPH will issue to the Manager Class B common units equal to a percentage of the incentive units, on a fully diluted basis, based on the performance measurements.  If the performance measurements are not met, no units will be issued. SPH shall make any adjustment that it determines is equitably required by reason of the raising of new capital, including, without limitation, adjusting the performance measurements to account for changes in the capital structure.  The incentive units are measured and paid on an annual basis and is accrued on a quarterly basis. Accordingly, the expense accrued is adjusted to reflect the fair value of the units on the measurement date when the final calculation of the total annual incentive units is determined. In the event the calculated cumulative incentive unit expense accrued quarterly or for the full year is an amount less than the total previously accrued, the Company would record a negative incentive unit expense in the quarter when such over accrual is determined.  There was no accrual for the three months ended March 31, 2012.

If any issuance of common units, options, convertible securities or any other right to acquire common units by us results in an increase in the number of common units outstanding on a fully diluted basis as compared to the number outstanding as of the date of the most recent issuance (or, in the case of the first issuance, since the initial incentive unit grant date), the Manager will be issued additional incentive units so that as of the grant date of the additional incentive units, after taking into account the number of outstanding common units on a fully diluted basis and all incentive units granted since the initial incentive units grant date, the Manager holds outstanding incentive units (in the aggregate) equal to 100% of the sum of

41

STEEL PARTNERS HOLDINGS L.P.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

(dollars in thousands except per unit data)

the common units outstanding and the number of notional units used to determine the deferred fee accounts in accordance with the Deferred Fee Agreement, on a fully diluted basis. Each additional incentive unit shall otherwise be subject to the same terms as the incentive units, unless the Manager otherwise agrees.

Common Unit Option Liability

The common unit options expired on December 31, 2011. Therefore, there are no common unit options outstanding as of March 31, 2012 or December 31, 2011. During 2011, prior to the options expiring, the options were accounted for as a derivative liability at fair value with changes in fair value recognized during the period reported in Selling, General and Administrative expenses (“SG&A”) in the consolidated statements of operations. During the three months ended March 31, 2011, the derivative liability decreased resulting in a reduction of SG&A expenses of $1,700.

The fair value was estimated using the Black Scholes option pricing model that used assumptions as of March 31, 2011 for volatility of 23.6%, a term of 9 months, a risk free interest rate of 0.30% based on the U.S. Treasury bill yield, and an expected dividend of 0.0%. The intrinsic value of the options was $0 as of March 31, 2011. The net asset value used in the fair value estimate was$17.63 at March 31, 2011, and was adjusted for a liquidity discount. Because the SPH common units have not significantly traded internally or in a public or non-public market, there was no practical means of estimating expected volatility. The volatility assumption was based on a calculated diversified industrial company peer group average of historical volatility.

(dollars in thousands except per unit data)

income tax expense or benefit of its consolidated subsidiaries, principally for state and foreign income taxes.

Included in the Company’s tax benefit for the three months ended March 31, 2011 is $7,957 from the release of BNS’s valuation allowance relating to NOL’s.

21. REGULATORY MATTERS

SPH

The Company historically has conducted its business so as not to be deemed an investment company under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “Act”). The Company has filed with the SEC a request for an order under the Act to provide the additional time for the Company to restructure its holdings so as not to be required to register as an investment company under the Act. Under the terms of the requested order, the Company would be required to undertake transactions consistent with certain qualitative tests related to the Company’s assets and/or income and to refrain from trading for short-term speculative purposes. If the order is granted, the Company would be required to meet these tests (or otherwise not be subject to the Act) within one year following the order date. On April 27, 2012, the SEC posted a notice indicating an order granting the application will be issued unless the Commission orders a hearing. If the Company is not able to obtain relief, is unable to bring itself into conformity with the relevant tests within the relief period and is unable to otherwise remain outside of the Act’s registration requirement, the Company would be forced to register as an investment company or seek other alternatives, such as making significant changes to the Company’s business model to avoid investment company registration. Such significant changes could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s performance.

WebBank

WebBank is subject to various regulatory capital requirements administered by federal banking agencies. Failure to meet minimum capital requirements can initiate certain actions by regulators that, if undertaken, could have a direct material effect on WebBank’s financial statements. Under capital adequacy guidelines and the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action, WebBank must meet specific capital guidelines that involve quantitative measures of its assets, liabilities, and certain off-balance sheet items as calculated under regulatory accounting practices. WebBank’s capital amounts and classification are also subject to qualitative judgments by the regulators about components, risk weightings, and other factors.

Quantitative measures established by regulation to ensure capital adequacy require WebBank to maintain minimum amounts and ratios of Total and Tier 1 capital (as defined in the regulations) to risk-weighted assets (as defined), and of Tier I capital (as defined) to average quarterly assets (as defined). As of March 31, 2012, WebBank exceeded all the capital adequacy requirements to which it is subject.

As of March 31, 2012, WebBank was categorized as well-capitalized under the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action. There are no conditions or events, since the most recent FDIC notification, which have changed WebBank’s prompt corrective action category. To remain categorized as well-capitalized, WebBank will have to maintain minimum total risk-based, Tier 1 risk-based, and Tier 1 leverage.

22. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

Environmental Matters

As discussed in more detail below, HNH and BNS have been designated as potentially responsible parties ("PRPs") by federal and state agencies with respect to certain sites with which they may have had direct or indirect involvement. These claims are in various stages of administrative or judicial proceedings and include demands for recovery of past governmental costs and for future investigations and remedial actions. In many cases, the dollar amounts of the claims have not been specified and, with respect to a number of the PRP claims, have been asserted against a number of other entities for the same cost recovery or other relief as was asserted against the HNH and BNS. The Company accrues costs associated with environmental matters, on an undiscounted basis, when they become probable and reasonably estimable. As of March 31, 2012, and December 31, 2011, on a consolidated basis, the Company has accrued $6,294 and $6,574, respectively, which represents its current estimate of the probable cleanup liabilities, including remediation and legal costs. In addition, the Company has insurance coverage available for several of these matters and believes that excess insurance coverage may be

(dollars in thousands except per unit data)

available as well. 

Estimates of the Company's liability for remediation of a particular site and the method and ultimate cost of remediation require a number of assumptions that are inherently difficult to make, and the ultimate outcome may be materially different from current estimates.

HNH Environmental Matters

Handy & Harman ("H&H"), a subsidiary of HNH, entered into a consent order in 1989 with the Connecticut Department of Environmental Protection (“CTDEP”) with regard to the site of a former H&H manufacturing facility in Connecticut. The consent order covered a parcel that H&H sold in 2003 (the “Sold Parcel”), and also covered an adjacent parcel that H&H still owns (the “Adjacent Parcel”). With regard to the Sold Parcel, the CTDEP approved H&H's Soil Remediation Action Report. Remaining remediation and monitoring costs for the Sold Parcel are expected to approximate $300, and are no longer material to the Company.  H&H also has been conducting an environmental investigation of the Adjacent Parcel, and will be initiating a more comprehensive field study in 2012 with subsequent evaluation of various options for remediation of the Adjacent Parcel. Since the total remediation costs for the Adjacent Parcel cannot be reasonably estimated at this time, there can be no assurance that the resolution of this matter will not be material to the financial position, results of operations and cash flow of H&H or the Company.

In 1986, Handy & Harman Electronics Material Corporation (“HHEM”), a subsidiary of H&H, entered into an administrative consent order (the “ACO”) with the New Jersey Department of Environmental Protection (“NJDEP”) with regard to certain property that it purchased in 1984 in New Jersey.  The ACO involves investigation and remediation activities to be performed with regard to soil and groundwater contamination.  HHEM is actively remediating the property and continuing to investigate effective methods for achieving compliance with the ACO.  A remedial investigation report has been approved.  HHEM anticipates entering into discussions with NJDEP to address that agency's potential natural resource damage claims, the ultimate scope and cost of which cannot be estimated at this time.  Pursuant to a settlement agreement with the former owner/operator of the site, the responsibility for site investigation and remediation costs are shared with the former owner/operator.  As of March 31, 2012, total investigation and remediation costs of approximately $600 have been expended by HHEM in accordance with the settlement agreement.  Additionally, HHEM is currently being reimbursed indirectly through insurance coverage for a portion of the costs for which HHEM is responsible.  HHEM believes that there is additional excess insurance coverage, which it intends to pursue as necessary. HHEM anticipates that there will be additional remediation expenses to be incurred once a final remediation plan is agreed upon. There is no assurance that the former owner/operator or guarantors will continue to timely reimburse HHEM for expenditures and/or will be financially capable of fulfilling their obligations under the settlement agreement and the guaranties.  The additional costs cannot be reasonably estimated at this time, and accordingly, there can be no assurance that the resolution of this matter will not be material to the financial position, results of operations and cash flow of HHEM or the Company.

Certain subsidiaries of H&H Group have been identified as PRPs under the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act (“CERCLA”) or similar state statutes at sites and are parties to administrative consent orders in connection with certain properties.  Those subsidiaries may be subject to joint and several liabilities imposed by CERCLA on PRPs.  Due to the technical and regulatory complexity of remedial activities and the difficulties attendant in identifying PRPs and allocating or determining liability among them, the subsidiaries are unable to reasonably estimate the ultimate cost of compliance with such laws.

In August 2006, H&H received a notice letter from the United States Environmental Protection Agency (“EPA”) formally naming H&H as a PRP at a superfund site in Massachusetts. H&H is part of a group of thirteen (13) other PRPs (the “PRP Group”) that is working cooperatively regarding remediation of the superfund site.  The Department of Energy (“DOE”) is remediating certain unrelated radiological contamination at the superfund site, and accordingly the DOE and has not yet allowed access to the site to the PRP Group. It is currently anticipated that the DOE will allow access to the site late this year.  Additional financial contributions will be required by the PRP Group when it obtains access to the site.   H&H has recorded a significant liability in connection with this matter.  There can be no assurance that the resolution of this matter will not be material to the financial position, results of operations and cash flow of H&H or the Company.

HHEM is continuing to comply with a 1987 consent order from the Massachusetts Department of Environmental Protection (“MADEP”) to investigate and remediate the soil and groundwater conditions at the MA Property that is the subject

(dollars in thousands except per unit data)

of litigation. On January 20, 2009, HHEM filed with MADEP a partial Class A-3 Response Action Outcome Statement (“RAO-P”) and an Activity & Use Limitation (“AUL”) for the MA Property.  An MADEP audit and the opinion of HHEM's Licensed Site Professional constituted confirmation of the adequacy of the RAO-P and associated AUL.  On March 31, 2010, the Massachusetts Attorney General executed a covenant not to sue (“CNTS”) to cover the MA Property.  Following the execution of the CNTS, HHEM filed a Remedy Operation Status (“ROS”) on April 1, 2010. On June 30, 2010, HHEM filed a request to close the site since HHEM's licensed site professional concluded that groundwater monitoring demonstrated that conditions have stabilized or continue to improve at the site, and HHEM anticipates resolution of MADEP's audit process before the end of 2012.  In addition, HHEM has entered into settlement agreements with certain abutters of the property and entered into settlement agreements with each of them.  HHEM does not expect any other claims from any additional abutters, but there can be no such assurances that claims will not be asserted.

As discussed above, certain subsidiaries of H&H Group have existing and contingent liabilities relating to environmental matters, including capital expenditures, costs of remediation and potential fines and penalties relating to possible violations of national and state environmental laws.  Those subsidiaries have substantial remediation expenses on an ongoing basis, although such costs are continually being readjusted based upon the emergence of new techniques and alternative methods.  

Based upon information currently available, the H&H Group subsidiaries do not expect their respective environmental costs, including the incurrence of additional fines and penalties, if any, to have a material adverse effect on them or that the resolution of these environmental matters will have a material adverse effect on the financial position, results of operations and cash flows of such subsidiaries or the Company, but there can be no such assurances.  The Company anticipates that the H&H Group subsidiaries will pay any such amounts out of their respective working capital, although there is no assurance that they will have sufficient funds to pay them.  In the event that the H&H Group subsidiaries are unable to fund their liabilities, claims could be made against their respective parent companies, including H&H Group and/or HNH, for payment of such liabilities.

BNS Sub Environmental Matters

On August 12, 2008, a subsidiary of BNS (“BNS Sub”) was identified by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (“EPA”) as an alleged drum reconditioning customer (PRP) of New England Container Corp. (“NECC”). BNS Sub is presently investigating the matter and has joined a group of other alleged NECC drum reconditioning customers. The NECC drum reconditioning PRP’s have incurred and will continue to incur costs in the investigation and each PRP has been assessed a pro-rata fee for its cost share of the assessment. BNS Sub believes that it has an adequate environmental liability accrual associated with the site, which is reflected in the remediation estimate discussed above.

Litigation Matters

HNH Litigation Matters

HNH and certain of its subsidiaries are defendants (“Subsidiary Defendants”) in numerous cases pending in a variety of jurisdictions relating to welding emissions.  Generally, the factual underpinning of the plaintiffs' claims is that the use of welding products for their ordinary and intended purposes in the welding process causes emissions of fumes that contain manganese, which is toxic to the human central nervous system.  The plaintiffs assert that they were over-exposed to welding fumes emitted by welding products manufactured and supplied by the Subsidiary Defendants and other co-defendants.  The Subsidiary Defendants deny any liability and are defending these actions.  It is not possible to reasonably estimate the Subsidiary Defendants' exposure or share, if any, of the liability at this time.

In addition to the foregoing cases, there are a number of other product liability, exposure, accident, casualty and other claims against HNH or certain of its subsidiaries in connection with a variety of products sold by such subsidiaries over several years, as well as litigation related to employment matters, contract matters, sales and purchase transactions and general liability claims, many of which arise in the ordinary course of business. It is not possible at this time to reasonably estimate the probability, range or share of any potential liability of the Company or its subsidiaries in any of these matters.

There is insurance coverage available for many of the foregoing actions, which are being litigated in a variety of jurisdictions.  To date, HNH and its subsidiaries have not incurred and do not believe they will incur any significant liability with respect to these claims, which they are contesting vigorously in most cases.  However, it is possible that the ultimate

resolution of such litigation and claims could have a material adverse effect on the Company's results of operations, financial position and cash flows when they are resolved in future periods.

BNS Litigation Matters

BNS Sub has been named as a defendant in 1,035 and 1,020 alleged asbestos-related toxic-tort claims as of March 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011, respectively. The claims were filed over a period beginning 1994 through March 31, 2012. In many cases these claims involved more than 100 defendants. Of the claims filed, 873 and 694 were dismissed, settled or granted summary judgment and closed as of March 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011, respectively. Of the claims settled, the average settlement was less than $3. There can be no assurance that the number of future claims and the related costs of defense, settlements or judgments will be consistent with the experience to date of existing claims.

BNS Sub has insurance policies covering asbestos-related claims for years beginning 1974 through 1988 with estimated aggregate coverage limits of $183,000, with $2,220 and $2,230 at December 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively, in estimated remaining self insurance retention (deductible). There is secondary evidence of coverage from 1970 to 1973 although there is no assurance that the insurers will recognize that the coverage was in place. Policies issued for BNS Sub beginning in 1989 contained exclusions related to asbestos. Under certain circumstances, some of the settled claims may be reopened. Also, there may be a significant delay in receipt of notification by BNS Sub of the entry of a dismissal or settlement of a claim or the filing of a new claim. BNS Sub believes it has significant defenses to any liability for toxic-tort claims on the merits. None of these toxic-tort claims have gone to trial and, therefore, there can be no assurance that these defenses will prevail. In addition, there can be no assurance that the number of future claims and the related costs of defense, settlements or judgments will be consistent with the experience to date of existing claims; and, that BNS Sub will not need to increase significantly its estimated liability for the costs to settle these claims to an amount that could have a material effect on the consolidated financial statements.

BNS Sub annually receives retroactive billings or credits from its insurance carriers for any increase or decrease in claims accruals as claims are filed, settled or dismissed, or as estimates of the ultimate settlement and defense costs for the then-existing claims are revised. As of March 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011, respectively, BNS Sub has accrued $635 and $635 relating to the open and active claims against BNS Sub. This accrual represents the Company’s best estimate of the likely costs to defend against or settle these claims by BNS Sub beyond the amounts accrued by the insurance carriers and previously funded, through the retroactive billings by BNS Sub. However, there can be no assurance that BNS Sub will not need to take additional charges in connection with the defense, settlement or judgment of these existing claims or that the costs of future claims and the related costs of defense, settlements or judgments will be consistent with the experience to date relating to existing claims.

23. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

Settlement of Deferred Fee Liability

On April 11, 2012 (the "Termination Date"), the Company and WGL terminated the Investor Services Agreement, dated as of July 15, 2009, by mutual consent. As a result of the termination of the Investor Services Agreement the full amount of the Deferred Fee Liability became immediately payable - see Note 14 - "Related Party Transactions".  The deferred fees are recorded as a liability by the Company with a fair value of approximately $70,508 as of March 31, 2012.  Instead of receiving the deferred fee in cash, WGL has elected for the total amount to be paid in common units of the Company.  Under the Deferred Fee Agreement, the number of common units to be issued is determined by applying a 15% discount to the market price of the common units, which represents the fair value of the common units giving effect to the discount for lack of marketability.  As a result, 6,403,002 Class B common units were issued to WGL on April 11, 2012, subject to adjustment as of March 31, 2012. In connection with the termination of the Investor Services Agreement,WGL agreed not to sell any of the common units issued as payment for the deferred fee during the one year period following the Termination Date. On May 11, 2012, the Company issued an additional 536,645 Class B common units to WGL reflecting an adjustment based on the deferred fee liability as of March 31, 2012.

Steel Excel/BNS Transaction

On April 30, 2012, Steel Excel and BNS entered into a definitive Share Acquisition Agreement (the "Agreement"), pursuant to which Steel Excel will acquire all of the capital stock of SWH., the parent company of Sun Well, for an acquisition price of $85 million less net debt (debt outstanding minus cash), subject to certain adjustments. The acquisition price will be paid through a combination of up to 2,200,000 shares of common stock of Steel Excel, valued at $30 per share, and cash. The Company currently owns approximately 40% of the Steel Excel, and approximately 85% of BNS.

As a result of the acquisition, the Company will beneficially own slightly over 50% of the outstanding common stock of Steel Excel. Pursuant to the Agreement, the Company is entitled to purchase up to 200,000 Steel Excel shares in the open market prior to the completion of the acquisition, or exercise an option on or immediately prior to the closing date to purchase from the Company newly issued shares of common stock at a purchase price of $30 per share, provided that such purchases would not cause a "change of ownership" of Steel Excel under Section 382 of the U.S. Internal Revenue Code.

The parties intend that the transaction will qualify as a "reorganization" within the meaning of Section 368(a)(1)(D) of the Internal Revenue Code. Consequently, following the completion of the Steel Excel's acquisition of SWH, BNS intends to liquidate and distribute its assets to its stockholders. The Agreement provides that BNS will distribute its remaining cash, after payment or making reserve for all of its claims and obligations, to its stockholders other than the Company, and that the Company will receive the Steel Excel shares issued in the transaction. The Agreement and the liquidation are subject to approval by a vote of BNS' stockholders.

The following presents a summary of the Diversified Industrial segment operating results as reported in our consolidated financial statements:

	Three Months Ended March 31,
	2012			2011
Revenue:
HNH	$	164,136		$	153,329
BNS	12,362			5,078
DGT	3,033			—
Total Revenue	$	179,531		$	158,407

Income of associated companies	20,877			1,644
Income from investments held at fair value	8,542			—
Total	$	40,582		$	6,376

Total revenue for the Diversified Industrial segment increased to $179,531 for the three months ended March 31, 2012, as compared to $158,407 in the prior year period. The increase was due to the acquisition of SWH by BNS on February 2, 2011, the acquisition of DGT on July 5, 2011 and higher sales volume for HNH as more fully described below.

HNH

The following presents a summary of HNH:

	Three Months Ended March 31,
	2012			2011
Sales	$	164,136		$	153,329
Cost of sales	120,299			114,441
Gross profit	43,837			38,888
Selling, general and administrative expenses	32,389			28,378
Interest expense, net	3,160			3,226
Derivative activity (income) loss	(571		)	3,538
Other expense, net	47			—
Net income from continuing operations before income taxes	$	8,812		$	3,746

Net sales for the three months ended March 31, 2012 increased by $10,807, or 7.0%, to $164,136, as compared to $153,329 for the three months ended March 31, 2011. Higher sales volume from most of HNH’s segments was driven by higher demand for HNH’s products. There was no material impact on revenue related to silver prices as both periods in 2012 and 2011 had average silver prices of approximately $32 per ounce.

Approximately $7,719 of the increase in sales were attributable to HNH's Engineered Materials segment, driven by higher volume of commercial roofing products and fasteners, which were favorably impacted by the mild winter in the United States. Sales of gas connectors also increased, partially offset by lower sales of electro-galvanized steel products as a result of lower demand from the residential construction market. HNH's Precious Metal segment generated $3,193 of the incremental sales, primarily driven by higher volume and an increase of approximately $316.00 per troy ounce in the average market price of gold during the first quarter of 2012 as compared to the same period of 2011. HNH's Arlon Electronic Materials' sales decreased by $2,024, driven by reduced demand for printed circuit board materials related to the telecommunications infrastructure in China, as well as lower sales of flex heater products for the general industrial market.

Gross profit for the three months ended March 31, 2012 increased to $43,837, as compared to $38,888 for the same period of 2011. Gross profit margin for the three months ended March 31, 2012 was 1.3% higher compared to the same period

52

of 2011, primarily due to increased sales of higher-margin branded roofing fasteners from HNH's Engineering segment, higher margin from HNH's Precious Metal segment along with effective cost control and improved efficiency at the manufacturing plants in the first quarter of 2012 as compared to the first quarter of 2011.  However, the Tubing segment gross margin declined in the first quarter of 2012 as compared to the first quarter of 2011, primarily due to higher material and overhead costs.

Selling, general and administrative ("SG&A") expenses were $4,011 higher for the three months ended March 31, 2012, compared to the same period of 2011, reflecting higher variable costs as a result of higher sales during the first quarter of 2012.  SG&A as a percentage of net sales was 1.2% higher for the three months ended March 31, 2012 due to the timing of certain fixed charges, principally the fixed monthly corporate charges under the management services agreement with SP Corporate Services LLC (see Note 14 - "Related Party Transactions"), as compared to the same period of 2011.

Derivative activity income was $571 for the three months ended March 31, 2012, compared to a loss of $3,538 in the same period of 2011. Of the $571 gain in 2012, approximately $260 was attributable to precious metal contracts and approximately $310 was attributable to embedded derivative features of HNH's Subordinated Notes and related warrants. Of the $3,538 loss in 2011, approximately $2,700 was attributable to precious metal contracts and approximately $800 was attributable to the embedded derivative features of HNH's Subordinated Notes. The lower loss related to precious metal derivative contracts in the 2012 period resulted principally from a lower number of ounces of silver under contract.

Interest expense was $3,160 for the three months ended March 31, 2012, compared to $3,226 in the same period of 2011. The decrease was primarily due to a lower weighted average interest rate during the first quarter of 2012 compared to the first quarter of 2011 as a result of the redemption of $25 million of 10% Subordinated Notes during the fourth quarter of 2011.

BNS

BNS' operations include the results of its wholly-owned subsidiary, Sun Well.  Sun Well's revenue and income from continuing operations before income taxes included in the consolidated financial statements for the three months ended March 31, 2012 are $12,362 and $2,732, respectively, as compared to revenues and income from continuing operations of $5,078 and $986, respectively, for the three months ended March 31, 2011.

As noted above, we consolidated Sun Well effective February 2, 2011, the date that BNS acquired Sun Well. For comparative purposes however, unaudited pro forma revenues and earnings of BNS are presented in the table and discussion below for the full three months ended March 31, 2011. We believe this presentation is more meaningful for management's discussion and analysis in that it allows comparability for both periods.

	Three Months Ended March 31,
	2012			2011 (a)
Revenues	$	12,362		$	7,659
Cost of revenues	6,548			4,687
Gross profit	5,814			2,972
Selling, general and administrative expenses	2,891			3,329
Interest expense, net	192			372
Other income, net	(1		)	(391		)
Net income (loss) from continuing operations before income taxes	$	2,732		$	(338	)

(a) Includes the results of BNS' corporate expenses for the quarter ended March 31, 2011 and Sun Well operating results for the period from February 2, 2011 through March 31, 2011 (all of which is presented in the historical financial statements of the Company), as well as pro forma adjustments to include Sun Well operating results for the period January 1, 2011 through February 1, 2011.

Sun Well's revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2012 increased by $4,703, or 61.4%, to $12,362, as compared to $7,659 for the same period last year.  The revenue increase is due to an increase in the average number of rigs in operation (18 in 2012 as compared to 15 in 2011), a 16% increase in revenue per rig hour due to pricing and services provided and an average 11% improvement in billable hours per rig.  Gross profit for the quarter ended March 31, 2012 grew by 95.6% as compared to the pro forma results for the quarter ended March 31, 2011, consistent with the increase in revenue, the increase in number of rigs in service and the improvement in revenue per rig and billable hours per rig.  

SG&A expenses for the quarter ended March 31, 2012 decreased by 13.2% as compared to the pro forma SG&A

53

expenses for the quarter ended March 31, 2011, due primarily to $774 in employee bonus payments charged to expense in January 2011. Excluding the 2011 bonus payments, selling, general and administrative costs increased by 8% in the quarter ended 2012 as compared to the pro forma quarter ended March 31, 2011. The increase is due to additions to the administration functions to support the increased customer demand.

Interest expense for the quarter ended March 31, 2012 is related to Sun Well's borrowings on its term loan and revolving credit and lease agreements, which total approximately $20,689 at March 31, 2012. Interest expense in the pro forma quarter ended March 31, 2011 was $372, and includes $255 of interest expense incurred by BNS on $14,000 of debt incurred to consummate the Sun Well acquisition, as well as $117 of interest expense on Sun Well lease debt. The BNS loan was repaid in full in September 2011 and the Sun Well lease debt was repaid prior to BNS's February 2, 2011 acquisition of Sun Well. Other income, net, pro forma, for the quarter ended March 31, 2011 relates to Sun Well's January 2011 termination of a sale and lease back transaction and the reversal of a related deferred gain.

DGT

The Company consolidated DGT effective July 5, 2011, the date that our interest in DGT exceeded 50%. In addition, on November 3, 2011 DGT sold its Medical Systems Group, which comprised approximately 84% of DGT’s net sales of $67,921 for its fiscal year ended July 30, 2011. As a result, the operations of Villa are reflected as discontinued operations in our consolidated financial statements for the three months ended March 31, 2012. For the three months ended March 31, 2012, revenues and pretax loss from continuing operations reported in our consolidated financial statements relating to DGT were $3,033 and $381, respectively.

Income from investments held at fair value

Income from investments held at fair value represents the increase in fair value of API during the three months ended March 31, 2012. Prior to January 1, 2012, the Company's investment in API was accounted for as an associated company. For additional information see Note 5 - "Investments in Associated Companies" to the SPH financial statements found elsewhere in this Form 10-Q.

Financial Services Segment

The Financial Services segment, for financial reporting purposes, consists of our consolidated and wholly-owned subsidiary WebBank (which operates in niche banking markets), and WF Asset Corp (which consists of a portfolio of investments). WebBank provides commercial and consumer loans and services. WebBank's deposits are insured by the FDIC, and the bank is examined and regulated by the FDIC and UDFI.

The following presents a summary of the Financial Services segment:

	Three Months Ended March 31,
	2012			2011
Revenue:
Interest income (including fees)	$	2,981		$	2,179
Non-interest income	1,055			1,082
	4,036			3,261
Costs and expenses:
Interest	281			215
(Recovery of) provision for loan losses	(145		)	116
Selling, general and administrative expenses	1,604			1,795
	1,740			2,126
Net income from continuing operations before taxes	$	2,296		$	1,135

Interest Income

Interest income increased by $802, or 36.8%, in the three months ended March 31, 2012, compared to the three months ended March 31, 2011, due primarily to the growth in one of the Banks' lending programs.

Noninterest Income

Noninterest income decreased $27, or 2.5% for the three months ended March 31, 2012, compared to the three months ended March 31, 2011, due primarily to the termination of a lending program, partially offset by gains on sale of other real estate owned.

Interest Expense

Interest expense represents interest accrued on WebBank depositor accounts. Interest expense increased $66, or 30.7%, for the three months ended March 31, 2012, compared to the three months ended March 31, 2011, largely due to growth in average deposits, partially offset by a decrease in average interest rates on certificates of deposits.

(Recovery of) Provision for Loan Losses

At March 31, 2012, WebBank had an estimated $3,762 of impaired loans (of which $2,349 is guaranteed by the USDA or SBA) and an allowance for loan losses of $450.

The (recovery of) provision for loan losses is primarily related to WebBank's portfolio of local real estate loans. WebBank routinely obtains appraisals on underlying collateral of nonperforming loans and records a provision for losses if the value of the collateral declines below the value of the loans. WebBank recorded a reduction of provision for loan losses of $145 for the three months ended March 31, 2012, compared to an expense of $116 for the three months ended March 31, 2011. During the first quarter of 2012, WebBank was able to continue to recover previously charged off loans and effectively reduce the loans portfolio by $4,778 as compared to March 31, 2011.

Selling General and Administrative Expenses

The decrease in SG&A expenses of $191, or 10.6%, for the three months ended March 31, 2012, compared to the three months ended March 31, 2011, was due primarily to a benefit of $110 recorded in the three months ended March 31, 2012

55

related to the reserve for off balance sheet credit exposures, a recovery of legal expenses of $20 for the three months ended March 31, 2012 compared to legal expenses of $81 for the three months ended March 31, 2011, partially offset by an increase in personnel and occupancy expense for the three months ended March 31, 2012.

Corporate and Other

The following presents a summary of Corporate and Other:

	Three Months Ended March 31,
	2012			2011
Revenue:
Investment and other income	$	116		$	374
Net investment gains	2,339			13,058

Income (loss) from investments held at fair value	96			(1,564		)
Net income (loss) from continuing operations	$	5,379		$	(114	)

Revenue

Investment and other income is often based on a limited number of transactions, the timing and amounts of which are not always predictable. Net investment gains (losses) include realized gains and losses on sales of securities and write-downs of investments available-for-sale when there is deemed to be an other than temporary impairment. The Company’s decision to sell securities and realize gains or losses generally includes its evaluation of strategic considerations, an individual security’s value at the time and the prospect for changes in its value in the future. The timing of realized investment gains or losses is not predictable and does not follow any pattern from year to year. Interest and dividend income will vary depending on the type and amount of securities held from year to year.

Investment and other income was $116 for the three months ended March 31, 2012 compared to $374 in the same period last year. The decrease in 2012 was primarily due to lower interest income.

Net investment gains for the three months ended March 31, 2012 was $2,339 compared to $13,058 in the same period of 2011. The decrease was due to higher gains in the three months ended March 31, 2011 from the sale of certain available-for-sale securities as well as gains on certain derivative investments.

Interest Expense

In the ordinary course of business the Company may sell securities short and enter into foreign currency transactions which, in effect, in certain circumstances, may represent borrowings from the counterparty. Interest expense represents interest and other fees on such transactions.

56

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses

SG&A expenses consist primarily of legal, accounting, audit, tax, professional fees and common unit option expense. SG&A expenses increased to $3,128 in the three months ended March 31, 2012, from $1,125 in the three months ended March 31, 2011. The increase is primarily due to approximately $1,700 reduction of option expense recorded in the first quarter of 2011(see Note - 17 "Capital and Accumulated Other Comprehensive (Loss) Income" to the SPH financial statements found elsewhere in this Form 10-Q) as well as higher professional fees incurred in the three months ended March 31, 2012.

Management Fees to Related Party

Under a management agreement with the Manager effective January 1, 2009 and amended July 15, 2009, SPH paid a monthly management fee based on 1.5% per annum of the net asset value of the Company’s common units. Effective January 1, 2012, SPH is paying a quarterly Management Fee at a rate of 1.5% of total partner’s capital, payable on the first day of each quarter and subject to quarterly adjustment. SPH also reimburses the Manager for any costs it incurs on behalf of the Company or in connection with its provision of services under the management agreement. For additional information, see Note 14 – “Related Party Transactions” to the SPH financial statements found elsewhere in this Form 10-Q.

Increase in Deferred Fee Liability to Related Party

Increase in deferred fee liability to related party is an expense that arose beginning July 16, 2009 as a result of the assumption in connection with the Exchange Transaction of an obligation pursuant to a deferred fee agreement due to WGL, an affiliate of the Manager ("Deferred Fee Liability"). The increase in Deferred Fee Liability to related party of $11,762 recorded in the first three months of 2012 was due to an increase in an index related to the value of SPH. On April 11, 2012, the Company and WGL terminated the Investor Services Agreement, dated as of July 15, 2009, by mutual consent. As a result of the termination of the Investor Services Agreement the full amount in the Deferred Fee Liability became immediately payable. For additional information, see Note 23 - "Subsequent Events" to the SPH financial statements found elsewhere in this Form 10-Q.  

Income of Associated Companies

Income (loss) of associated companies included in the Corporate and Other segment is as follows:

	Ownership at
	March 31,	Three Months Ended March 31,
	2012	2012			2011
Steel Excel(a)	40.3%	$	—		$	359
Cosine	47.0%	(97		)	(145		)
Fox & Hound (b)	43.6%	29,760			—
		$	29,663		$	214

(a) Effective January 1, 2012, Steel Excel was reclassified to the Diversified Industrial segment due to recent acquisitions of oil field servicing companies.

(b) Fox & Hound became an associated company in the first quarter of 2012 (see Note 5 - "Investments in Associated Companies" to the SPH financial statements found elsewhere in this Form 10-Q).

Loss From Other Investments - Related Party

Loss from other investments - related party includes income or loss we recognize on our 43.75% investment in each series of the SPII Liquidating Trust (for additional information see Note 6 - “Investments” of the SPH financial statements found elsewhere in this Form 10-Q). The Company elected to account for its investments in each series of the SPII Liquidating Trust under the equity method at fair value beginning July 16, 2009, the date these investments became subject to the equity method. Unrealized gain/loss on each series of the SPII Liquidating Trust is reported in the consolidated statement of operations. The loss in the first three months of 2012 was primarily due to series of the SPII Liquidating Trust that holds an interest in Fox & Hound. On March 19, 2012, in conjunction with a long-term refinancing of its debt, Fox & Hound issued new common equity. As a result of the transaction, our interest in Fox & Hound through the SPII Liquidating Trust was diluted and reduced by approximately $11,200, which in included in Loss from other investments in our consolidated statement of operations.

57

Income (Loss) From Investments Held at Fair Value

Income (loss) from investments held at fair value includes income or loss that the Company recognizes on its direct investment in Barbican.

Income Taxes

As a limited partnership, we are generally not responsible for federal and state income taxes and our profits and losses are passed directly to our limited partners for inclusion in their respective income tax returns. Provision has been made for federal, state, local or foreign income taxes on the results of operations generated by our corporate subsidiaries and these are reflected within continuing and discontinued operations. The difference between the effective tax rate and statutory federal rate of 35% is principally due to changes in the valuation allowances and partnership income not subject to taxation.

For the three months ended March 31, 2012, a tax provision of $1,872 was recorded, and for the three months ended March 31, 2011, a tax benefit from continuing operations of $5,607 was recorded. The Company’s tax provision represents the income tax expense or benefit of its consolidated subsidiaries, principally for state and foreign income taxes. The Company has recorded deferred tax valuation allowances to the extent that it believes that it is more likely than not that the benefits of its deferred tax assets will not be realized in future periods. Included in the Company’s tax benefit for the three months ended March 31, 2011 is $7,957 from the release of BNS’s valuation allowance relating to NOL’s.

Other Comprehensive Income

Other comprehensive income primarily represents the net unrealized gains and unrealized losses during the period on available-for-sale securities held at the end of each reporting period, adjusted for the reversal of unrealized gains and unrealized losses recognized in prior periods on available-for-sale securities sold during the period. Approximately $5,291 and $5,399 of the other comprehensive income recorded for the three months ended March 31, 2012 and 2011, respectively, was related to unrealized gains on available-for-sale securities.

Cash Flows from Operating Activities

Net cash provided by operating activities for the three months ended March 31, 2012 was $12,124. Net income of $50,138 was partially offset by a decrease of $4,111 relating to changes in operating assets and liabilities. Of this working capital decrease, $18,535 was from an increase in accounts receivable and $4,453 was from an increase in inventories, partially offset by an increase in accounts payable and accrued and other liabilities of $10,823 and a net decrease in loans held for sale of $8,539. Net income was also impacted by $11,762 relating to the increase in the Deferred Fee Liability to related party and $610 relating to net cash provided by operating activities of discontinued operations. The increase in accounts receivable relates primarily the increase in sales by HNH during the first three months of 2012 compared to the same period last year.

Net cash used in operating activities for the three months ended March 31, 2011 was $27,131. Net income of $15,131 was offset by a decrease of $36,642 relating to changes in operating assets and liabilities (of which $21,324 was from an increase in accounts receivable, $1,137 was from a decrease in accounts payable and accrued and other liabilities, $7,599 was due to an increase in inventories and $7,630 was due to a net increase in loans held for sale). In addition, net cash used by operating activities of discontinued operations was $2,654.

58

Cash Flows from Investing Activities

Net cash provided by investing activities for the three months ended March 31, 2012 was $29,004. Significant items included proceeds from the sale of discontinued operations of $22,761 and net proceeds from sales of investments of $23,173, which were partially offset by investments in associated companies of $10,923, which represents our indirect investment in Fox & Hound, and purchases of property plant and equipment of $6,554.

Net cash used in investing activities for the three months ended March 31, 2011 was $24,352. Significant items included acquisitions, net of cash acquired of $57,414 and release of restricted cash relating primarily to closing out foreign currency financial instruments of $5,692. These decreases in cash were partially offset by net proceeds received from the sale of investments of $20,356, and proceeds received from the sale of discontinued operations of $26,543.

Cash Flows from Financing Activities

Net cash provided by financing activities for the three months ended March 31, 2012 was $2,719. This was due primarily to net revolver borrowings of $13,473, partially offset by lower bank deposits held by WebBank of $4,031, net change in overdrafts of $2,808 and net repayments of term loans of $586.

Net cash provided by financing activities for the three months ended March 31, 2011 was $3,586. This was due to net proceeds from term loans and short term debt of $4,485 and the net change in overdrafts of $2,804, partially offset by lower bank deposits held by WebBank of $3,180.

Liquidity and Capital resources

Holding Company

SPH, excluding its operating subsidiaries, the “Holding Company,” is a global diversified holding company whose assets principally consist of the stock of its direct subsidiaries, cash and cash equivalents and other non-controlling investments in debt and equity securities. The Holding Company continuously evaluates the retention and disposition of its existing operations and investments and investigates possible acquisitions of new businesses in order to maximize unitholder value. Accordingly, further acquisitions, divestitures, investments and changes in capital structure are possible. Its principal potential sources of funds are available cash resources, investments, borrowings, public and private capital market transactions, repayment of subsidiary advances, distributions or dividends from subsidiaries, as well as dispositions of existing businesses and investments. The Holding Company’s investments are subject to changes that may result in amounts realized from any future sales that are, at times significantly different from the value we are reporting at March 31, 2012. These investments, including those accounted for under the equity method, can be impacted by market conditions, changes in the specific business environments of our investees or by the underlying performance of these businesses.

In addition to cash and cash equivalents, the Holding Company considers investments at fair value included in its consolidated balance sheet as being generally available to meet its liquidity needs. Investments at fair value are not as liquid as cash and cash equivalents, but they are generally convertible into cash within a reasonable period of time. As of March 31, 2012, the Holding Company had cash and cash equivalents of $27,078 and investments of $110,815. The Holding Company had $24,314 of restricted cash which serves as collateral with respect to foreign currency financial instruments. The Holding Company is not able to use these funds for other purposes, and the Holding Company does not consider this amount to be available to meet its liquidity needs.

The Holding Company generally does not have access to the cash flow generated by the Company’s operating businesses for its needs, and the operating businesses generally do not rely on the Holding Company to support their operating activities. The Holding Company’s available liquidity, and the investment income realized from the Holding Company’s cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities is used to meet the Holding Company’s recurring cash requirements, which are principally the payment of its overhead expenses. Prior to March 31, 2012, the Holding Company’s only long-term cash requirement was the payment of the Deferred Fee Liability which was valued at $70,508 as of March 31, 2012. On April 11, 2012, the Company and WGL terminated the Investor Services Agreement, dated as of July 15, 2009, by mutual consent. As a result of the termination of the Investor Services Agreement the full amount in the Deferred Fee Liability became immediately payable - see Note 14 - "Related Party Transactions".  Instead of receiving the deferred fee in cash, WGL has elected for the total amount to be paid in common units of the Company.  Under the Deferred Fee Agreement, the number of common units to be issued is determined by applying a 15% discount to the market price of the common units, which represents the fair value of the common units giving effect to the discount for lack of marketability.  As a result, 6,403,002 Class B common units were issued

59

to WGL on April 11, 2012, subject to adjustment as of March 31, 2012. These Class B common units have the same rights as the common units, except that they may not be sold in the public market until the capital account allocable to such Class B common units is equal to the capital account allocable to the common units. On May 11, 2012, the Company issued an additional 536,645 Class B common units to WGL reflecting an adjustment based on the deferred fee liability as of March 31, 2012. In connection with the termination of the Investor Services Agreement,WGL agreed not to sell any of the common units issued as payment for the deferred fee during the one year period following the Termination Date. The Holding Company also provides a $4,000 line of credit to WebBank, which was undrawn as of March 31, 2012.

The Holding Company and its operating businesses may use their available liquidity to make acquisitions of new businesses and other investments, but, the timing and cost of any future investments cannot be predicted. The Company may seek external debt or equity financing and will rely on its existing liquidity to fund corporate overhead expenses, the payment of the Deferred Fee Liability, and new acquisition opportunities. It may also dispose of existing businesses and investments.

At March 31, 2012, the Holding Company and its consolidated subsidiaries had, in the aggregate, cash and cash equivalents of $171,042 available for operations in the ordinary course of business and for the acquisition of interests in businesses. In addition, a portion of the Holding Company’s investments at fair value, as may be determined from time to time not to be strategic, are also available to be sold and the proceeds of which may be used acquire interests in other businesses and finance operations in the ordinary course.

As of March 31, 2012, SPH’s associated companies, without giving effect to SPH’s ownership share of such companies, had, in the aggregate, approximately $301,000 of cash and marketable securities (including approximately $269,000 related to Steel Excel) available for operations in the ordinary course of business and potential acquisition of businesses. SPH does not have control of or access to this cash and marketable securities.

Discussion of Segment Liquidity and Capital Resources

Diversified Industrial

HNH

As of March 31, 2012, HNH’s current assets totaled $192,348, its current liabilities totaled $122,059, and its working capital was $70,289, as compared to working capital of $70,069 as of December 31, 2011.

HNH generated $646 of positive cash flow from operating activities in the three months ended March 31, 2012 and $18,824 of cash used in operating activities in the comparable 2011 period. The increase in cash flow from operations was principally attributable to a lower use of working capital during the three months ended March 31, 2012.  In our consolidated financial statements we recorded pre-tax income of $8,812 relating to HNH from continuing operations and $8,143 of net income from continuing operations for the three months ended March 31, 2012.

For HNH, the parent company, sources of cash flow consist of its cash on-hand, distributions from its principal subsidiary, H&H Group, and other discrete transactions. H&H Group’s credit facilities restrict H&H Group’s ability to transfer any cash or other assets to HNH, subject to the following exceptions: (i) unsecured loans for required payments to the WHX Pension Plan, a defined benefit pension plan sponsored by HNH, (ii) payments by H&H Group to HNH for the payment of taxes by HNH that are attributable to H&H Group and its subsidiaries, and (iii) unsecured loans, dividends or other payments for other uses in the aggregate principal amount, together with the aggregate amount of all other such loans, dividends and payments, not to exceed $60,000 in the aggregate (a portion of which has been used). These exceptions are subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions, including the maintenance of minimum amounts of excess borrowing availability under the credit facilities. H&H Group’s credit facilities are collateralized by first priority liens on substantially all of the assets of H&H Group and its subsidiaries.

The ability of H&H Group to draw on its U.S. revolving line of credit under the Wells Fargo Facility (the “First Lien Revolver”) is limited by its borrowing base of accounts receivable and inventory. As of March 31, 2012, HNH’s availability under the First Lien Revolver was $46,500.

There can be no assurances that H&H Group will continue to have access to its lines of credit if financial performance of its subsidiaries do not satisfy the relevant borrowing base criteria and financial covenants set forth in the applicable financing agreements. If H&H Group does not meet certain of its financial covenants or satisfy the borrowing base criteria, and if it is unable to secure necessary waivers or other amendments from the respective lenders on terms acceptable to management, its

60

ability to access available lines of credit could be limited, its debt obligations could be accelerated by the respective lenders, and liquidity could be adversely affected.

BNS

As of March 31, 2012, BNS current assets totaled $17,600 and its current liabilities were $10,700, for a working capital of $6,900 as compared to working capital of $6,200 at December 31, 2011.  The increase in working capital is due primarily to increase in trade receivables, from $7,700 at December 31, 2011 to $8,600 at March 31, 2012, as increases in cash and equivalents offset increases in current liabilities from December 31, 2011 to March 31, 2012.

Sun Well entered into a credit agreement with Wells Fargo Bank, National Association in June 2011 that included a $20,000 term loan and a revolving line of credit for up to $5,000.  The term loan is repayable in $1,000 quarterly installments from September 30, 2011 through June 30, 2015.  The balance of the term loan at March 31, 2012 was $18,000, of which $4,000 is shown as a current liability.  Sun Well borrowed $1,000 on the revolving line of credit during the quarter ended March 31, 2012.

Sun Well uses capitalized lease obligations to fund a portion of its capital acquisitions.  At March 31, 2012, capitalized lease obligations were $1,700 as compared to $1,800 at December 31, 2011.

BNS source of cash flows are the cash flows generated by Sun Well.  Sun Well uses its operating cash flows as well as the borrowings under its term loan and borrowings under capital leases to fund its operations and its debt obligations.  The loan is secured by the assets of Sun Well and limits the amount of cash that it can distribute to BNS in the form of loans or dividends.  The line of credit availability is limited based on Sun Well's borrowing base assets (primarily accounts receivable), and is only available if Sun Well is in compliance with the terms of its loan agreements and has sufficient borrowing base assets.  There can be no assurances that Sun Well will continue to have access to its line of credit if its financial performance does not satisfy the relevant borrowing base criteria and financial covenants set forth in the applicable financing agreement.  If Sun Well does not meet certain of its financial covenants or satisfy the borrowing base criteria in its credit facilities, and if it is unable to secure necessary waivers or other amendments from the respective lenders on terms acceptable to Sun Well, its ability to access available lines of credit could be limited, its debt obligations could be accelerated by the respective lenders, and liquidity could be adversely affected.

BNS expects that it will be able to fund its activities in the ordinary course of business over at least the next twelve months.

DGT

At January 28, 2012, its most recent fiscal period reported to the SEC on Form 10-Q, DGT had $43,300 in cash and cash equivalents. As discussed below, on November 3, 2011 DGT received $27,300 in connection with the sale of Villa. DGT’s sources of capital include, but are not limited to, cash flow from operations and short-term credit facilities. DGT believes that available short-term and long-term capital resources are sufficient to fund DGT’s working capital requirements, scheduled debt payments, interest payments, capital expenditures and income tax obligations for the next 12 months.

During its fiscal year ended July 30, 2011, DGT completed a Rights Offering which provided $14,300, net of expenses. DGT also received proceeds of $2,500 for a mortgage on its Bay Shore, NY facility. In addition, approximately $2,400 of long-term debt was repaid, including the approximately $1,000 for the purchase price of the manufacturing facility in Milan, Italy at the conclusion of its lease in April 2011.

On September 12, 2011, DGT entered into a share purchase agreement with VIV s.r.l., a limited liability company incorporated under Italian law (“VIV”), pursuant to which DGT agreed to sell all of the shares of its Italian subsidiary, Villa, its medical and dental imaging systems segment, to VIV, subject to the terms and conditions set forth therein. The sale was consummated on November 3, 2011. As a result, the operations of Villa are reflected as discontinued operations in our consolidated financial statements for the period from July 5, 2011. In conjunction with the sale, immediately prior to the sale, Villa paid a dividend to DGT in the amount of $4,538. In consideration for the sale of the shares of Villa to VIV, DGT received $22,761 in cash and an unsecured subordinated promissory note (the “Note”) made by VIV in the amount of €500. The Note has a term of 5 years with interest accruing at a rate of 6% per annum beginning 18 months after issuance. The Note may be prepaid at any time and if prepayment in full occurs during the first 18 months following the date of issuance, the total principal amount will be reduced to €400. Payment of the Note will be subordinated to the repayment of the loan extended to VIV by Banca Intesa to provide financing for the Villa Sale.

Financial Services

WebBank manages its liquidity to provide adequate funds to meet anticipated financial obligations such as certificate of deposit maturities and to fund customer credit needs. WebBank had $84,529 and $77,285 in cash at the Federal Reserve Bank and in its Fed Funds account at its correspondent bank at March 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011, respectively. WebBank had $6,500 and $5,500 in lines of credit from its correspondent banks at March 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011, respectively. WebBank had $2,206 and $2,115 available from the Federal Reserve discount window at March 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011, respectively. Additionally, WebBank has available a $4,000 line of credit from the Holding Company at March 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011.

Contractual Commitments and Contingencies

On March 31, 2012, Steel Partners, Ltd., an affiliate of the Manager, assigned its right and title to its New York City office lease to SPH Services. In connection with the assignment, Steel Partners, Ltd. remitted $3,286 to SPH Services, subject to adjustment, which represents the present value of the lease payment obligations over the fair value of the leased facilities through June 30, 2015, the expiration date of the lease, given current market conditions. The total payments under the lease through June 30, 2015, including base rent and operating expense and real estate tax escalations, is approximately $7,400. Sublease rental receipts for the period aggregate $795.

On April 11, 2012, the Company and WGL terminated the Investor Services Agreement, dated as of July 15, 2009, by mutual consent. As a result of the termination of the Investor Services Agreement the full amount in the Deferred Fee Liability became immediately payable - see Note 14 - "Related Party Transactions".   The deferred fees are recorded as a liability by the Company with a fair value of approximately $70,508 as of March 31, 2012.  Instead of receiving the deferred fee in cash, WGL has elected for the total amount to be paid in common units of the Company.  Under the Deferred Fee Agreement, the number of common units to be issued is determined by applying a 15% discount to the market price of the common units.  As a result, 6,403,002 Class B common units were issued to WGL on April 11, 2012, subject to adjustment as of March 31, 2012. On May 11, 2012, the Company issued an additional 536,645 Class B common units to WGL reflecting an adjustment based on the deferred fee liability as of March 31, 2012.
