MEDICAL ACTION INDUSTRIES INC.

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

JUNE 30, 2012

(Unaudited)

Note 1. Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements of Medical Action Industries Inc. (“Medical Action” or the “Company”) have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“US GAAP”) for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q for quarterly reports under section 13 or 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by US GAAP for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Operating results for the three month period ended June 30, 2012 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the fiscal year ending March 31, 2013. For further information, refer to the financial statements and footnotes thereto included in the Company’s 2012 Annual Report on Form 10-K.

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with US GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses reported in those financial statements as well as the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements. These judgments can be subjective and complex, and consequently, actual results could differ from those estimated. Significant estimates made by the Company include the allowance for doubtful accounts, inventory valuation, fair value of stock-based compensation, income taxes, valuation of long-lived assets, accrued sales incentives and rebate reserves. A summary of the Company’s significant accounting policies is identified in Note 1 “Organization and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies” of the Company’s 2012 Annual Report on Form 10-K. Users of financial information produced for interim periods are encouraged to refer to the notes contained in the 2012 Annual Report on Form 10-K when reviewing interim financial results. There have been no changes to the Company’s significant accounting policies or to the assumptions and estimates involved in applying these policies. The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. All significant inter-company accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. All dollar amounts presented in our notes to condensed consolidated financial statements are presented in thousands, except share and per share data.

Note 2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

The preparation of consolidated annual and quarterly financial statements in conformity with US GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amount of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of our consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting periods. We have made a number of estimates and assumptions in the preparation of these consolidated financial statements. We can give no assurance that actual results will not differ from those estimates. Some of the more significant estimates include allowances for trade rebates and doubtful accounts, realizability of inventories, goodwill and other intangible assets, depreciation and amortization of long-lived assets, product liability, pensions and other postretirement benefits and environmental and litigation matters.

7

There have been no material changes to our significant accounting policies and estimates from the information provided in Note 1 “Organization and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies” of the notes to our consolidated financial statements in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2012.

Note 3. Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

Presentation of Comprehensive Income

In June 2011, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued authoritative guidance included in Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 220, Comprehensive Income, related to the presentation of comprehensive income. Specifically, the new guidance allows an entity to present components of net income and other comprehensive income in one continuous statement, referred to as the statement of comprehensive income, or in two separate, but consecutive statements. The new guidance eliminates the current option to report other comprehensive income and its components in the statement of changes in equity. While the new guidance changes the presentation of comprehensive income, there are no changes to the components that are recognized in net income or other comprehensive income under current accounting guidance. The adoption of this disclosure-only guidance will not have an impact on the Company’s consolidated financial results and was effective for the Company on April 1, 2012. Comprehensive income (loss) is the same as net income (loss) for the three months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011.

Goodwill Impairment Testing

In September 2011, the FASB issued authoritative guidance in ASC 350, Intangibles – Goodwill and Other, intended to simplify goodwill impairment testing. Entities will be allowed to perform a qualitative assessment on goodwill impairment to determine whether it is more likely than not (defined as having a likelihood of more than 50 percent) that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount as a basis for determining whether it is necessary to perform the two-step goodwill impairment test. This guidance is effective for goodwill impairment tests performed in interim and annual periods for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2011, or the Company’s third quarter of fiscal 2012. The adoption of this authoritative guidance did not have a material effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

Balance Sheet Disclosures about Offsetting Assets and Liabilities

In December 2011, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2011-11, Balance Sheet (Topic 210): Disclosures about Offsetting Assets and Liabilities. The update requires an entity to disclose information about offsetting and related arrangements to enable users of its financial statements to understand the effect of those arrangements on its financial position. The amendment will be effective for annual reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2013, and interim periods within those annual periods. We do not anticipate that the adoption of ASU 2011-11 will have a material effect on our consolidated financial statements and disclosures.

Note 4. Inventories

Inventories, which are stated at the lower of cost (determined by means of the first in, first out method) or market, consist of the following:

Work in Progress, net		6,939		4,340
Total Inventories, net	$	54,033	$	53,825

On a continuing basis, inventory quantities on hand are reviewed and an analysis of the provision for excess and obsolete inventory is performed based primarily on the Company’s sales history and anticipated future demand. The reserve for excess and obsolete inventory amounted to approximately $1,048 at June 30, 2012 and $1,015 at March 31, 2012.

Note 5. Related Party Transactions

As part of the assets and liabilities acquired as a result of the AVID acquisition, the Company assumed a capital lease obligation for the AVID facility located in Toano, VA. The facility, which includes a 185,000 square foot manufacturing and warehouse building and approximately 12 acres of land, is owned by Micpar Realty, LLC (“Micpar”). AVID’s founder, former CEO and principal shareholder, is a part owner of Micpar and subsequent to the acquisition of AVID, he was appointed to the Company’s board of directors.

The gross and net book value of the capital lease is as follows:

As of June 30, 2012, the capital lease requires monthly payments of $124 with increases of 2% per annum. The lease contains provisions for an option to buy after three and five years and expires in March 2029. The effective rate on the capital lease obligation is 9.9%.

Another member of the Company’s board of directors is currently a minority shareholder of Custom Healthcare, an assembler and packager of Class 1 medical products. Custom Healthcare is a supplier to our AVID facility located in Toano, Virginia for small kits and trays. Custom Healthcare is also a customer of the Company and purchases sterile instruments from our facility located in Arden, North Carolina. During the three months ended June 30, 2012, Custom Healthcare sold approximately $436 in small kits and trays to the Company and purchased approximately $263 in sterile instruments from the Company.

Note 7. Credit Facilities and Long-Term Debt

Long-term debt consists of the following:

	June 30, 2012		March 31, 2012
Revolving Credit Agreement (a)	$	10,000	$	19,670
Term Loan (a)		51,000		56,000

Less: current portion		5,000		8,000
Total long-term debt	$	56,000	$	67,670

On June 7, 2012, the Company entered into the Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (the “New Credit Agreement”) with certain lenders and a bank acting as administrative agent for the lenders which are more fully described in Note 8 “Long-term Debt” of the notes to our consolidated financial statements in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2012. The New Credit Agreement modified certain terms and conditions of the First Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (the “Prior Credit Agreement”) dated August 27, 2010 with such lenders. The Prior Credit Agreement provided the Company with total borrowings of up to $110,000, consisting of (i) a secured term loan with a principal

11

amount of $80,000 and (ii) a revolving credit facility up to $30,000. The Prior Credit Agreement was used to repay a previous term loan and to fund the acquisition of AVID. The New Credit Agreement provides the Company with total borrowings of up to $76,000, consisting of (i) a secured term loan with a principal amount of $51,000 and (ii) a secured revolving credit facility, which amounts may be borrowed, repaid and re-borrowed up to $25,000.

The New Credit Agreement, which expires June 30, 2014, shall be used to finance the working capital needs and general corporate purposes of the Company and for permitted acquisitions. Under the New Credit Agreement, the term loan matures as follows; (i) $1,000 on September 30, 2012, December 31, 2012 and March 31, 2013, (ii) $2,000 on June 30, 2013 and September 30, 2013, (iii) $2,250 on December 31, 2013 and March 31, 2014 and (iv) $39,500 on June 30, 2014. Both the term loan and the revolving credit facility bear interest at LIBOR plus up to 3.5% and LIBOR plus 4% under the terms of the Prior and New Credit Agreements, respectively. The average interest rate on the term loan under the New Credit Agreement and Prior Credit Agreement approximated 3.91% and 3.25%, during the three months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively, and the average interest rate on the revolving credit facility under the New Credit Agreement and Prior Credit Agreement approximated 4.58% and 5.25%, during the three months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively. The Company’s availability under the revolving credit facility under the New Credit Agreement amounted to $15,000 as of June 30, 2012.

Borrowings under the New Credit Agreement are collateralized by substantially all the assets of the Company and its subsidiaries, and the agreement contains certain restrictive covenants, which, among other matters, impose limitations with respect to the incurrence of indebtedness, granting of liens, guarantees of obligations, mergers, acquisitions, capital expenditures, making loans or investments, specified sales of assets and prohibits the declaration and payment of dividends. The Company is also required to comply with specified financial covenants relating to (i) maximum annual capital expenditures of $4,000, (ii) a minimum fixed charge coverage ratio of 1.00 to 1.00 on a rolling four fiscal quarter basis and (iii) minimum earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization for certain specified quarterly periods through the expiration of the loans, including $3,000 for the fiscal quarter ending on June 30, 2012, $7,500 for the two consecutive fiscal quarter period ending September 30, 2012, $13,750 for the three consecutive quarter period ending December 31, 2012, $18,000 for the four consecutive fiscal quarter period ending March 31, 2013 and $21,000 for the four consecutive fiscal quarter period ending June 30, 2013. In addition, the Company has committed to certain post-closing conditions, including providing monthly financial statements, quarterly updates of financial projections and filed mortgages on our North Carolina, West Virginia and Tennessee facilities. As of August 2, 2012, the Company is in compliance with all covenants and financial ratios under the New Credit Agreement.

In addition, a borrowing base has been added to the New Credit Agreement such that the total outstanding loans plus available commitments thereunder may not exceed the specified percentages of the value of eligible receivables, inventory, equipment, real property plus a permitted overadvance amount, all calculated monthly. In the event outstanding amounts of loans under the New Credit Agreement exceed this borrowing base, the Company would be required to prepay the excess.

Note 8. Stock-Based Compensation Plans

The Company has various stock-based compensation plans, which are more fully described in Note 11 “Stockholders’ Equity and Stock Plans” of the notes to our consolidated financial statements in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2012.

Note 9. Income Taxes

The Company’s provision for income taxes as a percentage of pretax losses from continuing operations (“effective tax rate”) was 38.6% for the three months ended June 30, 2012, as compared to 38.5% of pretax earnings from continuing operations for the three months ended June 30, 2011. Generally, fluctuations in the effective tax rate are primarily due to changes in state taxes.

In accordance with the provisions of ASC 740, Income Taxes, we recognize in our financial statements only those tax positions that meet the more-likely-than-not-recognition threshold. We establish tax reserves for uncertain tax positions that do not meet this threshold. Interest and penalties associated with income tax matters are included in the provision for income taxes in our consolidated statements of operations. Our accrual for interest and penalties was $21 upon adoption of ASC 740 and at June 30, 2012.

Note 10. Earnings Per Share

Basic earnings per share are based on the weighted average number of common shares outstanding without consideration of potential common shares. Diluted earnings per share are based on the weighted average number of common and potential common shares outstanding. The calculation takes into account the shares that may be issued upon exercise of stock options, reduced by the shares that may be repurchased with the funds received from the exercise, based on the average prices during the periods. Excluded from the calculation of earnings per share are options to purchase 1,312,503 shares for the three months ended June 30, 2012 and 1,218,687 shares for the three months ended June 30, 2011, as their inclusion would not have been dilutive.

Note 11. Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The following methods and assumptions were used to estimate the fair value of each class of financial instruments for which it is practicable to estimate that value:

Cash and Cash Equivalents

The carrying amount approximates fair value because of the short maturity of those instruments.

Accounts Receivable

The carrying amount of trade receivables reflects net recovery value and approximates fair value because of their short outstanding terms.

Accounts Payable

The carrying amount of trade payables approximates fair value because of their short outstanding terms.

Current Portion of Long-Term Debt

The carrying value of our current portion of long-term debt equals fair market value because the interest rate reflects current market rates.

15

Long-Term Debt

The fair value of our long-term debt is estimated based on quoted market prices or current rates offered to us for debt of the same remaining maturities.

The estimated fair values of our financial instruments at June 30, 2012 and March 31, 2012 are as follows:

	June 30, 2012
	Carrying Amount		Level 1		Level 2		Level 3
Cash and cash equivalents	$	953	$	953	$	—	$	—

Note 12. Other Matters

The Company is involved in two product liability cases, which are covered by insurance. While the results of these lawsuits cannot be predicted with certainty, management does not expect that the ultimate liabilities, if any, will have a material adverse effect on the financial position or results of operations of the Company.

Overview

We manufacture and market single-use medical products used principally by acute care facilities within the United States. Our product lines are divided into two markets, Clinical Care and Patient Care. Our Clinical Care market includes custom procedure trays, minor procedure kits and trays, operating room disposables and sterilization products. Our Patient Care market includes patient bedside products, containment systems for medical waste and laboratory products.

Our market approach encompasses ongoing strategic relationships with group purchasing organizations (“GPOs”), integrated delivery networks (“IDNs”), acute care facilities, surgery centers, clinical decision makers and procurement managers within acute care facilities, national and regional distributors and other end users of our products. Over the previous two years we have implemented an internal structure to support a market presence which encompasses; i) a marketing team comprised of product line managers for each of our key product categories, ii) an Executive Health Services team, that directly maintains our relationship with GPOs and IDNs, iii) regional managers who supervise both Clinical Care and Patient Care sales representatives and maintain relationships with larger acute care facilities and iv) sales representatives which maintain a direct presence with the end users of our products and manage compliance levels on GPO and IDN contracts. While we view the end users of our products as the critical decision point driving our market penetration approximately 67% of our products are sold through two national distributors.

We have supply agreements with substantially every major GPO and IDN in the country including Novation, Premier and MedAssets. A majority of the acute care facilities that we sell to are members of at least one GPO. The supply agreements we have been awarded through these GPOs designate the Company as a sole-source or multi-source provider for substantially all of our product offerings. We consider our relationships with the GPOs and IDNs that we conduct business with to be valuable intangible assets. The supply agreements with GPOs and IDNs typically have no minimum purchase requirements and terms of one to three years that can be terminated on ninety days advance notice. While the acute care facilities associated with the GPOs and IDNs are not obligated to purchase our product offerings, many of these supply agreements have resulted in unit sales growth for the Company. Acute care facility orders purchased through our supply agreements by the three largest GPOs in the healthcare industry, Novation Premier and MedAssets, accounted for $55,409 or 49% of our total net sales for the three months ended June 30, 2012.

Over time we have increased revenues both organically and via acquisition. At this time we have focused our resources on increasing sales within existing product lines and continuing synergy initiatives associated with the AVID acquisition to drive organic sales growth.

We source our products from our four production facilities in the United States and from foreign suppliers, principally based in China. Our domestic production facilities and foreign suppliers have sufficient capacity to meet current product demand.

We conduct injection molding production and blown film production in our Gallaway, Tennessee and Clarksburg, West Virginia facilities, respectively. We conduct minor procedure kit and tray assembly operations and custom procedure tray assembly operations in our Arden, North Carolina and Toano, Virginia facilities, respectively. The principal raw materials used in

18

the production of our product lines include resin and cotton. Our production facilities consume approximately 52 million pounds of resin, namely polypropylene and polyethylene, per annum. Cotton is purchased by our foreign suppliers and converted into finished products, principally operating room towels and laparotomy sponges. We purchase finished goods that contain approximately 11 million pounds of cotton per annum.

The challenging economic environment of the past three years has negatively impacted hospital utilization, placed adverse economic pressure on acute care facilities and fostered volatility in commodity prices. These factors have impacted our revenues, average selling prices and gross profit. We have addressed these conditions by expanding our product lines, investing in our sales and marketing teams, managing our operating costs and differentiating ourselves in the market by emphasizing our ability to add value to our customers by improving their patient outcomes. We remain committed to being a trusted strategic partner to our customers known for delivering innovative solutions to the healthcare community to improve the quality of care and enhancing patient experiences.

During the three months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, we reported revenues of $112,237 and $106,473, respectively. Our net income (loss) and earnings per diluted share during the three months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011 were ($137) or ($0.01) per diluted share, and $263 or $0.02 per diluted share, respectively.

The following table sets forth certain operational data (in dollars and as a percentage of net sales) for the three months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011:

	June 30, 2012			Percent of Net Sales			June 30, 2011		Percent of Net Sales
Net Sales	$	112,237			100.0	%	$	106,473		100.0	%

THREE MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2012 COMPARED TO THREE MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2011:

The following table sets forth net sales by market for the three months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011:

	June 30, 2012			June 30, 2011			Increase (decrease) due to price / mix			Increase (decrease) due to volume / mix
Clinical Care Market Sales	$	69,963		$	66,158		$	1,824		$	1,981
Patient Care Market Sales		45,502			43,375			(380	)		2,507
Sales Related Adjustments		(3,228	)		(3,060	)		(166	)		(2	)
Total Net Sales	$	112,237		$	106,473		$	1,278		$	4,486

Net sales were $112,237 and $106,473 during the three months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively. The increase in net sales was comprised of an increase in unit sales in the amount of $4,486 and an increase in the average selling prices of our products in the amount of $1,278. The increase in average selling prices resulted principally from increases in the average selling prices of our custom procedure trays and operating room disposable products. These increases were partially offset by declining average selling prices on our patient bedside disposable products. These declines resulted principally from competitive pressures, the renewal of certain GPO supply agreements and a change in mix of products purchased by our customers. The increase in unit sales was predominantly attributable to higher domestic market penetration within our patient bedside disposable and minor procedure kits and trays products.

Gross profit was $16,945 and $16,972 during the three months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively. Gross profits as a percentage of net sales were 15.1% during the three months ended June 30, 2012 and 15.9% during the three months ended June 30, 2011. The decline in gross profits was attributable to the mix of products sold and an increase in costs of raw materials resulting from rising global commodity prices. These increased costs were partially offset by increases in pricing to our customers and improved productivity in our manufacturing facilities.

Resin-related product lines which include containment systems for medical waste, patient bedside disposable products and laboratory products product lines, represent approximately 36% of the Company’s revenues for the three months ended June 30, 2012. The primary raw material utilized in the manufacture of these products is plastic resin. We have experienced volatility in resin costs consistent with global market prices of oil during the past several years. In any given year we may purchase approximately 52 million pounds of resin. Our gross profit during the three months ended June 30, 2012 as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2011 was unfavorably impacted by $899 due to higher resin prices.

During the three months ended June 30, 2012, we imported approximately $18,185 of finished goods and certain raw materials from overseas vendors, principally China. Our main imports are operating room products, which include operating room towels and laparotomy sponges, minor procedure kits and trays and surgical instruments used in our minor procedure kits and trays and certain containment products and patient bedside disposable products that we do not produce domestically. The products we have produced in China include cotton and plastic resin as raw materials.

20

The costs within the global market for cotton, while still volatile, have declined from their peak in March 2011. While the Company does not directly purchase unfinished cotton and convert the material into finished goods, it is the primary raw material utilized in the production of our operating room towels and laparotomy sponges. The volume of cotton included in these products is estimated to be approximately 11 million pounds per annum. Our gross profit during the three months ended June 30, 2012 as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2011 was favorably impacted by $182 due to lower costs of products sourced from overseas vendors.

Selling, general and administrative expenses amounted to $15,944 and $15,428 during the three months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively. The increase is primarily due to $577 in higher GPO administration fees resulting from higher sale volume and a new GPO supply agreement and $382 in professional services associated with the renegotiation of our credit agreement. These increases were partially offset by declines of $242 in depreciation expense and $201 in various recall-related expenses (associated with a supplier) incurred during the three months ended June 30, 2011.

Distribution expenses, which are included in selling, general and administrative expenses, amounted to $2,140 and $1,876 during the three months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively. The increase is primarily due to increased sales volumes and labor-related costs, principally overtime expenses.

Interest expense amounted to $1,224 and $1,117 during the three months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively. The increase in interest expense was attributable to an increase in interest rates, partially offset by a decrease in outstanding principal loan balances.

Income tax expense (benefit) amounted to ($86) and $164 during the three months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively. Income tax expense (benefit) as a percent of income before income taxes was 38.6% and 38.5% during the three months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively.

Cash used in investing activities	$	(564	)	$	(195	)
Cash provided by (used in) financing activities	$	(14,703	)	$	320
Increase (decrease) in cash and cash equivalents	$	(4,431	)	$	171

Historically, the Company’s primary sources of liquidity and capital resources have included cash provided by operations and the use of available borrowing facilities while the primary uses of liquidity and capital resources have included acquisitions, capital expenditures and payments on debt.

Cash provided by operating activities during the three months ended June 30, 2012 was primarily comprised of depreciation of $1,299, amortization of $962 and increases in (i) accounts payable of $7,479 and (ii) accrued expenses of $4,572. This was partially offset by increases in (i) accounts receivable of $2,412 and (ii) prepaid expenses and other current assets of $530.

Cash used in investing activities during the three months ended June 30, 2012 consisted of $564 in purchases of property, plant and equipment. The majority of these capital expenditures related to machinery and equipment for our injection molding facility located in Gallaway, Tennessee. The Company’s credit facilities contain certain covenants and restrictions, which include limitations on capital expenditures. During fiscal 2013, the Company is permitted under the terms of its Credit Agreement, to spend up to $4,000 on capital expenditures per annum.

Cash used in financing activities during the three months ended June 30, 2012 consisted primarily of $14,670 in net payments on our Credit Agreement. During the three months ended June 30, 2012, the Company reduced its term loan by $5,000 and its revolving credit loan by $9,670.

The following table sets forth certain liquidity and capital resources data for the periods indicated:

	June 30,		March 31,
	2012		2012
	(Unaudited)
Cash and Cash Equivalents	$	953	$	5,384
Accounts Receivable, net	$	33,254	$	30,845
Days Sales Outstanding		26.2		26.0
Inventories, net	$	54,033	$	53,825

Stockholder’s Equity	$	148,847	$	148,807
Debt to Equity Ratio		0.50		0.60

The Company is committed to maintaining a strong financial position through maintaining sufficient levels of available liquidity, managing working capital and generating cash flows necessary to meet operating requirements. Total borrowings outstanding were $74,754 with a debt to equity ratio of 0.50 to 1.0 at June 30, 2012 as compared to $89,457 with a debt to equity ratio of 0.60 to 1.0 at March 31, 2012. Cash and cash equivalents at June 30, 2012 were $953 and the Company had $15,000 available for borrowing under its revolving credit loan.

Working capital at June 30, 2012 was $50,343 compared to $60,621 at March 31, 2012, and the current ratio at June 30, 2012 was 2.1 to 1.0 compared to 2.6 to 1.0 at March 31, 2012. The decrease in working capital is primarily due to an increase in current liabilities of $9,061. The increase in current liabilities is primarily comprised of an increase in accounts payable of $7,479 and accrued expenses of $4,572.

On June 7, 2012, the Company entered into our Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement. The Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement requires us to comply with specified financial covenants relating to (i) maximum annual capital expenditures of $4,000, (ii) a minimum fixed charge coverage ratio of 1.00 to 1.00 on a rolling four fiscal quarter basis and (iii) minimum earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization for certain specified quarterly periods through the expiration of the loans, including $3,000 for the fiscal quarter ending on June 30, 2012, $7,500 for the two consecutive fiscal quarter period ending September 30, 2012, $13,750 for the three consecutive quarter period ending December 31, 2012, $18,000 for the four consecutive fiscal quarter period ending March 31, 2013 and $21,000 for the four consecutive fiscal quarter period ending June 30, 2013. In addition, the Company has committed to certain post-closing conditions, including providing monthly financial statements, quarterly updates of financial projections and filed mortgages on our North Carolina, West Virginia and Tennessee facilities. As of August 2, 2012, the Company is in compliance with all covenants and financial ratios under the Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement.

23

Borrowings under the Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement are collateralized by substantially all of the assets of the Company and its subsidiaries, and the agreement contains certain restrictive covenants, which, among other matters, impose limitations with respect to the incurrence of indebtedness, granting of liens, guarantees of obligations, mergers, acquisitions, capital expenditures, making loans or investments, specified sales of assets and prohibits the declaration and payment of dividends.

The Company believes that the anticipated future cash flow from operations, coupled with its cash on hand and available funds under its revolving credit facility will be sufficient to meet working capital requirements. Although we have borrowing capacity on our revolving credit agreement, have cash on hand and anticipate future cash flow from operations, we may be limited in our ability to allocate funds for purposes such as potential acquisitions, capital expenditures, marketing, development and other general corporate purposes. In addition, we may be limited in our flexibility in planning for or responding to changing conditions in our business and our industry, making us more vulnerable to general economic down turns and adverse developments in our business.

Borrowing Arrangements

On August 27, 2010, Medical Action entered into our Prior Credit Agreement, among the Company, as borrower, JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as administrative agent and the lenders party thereto pursuant to which such lenders agreed to make certain extensions of credit to the Company. On June 7, 2012, the Company agreed to amend and restate the Prior Credit Agreement in its entirety and entered into a New Credit Agreement, among the Company, as borrower, JPMorgan Chase, N.A., as administrative agent, Citibank, N.A., as syndication agent and HSBC Bank USA, N.A., Sovereign Bank and Wells Fargo Bank, N.A. as co-documentation agents and the other lenders party thereto (the “Lenders”).

The New Credit Agreement provides for a $51,000 secured term loan and a $25,000 secured revolving credit facility. The revolving credit facility is used to finance the working capital needs and general corporate purposes of the Company and its subsidiaries and for permitted acquisitions. As of June 30, 2012, $10,000 in revolving loans and $51,000 in term loans were outstanding under the New Credit Agreement.

Related Party Transactions

As part of the assets and liabilities acquired from the AVID acquisition, the Company assumed a capital lease obligation for the AVID facility located in Toano, Virginia. The facility, which includes a 185,000 square foot manufacturing and warehouse building and approximately 12 acres of land, is owned by Micpar Realty, LLC (“Micpar”). AVID’s founder and former CEO, is a part owner of Micpar and subsequent to the acquisition of AVID, he was elected to the Company’s board of directors.

The gross and net book value of the capital lease for the periods presented is as follows:

	June 30,			March 31,
	2012			2012
Capital lease, gross	$	11,409		$	11,409
Less: Accumulated amortization		(1,126	)		(972	)
Capital lease, net	$	10,283		$	10,437

During the three months ended June 30, 2012 the Company recorded $154 of amortization expense associated with the capital lease. Approximately $119 of the amortization is included in our cost of goods sold and the remaining $35 is recorded in our selling, general and administrative expenses.

As of June 30, 2012, the capital lease requires monthly payments of $124 with increases of 2% per annum. The lease contains provisions for an option to buy after three and five years and expires in March 2029. The effective rate on the capital lease obligation is 9.9%. Total lease payments required under the capital lease for the five-year period ending June 30, 2017 is $7,785.

Another member of the Company’s board of directors is currently a minority shareholder in Custom Healthcare, an assembler and packager of Class 1 medical products. Custom Healthcare is a supplier to our AVID facility located in Toano, Virginia for small kits and trays. Custom Healthcare is also a customer of the Company and purchases sterile instruments from our facility located in Arden, North Carolina. During the three months ended June 30, 2012, Custom Healthcare sold approximately $436 in small kits and trays to the Company and purchased approximately $263 in sterile instruments from the Company.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

We do not maintain any off-balance sheet arrangements, transactions, obligations or other relationships with unconsolidated entities that would be expected to have a material current or future effect upon our financial condition or results of operations.

25

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk

The Company is exposed to interest rate change market risk with respect to its credit facility with a financial institution which is priced based on the alternate base rate of interest plus a spread of up to 3.00%, or at LIBOR rate plus a spread of up to 4.00%. The Company decides at its sole discretion as to whether borrowings will be at the alternate base rate or LIBOR. At June 30, 2012, $61,000 was outstanding under the credit facility. Changes in the alternate base rates or LIBOR rates during fiscal 2013 will have a positive or negative effect on the Company’s interest expense. Each 1% fluctuation in the interest rate will increase or decrease interest expense for the Company by approximately $610 on an annualized basis.

A significant portion of the Company’s raw materials are purchased from China. All such purchases are transacted in U.S. dollars. The Company’s financial results, therefore, could be impacted by factors such as changes in foreign currency exchange rates or weak economic conditions in foreign countries in the procurement of such raw materials. To date, sales of the Company’s products outside the United States have not been significant.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

We maintain disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in reports we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, we conducted an evaluation of our disclosure controls and procedures, as such term is defined under Rule 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) promulgated under the Exchange Act, as of the end of the period covered by this Report. Based upon that evaluation, the Company’s management concluded that, as of June 30, 2012, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective.

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

During the three months ended June 30, 2012, we have not made any changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

We continue to review, document and test our internal control over financial reporting and may from time to time make changes aimed at enhancing their effectiveness and to ensure that our systems evolve with our business. These efforts may lead to various changes in our internal control over financial reporting.

Note 3. Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

Presentation of Comprehensive Income

In June 2011, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued authoritative guidance included in Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 220, Comprehensive Income, related to the presentation of comprehensive income. Specifically, the new guidance allows an entity to present components of net income and other comprehensive income in one continuous statement, referred to as the statement of comprehensive income, or in two separate, but consecutive statements. The new guidance eliminates the current option to report other comprehensive income and its components in the statement of changes in equity. While the new guidance changes the presentation of comprehensive income, there are no changes to the components that are recognized in net income or other comprehensive income under current accounting guidance. The adoption of this disclosure-only guidance will not have an impact on the Company’s consolidated financial results and was effective for the Company on April 1, 2012. Comprehensive income (loss) is the same as net income (loss) for the three months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011.

Goodwill Impairment Testing

In September 2011, the FASB issued authoritative guidance in ASC 350, Intangibles – Goodwill and Other, intended to simplify goodwill impairment testing. Entities will be allowed to perform a qualitative assessment on goodwill impairment to determine whether it is more likely than not (defined as having a likelihood of more than 50 percent) that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount as a basis for determining whether it is necessary to perform the two-step goodwill impairment test. This guidance is effective for goodwill impairment tests performed in interim and annual periods for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2011, or the Company’s third quarter of fiscal 2012. The adoption of this authoritative guidance did not have a material effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

Balance Sheet Disclosures about Offsetting Assets and Liabilities

In December 2011, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2011-11, Balance Sheet (Topic 210): Disclosures about Offsetting Assets and Liabilities. The update requires an entity to disclose information about offsetting and related arrangements to enable users of its financial statements to understand the effect of those arrangements on its financial position. The amendment will be effective for annual reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2013, and interim periods within those annual periods. We do not anticipate that the adoption of ASU 2011-11 will have a material effect on our consolidated financial statements and disclosures.

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies [Abstract]

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Note 2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

The preparation of consolidated annual and quarterly financial statements in conformity with US GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amount of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of our consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting periods. We have made a number of estimates and assumptions in the preparation of these consolidated financial statements. We can give no assurance that actual results will not differ from those estimates. Some of the more significant estimates include allowances for trade rebates and doubtful accounts, realizability of inventories, goodwill and other intangible assets, depreciation and amortization of long-lived assets, product liability, pensions and other postretirement benefits and environmental and litigation matters.

There have been no material changes to our significant accounting policies and estimates from the information provided in Note 1 “Organization and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies” of the notes to our consolidated financial statements in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2012.

Basis of Presentation [Abstract]

Basis of Presentation

Note 1. Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements of Medical Action Industries Inc. (“Medical Action” or the “Company”) have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“US GAAP”) for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q for quarterly reports under section 13 or 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by US GAAP for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Operating results for the three month period ended June 30, 2012 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the fiscal year ending March 31, 2013. For further information, refer to the financial statements and footnotes thereto included in the Company’s 2012 Annual Report on Form 10-K.

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with US GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses reported in those financial statements as well as the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements. These judgments can be subjective and complex, and consequently, actual results could differ from those estimated. Significant estimates made by the Company include the allowance for doubtful accounts, inventory valuation, fair value of stock-based compensation, income taxes, valuation of long-lived assets, accrued sales incentives and rebate reserves. A summary of the Company’s significant accounting policies is identified in Note 1 “Organization and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies” of the Company’s 2012 Annual Report on Form 10-K. Users of financial information produced for interim periods are encouraged to refer to the notes contained in the 2012 Annual Report on Form 10-K when reviewing interim financial results. There have been no changes to the Company’s significant accounting policies or to the assumptions and estimates involved in applying these policies. The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. All significant inter-company accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. All dollar amounts presented in our notes to condensed consolidated financial statements are presented in thousands, except share and per share data.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments [Abstract]

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

Note 11. Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The following methods and assumptions were used to estimate the fair value of each class of financial instruments for which it is practicable to estimate that value:

Cash and Cash Equivalents

The carrying amount approximates fair value because of the short maturity of those instruments.

Accounts Receivable

The carrying amount of trade receivables reflects net recovery value and approximates fair value because of their short outstanding terms.

Accounts Payable

The carrying amount of trade payables approximates fair value because of their short outstanding terms.

Current Portion of Long-Term Debt

The carrying value of our current portion of long-term debt equals fair market value because the interest rate reflects current market rates.

Long-Term Debt

The fair value of our long-term debt is estimated based on quoted market prices or current rates offered to us for debt of the same remaining maturities.

The estimated fair values of our financial instruments at June 30, 2012 and March 31, 2012 are as follows:

	June 30, 2012
	Carrying Amount		Level 1		Level 2		Level 3
Cash and cash equivalents	$	953	$	953	$	—	$	—

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements [Abstract]

Presentation of Comprehensive Income

Presentation of Comprehensive Income

In June 2011, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued authoritative guidance included in Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 220, Comprehensive Income, related to the presentation of comprehensive income. Specifically, the new guidance allows an entity to present components of net income and other comprehensive income in one continuous statement, referred to as the statement of comprehensive income, or in two separate, but consecutive statements. The new guidance eliminates the current option to report other comprehensive income and its components in the statement of changes in equity. While the new guidance changes the presentation of comprehensive income, there are no changes to the components that are recognized in net income or other comprehensive income under current accounting guidance. The adoption of this disclosure-only guidance will not have an impact on the Company’s consolidated financial results and was effective for the Company on April 1, 2012.

Goodwill Impairment Testing

Goodwill Impairment Testing

In September 2011, the FASB issued authoritative guidance in ASC 350, Intangibles – Goodwill and Other, intended to simplify goodwill impairment testing. Entities will be allowed to perform a qualitative assessment on goodwill impairment to determine whether it is more likely than not (defined as having a likelihood of more than 50 percent) that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount as a basis for determining whether it is necessary to perform the two-step goodwill impairment test. This guidance is effective for goodwill impairment tests performed in interim and annual periods for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2011, or the Company’s third quarter of fiscal 2012. The adoption of this authoritative guidance did not have a material effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

Balance Sheet Disclosures about Offsetting Assets and Liabilities

Balance Sheet Disclosures about Offsetting Assets and Liabilities

In December 2011, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2011-11, Balance Sheet (Topic 210): Disclosures about Offsetting Assets and Liabilities. The update requires an entity to disclose information about offsetting and related arrangements to enable users of its financial statements to understand the effect of those arrangements on its financial position. The amendment will be effective for annual reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2013, and interim periods within those annual periods. We do not anticipate that the adoption of ASU 2011-11 will have a material effect on our consolidated financial statements and disclosures.

Income Taxes

Note 9. Income Taxes

The Company’s provision for income taxes as a percentage of pretax losses from continuing operations (“effective tax rate”) was 38.6% for the three months ended June 30, 2012, as compared to 38.5% of pretax earnings from continuing operations for the three months ended June 30, 2011. Generally, fluctuations in the effective tax rate are primarily due to changes in state taxes.

In accordance with the provisions of ASC 740, Income Taxes, we recognize in our financial statements only those tax positions that meet the more-likely-than-not-recognition threshold. We establish tax reserves for uncertain tax positions that do not meet this threshold. Interest and penalties associated with income tax matters are included in the provision for income taxes in our consolidated statements of operations. Our accrual for interest and penalties was $21 upon adoption of ASC 740 and at June 30, 2012.

On June 7, 2012, the Company entered into the Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (the “New Credit Agreement”) with certain lenders and a bank acting as administrative agent for the lenders which are more fully described in Note 8 “Long-term Debt” of the notes to our consolidated financial statements in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2012. The New Credit Agreement modified certain terms and conditions of the First Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (the “Prior Credit Agreement”) dated August 27, 2010 with such lenders. The Prior Credit Agreement provided the Company with total borrowings of up to $110,000, consisting of (i) a secured term loan with a principal amount of $80,000 and (ii) a revolving credit facility up to $30,000. The Prior Credit Agreement was used to repay a previous term loan and to fund the acquisition of AVID. The New Credit Agreement provides the Company with total borrowings of up to $76,000, consisting of (i) a secured term loan with a principal amount of $51,000 and (ii) a secured revolving credit facility, which amounts may be borrowed, repaid and re-borrowed up to $25,000.

The New Credit Agreement, which expires June 30, 2014, shall be used to finance the working capital needs and general corporate purposes of the Company and for permitted acquisitions. Under the New Credit Agreement, the term loan matures as follows; (i) $1,000 on September 30, 2012, December 31, 2012 and March 31, 2013, (ii) $2,000 on June 30, 2013 and September 30, 2013, (iii) $2,250 on December 31, 2013 and March 31, 2014 and (iv) $39,500 on June 30, 2014. Both the term loan and the revolving credit facility bear interest at LIBOR plus up to 3.5% and LIBOR plus 4% under the terms of the Prior and New Credit Agreements, respectively. The average interest rate on the term loan under the New Credit Agreement and Prior Credit Agreement approximated 3.91% and 3.25%, during the three months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively, and the average interest rate on the revolving credit facility under the New Credit Agreement and Prior Credit Agreement approximated 4.58% and 5.25%, during the three months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively.

Earnings Per Share [Abstract]

Earnings Per Share

Note 10. Earnings Per Share

Basic earnings per share are based on the weighted average number of common shares outstanding without consideration of potential common shares. Diluted earnings per share are based on the weighted average number of common and potential common shares outstanding. The calculation takes into account the shares that may be issued upon exercise of stock options, reduced by the shares that may be repurchased with the funds received from the exercise, based on the average prices during the periods. Excluded from the calculation of earnings per share are options to purchase 1,312,503 shares for the three months ended June 30, 2012 and 1,218,687 shares for the three months ended June 30, 2011, as their inclusion would not have been dilutive.

The following is a reconciliation of the numerator and denominator of the basic and diluted net earnings per share computations for the three months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively.
