REGAN HOLDING CORP. AND SUBSIDIARIES
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)

1.

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying Consolidated Financial Statements are prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and include the accounts of Regan Holding Corp. (the “Company”) and its wholly owned subsidiaries.  All intercompany transactions have been eliminated.

The Consolidated Financial Statements are unaudited but reflect all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments which are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair statement of the Company’s consolidated financial position and results of operations.  The results for the three months ended March 31, 2007, are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the entire year.  These unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements should be read in conjunction with the audited Consolidated Financial Statements included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2006, which was filed by the Company with the Securities and Exchange Commission on April 2, 2007.

2.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In February 2007, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 159, The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities Including an Amendment of FASB Statement No. 115, which permits entities to choose to measure many financial instruments and certain other items at fair value.  SFAS No. 159 is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007.  The Company is currently evaluating the effect, if any, that implementation of SFAS No. 159 will have on its results of operations and financial condition.

In September 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 157, Fair Value Measurements, which defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value under GAAP, and expands disclosures about fair value measurements.  SFAS No. 157 is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007.  The Company is currently evaluating the effect, if any, that implementation of SFAS No. 157 will have on its results of operations and financial condition.

As the Company incurred net losses in the periods presented, options to purchase 4.1 million and 6.0 million shares of the Company’s common stock as of March 31, 2007 and 2006 were excluded from the computation of diluted net loss per share, as the effect would have been antidilutive.  

4.

Sale of Assets

On January 25, 2007, prospectdigital LLC ("prospectdigital"), an indirect wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, sold certain of its assets, which primarily included fixed assets and other miscellaneous operating assets, to PD Holdings LLC ("PD Holdings").  In addition, PD Holdings agreed to assume certain liabilities of prospectdigital.  The action was taken in a continuing effort to reduce the Company’s operating expenses, as prospectdigital continued to sustain losses through the date of sale.

Lynda Regan, Chief Executive Officer, and R. Preston Pitts, President, Chief Operating Officer and Chief Financial Officer of the Company, are the primary owners of PD Holdings.  In connection with the sale, the Company also entered into a service agreement with PD Holdings, whereby subsidiaries of the Company will provide certain administrative services to PD Holdings, for a fee equal to the cost of the services provided.

Prospectdigital received $116,000 in consideration of the sale, which was greater than the estimated fair value of the assets of prospectdigital being sold, as determined by a third-party independent valuation.  The amount of consideration was approved by the Board of Directors of the Company.

Prospectdigital is being reported as a discontinued operation for the three months ended March 31, 2007 and 2006.  We incurred $189,000 loss on the sale of prospectdigital’s assets.

5.

Income Taxes

The rate of provision for income taxes for the three months ended March 31, 2007 and 2006 differs from the federal and state statutory rate primarily due to an increase in the valuation allowance against existing deferred tax assets in the amount of $1.0 million and $1.1 million.

6.

Loan Payable

During the three months ended March 31, 2007, the Company obtained loans from its investment broker.  The loans bear interest at the lender's base lending rate plus a surcharge based on the amount of the loans  (9.5% at March 31, 2007), and are collateralized by the Company's investment portfolio.  As of March 31, 2007, $1.1 million remained payable under this arrangement.

7 .

Subsequent Events

On April 12, 2007, Legacy Marketing Group, the primary operating subsidiary of Regan Holding Corp., amended certain terms of the credit agreement (the “Credit Agreement”) with Washington National Insurance Company dated July 20, 2006.  The amendment was effected through the execution on April 12, 2007, of Amendment No. 1 to the Credit Agreement ( the Credit Agreement, as amended by Amendment No. 1, the “Amended Agreement”) and (1) extended the final maturity of the loan under the Credit Agreement from April 1, 2012, to December 31, 2012; (2) changed certain of the requirements for mandatory prepayments under the Credit Agreement; (3) changed certain terms of the financial covenants specified in the Credit Agreement ; and (4) revised certain definitions contained in the Credit Agreement.  As of March 31, 2007, the balance due under the Credit Agreement was $6.0 million.

Pursuant to the terms of the Amended Agreement, beginning April 1, 2008, Legacy Marketing Group will be required to make quarterly principal payments on the Term Loan equal to a percentage of the outstanding principal balance of the Term Loan as of June 30, 2007, as follows:  3.75% of the balance for the first four payments, 5.0% of the balance for the next twelve payments and 6.25% of the balance for the final four payments.  The quarterly principal payments will be reduced, in order of maturity, by any optional prepayments by Legacy Marketing Group or prepayments resulting from prepayment events specified in the Amended Agreement.  Additionally, beginning September 30, 2008, Legacy Marketing Group will be required to semi-annually prepay the Term Loan on March 31 and September 30 in an amount equal to fifty percent of the Company’s excess cash flow (as defined in the Amended Agreement) for the immediately preceding six month periods ended December 31 and June 30, subject to certain conditions specified in the Amended Agreement.  Interest on the unpaid principal balance of the Term Loan is currently payable on a monthly basis and accrues at the LIBOR-based rate (as defined in the Credit Agreement) plus 3.5%, which was 8.82% as of March 31, 2007.  The principal balance and accrued interest on the Term Loan is payable in full by December 31, 2012.

The Term Loan is primarily secured by Regan Holding Corp.’s bank and securities accounts, equipment and investment property, and Legacy Marketing Group’s obligations are currently guaranteed by Regan Holding Corp., Legacy Advisory Services, Inc., Imagent Online LLC and certain shareholders of Regan Holding Corp.  In addition, Legacy Marketing Group is required to comply with other financial and non-financial covenants specified in the Credit Agreement.  In the event of default under the Credit Agreement, the entire balance of the Term Loan would become immediately payable .

Item 2.

Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations


Forward-Looking Statements

Certain statements contained in this document, including Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations, that are not historical facts, constitute “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995.  Such forward-looking statements involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors that may cause the actual results or performance of Regan Holding Corp. and its businesses to be materially different from those expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements.  These risks, uncertainties and factors include, among other things, the following: general market conditions and the changing interest rate environment; the interruption, deterioration, or termination of our relationships with the insurance carriers who provide our products or the agents who market and sell them; the ability to develop and market new products to keep up with the evolving industry in which we operate; increased governmental regulation, especially regulations affecting insurance, reinsurance, and holding companies; the ability to attract and retain talented and productive personnel; the ability to effectively fund our working capital requirements; the risk of substantial litigation or insurance claims; and other factors referred to in Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations located in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2006.

Regan Holding Corp. assumes no obligation to update forward-looking statements to reflect actual results or changes in or additions to the factors affecting such forward-looking statements.

Recent Industry Developments

During the past few years, several federal, state and insurance self-regulatory organization proposals have been made that could affect our business.  As discussed below, a few of these proposals have become effective, and others may be made or adopted.

In 2005, the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) informed certain issuers of equity-indexed annuities that it is examining whether such annuities need to be registered under the Securities Act of 1933.  Also in 2005, the National Association of Securities Dealers (“NASD”) issued guidance to its members indicating that broker-dealers regulated by the NASD have certain responsibilities with respect to the offer and sale of equity-indexed annuities, including an obligation to determine the suitability of such products for their customers, regardless of whether equity-indexed annuities are deemed to be securities.  Finally, some state insurance regulators are considering whether additional suitability regulations should be implemented with respect to all sales of fixed annuities, particularly with respect to senior citizens.  In California, Commissioner Garamendi issued a letter in 2005, to California life insurance companies urging them to develop suitability standards for the sale of annuity products to seniors.

Our core business consists of selling fixed annuity products, on behalf of insurance carriers, through a network of independent insurance producers (“Producers”).  If the initiatives undertaken by California and other states, the Securities and Exchange Commission or the NASD with respect to equity-indexed and other annuities result in new regulation or legislation, our operations and those of our Producers could be adversely affected.  We are unable to predict whether, or which, of these initiatives will result in new laws or regulations, or whether other initiatives may affect our business and the demand for fixed annuity products marketed by Legacy Marketing.  If such initiatives result in new regulation or laws, they could have a material adverse effect on the insurance industry in general or on our financial condition and results of operations.

In recent years, the U.S. insurance regulatory framework has come under increased scrutiny.  Some state legislatures have considered laws that may alter or increase state regulation of insurance, reinsurance, and holding companies.  Moreover, the National Association of Insurance Commissioners and state insurance regulators regularly re-examine existing laws and regulations, often focusing on modifications to holding company regulations, interpretations of existing laws, and the development of new laws.  Changes in these laws and regulations or their interpretation could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition or results of operations.  In addition, the U.S. Congress and insurance regulatory groups have recently held hearings on, and the U.S. Congress has in the past considered statutes that would impose certain national uniform standards and repeal the McCarran-Ferguson antitrust exemption for the business of insurance.  The U.S. Congress could adopt laws or regulations that could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition or results of operations.




10



Legacy Financial is registered as a broker-dealer with, and is subject to regulation by, the SEC, NASD, Municipal Securities Rulemaking Board, and various state agencies. This regulation covers matters such as capital requirements, recordkeeping and reporting requirements, and employee-related matters, including qualification and licensing of supervisory and sales personnel.  Any proceeding alleging violation of, or noncompliance with, laws and regulations applicable to Legacy Financial could harm its business, financial condition, results of operations, and business prospects. In addition, changes in federal legislation, state legislation, court decisions and administrative policies could significantly and adversely affect the securities industry in general and Legacy Financial’s business in particular.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In February 2007, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 159, The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities Including an Amendment of FASB Statement No. 115, which permits entities to choose to measure many financial instruments and certain other items at fair value.  SFAS No. 159 is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007.  The Company is currently evaluating the effect, if any, that implementation of SFAS No. 159 will have on its results of operations and financial condition.

In September 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 157, Fair Value Measurements, which defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value under GAAP, and expands disclosures about fair value measurements.  SFAS No. 157 is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007.  The Company is currently evaluating the effect, if any, that implementation of SFAS No. 157 will have on its results of operations and financial condition.

Results of Operations

We had a consolidated net loss from continuing operations of $2. 3 million in the three months ended March 31, 2007, compared to a consolidated net loss from continuing operations of $2. 6 million in the same period in 2006.  Total revenue remained flat, at $6. 3 million, in the three months ended March 31, 2007, compared to the same period in 2006, primarily as an increase in marketing allowances and commissions of $431,000 was offset by a decrease in administrative fees revenue of $374,000.  

The increase in marketing allowances and commission overrides during the three months ended March 31, 2007, was primarily attributable to sales of new products issued by Washington National Insurance Company (“Washington National”), an unaffiliated insurance carrier.  We began marketing Washington National products in March 2006.   

The decrease in administrative fees revenue was primarily due to the transition of the administration of certain IL Annuity and Insurance Company (“IL Annuity”) insurance contracts to AmerUs Annuity Group Co. (“Amerus”) upon expiration of the administrative agreement with IL Annuity, effective April 30, 2006.  The expiration of the administrative agreement does not affect the commissions earned by Legacy Marketing on additional premium received or assets under management with respect to the underlying IL Annuity insurance contracts.  

During the three months ended March 31, 2007 and 2006, Legacy Marketing sold and administered products primarily on behalf of three unaffiliated insurance carriers:  Washington National, American National Insurance Company (“American National”), and Transamerica Life and Annuity Company (“Tranamerica”). As indicated below, the agreements with these carriers generated a significant portion of our total consolidated revenue:

Selling, general and administrative expenses decreased $556,000 (7%) during the three months ended March 31, 2007, compared to the same period in 2006, mainly due to a decrease in salaries and related benefits expense as a result of reduced headcount.  

We have established a valuation allowance related primarily to our federal and state deferred tax assets, which increased $ 1.0 million and $1.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2007 and 2006.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Our cash provided by or used in operating activities generally follows the trend in our revenue and operating results.  Our cash used in operating activities in the three months ended March 31, 2007 and 2006 of $3.1 million and $1.8 million was primarily the result of our net loss, partially offset by non-cash charges such as depreciation and amortization and losses on the sale of prospectdigital’s assets.  We also paid incentive bonuses to our producers in the three months ended March 31, 2007, which is reflected in the decrease in the accounts payable and accrued liabilities of $1.1 million.  Other uses of cash during the three months ended March 31, 2006, consisted of gains on trading securities, partially offset by proceeds from the sales of trading securities.  

Net cash used in investing activities of $165,000 and $743,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2007 and 2006, consisted primarily of purchases of fixed assets, partially offset in 2007 by proceeds from the sale of prospectdigital’s assets and repayments of notes receivable.  

Net cash provided by financing activities of $1.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2007, primarily consisted of proceeds from loans received from our investment broker.  Net cash used in financing activities during the three months ended March 31, 2006, of $81,000 reflected repurchases of our redeemable common stock and payments of notes payable.

On July 20, 2006, Legacy Marketing Group, our primary operating subsidiary, entered into a credit agreement (the “Agreement”) with Washington National Insurance Company (the “Lender”), which was subsequently amended on April 12, 2007.  Pursuant to the terms of the Agreement, as amended, the Lender ma de a non-revolving multiple advance term loan (the “Term Loan”) to Legacy Marketing Group totaling $6.0 million.  As of March 31, 2007, the balance due under this Agreement was $6.0 million.

Pursuant to the terms of Amendment No. 1 to the Agreement (the “Amended Agreement”),  beginning April 1, 2008, Legacy Marketing Group will be required to make quarterly principal payments on the Term Loan equal to a percentage of the outstanding principal balance of the Term Loan as of June 30, 2007, as follows:  3.75% of the balance for the first four payments, 5.0% of the balance for the next twelve payments and 6.25% of the balance for the final four payments.  The quarterly principal payments will be reduced, in order of maturity, by any optional prepayments by Legacy Marketing Group or prepayments resulting from prepayment events specified in the Amended Agreement.  Additionally, beginning September 30, 2008, Legacy Marketing Group will be required to semi-annually prepay the Term Loan on March 31 and September 30 in an amount equal to fifty percent of the Company’s excess cash flow (as defined in the Amended Agreement) for the immediately preceding six month periods ended December 31 and June 30, subject to certain conditions specified in the Amended Agreement.  Interest on the unpaid principal balance of the Term Loan is currently payable on a monthly basis and accrues at the LIBOR-based rate (as defined in the Agreement) plus 3.5%, which was 8.82% as of March 31, 2007.  The principal balance and accrued interest on the Term Loan is payable in full by December 31, 2012.

The Term Loan is primarily secured by our bank and securities accounts, equipment and investment property, and Legacy Marketing Group’s obligations are currently guaranteed by Regan Holding Corp., Legacy Advisory Services, Inc., Imagent Online LLC and certain shareholders of Regan Holding Corp.  In addition, Legacy Marketing Group is required to comply with other financial and non-financial covenants specified in the Agreement.  In the event of default under the Agreement, the entire balance of the Term Loan would become immediately payable unless Legacy Marketing Group obtains a waiver from the Lender.

We used $3.1 million of cash in our operations and incurred consolidated net losses of $2.5 million during the three months ended March 31, 2007.  If our consolidated net losses continue, a cash shortfall could ultimately occur.  To address this issue, during 2006, we lowered our cost structure by reducing our employee headcount.  In January 2007, we exited the prospectdigital business and disposed of its assets.  This action eliminated approximately $1.2 million of annual cash use.  In addition, we intend to continue lowering costs by refining our business model to focus on higher value added activities.  This will include multiple initiatives to increase efficiencies.  Certain activities may be eliminated completely; other activities may be restructured.  We have also restructured a portion of our debt, which enabled us to defer our obligation to begin making scheduled principal payments until March 2008 and improved our liquidity by allowing us to leverage certain assets the use of which was previously restricted by the debt agreement.  We are also in negotiations to sell certain assets, which sales, if successful, will result in additional cash inflows.  In the event that a cash shortfall does occur, we believe that adequate financing could be obtained to meet our cash flow needs.  However, there can be no assurances that such financing would be available on favorable terms.
