FORWARD LOOKING STATEMENTS

Statements made by us in this report and in other reports and statements released by us that are not historical facts constitute “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, Section 21 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. These forward-looking statements are necessarily estimates reflecting the best judgment of senior management and express our opinions about trends and factors which may impact future operating results. You can identify these and other forward-looking statements by the use of words such as “may,” “will,” “should,” “expects,” “plans,” “anticipates,” “believes,” “estimates,” “predicts,” “intends,” “potential,” “continue,” or the negative of such terms, or other comparable terminology. Such statements rely on a number of assumptions concerning future events, many of which are outside of our control, and involve risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from opinions and expectations. Any such forward-looking statements, whether made in this report or elsewhere, should be considered in context with the various disclosures made by us about our businesses including, without limitation, the risk factors discussed below. Although we believe our expectations are based on reasonable assumptions, judgments, and estimates, forward-looking statements involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties, contingencies, and other factors that could cause our or our industry's actual results, level of activity, performance or achievement to differ materially from those discussed in or implied by any forward-looking statements made by or on the Company and could cause our financial condition, results of operations, or cash flows to be materially adversely affected. Except as required under the federal securities laws and the rules and regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”), we do not have any intention or obligation to update publicly any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events, changes in assumptions, or otherwise.

NOTES TO CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(UNAUDITED)

Note 1.  Basis of Presentation, Critical Accounting Policies, Estimates, and Assumptions.

The condensed financial statements included herein are unaudited. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles have been condensed or omitted pursuant to the rules and regulations of the SEC. In the opinion of the management, the accompanying statements reflect adjustments necessary to present fairly the financial position, results of operations and cash flows for those periods indicated, and contain adequate disclosure to make the information presented not misleading. Adjustments included herein are of a normal, recurring nature unless otherwise disclosed in the Notes to the condensed financial statements. The condensed financial statements included herein should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and Notes thereto included in Lapolla’s latest annual report on Form 10-K, including any amendments thereto, in order to fully understand the basis of presentation. Results of operations for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations for a full year. Certain amounts in the prior years have been reclassified to conform to the 2010 unaudited condensed financial statement presentation. Reference is made to Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations on page 14. Risk factors that could impact results are discussed in Part II – Other Information, Item 1A – Risk Factors on page 19. Refer also to the Company’s 2009 Annual Report on Form 10-K, including any amendments thereto, for a description of major accounting policies. There have been no material changes to these accounting policies during the quarter ended March 31, 2010.

Reclassifications

Certain reclassifications of prior year amounts have been made to conform to the current year presentation.

Derivatives and Fair Value

The Company recognizes derivatives on the balance sheet at fair value with changes in the values of these derivative liabilities reflected in the statements of operations. The fair value of our derivative liabilities as of January 1, 2010 was estimated to be $571,864. The fair value of our derivative liabilities as of March 31, 2010 was estimated to be $414,743. We review the underlying assumptions on our derivative liabilities quarterly and they are subject to change based primarily on management’s assessment at that time. Accordingly, changes to these assessments could materially affect the valuation, which could positively or negatively affect our financial performance in future periods. Disclosures related to our derivative liabilities are included in Note 10 to our financial statements.

Income Taxes

The Company’s provision for income taxes is determined using the U.S. federal statutory rate. The Company recognizes deferred tax assets and liabilities for temporary differences between the financial reporting basis and the tax basis of our assets and liabilities along with net operating loss and tax credit carryovers. The Company’s deferred tax asset was approximately $21.7 Million and $21.8 Million at March 31, 2010 and December 31, 2009, respectively. The Company recorded a valuation allowance against its deferred tax assets to reduce the net carrying value to an amount that the Company believes is more likely than not to be realized. As a result, the Company recorded a valuation allowance against the deferred tax asset of $21.7 Million and $21.8 Million at March 31, 2010 and December 31, 2009, respectively. If the Company reduces the valuation allowance against its available deferred tax asset, the Company’s operating results and financial condition will be positively affected in future periods.

Depreciable Lives of Property, Plant and Equipment

Property, plant and equipment is recorded at cost and depreciated using the straight-line method, which deducts equal amounts of the cost of each asset from earnings every year over its estimated economic useful life.  Economic useful life is the duration of time an asset is expected to be productively employed by the Company, which may be less than its physical life. Assumptions on the following factors, among others, affect the determination of estimated economic useful life: wear and tear, obsolescence, technical standards, contract life, market demand, competitive position, raw material availability, and geographic location. The estimated economic useful life of an asset is monitored to determine its appropriateness. Net property, plant and equipment totaled $2,505,047 and depreciation expense totaled $102,450 as of and for the quarter ended March 31, 2010. Net property, plant and equipment totaled $2,422,499 depreciation expense totaled $478,785 as of and for the year ended December 31, 2009. The depreciable lives of our manufacturing plant for our Foam and Coatings segments is 20 years. The depreciable lives of our vehicles within our Foam and Coatings segments are principally 5 years. These depreciable lives have been determined based on historical experience combined with judgment on future assumptions such as technological advances, potential obsolescence, competitors’ actions, etc. Management monitors its assumptions and may potentially need to adjust depreciable life as circumstances change.

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets

Property, Plant and Equipment

Property, plant, and equipment held for use is grouped for impairment testing at the lowest level for which there is an identifiable cash flow. Impairment testing of the asset group occurs whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the assets may not be recoverable. Such circumstances would include a significant decrease in the market value of a long-lived asset grouping, a significant adverse change in the manner in which the asset grouping is being used or in its physical condition, a history of operating or cash flow losses associated with the use of the asset grouping, or changes in the expected useful life of the long-lived assets. If such circumstances are determined to exist, an estimate of undiscounted future cash flows produced by that asset group is compared to the carrying value to determine whether impairment exists. If an asset group is determined to be impaired, the loss is measured based on the difference between the asset group’s fair value and its carrying value. An estimate of the asset group’s fair value is based on the discounted value of its estimated cash flows. Assets to be disposed of by sale are reported at the lower of carrying amount or fair value less cost to sell.  The assumptions underlying cash flow projections represent our best estimates at the time of the impairment review. Factors that we must estimate include industry and market conditions, sales volume and prices, costs to produce, etc. Changes in key assumptions or actual conditions that differ from estimates could result in an impairment charge. Management believes it uses reasonable and supportable assumptions when performing impairment reviews and cannot predict the occurrence of future events and circumstances that could result in impairment charges.

Goodwill

Goodwill represents the excess of the aggregate purchase price over the fair value of net tangible and identifiable intangible asset of an acquired business. Goodwill was $4,234,828 at March 31, 2010 and December 31, 2009. The Company operates two reporting units or segments, Foam and Coatings. Disclosures related to goodwill are included in Note 7 to the financial statements. The Company evaluates goodwill for impairment on an annual basis, or more frequently if Management believes indicators of impairment exist, by comparing the carrying value of each of reportable segment to their estimated fair values. The annual evaluation is performed in the fourth quarter of each calendar year. The impairment test requires the Company to compare the fair value of each reporting unit to its carrying value, including assigned goodwill. As of March 31, 2010, the Company does not believe any indicators of impairment exist for goodwill that would require additional analysis before the 2010 annual evaluation.

Other Intangible Assets

The Company had other intangible assets, net of $1,397,740 and $1,464,694 at March 31, 2010 and December 31, 2009, respectively, consisting primarily of customer lists, product formulations, trade names, and non-competes that were acquired as part of business combinations. Amortization of other intangible assets totaled $66,954 and $271,540 at March 31, 2010 and December 31, 2009, respectively. Other intangible assets are tested for impairment as part of the long-lived asset grouping impairment tests. Impairment testing of the asset group occurs whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the assets may not be recoverable. See impairment discussion above under Property, Plant and Equipment for a description of how impairment losses are determined. Disclosures related to other intangible assets are included in Note 7 to the financial statements. Significant management judgment is required in the forecasts of future operating results that are used in the Company’s impairment evaluations. The estimates used are consistent with the plans and estimates that Management uses to manage its business. It is possible, however, that the plans may change and estimates used may prove to be inaccurate. If the Company’s actual results, or the plans and estimates used in future impairment analyses, are lower than the original estimates used to assess the recoverability of these assets, then the Company could incur future impairment charges, which would adversely affect financial performance.

Revenue Recognition

Sales are recognized as risk and title to products transfers to the customer (which generally occurs at the time shipment is made), the sales price is fixed or determinable, and collectability is reasonably assured. Sales channels include direct sales, distributors, and independent representatives. Amounts billed for shipping and handling are included in sales (freight). Freight included in sales was $51,447 and $29,374 for the quarters ended March 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively. Costs incurred for shipping and handling are included in cost of sales. Sales are recorded net of sales tax.  Freight included in cost of sales was $222,486 and $143,429 at March 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively.

Share Based Compensation

The Company accounts for stock based compensation by measuring and recognizing the cost of employee or director services received in exchange for an award of equity instruments based on the grant-date fair value of the award. The fair value of share based awards is estimated at the grant date using a lattice-based valuation model and the portion that is ultimately expected to vest is recognized as compensation cost over the requisite service period.  The determination of fair value is affected by the Company’s stock price as well as assumptions regarding a number of complex and subjective variables, including expected stock price volatility, risk-free interest rate, expected dividends and projected employee stock option exercise behaviors. Share based compensation expense was $(28,485) and $136,116 for the quarters ended March 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively. Certain unvested and partially expensed stock options were canceled during the first quarter of 2010, which resulted in a credit for the period then ended. If additional stock options are granted, financial performance may be negatively affected, and if outstanding stock options are forfeited or canceled, resulting in non-vesting of such stock options, financial performance may be positively affected. In either instance, the Company’s financial performance may change depending on stock option activities in future periods.

Allowance for Doubtful Accounts

The Company presents trade receivables, net of allowances for doubtful accounts, to ensure trade receivables are not overstated due to uncollectible accounts. Allowances, when required, are calculated based on a detailed review of certain individual customer accounts and an estimation of the overall economic conditions affecting our customer base. The Company reviews a customer’s credit history before extending credit. The allowance for doubtful accounts was $730,352 and $734,962 at March 31, 2010 and December 31, 2009, respectively. If the financial condition of customers were to deteriorate based on worsening overall economic conditions, resulting in an impairment of their ability to make payments to the Company, then additional allowances may be required in future periods, which would adversely affect the Company’s financial performance.

Advertising and Marketing

Advertising and marketing costs are generally expensed as incurred. Expenditures for certain advertising and marketing activities related to trade shows, trade magazines, and television commercials, are deferred within the Company’s fiscal year when the benefits clearly extend beyond the interim period in which the expenditure is made, generally not to exceed 90 days. Other advertising and marketing expenditures that do not meet the deferred criteria are expensed when the advertising occurs. During the first quarter of 2010, the Company incurred $215,000 for certain advertising costs which benefits extend clearly beyond the quarter then ended, of which $115,135 was expensed, with the remaining $99,865 to be expensed when the Company realizes the benefit over a 90 day amortization period. At March 31, 2010 and 2009, deferred advertising costs were approximately $99,865 and $118,816, respectively. Total advertising and marketing costs expensed were $280,994 and $301,740 for the quarter ended March 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively.

Net Income (Loss) Per Common Share

Basic income (loss) per share is based upon net income (loss) applicable to common shares after preferred dividends and the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted income (loss) per share reflects the effect of assumed conversions of convertible securities and exercise of stock options only in periods in which such effect would have been dilutive.

Note 2.  Liquidity.

Although the Company has stockholders equity of $3,452,654 at March 31, 2010 and net income of $164,424, it also has an accumulated deficit of $78,533,066 and working capital deficit of $5,277,433, for the quarter then ended. As a result, there are concerns about the liquidity of the Company. The Company has an outstanding credit facility with ComVest Capital LLC (“ComVest”) consisting of a convertible term note (“Convertible Note”) with an outstanding balance of $2.3 Million and revolving credit note (“Revolving Note”) with an outstanding balance of $8.2 Million, both of which mature on August 31, 2010 (“Credit Facility”), which are classified as current in the accompanying balance sheet at March 31, 2010. Management is currently undergoing talks and negotiations with several interested institutions, as well as ComVest, to replace and/or modify the Credit Facility. If needed, the Chairman has provided Management with a financial commitment for up to $11 Million for the 2010 year. As a result, Management believes that the cash on hand, cash generated from operations, and the 2010 financial commitment from the Chairman, will be sufficient to fund operations through fiscal 2010.

Note 9.  Revolving Credit and Term Loan Agreement and Related Agreements.

Background

The Company entered into a Revolving Credit and Term Loan Agreement on February 21, 2007 with ComVest, which has been amended from time to time (“Loan Agreement”), under which ComVest agreed to loan up to $9,500,000 under the Revolving Note and $3,000,000 under the Convertible Note, and Lapolla agreed to issue certain warrants (“Warrants”) to ComVest and register the underlying shares issuable under the Convertible Note and the Warrants. On June 30, 2008, the Company and ComVest amended and restated the Loan Agreement, Revolving Note, and Convertible Note, amended the existing Warrants, and issued a new warrant. The modified debt instruments were recorded at fair value of $851,917 on June 30, 2008. The modified debt’s effective interest rate is approximately 30%. The resulting discounts, as noted below, are being amortized to interest expense using the effective interest method over the term of the agreements. A brief summary of material terms of the ComVest agreements described above are provided below.

A.  Loan Agreement – The Loan Agreement contains certain material repayment covenants relating to the Revolving Note (triggered by a Borrowing Base calculation less than the balance outstanding) and Convertible Note (triggered by failure to make principal repayments) (collectively, the “Notes”), as well as a limitation on the amount of capital expenditures ($500,000 for 2009 and 2010), which if not complied with, would be considered an event of default. If a repayment event of default were to occur under the Notes, and said event of default was not timely cured, whether by waiver by ComVest or otherwise by the Company, the financial obligations outstanding under the Notes, at the option of ComVest, could be accelerated and become immediately due and payable.  At March 31, 2010, the Company was in compliance with its Loan Agreement and related Notes.

B.  Revolving Credit Note – Under the Revolving Note, ComVest agreed to provide a secured revolving credit facility, from June 30, 2008 to August 31, 2010, in an aggregate principal amount not to exceed, the lesser of (i) the borrowing base (an amount determined by a detailed calculation equal to 85% of eligible accounts receivable, plus 50% of eligible inventory), or (ii) $9,500,000. The Revolving Note bears interest according to a coverage ratio formula ranging from 1.0 to 2.0 and Prime rate ranging from Prime plus 1% to Prime plus 0% (7.5% at March 31, 2010). At March 31, 2010, the Borrowing Base calculation was $8,212,916 and after subtracting the balance outstanding of $8,366,830 under the Revolving Note, an amount of $153,914 was due to ComVest and paid by the Company. Unamortized discount was $281,211 at March 31, 2010.

C.  Convertible Term Note - The Convertible Note, as amended and restated, was increased to $3,000,000, bears interest at 10% per annum, the principal is payable (i) in thirteen (13) equal monthly installments of $83,333.33 each, due and payable on the first day of each calendar month commencing July 1, 2009 and continuing through and including August 1, 2010, and (ii) in the final installment due and payable on August 31, 2010 in an amount equal to the entire remaining principal balance, and is convertible optionally by ComVest at any time or mandatorily by Lapolla subject to satisfaction of certain conditions to common stock at the rate of $.77 per share. The Convertible Note is personally guaranteed by the Chairman of the Board. If any of the installments are not met by the Company, the Chairman’s personal guarantee would then take affect. At March 31, 2010, the balance outstanding under the Convertible Note was $2,500,000 and unamortized discount was $264,163.

D.  Warrants - The Warrants are for the purchase of an aggregate of 2,500,000 shares of common stock, of which 1,500,000 are exercisable at a price of $.60 per share and 1,000,000 are exercisable at a price of $.78 per share, expire on June 30, 2013, and have an aggregate fair value of $2,065,886.

E.  Registration Rights – The Company determined that no liability was recognizable at March 31, 2010 for registration payment arrangements based on the fact that the Company’s outstanding Registration Statement was effective at March 31, 2010.

Note 10.  Derivatives and Fair Value.

The Company has evaluated the application of GAAP with respect to the embedded conversion feature associated with the ComVest Convertible Term Note and associated Warrants to purchase common stock and determined these instruments were required to be accounted for as derivatives as of January 1, 2009 due to the down round protection feature on the conversion price and the exercise price. The Company records the fair value of these derivatives on its balance sheet at fair value with changes in the values of these derivatives reflected in the statements of operations as “Gain (Loss) on Derivative Liabilities.”  These derivative instruments are not designated as hedging instruments under GAAP and are disclosed on the balance sheet under “Derivative Liabilities”. At March 31, 2010, all of the Company’s derivative liabilities were categorized as Level 3 fair value assets.

Level 3 Valuation Techniques

Financial assets are considered Level 3 when their fair values are determined using pricing models, discounted cash flow methodologies or similar techniques and at least one significant model assumption or input is unobservable.  Level 3 financial liabilities consist of the embedded conversion feature and freestanding warrants that contain down round provisions for which there is no current market for these securities such that the determination of fair value requires significant judgment or estimation. We have valued the embedded conversion feature and the freestanding warrants using a lattice model, with the assistance of a valuation consultant, for which management understands the methodologies. This model incorporates transaction details such as the Company’s stock price, contractual terms, maturity, risk free rates, as well as assumptions about future financings, volatility, and holder behavior as of January 1, 2010 and March 31, 2010. The primary assumptions include projected annual volatility of 142% and holder exercise targets at 135% of the conversion price for the Convertible Term Note and 150% of exercise price for the warrants, decreasing as the warrants approach maturity. The fair value of the derivatives as of January 1, 2009 upon implementation of EITF 07-05 was estimated by management to be $890,289. Amounts previously recorded to paid-in capital associated with these derivatives of $1,555,420 were reversed and the remaining $665,131 was recorded as a cumulative adjustment to accumulated deficit. The fair value of the derivatives as of March 31, 2010 was estimated to be $414,743. The foregoing assumptions are reviewed quarterly and subject to change based primarily on management’s assessment of the probability of the events described occurring. Accordingly, changes to these assessments could materially affect the valuation.

Financial Assets and Liabilities Measured at Fair Value on a Recurring Basis

(a)  On February 1, 2010, the Company accepted the voluntary redemption of 100 shares of Series D Preferred Stock, par value $1.00, at the stated value of $1,000 per share, from Mr. Brown, a director, for $100,000 in cash.

(b)  On February 19, 2008, Mr. Kurtz, Chairman of the Board and majority stockholders, and Mr. Nadel, a director, entered into a private agreement whereby Mr. Kurtz agreed to transfer approximately 1,084,000 shares, in two installments, of his restricted common stock to Mr. Nadel in order to secure his continued participation required with his role as a Board member for a two year period. The first installment of 500,000 shares was transferred to Mr. Nadel on February 19, 2008 and second installment of 584,000 shares was transferred to Mr. Nadel on February 18, 2009 by Mr. Kurtz. The installments vest one year after the date of each installment. The closing price of the Company’s common stock as traded on the NASDAQ OTCBB on the date of the private agreement was $.70 per share. The grant-date fair value related to this transaction is $758,800. On February 18, 2010, the Company recorded the remaining grant-date fair value compensation cost of $18,800 to complete this plan.

(c)  On March 31, 2010, Mr. Kurtz, Chairman of the Board and majority stockholder, converted $19,000 of indebtedness owed by the Company to him, of which $18,800 represented a loan payable – related party and $200 represented accrued interest related thereto, into 19 shares of Series D Preferred Stock, par value $1.00, at the stated value of $1,000 per share.

For the three month period ended March 31, 2010, the securities that could potentially dilute net income per share in the future that were included in the computation of net income per share – diluted were: (i) 3,458,910 shares issuable upon conversion of the Convertible Note, (ii) 2,500,000 shares issuable upon exercise of warrants, and (iii) 4,569,499 shares issuable upon exercise of vested stock options. For all other periods, basic and diluted net (loss) per share are the same since (a) the Company has reflected net losses for all periods presented and (b) the potential issuance of shares of the Company would be antidilutive. The securities that could potentially dilute net (loss) per share – diluted for March 31, 2009 and net (loss) per share available to common stockholders – basic and diluted for March 31, 2010 and March 31, 2009 in the future that were not included in the computation of net (loss) per share – diluted and net (loss) per share available to common stockholders – basic and diluted were: (i) 3,458,910 and 3,896,104 shares issuable upon conversion of the Convertible Note, (ii) 2,500,000 and 2,500,000 shares issuable upon exercise of warrants, and (iii) 4,569,499 and 3,790,766 shares issuable upon exercise of vested stock options, of common stock for the three months ended March 31, 2010 and March 31, 2009, respectively.

Except for the historical information contained herein, the following discussion contains forward-looking statements that are subject to known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors that may cause our actual results to differ materially from those expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. We discuss some of these risks, uncertainties and other factors throughout this report and provide a reference to additional risks under the caption “Risk Factors” in Item 1A of Part II below. In addition, the following review should be read in connection with the information presented in our financial statements and the related notes for the year ended December 31, 2009, including any amendments thereto.

Outlook

The Company’s outlook is very aggressive, as we expect sales to continue to grow to record levels in 2010. Our optimism is based on our market share gains in the construction and insulation markets being driven by growing consumer awareness about energy efficient foams and coatings. Margin increases as a result of vertical integration and sales growth, coupled with tighter controls on spending are expected to enable us to achieve profitability throughout 2010. Although the markets for our products are highly competitive, we believe that our competitive advantages rooted in our product formulations, credentials, approvals and performance, price structures, as well as technical customer service and widespread availability due to our broad distribution channels, will enable us to continue to achieve record results. In addition, we offer the flexibility, quality of products, and responsiveness that only a smaller company dynamic can provide. For the three month period ended March 31, 2010, Foam and coatings sales have increased by 38%, compared to the same quarter in 2009. We are making significant headway in our Canadian operations which only started to take shape during the latter part of 2009 when we initiated them. From all indications, it appears we are in the midst of a general economic recovery, our energy saving foam and coating product lines are in high demand, and we are on track to substantially exceed our second quarter of 2009 sales at this time.

Performance for the Three Months Ended March 31, 2010 compared to the Three Months Ended March 31, 2009

Overall Results of Operations

Sales

The following is a summary of sales for the three months ended:

   
March 31, 2010
   
March 31, 2009
 
Sales
  $ 13,404,335     $ 9,740,079  

Sales increased $3,664,255, or 37.6%, for the first quarter of 2010 compared to the first quarter of 2009. Foam sales increased $3,411,518, or 40.3%, and Coatings sales increased $252,737, or 19.7%, quarter over quarter, due to continued market penetration and overall consumer demand and awareness. The increase in foam sales continues to be attributed to cost conscious residential and commercial building owners transitioning from traditional insulation to more energy efficient SPF. Our AirTight division had approximately $2.5 Million in sales in the first quarter of 2010 compared to $1.5 Million in sales in the comparable 2009 quarter. Highly volatile energy prices continue to heighten the public’s interest for green building materials and sustainable energy solutions. Management expects coatings sales to pick up throughout 2010 due to pent up demand from the general economic recession in 2009. Pricing changes added approximately $680,000 to sales, while sales volumes increased approximately $2,984,256.

Cost of Sales

Cost of sales increased $2,587,632, or 35%, due to a 37.6% overall increase in sales, of which 40.3% was from our foam segment, and 19.7% was from our coatings segment. We had a 74% increase in freight costs during the first quarter of 2010, along with a 3.3% decrease in material costs. Freight costs escalated in the first quarter of 2010 due to higher trip rates and increased sales volumes.

Gross Profit

Our gross profit increased $1,076,624, or 47% for the first quarter of 2010 compared to the first quarter of 2009, due to our sales growth and decreased material costs, of which 89% resulted from our foam segment and 11% resulted from our coatings segment. Gross margin percentage increased 1.5% quarter over quarter due to manufacturing efficiencies from increased volume and increased purchasing power with key vendor alliances and increased manufacturing efficiencies in both of our segments.

Operating Expenses

Our total operating expenses are comprised of selling, general and administrative expenses, or SG&A, professional fees, depreciation, amortization of other intangible assets, consulting fees, interest expense, interest expense – related party, interest expense – amortization of discount, gain or loss on derivative liability, and other income or expense. These total operating expenses decreased $266,453, or 8%, in the first quarter of 2010 compared to the first quarter of 2009, due to decreases of $186,619 for SG&A, $3,465 for depreciation, $482 for amortization of other intangible assets, $7,197 for consulting, $35,767 for interest expense, and $22,157 for interest expense – related party, other income of $43,518, and a gain on our derivative liability of $31,639, offset by an increase of $24,229 for professional fees and $40,162 for interest expense – amortization of discount.

SG&A decreased $186,619, or 6.7%, due to decreases of $29,417 for advertising, $242,973 for bad debt expense, $26,841 for insurances, $6,462 for investor relations, $25,706 for rents, $164,600 for share based compensation, and $47,860 for travel, offset by increases of $42,560 for marketing, promotions, and trade shows, $37,236 for corporate office expenses, $10,420 for distribution, $125,814 for payroll and related employee benefits, and $141,210 for commissions. The decrease in bad debts in the first quarter of 2010 is from a general economic recovery and tightened credit controls. The decrease in rents is due to closure of our Arizona facility in 2009, offset by our expansion into the Canadian market as well as additional distribution channels throughout the United States to better serve our customers. The increase in marketing, promotions and trade shows was due to broader based marketing plan, including television commercials. Corporate office expenses increased primarily due to an increase in bank and credit card fees. Payroll and benefits increased due to hiring additional staff, primarily sales personnel.

Professional fees increased $24,229, or 18%, from the first quarter of 2010 compared to the first quarter of 2009 due to a legal settlement relating to the closure of our Arizona facility.

Depreciation expense decreased $3,465, or 5%, in the three months ended March 31, 2010 compared to the three months ended March 31, 2009, due primarily to certain assets being fully depreciated.

Amortization of other intangible assets expense decreased $482, or 1%, in the quarter ended March 31, 2010 compared to the quarter ended March 31, 2009, due primarily to certain other intangible assets being fully amortized.

Consulting fees decreased $7,197, or 12%, in the first quarter of 2010 compared to the first quarter of 2009, due to the Company requiring less outside professional services during the period.

Interest expense decreased $35,767, or 14%, in the three months ended March 31, 2010 compared to the prior comparable quarter, due to a lower interest rate on the ComVest revolving credit note during the current period.

Interest expense – related party decreased $22,157, or 99%, in the quarter ended March 31, 2010 compared to the quarter ended March 31, 2009, due to the conversion of the Chairman’s outstanding note and loans payable – related party at the end of the 2009 year.

Interest expense – amortization of discount increased $40,162, or 19%, in the first quarter of 2010 compared to the first quarter of 2009, due to an increase in the amortizable discount associated with our ComVest credit instruments.

We had an increase in the gain on our derivative liability of $31,639, or 25%, in the three months ended March 31, 2010 compared to the three months ended March 31, 2009, due to the maturing of the ComVest convertible term note.

Other income increased $43,518, or 100%, in the quarter ended March 31, 2010 compared to the quarter ended March 31, 2009, due primarily to an increase in the amount of finance charges collected from past due customers during the current period.

Net Income

We had a net income of $164,424 in the first quarter of 2010 compared to a net loss of $1,178,652 in the first quarter of 2009, primarily due to a sales increase of $3,664,255, gross margin percentage increase of 1.5%, operating expense decrease of $266,453, a gain on our derivative liability of $157,121, and an increase in our other income of $43,518. Net income per share was $0.00 in the current quarter compared to a net loss per share of $0.02 in the prior comparable quarter.

Net (loss) Available to Common Stockholders

Net loss available to common stockholders and related loss per share decreased $1,203,159, or 87%, and $0.02, or 100%, in the first quarter of 2010 compared to the first quarter of 2009, respectively, due to net income in the current quarter of $164,424, partially offset by an increase in preferred stock dividends of $139,917 from an increase in the amount of preferred shares outstanding in the current quarter.

Results of Business Segments

The following is a summary of sales by segment at:

Segments
 
March 31, 2010
   
March 31, 2009
 
Foam
  $ 11,871,302     $ 8,459,784  
Coatings
  $ 1,533,033     $ 1,280,296  

Foam Segment

Foam sales increased $3,411,518, or 40.3%, in the first quarter of 2010 compared to the first quarter of 2009, due to cost conscious building owners and consumers continue to seek relief from volatile energy prices, as spray polyurethane foam (SPF) gains market share from traditional insulation systems. Our AirTight Division furthered our market penetration into the foam segment through its training, startup and rig building operations. By providing new market entrants as well as existing insulation companies with the equipment and training to successfully market SPF, sales growth from equipment continues to escalate and the ongoing sales of Lapolla foam has followed. Foam segment equipment sales were $1,257,427 in the first quarter of 2010 compared to $197,775 in the prior comparable quarter. Foam cost of sales increased $2,448,231, or 38.2%, quarter over quarter, due to manufacturing efficiencies from increased volumes, partially offset by reductions in raw material costs from increased purchasing power with key vendor alliances, resulting in an increased gross profit and gross margin percentage. Our foam segment realized a profit of $913,337 in the first quarter of 2010, compared to a loss of $164,214 in the prior comparable period, as targeted market share gains were achieved.

Coatings Segment

Coatings sales increased $252,737, or 19.7%, in the quarter ended March 31, 2010 compared to the quarter ended March 31, 2009, due to a general economic recovery in the roofing construction business and pent up demand from the general economic recession in the prior period. Coatings cost of sales increased $139,400, or 13.6%, in the first quarter of 2010 compared to the first quarter of 2009, due to higher sales volumes. Our coatings segment realized a profit of $97,648 in the first quarter of 2010, compared to a loss of $79,609 in the prior comparable period, as demand increased due to the general economic recovery.

Reportable Segment Profits

We had total segment profits of $1,010,985 in the first quarter of 2010 compared to a net loss of $243,822 in the first quarter of 2009, due primarily to increases in foam sales of $3,441,518, coatings sales of $252,737, and a gross margin percentage increase of 1.5%.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Cash on hand at March 31, 2010 was $25,943 compared to $400,821 at December 31, 2009. Cash flow has improved substantially from the first quarter of 2009 compared to the first quarter of 2010 due to the increased gross margin associated with our increased sales volumes. We have relied solely on the cash generated from our operations from the end of July 2009 to the date of filing this report to operate our business and expect that trend to continue for the foreseeable future. During the first quarter of 2009, we primarily relied on funds from our Chairman of the Board and majority stockholder to operate our business. Although the Company has stockholders equity of $3,452,654 at March 31, 2010 and is relying solely on cash generated from its operations to run its business, there are concerns about the liquidity of the Company at March 31, 2010 based on a working capital deficit of $5,277,432 due to the maturing of the ComVest Credit Facility on August 31, 2010. The outstanding Credit Facility consists of the Convertible Term Note with an outstanding balance of $2.3 Million and Revolving Credit Note with an outstanding balance of $8.2 Million. Management is currently undergoing talks and negotiations with several interested institutions, as well as ComVest, to replace and/or modify the Credit Facility. If needed, the Chairman has provided Management with a financial commitment for up to $11 Million for the 2010 year. As a result, Management believes that the cash on hand, cash generated from operations, and the 2010 financial commitment from the Chairman, will be sufficient to fund operations through fiscal 2010. Notwithstanding the foregoing, we may seek to raise additional capital through private placements of debt, or common or preferred stock with accredited sophisticated investors, to fund our continuing aggressive strategic growth plans and pay off our maturing Credit Facility. If the Company chooses to raise additional capital other than from ComVest, anti-dilution provisions under the Convertible Term Note and Warrants may be triggered if any security sold is convertible into or exchangeable for our common stock based on the price, including conversion price, of the common stock sold, and a 25% of the qualified proceeds raised repayment requirement up to the amount due under the Convertible Term Note will be triggered. The ComVest limitations may adversely impact our ability to raise additional capital.

Net cash provided by our operations was $299,434 for the three months ended March 31, 2010 compared to net cash used in our operations of $1,659,632 for the three months ended March 31, 2009. The cash provided by our operations for the three months ended March 31, 2010 was attributable to our net income for the period, including the effect of adjustments to reconcile net income to cash provided by or used in operating activities and adjusting for non-cash items, offset by increases in trade receivables, inventories, deposits and other non current assets, and decreases in prepaid expenses and other current assets, accounts payable, and accrued expenses and other current liabilities. In the first quarter of 2010, the Company did not borrow any additional funds from the Credit Facility nor from the Chairman of the Board under his 2010 financial commitment, compared to borrowing $1,750,000 from the Chairman under his 2009 financial commitment in the first quarter of 2009. We used the cash generated from our operations for the first quarter of 2010 to make principal repayments of $250,000 to ComVest pursuant to the terms of the Convertible Term Note, paid a director $100,000 in cash for the voluntary redemption of 100 shares of Series D Preferred Stock, paid $90,086 pursuant to the AirTight Asset Purchase promissory note, and purchased $184,998 in property, plant and equipment. Trade receivables, net, increased $363,589, or 4%, due to increased sales, partially offset by increased collections. Inventories increased $218,451, or 5%, due to increased sales, partially offset by more efficient utilization of inventories. Prepaid expenses and other current assets decreased $82,827, or 9%, due to accelerated amortization of deferred advertising, marketing, promotions, and trade show activities to support our 38% growth during the current period. Deposits and other non current assets increased $126,488, or 22%, due to an increase in long term prepaid expenses related to approvals and certifications. Accounts payable increased $156,719, or 3%, due to increases in purchases of finished goods and raw materials, as well as other corporate expenses, to support the current quarter’s growth, partially offset by more efficient utilization of cash. Accrued expenses and other current liabilities increased $359,688, or 17%, due to an increase in accrued payroll, preferred dividends, insurances, and deferred finance charges.

______________________
The information provided in the table above relates to credit instruments, vehicle notes, purchase obligations, and facility leases.

We currently have two material debt covenants: (i) the Company is not allowed to make capital expenditures in excess of $500,000 for the year ended December 31, 2010, and (ii) the Company is not allowed to exceed a borrowing base calculation defined as an amount determined by a detailed calculation equal to 85% of eligible accounts receivable, plus 50% of eligible inventory (“Borrowing Base”). The Borrowing Base calculation determined our maximum allowed outstanding as of March 31, 2010 was $8,212,916 and after subtracting the balance outstanding of $8,366,831 under our Revolving Credit Note at March 31, 2010, we exceeded the Borrowing Base by $153,914. We paid $153,914 to ComVest pursuant to our Loan Agreement and were in compliance with our Credit Facility at March 31, 2010. The Company is required to submit its Borrowing Base calculation to ComVest monthly. If, at any time, the Company’s Borrowing Base calculation is less than the amount outstanding under the Revolving Credit Note, and that amount remains unpaid or is not increased from future Borrowing Base calculations to an amount equal to the balance outstanding under the Revolving Credit Note at any given time, ComVest, in its discretion, may accelerate any and all amounts outstanding under the Credit Facility.

Net cash used in investing activities was $275,084 for March 31, 2010, reflecting an increase of $249,951 when compared to $25,133 for March 31, 2009. We invested $184,998 in new property, plant and equipment during the quarter ended March 31, 2010 compared to $25,133 in the prior comparable quarter. We also paid $90,086 pursuant to our AirTight Asset Purchase promissory note on March 31, 2010. During the first quarter of 2010, property, plant and equipment additions included $63,860 for vehicles (sales personnel), $49,322 for office furniture and equipment, $42,315 for computers and software, and $29,491 for machinery and equipment.

Net cash used in financing activities was $394,042 for the first quarter of 2010 compared to net cash provided by financing activities of $1,719,328 for the three months ended March 31, 2009. We made principal repayments of $250,000 under our Convertible Term Note, reducing our balance owed thereunder to $2,413,361. There are five more scheduled payments of $83,333 and a balloon payment of $1,996,694 due to ComVest under the Convertible Term Note which matures on August 31, 2010. We made $44,042 in principal repayments on our long term debt primarily related to vehicles and paid $100,000 to a director for the voluntary redemption of 100 shares of our Series D Preferred Stock during the first quarter of 2010. We did not borrow any additional funds under our ComVest Credit Facility or our 2010 financial commitment from the Chairman during the quarter ended March 31, 2010, compared to borrowing $1,750,000 from our Chairman during the first quarter of 2009 pursuant to his 2009 financial commitment.

Item 3.  Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.

We do not issue or invest in financial instruments or their derivatives for trading or speculative purposes. Although we maintain limited operations in Canada, our operations are primarily conducted in the United States, and, as such, we are not subject to material foreign currency exchange risks. We have outstanding debt and related interest expense, however, market risk in interest rate exposure in the United States and Canada is currently not material to our operations. We utilize letters of credit to mitigate any risk of collection in our business outside of the United States and Canada.

Item 4.  Controls and Procedures.

Quarterly Disclosure Controls and Procedures Evaluation

We carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Principal Executive Officer and our Principal Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of March 31, 2010, the end of the quarterly period covered by this report. Based on the foregoing, our Principal Executive Officer and our Principal Financial Officer concluded that, as of the end of the period covered by this report, our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective and operating at the reasonable assurance level. A material weakness existed. As described in our Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2009, filed with the SEC on March 31, 2010, we determined that insufficient senior level finance and accounting positions contributed to significant year end adjustments. This lack of senior level staffing continued during the quarterly period ended March 31, 2010 as well.  A material weakness in internal control over financial reporting is a significant deficiency, or combination of significant deficiencies, that results in more than a remote likelihood that a material misstatement of the annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected. A significant deficiency is a control deficiency, or combination of control deficiencies, that adversely affects a company's ability to initiate, authorize, record, process, or report external financial data reliably in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, such that there is more than a remote likelihood that a misstatement of the company's annual or interim financial statements that is more than inconsequential will not be prevented or detected. Due to the Company’s continued growth, additional and/or realignment of accounting staff is required to more effectively manage the increased volumes of business. The actions that the Company has taken to correct this material weakness include but are not limited to: (a) hired a new CFO with specific experience in the industries in which we operate our businesses; (b) reevaluated all existing accounting personnel and realigned certain accounting tasks to more effectively manage current workloads; and (c) implemented additional reconciliation verification procedures with increased executive oversight. The Company believes all of the foregoing actions taken after March 31, 2010 should rectify the material weakness identified above. There has been no change in our internal controls over financial reporting that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal controls over financial reporting subsequent to the date of this report.

Item 4T.  Controls and Procedures.

Quarterly Internal Control Over Financial Reporting Evaluation

We conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting based on the framework and criteria established by COSO. As described in Part I, Item 4 above, we determined that insufficient senior level staffing made our internal control over financial reporting, as of March 31, 2010, the end of the quarterly period covered by this report, not effective. However, we made certain changes to our internal controls over financial reporting, as described in Part I, Item 4 above, after March 31, 2010, which should make our internal controls over financial reporting effective hereafter.
