Item 1.  Business
 
General
 
Colonial Commercial Corp. (“Colonial”) is a New York corporation which was incorporated on October 28, 1964.  Unless otherwise indicated, the term “Company” refers to Colonial Commercial Corp. and its consolidated subsidiaries.  The Company’s operations are conducted through its wholly owned subsidiaries, Universal Supply Group, Inc. (“Universal”), The RAL Supply Group, Inc. (“RAL”), American/Universal Supply, Inc. (“American”), and S&A Supply, Inc (“S&A”).  We distribute heating, ventilating and air conditioning equipment (HVAC), parts and accessories, climate control systems, appliances, and plumbing and electrical fixtures and supplies, primarily in New Jersey, New York, Massachusetts and portions of eastern Pennsylvania, Connecticut and Vermont.
 
We supply the Amana air conditioning and heating equipment line in New Jersey (exclusive of Cape May and Cumberland counties) and lower portions of New York State.  We are also the non-exclusive supplier of the Goodman line of heating and air conditioning equipment in substantially the same trading area.  We distribute these products through eight locations in New Jersey, seven locations in New York State, three locations in Massachusetts and one location in Willow Grove, Pennsylvania.  Of these locations, two are used for warehousing purposes only.  In addition, we distribute American Standard heating and air conditioning equipment, as well as other heating and air conditioning accessories, in Elmsford and Hicksville, New York.  We utilize showrooms for the display and sale of kitchen, bathroom and electrical fixtures and accessories at our locations in Fishkill, Middletown, New Windsor and Suffern, New York and Great Barrington and Pittsfield, Massachusetts.
 
We have developed a specialty in the design and sale of energy conservation control systems and the fabrication of customized UL listed control panels.  We also supply indoor air quality components and systems.
 
Our in-house staff provides technical assistance and training to customers.  In some cases, we also use vendors’ representatives and outside services. We do not install any equipment or systems.
 
In September 2006, we began to distribute appliances, such as washers and dryers, to appliance dealers primarily in New York, New Jersey, and portions of Connecticut, Delaware and Pennsylvania.
 
On September 10, 2007, the Company, through a wholly owned subsidiary, purchased from S&A Supply, Inc., a Massachusetts corporation, (“S&A Supply”) and affiliates of S&A Supply, all of their tangible and intangible assets, including accounts receivable, inventory, fixed assets, but excluding certain accounts receivable and other specifically excluded assets, and assumed certain liabilities, including trade accounts payable and motor vehicle loans.  S&A Supply is a distributor of heating, electrical, and plumbing supplies in the Western Massachusetts area.
 
On December 31, 2007, pursuant to a Plan of Merger dated December 11, 2007, the Company’s subsidiaries American and RALwere merged.  RAL was the surviving company in the merger.  This merger has no effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements or the daily operations of American and RAL.
 

Our business is affected by significant outdoor temperature swings. Our sales typically increase during peak heating and cooling demand periods.  Demand related to the residential central air conditioning replacement market is highest in the second and third quarters, while demand for heating equipment is usually highest in the fourth quarter.
 
In 2007, 2006 and 2005, approximately 85% of our sales were for replacement and/or renovation and the remaining 15% of sales were for new construction projects.  In the same years, respectively, sales consisted of approximately 42%, 40% and 42% HVAC equipment; 39%, 39% and 38% parts and accessories; and 15%, 16% and 16% climate control systems.
 
We own no patents and have no intellectual property rights or proprietary technology.
 
We carry general liability, comprehensive property damage, workers compensation and product liability insurance in amounts that we consider adequate for our business.  We maintain $2,000,000 in the aggregate and $1,000,000 per occurrence general liability coverage, plus a $15,000,000 umbrella policy.
 
No material regulatory requirements apply specifically to our business.
 
As of December 31, 2007, we had 215 non-union full-time employees.  We believe that our employee relations are satisfactory.
 
We have no foreign operations and have only one operating segment.
 
Distribution, Customers and Suppliers
 
We stock inventory in all of our 21 locations.  We deliver products to customers with our fleet of 22 leased and 23 owned trucks and vans.  We also make products available for pick-up at our facilities.
 
We sell primarily to contractors who purchase and install equipment and systems for residential, commercial and industrial users.  We had approximately 6,500 customers in 2007.  No customer accounted for more than 2% of consolidated net sales in 2007.  We believe that the loss of any one customer would not have a material adverse effect on our business.  We have no long term agreement with any customer.
 
We deal with our customers on a purchase order by purchase order basis.
 
We purchase inventory from our vendors and maintain this inventory in our warehouses to meet purchasing requirements and ensure continuous availability of merchandise to satisfy our customers’ needs.  We occasionally accept the return of merchandise from the customer when returned in unopened cartons, subject to a restocking fee.  We do not normally provide extended payment terms to customers.  We have no material long term agreements with any supplier.  The Company enters into agreements with vendors which involve volume rebates, pricing and advertising, all within the standard practices of the industry.  Additionally, certain supplier agreements limit the sale of competitive products in designated markets that the Company serves.  All purchases are made with domestic vendors, some of which, however, may manufacture products in foreign locations.
 
Certain of our supplier agreements limit the sale of competitive products in designated markets that we serve.
 
In 2007, two suppliers accounted for 30% of our purchases.  The loss of one or both of these suppliers could have a material adverse effect on our business for at least a short-term period.  We believe that the loss of any one of our other suppliers would not have a material adverse effect on our business.
 

Competition
 
We compete with a number of distributors, national chains and national home centers, and also with several air conditioning and heating equipment manufacturers that distribute a significant portion of their products through their own distribution organizations.  There is no single manufacturer, distributor or national chain or home center that dominates our market.  Competition is based on product availability, customer service, price and quality. We work to maintain a competitive edge by providing in-house training, technical sales support to our customers and by employing experienced personnel at our point-of-sale locations.
 
Government Regulations, Environmental and Health and Safety Matters
 
Our Company is subject to federal, state and local laws and regulations relating to the generation, storage, handling, emission, transportation and discharge of materials into the environment.  These include laws and regulations implementing the Clean Air Act, relating to minimum energy efficiency standards of HVAC systems and the production, servicing and disposal of certain ozone-depleting refrigerants used in such systems, as well as the phase out of certain refrigerants for use in equipment manufactured after January 1, 2010.  We are also subject to regulations concerning the transport of hazardous materials, including regulations adopted pursuant to the Motor Carrier Safety Act of 1990.  Our operations are also subject to health and safety requirements including the Occupational, Safety and Health Act (OSHA).  Management believes that the business is operated in substantial compliance with all applicable federal, state and local provisions relating to the protection of the environment, transport of hazardous materials and health and safety requirements.
 
Item 1A.  Risk Factors
 
The following important factors could adversely impact our business.
 
Our business is significantly impacted by changes in general and local economic conditions.
 
Our business is substantially affected by changes in general economic factors outside of our control, such as:
 
 
a.
employment levels and job growth;
 
 
b.
population growth;
 
 
c.
housing demand or modernization of existing homes;
 
 
d.
consumer confidence (which can be substantially affected by external conditions, including international hostilities involving the United States); and
 
 
e.
the availability of financing for homeowners and homebuyers.
 
We may lose business to competitors and may otherwise be unable to favorably compete.
 
See “Business-Competition” section above. Several of the companies that compete with the Company have substantially greater financial and other resources.  No assurance can be given that the Company will continue to be able to respond effectively to competitive pressures.  Increased competition by existing and future competitors could result in reductions in sales, prices, volumes and gross margins that could materially adversely affect the Company’s business, financial condition and results of operations.  Furthermore, the Company’s success depends, in part, on its ability to gain market share from competitors.
 

We are dependent on third party suppliers to deliver equipment parts and accessories to us for resale to contractors.
 
We have no long term contracts with our suppliers. We are at risk that our suppliers may cease making their products available to us on acceptable terms or at all.  The loss of one or both of our two major suppliers could have a material adverse effect on our business.
 
We are dependent upon uninterrupted delivery of products.
 
Our Company depends upon transportation of products from our suppliers and to our customers.  Any interruption or cessation of the transportation of these products by national or regional stoppages, fuel shortages, or other, will significantly impair the Company’s ability to do business.
 
Our business may be negatively impacted by inventory losses or obsolescence.
 
Our businesses depend on providing current products in good condition from our inventory to the customer.  Although we believe that we carry adequate insurance to protect ourselves from significant product losses, any uninsured loss of inventory, damages to inventory, or theft of inventory could have a significant impact on our profitability.  Alternatively, in the event that we are unable to sell our inventory in a timely manner, the unsold product may become obsolete and unsaleable and cause us to incur significant financial losses.
 
We could incur substantial losses in the event there are sudden changes in demand for our products.
 
A significant sudden increase in the demand for the Company’s products could result in a short-term increase in the cost of inventory purchases, while a significant decrease in demand could result in an increase in the amount of excess inventory quantities on-hand. Additionally, the Company’s estimates of future product demand may prove to be inaccurate.  In any of these cases, the Company may have understated or overstated the write-down required for excess and obsolete inventory or otherwise incur additional financial losses.
 
Our business is largely dependent upon seasonal weather variability.
 
A major portion of our business is the distribution of heating, ventilating and air conditioning products.  The sale of these products is heavily influenced by temperature extremes and any major shift in the variation of the climate may have a significant adverse impact on our business.
 
The Company’s financial leverage may result in a negative impact upon our ability to do business.
 
Our Company is financially leveraged.  Our leverage may place burdens on our ability to comply with the terms of our indebtedness, may restrict our ability to pay certain term loans, and further restrict our ability to operate and fulfill our financial obligations.  The amount of our debt could have significant consequences.  As an example, it could limit our ability to obtain future financing for working capital, capital expenditures, debt service requirements, acquisitions, or other needs.  It requires us to dedicate a substantial portion of our cash flow from operations to the payment of our debt and reduces our ability to use cash for other purposes.  It has a negative impact on our flexibility in planning or reacting to business changes.  It increases our vulnerability to any downturn in our business or to a significant rise in interest rates and may place us at a competitive disadvantage with our competitors who are not in such a leveraged position.
 
Our ability to meet our debt service and other obligations depends upon our future performance.  Our earnings vary based upon all the conditions described herein and, hence, our ability to pay our obligations is affected accordingly.
 
5

 
We may be unable to renew our credit line at the expiration of its term or obtain alternate financing which would have a significant impact on the continuation of the operation of our business.
 
Since our debt accrues interest at a floating rate, extended periods of high interest rates could affect the viability of our business.
 
Our lender may call our loan due which would have a significant impact on our ability to do business
 
Our Company was in violation of our lender’s loan covenants for the third and fourth quarters of 2007, for which our lender has given us waivers.  Our lender has imposed a $35,000 fee for the waiver of the fourth quarter of 2007 covenants violation.  If at any time our Company is in violation of our lender’s loan covenants in the future, the lender may waive this violation, increase our interest rate by up to 3.0% and impose additional fees upon us for the violation.  The increase in the interest rate or a significant financial penalty would have a negative impact on the operation of our business.  If our lender does not waive this violation and calls our loan due, it may be difficult to obtain alternate financing which would have a significant impact on the continuation of the operation of our business.
 
Our Company’s business is dependent upon the creditworthiness of our contractor customers.
 
Our Company would be significantly negatively impacted in the event our contractor customers are unable to pay their obligations to us.  This may occur if the economy or housing market slows, unemployment rises, interest rates increase dramatically, a natural disaster occurs within our region, or an act of terror substantially stops our economy from operating for a significant period of time.  If these contractors are unable to pay their accounts with us, the result would be that we would be unable to pay our lending institutions and vendors, substantially impacting our ability to operate.
 
We could incur substantial losses for asbestos-based claims.
 
See Item 3, Legal Proceedings for a potential material and adverse effect to us if we are held liable for substantial asbestos claims against a predecessor of one of our subsidiaries, indemnitors fail to honor their indemnification agreements and insurance policies are held not to cover these liabilities.
 
Our ability to operate our Company effectively could be impaired if we fail to attract and retain key personnel.
 
Although William Pagano, a Director and Chief Executive Officer, has entered into an employment agreement with us that expires in 2010, our ability to operate our businesses and implement our strategies will depend upon our ability to attract and retain other qualified personnel.
 
Our ability to operate our business effectively could be impaired if we are unable to extend the leases for our locations.
 
We lease 20 locations with approximately 420,000 square feet for showrooms, counter sales and warehousing.  We own no real estate.  Our leases expire at various times between May 31, 2009 and April 30, 2018.  Our business will be negatively impacted if we are unable to extend our existing leases at reasonable rates and we are unable to lease alternative space on acceptable terms.
 

Our Company’s election of Board of Directors and corporate actions requiring shareholder approval could be controlled by a group of existing shareholders.
 
As of December 31, 2007, Michael Goldman, our Chairman, William Pagano, our Chief Executive Officer and a Director, and Rita Folger, a more than 5% shareholder, had beneficial ownership of approximately 55% of the Company’s common stock and 0% of the Company’s convertible preferred stock.  If voted as a group, Messrs. Goldman and Pagano and Mrs. Folger would have the power to elect all six members of the Board of Directors and control all corporate actions requiring shareholder approval.
 
 Item 1B. Unresolved Staff Comments
 
None.
 
Item 2.  Properties
 
Our principal executive offices are located at 275 Wagaraw Road, Hawthorne, New Jersey 07506 and are consolidated with the administrative offices of our subsidiary, Universal Supply Group, Inc.
 
The Company maintains 18 combination sales and warehouse locations in Hawthorne, Bogota, Augusta, North Brunswick, Cedar Knolls, Wharton and Westville, New Jersey; Elmsford, Hicksville, Middletown, Fishkill, New Windsor, Peekskill, Poughkeepsie, Suffern, and Half Moon, New York; and Great Barrington and Pittsfield, Massachusetts.  Additionally, the Company maintains two separate warehouse locations in Cedar Knolls, New Jersey and New Hampton, New York.  These locations consist of approximately 420,000 square feet under leases expiring between 2009 and 2018 with current aggregate annual rents of approximately $3,110,097.
 
In addition, the Company has a month-to-month lease for a portion of the New Windsor, New York location, consisting of 11,000 square feet, for $2,500 per month, a month-to-month lease for a location in Willow Grove, Pennsylvania, consisting of 2,500 square feet, for $2,204 per month, and a month-to-month lease for a location in North Adams, Massachusetts, consisting of 6,000 square feet, for $1,425 per month.
 
The premises located at Middletown, Fishkill, New Windsor and Suffern, New York and Great Barrington and Pittsfield, Massachusetts also include showrooms of kitchen, bathroom and electrical fixtures and accessories.
 
Our premises are suitable and adequate for their intended use and are adequately covered by insurance.  As of December 31, 2007, we leased all our facilities.
 
Item 3.  Legal Proceedings
 
Universal Supply Group, Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, is a New York corporation (“Universal”).  On June 25, 1999, Universal acquired substantially all of the assets of Universal Supply Group, Inc., a New Jersey corporation, including its name, pursuant to the terms of a purchase agreement.  The Company filed a copy of the purchase agreement with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 30, 1999 as Exhibit 10(g) on Form 10KSB, and the Company filed a copy of an amendment to the purchase agreement on July 9, 1999 as Exhibit 10(a)(ii) on Form 8-K.  Subsequent to the sale, Universal Supply Group, Inc. (the selling corporation) formerly known as Universal Engineering Co., Inc., changed its name to Hilco, Inc.  Hilco, Inc. acquired the assets of Amber Supply Co., Inc., formerly known as Amber Oil Burner Supply Co., Inc., in 1998, prior to Hilco’s sale of assets to Universal.  Hilco, Inc. is hereinafter referred to as the “Predecessor.”  The majority shareholders of Hilco, Inc. were John A. Hildebrandt and Paul Hildebrandt.
 
 
The Company understands that Predecessor and many other companies have been sued in the Superior Court of New Jersey (Middlesex County) by plaintiffs filing lawsuits alleging injury due to asbestos. Currently, there exist 86 plaintiffs in these lawsuits relating to alleged sales of asbestos products, or products containing asbestos, by the Predecessor. The Company never sold any asbestos related products.
 
Of the existing plaintiffs as of December 31, 2007, 15 filed actions in 2007, 7 filed actions in 2006, 14 filed actions in 2005, 33 filed actions in 2004, 15 filed actions in 2003, and 2 filed actions in 2002. There are 126 other plaintiffs that have had their actions dismissed and 12 other plaintiffs that have settled as of December 31, 2007 for a total of $3,357,500. There has been no judgment against the Predecessor.  Subsequent to December 31, 2007, one of the existing cases was dismissed by summary judgment.
 
Our Universal subsidiary was named by 36 plaintiffs; of these, 11 filed actions in 2007, 6 filed actions in 2006, 11 filed actions in 2005, 5 filed actions in 2001, 1 filed an action in 2000, and 2 filed actions in 1999.  Six plaintiffs naming Universal have had their actions dismissed and, of the total $3,357,500 of settled actions, 2 plaintiffs naming Universal have settled for $26,500.  No money was paid by Universal in connection with any settlement.  Following these dismissed and settled actions, there currently exist 28 plaintiffs that name Universal.
 
As set forth in more detail below, the Company has been indemnified against asbestos-based claims, and insurance companies are defending the interests of the Predecessor and the Company in these cases.
 
Based on advice of counsel, the Company believes that none of the litigation that was brought against the Company’s Universal subsidiary through December 31, 2007 is material, and that the only material litigation that was brought against Predecessor through that date was Rhodes v. A.O. Smith Corporation, filed on April 26, 2004 in the Superior Court of New Jersey, Law Division, Middlesex County, Docket Number MID-L-2979-04AS. The Company was advised that the Rhodes case was settled for $3,250,000 (“Settlement”) under an agreement reached in connection with a $10,000,000 jury verdict that was rendered on August 5, 2005. The Company was not a defendant in the Rhodes case.
 
On April 29, 2005, prior to the Rhodes case trial, the Predecessor filed a third party complaint against Sid Harvey Industries (“Third Party Complaint”) in an action demanding contributor payment in connection with the Settlement. Sid Harvey Industries moved successfully for summary judgment.  The Predecessor filed an appeal as to the dismissal of Predecessor’s Third Party Complaint.  In a decision dated December 29, 2006, the Superior Court of New Jersey, Appellate Division, reversed the dismissal of Predecessor’s Third Party Complaint and remanded the matter for further proceedings as to Predecessor’s claim for contribution.
 
The Company believes that Rhodes differed from the other lawsuits in that plaintiff established that he contracted mesothelioma as a result of his occupational exposure to asbestos dust and fibers and that a predecessor of the Company was a major supplier of the asbestos containing products that allegedly caused his disease.
 
Indemnification
 
John A. Hildebrandt, Paul Hildebrandt and the Predecessor have jointly and severally agreed to indemnify our Universal subsidiary from and against any and all damages, liabilities and claims due to exposure to asbestos at any time prior to the June 25, 1999 closing of the purchase agreement referred to earlier.  These agreements are set forth in the purchase agreement. Paul Hildebrandt, one of the indemnitors, was a Director of the Company from September 29, 2004 to January 28, 2005.
 

The indemnitors may use their own counsel to defend these claims. The indemnitors are not liable for any settlement effected without their consent. The indemnitors may settle and pay money claims without the consent of the Company. There is no indemnification unless claims aggregate $50,000; once this trigger point is reached, indemnification is required for all claims, including the first $50,000, but excluding claims of less than $10,000. The indemnification requirement survives at least until 30 days after the running of any relevant statutes of limitation.
 
The obligation of the indemnitors is joint and several, so that the Company can have recourse against any one or more of these indemnitors, whether or not any other indemnitor has previously defaulted on its obligation to us. There are no other limitations to our rights to indemnification.  The Company cannot be certain that the indemnitors have the financial wherewithal to meet their obligations to indemnify the Company.
 
Insurance
 
The assets that the Predecessor sold to us included its insurance policies and other agreements and contracts. The policies provide coverage for liability accruing during the periods for which premiums were paid.  The Predecessor was formed in 1940. Copies of policies are available for each year beginning in 1970 and ending with the closing under the purchase agreement in 1999. Copies of policies for the period from 1940 to 1969 are not available.
 
Insurance companies acknowledge coverage for potential asbestos claims under certain of these policies.  Insurance companies under additional policies have reserved their right to deny coverage but have continued to defend and indemnify the Predecessor and the Company under the contested policies.
 
There are periods during the years from 1940 to 1999 in which our Predecessor did not have coverage for potential asbestos claims.  Subject to litigation, insurance companies may maintain that the existence of these periods results in coverage for only a portion of a particular injury that varies with the period during which there was asbestos coverage relating to the injury, and that the balance of any settlement or judgment is to be paid by the insured.  As of December 31, 2007, no insurance company has claimed any contribution for a gap in coverage except for a claim for $160 made by one insurance company to the Predecessor in 1995.  The Predecessor asserted that it had no obligation to pay this amount and did not make any payment.
 
Insurance companies have, as of December 31, 2007, defended us and the Predecessor, and have paid all settlement amounts and defense costs.  Except for $160 referred to above, the insurance companies have not requested any payments from us or from the Predecessor.
 
Our Universal subsidiary has not engaged in the sale of asbestos products since its formation in 1997. Its product liability policies for all years since 1998 exclude asbestos claims.
 
General
 
Regardless of indemnification and insurance coverage, we do not in any event consider our Company to be liable for the asbestos-based lawsuits that name us or for any other claim that arises as a result of actions or omissions by Predecessor companies. We expressly disclaimed the assumption of any liabilities when we purchased the assets of the Predecessor. It is our opinion that the existing asbestos litigation will not have a material adverse effect on the Company.  Nevertheless, we could be materially and adversely affected if we are held liable for substantial asbestos claims or if the Company incurs substantial legal or settlement costs. This material and adverse effect would occur if indemnitors fail to honor their indemnification agreements and insurance is not available either because policy limits are exceeded, or because insurance companies successfully claim limitations on their liabilities by reason of gaps in coverage or otherwise.
 

Since we regard as remote the potential payment of any asbestos-based claim, we have not accrued any balance for any period relating to asbestos claims, and we have not recorded any amount for asbestos claims for any period in any of our financial statements.
 
Other Litigation
 
The Company is periodically involved in other litigation in the ordinary course of business.  The Company vigorously defends all matters in which the Company or its subsidiaries are named defendants and, for insurable losses, maintains significant levels of insurance to protect against adverse judgments, claims or assessments.  Although the adequacy of existing insurance coverage or the outcome of any legal proceedings cannot be predicted with certainty, the Company does not believe the ultimate liability associated with any claims or litigation will have a material impact to its financial condition or results of operations.

(e)  Purchases of Equity Securities
 
On November 21, 2007, the Board of Directors authorized the Company to repurchase up to $250,000 of its common and/or preferred stock in open market or privately negotiated purchases.  There is no expiration date associated with this program.  As of December 31, 2007, the Company purchased 8,150 shares of common stock for an aggregate purchase price of $9,832 and approximately $240,168 remains available for repurchase under the program.  The Company accounted for these transactions utilizing the constructive retirement method.

Item 7. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
 
Forward-Looking Statements
 
The following material contains forward-looking statements relating to such matters as anticipated financial performance and business prospects. When used in this Report, the words “anticipates,” “expects,” “believes,” “may,” “intends” and similar expressions are intended to be among the statements that identify forward-looking statements.  From time to time, the Company may also publish forward-looking statements.  The Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 provides a safe harbor for forward-looking statements.  Forward-looking statements involve risks and uncertainties, including, but not limited to, the consummation of certain events referred to in this report, the availability of financing, technological changes, competitive factors, maintaining customer and vendor relationships, inventory obsolescence and availability, and other risks detailed in the Company’s periodic filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, which could cause the Company’s actual results and experience to differ materially from the anticipated results or other expectations expressed in the Company’s forward-looking statements.
 
Critical Accounting Policies
 
The accounting policies below are critical to the Company’s business operations and the understanding of results of operations. The Company’s discussion and analysis of its financial condition and results of operations are based upon the Company’s consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. The preparation of these financial statements requires the Company to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities as the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amount of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. The Company bases its estimates on historical experience and on various other factors that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of asset and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.
 
Revenue for the Company primarily consists of sales of heating, ventilation and air conditioning equipment, climate control systems and plumbing and electrical fixtures and supplies. Revenue is recognized when the earnings process is complete, which is generally upon shipment or delivery of products in accordance with agreed-upon shipping terms and when title and risk of loss transfers to the customer.  The Company has no further obligations subsequent to shipment or delivery.  Customers have the right to return defective products, which are substantially covered under the manufacturer’s warranty.  The customer receives a credit from the Company for defective products returned and the Company receives a corresponding credit provided by the manufacturer.  The only warranty provided on products sold is provided by the manufacturer.
 

The Company maintains an allowance for doubtful accounts for estimated losses resulting from the inability of its customers to make required payments. The Company establishes and monitors the allowance for doubtful accounts based on the credit risk of specific customers, customer concentrations, historical trends and other information. The Company had accounts receivable of $11,364,038 and an allowance for doubtful accounts of $478,857 as of December 31, 2007.  Although the Company believes its allowance is sufficient, if the financial condition of the Company’s customers were to deteriorate, resulting in an impairment of their ability to make payments, additional allowances would be required.
 
The Company writes down its inventories for estimated slow moving and obsolete goods in accordance with the lower of cost or market value, based upon assumptions about future demand and market conditions. A significant sudden increase in the demand for the Company’s products could result in a short-term increase in the cost of inventory purchases, while a significant decrease in demand could result in an increase in the amount of excess inventory quantities on-hand. Additionally, the Company’s estimates of future product demand may prove to be inaccurate, in which case the Company may have understated or overstated the write-down required for excess and obsolete inventory.
 
Under Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 142, goodwill is reviewed at least annually for impairment.  In assessing the recoverability of the Company’s goodwill, the Company must make assumptions regarding estimated future cash flows and other factors to determine the fair value of the respective assets and liabilities of the reporting unit.  Upon adoption and again as a result of the Company’s annual impairment test, there was no indication of impairment for goodwill acquired in prior business combinations.  If the Company’s estimates or its related assumptions change in the future, the Company may be required to record impairment charges related to its goodwill.  Goodwill and other intangible assets amounting to $1,628,133 and $366,376 at December 31, 2007, respectively, consist of assets arising from acquisitions.
 
The Company has accounted for, and currently accounts for, income taxes in accordance with Statement 109 “Accounting for Income Taxes.”  This statement establishes financial accounting and reporting standards for the effects of income taxes that result from an enterprise’s activities during the current and preceding years.  It requires an asset and liability approach for financial accounting and reporting of income taxes.  The realization of future tax benefits of deductible temporary differences and operating loss or tax credit carryforwards will depend on whether the Company will have sufficient taxable income of an appropriate character within the carryback and carryforward period permitted by the tax law to allow for utilization of the deductible amounts and carryforwards. Without sufficient taxable income to offset the deductible amounts and carryforwards, the related tax benefits will expire unused. The Company evaluates both positive and negative evidence in making a determination as to whether it is more likely than not that all or some portion of the deferred tax asset will not be realized.  As of December 31, 2007, the Company had a deferred tax valuation allowance of approximately $6,800,000.
 
Comparison of Year Ended December 31, 2007 with Year Ended December 31, 2006
 
Sales increased by 15.3%, or $10,931,213, to $82,425,865 for the year ended December 31, 2007 from $71,494,652 for the same period in 2006.  The inclusion of sales from our acquisition of S&A Supply, Inc., which occurred on September 10, 2007, accounted for $4,640,000 of this increase.  The remainder of the increase is related to the opening of our branch in the Albany, New York area in April 2007, the inclusion of sales of appliances for the full year of 2007 as opposed to the last four months of 2006, and increased sales of air conditioning products in our existing New York locations due to increased market penetration related to improving sales focus and service levels to our customers.
 

Gross profit increased by 9.9%, or $2,117,686, to $23,554,892 for the year ended December 31, 2007 from $21,437,206 for the same period in 2006.  Gross profit expressed as a percentage of sales decreased by 1.4% to 28.6% in 2007 compared to 30.0% for the comparable period in 2006.  The lower gross profit expressed as a percentage of sales was caused by increased sales of lower margin air conditioning equipment and appliances, as well as a reflection of the more competitive market place.  Cost of sales excludes the distribution costs of incoming freight, purchasing, receiving, inspection, warehousing and handling costs, as these costs are included in our selling, general and administrative expenses.  Our gross margins may not be comparable to those of other entities since some entities include these distribution costs in the cost of sales.  These distribution costs were $545,985 and $431,780 for the years ended December 31, 2007 and 2006, respectively.
 
Operating income decreased by 37.6%, or $758,131, to $1,258,951 for the year ended December 31, 2007 from $2,017,082 for the same period in 2006.  This percentage decrease in operating income reflects the effect of the difference between the increase in gross profit of 9.9% compared to the increase in selling, general and administrative expenses of 14.8%.  The increase in selling, general and administrative expenses was $2,875,817 to $22,295,941 for the year ended December 31, 2007 from $19,420,124 for the same period in 2006.  This was caused by an increase in expenses for accounting and professional fees related to the implementation of controls and procedures required under the Sarbanes Oxley Act of 2002 and additional required filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission in the amount of $239,000, an increase in bad debt expense related to the declining economic conditions within the construction industry in the amount of $486,000 and a non-cash expense related to the death benefit due to the estate of the Company’s founder in December 2007 in the amount of $45,000.  Additionally we incurred approximately $1,955,000 in added expenses related to the operation of our new Albany, New York location in April 2007, our appliance division’s expenses being recorded for the full year of 2007 rather than four months in 2006 and the added selling, general and administrative for the operation of S&A Supply, Inc. which commenced on September 10, 2007.
 
Other income increased by 7.0%, or $19,352, to $297,218 for the year ended December 31, 2007 from $277,866 for the same period in 2006.  This increase is primarily the result of an increase in service charges collected from customers’ past due invoices in the year ended December 31, 2007.  Interest expense, net increased by 10.9%, or $147,534, to $1,502,319 for the year ended December 31, 2007 from $1,354,785 for the same period in 2006.  The interest expense increase is the result of increasing interest rates and increased borrowings under the credit line to support the acquisition of S&A Supply, Inc., the operation of our new location in Albany, New York, and, in general, higher inventory levels and accounts receivable related to increased sales.  The revolving credit line bears interest at .25% below the prime rate and the prime rate was 7.25% at December 31, 2007 compared to 8.25% at December 31, 2006.  As a result, pre tax income decreased by 94.3%, or $886,313, to $53,850 for the year ended December 31, 2007 from $940,163 for the same period in 2006.
 
The Company’s income tax expense for the year ended December 31, 2007 was $105,487 compared to $124,391 for the same period in 2006.  The Company records state income tax expense based on year-to-date profit of the Company and its subsidiaries and records federal alternative minimum tax expense as the Company utilizes its net operating loss carryforwards to offset any federal taxes due.  Comparison of the Company’s effective tax rate from period to period may not be consistent as the Company’s subsidiaries file separate state tax returns and the Company files a consolidated federal return.  State taxes vary with the profit of the Company and its separate subsidiaries, while federal taxes are based upon the consolidation of the Company and its subsidiaries.
 

The Company’s net income decreased by 106.3%, or $867,409, to a net loss of $51,637 for the year ended December 31, 2007, compared to net income of $815,772 for the same period in 2006.  This decrease in net income was caused by the decrease in pre-tax income of $886,313, as stated above.
 
Comparison of Year Ended December 31, 2006 with Year Ended December 31, 2005
 
Sales increased by 7.2%, or $4,803,707, to $71,494,652 for the year ended December 31, 2006 from $66,690,945 for the same period in 2005.  The increase in sales is primarily a result of increased market penetration at two of the Company’s subsidiaries, an increase in general industry pricing, and increased sales of additional hydronic heating product lines.  The increases in these areas were offset by weaknesses in sales of heating equipment, parts and accessories related to an unusually warm November and December, as well as weaknesses in sales of commercial control systems.
 
Gross profit increased by 6.5%, or $1,306,809, to $21,437,206 for the year ended December 31, 2006 from $20,130,397 for the same period in 2005.  Gross profit expressed as a percentage of sales decreased by 0.2% to 30.0% in 2006 compared to 30.2% for the comparable period in 2005.  The lower gross profit expressed as a percentage of sales was caused by a decrease in sales of parts for heating systems due to a warmer November and December.  The sale of parts usually commands higher margins than equipment sales.  Cost of sales excludes the distribution costs of incoming freight, purchasing, receiving, inspection, warehousing and handling costs, as these costs are included in our selling, general and administrative expenses.  Our gross margins may not be comparable to those of other entities since some entities include these distribution costs in the cost of sales.  These distribution costs were $431,780 and $421,248 for the years ended December 31, 2006 and 2005, respectively.
 
Operating income decreased by 14.1%, or $330,563, to $2,017,082 for the year ended December 31, 2006 from $2,347,645 for the same period in 2005.  This percentage decrease in operating income reflects the effect of the difference between the increase in gross profit of 6.5% compared to the increase in selling, general and administrative expenses of 9.2%.  The increase in selling, general and administrative expenses was $1,637,372 to $19,420,124 for the year ended December 31, 2006 from $17,782,752 for the same period in 2005.  This was caused by increased expenses for additional personnel to improve customer service, and added cost for increased health insurance, gasoline, utility expenses and decreasing sales in our heating replacement parts and commercial control systems business.  Staffing costs increased by $802,077, while costs for trucking, fuel, and facilities increased by $197,670.
 
Other income increased by 1.9%, or $5,269, to $277,866 for the year ended December 31, 2006 from $272,597 for the same period in 2005.  This increase is primarily the result of an increase in service charges collected from customers’ past due invoices in the year ended December 31, 2006.  Interest expense, net increased by 29.7%, or $310,331, to $1,354,785 for the year ended December 31, 2006 from $1,044,454 for the same period in 2005.  The interest expense increase is the result of increasing interest rates and increased borrowings under the credit line to support higher inventory levels and accounts receivable related to increased sales and higher inventory levels.  The revolving credit line bears interest at .25% below prime rate, which was 8.0% at December 31, 2006 compared to 7.25% at December 31, 2005.  As a result, pre tax income decreased by 40.3%, or $635,625, to $940,163 for the year ended December 31, 2006 from $1,575,788 for the same period in 2005.
 

The Company’s net income decreased by 60.5%, or $1,247,080, to $815,772 for the year ended December 31, 2006, compared to net income of $2,062,852 for the same period in 2005.  This decrease in net income was caused by the decrease in pre-tax income of $635,625, as stated above, in addition to the effect of the inclusion of a deferred tax benefit in the year ended December 31, 2005 in the amount of $641,500 with no benefit recognized in the year ended December 31, 2006.  In 2005, the tax benefit resulted from extending the tax benefit calculation from a two year earnings projection to a three year earnings projection, due to improved earnings predictability.
 
Liquidity and Capital Resources
 
Credit Facility
 
In connection with the acquisition of S&A Supply, Inc., the Company amended its secured credit facility (“Agreement”) with Wells Fargo Bank, National Association (“Wells”) to increase the Company’s facility from $15 million to $25 million and extended the maturity of the facility from August 1, 2010 to August 1, 2012.  The $25 million facility includes a $1 million structural sublimit payable in 24 equal monthly installments, and up to $500,000 of seasonal over-advances.  The initial interest rate on the term loan is prime minus 0.25%, but the interest rate on up to 75% of the loan’s outstanding balance can be converted by the Company to 2½% over LIBOR.
 
The revolving credit line bears interest at .25% below prime.  At December 31, 2007, the Company had a standby letter of credit, which expires on July 31, 2008.  The standby letter of credit reduces the availability of the credit facility by $300,000 and additional reserves determined by the bank further reduce the availability of the credit facility by $100,000.  Borrowings under the credit facility are secured by the available assets of the Company, as defined in the Agreement.  Availability under the revolving credit line was $718,583 as of December 31, 2007 and is determined by a percentage of available assets as defined in the Agreement, less letters of credit and reserves.  The balance outstanding under the revolving line of credit was $18,027,055 as of December 31, 2007.  The interest rate on the revolving credit facility as of December 31, 2007 was 7.0%.
 
The Company believes that the credit facility is sufficient to finance its current operating needs.  However, the business of the Company would be materially and adversely affected if the bank demands payment of the loan and the Company is unable to refinance the loan.  In the event that Mr. Pagano no longer performs the duties of the President of Universal or the Vice President of RAL for any reason other than death or disability, the Company will be considered in default of its credit agreement with Wells Fargo Bank, National Association unless a waiver is obtained.  The facility contains covenants that are determined annually and relate to the Company’s monthly and quarterly net income, quarterly cash flows, quarterly tangible net worth, and annual capital expenditures.  The facility also restricts the payment of dividends, subordinated debt and purchase of securities.  The continuation of the credit facility is conditioned upon the Company and Wells reaching agreement on the covenants.  While the Company and Wells have reached mutually agreeable covenants for 2008, there is no assurance that they will be able to do so in the future.  As of December 31, 2007, the Company was in default of its monthly and quarterly net income and quarterly cash flow covenants; however, Wells has waived this event of default and reset the financial covenants for 2008 for a fee of $35,000.  This waiver applies to the quarter ended December 31, 2007 and does not extend beyond this period.
 

In addition to this fee, Wells stated that they may require the Company to delay the repayment of a $750,000 note to Goldman Associates of New York, Inc. (“Goldman Associates”) which was due on June 30, 2008.  Goldman Associates has extended the term of payment of this note to January 1, 2009.  Michael Goldman, Chairman of the Board of the Company, is the beneficial owner of Goldman Associates.  For additional information regarding Mr. Goldman and Goldman Associates, see Part III, Item 13., Certain Relationships and Related Transactions, and Director Independence, below.
 
As of December 31, 2007, the Company had $622,723 in cash compared with $482,251 at December 31, 2006.
 
Net cash provided by operating activities was $1,048,905 for the year ended December 31, 2007.  The net cash provided by operating activities for the 2007 period is primarily a result of non-cash charges of $1,322,365 offset by a net loss of $51,637 and changes in operating assets and liabilities of $221,823.  The increase in accounts receivable of $1,426,013 was primarily a result of slower payments made by our customers under credit terms that have not changed.  The increase in accounts payable of $2,108,151 was primarily due to increased inventory levels and, in some cases, the extension of vendor terms.
 
Cash flows used in investing activities were $5,154,470 during the year ended December 31, 2007 due to $451,095 of purchases of equipment and $4,703,375 cash payment for the acquisition of S&A, net of cash acquired.
 
Cash flows provided by financing activities of $4,246,037 consisted of $4,411,359 in net borrowings under the credit facility-revolving credit, $13,000 received from the exercise of stock options and $46,752 received from the issuance of notes payable.  Cash flows used in financing activities consisted of $215,242 for repayments of notes payable and $9,832 for the repurchase of common stock.
 
We anticipate S&A Supply to be a profitable subsidiary, therefore, cash flows provided by operating activities should more than offset future cash flows used in investing and financing activities, such as purchases of equipment and increased borrowing under the credit facility.  In addition, the seasonality of the S&A Supply’s business is similar to the Company’s seasonality, resulting in cash flow trends of a similar nature.
 
Equity Transactions
 
During the year ended December 31, 2007, the Company issued 52,000 shares of common stock pursuant to the exercise of stock options.  On January 2, 2007, Bernard Korn obtained 52,000 shares of common stock by exercising 52,000 outstanding stock options.  Mr. Korn was Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of the Company until his resignation on April 17, 2006 and served as a non-executive employee of the Company until his death on December 12, 2007.
 
During the year ended December 31, 2007, no shares of redeemable preferred stock were converted into common stock.  As of December 31, 2007, the number of convertible preferred shares outstanding was 467,500.
 
On November 21, 2007, the Board of Directors authorized the Company to repurchase up to $250,000 of its common and/or preferred stock in open market or privately negotiated purchases.  There is no expiration date associated with this program.  As of December 31, 2007, the Company purchased 8,150 shares of common stock for an aggregate purchase price of $9,832 and approximately $240,168 remains available for repurchase under the program.  The Company accounted for these transactions utilizing the constructive retirement method.

Notes payable carry a fixed interest percentage rate per annum, with the exception of a $750,000 note that accrues interest at the prime rate.  “Notes payable interest” in the table assumes an average annual prime rate of 7.25%.  The prime rate as of December 31, 2007 was 7.25%.  See Note 6, Notes Payable, of the Financial Statements for the terms of these notes.
 
“Line of credit” in the table is shown as a less than one year obligation because the lending bank may demand payment at any time.  The line of credit consists of a revolving credit line that bears interest at .25% below prime.  “Line of credit interest” in the table assumes that the principal amount outstanding on the line is paid in full on December 31, 2007, that the principal amount to be repaid on that date will be $18,027,055 (which is the principal amount that was outstanding on December 31, 2007), and assumes that the average prime rate will be 7.25% in 2008.  The prime rate was 7.25% as of December 31, 2007.  See Note 5, Financing Arrangements, of the Financial Statements for the terms of the line of credit.
 
Impact of Inflation and Seasonality
 
To date, inflation has had a minor impact on the Company’s operations causing limited price increases in certain product lines. The Company’s business is affected by significant outdoor temperature swings.  Demand related to the residential central air conditioning replacement market is highest in the second and third quarters with demand for heating equipment usually highest in the fourth quarter.
 
Item 7A.  Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
 
Market risk represents the risk of changes in value of a financial instrument, derivative or non-derivative, caused by fluctuations in interest rates, foreign exchange rates and equity prices.  The Company has no financial instruments that give it exposure to foreign exchange rates or equity prices.


The Company’s pre-tax earnings and cash flows are exposed to changes in interest rates.  All borrowings under its credit facility bear interest based on the prime rate less .25%, and a $750,000 note to Goldman Associates of New York, Inc. bears interest at the prime rate.  A hypothetical 10% adverse change in such rates would reduce the pre-tax earnings and cash flows by approximately $131,627 over a one-year period, assuming the borrowing level remains consistent with the outstanding borrowings as of December 31, 2007.  The fair value of the borrowings under the credit facility is not affected by changes in market interest rates.
 
The Company’s remaining interest-bearing obligations are at fixed rates of interest and as such, do not expose the pre-tax earnings and cash flows to changes in market interest rates. The change in fair value of the Company’s fixed rate obligations resulting from a hypothetical 10% adverse change in interest rates would not be material.
 
Item 8.  Financial Statements and Supplementary Data
 
The consolidated financial statements of the Company, together with the Reports of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm thereon of Eisner LLP and Weiser LLP, appear herein. See Index to Consolidated Financial Statements, appearing on page F-1.

Item 9A.  Controls and Procedures
 
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
 
Our management, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures pursuant to Rule 13a-15 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”).  In designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures, management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives.  In addition, the design of disclosure controls and procedures must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints and that management is required to apply its judgment in evaluating the benefits of possible controls and procedures relative to their costs.  
 
Based on management’s evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that, as of December 31, 2007, our disclosure controls and procedures are designed at a reasonable assurance level and are effective to provide reasonable assurance that information we are required to disclose in reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in Securities and Exchange Commission rules and forms, and 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.
 
Management’s Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
 
A company’s internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles.  Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements.  Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.
 
21

 
Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting, as defined in Exchange Act Rule 13a-15(f).  Management conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting based on the framework in Internal Control—Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission.  Based on this evaluation, management concluded that our internal control over financial reporting was effective as of December 31, 2007. Management reviewed the results of their assessment with our Audit Committee.
 
This Annual Report on Form 10-K does not include an attestation report of the Company's independent registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting. Management's report was not subject to attestation by the Company's registered public accounting firm pursuant to temporary rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission that permit the Company to provide only management's report in this Annual Report on Form 10-K.
 
Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
 
We regularly review our system of internal control over financial reporting and make changes to our processes and systems to improve controls and increase efficiency, while ensuring that we maintain an effective internal control environment.  Changes may include such activities as implementing new, more efficient systems, consolidating activities, and migrating processes.
 
There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the period covered by this Annual Report on Form 10-K that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Item 11.  Executive Compensation
 
Compensation Discussion and Analysis
 
Overview
 
This compensation discussion and analysis describes and analyzes the material elements of compensation awarded to, earned by, or paid to each of our executive officers who served as named executive officers during the last completed fiscal year.  This compensation discussion and analysis focuses on the information contained in the following tables and related footnotes and narrative for primarily the last completed fiscal year, but we also describe compensation actions taken before or after the last completed fiscal year to the extent it enhances the understanding of our executive compensation disclosure.
 
Prior to June 13, 2006, our Board of Directors oversaw and administered our executive compensation program. The compensation committee currently oversees the design and administration of our executive compensation program.
 
The principal elements of our executive compensation program are base salary, annual incentive compensation award, stock options and other benefits and perquisites.  Our other benefits and perquisites consist of automobile payments, related automobile costs, prescription benefits and reimbursement for Medicare payments.  Our philosophy is to position the aggregate of these elements at a level that is commensurate with our size and sustained performance.
 
Compensation Program Objectives and Philosophy
 
The objectives of our compensation program are to:
 
 
a.
Attract, motivate and retain qualified and dedicated executive officers.
 
 
b.
Retain talented executives and motivate them to achieve business objectives that will enhance stockholder value.
 
 
c.
Provide our executive officers with cash incentives to further the interests of the Company and our stockholders.
 
Generally, the compensation of our executive officers is composed of a base salary, an annual incentive compensation award and equity awards in the form of stock options.  In setting base salaries, the compensation committee reviews the individual contributions of the particular executive.  The annual incentive compensation award for 2007 is determined by terms set forth in each executive officer’s employment agreement.  In addition, stock options may be granted to provide the opportunity for long-term compensation based upon the performance of our stock over time.
 

The following is the compensation committee’s policy for persons who do not have employment agreements with the Company:
 
The compensation committee is responsible for determining the annual salary and incentive compensation awards, stock awards and other compensation of executive officers who do not have employment agreements as well as stock awards and other compensation of executive officers who have employment agreements.  In its deliberations regarding compensation of executive officers, the compensation committee considers the following factors:
 
 
a.
Company performance, both separately and in relation to similar companies;
 
 
b.
The individual performance, experience and scope of responsibilities of each executive officer;
 
 
c.
Compensation and stock award information disclosed in the proxy statements of other companies;
 
 
d.
Historical compensation levels and stock awards at the Company;
 
 
e.
The overall competitive environment for executives and the level of compensation necessary to attract and retain executive talent; and
 
 
f.
The recommendations of management.
 
Compensation Process
 
Prior to June 13, 2006, our Board approved the compensation of our named executive officers, including the terms of their employment agreements.  Going forward, for each of our named executive officers, the compensation committee, in accordance with the terms and conditions of any then effective employment agreements, reviews and approves all elements of compensation taking into consideration recommendations from our chief executive officer (for compensation other than his own), as well as competitive market guidance provided at the request of the compensation committee.
 
The Company’s compensation program for executives consists of three elements:
 
 
i.
base salaries
 
 
ii.
performance-based annual incentive compensation awards
 
 
iii.
periodic grants of stock options
 
Base Salaries
 
The salaries for the executive officers are designed to retain qualified and dedicated executive officers. The compensation committee reviews salary recommendations made by the Company’s Chief Executive Officer (other than for executive officers covered by employment agreements), and evaluates individual responsibility levels, performance and length of service.
 
Annual Incentive Compensation Awards
 
Annual incentive compensation awards provide the Company with a means of rewarding performance based upon the attainment of corporate profitability during the year.  Mr. Pagano, pursuant to an employment contract, receives annual incentive compensation awards based upon a percentage of earnings of the Company’s subsidiaries.  Mr. Salek, pursuant to an employment contract that expired December 31, 2007, received annual incentive compensation awards based upon a percentage of earnings of the Company’s subsidiaries.  Mr. Pagano and Mr. Salek accrued an incentive compensation award of $151,778 and $14,235, respectively, for the year ended December 31, 2007. On March 3, 2008, Mr. Pagano waived his right to receive this incentive compensation for 2007.
 

Stock Options
 
Stock options may be granted to provide the opportunity for long-term compensation based upon the performance of our stock over time.  During 2007, no stock options were granted to the Company’s employees, or the executive officers.
 
Employee Benefit and Health Plans
 
The Company has a 401(k) plan, which covers substantially all employees.  Participants in the plan may contribute a percentage of compensation, but not in excess of the maximum allowed under the Internal Revenue Code. The plan provides for matching contributions up to a maximum of 3% of employees’ qualified wages.
 
The Company makes available life and health insurance for full time employees.  Both the Company and the employees contribute to the payment of this plan in accordance with a published schedule as described in the Company’s employment manual.

Item 13.  Certain Relationships and Related Transactions, and Director Independence
 
Related Party Transaction Policies and Procedures
 
Policy
 
It is the policy of the Board of Directors of Colonial Commercial Corp. (the “Company”) that all Interested Transactions with Related Parties, as those terms are defined in this policy, shall be subject to approval or ratification in accordance with the procedures set forth below.
 
Procedures
 
The Board of Directors of the Company, or, if directed by the Board of Directors, the Audit Committee or any other independent committee appointed by the Board of Directors, shall review the material facts of all Interested Transactions that require the Committee’s approval and either approve or disapprove of the entry into the Interested Transaction, subject to the exceptions described below.  If advance Board or committee approval of an Interested Transaction is not feasible, then the Interested Transaction shall be considered and, if the Board or committee determines it to be appropriate, ratified at the Board’s or committee’s next regularly scheduled meeting.  In determining whether to approve or ratify an Interested Transaction, the Board or committee will take into account, among other factors it deems appropriate, whether the Interested Transaction is on terms no less favorable than terms generally available to an unaffiliated third-party under the same or similar circumstances and the extent of the Related Person’s interest in the transaction.
 
The Board of Directors and the Audit Committee have reviewed the Interested Transactions described below in “Standing Pre-Approval for Certain Interested Transactions” and determined that each of the Interested Transactions described therein shall be deemed to be pre-approved or ratified (as applicable) by the Board and the Audit Committee under the terms of this policy.
 
No Director shall participate in any discussion or approval of an Interested Transaction for which he or she is a Related Party, except that the Director shall provide all material information concerning the Interested Transaction to the Board or the committee.
 
If an Interested Transaction will be ongoing, the Board may establish guidelines for the Company’s management to follow in its ongoing dealings with the Related Party.  Thereafter, the Board, on at least an annual basis, shall review and assess ongoing relationships with the Related Party to see that they are in compliance with these guidelines and that the Interested Transaction remains appropriate.
 
Definitions
 
An “Interested Transaction” is any transaction, arrangement or relationship or series of similar transactions, arrangements or relationships (including any indebtedness or guarantee of indebtedness) in which (1) the aggregate amount involved will or may be expected to exceed $120,000 in any calendar year, (2) the Company is a participant, and (3) any Related Party has or will have a direct or indirect material interest (other than solely as a result of being a director or a less than 10 percent beneficial owner of another entity).
 

A “Related Party” is any (a) person who is or was (since the beginning of the last fiscal year for which the Company has filed a Form 10-K and proxy statement, even if they do not presently serve in that role) an executive officer, Director or nominee for election as a Director, (b) greater than 5 percent beneficial owner of the Company’s common stock, or (c) immediate family member of any of the foregoing.  Immediate family member includes a person’s spouse, parents, stepparents, children, stepchildren, siblings, mothers- and fathers-in-law, sons- and daughters-in-law, and brothers- and sisters-in-law and anyone residing in such person’s home (other than a tenant or employee).
 
Standing Pre-Approval for Certain Interested Transactions

4.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
 
To the Board of Directors and Stockholders
Colonial Commercial Corp.
 
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheet of Colonial Commercial Corp. and subsidiaries (the "Company") as of December 31, 2007 and the related consolidated statements of operations, stockholders' equity and cash flows for the year then ended.  These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management.  Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audit.

We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States).  Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement.  We were not engaged to perform an audit of the Company's internal control over financial reporting.  Our audit includes consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company's internal control over financial reporting.  Accordingly, we express no such opinion.  An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, and evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.
 
In our opinion, the financial statements enumerated above present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of Colonial Commercial Corp. and subsidiaries as of December 31, 2007, and the consolidated results of their operations and their consolidated cash flows for the year then ended in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
 
We have also audited the financial statement Schedule II (Valuation and Qualifying Accounts) for the year ended December 31, 2007.  In our opinion, this schedule presents fairly, in all material respects, the information required to be set forth therein.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
 

 
To the Board of Directors and Stockholders of Colonial Commercial Corp. and Subsidiaries:
 
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheet of Colonial Commercial Corp. and Subsidiaries (the "Company") as of December 31, 2006 and the related consolidated statements of operations, stockholders’ equity and cash flows for the years ended December 31, 2006 and 2005.  These financial statements and financial statement schedule are the responsibility of the Company's management.  Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements and financial statement schedule based on our audits.
 
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States).  Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement.  An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements.  An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation.  We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
 
In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of Colonial Commercial Corp. and Subsidiaries as of December 31, 2006 and the consolidated results of their operations and their cash flows for the years ended December 31, 2006 and 2005, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.
 
As discussed in Note 1(j) to the consolidated financial statements, in 2006, the Company changed its method of accounting for stock-based compensation.  Also, the accompanying 2006 and 2005 consolidated financial statements have been restated to correct the accounting for vendor rebates and the computation of diluted earnings per share.
 
We have also audited the financial statement Schedule II (Valuation and Qualifying Accounts) for the years ended December 31, 2006 and 2005. In our opinion, this schedule presents fairly, in all material respects, the information required to be set forth therein.

COLONIAL COMMERCIAL CORP. AND SUBSIDIARIES
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
December 31, 2007, 2006 and 2005
 
1.
 Summary of Significant Accounting Policies and Practices
 
(a) Description of Business
 
Colonial Commercial Corp. (“Colonial”), through its operating Subsidiaries, Universal Supply Group, Inc. (“Universal”), RAL Supply Group, Inc. (“RAL”), American/Universal Supply Inc. (“American”) and S&A Supply, Inc. (“S&A”) (together, the “Company”), is a distributor of heating, ventilation and air conditioning (HVAC), climate control products, plumbing and electrical fixtures and supplies and appliances to building contractors and other users, which the Company considers its only operating segment.  The Company’s products are marketed primarily to HVAC, plumbing and electrical contractors, who, in turn, sell such products to residential and commercial/industrial customers.  The Company’s customers are located in the United States, primarily New Jersey, New York, Massachusetts and portions of eastern Pennsylvania, Connecticut and Vermont.  The Company has no long term agreement with any customer.  The Company deals with its customers on a purchase order by purchase order basis.  The Company has no material long term agreements with any supplier.  The Company enters into agreements with vendors which involve volume rebates, pricing and advertising, all within the standard practices of the industry.  Additionally, certain supplier agreements limit the sale of competitive products in designated markets that the Company serves.  All purchases are made with domestic vendors, some of which, however, may manufacture products in foreign locations.
 
(b) Principles of Consolidation
 
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Colonial and its wholly-owned Subsidiaries.  All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
 
(c) Revenue Recognition
 
Revenue is recognized when the earnings process is complete, which is generally upon shipment or delivery of products in accordance with agreed-upon shipping terms and when title and risk of loss transfers to the customer.  The Company has no further obligations subsequent to shipment or delivery.  Customers have the right to return defective products, which are substantially covered under the manufacturer’s warranty.  The customer receives a credit from the Company for defective products returned and the Company receives a corresponding credit provided by the manufacturer.  The only warranty provided on products sold is provided by the manufacturer.
 
(d) Cash Equivalents
 
The Company considers all highly liquid investment instruments with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents.  There were no cash equivalents at December 31, 2007 and 2006.

(e) Accounts Receivable
 
Accounts receivable consist of trade receivables recorded at original invoice amount, less an estimated allowance for uncollectible accounts. Trade credit is generally extended on a short-term basis; thus trade receivables generally do not bear interest. However, a service charge may be applied to receivables that are past due. These charges, when collected, are included as other income.  Trade receivables are periodically evaluated for collectibility based on past credit history with customers and their current financial condition. Changes in the estimated collectibility of trade receivables are recorded in the results of operations for the period in which the estimate is revised. Trade receivables that are deemed uncollectible are offset against the allowance for uncollectible accounts. The Company generally does not require collateral for trade receivables.
 
(f) Inventory
 
Inventory is stated at the lower of cost or market and consists solely of finished goods.  Cost is determined using the first-in, first-out method.
 
Distribution costs of incoming freight, purchasing, receiving, inspection, warehousing and handling costs are included in selling, general and administrative expenses.  Such costs were $545,985, $431,780 and $421,248 for the years ended December 31, 2007, 2006 and 2005, respectively.
 
The Company’s reserve for slow-moving and obsolete inventory at December 31, 2007 amounted to $432,000, a decrease of $9,137 during the year ended December 31, 2007.
 
(g) Vendor Rebates
 
The Company has arrangements with several vendors that provide rebates to be payable to the Company when the Company achieves any of a number of measures, generally related to the volume level of purchases.  The Company accounts for such rebates as a reduction of inventory until the sale of the product.  Rebates under arrangements with vendors that require a specified cumulative level of purchases are recognized by the Company based on progress toward achieving such levels, provided the rebates are probable and estimable.
 
(h) Property and Equipment
 
Property and equipment are stated at cost.  Depreciation is calculated on the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets as follows:
 
Computer hardware and software
 
3-5 years
     
Furniture and fixtures
 
5 years
     
Automobiles
 
3-5 years
     
Showroom fixtures and displays
 
3 years
 
Leasehold improvements are amortized over the shorter of the lease term or the estimated useful life of the asset.

(i) Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets
 
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 142, "Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets," requires that goodwill be tested for impairment at least annually to determine if the carrying value of the recorded goodwill is impaired.  Goodwill is recorded when the purchase price paid for an acquisition exceeds the estimated fair value of the net identified tangible and intangible assets acquired.  The impairment review process compares the fair value of the reporting unit in which goodwill resides to its carrying value.  If the fair value of the reporting unit is less that its carrying value, an impairment loss is recorded to the extent that the implied fair value of goodwill, as defined under SFAS No. 142, within the reporting unit is less than its carrying value.  Intangible assets determined to have finite lives are amortized over their remaining useful lives.  The Company has determined Universal, RAL and S&A are reporting units.
 
(j) Stock Options
 
Prior to January 1, 2006, the Company used the intrinsic-value method of accounting for stock-based awards granted to employees.  In accordance with SFAS No. 148, “Accounting for Stock Based Compensation – Transition and Disclosure,” the following table presents the effect on net income and net income per share, had compensation cost for the Company’s stock plans been determined consistent with SFAS No. 123, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation”.
 
On January 1, 2006, the Company adopted the modified prospective application method of SFAS No. 123(R), “Share-Based Payment”, which establishes standards for transactions in which an entity exchanges its equity instruments for goods or services. This standard requires an entity to measure the cost of employee services received in exchange for an award of equity instruments based on the grant date fair value of the award. This eliminates the exception to account for such awards using the intrinsic method previously allowable under APB Opinion No. 25. SFAS No. 123 (R) was effective for the first period after December 31, 2005.
 
The following table illustrates the effect on net income if the fair-value-based method had been applied to all outstanding and unvested awards for 2005.

(k)  Net (Loss) Income Per Common Share
 
Basic income per share excludes any dilution.  It is based upon the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period.  Dilutive earnings per share reflect the potential dilution that would occur if securities or other contracts to issue common stock were exercised or converted into common stock.
 
(l)  Income Taxes
 
Income taxes are accounted for under the asset and liability method.  Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases, and operating loss and tax credit carryforwards.  Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled.  The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date.
 
The Company records a valuation allowance against any portion of the deferred income tax asset when it believes, based on the weight of available evidence, it is more likely than not that some portion of the deferred tax asset will not be realized.
 
In June 2006, the FASB issued FASB Interpretation No. 48, Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes-an interpretation FASB No. 109 (“FIN 48”), which prescribes accounting for and disclosure of uncertainty in tax positions.  This interpretation defines the criteria that must be met for the benefits of a tax position to be recognized in the financial statements and the measurement of tax benefits recognized.
 
The Company adopted the provisions of FIN 48 on January 1, 2007.  Under FIN 48, tax positions must meet a “more-likely-than-not” recognition threshold at the effective date to be recognized upon the adoption of FIN 48 and in subsequent periods.  The adoption of FIN 48 had no impact on the Company’s consolidated financial position and did not result in unrecognized tax benefits being recorded.  Accordingly, no corresponding interest and penalties have been accrued.  The Company files income tax returns in the U.S. federal jurisdiction and various states. There are currently no federal or state income tax examinations underway for these jurisdictions.  The Company is no longer subject to U.S. federal income tax examinations by the Internal Revenue Service and state and local tax authorities for tax years before 2003.  The Company does, however, have prior year net operating losses dating back to 1993, which remain open for examination.
 
(m) Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and Long-Lived Assets to Be Disposed Of
 
Long-lived assets, such as intangible assets, furniture, equipment and leasehold improvements, are evaluated for impairment when events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the assets may not be recoverable through estimated undiscounted future cash flows from the use of these assets.  When any such impairment exists, the related assets will be written down to fair value.
 
 
COLONIAL COMMERCIAL CORP. AND SUBSIDIARIES
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements, Continued

(n) Use of Estimates
 
The preparation of the financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period.  Significant estimates include valuation reserves for accounts receivable, inventory and income taxes and valuation of goodwill.  Actual results could differ from those estimates.
 
(o)  Recent Issued Accounting Pronouncements
 
In September 2006, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 157, Fair Value Measurements, (“SFAS 157”).  This Standard defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in generally accepted accounting principles and expands disclosures about fair value measurements.  SFAS 157 is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007 and interim periods within those fiscal years.  The adoption of SFAS 157 is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
 
In February 2007, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 159, The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities, (“FASB 159”).  This standard permits an entity to choose to measure many financial instruments and certain other items at fair value.  The objective is to improve financial reporting by providing entities with the opportunity to mitigate volatility in reported earnings caused by measuring related assets and liabilities differently with having to apply complex accounting provisions.  The adoption of SFAS 159 is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s financial position.
 
In December 2007, the Securities and Exchange Commission issued Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 110, Use of a Simplified Method in Developing Expected Term of Share Options (“SAB 110”).  SAB 110 expresses the current view of the staff that it will accept a company’s election to use the simplified method discussed in Staff Accounting Bulletin 107, Share Based Payment, (“SAB 107”), for estimating the expected term of “plain vanilla” share options regardless of whether the company has sufficient information to make more refined estimates.  SAB 110 became effective for the Company on January 1, 2008.  The adoption of SAB 110 is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s financial position.
 
In December 2007, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 141(revised 2007), Business Combinations, (“FASB 141R”).  This standard requires that entities recognize the assets acquired, liabilities assumed, contractual contingencies and contingent consideration measured at their fair value at the acquisition date for any business combination consummated after the effective date.  It further requires that acquisition-related costs are to be recognized separately from the acquisition and expensed as incurred.  FASB 141R is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2008.  The adoption of FASB 141R is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s financial position.


COLONIAL COMMERCIAL CORP. AND SUBSIDIARIES
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements, Continued
 
In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 160, Noncontrolling Interests in Consolidated Financial Statements–an amendment of ARB No. 51.  SFAS No. 160 requires that the ownership interests in subsidiaries held by parties other than the parent be clearly identified, labeled, and presented in the consolidated statement of financial position within equity, in the amount of consolidated net income attributable to the parent and to the noncontrolling interest on the face of the consolidated statement of income, and that entities provide sufficient disclosures that clearly identify and distinguish between the interests of the parent and the interests of the noncontrolling owners.  SFAS No. 160 is effective for fiscal years, beginning on or after December 15, 2008 and cannot be applied earlier.  The adoption of SFAS No. 160 is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s financial position.
 
(p) Reclassification
 
Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform with the current year presentation of financial statements.  This reclassification has no impact on the Company’s financial statements.
 
2.
 Business Acquisitions
 
S&A Acquisition
 
On September 10, 2007, the Company, through a wholly owned subsidiary, purchased from S&A Supply, Inc., a Massachusetts corporation, (“S&A Supply”) and affiliates of S&A Supply, all of their tangible and intangible assets, including accounts receivable, inventory, fixed assets, but excluding certain accounts receivable and other specifically excluded assets, and assumed certain liabilities, including trade accounts payable and motor vehicle loans.  S&A Supply is a distributor of heating, electrical, and plumbing supplies in the western Massachusetts area.
 
This acquisition is being operated as a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company and under the name of S&A Supply, Inc.  The acquisition expands our geographic trading area and adds electrical equipment and supplies to our product offerings.
 
In connection with the acquisition, the Company entered into three 5-year lease agreements for two locations in Great Barrington, Massachusetts and one location in Pittsfield, Massachusetts for aggregate annual rentals of $180,000, plus real estate taxes and maintenance.  The Company also assumed a $1,425 month-to-month tenancy with a non-related party for a location in North Adams, Massachusetts.
 
The Company also entered into employment agreements with Brian Mead and Adam Mead, minority shareholders of S&A Supply and its affiliates, and a consulting agreement with Nancy Mead, the majority shareholder of S&A Supply and its affiliates for an annual aggregate commitment of approximately $170,000 for salary, automotive expenses and other benefits, plus additional incentives if certain levels of profitability are achieved.  Said agreements expire on December 31, 2010.

 
COLONIAL COMMERCIAL CORP. AND SUBSIDIARIES

The acquisition was accounted for using the purchase method of accounting and was financed out of the Company’s credit facility.  The Company’s financials statements for the year ended December 31, 2007 include the activity of S&A Supply from September 10, 2007 through December 31, 2007.  The purchase price is equal to the book value of the assets on the date of acquisition, plus $315,000, less the book value of the assumed liabilities on the date of acquisition.  The Asset Purchase Agreement provides for adjustments to be made on or about January 18, 2008 related to differences between the book value of accounts receivable and inventory on the date of acquisition and amounts ultimately realized.  On March 26, 2008, the Asset Purchase Agreement was amended to extend the date for making adjusting payments to April 30, 2008 (“Amendment Number 1”).
 
Based on a third party valuation, the purchase price, including acquisition costs, resulted in the recognition of $373,000 of other intangible assets.
 
The fair values of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed for the acquisition are as follows:
 
Inventory
  $ 3,610,000

 Financing Arrangements
 
In connection with the acquisition of S&A Supply, Inc., the Company amended its secured credit facility (“Agreement”) with Wells Fargo Bank, National Association (“Wells”) to increase the Company’s facility from $15 million to $25 million and extended the maturity of the facility from August 1, 2010 to August 1, 2012.  The $25 million facility includes a $1 million structural sublimit, as defined in the Agreement, payable in 24 equal monthly installments, and up to $500,000 of seasonal over-advances.  The initial interest rate on the term loan is prime minus 0.25%, but the interest rate on up to 75% of the loan’s outstanding balance can be converted by the Company to 2½% over LIBOR.
 
The revolving credit line bears interest at .25% below prime.  At December 31, 2007, the Company had a standby letter of credit, which expires on July 31, 2008.  The standby letter of credit reduces the availability of the credit facility by $300,000 and additional reserves determined by the bank further reduce the availability of the credit facility by $100,000.  Borrowings under the credit facility are secured by the available assets of the Company, as defined in the Agreement.  Availability under the revolving credit line was $718,583 as of December 31, 2007 and is determined by a percentage of available assets as defined in the Agreement, less letters of credit and reserves.  The balance outstanding under the revolving line of credit was $18,027,055 as of December 31, 2007.  The interest rate on the revolving credit facility as of December 31, 2007 was 7.0%.
 
The Company believes that the credit facility is sufficient to finance its current operating needs.  However, the business of the Company would be materially and adversely affected if the bank demands payment of the loan and the Company is unable to refinance the loan.  In the event that Mr. Pagano no longer performs the duties of the President of Universal or the Vice President of RAL for any reason other than death or disability, the Company will be considered in default of its credit agreement with Wells Fargo Bank, National Association unless a waiver is obtained.  The facility contains covenants that are determined annually and relate to the Company’s monthly and quarterly net income, quarterly cash flows, quarterly tangible net worth, and annual capital expenditures.  The facility also restricts the payment of dividends, subordinated debt and purchase of securities.  The continuation of the credit facility is conditioned upon the Company and Wells reaching agreement on the covenants.  While the Company and Wells have reached mutually agreeable covenants in the past, there is no assurance that they will be able to do so in the future.  As of December 31, 2007, the Company was in default of its monthly and quarterly net income and quarterly cash flow covenants; however, Wells has waived this event of default and reset the financial covenants for 2008 for a fee of $35,000.  This waiver applies to the quarter ended December 31, 2007 and does not extend beyond this period.

In addition to this fee, Wells stated that they may require the Company to delay the repayment of a $750,000 note to Goldman Associates of New York, Inc. (“Goldman Associates”) which was due on June 30, 2008.  Goldman Associates has extended the term of payment of this note to January 1, 2009.  Michael Goldman, Chairman of the Board of the Company, is the beneficial owner of Goldman Associates.  For additional information regarding Mr. Goldman and Goldman Associates, see Note 17.

The voting rights of the common stockholders and preferred stockholders are based upon the number of shares of convertible preferred stock outstanding.  There are currently less than 600,000 shares of convertible preferred stock outstanding.  The Company's Restated Certificate of Incorporation provides that the Board of Directors is to consist of one class of Directors if there are less than 600,000 shares Convertible Preferred Stock outstanding.  As of December 31, 2007, the number of preferred shares outstanding was 467,500; accordingly, the Board of Directors to be elected at the 2008 annual shareholders’ meeting will consist of one class of Directors elected by the holders of common stock and convertible preferred stock voting together as one class on a share for share basis.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements, Continued
On September 29, 2006, the Company adopted the Colonial Commercial Corp. 2006 Stock Plan, (the “2006 Plan”).  The 2006 Plan enables the Company to grant equity and equity-linked awards to our Directors, officers, employees and other persons who provide services to the Company.  The 2006 Plan is intended to allow us to provide incentives that will (1) strengthen the desire of highly competent persons to provide services to us and (2) further stimulate their efforts on our behalf.
 
The following is a summary of certain provisions of the 2006 Plan.
 
Shares Available. The maximum number of shares of common stock that may be delivered under the 2006 Plan is 1,000,000, subject to adjustment for certain specified changes to the Company's capital structure.  As of December 31, 2007, 925,000 options were available to be issued.
 
Eligibility. All directors, officers and other employees and other persons who provide services to the Company are eligible to participate in the 2006 Plan.
 
Administration. The administrator of the 2006 Plan will be the board or any other committee which the board designates to serve as the administrator of the 2006 Plan.
 
Types of Awards. The types of awards that may be made under the 2006 Plan are stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock awards, and stock units. The board or the committee that administers the 2006 Plan will fix the terms of each award, including, to the extent relevant, the following: (1) exercise price for options, base price for stock appreciation rights, and purchase price, if any, for restricted stock awards, (2) vesting requirements and other conditions to exercise, (3) term and termination, (4) effect, if any, of a change of control and (5) method of exercise and of any required payment by the recipient.
 
Term of Plan. No award may be granted under the 2006 Plan after the close of business on the day immediately preceding the tenth anniversary of the adoption of the 2006 Plan. However, all awards made prior to such time will remain in effect in accordance with their terms.
 
On December 6, 2006, 100,000 10-year options were granted to independent directors at the closing market price of that day, or $1.85, 40,000 options vested immediately and 20,000 options vest and become exercisable on each of the first three anniversaries of the grant date.  If an independent director resigns, their unvested options are immediately forfeited and they have 60 days to exercise their vested options.
 
On January 22, 2007, Phillip Siegel resigned as a Director and his 15,000 options that would have vested on each of the first three anniversaries of the Grant Date were forfeited and he had sixty days from the date of his resignation to exercise his 10,000 vested options.  Mr. Siegel did not exercise his 10,000 vested options and said options were forfeited.
 
No options were granted during the year ended December 31, 2007.
 
The Company uses the Black-Scholes valuation method to estimate the fair value of stock options at the grant date.  The Black-Scholes valuation model uses the option exercise price and the number of options expected to be exercised as well as assumptions related to the expected price volatility of the Company’s stock, the rate of return on risk-free investments, the period during which the options will be outstanding, and the expected dividend yield for the Company’s stock to estimate the fair value of the stock option on the grant date.  The fair value of the stock options, which are subject to grading vesting, is expensed on a straight-line basis over the vesting life of the stock options.
 
 
COLONIAL COMMERCIAL CORP. AND SUBSIDIARIES
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements, Continued
The fair value of each option granted on December 6, 2006 under the 2006 Stock Plan of $1.78 was estimated using the Black-Scholes option pricing method using the following assumptions:
 
   
2006
 
         
Historical stock price volatility
    160.50 %
         
Risk-free interest rate
    4.44 %
         
Expected life (in years)
    6.34  
         
Dividend yield
    0.00  
         
 
The valuation assumptions were determined as follows:
 
Historical stock price volatility: The Company used the daily closing stock prices to calculate historical annualized volatility.
 
Risk-free interest rate: The Company bases the risk-free interest rate on the interest rate payable on U.S. Treasury securities in effect at the time of the grant for a period that is commensurate with the assumed expected option life.
 
Expected life: The expected life of the options represents the period of time options are expected to be outstanding.  The Company uses historical data of previously issued options to estimate expected option life.
 
Dividend yield: The estimate for dividend yield is 0.00, because the Company has not historically paid, and does not intend for the foreseeable future to pay, a dividend.

Prior to January 1, 2006, the Company used the intrinsic method previously allowed under APB Opinion No. 25 to value options. The number of options outstanding under the variable pricing method as of December 31, 2005 was 43,000, which caused the Company to incur additional stock-based compensation income of $74,450 for the year ended December 31, 2005.  As of January 1, 2006 all options outstanding were fully vested therefore the Company was not required to make a stock compensation expense entry under the rules of SFAS No. 123(R).
 
In 2006, the Company incurred stock-based compensation expense of $53,412 and, as of December 31, 2006, had unrecognized compensation of $80,118 which was expected to be recognized over a period of three years under the modified prospective application method of SFAS No. 123(R) for options granted on December 6, 2006.  In 2007, the Company incurred $30,364 in stock-based compensation expense and as of December 31, 2007 had unrecognized compensation of $49,754.
 
On January 22, 2007, a Director resigned and his 10,000 shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of his options expired sixty days after his resignation.  In addition, his 15,000 options that vest over three years were forfeited on his date of resignation.  On January 2, 2007 an employee exercised 52,000 options.

 Net (Loss) Income Per Common Share
 
Basic net income per share is computed by dividing income available to common shareholders by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding. Diluted earnings per share reflect, in periods in which they have a dilutive effect, the impact of common shares issuable upon exercise of stock options.
 
A reconciliation between the numerators and denominators of the basic and diluted income per common share is as follows:

Employee stock options totaling 97,000 for the year ended December 31, 2007 were not included in the net loss per share calculation because their effect would have been anti-dilutive.  Convertible preferred stock, convertible into 467,500 shares of common stock for the year ended December 31, 2007 was not included in the net loss per share because its effect would have been anti-dilutive.  Convertible notes, in the principal amount of $475,000 and $525,000, convertible into 158,333 and 175,000 shares of common stock, respectively, were not included in the net loss per share calculation for the years ended December 31, 2007 and 2006, respectively, because their effect would have been anti-dilutive. There were no common stock equivalents excluded from the above diluted net income per share calculations for 2005.

 Fair Value of Financial Instruments
 
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No.107, “Disclosures about Fair Value of Financial Instruments,” defines the fair value of a financial instrument as the amount at which the instrument could be exchanged in a current transaction between willing parties.  The carrying value of all financial instruments classified as current assets or liabilities is deemed to approximate fair value because of the short term nature of these instruments.
 
The Company has determined that it is not practical to assess the fair value of its fixed rate notes payable without incurring excessive costs considering the materiality of the instruments to the Company.

(c) Litigation
 
Universal Supply Group, Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, is a New York corporation (“Universal”).  On June 25, 1999, Universal acquired substantially all of the assets of Universal Supply Group, Inc., a New Jersey corporation, including its name, pursuant to the terms of a purchase agreement.  The Company filed a copy of the purchase agreement with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 30, 1999 as Exhibit 10(g) on Form 10KSB, and the Company filed a copy of an amendment to the purchase agreement on July 9, 1999 as Exhibit 10(a)(ii) on Form 8-K.  Subsequent to the sale, Universal Supply Group, Inc. (the selling corporation) formerly known as Universal Engineering Co., Inc., changed its name to Hilco, Inc.  Hilco, Inc. acquired the assets of Amber Supply Co., Inc., formerly known as Amber Oil Burner Supply Co., Inc., in 1998, prior to Hilco’s sale of assets to Universal.  Hilco, Inc. is hereinafter referred to as the “Predecessor.”  The majority shareholders of Hilco, Inc. were John A. Hildebrandt and Paul Hildebrandt.
 
The Company understands that Predecessor and many other companies have been sued in the Superior Court of New Jersey (Middlesex County) by plaintiffs filing lawsuits alleging injury due to asbestos. Currently, there exist 86 plaintiffs in these lawsuits relating to alleged sales of asbestos products, or products containing asbestos, by the Predecessor. The Company never sold any asbestos related products.

 
COLONIAL COMMERCIAL CORP. AND SUBSIDIARIES
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements, Continued
Of the existing plaintiffs as of December 31, 2007, 15 filed actions in 2007, 7 filed actions in 2006, 14 filed actions in 2005, 33 filed actions in 2004, 15 filed actions in 2003, and 2 filed actions in 2002. There are 126 other plaintiffs that have had their actions dismissed and 12 other plaintiffs that have settled as of December 31, 2007 for a total of $3,357,500. There has been no judgment against the Predecessor.  Subsequent to December 31, 2007, one of the existing cases was dismissed by summary judgment.
 
Our Universal subsidiary was named by 36 plaintiffs; of these, 11 filed actions in 2007, 6 filed actions in 2006, 11 filed actions in 2005, 5 filed actions in 2001, 1 filed an action in 2000, and 2 filed actions in 1999.  Six plaintiffs naming Universal have had their actions dismissed and, of the total $3,357,500 of settled actions, 2 plaintiffs naming Universal have settled for $26,500.  No money was paid by Universal in connection with any settlement.  Following these dismissed and settled actions, there currently exist 28 plaintiffs that name Universal.
 
As set forth in more detail below, the Company has been indemnified against asbestos-based claims, and insurance companies are defending the interests of the Predecessor and the Company in these cases.
 
Based on advice of counsel, the Company believes that none of the litigation that was brought against the Company’s Universal subsidiary through December 31, 2007 is material, and that the only material litigation that was brought against Predecessor through that date was Rhodes v. A.O. Smith Corporation, filed on April 26, 2004 in the Superior Court of New Jersey, Law Division, Middlesex County, Docket Number MID-L-2979-04AS. The Company was advised that the Rhodes case was settled for $3,250,000 (“Settlement”) under an agreement reached in connection with a $10,000,000 jury verdict that was rendered on August 5, 2005. The Company was not a defendant in the Rhodes case.
 
On April 29, 2005, prior to the Rhodes case trial, the Predecessor filed a third party complaint against Sid Harvey Industries (“Third Party Complaint”) in an action demanding contributor payment in connection with the Settlement. Sid Harvey Industries moved successfully for summary judgment.  The Predecessor filed an appeal as to the dismissal of Predecessor’s Third Party Complaint.  In a decision dated December 29, 2006, the Superior Court of New Jersey, Appellate Division, reversed the dismissal of Predecessor’s Third Party Complaint and remanded the matter for further proceedings as to Predecessor’s claim for contribution.
 
The Company believes that Rhodes differed from the other lawsuits in that plaintiff established that he contracted mesothelioma as a result of his occupational exposure to asbestos dust and fibers and that a predecessor of the Company was a major supplier of the asbestos containing products that allegedly caused his disease.
 
Indemnification
 
John A. Hildebrandt, Paul Hildebrandt and the Predecessor have jointly and severally agreed to indemnify our Universal subsidiary from and against any and all damages, liabilities and claims due to exposure to asbestos at any time prior to the June 25, 1999 closing of the purchase agreement referred to earlier.  These agreements are set forth in the purchase agreement. Paul Hildebrandt, one of the indemnitors, was a Director of the Company from September 29, 2004 to January 28, 2005.
 
 
COLONIAL COMMERCIAL CORP. AND SUBSIDIARIES
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements, Continued

The indemnitors may use their own counsel to defend these claims. The indemnitors are not liable for any settlement effected without their consent. The indemnitors may settle and pay money claims without the consent of the Company. There is no indemnification unless claims aggregate $50,000; once this trigger point is reached, indemnification is required for all claims, including the first $50,000, but excluding claims of less than $10,000. The indemnification requirement survives at least until 30 days after the running of any relevant statutes of limitation.
 
The obligation of the indemnitors is joint and several, so that the Company can have recourse against any one or more of these indemnitors, whether or not any other indemnitor has previously defaulted on its obligation to us. There are no other limitations to our rights to indemnification.  The Company cannot be certain that the indemnitors have the financial wherewithal to meet their obligations to indemnify the Company.
 
Insurance
 
The assets that the Predecessor sold to us included its insurance policies and other agreements and contracts. The policies provide coverage for liability accruing during the periods for which premiums were paid.  The Predecessor was formed in 1940. Copies of policies are available for each year beginning in 1970 and ending with the closing under the purchase agreement in 1999. Copies of policies for the period from 1940 to 1969 are not available.
 
Insurance companies acknowledge coverage for potential asbestos claims under certain of these policies.  Insurance companies under additional policies have reserved their right to deny coverage but have continued to defend and indemnify the Predecessor and the Company under the contested policies.
 
There are periods during the years from 1940 to 1999 in which our Predecessor did not have coverage for potential asbestos claims.  Subject to litigation, insurance companies may maintain that the existence of these periods results in coverage for only a portion of a particular injury that varies with the period during which there was asbestos coverage relating to the injury, and that the balance of any settlement or judgment is to be paid by the insured.  As of December 31, 2007, no insurance company has claimed any contribution for a gap in coverage except for a claim for $160 made by one insurance company to the Predecessor in 1995.  The Predecessor asserted that it had no obligation to pay this amount and did not make any payment.
 
Insurance companies have, as of December 31, 2007, defended us and the Predecessor, and have paid all settlement amounts and defense costs.  Except for $160 referred to above, the insurance companies have not requested any payments from us or from the Predecessor.
 
Our Universal subsidiary has not engaged in the sale of asbestos products since its formation in 1997. Its product liability policies for all years since 1998 exclude asbestos claims.
 
General
 
Regardless of indemnification and insurance coverage, we do not in any event consider our Company to be liable for the asbestos-based lawsuits that name us or for any other claim that arises as a result of actions or omissions by Predecessor companies. We expressly disclaimed the assumption of any liabilities when we purchased the assets of the Predecessor. It is our opinion that the existing asbestos litigation will not have a material adverse effect on the Company.  Nevertheless, we could be materially and adversely affected if we are held liable for substantial asbestos claims or if the Company incurs substantial legal or settlement costs. This material and adverse effect would occur if indemnitors fail to honor their indemnification agreements and insurance is not available either because policy limits are exceeded, or because insurance companies successfully claim limitations on their liabilities by reason of gaps in coverage or otherwise.
 
 
COLONIAL COMMERCIAL CORP. AND SUBSIDIARIES
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements, Continued

Since we regard as remote the potential payment of any asbestos-based claim, we have not accrued any balance for any period relating to asbestos claims, and we have not recorded any amount for asbestos claims for any period in any of our financial statements.
 
Other Litigation
 
The Company is periodically involved in other litigation in the ordinary course of business.  The Company vigorously defends all matters in which the Company or its subsidiaries are named defendants and, for insurable losses, maintains significant levels of insurance to protect against adverse judgments, claims or assessments.  Although the adequacy of existing insurance coverage or the outcome of any legal proceedings cannot be predicted with certainty, the Company does not believe the ultimate liability associated with any claims or litigation will have a material impact to its financial condition or results of operations.
 
(d) Standby Letter of Credit
 
The Company has a standby letter of credit in the amount of $300,000 which expires on July 31, 2008.
