EMERGENT
GROUP INC and SUBSIDIARIES


NOTES
TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS





1.
            BUSINESS





Emergent
Group Inc. (“Emergent”) is the parent company of PRI Medical Technologies, Inc.
(“PRI Medical”), its wholly owned and only operating subsidiary. Emergent and
PRI Medical are referred to collectively hereinafter as the “Company.” PRI
Medical provides mobile laser/surgical services, along with technical support,
on a per procedure basis to hospitals, out-patient surgery centers, and
physicians' offices.





2.
            BASIS
      OF PRESENTATION





The
accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of Emergent
have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and
Exchange Commission ("SEC"). Certain information and footnote disclosures
normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting
principles generally accepted in the United States have been condensed or
omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. These unaudited condensed
consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited
consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s
Annual Report on Form 10-KSB for the year ended December 31, 2007. In the
opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated
financial statements reflect all adjustments, which are of a normal recurring
nature, necessary for a fair presentation of the results for the periods
presented.





The
results of operations presented for the three months ended March 31, 2008 are
not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for any other interim
period or any future fiscal year.





Principles of
Consolidation


The
consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Emergent and its
wholly owned subsidiaries. Also, in accordance with the Financial Accounting
Standards Board Interpretation No. 46R, “Consolidation of Variable Interest
Entities” the Company has accounted for its equity investments in ten limited
liability companies under the full consolidation method. All significant
intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated through
consolidation.





Use of
Estimates


The
preparation of the condensed consolidated financial statements in accordance
with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make
estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and
liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the
financial statements, and the reported amounts of income and expenses during the
reporting period. Actual results could differ significantly from those
estimates.





Accounts Receivable and
Concentration of Business and Credit Risks


We market
our services primarily to hospitals and out-patient centers located in
California, Nevada, Utah, Colorado and Arizona. Our equipment rental and
technician services are subject to competition from other similar businesses.
Our accounts receivable represent financial instruments with potential credit
risk. We offer credit terms and credit limits to most of our customers based on
the creditworthiness of such customers. However, we retain the right to place
such customers on credit hold should their account become delinquent. We
maintain an allowance for doubtful accounts for estimated losses should
customers fail to make required payments. In addition, we monitor the age of
customer account balances, historical bad debt experience, customer
creditworthiness, customer specific information, and changes in payment patterns
when making estimates of the collectibility of trade receivables. Accounts
receivable are written off when all collection attempts have failed. Our
allowance for doubtful accounts will be increased if circumstances warrant.
Based on the information available, management believes that our net accounts
receivable are collectible.





Inventory


Inventory
consists of finished goods primarily used in connection with the delivery of our
mobile surgical equipment rental and services business. Inventory is stated at
the lower of cost or market, on a first-in, first-out
basis.

Stock-Based
Compensation




Compensation
costs related to stock options are determined accordance with SFAS
No. 123R, Share-Based Payments, using the modified prospective method.
Under this method, compensation cost recognized during the quarters ended March
31, 2008 and 2007 includes compensation cost for all share-based payments
granted prior to but not yet vested as of January 1, 2006, and all grants
subsequent to that date, based on the grant date fair value, which is amortized
over the remaining vesting period for such options. There were no options
granted during the quarters ended March 31, 2008 and 2007. For the quarters
ended March 31, 2008 and 2007 compensation costs related to common stock options
were $2,996 and $2,761, respectively.




The 2002
Employee Benefit and Consulting Services Compensation Plan (the “2002 Plan”) was
adopted in 2002 for the purpose of providing incentives to key employees,
officers, and consultants of the Company who provide significant services to the
Company. As of March 31, 2008, there are 650,000 common shares authorized for
grant under the 2002 Plan. Options will not be granted for a term of more than
ten years from the date of grant. Generally, options will vest evenly over a
period of five years, and the 2002 Plan expires in March 2012. Incentive stock
options granted under the 2002 are non-statutory stock options. As of March 31,
2008, the number of shares reserved for future awards was 217,957.

In
addition to options granted under the 2002 Plan, as of March 31, 2008 we have
330,500 restricted award shares issued and outstanding of which 105,000 shares
were granted to executive officers and directors in each of March 2008 and 2007,
respectively. Award shares generally vest in equal installments over five years
from the date of issuance. Such award shares are issued from time to time to
executive officers, directors and employees of the Company. Non-vested award
shares are subject to forfeiture in the event that the recipient is no longer
employed by the Company at the time of vesting, subject to the Board’s right to
waive the forfeiture provisions. Compensation expense related to such shares is
determined as of the issuance date based on the fair value of the shares issued
and is amortized over the related vesting period. Total compensation expense
related to the award shares issued in March 2008 and 2007 was $320,250 and
$341,250, respectively, which are being amortized over the vesting period of
five years. Compensation expense related to outstanding award shares was $26,780
and $5,729 for the three months ended March 31, 2008 and 2007,
respectively.





Earnings Per
Share


The
Company utilizes SFAS No. 128, "Earnings per Share." Basic earnings per share
are computed by dividing earnings available to common shareholders by the
weighted-average number of common shares outstanding.  Diluted
earnings per share is computed similar to basic earnings per share except that
the denominator is increased to include the number of additional common shares
that would have been outstanding if the potential common share equivalents had
been issued and if the additional common shares were dilutive. Common equivalent
shares are excluded from the computation if their effect is
anti-dilutive.

Recent Accounting
Pronounments




In
September 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 157, Fair Value Measurements (SFAS
157). SFAS 157 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. The Company is required to
adopt the provision of SFAS 157, as applicable, beginning in fiscal year
2008.  The adoption of SFAS 157 did not have a material impact on the
Company's financial position or results of operations.

              DEBT
      OBLIGATIONS




The
Company maintains a revolving credit line (the “Revolver”) for $1 million, which
is collateralized by accounts receivable and certain fixed assets. Borrowings
under the Revolver, as amended, are based on 80% of eligible receivables, as
defined. In addition, the Revolver provides for an annual renewal fee equal to
1% of the capital availability amount, as defined. Borrowings under the Revolver
bear interest at the prime rate (5.25% as of March 31, 2008), plus 2%. In May
2007, the Revolver automatically renewed for a one year period and the Company
paid the lender a renewal fee of $10,000, which is being amortized over the loan
term. As of March 31, 2008 and 2007 there were no amounts were outstanding under
the Revolver.





The
Revolver, as amended, requires the Company to maintain a tangible net worth of
at least $1.5 million and requires the lender to pay the Company interest on
cash collections in excess of amounts borrowed under the Revolver at a rate of
2.25% below the prime rate. As of March 31, 2008 the Company was in compliance
with the terms of its revolving credit agreement.





The
Company is currently negotiating a new revolving credit agreement with a bank,
which we anticipate will become effective concurrent with the expiration and/or
termination of its previous credit agreement in May 2008.





The
Company incurred total net interest expense of $62,432 and $51,804 for the three
months ended March 31, 2008 and 2007, respectively.

      LIABILITY COMPANIES





In
connection with expanding its business in certain commercial and geographic
areas, PRI Medical will at times help to form Limited Liability Companies
(“LLCs”) in which it will acquire either a minority or majority interest and
offer the remaining interests to other investors. These LLCs acquire certain
medical equipment for use in their respective business activities which
generally focus on surgical procedures. PRI Medical helped to form and acquire
equity interests in various LLCs in Colorado and California and currently holds
interests in ten LLCs as of March 31, 2008. During the second half of 2007, PRI
Medical helped to form four new LLCs. Such LLCs acquired medical equipment for
rental purposes under equipment financing leases. The third party investors in
each respective LLC generally provide the lease financing company with
individual proportionate lease guarantees based on their respective ownership
percentages in the LLCs. In addition, PRI Medical will provide such financing
companies with its corporate guarantee based on its respective ownership
interest in each LLC. In certain instances, PRI Medical has provided such
financing companies with an overall corporate guarantee in connection with
equipment financing transactions. In such instances, the individual investors in
each respective LLC will generally indemnify PRI Medical against losses, if any,
incurred in connection with its corporate guarantee.

Critical
Accounting Policies





Our
discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations are
based upon our financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with
generally accepted accounting principles in the United States. The preparation
of financial statements requires managers to make estimates and disclosures on
the date of the financial statements. On an on-going basis, we evaluate our
estimates including, but not limited to, those related to revenue recognition,
inventory valuation and property and equipment. We use authoritative
pronouncements, historical experience and other assumptions as the basis for
making judgments. Actual results could differ from those estimates. We believe
that the following critical accounting policies affect our more significant
judgments and estimates in the preparation of our financial
statements.





Revenue Recognition. Revenue
is recognized when the services are performed and billable. We are required to
make judgments based on historical experience and future expectations, as to the
realizability of goods and services billed to our customers. These judgments are
required to assess the propriety of the recognition of revenue based on Staff
Accounting Bulletin (“SAB”) No. 104, “Revenue Recognition,” and related
guidance. We make such assessments based on the following factors: (a)
customer-specific information, and (b) historical experience for issues not yet
identified.


10


Inventory Valuation. We are
required to make judgments based on historical experience and future
expectations as to the realizability of our inventory. We make these assessments
based on the following factors: (a) existing orders and usage, (b) age of the
inventory, and (c) historical experience.





Property and Equipment. We
are required to make judgments based on historical experience and future
expectations as to the realizability of our property and equipment. We made
these assessments based on the following factors: (a) the estimated useful lives
of such assets, (b) technological changes in our industry, and (c) the changing
needs of our customers.

Comparison
of the Three Months Ended March 31, 2008 to March 31, 2007





The
Company generated revenues of $4,504,289 in 2008 compared to $4,382,808 in 2007.
The increase in revenues in 2008 of $121,481 or 3% is primarily related to an
increase in revenues from our surgical procedures. Revenues from our surgical
and cosmetic procedures represented approximately 95% and 5% of total revenues
for 2008 and 94% and 6% for 2007, respectively.





Cost of
goods sold was $2,625,834 in 2008 or 58% of revenues for 2008 compared to
$2,567,105 or 59% of revenues for 2007, respectively. Costs of goods sold
primarily consist of payroll costs and related expenses for technicians, cost of
disposables consumed, depreciation and amortization related to equipment,
insurance costs and other operating costs incurred in rendering mobile medical
equipment and technician services. The overall dollar increase in cost of goods
sold of $58,729 or 2% for 2008 is generally due to increases in disposable
costs, equipment maintenance costs, and to depreciation and amortization
expense. Disposable costs increased as a result of a change in the mix of
surgical procedures rendered to customers whereby a greater number of higher
priced procedures were performed in 2008 compared to 2007, which required more
expensive disposable items while depreciation and amortization expense increased
due to equipment purchases. The net change in other cost categories included in
cost of goods sold remained relatively consistent in 2008 compared to
2007.





Gross
profit from operations was $1,878,455 in 2008 compared to $1,815,703 in 2007.
Gross profit as a percentage of revenues was 42% in 2008 compared to 41% in
2007. Gross margins may vary from quarter to quarter depending on the type of
surgical procedures performed due to the fact that certain procedures require
more expensive disposable items. In addition, gross margin rates will vary from
period to period depending upon other factors including pricing considerations,
and equipment and technician utilization rates. The gross margin for 2008 is not
necessarily indicative of the margins that may be realized in future
periods.




11





Selling,
general, and administrative expenses were $1,123,853 in 2008 or 25% of
revenue compared to $1,088,224 in 2007 or 24% of revenue. Such costs
include, among others, payroll and related expenses, insurance costs and
occupancy costs. The increase in selling, general and administrative expenses of
$35,629 in 2008 is primarily related to increased payroll expenses, including
commissions, related to sales personnel.





Other
income (expense) was $(49,780) in 2008 compared to $(29,482) in 2007. Other
income (expense) includes interest income and expense, gains and losses on
disposal of property and equipment, and other miscellaneous income and expense
items. The net increase in other income (expense) of $(20,298) is primarily
related to an increase in interest expense of $10,628, and a decrease of $9,670
in gain on disposal of property and equipment and other income in 2008 compared
to 2007. The increase in interest costs relates to new equipment leases entered
into during the current and prior years.





The
minority interest (ownership interests held by non-affiliates) in net income of
limited liability companies was $212,422 in 2008 compared to $124,985 in 2007.
In 2008 and 2007 we held minority interests in ten and six entities,
respectively. As of March 31, 2008 and 2007, in accordance with the Financial
Accounting Standards Board Interpretation No. 46R, “Consolidation of Variable
Interest Entities”, the Company accounted for its equity investments in entities
in which it holds a minority interest under the full consolidation
method.





Net
income was $431,900 in 2008 compared to $517,110 in 2007. The decrease in net
income of $85,210 for 2008 compared to 2007 is attributable to the changes in
revenues and expenses as discussed above. Provision for income taxes was $60,500
in 2008 compared to $55,902 in 2007. The Company has net operating loss
carryforwards for federal tax purposes. The provision for income taxes of as of
March 31, 2008 relates to state taxes and to federal Alternative Minimum Taxes
(AMT). Basic and fully diluted net income per share for 2008 was $0.08 and
$0.07, respectively, compared to basic and fully diluted net of income per share
for 2007 of $0.10 and $0.09, respectively. Basic and fully diluted shares
outstanding for 2008 were 5,650,498 and 5,912,217, respectively, and 5,442,961
and 5,783,891 for 2007, respectively.





Liquidity
and Capital Resources





The
Company maintains a revolving credit line (the “Revolver”) for $1 million, which
is collateralized by accounts receivable and certain fixed assets. Borrowings
under the Revolver, as amended, are based on 80% of eligible receivables, as
defined. In addition, the Revolver provides for an annual renewal fee equal to
1% of the capital availability amount, as defined. Borrowings under the Revolver
bear interest at the prime rate (5.25% as of March 31, 2008), plus 2%. In May
2007, the Revolver automatically renewed for a one year period and the Company
paid the lender a renewal fee of $10,000, which is being amortized over the loan
term. As of March 31, 2008, no amounts were outstanding under the
Revolver.





The
Company is currently negotiating a new revolving credit agreement with a bank,
which we anticipate will become effective concurrent with the expiration and/or
termination of its previous credit agreement in May 2008.





The
Revolver, as amended, requires the Company to maintain a tangible net worth of
at least $1.5 million and requires the lender to pay the Company interest on
cash collections in excess of amounts borrowed under the Revolver at a rate of
2.25% below the prime rate. As of March 31, 2008 the Company was in compliance
with the terms of its revolving credit agreement.





The
Company had cash and cash equivalents of $1,532,150 at March 31, 2008. Cash
provided by operating activities for the three months ended March 31, 2008 was
$622,385. Cash generated from operations includes net income of $431,900,
depreciation and amortization of $362,873, minority interest in net income of
$212,422, stock-based compensation of $29,775, decreases in accounts receivable
of $21,384, deposits and other assets of $24,283 and an increase in accounts
payable of $173,742; offset by increases in inventory of $39,848, prepaid
expenses of $16,673 and a decrease in accrued expenses and other liabilities of
$577,473. Cash used in investing activities was $212,968 and consisted of
purchase of property and equipment of $52,052, cash distributions of $213,416 to
members of limited liability companies, offset by contributions from new members
to limited liability companies of $52,500. Cash used for financing activities
was $1,920,921 and consisted of payments on lease and debt obligations of
$284,604 and $25,222, respectively, and the payment of dividends on common stock
of $1,686,095, offset by proceeds of $75,000 from equipment refinancing. In
addition, during the three months ended March 31, 2008 we borrowed and repaid
$4,500,000 under our revolving line of credit.

The
Company had cash and cash equivalents of $682,989 at March 31, 2007. Cash
provided by operating activities for the three months ended March 31, 2007 was
$1,068,790. Cash generated from operations includes net income of $517,110,
depreciation and amortization of $361,417, minority interest in net income of
$124,985, decrease in inventory of $160,724, stock-based compensation expense of
$21,490, decreases in deposits and other assets of $38,476, and an increase in
accrued expenses of $10,229; offset by increases in accounts receivable of
$90,684 and a decrease in accounts payable of $64,760. Cash used in investing
activities was $244,686 related to the purchase of property and equipment of
$78,831 and to cash distributions of $177,935 to members of limited liability
companies; offset by net proceeds of $4,580 from the disposition of property and
equipment and contributions for new members to limited liability companies of
$7,500. Cash used for financing activities was $1,459,727 from payments on lease
and debt obligations of $263,048 and $102,430, respectively, and payment of
dividends on common stock of $1,094,249. In addition, during the three months
ended March 31, 2007 we borrowed and repaid $3,928,100 under our line of
credit.





We
anticipate that our future liquidity requirements will arise from the need to
finance our accounts receivable and inventories, and from the need to fund our
current debt and lease obligations and capital expenditures. The primary sources
of funding for such requirements will be cash generated from operations,
borrowings under debt facilities and trade payables, and raising additional
capital from the sale of equity or other securities. The Company believes that
it can generate sufficient cash flow from these sources to fund its on-going
operations for at least the next twelve months.





Item 3. Controls and
Procedures




We
maintain disclosure controls and procedures, which are designed to ensure that
information required to be disclosed in the reports we file or submit under the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, is recorded, processed, summarized
and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange
Commissions rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and
communicated to our management, including our CEO and CFO, as appropriate, to
allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.






Under the
supervision and with the participation of our management, including our CEO and
CFO, an evaluation was performed on the effectiveness of the design and
operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period
covered by this quarterly report. Based on that evaluation, our management,
including our CEO and CFO, concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures
were effective as of the end of the period covered by this report.






There
were no changes in the Company’s internal controls over financial reporting
during the most recently completed fiscal quarter that have materially affected
or are reasonably likely to materially affect the Company’s internal control
over financial reporting.
