The consolidated balance sheet of the Company as of June 30, 2007 is derived from the financial statements included in the Annual Report but does not include all disclosures required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States.  The other consolidated financial statements presented in this quarterly report are unaudited but include all adjustments that are of a normal recurring nature that management considers necessary for the fair statement of the results for the interim periods.  Results for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of results for the full fiscal year.



To conform to the current year presentation, the consolidated statement of cash flow as of December 31, 2006 reflects a reclassification from cash and cash equivalents to accounts payable related to book overdrafts.

NOTE 2.    INCOME PER SHARE



Basic income per share is computed by dividing the net income by the weighted average shares of outstanding common stock, $.01 par value per share ("Common Stock").  The calculation of diluted income per share is similar to basic income per share except that the denominator includes potentially dilutive Common Stock such as stock options and non-vested restricted stock.

The following table represents the computation of net income per share:

As of December 31, 2007, there were approximately $10.8 million of unrecognized compensation costs related to non-vested share-based arrangements granted under the Company's share-based compensation plans.  Those costs are expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of approximately 2.0 years.



Stock Options



On November 14, 2007, the date of the Company's most recent annual meeting, the Company granted stock options for an aggregate of 30,000 shares of Common Stock to five non-employee directors under the 2004 Non-Employee Director Stock Option Plan (the "2004 Non-Employee Director Plan") and 6,000 shares of Common Stock to an employee director under the 2004 Stock Incentive Plan.  Pursuant to the 2004 Non-Employee Director Plan, stock options are granted on the Company's annual meeting date to directors who are re-elected to the Company's board of directors (the "Board") at the annual meeting.  All of the stock options granted on November 14, 2007, are exercisable three years from the date of grant if such persons continue to serve as a director until that date. The exercise price of those stock options is $24.31 per share, which was the closing price of the Common Stock on the date of grant. The weighted-average grant-date fair value of the options granted was $8.75 per share based on the Black-Scholes option-pricing model. The options expire ten years from the date of grant.

NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS



On August 20, 2007, the Board granted stock options to 24 managerial employees for 347,150 shares of Common Stock under the 2004 Stock Incentive Plan.  The stock options are due to vest in equal thirds over a three-year period on dates that are two business days after the Company's financial results for each of the fiscal years ending June 30, 2008, 2009 and 2010, are publicly announced, but only if the person receiving the grant is still employed by the Company at the time of vesting.  The exercise price of those stock options is $23.59 per share, which was the closing price of the Common Stock on the effective date of grant.  The weighted-average grant-date fair value of the options granted was $8.76 per share based on the Black-Scholes option-pricing model.  The options expire ten years from the date of grant.



The weighted-average grant date fair value of options granted during the six months ended December 31, 2007 was estimated on the grant date using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model with the assumptions noted in the table below.  Expected volatilities are based on historical volatility of the Common Stock and other factors.  The risk-free rate for periods within the contractual life of the option is based on the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the time of grant.  The expected life of options represents the period of time that options granted are expected to be outstanding and is derived from historical terms and other factors.

|(1)  The intrinsic value of a stock option is the amount by which the current market value of the underlying Common Stock exceeds the exercise price of the option.
|-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The total intrinsic value of stock options exercised during the six months ended December 31, 2007 and 2006, based upon the average market price during the period, was approximately $1.7 million and $0.2 million, respectively.

In September 2007, the Company accepted the tender of 81,230 shares of Common Stock at a fair market value of $26.93 per share, representing a cost of approximately $2.2 million, as payment for the exercise price of stock options exercised by the Company's chief executive officer as permitted under the 1995 Stock Option Plan.  The fair market value of the tendered shares was equal to the closing price of the Common Stock on the date that the Company was given notice of the tender of shares and the tender of shares was approved by the compensation committee of the Board.  The acquisition of these shares by the Company was accounted for under the treasury method.

Restricted Common Stock

On August 20, 2007, the Board granted 68,700 shares of performance-based restricted stock to 20 managerial employees and 80,300 shares of service-based restricted stock to 28 managerial employees.  The performance-based restricted stock will vest in full on a date that is two business days after the Company's financial results for fiscal 2010 are released to the public, but only if (i) the person receiving the grant is still employed by the Company and (ii) the Company achieves its specified cumulative earnings per diluted share target.  The service-based restricted stock will vest in equal thirds over a three-year period on dates that are two business days after the Company's financial results for each of the fiscal years ending June 30, 2008, 2009 and 2010 are publicly announced, but only if the person is still employed by the Company at the time of vesting.  The fair value of the restricted stock granted was based on the closing price of the Common Stock on the date of grant.  The restricted stock is recorded as additional paid-in capital in shareholders' equity as amortization occurs over the three-year vesting period.



A summary of the Company's restricted stock activity for the six months ended December 31, 2007, is presented below:

Employee Stock Purchase Plan



The Company currently has an Employee Stock Purchase Plan ("ESPP") under which employees in certain countries are permitted to deposit after tax funds from their wages for purposes of purchasing Common Stock at a 15% discount from the lower of the closing price of the Common Stock at either the start of the contribution period or the end of the contribution period.  The Company expenses the discount taken and the fair value of the "look-back" feature realized by employees upon purchases of Common Stock under the ESPP.  On November 30, 2007, 41,126 shares of Common Stock were purchased under this plan.  For the three and six months ended December 31, 2007, the Company recorded costs associated with the ESPP of approximately $0.1 million and $0.2 million, respectively.  For the three and six months ended December 31, 2006, the Company recorded costs associated with the ESPP of approximately $0.1 million and $0.2 million, respectively. The next purchase under the ESPP will be consummated on June 1, 2008.

Fair Value Measurements

In September 2006, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 157, Fair Value Measurements("SFAS 157"), which defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and expands disclosures about fair value measurements.  SFAS 157 will be effective for us on July 1, 2008.  The Company is currently evaluating the impact of SFAS 157 on its consolidated financial statements.



The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities

In February 2007, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 159, The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities ("SFAS 159").  SFAS 159 permits entities to choose to measure at fair value many financial instruments and certain other items that are not currently required to be measured at fair value. This option is only available for select financial instruments and is irrevocable once applied.  SFAS 159 will be effective for the Company beginning July 1, 2008.  The Company is currently evaluating the impact of SFAS 159 on its consolidated financial statements.

Pursuant to amendments to the Credit Facility entered into in August and November 2007, the credit facility was increased to $300 million until October 31, 2007, and to $275 million from November 1, 2007 until December 15, 2007.  After December 15, 2007, the Credit Facility provides for borrowings up to $250 million.  Under the terms of the Credit Facility the Company may, at any time, increase the size of the Credit Facility up to $300 million without entering into a formal amendment requiring the consent of all of the banks, subject to the Company's satisfaction of certain conditions.  In addition, from August 15, 2007 until October 31, 2007, the Credit Facility provided temporary additional borrowing availability of $25 million above the borrowing availability that was supported by the Company's level of eligible accounts receivable and inventory (as described below).  The Credit Facility expires in December 2012.



The Credit Facility is guaranteed by all of the Company's U.S. subsidiaries and is collateralized by a first priority lien on all of the Company's U.S., Canada and Puerto Rico accounts receivable and U.S. inventory. Except for the temporary additional borrowing availability described above, borrowings under the Credit Facility are limited to 85% of eligible accounts receivable and 85% of the appraised net liquidation value of the Company's inventory, as determined pursuant to the terms of the Credit Facility.  The Company's obligations under the Credit Facility rank senior to the Company's 7 3/4% Senior Subordinated Notes due 2014 (the "7 3/4% Senior Subordinated Notes").

The Credit Facility has only one financial maintenance covenant, which is a debt service coverage ratio that must be maintained at not less than 1.1 to 1 if average borrowing availability declines to less than $25 million ($35 million from December 1 through May 31).  No financial maintenance covenant was applicable as of December 31, 2007.  Under the terms of the Credit Facility, the Company may pay dividends or repurchase Common Stock if the Company maintains borrowing availability after the applicable payment of at least $25 million from June 1 to November 30, and at least $35 million from December 1 to May 31.  The Credit Facility restricts the Company from incurring additional non-trade indebtedness (other than refinancings and certain small amounts of indebtedness).



Borrowings under the credit portion of the Credit Facility bear interest at a floating rate based on the "Applicable Margin," which is determined by reference to a specific financial ratio.  At the Company's option, the Applicable Margin may be applied to either the London Interbank Offered Rate ("LIBOR") or the prime rate.  The reference ratio for determining the Applicable Margin is a debt service coverage ratio.  The Applicable Margin charged on LIBOR loans ranges from 1.00% to 1.75% and is 0% for prime rate loans.  As of December 31, 2007, the Applicable Margin was 1.25% for LIBOR loans and 0% for prime rate loans.  The commitment fee on the unused portion of the Credit Facility is 0.25%.

As of December 31, 2007, the Company had approximately $124million in outstanding borrowings and approximately $5 million in letters of credit outstanding under the Credit Facility, compared with approximately $98 million in outstanding borrowings under the Credit Facility at June 30, 2007.  As of December 31, 2007, the Company had approximately $246million of eligible receivables and inventories available as collateral under the Credit Facility and remaining borrowing availability of approximately $117 million.  For the six months ended December 31, 2007 and 2006, the weighted average annual interest rate on borrowings under the Company's Credit Facility was 6.8% and 7.2%, respectively.  The Company classifies the Credit Facility as short-term debt on its balance sheet because it expects to reduce outstanding borrowings over the next twelve months.

NOTE 8.    COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES



At December 31, 2007, the Company had contractual obligations to incur promotional and advertising expenses, which are either fixed commitments or based on net sales for licensed brands, and minimum royalty guarantees in an aggregate amount of $60.6 million through 2011, compared with$60.3 million through 2011 at June 30, 2007.



In October 2005, the Company received a demand from a licensee of certain of the Company's patents alleging the Company had breached the license agreement, indicating that it would not pay any further royalties and requesting that the Company return approximately $3 million in royalty payments already made.  The Company believes that it has not breached the license agreement and that the licensee is obligated to continue to make royalty payments.  The Company has filed a lawsuit against the licensee seeking recovery of its damages for breach of contract.  In April 2007, the licensee filed a counterclaim for breach of contract, negligence, unjust enrichment and other related counts, and also seeks

ELIZABETH ARDEN, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS



declaratory relief that the licensee is not obligated to make further royalty payments and is entitled to recover approximately $3 million in royalty payments already made plus interest.  The Company is not able to determine the ultimate outcome of this action or estimate the possible loss or range of loss relating to the licensee's claim, but believes the ultimate outcome will not have a material adverse effect on the Company's financial position, results of operations or cash flows.



The Company is a party to a number of other legal actions, proceedings and claims.  While any action, proceeding or claim contains an element of uncertainty and it is possible that the Company's cash flows and results of operations in a particular quarter or year could be materially affected by the impact of such actions, proceedings and claims, management of the Company believes that the outcome of such actions, proceedings or claims will not have a material adverse effect on the Company's ongoing business, financial position or results of operations.



In June 2006, the Company acquired certain assets of Riviera Concepts Inc. ("Riviera"), including inventory, accounts receivable and certain brand licenses (the "Riviera Acquisition").  In connection with the Riviera Acquisition, the Company entered into a contingent performance liability to Riviera in the amount of $8.6 million.  This contingent performance liability does not bear interest, is recorded in "other liabilities" on the Company's Consolidated Balance Sheet and is payable in annual installments beginning July 31, 2007 and ending on July 31, 2009, provided that certain net sales targets are achieved on the licensed brands acquired in the Riviera Acquisition over the three year period after the closing date.  If the targets for the first or second annual installments are not satisfied, such installments may still be payable, based on cumulative targets, in the subsequent year or years, as the case may be.  The target for the first installment due on July 31, 2007, was not achieved.  The contingent performance liability was recorded as a result of the negative goodwill resulting from this acquisition.



In August 2006, the Company acquired the fragrance business of Sovereign Sales, LLC ("Sovereign").  The assets acquired included inventory and certain intangible assets.  In addition, the Company assumed a portion of the lease payments on Sovereign's distribution facility and entered into a short-term services agreement.  The net purchase price consisted of (i) approximately $90.2 million in cash, consisting primarily of $87.7 million paid in cash at closing and approximately $2.5 million in cash paid in five installments after the closing; and (ii) $12.0 million in the form of contingent consideration, substantially all of which may be paid in two installments over two years from the date of closing if certain financial targets and other conditions are satisfied.  At June 30, 2007, the conditions for the first installment were satisfied, and the Company recognized a liability of $6.3 million in the consolidated balance sheet.  The first installment was paid in September 2007.  Based on financial results for the six months ended December 31, 2007, the conditions for the second installment have been satisfied.  Accordingly, the Company recognized a liability of $5.3 million in the consolidated balance sheet at December 31, 2007.  The payment of the second installment of contingent consideration is expected to be made in September 2008.



As of December 31, 2007, the Company had notional amounts of 96.2 million Euros and 53.5 million Britishpounds under foreign currency contracts that expire between January 31, 2008 and June 29, 2009 to reduce the exposure of its foreign subsidiary revenues to fluctuations in currency rates.  As of December 31, 2007, the Company had notional amounts of 13.3 million Canadian dollars under foreign currency contracts that expire between January 31, 2008 and June 29, 2009 to reduce the exposure of the Company's Canadian subsidiary's cost of sales to fluctuations in currency rates.  The Company has designated each qualifying foreign currency contract as a cash flow hedge.  The gains and losses of these contracts will only be recognized in earnings in the period in which the contracts expire.  The realized loss, net of taxes, recognized during the three and six months ended December 31, 2007, was approximately $2.4 million and $3.1 million, and the realized loss, net of taxes, recognized during the three and six months ended December 31, 2006, was approximately $0.4and$0.6million.  At December 31, 2007, the unrealized loss, net of taxes, associated with these contracts of approximately $8.1 million, is included in accumulated other comprehensive (loss) income.

When appropriate, the Company also enters into and settles foreign currency contracts for Euros, British pounds and Canadian dollars to reduce exposure of the Company's foreign subsidiaries' net balance sheets to fluctuations in foreign currency rates.  As of December 31, 2007, there were no such foreign currency contracts outstanding.  The realized loss, net of taxes, recognized from contracts in place during the three and six months ended December 31, 2007, was approximately $0.5 million and $1.5 million, respectively. The realized loss, net of taxes, recognized from contracts in place during the three and six months ended December 31, 2006 was approximately$0.7 million and $0.5 million, respectively.



NOTE 9.    REPURCHASE OF COMMON STOCK



On November 2, 2005, the Board authorized the Company to implement a stock repurchase program to repurchase up to $40.0 million of Common Stock through March 31, 2007.  On November 2, 2006, the Board authorized the repurchase of an additional $40.0 million of Common Stock under the terms of the Company's existing stock repurchase program and extended the term of the stock repurchase program from March 31, 2007 to November 30, 2008.  As of December 31, 2007, the Company had repurchased under the stock repurchase program 1,882,369 shares of Common Stock on the open market, at an average price of $18.22 per share, at a cost of approximately $34.3 million, including sales commissions.  For the six months ended December 31, 2007, the Company repurchased 20,200 shares of Common Stock at an average price of $20.52 per share on the open market at a cost of $0.4 million, including sales commissions. The acquisition of these shares by the Company was accounted for under the treasury method.



NOTE 10.    INCOME TAXES



In June 2006, the FASB issued Financial Interpretation No. 48, Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes - an Interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109 ("FIN 48"), which prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return.  FIN 48 requires that the Company recognize in its consolidated financial statements the impact of a tax position if it is more likely than not that such position will be sustained on audit based on its technical merits.  The provisions of FIN 48 also provide guidance on de-recognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, and disclosure.  Effective July 1, 2007, the Company adopted FIN 48.



Prior to July 1, 2007, the Company recognized income tax accruals with respect to uncertain tax positions based upon Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 5, Accounting for Contingencies ("SFAS 5").  Under SFAS 5, the Company recorded a liability associated with an uncertain tax position if the liability was both probable and estimable.



The adoption of FIN 48 resulted in no change to the opening balance of the Company's retained earnings.  The Company's balance of unrecognized tax benefits at July 1, 2007 was $5.3 million, and during the six months ended December 31, 2007, an additional $0.7 million of unrecognized tax benefits were recorded for positions taken during such period.  These unrecognized tax benefits could favorably affect the effective tax rate in a future period, if and to the extent recognized.  In addition, as a result of the adoption of FIN 48, $2.8 million relating to the Company's uncertain tax positions were reclassified from income taxes payable to deferred taxes.



The Company and its domestic subsidiaries file income tax returns with federal, state and local tax authorities within the United States.  The Company also files tax returns for its international affiliates in various foreign jurisdictions.  The statute of limitations for the Company's U.S. federal tax return years remains open for the fiscal year ended January 31, 2004 and subsequent fiscal years.  The Internal Revenue Service is currently examining the Company's federal income tax return for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2005.  The fiscal year ended January 31, 2003 and subsequent fiscal years remain subject to examination for various state tax jurisdictions.  In addition, the Company has subsidiaries in various foreign jurisdictions that have statutes of limitations generally ranging from one to ten years.  The fiscal year ended January 31, 2002 and subsequent fiscal years remain subject to examination for various foreign jurisdictions.

ELIZABETH ARDEN, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS



The Company recognizes interest accrued related to unrecognized tax benefits in interest expense and related penalties in the provision for income taxes in the Consolidated Statements of Operations, which is consistent with the recognition of these items in prior reporting periods.  The Company recorded no significant penalties or interest for the three and six months ended December 31, 2007, as a result of the Company's net operating loss carryforwards.



The Company does not expect changes in the amount of unrecognized tax benefits to have a significant impact on its results of operations over the next 12 months.



NOTE 11.    CONDENSED CONSOLIDATING FINANCIAL INFORMATION

ITEM 2.    MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS



This discussion should be read in conjunction with the Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements and related notes contained in this quarterly report and the Consolidated Financial Statements and related notes and the Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations appearing in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended June 30, 2007.  The results of operations for an interim period may not give a true indication of results for the year.  In the following discussion, all comparisons are with the corresponding items in the prior year period.



Overview



We are a global prestige beauty products company.  We sell fragrance, skin care and color cosmetic products in the United States primarily to department stores and mass retailers, as well as internationally in prestige department stores, perfumeries, boutiques and travel retail locations. We have established ourselves as a source of over 400 fragrance, skin care and cosmetic brands through brand ownership, brand licensing and distribution arrangements.  In addition to approximately 100 prestige brands that we own or license, we also distribute over 300 additional prestige fragrance brands manufactured by other beauty companies principally to mass retailers in the United States.  Our portfolio of owned and licensed fragrance brands includes the Elizabeth Arden fragrance brands: Red Door, Elizabeth Arden 5th Avenue, Elizabeth Arden Provocative Woman,Elizabeth Arden green tea,andElizabeth Arden Mediterranean; the Elizabeth Taylor fragrance brands:  White Diamondsand Elizabeth Taylor's Passion; the Britney Spears fragrance brands:curious Britney Spears,fantasy Britney Spears and Britney Spears believe; the Mariah Carey fragrance M by Mariah Carey; the Hilary Duff fragrance with Love...Hilary Duff;the Danielle Steel fragrance Danielle by Danielle Steel;the fragrance brands White Shoulders, Giorgio and Giorgio Red;the men's fragrances Daytona 500, HUMMER®Fragrance for Men, and PS Fine Cologne for Men; and the designer fragrance brands of Alfred Sung, Badgley Mischka, Bob Mackie, GANT, Lulu Guinness, Nanette Lepore, Geoffrey Beeneand Halston.  Our skin care brands includeCeramide, Intervene, Eight Hour Creamand PREVAGE®, and our cosmetic products include the Elizabeth Arden brand lipstick, foundation and color cosmetic products.



Our business strategy to increase net sales, operating margins and earnings is based on (a) growing the sales of our existing brand portfolio through new product launches and increased advertising and marketing activities, (b) acquiring control of additional prestige brands through licensing opportunities and acquisitions, (c) expanding the offering of prestige fragrance products that we distribute on behalf of other beauty companies to mass retail customers, (d) implementing initiatives to improve our cost structure and working capital efficiencies, and (e) expanding our presence in established international markets such as Europe and Travel Retail, and developing our presence in emerging markets.



We manage our business by evaluating net sales, EBITDA and working capital utilization (including monitoring our levels of inventory, accounts receivable and operating cash flow). We encounter a variety of challenges that may affect our business and should be considered as described in Item 1A "Risk Factors" of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended June 30, 2007 and in the section of this quarterly report captioned "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations -- Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Information and Factors That May Affect Future Results."

In fiscal 2008, our key focus is on improving our operating margins, cash flow from operations and return on invested capital.  For the six months ended December 31, 2007, our operating margin improved by approximately 150 basis points compared to the prior year period.  We are implementing a variety of initiatives relating to our extended supply chain, logistics functions and enterprise information systems that we believe will provide improved operating and financial performance.



Our financial results for the remainder of the fiscal year ending June 30, 2008, will also depend on our ability to successfully launch new products, successfully introduce our fragrance brands to additional retailers, and continue to grow our international sales, and on the impact that a slowing U.S. economy may have on consumer demand for our products.  New product introductions require additional upfront spending for marketing, development and promotional expenses.  To the extent one or more of our new product introductions or our efforts to expand operating margins or grow international sales are not as successful as we had planned, or if a slowing U.S. economy negatively affects consumer demand for our products, we could experience a reduction of our profitability and cash flow.

Seasonality



Our operations have historically been seasonal, with higher sales generally occurring during the first half of the fiscal year (July through December) as a result of increased demand by retailers in anticipation of, and during, the holiday season.  During the fiscal year ended June 30, 2007, approximately 59% of our net sales were made during those months.  Due to the size and timing of certain orders from our customers and new product launches, sales, results of operations, working capital requirements and cash flows can vary between quarters of the same and different years.  As a result, we expect to experience variability in net sales, operating margin, net income, working capital requirements and cash flows on a quarterly basis.  Increased sales of skin care and cosmetic products relative to fragrances may reduce the seasonality of our business.



We experience seasonality in our working capital, with peak inventory levels from July to October and peak receivable balances from September to December.  Our working capital borrowings are also seasonal and are normally highest in the months of September, October and November.  Cash is normally generated during the months of December, January and February of each year, as customer payments on holiday season orders are received.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates



As disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2007, the discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations are based upon our consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.  The preparation of these financial statements requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses reported in those financial statements.  These judgments can be subjective and complex, and consequently actual results could differ from those estimates and assumptions.  Our most critical accounting policies relate to revenue recognition, provisions for inventory obsolescence, allowances for sales returns, markdowns and doubtful accounts, long-lived assets, income taxes, hedging contracts and share-based compensation.  Since June 30, 2007, other than the adoption of Financial Interpretation No. 48, Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes - an Interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109 (FIN 48), as described below, there have been no significant changes to the assumptions and estimates related to those critical accounting policies.



Income Taxes.  In June 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued FIN 48, which prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return.  FIN 48 requires that we recognize in our consolidated financial statements, the impact of a tax position if it is more likely than not that such position will be sustained on audit based on its technical merits.  The provisions of FIN 48 also provide guidance on de-recognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, and disclosure.  Effective July 1, 2007, we adopted FIN 48.  The adoption of FIN 48 resulted in no change to the opening balance of our retained earnings.



Prior to July 1, 2007, we recognized income tax accruals with respect to uncertain tax positions based upon Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 5, Accounting for Contingencies (SFAS 5).  Under SFAS 5, we recorded a liability associated with an uncertain tax position if the liability was both probable and estimable.

|--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



Three Months Ended December 31, 2007 Compared to Three Months Ended December 31, 2006



Net Sales.    Net sales increased 2.8%, or approximately $11.7 million, for the three months ended December 31, 2007, compared to the three months ended December 31, 2006. The increase is due to approximately $11 million of higher sales of Elizabeth Arden branded skin care products primarily in international markets. Incremental fragrance sales from the launch of M by Mariah Careyand sales of Giorgio brands resulting from the new license agreement signed in December 2006 were mostly offset by lower sales of distributed fragrance brands to U.S. mass customers. Excluding the impact of foreign currency translation, net sales increased 0.5%.



Gross Profit.    Gross profit increased by 13.2% for the three months ended December 31, 2007, compared to the three months ended December 31, 2006, primarily due to the higher sales and gross margin.  Gross margin increased to 42.3% for the three months ended December 31, 2007, compared to 38.5% for the three months ended December 31, 2006 due to a higher proportion of our net sales coming from owned and licensed brands, which traditionally operate at higher gross margins than our distributed fragrance brands.



SG&A.    Selling, general and administrative expenses increased 10.2%, or approximately $11.0 million, for the three months ended December 31, 2007, compared to the three months ended December 31, 2006.  The increase was principally due to higher advertising and royalty costs of $8.7 million mainly related to new product launches, and higher marketing and sales overhead costs of $2.5 million mainly related to investments in our European operations, e-commerce activities and our Fifth Avenue store in New York City.  These amounts include the unfavorable effect of foreign currency translation of approximately $3.1 million.  We also incurred costs related to our extended supply chain and logistics functions initiatives, which offset the prior year period transition costs related to the Rivera and Sovereign acquisitions.



Depreciation and Amortization.    Depreciation and amortization decreased by 2.2% for the three months ended December 31, 2007, compared to the three months ended December 31, 2006.  The decrease is primarily a result of reduced amortization related to certain intangible assets that were fully amortized during fiscal 2007 partially offset by higher depreciation costs due to the higher level of capital additions during the fiscal years ended June 30, 2007 and 2006.

---



Interest Expense.    Interest expense, net of interest income decreased by 3.1% for the three months ended December 31, 2007, compared to the three months ended December 31, 2006.  The decrease is primarily a result of lower interest rates under our credit facility.



Provision for Income Taxes.    A provision for income taxes of approximately $11.2 million was recorded for the three months ended December 31, 2007, compared to approximately $8.9 million for the three months ended December 31, 2006, primarily due to higher income from operations.  The effective tax rate for the three months ended December 31, 2007 and 2006 was 24.9% and 25.6%, respectively.

Net Income.    Net income increased by 30.7% to approximately $33.8 million for the three months ended December 31, 2007 compared to approximately $25.9 million for the three months ended December 31, 2006.  The increase in net income was driven by higher net sales and gross profit, partially offset by higher selling, general and administrative expenses.



EBITDA.    EBITDA (net income plus the provision for income taxes (or net loss less the benefit from income taxes), plus interest expense, plus depreciation and amortization expense) increased by $9.9 million to $59.5 million for the three months ended December 31, 2007, compared to $49.6 million for the three months ended December 31, 2006. The increase in EBITDA was driven by higher net sales and gross profit, partially offset by higher selling, general and administrative expenses.



EBITDA should not be considered as an alternative to operating income (loss) or net income (loss) (as determined in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles) as a measure of our operating performance or to net cash provided by operating, investing or financing activities (as determined in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles) or as a measure of our ability to meet cash needs.  We believe that EBITDA is a measure commonly reported and widely used by investors and other interested parties as a measure of a company's operating performance and debt servicing ability because it assists in comparing performance on a consistent basis without regard to capital structure (particularly when acquisitions are involved), depreciation and amortization, or non-operating factors such as historical cost.  Accordingly, as a result of our capital structure, we believe EBITDA is a relevant measure.  This information has been disclosed here to permit a more complete comparative analysis of our operating performance relative to other companies and of our debt servicing ability.  EBITDA may not, however, be comparable in all instances to other similar types of measures.

In addition, EBITDA has limitations as an analytical tool, including the fact that:

| | it does not reflect any cash income taxes that we may be required to pay; and                                                                                                                                                      
|  |                                                                                                                                                                                                                                    
| | although depreciation and amortization are non-cash charges, the assets being depreciated and amortized will often have to be replaced in the future and these measures do not reflect any cash requirements for such replacements.

Six Months Ended December 31, 2007 Compared to Six Months Ended December 31, 2006



Net Sales.    Net sales increased 4.3%, or approximately $28.7 million, for the six months ended December 31, 2007, compared to the six months ended December 31, 2006. Fragrance sales increased approximately $18 million due to the launch of M by Mariah Careyand sales of the Giorgio brands resulting from the new license agreement signed in December 2006, partially offset by lower sales of distributed fragrance brands to U.S. mass customers. Sales of Elizabeth Arden branded skin care products increased approximately $12 million, primarily in international markets. Excluding the impact of foreign currency translation, net sales increased 1.9%.



Gross Profit.    Gross profit increased by 10.9% for the six months ended December 31, 2007, compared to the six months ended December 31, 2006, primarily due to the higher sales and gross margin.  Gross margin was 41.1% for the six months ended December 31, 2007, compared to 38.6% for the six months ended December 31, 2006 due to a higher proportion of our net sales coming from owned and licensed brands, which traditionally operate at higher gross margins than our distributed fragrance brands.



SG&A.    Selling, general and administrative expenses increased 8.3%, or approximately $16.2 million, for the six months ended December 31, 2007, compared to the six months ended December 31, 2006.  The increase was principally due to higher advertising and royalty costs of $11.9 million mainly related to new product launches and higher marketing and sales overhead costs of $4.6 million mainly related to investments in our European operations, e-commerce activities and our Fifth Avenue store in New York City.  These amounts include the unfavorable effect of foreign currency translation of approximately $4.7 million.  We also incurred costs related to our extended supply chain and logistics functions initiatives, which offset the prior year period transition costs related to the Rivera and Sovereign acquisitions.



Depreciation and Amortization.    Depreciation and amortization decreased by 4.2% for the six months ended December 31, 2007, compared to the six months ended December 31, 2006.  The decrease is primarily a result of reduced amortization related to certain intangible assets that were fully amortized during fiscal 2007 mostly offset by higher depreciation costs due to the higher level of capital additions during the fiscal years ended June 30, 2007 and 2006.



Provision for Income Taxes.    A provision for income taxes of approximately $11.3 million was recorded for the six months ended December 31, 2007, compared to approximately $8.4 million for the six months ended December 31, 2006, primarily due to higher income from operations.  The effective tax rate for the six months ended December 31, 2007 and 2006 was 24.9% and 25.6%, respectively.



Net Income.    Net income increased by 39.1% to approximately $34.1 million for the six months ended December 31, 2007, as compared to approximately $24.5 million for the six months ended December 31, 2006.  The increase in net income was driven by higher net sales and gross profit, partially offset by higher selling, general and administrative expenses.



EBITDA.    EBITDA (net income plus the provision for income taxes (or net loss less the benefit from income taxes), plus interest expense, plus depreciation and amortization expense) increased by $11.8 million to $73.4 million for the six months ended December 31, 2007, compared to $61.6 million for the six months ended December 31, 2006. The increase in EBITDA was driven by higher net sales and gross profit, partially offset by higher selling, general and administrative expenses.



The following is a reconciliation of net income, as determined in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, to EBITDA:

Cash Flows.     For the six months ended December 31, 2007, net cash used in operating activities was approximately $15.8 million, as compared to net cash provided by operating activities of approximately $40.5 million for the six months ended December 31, 2006.  This increase in cash used for operating activities is primarily due to the prior year acquisition of the fragrance business of Sovereign Sales, LLC in which we acquired $68 million of inventory and which was reflected as an investing activity in our consolidated statement of cash flows, as required by generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP).  If the inventory had been acquired in the ordinary course of our business, it would have resulted in a net use of cash from operating activities of $27.5 million ($40.5 million of cash provided by operating activities in the prior period less $68 million of inventory acquired and reported as an investing activity).  The Company believes this additional information provides investors a more comparable measure to evaluate our operating cash flow performance for the six months ended December 31, 2007 as compared to the prior year period.



Also contributing to the increase in cash used during the current period were higher payments of approximately $57.2 million due in part to investments in new supplier relationships coming from the Sovereign acquisition and higher incentive bonus payments made in August 2007 related to fiscal 2007 performance.  Cash generated in the current period from the prior year build up of accounts receivable related to the Sovereign acquisition was offset by an increase in accounts receivable from non-U.S. customers which generally have longer collection cycles.



For the six months ended December 31, 2007, net cash used in investing activities was approximately $18.8 million, as compared to approximately $101.7 million for the six months ended December 31, 2006.  The decrease in net cash used in investing activities is primarily a result of approximately $91.4 million in cash paid in connection with the Sovereign acquisition in August 2006.  Cash used in investing activities for the six months ended December 31, 2007, also includes $6.3 million paid to settle the first installment of contingent consideration associated with the Sovereign acquisition, and $12.4 million related to capital expenditures, primarily for computer hardware and software, tools and molds, in-store counters, and leasehold improvements.



Net cash provided by financing activities decreased by approximately $39.7 million or 58.0% for the six months ended December 31, 2007, as compared to the six months ended December 31, 2006.  The decrease was primarily due to additional borrowings under our credit facility during the six months ended December 31, 2006, used to fund a portion of the purchase price for the Sovereign acquisition.



Interest paid during the six months ended December 31, 2007, included $8.7 million of interest payments on the  7-3/4% senior subordinated notes due 2014 and $6.7 million of interest paid on the borrowings under our credit facility.  Interest paid during the six months ended December 31, 2006 included $8.7million of interest payments on the 7 3/4% senior subordinated notes and $6.2 million paid on the borrowings under our credit facility.



Future Liquidity and Capital Needs.    Our principal future uses of funds are for working capital requirements, including brand development and marketing expenses, new product launches, additional brand acquisitions or product distribution arrangements, capital expenditures and debt service.  In addition, we may use funds to repurchase our common stock and senior subordinated notes.  We have historically financed, and we expect to continue to finance, our needs primarily through internally generated funds, our credit facility and external financing.  We collect cash from our customers based on our sales to them and their respective payment terms.



We have a revolving credit facility with a syndicate of banks, for which JPMorgan Chase Bank is the administrative agent, which generally provides for borrowings on a revolving basis of up to $250 million with a $25 million sub-limit for letters of credit.  Pursuant to amendments to the credit facility entered into in August and November 2007, the credit facility was increased to $300 million until October 31, 2007, and to $275 million from November 1, 2007 until December 15, 2007.  After December 15, 2007, the credit facility provides for borrowings up to $250 million.

---



Under the terms of the credit facility we may, at any time, increase the size of the credit facility up to $300 million without entering into a formal amendment requiring the consent of all of the banks, subject to our satisfaction of certain conditions.  In addition, from August 15, 2007 until October 31, 2007, we had temporary additional borrowing availability of $25 million above the borrowing availability that was supported by our level of eligible accounts receivable and inventory (as described below).  The credit facility expires in December 2012.



The credit facility is guaranteed by all of our U.S. subsidiaries and is collateralized by a first priority lien on all of our U.S., Canada and Puerto Rico accounts receivable and U.S. inventory. Except for the temporary additional borrowing availability described above, borrowings under the credit facility are limited to 85% of eligible accounts receivable and 85% of the appraised net liquidation value of our inventory, as determined pursuant to the terms of the credit facility.  Our obligations under the credit facility rank senior to our 7 3/4% senior subordinated notes due 2014.



The credit facility has only one financial maintenance covenant, which is a debt service coverage ratio that must be maintained at not less than 1.1 to 1 if average borrowing availability declines to less than $25 million ($35 million from December 1 through May 31).  No financial maintenance covenant was applicable as of December 31, 2007.  Under the terms of the credit facility, we may pay dividends or repurchase common stock if we maintain borrowing availability after the applicable payment of at least $25 million from June 1 to November 30, and at least $35 million from December 1 to May 31.  The credit facility restricts us from incurring additional non-trade indebtedness (other than refinancings and certain small amounts of indebtedness).



Borrowings under the credit portion of the credit facility bear interest at a floating rate based on the "Applicable Margin," which is determined by reference to a specific financial ratio.  At our option, the Applicable Margin may be applied to either the London Interbank Offered Rate (LIBOR) or the prime rate.  The reference ratio for determining the Applicable Margin is a debt service coverage ratio.  The Applicable Margin charged on LIBOR loans ranges from 1.00% to 1.75% and is 0% for prime rate loans.  As of December 31, 2007, the Applicable Margin was 1.25% for LIBOR loans and 0% for prime rate loans.  The commitment fee on the unused portion of the credit facility is 0.25%.  For the six months ended December 31, 2007 and 2006, the weighted average annual interest rate on borrowings under the Credit Facility was 6.8% and 7.2%, respectively.



As of December 31, 2007, we had approximately $124million in outstanding borrowings and approximately $5 million in letters of credit outstanding under the credit facility, approximately $246 million of eligible receivables and inventories available as collateral under the credit facility, and remaining borrowing availability of approximately $117 million.



As of December 31, 2007, we had outstanding $225 million aggregate principal amount of 7 3/4% senior subordinated notes.  The 7 3/4% senior subordinated notes are guaranteed by our U.S. subsidiaries.  See Note 11 to Notes to Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements.  The indentures pursuant to which the 7 3/4% senior subordinated notes were issued provide that such notes will be our senior subordinated obligations.  The 7 3/4% senior subordinated notes rank junior to all of our existing and future senior indebtedness, including indebtedness under the credit facility, and pari passu in right of payment to all of our senior subordinated indebtedness.  Interest on the 7 3/4% senior subordinated notes is payable semi-annually on February 15 and August 15 of each year.  The indentures generally permit us (subject to the satisfaction of a fixed charge coverage ratio and, in certain cases, also a net income test) to incur additional indebtedness, pay dividends, purchase or redeem our common stock or redeem subordinated indebtedness.  The indentures generally limit our ability to create liens, merge or transfer or sell assets.  The indentures also provide that the holders of the 7 3/4% senior subordinated notes have the option to require us to repurchase their notes in the event of a change of control involving us (as defined in the indentures).



We believe that existing cash and cash equivalents, internally generated funds and borrowings under our credit facility will be sufficient to cover debt service, working capital requirements and capital expenditures for the next twelve months, other than additional working capital requirements that may result from further expansion of our operations through acquisitions of additional brands, new product launches or distribution arrangements.



Repurchases of Common Stock.    On November 2, 2005, our board of directors authorized us to implement a stock repurchase program to repurchase up to $40.0 million of our common stock through March 31, 2007.  On November 2, 2006, our board of directors authorized the repurchase of an additional $40.0 million of our common stock under the terms of our existing stock repurchase program and extended the term of the stock repurchase program from March 31,

2007 to November 30, 2008.  As of December 31, 2007, we had repurchased under the stock repurchase program 1,882,369 shares of common stock on the open market, at an average price of $18.22 per share, at a cost of approximately $34.3 million, including sales commissions.  For the six months ended December 31, 2007, we repurchased 20,200 shares of Common Stock at an average price of $20.52 per share on the open market at a cost of $0.4 million, including sales commissions.  Our acquisition of these shares was accounted for under the treasury method.



Contractual Obligations.    At December 31, 2007, we had contractual obligations to incur promotional and advertising expenses, which are either fixed commitments or based on net sales for licensed brands, and minimum royalty guarantees in an aggregate amount of $60.6 million through 2011, compared with $60.3 million through 2011 at June 30, 2007.



New Accounting Standards



Business Combinations



In December 2007, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 141 (revised 2007), Business Combinations (SFAS 141R).  SFAS 141R significantly changes the accounting for business combinations in a number of areas including the treatment of contingent consideration, pre-acquisition contingencies, transaction costs, restructuring costs and income taxes.  SFAS 141R will be effective for us on July 1, 2009.  We are currently evaluating the impact of SFAS 141R on our consolidated financial statements.



Fair Value Measurements



In September 2006, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 157, Fair Value Measurements(SFAS 157), which defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and expands disclosures about fair value measurements.  SFAS 157 will be effective for us on July 1, 2008. We are currently evaluating the impact of SFAS 157 on our consolidated financial statements.



The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities

In February 2007, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 159, The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities (SFAS 159).  SFAS 159 permits entities to choose to measure at fair value many financial instruments and certain other items that are not currently required to be measured at fair value.  This option is only available for select financial instruments and is irrevocable once applied.  SFAS 159 will be effective for us beginning July 1, 2008.  We are currently evaluating the impact of SFAS 159 on our consolidated financial statements.

Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Information and Factors That May Affect Future Results



The Securities and Exchange Commission encourages companies to disclose forward-looking information so that investors can better understand a company's future prospects and make informed investment decisions. This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and other written and oral statements that we make from time to time contain such forward-looking statements that set out anticipated results based on management's plans and assumptions regarding future events or performance. We have tried, wherever possible, to identify such statements by using words such as "anticipate," "estimate," "expect," "project," "intend," "plan," "believe," "will" and similar expressions in connection with any discussion of future operating or financial performance.  In particular, these include statements relating to future actions, prospective products, future performance or results of current and anticipated products, sales efforts, expenses, interest rates, foreign exchange rates, the outcome of contingencies, such as legal proceedings, and financial results. A list of factors that could cause our actual results of operations and financial condition to differ materially is set forth below, and these factors are discussed in greater detail under Item 1A -- "Risk Factors" of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2007:

New factors emerge from time to time, and it is not possible for us to predict all of such factors.  Further, we cannot assess the impact of each such factor on our results of operations or the extent to which any factor, or combination of factors, may cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in any forward-looking statements.

ITEM 3.    QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

Interest Rate Risk

As of December 31, 2007, we had approximately $124 million in borrowings outstanding under our revolving credit facility.  Borrowings under our revolving credit facility are seasonal, with peak borrowings typically in the months of September, October and November.  Borrowings under the credit facility are subject to variable rates and, accordingly, our earnings and cash flow will be affected by changes in interest rates.  Based upon our average borrowings under our revolving credit facility during the six months ended December 31, 2007, and assuming there had been a two percentage point change in the average interest rate for these borrowings, it is estimated that our interest expense for the three and six months ended December 31, 2007 would have increased or decreased by approximately $1.1 million and $1.9 million, respectively.  See Note 6 to the Notes to Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements.

Foreign Currency Risk



We sell our products in approximately 90 countries around the world.  During the three and six months ended December 31, 2007, we derived approximately 36.5% and 37.1%, respectively, of our net sales from our international operations. We conduct our international operations in a variety of different countries and derive our sales in various currencies including the Euro, British pound, Swiss franc, Canadian dollar and Australian dollar, as well as the U.S. dollar. Most of our skin care and cosmetic products are produced in a third-party manufacturing facility located in Roanoke, Virginia. Our operations may be subject to volatility because of currency changes, inflation changes and changes in political and economic conditions in the countries in which we operate.  With respect to international operations, our sales, cost of goods sold and expenses are typically denominated in a combination of local currency and the U.S. dollar.  Our results of operations are reported in U.S. dollars. Fluctuations in currency rates can affect our reported sales, margins, operating costs and the anticipated settlement of our foreign denominated receivables and payables. A weakening of the foreign currencies in which we generate sales relative to the currencies in which our costs are denominated, which is primarily the U.S. dollar, may decrease our reported cash flow and operating profits.  Our competitors may or may not be subject to the same fluctuations in currency rates, and our competitive position could be affected by these changes. The cumulative effect of translating balance sheet accounts from the functional currency into the U.S. dollar at current exchange rates is included in "Accumulated other comprehensive (loss) income" in our consolidated balance sheets.



As of December 31, 2007, we had notional amounts of 96.2 million Euros and 53.5 million British pounds under foreign currency contracts that expire between January 31, 2008 and June 29, 2009 to reduce the exposure of our foreign subsidiary revenues to fluctuations in currency rates.  As of December 31, 2007, we had notional amounts of 13.3 million Canadian dollars under foreign currency contracts that expire between January 31, 2008 and June 29, 2009 to reduce the exposure of our Canadian subsidiary's cost of sales to fluctuations in currency rates.  We have designated each qualifying foreign currency contract as a cash flow hedge.  The gains and losses of these contracts will only be recognized in earnings in the period in which the contracts expire.  The realized loss, net of taxes, recognized during the three and six months ended December 31, 2007, was approximately $2.4 million and $3.1 million.  At December 31, 2007, the unrealized loss, net of taxes associated with these contracts of approximately $8.1 million, is included in accumulated other comprehensive (loss) income.



When appropriate, we also enter into and settle foreign currency contracts for Euros, British pounds and Canadian dollars to reduce the exposure of our foreign subsidiaries' net balance sheets to fluctuations in foreign currency rates.  As of December 31, 2007, there were no such foreign currency contracts outstanding.  The realized loss, net of taxes, recognized during the three and six months ended December 31, 2007 was approximately $0.5 million and $1.5 million, respectively.



We do not utilize foreign exchange contracts for trading or speculative purposes.  There can be no assurance that our hedging operations or other exchange rate practices, if any, will eliminate or substantially reduce risks associated with fluctuating exchange rates.
