                AMCON Distributing Company and Subsidiaries
         Notes to Condensed Consolidated Unaudited Financial Statements
                           March 31, 2006 and 2005
----------------------------------------------------------------------------

1.  SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION:

AMCON Distributing Company and Subsidiaries ("AMCON" and "the Company") is
primarily engaged in the wholesale distribution of consumer products in the
Great Plains and Rocky Mountain regions.  In addition, the Company operates
thirteen retail health food stores in Florida and the Midwest and a non-
alcoholic beverage business that includes a natural artesian water bottling
operation in the State of Hawaii.

AMCON's wholesale distribution business ("ADC") includes five distribution
centers that sell approximately 13,000 different consumer products, including
cigarettes and tobacco products, candy and other confectionery, beverages,
groceries, paper products, health and beauty care products, frozen and
chilled products and institutional food service products.  The Company
distributes products primarily to retailers such as convenience stores,
discount and general merchandise stores, grocery stores and supermarkets,
drug stores and gas stations.  In addition, the Company services
institutional customers, including restaurants and bars, schools, sports
complexes and vendors, as well as other wholesalers.

AMCON also operates six retail health food stores in Florida under the name
Chamberlin's Market & Cafe (Chamberlin's) and seven in the Midwest under the
name Akin's Natural Foods Market (Akin's).  These stores carry natural
supplements, groceries, health and beauty care products and other food items.

In addition, AMCON operates a non-alcoholic beverage business which, at March
31, 2006, consisted of Hawaiian Natural Water Company, Inc. ("HNWC").
HNWC bottles natural artesian water from an exclusive source located on the
Big Island of Hawaii and bottles purified drinking water on the island of
Oahu.  HNWC currently markets its products primarily in the State of Hawaii,
but has expanded marketing to the mainland United States and certain
international markets.

In March 2006, Trinity Springs, Inc. (TSI), which was formerly part of the
Company's beverage segment, ceased on-going operations because of recurring
losses as discussed further in Note 2.  TSI bottled and distributed
geothermal water, natural mineral supplements and other premium beverages.
As a result, the balance sheets as of March 31, 2006 and September 30, 2005,
and the statements of operations for the three and six month fiscal periods
ended March 31, 2006 and March 31, 2005 and cash flows for the six month
fiscal periods ended March 31, 2006 and March 31, 2005 have been prepared
reflecting TSI in discontinued operations in accordance with Statement of
Financial Standards ("SFAS") No. 144 "Accounting for the Impairment or
Disposal of Long-Lived Assets."



                                   6






As previously disclosed in the Company's Fiscal 2005 Annual Report on
Form 10-K and described in Note 13 to the Condensed Consolidated Unaudited
Financial Statements, the financial statements for the three and six month
fiscal periods ended March 31, 2005, included within this quarterly report,
have been restated.  The restatement reflects the impact of errors made in
certain interest expense allocations to The Beverage Group, Inc. ("TBG"),
which ceased operations in March 2005, and inventory production accounting
errors made at Hawaiian Natural Water Company, Inc., both of which occurred
during fiscal 2005.

Results for the interim period are not necessarily indicative of results to
be expected for the entire year.

The accompanying condensed consolidated unaudited financial statements
include the accounts of AMCON Distributing Company and its subsidiaries.
As a result of its 85% ownership in TSI, the Company has included its
operating results in the accompanying consolidated financial statements and
has presented the 15% non-owned interest in this subsidiary as a minority
interest.  Further, the Company has suspended the allocation of TSI's losses
to minority shareholders as their equity basis has been reduced to zero and
the minority shareholders have not guaranteed TSI's debt or committed
additional capital to TSI.  As described further in Note 12, the Company is
currently involved in litigation regarding the ownership of TSI's assets.
Based on independent legal counsel's opinion, the Company continues to
account for TSI as a consolidated subsidiary of AMCON.

All significant intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated
in consolidation.  Certain information and footnote disclosures normally
included in our annual financial statements prepared in accordance with
generally accepted accounting principles have been condensed or omitted.
In the opinion of management, the accompanying condensed consolidated
unaudited financial statements contain all adjustments necessary to fairly
present the financial information included therein, such adjustments
consisting of normal recurring items.  The Company believes that although the
disclosures are adequate to prevent the information presented from being
misleading, these condensed consolidated unaudited financial statements
should be read in conjunction with the Company's annual audited consolidated
financial statements for the year ended September 30, 2005, as filed with the
Securities and Exchange Commission on Form 10-K ("2005 Annual Report").









                                   7










For convenience, the second fiscal quarters of 2006 and 2005 have been
referred to throughout this quarterly report as March 2006 and March 2005,
respectively.  During the first quarter of fiscal 2005, the Company changed
its reporting period from a 52-53 week year ending on the last Friday in
September to a calendar month reporting period ending on September 30.
As a result of this change, the first six months of fiscal 2005 include
one additional week of operations compared to the first six months of fiscal
2006.

Stock-based Compensation
------------------------
Prior to its expiration in June 2004, AMCON maintained a stock-based
compensation plan under which the Compensation Committee of the Board of
Directors could grant incentive stock options and non-qualified stock
options.

On October 1, 2005, the Company adopted SFAS No. 123 (revised 2004) (SFAS
123R), Share Based Payment.  The Company chose to apply the modified
prospective transition method as permitted by SFAS 123R and therefore has not
restated prior periods.  Under the transition method, compensation cost
associated with employee stock options has been recognized for the three and
six month fiscal periods ended March 31, 2006 totaling $15,000 and $30,000,
respectively.  This expense represents the amortization of unvested stock
option awards granted prior to September 30, 2005 and has been reflected in
the consolidated statement of operations under "selling, general and
administrative expenses." Prior to the adoption of SFAS 123R, the Company
accounted for these plans under APB Opinion 25, Accounting for Stock Issued
to Employees, and related Interpretations.  Under APB Opinion 25, no
compensation cost associated with stock options was reflected in net loss
available to common shareholders, as all options granted under these plans
had an exercise price equal to the market value of the underlying common
stock on the date of grant.

The following table illustrates the effect on net loss available to common
shareholders and loss per share for the three and six month fiscal periods
ended March 2005, had the Company applied the fair value recognition
provisions of FASB Statement No. 123, Accounting for Stock-Based
Compensation, to stock-based employee compensation.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements
-----------------------------------------
On July 13, 2006, the FASB issued Interpretation 48 ("FIN 48"), Accounting
for Uncertainty in Income Taxes an Interpretation of FASB Statement No 109.
The Interpretation provides a consistent recognition threshold and
measurement attribute, as well as clear criteria for subsequently
recognizing, derecognizing and measuring uncertain tax positions for
financial statement purposes. The Interpretation also requires expanded
disclosure with respect to the uncertainty in income taxes. FIN 48 will be
effective at the beginning of the Company's 2007 fiscal year. The Company is
currently assessing the effect of this pronouncement on the financial
statements.


2.  DISPOSITIONS

The Company currently has two subsidiaries (TSI and TBG) classified as
discontinued operations in the accompanying condensed consolidated unaudited
financial statements in accordance with SFAS No. 144 "Accounting for the
Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets."

Trinity Springs, Inc.
---------------------
In March 2006, the Company's subsidiary, TSI, discontinued operations due to
recurring losses and a lack of capital resources to sustain operations.
TSI operated a water bottling facility in Idaho and was a component of the
Company's beverage segment.

Management is currently working to sell TSI's remaining assets to unrelated
companies, distributors or liquidators.  During the second fiscal quarter of
2006, the Company recorded charges, included in loss from discontinued
operations before taxes, of $0.2 million related to the closure of TSI's
operations.  These charges were incurred primarily to adjust inventory to
its net realizable value.


                                   9











The Beverage Group, Inc.
-------------------------
Effective March 31, 2005, the Company's subsidiary, TBG which represented the
beverage marketing and distribution component of the beverage segment, ceased
on-going operations due to recurring losses since its December 2002
inception.  All TBG employees were terminated effective March 31, 2005 and
the Company outsourced various responsibilities in order to maximize the
value of the assets by collecting receivables and evaluating its payables.
In March 2005, a charge included in loss from discontinued operations
totaling $0.8 million was incurred to adjust the allowance for bad debts and
inventory reserve to their net realizable values and to write off fixed
assets.  In addition, in accordance with SFAS No. 146 "Accounting for Costs
Associated with Exit or Disposal Activities" management accrued one-time
termination benefits and rent expenses associated with the remaining lease
commitment on the office lease totaling less than $0.1 million.  This lease
will provide no future economic benefit to the Company.

In accordance with SFAS No. 144 "Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of
Long-Lived Assets", the results of operations for TBG and TSI have been
reflected in "discontinued operations" in the condensed consolidated
unaudited financial statements included in this Quarterly Report as they
represent a component of an entity in which the operations and cash flows
have (or will be) eliminated from the ongoing operations and for which the
Company will not have any significant continuing involvement.

Sales from discontinued operations, which have been excluded from income
(loss) from continuing operations in the accompanying condensed consolidated
unaudited statements of operations for the three and six month periods ended
March 31, 2006 and March 31, 2005, are presented as follows.  Discontinued
operations include our TBG and TSI subsidiaries.  The effects of the
discontinued operations, on net loss available to common shareholders and per
share data are reflected within the accompanying condensed consolidated
unaudited statements of operations.

Included in the disposal groups above are debt obligations payable to related
parties from TSI as follows:

   -  TSI owes a director of the Company $1.0 million on a revolving credit
      facility extended to TSI in December 2004 with an interest rate of 8%
      per annum.  The director is secured by a second mortgage on TSI's real
      property on an equal basis with the Company's existing second mortgage
      on TSI's real property.  The revolving credit line matured on December
      14, 2005 at which time principal and accrued interest were due.

   -  TSI owes $0.5 million as of June 2005 for a loan from a related
      party that is wholly-owned by three of the Company's directors
      (including the Chairman and the President) and another significant
      shareholder.  The note bears interest at 7% per annum.  The note was
      originally due June 15, 2005, and was subsequently extended to
      December 2005.

   -  TSI obtained unsecured, subordinated loans totaling $0.5 million in
      August 2005, from unaffiliated businesses of two the Company's
      directors, including a company of which the Chairman of the Board is
      a partner.  The maturity of this loan was December 8, 2005 and bears
      interest at seven percent per annum.

                                   11





   -  TSI borrowed an additional $750,000 from Draupnir, LLC during the
      first fiscal quarter of 2006, bearing interest at a floating rate of
      300 basis points above the yield on ten year treasury notes,
      compounded annually and adjusted concurrently with any adjustments to
      the yield on ten year treasury notes.  The notes were due December 13,
      2005.

All of the aforementioned notes payable to related parties from TSI are in
default as of March 31, 2006 and are classified in current liabilities of
discontinued operations.

3.  CONVERTIBLE PREFERRED STOCK

The Company has the following Convertible Preferred Stock outstanding as of

</TABLE>

The Series A Convertible Preferred Stock ("Series A"), Series B Convertible
Preferred Stock ("Series B") and Series C Convertible Preferred Stock
("Series C"), collectively (the "Preferred Stock"), are convertible at any
time by the holders into a number of shares of AMCON common stock equal to
the number of preferred shares being converted times a fraction equal to
$25.00 divided by the conversion price.  The conversion prices for the
Preferred Stock are subject to customary adjustments in the event of stock
splits, stock dividends and certain other distributions on the Common Stock.
Cumulative dividends for the Preferred Stock are payable in arrears, when, as
and if declared by the Board of Directors, on March 31, June 30, September 30
and December 31 of each year.

In the event of a liquidation of the Company, the holders of the Preferred
Stock, are entitled to receive the liquidation preference plus any accrued
and unpaid dividends prior to the distribution of any amount to the holders
of the Common Stock.  The Preferred Stock also contain redemption features
which trigger based on certain circumstances such as a change of control,
minimum thresholds of ownership by the Chairman and his family in AMCON, or
bankruptcy.  The Preferred Stock are optionally redeemable by the Company
beginning on various dates, as listed above, at redemption prices equal to
112% of the liquidation preference.  The redemption prices decrease 1%
annually thereafter until the redemption price equals the liquidation
preference after which date it remains the liquidation preference.  The
Company's credit facility also prohibits the redemption of the Series A
and Series B.  Series C is only redeemable so long as no event of default is

                                   12


in existence at the time of, or would occur after giving effect to, any such
redemption, and the Company has excess availability under the credit facility
of not less than $2.0 million after giving effect to any such redemption.

The Company believes that redemption of these securities by the holders is
not probable based on the following evaluation.  Our executive officers and
directors as a group own approximately 60% of the outstanding common stock as
of March 31, 2006.  Mr. William Wright, who has been AMCON's Chairman of the
Board and Chief Executive Officer since AMCON's founding, beneficially owns
29% of the outstanding common stock without giving effect to shares owned by
his adult children at the end of fiscal 2005.  There is an identity of
interest among AMCON and its officers and directors for purposes of the
determination of whether the triggering redemption events described above are
within the control of AMCON since AMCON can only make decisions on control or
other matters through those persons.  Moreover, the Preferred Stock is in
friendly hands with no expectation that there would be any effort by the
holders of such Preferred Stock to see optional redemption without the Board
being supportive of the events that may trigger that right.  The Series A is
owned by Mr. Wright, the Company's CEO and Chairman, and a private equity
firm (Draupnir, LLC) of which Mr. Petersen, one of our long-standing
directors, and Mr. Jeremy Hobbs, a recently appointed director of the
Company, are members.  The Series B Preferred Stock is owned by an
institutional investor which has elected Mr. Chris Atayan, now AMCON's Vice
Chairman and Chief Corporate Officer, to AMCON's Board of Directors pursuant
to voting rights in the Certificate of Designation creating the Series B
Preferred Stock.  The Series C is owned by Draupnir Capital LLC, which is the
parent company of Draupnir, LLC (the owner of Series A).  Mr. Petersen and
Mr. Hobbs are also Members of Draupnir Capital, LLC.

In view of the foregoing considerations, the Company believes it is
not probable under Rule 5-02.28 of Regulation S-X that either the Series A,
Series B or Series C Preferred Stock will become redeemable in the future.

The wholesale distribution and retail health food segment inventories consist
of finished products purchased in bulk quantities to be redistributed to the
Company's customers or sold at retail.  The wholesale distribution
inventories are stated at the lower of cost (last-in, first-out or "LIFO"
method) or market and consist of the cost of finished goods.  The retail
health food operation utilizes the retail inventory method of accounting
stated at the lower of cost (LIFO) or market and consists of the costs of
finished goods.  The beverage operation's inventories are stated at the lower
of cost (LIFO) or market and consist of raw materials and finished goods.

                                   13

The beverage operation's finished goods inventory includes raw materials,
related plant labor and manufacturing overhead costs to convert raw materials
to finished goods.  Raw materials inventory consists of pre-forms used to
make bottles, caps, labels and various packaging and shipping materials.  The
LIFO reserves at March 2006 and September 2005 represent the amount by which
LIFO inventories were less than the amount of such inventories valued on a
first-in, first-out basis, respectively.  The allowance for obsolete
inventory of $0.3 million and $0.4 million at March 2006 and September 2005,
respectively, reflects estimated unsaleable or non-refundable inventory based
upon an evaluation of slow moving and discontinued products.

Goodwill, trademarks and tradenames are considered to have indefinite useful
lives and therefore no amortization has been taken on these assets.  The
Company performs an annual impairment testing of goodwill and other
intangible assets after the completion of its third fiscal quarter.

Amortization expense for intangible assets that are considered to have finite
lives was $9,933 and $19,865 and $68,192 and $107,433 for the three and six
months ended March 2006 and 2005, respectively.

Amortization expense related to intangible assets held at March 2006 for each
of the five years subsequent to September 30, 2005 is estimated to be as
follows:

6.  EARNINGS (LOSS) PER SHARE

Basic earnings (loss) per share available to common shareholders is
calculated by dividing income (loss) from continuing operations less
preferred stock dividend requirements and loss from discontinued operations
by the weighted average common shares outstanding for each period.  Diluted
earnings (loss) per share available to common shareholders is calculated by
dividing income (loss) from continuing operations less preferred stock
dividend requirements (when anti-dilutive) and loss from discontinued
operations by the sum of the weighted average common shares outstanding and
the weighted average dilutive options, using the treasury stock method.

Stock options and potential common stock outstanding at March 2006 and
March 2005 that were anti-dilutive were not included in the computations of
diluted earnings per share.  Such potential common shares totaled 356,308
with an average exercise price of $22.09 for the three and six months ended
March 2006 and 31,440 with an average exercise price of $39.75 for the three
and six months ended March 2005.

million term note ("Term Note A").  As payments are made on Term Note A, the
revolving credit limit increases accordingly to a maximum of $55.0 million.
At March 31, 2006, the credit limit on the revolving portion of the Facility
was $54.1 million.  In addition, the Facility provides for a separate term
loan in the initial amount of $5.0 million ("Term Note B").

The Facility, which expires in April 2007, includes lending limits subject to
accounts receivable and inventory limitations, an unused commitment fee equal
to 0.25% per annum on the difference between the maximum loan limit and
average monthly borrowing for the month and financial covenants.

                                   17
The significant provisions on the Facility are as follows:

   - Inclusion of the subsidiaries as part of the Facility.

   - Inclusion of Term Note A within the $55.0 million revolving limit that
     is amortized in equal monthly installments over 60 months.

   - Replacement of the LIBOR interest rate borrowing option (LIBOR plus
     2.50%) on the revolving portion of the Facility and the $1.2 million
     term loan with the bank's base rate, except for $10.0 million of
     the Facility that corresponds with the Company's remaining interest
     rate swap agreement which will remain at LIBOR plus 2.50%.

   - Inclusion of a prepayment penalty of $0.3 million should the loans be
     paid off prior to September 30, 2006.

The Facility contains covenants (as amended in 2006) that (i) restrict
permitted investments, (ii) restrict intercompany advances to certain
subsidiaries, (iii) restrict incurrence of additional debt, (iv) restrict
mergers and acquisitions and changes in business or conduct of business and
(v) requires that consolidated EBITDA (excluding TSI, TBG and HNWC) not be
less than: (a) $100,000 as of the last day of each month for the one-month
period then ending, except for the month ending February 28, 2006 which is
permitted to be zero, (b) $1,100,000 as of March 31, 2006 for the three-month
period then ending, (c) $3,200,000 as of June 30, 2006 for the six-month
period then ending, and (d) $5,500,000 as of September 30, 2006 for the
ninth-month period then ending, and (e) $6,500,000 as of December 31, 2006
for the twelve-month period then ending. The Facility also provides that the
Company may not pay dividends on its common stock in excess of $0.72 per
share on an annual basis.

The January 2006 amendment also required AMCON and its subsidiaries to hire a
turn-around consultant for the beverage businesses acceptable to the agent
for the bank lenders by January 31, 2006 and to pay to the agent its
customary fees and expenses in exercising its rights under the loan
agreement.  In addition, the amendment creates a new event of default if
AMCON or its subsidiaries makes any payment (in cash or other property) or a
judgment is entered against AMCON or its subsidiaries requiring a payment (in
cash or other property) to be made under or in connection with the guaranty
by AMCON of the TSI acquisition notes or the water royalty under the Asset
Purchase Agreement for the purported sale of TSI assets.  The amendment also
reduced the monthly payment on Term Note B from $275,000 per month to
$100,000 per month until paid in full.

The Facility also provides for a "springing" lock-box arrangement, under
which, the Company maintains a lock-box from which it may apply cash receipts
to any corporate purpose so long as it is not in default under the Facility.
The bank maintains a security interest in the Company's lock-box and upon the
occurrence of default may redirect funds from the lock-box to a loan account
in the name of the lenders on a daily basis and apply the funds against the
revolving loan balance.

As of March 31, 2006, the outstanding balance on the revolving portion of the
Facility was $45.4 million, including Term Note A.  The Facility bears
interest at the bank's base rate, which was 7.75% as of March 31, 2006 and is
collateralized by all of the Company's equipment, intangibles, inventories,
and accounts receivable.
                                   18


The outstanding balance on Term Note B was $2.2 million at March 31, 2006.
It bears interest at the bank's base rate, plus 2.0%, which was 9.75% as of
March 31, 2006 and is payable in equal monthly installments of $0.1 million
(as amended).

The Company's Chairman has personally guaranteed repayment of up to $10.0
million ($7.2 million at March 31, 2006) of the combined amount of the
Facility and the term loans.  AMCON pays the Company's Chairman a fee equal
to 2% per annum of the guaranteed principal then outstanding in return for
the personal guarantee.  This guarantee is secured by a pledge of the shares
of Chamberlin's Natural Foods, Inc., Health Food Associates, Inc., HNWC and
TSI.

Cross Default and Co-Terminus Provisions
-----------------------------------------
The Company's owned real estate in Bismarck, ND, Quincy, IL, and Rapid City,
SD, and certain warehouse equipment in the Rapid City, SD warehouse is
financed through term loans with M&I Bank (formerly known as Gold Bank) (the
"M&I Loans"), who is also a participant lender on the Company's revolving
line of credit.  The M&I Loans contain cross default provisions which cause
all loans with M&I to be considered in default if any one of the loans where
M&I is a lender, including the revolving credit facility, is in default.

In addition, the M&I Loans contain co-terminus provisions which require all
loans with M&I to be paid in full if any of the loans are paid in full prior
to the end of their specified terms.

Self-Insured Loss Control Program
---------------------------------
In connection with the Company's self-insured loss control program, AMCON has
issued a letter of credit in the amount of $1.0 million to its workers'
compensation insurance carrier.

Interest Rate Swap
------------------
The Company hedges its variable rate risk on $10.0 million of its borrowings
under the Facility by utilizing an interest rate swap agreement.  The
variable interest payable on this amount is subject to an interest rate swap
agreement which has the effect of converting this amount to a fixed rate of
4.87%.

9.  WATER ROYALTY

In connection with the assets purchased by the Company to form its
subsidiary, TSI, the Company entered into an agreement with the former owners
of those assets, Crystal Paradise Holdings, Inc. (CPH).  The agreement calls
for TSI to pay CPH, in perpetuity, an amount equal to the greater of, $0.03
per liter of water extracted from the source, or 4% of water revenues (as
defined by the purchase agreement).  The agreement is guaranteed by AMCON up
to a maximum of $5.0 million, subject to a floor of $288,000 annually.
Accordingly, the Company has recorded a $2.8 million liability related to the
present value of the future minimum water royalty payments and related broker
fees to be paid in perpetuity.

                                   19




The water royalty is secured by a first priority security and mortgage on the
acquired assets, other than inventory and accounts receivable.  CPH retains
the right to receive any water royalty payment for the first five years in
shares of AMCON common stock up to maximum of 41,666 shares.  The water
royalty can be cancelled after ten years have elapsed and the business of TSI
is sold to an unaffiliated third party, in which case CPH would be entitled
to receive the appraised fair market value of the water royalty but not less
than $5.0 million.  The Company's Chairman has in turn guaranteed AMCON in
connection with AMCON's obligation for these payments.

10.  STOCK PLANS

Prior its expiration in June 2004, AMCON maintained a stock-based
compensation plan under which the Compensation Committee of the Board of
Directors could granted incentive stock options and non-qualified stock
options pursuant to the Stock Option Plan up to 550,000 shares.  In fiscal
2005, the Compensation Committee evaluated various equity based compensation
programs and chose not to implement a new plan.

The Company accounted for the stock option grants in accordance with
Accounting Principles Board Opinion ("APB") No. 25, "Accounting for Stock
Issued to Employees" using the intrinsic value method under which
compensation cost was measured by the excess, if any, of the fair market
value of its common stock on the date of grant over the exercise price of the
stock option using the Black-Scholes option pricing model.  Accordingly,
stock-based compensation cost related to stock option grants was not
reflected in income or loss as all options granted under the plan had an
exercise price equal to or above the market value of the underlying stock on
the date of grant.  Options are generally granted at the stock's fair market
value at date of grant.  Options issued to shareholders holding 10% or more
of the Company's stock are generally issued at 110% of the stock's fair
market value at date of grant.

On October 1, 2005, the Company adopted SFAS No. 123R, Shared Based Payment
(SFAS 123R).  The Company chose to apply the modified prospective transition
method as permitted by SFAS 123R and therefore has not restated prior
periods.  Under this transition method, compensation cost associated with
employee stock options recognized for the three and six months ended March
31, 2006, includes amortization related to the remaining unvested portion of
stock options granted prior to September 30, 2005.  At March 31, 2006 the
amount of unrecognized stock option compensation expense related to
non-vested share awards was approximately $44,000.  This expense will be
recognized over a weighted average period of 1.1 years.

As a result of adopting SFAS 123R, net income before taxes included share-
based compensation expense of $15,000 and $30,000 for the three and six
months ended March 31, 2006, related to the amortization of non-vested shares
and share units.  At March 31, 2006, there were 33,066 options fully vested
and exercisable under the Stock Option Plan.  Options issued and outstanding
to management employees pursuant to the Stock Option Plan are summarized
below:

The stock options have varying vesting schedules ranging up to five years and
expire ten years after the date of grant.

11. BUSINESS SEGMENTS

AMCON has three reportable business segments: the wholesale distribution of
consumer products, the retail sale of health and natural food products, and
the bottling and distribution of bottled water products.  The retail health
food stores' operations are aggregated to comprise the retail segment because
such operations have similar economic characteristics, as well as similar
characteristics with respect to the nature of products sold, the type and
class of customers for the health food products, and the methods used to sell
the products.  The beverage segment is comprised of HNWC's operations.
As discussed in Note 2, TBG and TSI, formerly part of the beverage segment,
ceased operations on March 2005 and March 2006, respectively, and as such,
the assets have accordingly been included in the "Other" column.  Also
included in the "Other" column are the charges incurred by AMCON's holding
company (The Holding Company).  The segments are evaluated on revenues, gross
margins, operating income (loss) and income before taxes.

12.  CONTINGENCIES

The Company is involved in litigation regarding the ownership of TSI.
In December 2005, the District Court of the Fifth Judicial District of the
State of Idaho issued a ruling granting the minority shareholder plaintiffs'
motion for partial summary judgment declaring that the stockholders of
Trinity Spring, Ltd. (which subsequently changed its name to CPH Holdings,
Inc. ("CPH"), did not validly approve the sale of its business and assets to
AMCON because the vote of certain shares issued as a dividend should not have
been counted in the vote.  The District Court has not yet ruled on whether
monetary damages or rescission of the sale transaction will be ordered as the
relief for the lack of shareholder approval for the asset sale transaction,
nor has it ruled on the appropriate remedy for any other claim asserted by
the parties in this case.

However, based on a legal opinion obtained by management from independent
legal counsel, to the extent that TSI owned the assets immediately prior to
the ruling by the District Court discussed above, and has not otherwise
transferred the assets, TSI continues to own the assets. Accordingly, AMCON
has continued to account for the operations of TSI as a consolidated
subsidiary because the District Court has not taken any action to divest TSI
of its ownership of the assets.

Since the District Court's December ruling, the minority shareholder
plaintiffs have filed notice with the District Court that they agree that
rescission is not feasible.  However, the District Court has made no
determination as to the appropriate remedy for the lack of shareholder
approval of the asset sale transaction or for any other claim asserted by the
parties in this matter.  Because substantial discovery is needed, several
unresolved legal issues exist, and other pretrial work is yet to be
completed, AMCON'S management, after consulting with the trial counsel, is
unable at this time to state that any outcome unfavorable to AMCON is either
probable or remote and therefore cannot estimate the amount or range of the
potential loss, if any.

13.  RESTATEMENT OF PREVIOUSLY ISSUED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

As previously disclosed in the Company's Fiscal 2005 Annual Report on Form
10-K, the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements for the three
and six month fiscal periods ended March 31, 2005, included within this
quarterly report, have been restated.

As discussed in Item 4 - Controls and Procedures, in performing year end
audit procedures as of and for the period ended September 30, 2005 of the
Company's wholly-owned subsidiary, HNWC, the auditors noted discrepancies in
the inventory records.  These discrepancies led the Company's Audit Committee
to initiate an internal investigation which resulted in the identification of
several areas where journal entries were recorded incorrectly including
inventory production accounting errors; the overstatement of inventory when
integrating fiscal 2005 production systems and records of an operation
acquired in fiscal 2004; capitalization of certain fixed overhead costs as
inventory which should have been expensed; failure to reserve an appropriate
amount for inventory that became obsolete; and capitalization of certain
product development costs that should have been expensed as incurred.

                                   24



In addition, management and the Company's Audit Committee determined that the
Company had incorrectly allocated interest expense to one of its wholly-owned
subsidiaries that had ceased operations on March 31, 2005 (The Beverage
Group, Inc.).  Emerging Issues Task Force ("EITF") 87-24 "Allocation of
Interest to Discontinued Operations", requires that (a) interest on debt that
is to be assumed by the buyer or is required to be repaid as a result of the
disposal transaction should be allocated to discontinued operations and (b)
the allocation of discontinued operations of other consolidated interest that
is not directly attributable to or related to other operations of the
enterprise is permitted but not required.  If interest is allocated to
discontinued operations it should be determined by a ratio of net assets to
total net assets after adjusting for all interest and debt directly
attributable to other aspects of the business.

The Company allocated interest to its discontinued operation in its quarterly
reporting in fiscal 2005 using an invested capital calculation which resulted
in higher interest expense being allocated to discontinued operations than
permitted by EITF 87-24.  Accordingly, the Company concluded that only direct
interest expense, which totaled $0.1 million should have been allocated to
discontinued operations.  The fiscal 2005 impact of this restatement was
corrected in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2005 with the reclassification of
$0.5 million of interest expense, net of income tax benefit of $0.3 million
from discontinued operations to income (loss) from continuing operations.

The table set forth below gives effect to the restatements that have been
reflected in the March 31, 2005 balance sheet, statement of operations, and
statement of cash flows for the three and six months ended March 2005.

Item 2.   Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and
          Results of Operations

FORWARD LOOKING STATEMENTS

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, including the Management's Discussion and
Analysis and other sections, contains forward looking statements that are
subject to risks and uncertainties and which reflect management's current
beliefs and estimates of future economic circumstances, industry conditions,
company performance and financial results.  Forward looking statements
include information concerning the possible or assumed future results of
operations of the Company and those statements preceded by, followed by or
that include the words "future," "position," "anticipate(s)," "expect,"
"believe(s)," "see," "plan," "further improve," "outlook," "should" or
similar expressions.  For these statements, we claim the protection of the
safe harbor for forward looking statements contained in the Private
Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995.  Forward-looking statements are not
guarantees of future performance or results.  They involve risks,
uncertainties and assumptions.  You should understand that the following
important factors, in addition to those discussed elsewhere in this document,
could affect the  future results of the Company and could cause those results
to differ materially from those expressed in our forward looking statements:

   - treatment of TSI transaction,
   - changing market conditions with regard to cigarettes,
   - changes in promotional and incentive programs offered by cigarette
     manufacturers,
   - the demand for the Company's products,
   - new business ventures,
   - domestic regulatory risks,
   - competition,
   - collection of guaranteed amounts,
   - other risks over which the Company has little or no control, and
   - any other factors not identified herein could also have such an effect.

Changes in these factors could result in significantly different results.
Consequently, future results may differ from management's expectations.
Moreover, past financial performance should not be considered a reliable
indicator of future performance.  Any forward looking statement contained
herein is made as of the date of this document.  Except as required by law,
the Company undertakes no obligation to publicly update or correct any of
these forward looking statements in the future to reflect changed
assumptions, the occurrence of material events or changes in future operating
results, financial conditions or business over time.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES

Certain accounting estimates used in the preparation of the Company's
financial statements require us to make judgments and estimates and the
financial results we report may vary depending on how we make these
judgments and estimates.  Our critical accounting estimates are set forth in
our 2005 Annual Report to Shareholders on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended
September 30, 2005 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
There have been no significant changes with respect to these policies during
the first six months of fiscal 2006.

                                   27


RESTATEMENT

As previously disclosed in the Company's fiscal 2005 Annual Report on Form
10-K and as discussed in Note 13 to the unaudited condensed consolidated
financial statements, the Company's March 31, 2005 Consolidated Balance
Sheet, Statement of Operations and Statement of Cash Flows have been restated
from the amounts previously reported.  The accompanying management's
discussion and analysis and results of operations gives effect to the
restatement.

DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS

Effective March 31, 2005, The Beverage Group, Inc. ("TBG"), which represented
the marketing and distribution component of the Company's beverage segment,
discontinued its operations.  In March 2006 the operations for Trinity
Springs, Inc. ("TSI"), a component of the beverage segment, were also
discontinued.  As a result, the balance sheets as of March 31, 2006 and
September 30, 2005 and the statements of operations and statements of cash
flows for the three and six months ended March 31, 2006 and March 31, 2005
have been prepared reflecting this disposition in discontinued operations in
accordance with Statement of Financial Standards ("SFAS") No. 144 "Accounting
for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets."

Additionally, management's discussion and analysis of the results of
operations for the three and six months ended March 31, 2006 and March 31,
2005, TBG's and TSI's sales, gross profit (loss), selling, general and
administrative, depreciation and amortization, direct interest, other
expenses and income tax benefit have been aggregated and reported as a loss
from discontinued operations and are therefore not a component of the
discussion of the aforementioned items.

COMPANY OVERVIEW - SECOND FISCAL QUARTER 2006

AMCON Distributing Company ("AMCON" or the "Company") is primarily engaged in
the wholesale distribution business in the Great Plains and Rocky Mountain
regions of the United States.  In addition, AMCON operates thirteen retail
health food stores and a non-alcoholic beverage business that consists of a
natural artesian water bottling operation in the state of Hawaii.  As used
herein, unless the context indicates otherwise, the term "ADC" means the
wholesale distribution segment and "AMCON" or the "Company" means AMCON
Distributing Company and its consolidated subsidiaries.  AMCON's fiscal
second quarters ended on March 31, 2006 and March 31, 2005.  For ease of
discussion, these fiscal quarters are referred to herein as March 2006 and
2005, respectively or Q2 2006 and Q2 2005, respectively.

During the second quarter of fiscal 2006, the Company:

 -  discontinued the operations of TSI in March 2006, due to recurring losses
    and a lack of capital resources to fund operations.

 -  Amended its financial covenants with participating lenders to replace
    all minimum tangible net worth covenants and fixed charge coverage ratios
    with covenants requiring certain determined amounts of consolidated
    EBITDA, (excluding TSI, TBG and HNWC).


                                   28



 -  experienced a 2.2% increase in sales compared to the second quarter of
    fiscal 2005.

 -  recognized a loss from continuing operations per diluted share
    of ($0.12) and ($1.05) for the three and six months ended March 2006,
    respectively, compared to loss from continuing operations per
    diluted share of ($1.07) and ($0.29) for the same periods in the prior
    year.

 -  recognized loss from discontinued operations per diluted share
    of ($0.98) and ($2.45) for the three and six months ended March 2006,
    respectively, compared to a loss from discontinued operations per
    diluted share of ($2.68) and ($4.48) for the same periods in the prior
    year.

INDUSTRY SEGMENT OVERVIEWS

Wholesale Distribution Segment
-----------------------------
The wholesale distribution business represents approximately 94% of our
consolidated sales.  ADC places significant importance on an alliance with
the major cigarette manufacturers that comprise over 90% of the cigarette
industry volume.  These manufacturers obligation to their shareholders, the
importance of their branding, growing their share in a declining category and
price gap management strategies are exactly why we believe that if our
marketing programs are not aligned to support their success, then we are
competing against them.  While some of our competitors have focused on the
lower priced cigarette brands, ADC has made a conscious decision to support
and grow our national brand segment and align our business with the major
players in the industry.  We believe that the consumer's preference for
premium brands currently drives the category volume.

ADC is ranked as a top ten convenience store supplier and our retailers are
provided a broad selection of merchandise in all product categories.  We
continue to increase our food service product line selections to our customer
base to respond to current market trends.

We have worked to improve ADC's operating efficiency by investing in newer
information technology systems to help automate our buying and financial
control functions. We have also sought to minimize inventory costs by
maximizing the number of times inventory is renewed during a given period.
By managing operating costs, management believes ADC is better positioned to
compete with both smaller and larger competitors who offer less service than
ADC.

The increases in fuel prices across the United States are having a
significant impact on all distributors without any indications that fuel
prices will return to past levels.  Therefore, we expect that competition and
pressure on profit margins will continue to affect both large and small
distributors and demand that distributors continue to consolidate in order to
become more efficient.


                                   29






Retail Health Food Segment
--------------------------
The retail health food industry is experiencing an increase in sales and
gross profit driven primarily by the demand for natural products and more
health conscious consumers.  Our retail health food segment has benefitted
from this trend, experiencing sales growth in many product categories
including grocery and supplements.  Management continues to closely review
all store locations for opportunities to close or relocate marginally
performing stores, remodel and expand strong performing stores, and identify
locations for additional stores.

AMCON's retail health food stores are managed collectively through a main
office in Tulsa, Oklahoma.  The Company strives to maintain the local
identity of each store while leveraging the operating synergies of
centralized management operations.

Beverage Segment
----------------
At March 31, 2006, AMCON's beverage business consists of Hawaiian Natural
Water Company, Inc. ("HNWC").  HNWC, which is headquartered in Pearl City,
Hawaii, was formed in 1994 for the purpose of bottling, marketing and
distributing Hawaiian natural artesian water in Hawaii, the mainland and
foreign markets.  HNWC's Hawaiian Springs/R/ brand is the only bottled
natural artesian water available from Hawaii.  All other bottled waters
produced in Hawaii contain purified water, from which chemicals and minerals
have been removed by means of reverse osmosis filtration.

HNWC draws its Hawaiian Springs water from an artesian well located at the
base of the Mauna Loa mountain in Kea'au (near Hilo) on the big island of
Hawaii. The water is filtered and "bottled at the source" in polyethylene
terepthalate ("PET") plastic bottles, which are produced from pre-forms at
HNWC's bottling facility.  All of HNWC's retail PET products are bottled at
its facility in Kea'au, Hawaii.  These products consist of the Hawaiian
Springs natural artesian water line and various limited production co-
packaged products.

In addition to its premium water brands, HNWC also competes in the purified
water bottling niche.  We believe that competing in this market enables HNWC
to more effectively differentiate the premium natural artesian water from
purified bottled water products in the market place and provides a more
competitive price point in which to provide private label water to the island
of Oahu.

Trinity Springs, Inc. ("TSI"), a component of the Company's beverage segment
until March 31, 2006, ceased on-going operations in March 2006 and is
accounted for as a component of discontinued operations as discussed in Note
2 to the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

SALES

Changes in sales are driven by two primary components as follows:

      (i)  a change in the selling price of our products, which is driven in
           large part by the manufacturers of our products and the states
           because of the excise taxes imposed on cigarettes and tobacco; and

      (ii) a change in the volume of products sold to our customers, either
           due to a change in purchasing patterns resulting from consumer
           preferences or the fluctuation in the comparable number of
           business days in our reporting period.

Sales by business segment for the three and six month periods ended March
2006 and March 2005 are as follows (dollars in millions):

/2/ During the first quarter of fiscal 2005, the Company changed its reporting period from a 52-53 week
year ending on the last Friday in September to a calendar month reporting period ending on September 30.
As a result of this change, the first six months of fiscal 2005 comprises 27 weeks of operations as
compared to 26 weeks of operations in fiscal 2006.

</TABLE>

Three months ended March 2006 comparison
----------------------------------------
Sales for Q2 2006 increased 2.2%, or $4.3 million, compared to Q2 2005.
Sales are reported net of costs associated with sales incentives provided to
retailers, totaling $3.7 million and $3.6 million, for Q2 2006 and Q2 2005,
respectively.

The sales of cigarettes in the wholesale distribution segment increased by
$2.4 million and the sales of tobacco, confectionary and other products in
our wholesale distribution segment increased $0.8 million in Q2 2006 compared
to Q2 2005.  Of the increase in cigarette sales, $2.1 million related to
higher excise taxes imposed by certain states subsequent to Q2 2005 and
$1.1 million related to a $0.50 price increase on certain brands of a major
manufacturer's cigarettes that occurred in December 2005.  The above
increases in cigarette sales were offset by a $0.8 million decrease in sales
primarily attributable to a 1.8% decrease in the volume of cigarette carton
sales.  The $0.8 million increase in tobacco, confectionary and other product
sales was primarily attributable to increased volumes in Q2 2006 compared to
Q2 2005.


                                   31

Sales from the retail health food segment increased $0.9 million during Q2
2006 compared to Q2 2005.  This increase was primarily attributable to volume
growth in same store sales.  The retail health food segment has experienced
robust growth during fiscal 2006, largely due to the general upturn in the
natural products industry combined with the Company's continued marketing
efforts.

The beverage segment accounted for $1.6 million in sales in Q2 2006 compared
to $1.4 million in Q2 2005.  The increase in sales was primarily the result
of efforts by HNWC's management to expand the market penetration of its
bottle water products and grow brand awareness.

Six months ended March 2006 comparison
--------------------------------------
Sales for the six months ended March 2006 decreased to $397.0 million,
compared to $406.7 million for the same period in the prior fiscal year.

Sales from the wholesale distribution segment decreased by $11.4 million for
the six months ended March 2006 as compared to the same period in the prior
year.  Of this decrease, $8.7 million was attributable to a decrease in
cigarette sales and $2.7 million was attributable to a decrease in tobacco,
confectionary and other product sales.

During the first half of fiscal 2006, cigarette sales benefitted
approximately $3.4 million as compared to the same period in the prior year,
because of price increases implemented by major cigarette manufacturers.
Additionally, cigarette sales benefitted $6.4 million during the first half
of fiscal 2006 as a result of higher excise taxes imposed by certain states
subsequent to Q2 2005.  These increases in cigarette sales were offset by a
10.4 million decrease in sales resulting from a change in our monthly
reporting period which added an extra week of sales in the first half of
fiscal 2005.  The remaining $8.1 million decrease in cigarette sales was
primarily attributable to a 3.5% decrease in the volume of cigarette carton
sales (excluding the extra week of sales).

Of the decrease in tobacco, confectionary and other products, $3.2 million
was attributable to the impact of the change in our monthly reporting period
which added an extra week of sales in the first six months of fiscal 2005.
This decrease in sales was partially offset by a $0.5 million increase in
sales due to higher sales volumes compared to the first half of fiscal 2005.

During the first six months of fiscal 2006, sales from the retail health food
segment increased by $1.3 million compared to the same period in 2005.  Of
this increase, $1.7 million was attributable to volume growth in same store
sales.  This volume increase was partially offset by $0.4 million due to the
extra week of sales included in the first six months of fiscal 2005, which
resulted from the Company's change in monthly reporting periods.  The retail
health food segment has experienced robust growth during the first half of
fiscal 2006 largely because of the general upturn in the natural products
industry combined with the Company's continued marketing efforts.

The beverage segment accounted for $3.0 million in sales for first six months
of fiscal 2006, compared to $2.7 million for the same period in 2005. The
increase in sales was primarily attributable to a $0.4 million increase in
bottled water sales.  This increase was partially offset by a $0.1 million
decrease in sales due to the extra week
of sales included in the first six months of fiscal 2005, which resulted from
the change in the Company's monthly reporting period.
                                   32
GROSS PROFIT

Our gross profit does not include fulfillment costs and costs related to the
distribution network which are included in selling, general and
administrative costs, and may not be comparable to those of other entities.
Some entities may classify such costs as a component of cost of sales.  Cost
of sales, a component used in determining gross profit, for wholesale and
retail segments includes the cost of products purchased from manufacturers,
less incentives that we receive which are netted against such costs.  In the
beverage segment, cost of sales includes the cost of the raw materials and
related plant labor and manufacturing overhead costs required to convert raw
materials into finished goods (including labor, warehousing, depreciation and
utilities).

Gross profit by business segment for the three and six month periods ended
March 2006 and March 2005 are as follows (dollars in millions):

year ending on the last Friday in September to a calendar month reporting period ending on September 30.
As a result of this change, the first six months of fiscal 2005 comprises 27 weeks of operations as
compared to 26 weeks of operations in fiscal 2006.

</TABLE>

Three months ended March 2006 comparison
----------------------------------------
During Q2 2006, gross profit increased $1.0 million to $14.6 million compared
to $13.6 million in Q2 2005.  This represents a 7.58% increase in gross
profit compared to the same period in the prior year.  Gross profit as a
percent of sales increased slightly to 7.42% in Q2 2006 compared to 7.10% in
Q2 2005.

Gross profit from our wholesale distribution segment for Q2 2006 increased
$0.5 million compared to Q2 2005 primarily due to a smaller quarterly LIFO
charge of $0.9 million in Q2 2006 as compared to Q2 2005.  Partially,
offsetting this increase was $0.4 million related to lower gross margins
realized on cigarette and non-cigarette product sales, primarily the result
of continued pricing pressures industry-wide.

Gross profit for the retail health food segment increased $0.6 million in Q2
2006 as compared to Q2 2005.  Of this increase, $0.1 million related to
improved management of inventory scrap and throw-out costs, $0.1 million
related to a smaller LIFO charge in Q2 2006 compared to Q2 2005, and $0.4
million related to the overall growth in sales volume and product line gross
margins.

                                33


Gross profit for the beverage segment decreased $0.1 million in Q2 2006
compared to Q2 2005.  This decrease was primarily the result of higher
production costs.

Six months ended March 2006 comparison
--------------------------------------
For the six months ended March 2006, gross profit decreased $0.3 million, or
1.10% compared to the same period in the prior fiscal year.  Gross profit as
a percent of sales increased to 7.19% from 7.10% for the six month period
ended March 2006 compared to the same period in 2005.

Gross profit from our wholesale distribution segment for the six months ended
March 2006, decreased approximately $1.2 million as compared to the same
period in the prior year.  Increasing gross profit during the first six
months of fiscal 2006 was a $0.9 million smaller quarterly LIFO charge as
compared to the same period in the prior year.  This increase was partially
offset by a decrease of $0.6 million related to a reduction in manufacturers'
promotional allowances net of payments made to our customers.  Additionally,
$0.6 million of the decrease in gross profit resulted from the change in our
monthly reporting period which added an extra week of sales in the first six
months of fiscal 2005.  The remaining decrease in gross profit of $0.9
million is primarily attributable to lower sales volume and reduced gross
margins realized on customer accounts because of continued pricing pressures
industry-wide.

Gross profit for the retail health food segment for the first six months of
fiscal 2006 increased $0.8 million compared with the same period in fiscal
2005.  Of this increase, $0.2 million related to improved management of
inventory scrap and throw-out costs, $0.1 million related to a smaller LIFO
charge in Q2 2006 compared to Q2 2005, and $0.5 million related to the
overall growth in sales volume and product line gross margins.

Gross profit for the beverage segment increased $0.1 million for the first
six months of fiscal 2006 compared to the same period in 2005. This change is
primarily the result of additional sales volume and higher gross margins
realized on customer sales.

OPERATING EXPENSE - three and six months ended March 31, 2006 comparison

Operating expense includes selling, general and administrative expenses and
depreciation and amortization and impairment charges.  Selling, general and
administrative expenses include costs related to our sales, warehouse,
delivery and administrative departments for all segments. Specifically,
purchasing and receiving costs, inspection costs, warehousing costs and costs
of picking and loading customer orders are all classified as selling, general
and administrative expenses.  Our most significant expenses relate to
employee costs, facility and equipment leases, transportation costs, fuel
costs, insurance and professional fees.








                                    34



In Q2 2006, operating expenses were generally flat, increasing 1.14% or
approximately $0.2 million, as compared to Q2 2005.  This increase was
primarily related to higher bad debt expense and professional fees incurred
by the Company's beverage segment.

For the six month period ended March 2006, total operating expenses decreased
approximately $0.1 million or 0.20% as compared to the same period in the
prior year.  Items increasing operating expense for the six month period were
fuel costs and professional fees, offset by decreases in compensation costs.

INTEREST EXPENSE - three and six months ended March 31, 2006 comparison

Interest expense for Q2 2006 and for the six months ended March 2006
increased $0.1 million and $0.2 million, respectively as compared to the same
periods in 2005.  These increases were primarily related to increases in the
prime interest rate, which is the rate at which the Company primarily borrows
under its amended credit facility, and an increase in the Company's average
variable rate borrowings.  On average, the Company's borrowing rates on
variable rate debt was 1.96% higher and the average borrowings on variable
rate debt was $0.6 million lower in Q2 2006 as compared to Q2 2005.  For the
six months ended March 2006, interest rates were on average 1.99% higher and
the average borrowings on variable rate debt was $4.0 million higher as
compared to the same period in 2005.

OTHER - three and six months ended March 31, 2006 comparison

During the first six months of 2006, the "Minority interest in loss, net of
tax", was $0.0 million compared to $0.1 million for the same period in the
prior year.  The 15% minority ownership interest in TSI by independent third
parties has been reduced to zero because of cumulative losses.  No further
allocations of losses to minority shareholders will be made by the Company.

DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS - three and six months ended March 31, 2006
comparison

For the periods presented, discontinued operations consists of the Company's
former beverage marketing and distribution business, TBG, and former water
bottling operation in Idaho, TSI.  For the three and six months ended March
31, 2006, the operations incurred a net loss, net of tax, of $0.5 million and
$1.3 million, respectively as compared to a net loss, net of tax, of $1.4
million and $2.4 million for the comparable period in the prior year.

Net loss from discontinued operations for the three and six months ended
March 31, 2006, decreased $0.9 million and $1.1 million, respectively, from
the same periods in the prior year.  These decreases were primarily the
result of charges incurred in March 2005 to adjust the accounts receivable,
inventory and fixed assets to their net realizable values at TBG in addition
to the closure of on-going operations at both TBG and TSI.








                                   35

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Overview
----------
Operating Activities.  The Company requires cash to pay its operating
expenses, purchase inventory and make capital investments and acquisitions of
businesses.  In general, the Company finances these cash needs from the cash
flow generated by its operating activities and from borrowings and preferred
stock issuances, as necessary.  During the six months ended March 31, 2006
the Company used $0.1 million of cash from operating activities, primarily
the result of quicker accounts receivable turns offset by pay down of
accounts payable and accrued expenses.  Our variability in cash flows from
operating activities is heavily dependent on the timing of inventory
purchases and seasonal fluctuations.  For example, in the circumstance where
we are "buying-in" to obtain favorable terms on particular product or to
maintain our LIFO layers, we may have to retain the inventory for a period
longer than the payment terms.  This generates cash outflow from operating
activities that we expect to reverse in a later period.  Additionally, during
the warm weather months, which is our busiest time of the year, we generally
carry larger inventory back stock to ensure high fill rates to maintain
customer satisfaction.

Investing Activities. Cash of $0.4 million was utilized in investing
activities during the first six months of fiscal 2006 for capital
expenditures.

Financing Activities.  The Company generated net cash of $0.5 million from
financing activities during the first six months of 2006 primarily from the
issuance of $2.0 million of preferred stock in Q2 2006.  Cash of $2.1 million
was used in financing activities during the first six months of 2006 to pay
down long term debt and bank credit agreements.  The Company also generated
cash of $0.8 million from long-term debt issued by TSI prior to its closure.
During the first six months of 2006, $0.2 million was used to pay dividends
on preferred stock.

Cash on Hand/Working Capital.  As of March 2006, the Company had cash on hand
of $0.6 million and working capital (current assets less current liabilities)
of $28.6 million.  This compares to cash on hand of $0.5 million and working
capital of $30.6 million as of September 2005.

The Company's maximum revolving credit limit on the Facility was $54.1
million at March 31, 2006, however the amount available for use at any given
time is subject to many factors including eligible accounts receivable and
inventory balances that are evaluated on a daily basis.  On March 31, 2006,
the balance on the revolving portion of the facility was $45.4 million.
Based on our collateral and the loan limits, there was approximately $5.2
million of availability at March 31, 2006.  During the six months ended March
31, 2006 our peak borrowing was $52.5 million, our average borrowings were



                                   36







$47.7 million and our average availability was $1.7 million.  Our
availability to borrow under the Facility generally decreases as inventory
and accounts receivable levels go up because of the borrowing limitations
that are placed on the collateralized assets.

Additional Demands for Capital.  Funds generated from operations,
supplemented as necessary with funds available under the Facility, have
historically provided sufficient liquidity for operation of the wholesale and
retail businesses.  The Company's beverage businesses, which included HNWC
and TSI (prior to the discontinuance of its operations on March 31, 2006)
have contributed significant operating losses.  These losses have consumed
significant cash resources and placed the Company in a restricted liquidity
situation.

However, during the first six months of fiscal 2006, management took steps to
limit these operating losses and cash requirements going forward.  As
previously discussed, the TSI bottled water business has been closed;
management is currently seeking to resolve pending litigation matters related
to TSI (see discussion of TSI litigation in Note 12 to the condensed
consolidated unaudited financial statements) to enable the ultimate sale of
that business.  Should the resolution of the TSI litigation require the
Company to fund certain of the TSI obligations, the Company may call upon the
guaranty of the Company's CEO and Chairman, Mr. William Wright.  The HNWC
bottled water business has been reorganized and operational improvements have
been made, including cost reductions and sales price increases.  HNWC is
currently operating without requiring additional cash investments by AMCON.
The Company is also considering alternatives for the infusion of outside
capital and/or the possible sale of the HNWC business.  If successful, any
proceeds from the sale of those businesses would be utilized to reduce
related debt obligations and/or the Company's outstanding balance under the
credit facility.

The Company renegotiated and amended its credit facility in January 2006, and
all prior covenants were replaced with monthly and cumulative year to date
earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (EBITDA)
covenants (excluding all the beverage operations) that are measured at the
end of each month and quarter, respectively.  The Company is in compliance
with all such covenants, and based on operating forecasts currently expects
to remain in compliance with such covenants with the possible exception of
the December 2006 and February 2007 monthly covenants.  Further, management
is in preliminary negotiations to modify the covenants and to extend the
current maturity date of April 2007, on similar terms.  Although no
assurances can be given, management believes it will be successful in
obtaining an extension and covenant modifications.

Based on its operating forecasts and projected cash requirements, management
believes the Company has adequate cash resources to fund its operations and
capital expenditure needs as well to meet its debt obligations as they mature
through fiscal 2006 and fiscal 2007 with the extension of the maturity date
for the credit facility and its covenant modifications.


                                   37






Contractual Obligations
-----------------------
There have been no significant changes to the Company's contractual
obligations as set forth in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for
the fiscal period ended September 30, 2005.

Credit Agreement
-------------------
The Company's primary source of borrowing for liquidity purposes is its
revolving credit facility with LaSalle Bank (the "Facility").  As of March
2006, the outstanding balance on the Facility was $45.4 million, including
Term Note A and the portion of the revolver attributable to TSI.  The
Facility, which was amended in October 2004, transferred $1.2 million of
revolving debt to term debt and added the subsidiaries, except TSI, as
borrowers.  TSI was subsequently added as a borrower in April 2005.  The
Facility bears interest at a variable rate equal to the bank's base rate,
which was 7.75% at March 2006.  The Company may, however, select a rate equal
to LIBOR plus 2.50%, for an amount of the Facility up to $10.0 million which
relates to our swap agreement.  The Facility restricted borrowings for
intercompany advances to TBG and TSI to $1.0 million in the aggregate and to
the retail health food subsidiaries and HNWC to $0.9 million in the aggregate
in fiscal 2005 and $0.1 million in the aggregate in subsequent years.

The amended Facility requires the Company to pay an unused commitment fee
equal to 0.25% per annum on the difference between the maximum loan limit and
average monthly borrowing for the month.  The Facility is collateralized by
all of the Company's equipment, intangibles, inventories, and accounts
receivable and expires in April 2007.

The Facility contains covenants (as amended in January 2006) that (i)
restrict permitted investments, (ii) restrict intercompany advances to
certain subsidiaries, (iii) restrict incurrence of additional debt, (iv)
restrict mergers and acquisitions and changes in business or conduct of
business and (v) requires that consolidated EBITDA (excluding TSI, HNWC and
The Beverage Group, Inc.) not be less than: (a) $100,000 as of the last day
of each month for the one-month period then ending, except for the month
ending February 28, 2006 which is permitted to be zero, (b) $1,100,000 as of
March 31, 2006 for the three-month period then ending, (c) $3,200,000 as of
June 30, 2006 for the six-month period then ending, and (d) $5,500,000 as of
September 30, 2006 for the ninth-month period then ending, and (e) $6,500,000
as of December 31, 2006 for the twelve-month period then ending.  The
Facility also provides that the Company may not pay dividends on its common
stock in excess of $0.72 per share on an annual basis.

The Company has a $5.0 million (face amount) Term Note B from LaSalle Bank,
which had an outstanding balance of $2.2 million at March 2005.  Term Note B
bears interest at the bank's base rate plus 2.00%, which was 9.75% at March
2006 and is required to be repaid in eighteen monthly installments of $0.3
million (subsequently amended in March 2006 to be repaid in monthly
installments of $0.1 million).


                                   38





The Company's Chairman personally guaranteed repayment of up to $10.0 million
of the combined amount of the Facility and the term loans.  The amount of the
guarantee at March 31, 2006 was $7.2 million.  AMCON will pay the Company's
Chairman an annual fee equal to 2% of the guaranteed principal in return for
the personal guarantee.  This guarantee is secured by a pledge of the shares
of Chamberlin's Natural Foods, Inc., Health Food Associates, Inc., HNWC and
TSI.

The Company hedges its variable rate risk on a notional $10.0 million of its
borrowings under the Facility by use of an interest rate swap agreement.
This swap agreement, which expires in June 2006, has the effect of converting
the interest on this amount of debt to a fixed rate of 4.87% per annum.

Preferred Stock
---------------
In March 2006, the Company completed a $2.0 million private placement of
Series C Convertible Preferred Stock representing 80,000 shares at $25 per
share.  The proceeds of the issuance were used to reduce the Company's
outstanding balance on its revolving credit facility.  The Series C
Convertible Preferred Stock was purchased by a related party of the Company
as more fully discussed in Note 3.

Cross Default and Co-Terminus Provisions
-----------------------------------------
The Company's owned real estate in Bismarck, ND, Quincy, IL, and Rapid City,
SD, and certain warehouse equipment in the Rapid City, SD warehouse is
financed through term loans with Marshall and Ilsley (the "M & I Loans"),
formerly Gold Bank, which is also a participant lender on the Company's
revolving line of credit.  The M & I Loans contain cross default provisions
which cause all loans with M & I to be considered in default if any one of
the loans where M & I is a lender, including the revolving credit facility,
is in default.

In addition, the M & I Loans contain co-terminus provisions which require all
loans with M & I to be paid in full if any of the loans are paid in full
prior to the end of their specified terms.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
------------------------------
The Company does not have any off-balance sheet arrangements.

Item 3.   Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.

The Company is exposed to interest rate risk on its variable rate debt.
At March 2006, the Company had $37.5 million of variable rate debt
outstanding (excluding $10.0 million variable rate debt which is fixed
through the swaps described below), with maturities through April 2007.
The interest rate on this debt was 7.75% at March 2006.  We estimate that our
annual cash flow exposure relating to interest rate risk based on our current
borrowings is approximately $0.2 million for each 1% change in our lender's
prime interest rate.



                                   39



As discussed in Note 8 to the consolidated financial statements, the LIBOR
interest rate borrowing option was removed, except for the portion of the
loan that is related to the swap agreement as part of the revolving credit
facility restructuring in October 2004.

At March 2006, the Company has an interest rate swap agreement with a bank in
order to mitigate the Company's exposure to interest rate risk on this
variable rate debt.  Under the agreement, the Company agreed to exchange, at
specified intervals, fixed interest amounts for variable interest amounts
calculated by reference to agreed-upon notional principal amounts of $10.0
million.  The interest rate swap effectively converts $10.0 million of
variable-rate senior debt to fixed-rate debt at a rate of 4.87% on the $10.0
million notional amount through the maturity of the swap agreements on June
2, 2006.  This interest rate swap agreement has been designated as a hedge
and is accounted for as such for financial accounting purposes.

We do not utilize financial instruments for trading purposes and hold no
derivative financial instruments other than the interest rate swaps which
could expose us to significant market risk.

Item 4.   Controls and Procedures

The Company maintains disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules
13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the
"Exchange Act")), that are designed to ensure that information required to be
disclosed in the Company's reports filed or furnished under the Exchange Act
is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods
specified in the Exchange Act related rules and forms of the SEC.  Such
information is accumulated and communicated to the Company's management,
including its Chief Executive Officer ("CEO") and Chief Financial Officer
("CFO"), as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required
disclosures.  Any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and
operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance of achieving
the desired control objectives.

The Company carried out the evaluation required by paragraph (b) of the
Exchange Act Rules 13a-15 and 15d-15, under the supervision and with the
participation of our management, including the CEO and CFO, of the
effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures.  Based upon this
evaluation, as a result of the material weaknesses described below, the CEO
and CFO concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were not
effective, as of March 31, 2006.  The Company's management conducted a
similar evaluation for each of the comparable periods in fiscal 2005.  While
the CEO and CFO had concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures
were effective at the time, they now conclude, as a result of the material
weaknesses described below, that our disclosure controls and procedures were
not effective, as of March 31, 2005.

As more fully described under Item 9A, Controls and Procedures, of the
Company's Fiscal 2005 Annual Report on Form 10-K, in connection with the
Company's September 30, 2005 year end audit the Company's discovered (i)
through a physical inventory count at its subsidiary, Hawaiian Natural Water
Co., Inc. ("HNWC"), that incorrect accounting entries had been made and (ii)
that the Company had incorrectly allocated interest expense to one of its
wholly-owned subsidiaries that had ceased operations on March 31, 2005 (The
Beverage Group, Inc.).   The recording of such incorrect entries represent
material weaknesses in internal control over financial reporting.

                                40

To mitigate the control weaknesses described below, the Company performed
additional analysis and other post-closing procedures in order to prepare the
condensed consolidated unaudited financial statements in accordance with
generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America.
Accordingly, management believes that the condensed consolidated unaudited
financial statements as of and for the quarter ended March 31, 2006, as
included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, fairly present in all
material respects our financial condition, results of operations, and cash
flows for the periods presented.

A material weakness is a significant control deficiency, or combination of
significant control deficiencies, that results in more than a remote
likelihood that a material misstatement of the annual or interim financial
statements will not be prevented or detected.  Management and the Company's
independent registered public accountants identified the following material
weaknesses:

     a) The Company did not maintain sufficient levels of appropriately
        qualified and trained personnel in the accounting office of HNWC,
        specifically as they related to the integration of new business
        operations and the application of certain aspects of inventory
        and manufacturing accounting;

     b) The Company did not maintain sufficient oversight and review of the
        disclosure controls and procedures of its subsidiaries during fiscal
        year 2005 to identify the material weaknesses in the internal
        control over financial reporting at HNWC in a timely manner; and

     c) The Company did not correctly apply the accounting guidance contained
        in certain Emerging Issues Task Force Applications ("EITF's")
        relating to the allocation of interest expense to the Company's
        discontinued operation (TBG).

Changes in our internal control over financial reporting were made in the
first three quarters of fiscal 2006 to correct the deficiencies noted above.
However, these changes were not fully operational at March 31, 2006.  The
following changes have materially affected or are reasonably likely to affect
our internal control over financial reporting:

     1) AMCON's corporate management terminated the employment of HNWC's then
        current President and Chief Financial Officer.

     2) AMCON's corporate management hired a new acting president and a
        qualified accounting consultant at HNWC to investigate the
        irregularities and guide internal accounting personnel in the
        application of generally accepted accounting principles related to
        inventory and production cost accounting.

     3) HNWC management hired additional accounting staff at HNWC with more
        experience.

     4) HNWC management is now reviewing all product cost summaries and
        all inventory cost changes as part of its ongoing internal controls.


                                   41



     5) AMCON's corporate management implemented procedures to ensure
        proper review and approval of all adjusting journal entries
        posted at HNWC, as well as, increasing monthly review of subsidiary
        financial statements as part of its ongoing internal controls.

     6) The Company has enhanced the training of our accounting staff and
        required periodic review of a wider variety of current technical
        accounting literature to obtain a reasonable level of assurance that
        all appropriate accounting guidance is applied to transactions such
        as discontinued operations and will retain financial expertise as
        deemed necessary.
