PART I



Item 1.

BUSINESS

Recent Developments and Description



Bairnco Corporation was incorporated under the laws of the State of New York on April 9, 1981. Effective September 24, 1991, Bairnco Corporation changed its state of incorporation from New York to Delaware.  Unless otherwise indicated herein, the terms "Bairnco" and the "Corporation" refer to Bairnco Corporation and its subsidiaries.



Bairnco operates two core businesses  Arlon and Kasco. Arlon businesses design, manufacture, and sell engineered materials and components for the electronic, industrial and commercial markets. These products are based on common technologies in coating, laminating, polymers, and dispersion chemistry. Kasco is a leading provider of meat-room products and maintenance services for the meat and deli departments of supermarkets; restaurants; meat, poultry and fish processing plants; and manufacturers and distributors of electrical saws and cutting equipment throughout North America, Europe, Asia and South America.



In February of 2000 Bairnco purchased certain assets of the materials business (Signtech) of Signtech USA, Ltd., a manufacturer of laminated vinyl fabrics designated for use in the commercial graphics market.  In January 2001, Bairnco purchased selected net assets ("Viscor") of Viscor, Inc.  Viscor's engineered, coated products include transfer adhesives, single and double-coated foam and film tapes, and other custom coated products.  The acquisitions complemented Arlon's graphic and industrial products with product line extensions, additional brand recognition, and penetration into new customer segments and markets.  The acquisitions also expanded Arlon's coating and converting capacity.



To improve productivity, reduce costs and improve product development focus, Arlon's Northbrook, Illinois facility was closed on December 31, 2001 and production was transferred to Arlon's Santa Ana, California and East Providence, Rhode Island plants.



In 2003 the Board of Directors approved a plan for the consolidation of its industrial engineered coated products businesses in a new leased facility in San Antonio, Texas. The goal was to create a critical business size with a focused management, development, engineering and production team in one location which is more responsive to our customers requirements and to the development of new products, and is more cost effective. The consolidation project was substantially completed at the end of 2004.  Total consolidation expenses were $2,992,000 plus there was $3,600,000 of capital expenditures in connection with the plan. Operating results remained substantially below expected performance levels during 2005 due to poor production scheduling, increased scrap, inefficient labor and increased raw material costs. Management was changed and signs of improvement were evident by the end of the year.  Continued improvement in operations is expected to result in savings in excess of $1,500,000 as compared to 2005.



Arlons East Providence, Rhode Island facility was sold for $2.0 million in the fourth quarter of 2004 which resulted in a pre-tax gain of $1.2 million.



During the second quarter of 2003, Arlon, Inc. purchased the MOX-Tape® brand of products, including inventory and related equipment, from Flexfab Horizons International, Inc., of Hastings, Michigan.  The business was moved to Arlons Bear, Delaware plant.  MOX-Tape® products consist of un-reinforced and reinforced silicone, self-fusing tapes used in a broad range of applications and markets, including high temperature electrical and mechanical insulation for the military, aerospace, automotive, utility, and power generation markets.  The acquisition expanded Arlons self-fusing silicone tapes product line with the addition of the reinforced tapes.  Arlon is a leader in semi-cured and uncured precision-calendered silicone, silicone-coated fabrics, and silicone self-fusing tapes.



During 2004, plans were approved to establish a China manufacturing facility for Arlons Electronic Materials. Due to delays in permitting and licensing, ground-breaking only occurred in December 2005. Actual production is expected to begin by the third quarter of 2006. Organizational costs of $529,000 were incurred in 2005 of which $140,000 is reflected in cost of sales and $389,000 in selling and administrative expenses. Organizational and start up expenses of $500,000 are estimated to be incurred primarily in the first half of 2006. There will be additional redundancy costs in the second half that will be a function of how smoothly and quickly the plant goes into production. Capital expenditures of $2.5 million were incurred in 2005 and are estimated at $4.4 million in 2006. The plant will produce specialty laminates for our customers worldwide. The two laminate plants in the United States will continue to operate but with reduced volumes.



During 2005, Kasco successfully transitioned its manufacturing operations to Mexico and was in full operation by the end of the third quarter. The costs of relocation in 2005 were $987,000 versus the initial estimate of $500,000. The increased costs were driven by the inherent inefficiencies of running two factories longer than anticipated due to delays in moving the equipment and transitioning all production until the third quarter. Total capital expenditures related to the relocation were $865,000 in 2005 versus budget of $775,000.



At December 31, 2005, Bairnco employed 878 persons including 20 headquarters personnel. Bairnco's operations occupy approximately 885,000 square feet of factory and office space at its principal locations. There is an additional 20,000 square feet of leased space used as field warehouses throughout North America.

ARLON ELECTRONIC MATERIALS SEGMENT



Description of Business



Arlon Electronic Materials principal products include high performance materials for the printed circuit board industry and silicone rubber-based insulation materials used in a broad range of industrial, military/aerospace, consumer and commercial markets.



Arlon is known worldwide as a premier supplier of high technology materials to the printed circuit board (PCB) industry.  Arlon products are marketed principally to original equipment manufacturers (OEMs) and PCB manufacturers by a direct technical sales force, as well as, distributors in the US, and through distributors and manufacturers representatives in Europe, the Middle East, and Asia-Pacific, supported by direct technical sales specialists. Arlons conventional laminates product line includes a wide variety of specialty polyimide and epoxy laminates and bonding films, as well as, other high performance thermoset laminates. These materials are used in demanding commercial and military market applications including high density interconnect (HDI), surface mount technology (SMT), heat sink bonding, semiconductor testing, wireless communications and microvia PCB's. The microwave and RF product area offers fluoropolymers (i.e. PTFE), ceramic-filled fluoropolymers, and other non-PTFE laminates that deliver the electrical performance needed in frequency-dependent circuit applications such as analog, digital and personal communication systems (PCS), high frequency military electronics, microwave antennas and base stations. These products are supplied as copper-clad laminates with bonding plies or prepregs for production of multi-layer printed circuits.



Arlon also manufactures a line of silicone rubber materials used in a broad range of military, consumer, industrial and commercial products.  Typical applications and products include: silicone bagging materials for producing composite parts; silicone insulating tapes for electric traction motor coil windings; insulation materials for industrial and commercial flexible heaters; silicone materials for high temperature hose and duct markets; insulating tape for medium and high voltage electrical splices and self-fusing tapes for a variety of industrial and commercial applications; as well as compliant, thermally or electrically conductive silicone film adhesives known as ThermabondTM for heat sink-bonding to printed circuit boards.



Competition



There are numerous competitors ranging in size from small, sole proprietorships to units of very large, multinational corporations that in certain instances have far greater market positions and financial resources than the Corporations.



Competition for Arlon's products varies by product line and type of customer.  Competition for established lines is usually based on one or more elements such as specification position, lead time, price, product performance, or technical support and customer service. It may also be based on the ability to service emerging technologies through the custom design of new products, or redesign of existing products, as well as the development of materials for new applications.  As an example, for some high performance materials sold to the printed circuit board industry, the consistent technical performance of the materials supplied in excess of specified standards can be the critical competitive element.  In addition, Arlon sells a significant portion of its circuit board materials into the Far East and European markets where local producers of similar materials have a competitive advantage related to their geographic location.



Distribution



Arlon products are marketed by company sales personnel, as well as outside sales representatives and distributors in North and South America, Europe, the Middle East, Asia-Pacific, and other international markets.



Raw Materials and Purchased Parts



The essential raw materials used in Arlon Electronic Materials are silicone rubber, fiberglass cloth, pigments, copper foil, aluminum and Alloy 600 foil, polyethylene foam and various plastic films, special papers and release liners, vinyl resins, various adhesives and solvents, TeflonTM or polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) resin, polyimide resin, epoxy resins, other thermoset resins, as well as, various chemicals.  Generally, these materials are each available from several qualified suppliers.  There are, however, several raw materials used in Arlon Electronic Materials products that are purchased from chemical companies that are proprietary in nature.  Other raw materials are purchased from a single approved vendor on a "sole source" basis, although alternative sources could be developed in the future if necessary.  However, the qualification procedure can take several months or longer and could therefore interrupt production if the primary raw material source became unexpectedly unavailable. Current suppliers are located in the United States, Asia, and Europe.



Patents and Trademarks



The Corporation owns patents and several registered trademarks under which certain Arlon Electronic Materials products are sold. The Corporation does not believe that the loss of any or all of these trademarks would have a material adverse effect on this segment.







#

Arlon specialty graphic films are marketed under the Arlon, CalonÒ and MIITM brand names and include cast and calendered vinyl films that are manufactured in a wide variety of colors, face stocks and adhesive systems.  These vinyl films are used in commercial and electrical signage, point of purchase displays, highway signage, fleet markings, and other commercial advertising applications. Arlon also manufactures laminated vinyl fabrics for corporate identity programs. These products are marketed under the Signtechâ brand name and complement the CalonÒ specialty graphic films.



Arlon manufactures and markets custom-engineered laminates and coated products. Typical applications include insulating foam tapes for thermopane windows, specialty flexible circuit materials, electrical insulation materials for motors and transformers, thermal insulation panels for appliances and cars, durable printing stock, transfer adhesives used in industrial assembly, and single and double-coated foam and film tapes and other custom engineered laminates for specific industrial applications.



Competition



There are numerous competitors ranging in size from small, sole proprietorships to units of very large, multinational corporations that in certain instances have far greater market positions and financial resources than the Corporations.



Competition varies by product line and type of customer.  While competition for established lines is usually based on one or more of lead time, price, product performance, or technical support and customer service, it may also be based on the ability to service emerging technologies through the custom design of new products, or redesign of existing products, and materials for the new applications.



Distribution



Arlon Coated Materials products are marketed by company sales personnel, outside sales representatives and distributors in North and South America, Europe, Australia, the Far East and several other international markets.



Raw Materials and Purchased Parts



The essential raw materials used by Arlon Coated Materials include pigments, copper foil, aluminum foil, polyethylene foam and various plastic films, calendered vinyl, special papers and release liners, vinyl resins, various adhesives and solvents, and various chemicals.  Generally, these materials are each available from several qualified suppliers.  There are, however, several raw materials used in Arlon Coated Material's products that are purchased from chemical companies and are proprietary in nature.  Other raw materials are purchased from a single approved vendor on a "sole source" basis, although alternative sources could be developed in the future if necessary.  However, the qualification procedure can take from several months to an extended period of time and could therefore interrupt production if the primary raw material source was lost unexpectedly. Current suppliers are located in the United States, Asia, and Europe.



Patents and Trademarks



The Corporation owns several registered trademarks under which certain Arlon Coated Materials products are sold. The Corporation does not believe that the loss of any or all of these trademarks would have a material adverse effect on this segment.

KASCO REPLACEMENT PRODUCTS AND SERVICES SEGMENT



Description of Business



Kasco is a leading provider of meat-room products and repair services for the meat, deli, and seafood departments of supermarkets; for restaurants; for meat, poultry and fish processing plants; and for manufacturers and distributors of electrical saws and cutting equipment throughout North America, Europe, Asia, and South America.  These products and services include band saw blades for cutting meat and fish, band saw blades for cutting wood and metal, grinder plates and knives for grinding meat, repair and maintenance services for food equipment in retail grocery and restaurant operations, electrical saws and cutting machines, seasoning products, and other related butcher supply products.



Kascos products and services are sold under a number of brand names including Kasco Corporation in the United States and Canada, Atlantic Service Co. in the United Kingdom and Canada, Bertram & Graf in Germany, and Biro France and EuroKasco in France.



Competition and Marketing



Kasco competes with several large and medium-sized national and regional companies, as well as numerous small local companies.  The principal methods of competition are product quality, geographic coverage capability to service customers, equipment repair service capability, and product price.



Kasco has a significant distribution network that reaches over 20,000 retail grocery stores, restaurants, delis, and processing plants in the US, Canada, Europe, Latin America and Asia.  Kascos distribution network is made up of corporate-direct salesmen, route salesmen, repair service technicians, and distributors who have in-depth knowledge of the local markets and each customers needs.  Kascos geographic reach also includes product sourcing.  Kasco manufactures or sources high quality and competitively priced meat room cutting blades, butcher supplies, and repair parts, from factories and suppliers around the world.



During 2005, Kasco made significant investment in its North America and UK operations.  Kasco North America relocated its primary manufacturing facility from St. Louis to Matamoros, Mexico.  Both Kasco North America and Atlantic Service Co, UK invested in significant new coil manufacturing capacity.  Kasco North America also expanded its US and Canada Service Repair network, by hiring new technicians and investing in new vehicles, computers, and parts inventory.



Since 2000, the market environment for Kasco has been difficult due to market contraction through retail consolidation and the industrys shift to Case Ready product offerings.  Kasco has responded by successfully diversifying into repair and maintenance services for the retail grocery industry, and by globally sourcing and effectively distributing high quality and competitively priced butcher supplies and equipment.  During 2006, Kasco will continue to diversify and expand its repair services business and butcher supplies distribution business.  Kasco will also make investments in new productivity projects during 2006, to further improve our cost position, product quality, and distribution capability.



Raw Materials and Purchased Supplies



High quality carbon steel and stainless steel are the principal raw materials used in the manufacture of band saw blades; they are purchased from multiple domestic and international suppliers. Tool steel is utilized in manufacturing meat grinder plates and knives and is purchased from qualified suppliers located in the United States, Europe and Japan. Equipment, replacement parts, and supplies are purchased from a number of manufacturers and distributors in Asia, the United States, and Europe.  In France and Canada, certain specialty equipment and other items used in the supermarket industry and in the food processing industry are purchased and resold under exclusive distributorship agreements with the equipment manufacturers. All of the raw materials and purchased products utilized by this segment have been readily available throughout this last year.



Patents and Trademarks



The Corporation has a number of US and foreign mechanical patents related to several of the products manufactured and sold by Kasco, as well as a number of design patents and registered trademarks.  The Corporation does not believe, however, that the loss of any or all of those patents would have a material adverse effect on this segment.







FOREIGN OPERATIONS



The Corporation has foreign operations located in Canada, Mexico, China, the United Kingdom, France and Germany.  Information on the Corporation's operations by geographical area for the last three fiscal years is set forth in Note 9 to the Consolidated Financial Statements on pages 42 and 43 of Bairnco's 2005 Annual Report to Stockholders which is incorporated herein by reference.



In addition, export sales from the Corporation's US based operations for the years ended December 31, 2005, 2004 and 2003 were approximately $42,853,000, $43,557,000 and $37,668,000, respectively. Export sales to any particular country or geographic area did not exceed 10% of consolidated sales during any of these years.

Item 3.

LEGAL PROCEEDINGS



As discussed in "Management's Discussion and Analysis" set forth on pages 10 through 20 of Bairnco's 2005 Annual Report to Stockholders and in Note 10 to the Consolidated Financial Statements, which is incorporated herein by reference, in the third quarter 2004 Bairnco obtained final resolutions on three long-pending lawsuits.



In one of these lawsuits (the Transactions Lawsuit),  trustees representing asbestos claimants brought claims of over $700 million against Bairnco, its subsidiaries, and other defendants.   A judgment in favor of the defendants was affirmed in May 2004 by the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit.  Plaintiffs time to seek review by the United States Supreme Court of the Court of Appeals decision expired in August 2004.



A second lawsuit by these trustees against Bairnco (the NOL Lawsuit), involving a dispute over federal income tax refunds that had been held in escrow since the 1990s, was settled in September 2004. Pursuant to a settlement agreement dated September 10, 2004, Bairnco received $24,695,000 (about 70 percent of the escrowed funds), and the NOL Lawsuit was dismissed with prejudice.



The final resolution of the Transactions Lawsuit in favor of Bairnco resulted in the final resolution of a third lawsuit brought by these trustees (the Properties Lawsuit), involving a dispute over the title to certain real and personal property.  In 2001, when the Properties Lawsuit was dismissed, without prejudice, against Bairnco and its Arlon subsidiary, the parties agreed that this dispute would be determined in accordance with the final resolution of the Transactions Lawsuit.



Bairnco Corporation and its subsidiaries are defendants in a number of other pending actions.  Management of Bairnco believes that the disposition of these other actions will not have a material adverse effect on the consolidated results of operations or the financial position of Bairnco and its subsidiaries as of December 31, 2005.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Item 7A.

QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET

RISK



Market risks relating to the Corporation's operations result primarily from changes in interest rates and changes in foreign currency exchange rates.



Impact of Interest Rates



The interest on the Corporations bank debt is floating and based on prevailing market interest rates.  For market rate based debt, interest rate changes generally do not affect the market value of the debt but do impact future interest expense and hence earnings and cash flows, assuming other factors remain unchanged. A theoretical one-percentage point increase (decrease) in market rates in effect on December 31, 2005 would change interest expense and hence change the net income of the Corporation by approximately $62,000 per year.



The following table summarizes the principal cash flows of the Corporation's financial instruments outstanding at December 31, 2005, categorized by type of instrument and by year of maturity.  There have been no changes in market risk factors for the year ended December 31, 2005.



|                                                                 | 2006           | 2007      | 2008      | 2009      | Total  | Fair Value

|Short Term Debt                                                  | $2,233         | $      -- | $      -- | $      -- | $2,233 | $2,233

|Revolving line of credit  domestic (5.3% - 5.35% interest rate) | --             | --        | 3,500     | --        | 3,500  | 3,500

|Note Payable                                                     | 100            | 100       | --        | --        | 200    | 199       
|Other Foreign Loan Facility                                      | 34             | --        | --        | --        | 34     | 34        



Impact of Foreign Currency Exchange Rates



The Corporations sales denominated in a currency other than U.S. dollars were approximately 19.6% of total sales for the year ended December 31, 2005.  Net assets maintained in a functional currency other than U.S. dollars at December 31, 2005 were approximately 10.7% of total net assets. The translation effect of changes in foreign currency exchange rates on the Corporation's revenues, earnings and net assets maintained in a functional currency other than U.S. dollars has not historically been significant.  At December 31, 2005, a 10% weaker U.S. dollar against the currencies of all foreign countries in which the Corporation had operations during 2005, would have resulted in an increase of revenues by $2.7 million, and an increase in operating profit by $128,000.  A 10% stronger U.S. dollar would have resulted in similar decreases to revenues and operating profit.



Effect of Inflation



General inflation has had minimal impact on Bairnco's operating results in the last three years.  Sales prices and volumes have been more strongly influenced by specific market supply and demand and by foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations than by inflationary factors.

Item 9A.

CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES



Limitations on the Effectiveness of Controls



Our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, does not expect that our Disclosure Controls or Internal Controls will prevent all errors and all fraud.  A control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met.  Further, the design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs.



Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within our company have been detected.  These inherent limitations include the realities that judgments in decision-making can be faulty and that breakdowns can occur because of a simple error or mistake.  Additionally, controls can be circumvented by the individual acts of some persons, by collusion of two or more people or by management override of the control.  The design of any system of controls also is based partly on certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions.



Notwithstanding the foregoing limitations, we believe that our Disclosure Controls and Internal Controls provide reasonable assurances that the objectives of our control system are met.



Quarterly Evaluation of the Companys Disclosure Controls and Internal Controls



a)

The Corporation carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of the Corporations management, including the Corporations Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Corporations disclosure controls and procedures as of December 31, 2005, pursuant to Rule 13a-14 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the Exchange Act).  Based upon that evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that the Corporations disclosure controls and procedures are effective in timely alerting them to material information relating to the Corporation (including its consolidated subsidiaries) required to be included in the Corporations Exchange Act filings.



b)

There have been no significant changes in the Corporations internal controls or in other factors which could significantly affect internal controls subsequent to the date the Corporation carried out its evaluation.

All pre-approvals must take place in advance of the services within a period not to exceed three months prior to the start of the engagement.

The proposals must include detailed back-up documentation regarding the specific services to be provided. Any expected change in the audit scope or related fees from the pre-approved amounts will also require pre-approval in advance of the additional work.
