ITEM 1.  BUSINESS

COMPANY OVERVIEW

AMCON Distributing Company was incorporated in Delaware in 1986 and our
common stock is listed on the American Stock Exchange (AMEX) under the symbol
"DIT".  The Company operates two business segments:

      - Wholesale Distribution Segment - The Company is a leading
        wholesale distributor of consumer products, including cigarettes and
        tobacco products, candy and other confectionery, beverages,
        groceries, paper products and health and beauty care products.

      - Retail Health Food Segment - The Company operates thirteen retail
        health food stores in Florida and the Midwest.

WHOLESALE DISTRIBUTION SEGMENT

OPERATIONS.  ADC serves approximately 4,000 retail outlets in the Great
Plains and Rocky Mountain regions including convenience stores, grocery
stores, liquor stores, drug stores and tobacco shops.  In November 2006, ADC
was ranked as the eighth (8th) largest convenience store distributor based on
annual sales, by Convenience Store News, a trade periodical.  ADC accounted
for approximately 96% of the Company's total revenue for fiscal 2007.

ADC distributes approximately 14,000 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.  In fiscal 2007,
cigarette sales accounted for approximately 75% of ADC's revenue, with
non-cigarette product categories comprising 25% of revenues. ADC's principal
suppliers include Philip Morris USA, RJ Reynolds Tobacco, Proctor & Gamble,
Hershey, Mars, William Wrigley and Nabisco.  ADC also markets private label
lines of tobacco, snuff, water, candy products, batteries, film, and other
products.



                                  4




ADC's main corporate office is in Omaha, Nebraska.  Additionally, ADC
operates five distribution centers located in Illinois, Missouri, Nebraska,
North Dakota and South Dakota.  These distribution centers, combined with two
cross-dock facilities, contain a total of approximately 487,000 square feet
of floor space and employ modern equipment for the distribution of our large
and diverse product mix. ADC also operates a fleet of approximately 220
delivery vehicles, including straight trucks and over-the-road vehicles with
both refrigerated and nonrefrigerated trailers.

COMPETITIVE STRENGTHS.  The wholesale distribution business is a mature,
highly competitive industry.  To differentiate itself, ADC applies a number
of strategies focused around providing market leading customer service
programs and flexible delivery capabilities. These strategies have helped
position ADC as a distributor of choice for both small independent retail
outlets and multi-location retail outlets.

ADC's customer service programs include providing assistance in tracking and
maximizing vendor promotions, access to private label and custom food
services, store layout and design consultation, and overall profit
maximization consulting. These programs have proven particularly popular with
our independent retail outlets, many of which have less in-house expertise
and resources than multi-location retailers.

ADC's distribution service capabilities include several programs designed to
assist our customers in managing inventory and cash flow.  These programs
include our next-day delivery policy and our acceptance of orders for
cut-case quantities (i.e. small quantity orders).  Our customers also have
the ability to place their orders electronically through a number of
automated technologies, in addition to utilizing services such as automated
inventory tracking, access to competitive retail pricing data, and advisement
of new product offerings.

BUSINESS STRATEGY.  The wholesale distribution industry (the "Industry")
continues to experience significant changes driven by high fuel costs,
increasing cigarette and tobacco excise taxes, the popularity of deep-
discount cigarette brands, and consolidation within the Industry's customer
base (particularly convenience stores and tobacco shops).  Collectively,
these items have pressured profit margins industry-wide.

Cigarette and tobacco sales remain a large percentage of our customers' total
in-store sales volume.  Historically, cigarette and tobacco products were
purchased from a variety of sales channels, including grocery stores.  In
recent years, however, consumers have increasingly purchased their cigarette
and tobacco products from convenience stores, which is one of ADC's largest
customer segments.  ADC remains largely dependent on or subject to the
pricing and promotional programs offered by the major tobacco manufacturers,
which can vary from year-to-year.

To capitalize on the industry-wide changes mentioned above, ADC has
aggressively managed its cost structure, heavily leveraged inventory
management strategies, and deployed new technologies and automation tools
where possible.  These actions have allowed ADC to maintain competitive
pricing and position itself to capture new business, sell new services to

                                  5



our existing customers, explore acquisition opportunities, and further
penetrate the convenience store market.  In addition, ADC remains committed
to growing its sales of non-tobacco products, which offer higher profit
margins and greater revenue stream diversity.

RETAIL HEALTH FOOD SEGMENT

AMCON's retail health food stores, which are operated as Chamberlin's Market
& Cafe ("Chamberlin's" or "CNF") and Akin's Natural Foods Market ("Akin's" or
"ANF"), offer thousands of different product selections to their customers.
Chamberlin's, which was first established in 1935, is an award-winning and
highly-acclaimed chain of six health and natural product retail stores, all
offering an extensive selection of natural supplements and herbs, baked
goods, dairy products, and organic produce.  Chamberlin's operates all of its
stores in and around Orlando, Florida.

Akin's, established in 1935, is also an award winning chain of seven health
and natural product retail stores, each offering an extensive line of natural
supplements and herbs, dairy products, and organic produce.  Akin's has
locations in Tulsa and Oklahoma City, Oklahoma; Lincoln, Nebraska;
Springfield, Missouri; and Topeka, Kansas.

The retail health food industry has experienced strong growth in recent years
driven primarily by the demand for natural products and more health conscious
consumers.  Our retail health food segment has benefited from this trend,
experiencing sales growth in many key product categories.  Management
continues to closely monitor the performance of all store locations, in
addition to identifying new locations for additional stores.

DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS
-----------------------
At September 2007, discontinued operations include the residual assets,
liabilities, and results of operations of Trinity Springs, Inc. ("TSI") and
Hawaiian Natural Water Company, Inc. ("HNWC"), which were components of the
Company's former beverage segment.

Trinity Springs, Inc. (TSI)
---------------------------
During fiscal 2006, the Company discontinued the operations of TSI, which
operated a water bottling facility in Idaho, due to recurring losses, a lack
of capital resources to sustain operations, and the litigation discussed in
Note 14 to the Consolidated Financial Statements included in Item 8 of this
Annual Report on Form 10-K.

As described in Note 14 to the Consolidated Financial Statements, AMCON and
TSI were parties to litigation with Crystal Paradise Holdings, Inc. ("CPH")
regarding the April 24, 2004 Asset Purchase Agreement ("Asset Purchase
Agreement"), under which TSI acquired certain assets from CPH.  On September
30, 2007, the Company signed a Mutual Release and Settlement Agreement (the
"Settlement Agreement") with CPH related to this litigation.  The Settlement
Agreement calls for the mutual release and settlement of all outstanding and
potential litigation and claims among and between AMCON, TSI, and CPH with
respect to the Asset Purchase Agreement and the related acquisition.


                                  6



The Settlement Agreement also restructured the Company's obligations arising
from the Asset Purchase Agreement with CPH totaling approximately $6.5
million into a new $5.0 million note payable to CPH.  The $5.0 million note
payable is due at the end of five years plus accrued interest at 5.0%.  Items
restructured into the $5.0 million note payable included CPH's minority
interest in TSI, water royalties payable to CPH, notes payable to CPH, and
accrued interest payable to CPH.  Additionally, the agreement provides CPH
with an eleven month option to purchase TSI's assets for a price equivalent
to the amount due CPH under the $5.0 million note payable, plus accrued
interest.  The TSI asset purchase option can be extended an additional seven
months at CPH's election.

No monetary exchanges between the Company and CPH were required under the
Settlement Agreement.  The Company has recorded a $1.5 million pre-tax
deferred gain in connection with the above settlement.  This deferred gain
has been classified as a component of noncurrent liabilities of discontinued
operations in the Company's September 2007 Consolidated Balance Sheet.
The deferred gain will be recognized upon the earlier of CPH's election to
exercise its TSI asset purchase option or the expiration of the asset
purchase option.

Hawaiian Natural Water Company, Inc. (HNWC)
-------------------------------------------
HNWC, which was headquartered in Pearl City, Hawaii, bottled, marketed and
distributed Hawaiian natural artesian water, purified water and other limited
production co-packaged products, in Hawaii, the mainland and foreign markets.

In November 2006, the Company sold all of the operating assets of HNWC for
approximately $3.8 million in cash plus the buyer's assumption of all
operating and capital leases.  The significant operating assets consisted of
accounts receivable, inventory, furniture and fixtures, intellectual property
and all of its bottling equipment.  In connection with the sale, the Company
has recorded a $1.6 million pre-tax gain on disposal of discontinued
operations.  HNWC remained a fully operational subsidiary of the Company
through November 19, 2006.

PRINCIPAL PRODUCTS

Cigarette sales represented between 71% and 73% of the Company's total
revenue for the fiscal years 2005 through 2007, while sales of candy,
beverages, food service, groceries, health food products, paper products,
health and beauty care products, and tobacco products accounted for between
27% and 29% of total revenue, during the same fiscal periods.

INFORMATION ON SEGMENTS

Information about our segments is presented in Note 17 to the Consolidated
Financial Statements.




                                  7






COMPETITION

There are a number of both small and large wholesale distributors operating
in the same geographical regions as ADC, resulting in a highly competitive
marketplace.  ADC is one of the largest distribution companies of its kind
operating in its market area.  ADC's principal competitors are national
wholesalers such as McLane Co., Inc. (Temple, Texas) and Core-Mark
International (San Francisco, California) and regional wholesalers such as
Eby-Brown LLP (Chicago, Illinois) and Farner-Bocken (Carroll, Iowa), along
with a host of smaller grocery and tobacco wholesalers.  Most of these
competitors generally offer a wide range of products at prices comparable to
those of ADC.  ADC seeks to distinguish itself from its competitors by
offering a higher level of technology to retailers than is offered by its
smaller competitors and a higher level of customer service than is provided
by its larger competitors.

The natural food retail industry is highly fragmented, with more than 9,000
stores operating independently or as part of small chains.  The leading
natural food chain, Whole Foods Market, continues to expand through new store
openings and acquisitions, and competes with us in many markets.
Additionally, conventional supermarkets and mass market outlets are also
increasing their emphasis on the sale of natural food products.

SEASONALITY

Sales in the wholesale distribution industry are somewhat seasonal and tend
to be higher in warm weather months as our convenience store customers
experience increased customer traffic.  The warm weather months generally
fall within the Company's third and fourth fiscal quarters.

GOVERNMENT REGULATION

The Company is subject to regulation by federal, state and local governmental
agencies, including the U.S. Department of Agriculture, the Food and Drug
Administration, the Occupational Safety and Health Administration, and U.S.
Department of Transportation.  These regulatory agencies generally impose
standards for product quality and sanitation, workplace safety, and security
and distribution policies.

The Company is also subject to state regulations related to the distribution
and sale of cigarettes and tobacco products, generally in the form of
licensing and bonding requirements.  Additionally, both federal and state
regulatory agencies have the ability to impose excise taxes on cigarette and
tobacco products. In the past several years, a number of states have
increased excise taxes on cigarettes and tobacco products.  Based on recent
legislative activity, we expect this trend to continue in addition to
possible increases in excise taxes by the federal government.





                                  8






ENVIRONMENTAL MATTERS

All the facilities and operations of the Company are subject to state and
federal environmental regulations.  The Company believes all of its real
property is in substantial compliance with regulations regarding the
discharge of toxic substances into the environment and is not aware of any
condition at its properties that could have a material adverse effect on its
financial condition or results of operations.  Further, the Company has not
been notified by any governmental authority of any potential liability or
other claim in connection with any of its properties.

EMPLOYEES

At September 2007, the Company, had 874 full-time and part-time employees in
the following areas:

                   Managerial            34
                   Administrative       105
                   Delivery             108
                   Sales & Marketing    309
                   Warehouse            318
                                      -----
                   Total Employees      874
                                      =====

All of ADC's delivery employees in the Quincy, Illinois distribution center,
representing approximately 4% of employees company-wide, are represented by
the International Association of Machinists and Aerospace Workers.  The
current labor agreement with the union is effective through December 2008.
Management believes its relations with its employees are satisfactory.

ITEM 1A.  RISK FACTORS

IN GENERAL
----------
You should carefully consider the risks described below before making an
investment decision concerning our securities.  Additional risks and
uncertainties not presently known to us or that we currently deem immaterial
may also impair our business operations.


                                  9



If any of the following risks actually materializes, our business, financial
condition or results of operations could be materially adversely affected. In
that case, the trading price of our common stock could decline substantially.
This Annual Report also contains forward-looking statements that involve
risks and uncertainties. Our actual results could differ materially from
those anticipated in the forward-looking statements as a result of a number
of factors, including the risks described below and elsewhere in this Annual
Report.  See "Forward Looking Statements" under Item 7 of this report for a
discussion of forward looking statements.

RISK FACTORS RELATED TO THE WHOLESALE BUSINESS
-----------------------------------------------

- The Wholesale Distribution of Cigarettes and Convenience Store Products Is
  Significantly Affected by Cigarette Pricing Decisions and Promotional
  Programs Offered by Cigarette Manufacturers.

We receive payments from the manufacturers of the products we distribute
including allowances, discounts, volume rebates, and other merchandising
incentives in connection with various incentive programs.  In addition, we
receive discounts from states in connection with the purchase of excise
stamps for cigarettes.  If the manufacturers or states change or discontinue
these programs or we are unable to maintain the volume of our sales, our
results of operations, business, cash flow, and financial condition could be
negatively affected.

- Increases in Fuel Prices Are Reducing Profit Margins and Adversely
  Affecting Our Business.

Increases in fuel prices have had a negative impact on our profits over the
past fiscal year.  If fuel prices remain high, and we are not able to pass on
these costs to customers, it will have an adverse impact on our results of
operations, business, cash flow, and financial condition.

- Increases in Wholesale Distribution Business Competition May Have an
  Adverse Effect on Our Business.

The wholesale distribution industry is highly competitive.  There are many
distribution companies operating in the same geographical regions as ADC.
ADC's principal competitors are national and regional wholesalers, along with
a host of smaller grocery and tobacco wholesalers.  Most of these competitors
generally offer a wide range of products at prices comparable to ADC's.  Some
of our competitors have substantial financial resources and long-standing
customer relationships.  Heightened competition may reduce our margins and
adversely affect our business. If we fail to successfully respond to these
competitive pressures or to implement our strategies effectively, we may lose
market share and our results of operations, business, cash flow, and
financial condition could suffer.

- Due to Low Margins on the Products We Distribute, Changes in General
  Economic Conditions Could Adversely Affect Our Operating Results.

We derive most of our revenues from the distribution of cigarettes, other
tobacco products, candy, snacks, fast food, grocery products, non-alcoholic
beverages, general merchandise and health and beauty care products.

                                  10


The wholesale distribution industry is characterized by high sales volumes
with relatively low profit margins.  Our non-cigarette sales are at prices
that are based on the cost of the product plus a percentage markup. As a
result, our profit levels may be negatively impacted during periods of cost
deflation for these products. Gross profit on cigarette sales are generally
fixed on a cents per carton basis.  If the cost of the cigarettes that we
purchase increases due to manufacturer price increases, our inventory costs
could rise. To the extent that product cost increases can not be passed on to
our customers, our results from operations, business, cash flow, and
financial condition could be negatively impacted.

- Our Sales Volume Is Largely Dependent upon the Distribution of Cigarette
  Products, Sales of Which Are Declining.

The distribution of cigarettes is currently a significant portion of our
business.  In fiscal 2007, approximately 71% of our revenues came from the
distribution of cigarettes.  During the same period, approximately 25% of our
gross profit was generated from cigarettes.  Due to increases in the prices
of cigarettes, restrictions on advertising and promotions by cigarette
manufacturers, increases in cigarette regulation and excise taxes, health
concerns, increased pressure from anti-tobacco groups and other factors, the
U.S. cigarette market has generally been declining, and is expected to
continue to decline based on recent American Wholesale Marketers Association
("AWMA") studies.  If this trend continues our results from operations,
business, cash flow and financial condition will be negatively impacted.

- In the United States, We Purchase Cigarettes from Manufacturers Covered by
  the Industry's Master Settlement Agreement, Which Results in Competition
  from Lower Priced Sales of Cigarettes Produced by Manufacturers Who Do Not
  Participate in the Master Settlement Agreement.

Increased selling prices and higher cigarette taxes have resulted in the
growth of deep-discount cigarette brands. Deep-discount brands are brands
generally manufactured by companies that are not original participants to the
master settlement agreement, and accordingly, do not have cost structures
burdened with master settlement agreement related payments to the same extent
as the original participating manufacturers.  Since the master settlement
agreement was signed in November 1998, the category of deep-discount brands
manufactured by smaller manufacturers or supplied by importers has grown
substantially.

As a result of purchasing premium and discount cigarettes exclusively from
manufacturers that are parties to the master settlement agreement, we are
adversely impacted by sales of brands manufactured by companies that are not
parties to the master settlement agreement.  The cigarettes subject to the
master settlement agreement that we sell have been negatively impacted by
widening price gaps in the prices between those brands and the deep-discount
brands for the past several years.  As a result, our results of operations,
business, cash flow and financial condition may be negatively impacted as
sales volumes of premium cigarettes erode.


                                  11






- We Face Competition from Illicit and Other Low Priced Cigarettes.

We face competition from the diversion into the United States market of
cigarettes intended for sale outside the United States, the sale of
counterfeit cigarettes by third parties, the sale of cigarettes in
non-taxable jurisdictions, inter-state and international smuggling of
cigarettes, increased imports of foreign low priced brands, the sale of
cigarettes by third parties over the Internet and by other means designed to
avoid collection of applicable taxes. The competitive environment has been
characterized by a continued influx of cheap products that challenge sales
of higher priced and taxed cigarettes manufactured by parties to the master
settlement agreement.  Increased sales of counterfeit cigarettes, sales by
third parties over the Internet, or sales by means to avoid the collection
of applicable taxes, could have an adverse effect on our results of
operations, business, cash flow, and financial condition.

- If the Tobacco Industry's Master Settlement Agreement Is Invalidated, or
  Tobacco Manufacturers Cannot Meet Their Obligations to Indemnify Us, We
  Could Be Subject to Substantial Litigation Liability.

In connection with the master settlement agreement, we are indemnified by the
tobacco product manufacturers from which we purchase cigarettes and other
tobacco products for liabilities arising from our sale of the tobacco
products that they supply to us. However, if litigation challenging the
validity of the master settlement agreement were to be successful and the
master settlement agreement is invalidated, we could be subject to
substantial litigation due to our sales of cigarettes and other tobacco
products, and we may not be indemnified for such costs by the tobacco product
manufacturers in the future. In addition, even if we continue to be
indemnified by cigarette manufacturers that are parties to the master
settlement agreement, future litigation awards against such cigarette
manufacturers could be so large as to eliminate the ability of the
manufacturers to satisfy their indemnification obligations.  Our results of
operations, business, cash flow and financial condition could be negatively
impacted due to increased litigation costs and potential adverse rulings
against us.

- Cigarettes and Other Tobacco Products Are Subject to Substantial Excise
  Taxes and If These Taxes Are Increased, Our Sales of Cigarettes and Other
  Tobacco Products Could Decline.

Cigarette and tobacco products are subject to substantial excise taxes in the
United States. Significant increases in cigarette-related taxes and/or fees
have been proposed or enacted and are likely to continue to be proposed or
enacted within the United States. In particular, the United States Congress
has recently proposed legislation to renew and expand the State Children's
Health Insurance Program ("SCHIP"), funded largely through significant
increases in federal excise taxes on cigarette and tobacco products.  While
the most recently passed legislation was vetoed by the President and the veto
was upheld by the House, it is likely that Congress will consider similar
legislation in the near term as the current extension of the SCHIP program
expires in November 2007.


                                  12





If such legislation passed, and included increases in federal excise taxes
on cigarette and tobacco products, it could have an adverse impact on
consumption levels and result in lower sales volumes and/or a sales shift
from higher margin premium cigarette and tobacco products to lower margin
deep-discount brands, which could materially impact the Company's
profitability.  Historically, increases in cigarette and tobacco excise taxes
have resulted in reduced consumer cigarette demand.

Additionally, higher excise taxes increase the Company's accounts receivable
and inventory carrying cost and could substantially impact our liquidity
position.  Accordingly, we may be required to obtain additional debt
financing, which we may not be able to obtain on satisfactory terms or at
all.  Our inability to prepay the excise taxes may prevent or delay our
purchase of cigarettes, which could adversely affect our ability to supply
our customers.

RISK FACTORS RELATED TO THE RETAIL BUSINESS
-------------------------------------------

- Increases in Retail Health Food Store Competition May Have an Adverse
  Effect on Our Business.

In the retail health food business, our primary competitors currently include
national natural foods supermarkets, such as Whole Foods and Wild Oats,
conventional and specialty supermarkets, regional natural foods stores, small
specialty stores and restaurants.  In addition, conventional supermarkets and
mass market outlets are increasing their emphasis on the sale of natural
products.  In addition, some traditional and specialty supermarkets are
expanding more aggressively in marketing a range of natural foods, thereby
competing directly with us for products, customers and locations.  Some of
these potential competitors may have greater financial or marketing resources
than we do and may be able to devote greater resources to sourcing, promoting
and selling their products. Increased competition may have an adverse effect
on our results of operations, business, cash flow, and financial condition as
the result of lower sales, lower gross profits and/or greater operating costs
such as marketing.

- Part of Our Strategy Is to Expand Our Retail Health Food Business Through
  The Opening of New Stores, If We Are Unsuccessful it May Have an Adverse
  Effect on Our Business.

Our expansion strategy is dependent on finding suitable locations, and we
face intense competition from other retailers for such sites. We also need to
be able to open new stores timely and operate them successfully.  In
addition, our success is dependant on our ability to hire, train and
integrate new qualified team members.  Our success is also dependent on our
ability to adapt our distribution, management information and other operating
systems to adequately supply products to new stores at competitive prices so
that we can operate the stores in a successful and profitable manner.  If we
are not able to find and open new store locations and to close poor
performing stores, this will have a material adverse impact on our results of
operations, business, cash flow, and financial condition.


                                  13




- Changes in the Availability of Quality Natural and Organic Products Could
  Impact Our Business.

There is no assurance that quality natural and organic products including
dietary supplements, fresh and processed foods and vitamins will be available
to meet our future needs. If conventional supermarkets increase their natural
and organic product offerings or if new laws require the reformulation of
certain products to meet tougher standards, the supply of these products may
be constrained. Any significant disruption in the supply of quality natural
and organic products could have a materially adverse impact on our overall
sales and cost of goods.

- Perishable Food Product Losses Could Materially Impact Our Results.

We believe our stores more heavily emphasize perishable products than
conventional supermarket stores. The Company's emphasis on perishable
products may result in significant product inventory losses in the event of
extended power outages, natural disasters or other catastrophic occurrences.

RISK FACTORS RELATED TO THE OVERALL BUSINESS
---------------------------------------------

- Capital Needed for Expansion May Not Be Available.

The acquisition of existing stores, the opening of new retail stores, and the
development of new production and distribution facilities requires
significant amounts of capital. In the past, our growth has been funded
primarily through proceeds from bank debt, private placements of equity and
debt and internally generated cash flow.  These and other sources of capital
may not be available to us in the future, which could impair our ability to
further expand our business.

- Restrictive Covenants in Our Revolving Credit Facility May Restrict Our
  Ability to React to Changes in Our Business or Industry Because They
  Restrict Our Ability to Obtain Additional Financing.

Our revolving credit facility imposes restrictions on us that could increase
our vulnerability to general adverse economic and Industry conditions by
limiting our flexibility in planning for and reacting to changes in our
business and Industry. Specifically, these restrictions limit our ability,
among other things, to: incur additional indebtedness, pay dividends and make
distributions, issue stock of subsidiaries, make investments, repurchase
stock, create liens, enter into transactions with affiliates, merge or
consolidate, or transfer and sell our assets.

- Failure to Meet Restrictive Covenants in Our Revolving Credit Facility
  Could Result in Acceleration of the Facility and We May not be Able to
  Find Alternative Financing.

Under our credit facility, we are required to meet certain financial ratios
and tests. Our ability to comply with these covenants may be affected by
factors beyond our control.  If we breach any of these covenants
or restrictions, it could result in an event of default under our revolving
credit facility, which would permit our lenders to declare all amounts


                                  14


outstanding thereunder to be immediately due and payable, and our lenders
under our revolving credit facility could terminate their commitments to make
further extensions of credit under our revolving credit facility.

- Downturns in Economic Conditions Negatively Impacts Consumer Spending
  Resulting in a Reduction of Discretionary Spending for Items such as Snack
  Food, Cigarettes, and Health Foods.

Our results of operations and financial condition are particularly sensitive
to changes in overall economic conditions that impact consumer spending,
including discretionary spending. Future economic conditions affecting
disposable consumer income such as employment levels, business conditions,
interest rates and tax rates could reduce consumer spending or cause
consumers to shift their spending to our competitors. A general reduction in
the level of discretionary spending or shifts in consumer discretionary
spending to our competitors could adversely affect our growth and
profitability.

- We May Not Be Able to Obtain Capital or Borrow Funds to Provide Us with
  Sufficient Liquidity and Capital Resources Necessary to Meet Our Future
  Financial Obligations.

We expect that our principal sources of funds will be cash generated from our
operations and financial condition and, if necessary, borrowings under our
revolving credit facility.  However, these sources may not provide us with
sufficient liquidity and capital resources required to meet our future
financial obligations, or to provide funds for our working capital, capital
expenditures and other needs for the foreseeable future. We may require
additional equity or debt financing to meet our working capital requirements
or to fund our capital expenditures.  We may not be able to obtain financing
on terms satisfactory to us, or at all.

- We Depend on Relatively Few Suppliers for a Large Portion of Our Products,
  and Any Interruptions in the Supply of the Products That We Distribute
  Could Adversely Affect Our Results of Operations and Financial Condition.

We do not have any long-term contracts with our suppliers committing them to
provide products to us. Although our purchasing volume can provide leverage
when dealing with suppliers, suppliers may not provide the products we
distribute in the quantities we request or on favorable terms. Because we do
not control the actual production of the products we distribute, we are also
subject to delays caused by interruption in production based on conditions
outside our control. These conditions include job actions or strikes by
employees of suppliers, inclement weather, transportation interruptions, and
natural disasters or other catastrophic events. Our inability to obtain
adequate supplies of the products we distribute as a result of any of the
foregoing factors or otherwise, could cause us to fail to meet our
obligations to our customers.




                                  15







- We May Be Subject to Product Liability Claims Which Could Adversely Affect
  Our Business.

AMCON, as with other distributors of food and consumer products, faces the
risk of exposure to product liability claims in the event that the use of
products sold by us causes injury or illness. With respect to product
liability claims, we believe that we have sufficient liability insurance
coverage and indemnities from manufacturers. However, product liability
insurance may not continue to be available at a reasonable cost, or, if
available, may not be adequate to cover all of our liabilities. We generally
seek contractual indemnification and insurance coverage from parties
supplying the products we distribute, but this indemnification or insurance
coverage is limited, as a practical matter, to the creditworthiness of the
indemnifying party and the insured limits of any insurance provided by
suppliers. If we do not have adequate insurance or if contractual
indemnification is not available or if the counterparty can not fulfill its
indemnification obligation, product liability relating to defective products
could materially adversely impact our results of operations, business, cash
flow and financial condition.

- We Depend on Our Senior Management and Key Personnel.

We substantially depend on the continued services and performance of our
senior management and other key personnel, particularly William F. Wright,
Chairman of the Board, Christopher H. Atayan, AMCON's Chief Executive Officer
and Vice Chairman of the Board, Kathleen M. Evans, the Company's President,
and Eric J. Hinkefent, the President of Health Food Associates, Inc. and
Chamberlin's Natural Foods, Inc.  While we maintain key person life insurance
policies and have employment agreements with certain of these individuals,
the loss of the services of any of our executive officers or key employees
could harm our business.

- We Operate in a Competitive Labor Market and a Number of Our Employees
  Are Covered by Collective Bargaining Agreements.

We compete with other businesses in each of our markets with respect to
attracting and retaining qualified employees. A shortage of qualified
employees could require us to enhance our wage and benefits packages in order
to compete effectively in the hiring and retention of qualified employees or
to hire more expensive temporary employees.

In addition, at September 2007 approximately 4%, or approximately 36, of our
employees are covered by a collective bargaining agreement with a labor
organization, which expires December 2008.  We may not be able to renew our
respective collective bargaining agreement on favorable terms.  Employees at
other facilities may try to unionize.  We may not be able to recover labor
cost increases through increased prices charged to customers or suffer
business interruptions as a result of strikes or other work stoppages.




                                  16







- We Are Subject to Significant Governmental Regulation and If We Are Unable
  to Comply with Regulations That Affect Our Business or If There Are
  Substantial Changes in These Regulations, Our Business Could Be Adversely
  Affected.

As a distributor of food products, we are subject to the regulation by the
U.S. Food and Drug Administration ("FDA").  Our operations are also subject
to regulation by the Occupational Safety and Health Administration ("OSHA"),
the Department of Transportation and other federal, state and local agencies.
Each of these regulatory authorities have broad administrative powers with
respect to our operations. If we fail to adequately comply with government
regulations or regulations become more stringent, we could experience
increased inspections, regulatory authorities could take remedial action
including imposing fines or shutting down our operations or we could be
subject to increased compliance costs. If any of these events were to occur,
our results of operations, business, cash flow, and financial condition would
be adversely affected.

We cannot predict the impact that future laws, regulations, interpretations
or applications, the effect of additional government regulations or
administrative orders, when and if promulgated, or disparate federal, state
and local regulatory schemes would have on our business in the future. They
could, however, require the reformulation of certain products to meet new
standards, the recall or discontinuance of certain products not able to be
reformulated, additional record keeping, expanded documentation of the
properties of certain products, expanded or different labeling and/or
scientific substantiation. Any or all of such requirements could have an
adverse effect on our results of operations, business, cash flow, and
financial condition.

RISK FACTORS RELATED TO OUR COMMON STOCK
-----------------------------------------

- The Company Has Very Few Shareholders of Record And, If this Number Drops
  below 300, the Company Will No Longer Be Obligated to Report under the
  Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and in Such Case We May Be Delisted from
  the American Stock Exchange Reducing the Ability of Investors to Trade in
  Our Common Stock.

If the number of record owners (including direct participants in the
Depository Trust Company) of our common stock is less than 300, our
obligations to file reports under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is
suspended.  If we take advantage of this right we will likely reduce
administrative costs of complying with public company rules, but periodic
and current information updates about the Company will not be available to
investors.  In addition, the common stock of the Company would be removed
from listing on the American Stock Exchange.  This would likely impact an
investors' ability to trade in our common stock.

- In Relation to the Size of Our Company We Incur Significant Costs as a
  Result of Being a Public Company.

As a public company, we incur significant accounting, legal, governance,
compliance and other expenses that private companies do not incur. In
addition, the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 and the rules subsequently

                                  17



implemented by the Securities and Exchange Commission and the American Stock
Exchange, have required changes in corporate governance practices of public
companies. These rules and regulations increase our legal, audit and
financial compliance costs and make some activities more time-consuming and
costly. For example, as a result of being a public company, we are required
to maintain additional board committees and formalize our internal control
over financial reporting and disclosure controls and procedures. In addition,
we incur additional costs associated with our public company reporting
requirements.  These rules and regulations also make it more difficult and
more expensive for us to obtain director and officer liability insurance and
we may be required to accept reduced policy limits and coverage or incur
substantially higher costs to obtain the same or similar coverage. As a
result, it may be more difficult for us to attract and retain qualified
persons to serve on our board of directors or as executive officers.

- We Have Various Mechanisms in Place to Discourage Takeover Attempts, Which
  May Reduce or Eliminate Our Stockholders' Ability to Sell Their Shares for
  a Premium in a Change of Control Transaction.

Various provisions of our bylaws and of corporate law may discourage, delay
or prevent a change in control or takeover attempt of our company by a third
party that is opposed to by our management and board of directors.  These
anti-takeover provisions could substantially impede the ability of public
stockholders to benefit from a change of control or change in our management
and board of directors. These provisions include:

     -classification of our directors into three classes with respect to the
      time for which they hold office;

     -supermajority voting requirements to amend the provision in our
      certificate of incorporation providing for the classification of our
      directors into three such classes;

     -non-cumulative voting for directors;

     -control by our board of directors of the size of our board of
      directors;

     -limitations on the ability of stockholders to call special meetings of
      stockholders; and

     -advance notice requirements for nominations of candidates for election
      to our board of directors or for proposing matters that can be acted
      upon by our stockholders at stockholder meetings.

- Failure to Regain Compliance with American Stock Exchange Listing
  Standards Could Have a Negative Effect on the Trading Price of Our Stock
  and Would likely Adversely Impact Our Investors' Ability to Trade in Our
  Common Stock

In fiscal 2007, the Company was notified by the American Stock Exchange
(AMEX) that it was not in compliance with Section 1003(a)(ii)of the AMEX
Company Guide regarding shareholders' equity of less than $4,000,000, and
losses from continuing operations and/or net losses in three of its four most
recent fiscal years.  In order to maintain its AMEX listing, the Company
submitted a plan outlining steps to regain compliance with the AMEX's

                                  18


continued listing standards by March 11, 2008.  As of September 30, 2007, the
Company's shareholders' equity of $5.5 million exceeded the threshold set
forth by Section 1003(a)(ii) of the AMEX Company Guide.  After maintaining
the required shareholders' equity for two successive quarters, the Company
will have completed its comprehensive plan previously submitted to the AMEX.

ITEM 7.  MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
         RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Overview
--------
The following discussion should be read in conjunction with the Consolidated
Financial Statements and Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements,
under Item 8, and other information in this report, including Critical
Accounting Policies and Cautionary Information included at the end of this
Item 7. The following discussion and analysis includes the results of
operations for our continuing operations for the twelve month period ended
September 30 in fiscal 2007, 2006 and 2005.  During fiscal 2005, the Company
changed its reporting period from a 52-53 week year to a calendar month
reporting period ending on September 30.  As a result of this change, fiscal
2005 was comprised of 53 weeks as compared to 52 weeks in fiscal 2007 and
2006.

A separate discussion of our discontinued operations has been presented below
under the caption "Discontinued Operations (Fiscal 2005 - 2007)" in this
Item 7.  Accordingly, the sales, gross profit (loss), selling, general and
administrative, depreciation and amortization, direct interest, other
expenses and income tax benefit for our discontinued operations are not a
component of our analysis of continuing operations.  For more information
regarding our businesses, see Item 1 "Business" of this Annual Report on
Form 10-K.

Strategic Initiatives
---------------------
The Company has set out a number of key initiatives in conjunction
with its long-term strategic plan to improve profitability and build
shareholder value.  The primary elements of these strategic initiatives
include:

     -  refocusing resources to sustain and grow our two core business
        segments - wholesale distribution and retail health food;
     -  improve the Company's liquidity position through debt reduction
     -  aggressively manage the Company's cost structure; and
     -  capitalize on acquisition opportunities

While management can give no assurances, these strategic initiatives are
designed to improve profitability and strengthen the Company's ability to
compete and grow its two core businesses on a long-term basis.

Significant Events For Fiscal 2007

Operational
-----------
   - In September 2007, the Company fully settled all residual litigation
     among and between AMCON, TSI, and Crystal Paradise Holdings, Inc.
     ("CPH") regarding TSI's fiscal 2004 purchase of assets from CPH.  In
     connection with this settlement, the Company recorded a $1.5 million
     deferred gain during the fourth quarter of fiscal 2007.  As part of the
     agreement, CPH has received an option to purchase TSI's assets from the
     Company for a period of up to eighteen months.  See further discussion
     in Item 1 and Note 14 to the Consolidated Financial Statements under

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS - CONTINUING OPERATIONS

SALES:

Changes in sales are driven by two primary components:

      (i)  changes to selling prices, which are largely controlled by
           our product suppliers, and excise taxes imposed on
           cigarettes and tobacco products by various states; and

      (ii) changes 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.

FISCAL YEAR 2007 VERSUS FISCAL YEAR 2006 - Continuing Operations
----------------------------------------------------------------
Sales for fiscal 2007 increased approximately $14.1 million, or 1.7%, as
compared to fiscal 2006.  Sales are reported net of costs associated with
sales incentives provided to retailers, which totaled $15.7 million and $15.5
million for fiscal 2007 and 2006, respectively.  Sales increases by business
segment are as follows (dollars in millions):

</TABLE>

Sales from our wholesale distribution segment increased $13.0 million in
fiscal 2007 as compared to fiscal 2006.  Of this increase, $2.0 million
related to an increase in cigarette sales and $11.0 million related to an
increase in tobacco, confectionary, food service, and other product sales.

Significant items impacting fiscal 2007 sales included the following items.
During fiscal 2007, certain states imposed sizable increases in the excise
taxes levied on cigarettes.  As excise taxes are passed on to our customers,
the associated increase in our prices had the impact of increasing our fiscal
2007 sales by approximately $15.6 million as compared to fiscal 2006.  The
increase in excise taxes also had the impact of decreasing the demand for
cigarettes in the related states and accordingly reduced sales by
approximately $19.8 million.

Also impacting fiscal 2007 cigarette sales were price increases implemented
by major cigarette manufacturers during the fiscal year. These price
increases had the effect of increasing fiscal 2007 sales by approximately
$12.4 million as compared to fiscal 2006.  The remaining change in cigarette
sales as compared to fiscal 2006 was primarily attributable to a 0.9%
decrease in cigarette carton volumes in states not impacted by excise tax
increases.  The $11.0 million increase in tobacco, confectionary, food
service and other product sales was primarily the result of price increases
and changes in sales volumes.

Sales from our retail health food segment increased $1.1 million, or 2.8%,
during fiscal 2007 as compared to fiscal 2006.  This increase was
attributable to overall growth in same store sales, primarily within our
vitamin and supplements product categories.  Our retail health food segment
continues to benefit from the general increase in demand for natural food
products combined with the Company's continued marketing efforts to grow its
customer base.

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 the gross profit of other
entities which do include such costs.  Some entities may classify such costs
as a component of cost of sales.  Cost of sales, a component used in
determining gross profit, for our wholesale and retail segments includes the
cost of products purchased from manufacturers, less incentives that we
receive which are netted against such costs.

Gross profit by business segment for the fiscal years ended September 2007
and September 2006 are as follows (dollars in millions):

Gross profit for fiscal 2007 increased approximately $3.8 million, or 6.5%
as compared to fiscal 2006, while gross profit as a percent of sales
increased to 7.5% as compared to 7.2% in fiscal 2006.

During fiscal 2007, gross profit in our wholesale distribution segment
increased approximately $3.0 million, or 6.6% as compared to fiscal 2006.
Increasing wholesale segment gross profit during fiscal 2007 was a $1.7
million benefit resulting from the impact of excise tax increases. The
remaining change in our wholesale distribution segment gross profit was
primarily the result of fluctuations in product mix sold, promotional
allowances received from manufacturers, price increases within both our
cigarette and non-cigarette product categories, and changes in unit volumes
sold.

Gross profit for the retail health food segment increased approximately
$0.8 million in fiscal 2007 as compared to fiscal 2006.  Of this increase,
approximately $0.4 million related to higher sales volumes, with the
remaining change primarily resulting from improved sales mix and improved
inventory shrink and throw-out costs.


                                  29




OPERATING EXPENSE

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, warehousing costs and cost 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, insurance and
professional fees.

Total operating expenses decreased approximately $0.9 million in fiscal 2007,
or 1.6%, as compared to fiscal 2006.  The decrease in operating costs was
primarily related to a $0.8 million reduction in professional fees, with the
remaining decrease primarily resulting from lower insurance and bad debt
expense, partially offset by higher compensation costs.

INTEREST EXPENSE

Interest expense for fiscal 2007 decreased slightly from fiscal 2006.
The Company's variable rate debt primarily consists of borrowing on its
Facility, which bears interest at the prime interest rate.  During fiscal
2007, the Company's average borrowing rate on variable rate debt increased
approximately 0.69% and average borrowings on variable rate debt decreased
approximately $2.5 million, as compared to fiscal 2006.

OTHER

The Company's effective income tax rate was 38.4% in fiscal 2007 as compared
to 26.1% in fiscal 2006.  The increase in the effective tax rate was
primarily attributable to state net operating losses recorded in fiscal 2006,
which reduced fiscal 2006 income tax expense and the related effective tax
rate.

DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS (Fiscal 2005 - 2007)

For the fiscal years 2007, 2006 and 2005, HNWC and TSI have been reflected in
the Company's Consolidated Financial Statements as components of discontinued
operations.  The Beverage Group, Inc. ("TBG") is also included in
discontinued operations for the fiscal year 2005 and the first two quarters
of fiscal 2006.  TBG was a component of the Company's former beverage
segment, which was closed in March 2005.  TBG's final wind-down was completed
in April 2006 at which time its residual liabilities were classified to
continuing operations.

As previously discussed in Item 1, in September 2007 the Company settled all
outstanding litigation among and between AMCON, TSI and CPH, resulting in a
$1.5 million deferred gain for fiscal 2007, which has been classified as a
component of noncurrent liabilities of discontinued operations in the
Company's Consolidated Balance Sheet. The deferred gain will be recognized
upon the earlier of CPH's election to exercise its TSI asset purchase option
or the expiration of the asset purchase option.  During fiscal 2007, the
Company also sold the assets of HNWC resulting in a $1.6 million pre-tax
gain.
                                  30



Earnings from discontinued operations increased approximately $2.7 million
from fiscal 2006 to fiscal 2007.  This change primarily resulted from HNWC's
asset sale in November 2006, which resulted in a $1.6 million pre-tax gain.
Additionally, the sale of HNWC in November 2006 and the closure of TSI's
operations in March 2006, prevented further operating losses in fiscal 2007
as compared to fiscal 2006.

Losses from discontinued operations decreased approximately $9.5 million from
fiscal 2005 to fiscal 2006.  This change was primarily the result of
impairment charges incurred during fiscal 2005, which totaled $8.9 million.
There were no such impairment charges incurred in discontinued operations
during fiscal 2006.  Additionally, TSI's closure in March 2006 stemmed
further operating losses through the remainder of fiscal 2006.

A summary of discontinued operations is as follows:

Sales in our wholesale distribution segment increased $2.7 million during
fiscal 2006 as compared to fiscal 2005.  This increase in sales included a
$1.5 million decrease in cigarette sales and a $4.2 million increase in the
sales of our tobacco, confectionary and other product categories.  Of the
decrease in cigarette sales, $10.4 million was a result of the change in our
monthly reporting period, which added an extra week of sales in fiscal 2005
as compared to fiscal 2006, and $5.6 million was the result of a 1.3%
decrease in the volume of carton shipments (excluding the extra week).  These
decreases in cigarette sales were offset by a $8.5 million increase in sales
due to higher excise taxes imposed by certain states and a $6.0 million
benefit to sales attributable to price increases implemented by major
cigarette manufacturers.

Sales from our retail health food segment increased $2.2 million, or 6.4%,
during fiscal 2006 when compared to fiscal 2005.  Of this sales increase,
$2.6 million was attributable to sales growth in same store sales, primarily
within our grocery and supplements product categories.  This increase in
sales volume was partially offset by a $0.4 million reduction in sales due to
an extra week of sales in the fiscal 2005, resulting from the Company's
change in reporting periods.  The retail health food segment experienced
strong growth during fiscal 2006 largely due to an increase in the demand for
natural food products and combined with the Company's continued marketing
efforts to grow its customer base.

Gross profit for fiscal 2006 decreased approximately $0.9 million, or 1.5%,
as compared to fiscal 2005.  Gross profit as a percentage of sales decreased
slightly from 7.3% in fiscal 2005 to 7.2% in fiscal 2006.

Gross profit from our wholesale distribution segment decreased approximately
$1.8 million from fiscal 2005 to fiscal 2006.  Items decreasing gross profits
during fiscal 2006 were a $2.2 million reduction in gross profit related to a
decrease in cigarette volumes sold, a $0.5 million reduction in incentive
payments received from cigarette and non-cigarette vendors, and a $0.6
million decrease in gross profit attributable to an extra week of operations
in fiscal 2005 as compared to fiscal 2006.  These items were partially offset
by a $1.4 million increase in gross profit resulting from higher sales in our
tobacco, confectionary and other product categories.

Gross profit for the retail health food segment increased approximately
$0.9 million in fiscal 2006 as compared to fiscal 2005.  Of this increase,
$0.1 million related to improved management of inventory and throw-out costs,
$0.2 million was due to the extra week of operations in fiscal 2005, and
$0.6 million was related to changes in sales mix and volume growth.

OPERATING EXPENSE

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, warehousing costs and cost 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, insurance and
professional fees.

Total operating expenses decreased approximately $3.8 million in fiscal 2006,
or 6.6%, from fiscal 2005.  The decrease in operating expense from fiscal
2005 was primarily attributable to a $4.2 reduction in intangible impairment
charges incurred during fiscal 2005. The Company incurred no such impairment
charges in fiscal 2006.  Other significant items impacting operating expenses
during fiscal 2006 included higher fuel and professional services expenses of
$0.7 million and $0.3 million, respectively, and a $0.6 million reduction in
workers compensation expense, as compared to fiscal 2005.



                                  33




INTEREST EXPENSE

Interest expense for fiscal 2006 increased 0.6 million, or 15.3%, as compared
to fiscal 2005.  This increase was primarily related to an increase in the
Company's average variable rate borrowings, the impact of the expiration of
an interest rate swap in fiscal 2006 which had the effect of converting
$10.0 million in variable rate borrowings under the Company's credit facility
to a fixed borrowing rate of 4.87%, and increases in the prime interest rate,
which is the rate at which the Company primarily borrows.  On average, the
Company's borrowing rates on variable rate debt were 1.71% higher and the
average borrowings on variable rate debt were $3.5 million higher in fiscal
2006 as compared to fiscal 2005.

OTHER

During fiscal 2005, the Company allocated $0.1 million in losses, net of tax,
to "Minority interest", which was related to a 15% minority ownership
interest in the Company's TSI subsidiary.  After this allocation, the 15%
minority ownership interest in TSI had been reduced to zero resulting from
cumulative TSI loss allocations.  The minority shareholders provided no
additional funding to TSI.  Accordingly, no further allocations of losses to
minority shareholders were made by the Company in fiscal 2006 or thereafter.

The Company's effective income tax rate was 26.1% in fiscal 2006.  The change
in effective tax rates from fiscal 2005 was primarily attributable to
valuation allowances placed on state net operating losses in fiscal 2005,
which reduced the income tax benefit and related effective tax rate in that
fiscal year.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
--------------------------------

OVERVIEW
--------
Operating Activities.  The Company requires cash to pay operating expenses,
purchase inventory and make capital investments.  In general, the Company
finances these cash needs from the cash flow generated by its operating
activities, credit facility borrowings and preferred stock issuances, as
necessary.  During fiscal 2007, the Company generated cash of approximately
$8.7 million from operating activities.  The cash generated was primarily the
result of net income generated, changes in deferred income tax balances, and
adjustments for depreciation, partially offset by a pay down of accounts
payable and accrued expenses related to discontinued operations.

Our variability in cash flows from operating activities is heavily dependent
on the timing of inventory purchases and seasonal fluctuations.  For example,
periodically we have inventory "buy-in" opportunities which offer more
favorable pricing terms.  As a result, we may have to hold inventory for a
period longer than the payment terms.  This generates a cash outflow from
operating activities which we expect to reverse in later periods.
Additionally, during the warm weather months, which is our peak time of
operations, we generally carry higher amounts of inventory to ensure high
fill rates and maintain customer satisfaction.


                                  34



Investing Activities.  The Company generated approximately $3.6 million in
cash from investing activities during fiscal 2007.  Of the cash generated,
approximately $3.8 million resulted from the sale of HNWC's assets in
November 2006 and $0.2 million related to the sale of TSI's distribution
warehouse.  Both of these items were included as components of our
discontinued operations.  These items were partially offset by $0.5 million
in capital expenditures less $0.1 million in cash proceeds received from the
sale of property, plant and equipment.

Financing Activities.  The Company used net cash of $12.0 million for
financing activities during fiscal 2007.  Of this net change in cash, the
Company used cash of $10.0 million for principal payments on its bank credit
facility, $1.5 million for principal payments on long-term debt for both
continuing and discontinued operations, $0.1 million related to debt issuance
costs, and $0.4 million for the payment of preferred stock dividend payments.

Cash on Hand/Working Capital.  As of September 2007, the Company had cash on
hand of $0.7 million and working capital (current assets less current
liabilities) of $34.9 million.  This compares to cash on hand of $0.5 million
and working capital of $32.6 million as of September 2006.

/1/ Represents estimated interest payments on long-term debt, capital leases, and the
    Facility. Certain obligations contain variable interest rates.  For illustrative
    purposes, the Company has projected future interest payments assuming that
    interest rates will remain unchanged.

/2/ Includes Term Note A and Term Note B.

</Table>

CREDIT AGREEMENT
----------------
The Company's primary source of borrowing for liquidity purposes is its
revolving credit facility with LaSalle Bank (the "Facility"). The significant
terms of the Facility at September 2007 include:

   - A $55.0 million revolving credit limit, plus the outstanding balances
     on two term notes ("Term Note A" and "Term Note B") which totaled
     approximately $0.9 million at September 2007 for a total credit
     facility limit of $55.9 million at September 2007.

   - Bears interest at the bank's prime interest rate, except for Term Note B
     which bears interest at the bank's prime rate plus 2%.

   - Maturity and expiration dates for the Facility and Term Note A of
     April 2009 and March 2008 for Term Note B.

   - 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 borrowings.

   - A prepayment penalty of one percent (1%) of the prepayment loan limit of
     $55.0 million if prepayment occurs on or before April 30, 2008.

   - Provides that the Company may not pay dividends on its common stock in
     excess of $0.72 per share on an annual basis.

The Facility also includes quarterly debt service and cumulative earnings
before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization ("EBITDA") financial
covenants.  Beginning with the fiscal quarter ended September 30, 2007, the
Company must maintain a minimum debt service ratio of 1.0 to 1.0, as measured
by the twelve month period then ended.

The cumulative minimum EBITDA requirements are as follows:

(a) $1,000,000 for the three months ending December 31, 2007 and
     December 31, 2008 and;
(b) $2,000,000 for the six months ending March 31, 2008, and
     March 31, 2009 and;
(c) $4,500,000 for the nine months ending June 30, 2008 and;
(d) $7,000,000 for the twelve months ending September 30, 2007
     and September 30, 2008.

The Company was in compliance with the required debt service and minimum
EBITDA covenants at September 30, 2007.


                                  36



The Company's maximum available credit limit of the revolving portion of the
Facility was $49.3 million at September 2007, 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.  At September 2007, the outstanding balance on the revolving portion
of the Facility was $37.9 million.  The Facility bears interest at a variable
rate equal to the bank's prime rate, which was 7.75% at September 2007.
Based on our collateral and loan limits as defined by the Facility agreement,
the Company's excess availability under the Facility at September 2007 was
approximately $11.4 million.

During fiscal 2007, our peak borrowings under the Facility were $52.6 million
and our average borrowings and average availability were $46.1 and $4.9
million, respectively.  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 collateralized assets.

As a component of the credit agreement, the Company has two term notes,
Term Note A and Term Note B, with LaSalle Bank.  Term Note A bears interest
at the bank's prime rate (7.75% at September 2007) and is payable in monthly
installments of $16,333.  Term Note B bears interest at the bank's prime rate
plus 2% (9.75% at September 2007) and is payable in monthly installments of
$100,000.  The outstanding balances on Term Note A and Term Note B were $0.6
million and $0.3 million, respectively, as of September 2007.

The Company's Chairman has personally guaranteed repayment of the Facility
and the term loans.  However, the amount of his guaranty is capped at $10.0
million and is automatically reduced by the amount of the repayment on Term
Note B, which resulted in the guaranteed principal outstanding being reduced
to approximately $5.4 million as of September 2007.  AMCON pays 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, Akin's, HNWC and TSI.

The Company's Chairman has also personally guaranteed a note payable issued
in conjunction with the Television Events and Marketing, Inc. ("TEAM")
litigation settlement as discussed in Note 14 to the Consolidated Financial
Statements under Item 8.  The Company pays the Chairman an annual fee equal
to 2% of the guaranteed principal in return for the personal guarantee.  The
amount guaranteed in connection with this settlement at September 2007 was
approximately $0.7 million.

TSI Financing
-------------
As discussed more fully in Note 14 to the Consolidated Financial Statements
under Item 8, in September 2007 AMCON and TSI settled all litigation among
and between Crystal Paradise Holdings, Inc. ("CPH") regarding an April 24,
2004 Asset Purchase Agreement ("Asset Purchase Agreement"), whereby TSI
acquired certain assets from CPH.

The settlement also restructured the Company's obligations arising from the
Asset Purchase Agreement with CPH totaling approximately $6.5 million into a
new $5.0 million note payable to CPH.  The $5.0 million note payable is due
at the end of five years plus accrued interest at 5.0%.  Items restructured
into the $5.0 million note payable included CPH's minority interest in TSI,

                                  37


water royalties payable to CPH, notes payable to CPH, and accrued interest
payable to CPH.  Additionally, the agreement provides CPH with an eleven
month option to purchase TSI's assets for a price equivalent to the amount
due CPH under the $5.0 million note payable, plus accrued interest.  The TSI
asset purchase option can be extended an additional seven months at CPH's
election.

No monetary exchanges between the Company and CPH were required under the
Settlement Agreement.  The Company has recorded a $1.5 million pre-tax
deferred gain in connection with the above settlement.  This deferred gain
has been classified as a component of noncurrent liabilities of discontinued
operations in the Company's September 2007 Consolidated Balance Sheet.
The deferred gain will be recognized upon the earlier of CPH's election to
exercise its TSI asset purchase option or the expiration of the asset
purchase option.

With the final settlement of the CPH litigation, the Company does not expect
its future cash flows to be significantly impacted by future TSI related
litigation.

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 Bank ("M&I"), 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.

Dividend Payments
-----------------
The Company does not pay dividends on its common stock but does periodically
reevaluate this policy based on the funding requirements necessary to finance
operations and future growth.  The Company's revolving credit facility
provides that it may not pay dividends on its common shares in excess of
$0.72 per common share on an annual basis.

OTHER
-----
The Company has several capital leases for office and warehouse equipment.
At September 2007, the outstanding balances on the capital leases totaled
approximately $0.1 million.

AMCON has issued a letter of credit for $1.0 million to its workers'
compensation insurance carrier as part of its self-insured loss control
program.  The letter of credit was reduced to approximately $0.9 million
subsequent to September 2007.


                                  38






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

Other Matters
-------------
Certain Accounting Considerations

During fiscal 2007, Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") Bulletin No.
108, "Considering the Effects of Prior Year Misstatements when Quantifying
Misstatements in Current Year Financial Statements" ("SAB 108") became
effective for the Company.  SAB 108 requires that registrants quantify errors
using both a balance sheet approach and an income statement approach and then
evaluate whether either approach results in a misstated amount that, when all
relevant quantitative and qualitative factors are considered, is material.
The adoption of this bulletin did not have a material effect on the Company's
financial position or results of operations.

The Company is currently evaluating the impact of implementing the following
new accounting standards:

On July 13, 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued
FASB Interpretation No. 48, "Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes, and
Related Implementation Issues" ("FIN 48"). FIN 48 clarifies the accounting
for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in a Company's financial
statements in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standard No.
109, "Accounting for Income Taxes" ("SFAS 109"). FIN 48 prescribes a
recognition threshold and measurement attribute for a tax position taken or
expected to be taken in a tax return.  FIN 48 also provides guidance on
derecognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim
periods, disclosure, and transition.  FIN 48 is effective for fiscal years
beginning after December 15, 2006 (the first fiscal quarter of 2008 for the
Company).  We do not believe that the cumulative effect of adopting FIN 48
will have a material impact on the Company's Consolidated Financial
Statements.

In September 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 157, "Fair Value Measurements"
("SFAS No. 157").  SFAS No. 157 clarifies the principle that fair value
should be based on the assumptions market participants would use when pricing
an asset or liability and establishes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes
the information used to develop those assumptions.  Under the standard, fair
value measurements would be separately disclosed by level within the fair
value hierarchy.  SFAS 157 is effective in fiscal 2008 for the Company.

In February 2007, FASB issued SFAS No. 159, "The Fair Value Option for
Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities-Including an amendment of FASB
Statement No. 115" ("SFAS 159").  SFAS 159 expands the use of fair value
accounting but does not affect existing standards which require assets and
liabilities to be carried at fair value.  Under SFAS 159, a company may elect
to use fair value to measure accounts and loans receivable, available-for-
sale and held-to-maturity securities, equity method investments, accounts
payable, guarantees, issued debt and other eligible financial instruments.
SFAS 159 is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007
(fiscal 2009 for the Company).


                                  39


In March 2007, the FASB issued Emerging Issues Task Force Issue No. 06-10
"Accounting for Collateral Assignment Split-Dollar Life Insurance Agreements"
(EITF 06-10).  EITF 06-10 provides guidance for determining a liability for
the postretirement benefit obligation as well as recognition and measurement
of the associated asset on the basis of the terms of the collateral
assignment agreement.  EITF 06-10 is effective for fiscal years beginning
after December 15, 2007 (fiscal 2009 for the Company).

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
below and have not changed during fiscal 2007.

ALLOWANCE FOR DOUBTFUL ACCOUNTS

NATURE OF ESTIMATES REQUIRED.  The allowance for doubtful accounts represents
our estimate of uncollectible accounts receivable at the balance sheet date.
We monitor our credit exposure on a weekly basis and assess the adequacy of
our allowance for doubtful accounts on a quarterly basis.  Because credit
losses can vary significantly over time, estimating the required allowance
requires a number of assumptions that are uncertain.

ASSUMPTIONS AND APPROACH USED.  We estimate our required allowance for
doubtful accounts using the following key assumptions.
    - Historical collections - Represented as the amount of historical
      uncollectible accounts as a percent of total accounts
      receivable.

    - Specific credit exposure on certain accounts - Identified based
      on management's review of the accounts receivable portfolio
      and taking into account the financial wherewithal of particular
      customers that management deems to have a higher risk of
      collection.

SENSITIVITY ANALYSIS.  We believe that our current level of allowance for
doubtful accounts is adequate at September 2007 and that our credit exposure
is very low compared with the high volume of sales and the nature of our
Industry in which collections are generally made quickly.  However, for every
1% percent of receivables deemed to require an additional reserve at
September 2007, the impact on the statement of operations would be to
increase selling, general and administrative expenses by approximately $0.3
million.

INVENTORIES

NATURE OF ESTIMATES REQUIRED.  In our businesses, we carry large quantities
and dollar amounts of inventory.  Inventories consist primarily of finished
products purchased in bulk quantities to be sold to our customers.  Given the
large quantities and broad range of products that we carry to better serve
our customers, there is a risk of impairment in inventory that is unsaleable
or unrefundable, slow moving, obsolete or is discontinued.  The use of
estimates is required in determining the salvage value of this inventory.

                                  40


ASSUMPTIONS AND APPROACH USED.  We estimate our inventory obsolescence
reserve at each balance sheet date based on the following criteria:

      -Slow moving products - Items identified as slow moving are
       evaluated on a case-by-case basis for impairment.

      -Obsolete/discontinued inventory - Products identified that are
       near or beyond their expiration dates. In addition, we may
       discontinue carrying certain product lines for our customers.
       As a result, we estimate the market value of this inventory as
       if it were to be liquidated.

      -Estimated salvage value/sales price - The salvage value of the
       inventory is estimated using management's evaluation of the
       congestion in the distribution channels and experience with
       brokers and inventory liquidators to determine the salvage
       value of the inventory.

DEPRECIATION, AMORTIZATION AND IMPAIRMENT OF LONG-LIVED ASSETS

Long-lived assets consist primarily of fixed assets and intangible assets
that were acquired in business combinations.  Fixed assets and amortizable
identified intangible assets are assigned useful lives ranging from 3 to 40
years.  Goodwill is not amortized.  Impairment of reporting units, which is
measured in the Company's fourth fiscal quarter in order to coincide with its
budgeting process, is evaluated annually with the assistance of an
independent valuation specialist.  The reporting units are valued using
after-tax cash flows from operations (less capital expenditures) discounted
to present value.  No impairment charges were recorded by the Company in
fiscal 2007 or fiscal 2006.

Fiscal 2005 impairment
----------------------
During fiscal 2005, management determined that a portion of the tradenames
and goodwill in our retail and former beverage segments were impaired, based
on valuations obtained from an independent valuation specialist.  The
impairments recorded in our retail and former beverage segment (TSI & HNWC)
were the result of projected shortfalls in operating cash flows necessary to
support the reporting units carrying value.  The fair values of the reporting
units were estimated with the assistance of an independent valuation
specialist using the expected present value of the discounted future cash
flows and consideration of the net recoverable values.

The impairment charges for our retail segment are recorded in the Company's
statement of operations as a component of income (loss) from continuing
operations.  As previously discussed, the operations of TSI and HNWC were
subsequently closed or sold.  Accordingly, the impairment charges for TSI and
HNWC are included in the statement of operations under the caption, loss from
discontinued operations.


                               41






A summary of the impairment charges by entity for fiscal 2005 are as follows
(in millions):

                               =====        =====     =====     =====
</TABLE>

NATURE OF ESTIMATES REQUIRED.  Management has to estimate the useful lives of
the Company's long lived assets.  In regard to the impairment analysis, the
most significant assumptions include management's estimate of the annual
growth rate used to project future sales and expenses used by the independent
third party valuation specialist.

ASSUMPTIONS AND APPROACH USED.  For fixed assets, depreciable lives are based
on our accounting policy which is intended to mirror the expected useful life
of the asset.  In determining the estimated useful life of amortizable
intangible assets, such as customer lists, we rely on our historical
experience to estimate the useful life of the applicable asset and consider
Industry norms as a benchmark.  In evaluating potential impairment of long-
lived assets we primarily use an income based approach (discounted cash flow
method) in addition to both public and private company information.  A
discounted cash flow methodology requires estimation in (i) forecasting
future earnings (ii) determining the discount rate applicable to the earnings
stream being discounted, and (iii) computing a terminal value at some point
in the future.

The forecast of future earnings is an estimate of future financial
performance based on current year results and management's evaluation of the
market potential for growth.  The discount rate is a weighted average cost of
capital using a targeted debt-to-equity ratio using the Industry average
under the assumption that it represents our optimal capital structure and can
be achieved in a reasonable time period.  The terminal value is determined
using a commonly accepted growth model.

SENSITIVITY ANALYSIS.  We believe that the estimated useful lives of our
fixed assets and amortizable intangibles are appropriate.  If we shortened
the estimated useful lives of our fixed assets by one year, the impact on the
statement of operations for the current period would be to increase
depreciation expense by approximately $0.2 million.




                                  42




INSURANCE

The Company's insurance for workers' compensation, general liability and
employee-related health care benefits are provided through high-deductible or
self-insured programs.  As a result, the Company accrues for its workers'
compensation liability based upon claim reserves established with the
assistance of a third-party administrator which are then trended and
developed.  The reserves are evaluated at the end of each reporting period.
Due to the uncertainty involved with the realization of claims incurred but
unreported, management is required to make estimates of these claims.

ASSUMPTIONS AND APPROACH USED.  In order to estimate our reserve for incurred
but unreported claims we consider the following key factors:

Employee Health Insurance Claims

     - Historical claims experience - We review loss runs for each
       month to calculate the average monthly claims experience.

     - Lag period for reporting claims - Based on analysis and
       consultation with our third party administrator, our experience
       is such that we have a one month lag period in which claims are
       reported.

Workers' Compensation Insurance Claims

     - Historical claims experience - We review prior year's loss runs
       to estimate the average annual expected claims and review
       monthly loss runs to compare our estimates to actual claims.

     - Lag period for reporting claims - We utilize the assistance
       of our insurance agent to trend and develop reserves on
       reported claims in order to estimate the amount of incurred but
       unreported claims.  Our insurance agent uses standard insurance
       industry loss development models.

SENSITIVITY ANALYSIS.  We believe that our current reserve for incurred but
unreported insurance claims is adequate at September 2007.  However, for
every 5% percent increase in claims, an additional reserve of approximately
$71,000 would be required at September 2007, the impact of which would
increase selling, general and administrative expenses by that amount in the
same period.

INCOME TAXES

The Company accounts for its income taxes by recording taxes payable or
refundable for the current year and deferred tax assets and liabilities for
the future tax consequences of events that have been recognized in our
financial statements or tax returns.  As required by SFAS No. 109,
"Accounting for Income Taxes", these expected future tax consequences are
measured based on provisions of tax law as currently enacted; the effects of
future changes in tax laws are not anticipated.  Future tax law changes, such
as a change in the corporate tax rate, could have a material impact on our
financial condition or results of operations.  When appropriate, we record a
valuation allowance against deferred tax assets to offset future tax benefits
that may not be realized.

                                  43

ASSUMPTIONS AND APPROACH USED.  In determining whether a valuation allowance
is appropriate, we consider whether it is more likely than not that all or
some portion of our deferred tax assets will not be realized, based in part
upon management's judgments regarding future events.

In making that estimate we consider the following key factors:

  - our current financial position;
  - historical financial information;
  - future reversals of existing taxable temporary differences;
  - future taxable income exclusive of reversing temporary differences
    and carryforwards;
  - taxable income in prior carryback years; and
  - tax planning strategies.

SENSITIVITY ANALYSIS.  Based on our analysis, we have determined that no
valuation allowance was required at September 2007.

REVENUE RECOGNITION

We recognize revenue in our wholesale segment when products are delivered to
customers (which generally is the same day products are shipped) and in our
retail health food segment when products are sold to consumers.  Sales are
shown net of returns, discounts, and sales incentives to customers.

NATURE OF ESTIMATES REQUIRED.  We estimate and reserve for anticipated sales
discounts.  We also estimate and provide a reserve for anticipated sales
incentives to customers when earned under established program requirements.

ASSUMPTIONS AND APPROACH USED.  We estimate the sales reserves using the
following criteria:

     - Sales discounts - We use historical experience to estimate the
       amount of accounts receivable that will not be collected due to
       customers taking advantage of authorized term discounts.

     - Volume sales incentives - We use historical experience in
       combination with quarterly reviews of customers' sales progress
       in order to estimate the amount of volume incentives due to
       the customers on a periodic basis.

SENSITIVITY ANALYSIS.  Based on the historical information used to estimate
the reserves for sales discounts and volume sales incentives, we do not
anticipate significant variances from the amounts reserved.  However, there
could be significant variances from period-to-period based on customer make-
up and programs offered.

Our estimates and assumptions for each of the aforementioned critical
accounting estimates have not changed materially during the periods
presented, nor are we aware of any reasons that they would be reasonably
likely to change in the future.

    - further increases in fuel prices,
    - 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.  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.

ITEM 7A.  QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

The Company is exposed to interest rate risk on its variable rate debt.
At September 2007, the Company had $38.9 million of variable rate debt
outstanding with maturities through April 2009 and interest rates ranging
from 7.75% to 9.75%.  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.

We do not utilize financial instruments for trading purposes and hold no
derivative financial instruments which could expose us to significant market
risk.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

To the Board of Directors
AMCON Distributing Company
Omaha, Nebraska

We have audited the consolidated balance sheets of AMCON Distributing Company
and subsidiaries as of September 30, 2007 and 2006, and the related
consolidated statements of operations, shareholders' equity and comprehensive
income (loss) and cash flows for the years ended September 30, 2007 and 2006.
These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's
management.  Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial
statements based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public
Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States).  Those standards require
that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about
whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement.  An audit
includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and
disclosures in the financial statements.  An audit also includes assessing
the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management,
as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation.  We
believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above
present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of AMCON
Distributing Company and subsidiaries as of September 30, 2007 and 2006, and
the results of their operations and their cash flows for the years ended
September 30, 2007 and 2006, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted
accounting principles.

As described in Note 1 to the financial statements, the Company changed its
method of accounting for inventories in 2007. This change has been applied
retroactively to 2003 and, accordingly, all prior financial statements have
been restated.

We audited the adjustment described in Note 1 that was applied to restate the
2003, 2004, 2005 and 2006 financial statements.  In our opinion, such
adjustment is appropriate and has been properly applied.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

To the Board of Directors
AMCON Distributing Company
Omaha, Nebraska

We have audited, before the effects of the adjustments to retrospectively
apply the change in accounting discussed in Note 1, the consolidated
statements of operations, shareholders' equity, and cash flows of AMCON
Distributing Company and subsidiaries (the "Company") for the year ended
September 30, 2005 (the 2005 consolidated financial statements before the
effects of the adjustments discussed in Note 1 to the consolidated financial
statements are not presented herein).  Our audit also included the 2005
financial statement schedule, before the effects of the adjustments discussed
in Note 1 to the consolidated financial statements, listed in the Index at
Item 15.  These financial statements and financial statement schedule are the
responsibility of the Company's management.  Our responsibility is to express
an opinion on these financial statements and financial statement schedule
based on our audit.

We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the Public Company
Accounting Oversight Board (United States).  Those standards require that we
plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the
financial statements are free of material misstatement.  The Company is not
required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal
control over financial reporting.  Our audit included consideration of
internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit
procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose
of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company's internal
control over financial reporting.  Accordingly, we express no such opinion.
An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the
amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting
principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as
evaluating the overall financial statement presentation.  We believe that our
audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, such 2005 consolidated financial statements, before the
effects of the adjustments to retrospectively apply the change in accounting
discussed in Note 1 to the consolidated financial statements, present fairly,
in all material respects, the results of AMCON Distributing Company and
subsidiaries' operations and their cash flows for the year ended
September 30, 2005, in conformity with accounting principles generally
accepted in the United States of America.  Also in our opinion such financial
statement schedule for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2005, before the
effects of the adjustments to retrospectively apply the change in accounting
discussed in Note 1 to the consolidated financial statements, when considered
in relation to the basic consolidated financial statements taken as a whole,
presents fairly, in all material respects, the information set forth within.

We were not engaged to audit, review, or apply any procedures to the
adjustments to retrospectively apply the change in accounting discussed in
Note 1 to the consolidated financial statements and, accordingly, we do not
express an opinion or any other form of assurance about whether such
retrospective adjustments are appropriate and have been properly applied.
Those retrospective adjustments were audited by other auditors.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1.     SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES:

(a) Company Operations:
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.

AMCON's wholesale distribution business ("ADC") includes five distribution
centers that sell approximately 14,000 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.

The Company's operations are subject to a number of factors which are beyond
the control of management, such as changes in manufacturers' cigarette
pricing, state excise tax increases or the opening of competing retail stores
in close proximity to the Company's retail stores.  While the Company sells a
diversified product line, it remains dependent upon cigarette sales which
represented approximately 71% of revenue and 25% of gross profit in fiscal
2007, as compared to 72% and 27% of revenue and gross profit in fiscal 2006,
and 73% and 33% of revenue and gross profit in fiscal 2005.

(b)Change in Accounting Principle:
In the fourth quarter of fiscal 2007, the Company changed its inventory
valuation method from the Last-In First-Out (LIFO) method to the First-In
First-Out (FIFO) method.  The change is preferable as it provides a more
meaningful presentation of the Company's financial position as it values
inventory in a manner which more closely approximates current cost; better
represents the underlying commercial substance of selling the oldest products
first; and more accurately reflects the Company's realized periodic income.

As required by U.S. generally accepted accounting principles, this change in
accounting principle has been reflected in the consolidated statements of
financial position, consolidated statements of operations, and consolidated
statements of cash flows through retroactive application of the FIFO method.
Accordingly, inventories from continuing operations as of the beginning of
fiscal 2005 were increased by the LIFO reserve ($4.0 million), net current
deferred tax assets were decreased ($0.7 million), current assets of
discontinued operations were increased for the impact of related LIFO
reserves ($0.1 million), net non-current deferred tax liabilities were


                                  54



increased ($0.9 million), and shareholders' equity was increased by the
after-tax effect ($2.5 million).  Previously reported net income (loss)
available to common shareholders' for the fiscal years 2006 and 2005 were also
increased by $0.1 million and $0.5 million after income taxes, respectively.

(c) Accounting Period:
During fiscal 2005, the Company changed its reporting period from a 52-53 week
year to a calendar month reporting period ending on September 30.  As a result
of this change, the fiscal year 2005 was comprised of 53 weeks compared to 52
weeks in fiscal 2007 and 2006.  The fiscal years 2007, 2006 and 2005 ended on
September 30 and are herein referred to as AMCON's fiscal years.

(d) Principles of Consolidation:
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of AMCON and its
wholly-owned subsidiaries.

Prior to the settlement of the litigation among and between AMCON, TSI, and
Crystal Paradise Holdings, Inc. ("CPH") in September 2007, as described in
Note 14, the Company had a 85% ownership in TSI, with a 15% non-owned interest
being held by a minority interest (CPH).  For the fiscal years 2007, 2006, and
2005, TSI has been accounted for as a consolidated subsidiary of the Company
and has been included as a component of discontinued operations in the
Consolidated Financial Statements.  During the first quarter of fiscal 2005,
the Company suspended the allocation of TSI's losses to minority shareholders
as their ownership basis in TSI had been reduced to zero and the minority
shareholders did not guarantee TSI's debt or commit additional capital to TSI.

All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated.

(e) Cash and Accounts Payable:
AMCON utilizes a cash management system under which an overdraft is the normal
book balance in the primary disbursing accounts.  Overdrafts included in
accounts payable at fiscal 2007 and fiscal 2006 totaled approximately
$3.3 million and $3.2 million, respectively, and reflect checks drawn on the
disbursing accounts that have been issued but have not yet cleared through the
banking system.  The Company's policy has been to fund these outstanding
checks as they clear with borrowings under its revolving credit facility (see
Note 9).  These outstanding checks (book overdrafts) are classified as cash
flows from operating activities in the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows.

(f) Accounts Receivable:
Accounts receivable consist primarily of amounts due to the Company from its
normal business activities.  An allowance for doubtful accounts is maintained
to reflect the expected uncollectibility of accounts receivable based on past
collection history and specific risks identified in the portfolio.

(g) Inventories:
Inventories consisted of the following at September 2007 and 2006 (in
millions):
                                     Restated/1/

     Finished Goods      $    29.7   $    29.4

    valuation method.  See Note 1 to the Consolidated Financial Statements.

                                  55

Inventories are stated at the lower of cost, determined on a FIFO basis, or
market. 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.

(h) Prepaid Expenses and Other Current Assets:
A summary of prepaid expenses and other current assets is as follows (in
millions):
                             September   September
                               2007        2006
                             ---------   ---------
     Prepaid expenses        $     0.8   $     1.2
     Prepaid inventory             5.1         4.2
                             ---------   ---------
                             $     5.9   $     5.4
                             =========   =========

Prepaid inventory represents inventory in transit that has been paid for but
has not yet been received.

(i) Property and Equipment:
Property and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation or
amortization.  Major renewals and improvements are capitalized and charged to
expense over their useful lives through depreciation or amortization charges.
Repairs and maintenance are charged to expense in the period incurred.  The
straight-line method of depreciation is used to depreciate assets over the
estimated useful lives as follows:

                                      Years
                                     -------
     Buildings                         40
     Warehouse equipment               5-7
     Furniture, fixtures and
      leasehold improvements           5-18
     Vehicles                          5

Costs and accumulated depreciation applicable to assets retired or sold are
eliminated from the accounts, and the resulting gains or losses are reported
as a component of operating income.

(j) Long-Lived Assets:
The Company reviews its long-lived assets for impairment whenever events or
changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of such asset may
not be recoverable.  Long-lived assets are reviewed annually for impairment
and are reported at the lower of the carrying amount or fair value less the
cost to sell.  During fiscal 2005, the Company recorded impairment charges of
$2.5 million and $0.4 million related to long-lived assets held by our
Hawaiian Natural Water Company ("HNWC") and TSI subsidiaries, respectively.
The impairments resulted from a shortfall in the projected future cash flows
necessary to support the assets and sustain operations.  The Company did not
incur similar impairment charges in fiscal 2007 or fiscal 2006.  See further
discussion regarding HNWC and TSI in Note 2.

(k) Goodwill, Intangible and Other Assets:
Goodwill consists of the excess purchase price paid in business acquisitions
over the fair value of assets acquired.  At September 2007, intangible assets
consist primarily of tradenames and favorable leases assumed in acquisitions.

                                  56

These assets are initially recorded at an amount equal to the purchase price
paid or allocated to them.  Other assets consist primarily of the cash
surrender value of life insurance policies and debt issuance costs.

The Company employs the nonamortization approach to account for purchased
goodwill and intangible assets having indefinite useful lives.  Under a
nonamortization approach, goodwill and intangible assets having indefinite
useful lives are not amortized into results of operations, but instead are
reviewed at least annually for impairment.  During the fourth quarter of each
fiscal year the Company engages an external consulting firm to assist in
performing this valuation.  If the recorded value of goodwill and intangible
assets having indefinite useful lives is determined to exceed their fair
value, the asset is written down to fair value and a charge is taken against
the results of operations in that period.  AMCON considers its tradenames to
have indefinite lives.

As discussed in Note 7, during fiscal 2005 the Company determined that certain
goodwill and intangible assets at TSI and HNWC, components of the Company's
former beverage segment reporting unit, were impaired based on a valuation
report provided by an independent valuation specialist.  Additionally, the
Company determined that a portion of the tradenames and goodwill carried by
the Company's retail segment were impaired.  The total amount of the
impairment of goodwill and identifiable intangible assets before income taxes
was $10.2 million and was included in the results of operations of
discontinued operations.  The Company did not incur similar impairment charges
during fiscal 2007 or fiscal 2006.  See further discussion of regarding HNWC
and TSI in Note 2.

The Company's only intangible assets that are considered to have definite
useful lives are favorable leases which continue to be charged to expense
through amortization on the straight-line method over their estimated useful
lives of three to seven years.

The benefit related to increases in the cash surrender value of split dollar
life insurance policies are recorded as a reduction to insurance expense.  The
cash surrender value of life insurance policies is limited to the lesser of
the cash value or premiums paid in accordance with regulatory guidance.

(l) Water Royalty in Perpetuity:
Water royalty in perpetuity represents the present value of the future minimum
water royalty payments and related brokers fees to be paid in perpetuity
incurred in connection with assets acquired by TSI in June 2004.  As discussed
in Note 2, in September 2007 AMCON and TSI were released of this obligation in
connection with the terms of the litigation settlement.

(m) Debt Issuance Costs:
The costs related to the issuance of debt are capitalized in other assets and
amortized on an effective interest method to interest expense over the terms
of the related debt agreements.

(n) Revenue Recognition:
AMCON recognizes revenue in its wholesale distribution division when products
are delivered to customers (which generally is the same day products are
shipped) and in its retail health food business when products are sold to
consumers.  Sales are shown net of returns and discounts.

                                  57



(o) Insurance:
The Company's workers' compensation, general liability and employee-related
health care benefits are provided through high-deductible or self-insurance
programs.  As a result, the Company accrues for its workers' compensation and
general liability based upon a claim reserve established with the assistance
of a third-party administrator.  The Company has issued a letter of credit in
the amount of $1.0 million to its workers' compensation insurance carrier as
part of its loss control program.  The letter of credit was reduced to
approximately $0.9 million subsequent to September 2007.  The reserve for
incurred, but not reported, employee health care benefits is based on one
month of claims, calculated using the Company's historical claims experience
rate, plus specific reserves for large claims.  The reserves associated with
the exposure to these liabilities are reviewed by management for adequacy at
the end of each reporting period.

(p) Income Taxes:
Deferred income taxes are determined based on temporary differences between
the financial reporting and tax basis of the Company's assets and liabilities,
using enacted tax rates in effect during the years in which the differences
are expected to reverse.

(q) Comprehensive Income (Loss):
Comprehensive income (loss) includes net income or loss, plus changes in the
valuation of interest rate swap contracts, which are treated as hedging
instruments and charged or credited to shareholders' equity.

(r) 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 in the statement of
operations for fiscal 2007 and fiscal 2006.  This expense represents the
amortization of unvested stock option awards granted prior to September 30,
2005, in addition to stock options granted the Company's Chief Executive
Officer in April 2007.  This expense 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 income (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 had the Company applied the fair value recognition provisions of
FASB Statement No. 123R, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation, to
stock-based employee compensation for fiscal 2005.

(s) Per-share results:
Basic earnings or loss per share data are based on the weighted-average number
of common shares outstanding during each period.  Diluted earnings or loss per
share data are based on the weighted-average number of common shares
outstanding and the effect of all dilutive potential common shares including
stock options and conversion features of the Company's preferred stock
issuances.

(t) Use of Estimates:
The preparation of the consolidated financial statements in conformity with
accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America
requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported
amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and
liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts
of revenues and expenses during the reporting period.  Actual results could
differ from those estimates.

(u) Recently Issued Accounting Standards:
During fiscal 2007, Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") issued Staff
Accounting Bulletin No. 108, "Considering the Effects of Prior Year
Misstatements when Quantifying Misstatements in Current Year Financial
Statements" ("SAB 108") became effective for the Company.  SAB 108 requires
that registrants quantify errors using both a balance sheet approach and an
income statement approach and then evaluate whether either approach results in
a misstated amount that, when all relevant quantitative and qualitative
factors are considered, is material. The adoption of SAB 108 did not have a
material effect on the Company's financial position or results of operations.


                                  59




The Company is currently evaluating the impact of implementing the following
new accounting standards:

On July 13, 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued
FASB Interpretation No. 48, "Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes, and
Related Implementation Issues" ("FIN 48"). FIN 48 clarifies the accounting for
uncertainty in income taxes recognized in a Company's financial statements in
accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standard No. 109,
"Accounting for Income Taxes" ("SFAS 109"). FIN 48 prescribes a recognition
threshold and measurement attribute for a tax position taken or expected to be
taken in a tax return.  FIN 48 also provides guidance on derecognition,
classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods,
disclosure, and transition.  FIN 48 is effective for fiscal years beginning
after December 15, 2006 (the first fiscal quarter of 2008 for the Company).
We do not believe that the cumulative effect of adopting FIN 48 will have a
material impact on the Company's Consolidated Financial Statements.

In September 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 157, "Fair Value Measurements"
("SFAS No. 157").  SFAS No. 157 clarifies the principle that fair value should
be based on the assumptions market participants would use when pricing an
asset or liability and establishes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes
the information used to develop those assumptions.  Under the standard, fair
value measurements would be separately disclosed by level within the fair
value hierarchy.  SFAS 157 is effective in fiscal 2008 for the Company.

In February 2007, FASB issued SFAS No. 159, "The Fair Value Option for
Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities-Including an amendment of FASB
Statement No. 115" ("SFAS 159").  SFAS 159 expands the use of fair value
accounting but does not affect existing standards which require assets and
liabilities to be carried at fair value.  Under SFAS 159, a company may elect
to use fair value to measure accounts and loans receivable, available-for-
sale and held-to-maturity securities, equity method investments, accounts
payable, guarantees, issued debt and other eligible financial instruments.
SFAS 159 is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007
(fiscal 2009 for the Company).

In March 2007, the FASB issued Emerging Issues Task Force Issue No. 06-10
"Accounting for Collateral Assignment Split-Dollar Life Insurance Agreements"
(EITF 06-10).  EITF 06-10 provides guidance for determining a liability for
the postretirement benefit obligation as well as recognition and measurement
of the associated asset on the basis of the terms of the collateral assignment
agreement.  EITF 06-10 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December
15, 2007 (fiscal 2009 for the Company).

2.  DISPOSITIONS

For the fiscal years 2007, 2006 and 2005, HNWC and TSI have been reflected in
the Company's Consolidated Financial Statements as components of discontinued
operations.  The Beverage Group, Inc. ("TBG") is also included in discontinued
operations for the fiscal year 2005 and the first two quarters of fiscal 2006.
TBG was a component of the Company's former beverage segment, which was closed
in March 2005.  TBG's final wind-down was completed in April 2006 at which
time its residual liabilities were classified to continuing operations.


                                  60



Trinity Springs, Inc. (TSI)
---------------------------
During fiscal 2006, the Company discontinued the operations of TSI, which
operated a water bottling facility in Idaho, due to recurring losses, a lack
of capital resources to sustain operations, and litigation as discussed in
Note 14.

As described in Note 14, AMCON and TSI were parties to litigation with Crystal
Paradise Holdings, Inc. ("CPH") regarding the April 24, 2004 Asset Purchase
Agreement ("Asset Purchase Agreement"), under which TSI acquired certain
assets from CPH.  On September 30, 2007, the Company signed a Mutual Release
and Settlement Agreement (the "Settlement Agreement") with CPH related to this
litigation.  The Settlement Agreement calls for the mutual release and
settlement of all outstanding and potential litigation and claims among and
between AMCON, TSI, and CPH with respect to the Asset Purchase Agreement and
the related acquisition.

The Settlement Agreement also restructured the Company's obligations arising
from the Asset Purchase Agreement with CPH totaling approximately $6.5 million
into a new $5.0 million note payable to CPH.  The $5.0 million note payable is
due at the end of five years plus accrued interest at 5.0%.  Items
restructured into the $5.0 million note payable included CPH's minority
interest in TSI, water royalties payable to CPH, notes payable to CPH, and
accrued interest payable to CPH.  Additionally, the agreement provides CPH
with an eleven month option to purchase TSI's assets for a price equivalent to
the amount due CPH under the $5.0 million note payable, plus accrued interest.
The TSI asset purchase option can be extended an additional seven months at
CPH's election.

No monetary exchanges between the Company and CPH were required under the
Settlement Agreement.  The Company has recorded a $1.5 million pre-tax
deferred gain in connection with the above settlement.  This deferred gain
has been classified as component of noncurrent liabilities of discontinued
operations in the Company's Consolidated Balance Sheet.  The deferred gain
will be recognized upon the earlier of CPH's election to exercise its TSI
asset purchase option or the expiration of the asset purchase option.

Hawaiian Natural Water Company, Inc. (HNWC)
-------------------------------------------
HNWC, which was headquartered in Pearl City, Hawaii, bottled, marketed and
distributed Hawaiian natural artesian water, purified water and other limited
production co-packaged products, in Hawaii, the mainland and foreign markets.

In November 2006, the Company sold all of the operating assets of HNWC for
approximately $3.8 million in cash plus the buyer's assumption of all
operating and capital leases.  The significant operating assets consisted of
accounts receivable, inventory, furniture and fixtures, intellectual property
and all of its bottling equipment.  In connection with the sale, the Company
has recorded a $1.6 million pre-tax gain on disposal of discontinued
operations.  HNWC remained a fully operational subsidiary of the Company
through November 19, 2006.

 which to be converted:                  82,481              81,136             146,842
Dividend rate:                           6.785%               6.37%               6.00%

</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
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 beneficially own approximately 60% of the outstanding
common stock at September 2007.  Mr. William Wright, AMCON's Chairman of the
Board, beneficially owns 27% of the outstanding common stock without giving
effect to shares owned by his adult children.  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

                                  63


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 seek 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 Chairman, and a private equity firm
(Draupnir, LLC) of which Mr. Hobbs, a director of the Company, is a member.
The Series B Preferred Stock is owned by an institutional investor which has
elected Mr. Chris Atayan, AMCON's Chief Executive Officer and Vice Chairman,
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 a subsidiary of Draupnir, LLC (the owner of
Series A).  Mr. Hobbs is also a Member 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 the Series A,
Series B or Series C Preferred Stock will become redeemable in the future.

4.    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 income (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 income (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 fiscal 2007, 2006 and
2005 that were anti-dilutive were not included in the computations of diluted
earnings per share.  Such potential common shares totaled 20,245, 128,330 and
198,620 with average exercise prices of $38.74, $30.17 and $29.13,
respectively.

The Company performs its annual impairment testing of goodwill and other
intangible assets during the fourth fiscal quarter of each year, with the
assistance of an independent valuation specialist.  This annual review
identified no impairments in fiscal 2007 or fiscal 2006.

After completing its fiscal 2005 impairment review, however, the Company
concluded that a portion of the tradenames and goodwill at our retail and
former beverage segment were impaired.  These impairments were the result of
projected shortfalls in operating cash flows necessary to support the
reporting units carrying value.  The fair values of the reporting units were
estimated with the assistance of an independent valuation specialist using the
expected present value of the discounted future cash flows and consideration
of the net recoverable values.

The impairment charges for our Retail segment are recorded in the Company's
statement of operations as a component of income (loss) from continuing
operations.  The impairment charges for TSI and HNWC have been included in the
statement of operations as a component of loss from discontinued operations.

     between the maximum loan limit and average monthly borrowings.

   - Collateral including all of the Company's equipment, intangibles,
     inventories, and accounts receivable.

   - A prepayment penalty of one percent (1%) of the prepayment loan limit of
     $55.0 million if prepayment occurs on or before April 30, 2008.

   - Provides that the Company may not pay dividends on its common stock in
     excess of $0.72 per share on an annual basis.

The Facility also includes quarterly debt service and cumulative earnings
before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization ("EBITDA") financial
covenants.  Beginning with the fiscal quarter ended September 2007, the
Company must maintain a minimum debt service ratio of 1.0 to 1.0, as measured
by the twelve month period then ended.

                                  69

The cumulative minimum EBITDA requirements are as follows:

(a) $1,000,000 for the three months ending December 31, 2007 and
     December 31, 2008 and;
(b) $2,000,000 for the six months ending March 31, 2008, and
    March 31, 2009 and;
(c) $4,500,000 for the nine months ending June 30, 2008 and;
(d) $7,000,000 for the twelve months ending September 30, 2007
     and September 30, 2008.

The Company was in compliance with the required debt service and minimum
EBITDA covenants at September 30, 2007.

The Company's Chairman has personally guaranteed repayment of the Facility and
the term loans.  However, the amount of his guaranty is capped at $10.0
million and is automatically reduced by the amount of the repayment on Term
Note B, which resulted in the guaranteed principal outstanding being reduced
to approximately $5.4 million as of September 2007.  AMCON pays 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, Akin's, HNWC and TSI.

The Company's Chairman has also personally guaranteed a note payable issued in
conjunction with the Television Events and Marketing, Inc. ("TEAM") litigation
settlement as discussed in Note 14.  The Company pays the Chairman an annual
fee equal to 2% of the guaranteed principal in return for the personal
guarantee.  The amount guaranteed in connection with this settlement at
September 2007 was approximately $0.7 million.

Market rate risk for fixed rate debt is estimated as the potential increase
in fair value of debt obligations resulting from decreases in interest rates.
Based on discounted cash flows using current market rates for similar
agreements, the fair value of the Company's long-term debt obligations
approximated carrying value at September 2007.

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 Bank ("M&I"), 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.

Capital leases
--------------
The Company has several capital leases for office and warehouse equipment.
As of September 2007, the outstanding balances on the capital leases totaled
approximately $0.1 million.

OTHER
-----
AMCON has issued a letter of credit in the amount of approximately $1.0
million to its workers' compensation insurance carrier as part of its
self-insured loss control program.  The letter of credit was reduced to
approximately $0.9 million subsequent to September 2007.

/1/ Restated for the retroactive application of the FIFO inventory valuation
    method.  See Note 1 to the Consolidated Financial Statements.

During fiscal 2006, the Company recorded a valuation allowance of
$0.5 million against deferred tax assets, primarily related to state net
operating losses at TSI and HNWC, which more likely than not will not be
realized.  No such valuation allowance was recorded in fiscal 2007.

The Company's deferred tax asset at fiscal 2007 related to federal net
operating loss carryforwards was $1.8 million, including the net operating
losses of TSI and HNWC.  Of the total net operating loss carryforwards $1.1
million expires in 2026.  The remaining $0.7 million was acquired in
connection with the acquisition of HNWC in fiscal 2002.  The utilization of
HNWC's deferred tax asset related to the net operating loss of $0.7 million is
limited (by Internal Revenue Code Section 382) to approximately $0.1 million
per year through 2022.

12.    PROFIT SHARING PLAN:

AMCON maintains a profit sharing plan (i.e. a section 401(k) plan) covering
substantially all employees.  The plan allows employees to make voluntary
contributions up to 100% of their compensation, subject to Internal Revenue
Service limits.  The Company matches 50% of the first 4% contributed and 100%
of the next 2% contributed for a maximum match of 4% of employee compensation.
The Company contributed $0.5 million, $0.6 million and $0.6 million (net of
employee forfeitures) to the profit sharing plans in fiscal 2007, 2006, and
2005, respectively.


                                  75







13.    RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS:

In each of the fiscal years 2007, 2006, and 2005, the Company was charged
$72,000 by AMCON Corporation, the former parent of the Company, as
consideration for office rent and management services.  These charges have
been included as a component of selling, general and administrative expenses.

The Company's Chairman has personally guaranteed repayment of the Facility and
the term loans.  However, the amount of his guaranty is capped at $10.0
million and is automatically reduced by the amount of the repayment on Term
Note B, which resulted in the guaranteed principal outstanding being reduced
to approximately $5.4 million as of September 2007.  AMCON pays 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, Akin's, HNWC and TSI.

The Company's Chairman has also personally guaranteed a note payable issued in
conjunction with the Television Events and Marketing, Inc. ("TEAM") litigation
settlement as discussed in Note 14.  The Company pays the Chairman an annual
fee equal to 2% of the guaranteed principal in return for the personal
guarantee.  The amount guaranteed in connection with this settlement at
September 2007 was approximately $0.7 million.

14.    COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES:

Future Lease Obligations
------------------------
The Company leases certain office and warehouse equipment under capital
leases.  The carrying value of these assets was approximately $0.1 million
and $0.3 million at fiscal 2007 and fiscal 2006, respectively, net of
accumulated amortization of $0.04 million and $0.8 million, respectively.
The Company also leases various office and warehouse facilities and equipment
under noncancellable operating leases.  Rents charged to expense under these
operating leases during fiscal 2007, 2006, and 2005 totaled approximately
$4.2 million, $5.0 million and $5.1 million, respectively.

At September 2007 the minimum future lease commitments for continuing and
discontinued operations were as follows:

Liability Insurance
-------------------
The Company carries property, general liability, vehicle liability, directors
and officers liability and workers' compensation, as well as umbrella
liability policies to provide excess coverage over the underlying limits
contained in these primary policies.

The Company's insurance programs for workers' compensation, general liability
and employee related health care benefits are provided through high deductible
or self-insured programs.  Claims in excess of self-insurance levels are fully
insured.  Accruals are based on claims filed and estimates of claims incurred
but not reported.

The Company's liabilities for unpaid and incurred, but not reported claims,
for workers' compensation and health insurance at fiscal 2007 and 2006 was
$1.4 million and $1.1 million, respectively, and are included in other current
liabilities in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets.  While the
ultimate amount of claims incurred are dependent on future developments, in
the Company's opinion, recorded reserves are adequate to cover the future
payment of claims previously incurred.  However, it is reasonably possible
that recorded reserves may not be adequate to cover the future payment of
claims.

Adjustments, if any, to claims estimates previously recorded, resulting from
actual claim payments, are reflected in operations in the periods in which
such adjustments are known.

Trinity Springs. Inc. / Crystal Paradise Holdings, Inc. Litigation
-----------------------------------------------------------------
The Company and its consolidated subsidiary, TSI, were involved in litigation
regarding shareholder approval of the purchase of substantially all of the
assets of Trinity Springs, Ltd. (which later changed its name to Crystal
Paradise Holdings, Inc. ("CPH")).  That litigation has been settled and the
presiding Court has approved the settlement and dismissed the lawsuit with
prejudice.

The settlement resolved all disputes between the minority shareholder
plaintiffs and CPH, AMCON, TSI and the Defendant Directors.  The Company faces
no further known liability from that lawsuit or settlement.

CPH filed a separate lawsuit in the Fourth Judicial District of the State of
Idaho (the "Court") against AMCON and TSI and other defendants relating to the
transfer of the assets of CPH to TSI and TSI's operation of the business
thereafter.  In this lawsuit, CPH asserted claims of foreclosure; breach of
the asset purchase agreement, promissory notes and water royalty obligations;
quantum meruit; unjust enrichment; and collection and enforcement of its
security interest.

That litigation has now been settled and the Parties are obligated under the
Mutual Release and Settlement Agreement to file any and all papers with the
Court that are required to dismiss the lawsuit with prejudice.


                                  77





In exchange for (i) a full and complete release from CPH, (ii) cancellation of
the promissory notes issued in connection with the original acquisition, (iii)
termination of the Asset Purchase Agreement and water royalty contained
therein, and (iv) relinquishment of the TSI stock owned by CPH, (a) TSI issued
a promissory note in the amount of $5,000,000 to CPH, with interest accruing
at 5% and secured by the assets currently held by TSI (the "New Note"), (b)
AMCON amended and restated the existing Guaranty and Suretyship Agreement to
substitute the New Note for the cancelled notes, and (c) TSI granted CPH an
eleven-month option to purchase the assets of TSI.  If CPH elects to exercise
its purchase option, then CPH will cancel the New Note, including the
obligation to pay any accrued interest.  The purchase option may be extended
for an additional seven months upon the discharge of all accrued interest
during the initial option period.

Television Events and Marketing, Inc. vs. AMCON Distributing Company
--------------------------------------------------------------------
On July 31, 2007, the Company and its subsidiary, The Beverage Group, Inc.
("TBG") settled its outstanding litigation with Television Events & Marketing,
Inc. ("TEAM").  This action, entitled Television Events & Marketing, Inc. vs.
AMCON Distributing Co., The Beverage Group, Inc., The Beverage Group aka AMCON
Beverage Group, AMCON Corporation and William F. Wright, Civil No. CV 05-00259
ACK KSC, was filed in the First Circuit Court of the State of Hawaii in
Honolulu, Hawaii on March 8, 2005 and was moved on April 12, 2005 to the
United States District Court for the District of Hawaii.

This action concerned the alleged breach of two trademark licensing agreements
between TEAM and the Company's subsidiary, TBG and purportedly, the other
named defendants.  On December 21, 2005, the Plaintiffs filed a Second Amended
Complaint.  This Second Amended Complaint sought (i) an unstated amount of
damages for an alleged breach of those agreements and alleged
misrepresentation; (ii) interest and reasonable attorney's fees and costs; and
(iii) such other relief as the Court deemed just and proper.

The Company, together with its named subsidiary successfully obtained
dismissal of certain legal theories by motions for summary judgment.  The
Company and its subsidiary also filed a Counterclaim in the action on July 5,
2006 against TEAM, TEAM's President and Archie Thornton alleging: (1) Thornton
was an undisclosed dual agent and breached his fiduciary duty to TBG; (2) TEAM
tortuously assisted Thornton in breaching his fiduciary duty; (3) unjust
enrichment/restitution; (4) TEAM breached its duty of good faith and fair
dealing; (5) TEAM and Thornton's failure to disclose Thornton's agency
relationship with TEAM constituted fraud and misrepresentation; and (6)
punitive damages.

As part of the settlement, AMCON paid TEAM $187,500 in August 2007 and became
obligated to pay $187,500 in four equal quarterly installments of $46,875
beginning in January 2008 through October 2010 and $125,000 in four equal
quarterly installments of $31,250 beginning in January 2011 through October
2011.  The Company's Chairman has personally and unconditionally guaranteed
the payment obligation of $687,500 as of September 30, 2007.  AMCON has
received certain promotion sponsorships as part of the settlement.


                                  78





American Stock Exchange Compliance Plan
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
In fiscal 2007, the Company was notified by the American Stock Exchange (AMEX)
that it was not in compliance with Section 1003(a)(ii) of the AMEX Company
Guide regarding shareholders' equity of less than $4,000,000, and losses from
continuing operations and/or net losses in three of its four most recent
fiscal years.  In order to maintain its AMEX listing, the Company submitted a
comprehensive plan outlining steps to regain compliance with the AMEX's
continued listing standards by March 11, 2008.  As of September 30, 2007, the
Company's shareholders' equity of $5.5 million exceeded the threshold set
forth by Section 1003(a)(ii) of the AMEX Company Guide.  After maintaining the
required shareholders' equity for two successive quarters, the Company will
have completed its comprehensive plan previously submitted to the AMEX.

15.    STOCK OPTION PLAN:

Prior to its expiration in June 2004, AMCON maintained a stock-based
compensation plan ("the Stock Option Plan") which provided the Compensation
Committee of the Board of Directors authorization to grant incentive stock
options and non-qualified stock options, pursuant to the Stock Option Plan, of
up to 550,000 shares.  No shares have been issued under the Stock Option Plan
since the end of fiscal 2003 and there was no unamortized compensation expense
related to the Plan at September 2007.

On October 1, 2005, the Company adopted SFAS No. 123R, Shared Based Payment
(SFAS 123R).  The Company applied the modified prospective transition method
as permitted by SFAS 123R and therefore has not restated prior periods.
Prior to October 1, 2005, the Company accounted for 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.  Accordingly, stock-based compensation costs 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.

On December 11, 2006, prior to the approval of the Omnibus Plan referred to
below, the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors awarded
Christopher Atayan, Chief Executive Officer ("CEO"), Vice Chairman and a
Director of the Company, a non-qualified option to purchase 25,000 shares of
the Company's common stock, subject to shareholder approval.  On April 17,
2007, the Company's shareholders approved the stock option grant, which vests
in three equal installments over a three year period and has an exercise price
of $18.00 per share, the December 11, 2006 closing price of the Company's
common stock on the American Stock Exchange.

The Company has estimated that the fair value of the non-qualified stock
option award to Mr. Atayan was approximately $347,000 using the Black-Scholes
option pricing model.  This cost will be amortized to compensation expense
over a three year service period.  The following assumptions were used in
connection with the Black-Scholes option pricing calculation:

On April 17, 2007, the Board of Directors of the Company approved an equity
incentive plan, the 2007 Omnibus Incentive Plan ("the Omnibus Plan"), to
encourage employees of the Company and subsidiaries to acquire a proprietary
and vested interest in the growth and performance of the Company.  The Omnibus
Plan permits the issuance of up to 150,000 shares of the Company's common
stock in the form of stock options, restricted stock awards, restricted stock
units, performance share awards as well as awards such as stock appreciation
rights, performance units, performance shares, bonus shares and dividend share
awards payable in the form of common stock or cash.  As of September 2007, no
awards have been granted under the Omnibus Plan.

Net income (loss) before incomes taxes for fiscal 2007 and 2006 included
share-based compensation expense of approximately $71,000 and $60,000,
respectively.  At September 2007, there were 26,118 stock options fully vested
and exercisable under the Stock Option Plan and no unamortized compensation
expense.  Total unamortized compensation expense related to the April 2007
stock option award to the Company's CEO totaled approximately $290,000 at
September 2007.

Options issued and outstanding to management employees pursuant to the Stock
Option Plan and April 2007 stock option award to the Company's CEO are
summarized below:

16.  DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS:

The Company borrows money at variable interest rates which exposes it to risk
that interest expense will increase if the benchmark interest rate used to set
the variable rates increases.  In order to reduce its exposure to this risk,
the Company may use derivative instruments (i.e. interest rate swaps
agreements) pursuant to established Company policies.  At September 2005, the
Company had an interest rate swap agreement outstanding with a notional amount
of $10.0 million, with related borrowings on the Facility.  The Company had no
derivative instruments outstanding at September 2007 or 2006.

The interest rate swap was used to effectively convert portions of the
Company's floating rate debt to fixed rate debt.  The interest rate swap
agreement outstanding at September 2005 was accounted for as cash flow hedge,
with the associated gain deferred in accumulated other comprehensive income,
as the hedge was considered to be effective.  Any ineffectiveness associated
with the Company's interest rate swaps is immediately recognized in earnings
within interest expense.

17.  BUSINESS SEGMENTS:

AMCON has two reportable business segments: the wholesale distribution of
consumer products and the retail sale of health and natural food 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 segments are evaluated on revenues,
gross margins, operating income (loss), and income before taxes.  The table
below has been restated to reflect the change in accounting principle as
discussed in Note 1.

18. SELECTED QUARTERLY FINANCIAL DATA (Unaudited)

The following tables set forth selected financial information for each of the
eight quarters in the two fiscal years ended September 30, 2007 and September
30, 2006.  This information has been prepared by the Company on the same basis
as the Consolidated Financial Statements and includes all normal and recurring
adjustments necessary to present fairly this information when read in
conjunction with the Company's audited Consolidated Financial Statements and
Notes thereto included in this Annual Report.

The Company's quarterly earnings or loss per share are based on weighted
average shares outstanding for the quarter, therefore, the sum of the quarters
may not equal the full year earnings or loss per share amount.
