FRAWLEY CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES

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

Real Estate

 
For the quarter ended March 31, 2008, the real estate operating loss was $74,000 compared to a loss of $88,000 for the same period in 2007. However, real estate losses will continue as the Company incurs carrying costs and improvements required to sell the remaining properties.

 
In February 2004, the Company received notice from Los Angeles County that the county intends to severely restrict grading permits and may require condition use permits for grading on the Company’s property. In addition, the County of Los Angeles announced its intention to restrict the building of residences on three of the Company’s six parcels of land because of new ridgeline building ordinances. Prior to the ordinance deadline, the Company received grandfathering status on three of its remaining parcels. Because the grandfathering clause is conditional, it is unclear whether or not the Company will be able to take advantage of this grandfathering status until the Company completes the permit process. The above regulations potentially require multi-year processing to reach the point that a parcel can be sold to a third party.

 
If an agreement cannot be reached with Los Angeles County, these new regulations may force the Company to liquidate its real estate, make settlements with its lenders and close down its real estate development business. As of March 31, 2008, no decision has been made by management regarding liquidation, nor can they determine the potential financial impact to the Company. Accordingly, the March 31, 2008 financial statements do not reflect any adjustments that might result from these new and more stringent regulations.
   
 
After the closing of the financial period, the Company received rough grading sign off for one of the three parcels that the company has previously received grandfathering status. The company is currently marketing this property for sale. The real estate broker , has informed the company there are no current lenders for real estate sales involving land only sales, because there is not financing for land sales, the Company will have to seek a cash buyer or may involve discounts to the sale price.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
 
 
The Company’s recurring losses from continuing operations and difficulties in generating cash flow sufficient to meet its obligations raise substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern.
   
 
Real Estate and Corporate overhead are producing losses that the real-estate business is unable to absorb. The required investments in real estate are currently funded from loans.
   
  The Company intends to meet its obligations through real estate sales. The limited resources available to the Company will be directed at reducing operating expenses and selling real estate.

PART II – OTHER INFORMATION
 
ITEM 1: Legal Proceedings
 
The Company is named as a defendant in the Chatham Brothers Toxic Waste cleanup lawsuit. In February 1991, the Company was identified as one of many “Potentially Responsible Parties” (PRPS) in the Chatham Brothers toxic waste cleanup site case, filed by the State of California - Environmental Protection Agency, Department of Toxic Substances Control (DTSC) and involved the Harley Pen Company previously owned by the Company.

 
On December 31, 1991, the Company and approximately 90 other companies were named in a formal complaint. The Company joined a group of defendants, each of whom was so notified and which is referred to as Potentially Responsible Parties (PRPs) for the purpose of negotiating with the DTSC and for undertaking remediation of the site. Between 1995 and 1998, the State of California adjusted the estimated cost of remediation on several occasions. As a result, the Company has increased their recorded liability to reflect their share. In January, 1999, the PRP’s consent decree was approved by the Court. As of March 31, 2008 the Company had paid into the PRP Group approximately $1,040,000, which includes the assignment of a $250,000 note receivable with recourse.
   
 
During the past several years, the Company had requested a Hardship Withdrawal Settlement with the PRP group due to the Company’s financial condition. The PRP group had continually denied the Company’s request. In December 2003, the Company again formally requested a Hardship Withdrawal Settlement with the PRP Group. The Company’s proposal was for payment of $240,000 over four years in exchange for complete release from all further legal and financial responsibility related to the environmental liability.

 
On July 16, 2004, the Company entered in a settlement agreement with the Chatham Site PRP Group Trust for a $240,000 payment to be paid as follows: $100,000 on December 31, 2004, $50,000 on December 31, 2005, $50,000 on December 31, 2006 and $40,000 on December 31, 2007. The Company would not be fully released from the environmental liability until the settlement agreement note of $240,000 and the assigned note in the amount of $250,000 were paid in full. During 2007, the assigned note was paid in full.

 
In March 2006, the Company made a payment in the amount of $150,000 related to the settlement agreement note representing the payments due on December 31, 2004 and December 31, 2005. The Company did not make the scheduled payment on December 31, 2006. As of December 31, 2006, the Company owed late payment penalties totaling approximately $20,000 for the years 2004, 2005 and 2006. These penalties were recognized as interest expense for the year ended December 31, 2006 and the liability was accrued as a portion of the environmental reserve included in current liabilities. In December 2007, the Company made a final payment in the amount of $112,000, of which $90,000 represented payment towards the accrued liability and $22,000 represented payment of additional interest for late payments. As a result of this payment and pursuant to the settlement agreement, the Company is not responsible for any additional liability related to this site, other than any new claims. Therefore, the Company removed the remaining liability from its books as of December 31, 2007 and recognized a gain on extinguishment of this debt in the amount of $1,107,000.

Complying with the terms of the note relieves Frawley Corporation from any liability related to the Chatham Site action approved by the State of California in 1999. However, the PRP Group did not indemnify Frawley Corporation for any third party lawsuits related to the Chatham Site cleanup that are not considered in the remediation action plan approved in 1999.

 
In June 2004 the Corporation received a new environmental claim against its former Harley pen division in the amount of approximately $99,000. The claim has been made by the United States Environmental Toxic Agency concerning the Company’s alleged responsibility for the Omega Chemical Superfund Site. During 2006, the Company agreed to pay the liability in installment payments through January 2007. The Company made payments of approximately $52,000 during 2006 and of approximately $26,000 during 2007. In September 2007, the Company was granted a postponement of the additional payments due until March 2009. The balance of approximately $21,000 is included in current liabilities.

ITEM 5:
