We design, assemble, market and distribute premium quality, technologically innovative golf clubs for all skill levels, including Idea a3 and a3 OS irons, Idea a2 and a2 OS irons, Idea Tech OS irons, Idea Pro Irons and Idea a3 and a3 OS, Idea a2 and a2 OS, Idea Tech OS and Idea Pro I-woods, Insight XTD A3 &A3 OS drivers and hybrid-fairway woods, RPM drivers and fairway woods, the Ovation family of drivers, fairway woods and irons, the Tight Lies family of fairway woods, the Redline family of fairway woods and drivers, Tight Lies GT500 and GT3 irons and i-woods, the Tom Watson signature and Puglielli series of wedges, and certain accessories. In addition, under Women's Golf Unlimited we distribute the Lady Fairway and Square 2 brands.

We were incorporated in 1987 and re-domesticated in Delaware in 1990. We completed an internal reorganization in 1997, and we now conduct our operations through several direct and indirect wholly-owned subsidiaries, agencies and distributorships

Segments and Products

Adams Golf operates in a single segment within the golf industry (golf clubs and accessories) and financial information for the segment may be found in the financial statements attached as Exhibits hereto. Specifically, we offer more than one class of product within that segment:

Irons

In June 2007 we launched our Idea a3 line of hybrid iron sets and in September 2007 we launched our Idea a3 OS line of hybrid irons and integrated sets. The a3 irons are offered in an 8 piece men’s, women's and senior set, with three graphite-shafted hybrid irons integrated into the set. The a3 set of irons won a Gold designation in the 2008 Golf Digest Hot List voting, and were the category leader in “Outstanding Technology” in the iron category. The Idea a3 OS irons are offered in 3 different 8 piece configurations—one for men, one for women, and one for seniors. The a3 OS set of irons won a Gold designation in the 2008 Golf Digest Hot List voting, and were the category leader in “Outstanding Function” in the iron category. We also offer 4 different color versions of the Idea a3 OS Women’s 13 piece set. The set includes a 460cc titanium driver, 2 fairway woods, an 8 piece Women’s Idea a3 OS iron set with 6 hybrid irons integrated into the set, a gap wedge, a putter and a bag.

In September 2006 we launched the Idea Tech OS and Idea Pro series’ of integrated hybrid iron sets. The Idea Tech OS irons are offered in an 8 piece men’s set, women’s set and senior’s set. Each set comes with 4 graphite shafted hybrid irons, with a heel biased adjustable weight port for swing weight, shaft, or length adjustment. These high-tech sets also include titanium faces for increased ball speed and more distance and composite crowns for low center of gravity and high launch. The Idea Pro series is offered in an 8 piece men’s set, which includes 2 Idea Pro hybrids and 6 forged irons. The Idea Pro hybrids won the Editor’s Choice in the hybrid category in the 2007 Golf Digest Hot List voting, and the 6 forged irons are crafted with forged carbon 8620 steel for ultimate feel and sound desired by the better players. The Idea Pro line of irons is an integrated set of tour-proven hybrids and forged irons that are marketed to low handicap golfers.

Drivers

We currently offer a variety of different driver models based on the shape, size and material used in the club head. Our current driver heads are made of titanium, alloy and/or carbon fiber, depending on the model. The shafts of our drivers are generally graphite. In February 2007 we introduced our new Insight BUL, Belle and BTY series of drivers. By dramatically shaping and expanding the perimeter of the club head, we created a club that reached 5,000 MOI (Moment of Inertia). Increased MOI generally reduces side spin, increases ball speed and provides greater stability at impact. During the first quarter of 2008, we are launching the Insight XTD driver line. These drivers offer greater distance and maximized ball speed using the Boxer technology and an expanded impact zone of the face. This driver is the official driver of the Long Drivers of America and won a silver designation in the 2008 Golf Digest Hot List voting.

Fairway Woods

In February, 2007 we introduced the Insight BUL, Belle and BTY series of fairway woods. We believe the Insight series of fairway woods provides a material advantage to golfers—the clubs include a one-piece titanium face and crown brazed to a stainless steel body. They are the first and only fairway wood currently manufactured in this manner. The Insight fairway woods won a Gold designation in the 2007 Golf Digest Hot List voting, and were the category leader in “Outstanding Technology” in the fairway wood category. During the first quarter of 2008, we are launching the Insight XTD hybrid-fairway woods line. These hybrid-fairway woods use the Boxer technology and are designed to combine desirable properties of both hybrids and fairway woods. The Insight XTD hybrid-fairway woods won a Gold designation in the 2008 Golf Digest Hot List voting, and were the category leader in “Outstanding Technology” in the fairway wood category. We offer a variety of individual hybrids in the recently introduced Idea a3, a3 OS, Tech OS and Idea Pro lines. These individual hybrids are designed to be easier to hit than conventional long irons. The Idea a3 and a3 OS hybrid irons won a Gold designation in the 2008 Golf Digest Hot List voting, and were the category leader in “Outstanding Technology and Function” in the hybrid category. The Idea Pro hybrid line won the Editor’s Choice in the hybrid category in the 2007 Golf Digest Hot List voting, and is gaining increasing popularity on the PGA, Champion’s, Nationwide and LPGA professional golf tours.

Wedges and Other

As a complement to the Idea irons, we offer the Tom Watson signature wedges with a classic profile and the Puglielli wedges. We also offer a line of putters, golf bags, hats and other accessories.

Design and Development

Our design and development team is responsible for developing, testing and introducing new technologies and product designs. This team is currently led by Tim Reed, Vice President-Research and Development. Prior to joining our company, Mr. Reed spent over 18 years in the golf industry and, most notably, was responsible for all new product introductions at TearDrop Golf Company, which included TearDrop Putters and Tommy Armour and Ram brand golf clubs.

Together with management, the design and development team engages in a four-step process to create new products.
 
4


Market Evaluation - Prior to development of any potential concepts, our management team, in conjunction with the design and development team, performs an evaluation of the current golf market to determine which particular product classes we will pursue for concept development. As a part of the market evaluation, we analyze our current product offerings against current and anticipated competitor products with respect to consumer preferences. To attempt to determine consumer preferences, we utilize our independent sales force, consumer surveys and market intelligence tools that solicit product and design characteristics desired by consumers. Once the consumer product and design characteristics are determined and evaluated, management and the design and development team determine the product classes and types of products that will be pursued for the upcoming season.

Performance Characteristics - For the product classes and the types of products to be offered within those classes, management evaluates the target market for our new concepts and the performance characteristics that are commensurate with the target market. Performance characteristics are always predicated on producing high quality, high performance products. Certain performance characteristics that are evaluated include easy playability, ball flight and spin objectives, desired weight and feel of the product and conformity to U.S. Golf Association ("USGA") golf equipment standards.

Patent Review - We consider patent protection for our technologies and product designs to be an important part of our development strategy; however, we may elect not to seek patent protection for some of our technologies or product designs. We, in conjunction with our patent attorneys, conduct a search of prior art and existing products to determine whether a new product idea may be covered by an existing patent. Patent review, depending upon the complexity of the design involved, generally requires between one and six months to complete; however, this stage of product development typically occurs in conjunction with one or more of the other three R&D steps.

Development - Concurrent with the patent review process, the design and development team begins to develop computer generated working designs incorporating the desired performance characteristics, which are then modeled using in-house rapid prototyping systems. During the development phase, substantial consideration is also given to optimal shaft performance, cosmetics and sound characteristics. Once prototypes are developed, they are subjected to stringent iterative testing requirements to determine if the product will deliver the desired performance. In certain circumstances, prototypes are distributed to consumers to solicit feedback with respect to specific product performance characteristics and consumer perception. Using consumer feedback, subsequent modifications are made to the products to achieve the performance requirements desired by the identified target market.

Historically, the entire process from Market Evaluation through Development has taken from six to twelve months to complete.

Our research and development expenses were approximately $3,698,000, $2,607,000 and $2,285,000 for the years ended December 31, 2007, 2006 and 2005, respectively.

Patents

Our ability to compete effectively in the golf club market may depend on our ability to maintain the proprietary nature of our technologies and products. As of the date hereof, we hold 22 U.S. patents relating to certain products and proprietary technologies and we have 11 patent applications pending. Assuming timely payment of maintenance fees, if any, we expect that the 22 currently issued patents will expire on various dates between 2009 and 2022. We hold patents with respect to the design of the Insight, RPM, Redline, Ovation,Tight Lies fairway wood, the SC Series driver, the Idea and GT irons, including our graphite tipped (GT) shaft, and the Tight Lies ST fairway wood and driver heads. There can be no assurance, however, as to the degree of protection afforded by these or any other patents we hold or as to the likelihood that patents will be issued from the pending patent applications. Moreover, our patents may have limited commercial value or may lack sufficient breadth to adequately protect the aspects of our products to which the patents relate. The U.S. patents we hold do not preclude competitors from developing or marketing products similar to our products in international markets.

There can be no assurance that competitors, many of whom have substantially greater resources than we do and have made substantial investments in competing products, will not apply for and obtain patents that will prevent, limit or interfere with our ability to make and sell our products. We are aware of numerous patents held by third parties that relate to products competitive to us. There is no assurance that these patents would not be used as a basis to challenge the validity of our patent rights, to limit the scope of our patent rights, or to limit our ability to obtain additional or broader patent rights. A successful challenge to the validity of our patents may adversely affect our competitive position. Moreover, there can be no assurance that such patent holders or other third parties will not claim infringement by us with respect to current and future products. Because U.S. patent applications are held and examined in secrecy, it is also possible that presently pending U.S. applications will eventually issue with claims that may be infringed by our products or technologies. The defense and prosecution of patent suits is costly and time-consuming, even if the outcome is favorable. This is particularly true in foreign countries where the expenses associated with such proceedings can be prohibitive. An adverse outcome in the defense of a patent suit could subject us to significant liabilities to third parties, require us and others to cease selling products, or require disputed rights to be licensed from third parties. Such licenses may not be available on satisfactory terms, if at all.

Despite our efforts to protect our patent and other intellectual property rights, unauthorized parties have attempted and are expected to continue to attempt to copy all, or certain aspects of, our products. Policing unauthorized use of our intellectual property rights can be difficult and expensive, and while we generally take appropriate action whenever we discover any of our products or designs have been copied, knock-offs and counterfeit products are a persistent problem in the performance-oriented golf club industry. There can be no assurance that our means of protecting our patent and other intellectual property rights will be adequate.

Raw Materials, Manufacturing and Assembly

We manage all stages of manufacturing, from sourcing to assembly, in order to maintain a high level of product quality and consistency. We establish product specifications, select the material used to produce the components and test the specifications of components we receive.

As part of our quality control program, we review the quality assurance programs at the manufacturing facilities of our component part suppliers to monitor adherence to design specifications. In addition to the quality assurance conducted by the suppliers at their facilities, we also conduct random sampling and perform testing of products received from the suppliers or produced at our facility to ensure consistency with our design specifications. Golf clubs are then built by our assembly personnel using the appropriate component parts.

We have put into place a purchasing procedure that strives to negotiate effective terms with various vendors while continuing to ensure the quality of our components. We are frequently re-evaluating existing vendors while testing potential new vendors for all the various product lines we offer. At any time, we may purchase a substantial majority of our volume of a specific component part from a single vendor, but we continually strive to maintain primary and secondary suppliers for each component part. Substantially all of our fairway wood, driver, iron, i-wood, wedge and putter component parts are manufactured in China. A significant portion of our inventory purchases are from one supplier in China; we purchased approximately 46% and 62% of our total inventory purchased for the years ended December 31, 2007 and 2006, respectively, from this one Chinese supplier.

We could, in the future, experience shortages of components or periods of increased price pressures, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations, financial position and/or liquidity. To date, we have not experienced any material interruptions in supply from any sole supplier.

Marketing

The goals of our marketing efforts are to build our brand identity and drive sales through our retail distribution channels. To accomplish these goals, we currently use golf-specific advertising, engage in promotional activities, and capitalize on our relationships with well known professional golfers.

Endemic Advertising - Our primary advertising efforts focus on golf-specific advertising, which include advertising with television commercials that run during golf tournaments and advertising in golf-related magazines and certain newspapers. We also sponsor developmental professional tours and selected golf tournaments.

Promotional Activities - We engage in a variety of promotional activities to sell and market our products. Such activities have included consumer sweepstakes and promotional giveaways with certain purchases.

Relationships with Professional Golfers – We have entered into endorsement contracts with professional golfers on the PGA, Champions PGA, Nationwide and LPGA Tours and believe that having a presence on these tours promotes the image of our product lines and builds brand awareness. On the PGA Tour we have entered into endorsement agreements with professionals such as Rory Sabbatini, Aaron Baddeley, Tommy "Two Gloves" Gainey and Brad Elder. On the Champions Tour, we have entered into endorsement agreements with Tom Watson, Bernard Langer, Scott Hoch, Brad Bryant, D.A. Weibring, Allen Doyle, Des Smyth, R.W. Eaks, Dana Quigley, and Jerry Pate. On the LPGA Tour, we have entered into endorsement agreements with Brittney Lincicome, Brittany Lang, and Taylor Leon. All of the above contracts have various dates of expiration through 2010 and require the use of certain of our products.

Markets and Methods of Distribution

Our net sales are primarily derived from sales to on- and off- course golf shops, sporting goods retailers, mass merchants and, to a lesser extent, international distributors. No assurances can be given that demand for our current products or the introduction of new products will allow us to achieve historical levels of sales in the future.

Sales to Retailers - We sell a majority of our products to selected retailers. We believe our selective retail distribution strategy helps our retailers maintain profitable margins and maximize sales of our products. For the year ended December 31, 2007, sales to U.S. specialty retailers, mass merchants, sporting goods retailers, and on course accounts accounted for approximately 83% of our total net sales, which remained flat compared to the year ended December 31, 2006. As products mature, they may be sold to alternative channels of distribution, which are not in direct competition with selected retailers for premier product lines.

We maintain a field sales staff that at February 22, 2008, consisted of 64 independent sales representatives, one senior vice president, two regional vice presidents, a key accounts director and three regional sales managers, who are in regular personal contact with our retail accounts (approximately 4,000 retailers). These sales representatives, sales managers and regional vice presidents are supported by nine inside sales representatives who maintain contact with our retailers nationwide. The inside sales representatives also serve in a customer service capacity as we believe that superior customer service can significantly enhance our marketing efforts.

International Sales - International sales are made primarily in Europe, Canada, Japan, South Africa and other Asian regions. International sales in Canada are made through an agency relationship. Sales in Japan are made through an independent distributor. Prior to that date, sales were made through our wholly-owned subsidiary. Sales in the United Kingdom are made through an independent distributor. International sales to other countries throughout the world are made through a network of approximately 33 independent distributors. For the years ended December 31, 2007, 2006 and 2005, international sales accounted for approximately 16.9%, 17.1% and 14.1%, respectively, of our net sales.
 
7


Web Site - We maintain a Web site at www.adamsgolf.com, which allows the visitor to access certain information about our products and heritage, locate retailers, inquire into careers, access corporate information related to corporate governance and news releases, and inquire about contacting us directly. We also maintain www.ladyfairway.com and www.squaretwo.com for information about our Women's Golf Unlimited product lines. We do not currently sell our products via our Web sites.

Unauthorized Distribution and Counterfeit Clubs

Despite our efforts to limit our distribution to selected retailers, some quantities of our products have been found in unapproved outlets or distribution channels, including unapproved retailers conducting business on common internet auction sites. The existence of a "gray market" in our products can undermine the sales of authorized retailers, our agents and our foreign wholesale distributors who promote and support our products and can injure our image in the minds of our customers and consumers. We make efforts to limit or deter unauthorized distribution of our products, but do not believe the unauthorized distribution of our products can be totally eliminated. We do not believe that the unauthorized distribution of our clubs has had, or will have, a material adverse effect on our results of operations, financial condition or competitive position, although there can be no assurance as to future effects resulting from the unauthorized distribution of our products.

In addition, we are occasionally made aware of the existence of counterfeit copies of our golf clubs, particularly in foreign markets. We take action in these situations through local authorities and legal counsel where practical. We do not believe that the availability of counterfeit clubs has had or will have a material adverse effect on our results of operations, financial condition and/or competitive position, although there can be no assurance as to future effects resulting from the unauthorized distribution of our products.

Industry Specific Requirements

We perform ongoing credit evaluation of our wholesale customers' financial condition and generally provide credit without the requirement of collateral from these customers. We measure each customer's financial strength using various key aspects such as, but not limited to, the customer's overall credit risk (via Dun and Bradstreet reports), payment history, track record for meeting payment plans, industry communications, the portion of the customer’s balance that is past due and other various items. We also look at the overall aging of the receivables in total and relative to prior periods to determine the appropriate reserve requirements. Periods will fluctuate depending on the strength of the customers and the change in mix of customer and their respective strength could affect the reserve disproportionately compared to the total change in the accounts receivable balance. We believe we have adequate reserves for potential credit losses. Due to industry sensitivity to consumer buying trends and available disposable income, we have in the past extended payment terms for specific retail customers. Issuance of these terms (i.e. greater than 30 days or specific dating) is dependent on our relationship with the customer and the customer's payment history. Payment terms are extended to selected customers typically during off-peak times in the year in order to promote our brand name and to assure adequate product availability often to coincide with planned promotions or advertising campaigns. Although a significant amount of our sales are not affected by these terms, the extended terms do have a negative impact on our financial position and liquidity. We expect to continue to selectively offer extended payment terms in the future, depending upon known industry trends and our financial condition. The loss of a significant individual customer or a combination of significant customers would have a material adverse effect on our consolidated revenues, results of operations, financial condition and competitive market position.

In addition to extended payment terms, the nature of the industry also requires that we carry a substantial level of inventory due to the lead times associated with purchasing components overseas coupled with the seasonality of customer demand. Our inventory balances were approximately $28,745,000 and $24,651,000 at December 31, 2007 and 2006, respectively. The increase in inventory levels over these dates is primarily a result of incremental purchasing of inventory for recently introduced product lines. A significant portion of our inventory purchases are from suppliers who are located predominately in China. We do not anticipate any changes in the relationships with our suppliers; however, if such change were to occur, we believe we would have alternative sources available, although replacing product could take six to nine months.

Major Customers

We are currently dependent on four customers, which collectively comprised approximately 25.5% of net revenues for the year ended December 31, 2007. Of these customers, one individual customer represented greater than 5% but less than 10% of net revenues for the year ended December 31, 2007, and one customer represented greater than 10% but less than 15% of net revenues for the year ended December 31, 2007.  For the year ended December 31, 2006, four customers comprised approximately 25.2% of net revenues. Of these customers, three customers individually represented greater than 5% but less then 10% of net revenues, while no customer represented greater than 10% of net revenues for the year ended December 31, 2006. For the year ended December 31, 2005, five customers comprised approximately 26.0% of net revenues. Of these customers, no customer individually represented greater than 5% but less then 10% of net revenues, and one customer represented greater than 10% but less then 15% of net revenues for the year ended December 31, 2005. The loss of one of these customers or a combination of these customers would have a material adverse effect on our consolidated revenues, results of operations, financial condition and competitive market position.

Seasonality and Quarterly Fluctuations

Golf generally is regarded as a warm weather sport, and net sales of golf equipment have been historically strongest for us during the first and second quarters. In addition, net sales of golf clubs are dependent on discretionary consumer spending, which may be affected by general economic conditions. A decrease in consumer spending generally could result in decreased spending on golf equipment, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, operating results and/or financial condition. In addition, our future results of operations could be affected by a number of other factors, such as unseasonable weather patterns and natural disasters such as hurricanes, which could interrupt our sales patterns and could generate hardships for customers in the affected area, demand for and market acceptance of our existing and future products; new product introductions by our competitors; competitive pressures resulting in lower than expected selling prices; and the volume of orders that are received and which can be fulfilled in a quarter. Any one or more of these factors could adversely affect us or result in us failing to achieve our expectations as to future sales or operating results.

Because most operating expenses are relatively fixed in the short term, we may be unable to adjust spending sufficiently in a timely manner to compensate for any unexpected sales shortfall that could materially adversely affect quarterly results of operations and liquidity. If technological advances by competitors or other competitive factors require us to invest significantly greater resources than anticipated in research and development or sales and marketing efforts, our business, operating results and/or financial condition could be materially adversely affected. Accordingly, we believe that period-to-period comparisons of our results of operations should not be relied upon as an indication of future performance. In addition, the results of any quarter are not indicative of results to be expected for a full fiscal year. As a result of fluctuating operating results or other factors discussed in this report, in certain future quarters our results of operations may be below the expectations of public market analysts or investors. In such event, the market price of our common stock could be materially adversely affected.

Backlog

The amount of our order backlog at any particular time is affected by a number of factors, including seasonality and scheduling of the manufacturing and shipment of products. At February 22, 2008, we had current backorders of $3,238,000, or 3.4% of total net sales for the year ended December 31, 2007, and orders to be fulfilled at a future date, not to exceed the current year, of $8,879,000, or 9.4% of total net sales for the year ended December 31, 2007. At February 22, 2007, we had current backorders of $4,774,000, or 6.3% of total net sales for the year ended December 31, 2006, and orders to be fulfilled at a future date, not to exceed the current year, of $3,756,000, or 4.9% of total net sales for the year ended December 31, 2006. The current decrease in backorders is due to our being in a favorable inventory position on our a3 and a3 OS irons sets and hybrids this year. We do not anticipate that a significant level of orders will remain unfilled within the current fiscal year. In addition, we believe that the amount of our backlog is not an appropriate indicator of future sales levels.

Competition

The golf club market is highly competitive. We compete with a number of established golf club manufacturers, some of which have greater financial and other resources than us. Our competitors include Callaway Golf Company, adidas-Salomon AG (Taylor Made - adidas Golf), Nike, Inc. (Nike Golf), Fortune Brands, Inc. (Titleist and Cobra) and Karsten Assembly Company (PING), among others. We compete primarily on the basis of performance, brand name recognition, quality and price. We believe that our ability to market our products through multiple distribution channels, including on- and off- course golf shops and other retailers, is important to the manner in which we compete. The purchasing decisions of many golfers are often the result of highly subjective preferences, which can be influenced by many factors, including, among others, advertising, media, promotions and product endorsements. These preferences may also be subject to rapid and unanticipated changes. We could face substantial competition from existing or new competitors who introduce and successfully promote golf clubs that achieve market acceptance. Such competition could result in significant price erosion or increased promotional expenditures, either of which could have a material adverse effect on our business, operating results and/or financial condition. There can be no assurance that we will be able to compete successfully against current and future sources of competition or that our business, operating results and/or financial condition will not be adversely affected by increased competition in the markets in which we operate.

The golf club industry is generally characterized by rapid and widespread imitation of popular technologies, designs and product concepts. Due to the success of the Tight Lies fairway woods, several competitors introduced products similar to the Tight Lies fairway woods. Should our recently introduced product lines achieve widespread market success, it is reasonable to expect that our current and future competitors would move quickly to introduce similar products that would directly compete with the new product lines. We may face competition from manufacturers introducing other new or innovative products or successfully promoting golf clubs that achieve market acceptance. The failure to successfully compete in the future could result in a material deterioration of customer loyalty and our image, and could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations, financial position and/or liquidity.

The introduction of new products by us or our competitors can be expected to result in closeouts of existing inventories at both the wholesale and retail levels. Such closeouts are likely to result in reduced margins on the sale of older products, as well as reduced sales of new products given the availability of older products at lower prices. As the Idea a3 and a3 OS product line of irons and the Insight drivers and fairway woods were introduced, older product lines such as the Idea a2 and a2 OS Irons, RPM and Redline fairway woods and drivers experienced reductions in price at both wholesale and retail levels.

Foreign net sales are generated in various regions including, but not limited to, Canada (a majority of our foreign sales), Europe, Japan, Australia, South Africa, and South America. A change in our relationship with one or more of the customers or distributors could negatively impact the volume of foreign sales.

Our business is subject to the risks generally associated with doing business abroad, such as foreign government relations, foreign consumer preferences, import and export control, political unrest disruptions or delays in shipments and changes in economic conditions and fluctuation in exchange rates in which we purchase components or sell our products. Recent foreign events, including, without limitation, continuing U.S. military operations and the resulting instability in Iraq, could potentially cause a delay in imports or exports due to heightened security with customs.

Employees

At February 22, 2007, we had 155 full-time employees including 40 engaged in production, 23 in order fulfillment, 30 in research and development and quality control, 9 in sales support and 53 in management and administration. Our employees are not unionized. We believe that our relations with our employees are good.

Item 1A. Risk Factors.

The financial statements contained in this report and the related discussions describe and analyze our financial performance and condition for the periods indicated. For the most part, this information is historical. Our prior results are not necessarily indicative of our future performance or financial condition. We, therefore, have included in this report a discussion of certain factors which could affect our future performance or financial condition. These factors could cause our future performance or financial condition to differ materially from our prior performance or financial condition or from our expectations or estimates of our future performance or financial condition.

Dependence on New Product Introductions; Uncertain Consumer Acceptance

Our ultimate success depends, in large part, on our ability to successfully develop and introduce new products widely accepted in the marketplace. Historically, a large portion of new golf club technologies and product designs have been met with consumer rejection. Certain products we previously introduced have not met the level of consumer acceptance anticipated by management. No assurance can be given that our current or future products will be met with consumer acceptance. Failure by us to timely identify and develop innovative new products that achieve widespread market acceptance would adversely affect our continued success and viability. Additionally, successful technologies, designs and product concepts are likely to be copied by competitors. Accordingly, our operating results could fluctuate as a result of the amount, timing, and market acceptance of new product introductions by us or our competitors. If we are unable to develop new products that will ultimately be widely accepted by a wide range of customers, it will have a material adverse effect on our business and results of operations.

The design of new golf clubs is also greatly influenced by the rules and interpretations of the USGA. Although the golf equipment standards established by the USGA generally apply only to competitive events sanctioned by the organization, we believe that it is critical for our future success that new clubs we introduce comply with USGA standards. We invest significant resources in the development of new products and efforts to comply with USGA standards may hinder or delay development of the product and adversely effect revenues and customer demand. Additionally, increased costs associated with complying with USGA standards could reduce margins and adversely affect the results of operations.

Decreasing Amount of Golf Played by Consumers

Our revenues are completely driven from sales of golf related products and the demand for these products is directly related to the number of golfers and rounds of golf being played each year and overall popularity of golf. If golf participation or the number of rounds of golf played decreases, sales of our products may be adversely affected. In addition, if the amount of exposure of our products through media and advertising such as television coverage of events or the popularity of magazines we advertise in were to decrease, our sales could be adversely affected.

Increasing Competition

The golf club market is highly competitive. We compete with a number of established golf club manufacturers, some of which have greater financial and other resources than we have. Our competitors include Callaway Golf Company, adidas-Salomon AG (Taylor Made - adidas Golf), Nike, Inc. (Nike Golf), Fortune Brands, Inc. (Titleist and Cobra) and Karsten Assembly Company (PING), among others. We compete primarily on the basis of performance, brand name recognition, quality and price. We believe that our ability to market our products through multiple distribution channels, including on- and off- course golf shops and other retailers, is important to the manner in which we compete. The purchasing decisions of many golfers are often the result of highly subjective preferences, which can be influenced by many factors, including, among others, advertising, media, promotions and product endorsements. These preferences may also be subject to rapid and unanticipated changes. We could face substantial competition from existing or new competitors who introduce and successfully promote golf clubs that achieve market acceptance. Such competition could result in significant price erosion or increased promotional expenditures, either of which could have a material adverse effect on our business, operating results and/or financial condition. There can be no assurance that we will be able to compete successfully against current and future sources of competition or that our business, operating results and/or financial condition will not be adversely affected by increased competition in the markets in which we operate.

The golf club industry is generally characterized by rapid and widespread imitation of popular technologies, designs and product concepts. Due to the success of the Tight Lies fairway woods, several competitors introduced products similar to the Tight Lies fairway woods. Should our recently introduced product lines achieve widespread market success, it is reasonable to expect that our current and future competitors would move quickly to introduce similar products that would directly compete with the new product lines. We may face competition from manufacturers introducing other new or innovative products or successfully promoting golf clubs that achieve market acceptance. Accordingly, our operating results could fluctuate as a result of the amount, timing and market acceptance of new products introduced by us or our competitors. The failure to successfully compete in the future could result in a material deterioration of customer loyalty and our image, and could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations, financial position and/or liquidity.

Our introduction of new products or our competitor's introductions can be expected to result in closeouts of existing inventories at both the wholesale and retail levels. Such closeouts are likely to result in reduced margins on the sale of older products, as well as reduced sales of new products given the availability of older products at lower prices. As the Idea a3 and a3 OS product line of irons and the Insight drivers and fairway woods were introduced, older product lines such as the Idea a2 and a2 OS Irons, RPM and Redline fairway woods and drivers experienced reductions in price at both wholesale and retail levels.

Risks Associated with Intellectual Property Protection

Imitation of popular club design is widespread in the golf industry. No assurance can be given that other golf club manufacturers will not be able to successfully sell golf clubs that imitate our products without infringing on our copyrights, patents, trademarks or trade dress. Many of our competitors have obtained patent, trademark, copyright or other protection of intellectual property rights pertaining to golf clubs. No assurance can be given that we will not be adversely affected by the assertion by competitors that our designs infringe on such competitor's intellectual property rights. Litigation in respect to patents or other intellectual property matters, whether with or without merit, could be time-consuming to defend, result in substantial costs and diversion of management and other resources, cause delays or other problems in the marketing and sales of our products, or require us to enter into royalty or licensing agreements, any or all of which could have a material adverse effect on our business, operating results and financial condition. We have had to defend against infringement claims in the past and will likely be subject to such claims in the future. Such claims could result in alteration or withdrawal of our existing products and delayed introduction of new products.

Our attempts to maintain the secrecy of our confidential business information, include but are not limited to, engaging in the practice of having prospective vendors and suppliers sign confidentiality agreements when producing components of new technology. No assurance can be given that our confidential business information will be adequately protected in all instances. The unauthorized use of our confidential business information could adversely affect us.
 
12


Uncertainty Regarding Continuation of Profitability

While we generated net income in each of the past five fiscal years, we have not done so consistently prior to that period and experienced significant losses prior to the year ended December 31, 2003. There can be no assurance that we will be able to increase or maintain revenues or continue such profitability on a quarterly or annual basis in the future. An inability to continue such improvements in our financial performance could jeopardize our ability to develop, enhance, and market products, retain qualified personnel, and take advantage of future opportunities or respond to competitive pressures.

Need for Additional Capital

No assurances can be given that we will have sufficient cash resources beyond twelve months or to fund our operations over a length of time. It is possible that the only sources of funding are current cash reserves, projected cash flows from operations and up to $15.0 million of borrowings available under our revolving credit facility. Historically, we have funded capital expenditures for operations through cash flow from operations. To the extent our cash requirements or assumptions change, we may have to raise additional capital and/or further curtail our operating expenses, including further operational restructurings. If we need to raise additional funds through the issuance of equity securities, the percentage ownership of the stockholders of our Company would be reduced, stockholders could experience additional dilution, and/or such equity securities could have rights, preferences or privileges senior to our Company's common stock. Nevertheless, given the current market price for our Company's common stock and the state of the capital markets generally, we do not expect that we would be able to raise funds through the issuance of our capital stock in the foreseeable future. We may also find it difficult to secure additional debt financing beyond our current credit facility. There can be no assurance that financing will be available if needed or if available on terms favorable to us, or at all. Accordingly, it is possible that the only sources of funding are current cash reserves, projected cash flows from operations and up to $15.0 million of borrowings available under our revolving credit facility.

Dependence on Key Personnel and Endorsements

Our success depends to an extent upon the performance of our management team, which includes our Chief Executive Officer and President, Oliver G. (Chip) Brewer, III, who participates in all aspects of our operations, including product development and sales efforts. The loss or unavailability of Mr. Brewer could adversely affect our business and prospects. In addition, Mr. Tim Reed joined the management team in 2000 in the capacity of Vice President of Research and Development. If Mr. Reed is unable to continue to lead his team to develop innovative products, it could also adversely affect our business. With the exception of our Company's Chairman of the Board of Directors, B.H. (Barney) Adams, and Mr. Brewer, none of our Company's officers and employees are bound by employment agreements, and the relations of such officers and employees are, therefore, at will. We established key-men life insurance policies on the lives of Mr. Brewer and Mr. Reed; however, there can be no assurance that the proceeds of these policies could adequately compensate us for the loss of their services. In addition, there is strong competition for qualified personnel in the golf club industry, and the inability to continue to attract, retain and motivate other key personnel could adversely affect our business, operating results and/or financial condition.

On the PGA Tour we have entered into endorsement agreements with professionals such as Rory Sabbatini, Aaron Baddeley, Tommy "Two Gloves" Gainey and Brad Elder. On the Champions Tour, we have entered into endorsement agreements with Tom Watson, Bernard Langer, Scott Hoch, Brad Bryant, D.A. Weibring, Allen Doyle, Des Smyth, R.W. Eaks, Dana Quigley, and Jerry Pate. On the LPGA Tour, we have entered into endorsement agreements with Brittney Lincicome, Brittany Lang, and Taylor Leon. All of the above contracts have various dates of expiration through 2010 and require the use of certain of our products. The loss of one or more of these endorsement arrangements could adversely affect our marketing and sales efforts and, accordingly, our business, operating results and/or financial condition. From time to time, we negotiate with and sign endorsement contracts with either existing or new tour players. As is typical in the golf industry, generally the agreements with these professional golfers do not necessarily require that they use our golf clubs at all times during the terms of the respective agreements, including, in certain circumstances, at times when we are required to make payments to them. The failure of certain individuals to use our products on one or more occasions has resulted in negative publicity involving us. No assurance can be given that our business would not be adversely affected in a material way by negative publicity or by the failure of our known professional endorsers to carry and use our products.
 
13


Effectiveness of our Marketing Strategy

We have designed our marketing strategy to include advertising efforts in multiple media avenues such as television airtime on golf related events, product education for the consumer through an internet website, publications including periodicals and brochures, and in store media such as point of purchase displays and product introduction fact sheets. For the years ended December 31, 2007, 2006 and 2005, we spent approximately $5.7 million, $5.6 million and $5.0 million, respectively, on the above listed marketing efforts. There can be no assurances that our marketing strategy will be effective or that increases in the levels of investments in advertising spending will result in material fluctuations in the sales of our products.

Source of Supply

A significant portion of our inventory purchases are from one supplier in China; we purchased approximately 46% and 62% of our total inventory purchased for the years ended December 31, 2007 and 2006, respectively, from this one Chinese supplier.   Substantially all of our fairway wood, driver, iron, i-wood, wedge and putter component parts are manufactured in China and Taiwan. We could, in the future, experience shortages of components for reasons including but not limited to the supplier’s production capacity or materials shortages, or periods of increased price pressures, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations, financial position and/or liquidity.

Sufficient Inventory Levels

In addition to extended payment terms to our customers, the nature of the industry also requires that we carry a substantial level of inventory due to the lead times associated with purchasing components overseas coupled with the seasonality of customer demand. Our inventory balances were approximately $28,745,000 and $24,651,000 at December 31, 2007 and December 31, 2006, respectively. If we were unable to maintain sufficient inventory to meet customer demand on a timely basis or provide have sufficient capacity to assemble the products at our facility, the effect could result in cancellation of customer orders, loss of customers, and damage to our reputation. In addition, carrying a substantial level of inventory has an adverse effect on our financial position and liquidity.

Accounts Receivable Customer Terms

Due to industry sensitivity to consumer buying trends and available disposable income, we have in the past extended payment terms for specific retail customers. Issuance of these terms (i.e. greater than 30 days or specific dating) is dependent on our relationship with the customer and the customer's payment history typically during off-peak times in the year. These extended terms do have a negative impact on our financial position and liquidity. In addition, the reserves we establish may not be adequate in the event that the customer's financial strength weakens significantly. In addition, the customer base may shrink and thus could adversely affect our net sales along with increased credit risk that could result adversely effect to our financial condition.

Seasonality and Quarterly Fluctuations

Golf generally is regarded as a warm weather sport, and net sales of golf equipment have been historically strongest for us during the first and second quarters. In addition, net sales of golf clubs are dependent on discretionary consumer spending, which may be affected by general economic conditions. A decrease in consumer spending generally could result in decreased spending on golf equipment, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, operating results and/or financial condition. In addition, our future results of operations could be affected by a number of other factors, such as unseasonable weather patterns and natural disasters such as hurricanes, which could interrupt the sales patterns and could generate hardships for customers in the effected area, demand for and market acceptance of our existing and future products; new product introductions by our competitors; competitive pressures resulting in lower than expected selling prices; and the volume of orders that are received and that can be fulfilled in a quarter. Any one or more of these factors could adversely affect us or result in us failing to achieve our expectations as to future sales or operating results.
 
14


Because most operating expenses are relatively fixed in the short term, we may be unable to adjust spending sufficiently in a timely manner to compensate for any unexpected sales shortfall that could materially adversely affect quarterly results of operations and liquidity. If technological advances by competitors or other competitive factors require us to invest significantly greater resources than anticipated in research and development or sales and marketing efforts, our business, operating results and/or financial condition could be materially adversely affected. Accordingly, we believe that period-to-period comparisons of our results of operations should not be relied upon as an indication of future performance. In addition, the results of any quarter are not indicative of results to be expected for a full fiscal year. As a result of fluctuating operating results or other factors discussed in this report, in certain future quarters our results of operations may be below the expectations of public market analysts or investors. In such event, the market price of our common stock could be materially adversely affected.

Rapid Growth, Increased Demand for Product

If we are successful in obtaining rapid market growth for various golf clubs, we may be required to deliver large volumes of quality products to customers on a timely basis which could potentially require us to increase the production facility, increase purchasing of raw materials or finished goods, increase the size of the workforce, expand our quality control capabilities, or incur additional expenses associated with sudden increases in demand. Any combination of one or more of the listed factors could have a materially adverse effect on our operations and financial position.

Adequate Product Warranty Reserves

We provide a limited one year product warranty on all of our golf clubs. Significant increases in the incidence of such claims may adversely affect our sales and our reputation with consumers. We establish reserves for warranty claims. There can be no assurance that this reserve will be sufficient if we were to experience an unexpectedly high incidence of problems with our products.

Unauthorized Distribution and Counterfeit Clubs

Some quantities of our products have been found in unapproved outlets or distribution channels, including unapproved retailers conducting business on common internet auction sites. The existence of a "gray market" in our products can undermine the sales of authorized retailers and foreign wholesale distributors who promote and support our products and can injure our image in the minds of our customers and consumers. We do not believe the unauthorized distribution of our products can be totally eliminated. There can be no assurances that unauthorized distribution of our clubs will not have a material adverse effect on our results of operations, financial condition and/or competitive position.

In addition, we are occasionally made aware of the existence of counterfeit copies of our golf clubs, particularly in foreign markets. We take action in these situations through local authorities and legal counsel where practical. However, the inability to effectively deter counterfeit efforts could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations, financial condition and/or competitive position.

Certain Risks of Conducting Business Abroad

Our Company imports a significant portion of our component parts, including heads, shafts, headcovers, and grips from companies in China and Taiwan. In addition, we sell our products to certain distributors located outside the United States. Our international business is currently centered in Canada, Europe, South Africa and Asia, and our management intends to focus our international efforts through agency and distributor relationships. International sales accounted for 17% of our net sales for the years ended December 31, 2007 and December 31, 2006. Our business is subject to the risks generally associated with doing business abroad, such as foreign government relations, foreign consumer preferences, import and export control, political unrest, disruptions or delays in shipments and changes in economic conditions and exchange rates in countries in which we purchase components or sell our products. Recent foreign events, including, without limitation, continuing U.S. military operations and the resulting instability in Iraq, could potentially cause a delay in imports or exports due to heightened security with customs. In addition, by conducting business abroad, we could be adversely affected by the change in foreign exchange rates amongst the countries and the result could adversely affect our financial condition.

Risks associated with the Purchase of Assets of Women’s Golf Unlimited

In connection with the purchase of the assets (the “WGU Assets”) from Women’s Golf Unlimited, Inc. (“WGU”), we granted WGU a limited license to use certain intellectual property included in the WGU Assets (the “WGU Marks”). The limited license allows WGU to sell certain inventory that it owned at the time the license was granted and to collect WGU’s outstanding accounts receivable. We have little or no control over WGU with respect to the terms of the sale of WGU’s existing inventory, including, without limitation, price, quantity, potential customers, and geographic area of sale. If WGU sells the existing inventory at low prices or takes any other action that would impair the WGU Assets or brand, the WGU Assets and brand that we purchased may lose value in the market. In addition, the loss of value of the WGU assets and brand may hurt our relationship with resellers and distributors that have distributed in the past or would distribute in the future products under the Women’s Golf Unlimited brand. We can provide no assurances that we will be able to maintain the WGU Assets or the Women’s Golf Unlimited brand. Although we did not assume any liabilities when we purchased the assets of WGU, we will continue to sell products under the WGU brand and therefore may be subject to claims for damages, liabilities or other obligations from the past operations of WGU. Even if we are successful in our defense against such claims, we may incur defense costs and spend management time and resources in defending against such claims.

Reliance on Third Parties for Delivery

We use United Parcel Services (UPS) for substantially all outbound shipments of our products in the United States. We use other freight lines and larger air carriers for large domestic shipments and international shipments. In addition, many of the components we use to build our products are shipped via air and ocean carriers from overseas. If there were a significant interruption in services from one or more of these providers, we might be unable to engage alternative suppliers to deliver our products or timely provide the necessary components for production in a cost efficient manner. This interruption could have a material adverse effect on our financial results.

Risks of Adequate Insurance Coverage

We procure various insurance policies to cover different aspects of our business, including but not limited to, property, commercial liability, workers compensation, business interruption, foreign liabilities, auto, crime, employment practices and directors' and officers' Insurance. Although we obtain various insurance policies, unforeseen situations or events may arise that could limit the amount or types of insurance coverage.

Currently, we have potential exposure in our directors' and officers' insurance policy covering the time period of the class action lawsuit, where our third layer of coverage for the $5 million layer between $15 million and $20 million is currently being denied by Zurich, as they claim that we did not notify them timely in the class action lawsuit. On August 7, 2007, TIG Insurance Co ("TIG"), which provided insurance coverage totaling $7.5 million for the layer of exposure between $7.5 million and $15 million, informed us that it was reserving its rights to deny coverage, based on, among other things, certain exclusions in the policy and recent legal authority holding that damages and settlements arising out of Section 11 claims are uninsured loss. Additionally, our directors' and officers' insurance policy covering the time period of the class action lawsuit has an endorsement that limits the defense costs covered under the policy for the underwriters of the IPO to $1 million, and at this time the underwriters' attorneys have exhausted this $1 million sublimit. As of March 7, 2008, the total amount of outstanding underwriter defense costs was just less than $1.4 million. To the extent that our Company is liable for any material amounts denied under or in excess of our directors' and officers' insurance, or any other insurance policy for that matter, it could have a material effect on our business and our results of operations.

Risks Associated with the Price of our Common Stock

The SEC has adopted regulations which generally define a "penny stock" to be an equity security that has a market price of less than $5.00 per share or an exercise price of less than $5.00 per share, subject to specific exemptions. The market price of our common stock prior to our reverse stock split on February 19, 2008 was less than $5.00 per share and if the market price of our common stock drops below $5.00 again, it may be designated as a "penny stock" according to SEC rules. This designation requires any broker or dealer selling these securities to disclose certain information concerning the transaction, obtain a written agreement from the purchaser and determine that the purchaser is reasonably suitable to purchase the securities. These rules may restrict the ability of brokers or dealers to sell our common stock and may affect the ability of investors to sell their shares.

Anti-Takeover Provisions

Our Certificate of Incorporation and Amended and Restated Bylaws contain, among other things, provisions establishing a classified Board of Directors, authorizing shares of preferred stock with respect to which our Board of Directors have the power to fix the rights, preferences, privileges and restrictions without any further vote or action by the stockholders, requiring that all stockholder action be taken at a stockholders' meeting and establishing certain advance notice requirements in order for stockholder proposals or director nominations to be considered at such meetings. In addition, we are subject to the anti-takeover provisions of Section 203 of the Delaware General Corporation Law. In general this statute prohibits a publicly-held Delaware corporation from engaging in a "business combination" with an "interested stockholder" for a period of three years after the date of the transaction in which the person became an interested stockholder, unless the business combination is approved in a prescribed manner. Such provision could delay, deter or prevent a merger, consolidation, tender offer, or other business combination or change of control involving our Company that some or a majority of our stockholders might consider to be in their best interest, including offers or attempted takeovers that might otherwise result in such stockholders receiving a premium over the market price for the common stock. The potential issuance of preferred stock may have the effect of delaying, deferring or preventing a change of control, may discourage bids for the common stock at a premium over the market price of the common stock and may adversely affect the market price of and voting and other rights of the holders of the common stock. We have not issued and currently have no plans to issue shares of preferred stock.

Item 2. Properties.

Our administrative offices and assembly facilities currently occupy approximately 65,000 square feet of space in Plano, Texas. This facility is leased by us pursuant to a lease agreement expiring in 2008 and may be extended for an additional five years. We maintain the right to terminate the lease if we move to a larger facility owned by the current lessor. Additionally, we have a second location for our warehouse facilities occupying another 53,000 square feet of warehouse space in Plano, Texas, conveniently located to our existing administration and assembly facility. This facility is leased by us pursuant to a lease agreement expiring in 2010. We believe that our current facilities encompassing both locations will be sufficient for the foreseeable future.

Item 3. Legal Proceedings.

Beginning in June 1999, the first of seven class action lawsuits was filed against us, certain of our current and former officers and directors, and the three underwriters of our initial public offering ("IPO") in the United States District Court of the District of Delaware. The complaints alleged violations of Sections 11, 12(a)(2) and 15 of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, in connection with our IPO. In particular, the complaints alleged that our prospectus, which became effective July 9, 1998, was materially false and misleading. The operative complaint was filed on January 24, 2006, and it alleges that the prospectus failed to disclose that unauthorized distribution of our products (gray market sales) threatened our long-term profits and that we engaged in questionable sales practices (including double shipping and unlimited rights of return), which threatened post-IPO financial results. Discovery closed on August 11, 2006. On November 21, 2006, all summary-judgment briefing was completed. On December 13, 2006, we learned that the Delaware District Court judge whom the case was set before was elevated to the United States Court of Appeals for the Third Circuit. On December 15, 2006, we were notified that our case was assigned to the vacant judicial position and that all proceedings had been postponed until a new judge was confirmed, and there was no trial date set at this time. On February 7, 2008, we were notified that our case has been reassigned to Chief Judge Gregory M. Sleet. There has been no scheduling conference set yet, and there is no trial date set at this time.

We maintain directors' and officers' ("D&O") and corporate liability insurance to cover certain risks associated with these securities claims filed against us or our directors and officers. During the period covering the class action lawsuit, we maintained insurance from multiple carriers, each insuring a different layer of exposure, up to a total of $50 million. In addition, we have met the financial deductible of our directors' and officers' insurance policy for the period covering the time the class action lawsuit was filed. On March 30, 2006, Zurich American Insurance Company, which provided insurance coverage totaling $5 million for the layer of exposure between $15 million and $20 million, notified us that it was denying coverage due to the fact that it was allegedly not timely notified of the class action lawsuit.  On October 11, 2007, we filed a suit against our former insurance broker, Thilman & Filipini, LLC ("T&F"), for various claims related to T&F's alleged failure to notify Zurich of the class action lawsuit. Depending on the outcome of this proceeding, based on the previously disclosed agreement with Chubb & Son ("Chubb"), a division of Federal Insurance Company ("Federal"),which is described below, we could be required to pay Zurich's $5 million limit of liability in cash before the layers of insurance coverage excess to the Zurich layer attach. We previously disclosed that Chubb had notified us that coverage under the Federal policy, which provided insurance coverage totaling $10 million for the layer of exposure between $20 million and $30 million, and the Executive Risk Indemnity Inc. ("ERII") policy, which provided insurance coverage totaling $10 million for the layer of exposure between $40 million and $50 million, would attach only if the underlying limits are exhausted by payment from the underlying insurance carriers. On June 18, 2007, Chubb notified us that Federal and ERII will not require that Zurich pay the full mount of its limit of liability before the Federal and ERII policies attach, and it confirmed that Chubb will accept payment in cash by our company of Zurich's limit of liability to satisfy this requirement, so long as such payment is for covered loss. On August 7, 2007, TIG Insurance Co ("TIG"), which provided insurance coverage totaling $7.5 million for the layer of exposure between $7.5 million and $15 million, informed us that it was reserving its rights to deny coverage, based on, among other things, certain exclusions in the policy and recent legal authority holding that damages and settlements arising out of Section 11 claims are uninsured loss. We disagree with TIG's interpretation of the policy language and legal authority, and negotiations on this issue continue. At this point in the legal proceedings, we cannot predict with any certainty the outcome of the matter, per the guidance in SFAS 5, and thus can not reasonably estimate future liability on the conclusion of the events, if any.

The underwriters for the IPO are also defendants in the securities class action. The underwriting agreement that we entered into with the underwriters in connection with the IPO contains an indemnification clause, providing for indemnification against any loss, including defense costs, arising out of the IPO. After the first lawsuit was filed, the underwriters requested indemnification under the agreement. Our D&O insurance policy included an endorsement providing $1 million to cover indemnification of the underwriters. Our D&O insurer has notified the underwriters of the exhaustion of the $1 million sublimit. We believe that we have no current obligation to pay the underwriters' defense costs. We believe that the applicable case law provides that the earliest possible time that an obligation to indemnify might exist is after a court has decided conclusively that the underwriters are without fault under the federal securities laws. The litigation is not at that stage yet. As of March 7, 2008, the total amount of outstanding underwriter defense costs was just less than $1.4 million. At this time, the underwriters are not able to predict with certainty the amount of defense costs they expect to incur going forward, but it is likely they will incur additional costs before this matter is concluded. At this time, we cannot predict with any certainty the outcome of this indemnification issue, per the guidance in SFAS 5, and thus cannot reasonably estimate future liability on the conclusion of the events, if any.

From time to time, we are engaged in various other legal proceedings in the normal course of business. The ultimate liability, if any, for the aggregate amounts claimed cannot be determined at this time.

PART II

Item 5. Market for Registrant's Common Equity and Related Stockholder Matters.

Our common stock is currently listed and traded on the OTC Bulletin Board ("OTCBB") under the symbol "ADGF.OB." The prices in the table below represent the quarterly high and low sales price for our common stock as reported by the OTCBB. All price quotations represent prices between dealers, without retail mark-ups, mark-downs or commissions and may not represent actual transactions.

On February 19, 2008 we completed a one-for-four reverse stock split resulting in our total shares issued and outstanding and outstanding stock options decreasing in a one-to-four ratio. Our symbol then changed from "ADGO.OB" to "ADGF.OB". The above table represents values restated as a result of the reverse stock split. On March 7, 2008, the last reported sale price of the common stock on the OTCBB was $9.00 per share. At March 7, 2008, we had approximately 890 stockholders based on the number of holders of record and an estimate of the number of individual participants represented by security position listings.

Our listing on the OTCBB could adversely affect the ability or willingness of investors to purchase the common stock, which, in turn, would likely severely affect the market liquidity of our securities. Given the current market price for our common stock and the state of the capital markets generally, we do not expect that we would be able to raise funds through the issuance of our capital stock. No dividends have been declared or paid relating to our common stock, nor do we anticipate declaring dividends in the foreseeable future. The current credit facility does not limit the declaring or payment of dividends unless we are in default of the facility.

Item 7. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

Overview

We design, assemble, market and distribute premium quality, technologically innovative golf clubs for all skill levels. Our net sales are primarily derived from sales to on- and off- course golf shops and sporting goods retailers and, to a lesser extent, international distributors and mass merchandisers. No assurances can be given that demand for our current products or the introduction of new products will allow us to achieve historical levels of sales in the future. Our net sales are typically driven by product lifecycles. Several factors affect a product's life, including but not limited to, customer acceptance, competition and technology. As a result, each product family's life cycles generally range from one to three years.

Our business, financial condition, cash flows and results of operations are subject to seasonality resulting from factors such as weather and spending patterns. Due to the seasonality of our business, one quarter's financial results are not indicative of the full fiscal year's expected financial results. A majority of our revenue is earned in the first and second quarters of the year and revenues generally decline in the third and fourth quarters.

Costs of our clubs consist primarily of component parts, including the head, shaft and grip. To a lesser extent, our cost of goods sold includes labor, occupancy and shipping costs in connection with the inspection, testing, assembly and distribution of our products and certain promotional and advertising costs given in the form of additional merchandise as consideration to customers.

Key Performance Indicators

Our management team has defined and tracks performance against several key sales, operational and balance sheet performance indicators. Key sales performance indicators include, but are not limited to, the following:

—Daily sales by product group
—Daily sales by geography
—Sales by customer channel
—Gross margin performance
—Market share by product at retail
—Inventory share by product at retail
Tracking these sales performance indicators on a regular basis allows us to understand whether we are on target to achieve our internal sales plans.

Key operational performance indicators include, but are not limited to, the following:

—Product returns (dollars and percentage of sales)
—Product credits (dollars and percentage of sales)
—Units shipped per man-hour worked
—Orders shipped on time
—Expenses by department
—Inbound and outbound freight cost by mode (dollars and dollars per unit)
—Inbound freight utilization by mode (ocean vs air)
Tracking these operational performance indicators on a regular basis allows us to understand whether we will achieve our expense targets and efficiently satisfy customer demand.

Key balance sheet performance indicators include, but are not limited to, the following:

—Days of sales outstanding
—Days of inventory (at cost)
—Days of payables outstanding
Tracking these balance sheet performance indicators on a regular basis allows us to understand our working capital performance and forecast cash flow and liquidity.

Year Ended December 31, 2007 Compared to Year Ended December 31, 2006

Total net sales increased to $94.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2007 from $76.0 million for the comparable period of 2006 primarily resulting from the introduction of our new product lines, including the Idea a3 and a3 OS Irons and Iwoods and Tech OS Irons and Iwoods. Several factors affect a product's life, including but not limited to, customer acceptance, competition and technology. As a result, each product family's life cycle generally ranges from one to three years. Due to the seasonality of our business, one quarter's financial results are not indicative of the full fiscal year's expected financial results.

Net sales of irons increased to $63.3 million, or 66.9% of total net sales for the year ended December 31, 2007 from $51.6 million, or 67.9% of total net sales, for the comparable period of 2006. The increase was primarily generated from the net sales of recently launched Idea a3 and a3 OS irons coupled with the continued sales of the Idea a2 and a2 OS irons and integrated iron sets while the prior period net sales primarily resulted from the Idea a2 and a2 OS irons and integrated iron sets.

Net sales of drivers increased to $10.5 million, or 11.1% of total net sales, for the year ended December 31, 2007 from $7.3 million, or 9.6% of total net sales, for the comparable period of 2006. A large portion of the driver net sales for the year ended December 31, 2007 was generated by the Insight driver, which was introduced in the first quarter of 2007, while prior period net sales were driven by the Redline RPM product line.

Net sales of fairway woods increased to $18.4 million, or 19.5% of total net sales, for the year ended December 31, 2007, from $14.8 million, or 19.5% of total net sales, for the comparable period of 2006. Net sales for the year ended December 31, 2007 were generated from Insight fairway woods and Idea a3, Idea a2 and a2 OS, Idea Pro and Tech OS I-woods. Net sales for the same period of 2006 were generated from RPM LP fairway woods, Idea a2 and a2 OS I-woods and Original Tight Lies fairway woods.
 
24


We were dependent on four customers, which collectively comprised approximately 25.5% of net sales for the year ended December 31, 2007. Of these, one customer individually represented greater than 5% but less than 10% of net sales and one customer represented greater than 10% but less than 15% of net sales. No customer represented greater than 15% of net sales. Should these customers or our other customers fail to meet their obligations to us, our results of operations and cash flows would be adversely impacted.

Net sales of our products outside the U.S. increased to $16.0 million, or 16.9% of total net sales, from $13.0 million, or 17.1% of total net sales, for the year ended December 31, 2007 and 2006, respectively. Net sales resulting from countries outside the U.S. and Canada decreased to 6.0% of total net sales for the year ended December 31, 2007 from 6.7% for the comparable period of 2006.

Cost of goods sold increased to $54.6 million, or 57.7% of total net sales, for the year ended December 31, 2007 from $42.3 million, or 55.6% of total net sales, for the comparable period of 2006. The increase as a percentage of total net sales is primarily due to changes in the product mix, increases in some component pricing, and increasing inbound freight costs related to fuel price increases.

Selling and marketing expenses increased to $23.8 million for the year ended December 31, 2007 from $19.8 million for the comparable period in 2006. The increase is primarily the result of additional commission expense of $1.8 million as a result of the increased net sales during the period and an increase in marketing and tour player expenses of $1.2 million and an increase in other compensation expenses of $0.6 million.

General and administrative expenses increased to $8.4 million for the year ended December 31, 2007 from $7.9 million for the comparable period in 2006 primarily related to compensation expenses.

Research and development expenses, primarily consisting of costs associated with development of new products, increased to $3.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2007 from $2.6 million for the comparable period in 2006 primarily related to compensation expenses resulting from increased staffing efforts.

Other income increased to $0.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2007 from $0.0 million for the comparable period in 2006 as a result of a breakup fee awarded to our company resulting from our participation in the bidding process for a potential acquisition of a competitive golf club manufacturer.

Income tax benefit decreased to $4.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2007 from an income tax benefit of $5.3 million for the comparable period in 2006. The income tax benefit in each year is attributable to our management's assessment of the realizability of our existing deferred tax asset and the recording of a deferred tax benefit of $4.8 million and $5.4 million during 2007 and 2006, respectively. This amount represents what we believe to be an estimate of future usage of our carry back. The remaining asset has a valuation allowance applied to it.

Our inventory balances were approximately $28.7 million and $24.7 million at December 31, 2007 and December 31, 2006, respectively. The increase in inventory levels is primarily a result of the increased purchasing related to the recently launched Idea a3 and a3 OS Irons, which were launched in the second quarter of 2007 and third quarter of 2007, respectively.

Our net accounts receivable balances were approximately $18.0 million and $13.6 million at December 31, 2007 and December 31, 2006, respectively. The increase is primarily due to increasing annual revenue and the strengthening of our existing product lines.

Our accounts payable balances were approximately $9.2 million and $6.3 million at December 31, 2007 and December 31, 2006, respectively. The increase in accounts payable is primarily associated with increases in inventory purchases associated with the purchasing cycle for recently launched products.

Our accrued liabilities balances were approximately $8.7 million and $7.5 million at December 31, 2007 and December 31, 2006, respectively. The increase in accrued liabilities is primarily associated with increases in our inventory in transit and deferred revenue program.
 
25


Year Ended December 31, 2006 Compared to Year Ended December 31, 2005

Total net sales increased to $76.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2006 from $56.4 million for the comparable period of 2005 primarily resulting from the introductions of our new product lines, including the Idea A2 and A2 OS Irons. Overall, product family life cycles generally range from one to three years, and each product family varies in its life cycle as there are multiple factors influencing the life, such as, but not limited to, customer acceptance, competition and technology.

Net sales of irons increased to $51.6 million, or 67.9% of total net sales, from $23.9 million, or 42.4% of total net sales, for the years ended December 31, 2006 and 2005, respectively. The increase was primarily generated from the net sales of Idea A2 and A2 OS irons while the prior period net sales primarily resulted from the Original Idea irons and integrated iron sets.

Net sales of drivers decreased to $7.3 million, or 9.6% of total net sales, for the year ended December 31, 2006 from $15.7 million, or 27.8% of total net sales, for the comparable period of 2005. A large portion of the driver net sales for the year ended December 31, 2006 was generated by the RPM Ti and RPM Dual product lines, which were introduced in the first quarter of 2006 and second quarter of 2005, respectively. The overall decrease in driver net revenue results from lower sales of RPM and Ovation driver product families as they progress further in their life cycle.

Net sales of fairway woods increased to $14.8 million, or 19.5% of total net sales, from $14.5 million, or 25.8% of total net sales, for the years ended December 31, 2006 and 2005, respectively. This period's net sales were generated from RPM Low Profile fairway woods and Idea A2 and A2 OS and Original Idea I-woods. The prior period's net sales were generated from RPM Ti and stainless steel fairway woods, Ovation fairway woods, Idea I-woods and Original Tight Lies fairway woods.

We are currently dependent on four customers, which collectively comprised approximately 25.2% of net sales for the year ended December 31, 2006. Of these, three customers individually represented greater than 5% but less than 10% of net sales and no customers represented greater than 10% of net sales. Should these customers or our other customers fail to meet their obligations to us, our results of operations and cash flows would be adversely impacted.

Net sales of our products outside the U.S. increased to $13.0 million, or 17.1% of total net sales, from $7.9 million, or 14.1% of total net sales, for the years ended December 31, 2006 and 2005, respectively. Net sales resulting from countries outside the U.S. excluding Canada increased to 6.7% of total net sales for the year ended December 31, 2006 compared to 3.6% of total net sales for the year ended December 31, 2005.

Cost of goods sold increased to $42.3 million, or 55.6% of total net sales, for the year ended December 31, 2006 from $30.3 million, or 53.7% of total net sales, for the comparable period of 2005. The increase as a percentage of total net sales is primarily due to changes in the product mix, coupled with decreases in fairway wood and driver net pricing and increases in some component pricing, increasing inbound freight costs related to fuel price increases and other inventory related costs.

Selling and marketing expenses increased to $19.8 million for the year ended December 31, 2006 from $16.6 million for the comparable period in 2005. The increase is primarily the result of additional commission expense of $1.4 million as a result of the increased net sales during the period. In addition, advertising and promotional expense increased $0.6 million as a result of our support of the newly launched Idea A2 and A2 OS irons and RPM Low Profile fairway woods, an increase in tour player expenses of $0.4 million and an increase of $0.3 million in compensation expenses.

General and administrative expenses increased to $7.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2006 from $7.1 million for the comparable period in 2005. The increase is a result of $0.3 million related to bad debt expense resulting from our continued efforts to maintain adequate reserves for Accounts Receivable and an increase in legal expenses of $0.3 million.

Research and development expenses, primarily consisting of costs associated with development of new products, increased to $2.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2006 from $2.3 million for the comparable period in 2005.
 
26


Settlement expense was zero for the year ended December 31, 2006 compared to a reversal of expense of $1.8 million for the year ended December 31, 2005. During 2005, we reversed settlement expense of $1.8 million, which is attributable to the reversal of the accrued expenses for the settlement agreement that was reached with Mr. Nick Faldo in regards to the dispute regarding provisions of his prior professional services agreement with Adams Golf. Because Mr. Faldo did not meet the conditions precedent to pay in his contract, we are no longer due to make any future payments.

Other income decreased to zero for the year ended December 31, 2006 from $1.0 million for the comparable period in 2005 which is attributable to our one time receipt of a $965 thousand insurance claim paid by our insurance carrier in connection with an embezzlement which occurred during the period from 2001 through 2004. This event was disclosed in the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2004.

Income tax benefit increased to $5.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2006 from an income tax expense of $0.1 million for the comparable period in 2005. This is attributable to our management assessment of our existing deferred tax asset and the recording of a deferred tax benefit of $5.4 million. This amount represents what we believe to be an estimate of future usage of our carry back. The remaining asset has an existing valuation allowance applied to it.

Our inventory balances were approximately $24.7 million and $16.2 million at December 31, 2006 and December 31, 2005, respectively. The increase in inventory levels is primarily a result of increased purchasing related to the recently launched A2 and A2 OS iron sets launched in the third quarter of 2005 and Idea Pro Irons and Tech OS Irons launched in the third quarter of 2006.

Our net accounts receivable balances were approximately $13.6 million and $14.2 million at December 31, 2006 and December 31, 2005, respectively. The decrease is primarily due to the strengthening of our current product lines and strengthening of the overall economy.

Our accounts payable balances were approximately $6.3 million and $4.7 million at December 31, 2006 and December 31, 2005, respectively. The increase in accounts payable is primarily associated with increases in inventory purchases associated with the recent product launch of the Idea A2 and A2 OS irons, Idea Pro and Tech OS irons.

Our accrued liabilities balances were approximately $7.5 million and $7.3 million at December 31, 2006 and December 31, 2005, respectively. The increase in accrued liabilities is primarily associated with increases in accruals related to compensation, sales returns and warranty, offset by decreases in accrued intransit inventory and our deferred revenue program.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Our principal sources of liquidity are cash reserves, cash flows provided by operations and our credit facilities in effect from time to time. Cash inflows from operations are generally driven by collections of accounts receivables from customers, which generally increase in our second quarter and continue into the third quarter and then begin to decrease during the fourth quarter. As necessary we could use our credit facility to supplement our cash inflows from operations as well as other investing activities such as potential future acquisitions. Cash outflows are primarily tied to procurement of inventory which typically begins to build during the fourth quarter and continues heavily into the first and second quarters in order to meet demands during the height of the golf season.

Cash and cash equivalents increased to $11.3 million at December 31, 2007 compared to $9.5 million at December 31, 2006. During the year, accounts receivable increased $4.5, inventory increased $4.1 million, and other non-current assets increased $4.8 million related to the value of our deferred tax asset. These increases were partially offset with an increase in accrued expenses and accounts payable of $4.2 million.

In November 2007, we signed a revolving credit agreement with Wachovia Bank, National Association to provide up to $15.0 million in short term debt with the option to go up to $30 million. The agreement is collateralized by all of our assets and requires us, among other things, to maintain certain financial performance levels relative to the fixed charge coverage ratio, but only when we have an outstanding balance on the facility. Interest on outstanding balances accrues at a rate of Libor plus 1.75% and is payable monthly. As of March 7, 2008, we had no outstanding borrowings on our credit facility.

Working capital increased at December 31, 2007 to $42.3 million compared to $36.0 million at December 31, 2006. Approximately 30% of our current assets were comprised of accounts receivable at December 31, 2007. Due to industry sensitivity to consumer buying trends and available disposable income, we have in the past extended payment terms for specific purchase transactions. Issuance of these terms (i.e. greater than 30 days or specific dating) is dependent on our relationship with the customer and the customer's payment history. Payment terms are extended to selected customers typically during off-peak times in the year in order to promote our brand name and to assure adequate product availability and to coincide with planned promotions or advertising campaigns. Although a significant amount of our sales are not affected by these terms, the extended terms do have a negative impact on our financial position and liquidity. We expect to continue to selectively offer extended payment terms in the future, depending upon known industry trends and our financial condition. We generate cash flow from operations primarily by collecting outstanding trade receivables. Because we have limited cash reserves, if collections of a significant portion of trade receivables are unexpectedly delayed, we would have a limited amount of funds available to further expand production until such time as we could collect a significant portion of the trade receivables. If our cash needs in the near term exceed the available cash and cash equivalents on hand and the available borrowing under our credit facility, we would be required to obtain additional financing or limit expenditures to the extent of available cash on hand, all of which could adversely effect our current growth plans and result in a material adverse effect on our results of operations, financial condition and/or liquidity.

Our anticipated sources of liquidity over the next twelve months are expected to be cash reserves, projected cash flows from operations, and available borrowings under our credit facility. We anticipate that operating cash flows and current cash reserves will also fund capital expenditure programs. These capital expenditure programs can be suspended or delayed at any time with minimal disruption to our operations if cash is needed in other areas of our operations. In addition, cash flows from operations and cash reserves will be used to support ongoing purchases of component parts for our current and future product lines. The expected operating cash flow, current cash reserves and borrowings available under our credit facility are expected to allow us to meet working capital requirements during periods of low cash flows resulting from the seasonality of the industry.

If adequate funds are not available or not available on acceptable terms, we may be unable to continue operations; develop, enhance and market products; retain qualified personnel; take advantage of future opportunities; or respond to competitive pressures, any of which could have a material adverse effect on our business, operating results, financial condition and/or liquidity.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

Our discussion and analysis of our results of operations, financial condition and liquidity are based upon our consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. The preparation of these financial statements requires us to make estimates and judgments 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 period. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results may materially differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions. On an on-going basis, we review our estimates to ensure that the estimates appropriately reflect changes in our business.

  Inventories

Inventories are valued at the lower of cost or market and primarily consist of finished golf clubs and component parts. Cost is determined using the first-in, first-out method. The inventory balance, which includes material, labor and assembly overhead costs, is recorded net of an estimated allowance for obsolete inventory. The estimated allowance for obsolete inventory is based upon management's understanding of market conditions and forecasts of future product demand. Accounting for inventories could result in material adjustments if market conditions and future demand estimates are significantly different than original assumptions, causing the reserve for obsolescence to be materially adversely affected.

  Revenue Recognition

We recognize revenue when the product is shipped. At that time, the title and risk of loss transfer to the customer and collectability is reasonably assured. Collectability is evaluated on an individual customer basis taking into consideration historical payment trends, current financial position, results of independent credit evaluations and payment terms. Additionally, an estimate of product returns and warranty costs are recorded when revenue is recognized. Estimates are based on historical trends taking into consideration current market conditions, customer demands and product sell through. We also record estimated reductions in revenue for sales programs such as co-op advertising and spiff incentives. Estimates in the sales program accruals are based on program participation and forecast of future product demand.  If actual sales returns and sales programs significantly exceed the recorded estimated allowances, our sales would be adversely affected. We recognize deferred revenue as a result of sales that have extended terms and a right of return of the product under a specified program. Once the product is paid for and all revenue recognition criteria have been met, we record revenue.

  Allowance for Doubtful Accounts

We maintain an allowance for doubtful accounts for estimated losses resulting from the inability of our customers to make required payments. An estimate of uncollectable amounts is made by management using an evaluation methodology involving both overall and specific identification. We evaluate each individual customer and measure various key aspects of the customer such as, but not limited to, their overall credit risk (via Dun and Bradstreet reports), payment history, track record for meeting payment plans, industry communications, the portion of the customer's balance that is past due and other various items. From an overall perspective, we also look at the aging of the receivables in total and aging relative to prior periods to determine the appropriate reserve requirements. Fluctuations in the reserve requirements will occur from period to period as the change in customer mix or strength of the customers could affect the reserve disproportionately compared to the total change in the accounts receivable balance. Based on management's assessment, we provide for estimated uncollectable amounts through a charge to earnings and a credit to the valuation allowance. Balances that remain outstanding after we have used reasonable collection efforts are written off through a charge to the valuation allowance and a credit to accounts receivable. We generally do not require collateral. Accounting for an allowance for doubtful accounts could be significantly affected as a result of a deviation in our assessment of any one or more customers' financial strength. While only one customer represents greater than 5% but less than 10% of net sales and one customer represents greater than 10% but less than 15% of net sales for the year ended December 31, 2007, if a combination of customers were to become financially impaired, our financial results could be severely affected.
 
29


  Product Warranty

Our golf equipment is sold under warranty against defects in material and workmanship for a period of one year. An allowance for estimated future warranty costs is recorded in the period products are sold. In estimating our future warranty obligations, we consider various relevant factors, including our stated warranty policies, the historical frequency of claims, and the cost to replace or repair the product. Accounting for product warranty reserve could be adversely affected if one or more of our products were to fail (i.e broken shaft, broken head, etc) to a significant degree above and beyond our historical product failure rates, which determine the product warranty accruals.

  Income Taxes

We account for income taxes in accordance with FAS No. 109, "Accounting for Income Taxes" ("FAS 109") as clarified by FASB Interpretation No. 48, "Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes ("FIN 48"). Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to the differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases and operating loss and tax credit carryforwards. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date. In assessing the realizability of deferred income tax assets, we consider whether it is "more likely than not," according to the criteria of FAS 109, that some portion or all of the deferred income tax assets will be realized. The ultimate realization of deferred income tax assets is dependent upon the generation of future taxable income during the periods in which those temporary differences become deductible. FIN 48 requires that we recognize the financial statement benefit of a tax position only after determining that the relevant tax authority would more likely than not sustain the position following an audit. For tax positions meeting the more likely than not threshold, the amount recognized in the financial statements is the largest benefit that has a greater than 50% likelihood of being realized upon ultimate settlement with the relevant tax authority. Due to our historical operating results, management is unable to conclude on a more likely than not basis that all deferred income tax assets generated from net operating losses through December 31, 2002 and other deferred tax assets will be realized. However, due to our recent earnings history, we have concluded that it is more likely than not that a portion of the deferred tax asset will be realized. We have recognized a valuation allowance equal to a portion of the deferred income tax asset for which realization is uncertain.

  Impairment of Long-Lived Assets

We reviewed long-lived assets and certain identifiable intangibles according to the guidance in SFAS ("Statement of Financial Accounting Standards") 144 for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Recoverability of assets to be held and used is measured by a comparison of the carrying amount of an asset to future net cash flows to be generated by the asset. If such assets are considered to be impaired, the impairment to be recognized is measured by the amount by which the carrying amount of the assets exceeds the fair value of the assets. Assets to be disposed of are reported at the lower of the carrying amount or fair value less costs to sell. During the year ended December 31, 2007 and 2006, there were no impairments of long-lived assets.

Item 7A. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

Interest Rates

In the normal course of doing business, we are exposed to market risk through changes in interest rates with respect to our cash equivalents. Cash and cash equivalents at December 31, 2007, were $11,265,000. The average interest rate earned for the year end December 31, 2007, was 4.15%.

Additionally, we are exposed to interest rate risk from our Line of Credit (see Item 7 - Management Discussion and Analysis, Liquidity and Capital Resources). Outstanding borrowings accrue interest, at the Libor rate plus 1.75%. Our company would then be exposed to changes in the Libor rate. As of March 7, 2008, we had no outstanding borrowings on our credit facility.

Foreign Currency Fluctuations 

In the normal course of business, we are exposed to foreign currency exchange rate risks that could impact our results of operations. We are exposed to foreign currency exchange rate risk inherent primarily in our sales commitments, anticipated sales and assets and liabilities denominated in currencies other than the U.S. dollar. We transact business in several currencies worldwide, however all foreign transactions are transacted in U.S. dollar except for Canadian activities. The functional currency of our Canadian operations is Canadian dollars. The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been expressed in United States dollars, our reporting currency. Reporting assets and liabilities of out foreign operations have been translated at the rate of exchange at the end of each period. Revenues and expenses have been translated at the monthly average rate of exchange in effect during the respective period. Gains and losses resulting from translation are accumulated in other comprehensive income (loss) in stockholders' equity. Gains or losses resulting from transactions that are made in a currency different from the functional currency are recognized in comprehensive income as they occur. Inventory purchases are invoiced by suppliers in U.S. dollars.

Item 8. Financial Statements and Supplementary Data

The financial statements are set forth herein under Item 15 commencing on page F-1. Schedule II to the consolidated financial statements is set forth herein under Item 15 on page S-1. In addition, supplementary financial information is required pursuant to the provisions of Regulation S-K, Item 302, and is set forth herein under Item 15, note 15 of the notes to Consolidated Financial Statements.

Item 9A(T). Controls and Procedures

Introduction

"Disclosure Controls and Procedures" are defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a -15(e) and 15d -15 (e) as the controls and procedures of an issuer that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the issuer in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time period specified by the SEC's rules and forms. Disclosure Controls and Procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act are accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive and principal financial officers, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding disclosure.
 
31


"Internal Control Over Financial Reporting" is defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a -15(f) and 15d -15(f) as a process designed by, or under the supervision of, an issuer's principal executive and principal financial officers, or persons performing similar functions, and effected by an issuer's board of directors, management, and other personnel, to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. It includes those policies and procedures that (1) pertain to the maintenance of records that in reasonable detail accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and disposition of an issuer; (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the issuer are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the issuer; and (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the issuer's assets that could have a material adverse effect on the financial statements.

We have endeavored to design our Disclosure Controls and Procedures and Internal Controls Over Financial Reporting to provide reasonable assurances that our objectives will be met. All control systems are subject to inherent limitations, such as resource constraints, the possibility of human error, lack of knowledge or awareness, and the possibility of intentional circumvention of these controls. Furthermore, the design of any control system is based, in part, upon assumptions about the likelihood of future events, which assumptions may ultimately prove to be incorrect. As a result, no assurances can be made that our control system will detect every error or instance of fraudulent conduct, including an error or instance of fraudulent conduct, which could have a material adverse impact on our operations or results.

Evaluation of Internal Controls over Financial Reporting and Disclosure Controls and Procedure

Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting for the company. Under the supervision of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, our management conducted an assessment of our internal controls over financial reporting as of December 31, 2007, based on the framework and criteria established in Internal Control – Integrated Framework, issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission ("COSO").

Based on the results of the assessment, management concluded that as of December 31, 2007, our internal controls over financial reporting are effective. There were no material changes to our Internal Controls Over Financial Reporting during the year ended December 31, 2007, that have materially affected or are reasonably likely to materially affect our Internal Controls Over Financial Reporting.

Our management, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, have evaluated the effectiveness of our Disclosure Controls and Procedures as of the end of the period covered by this report and have concluded that our Disclosure Controls and Procedures as of the end of the period covered by this report were designed to ensure that material information relating to us is made known to the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer by others within our Company, and were effective.

In addition, it is our policy to not participate in off-balance sheet transactions, including but not limited to special purpose entities.

This annual report does not include an attestation report of the company's registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting. Management's report was not subject to attestation by the company's registered public accounting firm pursuant to temporary rules of the Security and Exchange Commission that permit the company to provide only management's report in this annual report.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

To the Board of Directors and Stockholders of Adams Golf, Inc.

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Adams Golf, Inc. and subsidiaries (the “Company”) as of December 31, 2007 and 2006 and the related consolidated statements of operations, stockholders' equity and cash flows for each of the years in the three-year period ended December 31, 2007. In connection with our audits of the consolidated financial statements, we have also audited the financial statement schedule appearing under Item 15 for each of the years in the three-year period ended December 31, 2007. The consolidated financial statements and financial statement schedule are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements and financial statement schedule based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with 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 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 Adams Golf, Inc. and subsidiaries as of December 31, 2007 and 2006 and the consolidated results of their operations and their cash flows for each of the years in the three-year period ended December 31, 2007 in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Also, in our opinion, the related financial statement schedule for each of the years in the three-year period ended December 31, 2007, when considered in relation to the basic consolidated financial statements taken as a whole, presents fairly, in all material respects, the information set forth therein.

As discussed in Note 1 to the consolidated financial statements, effective January 1, 2006 the Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123R, "Share-Based Payment".

ADAMS GOLF, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

December 31, 2007 and 2006

(Tables in thousands, except share and per share amounts)

(1)   Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

(a)   General

We design, assemble, market and distribute premium quality, technologically innovative golf clubs for all skill levels, including Idea a3 and a3 OS irons, Idea a2 and a2 OS irons, Idea Tech OS irons, Idea Pro Irons and Idea a3 and a3 OS, Idea a2 and a2 OS, Idea Tech OS and Idea Pro I-woods, Insight XTD A3 & A3 OS drivers and fairway woods, RPM drivers and fairway woods, the Ovation family of drivers, fairway woods and irons, the Tight Lies family of fairway woods, the Redline family of fairway woods and drivers, Tight Lies GT500 and GT3 irons and i-woods, the Tom Watson signature and Puglielli series of wedges, and certain accessories. In addition, under Women's Golf Unlimited we distribute the Lady Fairway and Square 2 brands.

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its subsidiaries, all of which are wholly-owned. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. On February 19, 2008 we completed a one-for-four reverse stock split. All share values have been restated as a result of the reverse stock split.

(b)   Inventories

Inventories are valued at the lower of cost or market and primarily consist of finished golf clubs and component parts. Cost is determined using the first-in, first-out method. The inventory balance, which includes material, labor and assembly and other overhead costs, is recorded net of an estimated allowance for obsolete inventory. The estimated allowance for obsolete inventory is based upon management's understanding of market conditions and forecasts of future product demand. Accounting for inventories could result in material adjustments if market conditions and future demand estimates are significantly different than original assumptions, causing the reserve for obsolescence to be materially adversely affected.

(c)   Allowance for Doubtful Accounts

We maintain an allowance for doubtful accounts for estimated losses resulting from the inability of our customers to make required payments. An estimate of uncollectable amounts is made by management using an evaluation methodology involving both overall and specific identification. We evaluate each individual customer and measure various key aspects of the customer such as, but not limited to, their overall credit risk (via Dun and Bradstreet reports), payment history, track record for meeting payment plans, industry communications, the portion of the customer's balance that is past due and other various items. From an overall perspective, we also look at the aging of the receivables in total and aging relative to prior periods to determine the appropriate reserve requirements. Fluctuations in the reserve requirements will occur from period to period as the change in customer mix or strength of the customers could affect the reserve disproportionately compared to the total change in the accounts receivable balance. Based on management's assessment, we provide for estimated uncollectable amounts through a charge to earnings and a credit to the valuation allowance. Balances that remain outstanding after we have used reasonable collection efforts are written off through a charge to the valuation allowance and a credit to accounts receivable. We generally do not require collateral. Accounting for an allowance for doubtful accounts could be significantly affected as a result of a deviation in our assessment of any one or more customers' financial strength. While only one customer represents greater than 5% but less than 10% of net sales and one customer represents greater than 10% but less than 15% of the net sales for the year ended December 31, 2007, if a combination of customers were to become financially impaired, our operations and financial condition could be severely affected.

ADAMS GOLF, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

December 31, 2007 and 2006

(Tables in thousands, except share and per share amounts)

(1)   Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)

(d)   Property and Equipment

Property and equipment are stated at cost. Depreciation and amortization are calculated using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the respective assets, which range from three to seven years. Maintenance and repairs are expensed as incurred. Significant replacements and betterments are capitalized.

(e)   Revenue Recognition

We recognize revenue when the product is shipped. At that time, the title and risk of loss transfer to the customer and collectability is reasonably assured. Collectability is evaluated on an individual customer basis taking into consideration historical payment trends, current financial position, results of independent credit evaluations and payment terms. Additionally, an estimate of product returns and warranty costs are recorded when revenue is recognized. Estimates are based on historical trends taking into consideration current market conditions, customer demands and product sell through. We also record estimated reductions in revenue for sales programs such as co-op advertising and spiff incentives. Estimates in the sales program accruals are based on program participation and forecast of future product demand.  If actual sales returns and sales programs significantly exceed the recorded estimated allowances, our sales would be adversely affected. We recognize deferred revenue as a result of sales that have extended terms and a right of return of the product under a specified program. Once the product is paid for and all revenue recognition criteria are met, we record revenue.

(f)   New Accounting Pronouncements

In 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 157, Fair Value Measurements, which provides defines fair value and provides framework for measuring the fair value and expands disclosure about those measurements. We adopted the provisions of this standard in the fourth quarter of 2007; the adoption of this standard had no impact on the consolidated financial statements.

In February 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 159, The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities-Including an amendment of FASB Statement No. 115, which permits entities to choose to measure many financial instruments and certain other items at fair value. We adopted the provisions of this standard in the fourth quarter of 2007; the adoption of this standard had no impact on the consolidated financial statements.

In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 141(R), Business Combinations - an amendment of FASB Statement No. 141, which defines the acquirer in a business combination and discusses reporting of the acquisition method of accounting for transactions. We are currently reviewing the provisions of this standard to determine the impact to our financial statements and will adopt in the first quarter of 2008.

In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 160, Accounting for Noncontrolling Interests in Consolidated Financial Statements-an amendment of ARB No. 51, which establishes standards for reporting and comparability of consolidated financial statements, specifically as it relates to noncontrolling interests. We are currently reviewing the provisions of this standard to determine the impact to our financial statements and will adopt in the first quarter of 2009.

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)

(g)   Research and Development

Research and development costs consist of all costs incurred in planning, designing and testing of golf equipment, including salary costs related to research and development. These costs are expensed as incurred. Our research and development expenses were approximately $3,698,000, $2,607,000 and $2,285,000 for the years ended December 31, 2007, 2006 and 2005, respectively.
 
(h)   Advertising Costs

Advertising costs, included in selling and marketing expenses on the accompanying consolidated statements of operations, other than direct commercial costs, are expensed as incurred and totaled approximately $5,732,000, $5,631,000 and $4,980,000 for the years ended December 31, 2007, 2006 and 2005, respectively.

(i)   Product Warranty

Our golf equipment is sold under warranty against defects in material and workmanship for a period of one year. An allowance for estimated future warranty costs is recorded in the period products are sold. In estimating our future warranty obligations, we consider various relevant factors, including our stated warranty policies, the historical frequency of claims, and the cost to replace or repair the product. Accounting for product warranty reserve could be adversely affected if one or more of our products were to fail (i.e broken shaft, broken head, etc) to a significant degree above and beyond our historical product failure rates, which determine the product warranty accruals.

(1)   Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)

(j)    Income Taxes

We account for income taxes in accordance with FAS No. 109, "Accounting for Income Taxes" ("FAS 109") as clarified by FASB Interpretation No. 48, "accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes ("FIN 48"). Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to the differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases and operating loss and tax credit carryforwards. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date. In assessing the realizability of deferred income tax assets, we consider whether it is "more likely than not", according to the criteria of FAS 109, that some portion or all of the deferred income tax assets will be realized. The ultimate realization of deferred income tax assets is dependent upon the generation of future taxable income during the periods in which those temporary differences become deductible. FIN 48 requires that we recognize the financial statement benefit of a tax position only after determining that the relevant tax authority would more likely than not sustain the position following an audit. For tax positions meeting the more likely than not threshold, the amount recognized in the financial statements is the largest benefit that has a greater than 50% likelihood of being realized upon ultimate settlement with the relevant tax authority. Due to our historical operating results, management is unable to conclude on a more likely than not basis that all deferred income tax assets generated from net operating losses through December 31, 2002 and other deferred tax assets will be realized. However, due to our recent earnings history, we have concluded that it is more likely than not that a portion of the deferred tax asset will be realized. We have recognized a valuation allowance equal to a portion of the deferred income tax asset for which realization is uncertain. 

(k)   Income Per Share

The weighted average common shares used for determining basic and diluted income per common share were 6,094,385 and 7,134,363, respectively, for the year ended December 31, 2007. The effect of all options to purchase shares of our common stock for the year ended December 31, 2007 resulted in additional dilutive shares of 1,039,978.

The weighted average common shares used for determining basic and diluted income per common share were 5,830,229 and 7,232,445, respectively, for the year ended December 31, 2006. The effect of all options to purchase shares of our common stock for the year ended December 31, 2006 resulted in additional dilutive shares of 1,402,216.

The weighted average common shares used for determining basic and diluted income per common share were 5,683,515 and 6,950,932, respectively, for the year ended December 31, 2005. The effect of all warrants and options to purchase shares of our common stock for the year ended December 31, 2005 resulted in additional dilutive shares of 1,267,417.

(l)   Financial Instruments

The carrying amounts of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable, and accrued expenses approximate fair value due to the short maturity of these instruments.

(1)   Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)

(m)  Impairment of Long-Lived Assets

We follow the guidance in SFAS ("Statement of Financial Accounting Standards") 144 in reviewing long-lived assets and certain identifiable intangibles for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Recoverability of assets to be held and used is measured by a comparison of the carrying amount of an asset to future net cash flows to be generated by the asset. If such assets are considered to be impaired, the impairment to be recognized is measured by the amount by which the carrying amount of the assets exceeds the fair value of the assets. Assets to be disposed of are reported at the lower of the carrying amount or fair value less costs to sell. During the years ended December 31, 2007, 2006 and 2005, there was no impairment of long-lived assets.

(n)   Comprehensive Income

Comprehensive income consists of net income and unrealized gains and losses, net of related tax effect, on foreign currency translation adjustments and marketable securities.
 
(o)   Cash and Cash Equivalents

We consider all short-term highly liquid instruments, with an original maturity of three months or less, to be cash equivalents.

(p)   Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles 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 revenue and expenses during the reporting periods. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

(q)  Segment Reporting

We are organized by functional responsibility and operate as a single segment and within that segment offer more than one class of product.

(r)  Stock-Based Compensation

In May 2002, we adopted the 2002 Equity Incentive Plan (the “Plan”) for employees, outside directors and consultants. The Plan allows for the granting of up to 625,000 shares of our common stock at the inception of the Plan, plus all shares remaining available for issuance under all predecessor plans on the effective date of this Plan, and additional shares as defined in the Plan. In addition, the Plan automatically increases 250,000 shares available for granting on January 1 of each subsequent year for years 2003 through 2008. At December 31, 2007 (restated as a result of the one-for-four reverse stock split on February 19, 2008), 1,100,274 outstanding options had been granted with exercise prices ranging from $0.04 to $4.80 per share at the date of grant. The requisite service periods for the options to vest vary from six months to four years and the options expire ten years from the date of grant. At December 31, 2007 (restated as a result of the one-for-four reverse stock split on February 19, 2008), 796,158 shares remain available for grant, including forfeitures.

(r)  Stock Compensation (continued)

In December 2004, the FASB issued SFAS No. 123 (revised 2004), Share-Based Payment (“SFAS 123R”), which established accounting standards for transactions where the entity exchanges equity instruments for goods and services. The revision of this statement focuses on the accounting for transactions where the entity obtains employee services in share-based payment transactions. This statement revision eliminates the alternative use of APB 25 intrinsic value method and requires that entities adopt the fair-value method for all share-based transactions. We adopted the provisions of this standard on a modified prospective basis on January 1, 2006. The following table illustrates the effect on net income and income per share as if we had applied the fair value recognition provisions of SFAS 123 and SFAS 148 to stock-based employee compensation for the year ended December 31, 2005 (in thousands, except for per share amounts):

Compensation expense associated with adopting SFAS 123R for the year ended December 31, 2007, had an expense effect on income from operations, income before taxes and net income associated with stock options and warrants of $1,046,000. The reported basic and diluted earnings per share were $1.54 and $1.32, respectively, for the year ended December 31, 2007. Had we not adopted SFAS 123R, the effect to net income under APB 25 would have been $ 1,023,000 for the year ended December 31, 2007. The basic and diluted earnings per share did not change for the year ended December 31, 2007 as a result of the adoption of SFAS 123R.

The effect of compensation expense associated with adopting SFAS 123R for the year ended December 31, 2006, had an expense effect on income from operations, income before taxes and net income associated with stock options and warrants of $1,118,000. The reported basic and diluted earnings per share were $1.54 and $1.24 for the year ended December 31, 2006. Had we not adopted SFAS 123R, the effect to net income under APB 25 would have been $ 1,080,000 for the year ended December 31, 2006. The basic and diluted earnings per share did not change for the year ended December 31, 2006 as a result of the adoption of SFAS 123R.

(r)   Stock Compensation (continued)

Under the provisions of the 2002 Equity Incentive Plan, we have the authority to repurchase the taxable portion of the employee's shares that become outstanding after the employee exercises their options. On May 15, 2007, we repurchased 42,992 shares of common stock at an average price per share of $8.00 for a total cost of approximately $344,000. On August 15, 2007, we repurchased 33,541 shares of common stock at an average price per share of $7.96 for a total cost of approximately $267,000. On November 15, 2007, we repurchased 15,433 shares of common stock at an average price per share of $7.60 for a total cost of approximately $117,000. The repurchased shares are held in treasury.
 
(s)  Foreign Currency Translation and Transactions

The functional currency of our Canadian operations is Canadian dollars. The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been expressed in United States dollars, our reporting currency. Reporting assets and liabilities of our foreign operations have been translated at the rate of exchange at the end of each period. Revenues and expenses have been translated at the monthly average rate of exchange in effect during the respective period. Gains and losses resulting from translation are accumulated in other comprehensive income (loss) in stockholders' equity. Gains or losses resulting from transactions that are made in a currency different from the functional currency are recognized in earnings as they occur. Inventory purchases are invoiced by suppliers in U.S. dollars.

(t)   Classification of Shipping and Handling Fees and Costs

Shipping and handling fees and costs are included in net sales and cost of goods sold, respectively.

(5)  Other current and non-current Assets (continued)

We recorded a deferred tax asset of $4.8 million during the year ended December 31, 2007 and $5.4 million for the same period during 2006. This amount represents what we believe to be an estimate of future usage of our carry back; the remaining asset has an existing valuation allowance applied to it. At December 31, 2007, we had net operating loss carryforwards for federal, foreign and state income tax purposes of approximately $37 million and tax credit carryforwards of $0.3 million, which are available to offset future taxable income through 2022. The short term portion of the deferred tax asset of $1.4 million is reported in other current assets; the long term portion of the deferred tax asset of $8.9 million is reported as a deferred tax asset non-current in the non-current asset section of the balance sheet.

Other assets, net, consist of the following at December 31, 2007 and 2006:

(7)   Restructuring

During 2002, we executed an operational restructuring plan, which resulted in the closure of the Adams Golf UK, Limited wholly owned subsidiary. The operational restructuring plan resulted in a restructuring charge of $850,000 for severance, a write off of goodwill and other related exit costs. Restructuring expense for 2003 and 2005 resulted in a benefit due to the release of liability from our previously recorded building lease and accounting and legal fees for the Adams Golf, UK subsidiary. We continue to sell our products in the UK through a third party distributor.

(8)
Professional Services Agreement and Settlement Expense

In May 1998, Adams Golf, Ltd. entered into an agreement with Nicholas A. Faldo. The agreement provided that Mr. Faldo provide a variety of services to Adams Golf including endorsement and use of certain of Adams Golf Ltd.'s products. On November 6, 2000, we announced that Mr. Faldo was in material breach of his contract for failure to use certain of our products. On August 25, 2001, an agreement was reached with Mr. Faldo in settlement of the dispute regarding provisions of his prior professional services agreement with Adams Golf. As a result, we established a liability representing the present value of the future obligation, which approximated $2,673,000, utilizing our incremental borrowing rate of 6.04%. In accordance with the terms of the settlement, Mr. Faldo waived all future rights to accrued and unpaid royalties of $1.1 million associated with his prior professional services agreement with us. Therefore, $1,579,000 of settlement expense was incurred during the year ended December 31, 2001. We owed two $100,000 payments, one due at December 31, 2003 and one due at December 31, 2004. However, according to the terms of Mr. Faldo's contract, he was required to play a specified number of PGA sanctioned events and keep his PGA credentials. Because Mr. Faldo has failed to meet the contract requirements, the payment was not made at December 31, 2003 or December 31, 2004. During September 2005, we determined that it was appropriate to reverse the settlement liability previously accrued. Accordingly, we reversed approximately $1,339,000 and $449,000 in accrued expenses and other non-current liabilities.

We are obligated under certain noncancellable operating leases for assembly, warehouse and office space. A summary of the minimum rental commitments under noncancellable leases is as follows:

(9)   Commitments and Contingencies (continued)

Beginning in June 1999, the first of seven class action lawsuits was filed against us, certain of our current and former officers and directors, and the three underwriters of our initial public offering ("IPO") in the United States District Court of the District of Delaware. The complaints alleged violations of Sections 11, 12(a)(2) and 15 of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, in connection with our IPO. In particular, the complaints alleged that our prospectus, which became effective July 9, 1998, was materially false and misleading. The operative complaint was filed on January 24, 2006, and it alleges that the prospectus failed to disclose that unauthorized distribution of our products (gray market sales) threatened our long-term profits and that we engaged in questionable sales practices (including double shipping and unlimited rights of return), which threatened post-IPO financial results. Discovery closed on August 11, 2006. On November 21, 2006, all summary-judgment briefing was completed. On December 13, 2006, we learned that the Delaware District Court judge whom the case was set before was elevated to the United States Court of Appeals for the Third Circuit. On December 15, 2006, we were notified that our case was assigned to the vacant judicial position and that all proceedings had been postponed until a new judge was confirmed, and there was no trial date set at this time. On February 7, 2008, we were notified that our case has been reassigned to Chief Judge Gregory M. Sleet. There has been no scheduling conference set yet, and there is no trial date set at this time. A mediation has been scheduled for April 8, 2008.

We maintain directors' and officers' ("D&O") and corporate liability insurance to cover certain risks associated with these securities claims filed against us or our directors and officers. During the period covering the class action lawsuit, we maintained insurance from multiple carriers, each insuring a different layer of exposure, up to a total of $50 million. In addition, we have met the financial deductible of our directors' and officers' insurance policy for the period covering the time the class action lawsuit was filed. On March 30, 2006, Zurich American Insurance Company, which provided insurance coverage totaling $5 million for the layer of exposure between $15 million and $20 million, notified us that it was denying coverage due to the fact that it was allegedly not timely notified of the class action lawsuit.  On October 11, 2007, we filed a suit against our former insurance broker, Thilman & Filipini, LLC ("T&F"), for various claims related to T&F's alleged failure to notify Zurich of the class action lawsuit. Depending on the outcome of this proceeding, based on the previously disclosed agreement with Chubb & Son ("Chubb"), a division of Federal Insurance Company ("Federal"),which is described below, we could be required to pay Zurich's $5 million limit of liability in cash before the layers of insurance coverage excess to the Zurich layer attach. We previously disclosed that Chubb had notified us that coverage under the Federal policy, which provided insurance coverage totaling $10 million for the layer of exposure between $20 million and $30 million, and the Executive Risk Indemnity Inc. ("ERII") policy, which provided insurance coverage totaling $10 million for the layer of exposure between $40 million and $50 million, would attach only if the underlying limits are exhausted by payment from the underlying insurance carriers. On June 18, 2007, Chubb notified us that Federal and ERII will not require that Zurich pay the full mount of its limit of liability before the Federal and ERII policies attach, and it confirmed that Chubb will accept payment in cash by our company of Zurich's limit of liability to satisfy this requirement, so long as such payment is for covered loss. On August 7, 2007, TIG Insurance Co ("TIG"), which provided insurance coverage totaling $7.5 million for the layer of exposure between $7.5 million and $15 million, informed us that it was reserving its rights to deny coverage, based on, among other things, certain exclusions in the policy and recent legal authority holding that damages and settlements arising out of Section 11 claims are uninsured loss. We disagree with TIG's interpretation of the policy language and legal authority, and negotiations on this issue continue. At this point in the legal proceedings, we cannot predict with any certainty the outcome of the matter, per the guidance in SFAS 5, and thus can not reasonably estimate future liability on the conclusion of the events, if any.

(9)  Commitments and Contingencies (continued)

The underwriters for the IPO are also defendants in the securities class action. The underwriting agreement that we entered into with the underwriters in connection with the IPO contains an indemnification clause, providing for indemnification against any loss, including defense costs, arising out of the IPO. After the first lawsuit was filed, the underwriters requested indemnification under the agreement. Our D&O insurance policy included an endorsement providing $1 million to cover indemnification of the underwriters. Our D&O insurer has notified the underwriters of the exhaustion of the $1 million sublimit. We believe that we have no current obligation to pay the underwriters' defense costs. We believe that the applicable case law provides that the earliest possible time that an obligation to indemnify might exist is after a court has decided conclusively that the underwriters are without fault under the federal securities laws. The litigation is not at that stage yet. As of March 7, 2008, the total amount of outstanding underwriter defense costs was just less than $1.4 million. At this time, the underwriters are not able to predict with certainty the amount of defense costs they expect to incur going forward, but it is likely they will incur additional costs before this matter is concluded. At this time, we cannot predict with any certainty the outcome of this indemnification issue, per the guidance in SFAS 5, and thus cannot reasonably estimate future liability on the conclusion of the events, if any.

From time to time, we are engaged in various other legal proceedings in the normal course of business. The ultimate liability, if any, for the aggregate amounts claimed cannot be determined at this time.

(10) Retirement Plan

In February 1998, we adopted the Adams Golf, Ltd. 401(k) Retirement Plan (the "Plan"), which covers substantially all employees. We match 50% of employee contributions up to a maximum of 6% of the employee's compensation. For the years ended December 31, 2007, 2006 and 2005, we contributed approximately $134,000, $149,000 and $135,000, respectively, to the Plan.

(11) Liquidity

In November 2007, we signed a revolving credit agreement with Wachovia Bank, National Association to provide up to $15.0 million in short term debt with the option to go up to $30 million. The agreement is collateralized by all of our assets and requires, among other things, us to maintain certain financial performance levels relative to the fixed charge coverage ratio, but only when we have an outstanding balance on the facility. Interest on outstanding balances accrues at a rate of Libor plus 1.75% payable monthly. As of December 31, 2007 and March 7, 2008, we have no outstanding borrowings on our credit facility.

Our anticipated sources of liquidity over the next twelve months are expected to be cash reserves, projected cash flows from operations, and available borrowings under our credit facility. We anticipate that operating cash flows and current cash reserves will also fund capital expenditure programs. These capital expenditure programs can be suspended or delayed at any time with minimal disruption to our operations if cash is needed in other areas of our operations. In addition, cash flows from operations and cash reserves will be used to support ongoing purchases of component parts for our current and future product lines. The expected operating cash flow, current cash reserves and borrowings available under our credit facility are expected to allow us to meet working capital requirements during periods of low cash flows resulting from the seasonality of the industry.

If adequate funds are not available or not available on acceptable terms, we may be unable to continue operations; develop, enhance and market products; retain qualified personnel; take advantage of future opportunities; or respond to competitive pressures, any of which could have a material adverse effect on our business, operating results, financial condition and/or liquidity.

In assessing the realizability of deferred tax assets, management considers whether it is more likely than not that some portion of all of the deferred tax asset will not be realized. The ultimate realization of deferred tax assets is dependent upon the generation of future taxable income during the periods in which those temporary differences become deductible.

(12)  Income Taxes (continued)

At December 31, 2007, we cannot determine based on a weighing of objective evidence that it is more likely than not that the remaining net deferred tax assets will be realized. As a result, as of December 31, 2007, we have established a valuation allowance for the deferred tax assets in excess of existing taxable temporary differences. We recorded a deferred tax asset of $10.2 million. This amount represents what we believe to be an estimate of future usage of our carry back. The remaining asset has an existing valuation allowance applied to it. The net change in the valuation allowance for the years ended December 31, 2007 and 2006 was $6,809,000 and $6,770,000, respectively.

At December 31, 2007, we have net operating loss carryforwards for federal, foreign and state income tax purposes of approximately $36,791,000 and tax credit carryforwards of $306,000 which are available to offset future taxable income through 2022. The availability of approximately $502,000 of the net operating loss carryforwards to reduce future taxable income is limited to approximately $71,000 per year for the remaining life of the net operating losses, as a result of a change in ownership.

(13)  Stockholders' Equity

(a)   Employee Stock Option Plans

In May 2002, we adopted the 2002 Equity Incentive Plan for employees, outside directors and consultants. The plan allows for the granting of up to 625,000 shares of our common stock at the inception of the plan, plus all shares remaining available for issuance under all predecessor plans on the effective date of this plan, and additional shares as defined in the plan. On May 1, 2002, the four predecessor plans described in previous annual reports were terminated and a total of 538,370 shares available for issuance under these predecessor plans were transferred to the Equity Incentive Plan. As shares forfeit or expire under the four predecessor plans, those shares become available under the 2002 Equity Incentive Plan. Since the initial transfer on May 1, 2002, an additional 201,510 shares were transferred to the Equity Incentive Plan. In addition, the plan automatically increases 250,000 shares available for granting on January 1 of each subsequent year for years 2003 through 2008. At December 31, 2007, 1,100,274 outstanding options had been granted with exercise prices ranging from $0.04 to $4.80 per share at the date of grant. The vesting periods vary from six months to four years and the options expire ten years from the date of grant. At December 31, 2007, 796,158 shares remain available for grant, including forfeitures.

(13)  Stockholders' Equity (continued)

The per share weighted-average fair value of stock options granted during 2006 and 2005 was $4.72 and $5.52, respectively, on the date of grant using the Black Scholes option pricing model with the following weighted-average assumptions: Risk free interest rate, 3.5%; expected life, 10 years; expected dividend yield, 0%; and daily annualized volatility, 107.4% and 111.4% in 2006 and 2005, respectively. We use historical data to estimate option exercise and employee termination factors within the valuation model.

Operating expenses included in the consolidated statements of operations for the years ended December 31, 2007, 2006 and 2005 include total compensation expense associated with stock options and warrants of $1,046,000, $1,118,000 and $1,496,000, respectively.

As of December 31, 2007, compensation costs related to non-vested awards totaled $0.5 million, which is expected to be recognized over a weighted average period of 0.8 years.

On February 19, 2008 we completed a one-for-four reverse stock split resulting in our total shares issued and outstanding and outstanding stock options decreasing with a one-to-four ratio. The above footnote represents values restated as a result of the reverse stock split.

(13)  Stockholders' Equity (continued)

(a)  Common Stock Repurchase Program

In October 1998, the Board of Directors approved a plan whereby we are authorized to repurchase from time to time on the open market up to 500,000 shares of its common stock. At December 31, 1998, we had repurchased 164,375 shares of common stock at an average price per share of $19.08 for a total cost of approximately $3,136,000. At August 15, 2006, we repurchased 34,346 shares of common stock at an average price per share of $5.40 for a total cost of approximately $186,000. At November 15, 2006, we repurchased 35,434 shares of common stock at an average price per share of $5.76 for a total cost of approximately $204,000. On May 15, 2007, we repurchased 42,992 shares of common stock at an average price per share of $8.00 for a total cost of approximately $344,000. On August 15, 2007, we repurchased 33,541 shares of common stock at an average price per share of $7.96 for a total cost of approximately $267,000. On November 15, 2007, we repurchased 15,433 shares of common stock at an average price per share of $7.60 for a total cost of approximately $117,000. The repurchased shares are held in treasury. No shares were repurchased during the years ended December 31, 2005 or 2004.

(b)  Deferred Compensation

Due to the passage of The American Jobs Creation Act and the subsequent IRS Section 409A rules, stock options that were issued at a strike price less than market value at the date of grant will now be considered deferred compensation by the Internal Revenue Service and the individual who was granted the options will incur adverse tax consequences, including but not limited to excise taxes, unless the individual deemed future exercise date of the unvested stock options at December 31, 2004 and made this election before December 31, 2005. As a result of the compliance with the American Job Creation Act, a summary of the elected future exercise dates is as follows:

(16)  Business and Credit Concentrations

We are currently dependent on four customers, which collectively comprised approximately 25.5% of net sales for the year ended December 31, 2007. Of these, one customer individually represented greater than 5% but less than 10% of net sales, while one customer individually represented greater than 10% but less than 15% of net sales for the year ended December 31, 2007. For the year ended December 31, 2006, four customers, which collectively comprised approximately 25.2% of net sales, of which three customers individually represented greater than 5% but less than 10% of net sales, while no customer individually represented greater than 10% of net sales for the year ended December 31, 2006. For the year ended December 31, 2005, five customers collectively comprised approximately 26.0% of net sales, of which no customer individually represented greater than 5% of net sales while one customer represented greater than 10% but less than 15% of net sales for the year ended December 31, 2005. The loss of an individual or a combination of these customers would have a material adverse effect on consolidated revenues, results of operations, financial condition and competitive market position.

A significant portion of our inventory purchases are from one supplier in China; we purchased approximately 46% and 62% of our total inventory purchased for the years ended December 31, 2007 and 2006, respectively, from this one Chinese supplier. This supplier and many other industry suppliers are located in China. We do not anticipate any changes in the relationships with its suppliers; however, if such change were to occur, we have alternative sources available.

(17)  Subsequent Events

On February 4, we held a special meeting with shareholders to vote on a one-for-four reverse stock split on our shares of common stock. On February 19, 2008 we completed a one-for-four reverse stock split resulting in our total shares issued and outstanding and outstanding stock options decreasing with a one-to-four ratio.

As of March 6, 2008, we have completed our application for listing our common stock on the market operated by NASDAQ and our application has been approved. NASDAQ has notified us that we are allowed to begin trading as of March 13, 2008..
