Item 1. BUSINESS.

American Bank Note Holographics, Inc. (“ABNH” or the “Company”) originates, produces, markets and sells holograms and products incorporating holograms. The Company’s products are used primarily in security applications including authentication of transaction cards, identity documents, documents of value and various consumer products. The Company operates in one reportable industry segment. Our ability to create distinctive, secure optically variable devices, to reproduce them with high quality and to distribute them securely has enabled us to become a market leader in security holography. Our products are used by over 200 companies worldwide, including MasterCard, VISA, American Express, Discover, Diners Club, Sears, Nordstrom, Quaker State, Sony, Nike, Eli Lilly, and Janssen-Cilag as well as the United States government and other governments and companies. We also produce non-secure holograms for design and promotional applications.

We believe we have a number of strengths that provide us with a competitive advantage in the security sector of the holography industry, including:

•our reputation as a quality supplier of secure holograms with over 20 years of experience in the industry,

•our expertise in  holographic technology and production techniques which enables us to offer effective security solutions for a variety of end use markets and application environments,

•our secure production and distribution processes and capabilities which qualify us to meet the stringent requirements of security conscious customers,

•our origination laboratories, which enable us to produce distinctive holograms with a variety of security features that make them difficult to counterfeit, and

•our integrated manufacturing facilities, which allow us to mass produce our products in accordance with the highest quality standards.

The Holography Industry

A hologram is a unique type of image that is created through the diffraction of light at pre-determined angles to create various visual effects. Holograms are created with special laser configurations and do not use ink, thereby enabling a holographic image to be easily distinguished from a traditionally printed or copied image. When a hologram is viewed from different angles, the viewer is able to see features such as depth and movement, which would not typically be possible in most two-dimensional images. Holograms can also include information that is detectable only with the aid of special devices.

The holography industry is divided into two main sectors: security and non-security.

Security

The security sector of the holography industry includes products that protect and authenticate transaction cards, documents of value, consumer and industrial products and identification cards. Using holography, and other techniques, we can develop a unique holographic security device for each customer with which to identify and protect the customer’s products. Holograms provide the following major benefits as security devices:

3

•difficult to copy - holograms cannot be copied with conventional copying equipment such as color copiers or scanners. The unique properties and high resolution of a security hologram make it extremely difficult to replicate even with specialized equipment and expertise.

•overt features - the unique visual aspects of a hologram are easily recognizable, making authentication of products and documents practical for the general public without special machinery, equipment or training. Overt features that we offer include:

•3-D Imagery - an image that has three dimensions and gives the illusion of depth or varying distances.

•TrueColor- a holographic image that gives the illusion of color.

•Parallax - images created on different planes that move in relation to one another when viewed from different angles.

•Secondary Flip Image - an image that appears and disappears when viewed at certain angles.

•Diffractive Mercurial - a bright, sharp, color shifting two-dimensional image.

•Animation - a two or three-dimensional image that gives the illusion of motion.

•covert features - hidden features that can only be detected with high-powered microscopes or specialized readers can be incorporated into a hologram to make it more difficult to counterfeit, facilitate verification in the field and support forensic investigation. Covert features that we offer include:

•Hidden Latent Image - a hidden element within a holographic image that is machine-readable only with a proprietary reader.

•HoloScan™ - ABNH’s hidden machine readable code within a holographic image that can be read with special readers.

•Micro Imagery - text or a logo within a holographic image that is visible only under magnification.

•Nano Imagery - microscopic text or a logo within a holographic image that is visible only with high-powered magnification.

•physical features - features that can be combined with holographic materials to increase the security of the holographic product. Physical features that we offer include:

•HoloMag^TM – an integrated hologram and magnetic stripe.

•Micro-demetallization - - a feature whereby a designed portion of the vacuum deposited aluminum materials are removed from the holographic film to create additional unique features that can be used to differentiate and authenticate the materials. This can be used to create see through screens, additional micro text in the metallization layer, and images that are only visible under magnification.

•Tamper Apparent - - an invisible feature used in labels which when combined with the holographic image will act as a self destructive layer and produce a predictable release pattern that indicates that a product has been tampered with or altered. This release pattern can be in the form of a customized or generic design.

4

•Taggants – unique features which are added during the manufacturing process to the holographic films or coatings that are verifiable by specialized equipment.

The security sector of the holography industry addresses concerns relating to counterfeiting, diversion, tampering and fraud. The cost of the hologram is generally relatively small compared to the value of the item being protected and the risk of loss. Consequently, customers typically select suppliers primarily based on the effectiveness of their security solutions, quality, reliability and price.

Our research, product development, marketing and sales activities are primarily focused on the security sector of the holography industry. We offer a diverse set of security, authentication and design features. Based on customer specific needs and applications, we can combine these techniques creating a unique set of effects in a well-constructed and effective holographic security product.

Non-Security

The non-security sector of the holography industry includes design, packaging and other decorative applications.

The unique visual appeal of holograms makes them attractive for use on consumer products. Holograms are used to enhance the design of a wide variety of products including greeting cards, decorative clothing, point-of-purchase displays, and for other promotional uses. Holograms are also used for packaging of food and other products. These holograms are generally used on consumer product packaging for their eye-catching appeal, including packaging for candy, beer, toothpaste, soft drinks and other consumer products. Non-secure holograms are generally not as complex, secure or proprietary as security holograms. Since there are more companies capable of producing non-secure holograms than there are qualified to produce and market security holograms, the competition is more intense in the non-security sector, and the margins are typically lower than in the security market. Customers in the non-security sector of the holographic industry typically distinguish between suppliers primarily based upon price, quality and production capacity.

Markets and Products

We have five target markets, and we market various products to meet the needs of these markets:

Transaction Cards. In the early 1980’s, we began marketing our secure holograms for use on transaction cards and, as a result, helped to create and expand the security sector of the holography market. Since that time, holograms have been established as an important fraud prevention device on transaction cards. They are also commonly used to enhance the brand image of a transaction card issuer. Our products include:

Holographic Hot-Stamp Patch. Our largest source of revenue since our inception has been security holograms embossed into hot-stamp foil, for transaction card authentication. Holographic hot-stamp patches can also enhance the design and branding of a card. Our customers for this product include the issuers or manufacturers of MasterCard, VISA, American Express, Diners Club, Sears and various other retail and payment cards. We are the market leader in this segment and have developed a secure, global distribution system for secure holograms to the payment card industry.

HoloMag^TM. HoloMag is an integrated holographic magnetic stripe. HoloMag significantly enhances the security of a card with overt, covert and machine readable security features. HoloMag also supports the branding objectives of card issuers with attractive imagery on the magnetic stripe while freeing up space on the front of cards.

5

HoloCard^TM. HoloCard incorporates a hologram on a card’s entire face, creating a customized marketing tool and a counterfeit deterrent. A full-faced hologram can support brand recognition, product enhancement campaigns, customer retention and overall product differentiation efforts.

Identification Documents. We provide secure holographic laminates and patches for identity documents such as national ID cards, passports, government credentials, military credentials and drivers’ licenses. We have patents on demetallized holograms which are transparent and used to see printed information under the holograms.

We believe there are significant security advantages for demetallized holograms used on ID cards and other documents. We currently supply demetallized laminates for certain secure U.S. government credentials as well as national IDs for certain foreign countries. We believe there is a need to improve the security of many identity documents used in the United States and other countries, and we are proposing security holograms as a component of the security enhancements that are being considered by major issuers of identification documents.

Product Authentication and Security Packaging. The use of holograms for product authentication and security packaging is driven by concerns regarding counterfeiting, piracy, pilfering, diversion and other infractions that can result in lost sales, lost goodwill and product liability claims. Holograms are used as authentication devices in, among others, pharmaceuticals, licensed consumer products and high value consumer and industrial products. Product authentication holograms are either machine or hand-applied to individual products. A holographic label that is tampered with can become permanently damaged, leaving a visible footprint on the product. Our products for this market segment include:

Holographic Labels. Our pressure-sensitive label is available with a broad array of authenticating features such as demetallizing, latent imagery, machine readability and other overt and covert features. By combining multiple security techniques, we achieve higher levels of security and make the entire product or package easier to authenticate and difficult to simulate.

HoloSeal^TM. HoloSeal integrates several key security features into one innovative device. A high security hologram, customized tamper-apparent break pattern, black light verification system and machine-readable embedded code are all features of this security label. In addition, HoloSeal can be manufactured to be transparent or semi-transparent so that printed regulatory or marketing copy can be seen through the hologram.

HoloCap^TM. HoloCap is ABNH’s innovative approach to sealing bottles or containers with a higher level of security. Utilizing an induction seal process, this application provides for authentication, tamper-resistance and branding. A holographic layer becomes part of the seal itself. HoloCap can be combined with other security features to create an effective approach for the security needs of a wide range of sealed products.

Holographic Shrink Sleeves. ABNH has developed a heat-shrink seal with an integrated holographic stripe that can be applied to the lids of bottles to deter product fraud and tampering. By including overt and covert security features within the hologram, a customized tamper-apparent break pattern and an embedded black light verification system, ABNH’s holographic shrink sleeves provide manufacturers of bottled goods with a tool to combat criminals that, at the same time, can be easily integrated into a customer’s existing manufacturing operations.

Documents of Value. Concerns over counterfeiting and copying have led to an increased use of holograms produced by international suppliers for international markets for currency, checks, gift certificates, tax stamps and other financial instruments. While this market may provide a future growth opportunity for the Company, we have had minimal sales in this market to date. Holographic products for

6

paper documents of value include:

Holographic Thread. A holographic thread is a security device made up of a narrow-strip hologram, approximately 2-5 millimeters wide, and is typically incorporated into the paper substrate at the security paper mill. The hologram is often partially embedded into the paper creating a window or serpentine-thread. This holographic product offers both visual and covert security features and helps raise the recognition and perceived value of the document it is embedded into. We produce holographic material for security threads with our proprietary process, which we believe provides significant advantages for brighter and more durable holographic threads compared to other methods of holographic replication.

Holographic Ribbons. A holographic ribbon is an anti-counterfeiting device that can be used on documents of value such as checks and currency. The system is comprised of a narrow strip hologram made of hot-stamp foil and slit into ribbons that are applied on security paper by either the paper maker or the printer.

Holographic Patch. A holographic patch is created by embossing a hologram into hot-stamp foil, and is used for authenticating currency and other secure documents. It is machine applied for registered placement and quality. Depending on the design of the document, patches can be created to meet specific size, shape, creative and security requirements. A holographic patch is applied with heat and pressure forming a distinctly recognizable, security component of the document.

Commercial. We also produce holographic imagery for decorative and promotional purposes. Our products for this market include pressure sensitive labels with a rich array of designs and wide web holographic patterns for flexible packaging applications.

Strategy

Protect and Enhance Our Position in Our Core Transaction Card Business. We hold a leadership position in the market for holograms on transaction cards as a result of our relationships with leading transaction card companies and many of the major security card manufacturers. We intend to maintain our leadership position in the card industry and grow through excellent customer service and the distribution of new products that address the security needs and design objectives of this market.

Focus Sales and Marketing. We have narrowed the focus of our sales and marketing efforts to those specific applications within our target markets in which we can establish and sustain competitive advantages through a combination of product differentiation, intellectual property and market position.

Broaden and Enhance Our Security Offerings. We are developing better security solutions for our target markets which incorporate innovative applications of holography and other complementary technologies.

Control Costs. We have invested in and intend to continue to invest in more efficient operations and prudently manage our expenses to strengthen our competitive position and enhance profitability.

Strengthen Operational Capabilities. We have made significant investments in our facilities and our manufacturing capabilities and intend to continue to invest in enhancing our production and operational capabilities to broaden our product range, improve the products and services we provide to our customers, become more vertically integrated in our manufacturing operations and to gain operational efficiencies.

Production Processes

We are one of the most experienced security production companies in the holographic industry. Our new facility in Robbinsville, New Jersey combines the operations that were previously conducted in our

7

facilities in Elmsford, New York and Huntingdon Valley, Pennsylvania while expanding and broadening our production capabilities. In this facility, we operate a holographic design studio, six holographic origination laboratories, a recombining operation, electroforming, plate making, eighteen mass replication lines, converting and finishing operations as well as extensive quality control and security procedures. Additionally we have high security warehouse and shipping and receiving areas.

Our production process is integrated to handle most aspects of production, including materials sourcing, processing, finishing, packaging, storage and logistics. We generally design and originate our own holograms in our facility in Robbinsville New Jersey. We subcontract certain production functions or products, including HoloMag, to third parties. The production process for holograms produced by the Company consists of the following steps:

Design

The first step of the production process is the design of the hologram. In our art department, our experienced personnel work with the customer to develop a conceptual design that incorporates the necessary features, both security and non-security, to satisfy the customer’s requirements.

Origination

After the design has been completed, various laser-ready components (magnetic disc, three-dimensional sculpture, flat art, etc., referred to as “information”) are delivered to our holographic origination studios.

The conversion from information to hologram is based on our ability to record light in an organized format. Coherent light, which is delivered by a laser, is best understood as light, which has one wavelength of the visible spectrum and possesses a high degree of organization. The coherent light is split into two beams (the object beam and the reference beam) directed toward photo-resist treated glass. The object beam is interfered with by the information before continuing its travel toward the photo-resist treated glass. The reference beam is not interfered with and travels directly toward the photo-resist treated glass.

The object beam then interferes with the reference beam, creating an interference pattern, which is recorded on the light sensitive photo-resist glass. After developing the photo-resist glass, the film is re-illuminated approximating the original angle(s) of the reference beam. The resulting interference pattern within the film reflects some of the light, striking it into a re-creation of the pattern of light that originally came from the object beam, due to a property of light called diffraction. The reflected light, now organized and containing all information that the object beam once carried, allows the viewer to see all of the information in three dimensions, true color or with other desired effects. There are less complex methods of creating a hologram origination than the process described above. However, in our opinion, the above process produces the clarity, depth perception, movement and mass replication properties that are essential components of our secure holograms. We believe that our largest competitors in the security sector may use similar processes among others.

Plate Making

Once the origination process is completed, a plate is created in order to permit mass production. The “one-up” image is “step and repeated” to a pre-determined size with multiple identical images recorded on a photo-resist glass. We have designed and built a proprietary step and repeat process to create very precise plates for mass production of tightly registered images. The glass is then converted to a production plate in an electrolytic process where nickel is grown on the surface of the glass. Nickel is used because its molecular nature allows for an exact transfer of the origination to the production plate. We believe that our plate making process is an important component of our ability to mass-produce our

8

secure holograms with high precision.

The electrolytic process creates different “generations” of plates prior to the production phase. Each generation, identical to the last, creates a more wear resistant plate for use in a mass production environment, thereby extending the useful life of the plate. The production plate will have varying degrees of hardness, depending upon the processes used in production.

Mass Production

Manufacturing specifications are determined in collaboration with the customer. We typically enter into production planning with the customer where drawings and overall specifications are written and distributed to the various production and quality control departments.

We employ three methods of mass-production of holograms. Hard embossing transfers images to an aluminum foil/polyester substrate through heat and pressure. Heat and pressure on the holographic plate force the holographic image into the foil, which is then converted into the final product. Soft or compliant embossing permits embossing into pre-metallized and other films and allows for embossing on wider-web materials.

The other method of mass production we employ is casting. We developed a proprietary casting method involving ultraviolet curing, which we refer to as In-Situ Polymeric Replication. Using this method, a polymer is transferred to a substrate (polyester, polypropylene, etc.) which is then put in contact with the holographic plate so that holographic imagery is replicated. The material is then metallized using a vacuum deposition process.

Finishing for each of these methods may include some combination of metallization, demetallization, application of adhesive, magnetic coating, slitting, die-cutting, lamination and custom numbering. The completed holographic material may then be applied to the customer’s product.

We perform the above processes through a combination of our internal production resources and outside subcontractors.

Procurement of Key Materials and Products

We purchase certain key materials used in the manufacture of our products, and subcontract certain production functions or products from third parties some of which are sole suppliers. In some cases, we do not have supply contracts with our suppliers, and operate on a purchase order basis. In the case of HoloMag, we have a single supplier, CFC International, Inc., with whom we have a supply contract. We may not be able to find alternative sources in a timely manner if our suppliers or subcontractors become unwilling or unable to supply us, or if they increase their prices. Our inability to obtain key product components or to have certain processes performed on our behalf could cause delays or reduce product shipments, which could cause our relationship with customers to suffer and materially and adversely affect our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.

Quality

Through an extensive quality assurance program, we continually make improvements to our processes through the use of an effective and efficient business management system.

In 2005, we moved and consolidated our facilities from Elmsford, New York and Huntingdon Valley, Pennsylvania into a new facility in Robbinsville, New Jersey. (See “Manufacturing Facilities” below and “Item 2. Properties”). We began the ISO 9001-2000 certification process for this facility during 2005.

9

Information Technology

We have implemented an integrated enterprise resource planning system that provides information for management decision making. We made improvements to this system in 2005 and we intend to make additional improvements in 2006.

Research and Product Development

We have devoted significant attention to research and product development to continue to enhance our origination, replication and mass production capabilities as well as the features and performance of our products. Our research and development has enabled us to create new technologies and proprietary production processes and to deliver innovative products to the marketplace. We intend to continue to make on-going investments in research and development in order to:

•Develop better solutions for our customers’ problems.

•Create features which differentiate our products from those of our competitors.

•Develop and improve processing techniques to improve the quality and reduce the costs of our products.

Manufacturing Facilities

On December 14, 2004, we entered into agreements to lease a 134,000 square foot modern manufacturing and office building in Robbinsville, New Jersey. During 2005, substantial construction was completed within this facility to meet our specialized operational and security requirements and this facility has become the site for our primary operations. The new facility provides substantial room for expansion as we consolidated our operations that were conducted within a 58,000 square foot facility in Elmsford, New York and a 30,000 square foot facility in Huntingdon Valley, Pennsylvania into the new facility. We are currently evaluating the possible use of the Huntingdon Valley facility for certain manufacturing and secure storage. We have also  acquired  and installed additional equipment and technology in the Robbinsville facility in order to broaden our capabilities to serve our target customers, expand capacity, become more vertically integrated and improve efficiency. See “Item 2. Properties.”

Sales and Marketing

In 2005, we provided holographic products to over 200 customers worldwide. The majority of these customers are manufacturers of secure transaction cards. We are the exclusive supplier of holograms to MasterCard and we are one of two authorized manufacturers of VISA Dove holograms for sale to approved manufacturers of VISA cards. In 2005, we supplied holographic magnetic stripes for VISA, MasterCard, American Express and Diners Club cards. See Item 1A. “Risk Factors– VISA’s decision to discontinue the use of the current version of HoloMag will have a material adverse effect on our results of operations and financial condition”. In addition, we supply holograms to Sears, Nordstrom, Quaker State, Sony, Nike, Exxon Mobil, Janssen-Cilag and Eli Lilly, as well as the United States government and other governments and companies.

In the sales department we currently employ a Vice President of Sales, a Vice President of Corporate Development, and two full-time, incentive-compensated salespeople. We also utilize incentive-based international sales agents around the world. During 2005, as a result of the roll-out of our HoloMag product we reorganized and expanded our Customer Service group by adding a Director of Customer Service and four customer service personnel.

Our sales process generally involves identifying a customer need, designing a solution for the customer

10

need, creating samples for customer evaluation and testing. Most of our target customers are transaction card issuers, government agencies and large corporations that are experiencing counterfeiting or other security problems. The sales process is generally at least three months, and in some cases, the sales process can last several years.

Pricing decisions are generally made centrally by our operating executives. We focus some of our marketing efforts on trade shows such as the Card Tech/SecureTech trade show, Cartes and a number of other security industry conferences around the world.

Competition

The holographic, magnetic tape and product security industries are highly competitive and highly fragmented. A number of our competitors are larger, and have greater financial resources, than us. Our industry has become increasingly competitive over the past several years as low cost foreign producers have entered our target markets, and low cost holographic producers that previously focused on non-security applications are increasingly competing in security applications. The holographic industry has also experienced consolidation, which has increased the breadth and scale of some of our competitors. In the holographic industry, competition is generally based on technology, price, product quality and customer service. We also compete with other non-holographic methods or devices.

Trademarks and Patents

We utilize a combination of patents, trade secrets and confidentiality agreements, as well as restricted access and other forms of intellectual property protection, to safeguard certain of our proprietary technology and processes. We also hold certain trademarks with respect to certain products and services. We currently hold approximately 30 U.S. patents and numerous foreign patents, as well as patents pending and service marks that are used in our business.

We cannot assure you that the degree of protection offered by our patents is sufficient; the success of any of our enforcement actions or the likelihood that patents will be issued for pending applications. Competitors in the U.S. and foreign countries may have applied for or obtained, or may in the future apply for and obtain, patents that will prevent, limit or interfere with our ability to make and sell some of our products.

Employees

As of March 15, 2006, we employed 120 persons of which 57 are covered by collective bargaining agreements. We consider our relations with our employees to be good. We are party to a collective bargaining agreement with Paper, Allied-Industrial, Chemical & Energy Workers International Union Local 286 (“Local 286”). Prior to our consolidation in Robbinsville, New Jersey we also had employees covered by an agreement with PACE International Union Local 1-0318. In connection with ourmove to Robbinsville, New Jersey, we  entered into a closure agreement with Local 1-0318, dated March 19, 2005, that provided for the termination of the contract with Local 1-0318. The agreement with Local 286 has a five-year term, which will expire on January 28, 2010.

Item 1A.RISK FACTORS

Important Factors Regarding Forward-Looking Statements

In addition to other information in this Annual Report on Form 10-K, the following risk factors should be carefully considered in evaluating our business and us because these factors currently have a significant impact or may have a significant impact on our business, operating results or financial condition. This Form 10-K contains forward-looking statements that have been made pursuant to the provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Actual results could differ materially from those projected in the forward-looking statements as a result of the risk factors set forth below and elsewhere in this Form 10-K.

VISA’s decision to discontinue the use of the current version of HoloMag  had a material adverse effect on our results of operations and financial condition in the quarter ended December 31, 2005 and will continue to impact our results of operations and financial condition in 2006.

Sales to manufacturers of VISA transaction cards were approximately 37%, 31% and 30% of sales for the years ended December 31, 2005, 2004 and 2003, respectively. Currently we are one of two companies authorized to manufacture and sell the VISA Dove hot stamp holograms to manufacturers of VISA brand transaction cards.On March 15, 2005, VISA announced its intention to phase out the Dove hot stamp hologram that we supply for the front of the VISA card, and to replace it with an integrated holographic magnetic stripe. On April 8, 2005, we entered into an Agreement with VISA, pursuant to which we are authorized to supply HoloMag to VISA approved card manufacturers. Sales of HoloMag to VISA authorized card manufacturers amounted to $2.3 million and $3.8 in the three months ended September 30, 2005 and December 31, 2005, respectively. We previously reported that we had learned of a small number of incidents in which certain card terminals had been affected by electro-static discharge (“ESD”) from static electricity carried on cards incorporating HoloMag. On March 14, 2006, we were informed by VISA that, as a result of the ESD issue, VISA is informing its member financial institutions and authorized card manufacturers that (i) VISA will no longer approve VISA card designs which incorporate the current version of HoloMag, (ii) VISA strongly recommends that their members attempt to avoid further issuance of cards incorporating the current version of HoloMag and (iii) VISA recommends that their members follow an alternate card design incorporating a conventional magnetic stripe and Dove hologram and VISA also provided notice to us that it was revoking our right to produce HoloMag under its agreement (the “VISA Decision”). VISA’s decision to discontinue the use of the current version of HoloMag and the resulting cessation of sales has had, and will continue to have a material adverse effect on our results of operations and financial condition.

As a result of the VISA Decision, the Company’s results of operations for the quarter and year ended December 31, 2005 have been materially affected. In the quarter ended December 31, 2005, as a result of the VISA Decision, we recorded a pre-tax charge amounting to approximately $5.0 million of which $4.8 million was recorded in cost of goods sold and was principally related to the value of our HoloMag inventory. Also included in the charge were increases in our provisions for accounts receivable and potential non-ESD related warranty claims. We will review the valuation of these accounts on an ongoing basis as part of our closing process and make appropriate changes to our reserve levels based upon the facts at the time. Sales of HoloMag to VISA authorized transaction card manufacturers began in the quarter ended September 30, 2005 and amounted $2.3 million in that quarter. In the quarter ended December 31, 2005 HoloMag sales to VISA authorized card manufacturers amounted to $3.8 million. Sales of VISA HoloMag continued to grow in the first quarter of 2006 compared to the prior quarter until the announcement by VISA on March 14, 2006. Accordingly, our sales in the quarter ending March 31, 2006 are expected to be higher than the level of the quarter ended December 31, 2005 and are expected to decline thereafter as a result of the VISA Decision.

We are currently working on the development of a second generation of holographic magnetic tape, but there can be no assurance that we will be successful in developing such a product, or that any such product will be acceptable to our customers. Further there can be no assurance that a competitor of ours will not develop an acceptable product that is adopted by our customers.

12

We may be subject to claims arising from the suspension of sales of HoloMag for VISA transaction cards.

In its correspondence to us relating to HoloMag, VISA has stated to us its view that “a remediation program for impacted stakeholders may be necessary” and that VISA would seek indemnification from us for such costs and/or claims. We have been evaluating VISA’s actions and claims and have submitted our initial response to VISA. VISA has recommended to its members that cards bearing the HoloMag product already in the market be replaced as soon as practical. Additionally, as a result of VISA’s notification to financial institutions and authorized card manufacturers, we have received communications from customers seeking to address the status and disposition of their HoloMag inventory and orders.

In the event that VISA or other third parties assert claims against us, our financial condition and results of operations may be adversely affected.

We depend on sales to transaction card companies for a substantial portion of our revenue, the loss of which would have a material adverse effect on our business.

A significant portion of the Company’s business is derived from orders placed by certain transaction card companies and manufacturers of transaction cards, and variations in the timing of such orders can cause significant fluctuations in the Company’s sales. Sales to transaction card companies and manufacturers of transaction cards accounted for approximately 86% of our total sales in 2005 and 84% of our total sales in 2004. The traditional hot stamp patch hologram on many transaction cards is being phased out by some of our major customers and is being replaced by an integrated holographic magnetic stripe. We previously reported that we had learned of a small number of incidents in which certain card terminals had been affected by electro-static discharge (“ESD”) from static electricity carried on cards incorporating the current version of HoloMag. We have been advised by customers that there is a need to develop a second generation holographic magnetic tape product that addresses ESD and we have commenced such development. There can be no assurance that we will be successful in developing such a product that will be acceptable to our customers. Further there can be no assurance that a competitor of ours will not develop an acceptable product that is adopted by our customers. To the extent that we experience declining sales of HoloMag or traditional hot stamp patch holograms to our transaction card customers, without replacing such sales with sales of new products, our business, operating results and financial condition would be materially and adversely affected.

We depend on sales to MasterCard for a substantial portion of our revenue, the loss of which would have a material adverse effect on our business.

Sales to MasterCard were approximately 31% and 35% of sales for the years ended December 31, 2005 and 2004, respectively. The Company has an agreement with MasterCard, as amended, pursuant to which the Company is the exclusive supplier of MasterCard holograms and holographic magnetic stripes, HoloMag™. In the quarter ended September 30, 2005, MasterCard advised its member financial institutions around the world that it will allow them to choose among card designs that incorporate either the traditional hot stamp patch hologram or HoloMag, both of which are supplied by the Company. The agreement with MasterCard was amended on August 24, 2005, and expires on February 28, 2013, subject to automatic renewal thereafter.

If we were to lose a substantial portion of our business with MasterCard without replacing it with new product sales, our business, operating results and financial condition would be materially and adversely affected. In addition, if we fail to obtain anticipated orders from MasterCard or if we experience delays or cancellations of orders from MasterCard, our business and financial performance will be materially and adversely affected.

13

Our quarterly and annual operating results may fluctuate and the price of our common stock may change in response to those fluctuations.

Our quarterly and annual operating results have varied in the past and may vary significantly in the future depending on factors such as:

•the impact of the VISA Decision on our business,

•timing of customer orders,

•customer business cycles,

•cancellation or expiration of customer contracts or programs,

•card expiration patterns,

•inventory replenishment,

•increased competition,

•changes in our and our competitors’ pricing policies,

•changes in the cost of materials or labor,

•cost and availability of the services of subcontractors,

•costs of recruiting or relocating personnel,

•increased research and development expenses,

•expenses associated with litigation,

•market acceptance of our products,

•the time required for customer testing and evaluation,

•costs associated with implementing changes in operations,

•investments in new technology and equipment,

•changes in facility requirements,

•changes in our business strategy, and

•general economic factors.

Because our revenues and operating results may fluctuate, it is possible that in some future quarter, our revenues or operating results will be below the expectations of public market analysts and investors, which could cause our stock price to decrease.

We are in a competitive, highly-fragmented industry with many companies competing to deliver a highly-specialized product, which may lead to declining sales or reduced prices for our products.

The holographic, magnetic tape and product security industries are highly competitive and highly fragmented. A number of our competitors are larger, and have greater financial resources, than us. Our competitors, which are numerous and may have more resources than us, may take away market share or compete with us on the basis of price, which may erode our prices and margins. Our industry has become

14

increasingly competitive over the past several years as low cost foreign producers have entered our target markets, and low cost holographic producers that previously focused on non-security applications are increasingly competing in security applications. The holographic industry has also experienced consolidation, which has increased the breadth and scale of some of our competitors. Increasing competition in the market for our security holograms has resulted in declining sales prices for certain products. Competitive pressures may force us to reduce prices, which can adversely affect our results of operations.

Competition is based on a number of factors, such as:

•price,

•technology,

•product quality, and

•customer service.

In addition, an increased use of non-holographic methods or devices in place of our products could reduce demand for our products. We cannot assure you that we will have sufficient resources to make the technological advances necessary to maintain any competitive advantages. We also cannot assure you that the bases of competition in the industries in which we compete will not shift.

We have been advised by customers that there is a need to develop a second generation holographic magnetic tape product that addresses ESD from static electricity carried on cards incorporating the current version of HoloMag, and we have commenced such development. There can be no assurance that we will be successful in developing such a product that will be acceptable to our customers. We are aware that competitors are working to develop products that would compete with our current and potential future offerings including a second generation of holographic magnetic tape that does not give rise to ESD issues.

If we are not able to successfully protect our intellectual property our business could be materially and adversely affected.

Our business is dependent to some extent upon our proprietary technology. We utilize a combination of patents, trade secrets and confidentiality agreements, as well as restricted access and other forms of intellectual property protection to safeguard certain of our proprietary technology and processes. We also hold certain trademarks with respect to certain products and services. We cannot be certain as to the degree of protection offered by any of our patents or as to the likelihood that patents will be issued for any of our pending applications. Certain of our patents have expired and others have been declared invalid in the past. Other patents will expire over the next several years. We can not assure you that we will be able to maintain the confidentiality of our trade secrets or that our confidentiality agreements will provide meaningful protection of our trade secrets or other proprietary information. In addition, litigation may be necessary in the future to enforce our intellectual property rights or to determine the validity and scope of our patents or of the proprietary rights of others. Such litigation might result in substantial costs and diversion of resources and management attention.

If our products infringe on the intellectual property rights of third-parties, our business may suffer if we are sued for infringement or cannot obtain licenses to these rights on commercially acceptable terms.

We are subject to the risk of adverse claims and litigation alleging infringement by us of the intellectual property rights of others. In the past, third-parties have claimed, and may in the future claim, infringement by our products. Any such claims, with or without merit, could result in significant litigation costs and diversion of management attention, and could require us to enter into royalty and license agreements that may be disadvantageous to us or cause other harm to our business. If litigation is successful against us, it

15

could result in invalidation of our proprietary rights and liability for damages, which could have a material adverse effect on our business and financial condition.

We depend on third-party suppliers and subcontractors for some key products and processes, and we may not be able to find alternative sources in a timely manner if those suppliers or subcontractors fail to supply us.

We purchase certain key materials used in the manufacture of our products, and subcontract certain production functions or products from third parties some of which are sole suppliers. In some cases, we do not have supply contracts with our suppliers, and operate on a purchase order basis. In the case of HoloMag, we have a single supplier, CFC International, Inc., with whom we have a supply contract. We may not be able to find alternative sources in a timely manner if our suppliers or subcontractors become unwilling or unable to supply us, or if they increase their prices. Our inability to obtain key product components or to have certain processes performed on our behalf could cause delays or reduce product shipments, which could cause our relationship with customers to suffer and materially and adversely affect our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.

Our common stock trades on the OTC Bulletin Board, which may adversely affect the price of our common stock.

Our common stock trades on the over-the-counter bulletin board (OTCBB), an electronic quotation service. The OTCBB does not impose listing standards or requirements, does not provide automatic trade executions and does not maintain relationships with quoted issuers. Stocks traded on the OTCBB may experience:

•a loss of market makers,

•a lack of readily available bid and ask prices,

•a greater spread between the bid and ask prices of its stock, and

•a general loss of liquidity compared to established stock exchanges or the NASDAQ National Market.

In addition, many investors have policies against purchasing or holding OTCBB securities. Both trading volume and the market value of our stock have been, and will continue to be, affected by trading on the OTCBB, which may adversely affect the price of our stock and make it difficult for our stockholders to resell their shares.

If we were unable to continue to attract and retain qualified employees, our business, operating results and financial condition could be materially and adversely affected.

While we have added significantly to our talent pool in 2005 our future success continues to depend on our ability to attract and retain qualified:

•management,

•engineering,

•manufacturing,

•research and development,

•sales and marketing, and

•customer support personnel.

Competition for these individuals is intense, and we cannot assure you that we will be able to retain our existing personnel or attract and retain additional personnel.

16

We may be subject to significant product liability in connection with the products which we provide to our customers.

We provide holograms in connection with a wide range of our customers’ products, in which case it is possible that we are subjecting ourselves to product liabilities in association with those products or in connection with the holograms used with those products. Although we maintain product liability insurance, there can be no assurance that such insurance would be available to cover any such claim or available in amounts sufficient to cover all potential liabilities.

Since a significant percentage of our sales are derived from overseas customers, our exports and business may be subject to some risks related to doing business internationally.

Sales derived from customers outside the United States were 34% of our total sales in 2005 and 21% of our total sales in 2004. Our international sales are subject to risks, including:

•U.S. and international regulatory requirements and policy changes,

•exchange rate fluctuations,

•political and economic instability,

•difficulties in accounts receivable collection,

•tariffs and other barriers, and

•difficulty in attracting, retaining and managing international representatives.

These factors may have a material adverse effect on our future international sales, and consequently our business, financial condition or results of operations.

Our business is subject to environmental regulation and is always subject to environmental liability.

Our operations are subject to federal, state and local environmental laws and regulations. If we fail to comply with applicable rules and regulations, we could be subject to monetary damages and injunctive action, which could materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition or results of operations. To the extent future laws and regulations are adopted or interpretations of existing laws and regulations change, new requirements may be imposed on our future activities or may create liability retroactively.

The issuance of shares of our common stock upon exercise of outstanding options, together with the potential sales of such shares in the public market, could result in substantial dilution of your investment, a detrimental effect on our liquidity and ability to raise additional capital, and a significant decline in the market value of our common stock.

As of March 15, 2006, we had 18,888,144 shares of our common stock issued and outstanding and 3,151,263 additional shares of common stock reserved for issuance upon exercise of outstanding stock options. If the holders of shares of common stock acquired upon the exercise of outstanding options or the lapse of the sale restrictions on restricted stock grants were to sell a significant amount of their shares into the open market, the market price of our common stock could be adversely affected. The sales might also make it more difficult for us to sell equity or equity-related securities in the future at a price we deem appropriate.

Crane & Co. Inc. has certain rights which could adversely affect the market price of our common stock.

On June 30, 2000, we entered into a stock purchase agreement with Crane & Co., Inc. (“Crane”) under which Crane purchased 3,387,720 shares of our common stock. This stock is not currently registered for

17

public resale, but may be sold (i) in privately negotiated transactions, (ii) pursuant to Rule 144 in the public market, and subject to the volume restrictions of Rule 144, or (iii) pursuant to a registration statement filed by the Company. Crane has the right to demand registration on Form S-3 in the event Form S-3 is available to the Company. Since our stock trades on the OTC Bulletin Board the Form S-3 is not currently available to the Company. Crane also has piggy-back registration rights which require us to register its stock in the event the Company files a registration statement to sell common stock. On November 30, 2005 we were informed by Crane & Co., Inc. of their intention to sell a portion or all of their shares in an orderly manner. If the sale of these shares is not conducted in an orderly fashion it could have a negative impact on the price of our common stock. If we are required to register Crane’s common stock, the Company will incur legal, accounting and other expenses associated with the registration and sale, and the registration and sale of Crane’s common stock may have an impact on the market for our common stock. To date, we are not aware that Crane has sold any shares.

Our principal stockholders, executive officers and directors have substantial influence over all matters requiring stockholder approval, including a change of control that you might otherwise approve.

Our principal stockholders, executive officers and directors and entities related to them, in the aggregate, beneficially own approximately 48% of our common stock as of March 15, 2006. These stockholders acting together have the ability to exert substantial influence over all matters requiring approval by our stockholders. These matters include the election and removal of directors and any merger, consolidation or sale of all or substantially all of our assets. Such a concentration of ownership could have the effect of delaying, deferring or preventing a change in control, or impeding a merger or consolidation, takeover or other business combination.

Effects of anti-takeover provisions could inhibit the acquisition of ABNH.

Our certificate of incorporation permits our board of directors to issue up to 5,000,000 shares of preferred stock and to fix the rights, preferences, privileges and restrictions of such shares without any further vote or action by our stockholders. Although we have no current plans to issue shares of preferred stock, the potential issuance of preferred stock may have the effect of:

•discouraging potential acquisitions proposals,

•delaying or preventing a change in control, and

•limiting the price that investors might be willing to pay in the future for shares of our common stock.

We are also subject to Section 203 of the Delaware General Corporation Law which generally prohibits a Delaware corporation from engaging in any of a broad range of business combinations with any interested stockholder for a period of three years following the date on which the stockholder became an interested stockholder.

Item 1B. UNRESOLVED STAFF COMMENTS.

Not applicable.

Item 2. PROPERTIES.

We maintain secure hologram manufacturing facilities in Robbinsville, New Jersey, Huntingdon Valley, Pennsylvania and Dalton, Massachusetts. During 2005 we moved our headquarters and substantially all of our principal operations, including our design, engineering, research and development, holographic

18

origination, plate making, manufacturing, distribution and quality control for numerous holographic products to our 134,000 square foot leased facility at Robbinsville, New Jersey. The initial lease term for the new facility is through May 2017 and at the expiration of the lease, we have options to renew the lease for three consecutive five year periods and we also have an option to make an offer to purchase the building.

Our 30,000 square foot leased facility at Huntingdon Valley, Pennsylvania was vacated as part of the move and consolidation of operations in 2005. We are currently evaluating the possible use of this facility for certain manufacturing and secure storage. The lease on this facility expires in July 2007.

Our 2,400 square foot leased facility at Dalton, Massachusetts was opened in 2000 and has been dedicated to the production of security holograms.

Our 57,200 square foot leased facility at Elmsford, New York was vacated and all operations previously conducted in the facility were transferred to Robbinsville in 2005. The lease on the facility expires in December 2007. We have the right to sublease and have been attempting to do so since the building was vacated. We are currently negotiating a settlement of our obligations for the remainder of the lease term with the landlord.

Each of our facilities is constantly monitored for security, and has uniformed security personnel on site, 24 hours a day, seven days a week. Our Director of Security is responsible for the physical security of each facility, access and egress, monitoring employee integrity, and safeguarding of machinery, materials, work-in-process and finished product until shipping. The security department witnesses material destruction and supervises the transfer of security shipments. Each facility is equipped with full perimeter alarms enhanced by window glass break sensors, internal motion detectors and closed circuit video monitoring of security sensitive areas.

Item 3. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS.

We currently, and from time to time, are involved in litigation (as both plaintiff and defendant) incidental to the conduct of our business; however, we are not a party to any lawsuit or proceeding which, in our opinion, is likely to have a material impact on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

Item 4. SUBMISSION OF MATTERS TO A VOTE OF SECURITY HOLDERS.

None.

Part II

Item 5. MARKET FOR REGISTRANT’S COMMON EQUITY, RELATED STOCKHOLDER MATTERS AND ISSUER PURCHASES OF EQUITY SECURITIES.

Our common stock has been quoted on the NASD’s Over-the-Counter Bulletin Board quotation service under the symbol “ABHH,” since March 31, 2000. Our securities are not listed or quoted on any exchange or other quotation system.

The following table sets forth the high and low closing prices of our common stock for each quarter of 2004, 2005 and the period from January 1 to March 28 of 2006.

	High		Low
2004
First Quarter	$	2.40	$	1.50
Second Quarter	2.95		1.88
Third Quarter	2.58		1.96
Fourth Quarter	3.98		2.45
2005
First Quarter	$	3.62	$	2.75
Second Quarter	4.13		3.60

Fourth Quarter	6.95		5.05
2006
First Quarter (through March 28, 2006)	$	6.40	$	2.00

As of March 28, 2006, there were approximately 550 holders of record of our common stock. Because many of our shares of common stock are held of record by brokers and other institutions on behalf of stockholders, we are unable to estimate the total number of beneficial stockholders represented by these record holders.

We have not paid cash dividends during the past two fiscal years. We have no plans or intentions of paying dividends in the foreseeable future.

Item 7. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS.

The following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with “Item 6. Selected Financial Data” and our financial statements, including the notes thereto, which appear elsewhere in this report.

Overview

ABNH was, until July 20, 1998, a wholly-owned subsidiary of American Banknote Corporation (“ABN”). On that date, ABN completed the sale of 13,636,000 shares of our common stock in an initial public offering (the “Offering”), representing ABN’s entire investment in ABNH. We did not receive any proceeds from the Offering.

ABNH originates, produces, markets and sells secure holograms and products incorporating secure holograms. The Company’s products are used primarily in security applications including authentication of transaction cards, identity documents, value documents and various consumer products. The Company operates in one reportable industry segment. Our ability to create distinctive, secure optically variable devices, to reproduce them with high quality and to distribute them securely has enabled us to become a market leader in security holography. Our products are sold to over 200 companies worldwide, including MasterCard, VISA, American Express, Discover, Diners Club, Sears, Nordstrom, Quaker State, Nike, Janssen-Cilag and Eli Lilly, as well as agencies of the United States government and certain foreign governments. We also produce non-secure holograms for design and promotional applications.

Concerns regarding counterfeiting, piracy and other infractions that can result in lost sales, lost goodwill and product liability claims drive the use of product authentication holograms. Companies in various industries utilize holograms as authentication devices.

A significant portion of the Company’s business is derived from orders placed by certain transaction card companies, and variations in the timing of such orders can cause significant fluctuations in the Company’s sales. Sales to transaction card companies accounted for approximately 86% of our total sales in 2005 and 84% of our total sales in 2004.

Sales to MasterCard (which includes HoloMag™ starting in the three month period ended December 31, 2005) were approximately 31% and 35% of sales for the years ended December 31, 2005 and 2004, respectively. The Company has an agreement with MasterCard, as amended, pursuant to which the Company is the exclusive supplier of MasterCard holograms and holographic magnetic stripes, HoloMag. In the quarter ended September 30, 2005, MasterCard advised its member financial institutions around the world that it will allow them to choose among card designs that incorporate either the traditional hot stamp patch hologram or HoloMag, both of which are supplied by the Company. The agreement with MasterCard was amended on August 24, 2005, and expires on February 28, 2013, subject to automatic renewal thereafter.

If we were to lose a substantial portion of our business with MasterCard without replacing it with new product sales, our business, operating results and financial condition would be materially and adversely affected. In addition, if we fail to obtain anticipated orders from MasterCard or if we experience delays or cancellations of orders from MasterCard, our business, operating results and financial performance will be materially and adversely affected.

Sales of VISA holograms (which includes HoloMag starting in the three month period ended September 30, 2005) to manufacturers of VISA transaction cards were approximately 37%, 31% and 30% of sales for the years ended December 31, 2005, 2004 and 2003, respectively. Currently we are one of two companies

22

authorized to manufacture and sell the VISA Dove hot stamp holograms to manufacturers of VISA brand transaction cards.On March 15, 2005, VISA announced its intention to phase out the Dove hot stamp hologram that we supply for the front of the VISA card, and to replace it with an integrated holographic magnetic stripe. On April 8, 2005, we entered into an Agreement with VISA, pursuant to which we were authorized to supply HoloMag to VISA-approved card manufacturers. We previously reported that we had learned of a small number of incidents in which certain card terminals had been affected by electro-static discharge (“ESD”) from static electricity carried on cards incorporating HoloMag. On March 14, 2006, we were informed by VISA that, as a result of the ESD issue, VISA is informing its member financial institutions and authorized card manufacturers that (i) VISA will no longer approve VISA card designs which incorporate the current version of HoloMag, (ii) VISA strongly recommends that their members attempt to avoid further issuance of cards incorporating the current version of HoloMag and (iii) VISA recommends that their members follow an alternate card design incorporating a conventional magnetic stripe and Dove hologram and VISA provided notice to us that it was revoking our right to produce HoloMag under its agreement (the “VISA Decision”). We are continuing to evaluate VISA’s actions and claims and have submitted an initial response to VISA. We believe that we are in compliance with our agreement with VISA and that the HoloMag product complies with all standards and specifications contained in our agreement.

Our products are sold on a fixed price basis under purchase orders and contracts with customers. Sales and the related cost of goods sold are generally recognized at the latter of the time of shipment or when title passes to customers. In some situations, the Company has shipped product where the sale is contingent upon the customers’ use of the product. In these situations, the Company does not recognize sales upon product shipment, but rather when the buyer of the product informs the Company that the product has been used. Additionally, pursuant to the request of and agreement with a certain customer, completed items are stored on behalf of this customer at the Company’s on-site secured facility, and in that instance, sales are recognized when all of the following have occurred: the customer has ordered the goods pursuant to a fixed price purchase order, the manufacturing process is complete, the goods have been transferred to the on-site secured facility and are ready for shipment, the risk of ownership has passed to the customer, the customer has been billed for the order and collection of the invoice is considered probable. At December 31, 2005 and 2004, accounts receivable from this customer totaled $1.5 million and $1.1 million, respectively. In certain cases the Company has agreed to maintain an inventory of products for a customer to ensure quick turn around of deliveries. The Company only accepts returns of product sold to customers when the product is determined to not be in conformance with the specifications previously agreed upon with such customers in accordance with the terms of its warranty policy and generally replaces the product. The Company generally provides replacement product for up to 180 days from original shipment as a warranty for defective product. Shipping and handling amounts billed to customers are included in sales and amounted to $0.9 million, $0.4 million and $0.4 million in 2005, 2004 and 2003, respectively.

We purchase certain key materials used in the manufacture of our products, and subcontract certain production functions or products from third parties some of which are sole suppliers. In some cases, we do not have supply contracts with our suppliers, and operate on a purchase order basis.

23

In the case of HoloMag, we have a single supplier, CFC International, Inc., with whom we have a supply contract. We may not be able to find alternative sources in a timely manner if our suppliers or subcontractors become unwilling or unable to supply us, or if they increase their prices. Our inability to obtain key product components or to have certain processes performed on our behalf could cause delays or reduce product shipments, which could cause our relationship with customers to suffer and materially and adversely affect our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.

During 2005, 2004 and 2003, export sales accounted for approximately 34%, 21% and 28%, respectively, of total sales. All of our export sales are presently denominated in U.S. dollars.

Sales may fluctuate from quarter to quarter due to changes in customers’ ordering patterns. Customers do not typically provide us with precise forecasts of future order quantities. Quarterly demand for our products may be materially influenced by customers’ promotions, inventory replenishment, card expiration patterns, delivery schedules and other factors, such as the VISA Decision, which may be difficult for us to anticipate.

Cost of goods sold includes raw materials such as nickel, foils, films and adhesives; labor costs; manufacturing overhead; and hologram origination costs (which represent costs of a unique master hologram that is made to customer specifications and is an integral part of the production process). Cost of goods sold also includes the cost of certain processes that the Company outsources to third parties. As a result, costs of goods sold are affected by product mix, manufacturing yields, supplier prices and changes in the cost of raw materials and labor.

Selling and administrative expenses primarily consist of salaries, benefits and commissions for the Company’s corporate, sales, customer service, marketing and administrative personnel, marketing and promotion expenses, legal and accounting expenses and expenses associated with being a public company. The Company also includes the cost of shipping and handling product deliveries that are billed to customers in selling and administrative expenses. These costs amounted to $1.0 million, $0.5 million and $0.4 million in 2005, 2004 and 2003, respectively.

Critical Accounting Policies

The preparation of our financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make use of estimates and assumptions that impact the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. On an ongoing basis, we evaluate our estimates, including those related to bad debts, inventories and intangible assets. These estimates and assumptions are based on historical results and trends as well as our forecasts as to how these might change in the future. In addition, these estimates and assumptions have been influenced by our current knowledge of the potential impact of the VISA Decision. Actual results may differ materially from these estimates.

We believe the following critical accounting policies, among others, impact the significant judgments and estimates we use in the preparation of our financial statements:

Revenue Recognition

The Company recognizes revenue in accordance with the provisions of the SEC’s Staff Accounting Bulletin (“SAB”) No. 104, “Revenue Recognition (an amendment of SAB 101, “Revenue Recognition in Financial Statements”).”  Specifically, sales and the related cost of goods sold are generally recognized at the latter of the time of shipment or when title passes to customers. In some situations, the Company has shipped product where the sale is contingent upon the customers’ use of the product. In these situations, the Company does not recognize sales upon product shipment, but rather when the buyer of the product

24

informs the Company that the product has been used. Additionally, pursuant to the request of and agreement with a certain customer, completed items are stored on behalf of the customer at the Company’s on-site secured facility and, in that instance, sales are recognized when all of the following have occurred: the customer has ordered the goods pursuant to a fixed price purchase order, the manufacturing process is complete, the goods have been transferred to the on-site secured facility and are ready for shipment, the risk of ownership has passed to the customer, the customer has been billed for the order and collection of the invoice is considered probable. The Company only accepts returns of product sold to customers when the product is determined to not be in conformance with the specifications previously agreed upon with such customers in accordance with the terms of its warranty policy and generally replaces the product.

Customer advances represent payments received from customers for products which have not yet been shipped. These customer advances are classified as current liabilities on the Company’s balance sheets.

Shipping and handling amounts billed to customers are included in sales. Shipping and handling costs are included in selling and administrative expenses.

Allowance for Doubtful Accounts

We maintain allowances for doubtful accounts for estimated losses resulting from the inability of our customers to make the required payments. We recognize an allowance for doubtful accounts based on the length of time the receivables are past due, the current business environment and our historical experience. If the financial condition of our customers were to deteriorate or if economic conditions were to worsen, additional allowances may be required in the future.

Inventory Valuation

Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or market with cost being determined on the first-in, first-out (FIFO) method. At each balance sheet date, we evaluate our ending inventory for excess quantities and obsolescence. We provide reserves for estimated obsolescence equal to the difference between the cost of the inventory and its estimated market value. We fully reserve for inventories deemed obsolete. If future demand or market conditions are less favorable than our projections, additional inventory write-downs may be required.

Impairment of Long-lived Assets

We account for long-lived assets in accordance with SFAS No. 144, Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets (“SFAS No. 144”). SFAS No. 144 requires that long-lived assets and certain identifiable intangibles be reviewed 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 expected 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.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In December 2004, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement No. 123(R) (FAS 123R), Share-Based Payment, revising FAS 123 and requiring that all share-based payments to employees be recognized in the financial statements. Generally, the approach to accounting for share-based payments in FAS 123R is similar to the approach described in FAS 123, however, pro forma footnote disclosure will no longer be an alternative to financial statement recognition. This statement, as amended, becomes

25

effective in the first annual period beginning after June 15, 2005. The Company has adopted the new statement effective January 1, 2006, using the modified-prospective transition method described in the statement. Under this method, the Company will be required to recognize compensation expense over the remaining vesting period for all awards that remain unvested as of January 1, 2006. As permitted by FAS 123, the Company currently accounts for share-based payments to employees using APB 25’s intrinsic value method and, as such, generally recognized no compensation cost for employee stock options. For an approximate impact on 2006 results refer to the pro-forma results shown in Note 1.,”Stock-based Compensation”, in the Financial Statements.

In November 2004, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Statement No. 151 (“FAS 151”), Inventory Costs, an amendment of ARB No. 43, Chapter 4. FAS 151 clarifies that abnormal amounts of idle facility expense, freight, handling costs and wasted materials should be recognized as current period charges. In addition, FAS 151 requires that allocation of fixed production overhead to inventory be based on the normal capacity of the production facilities. FAS 151 is effective for inventory costs incurred during fiscal years beginning after June 15, 2005. The Company currently believes that the adoption of FAS 151 will not have a material impact on its financial statements.

In March 2005, the FASB issued interpretation No. 47, Accounting for Conditional Asset Retirement Obligations, an interpretation of SFAS No. 143. This interpretation clarifies that the term of conditional asset retirement obligation refers to a legal obligation to perform an asset retirement activity in which the timing and/or method of settlement are conditional on a future event that may or may not be within the control of the entity. The obligation to perform the asset retirement activity is unconditional even though uncertainty exists about the timing and/or method of settlement. Accordingly, an entity is required to recognize a liability for the fair value of a conditional asset retirement obligation if the fair value of the liability can be reasonably estimated. The provisions of Interpretation 47 are effective for fiscal years ending after December 15, 2005. The adoption of this statement will not have an impact to the Company’s financial statement presentation since there have been no conditional asset retirement obligations.

In December 2004, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 154, Accounting Changes and Error Corrections, a replacement of APB Opinion No. 20 and SFAS No. 3. This statement changes the requirements for the accounting for and the reporting of a change in accounting principle. This statement requires retrospective application to prior period financial statements of changes in accounting principle, unless it is impracticable to determine either the period-specific effects of the cumulative effect of the change. Indirect effects of a change in accounting principle should be recognized in the period of the accounting change. The provisions of SFAS No. 154 are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2005. The Company has adopted this Statement beginning January 1, 2006.

Impact of the VISA Decision

As a result of the VISA Decision, the Company’s results of operations for the quarter and year ended December 31, 2005 have been materially affected. In the quarter ended December 31, 2005, as a result of the VISA Decision, we recorded a pre-tax charge amounting to approximately $5.0 million of which $4.8 million was recorded in cost of goods sold and was principally related to the value of our HoloMag inventory. Also included in the charge were increases in our provisions for accounts receivable and potential non-ESD related warranty claims. We will review the valuation of these accounts on an ongoing basis as a part of our closing process and make appropriate changes to our reserve levels based upon the facts at the time. Sales of HoloMag to VISA authorized transaction card manufacturers began in the quarter ended September 30, 2005 and amounted to $2.3 million in that quarter. In the quarter ended December 31, 2005 HoloMag sales to VISA authorized card manufacturers amounted to $3.8 million. Sales of VISA

26

HoloMag continued to grow in the first quarter of 2006 compared to the prior quarter until the announcement by VISA on March 15, 2006. Accordingly, sales in the quarter ending March 31, 2006 are expected to be higher than the level of the quarter ended December 31, 2005 and are expected to decline thereafter as a result of the VISA Decision.

Results of Operations

Comparison of the Year Ended December 31, 2005 to the Year Ended December 31, 2004

Sales. Sales increased by $11.0 million, or 52%, from $21.3 million in 2004 to $32.3 million in 2005. The increase was primarily due to the roll-out of the HoloMag program in the transaction card market. HoloMag sales accounted for approximately $8.4 million of the increase from 2004 to 2005 and included sales of approximately $6.1 million to manufacturers of VISA transaction cards which sales began in the second half of the year. HoloMag was also sold to manufacturers of American Express and Diners Club cards throughout the entire year and to MasterCard beginning in the fourth quarter. Sales growth was also affected by the value of the HoloMag product which sells for substantially higher prices than a conventional hot stamp hologram due to its unique design and high security features. We also created new product solutions in the identity document and product authentication markets and expanded existing customer relationships in each of our markets.

Royalty Income. Royalty income remained relatively unchanged.

Cost of Goods Sold, excluding Depreciation and Amortization. Cost of goods sold, excluding depreciation and amortization increased by $10.2 million, from $9.2 million in 2004 to $19.4 million in 2005 primarily as a result of the volume increase due to the ramp up of HoloMag in the second half of 2005 and increases in inventory and warranty reserves for HoloMag. As a percentage of sales, cost of goods sold excluding depreciation and amortization increased from 43.1% in 2004 to 60.0% in 2005. As a result of the VISA Decision, in the fourth quarter of 2005, we recorded a charge to cost of goods sold of $4.8 million to reserve the value of the HoloMag inventory and provide for additional, non-ESD related warranty claims for products sold in 2005.

Selling and Administrative Expenses.Selling and administrative expenses increased $1.8 million from $7.1 million in 2004 to $8.9 million in 2005. As a percentage of sales, selling and administrative expenses decreased from 33.3% in 2004 to 27.4% in 2005. The increase in expenses was primarily due to higher professional fees, salaries and wages in support of the growth of the business and the facility consolidation and shipping charges which increased due to higher product shipments as well as an increase in the allowance for doubtful accounts relating to the VISA Decision. The decrease in percentage of sales was primarily due to the volume increase in sales, partially offset by higher general and administrative costs.

Research and Development. Research and development expenses amounted to $1.3 million in both 2004 and 2005 as lower testing expenses in 2005 were partially offset by higher salaries and wages due to manpower additions and consulting costs in connection with the HoloMag program.

Depreciation and Amortization. Depreciation and amortization increased $0.5 million from $0.8 million in 2004 to $1.3 million in 2005. The increase was primarily due to the acceleration of depreciation on equipment and leasehold improvements from the Company’s abandoned facility in Elmsford, New York of $0.4 million and the increase in fixed assets in connection with the leasehold improvements and new equipment in the Company’s new facility in Robbinsville, New Jersey.

Facility Consolidation Expenses. Facility consolidation expenses of $2.8 million were recorded in 2005 as compared to $0.2 million recorded in 2004. All amounts recorded in facilities consolidation expenses pertain to expenses incurred for the Company’s move and consolidation into its new facility in

27

Robbinsville, New Jersey and in 2005 consist primarily of future amounts of rent due on the abandoned facility in Elmsford, New York, moving costs for equipment and inventory and employee severance costs, while expenses incurred in 2004 consist primarily of legal fees, real estate commissions and employee relocation and severance expenses.

Interest Income. Interest income increased $0.2 million from $0.1 million in 2004 to $0.3 million in 2005 primarily as a result of higher interest rates in effect during 2005.

Other Income. Other income decreased $0.2 million from $0.2 million in 2004 to $0 million in 2005. The decrease was primarily due to income from a patent settlement agreement with a competitor in 2004 which did not recur in 2005.

Income Taxes. The Company recorded a benefit from income taxes of $.4 million in 2005 as a result of the pre-tax loss as compared to income tax expense of $1.3 million in 2004.

Comparison of the Year Ended December 31, 2004 to the Year Ended December 31, 2003

Sales. Sales increased by $3.0 million, or 16.3%, from $18.3 million in 2003 to $21.3 million in 2004. The increase was due to an increase in sales of holograms for transaction cards to existing customers of $3.0 million, the creation of new programs for transaction cards for $0.9 million in 2004, and the creation of new programs for identification products for $0.4 million in 2004, which was partially offset by sales of $1.3 million of identification products in 2003 that did not recur in 2004. In addition, we commenced new programs in pharmaceutical product protection which offset a continued reduction in lower margin label sales.

Royalty Income. Royalty income remained relatively unchanged.

Cost of Goods Sold, excluding depreciation and amortization. Cost of goods sold, excluding depreciation and amortization increased by $0.9 million, or 10.7%, from $8.3 million in 2003 to $9.2 million in 2004. As a percentage of sales, cost of goods sold, excluding depreciation and amortization decreased from 45.3% in 2003 to 43.1% in 2004. The decrease in cost of goods sold, excluding depreciation and amortization as a percentage of sales of 2% was primarily due to greater sales volumes of higher margin products in the current period.

Selling and Administrative Expenses. Selling and administrative expenses increased by $0.6 million, from $6.5 million in 2003 to $7.1 million in 2004. As a percentage of sales, selling and administrative expenses decreased from 35.6% in 2003 to 33.3% in 2004. The increase in selling and administrative expenses is primarily due to an increase in sales salaries of $0.1 million, an increase in other selling expenses of $0.1 million primarily due to higher trade show, travel and sample expenses, an increase in administrative salaries and benefits of $0.3 million and an increase in other administrative expenses of $0.1 million primarily related to higher professional fees and recruitment expenses.

Research and Development. Research and development expenses increased $0.1 million from $1.2 million in 2003 to $1.3 million in 2004. The increase was primarily due to the development and testing of new products.

Depreciation and Amortization. Depreciation and amortization expense increased $0.1 million from $0.7 million in 2003 to $0.8 million in 2004 primarily due to new assets in 2004.

Facility Consolidation Expenses. Facility consolidation expenses of $0.2 million pertain to expenses

28

incurred for our new facility in Robbinsville, New Jersey and consist primarily of legal fees, real estate commissions and employee relocation and severance expenses.

Other Income. Other income increased $0.2 million from $0.1 million in 2003 to $0.3 million in 2004. The increase was primarily due to income from a patent settlement agreement with a competitor in 2004.

Income Taxes. Income tax expense increased $0.5 million from $0.7 million in 2003 to $1.2 million in 2004. The increase was primarily due to an increase in taxable income in 2004.

Seasonality

Our sales have not generally exhibited substantial seasonality. However, our sales and operating results to date have, and future sales and therefore operating results may, continue to fluctuate from quarter to quarter. The degree of fluctuation will depend on a number of factors, including the timing and level of sales, and any change in the pricing of our products and the mix of products sold. Because a significant portion of our business is expected to be derived from orders placed by a limited number of large customers, variations in the timing of such orders could cause significant fluctuations in our operating results. Customers do not typically provide us with precise forecasts of future order quantities. Quarterly demand for our products may be materially influenced by customers’ promotions, inventory replenishment, transaction card expiration patterns, delivery schedules and other factors which may be difficult for us to anticipate. Other factors that may result in fluctuations in operating results include the impact of the VISA Decision, the timing of new product announcements and the introduction of new products and new technologies by us or our competitors, delays in research and development of new products, increased research and development expenses, availability and cost of materials from our suppliers, and competitive pricing pressures.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

At December 31, 2005, we had $9.1 million of cash and cash equivalents and working capital of $13.6 million.

The Company’s operating activities provided cash of $0.3 million in 2005, compared to $3.4 million of cash provided in 2004. The decrease was primarily due to an increase in accounts receivable and inventories in connection with the increase in sales partially offset by an increase in accounts payable due to the growth of the business. Investing activities in 2005 used cash of $3.1 million including $5.1 million as a result of capital expenditures, primarily associated with leasehold improvements and new equipment in the new facility partially offset by sales of short-term investments of $2.0 million. Financing activities in 2005 provided cash of $0.6 million due to the exercise of stock options. Financing activities in 2004 provided cash of $0.1 million due to the exercise of options.

On December 14, 2004, the Company entered into agreements to lease a 134,000 square foot modern manufacturing and office building in Robbinsville, New Jersey, which is the site of its primary operations following the closure, relocation and consolidation of its operations in Elmsford, New York and Huntingdon Valley, Pennsylvania into the Robbinsville site. The Company completed the relocation and consolidation of its operations during 2005. The Robbinsville facility provides substantial room for expansion as the Company consolidated its operations that were being conducted within a 58,000 square foot facility in Elmsford, New York and a 30,000 square foot facility in Huntingdon Valley, Pennsylvania into the new facility. We are currently evaluating the possible use of the Huntingdon Valley facility for certain manufacturing and secure storage. The Company has also acquired and installed additional

29

equipment and technology in the new facility to broaden its capabilities to serve its target customers, expand capacity, become more vertically integrated and improve efficiency.

The base rent on the lease for the Robbinsville, New Jersey facility is $555,000 per year, increasing by 1.9% per year, and the first seven months of the lease were rent-free. We recorded deferred rent of $0.4 million in 2004 and 2005. The term of the lease for the Robbinsville facility extends through May 31, 2017, and at the expiration of the term, we have options to renew the lease for three consecutive five year periods at the then fair market value and also have an option to purchase the building after the end of the original lease term for the adjusted fair market value as defined in the lease agreement. The base rent on the lease in Huntingdon Valley, Pennsylvania is $144,000 per year. The lease on this facility expires on June 30, 2007. The base rent on the lease in Elmsford, New York is $746,000 per year. The lease on this facility expires on December 31, 2007. As this facility was abandoned as part of our move and consolidation in 2005 the remaining rent, net of estimated sublease income, through the end of the lease term has been charged to Facility Consolidation Expense in 2005.

We invested approximately $6.0 million through 2005 in capital additions at the Robbinsville, New Jersey facility in conjunction with the consolidation of our operations, of which approximately $5.1 million was expended in 2005 and $.9 million was expended in 2004. These expenditures were for facility upgrades to customize the Robbinsville, New Jersey facility for the Company’s operational and security requirements as well as the acquisition of new equipment to upgrade and expand our production capabilities.

We believe that cash flows from operations and cash balances will be sufficient to meet working capital needs and fund capital expenditures for the foreseeable future after considering the potential impact of the VISA Decision.

The following table illustrates the costs incurred in the relocation and consolidation of facilities through December 31, 2005 and anticipated in 2006 and 2007.

Impact of Inflation

In recent years, inflation has not had a significant impact on our historical operations. There can be no assurance that inflation will not adversely affect our operations in the future, particularly in emerging markets where inflationary conditions tend to be more prevalent.

Item 9. CHANGES IN AND DISAGREEMENTS WITH ACCOUNTANTS ON ACCOUNTING AND FINANCIAL DISCLOSURE.

On April 27, 2005, Ernst & Young LLP (“Ernst & Young”) notified us that it would be resigning as our independent auditors upon completion of their SAS No. 100 review for the quarter ended March 31, 2005. Ernst & Young subsequently completed its SAS No. 100 review and by letter dated May 17, 2005 confirmed its resignation. Ernst & Young advised the Company that it was resigning because of Ernst & Young’s resource constraints, and that its resignation was not related to any matter concerning the Company including the Company’s selection or application of accounting policies or judgments, the scope of audit, internal controls or integrity of management.

Ernst & Young audited our financial statements for our two most recent fiscal years ended December 31, 2004.

During our two most recent fiscal years ended December 31, 2004 and for the period from January 1, 2005 through the date of resignation, there were no disagreements with Ernst & Young on any matters of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure, or auditing scope or procedure, which disagreements, if not resolved to the satisfaction of Ernst & Young would have caused them to make reference to the subject matter of their disagreement in their report.

During our two most recent fiscal years ended December 31, 2004 and for the period from January 1, 2005 through the date of resignation, there were no reportable events as such term is defined by paragraph (a)(1)(iv) of Item 304 of Regulation S-K promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission.

The report of Ernst & Young accompanying the audit for our two most recent fiscal years ended December 31, 2004 did not contain any adverse opinion or disclaimer or opinion, nor was it qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope or accounting principles.

The Company provided Ernst & Young with a copy of the above disclosures on May 18, 2005, and requested that Ernst & Young furnish a letter addressed to the Securities and Exchange Commission stating whether it agrees with the statements made by the Company and, if not, stating the respects in which it does not agree. A copy of such letter is attached as exhibit 16.1 to the Form 8-K filed by the Company on May 20, 2005.

On, August 1, 2005 we engaged PricewaterhouseCoopers, LLP as our independent registered public accounting firm for 2005. During our fiscal years ended December 31, 2004 and 2003, and through August 1, 2005, neither we, nor anyone acting on our behalf, consulted with PricewaterhouseCoopers, LLP with respect to the application of accounting principles to a specified transaction, either completed or proposed, or the type of audit opinion that might be rendered on our financial statements, or any other matters or events set forth in Item 304(a)(2)(i) and (ii) of Regulation S-K.

Item 9A. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

We carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of management, including our chief executive officer and chief financial officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this report pursuant to Exchange Act Rule 13a-15. Based on this evaluation, our chief executive officer and chief financial officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective in timely alerting them to material information relating to ABNH required to be included in our periodic Securities and Exchange Commission filings. There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during our most recent fiscal quarter that would have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Item 9B. OTHER INFORMATION

None.

Audit Committee

The members of the Audit Committee are currently Jordan S. Davis (Chairman) and Fred J. Levin. The Audit Committee recommends to the Board of Directors the appointment of our independent auditors. The Audit Committee also discusses and reviews, with our independent auditors, the scope and results of the annual audit. All of the members of our Audit Committee are independent within the meaning of Section 7(d)(3)(iv) of Schedule 14A applying the definition of independence set forth in Rule 4200(a)(15) of the National Association of Securities Dealers’ listing standards. Our Board of Directors has determined that there is no audit committee financial expert as defined by Item 401(h) of Regulation S-K of the Exchange Act. Mark J. Bonney served as our audit committee financial expert until June 9, 2005 at which time he resigned from our Board of Directors and became our Chief Financial Officer. Our Board of Directors believes that the current members of our Audit Committee are qualified to serve based on their collective experience and background.

The Audit Committee’s amended and restated charter provides that the Audit Committee shall be comprised of no more than five and no less than three members. Our Audit Committee is currently comprised of only two members. We are currently searching for a qualified candidate and financial expert to serve on our Audit Committee as its third member.

Based upon a review of the copies of the filings with the Securities and Exchange

35

Commission and written representations from our executive officers, directors and persons who beneficially own more than 10% of our common stock, we believe that the Section 16(a) filing requirements applicable to our executive officers, directors and persons who beneficially own more than 10% of our common stock in fiscal 2005 were complied with on a timely basis.

(1)Options vest over three years with 33.3% vesting on the first anniversary of the grant date and the remaining 66.7% vesting at the rate of 8.34% on the last day of each of the following eight quarters. Exceptions include:

(a)  Vest in full on January 7, 2006

(b) Fully vested at date of grant.

(2)Based on options to purchase 411,166 shares granted in 2005 under the 1998, 2000 and 2005 Stock Incentive Plans.

(3)These amounts represent assumed rates of appreciation in the price of the Company’s common stock during the terms of the options in accordance with rates specified in applicable federal securities regulations. Actual gains, if any, on stock option exercises will depend on the future price of the common stock and overall stock market conditions. The 5% rate of appreciation over the term of the $2.95, $3.80, $5.65 and the $6.45 stock prices on the dates of the respective grants would result in a stock price of $4.81, $6.19, $9.20 and $10.51, respectively. The 10% rate of appreciation over the term of the $2.95, $3.80, $5.65 and the $6.45 stock price on the date of the respective grants would result in a stock price of $7.65, $9.86, $14.65 and $16.73, respectively. There is no representation that the rates of appreciation reflected in this table will be achieved.

Director Compensation

Each member of the board of directors who is not an employee of ABNH will receive compensation of $12,000 per year for serving on the board of directors. Each of these directors will also receive $1,000 for each board meeting attended in person, $500 for each telephonic board meeting attended and $500 for each committee meeting attended. We also will reimburse directors for any expenses incurred in attending meetings of the board of directors and the committees thereof. Upon their initial election to the board of directors, each non-employee board member is granted options to purchase 25,000 shares of our common stock. Such options are exercisable at the fair market value of the common stock at the date of grant. These options become vested and exercisable for up to 20% of the total option shares upon the first anniversary of the grant of the options and for an additional 20% of the total option shares upon each succeeding anniversary until the option is fully exercisable at the end of the fifth year. In addition, directors may, from time to time, receive additional grants of options to purchase shares of our common stock as determined by our board of directors.

On January 7, 2005 the board of directors adopted a policy to increase the compensation paid to directors who are not employees of ABNH. Under the new policy, in addition to the compensation described above, each director who is not an employee of ABNH will automatically receive an option to purchase 5,000 shares of our common stock at the first meeting of the board of directors of each calendar year.

exercisable over a period of three years. In addition, the chairman of each committee of the Board of Directors will receive an additional annual fee of $6,000.

The Compensation Committee reviews the compensation arrangements for our Chief Executive Officer at least annually, typically in the fourth and/or first quarter of the fiscal year. In March 2005, we entered into an Amended and Restated Employment Agreement with Mr. Traub, which is described above. In determining whether to enter into the Amended and Restated Employment Agreement with Mr. Traub, and the compensation arrangements thereunder, the Compensation Committee considered the terms of his original employment agreement, as amended, his leadership of the Company, our financial and operational performance during the preceding year, competitive pay practices, and Mr. Traub’s individual performance and contributions to us. The Compensation Committee believes that Mr. Traub provides strong leadership to us and has been instrumental in improving our financial, operating and strategic position.

In making its compensation decisions with respect to Mr. Traub for 2005, the Compensation Committee exercised its discretion and judgment based on the above factors, relying both on qualitative and quantitative criteria and results. The Compensation Committee, together with Mr. Traub, established both quantifiable and qualitative objectives at the beginning of 2005 and weighted each of these objectives according to their importance to 2005 and future years. As part of its review of executive compensation, the Compensation Committee periodically reviews data on CEO compensation provided by independent compensation consultants. In fiscal 2005, Mr. Traub’s salary was $400,000. The Amended and Restated Employment Agreement with Mr. Traub provides for a target annual bonus of $100,000, and further provides that the actual bonus may be more or less than the target based on the Compensation Committee's reasonable assessment of the Executive's performance against the agreed upon objectives. Mr. Traub was paid a total year-end discretionary bonus of $225,000 based on the Compensation Committee’s evaluation of his and the Company’s performance for the year as compared to the objectives set at the beginning of the year.

ABNH’S General Compensation Policy for Executive Officers

The fundamental policy of the Compensation Committee is to provide our executive officers with competitive compensation packages that are designed to retain key personnel, motivate executives to advance our objectives and reward contributions to our operational and financial performance. It is the Compensation Committee’s objective to have a portion of each executive officer’s compensation contingent upon our performance as well as upon each executive officer’s own level of performance. Therefore, the compensation package for each executive officer is comprised of three different elements: (1) base salary which is designed primarily to be competitive with salary levels in the industry; (2) cash bonuses which reflect the achievement of qualitative and quantitative objectives and goals which are established at the beginning of each year; and (3) long-term stock-based incentive awards which strengthen the mutuality of interest between the executive officers and our stockholders.

Factors. The principal factors (together with the factors specified above with respect to Mr. Traub) that the Compensation Committee considered with respect to each executive officer’s compensation for fiscal 2005 are summarized below. The Compensation Committee may, however, in its discretion, apply entirely different factors for executive compensation in future years.

Base Salary. The base salary for each executive officer is specified in his respective employment agreement and was determined on the basis of the following factors: experience, expected personal performance, the salary levels in effect for comparable positions within and outside the industry and internal and external base salary comparability considerations. The weight given to each of these factors differed from individual to individual, as the Compensation Committee and the board of directors

41

believed appropriate.

Bonus. Bonus represents the variable component of the executive compensation program that is tied to our performance and individual achievement. In determining bonuses, the Compensation Committee considers factors such as relative performance of ABNH during the year and the individual’s contribution to our performance, the need to attract, retain and motivate high quality executives as well as the degree to which the executive officer met or exceeded certain objectives established for him.

Long-Term Incentive Compensation. Long-term incentives are provided through grants of stock options and restricted shares. The grants are designed to align the interests of each executive officer with those of the stockholders and provide each individual with a significant incentive to manage ABNH from the perspective of an owner with an equity stake. Each stock option grant allows the individual to acquire shares of our common stock at a fixed price per share over a specified period of time up to ten years. Each option generally becomes exercisable in installments over a three or four-year period. Restricted shares are immediately issued and outstanding with full voting rights as of the grant date but may not be sold or otherwise transferred by the executive until the restriction lapses three years from the grant date, Therefore, the option or restricted share grant will provide a return to the executive officer only if the executive officer remains employed by ABNH during the vesting period of the options or restriction period of the restricted shares. Additionally, stock options will only provide a return to the executive if the market price of the underlying shares appreciates. The number of shares subject to each option grant is set at a level intended to create meaningful opportunity for appreciation based on the executive officer’s current position with ABNH, the size of comparable awards made to individuals in similar positions and the individual’s personal performance in recent periods. The Compensation Committee also considers the number of unvested stock options held by the executive officer in order to maintain an appropriate level of equity incentive for that individual. However, the Compensation Committee does not adhere to any specific guidelines as to the relative option or restricted stock holdings of our executive officers.

Internal Revenue Code Limits on the Deductibility of Compensation

Section 162(m) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, generally denies publicly-held corporations a federal income tax deduction for compensation exceeding $1,000,000 paid to the Chief Executive Officer or any of the four other highest paid executive officers, excluding performance-based compensation. Through December 31, 2005, this provision has not limited our ability to deduct executive compensation, but the Compensation Committee will continue to monitor the potential impact of Section 162(m) on our ability to deduct executive compensation. We believe that our compensation philosophy of paying our executive officers with competitive salaries, cash bonuses and long-term incentives, as described in this report, serves the best interest of ABNH and its stockholders.

Material Terms of the 1998 Stock Incentive Plan

On July 20, 1998, we adopted the 1998 Stock Incentive Plan (as amended, the “1998 Plan”). The 1998 Plan was adopted for the purpose of granting various stock incentives to officers, directors, employees and consultants of ABNH. The board of directors (or a committee appointed by the board of directors) has discretionary authority, subject to certain restrictions, to administer the 1998 Plan. The total number of shares reserved for issuance under the 1998 Plan are 1,863,000 shares of common stock.

Options granted under the 1998 Plan generally become vested and exercisable for up to either 25% or 33 1/3% of the total optioned shares upon each succeeding anniversary of the date of grant. Generally, the unexercised portion of any option automatically terminates upon the termination of the optionee’s employment with us, unless otherwise determined by the board of directors; provided however, that any extension shall not extend beyond the expiration of the option, generally ten years. Upon a change in control, outstanding options will generally become fully vested.

In August 2001, our stockholders approved an amendment to the 2000 Plan increasing the shares available for issuance thereunder by 600,000 to 1,350,000 shares. The 2000 Plan was adopted for the purpose of granting various stock incentives to officers, directors, employees and consultants of ABNH.

On August 8, 2005, we adopted the American Bank Note Holographics, Inc. 2005 Stock Incentive Plan (the “2005 Plan”), which was subsequently approved by our stockholders at our annual meeting on September 22, 2005.

Item 13. CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS.

On June 30, 2000, we entered into a Stock Purchase Agreement (the “Agreement”) with Crane & Co., Inc. (“Crane”). Under the Agreement, we sold 3,387,720 shares of our common stock to Crane for an aggregate purchase price of $9,316,230. The Agreement also provides that our Board of Directors and our audit committee of our Board of Directors each be expanded by one position, which was filled by Douglas A. Crane, a representative of Crane. The Agreement also provides that, for as long as Crane owns at least 51% of the shares of common stock purchased under the Agreement, Crane shall be entitled to designate one director on the management slate of nominees to our Board, and that, should our Board be expanded to a number greater than six, then our Board shall be expanded by another seat, and Crane shall be entitled to nominate an additional director.

The Agreement also contains a standstill provision, whereby Crane agreed, that, among other things, neither it nor its affiliates, except as otherwise provided for in the Agreement, will acquire more than its current proportionate share of our outstanding securities. The standstill provision also provides that Crane will not offer, sell or transfer any of its voting securities of ABNH during a tender or exchange offer if

46

such offer is opposed by our board of directors. In connection with the transaction, Crane also received the right to cause us to register Crane’s shares for public resale and the right to include such shares in any future registration of our securities, subject to certain exceptions. On November 30, 2005 we were informed by Crane & Co., Inc. of their intention to sell a portion or all of their shares in an orderly manner to institutional buyers. On November 29, 2005, Douglas Crane resigned from the Company’s Board of Directors and Crane has not appointed a replacement.

During 2000, we entered into agreements with Crane under which we rent factory space and lease employees for our facility in Dalton, MA. For the years ended December 31, 2005, 2004 and 2003, we paid Crane under these agreements $72,000 each year, for the rental of the factory space and $153,000, $169,000 and $162,000, respectively, for the leased employees.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

YEARS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2005, 2004 AND 2003

1.BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

American Bank Note Holographics, Inc. (the “Company” or “ABNH”) was incorporated in the state of Delaware in August 1985. The Company was, until July 20, 1998, a wholly-owned subsidiary of American Banknote Corporation (the “Former Parent” or “ABN”).

ABNH originates, produces, markets and sells holograms and products incorporating holograms. The Company’s products are used primarily in security applications including authentication of transaction cards, identity documents, value documents and various consumer products. The Company operates in one reportable industry segment.

Use of Estimates — The preparation of financial statements, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles, requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of sales and expenses during the reporting period. On an ongoing basis, we evaluate our estimates, including those related to bad debts, inventories and intangible assets. These estimates and assumptions are based on historical results and trends as well as our forecasts as to how these might change in the future. In addition, theses estimates and assumptions have been influenced by our current knowledge of the impact of the VISA Decision. (see Note 11. Subsequent Event). Actual results may differ materially from our estimates.

Cash and Cash Equivalents — All highly liquid investments (primarily government bonds) with a maturity of three months or less, when purchased, are considered to be cash equivalents and are stated at cost, which approximates market.

Short-Term Investments – Short-term investments consists of a government bond which matured February 22, 2005. In accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standard (“SFAS”) No. 115, “Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt and Equity Securities,” management determines the appropriate classification of marketable securities at the time of purchase and reevaluates such designations as of each balance sheet date. This investment was classified as held to maturity and carried at its amortized cost until its maturity date.

Concentrations of Credit Risk — A significant portion of the Company’s accounts receivable are due from credit card issuers and related credit card manufacturers located throughout the United States and Europe. At December 31, 2005 two customers each accounted for 22% of the Company’s accounts receivable and 30% and 11%, respectively of its sales for the year then ended. At December 31, 2004 each of three customers accounted for 28%, 19% and 11%, respectively, of the Company’s accounts receivable and 35%, 9% and 6%, respectively, of its sales for the year then ended. The Company establishes its credit policies based on an ongoing evaluation of its customers’ creditworthiness and competitive market conditions and does not require collateral.

Inventories — Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or market with cost being determined on the first-in, first-out (FIFO) method.

Revenue Recognition — The Company recognizes revenue in accordance with the provisions of the SEC’s Staff Accounting Bulletin (“SAB”) No. 104, “Revenue Recognition (an amendment of SAB 101, “Revenue Recognition in Financial Statements”).”  Specifically, sales and the related cost of goods sold are generally recognized at the latter of the time of shipment or when title passes to customers. In some

F-8

situations, the Company has shipped product where the sale is contingent upon the customers’ use of the product. In these situations, the Company does not recognize sales upon product shipment, but rather when the buyer of the product informs the Company that the product has been used. Additionally, pursuant to the request of and agreement with a certain customer, completed items are stored on behalf of the customer at the Company’s on-site secured facility and, in that instance, sales are recognized when all of the following have occurred: the customer has ordered the goods pursuant to a fixed price purchase order, the manufacturing process is complete, the goods have been transferred to the on-site secured facility and are ready for shipment, the risk of ownership has passed to the customer, the customer has been billed for the order and collection of the invoice is considered probable. The Company only accepts returns of product sold to customers when the product is determined to not be in conformance with the specifications previously agreed upon with such customers in accordance with the terms of its warranty policy and generally replaces the product.

Shipping and handling amounts billed to customers are included in revenues and amounted to $867,000, $433,000 and $358,000 for the years ended December 31, 2005, 2004 and 2003, respectively. Shipping and handling costs are included in selling and administrative expenses.

Royalty Income — The Company enters into licensing agreements with certain manufacturers under which the Company receives royalty payments. Royalty payments due under licensing agreements are recognized as income either based upon shipment reports from licensees, where available, or estimated shipments by such licensees.

Depreciation and Amortization – Machinery and equipment are recorded at cost and are depreciated using the straight-line method over the estimated useful life of the asset. Estimated useful lives are generally as follows: Machinery and production equipment - 5 to 15 years; Furniture and fixtures – 5 to 7 years and  Computer equipment - 3 to 5 years. Amortization of leasehold improvements is computed using the straight-line method based upon the remaining term of the applicable lease, or the estimated useful life of the asset, whichever is shorter, currently 13 years.

Long-Lived Assets — Long-lived assets used in operations are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the assets might not be recoverable. For long-lived assets to be held and used, the Company recognizes an impairment loss only if its carrying amount is not recoverable through its undiscounted cash flows and measures the impairment loss based on the difference between the carrying amount and fair value.

Warranty Costs — The Company provides for warranty costs in amounts it estimates will be needed to cover future warranty obligations for products sold. Estimates of warranty costs are based on historical experience and are periodically reviewed and adjusted, when necessary. The Company’s product warranty provision is included in accrued expenses in the accompanying balance sheets. Changes in the Company’s warranty provision during the years ended December 31, 2005, 2004 and 2003 are displayed in the following table. The significant change in warranties provided in 2005 is principally due to increased volume in the quarter ended December 31, 2005 and an additional provision recorded in the quarter ended December 31, 2005 for potential non-ESD related warranty claims as a result of the VISA Decision.

F-9

Research and Development — Research and development costs are expensed as incurred.

Income Taxes — The Company accounts for income taxes in accordance with SFAS No. 109, “Accounting for Income Taxes.” The provision for income taxes includes deferred income taxes resulting from items reported in different periods for income tax and financial statement purposes. Deferred tax assets and liabilities represent the expected future tax consequences of the differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax basis.

Stock-Based Compensation – The Company accounts for stock options granted to employees and directors using the intrinsic value method in accordance with APB Opinion No. 25, “Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees”, and its related interpretations. The Company adopted the disclosure requirements of SFAS No. 123, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation”, and accordingly the Company does not recognize compensation expense for stock option grants made at an exercise price equal to or in excess of the fair market value of the stock at the date of grant.

Had compensation cost for the Company’s outstanding stock options been determined based on the fair value at the grant dates for options consistent with SFAS No. 123, the Company’s net (loss) income and basic and diluted net (loss) income per share would have differed as reflected by the pro forma amounts, calculated using the Black-Scholes model to estimate the fair value of the options at grant date, indicated below:

	((In Thousands, Except Per Share Data)
Net (loss) income, as reported	$	(581	)	$	1,801	$	1,007

Pro forma, net (loss) income	$	(789	)	$	1,724	$	926
Basic and diluted net (loss)income per share, as reported	$	(0.03	)	$	0.10	$	0.05
Basic and diluted net (loss)income per share, pro forma	$	(0.04	)	$	0.09	$	0.05

Basic and Diluted Net (Loss) Income per Share — Basic net (loss) income per share is computed based on the weighted average number of outstanding shares of common stock. The basic weighted average number of shares outstanding were 18,593,000 for the year ended December 31, 2005, 18,489,000 for the year ended December 31, 2004 and 18,484,000 for the year ended December 31, 2003. Diluted net income (loss) per share is computed by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding and dilutive potential shares of common stock. As the Company was in a loss position for the year ended December 31, 2005 dilutive stock options were excluded from the calculation of dilutive earnings per share as the shares would have had an anti-dilutive effect. For the year ended December 31, 2004 the diluted number of weighted shares outstanding was 18,907,000 which included dilutive stock options of 418,000. For the year ended December 31, 2003, the diluted weighted average number of shares outstanding was 18,526,000 which included dilutive stock options of 42,000.

Business Concentration Risks — A significant portion of the Company’s business is derived from orders placed by certain transaction card companies and manufacturers of transaction cards, and variations in the timing of such orders can cause significant fluctuations in the Company’s sales. Sales to transaction card companies and manufacturers of transaction cards accounted for approximately 86% of our total sales in 2005 and 84% of our total sales in 2004. The traditional hot stamp patch hologram on many transaction

F-10

cards is being phased out by some of our major customers and is being replaced by an integrated holographic magnetic stripe. We previously reported that we had learned of a small number of incidents in which certain card terminals had been affected by electro-static discharge (“ESD”) from static electricity carried on cards incorporating the current version of HoloMag. We have been advised by customers that there is a need to develop a second generation holographic magnetic tape product that addresses ESD and we have commenced such development. There can be no assurance that we will be successful in developing such a product that will be acceptable to our customers. Further there can be no assurance that a competitor of ours will not develop an acceptable product that is adopted by our customers.

Sales to MasterCard for the years ended December 31, 2005, 2004 and 2003 were approximately 31%, 35%, and 33%, respectively. At December 31, 2005 and 2004, accounts receivable from MasterCard approximated $1.5 million and $1.1 million, respectively. We entered into an agreement with MasterCard dated February 28, 2003, which replaced the agreement dated February 1, 1996, as amended. We entered into an amendment to this agreement on September 29, 2003, in which MasterCard retained us to produce a new hologram for the Debit MasterCard and extended the agreement to February 2011, subject to automatic renewal if not terminated by either party. This agreement provided for MasterCard to receive three sequential price reductions of approximately 3% each, effective at the beginning of 2003, 2004 and 2006. We entered into an additional amendment to the agreement with MasterCard on August 24, 2005 in which MasterCard named the Company as its supplier of holographic magnetic stripes (“HoloMag™”) and extended the agreement through February 28, 2013, subject to automatic renewal. The Company is the exclusive supplier of holograms and holographic magnetic stripes to MasterCard.

Sales of VISA holograms (which includes HoloMag starting in the three month period ended September 30, 2005) to manufacturers of VISA transaction cards were approximately 37%, 31% and 30% of sales for the years ended December 31, 2005, 2004 and 2003, respectively. Currently we are one of two companies authorized to manufacture and sell the VISA Dove hot stamp holograms to manufacturers of VISA brand transaction cards. On March 15, 2005, VISA announced its intention to phase out the Dove hot stamp hologram that we supply for the front of the VISA card, and to replace it with an integrated holographic magnetic stripe. On April 8, 2005, we entered into an Agreement with VISA, pursuant to which we were authorized to supply HoloMag to VISA-approved card manufacturers. We previously reported that we had learned of a small number of incidents in which certain card terminals had been affected by electro-static discharge (“ESD”) from static electricity carried on cards incorporating HoloMag. On March 14, 2006, we were informed by VISA that, as a result of the ESD issue, VISA is informing its member financial institutions and authorized card manufacturers that (i) VISA will no longer approve VISA card designs which incorporate the current version of HoloMag, (ii) VISA strongly recommends that their members attempt to avoid further issuance of cards incorporating the current version of HoloMag and (iii) VISA recommends that their members follow an alternate card design incorporating a conventional magnetic stripe and Dove hologram and VISA provided notice to us that it was revoking our right to produce HoloMag under its agreement (the “VISA Decision”). We are continuing to evaluate VISA’s actions and claims and have submitted an initial response to VISA. In the quarter ended December 31, 2005, as a result of the VISA Decision, we recorded a pre-tax charge amounting to approximately $5.0 million of which $4.8 million was recorded in cost of goods sold and was principally related to the value of our HoloMag inventory. Also included in the charge were increases in our provisions for accounts receivable and potential non-ESD related warranty claims. We will review the valuation of these accounts on an ongoing basis as part of our closing process and make appropriate changes to our reserve levels based upon the facts at the time.

F-11

We purchase certain key materials used in the manufacture of our products, and subcontract certain production functions or products from third parties some of which are sole suppliers. In some cases, we do not have supply contracts with our suppliers, and operate on a purchase order basis. In the case of HoloMag, we have a single supplier, CFC International, Inc., with whom we have a supply contract. We may not be able to find alternative sources in a timely manner if our suppliers or subcontractors become unwilling or unable to supply us, or if they increase their prices. Our inability to obtain key products or product components or to have certain processes performed on our behalf could cause delays or reduce product shipments, which could cause our relationship with customers to suffer and materially and adversely affect our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.

Export Sales — During 2005, 2004 and 2003, export sales accounted for approximately 34%, 21% and 28%, respectively, of total sales. All of our export sales are presently denominated in U.S. dollars. At December 31, 2005 and 2004, accounts receivable from these customers approximated $2.0 and $.5 million, respectively.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments – The Company’s financial instruments consist of cash and cash equivalents, short-term investments, accounts receivables, accounts payable and accrued expenses. The carrying amounts reported in the balance sheets approximate their fair value at both December 31, 2005 and 2004.

Comprehensive Income – Comprehensive income is equal to net income in all periods.

Reclassifications – Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform with the current year’s presentation.

Impact of Recently Issued Accounting Standards — In December 2004, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement No. 123(R) (FAS 123R), Share-Based Payment, revising FAS 123 and requiring that all share-based payments to employees be recognized in the financial statements. Generally, the approach to accounting for share-based payments in FAS 123R is similar to the approach described in FAS 123, however, pro forma footnote disclosure will no longer be an alternative to financial statement recognition. This statement, as amended, becomes effective in the first annual period beginning after June 15, 2005. The Company has adopted the new statement effective January 1, 2006, using the modified-prospective transition method described in the statement. Under this method, the Company will be required to recognize compensation expense over the remaining vesting period for all awards that remain unvested as of January 1, 2006. As permitted by FAS 123, the Company currently accounts for share-based payments to employees using APB 25’s intrinsic value method and, as such, generally recognized no compensation cost for employee stock options. For an approximate impact on 2006 results refer to the pro-forma results shown above in Note 1. “Stock-based Compensation”.

In November 2004, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement No. 151 (FAS 151), Inventory Costs, an amendment of ARB No. 43, Chapter 4. FAS 151 clarifies that abnormal amounts of idle facility expense, freight, handling costs and wasted materials should be recognized as current period charges. In addition, FAS 151 requires that allocation of fixed production overhead to inventory be based on the normal capacity of the production facilities. FAS 151 is effective for inventory costs incurred during fiscal years beginning after June 15, 2005. The Company currently believes that the adoption of FAS 151 will not have a material impact on its financial statements.

In March 2005, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued interpretation No. 47, Accounting for Conditional Asset Retirement Obligations, an interpretation of SFAS No. 143. This interpretation clarifies that the term of conditional asset retirement obligation refers to a legal obligation

F-12

to perform an asset retirement activity in which the timing and/or method of settlement are conditional on a future event that may or may not be within the control of the entity. The obligation to perform the asset retirement activity is unconditional even though uncertainty exists about the timing and/or method of settlement. Accordingly, an entity is required to recognize a liability for the fair value of a conditional asset retirement obligation if the fair value of the liability can be reasonably estimated. The provisions of Interpretation 47 are effective for fiscal years ending after December 15, 2005. The adoption of this statement will not have an impact to the Company’s financial statement presentation since there have been no conditional asset retirement obligations.

In December 2004, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 154, Accounting Changes and Error Corrections, a replacement of APB Opinion No. 20 and SFAS No. 3. This statement changes the requirements for the accounting for and the reporting of a change in accounting principle. This statement requires retrospective application to prior period financial statements of changes in accounting principle, unless it is impracticable to determine either the period-specific effects of the cumulative effect of the change. Indirect effects of a change in accounting principle should be recognized in the period of the accounting change. The provisions of SFAS No. 154 are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2005. The Company has adopted this Statement beginning January 1, 2006.

6.STOCKHOLDERS’ EQUITY

On June 11, 1998, the Company increased its authorized common stock to 30,000,000 shares and its authorized preferred stock to 5,000,000 shares. On July 20, 1998, the Former Parent completed the sale of 13,636,000 shares of the Company’s common stock in a public offering (the “Offering”), representing its entire investment in the Company. During 2001 and 2002 the Company issued and distributed 1,460,000 shares of its common stock as well as warrants to purchase 863,647 shares of the Company’s common stock, at an exercise price of $6.00 per share in settlement of the class action lawsuit filed against the Company in 1999. The warrants expired on June 18, 2003. None of the warrants were exercised. On August 10, 2001, the Company’s stockholders approved an amendment to the Company’s Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation increasing the number of authorized shares of its common stock to 40,000,000 shares.

On June 30, 2000, the Company entered into a Stock Purchase Agreement (the “Agreement”) with Crane & Co., Inc. (“Crane”). Under the Agreement, the Company sold 3,387,720 shares of the Company’s common stock to Crane for an aggregate purchase price of $9,316,230. The Agreement also provides that

F-15

the Board of Directors of the Company and the audit committee of the Board of Directors each be expanded by one position, which was filled by Douglas A. Crane, a representative of Crane. Mr. Crane resigned from our Board of Directors on November 29, 2005 and on November 30, 2005 we were informed by Crane & Co., Inc. of their intention to sell a portion or all of their shares in an orderly manner. Crane has not sold any of its shares as of March 15, 2006.

The Agreement also contains a standstill provision, whereby Crane agreed, that, among other things, neither it nor its affiliates, except as otherwise provided for in the Agreement, will acquire more than its current proportionate share of the outstanding securities of the Company. The standstill provision also provides that Crane will not offer, sell or transfer any of its voting securities of the Company during a tender or exchange offer if such offer is opposed by the Company’s Board of Directors.

During 2000, the Company entered into additional agreements with Crane under which the Company rents factory space and leases employees for the Company’s facility in Dalton, MA. For the years ended December 31, 2005, 2004 and 2003, the Company paid Crane under these agreements, $72,000 each year, for the rental of factory space and $153,000, $169,000 and $162,000, respectively, for the leased employees, which are primarily included in cost of goods sold in the accompanying statements of operations.

7.FACILITY CONSOLIDATION

On December 14, 2004, the Company entered into agreements to lease a 134,000 square foot modern manufacturing and office building in Robbinsville, New Jersey, which is the site of its primary operations following the closure, relocation and consolidation of its operations in Elmsford, New York and Huntingdon Valley, Pennsylvania into the Robbinsville site. The Company completed the relocation and consolidation of its operations during 2005. The Robbinsville facility provides substantial room for expansion as the Company consolidated its operations that were being conducted within a 58,000 square foot facility in Elmsford, New York and a 30,000 square foot facility in Huntingdon Valley, Pennsylvania into the new facility. We are currently evaluating the possible use of the Huntingdon Valley facility for certain manufacturing and secure storage. The Company has also acquired and installed additional equipment and technology in the new facility to broaden its capabilities to serve its target customers, expand capacity, become more vertically integrated and improve efficiency.

The base rent on the lease for the Robbinsville, New Jersey facility is $555,000 per year, increasing by 1.9% per year, and the first seven months of the lease were rent-free. We recorded a minimal amount of deferred rent in 2004 and $0.4 million in 2005. The term of the lease for the Robbinsville facility extends through May 31, 2017, and at the expiration of the term, we have options to renew the lease for three consecutive five year periods at the then fair market value and also have an option to purchase the building after the end of the original lease term for the adjusted fair market value as defined in the lease agreement. The base rent on the lease in Huntingdon Valley, Pennsylvania is $144,000 per year. The lease on this facility expires on June 30, 2007. The base rent on the lease in Elmsford, New York is $746,000 per year. The lease on this facility expires on December 31, 2007. As the Elmsford facility was abandoned as part of our move and consolidation in 2005 the remaining rent through the end of the lease term has been charged to facility consolidation expense in 2005.

We invested approximately $6.1 million through 2005 in capital assets relating to the move and consolidation, of which approximately $5.2 million was expended in 2005 and $.9 million was expended in 2004. These expenditures were for facility upgrades to customize the Robbinsville, New Jersey facility for the Company’s operational and security requirements as well as the acquisition of new equipment to upgrade and expand our production capabilities.

The following table illustrates the costs incurred in the relocation and consolidation in the years ended

8.STOCK INCENTIVE PLANS

On August 8, 2005, we adopted the 2005 Stock Incentive Plan (the “2005 Plan”), which was subsequently approved by our stockholders at the annual meeting on September 22, 2005. The number of shares available for issuance under the 2005 Stock Incentive Plan is 1,600,000. On August 4, 2000, we adopted the American Bank Note Holographics, Inc. 2000 Stock Incentive Plan (as amended, the “2000 Plan”), which was subsequently approved by our stockholders at our annual meeting on September 12, 2000. In August 2001, our stockholders approved an amendment to the 2000 Plan increasing the shares available for issuance thereunder by 600,000 to 1,350,000 shares. On July 20, 1998, we adopted the 1998 Stock Incentive Plan (as amended, the “1998 Plan”, and collectively with the 2000 Plan and the 2005 Plan, the “Plans”). The Plans were adopted for the purpose of granting various stock incentives to officers, directors, employees and consultants of ABNH. The board of directors (or a committee appointed by the board of directors) has discretionary authority, subject to certain restrictions, to administer the Plans. The total number of shares reserved for issuance under the Plans are 4,813,000 shares of common stock. Options to purchase 2,971,938 shares of common stock were outstanding under the Plans at December 31, 2005. The exercise price of options granted under the Plans may not be less than 100% of the fair market value of the common stock on the date such option was granted. Options granted under the Plans generally become vested and exercisable for up to either 25% or 33 1/3% of the total optioned shares upon each succeeding anniversary of the date of grant. Generally, the unexercised portion of any option automatically terminates upon the termination of the optionee’s employment with us, unless otherwise determined by the board of directors; provided however, that any extension shall not extend beyond the expiration of the option, generally ten years. Upon a change in control, outstanding options will generally become fully vested. Additionally at December 31, 2005, 15,000 shares of restricted stock had been issued. Restricted stock will fully vest three years from the date of issuance if the grantee is employed at that time. On January 26, 2006, we granted options to purchase an aggregate of 30,000 shares of common stock to our executive officers and directors and 193,000 shares of common stock to our employees at an exercise price equal to the fair value of the common stock at the date of the grant. Additionally we issued 60,000 restricted shares to executive officers and 79,000 restricted shares to employees on that date.

9.EMPLOYEE BENEFITS PLANS

Retirement Plans — On October 1, 1999, the Company implemented defined contribution plans for its employees. Aggregate contributions to such plans, which have been charged to the Company’s operations, were approximately $57,000, $59,000 and $56,000 for the years ended December 31, 2005, 2004 and 2003, respectively.

10.COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

The Company currently, and from time to time, is involved in litigation (as both plaintiff and defendant) incidental to the conduct of its business; however, the Company is not a party to any lawsuit or proceeding which, in the opinion of management of the Company, is likely to have a material impact on the Company’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

F-18

Product Liability Matters — The Company provides holograms in connection with a wide range of its customers’ products, in which case it is possible that the Company is subject to product liabilities in association with those products or in connection with the holograms used with those products. Although the Company maintains product liability insurance, there can be no assurance that such insurance would be available to cover any such claim or available in amounts sufficient to cover all potential liabilities. As a result, product liability claims could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.

Leases — The Company has long-term operating leases for offices, manufacturing facilities and equipment, which expire through 2017. The Company has three five year renewal options on its Robbinsville location, which provides for renewal rents based upon the adjusted fair market rental value, as defined in the lease agreement.

Rental expense was approximately $1.3 million, $1.2 million and $1.3 million for the years ended December 31, 2005, 2004 and 2003, respectively.

At December 31, 2005, future minimum lease payments under non-cancelable operating leases, expiring through 2017, are as follows: $1.6 million in 2006; $1.4 million in 2007; $0.6 million in 2008; $0.6 million in 2009 and $4.8 million, thereafter.

Employment Agreements — The Company entered into employment agreements with certain of its current executive officers, which provide for, among other matters, minimum compensation of approximately $0.8 million in 2006 and $0.8 million in 2007. The agreements also provide for bonuses. In connection with these agreements, the Company granted options to acquire 1,567,500 shares of its common stock from February 1999 through December 2005, at prices ranging from $0.85 to $6.40 per share, representing the fair market value of the Company’s common stock on the dates of grants.

11.Subsequent Event

The Company previously reported that it had learned that there had been a small number of incidents in which certain card terminals had been affected by electro-static discharge (“ESD”) from static electricity carried on cards incorporating HoloMag. The Company also reported at that date that it had been advised by customers of a need to develop a second generation holographic magnetic tape product that addresses the ESD issue, and that the Company had commenced such development, but that there can be no assurance that the Company will be successful in developing such a product that will be acceptable to its customers.

On March 14, 2006, we were informed by VISA that, as a result of the ESD issue, VISA is informing its member financial institutions and authorized card manufacturers that (i) VISA will no longer approve VISA card designs which incorporate the current version of HoloMag, (ii) VISA strongly recommends that their members attempt to avoid further issuance of cards incorporating the current version of HoloMag and (iii) VISA recommends that their members follow an alternate card design incorporating a conventional magnetic stripe and Dove hologram and VISA also provided notice to us that it was revoking our right to produce HoloMag under its agreement (the “VISA Decision”). The Company continues to evaluate VISA’s actions and claims and has provided VISA with its initial response. The Company believes that it is in compliance with its agreement with VISA and that its HoloMag product complies with all standards and specifications therein. As a result of VISA’s notification to financial institutions and authorized card manufacturers, the Company has received communications from VISA authorized card manufacturers seeking to address the status and disposition of their HoloMag inventory and orders.

F-19

Accordingly,in the quarter ended December 31, 2005, as a result of the VISA Decision, the Company recorded a pre-tax charge amounting to approximately $5.0 million of which $4.8 million was recorded in cost of goods sold and was principally related to the value of our HoloMag inventory. Also included in the charge were increases in our provisions for accounts receivable and potential non-ESD related warranty claims.We will review the valuation of these accounts on an ongoing basis as part of our closing process and make appropriate changes to our reserve levels based upon the facts at the time.

8.Governing Law.

This Agreement shall be governed by and construed and enforced in accordance with the internal laws of the State of New York, without regard to principles of conflicts of laws.

10.Publicity.

Except as may be required by law or applicable governmental regulatory authorities, neither Party will, without the prior written consent of the other Party make any news release or public announcement regarding this Agreement. Either party may disclose the existence of this Agreement only in order to fulfill the intent of the Agreement to any other party, but not the contents of the Agreement or any purchase order without the consent of the other party or as required by law. An example of a permitted disclosure in order to fulfill the intent of the Agreement is for ABNH to inform its customers that CFC is supplying HoloMag foils pursuant to this Agreement. If a customer of ABNH requests information from CFC or the opportunity to visit CFC’s manufacturing facilities, CFC will cooperate to support such reasonable requests.

11.Assignments.

Neither Party may assign any rights or obligations under this Agreement or any purchase order (including the right to receive monies due hereunder) without the prior written consent of the other Party, and any purported assignment without such consent will be void.

12.Waiver and Amendment.

This Agreement may not be amended or modified, and no provision hereof may be waived without the written consent of the parties affected by such amendment. If either Party should waive any breach of any provisions of this Agreement, it shall not thereby be deemed to have waived any preceding or succeeding breach of the same or any other provisions of this Agreement.

13.Injunctive Relief and other Remedies.

The parties acknowledge that each Party’s obligations under this Agreement are of a special and unique character for which monetary damages for breach would be inadequate and therefore each Party agrees that the other Party shall be entitled to injunctive and other equitable relief in the event of a breach or threatened breach in addition to any and all rights and remedies available at law or otherwise.

14.Further Assurances.

The Parties will execute such further assurances and other documents and instruments and do such further and other things as may be necessary to implement and carry out the intent of this Agreement.

15.Severability.

If any provision of this Agreement shall be adjudicated invalid or unenforceable, such invalidity or unenforceability shall not in any manner affect or render invalid or unenforceable any other provision of this Agreement and such adjudication shall apply only in the particular jurisdiction in which such adjudication is made, and this Agreement shall be carried out as if any such invalid or unenforceable provision were not contained herein; provided, however, to the extent any provision hereof is deemed unenforceable by virtue of its scope in terms of area or length of time, but may be enforceable with limitation thereon, the Parties agree that the same shall nevertheless be enforceable to the fullest extent permissible under the laws and public policies applied in such jurisdiction in which enforcement is sought.

16.Entire Agreement.

This Agreement constitutes the entire agreement between the Parties and supersedes all previous expectations, understandings, communications, representations and agreements whether verbal or written between the Parties concerning the development and supply of Holomag Foils.

17.Arbitration.

Any and all claims, disputes or controversies arising under, out of, or in connection with this Agreement that have not been resolved by good faith negotiations between the Parties shall be resolved by final and binding arbitration under the rules of the American Arbitration Association or other organization acceptable to the Parties (the “AAA”) then obtaining, in proceedings to be held in New York City. In any and all instances in which a claim, dispute or controversy is to be arbitrated pursuant to this Section, there shall be one arbitrator. Such arbitrator shall be designated by the AAA; provided that neither ABNH nor CFC shall have objection to such arbitrator and that, if no single arbitrator has been designated by the AAA to which neither ABNH nor CFC has an objection, a panel consisting of three arbitrators shall be selected, to include one arbitrator to be designated by each of ABNH and CFC and one arbitrator to be designated by the AAA. The costs of arbitration shall be divided equally between ABNH and CFC. Such arbitrator shall have no power to add to, subtract from or modify any of the terms or conditions of this Agreement, and shall provide a written opinion explaining the reasons for any award rendered in any arbitration pursuant to this Section. Any award so rendered may be

7

enforced in a court of appropriate jurisdiction, which shall include any state or federal court situated in New York, New York, U.S.A.

11.0Governing Law. This Amendment shall be governed by and construed and enforced in accordance with the internal laws of the State of New York, without regard to principles of conflicts of laws.

12.0Counterparts. This Amendment may be executed in counterparts and all counterparts shall constitute one document, notwithstanding that all the parties may not be signatories to the same counterpart.
