NOTE 7 - Income Taxes

Tilden Associates Inc. and its subsidiaries have elected to file a consolidated income tax return for Federal and New York State income tax purposes. Tax expense is allocated to each subsidiary based on the proportion of its taxable income to the total consolidated taxable income.

Consolidated income tax expense consisted of the following:

 Six Months Ended

 State -- --
 ------------ ------------
Total current provision -- --

Total deferred provision -- --

Total income tax expense $ -- $ --
 ============ ============

Deferred income taxes arise from temporary differences resulting from income and expense items reported in different periods of financial accounting and tax purposes. The sources of deferred income taxes and their tax effects are the result of nondeductible provisions for doubtful accounts and net operating loss carryforwards. The benefit resulting from deferred taxes has been fully reserved.

A reconciliation of the expected income tax expense (benefit) to reported income tax follows:

Provision for income taxes $ -- $ --
 ============ ============

Net operating loss carryovers at December 31, 2007 were approximately $285,000 and will expire in 2027. The Company does not anticipate fully utilizing these carryovers in 2008.

NOTE 8 - Commitments and Contingencies

Leases

The Company, through various subsidiaries, sub-lets properties to several franchisees. Additionally, several franchisees sub-let property from affiliates of the Company's President (See Note 10). Franchisees typically pay rent on these properties to the subsidiaries. In some circumstances, franchisees may pay rent directly to the lessors of the operating leases. Future minimum lease payments under these operating leases for the years ended December 31, are as follows:

2008 $ 156,816
2009 302,447
2010 248,381
2011 233,921
2012 200,851
2013 and thereafter 861,046
 ------------
 $ 2,003,462
 ============

The company leases an office in New York under an agreement that commenced in October 2003 and expires in September 2008. Total gross rent expense for the six months ended June 30, 2008 and 2007 was $12,756 and $6,721, respectively. Future minimum lease payments under this operating lease for the year ended December 31, 2008 is $3,060.

Employment Agreements

The President of the Company, Mr. Robert Baskind, has an employment contract that renews annually on the first day of each year and which entitled him to a salary of approximately $155,000 during 2007. In accordance with the terms of the employment contract, he is entitled to five percent increases on a yearly basis. The employment agreement, as amended, expires in 2010. Additionally, Mr. Baskind's agreement provides for other customary provisions.

Litigation

In the normal course of business, the Company and its subsidiaries are subject to various claims and legal proceedings. If management believes that a loss arising from these matters is probable and can be reasonably estimated, the Company records the amount of the estimated loss, or the minimum estimated liability when the loss is estimated using a range, and no point within the range is more probable than another. As additional information becomes available, any potential liability related to these matters is assessed and the estimates are revised, if necessary. Based on currently available information, management believes that the ultimate outcome of these matters, individually and in the aggregate, will not have a material adverse effect on our financial position or overall trends in results of operations.

NOTE 9 - Concentration of Credit Risk

Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to credit risk include cash and accounts and notes receivable. At June 30, 2008 two accounts exceeded federally insured limits by approximately $276,000 and at December 31, 2007 two accounts exceeded the federally insured limits by approximately $272,000. Also, at June 30, 2008 and December 31, 2007, the Company had accounts and notes receivable from franchisees of approximately $402,900 and $356,300, respectively, net of an allowance for doubtful accounts of approximately $450,200 and $367,900, respectively. Notes receivable, derived principally from sales of franchises and market areas, are collateralized by the franchise agreements to which they relate. Presently, a majority of the Company's franchises are within the states of New York, Florida, Texas and Colorado.

NOTE 10 - Related Party Transactions

Franchise Facilities

The Company rents certain Franchise locations owned or leased by the Company's president and affiliates, which are sublet to Franchisees. For the six months ended June 30, 2008 and the year ended December 31, 2007, rent paid to the Company's president and affiliates for real estate sublet was $27,675 and $67,706 respectively. Management believes that the lease payments made by the Company to these officers, directors, and affiliates are at fair market value and are approximately equal to the rent charged to the Franchises occupying each facility.

NOTE 11 - Stock Options

Tilden Associates, Inc. Stock Option Plans

From May 1998 to December 2005, the Company adopted several Tilden Associates, Inc. Stock Option Plans ("the Plans") on an annual basis. The Company may issue incentive options for a term of no greater than ten years and non-incentive stock options for a term of no greater than eleven years. The incentive stock options may be issued with an exercise price of no less than 100% of the fair market value of the stock at the time of the grant. However, in the case of employees holding greater than 10% of the Company's common stock, the option price shall not be less than 110% of the fair market value of the stock at the time of the grant and the term of the option may not exceed five years. The non-incentive stock options may be issued with an exercise price of

no less than 50% of the fair market value of the stock at the time of the grant. Additionally, options may be granted to any eligible person for shares of common stock of any value provided that the aggregate fair market value of the stock with respect to which incentive stock options are exercisable for the first time during any calendar year, shall not exceed $100,000. Additionally, the option price shall be paid in full at the time of exercise in cash or, with the approval of the Board of Directors, in shares of common stock. Further, if prior to the expiration of the option the employee ceases to be employed by the Company, the options granted will terminate 90 days after termination of the employee's employment with the Company.

From 1998 to 2005, the Company granted stock options to purchase a total of 7,038,300 shares of the Company's common stock at exercise prices ranging from $0.01 per share to $3.00 per share. Through December 31, 2005, 32,500 options were exercised, 938,800 options expired or were forfeited, and 6,067,000 options remained outstanding at December 31, 2005.

On July 18, 2006, a derivative action was filed challenging the issuance of stock options by the Company to members of management and the Board of Directors between 2001 and 2005. In August of 2006, the Company rescinded the stock options issued in the years 2001 to 2005. On September 11, 2006, the action was settled.

No stock options were granted in 2007 or in the six months ended June 30, 2008. At June 30, 2008, there are no stock options outstanding.

NOTE 12 - Other Receivable

On May 5, 2004, Oilmatic Franchising Corp., a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company ("Oilmatic"), was formed for the purpose of selling franchises for the system developed by Oilmatic International, LLC ("International"). Through December 31 2005, the Company advanced $79,258 to Oilmatic in connection with its formation and the acquisition of the exclusive franchise rights for certain locations from International. In November 2005, Oilmatic agreed to terminate its franchise rights and International agreed to pay the Company $65,000 payable in eighteen equal monthly installments of $3,611 commencing January, 2006. As of June 30, 2008, the balance receivable on the agreement was $4,722.

NOTE 13 - Franchises and Market Area Activities

Franchises

During the six months ended June 30, 2008 and 2007, the Company sold one and two new franchises, respectively. As of June 30, 2008 and 2007, the Company had 45 and 51 active franchised locations, respectively. Throughout each year several franchises are returned to the Company's control either through foreclosures or abandonment.

Market Areas

During the six months ended June 30, 2008 and 2007, the Company sold no rights to develop new market areas.

NOTE 14 - Retirement Plan

In November, 2006, the Company adopted a qualified deferred arrangement 401(k) plan where employees may contribute up to the Internal Revenue Service deferred compensation limit for 401(k) plans, which was $15,500 in 2007. The plan allows the Company to make optional non-elective contributions into the plan for full-time employees. For the six months ended June 30, 2008, Company contributions to the plan (which are expensed when incurred) were $0.

NOTE 15 - Sale of Building

In March 2007, the Company purchased a building in West Babylon, New York for approximately $819,000. The purchase was financed by cash on hand at the time of the purchase and by the utilization of a line of credit established by the Company in 2006. Included in the cost of the building was the purchase of lease rights, from the franchisee who previously occupied the space, in the amount of $125,000. Also in March 2007, the Company sold the West Babylon building for approximately $950,000 resulting in a profit of approximately $131,000. The contract of sale required that the Company keep $200,000 in escrow until the building is evacuated and the equipment maintained by the franchisee is removed. In February 2008, the building was evacuated and the Company received the balance of funds held in escrow.

NOTE 16 - Agreement and Plan of Merger and Reorganization

On March 27, 2008, the Company entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger and Reorganization with Extreme Mobile Coatings, Inc. ("Extreme"), Extreme Acquisition Company, Inc.("Extreme Acquisition") and TFB Acquisition Company, LLC ("TFB"), which contemplated the Company's acquisition of Extreme, by way of a merger of Extreme Acquisition, a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, with and into Extreme. Under the terms of the merger agreement, the existing shareholders of Extreme were to be issued 9,355,000 unregistered shares of the Company's common stock after giving effect to a proposed 1 for17 reverse split of the Company's common stock and Extreme was to become a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company. The shares were to represent approximately 94% of the Company's outstanding common stock after completion of the merger. Extreme is in the business of (1) offering franchises to operate a mobile business which provides painting or coatings on various surfaces using a patented system and
(2) operating a mobile coating business in Kentucky. The agreement also contemplated that at the time of the merger into Extreme, the assets owned by the Company in connection with conducting its existing business (the "Automotive Assets") were to be sold to TFB, a newly formed company controlled by Robert Baskind, Chairman and President of the Company. The purchase price for the Automotive Assets was to consist of (1) the assumption of substantially all of the Company's liabilities, (2) the release of the Company by Mr. Baskind from all existing and future claims, liabilities and obligations under his employment agreement with the Company and (3) the surrender of 75,000 shares of the Company's common stock after giving effect to the reverse stock split, for cancellation. As a result of the merger and the disposition of the Company's existing business to TFB, the business of Extreme was to represent the Company's sole line of business after the closing of transactions contemplated by the merger. In connection with the consummation of the transactions contemplated by the merger agreement, the directors and officers of the Company, were to be replaced by designees of Extreme. The closing of the transactions contemplated by the merger agreement were scheduled to take place within five days after the date when each of the conditions precedent to closing set forth in the merger agreement were fulfilled, including, among others, approval of such transactions by the stockholders of the Company. In June 2008, the Agreement and Plan of Merger and Reorganization was terminated.

Item 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OR PLAN OF OPERATION

The following discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with the Company's consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included elsewhere herein. The statements disclosed herein include forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. The Company's actual results could differ materially from those projected in the forward-looking statements as a result of certain risks and uncertainties, including, but not limited to, competition in the finance industry for franchising companies and retail automobile and truck repair service, and other risks detailed from time to time in the Company's filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

Tilden Associates, Inc. (the "Company") is a Delaware Corporation. Its principal business is to sell automotive franchises and to administer and support full service automotive repair centers carrying its trademarks. The Company's operations are based at 300 Hempstead Turnpike, West Hempstead, New York, 11552.

Revenue decreased to approximately $256,000 in the second quarter of 2008 from approximately $319,000 in the second quarter of 2007, representing a 20% decrease. The decrease in overall revenue was primarily attributed to decreases in royalty fees, sales of equipment purchased for resale and sales from the operation of company owned stores of approximately $26,000, $23,000 and $13,000, respectively. The decrease in royalties was attributable to a net reduction of six franchises due to store closings since July, 2007. The decrease in sales of equipment purchased for resale was attributable to fewer stores requiring equipment in the second quarter of 2008 compared to the second quarter of 2007. The decrease in sales from the operation of company owned stores was attributable to the closing of its Texas store in 2007 which left the Company with no sales from operation of company owned stores during the second quarter of 2008.

Cost of revenues decreased to approximately $118,000 in the second quarter of 2008 from approximately $180,000 in the second quarter of 2007, representing a 44% decrease. As a percentage of revenue, cost of revenues were 46% and 56%, respectively for the periods reported. The overall decrease was primarily attributable to decreases in the rent paid for real estate sublet, costs of the equipment for resale, and costs of operation of company owned stores of approximately $26,000, $19,000 and $9,000, respectively. The decrease in rent paid for real estate sublease was a result of decreased rent paid on locations, which are either sublet to franchisees or incurred upon the Company's operation of company owned locations. The decrease in the costs of equipment for resale relates to fewer stores requiring equipment in the second quarter of 2008 compared to the second quarter of 2007.The decrease in costs of operation of company owned stores was a result of the Company's closing of its company owned location in 2007.

Selling, general and administrative expenses increased to approximately $196,000 in the second quarter of 2008 from approximately $162,000 in the second quarter of 2007, representing a 21% increase. The changes in the composition of selling, general and administrative expenses during the second quarter were predominately attributed to increases in bad debt expense, officer's salary and insurance of approximately $14,000, $13,000 and $9,000, respectively. The increase in bad debt expense during the second quarter of 2008 was attributable to an increase in the number of franchises requiring reserve for bad debt during the period, which the Company believes is a result of the economic downturn affecting many of its franchised locations. The increase in officer's salary is attributable to a change made during the second quarter of 2008, in the timing of how the Company's chief executive officer receives his compensation. The increase in insurance was attributable to the Company's initiation of a directors and officer's insurance policy during the second quarter of 2008.

Revenue decreased to approximately $633,000 through the second quarter of 2008 from approximately $754,000 through the second quarter of 2007, representing a 16% decrease. The decrease in overall revenue was primarily attributed to decreases in sales from the operation of company owned stores, royalty fees, initial franchise acquisition fees and sales of equipment purchased for resale of approximately $122,000, $34,000,$25,000 and $23,000, respectively. These decreases were offset by increases in sales of company owned locations and in rental income of approximately $65,000 and $19,000, respectively. The decrease in sales from the operation of company owned stores was attributable to the closing of its Texas store in 2007 which left the Company with no sales from operation of company owned stores during through the second quarter of 2008. The decrease in royalties was attributable to a net reduction of six franchises due to store closings since July of 2007. The decrease in initial franchise acquisition fees is attributable to the sale of one new franchise through the second quarter 2008 compared to two through the second quarter of 2007. The decrease in sales of equipment purchased for resale was attributable to fewer stores requiring equipment during the first six months of 2008 as compared to the first six months of 2007. The increase in sale of company owned location is attributable to the Company's sale of one company owned location through the second quarter 2008 compared to no sale of company owned locations through the second quarter 2007. The increase in rental revenue was primarily attributable to the increase in franchises obligated to the Company under sub-lease agreements through the second quarter of 2008 compared to through the second quarter of 2007, a result of the franchising of a company owned location, which now pays rent to the Company.

Cost of revenues decreased to approximately $272,000 through the second quarter of 2008 from approximately $460,000 through the second quarter of 2007, representing a 41% decrease. As a percentage of revenue, cost of revenues were 43% and 61%, respectively for the periods reported. The overall decrease was primarily attributable to decreases in the costs of the operation of company owned stores, broker fees and costs of equipment for resale of approximately $125,000, $41,000 and $19,000, respectively. These decreases have been offset by an increase in cost of locations purchased for resale of approximately $15,000. The decrease in the costs of the operation of Company-owned stores was a result of the closing of its Texas store in 2007, which left the Company with no cost of operation of company owned stores through the first six months of 2008. The decrease in broker fees was attributable to the decrease in market area and new franchise sales, on which the Company often pays broker fees, through the second quarter of 2008 compared to the second quarter of 2007. The decrease in the costs of equipment for resale relates to fewer stores requiring equipment through the second quarter of 2008 compared to the first six months of 2007. The increase in costs of locations purchased for resale relates to the cost incurred in connection with its sale of one company owned location through the second quarter of 2008 as compared to no sales of company locations through the first six months of 2007.

Selling, general and administrative expenses increased to approximately $451,000 through the second quarter of 2008 from approximately $374,000 through the second quarter of 2007, representing a 21% increase. The changes in the composition of selling, general and administrative expenses through the second quarter were predominately attributed to increases in bad debt expense, officer's salary and insurance expense of approximately $86,000, $14,000 and $10,000 offset by decreases in professional fees and training expenses of approximately $18,000 and $8,000, respectively. The increase in bad debt expense through the second quarter of 2008 was attributable to an increase in the number of franchises requiring reserve for bad debt during the period, which the Company believes is a result of the economic downturn affecting many of its franchised locations. The increase in officer's salary is attributable to a change made during the second quarter of 2008, in the timing of how the Company's chief executive officer receives his compensation. The increase in insurance was attributable to the Company's initiation of a directors and officer's insurance policy during the second quarter of 2008. The decrease in professional fees is attributable to the Company's incurring of increased professional fees in connection with the contemplated asset purchase and reorganization agreement which the Company attempted to execute in 2007 as compared with professional fees incurred through the second quarter 2008. The decrease in training expenses was primarily attributable to a decrease in prospective new franchisees, who required training, through the second quarter of 2008 as compared with training expenses incurred through the second quarter of 2007.

Working capital at June 30, 2008 was approximately $268,000, compared to working capital of approximately $408,000 at December 31, 2007. The ratio of current assets to current liabilities was 1.5:1 at June 30, 2008 and 1.7:1 at December 31, 2007. Cash flow used for operations through the second quarter of 2008 was approximately $17,000 compared to the cash flow provided by operations through the second quarter of 2007 of approximately $48,000.

Accounts receivable - trade, net of allowances, increased to approximately $403,000 at June 30, 2008 from approximately $356,000 at December 31, 2007.

Our significant accounting policies are described in Note 1 to the financial statements included in our annual report on Form 10-KSB. Our financial statements are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The following policies, we believe, are our most critical accounting policies and are explained below.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from the estimates.

Revenue Recognition

The Company recognizes revenue in several ways: Initial fees from sale of franchises, market area sales to market developer partners, royalties (as a percentage of gross revenues) from franchisees, equipment sales, rental of premises to franchisees and the operation of Company owned automotive repair centers which are developed for potential sale to franchisees.

Franchise fee revenue for initial franchise fees and from market area sales to market developer partners is recognized upon the execution of a franchise agreement and when all material services or conditions relating to the sale have been successfully completed by the Company. Market developer partners receive a percentage of royalty fees for development and management of their market and are responsible for substantially all training and other services required in opening new franchises in their regions.

Equipment sales are recorded upon delivery and installation of equipment to franchisees.
