NOTES
TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)
For
The Three and Six Months Ended September 30, 2006 and 2005
NOTE
1 - MANAGEMENT’S REPRESENTATION
The
accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared
by
Cryoport, Inc. (the “Company”) in accordance with accounting principles
generally accepted in the United States of America for interim financial
information, and pursuant to the instructions to Form 10-QSB and Article 10
of
Regulation S-X promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission.
Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required
by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America
for
complete financial statement presentation. However, the Company believes that
the disclosures are adequate to make the information presented not misleading.
In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting primarily of normal
recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been
included.
Operating
results for the six months ended September 30, 2006 are not necessarily
indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending March 31,
2007. It is suggested that the consolidated financial statements be read in
conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and related
notes
thereto included in the Company’s Form 10-KSB for the fiscal year ended March
31, 2006.
NOTE
2 - ORGANIZATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING
POLICIES
Organization
The
Company was originally incorporated under the name G.T.5-Limited (“GT-5”) on May
25, 1990 as a Nevada Corporation. The Company was engaged in the business of
designing and building exotic body styles for automobiles compatible with the
vehicle’s existing chassis.
On
March
15, 2005, the Company entered into a Share Exchange Agreement (the “Agreement”)
with Cryoport Systems, Inc. (“Cryoport Systems”), a California corporation, and
its stockholders whereby the Company acquired all of the issued and outstanding
shares of Cryoport Systems in exchange for 24,108,105 shares of its common
stock
(which represents approximately 81% of the total issued and outstanding shares
of common stock following the close of the transaction). Cryoport Systems was
originally formed in 1999 as a California limited liability company and was
reorganized into a California corporation on December 11, 2000. Cryoport Systems
was founded to capitalize on servicing the transportation needs of the growing
global “biotechnology revolution”. Effective March 16, 2005, the Company changed
its name to Cryoport, Inc. The transaction was recorded as a reverse
acquisition.

NOTE
2 - ORGANIZATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES,
continued
The
principal focus of the Company is to develop a line of disposable (or one-way)
dry cryogenic shippers for the transport of biological materials. These
materials include live cell pharmaceutical products; e.g., cancer vaccines,
diagnostic materials, reproductive tissues, infectious substances and other
items that require continuous exposure to cryogenic temperature (less than
-150°C).
The
Company currently manufactures a line of reusable cryogenic dry shippers. These
primarily serve as vehicles for the development of the cryogenic technology
that
supports the disposable product development but also are essential components
of
the infrastructure that supports testing and research activities of the
pharmaceutical and biotechnology industries. The Company’s mission is to provide
cost effective packaging systems for biological materials requiring, or
benefiting from, a cryogenic temperature environment over an extended period
of
time.
Going
Concern
The
accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in conformity
with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America,
which contemplate continuation of the Company as a going concern. The Company
has not generated significant revenues from operations and has no assurance
of
any future revenues. The Company incurred a net loss of $1,380,188 during the
six-month period ended September 30, 2006 and had a cash balance of $10,562
at
September 30, 2006. In addition, at September 30, 2006, the Company’s
stockholders’ deficit was $2,428,603 and the Company had negative working
capital of $587,407. These factors, among others, raise substantial doubt about
the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.
The
Company’s management recognizes that the Company must obtain additional capital
for the eventual achievement of sustained profitable operations. Management’s
plans include obtaining additional capital through equity funding sources.
However, no assurance can be given that additional capital, if needed, will
be
available when required or upon terms acceptable to the Company or that the
Company will be successful in its efforts to negotiate the extension of its
existing debt. The accompanying consolidated financial statements do not include
any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this
uncertainty.
Basis
of Presentation
The
accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance
with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
The acquisition of Cryoport Systems by the Company has been accounted for as
a
reverse acquisition, whereby the assets and liabilities of Cryoport Systems
are
reported at their historical cost. The Company had no
assets
or operations at the date of acquisition. The reverse acquisition resulted
in a
change in reporting entity for accounting and reporting purposes. Accordingly,
the accompanying consolidated financial statements have been retroactively
restated for all periods presented to report the historical financial position,
results of operations and cash flows of Cryoport Systems. Since the Company’s
stockholders retained 5,600,000 shares of common stock in connection with the
reverse acquisition, such shares have been reflected as if they were issued
to
the Company on the date of acquisition for no consideration as part of a
corporate reorganization.

Principles
of Consolidation
The
consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Cryoport, Inc. and
its
wholly owned subsidiary, Cryoport Systems, Inc. All intercompany accounts and
transactions have been eliminated.
Use
of
Estimates
The
preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting
principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires
management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts
of
assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities
at
the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and
expenses during the reporting periods. Actual results could differ from
estimated amounts. The Company’s significant estimates include allowances for
doubtful accounts and sales returns, recoverability of long-lived assets,
allowances for inventory obsolescence, accrued warranty costs, valuation of
deferred tax assets and product liability reserves.
Concentrations
of Credit Risk
Cash
The
Company maintains its cash accounts in financial institutions. Accounts at
these
institutions are insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”)
up to $100,000. At September 30, 2006, the Company had no cash balances which
were in excess of the FDIC insurance limit. The Company performs ongoing
evaluations of these institutions to limit its concentration risk
exposure.
Customers
The
Company grants credit to customers within the United States of America and
to a
limited number of international customers, and does not require collateral.
Sales to other international customers are secured by advance payments, letters
of credit, or cash against documents. The Company’s
ability to collect receivables is affected by economic fluctuations in the
geographic areas and industries served by the Company. Reserves for
uncollectible amounts, totaling approximately $47,000 as of September 30, 2006,
are provided based on past experience and a specific analysis of the accounts
which management believes are sufficient. Although the Company expects to
collect amounts due, actual collections may differ from the estimated
amounts.

NOTE
2 - ORGANIZATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES,
continued
The
Company has foreign sales primarily in Europe, Latin America and Canada. Foreign
sales are primarily under non-exclusive distribution agreements with
international distributors. During the six month periods ended September 30,
2006 and 2005, the Company had foreign sales of approximately $11,306 and
$51,000, respectively, which constituted approximately 42% and 35%,
respectively, of net sales.
The
majority of the Company’s customers are in the bio-tech and animal breeding
industries. Consequently, there is a concentration of receivables within these
industries, which is subject to normal credit risk.
Fair
Value of Financial Instruments
The
Company’s consolidated financial instruments consist of cash, accounts
receivable, related party notes payable, payables, accrued expenses and a note
payable to a third party. The carrying value for all such instruments, except
the related party notes payable, approximates fair value at September 30, 2006.
The difference between the fair value and recorded values of the notes payable
is not significant.
Inventories
Inventories
are stated at the lower of standard cost or current estimated market value.
Cost
is determined using the first-in, first-out method. The Company periodically
reviews its inventories and records a provision for excess and obsolete
inventories based primarily on the Company’s estimated forecast of product
demand and production requirements. Once established, write-downs of inventories
are considered permanent adjustments to the cost basis of the obsolete or excess
inventories. Work in process and finished goods include material, labor and
applied overhead. Inventories at September 30, 2006 consist of the
following:

Fixed
Assets
Depreciation
and amortization of fixed assets are provided using the straight-line method
over the following useful lives:
Furniture
and fixtures
|
7
years
|
Machinery
and equipment
|
5-7
years
|
Leasehold
improvements
|
Lesser
of lease term or estimated useful
life
|
Betterments,
renewals and extraordinary repairs that extend the lives of the assets are
capitalized; other repairs and maintenance charges are expensed as incurred.
The
cost and related accumulated depreciation applicable to assets retired are
removed from the accounts, and the gain or loss on disposition is recognized
in
current operations.
Intangible
Assets
Patents
and Trademarks
Patents
and trademarks are amortized, using the straight-line method, over their
estimated useful life of five years.
Long-Lived
Assets
The
Company’s management assesses the recoverability of its long-lived assets upon
the occurrence of a triggering event by determining whether the depreciation
and
amortization of long-lived assets over their remaining lives can be recovered
through projected undiscounted future cash flows. The amount of long-lived
asset
impairment, if any, is measured based on fair value and is charged to operations
in the period in which long-lived asset impairment is determined by management.
At September 30, 2006, the Company’s management believes there is no impairment
of its long-lived assets. There can be no assurance however, that market
conditions will not change or demand for the Company’s products will continue,
which could result in impairment of its long-lived assets in the
future.
Accrued
Warranty Costs
Estimated
costs of the Company’s standard warranty, included with products at no
additional cost to the customer for a period up to one year, are recorded as
accrued warranty costs at the time of product sale. Costs related to servicing
the standard warranty are charged to the accrual as incurred.

Stock-Based
Compensation
Adoption
of SFAS 123 (R)
On
April 1, 2006, the Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting
Standards No. 123 (revised 2004), Share-Based
Payment,
(“SFAS
123(R)”) which establishes standards for the accounting of transactions in which
an entity exchanges its equity instruments for goods or services, primarily
focusing on accounting for transactions where an entity obtains employee
services in share-based payment transactions. SFAS No. 123(R) requires a
public entity to measure the cost of employee services received in exchange
for
an award of equity instruments, including stock options, based on the grant-date
fair value of the award and to recognize it as compensation expense over the
period the employee is required to provide service in exchange for the award,
usually the vesting period. SFAS 123(R) supersedes the Company’s previous
accounting under Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25, Accounting
for Stock Issued to Employees
(“APB
25”). In March 2005, the Securities and Exchange Commission issued Staff
Accounting Bulletin No. 107 (“SAB 107”) relating to SFAS 123(R). The
Company has applied the provisions of SAB 107 in its adoption of SFAS
123(R).
The
Company adopted SFAS 123(R) using the modified prospective transition method,
which requires the application of the accounting standard as of April 1,
2006, the first day of the Company’s fiscal year 2007. The Company’s
consolidated financial statements as of and for the three and six months ended
September 30, 2006 reflect the impact of SFAS 123(R). In accordance with the
modified prospective transition method, the Company’s consolidated financial
statements for prior periods have not been restated to reflect, and do not
include, the impact of SFAS 123(R).
SFAS
123(R) requires companies to estimate the fair value of share-based payment
awards on the date of grant using an option-pricing model. The value of the
portion of the award that is ultimately expected to vest is recognized as
expense over the requisite service periods in the Company’s consolidated
statement of operations. Prior to the adoption of SFAS 123(R), the Company
accounted for stock-based awards to employees and directors using the intrinsic
value method in accordance with APB 25 as allowed under Statement of Financial
Accounting Standards No. 123, Accounting
for Stock-Based Compensation
(“SFAS
123”). Under the intrinsic value method, no stock-based compensation expense had
been recognized in the Company’s consolidated statements of operations, other
than as related to option grants to employees and consultants below the fair
market value of the underlying stock at the date of grant.
Stock-based
compensation expense recognized during the period is based on the value of
the
portion of share-based payment awards that is ultimately expected to vest during
the period.
Stock-based
compensation expense recognized in the Company’s consolidated statements of
operations for the three and six months ended September 30, 2006 included
compensation expense for share-based payment awards granted prior to, but not
yet vested as of March 31, 2006 based on the grant date fair value estimated
in
accordance with the pro forma provisions of SFAS 123 and compensation expense
for the share-based payment awards granted subsequent to March 31, 2006
based on the grant date fair value estimated in accordance with the provisions
of SFAS 123(R). As stock-based compensation expense recognized in the
consolidated statements of operations for the three and six months ended
September 30, 2006 is based on awards ultimately expected to vest, it has been
reduced for estimated forfeitures, if any. SFAS 123(R) requires forfeitures
to
be estimated at the time of grant and revised, if necessary, in subsequent
periods if actual forfeitures differ from those estimates. The estimated average
forfeiture rates for the three and six months ended September 30, 2006 was
zero
as the Company has not had a significant history of forfeitures. There were
no
stock options granted during the six months ended September 30, 2006 and
2005.

SFAS
123(R) requires the cash flows resulting from the tax benefits resulting from
tax deductions in excess of the compensation cost recognized for those options
to be classified as financing cash flows. Due to the Company’s loss position,
there were no such tax benefits during the three and six months ended September
30, 2006. Prior to the adoption of SFAS 123(R) those benefits would have been
reported as operating cash flows had the Company received any tax benefits
related to stock option exercises.
Plan
Description
The
Company’s stock option plan provides for grants of incentive stock options and
nonqualified options to employees, directors and consultants of the Company
to
purchase the Company’s shares at the fair value, as determined by management and
the board of directors, of such shares on the grant date. The options generally
vest over a five-year period beginning on the grant date and have a five-year
term. As of September 30, 2006, the Company is authorized to issue up to
5,000,000 shares under this plan and has 2,511,387 shares available for future
issuances.
Summary
of Assumptions and Activity
The
fair
value of stock-based awards to employees and directors is calculated using
the
Black-Scholes option pricing model, even though this model was developed to
estimate the fair value of freely tradable, fully transferable options without
vesting restrictions, which differ significantly from the Company’s stock
options. The Black-Scholes model also requires subjective assumptions, including
future stock price volatility and expected time to exercise, which greatly
affect the calculated values. The expected term of options granted is derived
from historical data on employee exercises and post-vesting employment
termination behavior. The risk-free rate selected to value any particular grant
is based on the U.S Treasury rate that corresponds to the pricing term of the
grant effective as of the date of the grant. The expected volatility is based
on
the historical volatility of the Company’s stock price. These factors could
change in the future, affecting the determination of stock-based compensation
expense in future periods.

As
of
September 30, 2006, there was approximately $22,179 of total unrecognized
compensation cost related to employee and director stock option compensation
arrangements. That cost is expected to be recognized on a straight-line basis
over the next 1.50 years. The total fair value of shares vested during the
six
months ended September 30, 2006 was $70,576.
As
a
result of adopting SFAS 123(R) on April 1, 2006, the Company’s loss before
income taxes and net loss for the six months ended September 30, 2006 was
approximately $39,796 lower than if it had continued to account for share-based
compensation under APB Opinion No. 25. Basic and diluted net loss per

Income
Taxes
The
Company accounts for income taxes in accordance with SFAS No. 109, Accounting
for Income Taxes.
Under
the asset and liability method of SFAS 109, deferred tax assets and liabilities
are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences
between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and
liabilities and their respective tax bases. Deferred tax assets and liabilities
are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in
the
years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or
settled. Under SFAS No. 109, the effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities
of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes
the
enactment date. A valuation allowance is provided for certain deferred tax
assets if it is more likely than not that the Company will not realize tax
assets through future operations. The Company is a subchapter “C” Corporation
and files a federal income tax return. The Company files separate state income
tax returns for California and Nevada.

Basic
and Diluted Loss Per Share
The
Company has adopted SFAS No. 128, Earnings
Per Share
(see
Note 6).
Basic
loss per common share is computed by dividing the net loss available to common
stockholders by the weighted average number of shares outstanding for the
period. Diluted loss per share is computed by dividing net loss by the weighted
average shares outstanding assuming all dilutive potential common shares were
issued. Basic and diluted loss per share are the same as the effect of stock
options and warrants on loss per share are anti-dilutive and thus not included
in the diluted loss per share calculation. The impact under the treasury stock
method of dilutive stock options and warrants would have resulted in an decrease
of 872,835 shares for the six month period ended September 30, 2006 and an
increase of 3,255,211 shares for the six month period ended September 30, 2005.
Recent
Accounting Pronouncements
In
May 2005, the FASB issued SFAS No. 154, Accounting
Changes and Error Corrections,
a
replacement of APB Opinion No. 20, Accounting
Changes,
and
Statement No. 3, Reporting
Accounting Changes in Interim Financial Statements.
SFAS
No. 154 changes the requirements for the accounting for and reporting of a
change in accounting principle. Previously, most voluntary changes in accounting
principles were required recognition via a cumulative effect adjustment within
net income of the period of the change. SFAS No. 154 requires retrospective
application to prior periods’ financial statements, unless it is impracticable
to determine either the period-specific effects or the cumulative effect of
the
change. SFAS No. 154 is effective for accounting changes and correction of
errors made in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2005; however,
SFAS No. 154 does not change the transition provisions of any existing
accounting pronouncements. The adoption of SFAS No. 154 did not have a
material effect on the Company’s financial position, results of operations or
cash flows.

Indemnities
and Guarantees
The
Company has made certain indemnities and guarantees, under which it may be
required to make payments to a guaranteed or indemnified party, in relation
to
certain actions or transactions. The Company indemnifies its directors,
officers, employees and agents, as permitted under the laws of the states of
California and Nevada. In connection with its facility lease, the Company has
indemnified its lessor for certain claims arising from the use of the facility.
In connection with its business merger, the Company has indemnified the merger
candidate for certain claims arising from the failure of the Company to perform
any of its representations or obligations under the agreements. The duration
of
the guarantees and indemnities varies, and is generally tied to the life of
the
agreement. These guarantees and indemnities do not provide for any limitation
of
the maximum potential future payments the Company could be obligated to make.
Historically, the Company has not been obligated nor incurred any payments
for
these obligations and, therefore, no liabilities have been recorded for these
indemnities and guarantees in the accompanying balance sheet.
NOTE
4 - NOTES PAYABLE
On
May
12, 2006, the Company arranged for short term financing of $175,000, pursuant
to
a Loan Agreement and related Secured Promissory Note with Ventana Group, LLC.
Disbursements to the Company under the Loan Agreement are based on achievement
of milestones reached towards finalizing a long term equity financing agreement.
As of September 30, 2006, the Company had received $80,000 of funds and had
accrued $6,710 of interest payable under this Loan Agreement. The note is
secured by machinery and equipment owned by the Company. Per the terms of the
note, interest on the unpaid principal balance of the note is accrued at a
monthly rate of 2% and is payable together with all outstanding principal on
February 10, 2007.
The
Company has a non-interest bearing note payable to a third party lender for
$77,304, which was due in April 2003. The Company is scheduled to make monthly
payments of $2,000 as agreed with the third party lender. As of September
30,
2006, the remaining unpaid balance was $59,440.
As
of
September 30, 2006, the Company had $1,362,000 in outstanding unsecured
indebtedness owed to five related parties including current and former members
of the board of directors representing working capital advances made to the
Company from February 2001 through March 2005. These notes bear interest at
the
rate of 6% per annum and provide for total combined monthly principal payments
which began April 1, 2006 of $2,500. The monthly principal payments are
scheduled to increase by $2,500 every six months to a combined maximum of
$10,000. Any remaining unpaid principal and accrued interest is due at maturity
on various dates through March 1, 2015.

5 - EQUITY
In
April

In
April
2006, the Company entered into an Agency Agreement with a broker to raise funds
in a private placement offering of common stock under Regulation D. During
the
six months ended September 30, 2006, in connection with this agreement, 205,000
shares of the Company’s common stock were sold to investors at an average price
of $1.06 per share for proceeds of $188,790 to the Company, net of issuance
costs of $28,210.
During
the six months ended September 30, 2006 and 2005, compensation expense from
the
vesting of options issued to employees and non-employees totaled $70,576 and
$17,280, respectively, and has been included in selling, general and
administrative expenses in the accompanying consolidated statements of
operations (see Note 2).
On
August
3, 2006, the Company issued a total of 846,750 warrants to purchase shares
of
the Company’s common stock to various consultants, board members, and employees.
The Company has determined the fair value of the issued warrants, based on
the
Black-Scholes pricing model, to be $839,755 as of the date of grant. The
assumptions used under the Black-Scholes pricing model included: a risk free
rate of 4.82%; volatility of 233%; an expected exercise term of 5 years; and
no
annual dividend rate. The fair market value of the warrants has been recorded
as
consulting and compensation expense and is included in selling, general and
administrative expenses for the three and six months ended September 30,
2006.

November 10, 2006 the board approved to extend the expiration of the Company’s

modification to the stock options, the Company revised the fair value of these
stock-based awards to employees and directors using the Black-Scholes option
pricing model in accordance with SFAS 123 (R) resulting in an additional
$98,021 of general and administrative expense to be recognized during the third
quarter ending December 31, 2006.

The
Company cautions readers that important facts and factors described in this
Management’s Discussion and Analysis or Plan of Operation and elsewhere in this
document sometimes have affected, and in the future could affect, the Company’s
actual results, and could cause the Company’s actual results during fiscal year
2007 and beyond to differ materially from those expressed in any forward-looking
statements made by, or on behalf of the Company.
Going
Concern
As
reported in the Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm on
the
Company’s March 31, 2006 and 2005 financial statements, the Company has incurred
recurring losses from operations and has a stockholders’ deficit. These factors,
among others, raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as
a going concern.
There
are
significant uncertainties which negatively affect the Company’s operations.
These are principally related to (i) the limited distribution network for the
Company’s reusable product line, (ii) the early stage development of the
Company’s one-way product, (iii) the absence of any commitment or firm orders
from key customers in the Company’s target markets for the reusable or the
one-way shippers, (iv) the success in bringing products concurrently under
development to market with the Company’s key customers. Moreover, there is no
assurance as to when, if ever, the Company will be able to conduct the Company’s
operations on a profitable basis. The Company’s limited sales to date for the
Company’s reusable product, the lack of any purchase requirements in the
existing distribution agreements and those currently under negotiations, make
it
impossible to identify any trends in the Company’s business prospects. There is
no assurance the Company will be able to generate sufficient revenues or sell
any equity securities to generate sufficient funds when needed, or whether
such
funds, if available, will be obtained on terms satisfactory to the
Company.
The
Company has not generated significant revenues from operations and has no
assurance of any future significant revenues. The Company incurred net losses
of
$1,110,617 and $492,917 for the three month periods ended September 30, 2006
and
2005, respectively and net losses of $1,380,188 and $883,851 for the six month
periods ended September 30, 2006 and 2005, respectively. In addition, at
September 30, 2006 the Company’s accumulated deficit was $8,419,079 and the
Company had negative working capital of $587,407. The Company’s management
recognizes that the Company must obtain additional capital for the further
development and launch of the one-way product and the eventual achievement
of
sustained profitable operations.
We
anticipate that unless we are able to raise or generate proceeds of at least
$3,000,000 within the next two to six months, although operations will continue,
we will be unable to fully execute our business plan, which will result in
us
not growing at the desired rate. Should this situation occur, management is
committed to operating on a smaller scale until generated revenues or future
funding can support expansion.
Page
22
In
order
to continue as a going concern, the Company’s management has begun taking the
following steps:
1) |
Continuing
to aggressively pursue alternative sources for significant long-term
funding of approximately $3,000,000 to $5,000,000 to support the
launch of
the one-way product line.
|
2) |
Obtain
additional capital through a private placement offering, initiated
in
October 2006, of common stock under Regulation D. Management anticipates
that the proceeds from this offering will provide over 6 to 9 months
of
operating capital.
|
3) |
Continuing
to maintain minimal operating expenditures through stringent cost
containment measures. The Company’s largest expenses relate to personnel
and meeting the legal and reporting requirements of a public
company.
|
4) |
Utilizing
part-time consultants and asking employees to manage multiple roles
and
responsibilities whenever possible to keep operating costs
low.
|
5) |
Continuing
to require that key employees and the Company’s Board of Directors receive
Company stock in lieu of cash as all or part of their compensation
in an
effort to minimize monthly cash flow. With this strategy, the Company
has
established a critical mass of experienced business professionals
capable
of taking the Company forward.
|
6) |
Maintaining
current levels for sales, marketing, engineering, scientific and
operating
personnel and cautiously and gradually adding critical and key personnel
only as necessary to help expand the Company’s product offerings in the
reusable and one-way cryogenic shipping markets, leading it to additional
revenues and profits.
|
7) |
Adding
other expenses such as customer service, administrative and operations
staff only commensurate with increased
revenues.
|
8) |
Focusing
current research and development efforts only on development, production
and distribution of the one-way
shipper.
|
Research
and Development
Due
to
the ongoing nature of the research associated with the one-way shipper, the
Company is unable to ascertain with certainty the total estimated completion
dates and costs associated with all phases of this research. As with any
research effort, there is uncertainty and risk associated with whether these
efforts will produce results in a timely manner so as to enhance the Company’s
market position. For the six months ended September 30, 2006 and 2005, research
and development costs were $39,059 and $144,552, respectively. Company sponsored
research and development costs related to future products and redesign of
present products are expensed as incurred and include such costs as salaries,
employee benefits, costs determined utilizing the Black-Scholes option-pricing
model for options issued to the Scientific Advisory Board and prototype design
and materials costs.
Critical
Accounting Policies
The
Company’s consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance
with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
The preparation of these financial statements requires us to make estimates
and
judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues
and
expenses, and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. The
Company bases its estimates on historical experience and on various other
assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the
results of which form the basis of making judgments about the carrying values
of
assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual
results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or
conditions, however, in the past the estimates and assumptions have been
materially accurate and have not required any significant changes. Specific
sensitivity of each of the estimates and assumptions to change based on other
outcomes that are reasonably likely to occur and would have a material effect
is
identified individually in each of the discussions of the critical accounting
policies described below. Should the Company experience significant changes
in
the estimates or assumptions which would cause a material change to the amounts
used in the preparation of the Company’s financial statements, material
quantitative information will be made available to investors as soon as it
is
reasonably available.
Page
23
The
Company believes the following critical accounting policies, among others,
affect the Company’s more significant judgments and estimates used in the
preparation of the Company’s financial statements:
Allowance
for Doubtful Accounts. The
Company maintains allowances for doubtful accounts for estimated losses
resulting from the inability of the Company’s customers to make required
payments. The allowance for doubtful accounts is based on specific
identification of customer accounts and the Company’s best estimate of the
likelihood of potential loss, taking into account such factors as the financial
condition and payment history of major customers. The Company evaluates the
collectibility of the Company’s receivables at least quarterly. Such costs of
allowance for doubtful accounts are subject to estimates based on the historical
actual costs of bad debt experienced, total accounts receivable amounts, age
of
accounts receivable and any knowledge of the customers’ ability or inability to
pay outstanding balances. If the financial condition of the Company’s customers
were to deteriorate, resulting in impairment of their ability to make payments,
additional allowances may be required. The differences could be material and
could significantly impact cash flows from operating activities.
Inventory.
The
Company writes down its inventory for estimated obsolescence or unmarketable
inventory equal to the difference between the cost of inventory and the
estimated market value based upon assumptions about future demand, future
pricing and market conditions. Inventory reserve costs are subject to estimates
made by the Company based on historical experience, inventory quantities, age
of
inventory and any known expectations for product changes. If actual future
demands, future pricing or market conditions are less favorable than those
projected by management, additional inventory write-downs may be required and
the differences could be material. Such differences might significantly impact
cash flows from operating activities. Once established, write-downs are
considered permanent adjustments to the cost basis of the obsolete or
unmarketable inventories.
Impairment
of Long-Lived Assets.
The
Company assesses the recoverability of its long-lived assets by determining
whether the depreciation and amortization of long-lived assets over their
remaining lives can be recovered through projected undiscounted cash flows.
The
amount of long-lived asset impairment is measured based on fair value and is
charged to operations in the period in which long-lived asset impairment is
determined by management. Manufacturing fixed assets are subject to obsolescence
potential as result of changes in customer demands, manufacturing process
changes and changes in materials used. The Company is not currently aware of
any
such changes that would cause impairment to the value of its manufacturing
fixed
assets.
Page
24
Accrued
Warranty Costs.
The
Company estimates the costs of the standard warranty, included with the reusable
shippers at no additional cost to the customer for a period up to one year.
These estimated costs are recorded as accrued warranty costs at the time of
product sale. These estimated costs are subject to estimates made by the Company
based on the historical actual warranty costs, number of products returned
for
warranty repair and length of warranty coverage.
Revenue
Recognition. Product
sales revenue is recognized upon passage of title to customers, typically upon
shipment of product. Any provision for discounts and estimated returns are
accounted for in the period the related sales are recorded. Products are
generally sold with right of warranty repair for a one year period but with
no
right of return. Estimated costs of warranty repairs are recorded as accrued
warranty costs as described above. Products shipped to customers for speculation
purposes are not considered sold and no revenue is recorded by the Company
until
sales acceptance is acknowledged by the customer.
Stock-Based
Compensation. The
Company accounts for equity issuances to non-employees in accordance with
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 123, Accounting
for Stock Based Compensation,
and
Emerging Issues Task Force ("EITF") Issue No. 96-18, Accounting
for Equity Instruments that are Issued to Other Than Employees for Acquiring,
or
in Conjunction with Selling, Goods and Services.
All
transactions in which goods or services are the consideration received for
the
issuance of equity instruments are accounted for based on the fair value of
the
consideration received or the fair value of the equity instrument issued,
whichever is more reliably measurable. The measurement date used to determine
the fair value of the equity instrument issued is the earlier of the date on
which the third-party performance is complete or the date on which it is
probable that performance will occur.
Prior
to
April 1, 2006, the Company accounted for stock-based compensation issued to
employees using the intrinsic value method of accounting prescribed by
Accounting Principles Board ("APB") Opinion No. 25, Accounting
for Stock Issued to Employees
and
related pronouncements. Under this method, compensation expense was recognized
over the respective vesting period based on the excess, on the date of grant,
of
the fair value of our common stock over the grant price, net of forfeitures.
Deferred stock-based compensation was amortized on a straight-line basis over
the vesting period of each grant.
On
April 1, 2006, the Company adopted SFAS No. 123(R), Share-Based
Payment,
which
requires the measurement and recognition of compensation expense for all
share-based payment awards made to employees and directors related to the
Company’s 2000 Equity Incentive Plan based on estimated fair values. The Company
adopted SFAS No. 123(R) using the modified prospective transition method,
which requires the application of the accounting standard as of April 1,
2006, the first day of our fiscal year 2007. The consolidated financial
statements as of and for the six months ended September 30, 2006 reflect
the impact of adopting SFAS No. 123(R). In accordance with the modified
prospective transition method, the consolidated financial statements for prior
periods have not been restated to reflect, and do not include, the impact of
SFAS No. 123(R). The value of the portion of the award that is ultimately
expected to vest is recognized as expense over the requisite service periods
in
our consolidated statement of operations. As stock-based compensation expense
recognized in the consolidated statement of operations for the nine months
ended
September 30, 2006 is based on awards ultimately expected to vest, it has
been reduced for estimated forfeitures. SFAS No. 123(R) requires
forfeitures to be estimated at the time of grant and revised, if necessary,
in
subsequent periods if actual forfeitures differ from those estimates. The
estimated average forfeiture rate for the nine months ended September 30,
2006 was zero as the Company has not had a significant history of
forfeitures.

25
Employee
stock-based compensation expense recognized under SFAS No. 123(R) for the
six months ended September 30, 2006 was $70,576, determined by the
Black-Scholes valuation model. As of September 30, 2006, total unrecognized
compensation cost, related to unvested stock options was $22,179, which is
expected to be recognized as an expense over a weighted-average period of 6
months. See Note 2 to the Company’s consolidated financial statements for
additional information.
Results
of Operations
Three
months ended September 30, 2006 compared to three months ended September 30,
2005:
Net
Sales. During
the three months ended September 30, 2006, the Company generated $8,214 from
reusable shipper sales compared to revenues of $23,723 in the same period of
the
prior year, a decrease of $15,509 (65%). This revenue decrease is primarily
due
to the Company’s shift in its sales and marketing focus during the third quarter
of the Company’s fiscal year 2006 to the introduction of the one-way shipper,
anticipated for release in the fourth quarter of the Company’s fiscal year 2007,
into the biotech industry sector. Additionally, cash constraints slowed
production activities and average sales unit prices during the three month
period ended September 30, 2006 were lower than that of the same period of
the
prior year due to the change in the industry sales mix.
Gross
Profit/Loss. Gross
loss for the three month period ended September 30, 2006 decreased by $61,693
(71%) to $25,220 compared to $86,913 for the three month period ended September
30, 2005. The decrease in the gross loss is mainly attributable to the decreased
sales volume as well as cost
containment measures initiated over the past nine months.
Cost
of
sales for the three month period ended September 30, 2006 decreased $77,202
(70%) to $33,434 from $110,636 for the three month period ended September 30,
2005 primarily as the result of lower sales volumes as well as cost containment
measures initiated over the past nine months. During both periods cost of sales
exceeded sales due to plant under utilization.
Selling,
General and Administrative Expenses. Selling,
general and administrative expenses increased by $720,450 (225%) to $1,040,060
for the three month period ended September 30, 2006 as compared to $319,610
for
the three month period ended September 30, 2005 due mainly to: (i) $839,755
of
compensation expense related to warrants granted to consultants and employees
offset by, (ii) a decrease in sales and marketing costs of $84,619 (70%) related
to decreased trade shows, travel and consultant expenses, and (iii) a decrease
in general and administrative costs of $34,686 (18%) related to decreased
regulatory costs including decreased legal and accounting fees related to the
prior year’s share exchange agreement and public filing costs.
Research
and Development Expenses. Research
and development expenses decreased by $45,248 (69%) to $19,950 for the three
month period ended September 30, 2006 as compared to $65,198 for the three
month
period ended September 30, 2005 related to the significant decrease in the
development activity on the one-way product which was experienced in the prior
year.
Net
Loss. As
a
result of the factors described above, the net loss for the three months ended
September 30, 2006 increased by $617,700 (125%) to $1,110,617 or ($0.04) per
share compared to $492,917 or ($0.02) per share for the three months ended
September 30, 2005.

Six
months ended September 30, 2006 compared to six months ended September 30,
2005:
Net
Sales. During
the six months ended September 30, 2006, the Company generated $26,675 from
reusable shipper sales compared to revenues of $146,216 in the same period
of
the prior year, a decrease of $119,541 (82%). This revenue decrease is primarily
due to the Company’s shift in its sales and marketing focus during the third
quarter of the Company’s fiscal year 2006 to the introduction of the one-way
shipper, anticipated for release in the third quarter of the Company’s fiscal
year 2007, into the biotech industry sector. Additionally, cash constraints
slowed production activities and average sales unit prices during the six month
period ended September 30, 2006 were lower than that of the same period of
the
prior year due to the change in the industry sales mix.
Gross
Profit/Loss. Gross
loss for the six month period ended September 30, 2006 decreased by $62,277
(58%) to $46,099 compared to $108,376 for the six month period ended September
30, 2005. The decrease in the gross loss is mainly attributable to the lower
sales volumes as well as to the decreased cost of sales as a result of cost
containment measures initiated over the past nine months.
Cost
of
sales for the six month period ended September 30, 2006 decreased $181,818
(71%)
to $72,774 from $254,592 for the six month period ended September 30, 2005
primarily as the result of lower sales volumes as well as from cost containment
measures in the fixed manufacturing costs initiated over the past nine months.
During both periods cost of sales exceeded sales due to plant under utilization.
Selling,
General and Administrative Expenses. Selling,
general and administrative expenses increased by $654,993 (111%) to $1,243,367
for the six month period ended September 30, 2006 as compared to $588,374 for
the six month period ended September 30, 2005 due mainly to: (i) an increase
in
compensation expense related to warrants granted to consultants and employees
offset by, (ii) a decrease in sales and marketing costs of $128,043 (64%)
related to decreased trade shows, travel and consultant expenses, and (iii)
a
decrease in general and administrative costs of $56,719 (15%) related to
decreased regulatory costs including decreased legal and accounting fees related
to the prior year’s share exchange agreement and public filing
costs.
Research
and Development Expenses. Research
and development expenses decreased by $105,493 (73%) to $39,059 for the six
month period ended September 30, 2006 as compared to $144,552 for the six month
period ended September 30, 2005 related to the significant decrease in the
development activity on the one-way product which was experienced in the prior
year.
Net
Loss. As
a
result of the factors described above, the net loss for the six months ended
September 30, 2006 increased by $496,337 (56%) to $1,380,188 or ($0.05) per
share compared to $883,851 or ($0.03) per share for the six months ended
September 30, 2005.
Assets
and Liabilities
At
September 30, 2006, the Company had total assets of $252,225 compared to total
assets of $293,505 at March 31, 2006, a decrease of $41,280 (14%). Cash was
$10,562 as of September 30, 2006, an increase of $5,839 (124%) from $4,723
in
cash on hand as of March 31, 2006. During the six month period ended September
30, 2006, cash provided by financing activities of $263,790 was offset by cash
used in operations of $257,951. As of November 13, 2006, the Company’s cash on
hand was approximately $15,500.
Page
27
Net
accounts receivable at September 30, 2006 was $4,375, a decrease of $17,931
(80%) from $22,306 at March 31, 2006. This decrease is due to the decreased
sales during the six months ended September 30, 2006 in addition to the
collection of customer balances over 90 days. These decreases in accounts
receivable were partially offset by a decrease to the bad debt reserve.
Net
inventories decreased $15,135 (8%), to $175,186 as of September 30, 2006, from
$190,321 as of March 31, 2006. The decrease in inventories is due to the slow
down of production activities due to the expected introduction of the new
one-way shipper.
Net
fixed
assets decreased to $45,801 at September 30, 2006 from $57,520 at March 30,
2006
as a result of depreciation in the amount of $11,719 for the six months ended
September 30, 2006. No new fixed assets were acquired during the six months
ended September 30, 2006.
Intangible
assets decreased to $7,031 at September 30, 2006 from $9,365 at March 30, 2006
as a result of amortization in the amount of $2,334 for the six months ended
September 30, 2006.
Total
liabilities at September 30, 2006 were $2,680,828, an increase of $237,287
(10%)
from $2,443,541 as of March 31, 2006. Accounts payable was $301,053 at September
30, 2006, an increase of $77,983 (35%) from $223,070 at March 31, 2006. The
accounts payable increase is primarily due to the increased consultant, legal
and accounting fees payable resulting from delays in payments due to cash
restrictions which were partially offset by decreased payables due to material
suppliers affected by the payment cycle of trade payables relating to the
decrease in inventory. Accrued expenses decreased $14,716 (13%) to $97,345
at
September 30, 2006 from $112,061 at March 31, 2006, resulting from the payment
of accrued legal expenses. Accrued warranty costs decreased $1,377 (2%) to
$58,155 at September 30, 2006 from $59,532 due to $3,000 of product replacement
costs charged to the accrual offset by $1,623 charged to the accrual for product
sales during the six month period ended September 30, 2006. Accrued salaries
were $352,425 at September 30, 2006, an increase of $51,233 (17%) from $301,192
at March 31, 2006. This is due to the increase in deferred salaries for
management during the six months ended September 30, 2006.
In
May
2006, the Company signed a loan agreement for short term funding of up to
$175,000 for a period of 90 days in anticipation of securing more significant
long-term funding. Subsequently, on November 9, 2006, the terms of the note
were
extended for an additional 90 days. As of September 30, 2006, the Company had
borrowed $80,000 against this short-term note and accrued related interest
of
$6,710.
Current
portion of related party notes payable increased $37,500 to $82,500 at September
30, 2006 due to the delay in payment of the scheduled payments for July, August
and September 2006, as well as the scheduled increase in the payments on these
notes beginning April 1, 2007 as specified in the terms of the notes. On October
27, 2006, the Company paid the July 2006 payments due on these notes prior
to
the 120 day payment default date per the terms of the notes. Current portion
of
notes payable of $24,000 at September 30, 2006 had no change from March 31,
2006. Long-term related party notes payable decreased $46 to $1,643,200 at
September 30, 2006 from $1,643,246 at March 31, 2006 due to interest accrued
of
$44,954 for the six month period ended September 30, 2006 offset by payments
made of $7,500 against the notes and by the $37,500 increase in the amount
allocated to the current portion of related party notes payable. Long-term
notes
payable remained unchanged at $35,440 from March 31, 2006 to September 30,
2006.

Liquidity
and Capital Resources
As
of
September 30, 2006, the Company’s current liabilities of $786,600 exceeded its
current assets of $199,393 by $587,407. Approximately 14% of current liabilities
represent accrued salaries for executives who have opted to defer taking
salaries until the Company has achieved positive operating cash
flows.
Total
assets decreased to $252,225 at September 30, 2006 from $293,505 at March 31,
2006 as a result of funds used in operating activities, partially offset by
cash
received from the short term loan proceeds and the proceeds from the sale of
common stock.
The
Company’s total outstanding indebtedness increased to $2,680,828 at September
30, 2006 from $2,443,541 at March 31, 2006 primarily from the additional
short-term note payable secured during the six months ended September 30, 2006,
increases in accrued interest for notes payable, increased accrued salaries,
and
the increase in accounts payable related to deferred consultant
fees.
The
Company does not expect to incur any material capital expenditures until
management is able to secure more significant long-term funding for the launch
of the new one-way product line or sales increase materially.
In
April
2006, the Company entered into an agency agreement with a broker to raise funds
in a private placement offering of common stock under Regulation D. In
connection with this agreement, and as of September 30, 2006, 205,000 shares
of
the Company’s common stock were sold to investors at an average price of $1.06
per share for proceeds of $188,790 to the Company, net of issuance costs of
$28,210.
Item
3. Controls and Procedures
As
of
September 30, 2006, an evaluation was carried out under the supervision and
with
the participation of the Company’s management, including our Chief Executive
Officer and our Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design
and
operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule
13a-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934). Based upon that
evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer
concluded that the design and operation of these disclosure controls and
procedures were effective. No significant changes were made in our internal
controls or in other factors that could significantly affect these controls
subsequent to September 30, 2006.
(a)
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures. The Company carried out an
evaluation under the supervision and with the participation of the Company’s
management, including the Company’s Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”) and our
Chief Financial Officer (“CFO”), of the effectiveness of the Company’s
disclosure controls and procedures. Based upon that evaluation, the CEO and
CFO
concluded that as of September 30, 2006, our disclosure controls and procedures
were effective in timely alerting them to the material information relating
to
the Company (or the Company’s consolidated subsidiaries) required to be included
in the Company’s periodic filings with the SEC, subject to the various
limitation on effectiveness set forth below under the heading , “LIMITATIONS ON
THE EFFECTIVENESS OF INTERNAL CONTROLS,” such that the information relating to
the Company, required to be disclosed in SEC reports (i) is recorded, processed,
summarized and reported within the time periods specified in SEC rules and
forms, and (ii) is accumulated and communicated to the Company’s management,
including our CEO and CFO, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding
required disclosure.

(b)
Changes in internal control over financial reporting. There has been no change
in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting that occurred during
the fiscal quarter ended September 30, 2006 that has materially affected, or
is
reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over
financial reporting.
LIMITATIONS
ON THE EFFECTIVENESS OF INTERNAL CONTROLS
The
Company’s management, including the CEO and CFO, does not expect that our
disclosure controls and procedures on our internal control over financial
reporting will necessarily prevent all fraud and material error. An internal
control system, no matter now well conceived and operated, can provide only
reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system
are met. Further, the design of the control system must reflect the fact that
there are resource constraints, and the benefits of controls can provide
absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any,
within the Company have been detected. These inherent limitations include the
realities that judgments in decision-making can be faulty, and that breakdowns
can occur because of simple error or mistake. Additionally, controls can be
circumvented by the individual acts of some persons, by collusion of two or
more
people, or by management override of the internal control. The design of any
system of controls also is based in part upon certain assumptions about the
likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design
will
succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions.
Over time, control may become inadequate because of changes in conditions,
and/or the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may
deteriorate.
