AMERITYRE CORPORATION

Notes to the Unaudited Financial Statements

March 31, 2008 and June 30, 2007


NOTE 1 - BASIS OF FINANCIAL STATEMENT PRESENTATION


The accompanying unaudited condensed financial statements have been prepared by us pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission.  Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America have been condensed or omitted in accordance with such rules and regulations.  The information furnished in the interim condensed financial statements includes normal recurring adjustments and reflects all adjustments, which, in the opinion of management, are necessary for a fair presentation of such financial statements.  Although we believe the disclosures and information presented are adequate to make the information not misleading. These interim condensed financial statements should be read in conjunction with our most recent audited financial statements and notes thereto included in our June 30, 2007 Annual Report on Form 10-K.  Operating results for the three and nine months ended March 31, 2008 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the current fiscal year ending June 30, 2008.


NOTE 2 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES


Stock Based-Compensation Expense


On July 1, 2005, we adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123 (revised 2004), “Share-Based Payment,” (“SFAS 123(R)”) which requires the measurement and recognition of compensation expense for all share-based payments to employees and directors including employee stock options  and stock purchases related to the Company’s employee stock option and award plans based on estimated fair values. SFAS 123(R) supersedes our previous accounting under Accounting Principles Board Option No. 25, “Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees” (“APB25”) for periods beginning in fiscal 2006. In March 2005, the Securities and Exchange Commission issued Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 107 (“SAB 107”) relating to SFAS 123(R). We have applied the provisions of SAB 107 in our adoption of SFAS 123(R).


We adopted SFAS 123(R) using the modified prospective transition method, which requires the application of the accounting standard as of July 1, 2005, the first day of our fiscal year 2006. Our financial statements as of and for the three and nine month periods ended March 31, 2008 and 2007 reflect the impact of SFAS 123(R).  Stock-based compensation expense recognized under SFAS 123(R) for the nine month periods ended March 31, 2008 and 2007 was $265,400 and $576,195, respectively, related to employee stock options issued during the respective periods.


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 our Statement of Operations. Stock-based compensation expense recognized in our Statements of Operations for the three and nine month periods ended March 31, 2008 and 2007 assumes all awards will vest, therefore no reduction has been made for estimated forfeitures.


Basic and Fully Diluted Net Loss Per Share


Basic and Fully Diluted net loss per share is computed using the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period.

AMERITYRE CORPORATION

Notes to the Unaudited Financial Statements

March 31, 2008 and June 30, 2007


NOTE 2 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)


Liquidity


Our financial statements are prepared using generally accepted accounting principles applicable to a going concern which contemplates the realization of assets and liquidation of liabilities in the normal course of business. We have historically incurred significant losses which have resulted in a total retained deficit of $49,923,069 at March 31, 2008.  Although for the fiscal years ended June 30, 2005, 2006 and 2007, we have losses from operations and have used cash in our operating activities in excess of our revenues, we have had little, if any, debt and have consistently had a positive net tangible book value. In connection with the preparation of our financial statements we have analyzed our cash needs for fiscal 2008. Based on this analysis, we concluded that our available cash would be sufficient to meet our current working capital, capital expenditure and other cash requirements for fiscal 2008, and a substantial portion of fiscal 2009. However in the event of a cash shortfall we believe we would need additional capital.  At March 31, 2008, we had approximately $2.67 million available to finance our operations. In an effort to increase revenues, we have recently expanded our product lines and begun the sale of polyurethane foam tire fill and solid polyurethane elastomer tires. Although we believe that we will successfully implement our business plan to provide for additional revenues to offset operating costs, management cannot give any assurances that it will be able to do so or that we will ever operate profitably.  Our business plan assumes, among other things, that our revenues will increase from the sale of the new product lines, our material cost will remain constant or decrease, our expense from operations will continue at a rate similar to the rate we experienced for nine month period ended March 31, 2008, and that we will increase our product pricing.   Until such time as our net income exceeds our expense from operation, it is possible that we may need additional capital. If necessary, we may seek to raise additional capital through the issuance of debt or equity securities. Our ability to obtain financing through the offer and sale of our securities is subject to market conditions and other factors beyond our control. We cannot assure you that we will be able to obtain financing on favorable terms or at all.


Income Tax


We file federal income tax returns in the U.S. and state income tax returns in those state jurisdictions where we are required to file.  With few exceptions, we are no longer subject to U.S. federal, state or and local income tax examinations by tax authorities for years before June 30, 2004.

We adopted the provisions of FASB Interpretation No. 48, Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes, on July 1, 2007, the first day of our current fiscal year.  As a result of the implementation of Interpretation 48, no adjustment should be made for unrecognized tax benefits.


There are no tax positions included in the balance at March 31, 2008 for which the ultimate deductibility is highly certain but for which there is uncertainty about the timing of such deductibility.  Because of the impact of deferred tax accounting, other than interest and penalties, the disallowance of the shorter deductibility period would not affect the annual effective tax rate but would accelerate the payment of cash to the taxing authority to an earlier period.

Our policy is to recognize accrued interest related to unrecognized tax benefits in interest expense and penalties in operating expenses.  


NOTE 3 - STOCK OPTIONS AND WARRANTS


General Option Information


During the nine month period ended March 31, 2008, we granted options to acquire an aggregate of 250,000 shares of our common stock to certain employees and consultants in connection with their employment (the “Employment Options”). The Employment Options granted during the nine month period ended March 31, 2008 vest annually over a period of one to two years based on the employee’s continued employment. The exercise price for the Employment Options granted during the period was $4.04 per share.  During the nine month period ended March 31, 2007, we did not grant any options. We use the Black-Scholes model to value stock options. The Black-Scholes model requires the use of employee exercise behavior data and the use of a number of assumptions, including volatility of our stock

price, the weighted average risk-free interest rate, and the weighted average expected life of the options. Because we do not pay dividends, the dividend rate variable in the Black-Scholes model is zero. We estimated the fair value of the stock options at the grant date based on the following weighted average assumptions:

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


This discussion and analysis contains statements of a forward-looking nature relating to future events or our future financial performance or financial condition.  Such statements are only predictions and the actual events or results may differ materially from the results discussed in or implied by the forward-looking statements. The historical results set forth in this discussion and analysis are not necessarily indicative of trends with respect to any actual or projected future financial performance.  This discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and the related notes thereto included elsewhere in this report.


Introduction and Recent Developments


Since our inception in 1995, we have been engaged in the research and development of technologies related to the formulation of polyurethane compounds and the manufacturing process for producing tires constructed of polyurethane.  We believe we have developed unique polyurethane formulations that, when used in tire applications, substantially simplify the production process and allow for the creation of products with superior performance characteristics, including abrasion resistance and load-bearing capabilities, than conventional rubber tires.  We also believe that the manufacturing processes we have developed to produce polyurethane tires are more efficient than traditional tire manufacturing processes, in part because our polyurethane compounds do not require the multiple processing steps, extreme heat, and high pressure that are necessary to cure rubber.  Using our polyurethane technologies, we believe tires can be produced that last longer, are less susceptible to failure and offer improved fuel economy.  

 

We are concentrating on five principal product areas: tire fill, low duty cycle tires, solid tires, composite tires and pneumatic tires. Effective April 2, 2008, we hired Michael Kapral as Vice President of Marketing. Mr. Kapral has an extensive 25 year career in the tire and tire products industry will oversee our marketing and sales efforts for the five principal product areas. Our most recent activities in these areas are set forth below:


Tire fill - In January 2008 we announced the formation of an internal sales group to specifically target suppliers and OEM (original equipment manufacturer) users of tire fill in the construction, industrial and mining applications. We showcased our Amerifill™ light weight fill material at two industry trade shows held in Las Vegas during February and March 2008 and expect to recognize the first significant revenues from this product during the fiscal quarter ending June 30, 2008. In addition, we have been working with a European marketing partner to commence sales of this product in Europe.


Low duty tires - In connection with our low duty cycle product area, in February 2008 we announced that Amigo Mobility, a leading manufacturer of mobility products, will be using our Flatfree(TM) polyurethane tires as original equipment on the Amigo Mobility SmartShopper.  We estimate that we will initially supply Amigo Mobility with approximately 25,000 tires per year.  In March 2008, we acquired the manufacturing assets of a well known manufacturer of polyurethane foam tires, Kik Technology, Inc. (“Kik”). The acquisition of the Kik manufacturing assets gives us the ability to produce a broader range of products for the low-duty cycle tire market. We anticipate this transaction will have positive impact on our future foam tire product revenues.


Solid tires – On May 1, 2008, we announced we have initiated commercial production of solid polyurethane elastomer tires.  We announced that we have been awarded the production business by Oxbo International Corporation to supply 15”x 13” solid polyurethane elastomer gage tires for use in farm implements employed in chopping or baling alfalfa or hay. We estimate the first year volume for the 50-lb. gage tire is estimated to be 1,200 units or approximately $200,000 in revenue.  The gage tire represents the first of several solid polyurethane elastomer tire products that we have been developing for the commercial markets. Other potential commercial applications for the solid polyurethane elastomer tires include forklift and aperture tires used in the construction and material handling industry. We have recently demonstrated the capability of making solid polyurethane elastomer forklift tires at the rate of one tire per minute, using our advanced production technology and hope to see these products go commercial in the near future.     


Composite tires – There are multiple applications for use of our polyurethane elastomer material as treads for new or retread tire casings. The first commercial application for this technology is being initiated by Desert Research Technology (“DRT), to manufacture paddle-type sand tires.  DRT expects to commence commercial production of this product during the fiscal quarter ending June 30, 2008 and we will supply DRT with the chemical system necessary to produce the tires. In addition, our licensee, Qingdao Qizhou Rubber Company, Ltd.



14


(“Qingdao”), is nearing completion of a OTR retread facility outside Qingdao, China. Qingdao. Qingdao has represented to us that it expects to have its facility ready for initial production of prototype retread polyurethane OTR mining tires prior to the end of the fiscal quarter ending June 30, 2008.  


Pneumatic tires – Our Arcus® run-flat tire design successfully completed all testing requirements under Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) 139. Successful completion of FMVSS 139 testing on our Arcus® passenger car tire design has been a high priority. Since completing the testing, we have begun discussions with companies that have expressed an interest in licensing our technology, and we have begun to provide them with sample tires. While companies evaluate sample tires, we will focus on finishing the design and development of the manufacturing equipment required to produce the polyurethane road tire in commercial volumes. We are discussing the construction and installation of a pilot manufacturing facility capable of demonstrating this production capability with potential strategic partners.


Factors Affecting Results of Operations

Historically, our operating expenses have exceeded our revenues resulting in net losses. For the reporting period our operating expenses consisted primarily of the following:

·

Cost of sales, which consists primarily of raw materials, components and production of our products, including applied labor costs and benefits expenses, maintenance, facilities and other operating costs associated with the production of our products;

·

Selling, general and administrative expenses, which consist primarily of salaries, commissions and related benefits paid to our employees and related selling and administrative costs including professional fees;  

·

Research and development expenses, which consist primarily of equipment and materials used in the development of our technologies;

·

Consulting expenses, which consist primarily of amounts (both cash and non-cash) paid to third-parties for outside services;

·

Depreciation and amortization expenses which result from the depreciation of our property and equipment, including amortization of our intangible assets; and

·

Amortization of deferred compensation that results from the grant of stock options to our employees.


Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

Our discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations are based upon our unaudited financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The preparation of such statements requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period and the reported amounts of assets and liabilities as of the date of the financial statements. Our estimates are based on historical experience and other assumptions that we consider to be appropriate in the circumstances. However, actual future results may vary from our estimates.


There have been no significant changes during the three months ended March 31, 2008 to the items that we disclosed as our critical accounting policies and estimates in our Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2007.


Seasonality

A substantial majority of our sales are to customers within the United States. As sales have increased, we have experienced increasing levels of seasonality in the sale of our low duty polyurethane foam tires for bicycles and lawn and garden products because sales of these products generally decline during the winter months in many parts of the United States.  Sales of our low duty polyurethane foam tire products generally peak during the spring and summer months resulting in greater sales volumes during the third and fourth quarters of the fiscal year.

Results of Operations

Our management reviews and analyzes several key performance indicators in order to manage our business and assess the quality and potential variability of our revenues and cash flows. These key performance indicators include:

·

Net revenues, which consists of sales revenues and license fees;

·

Sales revenue, net of returns and trade discounts, which is an indicator of our overall business growth and the success of our sales and marketing efforts;

·

Gross profit, which is an indicator of both competitive pricing pressures and the cost of revenues of our products;

·

Growth in our customer base, which is an indicator of the success of our sales efforts; and

·

Distribution of revenue across our products offered.

The following summary table presents a comparison of our results of operations for the three and nine month periods ended March 31, 2008 and 2007 with respect to certain key financial measures.  The comparisons illustrated in the table are discussed in greater detail below.

Three Month Period Ended March 31, 2008 Compared to March 31, 2007

Net revenues.   Sales of our closed-cell polyurethane foam products accounted for all but $50,000 of our net revenues during the three month period ended March 31, 2008. The $50,000 was derived from fees  accrued from third-party licensees for use of our technology.  For the three month period ended March 31, 2008 we had $828,862 of net revenues compared to $723,717 for the same period for 2007.  Net revenues for the three month period ended March 31, 2008 increased by $105,145 or 15%, as compared with 2007 due to an increase in the number of product units sold, offset by a small decrease in license fees.   We anticipate that our sales over the balance of the fiscal year will increase consistent with the trends of our sales over the last several years.  During the three month period ended



16


March 31, 2008 we had $19,634 and $4,061 of returns of our products and trade discounts, respectively, compared to $15,611 and $3,198, respectively, for the same period in 2007.

Cost of revenues.  For the three month period ended March 31, 2008 our total cost of revenues was $563,529, or 68% of net revenues, compared to $457,269, or 63% of net revenues for the same period in 2007.  Excluding $50,000 of licensee revenue with no associated cost of revenues, our cost of revenues as a percentage of net revenues increased to 72% of net revenues for the three months ended March 31, 2008, as compared with 70% for the same period in 2007. The increase in our cost of revenues was a result of increasing cost of chemical raw materials and wheel components. We believe that our cost of revenues can improve if our sales efforts generate additional product orders so that we can take advantage of manufacture efficiencies. We believe we currently have sufficient foam product manufacturing equipment and employees to accomplish a substantial increase in production without incurring a proportionately equivalent increase in labor costs.

Gross Profit.  For the three month period ended March 31, 2008 we had $265,333 of gross profit compared to $266,448 for the same period in 2007.  Gross profit for the three month period ended March 31, 2008 decreased by $1,115, or 0.4%, over the same period in 2007 due primarily to increase in the cost of revenues during the period, as discussed above.  As a result of the increased costs our gross profit margin decreased to 32% in 2008 from 37% for the same period in 2007. We intend to implement product pricing increases beginning in May 2008 to help cover our increased costs and improve our gross profit margin.

Selling, General, and Administrative Expenses.  For the three month period ended March 31, 2008 we had $1,007,785 of SG&A expenses, including the amortization of deferred compensation, compared to $1,363,544 for the same period in 2007.  For the three month period ended March 31, 2008 our SG&A decreased by $355,759, or 26%, as compared with the same period in 2007, due to decreased expenses related to payroll and payroll taxes, travel expenses, sales and marketing costs, and amortization of deferred compensation related to employee stock option grants. We amortized $92,441 of deferred compensation for the three month period ended March 31, 2008 compared to $241,504 for same period in 2007.  We anticipate that SG&A for the balance of the 2008 fiscal year will be consistent with the three months ended March 31, 2008.

Research and Development Expenses.  For the three month period ended March 31, 2008 we had $146,811 of research and development expenses compared to $173,178 for the same period in 2007.  Our research and development expenses for the three month period ended March 31, 2008, decreased by $26,367, or 15%, as compared with the same period in 2007 due primarily to a decrease in outside testing services and testing equipment.  We expect research and development expenses to increase 15% during the balance of the fiscal year ending June 30, 2008 as we identify and pursue research and development projects of additional applications for our polyurethane technology outside the tire industry.

Consulting Expenses.  For the three month period ended March 31, 2008 we had $101,510 in outside consulting expenses.  We had $150,162 in outside consulting expenses for the same period in 2007.  During the balance of the fiscal year ending June 30, 2008 we expect consulting expenses to remain consistent with the three month period ended March 31, 2008.  


Depreciation and Amortization Expenses.  For the three month period ended March 31, 2008 we had $69,482 of depreciation and amortization expenses compared to $92,772 for the same period in 2007.  Our depreciation and amortization expenses for the three month period ended March 31, 2008 decreased by $23,190, or 25%, as compared to the same period in 2007 due primarily to reductions for fully depreciated assets, partially offset by the expense for newly acquired assets during the period.

Net Loss.  For the three month period ended March 31, 2008 we had a net loss of $1,005,316 compared to a net loss of $1,505,091 for the same period in 2007.  Our net loss for the three month period ended March 31, 2008 decreased by $499,775 as compared with the same period in 2007, due primarily to the decreases in our research and development expenses, payroll and payroll taxes, and selling, general and administrative expenses for the three month period ended March 31, 2008, combined with an approximate 14.5% increase in net revenues..



17


Nine Month Period Ended March 31, 2008 Compared to March 31, 2007

Net revenues.   Sales of our closed-cell polyurethane foam products accounted for all but $160,000 of our net revenues during the nine month period ended March 31, 2008. The $160,000 was derived from fees received or accrued from third-party licensees for use of our technology. For the nine month period ended March 31, 2008 we had $2,025,711 of net revenues compared to $1,956,045 for the same period in 2007.  Net revenues for the nine month period ended March 31, 2008 increased by $69,666, or 4%, as compared with 2007, due to  an increase in the number of product units sold during the period offset by a decrease in license fees, as discussed above in the Three Month Period analysis. During the nine month period ended March 31, 2008 we had $31,791 and $10,514 of returns of our products and trade discounts, respectively, compared to $29,503 and $9,689, respectively, for the same period in 2007.

Cost of revenues.  For the nine month period ended March 31, 2008 our total cost of revenues was $1,331,832, or 66% of net revenues, compared to $1,244,468, or 64% of net revenues for the same period in 2007.  Excluding $160,000 of licensee revenue with no associated cost of revenues, our total cost of revenues was 71% of net revenues for the nine months ended March 31, 2008, compared to 71% of net revenues for the same period in 2007. The maintenance of our cost of revenues was a result of our efforts to control expenses and to take advantage of manufacturing efficiencies. We believe we currently have sufficient foam product manufacturing equipment and employees to accomplish a substantial increase in production without incurring a proportionately equivalent increase in labor costs.

Gross Profit.  For the nine month period ended March 31, 2008 we had $693,879 of gross profit compared to $711,577 for the same period in 2007.  Gross profit for the nine month period ended March 31, 2008 decreased by $17,698, or 2%, over same period in 2007 due primarily to an increase in the cost of revenues during the period.  Our gross profit margin decreased slightly to 34% in 2008 from 36% for the same period in 2007.  The slight decrease in our gross profit for the nine month period ended March 31, 2008 as compared to the nine month period ended March 31, 2007 was the result of a 17% decrease in net revenues derived from third-party license fees, combined with an increase of 6% in foam product sales.  During the balance of the fiscal year ending June 30, 2008, we believe that we will be able to maintain our gross margin consistent with the nine months ended March 31, 2008.

Selling, General, and Administrative Expenses.  For the nine month period ended March 31, 2008 we had $3,046,168 of SG&A expenses, including the amortization of deferred compensation, compared to $3,509,312 for the same period in 2007. For the nine month period ended March 31, 2008 our SG&A decreased by $463,144, or 13%, as compared with the same period in 2007, due primarily to decreases in travel, payroll and payroll taxes, advertising, and expenses related to stock options issued to employees, offset by increases in insurance, professional fees, office and facilities expenses. We anticipate that SG&A for the balance of the 2008 fiscal year will be consistent with the nine months ended March 31, 2008.

Research and Development Expenses.  For the nine month period ended March 31, 2008 we had $461,267 of research and development expenses compared to $629,655 for the same period in 2007.  Our research and development expenses for the nine month period ended March 31, 2008, decreased by $168,388, or 27%, as compared with the same period in 2007 due primarily to a decrease in outside testing services during the period.  We expect research and development expenses to increase approximately 10% during the balance of the fiscal year ending June 30, 2008 as we identify and pursue research and development projects of additional applications for our polyurethane technology outside the tire industry.

Consulting Expenses.  For the nine month period ended March 31, 2008, we had $276,615 in outside consulting expenses.  We had $286,274 in outside consulting expenses for the same period in 2007. During the balance of the fiscal year ending June 30, 2008 we expect consulting expenses to remain proportionately consistent


Depreciation and Amortization Expenses.  For the nine month period ended March 31, 2008 we had $220,753 of depreciation and amortization expenses compared to $286,756 for the same period in 2007.  Our depreciation and amortization expenses for the nine month period ended March 31, 2008 decreased by $66,003, or 23%, as compared to the same period in 2007 due primarily to certain assets having been fully depreciated, partially offset by the expense for newly acquired assets during the period.

Net Loss.  For the nine month period ended March 31, 2008 we had a net loss of $3,127,172 compared to a net loss of $3,953,416 for the same period in 2007.  Our net loss for the nine month period ended March 31, 2008 decreased by $826,244 as compared with the same period in 2007 due primarily to the decrease in the research and



18


development, and selling, general and administrative expenses for the nine month period ended March 31, 2008.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Our principal sources of liquidity consist of cash and cash equivalents and payments received from our customers.  We have no long-term liabilities, and we do not have any significant credit arrangements.  Historically, our expenses have exceeded our revenues, resulting in operating losses.  From time to time, we have obtained additional liquidity to fund our operations through the sale of shares of our common stock.  In assessing our liquidity, our management reviews and analyzes our current cash balances on-hand, short-term investments, accounts receivable, accounts payable, capital expenditure commitments and other obligations.

Net Cash Used By Operating Activities.  Our primary sources of operating cash during the nine month period ended March 31, 2008 was receipts from our customers and proceeds from an equity financing completed during fiscal 2007.  Our primary uses of operating cash are payments made to our vendors and employees.

(1)  In November 2007, we negotiated an extension of the lease for our executive and manufacturing facilities located at 1501 Industrial Road, Boulder City, Nevada.  The property consists of a 49,200 square-foot building, which includes approximately 5,500 square-feet of office space, situated on approximately 4.15 acres.  The extension term of the lease is 5 years expiring November 14, 2012.  The base rent is $24,600 per month subject to annual adjustments based on the consumer price index.


Future Capital Requirements


 At March 31, 2008, we had approximately $2.67 million available to finance our operations. In an effort to increase revenues, we have recently expanded our product lines and begun the sale polyurethane foam tire fill and solid polyurethane elastomer tires. In December 2007, we offered aggressive sales projections based on our assessment of our planned sales initiatives. We believe the increased revenues reported for the current fiscal quarter are only beginning to reflect our progress toward our sales projections, which we anticipate will become more apparent by the end of our fiscal year ending June 30, 2008.

Although we believe that we will successfully implement our business plan to provide for additional revenues to offset operating costs, management cannot give any assurances that it will be able to do so or that we will ever operate profitably.  Our business plan assumes, among other things, that our revenues will increase from the sale of the new product lines, our material cost will remain constant or decrease, our expense from operations will continue at a rate similar to the rate we experienced for nine month period ended March 31, 2008, and that we will increase our product pricing.   Until such time as our net income exceeds our expense from operation, it is possible that we may need additional capital. If necessary, we may seek to raise additional capital through the issuance of debt or equity securities. Our ability to obtain financing through the offer and sale of our securities is subject to market conditions and other factors beyond our control. If we do seek additional capital, we cannot assure you that we will be able to obtain financing on favorable terms or at all.


Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

We do not currently have any relationships with unconsolidated entities or financial partnerships, such as entities often referred to as structured finance or special purpose entities, which would have been established for the purpose of facilitating off-balance sheet arrangements or other contractually narrow or limited purposes. In addition, we do not engage in trading activities involving non-exchange traded contracts.


Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In June 2006, the FASB issued FASB Interpretation No. 48 (“FIN 48”), Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes, an Interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109,” which deals with the accounting for uncertainty in



20


income taxes.  FIN 48 was effective for the fiscal year beginning January 1, 2007.  As a result of our history of operating losses, the effects of FIN 48, if any, will be solely on our income tax-related disclosures and, therefore, we do not expect that it will have a material impact on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows for the immediate future.


In September 2006, Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 157, Fair Value Measurements  (“SFAS 157”), defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”), and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. The Company adopted the provisions of SFAS 157 effective January 1, 2008. SFAS 157 does not have a material impact on our results of operations, financial position, or cash flows.


In February 2007, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued SFAS No. 159, The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities, including an amendment of FASB Statement No. 115 (“SFAS 159”), which allows an entity the irrevocable option to elect fair value for the initial and subsequent measurement for certain financial assets and liabilities under an instrument-by-instrument election. Subsequent measurements for the financial assets and liabilities an entity elects to fair value will be recognized in earnings. SFAS 159 also establishes additional disclosure requirements. SFAS 159 is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007, with early adoption permitted provided that the entity also adopts SFAS 157. We have not yet determined the impact this standard will have on our financial statements.

In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS 141(R), Business Combinations, an amendment of SFAS 141, which provides additional guidance on business combinations including defining the acquirer, recognizing and measuring the identifiable assets acquired and the liabilities assumed, and any noncontrolling interest in the acquiree.  Also in December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS 160, Noncontrolling Interests in Consolidated Financial Statements, which amended ARB 51, to establish accounting and reporting standards for the noncontrolling interest in a subsidiary and for the deconsolidation of a subsidiary.  SFAS Nos. 141(R) and 160 are scheduled to become effective for us for financial statements issued for fiscal year 2009.  We are currently evaluating the effects, if any, that these statements will have on our future financial position, results of operations and operating cash flows.


In March 2008, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued SFAS No. 161, Disclosures about Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities-an amendment of FASB Statement No. 133 ("SFAS No. 161"). SFAS No. 161 changes the disclosure requirements for derivative instruments and hedging activities. Entities are required to provide enhanced disclosures about how and why an entity uses derivative instruments, how the instruments are accounted for under SFAS No. 133 and its related interpretations, and how the instruments and related hedged items affect an entity's financial position, financial performance, and cash flows. The guidance in SFAS No. 161 is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years and interim periods beginning after November 15, 2008 (fiscal year 2009 for the Company). The Company is currently evaluating the potential impact of the adoption of SFAS No. 161 on its disclosures in the Company's financial statements.


ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK



We are exposed to changes in prevailing market interest rates affecting the return on our investments but do not consider this interest rate market risk exposure to be material to our financial condition or results of operations.  We invest primarily in United States Treasury instruments with short-term (less than one year) maturities.  The carrying amount of these investments approximates fair value due to the short-term maturities.  Under our current policies, we do not use derivative financial instruments, derivative commodity instruments or other financial instruments to manage our exposure to changes in interest rates or commodity prices.



ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES



We maintain disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. In designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures, management recognized that any controls and procedures, no



21


matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives, and management necessarily was required to apply its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures.


As required by SEC Rule 13a-15(b), an evaluation was performed under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our principal executive officer and our principal financial officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based upon that evaluation, our management, including our principal executive officer and our principal financial officer, concluded that the design and operation of these disclosure controls and procedures were effective at the reasonable assurance level.


There has been no change in our internal controls over financial reporting during our most recent fiscal quarter that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal controls over financial reporting.
