Cautionary Notice Regarding Forward-Looking
Statements
In this document, Derycz
Scientific, Inc. and its subsidiaries are referred to as “we,” “our,” “us,” or the “Company”.
The following discussion
and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations for the years ended June 30, 2012 and 2011 should be read in
conjunction with our consolidated financial statements and related notes to those financial statements that are included elsewhere
in this report.
Our discussion
includes forward-looking statements based upon current expectations that involve risks and uncertainties, such as our plans, objectives,
expectations and intentions. Actual results and the timing of events could differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking
statements as a result of a number of factors, including, without limitation:
|
·
|
the projected growth or contractions
in the industry within which we operate;
|
|
·
|
our business strategy for expanding,
maintaining or contracting our presence in these markets;
|
|
·
|
anticipated trends in our financial
condition and results of operations; and
|
|
·
|
our ability to distinguish ourselves
from our current and future competitors.
|
We use words such
as “anticipate,” “estimate,” “plan,” “project,” “continuing,” “ongoing,”
“expect,” “believe,” “intend,” “may,” “will,” “should,”
“could,” and similar expressions to identify forward-looking statements. All forward-looking statements included in
this report are based on information available to us on the date hereof and, except as required by law, we assume no obligation
to update any such forward-looking statements.
PART I
Item 1. Business
Company Overview
Derycz Scientific,
Inc. is a publicly traded holding company formerly with three wholly-owned subsidiaries, Reprints Desk, Inc., a Delaware corporation
(“Reprints” or “Reprints Desk”), Techniques Appliquées aux Arts Graphiques, S.p.A., an entity organized
under the laws of France (“TAAG”), and Pools Press, Inc., an Illinois corporation (“Pools” or “Pools
Press”). On January 1, 2012, Pools Press was merged with and into Reprints Desk to form one consolidated subsidiary.
Our mission is to provide
information logistics solutions that facilitate the flow of information from the publishers of scientific and technical content
to enterprise customers in life science and other research intensive industries around the world. We provide customers
with access to hundreds of thousands of newly published articles each year in addition to the tens of millions of existing articles
that have been published in the past, helping them to identify the most useful and relevant content for their purposes. We serve
both the publishers who own the content rights and the end-users of the content. We utilize web-based platforms as well as
traditional delivery channels and are developing products and services that make it easier for our customers to find and legally
use information. During the year ended June 30, 2012, we delivered more than 10 million articles in either hard copy or electronic
form to over 1,000 customers in over 100 countries.
We provide three types
of solutions to our customers; research solutions; marketing solutions; and publisher solutions.
Research Solutions
Researchers and regulatory
personnel generally order single copies of published materials, called “document delivery,” for use in their research
activities. In order to use the content, our customers must pay appropriate copyright fees and our services ensure that we have
obtained the necessary permissions from the owners of the published content so that our customers’ use of the content complies
with applicable copyright laws. We have developed Internet-based interfaces that allow customers to initiate orders and manage
transactions, at any time, by specifying the citation or other identifying information related to the particular article they need.
In some cases, we are able to fulfill the order without the need for action on the part of our employees. We also help these customers
to maximize the information resources they already own or have access to via subscriptions or internal libraries, as well as organize
workgroups to collaborate around scientific information. Our services alleviate the need for our customers to develop internal
systems or contact multiple publishers in order to obtain the required information.
Marketing Solutions
Generally, marketing
departments order large quantities of printed copies of published materials called “reprints” that they distribute
to interested parties, including customers and doctors who may prescribe a customer’s products. We print the reprints we
deliver to our customers whenever possible and are responsible for any logistics required to distribute such reprints. TAAG also
prints other materials that are used for marketing purposes and provides other printing logistics products and services. Electronic
copies, called “eprints,” are also used for distribution through the Internet and other electronic mechanisms. We have
also developed eprint software systems that increase the efficiency of our customers’ content purchases by transitioning
from paper reprints to electronic eprints. Our software systems also help to improve compliance with copyright and promotional
regulations within the life sciences industry.
Publisher Solutions
Our publisher solutions
include technology solutions and reprint management services, whereby we are responsible for all aspects of reprint and eprint
production for a publisher, from taking orders to final delivery. This service eliminates the need for the publishers to establish
a dedicated reprints sales force or arrange for delivery of reprinted materials. Our eprint software systems enable publishers
to protect their copyrighted content and support the marketing needs of their customers.
Business Model
We generate revenue
by providing three types of services to our customers; document delivery; reprints and eprints; and printing and reprint management.
Document Delivery
Our business model
for document delivery services is based on charging our customers a copyright fee necessary to obtain permission of use from the
content owner (publisher), and a service fee for delivering the content. We have existing non-exclusive arrangements with many
publishers that provide us with electronic access to much of these publishers’ content, which allows us to deliver single
copies of such content to our customers in a more efficient and timely manner, often in a matter of minutes.
Reprints and
eprints
Our business model
for reprints and eprints is based on charging a fee for aggregating and distributing multiple copies of published materials. When
possible, we obtain the right to print the reprints from the holder of the copyright and we print and ship the reprints ourselves.
We also have built systems that can provide controlled distribution of electronic copies or eprints.
Printing and
Reprint Management
Our business model for printing is based on charging a fee for providing printing services and delivering
hard copy materials to our customers that are generally used for marketing purposes. In addition, we also provide other printing
logistics products and services. These services are complementary to our reprints and eprints, and reprint management services.
Seasonality
Sales of reprints tend
to be higher during the last month of each calendar quarter, particularly in December. The summer months tend to be slower for
document delivery sales.
Growth Strategy
Organic Growth
The Company reaches
out to customers using targeted selling and marketing campaigns consisting of sales calls on potential customers. This strategy
is supported by innovative technological systems, aggressive pricing and excellent service. We also have submitted several proposals
to potential customers in response to Requests For Proposals, or RFPs. We have invested heavily in our operations to ensure
that they will be capable of supporting future growth.
Publisher Agreements
We regularly contact
publishers directly and attempt to negotiate agreements with them under which the publisher would give us access to part or all
of their content and would agree to a price list. Once we have access and a price list, when we receive an order for a particular
article we can access the article electronically, print or eprint the required number of copies and provide it to the customer
within a few minutes or a few days. These agreements eliminate the need to contact the publisher and obtain the rights for each
individual order. Because this step is eliminated, we attempt to negotiate for discounts on the publisher’s existing price
list. In a few cases, we are the exclusive producer of reprints for a publisher, allowing the publisher to eliminate the need for
a reprints and eprints operation internally, and we continue to aggressively market that service.
Acquisitions
As opportunities arise the Company may attempt
to acquire customer lists or companies in the industry that bring revenue, profitability, growth potential, and additional technology,
products, services, operations and/or geographic capabilities to the Company.
International
Expansion
The Company has expanded
internationally through the acquisition of TAAG and through sales to companies located abroad, particularly in Europe and Japan.
We intend to further expand that reach through partnerships or acquisition opportunities if we are able to identify such opportunities
and negotiate acceptable terms.
Technology
Central to the Company’s
ability to provide value to our customers and to publishers is the technology that underlies the products and services the Company
offers. The Company offers software-driven solutions making the processes involved in identifying and obtaining content faster,
more efficient and less expensive. While some of the relevant tasks require employee input, many are automatically performed by
software developed by the Company. By consolidating and automating identification, retrieval and delivery functions, the Company
has the potential to provide significant cost savings to its customers.
For example, Reprints
Desk customer, “XYZ” Life Sciences, faced the following challenges:
|
·
|
Reducing platform fees associated with third party document delivery platforms for scientific literature;
|
|
·
|
Eliminating costly expedited services fees for delivery of content; and
|
|
·
|
Securing a comprehensive and integrated product that would increase staff productivity.
|
To meet these challenges,
“XYZ” Life Sciences:
|
·
|
Adopted and launched Reprints’ ultra-rapid article supply system on an enterprise-wide basis;
|
|
·
|
Immediately transitioned to a full self-service model for end users with Reprints acting as the first line of support;
|
|
·
|
Seamlessly integrated with existing discovery platforms such as PubMed and OVID; and
|
|
·
|
Deployed a tailored version of Reprints’ article resolver solution that quickly matches orders with existing company subscriptions, then delivers article-level links.
|
Utilization of the
Company’s products and services resulted in:
|
·
|
Elimination of more than $10,000 in annual platform fees and $30,000 in rush delivery surcharges;
|
|
·
|
Receipt of articles in clean PDF format 100% of the time and improved ordering and delivery speed; and
|
|
·
|
User satisfaction and time-savings for administrators who no longer needed to intervene in document delivery operations.
|
The Company continues to seek
ways to enhance the performance of its existing systems and to develop and implement new technologies that expand the available
methods of seeking and obtaining desired content. The Company currently offers the following products:
|
·
|
Article Delivery, which provides single article administration and same-day delivery, usually within a few minutes to a few hours, with features to increase end user satisfaction and avoid unnecessary purchases;
|
|
·
|
Article Galaxy, a journal article platform that improves processes and spending related to
evidence-based promotions and scientific, technical and medical research;
|
|
·
|
Article Reprints, a global article reprints procurement solution enabling life science and healthcare communications companies to efficiently manage and effectively utilize scientific journal articles to increase product revenue;
|
|
·
|
Article Group Purchase, a group purchasing software service that consolidates article reprint buying to provide savings on annual and per order bulk article reprint purchases;
|
|
·
|
Publisher Service Bureau, an outsourcing service whereby Reprints manages all or part of a publisher’s journal article reprints business;
|
|
·
|
Bibliogo, a web app that enables secure scientific collaboration and discovery; and
|
|
·
|
Article Viewer™, a mobile-web app that allows life science companies and publishers to protect their copyrighted content and support their marketing needs.
|
Target Markets and Customers
Derycz targets
companies that have significant marketing, communications, investor relations, educational, and research and development
budgets. We currently place emphasis on the life sciences industry with a focus in the pharmaceutical, biotechnology and
medical device industries. We also have customers in the following industries: food and agriculture, petroleum, chemicals,
legal and academia. Approximately 11% of our consolidated revenues for the year ended June 30, 2012 was derived from our
largest customer. We intend to expand in our current markets and enter additional markets as opportunities arise.
The Industry and Competition
The size of the reprint
and eprint market is difficult to estimate because it is a small part of the larger publishing industry and little specific financial
information is available. While we believe we have a small fraction of that market, we believe that we are able to compete with
larger providers in the following ways:
|
·
|
Established Relationships and Industry Presence
- We have a well-established presence and a network of contacts in the publishing and content delivery space. We have existing contractual relationships, some of which are exclusive, with a number of publishers. Further, our CEO has been involved in this space for over 20 years since he founded Infotrieve, a leading scientific document delivery services company, in 1989.
|
|
·
|
Customer Loyalty
- 73% of Reprints Desk’s revenues for the year ended June 30, 2012 came from repeat customers, indicative of our focus on customer satisfaction and quality products.
|
|
·
|
Differentiated Offering
- Our services are customized to the client’s needs and provide a turnkey solution that covers the spectrum of customer requirements; from identifying and locating articles, to ensuring copyright compliance, print fulfillment, electronic storage and monitoring and tracking usage.
|
|
·
|
Comprehensive Range of Products and Services
- We offer a broad range of products and services that meet the various information needs of our customers.
|
|
·
|
Technology
- We have developed proprietary content delivery and management systems, including an internet-based transaction management system that allows customers to initiate, manage and generate reports on article requests and usage. This system integrates into corporate intranets and workflows through the Internet, web services and other integration mechanisms. The system assists corporate end-users, work groups and administrators to easily access published materials as well as maximize the use of existing corporate content assets.
|
|
·
|
Print Capabilitie
s - We have capabilities to internally print materials and produce eprints. As a result, we often are able to substantially reduce the time it takes to deliver reprints and eprints to our customers.
|
|
·
|
Experienced Management Team
- Our management team has extensive experience with over 100 years of combined experience in the industry.
|
|
·
|
Marketing
- The Company has earned a position as a pioneer in the marketplace, employing a segment-based focus and offense-oriented marketing approach to challenge existing competition. In pursuit of growth, we invest in vertical integration and channel relationships to increase the value we provide to customers, extend our promotional reach, and decrease customer acquisition costs. We anticipate growth coming from cross-selling into our existing customer base and by generating market demand and preference from both existing and new customers. In customer acquisitions, we rely on sales promotion to sell to large enterprise accounts and marketing communications to more efficiently recruit small-to-medium and geographically-dispersed enterprises. The promotional mix of tactics we utilize includes: advertising, events, direct response and integrated marketing campaigns, public relations and content publicity, search engine optimization and marketing, thought leadership programs, channel alliances training, and analyst relations. In addition, a portion of our marketing budget is dedicated to research and customer retention, which increases total lifetime value per account and generates significant amounts of overall referrals for new business.

Industry Achievements
In 2012, Reprints was
named one of KMWorld’s “100 Companies That Matter in Knowledge Management” for the fourth year in a row. Companies
previously named to this list include: Google, Apple, Microsoft, Oracle, SAP, Adobe, EMC and IBM.
Bibliogo™ was named the sole 2012
winner in the Best Online Science or Technology Service category by the Software & Information Industry Association (SIIA).
Article Galaxy was
named a Top-100 trend-setting product in 2012 after a review of more than 600 individual products by KMWorld Magazine editors,
analysts, integrators and users. Each and every company whose products were chosen as Trend-Setting Products is acknowledged for
its willingness to listen and serve its customers in useful and innovative ways
Mr. Derycz has contributed
articles to the journals
Pharmaceutical Manufacturing
and
Genetic Engineering & Biotechnology News
. Both articles
discuss the ways that a dedicated professional document preparation service, like the kind provided by Reprints Desk, can contribute
to timely regulatory submissions and approvals for pharmaceutical companies. Mr. Derycz is also a frequent speaker at industry
specific conferences on the topics of information management, cloud computing, corporate social responsibility, and end user happiness.
Competition
The primary methods
of competition in our industry are price, service, technology and niche focus. Competition based on price is often successful in
the short-term, but can limit the ability of a supplier to provide adequate service levels. Competition based on service and/or
technology requires significant investment in systems and that investment requires time to recoup. Niche operators focus on narrow
activities, but cannot aggregate sufficient content, technology and services to satisfy broad customer needs. We feel that many
customers and potential customers are less price sensitive if the service levels are high and the technology creates efficiency
and/or management information that has not been available previously.
We compete with a number
of companies, including those falling within the following categories:
|
·
|
Publisher Service Companies
- Primarily printing shops that offer to manage a publisher’s reprints business in addition to providing their main subscription printing needs (
e.g.
, Sheridan Reprints, Reprint Services, Cadmus, Reprint Management Services, Foster Reprints, Red Rover Reprints).
|
|
·
|
Media Buyers
- These companies aggregate advertising “buy” and obtain a publisher discount, sometimes including reprints as part of their “buy” (
e.g.
, Compas).
|
|
·
|
Rights Management Companies
- Offer a turnkey rights management service online for publishers (
e.g.
, iCopyright).
|
|
·
|
Publisher In-House Capabilities
- Some large publishers have developed in-house capabilities to service the content re-use market, however, many of them neglect other content repurposing opportunities and may not be able to aggregate content from other publishers.
|
|
·
|
Content Aggregators
- We compete against Scoop Reprint Source and Infotrieve in this category.
|
|
·
|
Customer In-House Services
- While single copy services are more challenging for our customers to provide in house, many existing and potential customers, sometimes or always manage their multiple copy orders internally. If the internal person lacks experience, this can create problems with the physical reprints not meeting the customer’s requirements and can waste valuable time.
|
|
·
|
Piracy
- Piracy is, perhaps, our most serious competitor. Many entities use content for commercial purposes without paying the legally required copyright fees. As information becomes more readily available, the opportunity for piracy increases, as do publishers’ ability to identify unauthorized use.
|
Corporate History and Structure
Derycz Scientific,
Inc. was incorporated in the State of Nevada on November 2, 2006. In November 2006 the Company entered into a Share Exchange Agreement
with Reprints Desk, Inc., a Delaware corporation. At the closing of the transaction contemplated by the Share Exchange Agreement,
the Company acquired all of the outstanding shares of Reprints from the shareholders of Reprints and issued 8,000,003 common shares
to the former shareholders of Reprints. Following completion of the exchange transaction, Reprints became a wholly-owned subsidiary
of the Company.
On February 28, 2007,
the Company entered into an agreement with Pools Press, Inc., an Illinois corporation, pursuant to which the Company acquired 75%
of the issued and outstanding common stock of Pools for consideration of $616,080. The Company purchased the remaining interest
in Pools that it did not already own on August 31, 2010. Pools is a commercial printer, specializing in reprints of copyrighted
articles. The results of Pools Press’ operations have been included in the Company’s consolidated financial statements
since March 1, 2007. On January 1, 2012, Pools merged with and into Reprints whereby Reprints assumed all of the rights and properties
of Pools, forming one consolidated subsidiary and eliminating the separate legal existence of Pools.
On March 31, 2011,
the Company entered into an agreement with Fimmotaag, S.p.A., a privately held company domiciled in France, pursuant to which the
Company acquired 100% of the issued and outstanding common stock of TAAG in exchange for 336,921 shares of the Company’s
common stock in addition to future payments payable at the option of Fimmotaag in cash or the Company’s common stock under
the terms of the purchase agreement. TAAG is a printing and logistics company located outside of Paris, France.
Item 1A. Risk Factors
The following summarizes
material risks that investors should carefully consider before deciding to buy or maintain an investment in our common stock. Any
of the following risks, if they actually occur, would likely harm our business, financial condition and results of operations.
As a result, the trading price of our common stock could decline, and investors could lose the money they paid to buy our common
stock.
Risks Relating to Our Business
We have incurred
significant losses, and may never achieve profitability. If we continue to incur losses, we may have to curtail our operations,
which may prevent us from successfully operating and expanding our business.
We have a history of
significant losses. Historically, we have relied upon cash from financing activities to fund substantially all of the cash requirements
of our activities and have incurred significant losses and experienced negative cash flow. As of June 30, 2012, we had an accumulated
deficit of
$
14,184,160. For our fiscal years ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, we incurred a net loss of $6,532,289 and $5,407,606,
respectively. We cannot predict when we will become profitable or if we ever will become profitable. We may continue to incur losses
for an indeterminate period of time and may never achieve or sustain profitability. An extended period of losses and negative cash
flow may prevent us from successfully operating and expanding our business. Even if we are able to achieve profitability, we may
be unable to sustain or increase our profitability on a quarterly or annual basis.
We depend
on the services of Peter Derycz, and the loss of his services could adversely affect our ability to achieve our business
objectives.
Our
success depends in part upon the continued service of Peter Derycz, who is our President, Chief Executive Officer,
and Chairman. Mr. Derycz is critical to the overall management of the Company as well as to the development of our
technologies, our culture and our strategic direction and is instrumental in developing and maintaining close ties with our
customer base. Although we have entered into an employment agreement with Mr. Derycz, the agreement does not guarantee the
service of Mr. Derycz for a specified period of time.
We do not have key man insurance for Mr. Derycz.
The
loss of Mr. Derycz’s services could significantly delay or prevent the achievement of our business
objectives. Consequently, the loss of Mr. Derycz’s services could adversely affect our business, financial condition
and results of operations.
We depend on
key personnel and we may not be able to operate and grow our business effectively if we lose the services of any of our key personnel
or are unable to attract qualified personnel in the future.
We rely heavily on
our senior management team because they have substantial experience with our diverse service offerings and business strategies.
In addition, we rely on our senior management team to identify internal expansion and external growth opportunities. Our ability
to retain senior management and other key personnel is therefore very important to our future success.
We have employment
agreements with our senior management, but these employment agreements do not ensure that they will not voluntarily terminate their
employment with us. In addition, our key personnel are subject to non-solicitation and confidential information restrictions. We
do not have key man insurance for any of our current management or other key personnel. The loss of any key personnel would require
the remaining key personnel to divert immediate attention to seeking a replacement. Competition for senior management personnel
is intense, and fit is important to us. An inability to find a suitable replacement for any departing executive officer or key
employee on a timely basis could adversely affect our ability to operate and grow our business.
We rely on our
proprietary software systems, and our web sites and online networks, and a disruption, failure or security compromise of these
systems may disrupt our business, damage our reputation and adversely affect our revenues and profitability.
Our proprietary software
systems are critical to our business because they enable the efficient and timely service of a large number of customer orders.
Similarly, we rely on our web sites, online networks, and email systems to deliver customer orders, and provide timely, relevant
and dependable business information to our customers. Therefore, network or system shutdowns caused by events such as computer
hacking, dissemination of computer viruses, worms and other destructive or disruptive software, denial of service attacks and other
malicious activity, as well as power outages, natural disasters and similar events, could have an adverse impact on our operations,
customer satisfaction and revenues due to degradation of service, service disruption or damage to equipment and data.
In addition to shutdowns,
our systems are subject to risks caused by misappropriation, misuse, leakage, falsification and accidental release or loss of information,
including sensitive data maintained in our proprietary software systems and credit card information of our customers. As a result
of the increasing awareness concerning the importance of safeguarding information, ongoing attempts to hack and misuse companies’
information, and legislation that continues to be adopted regarding the protection and security of information, information-related
costs and risks are increasing.
Disruptions or security
compromises of our systems could result in large expenditures to repair or replace such systems, to remedy any security breaches
and protect us from similar events in the future. We also could be exposed to negligence claims or other legal proceedings brought
by our customers or their clients, and we could incur significant legal expenses and our management’s attention may be diverted
from our operations in defending ourselves against and resolving lawsuits or claims. In addition, if we were to suffer damage to
our reputation as a result of any system failure or security compromise, our revenues and profitability could be adversely affected.
Our failure to
comply with the covenants contained in our loan agreement could result in an event of default that could adversely affect our financial
condition and ability to operate our business as planned.
We have, and will continue
to have, a line of credit. Our loan agreement contains, and any agreements to refinance our debt likely will contain, financial
and restrictive covenants. Our failure to comply with these covenants may result in an event of default, which if not cured or
waived, could result in the banks preventing us from accessing availability under our line of credit. If this were to occur we
may not have sufficient cash resources to be able to continue our operations as planned. In addition, the indebtedness under our
loan agreement is secured by a security interest in substantially all of our tangible and intangible assets, and therefore, if
we are unable to repay such indebtedness the banks could foreclose on these assets and sell the pledged equity interests, which
would adversely affect our ability to operate our business.
Our revenues
have traditionally been concentrated among a few customers and if these large repeat customers choose to manage their information
logistics needs with their own staff or with another provider and if we are unable to develop new customer relationships, our operating
results and the ability to execute our growth strategy may be adversely affected.
Our operating results
and ability to execute our growth strategy could be adversely affected if we lose business from our top repeat customers or we
are unable to attract additional business from current or new customers for any reason, including any of the following: poor service,
the loss of key employees, or the decision of our customers to perform information logistics services with their own staff or with
another provider. If any of these were to occur, it could reduce our cash flow and adversely affect the results of our operations.
Government regulations
related to the Internet could increase our cost of doing business, affect our ability to grow or may otherwise negatively affect
our business.
Governmental agencies
and federal and state legislatures have adopted, and may continue to adopt, new laws and regulatory practices in response to the
increasing use of the Internet and other online services. These new laws may be related to issues such as online privacy, copyrights,
trademarks and service mark, sales taxes, fair business practices, domain name ownership and the requirement that our operating
units register to do business as foreign entities or otherwise be licensed to do business in jurisdictions where they have no physical
location or other presence. In addition, these new laws, regulations or interpretations relating to doing business through the
Internet could increase our costs materially and adversely affect the revenues and results of operations.
Our failure to
manage our growth effectively could prevent us from achieving our goals.
Our strategy envisions
a period of growth that may impose a significant burden on our administrative, financial and operational resources. The growth
of our business will require management’s close attention. Our ability to effectively manage our growth will require us to
substantially expand the capabilities of our administrative and operational resources and to attract, train, manage and retain
qualified personnel. We may be unable to do so. In addition, our failure to successfully manage our growth could result in our
sales not increasing commensurately with our capital investments. If we are unable to successfully manage our growth, we may be
unable to achieve our goals.
We are subject
to risks related to our foreign operations which could adversely affect our operations and financial performance.
We have a printing
facility in France and sell our services worldwide. Foreign operations are subject to various risks which could have a material
adverse effect on those operations or our business as a whole, including: exposure to local economic conditions; exposure to local
political conditions; currency exchange rate fluctuations; reliance of local management; and additional potential costs of complying
with rules and regulations of foreign jurisdictions. Any adverse consequence resulting from the materialization of the foregoing
risks would adversely affect our financial performance and results of operations.
Risks Relating to Ownership of Our Common
Stock
We cannot predict
the extent to which an active public trading market for our common stock will develop or be sustained. If a public trading market
does not develop or cannot be sustained, you may be unable to liquidate your investment in our common stock.
We cannot predict the
extent to which an active public market for our common stock will develop or be sustained due to a number of factors, including
the fact that we are a small company that is relatively unknown to stock analysts, stock brokers, institutional investors, and
others in the investment community that generate or influence sales volume, and that even if we came to the attention of such persons,
they tend to be risk-averse and would be reluctant to follow an unproven company such as ours or purchase or recommend the purchase
of our shares of common stock until such time as we became more seasoned and viable. As a consequence, there may be periods of
several days or more when trading activity in our shares is minimal or non-existent, as compared to a seasoned issuer which has
a large and steady volume of trading activity that will generally support continuous sales without an adverse effect on share price.
We cannot give you any assurance that a public trading market for our common stock will be sustained. If such a market cannot be
sustained, you may be unable to liquidate your investment in our common stock.
In addition, the market
price for our common stock may be particularly volatile given our status as a relatively small company with a small and thinly-traded
“public float” that could lead to wide fluctuations in our share price. You may be unable to sell your common stock
at or above your purchase price if at all, which may result in substantial losses to you.
Our common stock
may be subject to significant price volatility which may have an adverse effect on your ability to liquidate your investment in
our common stock.
The market for our
common stock may be characterized by significant price volatility when compared to seasoned issuers, and we expect that our share
price will be more volatile than a seasoned issuer for the indefinite future. The potential volatility in our share price is attributable
to a number of factors. First, our common shares may be sporadically and/or thinly traded. As a consequence of this lack of liquidity,
the trading of relatively small quantities of shares by our stockholders may disproportionately influence the price of those shares
in either direction. The price for our shares could, for example, decline precipitously in the event that a large number of our
common shares are sold on the market without commensurate demand, as compared to a seasoned issuer that could better absorb those
sales without adverse impact on its share price. Secondly, an investment in us is a speculative or “risky” investment
due to our lack of meaningful profits to date and uncertainty of future profits. As a consequence of this enhanced risk, more risk-adverse
investors may, under the fear of losing all or most of their investment in the event of negative news or lack of progress, be more
inclined to sell their shares on the market more quickly and at greater discounts than would be the case with the stock of a seasoned
issuer.
Voting power
of a significant percentage of our common stock is held by our president, chief executive officer and chairman, and his brother-in-law,
who together are able to control or exercise significant influence over the outcome of matters to be voted on by our stockholders.
Peter Derycz, our President,
Chief Executive Officer, and Chairman, has voting power equal to approximately 23% of all votes eligible to be cast at a meeting
of our stockholders. Paul Kessler, the brother-in-law of Mr. Derycz, exercises investment and voting control over the shares held
by Bristol Investment Fund, Ltd., and Bristol Capital, LLC, and has voting power equal to approximately 27% of all votes eligible
to be cast at a meeting of our stockholders. As a result of their significant ownership interests, Mr. Derycz and Mr. Kessler together
will be able to exercise significant influence with respect to the election of directors, and other matters submitted to a vote
of all of our stockholders.
The exercise
of outstanding options and warrants to purchase our common stock could substantially dilute your investment.
Under the terms of
our outstanding options and warrants to purchase our common stock issued to employees and others, the holders are given an opportunity
to profit from a rise in the market price of our common stock that, upon the exercise of the options and/or warrants, could result
in dilution in the interests of our other stockholders.
The market price
of our common stock and the value of your investment could substantially decline if our warrants or options are exercised and our
common stock is issued and resold into the market, or if a perception exists that a substantial number of shares will be issued
upon exercise of our warrants and option and then resold into the market.
If the exercise prices
of our warrants or options and are lower than the price at which you made your investment, immediate dilution of the value of your
investment will occur. In addition, sales of a substantial number of shares of common stock issued upon exercise of our warrants
and options, or even the perception that such sales could occur, could adversely affect the market price of our common stock. You
could, therefore, experience a substantial decline in the value of your investment as a result of both the actual and potential
exercise of our warrants or options.
Because we may
be subject to the “Penny Stock” rules, the level of trading activity in our common stock may be reduced.
Our common stock is
quoted on the OTC Bulletin Board. The last reported sale price per share of our common stock on September 24, 2012, was $1.25.
As a result, our common stock will most likely constitute “Penny Stock.” Broker-dealer practices in connection with
transactions in Penny Stocks are regulated by rules adopted by the Securities and Exchange Commission, or SEC. Penny Stocks are
generally equity securities with a price per share of less than $5.00 (other than securities registered on certain national exchanges).
The Penny Stock rules require a broker-dealer, prior to a transaction in Penny Stocks not exempt from the rules, to deliver a standardized
risk disclosure document that provides information about Penny Stocks and the nature and level of risks in the Penny Stock market.
The broker-dealer must also provide the customer with current bid and offer quotations for the Penny Stock, the compensation of
the broker-dealer and the salesperson in the transaction, and monthly accounting statements showing the market value of each Penny
Stock held in the customer’s account. In addition, the broker-dealer must make a special written determination that the Penny
Stock is a suitable investment for the purchaser and receive the purchaser’s written agreement to the transaction. These
requirements may have the effect of reducing the level of trading activity in a Penny Stock, such as our common stock, and investors
in our common stock may find it difficult to sell their shares.
Because our common
stock is not listed on a national securities exchange, you may find it difficult to dispose of or obtain quotations for our common
stock.
Our common stock is
quoted on the OTC Bulletin Board under the symbol “DYSC.” Because our stock is quoted on the OTC Bulletin Board rather
than on a national securities exchange, you may find it difficult to either dispose of, or to obtain quotations as to the price
of, our common stock.
Failure to achieve
and maintain effective internal controls in accordance with Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 could result in a restatement
of our financial statements, cause investors to lose confidence in our financial statements and our company and have a material
adverse effect on our business and stock price.
We produce our financial
statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States, or GAAP. Effective internal controls
are necessary for us to provide reliable financial reports to help mitigate the risk of fraud and to operate successfully as a
publicly traded company. As a public company, we are required to document and test our internal control procedures in order to
satisfy the requirements of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, or Section 404. Further, Section 404 requires annual
management assessments of the effectiveness of our internal controls over financial reporting.
Testing and maintaining
internal controls can divert our management’s attention from other matters that are important to our business. We may not
be able to conclude on an ongoing basis that we have effective internal controls over financial reporting in accordance with Section
404. If we are unable to conclude that we have effective internal controls over financial reporting, investors could lose confidence
in our reported financial information and our company, which could result in a decline in the market price of our common stock,
and cause us to fail to meet our reporting obligations in the future, which in turn could impact our ability to raise additional
financing if needed in the future.

Dividends
We have not paid any
cash dividends and we currently intend to retain any future earnings to fund the development and growth of our business. Any future

relevant by our Board of Directors.
Equity Compensation Plan Information
Information relating
to compensation plans under which our equity securities are authorized for issuance is set forth in Item 12 of this report under
“Security Ownership of Certain Beneficial Owners and Management and Related Stockholder Matters.”
Recent Sales of Unregistered Securities
During the year ended
June 30, 2012, we issued the following equity securities of the Company that were not registered under the Securities Act of 1933,
as amended (the “Act”), and that were not previously disclosed in a quarterly report on Form 10-Q or on a current report
on Form 8-K. In each case, we relied upon the exemption from registration under the Act found in Section 4(2) of the Act
because the investors took the securities for investment purposes and without a view distribution and were provided access to information
regarding the Company, and because there was no general solicitation or advertising for the purchase of the shares.
On March 5, 2012, we
granted options to purchase an aggregate of 263,000 shares of the Company’s common stock at $1.30 per share, which expire
on March 2, 2022, to five employees for services rendered to the Company.

Overview
Derycz Scientific,
Inc. was incorporated in the State of Nevada on November 2, 2006. In November 2006 the Company entered into a Share Exchange Agreement
with Reprints Desk, Inc., a Delaware corporation. At the closing of the transaction contemplated by the Share Exchange Agreement,
the Company acquired all of the outstanding shares of Reprints from the shareholders of Reprints and issued 8,000,003 common shares
to the former shareholders of Reprints. Following completion of the exchange transaction, Reprints became a wholly-owned subsidiary
of the Company.
On February 28, 2007,
the Company entered into an agreement with Pools Press, Inc., an Illinois corporation, pursuant to which the Company acquired 75%
of the issued and outstanding common stock of Pools for consideration of $616,080. The Company purchased the remaining interest
in Pools that it did not already own on August 31, 2010. Pools is a commercial printer, specializing in reprints of copyrighted
articles. The results of Pools Press’ operations have been included in the Company’s consolidated financial statements
since March 1, 2007. On January 1, 2012, Pools merged with and into Reprints whereby Reprints assumed all of the rights and properties
of Pools, forming one consolidated subsidiary and eliminating the separate legal existence of Pools.
On March 31, 2011,
the Company entered into an agreement with Fimmotaag, S.p.A., a privately held company domiciled in France, pursuant to which the
Company acquired 100% of the issued and outstanding common stock of Techniques Appliquées aux Arts Graphiques, S.p.A., in
exchange for 336,921 shares of the Company’s common stock in addition to future payments payable at the option of Fimmotaag
in cash or the Company’s common stock under the terms of the purchase agreement. TAAG is a printing and logistics company
located outside of Paris, France.
Our mission is to provide
information logistics solutions that facilitate the flow of information from the publishers of scientific and technical content
to enterprise customers in life science and other research intensive industries around the world. We make the hundreds
of thousands of new articles each year, in addition to the tens of millions of existing articles that have been published in the
past, available to our customers and help them identify the most useful and relevant content for their purposes. We serve both
the publishers who own the content rights and the end-users of the content. We utilize web-based platforms as well as traditional
delivery channels and are developing products and services that make it easier for our customers to find and use information. During
the year ended June 30, 2012, we delivered more than 10 million articles in either hard copy or electronic form to over 1,000 customers
in over 100 countries.
We provide three types
of solutions to our customers; research solutions; marketing solutions; and publisher solutions.
Research Solutions
Researchers and regulatory
personnel generally order single copies of published materials, called “document delivery,” for use in their research
activities. In order to use the content, our customers must pay appropriate copyright fees and our services ensure that we have
obtained the necessary permissions from the owners of the published content so that our customers’ use of the content complies
with applicable copyright laws. We have developed Internet-based interfaces that allow customers to initiate orders and manage
transactions, at any time, by specifying the citation or other identifying information related to the particular article they need.
In some cases, we are able to fulfill the order without the need for action on the part of our employees. We also help these customers
to maximize the information resources they already own or have access to via subscriptions or internal libraries, as well as organize
workgroups to collaborate around scientific information. Our services alleviate the need for our customers to develop internal
systems or contact multiple publishers in order to obtain the required information.
Marketing Solutions
Generally, marketing
departments order large quantities of printed copies of published materials called “reprints” that they distribute
to interested parties, including customers and doctors who may prescribe a customer’s products. We print the reprints we
deliver to our customers whenever possible and are responsible for any logistics required to distribute such reprints. TAAG also
prints other materials that are used for marketing purposes and provides other printing logistics products and services. Electronic
copies, called “eprints,” are also used for distribution through the Internet and other electronic mechanisms. We have
also developed eprint software systems that increase the efficiency of our customers’ content purchases by transitioning
from paper reprints to electronic eprints. Our software systems also help to improve compliance with copyright and promotional
regulations within the life sciences industry.
Publisher Solutions
Our publisher solutions
include technology solutions and reprint management services, whereby we are responsible for all aspects of reprint and eprint
production for a publisher, from taking orders to final delivery. This service eliminates the need for the publishers to establish
a dedicated reprints sales force or arrange for delivery of reprinted materials. Our eprint software systems enable publishers
to protect their copyrighted content and support the marketing needs of their customers.
Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
The preparation of
our consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported
amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue and expenses, and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. When making
these estimates and assumptions, we consider our historical experience, our knowledge of economic and market factors and various
other factors that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results may differ under different estimates and
assumptions.
The accounting estimates and assumptions
discussed in this section are those that we consider to be the most critical to an understanding of our financial statements because
they inherently involve significant judgments and uncertainties.
Revenue Recognition
The Company’s
policy is to recognize revenue when services have been performed, risk of loss and title to the product transfers to the customer,
the selling price is fixed or determinable, and collectability is reasonably assured. We generate revenue by providing three types
of services to our customers; document delivery; reprints and eprints; and printing and reprint management.
Document Delivery
Our business
model for document delivery services is based on charging our customers a copyright fee necessary to obtain permission of use from
the content owner (publisher), and a service fee for delivering the content. We have existing non-exclusive arrangements with many
publishers that provide us with electronic access to much of these publishers’ content, which allows us to deliver single
copies of such content to our customers in a more efficient and timely manner, often in a matter of minutes. The Company recognizes
revenue from document delivery services upon electronic delivery to the customer only when the selling price is fixed or determinable,
and collectability is reasonably assured.
Reprints
and eprints
Our business
model for reprints and eprints is based on charging a fee for aggregating and distributing multiple copies of published materials.
When possible, we obtain the right to print the reprints from the holder of the copyright and we print and ship the reprints ourselves.
We also have built systems that can provide controlled distribution of electronic copies or eprints. The Company recognizes revenue
from reprints and eprints services upon shipment or electronic delivery to the customer only when the selling price is fixed or
determinable, and collectability is reasonably assured.
Printing
and Reprint Management
Our business
model for printing is based on charging a fee for providing printing services and delivering hard copy materials to our customers
that are generally used for marketing purposes. In addition, we also provide other printing logistics products and services. These
services are complementary to our reprints and eprints, and reprint management services. The Company recognizes revenue from printing
services when the printed materials have been shipped to the customer only when the selling price is fixed or determinable, and
collectability is reasonably assured.
Stock-Based Compensation
The Company periodically
issues stock options and warrants to employees and non-employees in capital raising transactions, for services and for financing
costs. The Company accounts for share-based payments under the guidance as set forth in the
Share-Based Payment
Topic 718
of the Financial Accounting Standards Board (the "FASB") Accounting Standards Codification, which requires the measurement
and recognition of compensation expense for all share-based payment awards made to employees, officers, directors, and consultants,
including employee stock options based on estimated fair values. The Company estimates the fair value of share-based payment awards
to employees and directors on the date of grant using an option-pricing model, and the value of the portion of the award that is
ultimately expected to vest is recognized as expense over the required service period in the Company's Statements of Operations.
The Company accounts for stock option and warrant grants issued and vesting to non-employees in accordance with Topic 718 of the
FASB Accounting Standards Codification, whereby the value of the stock compensation is based upon the measurement date as determined
at either a) the date at which a performance commitment is reached, or b) the date at which the necessary performance to earn the
equity instruments is complete. Stock-based compensation is based on awards ultimately expected to vest and is reduced for
estimated forfeitures. Forfeitures are estimated at the time of grant and revised, as necessary, in subsequent periods if actual
forfeitures differ from those estimates.
Goodwill and Intangible Assets
As required by the FASB, management performs
impairment tests of goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets at least annually, or whenever an event occurs or circumstances
change that indicate impairment has more likely than not occurred.
In accordance with
guidance of the FASB, management tests goodwill for impairment at the reporting unit level. The Company has two reportable diverse
geographical concentrations. At the time of goodwill impairment testing, management determines fair value through the use of a
discounted cash flow valuation model incorporating discount rates commensurate with the risks involved with its reporting
unit. If the calculated fair value is less than the current carrying value, impairment of the Company’s assets may exist.
The use of a discounted cash flow valuation model to determine estimated fair value is common practice in impairment testing in
the absence of available domestic and international transactional market evidence to determine the fair value. The key assumptions
used in the discounted cash flow valuation model for impairment testing include discount rates, growth rates, cash flow projections
and terminal value rates.
In accordance with
guidance of the FASB, the Company reviews intangible assets subject to amortization at least annually to determine if any adverse
conditions exist or a change in circumstances has occurred that would indicate impairment or a change in the remaining useful life.
If the carrying value of an asset exceeds its undiscounted cash flows, the Company writes down the carrying value of the intangible
asset to its fair value in the period identified. If the carrying value of assets is determined not to be recoverable, the Company
records an impairment loss equal to the excess of the carrying value over the fair value of the assets. The Company’s estimate
of fair value is based on the best information available, in the absence of quoted market prices. The Company generally calculates
fair value as the present value of estimated future cash flows that the Company expects to generate from the asset using a discounted
cash flow income approach as described above. If the estimate of an intangible asset’s remaining useful life is changed,
the Company amortizes the remaining carrying value of the intangible asset prospectively over the revised remaining useful life.
During the year ended
June 30, 2012, the Company determined that the recorded values of goodwill of $1,344,219 and intangible assets with a remaining
net book value of $617,757 that arose upon the acquisition of TAAG were impaired. Accordingly, during the year ended June
30, 2012, the Company recorded an impairment loss of $1,602,638 that represents the impairment of the goodwill and the unamortized
value of intangible assets as of March 31, 2012, offset by the elimination of the earnout liability of $359,338 which the Company
estimates will no longer be payable. In addition, the Company also recorded an income tax benefit of $350,000 to reduce the
deferred tax liability created upon the acquisition of TAAG that management determined was no longer necessary.
During the year ended
June 30, 2012, the Company determined that the recorded value of goodwill of $233,385 that arose upon the acquisition of Pools
Press was impaired. Accordingly, during the year ended June 30, 2012, the Company recorded an impairment loss of $233,385
that represents the impairment of the goodwill.
In addition, during
the year ended June 30, 2012, the Company determined that the recorded value of intangible assets related to intellectual property
licenses were impaired. Accordingly, during the year ended June 30, 2012, the Company recorded an impairment loss of $688,138 that
represents the unamortized value of intangible assets related to intellectual property licenses as of March 31, 2012.

Revenue from US operations
increased $1.4 million, or 5.9%, for the year ended June 30, 2012 compared to the prior year, and was primarily due to the acquisition
of new customers and increased sales from existing customers. We expect revenue from US operations to continue to increase during
the 2013 fiscal year.
Revenue from TAAG was
$11.7 million for the year ended June 30, 2012 and $3.8 million for the prior year. The primary reason for the increase was that
only three months of revenue from TAAG were included in the prior year. Revenue from TAAG, which has been steadily declining primarily
due to disappointing sales efforts and general financial uncertainty in Europe, seems to have stabilized in early 2012.

The decrease in our
cost of revenue as a percentage of revenue from US operations for the year ended June 30, 2012 compared to the prior year, was
primarily due to the amendment of a certain publisher agreement that required minimum guaranteed payments and expense reduction
measures that reduced our production expenses. For the year ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, we recorded approximately $2,699,676
and $3,447,283, respectively, of revenue, under a certain publisher agreement that required minimum guaranteed payments, while
recording approximately $3,965,708 and $4,375,311, respectively, of costs, which caused our cost of revenue to increase significantly
relative to the revenue levels and therefore significantly reduced our gross margin from US operations. We also expect an
increase in our gross margin from US operations in the future from this publisher agreement amendment, and as a result of expense
reduction measures that reduced our production expenses during the year ended June 30, 2012.
Cost of revenue from
TAAG was $7.1 million for the year ended June 30, 2012 and $2.3 million for the prior year. The primary reason for the increase
was that only three months of cost of revenue from TAAG were included in the prior year.

Selling, General and Administrative
Selling, general and
administrative expenses from US operations were $5.5 million for the year ended June 30, 2012 and $5.7 million for the prior year.
The primary reason for the decrease was that during the year ended June 30, 2012, we instituted expense reduction measures that
reduced our compensation, marketing, investor relations and legal expenses. We also expect a reduction in our selling, general
and administrative expenses in the future because of these expense reduction measures.
During the year ended
June 30, 2012, the Company determined that the value of intangible assets related to intellectual property licenses and intangible
assets related to the acquisition of TAAG were impaired. Accordingly, the Company recorded an impairment loss of $688,138 that
represents the unamortized value of intangible assets related to intellectual property licenses as of March 31, 2012.
During the year ended
June 30, 2012, the Company determined that the recorded value of goodwill of $233,385 that arose upon the acquisition of Pools
Press was impaired. Accordingly, during the year ended June 30, 2012, the Company recorded an impairment loss of $233,385
that represents the impairment of the goodwill.
Selling, general and
administrative expenses from TAAG was $5 million for the year ended June 30, 2012 and $1.3 million for the prior year. The primary
reason for the increase was that only three months of selling, general and administrative expenses from TAAG were included in
the prior year.
During the year ended
June 30, 2012, the Company determined that the value of goodwill and intangible assets related to the acquisition of TAAG were
impaired. Accordingly, the Company recorded an impairment loss of $1,602,638 that represents goodwill and the unamortized value
of intangible assets, offset by the earnout related to the acquisition of TAAG as of March 31, 2012.
Depreciation and Amortization
Depreciation and amortization
for the year ended June 30, 2012, amounted to $1,524,788, with $68,658 recorded under cost of revenue.
The amounts recorded
for US operations consist mostly of amortization of intellectual property licenses and customer lists. We expect a significant
reduction in amortization expense for US operations next year as the carrying value of the intangible assets related to intellectual
property licenses have been impaired and reduced to $0 in the current year. We expect depreciation expense for US operations to
remain at current levels during the 2013 fiscal year.
The amounts recorded
for TAAG are split between depreciation of mostly printing equipment and amortization of the customer list and covenant not to
compete. We expect depreciation expense for TAAG to decrease next year as certain printing equipment has been fully depreciated.
We also expect no amortization expense for TAAG next year as the carrying value of the intangible assets related to the acquisition
of TAAG have been impaired and reduced to $0 in the current year.
Interest Expense
Interest expense was
$220,665 for the year ended June 30, 2012 and $144,069 for the prior year, an increase of $76,596. The increase was primarily
attributable to the interest paid on capital leases for printing equipment by TAAG and on a credit line for US operations with
Silicon Valley Bank which provides a $4 million revolving line of credit secured by all of the assets of the Company, excluding
TAAG’s assets. We expect interest expense to remain at current levels during the 2013 fiscal year.
Income Tax Benefit
During the year ended
June 30, 2012, the Company also recorded an income tax benefit of $350,000 to reduce the deferred tax liability recorded upon the
acquisition of TAAG that was related to the intangible assets of TAAG written off in 2012.

The decrease in our
net loss from US operations for the year ended June 30, 2012 compared to the prior year, was primarily due to an increase in gross
profit and decrease in operating expenses as described above. We expect our net loss from US operations to decrease in the future
as we increase our gross margins and reduce operating expenses as described above.
Our net loss from TAAG
was $3 million for the year ended June 30, 2012 and $324,683 for the prior year. The primary reason for the increase was that only
three months of results from TAAG were included in the prior year.

Since our inception,
we have funded our operations primarily through private sales of equity securities and the exercise of warrants, which have provided
aggregate net cash proceeds to date of approximately $10,350,000, none of which was raised in the fiscal year ended June 30, 2012.
As of June 30, 2012,
we had cash and cash equivalents of $3,150,978 compared to $2,868,260 as of June 30, 2011, an increase $282,718. This increase
is primarily attributable to an increase in accounts payable of $2,509,219, a decrease of prepaid royalties of $830,533 and a decrease
of accounts receivable of $591,191, partially offset by payments of capital lease obligations of $868,006 and payments under line
of credit of $748,673.
We have a history
of significant losses. Historically, we have relied upon cash from financing activities to fund substantially all of the cash
requirements of our activities and have incurred significant losses and experienced negative cash flow. As of June 30, 2012, we
had an accumulated deficit of
$
14,184,160. For our fiscal years ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, we incurred a net loss of
$6,532,289 and $5,407,606, respectively. We cannot predict when we will become profitable or if we ever will become profitable.
We may continue to incur losses for an indeterminate period of time and may never achieve or sustain profitability. An extended
period of losses and negative cash flow may prevent us from successfully operating and expanding our business. Even if we are
able to achieve profitability, we may be unable to sustain or increase our profitability on a quarterly or annual basis.

US
Operations (Reprints)
|
The
Company believes that its current cash resources and cash flow from US operations will be sufficient to sustain current
US operations for the next twelve months. The Company expects to continue to produce cash from US operating activities;
however, there are no assurances that such results will be achieved. Cash provided by US operations was $155,580 and $379,705
for the years ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively.
The Company
believes that its current cash resources and cash flow from TAAG may not be sufficient to sustain TAAG operations for the next
twelve months. During the year ended June 30, 2012, TAAG incurred a net loss from operations of $3,000,000, and at June 30, 2012,
had a working capital deficiency of $2,300,000. In addition, $200,000 of payroll and VAT taxes were delinquent at June 30, 2012.
The Company’s line of credit with Silicon Valley Bank limits the amount of funding of TAAG to $50,000 and no additional financing
for TAAG is in place. Revenue from TAAG seems to have stabilized in early 2012, however, continuing net losses have been incurred.
Our overall strategy is to improve TAAG’s revenue, operations, and profitability. As a result, we have, and continue
to, perform financial and operational analysis on TAAG. We have replaced all executive and accounting management at TAAG
and hired a new executive manager and engaged a professional accounting services firm to ensure these improvements, however, there
is no assurance that such results will be achieved. In the event that TAAG liquidates our exposure to creditors in
France is limited to the assets of TAAG, with the exception of the property lease which is ultimately guaranteed by Derycz Scientific,
Inc. In the event that TAAG liquidates we could lose a significant percentage of revenue, or all revenue, from TAAG.
As a result, during the year ended June 30, 2012, the Company determined that the recorded values of goodwill of $1,344,219 and
intangible assets with a remaining net book value of $617,757 that arose upon the acquisition of TAAG were impaired. Accordingly,
during the year ended June 30, 2012, the Company recorded an impairment loss of $1,602,638 that represents the impairment of the
goodwill and the unamortized value of intangible assets, offset by the elimination of the earnout liability of $359,338 which we
estimate will no longer be payable. In addition, the Company also recorded an income tax benefit of $350,000 to reduce the
deferred tax liability recorded upon the acquisition of TAAG that was related to the intangible assets of TAAG written off in 2012.
Operating Activities
Our net cash provided
by operating activities was $1,968,462 for the year ended June 30, 2012 and resulted primarily from an increase in accounts payable
of $2,509,219, non-cash depreciation and amortization of $1,529,222, non-cash impairment losses of $2,514,161, a decrease of prepaid
royalties of $830,533 and a decrease of accounts receivable of $591,191, partially offset by a decrease in deferred income tax
liability of $350,000 as well as the net loss of $6,532,289 for the period.
Our net cash used in
operating activities was $5,093,021 for the year ended June 30, 2011 and resulted primarily from the net loss of $5,407,606 for
the period, a decrease of accounts payable of $922,159 and an increase of prepaid royalties of $531,585, partially offset by non-cash
stock compensation of $1,494,492 and non-cash depreciation and amortization of $750,190.
Investing Activities
Our net cash used in
investing activities was $409,957 for the year ended June 30, 2012 and resulted primarily from the purchase of intangible assets
and property and equipment.
Our net cash used
in investing activities was $161,600 for the year ended June 30, 2011 and resulted primarily from the cash acquired upon the acquisition
of TAAG, partially offset by the purchase of the remaining interest in Pools Press and the purchase of intangible assets and property
and equipment.
Financing Activities
Our net cash used in
financing activities was $1,488,373 for the year ended June 30, 2012 and resulted primarily from payments of capital lease obligations
of $868,006 and payments under line of credit of $748,673.
Our net cash provided
by financing activities was $6,282,240 for the year ended June 30, 2011 and resulted primarily from issuance of shares upon the
exercise of warrants of $2,484,187, issuance of common shares and warrants of $2,784,032, and advances under the line of credit
of $1,436,233.
The Company entered
into a Loan and Security Agreement with Silicon Valley Bank (“SVB”) on July 23, 2010, which as amended, provides for
a $4,000,000 revolving line of credit that matures on October 31, 2013. The SVB line of credit bears interest at the
prime rate plus 2.5% for periods in which the Company maintains an account balance with SVB (less all indebtedness owed to SVB)
of at least $800,000 at all times during the prior calendar month (the “Streamline Period”), and at the prime rate
plus 4.5% when a Streamline Period is not in effect. The interest rate on the line of credit was 6.5% as of
June
30, 2012
. The line of credit is secured by all of the Company’s and its subsidiaries’ assets,
excluding TAAG’s assets.
The line of credit
is subject to certain financial and performance covenants which the Company was in compliance with as of
June
30, 2012
. The balance outstanding as of
June 30, 2012
and June 30, 2011 was
$1,000,000 and $1,436,233, respectively. As of
June 30, 2012
and 2011, approximately
$1,875,000 and $202,000, respectively, of available credit was unused under the line of credit.
The Company, through
TAAG, has factoring agreements with ABN Amro (“ABN”) and Credit Cooperatif for working capital and credit administration
purposes. Under the agreements, the factors purchase trade accounts receivable assigned to them by the Company. The
accounts are sold at the invoice amount subject to a factor commission and other miscellaneous fees. Trade accounts
receivable not sold remain in the Company's custody and control and the Company maintains all credit risk on those accounts.
Under the agreement
with ABN, the Company can borrow up to approximately $1.3 million (Euro 1,000,000), limited to 40% of its trade accounts. The
factor fee is 0.26% of the customer invoice including VAT and interest is charged on the amount financed at the one month Euribor
interest rate plus 1.2%. The interest rate under the agreement was 1.72% per annum at June 30, 2012. As of June 30, 2012 and 2011,
$197,039 and $356,540 was due from ABN, respectively.
Under the agreement
with Credit Cooperatif, the Company can borrow up to approximately $325,000 (Euro 250,000). The factor fee is determined
on a case by case basis and is not specified in the agreement. The fee charged for the obligations outstanding as of June 30, 2012
was approximately 5%. As of June 30, 2012 and 2011, $256,636 and $312,440 was due to Credit Cooperatif, respectively.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
The Company does not have any off-balance
sheet arrangements.

ACCOUNTING FIRM
To the Board of Directors
Derycz Scientific, Inc. and Subsidiaries
Encino, California
We have audited the accompanying consolidated
balance sheets of Derycz Scientific, Inc. (the “Company”) and Subsidiaries as of June 30, 2012 and 2011, and the related
consolidated statements of operations and other comprehensive loss, stockholders’ equity (deficiency) and cash flows for
the years then ended. These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our
responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with
the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform
the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements are free of material misstatement.
The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting.
Our audit included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are
appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s
internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit includes examining, on a test basis,
evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used
and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall consolidated financial statement presentation.
We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the consolidated financial
statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of Derycz Scientific,
Inc. and Subsidiaries as of June 30, 2012 and 2011 and the consolidated results of their operations and their cash flows for the
years then ended in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
For the Years Ended
June
30, 2012
and 2011
Note 1. Organization, Nature of Business and Basis of Presentation
Organization
Derycz Scientific,
Inc. (the “Company”) was incorporated in the State of Nevada on November 2, 2006. Derycz Scientific is a
publicly traded holding company formerly with three wholly-owned subsidiaries: Reprints Desk, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Reprints”
or “Reprints Desk”); Techniques Appliquées aux Arts Graphiques, S.p.A., an entity organized under the laws of
France (“TAAG”); and Pools Press, Inc., an Illinois corporation (“Pools” or “Pools Press”).
On January 1, 2012, Pools Press was merged with and into Reprints Desk to form one consolidated subsidiary.
Nature of Business
Our mission is to provide
information logistics solutions that facilitate the flow of information from the publishers of scientific and technical content
to enterprise customers in life science and other research intensive industries around the world. We provide customers
with access to hundreds of thousands of newly published articles each year in addition to the tens of millions of existing articles
that have been published in the past, helping them to identify the most useful and relevant content for their purposes. We serve
both the publishers who own the content rights and the end-users of the content. We utilize web-based platforms as well as
traditional delivery channels and are developing products and services that make it easier for our customers to find and legally
use information. During the year ended June 30, 2012, we delivered more than 10 million articles in either hard copy or electronic
form to over 1,000 customers in over 100 countries.
We provide three types
of solutions to our customers; research solutions; marketing solutions; and publisher solutions.
Research Solutions
Researchers
and regulatory personnel generally order single copies of published materials, called “document delivery,” for use
in their research activities. In order to use the content, our customers must pay appropriate copyright fees and our services ensure
that we have obtained the necessary permissions from the owners of the published content so that our customers’ use of the
content complies with applicable copyright laws. We have developed Internet-based interfaces that allow customers to initiate orders
and manage transactions, at any time, by specifying the citation or other identifying information related to the particular article
they need. In some cases, we are able to fulfill the order without the need for action on the part of our employees. We also help
these customers to maximize the information resources they already own or have access to via subscriptions or internal libraries,
as well as organize workgroups to collaborate around scientific information. Our services alleviate the need for our customers
to develop internal systems or contact multiple publishers in order to obtain the required information.
Marketing Solutions
Generally,
marketing departments order large quantities of printed copies of published materials called “reprints” that they distribute
to interested parties, including customers and doctors who may prescribe a customer’s products. We print the reprints we
deliver to our customers whenever possible and are responsible for any logistics required to distribute such reprints. TAAG also
prints other materials that are used for marketing purposes and provides other printing logistics products and services. Electronic
copies, called “eprints,” are also used for distribution through the Internet and other electronic mechanisms. We have
also developed eprint software systems that increase the efficiency of our customers’ content purchases by transitioning
from paper reprints to electronic eprints. Our software systems also help to improve compliance with copyright and promotional
regulations within the life sciences industry.
Publisher Solutions
Our publisher
solutions include technology solutions and reprint management services, whereby we are responsible for all aspects of reprint and
eprint production for a publisher, from taking orders to final delivery. This service eliminates the need for the publishers to
establish a dedicated reprints sales force or arrange for delivery of reprinted materials. Our eprint software systems enable publishers
to protect their copyrighted content and support the marketing needs of their customers.
Liquidity
Historically, we have relied upon cash from financing activities to fund substantially all of
the cash requirements of our activities and have incurred significant losses and experienced negative cash flow. As of June 30,
2012, we had an accumulated deficit of
$
14,184,160. For our fiscal years ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, we incurred a net
loss of $6,532,289 and $5,407,606, respectively. We cannot predict when we will become profitable or if we ever will become profitable.
We may continue to incur losses for an indeterminate period of time and may never achieve or sustain profitability. An extended
period of losses and negative cash flow may prevent us from successfully operating and expanding our business. Even if we are
able to achieve profitability, we may be unable to sustain or increase our profitability on a quarterly or annual basis.

US
Operations
(Reprints)

The Company
believes that its current cash resources and cash flow from US operations will be sufficient to sustain current US operations
for the next twelve months. The Company expects to continue to produce cash from US operating activities; however, there are no
assurances that such results will be achieved. Cash provided by US operations was $155,580 and $379,705 for the years ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively.
The Company
believes that its current cash resources and cash flow from TAAG may not be sufficient to sustain TAAG operations for the next
twelve months. During the year ended June 30, 2012, TAAG incurred a net loss from operations of $3,000,000, and at June 30, 2012,
had a working capital deficiency of $2,300,000. In addition, $200,000 of payroll and VAT taxes were delinquent at June 30, 2012.
The Company’s line of credit with Silicon Valley Bank limits the amount of funding of TAAG to $50,000 and no additional
financing for TAAG is in place. Revenue from TAAG seems to have stabilized in early 2012, however, continuing net losses have
been incurred. Our overall strategy is to improve TAAG’s revenue, operations, and profitability. As a result,
we have, and continue to, perform financial and operational analysis on TAAG. We have replaced all executive and accounting
management at TAAG and hired a new executive manager and engaged a professional accounting services firm to ensure these improvements,
however, there is no assurance that such results will be achieved. In the event that TAAG liquidates our exposure
to creditors in France is limited to the assets of TAAG, with the exception of the property lease which is ultimately guaranteed
by Derycz Scientific, Inc. In the event that TAAG liquidates we could lose a significant percentage of revenue, or all
revenue, from TAAG. As a result, during the year ended June 30, 2012, the Company determined that the recorded values of
goodwill of $1,344,219 and intangible assets with a remaining net book value of $617,757 that arose upon the acquisition of TAAG
were impaired. Accordingly, during the year ended June 30, 2012, the Company recorded an impairment loss of $1,602,638 that
represents the impairment of the goodwill and the unamortized value of intangible assets, offset by the elimination of the earnout
liability of $359,338 which we estimate will no longer be payable. In addition, the Company also recorded an income tax
benefit of $350,000 to reduce the deferred tax liability recorded upon the acquisition of TAAG that was related to the intangible
assets of TAAG written off in 2012.
Reclassification
In presenting the
Company’s consolidated balance sheet as of June 30, 2011, the Company presented $6,296,566 as accounts payable, and $748,969
as accrued expense and other current liabilities. In presenting the Company’s consolidated balance sheet as of June 30,
2012, the Company has combined accounts payable and accrued expenses and other current liabilities to a single caption accounts
payable and accrued expenses.
In presenting the
Company’s consolidated statement of operations and other comprehensive loss for the year ended June 30, 2011, the Company
presented $618,976 of marketing and advertising expenses. In presenting the Company’s consolidated statement of operations
and other comprehensive loss for the year ended June 30, 2012, the Company has reclassified marketing and advertising expenses
to selling, general and administrative expenses.
Note 2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Principles of Consolidation
The accompanying financial statements are
consolidated and include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. Intercompany balances and transactions
have been eliminated in consolidation.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of
financial statements in conformity with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions
that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of
the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting periods. Actual results could differ
from these estimates.
These estimates and
assumptions include estimates for reserves of uncollectible accounts, inventory obsolescence, analysis of impairments of recorded
goodwill and intangibles, accruals for potential liabilities and assumptions made in valuing equity instruments issued for
services or acquisitions.
Cash and cash equivalents
For purposes of the
statements of cash flows, the Company defines cash equivalents as all highly liquid debt instruments purchased with a maturity
of three months or less.
Fair value of financial instruments
Effective January 1,
2008, fair value measurements are determined by the Company's adoption of authoritative guidance issued by the Financial Accounting
Standards Board (the “FASB”), with the exception of the application of the statement to non-recurring, non-financial
assets and liabilities as permitted. Fair value is defined in the authoritative guidance as the price that would be received to
sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly
transaction between market participants at the measurement date. A fair value hierarchy was established, which prioritizes the
inputs used in measuring fair value into three broad levels as follows:
Level 1 – Quoted
prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
Level 2 – Inputs,
other than the quoted prices in active markets, are observable either directly or indirectly.
Level 3 – Unobservable
inputs based on the Company's assumptions.
The Company is required
to use observable market data if such data is available without undue cost and effort. The Company has no fair value items required
to be disclosed as of June 30, 2012 or 2011.
Allowance for doubtful accounts
The Company evaluates
the collectability of its trade accounts receivable based on a number of factors. In circumstances where the Company becomes aware
of a specific customer’s inability to meet its financial obligations to the Company, a specific reserve for bad debts is
estimated and recorded, which reduces the recognized receivable to the estimated amount the Company believes will ultimately be
collected. In addition to specific customer identification of potential bad debts, bad debt charges are recorded based on the Company’s
historical losses and an overall assessment of past due trade accounts receivable outstanding. The Company established an
allowance for doubtful accounts of $163,455 and $223,298 as of June 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively.
Concentration of Credit Risk
Financial instruments,
which potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk, consist of cash and cash equivalents and accounts receivable.
The Company places its cash with high quality financial institutions and at times may exceed the FDIC $250,000 insurance limit.
The Company does not anticipate incurring any losses related to these credit risks. The Company extends credit based on an evaluation
of the customer's financial condition, generally without collateral. Exposure to losses on receivables is principally dependent
on each customer's financial condition. The Company monitors its exposure for credit losses and intends to maintain allowances
for anticipated losses, as required.
Cash denominated in Euros
with a US Dollar equivalent of $763,462 and $636,324 at June 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively, was held in accounts at
financial institutions located in Europe.
As of June 30, 2012,
one customer accounted for approximately 18% of accounts receivable, and no customer accounted for more than 10% of accounts receivable
at June 30, 2011. For the year ended June 30, 2012, one customer accounted for 11% of revenue, and one customer accounted
for 10% of revenue for the prior year.
During the year ended
June 30, 2012, three vendors accounted for 18%, 13% and 12% of the Company’s content costs, and two vendors accounted
for 22% and 14% of content costs during the prior year.
Property and equipment
Property and equipment
are stated at cost and are depreciated using the straight-line method over their estimated useful lives of 3 to 7 years. Leasehold
improvements are amortized over the shorter of the useful lives of the related assets, or the lease term. Expenditures for
maintenance and repairs are charged to operations as incurred while renewals and betterments are capitalized. Gains and losses
on disposals are included in the results of operations.
Goodwill and Intangible Assets
Management performs
impairment tests of goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets at least annually, or whenever an event occurs or circumstances
change that indicate impairment has more likely than not occurred.
The Company accounts
for acquisition of a business in accordance with guidance issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (the "FASB"),
which may result in the recognition of goodwill. Goodwill is related to the Company's acquisition of TAAG (see Note 3) in March
2011 and the acquisition of Pools Press in prior years. Goodwill is not amortized, rather, goodwill is assessed for
impairment at least annually. Management tests goodwill for impairment at the reporting unit level. The Company has
two reportable diverse geographical concentrations. The Company tests goodwill by using a two-step process. In the first step,
the fair value of the reporting unit is compared with the carrying amount of the reporting unit, including goodwill. If the carrying
amount of the reporting unit exceeds its fair value, goodwill is considered impaired and a second step is performed to measure
the amount of impairment loss, if any.
The Company reviews
intangible assets subject to amortization at least annually to determine if any adverse conditions exist or a change in circumstances
has occurred that would indicate impairment or a change in the remaining useful life. If the carrying value of an asset
exceeds its undiscounted cash flows, the Company writes down the carrying value of the intangible asset to its fair value in the
period identified. If the carrying value of assets is determined not to be recoverable, the Company records an impairment
loss equal to the excess of the carrying value over the fair value of the assets. The Company’s estimate of fair value
is based on the best information available, in the absence of quoted market prices. The Company generally calculates fair
value as the present value of estimated future cash flows that the Company expects to generate from the asset using a discounted
cash flow income approach as described above. If the estimate of an intangible asset’s remaining useful life is changed,
the Company amortizes the remaining carrying value of the intangible asset prospectively over the revised remaining useful life.
During the year ended
June 30, 2012, the Company determined that the recorded values of goodwill of $1,344,219 and intangible assets with a remaining
net book value of $617,757 that arose upon the acquisition of TAAG were impaired. Accordingly, during the year ended June
30, 2012, the Company recorded an impairment loss of $1,602,638 that represents the impairment of the goodwill and the unamortized
value of intangible assets as of March 31, 2012, offset by the elimination of the earnout liability of $359,338 which the Company
estimates will no longer be payable. In addition, the Company also recorded an income tax benefit of $350,000 to reduce the
deferred tax liability created upon the acquisition of TAAG that management determined was no longer necessary (See Note 3).
During the year ended
June 30, 2012, the Company determined that the recorded value of goodwill of $233,385 that arose upon the acquisition of Pools
Press was impaired. Accordingly, during the year ended June 30, 2012, the Company recorded an impairment loss of $233,385
that represents the impairment of the goodwill (See Note 4).
In addition, during
the year ended June 30, 2012, the Company determined that the recorded value of intangible assets related to intellectual property
licenses were impaired. Accordingly, during the year ended June 30, 2012, the Company recorded an impairment loss of $688,138
that represents the unamortized value of intangible assets related to intellectual property licenses as of March 31, 2012 (See
Note 6).
As of June 30, 2011,
the Company determined that there were no indicators of impairment of its recorded goodwill or intangible assets.
Revenue Recognition
The Company’s
policy is to recognize revenue when services have been performed, risk of loss and title to the product transfers to the customer,
the selling price is fixed or determinable, and collectability is reasonably assured. We generate revenue by providing three types
of services to our customers; document delivery; reprints and eprints; and printing and reprint management.
Document Delivery
Our business
model for document delivery services is based on charging our customers a copyright fee necessary to obtain permission of use from
the content owner (publisher), and a service fee for delivering the content. We have existing non-exclusive arrangements with many
publishers that provide us with electronic access to much of these publishers’ content, which allows us to deliver single
copies of such content to our customers in a more efficient and timely manner, often in a matter of minutes. The Company recognizes
revenue from document delivery services upon electronic delivery to the customer only when the selling price is fixed or determinable,
and collectability is reasonably assured.
Reprints
and eprints
Our business
model for reprints and eprints is based on charging a fee for aggregating and distributing multiple copies of published materials.
When possible, we obtain the right to print the reprints from the holder of the copyright and we print and ship the reprints ourselves.
We also have built systems that can provide controlled distribution of electronic copies or eprints. The Company recognizes revenue
from reprints and eprints services upon shipment or electronic delivery to the customer only when the selling price is fixed or
determinable, and collectability is reasonably assured.
Printing
and Reprint Management
Our business
model for printing is based on charging a fee for providing printing services and delivering hard copy materials to our customers
that are generally used for marketing purposes. In addition, we also provide other printing logistics products and services. These
services are complementary to our reprints and eprints, and reprint management services. The Company recognizes revenue from printing
services when the printed materials have been shipped to the customer only when the selling price is fixed or determinable, and
collectability is reasonably assured.
Stock-Based Compensation
The Company periodically
issues stock options and warrants to employees and non-employees in capital raising transactions, for services and for financing
costs. The Company accounts for share-based payments under the guidance as set forth in the
Share-Based Payment
Topic 718
of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification, which requires the measurement and recognition of compensation expense for all share-based
payment awards made to employees, officers, directors, and consultants, including employee stock options, based on estimated fair
values. The Company estimates the fair value of share-based payment awards to employees and directors on the date of grant using
an option-pricing model, and the value of the portion of the award that is ultimately expected to vest is recognized as expense
over the required service period in the Company's Statements of Operations. The Company accounts for stock option and warrant
grants issued and vesting to non-employees in accordance with Topic 718 of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification, whereby
the value of the stock compensation is based upon the measurement date as determined at either a) the date at which a performance
commitment is reached, or b) the date at which the necessary performance to earn the equity instruments is complete. Stock-based
compensation is based on awards ultimately expected to vest and is reduced for estimated forfeitures. Forfeitures are estimated
at the time of grant and revised, as necessary, in subsequent periods if actual forfeitures differ from those estimates.
Foreign Currency Translation
The accompanying consolidated
financial statements are presented in United States dollars, the functional currency of the Company. Capital accounts of foreign
subsidiaries are translated into US Dollars from foreign currency at their historical exchange rates when the capital transactions
occurred. Assets and liabilities are translated at the exchange rate as of the balance sheet date. Income and expenditures are
translated at the average exchange rate of the period. Although the majority of our revenue and costs are in US dollars, the revenues
and costs of TAAG are in Euros. As a result, currency exchange fluctuations may impact our revenue and the costs of our operations. We
currently do not engage in any currency hedging activities.
Net Income (Loss) Per Share
Current accounting
guidance requires presentation of basic earnings per share and diluted earnings per share. Basic net income (loss)
per share is computed by dividing the net income (loss) by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period.
Diluted income (loss) per share is computed similar to basic income (loss) per share except that the denominator is increased to
include the number of additional common shares that would have been outstanding if the potential common shares had been issued
and if the additional common shares were dilutive.
Loss per common share
is computed by dividing net loss by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the respective periods.
Basic and diluted loss per common share is the same for all periods presented because all warrants and stock options outstanding
are anti-dilutive.
The following potentially
dilutive securities have been excluded from the calculation of diluted net loss per share as they would be anti-dilutive because
the Company had net losses for the periods below:

Income taxes
The Company accounts
for income taxes using the asset and liability method whereby deferred tax assets are recognized for deductible temporary differences,
and deferred tax liabilities are recognized for taxable temporary differences. Temporary differences are the differences between
the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and their tax bases. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance when,
in the opinion of management, it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will be realized.
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are adjusted for the effects of changes in tax laws and rates on the date of enactment.
Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements
In May 2011, the
FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2011-04, “Amendments to Achieve Common Fair Value Measurement
and Disclosure Requirements in U.S. GAAP and IFRS”. ASU No. 2011-4 does not require additional fair value measurements
and is not intended to establish valuation standards or affect valuation practices outside of financial reporting. The ASU is effective
for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2011. The Company adopted ASU No. 2011-04 effective January 1,
2012 and it did not affect the Company’s results of operations, financial condition or liquidity.
In June 2011,
the FASB issued ASU No. 2011-05, “Presentation of Comprehensive Income”. The ASU eliminates the option to present
the components of other comprehensive income as part of the statement of changes in shareholders’ equity, and instead requires
consecutive presentation of the statement of net income and other comprehensive income either in a continuous statement of comprehensive
income or in two separate but consecutive statements. ASU No. 2011-5 is effective for interim and annual periods beginning
after December 15, 2011. The Company adopted ASU 2011-05 effective January 1, 2012 and it did not affect the Company’s
results of operations, financial condition or liquidity.
In September 2011,
the FASB issued ASU 2011-08, “Testing Goodwill for Impairment”, an update to existing guidance on the assessment of
goodwill impairment. This update simplifies the assessment of goodwill for impairment by allowing companies to consider qualitative
factors to determine whether it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount
before performing the two step impairment review process. It also amends the examples of events or circumstances that would be
considered in a goodwill impairment evaluation. The amendments are effective for annual and interim goodwill impairment tests performed
for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2011. The Company adopted ASU 2011-08 effective January 1, 2012. We do not believe
that the adoption of this new accounting guidance will have a significant effect on our goodwill impairment assessments in the
future.
In December 2011, the
FASB issued ASU No. 2011-11, “Balance Sheet (Topic 210): Disclosures about Offsetting Assets and Liabilities”. This
ASU requires an entity to disclose information about offsetting and related arrangements to enable users of its financial statements
to understand the effect of those arrangements on its financial position. ASU No. 2011-11 will be applied retrospectively and is
effective for annual and interim reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2013. The Company does not expect adoption
of this standard to have a material impact on its consolidated results of operations, financial condition, or liquidity.
Other recent accounting
pronouncements issued by the FASB (including its Emerging Issues Task Force), the AICPA, and the SEC did not or are not believed
by management to have a material impact on the Company's present or future consolidated financial statements.
Note 3. Acquisition of TAAG
On March 31, 2011,
the Company entered into an agreement with Fimmotaag, S.p.A., a privately held company, pursuant to which the Company acquired
100% of the issued and outstanding common stock of TAAG in exchange for 336,921 shares of the Company’s common stock in addition
to future payments payable under the terms of the purchase agreement (the “Earnout Payments”). TAAG is a printing and
logistics company located outside of Paris, France. The acquisition has been accounted for as a purchase in accordance with current
accounting guidance on business combinations. As such, the results of TAAG’s operations are included in the consolidated
financial statements beginning April 1, 2011. The purchase price of $1,572,254 consisted of the issuance of 336,921 shares of the
Company’s common stock, valued at $1,212,916, based on the trading price of the Company’s common stock on March 31,
2011 ($3.60 per share), as well as an estimate of the Earnout Payments of $359,338.
In accordance with
the purchase agreement, the seller will be entitled to the Earnout Payments based upon the future performance of the acquired company. The
amounts of the Earnout Payments are based on TAAG’s achievement of certain income before taxes targets during each of the
five years ending December 31, 2011 through December 31, 2015. Each year, the Earnout Payment will be calculated based
on the following formula: 20% of the first 200,000 Euros of net income before taxes of TAAG for the applicable year; plus 30% of
the net income before taxes of TAAG between 200,000 and 300,000 Euros; plus 40% of the net income before taxes of TAAG in excess
of 300,000 Euros. Earnout Payments can be paid in cash or the Company’s common stock at Fimmotaag’s discretion. The
Company initially recorded a liability of $359,338 as of June 30, 2011 for the expected Earnout Payments based on the earnings
estimates for TAAG during the earnout period. Due to the results of operations to date, the Company no longer believes such amount
will be payable and has reversed the accrual as of June 30, 2012.

The Company believes
that its current cash resources and cash flow from TAAG may not be sufficient to sustain TAAG operations for the next twelve months.
The Company’s line of credit with Silicon Valley Bank limits the amount of funding of TAAG to $50,000 and no additional financing
for TAAG is in place. Revenue from TAAG has seen a recent decline and continuing net losses have been incurred. Our overall
strategy is to improve TAAG’s revenue, operations, and profitability. As a result, we have, and continue to, perform
financial and operational analysis on TAAG. We have replaced all executive and accounting management at TAAG and hired a
new executive manager and engaged a professional accounting services firm to ensure these improvements, however, there is no assurance
that such results will be achieved. In the event that TAAG liquidates our exposure to creditors in France is limited
to the assets of TAAG, with the exception of the property lease which is ultimately guaranteed by Derycz Scientific, Inc. In the
event that TAAG liquidates we could lose a significant percentage of revenue, or all revenue, from TAAG.
During the year ended
June 30, 2012, the Company determined that the recorded values of goodwill of $1,344,219 and intangible assets with a remaining
net book value of $617,757 that arose upon the acquisition of TAAG were impaired. Accordingly, during the year ended June
30, 2012, the Company recorded an impairment loss of $1,602,638 that represents the impairment of the goodwill and the unamortized
value of intangible assets, offset by the elimination of the earnout liability of $359,338 which the Company estimates will no
longer be payable. In addition, during the year ended June 30, 2012, the Company also recorded an income tax benefit of $350,000
to reduce the deferred tax liability created upon the acquisition of TAAG that management determined was no longer necessary.

Note 4. Acquisition of Remaining Interest in Pools Press
On August 31, 2010,
the Company purchased for $120,000 the remaining 20% interest in Pools Press. Upon acquisition of the remaining interest,
the accumulated losses attributable to the minority interest in Pools Press at the time of the acquisition of $34,904 was added
to paid in capital and the Company decreased paid in capital for the purchase price of $120,000.
During the year ended
June 30, 2012, the Pools Press subsidiary continued to have losses, and the Company merged the operations of Pools Press into Reprints
Desk. At that time, the Company determined that it would no longer be practical to measure the operations of Pools Press. Accordingly,
the Company determined that the recorded value of goodwill of $233,385 that arose upon the acquisition of Pools Press should be
impaired based upon its prior losses. Accordingly, during the year ended June 30, 2012, the Company recorded an impairment
loss of $233,385 that represents the impairment of the goodwill.

The Company entered
into a Loan and Security Agreement with Silicon Valley Bank (“SVB”) on July 23, 2010, which as amended, provides for
a $4,000,000 revolving line of credit that matures on October 31, 2013. On February 8, 2012, the Company entered into
an Amendment to the Loan and Security Agreement pursuant to which SVB waived our failure to comply with the minimum tangible net
worth financial covenant set forth in the Loan Agreement for the compliance period ending December 31, 2011, the parties agreed
to amend the minimum tangible net worth required for various periods in calendar year 2012, and the parties agreed that the principal
amount outstanding under the revolving line shall accrue interest at the prime rate plus 2.5% for periods in which the Company
maintains an account balance with SVB (less all indebtedness owed to SVB) of at least $800,000 at all times during the prior calendar
month (the “Streamline Period”), and at the prime rate plus 4.5% when a Streamline Period is not in effect. The interest
rate on the line of credit was 6.5% as of
June 30, 2012
. The line of credit is secured
by all of the Company’s and its subsidiaries’ assets, excluding TAAG’s assets.
The line of credit
is subject to certain financial and performance covenants which the Company was in compliance with as of
June
30, 2012

receivable not sold remain in the Company's custody and control and the Company maintains all credit risk on those accounts.
Under the agreement
with ABN, the Company can borrow up to approximately $1.3 million (Euro 1,000,000), limited to 40% of its trade accounts. The
factor fee is 0.26% of the customer invoice including VAT and interest is charged on the amount financed at the one month Euribor
interest rate plus 1.2%. The interest rate under the agreement was 1.72% per annum at June 30, 2012. As of June 30, 2012 and 2011,

The intrinsic value
for all warrants outstanding as of
June 30, 2012
was $36,000, based on the fair value of the
Company’s common stock on June 30, 2012.
On July 1, 2011, the
Company issued warrants to purchase an aggregate of 5,000 shares of the Company’s common stock to two consultants in exchange
for services. All of these warrants vested immediately and expire on July 1, 2016. 2,500 of the warrants have an exercise
price of $3.50 per share, and 2,500 of the warrants have an exercise price of $4.00 per share. The fair value of the warrants,
as calculated pursuant to the Black-Scholes option-pricing model, was determined to be $8,614, and was charged to operations during
the year ended June 30, 2012. The fair value of the warrants was calculated using the following assumptions: term of 5 years; expected
volatility of 73%; no dividend yield, and risk-free interest rate of 0.92%.
On July 17, 2011, the
Company agreed to extend to July 17, 2012 the expiration date of then outstanding warrants to purchase 200,009 shares of the Company’s
common stock at an exercise price of $2.00 per share. The warrant holders agreed to relinquish the cashless exercise feature of
the warrants in exchange for the extension of the expiration date. On July 17, 2011, the fair value of the warrant extension, as
calculated pursuant to the Black-Scholes option-pricing model, was determined to be $264,714, and was charged to operations during
the year ended
June 30, 2012
. The fair value of the warrant extension was calculated using the
following assumptions: term of 1 year; expected volatility of 73%; no dividend yield, and risk-free interest rate of 0.92%.
In October and December
2010, the Company issued warrants to purchase an aggregate of 1,000,000 shares of the Company’s common stock to two consultants
for services to be rendered under consulting agreements with the Company. All of the consultant warrants have a four-year exercise
term. Warrants to purchase 400,000 common shares, exercisable at $1.25 per share, vested immediately. Of the aggregate issuance,
warrants to purchase 333,333 shares are exercisable at $1.75 per share and warrants to purchase 266,667 shares are exercisable
at $2.25 per share, all of which vest over a one-year period. In the periods prior to July 1, 2011, the Company recorded
$1,175,748 of compensation cost relating to the vesting of these warrants based on their fair value at the reporting date. At
September 30, 2011, the warrants fully vested and the Company determined that the fair value of the unvested warrants upon vesting
was $727,910 as calculated using the Black Scholes option pricing model with the following assumptions; no dividend yield, risk
free interest rate of 4.5%, expected volatility of 73%, and an expected term of the warrants of 4 years. The fair value of
$727,910 reflected a decrease of $447,838 from the fair value of $1,175,748 at June 30, 2011. As such the Company recognized a
gain of $447,838 during the year ended
June 30, 2012
.
In November 2010, the
Company issued to three members of the board of directors warrants to purchase an aggregate of 150,000 shares of the Company’s
common stock at an exercise price of $1.25 per share. Each of the warrants is subject to the following vesting schedule: 12,500
shares vested and became exercisable under the warrant on each of December 31, 2010, March 31, 2011, June 30, 2011 and September
30, 2011. Each warrant expires on November 5, 2015. The fair market value of the warrants upon issuance was $161,304 calculated
using a Black-Scholes pricing model with the following assumptions; no dividend yield, risk free interest rate of 4.5%, expected
volatility of 73%, and an expected term of the warrants of 4 years. Stock based compensation cost of $40,326 was recorded
during the year ended
June 30, 2012
for warrants vesting during the period.
On August 4, 2011,
warrant holders exercised warrants to purchase 462,502 shares of the Company’s common stock on a cashless basis. The Company
issued 246,928 shares of common stock as a result of those exercises.
On December 19, 2011,
the Company issued to three members of the board of directors warrants to purchase an aggregate of 150,000 shares of the Company’s
common stock at an exercise price of $1.19 per share. All of the warrants vested immediately and expire on December 19, 2021. The
fair market value of the warrants upon issuance was $161,773 calculated using a Black-Scholes pricing model with the following
assumptions; no dividend yield, risk free interest rate of 1.95%, expected volatility of 148%, and an expected term of the warrants
of 5 years. Stock based compensation cost of $161,773 was recorded during the year ended

Publisher Agreements
The Company has entered
into agreements with publishers wherein the publishers have granted the Company an exclusive right to sell certain reprints of
each of the publishers’ publications. One such agreement with a publisher was amended on January 10, 2012, and was replaced
with a new agreement on May 31, 2012. The original agreement, dated July 15, 2010, called for fixed royalty payments through December
2015. The agreement was amended on January 10, 2012, replacing fixed royalty payments with percentage of revenue royalty payments
and included minimum annual payment thresholds beginning on January 1, 2012. The amended agreement was replaced with an entirely
new agreement on May 31, 2012. The new agreement grants the Company the non-exclusive right to sell certain reprints of the publishers’
publications in return for percentage of revenue royalty payments, and is effective June 1, 2012. The new agreement does not call
for any guaranteed payments or minimum payment amounts, and can be terminated by either party upon 45 days written notice.
From July 1, 2010, through December 31,
2011, the Company recorded the cost of each of these contracts on a straight line basis over the terms of the agreements. Beginning
on January 1, 2012 the Company recorded as a cost the percentage of revenue royalty payments called for in the respective amended
agreement, or entirely new publisher agreement. During the years ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, the Company charged $3,965,708 and
$4,465,313 of these costs to cost of revenue, respectively.
Legal Proceedings
The Company is involved
in legal proceedings in the ordinary course of its business. Although management of the Company cannot predict the ultimate outcome
of these legal proceedings with certainty, it believes that the ultimate resolution of the Company’s legal proceedings,
including any amounts it may be required to pay, will not have a material effect on the Company’s consolidated financial
statements.

The Company has provided
a valuation allowance on the deferred tax assets at June 30, 2012 to reduce such asset to zero, since there is no assurance that
the Company will generate future taxable income to utilize such asset. Management will review this valuation allowance requirement
periodically and make adjustments as warranted. The net change in the valuation allowance for the year ended June 30,
2012 was an increase of $967,190.
At June 30, 2012 and
2011, the Company had federal net operating loss (“NOL”) carryforwards of approximately $6,900,000 and $5,000,000,
respectively, and state NOL carryforwards of approximately $6,000,000 and $4,100,000, respectively. Federal NOLs could, if unused,
expire in 2030. State NOLs, if unused, could expire in 2020.
Effective January 1,
2007, the Company adopted FASB guidelines that address the determination of whether tax benefits claimed or expected to be claimed
on a tax return should be recorded in the financial statements. Under this guidance, we may recognize the tax benefit from an uncertain
tax position only if it is more likely than not that the tax position will be sustained on examination by the taxing authorities,
based on the technical merits of the position. The tax benefits recognized in the financial statements from such a position should
be measured based on the largest benefit that has a greater than fifty percent likelihood of being realized upon ultimate settlement.
This guidance also provides guidance on derecognition, classification, interest and penalties on income taxes, accounting in interim
periods and requires increased disclosures. At the date of adoption, and as of June 30, 2012 and 2011, the Company did not have
a liability for unrecognized tax benefits, and no adjustment was required at adoption.
The Company files income
tax returns in the U.S. federal jurisdiction and various states. The Company is subject to U.S. federal or state income tax examinations
by tax authorities for years after 2007.
The Company’s
policy is to record interest and penalties on uncertain tax provisions as income tax expense. As of June 30, 2012 and 2011, the
Company has no accrued interest or penalties related to uncertain tax positions. Additionally, tax years 2007 through 2012 remain
open to examination by the major taxing jurisdictions to which the Company is subject.
Note 14. Geographical Information

On August 1, 2012 Reprints
Desk Latin America S. de R.L. de C.V, entered into a lease agreement for approximately 280 square meters of office space in Monterrey,
Mexico. The lease requires monthly payments of $1,300 (18,000 Mexican pesos) through July 2013.
Item 9. Changes in and Disagreements With Accountants on
Accounting and Financial Disclosure.
There were no changes in or disagreements
with our accountants on accounting and financial disclosure during the last two fiscal years.
Item 9A. Controls and Procedures
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
The Company’s
management, with the participation of its Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, evaluated the effectiveness of the
Company’s disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this Annual Report on Form 10-K. For
purposes of this section, the term
disclosure controls and procedures
means controls and other procedures of an issuer that
are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the issuer in the reports that it files or submits under the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within
the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation,
controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by an issuer in the reports that it files
or submits under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to the issuer's management, including its principal executive
and principal financial officers, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required
disclosure.
As
described below, a material weakness was identified in our internal control over financial reporting. The Public Company Accounting
Oversight Board’s Auditing Standard No. 2 defines a material weakness as a significant deficiency, or combination of significant
deficiencies, that results in more than a remote likelihood that a material misstatement of the annual or interim consolidated
financial statements will not be prevented or detected. As a result of the material weakness, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief
Financial Officer have concluded that, as of June 30, 2012, the end of the period covered by this report, our disclosure controls
and procedures were not effective at a reasonable assurance level.
Management’s Report on Internal Control over Financial
Reporting
Our management is responsible
for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting. Internal control over financial reporting
is defined in Rule 13a-15(f) or 15d-15(f) promulgated under the Exchange Act as a process designed by, or under the supervision
of, the company's principal executive and principal financial officers and effected by the company's board of directors, management
and other personnel, to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial
statements for external purposes in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and
includes those policies and procedures that:
|
(i)
|
Pertain to the maintenance of records that in reasonable detail accurately and fairly reflect the
transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company;
|
|
(ii)
|
Provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation
of financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and that receipts
and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company;
and
|
|
(iii)
|
Provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition,
use or disposition of the company's assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.
|
Because
of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Projections of
any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes
in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate. All internal control systems,
no matter how well designed, have inherent limitations. Therefore, even those systems determined to be effective can provide only
reasonable assurance with respect to financial statement preparation and presentation. Because of the inherent limitations of internal
control, there is a risk that material misstatements may not be prevented or detected on a timely basis by internal control over
financial reporting. However, these inherent limitations are known features of the financial reporting process. Therefore, it is
possible to design into the process safeguards to reduce, though not eliminate, this risk.
Management
evaluated the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of June 30, 2012, using the framework set
forth in the report of the Treadway Commission’s Committee of Sponsoring Organizations (“COSO”),
“Internal Control — Integrated Framework.” As a result of management’s evaluation of our internal
control over financial reporting, management identified a material weakness in our internal control. Specifically, management
concluded that there was inadequate monitoring controls, and a lack of personnel with a sufficient understanding of U.S.
GAAP, at our foreign subsidiary TAAG (France). As a result of the material weakness, management has concluded that our
internal control over financial reporting was not effective as of June 30, 2012.
Additional Information Regarding the
Material Weakness(es)
To address the material
weaknesses described above, we performed additional analysis and procedures to ensure that the consolidated financial statements
were prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. Accordingly, management believes that the consolidated
financial statements included in this report fairly present in all material respects the company’s financial position, results
of operations and cash flows for the periods presented. To remediate the material weakness described above and enhance our internal
control over financial reporting, we have replaced all executive and accounting management at TAAG and hired a new executive manager
and engaged a professional accounting services firm to prepare and review account reconciliations and perform a monthly financial
statement close in a timely manner.
Inherent Limitations on the Effectiveness
of Controls
Management does not
expect that our disclosure controls and procedures or our internal control over financial reporting will prevent or detect all
errors and all fraud. A control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance
that the objectives of the control systems are met. Further, the design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are
resource constraints, and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs. Because of the inherent limitations
in a cost-effective control system, no evaluation of internal control over financial reporting can provide absolute assurance that
misstatements due to error or fraud will not occur or that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, have been or will
be detected.
These inherent limitations
include the realities that judgments in decision-making can be faulty and that breakdowns can occur because of a simple error or
mistake. Controls can also be circumvented by the individual acts of some persons, by collusion of two or more people, or by management
override of the controls. The design of any system of controls is based in part on 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. Projections of any evaluation of controls effectiveness to future periods are subject to risks. Over time, controls
may become inadequate because of changes in conditions or deterioration in the degree of compliance with policies or procedures.
Changes in Internal Controls Over Financial Reporting
Management
has evaluated, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, whether any changes in our internal
control over financial reporting that occurred during our last fiscal year have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to
materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting. Based on the evaluation we conducted, management has concluded
that no such changes have occurred. However, management believes the measures that have been implemented to remediate the material
weakness have had a material impact on our internal control over financial reporting, and anticipates that these measures and other
ongoing enhancements will continue to have a material impact on our internal control over financial reporting in future periods.

Business Experience Descriptions
Peter Derycz – Chief
Executive Officer, President and Chairman
Mr. Derycz founded
Reprints as its President in 2006. Mr. Derycz was a founder of Infotrieve, Inc. in 1989 and served as its President from February
2003 until September 2003. He served as the Chief Executive Officer of Puerto Luperon, Ltd. (Bahamas), a real estate development
company, from January 2004 until December 2005. In January 2006, he was appointed to, and currently serves as a member of, the
board of directors of Insignia Systems, Inc., a consumer products advertising company. Mr. Derycz received a B.A. in Psychology
from the University of California at Los Angeles. The Board believes that Mr. Derycz’ familiarity with the Company’s
day-to-day operations, his strategic vision for the Company’s business and his past leadership and management experience
make him uniquely qualified to serve as a director.
Alan Urban – Chief
Financial Officer and Secretary
Mr.
Urban has previously served in numerous senior management positions, including: from 2000 to 2004, Vice President of Finance and
Treasurer for Infotrieve; from 2005 to 2006, Chief Financial Officer of a leading online poker company, where he led the global
reorganization of the company and was responsible for positioning the company for listing on the London Stock Exchange; and from
2007 to 2009, Chief Financial Officer of ReachLocal (RLOC), an internet marketing company that ranked #1 on Deloitte’s Tech
Fast 500 and was the first Internet company since Google’s appearance in 2004 to be ranked #1. Mr. Urban has also held positions
as an audit and tax manager in public accounting, and as an internal auditor. He holds a BS in Business, with a concentration in
Accounting Theory and Practice, from California State University, Northridge and has been a Certified Public Accountant (currently
inactive) since 1998.
Scott Ahlberg
– Head of Corporate Services of Reprints Desk
Mr. Ahlberg has many
years of experience in content and startup businesses. Mr. Ahlberg started with Dynamic Information (EbscoDoc) in the 1980s, then
went on to lead Sales and Marketing at Infotrieve, Inc. during many years of rapid growth in the 1990s. After leaving Infotrieve
in 2005 Mr. Ahlberg provided consulting services to ventures in professional networking and medical podcasting. He joined Reprints
Desk in 2006. His areas of expertise include strategic planning, operational innovation, copyright and content licensing, and quality
management. Scott has degrees from Stanford University (BA, 1984) and the University of London (MA, 1990).
Janice Peterson – Head

Ms. Peterson was Vice
President for Content Development at Infotrieve, Inc. from 2000 to 2006 and Vice President for Publisher Relations and Content

degree in History from Whittier College and an M.A. in Asian Studies from California State College, San Diego. She joined Reprints
in 2006. The Board believes that Ms. Peterson should serve as a director due to her extensive industry-specific knowledge and business
experience, including a familiarity with the Company’s day-to-day operations.
General Merrill McPeak – Director
Gen. McPeak is President
of McPeak and Associates, a company he founded in 1995. From 1990 until his retirement from active military service in late-1994,
he was chief of staff of the U.S. Air Force. During this period, he was the senior officer responsible for organization, training
and equipage of a combined active duty, National Guard, Reserve and civilian work force of over 850,000 people serving at 1,300
locations in the United States and abroad. As a member of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, he and the other service chiefs were military
advisors to the Secretary of Defense and the President. Gen. McPeak has been a director on the boards of a dozen publicly traded
companies, including long service with the airline, TWA, and with the test and measurement company, Tektronix. He was for many
years Chairman of the Board of ECC, International, until that company was acquired by Cubic Corporation. Currently, Gen. McPeak
is a director of Del Global Technologies (OTC: DGTC.OB), Genesis Biopharma (GNDP.OB), and Miller Energy Resources, (NASDAQ: MILL).
He is chairman of the board of Coast Plating, Inc., a California-based privately held provider of metal processing and finishing
services and is a director of privately held NAVEX Global and Sensis Corp., a manufacturer of air defense radars and air traffic
control equipment. The Board concluded that Gen. McPeak should serve as a director in light of his demonstrated leadership abilities
and years of experience serving on the boards of directors of numerous publicly traded corporations.

the President of AFIN International, Inc., a private equity/business advisory firm, which he founded in 2006. Additionally,

company that brought strategic partners, expertise and investment capital to the Middle East and North Africa. Mr. Ogilvie
previously served as Chief Operating Officer of CIC Group, Inc., an investment manager, a position he held from 2001 to 2007.
He began his career as a corporate and securities lawyer with Hill, Farrer & Burrill, and has extensive public and private
corporate management and board experience in finance, real estate, and technology companies. Mr. Ogilvie currently serves
on the board of directors of Neuralstem, Inc. (NYSE AMEX:CUR), Preferred Voice Inc. (OTCBB:PRFV), and Genspera, Inc. (GNSZ; OTCBB).
Mr. Ogilvie received a BSBA-Finance degree from the University of Denver (1976), and a Juris Doctor degree from the University
of California, Hastings College of Law (1979). In light of Mr. Ogilvie’s financial and executive experience, including
his experience having served as a director and audit committee member of several public companies, the Board believes it to be
in the Company’s best interests that Mr. Ogilvie serves as a director.

of Science from the University of Southern California (Lloyd Greif Center for Entrepreneurial Studies), and holds a JD/MBA

businesses.

Equity Compensation Plan Information
In December 2007, we
established the 2007 Equity Compensation Plan (the “Plan”). The Plan was approved by our Board of Directors and security
holders holding a majority of the shares of our common stock outstanding. The purpose of the Plan is to grant stock and stock options
to purchase our common stock to our employees and key consultants. The total amount of shares subject to the Plan is 1,500,000
shares. As of September 24, 2012, we had granted 1,471,167 options under the Plan. The following table provides information as
of June 30, 2012 with respect to the Plan, which is the only compensation plan under which our equity securities are authorized
for issuance.

Item 13. Certain Relationships
and Related Transactions, and Director Independence.
Other than the transactions described herein,
since July 1, 2010, there has not been, nor is there currently proposed, any transaction or series of similar transactions to which
we were or will be a party:
|
·
|
in which the amount involved exceeds the lesser of $120,000 or one percent
of the average of our total assets at year end for the last two completed fiscal years; and
|
|
·
|
in which any director, executive officer, shareholder who beneficially
owns 5% or more of our common stock or any member of their immediate family had or will have a direct or indirect material interest.

Director Independence
Our Board of Directors
has determined that Gen. McPeak, Mr. Ogilvie and Mr. Suess are independent directors as that term is defined by Section 303A.02(a)
of the New York Stock Exchange Listed Company Manual. Each of them is also a member of the Company’s audit committee,
compensation committee and nominating and corporate governance committee, and each of them meets the NYSE Amex’s independence
standards for members of such committees. The Board of Directors has determined that Mr. Ogilvie qualifies as an audit
committee financial expert serving on the audit committee.

Audit
Fees c
onsist of amounts billed for professional services rendered for the audit of our annual consolidated financial statements
included in our Annual Reports on Form 10-K, and reviews of our interim consolidated financial statements included in our Quarterly
Reports on Form 10-Q and our Registration Statement on Form S-1, including amendments thereto.
Audit-Related Fees
consist of fees billed for professional services that are reasonably related to the performance of the audit or review of our
consolidated financial statements but are not reported under “Audit Fees.”
Tax Fees
consist
of fees for professional services for tax compliance activities, including the preparation of federal and state tax returns and
related compliance matters.
All Other Fees
consists
of amounts billed for services other than those noted above.
Prior to November 2010,
we did not have an independent audit committee and the full Board of Directors, therefore, served as the audit committee for all
purposes relating to communication with our auditors and responsibility for our audits occurring prior to November 2010. Our audit
committee or Board of Directors, as applicable has considered whether the provision of the services described above for the fiscal
years ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, is compatible with maintaining the auditor’s independence.
All audit and non-audit
services that may be provided by our principal accountant to us shall require pre-approval by the audit committee of our Board
of Directors. Further, our auditor shall not provide those services to us specifically prohibited by the SEC, including bookkeeping
or other services related to the accounting records or financial statements of the audit client; financial information systems
design and implementation; appraisal or valuation services, fairness opinion, or contribution-in-kind reports; actuarial services;
internal audit outsourcing services; management functions; human resources; broker-dealer, investment adviser, or investment banking
services; legal services and expert services unrelated to the audit; and any other service that the Public Company Accounting Oversight
Board determines, by regulation, is impermissible.
