NEW YORK HEALTH CARE, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited)
September 30, 2007 and 2006
 
NOTE 1 - ORGANIZATION, RECENT DEVELOPMENTS AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES:  

Organization and Basis of Consolidation:  
            
New York Health Care, Inc. (“New York Health Care”) was organized under the laws of the State of New York in 1983. New York Health Care provides services of registered nurses and paraprofessionals to patients throughout New York. The BioBalance Corp (“BioBalance”) a Delaware corporation was formed in May 2001. BioBalance is a biopharmaceutical company focused on the development of treatments for gastrointestinal diseases that are poorly addressed by current therapies. BioBalance is pursuing prescription drug development of its lead product, PROBACTRIX® for the prevention of pouchitis. On March 24, 2006, the Company received approval from the FDA to start Phase II clinical trials. There can be no assurance that BioBalance will complete the clinical trials or be successful in marketing any such products. The consolidated entity, collectively referred to, unless the context otherwise requires, as the “Company”, “we”, “our” or similar pronouns, includes New York Health Care and its wholly-owned subsidiary BioBalance.

The accompanying interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared by the Company without audit, in accordance with the instructions for Form 10-Q pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) and therefore do not include all information and notes normally provided in the annual financial statements and should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and the notes thereto included in Form 10-K of New York Health Care, Inc. for the year ended December 31, 2006 as filed on April 19, 2007 with the SEC.

The accompanying interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. The Company's recurring losses and negative working capital raises substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty. Management’s plans in connection with this matter includes continued cost cutting measures in BioBalance in connection with the temporary scaling back of operations and seeking additional capital to fund BioBalance operations.

In the opinion of the Company, the accompanying unaudited financial statements contain all adjustments (which consist of normal and recurring adjustments) necessary for a fair presentation of the financial statements. The results of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2007 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year.

Recent Developments:

On March 30, 2006, the Company was served with a shareholder derivative complaint captioned Jay Glatzer v. Yitz Grossman, Emerald Asset Management, Murray Englard, Michael Nafash, Stuart Ehrlich, and Dennis O'Donnell and New York Health Care, Inc., (Supreme Court of State of New York County of Nassau, (Index No. 5125/06). The lawsuit alleged that the directors breached their fiduciary duty by approving the Emerald Settlement Agreement disclosed in the Company's Form 8-K (Date of Report March 6, 2006) filed with the Securities Exchange Commission on March 10, 2006. The lawsuit claimed that such breach was a product of their respective relationships with Mr. Grossman. The lawsuit also alleged that Mr. Grossman and Emerald Asset Management injured the Company by engaging in the actions underlying the November 2004 criminal conviction of Mr. Grossman. The lawsuit was dismissed in September 2006. A notice of appeal was filed by the plaintiff in October 2006 and the plaintiff filed its appeal brief in April 2007.

As of September 30, 2007, BioBalance had cash on hand of $30,595, all of which was available to fund operations. BioBalance estimates that its capital requirements for 2007 would be approximately $5,000,000 if it had not scaled back operations. This estimate includes the cost of an initial $3,000,000 up front payment for the Phase I/II clinical trial for the Company's lead product. The balance of approximately $2,000,000 would be required for product development and maintenance and administrative overhead. However, management has temporarily scaled back operations because of a lack of available funds and adjusted the 2007 budget to reflect that its capital requirements for the remainder of 2007 will be approximately $300,000. This budget assumes that BioBalance will continue to operate using existing funds, proceeds from the health care operations and/or the sale of additional securities. It will be necessary for the Company to secure additional funding in order for BioBalance to begin the Phase I/II clinical trial, which was approved by FDA on March 24, 2006. The Company has not been able to obtain such additional funding up to the present time, and the BioBalance subsidiary has been operating solely by utilizing funds from the health care operations, which are insufficient for BioBalance's 2007 capital needs.
F-4


The Company is in continuing discussions with potential funding sources to fund BioBalance operations, but no agreements with any such funding sources have been entered into. Accordingly, since additional funding from outside sources has not been obtained, the Company began scaling back the operations of BioBalance at the end of November 2006, and BioBalance has been operating on a substantially reduced budget starting in June 2007. BioBalance management has taken steps to secure the data from clinical trials and has authorized the production of a duplicate of the biological strain of ProBactrix to maintain its viability, pending the receipt of funding for the clinical studies discussed above. Additionally, BioBalance surrendered its office space to the landlord in March 2007 in exchange for lease cancellation, incurring exit costs of approximately $36,000. Management is negotiating temporary cutbacks in consultant compensation until such time as additional funds or a strategic partner can be found. There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to raise additional capital in the near term to allow BioBalance to resume full operations and undertake the Phase I/II clinical trial.

Effective August 20, 2007, the Board of Directors appointed Murry Englard Chief Executive Officer of the Company. Prior to such appointment, Mr. Englard was serving as Acting Chief Executive Officer and a Director. Mr. Englard will continue to serve as a Director of the Company. Mr. Englard will receive a monthly salary of $8,333 for his services as Chief Executive Officer. The term for Mr. Englard’s service as Chief Executive Officer will be one year, renewable monthly, and the Company will continue its search for a full-time Chief Executive Officer.

Effective August 20, 2007, Mr. Englard was granted, as part of his compensation for his services as Chief Executive Officer and a Director, the option to acquire up to 150,000 shares of the Company’s common stock pursuant to the Company’s 2004 Stock Incentive Plan, which options shall vest and be exercisable on the date of grant, at an exercise price of $0.15 per share. The Company recorded an expense of $12,000 in connection with this grant.

Effective August 20, 2007, the Board of Directors appointed Dr. Howard Berg to the newly-created non-executive position of Chairman for Product Development. Dr. Berg will receive compensation of $2,000 per month for his services in such position. This position includes oversight and maintenance of BioBalance's ProBactrix studies, oversight of product development studies, and oversight of clinical research. Dr. Berg will continue to serve as a Director of the Company. No written employment agreement has been entered into between Dr. Berg and the Company.

Effective as of August 20, 2007, Dr. Berg was granted, as part of his compensation for his services as Chairman of Product Development and a Director, the option to acquire up to 75,000 shares of the Company’s common stock pursuant to the Company’s 2004 Stock Incentive Plan, which options shall vest and be exercisable on the date of grant, in accordance with the Plan at an exercise price of $0.15 per share. The Company recorded an expense of $6,000 in connection with this grant.

 
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 disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements:
 
In February, 2007, FASB issued SFAS No. 159, The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities including an amendment of FAS 115, or FAS 159. This statement provides companies with an option to report selected financial assets and liabilities at fair value. This statement is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007 with early adoption permitted. We are assessing FAS No. 159 and have not yet determined the impact that the adoption of FAS No. 159 will have on our results of operations or financial position, if any.

In September 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 158 Employers' Accounting for Defined Benefit Pension and Other Postretirement Plans - an Amendment of FASB Statements No. 87, 88, 106, and 132(R). This statement requires a company to recognize the funded status of a benefit plan as an asset or a liability in its statement of financial position. In addition, a company is required to measure plan assets and benefit obligations as of the date of its fiscal year-end statement of financial position. The recognition provision of this statement, along with additional disclosure requirements, is effective for fiscal years ending after December 15, 2006, while the measurement date provision is effective for fiscal years ending after December 15, 2008. Management does not believe that adoption of this statement will have a material impact on the financial position of the Company.
 
F-5

In September 2006, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 157, “Fair Value Measurements” (“SFAS 157”). SFAS 157 clarifies the definition of fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value, and expands on required disclosures about fair value measurement. SFAS 157 will be effective for the Company on January 1, 2008 and will be applied prospectively. The Company is currently assessing whether adoption of SFAS 157 will have an impact on our financial statements but does not believe the adoption of SFAS 157 will have a material impact on the Company’s financial position, cash flows, or results of operations.
 
In June, 2006, the FASB issued Interpretation No. 48, Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes, an Interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109, Accounting for Income Taxes (FIN48), to create a single model to address accounting for uncertainty in tax positions. FIN 48 clarifies the accounting for income taxes by prescribing a minimum recognition threshold a tax position is required to meet before being recognized in the financial statements. FIN 48 also provides guidance on derecognition, measurement, classification, interest, and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosure and transition. The Company adopted FIN 48 as of January 1, 2007 and the adoption did not have a material impact to the Company's consolidated financial statements or effective tax rate and did not result in any unrecognized tax benefits.

Interest costs and penalties related to income taxes are classified as interest expense and general and administrative costs, respectively, in the Company's consolidated financial statements. For the nine months ended September 30, 2007 and 2006, the Company did not recognize any interest or penalty expense related to income taxes. The Company is currently subject to a three year statue of limitations by major tax jurisdictions. The Company and its subsidiaries file income tax returns in the U.S. federal jurisdiction, New York State, New York City and New Jersey.
 
NOTE 2 - EARNINGS/LOSS PER SHARE:

Basic loss per share excludes dilution and is computed by dividing net loss available to common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period.
 

Diluted earnings per share is computed by dividing income available to common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period, adjusted to reflect potentially dilutive securities. For the three months ended September 30, 2007, common stock attributable to options and warrants outstanding of 8,882,046 were not included in the computation of diluted earnings per share because their exercise prices were all greater than the average market price of the common shares. Due to losses for the nine months ended September 30, 2007 as well as the three and nine months ended September 30, 2006, potential common stock attributable to options and warrants outstanding of 8,882,046 for the nine months ended September 30, 2007 and, 8,950,112 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2006, were not included in the computation of diluted earnings per share, because to do so would be antidilutive.

NOTE 5 - LINE OF CREDIT:

On September 20, 2007, the Company entered into a Loan and Security Agreement with CIT Healthcare LLC, as lender (“ Lender ”). The term of the Loan and Security Agreement is three years. The Loan and Security Agreement provides for a revolving line of credit facility under which the Company may borrow, repay and re-borrow an amount not exceeding the lesser of $5,000,000 or the borrowing base, which is an amount that may not exceed 85.00% of the estimated net value of the Company's Eligible Accounts, as defined in the agreement. As of September 30, 2007, approximately $3,800,000 of the line was available for borrowing by the Company.
Interest is payable on the outstanding principal balance of the credit facility at an annual rate equal to 30-day LIBOR plus three and one-half percent (3.50%), adjusted monthly in accordance with changes in 30-day LIBOR.

The Company's obligations to Lender under the Loan and Security Agreement are secured by a first priority lien on all of the Company's accounts receivable, general intangibles, instruments and documents, and the proceeds thereof. However, no collateral will consist of any assets or property of BioBalance.

Beginning with the quarter ended September 30, 2007, the Company is subject to meeting periodic financial covenants contained in the Loan and Security Agreement. As of September 30, 2007, the Company was in compliance with all of the specified financial covenants.

The Company is prohibited from making dividends, distributions and other withdrawals during the term of the credit facility. However, the Company is permitted to make loans, advances or contributions to its subsidiary, BioBalance provided that certain liquidity requirements are met. The Company is further restricted from mergers and acquisitions, as well as asset sales or dispositions outside the ordinary course of business, provided that such sale restrictions are not applicable to the sale of the stock or assets of BioBalance.

NOTE 6 - STOCK OPTIONS/WARRANTS:

On January 1, 2006 the Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 123 (revised 2004), “Share-Based Payment,” (“SFAS 123(R)”). SFAS 123(R) requires the Company to recognize expense related to the fair value of employee stock option awards and to measure the cost of employee services received in exchange for an award of equity instruments based on the grant date fair value of the award. This eliminated the exception to account for such awards using the intrinsic method previously allowable under Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25, “Accounting for Stock issued to Employees” (“APB 25”). Prior to January 1, 2006, we accounted for the stock based compensation plans under the recognition and measurement provisions of APB 25, as permitted by SFAS No. 123, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation.”

Effective January 1, 2006, the Company adopted the fair value recognition provisions of SFAS 123(R), using the modified-prospective-transition method. Under that transition method, compensation cost recognized in 2006 and beyond includes: (a) compensation cost for all share-based payments granted prior to, but not yet vested as of January 1, 2006, based on the grant date fair value estimated in accordance with the original provisions of SFAS No. 123, and (b) compensation cost for all stock-based payments granted subsequent to January 1, 2006, based on the grant-date fair value estimated in accordance with the provisions of SFAS 123(R). Results for prior periods have not been restated and there is no cumulative effect upon adoption of SFAS 123(R).

Performance Incentive Plan:

On August 31, 2005, the shareholders approved the Company's 2004 Incentive Plan, (the “Incentive Plan”). Under the terms of the Incentive Plan, up to 3,175,000 shares of common stock may be granted at September 30, 2007. The Incentive Plan is administered by the Compensation Committee which is appointed by the Board of Directors. The Committee determines which key employee, officer or director on the regular payroll of the Company, or outside consultants shall receive stock options. Granted options are exercisable after the date of grant in accordance with the terms of the grant up to ten years after the date of the grant. The exercise price of any incentive stock option or nonqualified option granted under the Incentive Plan may not be less than 100% of the fair market value of the shares of common stock of the Company at the time of the grant.

On March 26, 1996, the Company's Board of Directors adopted the Performance Incentive Plan, (the “Option Plan”). The option plan has substantially the same terms as the Incentive Plan above.

NOTE 7 - COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES:

On March 6, 2006, the Company entered into a settlement agreement (the “Emerald Settlement Agreement”) with Emerald Asset Management, Inc. (“Emerald”) and Yitz Grossman related to the resolution of disputes under a consulting agreement dated June 1, 2001 between the Company and Emerald.
 
Pursuant to the Emerald Settlement Agreement and in order avoid the cost and uncertainty of litigation, the Company agreed to (i) the immediate payment of $700,000 to Emerald, (ii) payment of $22,000 per month for eighteen months beginning January 1, 2006, (iii) the issuance of 400,000 shares of common stock, (iv) options to purchase 1,100,000 shares of common stock at $0.78 per share until March 1, 2010 and (v) health insurance for Grossman and his family for the eighteen month period ending June 30, 2007 amounting to approximately $35,100. In return, Emerald and Grossman have executed a general release of all claims they may have against the Company. The Company has not paid any of this liability and has expensed $1,545,931 for the above settlement during the year ended December 31, 2005. The Company has recorded a liability of $1,131,100 and common stock and options to be issued valued at $774,220 as of December 31, 2005.

On March 9, 2006, the Company entered into a final settlement agreement (the “Corval Settlement Agreement”) with Mark Olshenitsky related to the resolution of disputes under a consulting agreement dated April 14, 2003, between the Company and Corval International, Inc. (“Corval”).

Pursuant to the Corval Settlement Agreement and in order to avoid the cost and uncertainty of litigation, the Company agreed to issue 300,000 shares of Common Stock to Olshenitsky in return for a general release of all claims Corval and Olshenitsky may have against the Company. The Company issued these shares on December 15, 2006.

On August 21, 2006, the Company unilaterally rescinded the settlement between the Company and Emerald Asset and Yitz Grossman. The rescission of the settlement by the Company was done without the consent of Emerald Asset and Yitz Grossman. Accordingly there may be future litigation brought against the Company by Emerald Asset and Yitz Grossman to seek enforcement of the agreement. The Company continues to retain the accrual for the settlement agreement on its books in its entirety. If there is litigation brought by Emerald Asset and Yitz Grossman to enforce the settlement agreement, there can be no assurance that at a future time the accrual that was recorded would be sufficient to offset amounts resulting from the future litigation.

NOTE 8 - INCOME TAXES:

The temporary differences that give rise to deferred tax assets are impairment of intangible assets for financial statement book purposes over tax purposes, the direct write-off method for receivables, using accelerated methods of amortization and depreciation for property and equipment for tax purposes, and using statutory lives for intangibles for tax purposes. Also included in the deferred tax asset is a net operating loss carryforward. At September 30, 2007 and December 31, 2006, the Company has computed a deferred tax asset in the amount of approximately $8,699,000 and $7,481,000, respectively. A full valuation allowance has been recorded against the net deferred tax assets because it is not, more likely than not, that those assets will be realized in the foreseeable future. The valuation allowance increased by $1,218,000 during the nine m onths ended September 30, 2007.

Item 2: MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION & ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATION

Forward Looking Statements
 
Certain information contained in this report is forward-looking in nature. All statements in this report, including those made by the Company and its subsidiaries (“we”, “our”, or the “Company”), other than statements of historical fact, are forward-looking statements. Examples of forward-looking statements include statements regarding the Company's future financial condition, operating results, business and regulatory strategies, projected costs, services, research and development, competitive positions and plans and objectives of management for future operations.

Forward-looking statements may contain words such as “may,” “will,” “should,” “would,” “expect,” “plan,” “anticipate,” “believe,” “estimate,” “predict,” “potential,” “continue,” or the negative of these terms or other comparable terminology. Any expectations based on these forward-looking statements are subject to risks and uncertainties and other important factors, including those discussed in Item 2 - Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations. Other risks and uncertainties are disclosed in the Company's prior SEC filings. These and many other factors could affect the Company's future financial operating results, and could cause actual results to differ materially from expectations based on forward-looking statements made in this report or elsewhere by the Company or on its behalf.

Critical Accounting Policies

The preparation of financial statements and related disclosures in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements and accompanying notes. Estimates are used for, but not limited to, the accounting for allowance for doubtful accounts and potential impairment of goodwill and other intangibles. Management bases its estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results could differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.
 
The Company believes that there have been no significant changes, during the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2007, to the items disclosed as critical accounting policies and estimates in Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2006.

Home Healthcare Segment

Revenues for the three months ended September 30, 2007 decreased to $10,773,937 from approximately $11,095,345 for the three months ended September 30, 2006.   For the nine months ended September 30, 2007, revenues decreased to $32,760,415 from $34,080,229 for the nine months ended September 30, 2006. The prior year revenue in the home health care segment includes a reversal of debt from HRA in the amount of approximately $704,000 in the nine months ended September 30, 2006, which relates to funds that HRA agreed not collect for their fiscal year 2002. The Company had previously accrued this amount as due to HRA.

Cost of professional care of patients for the three months ended September 30, 2007 decreased to $8,883,411 from $9,208,649 for the three months ended September 30, 2006. For the three months ended September 30, 2007 as compared to the three months ended September 30, 2006, the cost of professional care of patients as a percentage of revenue remained constant at approximately 82% . For the nine months ended September 30, 2007 cost of professional care of patients decreased to $27,003,984 from $27,752,702 at September 30, 2006. As a percentage of revenue of approximately 82% , the cost of professional care of patients remained constant from period to period for the nine months when taking into account the reversal of debt from HRA in the amount of $704,000 for the nine month period ended September 30, 2006.    

Selling, general and administrative expenses ("SG&A") for the three months ended September 30, 2007, decreased by $562,600 (approximately 31% ) to $1,240,083 from $1,802,683 for the three months ended September 30, 2006. For the nine months ended September 30, 2007, SG&A decreased by $708,604 (approximately 14% ) to $4,460,977 from $5,169,581 for the nine months ended September 30, 2006. This decrease is due to the reduction of personnel costs and general operating costs (particularly professional fees and liability insurance) at the home health care operations.

The net income for the home healthcare segment for the three months ended September 30, 2007, was $662,407 as compared to $126,350 for the three months ended September 30, 2006. The improvement was mostly the result of the decrease in SG&A expenses. For the nine months ended September 30, 2007 the income from the home health care segment was $1,290,035 as compared to $1,250,696 for the nine months ended September 30, 2006.

BioBalance Segment

To date BioBalance has not generated any revenues and does not have any cost of sales expense.

Selling, general and administrative expenses ("SG&A") for the three months ended September 30, 2007, decreased by $125,398 (approximately 20% ) to $512,827 from $638,225 for the three months ended September 30, 2006. For the nine months ended September 30, 2007, SG&A decreased $816,615 (approximately 43% ) to $1,067,113 from $1,883,728 for the nine months ended September 30, 2006. The decrease is primarily due to the temporary scaling back of BioBalance operations due to a lack of available funding, including the surrender of its office lease and reduction of personnel.

Product development costs for the BioBalance segment for the three months ended September 30, 2007 were $94,547 as compared to $517,294 for the three months ended September 30, 2006. For the nine months ended September 30, 2007, product development costs were $565,801 as compared to $1,861,783 for the nine months ended September 30, 2006. The decrease is due to the temporary scaling back of clinical testing and research activities in response to the lack of available funding.
 
For the three months ended September 30, 2007, the BioBalance segment showed a net loss of $(607,372) compared to a net loss of $(1,154,870) for the three months ended September 30, 2006.

These leases also generally contain provisions allowing rental obligations to be accelerated upon default in the payment of rent or the performance of other lease obligations. These leases generally contain provisions for additional rent based upon increases in real estate taxes and other cost escalations.

The Company has no off-balance sheet arrangements and has not entered into any transactions involving unconsolidated, limited purpose entities or commodity contracts.

The sources of liquidity and capital resources for the home healthcare segment are internally generated funds, cash in banks and the $5,000,000 line of credit facility with CIT Healthcare LLC, of which approximately $3,800,000 was available at September 30, 2007.
 
For the nine months ended September 30, 2007, net cash used in operating activities was $650,573 as compared to cash used by operating activities of $1,890,334 during the nine months ended September 30, 2006 a decrease of $1,239,761 . The decrease is primarily due to the temporary scaling back of BioBalance operations due to a lack of available funding, including the surrender of its office lease and reduction of personnel.

Net cash used in investing activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2007 totaled $100,581 and consisted primarily of the acquisition of intangible assets.

Net cash used in investing activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2006 totaled $326,876 and consisted of the acquisition of property and equipment of $43,371 and intangible assets of $283,505 .

BioBalance Segment

As of September 30, 2007, BioBalance has generated no revenues and has no accounts receivable. The assets of BioBalance consist mainly of intangibles related to the patents it holds on its lead product PROBACTRIX.
 
As of September 30, 2007, BioBalance had cash on hand of $30,595 all of which was available to fund operations. BioBalance estimates that its capital requirements for 2007 would be approximately $5,000,000 if it had not scaled back operations. This estimate includes the cost of an initial $3,000,000 up front payment for the Phase I/II clinical trial for the Company's lead product. The balance of approximately $2,000,000 would be required for product development and maintenance and administrative overhead. However, management has temporarily scaled back operations because of a lack of available funds and adjusted the 2007 budget to reflect that its capital requirements for the remainder of 2007 will be approximately $300,000. This budget assumes that BioBalance will continue to operate using existing funds, proceeds from the health care operations and/or the sale of additional securities. It will be necessary for the Company to secure additional funding in order for BioBalance to begin the Phase I/II clinical trial, which was approved by FDA on March 24, 2006. The Company has not been able to obtain such additional funding up to the present time, and the BioBalance subsidiary has been operating solely by utilizing funds from the health care operations, which are insufficient for BioBalance's 2007 capital needs.

The Company is in continuing discussions with potential funding sources but no agreements with any such funding sources have been entered into. Accordingly, since additional funding from outside sources has not been obtained, the Company began scaling back the operations of BioBalance at the end of November 2006, and BioBalance has been operating on a substantially reduced budget since June 2007. BioBalance management has taken steps to secure the data from clinical trials and has authorized the production of a duplicate of the biological strain of ProBactrix to maintain its viability, pending the receipt of funding for the clinical studies discussed above. Additionally, BioBalance surrendered its office space to the landlord in March 2007 in exchange for lease cancellation, incurring exit costs of approximately $36,000. Management is negotiating temporary cutbacks in consultant compensation until such time as additional funds or a strategic partner can be found. There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to raise additional capital in the near term to allow BioBalance to resume full operations and undertake the Phase I/II clinical trial.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements
 
In February, 2007, FASB issued SFAS No. 159, The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities including an amendment of FAS 115, or FAS 159. This statement provides companies with an option to report selected financial assets and liabilities at fair value. This statement is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007 with early adoption permitted. We are assessing FAS No. 159 and have not yet determined the impact that the adoption of FAS No. 159 will have on our results of operations or financial position, if any.
  
In September 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 158 Employers' Accounting for Defined Benefit Pension and Other Postretirement Plans - an Amendment of FASB Statements No. 87, 88, 106, and 132(R). This statement requires a company to recognize the funded status of a benefit plan as an asset or a liability in its statement of financial position. In addition, a company is required to measure plan assets and benefit obligations as of the date of its fiscal year-end statement of financial position. The recognition provision of this statement, along with additional disclosure requirements, is effective for fiscal years ending after December 15, 2006, while the measurement date provision is effective for fiscal years ending after December 15, 2008. Management does not believe that adoption of this statement will have a material impact on the financial position of the Company.

In September 2006, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 157, “Fair Value Measurements” (“SFAS 157”). SFAS 157 clarifies the definition of fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value, and expands on required disclosures about fair value measurement. SFAS 157 will be effective for the Company on January 1, 2008 and will be applied prospectively. The Company is currently assessing whether adoption of SFAS 157 will have an impact on our financial statements but does not believe the adoption of SFAS 157 will have a material impact on the Company’s financial position, cash flows, or results of operations.

In June, 2006, the FASB issued Interpretation No. 48, Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes, an Interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109, Accounting for Income Taxes (FIN48), to create a single model to address accounting for uncertainty in tax positions. FIN 48 clarifies the accounting for income taxes by prescribing a minimum recognition threshold a tax position is required to meet before being recognized in the financial statements. FIN 48 also provides guidance on derecognition, measurement, classification, interest, and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosure and transition. The Company adopted FIN 48 as of January 1, 2007 and the adoption did not have a material impact to the Company's consolidated financial statements or effective tax rate and did not result in any unrecognized tax benefits.
 

Generally, the fair market value of fixed rate debt will increase as interest rates fall and decrease as interest rates rise. The Company had no interest rate exposure on fixed rate debt or other market risk at September 30, 2007.

Based on that evaluation, other than the changes reported in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2006, which remained in effect during the quarter ended September 30, 2007, there were no other changes during such quarter.
