PART I |
|
ITEM 1. BUSINESS. |
|
Business Development |
|
We were incorporated in the State of Utah on June 29, 1983, under the name Teal Eye, Inc. We merged with |
Terzon Corporation and changed our name to Terzon Corporation in 1984. We subsequently changed our name to |
Candy Stripers Candy Corporation. We were engaged in the business of manufacturing and selling candy and gift items |
to hospital gift shops across the country. We were traded Over-the-Counter Bulletin Board for several years. In 1986 |
we ceased the candy manufacturing operations and filed for Chapter 11 Bankruptcy protection. After emerging from |
Bankruptcy in 1993, we remained dormant until January 1998, when we changed our name to Piedmont, Inc. On May |
13, 2003, we filed an amendment to our Articles of Incorporation to change our name from Piedmont, Inc. to US |
Biodefense, Inc. |
|
We are focused on encouraging the development, manufacture and commercialization of biologic products for |
the prevention and treatment of human infectious disease. Our current business strategy focuses on the potential |
commercialization of biologic products to counter potential bioterrorism threats. |
|
On February 15, 2005, we entered into a consulting agreement with an independent consultant to assist with |
the development of its NIH SBIR Grant proposal related to the creation of a Stem Cell Research Center of Excellence. |
The consultant will serve as a Scientific Advisor to the Company and will assist with grant writing editing and review of |
a letter of intent and final proposal for the Stem Cell Center of Excellence. The agreement has a term of one year, |
which may be extended upon agreement by both parties. As compensation for entering into the agreement, the |
consultant will be paid at the rate of $100 per hour. |
|
On February 23, 2005, we entered into an Option Agreement with UCL Biomedica Plc to license patent rights |
applications related to the development of artificial liver and therapeutic re-population in patients with liver disease in |
exchange for ₤13,245.53. This option agreement gave us a non-exclusive license for European Patent Application No. |
02743434.9 and U.S. patent application 10/483,190 entitled Liver cell progenitor and use for the treatment of liver |
disease and related foreign applications with UCL BioMedica Plc., a wholly owned subsidiary of University College |
London. Our goal was to evaluate the hepatic stem cell sorting and enrichment technology, which can be applied to |
gene therapy and liver re-population technology and will release more detailed information about the Hepatic Stem Cell |
technology and potential applications, including gene therapy and re-population in patients with liver disease. |
|
-3- |
On February 28, 2005, we launched T2X.us, a High Tech Transfer Search Engine, which is developing a |
search engine identifying intellectual property modeling the functionality of general portal search engines like Google |
(NasdaqNM:GOOG - News), Yahoo (NasdaqNM:YHOO - News), and LookSmart (NasdaqNM:LOOK - News). U.S. |
BioDefense staff currently uses the search engine to accelerate the identification of stem cell and biodefense intellectual |
property acquisition programs. Programmers are now updating the T2X search engine for more robustness in |
preparation for a commercial version launch. T2X is a search engine facilitating innovation exchange connecting VC's, |
small business, and public companies seeking technologies with universities, government agencies and scientists. T2X |
is an online Technology Transfer Exchange where commercial members can identify technology that is available for |
licensing or partnering from universities, research labs and scientists. |
|
On May 10, 2005, we entered into an agreement with the University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center for |
the priority option to review and license the patent pending technology entitled Use of Non-marrow Stem Cell for |
Cardiac Regeneration. We paid a fee of $30,000 for the non-exclusive right to review this patent. In the last 60 years, |
M. D. Anderson has built a reputation for excellence in cancer patient care, research, education and prevention. |
|
<R>On May 11, 2005 we entered into a 24-month patent listing and technology transfer alliance agreement |
with Diamond I Inc. (OTC BB:DMOI.OB - News), a developer of wireless handheld gaming products. As |
consideration, we received 5,000,000 shares of the common stock of Diamond I. Under the agreement, U.S. |
BioDefense will market the intellectual property on its technology transfer exchange web site www.T2X.us. We will |
focus on assisting Diamond I in generating new revenue channels from potential licensees in order to rapidly bring to |
market its patent pending biometric security technology. Sellers such as scientists, government agencies, corporations |
and Universities with technology they wish to out-license provide either an online listing or non-confidential |
descriptions of their technologies. Each day, buyers can search information online or be matched with confidential |
opportunities with interests and send complete information to all parties. The site is aggregated so users can freely |
access VA, SBA, EPA, FEMA, NTTC, and NASA's collection of technologies.</R> |
|
On July 6, 2005 we entered into a six month option to license world patent application WO 03/054202 A1 and |
U.S. patient application 5,958,767 entitled Generation of Human Neural Crest Stem Cell Line and Its Utilization in |
Human Transplantation and related applications with the University of British Columbia. This technology was |
developed by Dr. Seung Kim in the Department of Neurology at UBC. In exchange we paid an option fee of $5,000 to |
UBC and will evaluate the neural crest stem cell line and its utilization in human transplantation, which can be used to |
treat brain and spinal cord repair, and will release more detailed information about the neural crest stem cell technology |
and potential applications, including gene therapy. |
|
On October 15, 2005, we entered into an agreement with Financialnewsusa.com, a related party, to provide |
consulting services to them in exchange for $40,000. The agreement has a term of six months and may be extended |
upon agreement by both parties. Either party may cancel the agreement with five days written notice in the event of a |
material violation of the agreement. Either party may cancel the agreement for any reason upon 30 days written notice. |
We have been paid $20,000 upon execution of the agreement, with the balance of the contract due in January of 2006. |
We cannot guarantee that we will be able to attract future customers and continue to generate sales. |
|
Business of Issuer |
|
Principal Products and Principal Markets |
|
We plan to evaluate the economic potential of new biological technologies as we discover them. We are not in |
the business of researching and developing such technologies ourselves. US Biodefense plans to license intellectual |
property from researchers or organizations to evaluate its commercial feasibility. We plan to develop relationships with |
universities and private entities to utilize research facilities and manpower to appraise the marketability of the |
technologies. In the event a technology is found to have viable commercial applications, we will seek third-parties to |
manufacture items for sale to government and corporate customers. We will rely on marketing, distribution and co- |
promotion agreements for the dissemination of the items produced. |
|
-4- |
Our current focus is on evaluating potential commercial applications for cellular and viral inactivation in |
accordance with the commercial evaluation license agreement we entered into with the United States Public Health |
Service. The license pertains to a method of rendering viruses, parasites and tumor cells inactive. Once inactivated, |
these agents can be used as vaccines against diseases caused by their harmful counterparts without the threat of |
infection. |
|
Vaccination against pathogens has been one of the major accomplishments of medicine in terms of increasing |
quality and length of life. While effective vaccines have been developed for a large number of diseases, development of |
safe and effective vaccines for other diseases remain problematic. The use of inactivated microbial agents, which are |
essentially microbes that are no longer living organisms, as a vaccine, although generally safe, will not always be |
effective if the characteristics that would provide immunity from the agents are altered. In most cases, the preferential |
degradation of certain properties of the inactivated microorganism might produce a weak or poorly targeted immune |
response that permits a less than ideal response when the host is later challenged with the live microorganism. On the |
other hand, while the exposure to live attenuated microbial agents as vaccines will often provide improved immunity, |
use of such live agents increases the risk that the vaccine itself will be infectious. Thus, there is generally a trade-off |
between improved effectiveness and a greater degree of safety when selecting between the viral inactivation and viral |
attenuation techniques in the preparation of vaccines. |
|
Distribution Methods of Our Products |
|
Our marketing activities will be focused on key vertical markets and will be primarily conducted by our |
management and any independent contractors we have employ. Our marketing approach will begin with the |
development of information concerning the requirements of our potential customers for the types of technical services |
that we provide. This information is gathered in the course of contract performance, reviewing requests for competitive |
bids, formal briefings, participation in professional organizations and published literature. This information is then |
evaluated in order to devise and implement the best means of taking advantage of available business opportunities, |
including the preparation of proposals responsive to the stated and perceived needs of customers. Our products may be |
marketed with the assistance of independent sales representatives. We have not yet implemented any marketing |
activities and have not determined when we may begin to do so. |
|
Competitive Business Conditions and the Issuers Competitive Position |
|
Our business is highly competitive. We have a large number of competitors, all of which have been |
established longer and have substantially greater financial resources and larger technical staffs. We also compete with |
specialized entities that are able to concentrate their resources on particular areas. We may also compete with the U.S. |
Government's own in-house capabilities and federal non-profit contract research centers. |
|
We compete on the basis of technical expertise, management and marketing abilities and price. Our continued |
success is dependent upon our ability to hire and retain highly qualified scientists, engineers, technicians, management |
and professional personnel who will provide superior service and performance on a cost-effective basis. |
|
Patents, trademarks, licenses, franchises, concessions, royalty agreements or labor contracts, including duration |
|
On February 23, 2005, we entered into a 90 day Option Agreement with UCL Biomedica Plc to license patent |
rights applications related to the development of artificial liver and therapeutic re-population in patients with liver |
disease in exchange for ₤13,245.53. This option agreement gave us a non-exclusive license for European Patent |
Application No. 02743434.9 and U.S. patent application 10/483,190 entitled Liver cell progenitor and use for the |
treatment of liver disease and related foreign applications with UCL BioMedica Plc., a wholly owned subsidiary of |
University College London. |
|
On May 10, 2005, we entered into an agreement with the University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center for |
the priority option to review and license the patent pending technology entitled Use of Non-marrow Stem Cell for |
Cardiac Regeneration. We paid a fee of $30,000 for the non-exclusive right to review this patent. In the last 60 years, |
M. D. Anderson has built a reputation for excellence in cancer patient care, research, education and prevention. |

On July 6, 2005 we entered into a six month option to license world patent application WO 03/054202 A1 and |
U.S. patient application 5,958,767 entitled Generation of Human Neural Crest Stem Cell Line and Its Utilization in |
Human Transplantation and related applications with the University of British Columbia. This technology was |
developed by Dr. Seung Kim in the Department of Neurology at UBC. In exchange we paid an option fee of $5,000 to |
UBC and will evaluate the neural crest stem cell line and its utilization in human transplantation, which can be used to |
treat brain and spinal cord repair, and will release more detailed information about the neural crest stem cell technology |
and potential applications, including gene therapy. |
|
Need for Government Approval |
|
As part of our strategy, we will be dependent upon contracts from U.S. government agencies. All U.S. |
government contracts and subcontracts may be modified, curtailed or terminated at the convenience of the government |
if program requirements or budgetary constraints change. If a contract is terminated for convenience, we will be |
generally reimbursed for our allowable costs, as determined by the government through the date of termination and will |
be paid a proportionate amount of the stipulated profit or fee attributable to the work actually performed. Contract and |
program modifications, curtailments or terminations may have a material adverse effect on our operations. |
|
In addition, the U.S. government may terminate a contract for default. A termination could have a significant |
adverse impact on our business and reputation. If a contract is terminated for default, we may be unable to recover |
amounts billed or billable under the contract and may be liable for other costs and damages. |
|
Effect of existing or probable government regulations |
|
The terrorist attacks of September through November 2001 in the United States changed political and |
budgetary attitudes towards bioterrorism threats. We believe that the U.S. government has recognized that it must |
provide incentives for private industry to develop and manufacture biodefense products. On October 1, 2003, Congress |
passed the Department of Homeland Security Appropriations Act, 2004 which includes $5.6 billion over a 10-year |
period for the purchase of medical countermeasures against bioterrorist attacks. The HSAA allows up to $885 million |
of this to be spent in fiscal year 2004 and a maximum of $3.4 billion through fiscal year 2008. These purchases are |
expected to commence in the governments 2004 fiscal year, which began on October 1, 2003. |
|
In January 2003, President Bush announced Project BioShield with the intention of accelerating the availability |
of effective countermeasures against bioterrorism. If passed, Project BioShield would increase the NIHs authorities |
and flexibility to facilitate the development of new products for biodefense, establish a U.S. Food and Drug |
Administration (FDA) emergency use authorization and provide an efficient mechanism for biodefense vaccine |
purchase. In July 2003, the U.S. House of Representatives passed the Project BioShield legislation by a vote of 421-to- |
2. The legislation is pending approval in the U.S. Senate. |
|
The technology we are evaluating, if deemed commercially viable, will be subject to federal regulation in the |
United States, principally by the FDA under the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act, and by state and local |
governments, as well as regulatory and other authorities in foreign governments. Such regulations govern or influence, |
among other things, the testing, manufacture, safety and efficacy requirements, labeling, storage, record keeping, |
licensing, advertising, promotion, distribution and export of products, manufacturing and the manufacturing process. In |
many foreign countries, such regulations also govern coverage and the prices charged for products under their |
respective national social security systems. The potential resultant products we seek to bring to market will be |
considered biological drug products. Biologics are subject to rigorous regulation by the FDA in the United States and |
similar regulatory bodies in other countries. This process is lengthy and we will not be able generate revenues in the |
event any potential biologic application is denied. |
|
Amount spent during each of the last two fiscal years on research and development |
|
We do not conduct research and development activities in-house. We contract with third-party laboratories |
and research facilities to conduct a significantly all of our research and development activities. As a result, we have |
incurred a total of $98,796 in research and development related expenses over the past two fiscal years. |
|
-6- |
Employees |
|
We do not have any employees. Instead, we presently rely on the efforts of our President, David Chin, who |
devotes an average of 10 hours per week to our operations. We believe that our operations are currently on a small |
scale that is manageable by a one individual. While we believe that the addition of employees is not required over the |
next 12 months, we may contract independent contracts to assist in the implementation and/or marketing of our |
business. These representatives are not intended to be employees of our company. |
|
Reports to Security Holders |
|
Annual Reports |
|
We intend to furnish our shareholders with audited annual financial reports certified by our independent |
registered public accountants, and may, in our discretion, furnish unaudited quarterly financial reports. |
|
Periodic Reports with the SEC |
|
We are a reporting issuer with the Securities and Exchange Commission. We file annual reports on Form 10- |
KSB, quarterly reports on Form 10-QSB, current reports on Form 8-K and amendments to these reports filed or |
furnished pursuant to Section 13(a) or 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended as required to maintain |
the fully reporting status. |
|
Availability of Filings |
|
You may read and copy any materials we file with the SEC at the SEC's Public Reference Room at 100 F |
Street, N.E., Washington, D.C. 20002. You may obtain information on the operation of the Public Reference Room by |
calling the SEC at 1-800-SEC-0330. Our SEC filings will be available on the SEC Internet site, located at |
http://www.sec.gov. |
|
Risk Factors |
|
We may not be able to attain profitability without additional funding, which may be unavailable. |
|
We have limited capital resources. To date, we have funded our operations from the sale of equity securities |
and have generated limited cash from operations. Unless we begin to generate sufficient recurring revenues to finance |
operations as a going concern, we may experience liquidity and solvency problems. Such liquidity and solvency |
problems may force us to go out of business if additional financing is not available. No alternative sources of funds are |
available to us in the event we are unable to locate adequate capital. |
|
Our independent registered public accountants have qualified their report to express substantial doubt about our |
companys ability to continue as a going concern. |
|
As of the date of this annual report, we have an accumulated deficit in the amount of $3,785,355. Taking this |
fact into account, our independent registered public accountants have expressed substantial doubt about our ability to |
continue as a going concern in their report to the financial statements included in this annual report. If our business |
fails, you may face a complete loss of your investment. |
|
-7- |
We do not have any facilities appropriate for clinical testing, we lack significant manufacturing experience and we |
have very limited sales and marketing personnel. We are currently dependent upon our acquiring licenses or others |
for several of these functions and will likely remain dependent upon others for these functions. |
|
|
|
We do not have a manufacturing facility that can be used for production of our products. In addition, at this |
time, we have very limited sales and marketing personnel. We are currently dependent upon our licensees or others for |
several of these functions and in the course of our development program, we will likely be required to enter into |
additional arrangements with other companies or universities or clinical investigators for our animal testing, human |
clinical testing, manufacturing, and sales and marketing activities. If our licensees breach their obligations under our |
license agreements to perform these functions or we are otherwise unable to retain third parties for these purposes on |
acceptable terms, we may be unable to successfully develop, manufacture and market our proposed products. In |
addition, any failures by third parties to adequately perform their responsibilities may delay the submission of our |
proposed products for regulatory approval, impair our ability to deliver our products on a timely basis or otherwise |
impair our competitive position. Our dependence on third parties for the development, manufacture, sale and marketing |
of our products also may adversely affect our profit margins. |
|
We intend to continue to license our vaccine candidates from third parties and there is no guarantee that any |
candidate will be economically viable. |
|
|
|
We currently license for commercial evaluation a viral and cellular inactivation technology and intend to |
continue to license further biotechnology from third-parties. We do not conduct our own research and development |
activities. The technology we license and any future technology we may license are unproven and may be unsuitable |
for commercial use. In the event we are unable to commercialize any licensed technology, we will be unable to |
generate revenues. Furthermore, there is no guarantee that, if the licensed technology is deemed commercially viable, |
we will be able to obtain sales and marketing agreements, in which case we will be unable to generate revenues. |
|
Product development efforts may not yield marketable products due to results of studies or trials, failure to achieve |
regulatory approvals or market acceptance, proprietary rights of others or manufacturing issues. |
|
|
|
Our success depends on our ability to identify commercial applications, successfully develop and obtain |
regulatory approval to market new biopharmaceutical products. We expect that a significant portion of the technology |
that we will evaluate will involve new and unproven technologies. Our potential products may appear to be promising |
at various stages of development yet fail to reach the market for a number of reasons, including the: |
|
1. |
|
lack of adequate quality or sufficient prevention benefit, or unacceptable safety during pre-clinical studies or |
|
|
clinical trials; |
|
2. |
|
failure to receive necessary regulatory approvals; |
|
3. |
|
existence of proprietary rights of third parties; or |
|
4. |
|
inability to develop manufacturing methods that are efficient, cost-effective and capable of meeting stringent |
|
|
regulatory standards. |
|
We will be significantly dependent upon contracts with the U.S. government. If we are unable to obtain contracts to |
supply the U.S. government, we may not be able to continue our business. |
|
|
|
The process of obtaining U.S. government contracts is lengthy and uncertain and we must compete for each |
contract. Moreover, the award of one government contract does not necessarily secure the award of future contracts |
covering the same vaccine. We cannot be certain that we will be awarded any future contracts with the U.S. |
government. We currently have no products to sell. However, upon commencement of our operations, of which we |
cannot assure you, if we are unable to obtain contract awards to supply our products to the U.S. government, our |
business will be harmed and it is unlikely that we will be able to ultimately commercialize any particular vaccine. |
|
-8- |
If we are unable to commercialize vaccine candidates, we will be unable to generate revenues. |
|
The determination of when and whether a product is ready for large scale purchase and potential use will be |
made by the government through consultation with a number of governmental agencies, including the Food and Drug |
Administration, the National Institute of Health, the Centers for Disease Control and the Department of Homeland |
Security. President Bush has proposed, and Congress is considering, measures to accelerate the development of |
biodefense products through NIH funding, the review process by the FDA and the final government procurement |
contracting authority. While this may help speed the approval of any prospective future vaccine candidates, it may also |
encourage competitors to develop their own vaccine candidates. If competitive vaccine candidates gain approval, we |
could face severe competition, which could harm our business. |
|
Vaccine development is a long, expensive and uncertain process, and delay or failure can occur at any stage of |
clinical trials. |
|
To develop vaccine candidates, we or our agents must provide the FDA and foreign regulatory authorities with |
clinical data that demonstrate adequate safety and immune response. Statistically significant effectiveness of our |
biodefense product candidates cannot initially be demonstrated in humans, but instead must be demonstrated, in part, by |
utilizing animal models before they can be approved for commercial sale. Vaccine development to show adequate |
evidence of effectiveness in animal models and safety and immune response in humans is a long, expensive and |
uncertain process, and delay or failure can occur at any stage of our animal studies or clinical trials. Any delay or |
significant adverse clinical events arising during any of our clinical trials could force us to abandon a vaccine candidate |
altogether or to conduct additional clinical trials in order to obtain approval from the FDA or foreign regulatory bodies. |
These development efforts and clinical trials are lengthy and expensive, and the outcome is uncertain. If we are unable |
to successfully develop our vaccine candidates, our revenues will suffer and our stock price is likely to decline. |
|
The independent clinical investigators that we intend to rely upon to conduct clinical trials may not be diligent, |
careful or timely and may make mistakes in the conduct of our clinical trials. |
|
We intend to rely on independent clinical investigators to conduct our clinical trials. The investigators are not |
our employees, and we cannot control the amount or timing of resources that they devote to our vaccine development |
programs. If independent investigators fail to devote sufficient time and resources to our vaccine development |
programs, or if their performance is substandard, it may delay FDA approval of our vaccine candidates. These |
independent investigators may also have relationships with other commercial entities, some of which may compete with |
us. If these independent investigators assist our competitors at our expense, it could harm our competitive position. |
|
Political or social factors may delay or impair our ability to market vaccine products. |
|
Products developed to treat diseases caused by or to combat the threat of bioterrorism will be subject to |
changing political and social environments. The political and social responses to bioterrorism have been highly charged |
and unpredictable. Political or social pressures may delay or cause resistance to bringing our products to market or limit |
pricing of our products, which would harm our business. |
|
-9- |
We may fail to protect our intellectual property or may infringe on the intellectual property rights of others, either of |
which could harm our business. |
|
If we are unable to protect our intellectual property, we may be unable to prevent other companies from using |
our technology in competitive products. If we infringe on the intellectual property rights of others, we may be |
prevented from developing or marketing our product candidates. We rely on patent and other intellectual property |
protection to prevent our competitors from manufacturing and marketing our product candidates. Our technology, |
including technology licensed from the National Institute of Health, or that we may license in the future, if any, will be |
protected from unauthorized use by others only to the extent that it is covered by valid and enforceable patents or |
effectively maintained as trade secrets. The patent positions of pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies can be |
highly uncertain and involve complex legal and factual questions. No consistent policy regarding the breadth of claims |
allowed in biotechnology patents has emerged to date. Accordingly, we cannot predict the scope and breadth of patent |
claims that may be afforded to other companies patents. In addition, we could incur substantial costs in litigation if we |
are required to defend against patent suits brought by third parties, or if we initiate these suits. |
|
Because of competitive pressures from competitors with more resources we may fail to implement our business model |
profitably. |
|
We are entering a highly competitive market segment. Our expected competitors include several larger and |
more established companies in the biodefense and pharmaceutical industries. Generally, our actual and potential |
competitors have substantially greater capital resources, larger research and development staffs and facilities, greater |
experience in drug development and in obtaining regulatory approvals, and greater marketing capabilities than we do. |
Our competitors include fully integrated pharmaceutical companies and biotechnology companies that currently have |
drug and target discovery efforts, as well as universities and public and private research institutions. Our commercial |
opportunities will be reduced or eliminated if our competitors develop and market products that we target. Researchers |
are continually learning more about diseases, which may lead to new technologies for treatment. Our competitors may |
succeed in developing and marketing products either that are more effective than those that we may develop, alone or |
with our collaborators, or that are marketed before any products we develop are marketed. |
|
We currently do not have an internal marketing and sales force and may rely on third parties for the sales or |
marketing of some or all of our vaccines if they are successfully developed. Our dependence on third parties may |
delay or impair our ability to generate revenues, or adversely affect our profitability. |
|
We lack any sales or marketing history, and as of present do not have plans on developing internally such |
capability. We intend to rely on third parties for the sales and marketing of our products to entities other than the U.S. |
and foreign governments. Our lack of sales and marketing personnel and distribution relationships may impair our |
ability to generate revenues. |
|
Failure to hire and retain key management employees could adversely affect our ability to obtain financing, develop |
our products, conduct clinical trials or execute our business strategy. |
|
We are highly dependent on our senior management. These individuals have played a critical role in raising |
capital and negotiating business development opportunities. If we lose the services of any key members of senior |
management and we are unable to recruit qualified replacements where we deem it necessary, we may be unable to |
achieve our business objectives. |
|
Our management is involved with other business activities, which could reduce the time they allocate to our |
operations. |
|
Our operations depend substantially on the skills and experience of Mr. David Chin, our President. Mr. Chin is |
involved in other business activities and may, in the future, become involved in other business opportunities. If a |
specific business opportunity becomes available, one or more of these individuals may face a conflict in selecting |
between US Biodefense and his other business interests. We have not formulated a policy for the resolution of such |
conflicts. |
|

Our stock is a speculative investment that may result in losses to investors. |
|
The trading price of our common stock is subject to wide fluctuations in response to various events or factors, |
many of which are beyond our control. In addition, the stock market may experience extreme price and volume |
fluctuations, which, without a direct relationship to the operating performance, may affect the market price of our stock. |

US Biodefense, Inc. has its headquarters in California. The mailing address is US Biodefense, Inc., 13674 E. |
Valley Blvd., City of Industry, CA 91746, phone: (626) 961-8039. This office is provided by our officer and director at |
a charge of $3,000, which includes rent and various shared expenses, which include a receptionist, various office |
equipment and furniture and utilities expense. There are currently no proposed programs for the renovation, |

ITEM 6. MANAGEMENTS DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF RESULTS OF OPERATIONS AND |
FINANCIAL CONDITION |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Overview |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
We were incorporated in the State of Utah on June 29, 1983, under the name Teal Eye, Inc. We merged with |
Terzon Corporation and changed our name to Terzon Corporation in 1984. We subsequently changed our name to |
Candy Stripers Candy Corporation. We were engaged in the business of manufacturing and selling candy and gift items |
to hospital gift shops across the country. We were traded Over-the-Counter Bulletin Board for several years. In 1986 |
we ceased the candy manufacturing operations and filed for Chapter 11 Bankruptcy protection. After emerging from |
Bankruptcy in 1993, we remained dormant until January 1998, when we changed our name to Piedmont, Inc. On May |
13, 2003, we filed an amendment to our Articles of Incorporation to change our name from Piedmont, Inc. to US |
Biodefense, Inc. We are a registered government contractor with the Department of Defense Logistics Agency that is |
focused on designing ad developing homeland security and biodefense products. |
|
|
|
www.T2X.us |
|
|
|
On February 28, 2005, we launched T2X.us, a High Tech Transfer Search Engine, which is developing a |
search engine identifying intellectual property. U.S. BioDefense staff currently uses the search engine to accelerate the |
identification of stem cell and biodefense intellectual property acquisition programs. T2X is a search engine facilitating |
innovation exchange connecting VC's, small business, and public companies seeking technologies with universities, |
government agencies and scientists. Programmers are now updating the T2X search engine for more robustness in |
preparation for a commercial version launch. We do not expect to generate any revenues from this business segment for |
at least the 12 months of operations. |
|
-13- |
Diamond I, Inc. |
|
On June 20, 2005 we entered into a patent listing and technology transfer alliance agreement with Diamond I |
Inc. (OTC BB:DMOI.OB - News), a developer of wireless handheld gaming products. Under the agreement, U.S. |
BioDefense will market the intellectual property on its technology transfer exchange web site www.T2X.us. We will |
focus on assisting Diamond I in generating new revenue channels from potential licensees in order to rapidly bring to |
market its patent pending biometric security technology. Sellers such as scientists, government agencies, corporations |
and Universities with technology they wish to out-license provide either an online listing or non-confidential |
descriptions of their technologies. Each day, buyers can search information online or be matched with confidential |
opportunities with interests and send complete information to all parties. The site is aggregated so users can freely |
access VA, SBA, EPA, FEMA, NTTC, and NASA's collection of technologies. |
|
Financialnewsusa.com, Inc. |
|
On October 15, 2005, we entered into an agreement with Financialnewsusa.com, a related party, to provide |
consulting services to them in exchange for $40,000. The agreement has a term of six months and may be extended |
upon agreement by both parties. Either party may cancel the agreement with five days written notice in the event of a |
material violation of the agreement. Either party may cancel the agreement for any reason upon 30 days written notice. |
We have been paid $20,000 upon execution of the agreement, with the balance of the contract due in January of 2006. |
We cannot guarantee that we will be able to attract future customers and continue to generate sales. |
|
Results of Operations |
|
<R>Revenues |
|
Our revenues totaled $159,166 for the current fiscal year ended November 30, 2005, compared to $29,167 for |
the fiscal year ended November 30, 2004. The increase in revenues represent a year-over-year increase of 446%, which |
was due in part to our contracts with Financialnewsusa.com and Diamond I, Inc. Of the $159,166 in revenues generated |
during the year ended November 30, 2005, a total of $134,166 has been recognized from our agreement with |
Financialnewsusa.com, to which we provided biodefense-related industry news and information to |
Financialnewsusa.com. The balance of our revenues earned in the year ended November 30, 2005, or $25,000, is |
attributable to our arrangement to identify technology commercialization opportunities for Diamond I to research |
universities, government laboratories and third member private parties. |
|
Revenues for the year ended November 30, 2004, in the amount of $29,167, were attributable solely to the |
May 1, 2004 agreement with Financialnewsusa.com, a related party, to provide consulting services to them in exchange |
for $50,000, for which we were paid in advance the entire balance of the contract. |
|
Other than our agreement with Financialnewsusa.com and Diamond I, we do not have any long-term |
agreements to provide our services to any single customer or group of customers. As a result, we are unable to predict |
the stability of, and ability to continue to generate, ongoing revenues.</R> |
|
Expenses |
|
Total expenses for the year ended November 30, 2005 were $195,572. In the comparable year ago period |
ended November 30, 2004, we incurred total expenses of $58,131. Aggregate expenses increased approximately 236%, |
or $137,441, due primarily to an increase of 2,623%, or $91,796, in research and development costs from $3,500 during |
the year ended November 30, 2004, to $95,296 in the year ended November 30, 2005. The significant increase in |
attributable to the various intellectual property option and licensing agreements entered into during the year ended |
November 30, 2005. We believe obtaining and maintaining such licenses for intellectual property is a significant aspect |
of our business plan and will continue for the next at least 12 months. |
|
-14- |
An expenditure we did not have in the prior year ended November 30, 2004 that we began recognizing in the |
most recent year ended November 30, 2005 is occupational costs and expenses in the amount of $36,000. These |
expenses encompass $13,000 in rent expense and $23,000 of miscellaneous shared overhead such as a receptionist, |
various office equipment and furniture and utilities expense. We expect occupational costs to continue to be incurred |
over the next at least 12 months. |
|
|
|
General and administrative expenses increased 199% year over year from $3,535 in 2004 to $10,575 in 2005. |
Or management believes the rise in these expenditures are correlated with our increased business activities and pursuit |
of our business objectives. General and administrative expenses mainly consist of office expenditures such as postage |
and delivery fees, supplies and other similar miscellaneous items. We expect to continue to incur general and |
administrative expenses for the foreseeable future, although we cannot estimate the extent of these costs. |
|
Due to our increased operational activities, we contracted services from outside parties, including attorneys, |
accountants and consultants. As a result, total expenses paid in relation to consulting and outside services and |
professional fees grew 56%, or $26,096, from the year ended November 30, 2004 to $33,313 during the year ended |
November 30, 2005. Our management believes that the growth of our company is dependent upon the services |
provided by individuals who are not our employees. Additionally, outsourcing is important in lowering fixed costs, so |
we expect to continue to do so for the foreseeable future. |
|
|
|
In spite of the trend of higher overall expenses, our payroll decreased from $25,000 in the year ended |
November 30, 2004 to $20,389 for the year ended November 30, 2005. The sole reason for the decrease in payroll |
expenses is the full expense of the remaining balance of common stock issued to David Chin, our President, in |
accordance with his employment agreement. We currently do not have any employment agreements outstanding with |
any individual, thus we may not incur payroll expenses in the near future. However, we cannot predict with certainty |
whether or not we will hire personnel in the next 12 months. |
|
We expect to continue to incur expenditures in the foreseeable future related to ongoing research and |
development and the expansion of our business operations. As we continue to pursue research and development efforts, |
we expect expenses to stabilize over the next several years. Unfortunately, we cannot accurately estimate the extent or |
impact of ongoing expenses. |
|
|
|
Losses |
|
|
|
Our loss before accounting for income taxes totaled $36,406 for the year ended November 30, 2005, compared |
to a loss before income taxes of $28,964 in the prior period. After factoring income taxes of $9,596 in the year ended |
November 30, 2005, our net loss from operations totaled $46,002. In the prior year ended November 30, 2004, we did |
not recognize any income taxes, thus our net loss was $28,964. This represents a widening deficit of 59%, or $17,038, |
in a year-to-year comparison. Although we anticipate incurring ongoing operating losses, we expect these losses to |
narrow in year-to-year comparison as we generate increased revenues and as expenses begin to plateau over the next |
several years. However, we cannot guarantee the accuracy of our expectations. |
|
Liquidity And Capital Resources |
|
|
|
We have limited cash on hand, and may be unable to continue operations for the next at least 12 months if we |
are unable to generate revenues or obtain capital infusions by issuing equity or debt securities in exchange for cash. If |
we are unable to obtain capital through issuances of equity or debt, David Chin, a shareholder and President of our |
company, has verbally agreed to loan us cash, which shall bear no interest and be due upon demand. As of November |
30, 2005, David Chin loaned us a total of $4,313 to pay for general and administrative expenses. The loan bears no |
interest and is due upon demand. As of November 30, 2005, the amount owed is $1,812. We have no formal written |
agreement with Mr. Chin for any further loans, and we cannot guarantee you that we will be able to enforce our verbal |
agreement. Notwithstanding this, there can be no assurance that we will be able to secure additional funds in the future |
to stay in business. Our principal accountants have expressed substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going |
concern because we have limited operations. |
|
|
|
There are no known trends, events or uncertainties that have had or that are reasonably expected to have a |
material impact on our revenues from continuing operations. |
-15- |
Our management does not anticipate the need to hire additional full- or part- time employees over the next 12 |
months, as the services provided by our officers and directors appear sufficient at this time. We believe that our |
operations are currently on a small scale that is manageable by a few individuals. While we believe that the addition of |
employees is not required over the next 12 months, we intend to hire independent contractors to perform research |
activities and market any potential products and services we may develop. |
|
|
|
We do not have any off-balance sheet arrangements. |
|
|
|
We currently do not own any significant plant or equipment that we would seek to sell in the near future. |
|
We have not paid for expenses on behalf of any of our directors. Additionally, we believe that this fact shall |
not materially change. |

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM |
|
|
TO THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS AND STOCKHOLDERS OF |
US BIODEFENSE, INC. |
|
I have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of US Biodefense, Inc. as of November 30, 2005 and 2004 |
and the related consolidated statements of operations, comprehensive income, stockholders' equity (deficit) and cash |
flows for the years then ended. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Companys management. My |
responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on my audit. |
|
I conducted my audits in accordance with standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United |
States). Those standards require that I plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the |
financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence |
supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting |
principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement |
presentation. I believe that my audits provide a reasonable basis for my opinion. |
|
In my opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated |
financial position of US Biodefense, Inc. as of November 30, 2005 and 2004 and the consolidated results of its |
operations and its cash flows for the years then ended in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. |
|
The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a |
going concern. As discussed in Note 1 to the accompanying financial statements, the Company has no established |
source of revenue, which raises substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. Management's plan in |
regard to these matters is also discussed in Note 1. These financial statements do not include any adjustments that might |
result from the outcome of this uncertainty. |

Note 1 Background and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies |
|
Background |
|
US Biodefense , Inc. (the "Company"), a Utah corporation is headquartered in the City of |
Industry, California. The Company is a registered government contractor with the Department |
of Defense Logistics Agency. The Company is focused on designing and developing |
homeland security and biodefense products. |
|
The Company was originally incorporated under the name Teal Eye, Inc. in the state of |
Utah on June 29, 1983. The Company then merged with Terzon Corp. and amended its |
Articles of Incorporation to change the name to Terzon Corp. On September 7, 1984, |
the Company amended its articles of incorporation changing its name to Candy Stripers |
Corporation, Inc. On January 6, 1998, the Company amended its Articles of Incorporation |
changing its name to Piedmont, Inc. On May 31, 2003, the Company amended its |
articles of Incorporation and changed its name to US Biodefense, Inc. |
|
The accompanying financial statements for the year ended November 30, 2005 include the |
accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiary Stem Cell Research Institute, Inc. |
All significant intercompany transactions and account balances have been eliminated. |
|
Following is a summary of the Company's significant accounting policies. |
|
Basis of Presentation |
|
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting |
principles generally accepted in the United States of America, which contemplate continuation |
of the Company as a going concern. The Company incurred a net loss for the year ended |
November 30, 2005 of $46,002 and at November 30, 2005, had an accumulated deficit |
of $3,877,822. In addition, the Company generates minimal revenue from its operations. |
These conditions raise substantial doubt as to the Company's ability to continue as a growing |
concern. These financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from |
the outcome of this uncertainty. These financial statements do not include any adjustments |
relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts, or amounts and |
classification of recorded asset amounts, or amounts and classification of liabilities that might |
be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern. |
|
Management plans to take the following steps that it believes will be sufficient to provide the |
Company with the ability to continue in existence. |
|
Management intends to raise financing through the issuance of its common stock or other means |
and interests that it deems necessary, with a view to moving forward with the development of the |
homeland security and biodefense products, and stem cell research. |

Notes to Financial Statements |
|
Use of Estimates |
|
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted |
in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that |
affect reported amounts of assets and liabilities, 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. |
|
Fair Value of Financial Instruments |
|
For certain of the Company's financial instruments, including cash and cash equivalents, prepaid |
expenses, accounts payable and deferred revenues, the carrying amounts approximate fair value |
due to their short maturities. |
|
Revenue Recognition |
|
The Company recognizes revenues when all of the criteria in SAB 104, Topic 13 - Revenue Recog- |
nition are met. Revenues are realized or realizable and earned when there exists persuasive evidence |
that an arrangement exists, delivery has occurred or services have been rendered, the Company's |
price to it's customer is fixed or determinable, and collectibility is reasonably assured. |
|
Revenues from services under contracts, including consulting, are recognized ratably over the term |
of the contract. In cases where the services are considered "project" in nature, the Company |
recognizes revenue as the services are performed. The contracts include the pricing agreed to by the |
Company and the customer and the criteria for payment. If at the outset of the customer arrangement |
the Company determines that the arrangement fee is not fixed or determinable or that collectibility is |
not probable, the Company defers the revenues and recognizes the revenues when the arrangement |
fee becomes due and payable or as cash is received when collectibility concerns exist. |
|
Deferred revenues consists of amounts billed in excess of revenues recognized on consulting services. |
Deferred revenues are subsequently recorded as revenues in a subsequent period using the revenue |
recognition policies. |
|
Concentration of Credit Risk |
|
Financial instruments which subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk include cash |
and cash equivalents. |
|
The Company maintains its cash in well-known banks selected based upon management's |
assessment of the bank's financial stability. Balances may periodically exceed the $100,000 |
federal depository insurance limit; however, the Company has not experienced any losses on |
deposits. 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 maintains |
allowances for anticipated losses, as required. |

|
Cash Equivalents |
|
For purposes of reporting cash flows, the Company considers all short-term investments with an |
original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalent. |
|
Comprehensive Income |
|
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 130, "Reporting Comprehensive |
Income," establishes standards for the reporting and display of comprehensive income and its |
components in the financial statements. For the years ended November 30, 2005, the Company |
has items that represent other comprehensive income, and accordingly, has included a schedule |
of comprehensive income in the financial statements. |
|
Advertising Costs |
|
Advertising costs are expensed as incurred. There were no advertising costs for the years |
ended November 30, 2005 and 2004. |
|
Income Taxes |
|
The Company accounts for income taxes under SFAS 109, "Accounting for Income Taxes." Under |
the asset and liability method of SFAS 109, deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized |
for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statements |
carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. Deferred tax |
assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income |
in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. |
|
Segment Reporting |
|
Based on the Company's integration and management strategies, the Company operated in a |
single business segment for the year ended November 30, 2005. |
|
Loss per Share |
|
In accordance with SFAS No. 128, "Earnings Per Share," the basic income / (loss) per common |
share is computed by dividing net income / (loss) available to common stockholders by the |
weighted average number of common shares outstanding. Diluted income per common share is |
computed similar to basic income 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. As of November 30, |
2005 and 2004, the Company does not have any equity or debt instruments outstanding that can be |
converted into common stock. |

|
Stock-Based Compensation |
|
The Company accounts for stock-based employee compensation arrangements in accordance |
with the provisions of Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25, "Accounting for Stock Issued |
to Employees" and complies with the disclosure provisions of SFAS 123, "Accounting for Stock- |
Based Compensation." Under APB 25, compensation cost is recognized over the vesting period |
based on the excess, if any, on the date of the grant of the deemed fair value of the Company's |
shares over the employee's exercise price. When the exercise price of the employee share |
options is less than the fair value price of the underlying shares on the grant date, deferred stock |
compensation is recognized and amortized to expense in accordance with FASB Interpretation |
No. 28 over the vesting period of the individual options. Accordingly, because the exercise price |
of the Company's employee options equals or exceeds the market price of the underlying shares |
on the date of grant, no compensation expense is recognized. Options or shares awards |
issued to non-employees are valued using the fair value method and expensed over the period |
services are provided. |
|
Impairment of Long-Lived Assets |
|
In the event that facts and circumstances indicate that the carrying value of a long-lived asset, |
including associated intangibles, may be impaired, an evaluation of recoverability is performed |
by comparing the estimated future undiscounted cash flows, associated with the asset or the |
asset's estimated fair value to the asset's carrying amount to determine if a write-down to market |
value or discounted cash flow is required. |
|
Recent Accounting Pronouncements |
|
In January 2003, the FASB issued Interpretation No 46, "Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities" |
(an interpretation of Accounting Research Bulletin (ARB) No. 51, Consolidation Financial State- |
ments). Interpretation 46 addresses consolidation by business enterprises of entities to which the |
usual condition of consolidation described in ARB-5 does not apply. The Interpretation changes |
the criteria by which one company includes another entity in its consolidated financial statements. |
The general requirement to consolidate under ARB-51 is based on the presumption that an enter- |
prise's financial statement should include all of the entities in which it has a controlling financial |
interest (i.e., majority voting interest). Interpretation 46 requires a variable interest entity to receive |
a majority of the entity's residual returns or both. A company that consolidated a variable interest |
entity is called the primary beneficiary of that entity. In December 2003, the FASB concluded to |
revise certain elements of FIN 46, primarily to clarify the required accounting for interests in variable |
interest entities. FIN-46R replaces FIN-46. that was issued in January, 2003. FIN-46R exempts |
certain entities from its requirements and provides for special effective dates for entities that have |
fully or partially applied FIN-46 as of December 24, 2003. In certain situations, entities have the |
option of applying or continuing to apply FIN-46 for a short period of time before applying IN-46R. |
In general, for all entities that were previously considered special purpose entities, FIN 46 should |
be applied for registrants who file under Regulation SX in periods ending after March 31, 2004, and |
for registrants who file under Regulation SB, in periods ending after December 15, 2004. The |
Company does not expect the adoption to have a material impact on the Company's financial |
position or results of operations. |

|
During April 2003, the FASB issued SFAS 149 - "Amendment of Statement 133 on Derivative |
Instruments and Hedging Activities", effective for contracts entered into or modified after |
September 30, 2003, except as stated below and for hedging relationships designated after |
September 30, 2003. In addition, except as stated below, all provisions of this Statement should |
be applied prospectively. The provisions of this Statement that relate to Statement 133 Implement- |
ation Issues that have been effective for fiscal quarters that began prior to June 15, 2003, should |
continue to be applied in accordance with their respective effective dates. In addition, paragraphs |
7(a) and 23(a), which relate to forward purchases or sales of when-issued securities or other |
securities that do not yet exist, should be applied to both existing contracts and new contracts |
entered into after September 30, 2003. The adoption of this statement had no impact on the |
Company's financial statements. |
|
During May 2003, the FASB issued SFAS 150 - "Accounting for Certain Financial Instruments with |
Characteristics of both Liabilities and Equity", effective for financial instruments entered into or |
modified after May 31, 2003, and otherwise is effective for public entities at the beginning of the |
first interim period beginning after June 15, 2003. This Statement establishes standards for how |
an issuer classifies and measures certain financial instrument with characteristics of both |
liabilities and equity. It requires that an issuer classify a freestanding financial instrument that is |
within its scope as a liability (or an asset in some circumstances). Many of those instruments |
were previously classified as equity. Some of the provisions of this Statement are consistent with |
the current definition of liabilities in FASB Concepts Statement No. 6, Element of Financial |
Statements. The adoption of this statement had no impact on the Company's financial statements. |
|
In December 2003, the FASB issued a revised SFAS No. 132, "Employers' Disclosures about |
Pensions and Other Postretirement Benefits" which replaces the previously issued Statement. The |
revised Statement increases the existing disclosures for defined benefit pension plans and other |
defined benefit postretirement plans. However, it does not change the measurement or recognition |
of those plans as required under SFAS No. 88, "Employers' Accounting for Settlements and |
|
Curtailments of Defined Benefit Pension Plans and for Termination Benefits," and SFAS No. 106, |
"Employers' Accounting for Postretirement Benefits Other Than Pensions." Specifically, the |
revised Statement requires companies to provide additional disclosures about pension plan assets, |
benefit obligations, cash flows, and benefit costs of defined benefit pension plans and other |
defined benefit postretirement plans. Also, companies are required to provide a breakdown of plan |
assets by category, such as debt, equity and real estate, and to provide certain expected rates |
of return and target allocation percentages for these asset categories. The Company has |
implemented this pronouncement and has concluded that the adoption has no material impact |
to the financial statements. |
|
In December, 2003, the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") issued Staff Accounting |
Bulletin ("SAB") No. 104, "Revenue Recognition." SAB 104 supersedes SAB 11, "Revenue |
Recognition in Financial Statements." SAB 104's primary purpose is to rescind accounting |
guidance contained in SAB 101 related to multiple element revenue arrangements, superseded |
as a result of the issuance of EITF 00-21, "Accounting for Revenue Arrangements with Multiple |
Deliverables." Additionally, SAB 104 rescinds the SEC's Revenue Recognition in Financial |
Statements Frequently Asked Questions and Answers (the FAQ) issued with SAB 101 that had |
been codified in SEC Topic, 13, Revenue Recognition. Selected portions of the FAQ have been |
incorporated into SAB 104. While the wording of SAB 104 has changed to reflect the issuance |
of EITF 00-21, the revenue recognition principles of SAB 101 remain largely unchanged by the |
issuance of SAB 104, which was effective upon issuance. The adoption of SAB 104 did not |
impact the financial statements. |

In March, 2004, the FASB approved the consensus reached on the Emerging Issues Task Forces |
(ETIF) Issue No. 03-1, "The Meaning of Other-Than-Temporary Impairment and Its Application to |
Certain Investments." The objective of this Issue is to provide guidance for identifying impaired |
investments. EITF 03-1 also provides new disclosure requirements for investments for investments |
are deemed to be temporarily impaired. In September 204, the FASB issued a FASB Staff |
Position (FSP) EITF 03-1-1 that delays the effective date of the measurement and recognition |
are effective only for annual periods ending after June15,2004. The Company has evaluated the |
impact of the adoption of the disclosure requirements of EITF 03-1 and does not believe it will have |
an impact to the Company's overall combined results of operations or combined financial position. |
Once the FASB reaches a final decision on the measurement and recognition provisions, the |
Company will evaluate the impact of the adoption of EITF 03-1. |
|
In November 2004, the FASB issued SFAS No. 151 "Inventory Costs, an amendment of ARB |
No. 43, Chapter 4 ("SFAS No. 151". The amendments made by SFAS 151 clarify that abnormal |
amount of idle facility expense, freight, handling costs, and wasted materials (spoilage) should be |
recognized as current-period charges and require the allocation of fixed production overheads to |
inventory based on the normal capacity of the production facilities. The guidance is effective for |
inventory costs incurred during fiscal years beginning after June 15, 2005. Earlier application is |
permitted for inventory costs incurred during fiscal years beginning after November 23, 2004. The |
Company has evaluated the impact of the adoption of SFAS 151, and does not believe the impact |
will be significant to the Company's overall results of operations or financial position. |
|
In December 2004, the FASB issued SFAS No. 152, "Accounting for Real Estate Time-Sharing |
Transactions-an amendment of FASB Statements No. 66 and 67" ("SFAS 152") SFAS 152 |
amends SFAS No. 66, "Accounting for Sales of Real Estate", to reference the financial accounting |
and reporting guidance for real estate time-sharing transactions that is provided in AICPA Statement |
of Position (SOP) 04-2, "Accounting for Real Estate Time-Sharing Transactions". SFAS 152 also |
amends SFAS No. 67, "Accounting for Costs and Initial Rental Operations of Real Estate Projects", |
to state that the guidance for (a) incidental operations and (b) costs incurred to sell real estate |
projects does not apply to real estate time-sharing transactions. The accounting for those operations |
and costs is subject to the guidance in SOP04-2. SFAS 152 is effective for financial statements |
for fiscal years beginning after June 15, 2005, with earlier applications encouraged. The Company |
has evaluated the impact of the adoption of SFAS 152, and does not believe the impact will be |
significant to the Company's overall results of operations or financial position. |
|
In December 2004, the FASB issued SFAS No. 153, "Exchanges of Nonmonetary Asset, an |
amendment of APB Opinion No. 29, Accounting for Nonmonetary Transactions." The amendments |
made by SFAS 153 are based on the principle that exchanges of nonmonetary assets should be |
measured based on the fair value of the assets exchanged. Further, the amendments eliminate |
the narrow exception for nonmonetary exchanges of similar productive assets and replace it with a |
broader exception for exchanges of nonmonetary assets that do not have commercial substance. |
Previously, Opinion 29 required that the accounting for an exchange of a productive asset for a |
similar productive asset or an equivalent interest in the same or similar productive asset should be |
based on the recorded amount of the asset relinquished. Opinion 29 provided an exception to its |
basis measurement principle (fair value) for exchanges of similar productive assets. That exception |
required that some nonmonetary exchanges, although commercially substantive, to be recorded on |
a carryover basis. By focusing the exception on exchanges that lack commercial substance, the |
FASB believes SFAS No. 153 is effective for nonmonetary asset exchanges occurring in fiscal |
periods beginning after June 15, 2005. Earlier application is permitted for nonmonetary asset |
exchanges occurring in fiscal periods beginning after the date of issuance. The provisions of SFAS |
No. 153 shall be applied prospectively. The Company has evaluated the impact of the adoption of |
SFAS 153, and does not believe the impact will be significant to the Company's overall results of |
operations or financial position. |

Notes to Financial Statements |
|
In December 2004, the FASB issued SFAS No. 123 (revised 2004), "Share-Based Payment" |
("SFAS 123R"). SFAS 123R will provide investors and other users of financial statements with |
more compete and neutral financial information by requiring that the compensation costs relating to |
share-based payment transactions be recognized in financial statements. That cost will be |
measured based on the fair value of the equity or liability instruments issued SFAS 123R covers |
a wide range of share-based compensation arrangements including share options, restricted |
share plans, performance-based awards, share appreciation rights and employee share purchase |
plans. SFAS 123R replaces SFAS No. 123, "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation", and |
supercedes APB Opinion No. 25, "Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees". SFAS 123, as |
originally issued in 1995, established as preferable a fair-value-based method of accounting for |
share-based payment transactions with employees. However, that statement permitted entities |
the option of continuing to apply the guidance in Opinion 25, as long as the footnotes to financial |
statements disclosed what net income would have been had the preferable fair-value based method |
been used. Public entities (other than those filing as small business issuers) will be required to |
apply SFAS 123R as of the first interim or annual reporting period that begins after June 15, 2005. |
The Company has evaluated the impact of the adoption of SFAS 123R and does not believe the |
impact will be significant to the Company's overall results of operations or financial position. |
|
In June, 2005, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ('FASB") issued SFAS No. 154, Account- |
ing Changes and Error Corrections - a replacement of APB No. 20 and FAS No. 3" ("SFAS No. 154"). |
SFAS No. 154 provides guidance on the accounting for and reporting of accounting changes and |
|
error corrections. It establishes, unless impracticable, retrospective application as the required |
method for reporting a change in accounting principle in the absence of explicit transition require- |
mints specify to the newly adopted accounting principle. SFAS No. 154 also provides guidance |
for determining whether retrospective application of a change in a accounting principle is impractical- |
able. The correction of an error in previously issued financial statements is not an accounting |
change. However, the reporting of an error correction involves adjustments to previously issued |
financial statements similar to those generally applicable to reporting an accounting change retro- |
spectively. Therefore, the reporting of a correction of an error by restating previously issued financial |
is also addressed by SFAS No. 154. SFAS No. 154 is required to be adopted in fiscal years |
beginning after December 15, 2005. The Company does not believe its adoption in fiscal year 2007 |
will have a material impact on its results of operations or financial position. |
|
In March, 2005, the SEC issued guidance on FASB SFAS 123R, "Share-Based Payments" ("SFAS |
No. 123R"). Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 107 ("SAB 107") was issued to assist preparers by simpli- |
fying some of the implementation challenges of SFAS No. 123R while enhancing the information |
that investors receive. SAB 107 creates a framework that is premised on two themes: (a) consider- |
able judgment will be required by preparers to successfully implement SFAS no. 123R, specifically |
when valuing employee stock options; and (b) reasonable individuals, acting in good faith, may |
conclude differently on the fair value of employee stock options. Key topics covered by SAB 107 |
include (a) valuation models - SAB 107 reinforces the flexibility allowed by SFAS No. 123R to |
choose an option-pricing model that meets the standard's fair value measurement objective; (b) |
expected volatility - SAB 107 provides guidance on when it would be appropriate to rely exclusively |
on either historical or implied volatility; and ( c) expected term - the new guidance includes examples |
and some simplified approaches to determining the expected term under certain circumstances. |
The Company will apply the principles of SAAB 107 in conjunction with its adoption of SOFAS No. |
123R. |

In June, 2005, the Emerging Issues Task Force (EAT) issued No. 05-06, "Determining the Abort- |
inaction Period of Leasehold Improvements Acquired in a Business Combination" (EAT No. 05-06). |
EAT No. 05-06 provides that the amortization period for leasehold improvements acquired in a |
business combination or purchased after the inception of a lease to be the shorter of (a) the useful |
life of the assets or (b) a term that includes required lease periods and renewals that are reason- |
ably assured upon the acquisition of the purchase. The guidance in EAT No. 05-06 will be applied |
prospectively and is effective for periods beginning afar June 29, 2005. The Company does not |
believe its adoption will have a material impact on its consolidated results of operations or |
financial position. |

<R>Note 2 - Marketable Securities Available For Sale |
|
On May 11, 2005, the Company entered into an agreement with a Partner. The Company will assist |
the Partner in identifying opportunities for commercialization of their listed technologies, while main- |
taining the confidentiality of the Partner. |
|
As compensation for providing these services, the Partner gave the Company 5,000,000 shares of |
Section 144 stock which is restricted from sale for twelve months from date of issue, May 11, 2005. |
The agreement is for a period of twenty four months. |
|
The Company recorded the stock at market price on the acquisition date which was two cents, or |
$100,000. The Company recorded revenue for the six month period from May through November, |
2005 in the amount of $25,000, with the balance of $75,000 included as deferred revenues on the |
Company's balance sheet at November 30, 2005. |
|
The Company has adopted SFAS 130 as required by the Financial Accounting Standards Board. |
SFAS 130 requires that securities that are available for sale be presented at market value on the |
balance sheet date. Unrealized gains and losses are recognized as a separate component of |
stockholders' equity. The specific identification method is used in calculating realized gains and |
losses. SFAS 30 also requires a statement of comprehensive income which adjusts net income |
for the unrealized activity. At November 30, 2005, the fair market value of common equity securities |
with a cost of $100,000 was $150,000. The unrealized gain of $50,000, net of the related income tax |
cost of $19,150 is included as a component of other comprehensive income.</R> |

Note 3 - Licenses |
|
The Company has agreed to exercise options to license stem cell technology through the University |
of British Columbia under two option agreements totaling $20,000. |
|
Having passed the initial validation phase, the Company is working toward a full licensing relation- |
ship and will begin pre-clinical analysis of how the cell line can be utilized. The Company is |
considering investigating the stem cells applications in combating ALS and Parkinson's disease. |
|
The licenses are for periods of ten to twenty years. The Company will review the licenses at least |
annually. When necessary, we record changes for impairments of long-lived assets for the amount |
by which the present value of future cash flows, or some other fair value measure, is less than the |
carrying value of the respective asset. |

as revenues received in advance and will be amortized ratably over the service period. |
|
The deferred portion of the agreement described in Note 2 totals $75,000 at November 30, 2005. |
|
Note 6 - Illegal Acts |
|
Section 10A of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended requires that the independent |
auditor utilize procedures designed to provide reasonable assurance of detecting illegal acts that |
would have a direct and material effect on the determination of financial statement amounts, and |
identify related party transactions that are material to the financial statements or otherwise require |
disclosure. |
|
Section 402 of the Sarbanes Oxley Act of 2002 makes it unlawful for public companies to directly |
or indirectly extend or maintain credit, or arrange for the extension of credit to their executive |
officers or directors. The scope of the prohibition on personal loans to executive officers and |
directors is not clear at this time, and there is little legislative history about Section 402 and the |
SEC has not yet issued any interpretive guidance concerning Section 402. |
|
The Company has reviewed all arrangements with their directors and executive officers to determine |
if any could fall within the scope of a personal loan. At various times during the year ended |
November 30, 2004, the Company advanced loans to its' President. There were three loans which |
ranged in amount from $30,000 to $45,000, all were repaid within sixty days, and there were no |
loans outstanding at November 30, 2004. The loans were issued to cover the cost of anticipated |
business expense and were re-paid timely and promptly. The Company has now established a |
clear policy that prohibits directors and executive officers from using advances, and other business |
loans for personal purposes. |
|
Note 7 - Comprehensive income |
|
Accounting principles generally require that recognized revenues, expenses, gains and losses be |
included in net income. Although certain changes in assets and liabilities, such as unrealized gains |
and losses on available for sale securities are reported as a separate component of the equity section |
of the balance sheet, such items, along with net income, are components of comprehensive income. |
|
The components of other comprehensive income and related tax effects for the year ended November 30, |
2005 are unrealized holding gain on available for sale securities, net of tax benefit of $19,150, for a net |
comprehensive loss of $30,850. |

ITEM 8. CHANGES IN AND DISAGREEMENTS WITH ACCOUNTANTS ON ACCOUNTING AND |
FINANCIAL DISCLOSURE |
|
On March 17, 2005, our Board of Directors approved the dismissal of Beckstead and Watts, LLP as our |
principal certifying accountants. None of the reports of Beckstead and Watts, LLP on our financial statements |
contained any adverse opinion or disclaimer of opinion, or was qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope or |
accounting principles, except as follows: Beckstead and Watts, LLPs report on our financial statements as of and for |
the year ended November 30, 2003 contained a separate paragraph, stating that: |
|
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming the Company will continue as a going |
concern. As discussed in Note 3 to the financial statements, the Company has had limited operations and have |
not commenced planned principal operations. This raises substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a |
going concern. Managements plans in regard to these matters are also described in Note 3. The financial |
statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty. |
|
During our two most recent fiscal years and during any subsequent interim periods preceding the date of |
termination, there were no disagreements with Beckstead and Watts, LLP on any matter of accounting principles or |
practices, financial statement disclosure, or auditing scope or procedure, which disagreement(s), if not resolved to |
Beckstead and Watts, LLPs satisfaction, would have caused them to refer to the subject matter of the disagreement(s) |
in connection with their report; and there were no "reportable events" as defined in Item 304 (a)(1)(v) of the Securities |
and Exchange Commission's Regulation S-K. |
|
While auditing our financial statements for the year ended November 30, 2004, Beckstead and Watts, LLP |
notified our management of certain transactions, which may have been made in violation of Section 402 (a) of the |
Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002. Beckstead and Watts, LLP discussed a possible expansion of audit procedures. In |
relation to such expanded audit procedures, Beckstead and Watts, LLP proposed a substantial increase in audit fees. |
|
As of March 18, 2005, we subsequently engaged E. Randall Gruber, CPA as our independent accountant for |
the fiscal year ending November 30, 2004. During the most recent two fiscal years through March 18, 2005 (the date of |
engagement), neither we nor anyone engaged on our behalf has consulted with E. Randall Gruber, CPA regarding: (i) |
either the application of accounting principles to a specified transaction, either completed or proposed; or the type of |
audit opinion that might be rendered on our financial statements; or (ii) any matter that was either the subject of a |
disagreement (as defined in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K). |
|
A Form 8-K has been filed with the Commission regarding this matter. |
|
ITEM 8A. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES |
|
We maintain a set of disclosure controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be |
disclosed in our reports filed under the Securities Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within |
the time periods specified by the SECs rules and forms. Disclosure controls are also designed with the objective of |
ensuring that this information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our chief executive |
officer and chief financial officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. |
|
Based upon their evaluation as of the end of the period covered by this report, David Chin, who serves as our |
chief executive officer and chief financial officer, concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures are not |
effective to ensure that information required to be included in our periodic SEC filings is recorded, processed, |
summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC rules and forms. |
|
Our board of directors was advised by E. Randall Gruber, CPA, PC, our independent registered public |
accounting firm, that during their performance of audit procedures for 2005 E. Randall Gruber, CPA, PC identified a |
material weakness as defined in Public Company Accounting Oversight Board Standard No. 2 in our internal control |
over financial reporting. |
|
-33- |
This deficiency consisted primarily of inadequate staffing and supervision that could lead to the untimely |
identification and resolution of accounting and disclosure matters and failure to perform timely and effective reviews. |
However, our size prevents us from being able to employ sufficient resources to enable us to have adequate segregation |
of duties within our internal control system, and resultantly, no change to our internal control over financial reporting |
has been made. Our management is required to apply their judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of |
possible controls and procedures. |

Section 16(a) Beneficial Ownership Reporting Compliance |
|
Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, requires the Company's directors and |
executive officers, and persons who beneficially own more than 10% of a registered class of the Company's equity |
securities, to file reports of beneficial ownership and changes in beneficial ownership of the Company's securities with |
the SEC on Forms 3 (Initial Statement of Beneficial Ownership), 4 (Statement of Changes of Beneficial Ownership of |
Securities) and 5 (Annual Statement of Beneficial Ownership of Securities). Directors, executive officers and beneficial |
owners of more than 10% of the Company's Common Stock are required by SEC regulations to furnish the Company |
with copies of all Section 16(a) forms that they file. Except as otherwise set forth herein, based solely on review of the |
copies of such forms furnished to the Company, or written representations that no reports were required, the Company |
believes that for the fiscal year ended November 30, 2005 beneficial owners did not comply with Section 16(a) filing |
requirements applicable to them to the extent they filed all form required under Section 16(a) in February 2006 and had |
no trading activity in 2005. |
|
Code of Ethics |
|
We have not adopted a Code of Business Conduct and Ethics that applies to our principal executive officer, |
principal financial officer, principal accounting officer or controller, or persons performing similar functions in that our |
sole officer and director serves in all the above capacities. |
|
ITEM 10. EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION |
|
Remuneration of Directors, Executive Officers and Significant Employees |
|
We do not have employment agreements with our executive officers. We have yet to determine the |
appropriate terms needed for the creation of employment agreements for our officers. There has been no discussion |
with any of our officers regarding any potential terms of these agreements, nor have such terms been determined with |
any specificity. We plan to have these agreements completed by the beginning of the next year. We have no proposal, |
understanding or arrangement concerning accrued earnings to be paid in the future. |
