Consolidated Notes to Financial Statements
(Unaudited)
1. Financial Statements
These unaudited financial statements should be read in conjunction with
the Company's financial statements as of June 30, 1995, included in the
Annual Report on Form 10-K. In the opinion of the Company, the
accompanying consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments
(consisting of normal recurring items) necessary to present fairly the
consolidated financial position and results of operations for the periods
presented. The results of operations for the three-month period ended
September 30, 1995, are not necessarily indicative of the results to be
expected for the full year. The Company's consolidated financial
statements include the accounts of its wholly-owned subsidiaries,
Colorado Nut Company, Inc. and Bear Laboratories, Inc.
2. Commitments
Office Lease:
The Company is obligated under an office lease commencing April 1, 1995
and ending on March 31, 1997, to pay $4,610.56 in monthly installments.
Clinical Trials:
The Company is continuing with clinical trials on its AIDS drug, Aztec ,
and has made commitments for ongoing patient and laboratory work totaling
$420,000, part of which has been completed.
3. Net Loss Per Common Share
Net income (loss) per common share for the three-month periods ended
September 30, 1995 and September 30, 1994 has been computed on the basis
of the weighted number of common shares outstanding of 2,033,038 and
1,914,377 at September 30, 1995 and 1994 respectively.
4. Credit Arrangements - Birklea, Ltd.
Effective November 30, 1993, the Company entered into a Credit Agreement
with Birklea, Ltd, a major shareholder of the Company, whereby Birklea,
Ltd. agreed to use its best efforts to provide up to $10,000,000 in
financing to the Company. Advances under the arrangement bear interest at
prime rate set by Morgan Guaranty Bank, New York. The convertible
promissory note thereunder is secured by the Company's right, title and
interest in patent applications, patents, trade names, know-how and trade
secrets relating to existing and future drug formulations relating to the
drug commonly known as AZT. At September 30, 1995, the Company had drawn
down $1,667,000 pursuant to the Credit Agreement. Subject to the Company
having sufficient cash resources or alternative borrowing resources,
principal is payable July 15, 1996 and interest is payable quarterly
commencing March 31, 1994. Birklea has an option to convert all or any
portion of the balance of this note to common stock of the Company thereby
increasing its holdings to approximately 54% of the outstanding common
stock of the Company.

Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial
Condition and Results of Operations
During the first three months of fiscal year 1996, current assets decreased
by $104,848 to $385,228, which was due to the loss for the period of $314,153.
Operations
Comparison of the nine-month periods ended September 30, 1995 and
September 30, 1994
Net sales decreased for the period by 30% from the prior corresponding
period and relate to snack items. Cost of sales is down for the period,
reflective of the lower sales. Research and development costs are
down $83,535 from the corresponding 1994 period.
The net loss for the nine months was down $67,380 from the prior year,
largely due to a reduction in research and development expenses.
The Company continues to seek industry partners, both U.S. and
international, for licensing agreements for the Company's research
products. In addition, the Company continues to seek opportunities to
perform research with respect to drug formulations on a contract basis.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
The Company in the past was dependent upon Birklea, Ltd., an Irish
corporation, and other outside sources to provide equity and/or debt
financing to the Company to fund its research and development and other
administrative costs. To some extent, this dependency has been reduced in
the past nine months due to the licensing/option agreement with Burroughs
Wellcome. It is estimated that an additional $190,000 during the next
three months will be required to complete the Phase III Aztec clinical
trials. The Company is currently seeking funding from outside sources,
including licensing arrangements. There is no assurance such funding will
be available, or if available, on terms favorable or acceptable to the
Company. During October 1995 the Company sold 52,800 shares of common
stock for a total of $369,600 pursuant to Regulation S under the Securities
Act of 1993 to three non-residents of the U.S. These funds are to pay for
clinical trials and general and administrative expenses.
Except as indicated above, there are no planned expenditures outside the
normal operating costs of the Company which will cause the Company to make
any extraordinary plans for handling any cash requirements within the
foreseeable future.
