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 six- month period
ended December 31, 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 $286,000, part of which has been completed.
3. Net Loss Per Common Share
______________________________
Net income (loss) per common share for the six-month periods ended
December 31, 1995 and December 31, 1994 has been computed on the basis
of the weighted number of common shares outstanding of 2,058,123 and
1,915,661 at December 31, 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 December 31, 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 six months of fiscal year 1996, current assets decreased
by $125,337 to $364,739, which was due to the loss for the period of
$948,031.
Operations
__________
Comparison of the six-month periods ended December 31, 1995
and December 31, 1994
Net sales decreased for the period by 26% 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 $103,700 from the corresponding 1994 period.
The net loss for the six months increased $1,112,125 from the prior
year, due to a loss in licensing income.
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 was
reduced due to the $1,200,000 licensing/option agreement with
Burroughs Wellcome in fiscal 1995. In December 1995 Wellcome informed
the Company that it was not going to exercise its option on Aztec and
thus no further funding from this source is currently expected. It is
estimated that an additional $165,000 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. In
February 1996, the Company sold 36,364 shares pursuant to Regulation S
for a total of $100,000. 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.
