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, 1997, 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, 1997,
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 subsidiary Bear Laboritories, Inc.
2. Commitments
-----------
Office Lease:
- -------------
The Company is obligated under an office lease commencing April 1, 1997 and
ending on March 31, 2000, to pay $6,826.54 in monthly installments for its
general office and research facility, which contains 8,623 sq. ft. of space.
A portion of this space is subleased to others.
3. Net Income Per Common Share
---------------------------
Income (loss) per common share for the six-month periods ended December 31,
1997 and December 31, 1996 has been computed on the basis of the weighted
number of common shares outstanding of 2,327,359 and 2,319,799 at December
31, 1997 and 1996 respectively.
Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial
Condition and Results of Operations
-------------------------------------------------
Operations
- ----------
The first six months of fiscal year 1998 ending December 31, 1997 resulted
in revenue of $201,138 from operations as compared to $380 for the
corresponding fiscal 1997 period. The revenues are from licensing Company
drug formulations and from product sales and contract research projects.
General and administrative expense and research and development expense are
substantially less than in 1997 due to general belt tightening. Interest
expense has been eliminated as a result of the cancellation of the Birklea
loan.
Financial Position
- ------------------
The Company went from a deficit shareholders' equity of $282,034 to a
negative shareholders' equity of $557,207 as a result of losses for the six
months of $275,110, which is down by $353,000 compared to the corresponding
six month period for last fiscal year.
<PAGE>
Liquidity and Capital Resources
- -------------------------------
It is estimated that an additional $24,000 during the next three months
will be required to fund completion or the Phase III Aztec clinical trials.
Other than facilities rent and salaries, there are no other commitments.
The Company is currently seeking additional licensing and contract formulation
arrangements; however there is no assurance such will be obtained. During
the past several months the Company has undertaken a licensing arrangement
on a nutritional supplement and contracts for formulation services for
certain botanical products. These contracts have provided monthly revenue
of approximately $40,000.
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.
The Company currently has very limited cash resources and is not now
seeking funding through securities sales. It is seeking a licensing
agreement for Aztec(r), as well as license and supply agreements which are
pending regulatory approval in three countries. The Company is also trying
to obtain funding through a variety of other sources, including industry
partners and possibly other means. The Company is currently deferring
salaries of some of its employees.
