A. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared
in accordance with rules established by the Securities
and Exchange Commission for Form 10-Q. Not all
financial disclosures required to present the financial
position and results of operations in accordance with
generally accepted accounting principles are included
herein. The reader is referred to the Company's
Financial Statements included in
the registrant's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the
year ended September 30, 1995. In the opinion of
management, all accruals and adjustments (each of which
is of a normal recurring nature) necessary for a fair
presentation of the financial position as of December
31, 1995 and the results of operations for the three-
month period then ended have been made. Significant
accounting policies have been consistently applied in
the interim financial statements and the annual financial
statements.
Investments
Effective September 30, 1994, the Company adopted, on
a prospective basis, Statement of
Financial Accounting Standard No. 115, "Accounting
for Certain Debt and Equity Securities" (SFAS 115) and
revised its policy for investments. Investments that may
be sold as part of the liquidity management of the Company
or for other factors are classified as available-for-sale
and are carried at fair market value. Unrealized gains
and losses on such securities are reported as a
separate component of stockholders' equity. Realized
gains and losses on sales of securities are reported in
earnings and computed using the specific identified
cost basis. As of December 31, 1995, there is no effect
on the Company's financial statements.
Loss per Share
Net loss per common share is based on the weighted
average number of common shares outstanding during
the period. Common stock equivalents, including
options to purchase common stock, are excluded from the
calculation as they are antidilutive.
Long-lived Assets
Statement of Accounting Standards No. 121, "Accounting
for the Impairment of Long-lived Assets and for Long-lived
Assets to be Disposed of" is effective for financial
statements for
fiscal years beginning after December 15, 1995. It is
the Company's opinion that the adoption of the statement
would have no material effect on its Financial Statements.

B. JOINT VENTURE
On October 30, 1995, the Company announced it had
acquired Alpha 1 Biomedical's interest in Viral
Technologies, Inc. ("VTI"). VTI was formed by the two
companies in 1986. This transaction gives CEL-SCI 100%
ownership of VTI. Under the terms of the agreement,
CEL-SCI gave Alpha 1 Biomedicals, Inc. 159,170 shares of
CEL-SCI common stock as the purchase price for net
assets with a fair value of approximately $170,000.
The acquisition was accounted for under the purchase
method of accounting; and as the acquisition
represents primarily research and development costs,
the purchase price was expensed and is included as
research and development expense for the three months
ended December 31, 1995. The contract also contains
provisions allowing for the repurchase of the shares
by CEL-SCI and limits the amount of shares that can be
sold in the open market at any given time.
Effective October 31, 1995, the Company has
consolidated CEL-SCI's and VTI's financial statements
and the consolidated financial statements reflect the
results of VTI's operations since the date of
acquisition. This results in a significant increase
in patent costs on the consolidated balance sheet.
Intercompany accounts
are
eliminated upon consolidation.
C. CONSTRUCTION OF NEW LABORATORY AND FUNDING
On January 31, 1994, the Company entered into a leasing
agreement with a non-affiliated landlord for 7,800 square feet
at 4820 Seton Drive, Baltimore, Maryland.
In the spring of 1994 the commenced construction of the new
laboratory. The cost of the laboratory buildout and equipment
was approximately $1,100,000. To fund this laboratory, the
Company borrowed funds from a bank at a rate of prime plus 2%.
The
outstanding loan balance at December 31, 1995 is
$750,418. CEL-SCI CORPORATION
Item 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
Liquidity and Capital Resources
The Company has had only limited revenues from operations
since its inception in March 1983. The Company has relied upon
proceeds realized from the public and private sale of its Common
Stock and short-term borrowings to meet its funding requirements.
Funds raised by the Company have been expended primarily in
connection with the acquisition of an exclusive worldwide license
to certain patented and unpatented proprietary technology
and know-how relating to the human immunological defense
system, the funding of VTI's research and development
program, patent applications, the repayment of debt, the
continuation of Companysponsored research and development and
administrative costs, and the construction of laboratory
facilities. Inasmuch as the Company does not anticipate
realizing significant revenues until such time as it enters
into licensing arrangements regarding the technology and
know-how licensed to it or until such time it receives
permission to sell its product (which could take a number
of years), the Company is mostly dependent upon short-term
borrowings and the proceeds from the sale of its securities
to meet all of its liquidity and capital resource requirements.
In February, 1992, the Company sold 1,035,000 Units
at $15.50 per Unit in a public offering. Each unit
consisted of five shares of Common Stock and five Common
Stock Purchase Warrants. Ten Warrants entitle the holder
to purchase one additional share of Common Stock at a price
of $46.50 per share prior to February 7, 1997.
In June and September, 1995, the Company completed
private offerings whereby it sold a total of 1,150,000 units at
$2.00 per unit. Each unit consisted of one share of Common
Stock and one Warrant. Each Warrant entitles the holder
to purchase one additional share of Common Stock at a price
of $3.25 per share at any time prior to June 30, 1997. The net
proceeds to the Company from these offerings, after the
payment of Sales Agent's
commissions and other offering expenses, were
approximately $2,000,000. On November 30, 1995 the Company and
the investors in these Private Offerings agreed to reduce the
exercise price of the Warrants to $1.60 per share in return for
the commitment on the part of the investors to exercise 312,500
Warrants ($500,000) prior to December 23, 1995 and an
additional 312,500 Warrants ($500,000) prior to January 31,
1996.
Results of Operations
Interest income during the three months ending December
31, 1995 reflects interest accrued on investments. The
interest income has declined from the previous year because the
interest income from the loans to VTI is eliminated upon
consolidation. Research and development expenses increased
because of the consolidation of Cel-Sci and Viral
Technologies research and development expenses. In addition,
the purchase of the second 50% of VTI from Alpha 1 was
expensed as research and development cost. (See Note B.)
Before consolidation, Cel-Sci's research and development costs
decreased by approximately $100,000 due to cost savings
achieved from the consolidation of research in the
Company's new lab. General and administrative expenses
increased due to interest expense on the note
and because of the
consolidation of Cel-Sci and Viral Technologies general
and administrative expenses.
PART II
Item 5. Other Information
In December, 1995, Cel-Sci's subsidiary, Viral
Technologies, (VTI) began phase I human testing in HIV-positive
individuals in a clinical trial in California. The trial will
involve injecting 22 individuals with CD4 counts between 50 and
600 with VTI's HGP30 HIV immunogen in a series of three
injections over a period of six months.
On January 4, 1996, the Company announced that it had acquired
a new patented medical technology which directs the body to
chose a specific immune response. This new T-cell Modulation
Process using "heteroconjugates" was acquired from CELL MED,
Inc. of Columbia, Maryland.
