CRYOPAK INDUSTRIES INC.
SCHEDULE C
FOR THE SIX MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30,1999
The Company is in the business of selling temperature controlling packing
solutions. The Company developed and holds patents for its cryopak product,
which is comprised of uniform, laminate pouches filled with a clear non-toxic
liquid. When frozen, cryopak is used to provide even distribution of
refrigeration over a large area, and unfrozen is used to protect products from
accidental freezing.
General Discussion
------------------
Sales in the first six months of its fiscal year have increased by approximately
58% and gross profits have increased by approximately 113% over the
corresponding six months of the prior year. These increases reflect the
Company's increased marketing efforts over the period.
In the first six months, the Company has directed its efforts to:
1) reviewing its business strategy;
2) reviewing its business plans generally and in particular its marketing,
production, and financial plans and continuing focussed sales activity in
the pharmaceutical and airline businesses;
3) doing a complete re-work of its retail product packaging;
4) negotiating an agreement in principal to acquire Northland Ice-Gel Inc. and
Northland Custom Packaging Inc.; and
5) validating packaging options with independent testing laboratories.
The Company has signed an agreement in principal to acquire Northland Ice-Gel
Inc. and Northland Custom Packaging Inc. and is currently finalizing a formal
agreement to finalize the purchase early in 2000.
The Company has appointed IIDA to represent it in selling its retail product
line. IIDA has projected sales of $20,000,000 over a five-year term of the
agreement. IIDA will be paid a commission on sales and has a right to purchase
common shares of the Company at $0.75 CDN per common share.
In order to achieve the foregoing, the Company has increased its spending to
redesign its logo and create a brand for its products. The Company has engaged
marketing consultants, Real World Marketing Inc., to assist and advise it in the
review and redevelopment of its marketing strategies.
Year 2000 Update
----------------
The Company is aware of the Year 2000 issues and has been taking the necessary
actions to ensure a smooth transition into the new millennium. The majority of
its office equipment, including computer hardware and software, are either Y2K
compliant or are being replaced or modified. Currently, the Company is
approximately 95% Y2K compliant. The Company estimates that all issues will be
resolved by November 1999. Information has been received from various suppliers
indicating their compliance and questionnaires have been sent to major
suppliers.
