PART I

This Annual Report contains forward-looking statements as defined under the federal securities laws. Actual results could vary materially. Factors that could cause actual results to vary materially are described herein and in other documents we file from time to time with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Although we believe expectations reflected in such forward-looking statements are reasonable based upon the assumptions in this Annual Report, they may prove to be inaccurate and consequently our actual results could differ materially from our expectations set out in this annual report.

ITEM 1.   BUSINESS.

HISTORY

We incorporated in Massachusetts in December 1982 and have been publicly-owned since November 1990. References to our Company contained herein include our two wholly-owned subsidiaries, Precise Medical, Inc. and Wood’s Precision Optics Corporation, Limited, except where the context otherwise requires.

OUR BUSINESS

We have been a developer and manufacturer of advanced optical instruments since 1982.  We design and produce high-quality medical instruments, optical thin film coatings, micro-optics with characteristic dimensions less than 1 mm and other advanced optical systems. Our medical instrumentation line includes laparoscopes, arthroscopes and endocouplers and a line of world-class 3-D endoscopes for use in minimally invasive surgical procedures. We are registered to the ISO 9001:2000, ISO 13485:2003, and Canadian Medical Devices Conformity Assessment System, or CMDCAS, Quality Standards, and comply with the FDA Good Manufacturing Practices and the European Union Medical Device Directive for CE marking of our medical products. Our website is www.poci.com. Information contained on our website does not constitute part of this annual report.

Principal Products and Services and Methods of Distribution.

Medical Products: Endoscopes and Image Couplers. We have manufactured, since 1982, medical products including endoscopes, as well as image couplers, beamsplitters and adapters, all of which are used as accessories to endoscopes. We have developed and sold endoscopes incorporating various optical technologies for use in a variety of minimally invasive surgical and diagnostic procedures. Our current line of specialized endoscopes include arthroscopes, which are used in joint surgery, laryngoscopes, which are used in the diagnosis of diseases of the larynx, laparoscopes, which are used in abdominal surgery, ENT scopes, which are used for ear, nose and throat procedures, and stereo endoscopes and cameras, which are used in cardiac and general surgery and enable surgeons to visualize the surgical field in 3-D imagery.

We produce autoclavable endoscopes for various applications, which are CE mark certified for European use, and have been designed and tested to withstand sterilization by autoclave which is sterilization in a superheated steam under pressure, as well as all other commonly used medical sterilization means. The major benefits of instruments that can be autoclaved include increased patient safety, quick turnaround, and elimination of hazardous sterilant and by-product materials, all of which provide increased value to the user compared to alternative sterilization methods.

Since 1985, we developed, manufactured and sold a proprietary product line of instrumentation to couple endoscopes to video cameras. Included in this product line are imaging couplers. For example, the Series 200 Parfocal Zoom Couplers and the Series 950 Universal Couplers, which physically connect the endoscope to a video camera system and transmit the image viewed through the scope to the video camera. Our Series 800 Beamsplitters perform the same function while preserving for the viewer an eye port for direct, simultaneous viewing through the endoscope. These devices are sold primarily to endoscope and video camera manufacturers and suppliers for resale under our customers’ names. All of the image couplers and beamsplitters that we manufacture are approved for surgery-approved sterilization. We believe we are one of only a few manufacturers of autoclavable image couplers worldwide.

Medical Products: Next Generation Lenslock TM Endoscopes. We continue to develop and ship our next generation endoscopes that incorporate our leading proprietary Lenslock TM technology (patent pending). Since December 2005, we have shipped over 400 ENT endoscopes with diameter of 2.7 mm that incorporate Lenslock TM technology. We recently completed prototypes of our 4 mm Lenslock TM sinuscope, and 5 mm Lenslock TM laproscope, and are

3

Table of Contents

actively pursuing development of our new 4 mm Lenslock TM wide field arthroscope. We believe that Lenslock TM technology has advantages over competitive products due to ease of manufacture and repair, superior image quality, significant cost effectiveness and quality of repair and that further incorporating this into our endoscope product line could lead to increased sales of this product.

Medical Products: Sub-millimeter optics & endoscopes. Utilizing recently developed proprietary techniques, including patent pending micro-precision TM lens fabrication technology, we design and manufacture ultra-small lenses, prisms and assemblies with sizes as small as 0.2 mm. Assemblies range in complexity from the combination of two lens elements to entire imaging systems utilizing multiple micro-optical elements in combination with larger, conventional optics. Developments in medical procedures requiring minimally invasive visualization in very small spaces, in such specialties as spinal surgery, neurosurgery, cardiothoracic surgery, cardiology and pulmonology, have led to products requiring lenses and endoscopes as small as 0.2 millimeters in diameter. Utilizing our proprietary technology, we currently manufacture a number of products with length and/or diameter less than 1 mm and are actively expanding our product line in this area.

Medical Products: Custom design & device production. We design prototypes and manufacture custom optical medical products to satisfy our customers’ specific requirements. During fiscal year 2007, we completed development and began shipments of an advanced surgical visualization system to a significant new customer. We have received initial follow-on orders for delivery in fiscal year 2009.  The size and extent of future follow-on orders will depend on market acceptance and other considerations.

Industrial Products. In addition to our medical products, we also sell components and assemblies such as image couplers and beamsplitters specially designed for industrial use, including the video-monitored examination of a variety of industrial cavities and interiors, as well as specialized borescopes for industrial applications. Utilizing micro-precision TM technology, we also design and manufacture sub-millimeter optical components and assemblies for industrial use.

Night Vision Optics. We continue to pursue a partnership effort for the proprietary development of a new class of color night vision devices including a new patent-pending eyepiece lens. With a second round of prototypes nearing completion, it is expected that the product incorporating our new night vision lenses will be evaluated by the U.S. government in the near future. We cannot control the timing of current evaluations and cannot therefore predict when, if ever, these night vision lenses might begin to generate revenue.

Optical System Design and Development Services. We are able to provide customers with advanced lens design, imaging analysis, optical system design, structural design and analysis, prototype production and evaluation, optics testing, and optical system assembly. Some of our efforts have led to optical system production business for our Company, and we believe our prototype development service may lead to new product production from time to time.

Competition and Markets.

We sell our products in a highly competitive market and we compete for business with both foreign and domestic manufacturers. Many of our current competitors are larger and have substantially greater resources than we do. In addition, there is an ongoing risk that other domestic or foreign companies who do not currently service or manufacture products for our target markets, some with greater experience in the optics industry and greater financial resources than we have, may seek to produce products or services that compete directly with ours.

We believe that competition for sales of our medical products and services, which have been principally sold to medical device companies who incorporate our products into their systems, is based on performance and other technical features, as well as other factors, such as scheduling and reliability, in addition to competitive pricing. We market and sell our endoscopes to customers for incorporation into their own product lines and for resale under their own name. A number of domestic and foreign competitors also sell endoscopes to to these customers and our share of the endoscope market is nominal. We believe that, while our resources are substantially more limited than those of our competitors, we can compete successfully in this market on the basis of product quality, price, delivery and innovation.

We currently sell our image couplers, beamsplitters and adapters to a market that consists of approximately 30 to 35 potential customers who manufacture and sell video cameras, endoscopes and video-endoscopy systems. In the past, we have been successful in marketing and selling our products to approximately two-thirds of these customers, and currently estimate that we maintain approximately 20% to 30% of the market share in these products. We plan to continue to focus our sales and marketing efforts in this area, and to work to increase our market share. However, a challenge we face is customers’ own in-house capabilities to manufacture such products.  We estimate that

4

Table of Contents

approximately 50% of the market demand for image couplers, beamsplitters and adapters is met by these “captive” facilities. In general, and despite in-house capacity, we believe that many customers continue to purchase products from us in order to devote their own technical resources to their primary products, such as cameras or endoscopes.

Marketing.

In May 2006, we initiated efforts to update our sales and marketing activities.  As part of these efforts, we generated new marketing materials for recently developed products, including a newly designed website, www.poci.com.  Since initiating these efforts, we have taken a much more comprehensive view of trade show opportunities, targeting those with specific relevance to recently developed products. Coupled with the recently renewed efforts for select key trade show attendance by our Chief Scientific Officer as well as our overall sales and marketing staff, we believe we have a greater opportunity to reach and follow up a broader customer base than we have previously been able to achieve. These efforts have contributed to recent year-over-year revenue increases, and continue to generate prospects for our leading technologies including, Lenslock TM, micro-precision TM, and custom applications of our core optical capabilities. This includes renewed interest in some of our well-developed products such as our “classic” autoclavable endoscopes and endocouplers, as well as new applications with our micro (fiberoptic) endoscopes.

International Business.

We have had negligible direct export sales to date. However, our medical products have received the CE Mark Certification, which permits sales into the European marketplace. We may establish or use production facilities overseas to produce key components for our business, such as lenses. Since the 1990s we have maintained a Hong Kong subsidiary to support business and quality control activities as required throughout Asia. We believe that the cost savings from such production may be essential to our ability to compete on a price basis in the medical products area particularly and to our profitability generally.

Research and Development.

We believe that our future success depends to a large degree on our ability to continue to conceive and develop new optical products and services to enhance the performance characteristics and methods of manufacture of existing products. Accordingly, we expect to continue to seek to obtain product-related design and development contracts with customers and to invest our own funds on research and development. We spent $757,852 and $1,312,240 of our own funds, net of reimbursements, during fiscal years 2008 and 2007, respectively, on research and development.

We are currently incorporating our Lenslock TM technology (patent pending) into our line of endoscopes. This proprietary technology ensures lower cost, easier reparability and enhanced durability. We are also aggressively pursuing the design, development and manufacture of ultra-small instruments, some with lenses less than one millimeter in diameter, utilizing its micro-precision TM lens technology (patent pending).

Raw Materials and Principal Suppliers.

The basic raw material of the majority of our product line is precision grade optical glass, which we obtain from a few suppliers, principally Schott and Ohara. For optical thin film coatings, the basic raw materials we utilize are metals and dielectric compounds, which we obtain from a variety of chemical suppliers. Certain of the thin film coatings utilized in our products are currently procured from an outside supplier, but most thin film coatings are produced in-house. We believe that our demand for these raw materials and thin film coating services is small relative to the total supply, and that the materials and services required for the production of our products are currently available in sufficient production quantities and will be available for fiscal year 2009. We believe, however, that there are relatively few suppliers of the high quality lenses and prisms, which our endoscopes require. In response, we have established our own optical shop for producing ultra-high quality prisms, micro-optics and other specialized optics for a variety of medical and industrial applications.

Patents and Trademarks.

We rely, in part, upon patents, trade secrets and proprietary knowledge as well as personnel policies and employee confidentiality agreements concerning inventions and other creative efforts to develop and to maintain our

5

Table of Contents

competitive position. We do not believe that our business is dependent upon any patent, patent pending or license, although we believe that trade secrets and confidential know-how may be important to our scientific and commercial success.

We plan to file for patents, copyrights and trademarks in the United States and in appropriate countries to protect our intellectual property rights to the extent practicable. We hold the rights to several United States and foreign patents and have several patent applications pending, including those for our new generation of 3-D endoscopes, our Lenslock TM endoscope technology and our innovative micro-precision TM lens technology. These patents have expiration dates ranging from June 2009 to June 2028.  We know of no infringements of our patents. We plan to protect our patents from infringement in each instance where we determine that doing so would be economical in light of the expense involved and the level and availability of our financial resources. While we believe that our pending applications relate to patentable devices or concepts, there can be no assurance that patents will be issued or that any patents issued can be successfully defended or will effectively limit the development of competitive products and services.

Employees.

As of June 30, 2008, we had 17 full-time employees and 7 part-time employees. There were 13 employees in manufacturing, 6 in engineering/research and development, 1 in sales and marketing and 4 in finance and administration.  We are not a party to any collective bargaining agreements.  We believe our relations with our employees are good.

Customers.

Revenues from our largest customers, as a percentage of total revenues, for fiscal years 2008 and 2007 were as follows:

No other customer accounted for more than 10% of our revenues in fiscal years 2008 and 2007. At June 30, 2008, receivables from our largest customers were 27%, 25% and 17% of the total accounts receivable.

Environmental Matters.

Our operations are subject to a variety of federal, state and local laws and regulations relating to the discharge of materials into the environment or otherwise relative to the protection of the environment. From time to time we use a small amount of hazardous materials in our operations. We believe that we comply with all applicable environmental laws and regulations.

Government Regulations on the Business.

Domestic Regulation. We currently develop, manufacture and sell several medical products, the marketing of which is subject to governmental regulation in the United States. Medical devices are regulated in the United States by the Food and Drug Administration, or FDA, and, in some cases, by certain state agencies. The FDA regulates the research, testing, manufacture, safety, effectiveness, labeling, promotion and distribution of medical devices in the United States. Generally, medical devices require clearance or approval prior to commercial distribution. Additionally, certain material changes to, and changes in intended use of, medical devices also are subject to FDA review and clearance or approval. Non-compliance with applicable requirements can result in failure of the FDA to grant pre-market clearance or approval, withdrawal or suspension of approval, suspension of production, or the imposition of various other penalties.

We notified the FDA of our intent to market our endoscopes, image couplers, beamsplitters, adapters and video ophthalmoscopes, and the FDA has determined that we may market such devices, subject to the general controls provisions of the Food, Drug and Cosmetic Act. This FDA permission was obtained without the need to undergo a

6

Table of Contents

lengthy and expensive approval process due to the FDA’s determination that such devices meet the regulatory standard of being substantially equivalent to an existing approved device.

In the future, we plan to market additional endoscopes and related medical products that may require the FDA’s permission to market such products. We may also develop additional products or seek to sell some of our current or future medical products in a manner that requires us to obtain the permission of the FDA to market such products, as well as the regulatory approval or license of other federal, state and local agencies or similar agencies in other countries. The FDA has authority to conduct detailed inspections of manufacturing plants in order to assure that “good manufacturing practices” are being followed in the manufacture of medical devices, to require periodic reporting of product defects to the FDA and to prohibit the sale of devices which do not comply with law.

Foreign Requirements. Sales of medical device products outside the United States are subject to foreign regulatory requirements that may vary from country to country. Our failure to comply with foreign regulatory requirements would jeopardize our ability to market our products in foreign jurisdictions. The regulatory environment in the European Union for medical device products differs from that in the United States. Medical devices sold in the European Economic Area must bear the CE mark. Devices are classified by manufacturers according to the risks they represent, with a classification of Class III representing the highest risk devices and Class I representing the lowest risk devices. Once a device has been classified, the manufacturer can follow one of a series of conformity assessment routes, typically through a registered quality system, and demonstrate compliance to a “European Notified Body.” The CE mark may then be applied to the device. Maintenance of the system is ensured through annual on-site audits by the notified body and a post-market surveillance system requiring the manufacturer to submit serious complaints to the appropriate governmental authority. All of our medical products are CE mark certified.

ITEM 1A.  RISK FACTORS.

An investment in our common stock involves a substantial degree of risk.  Before making an investment decision, you should give careful consideration to the following risk factors in addition to the other information contained in this annual report.  The following risk factors, however, may not reflect all of the risks associated with our business or an investment in our common stock.  You should invest in our Company only if you can afford to lose your entire investment.

RISKS RELATED TO OUR BUSINESS

Our quarterly financial results depend on a large number of factors and therefore may vary quarter to quarter, As a result, we cannot predict with a high degree of certainty our operating results in any particular fiscal quarter.

Our quarterly operating results may vary significantly depending upon factors such as:

·                                         the timing of completion of significant orders;

·                                         the timing and amount of our research and development expenditures;

·                                         the costs of initial product production in connection with new products;

·                                         the timing of new product introductions – both by us and by our competitors;

·                                         the timing and level of market acceptance of new products or enhanced versions of our existing products;

·                                         our ability to retain existing customers and customers’ continued demand for our products and services;

·                                         our customers’ inventory levels, and levels of demand for our customers’ products and services; and

·                                         competitive pricing pressures.

We cannot be certain whether we will be able to grow or sustain revenues or achieve or maintain profitability on a quarterly or annual basis or that levels of revenue and/or profitability may not vary from one such period to another.

Table of Contents

Our independent auditors have issued a going concern opinion and, if we do not generate enough cash from operations to sustain our business, we may have to liquidate assets or curtail our operations.

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming we will continue as a going concern.  During the years ended June 30, 2008 and 2007, we incurred net losses of $1,623,354 and $2,889,829, respectively.  Our auditors have issued a going concern qualification in their opinion related to our financial statements issued with this 2008 annual report on Form 10-K.  This opinion is based upon our history of operating losses, negative cash flows from operations, and our cash position as of June 30, 2008.

Conditions exist which raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.  Our ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon our ability to generate sufficient cash flows to meet our obligations on a timely basis, to obtain additional financing as may be required, and ultimately to attain profitable operations.  However, we may not be able to obtain additional financing or achieve profitable operations or sufficient cash flows in the future.

Our existing and future debt obligations could impair our liquidity and financial condition.

As of June 30, 2008, we had outstanding notes payable of $600,000, and we may incur additional debt in the future to fund all or part of our capital requirements.  Effective June 25, 2008, we completed a financing whereby we issued 10% senior secured convertible notes and warrants.  Our outstanding debt and future debt obligations could impair our liquidity and could:

·                 make it more difficult for us to satisfy our other obligations;

·                 require us to dedicate a substantial portion of any cash flow we may generate to payments on our debt obligations, which would reduce the availability of our cash flow to fund working capital, capital expenditures and other corporate requirements;

·                 impede us from obtaining additional financing in the future for working capital, capital expenditures, acquisitions and general corporate purposes; and

·                 make us more vulnerable in the event of a downturn in our business prospects and limit our flexibility to plan for, or react to, changes in our industry.

If we were to fail in the future to make any required payment under agreements governing indebtedness, or equity issues, or fail to comply with the financial and operating covenants contained in those agreements, we would be in default in regards to that financing transaction.  A debt default could significantly diminish the market value and marketability of our common stock.  Our lenders would have the ability to require that we immediately pay all outstanding indebtedness, and we might not have sufficient assets to satisfy their demands.  In this event, we may be forced to seek protection under bankruptcy laws, which could harm our future operations and overall financial condition.

We rely on a small number of customers and cannot be certain they will consistently purchase our products in the future.

In the fiscal year ended June 30, 2008, our three largest customers represented approximately 25%, 20% and 11%, respectively, of our total revenues. In the fiscal year ended June 30, 2007, our three largest customers represented approximately 27%, 22% and 10%, respectively, of our total revenues. No other customer accounted for more than 10% of our revenues during those periods. At June 30, 2008, receivables from our three largest customers were 27%, 25% and 17%, respectively, of the total accounts receivable.

In the future, a small number of customers may continue to represent a significant portion of our total revenues in any given period. We cannot be certain that such customers will consistently purchase our products at any particular rate over any subsequent period.  A loss of these customers could adversely affect our financial performance.

We rely heavily upon the talents of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Scientific Officer, the loss of whom could severely damage our business.

Our performance depends to a large extent on a small number of key scientific, technical, managerial and marketing personnel. In particular, we believe our success is highly dependent upon the services and reputation of our Chief Executive Officer, Mr. Richard E. Forkey. Loss of Mr. Forkey’s services could severely damage our business.

Table of Contents

Additionally, Dr. Joseph N. Forkey, our Executive Vice President and Chief Scientific Officer, provides highly valuable contributions to our capabilities in optical instrument development, in management of new technology and in potentially significant longer-term initiatives in biophysics and biomedical instrumentation. The loss of Dr. Forkey’s scientific contributions could severely damage our business.

We must continue to be able to attract employees with the scientific and technical skills that our business requires and if we are unable to attract and retain such individuals, our business could be severely damaged.

Our ability to attract employees with a high degree of scientific and technical talent is crucial to the success of our business. There is intense competition for the services of such persons, and we cannot guarantee that we will be able to attract and retain individuals possessing the necessary qualifications.

We have a number of large, well-financed competitors who have research and marketing capabilities that are superior to ours.

The industries in which we compete are highly competitive. Many of our existing and potential competitors have greater financial resources and manufacturing capabilities, more established and larger marketing and sales organizations and larger technical staffs than we have. Other companies, some with greater experience in the telecommunications, optics, semiconductor or medical products industries, are seeking to produce products and services that compete with our products and services.

We are subject to a high degree of regulatory oversight and we cannot be certain that we will continue to receive the necessary regulatory approvals.

The FDA has allowed us to market the medical products we currently sell in the United States. However, prior FDA approval may be required before we can market additional medical products that we may develop in the future. We may also seek to sell current or future medical products in a manner that requires us to obtain FDA permission to market such products. We may also require the regulatory approval or license of other federal, state or local agencies or comparable agencies in other countries.

We cannot be certain that we will continue to receive the FDA’s permission to market our current products or obtain the necessary regulatory permission, approvals or licenses for the marketing of any of our future products. Also, we cannot predict the impact on our business of FDA regulations or determinations arising from future legislation or administrative action.

We face risks inherent in product development and production under fixed price purchase orders and we cannot be sure that these purchase orders will be profitable over time.

A portion of our business has been devoted to research, development and production under fixed price purchase orders. For our purposes, a fixed price purchase order is any purchase order under which we will provide products or services for a fixed price over an extended period of time, usually six months or longer.  Fixed price purchase orders represented approximately 25% to 50% of our total revenues during the last several years. We expect that revenues from fixed price purchase orders will continue to represent a significant portion of our total revenues in future fiscal years.

Because they involve performance over time, we cannot predict with certainty the expenses involved in meeting our obligations under fixed price purchase orders. Therefore, we can never be sure at the time we enter into any single fixed price purchase order that such purchase order will be profitable for us.

Third parties may infringe on our patents and as a result, we could incur significant expense in protecting our patents or not have sufficient resources to protect them.

We hold a number of patents that are important to our business. Although we are not currently aware of any past or present infringements of our patents, we plan to protect these patents from infringement and obtain additional patents whenever feasible. To this end, we have obtained confidentiality agreements from our employees and consultants and others who have access to the design of our products and other proprietary information. Protecting and obtaining patents, however, is both time consuming and expensive. We therefore may not have the resources necessary to assert all potential patent infringement claims or pursue all patents that might be available to us.

9

Table of Contents

Third parties may claim that we have infringed on their patents and as a result, we could be prohibited from using all or part of any technology used in our products.

Should third parties claim a proprietary right to all or part of any technology that we use in our products, such a claim, regardless of its merit, could involve us in costly litigation. If successful, such a claim could also result in us being unable to freely use the technology that was the subject of the claim, or sell products embodying such technology.

We depend on the availability of certain key supplies and services that are available from only a few sources; if we experience difficulty with a supplier, we may have difficulty finding alternative sources of supply.

Certain key supplies used in our products, particularly precision grade optical glass, are available from only a few sources, each of which is located outside the United States. Also, outside vendors grind and polish certain of our lenses and other optical components, such as prisms and windows. Based upon our ordering experience to date, we believe the materials and services required for the production of our products are currently available in sufficient quantities. Our requirements are small relative to the total supply, and we are not currently encountering problems with availability. However, this does not mean that we will continue to have timely access to adequate supplies of essential materials and services in the future or that supplies of these materials and services will be available on satisfactory terms when the need arises. Our business could be severely damaged if we become unable to procure essential materials and services in adequate quantities and at acceptable prices.

From time to time, subcontractors may produce certain of our products for us, and our business is subject to the risk that these subcontractors fail to make timely delivery. Our products and services are also from time to time used as components of the products and services of other manufacturers. We are therefore subject to the risk that manufacturers that integrate our products or services into their own products or services are unable to acquire essential supplies and services from third parties in a timely fashion.

Our customers may claim that the products we sold them were defective and if our insurance is not sufficient to cover a claim, we would be liable for the excess.

Like any manufacturer, we are and always have been exposed to liability claims resulting from the use of our products. We maintain product liability insurance to cover us in the event of liability claims, and as of September 26, 2008, no such claims have been asserted or threatened against us. However, we cannot be certain that our insurance will be sufficient to cover all possible future product liabilities.

We would be liable if our business operations harmed the environment and a failure to maintain compliance with environmental laws could severely damage our business.

Our operations are subject to a variety of federal, state and local laws and regulations relating to the protection of the environment.  From time to time, we use hazardous materials in our operations. Although we believe that we are in compliance with all applicable environmental laws and regulations, our business could be severely damaged by any failure to maintain such compliance.

RISKS RELATED TO OUR STOCK

Trading in our common stock is limited and the price of our common stock may be subject to substantial volatility.

Our common stock was delisted from the NASDAQ Capital Market at the opening of business on December 27, 2005, and is now traded on the Over-The-Counter Bulletin Board, or OTCBB, under the ticker symbol “POCI.OB,” where we expect our common stock to remain for the near future. Broker-dealers often decline to trade in OTCBB stocks given the market for such securities is often limited, the stocks are more volatile and the risk to investors is greater. These factors may reduce the potential market for our common stock by reducing the number of potential investors. This may make it more difficult for investors in our common stock to sell shares to third parties or to otherwise dispose of their shares. This could cause our stock price to decline.

Additionally, the price of our common stock may be volatile as a result of a number of factors, including, but not limited to, the following:

·                 our ability to successfully conceive and to develop new products and services to enhance the performance characteristics and methods of manufacture of existing products;

10

Table of Contents

·                 our ability to retain existing customers and customers’ continued demand for our products and services;

·                 the timing of our research and development expenditures and of new product introductions;

·                 the timing and level of acceptance of new products or enhanced versions of our existing products; and

·                 price and volume fluctuations in the stock market at large which do not relate to our operating performance.

“Penny stock” rules may make buying or selling our securities difficult which may make our stock less liquid and make it harder for investors to buy and sell our securities.

Trading in our securities is subject to the SEC’s “penny stock” rules and it is anticipated that trading in our securities will continue to be subject to the penny stock rules for the foreseeable future.  The SEC has adopted regulations that generally define a penny stock to be any equity security that has a market price of less than $5.00 per share, subject to certain exceptions. These rules require that any broker-dealer who recommends our securities to persons other than prior customers and accredited investors must, prior to the sale, make a special written suitability determination for the purchaser and receive the purchaser’s written agreement to execute the transaction.  Unless an exception is available, the regulations require the delivery, prior to any transaction involving a penny stock, of a disclosure schedule explaining the penny stock market and the risks associated with trading in the penny stock market.  In addition, broker-dealers must disclose commissions payable to both the broker-dealer and the registered representative and current quotations for the securities they offer.  The additional burdens imposed upon broker-dealers by these requirements may discourage broker-dealers from recommending transactions in our securities, which could severely limit the liquidity of our securities and consequently adversely affect the market price for our securities.

We are contractually obligated to issue shares in the future, diluting your interest in us.

As of August 15, 2008, there were approximately 2,430,080 shares of our common stock issuable upon exercise of stock options outstanding, at a weighted average exercise price of $0.63 per share. An additional 3,427,438 shares of our common stock are reserved for issuance under our 2006 Equity Incentive Plan as of August 15, 2008. Also outstanding as of August 15, 2008 are warrants for the issuance of an additional 22,471,577 shares of our common stock, at a weighted average exercise price of $0.17 per share.  Moreover, we expect to issue additional options to purchase shares of our common stock to compensate employees, consultants and directors, and we may issue additional shares to raise capital. Any such issuances will have the effect of further diluting the interest of the holders of our securities.

ITEM 2.   PROPERTIES.

We conduct our domestic operations at two facilities in Gardner, Massachusetts. The main Gardner facility is leased from a corporation owned by an individual who is one of our officers, and who serves on our board of directors. The lease terminated in December 1999 and we are currently a tenant-at-will. We rent the other Gardner facility on a month-to-month basis. We rent office space in Hong Kong for sales, marketing and supplier quality control and liaison activities of our Hong Kong subsidiary.

We believe these facilities are adequate for our current operations and adequately covered by insurance. Significant increases in production or the addition of significant equipment additions or manufacturing capabilities in connection with the production of our line of endoscopes, optical thin films and other products may, however, require the acquisition or lease of additional facilities. We may establish production facilities domestically or overseas to produce key assemblies or components, such as lenses, for our products. Overseas facilities may subject us to the political and economic risks associated with overseas operations. The loss of or inability to establish or maintain such additional domestic or overseas facilities could materially adversely affect our competitive position and profitability.

ITEM 3.   LEGAL PROCEEDINGS.

We may be involved from time to time in ordinary litigation, negotiation and settlement matters that will not have a material effect on our operations or finances. We are not aware of any pending or threatened litigation against us or our officers and directors in their capacity as such that could have a material impact on our operations or finances.

Recent Sales of Unregistered Securities; Use of Proceeds from Registered Securities

On June 25, 2008, we entered into a Purchase Agreement with institutional and other accredited investors pursuant to which we sold an aggregate of $600,000 of 10% Senior Secured Convertible Notes, or Notes, which are convertible into an aggregate of 12,000,000 shares of our common stock, par value $0.01 per share, at a conversion price of $0.05 per share, and warrants to purchase an aggregate of 7,920,000 shares of our common stock at an exercise price of $0.07 per share. The investors are current stockholders of our Company. Interest accrues on the Notes at a rate of 10% per annum and is payable upon the earlier of conversion or maturity of the Notes. The Notes mature on June 25, 2010, and the warrants expire on June 25, 2015. The Notes and warrants are not convertible or exercisable until we implement a reverse stock split, which requires the approval of our stockholders and the effectiveness of an amendment to our Articles of Organization to effect the reverse stock split. The closing of the sale of the Notes and warrants occurred on June 25, 2008.

The Purchase Agreement contains customary representations and warranties made by us and the investors, and the Notes contain customary covenants binding on our Company and customary events of default. If an event of default occurs and is uncured within the allowable grace period, if any, the investors may declare all amounts under the Notes immediately due and payable and may pursue any other available remedies.

The Notes are secured by a pledge of our assets under the terms of a Pledge and Security Agreement and the security documents ancillary thereto.

Table of Contents

Pursuant to a Registration Rights Agreement entered into with the investors on June 25, 2008, we agreed to file a registration statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission by the earlier of (i) two  days following the effectiveness of the amendment to implement a reverse stock split and (ii) December 15, 2008, to register the resale of the common stock issuable upon the conversion of the Notes and the exercise of the warrants, plus the common stock issuable in lieu of cash interest on the Notes. We also agreed to use our commercially reasonable efforts to have the registration statement declared effective as soon as practicable after filing and agreed to take certain other actions related to the effectiveness of the registration statement.

On February 1, 2007, we sold an aggregate of 10,000,000 shares of common stock, par value $0.01 per share, at a price of $0.25 per share and warrants to purchase an aggregate of 10,000,000 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $0.32 per share, which were immediately exercisable, raising gross proceeds of $2,500,000. In conjunction with our issuance of Notes and warrants on June 25, 2008, certain anti-dilution provisions of the existing warrants were triggered. As a result, the number of existing warrants was increased from 10,000,000 to 14,551,577 and the related exercise price was decreased from $0.32 per share to $0.22 per share. All of the following shares of common stock issued were issued in a non-registered transaction:

* Includes shares of common stock and shares underlying outstanding warrants

(a) Mr. Pitlor is one of our directors

The 10,000,000 shares issued on February 1, 2007 and the 10,000,000 shares of common stock issuable upon the exercise of the warrants issued on February 1, 2007 were subsequently registered on a registration statement on a Form SB-2, which was declared effective by the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 23, 2007.

With respect to the issuances of our securities described above, we relied on the Section 4(2) exemption from securities registration under the federal securities laws for transactions not involving any public offering. No advertising or general solicitation was employed in offering the securities. The securities were issued to accredited investors. The securities were offered for investment purposes only and not for the purpose of resale or distribution and the transfer thereof was appropriately restricted by us.

Overview

We have been a developer and manufacturer of advanced optical instruments since 1982.  We design and produce high-quality micro-optics, medical instruments and other advanced optical systems.  Our medical instrumentation line includes laparoscopes, arthroscopes and endocouplers and a world-class product line of 3-D endoscopes for use in minimally invasive surgical procedures.

We are currently developing specialty instruments incorporating our Lenslock TM technology (patent pending) that ensures lower cost, easier reparability and enhanced durability as compared to other design approaches used in the industry.  We are also aggressively pursuing ultra-small instruments, some with lenses less than one millimeter in diameter, utilizing micro-precision TM lens technology (patent pending).

We are certified to the ISO 9001 and ISO 13485 Quality Standards and comply with the FDA Good Manufacturing Practices and the European Union Medical Device Directive for CE marking of our medical products. Our internet website is www.poci.com. Information contained on our website does not constitute part of this annual report.

The areas in which we do business are highly competitive and include both foreign and domestic competitors. Many of our competitors are larger and have substantially greater resources than we do. Furthermore, other domestic or foreign companies, some with greater financial resources than we have, may seek to produce products or services that compete with ours. We routinely outsource specialized production efforts as required, both domestic and offshore, to obtain the most cost effective production. Over the years, we have achieved extensive experience with other optical specialists worldwide.

Since the 1990s we have maintained a Hong Kong subsidiary to support business and quality control activities as required throughout Asia. We believe that the cost savings from such production is essential to our ability to compete on a price basis in the medical products area particularly and to our profitability in general.

We believe that competition for sales of our medical products and services, which have been principally sold to original equipment manufacturer, or OEM, customers, is based on performance and other technical features, as well as other factors, such as scheduling and reliability, in addition to competitive price.

We believe that our future success depends to a large degree on our ability to continue to conceive and to develop new optical products and services to enhance the performance characteristics and methods of manufacture of existing products. Accordingly, we expect to continue to seek to obtain product-related design and development contracts with customers and to invest our own funds on research and development, to the extent funds are available.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

General

Management’s discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations is based upon our consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, referred to as U.S. GAAP. The preparation of these consolidated financial statements requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.

We believe the following critical accounting policies affect our more significant judgments and estimates used in the preparation of our consolidated financial statements.

Revenue Recognition

We recognize revenue in accordance with the Securities and Exchange Commission Staff Accounting Bulletin (“SAB”) No. 104, Revenue Recognition in Financial Statements. SAB No. 104 requires that four basic criteria must be met before revenue can be recognized: (1) persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists; (2) delivery has occurred or services rendered; (3) the price to the buyer is fixed or determinable; and (4) collectability is reasonably assured. Determination of criteria (3) and (4) are based on management’s judgments regarding the fixed nature of the price to the buyer charged for products delivered or services rendered and collectability of the sales price. We assess credit worthiness of customers based upon prior history with the customer and assessment of financial condition. Our shipping terms are customarily Free On Board, or FOB, shipping point.

14

Table of Contents

Bad Debt

We maintain allowances for doubtful accounts for estimated losses resulting from the inability of our customers to make required payments. Allowances for doubtful accounts are established based upon review of specific account balances and historical experience. If the financial condition of our customers were to deteriorate, resulting in an impairment of their ability to make future payments, additional allowances may be required.

Inventories

We provide for estimated obsolescence on unmarketable inventory based upon assumptions about future demand and market conditions. If actual demand and market conditions are less favorable than those projected by management, additional inventory write-downs may be required. Inventory, once written down, is not subsequently written back up, as these adjustments are considered permanent adjustments to the carrying value of the inventory.

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and Long-Lived Assets to be Disposed of

We account for impairment of long-lived assets in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 144, Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets. This statement requires that long-lived assets and certain identifiable intangibles be reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Recoverability of assets to be held and used is measured by a comparison of the carrying amount of an asset to undiscounted future net cash flows expected to be generated by the asset. If such assets are considered to be impaired, the impairment to be recognized is measured by the amount by which the carrying amount of the assets exceeds the fair value of the assets. Assets to be disposed of are reported at the lower of the carrying amount or fair value less estimated costs to sell.

Income Taxes

Income taxes are accounted for under the asset and liability method. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases and operating loss and tax credit carry forwards. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date.

In assessing the likelihood of utilization of existing deferred tax assets, management has considered historical results of operations and the current operating environment.

Stock-Based Compensation

On July 1, 2006, we adopted SFAS No. 123(R), Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation (“SFAS No. 123(R)”), which requires the measurement and recognition of all compensation costs for all stock-based awards made to employees and the Board of Directors based upon fair value over the requisite service period for awards expected to vest. Prior to adoption, we accounted for stock options under the intrinsic value method set in accordance with Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25, “ Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees,” and related interpretations, and provided the required pro forma disclosures prescribed by SFAS No. 123, “ Accounting for Share-based Compensation “ (“SFAS No. 123”), as amended.

SFAS 123(R) requires us to estimate the fair value of share-based awards on the date of grant using an option-pricing model. We adopted SFAS 123(R) using the modified prospective transition method which required the application of the accounting standard starting July 1, 2006, the first day of our fiscal year 2007. Prior period information has not been restated to reflect the fair value method of expensing share-based awards.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 141 (revised 2007), Business Combinations (SFAS No. 141(R)), which replaces SFAS No. 141. SFAS No. 141(R) establishes principles and requirements for how an acquirer in a business combination recognizes and measures in its financial statements the identifiable assets acquired, the liabilities assumed, and any controlling interest; recognizes and measures the goodwill acquired in the business combination or a gain from a bargain purchase; and determines what information to disclose to enable users of the

15

Table of Contents

financial statements to evaluate the nature and financial effects of the business combination. SFAS No. 141(R) is to be applied prospectively to business combinations for which the acquisition date is on or after an entity’s fiscal year that begins after December 15, 2008, or July 1, 2009 for our Company. The impact of this Statement on our financial position, results of operations and cash flows will be dependent on the terms, conditions and details of such acquisitions.

In February 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 159, The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities, which allows us to choose to measure selected financial assets and financial liabilities at fair value. Unrealized gains and losses on items for which the fair value option has been elected are reported in earnings. SFAS No. 159 is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007, or July 1, 2008 for our Company. We are in the process of evaluating the impact of this authoritative guidance on our consolidated financial statements.

In September 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 157, Fair Value Measurements, which provides a single definition of fair value, and requires additional disclosure about the use of fair value to measure assets and liabilities. SFAS No. 157 emphasizes that fair value is a market-based measurement defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. Thus, SFAS No. 157 adheres to a definition of fair value based upon exit price as opposed to entry price, i.e. the price paid to acquire an asset or liability. This pronouncement is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007, or July 1, 2008 for our Company. We are in the process of evaluating the impact of this authoritative guidance on our consolidated financial statements.

Results of Operations for the Fiscal Year Ended June 30, 2008 Compared to the Fiscal Year Ended June 30, 2007

During the latter part of fiscal year 2008, we implemented plans to reduce costs, including workforce reductions, and to streamline operations in an effort to reduce net losses. This has resulted in an increase in gross profit and simultaneous decreases in operating expenses, thereby reducing losses, particularly in the third and fourth quarters of fiscal year 2008. Excluding the effect of the gain on sale of product line in January 2008, operating loss for the quarters ended March 31, 2008 and June 30, 2008 was the lowest of any quarter in the last nine years. We anticipate continuing measures taken to contain costs, and to continue our review of other expense areas to determine where additional reductions in discretionary spending can be achieved.

Total revenues for fiscal year 2008 were $2,902,219, an increase of $424,750, or 17.1%, from fiscal year 2007 revenues of $2,477,469. The revenues for fiscal 2008 represents the highest yearly sales level in seven years and was due principally to shipments to a significant new customer of an advanced surgical visualization system, along with the introduction of a number of other new products. The design of the advanced surgical visualization system relied heavily on our experience with medical optics technologies, specifically in the area of advanced optical endoscopic instrumentation.

Revenues from our largest customers, as a percentage of total revenues, were as follows:

No other customer accounted for more than 10% of our revenues in fiscal years 2008 and 2007.

Gross profit for fiscal year 2008 reflected a favorable change of $316,729, compared to fiscal year 2007. Gross profit as a percentage of revenues increased from 19.2% in fiscal year 2007 to 27.3% in fiscal year 2008. The favorable change in gross profit was due primarily to increased sales volume, increased manufacturing efficiencies and elimination of 2007 start-up costs related to initial production of the advanced surgical visualization system.

Research and development expenses, net were $757,852 for fiscal year 2008 compared to $1,312,240 for fiscal year 2007. The decrease was due primarily to the recent implementation of certain cost containment plans including workforce reductions, deferring certain development initiatives, increased reimbursements from customers for product development activities and focusing on a limited number of products and technologies expected to provide

16

Table of Contents

near term revenues. Research and development expenses were net of reimbursement of related costs of $224,107 and $101,309 during fiscal years 2008 and 2007, respectively.

Selling, general and administrative expenses decreased by $230,866, or 11.0%, during fiscal year 2008 compared to the previous year. The decrease was primarily attributable to the recent implementation of certain cost containment plans including workforce reductions, as mentioned above.

Gain on sale of product line of $210,549 consists of the gain on the sale of our optical thin film product line recognized in the quarter ended March 31, 2008. The purchase price was $250,000, and we will receive a royalty of 25% of revenues exceeding $300,000 annually from the purchased customer list for a three-year period.

Interest income (expense), net decreased by $46,059 during fiscal year 2008 compared to the previous year. The decrease was due to a lower base of cash and cash equivalents, partially offset by higher interest rates, and interest expense recorded on the 10% senior convertible notes issued on June 25, 2008.

The income tax provisions in fiscal years 2008 and 2007 represent the minimum statutory state income tax liability.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

We compete in a highly technical, very competitive, and in most cases, price driven segment of the medical instrument marketplace where products can take years to develop and introduce to distributors and end users. Furthermore, research and development, manufacturing, marketing and distribution activities are strictly regulated by FDA, ISO and other regulatory bodies that, while intended to enhance the ultimate quality and functionality of products produced, can contribute to the significant cost and time needed to maintain existing products and develop and introduce product enhancements and new product innovations.

We have traditionally funded working capital needs through product sales, management of working capital components of our business, and by cash received from public and private offerings of our common stock, warrants to purchase shares of our common stock and convertible notes. We have incurred quarter to quarter operating losses during our efforts to develop current products including endoscopes, image couplers, beamsplitters, thin film coatings, night vision and micro-optic lenses, prisms and assemblies for various applications and utilizing a number of proprietary and patent-pending technologies including Lenslock TM endoscope and micro-precision TM lens technologies. Our management expects that such operating losses will continue through fiscal year 2009 and until sales increase to breakeven and profitable levels. Our management also believes that the opportunities represented by these products have the potential to generate sales increases to achieve breakeven and profitable results.  Excluding the effect of the gain on sale of product line in January 2008, operating loss for the quarters ended March 31, 2008 and June 30, 2008 was the lowest of any quarter in the last nine years.

Our current financial condition may raise doubt among potential equity investors, customers and suppliers regarding our ability to continue as a going concern, as referenced by the Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm on our financial statements for the year ended June 30, 2008, included in this annual report on Form 10-K.  We may not be able to obtain working capital funds necessary in the time frame needed and at satisfactory terms to correct the going concern issue.

As of June 30, 2008, cash and cash equivalents were $885,988, accounts receivable were $387,224 and current liabilities were $869,235, resulting in a net liquid asset amount of $403,977. We believe that the introduction of several new products during the last four fiscal years, along with new and on-going customer relationships, will continue to generate additional revenues, which are required in order for us to achieve profitability. If these additional revenues are not achieved on a timely basis, we will be required and are prepared to implement further cost reduction measures, as necessary.

Capital equipment expenditures during the fiscal year 2008 were $58,718, down from $139,667 for fiscal year 2007. Future capital equipment expenditures will be dependent upon future sales and success of on-going research and development efforts.

Contractual cash commitments for the fiscal years subsequent to June 30, 2008 are summarized as follows:

17

Table of Contents

We have contractual cash commitments related to open purchase orders for fiscal year 2009 of approximately $112,000.

In February 2007, we completed a private placement, pursuant to which we sold an aggregate of 10,000,000 shares of common stock and warrants to purchase an aggregate of 10,000,000 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $0.32 per share.  Our net cash proceeds, after offering costs of $123,784, were $2,376,216.  In June 2008, we issued senior secured convertible notes and warrants, raising cash proceeds of $600,000.

Trends and Uncertainties That May Affect Future Results

Fiscal year 2008 revenues were the highest in seven years. This was due in large part to shipments of the advanced surgical visualization system discussed above, the design of which relies heavily on our world class medical optics technologies, specifically in the area of advanced optical endoscopic instrumentation. This product accounted for approximately one quarter of our total revenues for fiscal year 2008. We expect our recent pattern of quarter-to-quarter revenue fluctuations to continue, due to the introductory stage of many of our products and the uncertain timing of orders from customers and their size in relation to total revenues. We continue to move forward with new products and technical innovations, in particular:

·                 a new generation of endoscopes that incorporate Lenslock TM technology (patent pending);

·                 new components and instruments utilizing our new micro-precision TM lens technology (patent pending) for optical components and endoscopes under 1 mm;

·                 new custom medical products; and

·                 new night vision lenses.

Over the past few years new product and technology development has undergone significant changes in shifting the emphasis of research and development efforts from the development of underlying technologies to market exploitation in the applications of these new technologies. These have already been realized to some degree in a number of areas. Over the past two to three years these developments have produced revenues from new micro-precision TM lens products and new Lenslock TM endoscopes. Recent initiatives in the area of micro-precision TM lenses address specific customer opportunities in different medical specialty applications. In endoscope technologies we continue new product offerings in our Lenslock TM product line. Since December 2005, over 400 ENT endoscopes with diameter of 2.7 mm that incorporate Lenslock TM technology have been shipped. We recently completed prototypes of our 4 mm Lenslock TM sinuscope, and 5 mm Lenslock TM laproscope, and are actively pursuing development of our new 4 mm Lenslock TM wide field arthroscope. We believe that Lenslock TM technology has advantages over competitive products due to ease of manufacture and repair, superior image quality, significant cost effectiveness and quality of repair and that further incorporating this into our endoscope product line will lead to increased sales.

Going forward, our expectations are aimed at applied development for revenue bearing products. An example beyond the new instruments mentioned above includes the lenses we developed for a new color Night Vision system that we are beginning to manufacture in pre-production quantities

Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, requiring companies to report on the effectiveness of our internal controls over financial reporting, first applied to our annual report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2008. We expect our operating expense may increase as a result of the costs associated with the implementation of and maintaining compliance with Section 404.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

To the Board of Directors and Shareholders of

Precision Optics Corporation, Inc.:

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Precision Optics Corporation, Inc. and subsidiaries (the Company) as of June 30, 2008 and the related consolidated statements of operations, stockholders’ equity and cash flows for the year then ended. These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on our audits.

We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal controls over financial reporting. An audit includes consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of Precision Optics Corporation, Inc. and subsidiaries as of June 30, 2008  and the results of their operations and their cash flows for the year then ended in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 1 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company has suffered recurring net losses and negative cash flows from operations, which raises substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. Management’s plans concerning these matters are described in Note 1. The accompanying consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

(1) SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

(a)     Nature of Business and Liquidity

Precision Optics Corporation, Inc. (the “Company”) designs, develops, manufactures and sells specialized optical systems and components and optical thin-film coatings. The Company conducts business in one industry segment only and its customers are primarily domestic. The Company’s products and services fall into two principal areas: (i) medical products for use by hospitals and physicians and (ii) advanced optical system design and development services and products used by industrial customers.

The Company has sustained recurring net losses and negative cash flows from operations for several years. During the year ended June 30, 2008, the Company incurred a net loss of $1,623,354 and used cash in operations of $696,868. As of June 30, 2008, cash and cash equivalents were $885,988, accounts receivable were $387,224 and current liabilities were $869,235, resulting in a net liquid asset amount of $403,977.  These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.  The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business.  The financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts or the amounts and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.  During the latter part of fiscal year 2008, the Company implemented plans to reduce costs and to streamline operations in an effort to reduce net losses.  This has resulted in an increase in gross profit and simultaneous decreases in operating expenses, thereby reducing losses substantially, particularly in the third and fourth quarters of fiscal year 2008.  The Company believes that the recent introduction of several new products, along with new and on-going customer relationships, will generate additional revenues, which are required in order for the Company to achieve profitability. If these additional revenues are not achieved on a timely basis, the Company will be required and is prepared to implement further cost reduction measures, as necessary.

The Company has incurred quarter to quarter operating losses during its recent efforts to develop current products including endoscopes, image couplers, beamsplitters, thin film coatings, night vision and micro-optic lenses, prisms and assemblies for various applications and utilizing a number of proprietary and patent-pending technologies including Lenslock ^TM endoscope and micro-precision ^TM lens technologies. Management expects that such operating losses will continue through fiscal year 2009, and until sales increase to breakeven and profitable levels. Management also believes that the opportunities represented by these products have the potential to generate sales increases to achieve breakeven and profitable results. The Company will continue its review of other expense areas to determine where additional reductions in discretionary spending can be achieved. There can be no assurance that the Company’s operating plans will be successful, and if so required, that the Company will be successful in obtaining the capital necessary to continue ongoing operations.

In April 2006 the Company completed a private placement, issuing 8,450,000 shares of common stock. Net cash proceeds to the Company (after offering costs of $49,725) were $2,062,775. In February 2007 the Company completed a private placement, pursuant to which it sold an aggregate of 10,000,000 shares of common stock and warrants to purchase an aggregate of 10,000,000 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $0.32 per share. Net cash proceeds to the Company (after offering costs of $123,784) were $2,376,216 (see Note 4). In June 2008 the Company issued senior secured convertible notes and warrants, raising cash proceeds of $600,000.

During the past year, the introduction of several new products, along with new and on-going customer relationships, has resulted in significant revenue growth. The Company believes that with continued promotion, these opportunities have the potential to continue the general trend of increasing revenues, which, along with enhanced operations are required in order for the Company to achieve profitability.

(b)     Principles of Consolidation

The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its two wholly owned subsidiaries. All inter-company accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

(c)     Revenues

The Company recognized revenue in accordance with Securities and Exchange Commission issued Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 104, Revenue Recognition (“SAB No. 104”) which requires that four basic criteria must be met before revenue can be recognized: (1) persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists; (2) delivery has occurred or services rendered; (3) the price to the buyer is fixed and determinable; and (4) collectability is reasonably assured. The Company’s shipping terms are customarily FOB shipping point. The Company’s revenue recognition practices comply with the guidance in the bulletin.

The sales price of products and services sold is fixed and determinable after receipt and acceptance of a customer’s purchase order or properly executed sales contract, typically before any work is performed. Management reviews each customer purchase order or sales contract to determine that the work to be performed is specified and there are no unusual terms and conditions that would raise questions as to whether the sales price is fixed or determinable. The Company assesses credit worthiness of customers based upon prior history with the customer and assessment of financial condition. Accounts receivable are stated at the amount management expects to collect from outstanding balances. An allowance for doubtful accounts is provided for that portion of accounts receivable considered to be uncollectible, based upon historical experience and management’s evaluation of outstanding accounts receivable at the end of the year. Bad debts are written off against the allowance when identified.

The Company’s revenue transactions typically do not contain multiple deliverable elements for future performance obligations to customers, other than a standard one-year warranty on materials and workmanship, the estimated costs for which are provided for at the time revenue is recognized.

Revenues for industrial and medical products sold in the normal course of business are recognized upon shipment when delivery terms are FOB shipping point and all other revenue recognition criteria have been met. Gross shipping charges reimbursable from customers, to deliver product, are insignificant and are included in Revenues, while shipping costs are classified as the Selling, General and Administrative Expenses section of the Consolidated Statement of Operations.

(d)     Cash and Cash Equivalents

The Company includes in cash equivalents all highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less at the time of acquisition. Cash and cash equivalents of $885,988 and $840,179 at June 30, 2008 and 2007, respectively, consist primarily of cash at banks and money market funds. The Company maintains its cash and cash equivalents in bank deposit accounts that, at times, may exceed federally insured limits. The Company has not experienced any losses in such accounts. The Company believes it is not exposed to any significant credit risk on cash and cash equivalents.

(e)     Inventories

Inventories are stated at the lower of cost (first-in, first-out) or market and include material, labor and manufacturing overhead. The components of inventories at June 30, 2008 and 2007 are as follows:

The Company provides for estimated obsolescence on unmarketable inventory based upon assumptions about future demand and market conditions. If actual demand and market conditions are less favorable than those projected by management, additional inventory write-downs may be required. Inventory, once written down, is not subsequently written back up, as these adjustments are considered permanent adjustments to the carrying value of the inventory.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

During fiscal years 2008 and 2007, the Company recorded pre-tax non-cash provisions for slow-moving and obsolete inventories of approximately $39,000 and $31,100, respectively.

(f)    Property and Equipment

Property and equipment are recorded at cost. Maintenance and repair items are expensed as incurred. The Company provides for depreciation and amortization by charges to operations, using the straight-line and declining-balance methods, which allocate the cost of property and equipment over the following estimated useful lives:

Amortization of assets under capital leases is included in depreciation expense. Depreciation expense was $53,720 and $57,911 for the years ended June 30, 2008 and 2007, respectively.

(g)     Significant Customers and Concentration of Credit Risk

Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 105, Disclosure of Information about Financial Instruments with Off-Balance-Sheet Risk and Financial Instruments with Concentrations of Credit Risk, requires disclosure of any significant off-balance sheet and credit risk.

Financial instruments that subject the Company to credit risk consist primarily of cash equivalents and trade accounts receivable. The Company places its investments with highly rated financial institutions. The Company has not experienced any losses on these investments to date. At June 30, 2008, receivables from the Company’s largest customers were 27%, 25% and 17% of the total accounts receivable. At June 30, 2007, receivables from the Company’s largest customer were 61% of the total accounts receivable. No other customer accounted for more than 10% of the Company’s receivables as of June 30, 2008 and 2007. The Company has not experienced any material losses related to accounts receivable from individual customers. The Company generally does not require collateral or other security as a condition of sale rather relying on credit approval, balance limitation and monitoring procedures to control credit risk of trade account financial instruments. Management believes that allowances for doubtful accounts, which are established based upon review of specific account balances and historical experience, are adequate.

Revenues from the Company’s largest customers, as a percentage of total revenues, were as follows:

No other customer accounted for more than 10% of the Company’s revenues in fiscal years 2008 and 2007.

(h)     Loss per Share

The Company calculates earnings per share according to SFAS No. 128, Earnings per Share. Basic loss per share is computed by dividing net loss by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. For each of the two years in the periods ended June 30, 2008 and 2007, the effect of stock options was anti-dilutive; therefore, they were not included in the computation of diluted loss per share. The number of shares issuable upon the exercise of outstanding stock options and warrants that were excluded from the computation, as their effect would be anti-dilutive, was 24,901,657 and 12,532,583 during fiscal 2008 and 2007, respectively.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

(i)     Stock-Based Compensation

On July 1, 2006, the Company adopted SFAS No. 123(R), Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation (“SFAS No. 123(R)”), which requires the measurement and recognition of all compensation costs for all stock based awards made to employees and the Board of Directors based upon fair value over the requisite service period for awards expected to vest. Prior to adoption, the Company accounted for stock options under the intrinsic value method set in accordance with Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25, “Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees,” and related interpretations, and provided the required pro forma disclosures prescribed by SFAS No. 123, “ Accounting for Share-based Compensation “ (“SFAS No. 123”), as amended.

SFAS 123(R) requires the Company to estimate the fair value of share-based awards on the date of grant using an option-pricing model. The Company adopted SFAS 123(R) using the modified prospective transition method which required the application of the accounting standard starting July 1, 2006, the first day of the Company’s fiscal year 2007. Prior period information has not been restated to reflect the fair value method of expensing share-based awards. Stock-based compensation costs recognized for the year ended June 30, 2008 and 2007 amounted to $108,242 and $190,926, respectively.

(j)     Foreign Currency Translation

The Company translates certain accounts and financial statements of its foreign subsidiary in accordance with SFAS No. 52, Foreign Currency Translation. The functional currency of the Company’s foreign subsidiary is the United States dollar. Transaction gains or losses are reflected in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations and have not been significant.

(k)     Patents

Patents are carried at cost, less accumulated amortization of $623,063 and $515,615 at June 30, 2008 and 2007, respectively. Such costs are amortized using the straight-line method over the shorter of their legal or estimated useful lives, generally five to ten years. Amortization expense was $107,448 and $62,493 for the years ended June 30, 2008 and 2007, respectively. Amortization expense is expected to be approximately $30,000, $28,000, $27,000, $26,000 and $25,000, respectively, for the years ending June 30, 2009 through June 30, 2013.

(l)     Financial Instruments

SFAS No. 107, Disclosure About Fair Value of Financial Instruments, requires disclosures about the fair value of financial instruments. Financial instruments consist principally of cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable, and accrued expenses. The estimated fair value of these financial instruments approximates their carrying value due to the short-term nature of these financial instruments.

(m)     Long-Lived Assets

The Company accounts for long-lived assets in accordance with SFAS No. 144, Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets. This statement requires that long-lived assets and certain identifiable intangibles be reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Recoverability of assets to be held and used is measured by a comparison of the carrying amount of an asset to future undiscounted net cash flows expected to be generated by the asset. If such assets are considered to be impaired, the impairment to be recognized is measured by the amount by which the carrying amount of the assets exceeds the fair value of the assets. Assets to be disposed of are reported at the lower of the carrying amount or fair value less costs to sell.

(n)     Warranty Costs

The Company does not incur future performance obligations in the normal course of business other than providing a standard one-year warranty on materials and workmanship to its customers. The Company provides for estimated warranty costs at the time product revenue is recognized. Warranty costs have been included as a component of cost of goods sold in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations. The following tables summarize warranty reserve activity for the two years ended June 30, 2008:

(o)     Research and Development

Research and development expenses are charged to operations as incurred. The Company groups development and prototype costs and related reimbursements in research and development. For the years ended June 30, 2008 and 2007, research and development expense is shown net of reimbursements of $224,107 and $101,309, respectively, in the accompanying statements of operations.

(p)     Comprehensive Income

SFAS No. 130, Reporting Comprehensive Income, requires disclosure of all components of comprehensive income on an annual and interim basis. Comprehensive income is defined as the change in equity of a business enterprise during a period from transactions and other events and circumstances from non-owners sources.

The Company’s comprehensive loss for the years ended June 30, 2008 and 2007 was equal to its net loss for the same periods.

(q)       Income Taxes

Income taxes are accounted for under the asset and liability method. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases and operating loss and tax credit carry-forwards. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date.

In assessing the likelihood of utilization of existing deferred tax assets, management has considered historical results of operations and the current operating environment.

(r)     Segment Reporting

SFAS No. 131, Disclosures About Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information, establishes standards for reporting information regarding operating segments in annual financial statements and requires selected information for those segments to be presented in interim financial reports issued to stockholders. SFAS No. 131 also establishes standards for related disclosures about products and services and geographic areas. Operating segments are identified as components of an enterprise about which separate discrete financial information is available for evaluation by the chief operating decision maker, or decision-making group, in making decisions about how to allocate resources and assess performance. The Company’s chief decision-maker, as defined under SFAS No. 131, is the Chief Executive Officer. To date, the Company has viewed its operations and manages its business as principally one segment. For all periods presented, over 90% of the Company’s sales have been to customers in the United States.

(s)     Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting standards generally accepted in the United States requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

(t)        Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 141 (revised 2007), Business Combinations (SFAS No. 141(R)), which replaces SFAS No. 141. SFAS No. 141(R) establishes principles and requirements for how an acquirer in a business combination recognizes and measures in its financial statements the identifiable assets acquired, the liabilities assumed, and any controlling interest; recognizes and measures the goodwill acquired in the business combination or a gain from a bargain purchase; and determines what information to disclose to enable users of the financial statements to evaluate the nature and financial effects of the business combination. SFAS No. 141(R) is to be applied prospectively to business combinations for which the acquisition date is on or after an entity’s fiscal year that begins after December 15, 2008 (July 1, 2009 for the Company). The impact of this Statement on the Company’s financial position, results of operations and cash flows will be dependent on the terms, conditions and details of such acquisitions.

In February 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 159, The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities, which allows the Company to choose to measure selected financial assets and financial liabilities at fair value. Unrealized gains and losses on items for which the fair value option has been elected are reported in earnings. SFAS No. 159 is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007 (July 1, 2008 for the Company). The Company is in the process of evaluating the impact of this authoritative guidance on its consolidated financial statements.

In September 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 157, Fair Value Measurements, which provides a single definition of fair value, and requires additional disclosure about the use of fair value to measure assets and liabilities. SFAS No. 157 emphasizes that fair value is a market-based measurement defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. Thus, SFAS No. 157 adheres to a definition of fair value based upon exit price as opposed to entry price (i.e. the price paid to acquire an asset or liability). This pronouncement is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007 (July 1, 2008 for the Company). The Company is in the process of evaluating the impact of this authoritative guidance on its consolidated financial statements.

 (2)   10% SENIOR SECURED CONVERTIBLE NOTES

On June 25, 2008, the Company entered into a Purchase Agreement with institutional and other accredited investors pursuant to which it sold an aggregate of $600,000 of 10% Senior Secured Convertible Notes, which are convertible into an aggregate of 12,000,000 shares of common stock, par value $0.01 per share, at a conversion price of $0.05 per share, and warrants to purchase an aggregate of 7,920,000 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $0.07 per share. The Investors are current stockholders of the Company. Interest accrues on the Notes at a rate of 10% per annum and is payable upon the earlier of conversion or maturity of the Notes. The Notes mature on June 25, 2010, and the Warrants expire on June 25, 2015. The Notes and Warrants are not convertible or exercisable until the Company implements a reverse stock split, which requires the approval of its stockholders and the effectiveness of an amendment (the “Amendment”) to its Articles of Organization to effect the reverse stock split. The closing of the sale of the Notes and Warrants occurred on June 25, 2008.

The Purchase Agreement contains customary representations and warranties of the Company and the Investors, and the Notes contain customary covenants binding on the Company and customary events of default. If an event of default occurs and is uncured within the allowable grace period, if any, the Investors may declare all amounts under the Notes immediately due and payable and may pursue any other available remedies.

The Notes are secured by a pledge of the Company’s assets under the terms of a Pledge and Security Agreement and the security documents ancillary thereto.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

Pursuant to a Registration Rights Agreement entered into with the Investors on June 25, 2008, the Company has agreed to file a registration statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission by the earlier of (i) two days following the effectiveness of the Amendment and (ii) December 15, 2008, to register the resale of the common stock issuable upon the conversion of the Notes and the exercise of the Warrants, plus the common stock issuable in lieu of cash interest on the Notes. The Company has also agreed to use its commercially reasonable efforts to have the registration statement declared effective as soon as practicable after filing and has agreed to take certain other actions related to the effectiveness of the registration statement.

The 10% senior secured convertible notes consist of the following:

Upon issuance of the Notes and Warrants, the proceeds of $600,000 were allocated between the Notes and  Warrants based on relative fair values. The value of the Warrants was recorded as a discount to the Notes, with a corresponding increase to additional paid-in capital.The fair value of the Warrants was determined using the Black-Scholes method, with the following assumptions:

In accordance with EITF 00-27, Application of EITF Issue No. 98-5, “Accounting for Convertible Securities with Beneficial Conversion Features or Contingently Adjustable Conversion Ratios,” the proceeds from the issuance of the 10% senior secured convertible notes were first allocated between the Notes and the Warrants. The value of the  conversion feature was then calculated, which resulted in an effective conversion ratio that was less than the market price of the Company’s common stock. The intrinsic value of this beneficial conversion feature was recorded as a further discount to the Notes, equal to the difference between the effective conversion ratio and the market price of the Company’s common stock, with a corresponding increase to additional paid-in capital.

The following summarizes the discount on 10% senior secured convertible notes as of June 30:

(3)   COMMITMENTS

(a)   Related Party Transactions

The Company leases one of its facilities from a corporation owned by an officer-director-shareholder of the Company. The Company is currently a tenant-at-will, paying rent of $9,000 per month. Total rent expense paid to related parties was $108,000 in each of fiscal years 2008 and 2007, and is included in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations.

The Company paid or accrued fees to a director of $60,000 in each of fiscal years 2008 and 2007 for consulting services.

Another director is a former partner in a law firm that has performed legal services for the Company during fiscal 2008 and 2007 totaling approximately $151,000 and $217,000, respectively. This director retired from his position as a member of the Board of Directors of the Company, effective at the close of business on June 28, 2007.

 (b)     Operating Lease Commitments

The Company has entered into operating leases for its office space and equipment that expire at various dates through fiscal year 2009. Total future minimum rental payments under all non-cancelable operating leases are approximately $33,800 in fiscal 2009 and $7,500 thereafter.

Rent expense on operating leases, excluding the related party rent described above, was approximately $46,900 and $47,500 for the years ended June 30, 2008 and 2007, respectively.

(4)   STOCKHOLDERS’ EQUITY

(a)       Stock Options

Stock-based compensation costs recognized for the year ended June 30, 2008 and 2007, included compensation costs for awards granted prior to, but not yet vested as of July 1, 2006 (adoption date), as well as any new grants issued after July 1, 2006. Total costs recognized during the year ended June 30, 2008 and 2007 amounted to $108,242 and $190,926, respectively, and were included in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations in: (1) selling, general and administrative expenses (2008 - $83,161; 2007 - $164,831), cost of goods sold (2008 - $18,635; 2007 - $19,435), and research and development expenses, net (2008 - $6,446; 2007 - $6,660). No compensation has been capitalized because such amounts would have been immaterial. There was no net income tax benefit recognized related to such compensation for the years ended June 30, 2008 or 2007, as the Company is currently in a loss position. The total amount of options granted during the year ended June 30, 2008 was 30,000.
