PLANET TECHNOLOGIES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARY
NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
1. Basis of Presentation
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of Planet Technologies, Inc.
and subsidiary (Planet or the Company) have been prepared in accordance with the interim
reporting requirements of Form 10-QSB, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and
Exchange Commission. The December 31, 2006 balance sheet has been derived from audited
consolidated financial statements at that date. However, the financial statements do not include
all of the information and notes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United
States for complete financial statements.
In managements opinion, all adjustments (consisting of only normal recurring adjustments)
considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Operating results for the three
months ended March 31, 2007, are not necessarily indicative of results that may be expected for the
year ending December 31, 2007. For additional information, refer to the Companys consolidated
financial statements and notes thereto for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2006 included in the
Companys most recent Annual Report on Form 10-KSB.
2. Going Concern
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming
that the Company will continue as a going concern. This basis of accounting contemplates the
recovery of the Companys assets and the satisfaction of its liabilities in the normal course of
business. Successful transition to profitable operations is dependent upon attaining a level of
sales adequate to support the Companys cost structure. The Company has suffered recurring losses
resulting in an accumulated deficit of $6,629,559 as of March 31, 2007. Management intends to
finance operations primarily through cash flow from operations and
from debt and/or equity offerings.
However, there can be no assurance that the Company will be able to obtain such financing or
internally generate cash flows from operations, which may impact the Companys ability to continue
as a going concern. The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements do not
include any adjustments to reflect the possible future effects on the recoverability and
classification of assets or on the amounts and classification of liabilities that may result from
the potential inability of the Company to continue as a going concern.
3. Accounting Policies
Revenue Recognition
The Company recognizes revenue in accordance with SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 101, Revenue
Recognition in Financial Statements (SAB No. 101) as amended by SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin
No. 104, Revenue Recognition, revised and updated (SAB No. 104), which stipulates that revenue
generally is realized or realizable and earned, once persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists,
delivery has occurred or services have been rendered, the fee is fixed or determinable and
collectibility is reasonably assured. The Company recognizes revenue from product sales upon
shipment of goods. In addition, a provision for potential warranty claims is provided for at the
time of sale, based upon warranty terms and the Companys prior experience.
Warranty Reserve
The Company accrues an estimate of its exposure to warranty claims based on both current and
historical product sales data and warranty costs incurred. The air filters produced and sold by the
Company carry a ten-year warranty. Additionally, the Company has warranties on its encasing
products which vary from five years to lifetime. The warranty policies for the encasings have
varied over the years and the reserve reflects coverage for sales from 1993 through the current
period. The Company assesses the adequacy of its recorded warranty liability quarterly and adjusts
the amount as necessary. The warranty accrual included in accrued expenses in the accompanying
condensed consolidated balance sheet. As of March 31, 2007, the warranty accrual was $289,108. The
majority of the warranty accrual relates to products that were sold by ACP prior to the acquisition
in August 2005.

Income Tax
In June 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued FASB Interpretation 48,
Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes (as amended) an interpretation of Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards 109 (FIN 48). FIN 48 clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in
income taxes recognized in an enterprises financial statements in accordance with SFAS 109,
Accounting for Income Taxes, and prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement attribute for
the financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken
in a tax return. FIN 48 also provides guidance on derecognition, classification, interest and
penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosure and transition. FIN 48 is effective for
fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2006. The adoption of FIN 48 did not have a significant
effect on the Companys unaudited consolidated financial statements.
Loss Per Share
Net loss per share is computed using the weighted average number of shares of common stock
outstanding and is presented for basic and diluted loss per share. Basic loss per share is
computed by dividing net loss by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the
period.
The Company has excluded all outstanding stock options and warrants
from the calculation of diluted loss per share because all such securities are considered
anti-dilutive. Accordingly, diluted loss per share equals basic loss per share. The total number
of potential common shares excluded from the calculation of diluted loss per share for the three
months ended March 31, 2007 and 2006 was 569,613 and 394,434, respectively.
4. Stock-Based Compensation
In 2000, the Company established a stock option plan, the 2000 Stock Option Plan (Plan), which
provided for 500,000 shares of common stock for issuance. At the time of the merger with Allergy
Free in 2004, the Plan was amended to increase the number of shares available to 5,000,000 shares,
which were converted to 100,000 shares after the 50:1 stock split. During 2005, the Plan was again
amended to increase the number of shares available under the Plan to 350,000. In 2006, the
Shareholders approved an increase in the number of shares available under the Plan to 2,000,000.
The Plan provides for the discretionary grant of options, stock appreciation rights (SARs), and
stock bonuses to employees and directors of and consultants to the Company. Options granted under
the Plan may be either incentive stock options, as defined in Section 422 of the IRS Code of
1986, as amended, or non-statutory stock options.
Under the Plan, the terms of stock options granted are determined by the Board of Directors.
Stock options may be granted for periods of up to ten years at a price per share not less than the
fair market value of the Companys common stock at the date of grant for incentive stock options
and not less than 85% of the fair market value of the Companys common stock at the date of grant
for non-statutory stock options. In the case of stock options granted to employees, directors or
consultants who, at the time of grant of such options, own more than 10% of the voting power of all
classes of stock of the Company, the exercise price shall be no less

NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
4. Stock-Based Compensation (concluded)
than 110% of the fair market value of the Companys common stock at the date of grant.
Additionally, the term of stock option grants is limited to five years if the grantee owns in
excess of 10% of the voting power of all classes of stock of the Company at the time of grant. The
vesting provisions of individual options may vary but in each case will provide for vesting of at
least 20% per year of the total number of shares subject to the option.
Effective January 1, 2006, the Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123R
(SFAS No. 123R), Share-Based Payment using the modified-prospective transition method. Under
this transition method, compensation cost recognized in the first quarter of 2006 includes (a)
compensation cost for all stock options granted prior to, but not yet vested as of December 31,
2005, based on the grant date fair value estimated in accordance with the original provisions of
SFAS No. 123, and (b) compensation cost for all stock options granted on or subsequent to January
1, 2006, based on the grant date fair value estimated in accordance with the provisions of SFAS No.
123R. During the quarters ended March 31, 2007 and 2006, the Company recognized stock-based
compensation expense of $68,706, or $.02 per share and $55,044, or $.01 per share, respectively.
The above stock-based compensation cost was determined under the fair value based method and was
calculated using the Black-Scholes option valuation model. The Black-Scholes option valuation
model was developed for use in estimating the fair value of traded options, which have no vesting
restrictions, are fully transferable, and do not include a discount for large block trades. In
addition, option valuation models require the input of highly subjective assumptions including the
expected stock price volatility, expected life of the option and other estimates. Because the
Companys employee stock options have characteristics significantly different from those of traded
options, and because changes in the subjective input assumptions can materially affect the fair
value estimate, in managements opinion, the existing models do not necessarily provide a reliable
single measure of the fair value of its employee stock options. Management believes that there
will be no forfeitures and expects the options to be held until their expiration date based on the
fact that they are primarily held by board members. This will be evaluated on a continuing basis.
The table below summarizes stock option activity pursuant to our plan for the three months ended
March 31, 2007:

At March 31, 2007, future compensation expense related to the unvested portion of stock options
outstanding totaled $501,366, which will be amortized on a straight-line basis over the remaining
vesting period through December 31, 2010. In accordance with the provisions of SFAS No. 123R, all
other issuances of common stock, warrants, stock options or other equity instruments to
non-employees as the consideration for goods or services received by the Company are accounted for
based on the fair value of the equity instruments issued (unless the fair value of the
consideration received can be more reliably measured). Generally, the fair value of any options,
warrants or similar equity investments will be estimated based on the Black-Scholes option-pricing
model and adjusted at the end of each reporting period. There was no
stock option activity for the three months ended March 31, 2006.

PART 1 FINANCIAL INFORMATION
Item 2 Managements Discussion and Analysis or Plan of Operation
Planet Technologies, Inc. and Subsidiary
Except for the historical information contained herein, the discussion in this report contains
forward-looking statements that involve certain risks and uncertainties. The Companys actual
results could differ materially from those discussed in this report. Factors that could cause or
contribute to such differences include, but are not limited to those discussed below and in the
Companys Form 10-KSB for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2006.
OVERVIEW
Planet Technologies, Inc. (Planet or the Company) formerly known as Planet Polymer
Technologies, Inc. (Planet Polymer) was incorporated in August, 1991, in the State of California.
On November 30, 2004, the Company acquired Allergy Free, LLC, and on August 11, 2005 the company
acquired Allergy Control Products, Inc. (ACP). The Company is engaged in the business of
designing, manufacturing, selling and distributing common products for use by allergy sensitive
persons, including, without limitation, bedding, air filters, room air cleaners, and related
allergen avoidance products. The business strategy is primarily based upon promotion of products
through physician referrals and directly to the consumer through catalogs and web based
initiatives.
Planets core business strategy is to supply a complete range of high quality products to
physicians patients who are allergy sufferers, as well as to previous customers. Promotion is
executed through (a) distribution of catalogs to physicians offices, for subsequent
re-distribution to patients, (b) distribution of catalogs directly to previous customers and (c)
selective e-commerce marketing initiatives. Customer transactions are primarily handled through
ACPs in-bound call center and its website. In addition to this core business strategy, ACP also
sells selective products on a wholesale basis to domestic retailers as well as to international
distributors.
Products include ACPs own Allergy Control® branded bedding products, which are effective barriers
to the transmission of dust mite allergen and pet dander. ACP also markets other bedding products,
carpet cleaning and laundry products, vacuums, air cleaners and air filters, sinus and breathing
aids, respiratory products, dehumidifiers, mold prevention and house cleaning products, pet allergy
products and certain allergy-related skin and hair care products.
Market distribution channels (non-wholesale) for allergen avoidance products include:
physician-directed sales, direct to consumer sales, the Internet and retail. In the
physician-directed sales segment, ACPs primary competitors are National Allergy Supply, Asthma and
Allergies Technology, Allergy Solutions and Mission Allergy.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Three months ended March 31, 2007 compared to three months ended March 31, 2006
The net loss for the three months ended March 31, 2007 was $216,426 compared to a net loss of
$337,596 for the three-month period ended March 31, 2006. The Companys sales decreased by
$241,685 to $2,076,143 for the three months ended March 31, 2007 from $2,317,828 for the same
period in 2006. This decrease was due primarily to the elimination of the dedicated outbound call
center in 2006, which management had determined was not generating profits for the Company.
Gross profit decreased to $876,134 for the three months ended March 31, 2007 from $931,897 for the
same period in 2006, reflecting the decrease in revenues. Overall gross profit, as a percentage of
sales, increased period over period to 42% for the three months ended March 31, 2007 from 40% for
the same period in 2006. In 2006, the Company reevaluated its source for domestically manufactured
encasings and determined that they could achieve better margins by purchasing the encasings as
finished goods from another source. This change
10
PART 1 FINANCIAL INFORMATION
Item 2 Managements Discussion and Analysis or Plan of Operation
Planet Technologies, Inc. and Subsidiary
has resulted in an increase in gross margins for the first quarter of 2007. In addition, inventory
levels have decreased due to the reduction of carrying raw materials for use by contract sewers.
Operating expenses decreased period over period totaling $1,098,869 for the three months ended
March 31, 2007 and $1,264,100 for the same period in 2006. This $165,231 decrease is primarily due
to staff reductions which resulted in lower compensation expense for the period.
Other expenses/income increased $11,701 to income of $6,308 for the three months ended March 31,
2007 from an expense of $5,393 for the same period in 2006. Of this increase, approximately
$15,000 was due to the addition of advertising revenue in the current year. This increase was
offset by an increase in interest expense for new loans of approximately $7,000.
Off Balance Sheet Arrangements
None.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming
that the Company will continue as a going concern. This basis of accounting contemplates the
recovery of the Companys assets and the satisfaction of its liabilities in the normal course of
business. Successful transition to profitable operations is dependent upon attaining a level of
sales adequate to support the Companys cost structure. The Company has suffered recurring losses
resulting in an accumulated deficit of $6,629,559 as of March 31, 2007. Management intends to
finance operations primarily through cash flow from operations and from debt and equity offerings.
However, there can be no assurance that the Company will be able to obtain such financing or
internally generate cash flows from operations, which may impact the Companys ability to continue
as a going concern. The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements do not
include any adjustments to reflect the possible future effects on the recoverability and
classification of assets or the amounts and classification of liabilities that may result from the
potential inability of the Company to continue as a going concern.
Cash and cash equivalents totaled $333,664 at March 31, 2007. During the period, the Companys
operations provided cash totaling $171,504. The positive cash flow was primarily generated by the
significant decrease in inventory levels as well as reduction of receivables combined with a lower
net loss. The Company will continue to focus on these areas for the balance of the year in an
effort to further improve its operational cash flows. In addition, the Company has started
initiatives related to catalog sales and shipments in an effort to further improve its operating
cash flows.
Inventory levels decreased $184,157 to $302,652 at March 31, 2007 from $486,809 at December 31,
2006, reflecting the Companys continued focus on reducing finished goods to improve inventory
turns and the elimination of raw materials used in domestic contract manufacturing. Other current
assets increased $72,798 to $159,607 at March 31, 2007 from $86,809 at December 31, 2006,
reflecting higher catalog levels which are normal for this time of year. Accounts payable and
accrued expenses increased by $95,298 to $1,342,983 at March 31, 2007 from $1,247,685 at December
31, 2006, reflecting liabilities associated with catalog purchases.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In June 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued FASB Interpretation 48,
Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes (as amended) an interpretation of Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards 109 (FIN 48). FIN 48 clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in
income taxes
11
PART 1 FINANCIAL INFORMATION
Item 2 Managements Discussion and Analysis or Plan of Operation
Planet Technologies, Inc. and Subsidiary
recognized in an enterprises financial statements in accordance with SFAS 109, Accounting for
Income Taxes, and prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement attribute for the financial
statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax
return. FIN 48 also provides guidance on derecognition, classification, interest and penalties,
accounting in interim periods, disclosure and transition. FIN 48 is effective for fiscal years
beginning after December 15, 2006. The adoption of FIN 48 did not have a significant effect on the
Companys unaudited consolidated financial statements.
In September 2006, the FASB issued SFAS 157, Fair-Value Measurements (SFAS 157), which defines
fair value, establishes guidelines for measuring fair value and expands disclosures regarding fair
value measurements. SFAS 157 does not require any new fair value measurements but rather
eliminates inconsistencies in guidance found in various prior accounting pronouncements. SFAS 157
is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007. Management is evaluating the
impact of SFAS 157, effective for the Company on January 1, 2008, but does not currently expect the
adoption of SFAS 157 to have a material impact on its consolidated statement of financial position
and results of operations.
On February 15, 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 159, The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and
Financial Liabilities Including an Amendment of FASB Statement No. 115 (SFAS 159). SFAS 159
permits an entity to measure financial instruments and certain other items at estimated fair value.
Most of the provisions of SFAS No. 159 are elective; however, the amendment to FASB Statement No.
115, Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt and Equity Securities, applies to all entities
that own trading and available-for-sale securities. The fair value option created by SFAS 159
permits an entity to measure eligible items at fair value as of specified election dates. The fair
value option (a) may generally be applied instrument by instrument, (b) is irrevocable unless a new
election date occurs, and (c) must be applied to the entire instrument and not to only a portion of
the instrument. SFAS 159 is effective for years beginning after November 15, 2007. Management is
evaluating the impact of SFAS 159, effective for the Company on January 1, 2008, but does not
currently expect the adoption of SFAS 159 to have a material impact on its consolidated statement
of financial position and results of operations.

Item 3 Controls and Procedures
Planet Technologies, Inc. and Subsidiary
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
The Companys management, with the participation of the Companys chief executive officer and
chief financial officer, evaluated the effectiveness of the Companys disclosure controls and
procedures as of March 31, 2007. The term disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in
Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act, means controls and other procedures of a
company that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by a company in the
reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and
reported, within the time periods specified in the SECs rules and forms. Disclosure controls and
procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information
required to be disclosed by a company in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange
Act is accumulated and communicated to the companys management, including its principal executive
and principal financial officers, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required
disclosure. Management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed
and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving their objectives and management
necessarily applies its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls
and procedures. Based on the evaluation of the Companys disclosure controls and procedures at the
end of the period covered by this report, the Companys chief executive officer and chief financial
officer concluded that, as of such date, the Companys disclosure controls and procedures were
effective.
Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
There have been no changes in the Companys internal control over financial reporting during the
period ended March 31, 2007, that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially
affect, the Companys internal control over financial reporting.
