ITEM 1. DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS
GENERAL DEVELOPMENT OF BUSINESS
Global Med Technologies, Inc. was organized under the laws of the State of Colorado in December 1989.
In 1995, Global Med Technologies, Inc. merged with the Wyndgate Group, Inc. (Wyndgate). Wyndgate operates as a division of Global Med Technologies, Inc. and designs, develops, markets and supports information management software products for blood banks, hospitals, centralized transfusion services and other healthcare related facilities.
During 1999, Global Med Technologies, Inc. formed a majority-owned subsidiary, PeopleMed.com, Inc. (PeopleMed), a Colorado corporation, to develop a software application designed to give HMO providers and other third party payers, access to clinical information for chronic disease patients. This application allows doctors and other medical employees access to a patients history. PeopleMed offers chronic disease management as an Application Service Provider (ASP). PeopleMeds system uses the Internet to coordinate sources and users of a patients clinical information, including laboratory, pharmacy, primary and specialty care providers, claims and medical records.
PeopleMed is owned 83% by Global Med Technologies, Inc. and 11% by certain executive officers and directors of Global Med Technologies, Inc. and 6% owned by third parties. Global Med Technologies, Inc. and PeopleMed are referred to collectively herein as the Company or Global Med.
SALE OF SERIES A CONVERTIBLE PREFERRED STOCK AND DETACHABLE WARRANTS
On December 16, 2005, pursuant to the terms of the Securities Purchase Agreement, the Company sold $9.975 million of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock (Series A) to certain investors. The Company received net proceeds of $9.590 million for the Preferred Stock. There are 100 thousand Series A authorized and 9,975 shares of Series A outstanding with a stated value of $1 thousand per share. The $9.975 million in Series A is convertible at the holders option into common shares at $0.72 per share based on the Series As stated value. The Series A is presently convertible into 13.854 million shares of common stock at any time. The Series A has preference in liquidation over the Companys common stock. and does not have voting rights. After considering the impact of the $8 million used from the Series A transaction to repay, redeem, an repurchase certain financial instruments from the Companys parent company, the Company had unused proceeds of approximately $1.56 million which the Company used for the final payment of dividends and interest to its now former parent company and for general working capital purposes. See item 6 Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations for disclosures related to the use of the proceeds from the Series A transaction.
The Series A shares are subject to redemption based on the occurrence of certain conditional events. Some of which are outside the control of the Company. Primarily based on these redemption features, the Series A has been recorded as mezzanine equity. The Company, based on the terms of the Series A, cannot issue dividends on the common stock while the Series A is outstanding unless an equal dividend is declared on the Series A. The holders of the Series A also received warrants to purchase 10.391 million common shares that can be exercised at $0.72 per share. These warrants have a cashless exercise feature and a five-year term.
Additionally, as a condition to the Series A preferred the following individuals resigned as directors of the Company on December 16, 2005 as part of the Companys repurchase of securities of the Company owned by GMIL: Fai H. Chan, Kwok Jen Fong, Gary L. Cook, Jr., Tony T.W. Chan, Robert H. Trapp, and David T. Chen.
The following table summarizes the unregistered securities that were issued by the Company in conjunction with the above transaction.

Series A Convertible Preferred Stock | 9,975 | 13,854,167 | |||
Detachable Warrants | 10,390,625 | 10,390,625 |
The Company can force conversion of the Series A provided the following have occurred:
o | The Companys stock has traded at or above a weighted average price of $3.50 per share for 20 consecutive trading days, |
o | The trading volume of the Companys common stock has averaged at least 150 thousand shares per day for 20 consecutive days trading days, and |
o | The common share ownership of the holder of the Series A after conversion would not represent more than 4.99% of the Companys outstanding common stock after conversion. |
The number of common shares the Series A is convertible into will be included in the calculation of diluted common shares outstanding in the event that the inclusion of these common share equivalents has a dilutive effect. The agreement for the purchase of Series A requires the Company to register the common shares underlying the warrants and the Series A. The Series A does not have a dividend. In the event the registration statement underlying the Series A and the related securities is not declared effective within 240 days of issuance, the Company may be required to pay a dividend of 18% on the Series A. As of the date this Form 10-KSB was filed, the Company had received notification that the registration statement for the common shares underlying the Series A and the warrants had been declared effective. In addition to the conditions above, there are certain circumstances which could require the Company to pay liquidated damages on the Series A of up to 4% per month, but not to exceed 24%. These circumstances include but are not limited to failure of the Company to obtain registration of the common shares underlying the warrants and Series A within 155 days of the Series A transaction date which was December 16, 2005. The Company believes that the penalties on the Series A of up to 24% do not exceed the difference between the value of a registered and unregistered share of the Companys common shares.
For a period of one year from the effective date of the registration statement underlying the common shares on the Series A and the warrants, the holders of the Series A are entitled to up to 100% participation in any financing arrangements. In addition, until the 90 days after the effective date of the registration statement for the common shares underlying the Series A and related warrants, the Company may not enter into equity sales or issue options unless they are to employees, officers or directors of the Company.
Recent Developments
On March 29, 2006, the Company renegotiated certain terms related to the Series A and the related warrants. From December 16, 2005 through March 28, 2006, the date prior to the renegotiated terms, the Company classified the Series A as mezzanine equity in the Companys balance sheet. As of March 29, 2006, the Company believes equity classification for the Series A will be appropriate based upon the renegotiated terms. The renegotiated terms resulted in the elimination or addition of several terms that made mezzanine equity treatment more appropriate for the period through March 28, 2006. The significant terms that were eliminated or added are as follows:
1. | Removal of cash payout for events that were outside the control of the Company which included a change of control; |
2. | Removal of a certain clauses that would result in the resetting of the conversion price for the Series A and the related warrants in the event that the Company issued common share equivalents at a price that was less than the conversion price or exercise price of $0.72 per common share; |
3. | Removal of provisions that allowed for dividends to occur in the future under certain circumstances; |
4. | Removal of the preference in liquidation; |
5. | Addition of certain voting rights for preferred shareholders; and |
6. | The ability for the Company to determine a maximum number of common shares that the holders can convert the Series A and related warrants into. |
The Company now believes that the revisions to the terms of the Series A will result in the Series A being classified as equity as of March 29, 2006. In addition, the revised terms have resulted in the Series A being closely and clearly related to equity. As a result, the Company believes that the embedded derivatives identified in note 8 of the accompanying audited financial statements will no longer be treated as embedded derivative financial instruments requiring separate accounting treatment under Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities (SFAS No. 133).

RELATED PARTIES
Pursuant to a Stock Purchase Agreement, dated as of December 16, 2005 between the Company and Global Med International Limited (GMIL), the Companys outstanding debt with GMIL in the amount of $528,700, the outstanding Series AA Preferred Stock in the amount of $3.5 million, outstanding common shares numbering 4.360 million and the outstanding warrants to purchase 11.186 million shares of common stock were paid off, redeemed, or repurchased, respectively, for $8 million using the proceeds of the Series A. In addition, certain new investors purchased 6.350 million common shares from GMIL directly. In addition all of the six members of the Companys Board of Directors nominated by GMIL resigned. As a result of the above transaction, GMIL is no longer a considered a related party of the Company. Prior to this, Global Med was financed primarily through lending arrangements with GMIL. These lending arrangements were originated by eBanker USA.com, Inc., (eBanker) transferred, along with eBankers ownership in Global Med, to Global Med China & Asia Limited (GMCAL) in October 2002, and then the lending arrangements were transferred to GMIL in September 2003. Until November 28, 2001, eBanker was a consolidated subsidiary of eVision International, Inc. (eVision). eVision is majority owned by China Credit Holdings Limited (China Credit formerly Heng Fung Holdings Limited) and its subsidiaries, Online Credit Limited (Online Credit) and Heng Fung Singapore Pte. Limited (Heng Fung Singapore). Until November 2001, eVision was also a shareholder of Global Med. eBanker through its subsidiary, GMCAL, was a shareholder of Global Med. Additionally, eVision and GMCAL each held warrants to acquire 1 million and 11.186 million shares, respectively, of Global Meds common stock with exercise prices that range from $0.25-$0.50 per share. In November 2000, eBanker and Global Med entered into a series of equity transactions that resulted in Global Med becoming a consolidated subsidiary of eBanker and eVision effective November 2000.
On November 28, 2001, the shareholders of eVision approved a transaction, which transferred certain assets of eVision to Online Credit as satisfaction of certain obligations eVision had with Online Credit. As a result, all of the shares of common stock of Global Med owned by eVision and all eBankers common shares and warrants held by eVision were transferred to Online Credit. Consequently, as of November 28, 2001, Global Med remained a consolidated entity of eBanker for accounting purposes; however, eBanker was then directly controlled by Online Credit instead of eVision. Additionally, eVision Corporate Services, Inc. and certain other subsidiaries of China Credit provided certain support services to Global Med.
As a result of these transactions and relationships, the financial condition and results of operations for Global Med may not have necessarily be indicative of those that would have resulted if Global Med had been unaffiliated with these entities.
PRINCIPAL PRODUCTS AND THEIR MARKETS
Global Med designs, develops, markets and supports information management software products for blood banks, hospitals, centralized transfusion centers and other health care related facilities. Revenues are derived from the licensing of software, maintenance, the provision of consulting and other value added support services, and the resale of software obtained from vendors.
Global Med has two main products in its Wyndgate division: SafeTrace® and SafeTrace Tx®. Safe Trace is used to assist community blood centers, hospitals, plasma centers and outpatient clinics in the U.S. in complying with the quality and safety standards of the Food and Drug Administration (the FDA) for the collection and management of blood and blood products. SafeTrace Tx is a transfusion management information system that is designed to be used by hospitals and centralized transfusion centers to help insure the quality of blood transfused into patient-recipients. SafeTrace Tx provides electronic cross-matching capabilities to help insure blood compatibility with patient-recipients and tracks, inventories, bills and documents all activities with blood products from the time blood products are received in inventory to the time the blood products are used or returned to blood centers. SafeTrace Tx complements SafeTrace, because the combined SafeTrace Tx and SafeTrace software system is now able to integrate hospitals with blood centers and provide a vein-to-vein® tracking of the blood supply. SafeTrace Tx received FDA clearance on January 29, 1999.
Global Med continues to concentrate its development efforts on enhancements to its existing SafeTrace blood bank product and SafeTrace Tx. The FDA has cleared both products for sale in the United States.
In 1999, Global Med introduced PeopleMed. PeopleMed supports chronic disease management as an ASP. PeopleMeds system uses the Internet to coordinate sources of information and users of a patients clinical information, including laboratory, pharmacy, primary and specialty care providers, claims, and medical records.
All of Global Meds revenues were generated from providing products and services to end users located throughout the United States, Canada, Puerto Rico and Africa.

COMPETITION
There is substantial competition in all aspects of the blood bank and hospital information management industry. Numerous companies are developing technologies and marketing products and services in the healthcare information management area. Many competitors in the blood bank industry have received FDA clearance for their products. Many of these competitors have been in business longer and have substantially greater personnel and financial resources than Global Med. Global Med is aware of three primary competitors to our SafeTrace software product: Mak-System Corp.; Blood Bank Computer Systems, Inc. and Mediware Information Systems, Inc. There are five primary competitors in the United States to our SafeTrace Tx product: Misys Hospital Systems, Inc. (Misys is a channel partner that currently resells the Companys SafeTrace software); Mediware Information Systems, Inc.; Meditech, Inc., SCC Soft Computer; and Cerner Corp. Global Med believes it is able to compete based on the current technological capabilities of SafeTrace and SafeTrace Tx.
DEPENDENCE ON MAJOR CUSTOMERS
As of January 17, 2006, Global Med, through its Wyndgate division, had over 160 customers. It intends to continue to target domestic and international blood centers, plasma centers and hospital donor and transfusion centers. During the years ended December 31, 2005 and 2004, there were no customers accounting for more than 10% of revenues.
Royalty And Commission Agreements
The Royalty Group. Pursuant to a development agreement between Wyndgate and the Royalty Group, Wyndgate developed SafeTrace and must make royalty payments to the Royalty Group based on a percentage of Wyndgates SafeTrace license fees collected, measured by cash received from SafeTrace licensees, net of certain fees and charges. The royalty schedule is based upon the first date of SafeTrace license invoicing, which was September 14, 1995. The royalty amounts are computed as a percentage of software license fees collected. For the years ended December 31, 2005 and 2004, Global Med expensed $8 thousand and $0, respectively, and are included in the cost of revenues in the statement of operations. Global Med has accrued but not paid any royalties for the years ended December 31, 2005 and 2004. As of December 31, 2005, the outstanding royalty obligation was approximately $132 thousand.
Siemens Medical Solutions Health Services Corporation. During September of 1999, Global Med entered into a non-exclusive marketing and support agreement with Shared Medical Systems Corporation (SMS).

National Jewish Medical and Research Center. Global Med, through its PeopleMed subsidiary, entered into a development and non-exclusive Marketing Agreement with National Jewish Medical and Research Center (National Jewish). Under the terms of this agreement, Global Med will pay National Jewish a royalty for all sales of PeopleMeds products that use National Jewishs protocols. In addition, in February 2002, PeopleMed signed a Sales and Marketing Agreement with National Jewish, whereby National Jewish will be paid a commission for sales of PeopleMeds products facilitated by National Jewish. The initial term of this agreement expired and this agreement has been automatically renewed. During the term of this agreement, there have been no royalties paid to National Jewish.

McKesson Information Solutions LLC. Global Med entered into a Value Added Marketing Agreement (McKesson Agreement) with McKesson Information Solutions LLC, a division of McKesson Corporation, to provide Wyndgates SafeTrace Tx (the Software) advanced transfusion management system as Horizon Blood Bank, as a privately-labeled (OEM) module to be separately licensed with McKessons Horizon Lab solution. Horizon Blood Bank serves as a tool to help organizations improve patient safety by automating the management and tracking of patient transfusion services.
The McKesson Agreement grants McKesson the right to privately brand SafeTrace Tx in the United States, Canada, and Mexico. The McKesson Agreement also grants McKesson rights to market the Software to McKessons hospital information system, clinical systems and ancillary systems customers. This Agreement does not prevent Wyndgate from pursing sales opportunities through its existing channel partner base as provided and/or required by those agreements. Wyndgate is not required and will not inform McKesson of the opportunities brought to Wyndgate by its channel partners.
The McKesson Agreement requires Wyndgate and McKesson to integrate certain aspects of their respective software products. Wyndgate and McKesson have agreed that certain aspects of their joint software development will be unique to one another, and not available to any other channel partner or non-McKesson customers. In light of these grants of exclusivity, McKesson has agreed to certain revenue commitments in order to maintain their marketing rights in terms of the increased software product functionality. The revenue commitments include software license fees, implementation services fees, and maintenance fees.
In the event that McKesson is unable to meet certain revenue commitments, McKesson has the right to purchase prepaid license fees from Wyndgate in order to maintain its marketing rights. In the McKesson Agreement, Wyndgate has agreed to notify McKesson, as soon as reasonably possible, if any entity makes a proposal to acquire a majority share in, or full ownership of, Global Med or the Software. McKesson would have the right within ten (10) days to also make an offer after receipt of such notice. Global Med has no obligation to accept such offer. The McKesson Agreement grants McKesson the right to participate in meetings that relate to future development of the Software. Wyndgate is required to provide frequent and timely communications on the path of the Software. Wyndgate and McKesson have agreed to certain enhancements to the Software. The McKesson Agreement provides for McKesson to pay Wyndgate certain fees for the licensing of the Software, performance of implementation and maintenance services by Wyndgate for McKessons customers using the Software.
Certain terms of the McKesson Agreement are not provided because they are proprietary in nature and are subject to confidentiality and non-disclosure provisions under the McKesson Agreement.
Paratech, LLC. Global Med, through its PeopleMed subsidiary, entered into a non-exclusive marketing agreement with Paratech, LLC. (Paratech). Under the terms of this agreement, Global Med will pay Paratech a commission for sales of PeopleMeds products they facilitate.
Government Approval And Regulation
The FDA requires all blood tracking application software vendors to submit a 510(k) application for review. The application process for FDA review and compliance with FDA guidelines relates to computer software products regulated as medical devices. The FDA considers software products intended for the following to be medical devices: (i) use in the manufacture of blood and blood components; or (ii) maintenance of data used to evaluate the suitability of donors and the release of blood or blood components for transfusion or further manufacturing. As medical device manufacturers, Global Med and its competitors are required to register with the Center for Biologics Evaluation and Research (CBER), list their medical devices, and submit a pre-market notification or application for pre-market review. In April 1997, Global Meds Wyndgate division received notification from the FDA of its finding of substantial equivalence of SafeTrace. This determination provides a 510(k) clearance and permits Global Med to continue to market SafeTrace. On January 29, 1999, the 510(k) clearance was received for SafeTrace Tx.
7
Global Meds products and services are subject to regulations adopted by governmental authorities, including the FDA, which governs blood center computer software products regulated as medical devices. Global Med is also required to follow applicable Quality System Regulations (QSR) of the FDA, which include testing, control and documentation requirements, as well as similar requirements in other countries, including International Standards Organization (ISO) 9001 standards. In 1996 Congress passed legislation that impacted the healthcare information management. The Healthcare Information Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA) requires the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) to enact standards for information sharing, security and patient confidentiality. Although HHS has not issued clarification on many of the topics under HIPAA, Global Med believes these regulations will have an important impact on requiring advanced management information systems that will enable various healthcare organizations to comply with emerging requirements.
HIPAA contains provisions regarding the confidentiality and security of patient medical record information. Standards for the electronic handling of health data and security of patient information became effective in 2000. This legislation requires the Secretary of Health and Human Services, or HHS, to (i) adopt national standards for electronic health information transactions, (ii) adopt standards to ensure the integrity and confidentiality of health information, and (iii) establish a schedule for implementing national health data privacy legislation or regulations. The standards and legislation will impact the customers ability to obtain, use or disseminate patient information, which will extend to their use of Global Meds products. Global Med believes that the proposed standards issued to date would not materially affect the business of Global Med. Global Med cannot determine the potential impact of the standards that might finally be adopted.
Financing Agreements With Related Parties
Pursuant to a Stock Purchase Agreement between the Company and GMIL, dated as of December 16, 2005, the Company paid off the outstanding debt in the amount of $529 thousand and all accrued interest in the amount of $86 thousand it owed GMIL. In addition, on December 16, 2005, the Company redeemed the $3.5 million Series AA Preferred Stock held by GMIL in the amount of $3.5 million and paid all of the accrued dividends in the amount of $226 thousand. As a result, all of the Companys financing obligations to GMIL have been paid off or redeemed.
Debt Conversion
Pursuant to a Stock Purchase Agreement, dated as of December 16, 2005 between the Company and Global Med International Limited (GMIL), the Companys outstanding debt with GMIL in the amount of $528,700, the outstanding Series AA Preferred Stock in the amount of $3.5 million, outstanding common shares numbering 4.360 million and the outstanding warrants to purchase 11.186 million shares of common stock were paid off, redeemed, or repurchased, respectively, for $8 million using the proceeds of the Series A. In addition, certain new investors purchased 6.350 million common shares from GMIL directly. In addition, all of the six members of the Companys Board of Directors nominated by GMIL resigned. As a result of the above transaction, GMIL is no longer considered a related party of the Company effective December 16, 2005.
Pursuant to a Loan Restructuring and Restatement Agreement between Global Med and eBanker of which GMIL is a subsidiary, dated November 19, 2000, as amended (the Agreement), Global Med was required to repay $3.829 million, which amount included all principal, interest and other charges due under the Agreement (except for $96 thousand in extension interest payments and accrued interest thereon due on July 1, 2004), on or before March 1, 2004. By an Assignment dated July 4, 2002, eBanker assigned the Agreement to Global Med International Holdings Limited (GMIHL), a subsidiary of eBanker and parent company of GMIL. By an Assignment dated July 4, 2002, GMIHL assigned the Agreement to GMIL. By an Assignment dated October 28, 2002, GMIL assigned the Agreement to GMCAL, a subsidiary of GMIL. By an Assignment dated September 19, 2003, GMCAL assigned the Agreement to GMIL. Pursuant to a Loan and Promissory Note between Global Med and GMIHL dated June 18, 2002, as previously amended (the Note), Global Med was required to repay GMIHL $200 thousand, which amount included all principal, interest and other charges due under the Note (except for $12 thousand in extension interest payments due on July 1, 2004), on or before March 1, 2004. GMIHL has assigned the Note to GMIL. The total debt owed by Global Med to GMIL under the Agreement and the Note (except for the $96 thousand in extension interest payments and accrued interest thereon due on July 1, 2004 and the $12 thousand in extension interest payments due on July 1, 2004, referenced above) (the Debt) was $4.029 million at December 31, 2003.
8
On April 14, 2004, GMIL and Global Med amended their existing financing agreements and entered into an agreement to combine the outstanding $3.829 million and $200 thousand debt agreements. The combined loan of $4.029 million was then separated into two parts: $529 thousand was converted into debt (Remaining Debt) and $3.5 million was converted into $1 par value Series AA Convertible Redeemable Preferred Stock (Preferred Stock). (See note 6 of the financial statements for further discussion of the preferred stock.) The due date of the Remaining Debt was March 1, 2006. The interest rate on the Remaining Debt was 15% per year and interest on this debt was due and payable quarterly on March 1, June 1, September 1, and December 1 of each year until the Remaining Debt is paid in full. The Remaining Debt was secured by all of Global Meds assets and is subject to the outstanding terms of November 19, 2000 financing agreement (Loan Agreement). As of April 14, 2004, Global Med had paid GMIL $287 thousand of the $287 thousand extension fee. On December 31, 2004, principal of $529 thousand and accrued interest of $69 thousand was outstanding under the terms of the Remaining Debt agreement. The Remaining Debt was paid off on December 16, 2005.
Under the terms of the Remaining Debt and Preferred Stock Agreements, the personal guaranty of Dr. Michael I. Ruxin, the Companys Chairman and CEO, remained in effect until both the Preferred Stock and Remaining Debt and any related dividends or interest, respectively, are paid. Unless Global Med is in default of the Remaining Debt or Preferred Stock agreements, Dr. Ruxins personal guaranty is limited to the debt and related interest and will not exceed $650 thousand and will remain in effect until the total Remaining Debt has been fully paid or satisfied. The personal guaranty was limited to certain of Dr. Ruxins assets.

ITEM 3. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
In September 2002, Global Med filed a lawsuit against Donnie L. Jackson, Jr., Global Meds former Vice President of Sales and Marketing. Global Med alleges, among other things, that prior to his resignation in July 2002 Mr. Jackson misappropriated certain trade secrets of Global Med. After leaving Global Med, Mr. Jackson became a management employee of one of Global Meds competitors. On March 30, 2005, the Superior Court of the State of California in and for the County of El Dorado granted the motion for summary judgment for Donnie L. Jackson, Jr. On September 1, 2005, the Company deposited $1.004 million with the Superior Court in the State of California in the County of El Dorado. This deposit represents potential fees and attorneys costs the Company could be required to pay in the event the Company does not prevail on appeal. The $1.004 million is classified as a Deposit in escrow on the Companys balance sheet as of December 31, 2005. Based on external evidence and the advice of legal counsel, the Company has determined that it is more likely than not that the Company will be required to pay the $1.004 million that is currently classified as a Deposit in escrow. As a result, the Company expensed the amount of the Deposit in escrow and set up a liability for $1.004 million in the form of Litigation accrual as of December 31, 2005. The Company is currently appealing the judges decision and in the event the Company prevails, the Company may be refunded the $1.004 million deposit or a portion thereof. In the event the Company prevails, the Company could recognize a reduction in expenses ranging between $0 and $1.004 million.

Dividends
Common Stock
The payment of dividends by the Company is within the discretion of its Board of Directors and depends in part upon the Companys earnings, capital requirements and financial condition. Since its inception, the Company has not paid any dividends on its common stock and does not anticipate paying such dividends in the foreseeable future. The Company intends to retain earnings, if any, to finance its operations. In accordance with the terms of the Companys Series A Convertible Preferred Stock, the Company cannot issue dividends on the common stock while the Series A is outstanding unless an equal dividend is declared on the Series A. The dividend on the Series A would be calculated by determining the number of common shares the Series A is convertible into and then applying the same dividend to the Series A that was provided to the common shareholders.
Preferred Stock
The Company has 9,975 shares of Series A Preferred Stock that are outstanding as of January 17, 2006. There are currently no dividends on the preferred stock.

The Series AA Preferred Stock can be converted by GMIL into common stock of the Company at any time at a conversion rate of (2.222) shares of common stock for each share of Series AA Preferred Stock. Therefore, the Series AA Preferred Stock is convertible into approximately 7.777 million common shares. The sales were not underwritten and no commissions were paid in connection with the sales.

These shares are considered outstanding as of April 14, 2004. The Series BB Preferred Stock was convertible at a rate of one share per common per one share of Series BB at the option of the holder if the Companys common stock closing price reaches $0.75 per share. Upon written notice by Dr. Ruxin, the Series BB was convertible into common stock. The 675 thousand shares of Series BB Preferred Stock were converted into the same number of common shares in December 2004. The sales were not underwritten and no commissions were paid in connection with the sales. The securities were issued under the exemption(s) provided by Sections 4(2) and 4(6) of the Securities Act. These shares were issued in September and converted into common shares in December.
All investors participating in private placements for cash were accredited investors within the meaning of Regulation D. In addition, we note that there are several categories of recipients of these shares. These include investors for cash, officers, directors, consultants, litigants and former shareholders of private companies acquired by Global Med. Global Med believes that these transactions complied in all respects with Section 4(2). Global Med believes that this conclusion is true even if the transactions occurring within each category are integrated with other transactions occurring within six months or one year of a given transaction.

ITEM 6. MANAGEMENTS DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS AND ASSOCIATED RISKS
This Annual Report on Form 10-KSB contains certain forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the 1933 Act and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (1934 Act), and the Company intends that such forward-looking statements be subject to the safe harbors for such statements under such sections. The Companys forward-looking statements include the plans and objectives of management for future operations, including plans and objectives relating to the Companys planned marketing efforts and future economic performance of the Company. The forward-looking statements and associated risks set forth in this Annual Report on Form 10-KSB include or relate to among other things: (i) the ability of the Company to obtain a meaningful degree of consumer acceptance for its software products and proposed software products, (ii) the ability of the Company to market its software products and proposed software products on a national and international basis at competitive prices, (iii) the ability of the Companys software products and proposed software products to meet government regulations and standards, (iv) the ability of the Company to develop and maintain an effective national and international sales network, (v) success of the Company in forecasting demand for its software products and proposed software products, (vi) the ability of the Company to maintain pricing and thereby maintain adequate profit margins, (vii) the ability of the Company to achieve adequate intellectual property protection for the Companys software products and proposed software products, and (viii) the ability of the Company and its customers to successfully and timely implement the Companys software products.
The forward-looking statements herein are based on current expectations that involve a number of risk and uncertainties. Such forward-looking statements are based on assumptions that, among other things, the Company will market and provide software products on a timely basis, that there will be no material adverse competitive or technological change in condition of the Companys business, that demand for the Companys software products will significantly increase, that the Companys Chief Executive Officer will remain employed as such by the Company, that the Companys forecasts accurately anticipate market demand and that there will be no material adverse change in the Companys operations, business or governmental regulation affecting the Company or its suppliers. The foregoing assumptions are based on judgments with respect to, among other things, future economic, competitive and market conditions, and future business decisions, all of which are difficult or impossible to predict accurately and many of which are beyond the Companys control. Accordingly, although the Company believes that the assumptions underlying the forward-looking statements are reasonable, any such assumption could prove to be inaccurate and therefore there can be no assurance that the results contemplated in forward-looking statements will be realized. In addition, as disclosed elsewhere in this Annual Report on Form 10-KSB, there are a number of other risks inherent in the Companys business and operations which could cause the Companys operating results to vary markedly and adversely from prior results or the results contemplated by the forward-looking statements. Growth in absolute and relative amounts of cost of sales, research and development, sales and marketing and other operating expenses or the occurrence of other events could cause actual results to vary materially from the results contemplated by the forward- looking statements. Management decisions, including budgeting, are subjective in many respects and periodic revisions must be made to reflect actual conditions and business developments, the impact of which may cause the Company to alter its marketing, capital investment and other expenditures, may also materially and adversely affect the Companys liquidity, financial position and results of operations. In light of significant uncertainties inherent in the forward-looking information included in this Annual Report on Form 10-KSB, the inclusion of such information should not be regarded as a representation by the Company or any other person that the Companys objectives or plans will be achieved.
GENERAL
The Company designs, develops, markets and supports information management software products for blood banks, hospitals, centralized transfusion centers and other health care related facilities. Revenues for Wyndgate are derived from the licensing of software, the provision of consulting and other value-added support services and the re-sale of hardware and software obtained from vendors. Revenues for PeopleMed are derived, generally, from providing ASP services. Revenues for PeopleMed were not significant.
Business Strategy
The Companys business strategy for marketing and selling its products and services is two tiered:
1. |
The first tier is comprised of direct selling to customers through the Companys internal sales force, and |
2. |
The second tier is focused on marketing and selling directly through agreements with companies (Channel Partner Agreements) that are established in blood donor hospital markets. |
The Companys ability to increase future revenues is highly dependent upon the Companys ability to make further inroads in selling its products directly to potential customers. These Channel Partner Agreements are more fully described in BUSINESS, ROYALTY AND COMMISSION AGREEMENTS. In addition, the Companys success is dependent upon the ability of its marketing partners to sell their complementary products in conjunction with the Companys.

Sale of Series A and Repurchase and Redemption of Certain Financial Instruments
On December 16, 2005, pursuant to the terms of the Securities Purchase Agreement, the Company sold $9.975 million of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock (Series A) to certain investors. The Company received net proceeds of $9.590 million for the Preferred Stock. There are 100 thousand Series A authorized and 9,975 shares of Series A outstanding with a stated value of $1 thousand per share. The $9.975 million in Series A is convertible at the holders option into common shares at $0.72 per share based on the Series As stated value.
The following table summarizes the unregistered securities that were issued by the Company in conjunction with the above transaction.

The Company plans on using the remainder of the proceeds from the sale of the Series A of $1.56 million for general working capital purposes and making the final dividend payments due to GMIL. The repurchase or redemption of the Series AA will result in an annual reduction of dividends and interest payments in the amount of approximately $814 thousand.
Overview
Global Med provides information management software products and services to the health care industry. Wyndgate operates as a division of Global Med and designs, develops, markets and supports information management software products for blood banks, hospitals, centralized transfusion centers and other healthcare related facilities. The Companys PeopleMed subsidiary offers chronic disease management as an Application Service Provider (ASP). PeopleMeds system uses the Internet to coordinate sources and users of a patients clinical information, including laboratory, pharmacy, primary and specialty care providers, claims and medical records. PeopleMed earns revenues primarily by providing ongoing ASP services. PeopleMeds revenues were not significant during the years ended December 31, 2005 and 2004.
The Company has two main products in its Wyndgate division: SafeTrace and SafeTrace Tx. SafeTrace is used by blood centers and hospitals to track blood donations. SafeTrace Tx is used primarily by hospitals and centralized transfusion services to help insure the quality of blood transfused into patient-recipients. Both products are designed to help the users comply with quality and safety standards of the FDA for the collection and management of blood and blood products. The Companys Wyndgate division earns revenues primarily through the sale of software licenses, implementation of the software systems sold, and by providing maintenance for the SafeTrace and SafeTrace Tx software systems.
The decision to purchase a new blood bank system is driven in large part by one or all of the following: replacing antiquated technology, upgrading the laboratory information system (LIS) of the hospital which typically includes the purchase of a blood bank system, and replacing existing products that have been sunsetted. The Company believes that because the purchase of an LIS by a hospital is a significant driver in the decision to purchase a blood bank system, the Company is heavily reliant on its relationships with its channel partners that sell their LIS systems in combination with the Companys blood bank products. The Companys channel partner relationships are more fully discussed in BUSINESS, ROYALTY AND COMMISSION AGREEMENTS.
Entities that plan to purchase blood bank products primarily have two choices:
1. |
Upgrade their current system with their existing vendor, or |
2. |
Select a replacement system from an alternative vendor. |
15
The Companys two primary locations are in Lakewood, Colorado, the corporate headquarters, and El Dorado Hills, California. The Companys primary operations which include research and development, implementation staff, support services, and certain administrative staff, are located in the El Dorado Hills facility. Approximately 38% of the Companys employees are not located in Lakewood, Colorado or El Dorado Hills. These employees provide support for the Companys sales and marketing, research and development, and implementation efforts.
Overall, Global Meds revenues for the year ended December 31, 2005 increased $4.320 million to $11.204 million from $6.884 million from the prior year. Cost of revenues increased $946 thousand or 38.8% for the year ended December 31, 2005 to $3.383 million from $2.437 million for the prior year. For the year ended December 31, 2005 and 2004, Global Meds operating expenses were $8.691 million and $5.029 million, respectively. Global Med had net losses of $10.819 million and $766 thousand during the years ended December 31, 2005 and 2004, respectively. The increased net losses were primarily associated with a $9.340 million charge for embedded derivatives in the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock issued December 16, 2006, the expenses associated with a payment of $1.004 million for a summary judgment related to certain outstanding litigation and the write down of an outstanding note receivable and its accrued interest that totaled $565 thousand.
For the year ended December 31, 2005, Global Meds operations used $984 thousand in cash. For the comparable period in 2004 Global Meds operations provided $256 thousand. The use of cash in 2005 was primarily the result of a $1.004 million payment the company made to the courts to be held in escrow as the company is awaiting a decision on an appeal it has made, see Legal Proceedings for further discussion. For 2006, Global Med believes that its cash flows from the sale of SafeTrace and SafeTrace Tx to new customers and the current backlog of existing business will be sufficient to fund its operations through the remainder of fiscal year 2006. If Global Med is unable to meet its sales projections, Global Med may be required to significantly reduce planned as well as existing levels of expenditures for all cost categories which includes, cost of sales, sales and marketing, research and development, and general and administrative. If Global Med substantially reduces its planned or the existing levels of expenditures, this could significantly impact Global Meds future viability in the blood bank software market.
Management of the Company is focused on increasing its revenues and cash flows through direct sales efforts, increasing its marketing footprint through adding additional channel partners and strategic alliances, and developing new products and enhanced functionality to its existing product mix to make them more attractive to potential customers.
During the fourth quarter of 2005, the Company set up a 100% reserve of approximately $1.004 million in amounts that were classified as deposits in escrow on the Companys balance sheet as of September 30, 2005. In addition, the Company will set up a 100% reserve for $400 thousand in notes receivables and $165 thousand in accrued interest that were on the Companys balance sheet as of December 31, 2005. The expenses associated with setting up these reserves had a material impact on the Companys financial statements for the quarter ended December 31, 2005 and the year then ended.
The Company billed out approximately $10.9 million to our customers during 2005. Our cash inflows from operations for this same period were approximately $10.5 million. In addition, the Companys revenues have been increasing double-digit rates since the third quarter of 2004 when compared with the prior years comparable quarters.

Balance Sheet Changes
As of December 31, 2005 and 2004, certain balance sheet account changes were significant. Accounts receivable, net increased by $298 thousand, primarily as a result of increased billings. Accrued revenues increased by $566 thousand primarily as a result of a single contract for which the billing was sent out in January 2006. Notes receivable and the related accrued interest decreased by $529 thousand as a result of the Company setting up a reserve for the entire balance. Related party financing decreased $529 thousand as a result of the Companys paying off its outstanding debt to GMIL. In addition, the Company redeemed $3.493 million in Series AA Preferred Stock. In addition, the Companys Series A Convertible Preferred Stock balance increased by $9.975 million as a result of a transaction that occurred on December 16, 2005. The Series A Convertible Preferred Stock and the related warrants contained features which were deemed to be embedded derivatives. The Company valued these derivatives at $15.267 million as of December 31, 2005.
YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2005 COMPARED TO YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2004
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Revenues. Revenues are comprised of software sales, maintenance and usage fees revenues, implementation and consulting revenues, and the re-sale of hardware and software obtained from vendors.
Revenues increased $4.320 million, or 62.8% to $11.204 million for the year ended December 31, 2005 compared to $6.884 million for the year ended December 31, 2004. The increase in revenues was due primarily to a $2.033 million increase in license fees, a $1.640 million increase in implementation and consulting fees, and a $525 thousand increase in usage fees.
Cost of Revenues. Cost of revenues increased $946 thousand, or 38.8%, to $3.383 million for the year ended December 31, 2005, from $2.437 million for the year ended December 31, 2004. The increase in costs was primarily the result of increased headcount that was necessitated by the increased number of implementations and customization work. As a result, labor-related expenses increased $577 thousand. In addition, travel expenses increased $151 thousand, third party software costs increased $112 thousand, and expenses associated primarily with accelerated stock option vesting increased by $58 thousand.
The overall gross profit as a percentage of revenues was 69.8% and 64.6% for the years ended December 31, 2005 and 2004, respectively. The margins for 2004 were higher primarily due to increased sales of software license fees.
General and Administrative. General and administrative expenses increased $275 thousand, or 11.3%, to $2.709 million for the year ended December 31, 2005 compared to $2.434 million for the year ended December 31, 2004. The primary reason for the increase in general and administrative expenses was the $308 thousand charge associated primarily with the acceleration of certain option grants from prior years.
Summary Judgment. During 2005, the Company deposited $1.004 million with the Superior Court in the State of California in the County of El Dorado as payment for a summary judgment in its lawsuit against a former employee. These funds were for legal expenses and costs, and were not punitive in nature. The deposit was expensed in the fourth quarter of 2005 and had a material impact on the financial statements of the Company. There were no expenses related to this category during 2004. See the section Legal Proceedings for further discussion.
Sales and Marketing. Sales and marketing expenses increased $973 thousand or 60.9% to $2.57 million for the year ended December 31, 2005 from $1.597 million for the year ended December 31, 2004. The increases in sales and marketing expenses were primarily attributable to a $642 thousand increase in labor-related expenses, a $201 thousand expense related primarily to the acceleration of stock option vesting, and a $67 thousand charge related to marketing and advertising activities.
Research and Development. Research and development expenses increased by $1.403 million, or 167.4%, to $2.241 million for the year ended December 31, 2005 from $838 thousand for the year ended December 31, 2004. The increases in research and development expenses were primarily attributable to a $1.110 million increase in labor-related expenses, a $115 thousand increase in overhead-related expenses, a $110 thousand expense related primarily to the acceleration of stock option vesting, and, and a $55 thousand increase in travel related-expenses.
Depreciation and Software Amortization. Depreciation and software amortization costs increased by $7 thousand to $167 thousand from $160 thousand for the periods ended December 31, 2005 and 2004, respectively.
17
Other Financing Costs. The Company recognized $11.032 million in expenses related to financing costs associated with the issuance of the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock on December 16, 2005. See further discussion in Note 8 of the audited financial statements.
Change in Estimated Fair Value of Derivative. The Company recognized a gain of $1.692 million related to the change in value of certain derivatives associated with the Companys Series A. The change in value was for the period from December 16, 2005, the date the Series A was purchased, to December 31, 2005.
Interest Income. Interest income decreased $42 thousand to $9 thousand in 2005 from $51 thousand in 2004. The primary reason for the decrease was due to the valuation reserve in 2005 related to interest income the Company had been recognizing on the outstanding note receivable balance.
Interest Expense. Interest expense decreased $146 thousand to $89 thousand for the year ended December 31, 2005 from $235 thousand for the year ended December 31, 2004. The decrease in interest expense was mainly due to the decrease in debt related to the conversion of $3.5 million of the $4.029 million in related party debt into convertible Preferred Stock Series AA. This occurred on April 14, 2004.
Net Loss. The Companys net loss during 2005 as compared to 2004 increased $10.053 million to $10.819 million from $766 thousand, respectively. The increase in the net loss was primarily associated with the $9.340 million net charge related to embedded derivatives associated with the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock, $1.004 million charge related to creating an accrual for the summary judgment deposit and the $529 thousand reserve the Company set up during 2005 related to certain notes receivable.
CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ESTIMATES
Managements 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. The preparation of these financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue and expenses, and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. Management bases its 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.
A critical accounting policy is one that is both important to the portrayal of the Companys financial condition or results of operations and requires significant judgment or a complex estimation process. The Company believes the following fit that definition:
Revenue Recognition
The Company recognizes revenue in accordance with the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants Statement of Position (SOP) No. 97-2, Software Revenue Recognition. The Companys standard software license agreement for the Companys products provides for an initial fee to use the product in perpetuity up to a maximum number of users. Fees from software licenses are recognized as revenue upon shipment, provided fees are fixed and determinable and collection is probable. Fees from licenses sold together with consulting services are generally recognized upon shipment provided that the above criteria have been met, payment of the license fees is not dependent upon the performance of the consulting services and the consulting services are not essential to the functionality of the licensed software. In instances in which the consulting services are not essential to the functionality of the software but payment of the license fee is due at the earlier of the performance of specific consulting services or the passage of time, the license fee is recognized ratably over the anticipated period of performance of the services or ratably over the license fee billing period, whichever is more readily determinable.
For arrangements with multiple elements, we allocate revenue to each element of a transaction based upon its fair value as determined by vendor specific objective evidence. Vendor specific objective evidence of fair value for all elements of an arrangement is based upon the normal pricing and discounting practices for those products and services when sold separately and for software license updates and product support services, and is additionally measured by the renewal rate offered to the customer. We may modify our pricing practices in the future, which could result in changes in our vendor specific objective evidence of fair value for these undelivered elements. As a result, our future revenue recognition for multi-element arrangements could differ significantly from our historical results.
If an arrangement does not qualify for separate accounting of the software license and consulting transactions, then new software license revenue is generally recognized together with the consulting services based on contract accounting using the percentage-of-completion method. Contract accounting is generally applied to arrangements when services include significant modification or customization of the software. Progress towards completion is generally measured based on hours incurred versus projected total hours. The projected costs associated with contract accounting are accrued at rates consistent with the revenue recognized under percentage of completion.
18
Certain of the Companys contracts include warranties that provide for refunds of all or a portion of the software license and or other fees in the event that the Company is unable to provide maintenance services, for which there is a separate fee, for the contractually prescribed period. Contracts with these provisions are accounted for in accordance with the policies above.
The Company provides consulting services that include implementation, training and the performance of other services to its customers. Revenue from such services is generally recognized ratably over the period during which the applicable service is to be performed. In addition, the Company may recognize certain implementation revenues based on hourly rates in effect on the contract multiplied by the number of hours completed.
Support agreements generally call for the Company to provide technical support and software updates, on a when-and-if-available basis to customers. Revenue on technical support and software update rights is recognized ratably over the term of the support agreement.
PeopleMed has contracts that include fixed fee and per-member fees. The Company recognizes revenues from these contracts as services are provided.
Note Receivable Collectibility
The Company had outstanding notes receivable in the amount of $400 thousand and accrued interest receivable of approximately $165 thousand outstanding as of September 30, 2005. The Company lent money to the party to the notes receivable from 2001 to 2003. Consistent with the terms of the notes receivable, the Company has received no interest or principal payments and all accrued and unpaid interest and principal are due at various dates during 2006. As of September 30, 2005, the notes receivable and accrued interest in the amount of $565 thousand were classified an asset and there was no reserve. Subsequent to the filing of the Companys Form 10-QSB for the period ended September 30, 2005, the Company received external information that made the Company believe that setting up a reserve for the entire amount of the notes receivable and accrued interest in the amount of $565 thousand was necessary. The Company recognized the expense and set up the reserve for the $565 thousand in the fourth quarter of 2005. The establishment of the reserve in the amount of $565 thousand had a material impact on the financial statements of the Company for the quarter and year ended December 31, 2005.
Deposit In Escrow Collectibility
In September 2002, Global Med filed a lawsuit against Donnie L. Jackson, Jr., Global Meds former Vice President of Sales and Marketing. Global Med alleges, among other things, that prior to his resignation in July 2002 Mr. Jackson misappropriated certain trade secrets of Global Med. After leaving Global Med, Mr. Jackson became a management employee of one of Global Meds competitors. On March 30, 2005, the Superior Court of the State of California in and for the County of El Dorado granted the motion for summary judgment for Donnie L. Jackson, Jr. On September 1, 2005, the Company deposited $1.004 million with the Superior Court in the State of California in the County of El Dorado. This deposit represents potential fees and attorneys costs the Company could be required to pay in the event the Company does not prevail on appeal. The $1.004 million is classified as a Deposit in escrow on the Companys balance sheet as of December 31, 2005. Based on external evidence, the Company has determined that it is more likely than not that the Company will be required to pay the $1.004 million that is currently classified as a Deposit in escrow. As a result, the Company expensed the amount of the Deposit in escrow and set up a liability for $1.004 million in the form of Litigation accrual as of December 31, 2005. The Company is currently appealing the judges decision and in the event the Company prevails, the Company may be refunded the $1.004 million deposit or a portion thereof. In the event the Company prevails, the Company could recognize a reduction in expenses ranging between $0 and $1.004 million.
19
Derivative Financial Instruments
The Series A Convertible Preferred Stock and related warrants include certain terms, conditions and features which are separately accounted for as embedded derivative liabilities at estimated fair value. The determination of fair value includes significant estimates by management including the term of the instruments, volatility of the price of the Companys common stock, interest rates and the probability of conversion, redemption or a future dilutive financing transaction, among other items. The fluctuations in estimated fair value may be significant from period-to-period which, in turn, may have a significant impact on the Companys reported financial condition and results of operations.
Income Tax Valuation Allowance
On an annual basis, the management of the Company evaluates the realizability of the net deferred tax assets and assesses the need for a valuation allowance. In assessing the realizability of deferred tax assets, management concluded that it is not more likely than not that the deferred tax assets would not be realized. The ultimate realization of the deferred tax assets is dependent on the generation of future taxable income in the period in which the temporary differences become deductible. The Company has established a full valuation allowance for deferred taxes due to the uncertainty that the deferred tax assets will be utilized.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
The Company had cash and cash equivalents of $1.368 million and $1.633 million as of December 31, 2005 and 2004, respectively. Additionally, the Company had a net working capital deficit of $849 thousand and $1.452 million as of December 31, 2005 and 2004, respectively.
On December 16, 2005, pursuant to the terms of the Securities Purchase Agreement, the Company sold $9.975 million of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock to certain investors. The Company received $9.85 million in gross cash proceeds for the Preferred Stock. The Company used a portion of the proceeds from the sale of Series A Preferred Stock to repurchase certain financial instruments and make final dividend and interest payments to its now former parent company and the remainder will be used for general working capital purposes. The following financial instruments held by GMIL or their affiliates were repurchased by the Company for $8 million in conjunction with this transaction:
o |
$3.5 million in Convertible Series AA Preferred Stock |
o |
$528,700 in outstanding debt |
o |
11,186,430 warrants |
o |
4,860,195 common shares |
On December 16, 2005, the Company and Fusion Capital terminated their common stock purchase agreement and entered into a new agreement to purchase Series A Preferred Stock which was part of the $9.975 million in Series A Convertible Preferred Stock purchases.
It is expected that cash flows from the Companys existing customer base, new sales and the Companys current assets, including cash and accounts receivable, will be sufficient to fund the Companys liquidity and capital requirements for the next twelve months excluding acquisitions or major new product development initiatives. The Company believes it will have positive cash flows from operations on an annual basis for 2006 and possibly thereafter. In the event the Companys projections do not occur as anticipated, the Company may not generate sufficient revenues to operate profitably in the future or generate sufficient operating cash flows to pay its liabilities as they become due and may be forced to curtail our business operations or acquire additional financing.
Net cash used by operating activities was $984 thousand during 2005. During 2004, operations provided $256 thousand. The cash used by operations of $984 thousand during 2005 consisted primarily of the net loss of $10.819 million and changes in operating assets and liabilities of $1.012 million, offset by non-cash charges of $10.847 million. Of the $10.847 million in non-cash charges, $9.340 million related to charges associated with embedded derivatives resulting form the issuance of the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock. During the year ended 2004, the Company received $265 thousand in cash proceeds related to the termination of a contract with a significant customer. See Note 1 of the consolidated financial statements for further discussion. During the years ended 2005 and 2004, the Company made cash interest payments of $145 thousand and $259 thousand, respectively, to its now former parent Company.
Net cash used by investing activities was $178 thousand and $77 thousand, during 2005, and 2004, respectively. The Companys financing activities provided $897 thousand and $471 thousand in 2005 and 2004, respectively. As of December 31, 2005, the Company had the following contractual obligations or unrecorded obligations:

IMPACT OF INFLATION
Although it is difficult to predict the impact of inflation on our costs and revenues in connection with our products, we do not anticipate that inflation will materially impact our costs of operation or the profitability of our products when marketed.
RECENTLY ISSUED FINANCIAL ACCOUNTING STANDARDS
In December 2004 the FASB issued revised SFAS No. 123 (revised 2004), Share-Based Payment (SFAS No. 123R), which replaces SFAS No. 123, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation, (SFAS 123) and supercedes APB Opinion No. 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees. SFAS 123R requires all share-based payments to employees, including grants of employee stock options, to be recognized in the financial statements based on their fair values beginning with the first interim or annual period after June 15, 2005, with early adoption encouraged. The pro forma disclosures previously permitted under SFAS 123 no longer will be an alternative to financial statement recognition. Global Med is currently required to adopt SFAS 123R in the third quarter of fiscal 2005, beginning July 1, 2005. Under SFAS 123R, Global Med must determine the appropriate fair value model to be used for valuing share-based payments, the amortization method for compensation cost and the transition method to be used at date of adoption. The transition methods include prospective and retroactive adoption options. Under the retroactive option, prior periods may be restated either as of the beginning of the year of adoption or for all periods presented. The prospective method requires that compensation expense be recorded for all unvested stock options and restricted stock at the beginning of the first quarter of adoption of SFAS 123R, while the retroactive methods would record compensation expense for all unvested stock options and restricted stock beginning with the first period restated. The Global Med is evaluating the requirements of SFAS 123R and expects that the adoption of SFAS 123R will have a material impact on the Companys consolidated results of operations and earnings per share. Global Med has not yet determined the method of adoption or the effect of adopting SFAS 123R, and it has not determined whether the adoption will result in amounts that are similar to the current pro forma disclosures under SFAS 123.
In December 2004 the FASB issued SFAS No. 153 "Exchanges of Nonmonetary Assets - An Amendment of APB Opinion No. 29." SFAS No. 153 amends APB Opinion No. 29 to eliminate the exception for nonmonetary exchanges of similar productive assets and replaces it with a general exception for exchanges of nonmonetary assets that do not have commercial substance. SFAS No. 153 is to be applied prospectively for nonmonetary exchanges occurring in fiscal periods beginning after June 15, 2005. Our adoption of SFAS No. 153 is not expected to have a material impact on our financial position or results of operations.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
Board of
Directors
Global Med Technologies, Inc. and subsidiary
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Global Med Technologies, Inc. and subsidiary as of December 31, 2005 and 2004, and the related consolidated statements of operations, stockholders' deficit and cash flows for the two years ended December 31, 2005 and 2004. These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.
We conducted our audits 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 consolidated 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 control over financial reporting. Our audit included 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. An audit 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 audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Global Med Technologies, Inc. and subsidiary as of December 31, 2005 and 2004, and the results of their operations and their cash flows for the two years ended December 31, 2005 and 2004 in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.

NOTE
1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS
On May 23, 1995, The Wyndgate Group, Limited (Wyndgate) merged with National MRO, Inc. (National MRO) and National MRO changed its name to Global Data Technologies, Inc., which subsequently changed its name to Global Med Technologies, Inc. (Global Med or the Company). Global Med provides information management software products and services to the health care industry. Wyndgate operates as a division of Global Med and designs, develops, markets and supports information management software products for blood banks, hospitals, centralized transfusion centers and other healthcare related facilities.
During 1999, Global Med formed a subsidiary, PeopleMed.com, Inc. (PeopleMed), a Colorado corporation, which is approximately 83% owned by the Company to develop a software application designed to give HMO providers and other third party payers access to clinical information for chronic disease patients. This application allows doctors and other medical employees access to a patients history. Approximately 11% of PeopleMed is owned by certain officers and directors of Global Med. The remaining 6% of PeopleMed common shares are owned by unaffiliated shareholders.
RELATED PARTIES AND RELATED PARTY ACTIVITY
Pursuant to a Stock Purchase Agreement, dated as of December 16, 2005 between the Company and Global Med International Limited (GMIL), the Companys outstanding debt with GMIL in the amount of $528,700, the outstanding Series AA Preferred Stock in the amount of $3.5 million, outstanding common shares numbering 4.360 million and the outstanding warrants to purchase 11.186 million shares of common stock were paid off, redeemed, or repurchased, respectively, for $8 million. In addition, the investors purchased 6.350 million common shares from GMIL directly. In addition all of the six members of the Companys Board of Directors nominated by GMIL resigned. As a result of the above, effective December 16, 2005, GMIL is no longer a considered a related party of the Company.
Prior to this, Global Med was financed primarily through lending arrangements with Global Med International Limited (GMIL). These lending arrangements were originated by eBanker USA.com, Inc., (eBanker) transferred, along with eBankers ownership in Global Med, to Global Med China & Asia Limited (GMCAL) in October 2002, and then the lending arrangements were transferred to GMIL in September 2003. Until November 28, 2001, eBanker was a consolidated subsidiary of eVision International, Inc. (eVision). eVision is majority owned by China Credit Holdings Limited (China Credit formerly Heng Fung Holdings Limited) and its subsidiaries, Online Credit Limited and Heng Fung Singapore Pte. Limited. Currently, GMCAL is a shareholder of Global Med. Until November 2001, eVision was also a shareholder of Global Med. eBanker through its subsidiary, GMCAL, is a shareholder of Global Med. Additionally, eVision and GMCAL each hold warrants to acquire 1 million and 11.186 million shares, respectively, of Global Meds common stock with exercise prices that range from $0.25-$0.50 per share. As discussed further below in the accompanying financial statements, in November 2000, eBanker and Global Med entered into a series of equity transactions that resulted in Global Med becoming a consolidated subsidiary of eBanker and eVision effective November 2000.
On November 28, 2001, the shareholders of eVision approved a transaction which transferred certain of the assets of eVision to Online Credit as satisfaction of the certain obligations eVision had with Online Credit. As a result, all of Global Meds common shares held by eVision and all eBankers common shares and warrants held by eVision were transferred to Online Credit. Consequently, as of November 28, 2001, Global Med remained a consolidated entity of eBanker for accounting purposes; however, eBanker was then directly controlled by Online Credit instead of eVision.
F-9
During 2005 and 2004, eVision provided the Company with various support services. In December 2005, the Company paid eVision $45 thousand for these support services dating back to February 2002. Prior to this, the Company had been accruing certain amounts related to estimated charges. As a result of this payment, the Company reversed in 2005 approximately $68 thousand in expenses associated with prior years estimated expenses. The Company recognized $21 thousand in payment during the year ended December 31, 2004. eVision expenses and the related credits were applied to general and administrative activities. As of December 31, 2005 and 2004, the Company had accrued $0 and $113 thousand, respectively, on the balance sheets related to these periods. During 2005 and 2004, the Company incurred $145 thousand and $229 thousand, respectively, in interest charges from related parties. Global Med International Holdings Limited (GMIHL) is a subsidiary of eBanker.
As of June 21, 2002, the Companys Board of Directors had independently approved loans to a related party totaling $370 thousand. During the year ended December 31, 2002, the Companys Notes Receivable, related party balance, increased $290 thousand to a total of $370 thousand as a result of funds advanced in the form of promissory notes to this entity controlled by a director, now formerly a director, of the Company, Jeff Busch. The notes bear interest at 12% per year and mature in 2006. During the year ended December 31, 2001, the Company had lent $80 thousand to this entity. In addition, the CEO and Chairman of Global Med, Michael I. Ruxin, was also on the board of directors of this entity controlled by Jeff Busch. Dr. Ruxin resigned as a director of the related entity effective December 12, 2002. Jeff Busch resigned his position as a director of the Company and PeopleMed effective December 12, 2002. As a result, Jeff Busch and the entity controlled by Jeff Busch are no longer related parties of the Company. On March 10, 2003 the Companys Board of Directors approved and subsequently funded additional loans to the entity controlled by Jeff Busch in the amount of $30 thousand.
Prior to the fourth quarter of 2003, the Company had a valuation allowance on all of the interest income associated with the note receivable discussed above. Although the financial status of the entity that was lent the $400 thousand notes receivable did not warrant a reserve for the principal amount of the notes receivable because the Company believed no impairment existed, no interest income was recognized prior to the fourth quarter of 2003. Subsequent to the year ended December 31, 2003, the Company, which prior to this had not received any monies from the entity to whom the note receivable was lent, received $42 thousand from this entity for services to be performed. Based on the improvements in the entities financial status and the receipt of monies from the entity, the Company effectively removed the valuation allowance from the interest income on the note receivable. The Company recognized $48 thousand in interest on this note receivable during the year ended December 31, 2004. During 2005, the Company received certain external information that made the Company believe that setting up a reserve for the entire amount of the notes receivable and accrued interest was necessary. As a result, the Company established a 100% reserve for $400 thousand in notes receivables and $165 thousand in accrued interest that were on the Companys balance sheet as of December 31, 2005.
As a result of these transactions and relationships, the financial condition and results of operations of Global Med may not necessarily be indicative of those that would have resulted if Global Med were unaffiliated with the related party entities mentioned above.
BASIS OF CONSOLIDATION
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Global Med and its majority-owned subsidiary. Intercompany accounts and transactions are eliminated in consolidation. There is no minority interest reflected in the consolidated balance sheets at December 31, 2005 and 2004 because PeopleMed had a stockholders deficit.
USE OF ESTIMATES
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires the Companys 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.
F-10
CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS
For purposes of the accompanying financial statements, the Company considers all highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less when purchased to be cash equivalents.
CREDIT RISK AND MARKET RISK
Accounts receivable at December 31, 2005 and 2004 are derived primarily from SafeTrace and from SafeTrace Tx sales and related services to blood centers and blood center service providers located in the United States and internationally. The International amounts are not material. Historically, the Company has not required collateral or other security to support customer receivables. In order to reduce credit risk, the Company requires substantial down payments and progress payments during the course of an installation of its software products. The Company establishes allowances for doubtful accounts based upon factors surrounding the credit risk specific to customers.
The Company has customers located in numerous locations across the United States and Puerto Rico and sales are not concentrated in any geographic or economic region. The Company also has international customers in Africa and Canada. PeopleMeds customer is located in the State of Colorado.
ALLOWANCE FOR UNCOLLECTIBLE ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLES AND ACCRUED REVENUES
The Company regularly evaluates the collectibility of its trade accounts receivable and unbilled receivables balances based on a combination of factors. The Company establishes a general reserve for accounts receivable. In addition, when a customers account becomes past due, the Company initiates dialogue with the customer to determine the cause. If it is determined that the customer will be unable to meet its financial obligation, such as in the case of a bankruptcy filing, deterioration in the customers operating results or financial position or other material events impacting their business, the Company records a specific reserve for bad debt to reduce the related receivable to the amount it expects to recover given all information presently available. The Company also records reserves for bad debt for all other customers based on certain other factors including the length of time the receivables are past due and historical collection experience with individual customers. If circumstances related to specific customers change, our estimates of the recoverability of receivables could materially change. The Companys allowance for uncollectible accounts receivable and unbilled receivables totaled $143 thousand and $113 thousand respectively, at December 31, 2005 and 2004 and is included on the consolidated balance sheet as a reduction of accounts receivable and accrued revenues.
ALLOWANCE FOR NOTES RECEIVABLE AND ACCRUED INTEREST
The Company evaluates the collectibility of its notes receivable and the related accrued interest. During the three months ended December 31, 2005, the Company determined that its notes receivable and the related accrued interest of $565 thousand were impaired. As a result, the Company set up a reserve for the entire amount of the notes receivable and accrued interest during this period. The Company is in the process of attempting to renegotiate the notes receivable term and extend it for an additional five years. In the event the parties to the notes receivable eventually are able to repay some or all of the outstanding balance of the notes receivable and accrued interest, the Company could potentially recognize a gain ranging between $0 and $565 thousand, as of December 31, 2005.
SUMMARY JUDGMENT DEPOSIT
In September 2002, Global Med filed a lawsuit against Donnie L. Jackson, Jr., Global Meds former Vice President of Sales and Marketing. Global Med alleges, among other things, that prior to his resignation in July 2002 Mr. Jackson misappropriated certain trade secrets of Global Med. After leaving Global Med, Mr. Jackson became a management employee of one of Global Meds competitors. On March 30, 2005, the Superior Court of the State of California in and for the County of El Dorado granted the motion for summary judgment for Donnie L. Jackson, Jr.
F-11
On September 1, 2005, the Company deposited $1.004 million with the Superior Court in the State of California in the County of El Dorado. This deposit represents potential fees and attorneys costs the Company could be required to pay in the event the Company does not prevail on appeal. The $1.004 million is classified as a Deposit in escrow on the Companys balance sheet as of December 31, 2005. Based on external evidence, the Company has determined that it is more likely than not that the Company will be required to pay the $1.004 million that is currently classified as a Deposit in escrow. As a result, the Company expensed the amount of the Deposit in escrow and set up a liability for $1.004 million in the form of Litigation accrual as of December 31, 2005. The Company is currently appealing the judges decision and in the event the Company prevails, the Company may be refunded the $1.004 million deposit or a portion thereof. In the event the Company prevails, the Company could recognize a reduction in expenses ranging between $0 and $1.004 million, as of December 31, 2005.
EQUIPMENT, FURNITURE AND FIXTURES
Equipment, furniture and fixtures are stated at cost. Depreciation and amortization, which includes amortization of assets under capital leases, is based on the straight-line method over estimated useful lives ranging from three to five years.
SOFTWARE DEVELOPMENT COSTS
In accordance with the provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standard (SFAS) No. 86, Accounting for the Costs of Computer Software to be Sold, Leased or Otherwise Marketed, the Company capitalizes software development and production costs once technological feasibility has been achieved. Software development costs incurred prior to achieving technological feasibility are included in research and development expense in the accompanying statements of operations.
Capitalized software development costs are reported at the lower of unamortized cost or net realizable value. Commencing upon the initial product release or when software development revenue has begun to be recognized, these costs are amortized, based on current and future revenue for each product with an annual minimum equal to the straight-line amortization over the remaining estimated economic life of the product, generally three to four years. For the years ended December 31, 2005 and 2004, the Company recorded approximately $13 thousand, and $37 thousand, of amortization, of software development costs, respectively.
During the years ended December 31, 2005 and 2004, the Company did not capitalize any costs related to SafeTrace Tx. The Company discontinued capitalizing costs related to this product because the remaining period for amortizing software development costs was less than one year. The Company does not expect to begin capitalizing software development costs for its products in the near future.
NONCOMPETE AGREEMENTS
In 1996, the Company entered into non-compete agreements with certain key employees. The provisions of these non-compete agreements with these employees have expired. At December 31, 2005 and 2004, $35 thousand remains payable whenever sufficient cash flow, as defined, is available as determined by the Companys Board of Directors.
INCOME TAXES
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. 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. A valuation allowance is required to the extent any deferred tax assets may not be realizable.
F-12
FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
The fair value of a financial instrument represents the amount at which the instrument could be exchanged in a current transaction between willing parties, other than in a forced sale or liquidation. Significant differences can arise between the fair value and carrying amount of financial instruments that are recognized at historical cost amounts. The fair value of the Companys debt instruments approximates fair value based on the Companys current incremental borrowing rates for similar types of borrowing arrangements. Also, the carrying amounts of the Companys financial assets approximate fair value due to the short-term maturities of these items.
The fair value of derivative financial instruments, all of which relate to the issuance of the Companys common stock upon conversion or redemption of convertible preferred stock and the exercise of related warrants, is estimated using the Black Scholes pricing model and assumptions related to the estimated term of those instruments, the volatility of the price of the Companys common stock, interest rates and the probability of such conversion or redemption.
DERIVATIVE FINANCIAL INTSTRUMENTS
The Series A Convertible Preferred Stock and related warrants include certain terms, conditions and features which are separately accounted for as embedded derivative liabilities at estimated fair value. The determination of fair value includes significant estimates by management including the term of the instruments, volatility of the price of the Companys common stock, interest rates and the probability of conversion, redemption or a future dilutive financing transaction, among other items. The fluctuations in estimated fair value may be significant from period-to-period which, in turn, may have a significant impact on the Companys reported financial condition and results of operations.
REVENUE RECOGNITION
The Company recognizes revenue in accordance with the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants Statement of Position (SOP) No. 97-2, Software Revenue Recognition.
The Companys standard software license agreement for the Companys products provides for an initial fee to use the product in perpetuity up to a maximum number of users. Fees from software licenses are recognized as revenue upon shipment, provided fees are fixed and determinable and collection is probable. Fees from licenses sold together with consulting services are generally recognized upon shipment provided that the above criteria have been met, payment of the license fees is not dependent upon the performance of the consulting services and the consulting services are not essential to the functionality of the licensed software. In instances in which the consulting services are not essential to the functionality of the software but payment of the license fee is due at the earlier of the performance of specific consulting services or the passage of time, the license fee is recognized ratably over the anticipated period of performance of the services or ratably over the license fee billing period, whichever is more readily determinable.
For arrangements with multiple elements, we allocate revenue to each element of a transaction based upon its fair value as determined by vendor specific objective evidence. Vendor specific objective evidence of fair value for all elements of an arrangement is based upon the normal pricing and discounting practices for those products and services when sold separately. We may modify our pricing practices in the future, which could result in changes in our vendor specific objective evidence of fair value for these undelivered elements. As a result, our future revenue recognition for multi-element arrangements could differ significantly from our historical results.
If an arrangement does not qualify for separate accounting of the software license and consulting transactions, then new software license revenue is generally recognized together with the consulting services based on contract accounting using the percentage-of-completion method. Contract accounting is generally applied to arrangements when services include significant modification or customization of the software. Progress towards completion is generally measured based on hours incurred versus projected total hours. The projected costs associated with contract accounting are accrued at rates consistent with the revenue recognized under percentage of completion.
Certain of the Companys contracts include warranties that provide for refunds of all or a portion of the software license and or other fees in the event that the Company is unable to provide maintenance services, for which there is a separate fee, for the contractually prescribed period. Contracts with these provisions are accounted for in accordance with the policies above.
The Company provides consulting services that include implementation, training and the performance of other services to its customers. Revenue from such services is generally recognized ratably over the period during which the applicable service is to be performed. In addition, the Company may recognize certain implementation revenues based on the hourly rates in effect on the contract multiplied by the number of hours completed.
F-13
Support agreements generally call for the Company to provide technical support and software updates, on a when-and-if-available basis to customers. Revenue on technical support and software update rights is recognized ratably over the term of the support agreement.
Revenues from the re-sale of hardware and software, obtained from vendors, are recognized at the time the hardware and software are delivered to customers.
PeopleMed has contracts that include fixed fee and per-member fees. The Company recognizes revenues from these contracts as services are provided.
During the year ended December 31, 2004, the Company signed an agreement whereby the Company was paid $265 thousand to terminate an agreement. The Company recognized approximately $145 thousand in maintenance revenue during the year ended December 31, 2004, as a result of this agreement. In addition, general and administrative expenses were reduced by the remainder.
RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT
Research and development costs are charged to expense as incurred. Research and development funding by others is deferred and offset against capitalizable costs. Funded research and development in excess of capitalizable costs is recognized as contract research and development when the related product is ready for commercial release.
SIGNIFICANT CUSTOMERS
During the years ended December 31, 2005 and 2004, there were no customers who accounted for more than 10% of the Companys revenues.
LOSS PER COMMON SHARE
Basic loss per common share excludes dilution and is computed by dividing the net loss by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the periods presented. Diluted net loss per common share reflects the potential dilution of securities that could participate in the earnings unless their effort is antidilutive. Stock options, warrants outstanding and their equivalents are included in diluted computations through the treasury stock method unless they are antidilutive. Convertible securities are included in diluted computations through the if converted method unless they are antidilutive. Common share equivalents are excluded from the computation, as their effect would be antidilutive. For the years ended December 31, 2005 and 2004 approximately 21.6 million and 9.6 million, equivalent dilutive securities (primarily convertible preferred stock, common stock options, and warrants), respectively, have been excluded from the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding for the diluted net loss per share computations as they are antidilutive.
STOCK BASED COMPENSATION
At December 31, 2005 the Company has several stock-based compensation plans, which are described more fully in Notes 6 and 7. The Company has adopted the disclosure method provisions of SFAS No. 123, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation. As permitted under SFAS No. 123, the Company continues to account for stock-based compensation for awards to employees under the intrinsic value based method of accounting as prescribed by Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25 (APB No. 25), Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees. Stock based compensation paid to consultants and other non-employees is accounted for at fair value under the provisions of SFAS No. 123. In December 2002, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 148, Accounting for Stock-Based CompensationTransition and Disclosure (SFAS 148), which provides for alternative methods to transition to the fair value method of accounting for stock options in accordance with provisions of FASB Statement No. 123, Accounting for Stock Based Compensation. In addition, SFAS 148 requires disclosure of the effects of an entitys accounting policy with respect to stock-based compensation on reported net income and earnings per share in annual and interim financial statements. The transition provisions of SFAS 148 are currently not applicable to us as we continue to account for stock-based compensation in accordance with Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25.

Had compensation cost for the Companys stock-based compensation plans been determined consistent with SFAS No. 123, the Companys pro forma amounts would have been as indicated in $(000s) except per share data:

The estimated value of the total options granted during the years ended December 31, 2005 and 2004 were $3.9 million and $165 thousand, respectively.
The estimated fair value compensation expense associated with the options granted during 2005 and 2004, and their respective portions vesting were $2.409 million and $13 thousand, respectively, for the years ended December 31, 2005 and 2004.
The weighted-average estimated fair value of employee stock options granted during 2005 and 2004 were $1.18 and $0.55 per share, respectively. For purposes of pro forma disclosures, the estimated fair value of the options is amortized to expense during the vesting period which could range from immediate vesting to nine years.
RECENTLY ISSUED FINANCIAL ACCOUNTING STANDARDS
In December 2004 the FASB issued revised SFAS No. 123 (revised 2004), "Share-Based Payment" ("SFAS No. 123R"), which replaces SFAS No. 123, "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation," ("SFAS 123") and supercedes APB Opinion No. 25, "Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees." SFAS 123R requires all share-based payments to employees, including grants of employee stock options, to be recognized in the financial statements based on their fair values beginning with the first interim or annual period after June 15, 2005, with early adoption encouraged. The pro forma disclosures previously permitted under SFAS 123 no longer will be an alternative to financial statement recognition. Global Med is currently required to adopt SFAS 123R in the third quarter of fiscal 2005, beginning July 1, 2005. Under SFAS 123R, Global Med must determine the appropriate fair value model to be used for valuing share-based payments, the amortization method for compensation cost and the transition method to be used at date of adoption. The transition methods include prospective and retroactive adoption options. Under the retroactive option, prior periods may be restated either as of the beginning of the year of adoption or for all periods presented. The prospective method requires that compensation expense be recorded for all unvested stock options and restricted stock at the beginning of the first quarter of adoption of SFAS 123R, while the retroactive methods would record compensation expense for all unvested stock options and restricted stock beginning with the first period restated. Global Med is evaluating the requirements of SFAS 123R and expects that the adoption of SFAS 123R will have a material impact on the Companys consolidated results of operations and earnings per share.
F-15
Global Med has not yet determined the method of adoption for SFAS 123R. The Company currently estimates that the adoption of SFAS 123R will have a material impact on the financial results for the next several years. The Company currently estimates that for options granted as of December 31, 2005 that the Company will recognize expenses related to grants to employees, officers, and directors that range from $100 thousand to $150 thousand for 2006 and 2007, respectively, and approximately $250 thousand in 2008. Additional option grants to employees, directors or officers after December 31, 2005 could significantly increase the expenses associated with recognizing option grants in accordance with SFAS 123R. Actual results could vary materially from these current estimates.

Certain reclassifications have been made to the 2004 financial statement to conform to the 2005 presentation.
NOTE 2. FINANCING AGREEMENTS, RELATED PARTY
Financing Agreements with Related Parties
Debt Conversion
Pursuant to a Stock Purchase Agreement, dated as of December 16, 2005 between the Company and Global Med International Limited ("GMIL"), the Companys outstanding debt with GMIL in the amount of $528,700 was paid off, the outstanding Series AA Preferred Stock in the amount of $3.5 million were redeemed, and outstanding common shares numbering 4,860,195 and warrants numbering 11,186,430 were redeemed. A table outlining the instruments acquired from GMIL is located in footnote 6.
A history of the financing agreements with related parties is located in the Company's audited financial statements on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2004.
NOTE 3. RISKS AND UNCERTAINTIES
Global Med designs, develops, markets and supports information management software products for blood banks, hospitals, centralized transfusion centers and other healthcare related facilities. Global Med currently has customers and recognizes revenues from its proprietary products. However, the number of customers and levels of revenue have not been sufficient for Global Med to attain profitable operations. Global Med has incurred significant cumulative operating losses. Additionally, Global Med currently has an accumulated shareholders' deficit. Although the Company believes that it may be profitable in 2006 and beyond and have positive cash flows from operations on an annual basis, the ultimate success of Global Med is dependent upon a number of factors such as increasing market acceptance of its products, the addition of significant new customers and maintaining effective cost controls, none of which is assured.
NOTE 4. INCOME TAXES
The Company has net operating loss carry forwards of approximately $23.5 million which expire in the years 2008 to 2025, all of which is subject to limitation under Section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code due to the various changes in equity ownership during 2005, 2000 and 1999.

In assessing the realizability of deferred tax assets, management concluded that it is not more likely than not that the deferred tax assets would not be realized. The ultimate realization of the deferred tax assets is dependent on the generation of future taxable income in the period in which the temporary differences become deductible. The Company has established a valuation allowance for deferred taxes due to the uncertainty that the deferred tax assets will be utilized.

NOTE 6. STOCKHOLDERS EQUITY AND MEZZANINE EQUITY
Sale of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock and Detachable Warrants
On December 16, 2005, pursuant to the terms of the Securities Purchase Agreement, the Company sold $9.975 million of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock (Series A) and warrants to certain investors. The Company received net proceeds of $9.590 million for the Series A. There are 100 thousand Series A authorized and 9,975 shares of Series A outstanding with a stated value of $1 thousand per share. The $9.975 million in Series A is convertible at the holders option into common shares at $0.72 per share based on the Series As stated value. The conversion price of the Series A and the related warrants is subject to reset, under certain circumstances, if the Company issues common stock or common stock equivalents at a price below $0.72 per share. The Series A is presently convertible into 13.854 million shares of common stock at any time and does not have voting rights. The Series A has preference in liquidation over the Companys common stock. The stated value represents the liquidation value. The Series A shares are subject to redemption based on the occurrence of certain conditional events, some of which are considered to be outside of the Companys control. Primarily based on these redemption features, the Series A has been recorded as mezzanine equity. The Company cannot issue dividends on the common stock while the Series A is outstanding unless an equal dividend is declared on the Series A. The dividend on the Series A would be calculated by determining the number of common shares the Series A is convertible into and then applying the same dividend to the Series A that was provided to the common shareholders. The holders of the Series A also received warrants to purchase 10.391 million common shares that can be exercised at $0.72 per share. These warrants have a cashless exercise feature and have a five-year term.
The following table summarizes the unregistered securities that were issued by the Company in conjunction with the above transaction.

Series A Convertible Preferred Stock | 9,975 | 13,854,167 | |||
Detachable Warrants | 10,390,625 | 10,390,625 |
The Company can force conversion of the Series A provided the following have occurred:
o |
The Companys stock has traded at or above a weighted average price of $3.50 per share for 20 consecutive trading days, |
F-18
o |
The trading volume of the Companys common stock has averaged at least 150 thousand shares per day for 20 consecutive days trading days, and |
o |
The common share ownership of the holder of the Series A after conversion would not represent more than 4.99% of the Companys outstanding common stock after conversion. |
The number of common shares the Series A is convertible into will be included in the calculation of diluted common shares outstanding in the event that the inclusion of these common share equivalents has a dilutive effect. The agreement for the purchase of Series A requires the Company to register the common shares underlying the warrants and the Series A. The Series A does not have a dividend. In the event the registration statement underlying the Series A and the related securities is not declared effective within 240 days, the Company may be required to pay a dividend of 18% on the Series A. As of the date this Form 10-KSB was filed, the Company had received notification that the registration statement for the common shares underlying the Series A and the warrants had been declared effective. In addition to the conditions above, there are certain circumstances which could require the Company to pay a penalty on the Series A of up to 4% per month, but not to exceed 24%. These circumstances include but are not limited to failure of the Company to obtain registration of the common shares underlying the warrants and Series A within 155 days of the Series A transaction date which was December 16, 2005. The Company believes that the penalties on the Series A of up to 24% do not exceed the difference between the value of a registered and unregistered share of the Companys common shares.
The Company accounted for the Series A based on its stated value. The Company accounted for the warrants based on an allocation of their relative value from the stated value of the Series A. In addition, the Company recognized financing costs of $11.032 million associated with the embedded derivatives of the Series A and the related warrants.
On December 16, 2005, the date the Company entered into the transaction to sell the Series A, the price of the Companys common stock was $1.15 per share and the conversion price was $0.72 per share. As a result of the conversion feature on the Series A, the Company recognized a deemed dividend to the Series A holders in the amount of approximately $9.975 million.
As discussed more fully in Note 8, the Series A and the related warrants have certain freestanding embedded derivative financial instruments requiring separate accounting treatment under Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 133 Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities (SFAS 133). The total fair value of the derivatives on December 16, 2005 was determined to be approximately $16.959 million and, accordingly, the entire $9.975 stated value of the Series A has been allocated to those derivative instruments. In addition, because the fair value of the derivatives exceeded the carrying value of the Series A, the Company recorded a charge for other financing costs equal to the excess value, in the amount of $11.032 million, upon consummation of the Series A transaction.
For a period of one year from the effective date of the registration statement underlying the common shares on the Series A and the warrants, the holders of the Series A are entitled to up to 100% participation in any financing arrangements. In addition, until the 90 days after the effective date of the registration statement for the common shares underlying the Series A and related warrants, the Company may not enter into equity sales or issue options unless they are to employees, officers or directors of the Company.
Sales of Common Stock
Private Placements
During the year ended December 31, 2004, the Company received net proceeds of $549 thousand from the sale of 1.525 million shares of unregistered common stock. The price per share price was $0.40. The Company filed a Form S-1 registration statement to register these shares on December 6, 2004 and this registration statement went effective in May 2005. As a result of the private placement, the Company incurred issuance costs of approximately $61 thousand. In addition, the Company issued 125 thousand warrants to purchase unregistered common shares of the Companys stock at $0.40 per share as part of this transaction. The Company used the proceeds of the private placement for general working capital purposes.
F-19
Preferred Stock
Series AA
On December 16, 2005, the Company redeemed all of the outstanding Series AA Convertible Redeemable Preferred Stock. The Series AA Convertible Preferred Stock was redeemed using the proceeds from the sale of the Series A.
The following financial instruments held by GMIL or their affiliates were repurchased by the Company for $8 million in conjunction with this transaction:

Common Shares | $3,061,922 | 4,860,195 | |||
Debt | $ 528,700 | N/A |
On December 16, 2005, in conjunction with the purchase of the Series A, the investors purchased 6,350,000 registered common shares directly from GMIL for $4 million.
On April 14, 2004 GMIL and Global Med amended their existing financing agreements and entered into an agreement to convert a portion of the outstanding debt totaling $3.5 million into 3.5 million shares of Series AA Convertible Redeemable Preferred Stock, as discussed in Note 11 in the Form 10-K in the audited financial statements for the period ended December 31, 2003. For the period from March 1, 2004 through February 28, 2005, the Series AA Preferred Stock has a dividend yield of 15%. On March 1, 2005, the dividend rate on the Series AA Preferred Stock increases from 15% to 21%. During October 2004, the Company made one dividend payment in the amount of approximately $131,000. The remainder of the accrued dividend for the period from March 1, 2004 through February 28, 2005 will be paid in 2005. During 2005, the cash dividends are mandatory and due and payable on March 1, June 1, September 1, and December 1 during each quarter the Series AA Preferred Stock is outstanding. The Series AA Preferred Stock can be converted by GMIL into common stock of the Company at any time at a conversion rate of (2.222) shares of common stock for each share of Series AA Preferred Stock. Therefore, the Series AA Preferred Stock is convertible into approximately 7.777 million common shares. At any time after March 1, 2006, the Series AA Preferred Stock is redeemable at GMILs option at $1 per share. The Series AA Preferred Stock is mandatorily redeemable on March 1, 2009. If the cash dividends on the Series AA Preferred Stock are not paid within thirty (30) days after the end of the quarter, at GMILs option, GMIL will be paid in additional Series AA Preferred Stock equal to the value of the outstanding dividend, or common stock at the closing market price for ten (10) days preceding GMILs election.
The Series AA Preferred Stock can be converted into common stock at GMILs option, and GMIL is not able to force redemption of the Series AA Preferred Stock until March 1, 2006. The Company has classified the Series AA Preferred Stock as Mezzanine Equity in these financial statements. The Company will be required to review the classification of the Series AA Preferred Stock on a quarterly basis to determine if the classification as Mezzanine Equity remains appropriate. Such review could result in the Preferred Stock being reclassified as debt prior to March 1, 2006.
F-20
Series BB
On April 14, 2004, the Companys Chairman and CEO, Michael I. Ruxin, M.D., agreed to convert his outstanding accrued vacation and accrued wages as of February 29, 2004, with a book value of approximately $284 thousand, into approximately 675 thousand shares of Series BB Preferred Stock (Series BB). The Series BB has the following terms:
o |
Each Series BB share is convertible into one common share at the option of the holder if Global Meds common stock closing price reaches $0.75 per share on any day. During the third quarter ended September 30, 2004, the Companys stock closed above $0.75 per share, and the Series BB became convertible into the Companys common stock upon written notice by Dr. Ruxin. As a result, the Company recorded a dividend of $28 thousand associated with the beneficial conversion feature associated with the Series BB. |
o |
The Series BB is junior to the Series AA and senior to the common stock of the Company and has a liquidation preference of $0.42 per share. |
All of the Series BB Preferred Stock were converted into 675 thousand shares of common stock on December 13, 2004.
Common Stock Purchase Agreement
On December 16, 2005, the Company entered into a Termination Agreement with Fusion Capital Fund II, LLC, pursuant to which the Company and Fusion Capital mutually agreed to terminate the Common Stock Purchase Agreement, dated March 16, 2005, by and between the Company and Fusion Capital. As part of the termination of the Common Stock Purchase Agreement, Fusion Capital received $575 thousand in Series A. Fusion Capital had provided the Company with $450 thousand in cash proceeds during the nine months ended September 30, 2005, and these proceeds were originally to be applied towards the purchase of common stock in conjunction with the Common Stock Purchase Agreement. As a result, the Company allocated the $ 450 thousand in proceeds previously received from Fusion Capital towards the purchase of the $575 thousand in Series A.
On October 8, 2004, the Company entered into a common stock purchase agreement (Purchase Agreement) with Fusion Capital Fund II, LLC (Fusion Capital), a Chicago based institutional investor, whereby Fusion Capital has agreed to purchase up to $8.0 million of common stock over a 32-month period. Specifically, after the Securities & Exchange Commission has declared effective a registration statement, each month Global Med has the right to sell to Fusion Capital $12,500 of its common stock, per trading day, at a purchase price based upon the market price of Global Meds common stock on the date of each sale without any fixed discount to the market price. The Purchase Agreement with Fusion Capital allows the Company to increase Fusions daily purchase of common stock beyond the $12,500 amount under certain circumstances. For each $0.10 increase in the price of the Companys common stock over $0.75, the Company will have the right but not obligation, to increase the amount purchased by Fusion Capital by $2,500 per day. At the Companys sole option, Fusion Capital can be required to purchase lesser or greater amounts of common stock, within certain ranges, each month up to $8.0 million in the aggregate. The Company has the right to control the timing and the amount of stock sold to Fusion Capital. Global Med also has the right to terminate the agreement at any time without any additional cost. Fusion Capital has agreed not to engage in any direct or indirect short selling or hedging of the common stock in any manner whatsoever.
As part of the execution of the Purchase Agreement, the Company issued approximately 487 thousand shares of restricted common stock to Fusion Capital prior to the any purchase of registered shares. In addition, under the terms of the Purchase Agreement, the Company is required to reserve 10 million shares for issuance to Fusion Capital. As Fusion Capital purchases the 10 million shares, the Company will be required to issue an additional 487 thousand shares of common stock ratably as these shares are purchased. The Board of Directors of the Company approved this transaction on September 28, 2004.
F-21
On July 7, 2004, the Company executed a preliminary agreement (Preliminary Agreement) with Fusion Capital as a precursor to the Purchase Agreement. As part of the Preliminary Agreement, the Company issued 50 thousand restricted shares of common stock. In addition, the Company agreed to reimburse Fusion Capital for $15 thousand in expenses associated with the transaction discussed above. The Company paid Fusion Capital the $15 thousand in October 2004. The 487 thousand common shares due to Fusion Capital were considered constructively issued on October 8, 2004. The 537 thousand common shares issued to Fusion Capital were valued at $309 thousand based on the market value of the common shares on the constructive date of issuance. In conjunction with the termination of Fusion Capitals common stock purchase agreement, the Company netted the value of the remaining shares in prepaid expenses against the proceeds received. This amount was in prepaid expenses and other assets and was considered deferred offering costs on the Companys December 31, 2004 balance sheet. Originally, the Company intended on reducing the value of these common shares on a pro rata basis as Fusion Capital purchased common shares under the terms of the Purchase Agreement. In conjunction with the termination of Fusion Capitals common stock purchase agreement, the Company netted the value of the remaining shares in prepaid expenses against the proceeds received from Fusion for the Series A.
The Company agreed to provide a third party with 50 thousand warrants to purchase the same number of common shares of the Company with the execution of the Purchase Agreement. The warrants are priced at $0.57 per share, the closing price of the Companys stock on the date of execution of the Purchase Agreement, October 8, 2004, and expire on October 8, 2009. These warrants were valued at $29 thousand. In addition, the Company issued five-year warrants to purchase 400 thousand shares of the Companys common stock at $0.49 per share. These warrants were exercisable after the Company begins to receive funding under the Purchase Agreement, and then only on a pro rata basis as the Company received up to $4 million in equity funding. In conjunction with the termination of Fusion Capitals Purchase Agreement, the Company cancelled 392,500 of the 400,000 warrants.
Options and Warrants Exercised
During the year ended December 31, 2005, 232 thousand options were exercised and the Company received $171 thousand in cash proceeds. No warrants were exercised during 2005. During the year ended December 31, 2004, 25 thousand options and 125 thousand warrants were exercised to purchase the same number of the Companys common shares. The Company received $67 thousand related to the exercise of these options and warrants.
NOTE 7. STOCK OPTION PLANS, WARRANTS, AND STOCK COMPENSATION PLAN
The Second Amended and Restated 1997 Stock Option Plan (Plan) provides for the issuance of options to purchase up to 2.2 million registered shares of common stock to employees, officers, directors and consultants of the Company.

During 2005, the Company issued 3.131 million stock options, 35 thousand were exercised, and 20 thousand options were cancelled under the 2001 Plan.
F-22
In June 2003, the Companys Board of Directors approved the 2003 Stock Option Plan (2003 Plan). The 2003 Plan provides for the issuance of stock options exercisable to purchase up to 5 million shares of the Companys common stock to employees, officers, directors and consultants. As of December 31, 2005, there were options to purchase 4.435 million shares under the 2003 Plan that were issued to such persons. The Company filed an S-8 registration statement to register the 5 million shares issuable under the 2003 Plan in May 2004. The range of the exercise prices for these options is $0.45 to $1.50 per share. The weighted-average exercise price of these options is $0.68 per share. All of these options were exercisable as of December 31, 2005.
The Company also periodically grants options to purchase shares of restricted common stock. The shares underlying these options are not registered under the 1933 Act. As of December 31, 2005, there were options to purchase 385 thousand shares of common stock at a weighted average exercise price of $1.90 per share through 2005 were outstanding, of which all were exercisable at December 31, 2005.
During 2005, the Company issued approximately 563 thousand options to consultants and recognized approximately $251 thousand in expenses associated with these grants.

On December 16, 2005, the Company elected to accelerate the vesting on certain employee options that were to vest in 2006 and 2007. As a result of this accelerated vesting, the Company recognized approximately $521 thousand in compensation expense during the fourth quarter of 2005. The decision to accelerate the vesting was done in order to reward the Companys existing employees for their loyalty and hard work. In the event these options are exercised, this will result in additional cash for the Company. In addition, by accelerating the vesting on these options in 2005, the Company will be expensing these options under the rules in effect when these options were granted versus the accounting rules that are effect in 2006.
During 2005, the Company recognized approximately $8 thousand in expenses related to stock options issued as of December 31, 2004.

Mr. Cook resigned as Acting Principal Financial and Accounting Officer and Treasurer in February of 2004.
NOTE 8. DERIVATIVE FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
In connection with the issuance of the Series A and the related warrants (see Note 6), the Company evaluated the terms and conditions of both instruments, and the related warrants, in order to determine whether such terms and conditions and warrants represent embedded or freestanding derivative instruments under the provisions of SFAS 133 and Emerging Issues Task Force issue No. 00-19, Accounting for Derivative Financial Instruments Indexed to, and Potentially Settled in a Companys Own Stock (EITF 00-19). As a result of these evaluations, the Company has determined that certain features of the Series A that are deemed to be embedded derivatives. These features are as follows:
o | Conversion feature; |
o | Variable number of shares to be issued upon certain triggering events; |
o | Anti-dilution clause, and |
o | Change in control redemption premium clause |
The warrants related to the Series A contain an anti-dilution clause which is deemed to be an embedded derivative. The embedded derivatives are accounted for on a bundled basis in accordance with SFAS 133 Implementation Issue No. B-15.
The estimated fair value of the derivative instruments at inception (the date at which all significant financial terms were finalized) and December 31, 2005 are as follows:
December 16, 2005 | December 31, 2005 | ||||
---|---|---|---|---|---|
Series A: | |||||
Conversion Feature | $15,932 | $14,270 | |||
Variable Number of Shares | 283 | 253 | |||
Anti-Dilution | 321 | 321 | |||
Change in Control | 125 | 125 | |||
16,661 | 14,969 | ||||
Warrants: | |||||
Anti-Dilution | 298 | 298 | |||
Total | $16,959 | $15,267 | |||
|
|
The net change in estimated fair value for the period from December 16, 2005 to December 31, 2005 is included as a benefit in the statement of operations and totaled $1.692 million for the year ended December 31, 2005.
The embedded derivatives for the conversion feature and the issuance of a variable number of shares related to the Series A were valued using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model in a manner similar to a call option. The anti-dilution feature for the Series A and the warrants were valued using the Black Scholes put valuation model. The following assumptions were used for valuing the Black Scholes option and put pricing models and then a probability weight was added to each embedded derivative:
Series A Embedded Derivative |
|||||||
---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
December 16, 2005 |
December 31, 2005 |
||||||
Estimated dividends | | | |||||
Expected volatility | 320 | % | 320 | % | |||
Risk-free interest rate | 4.4 | 7% | 4.4 | 7% | |||
Estimated term (years) | 10 | 10 | |||||
Probability Weights | |||||||
Beneficial conversion | 100 | % | 100 | % | |||
Variable number of shares to be issued | |||||||
upon certain triggering events | 6 | % | 6 | % | |||
Anti-dilution clause | 5 | % | 5 | % | |||
Related Warrant Embedded Derivatives |
|||||||
December 16, 2005 |
December 31, 2005 |
||||||
Estimated dividends | | | |||||
Expected volatility | 243 | % | 243 | % | |||
Risk-free interest rate | 4.3 | 9% | 4.3 | 9% | |||
Contractual term (years) | 5 | 5 | |||||
Probability Weights | |||||||
Anti-dilution clause | 5 | % | 5 | % | |||
The probability of the beneficial conversion was weighted as 100% because conversion is completely within the control of the Series A holders. The probability for the issuance of a variable number was assessed by reviewing the specific events that would lead to the issuance of a variable number of additional shares and then accumulating the probability weights of these items. The anti-dilution clause probability was assessed by reviewing the specific circumstances that would require the issuance of common stock equivalents at a price below $0.72 per share. The Company believes that this is highly unlikely given the Companys current circumstances. The change in control provision was valued using the premium attached to the change in control provision and then probability weighted at 5%.

NOTE 9. CONTRIBUTIONS TO RETIREMENT PLAN
The Company has a 401(k) retirement plan which covers eligible employees, as defined, of the Company (the 401(k) Plan). Employees may defer up to fifteen percent of their annual compensation up to the maximum amount as determined by the Internal Revenue Service. Under the 401(k) Plan, the Company, at its discretion, may make contributions to the plan. No Company contributions were made to the 401(k) Plan in 2005 or 2004.
NOTE 10. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
The Company has certain operating and capital lease obligations outstanding as of December 31, 2005. The obligations associated with these operating and capital leases are more fully described in note 5.
In September 2002, Global Med filed a lawsuit against Donnie L. Jackson, Jr., Global Meds former Vice President of Sales and Marketing. Global Med alleges, among other things, that prior to his resignation in July 2002 Mr. Jackson misappropriated certain trade secrets of Global Med. After leaving Global Med, Mr. Jackson became a management employee of one of Global Meds competitors. On March 30, 2005, the Superior Court of the State of California in and for the County of El Dorado granted the motion for summary judgment for Donnie L. Jackson, Jr. On September 1, 2005, the Company deposited $1.004 million with the Superior Court in the State of California in the County of El Dorado. This deposit represents potential fees and attorneys costs the Company could be required to pay in the event the Company does not prevail on appeal. The $1.004 million is classified as a Deposit in escrow on the Companys balance sheet as of December 31, 2005. Based on external evidence, the Company has determined that it is more likely than not that the Company will be required to pay the $1.004 million that is currently classified as a Deposit in escrow. As a result, the Company expensed the amount of the Deposit in escrow and set up a liability for $1.004 million in the form of Litigation accrual as of December 31, 2005. The Company is currently appealing the judges decision and in the event the Company prevails, the Company may be refunded the $1.004 million deposit or a portion thereof. In the event the Company prevails, the Company could recognize a reduction in expenses ranging between $0 and $1.004 million, as of December 31, 2005.
NOTE 11. SUBSEQUENT EVENT
On March 29, 2006, the Company renegotiated certain terms related to the Series A and the related warrants. From December 16, 2005 through March 28, 2006, the date prior to the renegotiated terms, the Company classified the Series A as mezzanine equity in the Companys balance sheet. As of March 29, 2006, the Company believes equity classification for the Series A will be appropriate based upon the renegotiated terms. The renegotiated terms resulted in the elimination or addition of several terms that made mezzanine equity treatment more appropriate for the period through March 28, 2006. The significant terms that were eliminated or added are as follows:
1. | Removal of cash payout for events that were outside the control of the Company which included a change of control; |
2. | Removal of a certain clauses that would result in the resetting of the conversion price for the Series A and the related warrants in the event that the Company issued common share equivalents at a price that was less than the conversion price or exercise price of $0.72 per common share; |
3. | Removal of provisions that allowed for dividends to occur in the future under certain circumstances; |
4. | Removal of preference in liquidation; |
5. | Addition of certain voting rights for preferred shareholders; and |
6. | The ability for the Company to determine a maximum number of common shares that the holders can convert the Series A and related warrants into. |
The Company now believes that the revisions to the terms of the Series A will result in the Series A being properly classified as equity. In addition, the revised terms have resulted in the Series A being closely and clearly related to equity. As a result, the Company believes that the embedded derivatives identified in note 8 of the accompanying audited financial statements will no longer treatment as freestanding embedded derivative financial instruments requiring separate accounting treatment under SFAS 133.

Stock Option Plans and Other Issuances
In the second quarter of 2001, Global Med adopted the 2001 Stock Option Plan (2001 Plan). The 2001 Plan provided for the issuance of options to purchase up to 15 million registered shares of common stock to employees, officers, directors and consultants of Global Med. Options may be granted as incentive stock options or as nonqualified stock options. Only employees of Global Med are eligible to receive Incentive Options. The 2001 Plan expires on December 28, 2010. In June 2003, the Board of Directors of Global Med approved a change in the 2001 Plan. The Board of Directors of Global Med authorized an amendment to the 2001 Plan reducing the number of common shares reserved and authorized for issuance by 5 million. Effective in June 2003, the total number of common shares approved for issuance under the 2001 Plan as authorized by the Board was reduced from 15 million to 10 million. Global Med filed an amendment to the existing S-8 registration statement for the 2001 Plan to effect this change on May 20, 2004. As of December 31, 2005, options to purchase 5.906 million shares of Global Meds common stock at a weighted average exercise price of $0.89 per share were outstanding under the 2001 Plan, of which 4.762 million options to purchase shares were exercisable at December 31, 2005. Options granted under the Plan typically vest on a straight-line basis, based on schedules as determined by the Board of Directors upon grant and generally expire 10 years after grant. During the year ended December 31, 2005, Global Med issued 3.131 million stock options under the 2001 Plan.
In June 2003, Global Meds Board of Directors approved the 2003 Stock Option Plan (2003 Plan). The 2003 Plan provides for the issuance of stock options exercisable to purchase up to 5 million shares of Global Meds common stock to employees, officers, directors and consultants. The Board of Directors also approved the inclusion of options to purchase approximately 4.707 million shares under the 2003 Plan that were issued to such persons prior to the adoption of the 2003 Plan and lacked registration rights. Global Med filed an S-8 registration statement to register the 5 million shares issuable under the 2003 Plan on May 20, 2004. As of December 31, 2005 there were approximately 4.435 million options outstanding under this plan with exercise prices ranging from $0.45 to $1.50 per share. The weighted- average exercise price of these options is $0.68. As of December 31, 2005, all of issued options under the 2003 Plan were exercisable.
26
The Second Amended and Restated Stock Option Plan (Plan) provides for the issuance of options to purchase up to 2.2 million registered shares of common stock to employees, officers, directors and consultants of Global Med. Options may be granted as incentive stock or as nonqualified stock options. Only employees of Global Med are eligible to receive Incentive Options. As of May 31, 2000, options could no longer be issued under this Plan. As of December 31, 2005, options to purchase 1.077 million shares of Global Meds common stock at a weighted average exercise price of $1.16 per share were outstanding under the Plan, of which 1.077 million options to purchase shares were exercisable at December 31, 2005.
Global Med also periodically grants options to purchase shares of registered common stock. The shares underlying these options are not registered under the 1933 Act. As of December 31, 2005, there were outstanding options to purchase 385 thousand shares of common stock at a weighted-average exercise price of $1.90 per share through December 31, 2005, of which 368 thousand were exercisable at December 31, 2004.
In February of 2005, the Companys Board of Directors approved documentation changes related to option grants to certain employees and a director that occurred in December of 1999 and June of 2000. The Board of Directors determined that the term of the options as originally granted, five years, was documented incorrectly and should have been ten years. This determination was based on the fact that the five year term was inconsistent with the Companys defacto policies and practices at the time to grant ten year options to directors and employees. As the Company views this Board action as a correction of a documentation deficiency, the Company has no plans to recognize compensation expense associated with this documentation correction.
Option Grants Table
During 2005, 700 thousand stock options were granted to the Companys Executive Officers. None were granted during 2004.

Compensation Of Directors
Standard Arrangements. The Company pays the directors, who are not also employees of the Company, a fee of $500 for each board meeting they attend. The Company's Board of Directors approved this compensation on April 1, 2004. The company also from time-to-time issues stock options to members of the Board of Directors.
Other Arrangements. During 2000, the Company also authorized the issuance of 35 thousand common shares to Gary Cook, a director, in his capacity as acting Principal Financial and Accounting Officer and Treasurer. Of the 35 thousand authorized shares, 28 thousand had been issued as of December 31, 2004. These shares will be issued at a rate of 7 thousand a year as they are earned. These shares were valued at $37 thousand. The Company compensates certain directors as discussed above and issued a director 100 thousand options during the year ended December 31, 2004.

ITEM 12. CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS
The Board of Directors of the Company has adopted resolutions that no business transaction, loan or advance will be made by the Company to any officer, director or holder of more than 5% of the Companys common stock, or any affiliate thereof, unless it has been established that a bona fide business purpose exists, that all future transactions between the Company and its officers, directors, or principal shareholders, or any affiliate of any of such person, must be approved or ratified by a majority of the disinterested directors of the Company, and the terms of such transaction must be no less favorable to the Company than could have been realized by the Company in an arms-length transaction with an unaffiliated person. The Company believes that all ongoing transactions with the Companys affiliates are on terms no less favorable than could be obtained from unaffiliated third parties.
The Board of Directors of the Company adopted a resolution in July 1996 that provides that the areas of business in which the Company shall be interested for the purpose of the doctrine of corporate opportunities shall be the business of information management software products and services. Any business opportunity which falls within such areas of interest must be brought to the attention of the Company for acceptance or rejection prior to any officer or director of the Company taking advantage of such opportunity. Any business opportunity outside such areas of interest may be entered into by any officer or director of the Company without the officer or director first offering the business opportunity to the Company.
As of December 16, 2005, in conjunction with the Companys repayment of its outstanding debt and the redemption of the Series AA Convertible Preferred Stock, the Company terminated its relationship with eVision and paid them $45 thousand for all accrued services dating back to February of 2002. During 2005 and 2004, the Company incurred $76 thousand and $229 thousand, respectively, in interest charges from debt originally financed by eBanker, and subsequently transferred to GMCAL and then GMIL. eBanker, GMCAL, and GMIL are entities that are controlled by China Credit. Global Med International Holdings Limited (GMIHL) is a subsidiary of eBanker.
As of December 16, 2005, Dr. Ruxins personal guarantee of $650 thousand plus pro rata interest of the outstanding loan balance with GMIL, originally associated with the November 19, 2000 eBanker Loan Agreement was terminated as a result of repayment of the debt and all outstanding interest to GMIL. The personal guarantee was limited to certain of Dr. Ruxins assets.
Pursuant to a Stock Purchase Agreement, dated as of December 16, 2005 between the Company and GMIL, the Companys outstanding debt with GMIL in the amount of $528,700, the outstanding Series A Preferred Stock in the amount of $3.5 million, outstanding common shares numbering 4.360 million and the outstanding warrants to purchase 11.186 million shares of common stock were paid off, redeemed, or repurchased, respectively, for $8 million. In addition, the investors purchases 6.350 million common shares from GMIL directly. In addition all of the six members of the Companys Board of Directors nominated by GMIL resigned. As a result of the above, GMIL is no longer a considered a related party of the Company.
As of December 31, 2002, the Companys Board of Directors had approved borrowings to a related party totaling $370 thousand. During the year ended December 31, 2002, the Companys Notes Receivable, related party balance, increased $290 thousand to a total of $370 thousand as a result of funds advanced in the form of promissory notes to this entity controlled by a, now formerly, director of the Company, Jeff Busch. The notes bear interest at 12% per year and mature in 2006. During the year ended December 31, 2001, the Company had lent $80 thousand to this entity. In addition, the CEO and Chairman of Global Med, Michael I. Ruxin, was also on the board of directors of this entity controlled by Jeff Busch. Dr. Ruxin resigned as a director of the related entity effective December 12, 2002. Jeff Busch resigned his position as a director of the Company and PeopleMed effective December 12, 2002. As a result, Jeff Busch and the entity controlled by Jeff Busch are no longer related parties of the Company. On March 10, 2003 the Companys Board of Directors approved and subsequently funded additional borrowings to this entity controlled by Jeff Busch in the amount of $30 thousand.
