Explanatory Note:
On June 19, 2009, the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors of Champions Biotechnology,
Inc. (Champions, the Company, or as used in the context of we, us or our) concluded that
our quarterly financial statements for the fiscal year April 30, 2009 and our financial statements
for the year ended April 30, 2008 would need to be restated and should no longer be relied upon.
This Amendment No. 1 (the Form 10-Q/A) to our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the for the
three months ended October 31, 2008 (the 2009 Second Quarter 10-Q) is being filed to restate our
condensed financial statements as of October 31, 2008 and for the three and six month periods ended
October 31, 2008 and October 31, 2007. In addition, we are concurrently filing Form 10-KSB/A to
amend and restate our consolidated financial statements for the year ended April 30, 2008 and Form
10-Q/As to amend and restate our condensed consolidated financial statements for the quarterly
periods ended July 31, 2008 (the 2009 First Quarter 10-Q) and January 31, 2009 (the 2009 Third
Quarter 10-Q).
Background:
The Company has restated its condensed consolidated financial statements as of October 31,
2008 and April 30, 2008 and for the three and six month periods ended October 31, 2008 and 2007.
This
restatement arose when the Company identified an error in its accounting for stock-based
compensation related to stock options issued to non-employees for consulting services. Previously,
the Company recognized a contra equity account called
prepaid consulting for the fair value of the
unvested stock based compensation awards. This prepaid consulting balance was amortized to
compensation expense over the options vesting term. Additionally, when certain non-employees were
hired as permanent employees, no modification to the accounting for their previously issued stock
based compensation award was considered. Finally, the Company considered the grant date to be the
measurement date for options awards issued to non-employees when no performance commitment existed.
Upon further review and analysis of the relevant accounting literature related to stock based
compensation, we determined the balance sheet should not present the
fair value of the unvested portion of
awards issued to non-employees as the awards were not fully vested when granted. Additionally, as
no performance commitment existed as of the grant date, the measurement date related to
non-employee stock option grants should have been measured at the date the non-employees
performance was completed, or over the respective options vesting term. Lastly, when
non-employees, who had previously received stock options, were hired as permanent employees, the
unvested compensation should have been recognized as stock based compensation expense ratably over
the remaining vesting period on a prospective basis.
Note 2 to our restated condensed consolidated financial statements describes the nature of the
restatement adjustments and details the impact of the restatement on our condensed consolidated
financial statements as of October 31, 2008 and April 30, 2008 and the three and six month periods
ended October 31, 2008 and 2007.
In connection with the restatement, management has assessed the effectiveness of our
disclosure controls and procedures and has included revised disclosure in this Form 10-Q/A under
Item 4 of Part I, Controls and Procedures. Management identified a material weakness in our
internal control over financial reporting with respect to our interpretation and application of
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No, 123(R), Share Based Payment, (SFAS 123R) and EITF
98-18, Accounting for Equity Instruments That Are Issued to Other Than Employees for Acquiring, or
in Conjunction with Selling, Goods or Services, (EITF 96-18) as they apply to the calculation of
stock based compensation. As a result of this material weakness, our Chief Executive Officer and
Chief Financial Officer concluded that our internal control over financial reporting and our
disclosure controls and procedures were not effective at a reasonable assurance level as of April
30, 2008 and as of the date of this filing. As of the filing date of this Form 10-Q/A, we have
implemented accounting practices that management believes complies with requirements of SFAS 123R
and EITF 96-18. Management has taken and is taking steps, as described under Item 4 of Part I to
remediate the material weakness in our internal control over financial reporting.
Because this Form 10-Q/A sets forth the 2008 Second Quarter Form 10-Q/A in its entirety, it
includes items that have been changed as a result of the restatement and items that are unchanged
from the original filing. Other than the amending of the disclosures relating to the restatement,
the Form 10-Q/A speaks as of the original filing date of the 2008 Second Quarter Form 10-Q and has
not been updated to reflect other events occurring subsequent to the original filing date. This
includes forward-looking statements impacted by the restatement, which should be read in their
historical context. This Form 10-Q/A should be read in conjunction
with our Form 10-KSB/A for the
year ended April 30, 2008.
The following items in this Form 10-Q/A have been amended as a result of the restatement:
Part I Item 1. Financial Statements
Part I Item 2. Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
Part I Item 4. Controls and Procedures

CHAMPIONS BIOTECHNOLOGY, INC.
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
OCTOBER 31, 2008
(UNAUDITED)
(1) ORGANIZATION AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION
The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements of Champions Biotechnology, Inc.
(Champions or the Company) as of and for the six months ended October 31, 2009 and 2008 are
unaudited. The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets, statements of
operations and statements of cash flows have been prepared in accordance with U.S. Generally
Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP) for interim financial information and in conjunction with
the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). Accordingly, they do
not include all of the disclosures required by GAAP for complete financial statements. The
financial statements reflect all adjustments, consisting only of normal, recurring adjustments,
which are in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair presentation for the interim periods.
Management of the Company has made a number of estimates and assumptions relating to the reporting
of assets and liabilities and related revenue and expense accounts and the disclosure of contingent
assets and liabilities to prepare these condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity
with GAAP. Actual results could differ materially from those estimates. These financial statements
should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto
included in the Companys Annual Report on Form 10-KSB/A for the fiscal year ended April 30, 2008.
The results for the six months and three months ended October 31, 2008 may not be indicative of the
results for the entire year.
Impact of Recent Accounting Pronouncements
The Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 157, Fair Value
Measurement, (SFAS 157) on May 1, 2008. SFAS 157 defines fair value as the price that would be
received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market
participants at the measurement date (an exit price). The standard outlines a valuation framework
and creates a fair value hierarchy in order to increase the consistency and comparability of fair
value measurements and the related disclosures. Under GAAP, certain assets and liabilities must be
measured at fair value, and SFAS 157 details the disclosures that are required for items measured
at fair value. In February 2008, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Staff Position No.
157-2 (FSP 157-2), which delays the effective date of SFAS 157 for one year for all nonfinancial
assets and liabilities, except those that are recognized or disclosed at fair value in the
financial statements on a recurring basis. The Company does not have nonfinancial assets and
nonfinancial liabilities that are required to be measured at fair value on a recurring basis.
The Company did not elect the fair value measurement option under SFAS No. 159, The Fair Value
Option for Financial Assets and Liabilities, (SFAS 159) and presently, the Company does not have
any financial assets and liabilities that would need to be measured under the fair measurement
option under SFAS 159.
In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 160, Non-controlling Interests in Consolidated Financial
Statements: an amendment of ARB No. 51, (SFAS 160). SFAS No. 160 replaces the term minority
interests with the newly-defined term of non-controlling interests and establishes this line item
as an element of stockholders equity, separate from the parents equity. SFAS No. 160 also
includes expanded disclosure requirements regarding the interests of the parent and its
non-controlling interest. The Company is continuing to review the provisions of SFAS No. 160,
which is effective the first quarter of fiscal 2010, and currently does not expect this new
accounting standard to have a significant impact on the Financial Statements.
In March 2008, the FASB issued SFAS No. 161, Disclosures about Derivative Instruments and Hedging
Activities: an amendment of FASB Statement No. 133, (SFAS 161). SFAS No. 161 changes the
disclosure requirements for derivative instruments and hedging activities. The Company is
reviewing the provisions of SFAS No. 161, which is effective the first quarter of fiscal 2010, and
currently does not anticipate that this new accounting standard will have a significant impact on
the Financial Statements.
In May 2008, the FASB issued SFAS No. 162, The Hierarchy of Generally Accepted Accounting
Principles, (SFAS 162). SFAS No. 162 identifies the sources of accounting principles and the
framework for selecting principles used in the preparation of financial statements. SFAS No. 162
is effective 60 days following the SECs approval of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board
amendments to AU Section 411, The Meaning of Present Fairly in Conformity with Generally Accepted
Accounting Principles. The effective date of SFAS No. 162 has not yet been determined. The
implementation of this standard will not have a material impact on the Financial Statements.
Reclassifications
The Company has reclassified certain amounts for the six months and three months ended October 31,
2007 to conform to the presentation of the October 31, 2008 amounts. The reclassifications have no
effect on the net income for the periods ended October 31, 2007.

(2) RESTATEMENT OF CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
The
Company has restated its consolidated financial statements as of
October 31, 2008 and April 30, 2008 and for the
three and six month periods ended October 31, 2008 and 2007.
The
restatement arose when the Company identified an error in its
accounting for stock-based compensation related to stock options
issued to non-employees for consulting services. Previously, the
Company recognized a contra equity account called prepaid
consulting for the fair value of the unvested stock based
compensation awards. This prepaid consulting balance was amortized to
compensation expense over the options vesting term. Additionally, when
certain non-employees were hired as permanent employees, no
modification to the accounting for their previously issued stock
based compensation award was considered. Finally, the Company
considered the grant date to be the measurement date for options
awards issued to non-employees when no performance commitment
existed. Upon further review and analysis of the relevant accounting
literature related to stock-based compensation, we determined the
balance sheet should not present the fair value of the unvested
portion of awards issued to non-employees as the awards were not
fully vested when granted. Additionally, as no performance commitment
existed as of the grant date, the measurement date related to
non-employee stock option grants should have been measured at the
date the non-employees performance was completed, or over the
respective options vesting term. Lastly, when non-employees, who had
previously received stock options, were hired as permanent employees,
the unvested compensation should have been recognized as stock based
compensation expense ratably over the remaining vesting period on a
prospective basis.
The Companys management performed a detailed review of Statement of Financial Accounting
Standards No, 123R, Share Based Payment, (SFAS 123R), EITF 96-18, Accounting for Equity
Instruments That Are Issued to Other Than Employees for Acquiring, or in Conjunction with Selling,
Goods or Services, (EITF 96-18) and EITF 00-18, Accounting Recognition for Certain Transactions
involving Equity Instruments Granted to Other Than Employees, (EITF 00-18) as they apply to stock
options granted to non-employees. After evaluating this accounting literature, the Company
determined the balance sheet should not be grossed up for the unvested value of compensation
expense. Additionally, the compensation expense related to non-employee stock option grants should
calculated based on the fair market value of the options on the grant date and re-measured at the
end of each subsequent reporting period over the options vesting term. Lastly, when non-employees
who had previously received stock options were hired as permanent employees, the unvested
compensation as of the hire date should have been recognized ratably on a prospective basis over
the remaining vesting term.
The following is a summary of the effects of the restatement on the Companys condensed
consolidated balance sheet as of October 31, 2008 and April 30, 2008, its condensed consolidated
statements of operations for the three and six month periods ended October 31, 2008 and 2007, and
its condensed consolidated statements of cash flows for the six month periods ended October 31,
2008 and 2007:

(3) NET (LOSS) PER SHARE
Basic earnings per common share (EPS) is computed by dividing net income by the weighted-average
number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted EPS is computed by dividing net
income by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period increased to
include all additional common shares that would have been outstanding assuming potentially dilutive
common share equivalents had been issued. Dilutive common share equivalents include (1) the
dilutive effect of in-the-money shares related to stock options, which is calculated based on the
average share price for each period using the treasury stock method. Under the treasury stock
method, the exercise price of an option, the average amount of compensation cost, if any, for
future service that the Company has not yet recognized, and the amount of tax benefits that would
be recorded in additional paid-in capital, if any, when the option is exercised, are assumed to be
used to repurchase shares in the current period.
The following is a reconciliation of the computation for basic and diluted EPS for the six month
periods ended October 31, 2008 and 2007:

and three months ended October 31, 2008 was $100,512 and $38,795, respectively. As of October 31,
2008, there was $487,770 unrecognized compensation cost related share based compensation
arrangements. The cost is expected to be recognized over a weighted average period of 2.69 years.
(6) PROVISION FOR INCOME TAXES
Deferred income taxes are determined using the liability method for the temporary differences
between the financial reporting basis and income tax basis of the Companys assets and liabilities.
Deferred income taxes are measured based on the tax rates expected to be in effect when the
temporary differences are included in the Companys consolidated tax return. Deferred tax assets
and liabilities are recognized based on anticipated future tax consequences attributable to
differences between financial statement carrying amounts of assets and liabilities and their
respective tax bases.
At October 31, 2008 and April 30, 2008 deferred tax assets consist of the following:

At October 31, 2008 and April 30, 2008, the Company had federal net operating loss carryforwards in
the approximate amounts of $7,806,564 and $7,515,076 available to offset future taxable income
subject to Section 382 analysis limitations. The Company established valuation allowances equal to
the full amount of the deferred tax assets due to the uncertainty of the utilization of the
operating losses in future periods.

$62,843 and had deferred revenue of $135,607 from these companies. All services provided under
these contracts are in the ordinary course of business at prices and on terms and conditions that
the Company believes are the same as those that would result from arms length negotiations between
unrelated parties.

DISCLOSURE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
This document contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the
Securities Act of 1933 (Securities Act) and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934
(Exchanges Act) that inherently involve risk and uncertainties. The Company generally uses words
such as believe, may, could, will, intend, estimate, expect, anticipate, plan,
likely, promise and similar expressions to identify forward-looking statements. One should not
place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements. The Companys actual results could
differ materially from those anticipated in the forward-looking statements for many unforeseen
factors, which may include, but are not limited to, changes in general economic conditions, the
ongoing threat of terrorism, ability to have access to financing sources on reasonable terms and
other risks. Those risks include, but are not limited to, the risks identified in our periodic
reports filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission, including our most recent Annual Report
on form 10-KSB. Although the Company believes the expectations reflected in the forward-looking
statements are reasonable, they relate only to events as of the date on which the statements are
made, and the Companys future results, levels of activity, performance or achievements may not
meet these expectations. The Company does not intend to update any of the forward-looking
statements after the date of this document to conform these statements to actual results or to
changes in the Companys expectations, except as required by law.
Restatement
The Company has restated its condensed consolidated financial statements as of October 31,
2008 and April 30, 2008 and for the three and six month periods ended October 31, 2008 and 2007.
This restatement arose when the Company identified an error in its accounting for stock based
compensation related to stock options issued to non-employees for consulting services. Previously,
the Company recognized a contra equity account called
prepaid consulting for the fair value of the
unvested stock based compensation awards. This prepaid consulting balance was amortized to
compensation expense over the options vesting term. Additionally, when certain non-employees were
hired as permanent employees, no modification to the accounting for their previously issued stock
based compensation award was considered. Finally, the Company considered the grant date to be the
measurement date for options awards issued to non-employees when no performance commitment existed.
Upon further review and analysis of the relevant accounting literature related to stock based
compensation, we determined the balance sheet should not present the
fair value of the unvested portion of
awards issued to non-employees as the awards were not fully vested when granted. Additionally, as
no performance commitment existed as of the grant date, the measurement date related to
non-employee stock option grants should have been measured at the date the non-employees
performance was completed, or over the respective options vesting term. Lastly, when
non-employees, who had previously received stock options, were hired as permanent employees, the
unvested compensation should have been recognized as stock based compensation expense ratably over
the remaining vesting period on a prospective basis.
Note 2 to our restated condensed consolidated financial statements describes the nature of the
restatement adjustments and details the impact of the restatement on our condensed consolidated
financial statements as of October 31, 2008 and April 30, 2008 and the six and three month periods
ended October 31, 2008 and 2007.
Overview
The Company is engaged in the development of advanced preclinical platforms and predictive
tumor specific data to enhance and accelerate the value of oncology drugs. Our Preclinical
Platform is a novel approach based upon the implantation of primary human tumor fragments in immune
deficient mice followed by propagation of the resulting engraftments (Biomerk Tumorgrafts) in a
manner that preserves the biological characteristics of the original human tumor. We believe that
Biomerk Tumorgrafts closely reflect human cancer biology and their response to drugs is more
predictive of clinical outcomes in cancer patients. The Company is building its Biomerk Tumorgraft
platform through the procurement, development and characterization of numerous Tumorgrafts within
each of several cancer types. Tumorgrafts are procured through agreements with a growing number of
institutions in the United States and Europe and developed and tested through agreement with a U.S.
based preclinical facility.
We are leveraging our preclinical platform to evaluate oncology drug candidates and to develop
a portfolio of novel or reposition drug candidates through pre-clinical or early clinical trials.
As drugs progress through this early stage of development, the Company plans to sell, partner or
license them to pharmaceutical and/or biotechnology companies, as appropriate. We believe this
strategy will enable us to leverage the competencies of these partners or licensees to maximize our
return on investment in a time frame that is shorter than for traditional drug development. We
believe that this model is unlike that of many new biotechnology companies that look to bring the
process of drug development through all phases of discovery, development, regulatory approvals, and
marketing, which requires a very large financial commitment and a long development period,
typically more than a decade, to commercialize. Thus far we have acquired two oncology drug
candidates and we have begun preclinical development of the most promising candidate, SG410,
through the use of contract facilities. We have secured preclinical supply of SG410 drug substance
and it is our intention to develop a soluble form of the compound and evaluate its
efficacy in Biomerk Tumorgrafts from several cancer types. If results are promising it is our
intention to continue preclinical development and then sell, partner or license SG410 for its
remaining clinical development.
16
We also offer our Biomerk Tumorgraft predictive preclinical platform and tumor specific data
to physicians to provide information that may enhance personalized patient care options and to
companies for evaluation of oncology drugs in a platform that integrates predictive testing with
biomarker discovery. We provide personalized oncology services to physicians in the field of
oncology by establishing and administering expert medical information panels for their patients to
(i) arrange for testing, analysis and study of cancer tissues, as appropriate, (ii) analyze medical
records and test results, and (iii) assist in understanding conventional and research options. The
Company also develops and performs testing on Personalized Tumorgrafts to provide patients
physicians personalized data on treatment drug options. In fiscal 2008, the Company generated all
its revenue from its growing personalized oncology services while it continued development of its
Biomerk Tumorgraft platform.
In late fiscal year 2008, as we expanded our number of Biomerk Tumorgraft models, we began to
offer leading pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies the benefits of our Biomerk Tumorgrafts
for their preclinical evaluation programs. We provide preclinical eValuation services that we
believe are more predictive of clinical outcomes and that might provide for a faster and less
expensive path for drug approval. These services utilize Biomerk Tumorgrafts to evaluate tumor
sensitivity/resistance to various single and combination standard and novel chemotherapy agents.
The preclinical eValuation services we offer also include biomarker discovery and the
identification of novel drug combinations. In the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2008 we
established an agreement with ImClone Systems Incorporated (ImClone) for the preclinical
evaluation of certain therapeutic antibodies in ImClones clinical development pipeline. As part of
the agreement, ImClone will utilize our Biomerk Tumorgrafts in the initial preclinical evaluation.
Once we enter into an agreement with a pharmaceutical or biotechnology company to perform
Biomerk Tumorgraft testing services it takes several months to propagate the Tumorgrafts prior to
beginning the drug testing. In the second quarter of fiscal 2009 we performed drug testing under
several contracts. We are currently providing services or in discussions to provide services to a
number of other companies.
Results of Operations
We expanded our operations as a biotechnology company after we acquired Biomerk, Inc. in May 2007.
Accordingly, the results described below for the 2007 period are for less than a full six months.
Three Months Ended October 31, 2008 and 2007
Revenues. For the three months ended October 31, 2008, the Companys operating revenue was
$1,044,172, compared to zero for the comparable three months ended October 31, 2007. For the 2008
period, we primarily derived our revenue from our personalized oncology business and, to a lesser
extent, our Preclinical eValuation business. We began to generate revenue from our Preclinical
eValuation business in the first quarter of fiscal 2009 and grew it in the second quarter as we
completed portions of studies for our contractual customers during the quarter; those studies and
others continue or are in progress. Expectations for growth in the future are from continued
personalized oncology services and use of our preclinical eValuation services. Our revenue is
described as personalized oncology and preclinical contract revenue in the Condensed Consolidated
Statements of Operations.
At October 31, 2008, we had deferred revenue of $461,838 which represents payments in advance
on future personalized oncology services and Preclinical eValuation services which will be
recognized as earned when operations are performed. At October 31, 2007, we had no deferred
revenue.
Expenses (Restated). For the three months ended October 31, 2008, our operating expenses were
$1,230,166, compared to $497,706 for the three months ended October 31, 2007, an increase of 147%.
|
|
|
Research and development expenses. For the three months ended October 31,
2008, research and development expenses were $419,404, compared to $30,910 for the
three months ended October 31, 2007. The increase of $388,494 or 1,256% for the three
months ended October 31, 2008 was primarily a result of the increase in Tumorgrafts
acquired and their propagation, characterization and development for utilization in
preclinical studies. Increases also resulted from development activities directed
toward building our drug pipeline and evaluating synergistic technologies as well as
preclinical development expenses for the Companys lead oncology drug candidate, SG410. |
|
|
|
Cost of personalized oncology and preclinical contract services. For the
three months ended October 31, 2008, the costs of personalized oncology and preclinical
contract services were $458,586, compared to zero for the corresponding 2007 period.
The fiscal 2008 costs were primarily for conducting the Companys personalized oncology
services, including medical information panels and the development and testing of
personalized Tumorgrafts, but also include costs related to preclinical evaluation
studies in progress under contract. |
|
|
|
General and administrative expenses (Restated). For the three months ended
October 31, 2008, general and administrative expenses were $352,176, compared to
$466,796 for the three months ended October 31, 2007, a decrease of $114,620 or 25%.
Share based compensation decreased by $355,162 from $393,957 for the three months ended
October 31, 2007 to $38,795 for the three months ended October 31, 2008. General and
administrative expenses other than share based compensation were $313,381 for the three
months ended October 31, 2008 compared to $72,839 for the three months ended October 31,
2007. The increase of $240,542 or 330% was due to increased expenses as we built and
grew our infrastructure including the addition of personnel, consultants and other
initiatives to facilitate current and future growth. |
17
Expenses are expected to increase in the future, commensurate with our increased levels of
activity and growth, including our increasing business development efforts in pursuing prospective
drug candidates to add to the Companys pipeline and synergistic technologies.
Net Loss (Restated). Our net loss for the three months ended October 31, 2008 was $160,881
and our net loss for the three months ended October 31, 2007 was $493,071, a decrease of 67%. As
explained in the above analysis of our revenues and expenses, the primary reason for our decreased
loss in the 2008 quarter was due to lower share based compensation during the three months ended
October 31, 2008 compared to 2007. This was partially offset by our increased investments to grow
our preclinical platform, increase revenues from our personalized oncology and preclinical
eValuation businesses, grow our drug pipeline and continue preclinical development of our oncology
drug candidate, SG410.
Six Months Ended October 31, 2008 and 2007
Revenues. For the six months ended October 31, 2008, the Companys operating revenue was
$1,717,289 compared to $250,000 for the comparable six months ended October 31, 2007, an increase
of $1,467,289 or 587%. For the 2008 period, we primarily derived our revenue from our personalized
oncology business and, to a lesser extent, our preclinical eValuation business. We began to
generate revenue from our preclinical eValuation business in the first quarter of fiscal 2009 and
grew this revenue in the second quarter. Expectations for growth in the future are from continued
personalized oncology services and use of our preclinical eValuation services. Our revenue is
described as personalized oncology and preclinical contract revenue in the Condensed Consolidated
Statements of Operations.
At October 31, 2008, we had deferred revenue of $461,838 which represents payments in advance
on future personalized oncology services and preclinical eValuation services which will be
recognized as earned when operations are performed. At October 31, 2007, we had no deferred
revenue recorded.
Expenses (Restated). For the six months ended October 31, 2008, our operating expenses were
$2,054,606, compared to $803,806 for the six months ended October 31, 2007, an increase of
$1,250,800 or 156%.
|
|
|
Research and development expenses. For the six months ended October 31,
2008, research and development expenses were $636,567, compared to $105,910 for the
corresponding 2007 period. The increase of $530,657 or 501% was primarily a result of
the increase in Tumorgrafts acquired and their propagation, characterization and
development for utilization in preclinical studies. Increases also resulted from
development activities directed toward building our drug pipeline and evaluating
synergistic technologies as well as preclinical development expenses for the Companys
oncology drug candidate, SG410. |
|
|
|
Cost of personalized oncology and preclinical contract services. For the
six months ended October 31, 2008, the costs of personalized oncology and preclinical
contract services were $718,186, compared to $80,562 for the six months ended October
31, 2007, an increase of $637,624 or 791%. These costs were primarily for conducting
the Companys personalized oncology services, including medical information panels and
the development and testing of personalized tumorgrafts, but also include costs related
to preclinical evaluation studies in progress under contract. |
|
|
|
General and administrative expenses (Restated). For the six months ended
October 31, 2008, general and administrative expenses were $699,853, compared to
$617,334 for the six months ended October 31, 2007, an increase of $82,519 or 13%. The
increase is primarily due to higher expenses in 2008 as we built and grew our
infrastructure including the addition of personnel, consultants and other initiatives
to facilitate current and future growth. The overall increase was partially offset by
lower share based compensation expense for the six months ended October 31, 2008
compared to the 2007 six month period. |
Expenses are expected to increase in the future, commensurate with our increased levels of
activity and growth, including our increasing efforts in pursuing attractive prospective drug
candidates and technologies.
Net Loss (Restated). Our net loss for the six months ended October 31, 2008 was $291,488, and
our net loss for the six months ended October 31, 2007 was $543,812, a decrease of $252,324 or 46%.
As explained in the above analysis of our revenues and expenses, the primary reason for our
decreased loss in the 2008 period was higher revenue recorded for the six months ended October 31,
2008.
Financial Condition and Liquidity
The Companys cash position on October 31, 2008, was $3,052,558 compared to $3,709,136 as of
April 30, 2008. For the six months ended October 31, 2008, the net cash used by operating
activities was $655,011.
18
Our working capital as of October 31, 2008 was $2,555,599 compared to $2,748,141 at April 30,
2008. The decrease in working capital was primarily due to the decrease in cash of $656,578 from
April 30, 2008 to October 31, 2008.
The Company believes it has sufficient resources to provide for the next twelve months of
operations based on its current level of expenditure, its anticipated level of future expenditure
and revenue growth and its ability to curtail expenditures if needed.
Critical Accounting Policies
In the notes to our Annual Report on Form 10-KSB/A for the year ended April 30, 2008, we
discussed the accounting policies that are considered to be significant in determining the results
of operations and our financial position. We believe that the accounting principles utilized by us
conform to accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Controls and Procedures |
Management of the Company is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate disclosure
controls and procedures and for the assessment of the effectiveness of disclosure controls and
procedures. The Companys disclosure controls and procedures is a process designed under the
supervision of the Companys chief executive officer and chief financial officer to provide
reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of the
consolidated financial statements in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting
principles (U.S. GAAP).
Our
Principal Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that during the
period covered by this report, such internal control over financial reporting were not effective as more fully described below. This was due to
deficiencies that existed in the design or operation of our internal control over financial
reporting that adversely affected our disclosure controls and that may be considered material
weaknesses. The Public Company Accounting Oversight Board has defined a material weakness as a
deficiency, or combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting (ICFR)
such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of the companys annual or
interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis by the companys
ICFR.
The material weaknesses identified in our internal control over financial reporting and
disclosure controls relate to the following:
Our
auditors identified a material weakness which consisted primarily of inadequate staffing and supervision that could lead to the untimely
identification and resolution of accounting and disclosure matters and failure to perform timely
and effective reviews.
The
second material weakness related to our accounting for stock-based
compensation under SFAS 123R and EITF 96-18, where the Company improperly calculated the
measurement date for non-employees of the Company and we did not take into consideration changes in
employee status. In addition, we misclassified the fair value of the unvested portion of
non-employee awards as a contra equity account called prepaid consulting.
All internal control systems, no matter how well designed, have inherent limitations.
Therefore, even those systems determined to be effective can only provide reasonable assurances
with respect to financial statement preparation and presentation. In addition, any evaluation of
effectiveness for future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate
because of changes in conditions in the future.
Remediation of Material Weaknesses
In light of the conclusion that our Companys internal control over financial reporting was
not effective, our management has developed a plan intended to remediate such ineffectiveness and
to strengthen our internal controls over financial reporting through the implementation of certain
remedial measures, which include:
1) Continue enhancing our U.S. GAAP training program for our existing personnel.
2) Hiring of an Assistant Controller to directly handle the day to day accounting functions of the
company.
3) The licensing of a SFAS 123R software program to assist in the proper accounting for stock based
compensation.
We will continue these efforts until we are satisfied that all material weaknesses have been
eliminated. We expect that resolution of all of these issues will take place in fiscal 2010.
