Note 1 Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with instructions for Form 10-Q, include all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring accruals) which are necessary for a fair presentation of the results for the periods presented. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in the financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America have been condensed or omitted. It is suggested that these condensed consolidated financial statements be read in conjunction with the Companys Annual Report for the year ended December 31, 2007. The results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2008, are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year. The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Vyrex Corporation (the Company) and PowerVerde, Inc., its wholly owned subsidiary. Intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
Note 2 Business Acquisition
On February 11, 2008, Vyrex Corporation (Vyrex or the Company), PowerVerde, Inc. (PowerVerde) and Vyrex Acquisition Corporation (VAC), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Vyrex, all Delaware corporations, entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the Merger Agreement). Pursuant to the terms of the Merger Agreement, on February 12, 2008, VAC merged with and into PowerVerde, with PowerVerde remaining as the surviving corporation and a wholly-owned subsidiary of Vyrex (the Merger). As consideration for the Merger, as of the closing of the Merger, each issued and outstanding share of common stock of PowerVerde was converted into the right to receive 1.2053301 shares of the common stock of Vyrex and each share of VAC was converted into one share of PowerVerde common stock. As a result of the Merger, the former shareholders of PowerVerde hold 24,588,734 shares, or 95%, of the common stock of Vyrex. Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, PowerVerde paid $233,000 in accounts payable and other liabilities owed by Vyrex. The total purchase price of the transaction of $8,051,967 includes $60,000 of transaction costs related to the Merger.
In addition, immediately prior to execution of the Merger Agreement, Vyrex paid a $200,000 promissory note through issuance of 250,000 shares of common stock and issued an additional 25,000 shares of common stock as payment for certain consulting and administrative services.
The merger transaction has been accounted for as a recapitalization of Vyrex and the financial statements consist of the historical balance sheet of both companies, the historical results of operations of Vyrex, and the operations of the wholly owned subsidiary, PowerVerde.
The pro-forma results of operations for the three month periods ended March 31, 2008 and 2007 are not presented since there was an insignificant difference between pro-forma and actual results for the period as PowerVerde was acquired on February 12, 2008, and PowerVerde was inactive during the three months ended March 31, 2007.

Note 3 Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In February 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 159, The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities including an amendment of FASB Statement No. 115. SFAS No. 159 permits entities to choose to measure many financial instruments and certain other items at fair value. Unrealized gains and losses on items for which the fair value option has been elected will be recognized in earnings at each subsequent reporting date. SFAS No. 159 is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007. The adoption of this standard has not had a material effect on the consolidated financial position and results of operations of the Company.
In September 2006, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 157, Fair Value Measures. SFAS No. 157 defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value and enhances disclosures about fair value measures required under other accounting pronouncements, but does not change existing guidance as to whether or not an instrument is carried at fair value. SFAS No. 157 is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007. The Company is currently evaluating the impact that the adoption of SFAS No. 157 will have on its future consolidated financial statements.
In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 141 (revised 2007) Business Combinations (FASB No. 141(R)). FASB No. 141(R) retains the fundamental requirements of the original pronouncement requiring that the purchase method be used for all business combinations. FASB No. 141(R) defines the acquirer as the entity that obtains control of one or more businesses in the business combination, establishes the acquisition date as the date that the acquirer achieves control and requires the acquirer to recognize the assets acquired, liabilities assumed and any non-controlling interest at their fair values as of the acquisition date. FASB No. 141(R) also requires that acquisition-related costs be recognized separately from the acquisition. FASB No. 141(R) is effective for the Company for fiscal 2010. The Company is currently assessing the impact of FASB No. 141(R) on its consolidated financial position and results of operations.
In December 2007, the FASB issued Statement No. 160, Noncontrolling Interests in Consolidated Financial Statementsan amendment of ARB No. 51 (FASB No. 160). The objective of FASB No. 160 is to improve the relevance, comparability, and transparency of the financial information that a reporting entity provides in its consolidated financial statements by establishing accounting and reporting standards for the noncontrolling interest in a subsidiary and for the deconsolidation of a subsidiary. This Statement applies to all entities that prepare consolidated financial statements, except not-for-profit organizations. FASB No. 160 amends ARB 51 to establish accounting and reporting standards for the noncontrolling interest in a subsidiary and for the deconsolidation of a subsidiary. It also amends certain of ARB 51s consolidation procedures for consistency with the requirements of FASB No. 141(R). This Statement is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning on or after December 15, 2008 (that is, January 1, 2009, for entities with calendar year-ends). Earlier adoption is prohibited. The effective date of this Statement is the same as that of the related Statement 141(R). FASB No. 160 will be effective for the Companys fiscal 2010. This Statement shall be applied prospectively as of the beginning of the fiscal year in which this Statement is initially applied, except for the presentation and disclosure requirements. The presentation and disclosure requirements shall be applied retrospectively for all periods presented.
In March 2008, the FASB issued SFAS No. 161, Disclosures about Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities (SFAS No. 161). SFAS No. 161 amends and expands the disclosure requirement for FASB Statement No. 133, Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities (SFAS No. 133). It requires enhanced disclosure about (i) how and why an entity uses derivative instruments, (ii) how derivative instruments and related hedged items are accounted for under SFAS No. 133 and its related interpretations, and (iii) how derivative instruments and related hedged items affect an entitys financial position, financial performance, and cash flows. SFAS No. 161 is effective for the Company as of January 1, 2009.

Forward Looking Statements
Readers are cautioned that the statements in this Report that are not descriptions of historical facts may be forward-looking statements that are subject to risks and uncertainties. This Report contains certain forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. Such forward-looking statements are based on the beliefs of our management as well as on assumptions made by and information currently available to us as of the date of this Report. When used in this Report, the words plan, will, may, anticipate, believe, estimate, expect, intend, project and similar expressions are intended to identify such forward-looking statements. Although we believe these statements are reasonable, actual actions, operations and results could differ materially from those indicated by such forward-looking statements as a result of the risk factors included in our annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2007, or other factors. We must caution, however, that this list of factors may not be exhaustive and that these or other factors, many of which are outside of our control, could have a material adverse effect on us and our ability to achieve our objectives. All forward-looking statements attributable to us or persons acting on our behalf are expressly qualified in their entirety by the cautionary statements set forth above.
The following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto appearing elsewhere herein.
Critical Accounting Policies
Our financial statements are prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAP). The preparation of these financial statements requires our management to make estimates and assumptions about future events that effect the amounts reported in the financial statements and related notes. Future events and their effects cannot be determined with absolute certainty. Therefore, the determination of estimates requires the exercise of judgment. We believe the following critical accounting policies affect its more significant judgments and estimates used in the preparation of financial statements.
Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes
We adopted the provisions of Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Interpretation No. 48, Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxesan interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109 (FIN 48), on January 1, 2007. FIN 48 clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in an enterprises financial statements in accordance with FASB Statement 109, Accounting for Income Taxes, and prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement process for financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. FIN 48 also provides guidance on derecognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosure and transition.
Based on our evaluation, we have concluded that there are no significant uncertain tax positions requiring recognition in our financial statements. Our evaluation was performed for the tax years ended December 31, 2004, 2005 and 2006, the tax years which remain subject to examination by major tax jurisdictions as of December 31, 2007.
We may from time to time be assessed interest or penalties by major tax jurisdictions, although any such assessments historically have been minimal and immaterial to our financial results. In the event we have received an assessment for interest and/or penalties, it has been classified in the financial statements as selling, general and administrative expense.
Revenue Recognition
Licensing and royalty revenue from royalty agreements is recognized in accordance with the terms of the specific agreement, which generally includes a quarterly minimum payment by the licensee.

Overview
Vyrex Corporation (Vyrex) was incorporated in Nevada in 1991 and operated as a development stage company seeking to discover and develop pharmaceuticals, nutraceuticals and cosmeceuticals for the treatment and prevention of respiratory, cardiovascular and neurodegenerative diseases and conditions associated with aging (the Biotech Business). In the most recent years, Vyrexs research focused mainly on targeted antioxidant therapeutics and nutraceuticals. The Biotech Business was unsuccessful and, as a result, Vyrex ceased material operations relating to that business in October 2005; however, Vyrex has retained its intellectual property rights and contract rights relating to that business. On October 17, 2005, Vyrex reincorporated in Delaware. Following the cessation of material Biotech Business operations in October 2005, Vyrex turned its primary focus to seeking an appropriate merger partner for its public shell.
On February 11, 2008, Vyrex, PowerVerde, Inc. (PowerVerde) and Vyrex Acquisition Corporation (VAC), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Vyrex, all Delaware corporations, entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the Merger Agreement). Pursuant to the terms of the Merger Agreement, on February 12, 2008, VAC merged with and into PowerVerde, with PowerVerde remaining as the surviving corporation and a wholly-owned subsidiary of Vyrex (the Merger). As consideration for the Merger, as of the closing of the Merger, each issued and outstanding share of common stock of PowerVerde was converted into the right to receive 1.2053301 shares of the common stock of Vyrex and each share of VAC was converted into one share of PowerVerde common stock. As a result of the Merger, the former shareholders of PowerVerde hold 95% of the common stock of Vyrex. Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, PowerVerde paid $233,000 in accounts payable and other liabilities owed by Vyrex. In addition, immediately prior to execution of the Merger Agreement, Vyrex paid a $200,000 promissory note through issuance of 250,000 shares of common stock and issued an additional 25,000 shares of common stock as payment for certain consulting and administrative services.
As of March 31, 2008, our accumulated deficit was approximately $13,670,000. We do not expect to receive any further material revenues from the Biotech Business. We are entitled to a minimum royalty of $7,500 per year under our Boron compound sublicense agreement; however, we must pay $7,500 per year to the licensor.
As a development stage company, we have never generated any substantial revenue from product sales and have relied primarily on equity financing, licensing revenues, and various debt instruments for our working capital. We have been unprofitable since our inception.
Results of Operations
Three Months ended March 31, 2008 and 2007
From January 2007 to February 2008, Vyrexs material activities consisted of seeking a merger partner. PowerVerde was incorporated in March 2007 and its material operations began in the second quarter of 2007.
Our sole revenues in the first quarter of 2008 and 2007 consisted of royalty payments under the Boron agreement. All of our research and development expenses in the first quarter of 2008 were due to PoweVerdes activities, except for the $7500 annual Boron annual licensing fee.
General and administrative expenses increased substantially in the first quarter of 2008 compared to the year earlier period due to PowerVerdes operations. See the PowerVerde Plan of Operation set forth below.

Table of Contents
Interest income of $23,480 in the first quarter of 2008 was due to cancellation of accrued interest on a $200,000 promissory note converted to stock immediately prior to the Merger.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
We have financed our operations since inception primarily through the sale of debt and equity securities. As of March 31, 2008, we had a working capital surplus of $40,579 compared to a working capital deficit of $496,757 at March 31, 2007. The working capital deficit was reversed because, pursuant to the February 2008 Merger and related transactions, PowerVerde satisfied $433,000 of Vyrexs liabilities ($233,000 in accounts payable owed by Vyrex and $200,000 owed pursuant to a certain promissory note issued by Vyrex) and PowerVerde had cash on hand as of the time of the Merger.
As of the date of this Report, we have enough cash to sustain operations for approximately the next two months. Consequently, we need to promptly raise substantial additional capital in order to finance our plan of operations. We intend to seek the necessary funds though private debt and/or equity transactions. There can be no assurance that we will be able to raise the necessary funds on a timely basis. If we do not, we will be forced to cease operations.
Plan of Operation
General
The following plan of operation for our ongoing PowerVerde business provides information which our management believes is relevant to an assessment and understanding of our business, operations and financial condition.
We plan to mass produce patented renewable power systems using proven techniques established by high technology manufacturing companies such as Boeing. This outsourcing process utilizes other companies to produce many of the necessary parts which save the selling company the cost of buying machinery or establishing a large manufacturing facility with the attendant costs of salaries, benefits and overhead.
We are in a unique position to utilize such a system. One of the principals, George Konrad, owns and operates a manufacturing facility, Arizona Research and Development (ARD), which is capable of producing all of the manufactured parts needed for the PowerVerde renewable power systems. We intend to enter into an agreement with ARD to manufacture machined parts for the PowerVerde patented motor as well as assemble the motors and Organic Rankine Cycles, all on fair market terms. ARD will also test and qualify all systems under a rigid quality control program.
ARD has been involved in the development of the PowerVerde systems and is uniquely positioned to continue on to the manufacturing process.
All machining will be done by CNC lathes and machining centers owned by ARD. As production increases it may be necessary for ARD to subcontract certain components or enlarge the present facility.
The design and tooling process of rapid prototyping has been employed by PowerVerde and ARD throughout the developmental program using solid modeling CAD, Stereo lithography, Finite Element Analysis, Computerized Fluid Dynamics (CFD), CAM, CNC machining and other techniques developed by the aerospace industry. This process produces products that are ready to go into mass-produced manufacturing immediately upon completion of the testing program.
PowerVerde also intends to contract to local refrigeration specialty companies the job of installing and maintaining the power systems. The companies will be contracted in each area of market penetration.
We have no employees as of the date of this Report; however, we intend to add sales and marketing staff to promote the systems as soon as beta testing is complete, which is expected to occur by the end of the third quarter of 2008. We have not yet entered into any agreements for distribution or marketing of our products, and there can be no assurance that we will ever do so.

ARD will be responsible for maintaining inventory of all parts and materials.
PowerVerde will provide to ARD all manufacturing drawings, specifications, parts lists, material requirements, assembly manuals and quality control requirements relating to the systems to be produced.
