During the nine months ended September 30, 2007, the company sold 17,100 shares of treasury stock at $15.20 per share due to the exercise of options held by an employee. The total amount due from the sale of these shares was $259,920 of which $12,160 was collected prior to September 30, 2007 and the remaining $247,760 was collected in October of 2007.
The decrease in prepaid expenses and other current assets was adjusted by $247,760 to reflect the receivable from sale of treasury stock at September 30, 2007.
For the nine months ended September 30, 2007, the change in securities borrowed at fair market value is shown as part of Cash Flows from Investing Activities. The change in this amount for the nine months ended September 30, 2006 has been reclassified to the same category as the nine months ended September 30, 2007 in order to accurately reflect the type of activity that this account represents.

(1) BUSINESS AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
BUSINESS
Daxor Corporation is a medical device manufacturing company that offers additional biotech services, such as cryobanking, through its wholly owned subsidiary, Scientific Medical Systems Corp. The Company provides long-term frozen blood and semen storage services to enable individuals to store their own blood and semen. The main focus of Daxor Corporation has been the development of an instrument that rapidly and accurately measures human blood volume. This instrument is used in conjunction with a single use diagnostic injection and collection kit.
SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments of a normal recurring nature, which are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair statement of the financial position and results of operations for the interim periods presented. The condensed consolidated financial statements are unaudited and are subject to such year-end adjustments as may be considered appropriate and should be read in conjunction with the historical consolidated financial statements of Daxor Corporation for the years ended December 31, 2006, 2005 and 2004, included in Daxor Corporation’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2006. The December 31, 2006 condensed consolidated balance sheet data was derived from audited financial statements but does not include all disclosures required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Operating results for the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2007 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2007.
These condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with US GAAP and under the same accounting principles as the consolidated financial statements included in the Annual Report on Form 10-K. Certain information and footnote disclosures related thereto normally included in the financial statements prepared in accordance with US GAAP have been omitted in accordance with Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X.
Principles of Consolidation
The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Daxor Corporation and Scientific Medical Systems Corp, a wholly-owned subsidiary. All inter-company transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation.
Segment Reporting
The Company has two operating segments: Equipment Sales and Related Services, and Cryobanking and Related Services.
The Equipment Sales and Related Services segment comprises the Blood Volume Analyzer equipment and related activity. This includes equipment sales, equipment rentals, equipment delivery fees, BVA-100 kit sales and service contract revenues.
The Cryobanking and Related Services segment is comprised of activity relating to the storage of blood and semen, and related laboratory services and handling fees.
Although not deemed an operating segment, the Company reports a third business segment; Investment activity. This segment reports the activity of the Company’s Investment Portfolio. This includes all earnings, gains and losses, and expenses relating to these investments.
Use of Estimates
In order to prepare financial statements that conform to the requirements of US GAAP, management makes estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities as of the dates of the financial statements and the results of operations during the reporting periods. Actual results may differ from these estimates.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents include time deposits and short term investments with original maturities of three months or less. Normally, these short term investments consist of U.S. Treasury Bills. At September 30, 2007 and September 30, 2006 there were no short term investments included as cash equivalents.

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
September 30, 2007 and 2006 (Continued)

Available-for-Sale Securities
Available-for-sale securities represent investments in debt and equity securities (primarily common and preferred stock of electric utility companies) that management has determined meet the definition of available-for-sale under SFAS No. 115 - Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt and Equity Securities. Accordingly, these investments are stated at fair market value and all unrealized holding gains or losses are recorded in the Stockholders’ Equity section as Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income (Loss). Conversely, all realized gains, losses and earnings are recorded in the Statement of Operations under Other Income (Expense).
At certain times, the Company will engage in short selling of stock. When this occurs, the short position is marked to the market and recorded as a realized sale. Any gain or (loss) is recorded for the period presented.
Historical cost is used by the Company to determine all gains and losses, and fair market value is obtained by readily available market quotes on all securities.
Put and Call Options
As part of the company’s investment strategy put and call options are sold on various stocks the company is willing to buy or sell. The premiums received are deferred until such time as they are exercised or expire. In accordance with SFAS No. 133 - Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities, these options are marked to market for each reporting period using readily available market quotes, and this fair value adjustment is recorded as a gain or loss in the Statement of Operations.
Upon exercise, the value of the premium will adjust the basis of the underlying security bought or sold. Options that expire are recorded as income in the period they expire.
Receivable from Broker
The Receivable from Broker represents cash proceeds from sales of securities and dividends. These proceeds are kept in dividend bearing money market accounts.
Securities borrowed at fair value
When a call option that has been sold short is exercised, this creates a short position in the related common stock. The recorded cost of these short positions is the amount received on the sale of the stock plus the proceeds received from the underlying call option. These positions are shown on the Balance Sheet as “Securities borrowed at fair value” and the carrying value is reduced or increased at the end of each quarter by the mark to market adjustment which is recorded in accordance with SFAS No. 115 – Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt and Equity Securities.
Securities sold, not yet received at fair value
Some of the financial institutions who hold our securities do not increase our account with the cash proceeds on the sale of a short stock. In lieu of cash, our account receives a credit for the proceeds of the short sale. Cash is added to or subtracted from our account weekly based on the market value of our short positions. These securities are recorded by the Company as received but not delivered and are valued at their quoted market price.
Investment Goals, Strategies and Policies
The Company’s investment goals are capital preservation and maintaining returns on capital with a high degree of safety. These goals are accomplished through the following strategies and policies:
1. The Company maintains a diversified securities portfolio comprised primarily of dividend bearing electric utility common and preferred stocks. The Company also sells covered calls on portions of its portfolio and also sells puts on stocks it is willing to own. It also sells uncovered calls and will periodically have short positions of up to 10% of the value of its portfolio. The Company’s short position may temporarily rise to 15% of the Company’s portfolio without any specific action because of changes in valuation, but should not exceed this amount. The Company’s investment policy is to maintain a minimum of 85% of its portfolio in electric utilities. Investments in utilities are primarily in electric companies. Investments in non-utility stocks will not exceed 15% of the portfolio.

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Unaudited)
2. Investment in speculative issues, including short sales, maximum of 10%.
3. Limited use of options to increase yearly investment income.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
a. |
The use of “Call” Options. Covered options can be sold up to a maximum of 20% of the value of the portfolio. This provides extra income in addition to dividends received from the company’s investments. The risk of this strategy is that investments which the company may have preferred to retain can be called away. Therefore, a limitation of 20% is placed on the amount of stock on which options can be written. The amount of the portfolio on which options are actually written is usually between 3-10% of the portfolio. The historical turnover of the portfolio is such that the average holding period is in excess of five years for available for sale securities. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
b. |
The use of “Put” options. Put options are written on stocks which the company is willing to purchase. While the company does not have a high rate of turnover in its portfolio, there is some turnover; for example, due to preferred stocks being called back by the issuing company, or stocks being called away because call options have been written. If the stock does not go below the put exercise price, the company records the proceeds from the sale as income. If the put is exercised, the cost basis is reduced by the proceeds received from the sale of the put option. There may be occasions where the cost basis of the stock is lower than the market price at the time the option is exercised. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
c. |
Speculative Short Sales/Short Options. The company normally limits its speculative transactions to no more than 15% of the value of the portfolio. The company may sell uncovered calls on certain stocks. If the stock price does not rise to the price of the calls, the option is not exercised, and the company records the proceeds from the sale of the call as income. If the call is exercised, the company will have a short position in the related stock. The company then has the choice of covering the short position or selling a put against it. If the put is exercised, the short position is covered. The company’s current accounting policy is to mark to the market at the end of each quarter any short positions, and include it in the income statement. While the company may have so-called speculative positions equal to 15% of its accounts, in actual practice the short stock positions usually account for less than 5% of the assets of the company. |
Revenue Recognition
The Company recognizes operational revenues from several sources. The first source is the sale of equipment, the Blood Volume Analyzer, to customers. The second source is the sale and associated shipping revenues of single-use radioactive doses (Volumex) that are injected into the patient and measured by the Blood Volume Analyzer. The third source of revenue is service contracts on the Blood Volume Analyzer, after it has been sold to a customer. The fourth source of revenue is the storage fees associated with cryobanked blood and semen specimens. The fifth is lab revenues from laboratory services, and the sixth is revenue from donor semen sales.
The Company currently offers three different methods of purchasing the Blood Volume Analyzer equipment. A customer may purchase the equipment directly, lease the equipment, or rent the equipment on a month-to-month basis. The revenues generated by a direct sale or a monthly rental are recognized as revenue in the period in which the sale or rental occurs. If a customer selects the “lease” option, the Company refers the customer to a third party leasing company with whom it has established a relationship. If the lease is approved by the independent leasing company, the Company receives 100% of the sales proceeds from the leasing company and recognizes 100% of the revenue. The leasing company then deals directly with the customer with regard to lease payments and any related collections.
The sales of the single-use radioactive doses (Volumex) that are used in conjunction with the Blood Volume Analyzer are recognized as revenue in the period in which the sale occurs.
The storage fees associated with the cryobanked blood and semen samples are recognized as income in the period for which the fee applies. Although the Company historically offered annual storage fee contracts, effective October 1, 2005, the Company only offers storage term contracts of three months or less.

DAXOR CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARY
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
September 30, 2007 and 2006 (Continued)
(Unaudited)
Income Taxes
The Company accounts for income taxes under the provisions of SFAS No. 109 - Accounting for Income Taxes. This pronouncement requires recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for the estimated future tax consequences of events attributable to differences between the amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases and operating loss and tax credit carry forwards. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using tax rates in effect for the year in which the differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of changes in tax rates is recognized in the statement of operations in the period in which the enactment rate changes. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are reduced through the establishment of a valuation allowance at such time as, based on available evidence, it is more likely than not that the deferred tax assets will not be realized.
Comprehensive Income (Loss)
The Company reports components of comprehensive income under the requirements of SFAS No. 130 - Reporting Comprehensive Income. This statement establishes rules for the reporting of comprehensive income and requires certain transactions to be presented as separate components of stockholders’ equity. The Company currently reports the unrealized holding gains and losses on available-for-sale securities, net of deferred taxes, as accumulated other comprehensive income (loss).
Product Warrantees and Related Liabilities
When a Blood Volume Analyzer has been sold to a customer, the Company offers a one year warranty on the product, which covers all mechanical failures. This one year warranty is effective on the date of sale of the unit. All major components of the equipment are purchased and warranted by the original third party manufacturers. After the one year period expires, customers may purchase a service contract through the Company, which is usually offered in one-year increments. To date, the Company has not experienced any major mechanical failures on any equipment sold. In addition, the majority of the potential liability would revert to the original manufacturer. Due to this history, a liability has not been recorded with respect to product or warranty liability.
Historically, service contracts were recorded by the Company as deferred revenue and were amortized into income in the period in which they were earned. Effective January 1, 2006, the company offers service contracts priced on annual basis which are billed quarterly and revenue is earned in the same calendar quarter that it is billed. There were three hospitals that the Company billed during the quarter ended September 30, 2007 for the entire amount of their annual service contract. As at September 30, 2007 and December 31, 2006, deferred revenue pertaining to the historical service contracts was $9,458 and $0 respectively.
Stock Based Compensation
In December 2004, the FASB issued SFAS No. 123R - Share-Based Payment: An Amendment of FASB Statements No. 123, (“SFAS 123R”) which requires companies to recognize in the income statement the grant-date fair value of stock options and other equity-based compensation issued to employees. SFAS 123R is effective for financial statements issued for annual reporting periods that begin after June 15, 2005. In adopting SFAS No. 123R, the Company used the modified prospective transition method, as of January 1, 2006, the first day of the Company’s fiscal year 2006.
Under the modified prospective transition method, awards that are granted, modified or settled after the date of adoption will be measured and accounted for in accordance with SFAS 123R. Compensation cost for awards granted prior to, but not vested, as of the date SFAS 123R is adopted would be based on the grant date attributes originally used to value those awards for pro forma purposes under SFAS 123. The Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements as of, and for the nine months ended September 30, 2007, reflect the impact of SFAS No. 123R. In accordance with the modified prospective transition method, the Company’s consolidated financial statements for periods prior to January 1, 2006 have not been restated to reflect, and do not include, the impact of SFAS 123R.
SFAS 123R also requires the tax benefits associated with these share-based payments to be classified as financing activities in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows, rather than as operating cash flows as required under previous regulations.
At September 30, 2007, the Company has one stock-based compensation plan, the 2004 Stock Option Plan. This Plan allows for the issuance of a maximum of 200,000 shares of common stock or 5% of the outstanding balance of shares of the Company on the date of grant, whichever is greater. Under the provisions of the Option Plan, the exercise price of any stock options issued is a minimum of 110% of the closing market price of the Company’s stock on the grant date of the option.

DAXOR CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARY
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
September 30, 2007 and 2006 (Continued)
(Unaudited)
At September 30, 2007, there is a total unvested stock-based compensation expense of $ 15,720 and a total weighted average remaining term of .48 years. Total share-based compensation expense recognized in the Statement of Operations aggregated $23,065 for the nine months ended September 30, 2007 and $67,132 for nine months ended September 30, 2006.
The Company recognized $9,362 and $20,651 in total stock-based compensation expense in the Statement of Operations during the three months ended September 30, 2007 and September 30, 2006.
To calculate the option-based compensation under SFAS 123R, the Company used the Black-Scholes option-pricing model, which it had previously used for the valuation of option-based awards for its pro-forma information required under SFAS 123 for periods prior to fiscal 2006. The Company’s determination of fair value of option-based awards on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes model is affected by the Company’s stock price as well as assumptions regarding a number of subjective variables. These variables include, but are not limited to, the Company’s expected stock price volatility over the term of the awards, risk-free interest rate, and the expected life of the options. The risk-free interest rate is based on a treasury instrument whose term is consistent with the expected life of the stock options. The expected volatility, holding period, and forfeitures of options are based on historical experience.

On October 1, 2002 the Company granted options to an Officer of the Corporation giving him the right to purchase 20,000 shares of Daxor Common Stock at a price of $15.20. During the quarter ended September 30, 2007, the employee exercised 17,100 options and the remaining 2,900 expired without being exercised.
As part of this exercise of options, the Company sold 17,100 shares of Treasury stock for $15.20 during the quarter ended September 30, 2007 resulting in total proceeds due of $259,920. Of this amount, $ 12,160 was received prior to September 30, 2007 and the remainder was received in October of 2007.
(2) AVAILABLE-FOR-SALE SECURITIES
Upon adoption of SFAS No. 115 - Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt and Equity Securities, management has determined that the company’s portfolio is best characterized as “Available-For-Sale”. SFAS No. 115 requires these securities to be recorded at their fair market values, with the offsetting unrealized holding gains or losses being recorded as Comprehensive Income (Loss) in the Equity section of the Balance Sheet. The adoption of this pronouncement has resulted in an increase in the carrying value of the company’s available-for-sale securities, as of September 30, 2007 and December 31, 2006, of approximately 171.35% and 187.33%, respectively, over its historical cost.
In accordance with the provisions of SFAS No. 115, the adjustment in stockholders’ equity has been made net of the tax effect had these gains been realized.
The Company uses the historical cost method in the determination of its realized and unrealized gains and losses. The following tables summarize the Company’s investments as of:

(Unaudited)
On January 3, 2007, Daxor closed on the purchase of 3.5 acres of land at 107 and 109 Meco Lane, Oak Ridge, Tennessee that contains two separate 10,000 square foot buildings. The buildings were constructed in 2004 and each structure is a single story steel frame with metal shell and roof constructed on a concrete slab. The total purchase price for the land and buildings including closing costs was $784,064.
The build out of the buildings in Oak Ridge commenced in the beginning of July of 2007 after the Company received the necessary state and local permits and licenses and the company moved in to the new buildings during the first week of October 2007.
(5) LOANS AND MORTGAGE PAYABLE

(6) PUT AND CALL OPTIONS
As part of the company’s investment strategy, put and call options are sold on various stocks the company is willing to buy or sell. The premiums received are deferred until such time as they are exercised or expire. In accordance with SFAS No. 133 - Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities, these options are marked to market for each reporting period using readily available market quotes, and this fair value adjustment is recorded as a gain or loss in the Statement of Operations.
Upon exercise, the value of the premium will adjust the basis of the underlying security bought or sold. Options that expire are recorded as income in the period they expire.
The following summarizes the Company’s Put and Call Options as of September 30, 2007 and December 31, 2006.

(7) SECURITIES BORROWED AT FAIR MARKET VALUE
At September 30, 2007 and December 31, 2006, the Company maintained short positions in certain marketable securities. The liability for short sales of securities is included in “Securities borrowed at fair market value” in the accompanying balance sheets. The cost basis of these positions or proceeds for these short sales were $6,293,306 and $10,166,081 at September 30, 2007 and December 31, 2006 respectively and had respective market values of $6,775,375 and $10,665,722, resulting in mark to market adjustments of ($482,069) and ($499,641) at September 30, 2007 and December 31, 2006.
(8) CURRENT INCOME TAXES
The Company, due to current losses and loss carry forwards from previous years, has not accrued or paid taxes based on income. It has, however, paid State and City taxes which were assessed on its Capital Base. In accordance with SFAS No. 109 - Accounting for Income Taxes, these Capital Base assessments were not classified as income taxes and are included as part of selling, general and administrative expenses.
(9) DEFERRED INCOME TAXES
Deferred income taxes result from differences in the recognition of gains and losses on marketable securities, as well as operating loss carry forwards, for tax and financial statement purposes. The deferred income tax results in a liability for the marketable securities, while the operating loss carry forwards result in a deferred tax asset.
The deferred tax liability that results from the marketable securities does not flow through the Statement of Operations due to the classification of the marketable securities as available-for-sale. Instead, any increase or decrease in the deferred tax liability is recorded as an adjustment to Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income which is in the Stockholders’ Equity section of the Balance Sheet.
At September 30, 2007, the Company has approximately $8.8 million in net operating loss available as a carry forward. These losses will expire between the years ending December 31, 2015 and 2026 and give rise to deferred tax assets. However, a valuation allowance has been recorded for the entire deferred tax asset as a result of uncertainties regarding the realization of the asset due to the history of losses and the variability of operating results.
While the Company has a deferred tax liability on unrealized portfolio gains, at present it is not management’s intention to liquidate it’s holdings in order to utilize these loss carryovers. Some holdings may be periodically liquidated on an involuntary basis when the Company receives a cash only offer as the result of a merger. If there is an option to receive stock instead of cash, the Company will usually elect to receive stock.
The deferred tax computations at September 30, 2007 and December 31, 2006, computed at federal statutory rates of 35%, are as follows:

(10) CERTAIN CONCENTRATIONS AND CONTINGENCIES
Financial instruments which potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist primarily of the common stock of marketable electric utilities. At September 30, 2007, stocks representing 98.11% of the market value of common stocks held by the Company were listed on either the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE) or the American Stock Exchange (AMEX). The Company maintains its investments in six different brokerage accounts, four at UBS, one at Merrill Lynch and one at JP Morgan Chase. The limits of this insurance which is offered by the Securities Investor Protection Corporation (SIPC) is up to $100,000 for the total amount of cash on deposit and up to $500,000 for the total amount of securities held at Merrill Lynch and JP Morgan Chase. UBS provides supplemental insurance up to the face value of the securities in excess of the SIPC limit of $500,000.

Each of these brokerage houses is well known in the industry and management does not believe that these securities bear any risk of loss over and above the basic risk that a security bears through the normal activity of the securities markets. However, as at September 30, 2007, the fair market value of securities in excess of the SIPC insured limit is $36,376,747 and the cash on deposit in excess of the insured limit is $6,978,204.
For the nine months ended September 30, 2007 there were seven customers (hospitals) that accounted for 47.42% of the Company’s total consolidated sales. Management believes that the loss of any one customer would have an adverse effect on the Company’s consolidated business for a short period of time. All seven of these hospitals have purchased their BVA-100 equipment. The Company has not had any situations in which a hospital, after having purchased a blood volume analyzer, discontinued purchasing Volumex kits. This suggests that, when more hospitals purchase equipment, they will continue with ongoing purchase of Volumex kits. The Company continues to seek new customers, so that any one hospital will represent a smaller percentage of overall sales.
The Company’s Volumex syringes are filled by an FDA approved radio pharmaceutical manufacturer. This manufacturer is the only one approved by the FDA in the United States to manufacture Volumex for interstate commerce. If this manufacturer were to cease filling the Volumex syringes for Daxor before the Company had a chance to make alternative arrangements, the effect on Daxor’s business could be material.
As discussed in our Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2006, by a letter dated February 8, 2007, the staff of the Northeast Regional Office of the United States Securities and Exchange Commission advised Dr. Joseph Feldschuh, the President and Chief Executive Officer of Daxor that it is recommending that the Commission bring action against Dr. Feldschuh and Daxor Corporation for violation of Section 7(a) of the Investment Company Act. The company responded to the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 9, 2007.
The company received a notice from the SEC in November of 2005 about whether or not it should be designated as an investment company. The company responded to this notice on January 13, 2006. The Company has provided extensive documentation directly to the SEC and in the 10-K filing for the year ended December 31, 2006 as to why it is primarily an operating company and not primarily an investment company.
In June of 2007, the Company received a verbal request from the Northeast Regional Office of the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) for information pertaining to discussions that had taken place at previous meetings with representatives of the SEC in 1984 and 1992. The Company has complied with this request.
As discussed in our Form 10-Q for the quarters ended March 31, 2007 and June 30, 2007, the company cannot determine whether the Commission will decide to bring an enforcement action against either the Company or its Chief Executive Officer, nor can the Company determine the nature or amount of any legal or other regulatory penalties or sanctions that may be imposed.
A resolution was passed at the Board of Directors meeting of March 23, 2007 whereby the Company agreed to indemnify the Chief Executive Officer for any expenses he may incur if the Securities and Exchange Commission brings an enforcement action against him as specified in their letter of February 8, 2007.
(11) Research and Development Costs
All research and development costs, as defined in SFAS No. 2 – Accounting for Research and Development Costs, are expensed in the period they are incurred.
Research and development costs for the three months ended September 30, 2007 and 2006 were $636,698 and $573,817, respectively.
Research and development costs for the nine months ended September 30, 2007 and 2006 were $1,899,468 and $1,759,468, respectively.

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
September 30, 2007 and 2006 (Continued)
(Unaudited)
(12) Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements
The Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) periodically issues new accounting standards in a continuing effort to improve standards of financial accounting and reporting. Daxor has reviewed the recently issued pronouncements and concluded that the following new accounting standards are applicable to the Company.
In February 2006, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 155 “Accounting for Certain Hybrid Financial Instruments” amending SFAS No. 133 and SFAS No. 140. SFAS No. 155 eliminates the exemption from applying SFAS No. 133 to securitized financial assets. The provisions of SFAS No. 155 are to be applied to financial instruments issued or acquired during fiscal periods beginning after September 15, 2006. The adoption of SFAS No. 155 is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s financial position or results of operations.
FASB Interpretation No. 48 “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes” (FIN 48) was issued in June 2006. It clarifies recognition and derecognition criteria for tax positions taken in a return that may be subject to challenge upon audit. If it is “more likely than not,” that the tax position will be sustained upon examination, the benefit is to be recognized in the financial statements. Conversely, if the position is less likely than not to be sustained, the benefit should not be recognized. The recognition/derecognition decision should be reflected in the first interim period when the status changes and not deferred to a future settlement upon audit. General tax reserves to cover aggressive positions taken in filed returns are no longer allowable. Each issue must be judged on its own merits and a recognition/derecognition decision recorded in the financial statements. FIN 48 is effective f or fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2006. Because the Company knowingly takes no aggressive positions in its tax returns and accordingly, carries no income tax “reserves” on its books, this Interpretation is not expected to have a material effect on the Company’s financial position or results of operations in future periods.
In September 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 157 “Fair Value Measurements” which amends and puts in one place guidance on the use of fair value measurements which had been spread through four APB Opinions and 37 FASB Standards. No extensions of the use of fair value measurements are contained in this new pronouncement, and with some special industry exceptions (e.g., broker-dealers), no significant changes in practice should ensue. The standard is to be applied to financial statements beginning after November 15, 2007. The adoption of SFAS No. 157 is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s financial position or results of operations.
Also in September 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 158 “Employers’ Accounting for Defined Benefit Pension Plans and Other Postretirement Plans – an amendment of FASB Statements No. 87, 88, 106 and 132(R)”. This standard requires recognition in the balance sheet of the funded status of pension plans, rather than footnote disclosure which has been current practice. Publicly traded companies are to reflect the new standard in financial statements ending after December 15, 2006, and non-public companies are to apply it in statements ending after June 15, 2007. Because the Company does not maintain a defined benefit pension plan and has no plans to do so, this standard should not have any impact on the Company’s financial position or results of operations.
In February 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 159 “Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities – including an amendment of FASB Statement No. 115”. This standard permits the use of fair value measurement of financial assets and liabilities in the balance sheet with the net change in fair value recognized in periodic net income. The Standard is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007. The adoption of this standard is not expected to have a material effect on the Company’s financial position or results of operations because the majority of its debts and investment assets are variable rate and thus fair value approximates recorded value.
F-18
ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF
OPERATIONS
RECENT DEVELOPMENTS
The Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) recently announced implementation of a significant policy change affecting the reimbursement for all diagnostic radiopharmaceutical products and contrast agents which will be effective as of January 1, 2008. Diagnostic radiopharmaceuticals such as Daxor’s Volumex will not be separately reimbursable by Medicare for outpatient services. At this time, it is unclear if this policy change will also be implemented by private third party health insurance companies or non-hospital providers.
The current reimbursement for hospital outpatients includes payment for both the cost of the procedure to perform a blood volume analysis (BVA) and the radiopharmaceutical (Daxor’s Volumex radiopharmaceutical). CMS’s new policy which is currently set to become effective as of January 1, 2008 will only include the reimbursement for the procedure and would require the hospital to absorb the cost of the radiopharmaceutical. There will be an upward adjustment for the procedure code to include some of the costs of the radiopharmaceutical. However, this upward adjustment may not entirely cover the costs associated with the procedure and the radiopharmaceutical.
Many medical societies and major manufacturers of radiopharmaceuticals and contrast agents are currently engaged in an aggressive attempt to reverse this ruling. The Company has had similar issues in the past that have negatively impaired revenue from operations. This particular issue may have a similar impact. However, at the present time, the Company is unable to quantify what the effect of this ruling will be on revenue from operations for the year ending December 31, 2008.
The Company made an agreement effective September 1, 2007 with an officer and Vice President of Sales and Marketing of the Corporation.
Under the terms of this agreement, Daxor will provide employment to this individual for no less than five years. This five year term began on September 1, 2007. The minimum annual salary for the term of this agreement is $145,000 per year. The payment of the salary and any additional yearly increases shall occur as is the current practice, policy and procedure for Daxor salaried employees. The employee is guaranteed a minimum annual bonus of $25,000.
The employee was granted 20,000 options to purchase Daxor Corporation Stock at an exercise price of $17.32 per share. In accordance with the 2004 Stock Option plan, these options were granted at 110% of the closing price on the date of the grant which was October 1, 2007. The options vest on October 1, 2008.
Daxor is paying a monthly rental subsidy of $4,000 from September 1, 2007 through August 31, 2008. This monthly subusidy decreases to $3,500 from September 1, 2008 through August 31, 2009.
The Company will provide a mortgage loan of $300,000 to enable the employee to purchase a home within reasonable commuting distance of Daxor Company Headquarters in New York City. The mortgage will be at a yearly rate of two percent and will be payable over 30 years.
Daxor will pay the employee one year of annual compensation including salary, incentive compensation, medical benefits, relocation rental expense, loan benefit and stock options in the event of termination due to any adverse change in employment excluding termination due to cause and termination by employee.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Three months ended September 30, 2007 as compared with three months ended September 30, 2006:
Operating Revenues and Expenses
For the three months ended September 30, 2007, operating revenues decreased to $349,547 vs. $420,140 in 2006, a decrease of $70,593 or 16.80%. This decrease was mainly the result of no Blood Volume Analyzers being sold during the third quarter of 2007 versus the sale of one Blood Volume Analyzer during the same period in 2006 for a total of $65,000.
For the three months ended September 30, 2007, revenue from Blood volume kit sales decreased by 1.00% vs. the same period in 2006 even though the amount of kits sold was down by 17.35% from 775 to 644. For the three months ended September 30, 2007, the Company provided 100 Volumex doses free of charge to facilities utilizing the BVA-100 for research versus 44 during the same period in 2006. Effective February 1, 2007, the Company raised prices by approximately 5% on Blood Volume Kits. This was the first price increase in two years and helped to reduce the impact of fewer kits being sold on gross revenue from kit sales.

There were no Blood Volume Analyzers sold during the three months ended September 30, 2007. Even though there were no sales of instruments during the quarter, costs associated with production were still incurred. The revenue of $22,989 for Equipment Sales and Other consists almost entirely of shipping charges and service contract revenue.
During the current quarter, there were also three trial agreements signed for the BVA-100 Blood Volume Analyzer versus three for the same period in 2006. Trial agreements on a clinical basis require the Hospitals to pay for kits that they use while they have the equipment on a trial basis. The only exception are those facilities who are conducting research utilizing the BVA-100 and therefore, the Company has agreed to supply those Volumex doses free of charge (this includes the shipping costs and all disposables associated with the study).
Total S G & A (selling, general and administrative) and R&D (Research and Development) costs for Equipment Sales and Related Services were $1,489,098 for the three months ended September 30, 2007 versus $ 1,416,110 for the same period in 2006, for an increase of $72,988 or 5.15%. The main reason for this increase was an additional $49,741 in payroll and related expenses for the three months ended September 30, 2007.
Research & Development expenses for Equipment Sales and Related Services were $600,201 for the three months ended September 30, 2007 vs. $543,057 for the same period in 2006 which is an increase of $57,144 or 10.52%. Daxor is committed to making Blood Volume Analysis a standard of care in at least three different disease states. In order to achieve this goal, we are continuing to spend time and money in research and development to get the best product to the market. We are still working on the following three projects: 1) GFR: Glomerular Filtration Rate, 2) Total Body Albumin Analysis, and 3) Wipes tests for radiation contamination/detection. We are also progressing on the next version of the delivery device for
-4-
the radioactive dose Volumex. The current version is the “Max-100” which has a patent. The next version, the “Max-200” will be without a needle and should afford the company extended protection with a second patent when it is completed.
Operating revenues for the cryobanking segment, which includes both blood banking and semen banking, increased from $93,830 in 2006 to $103,284 in 2007, for an increase of $9,454 or 10.07%. The main reasons for this was increases in semen processing revenues of $4,260 and lab testing revenues of $2,432.
Total S G & A (selling, general and administrative) and R&D (Research and Development) costs for the Cryobanking and related services segment were $209,038 for the three months ended September 30, 2007 vs. $106,889 for the same period in 2006, for an increase of $102,149 or 95.56%. The main reason for this increase is the allocation of $81,008 of salaries and rent paid by the Equipment Sales and Related Services segment applicable to Cryobanking.
Operating Expenses and Cost of Goods Sold
Daxor’s total expenses from operations and cost of goods sold for the third quarter of 2007 were $1,918,386 versus $1,663,524 in 2006 for an increase of $254,862 or 15.32%. This increase in operating expenses and cost of goods sold is mostly due to increases in payroll and related expenses of $80,196 and cost of goods sold of $79,413.
INVESTMENT PORTFOLIO
Dividend Income
Dividend income earned on the Company’s security portfolio for the three months ended September 30, 2007 was $711,578 versus $580,578 for the same period in 2006 for an increase of $131,000 or 22.56%.
Investment Gains
Gains on the sale of investments were $6,110,405 for the three months ended September 30, 2007 versus $566,606 for the same period in 2006 for an increase of $5,543,799 or 978.42%. For the current quarter, the Company had a loss from the marking to the market on short positions of stocks and put and call options of $3,251,811 versus a loss of $734,010 for the same period in 2006 for an increase of $2,517,801 or 343.01%. Interest expense net of interest income was $25,865 for the three months ended September 30, 2007 versus $93,294 for the three months ended September 30, 2006 for a decrease of $67,429 or 72.27%. Administrative expenses relating to portfolio investments were $13,479 in 2007 versus $ 10,286 for the same period in 2006 for an increase of $3,193 or 31.04%. A detailed description of investment policies and historical records over the past 14 years was included in the recent 10-K filing for year end December 31, 2006.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
The Company’s management has pursued a policy of maintaining sufficient liquidity and capital resources in order to assure continued availability of necessary funds for the viability and projected growth of all ongoing projects.
At September 30, 2007 the Company had total assets of $82,774,691 with stockholders’ equity of $51,871,218 as compared to total assets of $78,166,312 with stockholders’ equity of $45,637,792 at December 31, 2006. At September 30, 2007, the Company had a net unrealized gain on available for sale securities of $42,531,097 and a deferred tax liability of $14,885,884 for net unrealized capital gains on available-for-sale securities of $27,645,213. At December 31, 2006, the company had a net unrealized gain of $43,661,056 and a deferred tax liability of $15,281,370 for net unrealized capital gains on available-for-sale securities of $28,379,686. These amounts are included in the calculation of Total Stockholders’ Equity. At September 30, 2007, the Company’s available for sale securities had a fair market value of $67,351,942 with short-term loans payable of $127,050 and a receivable due from brokers of $7,378,204. The Company has current liabilities of $30,463,238 which includes the deferred tax liability of $14,885,884 and the short term loans payable of $127,050. The
-5-
deferred tax liability would be due if the Company chose to sell its entire portfolio. The Company’s investment portfolio has been a critical source of supplemental income to partially offset the continuing losses from operations. Without this income, the Company would have been in a precarious financial situation because of its operating losses over the past ten years. The Company’s portfolio has maintained a net value above historical cost for each of the past 91 consecutive quarters.
The Company currently has adequate resources for the current level of marketing and research and development expenses for the BVA-100 Blood Volume Analyzer as well as capital to sustain its localized semen and blood banking services. The Company may not, at the present time, have adequate resources to expand its marketing force to all areas of the country. The Company is simultaneously expanding its research and development efforts to develop additional instrumentation for renal function testing, specifically glomerular filtration testing. The Company recently explored the potential for raising additional capital but the terms would have been disadvantageous to existing shareholders. The current primary focus is on the BVA-100 Blood Volume Analyzer with respect to expenditure of resources. The Company anticipates hiring additional regional managers to the existing sales/marketing team. It is the goal of the marketing team to develop an individual sales team for each regional manager. The Company is also expanding its support services personnel.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Nine months ended September 30, 2007 as compared with nine months ended September 30, 2006:
Operating Revenues and Expenses
For the nine months ended September 30, 2007, operating revenues increased to $1,400,747 vs. $1,151,608 for the same period in 2006, an increase of $249,139 or 21.63%. This increase was mainly the result of the sale of five Blood Volume Analyzers during the first nine months of 2007 for a total of $325,500 versus the sale of two Blood Volume Analyzer during the same period in 2006 for a total of $130,000. The increase in sales revenue from Blood Volume Analyzers can be attributed to the increased focus on securing purchase agreements from customers who have clinical trial agreements. The company engages in clinical trial agreements to allow customers to begin utilization of the instrument and to become familiar with the clinical benefit of a measured blood volume prior to the purchase of the instrument.
For the nine months ended September 30, 2007, revenue from Blood volume kit sales increased by 8.96% vs. the same period in 2006 and the amount of kits sold decreased by 2.55% from 2,154 to 2,099. For the nine months ended September 30, 2007, the Company provided 298 Volumex doses free of charge to facilities utilizing the BVA-100 for research versus 166 during the same period in 2006. There were 55 Blood Volume Analyzers placed at September 30, 2007 versus 44 instruments placed at September 30, 2006. Effective February 1, 2007, the Company raised prices by approximately 5% on Blood Volume Kits. This was the first price increase in two years and also helped to increase gross revenue from kit sales.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2007 there were also eleven trial agreements signed for the BVA-100 Blood Volume Analyzer versus eleven for the same period in 2006. Trial agreements on a clinical basis require the Hospitals to pay for kits that they use while they have the equipment on a trial basis. The only exception are those facilities who are
-6-
conducting research utilizing the BVA-100 and therefore, the Company has agreed to supply those Volumex doses free of charge (this includes the shipping costs and all disposables associated with the study).
Total S G & A (selling, general and administrative) and R&D (Research and Development) costs for Equipment Sales and Related Services were $4,237,206 for the nine months ended September 30, 2007 versus $ 4,399,542 for the same period in 2006, for a decrease of $162,336 or 3.69%. The major reason for this decrease is that $274,344 of salaries and rent paid by Daxor during the current period were allocated to the Cryobanking segment. This allocation was not done in 2006. The allocation is shown as part of selling general and administrative expenses and has no effect on consolidated expenses.
Research & Development expenses for Equipment Sales and Related Services were $1,759,945 for the nine months ended September 30, 2007 vs. $1,659,625 for the same period in 2006 which represents an increase of $100,320 or 6.04%. Daxor is committed to making Blood Volume Analysis a standard of care in at least three different disease states. In order to achieve this goal, we are continuing to spend time and money in research and development to get the best product to the market. We are still working on the following three projects: 1) GFR: Glomerular Filtration Rate, 2) Total Body Albumin Analysis, and 3) Wipes tests for radiation contamination/detection. We are also progressing on the next version of the delivery device for the radioactive dose Volumex. The current version is the “Max-100” which has a patent. The next version, the “Max-200” will be without a needle and should afford the company ex tended protection with a second patent when it is completed.
Operating revenues for the cryobanking segment, which includes both blood banking and semen banking, decreased from $324,826 during the nine months ended September 30, 2006 to $321,800 for the same period in 2007, for a decrease of $3,026 or 0.93%. This was due mainly to a decrease of $15,594 in semen storage fees.
Total S G & A (selling, general and administrative) and R&D (Research and Development) costs for the Cryobanking and related services segment were $655,698 for the nine months ended September 30, 2007 vs. $324,776 for the same period in 2006, for an increase of $330,922 or 101.89%. The major reason for this increase is the allocation of $274,344 of salaries and rent paid by the Equipment Sales and Related Services segment applicable to Cryobanking.
Operating Expenses
Daxor’s total expenses from operations not including cost of goods sold for the nine months ended September 30, 2007 were $4,892,904 versus $4,724,318 in 2006 for an increase of $168,586 or 3.56%. The major reason for this increase was an additional $104,769 of payroll and related expenses for the nine months ended September 30, 2007 versus the same period in 2006.
INVESTMENT PORTFOLIO
Dividend Income
Dividend income earned on the Company’s security portfolio for the nine months ended September 30, 2007 was $1,942,178 versus $1,617,129 for the same period in 2006 for an increase of $325,049 or 20.10%. This increase is due mostly to a one-time special dividend of $156,200 on one stock in the Company’s portfolio and an increase of $52,742 in money market dividends.
Investment Gains
Gains on the sale of investments were $9,551,357 for the nine months ended September 30, 2007 versus $2,041,145 for the same period in 2006 for an increase of $7,510,212 or 367.94%. For the current period, the Company had a gain from the marking to the market on short positions of stocks and put and call options of $79,021 versus a loss of $150,331 for the same period in 2006 for an increase of $229,352 or 152.65%. Interest expense net of interest income was $154,713 for the nine months ended September 30, 2007 versus $278,827 in 2006 for the same period in 2006 for a decrease of $124,114 or 44.51%. Administrative expenses relating to portfolio investments were $37,400 for the nine months ended September 30, 2007 versus $ 31,532 for the same period in 2006 for an increase of $5,868 or 18.61%. A detailed description of investment policies and historical records over the past 14 years was included in the recent 10-K filing for the year ended December 31, 2006.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The consolidated financial statements and accompanying footnotes included in this report have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States with certain amounts based on management’s best estimates and judgments. To determine appropriate carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily available from other sources, management uses assumptions based on historical results and other factors that they believe are reasonable. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
The Company adopted SFAS No. 123R - Share-Based Payments, effective January 1, 2006, utilizing the “modified prospective” method. Under the “modified prospective” method, compensation cost is recognized for all share-based payments granted after the effective date and for all unvested awards granted prior to the effective date. Prior to adoption, the Company accounted for share-based payments under the recognition and measurement principles of Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25 - Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees, and related interpretations. The Company recognized $ 23,065 and $67,132 in total stock-based compensation expense during the nine months ended September 30, 2007 and September 30, 2006.
The Company recognized $9,362 and $20,651 in total stock-based compensation expense during the three months ended September 30, 2007 and September 30, 2006.
Total unvested stock-based compensation expense was $15,720 at September 30, 2007 and had a total weighted average remaining term of .48 years. See Footnote #1 for more information on stock-based compensation.
The following is a summary of the accounting policies that the Company has deemed critical for reporting purposes in Form 10-Q at September 30, 2007. However, a comprehensive discussion of the Company’s critical accounting policies and management estimates is included in Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2006. There have been no significant changes in critical accounting policies or management estimates since the year ended December 31, 2006.
Available-for-Sale Securities
Available-for-sale securities represent investments in debt and equity securities (primarily common and preferred stock of utility companies) that management has determined meet the definition of available-for-sale securities under SFAS No. 115 - Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt and Equity Securities. Accordingly, these investments are stated at fair market value and all unrealized holding gains or losses are recorded in the Stockholders’ Equity section as Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income (Loss). Conversely, all realized gains, losses and earnings are recorded in the Statement of Operations under Other Income (Expense).
The company will also periodically engage in short selling of common stock. When this occurs, the short position is marked to the market and this adjustment is recorded in the Statement of Operations. Any gain or loss is recorded in the period presented.
Historical cost is used by the Company to determine all gains and losses, and fair market value is obtained by readily available market quotes on all securities.
The Company’s investment goals, strategies and policies are as follows:
1. The Company’s investment goals are capital preservation and maintaining returns on capital with a high degree of safety.
2. The Company maintains a diversified securities portfolio comprised primarily of electric utility common and preferred stocks. The Company also sells covered calls on portions of its portfolio and also sells puts on stocks it is willing to own. It also sells uncovered calls and may have short positions in common stock up to 10% of the value of the portfolio. The Company’s short position may temporarily rise to 15% of the Company’s portfolio without any specific action because of
-8-
changes in valuation, but should not exceed this amount. The Company’s investment policy is to maintain a minimum of 85% of its portfolio in electric utilities. Investments in utilities are primarily in electric companies. Investments in non-utility stocks will not exceed 15% of the portfolio.
3. Investment in speculative issues, including short sales, maximum of 10%.
4. Limited use of options to increase yearly investment income.
|
|
|
|
|
|
a. |
The use of “Call” Options. Covered options can be sold up to a maximum of 20% of the value of the portfolio. This provides extra income in addition to dividends received from the company’s investments. The risk of this strategy is that investments may be called away, which the company may have preferred to retain. Therefore, a limitation of 20% is placed on the amount of stock on which options can be written. The amount of the portfolio on which options are actually written is usually between 3-10% of the portfolio. The historical turnover of the portfolio is such that the average holding period is in excess of 5 years for available for sale securities. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
b. |
The use of “Put” options. Put options are written on stocks which the company is willing to purchase. While the company does not have a high rate of turnover in its portfolio, there is some turnover; for example, due to preferred stocks being called back by the issuing company, or stocks being called away because call options have been written. If the stock does not go below the put exercise price, the company records the proceeds from the sale as income. If the put is exercised, the cost basis is reduced by the proceeds received from the sale of the put option. There may be occasions where the cost basis of the stock is lower than the market price at the time the option is exercised. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
c. |
Speculative Short Sales/Short Options. The company normally limits its speculative transactions to no more than 15% of the value of the portfolio. The company may sell uncovered calls on certain stocks. If the stock price does not rise to the price of the call, the option is not exercised and the company records the proceeds from the sale of the call as income. If the call is exercised, the company will have a short position in the related stock. The company then has the choice of covering the short position, or selling a put against it. If the put is exercised, then the short position is covered. The company’s current accounting policy is to mark to the market at the end of each quarter any short positions, and include it in the income statement. While the company may have so-called speculative positions equal to 15% of its accounts, in actual practice the short stock positions usually account for less than 5% of the assets of the company. |
The income derived from these investments has been essential to help offset the research, operating and marketing expenses of developing the Blood Volume Analyzer. The Company has followed a conservative policy of assuring adequate liquidity so that it can expand its marketing and research and development without the sudden necessity of raising additional capital. The securities in the Company’s portfolio are selected to provide stability of both income and capital. The Company has been able to achieve financial stability because of these returns, which have covered a significant portion of the Company’s continuing losses from operations. The Company’s investment policy is reviewed at least once yearly by the Board of Directors and the Audit Committee. Individual investment decisions are made solely by Dr. Joseph Feldschuh, CEO, who devotes approximately 5 to 7.5 hours per week to this activity. He is assisted by a single part-time employee. No other member of the Company is involved in individual investment decisions.
Revenue Recognition
The Company recognizes operational revenues from several sources. The first source is the outright sale of equipment, the Blood Volume Analyzer, to customers. The second source is the sale and associated shipping revenues of single-use radioactive doses (Volumex) that are injected into the patient and measured by the Blood Volume Analyzer. The third source of revenue is service contracts on the Blood Volume Analyzer, after it has been sold to a customer. The fourth source of revenue is the storage fees associated with cryobanked blood and semen specimens. The fifth is lab revenues from laboratory services, and the sixth is revenue from semen sales.
The Company currently offers three different methods of purchasing the Blood Volume Analyzer equipment. A customer may purchase the equipment directly, lease the equipment, or rent the equipment on a month-to-month basis. The revenues
-9-
generated by a direct sale or a monthly rental are recognized as revenue in the period in which the sale or rental occurred. If a customer is to select the “lease” option, the Company refers its customer to a third party finance company with which it has established a relationship, and if the lease is approved, the Company receives 100% of the sales proceeds from the finance company and recognizes 100% of the revenue. The finance company then deals directly with the customer with regard to lease payments and related collections.
The sales of the single-use radioactive doses (Volumex) that are used in conjunction with the Blood Volume Analyzer are recognized as revenue in the period in which the sale occurred.
When Blood Volume Analyzer equipment has been sold to a customer, the Company offers a one year warranty on the product, which covers all mechanical failures. This one year warranty is effective on the date of sale of the equipment. After the one year period expires, customers may purchase a service contract through the Company, which is usually offered in one-year, three year or five year increments. These service contracts are billed quarterly and therefore the revenue is earned in the quarter invoiced.
The storage fees associated with the cryobanked blood and semen samples are recognized as income in the period for which the fee applies. Although the Company historically offered annual storage fee contracts, effective October 1, 2005, the Company only offers storage term contracts of three months or less.
Comprehensive Income (Loss)
The Company reports components of comprehensive income under the requirements of SFAS No. 130 - Reporting Comprehensive Income. This statement establishes rules for the reporting of comprehensive income and requires certain transactions to be presented as separate components of stockholders’ equity. The Company currently reports the unrealized holding gains and losses on available-for-sale securities, net of deferred taxes, as accumulated other comprehensive income (loss).
Product Warrantees and Related Liabilities
The Company offers a one year warranty on the Blood Volume Analyzer equipment. This warranty is effective on the date of sale and covers all mechanical failures of the equipment. All major components of the equipment are purchased and warranted by the original third party manufacturers.
Once the initial one year warranty period has expired, customers may purchase annual service contracts for the equipment. These service contracts warranty the mechanical failures of the equipment that are not associated with normal wear-and-tear of the components.
To date, the Company has not experienced any major mechanical failures on any equipment sold. In addition, the majority of the potential liability would revert to the original manufacturer. Due to this favorable history, a liability has not been recorded with respect to product warranty liability.
Income Taxes
The Company accounts for income taxes under the provisions of SFAS No. 109 - Accounting for Income Taxes. This pronouncement requires recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for the estimated future tax consequences of events attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases and operating loss and tax credit carry forwards. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates in effect for the year in which the differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of changes in tax rates is recognized in the statement of operations in the period in which the enactment rate changes. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are reduced through the establishment of a valuation allowance at such time as, based on available evidence, it is more likely than not that the deferred tax assets will not be realized.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
The Securities and Exchange Commission’s rule related to market risk disclosure requires that we describe and quantify our potential losses from market risk sensitive instruments attributable to reasonably possible market changes. Market risk sensitive instruments include all financial or commodity instruments and other financial instruments that are sensitive to future changes in interest rates, currency exchange rates, commodity prices or other market factors.
We are not exposed to market risks from changes in foreign currency rates. The company maintains an investment portfolio primarily consisting of electric utility companies which are publicly traded common and preferred stock. These are categorized as available-for-sale securities.
In addition to receiving income from dividends, the company also has an investment policy of selling puts on stocks that it is willing to own. Such options usually have a maturity of less than 1 year. The company will also sell covered calls on securities within its investment portfolio. Covered calls involve stocks, which usually do not exceed 10% of the value of the company’s portfolio and have never exceeded 15% of the company’s portfolio value.
The company will, at times, sell naked or uncovered calls, as well as, engage in short sales as part of a strategy to mitigate risk. Such short sales are usually less than 15% of the company’s portfolio value.
Puts, calls and short sales, collectively referred to as short positions, are all marked to market for each reporting period and any gain or loss is recognized through the Statement of Operations and labeled as “Mark to market of short positions”.
The company’s investment strategy is reviewed at least once a year, and more frequently as needed, at board meetings. The company’s investing policy permits investment in non-electric utilities for up to 15% of the corporate portfolio value.
At September 30, 2007 unrealized gains were $43,589,833 and unrealized losses were ($1,058,736) on available for sale securities for a ratio of 41 to 1.
Certain utility preferred stocks have call provisions which may enable them to be called away from the company. The call price, in all instances, is higher than the company’s cost for the stock. The yields on such preferred stocks may be significantly higher than current available yields. Such stocks, therefore, could not be replaced with similar yields. At September 30, 2007, 1.75% of the market value of the company’s available for sale securities is made up of preferred stock.
At September 30, 2007, 97.73% of the market value of the company’s available for sale securities is made up of common stock. There is a risk that any of these stocks could be sold as the result of an involuntary tender offer and that the security could not be replaced with an investment offering a similar yield.
The company’s portfolio value is exposed to fluctuations in the general value of electric utilities. An increase of interest rates could affect the company in two ways; one would be to put downward pressure on the valuation of utility stocks as well as increase the company’s cost of borrowing.
Because of the size of the unrealized gains in the company’s portfolio, the company does not anticipate any changes which could reduce the value of the company’s utility portfolio below historical cost. Electric utilities operate in an environment of federal, state and local regulations, and they may disproportionately affect an individual utility. The company’s exposure to regulatory risk is mitigated due to the diversity of holdings consisting of 60 separate stocks. As of September 30, 2007, there are four holdings of common stock which comprise 42.25% of the total market value of the available for sale investments.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures
As of September 30, 2007, the Company carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of the Company’s management, including the Company’s Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer and Treasurer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures pursuant to Rule 13a-14 under the Securities and Exchange of 1934, as amended.
In late 2005, the Company hired a CPA to oversee the accounting department and coordinate the efforts of analysis and dissemination. These efforts include design changes and related monitoring of the internal control system. In addition, the firm temporarily hired two CPA’s to assist them in the work required to get the Company’s prior financial statements in accordance with all filing requirements. It is management’s intention to address accounting issues on a timely basis, and prevent misstatement based on errors and/or lack of understanding.
The Company’s management and board of directors are fully committed to the review and evaluation of the procedures and policies designed to assure effective internal control over financial reporting. It is management’s opinion that these new additions to the internal accounting staff will assist in the establishment of an effective design and operation of the internal control system and therefore, improve the quality of future period financial reporting.
None.
There have been no material changes from the risk factors disclosed in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2006 as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on April 2, 2007. A change in Medicare and Medicaid reimbursement rates was recently announced. This change will be effective as of January 1, 2008 and at this time the Company is unable to quantify the effect this change will have on operating revenue. This change is discussed in greater detail in the Recent Developments section of this 10-Q.
