FCCC, INC.

NOTES TO CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

NOTE A – BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The accompanying condensed financial statements of FCCC, Inc. (the “Company”), formerly known as The First Connecticut Capital Corporation, have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10-01 of Regulation S-X, promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and notes required by GAAP for complete financial statements.

In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair representation have been included herein. Operating results are not necessarily indicative of the results which may be expected for the year ending March 31, 2009 or other future periods. For further information, refer to the financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-KSB for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2008.

NOTE B – RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

During the nine months ended December 31, 2008, the Company paid its four outside directors a total of $5,700 in connection with board and audit committee attendance for the nine months ended December 31, 2008.

NOTE C – EXERCISE OF WARRANTS

In April 2008 and May 2008, respectively, all outstanding Warrants (200,000) were exercised through the cashless exercise provisions of the Warrants resulting in 53,500 and 56,140 common shares being issued to Bernard Zimmerman, President and Martin Cohen, a Director of the Company respectively or their affiliates.

NOTE D – NEW PRONOUNCEMENTS AND SHARE BASED AWARDS

In May 2008, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued SFAS No. 163, “Accounting for Financial Guarantee Insurance Contracts-and interpretation of FASB Statement No. 60". SFAS No. 163 clarifies how Statement 60 applies to financial guarantee insurance contracts, including the recognition and measurement of premium revenue and claims liabilities. This statement also requires expanded disclosures about financial guarantee insurance contracts. SFAS No. 163 is effective for fiscal years beginning on or after December 15, 2008, and interim periods within those years. SFAS No. 163 has no effect on the Company’s financial position, statements of operations, or cash flows at this time.

In May 2008, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued SFAS No. 162, “The Hierarchy of Generally Accepted Accounting Principles”. SFAS No. 162 sets forth the level of authority to a given accounting pronouncement or document by category. Where there might be conflicting guidance between two categories, the more authoritative category will prevail. SFAS No. 162 will become effective 60 days after the SEC approves the PCAOB’s amendments to AU Section 411 of the AICPA Professional Standards. SFAS No. 162 has no effect on the Company’s financial position, statements of operations, or cash flows at this time.

In March 2008, the Financial Accounting Standards Board, or FASB, issued SFAS No. 161, Disclosures about Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities—an amendment of FASB Statement No. 133. This standard requires companies to provide enhanced disclosures about (a) how and why an entity uses derivative instruments, (b) how derivative instruments and related hedged items are accounted for under Statement 133 and its related interpretations, and (c) how derivative instruments and related hedged items affect an entity’s financial position, financial performance, and cash flows. This Statement is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years and interim periods beginning after November 15, 2008, with early application encouraged. The Company has not yet adopted the provisions of SFAS No. 161, but does not expect it to have a material impact on its financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

In December 2007, the SEC issued Staff Accounting Bulletin (SAB) No. 110 regarding the use of a “simplified” method, as discussed in SAB No. 107 (SAB 107), in developing an estimate of expected term of “plain vanilla” share options in accordance with SFAS No. 123 (R), Share-Based Payment. In particular, the staff indicated in SAB 107 that it will accept a company’s election to use the simplified method, regardless of whether the company has sufficient information to make more refined estimates of expected term. At the time SAB 107 was issued, the staff believed that more detailed external information about employee exercise behavior (e.g., employee exercise patterns by industry and/or other categories of companies) would, over time, become readily available to companies. Therefore, the staff stated in SAB 107 that it would not expect a company to use the simplified method for share option grants after December 31, 2007. The staff understands that such detailed information about employee exercise behavior may not be widely available by December 31, 2007. Accordingly, the staff will continue to accept, under certain circumstances, the use of the simplified method beyond December 31, 2007. The Company has not yet adopted the simplified method for “plain vanilla” share options and warrants, but does not expect it to have a material impact on o the Company’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 160, Noncontrolling Interests in Consolidated Financial Statements — an amendment of ARB No. 51. This statement amends ARB 51 to establish accounting and reporting standards for the noncontrolling interest in a subsidiary and for the deconsolidation of a subsidiary. It clarifies that a noncontrolling interest in a subsidiary is an ownership interest in the consolidated entity that should be reported as equity in the consolidated financial statements. Before this statement was issued, limited guidance existed for reporting noncontrolling interests. As a result, considerable diversity in practice existed. So-called minority interests were reported in the consolidated statement of financial position as liabilities or in the mezzanine section between liabilities and equity. This statement improves comparability by eliminating that diversity. 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 (revised 2007).. It is not believed that this will have an impact on the Company’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 141(R), “Business Combinations,” which replaces SFAS No. 141, which, among other things, establishes principles and requirements for how an acquirer entity recognizes and measures in its financial statements the identifiable assets acquired, the liabilities assumed (including intangibles) and any non-controlling interests in the acquired entity. SFAS No. 141(R) applies prospectively to business combinations for which the acquisition date is on or after the beginning of the first annual reporting period beginning on or after December 15, 2008. The Company is currently evaluating what impact the adoption of SFAS No. 141(R) will have on the financial statements.

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 159), which permits entities to choose to measure many financial instruments and certain items at fair value. Unrealized gains and losses on items for which this option has been elected are reported in earnings. The provisions of SFAS No. 159 are effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007. The Company is currently assessing the impact of SFAS 159 on its financial statements.

In July 2002, the Public Company Accounting Reform and Investor Protection Act of 2002 (the Sarbanes-Oxley Act) was enacted. Section 404 stipulates that public companies must take responsibility for maintaining an effective system of internal control. Section 404(a) of the Act requires public companies to report on the effectiveness of their control over financial reporting and Section 404(b) requires public companies to obtain an attest report from their independent registered public accountant about management’s report. The Company is not required to comply with section 404(a) of the Act until the fiscal year ending March 31, 2010.

The Company has implemented all new accounting pronouncements that are in effect and that may impact its financial statements and does not believe that there are any other new accounting pronouncements that have been issued that might have a material impact on its financial position or results of operations.

ITEM 2.  MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULT OF OPERATIONS.

FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

This quarterly report and other reports issued by the Company, including reports filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission, may contain “forward-looking” statements, within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, that deal with future results, plans or performances. In addition, the Company’s management may make such statements orally, to the media, or to securities analysts, investors or others. Accordingly, forward-looking statements deal with matters that do not relate strictly to historical facts. The Company’s future results may differ materially from historical performance and forward-looking statements about the Company’s expected financial results or other plans are subject to a number of risks and uncertainties. This section and other sections of this quarterly report may include factors that could materially and adversely impact the Company’s financial condition and results of operations. Given these risks and uncertainties, investors should not place undue reliance on forward-looking statements as a prediction of actual results. The Company undertakes no obligation to revise or update any forward-looking statements after the date hereof.

ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULT OF OPERATIONS

The Company has limited operations and has been actively seeking merger, acquisition and business combination opportunities with an operating business or other financial transaction opportunities. Until a transaction is effectuated, the Company does not expect to have significant operations. Accordingly, during such period, the Company does not expect to achieve sufficient income to offset its operating expenses, which may result in operating losses that may require the Company to use and thereby reduce its cash balance.

During the quarter ended December 31, 2008, the Company had a net loss of $(9,000). The loss is attributable to the operational and administrative expenses incurred during the quarter less interest income earned. During the quarter ended December 31, 2007, the net loss was $(4,000). The net increase in the loss in the current quarter is primarily due to a decrease in interest income received due to lower rates on invested funds offset by a small decrease in operating expenses.

During the nine months ended December 31, 2008, the Company had a net loss of $(36,000), compared to a net loss of $(8,000) in the nine months ended December 31, 2007. The loss is attributable to the operational and administrative expenses incurred during the quarter, less interest income earned. The Company paid income taxes of $2,000 in the nine months ended December 31, 2008, and $6,000 in the nine months ended December 31, 2007. The increase in the loss in the current nine months is primarily due to a decrease in interest income received due to lower interest rates on invested funds and a small increase in administrative and other corporate expenses.

Stockholder’s equity as of December 31, 2008 is $1,576,000 as compared to $ 1,612,000 at March 31, 2008. The decrease is attributable to the net loss incurred by the Company during the nine months ended December 31, 2008.

The Company had cash on hand at December 31, 2008 of $1,583,000 as compared to $1,622,000 and $1,624,000 at March 31, 2008 and December 31, 2007, respectively. The decrease in cash on hand is primarily due to losses sustained by the Company in those respective periods.

The Company does not have any arrangements with banks or financial institutions with respect to the availability of financing in the future.

The payment of any cash dividends is subject to the discretion of the Company’s Board of Directors, and at this time the Company has no plans to pay any cash dividends.

8

PLAN OF OPERATION

As noted above, the Company has limited operations. The Company plans to continue as a public entity and continues to seek merger, acquisition and business combination opportunities with other operating businesses or other appropriate financial transactions. Until such an acquisition or business combination is effectuated, the Company does not expect to have significant operations. Accordingly, during such period, the Company may not achieve sufficient income to offset its operating expenses, which could create operating losses that may require the Company to use and thereby reduce its cash on hand.

ITEM 3.  CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES.

As of the end of the period covered by this Report, the Company’s President, principal executive officer and principal financial officer, evaluated the effectiveness of the Company’s “disclosure controls and procedures”, as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) and 15(d)-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. Based on that evaluation, this officer concluded that, as of the date of his evaluation, the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed in the Company’s periodic filings under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is accumulated and communicated to management, including that officer, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. It should be noted that a control system, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that it will detect or uncover failures within the Company to disclose material information otherwise required to be set forth in the Company’s periodic reports.

During the period covered by this Report, there were no changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting
