IWT TESORO CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)
THREE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 2006
NOTE 1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Principles of Consolidation
The consolidated financial statements include IWT Tesoro Corporation and its wholly owned subsidiaries International Wholesale Tile, Inc., IWT Tesoro International, Ltd, IWT Tesoro Transport, Inc. and The Tile Club, Inc and The Tile Club, Inc.s wholly owned subsidiary Import Flooring Group, Inc. All significant inter-company balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
Basis of Presentation
The interim financial information included herein is unaudited; however, such information reflects all adjustments, which are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair presentation of the Companys financial position, results of operations, changes in stockholders equity and cash flows for the interim periods. All such adjustments are of a normal, recurring nature. The results of operations for the first three months of the year are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations which might be expected for the entire year.
The accompanying consolidated financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Rule 10-10 of Regulation S-X of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Accordingly certain information and footnote disclosure required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for complete financial statements have been omitted. These condensed financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Companys financial statements and notes thereto included in the Companys audited financial statements on Form 10-K, for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2005.
The Consolidated Balance Sheet at December 31, 2005 has been derived from the audited financial statements of IWT Tesoro Corporation at that date, but does not include all of the information and footnotes required by U.S. generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements.
Earnings per Share
Basic earnings (loss) per share is computed by dividing net earnings (loss) by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding each period. Diluted earnings (loss) per share is computed by dividing net earnings (loss) by the diluted weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share reflects the potential dilution from common shares issuable through stock options and restricted stock.
Income Taxes
The Company recognizes income taxes under the asset and liability method. Under this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases, and loss carryforwards. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance when, in the opinion of management, it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized.
Segment Information
The Company has adopted SFAS No. 131, Disclosures about Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information. SFAS No. 131 establishes standards for the way that public business enterprises report information about operating segments in annual financial statements and requires those enterprises to report selected information about operating segments in interim financial reports issued to stockholders. The Company operates in one segment for management reporting purposes.
7
Reclassifications
Certain amounts in the 2005 financial statements have been reclassified for comparative purposes to conform to the 2006 presentation. These reclassifications had no effect on net income.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In November, 2004, the FASB issued SFAS No. 151 Inventory Costs an amendment to Accounting Research Bulletin No. 43, Inventory Pricing, to clarify the accounting for abnormal amounts of idle facility expense, freight, handling costs and wasted material. This Statement requires that those items be recognized as current-period charges regardless of whether they meet the criterion of so abnormal. Additionally this statement requires that allocation of fixed production overheads to the costs of conversion be based on the normal capacity of the production facilities. The provisions of SFAS No. 151 are effective for fiscal years beginning after June 15, 2005. The Company adopted SFAS 151 on January 1, 2006 and its adoption did not have an effect on our consolidated results of operations, financial position or cash flows.
In December 2004, the FASB issued SFAS No. 153, Exchanges of Nonmonetary Assets an amendment to Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 29, Accounting for Nonmonetary Transactions, which is based on the principle that exchanges of nonmonetary assets should be measured based on the fair value of the assets exchanged. The guidance in that Opinion, however, included certain exceptions to that principle. This Statement amends Opinion 29 to eliminate the exception for nonmonetary exchanges of similar productive assets and replaces it with a general exception for exchanges in which the future cash flows of the entity are not expected to change significantly as a result of the exchange. The provisions of SFAS No. 153 are effective for nonmonetary asset exchanges in fiscal periods beginning after June 15, 2005. The Company adopted SFAS 153 on January 1, 2006 and its adoption did not have an effect on our consolidated results of operations, financial position or cash flows.
In December 2004, the FASB issued SFAS No. 123 (revised 2004) (SFAS No. 123R), Share-Based Payment, which requires that the compensation cost relating to share-based payment transactions be recognized in the financial statements. SFAS No. 123R replaces SFAS No. 123, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation, and supersedes APB Opinion No. 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees. Share-based compensation arrangements include share options, restricted share plans, performance-based awards, share appreciation rights and employee share purchase plans. SFAS No. 123R requires all share-based payments to employees be valued using a fair value method on the date of grant and expensed based on that fair value generally over the applicable vesting period. SFAS No. 123R also amends SFAS No. 95 Statement of Cash Flows, requiring the benefits of tax deductions in excess of recognized compensation cost be reported as financing cash inflow rather than as a reduction of taxes paid. In March 2005, the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) issued Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 107, (SAB No. 107) which expresses the SECs views regarding the interaction between SFAS No. 123R and certain SEC rules and regulations and, accordingly, provides guidance related to share-based payment transactions for public companies. The Company adopted SFAS 123R on January 1, 2006 and its adoption did not have a material effect on our consolidated results of operations, financial position or cash flows. The Companys compensation expense for the period ended March 31, 2006 was approximately $30,400, as further described in Note 9. The financial impact of any stock options granted is determined using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model with the following assumptions: option price, dividend yield, expected volatility, risk free interest rate and the expected life.
8
NOTE 2 LIQUIDITY AND PROFITABILITY CONSIDERATIONS
The Companys net earnings for the three months ended March 31, 2006 are approximately $2,850,000 of which approximately $4.0 million relates to the change in the fair value of the derivative liability, as more fully described in Note 6. This follows net losses of approximately $4,344,000, $1,209,000 and $1,865,000 for the years ended December 31, 2005, 2004 and 2003, respectively. As reflected in the consolidated balance sheet as of March 31, 2006, the Company had working capital of approximately $846,000, an improvement of approximately $1,471,000 from December 31, 2005 which had a working capital deficit of approximately $625,000.
Profitability
In January 2006 management implemented a plan to improve profitability by reducing projected operating costs in sales and marketing and administrative overhead. Operating expenses were reduced 4.2%, approximately $708,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2006 as compared to the three months ended December 31, 2005. The Company expanded its plan by reducing operating cost and in May 2006 realigned the operations of its subsidiary Import Flooring Group, Inc.

NOTE 5 NOTES PAYABLE, REVOLVING LINE OF CREDIT
On December 31, 2004, the Company amended and restated the existing revolving line of credit agreement providing up to $25,000,000 with interest rates of either (1) LIBOR plus 3.00% or (2) the base rate plus 0.50% (interest rates ranging from 7.00% to 8.25% at March 31, 2006) payable monthly. The line of credit is limited by a borrowing base which is comprised of a percentage of eligible accounts receivable and eligible inventories, as defined, and is collateralized by substantially all the assets of the Company. The balance due at March 31, 2006 and December 31, 2005 was $23,781,176 and $22,625,500, respectively. The line matures September 10, 2006 and contains certain covenants requiring the Company to maintain a certain leverage ratio, a required minimum fixed charge coverage ratio, and certain inventory turnover ratio. At March 31, 2006 the Company was not in compliance with the leverage and fixed charge coverage ratio requirement. The Company was granted a waiver of these covenants from its commercial lender.
For the three months ended March 31, 2006 and 2005, interest expense related to the credit line amounted to $436,073 and $255,625 respectively.

NOTE 6 NOTES PAYABLE CONVERTIBLE DEBT
On February 10, 2006, the Company issued a secured term note in the amount of $2,000,000 resulting in net proceeds of $1,919,500. Interest accrues on the principal balance of the note at an annual interest rate equal to prime plus 2.0%, payable monthly in arrears commencing on March 1, 2006. On March 31, 2006, the interest rate was 9.75%. The note requires monthly principal payments of $66,667 commencing on August 1, 2006 and continuing until maturity. The note matures on February 10, 2009. The note is convertible into common stock of the Company at a fixed conversion rate of $2.17 per share. Based upon the closing price per share of the Companys common stock on the date of issuance, there was a beneficial conversion feature with an estimated intrinsic value of $553,593, which is presented as a discount on the note to be amortized into expense over the three year term of the loan using the effective interest method. In connection with the convertible note, the Company issued to the holder of the note a seven-year warrant to purchase 460,829 shares of the Companys common stock at an exercise price of $2.39 per share. The Company estimated the fair value of the warrant and allocated $455,943 of the proceeds of the debt to the warrant which is presented as a discount on the note to be amortized into interest expense over the three-year term of the note using the effective interest method. The aggregate discount allocated to the beneficial conversion feature and the options and warrants was recorded as additional paid in capital at March 31, 2006. The fair value of the warrant was estimated at the date of issuance using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model using the following assumptions: risk-free rate of 4.59%, dividend yields of 0%, and a volatility factor of the expected market price of the Companys common stock of 58.2%. The Company also issued to the holder, 221,198 shares of the Companys common stock as prepayment of interest in the amount of $486,636, which was calculated based upon the closing price per share of the Companys common stock on the date of issuance of $2.20 per share. The prepaid interest is presented as a discount on the note to be amortized into interest expense over the three year term using the effective interest method.
On August 25, 2005, the Company issued a secured revolving note in the aggregate amount of $5,000,000 resulting in net proceeds of $4,733,000 after debt issuance costs of $267,000. Interest accrues on the principal balance of the note at an annual interest rate equal to prime plus 1.5%. On March 31, 2006, the interest rate was 8.25%. The note matures on August 25, 2008. The note is convertible into common stock of the Company at an initial conversion rate of $2.74 per share. Because the agreement contains certain non-standard anti-dilution provisions and requirements to settle any conversion option with registered shares, the Company is required to account for the conversion option as an embedded derivative requiring separate accounting treatment in accordance with SFAS No. 133 Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities. Based upon the closing price per share of the Companys common stock on the date of issuance, the Company estimated the fair value of the embedded conversion option and classified $2,068,317 as a derivative liability that is adjusted to fair value at each reporting date with changes in fair value reported in earnings. In connection with the convertible notes, the Company issued to the holder of the note a five-year warrant to purchase 511,883 shares of the Companys common stock at an exercise price of $3.15 per share and an option to purchase 1,170,110 shares of the Companys common stock at an exercise price of $0.001 per share. Based upon the closing price per share of the Companys common stock on the date of issuance, the Company estimated the fair value of the warrant and option and classified $3,099,835 and $692,334, respectively, as derivative liabilities that are adjusted to fair value at each reporting date with changes in fair value reflected in operations. The estimated fair value of the derivative liabilities as of March 31, 2006 is $1,931,359. This is a decrease in fair value of $4,023,103 from the value of December 31, 2005. This decrease is primarily due to the decrease in the Companys closing stock prices as of March 31, 2006 compared to the closing stock price as of December 31, 2005. The Company has recognized this change in fair value as other income in the Consolidated Statement of Operations for the three months ended March 31, 2006. The fair values of the options, warrants, and embedded conversion option was estimated at the date of issuance using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model using the following weighted average assumptions: risk-free rate of 4.06%, dividend yields of 0%, and volatility factors of the expected market price of the Companys common stock of 60.79%.
On March 31, 2006, the Company issued Amendment #2 to the Security Agreement, dated August 25, 2005 and the Convertible Minimum Borrowing Note, dated August 25, 2005 with Laurus Master Fund, LTD. As a result of the Amendment, the Company is no longer required to make any modifications to the fixed conversion price, or issue additional securities in the event the Company issues common stock at a price less than $2.74 per share.
On April 15, 2006, the Company issued Amendment #3 to the Security Agreement dated August 25, 2005 and the Registration Rights Agreement dated August 25, 2005, with Laurus Master Fund, LTD. As a result of the Amendment, the Company has extended the deadline by which the Registration Statement is required to be filed and declared effective by the Commission.

NOTE 8 INCOME TAXES
Income tax expense for the three month period ended March 31, 2006 was $-0-as the provision for income taxes, computed by applying the Federal statutory rate to income before income taxes, was reduced by the decrease in the deferred tax valuation allowance during the period, resulting from the utilization of a portion of the Companys net operating loss carryforward.
Income tax expense for the three month period ended March 31, 2005 was $-0- as the benefit for income taxes, computed by applying the Federal statutory rate to loss before income taxes, was reduced by the increase in the deferred tax valuation allowance during the period, to adjust deferred taxes to the amount considered by management more likely than not to be realized.

NOTE 9 STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION
The Company entered into a Stock Incentive Plan on December 27, 2001. Under the plan, non-qualified stock options, incentive stock options and restricted stock may be granted to eligible employees, consultants and affiliates.
Effective January 1, 2006, the Company adopted the fair value measurement and recognition provisions of SFAS No. 123R using the modified-prospective-transition method. Prior to the adoption of SFAS No. 123R stock option grants were accounted for in accordance with Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees (APB No. 25), and related interpretations, and accordingly recognized no compensation expense for stock option grants.
Under the modified-prospective-transition method, SFAS No. 123R applies to new awards and to awards that were outstanding on January 1, 2006 that are subsequently modified, repurchased or cancelled. Under the modified-prospective-transition method compensation cost recognized in the three-month period ended March 31, 2006, includes compensation cost for all shared-based payments granted prior to, but not yet vested as of January 1, 2006, based on the grant date fair value estimated in accordance with the original provisions of Statement 123, and compensation cost for all share-based payments granted subsequent to January 1, 2006, based on the grant-date fair value estimated in accordance with the provisions of SFAS No. 123R. Prior periods were not restated to reflect the impact of adopting the new standard.
As a result of adopting SFAS No. 123R on January 1, 2006, during the three month period ended March 31, 2006, the Company recognized additional compensation costs of $30,437. The adoption of SFAS No. 123R had no impact on basic and diluted earnings per share for the three months ended March 31, 2006.
The following table illustrates the effect on net income and earnings per share if the Company had applied the fair value recognition provisions of Statement 123(R) to options granted under the Companys stock option plan for the three-month period ended March 31, 2005. For purposes of this proforma disclosure, the value of the options is estimated using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model and amortized to expense over the options vesting periods.

Quarter ended March 31, 2006 Compared to Quarter March 31, 2005
Net sales for the three months ended March 31, 2006 increased $2,338,241 or approximately 17.1% over the reported net sales for the three months ended March 31, 2005. This growth follows a 43.6% increase in net sales for the three months ended March 31, 2005 over the three months ended March 31, 2004. Despite the period over period increase, management believes that the sales growth for the three months ended March 31, 2006 was lower than expected due to the slow economic recovery from the severe weather that impacted building activities in the southeastern and gulf coast areas of the United States in the fall of 2005. The Company continues to try to mitigate the impact of weather on its sales growth by expanding its geographic operations and expects to maintain a strong growth rate.
Gross profit for the three months ended March 31, 2006 was $5,813,429 (36.3% of net sales) compared to $5,129,985 (37.5% of net sales) for the three months ended March 31, 2005. Gross profit was impacted by higher than expected cost of goods sold relating to the start up of the Companys agency based subsidiary, Import Flooring Group Inc. The Company expects to return to and maintain a gross profit sales ratio of approximately 38% in the future.
Our operating expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2006 were $5,874,733 (36.6% of net sales) compared to $4,895,825 (35.7% of net sales) for the three months ended March 31, 2005. There was a increase turn in our operating expense ratio for the three months ended March 31, 2006 compared to the three months ended March 31, 2005, caused primarily by the start up cost of our agency based subsidiary, Import Flooring Group, Inc. however management expects to continue to realize benefits from increased economies of scale and its operating expense management efforts and anticipate future declines in the operating expense ratio.
Changes in Financial Position for the three months ended March 31, 2006 from the year ended December 31, 2005
Current assets at March 31, 2006 are approximately $44.6 million compared to $43.8 million at December 31, 2005, an increase of approximately $0.8 million. The increase is attributable to an increase in accounts receivable of approximately $2.0 million at March 31, 2006 which is primarily due to our continued growth in sales. Inventory decreased by $781,206 at March 31, 2006 from the year ended December 31, 2005. The decrease in inventory relates primarily to our efforts to improve our inventory turnover rate and utilization of resources.
Current liabilities at March 31, 2006 are approximately $44.2 million compared to $ 44.5 million at December 31, 2005, a decrease of approximately $0.3 million. The decrease is attributable to a decrease in accounts payable of approximately $1.4 million and an increase in our revolving line of credit of approximately $1.2 million. These changes are consistent with our ability to fund our growth through financing arrangements.
Long term liabilities at March 31, 2006 are approximately $3.7 million compared to $6.7 million at December 31, 2005, a decrease of approximately $3.0 million. The decrease is due to a change in fair value of the embedded derivative liability relating to a convertible secured note of approximately $4.0 million and an increase in convertible debt, net of discounts of approximately $1.0 million, as more fully described in Note 6 of the consolidated financial statements. The decrease in the embedded derivative liability is primarily attributable to decrease in the instruments fair market value which is driven by the trading price of the Companys common stock.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
We had cash balances of approximately $118,900 at March 31, 2006 and $552,000 at December 31, 2005. We have financed our growth with new subordinated debt and increased borrowings from our commercial lender.
The cash outflows used in operations during the quarter ended March 31, 2006 were approximately $3.2 million compared to $2.9 million for the quarter ended March, 31 2005. The increased outflow was primarily attributable to an increase in accounts receivable, which increased from approximately $9.9 million at the beginning of 2006 to $11.9 million at March 31, 2006. Inventories, which decreased from approximately $32.2 million at the beginning of 2006 to $31.4 million at March 31, 2006 contributed to minimizing the impact of the growth in the accounts receivables.
Net cash used in investing activities during the quarter ended March 31, 2006 was approximately $359,000 compared to $34,000 for the quarter ended March 31, 2005. Capital expenditures consisted of tile finishing equipment to enhance our breadth of products offered.
Net cash provided by financing activities during the quarter ended March 31, 2006 was approximately $3.2 million compared to $2.9 million during the quarter ended March 31, 2005. The increase is primarily attributable to the increased outstanding
18
balance on our revolving line of credit and the proceeds from the issuance of convertible debt and warrant of $2.0 million. The cash provided by these financing activities was used to fund our growth and expansion efforts.
During the quarter ended March 31, 2006, we issued a $2,000,000 secured term note to an institutional investor as more fully described in Note 6 to the consolidated financial statements. The note is subordinate to a revolving credit line with our commercial lender. The combination of this note and our two revolving credit facilities provides us with up to $32 million of working capital. We expect that this debt will be sufficient to support our normal growth in accounts receivable and inventory through 2006. However, our growth through geographical expansion and acquisition is expected to continue to require us to seek additional outside capital to supplement earnings and to strengthen our balance sheet. We expect to raise additional equity through both the public and private debt and equity markets during 2006. However, we cannot assure anyone that we will be able to obtain outside capital, or if we do, that it will be on terms beneficial to us.
The balance due at March 31, 2006 for our subordinated debt was $7 million. The balance due at March 31, 2006 to our commercial lender for the use of the revolving line of credit was approximately $23.8 million. The loan and security agreement contains certain covenants, which include financial covenants that require us to maintain a certain leverage ratio, limit our unfunded capital expenditures, a required minimum fixed charge coverage ratio, and a certain inventory turnover ratio. At March 31, 2006 the Company was not in compliance with two of these covenants and obtained a waiver from its commercial lender.
Critical Accounting Policies
Our financial statements are prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles, which require us to make estimates and assumptions about future events and their impact on amounts reported in our Financial Statements and related Notes. Since future events and their impact cannot be determined with certainly, what actual results will inevitably differ from our estimates. These differences could be material to the financial statements.
We believe that our application of accounting policies, and the estimates what are inherently required by these policies, are reasonable. We believe that significant accounting policies are described in Note 1 to the consolidated financial statements included in the Companys Annual Report on Form 10-K, for the year ended December 31, 2005 and the stock-based compensation expense policy adopted January 1, 2006 may involve a higher degree of judgment and complexity.
Stock-based compensation expense
On January 1, 2006, we adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards SFAS No. 123R, Share-Based Payment, which requires us to recognize compensation expense for stock-based compensation based on the grant date fair value. Stock-based compensation expense is then recognized ratably over the service period related to each grant. We used the modified prospective transition method under which financial statements covering periods prior to adoption have not been restated. We determine the fair value of stock-based compensation using the Black-Scholes option pricing model, which requires us to make assumptions regarding future dividends, expected volatility of our stock, and the expected lives of the options. Under SFAS 123R we also make assumptions regarding the number of options and the number of restricted and performance shares that will ultimately vest. The assumptions and calculations required by SFAS 123R are complex and require a high degree of judgment. Assumptions regarding the vesting of grants are accounting estimates that must be updated as necessary with any resulting change recognized as an increase or decrease in compensation expense at the time the estimate is changed.
Forward-Looking Information
Some statements made in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, are forward-looking statements and are not historical facts. For example, statements regarding our financial position, business strategy and other plans and objectives for future operations, and assumptions and predictions about future demand for our services and products, supply, costs, marketing and pricing factors are all forward-looking statements. When we use words like intend, would, anticipate, believe, estimate, plan or expect or the negative of these terms and similar expressions, we are making forward- looking statements. You should be aware that these forward-looking statements are subject to risks and uncertainties. Additionally, our forward-looking statements speak only as of the date of this report. Other than as required by law, we undertake no obligation to update or revise these statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise. New factors emerge from time to time that may cause our business not to develop as we expect, and it is not possible for us to predict all of them. Factors that may cause our actual results, performance or achievements to be materially different from the results, performance or achievements expressed or implied by the forward-looking statements include, among other things are changes in the industry, energy costs, timing and level of capital expenditures and introduction of new products.
ITEM 3 QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISKS
Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk
Information about the Companys exposure to market risk was disclosed in its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2005, which was filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on May 19, 2006. No material quantitative or qualitative changes in market risk exposure has occurred since the date of that filings.
ITEM 4 CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
As of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, Tesoros management, with participation of the Companys principal executive officer and principal financial officer, have performed an evaluation of the Companys disclosure controls and procedures, (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (Exchange Act) to ensure that information required to be disclosed by Tesoro in the reports that Tesoro files or
19
submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified by the SECs rules and forms.
Based on that evaluation, Tesoros principal executive officer and principal financial officer have concluded that its disclosure controls and procedures are effective in ensuring that information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified by the SECs rules and forms. At this time, management has determined that the Companys current system of disclosure controls and procedures are sufficient i) to ensure that data errors, control problems, or acts of fraud are detected and ii) to confirm that appropriate corrective action, including process improvements, is undertaken in a timely manner.
Attached as Exhibits 31.1 and 31.2 to this Quarterly Report are certifications of the CEO and the CFO, which are required in accordance with Rule 13a-14 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the Exchange Act). This Controls and Procedures section includes the information concerning the controls evaluation referred to in the certifications and it should be read in conjunction with the certifications.
We are in the process of implementing the requirements of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 which requires our management to assess the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting and include an assertion in our 2007 annual report as to the effectiveness of our internal controls over financial reporting. Subsequently, our independent registered public accounting firm, McGladrey & Pullen LLP, will be required to attest to whether our assessment of the effectiveness of our internal controls over financial reporting is fairly stated in all material respects and separately report on whether it believes we maintained, in all material respects, effective internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2007. We are in the process of performing the system and process documentation, evaluation and testing required for management to make this assessment and for the registered public accounting firm to provide its attestation report. We have not completed this process or its assessment, and this process will require significant amounts of management time and resources. In the course of evaluation and testing, management may identify deficiencies that would need to be addressed and remediated.
We are not a party to any material pending legal proceedings and, to the best of our knowledge, no such action by or against us is contemplated, threatened or expected.
ITEM 2. UNREGISTERED SALES OF EQUITY SECURITIES AND USE OF PROCEEDS
On February 10 2006, as part of the closing of a $2.0 million private offering of debt securities with Laurus Master Fund, Ltd., Laurus provided us with a secured term note of $2.0 million, which is currently convertible into 921,659 shares of common stock at a conversion price of $2.17 per share. We also issued a warrant that will allow Laurus to purchase up 460,829 shares of our common stock at $2.39 per share through February 10, 2013. Of the $2.0 million in proceeds received, $14,500 was paid to Laurus counsel for legal fees and $56,000 to Laurus Capital Management, LLC for management fees in connection with the transaction through closing and to Laurus of $10,000 for due diligence fees. These offering expenses paid on behalf of Laurus totaled $80,500 and were paid in cash. After these expenses, we received net proceeds of approximately $1,919,500. The net proceeds were used for general corporate purposes.
The sale of these securities were deemed to be exempt from registration under the Securities act in reliance on Section 4(2) of the Securities Act, or Regulation D promulgated thereafter, as transactions by an issuer not involving a public offering. Laurus represented its intention to acquire the securities for investment only and not with a view for sale in connection with any distribution thereof and appropriate legends were affixed to the share certificates and instruments issued in such transactions. The sales of these securities were made without general solicitation or advertising. Laurus is an accredited investor and had adequate access, through their relationship with the Company, to information, including financial, about the Company. None of these transactions involved any underwriters, underwriting discounts or commissions.

Subsequent Events

The Amended and Restated Registration Rights Agreement extended the date that Tesoro must file a registration statement to register certain shares issued to Laurus. This filing date to file a registration statement was extended to July 15, 2006. This extension relates to all securities required to be registered by Tesoro on behalf of Laurus.
