PART I


ITEM 1. BUSINESS


THE COMPANY


BUSINESS OF REGISTRANT


REPRO-MED SYSTEMS, INC., (“REPRO-MED,” or “RMS Medical Products” or the “Company”), was incorporated in the State of New York in March of 1980. The Company designs, manufactures, and markets proprietary medical devices primarily for the ambulatory infusion market and emergency medical applications. The FDA regulates these products. The Company’s development and marketing focus are primarily concentrated on the FREEDOM60(R) Syringe Infusion System and accessories, and the RES-Q-VAC(R) Emergency Medical Suction System.


CORPORATE HISTORY


REPRO-MED SYSTEMS, INC., was incorporated under the laws of the State of New York in March 1980. The corporate offices are located at 24 Carpenter Road, Chester, New York 10918. The telephone number is 845-469-2042, the fax is 845-469-5518, and the Internet site is www.rmsmedicalproducts.com.


PRODUCTS


FREEDOM60(R) SYRINGE INFUSION SYSTEM


The FREEDOM60(R) Syringe Pump uses an innovative “engine” to create a constant pressure drive system which we believe results in substantially greater safety, reliability, reduced discomfort for subcutaneous applications, and an overall higher quality infusion than other devices on the market - all at a lower cost. The basic drive mechanism used in the FREEDOM60(R) represents the first of a line of products, which we intend to develop to broaden the product applications and appeal.


FREEDOM60(R) uses precision rate-controlled tubing with standard slide clamp and luer-lock connector on the patient end. Our patented luer disc connector ensures that only the Company’s FREEDOM60(R) tubing sets will function with the pump. Non-conforming tubing sets, without the patented disc connector, are ejected from the pump to prevent the danger of an overdose or runaway pump from injuring the patient. We are achieving our objective of building a product franchise with FREEDOM60(R) and the sale of patented disposable tubing sets.


Our proprietary technology employed in the FREEDOM60(R) uses constant pressure to administer drugs. FREEDOM60(R) avoids an important problem faced by electronic pumps currently on the market, which employ constant flow mechanisms that result in potentially dangerous, high pressure placed on indwelling catheters or under the skin. In order to protect the patients, these pumps must contain an overpressure sensor to shut the pump off when a potentially threatening pressure is detected. Some of these electronic pumps generate extremely high pressures exceeding 60psi before the overpressure system will activate. Also with these systems, the alarm can falsely trigger halting administration until a health professional can verify that the infusion is, in fact, safe and the pump may be reactivated. In either case, the patient is at risk from damaging pressures or not receiving the medication required.


Other unsafe conditions of conventional equipment include: runaway administrations, overdose due to programming errors or pump failure, and overpressure resulting in burst blood vessels or failed internal access devices. We believe that the increasing sales of pumps and tubing sets for the FREEDOM60(R) demonstrate that the FREEDOM60(R) eliminates these potential outcomes and ensures a safe, constant, controlled infusion. Electronic devices will increase infusion pressure while attempting to continue an infusion at the programmed rate, while the FREEDOM60(R) design maintains a safe constant pressure and thereby automatically reduces the flow rate as required, a process we refer to as “dynamic equilibrium,” if any problems of administration occur.


- 3 -



The FREEDOM60(R) Syringe Infusion Pump is designed for ambulatory medication infusions. Ambulatory infusion pumps are most prevalent in the home care market although we believe there is potential in the hospital setting as well. Other potential applications for the FREEDOM60(R) include pain control, the infusion of specialized drugs such as IgG, and chemotherapy. The home infusion therapy market is comprised of approximately 4,500 sites of service, including local and national organizations, hospital-affiliated organizations, and national home infusion organizations, and produces approximately $11 billion in revenue annually*. With insurance reimbursement in a severe decline, there is a tremendous need for a low-cost, effective alternative to electronic and expensive disposable IV administration devices for home care. The FREEDOM60(R) provides a high-quality delivery to the patient at costs comparable to gravity-driven infusions and is targeted for the home health care industry, patient emergency transportation, and for any time a low-cost infusion is required.


*Ref: www.nhia.org/faqs.cfm and http://www.gao.gov/new.items/d10426.pdf


For the home care patient, FREEDOM60(R) is an easy-to-use lightweight mechanical pump using a 60cc syringe, completely portable, cost effective and maintenance free, with no batteries to replace and no cumbersome IV pole. For the infusion professional, FREEDOM60(R) delivers accurate infusion rates and uniform flow profiles providing consistent transfer of medication. The FDA approved a Form 510(k) Pre-market Notification for initial design of the FREEDOM60(R) as a Class II device in August 1994.


We have expanded the use of the FREEDOM60(R) to cover most antibiotics including the widely used and somewhat difficult to administer Vancomycin. We have also found a following for FREEDOM60(R) for use in treating thalassemia with the drug Desferal(R). In Europe, we found success in using the FREEDOM60(R) for pain control, specifically post-operative epidural pain administration. Our European market also uses the FREEDOM60(R) for chemotherapy and subcutaneous immune globulin.


The FREEDOM60(R) use for Primary Immune Deficiency by injecting immune globulin (IgG) under the skin as a subcutaneous administration (SCIG) has continued to increase during the past year. This method has provided patients with vastly improved quality of life with much fewer unpleasant side effects over the traditional intravenous route. The FREEDOM60(R) is an ideal system for this administration since the patient is able to self-medicate at home, the pump is easily configured for this application, and the FREEDOM60(R) is the lowest cost infusion system available in a heavily cost constrained market. We have begun to promote one of the main benefits of the FREEDOM60(R) for use with IgG, which is that it operates in “dynamic equilibrium” that is the pump finds and maintains a balance between what a patient’s subcutaneous tissues are able to manage and what the pump infuses. This balance is created by a safe, limited, and controlled pressure, which adjusts the flow rate automatically to the patient’s needs providing a reliable, faster and more comfortable administration with fewer side effects for these patients.


THE MARKET FOR INFUSION PUMPS & DISPOSABLES


The ambulatory infusion market has been rapidly changing due to reimbursement issues. Insurance reimbursement has drastically reduced the market share of high-end electronic type delivery systems as well as high-cost disposable non-electric devices, providing an opportunity for the FREEDOM60(R). We believe market pressures have moved specialty pharmacies to consider alternatives to expensive electronic systems especially for new subcutaneous administrations, which usually cannot be done with gravity. For cost concerns, some patients have been trained to administer intravenous drugs through IV push where the drug is pushed into the vein directly from a syringe. This is a low-cost option but has been associated with complications and is considered by many to be a high-risk procedure. Thus, the overall trend has been towards syringe pumps due to the low-cost of disposables.


IMPORTANCE OF INSURANCE REIMBURSEMENT TO FREEDOM60(R) SALES


In order to receive more favorable Medicare reimbursement for our FREEDOM60(R) Syringe Infusion System, we had submitted a formal request for a HCPCS coding verification with the Statistical Analysis Durable Medical Equipment Regional Carrier (SADMERC). It was the determination of the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services that the Medicare HCPCS code(s) to bill the four Durable Medical Regional Carriers (DMERCs) should be: E0779 Ambulatory infusion pump, mechanical, reusable, for infusion 8 hours, or greater. The new code significantly increases the reimbursement for the FREEDOM60(R) for billable syringe pump applications approved by Medicare. Current approved uses under Medicare include among others, subcutaneous immune globulin, antivirals, antifungals, and chemotherapeutics. In June 2007, Medicare issued a letter of clarification stating in part:


“The FREEDOM60(R) Syringe Infusion Pump is the only allowable pump to be billed with the Subcutaneous Immune Globulin (SCIG). The code for this pump for dates of service 1/1/00 - 5/16/07 is E0780. For dates of service on or after 5/17/07, the correct code is E0779 per SADMERC. The items being billed must be supported by corresponding documentation. All other pumps or modifiers will result in a denial.”

ECONOMIC BENEFITS OF FREEDOM60(R) PUMP AND DISPOSABLE SALES


We have shipped approximately 22,400 pumps since March 2000 including approximately 4,800 pumps in the last year. Most of our current sales are made directly to health care providers, although we maintain distributors in both the domestic and foreign markets. The FREEDOM60(R) pump is designed for a minimum use of 4,000 times which at our list price is amortized at $.13 per use.


We estimate that each FREEDOM60(R) pump, when used for immune globulin administration, uses an average of four to six tubing sets per month per patient. Antibiotics may be administered much more frequently, occasionally up to four times per day. In some cases, a tubing set may be used for as long as 72 hours. We estimate tubing set usage for antibiotics to be as much as 10 sets per month per patient.


The pump has a minimum expected life of 4,000 operations. Thus, if the pump is operated up to four times per day as for some administrations of antibiotics, anticipated pump life may be more than six and one-half years. For immune globulin applications, an expected use of four to five times per month results in an anticipated life span of decades for the FREEDOM60(R) pump.


COMPETITION FOR THE FREEDOM60(R)


Competition for the FREEDOM60(R) for IgG is currently limited to electrically powered infusion devices, which are more costly and can create high pressures during delivery, which can cause complications for the administration of IgG. However, there can be no assurance that other companies with greater resources will not enter the market with competitive products, which will have an adverse effect on our sales.


There is the potential for new drugs to enter the market, such as using Hyaluronidase, which can facilitate absorption of IgG, making multiple site infusions unnecessary and changing the market conditions for devices such as the FREEDOM60(R). We believe the FREEDOM60(R) is ideal for all these new drug combinations, but there can be no assurance that these newer drugs will have the same needs and requirements as the current drugs being used.


There can be no assurance that Medicare will continue to provide reimbursement for the FREEDOM60(R), or they may allow reimbursement for other infusion pumps that are currently in the market or new ones that may enter shortly, which could adversely affect our sales into this market.


NEW PRODUCT ENHANCEMENTS FOR THE FREEDOM60(R)


During January 2010, a new subcutaneous immune globulin called Hizentra(R) with a greater concentration was approved by the FDA. We have performed significant testing of the new drug with the FREEDOM60(R) and have been recognized by the drug company for use with their drug. Based on initial reactions, the new formulation appears to be an improved drug at higher concentrations, and is expected to replace the previous offerings. We believe that Hizentra(R) will continue to create additional opportunities for the FREEDOM60(R) system for our fiscal year ending 2013. There are also other IgG drugs for subcutaneous route of administration being introduced into the market, which may expand the market for the FREEDOM60(R) and its accessories.


RMS HIGH-FLO™ SUBCUTANEOUS NEEDLE SETS


The introduction of RMS High-Flo™ Subcutaneous Needle Sets allows us to offer all of the elements needed for a complete subcutaneous infusion system, when combined with our Freedom60® pump and flow rate tubing. The needle sets received FDA approval for marketing in the U.S., on May 20, 2011. They were in the overseas market at that time.


The design of RMS High-Flo™ Subcutaneous Needle Sets provides maximum flow rates during the subcutaneous infusion of high viscosity immune globulin, such as the thickest 20% IgG medications, offering even flows of medication to each site. The performance of High-Flo™ provides what we believe is an advantage over competitive needle sets of comparable gauges for SCIg use. In addition, our manufacturing process includes numerous quality controls, resulting in consistent needle sharpness and smooth finish.

RES-Q-VAC(R) PORTABLE MEDICAL SUCTION


The RES-Q-VAC(R) Emergency Airway Suction System is a lightweight, portable, hand-operated suction device that removes fluids from a patient’s airway by attaching the RES-Q-VAC(R) pump to various proprietary sterile and non-sterile single-use catheters sized for adult and pediatric suctioning. The one-hand operation makes it extremely effective and the product is generally found in emergency vehicles, hospital crash carts and wherever portable aspiration is a necessity, including backup support for powered suction systems. The full stop protection filter (FSP) and disposable features of the RES-Q-VAC(R) reduce the risk of exposing the health professional to HIV or SARS when suctioning a patient or during post treatment cleanup. All of the parts that connect to the pump are disposable.


We have introduced new, updated features including the FSP filter, new pediatric connectors, new graduated canister, new adult catheters, and new convenient carry pouch. It is also available with a flexible, portable LED white light source, which is attached to the top of the canister system and provides illumination for the medical professional during nighttime or low light conditions.


A critical component and advantage of the RES-Q-VAC(R) system is our Full Stop Protection filter, a patented filtering system that both prevents leakage and overflow of the aspirated fluids, even at full capacity, and traps virtually all air- and fluid-borne pathogens and potentially infectious materials within the sealable container. This protects users from potential exposure to disease and contamination. The Full Stop Protection meets the requirement of the Occupational Safety and Health Administration ‘Occupational Exposure to Bloodborne Pathogens’ CFR29 1910.1030. The Company has received a letter from OSHA confirming that the RES-Q-VAC(R) with the Full Stop Protection falls under the engineering controls of the Bloodborne Pathogen regulation and that the Products use would fulfill the regulatory requirements.


Recent concerns are for diseases that are easily transmitted by small aerosolized droplets such as Asian Bird Flu, Swine Flu, and resistant tuberculosis. Other concerns are hepatitis and HIV, among others.


On April 29, 2003, the Centers for Disease Control (CDC) issued additional guidelines for the control of SARS (Sudden Acute Respiratory Syndrome), which requires all suction systems to have filtration equivalent to a HEPA filter to prevent the spread of this disease. At the current time, we believe that the RES-Q-VAC(R) with Full Stop Protection(R) is the only portable device to comply with these CDC directives.


The new connectors added to our pediatric catheters allow them to connect directly to the adult canisters, enabling pediatric suctioning with the benefit of the Full Stop Protection(R) device as well as with sterile catheters. Many infants are born with contagious diseases and the new system eliminates this concern among paramedics during an emergency delivery.


One advantage of our RES-Q-VAC(R) airway suction system is versatility. With the addition of Full Stop Protection(R), we created specific custom RES-Q-VAC(R) kits for various vertical markets:


Emergency Medicine - we make several special kits for emergency use, which contain all the catheters necessary to treat adults as well as infants or children. These first responder kits are generally non-sterile. We also have special attachments available for the advanced paramedic to treat patients who are intubated.


Respiratory - in-home care, long-term care, situations requiring frequent suctioning such as cystic fibrosis patients, patients with swallowing disorders, elderly, patients on ventilators and with tracheostomies all benefit from the portability, cost and performance of the RES-Q-VAC(R). In hospitals, the RES-Q-VAC(R) provides emergency backup due to power loss or breakdown of the wall suction system.


Hospital Use - for crash carts, the emergency room, patients in isolation, patient transport (e.g., from ICU to Radiology) and backup for respiratory, RES-Q-VAC(R) is available sterile with Full Stop Protection(R) for the ultimate in performance and to meet all the OSHA regulations and CDC guidelines for use in treating patients in isolation, and in any location. Hospitals are required under the EMTALA regulations to provide emergency treatment to patients anywhere in the primary facility and up to 250 yards away. The RES-Q-VAC(R) ensures full compliance with these regulations and helps minimize unfavorable outcomes and potential lawsuits. We provide special hospital kits, which are fully stocked to meet all hospital applications for both adult and pediatric.


Nursing homes, hospice, sub-acute - we provide special configurations for dining areas and portable suctioning for outside events and travel. Chronic suction can be accommodated with RES-Q-VAC(R), which can be left by the bedside for immediate use during critical times.


- 6 -



Dental applications - we offer a version of the RES-Q-VAC(R), called DENTAL-EVAC(R), which addresses the needs of oral surgeons for emergency backup suction during a procedure. DENTAL-EVAC(R) is supplied with the dental suction attachments such as saliva ejector and high volume evacuator.


Military Applications -due to its lightweight, portability, and rapid deployment, we believe that the RES-Q-VAC(R) is ideal for any military situation. In addition, exposure to chemical weapons of mass destruction such as Sarin is best treated by rapid, aggressive, and repeated suctioning. We believe that the RES-Q-VAC(R)’s compact size, powerful pump, and full protection of the user from any contamination, gives us a competitive edge in this market.


We are actively pursuing a direct sales effort into the hospital market and continue our effort into nursing homes working with direct sales and several regional distributors in the respiratory market. We also work with national regional distributors who are well represented in the hospital respiratory market.


RES-Q-VAC(R) DISTRIBUTION


RES-Q-VAC(R) is sold domestically and internationally by emergency medical device distributors. These distributors generally sell to the end user and advertise these products in relevant publications and in their catalogs. We market the hospital RES-Q-VAC(R) system through regional distributors specializing in the hospital respiratory care market.


OSHA AND CDC REQUIREMENTS


The Full Stop Protection(R) meets the requirement of the Occupational Safety and Health Administration as described below. The Company has received a letter from OSHA confirming that the RES-Q-VAC(R) with the Full Stop Protection(R) falls under the engineering controls of the Bloodborne Pathogen regulation and that the Products use would fulfill the regulatory requirements.


OSHA 29 CFR 1910.1030 - Occupational Exposure to Bloodborne Pathogens requires that employers of “... emergency medical technicians, paramedics, and other emergency medical service providers; fire fighters, law enforcement personnel, and correctional officers ... must consider and implement devices that are appropriate [to contain blood-borne pathogens], commercially available and effective.” These first responders risk exposure to serious disease, and the employers may risk OSHA violations and lawsuits if they fail to consider protective measures such as Repro-Med’s Full Stop Protection(R) for RES-Q-VAC(R). The Company has received a letter from OSHA indicating the RES-Q-VAC(R) meets the intent of this regulation.


COMPETITION FOR THE RES-Q-VAC(R)


We believe that the RES-Q-VAC(R) is currently the performance leader for manual, portable suction instruments. In the emergency market, the primary competition is the V-Vac(TM) from Laerdal. The V-Vac(TM) is more difficult to use, cannot suction infants, and cannot be used while wearing heavy gloves such as in chemical warfare or in the extreme cold. Laerdal had more resources than REPRO-MED SYSTEMS and had begun marketing the V-Vac(TM) before RES-Q-VAC(R) entered the market. Another competitor is Ambu, with the Res-Cue brand pump, a product similar to our design, made in China. We believe that the product is not as well made or as versatile, and may not be purchased by the military segment of the market due to lines of supply concerns. We believe that the addition of Full Stop Protection(R) substantially separates the RES-Q-VAC(R) from competitive units, which tend to leak fluid when becoming full or could pass airborne pathogens during use. There is a heightened concern from health care professionals concerning exposure to disease and we believe the RES-Q-VAC(R) provides improved protection for these users.


SALES AND DISTRIBUTION


FREEDOM60(R) systems are sold through both direct sales efforts concentrated on large national accounts and a network of medical device distributors. Gynecological instruments are sold from the corporate offices primarily through repeat business. Distribution channels for the products are those generally common to their respective markets. In recent years, our emergency medical products are sold through a wide network of domestic and international distributors in over 40 countries.


The domestic emergency medical market has softened somewhat due to a decrease in Federal reimbursement to the states and cities for firefighters, police, and emergency services. We have concluded that we can have more effective market penetration with major master distributors who are able to better support our products.


- 7 -



For FREEDOM60(R), we have distributors in United Kingdom, Norway, Sweden, Denmark, Iceland, Finland, Estonia, Latvia, and Lithuania. We believe that one distributor in each country will be more predisposed to advertising, promotion, and building the product franchise. We are adding distributors in other European countries to expand our sales efforts. We work closely with our distributors to promote our products in each country.


During our fiscal year, we have expanded our efforts to market both of our main product lines at national and international trade shows. We support shows attended by our primary customers such as EMS Today, National Home infusion Association Conference, Immune Deficiency Foundation Annual Meeting, and MEDICA.

MANUFACTURING AND EMPLOYEES


The Company’s employees perform at the Company’s facility electromechanical assembly, calibration, pre- and post-assembly quality control inspection and testing, and final packaging for all products. Products are assembled using molded plastic parts acquired from several U.S. vendors and one supplier located in Taipei, Taiwan. The availability of parts has not been a problem. The cost and time required to fabricate molds to manufacture parts can slow the development of new products and might temporarily limit supply if we determine it is advisable to seek alternate sources of supply for existing products. Our policy has been to have multiple vendors as suppliers, where practicable, that also offer mold-building capabilities as a service.


As of February 29, 2012, we had 55 employees, 38 assigned to manufacturing operations, 8 to sales and customer support, 7 to administrative functions, 1 to quality assurance functions, and 1 Executive Officer. The Company is dependent on the services of Andrew Sealfon who serves as President, head of Research and Development and is instrumental in sales, marketing, and finance. The Company does not have insurance on the life of Andrew Sealfon and may not be able to replace him if the need arose.


REGULATIONS GOVERNING THE MANUFACTURING OPERATIONS


The Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act governs the development and manufacturing of all medical products. The Act requires us to register the facility, list devices, file notice of intent to market new products, track the locations of certain products and to report any incidents of death or serious injury relating to the products with the FDA. We are subject to civil and criminal penalties and/or recall seizure or injunctions if we fail to comply with regulations of the FDA.


We are required to comply with federal, state, and local environmental laws; however, there is no significant effect of compliance on capital expenditures, earnings, or competitive position. We do not use significant amounts of hazardous materials in the assembly of these products.


Periodically we are subject to inspections and audits by FDA inspectors. The last quality review by the FDA was in September 2010, which included, among others, a review of complaints, quality controls, and documentation. The primary complaints for the FREEDOM60(R) relate to a lack of training on the part of the patient and medical support staff. The FDA inspection did not find any violations and no DD483 was issued. The Company always is subject to further audits by the FDA and could be impacted by adverse findings.


PATENTS AND TRADEMARKS


We have filed and received U.S. protection for many of our products and, in some cases where it was no longer deemed economically beneficial, we have allowed certain patent protections to lapse. The RES-Q-VAC(R) is susceptible in the international market to imitation. In 2002, a competitor had introduced a competitive product to the RES-Q-VAC(R) into the market. We responded with the introduction of new innovative features for the RES-Q-VAC(R) that enhanced the product and placed it well above the competition in safety.


- 8 -



On June 10, 2003, we received patent #6,575,946 for our new Full Stop Protection(R). This addition to the RES-Q-VAC(R) system prevents any fluids from exiting the system. It also serves to trap airborne and fluid pathogens. We believe that the addition of the flow block design substantially separates the RES-Q-VAC(R) from competitive units, which tend to leak fluid when becoming full or could pass airborne pathogens during use. There is a heightened concern from health care professionals concerning exposure to disease, and the filtered RES-Q-VAC(R) provides improved protection for these users.


We also hold patent #5,336,189 for a “Combination IV Pump & Disposable Syringe” which confers a unique syringe to IV pump interface design. This patent is for the FREEDOM60(R) Infusion System, an infusion therapy product. The cost of filing and maintaining applications has deterred pursuing international patents.


The patent position of small companies is highly uncertain and involves complex legal and factual questions. Consequently, there can be no assurance that patent applications relating to products or technology will result in patents being granted or that, if issued, the patents will afford protection against competitors with similar technology. Furthermore, some patent licenses held may be terminated upon the occurrence of certain events or become non-exclusive after a specified period. There can be no assurance that we will have the financial resources necessary to enforce any patent rights we may hold.


There can be no assurance that patents or trademarks will provide competitive advantages for the products covered or that they will not be challenged or circumvented by competitors.

ITEM 6. SELECTED FINANCIAL DATA


Not applicable as the Company is a smaller reporting company.


ITEM 7. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS


This Annual Report on Form 10-K contains certain “forward-looking” statements (as such, term is defined in the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995) and information relating to us that are based on the beliefs of the management, as well as assumptions made by and information currently available.


Our actual results may vary materially from the forward-looking statements made in this report due to important factors such as, recent operating losses, uncertainties associated with future operating results, unpredictability related to Food and Drug Administration regulations, introduction of competitive products, limited liquidity, reimbursement related risks, government regulation of the home health care industry, success of the research and development effort, expanding the market of FREEDOM60(R), availability of sufficient capital to continue operations and dependence on key personnel. When used in this report, the words “estimate,” “project,” “believe,” “may,” “will,” “anticipate,” “intend,” “expect” and similar expressions are intended to identify forward-looking statements. Such statements reflect current views with respect to future events based on currently available information and are subject to risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those contemplated in such forward-looking statements. Readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date hereof. These statements involve risks and uncertainties with respect to the ability to raise capital to develop and market new products, acceptance in the market place of new and existing products, ability to penetrate new markets, our success in enforcing and obtaining patents, obtaining required Government approvals and attracting and maintaining key personnel that could cause the actual results to differ materially. Our actual results, performance and achievements could differ materially from those expressed or implied in these forward-looking statements. Repro-Med does not undertake any obligation to release publicly any revision to these forward-looking statements to reflect events or circumstances after the date hereof or to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events.


ACCOUNTING POLICIES


We believe that we have no critical accounting estimates or assumptions. We do not believe that any of the standards adopted by the Financial Accounting Standards Board that are not yet effective will have a material effect on our financial reporting.


RESULTS OF OPERATIONS


2012 vs. 2011


Overall sales for the year ending February 2012 increased 29.9% to $6,390,534 from $4,920,723 for the same period last year.


We continue to focus our sales and marketing efforts mainly on our two core product lines, the FREEDOM60(R) Syringe Infusion System and the RES-Q-VAC(R) Medical Suction System.


- 10 -



The FREEDOM60(R) continues to lead our sales increases with an overall improvement of 31.9% going from $4,044,313 in 2011 to $5,333,000 for the current year. The increase is due to additional sales for use with immune globulin and antibiotics, and increased revenues from our line of RMS HIgH-Flo™ Subcutaneous Needle Sets. We have concentrated the majority of our efforts in the FREEDOM60(R) line, specifically towards the subcutaneous immune globulin (SCIG) market.


We anticipate these sales to continue to increase as the SCIG market continues to develop and as we work on new enhancements to the FREEDOM60(R) that we believe will expand this market even further. In addition, we expect many of the SCIG providers will see benefit in using the FREEDOM60(R) system for other uses, such as antibiotics, chemotherapeutics, and pain medications.


Our net income for the year ending February 29, 2012 was $815,893 as compared with net income of $704,085 for the previous year. Net income increased as a result of an increase in income before taxes of $88,065 combined with a reduction in the provision for state income taxes.


RES-Q-VAC(R)Hand Held Medical Suction sales decreased by 8% to $803,200 from $868,524. Our overall sales results in the domestic market increased over the prior year, however a one-time, large international purchase in fiscal year 2011 was not repeated in 2012.


RES-Q-VAC(R) is sold domestically and internationally by emergency medical device distributors. These distributors generally sell to the end user and advertise these products in relevant publications and in their catalogs. We market the hospital RES-Q-VAC(R) Hand Held Medical Suction system through regional distributors specializing in the hospital respiratory care market.


Combined sales of our non-core product lines decreased by 5.0% or $4,300.


Cost of goods sold increased from $1,657,184 for year ended February 28, 2011 to $2,251,398 for the current year primarily because of increased sales. Gross profit margin for the year ended February 29, 2012 decreased 1.5% to 64.8%, as compared with 66.3% for the previous year. Raw materials costs have been increasing as have production expenses. Selling, General & Administrative Expenses (SG&A) increased by $688,251 year over year from $1,967,417 to $2,655,668 due to additional marketing expenses associated with our increase in sales and general increases in payroll, including an enlarged sales staff.


Research and development expenses increased from $35,519 to $90,329 primarily due to the hiring of additional engineering staff to support development efforts. Our chief executive officer spends significant time on research and development. All of his compensation has been included in selling, general, and administrative costs.


Depreciation and amortization expense increased by 58.1% to $103,981 during the year ended February 29, 2012 as compared with $65,774 for the previous year 2011 as a result of increased investment in capital assets. Interest expense decreased from $36,392 to $31,540 due to lower debt levels.


LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES


Our net operating profit for the year ended February 29, 2012 was $1,289,158 as compared with $1,194,829 for the previous year. For the year ended February 29, 2012 Net Cash provided from Operations was $560,601 as compared with $1,028,465 for the prior year. This change of $467,864 was due primarily to a smaller deferred tax asset adjustment and increased inventory levels.


Accounts Receivable, net of reserves, increased at February 29, 2012 to $884,727 as compared with $713,906 for the previous year because of our increased sales. Domestic sales are made primarily on net 30-day payment terms. A variety of terms continue to be employed for export sales including cash prepayments and net 45 days to allow for increased delays due to transportation and communications. Prepaid expenses increased to $188,902 from $112,937 due to the purchase of a new software system to be installed and on line at March 1, 2012.


Expenditures for capital equipment in 2012 were $236,235.


We currently lease a masonry and steel frame building erected on 3.27 acres of land located at 24 Carpenter Road, Chester, New York 10918. This facility is our only location and is used as our headquarters and manufacturing operations.


- 11 -



Currently, we are in year 13 of a 20-year lease and are responsible for all repairs, maintenance, and upkeep of the space occupied. The terms of the lease call for a monthly lease payment of $11,042 per month. We also contribute payments of 65% of the building’s annual property taxes, amounting to $42,989 for the year ended February 29, 2012.


In the last year, we began to sell our new RMS Subcutaneous Needle Administration Sets in Europe. We received approval from the FDA on May 20, 2011, for domestic marketing. Therefore, we now have approval for Europe, Canada, and the United States. We believe that the RMS Needle sets represent an improvement in performance and safety over the current devices on the market. We believe we have sufficient resources to continue marketing the needles sets domestically. We have negotiated with a third party manufacturer for outside production for additional capacity and to establish an alternative source of supply for our customers.


We believe the FREEDOM60(R) continues to find a solid following in the subcutaneous immune globulin market and this market is expected to continue to increase both domestically and internationally. We continued to experience an increase in sales during the year ending February 29, 2012. With these increases and the capital we currently have, we will continue to meet or exceed the company’s liquidity needs for the next twelve months.

REPRO-MED SYSTEMS, INC.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

FEBRUARY 29, 2012 AND FEBRUARY 28, 2011


NOTE 1

NATURE OF OPERATIONS AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES


NATURE OF OPERATIONS


REPRO-MED SYSTEMS, INC. (the “Company”) designs, manufactures and markets proprietary medical devices primarily for the ambulatory infusion market and emergency medical applications. The FDA regulates these products. The Company is in one line of business.


CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS


For purposes of the statement of cash flows, the Company considers all short-term investments with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents. Occasionally, the Company has cash held in excess of $250,000 at a single depository, which exceeds the FDIC insurance limits and is therefore uninsured.


At February 29, 2012, cash equivalents consisted of money market funds aggregated to $829,148.


CERTIFICATES OF DEPOSIT


The certificates of deposit are recorded at cost plus accrued interest. The certificates of deposit earn interest at a rate of 0.5% to 0.65% and mature in May 2012 and February 2013.


INVENTORY


Inventories of raw materials are stated at the lower of average cost or market value including allocable overhead. Work-in-process and finished goods are stated at the lower of average cost or market value and include direct labor and allocable overhead. Average cost is calculated using a rolling average based upon new purchases and quantities.


PATENTS


Costs incurred in obtaining patents have been capitalized and are being amortized over seventeen years.


INCOME TAXES


Deferred income taxes are provided using the liability method whereby deferred tax assets are recognized for deductible temporary differences and operating loss and tax credit carry forwards and deferred tax liabilities are recognized for taxable temporary differences.


The Company believes that it has no uncertain tax positions requiring disclosure or adjustment. Generally, tax years starting with 2008 are subject to examination by income tax authorities.


PROPERTY, EQUIPMENT, AND DEPRECIATION


Property and equipment is stated at cost and is depreciated using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the respective assets.


STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION


The Company accounts for stock issued for services using the fair value method. The measurement date of shares issued for service is the date when the counterparty’s performance is complete.


- 20 -



NET INCOME PER COMMON SHARE


Basic earnings per share are computed on the weighted average of common shares outstanding during each year. During the year ended February 28, 2011 the preferred shares were converted into common shares and therefore diluted earnings per share includes only an increase in the weighted average shares by the common shares issuable upon exercise of employee and director stock options (Note 7).

USE OF ESTIMATES IN THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS


The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Important estimates include but are not limited to, asset lives, valuation allowances, inventory, and accruals.


SUBSEQUENT EVENTS


The Company has evaluated subsequent events through May 29, 2012, the date on which the financial statements were issued.


REVENUE RECOGNITION


Sales of manufactured products are recorded when shipment occurs. The Company’s revenue stream is derived from the sale of an assembled product. Other service revenues are recorded as the service is performed. Shipping and handling costs generally are billed to customers and are included in sales. The Company does not accept return of goods shipped unless it is a Company error. The only credits provided to customers are for defective merchandise.


EMERGING ACCOUNTING STANDARDS


Management does not believe that any of the standards adopted by the Financial Accounting Standards Board that have been adopted but are not yet effective will have a material effect on the Company’s financial reporting.


FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS


The carrying amounts reported in the balance sheet for cash, trade receivables, accounts payable and accrued expenses approximate fair value based on the short-term maturity of these instruments.


ACCOUNTING FOR LONG-LIVED ASSETS


The Company reviews its long-lived assets for impairment at least annually or whenever there circumstances and situations change such that there is an indication that the carrying amounts may not be recoverable. As of February 29, 2012 the Company does not believe that any of its assets are impaired.

ITEM 9. CHANGES IN AND DISAGREEMENTS WITH ACCOUNTANTS ON ACCOUNTING AND FINANCIAL DISCLOSURE


On October 20, 2011 McGrail Merkel Quinn & Associates, P.C., was dismissed as REPRO-MED SYSTEMS, INC.’s (the “Company”) independent registered public accounting firm, as approved by the board of directors. McGrail Merkel Quinn & Associates, P.C.’s, report on the Company’s financial statements for the two fiscal years ended February 28, 2011 and 2010 did not contain an adverse opinion or disclaimer of opinion, and was not qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope or accounting principles.


During the fiscal years ended February 28, 2011 and 2010, as well as the interim period preceding the dismissal of McGrail Merkel Quinn & Associates, P.C., there were no disagreements or reportable events of the kind described in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) between the Company and McGrail Merkel Quinn & Associates, P.C., on any matters of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure, or auditing scope or procedure which, if not resolved to the satisfaction of McGrail Merkel Quinn & Associates, P.C., would have caused McGrail Merkel Quinn & Associates, P.C., to make a reference to the subject matter of the disagreement or reportable event in connection with the issuance of its audit reports.


On October 20, 2011, the Board of Directors of REPRO-MED SYSTEMS, INC., approved the engagement of Radin, Glass & Co., LLP as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm for the year ending February 29, 2012. Radin Glass & Co., LLP’s engagement as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm commenced on October 20, 2011.


During the years ended February 28, 2010 and February 28, 2011, and through October 20, 2011, neither the Company nor anyone on its behalf has consulted with Radin Glass & Co., LLP with respect to either (i) the application of accounting principles to a specified transaction, either completed or proposed, or the type of audit opinion that might be rendered on the Company’s financial statements, and neither a written report nor oral advice was provided to the Company that Radin Glass & Co., LLP concluded was an important factor considered by the Company in reaching a decision as to any accounting, auditing or financial reporting issue; or (ii) any matter that was either the subject of a disagreement (as defined in Item 304(a)(1)(iv) of Regulation S-K and the related instructions to Item 304 of Regulation S-K) or a reportable event (as defined in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K).


ITEM 9A(T). CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES


EVALUATION OF DISCLOSURE CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES


An evaluation was performed under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer or CEO, and Chief Financial Officer or CFO, of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Exchange Act) as of February 29, 2012. Based on that evaluation, our management, including our CEO and CFO, concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures are effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our CEO and CFO, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.


MANAGEMENT’S REPORT ON INTERNAL CONTROL OVER FINANCIAL REPORTING


Management of the Company is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting. The Company’s internal control over financial reporting is a process designed under the supervision of the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, and implemented in conjunction with management and other personnel, to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of the Company’s consolidated financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles.


- 25 -



There are inherent limitations in the effectiveness of any internal control, including the possibility of human error and the circumvention or overriding of controls. Accordingly, even effective internal control can provide only reasonable assurance with respect to financial statement preparation. Further, because of changes in conditions, the effectiveness of internal control may vary over time.


Management assessed the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of February 29, 2012. This assessment was based on criteria for effective internal control over financial reporting described in “Internal Control - Integrated Framework,” issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organization of the Treadway Commission (COSO). Based on this assessment, management determined that, as of February 29, 2012, the Company maintained effective internal control over financial reporting.


This annual report does not include an attestation report of the Company’s registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting.

*Andrew I. Sealfon is deemed a “parent” and a “promoter” of REPRO-MED SYSTEMS, INC., as those terms are defined under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.


(1) Does not include 690,000 shares of common stock owned by members of Mr. Sealfon’s family, as to which Mr. Sealfon disclaims beneficial ownership.


(2) Includes beneficial shares owned by Andrea Baker.


Certain shares and/or options, which have been disclosed above, were issued to officers, directors, or 10% shareholders. The Company has reminded each of said directors to file an SEC Form 3, 4, or 5 as applicable, with respect to such stock issuances or option grants.


ITEM 13. CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS


To reduce corporate travel expenses, we maintain and operate a corporate aircraft. Since 1992, the aircraft has been leased from AMI Aviation, Inc. Mr. Sealfon is a majority shareholder in AMI Aviation. The lease expenses paid were $21,500 in each of 2012 and 2011. We believe the AMI lease is on terms competitive with those that could be obtained from unaffiliated third parties.


In February 2009, the Company borrowed $672,663 from a Director of the company, at 6% interest per annum. In June 2009, 755,000 shares of stock were issued to the director at $0.11 per share to reduce the debt. The remaining debt matures in February 2021.


In February 2011, the company added Mr. Mark Pastreich as a director. Mr. Pastreich is a principal in the company that owns the building leased by REPRO-MED SYSTEMS, INC. The Company is in year thirteen of a twenty-year lease. No changes have been made to the lease terms as a result of his directorship, and none are anticipated before the end of the lease.
