MANHATTAN SCIENTIFICS, INC.
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS — UNAUDITED
September 30, 2009

NOTE 1 — BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The foregoing unaudited interim financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial information and with the instructions for Form 10-Q and Regulation S-X as promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). Accordingly, these financial statements do not include all of the disclosures required by generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America for complete financial statements. These unaudited interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and the notes thereto included on Form 10-K for the period ended December 31, 2008. In the opinion of management, the unaudited interim financial statements furnished herein include all adjustments, all of which are of a normal recurring nature, necessary for a fair statement of the results for the interim period presented.

The preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America requires the use of estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities known to exist as of the date the financial statements are published, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Uncertainties with respect to such estimates and assumption are inherent in the preparation of the Company’s financial statements; accordingly, it is possible that the actual results could differ from these estimates and assumptions that could have a material effect on the reported amounts of the Company’s financial position and results of operations.

Operating results for the three and nine months period ended September 30, 2009 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2009. The consolidated financial information as of December 31, 2008 included herein has been derived from the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements as of, and for the fiscal year ended, December 31, 2008.

NOTE 2 — ORGANIZATION AND OPERATIONS

Manhattan Scientifics, Inc., a Delaware corporation (formerly Grand Enterprises, Inc) (“Grand”) was established on July 31, 1992 and has three wholly-owned subsidiaries: Metallicum, Inc., (“Metallicum”), Tamarack Storage Devices, Inc. (“Tamarack”) and Teneo Computing, Inc. (“Teneo”) (collectively “the Company”), a development stage enterprise. Currently, Metallicum is the only operating subsidiary; and Tamarack and Teneo are dormant. On June 12, 2008, the Company acquired Metallicum, Inc, for 15,000,000 shares of Company’s common stock. Manhattan Scientifics, Inc., operates as a technology incubator that seeks to acquire, develop and commercialize life-enhancing technologies in various fields, with emphasis in the areas of alternative energy, and consumer and commercial electronics. In this capacity, the Company continues to identify emerging technologies through strategic alliances with scientific laboratories, educational institutions, and scientists and leaders in industry and government. The Company has a long standing relationship with Los Alamos Laboratories in New Mexico. During 2008, the Company refocused its efforts from the development of its fuel cell technologies to its current focus on the development of nanomaterials through the acquisition of Metallicum.

Metallicum is a nanotechnology start-up company located in Santa Fe, New Mexico. Metallicum Inc. has focused on the development and manufacture of nanostructured metals for medical implants and other applications. Metallicum intends to establish manufacturing partner relationships with major Fortune 500 metals companies and strategic partnering with significant customers in the medical device & prosthetics industries as well as in auto, truck, & aircraft manufacturing industries. Metallicum’s initial products include nanostructured bulk metals and alloys in the form of rod, bar, wire and foil. The Company conducts its operations primarily in the United States.

Manhattan Scientifics purchased Metallicum to acquire its licensed rights to patented technology. The technology is comprised of three US Patents (US Patent numbers 7152448, 6197129 and 6399215) for which Metallicum (subsequently, Manhattan) had been assigned an exclusive license rights by Los Alamos National Security LLC (LANL). Under the license rights, Metallicum had all rights, title and interest throughout the world in and to any and all inventions, original works of authorship, developments, concepts, know-how, improvements on the patents or trade secrets whether or not patentable or registrable under copyright or similar laws.

MANHATTAN SCIENTIFICS, INC.
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS — UNAUDITED
September 30, 2009

NOTE 2 — ORGANIZATION AND OPERATIONS (continued)

In January 2009, the Company entered into a patent license agreement with Los Alamos National Security, LLC for the exclusive licensing use of certain technology relating to the manufacture and application of nanostructuring metals and alloys. Pursuant to such agreement the Company provided a non-refundable fee and 2,000,000 shares of common stock. Additionally, the Company is required to pay an annual license fee starting in February 2010 and royalties on future net sales.

In September 2009, the Company entered into a license agreement with Carpenter Technologies Corporation. wherein Carpenter will fully develop, manufacture and market a new class of high strength metals under an exclusive license from Manhattan Scientifics and the Los Alamos National Laboratory (see Note 10 for additional discussion). The proprietary process will enable super-strength metals and alloys to make products that weigh far less than in the past and without significant cost premiums.

The Company’s success will depend in part on its ability to obtain patents and product license rights, maintain trade secrets, and operate without infringing on the proprietary rights of others, both in the United States and other countries. There can be no assurance that patents issued to or licensed by the Company will not be challenged, invalidated, or circumvented, or that the rights granted thereunder will provide proprietary protection or competitive advantages to the Company.

NOTE 3 — GOING CONCERN UNCERTAINTY

These financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. The Company continues to incur recurring losses and at September 30, 2009, had a stockholders’ deficit of $692,000. For the nine months ended September 30, 2009, the Company sustained a net loss of $188,000. These factors, among others, indicate that the Company may be unable to continue as a going concern for a reasonable period of time. These financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts or the amounts and classification of liabilities that may be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern. The Company’s continuation as a going concern is contingent upon its ability to obtain additional financing, and to generate revenue and cash flow to meet its obligations on a timely basis.

NOTE 4 — SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUTING POLICIES AND RELATED MATTERS

Effective July 1, 2009, the Company adopted the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 105-10, “Generally Accepted Accounting Principles.” ASC 105-10 establishes the FASB Accounting Standards CodificationTM (“Codification”) as the source of authoritative accounting principles recognized by the FASB to be applied by nongovernmental entities in the preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP for SEC registrants. All guidance contained in the Codification carries an equal level of authority. The Codification supersedes all existing non-SEC accounting and reporting standards. The FASB will now issue new standards in the form of Accounting Standards Updates (“ASUs”). The FASB will not consider ASUs as authoritative in their own right. ASUs will serve only to update the Codification, provide background information about the guidance and provide the bases for conclusions on the changes in the Codification. References made to FASB guidance have been updated for the Codification throughout this document.

PRINCIPLES OF CONSOLIDATION:

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its three wholly-owned subsidiaries. All material intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated.

INTANGIBLE ASSETS:

License Agreements

In 2008, the Company obtained licenses to the rights of certain patents regarding nanostructured materials developed by another company as a result of the acquisition of Metallicum. The purchase price paid for these licenses was $305,000, which represents its fair value. In January 2009, the Company obtained an exclusive license on two patents and a non-exclusive license on the third patent. The value attributable to license agreements is being amortized over the period of its estimated benefit period of 10 years. At September 30, 2009, accumulated amortization was $37,000. Under the terms of the agreement, the Company may be required to pay royalties, as defined, to the licensors.

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amount of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. A significant estimate includes the carrying value of the Company’s patents, fair value of the Company’s common stock, assumptions used in calculating the value of stock options, depreciation and amortization.

INVESTMENTS

Available-for-Sale Investments

Investments that the Company designates as available-for-sale are reported at fair value, with unrealized gains and losses, net of tax, recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss). The Company determines the cost of the investment sold based on the specific identification method. The Company’s available-for-sale investments include:

•  
  Marketable equity securities The Company acquires these equity investments for the promotion of business and strategic objectives. The Company records the realized gains or losses on the sale or exchange of marketable equity securities in gains (losses) on other equity investments, net.

Non-Marketable and Other Equity Investments

The Company accounts for non-marketable and other equity investments under either the cost or equity method and include them in other long-term assets. The non-marketable and other equity investments include:

•  
  Non-marketable cost method investments when the equity method does not apply. We record the realized gains or losses on the sale of non-marketable cost method investments in gains (losses) on other equity investments, net.

INCOME TAXES

The Company accounts for its income taxes using the FASB ASC 740, subtopic No. 10, “Income Taxes,” which requires the establishment of a deferred tax asset or liability for the recognition of future deductible or taxable amounts and operating loss and tax credit carryforwards. Deferred tax expense or benefit is recognized as a result of timing differences between the recognition of assets and liabilities for book and tax purposes during the year.

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. Deferred tax assets are recognized for deductible temporary differences and operating loss, and tax credit carryforwards. A valuation allowance is established, when necessary, to reduce that deferred tax asset if it is “more likely than not” that the related tax benefits will not be realized.

STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION

The Company follows the provisions of FASB ASC 718 Compensation — Stock Compensation, which requires the measurement and recognition of compensation expense for all share-based payment awards to employees and directors based on estimated fair values. Additionally, the Company follows the SEC’s Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 107 “Share-Based Payment” (“SAB 107”), as amended by Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 110 (“SAB 110”), which provides supplemental application guidance based on the views of the SEC. The Company estimates the expected term, which represents the period of time from the grant date that the Company expects its stock options to remain outstanding, using the simplified method as permitted by SAB 107 and SAB 110. Under this method, the expected term is estimated as the mid-point between the time the options vest and their contractual terms. The Company continues to apply the simplified method because it does not have sufficient historical exercise data to provide a reasonable basis upon which to estimate the expected terms due to the limited period of time its equity shares have been publicly traded and the limited number of its options which have so far vested and become eligible for exercise.

The estimated fair value of grants of stock options and warrants to nonemployees of the Company is charged to expense, if applicable, in the financial statements. The Company did not issue any options or warrants during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2009.

FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

Effective January 1, 2008, the Company adopted FASB ASC 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures, Pre Codification SFAS No. 157, “Fair Value Measurements”, which provides a framework for measuring fair value under GAAP. Fair value is defined as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. The standard also expands disclosures about instruments measured at fair value and establishes a fair value hierarchy which requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. The standard describes three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value:

Level 1 — Quoted prices for identical assets and liabilities in active markets;

Level 2 — Quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar assets and liabilities in markets that are not active; and model-derived valuations in which all significant inputs and significant value drivers are observable in active markets; and

Level 3 — Valuations derived from valuation techniques in which one or more significant inputs or significant value drivers are unobservable.

The Company designates cash equivalents (consisting of money market funds) and investments in securities of publicly traded companies as Level 1. The total amount of the Company’s investment classified as Level 3 is de minimis.

The fair value of the Company’s debt as of September 30, 2009 and December 31, 2008 approximated fair value at those times.

Fair value of financial instruments: The carrying amounts of financial instruments, including cash and cash equivalents, short-term investments, accounts payable, accrued expenses and notes payables approximated fair value as of September 30, 2009 and December 31, 2008 because of the relative short term nature of these instruments. At September 30, 2009 and December 31, 2008 the fair value of the Company’s debt approximates carrying value. The fair value of the Company’s available for sale securities was $215,000 at September 30, 2009 and these securities are classified as Level 1. (See Note 6).

BASIC AND DILUTED LOSS PER SHARE

In accordance with FASB ASC 260, “Earnings Per Share,” the basic loss per share is computed by dividing the loss attributable to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Basic net loss per share excludes the dilutive effect of stock options or warrants and convertible notes Diluted net earnings (loss) per common share is determined using the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period, adjusted for the dilutive effect of common stock equivalents, consisting of shares that might be issued upon exercise of common stock options and warrants. In periods where losses are reported, the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding excludes common stock equivalents, because their inclusion would be anti-dilutive.

The Company’s computation of dilutive net loss per share for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2009 and 2008, does not assume any exercise of options, warrants or shares issuable upon conversion of the series B preferred stock and common shares, which totaled 40,245,000, and 4,000,000 respectively, for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2009 and 2008, as their effect is antidilutive.

Revenue Recognition:

To date the only revenue generated is from the sale of non-exclusive license agreements related to the Company’s technology and sample materials.

Revenue is recognized when the four basic criteria of revenue recognition are met: (i) a contractual agreement exists; (ii) transfer of technology (intellectual property) has been completed or services have been rendered; (iii) the fee is fixed or determinable, and (iv) collectability is reasonably assured.

RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING STANDARDS

FASB ASC 855 Subsequent Events, Pre Codification SFAS No. 165,Subsequent Events.” In May 2009, the FASB issued SFAS No. 165, “Subsequent Events” (“SFAS 165”). The objective of ASC 855 is to establish general standards of accounting for and disclosure of events that occur after the balance sheet date but before financial statements are issued or are available to be issued. ASC 855 discusses two types of subsequent events: (1) events that provide additional evidence about conditions that existed at the date of the balance sheet, and is recognized in the financial statements and (2) events that provide evidence about conditions that did not exist at the date of the balance sheet but arose after the balance sheet date but before financial statements are issued or are available to be issued, and not recognized at the balance sheet date. An entity shall also disclose the date through which subsequent events have been evaluated, as well as whether that date is the date the financial statements were issued or the date the financial statements were available to be issued. The requirements of ASC 855 are effective for interim and annual financial periods ending after June 15, 2009. The requirements do not have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements. The Company evaluated its September 30, 2009 financial statements for subsequent events through November 12, 2009, the date the financial statements were available to be issued.

FASB ASC 810 Consolidation, Pre Codification SFAS No. 160, “Noncontrolling Interests in Consolidated Financial Statements, an amendment of ARB No. 51”. On January 1, 2009, the Company adopted FASB ASC 810, “Noncontrolling Interests in Consolidated Financial Statements — an amendment of ARB No. 51,” (ASC 810). ASC 810 amends Accounting Research Bulletin No. 51, “Consolidated Financial Statements,” to establish accounting and reporting standards for the noncontrolling interest in a subsidiary and for the deconsolidation of a subsidiary. This standard defines a noncontrolling interest, previously called a minority interest, as the portion of equity in a subsidiary not attributable, directly or indirectly, to a parent. ASC 810-10-65 requires, among other items, that a noncontrolling interest be included in the consolidated statement of financial position within equity separate from the parent’s equity; consolidated net income to be reported at amounts inclusive of both the parent’s and noncontrolling interest’s shares and, separately, the amounts of consolidated net income attributable to the parent and noncontrolling interest all on the consolidated income statement; and if a subsidiary is deconsolidated, any retained noncontrolling equity investment in the former subsidiary be measured at fair value and a gain or loss be recognized in net income based on such fair value. The adoption of ASC 810-10-65 had no impact on the Company’s financial statements.

In November of 2008, the SEC released a proposed roadmap regarding the potential use by U.S. issuers of financial statements prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”). IFRS is a comprehensive series of accounting standards published by the International Accounting Standards Board (“IASB”). Under the proposed roadmap, the Company may be required in fiscal 2015 to prepare financial statements in accordance with IFRS. However, the SEC will make a determination in 2011 regarding the mandatory adoption of IFRS. We are currently assessing the impact that this potential change would have on our consolidated financial statements, and we will continue to monitor the development of the potential implementation of IFRS.

The Company has adopted all recently issued accounting pronouncements. The adoption of the accounting pronouncements, including those not yet effective, is not anticipated to have a material effect on the financial position or results of operations of the Company.

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

Forward Looking Statements

This Form 10-Q contains “forward-looking” statements including statements regarding our expectations of our future operations. For this purpose, any statements contained in this Form 10-Q that are not statements of historical fact may be deemed to be forward-looking statements. Without limiting the foregoing, words such as “may,” “will,” “expect,” “believe,” “anticipate,” “estimate,” or “continue” or comparable terminology are intended to identify forward-looking statements. These statements by their nature involve substantial risks and uncertainties, and actual results may differ materially depending on a variety of factors, many of which are not within our control. These factors include, but are not limited to, economic conditions generally and in the industries in which we may participate. In addition, these forward-looking statements are subject, among other things, to our successful completion of the research and development of our technologies; successful commercialization of our technologies; successful protection of our patents; and effective significant industry competition from various entities whose research and development, financial, sales and marketing and other capabilities far exceeds ours. In light of these risks and uncertainties, you are cautioned not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements. Except as required by law, we undertake no obligation to announce publicly revisions we make to these forward-looking statements to reflect the effect of events or circumstances that may arise after the date of this report.

HISTORY

Manhattan Scientifics, Inc., a Delaware corporation (formerly Grand Enterprises, Inc) (“Grand”) was established on July 31, 1992 and has three wholly-owned subsidiaries: Metallicum, Inc., (“Metallicum”), Tamarack Storage Devices, Inc. (“Tamarack”) and Teneo Computing, Inc. (“Teneo”) (collectively “the Company”), a development stage enterprise. Currently, Metallicum is the only operating subsidiary; and Tamarack and Teneo are dormant. On June 12, 2008, the Company acquired Metallicum, Inc, for 15,000,000 shares of Company’s common stock. The Company has a long standing relationship with Los Alamos Laboratories in New Mexico. During 2008, the Company refocused its efforts from the development of its fuel cell technologies to its current focus on the development of advanced materials through the acquisition of Metallicum.

OVERVIEW

Manhattan Scientifics, Inc. is a technology incubator that acquires, develops and commercializes life-enhancing technologies in various fields, with emphasis in the areas of advanced materials, alternative energy, electronics and medical technology. In that capacity, we have previously identified emerging technologies through strategic alliances with scientific laboratories, educational institutions, and scientists and leaders in industry and government.

In 2008, we purchased, in exchange for our common stock, Metallicum, Inc. and its licensed patented technology. Through Metallicum, we hope to take advantage of a unique processing methodology for producing nanostructures in a wide range of ductile metals and alloys and we are now attempting to commercialize this new and revolutionary technology. Nanostructured metals and alloys possess significantly enhanced mechanical properties that include, for example, increased strength without concurrent losses in ductility, and significantly increased resistance to fatigue fracture. Nanostructured commercially pure grades of titanium have proven to also possess excellent machinability as well as high toughness and strength.

In the recent past, we have worked to develop and commercialize three technologies:

•  
  Micro fuel cell technology, which is designed to become an ultra efficient miniature electricity generator that converts hydrogen into electricity by chemical means, for portable electronic devices, including cellular telephones, as a substitute for lithium ion and other batteries in common use today.

•  
  Mid-range fuel cell technology, which is an ultra efficient medium-size electricity generating device that converts hydrogen into electricity, with potential applications including personal transportation, cordless appliances, power tools, wheelchairs, bicycles, boats, emergency home generators, military field communications and laptop computers.

•  
  Haptics “Touch and Feel” computer applications, which is a technology that allows computer users to be able to touch and feel any objects they see on their computer screen with the aid of special “mouse.” Detailed texture, object-weight, stickiness, viscosity and object density can be “felt” or sensed. Management believes this haptics technology may positively impact the way computers are used everywhere by introducing the ability to “touch.” (Please see Haptics “Touch and Feel” Internet Applications and Investment in Novint Technologies, Inc.“

On October 20, 2009, we announced today that we entered into a non-binding letter of intent with Edward R. Flynn, Ph.D. and his company, Senior Scientific, LLC, to acquire all the manufacturing and marketing rights, together with all commercial rights associated with Dr. Flynn’s patents and intellectual property in the emerging field of nanomedicine. Dr. Flynn’s work is focused on the biomagnetic detection of cancer and other diseases through magnetic field sensors with enhanced accuracy.

OUR DEVELOPMENT MODEL

We intend to profit from the development of potentially disruptive or sea-change technologies. Our business model is to: (i) identify significant technologies, (ii) acquire them or the rights to them, (iii) secure the services of inventors, engineers or other staff who were instrumental in their creation, (iv) provide or contract for suitable work facilities, laboratories, and other aids where appropriate, (v) prototype the technologies to demonstrate “proof of principle” feasibility, (vi) secure patent and or other intellectual property protection, (vii) secure early customers for product trials where feasible and appropriate, and (viii) commercialize through licenses, sales or cooperative efforts with other manufacturing and distribution firms. Our license agreement with Carpenter Technologies Corporation and the revenues generated by our license agreement is one example of our success in acquiring, developing and commercializing life-enhancing technologies.

ADVANCED MATERIALS (METALLICUM, INC.)

In June 2008, we acquired Metallicum, Inc. (“Metallicum”) and its licensed patented technology. We entered into a stock purchase agreement with Metallicum, Inc. to acquire all of the outstanding capital in exchange for 15,000,000 shares of our common stock. An additional 15,000,000 shares of our common stock will be payable to Metallicum in the event of meeting certain milestones.

Metallicum is a nanotechnology start-up company located in Santa Fe, New Mexico. Metallicum has focused on the development and manufacture of nanostructured metals for medical implants and other applications. Metallicum intends to establish manufacturing partner relationships with major Fortune 500 metals companies and strategic partnering with significant customers in the medical device & prosthetics industries as well as in auto, truck, & aircraft manufacturing industries. Metallicum’s initial products include nanostructured bulk metals and alloys in the form of rod, bar, wire and foil.

We purchased Metallicum to acquire its licensed rights to patented technology. The technology is comprised of three US Patents (US Patent numbers 7152448, 6197129 and 6399215) for which Metallicum (subsequently, Manhattan) had been assigned an exclusive license rights by Los Alamos National Security LLC (LANL). Under the license rights, Metallicum had all rights, title and interest throughout the world in and to any and all inventions, original works of authorship, developments, concepts, know-how, improvements on the patents or trade secrets whether or not patentable or registerable under copyright or similar laws.

In January 2009, we entered into a patent license agreement with Los Alamos National Security, LLC for the exclusive licensing use of certain technology relating to the manufacture and application of nanostructuring metals and alloys. Pursuant to such agreement we provided a non-refundable fee and 2,000,000 shares of our common stock. Additionally, we are required to pay an annual license fee starting in February 2010 and royalties on future net sales.

The technology is expected to trim thousands of pounds from airplanes and hundreds of pounds from cars without sacrificing structural strength or adding significant cost. The nanostructured metals also have wide implications for use in the medical device and prosthetics industries including dental implants, replacements for hips, shoulders, knees and cardio vascular stents. In December 2008, a manufacturing joint venture partner in Albuquerque, N.M. received U.S. Food and Drug Administration 510(k) clearance to market nanostructured titanium metal dental implants using our technology. This clearance positions us closer to our goal of commercializing our technology for nanostructured metals. We are in talks with many of the key manufacturers of dental implants and have signed material testing agreements with several manufacturers.

In September 2009, we entered into a license agreement with Carpenter Technologies Corporation. wherein Carpenter will fully develop, manufacture and market a new class of high strength metals under an exclusive license from Manhattan Scientifics and the Los Alamos National Laboratory. The contract includes minimum annual payments to Manhattan Scientifics during a 4 year period together with royalty payments as a % of gross sales.. The proprietary process will enable super-strength metals and alloys to make products that weigh far less than in the past and without significant cost premiums. A patented new form of titanium metal originally developed by Russian scientists in concert with scientists at the Los Alamos National Laboratory is expected initially to significantly improve medical prosthetics. Studies have shown that bone integrates with these new metals up to 20 times faster than with conventional metals. In December, 2008, FDA approval was received for the $2 billion dental implant market. Carpenter is studying and considering other applications, including the transportation industry where stronger, lighter metals may impact fuel economy.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

THREE AND NINE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2009 COMPARED TO THREE AND NINE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2008.

REVENUES. We had $607,000 and $629,000 in revenues during the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2009. We had no revenues for the three or nine month periods ended September 30, 2008. During the three month period ended September 30, 2009, we entered into a technology transfer agreement which we received $600,000. We will be entitled to annual payment including certain royalties.

GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE. General and administrative expenses consists of consultants, contractors, accounting, legal, travel, rent, telephone and other day to day operating expenses. General and administrative expenses were $215,000 for the three months ended September, 2009 compared with $238,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2008. General and administrative expenses decreased as a result of lower professional fees.

General and administrative expenses were $755,000 for the nine months ended September, 2009 compared with $1,722,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2008. General and administrative expenses decreased in 2009 as a result of a 2008 grant of options for 18,000,000 shares of common stock with an exercise price of $0.013 granted to a consultant and our former CEO who currently serves a senior consultant. These options replaced 16,000,000 options previously granted with an exercise price of $0.05 per share. The value of these options totaled $1,034,000 which was valued using the Black-Scholes option pricing model based upon the following assumptions: stock price of $0.06 at grant date; 5 year term; volatility of 144%; and discount rate of 3.18%.

RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT. Research and development expenses were $25,000 and $25,000 for three and nine months ended September 30, 2009 compared to $52,000 and $156,000 in the same periods of the prior year reflecting the amortization of our patents. We fully amortized these patents in 2008.

NET INCOME (LOSS). Our net income (loss) was $354,000 for three months ended September 30, 2009 compared to $(188,000) for the three months ended September 30, 2008. The increase in net income resulted from revenue of $607,000 during the third quarter from our technology transfer agreement which we consummated in September 2009.

Our net loss was $(188,000) for nine months ended September 30, 2009 compared to $(1,861,000) for the nine months ended September 30, 2008. The decrease in net loss resulted from revenue of $607,000 in September 2009 from our technology transfer agreement and a decrease in general and administrative expense as a result of a decrease in stock options granted for services.

LIQUIDITY AND PLAN OF OPERATIONS

Until 2009, we have relied primarily upon private placements and subscription sales of stock to fund our continuing activities and acquisitions. To a limited extent, we have also relied upon borrowing from our officers. We intend to fund our future operations with tour revenues augmented by private placements of our stock, if necessary.

At September 30, 2009, our significant assets include our cash on hand. portfolio of intellectual property, 1,075,648 shares of common stock of Novint. We also have our contracts with third parties pertaining to technology development, acquisition, and licensing, and our strategic alliances with various scientific laboratories, educational institutions, scientists and leaders in industry and government.

We had an increase of $59,000 in cash and cash equivalents for the nine months ended September 30, 2009 compared with a $210,000 increase in cash and cash equivalents in the nine months ended September 30, 2008. The decrease in cash generated in 2009 resulted from lower proceeds from the issuance of common stock net of offering costs ($567,000) partially offset by less cash used in operating activities as a result of revenue from our technology transfer agreement. The increase in cash used in operating activities was the result of revenue of $607,000 from our technology transfer agreement.

Working capital was a deficit of $992,000 on September 30, 2009 compared with a deficit of $1,165,000 on December 31, 2008.

Stockholders’ equity totaled a deficit of $692,000 on September 30, 2009 compared with a deficit of $842,000 on December 31, 2008. During April 2008 through January 2009, we sold approximately $1,100,000 from a private placement offering at a price of $0.02 per share.

We have one full-time employee. We do not expect any significant change in the total number of employees in the near future. We intend to continue to identify and target appropriate technologies for possible acquisition and licensing over the next 12 months.

Based upon current projections, our principal cash requirements for the next 12 months consists of (1) fixed expenses, including rent, payroll, investor relations services, public relations services, bookkeeping services, graphic design services, consultant services, and reimbursed expenses; and (2) variable expenses, including technology research and development, milestone payments, intellectual

property protection, utilities and telephone, office supplies, additional consultants, legal and accounting. As of September 30, 2009, we had $626,000 in cash. We intend to satisfy our capital requirements for the next 12 months by continuing to pursue private placements to raise capital, using our common stock as payment for services in lieu of cash where appropriate, borrowing as appropriate, and our cash on hand. However, we do not know if those resources will be adequate to cover our capital requirements.

RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING STANDARDS

The Company has adopted all recently issued accounting pronouncements. The adoption of the accounting pronouncements, including those not yet effective, is not anticipated to have a material effect on the financial position or results of operations of the Company.

Effective July 1, 2009, the Company adopted the Financial Accounting Standards Board (”FASB“) Accounting Standards Codification (”ASC“) 105-10, “Generally Accepted Accounting Principles.” ASC 105-10 establishes the FASB Accounting Standards Codification™ (“Codification”) as the source of authoritative accounting principles recognized by the FASB to be applied by nongovernmental entities in the preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP for SEC registrants. All guidance contained in the Codification carries an equal level of authority. The Codification supersedes all existing non-SEC accounting and reporting standards. The FASB will now issue new standards in the form of Accounting Standards Updates (“ASUs”). The FASB will not consider ASUs as authoritative in their own right. ASUs will serve only to update the Codification, provide background information about the guidance and provide the bases for conclusions on the changes in the Codification. References made to FASB guidance have been updated for the Codification throughout this document.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ESTIMATES

Our discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations are based upon our consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amount of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. A significant estimate includes the carrying value of our patents, fair value of our common stock, assumptions used in calculating the value of stock options, depreciation and amortization.

License Agreements

In 2008, we obtained licenses to the rights of certain patents regarding nanostructured materials developed by another company as a result of the acquisition of Metallicum. The purchase price paid for these licenses was $305,000, which represents its fair value. We obtained an exclusive license on two patents and a non-exclusive license on the third patent. The value attributable to license agreements is being amortized over the period of its estimated benefit period of 10 years. At September 30, 2009, accumulated amortization was $37,000. Under the terms of the agreement, we may be required to pay royalties, as defined, to the licensors.

Investments - Available-for-Sale Investments

Investments that we designate as available-for-sale are reported at fair value, with unrealized gains and losses, net of tax, recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss). We determine the cost of the investment sold based on the specific identification method. Our available-for-sale investments include Marketable equity securities. We acquire these equity investments for the promotion of business and strategic objectives. We record the realized gains or losses on the sale or exchange of marketable equity securities in gains (losses) on other equity investments, net

Stock-Based Compensation:

The Company follows the provisions of FASB ASC 718 Compensation — Stock Compensation, which requires the measurement and recognition of compensation expense for all share-based payment awards to employees and directors based on estimated fair values. The Company estimates the expected term, which represents the period of time from the grant date that the Company expects its stock options to remain outstanding, using the simplified method as permitted by SAB 107 and SAB 110. Under this method, the expected term is estimated as the mid-point between the time the options vest and their contractual terms. The Company continues to apply the simplified method because it does not have sufficient historical exercise data to provide a reasonable basis upon which to estimate the expected terms due to the limited period of time its equity shares have been publicly traded and the limited number of its options which have so far vested and become eligible for exercise.

The estimated fair value of grants of stock options and warrants to nonemployees of the Company is charged to expense, if applicable, in the financial statements. The Company did not issue any options or warrants during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2009.

OFF BALANCE SHEET ARRANGEMENTS

We have not entered into any off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources and would be considered material to investors.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

Not applicable

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

(a)  
  Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Our principal executive officer and principal financial officer have evaluated the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) or 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)) as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

Management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal controls over financial reporting. Beginning in 2007, management outsourced its accounting function including the financial reporting aspects to a CPA firm. Concerning these outsourced services, management did not receive a SAS 70 (type 1 nor type 2) audit report covering the internal controls over the services provided by the CPA firm. Absent this report, and based upon management’s knowledge of our operations and accounting functions, management’s assessment concerning the effectiveness of our internal controls and disclosure controls and procedures is that those are not effective to provide reasonable assurance that material information required to be included in our periodic SEC reports is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC rules and forms, and accumulated and communicated to our senior management, including our CEO, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures.

Our known material weaknesses include:

Resources: As of December 31, 2008, we had one full-time employee in general management and no full-time employees with the requisite expertise in the key functional areas of finance and accounting. As a result, there is a lack of proper segregation of duties necessary to insure that all transactions are accounted for accurately and in a timely manner.

Written Policies & Procedures: We need to prepare written policies and procedures for accounting and financial reporting to establish a formal process to close our books monthly on an accrual basis and account for all transactions, including equity transactions, and prepare, review and submit SEC filings in a timely manner.

Audit Committee: We do not have, and are not required, to have an audit committee. An audit committee would improve oversight in the establishment and monitoring of required internal controls and procedures.

Given the existence of these material weaknesses, management believes that other, non-identified material weaknesses may have existed and continue to exist. These material weaknesses will be remedied as described below.

Management is committed to improving its internal controls and will (1) perform an assessment of its internal control using the COSO framework or other framework as deemed appropriate, (2) continue to use third party specialists to address shortfalls in staffing and to assist us with accounting and finance responsibilities, (3) increase the frequency of independent reconciliations of significant accounts which will mitigate the lack of segregation of duties until there are sufficient personnel and (4) prepare and implement sufficient written policies and checklists for financial reporting and closing processes and (5) may consider appointing an audit committee comprised of independent board members in the future.

This periodic report does not include an attestation report by our registered public accounting firm regarding our internal controls over financial reporting.

(b)  
  Changes in Internal Controls

There have not been any changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) during the quarter ended September 30, 2009 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

PART II

ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

We are subject from time to time to litigation, claims and suits arising in the ordinary course of business. As of September 30, 2009, we were not a party to any material litigation, claim or suit whose outcome could have a material effect on our financial statements.

ITEM 2 UNREGISTERED SALES OF EQUITY SECURITIES AND USE OF PROCEEDS

In January 2009, the Company entered into a patent license agreement with Los Alamos National Security, LLC for the exclusive licensing use of certain technology relating to the manufacture and application of nanostructuring metals and alloys. Pursuant to such agreement we provided a non-refundable fee and 2,000,000 shares of our common stock.

In February 2009, the Company issued 14,250,000 shares of common stock for approximately $201,000 from a private placement offering. The private placement originally provided for the offer and sale of up to 50,000,000 unregistered shares of the Company’s common stock at a price of $0.02 per share, for an aggregate of $1,000,000 and allowed the Company to accept or reject any oversubscription. As of September 30, 2009, the Company has sold a total of 53,657,000 shares of common stock related to the private placement for total proceeds of $1,051,000 and incurred offering costs approximating $46,000 of which $27,000 was paid in cash and 750,000 shares of common stock were issued.

In February 2009, we issued 1,000,000 shares to a consultant for services to be performed for a total value of $50,000 or $0.050 per share. In February 2009, we issued 300,000 shares of common stock to a consultant for past services for a total value of $15,000 or $0.05 per share which had been included in accrued expenses at December 31, 2008.

In May 2009, we issued 2,025,000 shares of common stock related to stock options exercised on a cashless basis. Shares exercisable under the stock option agreement totaled 3,000,000 at an exercise price of $0.013 per share. The closing stock price on the date of exercise was $0.04 per share resulting in 975,000 shares as the portion of the stock option agreement being retained as the cost for the 3,000,000 shares having been exercised on a cashless basis.

In May 2009, we issued 1,000,000 shares of common stock for legal services with a fair value of $30,000.
