(“TSFL”), Jason Enterprises, Inc., Jason Properties, LLC and Seven Crondall, LLC. The Company is engaged in the production, distribution, and sale of weight management and disease management products and other consumable health and diet products.

MARKETS

Throughout the past 30 years, obesity in the United States has dramatically increased. The obesity epidemic shows no signs of slowing down and recently, the condition has worsened among Americans rather than improved. Approximately 1.7 billion people worldwide are overweight; however the percentage of overweight adults is the highest in the United States, with two-thirds of all Americans being overweight or obese.

According to a recent study, “Prevalence of Obesity and Overweight in the United States”, published in April 2006 in the Journal of American Medical Association, almost 7 out of 10 adults in the U.S. are overweight or obese, with 60 million (or about thirty percent) American adults suffering from obesity. The obesity epidemic raises concern among Americans because of the implications associated with their health. The most common health conditions associated with obesity are type II diabetes, coronary heart disease, hypertension and stroke, sleep apnea and respiratory problems, gallbladder disease, depression and certain forms of cancer.

The Center for Disease Control and Prevention shows that obesity is not only affecting adults, but children and adolescents as well. According to the CDC, the obesity prevalence in children and adolescents has tripled since 1976. Overweight and obesity in children and adolescents pose serious risks for health problems such as high blood pressure, high cholesterol and Type 2 Diabetes.

Type 2 Diabetes is expected to increase by 165 % between 2000 and 2050 according to a study “Projection of diabetes burden through 2050: impact of change demography and disease prevalence in the U.S.”, published 2001 in Diabetes Care. In addition, a study published in October 2007 by the CDC states children are now being affected by this disease also. Almost half the diabetic children in the United States are Type 2. Obese children suffering from Type 2 diabetes also suffer from various related conditions such as amputations, kidney problems and blindness.

It is important to note the difference between overweight and obese. Obesity among adults is defined as a Body Mass Index (BMI) of 30 or higher; overweight is defined as a BMI of 25 to 30. According to a recent study conducted by the Center for Disease Control and Prevention in 2006, only four (4) states in the U.S.A. had a prevalence of obesity less than twenty percent (20 %). Twenty-two states showed a prevalence equal or greater than twenty-five percent (25%), and two of those states had a prevalence of obesity equal to or greater than thirty percent (30%).

The primary obesity causing factors are preventable and well known in the United States. These factors are unhealthy diet and physical inactivity. It’s estimated that poor nutrition and physical inactivity account for more than 300,000 premature deaths per year in the U.S. Many Americans ignore this despite what research studies show. According to the United States Department of Health and Human Services, only 25% of the adults and less than 25% of the teenagers include the suggested 5 or more servings of vegetables and fruits in their daily meal. 50% or more of the American adults do not do the suggested amount of physical activities. More than 1/3 of the young Americans do not engage themselves in regular vigorous physical activities.

The United States Department of Human and Health Services states that Americans spend $117 billion in costs associated with overweight and obesity. Direct medical and healthcare costs total $93 billion. The U.S. weight loss market is estimated to be a $ 55 billion/ year industry. This includes consumer spending on diet foods, health clubs, commercial weight loss centers, low-calorie prepared foods, medically supervised and commercial weight loss programs, diet books, appetite suppressants, artificial sweeteners, diet sodas, videos and cassettes, children’s weight loss camps and more. More specifically, the market for diet food home delivery is a rapidly growing $800 million industry in the United States.

Distribution Channels

Medifast Direct – Medifast’s primary distribution channel is the direct-to-consumer business. Here, customers have access to support from qualified nutritional practitioners and customer care representatives via telephone, e-mail and online chats. Medifast Direct offers a robust online web community and library for support, information and meal planning for weight loss and weight maintenance. This business is driven by an aggressive multi-media customer acquisition strategy that includes print, television, radio, direct mail and web advertising as well as public relations initiatives. In 2007, the Medifast Direct division focused on targeted marketing initiatives and providing customer support through its in house call center and nutrition support teams to better serve its clients. In addition, Medifast also continued to promote its use of leading web technology featuring customized meal planning and community components.

Take Shape for Life™ - Take Shape for Life is a physician led network of independent health coaches who are trained to provide coaching and support to client on Medifast programs. Health coaches are conduits to give clients the strategies and skills to successfully reach a healthy weight and then provide a road map to empower the individual to take control of their health. Take Shape for Life offers the exclusive BeSlim^TM philosophy, which encourages long-term weight maintenance. Take Shape for Life also moves beyond the scope of weight loss to show customers how to achieve optimal health through the balance of body, mind, and finances. Take Shape for Life uses the high quality, medically validated products of Medifast as the platform to launch integrity based lifelong health optimization program.

Program entrants are encouraged to consult with their primary care physician and a Take Shape for Life Health Coach to determine the Medifast program that is right for them. Health Coaches are supported, educated and qualified by The Health Institute, a training group staffed by Medifast professionals. Health Advisors obtain Medifast qualification based upon testing of their knowledge on Medifast products and programs.

Medifast Physicians –Medifast physicians have implemented the Medifast program within their practice. These physicians carry an inventory of Medifast products and resell them to patients. They also provide appropriate medical monitoring, testing, and support for patients on the program. Management estimates that more than 15,000 physicians nationwide have recommended Medifast as a treatment for their overweight patients since 1980, and over an estimated 1 million patients have used its’ products to lose and maintain their weight.

The Company offers an additional in-house support program to assist customers that are consulting their primary care physician. Customers have access to registered dieticians that provide program support and advice via a toll free telephone help line, by e-mail and online chats.

Medifast Weight Control Centers – In 2007, Medifast continued to enhance the operations in the ten corporately owned weight control centers. The Medifast Weight Control Center is the brick and mortar clinic channel of Medifast located in Texas and Florida. The centers offer a supervised model and a nationally advertised brand which encourages walk-ins and referrals from other Medifast business channels. In addition to offering a comprehensive Medifast program, the clinics offered customized patient counseling programs, and the Inbody ^TM composition analysis. The Company intends to open additional corporately owned Medifast Weight Control Centers in the Houston, Texas market in 2008 as well as offering the model to franchise.

The Company continues to support its private label licensee model, Hi-Energy, by providing marketing materials, ads, on-site trainings, fitness programs, nutritional programs and clinical operation materials and forms.

THE MEDIFAST® BRAND

Medifast enriches lives by providing innovative choices for lasting health through products and programs. Medifast is physician recommended and clinically proven offering programs for weight management, weight maintenance and long term health through multiple channels of distribution. Medifast products are high quality, portion controlled meal replacement foods. In recent years, Medifast’s core products and programs have continued to expand over a wellness spectrum to include health management products including products specially formulated for people with diabetes as well as products for women’s health, joint health and coronary health.

While the entire Medifast line is Diabetic Friendly, Medifast has created products tailored to meet the needs of people with diabetes. Many Medifast Plus for Diabetics products have earned the coveted Seal of Approval from the Glycemic Research Institute. The line, designated as Low Glycemic, does not overly stimulate blood glucose and insulin and does not stimulate fat-storing enzymes. Products included in the Medifast Plus for Diabetics line consist of three delicious patented shakes, and two meal replacement bars.

Most Medifast products qualify to make the FDA’s heart healthy claim, “May Reduce the Risk of Heart Disease.” In order to make this claim, a product must contain at least 6.25 grams of soy protein per serving and be low in fat, saturated fat, and cholesterol. Unlike popular fad diets and herbal supplements, Medifast products are a safe, nutritionally balanced choice, offering gender specific formulas containing high protein and low carbohydrates, a soy protein source rather than animal protein source, and vitamin and mineral fortification. It is very difficult to meet the minimum recommended nutritional requirements on a low-calorie diet, but a dieter can easily meet these requirements using the nutrient dense Medifast brand of meal replacement food supplements.

Portion controlled, meal replacement weight management programs are continuing to gain popularity, as consumers search for a safe and effective solution that provides balanced nutrition, quick weight loss and valuable behavior modification education. In addition, consumers are becoming more aware of chronic diseases such as diabetes and coronary health.

Clinical Research Overview

Medifast uses both clinical research studies and retrospective analysis data from its Medifast clinics as the basis of its claim, “clinically proven.” An overview of Medifast clinical research is provided below.

Crowell, M.D. & Cheskin L.J, the Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine. Multicenter Evaluation of Health Benefits and Weight Loss on the Medifast Weight Management Program.

The purpose of this study was to retrospectively evaluate the efficacy of a medically supervised, protein-supplemented modified fasting program (Medifast) for weight reduction and to evaluate the impact of weight reduction on coexisting health problems. The results of the study concluded that medically-supervised, protein-sparing modified fasts offer a safe and effective means of weight reduction and are accompanied by significant improvements in coexisting health problems. Of samples taken, males lost an average of 67 lbs and females lost an average of 47 lbs during fasting. The study found significant reductions in systolic and diastolic blood pressure, total cholesterol and triglycerides, as well as the normalizing of blood pressure and hypertensive patients.

Cheskin, MD, FACP, Mitchell, MS, Lewis, BA, Javeri, MD Yep, BS. Johns Hopkins University School of Bloomberg Public Health. Efficacy of 2 Diet Plans Designed for People with Type 2 Diabetes on Weight and Health Measures

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the efficacy of the standard ADA (American Diabetic Association) self-selected diet (SD) vs. a portion controlled diabetic food diet (PCD) in obese patients with NIDDM. The study also evaluated not only the metabolic effects in the long term, but also compliance and any consequent medication changes in patients of the two weight loss regimens. (16-34 weeks of active weight loss, 52 weeks of maintenance) The meal replacements (Medifast) used in this study are soy-based products (bars, shakes, soups) that are considerably lower in sugar than their non-diabetic counterparts and other popular diet products on the market.

The results discussion is as follows. Significantly greater results were achieved after the initial 34-weeks of weight loss by participants in the PCD group in pounds and percent weight loss, insulin level and hemoglobin A1c. The PCD group also saw significant improvements within group in BMI, systolic BP, diastolic BP, waist/hip measurements, cholesterol, HDL triglycerides, glucose and percent body fat. Dropout rates were less in the PCD in both weight loss and weight maintenance. During weight loss, participants in the PCD group significantly decreased their use of medications to treat Type 2 DM. Participants in the PCD group also self-reported higher ease of compliance with the diet compared to the SD group (64.2% vs. 56.0%).

Researchers recommended that a PCD be considered for type 2 diabetics desiring weight loss, but that periodic use of SD during weight maintenance will not adversely affect weight loss efforts. The research supports that using a portion-controlled diet will produce comparable if not better outcomes in type 2 diabetics attempting to control their weight.

The study was published in the 2008 January/February issue of 'The Diabetes Educator'. The peer-reviewed journal is the official journal of the American Association of Diabetes Educators. The study was also presented at American Diabetes Association’s 65^th Annual Scientific Session in San Diego, CA, June 11, 2005.

Efficacy of Parent-Child Dieting Plans Incorporating Medifast Meal Replacements for Weight Loss. RCT Comparing Balanced Energy Deficit Diets With or Without Meal Replacements for Weight Loss and Maintenance Among Children Dieting Alone or With a Parent. Lawrence J. Cheskin, Lisa M. Davis, Andrea Hanlon-Mitola, Amy Mitchell, Ami Jhaveri, Mary Yep, Vanessa Mitchell. Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health, Center for Human Nutrition, Department of International Health, Baltimore, MD 21205

The study compared the safety and efficacy of supplemental Medifast portion-controlled meal replacements (MRs) with a USDA Food Guide Pyramid-based diet. Both weight loss diets were 20% energy-restricted (~500 kcal deficit). 80, 8-15yo children, BMI>95^th%ile, were screened and 40 randomized to either a MR diet (3 MRs/d during active weight loss and 2 MRs/d during maintenance) or to the food-based diet. Subjects were further randomized to dieting alone or with a parent. Results: By ITT analysis, dieting with a parent, or food vs. MR, made no difference in weight outcome. However, following initial weight loss (6mos) and 1yr maintenance (18mos), significant (p≤0.05) benefits were seen in the MR group in BMI%ile (0 mos=98.8 ± 1.0, 6 mos=96.6 ± 3.2, 18 mos=96.4 ± 3.4); body fat (↓5.9%@6 mos, 5.3%@ 18 mos), total cholesterol (↓6.7%, 5.6%), LDL (↓19.8%, 7.9%) and triglycerides (↓23.6%, 22.3%). No significant between-group differences, differences in growth rates, or adverse events were observed. Conclusions: Among overweight 8-15yo children, dieting with or without a parent, meal replacements were as safe and effective as a food-based diet for weight loss and maintenance.

Effectiveness of Medifast Supplements Combined with Obesity Pharmacotherapy: A Clinical Program Evaluation. Principle Investigators: Drs. Walker S.C. Poston, C. Keith Haddock, Jennifer E. Taylor, John Foreyt.

The purpose of the study is to evaluate the long-term impact of Medifast meal-replacement supplements combined with appetite suppressant medication (ASM) among participants who received a minimum of 12-weeks of treatment.

Results of this study were presented at the American Society of Bariatric Physicians annual meeting in May 2007 and the study is pending publication in a medical journal.

National Institutes of Health: Impaired Capacity to Lose Visceral Adipose Tissue during Weight Reduction in Obese Postmenopausal Women with the Trp64Arg B3- Adrenoceptor Gene Variant

This study examined whether women on a weight loss program who are carriers of a genetic variant (Trp64Arg) lose less visceral fat than women who do not have this gene. Participants entered a medically supervised weight loss program aimed at reducing body weight to less than 120% of ideal value. Food was self selected with dietitian supervision, with or without the inclusion of the TakeShape^TM, a Medifast brand modified fasting supplement.

Results from the study showed that reductions in body weight, BMI, total fat mass and fat-free mass were not significantly different between carriers and non-carriers of the variant. Both groups experienced weight reduction of 31-36.1 pounds, which the study identified as a significant weight loss effect.

An Evaluation of Weight Loss following a Carbohydrate and Fat Restricted Diet with Appetite Suppressant and Dietary Supplementation. Vivienne Matalon, M.D. The Bariatrician Summer 2000

This was an open label trial designed to assess the safety and effectiveness of a weight loss regimen consisting of a carbohydrate and fat restricted diet, supplemented with an appetite suppressant, a dietary supplement and a liquid protein drink (Medifast). At baseline, evaluations included a history and physical, and measurements of total body weight (lbs), body fat (%), BMI, lean body mass, water weight and blood pressure. Patients were then seen weekly for 6 months. At each weekly visit, total weight, % body fat, BMI, lean body mass, water weight and BP were noted. At the end of the study statistically significant differences from baseline to final value were noted for body weight (P<.001), percent body fat (P<.001), BMI (P<.001), lean body mass (P<.001), water weight (P=.01) and body systolic (P=.003) and diastolic (P<.001) blood pressure.

Of 47 patients enrolled, 24 (51%) completed six months using the dietary regimen prescribed. Data was analyzed for all patients who were treated with the diet, as well as for the subset of patients who completed the entire study period. The dietary regimen showed that a carbohydrate and fat restricted program supplemented by a natural appetite suppressant can lead to progressive weight loss of comparable value to prescribed pharmacologic agents at the time of study. Patients in the study experienced statistically significant decreases in overall body weight, percent body fat, BMI, lean body mass, total body water and both systolic and diastolic blood pressure.

COMPETITION

There are many different kinds of diet products and programs within the weight loss industry. These include a wide variety of commercial weight loss programs, pharmaceutical products, weight loss books, self-help diets, dietary supplements, appetite suppressants and meal replacement shakes and bars. Some of Medifast’s top competitors are Jenny Craig, Nutrisystems, EDiets, Herbalife, and Weight Watchers.

The Company has proven it can compete in this competitive market because its products have been clinically tested and proven in clinical studies conducted by researchers from Johns Hopkins University and other major institutions, the Medifast products have been safely and effectively used by customers and recommended by physicians for over 25 years. Medifast has been on the cutting edge of product development with soy based nutritional and weight management products since 1980. These products are formulated with high-quality, low-calorie, low-fat ingredients that provide alternatives to fad diets or medicinal weight loss remedies.

The Company’s diverse multi-channel distribution strategy makes the Medifast brand available through multiple support channels, which target different customer needs. Medifast practitioners offer Medifast to patients through wholesale or an innovative home delivery model and some practitioners choose to prescribe appetite suppression diet drugs to patients in conjunction with a Medifast based diet. Medifast Direct via the website and call center serves customers with free online support and community tools and access to nutritionists and customer service representatives. The Take Shape for Life division offers the personal support of a health coach that is often a person who has achieved success on the Medifast program and has turned their success into a business opportunity generating incremental revenue for the company through relationship marketing. Medifast Weight Control Centers offer a medically supervised and structured model for customers who prefer more accountability and personalized counseling on the program. The Medifast program alone is a mild ketogenic diet that naturally suppresses appetite and eliminates hunger without other therapies for most people.

PRODUCTS

The Company offers a variety of weight and disease management products under the Medifast® brand and for select private label customers. The Medifast line includes Medifast® 55 Shakes, Medifast® 70 Shakes, Medifast® Plus for Appetite Suppression Shakes, Medifast® Plus for Women’s Health Shakes, Medifast® Plus for Diabetics Shakes, Medifast® Plus for Joint Health Shakes, Medifast® Plus for Coronary Health Shakes, Medifast® Bars, Medifast® Creamy Soups, Medifast® Chicken Noodle Soup, Medifast® Chicken & Wild Rice Soup, Medifast® Beef Vegetable Stew, Medifast® Home-style Chili, Medifast® Oatmeal, Medifast® Pudding, Medifast® Scrambled Eggs, Medifast® Hot Cocoa, Medifast® Cappuccino, Medifast® Chai Latte, Medifast® Iced Teas, Medifast® Fruit Drinks, Medifast® Soy Crisps, and Medifast® Crackers.

Medifast nutritional products are formulated with high-quality, low-calorie, and low-fat ingredients. Many Medifast products are soy based and contain 24 vitamins and minerals, as well as other nutrients essential for good health. The Company uses Solae® brand soy protein, which is a high-quality complete protein derived from soybeans.

Medifast brand awareness continues to expand through the Company’s marketing campaigns, product development, line extensions, and the Company’s emphasis on quality customer service, technical support and publications developed by the Company’s marketing staff. Medifast products have been proven to be effective for weight and disease management in clinical studies conducted by researchers from the U.S. government and Johns Hopkins University. The Company has continued to develop its sales and marketing operations with qualified management and innovative programs. The Company’s facility in Owings Mills, MD manufactures all powders and subcontracts the production of its Ready-To-Drink products and meal replacement bars.

NEW PRODUCTS

The Company expanded the Medifast product line in 2007 by introducing Maryland Crab Soup and reformulating our current line. The reformulation resulted in an increase of 4 grams of fiber to various products including the 55, 70, and Plus lines, as well as various soups, Cappuccino and Chai Latte. Both the Chicken Noodle Soup and Chicken Wild rice soup were redesigned to provide additional protein. Many products were also reformulated to decrease the amount of carbohydrates as well.

MARKETING

In 2007, the Company continued to build and leverage its core Medifast brand through multiple marketing strategies to its target audiences. Customer acquisition strategies include national advertising in print magazines, television commercials, web advertising, direct mailings, and radio commercials. In addition, the Company executed strategic public relations efforts to secure local and national editorial placements to raise brand awareness. These mediums were used to target new customers by stressing Medifast's quick, easy and safe approach to weight management. The Company invested in two celebrity contracts with preliminary marketing and media campaigns launching in late 2007. Direct mail campaigns, e-mail newsletters and outbound calling programs were utilized to reactivate, encourage and support existing customers. In 2007, Medifast continued to enhance the Medifast website including added features in the “My Medifast” community which offers meal planning, community message boards, blogs and a robust library of information. The Company also continued to feature customer blogs on the website for potential customers to interact with loyal Medifast customers. Late in 2007, the Company launched an auto ship loyalty program where customers receive discounts and rewards with automatic shipments of Medifast Meals on a monthly basis. Both the MyMedifast community enhancements and Auto-ship program contribute to the retention of Medifast customer through improved compliance with the program.

SALES

The Company’s Sales division handles four primary areas:

Physician Sales - The sales team is responsible for prospecting medical accounts, clinics, hospitals, and HMOs. During 2007, the sales team attended a number of medical professional trade shows, which expanded Medifast's penetration of the medical weight loss business segment.

Medifast Weight Control Center Franchises - The brick and mortar clinics have Counselors that sell Medifast products and full service programs which include weekly one-on-one counseling sessions, medical monitoring and physician oversight. Franchise sales seek qualified partners to develop defined market territories.

Corporate Wellness - Provides Medifast Corporate Health Solutions to corporate clients who seek to provide employee wellness programs with evidence based weight management programs.

International - Sales manages our bulk export business and has responsibility to qualify and develop new international business partners.

MANUFACTURING

Jason Pharmaceuticals, Inc., the Company’s wholly owned manufacturing subsidiary, produces over 80% of the Medifast products in a state-of-the-art food and pharmaceutical-grade facility in Owings Mills, Maryland. Management purchased the plant in July 2002 for $3.4 million. The Company has also invested in increasing production capacity with the purchase of two additional manufacturing lines and a larger capacity blender. The lines have significantly improved the Company's production capability, while also improving its overall efficiencies.

The manufacturing facility has the capacity for significant increases to its production output with minimal capital expenditures. Adding additional shifts will enable the Company to produce enough products to generate over $250 million in sales.

Manufacturing processes, product labeling, quality control and equipment are subject to regulations and inspections mandated by the Food & Drug Administration (FDA), the Maryland State Department of Health and Hygiene, and the Baltimore County Department of Health. The plant strictly adheres to all GMP practices and has maintained its status as an "OU" (Orthodox Union) kosher-approved facility since 1982.

GOVERNMENTAL REGULATION HISTORY

The formulation, processing, packaging, labeling and advertising of the Company's products are subject to regulation by several federal agencies, but principally by the Food and Drug Administration (the "FDA"). The Company must comply with the standards, labeling and packaging requirements imposed by the FDA for the marketing and sale of foods and nutritional supplements. Applicable regulations prevent the Company from representing in its literature and labeling that its products produce or create medicinal effects or possess drug-related characteristics. The FDA could, in certain circumstances, require the reformulation of certain products to meet new standards, require the recall or discontinuation of certain products not capable of reformulation, or require additional record keeping, expanded documentation of the properties of certain products, expanded or different labeling, and scientific substantiation. If the FDA believes the products are unapproved drugs or food additives, the FDA may initiate similar enforcement proceedings. Any or all such requirements could adversely affect the Company's operations and its financial condition.

To the extent that sales of foods and nutritional supplements may constitute improper trade practices or endanger the safety of consumers, the operations of the Company may also be subject to the regulations and enforcement powers of the Federal Trade Commission ("FTC"), and the Consumer Product Safety Commission. The Company's activities are also regulated by various agencies of the states and localities in which the Company's products are sold. The Company's products are manufactured and packaged in accordance with customers’ specifications and sold under their private labels both domestically and in foreign countries through independent distribution channels.

PRODUCT LIABILITY AND INSURANCE

The Company, like other producers and distributors of ingested products, faces an inherent risk of exposure to product liability claims in the event that, among other things, the use of its products results in injury. The Company maintains insurance against product liability claims with respect to the products it manufactures. With respect to the retail and direct marketing distribution of products produced by others, the Company's principal form of insurance consists of arrangements with each of its suppliers of those products to name the Company as beneficiary on each of such vendor's product liability insurance policies. The Company does not buy products from suppliers who do not maintain such coverage.

EMPLOYEES

As of December 31, 2007, the Company employed 245 full-time and contracted employees, of whom 136 were engaged in manufacturing, warehouse management, and shipping, and 109 in marketing, administrative, call center and corporate support functions. None of the employees are subject to a collective bargaining agreement with the Company.

ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS

The following risk factors should be considered when reading this Annual Report on Form 10-K. If any of the events described below occurs, the Company’s financial condition and operating results could be adversely affected.

Much of our growth and future profitability depends on the effectiveness of our advertising spent in the Direct to consumer channel.

Our marketing expenditures may not result in increased revenue or generate sufficient awareness of the program or the brand to the consumer. We may not be able to manage our advertising spend in a cost effective manner thereby increasing the cost to acquire a new customer to an elevated level that will decrease profits.

We may be subject to health related claims from our customers

A customer that suffers health problems may allege that the Medifast program contributed to the ailment. The Company is not currently the subject of any such claims; however, we would defend ourselves vigorously against such accusations. Regardless of the ultimate outcome, defending against such claims would be costly and could adversely affect our results of operations.

A competitor or new entrant into the market may develop a product and program similar to ours

Many of our competitors are significantly larger than us and have more financial resources to develop new products and programs. Our business could be affected if one of our competitors or a new entrant to the market develops similar products and programs through similar marketing channels. This could result in lower sales as well as pricing competition which could adversely affect the Company’s results from operations.

New fad diets or pharmaceutical solutions could put us at a competitive disadvantage

The weight loss industry is subject to fad diets. The Atkins craze hit the U.S. several years ago and had an impact on many weight loss companies. Another fad diet could sweep the nation or consumer preferences could change. Our failure to adapt or respond quickly enough to these changes could have an adverse affect on our results of operations. In addition, pharmaceutical companies are constantly trying to develop safe, effective, drugs that lead to weight loss. If successful, many dieters could perceive this to be easier than the Medifast program and this would put us at a competitive disadvantage.

Our ability to compete could be negatively affected in the event we fail to protect our brand names, trademarks or other intellectual property

Because our business relies heavily on direct to consumer models, brand awareness is an important factor in our sales strategy. Failure to protect our brand or maintain an image of good standing with the public could result in a negative effect on our operations. Additionally, failure to protect our intellectual property could result in the arrival of a similar competitor which could reduce our competitive edge or decrease our market share.

The business may grow too quickly for the current infrastructure to handle

If our advertising is extremely successful and our Take Shape for Life relationship marketing division sees a large uptick in recruitment we may be unable to handle the growth from an operational perspective. Increasing demands on our infrastructure could cause long hold times in the call center as well as delays on our website. In addition, there could be delays in order processing, packaging and shipping. We could run out of a majority of our inventory if growth exceeded our production capacity. If these difficulties are encountered in a period of hyper-growth then our operating results could suffer.

Any deficiencies or shortcomings in our information technology could prevent an efficient execution of routine business procedures

We rely heavily on our IT infrastructure to support major business components. Any disruption to the integrity of this support structure including but not limited to; software, telecommunications, Electronic Resource Platform, or the Information Technology architecture as a whole could severely limit our ability to provide customers and vendors with adequate service and operating responses. In addition, our financial reporting is directly correlated with our company-wide software Microsoft Navision 4.0. Any compromise in the veracity of this system could severely alter the accuracy of our tracking, volumes, and general reporting including financial statements.

A disruption in the supply of raw materials or the inability of third party manufacturing for certain products could affect operating results

We rely heavily on our vendors to provide quality raw materials for us to utilize in our on site manufacturing processes. Any disruption in the availability of these materials could potentially interrupt our ability to provide certain products to customers in a timely manner. Also certain products are currently manufactured through a third party. The availability of these products is prone to fluctuation dependent on the manufacturer’s ability to secure and produce a quality product that satisfies our satisfaction standards.

Our stock price may experience volatility due to fluctuations in our operating results

Our stock price is subject to fluctuations in response to our operating results, a competitor’s operating results, or our ability to meet stock analysts forecasts and our yearly revenue and EPS guidance. In addition, general trends in the weight-loss industry as a whole can have an affect on our stock price. These factors may have an adverse affect on the market price of our stock and cause it to fluctuate significantly.

We may be subject to claims that our employees are unqualified to provide weight loss counseling

Our Medifast Weight Control center division provides medical assessments and counseling to our customers. We may be subject to claims that our employees lack the proper training and qualifications to provide proper advice regarding weight loss. We could be subject to claims if an employee in one of our clinics gives inappropriate weight loss advice that results in health problems. Such claims could result in damage to our reputation and could have an affect on our operating results.

Negative publicity in the weight loss industry could adversely affect our business

If the press were to come out with negative media about low-calorie diets, meal replacements, or soy protein this could harm our business. Even if not directed at Medifast, this perception could be instilled in our target market and cause harm to our operating results.

The loss of key personnel could adversely affect our ability to operate and result in a negative financial condition

Certain members of our Company oversee integral components of our Company. Although we do not anticipate the departure of any key employees including but not limited to the executive management team, we cannot guarantee their tenure indefinitely in the future.

Our results of operations may decline as a result of a downturn in general economic conditions or consumer confidence

Our results of operations are highly dependent on product sales and program fees. A downturn in general economic conditions or consumer confidence and spending in any of our major markets could result in people curtailing their discretionary spending, which, in turn, could lead to a decrease in product sales in our Medifast Direct and Take Shape for Life divisions and a decrease in product and program fees at our Medifast Weight Control Centers and Internet product subscriptions. Any such reduction would adversely affect our results of operations.

Our Business is subject to regulatory and legislative restrictions

A number of laws and regulations govern our production, operation, and advertising. The FTC and certain states regulate advertising, disclosures to consumers, privacy, consumer pricing or billing arrangements, and other consumer matters. Our direct selling distribution channel is subject to risk of interpretation of certain laws pertaining to the prevention of “pyramid” or “chain sale” schemes. Although we believe we are in full compliance, should the governing body alter or enforce the law in an unanticipated way, there may be a negative result on the company’s operations. The Company’s financial reporting is subject to various laws and regulations as well, specifically, the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 and the SEC. These requirements demand the Company disclose certain information and maintain specific controls to ensure fair and legal accounting practices as outlined therein. The Company has taken substantial measures to ensure compliance through routine internal and external audits. Failure to correct any flaws in internal controls may constitute a public notification of weakness and could have an adverse effect on our stock price. Additionally, the Company is required to maintain a position of good standing in regards to taxation on both a Federal and State level. Failure to comply with federal and state regulations could result in additional taxes, fines, or interest due that could financially strain the company. Future laws and regulations could be unforeseen and potentially have a material negative impact on the Company. Failure to comply with any regulations of current or future authoritative entities could have a detrimental effect on the Company’s financial standing or operating results

ITEM 3. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS.

Leonard Z. Sotomeyer on December 30, 2003 filed an action in the Supreme Court of the State of New York, County of New York, against his former business partner, David Scheffler, and T-1 Holdings, LLC, and included Medifast, Inc., formerly Heathrite, Inc., as a Defendant, Case 604076-03, seeking monetary damages for failure of his former business partner to compensate him under several consulting agreements with Medifast, Inc. made with H-T Capital, Inc. and derivatively on behalf of T-1 Holdings, LLC. The Court dismissed on Defendants’ motions Sotomeyer’s complaint in its entirety by Order of September 30, 2004. Following an appeal, the Appellate Division, First Department, reinstated the first and second causes of action while affirming the dismissal of Plaintiff’s remaining derivative claims by its decision April 13, 2006. The matter is now, again, before the New York Supreme Court for the specific purpose of litigating plaintiff’s first and second causes of action only. Medifast has denied any wrongdoing and discovery is ongoing. Medifast believes it continues to have a meritorious defense to the two remaining counts and that any decision rendered would not materially impact the ongoing operations of Medifast, Inc.

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

FORWARD LOOKING STATEMENTS

This document contains forward-looking statements which may involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors that may cause Medifast, Inc. actual results and performance in future periods to be materially different from any future results or performance suggested by these statements. Medifast, Inc. cautions investors not to place undue reliance on forward-looking statements, which speak only to management's expectations on this date.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

Our consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. Our significant accounting policies are described in Note 2 of the consolidated financial statements.

The preparation of these financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Management develops, and changes periodically, these estimates and assumptions based on historical experience and on various other factors that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions. Management considers the following accounting estimates to be the most critical in preparing our consolidated financial statements. These critical accounting estimates have been discussed with our audit committee.

Revenue Recognition. Revenue is recognized net of discounts, rebates, promotional adjustments, price adjustments, returns and other potential adjustments upon shipment and passing of risk to the customer and when estimates of are reasonably determinable, collection is reasonably assured and the Company has no further performance obligations.

Impairment of Fixed Assets and Intangible Assets. We continually assess the impairment of long-lived assets whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value of the assets may not be recoverable. Judgments regarding the existence of impairment indicators are based on legal factors, market conditions and our operating performance. Future events could cause us to conclude that impairment indicators exist and the carrying values of fixed and intangible assets may be impaired. Any resulting impairment loss would be limited to the value of net fixed and intangible assets.

Income Taxes. In the preparation of consolidated financial statements, the Company estimates income taxes based on diverse legislative and regulatory structures that exist in jurisdictions where the company conducts business. Deferred income tax assets and liabilities represent tax benefits or obligations that arise from temporary differences due to differing treatment of certain items for accounting and income tax purposes. The Company evaluates deferred tax assets each period to ensure that estimated future taxable income will be sufficient in character amount and timing to result in their recovery. A valuation allowance is established when management determines that it is more likely than not that a deferred tax asset will not be realized to reduce the assets to their realizable value. Considerable judgments are required in establishing deferred tax valuation allowances and in assessing probable exposures related to tax matters. The Company’s tax returns are subject to audit and local taxing authorities that could challenge the company’s tax positions. The Company believes it records and/or discloses such potential tax liabilities as appropriate and has reasonably estimated its income tax liabilities and recoverable tax assets.

Allowance for doubtful accounts. In determining the adequacy of the allowance for doubtful accounts, we consider a number of factors including the aging of the receivable portfolio, customer payment trends, and financial condition of the customer, industry conditions and overall credibility of the customer. Actual amounts could differ significantly from our estimates.

CONSOLIDATED RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

2007 COMPARISON WITH 2006

OPERATING

Revenue: Revenue increased to $83.8 million in 2007 as compared to $74.1 million in 2006, an increase of $9.7 million or 13%. The direct marketing sales channel accounted for 56% of total revenue, Take Shape for Life 33%, doctors 5%, and brick and mortar clinics 6%. The direct marketing sales channel, which is fueled primarily by consumer advertising, increased revenues by approximately 3% year-over year. Take Shape for Life sales, which are fueled by person-to-person recruiting and support increased by 23% year-over-year. The Company’s doctor’s sales increased by 8% compared to 2006. The Company’s clinic division which began operating under the Medifast Weight Control Center name in late 2006, increased sales by 37% as compared to 2006.

The Take Shape for Life division grew 23% year-over-year. This growth can largely be attributed to the tools and training that led to an increase in the ability of the division to both promote growth in recruiting of health coaches, as well as better supporting this growth as it occurs. This continued investment proved to be a large part of the current growth trends in Take Shape for Life sales, as well as the number of active health coaches. The number of active health coaches grew to 1,850 at the end of the fourth quarter 2007 compared to 1,200 at the same time period in 2006, an increase of 54%. This recent growth in health coaches was recently observed in July of 2007, with over 80% attendance growth at the 2007 National Convention compared to the attendance at the 2006 Convention. The company believes that the growth in health coach activity is a positive trend that should continue, and will lead to significant revenue growth in the near future

The Medifast Weight Control Centers, which represent approximately 6% of the Company’s overall revenues, are currently operating in 11 locations in Dallas and Orlando. In 2007, the Company experienced revenue growth of 37% versus the same time period last year. The average monthly revenue per clinic also witnessed significant growth of 64%, averaging $36,000 per clinic in 2007 as compared to $22,000 in 2006. In the expanding Dallas, TX market, the average monthly revenue per clinic is approximately $50,000. In the estimated $40 billion weight loss and health living industry, the brick and mortar clinic model has always made up a significant portion of overall sales. Medifast has incorporated this model with the creation of the Medifast Weight Control Centers. The recent growth in this division has proven that the model is in high demand from a select portion of the weight loss consumers. The Company believes that with the recent industry launches of over-the-counter and anticipated launches of prescription appetite suppressant medications that this model will continue to grow. Therefore, throughout 2007, the Company invested in the infrastructure of its clinic model. The major aspects of the investment in this division included an expanded executive team, the creation of a point of sale system, a robust customer data tracking system, finalizing the franchise opportunity documentation, and the beginning stages of expansion into several new locations. The Company believes this business will be a major driver of revenues and profits for the Medifast business as it continues to expand. The Company plans to continue the expansion of the Medifast Weight Control Centers with both additional corporate locations as well as offering the model through a franchise opportunity. The Company is opening four additional corporately owned clinics in the Houston, TX market by the end of the first quarter of 2008. Also, on February 18, 2008, the Company announced that it has sold its first franchise of Medifast Weight Control Centers. The Company sold the rights to open four clinics in the Greater Baltimore Metropolitan Area. The franchisee also has the rights to open four additional Medifast Weight Control Centers in the Baltimore area over the next two years, bringing the total to eight locations.

Overall, selling, general and administrative expenses increased by $8.1 million as compared to 2006. The majority of the increase was due to investments in the Company’s future advertising campaigns, along with the necessary infrastructure support tools to allow the future campaigns to improve in effectiveness. Advertising expense for 2007 was approximately $18.4 million compared to approximately $14.3 million for the same period last year, an increase of $4.1 million. In the prior year, the Company benefited from a substantial editorial placement in a major consumer publication at no cost to the Company. During 2007, the Company has invested in multiple celebrity endorsement contracts as well as increased public relations expense to focus on increasing brand awareness that will benefit our future advertising campaigns. Salaries and benefits increased by approximately $1,500,000 in 2007 as the Company hired additional expertise in critical areas in order to assist in future growth and meet regulatory needs. This primarily includes IT, nutrition and product development, marketing, Medifast Weight Control Centers, and Take Shape for Life. Take Shape for Life commission expense, which is completely variable based upon revenue, increased by approximately $2,400,000. Communication expense which includes outsourced call centers decreased by $50,000. The Company has spent a significant amount of time and materials in 2007 building the future call center infrastructure with related technology and personnel. This investment will allow the call center to increase the percentage of advertising calls to be handled in-house. It is believed that this initiative will amount to significant savings and improved closing rates in the future. The reduction in outsourced call center expenses will continue in stages throughout 2008. Other expenses increased by $550,000, which included items such as depreciation, amortization, credit card processing fees, charitable contributions, and property taxes. Stock compensation expense increased by $192,000 as compared to 2006 as stock awards vest over 5 and 6 year terms for executives. These increases were offset by an approximately $250,000 decrease in office expense and the absence of a $323,000 loss resulting from the sale of the Consumer Choice Systems division in the first quarter of 2006.

Costs and Expenses: Cost of revenue increased $3.2 million to $21.5 million in 2007 from $18.2 million in 2006. As a percentage of sales, gross margin remained at approximately 75% in 2007 and 2006.

Other Income/Expense: Other income/expense decreased from $82,000 in other income in 2006 to $172,000 in other expense at December 31, 2007. Other income/expense consists of interest expense on debt, gains on the sale of equity investments, interest payments received on the CCS note receivable, and overpayments of taxes. In 2007, the Company also realized other income when it exercised a stock warrant from a former business partner, and realized a loss on disposal of assets relating to the closing of three Medifast Weight Control Centers.

Income taxes: In 2007, we recorded $1,706,000 in income tax expense, which represents an annual effective rate of 30.8%. In 2006, we recorded income tax expense of $2,307,000 which reflected an estimated annual effective tax rate of 30.9%. The Company anticipates a tax rate of approximately 32-34% in 2008.

Net income: Net income was $3.8 million in 2007 as compared to $5.2 million in 2006, which reflected a decrease of $1.4 million or 26%. The decrease was directly related to the initiatives of the Company to create its new advertising campaign and improve future capabilities to increase advertising effectiveness. Additionally, the Company did not have the benefit of the no cost editorial publication that occurred in the first quarter of 2006 that led to significant profits.

2007 vs. 2006

Medifast Segment: The Medifast reporting segment consists of the sales of Medifast Direct, Take Shape for Life, and Doctors and Clinics. As this represents the majority of our business this is referenced to the “Consolidated Results of Operations” management discussion for 2007 vs. 2006 above.

All Other Segment: The All Other reporting segment consists of the sales from Hi-Energy and Medifast Weight Control Centers. Sales increased by $903,000 year-over year as a result of an increase in Medifast Weight Control Centers sales of $1,013,000. Sales to Hi-Energy licensees decreased by $110,000 as fewer Hi-Energy licensee clinics remain in operation as clinics convert to Medifast Weight Control Centers. The increase in Medifast Weight Control Center’s sales was due to a renewed focus on the expansion of the corporate clinics, spending increases for advertising, increased advertising effectiveness, improved closing rates on walk-in sales, as well as the hiring of more experienced clinic operators to manage the clinics. There were 10 clinics open at the end of 2007 as compared to 12 at the end of 2006.

2006 vs. 2005

All Other Segment: The All Other reporting segment consists of the sales from Hi-Energy and Medifast Weight Control Centers. Sales increased by $564,000 year-over year as a result of an increase in Hi-Energy and Medifast Weight Control Centers sales of $1,464,000. This was offset by a decrease in Consumer Choice Systems sales of $900,000 as the division was sold in January of 2006. The increase in the Medifast Weight Control Center’s sales were due to spending increases for advertising, increased advertising effectiveness, improved closing rates on walk-in sales, as well as the hiring of more experienced clinic operators to manage the clinics. In addition, new programs were developed that extended the lifetime value of each customer.

All Other Segment: The All Other reporting segment consists of the losses of Hi-Energy, Medifast Weight Control Centers, and corporate expenses related to the parent company operations. Year-over-year, the loss in the All Other segment increased by $1,148,000. Corporate expenses increased by $401,000, as a result of increased fees due to increased reporting requirements for the Company as a whole. These fees include, but are not limited to auditors’ fees, attorneys’ fees, board of director expenses, investor relations, corporate consulting, education and training, and corporate outings. Hi-Energy and Medifast Weight Control Center expenses increased by $747,000 due to increased focus on opening new Medifast Weight Control clinics, hiring of experienced personnel, increased advertising and developing the Franchise model. See footnote 17, “Business Segments” for a detailed breakout of expenses.

2006 vs. 2005

Medifast Segment: The Medifast reporting segment consists of the profits of Medifast Direct, Take Shape for Life, and Doctors. As this represents the majority of our business this is referenced to the “Consolidated Results of Operations” management discussion for 2006 vs. 2005 above. See footnote 17, “Business Segments” for a detailed breakout of expenses

All Other Segment: The All Other reporting segment consists of the losses of Hi-Energy and Medifast Weight Control Centers, Consumers Choice Systems, and corporate expenses related to the parent company operations. Year-over-year, the loss in the All Other segment improved by $545,000. The sale of Consumer Choice Systems in January of 2007 had the largest impact as it led to a $489,000 increase in income as compared to 2005. In addition, decreased selling, general, and administrative expenses of the corporate operation, which includes auditor’s fees, attorneys’ fees, board of director expenses, investor relations, corporate consulting, education and training, and corporate outings, led to improvement of $186,000. The Hi-Energy and Medifast Weight Control Centers showed an immaterial improvement year-over-year due to expenses associated with expanding the clinic model. See footnote 17, “Business Segments” for a detailed breakout of expenses.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

The Company had stockholders’ equity of $32,420,000 and working capital of $10,395,000 on December 31, 2007 compared with $27,916,000 and $9,612,000 at December 31, 2006, respectively. The $4.5 million net increase in stockholder’s equity reflects $3.8 million in 2007 profits as well as equity transactions as outlined in the “Consolidated Statement of Changes in Stockholders’ Equity and accumulated other comprehensive income (loss).” The Company’s cash and cash equivalents position increased from $1.1 million at December 31, 2006 to $2.2 at December 31, 2006. The increase is due to improved sales in fourth quarter 2007 versus 2006 as well as timing of accounts payable.

In September 2007, Medifast, Inc.’s wholly owned subsidiary Jason Pharmaceuticals, Inc. increased its Secured Line of Credit from $5 million to $7.5 million and moved the line of credit from Mercantile Safe-Deposit and Trust to Merrill Lynch. The line of credit is at LIBOR plus 1.3 percent. The increased line may be used to finance fixed assets, advertising, and inventory of Medifast, Inc. The Company currently has no off-balance sheet arrangements.

In the year ended December 31, 2007, the Company generated cash flow of $7,954,000 from operations, primarily attributable to higher operating income. This was offset by net changes in operating assets and liabilities that decreased cash flow by $1,289,000. The largest use of cash was for the purchase of inventory. The Company builds up inventory each year in the fourth quarter in order to prepare for “diet season” in the first quarter of 2008. Additional uses of cash included the funding of the Chairman of the Boards deferred compensation plan outlined in Note 1 of the financial statements as well as prepaid advertising for January of 2008. This was offset by an increase in accounts payable and income taxes payable of $1,367,000 and $57,000, respectively.

In the year ended December 31, 2007, net cash used in investing activities was $7,969,000, which primarily consisted of the purchase of intangible assets and purchases of property and equipment. The increase in intangible assets relates to the acquisition of customer lists in 2007 which are used in direct response marketing campaigns. These campaigns consist of postcards and e-mails that are sent to customers with a special offer or discount coupon to order on our website, choosemedifast.com, or through our in-house call center. In the fourth quarter of 2007, the Company leased an additional Xerox Igen3 printer in order to increase its direct mailing capabilities. Large customer mailings will be sent out bi-weekly throughout 2008. The increase in property and equipment relates to the building of a large amount of infrastructure in 2007. This included the purchase of a state of the art Avaya phone system, additional enhancements to our Enterprise Resource Planning System, IT server and networking upgrades, the build out of our new Medifast Weight Control Centers as well as leasehold improvements to our distribution facility in Ridgely, MD.

In the year ended December 31, 2007, financing activities generated $1,125,000 in cash flow, representing principal repayments of long-term debt, and the purchase of 25,000 shares of treasury stock. This was offset by an increase in the line of credit, decrease in the CCS note receivable, and issuances of warrants and options exercised with cash.

In pursuing its business strategy, the Company may require additional cash for operating and investing activities. The Company expects future cash requirements, if any, to be funded from operating cash flow and cash flow from financing activities.

There are no current plans or discussions in process relating to any material acquisition that is probable in the foreseeable future.

2006 COMPARISON WITH 2005

OPERATING

Revenue: Revenue increased to $74.1 million in 2006 as compared to $40.1 million in 2005, an increase of $34 million or 85%. The direct marketing sales channel accounted for 60% of total revenue, Take Shape for Life 30%, doctors 5%, and clinics 5%. The direct marketing sales channel, which is fueled primarily by consumer advertising, increased revenues by approximately 142% year-over year. Take Shape for Life sales, which are fueled by person-to-person recruiting and support increased by 46% year-over-year.

The growth in revenue is primarily the result of an increased advertising campaign in 2006, which fueled growth across the Company’s multiple distribution channels. The Company has expanded into additional print media and national cable and network TV spots. The Company also continues to expand its presence on the web through multiple marketing initiatives. Additionally, the Take Shape for Life network continues to grow as the sales network expands into additional states and increased penetration in existing states. The Company continues to create new marketing tools and training materials for health advisors to help increase the recruitment of both active Health Advisors as well as the lifetime value of their customers.

Due to the significant growth in the first half of 2006, Medifast, Inc. began exploring third party over-sourcing capabilities in the call center. The Company began using an outsourced call center for overflow call volume in late April. The outsourced call center allowed the company to prepare in the fourth quarter of 2006 for anticipated sales growth in the first quarter of 2007 so that a shortage of call center representatives would not be experienced as it was in the first quarter of 2006. The Company is currently exploring bringing all call center functions in-house. Capital expenditure for a new phone system would be necessary; however, the return on investment would be under a year. The Company has also invested in increasing production capacity with the purchase of two additional manufacturing lines and a larger capacity blender. The lines will significantly improve the Company's production capability, while also improving its overall efficiencies.

In addition, the Company implemented a new Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) system in December of 2006. The system adds critical functions and controls necessary for Sarbanes Oxley compliance and significantly increases the Company’s ability to track and forecast inventory. The system provides enhanced reporting on all business units and enables the Company to handle significantly increased sales volume. The Company believes that these capabilities will provide the Company with the scalability necessary to seamlessly handle increased demands as the business continues to grow. The Company is exploring the ownership of its call center, which would require a new phone system. The Company expects that this would be the last large capital expense expected. The Company now has the manufacturing, distribution, and IT capability to handle approximately $250 - $300 million in sales volume

Costs and Expenses: Cost of revenue increased $8.1 million to $18.2 million in 2006 from $10.2 million in 2005. As a percentage of sales, gross margin increased to 75.4% in 2006 as compared to 74.7% in 2005. The slight increase in gross margin is primarily due to decreased raw material costs as a result of increased volume discounts. The new machines are expected to add to efficiency in the future.

Advertising expense in 2006 was approximately $14.3 million as compared to approximately $3.8 million in 2005, an increase of $10.5 million. The increased marketing was spent primarily for TV advertising, print, and web media. The Company continues to test, analyze and adapt the advertising message and placements on TV, print and web media to achieve the lowest cost to acquire new customers. This testing will allow the company to spend our advertising dollars most effectively as we plan on increasing our advertising budget for the year of 2007. The branding effect of advertising has proven to have impact in all channels of the business driving customers to the web and call center, leads to Take Shape for Life health advisors, patients to local Medifast practitioners and significant walk-ins to Medifast Weight Control Center clinics.

Aside from the increase in advertising expense, selling, general, and administrative expenses increased by approximately $11.5 million. A few major expense categories attributed to the majority of the increase in expenses and were all directly related to our dramatic sales growth in 2006. Salaries and benefits increased by $3 million to support the 85% increase in sales. In addition, Take Shape for Life sales increased by 46% year-over-year which led to increased commission expense of $3.4 million that is completely variable in relation to sales growth. Another variable expense that rose by $800,000 with our sales growth was credit card processing fees. Currently, over 95% of the Company’s transactions are processed via credit card. Additional increases included an increase in office expense of $800,000, an increase in operating costs of $300,000, and an increase in sales expense of $400,000. Other expenses increased by $1.8 million, which included items such as depreciation, amortization, stock compensation expense, charitable contributions, and property taxes. To handle increased call volume, the Company began using an outsourced call center in April of 2006 which led to $1 million in additional expense as compared to prior year.

Other Income/Expense: Other income increased from $15,000 in 2005 to $276,000 in 2006 primarily as a result of increased gains on the sale of equity investments, interest payments received on the CCS note receivable, and state income tax refunds related to 2005 overpayments.

On January 17, 2006 the assets of Consumer Choice Systems, a division of Medifast, Inc., were sold to a former Board member. The promissory note calls for monthly principal only payments over a 10-year term. Therefore, when imputing an interest rate on the loan, a $323,000 loss had to be realized due to the difference in the present value of the note receivable compared to the amount realizable over 10-years. This is a one-time loss that will not affect any future periods. The loss is recouped monthly in interest income over a period of 120 months or upon payment of the note in its entirety.

Income taxes: In the third quarter of 2006, the Company had a $1 million federal tax refund receivable. A portion of this refund was factored into the Company’s income tax provision, which lowered the estimated tax rate for 2006. In 2006, the Company recorded $2.3 million in income tax expense, which represents an annual effective rate of 31%. In 2005, we recorded income tax expense of $1 million, which reflected an estimated annual effective tax rate of 29.4 %. The Company anticipates a tax rate of approximately 36-39% in 2007. The benefit the Company received in 2006 from a large income tax refund receivable as a result a cost segregation study performed on our fixed assets is not expected to benefit future periods.

Net income: Net income increased to $5.2 million in 2006 as compared to $2.1 million in 2005, which reflected an increase of 144% or $3.1 million. The increase in net income is due to an increase in sales offset by increased selling, general, and administrative expenses, that primarily consist of increased advertising, commissions paid to Take Shape for Life health advisors, outsourced call center reps, and new employees.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

The Company had stockholders’ equity of $27,916,000 and working capital of $9,612,000 on December 31, 2006 compared with $21,697,000 and $9,996,000 at December 31, 2005, respectively. The $6.2 million net increase in stockholder’s equity reflects the increased profitability of the Company. The Company’s cash and cash equivalents position decreased from $1.5 million at December 31, 2005 to $1.1 at December 31, 2006. The decrease is due to increased cash outlays for infrastructure to include the new ERP system and new production lines and blender, as well as inventory build-up for the first quarter of 2007. In addition, prepaid advertisements for January and payments to our third party call center were uses of cash. On December 31, 2006 the Company’s current ratio was 3 to 1.

In October 2006, Medifast, Inc.’s wholly owned subsidiary Jason Pharmaceuticals, Inc. renewed its $5,000,000 Secured Line of Credit from Mercantile Safe-Deposit and Trust of Baltimore, Maryland. The line of credit is at LIBOR plus 1.3 percent. The increased line may be used to finance equipment, advertising, inventory, and receivables of Medifast, Inc. The Company currently has no off-balance sheet arrangements.

In the year ended December 31, 2006, the Company generated cash flow of $5,845,000 from operations, primarily attributable to higher operating income. This was offset by net changes in operating assets and liabilities that decreased cash flow by $3,650,000. The largest use of cash was for the purchase of inventory. We increased inventory in the fourth quarter in order to meet anticipated demand in the first quarter of 2007. This was offset by an increase in accounts payable and a reduction in our accounts receivable and prepaid balances.

In the year ended December 31, 2006, net cash used in investing activities was $6,747,000, which primarily consisted of the purchase of intangible assets and purchases of property and equipment. The increase in intangible assets relates to the acquisition of customer lists in 2006 which are used in direct response marketing campaigns. These campaigns consist of postcards and e-mails that are sent to customers with a special offer or discount coupon to order on our website, choosemedifast.com, or through our call center. In addition, the Company acquired trademarks in preparation for future international ventures as well as incurred fees in developing patents on our diabetic lines. The increase in property and equipment relates to the building of a large amount of infrastructure in 2006. This included a new Enterprise Resource Planning system, two new state of the art manufacturing lines, larger capacity blender and improvements at our distribution facility as well as the build out of our new Medifast Weight Control Centers.

In the year ended December 31, 2006, financing activities generated $503,000 in cash flow, representing principal repayments of long-term debt, and the purchase of 25,000 shares of treasury stock. This was offset by an increase in the line of credit and issuances of warrants and options exercised with cash.

There are no current plans or discussions in process relating to any material acquisition that is probable in the foreseeable future.

SEASONALITY

The Company's weight management products and programs have historically been subject to seasonality. Traditionally the holiday season in November/December of each year is considered poor for diet control products and services. January and February generally show increases in sales, as these months are considered the commencement of the “diet season.” The Company did not experience the same degree of seasonality in 2007. This is largely due to the increase in the consumer’s awareness of the overall health and nutritional benefits accompanied with the use of the Company’s product line. As consumers continue to increase their association of nutritional weight loss programs with overall health, seasonality will continue to decrease.

INFLATION

To date, inflation has not had a material effect on the Company's business.

ITEM 7A. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

Market risk is the potential loss arising from adverse changes in market rates and prices, such as interest rates and a decline in the stock market. The Company does not enter into derivatives, foreign exchange transactions or other financial instruments for trading or speculative purposes. The Company has limited exposure to market risks related to changes in interest rates. The principal risks of loss arising from adverse changes in market rates and prices to which the Company and its subsidiaries are exposed relate to interest rates on debt. Since nearly all of our debt is variable rate based, any changes in market interest rates will cause an equal change in our net interest expense. At December 31, 2007, there was $4.8 million of variable interest loans outstanding which is subject to interest rate risk. Interest rates on our variable rate loans ranged from 5.93% to 7.73% for the year ended December 31, 2007. Each 100 basis point increase in the bank’s LIBOR rates relative to these borrowings would impact interest expense by $48,000 over a 12-month period.

ITEM 8. FINANCIAL STATEMENTS.

The information required by this item is set forth on pages 44 to 66 hereto and incorporated by reference herein.

ITEM 9. CHANGES AND DISAGREEMENTS WITH ACCOUNTANTS ON ACCOUNTING AND FINANCIAL DISCLOSURES.

There were no disagreements with the Company’s independent auditors, regarding accounting and financial disclosures for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2007.

ITEM 9A. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Disclosure Controls and Procedures

The Securities and Exchange Commission defines the term “disclosure controls and procedures” to mean a company’s controls and other procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the reports that it files or submits under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms. Based on the evaluation of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures by our management, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer, as of the end of the period covered by this report, our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures at the end of the period covered by this report were effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the reports that we file or submit under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is (i) recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the Commission’s rules and forms, and (ii) accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding disclosure.

Management’s Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting

Management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over the Company’s financial reporting. Internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of the Company’s financial reporting and the preparation of consolidated financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. Internal control over financial reporting includes policies and procedures that: (i) pertain to maintaining records that, in a reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect our transactions and dispositions of our assets; (ii) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary for preparation of our financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles and that the receipts and expenditures of the Company are being made in accordance with management and board of director authorization; and (iii) provide reasonable assurance that unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of the Company’s assets that could have a material effect on our financial statements would be prevented or detected on a timely basis.

Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

Management evaluated the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting based on the framework in Internal Control – Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (“COSO”). Based upon that evaluation, management concluded that the Company’s internal control over financial reporting was effective as of December 31, 2007.

The Company’s independent registered public accounting firm, Bagell, Josephs, Levine, and Co., LLC, has audited the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Their report on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting appears on page 26.

Changes in our Internal Control

There was no change in our internal control over financial reporting during the quarter ended December 31, 2007 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Limitations on the Effectiveness of Controls

Our management, including our CEO and CFO, does not expect that our disclosure controls or our internal controls will prevent or detect all errors and all fraud. A control system, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the control system’s objectives will be met. Further, the design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs. Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within General Motors have been detected. These inherent limitations include the realities that judgments in decision-making can be faulty, and that breakdowns can occur because of simple error or mistake. Controls can also be circumvented by the individual acts of some persons, by collusion of two or more people, or by management override of the controls. The design of any system of controls is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions. Over time, controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions or deterioration in the degree of compliance with associated policies or procedures. Because of the inherent limitations in a cost-effective control system, misstatements due to error or fraud may occur and not be detected.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

The Board of Directors and Stockholders of Medifast, Inc.

Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether effective internal control over financial reporting was maintained in all material respects. Our audit of internal control over financial reporting included obtaining an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, assessing the risk that a material weakness exists, and testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control based on the assessed risk. Our audit also included performing such other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

A company's internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. A company's internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (1) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the Company; (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the Company; and (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the Company's assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.

In our opinion, Medifast, Inc. and subsidiaries maintained, in all material respects, effective internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2007, based on criteria established in Internal Control—Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO).

We have also audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States), the consolidated balance sheets and the related consolidated statements of income, stockholders’ equity and accumulated other comprehensive income (loss), and cash flows of Medifast, Inc. and subsidiaries, and our report dated March 14, 2008 expressed an unqualified opinion.

ITEM 11. EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION.

COMPENSATION DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

Overview of Compensation Program

Our Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors has responsibility for establishing, implementing and continually monitoring adherence with the Company’s compensation philosophy. The Compensation Committee ensures that the total compensation paid to our named executive officers is fair, reasonable and competitive. Generally, the types of compensation and benefits provided to our named executive officers are similar to those provided to other officers and employees of the Company.

Throughout this discussion, the individuals who served as our CEO and CFO during Fiscal 2007, as well as the other individuals included in the Summary Compensation Table on page 34, are referred to as the “named executive officers.”

Objectives of Compensation Program

The main objective of our executive compensation program is to create a competitive total rewards package based on the attainment of short-term performance objectives and long-term strategic goals. Accordingly, our executive compensation program consists of the following three principal elements: base salary, cash bonus and equity grants in the form of stock options and restricted stock, with an emphasis on incentive compensation rather than base salary. Our executives are also eligible to participate in employee benefit and retirement plans offered by the Company, which currently include defined contribution, and 401(k) plans, and health care and other insurance programs. The benefit programs available to executives are the same as those available to all other eligible employees.

Decision-Making; Role of Executive Officers in Compensation Decisions

The Compensation Committee of our Board of Directors is comprised solely of non-affiliate independent Directors who meet the independence requirements of the NYSE. Our Compensation Committee makes all decisions regarding the compensation of our CEO, including establishing the performance goals and objectives for our CEO, evaluating our CEO’s performance in light of the goals and objectives that were set and determining and recommending to our Board the CEO’s compensation based on that evaluation.

Our CEO makes recommendations to our Compensation Committee for the compensation of all other named executive officers. Our Compensation Committee and Board may accept or adjust such recommendations as they determine in the best interests of the Company and its stockholders and has final approval over all such compensation decisions. To the extent not established by our Board of Directors, our Compensation Committee is also authorized to establish compensation and benefits for our Chairman and for new and existing non-affiliate independent Directors.

Our Chairman, CEO, and Vice President of Human Resources provide advice, analysis and recommendations to our Compensation Committee.

Elements of Executive Compensation

Our Compensation Committee also evaluates the achievement of corporate, individual and organizational objectives for each executive officer during the prior fiscal year. Each element of compensation is chosen in order to attract and retain the necessary executive talent, reward corporate performance and provide incentive for the attainment of long-term strategic goals. The allocation of each element of compensation is determined by our Compensation Committee for each executive based on the following factors:

•

Performance against corporate, individual and organizational objectives for the fiscal year;

•

Importance of particular skill sets and professional abilities to the achievement of long-term strategic goals; and

•

Contribution as a leader, corporate representative and member of the senior management team.

These elements support our overall compensation philosophy by creating a balanced focus on shorter-term corporate performance and the achievement of longer-term business goals and stockholder value. While we believe in structuring executive compensation plans that give our executives incentive to deliver certain objective elements of corporate financial performance over specified time periods, we do not believe in a purely mechanical approach. Instead, part of our executive compensation philosophy includes an element of reward for non-quantitative achievements demonstrated by our executives in the actions and decisions they have taken throughout the year. When establishing our executive compensation plans for a given year, it is not possible to foresee all of the challenges and demands that will be made of our executives, both as a management team and in their areas of individual responsibility. We believe that by rewarding the quality of our decision-making and leadership, in addition to the achievement of quantifiable results, we are building a management team capable of creating stockholder value over the longer-term, while remaining disciplined in delivering shorter-term financial results. Accordingly, there is no pre-established policy or target for the allocation between either cash and non-cash or short-term and long-term incentive compensation. Rather, the Compensation Committee reviews information provided by industry surveys and peer company data to determine appropriate level and mix of incentive compensation. Income from such incentive compensation is realized as a result of the performance of the Company and the individual, depending on the type of award, compared to established goals.

Base Salary

Our base salary determinations principally reflect the skills and performance levels of individual executives, the needs of the Company, and pay practices of comparable public companies. It is not our policy to pay our executive officers at the highest base salary level. Instead, we establish executive base salaries conservatively at or below a midpoint level relative to an appropriate set of peers. We believe this policy sets a prudent and fiscally responsible tone for the Company’s overall base salary compensation programs.

Target Bonus

Cash bonuses principally reflect the Company’s financial performance and achievement of corporate objectives established by our Board prior to the fiscal year. The executive bonus plan is designed to reward our executives for the achievement of shorter-term financial goals, predominantly revenue growth and profitability, with cash flow and other operating ratios also considered. The allocation of the bonus pool among the employees, including senior executives, is at the discretion of the Compensation Committee. The Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer and other senior executives discuss and jointly develop recommended bonus allocations among the staff within the various functional areas of the Company. In addition, the Chief Executive Officer prepares an allocation of bonus payments among the senior executive group. In consultation with the Chief Executive Officer, the Compensation Committee evaluates, adjusts and approves the amount and allocation of the bonus pool. In determining the cash bonus allocation among senior executives, the Compensation Committee and the Chief Executive Officer consider each executive’s a) contribution to current and long-term corporate goals, and b) value in the labor market.

Equity Compensation

Stock option and restricted stock awards principally reflect the responsibilities to be assumed by each executive in the upcoming fiscal year, the responsibilities of each executive in prior periods, the size of awards made to each executive in prior years relative to the Company’s overall performance, available stock for issuance under our Option Plan, and potential grants in future years. The Committee believes that stock option and restricted stock grants (1) align the interests of executives with long-term stockholder interests, (2) give executives a significant, long-term interest in the Company’s success, and (3) help retain key executives in a competitive market for executive talent. The Company does not plan on issuing stock options as part of compensation in 2008 and beyond.

Equity Ownership by Executives

We do not currently have a formal equity ownership requirement for our executives. However, we encourage our executives to own equity in the Company on a voluntary basis. All of our named executive officers own stock, restricted stock and vested and unvested stock options. We periodically review the vested and unvested equity holdings of our executives and evaluate whether these holdings sufficiently align the interests of our executives with the long-term interests of our stockholders. We may consider adopting equity ownership requirements in the future.

Deferred Compensation Plans

We maintain a non-qualified deferred compensation plan, effective September 10, 2003, for Senior Executive management. Currently, Bradley MacDonald is the only participant in the plan. Under the deferred compensation plan that became effective in 2003, executive officers of the Company, including the Named Executive Officers, may defer a portion of their salary and bonus (performance-based compensation) annually. A participant may elect to receive distributions of the accrued deferred compensation in a lump sum or in installments upon retirement

Each participating officer may request that the deferred amounts be allocated among several available investment options established and offered by the Company. These investment options provide market rates of return and are not subsidized by the Company. The benefit payable under the plan at any time to a participant following termination of employment is equal to the applicable deferred amounts, plus or minus any earnings or losses attributable to the investment of such deferred amounts. The amount of compensation in any given fiscal year that is deferred by each Named Executive Officer is included in the Summary Compensation Table under the column headings “Salary” or “Non-Equity Incentive Plan Compensation”, as appropriate.

The Company has established a trust for the benefit of participants in the deferred compensation plan. Pursuant to the terms of the trust, as soon as possible after any deferred amounts have been withheld from a plan participant, the Company will contribute such deferred amounts to the trust to be held for the benefit of the participant in accordance with the terms of the plan and the trust.

Retirement payouts under the plan upon an executive officer’s retirement from the Company are payable either in a lump-sum payment or in annual installments over a period of up to ten years. Upon death, disability or termination of employment, all amounts shall be paid in a lump-sum payment as soon as administratively feasible.

In 2007, the Company made a $100,000 contribution to Bradley MacDonald’s deferred compensation plan as a performance bonus.

Audit Committee Pre-Approval of Audit and Permissible Non-Audit Services of Independent Auditors

The Audit Committee pre-approves all audit and permissible non-audit services provided by the independent auditors. These services may include audit services, audit-related services, tax services and other services. The Audit Committee has adopted a policy for the pre-approval of services provided by the independent auditors.

Under the policy, pre-approval is generally provided for work associated with the following:

registration statements under the Securities Act of 1933 (for example, comfort letters or consents);

due diligence work for potential acquisitions or dispositions;

attest services not required by statute or regulation;

adoption of new accounting pronouncements or auditing and disclosure requirements and accounting or regulatory consultations;

internal control reviews and assistance with internal control reporting requirements;

review of information systems security and controls;

tax compliance, tax planning and related tax services, excluding any tax service prohibited by regulatory or other oversight authorities; expatriate and other individual tax services; and

Assistance and consultation on questions raised by regulatory agencies.

For each proposed service, the independent auditors are required to provide detailed back-up documentation at the time of approval to permit the Audit Committee to make a determination whether the provision of such services would impair the independent auditors’ independence.

The Audit Committee has approved in advance certain permitted services whose scope is routine across business units, including statutory or other financial audit work for non-U.S. subsidiaries that is not required for the 1934 Act audits.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

The Board of Directors and Stockholders of Medifast, Inc.

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Medifast, Inc. as of December 31, 2006 and 2007, and the related consolidated statements of income, stockholders’ equity and accumulated other comprehensive income (loss), and cash flows for each of the years in the three year period ended December 31, 2007. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of Medifast, Inc. at December 31, 2006 and 2007, and the consolidated results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the years in the three year period ended December 31, 2007, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.

We also have audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States), the effectiveness of Medifast, Inc. and subsidiaries internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2007, based on criteria established in Internal Control — Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO) and our report dated March 14, 2008 expressed an unqualified opinion.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

December 31, 2007, 2006, 2005

1. BACKGROUND

Nature of the Business

Medifast, Inc. (the "Company” or “Medifast”) is a Delaware corporation, incorporated in 1980. The Company’s operations are primarily conducted through five of its wholly owned subsidiaries, Jason Pharmaceuticals, Inc. ("Jason"), Take Shape for Life, Inc. (“TSFL”), Jason Enterprises, Inc., Jason Properties, LLC and Seven Crondall, LLC. The Company is engaged in the production, distribution, and sale of weight management and disease management products and other consumable health and diet products. Medifast, Inc.’s product lines include weight and disease management, and meal replacement products manufactured in a modern, FDA approved facility in Owings Mills, Maryland.

The Company is engaged in the manufacturing and distribution of Medifastâ branded and private label weight and disease management products. These products are sold through various channels of distribution, to include web, call center, independent health advisors, medical professionals, weight loss clinics, direct consumer marketing supported via the phone and the web. The processing, formulation, packaging, labeling and advertising of the Company’s products are subject to regulation by one or more federal agencies, including the Food and Drug Administration, the Federal Trade Commission, the Consumer Product Safety Commission, the United States Department of Agriculture, and the United States Environmental Protection Agency.

2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Significant accounting policies followed in the preparation of the consolidated financial statements are as follows:

Principles of Consolidation and Basis of Presentation

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries, Jason Pharmaceuticals, Inc., Take Shape For Life, Inc., Seven Crondall Associates, LLC, Jason Properties, LLC and Jason Enterprises, Inc. All inter-company accounts have been eliminated.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

For the purposes of the consolidated statements of cash flow, the Company considers all highly liquid debt instruments purchased with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents. At December 31, 2007, the Company had $1,224,000 in miscellaneous short-term investments through Merrill Lynch that are considered cash equivalents due to terms of maturity, and $971,000 in operating checking accounts.

At December 31, 2006, the Company had $979,000 in miscellaneous short-term investments through Merrill Lynch that are considered cash equivalents due to terms of maturity, and $106,000 in operating checking accounts.

Accounts Receivable and Allowance for Doubtful Accounts

Accounts receivable are recorded net of reserves for sales returns and allowances, and net of provisions for doubtful accounts. Allowances for sales returns and discounts are based on an analysis of historical trends, and allowances for doubtful accounts are based primarily on an analysis of aging accounts receivable balances and on the creditworthiness of the customer as determined by credit checks and analysis, as well as the customer’s payment history.

Inventory

Inventories consist principally of packaged meal replacements held in the Company’s warehouse. Inventory is stated at the lower of cost or market, utilizing the first-in, first-out method. The cost of finished goods includes the cost of raw materials, packaging supplies, direct and indirect labor and other indirect manufacturing costs. On a quarterly basis, management reviews inventory for unsalable or obsolete inventory. Obsolete or unsalable inventory write-offs have been immaterial to the financial statements as our products have useful lives ranging from 14-24 months.

Advertising

Advertising costs such as preparation, layout, design and production of advertising are deferred. They are expensed when the advertisement is first used, except for the costs of executory contracts, which are amortized as performance under the contract is received. Advertising costs deferred at December 31, 2007 and 2006, were $1,014,000 and $960,000 respectively. Advertising expense for the years ended December 31, 2007 and 2006 amounted to $18,400,000 and $14,300,000, respectively.

Property, Plant, and Equipment

Property, plant and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and amortization. The Company computes depreciation and amortization using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets acquired as follows:

Building and building improvements	39 years
Equipment and fixtures	3 - 15 years
Vehicles	5 years

The carrying amount of all long-lived assets is evaluated periodically to determine whether adjustment to the useful life or to the unamortized balance is warranted. Such evaluation is based principally on the expected utilization of the long-lived assets and the projected undiscounted cash flows of the operations in which the long-lived assets are used.

In accordance with SFAS No. 144, “Long-Lived Assets”, property, plant and equipment and other long-lived assets are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Recoverability of assets to be held and used is measured by a comparison of the carrying amount of an asset to estimated undiscounted future cash flows expected to be generated by the asset. If the carrying amount of an asset exceeds its estimated future cash flows, an impairment charge is recognized by the amount by which the carrying amount of the asset exceeds the fair value of the asset.

Income Taxes

The Company accounts for income taxes in accordance with Statements of Financial Accounting Standards No. 109, “Accounting for Income Taxes,” which requires an asset and liability approach to financial accounting and reporting for income taxes. Deferred income taxes and liabilities are computed annually for differences between the financial statement and the tax basis of assets and liabilities that will result in taxable or deductible amounts in the future based on enacted tax laws and rates applicable to the periods in which the differences are expected to affect taxable income. Valuation allowances are established when necessary to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized.

Earnings per Common Share

Basic earnings per share is calculated by dividing net profit attributable to common stockholders by the weighted average number of outstanding common shares during the year. Basic earnings per share exclude any dilutive effects of options, warrants and other stock-based compensation, which are included in diluted earnings per share.

Revenue Recognition

Revenue is recognized net of discounts, rebates, promotional adjustments, price adjustments, returns and other potential adjustments upon shipment and passing of risk to the customer and when estimates of are reasonably determinable, collection is reasonably assured and the Company has no further performance obligations.

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 reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The carrying amounts reported in the consolidated balance sheets for cash, certificates of deposit, accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued liabilities approximate fair value because of the immediate or short-term maturity of the financial instruments.

The Company believes that its indebtedness approximates fair value based on current yields for debt instruments with similar terms.

Concentration of Credit Risk

Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to credit risk consist of cash, certificates of deposit, investment securities and trade receivables. Cash, money markets and investments exceed the federal insurance coverage by $1,551,000 and $2,610,000 respectively. The Company securities at December 31, 2007 and 2006, include amounts deposited with multiple financial institutions markets its products primarily to medical professionals, clinics, and Internet medical sales and has no substantial concentrations of credit risk in its trade receivables.

As of December 31, 2007 the Company had three customers that individually represented over 10% of the accounts receivable and in the aggregate, approximately 70% of the accounts receivable. In 2006, the Company had two customers that individually represented over 10% of the accounts receivable and in the aggregate, approximately 12% of the accounts receivable.

Deferred Compensation Plans

We maintain a non-qualified deferred compensation plan for Senior Executive management. Currently, Bradley MacDonald is the only participant in the plan. Under the deferred compensation plan that became effective in 2003, executive officers of the Company may defer a portion of their salary and bonus (performance-based compensation) annually. A participant may elect to receive distributions of the accrued deferred compensation in a lump sum or in installments upon retirement

Each participating officer may request that the deferred amounts be allocated among several available investment options established and offered by the Company. These investment options provide market rates of return and are not subsidized by the Company. The benefit payable under the plan at any time to a participant following termination of employment is equal to the applicable deferred amounts, plus or minus any earnings or losses attributable to the investment of such deferred amounts. The Company has established a trust for the benefit of participants in the deferred compensation plan. Pursuant to the terms of the trust, as soon as possible after any deferred amounts have been withheld from a plan participant, the Company will contribute such deferred amounts to the trust to be held for the benefit of the participant in accordance with the terms of the plan and the trust.

Stock-Based Compensation

Effective January 1, 2006, the Company adopted the provisions of Financial Accounting Standards Board Statement of Financial Accounting Standard (“SFAS”) No. 123(R), “Share-Based Payments,” which establishes the accounting for employee stock-based awards. Under the provisions of SFAS No.123(R), stock-based compensation is measured at the grant date, based on the calculated fair value of the award, and is recognized as an expense over the requisite employee service period (generally the vesting period of the grant). The Company adopted SFAS No. 123(R) using the modified prospective method and, as a result, periods prior to December 31, 2005 have not been restated. The Company recognized stock-based compensation for awards issued under the Company’s stock option plans in other income/expenses included in the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations. Additionally, no modifications were made to outstanding stock options prior to the adoption of SFAS No. 123(R), and no cumulative adjustments were recorded in the Company’s financial statements.

Prior to December 31, 2005, the Company accounted for stock-based compensation in accordance with provisions of Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25 (“APB No. 25”), “Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees,” and related interpretations. Under APB No. 25, compensation cost was recognized based on the difference, if any, on the date of grant between the fair value of the Company’s stock and the amount an employee must pay to acquire the stock. The Company grants stock options at an exercise price equal to 100% of the market price on the date of grant. Accordingly, no compensation expense was recognized for the stock option grants in periods prior to the adoption of SFAS No. 123(R).

Unearned compensation represents shares issued to executives that will be vested over a 5-6 year period. These shares will be amortized over the vesting period in accordance with FASB 123(R). The expense related to the vesting of unearned compensation was $641,000 and $509,000 at December 31, 2007 and December 31, 2006, respectively. Expense related to vesting of options under FASB 123R was $100,000 and $40,000 at December 31, 2007 and December 31, 2006, respectively.

SFAS No. 123(R) requires disclosure of pro-forma information for periods prior to the adoption. The pro-forma disclosures are based on the fair value of awards at the grant date, amortized to expense over the service period. The following table illustrates the effect on net income and earnings per share as if the Company had applied the fair value recognition provisions of SFAS No. 123, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation”, for the period prior to the adoption of SFAS No. 123(R), and the actual effect on net income and earnings per share for the period after the adoption of SFAS No. 123(R).

If compensation expense for the Company's stock-based compensation plans had been determined consistent with SFAS 123, the Company's net income and net income per share including pro forma results would have been the amounts indicated below:

	Years Ended December 31
	2007			2006			2005
				(Restated)			(Restated)
Net income:
As reported	$	3,837,000		$	5,156,000		$	2,403,000
Add: Stock-based employee compensation expense included in net income, net of related tax effects		61,000			24,000
Deduct: Total stock-based employee compensation determined under fair value based method for all awards, net of related tax effects		(61,000	)		(24,000	)		(291,000	)

Net income, pro forma	$	3,837,000		$	5,156,000		$	2,112,000

Net income per share:
as reported:
Basic	$	0.30		$	0.41		$	0.17
Diluted	$	0.28		$	0.38		$	0.17
Pro forma:
Basic	$	0.30		$	0.41		$	0.17
Diluted	$	0.28		$	0.38		$	0.17

The pro forma effect on net income may not be representative of the pro forma effect on net income of future years due to, among other things: (i) the vesting period of the stock options and the (ii) fair value of additional stock options in future years.

For the purpose of the above table, the fair value of each option granted is estimated as of the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model with the following assumptions:

	2007			2006			2005
Dividend yield		0.0	%		0.0	%		0.0	%
Expected volatility		0.54			0.70			0.70
Risk-free interest rate		4.0	%		4.50	%		4.50	%
Expected life in years		1-5			1-5			1-5

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In September 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued SFAS No. 157, “Fair Value Measurements,” which defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value under generally accepted accounting principles, and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. SFAS No. 157 applies to other accounting pronouncements that require or permit fair value measurements. The new guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007. The adoption of SFAS No. 157 is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial position and results of operations.

In February 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 159, “The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities.” SFAS No. 159 permits entities to choose to measure many financial assets and financial liabilities at fair value. Unrealized gains and losses on items for which the fair value option has been elected are reported in earnings. SFAS No. 159 is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007. The adoption of SFAS No. 159 is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial position and results of operations.

In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 141R, “Business Combinations” and SFAS No. 160, “Non controlling Interests in Consolidated Financial Statements - an amendment to ARB No. 51.” SFAS Nos. 141R and 160 require most identifiable assets, liabilities, non controlling interests, and goodwill acquired in a business combination to be recorded at “full fair value” and require non controlling interests (previously referred to as minority interests) to be reported as a component of equity, which changes the accounting for transactions with non controlling interest holders. Both statements are effective for periods beginning on or after December 15, 2008, and early adoption is prohibited. Accordingly, SFAS No. 141R will be applied by the Company to business combinations occurring on or after January 1, 2009. SFAS No. 160 will be applied prospectively to all non controlling interests, including any that arose before the effective date. The adoption of SFAS No. 160 is not expected to have any impact on the Company’s consolidated financial position and results of operations.

Investments

In accordance with FAS No. 115, “Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt and Equity Securities”, securities are classified into three categories: held-to-maturity, available-for-sale and trading. The Company’s investments consist of debt and equity securities classified as available-for-sale securities. Accordingly, they are carried at fair value in accordance with FAS No. 115. Further, according to FAS No. 115 the unrealized holding gains and losses for available-for-sales securities are excluded from earnings and reported, net of deferred income taxes, as a separate component of stockholders’ equity, unless the loss is classified as other than a temporary decline in market value.

Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets

In June 2001, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Statement No. 142 “Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets”. This statement addresses financial accounting and reporting for acquired goodwill and other intangible assets and supersedes APB Opinion No. 17, “Intangible Assets”. It addresses how intangible assets that are acquired individually or with a group of other assets (but not those acquired in a business combination) should be accounted for in financial statements upon their acquisition. This Statement also addresses how goodwill and other intangible assets should be accounted for after they have been initially recognized in the financial statements. Upon the sale of Consumer Choice Systems, Inc. on January 17, 2006, the goodwill balance of $894,000 was removed from the Company’s books.

In addition, the Company has acquired other intangible assets, which include: customer lists, non-compete agreements, trademarks, patents, and copyrights. The non-compete agreements are fully amortized as of December 31, 2007. The customer lists are being amortized over a period ranging between 5 and 7 years based on management’s best estimate of the expected benefits to be consumed or otherwise used up. The costs of patents and copyrights are amortized over 5 and 7 years based on their estimated useful life, while trademarks representing brands with an infinite life, and are carried at cost and tested annually for impairment as outlined below. Goodwill and other intangible assets are tested annually for impairment in the fourth quarter, and are tested for impairment more frequently if events and circumstances indicate that the asset might be impaired. An impairment loss is recognized to the extent that the carrying amount exceeds the asset’s fair value. The Company assesses the recoverability of its goodwill and other intangible assets by comparing the projected undiscounted net cash flows associated with the related asset, over their remaining lives, in comparison to their respective carrying amounts. Impairment, if any, is based on the excess of the carrying amount over the fair value of those assets.

Comprehensive Income (Loss)

Comprehensive income (loss) is defined as the change in equity of a business enterprise during a period from transactions and other events and circumstances from non-owner sources, including unrealized gains and losses on marketable securities. The Company presents comprehensive income in its consolidated statements of stockholders equity.

Reclassifications

Certain amounts for the years ended December 31, 2006 and 2005 have been reclassified to conform to the presentation of the December 31, 2007 amounts. The reclassifications have no effect on net income for the years ended December 31, 2006 and 2005.

11. STOCK OPTION PLAN

On October 9, 1993 and as amended in May 1995, the Company adopted a stock option plan ("Plan") authorizing the grant of incentive and non-incentive options for an aggregate of 500,000 shares of the Company's common stock to officers, employees, directors and consultants. Incentive options are to be granted at fair market value. Options are to be exercisable as determined by the stock option committee.

In November 1997, June 2002 and July 2004, the Company amended the Plan by increasing the number of shares of the Company's common stock subject to the Plan by an aggregate of 200,000 shares, 300,000 shares and 250,000 shares respectively.

The following summarizes the stock option activity for the years ended December 31:

16. RESTATEMENT

The December 31, 2005 financial statements have been restated to recognize an additional $525,000 in amortization expense for a customer list acquired in December 2004. The Company originally assumed an indefinite life on the customer list. Per FASB 142, an estimated useful life for a customer list has to be assigned when the asset is placed into use. As a result, amortization expense should have commenced on January 1, 2005. Pre-tax income decreased by $525,000 from $3,930,000 to $3,405,000 for the year-ended December 31, 2005. Net income for the year ended December 31, 2005 decreased by $324,000 from $2,436,000 to $2,112,000 and retained earnings decreased from $1,149,000 to $825,000.

The December 31, 2006 financial statements have been restated to decrease amortization expense on customer lists by $125,000. Pre-tax income increased by $125,000 from $7,338,000 to $7,463,000 for the year-ended December 31, 2006. Net income for the year ended December 31, 2006 increased by $74,000 from $5,082,000 to $5,156,000 and retained earnings increased from $5,907,000 to $5,981,000.

17. BUSINESS SEGMENTS

Operating segments are components of an enterprise about which separate financial information is available that is regularly reviewed by the chief operating decision maker about how to allocate resources and in assessing performance. The Company has two reportable operating segments: Medifast and All Other. The Medifast reporting segment consists of the following distribution channels: Medifast Direct, Take Shape for Life, and Doctors. The All Other reporting segments consist of Hi-Energy and Medifast Weight Control Centers, the Company’s parent company operations, as well as the Consumer Choice Systems, Inc. division which was sold in January of 2006.

The accounting policies of the segments are the same as those of the Company. The presentation and allocation of assets, liabilities and results of operations may not reflect the actual economic costs of the segments as stand-alone businesses. If a different basis of allocation were utilized, the relative contributions of the segments might differ, but management believes that the relative trends in segments would likely not be impacted.
