PART I

ITEM 1. BUSINESS

Overview

Nuvilex, Inc. operates independently and through wholly-owned subsidiaries.  We are dedicated to bringing to market scientifically derived products designed to improve the health, condition and well-being of those who use them. The Companys current strategy is to focus on developing and marketing products it believes have potential for long-term corporate growth.

History of the Company

The Company was founded as DJH International, Inc., a Nevada corporation, on October 28, 1996, changing its name to eFoodSafety.com, Inc. following the October 16, 2000 acquisition of Global Procurement Systems, Inc. The Company acquired Ozone Safe Food, Inc. for Common Stock on October 29, 2003. The Companys early mission provided methods and products to ensure safety of marketed fruits and vegetables worldwide. On February 4, 2004, the Company registered shares with the Securities and Exchange Commission and its Common Stock began publicly trading on the OTC Bulletin Board under the trading symbol EFSF. The Company did not issue shares of Common Stock pursuant to an initial public offering. With less than projected demand for its produce sterilization methods and software tracking products, the Company changed its strategy and acquired Knock-Out Technologies, Ltd. and MedElite, Inc. in May 2004 and August 2005, respectively, of which Knock-Out Technologies, Ltd. was a developer of products using organic, non-toxic, food based substances and MedElite, Inc. was the exclusive U.S. distributor of TalsynTM-CI Scar Cream (Talsyn), a topical scar- reducing cream. The Companys strategy was to bring to market scientifically derived products. The Company sold its Ozone Safe Food, Inc. operations in August 2005. In November 2006, the Company formed Cinnergen, Inc., a wholly-owned subsidiary, to manufacture and market a non-prescription liquid nutritional supplement designed to promote healthy glucose metabolism, and purEffect, Inc., another wholly-owned subsidiary, to manufacture and market purEffectTM, a four-step non-prescription acne treatment. On March 10, 2006, the Company licensed the marketing rights for purEffectTM to Charlston Kentrist 41 Direct, Inc. (CK41). In July 2007, I-Boost, Inc., a wholly-owned subsidiary was formed to market products to support the immune system. In March 2008, Cinnechol, Inc. became a wholly-owned subsidiary to promote cardiovascular health. In February 2009, the Company sold the rights to the purEffectTM product to CK41 for an equity position in CK41 and future royalty compensation. In March 2009, Freedom2 Holdings, Inc. was acquired to manufacture and market products including Infinitink®, a permanent tattoo ink designed to be removed more easily using conventional laser light. The Company changed its name to Nuvilex, Inc. on March 18, 2009 as part of the process.

Current Business of the Company

The Company has been working diligently to become a biotechnology and life technology company over the past year.  As a result, the Company made major efforts to work with the principals and acquire Austrianova Singapore Private Limited (Austrianova Singapore or ASPL), previously assets of SG Austria Private Limited or SG Austria,) to advance research and to develop and market new biotechnologies and medical therapies.  The acquisition was completed in June 2012 and Austrianova Singapore and Bio Blue Bird (BBB) became wholly-owned subsidiaries of Nuvilex, Inc.  The Company business is that of an emerging biotechnology and life technology company which also contains Consumer Healthcare and Environmental Solutions Divisions.

Going Concern

The Company's financial statements are prepared using accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAP) applicable to a going concern which contemplates the realization of assets and liquidation of liabilities in the normal course of business. The Company has not yet established an ongoing source of revenue sufficient to cover its operating costs and allow it to continue as a going concern. In addition, as of April 30, 2012, the Company had an accumulated deficit of $39,848,005, incurred a net loss for the year ended April 30, 2012 of $1,899,312 and negative working capital of $2,728,628.

Funding has been provided by the Companys CEO, Dr. Robert Ryan as well as old and new investors committed to make it possible to maintain, expand, and ensure the advancement of Nuvilex and help the Company see one of its visions through to providing a pancreatic cancer treatment in the future. Furthermore, although the Companys current business plan includes funding requirements beyond the anticipated cash flows from operations, we continue to acquire such funds as the Company moves forward toward its pancreatic cancer treatment and the numerous other opportunities being advanced at this point. However, these factors raise potential doubt as to the Company's ability to continue as a going concern.  We at Nuvilex are nonetheless committed to working with the myriad of personnel and interested investors to ensure our success.

Strategy

The Company has been in existence for more than a decade.  During this time many different products were brought into the Company with the intention to work toward seeing them become household names and products.  Several of these products have become well used, but the challenge with all products is to make them well recognized, useful, important, and valuable enough that the everyday consumers use them without fail.  On a daily basis, the Company receives different inquiries for the Nuvilex products.  As a result, the overall Company structure of Nuvilex has changed in many ways over the years.  From those humble beginnings we are now working to move this Company forward into a modern one with clarity and vision.  

Since June 2011, we have been working with the Chief Executives of Austrianova Singapore across a wide swath of areas.  Much of the effort has been on establishing plans for our future.  Therefore, and in conjunction with maintenance of the company, funding has been provided to ASPL and its personnel in order to ensure ASPLs functionality and maintain its ability to accomplish numerous goals over the year.  After many months worth of accomplishments and planning and upon completion of our fiscal year in April 2012, Nuvilex and ASPL finally were able to bring ASPL onboard as one of its subsidiaries.  This first vision has been noted as one of the most valuable advances for this company, enabling the creation of a biotechnology/life technology company.  Unlike most companies of this type and entirely due to the Companys extensive array of products already in-house, Nuvilex exists as a Biotech Company with a broad company base, much like that of larger biotechnology or pharmaceutical companies after years of advances and purchasing of products from the outside.  Thus, with an overall goal of long-term growth, the Company is poised to be thrust into a very different position, particularly as a result of the stabilizing of its financial condition that has been occurring over the past year.

Management believes its vision to become an important industry-leading Biotechnology company, with a multi-part strategy like those of larger pharmaceutical companies will strengthen the Companys position in both the short and long term.  Notwithstanding and as the financial experts accurately point out, Nuvilex may seek to raise capital to fund growth opportunities and provide for its working capital needs as the vision of the company is executed.  The Companys efforts to achieve financial stability and enable carrying out the strategy of the company include several primary components:


1. Continued elimination of prior operation-associated debt from the Parent Company and all subsidiaries;


2. Advance and develop the biotechnology through ongoing research;


3. Acquisition of new contracts utilizing the biotechnology;


4. Expand and Market products and their uses.

Biotechnology Division

Our newly created Biotechnology Division of the Company is under the capable management of ASPL who have been working in this area for decades.  The live cell encapsulation technology can be viewed as the equivalent to a modern computer operating system. We have created the hardware and operating platform to envelop or encapsulate our own or other companys software products, or cells.  These cells are then packaged in our live cell encapsulation operating system.

From extensive studies and research, we believe any cell type can be encapsulated, allowing the use of live cell encapsulation for a multitude of purposes. This opens numerous possibilities for co-development activities, manufacturing and licensing with other companies and cell systems they would like to encapsulate.

Living cell encapsulation or the Cell-in-a-Box® technology enables living cells to be used as a miniature factory in which cells can be grown and maintained, or desired components can be created or converted for treatment of diseases or isolating products for subsequent marketing:

In the Biotechnology setting, which involves the large scale amplification and production of useful biotech products outside the body of a person or an animal, the proprietary live cell encapsulation technology creates a micro-environment in which delicate cells survive and are protected from environmental challenges such as the sheer forces associated with bioreactors, enabling greater growth and production

In the Biomedicine application, the aim is for production of biological products inside the body of a person or an animal after the living encapsulated cells have been specifically placed there, the technology enables cells to survive and be controlled like any other living cell in the body. As the structure of the capsule is permeable, small molecules such as nutrients and oxygen can pass through its pores enabling the encapsulated therapeutic cells to live in the body thereby becoming new cells or miniature organs of the body.

The Cell-in-a-Box® and Bac-in-a-Box® brings significant new advantages and opportunities to market, namely:

·

One of the key uses of our technology is in the treatment of solid tumors where the ability to release the active agent directly at the source of the disease facilitates localized or systemic treatment as needed, thus having the value of increasing efficacy as the treatment agent is delivered directly to the critical site. Increased efficacy can also allow for lower dosages, thereby reducing side effects. The technology also holds great potential for the treatment of systemic diseases, including but not limited to diabetes.

·

This technology allows for confinement and maintenance of therapeutic cells at the site of implantation, an important characteristic for local treatment.

·

Being able to encapsulate and maintain the cells inside the capsule at the site of implantation provides a safety mechanism for regulating cells that are introduced, including stem cells that would be desired to be maintained at specific site(s) in the body as a part of therapy.

·

The capsules allow cells implanted to evade the bodys immune system, potentially permanently, without suppressive therapy. Foreign cells are not recognized by the immune system as they sit within the capsule (and cells carrying out immune recognition functions are too large to pass through the capsules pores). Therefore, the encapsulated cells are not rejected by the bodys immune system, eliminating the need for immunosuppressive drugs as part of the treatment.

·

The safety of the Cell-in-a-Box® technology and the cells used for those studies has already been proven in clinical trials for two years.  In addition, the technology enjoys multi-layered patent protection which is being expanded.

·

The same technology has also been used to encapsulate prokaryotic cells (bacteria). The use of encapsulation with bacteria is called Bac-in-a-Box®. Nuvilex and ASPL are working together to bring this to fruition. 

 


Consumer Healthcare and Environmental Solutions Division (in alphabetical order)

This new Division of Nuvilex is comprised of the natural products that have been a part of Nuvilex for several years and are in one of the many stages of development including initial research, product development, initial production or established


4



customer base.  As the Company continues to develop, any changes in this Division or its products will be driven by numerous factors and management working to determine the best disposition for each as we move the Company forward.  The products in this Division currently owned by Nuvilex directly or in a specific subsidiary are: Cinnechol, Cinnergen, Cinnsational, Citroxin, Cyclosurface3 Cosmetics, Infinitink, Talsyn, Oraphyte, and PurEffect which is currently under management by another company.  Each is described briefly below.

Cinnechol

CinnecholÔ, a gluten free/wheat free all-natural supplement designed to help maintain normal cholesterol levels and support normal cardiovascular function through a healthy diet and regular exercise and to help individuals manage cardiovascular and metabolic disorders.  CinnecholÔ may provide a natural alternative for those with high cholesterol and intolerant of, or elect not to take statins.


Cinnergen

CinnergenÔ, a gluten free/wheat free all-natural liquid whole food nutritional supplement that provides nutrients to help the body efficiently process glucose, is made from natural ingredients. Clinical studies using CinnergenÔ as well as peer reviewed research suggest constituents of CinnergenÔ may help to reduce glucose absorption in the small intestine, limit glucose synthesis and increase its metabolism and prevent conditions associated with pre-diabetes or diabetes types 1 and 2 by delivering amino acids, vitamins, minerals, enzymes, antioxidants, and plant based extracts to the body thus helping control glucose levels.

Cinnsational

Cinnsational, a gluten free/wheat free all-natural calorie-free, liquid nutritional supplement contains concentrated blend vitamins, essential amino acids, and other beneficial ingredients to help the body combat symptoms associated with alcohol sensitivity, including nausea, fatigue and headaches.

Citroxin

CitroxinÔ is an all-natural, eco-friendly surface cleaner (previously Big 6 Plus). Laboratory testing showed a 100% kill rate for the "big six" bacterial health threats, including E. coli, Listeria, Pseudomonas, Salmonella, Staphylococcus, Streptococcus, and Black Mold and is an effective antiviral cleaner against swine flu virus [swine influenza virus (H1N1 subtype)] and bird flu virus [avian influenza viruses (H5N1, H9N1 and H9N9) viral subtypes].  Citroxin Ô is protected by patents in the United States and worldwide.

Cyclosurface3 Cosmetics

Nuvilexs patent-pending Cyclosurface3 color enhancement technology provides formulators and manufacturers of cosmetics and other consumer products the ability to use less wax and other potentially detrimental additives in their products through a lipophilic surface treatment that improves pigment dispersion enabling products that feel lighter on the skin and make the skin look more radiant while maintaining or enhancing the color and durability of the cosmetic product.

I-Boost Immune Bar

I-BoostÔ Immune Bar, a gluten free/wheat free all-natural nutritional bar designed to protect, stimulate, and boost the immune system  was reformulated and contains a proprietary blend of vitamins, minerals, and other ingredients designed to enhance the bodys natural ability to defend itself.  

Infinitink®


Infinitink®, a permanent, yet removable tattoo ink, was engineered specifically for removal in fewer laser treatments than standard tattoo ink, typically shown to be two treatments. Typically, lasers used for removal of tattoos use 532 and 1064 nm wavelengths which closely match the InfinitinkÒ tattoo pigments, enabling more easily removed tattoos. A clinical study confirmed InfinitinkÒ was more easily removed, with participants averaging removal in two treatments.

Oraphyte

Oraphyte, the Companys all-natural nematocide, is a non-toxic, biodegradable proprietary formulation that damages a nematodes skin surface, compromising its immune system, enabling it to be killed by the environment.  In field tests,


5



Oraphyte significantly reduced nematodes compared to non-treated controls.

purEffect

PurEffect is a three part, all-in-one acne treatment designed to cleanse, tone, and heal skin combining ingredients to help maintain a radiant, blemish-free complexion. Benzoyl peroxide, the active ingredient in purEffect is the safest, most widely recommended ingredient used to treat acne.  This line of products completed pre-marketing testing by CK41.  The Company maintains royalties and other rights (described elsewhere herein).

Specialty, Private Label Inks

The Company has the potential to manufacture specialty inks for private label customers derived from the Companys Virgin and Infinitink product lines and are formulated to specific customer needs. The Companys specialty inks are formulated to be all natural, heavy metal and toxin-free.

TalsynÔ Scar Cream

TalsynÔ Scar Cream is a unique composition that delivers lipids, peptides, and botanical extracts to the skin and was clinically proven to improve appearance of keloids, surgical incisions, and scars through decreasing their width, length, depth, and redness for both old and new scars.  TalsynÔ Scar Cream has been endorsed and used by leading plastic and reconstructive surgeons.

All Divisions

Marketing, Sales and Distribution

The new biotechnology based products being developed are beginning to be planned for marketing, sales and distribution.  In the not too distant future, we plan to provide more information about their status and how they can be acquired.  

Historically, Nuvilexs products have been marketed, sold and distributed directly by the Company and through third party marketing and distribution partners. Presently, Cinnergen and Cinnechol can be purchased directly from Nuvilex using the Nuvilex website (www.nuvilex.com) or the subsidiary websites, such as that for Cinnergen (www.cinnergen.com). Whether or not we continue these products, or outside third parties achieve market penetration is based on their commitment to invest in the marketing and sales of the various products. In part, the future maintenance and/or success is dependent upon the efforts of the Parent Company or its subsidiarys direct internet sales, resellers and third party distribution partners and their ability or inability to successfully market the Companys products, any of which could adversely affect the business of the Company.


Competition

There is competition for the biotechnology products being developed by the Company and our subsidiary ASPL at present and intense competition exists among providers of products similar to the Companys other products. Many of these latter competitors have substantially greater financial and marketing resources than Nuvilex, stronger name recognition, brand loyalty and long-standing relationships with target customers. Both the Biotechnology Division and the Consumer Healthcare and Environmental Solution Divisions future success continues to be dependent upon the Companys ability to compete and its failure to do so could adversely affect its success.

Government Regulations

The FDA ensures safety of the entire community through its regulations as disparate as biologics to drugs to some meats and dietary supplements.  As we develop additional products, some of these will require clinical trials and FDA approval.  In addition, some of our products are considered dietary supplements which fall under different regulations than "conventional" food and drug products.  The dietary supplement manufacturer is responsible for ensuring a dietary supplement is safe before marketing and the FDA is responsible after the products reach the market. Generally, domestic and foreign facilities manufacturing, processing, packing, or holding such foods for human or animal consumption in the United States are required to register their facility with the FDA.  The facility that Nuvilex utilizes is FDA registered and inspected. Nonetheless, manufacturers must make certain product label information is truthful and not misleading, which Nuvilex and its subsidiaries concur with and follow. FDA's post-marketing responsibilities, to which Nuvilex subscribes, include monitoring safety, voluntary supplement adverse event reporting and product information, labeling, claims, package inserts, and accompanying literature and the Federal Trade Commission regulates dietary supplement advertising.  


6



The FDA also regulates cosmetics, although differently than other products they regulate. Cosmetic products and ingredients are not subject to FDA premarket approval authority, with the exception of color additives. However, the FDA may pursue enforcement action against products, firms or individuals who violate regulatory laws.  Increased federal, state, local or international regulation could adversely affect its business, financial condition and operations by requiring additional or new testing of products and imposing different or new licensing requirements.  Therefore, Nuvilex has and continues to expend effort to ensure its products are safe and follow regulatory guidelines, requirements, and laws.  

Patents, Intellectual Property and Trade Secrets

Nuvilex has determined that intellectual property (IP) and patent protection are of paramount important to our business. Although the Company takes reasonable measures to protect its IP, the Company cannot guarantee it will be able to protect and enforce its IP or obtain international patent protection for its products as needed. Nuvilex and its subsidiaries own trademarks and own, co-own or have exclusive worldwide licensing rights to numerous patents in multiple countries over four technical areas: live cell encapsulation, pigment modification, microencapsulation, and disinfectant/germicidal compositions. Litigation may be required to enforce the Companys products, IP rights, trade secrets, or determine the validity and scope of the proprietary rights of others.  Maintenance of these utilizes financial and operational resources and the possibility exists wherein the Companys IP could be discovered to be owned by others, invalid, or unenforceable, potentially bringing unforeseen challenges to the Company.


The Consumer Healthcare and Environmental Solutions Division

The overall company structure has enabled the creation of a broad company base, much like that of larger biotechnology or pharmaceutical companies.  Nonetheless, as a result of the intense competition across the many areas of products the Company has, there is the possibility that either the Company may move them forward into greater use, brand exposure and sales or may divest itself of the products as appropriate circumstances present themselves.

Sources and Availability of Raw Materials

We have for many years been successful at procuring the necessary raw materials to maintain and produce our products.  Both the old and new products depend extensively on the ability to procure the basic materials to make them.  Thus, since all raw materials in our products could at any time in the future be difficult to obtain in large quantities and could have potential negative impact on the Company and or its subsidiaries.

Employees 

Nuvilex, as of April 30, 2012, had eight employees including all subsidiaries and has increased due to the subsequent event acquisition of ASPL to a total of sixteen employees. Nuvilex also utilizes consultants, independent contractors and temporary employees in finance and accounting, and other capacities. 

ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS

You should carefully consider these factors that may affect future results, together with all of the other information included in this Form 10-K, in evaluating the business and the Company. The risks and uncertainties described below are those that the Company currently believes may materially affect its business and results of operations.  Additional risks and uncertainties that Nuvilex is unaware of or that it currently deems immaterial also may become important factors that affect its business and result of operations.  Nuvilex common shares involve a high degree of risk and should be purchased only by investors who can afford a loss of their entire investment.  Prospective investors should carefully consider the following risk factors concerning the Companys business before making an investment.

In addition, you should carefully consider these risks when you read forward-looking statements elsewhere in this Form 10-K.  These are statements that relate to the Companys expectations for future events and time periods.  Generally, the words anticipate, expect, intend, and similar expressions identify forward-looking statements.  Forward-looking statements involve risks and uncertainties, and future events and circumstances could differ significantly from those anticipated in the forward-looking statements. 

Doubt Regarding Ability to Continue as a Going Concern 

Nuvilexs financial statements have been presented on the basis that Nuvilex is and will remain a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business.  The Company had


7



minimal revenues and incurred net operating losses for the period October 1999 (inception) through April 30, 2012, and as such, the Companys independent auditors have concluded these factors create an uncertainty about Nuvilexs ability to continue as a going concern. The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent, among other factors, on its continued success in marketing its products, containing costs, establishing a credit facility, and/or raising additional equity capital.  The financial statements of Nuvilex do not include any adjustments that might be necessary if the Company is unable to continue as a going concern.

Early Revenue Stage Company:  Generation of Revenues

Nuvilex is an early revenue stage company and an investor cannot readily determine if the Company will become profitable. Nuvilex is likely to continue to experience financial difficulties during this early revenue stage and beyond. The Company may be unable to operate profitably, even if it generates additional revenues.  Nuvilex may not obtain the necessary working capital to continue developing and marketing its products. Furthermore, the present products may not receive sufficient interest to generate revenues or achieve profitability.


Need for Future Capital: Long-Term Viability of Company

Nuvilex will need additional capital to continue its operations.

There can be no assurance that the Company will generate revenues from present operations or obtain sufficient capital on acceptable terms, if at all.  Failure to obtain such capital or generate such operating revenues would have an adverse impact on the Companys financial position, operations and ability to continue as a going concern.   Nuvilex operating and capital requirements during the next fiscal year and thereafter will vary based on a number of factors, including the level of sales and marketing activities for its services and products.  There can be no assurance that additional private or public financing, including debt or equity financing, will be available as needed or if available, on terms favorable to the Company. Additionally, any future equity financing may be dilutive to stockholders present ownership levels and such additional equity securities may have rights, preferences, or privileges that are senior to those of Nuvilex existing common stock.

Furthermore, debt financing, if available, may require payment of interest and potentially involve restrictive covenants that could impose limitations on the flexibility of the Company to operate.  Nuvilexs difficulty or failure to successfully obtain additional funding may jeopardize its ability to continue the business and its operations.

Unpredictability of Future Revenues:  Potential Fluctuations in Operating Results 

As a result of Nuvilexs limited operating history; the Company is currently unable to accurately forecast its revenues. Current and future expense levels are based largely on the Companys marketing and development plans and estimates of future revenue.  Sales and operating results generally depend on volume and timing of orders and on the Companys ability to fulfill such orders, both of which are difficult to forecast.  Nuvilex may be unable to adjust spending in a timely manner to compensate for any unexpected revenue shortfall. Accordingly, any significant shortfall in revenues in relation to planned expenditures could have an immediate adverse effect on the Companys business, prospects, financial condition and results of operations. Further, as a strategic response to changes in the competitive environment, Nuvilex may from time to time make certain pricing, service or marketing decisions that could have a material adverse effect on its business, prospects, financial condition and results of operations.

Nuvilex may experience significant fluctuations in future operating results due to a variety of factors, many of which are outside the Companys control.  Factors that may affect operating results include:  (i) ability to obtain and retain customers, (ii) attract new customers at a steady rate and maintain customer satisfaction with products, (iii) the announcement or introduction of new services by Nuvilex or its competitors, (iv) price competition, (v) the level of use and consumer acceptance of its products, (vi) the amount and timing of operating costs and capital expenditures relating to expansion of the business, operations and infrastructure, (vii) governmental regulations, and (viii) general economic conditions.

Flaws and Defects in Products

Products offered by Nuvilex may contain undetected flaws or defects when first introduced or as new versions are released. Any inaccuracy or defects may result in adverse product reviews and a loss or delay in market acceptance. There can be no assurance that flaws or defects will not be found in Nuvilex products. Flaws and defects, if found, could have a materially adverse effect upon the business operations and financial condition of the Company. Marketing of any of the Companys potential products may expose the Company to liability claims resulting from the use of the Companys products. These claims might be made by consumers, health care providers, sellers of the Companys products or others. A claim, particularly resulting from a clinical trial, or a product recall could harm the Companys business, results of operations, financial condition, cash flow and future prospects.

Stock Price Volatility

The market price of the Companys stock has fluctuated in the past and may continue to fluctuate in the future.  The Company believes such fluctuations will continue as a result of many factors, including US and World markets, financing plans, future announcements concerning the Company, the Companys competitors, principal customers regarding financial results or expectations, industry supply or demand dynamics, new product introductions, governmental regulations, the commencement or results of litigation or changes in earnings estimates by analysts.  In addition, in recent years the stock market has experienced significant price and volume fluctuations often for reasons outside the control of the particular companies.  These fluctuations as well as general economic, political and market conditions may have an adverse affect on the market price of the Companys common stock.

Worldwide Economic Conditions

The Companys financial performance depends significantly on worldwide economic conditions and the related impact on levels of consumer spending, which has recently deteriorated significantly in many countries and regions, including the U.S., and may remain depressed for the foreseeable future.  Demand for the Companys products may be adversely affected by negative macroeconomic factors affecting consumer spending.  Substantial tightening of consumer credit, low consumer liquidity, and extreme volatility in credit and equity markets have weakened consumer confidence and decreased consumer spending.  These and other economic factors have reduced demand for the Companys products and harmed the Companys business, financial condition and results of operations, and to the extent such economic conditions continue, they could cause further harm to the Companys business, financial condition and operations.

Dependence on Sales through Retailers and Distributors

The Companys business that depends significantly upon sales through retailers and distributors may be affected if the Companys retailers and distributors are not successful.  As a result, the Company could experience reduced sales, substantial product returns or increased price protection, any of which would negatively impact the Companys business, financial condition and results of operations.  A significant portion of the Companys sales are made through retailers, either directly or through distributors.  If the Companys retailers and distributors are not successful, due to weak consumer retail demand caused by the current worldwide economic downturn, decline in consumer confidence, or other factors, the Company could continue to experience reduced sales as well as substantial product returns or price protection claims, which could harm the Companys business, financial condition and operations.  

Limited Management Personnel

Under Nuvilexs business plan, significant and material matters of business must be conducted and concluded in a timely fashion.  The execution of the Companys business plan places a significant strain on the Companys management while providing little or no immediate compensation.

There can be no assurance that Nuvilexs planned personnel, systems, procedures and controls will be adequate to support its future operations, management will be able to hire, train, retain, motivate and manage personnel or that its management will be able to successfully identify, manage and exploit existing and potential market opportunities. If Nuvilex is unable to manage growth effectively, the Companys business, prospects, financial condition, results and operations could be adversely affected.

Competition

The market in which Nuvilex competes is highly competitive, and the Company has no assurance that it will be able to compete effectively, especially against established industry competitors with significantly greater financial resources. The Company expects it may face competition from a few competitors with potentially greater financial resources, well-established brand names and large, pre-existing customer bases. From the research efforts underway in so many countries around the world, Nuvilex expects the level of competition may intensify in the future.


Dependence on Management

Nuvilexs performance will be substantially dependent on the continued services and on the performance of the current senior management and other key personnel of the Company. Nuvilexs performance will also depend on the Companys ability to


9



retain and motivate its other officers and key employees.  Nuvilexs inability to retain its executive officers or other key employees could have a material adverse effect on the Companys business, prospects, financial condition and results of operations.  The Companys future success depends to a great extent on its ability to identify, attract, hire, train, retain and motivate other highly skilled technical, managerial, merchandising, marketing and customer service personnel.  Competition for such personnel can be intense and there is no assurance Nuvilex will be able to successfully attract, assimilate and retain sufficiently qualified personnel. The failure to retain and attract the necessary technical and managerial personnel could have a material adverse effect on the Companys business, prospects, financial condition and results of operations. 

Development of Brand Awareness 

For certain market segments that Nuvilex plans to pursue, the development of its brand awareness is essential for it to reduce its marketing expenditures over time and realize greater benefits from marketing expenditures.  If the Companys brand-marketing efforts are unsuccessful, growth prospects, financial condition and results of operations would be adversely affected. Nuvilexs brand awareness efforts have required, and will most likely continue to require additional expenses.

Intellectual Property Protection:  Uncertainty of Protection of Proprietary Rights

Nuvilex currently relies on a combination of patents, trademarks, trade secret protection, non-disclosure agreements and licensing arrangements to establish and protect its proprietary rights. Despite efforts to safeguard and maintain Nuvilexs proprietary rights, there can be no assurance the Company will be successful in doing so or its competitors will not independently develop products substantially equivalent or superior.

Nuvilex also relies on trade secrets and proprietary know-how, which the Company seeks to protect by confidentiality and non-disclosure agreements with its employees, consultants, and third parties.  There can be no assurance that these agreements will not be breached, that the Company will have adequate remedies for any breach, or that certain of Nuvilexs trade secrets and proprietary know-how will not otherwise become known or be discovered by competitors.

Protecting or defending the Companys IP rights, to protect trade secrets, to determine the validity and scope of the proprietary rights of others, or to defend against claims of infringement or invalidity may require litigation. Such litigation, whether successful or unsuccessful, could result in substantial costs and diversions of management resources, either of which could have a materially adverse effect on Nuvilex business, prospects, financial condition, or operating results.


Availability and Coverage of Insurance


For certain risks, the Company does not maintain insurance coverage because of cost and/or availability. Because the Company retains some portion of its insurable risks, and in some cases self-insures completely, unforeseen or catastrophic losses in excess of insured limits could have a material adverse effect on the Companys financial condition and operating results.


Federal, State, Local and Foreign Laws and Regulations


The Company is subject to laws and regulations enforced by the FDA, the DEA, the CDHS, foreign health authorities and other regulatory statutes including the Occupational Safety and Health Act, the Environmental Protection Act, the Toxic Substances Control Act, the Food, Drug and Cosmetic Act, the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act, and other current and potential federal, state, local and foreign laws and regulations governing the use, manufacture, storage, handling and disposal of the Companys products, materials used to develop the Companys products, and resulting waste products. The Companys past research, product development and manufacturing activities have involved the controlled use of hazardous materials and the Company may incur costs as a result of the need to comply with these laws and regulations.


Penny Stock Regulation

The Companys securities sold as part of financing provided to the Company may be subject to penny stock rules that impose additional sales requirements on broker-dealers who sell such securities to persons other than established customers and accredited investors, the latter of which are generally people with assets in excess of $1,000,000 or annual income exceeding $200,000 or $300,000 jointly. For transactions covered by these rules, the Company and/or broker-dealer must make a special suitability determination for the purchase of such securities and have received the purchasers written consent to the transaction prior to the purchase.  Additionally, for any transaction involving a penny stock, unless exempt, the penny stock rules require the delivery, prior to the transaction, of a disclosure schedule prescribed by the Securities and Exchange Commission relating to the penny stock market. The broker-dealer must also disclose the commissions payable to both the


10



broker-dealer and the registered representative and current quotations for the securities. Finally, monthly statements must be sent disclosing recent price information on the limited market in penny stocks. Consequently, the penny stock rules may restrict the ability of broker-dealers to sell the Companys securities. The foregoing required penny stock restrictions will not apply to the Companys common stock if such securities maintain a market price of $5.00 or greater. Therefore the challenge for the Company is that the market price of the Companys common stock may not reach or remain at such a level.

ITEM 3. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS


In July 2011 a claim was filed by Cornerstone Bank (Cornerstone) against Freedom-2, Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, for amounts due under a promissory note (the Note), in the original principal amount of $1.6 million (collectively the Indebtedness). The bank also sought to foreclose its mortgage on the property securing the Note, which is located in Cherry Hill, New Jersey (the Property). Given the passage of time and the Company having made no payments toward the Indebtedness for several years, as of May 2012, the amount due was approximately $2.0 million.

The Company recently resolved all matters related to Cornerstones claims (the Settlement) and is in the process of effecting the Settlement, as follows: (i) the parties stipulate to judgment in the amount of the Indebtedness, with a stay of execution for 2 years pending the Company satisfying the Indebtedness in any of several ways, including direct payments of cash and discounts of up to 30% for early payments, or a combination thereof; (ii) the Company conveys the Property to Cornerstone, which will sell the Property and apply the net proceeds to reduce the Indebtedness (in the event the Property is not sold and the Indebtedness satisfied as otherwise described herein, the Property will be reconveyed to the Company); and (iii) the Company reaffirms the pledge of 14,605,614 shares of the Companys common stock as security for payment of the Indebtedness (the Stock Collateral), which can be liquidated by Cornerstone from time to time in accordance with a SEC Rule 10b5-1 plan, with the proceeds being applied to reduce the Indebtedness and with any excess Stock Collateral being returned to the Company upon payment of the Indebtedness in full.

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

SALES

Revenues from product sales for fiscal 2012 were $66,558 compared to $75,997 in fiscal year 2011.  Product sales in fiscal 2012 occurred throughout the fiscal year, yet few funds were committed to initiate any marketing since the majority of all funds were directed toward the goal of maintaining and acquiring ASPL and the opportunity to complete the acquisition which was subsequently accomplished.  


RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT

 

The majority of the funds being used this year were to acquire ASPL as a subsidiary. Since then, the Company acquired ASPL as our subsidiary, and their work primarily has consisted of research and development activities which included, but were not limited to product conception, design, development, evaluation, formulation, manufacturing, packaging and testing. As with all corporate and university research, product conception, design and evaluation does not necessarily yield commercially viable products, but from our vantage point it is likely that some will come from the efforts expended over the year. The present management is fully utilizing prior research efforts in advancing products not fully developed to date.  

This is typically one of the most challenging steps, but one management is truly committed to, i.e. monetizing research discoveries through multiple means.


12



 


SALES AND MARKETING

The Company incurred sales and marketing expenses of $11,150 in fiscal 2012 compared to $10,830 in fiscal 2011. The change in sales and marketing expenses was due in part to available cash resources to invest in such activities, and partly due to planned utilization of scarce resources.  Most of the available resources had been consumed during fiscal year 2011.  

Presently, the Company regulates its sales and marketing expenses through its Internet-based Division of Sales and Marketing and its resellers and retail distributors.


GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE


General and administrative expenses were $416,171 for fiscal 2012 as compared to the $237,025 in expenses in fiscal 2011, an increase of $179,146. These expenses pay for office and other overhead expenses. The Company took aggressive steps during all of fiscal 2012 to reduce and maintain its general and administrative expenses at a low level including, but not limited to reductions of all overhead expenses. In the current fiscal year additional expenses were incurred related to the pending settlement with Cornerstone Bank.


OTHER INCOME AND EXPENSE


The Company recorded a $79,503 loss on disposal of fixed assets in fiscal year 2012 as well as a gain on settlement of debt of $370,619.


LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

As of April 30, 2012, the Company had negative working capital of $2,728,628. By adjusting the Company's operations to the level of capitalization, working with its creditors to establish a reasonable and timely manner for resolving outstanding debts and through small cash investments from new and existing shareholders, management believes it has sufficient resources to meet present cash flow needs. If the Company is not successful in generating sufficient liquidity from operations or in resolving its outstanding debt issues with its creditors on terms acceptable to the Company, this could have a materially adverse effect on the Companys business, liquidity and financial condition. The Companys independent certified public accountants have stated in their report, which is included as part of the Companys audited financial statements for the fiscal years ended April 30, 2012 and 2011 that the Company has suffered recurring losses from operations which raises doubt about the Companys ability to continue as a going concern.  

The Company has no off-balance sheet arrangements, special purpose entities, financing partnerships or guarantees.

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


(a) On February 9, 2012, Nuvilex, Inc. (theCompany) dismissed the present independent auditors M & K CPAS, PLLC, as the Company prepares to complete the acquisition of the assets of SG Austria, and wish to concurrently thank M & K CPAS, PLLC for their attention to detail and regulations, having aided Nuvilex substantially in moving the company forward over the past year. The dismissal of M & K CPAS, PLLC as the Company's independent accountants was a result of a competitive bidding process involving several accounting firms and was approved by the Companys Board of Directors.


The reports of M & K CPAS, PLLC on the Companys financial statements for the fiscal years ended April 30, 2011 and 2010 did not contain an adverse opinion or a disclaimer of opinion and were not qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope or accounting principles, except that it included an emphasis paragraph on the substantial doubt about the Company's


13



ability to continue as a going concern as of a result of the Company having suffered recurring losses from operations.. In connection with the audits of the Companys financial statements for the fiscal years ended April 30, 2011 and 2010 and from April 30, 2011 and the subsequent interim period through February 9, 2012, (1) there were no disagreements with M & K CPAS, PLLC on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure or auditing scope and procedure which, if not resolved to the satisfaction of M & K CPAS, PLLC, would have caused M & K CPAS, PLLC to make reference to the matter in its report and (2) there were no reportable events as that term is defined in Item 304 of Regulation S-K promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (Item 304).


(b) On February 10, 2012, the Company engaged ROBISON, HILL & COMPANY as the Company's independent accountant to audit the Companys financial statements and to perform reviews of interim financial statements. During the fiscal years ended April 30, 2011 and 2010 and from April 30, 2011 and the subsequent interim period through February 10, 2012 neither the Company nor anyone acting on its behalf consulted with ROBISON, HILL & COMPANY regarding (i) either the application of any accounting principles to a specific completed or contemplated transaction of the Company, or the type of audit opinion that might be rendered by ROBISON, HILL & COMPANY on the Company's financial statements; or (ii) any matter that was either the subject of a disagreement with M & K CPAS, PLLC or a reportable event with respect to M & K CPAS, PLLC.

ITEM 9A. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES


The Companys upper Management, including the Chief Executive, Chief Financial, and Chief Operating Officers, as of the end of the period covered by this Annual Report on Form 10-K, have concluded our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-14(c) and 15d-14(c) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) were not effective as described in the act, although efforts were made to do so and to ensure information required to be disclosed in reports we file or submit under the Exchange Act are recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in SEC rules and forms.  As we continue to expand, we aim to become effective in the areas of disclosure controls and procedures in order to move the Company forward successfully.


Management, including the Chief Executive Officer/Interim Chief Financial Officer and Chief Operating Officer, do not expect its present disclosure controls and procedures nor its internal controls will allow nor prevent all error or fraud.  A control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute assurance the objectives of the control system are met.  Further, the design of a control system must reflect the fact that resource constraints and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs.  Due to the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, have been detected. To address the material weaknesses, management performed additional analysis and other post-closing procedures in an effort to ensure its consolidated financial statements included in this annual report have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles and are as free of fraud as best as can be determined. Accordingly, management believes the financial statements included in this report fairly present in all material respects our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented.


Changes in Internal Controls.


There were no significant changes in our internal controls or other factors that could significantly affect these controls subsequent to the date of their evaluation. There were no deficiencies or material weaknesses recognized as of April 30, 2012, and therefore no corrective actions were deemed necessary. However, the design of any system of controls is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events and there is no certainty that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goal under all potential future considerations, regardless of how remote.  It is managements plan however, to work toward better assessment of any and all necessary internal controls and thereby to increase the capability to recognize errors and prevent fraud as the Company strives for bettering itself from this point.  We have already initiated discussions to study, assess and create everything necessary throughout the remainder of the year to achieve effective disclosure controls and procedures, in particular in association with the recent acquisition of ASPL and BBB.  Nonetheless, this will remain a potential material weakness until such activities have been fully integrated.


Managements Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting.  


Management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the Securities Exchange Act, as amended. Internal control over financial reporting refers to a process designed by, or under the supervision of, our Chief Executive/Interim Chief Financial, and Chief Operating Officers, effected by our Board, management and other personnel, to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial


14



reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in connection with GAAP, including those policies and procedures that:

 

-

pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of our assets;

 


 

 

-

provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that our receipts and expenditures are being made only in accordance with authorizations of our management and directors; and

 


 

 

-

provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of our assets that could have a material effect on our consolidated financial statements.


Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting cannot provide absolute assurance of the prevention or detection of misstatements. In addition, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.


In connection with the preparation of this Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended April 30, 2012, management, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer/Interim Chief Financial Officer, and Chief Operating Officer, have evaluated the effectiveness of our internal controls over financial reporting, pursuant to Rule 13a-15 under the Exchange Act, as of April 30, 2012 in order to determine the potential for or the existence of material weaknesses, defined as a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting, such that there is a reasonable possibility a material misstatement of the company's annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis. Our Chief Executive, Chief Financial, and Chief Operating Officer, have concluded the design and operation of our internal controls and procedures are not effective as of April 30, 2012. As a result, the following aspects of the Company were noted as potential material weaknesses:


1.

Although they have communicated to their employees, Management has not fully developed its accounting policies and procedures as a result of its present size and staffing.  In addition, no Director of the Board of Directors qualifies as an Audit Committee Financial expert as defined in Item 407(d)(5)(ii) of Regulation S-B which may therefore, constitute a material weakness.


Because of these material weaknesses, Management has concluded the Company did not maintain effective internal control over financial reporting as of April 30, 2012, based on the criteria established in "Internal Control-Integrated Framework" issued by the COSO, criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO) in Internal Control-Integrated Framework.  It is the intention of the present Management to continue to study and establish COSO Control-Integrated Framework within Nuvilex during the coming year as we begin to expand our present number of personnel and activities.


There were no significant changes previously in our internal controls over financial reporting that occurred during the fourth fiscal quarter that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal controls over financial reporting.

 

This Annual Report on Form 10-K does not include an attestation report of the Companys independent registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting. Managements report was not subject to attestation by our registered public accounting firm pursuant to temporary rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission that permit us to provide only managements report in this Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Compliance With Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act

The Company does not have a class of securities registered pursuant to Section 12 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.


17



Accordingly, the Company's executive officers and directors and persons who own more than 10% of its equity securities are not subject to the beneficial ownership reporting requirements of Section 16(a) of that Act. However, although not required, certain of such persons voluntarily file beneficial ownership reports with the Securities and Exchange Commission.


Code of Ethics and Corporate Policies


Nuvilex has created and adopted a Code of Ethics and Corporate Policy.  Since its inception, the policy has been updated and the current policy is presented below:


In all societies, the opportunity to be a successful member of the community is an important role we must all be a part of.  Any company must, therefore, understand its critical role and how to be a good member of that community. Like a three-legged stool, of which all three legs must exist in order for it to stand, we at Nuvilex see three critical components for our success and ability to be a good member of our community at large, both here and abroad: The Company, Investors & Shareholders, and our Customers & Patients.  In no particular order do these responsibilities preside, since all are critical, required for success, and important to the Company and our communities in which we reside, work and play.

Therefore, one of those stool legs stands for our responsibility to the Company, including employees, near and far, in house and out, research, development, sales, and marketing members through to our vendors. We recognize their merit and aim for all to engender a sense of well-being and security in their jobs through good working conditions, relationships, and compensation for a job well done and helping them address and fulfill their family responsibilities. Furthermore, there is equal opportunity for employment, development, advancement, and allowance for suggestions to advance the Company. Lastly, we provide management and guidance, through being good leaders and enabling opportunities for redressing issues.

Another leg of the stool stands for the responsibility to our investors and stockholders.  Although the Company must experiment with new ideas and plans, it is tantamount to being successful, for through our success, we are able to return this to our investors and shareholders, without whom we would not exist as a Company.  We will therefore, utilize research as a means to an end, developing innovative programs and advancing the state of the Company as a result, with the clear intention to ensure success and appreciation of those who believe in us and in our dreams, research, plans and our provision of ultimately useful products for the community.

The final leg of the stool represents how we must always be cognizant of those who use our products and services.  In meeting their needs, everything we do should be designed with the highest quality in mind so as to ensure a valuable end product for those for whom we ultimately work, our customers and patients.

These services may include audit services, audit-related services, tax services and other services as allowed by law or regulation. Pre-approval is generally provided for up to one year and any pre-approval is detailed as to the particular service or category of services and is generally subject to a specifically approved amount.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM





THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS AND SHAREHOLDERS OF NUVILEX, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES


SCOTTSDALE, ARIZONA



We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheet of Nuvilex Inc. and Subsidiaries as of April 30, 2011 and the related consolidated statements of operations, stockholders' equity (deficit), and cash flows for the year then ended. These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on our audits.


We conducted our audit 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. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audit included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Companys internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. 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 audit provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.


In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Nuvilex Inc. and Subsidiaries as of April 30, 2011 and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the year then ended in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.


The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 2 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company has suffered recurring losses from operations. This raises substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. Management's plans in regard to these matters are described in Note 2. These consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

NUVILEX, INC.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

DECEMBER 31, 2012 AND 2011




NOTE 1 - BACKGROUND, ACQUISTION PURCHASE PRICE AND LIQUIDITY


This summary of accounting policies for Nuvilex, Inc. and Subsidiaries is presented to assist in understanding the Company's consolidated financial statements. The accounting policies conform to generally accepted accounting principles and have been consistently applied in the preparation of the consolidated financial statements.

History of the Company

The Company was founded as DJH International, Inc., a Nevada corporation, on October 28, 1996, changing its name to eFoodSafety.com, Inc. following the October 16, 2000 acquisition of Global Procurement Systems, Inc. The Company acquired Ozone Safe Food, Inc. for Common Stock on October 29, 2003. The Companys early mission provided methods and products to ensure safety of marketed fruits and vegetables worldwide. On February 4, 2004, the Company registered shares with the Securities and Exchange Commission and its Common Stock began publicly trading on the OTC Bulletin Board under the trading symbol EFSF. The Company did not issue shares of Common Stock pursuant to an initial public offering. With less than projected demand for its produce sterilization methods and software tracking products, the Company changed its strategy and acquired Knock-Out Technologies, Ltd. and MedElite, Inc. in May 2004 and August 2005, respectively, of which Knock-Out Technologies, Ltd. was a developer of products using organic, non-toxic, food based substances and MedElite, Inc. was the exclusive U.S. distributor of TalsynTM-CI Scar Cream (Talsyn), a topical scar- reducing cream. The Companys strategy was to bring to market scientifically derived products. The Company sold its Ozone Safe Food, Inc. operations in August 2005. In November 2006, the Company formed Cinnergen, Inc., a wholly-owned subsidiary, to manufacture and market a non-prescription liquid nutritional supplement designed to promote healthy glucose metabolism, and purEffect, Inc., another wholly-owned subsidiary, to manufacture and market purEffectTM, a four-step non-prescription acne treatment. On March 10, 2006, the Company licensed the marketing rights for purEffectTM to Charlston Kentrist 41 Direct, Inc. (CK41). In July 2007, I-Boost, Inc., a wholly-owned subsidiary was formed to market products to support the immune system. In March 2008, Cinnechol, Inc. became a wholly-owned subsidiary to promote cardiovascular health. In February 2009, the Company sold the rights to the purEffectTM product to CK41 for an equity position in CK41 and future royalty compensation. In March 2009, Freedom2 Holdings, Inc. was acquired to manufacture and market products including Infinitink®, a permanent tattoo ink designed to be removed more easily using conventional laser light. The Company changed its name to Nuvilex, Inc. on March 18, 2009 as part of the process.


NOTE 2 - Going Concern and Management's Plans

The Company's financial statements are prepared using accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAP) applicable to a going concern which contemplates the realization of assets and liquidation of liabilities in the normal course of business. The Company has not yet established an ongoing source of revenue sufficient to cover its operating costs and allow it to continue as a going concern. In addition, as of April 30, 2012, the Company had an accumulated deficit of $39,848,005, had incurred a net loss for the year ended April 30, 2012 of $1,899,312and had negative working capital of $2,728,628.Funding has been provided by the Companys CEO, Dr. Robert Ryan as well as old and new investors committed to make it possible to maintain, expand, and ensure the advancement of Nuvilex and help the Company see one of its visions through to providing a pancreatic cancer treatment in the future. Furthermore, although the Companys current business plan includes funding requirements beyond the anticipated cash flows from operations, we continue to acquire such funds as the Company moves forward toward its pancreatic cancer treatment and the numerous other opportunities being advanced at this point. These factors raise potential doubt as to the Company's ability to continue as a going concern.  We at Nuvilex are nonetheless committed to working with the myriad of personnel and interested investors to ensure our success.


F-8


Strategy

The Company has been in existence for more than a decade.  During this time many different products were brought into the Company with the intention to work toward seeing them become household names and products.  Several of these products have become well used, but the challenge with all products is to make them well recognized, useful, important, and valuable enough that the everyday consumers use them without fail.  On a daily basis, the Company receives different inquiries for the Nuvilex products.  As a result, the overall Company structure of Nuvilex has changed in many ways over the years.  From those humble beginnings we are now working to move this Company forward into a modern one with clarity and vision.  

Since June 2011, we have been working with the Chief Executives of Austrianova Singapore Private Limited (Austrianova Singapore or ASPL), previously assets of SG Austria Private Limited or SG Austria across a wide swath of areas.  Much of the effort has been on establishing plans for our future.  Therefore, and in conjunction with maintenance of the company, funding has been provided to ASPL and its personnel in order to ensure ASPLs functionality and maintain its ability to accomplish numerous goals over the year.  After many months worth of accomplishments and planning and upon completion of our fiscal year in April 2012, Nuvilex and ASPL finally were able to bring ASPL onboard as one of its subsidiaries.  This first vision has been noted as one of the most valuable advances for this company, enabling the creation of a biotechnology/life technology company.  Unlike most companies of this type and entirely due to the Companys extensive array of products already in-house, Nuvilex exists as a Biotech Company with a broad company base, much like that of larger biotechnology or pharmaceutical companies after years of advances and purchasing of products from the outside.  Thus, with an overall goal of long-term growth, the Company is poised to be thrust into a very different position, particularly as a result of the stabilizing of its financial condition that has been occurring over the past year.

Management believes its vision to become an important industry-leading Biotechnology company, with a multi-part strategy like those of larger pharmaceutical companies will strengthen the Companys position in both the short and long term.  Notwithstanding and as the financial experts accurately point out, Nuvilex may seek to raise capital to fund growth opportunities and provide for its working capital needs as the vision of the company is executed.  The Companys efforts to achieve financial stability and enable carrying out the strategy of the company include several primary components:


1. Continued elimination of prior operation-associated debt from the Parent Company and all subsidiaries;


2. Advance and develop the biotechnology through ongoing research;


3. Acquisition of new contracts utilizing the biotechnology;


 4. Expand and Market products and their uses



NOTE 3 Significant Accounting Policies Principles of Consolidation


The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Nuvilex, Inc. and its subsidiaries, Knock-Out Technologies, Ltd., MedElite, Inc., Cinnergen, Inc., I-Boost, Inc., Cinnechol Inc., Freedom-2 GmbH, Berlin, Freedom-2 Creditor Partners, Freedom-2 Holdings, Inc, Freedom-2, Inc., Exceptional Equipment and Ink Supply Company, Inc. With respect to the latter three subsidiaries the financials include the profit and loss activity from the date of purchase March 2, 2009 to April 30, 2012 as the acquisition was accounted for under the purchase method of accounting.


All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated or have been denoted as loans from one company to the other.


Cash and Cash Equivalents


For purposes of the statement of cash flows, the Company considers all highly liquid debt instruments purchased with a maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents to the extent the funds are not being held for investment purposes. There were no cash equivalents as of April 30, 2012 or 2011.


Inventories


Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or market. Cost is computed on a weighted-average basis, which approximates the first-in, first-out method; market is based upon estimated replacement costs.




F-9



Use of Estimates


The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles 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 period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.


Property and Equipment


Property and equipment are stated at cost. Expenditures that increase the useful lives or capacities of the plant and equipment are capitalized. Expenditures for repairs and maintenance are charged to income as incurred. Depreciation is provided using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives as follows:


Computer equipment - 3 years

Furniture and fixtures - 7 years

Machinery and equipment - 7 years

Building improvements - 15 years

Building - 40 years


Goodwill and other indefinite-lived intangibles


The Company records the excess of purchase price over the fair value of the identifiable net assets acquired as goodwill and other indefinite-lived intangibles. The FASB standard on goodwill and other intangible assets, prescribes a two-step process for impairment testing of goodwill and indefinite-lived intangibles, which is performed annually, as well as when an event triggering impairment may have occurred. The first step tests for impairment, while the second step, if necessary, measures the impairment. The Company has elected to perform its annual analysis at the end of its reporting year.


Valuation of long-lived assets


The Company accounts for the valuation of long-lived assets under the FASB standard for accounting for the impairment or disposal of Long-Lived Assets. The FASB standard requires that long-lived assets and certain identifiable intangible assets be reviewed for impairment whenever events or circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Recoverability of the long-lived assets is measured by a comparison of the carrying amount of the asset to future undiscounted net cash flows generated by the asset. If such assets are considered to be impaired, the impairment to be recognized is measured by the amount by which the carrying amount of the assets exceeds the estimated fair value of the assets. Assets to be disposed of are reported at the lower of the carrying amount or fair value, less cost to sell.  



Basic and Diluted Earnings (Loss) per Share


Basic and diluted earnings per share is calculated using the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period without consideration of the dilutive effect of convertible notes and convertible preferred shares.


Fair value of financial instruments


For certain of the Companys non-derivative financial instruments, including cash, receivables, accounts payable, and other accrued liabilities, the carrying amount approximates fair value due to the short-term maturities of these instruments.  The estimated fair value of long-term debt is based primarily on borrowing rates currently available to the Company for similar debt issues.  The fair value approximates the carrying value of long-term debt.


ASC Topic 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures, requires disclosure of the fair value of financial instruments held by the Company. ASC Topic 825, Financial Instruments, defines fair value, and establishes a three-level valuation hierarchy for disclosures of fair value measurement that enhances disclosure requirements for fair value measures.  The carrying amounts reported in the consolidated balance sheets for receivables and current liabilities each qualify as financial instruments and are a reasonable estimate of their fair values because of the short period of time between the origination of such instruments and their expected realization and their current market rate of interest. The three levels of valuation hierarchy are defined as follows:




 

F-10



·

Level 1. Observable inputs such as quoted prices in active markets;

·

Level 2. Inputs, other than the quoted prices in active markets, that are observable either directly or indirectly; and

·

Level 3. Unobservable inputs in which there is little or no market data, which require the reporting entity to develop its own assumptions.


The following presents the gross value of assets and liabilities that were measured and recognized at fair value.

·

Level 1: none

·

Level 2: none

·

Level 3: none


Effective October 1, 2008, the Company adopted Accounting Standards Codification subtopic 820-10, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures ("ASC 820-10") and Accounting Standards Codification subtopic 825-10, Financial Instruments ("ASC 825-10"), which permits entities to choose to measure many financial instruments and certain other items at fair value. Neither of these statements had an impact on the Company's financial position, results of operations or cash flows. The carrying value of cash, accounts payable and accrued expenses, as reflected in the balance sheets, approximate fair value because of the short-term maturity of these instruments.


As of April 30, 2012 the Company has recorded several of its assets and liabilities at fair value. The building held for sale was written down in the last quarter of fiscal 2010 to its fair value based upon a pending sale agreement. Although the agreement was not finalized it established the current market value for the property (refer to Note 7).  In March of 2009 through the acquisition of another company the Company acquired certain debt. As part of the acquisition these liabilities were evaluated by a third party and valued at fair value at which they were recorded. As a result of this the Company is amortizing the associated discount and premium for two of the liabilities (refer to Note 9).

Recent Accounting Pronouncements


In September 2011 Accounting Standards Update No. 2011-08, Intangibles - Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): Testing Goodwill for impairment. This ASU's objective is to simplify the process of performing impairment testing for Goodwill. With this update a company is allowed to asses qualitative factors, first, to determine if it is more likely than not (greater than 50%) that the FV is less than the carrying amount. This would be done, prior to performing the two-step goodwill impairment testing, as prescribed by Topic 350.  Prior to this ASU, all entities were required to test, annually, their good will for impairment by Step 1 - comparing the FV to the carrying amount, and if impaired, then step 2 - calculate and recognize the impairment. Therefore, the fair value measurement is not required, until the "more likely than not" reasonableness test is concluded. Effective for annual and interim goodwill impairment tests performed for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2011.



In May 2011, FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2011-04, Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820): Amendments to Achieve Common Fair Value Measurement and Disclosure Requirements in U.S. GAAP and IFRSs.    This ASU clarifies the board's intent of current guidance, modifies and changes certain guidance and principles, and adds additional disclosure requirements concerning the 3 levels of fair value measurements. Specific amendments are applied to FASB ASC 820-10-35, Subsequent Measurement and FASB ASC 820-10-50, Disclosures. This ASU is effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2011.


In June 2011, FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2011-05, Comprehensive Income (Topic 220): Presentation of Comprehensive Income. - ASU 2011-05. Current US GAAP allows companies to present the components of comprehensive income as a part of the statement of changes in stockholders' equity. This ASU eliminates that option. in this Update, an entity has the option to present the total of comprehensive income, the components of net income, and the components of other comprehensive income either in a single continuous statement of comprehensive income or in two separate but consecutive statements. In both choices, an entity is required to present each component of net income along with total net income, each component of other comprehensive income along with a total for other comprehensive income, and a total amount for comprehensive income This ASU is effective interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2011.  This ASU should be applied retrospectively.



F-11


 

In December 2010, the FASB Accounting Standards Update 2010-29 Business Combinations Topic 805, which requires a public entity to disclose pro forma information for business combinations that occurred in the current reporting period. The disclosures include pro forma revenue and earnings of the combined entity for the current reporting period as though the acquisition date for all business combinations that occurred during the year had been as of the beginning of the annual reporting period. If comparative financial statements are presented, the pro forma revenue and earnings of the combined entity for the comparable prior reporting period should be reported as though the acquisition date for all business combinations that occurred during the current year had been as of the beginning of the comparable prior annual reporting period. Effective for business combinations for which the acquisition date is on or after the beginning of the first annual reporting period beginning on or after December 15, 2010.


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


Revenue Recognition

Sales of products and related costs of products sold are recognized when (i) persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, (ii) delivery has occurred, (iii) the price is fixed or determinable, and (iv) collectability is reasonably assured. These terms are typically met upon the prepayment or invoicing and shipment of products.


Allowance for Doubtful Accounts


The Company provides an allowance for estimated uncollectible accounts receivable balances based on historical experience and the aging of the related accounts receivable.


Income Taxes


Deferred taxes are calculated using the liability method whereby deferred tax assets are recognized for deductible temporary differences and operating loss and tax credit carry forwards and deferred tax liabilities are recognized for taxable temporary differences. Temporary differences are the differences between the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and their tax bases.  Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance when, in the opinion of management, it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are adjusted for the effects of changes in tax laws and rates on the date of enactment.

In June 2006, the FASB interpreted its standard for accounting for uncertainty in income taxes, an interpretation of accounting for income taxes.  This interpretation clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in an entitys financial statements in accordance the minimum recognition threshold and measurement attributable to a tax position taken on a tax return is required to be met before being recognized in the financial statements.


The FASBs interpretation had no material impact on the Companys financial statements for the year ended April 30, 2012. As of April 30, 2012, the Company had a net operating loss carry forward for income tax reporting purposes of approximately $35,841,600 that may be offset against future taxable income through 2027. Current tax laws limit the amount of loss available to be offset against future taxable income when a substantial change in ownership occurs. Therefore, the amount available to offset future taxable income may be limited. No tax benefit has been reported in the financial statements, because the Company believes there is a 50% or greater chance the carry forwards will expire unused. Accordingly, the potential tax benefits of the loss carry forwards are offset by a valuation allowance of the same amount.


Research and Development Costs


Expenditures for research and development are expensed as incurred. Such costs are required to be expensed until the point that technological feasibility is established.


Concentration of Credit Risk


The Company has no significant off-balance-sheet concentrations of credit risk such as foreign exchange contracts, options contracts or other foreign hedging arrangements. The Company maintains the majority of its cash balances with one financial institution in the form of demand deposits.


Reclassifications


Certain items in the prior year financial statements have been reclassified for comparative purposes to conform to the presentation in the current periods presentation. These reclassifications have no effect on the previously reported income (loss).


NOTE 4 ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE


The Company recognizes receivables predominately on sales of its Cinnergen product.  At April 30, 2012 the company recorded an allowance for doubtful accounts of $6,497.


NOTE 5 INVENTORY


At April 30, 2012 and 2011, inventory consisted of $6,846 and $18,706, respectively, of finished goods and raw material inventory for Cinnergen products. Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or market. Cost is computed on a weighted-average basis, which approximates the first-in, first-out method; market is based upon estimated replacement costs.

NOTE 7 - ASSETS HELD FOR SALE


In accordance with the authoritative guidance of the Financial Accounting Standards Board, assets held for sale are reported at the lower of the carrying amount or fair value less cost to sell and the recognition of depreciation expense is discontinued. On June 23, 2008, Freedom-2 Holdings, Inc., entered into a Sale Agreement for its Cherry Hill facility, which was agreed to and then was rescinded by the purchaser.  In 2009 with one potential buyer and then again another on February 16, 2010, Freedom-2 Holdings, Inc., entered into a $1,150,000 Sale Agreement for its Cherry Hill facility which, from information stated to management, was not agreed to by the mortgage holder. Although neither of the latter Sale Agreements were ever finalized, they established a fair market value less than the book value for Freedom-2 Holdings, Inc.s building and building improvements. Generally accepted accounting procedures require Freedom-2 Holdings, Inc. to adjust the value of its fixed asset to fair market value. Therefore, Freedom-2 Holdings, Inc., and as a result, Nuvilex, have adjusted and reclassified the value of Freedom-2 Holdings, Inc.s building and building improvements to fixed assets held for sale in the amount of $1,081,000 ($1,150,000 less $69,000 in estimated real estate commission) as of April 30, 2010 and has recorded a loss for impairment of $1,197,779 for the year ending April 30, 2010. For the year ended April 30, 2011 the Company obtained a third party fair market assessment of the building for Freedom-2 Holdings, Inc., which resulted in no further impairment.  The Company and Cornerstone Bank were in discussion together and had come to an agreement on the terms in February 2012 prior to the April 30, 2012 fiscal year end, the Company and Cornerstone Bank reached an agreement in principle on terms for settlement of the litigation (the "Settlement Agreement") referenced in Item 3, regarding Legal Proceedings and further described in Note 11. Shortly after the close of the April 30, 2012 fiscal year, settlement documents were prepared and signed and the parties are currently in the process of effecting the Settlement, part of which involves transferring the property to Cornerstone Bank to be sold by the same, with the net proceeds being applied to reduce the Company's Obligations, as defined in the Settlement Agreement.

NOTE 10 PREFERRED STOCK

Series E Preferred Stock has, among others, the following features:


· Series E Preferred Shares will not bear any dividends.


· Each share of Series E Preferred Stock is entitled to receive its share of assets distributable upon the liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the affairs of the Company. The holders of the Series E Preferred Shares shall be entitled to receive in cash out of the assets of the Company before any amount shall be paid to the holders of any capital stock of the Company of any class junior in rank to the Series E Preferred Shares.


· Each share of Series E Preferred Stock is convertible, at the holders option, into shares of Common Stock, at the average Closing Bid Price of the Companys common stock for five (5) trading days prior to the Conversion Date.


· At every meeting of stockholders, every holder of Series E Preferred Stock is entitled to 50,000 votes for each share of Series E Preferred Stock in his name, with the same and identical voting rights as a holder of a share of Common Stock; therefore, the holder of the preferred stock can effectively increase the Company issued Common Stock shares without a vote of the Common Stock shareholders thus enabling any potential shortfall of authorized common shares outstanding from being covered should the Preferred Stockholders wish to convert.

 F-17


On March 1, 2011, the Company issued 3,500 shares of preferred stock to a shareholder for an $80,000 loan that was made to the company. Based on prior year issuance of preferred stock, the original valuation was $50.00/share and since the valuation of the preferred stock for this loan was set to $80,000 per 3,500 shares or $22.86/share, the Company has recorded a loss on conversion of debt of $95,000 for year ending April 30, 2011.


The average Closing Bid Price at April 30, 2011 was $0.03. Based on the Series E Preferred Stock provisions, if converted on April 30, 2011, the outstanding 3,500 Series E Preferred Shares would have converted into 2,666,667 shares of the Companys common stock.



Under the terms of the Series E Stock Certificate, the holders have specific rights to be paid in cash out of the assets of the Company prior to any junior class shares.  As a result of the obligations for Series E preferred shares, the Company has determined these redemption features have the potential to be outside the control of the Company, and accordingly, the Company has classified the Series E shares outside of shareholders equity in accordance with ASC 480 regarding instruments with debt and equity features.  Thus, the full value for the convertible Preferred Stock was recorded outside of stockholders equity in the accompanying consolidated balance sheet.  


NOTE 11 LEGAL PROCEEDINGS


In July 2011 a claim was filed by Cornerstone Bank (Cornerstone) against Freedom-2, Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, for amounts due under a promissory note (the Note), in the original principal amount of $1.6 million (collectively the Indebtedness). The bank also sought to foreclose its mortgage on the property securing the Note, which is located in Cherry Hill, New Jersey (the Property). Given the passage of time and the Company having made no payments toward the Indebtedness for several years, as of May 2012, the amount due was approximately $2.0 million.

The Company recently resolved all matters related to Cornerstones claims (the Settlement) and is in the process of effecting the Settlement, as follows: (i) the parties stipulate to judgment in the amount of the Indebtedness, with a stay of execution for 2 years pending the Company satisfying the Indebtedness in any of several ways, including direct payments of cash and discounts of up to 30% for early payments, or a combination thereof; (ii) the Company conveys the Property to Cornerstone, which will sell the Property and apply the net proceeds to reduce the Indebtedness (in the event the Property is not sold and the Indebtedness satisfied as otherwise described herein, the Property will be reconveyed to the Company); and (iii) the Company reaffirms the pledge of 14,605,614 shares of the Companys common stock as security for payment of the Indebtedness (the Stock Collateral), which can be liquidated by Cornerstone from time to time in accordance with a SEC Rule 10b5-1 plan, with the proceeds being applied to reduce the Indebtedness and with any excess Stock Collateral being returned to the Company upon payment of the Indebtedness in full.

NOTE 12 RELATED PARTY TRANSACTION

On February 11, 2009, the Company and Charlston Kentrist 41 Direct, Inc. (CK-41) restructured its Marketing Agreement (the restructured agreement) surrounding purEffect, an acne treatment system. Under the terms of the restructured agreement, the Company will transfer all of its rights to purEffect to CK-41 for four million two hundred-fifty thousand (4,250,000) shares of CK-41 common stock at the price of $0.01 per share. CK-41 will also grant the Company a three-year warrant to purchase an additional four million two hundred-fifty thousand (4,250,000) shares of common stock at $6.00 per share. Additionally, the Company will receive a two percent (2%) royalty on worldwide purEffect adjusted net sales. The restructured agreement set minimum royalty payments of one hundred-fifty thousand ($150,000) dollars payable March 1, 2010 and two hundred-fifty thousand ($250,000) dollars payable on March 1, 2011.  In addition to these royalty payments, a one hundred thousand ($100,000) dollar late penalty is due if not paid by the appropriate due date.  The Company was also guaranteed to hold one seat on the Board of Directors of CK-41.  In the event royalty payments are not paid in full, the agreement has a full product recall right, that Nuvilex can, at its option, recall the product, advertising, and all other aspects of purEffect  treatment spent or accumulated to date, back to Nuvilex.  This would then allow Nuvilex the opportunity to develop purEffect from that point forward.  As of April 30, 2011, CK-41 remains delinquent in its payments and the associated penalties. Accordingly, the Company has no assurance this royalty payment will be made for the purEffect product and is considering appropriate activities as a result.

Nuvilex will continue current funding of $60,000 monthly in operating capital until the overall funding is completed.
