NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED (UNAUDITED) FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
 
 
NOTE 1:    CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared by Seychelle Environmental Technologies, Inc., and subsidiary (the “Company”) without audit.  In the opinion of management, all adjustments (which include only normal recurring adjustments) necessary to present fairly the financial position, results of operations, and cash flows at August 31, 2011, and for all periods presented herein, have been made.

Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America have been condensed or omitted.  It is suggested that these condensed financial statements be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s February 28, 2011 audited financial statements.  The results of operations for the periods ended August 31, 2011 and 2010 are not necessarily indicative of the operating results for the full years.

The summary of significant accounting policies of the Company is presented to assist in understanding the Company’s financial statements. The financial statements and notes are representations of the Company’s management, which is responsible for their integrity and objectivity. These accounting policies conform to accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and have been consistently applied in the preparation of the condensed consolidated financial statements and the February 28, 2011 financials included in the 10-K filed on May 31, 2011.

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

The Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) has issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) 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 represents the converged guidance of the FASB and the IASB (the Boards) on fair value measurement. The collective efforts of the Boards and their staffs, reflected in ASU 2011-04, have resulted in common requirements for measuring fair value and for disclosing information about fair value measurements, including a consistent meaning of the term “fair value.” The Boards have concluded the common requirements will result in greater comparability of fair value measurements presented and disclosed in financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP and IFRSs.

The amendments in this ASU are to be applied prospectively. For public entities, the amendments are effective during interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2011. Early application by public entities is not permitted.  The Company has not yet determined the potential impact on its future consolidated financial statements.

NOTE 2:    INCOME PER SHARE

Basic income (loss) per common share is computed by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during each period.  Diluted net income (loss) per share is computed by using the treasury stock method and dividing net income (loss) by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period after giving effect to all potentially dilutive common stock, consisting of stock warrants.

The denominator for diluted income per share for the period ended August 31, 2011 is adjusted to include the effect of dilutive common stock equivalents, consisting of warrants totaling 3,078,989 and 2,971,844 for the three and six month periods ended August 31, 2011, respectively.  The denominator for diluted income per share for the period ended August 31, 2010 is adjusted to include the effect of dilutive common stock equivalents, consisting of warrants totaling 4,358,524 and 4,354,511 for the three and six month periods ended August 31, 2010, respectively.  Common stock equivalents consisting of 1,809,721 warrants were considered but were not included in the computation of income per share for the each of the three and six month periods ended August 31, 2010, because they would have been anti-dilutive.

NOTE 3:   STOCKHOLDERS’ EQUITY
 
Common Stock
During the six-month period ended August 31, 2011, the Company issued 50,000 shares of restricted common stock to a consultant for services rendered, valued at $15,500 based on the estimated fair value of the common stock on the date of the grant which is included in stock-based compensation. No shares of restricted stock were issued during the quarter ended August 31, 2011.

The Company purchased 100,000 shares of common stock at a cost of $25,000 during the quarter ended August 31, 2011 which were placed in the treasury and recorded at cost.
 
Contributed Executive Services
The President of the Company elected not to accept his salary until the Company has become profitable. Although the Company has achieved profitable operations, he continued to not accept his salary.

The Company has determined the estimated value of warrants granted using the Black-Scholes pricing model.

Revenues. Our customer concentration is constantly changing, which contributes to much of the fluctuation in revenues.  The current period increase in revenues is primarily due to sales to two customers who accounted for approximately $659,000 of the increase, accounting for 65% of revenues in the three-month period ended August 31, 2011 compared to 46% in the same period ended August 31, 2010.  There was also a $24,000 increase in website sales for the three-month period ended August 31, 2011 compared to the same period in the prior year as more and more customers are discovering this means of purchasing our product.  The increase in sales is also the net result of a shift in our product mix.  Significant increases were experienced within a few product lines: missionary packs (which increased to $284,000 in the current quarter as compared to $163,000 in sales for the comparable period), pitchers (to $413,000 from $97,000), and bottles (to $364,000 from $220,000).  The increase in missionary packs is due to orders from a couple of the Company’s larger customers changing the items they order.  A missionary pack consists of a plastic filter bottle and a replacement filter.  
 
Cost of revenues and gross profit percentage. The increase in cost of revenues is largely a direct result of the 116% increase in sales for the three-month period ended August 31, 2011 from the comparable period in the prior year.  Cost of revenues only increased by 95% from period to period by comparison, resulting in an increase in gross profit margin to 50% from 44%.  Our profit margin will fluctuate from time to time based on the product mix within sales.   As mentioned in the sales discussion, a large reason for the increase in sales was a $121,000 increase in sales of the missionary pack versus prior year.  The missionary pack results in a higher margin per unit than many of our other products.  We are continuing to pursue efficiencies in the production process and are negotiating for better filter prices and believe that gross margins will improve further if we are successful in these plans and will be able to reduce the impact of the lower margin products will have on the product mix.
 
Selling, general and administrative  expenses.  These expenses increased by approximately $211,000, or 77%, during the three months ended August 31, 2011 compared to the same period ended in the prior year.  Selling expenses increased approximately $53,000, or 128%, compared to the same period in 2010.  This is due to the increase in sales.  The expenses represented 6.2% and 5.9% of sales for the three months ended August 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively.   Not all sales are commissionable, and the increase in selling expenses as a percentage of sales is largely a direct result of the increase in commissionable sales to two significant customers.  We expect sales commissions to be approximately 6% of sales for the remainder of fiscal year 2011.  General and administrative expenses increased approximately $158,000 when compared to the comparable period in the prior year.  Significant components of the increase are gift and bonus expense to reward performance for a profitable year in 2011 (to $40,900 for 2011 compared to $11,400 for 2010), merchant fee expense (to $10,700 compared to $5,400, printing expense (to $19,100 compared to $5,300, outside services (to $28,600 compared to $13,700, and consulting fees ($145,000 compared to $62,600). We expect only a slight increase in general and administrative expenses for the remainder of fiscal 2011 as we expand to handle the growth of our sales.

Depreciation and amortization expense.  The decrease in depreciation and amortization expense is due to some assets becoming fully depreciated as well as a reduction in the amount of molds we currently have due to change in the product design.

Income tax expense.  Income tax expense increased due to California disallowing the net loss carry-forward and a decrease in the deferred tax asset, resulting in $48,966 during the quarter.

Net Income. Net income for the three-month period ended August 31, 2011 was $188,300 compared to net income of $17,412 for the three-month period ended August 31, 2010.  This was primarily due to the slight decrease in cost of goods sold as a percentage of sales, partially offset by the increases in operating expenses as discussed above. The net income can be improved when larger sales orders begin coming in for the larger volume products and as noted previously, out-source the production to a high volume assembler/fulfillment vendor we have established a relationship with to do this for us.  The introduction of the radiological filter will add to the net income in the coming months as  $25,000 in orders  has already being received for it in the US.  Another new product being finalized will add even more to the bottom line.

Revenues. Our customer concentration is constantly changing, which contributes to much of the fluctuation in revenues.  The current period increase in revenues is largely due to sales to two customers who accounted for approximately $1,203,000 of the increase, accounting for 62% of revenues in the six-month period ended August 31, 2011 compared to 46% in the same period ended August 31, 2010.  This was partially offset by another significant customer who accounted for a decrease of approximately $206,000.  This customer accounted for 15% of sales in the prior year but only 3% in the current year.  There was also a $204,000 increase in website sales for the six-month period ended August 31, 2011 compared to the same period in the prior year as more and more customers are discovering this means of purchasing our product.  The increase in sales is also the net result of a shift in our product mix.  Significant changes were experienced within a few product lines: missionary packs (which decreased to $456,000 in the current quarter as compared to $643,000 in sales for the comparable period), pitchers (which increased to $1,052,000 from $248,000), and bottles (which decreased to $671,000 from $819,000).  The increase in pitchers, and decrease in mission packs, and bottle sales is due to sales fluctuations to one of the Company’s customers.   There were also increased revenues from the introduction of new product lines, such as the Aqua Mist and shower lines, which combined for $129,000 of current year revenue as compared to zero in the comparable period of the prior year.

Cost of revenues and gross profit percentage. The increase in cost of revenues is largely a direct result of the 72% increase in sales for the six-month period ended August 31, 2011 from the comparable period in the prior year.  Cost of revenues increased by 88% from period to period by comparison, resulting in a decrease in gross profit margin to 47% from 52%.  Our profit margin will fluctuate from time to time based on the product mix within sales.   As mentioned in the sales discussion, a large reason for the increase in sales was an $804,000 increase in sales of pitchers compared to the same period in the prior year, partially offset by an $187,000 decrease in sales of missionary packs.  The sales of pitchers typically result in a lower margin per unit than most of the Company’s other product lines, while the sales of missionary packs typically result in a higher margin per unit than many of our other products.  So the increase in low margin pitcher sales and the decrease in high margin missionary pack sales combined to cause a decline in margin percentages for the period.  As noted in the 3 month period ended August 31, 2011, discussion of gross margins  are continuing to pursue efficiencies in the production process and are negotiating for better filter prices and believe that gross margins will improve further if we are successful in these plans.  
 
Selling, general and administrative  expenses.  These expenses increased by approximately $497,000, or 108%, during the six months ended August 31, 2011 compared to the same period ended in the prior year.  Selling expenses increased approximately $122,000, or 167%, compared to the same period in 2010.  This is due to the increase in sales.  The expenses represented 6.1% and 3.8% of sales for the six months ended August 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively.   Not all sales are commissionable, and the increase in selling expenses as a percentage of sales is largely a direct result of the increase in commissionable sales to two significant customers.  We expect sales commissions to be approximately 6% of sales for the remainder of fiscal year 2011.  General and administrative expenses increased approximately $375,000 when compared to the comparable period in the prior year.  Significant components of the increase are gift and bonus expense to reward performance for a profitable year in 2011 (to $41,700 for 2011 compared to $11,400 for 2010), merchant fee expense (to $25,300 compared to $11,000, printing expense (to $36,400 compared to $15,800, outside services (to $64,200 compared to $19,000, and consulting fees ($301,500 compared to $104,800).  The increases in outside services and consulting fees are due primarily to website orders being filled by outside fulfillment center and an increase in labor required to fulfill incoming orders. We expect only a slight increase in general and administrative expenses for the remainder of fiscal 2011 as we expand to handle the growth of our sales.
 
Depreciation and amortization expense.  The decrease in depreciation and amortization expense is due to some assets becoming fully depreciated as well as a reduction in the amount of molds we currently have due to change in the product design.

Income tax expense.  Income tax expense increased due to California disallowing the net loss carryforward and a decrease in the deferred tax asset, resulting in $219,253 during the six-month period.

Net Income. Net income for the six-month period ended August 31, 2011 was $337,615 compared to net income of $490,300 for the six-month period ended August 31, 2010.  This decrease was primarily due to the slight increase in cost of goods sold as a percentage of sales, as well as increases in operating expenses as discussed above.  Comparing apples to apples with net income, it should be noted that before the tax provision, net income was ahead of prior year.  However, with the new products we are launching including the radiological filter which has already  received orders, we expect to more than offset the tax provision on an on-going basis.
 
Liquidity and Capital Resources
 
Net cash provided by operating activities. During the six-month period ended August 31, 2011, the Company funded its operations primarily through proceeds from product sales.  Our accounts receivable, excluding the change in allowances, increased by $132,000 reflecting the growth in sales, while our customer deposits increased by $45,000 also due to the growth in sales.  Net income was impacted by noncash charges for stock-based compensation amounting to $193,000, largely due to warrant amortization.
 
 
15

 
Net cash used in investing activities. During the six-month period ended August 31, 2011, the increase in cash used by investing activities was due to the purchase of $58,300 of property and equipment compared to $32,730 during the same time period in the prior fiscal year.
 
Net cash used in financing activities. The decrease in cash used in financing activities during the six-month period ended August 31, 2011 was largely due to repayment of notes payable and capital lease obligations totaling $78,000 compared to $206,700 in the time period of 2010.
 
Our principal sources of liquidity have historically been funds generated from operating activities and borrowings from the TAM Trust, one of our principal shareholders and borrowing under our line of credit. As of August 31, 2011, the Company has no outstanding borrowings either from TAM Trust or under our line of credit.  The Company believes that despite the increase in sales experienced during the fiscal years ended February 28, 2011 and 2010 and the six-month period ended August 31, 2011, additional funding may still be required from the TAM Trust or other shareholders to handle the growth in sales volume. During April 2010, the TAM Trust committed to providing up to $250,000 in additional funding.
 
As of August 31, 2011, the Company had $1,646,700 in cash and no borrowings outstanding on its line of credit. The line of credit does not contain any limitations on borrowing or any restrictive debt covenants. The Company believes it has liquidity to meet its operating needs through the balance of fiscal 2012.
 
Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
 
The Company’s discussion and analysis of its financial condition and results of operations are based upon its condensed consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The preparation of these condensed consolidated financial statements requires the Company to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities.
 
The Company believes that the estimates, assumptions and judgments involved in the accounting policies described in the “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” section of its most recent fiscal 2011 Annual Report on Form 10-K have the greatest potential impact on its consolidated financial statements, so it considers these to be its critical accounting policies. Because of the uncertainty inherent in these matters, actual results could differ from the estimates the Company uses in applying the critical accounting policies. Certain of these critical accounting policies affect working capital account balances, including the policies for inventory reserves and stock-based compensation. These policies require that the Company make estimates in the preparation of its consolidated financial statements as of a given date.
 
Within the context of these critical accounting policies, the Company is not currently aware of any reasonably likely events or circumstances that would result in materially different amounts being reported.
