OCTILLION CORP. AND SUSIDIARIES
(a development stage company)
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
May 31, 2008
(Expressed in U.S. Dollars)
1. Basis of Presentation and Going Concern Uncertainties
Octillion Corp. (the Company) was incorporated in the State of Nevada on May 5, 1998. The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries, Sungen Energy, Inc. (Sungen) and Octillion Technologies Limited (Octillion Technologies). Sungen was incorporated on July 11, 2006 in the State of Nevada and has no assets and no liabilities. Octillion Technologies was incorporated on April 11, 2007 in the Province of British Columbia, Canada for providing administrative services to the Companys Canada office. All significant inter-company balances and transactions have been eliminated.
Octillion Corp., together with its wholly owned subsidiaries, is a next generation technology incubator focused on the identification, acquisition, development, and commercialization of alternative and renewable energy technologies. Among the Companys current research and development activities is the development of a patent-pending technology that could adapt existing home and office glass windows into ones capable of generating electricity from solar energy without losing significant transparency or requiring major changes in manufacturing infrastructure.
On August 22, 2007, the Company spun off its wholly-owned biotechnology subsidiary, MicroChannel Technologies Corporation (MicroChannel) with the shareholders of the Company. The net assets and results of operations of MicroChannel of the prior period have been reclassified as discontinued operations.
The Company has not generated any revenues and has an accumulated deficit of $6,795,479. The Company has incurred a loss of $4,403,580 during the nine months ended May 31, 2008. In view of these conditions, the ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is in substantial doubt and dependent upon achieving a profitable level of operations and on the ability of the Company to obtain necessary financing to fund ongoing operations. Management believes that its current and future plans enable it to continue as a going concern.
To meet these objectives, the Company completed a private placement of common stock and warrants for gross proceeds of $3,675,000 on February 12, 2008 and continues to seek other sources of financing in order to support existing operations and expand the range and scope of its business. However, there are no assurances that any such financing can be obtained on acceptable terms, if at all. Management believes that actions presently taken to revise the Company's operating and financial requirements provide the opportunity for the Company to continue as a going concern. The Company's ability to achieve these objectives cannot be determined at this time.
These consolidated financial statements do not give effect to any adjustments which would be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern and therefore be required to realize its assets and discharges its liabilities in other than the normal course of business and at amounts different from those reflected in the accompanying consolidated financial statements.
2. Presentation of Interim Information
The accompanying interim unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with Form 10-Q instructions and in the opinion of management contains all adjustments (consisting of only normal recurring adjustments) necessary to present fairly the financial position as of May 31, 2008, and the results of operations and cash flows for the nine months ended May 31, 2008 and May 31, 2007. These results have been determined on the basis of generally accepted accounting principles and practices in the United States and applied consistently as those used in the preparation of the Company's 2007 Annual Report on Form 10-KSB.
Certain information and footnote disclosure normally included in the financial statements presented in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States have been condensed or omitted. It is suggested that the accompanying financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto incorporated in the Company's 2007 Annual Report on Form 10-KSB.

3. New Accounting Pronouncements
In March 2008, the FASB issued SFAS No. 161, "Disclosures about Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities - an amendment to FASB Statement No. 133". SFAS No. 161 is intended to improve financial standards for derivative instruments and hedging activities by requiring enhanced disclosures to enable investors to better understand their effects on an entity's financial position, financial performance, and cash flows. Entities are required to provide enhanced disclosures about: (a) how and why an entity uses derivative instruments; (b) how derivative instruments and related hedged items are accounted for under Statement 133 and its related interpretations; and (c) how derivative instruments and related hedged items affect an entity's financial position, financial performance, and cash flows. It is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2008, with early adoption encouraged. The adoption of this statement is not expected to have a material effect on the Company's future reported financial position or results of operations.
In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 141R, "Business Combinations". This statement replaces SFAS 141 and defines the acquirer in a business combination as the entity that obtains control of one or more businesses in a business combination and establishes the acquisition date as the date that the acquirer achieves control. SFAS 141R requires an acquirer to recognize the assets acquired, the liabilities assumed, and any non-controlling interest in the acquiree at the acquisition date, measured at their fair values as of that date. SFAS 141R also requires the acquirer to recognize contingent consideration at the acquisition date, measured at its fair value at that date. This statement is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning on or after December 15, 2008. Earlier adoption is prohibited. The adoption of this statement is not expected to have a material effect on the Company's future reported financial position or results of operations.
In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 160, "Noncontrolling Interests in Consolidated Financial Statements Liabilities - an Amendment of ARB No. 51". This statement amends ARB 51 to establish accounting and reporting standards for the non-controlling interest in a subsidiary and for the deconsolidation of a subsidiary. This statement is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning on or after December 15, 2008. Earlier adoption is prohibited. The adoption of this statement is not expected to have a material effect on the Company's future reported financial position or results of operations.
In December 2007, the FASB ratified EITF No. 07-1, Accounting for Collaborative Arrangements, that discusses how parties to a collaborative arrangement (which does not establish a legal entity within such arrangement) should account for various activities. The consensus indicates that costs incurred and revenues generated from transactions with third parties (i.e. parties outside of the collaborative arrangement) should be reported by the collaborators on the respective line items in their income statements pursuant to EITF Issue No. 99-19, Reporting Revenue Gross as a Principal Versus Net as an Agent., Additionally, the consensus provides that income statement characterization of payments between the participants in a collaborative arrangement should be based upon existing authoritative pronouncements; analogy to such pronouncements if not within their scope; or a reasonable, rational, and consistently applied accounting policy election. EITF Issue No. 07-1 is effective for financial statements beginning after December 15, 2008 and is to be applied retrospectively to all periods presented for collaborative arrangements existing as of the date of adoption. The Company is evaluating the impact, if any, the adoption of this consensus will have on the results of operations, financial position or cash flows.
In June 2007, the Emerging Issues Task Force of the FASB issued EITF Issue No. 07-3, Accounting for Nonrefundable Advance Payments for Goods or Services to be Used in Future Research and Development Activities, (EITF 07-3) which is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2007. EITF 07-3 requires that nonrefundable advance payments for future research and development activities be deferred and capitalized. Such amounts will be recognized as an expense as the goods are delivered or the related services are performed. The Company does not expect the adoption of EITF 07-3 to have a material impact on the financial results of the Company.
4. Net Loss per Common Share
Basic earnings or loss per share is based on the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the period of the financial statements. Diluted earnings or loss per share are based on the weighted average number of common shares outstanding and dilutive common stock equivalents. All loss per share amounts in the financial statements are basic loss per share because the inclusion of stock options and warrants outstanding would be anti-dilutive. The computation of basic and diluted loss per share is as follows:

5. Option Interest in Solar Energy Conversion Technology
In August 2006, the Company, through its wholly owned subsidiary, Sungen Energy Inc., entered into a Sponsored Research Agreement (Research Agreement) with scientists at the University of Illinois (UOI) for the development of a new patent-pending technology using nanosilicon photovoltaic solar cells that could convert normal home and office glass windows into ones capable of converting solar energy into electricity with limited loss of transparency and minimal changes in manufacturing infrastructure. The process of producing silicon nanoparticles is supported by 10 issued US patents, 7 pending US patents, 2 issued foreign counterpart patents and 19 pending foreign counterpart patents. The period of performance of the Research Agreement is for two years until August 22, 2008 and the Company has to pay $422,818 for the performance of the project, with $2,000 payable upon execution of the agreement (paid), first installment of $27,150 payable on September 23, 2006 (paid) and the remaining 3 of $27,150 each (paid) and 4 of $78,054 each payable every three months thereafter ($156,108 paid and $156,108 accrued).
The Company has the option to enter into a commercial license for the project intellectual property by reimbursement of the related remaining out-of-pocket expenditures incurred by UOI and payment of royalties and fees to be negotiated, which should not exceed 5% and $100,000, respectively.
As of May 31, 2008, the Company has paid $344,763 for the Research Agreement. As the research project has not reached the commercial development stage, the amounts incurred to support the project are expensed.

7. Capital Stock
At May 31, 2008 there were 1,000,000 shares of preferred stock (par value $0.10 per share) authorized, of which no shares were issued and outstanding. The Board of Directors has the authority to issue such stock in one or more series, to fix the number of shares and to fix and determine the relative rights and preferences of the shares of any such series so established to the full extent permitted by the laws of the State of Nevada and the Articles of Incorporation.
On February 12, 2008, the Company consummated the sale an aggregate of 3,675,000 shares of its common stock and Class F Callable Warrants to purchase up to an additional 3,675,000 shares of the Companys common stock for aggregate proceeds of $3,675,000 pursuant to the terms of a Securities Purchase Agreement dated February 8, 2008 with certain institutional and other accredited investors, as defined in Rule 501 of Regulation D promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the Investors).
11
The Class F Callable Warrants are exercisable for a period of three years at an initial exercise price of $1.25 per share beginning on February 12, 2008. The number of shares issuable upon exercise of the Class F Callable Warrants and the exercise price of the Class F Callable Warrants are adjustable in the event of stock splits, combinations and reclassifications, but not in the event of the issuance by the Company of additional securities, unless such issuance is at a price per share which is less than the then applicable exercise price of the warrants, in which event then the exercise price shall be reduced and only reduced to equal lower issuance price and the number of shares issuable upon exercise thereof shall be increased such that the aggregate exercise price payable thereunder, after taking into account the decrease in the exercise price, shall be equal to the aggregate exercise price prior to such adjustment.
The Class F Callable Warrants are callable by the Company, at a price of $0.001 per warrant, subject to certain conditions, after the earlier to occur of (i) the expiration of the then applicable hold periods for a cashless exercise under Rule 144 as promulgated pursuant to the Securities Act of 1933, as amended or (ii) the date the registration statement filed pursuant to the Registration Rights Agreement is declared effective by the SEC, which was declared effective by the SEC on March 21, 2008, if Octillions common stock, the volume weighted average price for each of 5 consecutive Trading Days exceeds $1.75.
Pursuant to the Securities Purchase Agreement and the Registration Rights Agreement, the Company and the investor parties have made other covenants and representations and warranties regarding matters that are customarily included in financings of this nature. In the event that during the twelve month period following the Closing Date, the Company issues shares at a price per share which is less than $1.00 (Base Share Price), then the Company is required to issue to the investors the number of shares equal to (1) the quotient of the aggregate purchase price payable under the Securities Purchase Agreement divided by Base Share Price less (2) the quotient of the aggregate purchase price divided by the per share purchase price under the Securities Purchase Agreement.
The agent was paid a total cash fee of 7% of the aggregate proceeds and Class F Callable Warrants to purchase 514,500 shares of the Companys common stock valued at $642,980 and representing 7% of the total number of shares purchased by the Investors. In addition, the agent was reimbursed $6,045 for expenses incurred on behalf of the Company.
The fair value of the 4,189,500 Class F Callable warrants granted was estimated at $1.25 each, for a total of amount of $5,236,875, by using the Black-Scholes Option Pricing Model with the following weighted average assumptions: dividend yield of 0%, expected volatility of 159.33%, risk-free interest rates of 4.76%, and expected lives of 3 years.
During the quarter ended May 31, 2008, 20,000 Class C warrants, 20,000 Class D warrants and 175,000 Class F Callable warrants were exercised with aggregate proceeds of $239,750.
8. Warrants
As of May 31, 2008, the following warrants were outstanding:
(a) 100,000 Class D Warrants which entitle the holders to purchase 100,000 common shares of the Company at $0.55 each expiring on April 23, 2009.
(b) 120,000 Class E Warrants which entitle the holders to purchase 120,000 common shares of the Company at $0.60 each expiring on April 23, 2010.
(c) 4,014,500 Class F Callable Warrants which entitle the holders to purchase 4,014,500 common shares of the Company at $1.25 expiring on February 12, 2011.
9. Stock Options
As of May 31, 2008, the Company had an active stock option plan that provides shares available for options granted to employees, directors and others. Options granted to employees under the Companys option plans generally vest over two to five years or as otherwise determined by the plan administrator. Options to purchase shares expire no later than ten years after the date of grant.
In September 2007, the Company appointed Mr. Nicholas Cucinelli to the positions of President and Chief Executive Officer and granted him options to purchase up to 1,500,000 shares of the Companys common stock at an exercise price of $4.21.
12
The fair value of the 1,500,000 options granted was estimated at $4.53 each, for a total of amount of $6,795,000, by using the Black-Scholes Option Pricing Model with the following weighted average assumptions: dividend yield of 0%, expected volatility of 187.12%, risk-free interest rates of 4.56%, and expected lives of 5 years.
On February 15, 2008, the Company terminated the stock option agreement granted to Mr. Nicholas Cucinelli in September 2007 for 1,500,000 stock options and simultaneously entered into a 10 year Stock Option Agreement with Mr. Nicholas Cucinelli for 1,250,000 common shares reserved for issuance under the Companys 2006 Incentive Stock Option Plan, effective immediately. This was accounted for as a modification of the originally issued stock options in accordance with SFAS 123(R) Share-Based Payment.
The 1,250,000 stock options have an exercise price of $1.66 per share. The options vest as follows: (a) 300,000 vest and become exercisable in annual installments of 100,000 for three years, with the first 100,000 vesting on February 8, 2009; (b) 500,000 vest and become exercisable in the event that the Company, or any subsidiary thereof, with the prior approval of the Board of Directors: successfully executes any partnership agreement or joint-venture agreement of any technology under current or future development; or successfully completes the sale any subsidiary; or any technology under current or future development; and (c) 450,000 vest and become exercisable upon: commencing commercial sales of products derived from any technology under current or future development; or successfully achieving commercial gross annual sales exceeding $10,000,000 of those products and/or services which are not derived from technologies under current or future research and development by the Company; or successfully completing the sale of Octillion to a third party, subject to shareholder and Board of Directors approval. All unexercised Options, whether vested or not, expire immediately in the event that Mr. Cucinelli is removed from his position by the Board of Directors, shareholders or voluntarily resigns from his position.
As 950,000 out of the 1,250,000 stock options will vest based on certain performance conditions, the Company expects that the first 500,000 stock options will vest at around 24 months from the date of grant and the remaining 450,000 stock options will vest at around 36 months from the date of grant The fair value of each batch of stock options will be amortized over their expected service periods. The Company will periodically reassess the probability of the performance conditions being met and the estimated service period of each batch of stock options.
The fair value of the 1,250,000 options granted was estimated at $1.39 each, by using the Black-Scholes Option Pricing Model with the following weighted average assumptions: dividend yield of 0%, expected volatility of 166.72%, risk-free interest rates of 2.76%, and expected lives of 5 years.
Additional stock-based compensation expense of $100,000 will be recognized over the remaining requisite service period as a result of the cancellation and re-issuance of stock options.
On March 10, 2008, the Company granted 100,000 stock options to two directors at an exercise price of $1.66 per share. The first 20,000 stock options will vest on February 8, 2009 and then 20,000 stock options will vest every year thereafter. The fair value of the 100,000 options granted was estimated at $1.23 each, for a total of amount of $123,000, by using the Black-Scholes Option Pricing Model with the following weighted average assumptions: dividend yield of 0%, expected volatility of 164.88%, risk-free interest rates of 2.37%, and expected lives of 5 years.

The aggregate intrinsic value in the table above represents the total pretax intrinsic value for all in-the-money options (i.e. the difference between the Companys closing stock price on the last trading day of the period ended May 31, 2008 and the exercise price, multiplied by the number of shares) that would have been received by the option holders had all option holders exercised their options on May 31, 2008. This amount change is based on the fair market value of the Companys stock. Total intrinsic

Overview
We were incorporated in the State of Nevada on May 5, 1998, with an authorized capital stock of 100,000,000 shares of common stock, $0.001 par value, and 1,000,000 shares of preferred stock, par value $0.10. As of July 10, 2008, 57,754,600 shares of common stock were issued and outstanding; there are no preferred shares issued and outstanding.
Our corporate headquarters is located at 2638 Lapeer Road, Suite 2, Auburn Hills, MI. Our telephone number is (800) 213-0689.
Octillion Corp., together with its wholly owned subsidiaries, is a next generation technology incubator focused on the identification, acquisition, development, and commercialization of alternative and renewable energy technologies. Among our current research and development activities is the development of a technology that could adapt existing home and office glass windows into ones capable of generating electricity from solar energy without losing significant transparency or requiring major changes in manufacturing infrastructure.
UIUC Silicon Nanoparticle Energy Technology
On August 25, 2006, through our wholly owned subsidiary, Sungen Energy, Inc. (Sungen), we entered into a Sponsored Research Agreement (UIUC Sponsored Research Agreement) with the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign (UIUC) for the development of a new patent-pending technology to integrate films of silicon nanoparticle material on glass substrates, acting as photovoltaic solar cells that have the potential to convert normal home and office glass windows into ones capable of converting solar energy into electricity, with limited loss of transparency and minimal changes in manufacturing infrastructure (the UIUC Silicon Nanoparticle Energy Technology). On July 23, 2007, the Company through its wholly owned subsidiary, Sungen, amended its Sponsored Research Agreement with the UIUC Pursuant to this amended Sponsored Research Agreement, Octillion agreed to provide additional funds to the previously awarded amount of $219,201 to the University of Illinois in order to accelerate the development of films of silicon nanoparticle material composed of nanosilicon photovoltaic solar cells that have the potential to convert solar radiation to electrical energy.
The process of producing silicon nanoparticles is supported by ten (10) issued US Patents, seven (7) pending US patents, two (2) issued foreign counterpart patents and nineteen (19) pending foreign counterpart patents. Collectively, such patents are referred to as the UIUC Patents. The initial term of the UIUC Sponsored Research Agreement expires on August 22, 2008; during this period we have agreed to advance a total of $422,818 to fund the research and development activities.
Critical Accounting Policies
Our discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations are based on our financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. The preparation of these financial statements requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities and expenses and related disclosures. We review our estimates on an ongoing basis.
15
We consider an accounting estimate to be critical if it requires assumptions to be made that were uncertain at the time the estimate was made; and changes in the estimate or different estimates that could have been made could have a material impact on our results of operations or financial condition.
General and Administrative Expenses
Our general and administrative expenses consist primarily of personnel related costs, legal costs, including intellectual property, investor relations costs, stock based compensation costs, accounting costs, and other professional and administrative costs.
Research and Development Costs
Research and development costs represent costs incurred to develop our technology incurred pursuant to our sponsored research agreement with UIUC. This agreement includes salaries and benefits for research and development personnel, allocated overhead and facility occupancy costs, contract services and other costs. We charge all research and development expenses to operations as they are incurred except for prepayments which are capitalized and amortized over the applicable period. We do not track research and development expenses by project. In addition costs for third party laboratory work might occur.
Results of Operation
The Company has yet to establish any history of profitable operations. The Company has incurred operating losses of $1,606,403 and $239,894 for the three months ended May 31, 2008 and May 31, 2007, respectively. As a result, at May 31, 2008, the Company has an accumulated deficit of $6,795,479.
We expect that any future revenues will not be sufficient to sustain our operations for the foreseeable future. Our profitability will require the successful completion of our research and development programs, and the subsequent commercialization of the results or of products derived from such research and development efforts. No assurances can be given when this will occur or that we will ever be profitable.
Three and Nine Months Ended May 31, 2008 and 2007
The Company had no revenues in the three and nine months ended May 31, 2008 and May 31, 2007. Our expenses increased 570% to $1,606,403 in the three months ended May 31, 2008, from $239,894 in the same period in 2007. This increase of $1,366,509 for the three months ended May 31, 2008 compared to the same period in 2007 was primarily attributable to increases in stock based compensation expenses and investor relations expenses.
Interest income increased 93% to $16,761 in the three months ended May 31, 2008, from $8,674 during the same period in 2007, reflecting higher than average cash balances maintained during most of the second quarterly period in 2008. For the nine months ended May 31, 2008 and in the same period in 2007, interest income has increased 126% to $41,364 from $18,312, reflecting higher than average cash balances maintained during most of the first three fiscal quarterly periods in 2008.
We incurred net losses of $1,594,103 and $201,512 during the three months ended May 31, 2008 and in the same period in 2007, respectively, and we also incurred net losses of $4,403,580 and $765,117for the nine months ended May 31, 2008 and May 31, 2007.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
As of May 31, 2008, the Company had a cash balance of $3,476,404. The Company has financed its operations primarily through cash on hand during the nine months ended May 31, 2008.
Net cash flows used in operating activities was $1,585,170, for the nine month period ending May 31, 2008, compared to net cash flows used of $723,506 for the same period in 2007, primarily due to an increase in stock based compensation expenses and investor relations expenses.
Net cash provided by financing activities was $3,635,705 for the nine months period ending May 31, 2008, compared to $1,550,000 for the same period in 2007. The Company has financed its operations primarily from cash on hand, warrant exercises and a private placement.

Off-Balance Sheet Items
We do not currently have any relationships with unconsolidated entities or financial partnerships, such as entities often referred to as structured finance or special purpose entities, which would have been established for the purpose of facilitating off-balance sheet arrangements or other contractually narrow or limited purposes. In addition, we do not engage in trading activities involving non-exchange traded contracts. As such, we are not materially exposed to any financing, liquidity, market or credit risk that could arise if we had engaged in these relationships.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In March 2008, the FASB issued SFAS No. 161, "Disclosures about Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities - an amendment to FASB Statement No. 133". SFAS No. 161 is intended to improve financial standards for derivative instruments and hedging activities by requiring enhanced disclosures to enable investors to better understand their effects on an entity's financial position, financial performance, and cash flows. Entities are required to provide enhanced disclosures about: (a) how and why an entity uses derivative instruments; (b) how derivative instruments and related hedged items are accounted for under Statement 133 and its related interpretations; and (c) how derivative instruments and related hedged items affect an entity's financial position, financial performance, and cash flows. It is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2008, with early adoption encouraged. The adoption of this statement is not expected to have a material effect on the Company's future reported financial position or results of operations.
In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 141R, "Business Combinations". This statement replaces SFAS 141 and defines the acquirer in a business combination as the entity that obtains control of one or more businesses in a business combination and establishes the acquisition date as the date that the acquirer achieves control. SFAS 141R requires an acquirer to recognize the assets acquired, the liabilities assumed, and any non-controlling interest in the acquiree at the acquisition date, measured at their fair values as of that date. SFAS 141R also requires the acquirer to recognize contingent consideration at the acquisition date, measured at its fair value at that date. This statement is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning on or after December 15, 2008. Earlier adoption is prohibited. The adoption of this statement is not expected to have a material effect on the Company's future reported financial position or results of operations.
In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 160, "Noncontrolling Interests in Consolidated Financial Statements Liabilities - an Amendment of ARB No. 51". This statement amends ARB 51 to establish accounting and reporting standards for the non-controlling interest in a subsidiary and for the deconsolidation of a subsidiary. This statement is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning on or after December 15, 2008. Earlier adoption is prohibited. The adoption of this statement is not expected to have a material effect on the Company's future reported financial position or results of operations.
In December 2007, the FASB ratified EITF No. 07-1, Accounting for Collaborative Arrangements, that discusses how parties to a collaborative arrangement (which does not establish a legal entity within such arrangement) should account for various activities. The consensus indicates that costs incurred and revenues generated from transactions with third parties (i.e. parties outside of the collaborative arrangement) should be reported by the collaborators on the respective line items in their income statements pursuant to EITF Issue No. 99-19, Reporting Revenue Gross as a Principal Versus Net as an Agent., Additionally, the consensus provides that income statement characterization of payments between the participants in a collaborative arrangement should be
17
based upon existing authoritative pronouncements; analogy to such pronouncements if not within their scope; or a reasonable, rational, and consistently applied accounting policy election. EITF Issue No. 07-1 is effective for financial statements beginning after December 15, 2008 and is to be applied retrospectively to all periods presented for collaborative arrangements existing as of the date of adoption. The Company is evaluating the impact, if any, the adoption of this consensus will have on the results of operations, financial position or cash flows.
In June 2007, the Emerging Issues Task Force of the FASB issued EITF Issue No. 07-3, Accounting for Nonrefundable Advance Payments for Goods or Services to be Used in Future Research and Development Activities, (EITF 07-3) which is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2007. EITF 07-3 requires that nonrefundable advance payments for future research and development activities be deferred and capitalized. Such amounts will be recognized as an expense as the goods are delivered or the related services are performed. The Company does not expect the adoption of EITF 07-3 to have a material impact on the financial results of the Company.
ITEM 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
Our exposure to market risk is confined to our cash equivalents and short-term investments. We invest in high-quality financial instruments; primarily money market funds, federal agency notes, and US Treasury obligations, with the effective duration of the portfolio within one year which we believe are subject to limited credit risk. We currently do not hedge interest rate exposure. Due to the short-term nature of our investments, we do not believe that we have any material exposure to interest rate risk arising from our investments.
ITEM 4. Controls and Procedures
Disclosure controls and procedures.
Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our chief executive officer and chief financial officer, we conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as of the end of the period covered by this quarterly report. Based on this evaluation, our chief executive officer and chief financial officer concluded as of May 31, 2008 that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective such that the information required to be disclosed in our United States Securities and Exchange Commission reports is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in SEC rules and forms, and is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our chief executive officer and chief financial officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
Internal control over financial reporting.
There have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the quarter ended May 31, 2008 that have materially affected or are reasonably likely to materially affect our internal control over financial reporting.
