OCULUS INNOVATIVE SCIENCES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
(Unaudited)
Note 1. Organization and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Organization
     Oculus Innovative Sciences, Inc. (the “Company”) was incorporated under the laws of the State of California in April 1999 and was reincorporated under the laws of the State of Delaware in December 2006. The Company’s principal office is located in Petaluma, California. The Company develops, manufactures and markets a family of products intended to prevent and treat infections in chronic and acute wounds. The Company’s platform technology, called Microcyn, is a proprietary oxychlorine small molecule formulation that is designed to treat a wide range of organisms that cause disease, or pathogens, including viruses, fungi, spores and antibiotic resistant strains of bacteria. The Company conducts its business worldwide, with significant operating subsidiaries in Europe and Mexico.
Basis of Presentation
     The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements as of December 31, 2008 and for the three and nine months then ended have been prepared in accordance with the accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for interim financial information and pursuant to the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 8 of Regulation S-X of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) and on the same basis as the annual audited consolidated financial statements. The unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2008, condensed consolidated statements of operations for the three and nine months ended December 31, 2008 and 2007, and the condensed consolidated statements of cash flows for the nine months ended December 31, 2008 and 2007 are unaudited, but include all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments, which the Company considers necessary for a fair presentation of the financial position, operating results and cash flows for the periods presented. The results for the three and nine months ended December 31, 2008 are not necessarily indicative of results to be expected for the year ending March 31, 2009 or for any future interim period. The condensed consolidated balance sheet at March 31, 2008 has been derived from audited consolidated financial statements. However, it does not include all of the information and notes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for complete consolidated financial statements. The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements for the year ended March 31, 2008, and notes thereto included in the Company’s Form 10-K, which was filed with the SEC on June 13, 2008.
Use of Estimates
     The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent liabilities at the dates of the condensed consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. Periodically, the Company evaluates and adjusts estimates accordingly. The allowance for uncollectible accounts receivable balances amounted to $9,000 and $31,000, which are included in accounts receivable, net in the accompanying December 31, 2008 and March 31, 2008 condensed consolidated balance sheets, respectively.
Foreign Currency Reporting
     The consolidated financial statements are presented in United States Dollars in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standard (“SFAS”) No. 52, “Foreign Currency Translation” (“SFAS 52”). Accordingly, the Company’s subsidiary, Oculus Technologies of Mexico, S.A. de C.V. (“OTM”) uses the local currency (Mexican Pesos) as its functional currency, Oculus Innovative Sciences Netherlands, B.V. (“OIS Europe”) uses the local currency (Euro) as its functional currency and Oculus Innovative Sciences Japan, K.K. (OIS Japan) uses the local currency (Yen) as its functional currency. Assets and liabilities are translated at exchange rates in effect at the balance sheet date, and revenue and expense accounts are translated at average exchange rates during the period. Resulting translation adjustments were recorded in accumulated other comprehensive loss in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets at December 31, 2008 and March 31, 2008.
     Foreign currency transaction gains (losses) relate primarily to working capital loans that the Company has made to its subsidiary OIS Japan and trade payables and receivables between subsidiaries OTM and OIS Europe. These transactions are expected to be settled in the

foreseeable future. The Company recorded foreign currency transaction gains (losses) of $(65,000) and $324,000 for the three months ended December 31, 2008 and 2007, respectively, and the Company recorded foreign currency transaction gains (losses) of $(25,000) and $1,135,000 for the nine months ended December 31, 2008 and 2007, respectively. The related gains (losses) were recorded in other income (expense) in the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of operations. Loans made to its subsidiaries OTM and OIS Europe are expected be paid back to the Company as cash flows sufficient to repay the loans are generated.
     The Company and its OTM and OIS Europe subsidiaries periodically re-evaluate the operating plans and liquidity circumstances of each operating subsidiaries. The Company and its Mexico and Netherlands subsidiaries determined that the subsidiaries lack the ability to repay the outstanding balances of their respective intercompany loans in the foreseeable future. As a result, the Company renegotiated the terms of its notes with its Mexico and Netherlands subsidiaries. The Company’s board of directors memorialized the working capital loan agreements. The terms of the new loan agreements extend the maturity date of the loans plus all accrued interest for an additional five years to April 1, 2013. In the event the loans cannot be settled at the maturity date, the parties may agree that the loans will be renewed for periods of three years. The Company and its subsidiaries have agreed that interest will compound and accrue at the initial rate of 4.65% and shall be adjusted upward to the applicable federal rate, or AFR, for mid-term debt established by the U.S. Internal Revenue Service if the AFR for mid-term debt is higher than the initial rate on the first day of each calendar quarter.
     Due to the renegotiation of the loans and the lack of ability to predict if the loans will be settled in the foreseeable future, the Company believes it was appropriate to evaluate its treatment of foreign exchange gains and losses resulting from the translation of the loans from local currency to U.S. Dollars. In accordance with the provisions of SFAS 52, if it is determined that an intercompany loan will not be repaid in the foreseeable future, foreign exchange gains and losses related to the translation of the loans from local currency to U.S. Dollars should be classified as other comprehensive income and loss. The Company believes that given the inability to foresee settlement of the loans, it is appropriate to record the exchange gains and losses related to these loans in other comprehensive income and loss.
Net Loss per Share
     The Company computes net loss per share in accordance with SFAS No. 128 “Earnings Per Share”. Under SFAS No. 128, basic net loss per share is computed by dividing net loss per share available to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period and excludes the effects of any potentially dilutive securities. Diluted earnings per share, if presented, would include the dilution that would occur upon the exercise or conversion of all potentially dilutive securities into common stock using the “treasury stock” and/or “if converted” methods, as applicable. The computation of basic loss per share excludes potentially dilutive securities because their inclusion would be anti-dilutive.
     The following securities were excluded from basic and diluted net loss per share calculation because their inclusion would be anti-dilutive (in thousands):

Common Stock Purchase Warrants and Other Derivative Financial Instruments
     The Company accounts for the issuance of common stock purchase warrants issued and other freestanding derivative financial instruments in accordance with the provisions of Emerging Issues Task Force Issue (“EITF”) 00-19 “Accounting for Derivative Financial Instruments Indexed to, and Potentially Settled in, a Company’s Own Stock” (“EITF 00-19”). Based on the provisions of EITF 00-19, the Company classifies as equity any contracts that (i) require physical settlement or net-share settlement or (ii) give the Company a choice of net-cash settlement or settlement in its own shares (physical settlement or net-share settlement). The Company classifies as assets or liabilities any contracts that (i) require net-cash settlement (including a requirement to net cash settle the contract if an event occurs and if that event is outside the control of the Company) or (ii) gives the counterparty a choice of net-cash settlement or settlement in shares (physical settlement or net-share settlement).

Table of Contents

     The Company completed a classification assessment of all of its freestanding derivative financial instruments as of December 31, 2008 and determined that such instruments meet the criteria for equity classification in accordance with EITF 00-19.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
     In May 2008, the FASB issued SFAS No. 162, The Hierarchy of Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (SFAS 162). SFAS 162 is intended to improve financial reporting by identifying a consistent framework, or hierarchy, for selecting accounting principles to be used in preparing financial statements that are presented in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. The guidance in SFAS 162 replaces that prescribed in Statement on Auditing Standards No. 69, The Meaning of Present Fairly in Conformity With Generally Accepted Accounting Principles, and becomes effective 60 days following the SEC’s approval of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board’s auditing amendments to AU Section 411, The Meaning of Present Fairly in Conformity with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles. The adoption of SFAS 162 will not have an impact on the Company’s consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
     In May 2008, the FASB issued FASB Staff Position (“FSP”) APB 14-1, “Accounting for Convertible Debt Instruments That May Be Settled in Cash upon Conversion (Including Partial Cash Settlement)” This FSP clarifies that convertible debt instruments that may be settled in cash upon conversion (including partial cash settlement) are not addressed by paragraph 12 of APB Opinion No. 14, Accounting for Convertible Debt and Debt Issued with Stock Purchase Warrants. Additionally, this FSP specifies that issuers of such instruments should separately account for the liability and equity components in a manner that will reflect the entity’s nonconvertible debt borrowing rate when interest cost is recognized in subsequent periods. This FSP is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2008, and interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company is in the process of determining the impact FSP APB 14-1 will have on its consolidated financial statements.
     In June 2008, the FASB issued FSP EITF 03-6-1, “Determining Whether Instruments Granted in Share-Based Payment Transactions Are Participating Securities”. This FSP addresses whether instruments granted in share-based payment transactions are participating securities prior to vesting and, therefore, need to be included in the earnings allocation in computing earnings per share (EPS) under the two-class method described in paragraphs 60 and 61 of FASB Statement No. 128, Earnings per Share. FSP EITF 03-6-1 is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2008, and interim periods within those years. The Company is in the process of determining the impact FSP EITF 03-6-1 will have on its consolidated financial statements.
     In December 2008, the FASB ratified EITF Issue No. 07-5, “Determining Whether an Instrument (or Embedded Feature) Is Indexed to an Entity’s Own Stock”. This issue addresses the determination of whether an instrument (or an embedded feature) is indexed to an entity’s own stock, which is the first part of the scope exception in paragraph 11(a) of Statement 133. This issue is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2008, and interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company is in the process of determining the impact EITF 07-5 will have on its consolidated financial statements.
     Other accounting standards that have been issued or proposed by the FASB, the EITF, the SEC and or other standards-setting bodies that do not require adoption until a future date are not expected to have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements upon adoption.
Note 2. Going Concern, Liquidity and Financial Condition
The Company incurred a net loss of $3,320,000 and $15,431,000 for the three and nine months ended December 31, 2008, respectively. At December 31, 2008, the Company’s accumulated deficit amounted to $106,257,000. During the nine months ended December 31, 2008, net cash used in operating activities amounted to $14,592,000. At December 31, 2008, the Company’s working capital amounted to $647,000. The Company needs to raise additional capital from external sources in order to sustain its operations while continuing the longer term efforts contemplated under its business plan. The Company expects to continue incurring losses for the foreseeable future and must raise additional capital to pursue its product development initiatives, penetrate markets for the sale of its products and continue as a going concern. The Company cannot provide any assurance that it will raise additional capital. Management believes that the Company has access to capital resources through possible public or private equity offerings, debt financings, corporate collaborations or other means; however, the Company has not secured any commitment for new financing at this time nor can it provide any assurance that new financing will be available on commercially acceptable terms, if at all. If the economic climate in the U.S. does not improve or continues to deteriorate, the Company’s ability to raise additional capital could be negatively impacted. If the Company is unable to secure additional capital, it may be required to curtail its research and development initiatives and take additional measures to reduce

Table of Contents

costs in order to conserve its cash in amounts sufficient to sustain operations and meet it obligations. These measures could cause significant delays in the Company’s efforts to commercialize its products in the United States, which is critical to the realization of its business plan and the future operations of the Company. These matters raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that may be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.
     On April 1, 2008, the Company had a second closing, related to a registered direct offering effectuated on March 31, 2008, of an additional 18,095 shares of its common stock at a purchase price of $5.25 per share, and warrants to purchase an aggregate of 9,047 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $6.85 per share for gross proceeds of $95,000 (net proceeds of $36,000 after deducting the placement agent’s commission and other offering expenses).
     On January 26, 2009, the Company closed the first of three installments related to a private placement, of 427,759 shares of its common stock of which 294,691 shares were sold at a price of $1.13 per share and of which 133,068 shares were sold at a price of $1.255 per share for total proceeds of $500,000 and net proceeds of $450,000 (net of a $50,000 payment to a third party that assisted with the transaction) (Note 9).
     On January 30, 2009, the Company closed the second of three installments related to a private placement of 427,759 shares of its common stock of which 294,691 shares were sold at a price of $1.13 per share and of which 133,068 shares were sold at a price of $1.255 per share for total proceeds of $500,000 (Note 9). This investment was made ahead of the scheduled date of March 2, 2009.
     On February 6, 2009, the Company closed on a separate transaction with a group of accredited investors whereby the Company raised $1,752,803 in gross proceeds through a private placement of 1,499,404 Units. The exclusive placement agent for the offering received $122,696 for their services. The Company intends to use the proceeds received from the sale of the Units for working capital and general corporate purposes (Note 9).

Notes Payable
     On June 14, 2006, the Company entered into a credit facility providing it with up to $5,000,000 of available credit. The facility permitted the Company to borrow up to a maximum of $2,750,000 for growth capital, $1,250,000 for working capital based on eligible accounts receivable and $1,000,000 in equipment financing. In June 2006, the Company drew an aggregate of $4,182,000 of borrowings under this facility. These borrowings are payable in 30 to 33 fixed monthly installments with interest at rates ranging from 12.4% to 12.7% per annum, maturing at various times through April 9, 2009. As of December 31, 2008, the Company has no unused availability under this credit facility since amounts drawn under the working capital facility were based upon an initial measurement of eligible accounts receivable.
     In connection with the borrowings under this facility, the Company also issued to the lender warrants to purchase up to 71,521 shares of its common stock at an exercise price of $18.00 per share. The aggregate fair value of all warrants issued to the lender under this arrangement amounts to $1,046,000. This amount was recorded as debt issue costs in the March 31, 2007 condensed consolidated balance sheet and is being amortized as interest expense over the term of the credit facility of 30 to 33 months. For the three months ended December 31, 2008 and 2007, the Company recorded $89,000 and $107,000, respectively, of non-cash interest expense related to the amortization of debt issue costs. For the nine months ended December 31, 2008 and 2007, the Company recorded $304,000 and $322,000, respectively, of non-cash interest expense related to the amortization of debt issue costs.

     Borrowings under the growth capital line are collateralized by certain assets of the Company. Borrowings under the equipment line are collateralized by the underlying assets funded, and borrowings under the working capital line are collateralized by eligible accounts receivable. On a monthly basis, the Company must maintain a 1:1 ratio of borrowing under the working capital line to eligible accounts receivable. The Company has 30 days from each measurement date to either increase eligible accounts receivable or pay the excess principal in the event that the ratio is less than 1:1. No restrictive covenants exist for either the equipment line or the growth capital line. The Company is not required to direct customer remittances to a lock box, nor does the credit agreement provide for subjective acceleration of the loans.
     On March 29, 2007, the Company entered into Amendment No. 1 to the loan agreement evidencing the credit facility described above. Pursuant to the amendment, the lender and the Company agreed that the lender’s security interest in the Company’s assets would not include the Company’s intellectual property unless and until the Company’s cash and cash equivalents fall below 600% of the Company’s average monthly operating expenses less non-cash charges. At December 31, 2008, the Company’s cash and cash equivalents position was not in excess of 600% of its average monthly operating expenses and therefore the lender holds a security interest in the Company’s intellectual property. On an ongoing basis, the Company will periodically review and assess whether the lender’s security interest should include the Company’s intellectual property. The Company’s intellectual property is used only as collateral and remains in the Company’s control unless the lender takes described action after an event of default by the Company under the loan agreements.
     In connection with the notes issued under the above credit facility, for the three months ended December 31, 2008 and 2007, the Company made $431,000 and $381,000 of principal payments, respectively, and for the nine months ended December 31, 2008 and 2007, the Company made $1,254,000 and $1,108,000 of principal payments, respectively. Additionally, for the three months ended December 31, 2008 and 2007, the Company made $27,000 and $77,000 of interest payments, respectively, and for nine months ended December 31, 2008 and 2007, the Company made $120,000 and $266,000 of interest payments, respectively. The aggregate remaining principal balance under this facility amounted to $575,000, which is included in the current portion of long-term debt in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet at December 31, 2008.
Note 4. Commitments and Contingencies
Legal Matters
     In November 2005, the Company identified a possible criminal misappropriation of its technology in Mexico, and notified the Mexican Attorney General’s office of the matter. The Company believes the Mexican Attorney General is currently conducting an investigation.
     In June 2006, the Company received a written communication from the grantor of a license to an earlier version of its technology indicating that such license was terminated due to an alleged breach of the license agreement by the Company. The license agreement extends to the Company’s use of the technology in Japan only. While the Company does not believe that the grantor’s revocation is valid under the terms of the license agreement and no legal claim has been threatened to date, the Company cannot provide any assurance that the grantor will not take legal action to restrict the Company’s use of the technology in the licensed territory. While the Company’s management does not anticipate that the outcome of this matter is likely to result in a material loss, there can be no assurance that if the grantor pursues legal action, such legal action would not have a material adverse effect on our financial position or results of operations.
     In February 2007, the Company’s Mexico subsidiary served Quimica Pasteur (“QP”), a former distributor of the Company’s products in Mexico, with a claim alleging breach of contract under a note made by QP. A trial date has not yet been set.
     The Company, from time to time, is involved in legal matters arising in the ordinary course of its business including matters involving proprietary technology. While management believes that such matters are currently not material, there can be no assurance that matters arising in the ordinary course of business for which the Company is or could become involved in litigation, will not have a material adverse effect on its business, financial condition or results of operations.

Employment Agreements
     As of December 31, 2008, the Company has entered into employment agreements with five of its key executives. The agreements provide, among other things, for the payment of six to twenty-four months of severance compensation for terminations under certain circumstances. With respect to these agreements, at December 31, 2008, aggregated potential severance amounted to $1,828,000 and aggregated annual salaries amounted to $1,180,000.
     On September 4, 2008, the employment agreement of Mr. Mike Wokasch, the Company’s Chief Operating Officer’s was terminated, effective September 5, 2008. In connection with the termination, the Company is required to provide Mr. Wokasch with a lump sum severance payment of $275,000, which is equivalent to twelve months of his salary. Additionally, pursuant to the employment agreement, upon termination all non-vested options that were outstanding at the termination date became immediately exercisable. The Company recorded $1,168,000 of stock compensation expense related to the acceleration of the vesting. The options will expire twelve months from the date of termination, on September 5, 2009 (Note 6). The severance and stock compensation expense was recorded as a selling, general and administrative expense in the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of operations for the nine months ended December 31, 2008. The Company paid the severance on October 10, 2008.
Board Compensation
     On April 26, 2007, the Company’s board of directors adopted a Non-Employee Director Compensation Package (the “Compensation Package”) to provide members of the board and its committees with regular compensation. The Compensation Package provides for cash payments of $25,000 in two equal installments to each of the non-employee members of the board of directors. Directors who are members (but not the chairperson) of the audit committee receive an additional $5,000 per year. Directors who are members (but not the chairperson) of the compensation committee receive an additional $2,000 per year. The chairperson of the board of directors receives $15,000 annually, the lead director (if different from the chair person) receives $10,000 annually, the chairperson of the audit committee receives $10,000 annually, and the chairperson of each other committee receives $5,000 annually. Upon mutual agreement between the Compensation Committee and the Non-Employee Director’s, the Company may issue stock options in lieu of cash payments. Additionally, the Compensation Package also provides for the grant of options to each non-employee director under the 2006 Restated Stock Incentive Plan. Each new director will receive an initial option grant to purchase 50,000 shares of the Company’s common stock, which will vest over three years, and each non-employee director will receive an automatic annual grant of an option to purchase 15,000 shares of the Company’s common stock, which will vest monthly over a period of one year. The annual option grants were granted to non-employee directors following the annual stockholders meeting on August 27, 2008. In connection with the annual awards, on September 2, 2008, the Company granted 15,000 options to each of four non-employee directors at an exercise price of $2.82 per share which was the closing price of the Company’s common stock on the date of grant. Additionally, on December 9, 2008, the Company issued 25,000 options at $0.40 per share to each of three Non-Employee Director’s in lieu of cash payments that were due on November 1, 2008 (Note 6). One Non-Employee Director received a cash payment of $12,500.
Commercial Agreements
     On May 8, 2007, and June 11, 2007, the Company entered into separate commercial agreements with two unrelated customers granting such customers the exclusive right to sell the Company’s products in specified territories or for specified uses. Both customers are required to maintain certain minimum levels of purchases of the Company’s products in order to maintain the exclusive right to sell the Company’s products. Up-front payments amounting to $625,000 paid under these agreements have been recorded as deferred revenue. The short-term portion of the deferred revenue related to these agreements amounted to $97,500 which is included in accrued expenses and other current liabilities in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet at December 31, 2008. The up-front fees are being amortized on a straight-line basis over the terms of the underlying agreements. For the three and nine months ended December 31, 2008, the Company amortized $24,000 and $73,000, respectively, of deferred revenue related to these agreements which is included in product revenue in the accompanying condensed consolidated statement of operations.
Other Matters
     On September 16, 2005, the Company entered into a series of agreements with QP, a Mexico-based company engaged in the business of distributing pharmaceutical products to hospitals and health care entities owned or operated by the Mexican Ministry of Health. These agreements provided, among other things, for QP to act as the Company’s exclusive distributor of Microcyn to the Mexican Ministry of Health for a period of three years. In connection with these agreements, the Company was concurrently granted an option to acquire all

11


Table of Contents

except a minority share of the equity of QP directly from its principals in exchange for 150,000 shares of common stock, contingent upon QP’s attainment of certain financial milestones. The Company’s distribution and related agreements were cancelable by the Company on thirty days’ notice without cause and included certain provisions to hold the Company harmless from debts incurred by QP outside the scope of the distribution and related agreements. The Company terminated these agreements on March 26, 2006 without having exercised the option.
     Due to its liquidity circumstances, QP was unable to sustain operations without the Company’s subordinated financial and management support. Accordingly, QP was deemed to be a variable interest entity in accordance with FIN 46(R) and its results were consolidated with the Company’s consolidated financial statements for the period of September 16, 2005 through March 26, 2006, the effective termination date of the distribution and related agreement, without such option having been exercised.
     Subsequent to having entered into the agreements with QP, the Company became aware of an alleged tax avoidance scheme involving the principals of QP. The audit committee of the Company’s board of directors engaged an independent counsel, as well as tax counsel in Mexico to investigate this matter. The audit committee of the board of directors was advised that QP’s principals could be liable for up to $7,000,000 of unpaid taxes; however, the Company is unlikely to have any loss exposure with respect to this matter because the alleged tax omission occurred prior to the Company’s involvement with QP. The Company has not received any communications to date from Mexican tax authorities with respect to this matter.
     Based on an opinion of Mexico counsel, the Company’s management and the audit committee of the board of directors do not believe that the Company is likely to experience any loss with respect to this matter. However, there can be no assurance that the Mexican tax authorities will not pursue this matter and, if pursued, that it would not result in a material loss to the Company.
Note 5. Stockholders’ Equity
Common Stock Issued in Registered Direct Offering
     On April 1, 2008, the Company conducted a second closing of a registered direct offering effectuated on March 31, 2008, in which the Company closed on an additional 18,095 shares of its common stock at a purchase price of $5.25 per share, and warrants to purchase an aggregate of 9,047 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $6.85 per share for gross proceeds of $95,000 (net proceeds of $36,000 after deducting the placement agent’s commission and other offering expenses).
Common Stock Purchase Warrants Issued to Non-Employee Director
     On November 7, 2006, the Company entered into a two-year consulting agreement with its new director, Robert Burlingame. Under the terms of the agreement, the Company issued to the director, a warrant to purchase 75,000 shares of the Company’s common stock, exercisable at a price equal to the Company’s common stock in its initial public offering in consideration of corporate advisory services. The warrant was fully exercisable and non-forfeitable at date of issuance. The warrant was valued using the Black-Scholes option pricing model. Assumptions used were as follows: fair value of the underlying stock of $9.00, which represented the expected mid-point of the IPO at the December 31, 2006 reporting date; risk-free interest rate of 4.70% percent; contractual life of 5 years; dividend yield of 0%; and volatility of 70%. The fair value of the warrants amounted to $350,000. Following the guidance enumerated in Issue 2 of EITF 96-18 “Accounting for Equity Instruments That Are Issued to Other Than Employees for Acquiring, or in Conjunction with Selling, Goods or Services”, the Company is amortizing the fair value of the warrants over the two-year term of the consulting agreement which is consistent with its treatment of similar cash transactions. For the three months ended December 31, 2008 and 2007, the amortized fair value of the warrant amounted to $18,000 and $44,000, respectively, and for the nine months ended December 31, 2008 and 2007, the amortized fair value of the warrant amounted to $106,000 and $132,000, respectively. The amortized fair value was recorded as selling, general and administrative expense in the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of operations. The warrants are fully amortized as of December 31, 2008.
Note 6. Stock-Based Compensation
     Prior to April 1, 2006, the Company accounted for stock-based employee compensation arrangements in accordance with the provisions of APB No. 25, “Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees,” (“APB 25”) and its related interpretations and applied the disclosure requirements of SFAS No. 148, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation-Transition and Disclosure, an amendment of Statement of Financial Accounting Standard No. 123 ‘Share-Based Payments’” (“SFAS 123”). The Company used the minimum value method to measure the fair value of awards issued prior to April 1, 2006 with respect to its application of the disclosure requirements under SFAS 123.

     The Company recognized in salaries and related expense in the condensed consolidated statements of operations $23,000 and $36,000 of stock-based compensation expense during the three months ended December 31, 2008 and 2007, respectively, and $90,000 and $112,000 of stock-based compensation expense during the nine months ended December 31, 2008 and 2007, respectively, which represents the intrinsic value amortization of options granted prior to April 1, 2006 that the Company is continuing to account for using the recognition and measurement principles prescribed under APB 25. At December 31, 2008, there was $40,000 of unrecognized compensation cost related to options that the Company accounted for under APB 25 through March 31, 2006. These costs are expected to be recognized over a weighted average remaining amortization period of two-thirds year.
     Effective April 1, 2006, the Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standard No. 123(R) “Share Based Payment” (“SFAS 123(R)”) using the prospective transition method, which requires the fair value measurement and recognition of compensation expense for all share-based payment awards granted, modified and settled to the Company’s employees and directors after April 1, 2006. The Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements as of March 31, 2008 and for the three months ended December 31, 2008 and 2007, reflect the impact of SFAS 123(R). In accordance with the prospective transition method, the Company’s financial statements for prior periods have not been restated to reflect, and do not include, the impact of SFAS 123(R).
     The effect of recording stock-based compensation expense in accordance with the provisions of SFAS 123(R) is as follows (in thousands, except per share amounts):
                                 
    Three Months     Nine Months

     The Company recorded $1,168,000 of stock compensation expense related to the termination of the Company’s former Chief Operating Officer (Note 4). Pursuant to an employment agreement, the Company had a contractual obligation to accelerate the vesting of all of his outstanding options at the date of termination. The vesting acceleration was a pre-existing vesting condition rather than a modification to the original terms of the option agreements. Therefore, the Company was not required to record incremental compensation expense related to the vesting acceleration under the provisions of SFAS 123(R). The Company recorded the expense related to the vesting acceleration in selling, general and administrative expense in the accompanying condensed consolidated statement of operations for the nine months ended December 31, 2008.
     No income tax benefit has been recognized relating to stock-based compensation expense and no tax benefits have been realized from exercised stock options.
     The Company estimated the fair value of employee stock awards using the Black-Scholes option pricing model. The fair value of employee stock options is being amortized on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period of the awards. The fair value of employee stock options was estimated using the following weighted-average assumptions:
                                 
    Three Months   Nine Months
    Ended   Ended
    December 31,   December 31,
    2008   2007   2008   2007

    0.00 %     0.00 %     0.00 %     0.00 %
Volatility
    83 %     79 %     82 %     72 %

Table of Contents

     The expected term of stock options represents the average period the stock options are expected to remain outstanding and is based on the expected term calculated using the approach prescribed by SAB 110 for “plain vanilla” options. The Company used this approach as it did not have sufficient historical information to develop reasonable expectations about future exercise patterns and post-vesting employment termination behavior. The expected stock price volatility for the Company’s stock options was determined by examining the historical volatilities for industry peers and using an average of the historical volatilities of the Company’s industry peers. The Company will continue to analyze the stock price volatility and expected term assumptions as more data for the Company’s common stock and exercise patterns becomes available. The risk-free interest rate assumption is based on the U.S. Treasury instruments whose term was consistent with the expected term of the Company’s stock options. The expected dividend assumption is based on the Company’s history and expectation of dividend payouts.
     In addition, SFAS No. 123(R) requires forfeitures to be estimated at the time of grant and revised, if necessary, in subsequent periods if actual forfeitures differ from those estimates. Forfeitures were estimated at 5% based on historical experience. Prior to the adoption of SFAS No. 123(R), the Company accounted for forfeitures as they occurred.
     A summary of all option activity as of December 31, 2008 and changes during the nine months then ended is presented below:

    1,967     $ 4.86       4.40     $ 783  
 
                       
     In addition to the above option activity, on April 26, 2007, an award of 60,000 stock units was issued to an officer of the Company. Each stock unit represents the right to receive a share of the Company’s common stock, in consideration of past services rendered and the payment by the officer of $3.00 per share, upon the settlement of the stock unit on a fixed date in the future. Half of the stock units, representing 30,000 shares, were forfeited on January 15, 2009 and the remaining 30,000 will be settled on January 15, 2010.
     The aggregate intrinsic value is calculated as the difference between the exercise price of the stock options and the underlying fair value of the Company’s common stock ($1.43) for stock options that were in-the-money as of December 31, 2008.
     The Company granted 1,095,000 and 1,255,000 stock options to various employees and non-employee directors during the three and nine months ended December 31, 2008, respectively. The options granted during the three and nine months ended December 31, 2008, had a weighted-average grant date fair value of $0.28 and $0.61 per share, respectively. At December 31, 2008, there was unrecognized compensation costs of $2,824,000 related to stock options accounted for in accordance with the provisions of SFAS 123(R). The cost is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average amortization period of 2.89 years.
     The Company issues new shares of common stock upon exercise of stock options.
     As provided under the Company’s 2006 Stock Incentive Plan (“2006 Plan”), the aggregate number of shares authorized for issuance as awards under the 2006 Plan automatically increased on April 1, 2008 by 795,180 shares (which number constitutes 5% of the outstanding shares on the last day of the year ended March 31, 2008). Remaining shares authorized for issuance from the 2006 Plan at December 31, 2008 was 686,917.
Note 7. Income Taxes
     The Company has completed a study to assess whether a change in control has occurred or whether there have been multiple changes of control since the Company’s formation. The study concluded that no change in control occurred for purposes of Internal Revenue Code section 382. The Company, after considering all available evidence, fully reserved for these and its other deferred tax assets since it is more likely than not such benefits will not be realized in future periods. The Company has incurred losses for both financial reporting and income tax purposes for the year ended March 31, 2008. Accordingly, the Company is continuing to fully reserve for its

14


Table of Contents

deferred tax assets. The Company will continue to evaluate its deferred tax assets to determine whether any changes in circumstances could affect the realization of their future benefit. If it is determined in future periods that portions of the Company’s deferred income tax assets satisfy the realization standard of SFAS No. 109, the valuation allowance will be reduced accordingly.
     In June 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Interpretation 48, “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes” (“FIN 48”), which became effective for the Company beginning April 1, 2007. FIN 48 addresses how tax benefits claimed or expected to be claimed on a tax return should be recorded in the financial statements. Under FIN 48, the tax benefit from an uncertain tax position can be recognized only if it is more likely than not that the tax position will be sustained on examination by the taxing authorities, based on the technical merits of the position. The tax benefits recognized in the financial statements from such a position are measured based on the largest benefit that has a greater than fifty percent likelihood of being realized upon ultimate resolution. The adoption of FIN 48 had no impact on the Company’s financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.
     The Company has identified its federal tax return and its state tax return in California as major tax jurisdictions. The Company is also subject to certain other foreign jurisdictions, principally Mexico and The Netherlands. The Company’s evaluation of FIN 48 tax matters was performed for tax years ended through March 31, 2008. Generally, the Company is subject to audit for the years ended March 31, 2007, 2006 and 2005 and maybe be subject to audit for amounts relating to net operating loss carryforwards generated in periods prior to March 31, 2005. The Company has elected to retain its existing accounting policy with respect to the treatment of interest and penalties attributable to income taxes in accordance with FIN 48, and continues to reflect interest and penalties attributable to income taxes, to the extent they arise, as a component of its income tax provision or benefit as well as its outstanding income tax assets and liabilities. The Company believes that its income tax positions and deductions would be sustained on audit and does not anticipate any adjustments, other than those identified above that would result in a material change to its financial position.

Note 9. Subsequent Events
Modification of Common Stock Warrant Agreements
     On January 22, 2009, the Company’s Board of Directors authorized the Company’s management to modify certain common stock warrant agreements. The modifications will be subject to negotiation and the warrant holders giving up certain rights. In the event management and the warrant holders agree to terms, the expiration dates of these warrant agreements could be extended to January 27, 2014. The warrant agreements were originally due to expire on various dates between January 30, 2009 and November 10, 2011. In the three months ended March 31, 2009, the Company may record in selling, general and administrative expense of its consolidated statement of operations, incremental fair value related to these warrants in the amount up to $332,000. The incremental fair value was calculated using the Black-Scholes pricing model. Weighted-average assumptions used were as follows: weighted average exercise price of $10.78 per share; risk-free interest rate 1.61%; contractual life of five years, dividend yield of 0.0%; and volatility of 83%. The total number of common shares to be issued if all warrants are exercised is 866,255 shares.

Business Overview
     We develop, manufacture and market, a family of products intended to prevent and treat infections in chronic and acute wounds while concurrently enhancing wound healing through modes of action unrelated to the treatment of infection. Infection is a serious potential complication in both chronic and acute wounds, and controlling infection is a critical step in wound healing. Our platform technology, called Microcyn®, is a proprietary solution of electrically charged oxychlorine small molecules designed to treat a wide range of organisms that cause disease (pathogens) These include viruses, fungi, spores and antibiotic-resistant strains of bacteria, such as Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus, or MRSA, and Vancomycin-resistant Enterococcus, or VRE, in wounds. Our device product is cleared for sale in the United States as a 510(k) medical device for wound cleaning, debridement, lubricating, moistening and dressing; is a device under CE Mark in Europe; is approved by the State Food and Drug Administration, or SFDA, in China as a technology that reduces the propagation of microbes in wounds and creates a moist environment for wound healing; and is approved as a drug in India and Mexico. We do not have the necessary regulatory approvals to market Microcyn in the United States as a drug, nor do we have the necessary regulatory clearance or approval to market Microcyn in the U.S. as a medical device for an antimicrobial or wound healing indication.
     Clinical testing we conducted in connection with our submissions to the FDA, as well as physician clinical studies, suggest that our Microcyn-based product may help reduce a wide range of pathogens from acute and chronic wounds while curing or improving infection and concurrently enhancing wound healing through modes of action unrelated to the treatment of infection. These physician clinical studies suggest that our Microcyn-based product is safe, easy to use and complementary to many existing treatment methods in wound care. Physician clinical studies and usage in the United States suggest that our 510(k) product may shorten hospital stays, lower aggregate patient care costs and, in certain cases, reduce the need for systemic antibiotics. We are also pursuing the use of our Microcyn platform technology in other markets outside of wound care, including in the respiratory, ophthalmology, dental and dermatology markets.

     In 2005, chronic and acute wound care represented an aggregate of $9.6 billion in global product sales, of which $3.3 billion was spent for the treatment of skin ulcers, $1.6 billion to treat burns and $4.7 billion for the treatment of surgical and trauma wounds, according to Kalorama Information, a life sciences market research firm. In the Kalorama Information we believe the markets most related to our product involve approximately $1.3 billion for the treatment of skin ulcers, $300 million for the treatment of burns and $700 million for the treatment of surgical and trauma wounds Common methods of controlling infection, including topical antiseptics and antibiotics, have proven to be only moderately effective in combating infection in the wound bed. However, topical antiseptics tend to inhibit the healing process due to their toxicity and may require specialized preparation or handling. Antibiotics can lead to the emergence of resistant bacteria, such as MRSA and VRE. Systemic antibiotics may be less effective in controlling infection in patients with disorders affecting circulation, such as diabetes, which are commonly associated with chronic wounds. As a result, no single treatment is used across all types of wounds and stages of healing.
     We believe Microcyn is the only known stable, anti-infective therapeutic available in the world today that simultaneously cures or improves infection while also promoting wound healing through increased blood flow to the wound bed and reduction of inflammation. Also, we believe Microcyn provides significant advantages over current methods of care in the treatment of a wide range of chronic and acute wounds throughout all stages of treatment. These stages include cleaning, debridement, prevention and treatment of infections and wound healing. Unlike antibiotics, antiseptics, growth regulators and other advanced wound care products, we believe that Microcyn is the only stable wound care solution that is safe as saline, and also cures infection while simultaneously accelerating wound healing. Also, unlike most antibiotics, we believe Microcyn does not target specific strains of bacteria, a practice which has been shown to promote the development of resistant bacteria. In addition, our products are shelf stable, require no special preparation and are easy to use.
     Our goal is to become a worldwide leader as the standard of care in the treatment and irrigation of open wounds. We currently have, and intend to seek additional, regulatory clearances and approvals to market our Microcyn-based products worldwide. In July 2004, we began selling Microcyn in Mexico after receiving approval from the Mexican Ministry of Health, or MOH, for the use of Microcyn as an antiseptic, disinfectant and sterilant. Since then, physicians in the United States, Europe, India, Pakistan, China and Mexico have conducted more than 25 physician clinical studies assessing Microcyn’s use in the treatment of infections in a variety of wound types, including hard-to-treat wounds such as diabetic ulcers and burns. Most of these studies were not intended to be rigorously designed or controlled clinical trials and, as such, did not have all of the controls required for clinical trials used to support a new drug application, or NDA, submission to the FDA. A number of these studies did not include blinding, randomization, predefined clinical end points, use of placebo and active control groups or U.S. good clinical practices requirements. We used the data generated from some of these studies to support our application for the CE Mark, or European Union certification, for wound cleaning and reduction of microbial load. We received the CE Mark in November 2004 and additional international approvals in China, Canada, Mexico and India. Microcyn has also received three FDA 510(k) clearances for use as a medical device in wound cleaning, or debridement, lubricating, moistening and dressing, including traumatic wounds and acute and chronic dermal lesions.
     In the fourth quarter of 2007, we completed a Phase II randomized clinical trial, which was designed to evaluate the effectiveness of Microcyn in mildly infected diabetic foot ulcers with the primary endpoint of clinical cure or improvement in signs and symptoms of infection according to guidelines of Infectious Disease Society of America. We used 15 clinical sites and enrolled 48 evaluable patients in three arms, using Microcyn alone, Microcyn plus an oral antibiotic and saline plus an oral antibiotic. We announced the results of our Phase II trial in March 2008. In the clinically evaluable population of the study, the clinical success rate at visit four (test of cure) for patients treated with Microcyn alone was 93.3% compared to 56.3% for the Levofloxacin plus saline-treated patients. This study was not statistically powered, but the high clinical success rate (93.3%) and the p-value (0.033) would suggest the difference is meaningfully positive for the Microcyn-treated patients. Also, for this set of data, the 95.0% confidence interval for the Microcyn-only arm ranged from 80.7% to 100.0% while the 95.0% confidence interval for the Levofloxacin and saline arm ranged from 31.9% to 80.6%; the confidence intervals do not overlap, thus indicating a favorable clinical success for Microcyn compared to Levofloxacin. At visit three (end of treatment) the clinical success rate for patients treated with Microcyn alone was 77.8% compared to 61.1% for the Levofloxacin plus saline-treated patients.
     We conducted a review meeting with the FDA in August 2008 to discuss the results of our Phase II trial and our future clinical program. Following a review of the Phase II data on Microcyn Technology for the treatment of mildly infected diabetic foot ulcers, the FDA agreed:
    We may move forward into the pivotal phase of our U.S. clinical program for Microcyn Technology.
 
    There were no safety issues relative to moving into this next clinical phase immediately, and carcinogenicity studies will not be required for product approval; and
 
    Clinical requirements for efficacy and safety for a new drug application, or NDA, will be appropriately accounted for within the agreed upon pivotal trial designs.

Table of Contents

     Two pivotal clinical trials must be completed for submission to the FDA of an NDA, for the treatment of mildly infected diabetic foot ulcers. Commencement of these trials will be dependent upon the support of a strategic partner. In the event that we successfully complete clinical trials and obtain drug approval from the FDA, we may seek clearance for treatment of other types of wounds. We are currently pursuing strategic partnerships to assess potential applications for Microcyn in several other markets and therapeutic categories, including respiratory, ophthalmology, dermatology, dental and veterinary markets. FDA or other governmental approvals will be required for any potential new products or new indications.
     We currently make Microcyn available under our three 510(k) clearances in the United States, primarily through our website and several regional distributors as a test marketing effort. In the quarter ending December 31, 2008, we initiated a more aggressive commercialization into the podiatry market in the United States. In addition, an over-the-counter “first responder” pen application (MyClyns) with Microcyn has been marketed in the United States since January 2008, by our partner Union Springs Pharmaceuticals (a subsidiary of the Drug Enhancement Company of America, or DECA).
     We have announced the development of a MicroGel and a delivery device for Microcyn, both of which will require 510k approval in the US as well as approvals in Europe, China, India and Mexico. We expect to obtain those approvals and initiate commercialization during our next fiscal year in all of these countries.
     We currently rely on exclusive agreements with country-specific distributors for the sale of Microcyn-based products in Europe. In Mexico, we sell Microcyn through a network of distributors and through a contract sales force dedicated exclusively to selling Microcyn, including salespeople, nurses and clinical support staff. In India, we sell through Alkem, the fifth largest pharmaceutical company in India. The first full year of Microcyn product distribution in India was in 2008. In China, we signed a distribution agreement with China Bao Tai, which secured marketing approval from the SFDA in March 2008. China Bao Tai intends to begin distribution of Microcyn-based products to hospitals, doctors and clinics through Sinopharm, the largest pharmaceutical group in China. China Bao Tai and Sinopharm are in the process of providing samples broadly to many hospitals and doctors throughout many provinces in China in anticipation of a product launch after approval for reimbursement has been obtained.
     Our goal for fiscal 2010 is to achieve the following milestones:
    Identify and initiate partnerships and/or distribution agreements for Microcyn both inside and outside the United States;
 
    Reduce operating costs while increasing revenues;
 
    Secure expanded U.S. label claims on 510(k)-cleared products;
 
    Launch Microcyn Rx and OTC into U.S. podiatry market;
 
    Secure regulatory approvals and launch MicrocynGel into U.S., China, Mexico, the EU and India;
 
    Support our partners in China with introduction of Dermacyn into strategic wound care facilities; and
 
    File and obtain additional patents on new formulations and drug delivery systems.
     We may not obtain on a timely basis, if at all, the necessary FDA approval and/or clearances to market Microcyn in the U.S. for the treatment of infection in diabetic foot ulcers, wound healing or otherwise. A number of factors can delay or prevent completion of human clinical trials, particularly patient recruitment. Moreover, many drug candidates fail to successfully complete clinical trials. After an NDA is filed with the FDA, the FDA commences an in-depth review of the NDA that typically takes ten months to a year to complete but may take longer. In addition, we may not obtain on a timely basis, or at all, the necessary 510(k) clearances for the next-generation Microcyn product formulation. The milestones described above assume that we have sufficient funds to conduct and complete our pivotal trials, that the results from these clinical trials support an NDA filing and that our products will be commercially viable. We may not find appropriate distribution or strategic partners, generate revenue sufficient to fund our cash flow needs or meet any of the milestones described above in a timely manner or at all.

Our testing laboratory complies with U.S. good manufacturing practices and quality systems regulation.
Financial Operations Overview
Comparison of Three Months Ended December 31, 2008 and 2007
  Overview
     Sales in Mexico increased 34% during the three months ended December 31, 2008, with the largest increase in sales to hospitals despite the significant negative impact of a 24% decline in the value of the peso at the end of the quarter compared to December 31, 2007. We also initiated significant cost-reduction measures the three months ended December 31, 2008, in our U.S. operations, which reduced our headcount from 56 to 29 in the U.S. combined with anticipated additional cost reductions in the quarter ending March 31, 2009. We believe that these reductions will lead to decreases in net losses in the upcoming quarters, and accelerate our path to profitability.
Revenues
     We experienced 19% growth in product revenues and about the same sales in our services business, resulting in reported revenues of $1.2 million during the three months ended December 31, 2008. The $156,000 increase in product revenues was due primarily to $204,000 higher sales in Mexico, up 34% over the same period last year. Without the drop in the value of the peso during the quarter, the product growth in Mexico would have been 61%. Unit sales of our 240-milliliter presentation, sold mostly to pharmacies in Mexico increased 15% over the prior year to a monthly average of 32,000 units. Generally, the third quarter is our weakest quarter of the year due to typically low sales in Mexico for health care in the month of December. Sales to hospitals in Mexico increased by $200,000 over the year ago period, due to both higher sales volumes, up 118%, and higher averages selling prices. Europe and the Rest of the World, or Europe/ROW, sales decreased over the prior year due to lower sales to Slovakia and India, caused by irregular shipments and price adjustments. Product sales in the US were up slightly, showing the initial signs of the launch into the podiatry market.

     Service revenues were $222,000 maintaining a similar level to our sales in the prior year, as we continue our strategy of maintaining, not growing this business, and focusing primarily on our Microcyn business.
Gross Profit / Loss
     We reported gross profit from our Microcyn products business of $686,000, or 69% of product revenues, during the three months ended December 31, 2008, compared a gross profit of $335,000, or 40%, in the year ago period. This increase was primarily due to lower costs in Europe and improved efficiency and higher sales volumes in our Mexico operations, which improved margins to 77% during the three months ended December 31, 2008, compared to 73% a year ago. The lower costs in Europe put our European operation in a positive gross margin position during the three months ended December 31, 2008, compared to a gross loss position in the year ago period. Our services business continues to be slightly profitable from period to period.
     We expect gross profit to increase as a percentage of sales in future periods as we consolidate our manufacturing operations and reduce our fixed costs as product revenues grow.

Research and Development Expense
     Research and development expense consists primarily of costs associated with personnel, materials, and clinical trials within our product development, regulatory and clinical organizations. Research and development expense decreased $1.6 million, or 64%, to $933,000 for the three months ended December 31, 2008, from $2.6 million for the three months ended December 31, 2007. This decrease was primarily the result of $1.0 million lower outside clinical fees as our company was actively engaged in completing our Phase II clinical trial for the treatment of diabetic foot ulcers during the quarter ended December 31, 2007. In addition, we eliminated the supporting clinical staff and focused on finding a partner to complete the pivotal trials. Other regulatory and research staff were also reduced during the period consistent with our overall cost reduction initiatives.
     We anticipate that our research and development expense will decline as a result of the reduction of research and development personnel, and the transfer of the clinical trial costs to a potential partner. We anticipate that most of the impact of these reductions will be reflected in the quarter ending March 31, 2009.
Selling, General and Administrative Expense
     Selling, general and administrative expense consists primarily of costs associated with sales, marketing and administrative personnel, as well as other corporate expenses such as legal, accounting, and insurance. Selling, general and administrative expense decreased $379,000, or 11%, to $2.9 million during the three months ended December 31, 2008, from $3.3 million during the three months ended December 31, 2007. This decrease was primarily due to reduction of personnel and related salary costs, legal expenses and stock compensation expenses. This decrease was partially offset by higher sales and marketing consulting fees of $320,000 associated with market research and other pre-launch expenses related to our US Microcyn wound care product launch, which occurred in October 2008.
     We expect that our selling, general and administrative expenses will decline in the quarter ending March 31, 2009 as we reduced the number of selling, general, and administrative personnel in the U.S. from 22 to 14 over the last two quarters. The increase in selling costs related to our product launch in the US will partially offset the decline related to the overall reduction in force and will eventually cause an increase in this expense category as we grow our sales in the US.
Interest income and expense and other income and expense
     Interest expense decreased $86,000 to $113,000 for the three months ended December 31, 2008, from $199,000 in the year ago period, due to the payments made on debt in the prior year. Total outstanding debt decreased $1.7 million to $776,000 at December 31, 2008, from $2.5 million at December 31, 2007. Interest income decreased $133,000, to $17,000 for the three months ended December 31, 2008, from $150,000 in the year ago period, primarily due to the decrease in our interest bearing cash balance over the past year.
     Other income and expense decreased $383,000 to net other expense of $84,000 for the three months ended December 31, 2008, from net other income of $299,000 for the three months ended December 31, 2007. Primarily this decrease was due to our intercompany notes to Europe and Mexico being reclassified during the period as long term, and therefore no foreign currency adjustment was required to revalue the notes. In prior periods, this account consisted of charges due to the fluctuation of foreign exchange rates, and the resulting gain or loss recognized for the revaluation of our intercompany notes payable denominated in non-local currencies.
Net Loss
     Net loss for the three months ended December 31, 2008 was $3.3 million, down $2.0 million from $5.3 million for the same period last year. Stock compensation expenses for the three months ended December 31, 2008 and 2007 were $200,000 and $406,000 respectively.
Comparison of Nine Months Ended December 31, 2008 and 2007
Revenues
     We experienced 50% growth in product revenues and a slight decline in our services business resulting in reported revenues of $3.9 million during the nine months ended December 31, 2008. The $1.1 million increase in product revenues was due primarily to $916,000

higher sales in Mexico. Mexico sales increased 59% on higher unit volumes of our Microcyn wound care product to hospitals and pharmacies, as well as higher average selling prices in both our 5-liter and our 240-milliliter presentations. Sales of 240-milliliter units in Mexico increased 33% on improvements to both units sold and higher average selling prices as compared to the year ago period. Additionally, sales to hospitals in Mexico increased 140% on both higher unit shipments and selling prices. Europe/Rest of the World sales have increased over the prior year due primarily to a $79,000 initial sale to our customer China Bao Tai in China during Q2, as well as sales growth to our customers in India, Singapore, and Italy.

     The $69,000, or 9%, decline in service revenues was due to a decrease in the number of tests provided by our services business.
Gross Profit / Loss
     We reported gross profit from our Microcyn products business of approximately $2.0 million, or 63% of product revenues, during the nine months ended December 31, 2008, compared a gross profit of $858,000, or 40%, in the year ago period. This increase was primarily due to lower costs in Europe and the improvements in our Mexico operations, which have improved margins to 74% during the nine months ended December 31, 2008, compared to 70% a year ago. Lower costs in Europe have put our European operation in a positive gross margin position during the nine months ended December 31, 2008, compared to a gross loss position in the year ago period. Our services business continues to be at or near breakeven as it was in the year ago period.
Research and Development Expense
     Research and development expense declined $1.4 million, or 20%, to $5.6 million for the nine months ended December 31, 2008, compared to $7.1 million in the year ago period. Most of the decrease was attributable to outside clinical expenses, which were $1.8 million higher in the same period last year, which related the costs of the Phase II clinical trial last year. During the first part of the fiscal year we increased our personnel, while in the later part of Q2 and in Q3 we significantly reduced the number of people in research and development, so that the net cost of personnel was about the same. This expense also includes severance costs of $290,000.
Selling, General and Administrative Expense
     Selling, general and administrative expense increased $1.1 million, or 10%, to $11.5 million during the nine months ended December 31, 2008, from $10.4 million during the nine months ended December 31, 2007. Primarily, this increase was due to a $2.1 million increase in non-cash stock compensation expenses associated with the options granted to employees, including the $1.1 million of stock compensation charges for the accelerated vesting of stock options as part of the separation agreement with terminated employees. In addition, there was $436,000 of severance expense associated with these terminations during the period. Sales and marketing fees were also higher by $458,000 primarily associated with market research, pre-launch and launch expenses associated with our US Microcyn wound care product introduction to podiatrists, which occurred in October, 2008. These increases were offset in part by $725,000 lower bonus expense as only select bonuses were accrued for in the current year, compared to the larger executive and employee bonus plan that was accrued for in the year ago period.
     Due to significant reductions in headcount and projects, we expect these overall expenses to decline with most of the impact displayed in the quarter ending March 31, 2009. These expenses will grow in future periods as we spend more money on expanding the sales in the US market.

Interest income and expense and other income and expense
     Interest expense decreased $420,000, or 50%, to $424,000 for the nine months ended December 31, 2008, from $844,000 in the year ago period, due to the payments made on debt over the prior year. Total outstanding debt decreased $1.7 million to $776,000 at December 31, 2008, from $2.5 million at December 31, 2007. Interest income decreased $407,000, to $149,000 for the nine months ended December 31, 2008, from $556,000 in the year ago period, primarily due to the decrease in our interest bearing cash balance over the past year.
     Other income and expense decreased $1.2 million to net other expense of $97,000 for the nine months ended December 31, 2008, from net other income of $1.1 million for the nine months ended December 31, 2007. Primarily this decrease was due to our intercompany notes to Europe and Mexico being reclassified in Q2 as long term, and therefore no foreign currency adjustment was required to revalue the notes in this quarter. In prior periods, this account consisted of charges due to the fluctuation of foreign exchange rates, and the resulting gain or loss recognized for the revaluation of our intercompany notes payable denominated in non-local currencies.
Net Loss
     Net loss for the nine months ended December 31, 2008 was $15.4 million, down $0.5 million from $15.9 million for the same period last year. Stock compensation expense for the nine months ended December 31, 2008 and 2007 were $2.1 million and $916,000 respectively.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
     Since our inception, we have incurred significant losses. As of December 31, 2008, we had an accumulated deficit of $106.3 million. We have not yet achieved profitability, and we expect that our operating losses will decline in the future due to cost reductions completed during the last two quarters and the increase in sales. Even with this reduction in operating expense, we will need to raise additional capital to sustain our business until such time that we are able to generate sufficient product revenues to achieve profitability.
Sources of Liquidity
     As of December 31, 2008, we had unrestricted cash and cash equivalents of $2.4 million. Since our inception, substantially all of our operations have been financed through sales of equity securities. Other sources of financing that we have used to date include our revenues, as well as various loans.
     Since our inception, substantially all of our operations have been financed through the sale of $99 million of our common and convertible preferred stock. These net proceeds include $21.9 million raised in our initial public offering on January 30, 2007, $9.1 million raised in a private placement of common shares on August 13, 2007, and $12.6 million raised through a registered direct placement from March 31, 2008 to April 1, 2008.
     In June 2006, we entered into a loan and security agreement with a financial institution to borrow a maximum of $5.0 million. Under this facility we have borrowed $4.2 million, and have paid back $3.6 million in principal as of December 31, 2008. The terms of this facility include monthly principal payments over three years, plus interest payments of 8.5% per annum.
     On January 26, 2009, we entered into Purchase Agreements and a Revenue Sharing Agreement with VetCure Inc., a California corporation, (“VetCure”), one of our Directors, Robert Burlingame, and an accredited investor, whereby VetCure and its affiliates agreed to make a $3.0 million investment in our Company in exchange for the exclusive rights to distribute and sell Vetericyn Wound Care product for animals in the United States and an aggregate of 3.0 million shares of common stock with warrants. Of the $3.0 million investment, $500,000 was paid at the time of signing, $500,000 on January 30, 2009 and the rest will be paid on or before August 1, 2009. On February 6 2009, we entered into Purchase Agreements with a group of institutional investors whereby we raised $1.75 million in gross proceeds through a private placement of 1.5 million shares of common stock with warrants. We intend to use the $4.7 million cash infusion as general working capital and to help accelerate our commercial activities in the United States, China, Europe, Mexico, India and select Middle East countries.

Cash Flows
     As of December 31, 2008, we had unrestricted cash and cash equivalents of $2.4 million, compared to $18.8 million at March 31, 2008.
     Net cash used in operating activities during the nine months ended December 31, 2008 was $14.6 million, primarily due to the $15.4 million net loss for the period, and to a $1.3 million decrease in accounts payable, primarily the result of payments made for the placement fee of our registered direct fundraising in March 2008 that were outstanding at March 31, 2008, and a $1.3 decrease in accrued expenses, related mostly to accrued bonuses earned during the fiscal year ended March 31, 2008. These uses of cash were offset in part by non-cash charges during the nine months ended December 31, 2008, including $2.1 million of stock-based compensation, $617,000 of depreciation and amortization and $304,000 of non-cash interest expense, and $219,000 of loss on the disposal of capital equipment. Net cash used in operating activities during the nine months ended December 31, 2007 was $14.0 million, primarily due to the $15.9 million net loss for the period, and to a lesser extent a $1.1 million decrease in accounts payable due to the timing of payments made to our vendors and $1.1 million of foreign currency gain. These uses of cash were offset in part by non-cash charges during the nine months ended December 31, 2007, including $916,000 of stock-based compensation, $548,000 of depreciation and amortization, $415,000 of non-cash interest expense and $1.2 million decrease in accrued expenses.
     Net cash used in investing activities was $325,000, and $414,000 for the nine months ended December 31, 2008 and 2007, respectively. Primarily this cash was used during the periods for purchasing lab and manufacturing equipment.
     Net cash used in financing activities was $1.4 million for the nine months ended December 31, 2008. Primarily this cash was used for the repayment of outstanding debt during the period. Net cash provided by financing activities was $5.6 million for the nine months ended December 31, 2007. This primarily included full payment on a $4.0 million note payable to Robert Burlingame and $9.1 million of net funds received in connection with a private placement of common stock.
Operating Capital and Capital Expenditure Requirements
     We incurred a net loss of $15.4 million for the nine months ended December 31, 2008. At December 31, 2008 and March 31, 2008, our accumulated deficit amounted to $106.2 million and $90.8 million, respectively. At December 31, 2008, our working capital amounted to $647,000.
     We need to raise additional capital from external sources in order to sustain our operations while continuing the longer term efforts contemplated under our business plan. We expect to continue incurring losses for the foreseeable future and must raise additional capital to pursue our product development initiatives, to penetrate markets for the sale of our products and for us to continue as a going concern. We cannot provide any assurance that we will raise additional capital. If the economic climate in the U.S. does not improve or continues to deteriorate, our ability to raise additional capital could be negatively impacted. If we are unable to raise additional capital, we will be required to curtail certain operating activities, and implement additional cost reductions in an effort to conserve capital in amounts sufficient to sustain operations and meet it obligations for the next twelve months. These matters raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. We believe that we have access to capital resources through public or private equity offerings, debt financings, corporate collaborations or other means; however, we have not secured any commitment for new financing at this time nor can we provide any assurance that new financing will be available on commercially acceptable terms, if at all. If we are unable to secure additional capital, we may be required to curtail our research and development initiatives and take additional measures to reduce costs in order to conserve cash. These measures could cause significant delays in our efforts to commercialize our products in the United States, which is critical to the realization of our business plan and our future operations.
     We have undertaken initiatives to reduce costs in an effort to conserve liquidity. Future pivotal trials will require the selection of a partner and must also be completed in order for us to commercialize Microcyn as a drug product in the United States. Commencement of the pivotal clinical trials will be delayed until we find a strategic partner to fund these trials. Without a strategic partner or additional capital, our pivotal clinical trials will be delayed for a period of time that is currently indeterminate.
Our future funding requirements will depend on many factors, including:
    the scope, rate of progress and cost of our clinical trials and other research and development activities;
 
    future clinical trial results;

Use of Estimates
     The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent liabilities at the dates of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. Actual results could differ from these estimates. These estimates and assumptions include reserves and write-downs related to receivables and inventories, the recoverability of long-term assets, deferred taxes and related valuation allowances and valuation of equity instruments.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
     As of December 31, 2008, we did not have any off-balance sheet arrangements.
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
     Smaller reporting companies are not required to provide the information required by this Item.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures
     (a) Evaluation of disclosure controls and procedures. We maintain “disclosure controls and procedures,” as such term is defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, or Exchange Act, that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in Securities and Exchange Commission rules and forms, and that such information 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. In designing and evaluating our disclosure controls and procedures, management recognized that disclosure controls and procedures, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the disclosure controls and procedures are met. Our disclosure controls and procedures have been designed to meet reasonable assurance standards. Additionally, in designing disclosure controls and procedures, our management necessarily was required to apply its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible disclosure controls and procedures. The design of any disclosure controls and procedures also is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions.
     Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, we have evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as required by Exchange Act Rule 13a-15(b) as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based on that evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that these disclosure controls and procedures are effective at the reasonable assurance level.
     (b) Changes in internal controls. There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the fiscal quarter ended December 31, 2008 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II — OTHER INFORMATION
Item 1. Legal Proceedings
Legal Matters
     The Company, on occasion, is involved in legal matters arising in the ordinary course of its business. While management believes that such matters are currently insignificant, there can be no assurance that matters arising in the ordinary course of business for which the Company is or could become involved in litigation will not have a material adverse effect on its business, financial condition or results of operations.
ITEM 1A: Risk Factors
     There have been no material changes from risk factors previously disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2008, as filed with the SEC on June 13, 2008, except as follows:
We have a history of losses, we expect to continue to incur losses and we may never achieve profitability.
     We incurred a net loss of $3,320,000 and $15,431,000 for the three and nine months ended December 31, 2008, respectively. At December 31, 2008, our accumulated deficit amounted to $106,257,000. During the six months ended December 31, 2008, our net cash used in operating activities amounted to $14,592,000. At December 31, 2008, our working capital amounted to $647,000. We have yet to demonstrate that we can generate sufficient sales of our products to become profitable. The extent of our future operating losses and the timing of profitability are highly uncertain, and we may never achieve profitability. Even if we do generate significant revenues from our product sales, we expect that increased operating expenses will result in significant operating losses in the near term as we, among other things:
  conduct preclinical studies and clinical trials on our products and product candidates;
 
  increase our research and development efforts to enhance our existing products, commercialize new products and develop new product candidates;
 
  establish additional, and expand existing, manufacturing facilities; and
 
  grow our sales and marketing capabilities in the United States and internationally.
     As a result of these activities, we will need to generate significant revenue in order to achieve profitability and may never become profitable.
     Without raising additional capital, we would curtail certain operational activities, including regulatory trials, in order to reduce costs. We may not secure any commitments for new financing on acceptable terms, if at all.
Declining general economic or business conditions may have a negative impact on our business.
     Concerns over inflation, energy costs, geopolitical issues, the availability and cost of credit, the U.S. mortgage market and a declining real estate market in the U.S. have contributed to increased volatility and diminished expectations for the global economy and expectations of slower global economic growth going forward. These factors, combined with volatile oil prices, declining business and consumer confidence and increased unemployment, have precipitated a global economic slowdown. If the economic climate in the U.S. does not improve or continues to deteriorate, our business, including our patient population, our suppliers and our third-party payors, could be negatively affected, resulting in a negative impact on our business.
Item 2. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds
We did not sell any unregistered securities during the quarter ended December 31, 2008.
