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 is a commercial healthcare company that designs, produces, and markets innovative, safe and effective drugs, devices, and nutritional products. It is pioneering innovative products for the dermatology, surgical, wound care, and animal healthcare markets. The Company’s primary focus is on its proprietary technology platform called Microcyn® Technology. This technology is based on electrically charged oxychlorine small molecules designed to target a wide range of organisms that cause disease (pathogens). Several Microcyn® Technology tissue care products are designed to treat infections and enhance healing while reducing the need for antibiotics.

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements as of September 30, 2012 and for the three and six 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 Company prepares its annual audited consolidated financial statements. The unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheet as of September 30, 2012, condensed consolidated statements of operations for the three and six months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011, and the condensed consolidated statements of cash flows for six months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011 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 six months ended September 30, 2012 are not necessarily indicative of results to be expected for the year ending March 31, 2013 or for any future interim period. The condensed consolidated balance sheet at March 31, 2012 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, 2012, and notes thereto included in the Company’s annual report on Form 10-K, which was filed with the SEC on June 21, 2012.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of condensed 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. Actual results could differ from these estimates. Significant estimates and assumptions include reserves and write-downs related to receivables and inventories, the recoverability of long-lived assets, deferred taxes and related valuation allowances, valuation of equity and derivative instruments, debt discounts and estimated amortization periods for upfront fees received from customers. Periodically, the Company evaluates and adjusts estimates accordingly. The allowance for uncollectible accounts receivable balances amounted to $74,000 and $52,000, which are included in accounts receivable, net in the accompanying September 30, 2012 and March 31, 2012 condensed consolidated balance sheets, respectively. The reserve for excess and obsolete inventory balances amounted to $129,000 and $105,000, which are included in inventories, net in the accompanying September 30, 2012 and March 31, 2012 condensed consolidated balance sheets, respectively

Reclassifications

Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified for comparative purposes to conform to the fiscal 2013 presentation. These reclassifications have no impact on the Company’s previously reported net loss.

Net Loss per Share

Common Stock Purchase Warrants and Other Derivative Financial Instruments

The Company classifies common stock purchase warrants and other free standing derivative financial instruments as equity if the contracts (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 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), (ii) give the counterparty a choice of net-cash settlement or settlement in shares (physical settlement or net-share settlement), or (iii) contain reset provisions as either an asset or a liability. The Company assesses classification of its freestanding derivatives at each reporting date to determine whether a change in classification between assets and liabilities is required. The Company determined that its freestanding derivatives, which principally consist of warrants to purchase common stock, satisfied the criteria for classification as equity instruments at September 30, 2012, other than certain warrants that contain reset provisions and certain warrants that require net-cash settlement that the Company classified as derivative liabilities as more fully described in Note 5.

Preferred Stock

Shares that are subject to mandatory redemption (if any) are classified as liability instruments and are measured at fair value. The Company classifies conditionally redeemable preferred shares, which includes preferred shares that feature redemption rights that are either within the control of the holder or subject to redemption upon the occurrence of uncertain events not solely within the Company’s control, as temporary equity.

Convertible Instruments

The Company evaluates and bifurcates conversion options from their host instruments and accounts for them as free standing derivative financial instruments according to certain criteria. The criteria include circumstances in which (a) the economic characteristics and risks of the embedded derivative instrument are not clearly and closely related to the economic characteristics and risks of the host contract, (b) the hybrid instrument that embodies both the embedded derivative instrument and the host contract is not re-measured at fair value under otherwise applicable generally accepted accounting principles with changes in fair value reported in earnings as they occur and (c) a separate instrument with the same terms as the embedded derivative instrument would be considered a derivative instrument. An exception to this rule is when the host instrument is deemed to be conventional as that term is described under applicable Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“GAAP”).

Fair Value of Financial Assets and Liabilities

Financial instruments, including cash and cash equivalents, accounts payable and accrued liabilities are carried at cost, which management believes approximates fair value due to the short-term nature of these instruments. The fair value of capital lease obligations and equipment loans approximates their carrying amounts as a market rate of interest is attached to their repayment. The Company measures the fair value of financial assets and liabilities based on the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. The Company maximizes the use of observable inputs and minimizes the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. The Company uses three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value:

Level 1 — quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities

Level 2 — quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets or inputs that are observable

Level 3 — inputs that are unobservable (for example cash flow modeling inputs based on assumptions)

Financial liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis are summarized below:

Level 3 liabilities are valued using unobservable inputs to the valuation methodology that are significant to the measurement of the fair value of the derivate liabilities. For fair value measurements categorized within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy, the Company’s accounting and finance department, who report to the Chief Financial Officer, determine its valuation policies and procedures.  The development and determination of the unobservable inputs for Level 3 fair value measurements and fair value calculations are the responsibility of the Company’s accounting and finance department and are approved by the Chief Financial Officer.

Level 3 Valuation Techniques:

Level 3 financial liabilities consist of the derivative liabilities for which there is no current market for these securities such that the determination of fair value requires significant judgment or estimation.  Changes in fair value measurements categorized within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy are analyzed each period based on changes in estimates or assumptions and recorded as appropriate.

The Company uses the Black-Scholes option valuation model to value Level 3 financial liabilities at inception and on subsequent valuation dates.  This model incorporates transaction details such as the Company’s stock price, contractual terms, maturity, risk free rates, as well as volatility.

A significant decrease in the volatility or a significant decrease in the Company’s stock price, in isolation, would result in a significantly lower fair value measurement. Changes in the values of the derivative liabilities are recorded in “(Loss) gain due to change in fair value of derivative instruments” in the Company’s condensed consolidated statements of operations.

As of September 30, 2012, there were no transfers in or out of Level 3 from other levels in the fair value hierarchy.

Subsequent Events

Management has evaluated subsequent events or transactions occurring through the date the financial statements were issued (Note 11).

The Company reported a net loss of $1,074,000 for the six months ended September 30, 2012. At September 30, 2012, the Company’s accumulated deficit amounted to $133,388,000. The Company had working capital of $4,996,000 as of September 30, 2012. The Company may need to raise additional capital from external sources in order to continue the longer term efforts contemplated under its business plan. The Company expects to continue incurring losses for the foreseeable future and may need to raise additional capital to pursue its product development initiatives, penetrate markets for the sale of its products and continue as a going concern.

On April 22, 2012, the Company entered into agreements with various investors to issue up to: a) 2,360,001 shares of common stock; b) 1,000 shares of Series A 0% Convertible Preferred Stock (the “Series A Preferred Stock”); and c) warrants to purchase up to 3,471,112 shares of common stock (the “Warrants”). The Company also offered up to 1,111,111 shares of common stock issuable upon conversion of the Series A Preferred Stock and 3,471,112 shares of common stock in the event the Warrants are exercised. The Warrants have an initial exercise price of $1.18 per share, are not exercisable for six months from the date of issuance, and have an exercise term of 2.5 years from the date of issuance. The Company received approximately $3,124,000 in gross proceeds from the sale of these securities. Net proceeds after deducting the placement agent commissions, legal expenses and other offering expenses, and assuming no exercise of the Warrants, was $2,832,000. The Company retained Rodman & Renshaw, LLC as the exclusive placement agent for this offering, and paid them $218,680 in placement agent commissions. On May 4, 2012, the investor converted 1,000 shares of the Series A Preferred Stock purchased in the transaction into 1,111,111 shares of common stock.

The Company currently anticipates that its cash and cash equivalents will be sufficient to meet its working capital requirements to continue its sales and marketing and research and development through at least October 1, 2013. However, in order to execute the Company’s long-term Microcyn® product development strategy and to penetrate new and existing markets, the Company may need to raise additional funds through public or private equity offerings, debt financings, corporate collaborations or other means.

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 needed. 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 costs in order to conserve its cash.

Legal Matters

On July 25, 2011, the Company received notice of a lawsuit filed in Mexico by Cesar Mangotich Pacheco and Prodinnv, S.A. de C.V. represented by Cesar Mangotich Pacheco. The lawsuit appears to allege conversion of assets, tortious interference and defamation, among other claims. The Company is currently evaluating the lawsuit, conferring with local counsel and translating the documents it has received. The Company’s preliminary assessment is that the lawsuit is completely without merit and intends to vigorously defend its position. The Company has not accrued a loss reserve for this matter.

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 with Executives

As of September 30, 2012, the Company had employment agreements in place 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 September 30, 2012, potential severance amounted to $1,918,000 and aggregated annual salaries amounted to $1,360,000.

Commercial Agreements

On February 14, 2011, the Company announced the formation of a broad multi-year collaboration with Amneal Enterprises to realize the development and commercial potential of Microcyn® Technology. Amneal Enterprises is an affiliation of independent pharmaceutical marketing, discovery and development companies.  As a part of this collaboration, the Company entered into a product option agreement with an Amneal affiliate, AmDerma Pharmaceuticals, LLC (“AmDerma”) and the Company sold the option to exclusively sell and distribute the future Microcyn-based acne product to AmDerma for a one-time non-refundable payment of $500,000. On June 23, 2011, AmDerma exercised its option to license rights to the drug candidate. 

On June 21, 2012, the Company entered into a collaboration agreement with AmDerma (the “Collaboration Agreement”). Pursuant to the Collaboration Agreement, AmDerma is responsible for the development of a Microcyn-based acne drug candidate in the United States, including all activities required to gain regulatory approvals. AmDerma will also be responsible for all costs. Additionally, within one year of the first commercial sale by AmDerma, AmDerma shall identify at least one secondary indication that AmDerma will develop. If AmDerma declines to pursue such secondary indication, then the right to develop such secondary indication will revert back to the Company. The Company granted AmDerma an exclusive, royalty-bearing perpetual license in the United States and India, with the right to sublicense and subcontract in certain circumstances, and a right of first refusal to expand the territory of the license to include the European Union, Canada, Brazil, and Japan. The Company retained rights to the “rest of world.” The aforementioned option payment of $500,000 will be applied against future milestone payments in the transaction. This amount is recorded as deferred revenue in the September 30, 2012 and March 31, 2012 accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets.

On August 9, 2012, the Company, along with its Mexican subsidiary and manufacturer Oculus Technologies of Mexico S.A. de C.V. (“Manufacturer”), entered into a license, exclusive distribution and supply agreement with More Pharma Corporation, S. de R.L. de C.V. (“More Pharma”) (the “License Agreement”). For a one-time payment of $500,000, the Company granted More Pharma an exclusive license, with the right to sublicense under certain conditions and with the Company’s consent, to all of the Company’s proprietary rights related to certain of its pharmaceutical products for human application that utilize the Company’s Microcyn® Technology within Mexico. For an additional one-time payment of $3,000,000, the Company also agreed to appoint More Pharma as the exclusive distributor of certain of its products in Mexico for the term of the agreement. Additionally, Manufacturer granted More Pharma an exclusive license to certain of Manufacturer’s then-held trademarks in exchange for a payment of $100,000 to Manufacturer. The Company has the ability to terminate the agreement if certain annual purchase minimums are not met. The term of the agreement is twenty-five years from the effective date of August 15, 2012 (the “Effective Date”). The term of the License Agreement will automatically renew after the twenty-five year term for successive two year terms as long as More Pharma has materially complied with any and all of the obligations under the License Agreement, including but not limited to, meeting the minimum purchase requirements set forth therein.

Additionally, also on August 9, 2012, the Company, along with Manufacturer, also entered into an exclusive distribution and supply agreement with More Pharma (the “Distribution Agreement”). For a one-time payment of $1,500,000, the Company granted More Pharma exclusive ability to market and sell certain of its pharmaceutical products for human application that utilize the Company’s Microcyn® Technology. The Company also appointed More Pharma as its exclusive distributor, with the right to execute sub-distribution agreements under certain conditions and with the Company’s consent, within the following countries: Antigua & Barbuda, Argentina, Aruba & Curacao, Bahamas, Barbados, Belize, Bolivia, Bonaire, Brazil, British Guyana, British Islands, Cayman Islands, Chile, Colombia, Cuba, Dominica, Dominican Republic, Ecuador, El Salvador, French Guyana, Grenada, Guadalupe, Guatemala, Haiti, Honduras, Jamaica, Martinique, Nicaragua, Paraguay, Peru, St. Bartolome, St. Vincent & Grenades, Surinam, Trinidad & Tobago, Turks & Caicos Islands, Uruguay, Venezuela and Virgin Islands (the “Territory”).

The Company will recognize the $5,100,000 related to the License Agreement and the Distribution Agreement as revenue on a straight line basis consistent with the Company’s historical experience with contracts with similar terms, which is typically over three to five years of the contract. Additionally, the Company capitalized $214,000 of its transaction costs related to the agreements, which will be amortized by the Company as expense on a straight line basis consistent with the related revenue recognition practices. At September 30, 2012, the Company had outstanding accounts receivable of $444,000 related to its transaction with More Pharma. During the three months ended September 30, 2012, the Company recognized $183,000 as revenue related to the upfront fees of the transaction and recognized $8,000 as an expense. The Company will recognize upcoming product sales on a sell-through basis as More Pharma sells products through to its customers.

Related Party Agreements

On January 26, 2009, the Company entered into a commercial agreement with VetCure, Inc., a California corporation, to market and sell its Vetericyn products. VetCure, Inc. later changed its name to Vetericyn, Inc., which, at the time, was wholly-owned by Mr. Robert Burlingame. This agreement was amended on February 24, 2009, July 24, 2009, June 1, 2010, and November 1, 2010. Pursuant to the agreement, the Company provides Vetericyn, Inc. with bulk product and Vetericyn, Inc. bottles, packages, and sells Vetericyn products. The Company receives a fixed amount for each bottle of Vetericyn sold by Vetericyn, Inc. At the time of these 2009 transactions, Vetericyn was wholly-owned by Mr. Burlingame, who was also a director of the Company at that time. Mr. Burlingame resigned from the Company’s board of directors on February 10, 2010.  After his resignation, Mr. Burlingame continued to own a significant portion of the Company’s stock from a transaction in 2009. To the Company’s knowledge, he ceased being a holder of more than 5% of its common stock in 2010.

On September 15, 2009, the Company entered a commercial agreement with V&M Industries, Inc., a California corporation, to market and sell its Microcyn over-the-counter liquid and gel products.  V&M Industries, Inc. subsequently changed its name to Innovacyn, Inc. On June 1, 2010, September 1, 2010, and November 1, 2010, the Company amended this agreement granting Innovacyn, Inc. the exclusive right to sell certain of its over-the-counter products. At the time of the 2009 transaction, V&M Industries, Inc. was wholly-owned by Robert Burlingame, who was also a director of the Company at that time. Mr. Burlingame resigned from the Company’s board of directors on February 10, 2010.  After his resignation, Mr. Burlingame continued to own a significant portion of the Company’s stock from a transaction in 2009. To the Company’s knowledge, he ceased being a holder of more than 5% of its common stock in 2010.

Additionally, beginning on July 1, 2011, the Company shares profits related to Vetericyn and Microcyn over-the-counter sales. During the three months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011, the Company recorded revenue related to these agreements in the amounts of $1,229,000 and $1,176,000, respectively. During the six months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011, the Company recorded revenue related to these agreements in the amounts of $2,365,000 and $1,739,000, respectively. The revenue is recorded in product revenues in the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of operations. At September 30, 2012 and March 31, 2012, the Company had outstanding accounts receivable of $375,000 and $290,000, respectively, related to Innovacyn, Inc.

Other Matters

On May 21, 2012, the Company received a letter from the Listing Qualifications staff of The NASDAQ Stock Market LLC (“NASDAQ”), notifying the Company that, for the previous 30 consecutive business days, it has failed to comply with NASDAQ Listing Rule 5550(b)(2), which requires the Company to maintain a minimum Market Value of Listed Securities of $35 million for continued listing on the NASDAQ Capital Market. The letter also noted that the Company did not meet the alternative requirements under Listing Rules 5550(b)(1) or 5550(b)(3).

In accordance with Listing Rule 5810(c)(3)(C), NASDAQ has granted the Company a period of 180 calendar days, or until November 19, 2012, to regain compliance with the Rule. The Company may regain compliance with the Listing Rule at any time during this compliance period if its Market Value of Listed Securities closes at $35 million or more for a minimum of ten consecutive business days.

The letter has no effect on the listing or trading of the Company’s common stock at this time. However, there can be no assurance that the Company will be able to regain compliance with Listing Rule 5550(b)(2) or the other compliance alternatives under Listing Rule 5550(b). In the event the Company does not regain compliance with the Listing Rule prior to the expiration of the compliance period, it will receive written notification that its securities are subject to delisting, at which time the Company may appeal the delisting determination to a Hearings Panel.

On June 18, 2012, the Company received a letter from the Listing Qualifications staff of NASDAQ, notifying the Company that, for the previous 30 consecutive business days, it has failed to comply with NASDAQ Listing Rule 5550(a)(2), which requires the Company to maintain a minimum bid price of $1 per share for its common stock.

In accordance with Listing Rule 5810(c)(3)(C), NASDAQ has granted the Company a period of 180 calendar days, or until December 17, 2012, to regain compliance with the Rule. The Company may regain compliance with the Rule at any time during this compliance period if the minimum bid price for its common stock is at least $1 for a minimum of ten consecutive business days.

The letter has no effect on the listing or trading of the Company’s common stock at this time. However, there can be no assurance that the Company will be able to regain compliance with Listing Rule 5550(a)(2). In the event the Company does not regain compliance with the Listing Rule prior to the expiration of the compliance period, the Company may be eligible for additional time. To qualify, the Company will be required to meet the continued listing requirement for market value of publicly held shares and all other initial listing standards for NASDAQ Capital Market, with the exception of the bid price requirement, and will need to provide written notice of its intention to cure the deficiency during the second compliance period, by effecting a reverse split, if necessary. If the Company meets these requirements, NASDAQ will inform the Company that it has been granted an additional 180 calendar days. However, if it appears to the Staff of NASDAQ that the Company will not be able to cure the deficiency, or if the Company is otherwise not eligible, NASDAQ will provide notice that its securities will be subject to delisting.

The Company considers financial instruments which do not have fixed settlement provisions to be derivative instruments. The common stock purchase warrants issued with the Company’s August 13, 2007 private placement, and the common stock purchase warrants issued to the placement agent in the transaction, do not have fixed settlement provisions because their exercise prices may be lowered if the Company issues securities at lower prices in the future. The Company was required to include the reset provisions in order to protect the warrant holders from the potential dilution associated with future financings. At issuance, the warrants were recognized as equity instruments and have since been re-characterized as derivative liabilities. Accordingly, the warrant obligations are adjusted to fair value at the end of each reporting period with the change in value reported in the statement of operations. Such fair values were estimated using the Black-Scholes valuation model. Although the Company determined the common stock warrants include an implied down-side protection feature, it performed a Monte-Carlo simulation and concluded that the value of the feature is de minimis between the two models and the use of the Black-Scholes valuation model is considered to be a reasonable method to value the warrants.

The derivative liability related to warrants without fixed settlement provisions were valued using the Black-Scholes option valuation model and the following assumptions on the following dates:

The Company deems financial instruments which require net-cash settlement as either an asset or a liability. The common stock purchase warrants issued with the Company’s April 22, 2012 registered direct offering contain a net-cash settlement feature which gives the warrant holder the right to net-cash settlement in the event certain transactions occur. Pursuant to the terms of the warrants, if such a transaction occurs the warrant holder will be entitled to a net-cash settlement value calculated using the Black-Scholes valuation model using an expected volatility equal to the greater of 100% and the 100 day volatility obtained from the HVT function on Bloomberg, an expected term equal to the remaining term of the warrant, and applicable risk-free interest rate corresponding to the U.S. Treasury. Accordingly, the fair value of the warrant obligation was determined at the date of issuance and was adjusted to fair value at the end of the reporting period using the Black-Scholes valuation model. The change in value reported from issue date to the reporting date was recorded in the accompanying condensed consolidated statement of operations.

The derivative liability related to warrants with net-cash settlement provisions were valued using the Black-Scholes option valuation model and the following assumptions on the following dates:

The Company will continue to adjust the derivative liabilities for changes in fair value until the earlier of the exercise, at which time the liability will be reclassified to stockholders’ deficiency, or expiration of the warrants.

The following table sets forth a summary of the changes in the fair value of our Level 3 financial liabilities that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis:

Registered Direct Offering

On April 22, 2012, the Company entered into agreements with various investors to issue up to: a) 2,360,001 shares of common stock; b) 1,000 shares of Series A Preferred Stock; and c) warrants to purchase up to 3,471,112 shares of common stock. The Company also offered up to 1,111,111 shares of common stock issuable upon conversion of the Series A Preferred Stock. The Company received approximately $3,124,000 in gross proceeds from the sale of these securities. Net proceeds after deducting the placement agent commissions, legal expenses and other offering expenses, and assuming no exercise of the warrants, was $2,832,000. The Company retained Rodman & Renshaw, LLC as the exclusive placement agent for this offering, and paid them $218,680 in placement agent commissions. Following the close of the transaction, the investor converted 1,000 shares of the Series A Preferred Stock purchased in the transaction into 1,111,111 shares of common stock.

In connection with the convertible preferred stock, the Company determined the instrument contained a beneficial conversion feature at the date of issuance. This beneficial conversion feature amounted to $1,062,000 and was recorded as a deemed preferred dividend on the condensed consolidated statement of statement of operations for the six months ended September 30, 2012.

The warrants issued with the offering have an initial exercise price of $1.18 per share, are not exercisable for six months from the date of issuance, and have an exercise term of 2.5 years from the date of issuance. Additionally, the common stock purchase warrants contain a net-cash settlement feature which gives the warrant holder the right to net-cash settlement in the event certain transactions occur. Pursuant to the terms of the warrants, if such a transaction occurs the warrant holder will be entitled to a net-cash settlement value calculated using the Black-Scholes valuation model using specific volatility, expected term and risk-free interest rate assumptions, as detailed in the warrants (Note 5).

Common Stock Issued to Service Providers

On April 24, 2009, the Company entered into an agreement with Advocos LLC, a contract sales organization that serves as part of the Company’s sales force for the sale of wound care products in the United States. Pursuant to the agreement, the Company agreed to pay the contract sales organization a monthly fee and potential bonuses that will be based on achievement of certain levels of sales. Additionally, the Company agreed to issue the contract sales organization shares of common stock as compensation for its services. The Company has determined that the fair value of the common stock was more readily determinable than the fair value of the services rendered. Accordingly, the Company recorded the fair market value of the stock as compensation expense. During the three months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011, the Company issued 26,096 and 24,587 shares of common stock, respectively, in connection with this agreement.  During the three months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011, the Company recorded $20,000 and $44,000 of stock compensation expense related to this agreement, respectively. During the six months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011, the Company issued 100,743 and 49,587 shares of common stock, respectively, in connection with this agreement.  During the six months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011, the Company recorded $112,000 and $92,000 of stock compensation expense related to this agreement, respectively. The expense was recorded as selling, general and administrative expense in the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of operations.

On April 1, 2011, the Company entered into an agreement with NetGain Financial, Inc., for providing financial advisory services. Pursuant to the agreement, the Company agreed to pay NetGain Financial common stock as compensation for services provided.  The Company determined that the fair value of the common stock was more readily determinable than the fair value of the services rendered. Accordingly, the Company recorded the fair market value of the stock as compensation expense. During the three months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011, the Company issued 150,000 and 30,000 shares of common stock, respectively, in connection with this agreement.  During the three months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011, the Company recorded $146,000 and $52,000 of stock compensation expense related to this agreement, respectively. During the six months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011, the Company issued 150,000 and 60,000 shares of common stock, respectively, in connection with this agreement.  During the six months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011, the Company recorded $146,000 and $110,000 of stock compensation expense related to this agreement, respectively. The expense was recorded as selling, general and administrative expense in the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of operations.

Anti-dilution Adjustments

Pursuant to anti-dilution provisions contained in the August 13, 2007 private placement and in the placement agent warrant agreement, for various financing transactions and common stock issuances, the Company is required to adjust the exercise price and the number of warrants held by each warrant holder under these agreements.  Over-time, the exercise price for the warrants has been adjusted from the original exercise price of $9.50 to $3.75.  At September 30, 2012 and March 31, 2012, there were 838,172 and 762,876 warrants outstanding that contain this anti-dilution provision, respectively.  During the three months ended September 30, 2012, the Company reduced the exercise price from $3.76 to $3.75 and issued an additional aggregate of 2,237 warrants as a result of shares issued to service providers. During the six months ended September 30, 2012, the Company reduced the exercise price from $4.32 to $3.75 and issued an additional aggregate of 75,296 warrants as a result of the dilutive effect of the April 22, 2012 registered direct offering and due to shares issued to service providers in a separate transaction. The warrants were classified as derivative liabilities in the September 30, 2012 and March 31, 2012 condensed consolidated balance sheets.

The Company accounts for share-based awards exchanged for employee services at the estimated grant date fair value of the award. The Company amortizes the fair value of employee stock options on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period of the awards.  Compensation expense includes the impact of an estimate for forfeitures for all stock options. The estimated forfeiture rates used during the six months ended September 30, 2012 ranged from 2.47% to 2.50%.

Employee stock-based compensation expense is as follows (in thousands):

At September 30, 2012, there were unrecognized compensation costs of $1,681,000 related to stock options which is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average amortization period of 2.09 years.

The Company estimated the fair value of employee stock options 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 periods of the respective awards. The fair value of employee stock options was estimated using the following weighted-average assumptions:

The weighted-average fair value of options granted during the three and six months ended September 30, 2012 was $0.68. The weighted-average fair value of options granted during the three and six months ended September 30, 2011 was $1.02 and $1.23, respectively.

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 the Securities and Exchange Commission's Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 110 for “plain vanilla” options. 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 become 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. The Company estimates forfeitures based on historical experience and reduces compensation expense accordingly.

A summary of all option activity as of September 30, 2012 and changes during the six months then ended is presented below:

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 ($0.94) for stock options that were in-the-money as of September 30, 2012.

The Company did not capitalize any cost associated with stock-based compensation.

No income tax benefit has been recognized related to stock-based compensation expense and no tax benefits have been realized from exercised stock options.

The Company issues new shares of common stock upon exercise of stock options.

The Company is not aware of any changes in ownership that would result in a change in control under Internal Revenue Code Section 382. The Company, after considering all available evidence, fully reserved for these assets 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, 2012.  Accordingly, the Company is continuing to fully reserve for its 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 standards, the valuation allowance will be reduced accordingly.

As a result of certain realization requirements of the Company’s deferred tax assets and liabilities do not include certain deferred tax assets at September 30, 2012 that arose directly from tax deductions related to equity compensation in excess of compensation recognized for financial reporting purposes.  Equity will be increased by approximately $533,000 if and when such deferred tax assets are ultimately realized. 

The Company only recognizes tax benefits from an uncertain tax position 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. To date, the Company has not recognized such tax benefits in its financial statements.

The Company has identified its federal tax return and its state tax return in California as major tax jurisdictions. The Company also filed tax returns in foreign jurisdictions, principally Mexico and The Netherlands. The Company’s evaluation of uncertain tax matters was performed for tax years ended through March 31, 2012. Generally, the Company is subject to audit for the years ended March 31, 2011, 2010 and 2009 and may be subject to audit for amounts relating to net operating loss carryforwards generated in periods prior to March 31, 2009. The Company has elected to retain its existing accounting policy with respect to the treatment of interest and penalties attributable to income taxes, 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.

The Company generates revenues from wound care products which are sold into the human and animal health care markets and the Company also generates revenues from laboratory testing services which are provided to medical device manufacturers. The Company operates a single segment business which consists of three geographical sales territories as follows (in thousands):

For the three months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011, the Company received licensing revenues of $374,000 and $94,000, respectively. Such revenues are included in the Company’s calculation of product revenues and are reflected in the table above under the respective geographic region where such licensing revenues were earned. For the six months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011, the Company received licensing revenues of $406,000 and $189,000, respectively. Such revenues are included in the Company’s calculation of product revenues and are reflected in the table above under the respective geographic region where such licensing revenues were earned.

The Company’s service revenues amounted to $262,000 and $273,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively, and the Company’s service revenues amounted to $497,000 and $503,000 for the six months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively.

For the three months ended September 30, 2012, one customer represented 27% of net revenue, and for the three months ended September 30, 2011, one customer represented 32% of net revenue. 

For the six months ended September 30, 2012, one customer represented 28% of net revenue, and for the six months ended September 30, 2011, one customer represented 26% of net revenue.

At September 30, 2012, one customer represented 11%, one customer represented 13%, and one customer represented 16% of the net accounts receivable balance. At March 31, 2012, one customer represented 13% and two customers each, respectively, represented 12% of the net accounts receivable balance.

Property Lease Agreements

On October 10, 2012, the Company entered into Amendment No. 7 to its property lease agreement, extending the lease on its Petaluma, California facility to September 30, 2017. Pursuant to the amendment, in exchange for certain improvements on the building, the Company agreed to increase the lease payment from $10,380 to $11,072 per month.

The Company has also entered into a property lease agreement for two properties in Sacramento, California:

On August 30, 2012, the Company entered into an amendment to its lease dated October 31, 2011 for the property located at 3045 65th Street, Suite 13, Sacramento, California 95820, to amend the lease to include a 3,000 square foot industrial unit located at 3021 65th Street, Sacramento, California, and to extend the lease on both properties to October 31, 2013. The total rent for both properties is $2,610 per month.

Agreement to Extend the Expiration Date of Warrants in Exchange for the Removal of Certain Settlement Features in Those Warrants

On October 29, 2012, the Company entered into a side letter agreement with Sabby Healthcare Volatility Master Fund, Ltd. and Sabby Volatility Warrant Master Fund, Ltd. (collectively, “Sabby”) to amend the terms of the warrants issued to Sabby in conjunction with the Company’s April 22, 2012 registered direct offering. Pursuant to the amendment, Sabby agreed to waive certain net-cash settlement features contained in the warrants in exchange for the Company’s agreement to a two-year extension of the expiration date of the warrants. Accordingly, the expiration date of the warrants issued to Sabby in connection with the April 22, 2012 financing was extended from October 25, 2014 to October 25, 2016. No other terms, rights or provisions of the purchase agreement or warrants were modified by the terms of the side letter agreement.

Restructuring of Debt for Shares of the Company’s Common Stock

On May 1, 2010, the Company entered into a loan and security agreement and a supplement to the loan and security agreement with Venture Lending & Leasing V, Inc., to borrow up to an aggregate of $3,000,000. In connection with those agreements, the Company issued two warrants to Venture Lending & Leasing V, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“LLC5”), which, in the aggregate, have a total put option cash value of $750,000 (the “VLL5 Warrants”).

On June 29, 2011, the Company entered into a loan and security agreement and a supplement to the loan and security agreement with Venture Lending & Leasing VI, Inc., to borrow up to an aggregate of up to $2,500,000. In connection with those agreements, the Company issued three warrants to Venture Lending & Leasing VI, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“LLC6”), which, in the aggregate, have a total put option cash value of $1,250,000 (the “VLL6 Warrants”).

On October 30, 2012, the Company entered into a stock purchase agreement with LLC5 and LLC6 for the issuance to LLC5 and LLC6 of shares of common stock having an aggregate fair market value equal to $3,500,000, in exchange for LLC5’s agreement to surrender the VLL5 Warrants and LLC6’s agreement to surrender the VLL6 Warrants. The number of shares issued pursuant to the stock purchase agreement was calculated based upon a price of $0.810 per share, the consolidated closing bid price as reported by The NASDAQ Capital Market for October 26, 2012, the previous trading day’s consolidated closing bid price. Accordingly, on November 1, 2012, the Company issued an aggregate of 4,320,985 restricted shares of common stock to LL5 and LL6, pursuant to the terms of the stock purchase agreement.

Our Business

We are a commercial healthcare company that designs, produces, and markets innovative, safe and effective drugs, devices, and nutritional products. We are pioneering innovative products for the dermatology, surgical, wound care, and animal healthcare markets. Our primary focus is on our proprietary technology platform called Microcyn® Technology. This technology is based on electrically charged oxychlorine small molecules designed to target 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, as well as Clostridium difficile, or C. diff, a highly contagious bacteria spread by human contact. Several Microcyn® Technology tissue care products are designed to treat infections and enhance healing while reducing the need for antibiotics. Infection is a serious potential complication in both chronic and acute wounds, and controlling infection is a critical step in wound healing.

We do not have the necessary regulatory approvals to market Microcyn® as a drug or as a medical device with an antimicrobial or wound healing indication in the United States. In the future, we expect to apply with the U.S. Food and Drug Administration, or FDA, for clearance as an antimicrobial in a liquid and a hydrogel form.

Outside the United States, our Microcyn® Technology products have a CE Mark device approval in Europe for debriding, irrigating and moistening acute and chronic wounds in comprehensive wound treatment by reducing microbial load and creating a moist environment. In Mexico, we are approved as a drug for antiseptic treatment of wounds and infected areas. In India, our technology has a drug license for cleaning and debriding in wound management.  In China, we have obtained a medical device approval by the State Food and Drug Administration for reducing the propagation of microbes in wounds and creating a moist environment for wound healing.

While we do not have the necessary regulatory clearance for an antimicrobial or wound healing indication in the United States, several factors including global product experience, clinical and laboratory testing, physician-led clinical studies based on our technology, and scientific papers authored on our technology, suggest that our Microcyn® Technology 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-led clinical studies suggest that our Microcyn® Technology is safe, easy to use and complementary to many existing treatment methods in wound care. Physician-led clinical studies and usage in the United States suggest that our 510(k) cleared products 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® Technology platform in other markets outside of wound and skin care, including the respiratory, ophthalmology, dental, dermatology, animal healthcare and industrial markets.

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 and we believe Microcyn® Technology can fill a niche in the chronic and acute wound care markets.

We believe Microcyn® Technology is a stable, anti-infective therapeutic that treats infections and enhances wound healing through increased blood flow to the wound bed and reduction of chronic inflammation. Also, we believe Microcyn® Technology 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. We believe that unlike antibiotics, antiseptics, growth regulators and other advanced wound care products, Microcyn® Technology is a stable wound care solution that is as safe as saline, and also treats infection while simultaneously accelerating wound healing. Also, unlike most antibiotics, we believe Microcyn® Technology 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, non-toxic, require no special preparation and are easy to use.

In December 2011, we initiated a voluntary recall of select lot numbers of certain of our Microcyn-based products due to product labeling. The voluntary recall was prompted after notification by the FDA that a limited number of our products were improperly labeled. The recall has been classified by the FDA as a Class II recall, which means the probability of serious health consequences is remote. Customer safety and product quality are critically important to us and to date, we have received no complaints regarding customer safety or product quality issues. The costs of the voluntary recall were nominal and there were no restrictions on our future sales of Microcyn-based products, other than revising our product labeling for certain products. The voluntary recall did not materially impact revenues.

Sales and Marketing

In the quarter ending December 31, 2008, our initial sales were in the podiatry market in the United States. In the second quarter of 2009, we expanded our sales efforts to include wound care centers, hospitals, nursing homes, urgent care clinics and home healthcare, utilizing a contract sales organization to aid our sales force. We continue to seek opportunities to expand the applicability of our products. Our products are purchased by, among others, hospitals, physicians, nurses, and other healthcare practitioners who are the primary caregivers to patients being treated for acute or chronic wounds or undergoing surgical procedures as well as to dermatologists for treatment of various skin afflictions.

We currently make Microcyn-based human wound and skin care products available, both as prescription and over-the-counter products, under our seven 510(k) clearances in the United States, primarily through a combination of partnerships with Advocos LLC, a specialty U.S. contract sales organization, and with such partners as Amneal Enterprises, PreCision Dermatology and Eloquest Healthcare, Inc., a subsidiary of Ferndale Pharma, Inc., described in greater detail below. Specifically, we have announced the commercialization of a Microcyn® product for wound care sold through a combination of contract and commissioned sales forces and by Eloquest Healthcare, and the commercialization of Microcyn® products for dermatology through partnerships with Quinnova Pharmaceuticals and PreCision Dermatology.

Additionally, through our partner Innovacyn, Inc., we currently make available Microcyn® Technology-based animal healthcare products branded as Vetericyn in the United States and Europe. We plan to introduce these products into Canada and Innovacyn has received approval from Health Canada to begin marketing our products in their country. In the future, we plan to expand the sales and marketing of our Microcyn® Technology-based animal healthcare products to Asia.

We intend to pursue additional regulatory approvals in Europe, China, India and Mexico for our Microcyn® Technology tissue care products and plan to initiate commercialization upon obtaining these approvals.

Animal Healthcare

On January 26, 2009, we entered into a commercial agreement with VetCure, Inc., a California corporation, to market and sell our Vetericyn products. VetCure, Inc. later changed its name to Vetericyn, Inc., which, at the time, was wholly owned by Mr. Robert Burlingame. This agreement was amended on February 24, 2009, July 24, 2009, June 1, 2010, and November 1, 2010. Pursuant to the agreement, we provide Vetericyn, Inc. with bulk product and Vetericyn, Inc. bottles, packages, and sells Vetericyn products. We receive a fixed amount for each bottle of Vetericyn sold by Vetericyn, Inc. At the time of each of these 2009 transactions, Vetericyn was wholly owned by Mr. Burlingame, who was also our Director at that time. Mr. Burlingame resigned from our Board on February 10, 2010. After his resignation, Mr. Burlingame continued to own a significant portion of our stock from a transaction with us in 2009. To our knowledge, he ceased being a holder of more than 5% of our common stock in 2010.

On September 15, 2009, we entered a commercial agreement with V&M Industries, Inc., a California corporation, to market and sell our Microcyn over-the-counter liquid and gel products. V&M Industries, Inc. subsequently changed their name to Innovacyn, Inc.  On June 1, 2010, September 1, 2010, and November 1, 2010, we amended this agreement granting Innovacyn, Inc. the exclusive right to sell certain of our over-the-counter products. On May 13, 2010, Innovacyn received confirmation from Health Canada that it has approval to market these veterinary products in the Canadian market as well. At the time of the 2009 transaction, V&M Industries, Inc. was wholly owned by Robert Burlingame, who was also our Director at that time. Mr. Burlingame resigned from our Board on February 10, 2010. After his resignation, Mr. Burlingame continued to own a significant portion of our stock from a transaction with us in 2009. To our knowledge, he ceased being a holder of more than 5% of our common stock in 2010.

Acute Care in U.S. Hospitals

On August 1, 2011, we entered into a multi-year licensing agreement with Eloquest Healthcare, Inc., a subsidiary of Ferndale Pharma Group, Inc. Under this agreement, we granted Eloquest Healthcare an exclusive license to market certain Microcyn-based wound care products under the Eloquest Healthcare brand to hospitals, ambulatory surgical and acute care centers in the United States. In March 2012, Ferndale/ Eloquest launched a family of Microcyn-based wound care products.

Critical Care

On August 22, 2011, we entered into an agreement to license the exclusive global rights to a unique endotracheal tube, or ETT, from the National Institutes of Health. We believe the ETT represents a potential breakthrough technology in mitigating ventilator-associated pneumonia. Under the licensing agreement, we agreed to pay a nonrefundable royalty of $20,000 within sixty days of the effective date of the agreement, minimum annual royalties of $5,000, and additional royalties based off of net sales from use of the license. The patent term of the ETT expires on March 15, 2025. The ETT requires a device clearance in the United States and we expect to obtain such clearance in the near future.  

Dermatology

On November 8, 2010, we announced a definitive agreement with Onset Therapeutics, now called PreCision Dermatology, Inc. Under this agreement, PreCision Dermatology combined our Microcyn® hydrogel with its new skin barrier product into a prescription convenience kit. The kit was launched in the first quarter of 2011 and sales are targeted toward patients with atopic dermatitis and related conditions. PreCision Dermatology has a sales force of about 35 people whom market a complete line of dermatology products throughout the United States.

On February 14, 2011, we announced the formation of a broad multi-year collaboration with Amneal Enterprises to realize the development and commercial potential of Microcyn® Technology. Amneal Enterprises is an affiliation of independent pharmaceutical marketing, discovery and development companies.  As a part of this collaboration, Quinnova Pharmaceuticals, Inc., an Amneal alliance member, has licensed, with a $500,000 prepayment and ongoing double-digit royalties, the U.S. and Canadian rights to the Microcyn-based dermatology atopic dermatitis hydrogel that received FDA clearance in February 2011. Future prescription dermatology products can also be licensed for undisclosed upfront payments.  In addition, Quinnova agreed to co-promote the current prescription Microcyn-based wound care products to podiatry professionals in the United States and Canada. Quinnova has a sales force of over 35 people, selling to dermatologists and podiatrists with a complete line of dermatology products. In addition, Quinnova launched the Atrapro ^TM family of products formulated from Microcyn® Technology platform in late February 2012.

Additionally, we sold the option to exclusively sell and distribute our proprietary Microcyn-based acne drug candidate to AmDerma Pharmaceuticals, LLC, an Amneal alliance member, for a one-time non-refundable payment of $500,000.  On June 23, 2011, AmDerma exercised its option to license rights to the drug candidate. On June 21, 2012, we entered into a collaboration agreement with AmDerma. Pursuant to the agreement, AmDerma is responsible for the development of a Microcyn-based acne drug candidate in the United States, including all activities required to gain regulatory approvals. AmDerma will also be responsible for all costs. Additionally, within one year of the first commercial sale by AmDerma, AmDerma shall identify at least one secondary indication that AmDerma will develop. If AmDerma declines to pursue such secondary indication, then the right to develop such secondary indication will revert back to us. We granted AmDerma an exclusive, royalty-bearing perpetual license in the United States and India, with the right to sublicense and subcontract in certain circumstances, and a right of first refusal to expand the territory of the license to include the European Union, Canada, Brazil, and Japan. We retained rights to the “rest of world.” The option payment of $500,000 will be credited against future milestone payments in the transaction.

International Sales and Marketing by Our Strategic Business Partners

Europe

We currently rely on exclusive agreements with country-specific distributors for the sale of Microcyn-based products in Europe, including in Italy, the Netherlands, Germany, Czech Republic, Sweden, Finland and Denmark.

People’s Republic of China

On January 28, 2011, we entered into an agreement with Tianjin Ascent Import and Export Company, Ltd., a distributor in China, to sell certain of our liquid products, which are currently sold under the product name “Microcyn” in the United States, into the People’s Republic of China. Pursuant to the agreement, we received a $350,000 non-refundable upfront payment from the distributor in return for exclusivity to sell these liquid products for the first contract year. In order to maintain exclusivity in subsequent years, the distributor will need to meet minimum purchase requirements each contract year. The initial term of the contract is for five years and is cancellable if certain conditions are not met.

On June 26, 2011, we entered into an agreement with Shanghai Sunvic Technology Co. Ltd., a distributor in China, to sell certain of our gel products, which are currently sold under the product name “Microcyn” in the United States, into the People’s Republic of China. The initial term of the contract is for five years and is cancellable if certain conditions are not met.

Mexico

On August 9, 2012, we, along with our Mexican subsidiary and manufacturer Oculus Technologies of Mexico S.A. de C.V. (“Manufacturer”), entered into a license, exclusive distribution and supply agreement with More Pharma Corporation, S. de R.L. de C.V. (“More Pharma”) (the “License Agreement”). For a one-time payment of $500,000, we granted More Pharma an exclusive license, with the right to sublicense under certain conditions and with our consent, to all of our proprietary rights related to certain of our pharmaceutical products for human application that utilize our Microcyn Technology within Mexico. For an additional one-time payment of $3,000,000, we also agreed to appoint More Pharma as the exclusive distributor of certain of our products in Mexico for the term of the agreement. Additionally, Manufacturer granted More Pharma an exclusive license to certain of Manufacturer’s then-held trademarks in exchange for a payment of $100,000 to Manufacturer. The term of the agreement is twenty-five years from the effective date of August 15, 2012 (the “Effective Date”). The term of the License Agreement will automatically renew after the twenty-five year term for successive two year terms as long as More Pharma has materially complied with any and all of the obligations under the License Agreement, including but not limited to, meeting the minimum purchase requirements set forth therein.

On August 9, 2012, we, along with Manufacturer, also entered into an exclusive distribution and supply agreement with More Pharma (the “Distribution Agreement”). For a one-time payment of $1,500,000, we granted More Pharma exclusive ability to market and sell certain of our pharmaceutical products for human application that utilize our Microcyn Technology. We also appointed More Pharma as our exclusive distributor, with the right to execute sub-distribution agreements under certain conditions and with our consent, within the following countries: Antigua & Barbuda, Argentina, Aruba & Curacao, Bahamas, Barbados, Belize, Bolivia, Bonaire, Brazil, British Guyana, British Islands, Cayman Islands, Chile, Colombia, Cuba, Dominica, Dominican Republic, Ecuador, El Salvador, French Guyana, Grenada, Guadalupe, Guatemala, Haiti, Honduras, Jamaica, Martinique, Nicaragua, Paraguay, Peru, St. Bartolome, St. Vincent & Grenades, Surinam, Trinidad & Tobago, Turks & Caicos Islands, Uruguay, Venezuela and Virgin Islands (the “Territory”).

“Rest of World”

In India, we entered into an exclusive agreement with Alkem Laboratories, a large pharmaceutical company in India, for the sale of Microcyn-based products in India and Nepal.

Throughout the rest of the world, we intend to use strategic partners and distributors who have a significant sales, marketing and distribution presence in their respective countries. We have established partners and distribution channels for our wound care products in Bangladesh, Pakistan, Singapore, United Arab Emirates and Saudi Arabia.

Nutritional Products

We established a nutritional products division under the name Napa Valley Nutritionals, in the beginning of 2012 to expand our product pipeline. Under this division based out of Sacramento, California, we aim to develop and manufacture medical foods that combine the best of science and nature to create products which provide patients with natural healthcare therapies with a particular focus on the development of products to assist diabetics.

We launched our first nutritional product in April 2012, Glucorein^TM Green Tea with chlorogenic acid, a medical food intended for the dietary management of glucose levels in both pre-diabetics and type 2 diabetics under the supervision of a medical professional. Our product is currently being test-marketed in the United States and by medical professionals. Primary marketing efforts for our nutritional products are directed toward securing the recommendation of our Napa Valley Nutritional brand of products by physicians or other health care professionals.

Competition for nutritional products in the segment is generally from other consumer and healthcare manufacturers. Competitive factors include consumer advertising, formulation, packaging, scientific innovation, intellectual property, price, and availability of product forms. A significant aspect of competition is the search for ingredient innovations. The introduction of new products by competitors, changes in medical practices and procedures, and regulatory changes can result in product obsolescence. In addition, private label and local manufacturers' products may increase competitive pressure.

Contract Testing

We also operate a microbiology contract testing laboratory division that provides consulting and laboratory services to medical companies that design and manufacture biomedical devices and drugs, as well as testing on our products and potential products. Our testing laboratory complies with U.S. Current Good Manufacturing Practices (CGMPs) and Quality Systems Regulations.

Comparison of Three Months Ended September 30, 2012 and 2011

Revenues

Total revenues were $4,526,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2012 compared to $3,663,000 in the quarter ended September 30, 2011. Product revenues increased $874,000, or 26%, with increases in the United States, Mexico and Singapore, partially offset by declines in Europe, India and China.

Product revenue in the United States increased $452,000, or 31%, due to both unit growth and new product launches into the dermatology market, and higher unit growth and royalty fees received from our partner Innovacyn, Inc. Effective July 1, 2011, the royalty rate we receive from Innovacyn increased from approximately 19% to approximately 30%. We recorded revenue in the amounts of $1,229,000 and $1,176,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively, from Innovacyn. Revenue growth attributed to our dermatology partners reflects strong unit growth as three new product lines were launched in the fourth quarter of the fiscal year ended March 31, 2012. Furthermore, we recognized deferred upfront fees of $154,000 related to the termination of our agreement with Union Springs Pharmaceuticals.

Revenue in Mexico for the three months ended September 30, 2012 increased $558,000, or 43%, when compared to the same period in the prior year. The increase was driven by a 14% increase in sales of our 120 ml, 240 ml and gel presentations and a 67% increase in sales of our 5 liter presentation and the recognition of $183,000 related to the amortization of upfront fees paid by More Pharma Corporation, S. de R.L. de C.V., our new exclusive distributor in Mexico. The effective date of our entry into the distribution agreement with More Pharma was August 15, 2012. Accordingly, as a result of this agreement, revenues recognized during approximately the first half of the quarter ended September 30, 2012 were accounted for as we had traditionally reported in the past with the sales sold to the end customer. However, during approximately the second half of the quarter ended September 30, 2012, we recognized revenue on the sell through basis for the products More Pharma purchased from us. The pricing of the units sold to More Pharma is based on fixed prices, which is about 55% on average of the current market price. Also, due to the transfer of the sales function of our products in Mexico to More Pharma, we reduced or transferred the cost of the sales people and promotions and thus, eliminated those certain operating costs. During the quarter ended September 30, 2012, we incurred about $410,000 of severance and related one-time costs in connection with the transfer of our sales function of our products in Mexico to More Pharma. In addition, an upfront fee of $5,100,000 will be recognized as revenue over a three to five year period, and such determination is based on the term of the agreements with More Pharma and an analysis of our experience with similar transactions.

Revenue in Europe and Rest of World for the three months ended September 30, 2012 decreased $136,000, or 21%, as compared to the same period in the prior year, primarily as the result of decreases in sales in Europe, India, Middle East and China, partially offset by increases in Singapore.

The following table shows our product revenues by geographic region:

Licensing revenues of $374,000 and $94,000, respectively, are also included in our calculation of product revenues for the quarters ended September 30, 2012 and 2011 and are reflected in the table above under the respective geographic region where such licensing revenues were earned.

Service revenues decreased $11,000 when compared to the same period in the prior year due to a decrease in the number of tests provided by our services business.

Gross Profit

We reported gross profit related to our Microcyn® products of $3,172,000 or 74% of product revenues, during the three months ended September 30, 2012, compared to a gross profit of $2,722,000, or 80% of product revenues, for the same period in the prior year. Our lower percentage of gross profitability is primarily the result of product mix in the United States and the impact of the execution of the More Pharma transaction in Mexico. Our margins in Mexico were 74% of product revenues during the three months ended September 30, 2012, compared to 81% for the same period in the prior year.

Research and Development Expense

Research and development expense decreased $47,000, or 8%, to $513,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2012, compared to $560,000 for the same period in the prior year due to decreased tests and studies conducted during the three months ended September 30, 2012.

We expect that our research and development expense will increase slightly over the next few quarters as we incur additional expenses related to laboratory tests, clinical trials and the development and approval of new products.

Selling, General and Administrative Expense

Selling, general and administrative expense increased $656,000, or 23%, to $3,504,000 during the three months ended September 30, 2012, as compared to $2,848,000 for the same period in the prior year. The increase for the three months ended September 30, 2012 was primarily due to $410,000 of one-time severance costs in Mexico and higher expenses related to new products, compensation, and investor-related costs in the United States.

We expect selling, general and administrative expenses to decline in the next period as we see the impact of lower sales-related expenses in Mexico.

Interest Expense and Interest Income

Interest expense increased $50,000 during the three months ended September 30, 2012 as compared to the same period of the prior year. The increase relates to an additional $14,000 of cash interest incurred and an additional $36,000 of non-cash interest incurred during the three months ended September 30, 2012. The cash and non-cash interest is related to borrowings from Venture Lending & Leasing V, Inc. and Venture Lending & Leasing VI, Inc.  Interest income for the three months ended September 30, 2012 showed no material change from the same period of the prior year.

Other Expense, Net

Other expense, net decreased $75,000 to $26,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2012, compared to other expense, net of $101,000 for the same period in the prior year. The change in other expense, net for the three months ended September 30, 2012 was primarily related to unrealized foreign exchange gains and losses on intercompany transactions and tax accruals.

Derivative Liabilities

During the three months ended September 30, 2012, we recorded a decrease in the fair value of our derivative liabilities of $397,000 and as a result, we recorded this amount as a non-cash loss. For the three months ended September 30, 2011, we recorded a non-cash gain of $121,000. The change in the fair value of our derivative liabilities for the three months ended September 30, 2012 was primarily the result of increases in our stock price.

Net (Loss)

Net loss for the three months ended September 30, 2012 was $1,519,000, an increase of $680,000, as compared to a net loss of $839,000 for the same period in the prior year.

Comparison of Six Months Ended September 30, 2012 and 2011

Revenues

Total revenues were $8,577,000 for the six months ended September 30, 2012 compared to $6,603,000 in the six months ended September 30, 2011. Product revenues increased $1,980,000, or 32%, with increases in the United States, Mexico and Singapore, offset by a decline in Europe, India and China.

Product revenue in the United States increased $1,645,000, or 72%, due to both unit growth and new product launches into the dermatology market, and higher unit growth and royalty fees received from our partner Innovacyn, Inc. Effective July 1, 2011, the royalty rate we receive from Innovacyn increased from approximately 19% to approximately 30%. We recorded revenue in the amounts of $2,365,000 and $1,739,000, respectively, for the six months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011, from Innovacyn. Revenue growth attributed to our dermatology partners reflects strong unit growth as three new product lines were launched in the fourth quarter of the fiscal year ended March 31, 2012. Furthermore, we recognized deferred upfront fees of $154,000 related to the termination of our agreement with Union Springs Pharmaceuticals.

Revenue in Mexico for the six months ended September 30, 2012, increased $556,000, or 21%, when compared to the same period in the prior year. The increase was driven by a 15% increase in sales of our 120 ml, 240 ml and gel presentations and a 67% increase in sales of our 5 liter presentation and the recognition of $183,000 related to the amortization of upfront fees paid by More Pharma Corporation, S. de R.L. de C.V., our new exclusive distributor in Mexico. The effective date of our entry into the distribution agreement with More Pharma was August 15, 2012.

Revenue in Europe and Rest of World for the six months ended September 30, 2012 decreased $221,000, or 20%, as compared to same period in the prior year, primarily as the result of decreases in sales in Europe, India, Middle East and China, partially offset by increases in Singapore.

The following table shows our product revenues by geographic region:

Licensing revenues of $406,000 and $189,000, respectively, are also included in our calculation of product revenues for the six months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011 and are reflected in the table above under the respective geographic region where such licensing revenues were earned.

Service revenues decreased $6,000 when compared to the same period in the prior year due to a decrease in the number of tests provided by our services business.

Gross Profit

We reported gross profit related to our Microcyn® products of $6,000,000 or 74% of product revenues, during the six months ended September 30, 2012, compared to a gross profit of $4,642,000, or 76% of product revenues, for the same period in the prior year. Our lower percentage of gross profitability is primarily the result of product mix in the United States and the impact of the execution of the More Pharma transaction in Mexico. Our margins in Mexico were 74% of product revenues during the six months ended September 30, 2012, compared to 81% for the same period in the prior year.

Research and Development Expense

Research and development expense increased $49,000, or 5%, to $1,045,000 for the six months ended September 30, 2012, compared to $996,000 for the same period in the prior year due to increased tests and studies conducted during the six months ended September 30, 2012.

We expect that our research and development expense will increase slightly over the next few quarters as we incur additional expenses related to laboratory tests, clinical trials and the development and approval of new products.

Selling, General and Administrative Expense

Selling, general and administrative expense decreased $28,000, or 1%, to $6,351,000 during the six months ended September 30, 2012 as compared to $6,379,000 for the same period in the prior year. The decrease for the six months ended September 30, 2012 was primarily due to a $394,000 decline in stock compensation charges, partially offset by $410,000 of one-time severance costs incurred in Mexico and higher expenses related to new products, compensation, and investor-related costs in the United States.

We expect selling, general and administrative expenses to decline in the next period as we see the impact of lower sales-related expenses in Mexico.

Interest Expense and Interest Income

Interest expense increased $176,000 during the six months ended September 30, 2012 as compared to the same period in the prior year. The increase relates to an additional $48,000 of cash interest incurred and an additional $128,000 of non-cash interest incurred during the six months ended September 30, 2012. The cash and non-cash interest is related to borrowings from Venture Lending & Leasing V, Inc. and Venture Lending & Leasing VI, Inc.  Interest income for the six months ended September 30, 2012 showed no material change from the same period in the prior year.

Other Expense, Net

Other expense, net decreased $148,000 to $46,000 for the six months ended September 30, 2012, compared to other expense, net of $194,000 for the same period in the prior year. The change in other expense, net for the six months ended September 30, 2012 was primarily related to unrealized foreign exchange gains and losses on intercompany transactions and tax accruals.

Derivative Liabilities

During the six months ended September 30, 2012, we recorded an increase in the fair value of our derivative liabilities of $850,000 and as a result, we recorded this amount as a non-cash gain. For the six months ended September 30, 2011, we recorded a non-cash gain of $218,000. The change in the fair value of our derivative liability for the six months ended September 30, 2012 was primarily the result of decreases in our stock price and the issuance of warrants in connection with our registered direct offering that closed on April 22, 2012.

Net (Loss)

Net loss for the six months ended September 30, 2012 was $1,074,000, a decrease of $1,940,000, as compared to a net loss of $3,014,000 for the same period in the prior year.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

We reported a net loss of $1,074,000 for the six months ended September 30, 2012. At September 30, 2012, our accumulated deficit amounted to $133,388,000. We had working capital of $4,996,000 as of September 30, 2012. In the future, we may raise additional capital from external sources in order to continue the longer term efforts contemplated under our business plan. We expect to continue incurring losses for the foreseeable future and may need to raise additional capital to pursue our product development initiatives, to penetrate markets for the sale of our products and continue as a going concern. We cannot provide any assurances that we will be able to raise additional capital. Our management believes that we have access to capital resources through possible public or private equity offerings, debt financings, corporate collaborations or other means, if needed; 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 needed.

Sources of Liquidity

As of September 30, 2012, we had cash and cash equivalents of $8,310,000. 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 October 1, 2010, substantially all of our operations have been financed through the following transactions:

On April 22, 2012, we entered into agreements with institutional and accredited investors to issue up to: a) 2,360,001 shares of common stock b) 1,000 shares of Series A 0% Convertible Preferred Stock (the “Series A Preferred Stock”); and c) warrants to purchase up to 3,471,112 shares of common stock (the “Warrants”). We also offered up to 1,111,111 shares of common stock issuable upon conversion of the Series A Preferred Stock and 3,471,112 shares of common stock in the event the Warrants are exercised. The Warrants have an initial exercise price of $1.18 per share, are not exercisable for six months from the date of issuance, and have an exercise term of 2.5 years from the date of issuance. We received approximately $3,124,000 in gross proceeds from the sale of these securities. Net proceeds after deducting the placement agent commissions, legal expenses and other offering expenses, and assuming no exercise of the Warrants, was $2,832,000. We retained Rodman & Renshaw, LLC as the exclusive placement agent for this offering, and paid them $218,680 in placement agent commissions. On May 4, 2012, the investor converted 1,000 shares of the Series A Preferred Stock purchased in the transaction into 1,111,111 shares of common stock.

Cash Flows

As of September 30, 2012, we had cash and cash equivalents of $8,310,000, compared to $3,351,000 at March 31, 2012.

Net cash provided by operating activities during the six months ended September 30, 2012 was $3,292,000 primarily due to the receipt of a $5,100,000 upfront payment from More Pharma offset by our net loss of $1,074,000 for the period. Additionally, we had non-cash transactions during the six months ended September 30, 2012, including $941,000 of stock-based compensation expenses, an $850,000 gain on the fair value adjustment of our derivative liabilities, and non-cash interest of $303,000.

Net cash used in operating activities during the six months ended September 30, 2011 was $1,468,000 primarily due to our net loss of $3,014,000 for the period which was offset in part by non-cash transactions during the six months ended September 30, 2011, including $1,327,000 of stock-based compensation expenses, and a $218,000 gain on the fair value adjustment of our derivative liability.

Net cash used in investing activities was $205,000 for the six months ended September 30, 2012, consisting of $62,000 related to equipment purchases and $152,000 related to long-term prepaid expenses associated with the More Pharma transaction.

Net cash used in investing activities was $174,000 for the six months ended September 30, 2011, consisting of $72,000 related to equipment purchases and $102,000 related to an increase in long-term deposits.

Net cash provided by financing activities was $1,874,000 for the six months ended September 30, 2012. During the period ended September 30, 2012, we received net proceeds from the April 2012 registered direct offering of common and preferred stock of $2,832,000. The offering proceeds were offset by principal payments on the debt in the amount of $974,000.

Net cash provided by financing activities was $949,000 for the six months ended September 30, 2011, primarily due to the issuance of $1,500,000 of debt which was offset by payments of $575,000 of outstanding debt during the period. We also received $24,000 in connection with the exercise of stock options.

Operating Capital and Capital Expenditure Requirements

We incurred a net loss of $1,074,000 for the six months ended September 30, 2012. At September 30, 2012, our accumulated deficit amounted to $133,388,000, and at March 31, 2012, our accumulated deficit amounted to $132,314,000. At September 30, 2012, our working capital amounted to $4,996,000.

We may raise additional capital from external sources in order to continue the longer term efforts contemplated under our business plan. We expect to continue incurring losses for the foreseeable future and may need to raise additional capital to pursue our product development initiatives and to penetrate markets for the sale of our products.

We have undertaken initiatives to reduce costs in an effort to conserve capital. Future pivotal trials will require the selection of a partner and must also be completed in order for us to potentially 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:

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 Transactions

We currently have no off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future material effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources.

As a smaller reporting company, we are electing scaled disclosure reporting obligations and therefore are not required to provide the information required by this Item.

(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 the 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 our 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, our 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 September 30, 2012 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II — OTHER INFORMATION

On July 25, 2011, we received notice of a lawsuit filed in Mexico by Cesar Mangotich Pacheco and Prodinnv, S.A. de C.V. represented by Cesar Mangotich Pacheco. The lawsuit appears to allege conversion of assets, tortious interference and defamation, among other claims. We are currently evaluating the lawsuit, conferring with local counsel and translating the documents we have received. Our preliminary assessment is that the lawsuit is completely without merit and intend to vigorously defend our position. We have not accrued a loss reserve for this matter.

Our Company, on occasion, may be involved in legal matters arising in the ordinary course of our business including matters involving proprietary technology. While management believes that such matters are currently insignificant, matters arising in the ordinary course of business for which we are or could become involved in litigation may have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition or results of operations.

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, 2012, as filed with the SEC on June 21, 2012, except as follows, which was also disclosed in our quarterly report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended June 30, 2012:

If any of our third-party contractors fail to perform their responsibilities to comply with FDA rules and regulations, the manufacture, marketing and sales of our products could be delayed, which could decrease our revenues.

Supplying the market with our Microcyn® Technology products requires us to manage relationships with an increasing number of collaborative partners, suppliers and third-party contractors. As a result, our success depends partially on the success of these third parties in performing their responsibilities to comply with FDA rules and regulations. Although we pre-qualify our contractors and we believe that they are fully capable of performing their contractual obligations, we cannot directly control the adequacy and timeliness of the resources and expertise that they apply to these activities. For example, we and our suppliers are required to comply with the FDA’s quality system regulations, which cover the methods and documentation of the design, testing, production, control, quality assurance, labeling, packaging, storage and shipping of our products. The FDA enforces the quality system regulation through inspections.

On July 25, 2012, we were notified that one of our strategic partners received a warning letter from the FDA regarding their manufacturing and marketing of certain Microcyn® Technology-based products. While we are still assessing the letter, we currently believe we do not have an obligation to respond to the FDA, although we may choose to assist our partner in their response. It is possible such letter will have a material impact on our business. However, we cannot predict when or how our partner will respond to the FDA or if our partner will adequately address all of the FDA’s concerns. If our partner does not meet all of the FDA’s concerns, our partner may cease selling some or all of our products. It is also possible that the FDA may require our partner to take other actions regarding our products including a recall. If our partner ceases to sell our products on a temporary or permanent basis, our revenues will be adversely affected.

If any of our partners or contractors fail to perform their obligations in an adequate and timely manner, or fail to comply with the FDA’s rules and regulations, including failure to comply with quality systems regulations or a corrective action submitted to the FDA after notification by the FDA of a deficiency is deemed insufficient, then the manufacture, marketing and sales of our products could be delayed. Our products could be detained or seized, the FDA could order a recall, or require our partner to replace or offer refunds for our products. The FDA could also require our partner, and depending on our agreement with our partner, us to notify health professionals and others that the products present unreasonable risks of substantial harm to the public health. If any of these events occur, the manufacture, marketing and sales of our products could be delayed which could decrease our revenues. 

If we fail to comply with the FDA’s rules and regulations and are subject to a FDA recall as part of an FDA enforcement action, the associated costs could like have a material adverse effect on our business, financial position, results of operations and cash flows.

Our Company, our products, the manufacturing facilities for our products, the distribution of our products, and our promotion and marketing materials are subject to strict and continual review and periodic inspection by the FDA and other regulatory agencies for compliance with pre-approval and post-approval regulatory requirements.

If we fail to comply with the FDA’s rules and regulations, we could be subject to an enforcement action by the FDA. The FDA could undertake regulatory actions, including seeking a consent decree, recalling or seizing our products, ordering a total or partial shutdown of production, delaying future marketing clearances or approvals, and withdrawing or suspending certain of our current products from the market. A product recall, restriction, or withdrawal could result in substantial and unexpected expenditures, destruction of product inventory, and lost revenues due to the unavailability of one or more of our products for a period of time, which could reduce profitability and cash flow. In addition, a product recall or withdrawal could divert significant management attention and financial resources. If any of our products are subject to an FDA recall, we could incur significant costs and suffer economic losses. Production of our products could be suspended and we could be required to establish inventory reserves to cover estimated inventory losses for all work-in-process and finished goods related to products we or our third-party contractors manufacture. A recall of a material amount of our products could have a significant, unfavorable impact on our future gross margins.

If our products fail to comply with FDA and other governmental regulations, or our products are deemed defective, we may be required to recall our products and we could suffer adverse public relations that could adversely impact our sales, operating results, and reputation which would adversely affect our business operations.

We may be exposed to product recalls, including voluntary recalls or withdrawals, and adverse public relations if our products are alleged to cause injury or illness, or if we are alleged to have mislabeled or misbranded our products or otherwise violated governmental regulations. Governmental authorities can also require product recalls or impose restrictions for product design, manufacturing, labeling, clearance, or other issues. For the same reasons, we may also voluntarily elect to recall, restrict the use of a product or withdraw products that we consider below our standards, whether for quality, packaging, appearance or otherwise, in order to protect our brand reputation.

Product recalls, product liability claims (even if unmerited or unsuccessful), or any other events that cause consumers to no longer associate our brand with high quality and safe products may also result in adverse publicity, hurt the value of our brand, harm our reputation among our customers and other healthcare professionals who use or recommend the products, lead to a decline in consumer confidence in and demand for our products, and lead to increased scrutiny by federal and state regulatory agencies of our operations, any of which could have a material adverse effect on our brand, business, performance, prospects, value, results of operations and financial condition.

During the three months ended September 30, 2012, we issued 26,096 shares of common stock to Advocos, LLC as compensation for services provided, and we also issued 150,000 shares of common stock to NetGain Financial, Inc. as compensation for services provided.

With respect to the issuance of securities described above, we relied on the Section 4(2) exemption from securities registration under the federal securities laws for transactions not involving any public offering. No advertising or general solicitation was employed in offering the securities. The securities were issued to an accredited investor. The securities were offered for investment purposes only and not for the purpose of resale or distribution, and the transfer thereof was appropriately restricted by us.

We did not default upon any senior securities during the quarter ended September 30, 2012.

Agreement to Extend the Expiration Date of Warrants in Exchange for the Removal of Certain Settlement Features in Those Warrants

(collectively, “Sabby”) to amend the terms of the warrants issued to Sabby in conjunction with our April 22, 2012 registered direct offering.
