NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

 

January 31, 2004

 

BASIS OF PRESENTATION

 

The accompanying unaudited condensed financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. The preparation of the Company’s financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles necessarily requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the balance sheet dates and the reported amounts of revenues and expense during the reporting periods. Actual results could differ from these estimates and assumptions. Operating results for the three and nine month periods ended January 31, 2004 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending April 30, 2004. For further information, refer to the financial statements and footnotes thereto for the year ended April 30, 2003 on Form 10-K.

 

REVENUE RECOGNITION

 

Revenue is recognized for product sales upon shipment to the customer and when estimates of discounts, rebates, promotional adjustments, price adjustments, returns, chargebacks, and other potential adjustments are reasonably determinable, collection is reasonably assured and the Company has no further performance obligations. These estimates are presented in the financial statements as reductions to net revenues and accounts receivable.

 

Net sales for generic pharmaceutical products, which include some private label contract manufacturing, for the three months ended January 31, 2004 and January 31, 2003 were $15.4 million and $13.4 million, respectively. The Company’s Health Care Products division, which markets the Company’s branded products, for the three months ended January 31, 2004 and January 31, 2003 had net sales of $2.6 million and $2.5 million, respectively.

 

CUSTOMER DEPOSITS AND CONTRACT RESEARCH INCOME

 

Contract research income is recognized as work is completed and as billable costs are incurred. In certain cases, contract research income is based on attainment of designated milestones. Advance payments may be received to fund certain development costs.

 

NET EARNINGS PER SHARE

 

Net income per common share is computed based on the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for basic earnings per share and on the weighted average number of common shares and share equivalents (stock options) outstanding for diluted earnings per share.

 

WORKING CAPITAL REVOLVING LOAN

 

The Company has a three year $8,000,000 revolving credit facility dated January 23, 2002. The revolving credit facility bears interest at a rate selected by the Company equal to the Prime Rate or LIBOR plus 1.50%. Loans are collateralized by inventory, accounts receivable and other assets. The agreement contains covenants with respect to working capital, net worth and certain ratios, as well as other covenants and prohibits the payment of cash dividends. For the nine months ended January 31, 2004 there were no borrowings under the credit facility.

Stock-based compensation:

 

Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 123, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation”, encourages the use of the fair value based method of accounting for stock-based employee compensation. Alternatively, SFAS No. 123 allows entities to continue to apply the intrinsic value method prescribed by Accounting Principles Board (“APB”) Opinion 25, “Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees”, and related interpretations and provide pro forma disclosures of net income and earnings per share, as if the fair value based method of accounting had been applied to employee awards. The Company has elected to continue to follow the intrinsic value method in accounting for its stock-based employee compensation arrangements as defined by APB Opinion 25 and provide the disclosures required by SFAS No. 123 and SFAS No. 148, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation – Transition and Disclosure”, which was released in December 2002 as an amendment of SFAS No. 123. The following table illustrates the effect on net income and earnings per share if the Company had applied the fair value recognition provisions to stock-based employee compensation.
