NOTES TO CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

 

January 31, 2005

 

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, 2005 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending April 30, 2005. For further information, refer to the financial statements and footnotes thereto for the year ended April 30, 2004 on Form 10-K.

 

REVENUE RECOGNITION

 

Revenue is recognized for product sales upon shipment and passing of risk 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. Estimated sales returns, allowances and discounts are provided for. Contract research income is recognized as work is completed and billable costs are incurred. In certain cases, contract research income is based on attainment of designated milestones.

 

Net sales for generic pharmaceutical products, which include private label contract manufacturing, for the nine months ended January 31, 2005 and January 31, 2004 were $43,397,000 and $37,821,000, respectively. The Company’s Health Care Products division, which markets the Company’s branded products, for the nine months ended January 31, 2005 and January 31, 2004 had net sales of $6,647,000 and $5,131,000, respectively.

 

NAPRELAN® LICENSE AGREEMENT

 

In June, 2004 Hi-Tech Pharmacal Co., Inc. acquired exclusive rights to market and distribute Naprelan® (naproxen sodium) controlled-release tablets in the United States, its territories and Puerto Rico. Elan Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (“Elan”) had provided the underlying rights to Stat-Trade, Inc. (“STI”), a company providing biomedical product development support and regulatory services to biotechnology and pharmaceutical companies, and STI simultaneously assigned its rights to the license to the Company. The Agreement covers all FDA approved strengths of Naprelan®. Under the terms of a supply agreement, Elan will manufacture Naprelan® for Hi-Tech.

 

As consideration for the acquisition, the Company paid $3 million in cash and an additional approximately $400,000 for the existing product inventory, plus expenses related to the acquisition of approximately $231,000. The license and acquisitions costs are being amortized over the remaining life of the patent, a ten year period. For future consulting services, Hi-Tech will be paying STI an on-going fee based on net profits on the sales generated by Naprelan®. Net sales of Naprelan® for the nine month period ended January 31, 2005 were approximately $1,843,000.

 

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. For the three and nine months ended January 31, 2005, approximately 273,000 option shares have been excluded from the diluted earnings per share calculation as their effect is anti-dilutive.

 

WORKING CAPITAL REVOLVING LOAN

 

The Company has a three year $8,000,000 revolving credit facility dated October 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, 2005 there were no borrowings under the credit facility.
