consolidated financial statements, notes, and other references to share and per
share data contained in this Report have been retroactively restated to reflect
such reverse stock split for all periods presented.

MICROHELIX, INC.
NOTES
TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)
Three
and Nine Months Ended September 30, 2009 and 2008
1. Summary
of Significant Accounting Policies and Basis of Presentation
Nature of Operations— Until
September 28, 2007, when microHelix, Inc. (“we,” “us,” “ the Company,” or
“microHelix”) suspended manufacturing operations and concluded the disposition
of its assets to its secured creditors, the Company was a manufacturer of custom
cable assemblies and mechanical assemblies for the medical and commercial
original equipment manufacturer (OEM) markets. On May 31, 2007,
the Company surrendered substantially all its assets to its secured creditors
and concluded the disposition of all the Company's assets on September 28,
2007, after which microHelix became a shell company (see "Going Concern") that
will seek out suitable business combinations. Management believes
that presentation of discontinued operations would not be appropriate since
substantially all of the Company’s operations have been
discontinued.
On June
27, 2008, the Company entered into an Advisory Services Agreement with Aequitas
Capital Management, Inc. (“Aequitas”) under which Aequitas began to provide
strategy development, strategic planning, marketing, corporate development and
other services that the Company reasonably requests from time to time, under
direction of the Company’s Board of Directors for a monthly fee of $10,000 and
reimbursement of expenses. In connection with the Advisory Services
Agreement, the Company issued a warrant for 1,066,667 shares of common stock
with an exercise price of $0.001 per share to Aequitas in 2008 (see Note
3). Under a separate agreement, the Company has an obligation to pay
Aequitas $5,000 per month for certain services related to occupancy of Aequitas
facilities and information technology support. In addition to
advising and servicing the Company, Aequitas is also manager of MH Financial
Associates, LLC (“MH Financial”) and Aequitas Catalyst Fund, LLC, which are two
of the Company’s largest shareholders.
Basis of Presentation — The
unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared by the Company,
pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission
("SEC"). The information furnished herein reflects all adjustments
(consisting of normal recurring accruals and adjustments), which are, in the
opinion of management, necessary to fairly represent the operating results for
the respective periods.
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 disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at
the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of
revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results
could differ from those estimates.
Principles of Consolidation —
These consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and
its wholly-owned subsidiary, Moore Electronics, Inc. ("Moore”). All
material inter-company accounts have been eliminated in
consolidation.
Going Concern — These consolidated financial
statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the
realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course
of business. The Company has incurred recurring losses from
operations, had an accumulated deficit of $30,564,614 at September 30, 2009, and
has no current business operations. These conditions raise
substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern for
a reasonable period of time. These consolidated financial statements
do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification
of recorded asset amounts or the amounts and classification of liabilities that
may be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going
concern.
Financial Instruments — The fair value of the
Company’s liabilities approximates cost due to the short-term nature of the
obligations.
Subsequent Events
— Subsequent events have
been considered through November 16, 2009, the date these financial statements
were issued.

Net Income/(Loss) per Share —
The Company uses Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 260,
"Earnings per Share" for calculating the basic and diluted income/(loss) per
share. Basic income/(loss) per share is computed by dividing net
income/(loss) attributable to common stockholders by the weighted average number
of common shares outstanding. Since there was a loss for the three
and nine months ended September 30, 2009 and 2008, the issuance of shares from
the conversion of preferred stock or warrants would be
anti-dilutive. The Company computes dilutive shares using the
treasury method.
For the
three and nine months ended September 30, 2009, the outstanding number of
potentially dilutive common shares totaled 10,910,178 shares of Common Stock,
consisting of Series C Preferred Stock convertible to 186,047 shares of Common
Stock and warrants to purchase 10,724,131 shares of Common Stock. For
the three and nine months ended September 30, 2008, the outstanding number of
potentially dilutive common shares totaled 8,776,843 shares of Common Stock,
consisting of Series C Preferred Stock convertible to 186,047 shares of Common
Stock and warrants to purchase 8,590,796 shares of Common Stock.
On
January 2, 2008, MH Financial exercised warrants to purchase 133,333 shares of
Common Stock for $2,000.
On
February 17, 2008, a related party to MH Financial exercised warrants to
purchase 73,915 shares of Common Stock for $1,109.
On March
3, 2008, MH Financial exercised warrants to purchase 798,981 shares of Common
Stock for $11,985.
On March
19, 2008 at a special meeting of the shareholders, the Company’s Articles of
Incorporation were amended to effect a 15-for-1 reverse split of the Company’s
Common Stock. The accompanying condensed consolidated financial
statements, notes, and other references to share and per share data have been
retroactively restated to reflect the reverse stock split for all periods
presented.
On
February 9, 2009, the Company issued 667 shares of Common Stock with a value of
$1,001 to a former member of the Company’s Board of Directors.

Summary of Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In
December 2007, the FASB issued guidance on accounting for business combinations
and related disclosures. This guidance is now part of ASC
Topic 805, “Business
Combinations” which establishes principles and requirements for how an
acquirer recognizes and measures in its financial statements the identifiable
assets acquired, the liabilities assumed, any non-controlling interest in the
acquiree and the goodwill acquired. The Statement also establishes
disclosure requirements which will enable users to evaluate the nature and
financial effects of the business combination. ASC Topic 805 is
effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2008. The
adoption of ASC Topic 805 will have an impact on accounting for business
combinations but the effect is dependent upon the acquisitions at that
time.
In
December 2007, the FASB issued guidance which is now part of the ASC Topic
810-10-65-1, (“Noncontrolling Interests in Consolidated Financial
Statements”), an amendment to ARB No. 51, which establishes
accounting and reporting standards for ownership interests in subsidiaries held
by parties other than the parent, the amount of consolidated net income
attributable to the parent and to the non-controlling interest, changes in a
parent’s ownership interest and the valuation of retained non-controlling equity
investments when a subsidiary is deconsolidated. The Statement also
establishes reporting requirements that provide sufficient disclosures that
clearly identify and distinguish between the interest of the parent and the
interests of the non-controlling owners. ASC Topic 810 is effective
for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2008. The adoption of
ASC Topic 810 did not have an effect on the Company’s consolidated financial
statements.
In April
2009, the FASB issued new guidance, which is now part of the ASC,
which was effective for interim and annual periods ending after
September 15, 2009.
After
considering the current non-operating nature of the company and the nature of
its assets and liabilities, the Company expects no material impact on the
adoption of these standards on its financial position and results of
operations.

On June 27, 2008, the
Company obtained a loan from MH Financial in the amount of
$977,743. The loan amount includes $477,743 that was owed to MH
Financial as of June 27, 2008 and an additional loan of up to
$500,000. The Company was advanced $200,000 on June 27, 2008,
$100,000 on December 31, 2008, $100,000 on February 25, 2009, and on
November 6, 2009 received an additional advance of $100,000 against the $500,000
loan amount. As a result of the November 6, 2009 advance, microHelix
has borrowed the full $977,743 principal amount available under the
loan. All amounts outstanding under the loan are due on the earliest
of: (a) December 27, 2009, (b) the closing of a loan or other
financing by microHelix in an amount sufficient to pay off the loan, or
(c) the closing of a private investment in public equity and/or any other
financing event with gross proceeds to microHelix in excess of
$1,000,000. The loan is secured by a lien against substantially all
of the assets of microHelix and its wholly-owned subsidiary, Moore Electronics,
Inc., including all of the outstanding common stock of Moore Electronics,
Inc. In the event of default by microHelix, MH Financial may
accelerate the entire amount owed under the loan.
Effective
as of the date of this loan, interest will accrue on the outstanding principal
balance of the loan at a rate of 20% per annum. The original due date
of the loan was December 27, 2008 and, as a condition of the December 31, 2008
advance, the due date was extended to December 27, 2009. As a
condition of the initial disbursement on June 27, 2008, the Company also issued
warrants to purchase 7,466,666 shares of Common Stock at $0.001 per
share. The warrants expire June 27, 2013. The warrants have a fair
value relative to the fair value of the associated debt of $659,981 calculated

On
December 31, 2008 the Company issued a new note payable to Aequitas Capital
Management in the amount of $101,834. The loan has a due date of
December 31, 2009 and interest will accrue on the outstanding principal balance
of the loan at a rate of 20% per annum. The loan amount included
$90,000 owed to Aequitas Capital Management for rent and advisory services and
$11,834 for travel and legal services paid for by Aequitas Capital Management on
behalf of the Company. The $90,000 had been accrued (in accrued
liabilities) for during 2008 and the $11,834 was recorded as general and
administrative expenses during the three month period ending March 31,
2009. During the nine months ended September 30, 2009 Aequitas
Capital Management paid an additional $135,000 for rent and advisory services
and $8,155 for travel and legal services on behalf of the Company.
On
February 25, 2009 the Company received a $100,000 advance against the loan the

Liability for Potentially Dilutive Securities in Excess of Authorized Number of
Common Shares
In
accordance with ASC, the Company accounts for potential shares that can be
converted to Common Stock that are in excess of authorized shares, as a
liability that is recorded at fair value. Total potential outstanding
Common Stock exceeded the Company’s authorized shares on March 12, 2007 when the
Company restructured its debt with MH Financial. In this process the
Company issued 860,000 warrants. At that time outstanding warrants
allowed the holders the right to purchase approximately 579,867 shares over the
current authorized amount. The fair value of the warrants in excess of the
authorized shares at March 12, 2007 was $1,818,200 and was recognized as a
liability on March 12, 2007. This liability was required to be
evaluated at each reporting date with any change in value included in other
income/ (expense) until such time as enough shares were authorized to cover all
potentially convertible instruments. As of December 31, 2007 the
Company had recorded $1,755,378 in income related to the change in the fair
value of its potential liability. In January 2008 the Company’s
shareholders voted to amend the Company’s Amended and Restated Articles of
Incorporation, as amended, to increase the number of authorized shares of
Preferred Stock to 10 million and Common Stock to 75 million. As a
result of this action the potentially dilutive securities no longer exceeded the
authorized number of common shares. As such the Company reversed the
remaining $62,822 liability to income during the three month period ending March
31, 2008.

2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION
AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
The
following discussion provides information that management believes is relevant
to an assessment and understanding of the Company's operations and financial
condition. This discussion should be read in conjunction with the
unaudited consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes.
Forward-Looking
Statements
This
Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q contains forward-looking statements within the
meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, as amended.
Such statements reflect management's current view and estimates of future
economic and market circumstances, industry conditions, company performance and
financial results. Words such as "expects," "anticipates," "intends," "plans,"
"believes," "seeks," "estimates" and variations of such words and similar
expressions are intended to identify such forward-looking
statements. These statements are subject to risks and uncertainties
that could cause our future results to differ materially from the results
discussed herein. Factors that might cause such a difference include,
but are not limited to, those discussed elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on
Form 10-Q. We do not intend, and undertake no obligation, to update
any such forward-looking statements to reflect events or circumstances that
occur after the date of this filing.
Critical
Accounting Policies and Estimates
The
discussion and analysis of the Company’s financial condition and results of
operations is based upon the Company’s consolidated financial statements, which
have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted
in the United States. The preparation of these financial statements
requires the Company to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported
amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and related disclosure of
contingent assets and liabilities. The Company based the estimates on
historical experience and on various other assumptions that are believed to be
reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which formed the basis for
making judgments about the carrying value of assets and liabilities that are not
readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from
those estimated.
RESULTS
OF OPERATIONS
Overview
Until
September 2007, microHelix manufactured custom cable assemblies for the medical
and commercial Original Equipment Manufacturer ("OEM")
markets. Typical cable assemblies included cable, connectors,
contacts, flex reliefs and housings; sub-components of medical devices and
commercial electronic systems. The Company operated the business in a
single operating segment through two units: the Moore subsidiary and the
MicroCoax Assembly Solutions division.
On May
31, 2007 the Company surrendered its assets to its secured creditors and
concluded the disposition of all the Company’s assets on September 28, 2007
after which it became a shell company.
The
Company’s current business objective is to locate appropriate opportunities for
a business combination. The Company does not currently engage in any
activity that provides cash flow. The Company anticipates incurring
costs related to the filing of Exchange Act reports, officers’ and directors’
salaries and transaction costs related to a business
combination. There is no assurance that the Company will be able to
raise sufficient capital to cover those expenses. Until the Company
consummates a business combination, it does not anticipate any future
expenditures for research and development or the purchase or sale of any
property, plant, or equipment.
Certain
types of business combinations may be completed without having to first submit
the transaction to our shareholders for approval. If a business
combination transaction is structured such that the approval by the Company’s
shareholders is not required, our shareholders will not be provided with
financial or other information relating to the other party to the business
combination prior to the completion of the transaction.
Because
of the disposition of substantially all of the Company’s assets and the
subsequent winding up of the business, the Company has no ongoing
operations. The Company’s Board of Directors has determined to
maintain the Company as a public “shell” corporation, which will seek suitable
business combination opportunities. The Company’s Board of Directors
believes that a business combination with an operating company has the potential
to create value for the Company’s shareholders.
The
Company completed its initial public offering in November 2001. As of
the date of this report the Company’s Common Stock trades on the Pink Sheets
under the symbol MHLN.PK. On June 11, 2007 the Company filed a Form
15 with the Securities and Exchange Commission terminating its
registration under Section 12(g) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and the
suspension of its duty to file reports under Sections 13 and 15(d) of the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934. On March 16, 2009, the Company
voluntarily recommenced filing reports due under the Securities Exchange Act of
1934.

The
following discussion should be read in the context of the above
overview.
THREE
AND NINE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2009 AND 2008
Total
operating expenses in the third quarter of 2009 were $64,224, compared to
$94,306 for the same period one year ago. For the nine month period
ending September 30, 2009 the total operating expenses were $304,252 compared to
$3,917,132 for the first nine months of 2008. The decrease is due to
the $3,598,971 of professional services expense in the second quarter of 2008
related to the warrants issued in conjunction with the advisory services
agreement and was partially offset by the professional service expenses related
to the preparation of Forms 10-Q and 10-K for 2008 and 2009.
Net other
income (expense) for the third quarter of 2009 was ($113,156) compared to net
other income (expense) of ($332,358) for the third quarter of
2008. For the nine month period ending September 30, 2009, the net
other income (expense) was ($309,139) as compared to $25,680 for the first nine
months of 2008. The difference was primarily related to the income
associated with the change in the warrant valuation in the first quarter of 2008
and debt forgiveness recorded in 2008.
The
Company recorded a net loss of ($177,380) in the third quarter of 2009 compared
to a net loss of ($426,684) in the third quarter of 2008. On a year
to date basis for the nine months ended September 30, 2009, the Company recorded
a net loss of ($613,391) compared to a net loss of ($3,891,452) recorded during
the first nine months of 2008. The decrease is due to the $3,598,971
of professional services expense in the second quarter of 2008 related to the
warrants issued in conjunction with the advisory services agreement and was
partially offset by the professional service expenses related to the preparation
of Forms 10-Q and 10-K for 2008 and 2009.
LIQUIDITY
AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
As of September 30, 2009, the
Company had $971 of cash. Cash used in operating activities during
the nine-month period ended September 30, 2009 was $197,462 compared to cash
used in operating activities of $289,205 in the same period a year ago. The use
of funds during the first nine months of 2009 included a net loss of $613,391,
and a net decrease in prepaid expenses of $4,166, offset by an increase in
accrued liabilities of $282,629 and amortization of debt discount of
$136,465.
For the
nine months ending September 30, 2009, financing activities provided the Company
with $100,000 of cash as compared to $284,543 of cash provided by financing
activities during the first nine months of 2008. The primary source
of the cash from financing activities for the three and nine month period ending
September 30, 2009 and 2008 was advances on notes payable from the Company’s
secured creditor.
The
following description of the Company's principal debt at September 30, 2009
should be read in the context of the overview above and Note 3 of Notes to
Consolidated Financial Statements.
On June
27, 2008, the Company obtained a loan (the “MH Financial Loan”) from MH
Financial, Inc. (“MH Financial”) in the amount of $977,743. The MH
Financial Loan is secured by a lien against substantially all of the assets of
microHelix and Moore, including all of the outstanding common stock of
Moore. MH Financial may accelerate all amounts due under the MH
Financial Loan in the event of default. In addition, all amounts
outstanding under the MH Financial Loan are due and payable upon the earliest of: (a) December 27, 2009, (b)

investment in public equity and/or any other financing event with gross proceeds
to the Company in excess of $1,000,000. The MH Financial Loan replaces the prior
notes payable to MH Financial, and includes $477,743 that was owed to MH

Incorporation were amended to effect a 15-for-1 reverse split of the Company’s

retroactively restated to reflect the reverse stock split for all periods
presented.

“accredited investors” as that term is defined in
Regulation D.

ITEM
4T. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
The
Company’s President and Chief Financial Officer evaluated the effectiveness of
our disclosure controls and procedures pursuant to Rule 13a-15 under the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934 as of September 30, 2009. Based on
that evaluation, our President and Chief Financial Officer concluded that the
Company’s disclosure controls and procedures are not designed at a reasonable
assurance level nor are they effective to give reasonable assurance that the
information the Company must disclose in reports filed with the Securities and
Exchange Commission are properly recorded, processed, summarized, and reported
as required, and that such information is not accumulated and communicated to
our management, including the Company’s President and Chief Financial Officer,
to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
The
Company’s disclosure controls and procedures are subject to material weaknesses
resulting from the Company’s loss of key personnel and the Company’s surrender
of all of its assets to its creditors. Because of the limited number
of personnel available for accounting duties, there is an inadequate segregation
of duties related to accounting controls. The accounting department
consists only of limited contracted resources. Due to the Company’s
current lack of financial resources it has not been reasonable or cost
beneficial for the Company to hire extra accounting personnel who would have no
other purpose, duties, or workload than to provide formal segregation of duties
under internal control principles.
There
have been no changes in the Company’s internal controls over financial reporting
that occurred during the Company’s most recent fiscal quarter that have
materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the
Company’s internal control over financial reporting.
