Item 1. BUSINESS.

History of Seychelle

We are a Nevada corporation. Our principal business address is 32963 Calle Perfecto, San Juan Capistrano, California 92675. Our telephone number at this address is 949-234-1999.

We were incorporated under the laws of the State of Nevada on January 23, 1998 as a change of domicile to Royal Net, Inc., a Utah corporation that was originally incorporated on January 24, 1986. Royal Net, Inc. changed its state of domicile to Nevada and its name to Seychelle Environmental Technologies, Inc. effective in January 1998.

On January 30, 1998, we entered into an Exchange Agreement with Seychelle Water Technologies, Inc., a Nevada corporation (SWT), whereby we exchanged our issued and outstanding capital shares with the shareholders of SWT on a one share for one share basis. We became the parent company and SWT became a wholly owned subsidiary. SWT had been formed in 1997 to market water filtration systems of Aqua Vision International.

Organization

Our Company is presently comprised of Seychelle Environmental Technologies, Inc., a Nevada corporation, with one wholly-owned subsidiary, Seychelle Water Technologies, Inc., also a Nevada corporation (collectively, the Company or Seychelle). We use the trade name "Seychelle Water Filtration Products, Inc." in our commercial operations.
 
Business of Seychelle
 
General

Seychelle designs, assembles and distributes unique, state-of-the-art ionic adsorption micron filters specifically for portable filter devices that remove up to 99.99% of all pollutants and contaminants found in any fresh water source. Patents or trade secrets cover all proprietary products. Since human bodies are approximately 75% water, our mission is twofold: First, to help educate everyone to the fact that the quality of water they drink is important and second, to make available low-cost, effective filtration products that will meet the need for safe, great tasting, and high quality drinking water.

As of February 28, 2010, Seychelle has sold over 3 million portable water filtration bottles throughout the world to customers such as individuals, dealers, distributors governments, militaries, non-governmental organizations and emergency relief organizations such as the International Red Cross, Eco-Challenge, Kenya Wild Life Service, La Cruz Roja de Mexico and the N.Y. Institute for the Blind. In addition, the Company has donated thousands of portable bottles to church groups and missionaries worldwide.

In 2001, the World Bank placed the value of the world water market at close to $400 billion annually. Bottled water, according to Water Facts, has emerged as the second largest commercial beverage category by volume in the U.S. However, Seychelle products compete in a more limited market: the portable filtration product segment

In developing countries, many people in rural areas boil their water for drinking and cooking to kill bacteria, but this process does not remove the pyrogens, chemicals, toxins, volatile organic compounds, heavy metals or other pathogens that remain in the water. In Africa alone, according to Earth Prayers From Around the World, approximately 6,000 people die every day because of water borne diseases.

Business Plan
 
The management of Seychelle represents over 100 years of combined experience in developing improvements and innovations in the field of bottled water, reverse osmosis, ultra filtration and filter technology. As a result, our products can deliver up to 2-micron filtration at pennies per gallon, with pressure as low as 2 pounds per square inch (PSI). Further, our point of difference filtration systems remove up to 99.99% of all known pollutants and contaminants most commonly found in fresh drinking water supplies in the four major areas of concern as follows:

AESTHETICS: Taste, chlorine, sand, sediment and odor problems.
BIOLOGICS: Pathogens such as Cryptosporidium, Giardia and E. Coli Bacteria.
CHEMICALS: Pesticides, detergents, toxic chemicals and industrial waste.
DISSOLVED SOLIDS: Heavy metals such as aluminum, asbestos, copper, lead, mercury and chromium 6.

Seychelle filters have been tested by independent and government laboratories throughout the world and are approved for sale and distribution in the following countries: United States, Mexico, United Kingdom, Korea, Malaysia, Japan, The Peoples Republic of China, Vietnam, New Zealand, Australia, Brazil, Venezuela, Argentina, South Africa, and Pakistan. In the United States, Seychelle filters have been certified by California and Florida in approved independent laboratories implementing the Environmental Protection Agency, American National Standards Institute, and National Sanitation Foundation protocol, procedures, standards and methodology. Additionally, we offer a test pack for potential customers that include the test results from selected countries. In addition, results from the United States, United Kingdom and South Africa are displayed on our Website: www.seychelle.com. To our knowledge, no other water filtration system can achieve removal of up to 99.99% of pollutants and contaminants most commonly found in fresh drinking water supplies in the four major areas of concern defined above. The benefit of such filtration can save lives worldwide as more people become aware of the benefits of using products utilizing Seychelle’s proprietary portable water filtration technology.
 
Principal Products or Services and their Markets

Current Products

Seychelle has a varied line of portable filter bottles for people on the go. The current products include: Flip-Top and Pull Top bottles, Canteens, Water Pitchers, Pure Water Pump, Bottoms-Up bottles, Stainless Steel bottles, In-Line Filter, Pure Water Bag, Pump N’ Pure and the  Pure Water Straw.They include –either standard or advanced filters (for virus and bacteria control). Sizes are from 18 ounce to 38 ounces, and provide up to 100 gallons of pure drinking water from any fresh water source; running or stagnant (such as rivers, lakes, ponds and streams.).

New Products

We have re-engineered the Flip Top bottle to eliminate parts, reduce costs, provide a more streamlined look, and add a disinfectant capability. Additionally, the In-Line Filter has been changed to provide greater filter media, and meet field conditions that require a longer, narrower design.  In addition, the company has added a fast flow fliter to the product line that is desgned to compete directly to bottled water customers who have either price or environmental concerns about bottled water.

 Manufacturing

The Company has determined that the production and assembly of some of our product components can be acheived in China at a lower cost than in the U.S. while maintaining equivalent quality standards; however, our proprietary filter will continue to be manufactured in the U.S. The assembly of our products is completed at our facility in San Juan Capistrano, California.

On September 1, 2005, we signed an exclusive agreement with Huanghua Plastic Co., Ltd, a non-related third party, to manufacture component parts.  There is not a purchasing commitment required by this agreement.

Sales Channels

Sales channels to be pursued will include: retail, military, government, non-governmental agencies (NGO)’s, foundations, missionaries, multi-level marketing, international, OEM and joint venures. At present, we are talking to several multi-level marketing companies with over one million distributors worldwide who currently do not have a water product in their line.

Several distributors sell the Company’s portable water filtration products to customers in specific distribution channels; including: retail, multi-national corporations, foundations, sports, governmental agencies, and the military (both domestically and internationally).

Raw Materials

Seychelle’s filters include powdered water-activated coconut and other media as components in the porous plastic ionic filter. To date, there is an adequate availability of material for all of our products. We do not expect this situation to change in the near future.
 
Customers and Competition

Seychelle products compete against companies offering water filtration and bottled water including ,(1) bottled water and (2)home water treatment systems provided by suppliers (such as independent dealers, distributors, catalogs, internet sellers, etc.) in the form of reverse osmosis systems, distillation, and filtration systems.  Therefore, Seychelles’ portable and home filtration products compete in a limited segment of the drinking water market as an alternative to other sources of filtered or purified drinking water.

Seychelle has a negligible share of the world’s filtered or purified water market. Our products sell in a niche category of the market - portable filtration bottles that use powder-activated carbon filters that compete with our powder-activated coconut filters with various media called ionic adsorption micron filtration technology (IAMF) which remove many organic and inorganic contaminants that simple activated carbon filters cannot. Most powder activated carbon filters on the market remove Chlorine, sediment and dirt thus improving taste and odor, as well as a handful of other contaminants such as Lead, Mercury, Zinc and Copper. This would include leading brands such as Brita, PUR, General Electric and Culligan, who collectively dominate the home market. In the portable segment of the market, there are hundreds of small companies selling a variety of specialized filters with no one company having a majority share and no industry data available. We believe that our current share of this market is negligible.

Seychelle sells its products in two ways. First, it sells its own brand to individuals, dealers, distributors, multilevel marketing companies and missionaries on a direct basis, and through our internet web site. Second, the Company offers  specially designed products to the same customers as a private label supplier if purchasers buy in significant volume. In some instances, we may supply only filters for their bottles or hydration backpacks as opposed to complete products.

Currently, the majority of our sales are to customers in the U.S.  However, we are in contact with several overseas distributors and sales could increase in the future in these countries if customers have a greater demand for safe drinking water  As of February 28, 2010, we had three customers, each respectively accounting for 26%, 13% and 12%, respectively, of our total sales.

Backlog

As of February 28, 2010, we had a backlog of $120,293 in unshipped orders.

Employees

As of February 28, 2010, we had a President and two (2) executive employees managing the Company with two (2) administrative employees supporting that effort.  In assembly, operations and warehousing we had two (2) full-time employees and two (2) independent contractors working to fill orders.
 
Proprietary Information and Technology

We own a patent for the portable water filtration system with the filter cap assembly, Patent # 5,914,045 that expires on June 22, 2016. As described in the Abstract, it is "[a] filter assembly for a flexible, portable bottle having a sealing cap including a filter attached to the interior of the cap to filter out substantially all inorganics, organics, radiological chemicals and microbiology. The filter assembly also may include a second filter or iodinator sealed in the flexible bottle to further remove micro-organisms from water passing there-through. The filter assembly is designed so that the flexible bottle must be pressurized, as by being hand pressed, after it is filled with water to force flow of water through the [sic] either or both of the filters. The filter in the cap includes a check valve to allow the bottle to be re-pressurized after water has been dispensed from the bottle." The filter cap assembly is the core to the Company’s product lines.  The media itself, the formulation process, and manufacturing methodology are governed by trade secrets.
 
We own a second patent for a water filtration bottle, Patent # 6,004,460 that expires December 21, 2016. It is a combination filter assembly and flexible, portable bottle having a bottom opening with a sealing cap attached thereto, to filter out substantially all inorganics, organics, radiological chemicals and microbiology held in water in the bottle. The filter assembly may be attached to an adapter sealed to the top of the flexible bottle. Water in the bottle passes through the filter assembly and out a top nozzle or valve when the flexible bottle is squeezed. The flexible bottle is filled with water through the bottom opening.
 
We also own a third patent, Patent #6,058,971 that expires on May 9, 2017 for a quick connect diverter valve. As described in the abstract, it is "A quick-connect diverter valve for use in connecting existing water faucets and water filtration units in and around a kitchen, or other areas where clean water is desired." The quick connect diverter value is used in the above the counter filter system currently being sold in the United States, Pakistan and China. The Company believes this is a viable and growing product line for developing countries where the quality of water continues to deteriorate.

We signed an exclusive license agreement with Gary Hess (the “License Agreement”), doing business as Aqua Gear USA on June 6, 2002 for a product known as the "Hand Held Pump Technology." We licensed all proprietary rights associated with this technology. We pay a 2% royalty on our gross sales for the technology during the term of the License Agreement. The License Agreement was for an initial term of five years and was renewed with four successive five-year renewals remaining. This offers us an additional proprietary product in the portable filtration industry. We believe that this License Agreement compliments our current product line. This technology, which was integrated into a product in 2005, resulted in a product called Pump N’ Pure which allows the user to draw filtered water from virtually any container or location. The Company continues to believe that the product will be viable in developing countries, as an emergency preparedness product, and for families where cost is a prime consideration. The Company commenced marketing the Hand Held Pump as part of its Aqua Gear product line in the U.S. sporting goods industry in fiscal 2008.

During July 2006, the Company signed a second exclusive license agreement (the “Second Agreement”) with Gary Hess, doing business as Aqua Gear USA. We will pay a 2% royalty on net sales for this technology up to $120,000 and 1% thereafter.  This agreement included the issuance of 100,000 warrants to Gary Hess  The Second Agreement shall continue indefinitely unless terminated due to a default or breach of the agreement. This affords the Company additional patent protection (patent # 6,136,188) and ownership of the trademark Aqua Gear. Products affected include all Aqua Gear trademarked filter bottles sold in the product line.  As of the date of this document, approximately $30,300 in royalties has been paid under these license agreements.

During April 2006, the Company issued 50,000 shares of common stock to the shareholders of Continental Technologies, Inc. (Continental) with an approximate value of $16,100 for the Redi Chlor brand name, trademark and the use of the EPA Registration Number 55304-4-7126.  However, as of this date we have replaced the Redi Chlor product with the integration of BIOSAFE® antimicrobial media to all Seychelle water filters.  Seychelle has been granted a worldwide exclusive license for the BIOSAFE® technology.  BIOSAFE® is an effective antimicrobial polymer that physically disrupts the target organism’s cell membrane, thereby reducing microbial contamination by 99.99%.  BIOSAFE is safe, non-toxic and non-leaching, EPA approved and has been reviewed by the FDA as a modifier of medical devices.  Tests were performed under NSF standards.  BIOSAFE patented technology has proven to be effective against bacteria, fungi (mold and mildew), yeast, algae and certain viruses.  BIOSAFE® is colorless, tasteless, and odorless and has an indefinite shelf life.

As these patents expire over 6 and 7 years, the Company cannot at this time estimate the financial impact of the expiration of these patents.

Trademark registrations have been filed with the United States Patent and Trademark Office for Seychelle, Aqua Gear and Pres 2 Pure and have been approved.

We have a trade name, "Seychelle Water Filtration Products, Inc.," which we use in our commercial operations.

Government Regulation

We are not, as a company, subject to any material governmental regulation or approvals. However, our products are subject to inspection and evaluation by regulatory authorities that have jurisdiction over water quality standards. Such authorities are on the federal, state, and local level, both in the United States and overseas, where we market our products. Most of our products have already been inspected and evaluated by all applicable governmental authorities in the areas in which we operate or plan to operate in the near future. With respect to our current focus of operations, we do not know if governmental regulation will have a material impact on us in the future.

Research and Development

We did not spend a significant amount for research and development activities during the fiscal year ended February 28, 2010.  Virtually all research, development and testing are performed by Carl Palmer, the Company’s CEO, as part of his day-to-day duties.  

Environmental Compliance

At the present time, Seychelle is not subject to any material costs for compliance with any environmental laws. With respect to our current focus of operations, we do not know if environmental compliance will have a material impact on us in the future.  
 

Item 1A. RISK FACTORS

THE OWNERSHIP AND INVESTMENT IN OUR SECURITIES INVOLVES SUBSTANTIAL RISKS. OUR COMMON SHARES SHOULD BE PURCHASED ONLY BY PERSONS WHO CAN AFFORD TO LOSE THEIR ENTIRE INVESTMENT. PROSPECTIVE INVESTORS SHOULD CAREFULLY CONSIDER THESE RISKS RELATING TO OUR COMPANY.

Lack of Profitable History

Through February 28, 2009, we had incurred significant losses. However, sales activity for the twelve months ended February 28, 2010 increased significantly over the past year, and we have recorded profits and positive cash flows from operations. We had net income for the year ended February 28, 2010 of $562,930 compared to a net loss in the year ended February 28, 2009 of $312,688.  This reduced the accumulated deficit to $6,452,919.  Nevertheless, we have a limited history of profitable financial results upon which an investor may judge our potential. The Company has not engaged in enough consistent profitable business activity over a sustained period of time to be said to have a successful operating history. We have experienced in the past and may experience in the future under-capitalization, shortages, setbacks and many of the problems, delays and expenses encountered by any early stage business.

Because we are a Company with a limited operating history, our operations will be subject to intense competition and subject to numerous risks.

The water filtration business is highly competitive with many companies having access to the same market. Substantially all of them have greater financial resources and longer operating histories than we have and can be expected to compete within the business in which we engage and intend to engage. There can be no assurance that we will have the necessary resources to be competitive. Therefore, investors should consider an investment in us to be an extremely risky venture.

We have a limited product line, and the development of some of our technologies has taken longer than anticipated and could be additionally delayed.

There can be no assurance of timely completion and introduction of improved products on a cost-effective basis, or that such products, if introduced, will achieve market acceptance such that, in combination with existing products will allow us to sustain or achieve profitable operations.

As an organization, we are dependent upon technology for the development of our products.

We are operating in a business that requires continuing research, development and testing efforts. There can be no assurance that new products will not render our products obsolete or non-competitive at some time in the future.

Our success as an organization depends, in large part, upon our ability to protect our intellectual property rights.

A successful challenge to the ownership of our technology could materially damage our business prospects. We rely principally on trade secrets as well as trade secret laws, three patents, three trademarks, copyrights, confidentiality procedures and licensing arrangements to protect our intellectual property rights. We currently have three U.S. patents issued and a license on one patent.  Any issued patent may be challenged and invalidated. Patents may not be issued from any of our future applications. Any claims allowed from existing or future pending patents may not be of sufficient scope or strength to provide significant protection for our products. Patents may not be issued in all countries where our products can be sold so as to provide meaningful protection or any commercial advantage to us. Our competitors may also be able to design around our patents or the patents that we license.
Vigorous protection and pursuit of intellectual property rights or positions characterize our industry, which has resulted in significant and often protracted and expensive litigation. Therefore, our competitors may assert that our technologies or products infringe on their patents or proprietary rights. Problems with patents or other rights could increase the cost of our products or delay or preclude new product development and commercialization by us. If infringement claims against us are deemed valid, we may not be able to obtain appropriate licenses on acceptable terms or at all. Litigation could be costly and time-consuming but may be necessary to protect our future patent and/or technology license positions or to defend against infringement claims.

Many of our competitors have substantially greater capabilities and resources and may be able to develop and commercialize products before we do.

Technological competition from larger and more established companies is significant and expected to increase. Most of the companies with which we compete and expect to compete have far greater capital resources and significant research and development staffs, marketing and distribution programs and facilities, and many of them have substantially greater experience in the production and marketing of products. Our ability to compete effectively may be adversely affected by the ability of these competitors to devote greater resources to the sale and marketing of their products than we can. In addition, one or more of our competitors may succeed or may already have succeeded in developing technologies and products that are more effective than any of those we currently offer or are developing. In addition, there can be no guarantee that we will be able to protect our technology from being copied or infringed upon. Therefore, there are no assurances that we will ever be able to maintain our recently achieved profitable position in the marketplace.

Our success is dependent upon the decision making of our directors and executive officers.

Our directors and executive officers have made a full commitment to our business. The loss of any or all of these individuals could have a materially adverse impact on our operations We will depend on our senior executive officers as well as other key personnel. If any key employee decides to terminate his employment with us, this termination could delay the commercialization of our products or prevent us from becoming profitable. Competition for qualified employees is intense among companies in our industry, and the loss of qualified employees, or an inability to attract, retain and motivate additional highly skilled employees required for the expansion of our activities, could hinder our ability to successfully develop and maintain marketable products. 

 
- 7 -

 
We have a significant dependence on a few customers.

For the year ended February 28, 2010, three customers collectively accounted for greater than 50% of our total sales.   Management believes that if future revenues from its significant customer decline those revenues can be replaced through the sales to other customers.  However, there can be no assurance that this will occur which could result in an adverse effect on the Company’s financial condition or results of operations in the future.

Our Senior Management’s Limited Experience Managing A Publicly Traded Company May Divert Management’s Attention From Operations and Harm Our Business.  

Our management team has relatively limited recent experience managing a publicly traded company and complying with federal securities laws, including compliance with recently adopted disclosure requirements on a timely basis.  Our management will be required to design and implement appropriate programs and policies in responding to increased legal, regulatory compliance and reporting requirements, and any failure to do so could lead to the imposition of fines and penalties and harm our business.

The Acquisition of Other Technologies Could Result In Operating Difficulties, Dilution and Other Harmful Consequences.  

We may selectively pursue strategic acquisitions, any of which could be material to our business, operating results and financial condition.  Future acquisitions could divert management’s time and focus from operating our business.  In addition, integrating an acquired technology is risky and may result in unforeseen operating difficulties and expenditures.

The anticipated benefits of our future acquisitions may not materialize.  Future acquisitions or dispositions could result in potentially dilutive issuances of our equity securities, including our common stock, the incurrence of debt, contingent liabilities, or write-offs of intellectual properties any of which could harm our financial condition.  Future acquisitions may also require us to obtain additional financing, which may not be available on favorable terms or at all.

We Face Risks Associated With Currency Exchange Rate Fluctuations.  

Although we currently transact business primarily in U.S. dollars, a large portion of our revenues and related cost of goods sold may be determined in foreign currencies if we continue to expand our international operations.  Conducting business in currencies other than U.S. dollars subjects the Company to fluctuations in currency exchange rates that could have a negative impact on our reported operating results.  Fluctuations in the value of the U.S. dollar relative to other currencies may impact our revenue, cost of goods sold and operating gross margin and result in foreign currency translation gains and losses.  Historically, we have not engaged in exchange rate hedging activities.

Changes to Financial Accounting or Other Standards May Affect Our Operating Results and Cause Us To Change Our Business Practices.    

We prepare our consolidated financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, or GAAP, in the United States.  These accounting principles are issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB).  The Securities and Exchange Commission also provide interpretation, guidance and principles in the preparation of financial statements.  A change in those policies could have a significant effect on our reported results and may affect our reporting of transactions completed before a change is announced.
 
For example, the Company has used stock warrants, restricted stock, and other equity incentives as a fundamental component of our executive compensation packages.  The Company believes that stock warrants and other equity incentives directly motivate our executives to maximize long-term stockholder value and, through the use of vesting, encourage executives to remain with the Company; however, grants of equity based compensation are measure at their grant date fair value and recognized over the requisite service period, if any.  We may, as a result of these accounting principles, record and present compensation costs, change our equity compensation strategy that could affect our ability to attract, retain and motivate employees, which could materially and adversely affect our business, operating results and financial condition.
 
Our Financial Results Could Vary Significantly From Quarter to Quarter and Are Difficult to Predict.  

Our revenues and operating results could vary significantly from quarter to quarter because of a variety of factors, many of which are outside of our control.  As a result, comparing our operating results on a period-to-period basis may not be meaningful.  In addition, we may not be able to predict our future revenues or results of operations.  We base our budgeted expense levels on our internal operating plans and anticipated sales levels, and our historical operating costs which are to a large extent fixed.  As a result, we may not be able to reduce our costs sufficiently to compensate for an unexpected shortfall in revenues, and even a small shortfall in revenues could disproportionately and adversely affect financial results for that period.  In addition, any payments due to us from our customers may be delayed because of changes or issues with those customers’ processes.

If We Fail in Maintaining Effective Internal Control Over Financial Reporting, The Price of Our Common Stock May be Adversely Affected.  However, We Have Determined That Our Internal Control Over Financial Reporting Are Effective as of February 28, 2010,

We are required to establish and maintain appropriate internal control over financial reporting.  Failure to establish those controls, or any failure of those controls once established, could adversely impact our public disclosure regarding our business, financial condition or results of operations.  In addition, our future assessments of internal control over financial reporting may identify additional weaknesses and conditions that need to be addressed in our internal control over financial reporting or other matters that may raise concerns for investors.  Any material weaknesses that need to be addressed in management’s assessment of our internal control over financial reporting or in the report on the effectiveness of our internal controls by our independent registered public accounting firm, when applicable, may have an adverse impact of our common stock.
 
Standards for Compliance with Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 are Uncertain, and If We Fail to Comply in a Timely Manner, Our Business Could Be Harmed and Our Stock Price Could Decline.  

Rules adopted by the SEC pursuant to Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 require management’s annual assessment of our internal control over financial reporting.  The standards that must be met for the management to assess the internal control over financial reporting as effective are complex, and require significant documentation, testing, and possible remediation to meet the detailed standards.  We have incurred, and expect to incur, significant expenses and to devote resources to Section 404 compliance during fiscal year 2010 and on an ongoing basis.  It is difficult for us to predict how long it will take to complete the assessment of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting each year and to remediate any deficiencies in our internal control over financial reporting.  As a result, we may not be able to complete the assessment and remediation process on a timely basis.  In the event that our Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer determines that our internal control over financial reporting is not effective as defined under Section 404, we cannot predict how regulators will react on how the market prices of our shares will be affected, however, we believe that there is a risk that investor confidence and share value may be negatively impacted.

Maintaining and Improving Our Financial Controls and The Requirements Of Being a Public Company May Strain Our Resources, Divert Managements Attention and Affect Our Ability to Attract and Retain Qualified Members For Our Board of Directors.  

As a public company, we are subject to the reporting requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002.  The requirements of these rules and regulations increase our legal, accounting, and financial compliance costs, make some activities more difficult, time-consuming and costly and may also place undue strain on our personnel, systems, and resources.  The Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 requires, among other things, that we maintain effective disclosure controls and procedures and internal controls over financial reporting.  Fulfilling this requirement can be difficult to achieve and maintain.

As a result, management’s attention may be diverted from other business concerns, which could harm our business, operating results and financial condition.  These efforts also involve substantial costs.

Our articles of incorporation and bylaws could discourage acquisition proposals, delay a change in control, or prevent other transactions.

Provisions of our articles of incorporation and bylaws, as well as provisions of the Nevada Business Corporation Act, may discourage, delay or prevent a change in control of our Company that you as a stockholder may consider favorable and may be in your best interest. Our certificate of incorporation and bylaws contain provisions that:
 
 authorize the issuance of  “blank check” preferred stock that could be issued by our board of directors to increase the number of outstanding shares and discourage a takeover attempt; and
   
 limit who may call special meetings of stockholders.

Our stock price can be volatile.

The future market price of our common stock could fluctuate widely because of:
   
future announcements about our Company or our competitors, including the results of testing, technological innovations or new commercial products;
   
negative regulatory actions with respect to our potential products or regulatory approvals with respect to our competitors’ products;
   
 changes in government regulations;
   
developments in our relationships with our partners including customers, vendors and distributors
   
developments affecting our partners; including customers, vendors and distributors
   
our failure to acquire or maintain proprietary rights to the products we develop;
   
 litigation; and
   
public concern as to the safety of our products.

The stock market has experienced price and volume fluctuations that have particularly affected the market price for many emerging companies. These fluctuations have often been unrelated to the operating performance of these companies. These broad market fluctuations may cause the market price of our common stock to be lower or more volatile than otherwise expected.

Buying low-priced penny stocks is very risky and speculative. The applicability of the “penny stock rules” to broker-dealer sales of our common stock will have a negative effect on the liquidity and market price of our common stock.

Trading in our shares is subject to the "penny stock rules" adopted pursuant to Rule 15g-9 of the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, which apply to companies that are not listed on an exchange and whose common stock trades at less than $5.00 per share or which have a tangible net worth of less than $5,000,000 - or $2,000,000 if we have been operating for three or more years. The penny stock rules impose additional sales practice requirements on broker-dealers which sell such securities to persons other than established customers and institutional accredited investors. For transactions covered by this rule, a broker-dealer must make a special suitability determination for the purchaser and have received the purchaser's written consent to the transaction prior to sale. Consequently, the penny stock rules will affect the ability of broker-dealers to sell shares of our common stock and may affect the ability of shareholders to sell their shares in the secondary market, as compliance with such rules may delay and/or preclude certain trading transactions. The rules could also have an adverse effect on the market price of our common stock.

These disclosure requirements may have the effect of reducing the level of trading activity in the secondary market for our common stock. Many brokers may be unwilling to engage in transactions in our common stock because of the added disclosure requirements, thereby making it more difficult for stockholders to dispose of their shares. You will also find it difficult to obtain accurate information about, and/or quotations as to the price of our common stock.

The lack of a broker or dealer to create or maintain a market in our common stock could adversely impact the price and liquidity of our securities.

We continue to have no agreements with any broker or dealer to act as a market maker for our securities and there is no assurance that we will be successful in obtaining any market makers. The lack of a market maker for our securities could adversely influence the market for and price of our securities, as well as your ability to dispose of, or to obtain accurate information about, and/or quotations as to the price of, our securities.

We do not expect to pay dividends on common stock.

We have not paid any cash dividends with respect to our common stock, and it is unlikely that we will pay any dividends on our common stock in the foreseeable future

ITEM 7. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

This discussion summarizes the significant factors affecting the operating results, financial condition, liquidity and cash flows of the Company and its subsidiary as of and for the fiscal years ended February 28, 2010 and 2009, respectively.  The discussion and analysis that follows should be read together with the consolidated financial statements of Seychelle Environmental Technologies, Inc. and the notes to the consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this annual report on Form 10-K.  Except for historical information, the matters discussed in this section are forward looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties and are based upon judgments concerning various factors that are beyond the Company’s control.

Application of Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

Our consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes are prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States. Preparing financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues, and expenses. These estimates and assumptions are affected by management’s application of accounting policies.

Critical accounting policies for us include our accounting for inventory reserves, and share based payment arrangements.

 
- 12 -

 

Inventory Reserves

At each balance sheet date, the Company evaluates its ending inventory for excess quantities and obsolescence.  This evaluation includes an analysis of sales levels by product type.  Among other factors, the Company considers current product configurations, historical and forecasted demand, market conditions and product life cycles when determining the market value of the inventory.  This requires significant judgments including estimation of future cash flows, which is dependent on internal forecasts, estimation of the long-term rate of growth for our business, and the period over which cash flows will occur. Provisions are made to reduce excess or obsolete inventories to their estimated market values.  Once established, write-downs are considered permanent adjustments to the cost basis of the excess or obsolete inventory.  The Company’s reserve for excess and obsolete inventory amounted to $70,662 as of February 28, 2010 and$134,313 as of February 28, 2009.

Share Based Payment

SFAS No. 123(R) (ASC 718), Share Based Payment, requires companies to estimate the fair value of share based payments on the date of grant. For stock grants, the Company uses the closing price on the date of grant. For warrants, the Company uses the Black Scholes option pricing model. In order to estimate the fair value of the warrants, certain assumptions are made regarding future events. Such assumptions include the estimated future volatility of the Company’s stock price, the expected lives of the awards and the expected dividends, and risk-free rate. Changes in these estimates would change the estimated fair value of the awards, the corresponding accounting for the awards.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In January 2010, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update 2010-02, Consolidation (Topic 810): Accounting and Reporting for Decreases in Ownership of a Subsidiary. This amendment to Topic 810 clarifies, but does not change, the scope of current US GAAP. It clarifies the decrease in ownership provisions of Subtopic 810-10 and removes the potential conflict between guidance in that Subtopic and asset derecognition and gain or loss recognition guidance that may exist in other US GAAP. An entity is required to follow the amended guidance beginning in the period that it first adopts FAS 160 (now included in Subtopic 810-10) or at the beginning of the first interim or annual reporting period ending on or after December 15, 2009. The amendments are to be applied retrospectively to the first period that an entity adopted FAS 160. The adoption of ASU 2010-02 did not have a material effect on the financial position, results of operations or cash flows of the Company.

In January 2010, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update 2010-01, Equity (Topic 505): Accounting for Distributions to Shareholders with Components of Stock and Cash (A Consensus of the FASB Emerging Issues Task Force). This amendment to Topic 505 clarifies the stock portion of a distribution to shareholders that allows them to elect to receive cash or stock with a limit on the amount of cash that will be distributed is not a stock dividend for purposes of applying Topics 505 and 260. Effective for interim and annual periods ending on or after December 15, 2009, and would be applied on a retrospective basis. The Company’s adoption of ASU 2010-01 during fiscal 2010 did not have a material effect on the financial position, results of operations or cash flows of the Company.

In December 2009, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update 2009-17, Consolidations (Topic 810): Improvements to Financial Reporting by Enterprises Involved with Variable Interest Entities. This Accounting Standards Update amends the FASB Accounting Standards Codification for Statement 167 is effective on a prospective basis for beginning on or after June 15, 2010.. The Company’s adoption of ASU 2009-17 on June 15, 2010 did not have a material effect on the financial position, results of operations or cash flows of the Company.

* See Note 13 to the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
 
Sales. The increase in sales is primarily attributable to growth in the sales of our plastic drinking bottles and our new stainless steel bottles throughout fiscal year ended February 28, 2010.  Three product groups accounted for the bulk of the increase.  Overall, these product groups accounted for 76% of the sales:  stainless steel bottles (14%),  plastic drinking bottles  (37%) and missionary packs  (25%).  Customer concentration is constantly changing which contributes to much of the fluctuation in sales.  During the fiscal year ended 2010, three customers accounted for 51% of total sales.  Management is actively pursuing additional sales opportunities by contacting potential new customers and we expect sales in the year ending February 28, 2011 to be comparable to or higher than the level in the year ended February 28, 2010.

Cost of sales and gross profit percentage.  The increase in cost of sales and corresponding increase in gross profit dollars and gross profit percentage is primarily due to the sale of higher gross margin products:  plastic drinking bottles, the new stainless steel bottles and the missionary pack versus prior year.   The higher gross margins for the plastic bottles, the stainless steel bottle and the missionary packs in the product mix more than offset the cost of sales increase which was due primarily to the higher cost for stainless steel bottles.  We are negotiating for better filter prices and believe that gross margins will improve further if we are successful in our negotiations and receive discounts due to volume purchases.
 
Selling, General and administrative expenses. The decrease in general and administrative expenses was primarily due to the reduction in non cash compensation expense from $534,178 to $18,297. This decrease was offset by an increase in sales commissions from $59,456 to $125,972, building rent from $107,849 to $123,029, administrative wages from $93,931 to $138,988, and marketing related expenses from $59,456 to $126,271.  There were no individual accounts that had variances which were material except those mentioned above.

Interest expense. Interest expense increased due to the Company acquiring a bagging machine through financing in the third quarter of fiscal year ended February 28, 2009 which was still being financed through the fiscal year ended February 28, 2010.

Interest income. The increase in interest income was due to higher balances being carried in interest bearing accounts at the bank.

Net Income (Loss). The net income for the fiscal year ended February 28, 2010 was $562,930 or 280% more than 2009 due to the increase in sales during the year.   In addition to the increase in sales, this improvement in net income was also the result of better overall control of expenses and the continued emphasis on higher gross margin items. Further, we expect continued improvement in the profitability of the Company.  Even though year ended February 28, 2009 was restated as noted above, the net amount of the restatement of $17,467 was not considered material by accounting standards as can be seen in the statement of operations and in Note 13 to the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements.
 
CONTRACTUAL OBLIGATIONS, COMMITMENTS AND OFF BALANCE SHEET ARRANGEMENTS

The Company has various contractual obligations, which are recorded as liabilities in the consolidated financial statements. Other items, such as certain lease agreements are not recognized as liabilities in our consolidated financial statements but are required to be disclosed. For example, the Company is contractually committed to make certain minimum lease payments to rent its current corporate location.

Liquidity and capital resources.
 
Net cash provided by operating activities. During the fiscal years ended February 28, 2010 and 2009, the Company funded its operations though sales of products and minimal level of borrowings. The Company also continues to pay some of its vendors in common stock instead of cash. Additionally, the Company has historically paid its related party interest expense in stock purchase warrants. These activities conserve cash. Additionally, the Company has been successful in collecting its accounts receivable timely, which also helps with operating cash flow.  Total cash provided through operations totaled $490,666 in 2010 and $52,159 in 2009.  This increase is primarily due to the increase in sales from 2009 to 2010.
 
Net cash used in investing activities. The $36,982 and $28,397 of cash used in investment activities during fiscal 2010 and 2009 cash used is due to purchasing equipment throughout each year in connection with the move to our new facilities.

Net cash used in financing activities. In 2010, we repaid $111,932 in notes payable. In 2009, we obtained $75,000 in additional financing from related party loans and $35,000 in other loans.  Repayments of notes payable totaled $111,982 and $3,198 in 2010 and 2009, respectively.
Our principal sources of liquidity have historically been borrowings from one of our principal shareholders.  As of February 28, 2010, the shareholder has loaned the Company $471,088, under five separate notes with rates varying from 3.25% to 10% simple interest, repayable under different terms over a seven year period beginning May 1, 2011 (see note 7 to Consolidated Financial Statements).   The Company has accrued $50,034 for interest costs to the related party as of February 28, 2010.  The Company believes it has liquidity and committed funds to meet its operating needs through fiscal 2011.

The Company currently estimates monthly cash requirements of $60,000 to cover selling, general and administrative costs. Gross profits from sales are expected to provide sufficient cash flows to meet these cash requirements and pay contractual commitments.

As of February 28, 2010, the Company has unrestricted cash of approximately $500,000 and a backlog of $120,293 in orders to fill.  The Company believes that additional funding may still be required in the form of related party notes or other shareholder investment.   During April 2008, the TAM Trust committed to providing up to $250,000 in additional funding, if required.  As of February 28, 2010, $22,000 of this commitment was available to us.

Capital expenditures.

We do not expect any major capital expenditures in fiscal 2011.  However, minor purchases of additional molds or tooling may be needed to expand our product line.  We will be able to fund these purchases from cash on hand and we will not require outside financing.


 
- 15 -

 
Research and development.

We are operating in a business that requires research, development and testing efforts.  However, there is no separate allocation of salaries for Carl Palmer in research and development from his responsibility as the Company’s President.   The portable filtration bottles are continuously being redesigned to find the most efficient way to produce the product while making all products as high quality as possible.

Employees.  

We anticipate no additional executive and non-executive hiring.  Any projected increase in the business can be handled through the addition of variable and independent contractors and outside consultants.

Any seasonal aspects
 
We have not experienced seasonal sales spikes in our sales as a result of our very limited retail store distribution.
 
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements : None

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

 

To the Board of Directors
Seychelle Environmental Technologies, Inc.
San Juan Capistrano, California

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Seychelle Environmental Technologies, Inc and its subsidiary (the “Company”) as of February 28, 2010 and 2009, and the related consolidated statements of operations, stockholders’ equity (deficit) and cash flows for the years then ended.  These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management.  Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States).  Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements are free of material misstatement.  The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting.  Our audit included consideration of internal controls over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated financial statements.  An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall consolidated financial statement presentation.  We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of the Company as of February 28, 2010 and 2009, and the results of their consolidated operations, and their consolidated cash flows for the years then ended, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

As discussed in Note 13 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company has restated its consolidated financial statements for the year ended February 28, 2009 to correct certain errors.

SEYCHELLE ENVIRONMENTAL TECHNOLOGIES, INC.
Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements


NOTE 1:   ORGANIZATION AND DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS

Organization

Seychelle Environmental Technologies, Inc. (the “Company”) was incorporated under the laws of the State of Nevada on January 23, 1998 as a change in domicile to Royal Net, Inc., a Utah corporation that was originally incorporated on January 24, 1986. Royal Net, Inc. changed its state of domicile to Nevada and its name to Seychelle Environmental Technologies, Inc. effective in January 1998.  Seychelle Water Technologies, Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary, was formed as a corporation in February 1997 under the laws of the state of Nevada for the purpose of marketing.

Description of Business

The Company designs, assembles and distributes water filtration systems. These systems include portable water bottles that can be filled from nearly any available source of water.
 

NOTE 2:   SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Principles of Consolidation

The Company is presently comprised of Seychelle Environmental Technologies, Inc., a Nevada corporation, with one wholly-owned subsidiary, Seychelle Water Technologies, Inc., also a Nevada corporation (collectively, the Company or Seychelle). All significant intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of the consolidated financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States, 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 periods. Significant estimates made in preparing the consolidated financial statements include the allowance for doubtful accounts, sales returns, stock based compensation, inventory reserves, valuation allowances for property and equipment and intangible assets, deferred income tax valuation allowances and litigation. To the extent there are material differences between estimates and the actual results, future results of operations will be affected.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

Cash equivalents are comprised of certain highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less when purchased.  The Company maintains its cash in bank deposit accounts which at times may exceed federally insured limits of $250,000.  The Company has not experienced any losses related to this concentration of risk. Deposits exceeded insured limits by approximately $228,883 as of February 28, 2010.

Accounts Receivable

The Company performs periodic credit evaluations of its customers’ financial condition and does not require collateral. Trade receivables generally are due in 30 days. An allowance for doubtful accounts is recorded when it is probable that all or a portion of trade receivables balance will not be collected. The Company’s allowance for doubtful accounts was $11,537 and $3,986, as of February 28, 2010 and 2009.

NOTE 2:   SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)

Inventory

Inventory is stated at the lower of cost or market. Cost is determined on a first-in, first-out basis. Inventory is comprised of raw materials, work in process and finished goods.  Raw materials consist of fittings, caps and other components necessary to assemble the Company’s finished goods.  Finished goods consist of water bottles and other filtration systems that are available for shipment to customers.  Finished goods and work in process include the costs of materials, labor and an allocation of overhead.  Total overhead allocated to inventory as of February 28, 2010 and 2009 amounted to $128,875 and $185,633, respectively.

At each balance sheet date, the Company evaluates its ending inventory for excess quantities and obsolescence.  This evaluation includes an analysis of sales levels by product type.  Among other factors, the Company considers current product configurations, historical and forecasted demand, market conditions and product life cycles when determining the net realizable value of the inventory.  Provisions are made to reduce excess or obsolete inventories to their estimated net realizable values.  Once established, write-downs are considered permanent adjustments to the cost basis of the excess or obsolete inventory.  The Company’s reserve for excess and obsolete inventory amounted to $70,662 and $134,313 as of February 28, 2010 and 2009, respectively.

Property and Equipment

Property and equipment are stated at cost.  Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the depreciable assets.  The estimated useful lives used in determining depreciation are three to five years for tooling, five years for computers and vehicles, and five to seven years for furniture and equipment. Management evaluates useful lives regularly in order to determine recoverability.

Maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred; additions and betterments are capitalized. Upon retirement or sale, the cost and related accumulated depreciation of the disposed assets are removed, and any resulting gain or loss is recorded. Fully depreciated assets are not removed from the accounts until physical disposition.

Intangible Assets

Intangible assets include patents and purchased product rights and technology costs. All patents and purchased product rights and technology costs are capitalized and amortized over the economic useful lives using the straight-line method.  The Company assesses whether there has been a permanent impairment of the value of intangible assets by considering factors such as expected future product revenues, anticipated product demand and prospects and other economic factors.

Long-Lived Assets

In accordance with ASC 360, Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets, long-lived assets, such as property and equipment, and purchased intangible assets subject to amortization, are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. If circumstances require a long-lived asset be tested for possible impairment, the Company first compares undiscounted cash flows expected to be generated by an asset to the carrying value of the asset. If the carrying value of the long-lived asset is not recoverable on an undiscounted cash flow basis, impairment is recognized to the extent that the carrying value exceeds its fair value. Fair value is determined through various valuation techniques including discounted cash flow models, quoted market values and third-party independent appraisals, as considered necessary.

Customer Deposits

Customer deposits represent advance payments received for products and are recognized as revenue in accordance with the Company’s revenue recognition policy.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

For certain financial instruments, including accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued expenses, the carrying amounts approximate fair value due to their relatively short maturities. In the case of the notes payable, the interest rate on the notes approximates the market rate of interest for similar borrowings. Consequently the carrying value of the notes payable also approximates the fair value. It is not practicable to estimate the fair value of the related party notes payable due to the relationship of the counterparty.

SEYCHELLE ENVIRONMENTAL TECHNOLOGIES, INC.
Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements


NOTE 2:   SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)

Warranty

Certain of the Company’s sales include a right for the customer to return the product if they are not satisfied.  The Company has an unconditional return policy for the first 90 days.  Customers may return the product for a full refund, or they may receive a replacement at no charge. The same policy applies to any product sold from the period 91 days after purchase to one year, for any defects in materials or workmanship.  In accordance with ASC 740, Revenue Recognition When Right of Return Exists, the Company makes periodic assessments of return activity and if necessary records a reserve for product returns. As of February 28, 2010 and 2009, the reserve was not significant.

Revenue Recognition

The Company recognizes revenue when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, title has passed, the price to the buyer is fixed or determinable and collectability is reasonably assured.  These criteria are typically met when the product is shipped. Revenue is not recognized at the time of shipment if these criteria are not met.

Cost of Sales
 
Cost of sales is comprised primarily of the cost of purchased product, as well as labor, inbound freight costs, allocated overhead costs  and other material costs required to complete products including inventory markdowns due to excess and obsolete inventory.

Shipping and Handling

All amounts billed to customers relating to shipping and handling are reported as a component of product sales. Costs incurred by the Company for shipping and handling, including transportation costs paid to third party shippers, are reported as a component of cost of sales.

Sales Tax

The Company collects sales tax in various jurisdictions. Upon collection from customers, it records the amount as a payable to the related jurisdiction. On a periodic basis, it files a sales tax return with the jurisdictions and remits the amount indicated on the return. Any difference between what it collected and what it remits to the taxing authorities is recorded on a net basis into operations.

Advertising

Advertising costs are expensed as incurred.  Total advertising expenses amounted to $126,272 and $59,456 for the fiscal years ended February 28, 2010 and 2009, respectively, and recorded as selling, general and administrative expenses.

Research and Development

Research and development costs are expensed as incurred and amounted to $589 and $3,101 for the fiscal years ended February 28, 2010 and 2009, respectively. These costs are included in general and administrative expenses in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations.

Share Based Payment

The Company follows ASC 718, Share Based Payment, which establishes standards for the accounting for transactions in which an entity exchanges its equity instruments for goods or services, primarily focusing on accounting for transactions where an entity obtains services in share based payment transactions. ASC 718 requires entities to measure the cost of services received in exchange equity instruments, including stock options and warrants, based on the grant date fair value of the award and to recognize it as compensation expense over the period services are to be provided, usually the vesting period.

The fair value of options is calculated using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model. This model was developed to estimate the fair value of freely tradable, fully transferable options without vesting restrictions. As such, the values derived from using that model can differ significantly from other methods of valuing the Company’s share based payment arrangements. The Black-Scholes model also requires subjective assumptions, including future stock price volatility and expected time to exercise, which greatly affect the calculated values.  These factors could change in the future, affecting the determination of share based payment expense in future periods.

NOTE 2:   SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)

Share Based Payment (Continued)

The Company’s fair value calculations for share based compensation awards for the fiscal years ended February 28, 2010 and February 29, 2009 were based on the following assumptions.

The assumptions used in the Black Scholes models referred to above are based upon the following data: (1) The expected life of the warrant is estimated by considering the contractual term of the warrant, the vesting period and the expected exercise price. (2) The expected stock price volatility of the underlying shares over the expected term is based upon historical share price data. (3) The risk free interest rate is based on published U.S. Treasury Department interest rates for the expected terms. (4) Expected dividends are based on historical dividend data and expected future dividend activity.

Income Taxes

The Company utilizes the asset and liability method of accounting for income taxes.  The asset and liability method requires that the current or deferred tax consequences of all events recognized in the financial statements are measured by applying the provisions of enacted tax laws to determine the amount of taxes payable or refundable currently or in future years. Deferred tax assets are reviewed for recoverability and the Company records a valuation allowance to reduce its deferred tax assets when it is more likely than not that all or some portion of the deferred tax assets will not be recovered.

The Company recognizes and measures of uncertain tax positions using a “more-likely-than-not” approach, requiring the recognition and measurement of uncertain tax positions. The Company had no material uncertain tax positions at February 28, 2010 or 2009.

Income (Loss) Per Common Share

Basic net income (loss) per common share is computed by dividing the net income (loss) by the weighted average number of outstanding common shares during the periods presented. . Diluted net earnings (loss) per common share is determined using the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period, adjusted for the dilutive effect of common stock equivalents. In periods when losses are reported, the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding excludes common stock equivalents, because their inclusion would be anti-dilutive.  The dilutive effect of outstanding stock options and warrants is reflected in diluted earnings per share by application of the treasury stock method.

Significant Agreements

Effective December 1, 2001, the Company entered into an employment agreement with the President of the Company. The agreement is for five years and provides for a salary of $10,000 per year plus one percent of the net after tax profits of the Company as reported in the Company's Form 10-K. The agreement shall be automatically renewed for successive one-year terms unless the Company or employee provides written notice of non-renewal. For the year ended February 28, 2010, even though the Company recognized a net after tax profit, the President declined to take the compensation as specified in the agreement; therefore, an accrual was not deemed necessary.

In June 2002 the Company entered into a license agreement for a product known as the “Hand Held Pump Technology.”  The Company licensed all proprietary rights associated with this technology.  The Company will pay a 2% royalty on its gross sales for the technology during the term of the license agreement. The license agreement is for an initial term of five years, with five successive five-year renewals.  This technology has resulted in a product called Pump N’ Pure which allows the user to draw filtered water from virtually any container or location.  The Company has commenced marketing the Hand Held Pump as part of its Aqua Gear product line to the United States sporting goods industry. During the year ended February 28, 2010 and 2009 the Company paid $-0- and $-0-, in license fees.
 
During July 2006, the Company signed a second exclusive license agreement for a patent and ownership of the trademark Aqua Gear. The Company will pay a 2% royalty on net sales for this technology up to $120,000 and 1% thereafter.  The license agreement shall continue indefinitely unless terminated due to a default or breach of the agreement. Products affected include all Aqua Gear trademarked filter bottles and flip up bottles sold in the product line.  As of the date of this document, approximately $30,300 in royalties has been paid under these license agreements. During the year ended February 28, 2010 and 2009 the Company paid $-0- and $-0-, in license fees.
 
During April 2006, the Company issued 50,000 common shares with an approximate value of $16,100 for the Redi Chlor brand name, trademark and the use of the EPA Registration Number 55304-4-7126. During the fiscal year ended February 28, 2007, the Company commenced selling the Redi Chlor brand name water chlorine tablets to consumers, dealers, distributors and manufacturers. In connection with this agreement, the Company is also obligated to remit a 10% commission on net sales, as defined, of the existing product, or any new products sold directly by the Company, and 10% on any product sold by the counterparty on behalf of Seychelle.  The agreement is for the life of the Company.  During the year ended February 28, 2010 and 2009 the Company paid $-0- and $-0-, in license fees.

NOTE 13:  RESTATEMENT OF FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

On August 27, 2009 the Company was informed that the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board ("PCAOB") revoked the registration of Moore & Associates who was serving as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm.  The revocation was a result of Moore’s violation of PCAOB rules and auditing standards.  As a result, Moore & Associates was not licensed to issue an opinion on the Company’s consolidated financial statements for the fiscal year ended February 28, 2009.  During the reaudit of the 2009 consolidated financial statements, we identified misstatements to our previously filed financial information as reported on our Form 10-K as filed on May 22, 2009.  These misstatements during fiscal 2009 were the result of the improper recognition of an airplane recorded as an asset held for sale within current assets and a corresponding related note payable classified within both current and long-term liabilities in 2008.  The Company ultimately disposed of the airplane and recorded the sale.  The Company also incorrectly classified warrants issued on settlement of amounts due as prepaid expenses in the amount of $56,243.  Certain amounts reported in the income statement were also reclassified.  The restatement reflects the reversal of all transactions related to the acquisition and disposal of the airplane that was never in fact owned by the Company.  The effect of the adjustments on the Company’s income statement was a reduction of the February 28, 2009 net loss by $15,909.  Other adjustments and reclassifications within sales and cost of sales were identified that further reduced the February 28, 2009 net loss by $1,558.

ITEM 9. DISAGREEMENTS WITH ACCOUNTANTS ON ACCOUNTING AND FINANCIAL DISCLOSURE.

We did not have any disagreements on accounting and financial disclosures with our present independent registered public accounting firm during the reporting period.


ITEM 9A(T). CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES.

Conclusion Regarding the Effectiveness of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, we conducted an evaluation of our disclosure controls and procedures, as such term is defined under Rule 13a-15(e) promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the Exchange Act).  As a result of this evaluation, we identified no material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting as of February 28, 2010.  Accordingly, we concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of February 28, 2010.

Our internal control over financial reporting (ICFR) are designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of consolidated financial statements for external purposes in accordance with U. S. generally accepted accounting principles. Our internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that:
 
i.            pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of our assets;
ii.            provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit the preparation of our  consolidated financial statements in accordance with U. S. generally accepted accounting principles, and that our receipts and expenditures are being made only in accordance with authorizations of our management and directors; and
iii.           provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of our assets that could have a material effect on the consolidated financial statements.

Management’s Annual Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting.

Management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting.  Our management conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting based on the framework in Internal Control — Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission.  Based on our evaluation, management has concluded, as of February 28, 2010, we did maintain effective control over the financial reporting process.

Inherent Limitations Over Internal Controls

Internal control over financial reporting cannot provide absolute assurance of achieving financial reporting objectives because of its inherent limitations, including the possibility of human error and circumvention by collusion or overriding of controls. Accordingly, even an effective internal control system may not prevent or detect material misstatements on a timely basis. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.
 
Remediation of Material Weakness
 
As discussed in Management’s Annual Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting, as of February 28, 2009, there were material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting. During fiscal year ended February 28, 2010, we employed additional information technology and financial consultants to ensure that there are sufficient resources within the Company to prepare our interim and annual consolidated financial statements and disclosures in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.  We have taken steps to create more compensating controls in the financial statement close process to ensure that there is adequate review and approval by management.
 
Through these steps, we believe we have addressed the deficiencies that affected our internal control over financial reporting as of February 28, 2009. However, the effectiveness of any system of internal controls is subject to inherent limitations and there can be no assurance that our internal control over financial reporting will prevent or detect all errors.  We intend to continue to evaluate and strengthen our ICFR systems. These efforts require significant time and resources.  If we are unable to maintain adequate ICFR systems, we may encounter difficulties in the audit or review of our consolidated financial statements by our independent registered public accounting firm which in turn may have a material adverse effect on our ability to prepare consolidated financial statements in accordance with U. S. GAAP and to comply with our SEC reporting obligations.

Attestation Report of the Registered Public Accounting Firm.

This annual report does not include an attestation report of our independent registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting. Management's report was not subject to attestation by our independent registered public accounting firm pursuant to temporary rules of the SEC that permit us to provide only management's report in this annual report.

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting.

Except as previously disclosed, we have made no change in our internal control over financial reporting that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Compliance with Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934

Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, requires the Company’s directors and executive officers, and persons who own more than 10% of a registered class of the Company’s outstanding equity securities to file with the Securities and Exchange Commission initial reports of ownership and reports of changes in ownership of common stock and other equity securities of the Company. Officers, directors and greater than 10% shareholders are required by SEC regulations to furnish the Company with copies of all Section 16(a) forms they file.

To the Company’s knowledge, based solely on its review of the copies of such reports furnished to the Company during the fiscal year ended February 28, 2010, all Section 16(a) filing requirements applicable to its officers, directors and greater than 10% beneficial owners were complied with.

Code of Ethics for Chief Executive Officer and Senior Financial Officers

On May 20, 2006, the Board of Directors of the Company adopted the Code of Ethics for the Chief Executive Officer and Senior Financial Officers.  The Code is designed to deter wrong-doing and promote honest and ethical behavior, full, fair, timely, accurate and understandable disclosure and compliance with applicable governmental laws, rules and regulations.  It is also designed to encourage prompt internal reporting of violations of the Code to an appropriate person and provides for accountability for adherence to the Code.  We will provide to any person without charge, upon written request to our principal executive offices, a copy of our Code.  Any waiver of the Code pertaining to one of our executive officers will be disclosed in a report on Form 8-K filed with the SEC.

Indemnification of Directors and Officers.
 
The Company's Bylaws provide that it will indemnify its officers and directors to the full extent permitted by Nevada state law. The Company's bylaws likewise provide that it will indemnify and hold harmless its officers and directors for any liability including reasonable costs of defense arising out of any act or omission taken on behalf of the Company, to the full extent allowed by Nevada law, if the officer or director acted in good faith and in a manner the officer or director reasonably believed to be in, or not opposed to, the best interests of the corporation.
 
In so far as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933 may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, the registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.

We do not have a separately designated audit, compensation or nominating committee of our Board of Directors.  Although we are not a “listed company” under SEC rules and are therefore not required to have separate committees comprised of independent directors, we have, however, determined that James Place is “independent” as that term is defined in Section 4200 of the Marketplace Rules required by the NASDAQ Stock Market.
