EXPLANATORY NOTE

This Amendment No. 1 on Form 10-K/A ("Amendment No. 1") amends the Annual Report on Form 10-K of Janel Corporation (the "Company") for the fiscal years ended September 30, 2017 and September 30, 2016, as originally filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") on December 27, 2017 (the "Original Filing").

As previously disclosed in Form 8-K filed on February 14, 2018 and described in more detail below and in Note 1 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements, we determined that we had improperly accounted for certain items. As a result of the aggregate effect of these errors and other individually immaterial errors, the audit committee of our board of directors determined that our financial statements for the fiscal years ended September 30, 2017 and September 30, 2016 and the fiscal quarters ended March 31, 2016, June 30, 2016, December 31, 2016, March 31, 2017, and June 30, 2017 could no longer be relied upon and should be restated. To correct the errors described above and in Note 1 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements, we are amending the Original Filing to provide restated consolidated financial statements as of and for the fiscal years ended September 30, 2017 and September 30, 2016 and to amend related disclosures. This Amendment No. 1 also includes the impact of such adjustments on the unaudited quarterly financial information for each of the fiscal quarters ended March 31, 2016, June 30, 2016, December 31, 2016, March 31, 2017, and June 30, 2017 in Note 16 —Quarterly Financial Data (Unaudited) of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements included herein.

As previously disclosed, we identified an error in accounting for goodwill and deferred tax liabilities relating to the Company's March 21, 2016 acquisition of Indco, Inc., a majority-owned subsidiary of the Company, and other income tax matters, including the income tax provision and related tax assets and liabilities in the consolidated statements of operations for the years ended September 30, 2017 and September 30, 2016.

The Company also identified errors related to the accounting of non-controlling interest related to the Indco, Inc., acquisition as well as the accounting for the Company's outstanding redeemable Series C Cumulative Preferred Stock. In addition, the Company found errors related to stock options, expenses related to discontinued operations and the improper netting of accounts receivable and payables.

Management has determined that there was a deficiency in the Company's internal control over financial reporting that constitutes a material weakness, as defined by SEC regulations, at September 30, 2017. For a description of the additional material weakness in the Company's internal control over financial reporting identified by management as a result of the identification of the accounting errors and management's plan to remediate this material weakness, see Part II — Item 9A (Controls and Procedures).

For ease of reference, this Amendment No. 1 amends and restates the Original Filing in its entirety. Revisions to the Original Filing have been made to the following sections:

Part I - Item 1A – Risk Factors

Part I - Item 6 – Selected Financial Data

Part II - Item 7 - Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

Part II - Item 8 - Financial Statements and Supplementary Data

Part II - Item 9A - Controls and Procedures

Part IV - Exhibits

In addition, as required by Rule 12b-15, the Company's principal executive officer, who also serves as the Company's principal financial officer, is providing new currently dated certifications. Accordingly, the Company hereby amends Part IV - Item 15 in the Original Filing to reflect the filing of the new certifications, as well as various exhibits related to XBRL.

Except as described above, this Amendment No. 1 does not amend, update or change any other items or disclosures in the Original Filing and does not purport to reflect any information or events subsequent to the filing thereof. As such, this Amendment No. 1 speaks only as of the date the Original Filing was filed, and the Company has not undertaken herein to amend, supplement or update any information contained in the Original Filing to give effect to any subsequent events and any forward-looking statements represent management's views as of the date of the Original Filing and should not be assumed to be accurate as of any date thereafter. Accordingly, this Amendment No.1 should be read in conjunction with the Company's filings made with the SEC subsequent to the filing of the Original Filing, including any amendment to those filings.

You should not place undue reliance on any of our forward-looking statements which speak only as of the date they are made. We undertake no obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.

PART I

ITEM 1.

BUSINESS

Janel Corporation ("Janel," "Company," or "Registrant") is a holding company with subsidiaries in two business segments: Global Logistics Services and Manufacturing. The Company's Global Logistics Services segment comprises several wholly-owned subsidiaries, collectively known as "Janel Group." The Company's Manufacturing segment comprises its majority-owned Indco subsidiary, which manufactures and distributes industrial mixing equipment. Janel is a successor to a business originally formed in 1975. Janel is domiciled in the state of Nevada. Its corporate headquarters is in Lynbrook, New York. Its website is located at http://www.janelcorp.com.

A management group at the holding company level (the "corporate group") focuses on significant capital allocation decisions, corporate governance and supporting Janel's subsidiaries where appropriate. Janel expects to grow through its subsidiaries' organic growth and by completing acquisitions. We either will acquire businesses within our existing segments, or we will expand our portfolio into new segments. Our acquisition strategy focuses on reasonably-priced companies with strong and capable management teams, attractive existing business economics and stable and predictable earnings power.

In September 2014, the Company purchased the equity of Alpha International, LP and PCL Transport, LLC ("Alpha/PCL"), both global logistics services companies. Approximately one year later, it purchased the equity of Liberty International, Inc. ("Liberty"). On April 1, 2017, the Company acquired the equity of W.J. Byrnes & Co., Inc. ("Byrnes"). These businesses, along with the legacy Janel Group, comprise the Company's Global Logistics Services segment, which focuses on international transportation and customs clearance. In March 2016, the Company purchased Indco, Inc. ("Indco"), a manufacturer and distributor of mixing equipment, which comprises the Company's Manufacturing segment.

Janel and its consolidated subsidiaries employ 117 full-time and four part-time people in the United States. None of these employees is covered by a collective bargaining agreement. Janel and its subsidiaries have experienced no work stoppages and consider relations with their employees to be good.

Global Logistics Services

The Company's Global Logistics Services segment comprises several wholly-owned subsidiaries, collectively known as "Janel Group." We acquired Alpha/PCL in September 2014, Liberty in August 2015 and Byrnes in April 2017 in order to add markets and specialties to Janel Group's logistics offerings.

Janel Group operates out of eleven leased, full-service locations in the United States: Lynbrook (New York), New York (headquarters, operations and accounting); Boston, Massachusetts; Pawtucket (Providence), Rhode Island; Edison (Newark), New Jersey; Essington (Philadelphia), Pennsylvania; Forest Park (Atlanta), Georgia; Elk Grove Village (Chicago), Illinois; Tucson, Arizona; Torrance (Los Angeles), California; Daly City (San Francisco), California; and Portland, Oregon. Janel Group maintains a network of independent agent relationships in many trading countries, giving it the ability to provide a global service to its clients.

Janel Group helps its clients move and manage freight efficiently to reduce inventories and to increase supply chain speed and reliability. Key services include customs entry filing, arrangement of freight forwarding by air, ocean and ground, warehousing, cargo insurance procurement, logistics planning, product repackaging and online shipment tracking. During the fiscal year ended September 30, 2017, Janel Group handled approximately 48,000 individual import and export shipments originating or terminating in the United States, Europe and Asia. Approximately 46% of the revenue from this activity relates to ocean import/export, 19% to air import/export, 11% to customs brokerage and the remainder to ground and other freight forwarding services. Janel Group had one customer that accounted for approximately 12% of Janel Corporation's total revenues in fiscal 2017.

Janel Group earns flat fees for certain services, such as customs entry filing. For brokered services, Janel Group earns the difference between the rate charged by a service provider and the rate Janel Group charges the customer for the provider's service. Janel Group's freight consolidation activities, in addition to on-going volume-based relationships with providers, allows Janel Group to command preferred service rates that can be passed on profitably to the customer.

The logistics industry is highly fragmented, with low barriers to entry and intense competition. Janel Group competes against providers ranging in size from "mom-and-pop" businesses to multi-national firms with hundreds of offices worldwide. Many Janel Group customers utilize more than one logistics provider.

The global forwarding industry requires dealings in currencies other than the U.S. Dollar. As a result, Janel Group is exposed to the inherent risks of international currency markets and governmental interference. Some countries in which Janel Group maintains agent relationships have currency control regulations that influence Janel Group's ability to hedge foreign currency exposure. Janel Group tries to compensate for these exposures by accelerating international currency settlements among those agents.

Historically, Janel Group's quarterly operating results have been subject to seasonal trends. The fiscal third and fourth quarters have traditionally been the strongest and the fiscal second quarter has traditionally been the weakest. This pattern has been the result of, or influenced by, numerous factors including climate, national holidays, consumer demand, economic conditions and other similar and subtle forces. This historical seasonality has also been influenced by the growth and diversification of Janel Group's international network and service offerings.

A significant portion of Janel Group's revenues are derived from customers in industries with shipping patterns tied to consumer demand and/or just-in-time production schedules. Many of Janel Group's customers may ship a significant portion of their goods at or near the end of a quarter. Therefore, the timing of Janel Group revenues is, to a large degree, affected by factors beyond its control, such as shifting consumer demand for retail goods and manufacturing production delays. Janel Group cannot accurately forecast many of these factors, nor can it estimate the relative impact of any given factor. Therefore, there is no assurance that historical patterns will continue in the future.

Interstate and international transportation of freight is highly regulated. Failure to comply with applicable state and federal regulations, or to maintain required permits or licenses, can result in substantial fines or revocation of operating permits or authorities imposed on both transportation intermediaries and their shipper customers. We cannot give assurance as to the degree or cost of future regulations on our business. Some of the regulations affecting our current and prospective operations are described below.

Each Janel Group company that engages in customs brokerage is licensed as a customs broker by U.S. Customs and Border Protection ("CBP"). All U.S. customs brokers are required to maintain prescribed records and are subject to periodic audits by CBP.

Janel Group's activities in the air transportation industry in the United States are subject to regulation by the Department of Transportation as an indirect air carrier. Janel Group's overseas agents are licensed as freight forwarders in their respective countries of operation, and certain of Janel Group's offices are licensed as freight forwarders by the International Air Transport Association ("IATA"). IATA is a voluntary association of airlines which prescribes certain operating procedures for freight forwarders acting as agents of its members. Most of Janel Group's freight forwarding business is conducted with airlines that are IATA members.

Each Janel Group company that engages in ocean freight is registered as an Ocean Transportation Intermediary and licensed as a non-vessel operating common carrier ("NVOCC") by the Federal Maritime Commission ("FMC"). The FMC has established certain qualifications for shipping agents, including certain surety bonding requirements.

Janel Group is subject to U.S. federal, state and local provisions regulating the discharge of materials into the environment or otherwise for the protection of the environment. Similar laws apply in many foreign jurisdictions in which Janel Group operates. Although current operations have not been significantly affected by compliance with these environmental laws, the Company cannot predict what impact future environmental regulations may have on Janel Group. Janel Group does not anticipate making any material capital expenditures for environmental control purposes during the remainder of the current or succeeding fiscal years.

Manufacturing

The Company's Manufacturing segment comprises its majority-owned Indco subsidiary, which manufactures and distributes industrial mixing equipment. Indco's headquarters and manufacturing operations are located in a single leased facility in New Albany, Indiana.

Indco provides solutions for the mixing needs of customers operating in diverse industries, including chemicals, inks, paints, construction, plastics, adhesives, cosmetics, food and pharmaceuticals. Solutions include over 2,500 standard product configurations, both manufactured and distributed, available for order from Indco's website and its print catalog, mailed quarterly. In addition, Indco manufactures custom-designed mixing solutions that Indco helps specify, design, machine, assemble and distribute. During the fiscal year ended September 30, 2017, Indco made approximately 5,900 individual shipments to customers. In fiscal 2017, approximately 82% of Indco's revenue came from manufacturing activity. The remainder came from distribution activity. Indco's revenue generally is level throughout the year with little seasonality.

Indco relies on a variety of providers of raw materials, mechanical components and other services in order to manufacture its products. These providers include national and multi-national suppliers for common industrial components such as motors, gear drives, motor controls and many other standard hardware products. Additionally, regional and local suppliers provide Indco-specific parts such as castings and fabricated metal components. Raw materials, primarily steel bar, plate and shaft are sourced from domestic steel mills through local distributors. Alternative or substantially similar options are available from suppliers other than those Indco currently employs. Custom cast or fabricated parts are at greater risk for supply interruption. However, alternative equivalent suppliers are available.

The industrial mixer manufacturing industry is highly fragmented with low barriers to entry. Indco competes with companies of all sizes based on a combination of pricing, lead-times, service, quality and ability to reach customers through internet presence and catalog circulation.

Government regulation directly governing Indco's industrial mixer product line is minimal. Changing energy efficiency standards, however, as mandated by the Department of Energy, can, over time, affect electric motor manufacturers whose products are used by Indco. Historically, these changes have resulted in only minor changes to the product line.

Indco is subject to U.S. federal, state and local provisions regulating the discharge of materials into the environment or otherwise for the protection of the environment. Although current operations have not been significantly affected by compliance with these environmental laws, the Company cannot predict what impact future environmental regulations may have on Indco. Indco does not anticipate making any material capital expenditures for environmental control purposes during the remainder of the current or succeeding fiscal years. Indco's general cost of compliance with environmental regulations centers around the removal and disposal of process fluids from its metal parts machining operations and the disposal of solid wastes. In fiscal 2017, the approximate cost of pumping, containing and removing waste oils and cutting fluids was $4,000. The annual expense for general solid waste removal was approximately $2,000. Recycling programs are in place for relevant materials including stainless steel, carbon steel and corrugated cardboard.

ITEM 1A.

RISK FACTORS

An investment in Janel's common stock is subject to risks inherent to the Company's business. The material risks and uncertainties that management believes affect Janel are described below. Additional risks and uncertainties that management is not aware of or focused on or that management currently deems immaterial may also impair the Company's business operations.

Risk Factors Related To Janel's Growth Strategy

Janel's strategy of expanding its business through acquisitions of other businesses presents special risks.

Janel expects to grow its businesses in part by completing acquisitions. Janel either will acquire businesses within its existing segments, or it will expand its portfolio into new segments. In either case, there can be no assurance:

that Janel's financial condition will be sufficient to support the funding needs of an expansion program;

that Janel can successfully identify suitable investment opportunities;

that acquisitions will be successfully consummated or will enhance profitability; or

that any expansion opportunities will be available upon reasonable terms.

There may be a limited number of operating companies available for acquisition that Janel deems to be desirable targets. Consequently, there may be a high level of competition among companies seeking to acquire these targets. Janel may be in competition with entities whose financial resources, technical expertise and managerial capabilities are significantly greater than Janel's. Therefore, Janel may be at a competitive disadvantage in negotiating and executing possible acquisitions. Even if Janel is successful in a competitive bidding process for an acquisition, this competition may affect the terms of completed transactions and, as a result, Janel may pay more or receive less favorable terms than it expected for potential acquisitions.

In addition, even if Janel is able to successfully compete with these entities, it expects future acquisitions to encounter risks similar to those that past acquisitions have encountered, such as:

difficulty in assimilating/integrating the operations and personnel of the acquired businesses;

potential disruption of Janel's or the target's ongoing business;

inability to realize the projected operational and financial benefits from the acquisition or to maximize financial and strategic benefits through the incorporation of acquired personnel and clients;

difficulty maintaining uniform standards, controls, procedures and policies;

impairment of relationships with employees and clients resulting from integration of the newly acquired company;

strain on managerial and operational resources as management tries to oversee larger operations;

significantly increased need for working capital to operate the acquired companies;

exposure to unforeseen liabilities of acquired companies; and

need to incur additional indebtedness, issue stock (which may have rights superior to the rights of Janel's stockholders and which may have a dilutive effect on Janel's stockholders), or use cash in order to complete the acquisition.

Furthermore, management's attention may be diverted by acquisition, investment, transition or integration activities. Janel might need to dedicate additional management and other resources to newly acquired businesses. Additionally, should Janel acquire a new line of business in which it has no operating history, the success of such new business cannot be assured.

Janel expects that any future acquisitions could provide for consideration to be paid in cash, stock or a combination of cash and stock. There can be no assurance that any of these acquisitions will be completed. If an acquired entity is not efficiently or completely integrated, then Janel's business, financial condition and operating results could be materially adversely affected.

Janel might fail to realize the expected benefits or strategic objectives of any acquisition it undertakes, or it may spend resources researching acquisitions that are not consummated.

Janel might not achieve its expected return on investment or may lose money. Janel may be adversely impacted by liabilities that it assumes from an acquired business, including from that business's known and unknown obligations, intellectual property or other assets, terminated employees, current or former clients or other third parties. In addition, Janel may fail to identify or adequately assess the magnitude of certain liabilities, shortcomings or other circumstances prior to acquiring, investing in or partnering with a company, including potential exposure to regulatory sanctions or liabilities resulting from an acquired business's previous activities, internal controls and security environment. If any of these circumstances occurs, they could result in unexpected legal or regulatory exposure, unfavorable accounting treatment, unexpected increases in taxes or other adverse effects on Janel's business.

We have identified material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting which could, if not remediated, result in material misstatements in our financial statements.

As disclosed in Part II--Item 9A of this Amendment No. 1, we identified material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting. A material weakness is defined as a deficiency, or combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting, such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of our annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis. As a result of these material weaknesses, our management concluded that our internal control over financial reporting was not effective as of September 30, 2017, based on criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission in Internal Control—An Integrated Framework. We are actively engaged in developing a remediation plan designed to address these material weaknesses. If our remediation measures are insufficient to address these material weaknesses, or if additional material weaknesses in our internal controls are discovered or occur in the future, our consolidated financial statements may contain material misstatements and we could be required to restate our financial results. For more information see Part II – Item 9 of this Amendment No. 1. In addition, if we identify additional deficiencies in our internal control over financial reporting, the disclosure of that fact, even if quickly remedied, could reduce the market's confidence in our financial statements and harm our share price. Although we believe that we are taking appropriate action to remediate the control deficiency, if we are unable to effectively remediate this material weakness or are otherwise unable to maintain adequate internal control over financial reporting in the future, we may not be able to prepare reliable financial statements and comply with our reporting obligations on a timely basis, which could materially adversely affect our business and the market price of our common shares through loss of public and investor confidence, as well as subject us to legal and regulatory action.

Litigation, indemnification claims and other unforeseen claims and liabilities may arise from the acquisition or operation of acquired businesses.

Janel may face litigation or other claims as a result of certain terms and conditions of the acquisition agreement, such as earnout payments or closing net asset adjustments. Alternatively, shareholder litigation may arise as a result of proposed acquisitions. If Janel is unable to complete the number and kind of acquisitions for which it plans, or if Janel is inefficient or unsuccessful at integrating any acquired businesses into its operations, Janel may not be able to achieve its planned rates of growth or improve its market share, profitability or competitive position.

Risk Factors Related To Janel's Business And Industries

Economic and other conditions in the markets in which Janel operates can affect demand for services and results of operations.

Janel's future operating results are dependent upon the economic environments of the markets in which it operates. Demand for services could be adversely affected by economic conditions in the industries of Janel's customers. Janel expects the demand for its services (and, consequently, results of operations) to continue to be sensitive to domestic and, increasingly, global economic conditions and other factors beyond Janel's control.

Janel may not have sufficient working capital to continue operations.

Janel's cash needs are currently met by commercial bank credit facilities, cash on hand and cash generated from current operations. Actual working capital needs for the short and long terms will depend upon numerous factors, including operating results, the availability of a revolving line of credit, competition, and the cost associated with growing, either internally or through acquisition, none of which can be predicted with certainty. If results of operations and availability under Janel's bank lines of credit are insufficient to meet cash needs, it will be required to obtain additional investment capital or debt funding to continue operations.

Janel's businesses are dependent upon key employees.

Janel believes that the success of its subsidiaries is highly dependent on the continuing efforts of certain key employees, some of whom are subject to employment agreements. The loss of the services of any of these key personnel could have a material adverse effect on Janel's business.

Janel may face competition from parties who sell their businesses to Janel and from professionals who cease working for Janel.

Janel cannot assure that one or more of the former owners of an acquired business who do not join Janel or persons who leave Janel's employment will not compete with Janel or solicit its employees or clients in the future. Even if ultimately resolved in Janel's favor, any litigation associated with the non-competition or non-solicitation agreements could be time consuming, costly and distract management's focus from Janel's business.

Moreover, states and foreign jurisdictions may interpret restrictions on competition narrowly and in favor of employees. Therefore, certain restrictions on competition or solicitation may be unenforceable. In addition, Janel may decide not to pursue legal remedies if it determines that the costs or other factors outweigh the benefits of any possible legal recourse or if the likelihood of success does not justify the costs of pursuing a legal remedy. Such persons, because they have worked for Janel or an acquired business, may be able to compete more effectively with Janel, or be more successful in soliciting its employees and clients, than unaffiliated third-parties.

Terrorist attacks and other acts of violence or war may affect any market on which the Company's shares trade, the markets in which the Company's subsidiaries operate, and the Company's business operations and profitability.

Terrorist acts or acts of war or armed conflict could negatively affect Janel's business operations. Any of these acts could result in increased volatility in, or damage to, the United States and worldwide financial markets and economy, and, in particular, could lead to increased regulatory requirements with respect to the security and safety of freight shipments and transportation. They could also result in a continuation of the current economic uncertainty in the United States and abroad. Acts of terrorism or armed conflict, and the uncertainty caused by such conflicts, could cause a reduction in demand for Janel's businesses. In particular, this would have a corresponding negative effect on Janel's global logistics services business. Also, terrorist activities like those experienced on September 11, 2001 could result in another halt of trading of securities, which could also have an adverse effect on the trading price of Janel's shares and overall market capitalization.

Security breaches or cybersecurity attacks could adversely affect Janel's ability to operate, could result in personal information being misappropriated, and may cause Janel to be held liable or suffer harm to its reputation.

External and internal risks, such as malware, insecure coding, "Acts of God," data leakage and human error pose a direct threat to Janel's information technology systems and operations. Janel may be subject to cybersecurity attacks and other intentional hacking. Any failure to identify and address such defects or errors or prevent a cyber-attack could result in service interruptions, operational difficulties, loss of revenues or market share, liability to customers or others, diversion of resources, injury to Janel's reputation and increased service and maintenance costs. Addressing such issues could prove to be impossible or very costly and responding to resulting claims or liability could similarly involve substantial cost.

Risk Factors Related To Janel's Global Logistics Services Business (Janel Group)

Janel Group faces aggressive competition from freight carriers with greater financial resources and with companies that operate in areas that Janel Group plans on expanding to in the future.

Janel Group faces intense competition within the freight industry on a local, regional, national and global basis. Many of Janel Group's competitors have much larger facilities and far greater financial resources. In the freight forwarding industry, Janel Group competes with a large and diverse group of freight forwarding concerns, commercial air and ocean carriers and a large number of locally established companies in geographic areas where Janel Group does business or intends to do business in the future. The loss of customers, agents or employees to competitors could adversely impact Janel Group's ability to maintain profitability.

In addition, the transport of freight, both domestically and internationally, is highly competitive and price sensitive and new competitors emerge annually. Changes in the volume of freight transported, shippers' preferences as to the timing of deliveries as a means to control shipping costs, economic and political conditions, both in the United States and abroad, work stoppages, United States and foreign laws relating to tariffs, trade restrictions, foreign investments and taxation may all have significant impact on Janel Group's overall business, growth and profitability.

Janel Group's ability to serve its customers depends on the availability of cargo space from third parties.

Janel Group's ability to serve its customers depends on the availability of air and sea cargo space, including space on passenger and cargo airlines and ocean carriers that service the transportation lanes that Janel Group uses. Shortages of cargo space are most likely to develop around holidays and in especially heavy transportation lanes. In addition, available cargo space could be reduced as a result of decreases in the number of passenger airlines or ocean carriers serving particular shipment lanes at particular times. This could occur as a result of economic conditions, transportation strikes, regulatory changes and other factors beyond Janel Group's control. Janel Group's future operating results could be adversely affected by significant shortages of suitable cargo space and associated increases in rates charged by passenger airlines or ocean carriers for cargo space. In addition, any determination that Janel Group's third-party carriers have violated laws and regulations could seriously damage its reputation and brands, resulting in diminished revenue and profit and increased operating costs.

Recessions and other economic factors that reduce freight volumes could have a material adverse impact on Janel Group's business.

The transportation industry historically has experienced cyclical fluctuations in financial results due to economic recession, downturns in business cycles of customers like those that Janel Group services, interest rate fluctuations and other economic factors beyond Janel Group's control. Deterioration in the economic environment subjects Janel Group's business to various risks that may have a material impact on its operating results and cause it, and therefore Janel, to not reach its long-term growth goals, and which may include the following:

a reduction in overall freight volumes in the marketplace, reducing Janel Group's opportunities for growth;

economic difficulties encountered by some of Janel Group's customers, who may, therefore, not be able to pay Janel Group in a timely manner or at all, or may go out of business;

economic difficulties encountered by a significant number of Janel Group's transportation providers, who may go out of business and, therefore, leave Janel Group unable to secure sufficient equipment or other transportation services to meet commitments to its customers; and

inability of Janel group to appropriately adjust its expenses to changing market demands.

In addition, if a downturn in Janel Group's customers' business cycles causes a reduction in the volume of freight shipped by those customers, its, and therefore Janel's, operating results could be adversely affected.

Other events affecting the volume of international trade and international operations could adversely affect Janel Group's international operations.

In addition to economic conditions, Janel Group's international operations are directly related to, and dependent on, the volume of international trade, particularly trade between the United States and foreign nations. This trade, as well as Janel Group's international operations, is influenced by many factors, including:

economic and political conditions in the United States and abroad;

major work stoppages;

exchange controls, currency conversion and fluctuations;

war, other armed conflicts and terrorism; and

United States and foreign laws relating to tariffs, trade restrictions, foreign investment and taxation.

The foregoing and other events beyond Janel Group's control, such as a failure of various nations to reach or adopt international trade agreements or an increase in bilateral or multilateral trade restrictions, could have a material adverse effect on Janel Group's business.

Demand for Janel Group's business may have an adverse impact on its costs of doing business and staffing levels.

In order to maintain high variability in Janel Group's business model, it is necessary to adjust staffing levels to changing market demands. In periods of rapid change, it is more difficult to match Janel Group's staffing levels to its business needs. In addition, Janel Group has other primarily variable expenses that are fixed for a period of time, and it may not be able to adequately adjust them in a period of rapid change in market demand.

Janel Group faces competition in the freight forwarding, freight brokerage, logistics and supply chain management industry.

The freight forwarding, freight brokerage, logistics and supply chain management industry is intensely competitive and is expected to remain so for the foreseeable future. Janel Group faces competition from a number of companies, including many that have significantly greater financial, technical and marketing resources. Customers increasingly are turning to competitive bidding processes, in which they solicit bids from a number of competitors, including competitors that are larger than Janel Group. Increased competition may lead to revenue reductions, reduced profit margins, or a loss of market share, any one of which could harm Janel Group's business. There are many factors that could impair Janel Group's profitability, including the following:

competition with other transportation services companies, some of which have a broader coverage network, a wider range of services, more fully developed information technology systems and greater capital resources than those of Janel Group;

reduction by Janel Group's competitors of their rates to gain business, especially during times of declining growth rates in the economy, which reductions may limit Janel Group's ability to maintain or increase rates, maintain its operating margins or maintain significant growth in its business;

shifts in the business of shippers to asset-based trucking companies that also offer brokerage services in order to secure access to those companies' trucking capacity, particularly in times of tight industry-wide capacity;

solicitation by shippers of bids from multiple transportation providers for their shipping needs and the resulting depression of freight rates or loss of business to competitors; and

by Janel Group's competitors of cooperative relationships to increase their ability to address shipper needs.

Janel Group's industry is consolidating and if it cannot gain sufficient market presence, Janel Group may not be able to compete successfully against larger companies in its industry.

There currently is a trend within Janel Group's industry towards consolidation of the niche players into larger companies that are attempting to increase global operations through the acquisition of regional and local freight forwarders, brokers, and other freight logistics providers. If Janel Group cannot gain sufficient market presence or otherwise establish a successful strategy in its industry, it may not be able to compete successfully against larger companies in its industry.

Failure to comply with governmental permit and licensing requirements or statutory and regulatory requirements could result in civil and criminal sanctions, fines or revocation of Janel Group's operating authorities, and changes in these requirements could adversely affect Janel Group's business.

Janel Group's operations are subject to various state, local, federal and foreign statutes and regulations prohibiting various activities that in many instances require permits and licenses. Failure to maintain compliance with applicable law and regulations, required permits or licenses, or to comply with applicable regulations, could result in substantial fines or revocation of Janel Group's operating authorities. Moreover, government deregulation efforts, "modernization" of the regulations governing customs clearance and changes in the international trade and tariff environment could require material expenditures or otherwise adversely affect Janel Group's business specifically.

Janel Group's business is subject to seasonal trends.

Historically, Janel Group's operating results have been subject to seasonal trends when measured on a quarterly basis. Its second fiscal quarter has traditionally been the weakest and the third and fourth fiscal quarters have traditionally been the strongest. As a result, its quarterly operating results are likely to continue to fluctuate. This trend is dependent on numerous factors, including the markets in which Janel Group operates, holiday seasons, consumer demand, climate, economic conditions and numerous other factors. This historical seasonality has also been influenced by the growth and diversification of Janel Group's international network and service offerings. A substantial portion of its revenue is derived from customers in industries whose shipping patterns are tied closely to consumer demand which can sometimes be difficult to predict or are based on just-in-time production schedules. Therefore, Janel Group's revenue is, to a large degree, affected by factors that are outside of its control. There can be no assurance that Janel Group's historic operating patterns will continue in future periods as it cannot influence or forecast many of these factors.

Risk Factors Related To Janel's Manufacturing Business (Indco)

Indco faces aggressive competition from competitors with greater financial resources.

Indco is a producer of industrial mixers and mixing equipment for a variety of industries. The industrial mixer manufacturing industry is highly fragmented with low barriers to entry. This market is addressed by companies ranging in size from large, publicly held concerns with resources greater than those of Indco to small privately-owned entities. New competitors emerge annually, particularly in the online marketing space.

Because most of Indco's contracts are individual purchase orders and not long-term agreements, there is no guarantee that it will be able to generate a similar amount of revenue in the future.

Indco must bid or negotiate each of its contracts separately, and when it completes a contract, there is generally no continuing source of revenue under that contract. As a result, Indco cannot assure that it will have a continuing stream of revenue from any contract. Indco's failure to generate new business on an ongoing basis would materially impair its ability to operate profitably.

Any decrease in the availability, or increase in the cost, of raw materials could materially affect Indco's revenue and earnings.

The availability of certain critical raw materials is subject to factors that are not within Indco's control. In some cases, these critical raw materials are purchased from suppliers operating in countries that may be subject to unstable political and economic conditions. At any given time, Indco may be unable to obtain an adequate supply of these critical raw materials on a timely basis, at prices and other terms acceptable to it, or at all. If suppliers increase the price of critical raw materials or are unwilling or unable to meet Indco's demand, it may not have alternative sources of supply. In addition, to the extent that Indco has existing contracts or has quoted prices to customers and accepted customer orders for products prior to purchasing the necessary raw materials, it may be unable to raise the price of products to cover all or part of the increased cost of the raw materials. If Indco is unable to obtain adequate and timely deliveries of required raw materials, it may be unable to timely manufacture sufficient quantities of products. This could cause Indco to lose sales, incur additional costs, delay new product introductions or suffer harm to Indco's reputation.

In addition, costs of certain critical raw materials have been volatile due to factors beyond Indco's control. Raw material costs are included in Indco's contracts with customers, but in some cases Indco is exposed to changes in raw material costs from the time purchase orders are placed to when it purchases the raw materials for production. Changes in business conditions could adversely affect Indco's ability to recover rapid increases in raw material costs and may adversely affect Indco's, and therefore Janel's, results of operations.

Failure to obtain and retain skilled technical personnel could adversely affect Indco's operations.

Indco's production facilities require skilled personnel to operate and provide technical services and support for its business. Competition for the personnel required for Indco's business intensifies as activity increases. In periods of high utilization, it may become more difficult to find and retain qualified individuals. This could increase Indco's costs or have other adverse effects on its operations.

If Indco's customers successfully assert product liability claims against it due to defects in Indco's products, its operating results may suffer and its reputation may be harmed.

Indco faces an inherent risk of exposure to claims in the event that the failure, use or misuse of its products results, or is alleged to result, in bodily injury, property damage or economic loss. Indco believes that it meets or exceeds existing professional specification standards recognized or required in the industries in which it operates. Indco has been subject to claims in the past, none of which have had a material adverse effect on its or Janel's financial condition or results of operations, and it may be subject to claims in the future. A successful product liability claim or series of claims against Indco, or a significant warranty claim or series of claims against it could materially decrease its liquidity and impair its, and therefore Janel's financial condition.

The extensive environmental, health and safety regulatory regimes applicable to Indco's operations create potential exposure to significant liabilities.

The nature of Indco's manufacturing business subjects its operations to numerous and varied federal, state, local and international laws and regulations relating to pollution, protection of public health and the environment, natural resource damages and occupational safety and health. Failure to comply with these laws and regulations, or with the permits required for Indco's operations, could result in fines or civil or criminal sanctions, third party claims for property damage or personal injury, and investigation and cleanup costs. Potentially significant expenditures could be required in order to comply with new environmental laws or requirements that may be adopted or imposed in the future.

Indco has used, and currently uses, certain substances that are considered hazardous, extremely hazardous or toxic under worker safety and health laws and regulations. Although Indco implements controls and procedures designed to reduce continuing risk of adverse impacts and environmental, health, and safety issues, Indco could incur substantial cleanup costs, fines and civil or criminal sanctions, and third-party property damage or personal injury claims as a result of violations, non-compliance or liabilities under these regulatory regimes. As a manufacturing business, Indco also must comply with federal and state environmental laws and regulations which relate to the manner in which Indco stores and disposes of materials and the reports that Indco is required to file. Indco cannot ensure that it will not incur additional costs to maintain compliance with environmental laws and regulations or that it will not incur significant penalties for failure to be in compliance.

Indco relies on a single location to manufacture its products.

Indco's business operates out of a single location in New Albany, Indiana. Indco employs lean manufacturing techniques and therefore carries little inventory. It is possible that Indco could experience prolonged periods of reduced production due to unforeseen catastrophic events occurring in or around its facility in Indiana. As a result, Indco may be unable to shift manufacturing capabilities to alternate locations, accept materials from suppliers, meet customer shipment needs or address other severe consequences that may be encountered, and Indco may suffer damage to its reputation. Indco's, and therefore Janel's, financial condition and results of operations could be materially adversely affected were such events to occur.

Risk Factors Related To Ownership of Janel's Common Stock

Janel's officers and directors and one of its stockholders have a controlling influence over Janel.

Janel's officers and directors control the vote of approximately 64.7% of the outstanding shares of Janel's common stock, including the options to purchase shares that have been granted to key employees. As a result, Janel's officers and directors may control the election of Janel's directors and therefore have the ability to control the affairs of Janel. Furthermore, one particular investor in the Company has the right to appoint 50% of the members of Janel's board of directors.

As a result, these officers, directors and stockholders have controlling influence over, among other things, the ability to amend Janel's certificate of incorporation and bylaws or effect or preclude fundamental corporate transactions involving Janel, including the acceptance or rejection of any proposals relating to a merger of Janel or an acquisition of Janel by another entity. The interests of these officers, directors and stockholders may conflict with those of other stockholders. This concentration of ownership may also delay, defer or prevent a change in control of Janel, and some transactions may be more difficult or impossible without the support of these parties.

The liability of Janel's directors is limited.

Janel's certificate of incorporation limits the liability of directors to the maximum extent permitted by Nevada law.

It is unlikely that Janel will issue dividends on its common stock in the foreseeable future.

Janel has never declared nor paid cash dividends on its common stock, and it does not intend to pay dividends in the foreseeable future. The payment of dividends in the future will be at the discretion of Janel's board of directors.

Janel's stock price is subject to volatility.

Janel's common stock trades on the OTC Bulletin Board under the symbol "JANL." The market price of Janel's common stock has been subject to significant fluctuations. Such fluctuations, as well as economic conditions generally, may adversely affect the market price of Janel's common stock.

Janel has no assurance of a continued public trading market.

Janel's common stock is quoted in the over-the-counter market on the OTC Bulletin Board and is subject to the low-priced security or so-called "penny stock" rules that impose additional sales practice requirements on broker-dealers who sell such securities. For any transaction involving a penny stock, the rules require, among other things, the delivery, prior to the transaction, of a disclosure schedule required by the SEC relating to the penny stock market. The broker-dealer also must disclose the commissions payable to both the broker-dealer and the registered representative and current quotations for the securities. Finally, monthly statements must be sent disclosing recent price information for the penny stocks held in the customer's account. As a result, characterization as a "penny stock" can adversely affect the market liquidity for the securities.

As a public company, Janel may incur significant costs to comply with the laws and regulations affecting public companies which could harm its business and results of operations.

As a public company, Janel is subject to the reporting requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"), and the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, as amended (the "Sarbanes-Oxley Act"), and other applicable securities rules and regulations. These rules and regulations have increased and will continue to increase Janel's legal, accounting and financial compliance costs and have made, and will continue to make, some activities more time-consuming and costly. For example, these rules and regulations could make it more difficult and more costly for Janel to obtain director and officer liability insurance, and it may be required to accept reduced policy limits and coverage or to incur substantial costs to maintain the same or similar coverage. These rules and regulations could also make it more difficult for Janel to attract and retain qualified persons to serve on its board of directors or its board committees or as executive officers. Janel's management and other personnel devote a substantial amount of time to these compliance initiatives. As a result, management's attention may be diverted from other business concerns, which could harm Janel's business and operating results.

If Janel fails to maintain an effective system of integrated internal controls, it may not be able to report its financial results accurately, which could have a material adverse effect on its business, financial condition and results of operations.

Ensuring that Janel has adequate internal financial and accounting controls and procedures in place so that it can produce accurate financial statements on a timely basis is a costly and time-consuming effort that will need to be evaluated frequently. Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act requires a public company to conduct an annual review and evaluation of its internal controls and attestations by independent auditors regarding the effectiveness of internal controls. Janel currently is not a "Large Accelerated Filer" or an "Accelerated Filer," and thus, it is exempt from the auditors' attestation requirement until such time as it may become a "Large Accelerated Filer" or an "Accelerated Filer." Regardless, Janel still needs to implement and maintain substantial control systems and procedures in order to satisfy the reporting requirements under the Exchange Act, among other items. Establishing and maintaining these internal controls have been, and will continue to be, costly and may divert management's attention.

Janel's management must evaluate its internal controls over financial reporting on a regular basis and may identify material weaknesses that may cause Janel to be unable to report its financial information on a timely basis. As a result, Janel may be exposed to adverse regulatory consequences, including sanctions by the SEC. There also could be a negative reaction in the financial markets due to a loss of investor confidence in Janel and the reliability of its financial statements. Confidence in the reliability of Janel's financial statements also could suffer if it or its independent registered public accounting firm were to report a material weakness in Janel's internal controls over financial reporting. This could materially adversely affect Janel's business, financial condition, results of operations and stock price.

Instead, we anticipate that all of our earnings in the foreseeable future, if any, will be used for the operation and growth of our business. Any future determination to pay dividends on our common stock will be at the discretion of our board of directors and will depend upon many factors, including our financial position, our results of operations, our liquidity, legal requirements, restrictions that may be imposed by the terms of current and future financing instruments, our need for cash to pay down debt, our need for cash to finance acquisitions and other factors deemed relevant by our board of directors. Our credit facility also restricts our ability to pay cash dividends on our common stock.

NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES

While we prepare our financial statements in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("U.S. GAAP"), we also utilize and present certain financial measures, in particular EBITA, that are not based on or included in U.S. GAAP (we refer to these as "non-GAAP financial measures").

EBITA

As a result of our acquisition strategy, our net income will include material non-cash charges relating to the amortization of customer related intangible assets and other intangible assets acquired in our acquisitions. Although these charges may increase as we complete more acquisitions, we believe we will be growing the value of our intangible assets such as customer relationships. Because these charges are not indicative of our operations, we believe that earnings before interest, taxes and amortization, or EBITA, is a useful financial measure for investors because it eliminates the effect of these non-cash costs and provides an important metric for our business that is more representative of the actual results of our operations.

EBITA is a non-GAAP measure of income and does not include the effects of preferred stock dividends, interest and taxes. EBITA is used by management as a supplemental performance and liquidity measure, primarily to exclude the impact of acquisition-related intangible assets in order to compare current financial performance to historical performance, assess the ability of our assets to generate cash and assist in the evaluation of potential acquisitions.

Companies have some discretion as to which elements of amortization are excluded in the EBITA calculation. We include all amortization charges related to leasehold improvements and bank financings. In the future, we may report adjusted EBITA to also exclude contingent considerations that warrant expense adjustments. We will not adjust EBITA to exclude expenses specifically attributable to acquisitions, severance and lease termination costs, foreign exchange gains and losses, litigation expenses or stock based-compensation. We do not adjust for depreciation as we view depreciation as a real, on-going expense. While management considers EBITA useful in analyzing our results, it is not intended to replace any presentation included in our consolidated financial statements.

The following table sets forth a reconciliation of Income (Loss) from Operations to EBITA:

ITEM 7.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Our discussions below in this Item 7 should be read in conjunction with our consolidated financial statements, including the notes thereto, included in this Annual Report on Form 10-K.

INTRODUCTION

Janel is a holding company with subsidiaries in two business segments: Global Logistics Services and Manufacturing. The Company's Global Logistics Services segment comprises several wholly-owned subsidiaries, collectively known as "Janel Group." The Company's Manufacturing segment comprises its majority-owned Indco subsidiary, which manufactures and distributes industrial mixing equipment. Janel's corporate group focuses on significant capital allocation decisions, corporate governance and supporting Janel's subsidiaries where appropriate.

In September 2014, the Company purchased the equity of Alpha International, LP and PCL Transport, LLC ("Alpha/PCL"), both global logistics services companies. Approximately one year later, it purchased the equity of Liberty International, Inc. ("Liberty"). On April 1, 2017, the Company acquired the equity of W.J. Byrnes & Co., Inc. ("Byrnes"). These businesses, along with the legacy Janel Group, comprise the Company's Global Logistics Services segment. In March 2016, the Company purchased Indco, Inc. ("Indco"), which comprises the Company's Manufacturing segment.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ESTIMATES

Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations discusses the Company's consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The preparation of these financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions about future events that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Since future events and their effects cannot be determined with absolute certainty, the determination of estimates requires the exercise of judgment. Actual results could differ from those estimates, and such differences may be material to the financial statements. The most significant accounting estimates inherent in the preparation of our financial statements include estimates as to revenue recognition, the appropriate carrying value of certain assets and liabilities which are not readily apparent from other sources, primarily allowance for doubtful accounts, accruals for transportation and other direct costs, accruals for cargo insurance, and deferred income taxes. Management bases its estimates on historical experience and on various assumptions which are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. We reevaluate these significant factors as facts and circumstances change. Historically, actual results have not differed significantly from our estimates. These accounting policies are more fully described in Note 1 of the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements.

Management believes that the nature of the Company's business is such that there are few, if any, complex challenges in accounting for operations. Revenue recognition is considered the critical accounting policy due to the complexity of arranging and managing global logistics and supply-chain management transactions.

Income taxes

The Company uses the asset and liability method of accounting for income taxes in accordance with ASC Topic 740, "Income Taxes." Under this method, income tax expense is recognized for the amount of: (i) taxes payable or refundable for the current year and (ii) deferred tax consequences of temporary differences resulting from matters that have been recognized in an entity's financial statements or tax returns. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in the results of operations in the period that includes the enactment date. The Company has no material uncertain tax positions for any of the reporting periods presented. The tax years September 30, 2013 through 2017 are still open for potential audit.

ASC Topic 740.10.30 clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in an enterprise's financial statements and prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. ASC Topic 740.10.40 provides guidance on recognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosure, and transition. We have no material uncertain tax positions for any of the reporting periods presented.

Goodwill

The Company records as goodwill the excess of purchase price over the fair value of the tangible and identifiable intangible assets acquired in a business combination. Under current authoritative guidance goodwill is not amortized but is tested for impairment annually (on September 30) as well as when an event or change in circumstance indicates impairment may have occurred. Goodwill is tested for impairment by comparing the fair value of the Company's individual reporting units to their carrying amount to determine if there is potential goodwill impairment. If the fair value of the reporting unit is less than its carrying value, an impairment loss is recorded to the extent that the implied fair value of the goodwill of the reporting unit is less than its carrying value. As of September 30, 2017 and 2016, the fair value of our reporting unit was in excess of carrying value and goodwill was not deemed to be impaired.

Intangibles and long-lived assets

Long-lived assets, including fixed assets and intangible assets, are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value may not be recoverable. In reviewing for impairment, the carrying value of such assets is compared to the estimated undiscounted future cash flows expected from the use of the assets and their eventual disposition. If such cash flows are not sufficient to support the asset's recorded value, an impairment charge is recognized to reduce the carrying value of the long-lived asset to its estimated fair value. The determination of future cash flows, as well as the estimated fair value of long-lived assets, involves significant estimates on the part of management. If there is a material change in economic conditions or other circumstances influencing the estimate of future cash flows or fair value, the Company could be required to recognize impairment charges in the future. There were no indicators of impairment of long-lived assets during the years ended September 30, 2017 and 2016.

Estimates

While judgments and estimates are a necessary component of any system of accounting, the Company's use of estimates is limited primarily to the following areas that in the aggregate are not a major component of the Company's consolidated statements of operations:

accounts receivable valuation;

the useful lives of long-term assets;

the accrual of costs related to ancillary services the Company provides; and

accrual of tax expense on an interim basis.

Management believes that the methods utilized in these areas are non-aggressive in approach and consistent in application. Management believes that there are limited, if any, alternative accounting principles or methods which could be applied to the Company's transactions. While the use of estimates means that actual future results may be different from those contemplated by the estimates, the Company believes that alternative principles and methods used for making such estimates would not produce materially different results than those reported.

Results of Operations - Global Logistics Services - Years ended September 30, 2017 and 2016

The Company's Global Logistics Services segment comprises several wholly-owned subsidiaries, collectively known as "Janel Group." Janel Group helps its clients move and manage freight efficiently to reduce inventories and to increase supply chain speed and reliability. Key services include customs entry filing, arrangement of freight forwarding by air, ocean and ground, warehousing, cargo insurance procurement, logistics planning, product repackaging and online shipment tracking.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates Applicable to the Global Logistics Services Segment

Revenue Recognition

Revenues are derived from customs brokerage services and from freight forwarding services.

Customs brokerage services include activities required for the clearance of shipments through government customs regimes, such as preparing required documentation, calculating and providing for payment of duties and other charges on behalf of customers, arranging required inspections, and arranging final delivery. Revenues are recognized upon completion of the services.

Freight forwarding may require multiple services, including long-distance shipment via air, ocean or ground assets, destination handling ("break bulk"), warehousing, distribution and other logistics management activities. As an asset-light business, Janel Group owns none of the assets by which it fulfills its customers' logistics needs. Rather, it purchases the services its customers need from asset owners, such as airlines and steamship lines, and resells them. By consolidating shipments from multiple customers, Janel Group can negotiate terms of service with asset owners that are more favorable than those the customers could negotiate themselves.

In the case of ocean and air freight movements, Janel Group may negotiate a contract of carriage, the terms of which determine when revenue is recognized. For movements by ground, revenue generally is recognized at the time of cargo tender to the vendor. For other activities, such as warehousing and distribution services, revenue is recognized upon completion of the service.

Customers will frequently request an all-inclusive, or "door-to-door," rate for a set of services. In these cases, the customer is billed a single rate for all services from pickup at origin to delivery. The allocation of revenue and expense among the components of services when provided under an all-inclusive rate are done in an objective manner on a fair value basis in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") 605-25, Multiple-Element Arrangements.

Net Revenue

Our total revenues represent the total dollar value of services and goods we sell to our customers. Our net revenues are our total revenues less forwarding expenses, which are purchased transportation and related services, including contracted air, ocean, rail, motor carrier and other costs. Total revenues can be influenced greatly by changes in transportation rates or other items, such as fuel prices, which we do not control. Our net revenues, however, are the primary indicator of our ability to source, add value, and sell services and products that are provided by third parties; therefore, we consider net revenues to be our primary performance measurement. Accordingly, the discussion of our results of operations below focuses on the changes in our net revenues.

Revenue

Total revenue from continuing operations in fiscal 2017 was $69,489,876, as compared to $70,596,132 in fiscal 2016, a decrease of $1,106,256 or 1.6%. Excluding an acquisition, revenue declined at a 4.6% rate due to lower freight rates and a slight organic decline in our base business.

Forwarding Expenses

Forwarding expenses from continuing operations in fiscal 2017 decreased by $1,405,276, or 2.4%, to $56,041,841 as compared to $57,447,117 in fiscal 2016 and, as a percentage of revenue, by 0.7%, from 81.4% in fiscal 2016 to 80.7% in fiscal 2017. Corresponding with the revenue decrease, the decrease in forwarding expenses primarily is due to lower freight rates and a slight organic decline in our base business.

Net Revenue

Net revenue from continuing operations in fiscal 2017 was $13,448,035, an increase of $299,020, or 2.3%, as compared to $13,149,015 in fiscal 2016. This increase mainly is the result of additional net revenue from an acquisition, which offset a slight organic decline in our base business.

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses

Selling, general and administrative expenses from continuing operations in fiscal 2017 were $10,847,497, as compared to $10,747,590 in fiscal 2016. This is an increase of $99,907, or 0.9%. The increase mainly was due to additional expenses from the Byrnes business since its acquisition in April 2017, offset by a reallocation of administrative expenses from Janel Group to the corporate group and cost efficiencies across the rest of Janel Group. As a percentage of revenue, selling, general and administrative expenses were 15.6% and 15.2% of revenue for fiscal 2017 and 2016, respectively. The increase of 0.4 percentage points from fiscal 2016 to fiscal 2017 mainly was a function of lower revenues as described above.

EBITA

EBITA increased to $2,600,538 in fiscal 2017 versus $2,401,425 in fiscal 2016. This is an increase of $199,113, or 8.3%. This increase is due to the benefit of reallocating some administrative expenses to the corporate group and efficiencies from prior year acquisitions offset by expenses associated with the integration of the Byrnes acquisition into Janel Group. See "Non-GAAP Financial Measures – EBITA" in Item 6. Selected Financial Data for additional information.

Income from Continuing Operations before Income Taxes

Janel Group earned income from continuing operations before income taxes of $2,088,159 for fiscal 2017, as compared to $1,896,251 for fiscal 2016. This is an increase of $191,908, or 10.1%. The increase primarily is due to the benefit of allocating some administrative expenses to the corporate group and cost efficiencies across Janel Group, offset by expenses associated with the integration of the Byrnes acquisition into Janel Group.

Results of Operations - Manufacturing - Year ended September 30, 2017 and Seven Months ended 2016

The Company's manufacturing segment comprises its majority-owned Indco subsidiary, which manufactures and distributes industrial mixing equipment. Indco provides solutions for the mixing needs of customers operating in diverse industries, including chemicals, inks, paints, construction, plastics, adhesives, cosmetics, food and pharmaceuticals. Solutions include over 2,500 standard product configurations, both manufactured and distributed, available for order from Indco's website and its print catalog, mailed quarterly. In addition, Indco manufactures custom-designed mixing solutions that Indco helps specify, design, machine, assemble and distribute.

Janel acquired a majority interest in Indco in March 2016. Therefore, fiscal 2016 figures represent the results of seven months of operations from March 1 through September 30, 2016, the period of Janel ownership.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates Applicable to the Manufacturing Segment

Revenue Recognition

Revenues are derived from the engineering, manufacture, and delivery of specialty mixing equipment. Payments are made by either credit card acceptance or invoice billing by Indco. A significant portion of sales comes from Indco's web-based catalog. Such online sales are generally credit card purchases. Revenue is recognized when products are shipped and risk of loss transfers to the carrier(s) used.

Note Regarding Comparison Between Periods

In the below items as they relate to the Manufacturing segment, fiscal 2016 represents seven months of operations from March 1 through September 30, 2016, the period in which Janel owned Indco. Increases in results of operations from fiscal 2016 to fiscal 2017 generally reflect the fact that fiscal 2017 consisted of 12 months of Indco operations while fiscal 2016 consisted of only seven months of Indco operations. We discuss changes in gross profit margin, as this measurement provides a basis of comparison of business performance in the two periods.

Revenue

Total revenue from continuing operations was $8,283,721 and $4,740,671 for fiscal 2017 and 2016, respectively.

Cost of Sales

Cost of sales for manufacturing was $3,706,669 and $2,092,026 for fiscal 2017 and 2016, respectively.

Gross Profit

Gross profit was $4,577,052 and $2,648,645 for fiscal 2017 and 2016, respectively.

Gross Profit Margin

Gross profit margin in the full-year period of fiscal 2017 was 55.3%, as compared to 55.9% in the seven-month period of Janel ownership in fiscal 2016. As a percentage of net sales, the cost of sales in the full-year fiscal 2017 period was 44.7%, as compared to 44.1% in the seven-month fiscal 2016 period. This increase of 0.6% primarily was the result of proportionally higher direct labor costs.

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses (Restated)

Selling, general and administrative expenses for the Manufacturing segment was $2,514,097 and $1,322,007 for fiscal 2017 and 2016, respectively.

EBITA (Restated)

EBITA for fiscal 2017 was $2,062,955 and $1,326,638 in fiscal 2016. See "Non-GAAP Financial Measures – EBITA" in Item 6. Selected Financial Data for additional information.

Income from Operations before Income Taxes (Restated)

Indco earned $2,062,955 and $1,320,805 in income from operations before income taxes for fiscal 2017 and 2016, respectively.

(a)	The corporate group was not accounted for separately until fiscal 2016.

Revenue

On a consolidated basis, the Company earned revenue of $77,773,597 in fiscal 2017, as compared to $75,336,803 in fiscal 2016. The increase of $2,436,794, or 3.23%, was the result of the full-year impact of Indco revenue, offset by slightly lower revenue in the Global Logistics Services segment.

EBITA (Restated)

On a consolidated basis, the Company earned EBITA of $2,870,640 in fiscal 2017, as compared to $2,752,354 in fiscal 2016. This is an increase of $118,286 or 4.30%, and mainly is the result of the full-year impact of the Indco acquisition, offset by increases in corporate expenses due to increased corporate development and stock-based compensation expense, an investment in the integration of the Byrnes acquisition and a slight organic decline in our base global logistics services business. See "Non-GAAP Financial Measures – EBITA" in Item 6. Selected Financial Data for additional information.

Amortization

For 2017 and 2016, corporate amortization expenses were $765,996 and $594,581, respectively. These amounts do not include the amortization associated with the Indco term loan origination fee. This is an increase of $171,415, or 28.8%. This increase is the result of the full-year impact of amortizing intangible assets associated with the Indco acquisition and additional intangible asset amortization associated with the Byrnes acquisition.

Interest Expense

Interest expense for the consolidated Company increased $115,005, or 17.0%, to $789,581 in fiscal 2017 from $674,576 in fiscal 2016. The increase primarily is due to the full-year impact of the term loan that financed the Indco acquisition.

Income Taxes (Restated)

On a consolidated basis, the Company recorded an income tax provision of $493,173 in fiscal 2017, as compared to a tax benefit of $2,100,367 in fiscal 2016. In 2016, a deferred tax asset was established to reflect a Net Operating Loss carryforward, which the Company has begun using, and is expected to continue to use, through ongoing profitability. The amount of net income attributable to this tax asset establishment in fiscal 2016 was $2,524,415.

Loss from Discontinued Operations

On August 28, 2013, the Company sold its New Jersey freight forwarding and logistics operations, and in June 2012 discontinued its food segment business. As a result, the New Jersey operations and ongoing expenses associated with the food segment are included in discontinued operations. Fiscal 2017 and 2016 reflects a loss from discontinued operations of ($147,333) and ($202,340), respectively. Refer to Note 7 to the Consolidated Financial Statements.

Preferred Stock Dividends

Preferred stock dividends include $15,000 in annual dividends, paid quarterly, on the Company's Preferred Series A shares and dividends accrued but not paid on the Company's Series C Cumulative Preferred Stock (the "Series C Stock"). In fiscal 2017 and 2016, preferred stock dividends were $517,214 and $395,189, respectively. The increase of $122,025, or 30.9%, is the result of the full-year impact of dividends on additional Preferred C shares issued in connection with the Indco acquisition. See Note 8A.

Net Income (Restated)

Net income available to common shareholders was $210,145, or $0.26 per diluted share, for fiscal 2017 and $2,986,035, or $4.77 per diluted share, for fiscal 2016. The decrease primarily is due to the establishment of the deferred tax asset in 2016 and the full-year impact of amortization, interest and preferred stock dividend expenses associated with the Indco acquisition, offset by lower discontinued operations expenses in fiscal 2017.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

General

Our ability to satisfy liquidity requirements, including to satisfy debt obligations and fund working capital, day-to-day operating expenses and capital expenditures, depends upon future performance, which is subject to general economic conditions, competition and other factors, some of which are beyond Janel's control. Subsidiaries depend on commercial credit facilities to fund day-to-day operations as there is a difference between the timing of collection cycles and the timing of payments to vendors. Generally, Janel does not make significant capital expenditures.

Janel's cash flow performance for the 2017 fiscal year is not necessarily indicative of future cash flow performance.

As of September 30, 2017, and compared with the prior fiscal year, the Company's cash and cash equivalents increased by $22,733, or 0.2%, to $987,848 from $965,115. During the fiscal year ended September 30, 2017, Janel's net working capital deficiency (current assets minus current liabilities) increased by $2,339,204, from ($4,525,786) at September 30, 2016, to ($6,684,990) at September 30, 2017. This increase is considered nominal, representing relatively stable collections from customers and payments of vendors in 2017 and 2016.

Cash flows from continuing operating activities

Net cash provided by continuing operating activities for fiscal 2017 and 2016 was $3,936,727 and $1,264,046, respectively. The increase in cash provided by continuing operations in fiscal 2017 was driven principally by operating income and an increase in accounts payable.

Cash flows from discontinued operating activities

Net cash used in discontinued operating activities was $72,983 and $202,340 for fiscal 2017 and 2016, respectively. The net cash used in both periods is related to legal fees and settlements.

Cash flows from investing activities

Net cash used for investing activities, mainly the acquisition of subsidiaries, was $202,377 for fiscal 2017 and $10,860,149 for fiscal 2016. The fiscal 2017 amount is associated with the April 2017 Byrnes acquisition, and the fiscal 2016 amount is associated with the March 2016 Indco acquisition.

Cash flows from financing activities

Net cash (used in) provided by financing activities was ($3,564,284) for fiscal 2017 and $9,820,810 for fiscal 2016. Net cash used in financing activities in fiscal 2017 primarily includes repayment of outstanding debt, the second of three earnout payments associated with the Alpha/PCL acquisition and a treasury share repurchase in March 2017. Net cash provided by financing activities in fiscal 2016 primarily includes debt issued in conjunction with the Indco acquisition as well as the sale of Series C Stock.

Credit Facilities

Global Logistics Services

Presidential Financial Corporation Facility

On March 27, 2014, Janel Corporation and several of its Janel Group subsidiaries (collectively, the "Janel Borrowers") entered into a Loan and Security Agreement (the "Presidential Loan Agreement") with Presidential Financial Corporation ("Presidential") with respect to a revolving line of credit facility (the "Presidential Facility"). At September 30, 2017, the Presidential Facility provided that the Janel Borrowers could borrow up to $10.0 million limited to 85% of the Janel Borrowers' aggregate outstanding eligible accounts receivable, subject to adjustment as set forth in the Presidential Loan Agreement. Interest accrued at an annual rate equal to five percent above the greater of (a) the prime rate of interest quoted in The Wall Street Journal from time to time, or (b) 3.25%. The Janel Borrowers' obligations under the Presidential Facility were secured by all of the assets of the Janel Borrowers. The Presidential Loan Agreement required, among other things, that the Company, on a monthly basis, maintain a "minimum fixed charge covenant ratio" and "tangible net worth," both as defined in the Presidential Loan Agreement. The Presidential Facility would have expired on March 27, 2018 (subject to earlier termination as provided in the Presidential Loan Agreement) unless renewed.

At September 30, 2017, outstanding borrowings under the Presidential Facility were $6,138,537, representing 80.3% of the $7,643,380 available thereunder, and interest was accruing at an effective interest rate of 7.5%. The Janel Borrowers were in compliance with the covenants defined in the Presidential Loan Agreement as of September 30, 2017.

Santander Bank Facility

On October 17, 2017, subsequent to the end of fiscal 2017, the Janel Group subsidiaries (collectively "Janel Group Borrowers"), with Janel Corporation as a guarantor, entered into a Loan and Security Agreement (the "Santander Loan Agreement") with Santander Bank, N.A. ("Santander") with respect to a revolving line of credit facility (the "Santander Facility"). The Santander Facility provides that the Janel Group Borrowers can borrow up to $10.0 million, limited to 85% of the Janel Group Borrowers' aggregate outstanding eligible accounts receivable, subject to adjustment as set forth in the Santander Loan Agreement. Interest accrues on the Santander Facility at an annual rate equal to, at the Janel Group Borrowers' option, Prime plus 0.50%, or LIBOR (30, 60 or 90 day) plus 2.50% subject to a LIBOR floor of 75 basis points. The Janel Group Borrowers' obligations under the Santander Facility are secured by all of the assets of the Janel Group Borrowers. The Santander Loan Agreement requires, among other things, that the Janel Group Borrowers, on a quarterly basis, maintain a Minimum Debt Service Coverage ratio, as defined in the Santander Loan Agreement.

At November 30, 2017, outstanding borrowings under the Santander Facility were $5,443,654, representing 57.1% of the $9,531,779 available thereunder, and interest was accruing at an effective interest rate of 4.75%. The Janel Group Borrowers were in compliance with the covenants defined in the Loan and Security Agreement.

Working Capital Requirements

Through October 16, 2017, Janel Group's cash needs were met by the Presidential Facility and cash on hand. As of September 30, 2017, the Company had, subject to collateral availability, $7,643,380 available under its $10.0 million Presidential Facility and $567,121 in cash. As of October 17, 2017, Janel Group's cash needs are met by the Santander Facility and cash on hand.

The Company believes that its current financial resources will be sufficient to finance Janel Group's operations and obligations (current and long-term liabilities) for the long and short terms. However, Janel Group's actual working capital needs for the long and short terms will depend upon numerous factors, including operating results, the cost associated with growing Janel Group, either internally or through acquisition, competition, and the availability under the Santander Facility, none of which can be predicted with certainty. If cash flow and available credit are not sufficient to fund working capital, Janel Group's operations will be materially negatively impacted.

Manufacturing

First Merchants Bank Facility

On March 21, 2016, Indco executed a Credit Agreement (the "First Merchants Credit Agreement") with First Merchants Bank ("First Merchants") with respect to a $6,000,000 term loan and $1,500,000 (limited to the borrowing base and reserves) revolving loan (together, the "First Merchants Facility"). Interest accrues on the term loan at an annual rate equal to the one-month LIBOR plus either 3.75% (if Indco's cash flow leverage ratio is less than or equal to 2:1) or 4.75% (if Indco's cash flow leverage ratio is greater than 2:1). Interest accrues on the revolving loan at an annual rate equal to the one-month LIBOR plus 2.75%. Indco's obligations under the First Merchants Facility are secured by all of Indco's assets and are guaranteed by the Company. The First Merchants Credit Agreement requires, among other things, that Indco, on a monthly basis, not exceed a "maximum total funded debt to EBITDA ratio" and maintain a "minimum fixed charge covenant ratio," both as defined in the First Merchants Credit Agreement. The First Merchants Facility requires monthly payments until the expiration date on the fifth anniversary of the loan. The loan is subject to earlier termination as provided in the First Merchants Credit Agreement, unless renewed.

As of September 30, 2017, there were no outstanding borrowings under the revolving loan and $3,860,540 of borrowings under the term loan, and interest was accruing at an effective interest rate of 4.98%. Indco is in compliance with the covenants defined in the First Merchants Credit Agreement.

Working Capital Requirements

Indco's cash needs are currently met by the term loan and revolving credit facility under the First Merchants Credit Agreement and cash on hand. As of September 30, 2017, Indco had $1.5 million available under its $1.5 million revolving facility subject to collateral availability and $420,727 in cash. The Company believes that the current financial resources will be sufficient to finance Indco operations and obligations (current and long-term liabilities) for the long and short terms. However, actual working capital needs for the long and short terms will depend upon numerous factors, including operating results, the cost associated with growing Indco either internally or through acquisition, competition, and the availability under the revolving credit facility, none of which can be predicted with certainty. If cash flow and available credit are not sufficient to fund working capital, Indco's operations will be materially negatively impacted.

CURRENT OUTLOOK

The results of operations in both the Global Logistics Services and Manufacturing segments are affected by the general economic cycle, particularly as it influences global trade levels and specifically the import and export activities of our Janel Group business's various current and prospective customers. Historically, the Company's quarterly results of operations have been subject to seasonal trends which have been the result of, or influenced by, numerous factors including climate, national holidays, consumer demand, economic conditions, the growth and diversification of Janel Group's international network and service offerings, and other similar and subtle forces. The Company cannot accurately forecast many of these factors, nor can it estimate accurately the relative influence of any particular factor and, as a result, there can be no assurance that historical patterns, if any, will continue in future periods.

The Company's subsidiaries are implementing business strategies to grow revenue and profitability for fiscal 2018 and beyond. Janel Group's strategy calls for additional branch offices, introduction of new revenue streams for existing locations, sales force expansion, additional acquisitions, and a continued focus on implementing lean methodologies to contain operating expenses. Indco's strategy calls for introduction of new product lines and wider distribution and promotion of its print and web-based catalog.

In addition to supporting its subsidiaries' growth plans, the Company may seek to grow Janel by entering new business segments through acquisition.

Certain elements of the Company's profitability and growth strategy, principally proposals for acquisition and accelerating revenue growth, are contingent upon the availability of adequate financing on terms acceptable to the Company. Without adequate equity and/or debt financing, the implementation of significant aspects of the Company's strategic growth plan may be deferred beyond the originally anticipated timing, and the Company's operations will be materially negatively impacted.

CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Janel maintains a system of disclosure controls and procedures that is designed to provide reasonable assurance that information, which is required to be disclosed in the reports that it files or submits under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended ("Exchange Act"), is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the rules and forms of the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC"), and is accumulated and communicated to management in a timely manner. The Company's Chief Executive Officer, who is the Company's principal executive officer and principal financial officer, has evaluated this system of disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this Annual Report, and has concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of September 30, 2017. Subsequent to that evaluation, our chief executive officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of September 30, 2017 because of the subsequently-discovered material weakness in our internal control over financial reporting described below. Accordingly, management is restating its conclusions in this Amendment No. 1.

Management's Annual Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting

Company management, including the Chief Executive Officer, who is the Company's principal executive officer and principal financial officer, is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting, as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act. Internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external reporting purposes in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("U.S. GAAP"). 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 the assets of the Company; (ii) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with U.S. GAAP, and that the Company's receipts and expenditures are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the Company; and (iii) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the Company's assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements. Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. 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 policies or procedures may deteriorate.

Our management assessed the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of September 30, 2017. This assessment was based on criteria for effective internal control over financial reporting set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission Internal Control-Integrated Framework (2013) ("COSO 2013").

In connection with the preparation of the Company's Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the period ended December 31, 2017, Management identified the following material weaknesses as of September 30, 2017:

We did not maintain a sufficient complement of personnel with an appropriate level of accounting knowledge, experience, and training in the application of U.S. GAAP necessary to support our operations; and

We did not apply the appropriate level of review and oversight in the accounting for and disclosure of significant, infrequently occurring transactions such as for business combinations.

As a result of these material weaknesses, our management has concluded that our internal control over financial reporting was not effective as of September 30, 2017.

Our management performed analyses, substantive procedures, and other post-closing activities with the assistance of consultants and other professional advisors in order to ensure the validity, completeness and accuracy of our income tax provision and accounting for complex and/or non-routine transactions and the related disclosures. Accordingly, our management believes that the financial statements included in this Amendment No. 1 as of September 30, 2017 and September 30, 2016, and for the years ended September 30, 2017 and September 30, 2016, are fairly presented, in all material respects, and in conformity with U.S. GAAP.

Remediation Plan

Our management has been actively engaged in remediation efforts to address the material weaknesses, as well as other identified areas of risk. These remediation efforts, outlined below, are intended to address the identified material weaknesses and to enhance our overall control environment.

In an effort to remediate these material weaknesses, the Company has undertaken the following steps:

the appointment of a new corporate controller;

engagement of external advisors to supplement the staff charged with compiling and filing our U.S. GAAP results;

implementation of organizational structure changes that better integrate the tax accounting and finance functions, as well as a formalized review process;

enhancement of our processes and procedures for determining, documenting and calculating our income tax provision;

increasing the level of certain tax review activities throughout the year and during the financial statement close process; and

enhancing the procedures and documentation requirements, including related training, surrounding the evaluation and recording of complex and/or non-routine transactions, such as business combinations.

Our management believes that the foregoing efforts will effectively remediate the material weaknesses. As we continue to evaluate and work to improve our internal control over financial reporting, our management may decide to take additional measures to address the material weaknesses or modify the remediation plan described above.

Internal control over financial reporting, no matter how well designed, has inherent limitations. Therefore, even those controls determined to be effective may not prevent or detect misstatements and can provide only reasonable assurance with respect to financial statement preparation and presentation. 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.

Our executive management team, together with our board of directors, is committed to achieving and maintaining a strong control environment, high ethical standards, and financial reporting integrity.

This Annual Report does not include an attestation report of the Company's registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting. Management's report was not subject to attestation by the Company's registered public accounting firm pursuant to the exemption provided to issuers that are neither "large accelerated filers" nor "accelerated filers" under the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act.

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

There was no change in our internal control over financial reporting during the three months ended September 30, 2017 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting, except as noted above with respect to the identified material weakness regarding personnel and oversight of significant, infrequently occurring transactions.

Employment Arrangements

On February 26, 2017, the Company entered into an agreement with Mr. Gonzalez to serve as a Director and as Senior Advisor for Mergers and Acquisitions for the Company, effective October 1, 2017. The initial term of the agreement ends on September 30, 2019, and thereafter will renew automatically for an additional two-year term unless either party provides notice that it does not wish to renew. Under the terms of the agreement, the Company will pay Mr. Gonzalez an annual retainer of $40,000 for his service as a director of the Company and an annual salary of $90,000. The agreement also provides that Mr. Gonzalez is entitled to typical employee benefits and that the Company will guarantee the last of three $500,000 earnout payments contemplated under the September 2014 Alpha/PCL purchase agreement.

Code of Business Conduct and Ethics

The Company has adopted a code of business conduct and ethics that applies to all of its employees, officers and directors, including those officers responsible for financial reporting. The code of business conduct and ethics is available on the Company's website at www.janelcorp.com .

Corporate Governance Guidelines

The Company's board of directors has adopted corporate governance guidelines that serve as a flexible framework within which its board of directors and its committees operate.

A copy of the corporate governance guidelines is available on the Company's website at www.janelcorp.com.

Communications with the Board

Any stockholder desiring to contact the board, or any specific director(s), may send written communications to: Board of Directors (Attention: (Name(s) of director(s), as applicable)), c/o the Company's Secretary, 303 Merrick Road, Suite 400, Lynbrook, New York 11563. Any proper communication so received will be processed by the Secretary. If it is unclear from the communication received whether it was intended or appropriate for the board, the Secretary will (subject to any applicable regulatory requirements) use his or her judgment to determine whether such communication should be conveyed to the board or, as appropriate, to the member(s) of the board named in the communication.

Leadership Structure and Risk Oversight

While the board believes that there are various structures which can provide successful leadership to the Company, the Company's executive functions are carried out by the Company's President and Chief Executive Officer, who serves on the Company's board of directors and, together with the other directors, brings experience, oversight and expertise to the management of the Company. The board believes that, due to the small size of the Company, this leadership structure best serves the Company and its stockholders.

Management is responsible for the day-to-day management of risks the Company faces, while the board has collective responsibility for the oversight of risk management. In its risk oversight role, the board has the responsibility to satisfy itself that the risk management processes designed and implemented by management are adequate and functioning as designed. To do this, management discusses with the board the risks facing the Company and its strategy for managing them.

Compliance with Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act

Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act, as amended, requires that the Company's directors and executive officers and each person who owns more than 10% of the Company's common stock file with the SEC in a timely manner an initial report of beneficial ownership and subsequent reports of changes in beneficial ownership of the shares. To the Company's knowledge, during the fiscal year ended September 30, 2017, all reports required to be filed pursuant to Section 16(a) were filed on a timely basis, except for the following:

Gerard van Kesteren filed a Form 3 on February 1, 2017 relating to his appointment as a director on November 18, 2015;

James Jannello filed a Form 4 on April 19, 2017 for a transaction that occurred on March 31, 2017; and

Carlos Pla filed a Form 3 on May 9, 2017 relating to his appointment as Chief Financial Officer on February 15, 2017.

Audit Committee Report

The Audit Committee has reviewed and discussed with management the annual audited financial statements of the Company and its subsidiaries.

The Audit Committee has discussed with Paritz & Company, P.A., the independent auditors for the Company for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2017, the matters required to be discussed by Statement on Auditing Standards 61, as amended, as adopted by the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board in Rule 3200T. The Audit Committee has received the written disclosures and the letter from the independent auditors required by Rule 3526, Communication with Audit Committees Concerning Independence, as adopted by the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board and has discussed with the independent auditors the independent auditors' independence.

Based on the foregoing review and discussions, the Audit Committee recommended and the board of directors approved the inclusion of the audited financial statements in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2017 for filing with the SEC.

The following executive compensation tables and related narrative describe the compensation awarded to, earned by or paid to the named executive officers for services provided to the Company during the fiscal years ended September 30, 2017 and 2016.

Long-Term Incentive Plan Awards

We do not have any long-term incentive plans that provide compensation intended to serve as incentive for performance.

The Company maintains two contributory 401(k) plans covering substantially all full-time employees. The 401(k) plans provide for participant contributions of up to 40% and 50% of annual compensation (not to exceed the IRS limit), as defined by the plan. The Company contributes an amount equal to 40% and 50% of the participant's first 4% and 6% of contributions.

The following tables set forth information concerning beneficial ownership of shares of common stock outstanding as of September 30, 2017. For purposes of calculating beneficial ownership, Rule 13d-3 of the Exchange Act requires inclusion of shares of common stock that may be acquired within sixty days of the stated date.

CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS, RELATED TRANSACTIONS AND DIRECTOR INDEPENDENCE

Related Party Transactions

We are not aware of any transactions, since the beginning of the last fiscal year, or any proposed transactions, in which the Company was a party, where the amount involved exceeded $120,000 and in which a director, executive officer, holder of more than 5% of our common stock, or any member of the immediate family of any of the foregoing persons, had or will have a direct or indirect material interest.

Independence of Directors

The Company is not currently subject to listing requirements of any national securities exchange or inter-dealer quotation system which has requirements that a majority of the board of directors be "independent" and, as a result, is not at this time required to (and does not) have a board of directors comprised of a majority of "Independent Directors." The Company's board of directors has made no determination on director independence, but in the coming year intends to determine the independence of its directors based on the rules of the NASDAQ Stock Exchange for companies that are listed on NASDAQ.

Approval of Independent Auditor Services and Fees

The Company's Chief Executive Officer reviews all fees charged by the Company's independent auditors, and actively monitors the relationship between audit and non-audit services provided. The Chief Executive Officer must pre-approve all audit and non-audit services provided by the Company's independent auditors and fees charged.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED ACCOUNTING FIRM

Board of Directors and Stockholders

Janel Corporation and Subsidiaries

Lynbrook, New York

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Janel Corporation and Subsidiaries as of September 30, 2017 and 2016 and the related consolidated statements of operations, changes in stockholders' equity and cash flows for the years then ended. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the 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 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 control 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 financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall 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 financial position of Janel Corporation and Subsidiaries as of September 30, 2017 and 2016 and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the years then ended in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

As discussed in Note 1 to the consolidated financial statements, the fiscal years ended September 30, 2017 and 2016 financial statements have been restated due to the correction of errors. Our opinion is not modified with respect to this matter.

/s/ Paritz & Company, P.A

Hackensack, New Jersey

JANEL CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1	SUMMARY OF BUSINESS AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Business description

Janel Corporation and Subsidiaries ("the Company" or "Janel") operates its business as two distinct segments: Global Logistics Services and Manufacturing.

The Company's Global Logistics Services segment comprises several wholly-owned subsidiaries, collectively known as "Janel Group." Janel Group provides full-service cargo transportation logistics management services, including freight forwarding via air, ocean and land-based carriers, customs brokerage services, warehousing and distribution services, and other value-added logistics services.

On March 21, 2016, the Company purchased Indco, Inc. ("Indco"). Indco comprises the Company's Manufacturing business segment. Indco manufactures and distributes custom-designed industrial mixing equipment and apparatus for specific applications within various industries. The customer base comprises small- to mid-sized businesses as well as repetitive production orders for other larger customers. The Company acquired Indco in order to diversify cash flow streams.

On April 1, 2017, the Company purchased W.J. Byrnes & Co. ("Byrnes"), a global logistics services provider with five U.S. locations. Alpha/PCL, Liberty and Byrnes, along with the legacy Janel Group, comprise Janel Corporation's Global Logistics Services segment.

Basis of consolidation

The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries, as well as Indco, which is majority 91.65% owned with a non-controlling interest held by existing Indco management. The Indco non-controlling interest is mandatorily redeemable in certain circumstances and is recorded as a liability, see Note 2. All intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation. Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation.

Restatement of Consolidated Financial Statements

On February 14, 2018, the Company's audit committee of the board of directors, after consultation with management and the Company's predecessor auditors, concluded that the Company's financial statements for the years ended September 30, 2016 and 2017 as well as the quarters ended March 31, 2016, June 30, 2016, December 31, 2016, March 31, 2017, and June 30, 2017 should be restated because the financial statements did not properly account for the following items:

Accounting for Indco business acquisition – The Company determined it did not properly apply ASC 805 in its initial accounting for the Indco acquisition, which was completed on March 21, 2016. The Company incorrectly accounted for the acquisition as an asset purchase and not a stock purchase and therefore incorrectly accounted for deferred taxes related to the acquisition. At the date of the acquisition of Indco the Company did not record a deferred tax liability related to the amortization of acquired intangible assets. At the date of the acquisition a deferred tax liability of $2,095,307 should have been established for the differences related to intangible assets for which amortization is not deductible for tax purposes but is amortized for book purposes. In addition, there was an error for an incorrect deferred tax liability of $1,355,963 carried over from Indco's books in the initial purchase price allocation. The $1,355,963 represented the closing balance sheet deferred tax liability position of Indco as of the acquisition date; however, no measures were taken to incorporate the step-up in intangible assets for book purposes or the existing tax basis in the existing intangible assets of Indco resulting in an error. The result of these errors is goodwill increased by a net of $739,344 and the deferred tax liability should have been $739,344 higher at the acquisition date subject to further adjustment for mandatorily redeemable non-controlling interest noted below.

During fiscal year ended September 30, 2017, the Company made a determination that the Company incorrectly included $1,355,963 of deferred tax liabilities on Indco's books in the purchase price allocation that was recorded in error on the acquisition date. As a result, goodwill and the deferred tax liability were adjusted $1,355,963 lower during the fourth quarter ended September 30, 2017. As noted above the Company should have recorded an initial deferred tax liability of $2,095,307 on the acquisition date with an initial goodwill value of $4,402,838 related to the transaction. As a result, the fiscal year ended September 30, 2017 deferred tax liability and corresponding goodwill relating to Indco's opening balance sheet was $2,095,307 lower than it should have been, before consideration of the amortization of book and tax (pre-acquisition goodwill) for intangible assets dating back to the date of the acquisition that have now been incorporated into the restated financial statements.

F-6

In addition, the Indco mandatorily redeemable non-controlling interest balance was incorrectly valued as part of the purchase price allocation. The initial recorded value of mandatorily redeemable non-controlling interest was $918,248 on the acquisition date. The Company subsequently corrected this error to include debt at closing which resulted in a correct mandatorily redeemable non-controlling interest of $723,912 on acquisition date. The difference in the original amount and corrected amount resulted in a reduction in the goodwill balance of $194,336. Lastly, the Company incorrectly recorded the purchase price of the Indco acquisition as $11,000,000 rather than the actual consideration of $11,098,335, and as a result the Company increased goodwill by $98,325.

The acquisition of Indco resulted in a mandatorily redeemable non-controlling interest. Company incorrectly accounted for the mandatorily redeemable non-controlling interest as a component of equity instead of a liability in accordance with ASC 480. The mandatorily redeemable non-controlling interest holders have redemption rights and can require the Company to repurchase the non-controlling interests of those owners upon certain events outside the control of the Company, including upon the death of the holder. Twenty percent of the 8.45% mandatorily redeemable non-controlling interest will be subject to purchase by the Company at the option of the holder beginning on the third anniversary of the date of the Indco acquisition. As a result of these repurchase features the mandatorily redeemable non-controlling interest is considered to be mandatorily redeemable and therefore should be accounted for as a liability in accordance with ASC 480.

The total impact of the proper application of ASC 805 and ASC 480 for the Indco acquisition as of September 30, 2016 are increases in goodwill of $643,333 and deferred tax liabilities of $734,581 and a decrease in mandatorily redeemable non-controlling interest liability of $194,336. As of the September 30, 2017, the total impact of the proper application of ASC 805 and ASC 480 are increases to goodwill of $1,999,296 and deferred tax liabilities of $2,095,307 and a decrease of the mandatorily redeemable non-controlling interest of $194,336.

In each period subsequent to the acquisition of Indco, mandatorily redeemable non-controlling interest was adjusted to remove net income attributable to non-controlling interest in the amount of $108,084 and $82,978 for the years ended September 30, 2017 and 2016, respectively, as well as the change in fair value of mandatorily redeemable non-controlling interest of $52,802 for the year ended September 30, 2017.

Reclassification of Contingently Redeemable Series C Cumulative Preferred Stock to temporary equity – The Company determined that it did not properly apply ASC 480-10-S99-3A in classifying contingently redeemable Series C Cumulative Preferred Stock (the "Series C Stock"). The Series C Stock provides the holders limited rights to require the Company to repurchase their equity interests upon the occurrence of certain events. The contingently redeemable Series C Stock should be classified in the Company's balance sheet as "temporary" or mezzanine equity in accordance with ASC 480.

The impact of the proper application of ASC 480 is a reclassification of $7,712,258, which included $609,565 of accrued and unpaid dividends, from "permanent" equity to "temporary" or mezzanine equity at September 30, 2016. On May 12, 2017 the Company amended the terms of the Series C Stock which removed the repurchase features resulting in the Series C Stock being accounted for as a component of permanent equity which the Company properly reported as of September 30, 2017.

Other adjustments – The Company also identified and made corrections for certain other accounting matters affecting the Company's previous financial statements. These include (i) corrections for stock-based compensation expense for units not properly granted, (ii) corrections related to the incorrect netting of accounts receivables related to work in process for duties and freight which was previously netted against trade payable, (iii) reclassified expenses related to discontinued operations improperly included in selling, general and administrative expenses, and (iv) accounting for income taxes related to permanent and temporary differences.

The adjustments in the tables above also affect the tables and disclosures within Notes 1, 2, 8, 10, 11, and 13 of these financial statements as labeled therein.

Uses of estimates in the preparation of financial statements

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles 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 financial statements and the reported amounts of net revenue and expenses during each reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Cash and cash equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents consist of cash and highly liquid investments with remaining maturities of less than ninety days at the date of purchase. As of September 30, 2017, and 2016, there were no cash equivalents.

The Company maintains cash balances at various financial institutions. Accounts at each institution are insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation up to $250,000. The Company's accounts at these institutions may, at times, exceed the federally insured limits. The Company has not experienced any losses in such accounts.

Accounts receivable and allowance for doubtful accounts receivable

The Company has a policy of reserving for uncollectible accounts based on its best estimate of the amount of probable credit losses in its existing accounts receivable. The Company extends credit to its customers based on an evaluation of their financial condition and other factors. The Company generally does not require collateral or other security to support accounts receivable. The Company performs ongoing credit evaluations of its customers and maintains an allowance for potential bad debts if required.

The Company determines whether an allowance for doubtful accounts is required by evaluating specific accounts where information indicates the customers may have an inability to meet financial obligations. In these cases, the Company uses assumptions and judgment, based on the best available facts and circumstances, to record a specific allowance for those customers against amounts due to reduce the receivable to the amount expected to be collected. These specific allowances are re-evaluated and adjusted as additional information is received. The amounts calculated are analyzed to determine the total amount of the allowance. The Company may also record a general allowance as necessary.

F-16

Direct write-offs are taken in the period when the Company has exhausted its efforts to collect overdue and unpaid receivables or otherwise evaluate other circumstances that indicate that the Company should abandon such efforts.

Inventory

Inventory is stated at the lower of cost (first-in, first-out method) or net realizable value. Finished goods are shipped upon completion of assembly. Therefore, no finished goods were on hand as of September 30, 2017.

Property and equipment and depreciation policy

Property and equipment are recorded at cost. Depreciation is provided for in amounts sufficient to amortize the costs of the related assets over their estimated useful lives on the straight-line and accelerated methods for both financial reporting and income tax purposes.

Maintenance, repairs and minor renewals are charged to expense when incurred. Replacements and major renewals are capitalized.

Business segment information

The Company operates as two reportable segments: Global Logistics Services and Manufacturing.

Revenues and revenue recognition

Global Logistics Services

Revenues are derived from customs brokerage services and from freight forwarding services.

Manufacturing

Revenues are derived from the engineering, manufacture, and delivery of specialty mixing equipment. Payments are made by either credit card acceptance or invoice billing by the Company. A significant portion of sales comes from its print- and web-based catalog and specification features. Such online sales are generally credit card purchases. Revenue is recognized when its products are shipped and risk of loss transfers to the carrier(s) used.

F-17

Income per common share

Basic net income (loss) per share is computed by dividing net income (loss) for the period by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding, excluding unvested restricted stock, during the period. Diluted net income (loss) per share reflects the additional dilution from potential issuances of common stock, such as stock issuable pursuant to the exercise of stock options or warrants or the vesting of restricted stock units. The treasury stock method is used to calculate the potential dilutive effect of these common stock equivalents. Potentially dilutive shares are excluded from the computation of diluted net earnings (loss) per share when their effect is anti-dilutive.

Stock-based compensation

The Company recognizes compensation expense for stock-based compensation in accordance with ASC Topic 718. For employee stock-based awards, we calculate the fair value of the award on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes method for stock options and the quoted price of our common stock for unrestricted shares; the expense is recognized over the service period for awards expected to vest.

Comprehensive income

Comprehensive income encompasses all changes in stockholders' equity other than those arising from stockholders, and generally consists of net income and unrealized gains and losses on unrestricted available-for-sale marketable equity securities. As of September 30, 2017 and 2016, there was no accumulated other comprehensive income.

Income taxes

The Company uses the asset and liability method of accounting for income taxes in accordance with ASC Topic 740, Income Taxes. Under this method, income tax expense is recognized for the amount of: (i) taxes payable or refundable for the current year and (ii) deferred tax consequences of temporary differences resulting from matters that have been recognized in an entity's financial statements or tax returns. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in the results of operations in the period that includes the enactment date. The Company has no material uncertain tax positions for any of the reporting periods presented. The tax years September 30, 2014 through 2017 are still open for potential audit.

Goodwill

The Company records as goodwill the excess of purchase price over the fair value of the tangible and identifiable intangible assets acquired in a business combination. Under current authoritative guidance, goodwill is not amortized but is tested for impairment annually (on September 30) as well as when an event or change in circumstance indicates impairment may have occurred. Goodwill is tested for impairment by comparing the fair value of the Company's individual reporting units to their carrying amount to determine if there is potential goodwill impairment. If the fair value of the reporting unit is less than its carrying value, an impairment loss is recorded to the extent that the implied fair value of the goodwill of the reporting unit is less than its carrying value. As of September 30, 2017 and 2016, the fair value of our reporting unit was in excess of carrying value and goodwill was not deemed to be impaired.

Intangibles and long-lived assets

F-18

Fair value measurements

The Company adopted the provisions of ASC Topic 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures, which defines fair value as used in numerous accounting pronouncements, establishes a framework for measuring fair value and expands disclosure of fair value measurements.

The estimated fair value of certain financial instruments, including cash and cash equivalents, prepaid expenses, and accounts payable and accrued expenses are carried at historical cost basis, which approximates their fair values because of the short-term nature of these instruments.

ASC 820 defines fair value as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. ASC 820 also establishes a fair value hierarchy, which requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. ASC 820 describes three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value:

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

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

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

The Company has no financial instruments measured at fair value as of September 30, 2017 and 2016.

Deferred compensation

Deferred compensation of $78,568 represents compensation due to an employee of the Company upon termination, retirement or death. This amount has not changed since 1992 and was accrued during the years 1984 through 1992.

Rental expense

Rental expense is accounted for on the straight-line method.

Deferred rent payable as of September 30, 2017 amounted to $4,150 and represents the excess of recognized rent expense over scheduled lease payments and is included in accrued expenses and other current liabilities. Deferred rent payable as of September 30, 2016 was $15,911.

Mandatorily Redeemable Non-Controlling Interests

The non-controlling interests that are reflected as mandatorily redeemable non-controlling interests in the consolidated financial statements consist of non-controlling interests related to the Indco acquisition whose owners who have certain redemption rights that allow them to require that the Company purchase the non-controlling interests of those owners upon certain events outside the control of the Company, including upon the death of the holder. Twenty percent of the 8.45% mandatorily redeemable non-controlling interest will be subject to purchase by the Company at the option of the holder beginning on the third anniversary of the date of the Indco acquisition. On the date the Company acquires the controlling interest in a business combination, the fair value of the non-controlling interest is recorded in the long-term liabilities section of the consolidated balance sheet under the caption – Mandatorily redeemable non-controlling interests. The mandatorily redeemable non-controlling interest is adjusted each reporting period to its then current redemption value, based on the predetermined formula defined in the respective agreement. The Company reflects any adjustment in the redemption value and any earnings attributable to the mandatorily redeemable non-controlling interest in its consolidated statements of income by recording the adjustments and earnings to other income and expense in the caption – "change in fair value of mandatorily redeemable non-controlling interest."

Recent accounting pronouncements

In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606), which requires entities to recognize revenue in a way that depicts the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration the entities expect to receive in exchange for those goods or services. The new guidance also requires additional disclosure about the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from customer contracts, including significant judgments and changes in judgments and assets recognized from costs incurred to obtain or fulfill a contract. The FASB subsequently issued ASU No. 2016-10, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606): Identifying Performance Obligations and Licensing, to address issues arising from implementation of the new revenue recognition standard. ASU 2014-09 and ASU 2016-10 are effective for interim and annual periods beginning October 1, 2018, and may be adopted earlier, but not before October 1, 2017. The revenue standards are required to be adopted by taking either a full retrospective or a modified retrospective approach. The Company is continuing to assess the impact of the new guidance on its accounting policies and procedures and is evaluating the new requirements as applied to existing revenue contracts.

F-19

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842). ASU 2016-02 requires an entity to recognize right-of-use assets and lease liabilities on its balance sheet and disclose key information about leasing arrangements. Lessees and lessors are required to disclose qualitative and quantitative information about leasing arrangements to enable a user of the financial statements to assess the amount, timing and uncertainty of cash flows arising from leases. ASU 2016-02 is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2018. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact, if any, of adoption of ASU 2016-02 on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

In March 2016, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") 2016-09, Compensation-Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting. Under ASU 2016-09, companies will no longer record excess tax benefits and certain tax deficiencies in additional paid-in capital ("APIC"). Instead, they will record all excess tax benefits and tax deficiencies as income tax expense or benefit in the income statement and the APIC pools will be eliminated. In addition, ASU 2016-09 eliminates the requirement that excess tax benefits be realized before companies can recognize them. ASU 2016-09 also requires companies to present excess tax benefits as an operating activity on the statement of cash flows rather than as a financing activity. Furthermore, ASU 2016-09 will increase the amount an employer can withhold to cover income taxes on awards and still qualify for the exception to liability classification for shares used to satisfy the employer's statutory income tax withholding obligation. An employer with a statutory income tax withholding obligation will now be allowed to withhold shares with a fair value up to the amount of taxes owed using the maximum statutory tax rate in the employee's applicable jurisdiction(s). ASU 2016-09 requires companies to classify the cash paid to a tax authority when shares are withheld to satisfy their statutory income tax withholding obligation as a financing activity on the statement of cash flows. Under current U.S. GAAP, it was not specified how these cash flows should be classified. In addition, companies will now have to elect whether to account for forfeitures on share-based payments by (1) recognizing forfeitures of awards as they occur or (2) estimating the number of awards expected to be forfeited and adjusting the estimate when it is likely to change, as is currently required. The Company adopted ASU 2016-09 on January 1, 2017. The adoption did not have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-04, Intangibles - Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): Simplifying the Accounting for Goodwill Impairment. ASU 2017-04 removes Step 2 of the goodwill impairment test, which requires a hypothetical purchase price allocation. A goodwill impairment will now be the amount by which a reporting unit's carrying value exceeds its fair value, not to exceed the carrying amount of goodwill. This standard will be effective for the Company beginning in the first quarter of fiscal year 2021 and is required to be applied prospectively. Early adoption is permitted for interim or annual goodwill impairment tests performed on testing dates after January 1, 2017. The Company adopted ASU 2017-04 on September 30, 2017. The adoption did not have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

In January 2017, the FASB issued an ASU 2017-01, Business Combinations (Topic 805): Clarifying the Definition of a Business. The amendments in this update clarify the definition of a business with the objective of adding guidance to assist entities with evaluating whether transactions should be accounted for as acquisitions (or disposals) of assets or businesses. The definition of a business affects many areas of accounting including acquisitions, disposals, goodwill, and consolidation. The guidance is effective for fiscal periods beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within those periods. The Company adopted ASU 2017-01 on January 1, 2017. The Company is currently assessing the potential impact of adopting ASU 2017-01 on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

In May 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-09, Compensation-Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Scope of Modification Accounting. ASU 2017-09 provides clarity and reduces both (1) diversity in practice and (2) cost and complexity when applying the guidance in Topic 718, to a change to the terms or conditions of a share-based payment award. The amendments in ASU 2017-09 should be applied prospectively to an award modified on or after the adoption date. This ASU is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2017. The Company is currently assessing the potential impact of adopting ASU 2017-09 on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

2	ACQUISITIONS

(A) INDCO, INC. (Restated)

On March 21, 2016, the Company executed and closed a Stock Purchase Agreement (the "Indco Purchase Agreement") for the purchase by the Company of the outstanding common stock of Indco (the "Indco Shares"), representing approximately 91.65% of the beneficial ownership of Indco. The remaining 8.35% ownership of Indco was retained by existing Indco management.

F-20

Under the terms of the Indco Purchase Agreement, the purchase price for the Indco Shares was $11.1 million, subject to certain closing adjustments and customary indemnifications, representations and warranties which amount was paid at closing in cash.

The Indco noncontrolling interest includes a put right which allows the holder to require the Company to purchase its interests in cash on a determinable date outside the control of the Company and the Indco noncontrolling interest is also redeemable upon the death of the holder, at the option of the holder's heir or estate. As a result of the rights of the mandatorily redeemable non-controlling interest holders, the non-controlling interest is considered mandatorily redeemable in accordance with ASC 480. As such, the redeemable noncontrolling interests are classified as a liability at fair value and subsequently remeasured each reporting period to reflect the redemption value with changes recorded in fair value recognized in earnings. The change in the fair value for the period ended September 30, 2017 was a decrease of $52,802.

Purchase price allocation

In accordance with the acquisition method of accounting, the Company allocated the consideration to the net tangible and identifiable intangible assets based on their estimated fair values which were determined by an independent valuation performed by a third party.

Goodwill represents the excess of the purchase price over the fair value of the underlying net tangible and identifiable intangible assets.

The assets acquired and liabilities assumed as part of the acquisition of Indco were recognized at their fair values as of the effective acquisition date, March 1, 2016. The following table summarizes the restated fair values assigned to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed.

Series C Cumulative Preferred Stock

On August 25, 2014, the Company filed with the Nevada Secretary of State a Certificate of Designation for 7,000 shares of Series C Stock, par value $0.001 per share, which was increased to 20,000 shares by a Certificate of Amendment to Certificate of Designation filed with the Nevada Secretary of State on March 23, 2016.

By the filing of the Certificate of Amendment on March 23, 2016, the annual dividend rate was decreased to 7.00% per annum of the Original Issuance Price, when, as and if declared by the Company's board of directors, such rate to increase by 2% annually beginning on the third anniversary of issuance of such Series C Stock to a maximum rate of 13.0%. In the event of liquidation, Series C Holders shall be paid an amount equal to the Original Issuance Price, plus any accrued but unpaid dividends thereon.

At September 30, 2017, a total of 66,524 equity options and restricted stock awards were outstanding under the 2017 Plan and 33,476 shares were still available for issuance.

(A) Stock Options

The Company uses the Black-Scholes option pricing model to estimate the fair value of our share-based awards. In applying this model, we use the following assumptions:

•

Risk-free interest rate - We determine the risk-free interest rate by using a weighted average assumption equivalent to the expected term based on the U.S. Treasury constant maturity rate.

•

Expected term - We estimate the expected term of our options based upon historical exercises and post-vesting termination behavior.

•

Expected volatility - We estimate expected volatility using daily historical trading data of a peer group.

•

Dividend yield - We have never paid dividends on our common stock and currently have no plans to do so; therefore, no dividend yield is applied.

The fair values of our employee option awards were estimated using the assumptions below, which yielded the following weighted average grant date fair values for the periods presented:

		2017
Risk-free interest rate		1.85 - 2.13%
Expected option term in years		5.85
Expected volatility		95.4% - 96.6%
Dividend yield		0.00%
Weighted average grant date fair value		$5.82 - $6.36

	Number of Options			Weighted Average Exercise Price		Weighted Average Remaining Contractual Term (in years)		Aggregate Intrinsic Value (in thousands)
Outstanding balance at September 30, 2016		126,000		$	3.52		7.7	$	83.28

Vested and expected to vest at September 30, 2017		31,978		$	5.99		9.1	$	81.89
Exercisable at September 30, 2017		70,167		$	4.37		7.2	$	293.64

The aggregate intrinsic value in the above table is calculated as the difference between the closing price of our common stock at September 30, 2017 of $8.55 per share and the exercise price of the stock options that had strike prices below such closing price.

As of September 30, 2017, there was approximately $71,000 of total unrecognized compensation expense related to the unvested employee stock options, which is expected to be recognized over a weighted average period of 1.2 years.

F-26

The fair values of our non-employee option awards were estimated using the assumptions below, which yielded the following weighted average grant date fair values for the periods presented:

		2017
Risk-free interest rate		2.31% - 2.45%
Expected option term in years		9.00 -10.00
Expected volatility		94.71% - 98.79%
Dividend yield		0.00%
Weighted average grant date fair value		$6.51 - $12.48

Exercisable at September 30, 2017		-	$	-		-	$	-

The aggregate intrinsic value in the above table is calculated as the difference between the closing price of our common stock at September 30, 2017, of $8.55 per share and the exercise price of the stock options that had strike prices below such closing price.

As of September 30, 2017, there was approximately $345,000 of total unrecognized compensation expense related to the unvested stock options, which is expected to be recognized over a weighted average period of 1.8 years.

(B) Restricted Stock

The following table summarizes the status of our employee unvested restricted stock under the Plan for the year ended September 30, 2017:

Granted		25,000	$	8.01
Unvested at September 30, 2017		25,000	$	8.01

As of September 30, 2017, there was approximately $104,000 of total unrecognized compensation cost related to unvested employee restricted stock. The cost is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of approximately 1.0 years. Employee restricted stock granted during the year ended September 30, 2017 had a fair value of $200,000 at the grant date.

As of September 30, 2017, there was approximately $266,000 of total unrecognized compensation cost related to non-employee unvested restricted stock. The cost is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of approximately 2.0 years.

14	COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

(A) Leases

The Company conducts its operations from leased premises. Rental expense on operating leases for the years ended September 30, 2017 and 2016 was approximately $614,000 and $573,000, respectively.

	2021	$45,000

(B) Employment Agreements

The Company has various employment agreements, including employment agreements with the previous owner of Alpha/PCL and key management members of Indco.

15	RISKS AND UNCERTAINTIES

(A) Currency Risks

The nature of Janel's operations requires it to deal with currencies other than the U.S. Dollar. This results in the Company being exposed to the inherent risks of international currency markets and governmental interference. A number of countries where Janel maintains offices or agent relationships have currency control regulations that influence its ability to hedge foreign currency exposure. The Company tries to compensate for these exposures by accelerating international currency settlements among those agents.

F-31

(B) Concentration of Credit Risk

The Company's assets that are exposed to concentrations of credit risk consist primarily of cash and receivables from customers. The Company places its cash with financial institutions that have high credit ratings. The receivables from clients are spread over many customers. The Company maintains an allowance for uncollectible accounts receivable based on expected collectability and performs ongoing credit evaluations of its customers' financial condition.

Janel is occasionally subject to claims and lawsuits which typically arise in the normal course of business. While the outcome of these claims cannot be predicated with certainty, management does not believe that the outcome of any of these legal matters will have a material adverse effect on the Company's financial position or results of operations.

(D) Concentration of Customers

Sales to one major customer were approximately 12% for the year ended September 30, 2017 and sales to one major customer were approximately 10% for the year ended September 30, 2016. Amounts due from these customers aggregated to approximately $1,099,845 and $813,000 at September 30, 2017 and 2016, respectively.
