FLIGHT SAFETY TECHNOLOGIES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARY
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE THREE AND NINE MONTHS ENDED
FEBRUARY 28, 2009 AND FEBRUARY 29, 2008
(Unaudited)

 

Note 1. Basis of Presentation

The interim consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Flight Safety Technologies, Inc. and it's newly formed wholly-owned subsidiary Advanced Plasma Products, Inc. ("APP") and as of January 1, 2009, its recently acquired wholly-owned subsidiary Cummins Family Produce, Inc. ("CFP").

On August 7, 2008, the Company executed a letter of intent with the University of Tennessee Research Foundation (UTRF) for the licensing of patent rights related to atmospheric glow plasma technology. The agreement provides for exclusive worldwide rights to commercialize the technology in all but a few fields of use. The letter of intent provides for an initial license fee of $150,000 payable in shares of common stock of the Company and minimum annual royalty payments starting in year two. Additionally, in a related transaction, on August 28, 2008, Advanced Plasma Products, Inc. purchased the assets of Atmospheric Glow Technologies, Inc., the previous licensee of this technology and a company in bankruptcy. These assets included essential instrument prototypes, engineering drawings, test equipment and a variety of facility related assets. We paid $125,000 in cash and issued 289,436 shares of our common stock valued at $200,000. On September 10, 2008, we concluded our agreement with UTRF and subsequently issued 260,417 shares of our common stock as payment for the license fee.

As of January 1, 2009, we acquired 100% of the outstanding stock of Cummins Family Produce, Inc., a potato packing business located in Idaho. The consideration we provided is the assumption of a bank promissory note in the amount of approximately $204,000 and 20,000 shares Preferred Stock (see note 10) valued at $2 million. Under a performance based earn-out provision, we are obligated to issue an additional number of shares of Preferred Stock, such that the total purchase price is equal to 4.25 times the yearly average earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization calculated over the next two years, less the value of the bank promissory note assumed. Immediately prior to this transaction, CFP executed (a) a 5-year supply agreement with its primary growers who will provide their entire potato harvest to the packing facility and (b) a 5-year lease agreement whereby CFP will lease the packing facility and equipment from the prior owners. We believe that both agreements reflect current pricing in the industry. We have no rights to renew these agreements. See Notes 10 and 11 to our consolidated financial statements for a more detailed explanation of these transactions and for related party information.

 

These interim financial statements for the three and nine-months ended February 28, 2009 and February 28, 2008, included herein, have been prepared, without audit, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the SEC. Results for the periods presented are not necessarily indicative of results for the entire year. In the opinion of management, all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments, which are necessary for a fair statement of operating results for the interim periods have been made. These financial statements do not include all disclosures associated with annual financial statements and, accordingly, should be read in conjunction with our financial statements and related footnotes for the years ended May 31, 2008 and 2007 which are included in our annual report on Form 10-KSB filed on August 29, 2008.

Certain reclassifications have been made to prior interim period balances in order to conform to the current year's presentation.

Note 2. Going Concern and Liquidity

The report of our independent registered public accountant issued in conjunction with our audited financial statements and notes thereto for the year-ended May 31, 2008 indicated that there is substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.

The Company has had recurring losses from operations that have diminished its financial resources. Our liquidity to date has primarily been provided by revenue from government contracts and proceeds from the sale of our equity securities. We have not been successful in securing any additional government funding and we will have to rely on the sale of our equity securities to generate sufficient working capital in order to successfully commercialize our newly acquired technology and to pay for our ongoing operations. As a result of the lack of government funding for our aviation security technologies, we have suspended all related research and develop work. On January 14, 2009, we completed a series of transactions in order to generate recurring cash flow and working capital. See Notes 9 and 10 of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for a full description of the transactions. However, we anticipate that by the end of April 2009, we will need to secure additional working capital financing, until product revenues and cash flow from CFP create a sustainable operation, of which there can be no assurance. However, we cannot predict or estimate the timing or amount of our working capital needs with certainty as the timing and amounts will depend on many variables, such as potential third party development or licensing fees, the pace and success of our product development and sales, and cash generated by the transaction described in Note 10. In the event we are unable to secure additional working capital as and when we need it, we will have to curtail our operations accordingly, thus slowing down our product development and marketing efforts. Any curtailment of our operations could have a material adverse effect on our operations and financial position.

On September 29, 2008, we were delisted from the American Stock Exchange for failure to maintain the required listing standards. We are currently trading on the over-the-counter market under the symbol "FLTS".

 

Note 3. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Use of Estimates In preparing financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles, management is required to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities as of the balance sheet date and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Material estimates that are particularly susceptible to significant change in the near term relate to the carrying values of receivables, inventory, intangible assets, and the calculation of share-based compensation. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Share-Based Compensation: Effective June 1, 2006, the Company adopted the provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 123, "Share-Based Payments (revised 2004)," (SFAS No. 123R) which requires the Company to measure the cost of employee services received in exchange for an award of equity instruments based on the grant date fair value of the award. That cost is recognized over the period during which an employee is required to provide services in exchange for the award, the requisite service period (usually the vesting period). Under SFAS No. 123R, the Company provides an estimate of forfeitures at initial grant date. The Company elected the modified prospective transition method under SFAS 123R and accordingly has not restated periods prior to adoption. The Company recognized compensation expense related to employee stock options of $11,649 and $34,947 for the three and nine months ended February 28, 2009, respectively and $9,749 and $142,224 for the three and nine months ended February 28, 2008, respectively.

The fair value of each option grant is estimated as of the grant date using the Black-Scholes option pricing model. There were no options granted in each of the nine-months ended February 28, 2009 and February 29, 2008, respectively.

Loss Per Share: Basic loss per share is computed by dividing net loss to common shareholders by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. For the interim periods presented the effect of stock options, warrants and convertible preferred stock was anti-dilutive; therefore, they were not included in the computation of diluted loss per share. The number of shares issuable upon the exercise of outstanding stock options, warrants and convertible preferred stock that were excluded from the computation as their effect would be anti-dilutive, were 7,967,875 and 3,953,215 for the nine months ended February 28, 2009 and February 29, 2008, respectively.

Cash and Cash Equivalents: For purposes of reporting cash flows we consider all highly liquid investments with maturities of three months or less at the date of purchase to be cash and cash equivalents.

Revenue and Cost Recognition: Our prior contracts with the United States government and our maritime industry customers are cost-reimbursable contracts that provide for a fixed profit percentage (base fee) applied to our actual costs to complete the work. These contracts are subject to audit and adjustment by our customer, and are subject to cost limitations as provided by the contract and the Federal Acquisition Regulations. The government has audited and accepted our rates through our fiscal year ended May 31, 2006.

For these contracts, revenue is recorded at the time services are performed based upon actual project costs incurred including a reimbursement for general, administrative, and overhead costs and the base fee. The general, administrative, and overhead costs are estimated periodically in accordance with government contract accounting regulations and may change based on actual costs incurred subject to approval. Revenue may be adjusted for our estimate of costs that may be categorized as disputed or unallowable as a result of cost overruns or the audit process.

Project costs include all direct material, labor and subcontracting costs. General and administrative costs are charged to expense as incurred. Provisions for estimated losses on uncompleted contracts are made in the period in which such losses are determined. Changes in job performance, job conditions and estimated profitability and final contract settlements may result in revisions to chargeable costs and revenue recorded and are recognized in the period in which the revisions are determined. Revenue related to additional claims under the contract is recorded at the lesser of actual costs incurred or the amount expected to be realized.

The Company recognizes revenue in accordance with the provision of the Securities and Exchange Commission Staff Accounting Bulletin ("SAB") No. 104 which establishes guidance in applying generally accepted accounting principles to revenue recognition in financial statements. SAB No. 104 requires that four basic criteria must be met before revenue can be recognized: (1) persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists; (2) delivery has occurred or services rendered; (3) the price to the buyer is fixed or determinable; and (4) collectability is reasonably assured.

The Company`s shipping terms are customarily FOB shipping point. Revenues for products sold in the normal course of business are recognized upon shipment when delivery terms are FOB shipping point and all other revenue recognition criteria have been met.

In regards to our newly acquired potato packing business (CFP) the cost of product (the amount we pay to the growers) is determined by subtracting from our selling price previously negotiated packing fees with the respective growers.

Inventory: Inventories consist primarily of a base stock of consumable parts as relates to APP and packing materials and packed and loose potatoes as relates to CFP. Inventories are valued at lower of cost or market as relates to APP and estimated selling price less packing fee as relates to CFP.

Machinery and Equipment: Machinery and equipment are stated at original cost or fair value at the date of acquisition in the case of CFP and Advanced Plasma Products, Inc. less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method. Cost and accumulated depreciation of assets retired or disposed of are removed from the accounts. Gains and losses are recognized upon disposal of assets. The cost of maintenance and repairs is charged to operations as incurred, whereas significant repairs are capitalized.

 

Estimated useful lives by asset class are as follows:

Machinery & equipment          7-10 years
Furniture & fixtures                 10 years
Automobiles                             5 years
Software and computers          3-5 years

Intangible Assets: At February 28, 2009, intangible assets consist of patent costs associated with, AWSM, TIICM™ and atmospheric glow technologies and the value of the supply contract between CFP and certain growers. Acquisition costs related to obtaining new patents are capitalized. Patent costs are being amortized using the straight-line method over the lesser of seventeen years from the date incurred or the remaining life of the underlying patent. The supply contract is being amortized over its five-year term.

In accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 144, "Accounting for Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets" (SFAS 144) the Company assesses its intangible assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate their carrying value may not be recoverable. Such circumstances may include a significant adverse change in legal factors or the business climate that could affect the value of the intangible assets. The Company also considers the likelihood of obtaining required research and development funding in relation to patent valuation. In determining recoverability, the Company must determine the asset's fair value, which may require Management to make significant assumptions about the future cash generating ability of the asset. If an asset is determined to be impaired, the difference between the asset's fair value and book value is charged to expense in the period the impairment is identified. After an impairment loss is recognized, the adjusted carrying amount of the intangible asset becomes its new basis. Subsequent reversal of a previously recognized impairment loss is prohibited under SFAS 144.

Concentration of Credit Risk: The Company had amounts in excess of $250,000 in a single bank during the year. Amounts over $250,000 are not covered by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation. Concentration of credit risk also exists with respect to investment securities and contract receivables. The concentrated risk associated with contract receivables is mitigated by the fact that these receivables are due primarily from the United States Government. The risk for investment securities is mitigated by an Investment Policy which, approved by the Board of Directors, restricts investing in fixed income securities below an "A" rating at the time of purchase and investments in asset backed securities, mortgage backed securities and collateralized mortgage obligations below a "AAA" rating at the time of purchase.

Research and Development: Company sponsored research and development costs, including proposal costs and un-reimbursed expenditures for developmental activities, are charged to operations as incurred.

 

Income Taxes: The Company uses the asset and liability method of accounting for income taxes. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax basis. A valuation allowance is provided on deferred tax assets when it is more likely than not that some portion of the assets will not be realized. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted income 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 period of enactment. Our recent acquisition of CFP will create limitations on the use of our net operating loss carryforwards.

Retirement Savings Plan: Effective July 1, 2004, the Company established a Retirement Savings Plan (the "Plan") under the provisions of Section 401(k) of the Internal Revenue Code. Employees, as defined in the plan, are eligible to participate on their first day of employment. Under the terms of the Plan, the Company can match up to the employee's contribution of 5% of gross pay. The Company matching funds immediately vest 100%. The Company discontinued its match in September 2008.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements: Fair Values of Assets and Liabilities: The Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 157 ("SFAS 157"), Fair Value Measurements, which provides a framework for measuring fair value under generally accepted accounting principles. This Statement became effective for the Company on June 1, 2008 and did not have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements. The Company also adopted SFAS No. 159, The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities, including an amendment of FASB Statement No. 115. SFAS 159 allows an entity the irrevocable option to elect fair value for the initial and subsequent measurement for certain financial assets and liabilities on a contract-by-contract basis. The Company did not elect fair value treatment for any financial assets or liabilities upon adoption. SFAS 159 also became effective for the Company on June 1, 2008 and did not have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements.

In accordance with SFAS 157, the Company groups its financial assets and financial liabilities measured at fair value in three levels, based on the markets in which the assets and liabilities are traded and the reliability of the assumptions used to determine fair value:

Level 1 - Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. Level 1 assets and liabilities include debt and equity securities that are traded in an active exchange market. Valuations are obtained from readily available pricing sources for market transactions involving identical assets or liabilities.

Level 2 - Observable inputs other than Level 1 prices, such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities; quoted prices in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities. For example, Level 2 assets and liabilities may include debt securities with quoted prices that are traded less frequently than exchange-traded instruments or mortgage loans held for sale, for which the fair value is based on what the securitization market is currently offering for mortgage loans with similar characteristics.

Level 3 - Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities. Level 3 assets and liabilities include financial instruments whose value is determined using pricing models, discounted cash flow methodologies, or similar techniques, as well as instruments for which the determination of fair value requires significant management judgment or estimation.

Also, the Company may be required, from time to time, to measure certain other financial assets on a nonrecurring basis in accordance with GAAP. These adjustments to fair value usually result from application of lower-of-cost-or-market accounting or write-downs of individual assets. The Company had no such adjustments as of February 28, 2009.

At May 31, 2008 the investment consisted of an auction market preferred security, valued using Level 2 methodology.

Note 8: Stockholders' Equity

Warrants: As of February 28, 2009 and May 31, 2008, the Company had 0 and 1,919,200 warrants outstanding, respectively, with exercise prices ranging from $3.30 to $5.40 and a weighted average exercise price of $3.49. All of the Company's warrants expired January 29, 2009.

Stock Options: Under the Company's 2005 Stock Incentive Plan, there are 1,470,000 shares available for future awards at February 28, 2009. During the nine-month period ended February 28, 2009, no awards were made and 443,000 shares were cancelled. The weighted average exercise price of the 600,000 options outstanding is $3.50. The aggregate intrinsic value of the outstanding options is $0.

 

As of February 28, 2009 there was $18,400 of total unrecognized compensation cost related to the non-vested stock options that is expected to be expensed over the next 2 fiscal quarters.

Series A Convertible Preferred Stock: Each share of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock ("Preferred Stock") has a liquidating value of $100 per share, is convertible into 1,429 shares of Common Stock of the Company (subject to adjustment) and pays a cash dividend of 8% or a dividend in kind of 10%. The dividends are paid quarterly and are based on the original purchase price of the Preferred Stock. No dividends will accrue or be paid for any fiscal quarter where shares of our common stock, on a volume weighted average price, trade in excess of $0.14. Initially, each share of Preferred Stock will have the equivalent voting rights of 1,429 shares of common stock and will vote with our existing common shareholders as a group on all matters subject to shareholder vote. However, the Preferred Stock shareholders will not be able to vote on issues involving redemption or a liquidation event until there has been an affirmative vote on such issues by our common stock shareholders. In that event, they will be allowed to vote as a group with the common stock shareholders on such issues, in effect, giving them a veto right. In the event of a liquidation of the Company, the Preferred Stock will have a liquidating preference and will participate in any remaining liquidating proceeds on an as-converted basis with the common shareholders after receiving the liquidating value of their Preferred Stock. Each share of Preferred Stock is convertible at the option of the holder at any time into shares of our common stock by dividing the liquidation value of $100 by a conversion price of $0.07 per share of common stock. The number of shares of common stock issuable upon conversion is subject to antidilution protections if we issue additional shares of common stock at less than $0.07 per share and upon stock splits, dividends and certain other events. Reference is made to the Certificate of Designation for a complete description of the terms of the Preferred Stock. We will not register the shares of Preferred Stock or shares of common stock into which it may be converted with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission so as to make them eligible for publicly trading, and have no obligation or plans to do so in the future. Such shares will only be eligible to be sold or traded pursuant to the requirements of Rule 144, promulgated by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, and applicable state securities laws.

Note 9: Sale Of Shares Of Preferred Stock

During the period January 13, 2009 through January 26, 2009, we sold 4,400 shares of our Preferred Stock for $100 per share to a group of investors (the "Investors") raising an aggregate of $440,000 of equity for working capital purposes. Participating in this transaction are our two senior executives and three key employees (together "Employees"). The Employees purchased an aggregate amount of $100,000 of Preferred Stock. Four of these employees purchased shares with a 20% cash payment and by executing a non-interest bearing promissory note payable semimonthly with a maturity date of March 31, 2009. One of these employees purchased shares with an 8% cash payment and by executing a non-interest bearing promissory note payable semimonthly with a maturity date of October 31, 2009. These notes are nonrecourse and collateralized solely by the employee's Preferred Stock. The Preferred Stock sold herewith, is convertible at $0.07 per share into a total of 6,285,714 shares of the Company's common stock, significantly diluting our existing common stock shareholders. We agree to indemnify Investors against damages they may suffer in the event of our breach of certain representations and warranties we have made. Reference is made to the Certificate and the Investor Purchase Agreement for a complete description of the terms of the Preferred Stock. The net proceeds were used for general working capital purposes.

Note 10: Acquisition Of CFP With Shares Of Preferred Stock

Pursuant to a Purchase Agreement dated as of January 13, 2009 (the "CFP Purchase Agreement"), the Company acquired from the Cummins Family Limited Partnership, an Idaho limited partnership (the "Purchaser"), 100% of the outstanding stock of Cummins Family Produce, Inc., ("CFP") a potato packing business located in Idaho. The general partner and majority limited partner of the Purchaser is Cummins Family Holdings, LLC, an Idaho limited liability company controlled by Mr. Wes Cummins, a director of the Company. In exchange, the Company assumed a bank promissory note in the amount of approximately $204,000 owed by Mr. Cummins in connection with the operations of CFP and issued 20,000 shares Preferred Stock valued at $2 million. Under a performance based earn-out provision, the Company is obligated to issue an additional number of shares of Preferred Stock, such that the total purchase price is equal to 4.25 times the yearly average earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization, calculated over the next two years, less the value of the bank promissory note assumed. Immediately prior to this transaction, CFP executed (a) a 5-year supply agreement with Southern Slope, Inc., and Black Rock Ag., Inc. (together the "Growers") who will provide their entire potato harvest to the packing facility and (b) a 5-year lease agreement whereby CFP will lease the packing facility and equipment from Cummins Family Holdings, LLC. The Company believes that both agreements reflect current pricing in the industry. The Company has no rights to renew these agreements. Mr. Cummins is a majority shareholder in Southern Slope, Inc. and family members of his are the majority shareholders in Black Rock Ag., Inc. The Preferred Stock initially issued to the Purchaser in regard to this transaction is convertible at $0.07 per share into a total of 28,571,429 shares of our common stock and has substantially diluted our existing common shareholders. As a result of this transaction, Mr. Cummins will control over 60% of the voting shares of the Company.

In the CFP Purchase Agreement, the Company agreed to indemnify the Purchaser against damages it may suffer in the event of our breach of certain representations and warranties the Company has made in that Agreement. The Purchaser also has agreed to indemnify the Company against damages in the event of breaches in representations and warranties it has made relating to CFP and the Purchaser.

This acquisition was accounted for under the purchase method of accounting with results of operations for CFP included in our results beginning January 1, 2009. Under the purchase method of accounting, the assets and liabilities of CFP were recorded at their respective fair values as of January 1, 2009.

 

The following condensed balance sheet of CFP discloses the amounts assigned to each major asset and liability caption at the acquisition date. The allocation of the final purchase price is subject to adjustment based upon future EBITDA and as additional information becomes available.

CFP was formed in May 2008 in connection with the acquisition of a previously existing, potato packing and trucking business that was family owned and managed. During the period prior to the acquisition by CFP, the acquired business engaged in several significant transactions amongst its shareholders and other related parties that may not have been at arms-length. Further, we believe that historical financial statements of CFP and its predecessor prior to our acquisition of CFP would not be indicative of the operations of the ongoing business that we acquired due to the restructuring and streamlining of operations that occurred subsequent to May 2008. As a result, we believe that we cannot prepare audited financial statements. Had we been able to conduct an audit of the acquired business's historical financial statements, potential adjustments to the amounts included above may have come to our attention.

 

Note 11: Related Party Transactions and Change in Control

Mr. Wesley Cummins, a director and shareholder of the Company, holds a controlling interest in Cummins Family Limited Partnership, Cummins Family Holdings, LLC and Southern Slope, Inc. Mr. Wesley Cummins' family members hold a controlling interest in Black Rock Ag., Inc. Amounts due from Southern Slope, Inc. at February 28, 2009 are $4,584 and are included in customer receivables on the consolidated balance sheet. Amounts due to Southern Slope, Inc. and Black Rock Ag, Inc. under the supply agreement at February 29, 2009 amount to $1,207,944 and are included in accounts payable on the consolidated balance sheet.

Mr. James Schwartz, a director of the Company, is the managing member of Harvey Partners, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company that is the manager of Harvey SMidCap Fund LP, a Delaware limited partnership, and Harvey SMidCap Offshore Fund, Ltd., a Cayman Islands exempted company, which participated in the Preferred Stock offering.

Mr. Kenneth Wood, President and Chief Executive Officer and a director of the Company participated in the Preferred Stock offering.

Mr. Richard S. Rosenfeld, Chief Financial Officer, Vice president of Operations, Secretary/Treasurer participated in the Preferred Stock offering.

As a result of these transactions, Mr. Wesley Cummins now exercises or controls in excess of 60% of the voting power of the Company.

This change in control will also create limitations to the use of the Company's existing net operating tax loss carryforwards.

Note 12: Segment Information

Information regarding segments is presented in accordance with SFAS 131, "Disclosures about Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information." Based on the criteria outlined in SFAS 131, the Company's operations are classified into two reportable business segments as described below.

Advanced Plasma Products, Inc. (APP): APP has exclusive proprietary rights to a series of patents relating to One Atmospheric Uniform Glow Discharge Plasma (OAUGDP®) technology, and the rights to develop products and capabilities based upon this technology.

Overview

We have four basic developmental technologies, all in the field of aviation security that we were pursuing. These technologies were substantially funded by government contracts. We have been unsuccessful in securing additional funding for these projects, and at May 31, 2008 decided to suspend all efforts on them.

In an effort to reduce our reliance on our aviation security technologies, we have undertaken an effort to identify potential diversifying, technology-based acquisitions to enhance shareholder value and provide better opportunity for profitable operations. To that end, through our wholly owned subsidiary, Advanced Plasma Products, Inc. ("APP"), which is a Nevada corporation, we have licensed patent rights from the University of Tennessee Research Foundation relating to atmospheric glow plasma technology. In addition, APP acquired the key assets from the previous licensee of that technology, hired some of its key employees, and secured a lease on its former facility. We believe that this technology has been advanced to the stage where several products can be commercialized and released to the market within two years.

Atmospheric glow discharge plasma is a technology that produces tailored plasma gas chemistry for a wide range of applications such as air purification, materials processing, decontamination, sterilization and many others. We believe these applications can create market opportunities that cover homeland security, health care, process control, and environmental protection, remediation and control.

Effective January 1, 2009, we acquired a 100% interest in Cummins Family Produce, Inc. ("CFP"), a potato packing facility in Idaho. We consider our acquisition of CFP strictly as a financial transaction by which we intend to procure cash flow from CFP over a five year period that will help support development, marketing and sales of our atmospheric glow plasma technology. As we have previously indicated, we need approximately $2.5 million over a period of time in order to execute our business plan with respect to the acquired atmospheric glow plasma technology. It became apparent that we would not be able to raise that amount of equity in a single transaction as a result of the deterioration of our financial condition, the delisting from Amex, the decline of our share price and the current state of the financial markets. Our management and directors therefore explored other means to provide the needed capital.

On January 14, 2009, we completed the sale of $440,000 of our Series A Convertible Preferred Stock. The cash provided by our sale of this Preferred Stock provides us with the initial capital to continue product development and start sales and marketing effort in our plasma business. We anticipate the cash provided by the CFP packing facility acquisition will supplement the initial capital as well as continue to supplement our monthly cash needs into our fourth fiscal quarter that began March 1, 2009 so as to enable us to continue to operate and enable our wholly owned subsidiary, APP, to continue to develop the atmospheric plasma glow technology. However, we anticipate that by the end of April 2009, we will need to secure additional working capital financing, until product revenues and cash flow from the packing facility create a sustainable operation of which there can be no assurance. However, we cannot predict or estimate the timing or amount of our working capital needs, with certainty as the timing and amounts will depend on many variables, such as potential third party development or licensing fees, the pace and success of our product development and sales, and cash generated by CFP. In the event we are unable to secure additional working capital as and when we need it, we will have to curtail our operations accordingly, thus slowing down our product development and marketing efforts. Any curtailment of our operations could have a material adverse effect on our operations and financial position.

The report of our independent registered public accountant issued in conjunction with our audited financial statements and notes thereto for the year-ended May 31, 2008 indicated that there is substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. We have had recurring losses from operations that have greatly diminished our financial resources. Our liquidity to date has primarily been provided by revenue from government contracts and proceeds from the sale of its equity securities. Because we have not been successful in securing any additional government funding for development of our aviation security technologies, it became apparent that we needed to rely on the sale of equity securities and/or some type of financial transaction in order to generate sufficient working capital to successfully commercialize our newly acquired plasma gas technology and to pay for ongoing operations. In Item 5 of this Report on Form 10-Q, we described certain transactions we closed on January 14, 2009 which partially fill our need for working capital.

On September 29, 2008, we were delisted from the American Stock Exchange for failure to maintain the required listing standards. Our shares of common stock currently trade on the over-the-counter market under the symbol "FLTS".

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

The discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations are based on our financial statements that have been prepared according to accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. In preparing these financial statements, we are required to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses and related disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities. We evaluate these estimates on an on-going basis. We base these estimates on historical experiences and on various other assumptions that we believe are reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions. Our management has discussed these estimates and assumptions with our finance and audit committee. Subjective judgments may have a material impact on our financial statements, including the valuation of inventory and intangible assets.

Federal Acquisitions Regulations require that, among other things, our reimbursable costs are reasonable. We have analyzed our actual overhead rate and general administrative rate for the fiscal year ended May 31, 2008. We believe all component costs have been ordinary and necessary but that government auditors may consider some of our selling, general and administrative expenses for the fiscal year ended May 31, 2008 unreasonable for a company our size. The government has audited and accepted our rates through our fiscal year ended May 31, 2006. Since there is a degree of subjectivity in the judgment of what levels of cost are reasonable, we can make no assurance that the government will not require further adjustments.

Results of Operations

Revenues: Revenues for the three months ended February 28, 2009 and February 29, 2008 were $1,531,804 and $125,885, respectively. The increase of $1,405,919 consisted primarily of revenues of $1,527,604 from CFP which was acquired as of January 1, 2009 offset by the decrease in revenues in our APP segment of $121,685. Revenues in our APP segment came primarily from our hydrodynamic software development contracts issued by companies in the maritime industry. As of November 30, 2008, we terminated these contracts as the software developer who worked on them resigned.

Revenues for the nine months ended February 28, 2009 and February 29, 2008 were $1,669,517 and $247,230, respectively. The increase of $1,422,287 consisted primarily of revenues of $1,527,604 from CFP, offset by the decrease in revenues of $105,317 from our hydrodynamic software development contracts, discussed above.

Cost of revenues: Cost of revenues for the three months ended February 28, 2009 and February 29, 2008 were $1,322,812 and $31,269, respectively. The increase of $1,291,543 is attributable to costs of $1,320,632 associated with CFP revenues offset by reduced costs of the remaining business segment of $29,089 associated with its reduced revenues.

Cost of revenues for the nine months ended February 28, 2009 and February 29, 2008 were $1,383,848 and $109,285, respectively. The increase of $1,247,563 is attributable to costs of $1,320,632 associated with CFP revenues offset by reduced costs of the remaining business segment of $73,069 associated with its reduced revenues.

Selling, general and administrative expenses: Selling, general and administrative expenses for the three months ended February 28, 2009 and February 29, 2008 were $449,364 and $791,777, respectively. The decrease of $342,413 is attributable to reduced total corporate expenses of $505,065 partially offset by aggregate expenses of APP and CFP of $162,652. In the 2009 three-month reporting period we did not incur 2008 reporting period incurred expenses relating to share-based compensation, legal and litigation settlement of approximately $290,000, and business development, lobbying and fund raising activities of approximately $145,000, in addition to reduced personnel and related costs.

Selling, general and administrative expenses for the nine months ended February 28, 2009 and February 29, 2008 were $1,214,900 and $2,349,685, respectively. The decrease of $1,134,785 is attributable to reduced total corporate expenses of $1,390,303 partially offset by aggregate expenses of APP and CFP of $255,518. In the 2009 nine-month reporting period we did not incur the 2008 reporting period incurred expenses relating to share-based compensation, legal and litigation settlement costs of approximately $750,000, business development, lobbying and fund raising activities of approximately $450,000 with the balance attributable to reduced personnel and related costs.

Depreciation and amortization: Depreciation and amortization expense for the three months ended February 28, 2009 and February 29, 2008 was $105,190, $27,250, respectively. For the nine months ended February 28, 2009 and February 29, 2008 the expense was $131,131 and $81,750, respectively. For both periods the increases were attributable to the amortization of intangible assets attributable to the CFP and APP acquisitions, offset by reduced depreciation and amortization relating to the aviation related technologies.

Research and development: Research and development expenses for the three months ended February 28, 2009 and February 29, 2008 was $84,903, and $36,373, respectively. For the nine months ended February 28, 2009 and February 29, 2008 the expense was $175,629 and $230,133, respectively. The increase of $48,530 in the three month period was attributable to APP's plasma development expenses of $84,993 offset by the suspension of work on the aviation related technologies. The decrease of $54,504 in the nine month period was attributable to the suspension of work on the aviation related technologies offset by plasma research and development expenses of $152,597.

Other income: Other income for the nine month period ending February 28, 2009 relates to the disposition of several vehicles and surplus equipment.

Interest income, net: Interest income, net for the three and nine months ended February 28, 2009 decreased as a result of the reduction in cash available for investment in interest bearing investments and accounts and interest on debt attributable to the CFP acquisition.

Provision for income taxes: The tax provision relates to Idaho state income tax on CFP results.

Dividends on preferred stock: Preferred stock dividends were accrued from date of receipt of investors' funds through the end of our fiscal quarter. The dividends are anticipated to be paid in kind and not in cash.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

The report of our independent registered public accountant issued in conjunction with our audited financial statements and notes thereto for the year-ended May 31, 2008 indicated that there is substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. Our sources of liquidity have been primarily from government contracts and equity financings. We have undertaken several actions to mitigate the liquidity issue. We have suspended all research and development activities on our related aviation technologies, as we currently do not have the funds to continue such efforts. In the event third party funding becomes available for this effort we will re-evaluate the resumption of such activities. In addition, our maritime contracts were terminated as a result of the resignation of the employee who specialized in such research and development. The maritime contracts were the Company's sole source of revenue in all periods presented. This lack of funding has had an adverse impact on our ability to develop our current aviation and security related technologies. As a result we have undertaken to diversify our technology base by identifying other technologies to reduce our reliance on our current technologies.

As a result of this diversification effort, on September 10, 2008, we finalized our licensing agreement with the University of Tennessee Research Foundation for the licensing of patent rights related to atmospheric glow plasma technology. The agreement provides for exclusive worldwide rights to commercialize the technology in all but a few fields of use. The payment for the UTRF license agreement consists of our issuance of 260,417 shares of our common stock to UTRF and on-going royalties which we believe are generally in line with the market for this type of license. The UTRF license agreement is filed as Exhibit 10.6 to this Report on Form 10-Q without certain information proprietary to UTRF that it has required us to redact. We believe this technology can be applied to produce products used for, among other things, the sterilization or cleaning of a wide variety of objects and substances, such as medical instruments and air. Commercialization of this technology will require final product development and for certain applications may require regulatory approval. Additionally, in a related transaction on August 28, 2008, we purchased the assets of the previous licensee of this technology. These assets included essential instrument prototypes, engineering drawings, test equipment and a variety of facility related assets. The payment to the prior licensee for the assets was $125,000 cash and $200,000 paid by the issuance of 289,436 shares of our common stock. We have also hired two senior executives to manage the newly acquired technology and oversee the overall growth plan for the Company, due to their experience in growing early stage companies. As of September 2008, we started incurring additional operating costs relating to this new business. The Company's previous senior management had since resigned.

To develop products under the licensed technology and bring products to market, we estimate that we will require approximately $2.5 million of new working capital. We are looking to obtain this working capital with proceeds from one or more private placements of our securities, some type of financial transaction or a combination of both. On January 14, 2009, we completed a series of transactions in order to generate a portion of the required additional working capital, including the acquisition of a potato packing business located in Idaho known as Cummins Family Produce Inc., an Idaho corporation. Reference is made to Notes 1, 9 and 10 to the consolidated financial statements herein, and to Item 5 of this Report on Form 10-Q, where we describe these transactions and their anticipated impact on us and we refer the reader to Item 5 which must be read as a continuation of this discussion of our liquidity and capital resources.

Item 3. Qualitative and Quantitative Disclosures About Market Risk

Not applicable.

Item 4. Controls and procedures

a)   The Company's Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have evaluated the effectiveness of the Company's disclosure controls and procedures (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-14(c) and 15d-14(c) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act") as of the end of the period covered by this Form 10-Q (the "Evaluation Date"). Based on such evaluation, such officers has concluded that, as of the Evaluation Date, 1) the Company's disclosure controls and procedures are effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Company in reports the Company files under the Securities Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the rules and forms of the SEC and 2) the Company's disclosure controls and procedures are effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the reports that the Company files or submits under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our chief executive officer and chief financial officer, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

c)   Changes in Internal Controls. Effective September 2, 2008, the Company hired a new Chief Financial Officer. However, we do not believe that this will have a material affect on our internal control over financial reporting. CFP, acquired as of January 1, 2009, has its own industry specific accounting and financial reporting software package managed by its own accounting department. Its financial results and financial position are incorporated into the Company's overall control environment. There has been no change in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during our most recent fiscal quarter that has materially affected or is reasonably likely to materially affect our internal control over financial reporting.

Item 1A: Risk Factors

The following discussion supplements the discussion of the Company's known trends, risks and uncertainties contained in the Company's Annual Report filed on form 10-KSB for the year-ended May 31, 2008.

RISKS RELATING TO CONTINUATION OF OUR BUSINESS

To develop products under the licensed technology and bring products to market, we estimate that we will require approximately $2.5 million of new working capital. We are looking to obtain this working capital with proceeds from one or more private placements of our securities, some type of financial transaction or a combination of both. On January 14, 2009, we completed a series of transactions in order to generate additional working capital. See Item 5 in this Form 10-Q for a full description of the transactions and Notes 1, 9 and 10 to the financial statements presented herein. However, we anticipate that by the end of April 2009, we will need to seek additional working capital financing until product revenues and cash flow from CFP create a sustainable operation. We cannot predict or estimate the timing or amounts of our working capital needs with certainty as the timing and amounts will depend on many variables, such as potential third party development or licensing fees, the pace and success of our product development and sales, and cash generated the by the transactions described in Item 5and Note 10. In the event we are unable to secure additional working capital as and when we need it, we will have to curtail our operations accordingly, thus slowing down our product development and marketing efforts. Any curtailment of our operations could have a material adverse effect on our operations and financial position.

Risks Related to Our Business

CONTINUING OPERATING LOSSES

We have a history of incurring significant operating losses, including an operating loss of $1,213,729 for the nine-months ended February 28, 2009. We anticipate that we will continue to incur operating losses until such time as we are able to successfully commercialize our newly licensed technology. However, we can provide no assurances as to when, if ever, we will achieve operating profits or if we do, that we will be able to sustain such profitability and at what level of profitability.

OUR SUCCESS DEPENDS ON OUR SUCCESSFUL COMMERCIALIZATION OF THE ATMOSPHERIC GLOW PLASMA TECHNOLOGY

Our future success will depend on our ability to execute our operating plan to commercialize our newly acquired atmospheric glow plasma technology. On September 2, 2008 we organized a wholly owned subsidiary named Advanced Plasma Products, Inc. ("APP") to develop our 'plasma products line of business. APP has no history of operations or experience in commercialization of technology. We believe that our new senior management will be able to provide the necessary expertise to manage the commercialization of the technology, including the identification, acquisition and retention of the necessary resources. However, we estimate we will need approximately $2.5 million of working capital to execute our operating plan. There can be no assurances that we will be successful in obtaining this working capital at all or in a timely manner.

GOVERNMENT APPROVAL OF OUR PRODUCTS

Certain markets to be targeted by APP will require that our products receive governmental approval before they can be offered for sale. There can be no assurances that we will be able to secure such governmental approval or that we can get such governmental approval on a timely basis to take advantage of market conditions.

LOSS OF KEY PERSONNEL

The future success of APP depends to a significant degree on the skills, experience and efforts of Messrs. Wood and Rosenfeld and certain key employees of APP and of the Company. The loss of any one or more of those individuals for any reason could have a material adverse impact on the operations of APP and the Company. We anticipate hiring additional expertise so as to minimize this risk, but will be unable to do so until we have raised sufficient working capital. However, there is no assurance that we will be able to hire the additional expertise or be able to do so in a timely manner.

SUCCESSFUL SALES AND MARKETING

The sales and marketing of our products will require us to find additional capable employees or distributors and manufacturer's representatives, who can understand, explain, market, and sell our technology and products to our targeted markets. We may not be successful in attracting, integrating, motivating or retaining new personnel for this effort.

SUCCESSFUL PRODUCTION

We also will need to assemble new personnel for the production of our products or identify an outside manufacturer for the production of our products. These demands will require us to rapidly increase the number of our employees, vendors, and subcontractors. There is intense competition for capable personnel in all of these areas, and we may not be successful in attracting, integrating, motivating, or retaining new personnel, vendors, or subcontractors for these required functions.

SIGNIFICANT COMPETITION

In many of our targeted markets, we may face significant competition in areas such as price, performance, perceived value, product recognition and availability of financial resources. Our strategy will be to design and position our products so that we can overcome these risks. However, we cannot guarantee that we will be able to overcome any or all of these competitive issues.

ACQUISITIONS COULD DISRUPT OUR BUSINESS

We may attempt to acquire businesses or technologies that we believe are a strategic or financial fit with our business. Any future acquisitions may result in unforeseen operating difficulties and expenditures and may absorb significant management attention. Since we may not be able to accurately predict these difficulties and expenditures, these costs may outweigh the value we realize from a future acquisition. Future acquisitions could result in issuances of equity securities that would reduce our stockholders' ownership interest.

Risks Related to Investment in Our Securities

RISKS RELATING TO PENNY STOCKS

On September 29, 2008 our securities were delisted from the American Stock Exchange because we were unable to meet the continuing listing requirements relating to minimum stockholders' equity, share price and our history of continuing losses. Our share price was $.20 at the time our delisting. Securities trading below $5.00 per share are subject to the requirements of certain rules promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. These rules require additional disclosure by broker-dealers in connection with any trades involving a security defined as a penny stock and impose various sales practice requirements on broker-dealers who sell penny stocks to persons other than established customers and accredited investors, generally institutions. The additional burdens imposed upon broker-dealers by such requirements may discourage broker-dealers from effecting transactions in our securities, which could severely limit the market price and liquidity of such securities and the ability of purchasers to sell our securities in the secondary market. A penny stock is defined generally as any non-exchange listed equity security that has a market price of less than $5.00 per share, subject to certain exceptions. Shares of our common stock are now trading over-the-counter.

RISKS RELATING TO SHAREHOLDER DILUTION

We have indicated that we need to raise an additional approximately $2.5 million dollars in working capital. The transactions we describe in Item 5 to this Report on Form 10-Q result in substantial dilution to our shareholders. With the trading range of the share price of our common stock between approximately $.02 and $.05, any future issuance of securities will significantly dilute the position of current shareholders.

YOU SHOULD CAREFULLY READ AND EVALUATE THIS ENTIRE FORM 10-Q AND OUR CURRENT SEC FILINGS INCLUDING THE RISKS IT DESCRIBES AND NOT CONSIDER OR RELY UPON ANY STATEMENT OR OPINION ABOUT US THAT IS NOT CONTAINED IN THIS FORM 10-Q AND OUR CURRENT SEC FILINGS.

Certain statements, information and opinions about us have appeared and may continue to appear in published news reports, analysts' reports, other media sources and our web site. Some of the information contained in these reports or sources may not be material to understanding our business or may be out of date, erroneous or inconsistent with that disclosed in this Form 10-Q and our current SEC filings. In making a decision to invest in our securities, you should not rely upon any of these statements , information or opinions and should only rely upon, consider and carefully evaluate the information and risks contained I this Form 10-Q and our current SEC filings.

DESCRIPTION OF SERIES A CONVERTIBLE PREFERRED STOCK

On December 16, 2008, we filed with the Nevada Secretary of State a Certificate of Designations of the Powers, Preferences and Relative, Participating, Optional and Other Special Rights of Preferred Stock and Qualifications, Limitations and Restrictions Thereof of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock (the "Certificate") designating a Series A Convertible Preferred Stock ("Preferred Stock"), par value $0.001 per share. Each share of Preferred Stock has a liquidating value of $100 per share, is convertible into 1,429 shares of Common Stock of the Company (subject to adjustment) and pays a cash dividend of 8% or a dividend in kind of 10%. The dividends are paid quarterly and are based on the original purchase price of the Preferred Stock. No dividends will accrue or be paid for any fiscal quarter where shares of our common stock, on a volume weighted average price, trade in excess of $0.14. Initially, each share of Preferred Stock will have the equivalent voting rights of 1,429 shares of our common stock and will vote with our existing common shareholders as a group on all matters subject to shareholder vote. However, the Preferred Stock shareholders will not be able to vote on issues involving redemption or a liquidation event until there has been an affirmative vote on such issues by our common stock shareholders. In that event, they will be allowed to vote as a group with our common stock shareholders on such issues, in effect, giving them a veto right. In the event of a liquidation of our assets, the Preferred Stock will have a liquidating preference and will participate in any remaining liquidating proceeds on an as-converted basis with our common shareholders after receiving the liquidating value of their Preferred Stock. Each share of Preferred Stock is convertible at the option of the holder at any time into shares of our common stock by dividing the liquidity value of $100 by a conversion price of $0.07 per share of common stock. The number of shares of common stock issuable upon conversion is subject to antidilution protections if we issue additional shares of common stock at less than $0.07 per share and upon stock splits, dividends and certain other events. The preceding description of the Preferred Stock is qualified in all respects by and reference is made to the Certificate which is filed as Exhibit 10.1 on our Form 10-Q which was filed January 16, 2009, for a complete description of the terms of the Preferred Stock.

We will not register the shares of Preferred Stock or shares of common stock into which it may be converted with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission so as to make them eligible for publicly trading, and have no obligation or plans to do so in the future. Such shares will only be eligible to be sold or traded pursuant to the requirements of Rule 144, promulgated by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, and applicable state securities laws.

SALE OF SHARES OF PREFERRED STOCK TO INVESTORS

On January 13, 2009, we entered into a Purchase Agreement (the "Investor Purchase Agreement"), pursuant to which on January 14, 2009 we sold and issued 4,400 shares of Preferred Stock for $100 per share to a group of investors (the "Investors") in order to raise an aggregate of $440,000 of equity for working capital purposes. Participating in this transaction are our two senior executives and three key employees (together "employees"). Payment was made in the form of cash at closing, except for the employees who purchased an aggregate amount of $100,000 of Preferred Stock. Four of these employees purchased shares with a 20% cash payment at closing and by executing a non-interest bearing promissory note payable semimonthly with a maturity date of March 31, 2009. One of these employees purchased shares with an 8% cash payment at closing and execute a non-interest bearing promissory note payable semimonthly with a maturity date of October 31, 2009. These notes are nonrecourse and collateralized solely by the employee's Preferred Stock. As of April 7, 2009, the notes due March 31, 2009 have been paid in full.

The Preferred Stock sold herewith, is convertible at $0.07 per share into a total of 6,285,714 shares of the Company's common stock, and significantly dilutes our existing common stock shareholders.

In the Investor Purchase Agreement, we agree to indemnify investors against damages they may suffer as a result of our breach of certain representations and warranties we have made in that Agreement.

The preceding description is qualified in all respects by and reference is made to, the Certificate and the Investor Purchase Agreement, respectively filed as Exhibits 10.1 and 10.2 on our Form 10-Q which was filed January 16, 2009.

SALE OF SHARES OF PREFERRED STOCK TO ACQUIRE NEW BUSINESS

On January 13, 2009, we entered into a Purchase Agreement (the "CFP Purchase Agreement"), pursuant to which on January 14, 2009 we sold and issued 20,000 shares of Preferred Stock for $100 per share to Cummins Family Limited Partnership, an Idaho limited partnership (the "Purchaser"). The Purchaser conveyed and transferred to us 100% of the outstanding stock of Cummins Family Produce, Inc., ("CFP") a potato packing business located in Idaho. The general partner and majority limited partner of the Purchaser is Cummins Family Holdings, LLC, an Idaho limited liability company controlled by Mr. Wes Cummins, a director of the Company. The consideration we provided to the Purchaser also includes CFP's assumption of a bank promissory note in the amount of approximately $211,000 incurred and owed by Mr. Cummins in connection with the operations of CFP. Under a performance based earn-out provision, we are obligated to issue an additional number of shares of Preferred Stock, such that the total purchase price is equal to 4.25 times the yearly average EBITDA of CFP calculated over the next two years, less the value of the bank promissory note assumed.

Just prior to the closing of this transaction, CFP executed (a) a 5-year supply agreement with Southern Slope, Inc., and Black Rock Ag., Inc. (together the "Growers") who will provide their potato harvest to the potato packing facility operated by CFP and (b) a 5-year lease agreement whereby CFP will lease the packing facility and equipment from Cummins Family Holdings, LLC, an Idaho limited liability company, which is controlled by Mr. Cummins. We believe that both agreements reflect current pricing in the industry. We have no rights to renew these agreements. Mr. Cummins is a majority shareholder in Southern Slope, Inc. and family members of his are the majority shareholders in Black Rock Ag., Inc.

The Preferred Stock initially issued to the Purchaser in regard to this transaction is convertible at $0.07 per share into a total of 28,571,429 shares of our common stock and substantially dilutes our existing common shareholders. As a result of this transaction, Mr. Cummins will control over 60% of our voting shares.

In the CFP Purchase Agreement, we agree to indemnify the Purchaser against damages it may suffer as a result of our breach of certain representations and warranties we have made in that Agreement. The Purchaser also has agreed to indemnify us against damages that may result if it breaches certain representations and warranties it has made relating to CFP and the Purchaser.

The preceding description is qualified in all respects by and reference is made to, the Certificate, CFP Purchase Agreement, the Supply Agreement and the Lease Agreement, respectively filed as Exhibits 10.1, 10.3, 10.4 and 10.5 hereto, for a complete description of the terms of the CFP transactions.

 

DESCRIPTION OF NEW BUSINESS

Independent potato growers generally do not take their product directly to market. They contract with packers, such as Cummins Family Produce, Inc., the company we have acquired, which charges a packing fee to clean, grade, pack, and sell the potatoes to end users in the specific packing configurations requested by the customer. We believe the commodity risk to CFP is mitigated in that the amount it will pay to the grower generally will be the difference between the sales price of the potatoes to the customer and the packing fee paid to CFP. The more potatoes that CFP can bring into its operation and the better the quality of the potato, the more packing revenue it can generate. This operation is highly automated and we believe can handle significant growth in its business without additional capital outlays, by extending or adding additional shifts of processing labor. We anticipate that this business can generate between $700,000 and $900,000 of free cash flow per year, as currently configured, although realization of revenue will depend on many factors and we can make no assurance as to the ultimate amount of revenue or cash flow that CFP will generate for us.

Our basic goal is to acquire cash flow, not hard assets, that CFP generates over a five year period, since the facility and equipment for the packing operation are being leased to us under a five (5) year lease and we have no renewal rights. CFP has four full time salaried employees and approximately twenty hourly employees. We anticipate that all current employees of CFP will remain with CFP.

RATIONALE FOR ACQUISTION OF NEW BUSINESS

We consider our acquisition of CFP strictly as a financial transaction by which we intend to procure cash flow from CFP over a five year period that will support development, marketing and sales of the atmospheric glow plasma technology we licensed from the University of Tennessee Research Foundation. As we have previously indicated, we need approximately $2.5 million over a period of time in order to execute our business plan with respect to the acquired atmospheric glow plasma technology. It became apparent that we would not be able to raise that amount of equity in a single transaction as a result of the deterioration of our financial condition, the delisting from Amex, the decline of our share price and the current state of the financial markets. Our management and directors therefore explored other means to provide the needed capital.

The cash provided by our sale of $440,000 of Preferred Stock will provide us with the initial capital to continue product development and start sales and marketing effort in our plasma business. We anticipate the cash provided by the CFP packing facility acquisition will supplement the initial capital as well as continue to supplement our monthly cash needs into our fourth fiscal quarter that begins March 1, 2009 so as to enable us to continue to operate and enable our wholly owned subsidiary, APP, to continue to develop the atmospheric plasma glow technology. However, we anticipate that by the end of April 2009, we will need to secure additional working capital financing, until product revenues and cash flow from the packing facility create a sustainable operation. We cannot predict or estimate the timing or amount of our working capital needs with certainty as the timing and amounts will depend on many variables, such as potential third party development or licensing fees, the pace and success of our product development and sales, and cash generated by CFP. In the event we are unable to secure additional working capital as and when we need it, we will have to curtail our operations accordingly, thus slowing down our product development and marketing efforts. Any curtailment of our operations could have a material adverse effect on our operations and financial position.

OTHER ISSUANCES OF SHARES OF OUR COMMON STOCK

To complete the licensing of the atmospheric glow technology, we issued 260,417 shares of our unregistered common stock to UTRF on January 7, 2009.

CERTAIN RISK FACTORS

CFP acquired its packing business in May, 2008. As part of its diligence, our management has visited the operations of CFP and reviewed its books and records and unaudited financial statements. CFP has only been in operation since May 2008 and does not have audited financial statements.

Because of cash constraints, we have not received a third party evaluation or fairness opinion on the foregoing transactions. Our management and board of directors has evaluated and discussed these transactions both with the input of Mr. Cummins and outside of his presence, and in view of the alternatives, believe they are fair and in the best interests of our shareholders. Mr. Cummins recused himself from all director votes required to approve these transactions.

In addition to the risks described above and those set forth in our Annual Report of Form 10-KSB for the year ended May 31, 2008 and in our quarterly report of Form 10-Q for the quarter ended August 31, 2008, which are hereby incorporated by reference, there will be other risks associated with our acquisition of CFP such as:

1.     Falling demand for potatoes
2.     Poor potato harvests
3.     Loss of key employees of CFP
4.     Increase in operating costs of CFP
5.     Failure to achieve the expected cash flow levels
6.     Failure of potato growers to maintain required acreage resulting in supply shortages
7.     Poor quality potato product
8.     Competition from other potato packers
9.     Inability to keep the potato packing schedule full
10.   Catastrophic breakdown in equipment and software relating to the automated potato packing
       processes
11.   Failure to raise the additional working capital projected to be needed in our fiscal 4th quarter

 

RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

As previously stated, Mr. Wesley Cummins, who is a director and shareholder of the Company, and holds a controlling interest in Cummins Family Limited Partnership, Cummins Family Holdings, LLC and Southern Slope, Inc., is a principal and affiliate of CFP, the company we are purchasing and a principal or affiliate of the other parties to the Supply Agreement and Lease Agreement. Mr. Wesley Cummins' family members hold a controlling interest in Black Rock Ag., Inc.

Mr. James Schwartz, a director of the Company, is the managing member of Harvey Partners, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company that is the manager of Harvey SMidCap Fund LP, a Delaware limited partnership, and Harvey SMidCap Offshore Fund, Ltd., a Cayman Islands exempted company, which are participating in the Preferred Stock offering.

Mr. Kenneth Wood, President and Chief Executive Officer and a director of the Company is participating in the Preferred Stock offering.

Changes in Control of Registrant

As previously described, as a result of the transactions that occurred on January 14, 2009 as previously described in this report, Mr. Cummins, or his affiliates, own approximately 60% of our outstanding equity securities, comprised of our common shares and shares of Preferred Stock, and, subject to the rights and limitations contained in the Certificate, can cast approximately 60% of the votes attributable to all of our outstanding securities.

In addition, Mr. Cummins' voting the Preferred Stock as a class effectively can veto fundamental transactions, such as a sale of assets or merger.

This change in control will also create limitations to the use of our existing net operating tax loss carryforwards.

Amendment to Bylaws

Effective on December 15, 2008, we amended our bylaws by a unanimous vote of our board of directors, with Mr. Cummins abstaining, to add a new Section 6.11 that makes Sections 78.378 through and including Section 78.3793 of the Nevada Revised Statutes inapplicable to us.
