PRECISION OPTICS CORPORATION, INC.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)

1.
 
SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 Principles of Consolidation and Operations
 
The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Precision Optics Corporation, Inc. and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
 
These consolidated financial statements have been prepared by the Company, without audit, and reflect normal recurring adjustments which, in the opinion of management, are necessary for a fair statement of the results of the third quarter and the first nine months of the Company's fiscal year 2007. These consolidated financial statements do not include all disclosures associated with annual consolidated financial statements and, accordingly, should be read in conjunction with footnotes contained in the Company's consolidated financial statements for the year ended June 30, 2006 together with the Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm filed under cover of the Company's 2006 Annual Report on Form 10-KSB.
 
In April 2006 the Company completed a private placement, issuing 8,450,000 shares of common stock. Net cash proceeds to the Company (after offering costs of $49,725) were $2,062,775. In February 2007 the Company completed a private placement, pursuant to which it sold an aggregate of 10,000,000 shares of common stock, at a price of $0.25 per share and warrants to purchase an aggregate of 10,000,000 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $0.32 per share. Net cash proceeds to the Company (after offering costs of $108,324) were $2,391,676.
 
In the past five fiscal years, the Company has implemented a number of restructuring and cost saving measures in an effort to align costs with revenues and strengthen financial performance. Full-time employee headcount has been reduced from 78 at June 30, 2001 to 35 at March 31, 2007. The Company has discontinued the development and manufacturing of telecommunications products, canceled the lease on its Optical Thin Films Technology Center, and written down and/or sold certain property, equipment and inventories invested in its telecommunications business. The Company will continue its review of other expense areas to determine where additional reductions in discretionary spending can be achieved.

The Company’s current sources of liquidity consist of its cash and cash equivalents and accounts receivable. At March 31, 2007 the Company had $2,111,159 in cash and cash equivalents and $207,647 in accounts receivable.
 
The Company expects its recent pattern of quarter-to-quarter revenue fluctuations to continue, due to the uncertain timing of individual orders and their size in relation to total revenues. The Company remains confident in the value of its technology and expertise in medical applications and elsewhere. During the past year, the Company introduced several new products that with continued promotion, and along with new and on-going customer relationships, the Company believes will result in increasing revenues. In addition, despite strict controls on R&D spending, the Company continues to move forward with new products and technical innovations.

Use of Estimates
 
The preparation of these consolidated financial statements requires the Company to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses. The Company bases its estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.
 
Loss Per Share

Basic loss per share is computed by dividing net loss by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. For the three and nine months ended March 31, 2007 and 2006, the effect of stock options was antidilutive; 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 and warrants that were excluded from the computation as their effect would be antidilutive were approximately 12,532,583 and 1,336,783 for the periods ended March 31, 2007 and 2006, respectively.

Revenue Recognition
 
In December 2003, the Securities and Exchange Commission issued Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 104 (“SAB No. 104”) which establishes guidance in applying generally accepted accounting principles to revenue recognition in financial statements and was effective for the Company’s fiscal year 2004. 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 and determinable; and (4) collectibility is reasonably assured. The Company’s shipping terms are customarily FOB shipping point. The Company’s revenue recognition practices comply with the guidance in the bulletin.
 
The sales price of products and services sold is fixed and determinable after receipt and acceptance of a customer’s purchase order or properly executed sales contract, typically before any work is performed. Management reviews each customer purchase order or sales contract to determine that the work to be performed is specified and there are no unusual terms and conditions which would raise questions as to whether the sales price is fixed or determinable. The Company assesses credit worthiness of customers based upon prior history with the customer and assessment of financial condition. Accounts receivable are stated at the amount management expects to collect from outstanding balances. An allowance for doubtful accounts is provided for that portion of accounts receivable considered to be uncollectible, based upon historical experience and management’s evaluation of outstanding accounts receivable at the end of the year. Bad debts are written off against the allowance when identified.
-6-

 
The Company’s revenue transactions typically do not contain multiple deliverable elements for future performance obligations to customers, other than a standard one-year warranty on materials and workmanship, the estimated costs for which are provided for at the time revenue is recognized.

Revenues for industrial and medical 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. Services that the Company provides to customers consist of repairs and engineering design and development. Recognition of service revenue occurs (assuming all other revenue recognition criteria have been met) upon delivery to the customer of the repaired product. Gross shipping charges reimbursable from customers, to deliver product, are insignificant and are included in Revenues, while shipping costs are shown in Selling, General and Administrative Expenses section of the Consolidated Statement of Operations.

Reclassification

The Company has revised certain classifications within the statement of operations to more appropriately reflect as research and development costs certain expenditures associated with product development efforts that previously were reflected as cost of sales. The Company also reclassified certain reimbursed research and development costs, including costs associated with the production of prototypes, as an offset to research and development expense from revenue. In accordance with SFAS No. 154, “Accounting Changes and Error Corrections”, this change has been reflected retrospectively to all periods presented. The Company believes this better reflects the nature of certain expenditures (and reimbursements) due to the fact that the Company does not engage in any contractual arrangements to perform research and development. The effect of the reclassification had no impact on operating income, net income, the Company’s financial position or cash flows.

The table below summarizes the effect of these changes for the following periods:

Income Taxes
 
Income taxes are accounted for under the asset and liability method. 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 bases and operating loss and tax credit carryforwards. 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 income in the period that includes the enactment date.

In assessing the likelihood of utilization of existing deferred tax assets, management has considered historical results of operations and the current operating environment. Based on this evaluation, a full valuation reserve has been provided for the deferred tax assets.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements
 
In July 2006, the FASB issued FASB Interpretation No. 48 "Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes" ("FIN48"). FIN 48 is an interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109 "Accounting for Income Taxes," and it seeks to reduce the diversity in practice associated with certain aspects of measurement and recognition in accounting for income taxes. In addition, FIN 48 requires expanded disclosure with respect to the uncertainty in income taxes and is required to be adopted for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2006. The Company is currently evaluating the impact, if any, that FIN 48 will have on its financial statements.

In September 2006, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 157 "Fair Value Measurements", ("FAS 157"). FAS 157 defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value, and expands disclosure requirements regarding fair value measurement. FAS 157 is effective for the Company beginning July 1, 2008. The Company is currently reviewing FAS 157 to determine the impact and materiality of its adoption to the Company.

In September 2006, the SEC issued Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 108 ("SAB No. 108"), Considering the Effects of Prior Year Misstatements When Quantifying Misstatements in Current Year Financial Statements, providing guidance on quantifying financial statement misstatement and implementation when first applying this guidance. Under SAB No. 108, companies should evaluate a misstatement based on its impact on the current year income statement, as well as the cumulative effect of correcting such misstatements that existed in prior years still existing in the current year's ending balance sheet. SAB No. 108 is effective for fiscal years ending after November 15, 2006.  The Company is currently evaluating the impact, if any, that SAB No. 108 will have on its financial statements.

In December 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued a FASB Staff Position (“FSP”) Emerging Issues Task Force (“EITF”) Issue No. 00-19-2 “Accounting for Registration Payment Arrangements” (“FSP 00-19-2”) which addresses an issuer’s accounting for registration payment arrangements. FSP 00-19-2 specifies that the contingent obligation to make future payments or otherwise transfer consideration under a registration payment arrangement, whether issued as a separate agreement or included as a provision of a financial instrument or other agreement, should be separately recognized and measured in accordance with FASB Statement No. 5 “Accounting for Contingencies”. The guidance in FSP 00-19-2 amends FASB Statements No. 133, “Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities”, and No. 150, “Accounting for Certain Financial Instruments with Characteristics of both Liabilities and Equity”, and FASB Interpretation No. 45, “Guarantor’s Accounting and Disclosure Requirements for Guarantees, Including Indirect Guarantees of Indebtedness of Others” to include scope exceptions for registration payment arrangements. FSP 00-19-2 is effective immediately for registration payment arrangements and the financial instruments subject to those arrangements that are entered into or modified subsequent to the issuance of FSP 00-19-2. For registration payment arrangements and financial instruments subject to those arrangements that were entered into prior to the issuance of FSP 00-19-2, this is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2006, and interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company entered into a Registration Rights Agreement (the "Agreement") in connection with a private placement during the quarter ended March 31, 2007 (see Note 5). All of the Company’s obligations under the Agreement have been met and the Company has determined that no accrual is needed as of March 31, 2007 as it is not considered probable that the Company will make any payments under the applicable provisions of the Agreement.

STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION
 
On July 1, 2006, the Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123(R) (“SFAS 123(R)”) “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation”, which requires the measurement and recognition of all compensation costs for all stock based awards made to employees and the Board of Directors based upon fair value over the requisite service period for awards expected to vest. Prior to adoption, the Company accounted for stock options under the intrinsic value method set in accordance with Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25, “Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees,” and related interpretations, and provided the required pro forma disclosures prescribed by SFAS No. 123, “Accounting for Share-based Compensation”, as amended.
 
SFAS 123(R) requires the Company to estimate the fair value of share-based awards on the date of grant using an option pricing model. The Company adopted SFAS 123(R) using the modified prospective transition method which requires the application of the accounting standard starting July 1, 2006, the first day of the Company’s fiscal year 2007. Prior period information will not be restated to reflect the fair value method of expensing share-based awards.
 
Stock-based compensation costs recognized for the three and nine month periods ended March 31, 2007, included compensation costs for awards granted prior to, but not yet vested as of July 1, 2006 (adoption date), as well as any new grants issued after July 1, 2006. Total costs recognized during the three and nine month periods ended March 31, 2007 amounted to approximately $43,000 and $152,000, respectively and are included in selling, general and administrative expenses in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations. No compensation has been capitalized because such amount would have been immaterial. There was no net income tax benefit recognized related to such compensation for the three and nine months ended March 31, 2007, as the Company is currently in a loss position. Total amount of options granted during the three and nine months ended March 31, 2007 were -0- and 265,000, respectively.
 
As of March 31, 2007, the unrecognized compensation costs related to options vesting will be primarily recognized over a period of approximately 5 years:

Upon adoption of SFAS 123(R), in accordance with Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 107, the Company selected the Black-Scholes option pricing model as the most appropriate method for determining the estimated fair value for the stock awards. The Black-Scholes method of valuation requires several assumptions: (1) the expected term of the stock award, (2) the expected future stock volatility over the expected term and (3) risk-free interest rate. The expected term represents the expected period of time the Company believes the options will be outstanding based on historical information. Estimates of expected future stock price volatility are based on the historic volatility of the Company’s common stock and the risk free interest rate is based on the U.S. Zero-Bond rate. The Company utilizes a forfeiture rate based on an analysis of the Company’s actual experience. The fair value of options at date of grant was estimated with the following assumptions:

The aggregate intrinsic value of the Company’s “in-the-money” outstanding and exercisable options as of March 31, 2007 was $34,750 and $6,000, respectively.
 
On June 13, 2005 the Company issued options to purchase 934,000 shares (“Performance Options”) of common stock at an exercise price of $0.83 per share.   At the date of issuance, 30% of the options vested immediately, and the vesting of the remaining options is subject to achievement of certain financial milestones by the Company. 

On May 9, 2006, the Company’s Board of Directors approved the repricing of certain stock options held by employees and certain members of the Board of Directors. The new exercise price per share of common stock subject to such options (“Repriced Options”) was set at $0.55. The new exercise price per share applies to all stock options with an original exercise price above $0.55 per share, other than an option to purchase 560,400 shares of common stock held by Joseph Forkey and an option to purchase 373,600 shares of common stock held by Richard Forkey. Approximately 382,783 options were affected in the repricing.
-11-
 
According to Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25, "Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees," the Performance Options and Repriced Options were subject to variable accounting until the awards are exercised, forfeited, or expire unexercised, which includes periodic measurement of compensation expense based on the intrinsic value of the options. The compensation cost, if any, was recognized and adjusted quarterly for vested options or ratably over the vesting period for unvested options. No compensation expense related to these stock options was reflected in the net loss for the quarter ended March 31, 2006 as all options granted had an exercise price greater than the market value of the underlying common stock as of March 31, 2006. Upon the adoption of SFAS No. 123(R), these options are no longer subject to variable accounting.  Compensation related to these options is included in the amounts disclosed above for the three and nine month periods ended March 31, 2007.

SALE OF EQUIPMENT

In June 2005 the Company received an $18,000 deposit towards the sale of equipment previously used in its discontinued telecommunications business and in July 2005 recognized the sale of this equipment for $180,000, resulting in a gain of $165,700 in the quarter ended September 30, 2005. The Company received the remaining balance of $162,000 in the quarter ended September 30, 2005.

STOCKHOLDERS’ EQUITY

Common Stock

On February 1, 2007, the Company completed a private placement with institutional and other accredited investors pursuant to which it sold an aggregate of 10,000,000 shares of common stock, at a price of $0.25 per share and warrants to purchase an aggregate of 10,000,000 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $0.32 per share. Net cash proceeds to the Company (after offering costs of $108,324) were $2,391,676. On March 16, 2007, in order to fulfill its contractual obligations, the Company filed a registration statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission, under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, to register for resale the shares of common stock issued and the shares of common stock issuable upon the exercise of the warrants sold in this private placement. The Company’s registration statement on Form SB-2 covering the securities sold in the private placement was declared effective on March 23, 2007.

Warrants

The Company recorded $3,522,860 as the fair value for warrants issued in conjunction with the February 2007 private placement using the Black-Scholes pricing model. The warrants are exercisable anytime within five years of their issue date (February 1, 2007) and have been recorded as additional paid-in capital in stockholder’s equity. The warrants are exercisable at a per share price of $0.32 subject to certain anti-dilution adjustments. The fair value of the warrants at date of issuance was estimated with the following assumptions for the three months ended:

Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial
Condition and Results of Operations
 
Important Factors Regarding Forward-Looking Statements
When used in this discussion, the words “believes”, “anticipates”, “intends to”, and similar expressions are intended to identify forward-looking statements. Such statements are subject to certain risks and uncertainties which could cause actual results to differ materially from those projected. These risks and uncertainties, many of which are not within the Company’s control, include, but are not limited to, the uncertainty and timing of the successful development of the Company’s new products, the risks associated with reliance on a few key customers; the Company’s ability to attract and retain personnel with the necessary scientific and technical skills; the timing and completion of significant orders; the timing and amount of the Company’s research and development expenditures; the timing and level of market acceptance of customers’ products for which the Company supplies components; performance of the Company’s vendors; the ability of the Company to control costs associated with performance under fixed price contracts; and the continued availability to the Company of essential supplies, materials and services. Readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on these forward looking statements, which speak only as of the date hereof. The Company undertakes no obligation to publicly release the result of any revision to these forward-looking statements which may be made to reflect events or circumstances after the date hereof or to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events.

Overview

Precision Optics Corporation, a developer and manufacturer of advanced optical instruments since 1982, designs and produces high-quality optical thin film coatings, micro-optics, medical instruments, and other advanced optical systems. The Company’s medical instrumentation line includes laparoscopes, arthroscopes and endocouplers and a world-class product line of 3-D endoscopes for use in minimally invasive surgical procedures.

The Company is currently developing specialty instruments incorporating its patent-pending LENSLOCK TM technology which is designed to provide lower cost, easier repairability and enhanced durability. The Company is also aggressively pursuing ultra-small instruments (some with lenses less than one millimeter in diameter) utilizing patent-pending micro-precision TM lens technology, along with custom visualization systems for potential surgical applications. Additionally, the Company is exploring new initiatives in single-molecule technology and nanotechnology for biomedical and other applications.

Precision Optics Corporation is certified to the ISO 9001 and ISO 13485 Quality Standards and complies with the FDA Good Manufacturing Practices and the European Union Medical Device Directive for CE marking of its medical products. The Company’s internet website is www.poci.com.

The areas in which the Company does business are highly competitive and include both foreign and domestic competitors. Many of the Company’s competitors are larger and have substantially greater resources than the Company. Furthermore, other domestic or foreign companies, some with greater financial resources than the Company, may seek to produce products or services that compete with those of the Company. The Company routinely outsources specialized production efforts as required, both domestic and off-shore to obtain the most cost effective production. Over the years, the Company has achieved extensive experience with other optical specialists worldwide.
-13-

Since the 1990’s the Company has maintained a Hong Kong subsidiary to support business and quality control activities as required throughout Asia. The Company believes that the cost savings from such production is essential to the Company’s ability to compete on a price basis in the medical products area particularly and to the Company’s profitability in general.

The Company believes that competition for sales of its medical products and services, which have been principally sold to original equipment manufacturer (OEM) customers, is based on performance and other technical features, as well as other factors, such as scheduling and reliability, in addition to competitive price.

The Company believes that its future success depends to a large degree on its ability to continue to conceive and to develop new optical products and services and to enhance the performance characteristics and methods of manufacture of existing products. Accordingly, it expects to continue to pursue product-related design and development contracts with customers and to invest its own funds on research and development, to the extent funds are available.

Growth Trends and Critical Factors

Over the past few years new product and technology development has undergone significant changes in shifting the emphasis of R&D efforts from the development of underlying technologies to market exploitation in the applications of these new technologies. These have already been realized to some degree in a number of areas. Over the past two to three years these developments have produced revenues from new microprecision™ lens products and new Lenslock TM endoscopes. Recent initiatives in the area of microprecision™ lenses address specific customer opportunities in three or four different medical specialty applications. Similarly, in endoscope technologies we continue new product offerings in application of our Lenslock TM product line with over 150 such instruments produced and sold in the past year. Other instruments with possible volume production include our new video ophthalmoscope, which was developed and shipped in the past 24 months.

During the quarter ended March 31, 2007, the Company began shipments of low volumes of an advanced surgical visualization system to a significant new customer. These shipments are pursuant to production orders totaling over $1 million. Small initial shipments were made in the third quarter of fiscal year 2007 with the balance of the order expected to be delivered over the next 2 fiscal quarters.

Our capabilities with very small high precision lenses and prisms have begun to realize new markets for our core competencies in medical optical systems design, development and production. Among our specialties in fiber optics, we believe we have been the pre-eminent supplier of micro endocouplers for the past decade, used to “read out”, visually or electronically, ½ mm fiber optic image bundles. Recent customer requests for custom medical systems require special applications of the Company’s proprietary fiber optic techniques and autoclavable instrumentation development and production experience.

In our Lenslock TM line, having now demonstrated commercial production viability for the 2.7mm ENT scope, we expect to have our new 4 mm arthroscope and sinuscope instruments ready to be introduced in the near future.
 
There has been a major change in our Company over the past year. Recently developed technologies are now being realized as production or pre-production hardware. Going forward, our expectations are aimed at applied development for revenue bearing products. Some examples beyond the new instruments mentioned above include our lens development for a new Night Vision system which is undergoing customer evaluation as well as a new line of industrial filter thin film coatings, which are nearing completion, for a specific customer.

Sales and Marketing Development

Within the past twelve months we have added significant new resources for the Company with the addition of a Director of Marketing with special experience in broad market initiatives especially in the medical field. Together with our existing sales and marketing staff, this team has already begun a number of efforts to strengthen our market presence. This has included a newly designed website (www.poci.com). Coupled with the recently renewed efforts for select key trade show attendance by our Chief Scientific Officer, our CEO as well as our overall sales and marketing staff, we believe we have a greater opportunity to reach and follow up with a broader customer base than we have previously been able to achieve. A number of new opportunities are already leading to customer discussions for prospects for our new technologies including, Lenslock TM , micro precision TM , and custom applications of our core optical capabilities. This includes renewed interest in some of our well-developed products such as our “classic” autoclavable endoscopes, and endocouplers, as well as new applications with our micro (fiberoptic) endoscopes.

The Company places great emphasis in bringing new products to near term sales opportunities with prospects for long-term customer relationships.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

General

Management’s discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations are based upon the Company’s consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”). The preparation of these consolidated financial statements requires the Company to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses. The Company bases its estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.

The Company believes that the following critical accounting policies affect its more significant judgments and estimates used in the preparation of its consolidated financial statements.

Revenue Recognition

The Company recognizes revenue in accordance with U.S. GAAP and the Securities and Exchange Commission Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 104 Revenue Recognition in Financial Statements (“SAB No. 104”). 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 and determinable; and (4) collectibility is reasonably assured. The Company assesses credit worthiness of customers based upon prior history with the customer and assessment of financial condition. The Company’s shipping terms are customarily FOB shipping point.
-15-
 
Bad Debt

The Company maintains allowances for doubtful accounts for estimated losses resulting from the inability of its customers to make required payments. Allowances for doubtful accounts are established based upon review of specific account balances and historical experience. If the financial condition of the Company’s customers were to deteriorate, resulting in an impairment of their ability to make future payments, additional allowances may be required.

Inventories

The Company provides for estimated obsolescence on unmarketable inventory based upon assumptions about future demand and market conditions. If actual demand and market conditions are less favorable than those projected by management, additional inventory write downs may be required. Inventory, once written down, is not subsequently written back up, as these adjustments are considered permanent adjustments to the carrying value of the inventory.

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and Long-Lived Assets to be Disposed of

The Company accounts for impairment of long-lived assets in accordance with SFAS No. 144 Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets. This statement requires that long-lived assets and certain identifiable intangibles be reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Recoverability of assets to be held and used is measured by a comparison of the carrying amount of an asset to undiscounted future net cash flows expected to be generated by the asset. If such assets are considered to be impaired, the impairment to be recognized is measured by the amount by which the carrying amount of the assets exceeds the fair value of the assets. Assets to be disposed of through sale are reported at the lower of the carrying amount or fair value less estimated costs to sell.

Income Taxes
 
Income taxes are accounted for under the asset and liability method. 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 bases and operating loss and tax credit carryforwards. 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 income in the period that includes the enactment date.
 
In assessing the likelihood of utilization of existing deferred tax assets, management has considered historical results of operations and the current operating environment .
 
Stock-Based Compensation
 
Effective July 1, 2006, the Company adopted the fair-value recognition provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123 revised, "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation" (“SFAS No. 123(R)”) to expense stock-based compensation.
-16-

Reclassification-Research and Development Expenses
 
The Company has revised certain classifications within the statement of operations to more appropriately reflect as research and development costs certain expenditures associated with product development efforts that previously were reflected as cost of sales. The Company also reclassified certain reimbursed research and development costs, including costs associated with the production of prototypes, as an offset to research and development expense from revenue. In accordance with SFAS No. 154, “Accounting Changes and Error Corrections”, this change has been reflected retrospectively to all periods presented. The Company believes this better reflects the nature of certain expenditures (and reimbursements) due to the fact that the Company does not engage in any contractual arrangements to perform research and development. The effect of the reclassification had no impact on operating income, net income, the Company’s financial position or cash flows.

Results of Operations

Total revenues for the quarter ended March 31, 2007 (the third quarter of fiscal year 2007) decreased by approximately $179,000, or 28%, from the same period in the prior year. Total revenue for the nine months ended March 31, 2007 decreased by approximately $211,000, or 13%, from the same period in the prior year.

The decrease was due primarily to lower sales of the Company’s traditional medical products which was due, in part, to start-up efforts associated with the initial production of an advanced surgical visualization system for a significant new customer.
.

Revenues from the Company’s largest customers, as a percentage of total revenues for the nine months ended March 31, 2007 and 2006, were as follows:

No other customer accounted for more than 10% of the Company’s revenues during those periods.

At March 31, 2007, receivables from the Company’s three largest customers were approximately 25%, 13% and 13%, respectively, of the total net accounts receivable. At June 30, 2006, receivables from the Company’s three largest customers were approximately 17%, 14%, and 14%, respectively, of the total net accounts receivable. No other customer accounted for more than 10% of the Company’s receivables as of March 31, 2007 and June 30, 2006.

Gross profit for the quarter ended March 31, 2007 reflected an unfavorable change of approximately $72,000 compared to the quarter ended March 31, 2006. Gross profit as a percentage of revenues decreased from 18.4% for the quarter ended March 31, 2006 to 10.1% for the quarter ended March 31, 2007. This unfavorable change was due primarily to start-up costs related to the initial production of an advanced surgical visualization system for a significant new customer and lower volumes of the Company’s traditional products. Gross profit for the nine months ended March 31, 2007 reflected a favorable change of approximately $33,000 compared to the nine months ended March 31, 2006. Gross profit as a percentage of revenues increased from 13.5% for the nine months ended March 31, 2006 to a gross profit of 18.0% for the nine months ended March 31, 2007. This favorable change was due primarily to efficiencies in production, product mix and higher volumes of individual products offset by start-up costs related to the initial production of an advanced surgical visualization system for a significant new customer.

Research and development expenses, net, were $323,410 for the quarter ended March 31, 2007, compared to $219,674 for the same period in the prior fiscal year. Research and development expenses, net, were $966,887 for the nine months ended March 31, 2007, compared to $853,672 for the same period in the prior fiscal year. These expenses reflect a shift from previous activities aimed at the development of new technologies to applications of these technologies for customer-driven product development along with certain reclassifications. Quarterly research and development expenses depend on the Company’s assessment of new product opportunities and available resources.
-17-

Selling, general and administrative expenses increased by approximately $195,000, or 50.1% for the quarter ended March 31, 2007 compared to the same period in the prior fiscal year. Selling, general and administrative expenses increased by approximately $388,000, or 31.7%, for the nine months ended March 31, 2007 compared to the same period in the prior fiscal year. This was due primarily to a non-cash charge related to stock-based compensation expense following the implementation of SFAS No. 123 (R) along with costs associated with enhanced sales and marketing activities focused on increasing sales of recently developed products and increased professional fees.

Interest income increased by approximately $9,109, or 214%, for the quarter ended March 31, 2007 and by approximately $16,293, or 83%, for the nine months ended March 31, 2007 compared to the corresponding periods in the prior fiscal year. The increase was due to higher interest rates and a higher base of cash and cash equivalents.

No income tax provision was recorded in the third quarter of fiscal year 2007 or 2006 because of the losses generated in those periods.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

For the nine months ended March 31, 2007, the Company’s cash and cash equivalents increased by $80,731 to $2,111,159. The increase in cash and cash equivalents was due primarily from the receipt of net proceeds of $2,391,676 from a private placement in February 2007, offset by cash used in operating activities of $2,102,908, capital expenditures of $121,342, and patent costs of $80,044.

On February 1, 2007, the Company closed on a private placement of its common stock raising gross proceeds of $2,500,000. The Company believes, based on its operating and strategic plans and the cash held by the Company, that it will have sufficient funds to conduct operations through the next twelve months.

Contractual cash commitments for the fiscal years subsequent to March 31, 2007 are summarized as follows:

The Company generally provides a standard one-year warranty on materials and workmanship to its customers. The Company provides for estimated warranty costs at the time product revenue is recognized. Warranty costs are included as a component of cost of goods sold in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations.

Trends and Uncertainties That May Affect Future Results

For the quarter ended March 31, 2007, the Company’s cash and cash equivalents increased by $1,558,869, compared to a decrease of $722,689 for the previous quarter ended December 31, 2006.

Capital equipment expenditures during the nine months ended March 31, 2007 were $121,342 compared to $20,667 for the same period in 2006. Future capital expenditures will depend on future sales and the success of ongoing research and development efforts.

For the quarter ended March 31, 2007, research and development expenses, net, were $323,410, compared to $219,674 a year earlier. The level of future quarterly R&D expenses will ultimately depend on the Company’s assessment of new product opportunities and available cash resources.

The Company believes that the recent introduction of several new products, along with new and ongoing customer relationships, will generate additional revenues, which are required in order for the Company to achieve profitability. In the coming months the Company will continue to focus its efforts on marketing products recently introduced or redesigned. The Company believes that these marketing activities, if successful, may result in the overall growth of sales.
 
Item 3  Controls and Procedures

(a) As of the end of the period covered by this quarterly report, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer have conducted an evaluation of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures. Based on their evaluation, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer have concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures are effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Company in reports that it files or submits under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the applicable Securities and Exchange Commission rules and forms.
 
(b) There was a change in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the quarter ended December 31, 2006. Our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer evaluated our disclosure controls and procedures and internal control over financial reporting and concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of September 30, 2006 solely because of the following material weakness in internal control over financial reporting with respect to accounting for stock-based compensation: a failure to ensure the correct application of SFAS 123(R) as of its effective date for the Company, July 1, 2006. During its review of the Company's financials for the quarter ended September 30, 2006, the Company’s independent accountants identified this weakness. On November 14, 2006, the Company established new procedures requiring the ongoing review and implementation of changes in accounting rules and related disclosure requirements in the form of periodic review meetings between the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, held at least twice per quarter - once at the beginning of each quarter and once prior to each filing with the SEC containing the Company’s financial statements.

There was no change in our internal control over financial reporting during the Company’s most recently completed fiscal quarter as a result of the evaluation referred to in clause (a) of this Item 3.
