There may be other risks and circumstances that management may be unable to predict.  When used in this Report, words such as,  "believes,"  "expects," "intends,"  "plans,"  "anticipates,"  "estimates" and similar expressions are intended to identify and qualify forward-looking statements, although there may be certain forward-looking statements not accompanied by such expressions.


PART I

 

ITEM 1.  BUSINESS.


Business Development


We were incorporated in the State of Utah on June 29, 1983, under the name Teal Eye, Inc.  We merged with Terzon Corporation and changed our name to Terzon Corporation in 1984.  We subsequently changed our name to Candy Stripers Candy Corporation.  We were engaged in the business of manufacturing and selling candy and gift items to hospital gift shops across the country.  We were traded Over-the-Counter Bulletin Board for several years.  In 1986 we ceased the candy manufacturing operations and filed for Chapter 11 Bankruptcy protection.  After emerging from Bankruptcy in 1993, we remained dormant until January 1998, when we changed our name to Piedmont, Inc.  On May 13, 2003, we filed an amendment to our Articles of Incorporation to change our name from Piedmont, Inc. to US Biodefense, Inc.


On May 1, 2004 we entered into an agreement with Financialnewsusa.com, a related party, to provide consulting services to them in exchange for $50,000.  The agreement has a term of one year and may be extended upon agreement by both parties.  Either party may cancel the agreement with five days written notice in the event of a material violation of the agreement.  Either party may cancel the agreement for any reason upon 30 days written notice.  We have been paid in advance the entire balance of the contract.  As of November 30, 2004, we had recorded deferred revenue in the amount of $20,833.  We cannot guarantee that we will be able to attract future customers and continue to generate sales.


We are focused on encouraging the development, manufacture and commercialization of biologic products for the prevention and treatment of human infectious disease.  Our current business strategy focuses on the potential commercialization of biologic products to counter potential bioterrorism threats.


On November 8, 2004, we entered into a Commercial Evaluation License Agreement with the United States Public Health Service within the Department of Health and Human Services.  The Agreement grants us a nonexclusive license to evaluate the suitability for commercial development of cellular and viral inactivation applied for in a Provisional Patent Application Number 60/555,268 filed March 22, 2004.  We paid $3,500 for the six month license and are obligated to confidentiality under the agreement for a period of three years.  Under our current license, we are prohibited from selling any products or processes we may develop.  We will be required to obtain an additional license agreement to do so.  However, we have not developed any products or processes as the result of this license agreement and cannot guarantee that any feasible such products or processes will be developed.  We have not expended any amount on research and development costs in relation to this license.






3








On February 15, 2005, we entered into a consulting agreement with an independent consultant to assist with the development of its NIH SBIR Grant proposal related to the creation of a Stem Cell Research Center of Excellence.  The consultant will serve as a Scientific Advisor to the Company and will assist with grant writing editing and review of a letter of intent and final proposal for the Stem Cell Center of Excellence.  The agreement has a term of one year, which may be extended upon agreement by both parties.  As compensation for entering into the agreement, the consultant will be paid at the rate of $100 per hour.


Business of Issuer


Principal Products and Principal Markets


We intend to provide diversified professional and technical services involving the application of scientific, engineering and management expertise to provide biological defense solutions for government and commercial customers in the U.S. and abroad.  We are currently developing our internal operations and researching potential opportunities for our business.  


Distribution Methods of Our Products


Our marketing activities will be focused on key vertical markets and will be primarily conducted by our management and any independent contractors we have employ.  Our marketing approach will begin with the development of information concerning the requirements of our potential customers for the types of technical services that we provide.  This information is gathered in the course of contract performance, reviewing requests for competitive bids, formal briefings, participation in professional organizations and published literature.  This information is then evaluated in order to devise and implement the best means of taking advantage of available business opportunities, including the preparation of proposals responsive to the stated and perceived needs of customers.  Our products may be marketed with the assistance of independent sales representatives.  We have not yet implemented any marketing activities and have not determined when we may begin to do so.


Competitive Business Conditions and the Issuer's Competitive Position


Our business is highly competitive.  We have a large number of competitors, all of which have been established longer and have substantially greater financial resources and larger technical staffs.  We also compete with specialized entities that are able to concentrate their resources on particular areas.  We may also compete with the U.S. Government's own in-house capabilities and federal non-profit contract research centers.


We compete on the basis of technical expertise, management and marketing abilities and price.  Our continued success is dependent upon our ability to hire and retain highly qualified scientists, engineers, technicians, management and professional personnel who will provide superior service and performance on a cost-effective basis.


Government Approval of Principal Products or Services


We expect the U.S. Government to be one of our primary customers.  Many of the U.S. Government programs in which we may participate as a contractor or subcontractor may extend for several years.  All U.S. Government contracts and subcontracts may be modified, curtailed or terminated at the convenience of the government if program requirements or budgetary constraints change.  If a contract is terminated for convenience, we will be generally reimbursed for our allowable costs through the date of termination and will be paid a proportionate amount of the stipulated profit or fee attributable to the work actually performed.  No assurance can be given that contract and program modifications, curtailments or terminations will not have a material adverse effect on us.


In addition, the U.S. Government may terminate a contract for default.  Such a termination could have a significant impact on our business.  If a contract is terminated for default, we may be unable to recover amounts billed or billable under the contract and may be liable for other costs and damages.






4








Effect of Existing or Probable Government Regulations


Our management does not believe that any existing or probable government regulations could impact our business.  However, we could be indirectly affected if our independent manufacturers fail to operate in compliance with applicable laws and regulations.  Although our internal guidelines promote ethical business practices, we do not control these vendors or their labor practices.  The violation of labor or other laws by an independent manufacturer, or the divergence of an independent manufacturer's labor practices from those generally accepted as ethical in the United States, could result in adverse publicity for us and could reduce sales of our products.  


Employees


We do not have any employees.  Instead, we presently rely on the efforts of our President, David Chin, who devotes an average of 10 hours per week to our operations.  We believe that our operations are currently on a small scale that is manageable by a one individual.  While we believe that the addition of employees is not required over the next 12 months, we may contract independent contracts to assist in the implementation and/or marketing of our business.  These representatives are not intended to be employees of our company.  


Reports to Security Holders


Annual Reports


We intend to furnish our shareholders with audited annual financial reports certified by our independent accountants, and may, in our discretion, furnish unaudited quarterly financial reports.


Periodic Reports with the SEC


As of the date of this annual report, we have filed all necessary periodic reports with the SEC, as required by law and regulations applicable to fully reporting companies.  


Availability of Filings


You may read and copy any materials we file with the SEC at the SEC's Public Reference Room at 450 Fifth Street, N.W., Washington, D.C. 20549.  You may obtain information on the operation of the Public Reference Room by calling the SEC at 1-800-SEC-0330.  Our SEC filings will be available on the SEC Internet site, located at http://www.sec.gov.


Risk Factors


Our limited operating history provides a limited basis for evaluating our future prospects.


We have only begun to generate revenues in the fiscal year 2004.  We have a limited operating history on which to evaluate our business and prospects.  Our prospects must be considered in light of the risks, expenses and difficulties frequently encountered by companies entering dynamic markets such as the defense contractor industry.  Such risks include, but are not limited to, an evolving and unpredictable business model, dependence on the availability of government contracts, transactions in our principal markets, the acceptance of our services and/or products, our ability to develop marketable technologies and the management of growth.  We cannot assure you that we will be successful in generating revenues on a sustainable basis.  The failure to do so could result in persistent losses and depletion of cash reserves and other material assets.


We may not be able to compete against our larger competitors.


Significantly all of our competitors have greater financial, distribution, marketing and other resources and have achieved greater recognition for their brand names for product lines or certain products than we have.  As a result, some of these competitors may be able to devote greater resources to marketing and promotional activities or adopt more aggressive pricing policies than we may be able to.  Increased competition in this manner may result in reduced operating margins or loss of market share.






5








A substantial percentage of our revenue is expected to be derived from U.S. Government customers


We expect to derive a substantial portion of our revenues from the U.S. Government as a prime contractor or a subcontractor.  Our revenues could be adversely impacted by a reduction in the overall level of U.S. Government spending and by changes in its spending priorities from year to year.  Furthermore, even if the overall level of U.S. Government spending does increase or remains stable, the budgets of the government agencies with whom we may do business may be decreased or our projects with them may not be sufficiently funded, particularly because Congress usually appropriates funds for a given project on a fiscal-year basis even though contract performance may take more than one year.  The current Iraq conflict may adversely impact our revenues in fiscal year 2005 if U.S. Government funding shifts to direct war fighting efforts, as we may experience delays in new contract awards and funding of current contracts that are not directly related to the conflict.  In addition, obtaining U.S. Government contracts remains a highly competitive process and this may lead to a greater portion of our revenue base being associated with contracts providing for a lower amount of reimbursable cost than we otherwise may have been able to recover.


We face risks relating to Government contracts


The Government may modify, curtail or terminate our contracts.  Many of the U.S. Government programs in which we expect to participate as a contractor or subcontractor may extend for several years; however, these programs are normally funded on an annual basis.  The U.S. Government may modify, curtail or terminate its contracts and subcontracts at its convenience.  Modification, curtailment or termination of our major programs or contracts could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations and financial condition.


Our business is subject to potential Government inquiries and investigations.  We will be, from time to time, subject to certain U.S. Government inquiries and investigations of our business practices due to participation in government contracts.  We cannot assure you that any such inquiry or investigation would not have a material adverse effect on our results of operations and financial condition.


Our contract costs are subject to audits by Government agencies.  The costs we anticipate incurring on U.S. Government contracts, including allocated indirect costs, may be audited by U.S. Government representatives.  These audits may result in adjustments to our contract costs.  We intend to negotiate with the U.S. Government representatives before settling on final adjustments to our contract costs.  We do not know the outcome of any future audits and adjustments and we may be required to reduce our revenues or profits upon completion and final negotiation of these audits.


Our business could suffer if we fail to attract, train and retain skilled employees


The availability of highly trained and skilled professional, administrative and technical personnel is critical to our future growth and profitability.  Competition for scientists, engineers, technicians, management and professional personnel is intense and competitors aggressively recruit key employees.  Because of competition for experienced personnel, particularly in highly specialized areas, it will be difficult to meet our anticipated needs for these employees in a timely manner.  We intend to devote significant resources to recruit, train and retain qualified employees; however, we cannot assure you that we will be able to attract and retain such employees on acceptable terms.  Any failure to do so could have a material adverse effect on our operations.


Our management is involved with other business activities, which could reduce the time they allocate to our operations.


Our operations depend substantially on the skills and experience of Mr. David Chin, our President.  Mr. Chin is involved in other business activities and may, in the future, become involved in other business opportunities.  If a specific business opportunity becomes available, one or more of these individuals may face a conflict in selecting between US Biodefense and his other business interests.  We have not formulated a policy for the resolution of such conflicts.

Shares Available Under Rule 144

As of November 30, 2004, there were 10,000,000 shares of common stock that are considered restricted securities under Rule 144 of the Securities Act of 1933.  Of the 10,000,000 restricted shares issued and outstanding, 9,000,000 shares are held by David Chin, an affiliate, as that term is defined in Rule 144(a)(1).


In  general, under  Rule  144  as  amended,  a  person  who  has beneficially  owned and held "restricted" securities for at least one year,  including  "affiliates,"  may  sell  publicly  without registration  under  the  Securities Act,  within  any  three-month period,  assuming compliance with other provisions of the  Rule,  a number  of shares that do not exceed the greater of (i) one percent of  the  common stock then outstanding or, (ii) the average  weekly trading  volume in the common stock during the four calendar  weeks preceding  such sale. A person who is not deemed an "affiliate" of our Company and who has beneficially owned shares for at least two years would be entitled to unlimited resales of such restricted securities under Rule 144 without regard to the volume and other limitations described above.


Holders


As of the date of this prospectus, we have approximately 10,101,349 shares of $0.001 par value common stock issued and outstanding held by approximately 100 shareholders of record.


Dividends


We have never declared or paid any cash dividends on our common stock.  For the foreseeable future, we intend to retain any earnings to finance the development and expansion of our business, and we do not anticipate paying any cash dividends on its common stock.  Any future determination to pay dividends will be at the discretion of the Board of Directors and will be dependent upon then existing conditions, including our financial condition and results of operations, capital requirements, contractual restrictions, business prospects, and other factors that the board of directors considers relevant.

ITEM 6.  MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF RESULTS OF OPERATIONS AND FINANCIAL CONDITION


Overview


We were incorporated in the State of Utah on June 29, 1983, under the name Teal Eye, Inc.  We merged with Terzon Corporation and changed our name to Terzon Corporation in 1984.  We subsequently changed our name to Candy Stripers Candy Corporation.  We were engaged in the business of manufacturing and selling candy and gift items to hospital gift shops across the country.  We were traded Over-the-Counter Bulletin Board for several years.  In 1986 we ceased the candy manufacturing operations and filed for Chapter 11 Bankruptcy protection.  After emerging from Bankruptcy in 1993, we remained dormant until January 1998, when we changed our name to Piedmont, Inc.  On May 13, 2003, we filed an amendment to our Articles of Incorporation to change our name from Piedmont, Inc. to US Biodefense, Inc.  We are a registered government contractor with the Department of Defense Logistics Agency that is focused on designing ad developing homeland security and biodefense products.



Results of Operations


Revenues


Our revenues totaled $29,167 for the current fiscal year ended November 30, 2004, compared to $0 for the fiscal year ended November 30, 2003.  Revenues for the current fiscal year were attributable solely to the May 1, 2004 agreement with Financialnewsusa.com, a related party, to provide consulting services to them in exchange for $50,000, for which we were paid in advance the entire balance of the contract.  As of November 30, 2004, we had realized revenue in the amount of $29,167 and deferred revenue of $20,833.  We cannot guarantee that we will be able to attract future customers and continue to generate sales.  In the year ago period, we did not generate any revenues.


Expenses


Total expenses for the year ended November 30, 2004 were $58,131, consisting solely of general and administrative expenses, of which $25,000 was paid to a related party.  For the year ended November 30, 2003, we incurred expenses of $110,000, all of which was considered general and administrative paid to a related party.  


The related party expenses are attributable to the April 1, 2003 employment agreement with David Chin, an officer and director.  In accordance with this employment agreement, we issued 9,000,000 shares of our common stock valued at $135,000.  We recognized $110,000 as an expense in the year ended November 30, 2003 and the remaining portion of $25,000 was expensed in the year ended November 30, 2004.


On November 8, 2004, we entered into a Commercial Evaluation License Agreement with the United States Public Health Service within the Department of Health and Human Services.  We paid $3,500 for a six month nonexclusive license to evaluate the suitability for commercial development of cellular and viral inactivation.  


We expect to continue to use shares of our common stock to pay for future expenses to preserve capital.  Additionally, we expect to continue to incur general and administrative expenses for the foreseeable future, although we cannot estimate the extent of such expenses.


Net Loss


Our net loss from operations totaled $28,694 this fiscal year compared to $110,000 in the prior year ended November 30, 2003, a decrease of 74%.  One key factor provided this change: namely, that the compensation paid to an officer, and recorded as a general and administrative expense, was sharply lower from the year ago period.






9








Liquidity And Capital Resources


We have limited cash on hand, and may be unable to continue operations for the next at least 12 months if we are unable to generate revenues or obtain capital infusions by issuing equity or debt securities in exchange for cash.  If we are unable to obtain capital through issuances of equity or debt, David Chin, a shareholder and President of our company, has verbally agreed to loan us cash, which shall bear no interest and be due upon demand.  As of November 30, 2004, David Chin loaned us a total of $4,313 to pay for general and administrative expenses.  The loan bears no interest and is due upon demand.  As of November 30, 2004, the amount owed is $4,313.  We have no formal written agreement with Mr. Chin for any further loans, and we cannot guarantee you that we will be able to enforce our verbal agreement.  Notwithstanding this, there can be no assurance that we will be able to secure additional funds in the future to stay in business.  Our principal accountants have expressed substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern because we have limited operations.


There are no known trends, events or uncertainties that have had or that are reasonably expected to have a material impact on our revenues from continuing operations.  


Our management does not anticipate the need to hire additional full- or part- time employees over the next 12 months, as the services provided by our officers and directors appear sufficient at this time.  We believe that our operations are currently on a small scale that is manageable by a few individuals.  While we believe that the addition of employees is not required over the next 12 months, we intend to hire independent contractors to perform research activities and market any potential products and services we may develop.  

We do not have any off-balance sheet arrangements.


We currently do not own any significant plant or equipment that we would seek to sell in the near future.


We have not paid for expenses on behalf of any of our directors.  Additionally, we believe that this fact shall not materially change.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM



TO THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS AND STOCKHOLDERS OF

US BIODEFENSE, INC.


I have audited the accompanying balance sheets of US Biodefense, Inc. as of November 30, 2004 and 2003 and the related statements of operations, stockholders' equity (deficit) and cash flows for the years then ended.  These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. My responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on my audit.


I conducted my audits in accordance with standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States).  Those standards require that I plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement.  An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements.  An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation.  I believe that my audits provide a reasonable basis for my opinion.


In my opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of US Biodefense, Inc. as of November 30, 2004 and 2003 and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the years then ended in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.


The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 1 to the accompanying financial statements, the Company has no established source of revenue, which raises substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. Management's plan in regard to these matters is also discussed in Note 1. These financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

Note 1 - Background and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies


Background


US Biodefense, Inc. (the "Company"), a Utah corporation is headquartered in the City of Industry, California.  The Company is a registered government contractor with the Department of Defense Logistics Agency.  The Company is focused on designing ad developing homeland security and biodefense products.


The Company was originally incorporated under the name Teal Eye, Inc. in the state of Utah on June 29, 1983.  The Company then merged with Terzon Corp. and amended its Articles of Incorporation to change the name to Terzon Corp.  On September 7, 1984, the Company amended its articles of incorporation changing its name to Candy Stripers Corporation, Inc.  On January 6, 1998, the Company amended its Articles of Incorporation changing its name to Piedmont, Inc.  On May 31, 2003, the Company amended its articles of Incorporation and changed its name to US Biodefense, Inc.  


Following is a summary of the Company's significant accounting policies.


Basis of Presentation


The accompanying financial statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, which contemplate continuation of the Company as a going concern.  The Company incurred a net loss for the year ended November 30, 2004 of $28,564 and at November 30, 2004, had an accumulated deficit of $3,794,954.  In addition, the Company generates minimal revenue from its operations.  These conditions raise substantial doubt as to the Company's ability to continue as a growing concern.  These financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.  These financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts, or amounts and classification of recorded asset amounts, or amounts and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.


Management plans to take the following steps that it believes will be sufficient to provide the Company with the ability to continue in existence.


Management intends to raise financing through the issuance of its common stock or other means and interests that it deems necessary, with a view to moving forward with the development of the homeland security and biodefense products.


Use of Estimates


The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period.  Actual results could differ from those estimates.

US Biodefense, Inc.

Notes to Financial Statements


Fair Value of Financial Instruments


For certain of the Company's financial instruments, including cash and cash equivalents, prepaid expenses, accounts payable and deferred revenues, the carrying amounts approximate fair value due to their short maturities.


Revenue Recognition


Revenue is recognized when services are performed or products are delivered.  The cost of shipping and handling are charged directly to cost of sales at the time of shipment.  Sales are recorded net of returns, discounts and allowances.


Concentration of Credit Risk


Financial instruments which subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk include cash and cash equivalents.


The Company maintains its cash in well-known banks selected based upon management's assessment of the bank's financial stability.  Balances may periodically exceed the $100,000 federal depository insurance limit; however, the Company has not experienced any losses on deposits.  The Company extends credit based on an evaluation of the customer's financial condition, generally without collateral.  Exposure to losses on receivables is principally dependent on each customer's financial condition.  The Company monitors its exposure for credit losses and maintains allowances for anticipated losses, as required.


Cash Equivalents


For purposes of reporting cash flows, the Company considers all short-term investments with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalent.


Comprehensive Income


Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 130, "Reporting Comprehensive Income," establishes standards for the reporting and display of comprehensive income and its components in the financial statements.  For the years ended November 30, 2004 and 2003, the Company has no items that represent other comprehensive income, and accordingly, has not included a schedule of comprehensive income in the financial statements.


Advertising Costs


Advertising costs are expensed as incurred.  There were no advertising costs for the years ended November 30, 2004 and 2003.


Income Taxes


The Company accounts for income taxes under SFAS 109, "Accounting for Income Taxes."  Under the asset and liability method of SFAS 109, deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statements carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases.  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.

Notes to Financial Statements


Loss per Share


In accordance with SFAS No. 128, "Earnings Per Share," the basic income / (loss) per common share is computed by dividing net income / (loss) available to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding.  Diluted income per common share is computed similar to basic income per share except that the denominator is increased to include the number of additional common shares that would have been outstanding if the potential common shares had been issued and if the additional common shares were dilutive.  As of November 30, 2004 and 2003, the Company does not have any equity or debt instruments outstanding that can be converted into common stock.


Stock-Based Compensation


The Company accounts for stock-based employee compensation arrangements in accordance with the provisions of Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25, "Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees" and complies with the disclosure provisions of SFAS 123, "Accounting for Stock- Based Compensation."  Under APB 25, compensation cost is recognized over the vesting period based on the excess, if any, on the date of the grant of the deemed fair value of the Company's shares over the employee's exercise price.  When the exercise price of the employee share options is less than the fair value price of the underlying shares on the grant date, deferred stock compensation is recognized and amortized to expense in accordance with FASB Interpretation No. 28 over the vesting period of the individual options.  Accordingly, because the exercise price of the Company's employee options equals or exceeds the market price of the underlying shares on the date of grant, no compensation expense is recognized.  Options or shares awards issued to non-employees are valued using the fair value method and expensed over the period services are provided.


Impairment of Long-Lived Assets


In the event that facts and circumstances indicate that the carrying value of a long-lived asset, including associated intangibles, may be impaired, an evaluation of recoverability is performed by comparing the estimated future undiscounted cash flows, associated with the asset or the asset's estimated fair value to the asset's carrying amount to determine if a write-down to market value or discounted cash flow is required.


Recent Accounting Pronouncements


In January 2003, the FASB issued Interpretation No 46, "Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities" (an interpretation of Accounting Research Bulletin (ARB) No. 51, Consolidation Financial Statements).  Interpretation 46 addresses consolidation by business enterprises of entities to which the usual condition of consolidation described in ARB-5 does not apply.  The Interpretation changes the criteria by which one company includes another entity in its consolidated financial statements.  The general requirement to consolidate under ARB-51 is based on the presumption that an enterprise's financial statement should include all of the entities in which it has a controlling financial interest (i.e., majority voting interest).  Interpretation 46 requires a variable interest entity to receive a majority of the entity's residual returns or both.  A company that consolidated a variable interest entity is called the primary beneficiary of that entity. In December 2003, the FASB concluded to revise certain elements of FIN 46, primarily to clarify the required accounting for interests in variable



F-8

Notes to Financial Statements


interest entities.  FIN-46R replaces FIN-46. that was issued in January, 2003.  FIN-46R exempts certain entities from its requirements and provides for special effective dates for entities that have fully or partially applied FIN-46 as of December 24, 2003.  In certain situations, entities have the option of applying or continuing to apply FIN-46 for a short period of time before applying IN-46R.  In general, for all entities that were previously considered special purpose entities, FIN 46 should be applied for registrants who file under Regulation SX in periods ending after March 31, 2004, and for registrants who file under Regulation SB, in periods ending after December 15, 2004.  The Company does not expect the adoption to have a material impact on the Company's financial position or results of operations.


During April 2003, the FASB issued SFAS 149 - "Amendment of Statement 133 on Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities", effective for contracts entered into or modified after September 30, 2003, except as stated below and for hedging relationships designated after September 30, 2003.  In addition, except as stated below, all provisions of this Statement should be applied prospectively.  The provisions of this Statement that relate to Statement 133 Implement- ation Issues that have been effective for fiscal quarters that began prior to June 15, 2003, should continue to be applied in accordance with their respective effective dates.  In addition, paragraphs 7(a) and 23(a), which relate to forward purchases or sales of when-issued securities or other securities that do not yet exist, should be applied to both existing contracts and new contracts entered into after September 30, 2003.  The adoption of this statement had no impact on the Company's financial statements.


During May 2003, the FASB issued SFAS 150 - "Accounting for Certain Financial Instruments with Characteristics of both Liabilities and Equity", effective for financial instruments entered into or modified after May 31, 2003, and otherwise is effective for public entities at the beginning of the first interim period beginning after June 15, 2003.  This Statement establishes standards for how an issuer classifies and measures certain financial instrument with characteristics of both liabilities and equity.  It requires that an issuer classify a freestanding financial instrument that is within its scope as a liability (or an asset in some circumstances).  Many of those instruments were previously classified as equity.  Some of the provisions of this Statement are consistent with the current definition of liabilities in FASB Concepts Statement No. 6, Element of Financial Statements. The adoption of this statement had no impact on the Company's financial statements.


In December 2003, the FASB issued a revised SFAS No. 132, "Employers' Disclosures about Pensions and Other Postretirement Benefits" which replaces the previously issued Statement.  The revised Statement increases the existing disclosures for defined benefit pension plans and other defined benefit postretirement plans.  However, it does not change the measurement or recognition of those plans as required under SFAS No. 88, "Employers' Accounting for Settlements and Curtailments of Defined Benefit Pension Plans and for Termination Benefits," and SFAS No. 106, "Employers' Accounting for Postretirement Benefits Other Than Pensions."  Specifically, the revised Statement requires companies to provide additional disclosures about pension plan assets, benefit obligations, cash flows, and benefit costs of defined benefit pension plans and other defined benefit postretirement plans. Also, companies are required to provide a breakdown of plan assets by category, such as debt, equity and real estate, and to provide certain expected rates of return and target allocation percentages for these asset categories.  The Company has implemented this pronouncement and has concluded that the adoption has no material impact to the financial statements.


In December, 2003, the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") issued Staff Accounting Bulletin ("SAB") No. 104, "Revenue Recognition."  SAB 104 supersedes SAB 11, "Revenue Recognition in Financial Statements."  SAB 104's primary purpose is to rescind accounting

US Biodefense, Inc.

Notes to Financial Statements


guidance contained in SAB 101 related to multiple element revenue arrangements, superseded as a result of the issuance of EITF 00-21, "Accounting for Revenue Arrangements with Multiple Deliverables."  Additionally, SAB 104 rescinds the SEC's Revenue Recognition in Financial Statements Frequently Asked Questions and Answers (the FAQ) issued with SAB 101 that had been codified in SEC Topic, 13, Revenue Recognition.  Selected portions of the FAQ have been incorporated into SAB 104.  While the wording of SAB 104 has changed to reflect the issuance of EITF 00-21, the revenue recognition principles of SAB 101 remain largely unchanged by the issuance of SAB 104, which was effective upon issuance.  The adoption of SAB 104 did not impact the financial statements.


In March, 2004, the FASB approved the consensus reached on the Emerging Issues Task Forces (ETIF) Issue No. 03-1, "The Meaning of Other-Than-Temporary Impairment and Its Application to Certain Investments."  The objective of this Issue is to provide guidance for identifying impaired investments.  EITF 03-1 also provides new disclosure requirements for investments for investments are deemed  to be temporarily impaired.  In September 204, the FASB issued a FASB Staff Position (FSP) EITF 03-1-1 that delays the effective date of the measurement and recognition are effective only for annual periods ending after June15,2004.  The Company has evaluated the impact of the adoption of the disclosure requirements of EITF 03-1 and does not believe it will have an impact to the Company's overall combined results of operations or combined financial position.  Once the FASB reaches a final decision on the measurement and recognition provisions, the Company will evaluate the impact of the adoption of EITF 03-1.


In November 2004, the FASB issued SFAS No. 151 "Inventory Costs, an amendment of ARB No. 43, Chapter 4 ("SFAS No. 151".  The amendments made by SFAS 151 clarify that abnormal amount of idle facility expense, freight, handling costs, and wasted materials (spoilage) should be recognized as current-period charges and require the allocation of fixed production overheads to inventory based on the normal capacity of the production facilities.  The guidance is effective for inventory costs incurred during fiscal years beginning after June 15, 2005.  Earlier application is permitted for inventory costs incurred during fiscal years beginning after November 23, 2004.  The Company has evaluated the impact of the adoption of SFAS 151, and does not believe the impact will be significant to the Company's overall results of operations or financial position.


In December 2004, the FASB issued SFAS No. 152, "Accounting for Real Estate Time-Sharing Transactions-an amendment of FASB Statements No. 66 and 67" ("SFAS 152") SFAS 152 amends SFAS No. 66, "Accounting for Sales of Real Estate", to reference the financial accounting and reporting guidance for real estate time-sharing transactions that is provided in AICPA Statement of Position (SOP) 04-2, "Accounting for Real Estate Time-Sharing Transactions". SFAS 152 also amends SFAS No. 67, "Accounting for Costs and Initial Rental Operations of Real Estate Projects", to state that the guidance for (a) incidental operations and (b) costs incurred to sell real estate projects does not apply to real estate time-sharing transactions.  The accounting for those operations and costs is subject to the guidance in SOP04-2.  SFAS 152 is effective for financial statements for fiscal years beginning after June 15, 2005, with earlier applications encouraged.  The Company has evaluated the impact of the adoption of SFAS 152, and does not believe the impact will be significant to the Company's overall results of operations or financial position.


In December 2004, the FASB issued SFAS No. 153, "Exchanges of Nonmonetary Asset, an amendment of APB Opinion No. 29, Accounting for Nonmonetary Transactions."  The amendments made by SFAS 153 are based on the principle that exchanges of nonmonetary assets should be measured based on the fair value of the assets exchanged.  Further, the amendments eliminate the narrow exception for nonmonetary exchanges of similar productive assets and replace it with a broader exception for exchanges of nonmonetary assets that do not have commercial substance.


F-10

US Biodefense, Inc.

Notes to Financial Statements


Previously, Opinion 29 required that the accounting for an exchange of a productive asset for a similar productive asset or an equivalent interest in the same or similar productive asset should be based on the recorded amount of the asset relinquished.  Opinion 29 provided an exception to its basis measurement principle (fair value) for exchanges of similar productive assets.  That exception required that some nonmonetary exchanges, although commercially substantive, to be recorded on a carryover basis.  By focusing the exception on exchanges that lack commercial substance, the FASB believes SFAS No. 153 is effective for nonmonetary asset exchanges occurring in fiscal periods beginning after June 15, 2005.  Earlier application is permitted for nonmonetary asset exchanges occurring in fiscal periods beginning after the date of issuance.  The provisions of SFAS No. 153 shall be applied prospectively.  The Company has evaluated the impact of the adoption of SFAS 153, and does not believe the impact will be significant to the Company's overall results of operations or financial position.


In December 2004, the FASB issued SFAS No. 123 (revised 2004), "Share-Based Payment" ("SFAS 123R").  SFAS 123R will provide investors and other users of financial statements with more compete and neutral financial information by requiring that the compensation costs relating to share-based payment transactions be recognized in financial statements.  That cost will be measured based on the fair value of the equity or liability instruments issued  SFAS 123R covers a wide range of share-based compensation arrangements including share options, restricted share plans, performance-based awards, share appreciation rights and employee share purchase plans.  SFAS 123R replaces SFAS No. 123, "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation", and supercedes APB Opinion No. 25, "Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees".  SFAS 123, as originally issued in 1995, established as preferable a fair-value-based method of accounting for share-based payment transactions with employees.  However, that statement permitted entities the option of continuing to apply the guidance in Opinion 25, as long as the footnotes to financial statements disclosed what net income would have been had the preferable fair-value based method been used.  Public entities (other than those filing as small business issuers) will be required to apply SFAS 123R as of the first interim or annual reporting period that begins after June 15, 2005.  The Company has evaluated the impact of the adoption of SFAS 123R and does not believe the impact will be significant to the Company's overall results of operations or financial position.


Note 2 - Notes Payable (Including Related Parties)


As of November 30, 2004, an officer and director of the Company loaned the Company a total of $4,313 to pay for general and administrative expenses.  The loan bears no interest and is due upon demand.  As of November 30, 2004, the amount owed is $4,313.


Note 3 - Deferred Revenues (Including Related Parties)


On May 1, 2004, the Company entered into an agreement with Financialnewsusa.com, Inc., to develop content for its' Biodefense Industry News.  Financialnewsusa.com, Inc. is a related party due to a common officer and director.  The term of the agreement is for twelve months.  Financialewsusa.com, Inc. paid a total of $50,000 for these services.  As of November 30, 2004 $20,833 is reflected as revenues received in advance and will be amortized ratably over the service period.


Note 4 - Income Taxes


The reconciliation of the effective income tax rate to the federal statutory rate for the year ended November 30, 2004 is as follows:


F-11





21






US Biodefense, Inc.

Notes to Financial Statements


Federal income tax rate                      34.0%

Effect of net operating loss                34.0%

Effective income tax rate                    0.00%


Deferred tax assets and liabilities reflect the net effect of temporary differences between the carrying amount of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and amounts used for income tax purposes.  


Net loss carryforward                    $138,564


The Company may offset net operating loss carryforwards against future taxable income through the year 2019.  No tax benefit has been reported in the financial statements as the Company believes that the carry-forward will expire unused.  Accordingly, the potential tax benefits of the net operating loss carry-forwards are offset by valuation allowance of the same amount.


Note 5 - Stockholders' Deficit


The Company is authorized to issue 100,000,000 shares of its $0.001 par value common stock


On August 6, 2003, the Company issued 9,000,000 shares of its $0.001 par value common stock to an individual who is an officer and director as payment for his services for twelve months and as a bonus valued at the fair market value of the services of $135,000.  


On August 6, 2003, the Company issued 1,000,000 shares of its $0.001 par value common stock to an individual for a one year consulting agreement valued at the fair market value of the services of $12,000.


Note 6 - Contracts and Agreements


On April 1, 2003, the Company entered into an employment agreement with an individual who is an officer and director of the Company.  The compensation is $60,000 annually.  The term of the agreement is for one year and is automatically renewed annually.  For the first year's compensation, the Company issued the individual 9,000,000 shares of its $0.001 par value common stock for $135,000. The Company recognized $110,000 as an expense in the year ended November 30, 2003 and prepaid payroll for the unearned portion of $25,000.


Note 7 -  Subsequent Event


On February 15, 2005, the Company entered into a consulting agreement with a one year term which may be extended upon agreement by both parties.  The consultant will assist with the development of its NIH SBIR Grant proposal related to the creation of a Stem Cell Research Center of Excellence.  The consultant will serve as a Scientific Advisor to the Company and will assist with grant writing editing and review of a letter of intent and final proposal for the Stem Cell Center of Excellence.


As compensation for entering into the agreement, the consultant will be paid at the rate of $100 per hour.

Note 8 - Illegal Acts


Section 10A of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended requires that the independent auditor utilize procedures designed to provide reasonable assurance of detecting illegal acts that would have a direct and material effect on the determination of financial statement amounts, and identify related party transactions that are material to the financial statements or otherwise require disclosure.


Section 402 of the Sarbanes Oxley Act of 2002 makes it unlawful for public companies to directly or indirectly extend or maintain credit, or arrange for the extension of credit to their executive officers or directors.  The scope of the prohibition on personal loans to executive officers and directors is not clear at this time, and there is little legislative history about Section 402 and the SEC has not yet issued any interpretive guidance concerning Section 402.


The Company has reviewed all arrangements with their directors and executive officers to determine if any could fall within the scope of a personal loan.  At various times during the year ended November 30, 2004, the Company advanced loans to its' President.  There were three loans which ranged in amount from $30,000 to $45,000, all were repaid within sixty days, and there were no loans outstanding at November 30, 2004.  The loans were issued to cover the cost of anticipated business expense and were re-paid timely and promptly.  The Company has now established a clear policy that prohibits directors and executive officers from using advances, and other business loans for personal purposes.

ITEM 8.  CHANGES IN AND DISAGREEMENTS WITH ACCOUNTANTS ON ACCOUNTING AND FINANCIAL DISCLOSURE


On March 17, 2005, our Board of Directors approved the dismissal of Beckstead and Watts, LLP as our principal certifying accountants.  None of the reports of Beckstead and Watts, LLP on our financial statements contained any adverse opinion or disclaimer of opinion, or was qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope or accounting principles, except as follows: Beckstead and Watts, LLP's report on our financial statements as of and for the year ended November 30, 2003 contained a separate paragraph, stating that:


The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming the Company will continue as a going concern.  As discussed in Note 3 to the financial statements, the Company has had limited operations and have not commenced planned principal operations.  This raises substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern.  Management's plans in regard to these matters are also described in Note 3.  The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.


During our two most recent fiscal years and during any subsequent interim periods preceding the date of termination, there were no disagreements with Beckstead and Watts, LLP on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure, or auditing scope or procedure, which disagreement(s), if not resolved to Beckstead and Watts, LLP's satisfaction, would have caused them to refer to the subject matter of the disagreement(s) in connection with their report; and there were no "reportable events" as defined in Item 304 (a)(1)(v) of the Securities and Exchange Commission's Regulation S-K.


While auditing our financial statements for the year ended November 30, 2004, Beckstead and Watts, LLP notified our management of certain transactions, which may have been made in violation of Section 402 (a) of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002.  Beckstead and Watts, LLP discussed a possible expansion of audit procedures.  In relation to such expanded audit procedures, Beckstead and Watts, LLP proposed a substantial increase in audit fees.


As of March 18, 2005, we subsequently engaged E. Randall Gruber, CPA as our independent accountant for the fiscal year ending November 30, 2004.  During the most recent two fiscal years through March 18, 2005 (the date of engagement), neither we nor anyone engaged on our behalf has consulted with E. Randall Gruber, CPA regarding: (i) either the application of accounting principles to a specified transaction, either completed or proposed; or the type of audit opinion that might be rendered on our financial statements; or (ii) any matter that was either the subject of a disagreement (as defined in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K).


A Form 8-K has been filed with the Commission regarding this matter.

Within 90 days prior to the date of filing of this report, we carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including the Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer, of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures.  Based on this evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures are ineffective for the gathering, analyzing and disclosing the information we are required to disclose in the reports we file under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, within the time periods specified in the SEC's rules and forms.  There have been no significant changes in our internal controls or in other factors that could significantly affect internal controls subsequent to the date of this evaluation.


Our management does not expect that our disclosure controls or internal controls over financial reporting will prevent all errors or all instances of fraud.  A control system, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the control system's objectives will be met.  Further, the design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs.  Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within our company have been detected.  These inherent limitations include the realities that judgments in decision-making can be faulty, and that breakdowns can occur because of simple error or mistake.  Because of the inherent limitation of a cost-effective control system, misstatements due to error or fraud may occur and not be detected.






24








Section 10A of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended requires that the independent auditor utilize procedures designed to provide reasonable assurance of detecting illegal acts that would have a direct and material effect on the determination of financial statement amounts, and identify related party transactions that are material to the financial statements or otherwise require disclosure.


Section 402 of the Sarbanes Oxley Act of 2002 makes it unlawful for public companies to directly or indirectly extend or maintain credit, or arrange for the extension of credit to their executive officers or directors.  The scope of the prohibition on personal loans to executive officers and directors is not clear at this time, and there is little legislative history about Section 402 and the SEC has not yet issued any interpretive guidance concerning Section 402.


We have reviewed all arrangements with their directors and executive officers to determine if any could fall within the scope of a personal loan.  At various times during the year ended November 30, 2004, we advanced loans to our President.  There were three loans which ranged in amount from $30,000 to $45,000.  All three loans were repaid within 60 days of issuance.  As of November 30, 2004 there were no loans outstanding.  The loans were issued to cover the cost of anticipated business expense and were re-paid timely and promptly.  We have now established a clear policy that prohibits directors and executive officers from using advances, and other business loans for personal purposes.
