The Company

Overview

We are a financial consulting company, specializing in providing Nordic and relateother international companies with the best possible conditions to establish themselves on the U.S. market, taking advantage of management’s combined +90 years of experience in the corporate sector, serving in different capacities both domestically and globally. The auditors of our financial statements for our fiscal years ending March 31, 2022 and March 31, 2023 have both expressed substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.

Organizational History

We were founded in 1993 as a subsidiary of PolyMedica Corporation (“PolyMedica”). In June 1996, PolyMedica distributed all of the shares of CardioTech International, Inc.’s common stock, par value $0.01 per share, which PolyMedica owned, to PolyMedica stockholders of record. We were engaged in the business of developing advanced polymer materials for use in medical devices designed for treating a broad range of anatomical sites and its consolidated subsidiaries.disease states. In July 1999, we acquired the assets of Tyndale-Plains-Hunter (“TPH”), a manufacturer of specialty hydrophilic polyurethanes.

The Company

        We areIn April 2001, we acquired Catheter and Disposables Technology, Inc. (“CDT”), a contract manufacturer of advanced disposable medical devices. In April 2003, we acquired Gish Biomedical, Inc. (“Gish”), a manufacturer of single use cardiopulmonary bypass products. In the development of our business model, we reviewed the strategic fit of our various business operations and determined that CDT and Gish did not fit our strategic direction. Gish was sold in July 2007 and CDT was sold in March 2008.

Effective October 26, 2007, pursuant to stockholder approval, we were reincorporated from a Massachusetts corporation to a Delaware corporation. We changed our name from CardioTech International, Inc. to AdvanSource Biomaterials Corporation, effective October 15, 2008.

On November 25, 2019, we entered into an asset purchase agreement (the “Asset Purchase Agreement”) with Mitsubishi Chemical Performance Polymers, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“MCPP”) for the sale of substantially all of our assets for a total purchase price of $7,250,000. The Asset Purchase Agreement was approved by our stockholders on January 21, 2020. As a result, we ceased operating as a publicmanufacturer and seller of advanced polymers on January 31, 2020 (the “Closing Date”). Subsequent to the Closing Date, we became engaged in efforts to identify an (i) operating company since June 1996,to acquire or merge with through an equity-based exchange transaction or (ii) investor interested in purchasing a majority interest in our common stock, whereby either transaction would likely result in a change in control. Although certain opportunities have been investigated to determine whether a potential merger or investment opportunity could add value for the benefit of our shareholders, we have not yet entered into any binding arrangements.

On March 3, 2020, we filed a Certificate of Amendment to the Company’s Certificate of Incorporation, which specializes in developing and manufacturing small bore vascular grafts, or synthetic blood vessels, madeamendment was unanimously approved by our Board of ChronoFlex, a family of polyurethanes that has been demonstratedDirectors, to be biocompatible and biodurable. Vascular grafts are usedchange our name AdvanSource Biomaterials Corporation to replace, bypass or provide a new lining or arterial wall for occluded, damaged, dilated or severely diseased arteries. We are currently applying for Phase II clinical trials in Brazil in an effort to obtain regulatory approval for our layered microporous coronary artery bypass graft tradenamed CardioPass. Our wholly-owned subsidiary, CDT, produces components for medical manufacturers used in products such as catheters and disposable devices. Through our Biomaterials division, we develop, manufacture and market polyurethane-based biomaterials for use in both acute and chronically implanted devices such as stents, artificial hearts, and vascular ports. Additionally, through Gish Biomedical, Inc., another wholly-owned subsidiary, we design, produce and market innovative single-use disposable products and products which have a disposable component. Gish's products include devices for use in cardiac surgery, myocardial management, infusion therapy, and post-operative blood salvage.EKIMAS Corporation.

On November 19, 2004October 12, 2021, we entered into a definitive agreement to acquire CarTika Medical, Inc.,Stock Purchase Agreement (the “SPA”) with Reddington Partners LLC, a private medical device contract manufacturer headquartered in Plymouth, MN. A portion of the considerationCalifornia limited liability company (“Reddington”) providing for the acquisition will consistpurchase of approximately 875,000a total of 5,114,475 shares of our common stock, equalon a post-split basis, or approximately 90% of our total shares of common stock outstanding for total cash consideration of $400,000. Reddington made this purchase in value to $1,662,000 (such amount determined basedtwo tranches on October 12, 2021, and March 15, 2022.

Under the fair market valueterms of the SPA, we effectuated a 1-for 50 reverse stock split on March 11, 2022. Accordingly, on a post-split basis, the shares purchased in connection with the first closing resulted in Reddington owning 422,725 shares of our common stock. As set forth in the SPA, Reddington then purchased from us on March 15, 2022, an additional 4,691,750 shares of our common stock on a post-split basis resulting in Reddington owning 5,114,475 shares of our common stock, or approximately 90% of our total shares of common stock outstanding.

On February 23, 2023, we entered into a Contribution Agreement with Nordicus Partners A/S, a Danish stock corporation, GK Partners ApS (“GK Partners”), Henrik Rouf and Life Science Power House ApS (“LSPH, GK Partners, Rouf and LSPH are collectively referred to herein as the “Sellers”). Pursuant to the Contribution Agreement, the Sellers contributed, transferred, assigned and conveyed to us all right, title and interest in and to one hundred percent (100%) of March 31, 2005) whichthe issued and outstanding capital stock of Nordicus Partners A/S for an aggregate of 2,500,000 shares of our common stock.

Growth Strategy

Risks Related to Our Growth Strategyour Capital Structure

There is no assurance of an active established public trading market, which would adversely affect the ability of the Company’s investors to sell their securities in the public market.

Although the Company’s common stock is registered under the Exchange Act and is traded on the OTC Pink Marketplace, an active trading market for the securities does not yet exist and may not exist or be sustained in the future. The OTC Pink Marketplace is an over-the-counter market that provides significantly less liquidity than the NASDAQ Stock Market. Prices for securities traded solely on the OTC Pink may be difficult to obtain and holders of common stock may be unable to resell their securities at or near their original offering price or at any price. Market prices for the Company’s common stock will be influenced by a number of factors, including:

The Company’s ability to obtain additional financing and the terms thereof;
The Company’s financial position and results of operations;
Any litigation against the Company;
Possible regulatory requirements on the Company’s business;
The issuance of new debt or equity securities pursuant to a future offering;
Competitive developments;
Variations and fluctuations in the Company’s operating results;
Change in financial estimates by securities analysts;
The depth and liquidity of the market for the Company’s common stock;
Investor perceptions of the Company; and
General economic and business conditions.

The Company’s common stock is considered a “penny stock” and may be difficult to sell.

The Company’s common stock is considered to be a “penny stock” since it meets one or more of the definitions in Rules 15g-2 through 15g-6 promulgated under Section 15(g) of the Exchange Act. These include but are not limited to the following: (i) the stock trades at a price less than $5.00 per share; (ii) it is not traded on a “recognized” national exchange; (iii) it is not quoted on the NASDAQ Stock Market, or even if so, has a price less than $5.00 per share; or (iv) it is issued by a company with net tangible assets less than $2.0 million, if in business more than a continuous three years, or with average revenues of less than $6.0 million for the past three years. The principal result or effect of being designated a “penny stock” is that securities broker-dealers cannot recommend the stock but must trade in it on an unsolicited basis.

Additionally, Section 15(g) of the Exchange Act and Rule 15g-2 promulgated thereunder by the SEC require broker-dealers dealing in penny stocks to provide potential investors with a document disclosing the risks of penny stocks and to obtain a manually signed and dated written receipt of the document before effecting any transaction in a penny stock for the investor’s account.

Holders in the Company’s common stock are urged to obtain and read such disclosure carefully before purchasing any shares that are deemed to be “penny stock.” Moreover, Rule 15g-9 requires broker-dealers in penny stocks to approve the account of any investor for transactions in such stocks before selling any penny stock to that investor. This procedure requires the broker-dealer to: (i) obtain from the investor information concerning its financial situation, investment experience and investment objectives; (ii) reasonably determine, based on that information, that transactions in penny stocks are suitable for the investor and that the investor has sufficient knowledge and experience as to be reasonably capable of evaluating the risks of penny stock transactions; (iii) provide the investor with a written statement setting forth the basis on which the broker-dealer made the determination in (ii) above; and (iv) receive a signed and dated copy of such statement from the investor, confirming that it accurately reflects the investor’s financial situation, investment experience and investment objectives. Compliance with these requirements may make it more difficult for holders of the Company’s common stock to resell their shares to third parties or to otherwise dispose of them in the market or otherwise.

The Financial Industry Regulatory Authority, or FINRA, has adopted sales practice requirements that may also limit a stockholder’s ability to buy and sell our stock.

In addition to the “penny stock” rules described above, FINRA has adopted rules that require that, in recommending an investment to a customer, a broker-dealer must have reasonable grounds for believing that the investment is suitable for that customer. Prior to recommending speculative low-priced securities to their non-institutional customers, broker-dealers must make reasonable efforts to obtain information about the customer’s financial status, tax status, investment objectives and other information. Under interpretations of these rules, FINRA believes that there is a high probability that speculative low-priced securities will not be suitable for at least some customers. FINRA requirements make it more difficult for broker-dealers to recommend that their customers buy our common stock, which may limit your ability to buy and sell our stock and have an adverse effect on the market for our shares.

A decline in the price of our common stock could affect our ability to raise additional working capital, it may adversely impact our ability to continue operations and we may go out of business.

A prolonged decline in the price of our common stock could result in a reduction in the liquidity of our common stock and a reduction in our ability to raise capital. Because we may attempt to acquire a significant portion of the funds we need in order to conduct our planned operations through the sale and issuance of equity securities, a decline in the price of our common stock could be detrimental to our liquidity and our operations because the decline may cause investors not to choose to invest in our stock. If we are unable to raise the funds we require for all our planned operations, we may be forced to reallocate funds from other planned uses and we may suffer a significant negative effect on our business plan and operations, including our ability to develop new products and continue our current operations. As a result, our business may suffer, and not be successful and we may go out of business. We also might not be able to meet our financial obligations if we cannot raise enough funds through the sale and issuance of our common stock and we may be forced to go out of business.

The Company does not intend to pay dividends and stockholders may not experience a return on investment without selling their securities.

The Company has never declared or paid, nor does it intend in the foreseeable future to declare or pay, any cash dividends on its common stock. Since the Company intends to retain all future earnings to finance the operation and growth of its business, stockholders will likely need to sell their securities in order to realize a return on their investment, if any.

Unfavorable general economic conditions may materially adversely affect our business.

While it is difficult for us to predict the impact of general economic conditions on our business, these conditions could reduce customer demand for some of our services which could cause our revenue to decline. Also, our customers that are especially reliant on the credit and capital markets being liquid, retail investors having investment capital and other factors which could affect their ability to host successful capital raises and continue as a going concern. Moreover, we rely on obtaining additional capital and/or additional funding to provide working capital to support our operations. We regularly evaluate alternative financing sources. Further changes in the commercial capital markets or in the financial stability of our investors and creditors may impact the ability of our investors and creditors to provide additional financing. For these reasons, among others, if the economic conditions stagnate or decline, our operating results and financial condition could be adversely affected.

If we fail to maintain an effective system of internal control over financial reporting, we may not be able to accurately report our financial results. As a result, current and potential shareholders could lose confidence in our financial reporting, which would harm our business and the trading price of our stock.

We are experiencing rapid growtha development stage company with limited resources. Therefore, we cannot assure investors that could strainwe will be able to maintain effective internal controls over financial reporting based on criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (“COSO”) in Internal Control-Integrated Framework. A material weakness is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting, such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of the company’s annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis. For these reasons, we are considering the costs and benefits associated with improving and documenting our managerialdisclosure controls and procedures and internal controls and procedures, which includes (i) hiring additional personnel with sufficient U.S. GAAP experience and (ii) implementing ongoing training in U.S. GAAP requirements for our CFO and accounting and other resources.finance personnel. If the results of these efforts are not successful, or if material weaknesses are identified in our internal control over financial reporting, our management will be unable to report favorably as to the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting and/or our disclosure controls and procedures, and we could be required to further implement expensive and time-consuming remedial measures and potentially lose investor confidence in the accuracy and completeness of our financial reports which could have an adverse effect on our stock price and potentially subject us to litigation.

Our management has limited experience in operating a public company.

        Since becoming listed

Our executive officers and director have limited experience in Junethe management of 1996 we have grown organically,a publicly traded company. Our management team may not successfully or effectively manage our transition to a public company that will be subject to significant regulatory oversight and through the acquisition of three separate businesses. In July 1999, we acquired the business of Tyndale-Plains Hunter, Ltd.;reporting obligations under federal securities laws. Their limited experience in May 2001, we acquired Catheter and Disposables Technology; and in April 2003, we acquired Gish Biomedical, Inc.

        On November 19, 2004 we entered into a definitive agreement to acquire CarTika Medical, Inc., a private medical device contract manufacturer headquartered in Plymouth, MN. In connectiondealing with the acquisition we are filing this Registration Statement on Form S-1. We expectincreasingly complex laws pertaining to consummate the CarTika acquisition shortly after this registration statement is declared effective. However, there canpublic companies could be no assurances that this acquisition will close and if it does close there can be no assurances that it will be accretive and profitablea significant disadvantage to us as a whole.

        We may make additional acquisitions of complementary medical manufacturing services providersin that bring desired capabilities, customers or geographic coverage and either strengthen our position in our target markets or provide us with a presence in a new market. Although we are not currently negotiating with any additional acquisition targets, it is likely that an increasing amount of their time will be devoted to these activities which will result in less time being devoted to the management and growth of our company. It is possible that we will considerbe required to expand our employee base and hire additional potential acquisitionsemployees, such as a chief financial officer experienced in the future. The risks wepublic company financial reporting, to support our operations as a public company which will increase our operating costs in future periods.

A significant majority of our outstanding ordinary shares are held by a small number of shareholders, which may encounter in pursuing these acquisitions, if any, include expenses associated with, and difficulties in identifying, potential targets, costs associated with acquisitions we ultimately are unable to complete and higher prices for acquired companieshave significantly greater influence on us due to competition for attractive targets. Completing acquisitions also may resultthe size of their shareholdings relative to other shareholders.

As of the date of this Report, Henrik Rouf and GK Partners, one of the Selling Stockholders, beneficially own approximately 55% of the outstanding shares of our common stock when including a warrant to purchase up to 6,000,000 shares of our common stock in dilutionaddition to our existing stockholdersoutstanding shares of our common stock. These major shareholders have significant influence in determining the outcome of any corporate transactions or other matters submitted to our shareholders for approval, including mergers, consolidations and schemes of arrangement, election and removal of directors and other significant corporate actions. They may not act in our best interests or our minority shareholders’ interests. In addition, without the consent of these major shareholders, we could be prevented from entering into transactions that could be beneficial to us. This concentration of ownership may also discourage, delay or prevent a change in control, which could deprive our shareholders of an opportunity to receive a premium for their shares as part of a sale of our company and might reduce the price of our Common Stock. These actions may be taken even if they are opposed by our other shareholders.

We are subject to the periodic reporting requirements of the Exchange Act that will require us to seekincur audit fees and legal fees in connection with the preparation of such reports.

In order to comply with these requirements, our independent registered public accounting firm will have to review our financial statements on a quarterly basis and audit our financial statements on an annual basis. Moreover, our legal counsel will have to review and assist in the preparation of new projects across previously independent facilities.

The costs charged by these professionals for such services cannot be accurately predicted at this time because factors such as the number and type of transactions that we engage in and the complexity of our reports cannot be determined at this time and will have a major effect on the amount of time to be spent by our auditors and attorneys.

Furthermore, if we cease to be a smaller reporting company, our independent registered public accounting firm will be required to report separately on whether it believes that we have maintained, in all material respects, effective internal control over financial reporting. We have not yet commenced any assessment of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting. We expect to incur additional expenses and other synergiesdiversion of management’s time as a result of performing the system and process evaluation, testing and remediation required in order to comply with the management certification and auditor attestation requirements.

We do not have a sufficient number of employees to segregate responsibilities and may be unable to afford increasing our acquisitions,staff or engaging outside consultants or professionals to overcome our lack of employees. During the consolidationcourse of functionsour testing, we may identify other deficiencies that we may not be able to remediate in time to meet the deadline imposed by the Sarbanes-Oxley Act for compliance with the requirements of Section 404.

Moreover, effective internal controls, particularly those related to revenue recognition, are necessary for us to produce reliable financial reports and procedures present significant management challenges.

Such market conditions may materially and adversely affect debt and equity capital markets, which may have a negative impact on our business and operations.

Volatility and dislocation in the capital markets can also create a challenging environment in which to delayraise or abandon our fast growth strategy.

        Our growth strategy will require additional capital for, among other purposes, completing acquisitionsaccess debt capital. The reappearance of companies and customers' product lines and manufacturing assets, integrating acquired companies and assets, acquiring new equipment and maintaining the condition of existing equipment. If cash generated internally is insufficient to fund capital requirements, or if we desire to make acquisitions, we will require additional debt or equity financing. Adequate financing may not be available or, if available, may not be available on terms satisfactory to us. If we raise additional capital by issuing equity or convertible debt securities, the issuance may dilute the share ownership of the existing investors. In addition, we may grant future investors rights that are superiormarket conditions similar to those experienced from 2008 through 2009 for any substantial length of time could make it difficult to extend the maturity of or refinance our existing investors. If we failindebtedness or obtain new indebtedness with similar terms and any failure to obtain sufficient additional capital in the future, we could be forced to curtail our growth strategy by reducing or delaying capital expenditures and acquisitions, selling assets or restructuring or refinancing our indebtedness.

We may not realize the anticipated benefits from the potential CarTika acquisition.

        The integration of CarTika's business, products and personnel into our business may be complex and time-consuming and may disrupt the business of the combined organization. The combined organization will need to overcome significant challenges in order to realize the expected benefits or synergies from the acquisition. These challenges include the timely, efficient and successful execution of a number of post-acquisition events, including integrating CarTika's manufacturing operations and technologies into ours, retaining and assimilating key CarTika personnel, coordinating each company's manufacturing and sales efforts with those of each other, fully utilizing CarTika's clean room facilities and creating uniform standards, controls, procedures, policies and information systems.

        The execution of these post-acquisition events will involve considerable risks and may not be successful. These risks include:

        The combined organization may not succeed in addressing these risks or any other problems encountered in connection with the acquisition. The inability to integrate the operations, technology and personnel of ours and CarTika successfully, or any significant delay in achieving integration,do so could have a material adverse effect on the combined organization after the acquisition and, as a result, on the market price of our common stock.



Risks Related to Our Business

We have incurred substantial operating losses and we may never generate any meaningful revenue or earn any profits.

        Our sales were $16,083,000 for the nine months ended December 31, 2004 and we incurred losses aggregating $968,000 in the same period. We had net losses of $1,515,000 and $963,000 in fiscal 2004 and 2003, respectively. An investor in our shares must assume the riskbusiness. The debt capital that we will never be profitable. None of our coronary artery graft products and technologies have ever been utilized on a large-scale commercial basis. Our ability to generate enough revenues to achieve profits will depend on a variety of factors, many of which are outside our control, including:

A substantial amount of our assets comprise goodwill and other intangibles, and our net income will be reduced if our goodwill becomes impaired.

        As of December 31, 2004, goodwill represented approximately $1,638,000, or 7%, of our total assets and amortizable intangibles represented approximately $824,000, or 4%, of our total assets. Goodwill is generated in our acquisitions when the cost of an acquisition exceeds the fair value of the net tangible and identifiable intangible assets we acquire. Goodwill is no longer amortized under generally accepted accounting principles as a result of SFAS No. 142. Instead, goodwill is subjectavailable to an impairment analysis at least annually based on the fair value of the reporting unit. Amortizable intangible assets are subject to SFAS No. 144, and are subject to periodic reviews for impairment, or as events and circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable. We could be required to recognize reductions in our net income caused by the write-down of goodwill and other intangibles, if impaired, that, if significant, could materially and adversely affect our results of operations.

Our operating results fluctuate significantly. If we fail to meet the expectations of securities analysts or investors, our stock price may decrease. Our operating results have fluctuated in the past from quarter to quarter and are likely to fluctuate significantlyus in the future, if at all, may be at a higher cost and on less favorable terms and conditions than what we currently experience, including being at a higher cost due to a variety of factors, many of which are beyond our control, including:


        As a result of these factors, many of which are difficult to control or predict, as well as the other risk factors discussed in this prospectus, we may experience material adverse fluctuations in our future operating results on a quarterly or annual basis.

The medical device industry is cyclical, and an industry downturn could adversely affect our operating results.

        Business conditions in the medical device industry have rapidly changed between periods of strong and weak demand. The industry is characterized by:

        These factors could harm our business and cause our operating results to suffer.



The failure to complete development of our medical technology, obtain government approvals, including required FDA approvals, or to comply with ongoing governmental regulations could delay or limit introduction of our proposed products, negatively impact our operations and result in failure to achieve revenues or maintain our ongoing business.

        Our research, development and production activities, including the manufacture and marketing of our intended coronary artery bypass graft product, are subject to extensive regulation for safety, efficacy and quality by numerous government authorities in the United States and abroad.

        Before receiving FDA clearance to market our proposed graft, we will have to demonstrate that our grafts are safe and effective on the patient population. While we have done some preliminary animal trials and have seen acceptable results, there can be no assurance that acceptable results will be obtained in human trials. Clinical trials, manufacturing and marketing of medical devices are subject to the rigorous testing and approval process of the FDA and equivalent foreign regulatory authorities. The Federal Food, Drug and Cosmetic Act and other federal, state and foreign statutes and regulations govern and influence the testing, manufacture, labeling, advertising, distribution and promotion of drugs and medical devices. As a result, clinical trials and regulatory approval of the coronary artery bypass graft can take a number of years or longer to accomplish and require the expenditure of substantial financial, managerial and other resources.

        In order to be commercially viable, we must successfully research, develop, obtain regulatory approval, manufacture, market and distribute our grafts. For each device incorporating our artificial grafts, we must successfully meet a number of critical developmental milestones, including:

        The time frame necessary to achieve these developmental milestones may be long and uncertain, and we may not successfully complete these milestones for any of our intended products in development.

        In order to conduct clinical trials that are necessary to obtain approval by the FDA to market a product, it is necessary to receive clearance from the FDA to conduct such clinical trials. The FDA can halt clinical trials at any time for safety reasons or because we or our clinical investigators do not follow the FDA's requirements for conducting clinical trials.rising rate environment. If we are unable to receive clearance to conduct clinical trialsraise or refinance debt, then our equity investors may not benefit from the trials are halted by the FDA,potential for increased returns on equity resulting from leverage and we would not be able to achieve any revenue from such product as it is illegal to sell any medical device for human consumption without FDA approval.

        We are also a medical devices contract manufacturing services provider. Some of the products and components of products that we manufacture may be considered finished medical devices, and the manufacturing processes usedlimited in the production of finished medical devices are subject to FDA inspection and assessment, and must comply with the FDA quality system regulation. The FDA quality system regulation establishes good manufacturing practice requirements for product design, manufacture, management, packaging, labeling, distribution, and installation for medical devices. Additional FDA regulations impose requirements for record keeping, reporting, facility and product registration, product safety and effectiveness, and product tracking. Failure to comply with these regulatory requirements may result in civil and criminal enforcement actions, including financial penalties, seizures, injunctions and other measures. Our products must also comply with state and foreign requirements. Also, in order to comply with regulatory requirements, our customers may wish to audit our operations to evaluate our quality systems.



        In addition, the FDA and state and foreign governmental agencies regulate many of our customers' products as medical devices. FDA approval is required for those products prior to commercialization in the United States, and approval of regulatory authorities in other countries may also be required prior to commercialization in those jurisdictions.

Our markets are subject to technological change and our success depends on our ability to develop and introducemake new products primarilycommitments or to fund existing commitments to our portfolio companies.

Significant changes or volatility in cardiothoracic surgery.

        The cardiothoracic market forthe capital markets may also have a negative effect on the valuations of our products is characterized by:

        To develop new products and designs forinvestments. While most of our cardiothoracic market, we must develop, gain accessinvestments are not publicly traded, applicable accounting standards require us to and use leading technologiesassume as part of our valuation process that our investments are sold in a cost effectiveprincipal market to market participants (even if we plan on holding an investment through its maturity). Significant changes in the capital markets may also affect the pace of our investment activity and timely manner and continue to expandthe potential for liquidity events involving our technical and design expertise. Failure to do so could causeinvestments. Thus, the illiquidity of our investments may make it difficult for us to lose our competitive positionsell such investments to access capital if required, and seriously impact our future revenues.

The number of patients undergoing bypass surgery may continue to decline, resulting in a reduction of our market potential.

        Over the past several years, the total number of patients undergoing bypass surgery has decreased as a result, of new,we could realize significantly less invasive therapies such as pharmacotherapy, angioplasty and stenting. We cannot assure you thatthan the number of patients will not continuevalue at which we have recorded our investments if we were required to decline as further medical advances are introduced. Any future decline in the total number of patients undergoing bypass surgery could result in lost revenue and thereforesell them for liquidity purposes. An inability to raise or access capital could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition andor results of operations.

Risks Relating to our Business and Industry

We are a start-up company, and we may be unable to generate significant revenues and may never become profitable.

We are a start-up company that has not generated revenue to date, and we may incur significant operating losses for the foreseeable future. We may not be able to validate and create our business in a manner that will generate significant revenues. In addition, any revenue that we may generate may be insufficient for us to become profitable.

In particular, potential investors should be aware that we have not proven that we can raise sufficient capital in the public and/or private markets; build a pipeline of businesses seeking services from us, develop and maintain relationships with key strategic partners that will be necessary to optimize the market value of our services; respond effectively to competitive pressures; or recruit and build a management team to accomplish our business plan. If we are unable to accomplish these goals, our business is unlikely to succeed.

Our future capital needs are uncertain and our independent registered public accounting firm has expressed in its report on our 2023 audited financial statements a substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. Our ability to continue as a going concern is dependent on our ability to raise additional capital and our operations could be curtailed if we are unable to obtain the required additional funding when needed. We may not be able to do so when necessary, and/or the terms of any financings may not be advantageous to us.

Our financial statements for the fiscal years ended March 31, 2023 and 2022, attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1 to this Report have been prepared assuming we will continue to operate as a going concern. However, due to our recurring losses from operations, and working capital deficiency, there is substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. Because we expect to continue to experience negative cash flow, our ability to continue as a going concern is subject to intense competitionour ability to obtain necessary funding from outside sources, including obtaining additional funding from the sale of our securities, grants or other forms of financing. Our continued negative cash flow increases the difficulty in completing such sales or securing alternative sources of funding, and riskthere can be no assurances that we will be able to obtain such funding on favorable terms or at all. If we are unable to obtain sufficient financing from the sale of obsolescence.

        Companies with significantly greaterour securities or from alternative sources, we may be required to reduce, defer or discontinue certain of our research and development and operating activities or we may not be able to continue as a going concern. As a result, our independent registered public accounting firm has expressed in its auditors’ report on the financial technical, research, marketing, salesstatements attached as Exhibit 99.1 to this Report for the fiscal years ended March 31, 2023 and distribution and other resources are working on products similar2022, a substantial doubt regarding our ability to ourscontinue as well as other competing products or therapies, including stenting, angioplasty and pharmacological therapies. We cannot assure youa going concern. Our financial statements do not include any adjustments that our competitors or future competitors will not succeed in developing or marketing technologies and products that demonstrate better safety or effectiveness, clinical results, or ease of use than our products or that such competitors will not succeed in obtaining regulatory approval for introducing or commercializing any such products prior to us. Anymight result from the outcome of the above competitive developmentsuncertainty regarding our ability to continue as a going concern. If we cannot continue as a going concern, our shareholders may lose their entire investment in our Common Stock. Future reports from our independent registered public accounting firm may also contain statements expressing doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.

Because of our limited operating history, we may not be able to correctly estimate our future operating expenses, which could lead to cash shortfalls.

We have only a limited operating history from which to evaluate our business. We have not generated any revenues to date. Accordingly, our prospects must be considered in light of the risks, expenses, and difficulties frequently encountered by companies in an early stage of development. We may not be successful in addressing such risks, and the failure to do so could have a material adverse effect on our business, operating results and financial condition.

Because of this limited operating history and because of the emerging nature of the markets in which we compete, our historical financial data is of limited value in estimating future operating expenses. Our budgeted expense levels are based in part on our expectations concerning future revenues.

We may be unable to adjust our operations in a timely manner to compensate for any unexpected shortfall in revenues. Accordingly, a significant shortfall in demand for our product could have an immediate and material adverse effect on our business, results of operations, and financial condition.

Our operating results may fluctuate as a result of a number of factors, many of which are outside of our control. For these reasons, comparing our operating results on a period-to-period basis may not be meaningful, and you should not rely on our past results as any indication of our future performance. Our quarterly and annual expenses are likely to increase substantially over the next several years, and revenues from the sale of our services may not meet our expectations. Our operating results in future quarters may fall below expectations. Any of these events could adversely impact our business prospects and make it more difficult to raise additional equity capital at an acceptable price per share. Each of the risk factors listed in this “Risk Factors” section may affect our operating results.

13

Our business may change and evolve over time. Furthermore, we compete in an unpredictable industry against companies in the same business that have substantially more capital than we do and have existing client relationships that are well established. Our ability to succeed depends on our ability to execute our business plan, including attracting customers and investors should we pursue acquisitions of other consulting companies. As such, our actual operating results may differ substantially from our projections.

We expect to need additional substantial capital to fund our growing operations, and if we are unable to obtain sufficient capital, we may be forced to limit the scope of our operations.

We expect that for our business to grow we will need substantial additional working capital should we pursue acquisitions of other financial consulting companies. If adequate additional debt and/or equity financing is not available on reasonable terms or at all, we may not be able to continue to expand our business or pay our outstanding obligations, and we will have to modify our business plans accordingly. These factors would have a material adverse effect on our future operating results and our financial condition.

We will operate in an ever-evolving industry and changes to it can have a material effect on our business model which makes it difficult to evaluate our business and prospects.

We expect to derive nearly all of our revenue from consulting services. Our business model is evolving and is distinct from many other companies in our industry, and it may not be successful. As a result of these factors, the future revenue and income potential of our business is uncertain. Any evaluation of our business and our prospects must be considered in light of these factors and the risks and uncertainties often encountered by companies in an immature industry with an evolving business model such as ours. Some of these risks and uncertainties relate to our ability to:

acquisition of potential customers;
maintain and expand customer relationships once established;
raise capital at attractive costs, or at all;
respond effectively to competition and potential negative effects of competition on profit margins;
attract and retain qualified management, employees and independent service providers; and
respond to government regulations relating to the Internet, personal data protection, email, software technologies and other aspects of our business.

If we are unable to address these risks, our business, results of operations and prospects could suffer.

If we do not effectively manage our anticipated growth, our operating performance will suffer, and we may lose potential customers.

We could experience rapid growth in our operations. This anticipated growth could place significant demands on our management and our operational and financial infrastructure. In particular, rapid growth, if realized, could make it more difficult for us to execute on our business plan.

In addition, our personnel, systems, procedures and controls, once implemented, may be inadequate to support our anticipated future operations. The improvements which could be required to manage our anticipated growth could require us to make significant expenditures, expand, train and manage our employee base and allocate valuable management resources. If we fail to effectively manage our anticipated growth, our operating performance will suffer and we could lose potential customers and key personnel.

14

We need to hire and retain additional qualified personnel to grow and manage our business. If we are unable to attract and retain qualified personnel, our business and growth could be seriously harmed.

Our performance depends on the talents and efforts of our key employees, who are charged with daily operations and strategy to reach commercial success. Our future success will depend on our ability to attract, retain and motivate highly skilled personnel in all areas of our organization and, in particular, in our engineering/technology, sales and marketing, media, finance and legal/regulatory teams. We plan to continue to grow our business and will need to hire additional personnel to support this growth. We have found it difficult from time to time to locate and hire suitable personnel. If we experience similar difficulties in the future, our growth may be hindered. Qualified individuals are in high demand, and we may incur significant costs to attract and retain them. Employees may be more likely to leave us following our initial public offering as a result of the establishment of a public market for our common stock. If we are unable to attract and retain the personnel we need to succeed, our business and growth could be harmed.

If we fail to compete effectively against other competitors, we could fail to attract customers and we may never generate revenues.

The market for financial consulting services is intensely competitive. We expect this competition to continue to increase in the future.

If we are unable to price our services appropriately, our margins and revenue may decline.

Our clients purchase our services according to a variety of pricing formulae. Sometimes these include formulae based on pay for performance, meaning clients pay only after we have delivered the desired result to them. Regardless of how a given client pays us, we ordinarily pay the vast majority of the costs associated with delivering our services to our clients according to contracts and other arrangements that do not always condition payment to vendors upon receipt of payments from our clients. This means we typically pay for the costs of providing our services before we receive payment from clients. Additionally, certain of our services costs are highly variable and may fluctuate significantly during each calendar month. Accordingly, we run the risk of not being able to recover the entire cost of our services from clients if pricing or other terms negotiated prior to the performance of services prove less than the cost of performing such services.

Limitations on director and officer liability and our indemnification of our officers and directors may discourage stockholders from bringing suit against a director.

Our certificate of incorporation and bylaws provide, as permitted by Delaware corporation law, that a director or officer shall not be personally liable to us or our stockholders for breach of fiduciary duty as a director or officer, except for acts or omissions which involve intentional misconduct, fraud or knowing violation of law. These provisions may discourage stockholders from bringing suit against a director for breach of fiduciary duty and may reduce the likelihood of derivative litigation brought by stockholders on our behalf against a director. In addition, our amended and restated articles of incorporation and bylaws require indemnification of directors and officers to the fullest extent permitted by Delaware law.

If we fail to maintain an effective system of internal control over financial reporting, this may result in material misstatements of our consolidated financial statements or cause us to fail to meet our periodic reporting obligations.

As a public company, we are required to provide management’s attestation on internal control over financial reporting. Management may not be able to effectively and timely implement controls and procedures that adequately respond to the increased regulatory compliance and reporting requirements that will be applicable after the Merger. If we are not able to implement the additional requirements of Section 404(a) of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act in a timely manner or with adequate compliance, we may not be able to assess whether our internal control over financial reporting is effective, which may subject us to adverse regulatory consequences and could harm investor confidence.

In order to maintain and improve the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting, we have expended, and anticipate that we will continue to expend, significant resources, including accounting-related costs and significant management oversight.

Our significant increased expenses and administrative burdens as a public company could have an adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

We will face increased legal, accounting, administrative and other costs and expenses as a public company that we did not incur as a private company. The Sarbanes-Oxley Act, including the requirements of Section 404, as well as rules and regulations subsequently implemented by the SEC, the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act of 2010 and the rules and regulations promulgated and to be promulgated thereunder, the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board and the securities exchanges, impose additional reporting and other obligations on public companies. Compliance with public company requirements will increase our costs and make certain activities more time-consuming. A number of those requirements require it to carry out activities we have not done previously. In addition, expenses associated with SEC reporting requirements will be incurred. Furthermore, if any issues in complying with those requirements are identified (for example, if the auditors identify a significant deficiency or additional material weaknesses in the internal control over financial reporting), we could incur additional costs to rectify those issues, and the existence of those issues could adversely affect its reputation or investor perceptions. In addition, we cannot assure you that productswill purchase director and officer liability insurance, which has substantial additional premiums. The additional reporting and other obligations imposed by these rules and regulations increase legal and financial compliance costs and the costs of related legal, accounting and administrative activities. Advocacy efforts by stockholders and third parties may also prompt additional changes in governance and reporting requirements, which could further increase costs.

Risks Related to Legal Matters and Regulations

Privacy concerns and laws, or technologies introduced subsequentother regulations, may adversely affect our business.

State and local governments and agencies in the jurisdictions in which we operate, and in which customers operate, have adopted, are considering adopting, or may adopt laws and regulations regarding the collection, use, storage, processing, and disclosure of information regarding consumers and other individuals, which could impact our ability to offer services in certain jurisdictions. Laws and regulations relating to the commercializationcollection, use, disclosure, security, and other processing of individuals’ information can vary significantly from jurisdiction to jurisdiction. The costs of compliance with, and other burdens imposed by, laws, regulations, standards, and other obligations relating to privacy, data protection, and information security are significant. In addition, some companies, particularly larger enterprises, often will not contract with vendors that do not meet these rigorous standards. Accordingly, the failure, or perceived inability, to comply with these laws, regulations, standards, and other obligations may limit the use and adoption of our products will not renderand services, reduce overall demand, lead to regulatory investigations, litigation, and significant fines, penalties, or liabilities for actual or alleged noncompliance, or slow the pace at which we close sales transactions, any of which could harm our products obsolete.business. Moreover, if we or any of our employees or contractors fail or are believed to fail to adhere to appropriate practices regarding customers’ data, it may damage our reputation and brand.

We have limited manufacturing experience

Additionally, existing laws, regulations, standards, and if our coronary bypass graft is approved, weother obligations may not be able to manufacture sufficient quantities at an acceptable cost.

        We remaininterpreted in new and differing manners in the researchfuture and development phasemay be inconsistent among jurisdictions. Future laws, regulations, standards, and other obligations, and changes in the interpretation of existing laws, regulations, standards, and other obligations could result in increased regulation, increased costs of compliance and penalties for non-compliance, and limitations on data collection, use, disclosure, and transfer for us and our arterial grafts. Accordingly, if our productscustomers. Further, California adopted the California Consumer Privacy Protection Act (“CCPA”) and the California State Attorney General has begun enforcement actions. Further, on November 3, 2020, California voters approved the California Privacy Rights Act (“CPRA”). Although we initiated a compliance program designed to comply with CCPA after consulting with outside privacy counsel, we remain exposed to ongoing legal risks related to the CCPA and the expansion of the CCPA under the CPRA, which becomes effective January 1, 2023. The costs of compliance with, and other burdens imposed by, laws and regulations relating to privacy, data protection, and information security that are approved for commercial sale,applicable to the businesses of customers may adversely affect ability and willingness to process, handle, store, use, and transmit certain types of information, such as demographic and other personal information.

In addition to government activity, privacy advocacy groups, the technology industry and other industries have established or may establish various new, additional or different self-regulatory standards that may place additional burdens on technology companies. Customers may expect that we will needmeet voluntary certifications or adhere to establish the capability to commercially manufacture our product(s) in accordance with FDA and other regulatory requirements. We have limited experience in establishing, supervising and conducting commercial manufacturing.standards established by them or third parties. If we failare unable to adequately establish, supervise and conduct all aspects of the manufacturing processes, we may not be



able to commercialize our products. We do not presently own manufacturing facilities necessary to provide clinicalmaintain these certifications or commercial quantities of our intended graft. We may not be able to obtain such facilities at a economically feasible cost, or at all.

        We presently rely on a third party contractor, LeMaitre Vascular Products, Inc., to manufacture all of our coronary graftsmeet these standards, it could reduce demand for our limited use. This exposes us to the risk of not being able to directly oversee the production and quality of the manufacturing process. This contractor may experience regulatory compliance difficulty, mechanical shut downs, employee strikes, or any other unforeseeable events that may delay production. Furthermore, LeMaitre has developed an expertise in the manufacturing process with machinery that may not get transferred to us. If we elect to produce the grafts ourselves, this may delay productionsolutions and adversely affect our business. Pursuant

Risks Related to our Securities

The warrants are being accounted for as a warrant liability and are being recorded at fair value upon issuance with changes in fair value each period reported in earnings, which may have an agreement,adverse effect on the market price of our common stock.

As described in our financial statements included in this prospectus, we have requestedare accounting for our issued and outstanding warrants as a warrant liability and are recording that LeMaitre actliability at fair value upon issuance and are recording any subsequent changes in good faith to transfer the technology to us in exchange for payment of personnel time plus 40% uplift. Such transfer has not yet occurred.

        In connection with the coronary bypass graft, we know of only one other company, CABG Medical Inc., that is developing similar grafts. CABG Medical is now listed in the NASDAQfair value as "CABG," having raised $30,250,000 in an initial public offering on December 13, 2004.

We depend on outside suppliers and subcontractors, and our production and reputation could be harmed if they are unable to meet our volume and quality requirements and alternative sources are not available.

        Our outside suppliers may fail to develop and supply us with products and components on a timely basis, or may supply us with products and components that do not meet our quality, quantity or cost requirements. If any of these problems occur, we may be unable to obtain substitute sources of these products and components on a timely basis or on terms acceptable to us, which could harm our ability to manufacture our own products and components profitably or on time. In addition, if the processes that our suppliers use to manufacture products and components are proprietary, we may be unable to obtain comparable components from alternative suppliers.

A significant portion of the revenueend of certaineach period for which earnings are reported. The impact of our divisions comes from relatively few large customers, and any decreasechanges in sales to these customers could harm our operating results.

        The medical device industry is concentrated, with relatively few companies accounting for a large percentage of sales in the surgical, interventional and cardiovascular markets that are targeted by our disposable medical device and contract manufacturing operations. Accordingly, our revenue and profitability are dependentfair value on our relationships with a limited number of large medical device companies. We are likely to continue to experience a high degree of customer concentration in our disposable medical device and contract manufacturing operations, particularly if there is further consolidation within the medical device contract manufacturing industry. We cannot assure you that there will not be a loss or reduction in business from one or more of our major customers. In addition, we cannot assure you that revenues from our customers that have accounted for significant revenues in the past, either individually or as a group, will reach or exceed historical levels in any future period. The loss or a significant reduction of business from any of our major customers would adversely affect our results of operations.

Our ability to grow and sustain growth levelsearnings may be adversely affected by the recent slowdown in the U.S. economy.

        Due to the recent decrease in corporate profits, capital spending and consumer confidence, we have experienced weakness in certain of our end markets. We are primarily susceptible when clients stop placing orders for us to build prototypes or develop certain specialized medical devices through our contract manufacturing operations. The medical commercial markets, including bio-medical research and development and medical device manufacturing, have been affected by the recent



slowdown in the U.S. economy. If the economic slowdown continues and capital spending for research and development from our clients decreases, our business, financial condition and results of operations may be adversely affected.

We could be harmed by litigation involving patents and other intellectual property rights.

        None of our patents or other intellectual property rights has been successfully challenged to date. However, in the future, we could be accused of infringing the intellectual property rights of other third parties. We also have certain indemnification obligations to customers with respect to the infringement of third party intellectual property rights by our products. No assurance can be provided that any future infringement claims by third parties or claims for indemnification by customers or end users of our products resulting from infringement claims will not be asserted or that assertions of infringement, if proven to be true, will not harm our business.

        In the event of any adverse ruling in any intellectual property litigation, we could be required to pay substantial damages, cease the manufacturing, use and sale of infringing products, discontinue the use of certain processes or obtain a license from the third party claiming infringement with royalty payment obligations by us.

        Any litigation relating to the intellectual property rights of third parties, whether or not determined in our favor or settled by us, is costly and may divert the efforts and attention of our management and technical personnel.

We may not be able to protect our intellectual property rights adequately.

        Our ability to compete is affected by our ability to protect our intellectual property rights. We rely on a combination of patents, trademarks, copyrights, trade secrets, confidentiality procedures and non-disclosure and licensing arrangements to protect our intellectual property rights. Despite these efforts, we cannot be certain that the steps we take to protect our proprietary information will be adequate to prevent misappropriation of our technology, or that our competitors will not independently develop technology that is substantially similar or superior to our technology. More specifically, we cannot assure you that any future applications will be approved, or that any issued patents will provide us with competitive advantages or will not be challenged by third parties. Nor can we assure you that, if challenged, our patents will be found to be valid or enforceable, or that the patents of others will not have an adverse effect on our abilitybalance sheet and statement of operations or the market price of the Common stock.

We have never paid cash dividends on our capital stock and do not anticipate paying dividends in the foreseeable future.

We have never paid cash dividends on our capital stock and currently intend to doretain any future earnings to fund the growth of our business. Furthermore, othersAny determination to pay dividends in the future will be at the discretion of the board of directors and will depend on financial condition, operating results, capital requirements, general business conditions and other factors that the board may independently develop similar products or processes, duplicate our products or processes or design their products arounddeem relevant. As a result, capital appreciation, if any, patents that mayof common stock will be issued to us.the sole source of gain for the foreseeable future.

Our future success depends on the continued service of management, engineeringstock price will be volatile, and sales personnel and our ability to identify, hire and retain additional personnel.

        Our success depends, to a significant extent, upon the efforts and abilities of Dr. Michael Szycher, our president and chief executive officer, and other members of senior management. The loss of the services of one or more of our senior management or other key employees could adversely affect our business. We do not maintain key person life insurance on any of our officers, employees or consultants.

        There is intense competition for qualified employees in the medical industry, particularly for highly skilled design, applications and engineers and sales people. Weyou may not be able to continue to attract and retain technologists, managers,sell shares at or other qualified personnel necessary forabove the development of our business or to replace qualified individuals who could leave usprice at any time in the future. Our anticipated growth is expected to place increased demands on our resources, and will likely require the addition of new management and engineering staff as well as the development of additional expertise



by existing management employees. If we lose the services of or fail to recruit engineers or other technical and management personnel, our business could be harmed.

Periods of rapid growth and expansion could place a significant strain on our resources, including our employee base.

        To manage our possible future growth effectively, we will be required to continue to improve our operational, financial and management systems. In doing so, we will periodically implement new software and other systems that will affect our internal operations regionally or globally. Presently, we are upgrading our enterprise resource planning software to integrate our operations. The conversion process is complex and requires, among other things, that data from our existing system be made compatible with the upgraded system. During the transition to this upgrade, we could experience delays in ordering materials, inventory tracking problems and other inefficiencies, which could cause delays in shipments of products to our customers.

        Future growth will also require us to successfully hire, train, motivate and manage our employees. In addition, our continued growth and the evolution of our business plan will require significant additional management, technical and administrative resources. We may not be able to effectively manage the growth and evolution of our current business.

We are exposed to product liability and clinical and pre-clinical liability risks which could place a substantial financial burden on us, if we are sued. Although we have 5 million dollars in product liability insurance coverage, that amount may not be sufficient to cover all potential claims made against us.

        Our business exposes us to potential product liability and other liability risks that are inherent in the testing, manufacturing and marketing of medical products. We cannot assure you that such potential claims will not be asserted against us. In addition, the use in our clinical trials of medical products that our potential collaborators may develop and the subsequent sale of these products by us or our potential collaborators may cause us to bear a portion of or all product liability risks. A successful liability claim or series of claims brought against us could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

        We cannot assure you that we will be able to obtain or maintain adequate product liability insurance on acceptable terms, if at all, or that such insurance will provide adequate coverage against our potential liabilities. Furthermore, our current and potential partners with whom we have collaborative agreements or our future licensees may not be willing to indemnify us against these types of liabilities and may not themselves be sufficiently insured or have a net worth sufficient to satisfy any product liability claims. Claims or losses in excess of any product liability insurance coverage that may be obtained by us could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

We may be affected by environmental laws and regulations.

        We are subject to a variety of laws, rules and regulations in the United States related to the use, storage, handling, discharge and disposal of certain chemical materials such as isocyanates, alcohols, dimethylacetamide, and glycols used in our research and manufacturing process. Any of those regulations could require us to acquire expensive equipment or to incur substantial other expenses to comply with them. If we incur substantial additional expenses, product costs could significantly increase. Our failure to comply with present or future environmental laws, rules and regulations could result in fines, suspension of production or cessation of operations.



If we are unable to complete our assessments as to the adequacy of our internal controls over financial reporting as required by Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, investors could lose confidence in the reliability of our financial statements, which could result in a decrease in the valueshares of our common stock.stock in this registration statement are purchased.

        As directed by Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, the Securities and Exchange Commission adopted rules requiring public companies to include a report of management on the company's internal control over financial reporting in their annual reports on Form 10-K. This report is required to contain an assessment by management of the effectiveness of such company's internal controls over financial reporting. In addition, the public accounting firm auditing a public company's financial statements must attest to and report on management's assessment of the effectiveness of the company's internal controls over financial reporting. While we are expending significant resources in developing the necessary documentation and testing procedures required by Section 404, there is a risk that we will not comply with all of the requirements imposed by Section 404. If we fail to implement required new or improved controls, we may be unable to comply with the requirements of Section 404 in a timely manner. This could result in an adverse reaction in the financial markets due to a loss of confidence in the reliability of our financial statements, which could cause the market

The trading price of our common stock to decline and make it more difficult for us to finance our operations.

We face the risk of financial exposure to product liability claims alleging that the use of devices that incorporate our products resulted in adverse effects.

        We currently assist in the development of certain medical productswarrants will be volatile and prototypes for third parties, including components in other products. Our contract manufacturing operation produces components for medical manufacturers used in products such as catheters and disposable devices. Product liability risks may exist even for those medical devices that have received regulatory approval for commercial sale or even for products undergoing regulatory review. We currently carry 5 million dollars in product liability insurance. Any defects in our products used in these devices could result in significant product liability costs to us, which may exceed 5 million dollars. We do not currently carry recall insurance and we may be subject to significant recall costswide fluctuations in the eventresponse to various factors, some of a recall.which are beyond our control. These factors include:

issuance of new or updated research or reports by securities analysts or changed recommendations for the industry in general;
announcements of significant acquisitions, strategic partnerships, joint ventures, collaborations or capital commitments;
operating and share price performance of other companies in the industry or related markets;
the timing and magnitude of investments in the growth of our business;
actual or anticipated changes in laws and regulations;
additions or departures of key management or other personnel;
increased labor costs;
disputes or other developments related to intellectual property or other proprietary rights, including litigation;
the ability to market new and enhanced solutions on a timely basis;

        The market price of our common stock has fluctuated significantly to date. In the past year, our stock price ranged from $1.72 to $5.10. The future market price of our common stock may also fluctuate significantly due to:


In addition, the stock market in recent years hasgeneral, and the stock prices of technology companies in particular, have experienced extreme price and volume fluctuations that have affected the market prices of many medical and biotechnology companies. These fluctuations have often been unrelated or disproportionate to the operating performance of companies in ourthose companies. Broad market and industry and could harmfactors may seriously affect the market price of our common stock.stock, regardless of actual operating performance. In addition, in the past, following periods of volatility in the overall market and the market price of a particular company’s securities, securities class action litigation has often been instituted against these companies. This litigation, if instituted, could result in substantial costs and a diversion of management’s attention and resources.

However, the total number ofSeptember 5, 2023, we have 10,876,248 shares of our common stock issued and outstanding doesoutstanding. In addition, we have agreed to register under the terms of this registration statement the shares of common stock to purchase shares of our common stock. We cannot predict the size of future issuances of common stock or securities convertible into common stock or the effect, if any, that future issuances or sales of shares of common stock will have on the market price of common stock. Sales of substantial amounts of common stock, or the perception that such sales could occur, may adversely affect prevailing market prices of common stock.

If securities or industry analysts do not publish or cease publishing research or reports about us, our business, or our market, or if they change their recommendations regarding our securities adversely, the price and trading volume of March 31, 2005,our securities could decline.

The trading market for our securities will be influenced by the research and reports that industry or securities analysts may publish about us, our business, market or competitors. Securities and industry analysts do not currently, and may never, publish research on us. If no securities or industry analysts commence coverage of us, our share price and trading volume would likely be negatively impacted. If any of the analysts who may cover us change their recommendation regarding our shares of common stock adversely, or provide more favorable relative recommendations about our competitors, the price of our shares of common stock would likely decline. If any analyst who may cover us were to cease coverage of us or fail to regularly publish reports on us, we had outstandingcould lose visibility in the financial markets, which in turn could cause our share price or trading volume to decline.

Our bylaws include a forum selection clause, which could limit our stockholders’ ability to obtain a favorable judicial forum for disputes with us, remove current management or to be acquired by a third party.

Our bylaws require that, unless we consent in writing to the selection of an alternative forum, either (i) the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware is to be the sole and exclusive forum for (a) any derivative action or proceeding brought on our behalf, (b) any action asserting a claim of breach of a fiduciary duty owed by any of our directors, officers or other employees to us or our stockholders, (c) any action asserting a claim arising pursuant to any provision of the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware or our bylaws or (d) any action or proceeding asserting a claim governed by the internal affairs doctrine or (ii) the federal district court in the State of Delaware will be the exclusive forum for a cause of action arising under the Securities Act and the Exchange Act. In addition, our bylaws could make it more difficult for a third party to acquire us or to remove current management through provisions that preclude cumulative voting in the election of directors and that allow our bylaws to be adopted, amended or repealed by our board of directors.

This exclusive forum provision will apply to other state and federal law claims including actions arising under the Securities Act (although our stockholders will not be deemed to have waived our compliance with the federal securities laws and the rules and regulations thereunder). Section 22 of the Securities Act, however, creates concurrent jurisdiction for federal and state courts over all suits brought to enforce any duty or liability created by the Securities Act or the rules and regulations thereunder. Accordingly, there is uncertainty as to whether a court would enforce such a forum selection provision as written in connection with claims arising under the Securities Act. Any person or entity purchasing or otherwise acquiring any interest in shares of our capital stock options, warrantsis deemed to have notice of and additional investment rightsconsented to purchase approximately 8,712,112the foregoing provisions. This forum selection provision in our bylaws may limit our stockholders’ ability to obtain a favorable judicial forum for disputes with us. It is also possible that, notwithstanding the forum selection clause included in our bylaws, a court could rule that such a provision is inapplicable or unenforceable.

USE OF PROCEEDS

This prospectus relates to shares of our common stock the exercise price of which range between $0.28 per share to $5.40 per share, and we have reserved shares of our common stock for issuance in connection with the potential exercise thereof. To the extent such options, warrants or additional investment rights are exercised, the holders of our common stock will experience further dilution. Stockholders will also experience dilution upon the exercise of options granted under our stock option plans and upon the consummation of the CarTika acquisition, of which this registration statement is a part. In addition, in the event that any future financing or consideration for a future acquisition, should be in the form of, be convertible into or exchangeable for, equity securities investors will experience additional dilution.

        The exercise of the outstanding derivative securities, will reduce the percentage of common stock held by our current stockholders. Further, the terms on which we could obtain additional capital during the life of the derivative securities may be adversely affected,offered and it should be expected that the holders of the derivative securities would exercise them at a time when we would be able to obtain equity capital on terms more favorable than those provided for by such derivative securities. As a result, any issuance of additional shares of common stock may cause our current stockholders to suffer significant dilution which may adversely affect the market.

        In addition to the above referenced shares of common stock which may be issued without stockholder approval, we have 5,000,000 shares of authorized preferred stock, the terms of which may be fixed by our Board. We presently have 500,000 issued and no outstanding shares of preferred stock and while we have no present plans to issue any additional shares of preferred stock, our Board has the authority, without stockholder approval, to create and issue one or more series of such preferred stock and to determine the voting, dividend and other rights of holders of such preferred stock. The issuance of any of such series of preferred stock may have an adverse effect on the holders of common stock.

Overview

We were founded in 1993 as a subsidiary of preferredPolyMedica Corporation (“PolyMedica”). In June 1996, PolyMedica distributed all of the shares of CardioTech International, Inc.’s common stock, may delay, defer or preventpar value $0.01 per share, which PolyMedica owned, to PolyMedica stockholders of record. We were engaged in the business of developing advanced polymer materials for use in medical devices designed for treating a changebroad range of anatomical sites and disease states. In July 1999, we acquired the assets of Tyndale-Plains-Hunter, a manufacturer of specialty hydrophilic polyurethanes.

In April 2001, we acquired Catheter and Disposables Technology, Inc. (“CDT”), a contract manufacturer of advanced disposable medical devices. In April 2003, we acquired Gish Biomedical, Inc. (“Gish”), a manufacturer of single use cardiopulmonary bypass products. In the development of our business model, we reviewed the strategic fit of our various business operations and determined that CDT and Gish did not fit our strategic direction. Gish was sold in control becauseJuly 2007 and CDT was sold in March 2008.

Effective October 26, 2007, we were reincorporated from a Massachusetts corporation to a Delaware corporation. We changed our name from CardioTech International, Inc. to AdvanSource Biomaterials Corporation, effective October 15, 2008.

On November 25, 2019, we entered into an asset purchase agreement (the “Asset Purchase Agreement”) with Mitsubishi Chemical Performance Polymers, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“MCPP”) for the terms of any issued preferred stock could potentially prohibit our consummation of any acquisition, reorganization, sale of substantially all of our assets liquidationfor a total purchase price of $7,250,000. The Asset Purchase Agreement was approved by our stockholders on January 21, 2020. As a result, we ceased operating as a manufacturer and seller of advanced polymers on January 31, 2020 (the “Closing Date”). Subsequent to the Closing Date, we became engaged in efforts to identify an (i) operating company to acquire or other extraordinary corporatemerge with through an equity-based exchange transaction withoutor (ii) investor interested in purchasing a majority interest in our common stock, whereby either transaction would likely result in a change in control.

On March 3, 2020, we filed a Certificate of Amendment to our Certificate of Incorporation to change our name from AdvanSource Biomaterials Corporation to EKIMAS Corporation.

On October 12, 2021, we entered into a Stock Purchase Agreement (the “SPA”) with Reddington Partners LLC, a California limited liability company (“Reddington”) providing for the approvalpurchase of the holdersa total of the outstanding5,114,475 of our common stock, on a post-split basis, or approximately 90% of our total shares of preferred stock. In addition, the issuancecommon stock outstanding for total cash consideration of preferred stock could have a dilutive effect$400,000. Reddington purchased in two tranches on our stockholders.October 12, 2021, and March 15, 2022.

        Our stockholders must give substantial advance notice prior

Pursuant to the relevant meeting to nominateSPA, we effectuated a candidate for director or present1-for 50 reverse stock split on March 11, 2022 (the “Reverse Split”). Accordingly, on a proposal to our stockholders at a meeting. These notice requirements could inhibit a takeover by delaying stockholder action. In addition, our bylaws and Massachusetts law provide for staggered board members with each member elected for three years. In addition, directors may be removed by stockholders only for cause and by a vote of 80% of the stock.



OUR BUSINESS

        CardioTech International, Inc. was founded in 1993 as a subsidiary of PolyMedical Corporation ("PMI"). In June 1996, PMI distributed all ofpost-split basis, the shares of CardioTech's common stock, par value $.01 per share, which PMI owned, to PMI stockholders of record as of June 3, 1996. CardioTech is headquartered in Wilmington, Massachusetts where its biomaterial division is located; operates contract research and development services and outsourced manufacturing from its CDT facility in Plymouth, Minnesota; and manufactures and sells products used in open heart surgery, vascular access and orthopedic surgery from its Gish facility in Rancho Santa Margarita, California. CardioTech has managed its business in fiscal 2005 and 2004 on the basis of one reportable operating segment: Medical Device Manufacturing and Sales. However, within this segment CardioTech serves a variety of customer needs.

        CardioTech is using its proprietary manufacturing technology to develop and manufacture small bore vascular grafts, or synthetic blood vessels, made of ChronoFlex, a family of polyurethanes that has been demonstrated to be biocompatible and non-toxic. Vascular grafts are used to replace, bypass or provide a new lining or arterial wall for occluded, damaged, dilated or severely diseased arteries. CardioTech developed a vascular access graft trade named VascuLink Vascular Access Graft and was developing a peripheral graft trade named MyoLink Peripheral Graft. CardioTech sold the VascuLink and MyoLink products to Nervation Ltdpurchased in connection with the dispositionFirst Closing resulted in Reddington owning 422,725 shares of CardioTech's UK subsidiary, CardioTech International, Ltd ("CTL") in November 2000. CardioTech is currently developing a layered micro porous coronary artery bypass graft trade named CardioPass, which utilizes similar material usedour common stock. As set forth in the grafts produced by CTL.

        CDT isSPA, Reddington then purchased from us on March 15, 2022, an original equipment manufacturer; supplieradditional 4,691,750 shares of specialized disposable medical devices to medical device companies from concept to finished packaged, sterile product; and uses its experience in the design, development, prototyping and manufacturing to provide turnkey contract services. Some devices designed, developed and manufactured for customers by CDT include sensing, balloon, and drug delivery catheters; disposable endoscopes; and in-vitro diagnostic and surgical disposables. We acquired CDT in May, 2001.

        Additionally, through its Biomaterials division, CardioTech develops, manufactures and markets polyurethane-based biomaterials for use in both acute and chronically implanted devices such as stents, artificial hearts, and vascular ports. These premium biomaterials are sold under the trade names: ChronoFlex, ChronoThane, HydroThane, ChronoFilm, HydroMed and Hydroslip.

        CardioTech owns a number of patents relating to its vascular graft manufacturing technology. In addition, PMI has granted to CardioTech an exclusive, perpetual, worldwide, royalty-free license for the use of one polyurethane patent and related technology in the field consisting of the development, manufacture and sale of implantable medical devices and biodurable polymer material to third parties for the use in medical applications (the "Implantable Device and Materials Field"). PMI also owns, jointly with Thermedics, Inc., an unrelated company that manufactures medical grade polyurethane, the ChronoFlex polyurethane patents relating to the ChronoFlex technology ("Joint Technology"). PMI has granted to CardioTech a non-exclusive, perpetual, worldwide, royalty-free sublicense of these patents for use in the Implantable Devices and Materials Field.

        ChronoFilm is a registered trademark of PMI. ChronoFlex is a registered trademark of CardioTech. ChronoThane, ChronoPrene, HydroThane, PolyBlend and PolyWeld are trade names of CardioTech. DuraGraft and CardioPass are trademarks of CardioTech.

        On April 7, 2003, CardioTech merged with Gish Biomedical, Inc., a California corporation ("Gish"), with its corporate headquarters in Rancho Santa Margarita, California. Each outstanding share of Gishour common stock, was converted into 1.3422on a post-split basis (the “Second Closing”). After the issuance thereof Reddington owned 5,114,475 shares of CardioTechour common stock. CardioTech issued 4,901,817 shares to holdersstock, or approximately 90% of Gish stock, which equaled approximately 35% of the



our total shares outstanding. Our Gish division specializes in the manufacture and sale of products used in open-heart surgery, vascular access and orthopedic surgery. Gish is registered as a medical device manufacturer with the FDA, the European Union and state agencies, such as the California Department of Health Services.

        In July 1999, Dermaphylyx International, Inc. ("Dermaphylyx"), was formed by certain affiliates of CardioTech to develop advanced wound healing products. Dermaphylyx was merged into CardioTech effective March 12, 2004 and is now a wholly owned subsidiary of CardioTech. Due to CardioTech's controlling financial interest, Dermaphylyx has been consolidated in the financial statements of CardioTech as of December 31, 2003. Upon the merger, the then current stockholders of Dermaphylyx received 3,827 shares of common stock of CardioTech valued at the net book value of Dermaphylyx International, Inc. as of December 31, 2003, which was approximately $21,000.outstanding.

        In October 2001, Dermaphylyx developed an advanced water absorbent wound and burn dressing trade named HydroMed, a name meaning "breathable artificial skin." The wound dressing received FDA clearance for marketing on May 31, 2002 as a Class I Exempt device.

        In the fourth quarter of fiscal 2004, Dermaphylyx started marketing its wound dressing products and currently has two moist wound dressings available for sale, AlgiMed and HydroMed and Blist-Rx, a blister prevention dressing. AlgiMed wound dressings are designed for exudation and bleeding wounds and HydroMed is an absorbent dressing designed for low exudation wounds. Both dressings have been granted Medicare billing codes. Blist-Rx is a breathable polyurethane foam dressing intended to be used by sports enthusiasts to prevent blisters. In October 2004, Deramphylyx introduced a hydrating mask, trade named AloeGlow, which will be sold directly to beauty salons, professional outlets and regional distributors.

        In March 2004, CardioTech joined with Implant Sciences, Inc. (IMX on American Stock Exchange) to participate in the funding of CorNova, Inc. CorNova, Inc. was formed to develop a novel coronary drug eluting stent using the combined capabilities and technology of CorNova, Implant Sciences and CardioTech. CardioTech currently has a thirty percent equity interest in CorNova. CorNova completed its initial funding onOn February 5, 2005 by obtaining private investments totaling approximately $3,000,000, at which time CardioTech became obligated to contribute 308,642 shares of its common stock with a market value at the time of contribution of twenty-five per cent of the amount raised ($750,000). The stent will utilize a design similar to the CardioPass and the Chronoflex material. CorNova is in its initial stage of product development. CardioTech accounts for its investment in CorNova using the equity method of accounting.

        On November 19, 2004, CardioTech23, 2023, we entered into a definitive agreementContribution Agreement with Nordicus Partners A/S, a Danish stock corporation, GK Partners ApS (“GK Partners”), Henrik Rouf and Life Science Power House ApS (collectively, the “Sellers”). Pursuant to acquire substantiallythe Contribution Agreement, the Sellers contributed, transferred, assigned and conveyed to us all right, title and interest in and to one hundred percent (100%) of the assetsissued and assume certain liabilitiesoutstanding capital stock of CarTika Medical, Inc., a privately owned medical device contract manufacturer headquartered in Plymouth, Minnesota. To effect the transaction, the Company will organize a wholly-owned subsidiary corporation under the lawsNordicus Partners A/S for an aggregate of the State of Minnesota under the name of "CarTika Acquisition Inc.". As part of the transaction, we will issue to the stockholders of CarTika consideration, consisting of2,500,000 shares of the Company'sour common stock registered under this registration statement, equal in value to $1,662,000, with the number of shares based upon the fair market value of the common stock at the date of close and $4,985,000 in cash. The purchase price we will pay for CarTika Medical was determined based on CarTika's performance for the twelve months ended July 31, 2004. For the twelve months ended July 31, 2004, CarTika recorded revenues of $5,505,000, net income before income taxes of $1,299,000 and cash flow from operating activities of $1,154,000

        CarTika, an original equipment manufacturer,operates from a FDA-Registered state of the art 17,000 square feet facility in Plymouth, Minnesota, has about 50 employees, two Certified Class 10,000 clean rooms, and specializes in complete catheter assemblies, injection molding, pad printing and thermoformed polymer products.



Medical Background

        Blood is pumped from the heart throughout the body via arteries. Blood is returned to the heart at relatively low pressure via veins, which have thinner walls than arteries and have check valves, which force blood to move in one direction. Because a specific area of the body is often supplied by a single main artery, rupture, severe narrowing or occlusion of the artery supplying blood to that area is likely to cause an undesirable or catastrophic medical outcome.

        Vascular grafts are used to replace or bypass occluded, damaged, dilated or severely diseased arteries and are sometimes used to provide access to the bloodstream for patients undergoing hemodialysis treatments. Existing small bore graft technologies suffer from a variety of disadvantages in the treatment of certain medical conditions, depending upon the need for biodurability, compliance (elasticity) and other characteristics necessary for long-term interface with the human body.

Product in Pre-clinical Development

CardioPass Coronary Artery Bypass Graft

        Coronary artery bypass graft ("CABG") surgery is performed to treat the impairment of blood flow to portions of the heart. CABG surgery involves the addition of one or more new vessels to the heart to re-route blood around blocked coronary arteries.

        Autogenous grafts (using the patient's own saphenous vein or mammary artery) have been successfully used in CABG procedures for a number of years and have shown a relatively high patency rate (80% to 90% for saphenous veins and over 90% for mammary arteries one year after surgery) with no risk of tissue rejection. However, the surgical harvesting of vessels for autogenous grafts involves significant trauma and expense. In addition, not all patients requiring CABG surgery have sufficient native vessels asstock. As a result of previous bypass surgeries, or their vessels may bethe business combination, Nordicus Partners A/S became our wholly owned subsidiary.

On May 17, 2023, we changed our name to Nordicus Partners Corporation and our ticker symbol to NORD.

We are now a financial consulting company, specializing in providing Nordic and other international companies with the best possible conditions to establish themselves on the U.S. market, taking advantage of inferior quality due to trauma or disease. Cryo-preserved saphenous veins are available, but these veins often deteriorate due to attack by the body's immune system.

        CardioTech is developing its grafts using specialized ChronoFlex polyurethane materials that it believes will provide significantly improved performancemanagement’s combined +90 years of experience in the treatment of arterial disorders. The grafts have three layers, similar to natural arteries and are designed to replicate the physical characteristics of human blood vessels.

        CardioTech is developing the CardioPass Coronary Artery Bypass Graft to be a synthetic graft of 4mm and 5mmcorporate sector, serving in diameter specifically designed for use in CABG surgery. If successfully developed, CardioTech believes that the CardioPass Graft may be used initially to provide an alternative to patients with insufficient or inadequate native vessels for use in bypass surgery as a result of repeat procedures, trauma, disease or other factors. CardioTech believes further that the CardioPass Graft may ultimately be used as a substitute for native saphenous veins, thus avoiding the trauma and expense associated with the surgical harvesting of the vein.

        CardioTech believes that approximately 650,000 CABG procedures were performed worldwide during fiscal 2004, of which nearly 300,000 were performed in the United States. CardioTech believes that approximately 20% of these CABG procedures were performed on patients who had previously undergone bypass surgery, and that the number of repeat procedures will continue to increase as a percentage of procedures performed. Currently, approximately 70% of CABG procedures are performed utilizing the saphenous vein.

        The CardioPass Coronary Artery Bypass Graft is in limited clinical trials, which are currently being conducted in Brazil. CardioTech announced that three adult human implants have occurred and, as of March 31, 2005, all three patients and grafts are performing as expected.



        CardioTech estimates that approximately 100,000 patients in the United States, and an additional 100,000 patients in the rest of the world ("no option patients") are diagnosed by their physicians as having native vessels that are inadequate for use in bypass surgery. If the CardioPass Graft is successfully developed, CardioTech believes that the graft may initially be used for these patients. CardioTech also believes that if long-term clinical results are acceptable to clinicians (generally, greater than 50% patency five years after implant), the graft may ultimately be used as a direct substitute for autogenous saphenous veins.

Gish Biomedical Products

Custom Cardiovascular Tubing Systems

        During open-heart surgery, the patient's blood is diverted from the heart through sterile plastic tubing and various other devices to an oxygenator device, which oxygenates the blood before it is returned to the patient. Each hospital performing open-heart surgery specifies the components to be included in its custom tubing sets, based on the particular needs of its surgical team. The complexity of the sets varies from simple tubing systems to all-inclusive operating packs. The packs usually include blood filters, gas filters, reservoirs used to collect blood lost during surgery and other components. Gish produces custom tubing sets using clear Mediflex™ tubing. Such components are assembled in the Gish clean room, sterilized and then shipped either to the hospital or to one of Gish's specialty distributors, which service such hospitals.

        Custom tubing systems are sold separately and combined with an oxygenator. Revenue from sales of custom tubing systems sold separately equaled 13% of total CardioTech revenue for fiscal 2004.

Arterial Filters

        The arterial filter is the last device the blood passes through in the cardiovascular bypass circuit as it is being returned to the patient. The purpose of the filter is to remove gaseous micro emboli and debris, which are generated by the oxygenation system, from the patient's blood.

        Gish introduced its first arterial filters in 1985. Gish's first design contained a safety bypass loop incorporated into the filter housing. Gish received FDA approval to market an improved design, which became available for sale during the second quarter of fiscal 1994.

Cardiotomy Reservoirs

        Cardiac suction is a technique employed in open-heart surgery to recover shed blood in the chest cavity and return it to the patient. The use of this technique reduces the requirements for whole blood replacement from donor sources, thereby reducing the risk of blood compatibility problems and blood-borne viral diseases such as AIDS and hepatitis.

        Gish's cardiotomy reservoir systems consist of a polycarbonate reservoir, defoaming and filtration cartridge, and mounting bracket. This enables the perfusion team to recover high volumes of shed blood, then defoam and filter it prior to returning it to the patient's circulatory system.

        In addition to the cardiotomy reservoirs' use in the operating room, Gish has developed several systems that allow the cardiotomy reservoir to be used as a pleural drainage or autotransfusion system during recovery.

Vision™ Oxygenator

        An oxygenator enables gas exchange of oxygen and carbon dioxide and also regulates the temperature of the patient's blood.



        As a life sustaining device used during open-heart surgery, the oxygenator is a key component of the bypass circuit. Vision is assembled in Gish's clean room using state of the art equipment and biocompatible materials, and then each unit is leak tested before shipment.

        Vision's gas transfer performance is excellent, dependable and capable of maintaining the oxygen demands of patients of all sizes for periods of up to six hours.

        Vision's unique air separation channel utilizes an arterial outlet pressure gradient and the natural buoyancy of air to minimize the passage of gaseous emboli towards the patient. Unwanted emboli are safely purged for safe venting back to the reservoir. Through studies at an independent testing facility, Vision's air handling abilities were proven superior to competitive devices.

        Vision also eliminates common difficulties associated with other oxygenators. The blood ports are oriented on one side, gas and water on the other to reduce contamination. Different sized gas inlet and outlet ports resolve any gas line confusion. Angled water ports allow Vision's heat exchanger to drain, minimizing the creation of water puddles on the floor. During long pump runs, a fluid dam and evacuation port divert condensation away from the gas scavenge port. Finally, a protective rib below the blood inlet port prevents any contact between the port and the floor.

        Gish's Vision oxygenator is sold separately, or with a reservoir, and also with a reservoir and custom tubing system. Gish's Vision oxygenator was sold in selected accountsdifferent capacities both domestically and internationally for the first half of fiscal 1998. Gish made its full market release of this product for saleglobally.

Our core competencies lie in January 1998. Gish believes that the Vision oxygenator's superior air handling capabilities provides Gish with a competitive advantage in the oxygenator market place. Revenue generated from sales that included an oxygenator equaled 31% of total CardioTech revenue for fiscal 2004.

Venous Reservoirs

        A venous reservoir is a device used to pool, filter and defoam blood prior to its introduction to the oxygenator. Gish offers a variety of venous reservoirs, including some which incorporate the capacity for autologous transfusion post surgically. Gish also has several products that incorporate the functions of cardiotomy, venous reservoir, post surgical blood collection and blood reinfusion devices. This functional bundling is usually cost effective for the hospital.

CAPVRF44

        Gish's CAPVRF44 hardshell venous reservoir combines a 360(0) rotational, top-entry1/2" inlet for unrestricted venous drainage and a high performance cardiotomy compartment with six sucker inlet ports to handle all of the blood coming from the surgical field. Gish has incorporated the advantages of the depth filter in its cardiotomies into the CAPVRF44 for reduced hold-up volumes, making more blood available to the patient. With an operating capacity of 4400 ml, the CAPVRF44 also has the capacity to handle high blood volume procedures such as valve replacements and second surgeries.

        The CAPVRF44 is a perioperative device, capable of operating in both the Operating Room and Recovery Room. Following surgery, through a simple conversion process, the CAPVRF44 collects blood shed from the chest cavity and removes unwanted debris before the filtered blood is reinfused back into the patient. Blood recovery and autotransfusion through the CAPVRF44's closed system limits hospital staff exposure to potential blood infections. Recovered blood may be reinfused continuously, intermittently, or not at all, in support of all patients' religious beliefs, including Jehovah's Witnesses. The CAPVRF44's dual role means fewer homologous blood products are needed, further reducing surgical costs and improving patient safety.



Cardioplegia Delivery Systems

        Cardioplegia encompasses several techniques employed in open-heart surgery to preserve, protect and manage the heart tissue. The technique typically involves the use of a chilled solution that is infused into the heart through the coronary arteries to cool the heart and reduce heart activity and metabolism. However, there are many different techniques utilized, depending on the physician and patient needs. The use of these techniques significantly reduces damage to heart tissue during surgery, enhances restoration of heart function and helps return the patient to a normal heartbeat when the surgical procedure is complete.

        Gish has developed a complete line of cardioplegia delivery systems, including a new cardioplegia device. On April 10, 2002, the FDA granted Gish clearance to sell the device in the United States of America. Additionally, the new cardioplegia device is CE marked, allowing sale in Europe. Multiple systems are required for this technique due to varying physician preferences. Gish's original offerings for this procedure were a series of reservoirs with a recirculation valve (CPS) and a series of cooling coils (CCS series). Gish has since developed a line of cardioplegia systems and heat exchangers designed to utilize a blood and potassium mixture and allow the surgeon to quickly change the temperature delivered to the patient.

Oxygen Saturation Monitor

        In February 1992, Gish introduced a digital blood saturation monitor for open-heart surgery, the StatSat™. The StatSat is an electronic device that measures the oxygen content of the patient's blood during surgery. These readings are taken continuously and the StatSat™ plots the course of the blood oxygen saturation during the surgery. Although the StatSat is reusable, it uses a disposable sensor for each surgery.

Critical Care Central Venous Access Catheters and Ports

        Gish's Hemed™ central venous access catheter systems have applications in hyper-alimentation, chemotherapy, and long-term vascular access. These long-term indwelling catheters are surgically implanted to provide direct access to the central venous system for high protein intravenous solutions needed by patients having nonfunctional digestive systems and for rapid dilution and dispersion of highly concentrated drug administration in chemotherapy for cancer.

        The product line includes sterile single, dual and triple lumen catheters and accessories sold in kits. The triple lumen catheter, which permits three substances to be administered through the same catheter, was introduced during fiscal 1997. In 1993, Gish introduced an enhancement to its Hemed catheter line, the CathCap™. The CathCap reduces the risk of infection at the injection site by continually bathing the injection cap in an antimicrobial solution between injections.

        Gish has enhanced the Hemed line with the VasPort® Implantable Ports and the VasTack® Needle Support System. The VasPort consists of a silicone catheter with an implantable injection port, allowing vascular access through small needle sticks with the skin acting as a natural barrier to infection. This access method eliminates the need for a cumbersome external catheter. Gish introduced a detachable port/catheter system in fiscal 1994. Gish also introduced a dual VasPort in July 1996 to meet the needs of patients requiring multiple infusions. The VasTack consists of a specially designed needle and positioning system for use with the VasPort. The needle extends the life of the implanted injection port and the positioning system gives the nursing staff a sure, safe method for accessing the VasPort.

        The Hemed, VasPort and VasTack are alternative vascular access products used for extended long-term infusion management and are designed to complement the Hemed catheter lines. The VasPort is a device implanted entirely under the skin and consists of a small reservoir with a diaphragm



and catheter. The VasPort is accessed by the VasTack, a small patented non-coring needle system, which penetrates the skin and the diaphragm of the VasPort reservoir. Drugs are readily infused through the VasTack, into the reservoir and then into the catheter. When the infusion is complete the VasTack is removed and the skin acts as a natural barrier against infection. Single and double reservoir VasPorts are available.

Orthofuser

        The patented Orthofuser™ is designed for post-operative use in orthopedic surgeries such as hip and knee replacements and provides for the safe recovery and transfusion of the patient's own blood. This product is well suited for orthopedic procedures, as it is portable and incorporates its own internal vacuum source. Salvaging and reusing as little as 500 cc's of blood post surgically may be enough to avoid the use of donor blood in these types of surgeries.

FDA Clearance for Heparin Coated Products

        In Fiscal 2004, Gish received FDA clearance for its heparin coating to be used in conjunction with Gish's line of heart-lung bypass products. The GBS™ (Gish Biocompatible Surfaces) Coating is a heparin based, covalently bound biocompatible coating that will be used to cover the surfaces of Gish disposable products. Heparin coatings are known to inhibit blood coagulation, decrease the risk of Systemic Inflammatory Response Syndrome, reduce complement activation and platelet adhesion, reduce blood loss and hemolysis, provide stable antithrombotic activity and reduce thrombus formation,assisting Danish, as well as decrease leucocyte (white blood cells) activation.other Nordic and international companies, with advice regarding various areas of corporate finance activities.

Biomaterials

        CardioTech also develops, manufactures and sells a rangeResults of polymer-based materials customized for use in the manufacture of certain medical devices to other medical device manufacturers. CardioTech sells these custom polymers under the trade names ChronoFilm, ChronoFlex, ChronoThane, ChronoPrene, HydroThane, PolyBlend and PolyWeld. CardioTech also provides development services relating to biomaterials to medical device customers.Operations

        CardioTech also manufactures and sells its proprietary HydroThane biomaterials to medical device manufacturers that are evaluating HydroThane for use in their products. HydroThane is a thermoplastic, water-absorbing, polyurethane elastomer, that possesses properties that CardioTech believes make it well suited for the complex requirements of a variety of catheters. In addition to its physical properties, CardioTech believes HydroThane exhibits an inherent degree of bacterial resistance, clot resistance and biocompatibility. When hydrated, HydroThane has elastic properties similar to living tissue.

        In July 1999, CardioTech acquired the assets of Tyndale-Plains Hunter, Ltd. (TPH), a manufacturer of specialty hydrophilic polyurethanes. These hydrophilic polyurethanes are primarily sold to customers as part of an exclusive arrangement. Certain customers are supplied tailored, patented hydrophilic polyurethanes in exchange for multi-year, royalty-bearing exclusive supply contracts. CardioTech owns 29 patents in the field of hydrophilic polyurethanes.

Dermaphylyx

        In the fourth quarter of fiscal 2004, Dermaphylyx started marketing its wound dressing products and currently has two moist wound dressings available for sale, AlgiMed and HydroMed and Blist-Rx, a blister prevention dressing. AlgiMed wound dressings are designed for exudation and bleeding wounds and HydroMed is an absorbent dressing designed for low exudation wounds. Both dressings have been granted Medicare billing codes. Blist-Rx is a breathable polyurethane foam dressing intended to be used by sports enthusiasts to prevent blisters. In October 2004, Deramphylyx introduced a hydrating



mask, trade named AloeGlow, which will be sold directly to beauty salons, professional outlets and regional distributors.

        CardioTech's revenues were $16,083,000 for the nine months ended December 31, 2004. We incurred a loss of $968,000 during such period. For the nine month ended December 31, 2004, 82% of revenues were generated from Gish, 6% of revenues were generated from the Biomaterials division, and 12% of revenues were generated from CDT. For the nine months ended December 31, 2003, 80% of revenues were generated from Gish, 5% of revenues were generated from the Biomaterials division and 15% of revenues were generated at CDT.

Manufacturing

        CardioTech currently manufactures limited quantities of ChronoFlex and HydroThane for sale to medical device manufacturers. To date, CardioTech's manufacturing activities with respect to the specialized ChronoFlex materials used in vascular grafts have consisted primarily of manufacturing small quantities of such products for use in clinical trials. CardioTech has an agreement with CTL, a subsidiary of Nervation Ltd., pursuant to which CardioTech is required to purchase from and CTL has agreed to sell to CardioTech the vascular grafts it needs, subject to CardioTech's ability to obtain another supplier or to obtain "technology transfer." In May 2003, all of the assets CTL were sold to LeMaitre Vascular Inc. By requesting "technology transfer," CardioTech retained the right to undertake, through its subsidiary, Catheter and Disposables Technology, Inc. ("CDT"), large scale commercial production of vascular grafts, when, and if it elects to do so. This would entail, among other things, the purchase of specialized extrusion equipment capable of producing the grafts. To achieve profitability, vascular graft products must be manufactured in larger commercial quantities in compliance with regulatory requirements and at acceptable costs. Production in larger commercial quantities will require CardioTech to expand its manufacturing capabilities significantly and to hire and train additional personnel.

        The development and manufacture of CardioTech's products are subject to good laboratory practice ("GLP") and good manufacturing practice ("GMP") requirements prescribed by the Food and Drug Administration ("FDA") and other standards prescribed by the appropriate regulatory agency in the country of use. There can be no assurance that CardioTech will be able to obtain or manufacture products in a timely fashion at acceptable quality and prices, that it or any suppliers can comply with GLP or GMP, as applicable, or that it or such suppliers will be able to manufacture an adequate supply of products. Both Gish's and CDT's facilities are EN ISO 13485 certified and include a "Class 10,000" clean room.

Competition

        Competition in the medical device industry in general is intense and based primarily on scientific and technological factors, the availability of patent and other protection for technology and products, the ability to commercialize technological developments and the ability to obtain governmental approval for testing, manufacturing and marketing products.

        Competition among products is based, among other things, on product efficacy, safety, reliability, availability, price and patent position. An important factor is the timing of the market introduction of CardioTech's or competitors' products. Accordingly, the relative speed with which CardioTech can develop products, complete the clinical trials and approval processes and supply commercial quantities



of the products to the market is expected to be an important competitive factor. CardioTech's competitive position depends upon its ability to attract and retain qualified personnel, to obtain patent protection or otherwise develop proprietary products or processes, and to secure sufficient capital resources for the often substantial period between technological conception and commercial sales.

        The market for medical devices of the type sold by CardioTech is extremely competitive. CardioTech believes that product differentiation and performance, client service, reliability, cost and ease of use are important competitive considerations in the markets in which it competes. Most of CardioTech's competitors are larger and possess greater financial and other resources than CardioTech. CardioTech has approximately five competitors within each of the hospital markets in which it competes. No one competitor is a dominant force in this market. CardioTech believes it has achieved its position in the marketplace for its present principal products by means of superior design, quality, and service, and CardioTech intends to continue to utilize these means of competing.

Research and Development

        CardioTech's research and development efforts are primarily focused on developing its synthetic vascular graft technologies. CardioTech's development decisions are based on (1) development costs, (2) product need, (3) third-party interest and funding availability, and (4) regulatory considerations. Research and development expenditures, including costs of research grants, for the nine months ended December 31, 2004 and December 31, 2003 were $976,000 and $765,000, respectively, and for the years ended March 31, 2004 and 2003 were $1,065,000 and $374,000, respectively, consisting primarily of salaries and related costs. Research and development costs will increase significantly should CardioTech enter into the European Union or United States of America clinical trials with its CardioPass graft, or other products.

        In April 2002, CardioTech concluded a technology transfer and license agreement with Credent Vascular Technologies, Ltd., of Wrexham, U.K. Total consideration paid by Credent to CardioTech for the purchase of the transferred rights to ChronoFlex RC was $500,000.

Incompany. Hence, potentially creating an added revenue stream – alongside the United States,fees from our corporate finance services – if the development, manufacturing and marketing of synthetic vascular grafts are subject to regulation for safety and efficacy bycompany’s value increases over time.

Besides the FDA in accordancevalue we provide through our direct involvement with the Food, Drugcompanies, we have a comprehensive network of business partners and Cosmetic Act. Synthetic vascular grafts are subjectassociates, which spans across Europe and the U.S.

We also operate as a business incubator, in which we can provide added value by accelerating and smoothing companies’ transition to rigorous FDA regulation, including pre-clinical and clinical testing. The process of completing clinical trials and obtaining FDA approvals for a medical device is likely to takethe U.S. through a number of years, requires the expenditure of substantialsupport resources and services such as office space, lawyers, bookkeepers, marketing specialists, etc. with years of experience navigating through the U.S. marketplace. Hence, providing companies with the optimal conditions needed for their international expansion.

Facilities

Our headquarters are located in Las Vegas, Nevada, where we currently utilize shared office and shop space with a monthly lease term. We believe this space is often subjectsufficient to unanticipated delays. There can be no assurancemeet our needs for the foreseeable future and that any product will receive such approval on a timely basis, if at all.

        There can be no assurance that the FDA will approve any of CardioTech's products currently under research, or if they are approved, that theyadditional space we may require in Las Vegas will be approvedavailable on a timely basis. Furthermore, CardioTech or the FDA may suspend clinical trials at any time upon a determination that the subjects or patients are being exposedcommercially reasonable terms.

Employees

We currently have only one full-time employee, Henrik Rouf, and currently use consultants to an unacceptable adverse health risk ascribable to CardioTech's


products. If clinical studies are suspended, CardioTech may be unable to continue the development of the investigational products affected. CardioTech's Gish subsidiary operates a quality system certified to EN ISO 13485, a standard for quality recognized worldwide. In addition, Gish has been found in compliance with the European Economic Community ("EEC") Medical Device Directive, which equivocates to portions of the United States FDA Current Good Manufacturing Practices ("CGMP") Quality System Regulations. This allows Gish to exportperform, bookkeeping, accounting, engineering and distribute its products with free movement within the European Community.

        CardioTech is inspected periodically by both the FDA and the CDHS for compliance with the FDA's GMP and other requirements including the medical device reporting regulation and various requirements for labeling and promotion.installation services. The FDA Quality System Regulations ("QSR"), which became effective June 1, 1997, no longer limit control to manufacturing and post market controls, but specify requirements during design (Design Control), manufacturing, and servicing as well. Much of the new QSR is based on the ISO9001 Quality Standard, and is, as such in harmony with the thrust towards world harmonization of medical device requirements. The FDA's GMP regulation requires, among other things, that (i) the manufacturing process be regulated and controlled by the use of written procedures,consultants and (ii) the abilitycontractors has enabled us to produce devices that meet the manufacturer's specifications be validatedkeep overhead costs low by extensiveutilizing resources as needed. However, we expect to employ additional personnel following receipt of sufficient funding to do so as discussed above. We will strive to offer competitive employee compensation and detailed testing of every aspect of the process. The medical device reporting regulation requires that the device manufacturer provide information to the FDA on deaths or serious injuries alleged to have been associated with the use of its marketed devices, as well as product malfunctions that would likely cause or contribute to a death or serious injury if the malfunction were to recur. Changes in existing requirements or interpretations (on which regulations heavily depend) or adoption of new requirements or policies could adversely affect the ability of CardioTech to comply with regulatory requirements. Failure to comply with regulatory requirements could have a material adverse effect on CardioTech's business.

        CardioTech believes all of its present products are in compliance in all material respects with all applicable performance standards as well as good manufacturing practices, record keeping and reporting requirements in the production and distribution of such products. Most of CardioTech's products have been determined by the FDA to be devices substantially similar to devices marketed by others prior to May 28, 1976, the effective date of the Amendments, and marketing of them has been authorized pending the classification by the FDA of such products. CardioTech does not anticipate any significant difficulty or material cost increases in complying with applicable performance standards if any such products were to be classified in Class II by the FDA. If the FDA were to classify use of CardioTech's cardiovascular or catheter products as Class III products, pre-marketing clinical testing and evaluation would be requiredbenefits in order to obtain FDA approval for the sale of such products.attract and retain a skilled and diverse work force.

        Regulations under the Act permit export of products which comply with the laws of the country to which they are exported. CardioTech relies upon its foreign distributors for the necessary certifications and compliances in their countries, except in the EEC where the Medical Device Directive prescriptively defines requirements.

Marketing and DistributionLegal Proceedings

        Internationally, CardioTech is represented by specialty medical distributors in over fifty countries around the world. CardioTech's international sales represented approximately 15% of total CardioTech sales in fiscal 2004. CardioTech's sales to foreign customers are primarily in Europe and Asia. All international transactions are conducted in U.S. dollars, thus reducing the risk from currency fluctuations. CardioTech does not have any facilities, property or other assets, except sales representative supplies, located in any geographic area other than the United States of America.

        Sales of CardioTech's products have historically not been subject to seasonality in any material respect.



Components and Parts

        CardioTech purchases components for its various products from vendors who sell such components generally to the medical device industry. Most components for CardioTech's proprietary products are manufactured from tooling owned by CardioTech. Other components are manufactured by outside suppliers in accordance with CardioTech's specifications.

        Certain components of CardioTech's custom tubing sets are purchased from competitors. CardioTech has not experienced difficulty in obtaining such components in the past and believes adequate sources of supply for such items are available on reasonable terms.

        Membrana GmbH is a CardioTech supplier and provides a polyester wrap thread for use in the Vision™ Oxygenator.

Patents and License Agreements

        CardioTech has been issued or has patents pending on several of its products. There can be no assurance that any patents issued would afford CardioTech adequate protection against competitors which sell similar inventions or devices. There can also be no assurance that CardioTech's patents will not be infringed upon or designed around by others. However, CardioTech intends to vigorously enforce all patents it has been issued.

Customer Information

        CardioTech performs ongoing credit evaluations and maintains allowances for potential credit losses. As of December 31, 2004, CardioTech believes that it has no significant concentrations of credit risk.

        One sales representative organization comprised 10% of the Gish division's net sales in fiscal 2004. CardioTech believes that the loss of this sales representative organization would not have a material effect on its business.

Backlog

        Almost all of the Gish division products are repetitive purchase, single use, disposable products, which are shipped shortly after receipt of a customer's purchase order. Therefore, CardioTech believes that CardioTech and its distributors generally maintain an adequate finished goods inventory to fulfill the customer's needs on demand. Accordingly, CardioTech believes that the backlog of orders at any given point in time in the Gish division is not indicative of the Gish division's future level of sales.

        CDT had a backlog of $1,849,000 at December 31, 2004.

Contracts

        CardioTech has no contracts with customers where cancellation or renegotiation would have a material impact on CardioTech's sales or profit margins.

Environmental Compliance

        CardioTech's direct expenditures for environmental compliance were not material in the two most recent fiscal years. However, certain costs of manufacturing have increased due to environmental regulations placed upon suppliers of components and services.



Employees

        As of December 31, 2004, CardioTech had 47 full-time employees at its headquarters in Massachusetts and in its Minnesota location. Of these full-time employees, 12 are in contract research and development, 26 are in manufacturing and production, and 9 are in management, administrative, and marketing positions. None of these employees are covered by a collective bargaining agreement, and management considers its relations with its employees to be good.

Of these full-time employees, 9 were engaged in sales and sales management, 89 were engaged in manufacturing and the remainder in marketing, research and development, administrative and executive positions. None of these employees are covered by a collective bargaining agreement, and management considers its relations with its employees to be good.

Committees of the Board of Directors

We currently have no separate audit, compensation, or nominating committees. The entire Board oversees our (i) audits and auditing procedures; (ii) compensation philosophies and objectives, establishment of remuneration levels for our executive officer, and implementation of our incentive programs; and (iii) identification of individuals qualified to become Board members and recommendation to our shareholders of persons to be nominated for election as directors.

Director Independence

We are not currently subject to listing requirements of any national securities exchange or inter-dealer quotation system which has requirements that a majority of the Board be “independent” and, as a result, we are not at this time required to have our Board comprised of a majority of “Independent Directors.” As of the date of this prospectus none of our directors are considered to be independent.

Role of the Board in Risk Oversight/Risk Committee

One of the key functions of the Board will be informed oversight of the Company’s risk management process. The Board does not currently anticipate having a standing risk management committee and administers this oversight function directly. In particular, the Board is responsible for monitoring and assessing strategic risk exposure and the Company’s major financial risk exposures and the steps its management will take to monitor and control such exposures, including guidelines and policies to govern the process by which risk assessment and management is undertaken. The Board will also receive $1,500monitor compliance with legal and regulatory requirements.

Limitation on Liability and Indemnification of Directors and Officers

The Company’s Certificate of Incorporation limits directors’ liability to the fullest extent permitted under the DGCL. The DGCL provides that directors of a corporation will not be personally liable for each special meeting with CardioTech's Principal Accountants. All non-employeemonetary damages for breach of their fiduciary duties as directors, are reimbursedexcept for travelliability:

● for any transaction from which the director derives an improper personal benefit;

● for any act or omission not in good faith or that involves intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of law;

● for any unlawful payment of dividends or redemption of shares; or

● for any breach of a director’s duty of loyalty to the corporation or its stockholders.

If the DGCL is amended to authorize corporate action further eliminating or limiting the personal liability of directors, then the liability of directors will be eliminated or limited to the fullest extent permitted by the DGCL, as so amended.

Delaware law and the Company’s bylaws provide that the Company will, in certain situations, indemnify the Company’s directors and officers and may indemnify other employees and other relatedagents, to the fullest extent permitted by law. Any indemnified person is also entitled, subject to certain limitations, to advancement, direct payment, or reimbursement of reasonable expenses incurred(including attorneys’ fees and disbursements) in attending meetingsadvance of the Board.final disposition of the proceeding.



        Directors

We intend to maintain a directors’ and officers’ insurance policy pursuant to which our directors and officers are eligibleinsured against liability for actions taken in their capacities as directors and officers. We believe this will be necessary to participateattract and retain qualified persons as directors and officers.

Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be permitted to directors, officers, or control persons, in the 1996opinion of the SEC, such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and 2003 Plans. is therefore unenforceable.

None.

Directors’ Compensation

We did not provide any Board compensation during the fiscal 2004, CardioTechyears ended March 31, 2023 and 2022.

Equity Compensation Plan Information

On August 16, 2023, our Board of Directors and stockholders adopted our 2017 Non-Qualified Equity Incentive Plan (the “2017 Plan”). The purpose of the Plan is to provide an incentive to attract and retain directors, officers, consultants, advisors and employees whose services are considered valuable, to encourage a sense of proprietorship, and to stimulate an active interest of these persons in our development and financial success. Under the Plan, we are authorized to issue up to 7,000,000 shares of common stock, non-qualified stock options, performance shares, restricted stock and long-term incentive awards.

Administration. The 2017 Plan is administered by the Board of Directors or the committee or committees as may be appointed by the Board of Directors from time to time (the “Administrator”). The Administrator determines the persons who are to receive awards, the types of awards to be granted, the number of shares subject to each Directorsuch award and the terms and conditions of such awards. The Administrator also has the authority to interpret the provisions of the 2017 Plan and of any awards granted there under and to modify awards granted under the 2017 Plan. The Administrator may not, however, reduce the price of options or stock appreciation rights issued under the 2017 Plan without prior approval of the Company’s shareholders.

Eligibility. The 2017 Plan provides that awards may be granted to employees, officers, directors and consultants of the Company or of any parent, subsidiary or other affiliate of the Company as the Administrator may determine. A person may be granted more than one award under the 2017 Plan.

Shares that are subject to issuance upon exercise of an option under the 2017 Plan but cease to purchase 10,000be subject to such option for any reason (other than exercise of such option), and shares that are subject to an award granted under the 2017 Plan but are forfeited or repurchased by the Company at the original issue price, or that are subject to an award that terminates without shares being issued, will again be available for grant and issuance under the 2017 Plan.

Terms of Options and Stock Appreciation Rights. The Administrator determines many of the terms and conditions of each option and SAR granted under the 2017 Plan, including whether the option is to be an incentive stock option or a non-qualified stock option, whether the SAR is a related SAR or a freestanding SAR, the number of shares subject to each option or SAR, and the exercise price of the option and the periods during which the option or SAR may be exercised. Each option and SAR is evidenced by a grant agreement in such form as the Administrator approves and is subject to the following conditions (as described in further detail in the 2017 Plan):

(a) Vesting and Exercisability: Options, restricted shares and SARs become vested and exercisable, as applicable, within such periods, or upon such events, as determined by the Administrator in its discretion and as set forth in the related grant agreement. The term of each option is also set by the Administrator. However, a related SAR will be exercisable at the time or times, and only to the extent, that the option is exercisable and will not be transferable except to the extent that the option is transferable. A freestanding SAR will be exercisable as determined by the Administrator but in no event after 10 years from the date of grant.

(b) Exercise Price: Each grant agreement states the related option exercise price, which, in the case of SARs, may not be less than 100% of the fair market value of the Company’s shares of common stock on the date of the grant. The exercise price of an incentive stock option granted to a 10% stockholder may not be less than 110% of the fair market value of shares of the Company's Common StockCompany’s common stock on the date of grant.

(c) Method of Exercise: The option exercise price is typically payable in cash, common stock or a combination of cash of common stock, as determined by the Administrator, but may also be payable, at the discretion of the Administrator, in a number of other forms of consideration.

32

(d) Recapitalization; Change of Control: The number of shares subject to any award, and additional 2,500the number of shares issuable under the 2017 Plan, are subject to chairmenproportionate adjustment in the event of committees. Ina stock dividend, spin-off, split-up, recapitalization, merger, consolidation, business combination or exchange of shares and the like. Except as otherwise provided in any written agreement between the participant and the Company in effect when a change in control occurs, in the event an acquiring company does not assume plan awards (i) all outstanding options and SARs shall become fully vested and exercisable; (ii) for performance-based awards, all performance goals or performance criteria shall be deemed achieved at target levels and all other terms and conditions met, with award payout prorated for the portion of the performance period completed as of the change in control and payment to occur within 45 days of the change in control; (iii) all restrictions and conditional applicable to any restricted stock award shall lapse; (iv) all restrictions and conditions applicable to any restricted stock units shall lapse and payment shall be made within 45 days of the change in control; and (v) all other awards shall be delivered or paid within 45 days of the change in control.

(e) Other Provisions: The option grant and exercise agreements authorized under the 2017 Plan, which may be different for each option, may contain such other provisions as the Administrator deems advisable, including without limitation, (i) restrictions upon the exercise of the option and (ii) a right of repurchase in favor of the Company to repurchase unvested shares held by an optionee upon termination of the optionee’s employment at the original purchase price.

Amendment and Termination of the 2017 Plan. The Administrator, to the extent permitted by law, and with respect to any shares at the time not subject to awards, may suspend or discontinue the 2017 Plan or amend the 2017 Plan in any respect; provided that the Administrator may not, without approval of the stockholders, amend the 2017 Plan in a manner that requires stockholder approval.

MARKET PRICE OF AND DIVIDENDS ON COMMON EQUITY AND

RELATED STOCKHOLDER MATTERS

Our common stock is quoted on the OTC Market under the symbol “NORD”. There is very limited trading of our common stock. On October 23, 2023, the last reported sale price of our common stock was $0.65 per share. The stock market in general has experienced extreme stock price fluctuations in the past few years. In some cases, these fluctuations have been unrelated to the operating performance of the affected companies. Many companies have experienced dramatic volatility in the market prices of their common stock. We believe that a number of factors, both within and outside our control, could cause the price of our common stock to fluctuate, perhaps substantially. Factors such as the following could have a significant adverse impact on the market price of our common stock:

Our ability to obtain additional financing and the terms thereof;
Our financial position and results of operations;
Any litigation against us;
Possible regulatory requirements on our business;

35

The issuance of new debt or equity securities pursuant to a future offering;
Changes in interest rates;
Competitive developments;
Variations and fluctuations in our operating results;
Change in financial estimates by securities analysts;
The depth and liquidity of the market for our common stock;
Investor perceptions of us; and
General economic and business conditions.

Description of Warrants

On April 11, 2022, effective April 1, 2022, we issued to GK Partners, for financial services, a warrant to immediately purchase up to 6,000,000 shares of our common stock are entitled to share equally on aat an exercise price of $1.00 per share basis in such dividendswhich expires on December 31, 2023. In determining the fair value of the warrant, we used the Black-Scholes pricing model having the following assumptions: (i) stock option exercise price of $1.00; (ii) fair market value of our common stock of $1.22 as may be declared byquoted on the OTC Markets on the date of issuance of the Warrant; (iii) expected term of option of 1.75 years; (iv) expected volatility of 699.79%; (v) expected dividend rate of 0.0%; and (vi) risk-free interest rate of approximately 2.44%. As a result, we recorded stock-based compensation of approximately $7,316,971 for the year ended March 31, 2023.

On November 28, 2022, we issued 1) to David Volpe a warrant to purchase 500,000 shares of our board of directors out of funds legally available therefore, if at all. There are presently no planscommon stock and 2) to pay dividends with respectBennett J. Yankowitz a warrant to thepurchase 250,000 shares of our common stock. UponThe warrants have an exercise price of $1.00 per share and expire on December 31, 2027. Mr. Volpe’s warrants were issued as compensation for consulting services provided to the Company. Mr. Yankowitz’s warrants were issued as compensation for his acting as our liquidation, dissolution or winding up, after payment of creditorssole Director and the holdersChief Executive Officer.

Anti-Takeover Provisions

Certain provisions of anyDelaware law, our amended certificate of incorporation and our bylaws, which are summarized below, may have the effect of delaying, deferring or discouraging another person from acquiring control of us. They are also designed, in part, to encourage persons seeking to acquire control of us to negotiate first with our board of directors. We believe that the benefits of increased protection of our senior securities, including preferred stock, if any,potential ability to negotiate with an unfriendly or unsolicited acquirer outweigh the disadvantages of discouraging a proposal to acquire us because negotiation of these proposals could result in an improvement of their terms.

Amended Certificate of Incorporation and Bylaw Provisions

Our amended certificate of incorporation and our assets will be divided pro rata onbylaws include a per share basis among the holdersnumber of the shares of our common stock. Our common stock is not subject to any liability for further assessments. There are no conversionprovisions that could deter hostile takeovers or redemption privileges nor any sinking fund provisions with respect to our common stock. The holders of our common stock do not have any pre-emptivedelay or other subscription rights.

        Holders of shares of our common stock are entitled to cast one vote for each share held at all stockholders' meetings for all purposes, including the election of directors. Our board of directors is currently divided into three classes having staggered terms of three years each. The common stock does not have cumulative voting rights.

        All of the issued and outstanding shares of our common stock are fully paid, validly issued and non-assessable.

Dividends

        The payment of dividends, if any,prevent changes in the future, rests within the sole discretioncontrol of our board of directors. The paymentdirectors or management team, including the following:

Board of dividendsDirectors Vacancies

Our amended certificate of incorporation and bylaws authorize only our Board of Directors to fill vacant directorships, including newly created seats. In addition, the number of directors constituting our board of directors will depend uponbe permitted to be set only by a resolution adopted by a majority vote of our earnings,entire Board of Directors. These provisions would prevent a stockholder from increasing the size of our Board of Directors and then gaining control of our Board of Directors by filling the resulting vacancies with its own nominees. This will make it more difficult to change the composition of our Board of Directors and will promote continuity of management.

Stockholder Action; Special Meeting of Stockholders

Our amended Certificate of Incorporation provides that special meetings of our stockholders may be called only by a majority of our Board of Directors, the chairperson of our Board of Directors, our Chief Executive Officer or our President, thus prohibiting a stockholder from calling a special meeting.

        The following unaudited pro forma combined condensed consolidated financial statements

We have been prepareda limited public market for our common stock and a limited number of shares in the public float. Sales of substantial amounts of our common stock in the public market resulting from this offering could adversely affect the prevailing market price and our ability to giveraise capital in the future.

As of the date of this prospectus, we have 10,876,248 shares of common stock issued and outstanding. Upon the completion of this offering, we will have outstanding an aggregate of up to an additional 8,980,857 shares of common stock that includes the shares of the Selling Stockholders. All 8,980,857 shares included in this offering will be freely tradable without restriction or further registration under the Securities Act. Of the 10,876,248 shares of our common stock outstanding prior to the completion of this offering and held by existing stockholders, approximately 444,810 shares are currently free trading and the remaining are “restricted securities” as that term is defined in Rule 144 under the Securities Act. Restricted shares may be sold in the public market only if registered or if they qualify for exemption under Rule 144 or 701 promulgated under the Securities Act, which rules are summarized below, or another exemption.

Rule 144

In general, under Rule 144, as currently in effect, a person who owns shares that were acquired from us or one of our affiliates at least six months prior to the proposed mergersale is entitled to sell, within any three-month period beginning 90 days after the date of CardioTech and CarTika Medical, Inc. usingthis prospectus, a number of shares that does not exceed the purchase method of accounting and the assumptions and adjustments described in the accompanying notesgreater of:

One percent of the number of shares of common stock then outstanding, which will equal approximately 694,351 shares immediately after this offering; or
The average weekly trading volume of the common stock on a national securities exchange during the four calendar weeks preceding the filing of a notice on Form 144 with respect to such sale.
In addition to these volume limitations, sales of unregistered shares of our common stock in reliance on Rule 144 may only be made by affiliates if such sales:

are preceded by a notice filing on Form 144;
are limited to broker’s transactions, as such term is defined under Section 4(a)(4) of the Securities Act; and
only occur at a time when current public information about us is available, which generally would require that we are not delinquent with any of our reports required pursuant to Sections 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act. Rule 144 also provides that our affiliates who sell shares of our common stock that are not restricted shares must nonetheless comply with the same restrictions applicable to restricted shares, with the exception of the holding period requirement.

If the non-affiliate has held the shares for at least one year, then the shares may be sold without regard to the public information provisions of Rule 144.

Penny Stock Rules

Broker-dealer practices in connection with transactions in penny stocks are regulated by certain penny stock rules adopted by the SEC. Penny stocks generally are equity securities with a price of less than US $5.00. Penny stock rules require a broker- dealer, prior to a transaction in a penny stock not otherwise exempt from the rules, to deliver a standardized risk disclosure document that provides information about penny stocks and the CarTika Medical Inc. statements of operationsrisks in the penny stock market. The broker-dealer also must provide the customer with current bid and offer quotations for the nine months ended December 31, 2004penny stock, the compensation of the broker-dealer and year ended March 31, 2004, respectively, have been combined giving effectits salesperson in the transaction, and monthly account statements showing the market value of each penny stock held in the customer’s account. In addition, the penny stock rules generally require that prior to a transaction in a penny stock, the broker-dealer make a special written determination that the penny stock is a suitable investment for the purchaser and receive the purchaser’s written agreement to the mergertransaction. These disclosure requirements may have the effect of reducing the level of trading activity in the secondary market for a stock that becomes subject to the penny stock rules. Our shares may in the future be subject to such penny stock rules in which care our stockholders would, in all likelihood, as if it had occurred on April 1, 2003 (the fiscal year ended March 31, 2003).

Limited Operating History; Background of CardioTech

Results of Operations

Three and Nine Months Ended December 31, 2004 vs. December 31, 2003

        The Company has adopted a Plan of Operation, which has a dual focus on the development of new cardiovascular products and the continued improvement and expansion of its medical device operations. The Company has managed its business in fiscal 2005 and 2004 on the basis of one reportable operating segment: Medical Device Manufacturing and Sales. However, within this segment the Company serves a variety of customer needs.

        The Company plans to continue its efforts towards the receipt of marketing approval in the European Union for its synthetic layered microporous coronary artery bypass graft trade named CardioPass. The Company intends to seek approval from its notified body of a requirements list for the receipt of European Union marketing approval. The Company anticipates that research and development expenses will continue to increase as it continues its efforts toward receipt of the requirements list for marketing approval and it commences actions required to receive European marketing approval. Future research and development expenses will depend on the requirements list. However, the Company has the ability to exercise a great deal of control over research and development expenditures to ensure the efforts undertaken match the funds available. The Company is currently unable to estimate if or when it will receive marketing approval, however, its Plan is to receive the notified body's approval of the requirements in this fiscal year, 2005.

        The Company, in March 2004, joined with Implant Sciences, Inc. (IMX on American Stock Exchange) to participate in the funding of CorNova, Inc. CorNova, Inc. was formed to develop a novel coronary drug eluting stent using the combined capabilities and technology of CorNova, Implant Sciences, Inc. and the Company. The Company currently has a thirty per cent equity interest in CorNova. CorNova completed its initial funding February 4, 2005 by obtaining private investments totaling $3,000,000, at which time the Company became obligated to contribute 308,642 shares of its common stock with a market value at the time of contribution of twenty-five per cent of the amount raised ($750,000). The stent will utilize the Company's Chronoflex polyurethane as a drug depot. CorNova is in its initial stage of product development and is unable to accurately estimate when, or if, it will complete its product development efforts, obtain marketing approval or commence sales, however, it is CorNova's Plan to have an initial non-drug eluding stent obtain market approval in the European Union in calendar year 2005. The Company accounts for its investment in CorNova using the equity method of accounting and anticipates that CorNova will incur operating losses during its development stage period, the length of which cannot be determined at this time. For the nine months ended December 31, 2004, the Company recorded a $37,000 charge for its equity in the net loss of CorNova, Inc. for the same period.



        The cardiac surgery market is the primary market within the medical device industry that the Company serves. The Company generates revenue from the manufacture and sale of single use, disposable medical devices, from the operation as an outsourcing source for medical device OEM and development companies, from the manufacture, sale or license of technology of specialized polymer based materials and the sale of wound dressings. Product sales of the Company for the three months ended December 31, 2004 increased when compared to the three months ended December 31, 2003, as disposable medical device sales and biomaterial sales each increased approximately $100,000, but this increase was partially offset by a decrease of outsourcing revenue of approximately $100,000. Product sales of the Company for the nine months ended December 31, 2004 decreased compared to the nine months ended December 31, 2003 as outsourcing revenue decreased approximately $550,000, which was partially offset by an increase in disposable medical device and biomaterial sales of approximately $300,000 and $75,000, respectively.

        The Company's Plan is to continue its gradual increase in market share and to identify strategic alliances and acquisition opportunities that are synergistic with its available production capabilities and/or our sales organization. The Company has also previously announced that it is now marketing the Gish Biocompatible Surface (GBS™) heparin coating, which will now allow the Company to compete in the significant portion of the market that will only purchase heparin coated cardiopulmonary bypass products.

        The decrease in gross margin percentage to 22% and 26% for the three and nine months ended December 31, 2004 from 25% and 29% for the three and nine months ended December 31, 2003 resulted primarily from the loss of certain economies of scale and loss of the higher than average margin contribution due to the decline in outsourcing revenues. Additionally, the Company in the three months ended December 31, 2004, recorded an increase of $100,000 to its reserve for slow-moving inventory.

        Research and development expenses for the three and nine months ended December 31, 2004 compared with the same periods in the prior year increased due to an increase in CardioPass related expenditures of approximately $180,000, and is expected to increase in future quarters as the CardioPass graft development accelerates. The increase in selling and marketing expenses for the three and nine months ended December 31, 2004 compared with the same periods in the prior year is due primarily to marketing efforts of the wound dressings and increased outsourcing revenue generation efforts. The increase in general and administrative expenses for the nine months ended December 31, 2004 compared to the same prior year period is due to an increase in the Company's allowance for doubtful accounts of $230,000 at December 31, 2004 and a general increase in costs related to a variety of business activities. The increase in the allowance for doubtful accounts relates to one customer for which the Company performs outsourcing services ($80,000) and one customer to which the Company sells disposable medical devices ($150,000).

        Effective April 30, 2003, the former CEO of Gish resigned from his position. In accordance with his employment agreement, he was to receive severance payments equal to two years of his base salary, which totaled $360,000. An initial payment of $90,000 was made in May 2003 and the remaining was paid in eighteen equal monthly payments. The full amount of the severance obligation, including estimated payroll taxes, of $372,000, was recorded as severance payment in April 2003.

        In Fiscal 2003, the Company issued 95,000 treasury shares to various employees and board members for their effort in the Gish transaction. Subsequently, two board members gave the stock back to the Company. The fair market value of these treasury shares was approximately $293,000, which was recorded as a non-cash compensation expense in the accompanying Condensed Statements of Operations. The Company also recorded non-cash compensation expense of $55,000 related to options granted to non-employees.



        During fiscal 2004, Credent paid CardioTech $400,000 due to the sale of a controlling interest in Credent pursuant to a technology and license agreement relating to Chronoflex RC. The payment was net against $17,000 of accounts receivable due from Credent and is recorded as other income of $383,000 in the three months ended June 30, 2003.

        In January, 2005 we entered into an employment agreement with Dr. Michael Szycher, pursuant to which said individual serves as Chief Executive Officer of CardioTech. The initial term of the employment agreement expires on December 31, 2007.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

        Through December 31, 2004, the Company continued to generate revenues from the sale of biomaterials and royalties earned on biomaterials; the performance of outsourced research and development and manufacturing contracts and the manufacture and sale of specialized disposable medical devices.

        During the nine months ended December 31, 2004, the Company used cash totaling $353,000 in operating activities as compared to generating cash of $986,000 for the same period in the prior year. The change related primarily to non cash stock and compensation expenses of $939,000 included in operating results for the nine months ended December 31, 2003 and fluctuations in working capital balance sheet accounts at December 31, 2004 compared to December 31, 2003. Fluctuations in working capital balance sheet accounts are normal between periods.

        On December 22, 2004, the Company issued 1,139,586 shares of its common stock at $2.40 per share in a private placement receiving $2,735,006 in gross proceeds, less placement agent fees and related transaction costs of approximately $284,000.

        In connection with the transaction, the Company issued warrants to the investors to purchase 569,793 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $3.00 per share, which are exercisable until December 22, 2009. In addition, the investors have rights to purchase up to 1,139,586 shares of common stock at a price of $2.40 per share, which are exercisable for a period commencing on December 22, 2004 and ending on the earlier of (i) December 22, 2005 or (ii) ninety (90) business days after the effective date of a registration statement, which was filed January 19, 2005. We also issued warrants to the placement agent to purchase 113,959 shares of our common stock at an exercise price of $2.40 per share and 56,979 shares of our common stock at an exercise price of $3.00 per share, which are exercisable until December 22, 2009. Should the investors exercise the additional investment rights (described above), the placement agent will receive an additional warrant up to 113,959 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $2.40 per share. If all warrants and additional investment rights are exercised, the Company would receive gross proceeds of $5,162,326, less related transaction costs.

        During the nine months ended December 31, 2004, stock options for 77,349 shares of the Company's common stock were exercised, resulting in net cash proceeds of approximately $101,000 to the Company. During the nine months ended December 31, 2003, stock options and warrants for 2,913,705 shares of the Company's common stock were exercised, resulting in net cash proceeds of approximately $4,602,000 to the Company.

        During the nine months ended December 31, 2004, the Company made open market purchases of 22,800 shares of the Company's common stock at an aggregate cost of approximately $83,000. During the nine months ended December 31, 2003, the Company made open market purchases of 30,384 shares of the Company's common stock at an aggregate cost of approximately $96,000.

        In December 2000, Gish entered into a $2,000,000 three-year revolving line of credit agreement. In February 2002, the revolving line of credit agreement was amended to extend the agreement for an additional year and increase the line to $4,000,000. At December 31, 2004, Gish had no outstanding



balance under the revolving line of credit and the revolving line of credit agreement was terminated by the Company in January 2005.

        On November 19, 2004, the Company entered into a definitive agreement (the "Asset Purchase Agreement") to acquire substantially all of the assets and assume certain liabilities of CarTika Medical, Inc., a privately owned medical device contract manufacturer headquartered in Plymouth, Minnesota ("CarTika"). As part of the transaction, the Company will issue to the stockholders of CarTika, consideration, consisting of shares of the Company's common stock, equal in value to $1,662,000, with the number of shares based upon the fair market value of the common stock at the date of closing ("Stock Consideration"), and $4,985,000 in cash ("Cash Consideration"). The transaction is expected to be completed by March 31, 2005. The Company had paid $150,000 of the Cash Consideration at December 31, 2004.

        As of December 31, 2004, CardioTech was conducting its operations with approximately $7,756,000 in cash and cash equivalents. CardioTech believes its current cash position will be sufficient to fund its working capital and research and development activities for at least the next twelve months, and to fund the cash requirement related to the CarTika acquisition. The Company paid $1,750,000 in cash to purchase its new Corporate Headquarters in Wilmington, MA. in fiscal 2004 and will evaluate various options to subsequently mortgage the new building, if funds are required. At December 31, 2004 the Company had no long-term debt.

Results of Operations for Year Ended March 31, 2004 vs. March 31, 2003

        CardioTech has adopted a Plan of Operation, which has a dual focus on the development of new cardiovascular products and the continued improvement and expansion of its medical device operations.

        CardioTech plans to continue its efforts towards the receipt of marketing approval in the European Union for its synthetic layered microporous coronary artery bypass graft trade named CardioPass. CardioTech intends to seek approval from its notified body of a requirements list for the receipt of European Union marketing approval. CardioTech anticipates that research and development expenses will continue at a rate comparable with the current year until the requirements list for marketing approval is agreed to with the selected notified body. Future research and development expenses will depend on the requirements list. However, CardioTech has the ability to exercise a great deal of control over research and development expenditures to ensure the efforts undertaken match the funds available. CardioTech is currently unable to estimate if or when it will receive marketing approval, however, its Plan is to receive the notified body's approval of the requirements in this fiscal year 2005.

        CardioTech, in March 2004, joined with Implant Sciences, Inc. (IMX on American Stock Exchange) to participate in the funding of CorNova, Inc. CorNova, Inc. was formed to develop a novel coronary drug eluting stent using the combined capabilities and technology of CorNova, Implant Sciences, Inc. and CardioTech. CardioTech currently has a thirty per cent equity interest in CorNova. CorNova intends to complete its initial funding with the next twelve months by obtaining private investments totaling between $1,000,000 and $3,000,000, at which time CardioTech will be required to contribute shares of its common stock with a market value at the time of contribution of twenty-five per cent of the amount raised. CorNova's Plan is to commence its product development activities prior to the completion of the initial funding. The stent will utilize a design similar to the CardioPass and CardioTech's Chronoflex material. CorNova is in its initial stage of product development and is unable to accurately estimate when, or if, it will complete its product development efforts, obtain marketing approval or commence sales, however, it is CorNova's Plan to have an initial non-drug eluding stent obtain market approval in the European Union in the next twelve months. CardioTech accounts for its investment in CorNova using the equity method of accounting and anticipates that CorNova will incur operating losses during its development stage period, the length of which cannot be determined at this time.



        CardioTech's medical device operations are comprised of Gish Biomedical, Inc. (Gish), Catheter and Disposables Technology, Inc. (CDT), Dermaphylyx, Inc., and the Biomaterials division of CardioTech.

(Gish was acquired on April 7, 2003 and its results from that date have been included in the consolidated statements of operations for the year ended March 31, 2004)

        Gish operates in a very competitive market and competes against companies who have both a financial and size advantage. The cardiac surgery market, which is the primary market Gish serves, has been negatively impacted by the introduction of stents and "beating heart" surgeries. Prior to the acquisition by CardioTech, Gish incurred net losses on a stand-alone basis since 1997, peaking at losses of approximately $2.9 million in 2001. Following the acquisition, without the severance charge for its former president of $372,000, Gish would have recorded a net income of $216,000 in fiscal 2004. CardioTech's Plan for Gish is to continue its gradual increase in market share and to identify strategic alliances and acquisition opportunities that are synergistic with our available production capabilities and/or our sales organization. Gish has also previously announced that it is now marketing Gish Biocompatible Surface (GBS™) coating, which will now allow Gish to compete in the significant portion of the market that will only purchase coated products.

        CDT operates as an outsourcing source for medical device OEM and development companies. CDT has differentiated itself from traditional contract manufacturers by focusing on providing innovative, unique and complete product development solutions combined with the capability to provide full production manufacturing. CDT works to become an extension of the customer's research and development group, instead of the traditional approach of a contract manufacturer of being an extension of the manufacturing group. Many medical device companies have embraced outsourcing as a more efficient, economic and manageable method to bring products through the development to production cycle. CardioTech believes this "niche" of the medical device outsourcing market is a growing market, which will provide future growth opportunities for CDT. CardioTech's plan for CDT is to position CDT for future growth through gradual expansion of its product development and manufacturing capabilities and to explore synergistic acquisition opportunities. CDT's increase in revenue results primarily from its ability to capture more of the manufacturing opportunities generated by its product development activities. The gross profit percentage decrease relates primarily to sales mix.

        Dermaphylyx has just started marketing its wound dressing products and currently has two moist wound dressings available for sale, AlgiMed and HydroMed and Blist-Rx, a blister prevention dressing. AlgiMed wound dressings are designed for exudating and bleeding wounds and HydroMed is an absorbent dressing designed for low exudating wounds. Both dressings have been granted Medicare billing codes. Blist-Rx is a breathable polyurethane foam dressing intended to be used by sports enthusiasts to prevent blisters. CardioTech plans to continue development of additional wound dressing products. CardioTech is currently focusing its efforts on establishing distribution relationships and anticipates that the revenue contribution from Dermaphylyx will not be significant for the 2005 fiscal year.


        Biomaterials revenue is comparable with the prior fiscal year and CardioTech expects minimal, if any, near term growth. However, Biomaterials has provided the platform for the development of CardioPass, provides CDT the ability to provide innovative solutions to its customers and has provided a royalty revenue source. CardioTech believes that Biomaterials will continue to generate new business opportunities.

        Royalty revenue is comparable with the prior fiscal year and has the potential for continued gradual increase as CardioTech continues to explore other uses for its patented materials.

        The increase in research and development, selling and marketing and general and administrative expenses relate primarily to the acquisition of Gish and inclusion of Gish's results in fiscal 2004. If the Gish results were excluded, the fiscal 2004 results for the remaining entities are comparable to fiscal 2003. Research and development expenses consist primarily of employees' salaries and related costs.

        For fiscal 2004 CardioTech had a non-cash compensation expense of $1,171,000. These non-cash items were comprised of a $344,000 expense due to warrant modifications for 80,000 shares of common stock, a $210,000 expense due to the issuance of 40,000 shares of common stock to Implant pursuant to the joint research program on developing a drug-eluting stent and a $92,000 expense for stock options granted to two consultants. Additionally, there was a non-cash expense of $293,000 related to the issuance of 95,000 treasury shares to various employees and board members for their effort in the Gish transaction and a $232,000 expense related to stock options granted at a discount to a consultant.

        CardioTech had $645,000 in other income for fiscal 2004. During fiscal 2004, Credent paid CardioTech $400,000 due to the sale of a controlling interest in Credent pursuant to a technology and license agreement relating to Chronoflex RC. The payment was net against $17,000 of accounts receivable due from Credent and is recorded as other income of $383,000 in the statement of operations. CardioTech also recognized income of $237,000 from the recovery of a previously written off receivable and $25,000 of rental income.

        CardioTech had net losses of $1,515,000 and $963,000 in fiscal 2004 and 2003, respectively. The increase in Net Loss for fiscal 2004 compared to fiscal 2003 resulted from the inclusion of Gish in fiscal 2004 (loss of $156,000) offset by an increase in gross profit of the Company's other entities and the inclusion in net losses in fiscal 2004 of an accrual for severance costs of $372,000 for the former president of Gish, non-cash compensation and research and development expenses of $1,171,000 and other income of $645,000 which included repayment of a note previously charged-off and a payment by Credent.

Critical Accounting Policies

        Our significant accounting policies are summarized in Note A to our consolidated financial statements. However, certain of our accounting policies require the application of significant judgment by our management, and such judgments are reflected in the amounts reported in our consolidated financial statements. In applying these policies, our management uses its judgment to determine the appropriate assumptions to be used in the determination of estimates. Those estimates are based on our historical experience, terms of existing contracts, our observance of market trends, information provided by our strategic partners and information available from other outside sources, as appropriate.



Actual results may differ significantly from the estimates contained in our consolidated financial statements. Our critical accounting policies are as follows:


Results of Operations

Year Ended March 31, 2003 vs. March 31, 2002

        Revenue for the year ended March 31, 2003 was $3,394,000 as compared to $3,220,000 for the comparable prior year period, an increase of $174,000 or 5%. This increase is attributable primarily to increases in product sales and royalty revenue, offset by decreases in research grants and contracts. Biomaterial product sales were $539,000 for the year ended March 31, 2003 as compared to $587,000 for the comparable prior year period, a decrease of $48,000 or 8%. The Company continues to focus its efforts on growing revenues from its CDT subsidiary; accordingly, the Company will experience minimal, if any, near term growth from its current biomaterials business. Product sales from CDT, the wholly owned outsourced research and development and manufacturing subsidiary, were $2,343,000 for the year ended March 31, 2003 as compared to $1,962,000 for the comparable prior year period, an increase of $381,000 or 19%. The manufacturing revenue for fiscal 2003 was $717,000 compared to $601,000 for fiscal 2002, a 19% increase in the amount of outsourced manufacturing performed for customers who were initially contract research and development customers. The contract research and development revenue for fiscal 2003 was $1,626,000 compared to $1,361,000 for fiscal 2002, an increase of 19%. This is consistent with Company's strategy to take customers from the research and development projects for which we are initially contracted and perform the manufacturing of resultant products for these customers. Royalty revenue for the year ended March 31, 2003 was $426,000 as compared to $392,000 for the comparable prior year period, an increase of $34,000 or 9%. The increase is primarily the result of $100,000 of royalties received in fiscal 2003 in connection with a technology transfer and license agreement (See Note N of the Consolidated Financial Statements) offset by a $65,000 decrease due to the cancellation of an exclusivity contract. Research grants and contracts revenue for the year ended March 31, 2003 was $88,000 as compared to $278,000 for the



comparable prior year period, a decrease of $190,000 or 68%. The decrease is primarily attributable to the completion of one grant and management's decision to focus on continued growth opportunities within our CDT subsidiary and the evaluation of other strategic acquisition opportunities. During fiscal 2003, four customers accounted for 53% of total revenue and during fiscal 2002, these same four customers accounted for 29% of total revenue.

        Cost of product sales for the year ended March 31, 2003 was $2,062,000, as compared to $1,726,000 for the comparable prior year period, an increase of $336,000, or 19%. The increase in cost of product sales is primarily attributable to the increase in sales of CDT products. Overall gross margins on product sales was approximately 38% for the year ended March 31, 2003 as compared to gross margins of 41% for the comparable prior year period. Our CDT subsidiary realized gross margin of 41% for the year ended March 31, 2003 as compared to 41% for the comparable prior year period. Cost of research grants and contracts for the year ended March 31, 2003 was $61,000 as compared to $228,000 for the comparable prior year period, a decrease of $167,000, or 73%. The decrease is primarily attributable to a decrease in research grants.

        Research and development expense for the year ended March 31, 2003 was $313,000, as compared to $273,000 for the comparable prior year period, an increase of $40,000, or 15%. The increased spending is attributable to consultant costs for CABG pre-clinical trial preparation.

        Selling, general and administrative expense for the year ended March 31, 2003 was $1,965,000, as compared to $3,070,000 for the comparable prior year period, a decrease of $1,105,000, or 36%. This decrease is primarily attributable to the inclusion of approximately $729,000 of non-cash stock based compensation charges related to the fair value of options granted to consultants in the year ended March 31, 2002. Additionally, approximately $350,000 of goodwill amortization was included in selling, general and administrative expenses for the year ended March 31, 2002. We did not incur any such charges in the year ended March 31, 2003.

        The Company had no interest expense for the year ended March 31, 2003 as compared to $23,000 for the comparable prior year period, a decrease of $23,000. The decrease in interest expense is attributable to the elimination of all debt as a result of Dresdner Kleinwort Benson's conversion of its remaining $398,000 long-term debt into 433,094 shares of the Company's common stock in February 2002. Interest income for the year ended March 31, 2003 was $44,000 as compared to $114,000 for the comparable prior year period, a decrease of $70,000, or 61%. The decrease in interest income is attributable to both lower interest rates and lower excess cash held in money market funds.

        For the year ended March 31, 2003 we recorded a net loss of $963,000 as compared to $1,971,000 for the comparable prior year period, a decrease in net loss of $1,008,000, or 51%. The decrease in net loss is primarily attributable to the increase in overall revenues and decreases in selling, general and administrative expenses. Basic and diluted net loss per share for the year ended March 31, 2003 was $0.11 per share as compared to basic and diluted net loss per share of $0.23 per share for the comparable prior year period, a decrease in net loss per share of $0.12, or 52%.

Critical Accounting Policies

        Our significant accounting policies are summarized in Note A to our consolidated financial statements. However, certain of our accounting policies require the application of significant judgment by our management, and such judgments are reflected in the amounts reported in our consolidated financial statements. In applying these policies, our management uses its judgment to determine the appropriate assumptions to be used in the determination of estimates. Those estimates are based on our historical experience, terms of existing contracts, our observance of market trends, information provided by our strategic partners and information available from other outside sources, as appropriate.



Actual results may differ significantly from the estimates contained in our consolidated financial statements. Our critical accounting policies are as follows:

Forward Looking Statements

        The Company believes that this Registration Statement on Form S-1 contains forward-looking statements that are subject to certain risks and uncertainties. These forward- looking statements include statements such as (i) the expected performance of its grafts, (ii) the expected size of the market for the Company's products in development, (iii) HydroThane's bacterial resistance, clot resistance, and biocompatibility, and (iv) the sufficiency of the Company's liquidity and capital and the steps that would be taken in the event funding is not available. Such statements are based on management's current expectations and are subject to a number of factors and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from the forward-looking statements. The Company cautions investors that there can be no assurance that actual results or business conditions will not differ materially from those projected or suggested in such forward-looking statements as a result of various factors.



QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

        As of March 31, 2004, CardioTech was conducting its operations with approximately $7,117,000 in cash and cash equivalents, of which $6,503,000 was generated during fiscal 2004 from the exercise of stock options and warrants. CardioTech believes its current cash position will be sufficient to fund its working capital and research and development activities for at least the next twelve months. The majority of cash is invested in money marker accounts which are subject to fluctuations in interest rates.

        Currently the Company has only two significant suppliers paid in foreign currency. The Company purchases approximately one million dollars annually from a supplier with the cost fixed in euros and settled in euros therefore there is a risk associated with currency flucuations. Additionally, the Company has a manufacturing agreement with a foreign supplier with the costs fixed in pounds and settled in pounds. Management believes the amounts being purchased are not significant at this time.



CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS

        To the best of our knowledge, other than as set forth below, there were no material transactions, or series of similar transactions, or any currently proposed transactions, or series of similar transactions, to which we were or are to be a party, in which the amount involved exceeds $60,000, and in which any director or executive officer, or any stockholder who is known by us to own of record or beneficially more than 5% of any class of our common stock, or any member of the immediate family of any of the foregoing persons, has an interest.

        CardioTech has entered into an employment arrangement with Scott Szycher, the son of Dr. Michael Szycher, our Chairman, President, Chief Executive Officer and Treasurer. Mr. Scott Szycher is the worldwide sales manager for the DermaPhylyx division and is responsible for coordinating the sales and marketing activities of the DermaPylyx division. Mr. Scott Szycher is paid an annual salary of $65,000 per year.

Employment Contracts

        See "Executive Compensation" below.

Change in Control Arrangements

        Substantially all of the stock options granted pursuant to the 1996 Plan and the 2003 Plan provide for the acceleration of the vesting of the shares of Common Stock subject to such options in connection with certain changes in control of CardioTech.

Compensation Committee Interlocks and Insider Participation

        Other than Mr. Adams, no person serving on the Compensation and Stock Option Committee at any time during fiscal year 2004 was a present or former officer or employee of CardioTech or any of its subsidiaries. During fiscal year 2004, other than Dr. Szycher, no executive officer of CardioTech served as a member of the board of directors or compensation and stock option committee (or other board committee performing equivalent functions) of another entity, one of whose executive officers served on CardioTech's Board or Compensation and Stock Option Committee.

All options were granted at an exercise price per share equal tothe fair market value of the Common Stock on the date of grant, determined by the closing priceon the American Stock Exchange on the trading day immediately preceding the grant date. Options, normally vest in four approximately equal annual installments, with the initial tranche vesting on the date of grant and normally expire ten years from the date of the grant.

Upon completion of the Gish transaction, Michael Szycher was granted a fully vested stock option for 1,017,330 shares at an exercise price of $0.92.

        On July 8, 2004, the Board of Directors accelerated the vesting of all outstanding options, such that at July 8, 2004, all outstanding options are fully vested. Accordingly, all options shown as unexercisable at March 31, 2004, are exercisable effective July 8, 2004.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Nature of Business

        CardioTech International, Inc. (including its subsidiaries, collectively "CardioTech" or the "Company") is using its proprietary technology to develop and manufacture small bore vascular grafts, or synthetic blood vessels, made of ChronoFlex, a family of polyurethanes, that has been demonstrated to be biocompatible and non-toxic.

        Additionally, the Company's wholly owned subsidiary, Catheter and Disposables Technology, Inc. ("CDT"), is an original equipment manufacturer; supplier of specialized disposable medical devices to medical device companies from concept to finished packaged, sterile product; and uses its experience in the design, development, prototyping and manufacturing to provide turnkey contract services. Some devices designed, developed and manufactured for customers by CDT include sensing, balloon, and drug delivery catheters; disposable endoscopes; andin-vitro diagnostic and surgical disposables.

        The Company acquired Gish Biomedical Inc. ("Gish") on April 7, 2003. Gish manufactures certain single use medical devices and medical devices that have a disposal component. These products are marketed primarily to hospitals through direct sales representatives and distributors domestically and internationally through distributors. Gish's primary markets include products for use in cardiac surgery, myocardial management, infusion therapy, and post operative blood salvage. (Refer to Note J for further discussion of acquisition.)

        In July 1999, Dermaphylyx International, Inc. ("Dermaphylyx"), a related party, was formed by certain affiliates of CardioTech to develop advanced wound healing products. Dermaphylyx was merged into CardioTech International, Inc., effective March 12, 2004 and is now a wholly owned subsidiary of CardioTech. Due to CardioTech's controlling financial interest, Dermaphylyx has been consolidated in the financial statements of CardioTech as of December 31, 2003. Prior to December 31, 2003, the operations and total assets of Dermaphylyx were not material to CardioTech. Upon the merger, the current stockholders of Dermaphylyx received 3,827 shares of common stock of CardioTech valued at the net book value of Dermaphylyx International, Inc., which was approximately $21,000.

        The Company is headquartered in Wilmington, Massachusetts, where it operates its biomaterials manufacturing and laboratory facilities. CDT operates contract research and development services and outsourced manufacturing from its facility in Plymouth, Minnesota. Gish's office and manufacturing facilities are located in Rancho Santa Margarita, California.

        Effective March 5, 2004 the Company exchanged 12,931 shares of its common stock for 1,500,000 shares of common stock of CorNova, Inc., which currently represents an ownership interest of 30%. CorNova is a development stage enterprise, formed to develop a drug eluding stent based upon the Company's Chronoflex technology.

A.    Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Basis of Presentation

        CardioTech was incorporated in March 1993. CardioTech and CardioTech International, Ltd. ("CTL") were spun off of PolyMedica Industries, Inc. ("PMI") in June 1996. CardioTech Acquisition Corp, a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, was incorporated in April 1999. CTL was sold in November 2000.

        The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated. The Company's investment in CorNova is accounted for using the equity method of accounting.



Uses of Estimates

        The preparation of financial statements2022, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements andof America.

Explanatory Paragraph – Going Concern

The accompanying notes. Actual results may differ from those estimates and such differences may be material to the financial statements.

Uncertainties

        The Company is subject to risks common to companies in the medical device industry, including, but not limited to, development of new technology innovations by competitors of the Company, dependence on key personnel, protection of proprietary technology, and compliance with FDA government regulations.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

        Cash and cash equivalents include cash on hand, demand deposits and short-term investments with original maturities of three months or less. Cash equivalents represent a deposit in a money market account.

Supplemental Disclosure of Cash Flow Information

        For fiscal years ended March 31, 2004 and 2003, the Company received interest income of $45,000 and $44,000 respectively. For fiscal year ended March 31, 2004, the Company paid interest expense of $70,000 and in fiscal 2003 there was no interest expense paid. For fiscal years ended March 31, 2004 and 2003, the Company paid income taxes of $7,000 and $2,000 respectively. During fiscal 2004, the Company had the following three non-cash items: (i) the issuance of 4,901,817 shares related to the Gish merger, (ii) the issuance of 12,931 shares related to the investment in CorNova, Inc., and (iii) the issuance of 3,827 shares related to Dermaphylyx merger.

Revenue Recognition—Product, Research and Royalty Revenue

        The Company recognizes revenue in accordance with Staff Accounting Bulletin ("SAB") No. 101, "Revenue Recognition in Financial Statements." The Company recognizes revenue from product sales upon shipment, provided that a purchase order has been received or a contract has been executed, there are no uncertainties regarding customer acceptance, the sales price is fixed or determinable and collection is deemed probable. If uncertainties regarding customer acceptance exist, the Company recognizes revenue when those uncertainties are resolved and title has been transferred to the customer. Amounts collected or billed prior to satisfying the above revenue recognition criteria are recorded as deferred revenue. The Company also receives license and royalty fees for the use of its proprietary biomaterials. CardioTech recognizes these fees as revenue in accordance with the terms of the contracts. Contracted development fees from corporate partners are recognized upon completion of service or the attainment of technical benchmarks, as appropriate.

        Generally, the customer specifies the delivery method and is responsible for delivery costs. However, in certain situations, the customer specifies the delivery method and requests the Company pay the delivery costs and then invoice the delivery costs to the customer or include an estimate of the delivery costs in the price of the product. Delivery costs billed to customers by Gish for the year ended March 31, 2004 of $481,000 have been recorded as revenue.

        In November 2002 and May 2003, the Emerging Issues Task Force (EITF) reached a consensus on Issue No. 00-21, "Revenue Arrangements with Multiple Deliverables". EITF Issue No. 00-21 provides guidance and criteria for determining when a multiple deliverable arrangement contains more than one unit of accounting. The guidance also addresses methods of measuring and allocating arrangement



consideration to separate units of accounting. The guidance is effective for revenue arrangements entered into after June 15, 2003. Adoption of this statement did not have an effect on our consolidated financial position or results of operations.

Research and Development Expense

        Research and development expense consists primarily of salaries and is charged to expense as incurred.

Reporting Comprehensive Income (Loss)

        SFAS No. 130, "Reporting Comprehensive Income (Loss)," establishes standards for the reporting and display of comprehensive income and its components in the consolidated financial statements. Comprehensive income (loss) is the total of net income (loss) and all other non owner changes in equity including such items as unrealized holding gains (losses) on securities classified as available-for-sale, foreign currency translation adjustments and minimum pension liability adjustments. During the years ended March 31, 2004 and 2003, the Company's only item of other comprehensive income was its equity in unrecognized holding gains on securities classified as available for sale, recorded by CorNova, Inc.

Basic and Diluted Earnings Per Share

        The Company follows SFAS No. 128, "Earnings Per Share," where basic earnings per share is computed by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share are based upon the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period plus additional weighted average common equivalent shares outstanding during the period. At March 31, 2004 and March 31, 2003 exercisable options of 4,048,773 and 3,919,236 respectively, were excluded from the earnings per share calculation because they are considered antidilutive. At March 31, 2004 there are no warrants outstanding to purchase shares of Company's common stock.

        Common equivalent shares result from the assumed exercise of outstanding stock options and warrants, the proceeds of which are then assumed to have been used to repurchase outstanding common stock using the treasury stock method. Common equivalent shares also result from the assumed conversion of convertible debt using the "If Converted" method. In addition, the numerator is adjusted for any changes in income or loss that would result from the assumed conversion of potential shares.

Property and Equipment

        Property and equipment are stated at cost. Equipment is depreciated using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets, ranging from three to seven years, leasehold improvements are amortized using the straight-line method over the shorter of the estimated life of the asset or the remaining term of the lease, and the Company's building is depreciated using the straight-line method over 40 years. Expenditures for repairs and maintenance are charged to expense as incurred. The Company records construction in process in the appropriate asset category and commences depreciation upon completion and commencement of use of the asset.



Inventory

        Inventories are stated at the lower of cost (first-in, first-out) or net realizable value and consists of the following at March 31, 2004.

Raw materials $2,063,000
Work in progress  768,000
Finished goods  1,736,000
Total inventories $4,567,000

Income Taxes

        The Company follows SFAS No. 109, "Accounting for Income Taxes," where deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized based on temporary differences between the financial statements and tax basis of assets and liabilities using currently enacted tax rates. A valuation reserve against the net deferred assets is recorded, if, based upon the weight of available evidence, it is more likely than not that some or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized.

Intangible Assets and Impairment of Long-Lived Assets:

        The Company evaluates its long-lived assets, which include property and equipment and finite-lived intangible assets for impairment as events and circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable and at a minimum at each balance sheet date. The Company evaluates the reliability of its long-lived assets based on profitability and undiscounted cash flow expectations for the related asset or subsidiary. Property and equipment and amortizable intangibles are subject to SFAS No. 144, "Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets." Non-amortizable intangibles, such as goodwill, are subject to SFAS No. 142, "Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets."

        In accordance with the annual impairment test requirement of SFAS No. 142, the Company completed the first step of the traditional goodwill impairment test during the last quarter of fiscal 2004, based on the amount of goodwill as of December 31, 2003. The Company utilized a third party independent valuation to determine the fair value of each of its reporting units. Based on the results of the first step of the goodwill impairment test, the Company has determined that the fair value of each of reporting units exceeded the carrying amounts and, therefore, no goodwill impairment existed as of March 31, 2004. As a result, the second step of the goodwill impairment test is not required to be completed. As of March 31, 2004, management is not aware of any events that would cause them to conclude that any indicators of impairment exist. The Company will be required to continue to perform a goodwill impairment test on at least an annual basis and the next test is scheduled during the quarter ending March 31, 2005.

        As of March 31, 2004, CardioTech had unamortized goodwill of $1,638,000 and amortizable identifiable intangible assets of $968,000. Amortization expense related to identifiable intangible assets that will continue to be amortized in the future is approximately $192,000 for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2004.

        The estimated amortization expense related to other identifiable intangible assets for the next five years is as follows:

Year

  
2005 $192,000
2006  192,000
2007  118,000
2008  110,000
2009  110,000

Stock-Based Compensation

        The Company accounts for stock options granted to employees under the intrinsic value method in accordance with APB Opinion No. 25,Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees, and related interpretations rather than the alternative fair value accounting provided for under Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123,Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation ("SFAS 123"), which requires the use of option valuation models that were not developed for use in valuing employee stock options. The Company also has issued options to non-employees for services provided to the Company. Such options have been accounted for at fair value in accordance with the provisions of SFAS 123 and the Emerging Issues Task Force consensus in Issue No. 96-18,Accounting for Equity Instruments That are Issued to Other Than Employees for Acquiring, or in Conjunction With Selling Goods or Services. Such compensation expense for non-employees is recognized based on the vested portion of the compensation cost at the respective balance sheet dates, is included in non-cash compensation expense in the accompanying statement of operations.

        Had compensation cost for the Company's stock option grants to employees been determined consistent with SFAS 123, the Company's net loss and net loss per share would approximate the pro forma amounts below:

 
 Year Ended March 31
 
 
 2004
 2003
 
Net loss, as reported $(1,515,000)$(963,000)
Add: Stock-based employee compensation expense determined under fair value based method for all employee awards $(2,790,000)$(841,000)
  
 
 
Pro forma, net loss $(4,305,000)$(1,804,000)
Basic and diluted loss per share       
As reported $0.10 $0.11 
Pro forma $0.28 $0.20 

        The effects of applying SFAS123 in this pro forma disclosure are not indicative of future amounts. Additional awards in future years are anticipated.

        The Black-Scholes option valuation model was developed for use in estimating the fair value of traded options, which have no vesting restrictions and are fully transferable. In addition, option valuation models require the input of highly subjective assumptions including the expected stock price volatility. Because the Company's employee stock options have characteristics significantly different from those of traded options, and because changes in the subjective input assumptions can materially affect the fair value estimate, in management's opinion, the existing models do not necessarily provide a reliable single measure of the fair value of its employee stock options.

        The Executive Compensation Structure that The Compensation Committee approved provides an anti-dilution provision for Michael Szycher, the Company's president and CEO. This provision ensures that Michael Szycher's percentage of ownership (20.8%) will be the same after the Gish transaction as it was before. Upon completion of the Gish transaction, Michael Szycher was granted fully vested stock options for 1,017,330 shares at an exercise price of $0.92, the fair market value at the time of the merger.



        The fair value of each option granted during the fiscal years 2004 and 2003 is estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option pricing model with the following weighted average assumptions:

 
 2004
 2003
 
Dividend yield  None  None 
Expected volatility  80.00% 80.00%
Risk-free interest rate  3.38% - 4.40% 4.90%
Expected life  10 years  10 years 
Fair value of options granted $1.64 $0.92 

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

        The fair value of cash and cash equivalents, receivables and payables at March 31, 2004 approximate their carrying amount due to the short maturities of these items. Based upon borrowing rates currently available to the Company for loans with similar terms, the carrying value of its debt obligation approximates fair value. Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to a concentration of credit risk principally consist of cash and cash equivalents and trade receivables.

        All of the Company's cash and cash equivalents are maintained by major financial institutions.

        The Company performs ongoing credit evaluations of the financial condition of its customers and generally does not require collateral. The Company's subsidiary CDT requires new customers to pay a deposit prior to any work being performed, which is recorded as a current liability. Although the Company is directly affected by the overall financial condition of the healthcare industry, management does not believe significant credit risk exists at March 31, 2004. The Company maintains an allowance for doubtful accounts based on accounts past due according to contractual terms and historical collection experience. Actual losses when incurred are charged to the allowance. The Company's losses related to collection of trade accounts receivables have consistently been within management's expectations.

Reclassifications

        Certain amounts in the 2003 financial statements have been reclassifiedprepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 2 to conform to the 2004 presentation.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

        In January 2003, the FASB issued FIN 46, "Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities," to expand upon and strengthen existing accounting guidance that addresses when a company should include in its financial statements, the assets, liabilitiesCompany has recurring losses and activities of another entity. Until now, a company generally has included another entity in its consolidated financial statements only if it controlledan accumulated deficit. These factors raise substantial doubt about the entity through voting interests. FIN 46 changes that guidance by requiring a variable interest entity, as defined,Company’s ability to be consolidated by a company if that company is subject to a majority of the risk of loss from the variable interest entity's activities or is entitled to receive a majority of the entity's residual returns or both. FIN 46 also requires disclosure about variable interest entities that the company is not required to consolidate but in which it has a significant variable interest. The consolidation requirements of FIN 46 apply immediately to variable interest entities created after January 31, 2003 and to older entities in the first fiscal year or interim period beginning after June 15, 2003. Certain of the disclosure requirements apply in all financial statements issued after January 31, 2003, regardless of when the variable interest entity was established. The Company's adoption of FIN 46 did not have a material impact on its consolidated results of operations and financial position.



        On May 15, 2003, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 150,Accounting for Certain Financial Instruments with Characteristics of both Liabilities and Equity. This Statement establishes standards for classifying and measuring as liabilities certain financial instruments that embody obligations of the issuer and have characteristics of both liabilities and equity. Statement 150 represents a significant change in practice in the accounting for a number of financial instruments, including mandatorily redeemable equity instruments and certain equity derivatives that frequently are used in connection with share repurchase programs. The provisions of SFAS No. 150 are effective for public companies for all financial instruments created or modified after May 31, 2003, and to other instruments at the beginning of the first interim period beginning after June 15, 2003 (July 1, 2003 for calendar quarter companies). The adoption of SFAS No. 150 did not have a material impact on the Company's financial position or results of its operations.

        In November 2002 and May 2003, the Emerging Issues Task Force (EITF) reached a consensus on Issue No. 00-21, "Revenue Arrangements with Multiple Deliverables." EITF Issue No. 00-21 provides guidance and criteria for determining when a multiple deliverable arrangement contains more than one unit of accounting. The guidance also addresses methods of measuring and allocating arrangement consideration to separate units of accounting. The guidance is effective for revenue arrangements entered into after June 15, 2003. Adoption of this statement did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial position or results of operations.

B.    Related Party Transactions

        In December 1998, certain executive officers of the Company purchased, in the aggregate, 160,000 units as part of the Fechtor Detwiler 1998 private placement offering of the Company's common stock and warrants exercisable until December 15, 2003 to purchase the Company's common stock. A note in the aggregate principal amount of $200,000 issued by these officers to the Company funded the purchase of the units. The terms of the note provide for each executive to repay the note with interest at 4.25% per annum, within five years. The promissory notes, which are full recourse against the maker with respect to any amount due under the promissory notes, were secured by the common stock and warrants underlying the units. The principal balance outstanding of $150,000 was due on December 15, 2003. The Company received notification from a former officer and a current board member of their intention to exercise the warrants prior to December 15, 2003. Their payments for the exercise of the warrants were received after the December 15, 2003 expiration date, however the Company allowed for the exercise of those warrants. This effective modification of the warrants resulted in a non-cash compensation expense of $344,000. In applying generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP), the acceptance of the late payments on the warrant exercise represents a modification of the award and is treated as if a new award was granted on the date of modification. The intrinsic value of the awards on the date of the modification was recorded as non-cash compensation expense in the accompanying statement of operations.

        Effective June 18, 2003, the Company and one of the Company's consultants executed a full recourse promissory note for $26,250 related to the exercise of stock options bearing interest at 6% with payments due monthly as the shares exercised are sold. During the quarter ended September 30, 2003 the consultant paid this promissory note and all related interest in full.

        In July 1999, Dermaphylyx International, Inc., a related party, was formed by certain affiliates of CardioTech to develop advanced wound healing products. Dermaphylyx was merged into CardioTech International, Inc., pursuant to which it became a wholly owned subsidiary of CardioTech. Due to CardioTech's controlling financial interest, Dermaphylyx has been consolidated in the financial statements of CardioTech as of December 31, 2003. Prior to December 31, 2003, the operations and total assets of Dermaphylyx were not material to CardioTech. Since July 1999, the year Dermaphylyx was incorporated, all development expenses have been paid by CardioTech International, Inc.



        Upon the merger, the current stockholders of Dermaphylyx received 3,827 shares of common stock of CardioTech valued at the net book value of Dermaphylyx International, Inc., as of December 31, 2003, which was approximately $21,000.

C.    License Agreements

        Polymedica Corporation (NASDAQ:"PLMD") granted to CardioTech an exclusive, perpetual, worldwide, royalty-free license for CardioTech to use all of the necessary patent and other intellectual property owned by PLMD in the implantable devices and materials field (collectively, "PLMD Licensed Technology"). CardioTech, at its own expense, will file patents or other applications for the protection of all new inventions formulated, made, or conceived by CardioTech during the term of the license that related to PLMD Licensed Technology and all such inventions shall be exclusively licensed to PLMD for use by PLMD in fields other than the implantable devices and materials field.

Approximately $11,349,000 of the Federal net operating loss carry forwards is subject to annual limitationscontinue as a result of the changegoing concern. Management’s plans in control of Gish.

F.     Concentration of Credit Risk and Major Customers

        Financial instruments that potentially subject the Companyregard to significant concentrations of credit risk consist principally of cash and cash equivalents and trade accounts receivable. The Company maintains cash and cash equivalents with high credit, quality financial institutions. To manage accounts receivable credit risk, the Company continuously evaluates the creditworthiness of its customers and maintains allowances for potential credit losses. As of March 31, 2004 the Company believes it has no significant concentration of credit risks. One sales representative organization comprised 10% of the Company's net sales in fiscal 2004.

H.    Revolving Line of Credit

        When acquired, Gish had a $4,000,000 revolving line of credit, expiring in February 2005. Advances, based on eligible receivables, are secured by the operating assets of Gish and bear interest at prime (4.0% at March 31, 2004) plus 2%. The agreement also includes various restrictive loan



covenants, including a requirement for Gish to maintain a minimum net worth of $7,000,000 and to achieve positive net income on a rolling three-month basis.

        At March 31, 2004, Gish had borrowed $730,000 under the revolving line of credit and would have been entitled to borrow an additional $1,629,000.

        During the 2004 fiscal year, Gish had periods when it was in default of a covenant under its revolving line of credit, which requires Gish to achieve net income on a rolling three-month basis. Gish has received a waiver from its lender for the defaults and Gish is currently in compliance with its covenants.

I.     Stockholders' Equity

Common Stock Options and Warrants

        The Company issued 2,354,190 shares of common stock during year ended March 31, 2004, as a result of the exercise of options by employees and consultants, generating cash proceeds of $4,984,000 and issued 1,158,900 shares of common stock as a result of the exercise of warrants, generating cash proceeds of $1,770,000. The issuance of 40,000 shares of common stock to Implant resulted in net proceeds of $40,000. During the first quarter of fiscal 2004, the Company issued 4,901,817 shares of common stock as part of the Gish Biomedical merger transaction. During the forth quarter of fiscal 2004 the Company issued 3,827 shares of common stock as part of the Dermaphylyx transaction and 12,931 shares of common stock in exchange for an equity interest in CorNova, Inc.

        During the 2004 fiscal year, the Company recorded non-cash compensation expense of $92,000 related to options granted to non-employees.

        On January 26, 2004, the Board of Directors of CardioTech retained a consultant for a period of six months to continue to represent CardioTech to the investment community. Services to be performed are 1) create greater awareness in the brokerage community for CardioTech and, 2) To advise CardioTech on market conditions. Fees for the these services will include (a) all pre-approved out-of-pocket expenses, and (b) the periodic grant of stock options in tranches, up to a maximum aggregate grant of 1,000,000 shares. The options will have an exercise price equal to 75% of the closing price for the day prior to the date of each grant, and will expire three months from the grant date. This agreement may be renewed by the mutual consent of the parties hereto at such terms as shall be mutually agreed to by the parties. During the three-month period ended March 31, 2004, the Company granted options under this consulting agreement to purchase 150,000 shares. The consultant exercised the options during the three-month period ended March 31, 2004 and proceeds from the exercise of these options totaled $697,000. The Company has recorded an expense of $232,000 for the difference between the proceeds received and the fair market value of the options on the date of grant. During the fiscal year ended March 31, 2003, the Company wrote-off a note receivable from this consultant for $280,000 as it deemed it uncollectible at that time. The Company reasoned that this note receivable was over two years old therefore it was appropriate to record the expense during the fiscal year ended March 31, 2002. The note was originally issued by the Company for the exercise of 200,000 options to purchase shares of common stock. The Company has received payments totaling $237,000 during fiscal 2004, which have been recorded as other income in the accompanying consolidated statement of operations. The Company expects to recover the remaining $43,000 during fiscal 2005. During Fiscal 2004, this same consultant exercised options, granted (at the fair market value on the date of grant) and vested in fiscal years prior to fiscal 2004, for 1,000,000 shares at a total purchase price of $2,695,000.



Treasury Stock and other transactions

        During the second quarter of fiscal 2004, the Company issued 95,000 treasury shares to various employees and board members for their effort in the Gish transaction. The fair market value of these treasury shares was approximately $293,000, which was recorded as a non-cash compensation expense in the Consolidated Statement of Operations for 2004 fiscal year. Subsequently, two board members returned the stock to the Company. The 10,000 shares returned were recorded at the fair market value on December 9, 2003 by increasing additional paid in capital and treasury stock by $68,000. In January 2001, the Board of Directors of the Company authorized the purchase of up to 250,000 shares of the Company's common stock of which 114,255 shares have been purchased at March 31, 2004. Subsequent to March 31, 2004, the Board of Directors authorized the purchase of up to 500,000 of additional shares of the Company's common stock. The Company announced that purchases may be made from time-to-time in the open market, privately negotiated transactions, block transactions or otherwise, at times and price deemed appropriate by management.

        During the 2004 fiscal year, the Company received $150,000 in payments on officer notes, which had been included in subscription receivable from related parties. During the 2004 fiscal year, the Company recorded additional subscription receivable of $140,000 due to the issuance of stock to holders of options and warrants, prior to receiving payment of the related exercise price. Their payments for the exercise of the warrants were received after the December 15, 2003 expiration date, however the Company allowed for the exercise of those warrants. During the fourth quarter of fiscal 2004, these subscription receivables were paid in full.

J.     Acquisitions

        On April 7, 2003 the Company consummated a merger with Gish Biomedical, Inc. ("Gish"). Gish stockholders received 1.3422 shares of CardioTech common stock for each share of Gish common stock that they owned. Holders of options to purchase Gish common stock received options to purchase 1.3422 shares of CardioTech common stock for every share of Gish common stock that they could purchase under the Gish option, at an exercise price per share equal to the exercise price of the Gish option divided by 1.3422. 4,901,817 shares of CardioTech common stock were issued to the Gish stockholders, representing approximately 35% of the total shares outstanding as of March 31, 2003.

        Gish, a California corporation, was founded in 1976 to design, produce and market innovative specialty surgical devices. All of Gish's products are single use disposable products or have a disposable component. Gish's primary markets include products for use in cardiac surgery, myocardial management, infusion therapy, and post operative blood salvage. The Gish subsidiary will continue to conduct its business in the Rancho Santa Margarita facility. The Company believes that the merger will result in synergies from combining the respective operations.

        As of December 31, 2003, the total updated purchase price, net of cash acquired, was $8,772,000. The value of the common stock issued was determined based on the average market price of CardioTech's common stock over a 25 day period before the terms of the acquisition were agreed to and announced. The purchase price includes the fair market value of stock options issued based on a Black Scholes calculation. There are no contingent payments or commitments outstanding. No major restructuring of personnel or operations is contemplated. The former president of Gish Biomedical, Inc., resigned as president of Gish on April 30, 2003 and per his contract, CardioTech agreed to pay him $372,000 over the next nineteen months. This amount was recorded as a compensation charge in the first quarter of fiscal 2004, and included in severance payment in the accompanying statement of operations.

        The operating results of Gish have been included in the Company's statement of operations beginning April 1, 2003. The table below summarizes the fair values of the assets and liabilities assumed as of the date of acquisition.



        The Company originally recorded intangible assets of $906,000 and goodwill of $631,000. Goodwill was adjusted to $554,000 during the three months ended December 31, 2003. Analysis of Gish's allowance for doubtful accounts resulted in a reduction of $77,000 in the carrying value of the goodwill. The intangible assets are for customer intangibles of $644,000 and technology intangibles of $262,000. The customer intangibles that meet the criteria for recognition include customer lists, order or production backlog, customer contracts and the related customer relationships, and non contractual customer relationships. Customer intangible assets are assumed to have a seven year life. The technology intangible assets represent value attributable to propriety knowledge and processes that have been developed or purchased by a company and are recognized as actually providing, or having the potential to provide, significant competitive advantages or product differentiation. The technology intangible assets are assumed to have a fifteen year life.

        The following table summarizes the fair values of the assets and liabilities assumed on the date of acquisition. CardioTech has obtained third-party valuations of tangible and intangible assets and their effect is included in the table below.

K.    Enterprise and Related Geographic Information

        The Company acquired Gish Biomedical, Inc. effective April 7, 2003 and subsequent to that date, the Company has managed its business in fiscal 2004 on the basis of one reportable operating segment: Medical Device Manufacturing and Sales.

        Sales to foreign customers (primarily Europe and Asia) aggregated approximately $3,247,000 in 2004.

L.    Supplemental Disclosures for Stock-Based Compensation

        CardioTech's 1996 Employee, Director and Consultants Stock Option Plan (the "1996 Plan") was approved by CardioTech's Board of Directors and Stockholders in March 1996. A total of 7,000,000 shares have been reserved for issuance under the Plan. Under the terms of the Plan the exercise price of Incentive Stock Options issued under the Plan must be equal to the fair market value of the common stock at the date of grant. In the event that Non Qualified Options are granted under the Plan, the exercise price may be less than the fair market value of the common stock at the time of the grant (but not less than par value). In October 2003, the Company's stockholders approved the CardioTech International, Inc. 2003 Stock Option Plan (the "2003 Plan"), which authorizes the issuance of 3,000,000 shares of common stock with terms similar to the 1996 Plan. Substantially all of the stock options granted pursuant to the 1996 Plan provide for the acceleration of the vesting of the shares of Common Stock subject to such options in connection with certain changes in control of the Company. A similar provision is not included the 2003 Plan. Normally options granted expire ten years from the grant date.

        During fiscal 2003, the Company issued options to a consultant to purchase 35,000 shares of the Company's common stock, which were valued at fair market value using the Black Scholes option-pricing model. These options vest over a 24 month period. During fiscal 2004 and 2003, the Company expensed $56,000 and $16,000, respectively, related to the options.

N.    Other Agreements

        In March 2000, Implant Sciences Corporation (AMEX:IMX) entered into a $250,000 joint research agreement with the Company for the purpose of having the Company develop a proprietary porous polymer biocompatible coating technology as a platform for Implant's proprietary radioactive brachytherapy technology. During fiscal 2001, the Company was paid $50,000 by Implant pursuant to the aforementioned agreement. The joint research and development agreement provides for the Company to develop the polyurethane coating instrumental in the development of a polyurethane coated drug-eluting stent and for the Company to grant Implant a perpetual worldwide exclusive license to use, sublicense and otherwise deal in any technology developed by the Company in connection with the development of the stents. In consideration of the research, development and technology transfer, Implant paid the Company $150,000 in cash pursuant to a milestone schedule. In addition, Implant agreed to purchase 100,000 shares of CardioTech's common stock at a price of $1.00 per share upon the achievement of certain milestones specified in the agreement. On April 18, 2002, Implant purchased 60,000 shares of the Company's common stock at $1.00 per share. On November 26, 2003, Implant purchased 40,000 shares of the Company's common stock at $1.00 per share.

        The owner of the technology used in connection with the stent will be CardioTech; however, such technology will be transferred to Implant pursuant to a technology license. The developed technology represents a "platform" in the sense that the polyurethane developed by CardioTech and utilized to cover the stent will be the medium in which specific anti-restenosis drugs will be implanted and therefore becomes the key technological componentoutcome of this drug-eluting stent. The research and development agreement providesuncertainty.

Basis for 6 phases including the design of equipment necessary to produce prototypes of the stent, development of a series of prototypes, production of a limited number of prototypes and the delivery of prototypes to Implant. The material deadline is therefore the delivery of an operative prototype.Opinion

        On November 26, 2003, Implant accepted the Company's final report covering the joint research program on developing a drug-eluting stent. On November 26, 2003, Implant paid the Company $75,000; $35,000 was the final payment on the research program and $40,000 was payment for the purchase of 40,000 shares of the Company's common stock at the price of $1.00 per share. The



issuance of 40,000 shares of the Company's common stock to Implant resulted in a non-cash expense of approximately $210,000. The excess of the fair value of the total award on November 26, 2003 was recorded as non-cash research and development expense and included in the accompanying statement of operations. As of November 26, 2003, Implant has paid the Company the entire $250,000 due under this joint research agreement. Implant and the Company have no further obligations under this agreement.

        In April 2002, the Company concluded a technology transfer and license agreement with Credent Vascular Technologies, Ltd., of Wrexham, U.K. ("Credent"). Total consideration paid by Credent to CardioTech for the purchase of the transferred rights to ChronoFlex RC was $500,000. Under terms of the agreement, CardioTech irrevocably granted an exclusive, worldwide license of its intellectual property rights relating to ChronoFlex RC, enabling Credent to exclusively synthesize ChronoFlex RC biodurable polycarbonate-urethane. Credent will use ChronoFlex RC in the manufacture of its vascular access and peripheral vascular grafts and potentially in future development products. Credent has licensed back to CardioTech the right to use ChronoFlex RC for the manufacture and marketing of coronary artery bypass grafts.

P.     Benefit Plan and Employment Agreement

        The Company has several Salary Reduction Profit Sharing Plans ("the Plans"), established under Section 401(k) of the Internal Revenue Code, in which all employees are eligible to participate. Total Company contribution to the Plans was $27,000 in the 2004 fiscal year.

        The Company has entered into an employment agreement (the "Employment Agreement") with Dr. Michael Szycher, pursuant to which said individual serves as Chief Executive Officer of the Company. Pursuant to the terms of the Employment Agreement, Dr. Szycher is to receive an annual base salary of Three Hundred and Twenty Five Thousand ($325,000) dollars. Dr. Szycher's salary will be reviewed annually by the Board. Additionally, Dr. Szycher may also be entitled to receive an annual bonus payment in an amount, if any, to be determined by the Compensation and Stock Option Committee of the Board.

        The initial term of the Employment Agreement by and between the Company and Dr. Szycher is set to expire on December 31, 2004. After such time, the term of the Employment Agreement will be deemed to continue on a month-to-month basis if not expressly extended while Dr. Szycher remains employed by the Company. Dr. Szycher and CardioTech each have the right to terminate the Employment Agreement at any time, with or without cause (as defined in the Employment Agreement), upon thirty (30) days prior written notice. In the event that CardioTech terminates the



applicable Employment Agreement without cause, or Dr. Szycher terminates his employment for good reason following a change in control (as such terms are defined in the Employment Agreement) or CardioTech fails to renew the Employment Agreement within two (2) years following the occurrence of a change in control, Dr. Szycher will be entitled to receive severance equal to 2.99 times his annual base salary at termination. In such event, Dr. Szycher will be bound by a noncompete covenant for one (1) year following termination of his employment.

Q.    Investment in CorNova, Inc.

        An Exchange and Venture Agreement (the "Agreement") was entered into on March 5, 2004 by and among CardioTech, Implant, and CorNova, Inc. ("CorNova"). CorNova is a start-up company, incorporated as a Delaware corporation on October 12, 2003. CorNova's focus will be the development of a next-generation drug-eluting stent. On March 5, 2004, CardioTech and Implant each agreed to transfer to CorNova 12,931 shares and 10,344 shares of their common stock (Collectively, the "Contributory Shares"), respectively, in exchange for 1,500,000 shares, each, of CorNova's common stock. The number of Contributory Shares issued reflects the fair market value of CardioTech's and Implant's common stock as of November 18, 2003, for an aggregate value of $75,000 each. This also resulted in CardioTech and Implant each receiving a thirty percent (30%) ownership interest in CorNova.

        Upon the event of CorNova securing additional financing in the minimum amount of $1,000,000 and up to a maximum amount of $3,000,000 (the "Series A Financing"), CardioTech and Implant will each issue additional shares of their common stock (the "Investment Shares"), where the number of Investment Shares to be issued will be equal to twenty-five percent (25%), of the gross proceeds of the Series A Financing divided by the respective five (5) day average of the closing prices of the common stock of CardioTech and Implant as published in the Wall Street Journal on the dates immediately preceding each relevant closing of the Series A Financing. In addition to the issuance of its common stock upon the completion of a Series A Financing, CardioTech will also grant to CorNova an exclusive license for the technology consisting of Chronoflex DES polymer, or any poly (carbonate) urethane containing derivative thereof, for use on drug-eluting stents.

        Both the Contributory Shares and the Investment Shares (collectively, the "Securities") are restricted securities within the meaning of Rule 144 of the Securities and Exchange Commission under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"), and none of the Securities may be sold except pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Securities Act or under the securities laws of any state, or in a transaction exempt from registration under the Securities Act.

        During fiscal 2004, the Company used the equity method of accounting and recorded equity in the net loss of CorNova of $1,000, equity in comprehensive income of CorNova of $7,000 (related to unrealized holding gains on securities classified as available-for-sale), and recorded a charge of $32,000, reducing its original $75,000 investment to $50,000 at March 31, 2004.

CARDIOTECH INTERNATIONAL, INC.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Nature of Business

        CardioTech International, Inc. (including its subsidiaries, collectively "CardioTech" or the "Company") is using its proprietary technology to develop and manufacture small bore vascular grafts, or synthetic blood vessels, made of ChronoFlex, a family of polyurethanes, that has been demonstrated to be biocompatible and non-toxic. The Company is headquartered in Woburn, Massachusetts, where it also operates its manufacturing and laboratory facilities.

A.    Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Basis of Presentation

        CardioTech was incorporated in March 1993. CardioTech and CardioTech International, Ltd. ("CTL") were spun off of PolyMedica Industries, Inc. ("PMI") in June 1996. CardioTech Acquisition Corp, a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, was incorporated in April 1999. CTL was sold in November 2000.

        The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated.

Uses of Estimates

        The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results may differ from those estimates and such differences may be material to the financial statements.

Uncertainties

        The Company is subject to risks common to companies in the medical device industry, including, but not limited to, development of new technology innovations by competitors of the Company, dependence on key personnel, protection of proprietary technology, and compliance with FDA government regulations.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

        Cash and cash equivalents include cash on hand, demand deposits and short-term investments with original maturities of three months or less. Cash equivalents represent a deposit in a money market account.

Accounts Receivable—Other

        Accounts Receivable—Other principally consists of revenue receivable from research and development work completed on National Institute of Health Small Business Innovative Research Grants and royalty income receivable.

Revenue Recognition—Product, Research and Royalty Revenue

        The Company recognizes revenue in accordance with Staff Accounting Bulletin ("SAB") No. 101, "Revenue Recognition in Financial Statements." Product revenue is recognized in the period when persuasive evidence of an arrangement with a customer exists, the product is shipped, title has been transferred to the customer, the price is fixed and determinable, and collection is considered probable. Product revenue is generated in connection with the sale of ChronoFlex and other proprietary



biomaterials for use in medical devices. Contracted development fees from corporate partners are recognized upon completion of service or the attainment of technical benchmarks, as appropriate. These amounts are recorded as research contract revenues.

        The Company also receives royalties for the use of its proprietary biomaterials. CardioTech recognizes these royalties as revenue in accordance with the terms of the contracts.

        During the years ended March 31, 2003 and 2002, the Company earned revenue from a Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) grant awarded by the National Institute of Health to support the Company's research and development programs. This Research Grant revenue is recognized over the term of the grant on a percentage of completion basis determined by estimates of costs incurred as compared to total budgeted costs.

Shipping and Handling Costs

        Shipping and handling costs are recorded in cost of sales as incurred.

Research and Development Expense

        Research and development expense consists primarily of salaries and is charged to expense as incurred.

Reporting Comprehensive Income (Loss)

        SFAS No. 130, "Reporting Comprehensive Income (Loss)," establishes standards for the reporting and display of comprehensive income and its components in the consolidated financial statements. Comprehensive income (loss) is the total of net income (loss) and all other non owner changes in equity including such items as unrealized holding gains (losses) on securities classified as available-for-sale, foreign currency translation adjustments and minimum pension liability adjustments. During the years ended March 31, 2003 and 2002, the Company's only item of comprehensive income was its net loss.

Basic and Diluted Earnings Per Share

        The Company follows SFAS No. 128, "Earnings Per Share," where basic earnings per share is computed by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share are based upon the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period plus additional weighted average common equivalent shares outstanding during the period.

        Common equivalent shares result from the assumed exercise of outstanding stock options and warrants, the proceeds of which are then assumed to have been used to repurchase outstanding common stock using the treasury stock method. Common equivalent shares also result from the assumed conversion of convertible debt using the "If Converted" method. In addition, the numerator is adjusted for any changes in income or loss that would result from the assumed conversion of potential shares.

Property and Equipment

        Property and equipment are stated at cost. Equipment is depreciated using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets, ranging from three to seven years, and leasehold improvements are amortized using the straight-line method over the shorter of the estimated life of the asset or the remaining term of the lease. Expenditures for repairs and maintenance are charged to expense as incurred.



Inventory

        Inventory is stated at the lower of cost (determined on a first-in, first-out basis) or market, and is made up of Raw Materials, Work in Process, and Finished Goods of $99,000, $60,000, and $21,000, respectively.

Income Taxes

        The Company follows SFAS No. 109, "Accounting for Income Taxes," where deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized based on temporary differences between the financial statements and tax basis of assets and liabilities using currently enacted tax rates. A valuation reserve against the net deferred assets is recorded, if, based upon the weight of available evidence, it is more likely than not that some or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized.

Intangible Assets and Impairment of Long-Lived Assets:

        The Company evaluates its long-lived assets, which include property and leasehold improvements and finite-lived intangible assets for impairment as events and circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable and at a minimum at each balance sheet date. The Company evaluates the realizability of its long-lived assets based on profitability and undiscounted cash flow expectations for the related asset or subsidiary. Property and leasehold improvements and amortizable intangibles are subject to SFAS No. 144 "Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets." Non-amortizable intangibles, such as goodwill, are subject to SFAS No. 142 "Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets." Management believes that as of the balance sheet date presented none of the Company's long-lived assets were impaired.

        In June 2001, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued SFAS No. 142, "Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets." This statement superceded Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 17 ("APB 17"), "Intangible Assets," and applies to goodwill and intangible assets acquired after June 30, 2001, as well as goodwill and intangible assets previously acquired. SFAS No. 142 requires that goodwill and intangible assets with indefinite lives no longer be amortized but instead be tested for impairment at least annually, or when events indicate that there may be impairment. In connection with the SFAS No. 142 transitional goodwill impairment evaluation, CardioTech is required to perform an assessment of whether there is an indication that goodwill is impaired as of the date of adoption. SFAS No. 142 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2001. CardioTech adopted SFAS No. 142 in the fiscal quarter ended June 30, 2002 The Company completed the first step of the traditional goodwill impairment test during the first quarter of fiscal 2003, based on the amount of goodwill as of the beginning of fiscal year 2003, as required by SFAS No. 142. The Company utilized a third party independent valuation to determine the fair value of each of the reporting units based on a discounted cash flow income approach. Based on the results of the first step of the transitional goodwill impairment test, the Company has determined that the fair value of each of reporting units exceeded the carrying amounts and, therefore, no goodwill impairment existed as of April 1, 2002. As a result, the second step of the transitional goodwill impairment test is not required to be completed. As of March 31, 2003, we are not aware of any events that would cause us to conclude the impairment indicators exist. The Company will be required to continue to perform a goodwill impairment test on an annual basis and the next test is scheduled during the quarter ending September 30, 2003.

        In October 2001, the FASB issued SFAS No. 144, "Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets." SFAS No. 144 addresses the financial accounting and reporting for the impairment or disposal of long-lived assets. SFAS No. 144 supersedes SFAS No. 121, "Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to be Disposed Of," but retains SFAS No. 121's fundamental provisions for (a) recognition/measurement of impairment of long-lived assets to be held and used and (b) measurement of long-lived assets to be disposed of by sales. The Company



adopted SFAS No. 144 in fiscal 2003. SFAS No. 144 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2001, and interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company believes that no indication of impairment exists as of March 31, 2003.

        As of March 31, 2003, CardioTech had unamortized goodwill of $1,085,000 and unamortized identifiable intangible assets of $254,000. Amortization expense related to other identifiable intangible assets that will continue to be amortized in the future is approximately $82,000 for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2003. Under this statement goodwill, as well as certain other intangible assets, determined to have an indefinite life, will no longer be amortized, instead these assets will be reviewed for impairment on a periodic basis.

Stock Based Compensation

        The Company accounts for stock options granted to employees in accordance with APB Opinion No. 25,Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees, and related interpretations rather than the alternative fair value accounting provided for under Statement of Financial Standards No. 123,Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation ("SFAS 123"), which requires the use of option valuation models that were not developed for use in valuing employee stock options. The Company also has issued options to non-employees for services provided to the Company. Such options have been accounted for at fair value in accordance with the provisions of SFAS 123 and the Emerging Issues Task Force consensus in Issue No. 96-18,Accounting for Equity Instruments That are Issued to Other Than Employees for Acquiring, or in Conjunction With Selling Goods or Services. Such compensation expense is recognized based on the vested portion of the compensation cost at the respective balance sheet dates.



        Had compensation cost for the Company's stock option grants been determined consistent with SFAS 123, the Company's net loss and net loss per share would approximate the pro forma amounts below:

 
 Year ended March 31,
 
 
 2003
 2002
 
Net loss as reported $(963,000)$(1,971,000)
 Add: Stock-based employee compensation expense determined under fair value based method for all employee awards  (841,000) (950,000)
  
 
 
 Proforma net loss $(1,804,000)$(2,921,000)

Basic and diluted loss per share:

 

 

 

 

 

 

 
 As reported $(0.11)$(0.23)
 Pro forma $(0.20)$(0.34)

        The effects of applying SFAS 123 in this pro forma disclosure are not indicative of future amounts. SFAS 123 does not apply to awards made prior to 1995. Additional awards in future years are anticipated.

        The fair value of each option granted during the fiscal years 2003 and 2002 is estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option pricing model with the following weighted average assumptions:

 
 2002
 2003
Dividend yield  None  None
Expected volatility  80.0%  80.0%
   3.94%   
Risk-free interest rate  5.21%  4.9%
Expected life  10 years  10 years
Fair value of options granted $1.34 $0.92

        The Black-Scholes option valuation model was developed for use in estimating the fair value of traded options which have no vesting restrictions and are fully transferable. In addition, option valuation models require the input of highly subjective assumptions including the expected stock price volatility. Because the Company's employee stock options have characteristics significantly different from those of traded options, and because changes in the subjective input assumptions can materially affect the fair value estimate, in management's opinion, the existing models do not necessarily provide a reliable single measure of the fair value of its employee stock options.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

        The Company's financial instruments consist of cash and cash equivalents, trade receivables, accounts payable and accrued expenses. The carrying value of these financial instruments approximates fair value due to their short term to maturity. Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to a concentration of credit risk principally consist of cash and cash equivalents and trade receivables.

        All of the Company's cash equivalents are maintained by major financial institutions.

        The Company performs ongoing credit evaluations of the financial condition of its customers and generally does not require collateral. The Company's subsidiary CDT requires new customers to pay a deposit prior to any work being performed, which is recorded as a current liability. Although the



Company is directly affected by the overall financial condition of the healthcare industry, management does not believe significant credit risk exists at March 31, 2003. The Company maintains an allowance for doubtful accounts based on accounts past due according to contractual terms and historical collection experience. Actual losses when incurred are charged to the allowance. The Company's losses related to collection of trade accounts receivables have consistently been within management's expectations.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

        In November 2002, the FASB issued FIN 45, "Guarantor's Accounting and Disclosure Requirements for Guarantees, Including Indirect Guarantees of Indebtedness of Others." FIN 45 requires that upon issuance of a guarantee, the guarantor must recognize a liability for the fair value of the obligation it assumes under the guarantee. The disclosure provisions of FIN 45 are effective for financial statements of interim or annual periods ending after December 15, 2002. The provisions for initial recognition and measurement are effective on a prospective basis for guarantees that are issued or modified after December 31, 2002, irrespective of a guarantor's year-end. The Company is currently evaluating the requirements and impact, if any, of FIN 45 on its consolidated results of operations and financial position.

        In January 2003, the FASB issued FIN 46, "Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities," to expand upon and strengthen existing accounting guidance that addresses when a company should include in its financial statements the assets, liabilities and activities of another entity. Until now, a company generally has included another entity in its consolidated financial statements only if it controlled the entity through voting interests. FIN 46 changes that guidance by requiring a variable interest entity, as defined, to be consolidated by a company if that company is subject to a majority of the risk of loss from the variable interest entity's activities or is entitled to receive a majority of the entity's residual returns or both. FIN 46 also requires disclosure about variable interest entities that the company is not required to consolidate but in which it has a significant variable interest. The consolidation requirements of FIN 46 apply immediately to variable interest entities created after January 31, 2003 and to older entities in the first fiscal year or interim period beginning after June 15, 2003. Certain of the disclosure requirements apply in all financial statements issued after January 31, 2003, regardless of when the variable interest entity was established. The Company is currently evaluating the requirements and impact, if any, of FIN 46 on its consolidated results of operations and financial position.

        In June 2002, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued SFAS No. 146,Accounting for Costs Associated with Exit or Disposal Activities, which addresses accounting for restructuring and similar costs. SFAS No. 146 supersedes previous accounting guidance, principally Emerging Issues Task Force Issue ("EITF") No. 94-3. SFAS No. 146 requires that the liability for costs associated with an exit or disposal activity be recognized when the liability is incurred. Under EITF No. 94-3, a liability for an exit cost was recognized at the date of the commitment to an exit plan. SFAS No. 146 also establishes that the liability should initially be measured and recorded at fair value. We will adopt the provisions of SFAS No. 146 for any restructuring activities initiated after December 31, 2002. Adoption of the provisions of SFAS No. 146 may affect the timing of recognizing future restructuring costs as well as the amounts recognized.

        In December 2002, the FASB issued SFAS No. 148,Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation—Transition Disclosure, An Amendment of FASB Statement No. 123. SFAS No. 148 provides alternative methods of transition for a voluntary change to the fair value based method of accounting for stock-based employee compensation. In addition, SFAS No. 148 amends the disclosure requirements of SFAS No. 123 to require more prominent and more frequent disclosure in financial statements regarding the effects of stock-based compensation. The provisions of SFAS No. 148 are effective for fiscal and interim periods ending after December 15, 2002. The Company will continue to apply APB No. 25 as the



method used to account for stock-based employee compensation arrangements, where applicable, but has adopted the disclosure requirements of SFAS No. 148.

        On May 15, 2003, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 150,Accounting for Certain Financial Instruments with Characteristics of both Liabilities and Equity. This Statement establishes standards for classifying and measuring as liabilities certain financial instruments that embody obligations of the issuer and have characteristics of both liabilities and equity. Statement 150 represents a significant change in practice in the accounting for a number of financial instruments, including mandatorily redeemable equity instruments and certain equity derivatives that frequently are used in connection with share repurchase programs. The provisions of SFAS No. 150 are effective for public companies for all financial instruments created or modified after May 31, 2003, and to other instruments at the beginning of the first interim period beginning after June 15, 2003 (July 1, 2003 for calendar quarter companies. The adoption of SFAS No. 150 is not expected to have a material impact on the Company's financial position or results of its operations.

B.    Related Party Transactions

        In December 1998, certain executive officers of the Company purchased, in the aggregate, 160,000 units during a private placement offering of the Company's common stock. A note issued by each officer to the Company funded the purchase of the units valued at $200,000. The terms of the note provide for each executive is to repay the Company with interest at 4.25% per annum, within five years. The promissory notes, which are full recourse against the maker personally with respect to any amount due under the promissory notes, are secured by the common stock and warrants underlying the units. The principal balance due is included as Subscriptions receivable from related parties in Stockholders' Equity of the consolidated balance sheet. As of March 31, 2003, the principal balance outstanding was $150,000.

        SFAS No. 57, "Related Party Disclosures," specifies the nature of information that should be disclosed in financial statements regarding related party transactions. Implant Sciences Corporation ("Implant"), a public company, is a related party with the Company by virtue of its significant business relationships.

        In March 2000, Implant entered into a $250,000 joint research agreement with the Company for the purpose of having the Company develop a proprietary porous polymer biocompatible coating technology as a platform for Implant's proprietary radioactive brachytherapy technology. During fiscal 2001, the Company was paid $50,000 by Implant pursuant to the aforementioned agreement. The joint research and development agreement provides for the Company to develop the polyurethane coating instrumental in the development of a polyurethane coated drug-eluting stent and for the Company to grant Implant a perpetual worldwide exclusive license to use, sublicense and otherwise deal in any technology developed by the Company in connection with the development of the stents. In consideration of the research, development and technology transfer, Implant will pay the Company $150,000 in cash pursuant to a milestone schedule. In addition, Implant will purchase 100,000 shares of CardioTech's common stock at a price of $1.00 per share upon the achievement of certain milestones related to the research and development. As of March 31, 2002, Implant was obligated to purchase 60,000 shares of the Company's common stock at $1.00 per share. Accordingly, the Company recorded a subscription receivable of $60,000 in stockholders' equity at March 31, 2002. On April 6, 2003, Implant paid CardioTech $60,000 and received a stock certificate for 60,000 shares of CardioTech common stock. The owner of the technology used in connection with the stent is CardioTech, however such technology will be transferred to Implant pursuant to a technology license. The developed technology represents a "platform" in the sense that the polyurethane developed by CardioTech and utilized to cover the stent will be the medium in which specific anti-restenosis drugs will be implanted and therefore becomes the key technological component of this drug-eluting stent. The research and development agreement provides for 6 phases including the design of equipment necessary to produce



prototypes of the stent, development of a series of prototypes, production of a limited number of prototypes and the delivery of prototypes to Implant. The material deadline is therefore the delivery of an operative prototype. Implant is obligated to pay the entire $250,000 if all milestone conditions are met. Through March 31, 2003 Implant has made cash payments of $175,000 to CardioTech.

        Certain of the Company's directors hold positions as directors of Implant. The chief executive officer and chairman of the board of directors is also a director of Implant. The chief executive officer and chairman of the board of directors of Implant is also one of the Company's directors. On October 10, 2001, the Company provided Implant a $500,000 line of credit facility. The line of Credit provides for funding at the discretion of Implant, is subject to a security agreement providing a second lien on substantially all of Implant's assets, and provides for a $15,000 commitment fee which was paid in February 2002. The Company and Implant mutually agreed to terminate the Line of Credit on March 29, 2002. There were no borrowings on this line of credit from inception through its termination on March 29, 2002.

        The Company advanced $10,000 to an outside business consultant on April 26, 2002. On June 25, 2003 the advance was converted to a demand note bearing interest at 1.31%.

C.    License Agreements

        Polymedica Corporation (NASDAQ:"PLMD") has granted to CardioTech an exclusive, perpetual, worldwide, royalty-free license for CardioTech to use all of the necessary patent and other intellectual property owned by PLMD in the implantable devices and materials field (collectively, "PLMD Licensed Technology"). CardioTech, at its own expense, will file patents or other applications for the protection of all new inventions formulated, made, or conceived by CardioTech during the term of the license that related to PLMD Licensed Technology and all such inventions shall be exclusively licensed to PLMD for use by PLMD in fields other than the implantable devices and materials field.

Each warrant expires on December 15, 2003 and is exercisable at $1.50 per share. In connection with this offering, the Company's executive officers purchased 160,000 units in exchange for promissory notes having a principal balance of $200,000. The Company received net proceeds of $1,782,000, net of placement agent fees of $128,000, promissory notes of $200,000, and related offerings costs of $223,000.

The warrants are exercisable at any time and from time to time after the grant date and prior to December 15, 2003.


        The principal balance of the promissory notes issued by the Company's executives is payable on December 15, 2003 and classified as Subscription receivable from related parties in Stockholders' Equity in the consolidated balance sheet. The promissory notes bear interest at 4.25% per annum and are payable annually in arrears. The promissory notes, which are with full recourse against the maker personally with respect to any amount due under this note, are secured by the common stock and warrants underlying the Units. Interest in the amount of $28,000 was accrued as of March 31, 2003. As of March 31, 2003, the principal balance outstanding is $150,000, net of provision for the uncollectible note of $280,000.

K.    Acquisitions

        On May 4, 2001, the Company completed the acquisition of all the shares of CMED Catheter and Disposables Technology, Inc., a Minnesota corporation ("CDT"), from Colorado Medtech, Inc., a Colorado corporation ("Medtech"), pursuant to an Acquisition Agreement dated as of April 30, 2001, by and among CardioTech, CDT and Medtech.

        CDT is an original equipment manufacturer; supplier of specialized disposable medical devices to medical device companies from concept to finished packaged, sterile product; and uses its experience in the design, development, prototyping and manufacturing to provide turnkey contract services. CDT's facility is ISO 9001 and EN 46001 certified and includes a "Class 10,000" clean room.

        The consideration paid by CardioTech to Medtech was $1,300,000 in a cash payment, $130,000 of which was placed into escrow pursuant to the terms of the agreement. The cash consideration used in the purchase came from CardioTech's working capital. In connection with the transaction, CardioTech acquired net assets of CDT having a book value of approximately $375,000. Additionally, the Company incurred transaction costs of approximately $154,000. The acquisition was accounted for in accordance with the purchase method of accounting. The excess of purchase price over the fair value of the net assets acquired was approximately $1,144,000 and was recorded as goodwill and other intangible assets, which is being amortized on a straight-line basis over five years.

        Operations of CDT are included in CardioTech's operations from the date of the acquisition. The unaudited pro forma results of operations of the Company and acquired business for the years ended March 31, 2002 assuming the acquisition had occurred on April 1, 2000 are as follows:

 
 2002
 
Revenues $3,420,000 
  
 
Net loss $(1,973,000)
  
 
Loss per share—basic $(0.22)
Loss per share—diluted $(0.22)

        On April 7, 2003 the Company consumated a merger with Gish Biomedical, Inc. ("Gish"). Gish stockholders received 1.3422 shares of CardioTech common stock for each share of Gish common stock that they owned. Holders of options to purchase Gish common stock will receive options to purchase 1.3422 shares of CardioTech common stock for every share of Gish common stock that they could purchase under the Gish option, at an exercise price per share equal to the exercise price of the Gish option divided by 1.3422. 4,901,817 shares of CardioTech common stock was issued to the Gish stockholders, representing approximately 35% of the total shares outstanding as of March 31, 2003.

        Gish, a California corporation, was founded in 1976 to design, produce and market innovative specialty surgical devices. All of Gish's products are single use disposable products or have a disposable component. Gish's primary markets include products for use in cardiac surgery, myocardial management, infusion therapy, and post operative blood salvage. The Gish subsidiary will continue to conduct its business in the Rancho Santa Margarita facility.

        Total purchase price, net of cash acquired, was $8,596,000. The value of the common stock issued was determined based on the average market price of CardioTech's common stock over a 25 day period before and after the terms of the acquisition were agreed to and announced. The purchase price includes the fair market value of stock options issued based on a Black Scholes calculation using the same assumptions disclosed in Note L,Stock Compensation. There are no contingent payments or commitments outstanding. No major restructuring of personnel or operations are contemplated. The



former president of Gish Biomedical, Inc., resigned as president of Gish on April 30, 2003 and per his contract, CardioTech agreed to pay him $360,000 over the next nineteen months. This amount will be recorded as a compensation charge in the first quarter of fiscal 2004.

        The following table summarizes the estimated fair values of the assets and liabilities assumed of the date of acquisition. CardioTech is in the process of obtaining third-party valuations of tangible and intangible assets, thus, the allocation of the purchase price is subject to completion.

        The following unaudited pro forma combined condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared to give effect to the merger of CardioTech and Gish using the purchase method of accounting and the assumptions and adjustments described in the accompanying notes to unaudited pro forma combined condensed consolidated financial statements.

        The fiscal years of CardioTech and Gish end on March 31 and June 30, respectively. The CardioTech and the Gish balance sheets as of March 31, 2003 have been combined as if the merger had occurred on March 31, 2003. For purposes of the pro forma information, the CardioTech and the Gish statements of operations for the year ended March 31, 2003 and the twelve months ended March 31, 2003, respectively have been combined giving effect to the merger as if it had occurred on April 1, 2002 (the fiscal year ended March 31, 2002). The unaudited pro forma combined condensed consolidated financial statements are presented for illustrative purposes only and are not necessarily indicative of the financial position or results of operations that would have actually been reported had the merger occurred on April 1, 2002 for the year ended March 31, 2003, nor is it necessarily indicative of the future financial position or results of operations. As mentioned above, CardioTech is in the process of obtaining a third party valuation of certain tangible and intangible assets, thus, the allocations of the purchase price is subject to completion. Because the unaudited pro forma combined condensed consolidated financial statements are based upon preliminary estimates, the pro forma adjustments may differ materially based upon the final allocation.

M.   Supplemental Disclosures for Stock-Based Compensation

        CardioTech's 1996 Employee, Director and Consultants Stock Option Plan (the "Plan") was approved by CardioTech's Board of Directors and Stockholders in March 1996. A total of 7,000,000



shares have been reserved for issuance under the Plan. Under the terms of the Plan the exercise price of Incentive Stock Options issued under the Plan must be equal to the fair market value of the common stock at the date of grant. In the event that Non Qualified Options are granted under the Plan, the exercise price may be less than the fair market value of the common stock at the time of the grant (but not less than par value). During fiscal 2003, the Company issued options to a consultant to purchase 35,000 shares of the Company's common stock, which were valued using the Black Scholes option pricing model. These options vest over a 24 month period. The fair value of the options granted of $30,100 is being expensed to consulting expense, included in selling, general and administrative expense in the Consolidated Statements of Operations, over the vesting period. During fiscal 2002, the Company issued options to consultants to purchase 725,000 shares of the Company's common stock, which were valued using the Black Scholes option pricing model. These options were vested immediately upon grant. The fair value of the options granted of $729,000 was recorded as consulting expense and is included in selling, general and administrative expense in the Consolidated Statements of Operations for the year ended March 31, 2002.

        Activity under the Plans for the years ended March 31, 2003 and 2002 is as follows:

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

MARCH 31, 2004

(Unaudited)
2023

1.     Description

NOTE 1 - ORGANIZATION AND DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS

Nordicus Partners Corporation (the “Company”) was founded in 1993 as a subsidiary of Business

        CardioTech International,PolyMedica Corporation. On January 31, 2020, we completed the sale of substantially all of our assets (the “Asset Sale”) for a total purchase price of $7,250,000 pursuant to an Asset Purchase Agreement entered into between us and Mitsubishi Chemical Performance Polymers, Inc. (including its subsidiaries, collectively "CardioTech" or, a Delaware corporation (“MCPP”). Prior to the "Company") is using its proprietary technology to developClosing Date, we developed and manufacture small bore vascular grafts, or synthetic blood vessels, mademanufactured advanced polymer materials which provided critical characteristics in the design and development of ChronoFlex, a family of polyurethanes, that has been demonstrated to be biocompatiblemedical devices. Our biomaterials were marketed and non -toxic.

        Additionally, the Company is an original equipment manufacturer; supplier of specialized disposable medical devicessold to medical device companies from conceptmanufacturers who used our advanced polymers in devices designed for treating a broad range of anatomical sites and disease states.

As a result of the Asset Sale, we ceased operating as a developer, manufacturer, marketer and seller of advanced polymers. Subsequent to finished packaged, sterile product; and uses its experiencethe Closing Date, we became engaged in efforts to identify either an (i) operating company to acquire or merge with through an equity-based exchange transaction or (ii) investor interested in purchasing a majority interest in our common stock, whereby either transaction would likely result in a change in control. On October 12, 2021, we entered into a Stock Purchase Agreement (the “SPA”) with Reddington Partners LLC, a California limited liability company (“Reddington”) providing for the design, development, prototyping and manufacturing to provide turnkey contract services. Devices designed, developed and manufactured for customers include sensing, balloon, and drug delivery catheters; disposable endoscopes; and in-vitro diagnostic and surgical disposables.

        The Company also ispurchase of a manufacturertotal of certain single use medical devices and medical devices that have5,114,475 of our common stock, on a disposal component. These products are marketed primarily to hospitals through direct sales representatives and distributors domestically and internationally through distributors. Primary markets include products for use in cardiac surgery, myocardial management, infusion therapy, and post operative blood salvage.

        In July 1999, Dermaphylyx International, ("Dermaphylyx"), a related party, was formed by certain affiliatespost-split basis, or approximately 90% of CardioTech to develop advanced wound healing products. Dermaphylyx was merged into CardioTech International, Inc. effective March 12, 2004 and is now a wholly owned subsidiary of CardioTech. Due to CardioTech's controlling financial interest, Dermaphylyx has been consolidated in the financial statements of Cardiotech as of December 31, 2003. Prior to December 31, 2003, the operation andour total assets of Dermaphylyx were not material to CardioTech. Upon the merger, the current shareholders of Dermaphylyx received 3,827 shares of common stock outstanding for total cash consideration of CardioTech valued at$400,000. Reddington purchased in two tranches on October 12, 2021 and March 15, 2022.

On March 3, 2020, we filed a Certificate of Amendment to the net book valveCompany’s Certificate of Dermaphylyx International, Inc.,Incorporation, which amendment was approximately $21,000.unanimously approved by our Board of Directors, to change our name AdvanSource Biomaterials Corporation to EKIMAS Corporation.

        The Company is headquartered in Wilmington, Massachusetts, where it operates its biomaterials manufacturing and laboratory facilities and its wound dressing operations, operates contract research and development services and outsourced manufacturing from its facility in Plymouth, Minnesota, and manufactures specialized disposable medical devices at a facility located in Rancho Santa Margarita, California.

        Effective March 5, 2004,Pursuant to the SPA, the Company exchanged 12,931 shares of its commoneffectuated a 1-for 50 reverse stock for 1,500,000 shares of common stock of CorNova, Inc. which currently represents an ownership interest of 30%. CorNova is a development stage enterprise, formed to develop a drug eluding stent based upon the Company's Chronoflex technology.

        The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated. The Company's investment in CorNova is accounted for using the equity method of accounting.

2.     Interim Financial Statements

        The condensed consolidated financial information for the three and nine months ending December 31, 2004 is unaudited but includes all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring



adjustments) that the Company considers necessary for a fair presentation of the financial position at such date and of the operating results and cash flows for this period. The results of operations for the three and nine months ending December 31, 2004 are not necessarily indicative of results that may be expected for the entire year. The information contained in this Form 10-QSB should be read in conjunction with the Company's audited financial statements, included in its Form 10-KSB as of and for the year endingsplit on March 31, 2004 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

3.     Revenue Recognition

        The Company recognizes revenue in accordance with Staff Accounting Bulletin ("SAB") No. 104, "Revenue Recognition in Financial Statements." The Company recognizes revenue from product sales upon shipment, provided that a purchase order has been received or a contract has been executed, there are no uncertainties regarding customer acceptance, the sales price is fixed or determinable and collection is deemed probable. If uncertainties regarding customer acceptance exist, the Company recognizes revenue when those uncertainties are resolved and title has been transferred to the customer. Amounts collected or billed prior to satisfying the above revenue recognition criteria are recorded as deferred revenue. The Company also receives license and royalty fees for the use of its proprietary biomaterials. The Company recognizes these fees as revenue in accordance with the terms of the contracts. Contracted development fees from corporate partners are recognized upon completion of service or the attainment of technical benchmarks, as appropriate.

        Generally, the customer specifies the delivery method and is responsible for delivery costs. However, in certain situations, the customer specifies the delivery method and requests the Company pay the delivery costs and then invoice the delivery costs to the customer or include an estimate of the delivery costs in the price of the product. Delivery costs billed to customers for the three months ended December 31, 2004 and 2003 totaled $105,000 and $133,000, respectively, and for the nine months ended December 31, 2004 and 2003 totaled $320,000 and $368,000, respectively, and have been recorded as revenue.

        Certain amounts in the fiscal 2004 financial statements have been reclassified to conform to the fiscal 2005 presentation.

4.     Stock-Based Compensation

        The Company accounts for stock options granted to employees under the intrinsic value method in accordance with APB Opinion No. 25,Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees, and related interpretations rather than the alternative fair value accounting provided for under Statement of Financial Standards No. 123,Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation ("SFAS 123"), which requires the use of option valuation models that were not developed for use in valuing employee stock options. The Company also has issued options to non-employees for services provided to the Company. Such options have been accounted for at fair value in accordance with the provisions of SFAS 123 and the Emerging Issues Task Force consensus in Issue No. 96-18,Accounting for Equity Instruments That are Issued to Other Than Employees for Acquiring, or in Conjunction With Selling Goods or Services. Such compensation expense is recognized based on the vested portion of the compensation cost at the respective balance sheet dates.



        Had compensation cost for the Company's stock option grants been determined consistent with SFAS 123, the Company's net loss and net loss per share would approximate the pro forma amounts below:

 
 Three months ended
December 31,

 Nine months ended
December 31,

 
 
 2004
 2003
 2004
 2003
 
Net loss, as reported $(652,000)$(557,000)$(968,000)$(717,000)
 Add: Stock-based employee compensation expense included in reported net income, net of related tax effects    344,000    637,000 
 Deduct: Stock-based employee compensation expense determined under fair value based method for all employee awards, net of related tax effects  (914,000) (585,000) (4,285,000) (2,121,000)
  
 
 
 
 
Pro forma, net loss $(1,566,000)$(798,000)$(5,253,000)$(2,201,000)
  
 
 
 
 
Basic and diluted income (loss) per share             
 As reported $(0.04)$(0.03)$(0.05)$(0.05)
 Pro forma $(0.09)$(0.05)$(0.30)$(0.15)

        The effects of applying SFAS 123 in this pro forma disclosure are based on the following assumptions:

 
 2004
 2003
 
Dividend yield  None  None 
Expected volatility  80.00% 80.00%
Risk-free interest rate  3.87 - 4.72% 4.47 - 5.21%
Expected life  10 years  10 years 
Fair value of options granted $3.79 $1.01 

        The significant difference between "As reported" and "Pro forma" results for the nine months ended December 31, 2004 relates primarily to the effect of the acceleration of the vesting of stock options on July 8, 2004, as described in Note 19 to these condensed consolidated financial statements.

        The Black-Scholes option valuation model was developed for use in estimating the fair value of traded options, which have no vesting restrictions and are fully transferable. In addition, option valuation models require the input of highly subjective assumptions including the expected stock price volatility. Because the Company's employee stock options have characteristics significantly different from those of traded options, and because changes in the subjective input assumptions can materially affect the fair value estimate, in management's opinion, the existing models do not necessarily provide a reliable single measure of the fair value of its employee stock options.

        The FASB issued Statement 123R, "Share-Based Payment," which requires all companies to measure compensation cost for all share-based payments, including employee stock options, at fair value, effective for public companies (except small business issuer as defined in SEC Regulation S-B) for interim or annual periods beginning after December 15, 2005. Retroactive application of the requirements of SFAS No. 123 ("SFAS 123"), "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation," not Statement 123R, to the beginning of the fiscal year that includes the effective date would be permitted, but not required and early adoption of Statement 123R is encouraged. The FASB has concluded that companies could adopt the new standard in one of two ways. First, under the modified prospective transition method, a company would recognize share-based employee compensation cost from the



beginning of the fiscal period in which the recognition provisions are first applied as if the fair-value-based accounting method had been used to account for all employee awards granted, modified, or settled after the effective date and to any awards that were not fully vested as of the effective date. Measurement and attribution of compensation cost for awards that are nonvested as of the effective date of the proposed Statement would be based on the same estimate of the grant-date fair value and the same attribution method used previously under SFAS 123 (either for recognition or pro forma purposes). Second, under the modified retrospective transition method, a company would recognize employee compensation cost for periods presented prior to the adoption of Statement 123R in accordance with the original provisions of SFAS 123; that is, an entity would recognize employee compensation cost in the amounts reported in the pro forma disclosures provided in accordance with SFAS 123. A company would not be permitted to make any changes to those amounts upon adoption of the proposed Statement unless those changes represent a correction of an error (and are disclosed accordingly). For periods after the date of adoption of Statement 123R, the modified prospective transition method described above would be applied. The Company is in the process of determining the impact of this statement on our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.

5.     Comprehensive Income

        SFAS No. 130, "Reporting Comprehensive Income (Loss)," establishes standards for the reporting and display of comprehensive income and its components in the consolidated financial statements. Comprehensive income (loss) is the total of net income (loss) and all other non-owner changes in equity including such items as unrealized holding gains (losses) on securities classified as available-for-sale, foreign currency translation adjustments and minimum pension liability adjustments. During the three and nine months ended December 31, 2004, the Company's only item of other comprehensive loss was its equity in unrecognized holding losses on securities classified as available for sale recorded by CorNova, Inc. of $15,000 and $37,000, respectively. During the three and nine months ended December 31, 2003, the Company had no items of comprehensive income or loss.

6.     Related Party Transactions

        The Company has an investment in CorNova, Inc., of which Dr. Eric Ryan is President and a major shareholder. The Company, on July 15, 2004, entered into a one-year consulting agreement with Dr. Ryan, which provides for a range of payments, in either cash or common stock, for the achievement of certain milestones related to the manufacturing, commencement of European clinical trials and the receipt of a restricted CE mark of the Company's CardioPass synthetic coronary artery bypass graft. Total potential payments range from $125,000 to $216,000 based on the timing of the milestone achievements. As part of the agreement, Dr. Ryan has the opportunity to earn up to an additional $56,000 based on the achievement of certain milestones related to other products of the Company. At December 31, 2004, several of the contract milestones had been achieved and, accordingly, costs totaling $73,000 related to performance under this contract has been recognized as a research and development expense as of December 31, 2004.

        In December 1998, certain executive officers of the Company purchased, in the aggregate, 160,000 units as part of the Fechtor Detwiler 1998 private placement offering of the Company's common stock and warrants exercisable until December 15, 2003 to purchase the Company's common stock. A note in the aggregate principal amount of $200,000 issued by these officers to the Company funded the purchase of the units. The terms of the note provide for each executive to repay the note with interest at 4.25% annum, within five years. The promissory notes, which are full recourse against the maker with respect to any amount due under the promissory notes, were secured by the common stock and warrants underlying the units. The principal balance outstanding of $150,000 was due on December 15, 2003. The Company received notification from a former officer and a current board member of their



intention to exercise the warrants prior to December 15, 2003. Their payments for the exercise of the warrants were received after the December 15, 2003 expiration date, however the Company allowed for the exercise of those warrants. This effective modification of the warrants resulted in a non-cash compensation expense of $344,000. In applying generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP), the acceptance of the late payments on the warrant exercise represents a modification of the award and is treated as if a new award was granted on the date of modification. The intrinsic value of the awards on the date of the modification was recorded as non-cash compensation expense in the accompanying statement of operations.

9.     Earnings Per Share

        The Company computes basic and diluted earnings/loss per share in accordance with Statement of Financial Accountings Standards No. 128, "Earnings Per Share." Basic earnings/loss per share is based upon the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the periods.

        Diluted earnings per share are based upon the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the periods plus additional weighted average common equivalent shares issued during the periods.

13.   Revolving Line of Credit

        In December 2000, the Company entered into a $2,000,000 three-year revolving line of credit agreement. In February 2002, the revolving line of credit agreement was amended to extend the



agreement for an additional year and increase the line to $4,000,000. Advances, based on eligible receivables, are secured by the operating assets of the Company and bear interest at prime (5.25% at December 31, 2004) plus 2%. The agreement also includes various restrictive loan covenants, including a requirement for the Company to maintain a minimum net worth of $7,000,000 and to achieve positive incomeAccordingly, on a rolling three-month basis.

        At December 31, 2004,post-split basis, the Company had no outstanding balance due under the revolving line of credit and the revolving line of credit agreement was terminated by the Companyshares purchased in January 2005.

14.   Stockholders' Equity

        During the nine months ended December 31, 2004, the Company issued 77,349 shares of common stock as a result of the exercise of options by employees, generating cash proceeds of $101,000. During the nine months ended December 31, 2004, the Company purchased 22,800 shares of common stock at a cost of $83,000.

        Effective July 1, 2004, companies incorporated in Massachusetts became subject to the Massachusetts Business Corporation Act, which provides that shares that are reacquired by a company become authorized but unissued shares. As a result, the concept of "treasury shares" is eliminated and shares reaquired by a company become "authorized but unissued" shares. Accordingly, the Company has reclassified treasury stock at December 31, 2004 and March 31, 2004 as a reduction of common stock at the par value amount of $.01 share and the excess of the cost of the treasury stock over the par value has been recorded as a reduction of additional paid-in capital. At December 31, 2004 and March 31, 2004, 67,877 shares, and 45,077 shares, respectively, of treasury stock with a cost of $263,000 and $182,000 respectively, have been so reclassified.

        The Company issued 1,892,305 shares of common stock during the nine months ended December 31, 2003, as a result of the exercise of options by employees and consultants, generating cash proceeds of $3,058,000 and the exercise of warrants for 1,021,400 shares of common stock, generating cash proceeds of $1,544,000. As part of the Gish Biomedical merger transaction, the Company issued 4,901,817 shares of common stock. In Fiscal 2003 the Company issued 95,000 treasury shares to various employees and board members for their effort in the Gish transaction. Subsequently, two board members gave the stock back to the Company. The fair market value of these treasury shares was approximately $293,000, which was recorded as a non-cash compensation expense in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. The fair market value was based upon the closing stock price of the Company's common stock at the date of grant. The Company also recorded non-cash compensation expense of $92,000 related to options granted to non-employees. The compensation expense was determined by estimating the fair market value of the options granted by using the Black-Scholes option valuation model with the following weighted average assumptions; dividends yield—none; expected volatility—80%; risk-free interest rate—2.84%—4.27%; expected life—10 years. During the nine months ended December 31, 2003 the Company purchased 30,384 shares of the Company's common stock at a cost of $96,000.

15.   Private Placement

        In connection with the transaction, the Company issued warrants to the investors to purchase 569,793First Closing resulted in Reddington owning 422,725 shares of our common stock atstock. As set forth in the SPA, Reddington then purchased from us on March 15, 2022, an exercise price of $3.00 per share, which are exercisable until December 22, 2009. In addition, the investors have rights to purchase up to 1,139,586 shares of common stock at a price of $2.40 per share, which are exercisable for a period commencing on



December 22, 2004 and ending on the earlier of (i) December 22, 2005 or (ii) ninety (90) business days after the effective date of a registration statement, which was filed January 19, 2005. We also issued warrants to the placement agent to purchase 113,959additional 4,691,750 shares of our common stock, at an exercise price of $2.40 per share and 56,979on a post-split basis (the “Second Closing”). After the issuance thereof Reddington owned 5,114,475 shares of our common stock, at an exercise priceor approximately 90% of $3.00 per share, which are exercisable until December 22, 2009. Should the investors exercise the additional investment rights (described above), the placement agent will receive an additional warrant up to 113,959our total shares of common stock at an exercise price of $2.40 per share. If all warrantsoutstanding.

On February 23, 2023, we and additional investment rightsNordicus Partners A/S, a Danish stock corporation, consummated the transactions contemplated by that certain Contribution Agreement (the “Contribution Agreement”) by and among us, Nordicus, GK Partners, Henrik Rouf and Life Science Power House ApS (“LSPH”).

        The fair market value of the warrants and additional investment rights granted was estimatedcollectively referred to be $1,606,000 calculation and $768,000 on the date of grant respectively. These amounts are disclosed for information purposes onlyherein as the actual amount to be recorded by the Company upon the exercise of the warrants or additional investment rights will be the net cash proceeds of the exercise.

        The fair market value of the warrants“Sellers”, and additional investment rights granted were determined by estimating the fair market value by using the Black-Scholes option valuation method with the following weighted average assumptions: dividends yield—none; expected volatility—80%; risk free interest rate 3.60%—5yr. rate in Dec "04; expected life—5 years; fair value of options granted—$1.60 ($2.40 warrants and additional investment rights)—$2.03 ($3.00 warrants).

16.   Income Taxes

        The Company uses the liability method of accounting for income taxes as set forth in Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 109, Accounting for Income Taxes. Under this method, deferred taxes are determined based on the difference between the financial statement and tax bases of assets and liabilities using enacted tax rates in effect in the years in which the differences are expected to reverse. Deferred tax assets are recognized and measured based on the likelihood of realization of the related tax benefit in the future.

        For the three and nine months ended December 31, 2004 and 2003, the Company provided for no income taxes, other than state income taxes, as the Company has significant net loss carryforwards.

17.   Investment in CorNova, Inc.

        An Exchange and Venture Agreement (the "Agreement") were entered into on March 5, 2004 by and between CardioTech, Implant Sciences Corporation and CorNova, Inc. ("CorNova"). CorNova is a start-up company, incorporatedeach individually as a Delaware corporation on October 12, 2003. CorNova's focus will be“Seller”). Pursuant to the developmentContribution Agreement the Sellers contributed, transferred, assigned and conveyed to us all right, title and interest in and to one hundred percent (100%) of a next generation drug-eluting stent. On March 5, 2004, CardioTechour issued and Implant each agreed to transfer to CorNova 12,931 shares and 10,344 shares of their commonoutstanding capital stock (collectively, the "Contributory Shares"), respectively, in exchange for 1,500,000 shares, each, of CorNova's common stock. The number of Contributory Shares issued reflects the fair market value of CardioTech's and Implant's common Stock as of November 18, 2003, for an aggregate value of $75,000 each. This also resulted in CardioTech and Implant each receiving a thirty percent (30%) ownership interest in CorNova.

        Upon the event of CorNova securing additional financing in the minimum amount of $1,000,000 and up to a maximum amount of $3,000,000 (the "Series A Financing"), CardioTech and Implant will each issue additional 2,500,000 shares of theirour common Stock (the "Investment Shares"), where the number of Investment Shares to be issued will be equal to twenty-five percent (25%),stock, par value $0.001 per share. As a result of the gross proceeds of the Series A Financing divided by the respective five (5) day average of the closing prices of the common stock of CardioTechBusiness Combination, Nordicus Partners A/S became our 100% wholly owned subsidiary.

On May 17, 2023, we changed our name to Nordicus Partners Corporation and Implant as published in the Wall Street Journal on the dates immediately preceding each relevant closing of the Series A Financing. In additionour ticker symbol to the issuance of its common stock upon the completion of a Series A Financing, CardioTech will also grant to CorNova an exclusive



license for the technology consisting of Chronoflex DES Polymer, and or poly (carbonate) urethane containing derivative thereof, for use on drug-eluting stents. (See note 21).NORD.

        Both the Contributory Shares and the Investments Shares (collectively, the "Securities") are restricted securities within the meaning of Rule 144 of the Securities and Exchange Commission under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the, "Securities Act"), and none of the Securities may be sold except pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Securities Act or under the securities laws of any state, or in a transaction exempt from registration under the Securities Act.

        During the nine months ended December 31, 2004, the Company used the equity method of accounting and recorded equity in the net loss of CorNova of $37,000, reducing its investment to ($10,000) at December 31, 2004, and equity in comprehensive loss of CorNova of $22,000 (related to unrealized holding losses on securities classified as available for sale.)

18.   Authorization of Company Buy-Back of Common Stock

        In June 2004, the Board of Directors authorized the purchase of up to 500,000 additional shares of the Company's common stock. In June 2001, the Board of Directors authorized the purchase of up to 250,000 shares of the Company's common stock of which 156,055 shares have been purchased at December 31, 2004, of which 22,800 were purchased during the nine months ended December 31, 2004. The Company announced that purchases may be made from time-to-time in the open market, privately negotiated transactions, block transactions or otherwise, at times and prices deemed appropriate by management.

19.   Acceleration of Vesting of Stock Options

        On July 8, 2004, the Board of Directors of the Company accelerated the vesting of all outstanding options, such that at July 8, 2004 all outstanding options are fully vested. The Company accelerated the vesting of the options to avoid compensation expense associated with the adoption of SFAS 123R. This action resulted in the immediate vesting of options to purchase 922,503 shares of the Company's common stock. No compensation cost is currently recognizable because of the acceleration, however, should an optionee realize a benefit from the acceleration that they would not have otherwise been eligible for, then the Company would recognize a compensation expense. The compensation expense would be determined by the difference between the closing stock price at July 8, 2004 of $3.92 and the option exercise price, multiplied by the number of shares on which the optionee obtained a benefit from the accelerated vesting. At July 8, 2004 the total potential compensation cost was $149,000, and no compensation cost has been incurred for the nine months ended December 31, 2004.

20.   Other Non-Cash Charges for Fiscal 2004

        On November 26, 2003, the Company concluded a joint research project with Implant Sciences Corporation (Implant) which awarded Implant the right to purchase 40,000 shares of the Company's common stock at $1 a share. This award resulted in a non-cash expense of $210,000 in the three and nine months ended December 31, 2003 to record the excess of the fair value of the award. The fair value of the award was based on the closing market price of the Company's common stock at the date of grant.

21.   Subsequent Event—CorNova, Inc. Series A Financing

        Prior to December 31, 2004, CorNova, Inc. obtained deposits of $3,000,000 for its Series A Financing (described in Note 17 in the December 31, 2004 10-QSB). CorNova, Inc. completed its Series A Financing transaction on February 4, 2005. At that time, the Company became obligated to contribute shares of its common stock equal to $750,000. The number of shares was determined to be



308,642 and was based on the five (5) day average closing price immediately preceding the closing date. The Company has no additional obligation to contribute assets or additional common stock nor to assume any liabilities or to fund any losses that CorNova may incur.

22.   Pending Acquisition

        On November 19, 2004, the Company entered into a definitive agreement (the "Asset Purchase Agreement") to acquire substantially all of the assets and assume certain liabilities of CarTika Medical, Inc., a privately owned medical device contract manufacturer headquartered in Plymouth, Minnesota ("CarTika"). As part of the transaction, the Company will issue consideration to the stockholders of CarTika consisting of shares of the Company's common stock, equal in value to $1,662,000, with the number of shares based upon the fair market value of the common stock at the date of closing ("Stock Consideration"), and $4,985,000 in cash ("Cash Consideration"). The transaction is expected to be completed between March 31, 2005, and June 30, 2005. However, the transaction closing is subject to a variety of closing conditions, including the successful filing and SEC approval of a registration statement covering the Stock Consideration shares. Accordingly, while the Company believes the closing conditions will be successfully completed, no assurance can be given that the conditions necessary to close the transaction will be completed or be completed in the previously estimated time period. At December 31, 2004, the Company had paid $150,000 of the Cash Consideration and incurred other acquisition related expenses of $28,000. These amounts are included in other non-current assets at December 31, 2004.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1)    NOTE 2 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Nature

Basis of businessPresentation

        CarTika Medical, Inc. (the Company) is an ISO certified contract manufacturing Company that specializes in thermoforming and injection molding for various applications in the medical device industry and sells to customers throughout the United States, Europe, and Southeast Asia.

The majority of sales are to customers in the Minneapolis/St. Paul metropolitan area.

Use of estimates

        The preparation ofCompany’s financial statements have been prepared in conformityaccordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”).

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions. These estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements. In addition, they affectstatements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from thesethose estimates. The Company’s accounting estimates include the collectability of receivables, useful lives of long-lived assets and assumptions.

Accounts receivablerecoverability of those assets, impairment in fair value of goodwill.

 

F-8

Concentration of Credit Risk

We maintain our cash in bank deposit accounts, the balances of which at times may exceed federally insured limits. We continually monitor our banking relationships and consequently have not experienced any losses in our accounts. We believe we are not exposed to any significant credit risk on cash.

Cash Equivalents

The Company extends unsecured creditconsiders all highly liquid investments with a maturity of three months or less when purchased to be cash equivalents. There were no cash equivalents for the years ended March 31, 2023 or 2022.

Principles of Consolidation

The accompanying consolidated financial statements for the year ended March 31, 2023, includes the accounts of the Company and its customerswholly owned subsidiary, Nordicus Partners A/S. All significant intercompany transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

Translation Adjustment

The accounts of the Company’s subsidiary are maintained in Danish krone. According to the Codification, all assets and liabilities were translated at the current exchange rate at respective balance sheets dates, members’ capital are translated at the historical rates and income statement items are translated at the average exchange rate for the period. The resulting translation adjustments are reported under other comprehensive income in accordance with the Comprehensive Income Topic of the Codification (ASC 220), as a component of Stockholders’ equity. Transaction gains and losses are reflected in the income statement.

Comprehensive Income

The Company uses SFAS 130 “Reporting Comprehensive Income” (ASC Topic 220). Comprehensive income is comprised of net income and all changes to the statements of Stockholders’ equity, except changes in paid-in capital and distributions to shareholders. Comprehensive income is included in net loss and foreign currency translation adjustments.

Stock-based Compensation

In June 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-07, Compensation – Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Improvements to Nonemployee Share-Based Payment Accounting. ASU 2018-07 allows companies to account for nonemployee awards in the same manner as employee awards. The guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, and interim periods within those annual periods.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The Company follows paragraph 825-10-50-10 of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification for disclosures about fair value of its financial instruments and paragraph 820-10-35-37 of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification (“Paragraph 820-10-35-37”) to measure the fair value of its financial instruments. Paragraph 820-10-35-37 establishes a framework for measuring fair value in accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (U.S. GAAP) and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. To increase consistency and comparability in fair value measurements and related disclosures, Paragraph 820-10-35-37 establishes a fair value hierarchy which prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value into three (3) broad levels. The fair value hierarchy gives the highest priority to quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs. The three (3) levels of fair value hierarchy defined by Paragraph 820-10-35-37 are described below:

Level 1:Quoted market prices available in active markets for identical assets or liabilities as of the reporting date.
Level 2:Pricing inputs other than quoted prices in active markets included in Level 1, which are either directly or indirectly observable as of the reporting date.
Level 3:Pricing inputs that are generally unobservable inputs and not corroborated by market data.

F-9

The carrying amount of the Company’s financial assets and liabilities, such as cash, prepaid expenses and accrued expenses approximate their fair value because of the short maturity of those instruments. The Company’s notes payable approximate the fair value of such instruments based upon management’s best estimate of interest rates that would be available to the Company for similar financial arrangements on March 31, 2023 and 2022.

Net Income (Loss) Per Common Share

Net income (loss) per common share is computed pursuant to section 260-10-45 of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification. Basic net income (loss) per common share is computed by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. Diluted net income (loss) per common share is computed by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted average number of shares of common stock and potentially outstanding shares of common stock during the period. The weighted average number of common shares outstanding and potentially outstanding common shares assumes that the Company incorporated as of the beginning of the first period presented. As of March 31, 2023, there are 6,635,000 potentially dilutive shares of common stock from warrants. There were no potentially dilutive shares for the year ended March 31, 2022. Diluted shares are not presented when the effect of the computations are anti-dilutive due to the losses incurred. Accordingly, there is no difference in the amounts presented for basic and diluted loss per share.

Income Taxes

Income taxes are provided for the tax effects of the transactions reported in the financial statements and consist of taxes currently due plus deferred taxes related primarily to tax net operating loss carryforwards. The deferred tax assets and liabilities represent the future tax return consequences of these differences, which will either be taxable or deductible when assets and liabilities are recovered or settled, as well as operating loss 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. A valuation allowance is established against deferred tax assets when in the judgment of management, it is more likely than not that such deferred tax assets will not become available. Because the judgment about the level of future taxable income is dependent to a great extent on matters that may, at least in part, be beyond the Company’s control, it is at least reasonably possible that management’s judgment about the need for a valuation allowance for deferred taxes could change in the near term.

Tax benefits are recognized only for tax positions that are more likely than not to be sustained upon examination by tax authorities. The amount recognized is measured as the largest amount of benefit that is greater than 50 percent likely to be realized upon settlement. A liability for “unrecognized tax benefits” is recorded for any tax benefits claimed in the Company’s tax returns that do not meet these recognition and measurement standards. As of March 31, 2023, and 2022, no liability for unrecognized tax benefits was required to be reported.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

The Company has implemented all new applicable accounting pronouncements that are in effect. These pronouncements did not have any material impact on the financial statements unless otherwise disclosed, and the Company does not believe that there are any other new accounting pronouncements that have been issued that might have a material impact on its financial position or results of operations.

NOTE 3 - GOING CONCERN

The Company’s financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which assumes the Company will be able to realize its assets and discharge its liabilities in the normal course of business. Invoices are generally due within 30 days. Accounts aged over 30 days are considered past due.business for the foreseeable future. The Company has not yet generated any revenue and has incurred losses since inception resulting in an accumulated deficit of $42,197,663 as of March 31, 2023. As a result, we expect our funds will not be sufficient to meet our needs for more than twelve months from the date of issuance of these financial statements. Accordingly, management believes there is substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.

The ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon the Company’s recent acquisition, its generating profitable operations in the future and/or obtaining the necessary financing to meet its obligations and repay its liabilities arising from normal business operations when they come due. Management intends to finance operating costs over the next twelve months with existing cash on hand, loans from third parties and/or private placement of common stock. The financial statements of the Company do not include any adjustments that may result from the outcome of these uncertainties.

NOTE 7 - COMMON STOCK TRANSACTIONS

On October 12, 2021, we entered into a Stock Purchase Agreement (the “SPA”) with Reddington Partners LLC, a California limited liability company (“Reddington”) providing for the purchase of a total of 5,114,475 of our common stock, on a post-split basis, for total cash consideration of $400,000. Reddington purchased in two tranches on October 12, 2021 and March 15, 2022. Pursuant to the SPA, each of four stockholders (the “Principal Stockholders”) entered into a Voting Agreement with Reddington (the “Voting Agreements”).

The sale of the first tranche of 21,136,250 shares of our common stock, on a pre-split basis, was consummated on October 12, 2021 (the “First Closing”). At the First Closing, the Principal Stockholders entered into the Voting Agreements with Reddington, covering an aggregate of 4,434,240 shares of our common stock, on a pre-split basis. As a result of these transactions, Reddington obtained ownership or voting power over a total of 25,570,490 shares of our common stock, on a pre-split basis, constituting approximately 51.8% of our total outstanding shares. Accordingly, Reddington became the majority stockholder of the Company.

Pursuant to the SPA, the Company effectuated a 1-for 50 reverse stock split on March 11, 2022 (the “Reverse Split”). Accordingly, on a post-split basis, the shares purchased in connection with the First Closing resulted in Reddington owning 422,725 shares of our common stock. As set forth in the SPA, Reddington then purchased from us on March 15, 2022, an additional 4,691,750 shares of our common stock, on a post-split basis (the “Second Closing”). After the issuance thereof Reddington owned 5,114,475 shares of our common stock, or approximately 90% of our total shares of common stock outstanding. As of the Second Closing, the Voting Agreements terminated.

The cumulative purchase price for both tranches of shares of our common stock was $400,000. At the First Closing, Reddington paid the Company $200,000, $100,000 of which was required to be applied to the payment of our accrued and unpaid liabilities as of the First Closing date, and $100,000 of which was for working capital purposes. The remaining $200,000 was deposited to an escrow account with an independent escrow agent (the “Escrow Account”). At the Second Closing, if the $100,000 designated to pay for accrued and unpaid liabilities was not sufficient, funds from the Escrow Account were to be used to pay the remainder of such liabilities. At the Second Closing, Reddington paid us an additional $200,000. Pursuant to the SPA, any funds remaining after the payment of the accrued and unpaid liabilities, if any, and all funds in the Escrow Account, were to be combined and used solely for a special one-time cash distribution (the “Special Distribution”) by us, through a paying agent reasonably satisfactory to Reddington, to only our stockholders of record as of October 11, 2021, net of any costs associated with making the Special Distribution. Reddington and its Affiliates expressly waived any right to participate in the Special Distribution.

Our Board of Directors declared a cash distribution to stockholders pursuant to the terms and conditions of the SPA. The cash distribution of approximately $141,000, or $0.25 per share, was paid on September 22, 2022, to stockholders of record as of March 15, 2022.

NOTE 9 – INCOME TAX

Deferred taxes are provided on a liability method whereby deferred tax assets are recognized for deductible temporary differences and operating loss and tax credit carry forwards and deferred tax liabilities are recognized for taxable temporary differences. Temporary differences are the differences between the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and their tax bases. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance when, in the opinion of management, it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. The Company has evaluated Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 118 regarding the impact of the decreased tax rates of the Tax Cuts & Jobs Act. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are adjusted for all known uncollectible accounts. No allowance for doubtful accountsthe effects of changes in tax laws and rates on the date of enactment.

At March 31, 2023, the Company had net operating loss carry forwards of approximately $35,057,000 that may be offset against future taxable income. NOLs from tax years up to 2017 can be carried forward twenty years. Under the CARES Act, the Company can carry forward NOLs indefinitely for NOLs generated in a tax year beginning after 2017, that remain after they are carried back to tax years in the five-year carryback period. No tax benefit has been reported in the March 31, 2023, financial statements since the potential tax benefit is offset by a valuation allowance of the same amount.

Due to the change in ownership provisions of the Tax Reform Act of 1986, net operating loss carry forwards for Federal Income tax reporting purposes depreciationare subject to annual limitations. Should a change in ownership occur, net operating loss carry forwards may be limited as to use in future years. With few exceptions, the Company is calculated using applicable accelerated methods.no longer subject to U.S. federal, state and local income tax examinations by tax authorities for years before 2016.

NORDICUS PARTNERS CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARY

NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

JUNE 30, 2023

NOTE 1 - ORGANIZATION AND DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS

Nordicus Partners Corporation (the “Company” “Nordicus”) was founded in 1993 as a subsidiary of PolyMedica Corporation. On January 31, 2020, we completed the sale of substantially all of our assets (the “Asset Sale”) for a total purchase price of $7,250,000 pursuant to an Asset Purchase Agreement entered into between us and handling costs chargedMitsubishi Chemical Performance Polymers, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“MCPP”). Prior to customersthe Closing Date, we developed and manufactured advanced polymer materials which provided critical characteristics in the design and development of medical devices. Our biomaterials were marketed and sold to medical device manufacturers who used our advanced polymers in devices designed for treating a broad range of anatomical sites and disease states.

As a result of the Asset Sale, we ceased operating as a developer, manufacturer, marketer and seller of advanced polymers. Subsequent to the Closing Date, we became engaged in efforts to identify either an (i) operating company to acquire or merge with through an equity-based exchange transaction or (ii) investor interested in purchasing a majority interest in our common stock, whereby either transaction would likely result in a change in control. On October 12, 2021, we entered into a Stock Purchase Agreement (the “SPA”) with Reddington Partners LLC, a California limited liability company (“Reddington”) providing for the purchase of a total of 5,114,475 of our common stock, on a post-split basis, or approximately 90% of our total shares of common stock outstanding for total cash consideration of $400,000. Reddington purchased in two tranches on October 12, 2021 and March 15, 2022.

On March 3, 2020, we filed a Certificate of Amendment to the Company’s Certificate of Incorporation, which amendment was unanimously approved by our Board of Directors, to change our name AdvanSource Biomaterials Corporation to EKIMAS Corporation.

Pursuant to the SPA, the Company effectuated a 1-for 50 reverse stock split on March 11, 2022 (the “Reverse Split”). Accordingly, on a post-split basis, the shares purchased in connection with the First Closing resulted in Reddington owning 422,725 shares of our common stock. As set forth in the SPA, Reddington then purchased from us on March 15, 2022, an additional 4,691,750 shares of our common stock, on a post-split basis (the “Second Closing”). After the issuance thereof Reddington owned 5,114,475 shares of our common stock, or approximately 90% of our total shares of common stock outstanding.

On February 23, 2023, the Company and Nordicus Partners A/S, a Danish stock corporation, consummated the transactions contemplated by that certain Contribution Agreement (the “Contribution Agreement”) by and among the Company, Nordicus, GK Partners, Henrik Rouf and Life Science Power House ApS (“LSPH”). GK Partners, Rouf and LSPH are collectively referred to herein as the “Sellers”, and each individually as a “Seller”). Pursuant to the Contribution Agreement the Sellers contributed, transferred, assigned and conveyed to the Company all right, title and interest in and to one hundred percent (100%) of the issued and outstanding capital stock of Nordicus for an aggregate of 2,500,000 shares of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.001 per share. As a result of the Business Combination, Nordicus became a 100% wholly owned subsidiary of the Company.

On May 17, 2023, the Company changed its name to Nordicus Partners Corporation and its ticker symbol to NORD.

On June 9, 2023, Tom Glaesner Larsen resigned from the Company’s board of directors, and the remaining board members appointed Henrik Keller as his replacement.

NOTE 2 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of Presentation

The Company’s unaudited consolidated financial statements have been included in sales. Shipping and handling costs incurred by the Company have been included in cost of sales.

Revenue recognition

        Revenue is recognizedprepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”), and pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) and reflect all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments, which management believes are necessary to fairly present the financial position, results of operations and cash flows of the Company as of and for the three month period ending June 30, 2023, and not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year ending March 31, 2024. These unaudited financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and related notes included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended March 31, 2023.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that four basic criteriaaffect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. The Company’s accounting estimates include the collectability of receivables, useful lives of long-lived assets and recoverability of those assets, impairment in fair value of goodwill.

Concentration of Credit Risk

We maintain our cash in bank deposit accounts, the balances of which at times may exceed federally insured limits. We continually monitor our banking relationships and consequently have not experienced any losses in our accounts. We believe we are not exposed to any significant credit risk on cash.

Cash Equivalents

The Company considers all highly liquid investments with a maturity of three months or less when purchased to be met before revenue can be recognized: (i) persuasive evidencecash equivalents. There were no cash equivalents as of an arrangement exists; (ii)June 30, 2023 and March 31, 2023.

Principles of Consolidation

The accompanying consolidated financial statements, includes the price is fixed or determinable; (iii) collectibility is reasonably assured;accounts of the Company and (iv) product delivery has occurred or servicesits wholly owned subsidiary, Nordicus Partners A/S. All significant intercompany transactions have been rendered. eliminated in consolidation.

Translation Adjustment

The accounts of the Company’s subsidiary are maintained in Danish krone. According to the Codification, all assets and liabilities were translated at the current exchange rate at respective balance sheets dates, members’ capital are translated at the historical rates and income statement items are translated at the average exchange rate for the period. The resulting translation adjustments are reported under other comprehensive income in accordance with the Comprehensive Income Topic of the Codification (ASC 220), as a component of Stockholders’ equity. Transaction gains and losses are reflected in the income statement.

Comprehensive Income

The Company recognizes revenue as products are shipped based on FOB shipping point terms when title passes to customers.

Deferred revenue

        Deferred revenue represents payments received in advanceuses SFAS 130 “Reporting Comprehensive Income” (ASC Topic 220). Comprehensive income is comprised of products shipped.

Advertising

        Advertising costs are charged to operations when incurred. Total advertising expense was $31,346net income and $15,580 for the years ended December 31, 2004 and 2003, respectively.

New accounting pronouncement

        In November 2004, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 151 "Inventory Costs," which amends the guidance in Accounting Research Bulleting (ARB) No. 43, Chapter 4 "Inventory Pricing," to clarify the accounting for abnormal amounts of idle facility expense, freight, handling costs, and wasted material (spoilage). Paragraph 5 of ARB 43, Chapter 4, previously stated that under some circumstances, items such as idle facility expense, excessive spoilage, double freight, and re-handling costs may be so abnormal as to require treatment as current period charges." SFAS No. 151 requires that those items be recognized as current-period charges regardless of whether they meet the criterion of "so abnormal." In addition, SFAS No, 151 requires that allocation of fixed production overheadsall changes to the costsstatements of conversion be based onStockholders’ equity, except changes in paid-in capital and distributions to shareholders. Comprehensive income is included in net loss and foreign currency translation adjustments.

Stock-based Compensation

In June 2018, the normal capacity ofFASB issued ASU 2018-07, Compensation – Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Improvements to Nonemployee Share-Based Payment Accounting. ASU 2018-07 allows companies to account for nonemployee awards in the production facilities. SFAS No. 151 shall besame manner as employee awards. The guidance is effective for inventory costs incurred during fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, and interim periods within those annual periods.

F-19

Net Income (Loss) Per Common Share

Net income (loss) per common share is computed pursuant to section 260-10-45 of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification. Basic net income (loss) per common share is computed by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. Diluted net income (loss) per common share is computed by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted average number of shares of common stock and potentially outstanding shares of common stock during the period. The weighted average number of common shares outstanding and potentially outstanding common shares assumes that the Company incorporated as of the beginning of the first period presented. As of June 15, 2005. Earlier application30, 2023 and 2022, there were 6,610,000 and 5,860,000 potentially dilutive shares of common stock from warrants, respectively. Diluted shares are not presented when the effect of the computations are anti-dilutive due to the losses incurred. Accordingly, there is permittedno difference in the amounts presented for inventory costs incurred during fiscal years beginning afterbasic and diluted loss per share.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

The Company has implemented all new applicable accounting pronouncements that are in effect. These pronouncements did not have any material impact on the date SFAS No. 151 was issued. SFAS No. 151 shall be applied prospectively. Thefinancial statements unless otherwise disclosed, and the Company does not expect the adoption of SFAS No. 151 tobelieve that there are any other new accounting pronouncements that have been issued that might have a material effectimpact on its financial statements.position or results of operations.

NOTE 3 - GOING CONCERN

The Company’s financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which assumes the Company will be able to realize its assets and discharge its liabilities in the normal course of business for the foreseeable future. The Company has not yet generated any revenue and has incurred losses since inception resulting in an accumulated deficit of $42,237,959 as of June 30, 2023. As a result, we expect our funds will not be sufficient to meet our needs for more than twelve months from the date of issuance of these financial instrumentsstatements. Accordingly, management believes there is substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.

The carrying amountability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon the Company’s recent acquisition, its generating profitable operations in the future and/or obtaining the necessary financing to meet its obligations and repay its liabilities arising from normal business operations when they come due. Management intends to finance operating costs over the next twelve months with existing cash on hand, loans from third parties and/or private placement of common stock. The financial statements of the Company do not include any adjustments that may result from the outcome of these uncertainties.

ITEM 14. INDEMNIFICATION OF DIRECTORS AND OFFICERS
OFFICERS.

        Indemnification

Delaware General Corporation Law (“DGCL”) Section 145 provides us with the power to indemnify any of our directors, officers, employees and agents. The person entitled to indemnification must have conducted himself in good faith, and must reasonably believe that his conduct was in, or not opposed to, our best interests. In a criminal action, the director, officer, employee or agent must not have had reasonable cause to believe that his conduct was unlawful.

Under DGCL section 145, advances for expenses may be made by agreement if the director or officer affirms in writing that he has met the standards for indemnification and will personally repay the expenses if it is determined that such officer or director did not meet those standards.

Our bylaws include an indemnification provision under CardioTech's Articleswhich we have the power to indemnify our directors, officers, former directors and officers, employees and other agents (including heirs and personal representatives) against all costs, charges and expenses actually and reasonably incurred, including an amount paid to settle an action or satisfy a judgment to which a director or officer is made a party by reason of Organization and By-laws and Massachusetts Law: CardioTech's Articlesbeing or having been a director or officer of Organizationthe Company. Our bylaws further provide for the indemnificationadvancement of directorsall expenses incurred in connection with a proceeding upon receipt of an undertaking by or officers, in accordance withon behalf of such person to repay such amounts if it is determined that the by-laws,party is not entitled to the fullest extent permittedbe indemnified under our bylaws. No advance will be made by the Massachusetts General Corporation Law. CardioTech's bylaws also provides that CardioTech shall indemnify and hold harmless,Company to the fullest extent permitted by law, any person made or threatened to be made a party if it is determined that the party acting in bad faith. These indemnification rights are contractual, and as such will continue as to any legal action by reason of the fact that sucha person is or waswho has ceased to be a director, officer, employee or other agent, and will inure to the benefit of the heirs, executors and administrators of such a person.

Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be permitted for our directors, officers and controlling persons pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, we have been advised that in the opinion of the SEC such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is, therefore, unenforceable.

Our Corporate Bylaws at Article IX, provide that the Corporation has accepted a provision indemnifying to the full extent permitted by the law, thereby eliminating or limiting the personal liability of directors, officers, employees or corporate agentagents for damages for breach of CardioTechfiduciary duty as a director or any subsidiaryofficer, but such provision must not eliminate or constituent corporationlimit the liability of a director or served any other enterpriseofficer for (a) acts or omissions involving willful misconduct, gross negligence, fraud, or knowing violation of law; or (b) the payments of distributions in violation of Delaware General Corporation Law.

On October 12, 2021, we entered into an indemnification agreement with Bennett Yankowitz, who at the request of CardioTech, against expenses, judgments, finestime was our Chief Financial Officer and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred by such person in connection with such action. Massachusetts General Corporation Law provides for the indemnification of directors and officers under certain conditions.sole director.

        CardioTech Directors and Officers Insurance: The directors and officers of CardioTech are insured under a policy of directors' and officers' liability insurance.


INSOFAR AS INDEMNIFICATION FOR LIABILITIES ARISING UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933 MAY BE PERMITTED TO OUR DIRECTORS, OFFICERS AND CONTROLLING PERSONS PURSUANT TO THE FORGOING PROVISIONS OR OTHERWISE, WE HAVE BEEN ADVISED THAT, IN THE OPINION OF THE SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION, SUCH INDEMNIFICATION IS AGAINST PUBLIC POLICY AS EXPRESSED IN THAT ACT AND IS, THEREFORE, UNENFORCEABLE.

ITEM 15. RECENT SALES OF UNREGISTERED SECURITIES
SECURITIES.

        In the last three years, the Company sold

Since April 1, 2020, we have issued the following unregistered securities:

        In December, 2004, CardioTech

Common Stock Issuances

On October 12, 2021, we entered into a Stock Purchase Agreement (the “SPA”) with Reddington Partners LLC, a California limited liability company (“Reddington”) providing for the purchase of a total of 5,114,475 of our common stock, on a post-split basis.

On February 23, 2023, we entered into a Contribution Agreement with Nordicus Partners A/S, a Danish stock corporation, GK Partners ApS (“GK Partners”), Henrik Rouf and Life Science Power House ApS (“LSPH, GK Partners, Rouf and LSPH are collectively referred to herein as the “Sellers”). Pursuant to the Contribution Agreement, the Sellers contributed, transferred, assigned and conveyed to us all right, title and interest in and to one hundred percent (100%) of the issued 1,139,586and outstanding capital stock of Nordicus Partners A/S for an aggregate of 2,500,000 shares of our common stock at $2.40 per sharestock.

On February 14, 2023, GK Partners exercised a portion of its warrant for 115,000 shares for total proceeds of $115,000, on June 26, 2023, GK Partners exercised a portion of its warrant for 25,000 shares for total proceeds of $25,000, on July 26, 2023, GK Partners exercised a portion of its warrant for 25,000 shares for total proceeds of $25,000 and on August 24, 2023, GK Partners exercised a portion of its warrant for 30,000 shares for total proceeds of $30,000.

None of the foregoing transactions involved any underwriters, underwriting discounts or commissions, or any public offering. We believe the offers, sales and issuances of the above securities were exempt from registration under the Securities Act (or Regulation D or Regulation S promulgated thereunder) by virtue of Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act because the issuance of securities to the recipients did not involve a public offering, or in reliance on Rule 701 because the transactions were pursuant to compensatory benefit plans or contracts relating to compensation as provided under such rule. The recipients of the securities in each of these transactions represented their intentions to acquire the securities for investment only and not with a private placement. Inview to or for sale in connection with any distribution thereof, and appropriate legends were placed upon the transaction, the Companystock certificates issued warrantsin these transactions. All recipients had adequate access, through their relationships with us, to the investorsinformation about us. The sales of these securities were made without any general solicitation or advertising.
