POLLEX, INC. AND SUBSIDIARY
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(UNAUDITED)
June 30, 2009
NOTE A – BASIS OF PRESENTATION
The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial information. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary in order to make the consolidated financial statements not misleading have been included. Results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2009 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2009. For further information, refer to the consolidated financial statements and footnotes thereto included in the Pollex, Inc. annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2008.
NOTE B – GOING CONCERN
As shown in the accompanying consolidated financial statements, the Company incurred net losses of $12,979,904 and $13,550,286 for the six months ended June 30, 2009 and 2008, respectively, and has an accumulated deficit of $100,103,440 as of June 30, 2009. Management’s plans include raising capital through the equity markets to fund future operations and generating revenue through its license agreements. Failure to raise adequate capital and generate adequate sales revenues could result in the Company having to curtail or cease operations. Additionally, even if the Company does raise sufficient capital to support its operating expenses and generate adequate revenues, there can be no assurances that the revenue will be sufficient to enable it to develop business to a level where it will generate profits and cash flows from operations. These matters raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. However, the accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. These consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recovery of the recorded assets or the classification of the liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.
NOTE C – RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
In September 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 157, "Fair Value Measurements" ("SFAS No. 157"). SFAS No. 157 establishes a common definition for fair value to be applied to US GAAP guidance requiring the use of fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value, and expands the disclosure about such fair value measurements. The application of SFAS No. 157 as it relates to financial assets and financial liabilities is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007, and interim periods within those fiscal years. On February 12, 2008, the FASB issued FSP FAS 157-2, "Effective Date of FASB Statement No. 157," which delays the effective date of SFAS No. 157 for all nonfinancial assets and nonfinancial liabilities, except those that are recognized or disclosed at fair value in the financial statements on at least an annual basis, to fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2008, and interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company's adoption of SFAS No. 157 on January 1, 2009 for all financial assets and liabilities and any other assets and liabilities that are recognized or disclosed at fair value on a recurring basis did not impact the Company's consolidated financial statements. The provisions of SFAS No. 157 are to be applied prospectively as of the beginning of the fiscal year in which it is applied, with any transition adjustment recognized as a cumulative effect adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings. The Company does not anticipate that the adoption of
POLLEX, INC. AND SUBSIDIARY
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(UNAUDITED)
June 30, 2009
NOTE C – RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS (Continued)
SFAS No. 157 for nonfinancial assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a non-recurring basis will have a material impact on its financial position and results of operations.
In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 141R, Business Combinations. This standard establishes principles and requirements for how an acquirer recognizes and measures in its financial statements the identifiable assets acquired, the liabilities assumed, any non-controlling interest in the acquiree and the goodwill acquired. This statement also establishes disclosure requirements which will enable users to evaluate the nature and financial effects of the business combination. SFAS No.141R is effective for us for acquisitions made after January 1, 2009. Adoption of SFAS 141R did not have a material impact on the Company results of operations, cash flows or financial position.
In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 160, Noncontrolling Interests in Consolidated Financial Statements. This standard outlines the accounting and reporting for ownership interest in a subsidiary held by parties other than the parent. The Company adopted SFAS 160 on January 1, 2009. Adoption of SFAS 160 did not have a material impact on the Company results of operations, cash flows or financial position.
In April 2008, the FASB adopted FSP SFAS No. 142-3, Determination of the Useful Life of Intangible Assets, amending the factors that should be considered in developing renewal or extension assumptions used to determine the useful life of a recognized intangible asset under SFAS No. 142, Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets. This FSP is effective for intangible assets acquired on or after January 1, 2009. This FSP is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial position, results of operations and cash flows. The adoption of this FSP did not have an impact on the Company’s results of operations, cash flows or financial position.
In April 2009, the FASB issued FSP FAS 107-1 and Accounting Principles Board (APB) 28-1, Interim Disclosures about Fair Value of Financial Instruments. The FSP amends SFAS No. 107 “Disclosures about Fair Value of Financial Instruments” to require an entity to provide disclosures about fair value of financial instruments in interim financial information. This FSP is to be applied prospectively and is effective for interim and annual periods ending after June 15, 2009 with early adoption permitted for periods ending after March 15, 2009. The adoption of this FSP did not have an impact on the Company’s results of operations, cash flows or financial position.
In April 2009, the FASB issued FSP No. 157-4, “Determining Fair Value When the Volume and Level of Activity for the Asset or Liability Have Significantly Decreased and Identifying Transactions That Are Not Orderly” (“FSP FAS 157-4”), which provides additional guidance for estimating fair value in accordance with SFAS No. 157, “Fair Value Measurements” (“SFAS No. 157”). FSP FAS 157-4 is effective for the quarter ending June 30, 2009. The adoption of this FSP did not have an impact on the Company’s results of operations, cash flows or financial position.
In April 2009, the FASB issued FSP SFAS No. 141(R)-1, Accounting for Assets Acquired and Liabilities Assumed in a Business Combination That Arise from Contingencies. FSP SFAS No. 141(R)-1 will amend the provisions related to the initial recognition and measurement, subsequent measurement and disclosure of assets and liabilities arising from contingencies in a

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

NOTE C – RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS (Continued)
business combination under SFAS No. 141(R), Business Combinations. The FSP will carry forward the requirements in
SFAS No. 141, Business Combinations, for acquired contingencies, thereby requiring that such contingencies be recognized at fair value on the acquisition date if fair value can be reasonably estimated during the allocation period. Otherwise, entities would typically account for the acquired contingencies in accordance with SFAS No. 5, Accounting for Contingencies. The FSP will have the same effective date as SFAS No. 141(R), and was therefore adopted January 1, 2009. Adoption of this FSP did not have a material impact on the Company results of operations, cash flows or financial position.
In May 2009, the FASB issued SFAS No. 165, Subsequent Events. SFAS No. 165 is intended to establish general standards of accounting for and disclosure of events that occur after the balance sheet date but before financial statements are issued or are available to be issued. This SFAS requires the disclosure of the date through which an entity has evaluated subsequent events and the basis for that date. The disclosure requirement under this SFAS is effective for the Company’s interim reporting period ended on June 30, 2009. The adoption of this FSP did not have an impact on the Company’s results of operations, cash flows or financial position.
In June 2009, the FASB issued SFAS No. 167, Amendments to FASB Interpretation No. 46(R). SFAS No. 167 changes how a company determines when an entity that is insufficiently capitalized or is not controlled through voting (or similar rights) should be consolidated. The determination of whether a company is required to consolidate an entity is based on, among other things, an entity’s purpose and design and a company’s ability to direct the activities of the entity that most significantly impact the entity’s economic performance. This SFAS is effective for the Company’s fiscal year beginning on January 1, 2010. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the implementation of SFAS No. 167 on its consolidated financial position, results of operations and cash flows.
In June 2009, the FASB issued SFAS No. 168, The FASB Accounting Standards Codification and the Hierarchy of Generally Accepted Accounting Principles—a replacement of FASB Statement No. 162. SFAS No. 168 establishes the FASB Accounting Standards Codification as the source of authoritative accounting principles and the framework for selecting the principles used in the preparation of financial statements of nongovernmental entities that are presented in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States. This SFAS is effective for the Company’s interim reporting period ending on September 30, 2009. This SFAS is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial position, results of operations and cash flows.
Our Management’s Discussion and Analysis contains not only statements that are historical facts, but also statements that are forward-looking (within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934). Forward-looking statements are, by their very nature, uncertain and risky. These risks and uncertainties include international, national and local general economic and market conditions; demographic changes; our ability to sustain, manage, or forecast growth; our ability to successfully make and integrate acquisitions; existing government regulations and changes in, or the failure to comply with, government regulations; adverse publicity; competition; fluctuations and difficulty in forecasting operating results; changes in business strategy or development plans; business disruptions; the ability to attract and retain qualified personnel; the ability to protect technology; and other risks that might be detailed from time to time in our filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
Although the forward-looking statements in this Quarterly Report reflect the good faith judgment of our management, such statements can only be based on facts and factors currently known by them. Consequently, and because forward-looking statements are inherently subject to risks and uncertainties, the actual results and outcomes may differ materially from the results and outcomes discussed in the forward-looking statements. You are urged to carefully review and consider the various disclosures made by us in this report and in our other reports as we attempt to advise interested parties of the risks and factors that may affect our business, financial condition, and results of operations and prospects.
Overview
Pollex, Inc., formerly Joytoto USA, Inc., formerly BioStem, Inc. (the “Company,” “we,” and “us”) was incorporated on November 2, 2001, in the State of Nevada, as Web Views Corporation. In June 2003, we acquired 100% of the issued and outstanding shares of Cascade Mountain Mining Corp., pursuant to an exchange agreement. As a result of the acquisition and the change in focus of our business, on June 17, 2003, we changed our name from Web Views Corporation to Cascade Mountain Mining Company, Inc.
On January 7, 2005, we changed our name from Cascade Mountain Mining Company, Inc. to National Parking Systems, Inc., in anticipation of an exchange agreement entered into on January 13, 2005, whereby we acquired 100% of the issued and outstanding shares of ABS Holding Company, Inc., a Nevada corporation and BH Holding Company, Inc., a Nevada corporation.
On November 18, 2005, we changed our name from National Parking Systems, Inc. to BioStem, Inc. in contemplation of the closing of an Agreement and Plan of Merger we had entered into with Cryobanks International, Inc., a stem cell company. Due to the failure of Cryobanks to satisfy certain conditions of the closing of such Agreement, we terminated the Agreement in September 2007, and sought a new acquisition.
On October 12, 2007, we entered into a Stock Exchange Agreement with Joytoto Co., Ltd., a Korean company (“Joytoto Korea”) , and Joyon Entertainment Co., Ltd, a Korean company(“Joyon Korea”), to purchase 100% of the issued and outstanding capital stock of Joyon Entertainment, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“JEI”), in exchange for 3,833,333 shares of our common stock (after giving effect to a one-for-forty reverse split of our common stock) as well as the divestment of our two subsidiaries, BH Holding Company, Inc. and ABS Holding Company, Inc. Effective on October 31, 2007, our name was changed to Joytoto USA, Inc. and our common stock commenced trading under the new symbol “JYTO”.
We are a majority owned subsidiary of Joytoto Korea. We have one wholly-owned subsidiary, JEI, and two sub-subsidiaries, Joytoto Technologies, Inc., a Nevada corporation (“JTI”) and Joytoto America, Inc., a California corporation (“JAI”), both of which are wholly-owned subsidiaries of JEI.
On October 31, 2007, we divested our two subsidiaries and acquired JEI., and its two wholly-owned subsidiaries, JAI and JTI The discussion below concerns the business operations of our new subsidiaries, which are engaged in the business of providing online gaming services and MP3 and other technical products.
Our business is conducted through our two sub-subsidiaries, JTI and JAI. Both were acquired by JEI, in the second quarter of 2007. Both entities were formed in the third quarter of 2006. We generated revenue of $60,000 in the first quarter of 2009 through JTI. Even though we had revenue from the first quarter of 2009, we have operated at a loss for 2009. All of our revenue goals are based on our MP3 products business, but we are planning to open an online game portal at the beginning of next year. The online game business operated by JAI will be a cash cow business model for us.
On February 20, 2008, we entered into an Agreement to Manufacture, Supply and Market with Hyundai RFmon Corp. (“Hyundai”), a United States distributor of electronic products. Pursuant to this agreement, upon receipt of an initial purchase order from Hyundai of a minimum of $10 million, the Company will manufacture, market and supply to Hyundai various electronic and digital products, including, but not limited to, ATM machines, DVD download dispensers and smart teller machines. This agreement will remain in effect until December 31, 2012.
Through our sub-subsidiary, JTI, we are a virtual, original equipment manufacturer (“OEM”) of consumer electronics for retailers located throughout the world. Effective on June 11, 2007, JTI entered into an Exclusive Distributorship Agreement with Joytoto Korea, whereby JTI was appointed as the exclusive worldwide distributor of Joytoto Korea’s MP3 products and other consumer electronic devices. Joytoto Korea will complete all purchase orders existing or pending as of the date of the Exclusive Distributorship Agreement. Joytoto Korea has transferred all of its MP3 products business as described in the Exclusive Distributorship Agreement to fulfill all new purchase orders for such products. We have entered into direct contractual relationships with Joytoto Korea’s primary customers.
On April 18, 2007, JAI entered into a Master License Agreement with Joytoto Korea, and Joyon Korea (collectively, the “Licensors”), whereby JAI acquired an exclusive license to operate an online game service, using four online games developed by the Licensors, in the United States, for a period of ten years . In addition, JAI has the option to enter into an exclusive license to provide an additional twenty online games through its online game service.

Introduction
Our primary assets are the two online game license agreements and the Exclusive Distributorship Agreement. As of June 30, 2009, we have not begun to generate revenue from these agreements, and as a result we have very few current assets. Our cash requirements have been relatively small up to this point, but as a result of the acquisition of JEI and the fact that we are now a public, reporting company, we anticipate that our cash needs will increase dramatically. We anticipate satisfying these cash needs through the sale of our common stock until we not only begin to generate revenue, but until we can generate enough revenue to sustain our operations.

Cash Requirements
As stated above, we anticipate that our cash requirements will increase substantially as a result of the fact that we are now a public, reporting company and as we begin to increase operations to generate revenue from our license and distributorship agreements.
Sources and Uses of Cash
Operations
For the six months ended June 30, 2009, we had a net loss from operations of $12,979,904 compared to $13,550,286 for the six months ended June 30, 2008. This was offset by depreciation and amortization of $312,964, stock based compensation of $12,500,000, an increase in other receivables of $6,500 and an increase in accrued expenses of $35,211, for total cash used in our operating activities of $138,229.
Investments
We had no cash provided by investments for the six months ended June 30, 2009.
Financing
Our cash flows from financing activities totaled $129,570.
Critical Accounting Policies
The discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations are based upon its financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The preparation of these financial statements requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses. In consultation with its Board of Directors, we have identified the following accounting policies that we believe are key to an understanding of our financial statements. These are important accounting policies that require management’s most difficult, subjective judgments.
Valuation of License Agreements
We account for goodwill and license agreements in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 142, “Goodwill and other Intangible Assets.” Under SFAS 142, goodwill and intangibles with indefinite lives are not amortized; rather they are tested for impairment at least annually. Intangible assets and license agreements, other than goodwill, with definite lives will be amortized over their useful lives ranging from 3 to 10 years. We periodically evaluate the reasonableness of the useful lives of these intangible assets. The license agreements were valued on our balance sheet as follows:
A. Upon execution of the Master License Agreement we issued Joyon Korea thirty million (30,000,000) common shares as consideration. Prior to the acquisition of the Master License Agreement we had an independent business valuation performed whereby our enterprise value was calculated to be $0.1799 per share. Accordingly, the shares issued for the license were valued at $0.1799 per share.
B. Prior to the acquisition of the Exclusive Distributorship Agreement we had an independent business valuation performed whereby our enterprise value was calculated to be $0.3562 per share. Accordingly, the shares issued for the license agreement were valued at $0.3562 per share.
C. License agreements are comprised of the following:
| | | June 30, 2009 | | Estimated Useful Life |
| | | | | |
| Pang Pang License | | $ | 279,375 | | 3 years |
| North American Master License | | | 2,419,444 | | 10 years |
| Exclusive Distributorship | | | 4,536,786 | | 10 years |
| | | | 7,387,776 | | |
| Less: accumulated amortization | | | (2,850,990 | ) | |
| | | | | | |
| | | $ | 4,536,786 | | |
Off-balance Sheet Arrangements
We have no off-balance sheet arrangements that are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources that is deemed by our management to be material to investors.
ITEM 3 Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
As a smaller reporting company we are not required to provide the information required by this Item.
ITEM 4 Controls and Procedures
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
We conducted an evaluation, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or the Exchange Act, as of June 30, 2009, to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports filed or submitted by us under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the Securities Exchange Commission's rules and forms, including to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports filed or submitted by us under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive and principal financial officers, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Based on that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that as of March 31, 2009, our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective at the reasonable assurance level due to the material weaknesses described below.
In light of the material weaknesses described below, we performed additional analysis and other post-closing procedures to ensure our financial statements were prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. Accordingly, we believe that the financial statements included in this report fairly present, in all material respects, our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented.
A material weakness is a control deficiency (within the meaning of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (PCAOB) Auditing Standard No. 5) or combination of control deficiencies, such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of the annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected. Management has identified the following three material weaknesses which have caused management to conclude that, as of June 30, 2009, our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective at the reasonable assurance level:
1. We do not have written documentation of our internal control policies and procedures. Written documentation of key internal controls over financial reporting is a requirement of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act. Management evaluated the impact of our failure to have written documentation of our internal controls and procedures on our assessment of our disclosure controls and procedures and has concluded that the control deficiency that resulted represented a material weakness.
2. We do not have sufficient segregation of duties within accounting functions, which is a basic internal control. Due to our size and nature, segregation of all conflicting duties may not always be possible and may not be economically feasible. However, to the extent possible, the initiation of transactions, the custody of assets and the recording of transactions should be performed by separate individuals. Management evaluated the impact of our failure to have segregation of duties on our assessment of our disclosure controls and procedures and has concluded that the control deficiency that resulted represented a material weakness.
3. We had a significant number of audit adjustments last fiscal year. Audit adjustments are the result of a failure of the internal controls to prevent or detect misstatements of accounting information. The failure could be due to inadequate design of the internal controls or to a misapplication or override of controls. Management evaluated the impact of our significant number of audit adjustments last year and has concluded that the control deficiency that resulted represented a material weakness.
To address these material weaknesses, management performed additional analyses and other procedures to ensure that the financial statements included herein fairly present, in all material respects, our financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented.
Remediation of Material Weaknesses
To remediate the material weaknesses in our disclosure controls and procedures identified above, we have continued to refine our internal procedures to begin to implement segregation of duties and to reduce the number of audit adjustments.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
Except as noted above, there were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting, as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act, during our most recently completed fiscal quarter that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
ITEM 4T Controls and Procedures
We are not required to furnish the information required by this item until we report on our fiscal year ending December 31, 2009.
