INDEPENDENT AUDITORS’ REPORT
To the Board of Directors of
Chemical Specialist and Development, Inc. & Subsidiaries
9733 Meador Road
Conroe, TX 77303
We have audited the accompanying consolidated financial statements of Chemical Specialist and Development, Inc. & Subsidiaries (a Texas corporation) and subsidiaries, which comprise the consolidated balance sheets as of January 31, 2013 and 2012, and the related consolidated statements of income, changes in stockholders’ equity, and cash flows for the years then ended, and the related notes to the financial statements.
Management’s Responsibility for the Financial Statements
Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of these consolidated financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America; this includes the design, implementation, and maintenance of internal control relevant to the preparation and fair presentation of consolidated financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
Auditor’s Responsibility
Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on our audits. We conducted our audits in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements are free from material misstatement.
An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated financial statements. The procedures selected depend on the auditor’s judgment, including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the consolidated financial statements, whether due to fraud or error. In making those risk assessments, the auditor considers internal control relevant to the entity’s preparation and fair presentation of the consolidated financial statements in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the entity’s internal control. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of significant accounting estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the consolidated financial statements.
We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion.
Opinion
In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Chemical Specialist and Development, Inc. & Subsidiaries and subsidiaries as of January 31, 2013 and 2012, and the results of their operations and their cash flows for the years then ended in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Report on Consolidating Information
Our audits were conducted for the purpose of forming an opinion on the consolidated financial statements as a whole. The consolidating information in Schedule of General and Administrative Expenses is presented for purposes of additional analysis of the consolidated financial statements rather than to present the financial position, results of operations, and cash flows of the individual companies, and it is not a required part of the consolidated financial statements. Such information is the responsibility of management and was derived from and relates directly to the underlying accounting and other records used to prepare the consolidated financial statements. The consolidating information has been subjected to the auditing procedures applied in the audit of the consolidated financial statements and certain additional procedures, including comparing and reconciling such information directly to the underlying accounting and other records used to prepare the consolidated financial statements or to the consolidated financial statements themselves, and other additional procedures in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America. In our opinion, the consolidating information is fairly stated in all material respects in relation to the consolidated financial statements as a whole.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
JANUARY 31, 2013 AND 2012
NOTE 1 — SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Principles of Consolidation
The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Chemical Specialists and Development, Inc., and its subsidiaries: Startex Chemical, Inc. and Startex Distribution West, LLC. All significant intercompany transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
Nature of Activities
Chemical Specialists and Development, Inc. was organized in the State of Texas on April 26, 1976, and is engaged in the packaging and distribution of chemicals, solvents, and other materials for governmental and industrial use. The Company sells its products to various departments of the federal government and to domestic and international customers through its various divisions. Operations were expanded in October 2009 with the purchase of a plant in Baton Rouge, Louisiana.
Startex Chemical, Inc. is a wholly owned subsidiary of Chemical Specialists and Development, Inc. that was formed in 1985 to sell to distributors and retail outlets.
Startex Distribution West, LLC was formed July 1, 2009 to expand sales, consistent with current operations, along the west coast of the United States. Operations in California are conducted via a logistics support chemical management warehouse facility located in the southern part of that state. Chemical Specialists and Development, Inc. has an eighty percent (80%) controlling interest in Startex Distribution West, LLC. The remaining twenty percent (20%) minority interest is owned by an individual.
Buckeye Properties, Inc., owned by the same principals of the Company, was formed in 1994 and owns two (2) dwellings located in Conroe, Texas.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the 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.
Cash Equivalents
The Company considers all highly liquid investments with a maturity of three months or less at the date of acquisition to be “cash equivalents.”
Accounts Receivable
The Company generally charges off any account deemed to be uncollectible. In the opinion of management, reserves for uncollectible accounts of $776,845 and $349,404 were adequate as of January 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively. This reserve is based on the Company’s past experience with its customers. Accounts receivable are stated at their net realizable value, which approximates their fair value.
Inventory
Inventory is stated at the lower of cost or market, using the first-in, first-out method of accounting.

Advertising Costs
The Company expenses advertising costs as they are incurred. Advertising expenses for the years ended January 31, 2013 and 2012 were $80,730 and $82,731, respectively.
Property and Equipment
Property, plant and equipment are recorded at cost. Depreciation and amortization are provided using the accelerated and straight-line methods of depreciation over the useful lives of the assets. Expenditures for repairs and maintenance of the property and equipment are expensed as incurred unless they materially extend the useful lives of the assets; such expenses are capitalized and depreciated over the remaining life of the asset.
Income Taxes
Taxes are provided on all revenue and expense items included in income, regardless of the period in which such items may be recognized for income tax purposes, except for items representing a permanent difference between pre-tax accounting income and tax income.
Shipping and Handling Costs
Freight billed to customers is considered sales revenue and the related freight costs are considered a cost of sales.
