Restatement
The purpose of this amendment to the Form 10-QSB for Planet Polymer Technologies, Inc., for the quarter ended March 31, 2004, is to restate the condensed financial statements to expense certain costs of a merger transaction that had previously been capitalized. Previously, the Company had capitalized $121,602 of costs associated with the acquisition of Allergy Free, LLC (“Allergy”). As the transaction progressed, it became evident that Allergy was to be the accounting acquirer and, accordingly, the Company’s costs of the transaction should have been expensed as incurred, rather than capitalized. As a result, the accompanying condensed financial statements have been restated to expense the costs of the transaction.

| Notes to Unaudited Condensed Financial Statements |
| 1. | Basis of Presentation |
In management’s opinion, the accompanying unaudited financial statements of Planet Polymer Technologies, Inc. (“Planet” or the “Company”) have been prepared in accordance with the interim reporting requirements of Form 10-QSB, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. However, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States for complete financial statements.
In management’s opinion, all adjustments (consisting of only normal recurring adjustments) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Operating results for the three months ended March 31, 2004, are not necessarily indicative of results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2004. For additional information, refer to the Company’s financial statements and notes thereto for the year ended December 31, 2003, contained in the Company’s Form 10-KSB for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2003.
Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current period presentation.
| 2. | Restatement |
Previously, the Company had capitalized $121,602 costs associated with the acquisition of Allergy Free, LLC (See Note 3). As the transaction progressed, it became evident that Allergy Free, LLC, was the accounting acquirer in the transaction with accordingly the Company’s costs of the transaction should have been expensed as incurred rather than capitalized. As a result, the accompanying condensed financial statements have been restated to expense the costs of the transaction. The previously reported net loss and net loss per share for the three months ended March 31, 2004, have been changed as followed:
| Net loss, as previously reported | $ | 2,445 | ||
| Adjustment to expense costs of transaction | 121,602 | |||
| Net loss, as restated | $ | 124,047 | ||
| Net loss per share, as previously report | $ | 0.00 | ||
| Net loss per share, restated | $ | 0.02 |
| 3. | Liquidity and Capital Resources |
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and satisfaction of liabilities in the ordinary course of business. For the three months ended March 31, 2004 the Company incurred a loss of $124,047. As of March 31, 2004, the Company had an accumulated deficit of $14,463,663. These matters raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The Company does not believe that its existing sources of liquidity and anticipated revenue will be adequate to satisfy the Company’s projected working capital and other cash requirements through September 30, 2004, to continue as a public reporting company without raising additional capital or consummating a merger (see below). For the three months ended March 31, 2004 the
Table of Contents
Company had no employees and did not conduct any research or development. The Company’s future capital requirements will be dependent upon many factors, including, but not limited to, costs associated with the continued support of licenses on the Company’s proprietary polymer materials, costs associated with the enforcement of the Company’s patents, and costs associated with the administration of the Company. Although possible, it is unlikely that the Company will be able to generate positive cash flow and show a profit through December 31, 2004.
On March 22, 2004, the Company and Allergy Free, LLC (“Allergy Free”) announced that on March 18, 2004, they had entered into an Asset Purchase Agreement (“Agreement”). As subsequently amended, the Agreement provides for the Company to acquire all assets and assume certain liabilities of Allergy Free for which Planet will provide the following consideration: a subordinated convertible note in the approximate principal amount of $356,430 bearing interest at 5.5% per annum and due and payable within three (3) years and approximately 26,678,348 shares of common stock of the Company. Additionally, at or near the closing, $2,287,400 of Allergy Free’s investor notes payable and $248,519 of related interest payable will be converted into approximately 50,718,380 shares of common stock of the Company. As a result, after the closing of the Agreement and the conversion of the notes and related interest payable, the members of Allergy Free will own approximately 90% of the voting shares of the Company. Since the members of Allergy Free will receive the majority of the voting shares of the Company, the current president of Allergy Free will become president of the Company and since representatives of Allergy Free will hold three of the five seats on the Company’s Board of Directors, the merger will be accounted for as a reverse acquisition whereby Allergy Free will be the accounting acquirer (legal acquiree) and the Company will be the accounting acquiree (legal acquirer). Investors are encouraged to review, when available, the Company’s Proxy Statement which will be available through EDGAR at www.sec.gov.
| 4. | Earnings (Loss) Per Share |
Earnings (loss) per share is computed using the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding and is presented for basic and diluted earnings (loss) per share. Basic earnings (loss) per share is computed by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted earnings per share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period increased to include, if dilutive, the number of additional common shares that would have been outstanding if the potential common shares had been issued. Dilutive potential common shares consist of the incremental common shares issuable upon conversion of the convertible preferred stock (using the “if converted” method) and exercise of stock options and warrants (using the treasury stock method) for all periods.
The Company has excluded all convertible preferred stock and outstanding stock options and warrants from the calculation of diluted loss per share for the three months ended March 31, 2004 and March 31, 2003, because all such securities are either anti-dilutive for those periods or their impact was insignificant. Accordingly, diluted loss per share equals basic loss per share. The total number of potential common shares excluded from the calculation of diluted loss per share for the three months ended March 31, 2004 was 1,316,625.
| 5. | Income Taxes |
As the ultimate realization of the potential benefits of the Company’s net operating loss carryforwards is considered unlikely by management, the Company has offset the deferred tax assets attributable to those potential benefits through valuation allowances and, accordingly, the
Table of Contents
Company did not recognize any benefit for income taxes in the accompanying condensed statements of operations to offset its pre-tax losses.
| 6. | Stock-Based Compensation |
As explained in Note 10 in the Form 10-KSB, the Company accounts for stock options granted to employees based on their intrinsic values under the recognition and measurement principles of APB Opinion No. 25, “Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees, and Related Interpretations,” and has adopted the disclosure-only provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 123, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation,” and the provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 148 “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation – Transition and Disclosure-an Amendment of FASB Statement No. 123.” Since the exercise price of all of the options granted by the Company to its employees has been equal to or greater than fair value, the Company has not recognized any earned or unearned compensation costs in its financial statements in connection with those options. The Company’s historical net income (loss) per share and pro forma net income (loss) per share for the three months ended March 31, 2004, and March 31, 2003, assuming compensation cost had been determined based on the fair value of all options at the respective dates of grant determined using a pricing model consistent with the provisions of SFAS 123 are set forth below:

| 7. | Ryer Enterprises, LLC Forbearance Agreement |
During the three months ended March 31, 2004, the Company agreed to forbear the February and March installment payments due from Ryer Enterprises in exchange for a two (2) month extension of the installment payments plus an additional installment payment of $4,600. Subsequent to March 31, 2004, the Company has received payments for the April and May 2004 installments due from Ryer Enterprises.
Table of Contents
Except for the historical information contained herein, the discussion in this report contains forward-looking statements that involve certain risks and uncertainties. The Company’s actual results could differ materially from those discussed in this report. Factors that could cause or contribute to such differences include, but are not limited to, those discussed below and in the Company’sForm 10-KSB for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2003.
OVERVIEW
Since Planet Polymer Technologies, Inc. (“Planet” or the “Company”) was founded in 1991 substantially all of the Company’s resources have been devoted to the development and commercialization of its technologies and products. This has included the expenditure of funds to develop the Company’s corporate infrastructure and support the Company’s research and development of products, marketing, licensing of products to third parties and corporate administration. For the three month period ended March 31, 2004 the Company did not engage in any research and development and did not incur any employee expense.
Planet had an accumulated deficit as of March 31, 2004 of approximately $14.5 million. The Company’s only anticipated source of revenues is from royalties from BASF, Alltech, and Ryer Enterprises, LLC, which are not expected to be sufficient to result in a net profit through December 31, 2004.
Previously, the company had capitalized $121,602 costs associated with the acquisition of Allergy Free, LLC (See Note 3). As the transaction progressed, it became evident that Allergy Free, LLC, was the accounting acquirer in the transaction and accordingly the Company’s costs of the transaction should have been expensed as incurred rather than capitalized. As a result, the accompanying condensed financial statements have been restated to expense the costs of the transaction. The previously reported net loss and net loss per share for the three months ended March 31, 2004, have been changed as follows:
| Net loss, as previously reported | $ | 2,445 | ||
| Adjustment to expense costs of transaction | 121,602 | |||
| Net loss, as restated | $ | 124,047 | ||
| Net loss per share, as previously report | $ | 0.00 | ||
| Net loss per share, restated | $ | 0.02 |
RESULT OF OPERATIONS
The net loss for the three months ended March 31, 2004, was $124,047 compared to a net income of $722 for the three month period ended March 31, 2003. The Company’s revenues decreased to $57,444 for the three months ended March 31, 2004 from $155,620 for the same period in 2003. This decrease is a result of the Company having received a one time payment of $130,000 in license revenue from Agway, Inc. in the first quarter of 2003 and the Company incurring higher legal expenses and costs for the three months ended March 31, 2004, due to the pending merger agreement with Allergy Free, LLC.
Table of Contents
Effective January 15, 2004, Agway entered into an agreement to sell all of the assets of its FreshSeal® business, which include the fruit/produce patent rights assigned by the Company, to BASF. Also, in January 2004, Agway sold all of its right and interest to Optigen® to Alltech. Management cannot assure that the Company will receive significant, if any, royalties and monies under these Sale and Licensing Agreements. The Company is hopeful BASF and Alltech will continue to commercialize the intellectual property and provide future royalty revenue streams to the Company.
In April 2003 the Company recovered the assets sold to Ryer Industries, LLC, and by agreement dated as of May 1, 2003, resold the assets to Ryer Enterprises, LLC (“Ryer Enterprises”), a newly formed entity which intends to continue the commercial employment of the AQUAMIM® products. Pursuant to said agreement, the Company has licensed to Ryer Enterprises, the patent rights relating to the AQUAMIM® products for royalties which are payable monthly forty-five days after the close of each month for 8 years after which Planet has agreed to transfer the patents to Ryer Enterprises, provided it is not in default. Subsequent to December 31, 2003, the Company agreed to forbear the February and March royalty payment from Ryer Enterprises in exchange for a two (2) month extension to the monthly installment payments plus one additional installment payment of $4,600. Subsequent to March 31, 2004, the Company has received monthly installment payments for April and May 2004, paid for Ryer Enterprises by a third party interested in acquiring the assets and liabilities of Ryer Enterprises, including those rights of Ryer Enterprises to the AQUAMIM® products.
Cost of revenues decreased to $922 for the three months ended March 31, 2004, from $1,221 for the same period in 2003, reflecting the decrease in revenues.
Total operating expenses increased to $182,674 for the three months ended March 31, 2004, from $163,838 for the same period in 2003. This increase was primarily attributable to higher legal expenses and costs incurred in the three months ended March 31, 2004, due to pending merger agreement with Allergy Free, LLC.
Similar to the first quarter of 2003, the Company incurred no research and development expenses. Unless and until the Proposed Acquisition is completed, the Company anticipates limited or no further research and development activities on new products.
Other income, net decreased from approximately $8,940 for the three months ended March 31, 2003, to $1,183 for the same period in 2004, which primarily reflects interest earned on cash balances.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
The Company had net cash provided by operating activities of $12,359 for the three months ended March 31, 2004.
The Company does not believe that its existing sources of liquidity and anticipated revenue will be adequate to satisfy the Company’s projected working capital and other cash requirements through September 2004 to continue operations as a public reporting company without raising additional capital or consummating a merger (see below).
On March 22, 2004, the Company and Allergy Free, LLC (“Allergy Free”) announced that on March 18, 2004, they had entered into an Asset Purchase Agreement (“Agreement”). As subsequently amended, the Agreement provides for the Company to acquire all assets and assume
Table of Contents
certain liabilities of Allergy Free for which Planet will provide the following consideration: a subordinated convertible note in the approximate principal amount of $356,430 bearing interest at 5.5% per annum and due and payable within three (3) years and approximately 26,678,348 shares of common stock of the Company. Additionally, at or near the closing, $2,287,400 of Allergy Free’s investor notes payable and $248,519 of related interest payable will be converted into approximately 50,718,380 shares of common stock of the Company. As a result, after the closing of the Agreement and the conversion of the notes and related interest payable, the members of Allergy Free will own approximately 90% of the voting shares of the Company. Since the members of Allergy Free will receive the majority of the voting shares of the Company, the current president of Allergy Free will become president of the Company and since representatives of Allergy Free will hold three of the five seats on the Company’s Board of Directors, the merger will be accounted for as a reverse acquisition whereby Allergy Free will be the accounting acquirer (legal acquiree) and the Company will be the accounting acquiree (legal acquirer). Investors are encouraged to review, when available, the Company’s Proxy Statement which will be available through EDGAR at www.sec.gov.
If the transaction is completed, immediately prior to the closing, Planet will distribute to a trustee for the benefit of Planet shareholders of record as of April 15, 2004 (“Trust”), the right to receive all royalties payable to Planet pursuant to the Sale and Licensing Agreements between Planet and Agway, Inc., relating to Planet’s FreshSeal® and Optigen® technology and the certain Purchase, Sale and License Agreement between Planet and Ryer Enterprises, LLC, relating to Planet’s AQUAMIM® technology.
ITEM 3. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
The Company’s management, with the participation of the Company’s Chief Executive Officer who is also the Chief Financial Officer, has evaluated the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures as of March 31, 2004. Based on this evaluation, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures are effective for gathering, analyzing and disclosing the information the Company is required to disclose in the reports it files under the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms.
During the fiscal three months ended March 31, 2004, there were no significant changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting that materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.
