For further information, refer to the Consolidated Financial Statements and footnotes included in the Annual Report on Form 10-KSB of Donlar Biosyntrex Corporation (the "Company") for the year ended December 31, 2001. In management's opinion, the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments except as discussed below, which the Company considers necessary for a fair presentation of the results for the period. Operating results for the period presented are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the entire year. The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As of March 31, 2002, the Company had an accumulated deficit of $94,485,250, a shareholders' deficit of $34,555,608 and has had substantial recurring losses. The consolidated operations of the Company have not achieved profitability and the Company has relied upon financing from the sale of its equity securities, liquidation of assets and debt financing to satisfy its obligations. These conditions raise substantial doubt about the ability of the Company to continue as a going concern. The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of these uncertainties. The Company's ability to continue as a going concern is subject to the attainment of profitable operations or obtaining necessary funding from outside sources. Management's plan with respect to this uncertainty includes reorganizing the Company and converting debt to equity, increasing sales of existing products to attempt to maintain a positive cash flow, evaluating new products and markets, and minimizing overhead and other costs. However, there can be no assurance that management will be successful. EQUITY TRANSACTIONS In January 2001, the Company's parent, Donlar Corporation ("Donlar"), sold 1,500,000 shares of its common stock to an investor for $714,593. Since November 3, 2000, the financial statements of the Company include the activity of both the Company and Donlar. Accordingly, for accounting purposes, the issuance of these shares have been treated as a Company transaction. In January 2001, the Company entered into an agreement with a media relations firm. This agreement was for a period of one year. The Company issued the firm a warrant to 6 purchase 1,250,000 shares of the Company's common stock at an exercise price of $0.01 per share. This warrant could only be exercised if, in the Company's discretion, the media relations firm satisfied its obligations under the agreement. This agreement and the warrant were cancelled in April 2001 when the Company entered into a new agreement effective January 20, 2001 with the same media relations firm. The term of the new agreement was one year and the Company issued 500,000 shares of its common stock to the media relations firm in connection with the execution of the agreement. The Company recorded $468,750 of general and administrative expenses which is the fair value of the stock issued. Additionally, the Company issued the media relations firm 750,000 shares of its common stock which are being held in an escrow account by the media relations firm until satisfaction of the terms of the agreement. The fair value of these 750,000 shares were recorded as deferred compensation in the amount of $703,125. This amount was amortized over one year, the life of the agreement, as adjusted for changes in fair value over the term of the agreement. The Company believes that the conditions for the release of the 750,000 shares to the media relations firm from escrow were not satisfied and the Company has requested return of the shares. In March 2001, an investment advisor exercised a warrant to purchase 400,000 shares of the Company's common stock for $0.01 a share, pursuant to its August 2000 agreement with the Company. On March 4, 2002, the Company issued 2,000,000 shares of its common stock to the same investment advisor in full satisfaction of the Company's obligations to make cash payments to the investment advisor under an agreement. On January 29, 2002, the Company issued a total of 1,000,000 shares of its common stock to two investor relations firms as payment for services rendered pursuant to agreements with these firms. DEBT TRANSACTIONS In the first quarter of 2002, the Company and Donlar began implementing a plan which is intended to significantly restructure their collective debt and capital structures in order to eliminate a substantial portion of their debt and to ultimately result in the merger of the two companies (the "Restructuring Plan"). The Restructuring Plan is scheduled to be completed in July 2002. As part of the Restructuring Plan, on March 18, 2002, the Company and Donlar entered into a Bridge and Consolidated Term Loan Agreement with Tennessee Farmers Life Insurance Company (the "Loan Agreement"). Pursuant to the terms of the Loan Agreement, the Company and Donlar obtained a bridge loan facility in the amount of approximately $2.1 million to be used to refinance certain short term debt, provide working capital, pay certain accounts payable creditors and pay expenses of the transaction. In addition, the terms of existing loans to Donlar in the original principal amount of approximately $17.64 million were restated and made the joint and several obligation of Donlar and the Company in the total amount of $19.2 million, reflecting the 7 original amount of the loans and accrued, unpaid interest thereon (the "Restated Loans"). Each of the loans is secured by substantially all of the assets of the Company and Donlar. Loans under the bridge loan facility bear interest at a rate of eleven percent (11%) per annum with one half of such interest payable on a quarterly basis on the last business day of March, June, September and December and the other half payable at maturity on March 18, 2003. The Restated Loans are divided into two loans. The first such loan is in the principal amount of approximately $10.18 million, bears interest at a rate of nine percent (9%) per annum until March 18, 2003, at which time such interest is payable, and thereafter bears interest at eleven percent (11%) per annum payable on a quarterly basis on the last business day of March, June, September and December. The principal balance of the loan is payable in equal quarterly installments of not less than $222,500 commencing on March 31, 2003 and thereafter on the last business day of March, June, September and December. Any remaining unpaid principal and interest is payable on March 31, 2007. The second such loan is in the principal amount of $9.0 million, bears interest at a rate of one percent (1%) per annum, but neither interest nor principal are payable until the first to occur of one of certain events described in the Loan Agreement, the latest of which is March 18, 2005, after which time the interest that has accrued is payable in full within thirty (30) days and thereafter is payable quarterly on the last business day of March, June, September and December together with principal payments of not less than $222,500. Any remaining unpaid principal and interest is payable on March 31, 2007. As a condition of the loans and as part of the Restructuring Plan, the Company and Donlar have agreed to use their best efforts to merge the Company into Donlar on or before July 7, 2002 (the "Merger"). In the Merger, each share of the Company's common stock other than shares owned by Donlar will be exchanged for approximately 0.26 shares of Donlar's common stock. As a result of the Merger and related transactions described herein, the Company's shareholders (other than Donlar) will collectively receive approximately 4.04 million shares of Donlar's common stock representing approximately 19.44% of the shares of common stock outstanding following the Merger and approximately 4.32% of the shares of common stock on a fully diluted basis. The shares of the Company's common stock owned by Donlar will be cancelled. The Merger requires the approval of a majority of the respective shareholders of the Company and Donlar. The Company and Donlar also made numerous representations, warranties and covenants in the Loan Agreement. Among the covenants, the Company and Donlar agreed to limit their ability to incur additional indebtedness, make any investments or loans, pay dividends, purchase, redeem or issue capital stock or sell or encumber assets. In addition, the Company and Donlar agreed to sell or discontinue the Company's nutritional and nutraceuticals business on or before March 18, 2003. There can be no assurance that the Company and Donlar will be able to comply with the covenants and events of default in the Loan Agreement, some of which events of default 8 are entirely beyond their respective control. Each of the loans made or restated pursuant to the Loan Agreement is subject to acceleration and the application of higher default rates of interest in the event the Company or Donlar defaults in the payment of principal or interest when due, breaches any covenants contained in the Loan Agreement that are not remedied within five (5) calendar days or any other specified event of default occurs. Each of the loans is convertible at the option of the holder at any time prior to repayment into common stock of the Company and, subsequent to the Merger, into common stock of Donlar. Loans made under the bridge loan facility convert into Donlar's post-Merger common stock at a rate of one share per $0.29 of outstanding principal amount of the loans. The Restated Loans convert into Donlar's post-Merger common stock at a rate of one share per $0.68 of outstanding principal amount of the loans. The conversion rates are subject to antidilution protection. The holders of the loans have certain registration rights with respect to the shares issuable upon conversion. In the first quarter of 2002, Donlar also reached agreements with Willis Stein and Partners, L.P. and Star Polymers, L.L.C. (collectively the "Willis Stein Group") to (i) exchange $9.0 million of original principal amount of notes plus accrued interest for shares of a new series of senior convertible preferred stock with a stated liquidation value of $9.0 million and convertible into approximately 13.23 million shares of Donlar's post-Merger common stock and (ii) exchange all of the equity securities held by the Willis Stein Group in Donlar for 1.0 million shares of Donlar's post-Merger common stock. The foregoing exchanges are subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions precedent, including completion of the Merger. The Willis Stein Group also agreed to vote its shares of voting stock of Donlar in favor of the Merger. Donlar also reached agreement in the first quarter of 2002 with Dr. Robert Gale Martin ("Martin"), a director of Donlar and the Company, to (i) exchange approximately $9.9 million of original principal amount of notes plus accrued interest for shares of senior convertible preferred stock in the face amount of $9.0 million and convertible into approximately 13.23 million shares of Donlar's post-Merger common stock, (ii) relinquish rights to receive royalty payments from Donlar or the Company and all of his equity securities in Donlar in exchange for 5.0 million shares of Donlar's post-Merger common stock and (iii) surrender for cancellation any warrants to purchase shares of Donlar stock for a warrant to purchase 3.0 million shares of Donlar's post-Merger common stock at an exercise price of $0.68 per share. Martin also agreed to vote his shares of voting stock of Donlar in favor of the Merger. To further eliminate debt from the Company's balance sheet, Donlar is seeking the agreement of the holders of approximately $1.9 million of original principal amount of notes to exchange their notes for shares of senior convertible preferred stock in the face amount of approximately $1.9 million and convertible into approximately 2.8 million shares of Donlar's post-Merger common stock. To date, Donlar has reached agreement with the holders of $1,617,000 of such notes. 9 The bridge loan and the Restated Loans were effective on March 18, 2002 and the following describes the accounting treatment of the common stock conversion features in these loans. In the first quarter of 2002, the Company recorded a debt conversion expense of $289,655 in connection with the foregoing transactions. This debt conversion expense was incurred as a result of the exercise price for converting the bridge loan into common stock of $0.29 per share being below the market price of the Company's common stock as of the date of the Loan Agreement, which was $0.33 per share. The Restated Loans are convertible at a rate of $0.68 per share into post-Merger common stock of Donlar. The Restated Loans meet the criteria for new debt. Because there are no induced conversion features associated with the transaction, no beneficial conversion expense was recorded. ITEM 2 - Management's Discussion and Analysis or Plan of Operation Forward Looking Statements This report and the documents incorporated by reference in this report contain forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements are based on management's current expectations, estimates and projections about the Company's industry, management's beliefs and certain assumptions made by the Company. These statements are not guarantees of future performance and are subject to certain risks, uncertainties and assumptions that are difficult to predict. Therefore, the Company's actual results could differ materially from those expressed or forecasted in any forward-looking statements as a result of a variety of factors. The Company undertakes no obligation to update publicly any forward-looking statements for any reason, even if new information becomes available or other events occur in the future. Results of Operations Comparison of the three months ended March 31, 2002 with the three months ended March 31, 2001. During the three months ended March 31, 2002, the Company had revenues of $877,684, compared to $605,773 for the comparable three-month period in 2001. The increase in revenues was due to growth in sales of the Company's products, principally in the oil field market. Cost of revenues was $857,987 for the three months ended March 31, 2002, compared to $785,690 for the same period in 2001. This increase in cost of revenues is related to increased sales offset by decreased staff in the manufacturing area, as well as other cost reductions at the Company's manufacturing facility in Peru, Illinois. 10 Operating expenses were $1,769,379 for the three-month period ended March 31, 2002, compared to $2,721,979 for the three month period ended March 31, 2001. This decrease is due to decreased staff, as well as other cost reductions related to consulting, outside research products, professional fees and travel expenses. Interest expense decreased from $2,713,375 for the first three months of 2001 to $1,367,275 for the first three months of 2002. This decrease was due to a decrease in the amortization of debt discount. During the three months ended March 31, 2002, the Company had a net loss of $3,664,942 compared to a net loss of $4,820,647 for the three months ended March 31, 2001. This decrease in the net loss was attributable primarily to the decrease in interest expense and increased sales offset by the acceleration of debt discount amortization related to the debt restructuring. Liquidity and Capital Resources Historically, the Company has been unable to finance its operations from cash flows from operating activities. During the first quarter of 2002, the Company had a net increase in cash and cash equivalents of $72,792, compared to a net decrease in cash and cash equivalents in the first quarter of 2001 of $871,333. The Company intends to carefully control its use of cash for the balance of 2002. As a long-term matter, the Company will require additional financing to maintain operations. PART II OTHER INFORMATION ITEM 2 - Changes in Securities In February 2002, the Company issued a total of 1,000,000 shares of its common stock to two investor relations firms as payment for services the two firms have provided. On March 4, 2002, the Company issued 2,000,000 shares of its common stock to an investment advisor in full satisfaction of the Company's obligations to make cash payments to the investment advisor under an agreement.
