CRITICAL CARE, INC. AND SUBSIDIARY
(FORMERLY LASIK AMERICA, INC.)
NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE SIX MONTHS ENDED JANUARY 31, 2005
Note 1: ORGANIZATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
- ----------------------------------------------------------
The financial statements in this report have been prepared by Critical Care, Inc
without audit, pursuant to the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission
for quarterly reports on Form 10-QSB and do not include all of the information
and note disclosures required by accounting principles generally accepted in the
United States of America for annual financial statements. These financial
statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes
thereto for the year ended July 31, 2004, included in the Company's form 10-KSB
filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on November 15, 2004.
In the opinion of management, information included in this report reflects all
adjustments, consisting of normal, recurring adjustments, necessary for fair
presentation of results for these interim periods.
The results of operation for the six months period ended January 31, 2005, are
not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the entire fiscal
year ending July 31, 2005
Critical Care, Inc. (the Company) was incorporated in the State of Nevada on
March 21, 2001. The Company operates an ophthalmic laser vision correction
center in Albuquerque, New Mexico. On October 26, 2004 the Company formally
changed its name from Lasik America, Inc. to Critical Care, Inc. The Company
contracted the services of consultants to assist in the expansion of the its
operations by either developing or acquiring a group of dialysis clinics in
Italy.
Principles of Consolidation
- ---------------------------
The consolidated financial statement include the accounts of the Company and its
wholly owned inactive subsidiary. All significance inter-company transaction and
the balances have been eliminated upon consolidation.
Use of Estimates
- ----------------
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles
generally accepted in the United States of America require management to make
estimates and assumptions that effect the reported amounts of revenues and
expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those
estimates.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
- --------------------------------
The Financial Accounting Standards Board has recently issued several Statements
of Financial Accounting Standards.
In December 2004, the FASB issued FASB Statement No. 123 (revised 2004),
"Share-Based Payment" ("FAS 123(R)"). FAS 123(R) replaces FASB Statement No.
123, "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation", and supersedes APB Opinion No.
25, "Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees". FAS 123(R) requires that the
compensation cost relating to share-based payment transactions be recognized in
the financial statements. That cost will be measured based on the fair value of
the equity or liability instruments issued. The provisions of this Statement are
effective for the first interim or annual reporting period that begins after
December 15, 2005. The Company is currently evaluating the method of adoption
and the impact of FAS 123(R) on its financial position and results of
operations.
7
The Company does not expect that the adoption of these pronouncements will have
a material effect on the Company's financial position or results of operations.
NOTE 2: GOING CONCERN
- ---------------------
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the
Company will continue as a going concern. The Company had a net loss of
$1,581,902 for the six months ended January 31, 2005, a working capital
deficiency of $929,279, and a shareholders' deficiency of $977,070 as of January
31, 2005 which raises substantial doubts about its ability to continue as a
going concern. The financial statements do not include adjustments that might
result from the outcome of this uncertainty.
Management believes that actions are presently being taken to revise the
Company's operating and financial requirements in order to improve the Company's
financial position and operating results. However, given the levels of its cash
resources and working capital deficiency, anticipated cash to be generated by
operation will be insufficient to meet anticipated cash requirements for
operation, working capital, and capital expenditures during the fiscal year
2005. Therefore, the Company is seeking additional equity or debt financing, but
there can be no assurance that sufficient additional financing will be
available.
NOTE 3: LONG-TERM DEBT
- ----------------------
Long-term debt consists of the following as of January 31, 2005 and July 31,
2004:
January 31, July 31,

The Company's former CEO had entered into a loan
agreement with the Estate of Rohan for the
acquisition of an excimer laser used in the
operations of the Company. During the year ended
July 31, 2004, the Company acquired the item and
the purchase price of the equipment was included
in accounts payable due to the former CEO as of
July 31, 2004. Upon the resignation of the former
CEO, the loan was assumed by the Company. The loan
bears an interest at 8% per annum. Unpaid interest
on the loan as of January 31, 2005 was $8,000
which is included in accrued expenses. $ 200,000 $ --
The former CEO made non-interest bearing loans to
the Company thru a series of cash advances in
fiscal years 2002, 2003 and 2004. The Internal
Revenue Service's applicable federal rate (AFR)
was used to compute the interest expense. 76,984 80,985

to an upgrade of laser equipment with net book
value of $28,442 and 41,570 at January 31, 2005
and July 31, 2004 respectively. See Note 8 51,640 51,640

NOTE 4: SHAREHOLDERS' EQUITY
- ----------------------------
On October 29, 2004, the Company issued 100,000 shares of common stock to a
Director of the Company, for certain services beyond his responsibilities as a
Director that were provided to the Company. (See Note 7 for stock based
compensation to outside consultants).
On November 11, 2004, the Company issued 50,000 shares of common stock for legal
services.
NOTE 5: COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
- -------------------------------------
Delinquent Payroll and Gross Receipts Taxes
- -------------------------------------------
The Company is delinquent on employment taxes payable to the Internal Revenue
Service and on gross receipts taxes payable to the State of New Mexico. The
Liability for these taxes has been shown on the balance sheet as of January 31,
2005. The Company has negotiated with the Internal Revenue Service and the State
of New Mexico to establish payment plans and expects to payoff the entire amount
of taxes owed. As of July 31, 2004 the Internal Revenue Service filed a lien
against all the assets of the Company related to these delinquent payroll taxes.
Litigation
- ----------
On March 31, 2003, a former employee of the Company filed a complaint that she
was fired as an employee inspite of an employment contract that she had with the
Company. The Company has responded to the complaint stating that she violated
her contract through non-performance and dishonesty. (See subsequent event at
note 8).
NOTE 6: ACQUISITION OF SUBSIDIARY
- ---------------------------------
On August 5, 2004, the Company consummated its merger with Salus Holding, Inc.
("Salus"). Pursuant to the merger agreement, the shareholders of Salus was
issued 2,000,000 shares of common stock of the Company. The sole shareholder of
Salus, Homeland Security Technology, Inc., received 2,000,000 shares of the
Company's Common Stock having a fair value of $360,000 that approximated 43.7
percent of the then outstanding shares of the Company calculated on a fully
diluted basis at the date of issuance.
Salus was the sole shareholder in Icon Salus S.r.l.("Icon Salus"), a company
formed under the laws of Italy. Salus was constructing a dialysis facility in
Amaseno, Italy. Following the Company's acquisition of Salus, the Company
experienced difficulties in the development of the Amaseno Clinic and was unable
to obtain the requisite permits and licenses from the Italian government,
provincial and local. Thus on October 31, 2004, the Company abandoned the
development of the Amaseno Clinic and recorded a $360,000 loss on this
investment.

NOTE 7: STOCK BASED COMPENSATION
- --------------------------------
On October 12, 2004, the Company issued 5,000,000 shares of common stock to five
(5) consultants pursuant to a consulting agreement with each of the consultants.
The shares were granted pursuant to the Company's Share Option Plan. The basis
of the valuation for the consulting agreements was $0.22, the fair market value
of the common stock.
NOTE 8: SUBSEQUENT EVENTS
- -------------------------
On February 9, 2005, the Capital lease was restructured in the amount of $55,400
payable in 11 consecutive monthly installments of $4,616.67 plus interest
beginning February 20, 2005.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
---------------------------------------------------------------
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
---------------------
The following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with our
financial statements and the notes thereto appearing elsewhere in this report.
This report contains statements that constitute forward-looking statements
within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995.
Forward-looking statements can be identified by the use of forward-looking
terminology, such as "may", "will", "should", "expect", "anticipate",
"estimate", "project", "continue", "plans", "intends" or other similar
terminology. We caution you that forward-looking statements are not guarantees
of future performance and involve risks and uncertainties, and that actual
results may differ materially from the statements that constitute
forward-looking statements as a result of various factors.
Overview
We are a medical services company that focuses on delivering laser vision
correction surgical procedures to consumers. Our affiliated and employed doctors
provide medical care to our clients and we provide the necessary equipment,
technical staff, administrative services and the excimer laser, needed for the
delivery of laser eye surgery to our clients. We do not practice medicine,
rather our affiliated and employed doctors deliver medical care and treatment to
eye surgery patients.
10
We were incorporated on March 21, 2001 as LASIK America, Inc. In October 1995
and in March 1996, the United States Food and Drug Administration approved the
use of excimer lasers manufactured by Summit Technology, Inc. and VISX, Inc., to
treat low to moderate nearsightedness. In May 2001, we opened our first excimer
laser center in Albuquerque, New Mexico. On October 26, 2004 we formally changed
our name from Lasik America, Inc. to Critical Care, Inc.
Our doctors perform laser vision correction surgery procedures in our New Mexico
center office. We provide our ophthalmologist and optometrist with
state-of-the-art equipment and facilities as well as support services necessary
to perform vision correction procedures. At present we have one employed
ophthalmologist and one employed optometrist in our center. Although we have no
written agreements with these doctors, we have agreed to compensate our
ophthalmic surgeon at a rate of $125.00 per eye and our optometrist at $800 per
day.
Our doctors perform surgery on clients at our center, which includes delivery of
pre and post-operative care. Our doctors also perform surgery on clients at our
center where co-managing optometrists perform the pre and post-operative care.
To date, the supply of our VISX excimer laser and related equipment has come
through agreements that we have entered into with DVI Financial, Inc. and a
patent license with VISX, Incorporated. The Company also owns and operates a
Nidek laser. In the event that we would not be able to obtain additional excimer
lasers and related equipment from these providers, we believe that other
satisfactory sources of supply are available now that the FDA has approved
additional manufacturers of excimer lasers.
Our plan of operation
We believe that our New Mexico center now in operation can sustain its current
operations on current revenue and what we believe will be increased usage of our
center by new clients generated from our advertising and marketing efforts, as
well as general client awareness of the laser vision correction procedure. At
current levels, we are generating a net loss from operations. With current
revenues, we have experienced a continuing increase in the number of surgical
procedures performed in our center primarily, by advertising locally and through
the placement of kiosks in local shopping malls where high pedestrian traffic
exists. Our New Mexico center has the capacity to perform approximately 100 eye
surgery procedures each week and at present, we are performing approximately 20
eye surgeries each week.
We currently generate on average approximately $ 75,000 per month in gross
revenue and believe that we will require approximately $900,000 in gross revenue
during the next 12 months to maintain our existing operations. We believe that
our cash requirements during the next 12 months will be satisfied through a
private offering of our equity or debt securities.
On August 5, 2004, a subsidiary of the Company, Lasik Acquisition Corp.,
consummated its merger with Salus Holding, Inc. ("Salus"). Pursuant to the
merger agreement, the shareholders of Salus have been issued 2,000,000 shares of
common stock of the Company. The sole shareholder of Salus, Homeland Security
Technology, Inc., was issued 2,000,000 shares of Critical's Common Stock that
approximated 43.7 percent of the outstanding shares of Critical calculated on a
fully diluted basis at the date of issuance.
Salus was the sole shareholder in Icon Salus S.r.l.("Icon Salus"), a company
formed under the laws of Italy. Salus was constructing a dialysis facility in
Amaseno, Italy. Following the Company's acquisition of Salus, the Company
experienced difficulties in the development of the Amaseno Clinic and was unable
11
to obtain the requisite permits and licenses from the Italian government,
provincial and local. Thus on October 31, 2004, the Company abandoned the
development of the Amaseno Clinic. On or about November 2005, Homeland Security
Technology, Inc. transferred the 2,000,000 shares of Critical Common Stock to
Ernest Remo, Chief Executive Officer and Chairman of the Board of Critical,
pursuant to a settlement agreement in connection with a promissory note by
Homeland Security Technology, Inc. in favor of Mr. Remo.
On October 28, 2004, the Company entered into an agreement to purchase certain
rights to acquire a group of five dialysis clinics from Icon Veneto Srl, an
Italian company, pursuant to a rights purchase agreement. The rights purchased
consist of a binding letter of intent assigned to the Company pursuant to the
agreement. Pursuant to the rights purchase agreement the Company issued to Icon
Veneto 100,000 shares of preferred stock of the Company. The preferred stock was
convertible into 10,000,000 shares of common stock of the Company. The five
dialysis clinics which are the subject of the rights purchase agreement had
established revenues of over Euro 4,000,000 (US$5,250,000). On February 1, 2005,
the Company and Icon Veneto entered into a settlement agreement whereby the
rights purchase agreement was terminated ab initio, as if it never existed, as a
result of a dispute between Icon Veneto and the Company with respect to
representations of Icon Veneto with respect to the rights. Consequently, the
Company Preferred Stock issued to Icon Veneto was cancelled.
Management continues to believe that expanding into the dialysis business will
offer the Company a greater opportunity for growth and long term success.
Management believes that there is a worldwide growth in kidney disease worldwide
which creates a great and continually increasing demand for dialysis services.
Management has determined that the dialysis business offers greater return on
investment than the Lasik business. Thus the Company is currently seeking other
opportunities to expand into this business.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS FOR THE THREE MONTHS ENDED JANUARY 31, 2005 AS COMPARED TO

Results of operations
- ---------------------
Revenues
We derive our revenues directly from the number of laser vision surgical
procedures performed at our center. Procedures performed by our affiliated
doctor generate revenue to us from the physician, who collects a fee from the
12
patient. Procedures performed by our employed doctor generate revenue directly
to us from the patient. Revenues for the three months ended January 31, 2005
totaled $235,553 as compared to $245,937 for the three months ended January 31,
2004. Total revenue is predicated on the number of procedures of laser vision
correction we performed during the period.
Operating Costs

Liquidity and capital resources
Since our inception, we have financed our operations through revenues and
capital raised through the sale of our common stock. In order to effectuate our
business plan as structured we will need to raise significant capital from
external sources. In addition, we intend on raising capital internally through
the increase in the number of procedures we perform. We currently do not have a
credit facility or any commitments for additional financing. If we are unable to
obtain adequate financing from internal or external sources we may be unable to
fully implement our business plan and may be forced to modify our operations.

2004. Net cash (used in) investing activities was ($12,570) for the six months
ended January 31, 2005. Net cash flows (used in) financing activities of
($18,520) in the six months ended January 31, 2005 as compared to ($1,533) for
the six months ended January 31, 2004.
Management believes that actions are presently being taken to revise the
Company's operating and financial requirements in order to improve the Company's
financial position and operating results. However, given the levels of its cash
resources and working capital deficiency at July 31, 2005, anticipated cash to
be generated by operations will be insufficient to meet anticipated cash
requirements for operations, working capital, and capital expenditures during
the fiscal year 2005. Therefore, the Company is seeking additional equity or
debt financing, but there can be no assurance that sufficient additional
financing will be available.
Delinquent Payroll and Gross Receipts Taxes
The Company is delinquent on employment taxes payable to the Internal Revenue
Service an on gross receipts taxes payable to the State of New Mexico. The
Liability for these taxes has been shown on the balance sheet as of January 31,
2005. The Company has negotiated with the Internal Revenue Service and the State
of New Mexico to establish payment plans and expects to payoff the entire amount
of taxes owed. As of July 31, 2004 the Internal Revenue Service filed a lien
against all the assets of the Company related to these delinquent payroll taxes.
Recently issued accounting standards
In December 2004, the FASB issued FASB Statement No. 123 (revised 2004),
"Share-Based Payment" ("FAS 123(R)"). FAS 123(R) replaces FASB Statement No.
123, "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation", and supersedes APB Opinion No.
25, "Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees". FAS 123(R) requires that the
compensation cost relating to share-based payment transactions be recognized in
the financial statements. That cost will be measured based on the fair value of
the equity or liability instruments issued. The provisions of this Statement are
effective for the first interim or annual reporting period that begins after
December 15, 2005. The Company is currently evaluating the provisions of SFAS
No. 123 (R) and has not yet determined the impact, if any, that SFAS No. 123 (R)
will have on its financial statement presentation or disclosure.

a material effect on the Company's financial position or results of operations.
