SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING PRINCIPLES Organization and nature of operations Neptune Industries, Inc. (the Company) is a Florida corporation which conducts business from its headquarters in Boca Raton, Florida. The Company was incorporated on May 8, 1998, and in February 2004 changed its name from Neptune Aquaculture, Inc. to Neptune Industries, Inc. Since that time, the main activities of the Company have been devoted to raising capital, implementing its business plan, commencing operations through its subsidiary, Blue Heron Aqua Farms, LLC, and developing, testing and patenting (pending) S.A.F.E. (Solar-powered, Aquaculture, Finfish Environment) technology. On June 9, 2005, the Company completed a statutory merger with Move Films, Inc. a Texas corporation. Move Films, Inc. was a non-trading, fully reporting public company. The surviving entity remained Neptune Industries, Inc. which assumed the obligation as a full reporting company for SEC purposes as successor to Move Films, Inc. This transaction was accounted for as a reverse merger. or all periods prior to June 30, 2005, periodic reports filed with the SEC were filed as Move Films, Inc., including the Form 10-QSB for the quarterly period ended March 31, 2005. Since Move Films, Inc., was not an active operating company and had no assets or income as of March 31, 2005, comparison of the activity of the Company for the period March 31, 2006 with the reported activities of Move Films, Inc., its predecessor, for the reporting period ended March 31, 2005, is not meaningful and is omitted. The comparative information provided in this report for the period ended March 31, 2005, is for Neptune Industries, Inc. for that period, prior to the merger with Move Films, Inc. Common shares of the Company, continue to be dually listed on the OTC Bulletin Board and on The Pink Sheets under the trading symbol NPDI. Basis of Presentation The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Neptune Industries, Inc. and its wholly-owned subsidiaries, Aquaculture Specialties, Inc. and Exotic Reef Technologies, Inc., and its majority-owned subsidiary, Blue Heron Aqua Farm, LLC (Blue Heron). The Company?s original interest in Blue Heron was 90 percent, with 5 percent held by South Florida Aquaculture, Inc. (in which the Company has a 22 percent interest) and the other 5 percent held by an unrelated party. Sine the acquisition of the 90 percent interest, the Company has contributed more the $15 million in additional capital to Blue Heron, while neither of the minority members has made any contributions, reducing the minority interests in a nominal level. As a result, all inter- company balances and transactions have been eliminated at consolidation and no provision has been made for the minority interests. Neither Aquaculture Specialties, Inc. nor Exotic Reef Technologies, Inc. are actively operating. F-6 NEPTUNE INDUSTRIES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE NINE MONTHS ENDING MARCH 31, 2006 AND 2005 (Unaudited) NOTE 1.	SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING PRINCIPLES (Continued) Interim Financial Statements The accompanying unaudited financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-QSB and Regulation S-B. 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 considered necessary for a fair presentation (consisting of normal recurring accruals) have been included. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and 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. Operating results reported for the nine months ended March 31, 2006 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending June 30, 2006. For further information, refer to the financial statements and footnotes thereto included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-KSB for the year ended June 30, 2005. Cash and Cash Equivalents The company considers all highly liquid investments with a maturity date of three months or less at the time of purchase to be cash equivalents. Property and Equipment Property and equipment consists of equipment, leasehold improvements, office furniture and vehicles which are stated at cost. Depreciation is based on the estimated useful lives of the assets, ranging from five years to fifteen years using the straight-line method. Expenditures for maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred. Major improvements are capitalized. Gains and losses on disposition of property and equipment are included in income as realized. Revenue Recognition Sales revenue is recognized upon the shipment of merchandise to customers or the pick up of merchandise by the customer. Allowances for sales returns are recorded as a component of net sales in the period the allowances are claimed. Income Taxes Income taxes are computed under the provisions of the Financial Accounting F-7 NEPTUNE INDUSTRIES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE NINE MONTHS ENDING MARCH 31, 2006 AND 2005 (Unaudited) NOTE 1.	SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING PRINCIPLES (Continued) Standards Board (FASB) Statement No. 109 (SFAS 109), Accounting for Income Taxes. SFAS 109 is an asset and liability approach that requires the recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of the difference in events that have been recognized in the Company financial statements compared to the tax returns. Fair Value of Financial Instruments Financial instruments, including cash, receivables, accounts payable, and notes payable are carried at amounts which reasonably approximate their fair value due to the short-term nature of these amounts or due to variable rates of interest which are consistent with market rates. Concentrations of Credit Risk and Economic Dependence Financial instruments, which potentially subject the Company to a concentration of credit risk, are cash and cash equivalents and accounts receivable. The Company currently maintains its day-to-day operating cash balances at a single financial institution. At times, cash balances may be in excess of the FDIC insurance limits. At March 31, 2006, the Company did not have cash on deposit exceeding the insured limit. The Company operates domestically and internationally. Consequently, the ability of the Company to collect the amounts due from customers may be affected by economic fluctuations in each of the geographic locations of the customers. Net Loss Per Share Basic net loss per share is computed by dividing net loss attributable to common stockholders by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. Diluted net loss per share takes into consideration shares of common stock outstanding (computed under basic loss per share) and potentially dilutive shares of common stock. In periods where losses are reported, the weighted average number of common shares outstanding excludes common stock equivalents, because their inclusion would be anti- dilutive. Inventory Inventory is stated at the lower of cost (first-in first-out method) or market. The inventory consists of seafood, feed, chemicals, and overhead costs, such as utilities. Overhead is allocated to inventory based on the number of pounds of fish included in ending inventory. Inventory on March 31, 2006(unaudited): Seafood $ 300,691 Feed 11,969 Chemicals & Supplies 6,638 Overhead 91,592 ---------- 		 $ 410,889 F-8 NEPTUNE INDUSTRIES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE NINE MONTHS ENDING MARCH 31, 2006 AND 2005 (Unaudited) NOTE 2. GOING CONCERN 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 reported amounts in the financial statements. Actual results could differ from those estimates and assumptions. The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. The financial position and operating results of the Company raise substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern, as reflected by the accumulated deficit of $4,424,990 as of March 31, 2006, and recurring gross and net losses. The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent upon expanding operations, increasing sales and obtaining additional capital and financing. Managements plan in this regard is to secure additional funds through future equity financings. It is not anticipated that the Company will be able to achieve break even operations during the fiscal year ended June 30, 2006. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary if the Company is unable to continue as a going concern. NOTE 3.

Forward looking statements are statements not based on Historical information and which relate to future operations, strategies, financial results or other developments. Forward looking statements are necessarily based upon estimates and assumptions that are inherently subject to significant business, economic and competitive uncertainties and contingencies, many of which are beyond our control and many of which, with respect to future business decisions, are subject to change. These uncertainties and contingencies can affect actual results and could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed in any forward looking statements made by, or on behalf of, our Company. We disclaim any obligation to update forward looking statements. Neptune Industries, Inc., (the Company) was incorporated in the State of Florida on May 8, 1998. We operate on a June 30 fiscal year. Our common shares are traded on the Pink Sheets and on the OTC Bulletin Board under the symbol NPDI. Since our inception, we have been engaged in aquaculture (fish farming) through our subsidiary, Blue Heron Aqua Farms, LLC, in Florida City, Florida and in the development of new technologies for aquaculture and related marine uses. Our mission is to become a leading supplier of sustainable seafood products through the development of a vertically integrated production and distribution enterprise, encompassing fish farms, processing facilities, wholesale distribution, and value-added product lines. The catalyst to our business model is the patent-pending S.A.F.E. (Solar-powered, Aquaculture, Finfish Environment) technology. S.A.F.E. provides a highly efficient, environmentally friendly solution to current seafood production requirements, while opening up new areas of the world to commercial farming. The Company has already received interest from around the world to license, purchase, and distribute the technology. Licensing, sales and joint venture activities will further expedite and enhance our business model. The final strategic phase of our mission involves the utilization of our publicly traded vehicle to conduct a roll-up of the highly fragmented aquaculture and distribution industries. The acquisition of other seafood related businesses should allow us to expand, diversify, and integrate our technology in the most efficient manner. The founders of the Company, Messrs. Ernest D. Papadoyianis and X.T. (Sal) Cherch began designing and testing what today is known as the S.A.F.E. System more than 8 years ago. The S.A.F.E. system is designed to address and resolve the concerns of environmentalists. Today, through a contractual arrangement, Neptune has spent over 6 years and more than $3 million in completing the development of the S.A.F.E. system, perfecting production methods, performing market analyses, acquiring lease sites, and creating a cornerstone production facility through our subsidiary, Blue Heron Aqua Farms, LLC. Blue Heron operates a forty-eight acre fish farm in Florida City, Florida that incorporates a one-of-a-kind, flow-through environment which is virtually extinct in the U.S. today. In October, 2004, we completed a state of the art nursery expansion in order to increase production capacity of our sashimi quality hybrid striped bass (branded as Everglades Striped Bass) by over 25 percent. The market for all seafood, particularly fresh farm-raised product, has grown to tremendous proportions, warranting immediate and extensive expansion of production and diversification to other popular species. With only four acres of the forty-eight acre site under production at this time, we will be able to substantially increase production as additional acreage is added to the production capability. Currently, we distribute our products primarily through wholesale distributors who pick up the fresh fish at our Florida City, Florida fish farm and distribute the product nationwide. In addition, some local Florida customers pick up the product themselves at the farm site. We do not currently distribute any product ourselves, although our business plan is to expand our capabilities into processing, distribution and value added products. Prior to the formation of Blue Heron, our founders continued their prior efforts toward exploiting a unique and abundant resource in South Florida. Massive, yet pristine quarry lakes spread throughout the state and provide an ideal environment for fish production. Management focused its efforts on further research and development of the various components of the S.A.F.E. system technology, while fine tuning production methods for use in quarry lake aqua farms. Among the many technological developments tested during this period was a solar powered programmable, automated, feeding system which allows controlled amounts of feed to be distributed at specific times of the day. This insures a more rapid growth rate, with less waste than other common productions methods in the industry. Through the development and operation of three previous pilot farms, we improved our technology, and production techniques to effectuate the efficient and economical production of seafood in large, open bodies of water. The applications now extend to an open worldwide market. In addition, we successfully raised and marketed three commercially viable species (hybrid striped bass, redfish and tilapia). Our farm purchases fingerling fish, raises the product to market size (1.25-2+ lbs), then harvests and distributes it to wholesalers, processors, market chains, etc. throughout the U.S., Canada, and the Caribbean. Management believes that our unique, low-cost production strategy, technology, and existing distribution allow us to bring our products to market faster and cheaper than our competition. DEVELOPMENT STRATEGY With a strong distribution network for our fresh farm raised seafood products throughout the United States, Canada and the Caribbean, we are now focused on a three phase expansion program at our Florida City site in order to meet market demand. In addition, we have moved into the final stages of preparation for the commercial production of the S.A.F.E. System. We also plan to integrate our operations by locating and attempting to acquire our own distribution network, as well as processing capabilities and nursery operations to raise and control our own fingerling production. Farming Operations We are poised to expand our facilities, diversify our production, and vertically integrate our operations. We are planning to increase capacity to produce over two million pounds of hybrid striped bass, redfish, tilapia, Nile perch and other species; operate the only hybrid striped bass nursery in South Florida; and then utilize our effluent wastewater to produce a diversity of hydroponic vegetables and herbs. The combination of our commercial aquaculture expertise, management and technology, teamed with the expansive forty-eight acre fish farm facility, have created one of the premier commercial aquaculture operations on the East Coast and perhaps the U.S. In addition to the Florida City site, we have identified and have had preliminary discussions for lease options on a number of prime quarry lake sites in South Florida. Historically, management has focused its production and technology on developing these vast man-made impoundments which are abundant development. Quarry sites will be developed utilizing S.A.F.E. System technology which was designed and engineered from years of practical experience in commercial production in South Florida quarries. Quarry lake development presents an ideal opportunity to establish multiple farm locations with minimal capital outlay for infrastructure and lease payments. The Company has identified three phases for the expansion of its Florida City, Florida site during the next 12 months. Management proposes to utilize approximately $600,000 of the proceeds of a planned private offering of its common stock on physical improvements, equipment, and working capital to expand the Blue Heron South Farm in the first of the three phases of development. Approximately two acres of the South Farm site of six acres, have been designated for a Phase I expansion. Management intends to utilize this area for hybrid striped bass grow-out production. The successive addition of over thirty, above-ground circular tanks should provide an additional 400,000 pounds per year of production. Capital investment for this Phase I, two acre parcel development of the South Farm has been estimated at $600,000. Following the completion of this expansion, management intends to embark on the successive renovation of the remaining four acres of the South Farm site (Phases II and III). The capital investment for this expansion has been estimated at $1,000,000, and would result in an additional 700,000 to 1,000,000 pounds of production per year. In April 2006, the Company retained Dawson James Securities and began an offer of $2 million in convertible debentures and warrants to acquire additional common shares under a private offering. See, Part II, Item 5. Other Information. Any offer or sale of a unit, if made, will be made only pursuant to the private offering memorandum prepared by the Company, and only to accredited investors. There can be no assurance that the offering will be successful, or that the Company will be able to raise the additional capital needed to continue and expand its operations. Technology The S.A.F.E. System incorporates many features which make it suitable for use in all parts of the world. The Company continues to be deluged with inquiries. The S.A.F.E. System is a floating, articulating, patent pending containment system which utilizes alternative energy to power many of its components. The system can be utilized as a stand alone single tank (an Eco- Tank) in a variety of sizes or several tanks can be interconnected into Eco- pods. In an Eco-pod configuration, each tank is connected to another via an underwater conveyance pipe. This allows the operator to move fish from tank to tank with out removing them from the water, or handling. Therefore, an Eco-pod system actually becomes a self contained nursery and grow-out area. An automated solar powered feeding system and a revolutionary waste collection system insure rapid growth without contamination of surrounding waters. Since each tank has solid sides, predators cannot get in, crops cannot escape, and in the event of contamination of surrounding waters, the crops can be isolated and protected. Other Areas of Development Our development plans expand far beyond our South Florida production base. Management has identified several acquisition candidates that would allow immediate production benefit and secure the hybrid striped bass hatchery operations. The Company also intends to diversify its operations to include marine products such as baitfish for the multi-million dollar sport fishing market; production of hydroponic herbs and vegetables; wholesale distribution and live delivery (hybrid striped bass and tilapia) to the Asian and Latin markets; value added products; and franchise/joint venturing of our S.A.F.E. System technology. Whether land or lake based operations, the Company strategic South Florida location with its twelve month growing season, tremendous local market, and a select niche market for live products, provides a significant advantage over competitors. A focus on products limited in the wild, or by seasonality, further increases market value and demand. In late July, 2005, we entered into an arrangement with The Redland Company, Inc. of Homestead, Florida to utilize Redlands 38 acre quarry lake site for testing of the S.A.F.E. System prototype. This site is close to our current Florida City operations and provides an ideal environment for these final tests. In addition to testing our own technology, we will also be selecting and testing several other products which will be used in conjunction with S.A.F.E. Site preparation is fully underway with excavation, new electricity, fencing, and storage units nearing completion. The new prototype tank has been delivered, and will be assembled and launched as soon as the security fencing has been completed. Hurricane Wilma on October 24, 2005, caused significant delays in the availability of both labor and materials for all contractor jobs and we have been unable to progress with this project as a result. Comparison of Operating Results Gross revenues for the quarter and nine months ended March 31, 2006 were $124,918 and $295,732, respectively, compared to $169,885 and $425,542 respectively for the quarter and nine months ended March 31, 2005, reductions largely the result of the loss of sales due to Hurricane Wilma. The total loss from operations for the quarter and nine months ended March 31, 2006 was $(338,837) and $ (832,917), respectively compared to losses of $(160,114) and $(283,358) for the quarter and nine months ended March 31, 2005, respectively. This current year to date loss was largely attributable to the reduction in sales revenue as a result of hurricanes in 2005. Operating expenses were $163,335 and $140,567 for the quarters ended March 31, 2006 and 2005, respectively, and $445,551 and $366,378 for the nine months ended March 31, 2006 and 2005, respectively. Cost of sales for the quarter ended March 31, 2006 was $275,677, compared to $187,433 for the same period in 2005. The total increase in cost of sales and operating expenses for the quarter ended March 31, 2006 over the comparable prior quarter was due primarily to an increase in payroll costs, increased inventory costs and utilities, and to increased costs for investor relations and for professional fees due to our status as a reporting public company as of June 30, 2005. The increases for the nine month periods ended March 31, 2006 over 2005 were attributable to comparable items. Item 3. Controls and Procedures. Our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer (the Certifying Officers) are responsible for establishing and maintaining disclosure controls and procedures and internal controls and procedures for financial reporting for the Company. The Certifying Officers have designed such disclosure controls and procedures and internal controls and procedures for financial reporting to ensure that material information is made known to them, particularly during the period in which this report was prepared. The Certifying Officers have evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures and internal controls and procedures for financial reporting as of March 31, 2006, and believe that our disclosure controls and procedures and internal controls and procedures for financial reporting are effective based on the required evaluation. There have been no significant changes in internal controls or in other factors that could significantly affect internal controls subsequent to the date of their evaluation, including any corrective actions with regard to significant deficiencies and material weaknesses.
