NOTE A - BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND ACCOUNTING POLICIES The accompanying interim unaudited condensed financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States for interim financial information and pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Accordingly, 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 the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Operating results for the three-month period ended December 31, 2005 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending September 30, 2006. For further information, refer to the financial statements for the year ended September 30, 2005 and the notes thereto included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-KSB. The balance sheet at September 30, 2005 has been derived from the Company's year-end audited financial statements but does not include all of the information and footnotes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States for complete financial statements. The Company has historically used existing cash and readily available marketable securities balances to fund operating losses and capital expenditures. The Company raised these funds in 1997 through 2000 through the sale of Preferred Stock issuances and proceeds from the exercise of certain stock options and warrants. During the first quarter of fiscal 2006, we raised $112,000 through the sale of 165,446 shares to Dutchess Private Equities Fund, LLP. STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION ------------------------- The Company accounts for employee stock option grants in accordance with Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees and related interpretations (APB 25), and has adopted the "disclosure only" alternative described in Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 123, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation, amended by SFAS No. 148 Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation-Transition and Disclosure. SFAS No. 123, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation, requires pro forma information regarding net income (loss) using compensation that would have been incurred if the Company had accounted for its employee stock options under the fair value method of that statement. During the three months ended December 31, 2005 and 2004, the Company granted options to purchase 50,000 shares and 35,000 shares to a consultant, and 310,000 shares and 235,000 shares to directors, officers and employees, respectively. The fair value of 50,000 and 35,000 options were valued at $18,000 and $8,000, respectively. The fair value of 310,000 and 235,000 options were valued at $111,000 and $39,000, respectively. These options were valued in accordance with SFAS and the fair values were estimated using Black-Scholes option pricing method with the following assumptions: For The Three Months Ended December 31, 2005 December 31, 2004 ----------------- ----------------- Risk free interest rate 4.47% 4.23% Stock volatility factor 37% 33% Weighted average expected option life: 10 years.

Basic loss per share is calculated using the net loss divided by the weighted average common shares outstanding. Shares from the assumed conversion of outstanding warrants, options and the effect of the conversion of the Class A Preferred Stock and Class B Preferred Stock are omitted from the computations of diluted loss per share because the effect would be anti-dilutive. NOTE B - OTHER AGREEMENTS On February 25, 2004, we entered into an Investment Agreement with Dutchess Private Equities Fund. That agreement provides that, following notice to Dutchess, we may sell to Dutchess up to $5 million in shares of our Common Stock for a purchase price equal to 95% of the average of the three lowest closing bid prices on the Over-the-Counter Bulletin Board of our Common Stock during the five day period following that notice. The number of shares that we are permitted to sell pursuant to the Investment Agreement is either: (A) two hundred percent of the average daily volume of our Common Stock for the ten trading days prior to the applicable sale notice, multiplied by the average of the three daily closing best bid prices immediately preceding the day we issue the notice, or (B) $25,000; provided that in no event will the sale be more than $1,000,000 with respect to any single sale. Dutchess' obligation to purchase our Common Stock is contingent upon certain closing conditions. Such conditions relate to the Investment Agreement and include: (i) that our representations and warranties are true and correct as of the funding date, (ii) that we have performed all of our covenants, agreements and conditions required to be performed by us, (iii) that trading of our Common Stock has not been suspended, (iv) that no statute, rule, regulation, executive order, decree, ruling or injunction is in force against the transactions contemplated in the Investment Agreement, (v) that no pending or threatened litigation exists, and (vi) that the SEC has declared effective a registration statement covering the shares to be purchased by Dutchess. ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OR PLAN OF OPERATION. SAFE HARBOR FOR FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS ---------------------------------------------- This Report on Form 10-QSB contains forward-looking statements, including, without limitation, statements concerning our possible or assumed future results of operations. These statements are preceded by, followed by or include the words "believes," "could," "expects," "intends," "anticipates," or similar expressions. Our actual results could differ materially from those anticipated in the forward-looking statements for many reasons including, but not limited to, product and service demand and acceptance, changes in technology, ability to raise capital, the availability of appropriate acquisition candidates and/or business partnerships, economic conditions, the impact of competition and pricing, capacity and supply constraints or difficulties, government regulation and other risks described in this report. Although we believe the expectations reflected in the forward-looking statements are reasonable, they relate only to events as of the date on which the statements are made, and our future results, levels of activity, performance or achievements may not meet these expectations. We do not intend to update any of the forward-looking statements after the date of this document to conform these statements to actual results or to changes in our expectations, except as required by law. OVERVIEW -------- Our traditional core business is providing remote ECG (electrocardiogram) interpretation services to medical facilities that may not have access either to trained physicians that can interpret ECG results or to self-interpreting ECG equipment. Our customers are typically correctional facilities, ambulatory surgery centers, occupational health clinics and physician offices. Although self-interpreting ECG equipment is widely available, many of our customers like the optional feature of automatically sending their ECG results to one of our cardiologists for an overread when the results are abnormal. This overread feature is a key advantage that enables us to market our services in segments of the market where physicians may not be available on a routine basis. We are evaluating new opportunities for our ECG business; however, we could lose customers who choose to receive services from a competitor or who purchase a self-interpretive machine and no longer need our ECG interpretations. If we were to lose existing customers, they may be difficult to replace, and that could have a material adverse impact on our operations and financial condition. Our other business is the development and marketing of medical imaging software tools that automatically make accurate and precise measurements to diagnose bone disease. Our target markets for these products are hospitals, imaging centers and orthopedic office practices. Our initial product, the OsteoGram(R), is an automated system for the rapid screening, diagnosis and monitoring of osteoporosis, a disease that affects more than 200 million people worldwide. Osteoporosis is a "silent disease" that costs the U.S. healthcare system over $17 billion annually contrasted to the $6 billion spent annually on breast cancer. Fifty percent of all women will suffer an osteoporosis-related fracture in their lifetime, and Medicare is currently scrutinizing methods to lower the costs of fighting this largely preventable disease through point-of-care testing of "at risk" patients through an initiative named HEDIS. We believe that convenient, low-cost methods of screening and diagnosing will become increasingly desirable as hospitals comply with recent initiatives directing them to test for and treat this insidious disease. The OsteoGram(R) was originally marketed as a film-based product that utilized a standard hand x-ray film that is digitized on a desktop scanner. The image is then analyzed on a personal computer by means of the patented OsteoGram(R) software. This system is still marketed to small hospitals, clinics and physician's offices. In June of 2004, we began marketing a DICOM (Digital Imaging and Communications in Medicine) version of the OsteoGram(R) software. The DICOM OsteoGram(R) was developed to take advantage of the growing market for digital, or filmless, x-ray equipment. DICOM is the information standard that allows digital imaging equipment to interconnect, enabling clinicians to readily move, archive and retrieve images and diagnostic information over networks. By residing on the workstations of these advanced digital systems, the OsteoGram(R) software can automatically capture and analyze images directly from either the x-ray equipment or the network. We license our DICOM OsteoGram(R) software to manufacturers of digital x-ray and network equipment to place at the point-of-sale. In addition, we enlist dedicated imaging distributors to sell our products in the after sale market. 7 During the quarter ending December 31, 2005, we signed an important licensing agreement with FUJIFILM Medical Systems, USA (Div. Fuji Photo Film Co., Ltd.) that enables FUJIFILM Medical Systems USA, Inc. (Fuji) to integrate CompuMed's proprietary OsteoGram(R) osteoporosis screening software with its market-leading computed radiography (CR) systems. Under the terms of the five year agreement, Fuji will place an initial order for 10 OsteoGram(R) systems and then license and distribute the OsteoGram(R) on existing and new CR systems, as well as future mammography platforms in the United States. Fuji has the largest installed base of CR systems in the U.S. and currently markets its products through a direct sales organization and a nationwide network of imaging distributors. We expect Fuji to launch our bundled solution at their national sales meeting in early April. OsteoGram(R)-enhanced Fuji CR systems were showcased at the 91st Scientific Assembly and Annual Meeting of the Radiological Society of North America (RSNA) in Chicago (November 27-December 2). In addition, the OsteoGram(R) was featured in the exhibits of Swissray International and the Kodak Health Group, division of the Eastman Kodak Company. We also amended and expanded our previous software licensing agreement with Orex Computed Radiography, Inc. The agreement provides for the use of our OsteoGram(R) osteoporosis screening software with Orex's distributed computed radiography scanners. Under the amendment, our agreement with Orex has been extended for a five-year period. On March 3, 2005, Orex became a wholly owned subsidiary of the Eastman Kodak Company, and the expanded terms of the new agreement include sales of our OsteoGram(R) systems on Kodak's computed radiography (CR) scanners. The amended agreement with Orex also includes an upfront purchase and minimum purchase obligations, which are to increase annually over the five-year contract period. We also attended Medica, the world's largest all medical trade show held annually in D sseldorf, Germany. The OsteoGram(R) was displayed in the exhibit of our German distributor that launched the product locally. Reference sites are now being established, and we hope that German sales efforts will commence in the first quarter of 2006, coinciding with the launch in Italy. RESULTS OF OPERATIONS FOR THE QUARTER ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2005 COMPARED TO THE -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- QUARTER ENDED DECEMBER 2004. ------------------------------- Revenues from ECG operations decreased by 26% for the first quarter of fiscal 2006 to $494,000 from $669,000 in fiscal 2005, due to a one-time sale of new ECG equipment sold to New York Department of Corrections in fiscal 2005. Revenues from the OsteoGram(R) sales and services for the first quarter of fiscal 2006 increased by 1,863% to $157,000 from $8,000 in fiscal 2005 mainly due to an order from OREX Computed Radiography. Cost of services and goods sold consists of the costs of ECG services provided, supplies, electrocardiograph equipment sold and OsteoGram(R) systems sold. Costs of services of ECG for the first quarter of fiscal 2006 increased by 4% to $144,000 from $138,000 in fiscal 2005, due to increases in overread services and travel expenses related to the software upgrade of the ECG equipment sold to New York Department of Corrections last fiscal year. Cost of goods sold of ECG for the first quarter of fiscal 2006 decreased by 81% to $42,000 from $221,000 for the same period of fiscal 2005, primarily due to decreased ECG equipment sales. The cost of goods sold for OsteoGram(R) for the first quarter of fiscal 2006 increased by 200% to $3,000 from $1,000 in fiscal 2005, due to increased OsteoGram systems sales. Selling expenses for the first quarter of fiscal 2006 increased by 54% to $105,000 from $68,000 in fiscal 2005, due to the hiring of the Vice President Sales for the OsteoGram business. General and administrative expenses for the first quarter of fiscal 2006 increased to $307,000 from $274,000 in fiscal 2005, due to the accrued expense related to the issuance of the restricted shares to the investor relations firm Porter LeVay and Rose, Inc. Research and development costs for the first quarter of fiscal 2006 increased by 58% to $98,000 from $62,000 in fiscal 2005, due to the hiring of the Vice President of Engineering. Interest income and dividends for the first quarter of fiscal 2006 increased by 400% to $30,000 from $6,000 in fiscal 2005, due to increased investments in marketable securities. Other miscellaneous income for the first quarter of fiscal 2006 was none compared to $8,000 in fiscal 2005, due to a reversal of a reserve related to operating business expenses. Interest expense for the first quarter of fiscal 2006 increased by 150% to $5,000 from $2,000, due to increased financing of ECG equipment. Net loss for the first quarter of fiscal 2006 decreased by 56% to $41,000 from $93,000 in fiscal 2005, mainly due to higher sales in the OsteoGram(R) business. 8 FINANCIAL CONDITION, LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES --------------------------------------------------------- At December 31, 2005, we had approximately $500,000 in cash and marketable securities, as compared to a balance of $571,000 at September 30, 2005, a net decrease of $71,000 primarily due to cash used to increase staffing. There were no purchases of property, plant, and equipment during the first quarter of 2006 and $3,000 for the same period in fiscal 2005. We have historically used existing cash and readily available marketable securities balances to fund operating losses and capital expenditures. We also raise funds through the sale of Common and Preferred stock issuances and proceeds from the exercise of stock options and warrants. CAPITAL COMMITMENTS We lease our corporate offices at a monthly rental of $11,822 per month with 3% annual increase. We entered into a long-term agreement with John McLaughlin effective November 2, 2002 through September 30, 2004. This agreement provides a base salary of $150,000 per year and a bonus up to $150,000 based on performance factors including revenue, profit and accomplishment of certain key milestones. In addition, Mr. McLaughlin received standard employee options to purchase 50,000 shares of Common Stock at an exercise price of $0.20 per share upon acceptance of the agreement . On September 24, 2004, the Board passed a resolution to extend this contract for an additional year to 2005. On September 9, 2005 the Board passed a resolution to continue Mr. McLaughlin at a monthly salary of $14,500 starting October 1, 2005. Each of our Directors receives an annual Board of Directors fee of $12,000, which is paid to each Director in equal monthly installments. The Chairman receives an additional $4,800. In addition to the Board of Directors fee, Directors receive an additional $1,000 per meeting and when they serve as a member of the Executive, Audit or Compensation Committee. Such amount is reduced to $350 if the committee meeting is held by teleconference or on the same day as a board meeting. FINANCING ACTIVITIES On February 25, 2004, we entered into an Investment Agreement with Dutchess Private Equities Fund. That agreement provides that, following notice to Dutchess, we may sell to Dutchess up to $5 million in shares of our Common Stock for a purchase price equal to 95% of the average of the three lowest closing bid prices on the Over-the-Counter Bulletin Board of our Common Stock during the five day period following that notice. The number of shares that are permitted to sell pursuant to the Investment Agreement is either: (A) two hundred percent of the average daily volume of our Common Stock for the ten trading days prior to the applicable sale notice, multiplied by the average of the three daily closing best bid prices immediately preceding the day we issue the notice, or (B) $25,000; provided that in no event will the sale be more than $1,000,000 with respect to any single sale. Dutchess' obligation to purchase our Common Stock is contingent upon certain closing conditions. Such conditions relate to the Investment Agreement and include: (i) that our representations and warranties are true and correct as of the funding date, (ii) that we have performed all of our covenants, agreements and conditions required to be performed by us, (iii) that trading of our Common Stock has not been suspended, (iv) that no statute, rule, regulation, executive order, decree, ruling or injunction is in force against the transactions contemplated in the Investment Agreement, (v) that no pending or threatened litigation exists, and (vi) that the SEC has declared effective a registration statement covering the shares to be purchased by Dutchess. During the three months ended December 31, 2005, we sold 165,446 shares of Common Stock to Dutchess Private Equities Fund at an average of $0.68 per share. The gross proceeds were $112,000. PLAN OF OPERATIONS -------------------- Our business strategy includes an increase in OsteoGram(R) revenue through sales to manufactures of digital x-ray equipment and through sales via domestic and international distributors. We intend to finance this business strategy by using our current working capital resources and cash flows from existing operations, including the ECG and OsteoGram(R) businesses. There can be no assurance that the ECG and OsteoGram(R) sales will be sufficient to offset related expenses. We anticipate that our cash flow from operations, available cash, and marketable securities will be sufficient to meet our anticipated cash requirements for at least the next 12 months. However, in certain circumstances we may need to raise additional capital in the future, which might not be available on reasonable terms or at all. If we raise additional capital, we will likely utilize a portion of the $5,000,000 available through the Investment Agreement with Dutchess Private Equities Fund. Failure to raise capital when needed could adversely impact our business, operating results, and liquidity. If additional funds are raised through the issuance of equity or convertible securities, the percentage of ownership of existing stockholders will be reduced. Furthermore, some equity and convertible securities might have rights, preferences or privileges senior to our Common Stock. Our Common Stock is currently traded on the over-the-counter bulletin board, which makes it more difficult to raise funds through the issuance of equity or convertible securities because our Common Stock is thinly traded and those who wish to sell shares of our Common Stock may have difficulty locating buyers. Additional sources of financing may not be available on acceptable terms, if at all. We intend to pursue additional research and/or sub-contractor agreements relating to our development projects. Additionally, we may seek partners and acquisition candidates of businesses that are complementary to our own. Such investments would be subject to our obtaining financing through issuance of debt or other securities. Acquisitions could be dilutive to stockholders. 9 MATERIAL TRENDS AND UNCERTAINITIES ------------------------------------- The rate of progress in commercializing the DICOM (digital) OsteoGram accelerated at the end of the first quarter of fiscal 2006, mainly due to an order from Orex Computed Radiography. We expect this trend to pick-up in the third quarter of fiscal 2006 as Fuji Medical USA launches the OsteoGram product. CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES ------------------------------ Our discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations, including the discussion on liquidity and capital resources, are based upon our financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. The preparation of these financial statements requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. On an ongoing basis, we re-evaluate our estimates and judgments, particularly those related to the determination of the estimated recoverable amounts of trade accounts receivable, impairment of long-lived assets, revenue recognition and deferred tax assets. We believe the following critical accounting policies require our more significant judgment and estimates used in the preparation of the financial statements. We maintain an allowance for doubtful accounts for estimated losses that may arise if any of our customers are unable to make required payments. Management specifically analyzes the age of customer balances, historical bad debt experience, customer credit-worthiness, and changes in customer payment terms when making estimates of the uncollectability of our trade accounts receivable balances. If we determine that the financial conditions of any of our customers deteriorated, whether due to customer specific or general economic issues, increases in the allowance may be made. Accounts receivable are written off when all collection attempts have failed. We have a significant amount of property, equipment and intangible assets, including patents. In accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards, or SFAS, No. 144, Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long Lived Assets, we review our long-lived assets and certain identifiable intangibles for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset or asset group may not be recoverable. Recoverability of long-lived and amortizable intangible assets to be held and used is measured by a comparison of the carrying amount of an asset to the undiscounted future operating cash flows expected to be generated by the asset. If these assets are considered to be impaired, the impairment to be recognized is measured by the amount by which the carrying value of the assets exceeds their fair value. We follow the provisions of Staff Accounting Bulletin, or SAB 101, "Revenue Recognition in Financial Statements", for revenue recognition. Under SAB 101, four conditions must be met before revenue can be recognized: (i) there is persuasive evidence that an arrangement exists, (ii) delivery has occurred or service has been rendered, (iii) the price is fixed or determinable and (iv) collection is reasonably assured. In December 2003, the SEC issued Staff Accounting Bulletin SAB No. 104, "Revenue Recognition", which revises and rescinds certain sections of SAB No. 101, "Revenue Recognition", in order to make this interpretive guidance consistent with current authoritative accounting and auditing guidance and SEC rules and regulations. The changes noted in SAB No. 104 did not have a material effect on our results of operations, financial position or cash flows. ITEM 3. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES. EVALUATION OF DISCLOSURE CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES Our management evaluated, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Principal Chief Financial Officer, the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-QSB. Based on this evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures are effective to ensure that information we are required to disclose in reports that we file or submit under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (i) is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in Securities and Exchange Commission rules and forms, and (ii) is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Our disclosure controls and procedures are designed to provide reasonable assurance that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management. Our disclosure controls and procedures include components of our internal control over financial reporting. Management's assessment of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting is expressed at the level of reasonable assurance that the control system, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable, but not absolute, assurance that the control system's objectives will be met. CHANGES IN INTERNAL CONTROL OVER FINANCIAL REPORTING There was no change in our internal control over financial reporting during our first quarter of fiscal 2006 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting. 10 LIMITATION ON THE EFFECTIVENESS OF CONTROLS Our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer, does not expect that our disclosure controls and internal controls will prevent all error and all fraud. A control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met. Further, the design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs. Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within the company have been detected. These inherent limitations include the realities that judgments in decision-making can be faulty, and that breakdowns can occur because of simple error or mistake. Additionally, controls can be circumvented by the individual acts of some persons, by collusion of two or more people, or by management override of the control. The design of any system of controls also is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions.
