PART I

ITEM 1. BUSINESS.

Overview

On March 18, 2009, eFoodSafety.com, Inc. changed its name to Nuvilex, Inc. (“Nuvilex” or the “Company”) to reflect its acquisition of Freedom2 Holdings, Inc. and the combination of the businesses of the two companies.  The Company operates independently and through wholly-owned subsidiaries and is dedicated to bringing to market scientifically derived products designed to improve the health and well-being of those who use them. The Company’s current strategy is to focus on developing and marketing products that it believes have the potential for rapid sales growth in large market segments.

Share Exchange Agreement (Freedom2 Holdings, Inc. Acquisition)

On January 12, 2009, the Company entered into a share exchange agreement with Freedom2 Holdings, Inc. (“Freedom2”), a privately held company, whereby the Company exchanged 48,205,000 shares of its Common Stock for 100% of the issued and outstanding Common Stock of Freedom2. The exchange of Common Stock between the parties took place on March 2, 2009 and as a result, Freedom2 became a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company. As part of the restructuring resulting from the acquisition, on March 26, 2009 Mrs. Patricia Gruden retired from her positions as the Company’s Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, Mr. Martin Schmieg, President and Chief Executive Officer of Freedom2, was appointed to the positions of Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of the Company, and the Freedom2 management team became the Company’s management team.

History of the Company

The Company was founded as DJH International, Inc., a Nevada corporation on October 28, 1996, and changed its name to eFoodSafety.com, Inc. following its October 16, 2000 acquisition of Global Procurement Systems, Inc. The Company acquired Ozone Safe Food, Inc. for Common Stock on October 29, 2003. The Company’s early mission was to provide methods and products to ensure the safety of marketed fruits and vegetables worldwide. On February 4, 2004, the Company registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission and its Common Stock began publicly trading on the OTC Bulletin Board under the trading symbol EFSF. The Company did not issue shares of Common Stock pursuant to an initial public offering (IPO). With less than projected demand for its produce sterilization methods and software tracking products, the Company changed its strategy and acquired Knock-Out Technologies, Ltd. and MedElite, Inc. in May 2004 and August 2005, respectively.  Knock-Out Technologies, Ltd. is a developer of products using organic, non-toxic food based substances. MedElite, Inc. is the exclusive U.S. distributor of Talsyn TM -CI Scar Cream (“Talsyn”), a topical scar reducing cream. The Company’s new strategy was to bring to market scientifically derived products designed to improve the health and well-being of those who use them.  The Company sold its Ozone Safe Foods operations in August 2005. In November 2006, the Company formed Cinnergen, Inc., a wholly-owned subsidiary, to manufacture and market a non-prescription liquid nutritional supplement designed to promote healthy glucose metabolism, and purEffect, Inc., another wholly-owned subsidiary, to manufacture and market purEffect TM , a four-step non-prescription acne treatment. On March 10, 2006, the Company licensed the marketing rights for purEffect TM to Charlston Kentrist 41 Direct, Inc. (“CK41”). In July 2007, the Company formed I-Boost, Inc., a wholly-owned subsidiary, to manufacture and market a food bar designed to improve the effectiveness of the human immune system. In March 2008, the Company formed Cinnechol, Inc., a wholly-owned subsidiary, to manufacture and market a non-prescription nutritional supplement designed to promote cardiovascular health. In February 2009, the Company sold its remaining rights in the purEffect TM product to CK41 for an equity position in CK41 and future royalty compensation. In March 2009, the Company acquired Freedom2, the manufacturer and marketer of Infinitink®, a permanent tattoo ink designed to be removed more easily using conventional laser removal methods.  On March 18, 2009, the Company changed its name to Nuvilex, Inc.

Current Business of the Company

Nuvilex manufactures, directly or indirectly through independent contractors Cinnergen TM , Cinnechol TM , Infinitink® (and related products), and Talysn TM for sale worldwide.  Sales of I-Boost Immune Bars TM were discontinued in May 2009 as a result of the product’s low sales.

The Company commenced marketing its Last Shot Hangover Remedy product in July 2009 and plans to introduce Prevorex , a diet aid, and its Cyclosurface 3 Ô cosmetics in future quarters.

Nuvilex markets its products both directly and through wholesale and retail distribution partners.  The Company’s retail distribution partners include GNC, The Vitamin Shoppe, Amerimark, CVS, Rite Aid and other regional retail establishments.  As of August 2009, the Company’s retail partnership with Rite-Aid will be discontinued.

The Company is also engaged in the research and development of Oraphyte Ô , a non-toxic, biodegradable nematocide for use on turfgrass and crops as well as Citroxin Ô , a multi-use germicidal composition with anti-viral properties. Nuvilex conducts its research and development activities both through its own internal efforts and through university-based sponsored research contracts. The Company engages seven full or part-time researchers. Oraphyte Ô is being developed in collaboration with Dr. Edward C. McGawley, Nematologist and Professor, Department of Plant Pathology and Crop Physiology, Louisiana State University. Citroxin Ô is being developed in collaboration with Dr. Sagar M. Goyal, Professor of Virology, Department of Veterinary Population Medicine, University of Minnesota.

Nuvilex is headquartered in Cherry Hill, NJ and owns a 22,400 square foot multi-purpose facility, which accommodates office, research and development, manufacturing and warehousing operations.  The Company employs or contracts with 13 full or part-time staff.

Going Concern

The Company's financial statements are prepared using accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAP) applicable to a going concern which contemplates the realization of assets and liquidation of liabilities in the normal course of business. The Company has not yet established an ongoing source of revenues sufficient to cover its operating costs and allow it to continue as a going concern. In addition, as of April 30, 2009, the Company had an accumulated deficit of $29,491,700, had incurred a net loss for the year ended April 30, 2009 of $6,041,624, and had working capital of $262,816. The Company’s current business plan requires additional funding beyond its anticipated cash flows from operations. These and other factors raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern.

Strategy

The Company’s current business plan and strategy involves five elements that the Company believes are key to its success.  Part I of the plan is to improve the marketing and sales efforts of the better performing, existing products and products the Company believes have potential for meaningful sales growth and discontinue the sale of poor performing products.  For example, in April 2009, the Company launched a new Internet based advertising campaign for its Cinnergen Ô product line through dLife.com.  dLife is a leading Internet site for diabetic patients.  In addition, the Company has undertaken a substantial review and adjustment to its pricing strategy.  For example, the Company lowered its retail price for a 32 ounce bottle of Cinnergen Ô from $39.99 to $26.95 and made corresponding adjustments to its wholesale pricing structures in an effort to improve retail outlet sales and better compete against alternative products.  In June 2009, the Company also lowered its retail price for Talsyn Ô from $65.00 to $29.95 as part of its competitive pricing strategy.  In May 2009, the Company discontinued its low revenue producing I-Boost Immune Bar Ô .  The Company will continue to evaluate its marketing, pricing and sales strategies to maximize revenue growth and cash in-flows from its existing product lines.

3


 

Part II includes the design and market release of new products, including the Last Shot Hangover Remedy Ô , Prevorex Ô and the Cyclosurface 3 Ô cosmetics product line.  The Company believes these products meet its strategy of focusing on higher margin products targeting large market segments with rapid growth opportunities.

Part III is a cost containment and expense reduction program, the primary goal of which is to reduce overhead expenses.  One of Company’s largest overhead expenses is the Cherry Hill, New Jersey facility.  The Cherry Hill facility at 22,400 square feet is more than twice the amount of space required by the Company to operate efficiently.  Accordingly, the Company has listed the property for sale or lease.  The estimated fair market value of the property is $1.7 million.

Part IV is the out-license or sale of intellectual property, assets and/or product lines.  The Company is actively engaged in business development discussions for its Oraphyte Ô and Citroxin Ô product lines, which may yield material short term milestone income, future royalties, or product line acquisition income.  

Part V involves the Company securing additional debt or equity funds to finance its inventory production and marketing efforts in support of its sales goals.  

Management believes that its multi-part strategy will strengthen the Company’s position and both the short and long term viability of Nuvilex, Inc.

Nuvilex Products (in alphabetical order)

Cinnechol™

Cinnechol Ô , an ingestible capsule that contains all-natural ingredients, is manufactured and sold by Cinnechol, Inc. (a wholly owned subsidiary of Nuvilex, Inc.). Cinnechol Ô is designed to help maintain normal cholesterol levels and to support normal cardiovascular function. Cinnechol Ô , along with a healthy diet and regular exercise, is intended to serve as a dietary supplement to help individuals manage numerous cardiovascular and metabolic disorders, including dyslipidemia, hypertension, hypoglycemia, and hyperglycemia. Cinnechol Ô contains red yeast rice extract as well as a blend of other ingredients known to improve cardiovascular function (including niacin and gum guggul extract). Cinnechol Ô may provide a natural alternative for those who have high cholesterol and are intolerant of, or elect not to take, drugs that are known as statins.

Cinnergen™

Cinnergen Ô is a liquid whole food nutritional supplement that provides vital nutrients to help the body efficiently process sugar (glucose). Cinnergen Ô helps to prevent conditions associated with pre-diabetes or diabetes such as insulin resistance and fluctuations in blood glucose levels. In addition, Cinnergen Ô may also help the body to more efficiently process fat droplets (lipids) that circulate in blood. One dose (1 fl. oz.) of Cinnergen Ô delivers amino acids (the building blocks of protein), vitamins, minerals, enzymes, antioxidants, and over a dozen all-natural chemicals derived from plants (including cinnamon bark extract, blueberry leaf extract, ginger root extract, and kelp extract) to the body.

Research published in peer-reviewed medical journals suggests that cinnamon bark extract can help to control glucose levels in those who are pre-diabetic or individuals who suffer from type 1 or type 2 diabetes. In addition, studies suggest that two compounds present in blueberry leaf extract—caffeoylquinic acid and caffeic acid—may help to reduce glucose absorption in the small intestine, limit the synthesis of glucose by the liver and kidneys (gluconeogenesis), and speed up the body's metabolism of glucose. Cinnergen Ô contains 0 grams of carbohydrates and fats, has no calories, and does not contain any artificial flavors or sweeteners.

Citroxin™

Citroxin Ô is an all-natural, eco-friendly surface cleaner. Independent laboratory testing of Citroxin Ô showed a 100% kill rate for the "big six" bacterial health threats, including E. coli, Listeria, Pseudomonas, Salmonella, Staphylococcus, Streptococcus, and Black Mold.  Citroxin Ô has also proven to be an effective antiviral composition against swine influenza virus (H1N1 subtype) and avian influenza viruses (H5N1, H9N1 and H9N9) viral subtypes.  

The Company’s viral testing to date has been conducted by Sagar M. Goyal, D.V.M., Ph.D. at the University of Minnesota and the Faculty of Veterinary Science, Chulalongkorn University (Bangkok, Thailand). Citroxin Ô is protected by patents in the United States and worldwide (U.S. 7,439,218 and WIPO 2007/038265 A3).

Cyclesurface 3 ™ Cosmetics

 

Nuvilex’ patent-pending Cyclosurface 3 ™ color enhancement technology brings the formulators and manufacturers of cosmetics and other consumer products the ability to use less wax and other aesthetically detrimental additives in their products. Cyclosurface 3 ™  was developed by Freedom2, Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of Nuvilex, Inc.

The technology is a lipophilic surface treatment that is used to improve the dispersion of pigments in aqueous and organic materials. Cyclosurface 3 ™  technology helps formulators create products that feel lighter and look radiant, all while maintaining or enhancing the color and durability of cosmetic products. Nuvilex intends to be the original equipment manufacturer (OEM) for cosmetic ingredients that use Cyclosurface 3 ™ technology.

I-Boost Immune Bar™

I-Boost Immune Bar Ô is an all-natural nutritional bar designed to protect and build the immune system.  The I-Boost Immune Bar Ô delivers key nutrients that assist in maintaining and building the human immune system and provide energy to keep one going during a busy day.  I-Boost bars contain a proprietary blend of vitamins and minerals that are designed to enhance the body’s natural ability to defend its self.  I-Boost Immune Bars Ô come in four flavors:  Chocolate, Chocolate Mint, Peanut Butter and Oatmeal Cinnamon Raisin.  In connection with the Company’s new business strategy described above, sales of I-Boost Immune Bars were discontinued in May 2009 as a result of the product’s low sales.

Infinitink®

Infinitink®, a permanent yet removable tattoo ink, is engineered specifically for removal. Infinitink Ò is the result of advanced materials science research conducted by physicians and scientists at Duke University, Massachusetts General Hospital, Brown University, and Freedom2. Infinitink Ò is made from ingredients generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for use in drugs and cosmetics (D&C). Infinitink Ò is manufactured under strict guidelines that meet or exceed the most rigorous quality standards in the industry.

Tattoo removal is generally complex and inefficient. To remove a tattoo, the tattoo wearer typically must seek out a health care professional who is certified to operate lasers (often a registered nurse or dermatologist). Typically, lasers that have a wavelength of 532 nm, 755 nm, and 1064 nm are used for tattoo removal. Freedom2 scientists modified the pigments that are used in Infinitink Ò so that the absorption profile of the pigments more closely matches the wavelength of the laser. Infinitink Ò black absorbs laser energy at 1064 nm while Infinitink Ò red absorbs energy at 532 nm. Conventional, permanent tattoo inks do not absorb energy as efficiently from lasers and often require multiple treatments before they are removed from skin. Conventional tattoo inks rarely achieve greater than 85% removal.  An IRB-approved human study confirmed that Infinitink Ò can be more easily removed than other commercially available inks.  On average, participants achieved 90% removal from skin.

As of July 1, 2009, Infinitink Ò black and Infinitink Ò red are available for purchase in the United States, Europe, Australia, and New Zealand.

The technology used to create Infinitink Ò is protected by U.S. patents 6,013,122, 6,800,122, 6,814,760, 6,881,249, 7,175,950, 7,285,364, 7,435,524 and European patent 1,107,724.

Last Shot Hangover Remedy™

Last Shot Hangover Remedy™ (“Last Shot”) is a calorie-free, liquid nutritional supplement that contains a concentrated blend of vitamins, essential amino acids, and other beneficial ingredients. Last Shot is designed to help the body combat symptoms that are associated with alcohol-induced hangovers, including nausea, fatigue and headache. Nuvilex began selling Last Shot to bars and restaurants nationwide as of July 15, 2009. Approximately 35 hangover remedy products are currently sold worldwide, generally through pharmacies. The Company believes that its “at the party” distribution strategy is a market differentiator that provides a competitive advantage and fits with the consequences of excessive alcohol consumption.   

Oraphyte™

Over the past several years, the Company has worked with a variety of leading agricultural programs at U.S. universities, including Louisiana State University, to develop an environmentally-friendly alternative to long-used chemical-based nematocides, many of which have recently been banned by the EPA.

Oraphyte™, the Company’s all-natural nematocide, is a non-toxic, biodegradable proprietary combination of orange terpene oil, Valencia orange oil, hydrogen peroxide, sorbitan monooleate, and distilled water that can be formulated as a liquid or a solid.  The product, which works via a two-step process in which a nematode’s epidermis decomposes, thereby compromising its immune system and leaving it susceptible to the environment or other pests, has demonstrated an ability to minimize and even eradicate nematodes, either pre-plant or post-plant, in turfgrass.

5



Specifically, small concentrations of Oraphyte™ have been shown to statistically significantly reduce nematode community density at harvest by nearly a factor of three compared to the non-treated control. Oraphyte™ also increased the weight of turfgrass that was infested with nematodes by approximately 95% compared to the final weights of nematode-infested turfgrass that did not receive Oraphyte™.  Additionally, the product has been subjected to three separate toxicology tests (the EPA primary dermal irritation test, the EPA primary eye irritation test and the EPA acute oral toxicity test), with all three producing results within normal limits, suggesting that Oraphyte™ poses minimal risk to animals and humans.  Following the success of this trial, the Company plans to optimize concentration levels and will then study Oraphyte™ in additional applications, such as high-value crops (tomatoes, soy beans, etc).

Oraphyte™ has already been registered with the EPA as a germicidal agent and is protected by U.S. Patent 7,439,218. Nuvilex believes that Oraphyte™ can gain EPA approval for use on turfgrass and high-value crops within twelve to forty-eight months, at a total cost of no more than $10 million and $20 million, respectively. The Company is seeking commercial development and marketing partners for Oraphyte™.

Prevorex™

Prevorex™ is a proprietary, sublingual administered liquid dietary supplement designed to help moderately to severely overweight individuals lose weight. Prevorex Ô contains nanoencapsulated ingredients that help regulate blood sugar levels and improve feelings of fullness. Key ingredients include extracts of Garcinia cambogia, green tea, cinnamon bark and blueberry leaf. Hydroxycitric acid and its salt (the primary active ingredient in Garcinia cambogia) is used in traditional medicine in India and is known to reduce the conversion of carbohydrates into lipids (fat). In addition, green tea extract and hydroxycitric acid help individuals to burn more calories, effectively serving as “metabolic boosters” without having the unwanted side effects typically associated with traditional stimulants (such as caffeine or ephedrine). The proprietary nanoencapsulation delivery system is built with naturally occurring vegetable lipids. The ingredients’ small size allows improved absorption into the bloodstream, providing fast acting results.  Unlike many other dietary aids, initial testing has shown that the product works within minutes of being absorbed.

Prevorex Ô , along with an appropriate diet and exercise, is designed to help an individual lose weight in as little as 30 days. The weight control market includes nutritional preparations, prescription drugs, meal replacements, meal and dietary supplements, and weight loss services (such as weight loss surgical procedures and commercial weight programs). The largest companies that have products or services in the weight control market include Abbott Laboratories, Baxter International, Weight Watchers International, Unilever, and Jenny Craig. Nuvilex plans to conduct a clinical study during its second quarter of fiscal 2010 (quarter ending October 31, 2009) that will further investigate the efficacy of Prevorex Ô by measuring how much weight enrolled participants lose during a 90 day period. The Company plans to begin selling Prevorex Ô through distributors who are active in the weight control market (i.e., Jenny Craig, Nutrisystem) during its third quarter of fiscal 2010 (quarter ending January 31, 2010).

purEffect™

purEffect™ is an all-in-one acne treatment solution that is designed to cleanse, tone, and heal the skin. purEffect Ô combines a unique blend of ingredients that work to help maintain a radiant, blemish-free complexion. Benzoyl peroxide, the active ingredient in purEffect Ô , is the safest, most widely recommended ingredient used to treat acne. Benzoyl peroxide serves as an antibacterial compound, minimizes inflammation that is associated with acne, and helps to prevent the formation of new acne deposits beneath the skin.

One kit of purEffect Ô includes a 4 fl. oz. bottle of Purifying Cleanser (Step 1), a 4 fl. oz. bottle of Electrolyte Toner (Step 2), a 2 fl. oz. bottle of Intense Repair Lotion (Step 3), and a 0.5 fl. oz. container of Healing Cream (Step 4). Steps 1 through 3 are to be used in order (once in the morning and once at night) while Step 4 can be used twice daily at any time. Step 4 is also compatible with sunblocks, sunscreens, and other skin creams. The Purifying Cleanser and Intense Repair Lotion each contain 2.5% benzoyl peroxide while the Electrolyte Toner contains ingredients such as Hamamelis virginiana (witch hazel) and glycolic acid that are known to help revitalize the skin. The Healing Cream contains natural oils that are derived from plants and helps to repair skin that is damaged by acne (or acne-associated inflammation).

Talsyn Ô -CI Scar Cream

Talsyn Ô -CI Scar Cream is a unique, fragrant composition that delivers lipids, peptides, and botanical extracts to the skin, including extracts from algae, rosemary, rosehip, and mango. Talsyn Ô -Cl Scar Cream has been clinically proven to improve the appearance of keloids, surgical incisions, and scars and is composed mostly of glycine soja oil (derived from soybeans), aloe vera, and calophyllum oil. Calophyllum oil (tamanu oil), an ingredient derived from trees in the tropics, was revered by ancient Polynesian wound healers for its ability to accelerate healing and improve the appearance of scars. In addition, these all-natural emollients help to keep the skin looking healthy, vibrant, and well hydrated. Talsyn's unique combination of rich, plant-derived ingredients will not damage clothing or stain fabrics. Talsyn Ô -CI Scar Cream is endorsed by leading plastic and reconstructive surgeons across the United States.

Marketing, Sales and Distribution

Nuvilex products are marketed, sold and distributed domestically and internationally either directly by the Company or through third party exclusive and non-exclusive distribution partners. Direct Company to customer sales are made through commissioned sales representatives and direct response Internet sales. The Company maintains domestic and international distributor relationships with third parties it believes can achieve higher market penetration of its various products than by the Company selling directly to its customers. Whether or not these third parties achieve market penetration is based on their commitment to invest in the marketing and sales of the various products, the margin they earn from the sale of these products and market competition. In part, the Company’s future success is dependent upon the efforts of its distribution partners, and their failure to market its products could adversely affect the Company’s business.

Competition

There is intense competition among providers of nutritional supplements, aesthetic skin care treatments and cosmetics products including tattoo inks and related supplies. Many of these competitors have substantially greater financial and marketing resources than Nuvilex, stronger name recognition, brand loyalty and long-standing relationships with target customers. The Company’s future success is dependent upon its ability to compete and its failure to do so could adversely affect the business of the Company.

Government Regulations

The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) regulates dietary supplements under a different set of regulations than those covering "conventional" foods and drug products (prescription and Over-the-Counter). Under the Dietary Supplement Health and Education Act of 1994 (DSHEA), the dietary supplement manufacturer is responsible for ensuring that a dietary supplement is safe before it is marketed. FDA is responsible for taking action against any unsafe dietary supplement product after it reaches the market. Generally, manufacturers do not need to register their products with FDA nor get FDA approval before producing or selling dietary supplements. Manufacturers must make sure that product label information is truthful and not misleading.

FDA's post-marketing responsibilities include monitoring safety (e.g., voluntary dietary supplement adverse event reporting and product information, such as labeling, claims, package inserts, and accompanying literature). The Federal Trade Commission regulates dietary supplement advertising.  

Domestic and foreign facilities that manufacture/process, pack, or hold food for human or animal consumption in the United States are required to register their facility with the FDA.

The FDA's legal authority over cosmetics is different from other products regulated by the agency, such as drugs, biologics, and medical devices. Cosmetic products and ingredients are not subject to FDA premarket approval authority, with the exception of color additives. However, the FDA may pursue enforcement action against violative products, or against firms or individuals who violate the law.

Cosmetic firms are responsible for substantiating the safety of their products and ingredients before marketing. Failure to adequately substantiate the safety of a cosmetic product or its ingredients prior to marketing causes the product to be misbranded unless the following warning statement appears conspicuously on the principal display panel of the product's label:

“Warning --The safety of this product has not been determined.” (21 CFR 740.10)

In addition, regulations prohibit or restrict the use of several ingredients in cosmetic products and require warning statements on the labels of certain types of cosmetics.

In general, except for color additives and those ingredients which are prohibited or restricted from use in cosmetics by regulation, a manufacturer may use any ingredient in the formulation of a cosmetic provided that the ingredient and the finished cosmetic are safe, the product is properly labeled, and the use of the ingredient does not otherwise cause the cosmetic to be adulterated or misbranded under the laws that FDA enforces.

Increased federal, state, local or international regulation over the Company’s products could adversely affect its business, financial condition and results of operations by requiring further testing of products and imposing other or different licensing requirements.

Intellectual Property

Nuvilex considers patent protection to be important to its business. Although the Company takes reasonable measures to protect its intellectual property, the Company cannot guarantee that it will be able to obtain international patent protection for its products abroad

7



or to otherwise protect and enforce its intellectual property. In addition, litigation may be required to enforce the Company’s intellectual property rights, protect its trade secrets, or determine the validity and scope of the proprietary rights of others who practice similar art. Any action taken by the Company to protect its intellectual property rights could consume significant financial and operational resources. In addition, as a result of any such litigation, the Company’s intellectual property could be held to be invalid or unenforceable. If any of the foregoing occurs, the Company’s business, financial condition or results of operations could be harmed.

Nuvilex and its subsidiaries own one trademark and own or co-own 14 issued patents in three technical areas: pigment modification, microencapsulation, and disinfectant or germicidal compositions.

Nuvilex, Inc.

In the second quarter of 2009, the Company filed a provisional patent application on its Cyclosurface 3 ™ technology. Cyclosurface 3 ™  technology can be used to modify the surfaces of pigments (e.g., surface modification or surface functionalization) for cosmetic, personal care, and pharmaceutical applications, including, but not limited to, mascara, hair care products, tattoo inks, medical devices, and pharmaceutical excipients.

Freedom2, Inc.

Sources and Availability of Raw Materials

Cinnergen™ and Last Shot Hangover Remedy™ contain Digezyme™, a proprietary composition that is comprised of five ingredients: amylase, protease, lipase, lactase, and cellulase, which is provided by the Sabinsa Corporation of Piscataway, NJ.

Cinnechol™ contains several phytochemicals that could, at any time in the future, be difficult to obtain in large quantities, including red yeast rice extract, guggul gum extract, Policosanol, and coenzyme Q10 (ubiquinone). The Company currently acquires its Cinnechol™ ingredients from Sabinsa Corporation and Bio-Botanica® of Hauppauge, NY.

Infinitink® contains pigments that are widely available for drugs and cosmetics (D&C) but are widely excluded by manufacturers and suppliers when they are used as components of tattoo inks.

Talsyn™ and purEffect™ contains calophyllum inophyllum oil (tamanu oil), an ingredient that may become difficult to order in bulk at any point in the future.

The Company markets Cinnergen™ through retail distribution partners, including GNC, The Vitamin Shoppe, Amerimark, CVS, Rite Aid and other regional retail establishments. These distribution partners account for greater than 75% of Cinnergen’s™ product sales. As of August 2009, the Company’s retail partnership with Rite-Aid will be discontinued, the net effect of which cannot be determined.

Employees

ITEM 1. RISK FACTORS.

You should carefully consider these factors that may affect future results, together with all of the other information included in this Form 10-K, in evaluating the business and the Company. The risks and uncertainties described below are those that the Company currently believes may materially affect its business and results of operations.  Additional risks and uncertainties that Nuvilex is unaware of or that it currently deems immaterial also may become important factors that affect its business and result of operations.  Nuvilex’ common shares involve a high degree of risk and should be purchased only by investors who can afford a loss of their entire investment.  Prospective investors should carefully consider the following risk factors concerning the Company’s business before making an investment.

In addition, you should carefully consider these risks when you read “forward-looking” statements elsewhere in this Form 10-K.  These are statements that relate to the Company’s expectations for future events and time periods.  Generally, the words “anticipate,” “expect,” “intend,” and similar expressions identify forward-looking statements.  Forward-looking statements involve risks and uncertainties, and future events and circumstances could differ significantly from those anticipated in the forward-looking statements. 

Doubt Regarding Ability to Continue as a Going Concern 

Nuvilex’ financial statements have been presented on the basis that it is and will remain a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business.  The Company had minimal revenues and incurred net operating losses for the period October 1999 (inception) to April 30, 2009. As the Company’s independent auditors have concluded, these factors create an uncertainty about Nuvilex’ ability to continue as a going concern. The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent, among other factors, on its continued success in marketing its products, containing costs, establishing a credit facility, and/or raising additional equity capital.  The financial statements of Nuvilex do not include any adjustments that might be necessary if the Company is unable to continue as a going concern.

Early Revenue Stage Company:  Generation of Revenues

Nuvilex is an early revenue stage company and an investor cannot reasonably determine if the Company will ever be profitable. Nuvilex is likely to continue to experience financial difficulties during its early revenue stage and beyond. The Company may be unable to operate profitably, even if it generates additional revenues.  Nuvilex may not obtain the necessary working capital to continue developing and marketing its products. Furthermore, Nuvilex’ products may not receive sufficient interest to generate revenues or achieve profitability.

Need for Future Capital: Long-Term Viability of Company

Nuvilex will need additional capital to continue its operations.

There can be no assurance that the Company will generate revenues from operations or obtain sufficient capital on acceptable terms, if at all.  Failure to obtain such capital or generate such operating revenues would have an adverse impact on the Company’s financial position, operations and ability to continue as a going concern.   Nuvilex’ operating and capital requirements during the next fiscal year and thereafter will vary based on a number of factors, including the level of sales and marketing activities for its services and products.  There can be no assurance that additional private or public financing, including debt or equity financing, will be available as needed or if available, on terms favorable to the Company.  Any additional equity financing may be dilutive to stockholders and such additional equity securities may have rights, preferences, or privileges that are senior to those of Nuvilex’ existing common stock.

Furthermore, debt financing, if available, will require payment of interest and may involve restrictive covenants that could impose limitations on the flexibility of the Company to operate.  Nuvilex’ failure to successfully obtain additional funding may jeopardize its ability to continue the business and its operations.

If the Company raises additional funds by issuing equity securities, existing stockholders may experience a dilution in their ownership. In addition, as a condition to giving additional funds to the Company, future investors may demand, and be granted, rights superior to those of existing shareholders.

Unpredictability of Future Revenues:  Potential Fluctuations in Operating Results 

As a result of Nuvilex’ limited operating history, the Company is currently unable to accurately forecast its revenues.  Current and future expense levels are based largely on the Company’s marketing and development plans and estimates of future revenues.  Sales and operating results generally depend on the volume and timing of orders and on the Company’s ability to fulfill such orders, both of which are difficult to forecast at this stage.  Nuvilex may be unable to adjust spending in a timely manner to compensate for any unexpected revenue shortfall. Accordingly, any significant shortfall in revenues in relation to planned expenditures could have an immediate adverse effect on the Company’s business, prospects, financial condition and results of operations. Further, as a strategic response to changes in the competitive environment, Nuvilex may from time to time make certain pricing, service or marketing decisions that could have a material adverse effect on its business, prospects, financial condition and results of operations.

Nuvilex may experience significant fluctuations in future operating results due to a variety of factors, many of which are outside the Company’s control.  Factors that may affect operating results include:  (i) ability to obtain and retain customers, attract new customers at a steady rate and maintain customer satisfaction with products, (ii) the announcement or introduction of new services by Nuvilex or its competitors, (iii) price competition, (iv) the level of use and consumer acceptance of its products, (v) the amount and timing of operating costs and capital expenditures relating to expansion of the business, operations and infrastructure, (vi) governmental regulations, and (vii) general economic conditions.

Concentration of ownership of and the rights associated with the Company’s preferred stock gives one of the Company’s shareholders the ability to control all votes of shareholders.

 

One of the Company’s shareholders, Berkshire Capital Management Co., Inc. (“Berkshire”), owns all of the Company’s 10,000 outstanding shares of preferred stock.  Each share of the Company’s preferred stock has the right to 50,000 votes on matters presented for a vote of shareholders.  As a result, that shareholder holds approximately 66.6% of the outstanding voting power of the Company’s capital stock and can determine the outcome of all votes of shareholders, including the election of directors.  Further, holders of the Company’s preferred stock, voting as a class, have the right to elect one member of the Company’s Board of Directors.  As a result of the foregoing, Berkshire can influence management and the operation of the Company’s business by determining the members of the Board of Directors and the outcome of all matters submitted to a vote of shareholders, including the election of directors, amendment of the Company’s charter documents and approval of significant corporate transactions such as a merger or a sale of all or substantially all of the Company’s assets. The interests of this shareholder may conflict with the interests of the Company’s other shareholders with regard to such matters. Furthermore, this concentration of voting control could allow Berkshire to delay, deter or prevent a third party from acquiring control of us at a premium over the then-current market price of the Company’s common stock, which could result in a decrease in the Company’s stock price.

Flaws and Defects in Products

Products offered by Nuvilex may contain undetected flaws or defects when first introduced or as new versions are released. Any inaccuracy or defects may result in adverse product reviews and a loss or delay in market acceptance. There can be no assurance that flaws or defects will not be found in Nuvilex products. Flaws and defects, if found, could have a materially adverse effect upon the business operations and financial condition of the Company. Marketing of any of the Company’s potential products may expose the Company to liability claims resulting from the use of the Company’s products. These claims might be made by consumers, health care providers, sellers of the Company’s products or others. A claim, particularly resulting from a clinical trial, or a product recall could harm the Company’s business, results of operations, financial condition, cash flow and future prospects.

Stock Price Volatility

The market price of the Company’s stock has fluctuated significantly in the past and may continue to fluctuate in the future.  The Company believes that such fluctuations will continue as a result of many factors, including financing plans, future announcements concerning the Company, the Company’s competitors or principal customers regarding financial results or expectations, industry supply or demand dynamics, new product introductions, governmental regulations, the commencement or results of litigation or changes in earnings estimates by analysts.  In addition, in recent years the stock market has experienced significant price and volume fluctuations often for reasons outside the control of the particular companies.  These fluctuations as well as general economic, political and market conditions may have an adverse affect on the market price of the Company’s common stock as well as the price of the Company’s outstanding convertible notes.


10


Worldwide Economic Conditions

The Company’s financial performance depends significantly on worldwide economic conditions and the related impact on levels of consumer spending, which has recently deteriorated significantly in many countries and regions, including the U.S., and may remain depressed for the foreseeable future.  Demand for the Company’s products is adversely affected by negative macroeconomic factors affecting consumer spending.  The severe tightening of consumer credit, low level of consumer liquidity, and extreme volatility in credit and equity markets have weakened consumer confidence and decreased consumer spending.  These and other economic factors have reduced demand for the Company’s products and harmed the Company’s business, financial condition and results of operations, and to the extent such economic conditions continue, they could cause further harm to the Company’s business, financial condition and results of operations.

Dependence on Sales through Retailers and Distributors

The Company’s business depends significantly upon sales through retailers and distributors, and if the Company’s retailers and distributors are not successful, the Company could experience reduced sales, substantial product returns or increased price protection, any of which would negatively impact the Company’s business, financial condition and results of operations.  A significant portion of the Company’s sales are made through retailers, either directly or through distributors.  If the Company’s retailers and distributors are not successful, due to weak consumer retail demand caused by the current worldwide economic downturn, decline in consumer confidence, or other factors, the Company could continue to experience reduced sales as well as substantial product returns or price protection claims, which would harm the Company’s business, financial condition and results of operations.  

Limited Senior Management Personnel:  Management of Potential Growth; New Management Team 

Under Nuvilex’ business plan, it intends to rapidly and significantly expand its operations to address potential growth in its customer base and market opportunities.  This expansion is expected to place a significant strain on the Company’s management, operations and financial resources.

To manage the expected growth of its operations and personnel, the Company may be required to implement new, transaction processing, operating and financial systems, procedures and controls, and to expand, train and manage a growing employee base.  Nuvilex may also deem it prudent to expand its finance, administrative and operations staff.

There can be no assurance that Nuvilex’ planned personnel, systems, procedures and controls will be adequate to support its future operations, that management will be able to hire, train, retain, motivate and manage personnel or that its management will be able to successfully identify, manage and exploit existing and potential market opportunities.  If Nuvilex is unable to manage growth effectively, the Company’s business, prospects, financial condition, results and operations could be materially adversely affected.

Competition

The market in which Nuvilex competes is highly competitive, and the Company has no assurance that it will be able to compete effectively, especially against established industry competitors with significantly greater financial resources. The Company expects to face competition from a few competitors with significantly greater financial resources, well-established brand names and large, existing customer bases. Nuvilex expects the level of competition to intensify in the future.

Dependence on Management

Nuvilex’ performance will be substantially dependent on the continued services and on the performance of the current senior management and other key personnel of the Company. Nuvilex’ performance will also depend on the Company’s ability to retain and motivate its other officers and key employees.  The loss of the services of any of its executive officers or other key employees could have a material adverse effect on Nuvilex’ business, prospects, financial condition and results of operations.  Nuvilex’ future success will depend on its ability to identify, attract, hire, train, retain and motivate other highly skilled technical, managerial, merchandising, marketing and customer service personnel.  Competition for such personnel is intense and there can be no assurance that Nuvilex will be able to successfully attract, assimilate and retain sufficiently qualified personnel. The failure to retain and attract the necessary technical and managerial personnel could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, prospects, financial condition and results of operations. 

11



Nuvilex’ success will be dependent, in large part, on the services of the Company’s principal officers and employees: Martin Schmieg, Christine Solari and Marylew Barnes.  The loss of any of these individuals could have a material adverse effect on Nuvilex’ business or results of operations.  Nuvilex does not maintain “key-man” life insurance policies on the lives of its officers to compensate the Company in the event of their deaths.  Nuvilex currently has employment agreements with Executives Schmieg, Solari and Barnes, and expects to obtain employment agreements with non-compete and confidentiality covenants with any senior officers that it hires.   

Other than for matters requiring shareholder approval, investors in the Company’s common stock will have no voice in the management of Nuvilex, including decisions regarding the operations and marketing of the Company and its products, any future expansion of Nuvilex, and the selection of additional lines of business to enter (unless such matters are put to a shareholder vote).  No person should become a shareholder in the company unless that person is willing to entrust all such investment and operational decisions to management. 

Development of Brand Awareness 

For certain market segments that Nuvilex plans to pursue, the development of its brand awareness is essential for it to reduce its marketing expenditures over time and realize greater benefits from marketing expenditures.  If the Company’s brand-marketing efforts are unsuccessful, growth prospects, financial condition and results of operations would be materially adversely affected. Nuvilex’ brand awareness efforts have required, and will continue to require, incurrence of significant expenses.

Intellectual Property Protection:  Uncertainty of Protection of Proprietary Rights

Nuvilex currently relies on a combination of patents, trademarks, trade secret protection, non-disclosure agreements and licensing arrangements to establish and protect its proprietary rights. Despite efforts to safeguard and maintain Nuvilex’ proprietary rights, there can be no assurance that the Company will be successful in doing so or that its competitors will not independently develop products that are substantially equivalent or superior to Nuvilex’ products.

Nuvilex also relies on trade secrets and proprietary know-how, which the Company seeks to protect by confidentiality and non-disclosure agreements with its employees, consultants, and third parties.  There can be no assurance that these agreements will not be breached, that the Company will have adequate remedies for any breach, or that certain of Nuvilex’ trade secrets and proprietary know-how will not otherwise become known or be discovered by competitors.

Litigation may become necessary to enforce Nuvilex’ intellectual property rights, to protect trade secrets, to determine the validity and scope of the proprietary rights of others, or to defend against claims of infringement or invalidity. Such litigation, whether successful or unsuccessful, could result in substantial costs and diversions of management resources, either of which could have a materially adverse effect on Nuvilex’ business, prospects, financial condition, or operating results.

Availability and Coverage of Insurance

For certain risks, the Company does not maintain insurance coverage because of cost and/or availability. Because the Company retains some portion of its insurable risks, and in some cases self-insures completely, unforeseen or catastrophic losses in excess of insured limits could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial condition and operating results.

Federal, State, Local and Foreign Laws and Regulations

The Company’s past research, product development and manufacturing activities have involved the controlled use of hazardous materials, and the Company may incur significant costs as a result of the need to comply with numerous laws and regulations. The Company is subject to laws and regulations enforced by the FDA, the DEA, the CDHS, foreign health authorities and other regulatory statutes including the Occupational Safety and Health Act, the Environmental Protection Act, the Toxic Substances Control Act, the Food, Drug and Cosmetic Act, the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act, and other current and potential federal, state, local and foreign laws and regulations governing the use, manufacture, storage, handling and disposal of the Company’s products, materials used to develop the Company’s products, and resulting waste products.

12


Penny Stock Regulation

The Company’s securities may be subject to “penny stock rules” that impose additional sales requirements on broker-dealers who sell such securities to persons other than established customers and accredited investors (generally those with assets in excess of $1,000,000 or annual income exceeding $200,000 or $300,000 together with their spouse). For transactions covered by these rules, the broker-dealer must make a special suitability determination for the purchase of such securities and have received the purchaser’s written consent to the transaction prior to the purchase.  Additionally, for any transaction involving a penny stock, unless exempt, the “penny stock rules” require the delivery, prior to the transaction, of a disclosure schedule prescribed by the Securities and Exchange Commission relating to the penny stock market. The broker-dealer also must disclose the commissions payable to both the broker-dealer and the registered representative and current quotations for the securities. Finally, monthly statements must be sent disclosing recent price information on the limited market in penny stocks. Consequently, the “penny stock rules” may restrict the ability of broker-dealers to sell the Company’s securities. The foregoing required penny stock restrictions will not apply to the Company’s common stock if such securities maintain a market price of $5.00 or greater. The market price of the Company’s common stock may not reach or remain at such a level.

Nuvilex anticipates that it will expend significant financial and management resources in its efforts to comply with the internal control attestation provisions of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 beginning with the fiscal year ending April 30, 2010.

Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, and the rules and regulations promulgated there under, requires Nuvilex to have management attest to the adequacy of its internal controls in the Company’s annual report on Form 10-K for the year ending April 30, 2010.  There is a possibility that the Company will be required to make substantial changes to its internal controls in order for management to be able to attest that the Company’s internal controls are effective as of April 30, 2009.  Larger public companies that are currently required to comply with Section 404 have incurred significant monetary and other expenses from diversion of management time and attention, the acquisition of new computer software, the employment of additional personnel and training and third party internal controls consultants.  In light of Nuvilex’s current capital position, The Company anticipates that it will be time-consuming, costly and difficult for it to develop and implement the internal controls necessary for management to attest that the Company’s internal controls are effective as of April 30, 2009. Nuvilex may need to hire additional financial reporting and internal controls personnel, acquire software and retain a third party consultant during 2009 and 2010. If management is unable to attest that the Company’s internal controls are effective as of April 30, 2009, the price of Nuvilex common stock may be adversely affected.

ITEM 2. PROPERTIES.

The Company’s office, research and development and manufacturing facility is located at 1971 Old Cuthbert Road, Cherry Hill, NJ 08034. The facility is owned by the Company.

ITEM 3. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS.

On June 23, 2009, Kurt Mussina, former Senior Vice President, Sales and Marketing, for Freedom2, Inc., instituted a lawsuit in the Superior Court of New Jersey, captioned Mussina v. Freedom2, Inc., et al., against, inter alia, Freedom2, Inc., Freedom2 Holdings, Inc. and Nuvilex seeking payment of certain severance monies he argues are due to him under the terms of his previous employment agreement and subsequent severance agreement. Mr. Mussina’s claim, exclusive of costs and fees, seeks approximately $175,000 in unpaid severance. The Company disputes the basis for Mr. Mussina’s entitlement to such severance payments, as well as the amount claimed due, and is defending itself against this litigation.

ITEM 7. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

SALES

Revenues for fiscal 2009 decreased 45% to $653,134 as compared with prior year revenues of $1,189,954. The revenue decrease, in part, was attributable to $205,000 in credits issued to retail distribution partners (principally Rite-Aid) for Cinnergen™ returned goods. Comparative net sales by product line are as follows:

The decrease in sales also contributed to a decrease in annual gross margin percentage. The gross margin percentage decreased to 35% for the year ended April 30, 2009 as compared to 78% from the prior year. The decrease in gross margin is directly attributable to revenues described above and an increase in overhead expenses.  The Company’s products are sold in highly competitive marketplaces and sales may be materially impacted by competition from larger companies that possess greater operational and financial resources as well as greater brand recognition.

 

RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT

Annual research and development expenses increased 15% to $473,514 compared with $412,882 in the prior year.  Research and development expenses are attributable to both internal and university based sponsored research activities. The Company’s research and development activities include but are not limited to product conception, design, evaluation, formulation, manufacturing, packaging and testing. As with all corporate and university research, product conception, design and evaluation may or may not yield commercially viable products. The Company has completed or is currently evaluating and testing formulations for its Last Shot Hangover Remedy™, Prevorex™ diet aid supplement, Cyclosurface 3 ™ cosmetics, Oraphyte™ nematocide, and Citroxin™ surface cleaner and Avian and Swine flu products.

 

SELLING, GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSES

The Company incurred sales and marketing expenses of $594,342 in fiscal 2009, an increase of 190% as compared to sales and marketing expenses of $204,593 for the previous year.  The increase in sales and marketing expenses is due to a new Internet marketing campaign for Cinnergen™, introductory market launch sales expenses for Infinitink® and a new Nuvilex website. Presently, the Company limits its selling expenses to its direct to consumer retail store presence and Internet based marketing activities.

Non-cash stock compensation was paid for consulting fees for officers and directors, legal advisors, research advisors and marketing consultants. The Company incurred $1.5 million in non-cash consulting expenses in fiscal 2009 as compared to $2.4 million in 2008. Additionally, the Company took a $3.0 million expense charge for prepaid non-cash consulting fees previously reported as both current and long-term assets.

General and administrative expenses remained relatively constant decreasing 4% to $700,671 in fiscal 2009 as compared to $733,580 in fiscal 2008.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

As of April 30, 2009, the Company had working capital of $634,912. By adjusting the Company's operations to the level of capitalization, management believes it has sufficient resources to meet projected cash flow deficits through the next six months. The state of the U.S. economy may materially impact the Company’s ability to increase sales, operate the Company and/or raise additional capital. The Company currently expects that it will need to obtain debt and/or equity financing to continue operations beyond the next six months. The current worldwide financing environment is extremely challenging, which could make it more difficult for the Company to raise additional funds from public or private equity, including, but not limited to, venture capital and other private equity funds, public or private debt, or lease financings. If the Company is not successful in generating sufficient liquidity from operations or in raising sufficient capital resources on terms acceptable to the Company, this could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, results of operations, liquidity and financial condition. The Company’s independent certified public accountants have stated in their report which is included as part of the Company’s audited financial statements for the fiscal years ended April 30, 2009 and 2008, that the Company has suffered recurring losses from operations and this matter raises substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.

The Company has no off-balance sheet arrangements, special purpose entities, financing partnerships or guarantees.

ITEM 9A. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES.

 

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

The Company maintains disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934), as amended (the “Exchange Act”) that are designed to be effective in providing reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed in the Company’s reports under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the rules and forms of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”), and that such information is accumulated and communicated to the Company’s  management to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.


In designing and evaluating disclosure controls and procedures, management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute assurance of achieving the desired objectives. Also, 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, 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. The design of any system of controls 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.


As of the end of the period covered by this report, the Company conducted an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of its chief executive officer and chief financial officer of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures. Based on their evaluation, the chief executive officer and chief financial officer concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures need improvement and were not adequately effective as of April 30, 2009 to ensure timely reporting with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Management is in the process of identifying deficiencies with respect to the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures and implementing corrective measures.

Evaluation of and Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting


The management of Nuvilex, Inc., Inc. is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting. Internal control over financial reporting is defined in Rule 13a-15(f) or 15d-15(f) promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, as a process designed by, or under the supervision of, the Company’s principal executive and principal financial officers and effected by the Company’s Board of Directors, management and other personnel, to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and includes those policies and procedures that:  

·

Pertain to the maintenance of records that in reasonable detail accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the Company;

·

Provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the Company; and

·

Provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of the Company’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.

Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate. All internal control systems, no matter how well designed, have inherent limitations. Therefore, even those systems determined to be effective can provide only reasonable assurance with respect to financial statement preparation and presentation. Because of the inherent limitations of internal control, there is a risk that material misstatements may not be prevented or detected on a timely basis by internal control over financial reporting. However, these inherent limitations are known features of the financial reporting process. Therefore, it is possible to design into the process safeguards to reduce, though not eliminate, this risk.  

Management has not assessed the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of April 30, 2009.

This annual report does not include an attestation report of the Company’s registered accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting.  Management’s report is not subject to attestation by the Company’s registered public accounting firm pursuant to temporary rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission.


Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

There was no change in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting identified in connection with the requisite evaluation that occurred during the last fiscal quarter that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audit included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Nuvilex Inc. and Subsidiaries as of April 30, 2009 and 2008 and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the years ended  in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 1 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company has suffered recurring losses from operations. This raises substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. Management's plans in regard to these matters are described in Note 1. These consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

NOTE 1 - BACKGROUND, ACQUISITION PURCHASE PRICE AND LIQUIDITY

This summary of accounting policies for Nuvilex, Inc. and Subsidiaries is presented to assist in understanding the Company's consolidated financial statements. The accounting policies conform to generally accepted accounting principles and have been consistently applied in the preparation of the consolidated financial statements.

Background

The Company was founded as DJH International, Inc., a Nevada corporation on October 28, 1996, and changed its name to eFoodSafety.com, Inc. following its October 16, 2000 acquisition of Global Procurement Systems, Inc. The Company acquired Ozone Safe Food, Inc. for Common Stock on October 29, 2003. The Company’s early mission was to provide methods and products to ensure the safety of marketed fruits and vegetables worldwide. On February 4, 2004, the Company registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission and its Common Stock began publicly trading on the OTC Bulletin Board under the trading symbol EFSF. The Company did not issue shares of Common Stock pursuant to an initial public offering (IPO). With less than projected demand for its produce sterilization methods and software tracking products, the Company changed its strategy and acquired Knock-Out Technologies, Ltd. and MedElite, Inc. in May 2004 and August 2005, respectively.  Knock-Out Technologies, Ltd. is a developer of products using organic, non-toxic food based substances. MedElite, Inc. is the exclusive U.S. distributor of Talsyn TM -CI Scar Cream (“Talsyn”), a topical scar reducing cream. The Company’s new strategy was to bring to market scientifically derived products designed to improve the health and well-being of those who use them.  The Company sold its Ozone Safe Foods operations in August 2005. In November 2006, the Company formed Cinnergen, Inc., a wholly-owned subsidiary, to manufacture and market a non-prescription liquid nutritional supplement designed to promote healthy glucose metabolism, and purEffect, Inc., another wholly-owned subsidiary, to manufacture and market purEffect TM , a four-step non-prescription acne treatment. On March 10, 2006, the Company licensed the marketing rights for purEffect TM to Charlston Kentrist 41 Direct, Inc. (“CK41”). In July 2007, the Company formed I-Boost, Inc., a wholly-owned subsidiary, to manufacture and market a food bar designed to improve the effectiveness of the human immune system. In March 2008, the Company formed Cinnechol, Inc., a wholly-owned subsidiary, to manufacture and market a non-prescription nutritional supplement designed to promote cardiovascular health. In February 2009, the Company sold its remaining rights in the purEffect TM product to CK41 for an equity position in CK41 and future royalty compensation. In March 2009, the Company acquired Freedom2, the manufacturer and marketer of Infinitink®, a permanent tattoo ink designed to be removed more easily using conventional laser removal methods.  On March 18, 2009, the Company changed its name to Nuvilex, Inc.

Acquisition Purchase Price

On March 2, 2009, The Company entered into a share exchange agreement with Freedom2 Holdings, Inc. whereby the Company issued 48,205,000 shares of its common stock to acquire 100% of the outstanding shares of F2Holdings at $0.047 per share for a total purchase price of $2,265,634.  F2Holdings and its wholly-owned subsidiary, Freedom-2, Inc. (F2Inc), were formed on January 30, 2007. At the time of F2Holdings’ formation, all of its outstanding common stock was owned by Freedom-2, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company. On January 31, 2007, all of the aforementioned entities entered into an agreement and plan of merger under which Freedom-2, LLC was merged with and into F2Holdings and, as of that date, Freedom-2, LLC ceased to exist and Holdings continued as the surviving corporation. In connection with the merger, each outstanding membership unit of Freedom-2, LLC was exchanged for 75,000 shares of F2Holdings’ common stock.

The transaction has been accounted for as a purchase. Under the purchase method of accounting, the assets and liabilities of acquiree are recorded as of the completion of the merger, at their respective fair values, and then consolidated with the values of the acquirer. The purchase price was allocated as follows:

Liquidity

The Company has generated negative cash flows from operations, and an accumulated deficit of $29,491,700 at April 30, 2009. Those factors, as well as the uncertain conditions that the Company faces regarding its future raising of capital and ultimately successfully commercializing its business plan raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. Management of the Company has a plan to increase capital through issuance of additional stock to shareholders, however there can be no assurance that this can be successfully consummated.  

 

The Company’s financial statements have been presented on the basis that it is a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business.  The financial statements of the Company do not include any adjustments that might be necessary if the Company is unable to continue as a going concern.

NOTE 2 - Going Concern and Management's Plans

The Company's financial statements are prepared using accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAP) applicable to a going concern which contemplates the realization of assets and liquidation of liabilities in the normal course of business. The Company has not yet established an ongoing source of revenues sufficient to cover its operating costs and allow it to continue as a going concern. In addition, as of April 30, 2009, the Company has an accumulated deficit of $29,491,700, has incurred a net loss for the year ended April 30, 2009 of $6,041,624, and has working capital of $262,816. The Company’s current business plan requires additional funding beyond its anticipated cash flows from operations. These and other factors raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern.

The Company’s current business plan and strategy involves five elements that the Company believes are key to its success.  Part I of the plan is to improve the marketing and sales efforts of the better performing, existing products and products the Company believes have potential for meaningful sales growth and discontinue the sale of poor performing products.  For example, in April 2009, the Company launched a new Internet based advertising campaign for its Cinnergen Ô product line through dLife.com.  dLife is a leading Internet site for diabetic patients.  In addition, the Company has undertaken a substantial review and adjustment to its pricing strategy.  For example, the Company lowered its retail price for a 32 ounce bottle of Cinnergen Ô from $39.99 to $26.95 and made corresponding adjustments to its wholesale pricing structures in an effort to improve retail outlet sales and better compete against alternative products.  In June 2009, the Company also lowered its retail price for Talsyn Ô from $65.00 to $29.95 as part of its competitive pricing strategy.  In May 2009, the Company discontinued its low revenue producing I-Boost Immune Bar Ô .  The Company will continue to evaluate its marketing, pricing and sales strategies to maximize revenue growth and cash in-flows from its existing product lines.

Part II includes the design and market release of new products, including the Last Shot Hangover Remedy Ô , Prevorex Ô and the Cyclosurface 3 Ô cosmetics product line.  The Company believes these products meet its strategy of focusing on higher margin products targeting large market segments with rapid growth opportunities.

Part III is a cost containment and expense reduction program, the primary goal of which is to reduce overhead expenses.  One of Company’s largest overhead expenses is the Cherry Hill, New Jersey facility.  The Cherry Hill facility at 22,400 square feet is more than twice the amount of space required by the Company to operate efficiently.  Accordingly, the Company has listed the property for sale or lease.  The estimated fair market value of the property is $1.7 million.

Part IV is the out-license or sale of intellectual property, assets and/or product lines.  The Company is actively engaged in business development discussions for its Oraphyte Ô and Citroxin Ô product lines, which may yield material short term milestone income, future royalties, or product line acquisition income.  

Part V involves the Company securing additional debt or equity funds to finance its inventory production and marketing efforts in support of its sales goals.  

Management believes that its multi-part strategy will strengthen the Company’s position and both the short and long term viability of Nuvilex, Inc.

NOTE 3 – Significant Accounting Policies


Principles of Consolidation

The consolidated financial statements  include the accounts of Nuvilex, Inc.. and its subsidiaries, Knock-Out Technologies, Ltd.,  MedElite, Inc  Cinnergen, Inc , I-Boost, Inc. , Cinnechol Inc., Freedom-2 Holdings, Inc, Freedom-2, Inc.,. and Exceptional Tattoo, Inc. With respect to the latter three subsidiaries the financials include the profit and loss activity from the date of purchase March 2, 2009 to April 30, 2009 as the acquisition was accounted for under the purchase method of accounting.

All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

For purposes of the statement of cash flows, the Company considers all highly liquid debt instruments purchased with a maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents to the extent the funds are not being held for investment purposes.

Inventories

Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or market. Cost is computed on a weighted-average basis, which approximates the first-in, first-out method; market is based upon estimated replacement costs. Costs included in inventory primarily include finished spirit product and packaging.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles required 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.

Property and Equipment

Property and equipment are stated at cost. Expenditures that increase the useful lives or capacities of the plant and equipment are capitalized. Expenditures for repairs and maintenance are charged to income as incurred. Depreciation is provided using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives as follows:

Goodwill and other indefinite-lived intangibles

The Company records the excess of purchase price over the fair value of the identifiable net assets acquired as goodwill and other indefinite-lived intangibles.  Statements of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS ) No. 142, Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets, prescribes a two-step process for impairment testing of goodwill and indefinite-lived intangibles, which is performed annually, as well as when an event triggering impairment may have occurred.  The first step tests for impairment, while the second step, if necessary, measures the impairment.  The Company has elected to perform its annual analysis at the end of its reporting year.  No indicators of impairment were identified in the years ended April 30, 2009 and 2008.

Valuation of long-lived assets

The Company accounts for the valuation of long-lived assets under SFAS No. 144, Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets.  SFAS No. 144 requires that long-lived assets and certain identifiable intangible assets be reviewed for impairment whenever events or circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable.  Recoverability of the long-lived assets is measured by a comparison of the carrying amount of the asset to future undiscounted net cash flows expected to be generated by the asset.  If such assets are considered to be impaired, the impairment to be recognized is measured by the amount by which the carrying amount of the assets exceeds the estimated fair value of the assets.  Assets to be disposed of are reported at the lower of the carrying amount or fair value, less cost to sell.  

Basic and Diluted Earnings (Loss) per Share

Basic earnings per share is calculated using the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period without consideration of the dilutive effect of stock warrants and convertible notes. Diluted earnings per share is calculated using the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period after consideration of the dilutive effect of stock warrants and convertible notes.

F-8


Fair value of financial instruments

For certain of the Company’s nonderivative financial instruments, including cash and cash equivalents, receivables, accounts payable, and other accrued liabilities, the carrying amount approximates fair value due to the short-term maturities of these instruments.  The estimated fair value of long-term debt is based primarily on borrowing rates currently available to the Company for similar debt issues.  The fair value approximates the carrying value of long-term debt.

Investment in Marketable Securities

At April 30, 2009 the Company had 2,227,500 shares in a Sustainable Power Corpororation (PK:SSTP). The shares were purchased for $22,275, and had a market value of $31,185 resulting in an unrealized gain of $8,910 which is shown in the equity section under comprehensive income. For the year ended April 30, 2009, the company realized $17,389 in gains from the sale of this security.

Comprehensive Income

Comprehensive income is presented in the Shareholders’ Equity section of the Consolidated Balance Sheet  and consists of  unrealized gains or losses on marketable securities.

Revenue Recognition

Sales of products and related costs of products sold are recognized when (i) persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, (ii) delivery has occurred, (iii) the price is fixed or determinable and (iv) collectability is reasonably assured. These terms are typically met upon shipment of inks and tattoo equipment to the customer.

Allowance for Doubtful Accounts

The Company provides an allowance for estimated uncollectible accounts receivable balances based on historical experience and the aging of the related accounts receivable.

Income Taxes

Deferred taxes are calculated using the liability method whereby deferred tax assets are recognized for deductible temporary differences and operating loss and tax credit carryforwards and deferred tax liabilities are recognized for taxable temporary differences.  Temporary differences are the differences between the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and their tax bases.  Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance when, in the opinion of management, it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized.  Deferred tax assets and liabilities are adjusted for the effects of changes in tax laws and rates on the date of enactment.

In June 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued FASB Interpretation No. 48, Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes, an Interpretation of SFAS 109, Accounting for Income Taxes (“FIN 48”).  This interpretation clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in an entity’s financial statements in accordance with SFAS 109 by prescribing the minimum recognition threshold and measurement attributable to a tax position taken or expected to be taken on a tax return is required to be met before being recognized in the financial statements.  The adoption of FIN 48 had no material impact on the Company’s financial statements for the year ended April 30, 2009. As of April 30, 2009, the Company had a net operating loss carry forward for income tax reporting purposes of approximately $29,000,000 that may be offset against future taxable income through 2025.  Current tax laws limit the amount of loss available to be offset against future taxable income when a substantial change in ownership occurs. Therefore, the amount available to offset future taxable income may be limited. No tax benefit has been reported in the financial statements, because the Company believes there is a 50% or greater chance the carry forwards will expire unused. Accordingly, the potential tax benefits of the loss carry forwards are offset by a valuation allowance of the same amount.

Research and Development Costs

Expenditures for research and development are expensed as incurred. Such costs are required to be expensed until the point that technological feasibility is established. The Company incurred $473,514 and $412,882 in research and development costs for the years ended April 30, 2009 and 2008, respectively.

F-9


Concentration of Credit Risk

The Company has no significant off-balance-sheet concentrations of credit risk such as foreign exchange contracts, options contracts or other foreign hedging arrangements. The Company maintains the majority of its cash balances with one financial institution in the form of demand deposits.

Reclassifications

Certain items in the prior year financial statements have been reclassified for comparative purposes to conform to the presentation in the current period’s presentation. These reclassifications have no effect on the previously reported income (loss).

NOTE 4 – ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE

The Company recognizes a receivable predominately on sales of its Cinnergen product.  For the year ended April 30, 2009 the Company has established an allowance for doubtful accounts equal to $39,195 based upon its experience. There was no allowance for doubtful accounts for the year ended April 30, 2008.  The Company’s experience was that all receivables were collected at that time and no allowance was necessary.

During the year ended April 30, 2009, the Company issued credit memos to a customer in the amount of $336,452 representing the entire amount billed to date.  In exchange the customer will forgive approximately $400,000 of chargebacks. A settlement agreement is expected to be signed by both parties by July 31, 2009.

On December 20, 2006, the Company acquired U.S. Trademark Reg. No. 2,434,013 for the mark "Immune Boost". The Company had determined that the trademark has a useful life of fifteen years and was being amortized over that useful life. In May of 2009, a date subsequent to the balance sheet the Company determined that it would discontinue the sale of the product and hence the remaining book value of the trademark has been expensed.

On November 22, 2006, the Company, through its wholly-owned subsidiary Cinnergen, Inc. acquired the product rights of Cinnergen™ from NutraLab, Inc. In exchange for the product rights, the Company paid $100,000 and issued 1,000,000 shares of common stock valued at $170,000 to NutraLab, Inc. As part of the purchase agreement, the Company also assumed liabilities of NutraLab, Inc. of $955,826 that was offset by liabilities of the Company of $63,801 that was due to NutraLab, Inc. The Company also agreed to make additional payments totaling $175,000 to NutraLab, Inc. The total purchase price of the product rights was $1,337,025.  The Company then negotiated the payables that it assumed, resulting in a reduction of the liabilities of $480,000. The aforementioned product rights were subsequently reduced representing the forgiveness of debt, to $857,025. The Company has determined that the product rights have an indefinite useful life.

Product – For the purposes of this agreement, the purEffect® product shall consist of all raw materials, formulas, formulations, research, studies, clinical tests, monographs, packaging, designs, logos, typestyles, trademarks, copyrights, other intellectual property rights and all other elements and information relating to the purEffect® acne and/or skin care products.


Project – For the purpose of this agreement, the purEffect® project shall consist of the business and marketing plans for the sale of purEffect® Products; any and all materials obtained, created or produced by anyone for the marketing and/or sale of the purEffect® Products, whether in the form of written materials, websites, electronic materials, audio recordings, video or film recordings, raw or edited audio or video materials; any and all contracts, rights, relationships, understandings or engagements, written or verbal, related to the purEffect® Project and all right, title and interest in and to any and all of the materials, elements or intellectual property associated with the purEffect® Project.

CK41 agreed to pay regardless of whether or not it markets or sell the PurEffect project the following minimum royalty payments:

EFS will advise CK41 within 10 days of written notice to CK41 of its default of EFS’s intent to terminate or other proposed remedies. With the exception of default items 4, CK41 will be granted 30 calendar days to cure its defaults.


Representations and Warranties – EFS represents and warrants that to its knowledge there are no threatened or pending actions, demands, settlements or other claims associated with the purEffect® Products or Project.

RESOLVED, that the Company is authorized to issue five thousand (5,000) shares of Series E Convertible Preferred Stock (the “Series E Preferred Shares” or “Preferred Stock”), $.0001 par value per share, which shall have the following powers, designations, preferences, and other special rights:


Section 1.

Dividends.



The Series E Preferred Shares shall not bear any dividends.

Section 2.

Holder’s Conversion of Series E Preferred Shares.



A holder of Series E Preferred Shares shall have the right, at such holder’s option, to convert Series E Preferred Shares into shares of the Company’s common stock, $.0001 par value per shares (the “Common Stock”), on the following terms and conditions:

(a)

Conversion Right.

Subject to the provisions of Section 3(a) below, at any time or times on or after the earlier of: (i) 30 days after the Issuance Date (as defined herein), (ii) the date that a registration statement covering the resale of Commons Stock issued upon conversion of the Series E Preferred Stock is declared effective by the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) (“Scheduled Effective Date”), any holder of Series E Preferred Shares shall be entitled to convert any Series E Preferred Shares into fully paid and non-assessable shares (rounded to the nearest whole share in accordance with Section 2(f) below) of Common Stock, at the Conversion Rate (as defined below).

(b)

Conversion Rate.

The number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of each of the Series E Preferred Shares pursuant to Section (2)(a) shall be determined according to the following formula (the “Conversion Rate”);

the average Closing Bid Price (as defined below) for the Company’s common stock for the five (5) trading days prior to the Conversion Date (as defined below) (hereinafter sometimes called the “Fixed Conversion Price”).

For purposes of this Certificate of Designations, the following terms shall have the following meanings:

(i)

“Average Market Price”

means, with respect to any security for any period, that price which shall be computed as the arithmetic average of the Closing Bid Prices (as defined below) for such security for each trading day in such period;


(ii)

“Closing Bid Price”

means, for any security as of any date, the last closing bid price on Nasdaq as reported by Bloomberg Financial Markets (“Bloomberg”), or if the Nasdaq is not the principal trading market for such security, the last closing bid price of such security on the principal securities exchange or trading market where such security is listed or traded as reported by Bloomberg, or if the foregoing do not apply, the last closing bid price of such security in the over-the-counter market or the pink sheets or the bulletin board for such security as reported by Bloomberg, or, if no closing bid price is reported for such security by Bloomberg, the last closing trade price of such security as reported by Bloomberg.  If the Closing Bid Price cannot be calculated for such security on such date on any of the foregoing bases, the Closing Bid Price of such security on such date shall be the fair market value as reasonably determined in good faith by the Board of Directors of the Company (all as appropriately adjusted for any stock dividend, stock split, or other similar transaction during such period);


(iii)

“Issuance Date”  

means the date of issuance of the Series E Preferred Shares.

In order to prevent dilution of the rights granted under this Certificate of Designations, the Conversion Price will be subject to adjustment from time to time as provided in this Section 2(c).
 


(i)

Adjustment of Fixed Conversion Price upon Subdivision or Combination of Common Stock.  

If the Company at any time subdivides (by any stock split, stock dividend, recapitalization, or otherwise) one or more classes of its outstanding shares of Common Stock into a greater number of shares, the Fixed Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to such subdivision will be proportionately reduced.  If the Company at any time combines (by combination, reverse stock split, or otherwise) one or more classes of its outstanding shares of Common Stock into a smaller number of shares, the Fixed Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to such combination will be proportionately increased.
