NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

NOTE 1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION

Nature of Business

Commonwealth Biotechnologies, Inc., (the “Company” or “CBI”), was formed on September 30, 1992, for the purpose of providing specialized analytical laboratory services for the life scientist. Today, the Company’s core business activities have expanded to provide integrated contract research support in four principal areas; bio-defense; laboratory support services for on-going clinical trials; comprehensive contract projects in the private sector; and through its Fairfax Identity Labs (FIL) division, paternity testing, forensic case-work analysis and CODIS (Convicted Offender Data Base Index System) work. During 2007, the Company acquired Mimotopes Pty, Ltd. Through the development of proprietary and patented technologies, Mimotopes is viewed as an industry leader in the synthesis of research grade peptides. Also in 2007, the Company acquired Exelgen, formally known as Tripos Discovery Research Ltd. Exelgen is a leading drug discovery services business that provides pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies with novel approaches to drug discovery. These acquisitions have helped to enhance the Company’s research and development outsourcing capabilities and presence in the global drug discovery market.

Consolidation Policy

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Commonwealth Biotechnologies, Inc. and its wholly owned subsidiaries’ Mimotopes Pty, Ltd, Australia and Exelgen, England. All inter-company accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

Estimates

The preparation of financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent asset and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Revenue Recognition

The Company recognizes revenue upon the completion of laboratory service projects, or upon the delivery of biologically relevant materials that have been synthesized in accordance with project terms. Laboratory service projects are generally administered under fee-for-service contracts or purchase orders. Any revenues from research and development arrangements, including corporate contracts and research grants, are recognized pursuant to the terms of the related agreements as work is performed, or as scientific milestones, if any, are achieved. Product sales are recognized when shipped. Amounts received in advance of the performance of services or acceptance of a milestone, are recorded as deferred revenue and recognized when completed.

Foreign Currency Translation

The Company’s consolidated financial statements are reported in U.S. dollars. Assets and liabilities of foreign subsidiaries are translated using rates of exchange as of the balance sheet date, and related revenues and expenses are translated at average rates of exchange in effect during the period.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued)

Cumulative translation adjustments have been recorded as a separate component within other comprehensive income (loss) of stockholders’ equity. Realized gains and losses from foreign currency translations are included in other income (expense).

Long-Lived Assets

Long-lived assets, such as property, plant, and equipment, are evaluated for impairment when events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the asset may not be recoverable through the estimated undiscounted future cash flows from the use of those assets. When any such impairment exists, the related assets will be written down to fair value. No impairment losses have been recorded through June 30, 2008.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

The Company considers all highly liquid debt instruments purchased with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents. At times, the Company maintains cash balances in excess of FDIC insured amounts. The excess over the FDIC amount was approximately $500,000 and $2,450,000 at June 30, 2008 and December 31, 2007, respectively.

Accounts Receivable

The majority of our accounts receivable are due from trade customers. Credit is extended based on evaluation of our customers’ financial condition and collateral is not required. Accounts receivable payment terms vary and are stated in the financial statements at amounts due from customers net of an allowance for doubtful accounts. Accounts that are outstanding longer than the payment terms are considered past due. We determine our allowance by considering a number of factors, including the length of time trade accounts receivable are past due, our previous loss history, customers’ current ability to pay their obligations to us, and the condition of the general economy and the industry as a whole. The Company writes off accounts receivable when they become uncollectible, and payments subsequently received on such receivables are credited to the allowance for doubtful accounts.

Inventory

Inventories consists of raw materials, work-in-process and finished goods and are stated at the lower of FIFO cost (first-in, first-out method) or market. The Company reviews its recorded inventory periodically and estimates on allowance for obsolete, excess, or slow moving items as necessary.

Property and Equipment

Property and equipment are recorded at cost. Depreciation is computed principally by the straight-line method over their estimated useful lives providing depreciation and amortization for financial reporting purposes. The cost of repairs and maintenance is expensed as incurred. The estimated useful lives of the assets are as follows:

7

Table of Contents

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued)

Assets under capital lease obligations are recorded at the lesser of the present value of the minimum lease payments or the fair market value of the leased asset, at inception of the lease.

Deferred Financing Fees

Loan costs are being amortized on a straight-line basis, which approximates the interest method, over the expected term of the related obligations.

Goodwill

Goodwill, which represents the excess of purchase price over the fair value of net assets acquired, is evaluated on an annual basis for impairment by comparing the fair value against book value. If impairment exists, the Company writes down these assets accordingly. Goodwill as of June 30, 2008, amounted to $3,486,167 resulting from the acquisition of FIL in 2004, Mimotopes in 2007, and subsequent effects of currency translation.

Income Taxes

Deferred taxes are provided on the asset and liability method whereby deferred tax assets are recognized for deductible temporary differences 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.

Income (Loss) Per Common Share

Basic income (loss) per share has been computed on the basis of the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding. Common shares which can be issued upon exercise of stock options and warrants have not been included in the computation because their inclusion would have been anti-dilutive. Weighted average shares outstanding for basic and diluted loss per common share were 5,532,593 and 4,867,056 for the six months ended June 30, 2008 and 2007, respectively.

Employee Stock Plans

The Company adopted a Stock Incentive Plan on June 24, 1997. The Plan provides for granting to employees, officers, directors, consultants and certain other non-employees of the Company options to purchase shares of common stock. A maximum of 410,000 shares of common stock may be issued pursuant to the Plan. Of the maximum number of shares to be issued under the Plan, 270,000 have been reserved for incentive awards to be granted to the founders of the Company, and 140,000 are reserved for incentive awards to be granted to others.

A 2000 Stock Incentive Plan was adopted by the Board of Directors and approved by the shareholders. The Plan makes up to 300,000 shares of common stock available for grants of restricted stock awards and stock options in the form of incentive stock options and non-qualified options to employees, directors and consultants of the Company.

Table of Contents

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued)

A 2002 Stock Incentive Plan was adopted by the Board of Directors and approved by the shareholders. The Plan makes up to 600,000 shares of common stock available for grants of restricted stock awards and stock options in the form of incentive stock options and non-qualified options to employees, directors and consultants of the Company.

A 2007 Stock Incentive Plan was adopted by the Board of Directors and approved by the shareholders. The Plan makes up to 1,000,000 shares of common stock available for grants of restricted stock awards and stock options in the form of incentive stock options and non-qualified options to employees, directors and consultants of the Company.

Incentive awards may be in the form of stock options, restricted stock, incentive stock or tax offset rights. In the case of incentive stock options (within the meaning of Section 422 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended), the exercise price will not be less than 100% of the fair market value of shares covered at the time of the grant, or 110% for incentive stock options granted to persons who own more than 10% of the Company’s voting stock. Options granted under the Plans generally vest over a five-year period from the date of grant and are exercisable for ten years, except that the term may not exceed five years for incentive stock options granted to persons who own more than 10% of the Company’s outstanding common stock.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The Company has determined, based on available market information and appropriate valuation methodologies, that the fair value of its financial instruments approximates carrying value. The carrying amounts of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable and accounts payable approximate fair value due to the short-term maturity of the instruments. The carrying amount of debt approximates fair value because of the short term maturities or the interest rates under the credit agreements are predominantly variable, based on current market conditions.

Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities

The Company uses interest rate swap agreements to manage variable interest rate exposure on the majority of its long-term debt. The Company’s objective for holding these derivatives is to decrease the volatility of future cash flows associated with interest payments on its variable rate debt. The Company does not issue derivative instruments for trading purposes. For derivatives designated as cash flow hedges, the effective portion of changes in the fair value of the derivative is initially reported in “other comprehensive income or loss” on the consolidated balance sheets and subsequently reclassified to interest expense when the hedged exposure affects income (i.e. as interest expense accrues on the related outstanding debt). Differences between the amounts paid and amounts received under the swap agreements are recognized in interest expense.

Changes in the ineffective portion of the fair value of the derivative are accounted for through interest expense. The notional principal value of the Company’s swap agreement outstanding as of June 30, 2008 is equal to the outstanding principal balance of the corresponding debt instrument.

In September 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 157, Fair Value Measurements. This Statement defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. SFAS No. 157 applies to other accounting pronouncements that require or permit fair value measurements, the Board having previously concluded in those accounting pronouncements that

Table of Contents

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued)

fair value is the relevant measurement attribute. The Statement does not require any new fair value measurements and was initially effective for the Company beginning January 1, 2008. In February 2008, the FASB approved the issuance of FASB Staff Position (FSP) FAS 157-2. FSP FAS 157-2 defers the effective date of SFAS No. 157 until January 1, 2009 for nonfinancial assets and nonfinancial liabilities except those items recognized or disclosed at fair value on an annual or more frequently recurring basis. Adoption for financial assets and liabilities did not have a material effect on the Company’s results of operations or financial position.

In December 2007, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 141(R), Business Combinations, to further enhance the accounting and financial reporting related to business combinations. SFAS No. 141(R) establishes principles and requirements for how the acquirer in a business combination (1) recognizes and measures in its financial statements the identifiable assets acquired, the liabilities assumed, and any non controlling interest in the acquire, (2) recognizes and measures the goodwill acquired in the business combination or a gain from a bargain purchase, and (3) determines what information to disclose to enable users of the financial statements to evaluate the nature and financial effects of the business combination. SFAS No. 141(R) applies prospectively to business combinations for which the acquisition date is on or after the beginning of the first annual reporting period beginning on or after December 15, 2008. Therefore, the effects of the Company’s adoption of SFAS No. 141(R) will depend upon the extent and magnitude of acquisitions after December 31, 2008.

In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 160, Non controlling Interests in Consolidated Financial Statements – an amendment of ARB No. 51, to create accounting and reporting standards for the no controlling interest in a subsidiary and for the deconsolidation of a subsidiary. SFAS No. 160 establishes accounting and reporting standards that require (1) the ownership interest in subsidiaries held by parties other than the parent to be clearly identified and presented in the consolidated balance sheet within equity, but separate from the parent’s equity, (2) the amount of consolidated net income attributable to the parent and the no controlling interest to be clearly identified and presented on the face of the consolidated statement of income, (3) changes in a parent’s ownership interest while the parent retains its controlling financial interest in its subsidiary to be accounted for consistently, (4) when a subsidiary is deconsolidated, any retained noncontrolling equity investment in the former subsidiary to be initially measured at fair value, and (5) entities to provide sufficient disclosures that clearly identify and distinguish between the interests of the parent and the interests of the noncontrolling owners. SFAS No. 160 applies to fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning on or after December 15, 2008, and prohibits early adoption. Management has not completed its review of the new guidance; however, the effect of the Statement’s implementation is not expected to be material to the Company’s results of operations or financial position.

In February 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 159, The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities. This Statement permits entities to choose to measure eligible items at fair value at specified election dates. For items for which the fair value option has been elected, unrealized gains and losses are to be reported in earnings at each subsequent reporting date. The fair value option is irrevocable unless a new election date occurs, may be applied instrument by instrument, with a few exceptions, and applies only to entire instruments and not to portions of instruments. SFAS No. 159 provides an opportunity to mitigate volatility in reported earnings caused by measuring related assets and liabilities differently without having to apply complex hedge accounting. Management has adopted SFAS No. 159, the effect of implementation is not material to the Company’s results of operations or financial position as no such elections have been made.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued)

In March, 2008, the FASB issued FASB Statement No. 161, Disclosures about Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities—an Amendment of FASB Statement 133. Statement 161 enhances required disclosures regarding derivatives and hedging activities, including enhanced disclosures regarding how: (a) an entity uses derivative instruments; (b) derivative instruments and related hedged items are accounted for under FASB Statement No. 133, Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities; and (c) derivative instruments and related hedged items affect an entity’s financial position, financial performance, and cash flows. Specifically, Statement 161 requires:

-Disclosure of the objectives for using derivative instruments be disclosed in terms of underlying risk and accounting designation;

-Disclosure of the fair values of derivative instruments and their gains and losses in a tabular format;

-Disclosure of information about credit-risk-related contingent features; and

-Cross-reference from the derivative footnote to other footnotes in which derivative-related information is disclosed.

Reclassifications

Certain immaterial reclassifications have been made to the prior period amounts to conform to the current period’s presentation.

NOTE 2. STOCK OPTIONS

Stock-Based Compensation Plans—Stock-based compensation expense recognized during a period is based on the value of the portion of stock-based awards that is ultimately expected to vest during the period. Stock-based compensation expense recognized in the three and six months ended June 30, 2008 included compensation expense for stock-based awards granted prior to, but not yet vested as of December 31, 2007, based on the fair value on the grant date.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued)

The following table summarizes information about Restricted Stock Unit (RSU) activity for the six months ended June 30, 2008:

At June 30, 2008, there was approximately $150,500 of total unrecognized compensation cost related to non-vested RSUs granted under our stock plans which is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 1.8 years. Compensation expense related to RSUs for the six months ended June 30, 2008 and 2007 was approximately $50,000 for both periods, and is included in selling, general and administrative expenses.

NOTE 3. EARNINGS (LOSS) PER SHARE

The Company follows the guidance provided in the Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 128, Earnings Per Share, which establishes standards for computing and presenting earnings per share and applies to entities with publicly held common stock or potential common stock. Basic earnings (loss) per common share are computed by dividing the net earnings (loss) by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted per share amounts assume the conversion, exercise or issuance of all potential common stock instruments such as warrants and convertible securities, unless the effect is to reduce a loss or increase earnings per share.

The components of comprehensive income/(loss), net of tax, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2008 and 2007 were as follows:

NOTE 5. INCOME TAXES

The Company adopted the provisions of FASB Interpretation No. 48, “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes” (“FIN 48”) effective January 1, 2007. FIN 48 provides a comprehensive model for how a company should recognize, measure, present and disclose in its financial statements uncertain tax positions that the company has taken or expects to take on a tax return. The Company did not have any unrecognized tax benefits and there was no effect on our financial condition or results of operations as a result of implementing FIN 48.

The Company files income tax returns in U.S. federal jurisdiction and the Commonwealth of Virginia. The Company is no longer subject to U.S. or state tax examinations for years before 2003. The Company does not believe there will be any material changes in its unrecognized tax positions over the next twelve months.

NOTE 6. CONVERTIBLE DEBT

On December 31, 2007 the Company issued $1,950,000 of convertible debt in a subscription agreement between the Company and LH Financial. The debt carries an interest rate of 10% annually and matures in June 2009. Quarterly interest payments may be made in the form of either cash or common stock. The debt may be converted into shares of common stock at a conversion price of $2.00 per share. In conjunction with the debt, the Company also issued Class A warrants to purchase 975,000 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $2.85 per share that expire in May 2013. The fair value of the Class A warrants is $1.79 per share. The fair value of the Class A warrants is calculated using the Black-Scholes method. Assumptions for Class A warrants include the stock asset price at $2.55 and a stock option price of $2.85 with a maturity date of 5 years and effective interest rate of 3.40%. The Company also issued Class B warrants to purchase 243,000 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $5.00 per share. The fair value of the Class B warrants is $.36 per share. The fair value of the Class B warrants is calculated using the Black-Scholes method. The debt carries a beneficial conversion feature, which along with the relative fair value of the warrants, resulted in a debt discount of $1,950,000

which was recorded against the convertible debt and offset in additional paid in capital. This discount will be amortized as interest expense over the life of the debt using the level yield method, which resulted in amortization of approximately $457,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2008. The Company registered the required minimum number of shares based upon the agreement on April 30, 2008 and will register the remaining shares by June 2009 as required under the agreement. During the second Quarter of 2008, the Company received notice of conversion of $100,000 of the principal amount of the note which resulted in the issuance of 50,000 shares of common stock.

NOTE 7. FAIR VALUE INSTRUMENTS

On January 1, 2008, the Company adopted the provisions of SFAS No. 157. Fair value is defined as the price at which an asset could be exchanged in a current transaction between knowledgeable, willing parties. A liability’s fair value is defined as the amount that would be paid to transfer the liability to a new obligor, not the amount that would be paid to settle the liability with the creditor. Where available, fair value is based on observable market prices or parameters or derived from such prices or parameters. Where observable prices or inputs are not available, valuation models are applied. These valuation techniques involve some level of management estimation and judgment, the degree of which is dependent on the price transparency for the instruments or market and the instruments’ complexity.

Assets and liabilities recorded at fair value in the Consolidated Balance Sheets are categorized based upon the level of judgment associated with the inputs used to measure the fair value. Hierarchical levels, defined by SFAS 157 and directly related to the amount of subjectivity associated with the inputs to fair valuation of these assets and liabilities, are as follows:

Level 1- Inputs are unadjusted, quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities at the measurement date. The types of assets and liabilities carried at Level 1 fair value generally are listed in active markets.

Level 2 – Inputs (other than quoted prices included in Level 1) are either directly or indirectly observable for the asset or liability through correlation with market data at the measurement date and for the duration of the instruments anticipated life. Fair value assets and liabilities that are included in this category are derivatives such as interest rate swap agreements.

Level 3- Inputs reflect management’s best estimate of what market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability at the measurement date. Consideration is given to the risk inherent in the inputs to the model.

NOTE 8. JOINT VENTURE

On March 28, 2008 the Company entered into a strategic relationship with Venturepharm Laboratories Limited, a Cayman Islands limited company (VPL) with its principal offices in Beijing, Peoples Republic of China. This relationship is multi-faceted and was entered into following a private transaction between VPL and PharmAust Limited (PAA), an Australian company, whereupon VPL will acquire all of the 2.15 million shares of CBI held by PAA. Coincident with the transaction, CBI entered into (a) an Ancillary Agreement with VPL to provide a $1 million put option from CBI to VPL and a $3 million call option from VPL to CBI both at a 10% discount to market with a three year expiration date, (b) a Voting Lock Up Agreement to require VPL to vote in favor of all matters brought before the shareholders for a period of six months and to escrow its acquired shares for a eighteen months, (c) a Registration Rights Agreement to be effective after twenty-four months, and (d) a Joint Venture (JV) agreement to establish an unincorporated JV which provides CBI access on a preferred basis to the extensive, low cost capabilities of VPL in China. The JV will be jointly funded and managed. On May 8, 2008 VPL and CBI entered into a conditional subscription agreement and waiver to the Ancillary Agreement. VPL has agreed to waive the prohibition under the Ancillary Agreement that CBI may not exercise the Put Option until the sixty day period following the completion of the Acquisition and CBI agreed to exercise the Put Option in July 2008.

NOTE 9. EXERCISE OF VENTUREPHARM LABORATORIES LIMITED PUT OPTION

On July 7, 2008, the Company completed a sale of stock subject to the $1 million put right with VPL. Under the terms of the put agreement, CBI sold 463,426 shares of common stock to VPL at a price of $2.15 per share. In consideration of the sale of shares, CBI received $500,000 in cash and 2,229,664 of VPL’s ordinary shares.

The following should be read in conjunction with the Company’s Financial Statements and Notes included herein.

Overview

The CBI Group provides sophisticated research and development support services to the global biotechnology and pharmaceutical markets. Since 2004, CBI has pursued a strategy of acquiring or merging with complementary companies that extend its technological capabilities and that have strong growth potential. This strategy has significant cost and strategic benefits through economies of scale, access to new markets and the potential to win a broader range of business from existing customers. CBI now operates 4 complimentary business units: (1) CBI Services, a discovery phase contract research organization, (2) FIL, a DNA reference business, (3) Mimotopes, a peptide and discovery chemistry business, and (4) Exelgen, a medicinal and synthetic discovery chemistry business.

The Company is thus poised for sustained growth through the:

Outside of organic revenue growth in the Company’s core focus areas, the Company is actively looking at corporate acquisitions which are complimentary to existing platform technologies and within its corporate expertise. Any new potential acquisition is carefully analyzed with regard to its revenue and expense impact on the Company, whether it poses significant growth potential for the Company, whether it is accretive to CBI’s shareholders, and whether the new company can be readily managed while retaining key personnel. New acquisitions are well within the concept of the CBI Group of Companies whose end goal is to create a fully integrated service provider for the biotech and pharmaceutical industries.

Beginning in the second half of 2008, the joint venture with VPL, China’s largest listed contract research organization, has significant revenue and earnings potential for CBI. The establishment of the new facilities and the sourcing of staff for the joint venture has progressed steadily since April. Two new state-of-the-art R&D and pre-clinical facilities have been procured in Jiangsu province, China. Management believes that the combination of CBI’s expertise in drug discovery services and reliable project management combined with the capacity and cost advantages will allow the Company to compete on both price and quality in this rapidly growing market.

Results of Operations

Three Months Ended June 30, 2008 Compared with Three Months Ended June 30, 2007.

Total revenues indicate modest gains across nearly all revenue categories in comparison to the respective 2007 Quarter. Growth in both the custom peptide and genetic identity sectors primarily contributed to these gains. For comparative reporting purposes, the prior year Quarter reflects only one month of results for Exelgen as the completion of this acquisition did not occur until June 2007. The Company experienced fluctuations in all revenue categories against the prior year Quarter. These fluctuations are generally the result of common factors associated with contract revenue. The continuation of existing projects or engagement of future projects is usually dependent upon the customer’s satisfaction with scientific results provided in the initial phases of the scientific program and other factors outside of the Company’s control to include timing of product development and commercialization programs of the customer. The combined impact of commencement and termination of research contracts from several large customers can result in large fluctuations in financial performance.

Total revenues increased by $403,918 or 14.4% from $2,804,761 during the second Quarter of 2007 (the “2007 Quarter”) to $3,208,679 during second quarter of 2008 (the “2008 Quarter”).

Table of Contents

Revenues realized from commercial contracts increased by $105,091 or 5.2%, from $2,010,864 in the 2007 Quarter to $2,115,955 in the 2008 Quarter. Driven by strong growth in peptides, commercial revenues for Mimotopes increased $279,279. A significant factor of this increase relates to strong emphasis placed on sales and marketing efforts in recent months. These efforts have positioned the Company for continued growth in 2008 as a result of securing new contracts, sales orders and establishing strategic relationships with various research and pharmaceutical companies. Commercial revenue for CBI Services decreased by $143,709. The decrease was offset by higher revenues realized in government contracts. Increased demands resulting from contracts awarded in 2008 shifted revenues away from the commercial sector in the current Quarter. Commercial revenue for Exelgen decreased by $33,022. This decrease relates to the completion of a large contract in June 2007.

Revenues realized from various government contracts increased by $200,665 or 65.8%, from $304,778 in the 2007 Quarter to $505,443 in the 2008 Quarter. The addition of four new biosecurity-based government contracts awarded in the current year led to the increase.

Genetic identity revenues increased by $81,366 or 22.6%, from $359,339 in the 2007 Quarter to $440,705 in the 2008 Quarter. The genetic identify sector has been successful in promoting growth through organic sales as well as expanding existing services into new markets.

Clinical testing revenues remained relatively constant with a minimal decrease of $7,430, or 16.4%, from $45,267 in the 2007 Quarter to $37,837 in the 2008 Quarter.

Cost of Services

Cost of services consists primarily of costs associated with direct materials, direct labor and overhead.

Revenues

Total revenues indicate modest gains across nearly all revenue categories in comparison to the respective six month period ended June 30, 2008 (the “2008 Period”). Increased revenues are mainly reflective of additional sales achieved through the acquisitions of Mimotopes and Exelgen. For comparative reporting purposes, the six month period ended June 30, 2007 (the “2007 Period”) reflects five months of results for Mimotopes and only one month of results for Exelgen as both acquisitions were completed in the 2007 Period. The Company experienced fluctuations in all revenue categories against the prior year Period. These fluctuations are generally the result of common factors associated with contract revenue. The continuation of existing projects or engagement of future projects is usually dependent upon the customer’s satisfaction with the scientific results provided in the initial phases of the scientific program and other factors outside of the Company’s control to include timing of product development and commercialization programs of the customer. The combined impact of commencement and termination of research contracts from several large customers can result in large fluctuations in financial performance.

Critical Accounting Policies

A summary of the Company’s critical accounting policies follows:

Estimates: The preparation of the financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of asset and liabilities and disclosure of contingent asset and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Revenue Recognition: The Company recognizes revenue upon the completion of laboratory service projects, or upon the delivery and acceptance of biologically relevant materials that have been synthesized in accordance with project terms. Laboratory service projects are generally administered under fee for service contracts. Any revenues from research and development arrangements, including corporate contracts and research grants, are recognized pursuant to the terms of the related agreements as work is performed, or scientific milestones, if any are achieved. Amounts received in advance of the performance of services or acceptance of a milestone, are recorded as deferred revenue.

Table of Contents

Accounts receivable: Accounts receivable are carried at original invoice amount less an estimate for doubtful receivables based on a review of all outstanding amounts on a monthly basis. Management determines the allowance for doubtful accounts by regularly evaluating individual customer receivables and considering a customer’s financial condition, credit history, and current economic conditions. Accounts receivable are written off when deemed uncollectible. Recoveries of accounts receivable previously written off are recorded when received.
