These forward-looking statements are based on management's current expectations and are subject to factors and uncertainties which could cause actual results to differ materially from those described in such forward-looking statements.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES
REVENUE RECOGNITION:
CHEMICALS:
Revenues are recognized when products are shipped to end users. Shipments to
distributors are recognized as sales where no right of return exists.
ELECTRONICS:
We recognize revenue from the sale of our electronic products when they are shipped to the purchaser. Revenue from the sale of the electronics we manufacture for Ivivi is recognized upon completion of the manufacturing process. Shipping and handling charges and costs are immaterial. We offer a limited 5 year warranty on our spa/hot tub controller units. We have no other post shipment obligations and sales returns have been immaterial.
USE OF ESTIMATES:
Our discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations is based upon our financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The preparation of these consolidated financial statements requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and related disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities. On an ongoing basis, we evaluate our estimates, including those related to reserves, deferred tax assets and valuation allowance, impairment of long-lived assets, fair value of equity instruments issued to consultants for services and fair value of equity instruments issued to others. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying value of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions; however, we believe that our estimates, including those for the above described items, are reasonable.
BUSINESS OVERVIEW
ADM is a corporation that was organized under the laws of the State of Delaware on November 24, 1969. During the nine months ended December 31, 2008 and 2007, our operations were conducted through ADM itself and its subsidiaries, Action Industries Unlimited, LLC (formed August 20, 2008) ("Action"), Pegasus Laboratories, Inc. ("PLI") and Sonotron Medical Systems, Inc ("SMS"). Our investment in Ivivi Technologies, Inc. ("Ivivi") from October 18, 2006 to March 31, 2008 was reported under the equity method of accounting, whereby we recognized our share of Ivivi's earnings or losses as they are incurred. Effective April 1, 2008, we adopted SFAS No. 159 "The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Liabilities" with respect to our investment in Ivivi, whereby we report our investment in Ivivi at fair value.
We are a technology-based developer and manufacturer of diversified lines of products in the following three areas: (1) environmentally safe chemical products for industrial use, (2) electronic products for numerous industries, including therapeutic non-invasive electronic medical devices and electronic controllers for spas and hot tubs, and (3) cosmetic and topical dermatological products. We have historically derived most of our revenues from the development, manufacture and sale of chemical products, and, to a lesser extent, from our electronics and topical dermatological products. Although, during the three and nine months ended December 31, 2008 and 2007, we derived an increased amount of our revenue from contract manufacturing of electronics for Ivivi, we have completed our scheduled production for Ivivi, and have not received any material additional purchase orders from Ivivi to date. Our Electronics segment includes our Action and SMS subsidiaries, and our Chemical segment includes our PLI subsidiary.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS FOR THE THREE MONTHS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2008 AS COMPARED TO DECEMBER 31, 2007
REVENUES
Revenues were $257,609 for the three months ended December 31, 2008 as compared
to $496,261 for the three months ended December 31, 2007, a decrease of
$238,652, or 48%. The decrease resulted from declines in sales to existing
chemical customers of approximately $26,361, and, decreased sales of
approximately $243,065 in contract manufacturing for Ivivi partially offset by
increased sales of approximately $24,000 of electronic controllers for spas and
hot tubs being generated by our subsidiary Action. Gross profit was $74,255, or
29%, for the three months ended December 31, 2008 compared to $143,319, or 29%,
for the three months ended December 31, 2007. The comparative gross margin for
the periods was equal.
OPERATING LOSS
Loss from operations for the three months ended December 31, 2008 was $217,536,
compared to a loss from operations for the three months ended December 31, 2007
of $130,487. Selling, general and administrative expenses increased by $18,100,
or 7%, from $273,691 to $291,791, mainly due to increased compensation and
health insurance costs and rent, offset by a decrease in consulting expense and
samples expense. Research and development expenses were zero during the three
months ended December 31, 2008 compared to $115 during the three months ended
December 31, 2007, as a result of no research and development activities during
the third quarter of 2008.
NET LOSS AND NET LOSS PER SHARE
Net loss for the three months ended December 31, 2008 was $860,999, or $0.02 per
share, compared to a net loss for the three months ended December 31, 2007 of
$703,357, or $0.01 per share. With the adoption of SFAS No. 159, "The Fair Value
Option for Financial Assets and Liabilities", we recorded a decrease in fair
value of $650,000 with respect to our investment in Ivivi, for the three months
ended December 31, 2008. During the three months ended December 31, 2007, we
recorded an equity method investment loss of $594,446 from our investment in
Ivivi. Net interest income decreased $15,039 to $6,537 in the three months ended
December 31, 2008, from $21,576 in the three months ended December 31, 2007,
primarily due to decreased funds invested in a money market account and lower
interest rates on such funds, coupled with the interest expense on our
borrowings under our bank loan
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS FOR THE NINE MONTHS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2008 AS COMPARED TO
DECEMBER 31, 2007
REVENUES
Revenues were $1,248,140 for the nine months ended December 31, 2008 as compared
to $1,189,194 for the nine months ended December 31, 2007, an increase of
$58,946, or 5%. This increase was mainly the result of approximately $60,000
greater sales in contract manufacturing for Ivivi and approximately $31,000 in
sales of electronic controllers for spas and hot tubs, being generated by our
subsidiary Action, which were partially offset by declines in sales to our
existing chemical customers of approximately $49,000. Gross profit was $407,305,
or 33%, for the nine months ended December 31, 2008 compared to $417,023, or
35%, for the nine months ended December 31, 2007. Gross margins decreased as a
result of margins on approximately $517,823 of sales of electronics at
approximately 17% to Ivivi, as compared to margins achieved from chemical and
spa controller product lines, which are generally higher.
OPERATING LOSS
Loss from operations for the nine months ended December 31, 2008 was $485,067,
compared to a loss from operations for the nine months ended December 31, 2007
of $354,850. Selling, general and administrative expenses increased by $124,164,
or 16%, from $768,208 to $892,372, mainly due to increased compensation costs,
health insurance rates, reduced cost allocations to Ivivi, and the
implementation of a
new accounting software system offset by a decrease in accounting fees and consulting fees. Research and development expenses decreased by $3,665, or 100%, from $3,665 to zero, as a result of no research and development activities during the first three quarters of 2009.
NET LOSS AND NET LOSS PER SHARE
Net loss for the nine months ended December 31, 2008 was $8,489,701, or $0.16
per share, compared to a net loss for the nine months ended December 31, 2007 of
$1,957,354, or $0.04 per share. With the adoption of SFAS No. 159 "The Fair
Value Option for Financial Assets and Liabilities", we recorded a decrease in
fair value of $10,465,000 with respect to our investment in Ivivi, for the nine
months ended December 31, 2008. During the nine months ended December 31, 2007,
we recorded an equity method investment loss of $1,674,870 from our investment
in Ivivi. Net interest income decreased $37,188 to $35,178 during the nine
months ended December 31, 2008, from $72,366 in the nine months ended December
31, 2007, primarily due to decreased funds invested in a money market account
and lower interest rates on such funds, coupled with the interest expense on our
borrowings under our bank loan. Income tax credits of $2,425,188 were recognized
during the nine months ended December 31, 2008, as a result of the decrease in
fair value of our investment in Ivivi.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
At December 31, 2008, we had cash and equivalents of $1,325,511 as compared to
$2,072,325 at March 31, 2008. The $746,814 decrease was primarily the result of
our loss from operations during the nine month period and $225,000 of cash that
was placed on restriction in connection with the bank loan. To a lesser extent
our cash was reduced by the investment we made to acquire Action Spas. Our cash
will continue to be used for increased marketing costs, and the related
administrative expenses, in order to attempt to increase our revenue. We expect
to have enough cash to fund operations for the next twelve months. The market
value of our investment in Ivivi at December 31, 2008 was $910,000. However, our
common shares of Ivivi have not been registered with the SEC and are subject to
restriction as a result of securities laws.
OPERATING ACTIVITIES
Net cash used by operating activities was $517,241 for the nine months ended
December 31, 2008, as compared to net cash used by operating activities of
$304,546 for the nine months ended December 31, 2007. The use of cash during the
nine months ended December 31, 2008 was primarily due to a net loss of
$8,489,701, recognition of a deferred tax benefit of $2,425,188 and decreases in
operating liabilities of $289,001, which was primarily offset by a change in the
fair market value of our investment in Ivivi of $10,465,000 and a decrease in
net operating assets of $199,170. The use of cash during the nine months ended
December 31, 2007 was primarily due to a net loss of $1,957,354 and an increase
in net operating assets of $446,771, which was primarily offset by a non-cash
charge for the equity investment loss in Ivivi of $1,674,870 and increases in
operating liabilities of $413,355.
INVESTING ACTIVITIES
For the nine months ended December 31, 2008, net cash used by investing
activities was $429,573. The primary use of cash was for our acquisition of
Action Spas, whereby we acquired intangible assets of $200,000, property and
equipment of $14,888, and $225,000 in operating cash pledged for collateral on
borrowings under our bank loan. Uses of cash were partially offset by
collections from related parties of $23,456, which was received from an officer
for repayment of advances made prior to 2000. For the nine months ended December
31, 2007, cash used in investing activities was $2,140. Of this amount, $22,140
was used for the purchase of property and equipment and $20,000 was received
from an officer for repayment of advances made prior to 2000.
FINANCING ACTIVITIES
During the nine months ended December 31, 2008, we borrowed $200,000 from a
commercial bank to facilitate our acquisition of Action Spas. There was no such
activity during the nine months ended December 31, 2007.
OFF BALANCE SHEET ARRANGEMENTS
We have no off-balance sheet arrangements that have had or are reasonably likely
to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in
financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity,
capital expenditures or capital resources.
