Encorium Group, Inc.

Notes to Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements

(Unaudited)



|1. | SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES:
|-- | -------------------------------------------

Organization

Encorium Group Inc (the Company), (formerly Covalent Group, Inc) is a Delaware corporation
headquartered in Wayne, Pennsylvania. Effective November 1, 2006, in connection with the acquisition of Remedium Oy, the Companys European operations are based in Espoo, Finland.

The Company is clinical research organization (CRO), which specializes in the design and management of complex clinical trials for the
pharmaceutical, biotechnology and medical device industries. The Companys mission is to provide its clients with high quality, full-service support for their biopharmaceutical development programs. Encorium offers therapeutic expertise,
experienced team management and advanced technologies. The Company has clinical trials experience across a wide variety of therapeutic areas, such as cardiovascular, nephrology, endocrinology/metabolism, diabetes, neurology, oncology, immunology,
vaccines, infectious diseases, gastroenterology, dermatology, hepatology, womens health and respiratory medicine. The Company has the capacity and expertise to conduct clinical trials on a global basis.

Basis of Presentation

The
accompanying unaudited financial statements for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2006 and September 30, 2005 have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America
(generally accepted accounting principles) for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by
generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (primarily consisting of normal recurring adjustments) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included.
Operating results for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2006 may not necessarily be indicative of the results that may be expected for other quarters or for the year ending December 31, 2006. For further information, refer to
the financial statements and footnotes thereto included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2005.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported
amounts of revenues and expenses during the period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

##### Table of Contents

Consolidation

The consolidated financial statements for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2006 and 2005 include our accounts and the accounts of our wholly-owned subsidiaries. Intercompany transactions and balances
have been eliminated in consolidation.

Investigator Advances

We received advance payments from one of our clients as part of a long-term contract, which included a separate cash account to be utilized for payment of
investigator fees. As of September 30, 2006 and December 31, 2005, this cash amount was $569 thousand and $1 thousand, respectively. This amount is also included in customer advances in the accompanying balance sheets.

Accounts Receivable

Accounts
receivable, net of an allowance for doubtful accounts, consists of customer billings pursuant to contractual terms related to work performed as of September 30, 2006. In general, amounts become billable upon the achievement of milestones or in
accordance with predetermined payment schedules set forth in the contracts with our clients. Accounts receivable included $2.7 million and $1.1 million billed to customers as of September 30, 2006 and December 31, 2005, respectively.

Our accounts receivable and costs and estimated earnings in excess of related billings on uncompleted contracts are concentrated with a
small number of companies within the pharmaceutical, biotechnology and medical device industries. The significant majority of this exposure is to well established firms. Credit losses have historically been minimal. As of September 30, 2006,
the total of accounts receivable and costs and estimated earnings in excess of related billings on uncompleted contracts was $3.5 million. Of this amount, the exposure to our largest clients was 73% of the total, with the largest clients
representing 39%, 19%, 9% and 6% of total exposure, respectively. As of December 31, 2005, the total of accounts receivable and costs and estimated earnings in excess of related billings on uncompleted contracts was $1.5 million. Of this
amount, the exposure to our three largest clients was 84% of the total, with the three largest clients representing 42%, 29%, and 13% of total exposure, respectively.

Revenue Recognition

The majority of our net revenue is recognized from fixed price contracts
on a proportional performance method based on assumptions regarding the estimated completion of the project. This method is used because management considers total costs incurred to be the best available measure of progress on these contracts.

Each month costs are accumulated on each project and compared to total estimated cost to complete to determine the degree of completion for
that particular project. This determines the percentage of completion for the project. This percentage of completion is multiplied by the contract value to determine the amount of revenue to be recognized. As the work progresses, original estimates
may be adjusted due to revisions in the scope of work or other factors and a contract modification may be negotiated with the customer to cover additional costs. Our accounting policy for recognizing revenue for changes in scope is to recognize
revenue when the Company has reached agreement with the client, the services pursuant to the change in scope have been performed, the price has been set forth in the change of scope document and collectibility is reasonably assured based on our
course of dealings with the client. We bear the risk of cost overruns on work performed absent a signed contract modification. Because of the inherent uncertainties in estimating costs, it is reasonably possible that the cost estimates used will
change in the near term and may have a material adverse impact on our financial performance.

In the past, we have had to commit unanticipated resources to complete projects resulting in lower gross
margins on those projects. These unanticipated additional costs occurred on several long term contracts which we completed or substantially completed during 2004. These contracts spanned a period of three to six years. We may experience similar
situations in the future, although our current contracts in process are of a shorter duration and subject to less cost volatility. Should our estimated costs on fixed price contracts prove to be low in comparison to actual costs, future margins
could be reduced, absent our ability to negotiate a contract modification.

Billings and the related payment terms from fixed price
contracts are generally determined by provisions in the contract that may include certain payment schedules and the submission of required billing detail. Accordingly, cash receipts, including the receipt of up front payments and performance based
milestone payments, do not necessarily correspond to costs incurred and revenue recognized on contracts. A contracts payment structure generally requires an up front payment of 10% to 15% of the contract value at or shortly after the
initiation of the clinical trial, a series of periodic payments over the life of the contract and, in certain instances, milestone payments based on the achievement of certain agreed upon performance criteria. The up front payments are deferred and
recognized as revenues as services are performed under the proportional performance method. Periodic payments, including performance based milestone payments, are invoiced pursuant to the terms of the contract once the agreed upon performance
criteria have been achieved. Milestone payments are generally included in the total value of the contract. All payments received pursuant to the contract are recognized in accordance with the proportional performance method. In a comprehensive full
service drug development program, the client would not generally purchase certain deliverables separately but as an integrated, full service arrangement in connection with the development of the drug. Examples of performance based milestones and
interim deliverables include, but are not limited to, the completion of patient enrollment into the clinical trial, completion of the database and acceptance by the client of the final study report.

Clients generally may terminate a contract on short notice which might cause unplanned periods of excess capacity and reduced revenues and earnings.
Client initiated delays or cancellations for ongoing clinical trials can come suddenly and may not be foreseeable. To offset the effects of early termination of significant contracts, we attempt to negotiate the payment of an early termination fee
as part of the original contract. Generally, we have not been successful in negotiating such fees. Our contracts typically require payment to us of expenses incurred to wind down a study and fees earned to date. Therefore, revenue recognized prior
to cancellation does not require a significant adjustment upon cancellation. If we determine that a loss will result from the performance of a fixed price contract, the entire amount of the estimated loss is charged against income in the period in
which such determination is made.

Our accounting policy for recognizing revenue for terminated projects requires us to perform a
reconciliation of study activities versus the activities set forth in the contract. We negotiate with the client, pursuant to the terms of the existing contract, regarding the wind up of existing study activities in order to clarify which services
the client wants us to perform. Once we and the client agree on the reconciliation of study activities and the agreed upon services have been performed by us, we would record the additional revenue provided collectibility is reasonably assured.

Our operations have experienced, and may continue to experience, period-to-period fluctuations in net service revenue and results from
operations. Because we generate a large proportion of our revenues from services performed at hourly rates, our revenues in any period is directly related to the number of employees and the number of hours worked by those employees during that
period. Our results of operations in any one quarter can fluctuate depending upon, among other things, the number of weeks in the quarter, the number and related contract value of ongoing client engagements, the commencement, postponement and
termination of engagements in the quarter, the mix of revenue, the extent of cost overruns, employee hiring, employee utilization, vacation patterns, exchange rate fluctuations and other factors.

Reimbursable Out-of-Pocket Expenses

On behalf of our clients, we pay fees to investigators and other out-of-pocket costs for which we are reimbursed at cost, without mark-up or profit.
Effective January 1, 2002, in connection with the required implementation of Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Emerging Issues Task Force Rule No. 01-14 (EITF 01-14), Income Statement
Characterization of Reimbursements Received for Out-of-Pocket Expenses Incurred, out-of-pocket costs are now included in Operating Expenses, while the reimbursements received are reported separately as Reimbursement Revenue in
the Consolidated Statements of Operations.

As is customary in the industry, we will continue to exclude from revenue and expense in the
Consolidated Statements of Operations fees paid to investigators and the associated reimbursement since we act as an agent on behalf of the pharmaceutical company sponsors with regard to investigator payments, in accordance with the Financial
Accounting Standards Board Emerging Issues Task Force Rule No. 99-19 (EITF 99-19), Reporting Revenue Gross as a Principal versus Net as an Agent. These investigator fees are not reflected in our Net Revenue,
Reimbursement Revenue, Reimbursement Out-of-Pocket Expenses, and/or Direct Expenses. The amounts of these investigator fees were $1.3 million and $1.5 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2006, respectively. For the three
and nine months ended September 30, 2005, investigator fees were $69 thousand and $1.2 million, respectively.

Share-Based
Compensation

We have adopted equity incentive plans that provide for the granting of stock options to employees, directors,
advisors and consultants.

Effective January 1, 2006, we adopted SFAS No. 123R using the Modified Prospective Approach. SFAS
123(R) revises SFAS No. 123, Accounting for Stock Based Compensation (SFAS No. 123) and supersedes Accounting Principles Board (APB) Opinion No. 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to
Employees (APB No. 25). SFAS No. 123R requires the costs for all share-based payments to employees, including grants of employee stock options, to be recognized in financial statements based on their fair values at
grant date, or the date of later modification, over the requisite period. In addition, SFAS No. 123R requires unrecognized cost (based on the amounts previously disclosed in our pro forma footnote disclosure) related to options vesting after
the date of initial adoption to be recognized in the financial statements over the remaining requisite period. Accordingly, prior period amounts have not been restated. See Note 7 for further detail regarding the adoption of this standard.



|2. | RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING STANDARDS:
|-- | -------------------------------------

SFAS No. 155

In February 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued SFAS 155,
Accounting for Certain Hybrid Financial Instruments  an amendment of FASB Statement No. 133 and 140 (SFAS No. 155). SFAS 155 allows financial instruments that contain an embedded derivative that
otherwise would require bifurcation to be accounted for as a whole on a fair value basis. This statement is effective for all financial instruments acquired or issued after the beginning of the first fiscal year that begins after September 15,
2006. We do not expect that the adoption of SFAS 155 will have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements or results of operations.

##### Table of Contents

SFAS No. 156

In March 2006, the FASB issued SFAS 156, Accounting for Servicing of Financial Assets  an amendment of FASB Statement
No. 140. SFAS 156 provides guidance on the accounting for servicing assets and liabilities when an entity undertakes an obligation to service financial assets by entering into a servicing contract. This statement is effective
beginning in the first fiscal year that begins after September 15, 2006. We do not expect that the adoption of SFAS 156 will have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements or results of operations.

SFAS No. 157

In
September 2006, the FASB issued SFAS 157, Fair Value Measurement. SFAS 157 defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP), and expands disclosures about fair
value measurements. This statement is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007, and interim periods within those fiscal years. We do not expect that the adoption of SFAS 157 will have a material impact on our consolidated
financial statements or results of operations.

SFAS No. 158

In September 2006, the FASB issued SFAS 158, Employers Accounting for Defined Benefit Pension and Other Postretirement Plansan
amendment of FASB Statements No. 87, 88, 106, and 132(R). SFAS 158 requires an employer to recognize the overfunded or underfunded status of a defined benefit postretirement plan (other than a multiemployer plan) as an asset or
liability in its statement of financial position and to recognize changes in that funded status in the year in which the changes occur through comprehensive income of a business entity. SFAS 158 also requires an employer to measure the funded status
of a plan as of the date of its year-end statement of financial position, with limited exceptions. This statement is effective for the first fiscal year ending after December 15, 2006 for initial recognition and December 15, 2008 for
measurement of plan assets and benefit obligations. We are currently evaluating the future impact of SFAS 158 on our financial statements as a result of our acquisition of Remedium Oy.

SAB No. 108

In September
2006, the SEC Staff issued Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 108, Considering the Effects of Prior Year Misstatements when Quantifying Misstatements in the Current Year Financial Statements (SAB No. 108). SAB
No. 108 requires the use of two alternative approaches in quantitatively evaluating materiality of misstatements. If the misstatement as quantified under either approach is material to the current year financial statements, the misstatement
must be corrected. If the effect of correcting the prior year misstatements in the current year income statement is material, the prior year financial statements should be corrected. In the year of adoption the misstatements may be corrected as an
accounting change by adjusting opening retained earnings rather than being included in the current year income statement. This bulletin is effective for the first fiscal year ending after November 15, 2006. We are currently evaluating the
future impact of SAB No. 108 on our financial statements.

FIN No. 48

In September 2005, the FASB issued Financial Interpretation Number (FIN) 48, Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes, an interpretation of SFAS
109. FIN 48 prescribes a more likely than not threshold for financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. This Interpretation provides guidance regarding derecognition of income
tax assets and liabilities, interest and penalties associated with tax positions, accounting for income taxes in interim periods, and income tax disclosures. This Interpretation is effective as of January 1, 2007. We are currently evaluating
the impact of FIN 48 on our financial statements.



|3. | EARNINGS PER SHARE
|-- | ------------------

Earnings per share is
calculated in accordance with SFAS No. 128, Earnings Per Share. Basic earnings per share is computed by dividing net income for the period by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted
earnings per share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted average number of common shares plus the dilutive effect of outstanding stock options under our equity incentive plans. Stock options outstanding not included in the table below
because of their anti-dilutive effect for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2006 were 304,500 and 370,800, respectively. Stock options outstanding not included in the table below because of their anti-dilutive effect for the three
and nine months ended September 30, 2005 were 419,729 and 419,729, respectively.

The net income (loss) and weighted average common and
common equivalent shares outstanding for purposes of calculating net income (loss) per common share were computed as follows:

|6. | OTHER LIABILITIES
|-- | -----------------

As of January 1,
2003, the Company increased by approximately 12,700 to 34,000 the amount of square feet under lease in the same building. The term of the lease was also extended to 2009 and monthly lease payments increased from $50 thousand to $72 thousand. As an
incentive for the Company to acquire the additional space, the lessor granted the Company $814 thousand in lease incentives that were used to pay for architectural fees, renovations and improvement costs for the new space. The lease incentives were
capitalized as if the Company incurred the costs to make the improvements and are included in Property and Equipment. These assets and the related liability are amortized over the remaining life of the lease at a rate of approximately $116 thousand
per year as an additional amortization expense and a reduction in rent expense, respectively. The accounting for these lease incentives has no impact on net income, stockholders equity or cash flow.



|7. | STOCKHOLDERS EQUITY
|-- | -------------------

Share-Based
Compensation

Effective January 1, 2006 we adopted SFAS No. 123R using the Modified Prospective Approach. SFAS
No. 123R revises SFAS No. 123, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation (SFAS No. 123) and supersedes Accounting Principles Board (APB) Opinion No. 25, Accounting for Stock
Issued to Employees (APB No. 25). SFAS No. 123R requires the cost of all share-based payments to employees, including grants of employee stock options, to be recognized in the financial statements based on their fair
values at grant date, or the date of later modification, over the requisite service period. In addition, SFAS No. 123R requires unrecognized cost (based on the amounts previously disclosed in our pro forma footnote disclosure) related to
options vesting after the date of initial adoption to be recognized in the financial statements over the remaining requisite service period. Accordingly, prior period amounts have not been restated.

Under the Modified Prospective Approach, the amount of compensation expense recognized includes compensation expense for all share-based payments granted
prior to, but not yet fully vested as of January 1, 2006, based on the grant date fair value estimated in accordance with SFAS No. 123 and compensation expense for all share-based payments granted subsequent to January 1, 2006, based
on the grant date fair value estimated in accordance with SFAS No. 123R. Prior to adoption of SFAS 123R, we determined share-based compensation expense by applying the intrinsic value method provided for in APB Opinion No. 25.

##### Table of Contents

In the third quarter ending September 30, 2006, the adoption of SFAS 123R resulted in incremental
stock-based compensation expense of $87 thousand, or $0.01 on a basic and diluted earning per share basis. For the nine months ending September 30, 2006, the adoption of SFAS 123R resulted in incremental stock-based compensation expense of $302
thousand or $0.02 on a basic and diluted earning per share basis. The adoption of SFAS 123R did not have a net impact on cash flows from operating, investing or financing activities. A deduction is not allowed for income tax purposes until the
options are exercised. The amount of the income tax deduction will be the difference between the fair value of the Companys common stock and the exercise price at the date of exercise. The tax effect of the income tax deduction in excess of
the financial statement expense will be recorded as an increase in additional paid-in-capital. Accordingly, SFAS 123R requires the recognition of a deferred tax asset for the tax effect of the financial statement expense recorded. However, due to
our recent loss history, and uncertainty regarding the realization of deferred tax assets, deferred tax assets have been fully reserved as of September 30, 2006. The net operating losses incurred to date by the Company are being carried forward
and may be applied against future taxable income subject to certain limitations set forth in Section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code.

Prior to January 1, 2006 we accounted for our share-based compensation plans in accordance with the provisions of APB No. 25, as permitted by SFAS No. 123, and accordingly did not recognize compensation expense for stock
options with an exercise price equal to or greater than the market price of the underlying grant as of the grant date. Had the fair value-based method as prescribed by SFAS 123 been applied, additional pre-tax compensation expense of $245 thousand
and $356 thousand would have been recognized for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2005, respectively, and the effect on net income (loss) and earnings (loss) per share would have been as follows:

The Company has issued stock options to employees under share-based compensation plans. Stock
options are issued at the current market price on the date of the grant, subject to a 4 year vesting period with a contractual term of 5 years. The fair value of each stock option is estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option
pricing model that uses the assumptions noted in the following table. Expected volatility is based on historical volatility of our common stock. We use historical data on exercises of stock options and other factors to estimate the expected life of
the share-based payments granted. For the options

granted prior to January 1, 2006, we determined the expected life to be 5 years, and an expected life of 4 years for any options granted subsequent to
January 1, 2006. The risk free rate is based on the U.S. Treasury bond rate commensurate with the expected life of the option.

As of September 30, 2006, there was $494 thousand of total unrecognized compensation cost
related to unvested share-based compensation awards granted under the stock option plans. That cost is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 2.7 years.

Based upon the above assumptions, the weighted average fair value of the stock options granted for the nine months ended September 30, 2006 and 2005
was $1.22 and $1.01, respectively.

The Company has a policy of issuing new shares to satisfy share option exercises.

|9. | ACQUISITION OF REMEDIUM Oy
|-- | --------------------------

On July 6,
2006, Encorium Group, Inc. entered into an Amended and Restated Combination Agreement (the Amended Agreement) with the stockholders of Remedium Oy, a corporation organized under the laws of Finland (Remedium), which
amends and restates the Combination Agreement entered into on March 2, 2006. Pursuant to the Amended Agreement, the Company purchased all of the issued and outstanding shares of capital stock of Remedium (the Shares). The
transaction closed on November 1, 2006.

The consideration paid at closing to Remediums stockholders (the
Stockholders) for the Shares consisted of (i) shares of Common Stock of the Company with a value of $11,000,000; and (ii) $2,500,000 in cash. An additional cash payment of $1,500,000 will be paid to the
Stockholders on March 30, 2007. The Company intends to fund the remaining cash portion of the purchase price with internal resources. Subject to certain purchase price adjustments, on the first anniversary of the closing of the
Amended Agreement, the Company will issue to the Stockholders additional shares of Common Stock of the Company with a value of $2,000,000. Additional consideration consisting of shares of Common Stock of the Company with a value of up to
$3,000,000 may also be paid to the Stockholders upon the attainment of certain revenue targets described in the Amended Agreement.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2006, the Company incurred approximately $1.3 million of costs related to the Remedium acquisition which have been capitalized and are presented on the balance sheet as deferred acquisition
costs. The costs were primarily for professional fees and expenses related to the proposed acquisition.

A significant aspect of our strategy is to expand our geographic presence and add to our clinical development
capabilities in existing new therapeutic areas or service offerings. On July 6, 2006, we entered into an Amended and Restated Combination Agreement (the Amended Agreement) with the stockholders of Remedium Oy, a corporation
organized under the laws of Finland (Remedium), which amends and restates the Combination Agreement entered into on March 2, 2006. Pursuant to the Amended Agreement, at the closing, the Company purchased all of the issued and
outstanding shares of capital stock of Remedium (the Shares). The transaction closed on November 1, 2006.

The consideration paid to
Remediums stockholders (the Stockholders) at closing for the Shares consisted of (i) shares of Common Stock of the Company with a value of $11,000,000; and (ii) $2,500,000 in cash. An additional cash payment of
$1,500,000 will be paid to the Stockholders on March 30, 2007. The Company intends to fund the remaining cash portion of the purchase price with internal resources. Subject to certain purchase price adjustments, on the first
anniversary of the closing of the Amended Agreement, the Company will issue to the Stockholders additional shares of Common Stock of the Company with a value of $2,000,000. Additional consideration consisting of shares of Common Stock of
the Company with a value of up to $3,000,000 may also be paid to the Stockholders upon the attainment of certain revenue targets described in the Amended Agreement.

General

The information set forth and discussed below for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2006
and 2005 is derived from the Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements included elsewhere herein. The financial information set forth and discussed below is unaudited but, in the opinion of management, reflects all adjustments (primarily
consisting of normal recurring adjustments) necessary for a fair presentation of such information. The results of our operations for a particular quarter may not be indicative of results expected during the other quarters or for the entire year.

Our quarterly results can fluctuate as a result of a number of factors, including our success in attracting new business, the size and duration of
clinical trials, the timing of client decisions to conduct new clinical trials or to cancel or delay ongoing trials, changes in cost estimates to complete ongoing trials, and other factors, many of which are beyond our control.

Net revenue is derived principally from the design, management and monitoring of clinical research studies. Clinical research service contracts generally have terms
ranging from several months to several years. A portion of the contract fee is generally payable upon execution of the contract, with the balance payable in installments over the life of the contract. The majority of our net revenue is recognized
from fixed-price contracts on a proportional performance basis. To measure the performance, we compare actual direct costs incurred to estimated total contract direct costs, which we believe is the best indicator of the performance of the contract
obligations as the costs relate to the labor hours incurred to perform the service. Total direct costs are incurred for each contract and compared to estimated total direct costs for each contract to determine the percentage of the contract that is
completed. This percentage is multiplied by the estimated total contract value to determine the amount of net revenue recognized.

Contracts generally may
be terminated by clients immediately or with short notice. Clinical trials may be terminated or delayed for several reasons, including, among others, unexpected results or adverse patient reactions to the drug, inadequate patient enrollment or
investigator recruitment, manufacturing problems resulting in shortages of the drug or decisions by the client to de-emphasize or terminate a particular trial or development efforts on a particular drug. Depending on the size of the trial in
question, a clients decision to terminate or delay a trial in which we participate could have a material and adverse effect on our backlog, future revenue and results from operations.

##### Table of Contents

Our backlog was approximately $29.1 million as of September 30, 2006 as compared to $22.6 million as of
September 30, 2005. Our backlog consists of anticipated net revenue from signed contracts, letters of intent and certain verbal commitments that either have not started but are anticipated to begin in the near future or are in process and have
not yet been completed. Many of our studies and projects are performed over an extended period of time, which may be several years. Amounts included in backlog have not yet been recognized as net revenue in our Consolidated Statements of Operations.
Once contracted work begins, net revenue is recognized over the life of the contract on a proportional performance basis. The recognition of net revenue and contract terminations, if any, reduces our backlog while the awarding of new business
increases our backlog. For the nine months ended September 30, 2006 we obtained approximately $17.2 million of new business awards as compared to approximately $16.6 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2005.

We believe that our backlog as of any date may not necessarily be a meaningful predictor of future results because backlog can be affected by a number of factors
including the size and duration of contracts, many of which are performed over several years. Additionally, contracts relating to our clinical trial business may be subject to early termination by the client or delay for many reasons, as described
above. Also, the scope of a contract can change during the course of a study. For these reasons, we might not be able to fully realize our entire backlog as net revenue.

The following table sets forth amounts for certain items in our consolidated statements of operations expressed as a percentage of net revenue. The following table excludes revenue and costs related to reimbursable
out-of-pocket expenses because they are not generated by the services we provide, do not yield any gross profit to us, and do not have any impact on our net income. We believe this information is useful to our investors because it presents the net
revenue and expenses that are directly attributable to the services we provide to our clients and provides a more accurate picture of our operating results and margins.

In 2006, we anticipate capital expenditures of approximately $100,000$150,000 for leasehold improvements,
software applications, workstations, personal computer equipment and related assets exclusive of any capital expenditures related to the recently completed Remedium acquisition. A significant portion of our service agreement commitments, which are
primarily comprised of investigator payments, are expected to be reimbursed under agreements with clients. There have been no material changes to the above data since December 31, 2005.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

The following discussion should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto.

Our consolidated financial
statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The preparation of these financial statements requires management to make certain estimates, judgments and assumptions that
affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the periods presented. On an ongoing basis, management evaluates its judgments and estimates.
Management bases its judgments and estimates on historical experience and on various other factors that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.
Management considers the following policies to be most critical in understanding the more complex judgments that are involved in preparing our consolidated financial statements and the uncertainties that could affect our results of operations and
financial condition.

Revenue Recognition

The
majority of our net revenue is recognized from fixed price contracts on a proportional performance method based on assumptions regarding the estimated completion of the project. This method is used because management considers total costs incurred
to be the best available measure of progress on these contracts.

Each month costs are accumulated on each project and compared to total estimated cost to
complete to determine the degree of completion for that particular project. This determines the percentage of completion for the project. This percentage of completion is multiplied by the contract value to determine the amount of revenue to be
recognized. As the work progresses, original estimates may be adjusted due to revisions in the scope of work or other factors and a contract modification may be negotiated with the customer to cover additional costs. Our accounting policy for
recognizing revenue for changes in scope is to recognize revenue when the Company has reached agreement with the client, the services pursuant to the change in scope have been performed, the price has



19



---

##### Table of Contents

been set forth in the change of scope document and collectibility is reasonably assured based on our course of dealings with the client. We bear the risk of
cost overruns on work performed absent a signed contract modification. Because of the inherent uncertainties in estimating costs, it is reasonably possible that the cost estimates used will change in the near term and may have a material adverse
impact on our financial performance.

In the past, we have had to commit unanticipated resources to complete projects resulting in lower gross margins on
those projects. These unanticipated additional costs occurred on several long term contracts which we completed or substantially completed during 2004. These contracts spanned a period of three to six years. We may experience similar situations in
the future although our current contracts in process are of a shorter duration and subject to less cost volatility. Should our estimated costs on fixed price contracts prove to be low in comparison to actual costs, future margins could be reduced,
absent our ability to negotiate a contract modification.

Billings and the related payment terms from fixed price contracts are generally determined by
provisions in the contract that may include certain payment schedules and the submission of required billing detail. Accordingly, cash receipts, including the receipt of up front payments and performance based milestone payments, do not necessarily
correspond to costs incurred and revenue recognized on contracts. A contracts payment structure generally requires an up front payment of 10% to 15% of the contract value at or shortly after the initiation of the clinical trial, a series of
periodic payments over the life of the contract and, in certain instances, milestone payments based on the achievement of certain agreed upon performance criteria. The up front payments are deferred and recognized as revenues as services are
performed under the proportional performance method. Periodic payments, including, performance based milestone payments, are invoiced pursuant to the terms of the contract once the agreed upon performance criteria have been achieved. Milestone
payments are generally included in the total value of the contract. All payments received pursuant to the contract are recognized in accordance with the proportional performance method. In a comprehensive full service drug development program, the
client would not generally purchase certain deliverables separately but as an integrated, full service arrangement in connection with the development of the drug. Examples of performance based milestones and interim deliverables include, but are not
limited to, the completion of patient enrollment into the clinical trial, completion of the database and acceptance by the client of the final study report.

Clients generally may terminate a contract on short notice which might cause unplanned periods of excess capacity and reduced revenues and earnings. Client initiated delays or cancellations for ongoing clinical trials can come suddenly and
may not be foreseeable. To offset the effects of early termination of significant contracts, we attempt to negotiate the payment of an early termination fee as part of the original contract. Generally, we have not been successful in negotiating such
fees. Our contracts typically require payment to us of expenses incurred to wind down a study and fees earned to date. Therefore, revenue recognized prior to cancellation does not require a significant adjustment upon cancellation. If we determine
that a loss will result from the performance of a fixed price contract, the entire amount of the estimated loss is charged against income in the period in which such determination is made.

Our accounting policy for recognizing revenue for terminated projects requires us to perform a reconciliation of study activities versus the activities set forth in the
contract. We negotiate with the client, pursuant to the terms of the existing contract, regarding the wind up of existing study activities in order to clarify which services the client wants us to perform. Once we and the client agree on the
reconciliation of study activities and the agreed upon services have been performed by us, we would record the additional revenue provided collectibility is reasonably assured.

Our operations have experienced, and may continue to experience, period-to-period fluctuations in net service revenue and results from operations. Because we generate a large proportion of our revenues from services
performed at hourly rates, our revenues in any period is directly related to the number of employees and the number of hours worked by those employees during that period.

fluctuations and other factors.

Reimbursable Out-of-Pocket Expenses

On behalf of our clients, we pay fees to investigators and other out-of-pocket costs for which we are reimbursed at cost, without mark-up or profit. Effective January 1, 2002, in connection with the required
implementation of Financial Accounting Standards Board Emerging Issues Task Force Rule No. 01-14 (EITF 01-14), Income Statement Characterization of Reimbursements Received for Out-of-Pocket Expenses Incurred,
out-of-pocket costs are now included in Operating Expenses, while the reimbursements received are reported separately as Reimbursement Revenue in the Consolidated Statements of Operations.

As is customary in the industry, we will continue to exclude from revenue and expense in the Consolidated Statements of Operations fees paid to investigators and the
associated reimbursement since we act as an agent on behalf of the pharmaceutical company sponsors with regard to investigator payments, in accordance with the Financial Accounting Standards Board Emerging Issues Task Force Rule No. 99-19
(EITF 99-19), Reporting Revenue Gross as a Principal versus Net as an Agent. These investigator fees are not reflected in our Net Revenue, Reimbursement Revenue, Reimbursement Out-of-Pocket Expenses, and/or Direct
Expenses. The amounts of these investigator fees were $1.3 million and $1.5 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2006, respectively. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2005, investigator fees were $69
thousand and $1.2 million, respectively.

Concentration of Credit Risk

Our accounts receivable and costs and estimated earnings in excess of related billings on uncompleted contracts are concentrated with a small number of companies within the pharmaceutical, biotechnology and medical
device industries. The significant majority of this exposure is to established pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies. Credit losses have historically been minimal. As of September 30, 2006, the total of accounts receivable and costs and
estimated earnings in excess of related billings on uncompleted contracts was $3.5 million. Of this amount, the exposure to our largest clients was 73% of the total, with the largest clients representing 39%, 19%, 9% and 6% of total exposure,
respectively. As of September 30, 2005, the total of accounts receivable and costs and estimated earnings in excess of related billings on uncompleted contracts was $3.7 million. Of this amount, the exposure to our three largest clients was 76%
of the total, with the three largest clients representing 26%, 25%, and 25% of total exposure, respectively.

Operating Expenses

Direct expenses include amounts incurred during the period that are directly related to the management or completion of a clinical trial or related project and
generally include direct labor and related benefit charges, other direct costs and certain allocated expenses. Direct costs as a percentage of net revenues fluctuate from one period to another as a result of changes in the mix of services provided
and the various studies conducted during any time period. Selling, general and administrative expenses include the salaries, wages and benefits of all administrative, finance and business development personnel, and all other support expenses not
directly related to specific contracts.

Stock-Based Compensation

The Company has adopted equity incentive plans that provide for the granting of stock options to employees, directors, advisors and consultants.

Effective January 1, 2006, we adopted SFAS No. 123R using the Modified Prospective Approach. SFAS 123(R) revises SFAS No. 123, Accounting for Stock Based Compensation (SFAS
No. 123) and supersedes Accounting Principles Board (APB) Opinion No. 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees (APB No. 25). SFAS No. 123R requires the costs for all
share-based payments to employees, including grants of employee stock options, to be recognized in financial statements based on their fair values at grant date, or the date of later modification, over the requisite period. In addition, SFAS
No. 123R requires unrecognized cost (based on the amounts previously disclosed in our pro forma footnote disclosure) related to options vesting after the date of initial adoption to be recognized in the financial statements over the remaining
requisite period.

The grant date fair value of each stock option is based on the underlying price on the date of grant and is determined using an option
pricing model. The option pricing model requires the use of estimates and assumptions as to (a) the expected volatility of the price of underlying stock option (b) the expected life of the option (c) the risk free rate for the
expected life of the option and (d) forfeiture rates. The Company is currently using the Black-Scholes option pricing model to determine the grant date fair value of each stock option.

Expected volatility is based on historical volatility of our common stock. We use historical data on exercises of stock options and other factors to estimate the
expected life of the share-based payments granted. For the options granted prior to January 1, 2006, we determined the expected life to be 5 years, and an expected life of 4 years for any options granted subsequent to January 1, 2006. The
risk free rate is based on the U.S. Treasury bond rate commensurate with the expected life of the option. Forfeiture rates are estimated based upon past voluntary termination behavior and past option forfeitures.

The estimated annual increase in share-based compensation expense relating to the adoption of SFAS No. 123R for the twelve months ended December 31, 2006 is
expected to be $387 thousand. The Company recognized stock-based compensation expense of $87 thousand and $302 thousand for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2006, respectively, or $0.01 and $0.02 on a basic and diluted earning per
share basis.

Results of Operations

Three Months Ended September 30, 2006 Compared With Three Months Ended September 30, 2005

Net revenue for the three
months ended September 30, 2006 increased 35% to $3.7 million as compared to $2.7 million for the three months ended September 30, 2005. The increase in net revenues was primarily due to an increase in the number of staff being utilized in
our clinical study activities due to an increase in the number of contracts and related contract values of active clinical studies being conducted by the Company during the third quarter of 2006 compared to the same prior year period. There were
$6.6 million of announced new business awards for the three months ended September 30, 2006 compared to $6.8 million for the three months ended September 30, 2005. For the three months ended September 30, 2006, net revenue from our
largest clients amounted to 75% of our net revenue, with the largest clients representing 35%, 22%, 11%, and 7% of net revenue, respectively. For the three months ended September 30, 2005, net revenue from our largest clients amounted to 88% of
our net revenue, with the largest clients representing 32%, 25%, 17% and 14% of net revenue, respectively.

Reimbursement revenue consisted of reimbursable
out-of-pocket expenses incurred on behalf of our clients. Reimbursements are made at cost, without mark-up or profit, and therefore have no impact on net income.

Direct expenses included compensation and other expenses directly related to conducting clinical studies. These costs increased by approximately $153 thousand to $2.0 million for the three months ended September 30, 2006 from $1.9
million for the three months ended September 30, 2005. The increase in direct expenses resulted principally from the addition of staff needed to meet the resource requirements of active clinical studies during the third quarter of 2006. Direct
expenses as a percentage of net revenue were 56% for the three months ended September 30, 2006 as compared to 69% for the three months ended September 30, 2005. The improvement in gross margin was principally due to increased utilization
of our personnel on clinical study activities and an increase in the number of active clinical studies for the three months ended September 30, 2006 compared with the same prior year period.

Selling, general, and administrative expenses includes the salaries, wages and benefits of all administrative, financial and business development personnel and all other
support expenses not directly related to specific contracts. These costs remained relatively unchanged for the three months ended September 30, 2006 compared to the three months ended September 30, 2005. As a percentage of revenues,
SG&A expenses decreased by 10% for the three months ended September 30, 2006 compared with the prior year period. The decrease was primarily the result of additional revenue for the three months ended September 30, 2006 while SG&A
expenses were primarily unchanged.

Depreciation and amortization expense decreased to $79 thousand for the three months ended September 30, 2006 from
$122 thousand for the three months ended September 30, 2005, primarily as a result of reduced fixed asset additions in 2005 and 2006 compared to prior years which resulted in a reduction in the amount of depreciation expense incurred.

Income from operations increased by $852 thousand to $562 thousand for the three months ended September 30, 2006 as compared to a loss of $291
thousand from operations for the three months ended September 30, 2005, primarily for the reasons noted in the preceding paragraphs.

Net interest
income for the three months ended September 30, 2006 was $82 thousand compared to net interest income of $46 thousand for the three months ended September 30, 2005. This increase was due to a significant increase in the amount of cash on
hand combined with a higher rate of interest earned on invested cash deposits.

There was no income tax provision for the three months ended
September 30, 2006, because of offsetting income tax loss carry forwards from prior years. Our net income for the quarter ended September 30, 2006 was fully offset by available net operating losses. In addition, the Company may apply
existing tax loss carryforwards from 2005 against future taxable income subject to certain

limitations set forth in the Internal Revenue Code. However, due to our recent loss history, and uncertainty regarding the realization of deferred tax
assets, deferred tax assets have been fully reserved as of September 30, 2006.

Net income for the three months ended September 30, 2006 was $643
thousand, or $0.05 per diluted share, as compared to a net loss of $244 thousand, or $(0.02) per diluted share for the three months ended September 30, 2005.

Nine Months Ended September 30, 2006 Compared With the Nine Months Ended September 30, 2005

Net revenue for the nine
months ended September 30, 2006 increased 12% to $9.2 million as compared to $8.3 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2005. The increase of $990 thousand reflects an increase in the number of contracts and related contract
values of clinical trials being managed by us in 2006. New business awards and changes of scope for the nine months ended September 30, 2006 were approximately $17.2 million as compared to approximately $16.6 million for the nine months ended
September 30, 2005. For the nine months ended September 30, 2006, net revenue from our largest clients amounted to 68% of our net revenue, with the largest clients representing 23%, 22%, 12%, and 11% of net revenue, respectively. For the
nine months ended September 30, 2005, net revenue from our largest clients amounted to 69% of our net revenue, with the largest clients representing 26%, 23% and 20% of net revenue, respectively.

Reimbursement revenue consisted of reimbursable out-of-pocket expenses incurred on behalf of our clients. Reimbursements are made at cost, without mark-up or profit, and
therefore have no impact on net income.

Direct expenses included compensation and other expenses directly related to conducting clinical studies. These
costs remained relatively unchanged for the comparable nine months ended September 30, 2006 and 2005, respectively. Direct expenses as a percentage of net revenue were 62% for the nine months ended September 30, 2006 as compared to 68% for
the nine months ended September 30, 2005. The improvement in the gross margin was principally due to the 12% increase in revenues for the nine months ended September 30, 2006 while direct expenses were principally unchanged.

Selling, general, and administrative expenses included the salaries, wages and benefits of all administrative, financial and business development personnel and all other
support expenses not directly related to specific contracts. Selling, general and administrative expenses for the nine month period ended September 30, 2006 were $2.9 million, or 32% of net revenue, as compared to $3.1 million, or 38% of net
revenue, for the nine months ended September 30, 2005. The decrease of $162 thousand resulted principally from a reduction of professional fees incurred compared to the same prior year period. As a percentage of revenues, SG&A expenses
decreased by 6% for the nine months ended September 30, 2006 compared with the prior year period. This decrease resulted from the increase in revenue for the nine months ended September 30, 2006 while SG&A expenses were virtually
unchanged.

Depreciation and amortization expense decreased to $262 thousand for the nine months ended September 30, 2006 from $392 thousand for the
nine months ended September 30, 2005, primarily as a result of reduced fixed asset additions in 2005 and 2006 compared to prior years which resulted in a reduction in the amount of depreciation expense incurred. There was $89 thousand in fixed
asset additions during the nine months ended September 30, 2006 compared with $46 thousand for the comparable 2005 period.

Income from operations
increased by $1.2 million to $308 thousand for the nine months ended September 30, 2006 as compared to a loss of $906 thousand from operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2005, primarily for the reasons noted in the preceding
paragraphs.

Net interest income for the nine months ended September 30, 2006 was $228 thousand compared to net interest income of $80 thousand for
the nine months ended September 30, 2005 due to an increase in the amount of cash on hand and in the rate of interest earned on these deposits.

##### Table of Contents

There was no income tax provision for the nine months ended September 30, 2006 because of income tax loss
carryforwards from prior years which fully offset net income for the period. Net operating losses incurred in prior years are being carried forward and may be applied against future taxable income subject to certain limitations set forth in the
Internal Revenue Code. However, due to our recent loss history, and uncertainty regarding the realization of deferred tax assets, deferred tax assets have been fully reserved as of September 30, 2006.

Net income for the nine months ended September 30, 2006 was $535 thousand, or $0.04 per diluted share as compared to net loss of $826 thousand, or $(0.06) per
diluted share for the nine months ended September 30, 2005.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

The clinical research organization industry is generally not considered capital intensive. We expect to continue to fund our operations from existing cash resources and
cash flow from operations. We expect that our principal cash requirements on both a short and long-term basis will be for the funding of our operations and capital expenditures. We expect to continue expanding our operations through internal growth,
merger and acquisitions, expansion of our existing services, and the development of new products and services for the pharmaceutical, biotechnology and medical device industries. We believe that our existing cash resources and cash generated from
operations will provide sufficient liquidity for the foreseeable future. However, in the event that we make significant acquisitions in the future, we may need to raise additional funds through additional borrowings or the issuance of debt or equity
securities.

Our contracts usually require a portion of the contract amount to be paid at the time the contract is initiated. Additional payments are
generally made upon completion of negotiated performance milestones, or on a regularly scheduled basis, throughout the life of the contract. Accordingly, cash receipts do not necessarily correspond to costs incurred and revenue recognized. For
terminated studies, our contracts frequently entitle us to receive the costs of winding down the terminated project, as well as all fees earned by us up to the time of termination.

Net revenue is recognized on a proportional performance basis. We typically receive a low volume of large-dollar receipts. As a result, the number of days net revenue outstanding in accounts receivable, costs and
estimated earnings in excess of related billings, customer advances, and billings in excess of related costs will fluctuate due to the timing and size of billings and cash receipts. At September 30, 2006, the net days revenue outstanding was
(79) days compared to 49 days at December 31, 2005. This change was primarily due to favorable trends in our billing schedules as well as upfront payments received on recently signed contracts. Compared to December 31, 2005, accounts
receivable increased $1.6 million to $2.7 million at September 30, 2006, primarily due an increase in the number of ongoing active clinical studies along with the timing of billings and progress payments for clinical trials.

Compared to December 31, 2005, costs and estimated earnings in excess of related billings on uncompleted contracts increased $433 thousand to $817 thousand at
September 30, 2006. The increase primarily represents timing differences between the net revenue recognized on the trials being managed and the billing of milestones or payment schedules contained in the contracts with our clients. The balance
at September 30, 2006 primarily consisted of 4 clinical trials. The top four balances constituted 24%, 14%, 12% and 10% of the balance. This balance is mostly attributable to a delay in the timing of billings compared to when the work was
performed. The $1.4 million increase in the liability account, billings in excess of related costs and estimated earnings on uncompleted contracts, to $2.8 million as of September 30, 2006 from $1.3 million as of December 31, 2005,
resulted primarily from the signing of several contracts which included large up front payments. Customer advances increased by approximately $2.1 million to $3.1 million as of

##### Table of Contents

September 30, 2006 from $1.0 million as of December 31, 2005. This increase resulted primarily from an increase in the amount and value of upfront
payments received from clients for payment of investigator fees and pass through costs.

Our net cash provided by operating activities was $2.7 million for
the nine months ended September 30, 2006, compared to net cash provided by operating activities of $3.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2005. The $1.2 million decrease is primarily related to increases in accounts
receivable, costs and estimated earnings in excess of related billings, billings in excess of related costs and customer advances plus a decrease in accrued expenses for the nine months ended September 30, 2006 as compared to same prior year
period. Net cash used by investing activities for the nine months ended September 2006 was $1.0 million principally as a result of costs associated with the Remedium acquisition, which have been capitalized and presented on the balance sheet as
deferred acquisition costs. This transaction closed on November 1, 2006. This compares to net cash used by investing activities of $46 thousand for the nine months ended September 30, 2005, which consisted principally of capital equipment
purchases. Net cash used by financing activities was $22 thousand for the nine months ended September 30, 2006, compared with $7 thousand for the nine months ended September 30, 2005. The primary difference related to cash received from
the exercise of employee stock options during 2005.

As a result of these cash flows, our cash and cash equivalents balance at September 30, 2006 was
$8.7 million as compared to $7.1 million at December 31, 2005.

We purchased approximately $89 thousand of equipment for nine months ended
September 30, 2006. We anticipate capital expenditures of approximately $11,000$61,000, exclusive of the proposed Remedium acquisition, during the remainder of 2006, primarily for leasehold improvements, software applications,
workstations, personal computer equipment and related assets.

RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING STANDARDS:

SFAS No. 155

In February 2006, the Financial Accounting
Standards Board (FASB) issued SFAS 155, Accounting for Certain Hybrid Financial Instruments  an amendment of FASB Statement No. 133 and 140 (SFAS No. 155). SFAS 155 allows financial
instruments that contain an embedded derivative that otherwise would require bifurcation to be accounted for as a whole on a fair value basis. This statement is effective for all financial instruments acquired or issued after the beginning of the
first fiscal year that begins after September 15, 2006. We do not expect that the adoption of SFAS 155 will have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements or results of operations.

SFAS No. 156

In March 2006, the FASB
issued SFAS 156, Accounting for Servicing of Financial Assets  an amendment of FASB Statement No. 140. SFAS 156 provides guidance on the accounting for servicing assets and liabilities when an entity undertakes and
obligation to service financial assets by entering into a servicing contract. This statement is effective beginning in the first fiscal year that begins after September 15, 2006. We do not expect that the adoption of SFAS 156 will have a
material impact on our consolidated financial statements or results of operations.

##### Table of Contents

SFAS No. 157

In September 2006, the FASB issued SFAS 157, Fair Value Measurement. SFAS 157 defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP),
and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. This statement is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007, and interim periods within those fiscal years. We do not expect that the adoption of SFAS 157 will have a
material impact on our consolidated financial statements or results of operations.

SFAS No. 158

In September 2006, the FASB issued SFAS 158, Employers Accounting for Defined Benefit Pension and Other Postretirement Plansan amendment
of FASB Statements No. 87, 88, 106, and 132(R). SFAS 158 requires an employer to recognize the overfunded or underfunded status of a defined benefit postretirement plan (other than a multiemployer plan) as an asset or liability in its
statement of financial position and to recognize changes in that funded status in the year in which the changes occur through comprehensive income of a business. SFAS 158 also requires an employer to measure the funded status of a plan as of the
date of its year-end statement of financial position, with limited exceptions. This statement is effective for the first fiscal year ending after December 15, 2006 for initial recognition and December 15, 2008 for measurement of plan
assets and benefit obligations. We are currently evaluating the future impact of SFAS 158 on our financial statements as a result of our acquisition of Remedium Oy.

SAB No. 108

In September 2006, the SEC Staff issued Staff Accounting Bulletin
No. 108, Considering the Effects of Prior Year Misstatements when Quantifying Misstatements in the Current Year Financial Statements (SAB No. 108). SAB No. 108 requires the use of two alternative
approaches in quantitatively evaluating materiality of misstatements. If the misstatement as quantified under either approach is material to the current year financial statements, the misstatement must be corrected. If the effect of correcting the
prior year misstatements in the current year income statement is material, the prior year financial statements should be corrected. In the year of adoption the misstatements may be corrected as an accounting change by adjusting opening retained
earnings rather than being included in the current year income statement. This bulletin is effective for the first fiscal year ending after November 15, 2006. We are currently evaluating the future impact of SAB No. 108 on our financial
statements

FIN No. 48

In
September 2005, the FASB issued Financial Interpretation Number (FIN) 48, Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes, an interpretation of SFAS 109. FIN 48 prescribes a more likely than not threshold for financial statement recognition and
measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. This Interpretation provides guidance regarding derecognition of income tax assets and liabilities, interest and penalties associated with tax positions, accounting for
income taxes in interim periods, and income tax disclosures. This Interpretation is effective as of January 1, 2007. We are currently evaluating the impact of FIN 48 on our financial statements.

Market Risk

The fair value of cash and cash equivalents, investigator payment advances, accounts receivable, costs and estimated
earnings in excess of related billings on uncompleted contracts, accounts payable, accrued expenses and billings in excess of related costs and estimated earnings on uncompleted contracts are not materially different than their carrying amounts as
reported at September 30, 2005 and September 30, 2006.

As of September 30, 2006, the Company was not a counterparty to any forward foreign
exchange contracts or any other transaction involving a derivative financial instrument.
