CORD BLOOD AMERICA, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

MARCH 31, 2008



Note  1. Organization and Description of Business



Cord Blood America, Inc. ("CBAI"), formerly D&A Lending, Inc., was incorporated in the State of Florida on October 12, 1999. CBAI's headquarters are located in Los Angeles, California. CBAI is primarily a holding company whose subsidiaries include Cord Partners, Inc., CorCell Co. Inc., CorCell Ltd., (Cord), CBA Professional Services, Inc. D/B/A BodyCells, Inc. ("BodyCells"), CBA Properties, Inc. ("Properties"), and Career Channel Inc, D/B/A Rainmakers International ("Rain"). CBAI and its subsidiaries engage in the following business activities:

·

Properties was formed to hold the corporate trademarks and other intellectual property of CBAI.



·

Rain specializes in creating direct response television and radio advertising campaigns, including media placement and commercial production.



The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going-concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the settlement of liabilities and commitments in the normal course of business. The accompanying consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of assets and liabilities that may be necessary in the event CBAI cannot continue as a going concern.



Note  2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies



Basis of Presentation



The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements of Cord Blood America, Inc. have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for interim financial information and with Item 310 of Regulation S-B. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for complete financial statements. The consolidated financial statements reflect all normal recurring adjustments, which, in the opinion of management, are considered necessary for a fair presentation of the results for the periods shown. The results of operations for the periods presented are not necessarily indicative of the results expected for the full fiscal year or for any future period. Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current period presentation. The information included in these unaudited consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with Management's Discussion and Analysis and Plan of Operations contained in this report and the audited consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-KSB for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2007.



Basis of Consolidation



The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of CBAI and its wholly owned subsidiaries, Cord, CorCell Co, CorCell Ltd., BodyCells, Properties and Rain. Significant inter-company balances and transactions have been eliminated upon consolidation.



Deferred Revenue



Deferred revenue for Cord consists of payments for enrollment in the program and processing of umbilical cord blood by customers whose samples have not yet been collected, as well as the pro-rata share of annual storage fees for customers whose samples were stored during the year. For Cord customers who have enrolled in the Annual Payment Option, revenue is recognized in the amount of each payment as received. Deferred revenue for Rain consists of payments for per inquiry leads that have not yet been delivered or media buys that have not yet been placed.

Valuation of Derivative Instruments



SFAS No. 133 Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities requires that embedded derivative instruments be bifurcated and assessed, along with free-standing derivative instruments such as warrants, on their issuance date and in accordance with EITF 00-19 Accounting for Derivative Financial Instruments Indexed to, and Potentially Settled in, a Companys Own Stock to determine whether they should be considered a derivative liability and measure at their fair value for accounting purposes. In determining the appropriate fair value, the Company uses the Black-Scholes option pricing formula. At March 31, 2008, the Company adjusted its derivative liability to its fair value, and reflected the decrease in fair value of $215,496 in its statement of operations, as a reduction of interest expense.



Revenue Recognition



CBAI recognizes revenue under the provisions of Staff Accounting Bulletin ("SAB") 104 "Revenue Recognition". Cord provides a combination of products and services to customers. This combination arrangement is evaluated under Emerging Issues Task Force (Issue No. 00-21, "Revenue Arrangements with Multiple Deliverables," ("EITF 00-21"). EITF 00-21 addresses certain aspects of accounting for arrangements under multiple revenue generating activities. CBAI elected early adoption of EITF 00-21.



Cord Blood recognizes revenue from both enrollment fees and processing fees upon the completion of processing. Storage fees are recognized ratably over the contractual storage period.



Rain generates revenue from packaged advertising services, including media buying, marketing and advertising production services. Rain's advertising service revenue is recognized when the media ad space is sold and the advertising occurs. Rain's advertising production service revenue is derived through the production of an advertising campaign including, but not limited to, audio and video production, establishment of a target market and the development of an advertising campaign. Rain recognizes revenue generated from packaged advertising services provided to our clients using the "Gross" basis of Emerging Issues Task Force No. 99-19, "Reporting Revenue Gross as a Principal versus Net as an Agent" (EITF 99-19).



Rain's revenue recognition policy involves significant judgments and estimates about the ability to collect. We assess the probability of collection based on a number of factors, including past transaction history and/or the creditworthiness of our clients' customers, which is based on current published credit ratings, current events and circumstances regarding the business of our client's customer and other factors that we believe are relevant. If we determine that collection is not reasonably assured, we defer revenue recognition until such time as collection becomes reasonably assured, which is generally upon receipt of cash payment. Rain recognizes revenue generated through per inquiry advertising as the inquiry leads are delivered to the customer.



Cost of Services



Costs for Cord are incurred as umbilical cord blood is collected. These costs include the transport of the umbilical cord blood from the hospital to the lab, the labs processing fees, and royalties. Cord expenses costs in the period incurred and does not defer any costs of sales. Costs for Rain include commercial productions costs, lead generation costs and media buys.



Net Loss Per Share



Net loss per common share is calculated in accordance with SFAS No. 128, Earnings per Share. Basic net loss per share is computed by dividing the net loss by the weighted average common shares outstanding of 205,907,825 and 55,638,545 for the three-months ended March 31, 2008 and 2007, respectively. Outstanding options to acquire common stock and warrants are not included in the computation of net loss per common share because the effects of inclusion are anti-dilutive.



Recent Accounting Pronouncements



In September 2006, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 157, Fair Value Measurements(SFAS No. 157). SFAS No. 157 defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. SFAS No. 157 does not expand the use of fair value in any new circumstances. In February 2008, the FASB issued Staff Position No. FAS 157-1, which amended SFAS No. 157 to exclude SFAS No. 13, Accounting for Leases, and other accounting pronouncements that address fair value measurements for purposes of lease classification or measurement under Statement 13. However, this scope exception does not apply to assets acquired and liabilities assumed in a business combination. Also in February 2008, the FASB issued Staff Position No. FAS 157-2, which delayed the effective date of SFAS No. 157 for non-financial assets and liabilities, except those items recognized at fair value on an annual or more frequently recurring basis to fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2008 and interim periods within those fiscal years.  Adoption of SFAS No. 157 did not have a significant impact on the Companys consolidated financial statements.





8



---

In February 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 159, Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities(SFAS No. 159). SFAS No. 159 permits entities to choose to measure many financial assets and financial liabilities at fair value. Unrealized gains and losses on items for which the fair value option has been elected are reported in earnings. SFAS No. 159 is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007. Adoption of SFAS No. 159 did not have a significant impact on the Companys consolidated financial statements.



In June 2007, the FASB ratified the consensus on Emerging Issues Task Force (EITF) Issue No. 06-11, Accounting for Income Tax Benefits of Dividends on Share-Based Payment Awards(EITF 06-11). EITF 06-11 requires companies to recognize the income tax benefit realized from dividends or dividend equivalents that are charged to retained earnings and paid to employees for non-vested equity-classified employee share-based payment awards as an increase to additional paid-in capital. EITF 06-11 is effective for fiscal years beginning after September 15, 2007. The adoption did not have a significant impact on the Companys consolidated financial statements.



In June 2007, the FASB ratified the consensus reached on EITF Issue No. 07-3, Accounting for Nonrefundable Advance Payments for Goods or Services Received for Use in Future Research and Development Activities(EITF 07-3), which requires that nonrefundable advance payments for goods or services that will be used or rendered for future research and development activities be deferred and amortized over the period that the goods are delivered or the related services are performed, subject to an assessment of recoverability. EITF 07-3 will be effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2007. The adoption of EITF 07-3 did not have an impact on the Companys consolidated financial statements.



In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 160, Non-controlling Interests in Consolidated Financial Statements(SFAS No. 160) and a revision to SFAS No. 141, Business Combinations(SFAS No. 141R). SFAS No. 160 modifies the accounting for non-controlling interest in a subsidiary and the deconsolidation of a subsidiary. SFAS No. 141R establishes the measurements in a business combination of the identifiable assets acquired, the liabilities assumed and any non-controlling interest in the acquiree. Both of these related statements are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2008. Currently, the Company does not expect the adoption of SFAS No. 161 will have an impact on our consolidated financial statements.



In December 2007, the SEC issued Staff Accounting Bulletin 110 (SAB 110), which expresses the views of the Staff regarding use of a simplified method, as discussed in SAB 107, in developing an estimate of expected term of plain vanilla share options in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123R. SAB 110 will allow, under certain circumstances, the use of the simplified method beyond December 31, 2007 when a Company is unable to rely on the historical exercise data.



In March 2008, the Financial Accounting Standards Board or FASB issued SFAS No. 161, Disclosures about Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities, which amends SFAS No. 133. The statement is intended to improve transparency in financial reporting by requiring enhanced disclosures of an entitys derivative instruments and hedging activities and their effects on the entitys financial position, financial performance, and cash flows. SFAS 161 is effective prospectively for financial statements issued for fiscal years and interim periods beginning after November 15, 2008. Currently, the Company does not expect the adoption of SFAS No. 161 will have an impact on our consolidated financial statements.



Going Concern



CBAI's consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming it will continue as a going concern. CBAI has experienced recurring net losses from operations, which losses have caused an accumulated deficit of approximately $19.3 million as of March 31, 2008. In addition, CBAI has a working capital deficit of approximately $9.9 million as of March 31, 2008. These factors, among others, raise substantial doubt about CBAI's ability to continue as a going concern.



Management has been able, thus far, to finance the losses and the growth of the business, through private placements of its common stock, the issuance of debt and proceeds from the Equity Distribution Agreement, the Shelter Securities Purchase Agreement and the Enable Securities Purchase Agreement. CBAI is continuing to attempt to increase revenues within its core businesses. In addition, CBAI is exploring alternate ways of generating revenues through acquiring other businesses in the stem cell industry. As well, the Company has taken steps to reduce its overall spending through the reduction of headcount. The ongoing execution of CBAI's business plan is expected to result in operating losses over the next twelve months. There are no assurances that CBAI will be successful in achieving its goals of increasing revenues and reaching profitability.



In view of these conditions, CBAI's ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon its ability to meet its financing requirements, and to ultimately achieve profitable operations. Management believes that its current and future plans provide an opportunity to continue as a going concern. The accompanying consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded assets, or the amounts and classification of liabilities that may be necessary in the event CBAI cannot continue as a going concern.



Note 3.  Accrued Expenses

Note 4. Notes and Loans Payable



Shelter Island Opportunity Fund



In February 2007, the company contracted a note payable in the amount of $2,300,000. In connection with the agreement, the note holder was issued warrants to purchase shares of the Company at $0.037 per share. In March 2008, the Company offered the warrant holders to reduce the conversion price to $0.0086 per share, if exercised in March or April  2008. Warrant holders exercised warrants and purchased 9,272,000 shares at $0.0086. This was treated as an inducement to exercise, and it resulted in a gain of $62,941, as the value of the related derivative Liability was higher than the value of the modified warrants at the date of exercise.



Note 5. Commitments and Contingencies



Agreements



Progenitor Cell Therapy, LLC- The Company entered into an agreement on August 1, 2007, with Progenitor Cell Therapy, LLC (PCT) to process, test and store all umbilical cord blood samples collected.  The agreement has a five year term and contains termination provisions for each party.



Pharmastem

In March 2004, Cord entered into a Patent License Agreement with the holder of patents utilized in the collection, processing, and storage of umbilical cord blood to settle litigation against Cord for alleged patent infringements. The

Patent License Agreement calls for royalties of 15% of processing and storage revenue, with a minimum royalty of $225 per specimen collected, on all specimens collected after January 1, 2004 until the patents expire in 2010.



Employment Agreements



On January 1, 2006, CBAI entered into a one-year employment agreement with Matthew L. Schissler (the "Executive Agreement"). Pursuant to his Executive Agreement, Mr. Schissler serves as Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of CBAI at an annual salary of $150,000 through December 31, 2006.

Note 7. Share Based Compensation



Stock Option Plan



The Company's Stock Option Plan permits the granting of stock options to its employees, directors, consultants and independent contractors for up to 8.0 million shares of its common stock. The Company believes that such awards encourage employees to remain employed by the Company and also to attract persons of exceptional ability to become employees of the Company.



Stock options that vest at the end of a one-year period are amortized over the vesting period using the straight-line method. For stock options awarded using graded vesting, the expense is recorded at the beginning of each year in which a percentage of the options vests.



In the first three months of 2008, there were no options granted, forfeited or expired. The number of outstanding options at March 31, 2008 remains at 5,461,189, with an exercisable price of $0.28 and approximately 6.8 years remaining. The number of exercisable options at March 31, 2008 remains at 4,391,521 with an exercise price of $0.29 and approximately 5.1years remaining.

ITEM  2. MANAGEMENTS DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS



Forward Looking Statements



In addition to the historical information contained herein, we make statements in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-QSB that are forward-looking statements. Sometimes these statements will contain words such as "believes," "expects," "intends," "should," "will," "plans," and other similar words. Forward-looking statements include, without limitation, our ability to increase income streams, to grow revenue and earnings, and to obtain additional cord blood banking revenue streams. Actual results could differ materially from those projected in the forward-looking statements as a result of a number of risks and uncertainties.



The following information should be read in conjunction with our March 31, 2008 consolidated financial statements and related notes thereto included elsewhere in the quarterly report and with our consolidated financial statements and notes thereto for the year ended December 31, 2007 and the related "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations" contained in our annual Report on Form 10-KSB for the year ended December 31,

2007. We also urge you to review and consider our disclosures describing various risks that may affect our business, which are set forth under the heading "Risk Factors Related to our Business" in our annual Report on Form 10-KSB for the year ended December 31, 2007.



Summary and Outlook of the Business



CBAI is an umbilical cord blood stem cell preservation company with a particular focus on the acquisition of customers in need of family based products and services. We also provide television, radio and internet advertising services to businesses that sell family based products and services.



We operate two core businesses:



·

Cord operates the umbilical cord blood stem cell preservation operations, and

·

Career Channel, Inc. D/B/A Rainmakers International ("Rain") operates the television and radio advertising operations.



Cord



The umbilical cord blood stem cell preservation operations provide umbilical cord blood banking services to expectant parents throughout all 50 United States. Our corporate headquarters are located in Los Angeles, CA. Cord also maintains offices in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, which were the former offices of the CorCell operations and are leased from CorCell, Inc. Cord earns revenue through a one-time enrollment and processing fee, and through an annually recurring storage and maintenance fee. Cord blood testing, processing, and storage is conducted by our outsourced laboratory partner, formerly Bergen Community Regional Blood Services, located in Paramus, New Jersey. On August 1, 2007, CBAI entered into an agreement with Progenitor Cell Therapy, LLC, (PCT) for testing, processing and storage of cord blood samples.  The Company believes this transition from Bergen to PCT will provide additional leverage to operating costs and efficiencies while maintaining the highest of quality standards. We provide the following services to each customer. In addition, some storage services are provided by ThermoFisher of Rockville, Maryland.



·

Collection Materials. We provide a medical kit that contains all of the materials necessary for collecting the newborns umbilical cord blood at birth and packaging the unit for transportation. The kit also provides for collecting a maternal blood sample for later testing.

·

Physician And Customer Support. We provide 24-hour consulting services to customers as well as to physicians and labor and delivery personnel, providing any instruction necessary for the successful collection, packaging, and transportation of the cord blood & maternal blood samples.

·

Transportation. We coordinate the transportation of the cord blood unit to our laboratory partner, Progenitor Cell Therapies, immediately following birth. This process utilizes a private medical courier, Airnet, for maximum efficiency and security.

·

Comprehensive Testing. At the laboratory, the cord blood sample is tested for stem cell concentration levels, bacteria and blood type.  The maternal blood sample is tested for infectious diseases. We report these results to the newborns mother.

·

Cord Blood Preservation. After processing and testing, the cord blood unit is cryogenically frozen in a controlled manner and stored in liquid nitrogen for potential future use. Data indicates that cord blood retains viability and function for at least fifteen years when stored in this manner and theoretically could be maintained at least as long as the normal life span of an individual.

---

We believe Cords revenue and gross profit will benefit from the asset purchase of CorCell. Going forward, management will continue to assess the market conditions, particularly related to the cost of customer acquisition, and whether organic growth or continued M&A activity will lead CBAI closer to profitability.



Rain



Rain



Rain, the television, radio, on-hold and motor sports advertising operations, are located in the corporate headquarters in Los Angeles, CA. The offices were relocated from Carlsbad, CA in September 2006. Rain provides advertising and direct marketing customers a range of services including:



·

the placement of advertising in television, radio, on-hold and motor sports outlets;

·

the production of advertising content, including television commercials and radio copy, which is outsourced to third party production companies; and

·

advertising and marketing consulting services which can include assistance in not only developing an advertising program, but helping the client to develop the particular product or service, determine the appropriate market and design and implement an overall marketing program and strategy.



A majority of Rain's revenues are earned via direct response media buys and per inquiry campaigns. For direct response, we currently buy television and radio schedules for our clients on a national and local level. Our national television outlets include Directv, DISH Network, Comcast Digital, national cable networks and various local cable interconnects. We buy time with numerous national radio networks including Premiere Radio, Clear Channel, Westwood One and Jones Radio Network, along with a variety of local radio stations. For per inquiry advertising, we focus on national campaigns. The placements are made using our internal media buyers and other agencies with which we have formed strategic marketing alliances. We also generate revenues through the commercial production aspect of our business using production partners in Florida and California.  Our on-hold advertising is placed on a clients telephone system.  Production is outsourced to AudioMenu of Fort Lauderdale, FL.  Motor sports sponsorship is placed on vehicles in various motor sports circuits.  Most advertising has been placed with BAM Racing; LLC.  In January of 2008 we entered in a non-exclusive agreement with BAM Racing, LLC.  The agreement compensates for sales of sponsorship of NASCAR Sprint Cup Team #49.



BodyCells



We are continuing to pursue other growth opportunities by acquisition or internal growth. The development of BodyCells, which is anticipated to facilitate the collecting, processing and preserving of peripheral blood and adipose tissue stem cells allowing individuals to privately preserve their stem cells for potential future use in stem cell therapy, is currently suspended pending the identification of an alternative lab to partner.



Results of Operations for the Three-Months Ended March 31, 2008



For the three months ended March 31, 2008, our total revenue decreased $269,413 or 16% to $1,428,590. Rains revenues decreased $359,000, or 44%, due to a change in the business model.  Rain is focused on creating an annuity base business with high volume advertising.  Historically, Rain was reliant on a few large advertising contracts, and the risks associated with those.  Understanding that it would be difficult to value a few contracts, Rain made a decision in December of 2007 to focus on low cost, high volume, annuity based advertising.  The result in this change for the first quarter was a loss in revenue.  Cords revenues increased $91,000 or 10% to $981,000, despite significant cutbacks in marketing and advertising.  Cord remains focused on strategic organic growth and accretive acquisition strategies, which will limit the losses and negative cash flow.



Cost of services decreased 29% or by $314,000 as a result of lower revenues, but Gross Profit increased from 35% of revenues to 45%, due to a significantly higher proportion of revenues coming from the higher margin Cord business. The Company anticipates that through the continued growth and expansion of its Cord business, they will increasingly benefit from economies of scale in that business segment.





15



---

Administrative and selling expenses decreased by approximately $71,000 or 6% from the prior comparative period to $1,048,000. The Company reduced its expenses in marketing and advertising by $127,000 as compared to the comparative period, due to cash restrictions. In the first three months of 2008, it also reduced its capital raising costs by $150,000. These decreases were offset this quarter by an increase in Wages of $230,000, primarily do to the acquisition in March, 2007 of CorCell and an increase in Rent and office expenses of $85,000, again due to the absorption of the rental costs at the CorCell office.  The Company has had to raise additional debt to finance both its acquisitions as well as its operating losses. Consequently, interest costs increased 54% from $550,000 to $845,000. All interest charges during the period have been accrued.



Our net loss from continuing operations increased by $175,000, or 16% from the prior comparative period.



Liquidity and Capital Resources



We have experienced net losses from continuing operations of $1,249,410 and $1,073,519 for the three months ended March 31, 2008 and 2007, respectively. At March 31, 2008, we had $151,906 in cash. We currently collect cash receipts from operations through both of our subsidiaries: Cord and Rain. Cord's cash flows from operations are not currently sufficient to fund operations in combination with its corporate expenses. Because of this shortfall, we have had to obtain additional capital through other sources as discussed in Note 5, Notes and Loans Payable.



Since inception, we have financed cash flow requirements through the issuance of common stock and warrants for cash, services and loans. As we expand our operational activities, we may continue to experience net negative cash flows

from operations and we will be required to obtain additional financing to fund operations through equity offerings and borrowings to the extent necessary to provide working capital. Financing may not be available, and, if available, it may not be available on acceptable terms. Should we secure such financing, it could have a negative impact on our financial condition and our shareholders. The sale of debt would, among other things, adversely impact our balance sheet, increase our expenses and increase our cash flow requirements. The sale of equity would, among other things, result in dilution to our shareholders. If our cash flows from operations are significantly less than projected, then we would either need to cut back on our budgeted spending, look to outside sources for additional funding or a combination of the two. If we are unable to access sufficient funds when needed, obtain additional external funding or generate sufficient revenue from the sale of our products, we could be forced to curtail or possibly cease operations.



ITEM 4T.  CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES



Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures



It is management's responsibility to establish and maintain adequate internal control over all financial reporting pursuant to Rule 13a-15 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the "Exchange Act"). The Companys management, including the principal executive officer, the principal operations officer, and the principal financial officer, have reviewed and evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of a date within ninety (90) days of the filing date of this Form 10-Q quarterly report.  Following this review and evaluation, management collectively determined that our disclosure controls and procedures are effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act (i) is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in SEC rules and forms, and (ii) is accumulated and communicated to management, including our chief executive officer, our chief operations officer, and our chief financial officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.



Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting



There were no significant changes in the Company's internal controls over financial reporting or in other factors during the three months ended March 31, 2008 that could significantly affect these internal controls subsequent to the date of their most recent evaluation, including any corrective actions with regard to significant deficiencies and material weaknesses.  It should be noted that the design of any system of controls is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions, regardless of how remote.

ITEM 2.  UNREGISTERED SALES OF EQUITY SECURITIES AND USE OF PROCEEDS



We have issued the following securities in the first three months of 2008 without registering them under the Securities Act of 1933:



Unless otherwise noted in this section, with respect to the sale of unregistered securities referenced above, all transactions were exempt from registration pursuant to Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "1933 Act"), and Regulation D promulgated under the 1933 Act. In each instance, the purchaser had access to sufficient information regarding CBAI so as to make an informed investment decision. More specifically, we had a reasonable basis to believe that each purchaser was an "accredited investor" as defined in Regulation D of the 1933 Act and otherwise had the requisite sophistication to make an investment in CBAI's securities.
