PART I





The following contains forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties. The Company’s actual results could differ materially from those discussed in the forward-looking statements as a result of certain factors, including those set forth in “Management’s 2011 Plan of Operations” as well as those discussed elsewhere in this Form 10-K. The following discussion should be read in conjunction with the Financial Statements and the Notes thereto included elsewhere in this Form 10-K.




ITEM 1.
BUSINESS.




General




We are a Texas corporation formed in 1984 engaged in developing biologics for the treatment of human and animal diseases. We focus our research on the treatment of human disease indications, particularly influenza, using natural human interferon alpha that is administered in a proprietary low dose oral form.





We currently own or license six issued patents related to the low-dose oral delivery of interferon and one issued patent on our dietary supplement, Maxisal(R).  We have completed more than 100 pre-clinical (animal) and human studies on the safety and efficacy of low-dose orally administered interferon.  We have filed with the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (“FDA”), and there now are in effect, six Investigational New Drug (“IND”) Applications covering indicated uses for low-dose oral interferon alpha, including influenza, chronic cough, and hepatitis C virus infection.





Our funding strategy is to seek private placement and pharma partner funding to complete Phase 2 clinical studies for influenza, chronic cough in COPD patients, and hepatitis C; then to find large pharma partners to fund Phase 3 clinical studies and assist with the regulatory approval process in the United States and Europe.

Technology





Injectable interferon is FDA-approved to treat some neoplastic, viral and autoimmune diseases.  Many patients experience moderate to severe side effects that result in discontinuance of injectable interferon therapy. Our main product is a natural human interferon alpha delivered into the oral cavity as a lozenge in low (nanogram) doses. The lozenge dissolves in the mouth where interferon binds to surface (mucosal) cells in the mouth and throat resulting in stimulation of immune mechanisms.  Orally delivered interferon has been shown to activate hundreds of immune system genes in the peripheral blood.  Human studies have shown that oral interferon is safe and effective against viral and autoimmune diseases. Oral interferon is given in concentrations 10,000 times less than that usually given by injection. The Company’s low dose formulation results in almost no side effects; high dose injectable interferon causes adverse effects in at least 50% of recipients.





The Company has a dietary supplement product, anhydrous crystalline maltose (ACM) that is useful in the symptomatic relief of dry mouth. ACM is licensed to distributors in the US and overseas for incorporation into healthcare products aimed at alleviating dry mouth.





Governmental or FDA approval is required for our principal product.  Our progress toward approval is discussed under each specific indication, below.







Influenza





Influenza, commonly referred to as the flu, is an infectious disease caused by RNA viruses of the family Orthomyxoviridae, that affects birds and mammals. The most common symptoms of the disease are chills, fever, sore throat, muscle pains, severe headache, coughing, weakness/fatigue and general discomfort. Influenza spreads around the world in seasonal epidemics, resulting in the deaths of between 250,000 and 500,000 people every year, up to millions in some pandemic years. On average 41,400 people died each year in the United States between 1979 and 2001 from influenza. Two publications in the April 2009 issue of the Journal of Virology report that interferon placed in the nose of guinea pigs or ferrets significantly suppresses replication of influenza virus.  These publications reinforce the Company’s view that low-dose interferon is protective against influenza.





Further support of the efficacy of oral interferon against influenza was generated by The University of Western Australia in a Phase 2 clinical trial with 200 healthy volunteers during the 2009 winter cold/flu season in Australia. The study found that volunteers who took oral interferon had less severe cold/flu symptoms, compared to volunteers who received placebo. Publication of these results is pending.





In January 2011, CytoPharm, Inc., ABI’s licensee for Taiwan and China, launched an influenza treatment study in Taiwan. Up to 60 patients being treated with Tamiflu for influenza A infection of less than 48 hours’ duration may be randomly assigned to co-treatment with oral IFN or placebo. The aim of the study is to examine whether the combination of oral IFN and Tamiflu is superior to Taimflu alone in the treatment of influenza illness. Results are expected in the second half of 2011.

Chronic Cough in COPD





COPD affects approximately 10% of the population over 40, is a growing problem, and is the 4th leading cause of death in the world.  Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is a clinical condition with a progressive airflow limitation that is poorly reversible and characteristic of chronic bronchitis and emphysema.  The causes of COPD include tobacco smoke, occupational dusts, chemicals, vapors and environmental pollutants.  COPD is estimated to affect more that 600 million people worldwide. There are no effective therapies for emphysema, nor are there efficient clinical management strategies.





Data from a Phase 2 clinical study at Texas Tech University shows that treatment with oral interferon leads to a rapid and significant reduction in the cough associated with idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF), resulting in improved quality of life.  Blinded, controlled studies in the US and Canada showed that oral interferon relieves chronic coughing in horses with COPD-like disease.  A proof-of-concept study of low-dose oral interferon as treatment of chronic cough is ongoing at Texas Tech University. This  clinical study is a Phase 2, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, parallel trial in which 40 eligible volunteers with IPF- or COPD-associated chronic cough will be randomly assigned to one of two groups in equal numbers to receive either oral interferon or placebo lozenges. Treatment will be given three times daily for 4 weeks, and patients will be followed for 4 weeks post-treatment to assess durability of response. The study will evaluate the ability of oral interferon to reduce the frequency and severity of chronic cough, compared to placebo.





Hepatitis C





ABI’s licensee CytoPharm, Inc. is funding an ongoing Phase 2 study of oral interferon treatment of hepatitis C virus-infected patients in Taiwan.  The study is exploring the ability of oral interferon to reduce virologic relapse in patients who have completed standard therapy with pegylated interferon plus Ribavirin.  Up to 50% of patients with certain genotypes of HCV relapse after receiving standard therapy, so reducing this relapse rate will represent a major breakthrough in the management of HCV.Completion of the study is expected by the end of 2011 with final results to be available in early 2012. Enrollment was completed in 2010 with 167 subjects.





Strategic Alliance with HBL





Hayashibara Biochemical Laboratories, Inc. (“HBL”) was established in 1970 to engage in research and development. It is a subsidiary of Hayashibara Company, Ltd., a privately-owned Japanese holding corporation with diversified subsidiaries. For more than 130 years, the Hayashibara Company, Ltd. and its predecessors have been applying microbiological technology to the starch industry for the production of maltose and other sugars.





In 1981, HBL established the Fujisaki Institute to accelerate development of industrial methods for the production of biologics and to sponsor clinical trials for such products. In 1985, HBL built the Fujisaki Cell Center to support basic research. In 1987, HBL successfully accomplished the mass production of human cells in an animal host by producing human cells in hamsters. This made it possible to economically produce a natural form of human interferon alpha and other biologics. HBL also has developed and obtained patents for technology relating to the production of interferon alpha-containing lozenges by which the stability of the interferon alpha activity can be maintained for up to 24 months at room temperature and up to five years if the product is refrigerated. We believe that the


4


use of such lozenges gives us advantages over competitive technologies in terms of cost, taste and ease of handling. On March 13, 1992, we entered into a Joint Development and Manufacturing/Supply Agreement with HBL (the “Development Agreement”). Such Development Agreement was subsequently amended on January 17, 1996; May 10, 1996; and September 7, 2001.  The current expiration date of the Development Agreement is March 12, 2014, at which time it will automatically renew for an additional three (3) years, unless the parties agree otherwise. Among other things, the Development Agreement provides us with a source of natural human interferon alpha for use in the Company’s interferon alpha-containing products.





HBL is part of the Hayashibara Group of companies, which announced on February 2, 2011 on its website in Japan that it had filed a petition for corporate reorganization with the Tokyo District Court. In a letter to customers dated February 2, 2011, Mr. Hideki Matsushima, who has been appointed by the Tokyo District Court to be the provisional administrator of HBL, made the following statement, “We believe that we will be able to ensure a stable supply of our products, since we have been permitted by the Tokyo District Court to pay our debts to our suppliers related to the purchase of raw materials for our products, on the condition that our suppliers will continue to do business with us under the pre-existing payment terms and conditions.” Based on this statement from Mr. Matsushima, ABI does not expect any disruption in the supply of interferon or ACM from HBL.





Strategic Alliance with Nobel





A licensing and supply agreement was executed in September 2004 with a Turkish pharmaceutical company, NOBEL ILAC SANAYII VE TICARET A.S., providing the rights to oral low-dose interferon-alpha for the treatment of Behcet’s disease in Turkey and in Azerbaijan, Bosnia & Herzegovina, Bulgaria, Croatia, Georgia, Kazakhstan, Kyrghyzstan, Macedonia, Romania, Russia, Saudi Arabia, Slovenia, Tajikistan, Turkmenistan, Uzbekistan, and Federal Republic of Yugoslavia.

The terms of the agreement call for Bumimedic to manufacture lozenges from bulk natural human IFN (supplied by Hayashibara Biochemical Laboratories); package the lozenges and distribute them to local hospitals, pharmacies and clinics in Malaysia. Pursuant to the agreement, the Company will receive a series of payments, in three stages: upon formal execution of the distribution agreement, upon regulatory approval, and upon production. The Company will also receive a royalty on the sale of the natural human IFN.





Strategic Alliance with CytoPharm





In November 2006, the Company entered into a License and Supply Agreement with CytoPharm, Inc., a Taipei, Taiwan-based biopharmaceutical company whose parent company is Vita Genomics, Inc., the largest biotech company in Taiwan, specializing in pharmacogenomics and is a specialty Clinical Research Organization. Under the terms of the Agreement, CytoPharm and its subsidiary will conduct all clinical trials, and seek to obtain regulatory approvals in both China and Taiwan (the “Territory”) to launch our low dose oral interferon in the Territory for influenza and hepatitis B (“HBV”) and hepatitis C (“HCV”) indications.  According to the Agreement, CytoPharm will make


5


payments to the Company upon reaching certain milestones and will also pay royalties on low dose oral interferon sales in the Territory.





In March 2008, the Company entered into a Supply Agreement for Animal Health with CytoPharm, Inc.  Under the terms of the Agreement, CytoPharm will conduct all clinical trials, and seek to obtain regulatory approvals in China and Taiwan (the “Territory”) to launch our low dose oral interferon in the Territory for treatment of diseases and other healthcare applications of swine, cattle and poultry.  CytoPharm will make payments to us upon reaching certain milestones and will also pay royalties on low dose oral interferon sales in the Territory.





Strategic Alliance with Cyto Biotech





On February 6, 2009, the Company entered into a License and Supply Agreement (LSA) with Cyto Biotech, Inc. a Taipei, Taiwan animal health company.  Under the terms of the agreement, Cyto Biotech, was obligated, at its sole expense and cost, to conduct all clinical trials and studies and seek to obtain regulatory approvals in China, Taiwan, Thailand, the Philippines, Cambodia, Vietnam and Malaysia (“the Territory”), subject to the existing license and supply agreements with CytoPharm, Inc. and Bumimedic SDN. BHD., required for the commercial launch of our low dose oral interferon in the Territory for any animal and human health indications. The Company terminated the LSA on February 7, 2011 for cause.





Strategic Alliance with Intas Pharmaceuticals





On January 7, 2010, the Company entered into a License and Supply Agreement with Intas Pharmaceuticals Ltd., an India-based pharmaceutical company with three decades of experience in the healthcare industry and a global presence in 42 countries worldwide. Under the terms of the agreement, Intas will pay the Company a royalty on net sales in India and Nepal after marketing approval is obtained.





Strategic Alliance with Cadila Healthcare

Publishing




A manuscript by Lutherer and others titled “Low-dose oral interferon α possibly retards the progression of idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis and alleviates associated cough in some patients” was published online in Thorax in September 2010. This study showed that interferon lozenges supplied by ABI reduced chronic cough and appeared to slow the progression of disease in patients with idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis, a fatal lung scarring disease.





A manuscript by Razzuoli and other titled, “Clinical chemistry parameters of piglets at weaning are modulated by an oral, low-dose interferon-alpha treatment” was published in Veterinary Research Communications in June 2010. This study showed the ability of orally administered interferon to reduce the stress of early weaning on piglets.

Cost of Compliance with Environmental Regulations





We incurred no costs to comply with environment regulations in 2010.







Competition





The pharmaceutical industry is an expanding and rapidly changing industry characterized by intense competition. We believe that our ability to compete will be dependent in large part upon our ability to continually enhance and improve our products and technologies. In order to do so, we must effectively utilize and expand our research and development capabilities and, once developed, expeditiously convert new technology into products and processes, which can be commercialized. Competition is based primarily on scientific and technological superiority, technical support, availability of patent protection, access to adequate capital, the ability to develop, acquire and market products and processes successfully, the ability to obtain governmental approvals and the ability to serve the particular needs of commercial customers.  Corporations and institutions with greater resources than us, therefore, have a significant competitive advantage. Our potential competitors include entities that develop and produce therapeutic agents for treatment of human and animal disease. These include numerous public and private academic and research organizations and pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies pursuing production of, among other things, biologics from cell cultures, genetically engineered drugs and natural and chemically synthesized drugs. Almost all of these potential competitors have substantially greater capital resources, research and development capabilities, manufacturing and marketing resources and experience than us. Our competitors may succeed in developing products or processes that are more effective or less costly than any that may be developed by us or that gain regulatory approval prior to our products.  We also expect that the number of competitors and potential competitors will increase as more interferon alpha products receive commercial marketing approvals from the FDA or analogous foreign regulatory agencies. Any of these competitors may be more successful than us in manufacturing, marketing and distributing its products. There can be no assurance that we will be able to compete successfully.





United States Regulation





Before products with health claims can be marketed in the United States, they must receive approval from the FDA. To receive this approval, any drug must undergo rigorous preclinical testing and clinical trials that demonstrate the product candidate’s safety and effectiveness for each indicated use. This extensive regulatory process controls, among other things, the development, testing, manufacture, safety, efficacy, record keeping, labeling, storage, approval, advertising, promotion, sale, and distribution of pharmaceutical products.





In general, before any ethical pharmaceutical product can be marketed in the United States, the process typically required by the FDA:





•
preclinical laboratory and animal tests;•
submission of an investigational new drug application, or IND, which must become effective before human clinical trials may begin;


8





•
adequate and well-controlled human clinical trials to establish the safety and efficacy of the proposed drug for its intended use;•
pre-approval inspection of manufacturing facilities and selected clinical investigators;•
Submission of a New Drug Application (NDA) to the FDA; and•
FDA approval of an, or NDA, or of an NDA supplement (for subsequent indications or other modifications, including a change in location of the manufacturing facility).





Preclinical Testing





In the United States, drug candidates are tested in animals until adequate proof of safety and efficacy is established. These preclinical studies generally evaluate the mechanism of action and pharmacology of the product and assess the potential safety and efficacy of the product. Tested compounds must be produced according to applicable current good manufacturing practice (cGMP) requirements and preclinical safety tests must be conducted in compliance with FDA and international regulations regarding good laboratory practices (GLP). The results of the preclinical tests, together with manufacturing information and analytical data, are generally submitted to the FDA as part of an investigational new drug application, or IND, which must become effective before human clinical trials may commence. The IND will automatically become effective 30 days after receipt by the FDA, unless before that time the FDA requests an extension or raises concerns about the conduct of the clinical trials as outlined in the application. If the FDA has any concerns, the sponsor of the application and the FDA must resolve the concerns before clinical trials can begin. Regulatory authorities may require additional preclinical data before allowing the clinical studies to commence or proceed from one Phase to another, and could demand that the studies be discontinued or suspended at any time if there are significant safety issues. Furthermore, an independent institutional review board, or IRB, for each medical center proposing to participate in the conduct of the clinical trial must review and approve the clinical protocol and patient informed consent form before the center commences the study.





Clinical Trials





Clinical trials for new drug candidates are typically conducted in three sequential phases that may overlap. In Phase 1, the initial introduction of the drug candidate into human volunteers, the emphasis is on testing for safety or adverse effects, dosage, tolerance, metabolism, distribution, excretion, and clinical pharmacology. Phase 2 involves studies in a limited patient population to determine the initial efficacy of the drug candidate for specific targeted indications, to determine dosage tolerance and optimal dosage and to identify possible adverse side effects and safety risks. Once a compound shows evidence of effectiveness and is found to have an acceptable safety profile in Phase 2 evaluations, pivotal Phase 3 trials are undertaken to more fully evaluate clinical outcomes and to establish the overall risk/benefit profile of the drug, and to provide, if appropriate, an adequate basis for product labeling. During all clinical trials, physicians will monitor patients to determine effectiveness of the drug candidate and to observe and report any reactions or safety risks that may result from use of the drug candidate. The FDA, the IRB, or the sponsor may suspend a clinical trial at any time on various grounds, including a finding that the subjects are being exposed to an unacceptable health risk.





9


The data from the clinical trials, together with preclinical data and other supporting information that establishes a drug candidate’s safety, are submitted to the FDA in the form of a new drug application, or NDA, or NDA supplement (for approval of a new indication if the product candidate is already approved for another indication). Under applicable laws and FDA regulations, each NDA submitted for FDA approval is usually given an internal administrative review within 45 to 60 days following submission of the NDA. If deemed complete, the FDA will “file” the NDA, thereby triggering substantive review of the application. The FDA can refuse to file any NDA that it deems incomplete or not properly reviewable. The FDA has established internal substantive review goals of six months for priority NDA’s (for drugs addressing serious or life threatening conditions for which there is an unmet medical need) and ten months for regular NDA’s. The FDA, however, is not legally required to complete its review within these periods, and these performance goals may change over time. Moreover, the outcome of the review, even if generally favorable, is not typically an actual approval, but an “action letter” that describes additional work that must be done before the NDA can be approved. The FDA’s review of a NDA may involve review and recommendations by an independent FDA advisory committee. The FDA may deny approval of an NDA or an NDA supplement if the applicable regulatory criteria are not satisfied, or it may require additional clinical data and/or an additional pivotal Phase 3 clinical trial. Even if such data are submitted, the FDA may ultimately decide that the NDA or NDA supplement does not satisfy the criteria for approval.





Data Review and Approval





Substantial financial resources are necessary to fund the research, clinical trials, and related activities necessary to satisfy FDA requirements or similar requirements of state, local, and foreign regulatory agencies. It normally takes many years to satisfy these various regulatory requirements, assuming they are satisfied. Information generated in this process is susceptible to varying interpretations that could delay, limit, or prevent regulatory approval at any stage of the process. Accordingly, the actual time and expense required to bring a product to market may vary substantially. We cannot assure you that we will submit applications for required authorizations to manufacture and/or market potential products or that any such application will be reviewed and approved by the appropriate regulatory authorities in a timely manner, if at all. Data obtained from clinical activities is not always conclusive and may be susceptible to varying interpretations, which could delay, limit, or prevent regulatory approval. Success in early stage clinical trials does not ensure success in later stage clinical trials. Even if a product candidate receives regulatory approval, the approval may be significantly limited to specific disease states, patient populations, and dosages, or have conditions placed on them that restrict the commercial applications, advertising, promotion, or distribution of these products.





Once issued, the FDA may withdraw product approval if ongoing regulatory standards are not met or if safety problems occur after the product reaches the market. In addition, the FDA may require testing and surveillance programs to monitor the effect of approved products which have been commercialized, and the FDA has the power to prevent or limit further marketing of a product based on the results of these post-marketing programs. The FDA may also request additional clinical trials after a product is approved. These so-called Phase 4 studies may be made a condition to be satisfied after a drug receives approval. The results of Phase 4 studies can confirm the effectiveness of a product candidate and can provide important safety information via the FDA’s voluntary adverse drug reaction reporting system. Any products manufactured or distributed by us pursuant to FDA approvals would be subject to continuing regulation by the FDA, including record-keeping requirements and reporting of adverse experiences with the drug. Drug manufacturers and their


10


subcontractors are required to register their establishments with the FDA and certain state agencies, and are subject to periodic unannounced inspections by the FDA and certain state agencies for compliance with good manufacturing practices, which impose certain procedural and documentation requirements upon us and our third-party manufacturers. We cannot be certain that we or our present or future suppliers will be able to comply with the good manufacturing practices regulations and other FDA regulatory requirements. If our present or future suppliers are not able to comply with these requirements, the FDA may halt our clinical trials, require us to recall a drug from distribution, or withdraw approval of the NDA for that drug. Furthermore, even after regulatory approval is obtained, later discovery of previously unknown problems with a product may result in restrictions on the product or even complete withdrawal of the product from the market.





The FDA closely regulates the marketing and promotion of drugs. Approval may be subject to post-marketing surveillance and other record keeping and reporting obligations, and involve ongoing requirements. Product approvals may be withdrawn if compliance with regulatory standards is not maintained or if problems occur following initial marketing. A company can make only those claims relating to safety and efficacy that are approved by the FDA. Failure to comply with these requirements can result in adverse publicity, warning letters, corrective advertising, and potential civil and criminal penalties. Physicians may prescribe legally available drugs for uses that are not described in the product’s labeling and that differ from those tested by us and approved by the FDA. Such off-label uses are common across medical specialties. Physicians may believe that such off-label uses are the best treatment for many patients in varied circumstances. The FDA does not regulate the behavior of physicians in their choice of treatments. The FDA does, however, restrict manufacturers’ communications on the subject of off-label use.





505(b)(2)





The traditional approval process for New Drugs is set out in Section 505(b)(1) of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act. An alternative path to FDA approval is for new or improved formulations of previously approved products. This alternative path, established by section 505(b)(2) of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act, permits the applicant to rely on certain preclinical or clinical studies conducted for an approved product as some of the information required for approval and for which the applicant has not obtained a right of reference. The FDA may also require companies to perform additional studies to support the change from the approved product. The FDA may then approve the new product candidate for all or some of the indications for which the referenced product was approved, as well as for any new indications sought by the Section 505(b)(2) applicant.





To the extent that the Section 505(b)(2) applicant is relying on studies conducted for an already approved product, the applicant is required to certify to the FDA concerning any patents listed for the approved product in the FDA’s Orange Book publication. Specifically, the applicant must certify that: (i) the required patent information has not been filed; (ii) the listed patent has expired; (iii) the listed patent has not expired, but will expire on a particular date and approval is sought after patent expiration; or (iv) the listed patent is valid or will not be infringed by the new product. If the applicant does not challenge the listed patents, the Section 505(b)(2) application will not be approved until all the listed patents claiming the referenced product have expired. The Section 505(b)(2) application also will not be approved until any non-patent exclusivity, such as exclusivity for obtaining approval of a new chemical entity, listed in the Orange Book for the referenced product has expired.





11


Orphan Drug Designation





Under the Orphan Drug Act, the FDA may grant orphan drug designation to drugs intended to treat a rare disease or condition, which is generally a disease or condition that affects fewer than 200,000 individuals in the United States. Orphan drug designation must be requested before submitting a NDA. After the FDA grants orphan drug designation, the identity of the therapeutic agent and its potential orphan use are disclosed publicly by the FDA. Orphan drug designation does not convey any advantage in or shorten the duration of the regulatory review and approval process. If a product that has orphan drug designation subsequently receives FDA approval for the disease for which it has such designation, the product is entitled to orphan product exclusivity, which means that the FDA may not approve any other applications to market the same drug for the same disease, except in very limited circumstances, for seven years. These, very limited, circumstances are (i) an inability to supply the drug in sufficient quantities or (ii) a situation in which a new formulation of the drug has shown superior safety or efficacy. This exclusivity, however, also could block the approval of our product for seven years if a competitor obtains earlier approval of the same drug for the same indication.





Foreign Regulation





In addition to regulations in the United States, a variety of foreign regulations govern clinical trials and commercial sales and distribution of products in foreign countries. Whether or not the Company obtains FDA approval for a product, the Company must obtain approval of a product by the comparable regulatory authorities of foreign countries before the Company can commence clinical trials or market the product in those countries. The approval process varies from country to country, and the time may be longer or shorter than that required for FDA approval. The requirements governing the conduct of clinical trials, product licensing, pricing and reimbursement vary greatly from country to country.





Under European Union regulatory systems, the Company may submit marketing authorization applications either under a centralized or decentralized procedure. The centralized procedure, which is available for medicines produced by biotechnology or which are highly innovative, provides for the grant of a single marketing authorization that is valid for all EU member states. This authorization is a marketing authorization application (“MAA”). The decentralized procedure provides for mutual recognition of national approval decisions. Under this procedure, the holder of a national marketing authorization may submit an application to the remaining member states. Within 90 days of receiving the applications and assessment report, each member state must decide whether to recognize approval. This procedure is referred to as the mutual recognition procedure (“MRP”).





The policies of the FDA and foreign regulatory authorities may change and additional government regulations may be enacted which could prevent or delay regulatory approval of our investigational drugs or approval of new diseases for our existing products and could also increase the cost of regulatory compliance. It is not possible to predict the likelihood, nature or extent of adverse governmental regulation that might arise from future legislative or administrative action, either in the United States or abroad.

In 2008, the Company sold preferred stock with attached warrants. As of December 31, 2009, there were 12,447,999 of these warrants outstanding. These warrants contain an anti-dilution ratchet provision.

In December 2010, the Company agreed to buy the 12,000,000 warrants from the Director for $200,000. A verbal agreement was reached for the purchase price, with interest at 0.43% per annum in December 2010, which was formally executed as a promissory note in January 2011.The warrants were retired due to the purchase by the Company. As of December 31, 2010, 447,999 of the warrants with the anti-dilution provision remained outstanding.

Stock Option and Warrant Exercise Incentive:





In November 2009, the Board approved an incentive to encourage option and warrant holders (“Holders”) to exercise their options or warrants. Holders were allowed, for a limited time, to exercise up to one-third of the options or warrants they held, at an exercise price of $0.10 per share and, for each option or warrant so exercised, two additional options or warrants were converted to cashless options or warrants, and deemed exercised immediately on a cashless basis with an exercise price of $0.10. The Board extended the exercise incentive until January 22, 2010.


16





The Company determined that this was a modification of equity instruments, and accounted for the inducement under ASC Topic 718. For option and warrant holders who accepted the inducement and exercised their instruments under the terms noted above, an incremental fair value of the inducement was determined using the Black-Scholes option pricing model, with the following assumptions: dividend yield 0.0%, expected volatility of 147-216%, risk free interest rate 0.14 - 2.37%, and expected life of 0.13-5.36 years.  The Company recognized $84,148 of expense in 2009 and $4,457 of expense related to the inducement in 2010.





The activity resulting from the exercise of warrants and options under this incentive is as follows:

ITEM 7.                      MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OR PLAN OF OPERATION.





17


The following discussion should be read in conjunction with our financial statements and the notes thereto which appear elsewhere in this report.  The results shown herein are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected in any future periods.  This discussion contains forward-looking statements based on current expectations, which involve uncertainties.  Actual results and the timing of events could differ materially from the forward-looking statements as a result of a number of factors.  Readers should also carefully review factors set forth in other reports or documents that we file from time to time with the Securities and Exchange Commission.





Overview





The Company continues to engage in research and development activities focused on developing biologics for the treatment of human and animal diseases.  The Company has not commenced any significant product commercialization and, until such time, we will not generate significant product revenues.  However, a license deal with a large pharmaceutical partner may provide sufficient capital to fund FDA approval and marketing launch of low-dose oral interferon technology.  Our accumulated deficit has decreased, from $35,318,939 at December 31, 2009 to $34,816,827 at December 31, 2010. Operating losses are expected to continue for the foreseeable future and until such time as the Company is able obtain a large pharmaceutical partner or attain sales levels sufficient to support operations.





In 2011 we will continue research and development activities, as well as the activities necessary to develop commercial partnerships and licenses. Expenditure of financial resources in 2011 will fall principally into five broad categories, as follows: Research and Development; Personnel; Consulting and Professional (except legal and accounting); Legal and Accounting; and Public Relations, Investor Relations and Shareholder Relations.





Liquidity and Capital Resources





At December 31, 2010, we had available cash of $4,332, and had a working capital deficit of $3,489,427. This includes $257,173 of accrued salaries to officers; $2,751,294 from loans ($2,000,000) and accrued interest ($751,294 from HBL); a $200,000 loan from a Director, and $59,784 of derivative liabilities to account for warrants issued to an institutional investor.  Negative cash flow from operating activities plus equipment purchases, software purchases and patent filings (burn rate) is approximately $50,000 per month.  Continued losses and lack of liquidity indicate that we may not be able to continue as a going concern for a reasonable period of time. The ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon several factors including, but not limited to, the ability to generate sufficient cash flow to meet obligations on a timely basis, obtain additional financing and continue to obtain supplies and services from vendors.





We will need to raise additional funds in order to fully execute our 2011 Plan.  We are presently negotiating with human and animal health commercial development partners in various regions of the world.  We believe that one or more of these agreements will be executed during 2011. These agreements could generally include provisions for the commercial partner to pay us a technology access fee, could include payments for a portion of the clinical trial expenses, could include payment obligations to us upon the accomplishment of certain defined tasks and/or could provide for payments relating to the future sales of commercial product. These agreements could be an important source of funds. However, there can be no assurance that we will be successful in obtaining additional funding from human health commercial development partners, institutional or private


18


investors.  If we are not successful in raising additional funds, we will need to significantly curtail clinical trial expenditures and to further reduce staff and administrative expenses and may be forced to cease operations.





Total outstanding current liabilities were approximately $1.36 million (27%) lower at the end of 2010 with approximately $3.63 million at December 31, 2010, as compared to approximately $4.99 million at December 31, 2009.  Derivative liabilities associated with warrants issued in 2008 decreased approximately $1.87 million December 31, 2009 to December 31, 2010.  Liabilities, excluding derivative liabilities, increased approximately $511,000, which included a $200,000 loan from a director and an increase of approximately $100,000 in accrued salaries to officers.





Critical Accounting Policies





We believe the following critical accounting policies, among others, affect our more significant judgments and estimates used in the preparation of our financial statements:





Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation





Stock based compensation expense is recorded in accordance with Financial Account Standards Board Accounting Standards Codification (“FASB ASC”) Topic 718, Share-Based Payment, for stock and stock options awarded in return for services rendered. The expense is measured at the grant-date fair value of the award and recognized as compensation expense on a straight-line basis over the service period, which is the vesting period. The Company estimates forfeitures that it expects will occur and records expense based upon the number of awards expected to vest.





Accounting for Warrants with Embedded Derivative Feature





In accordance with Financial Account Standards Board Accounting Standards Codification (“FASB ASC”) Topic 815, the Company reclassified warrants with embedded derivative feature (full-ratchet anti-dilution provision) to liabilities at fair value on January 1, 2009 and reported the change in fair value of the warrants for 2010 and 2009 as a component of other income.





Patents and Patent Expenditures





AMAR holds patent license agreements and holds patents that are owned by the Company. All patent license agreements remain in effect over the life of the underlying patents. Accordingly, the patent license fee is being amortized over 15-17 years using the straight-line method. Patent fees and legal fees associated with the issuance of new owned patents are capitalized and amortized over 15-17 years.





Long-lived Assets





Impairment losses are recorded on long-lived assets used in operations when indicators of impairment are present and the undiscounted cash flows estimated to be generated by those assets are less than the assets' carrying amount. No impairment losses have been recorded since inception.





19


Revenue Recognition




Dietary supplement and interferon sales





Revenues for the dietary supplement sales are recognized when an arrangement exists, the price is fixed and it has been determined that collectability is reasonably assured.  This generally occurs at the point when the goods are shipped to the customer.





Sublicense fee revenue





Sublicense revenue is calculated based on fees relating to a license.  Amarillo recognizes revenue on these sublicense fees in the month the revenue is generated by the licensee.





Royalty revenue





Royalty revenue is calculated based on royalty fees as a percent of net sales relating to a license. Amarillo recognizes revenue on these royalty payments in the year the revenue is generated by the licensee. HBL reported no sales of Bimron to Bio Vet for 2010.  Royalty revenue of $1,479 was reported in the year ended December 31, 2009 for HBL sales of Bimron to BioVet.





Comparison of results for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2010, to the fiscal year ended December 31, 2009.





Revenues.  During the fiscal year ended December 31, 2010, $5,150 from product sales, sublicense fees and royalties was generated compared to $52,254 for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2009, a decrease of $47,104 or approximately 90%.  The difference was mostly because no sublicense fees or royalties were earned in 2010 compared to $50,274 for 2009.





Selling, General and Administrative Expenses.  We were successful in cutting costs in 2010.  Selling, General and Administrative expenses were reduced from $1,202,702 for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2009 to $638,164 for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2010, a cost savings of $564,538 or approximately 47%. This was mostly because employee and director expenses were lower by $445,982 (58%) and option-warrant inducement expense was lower by $79,691 (95%) in 2010.





Research and Development Expenses.Research and Development expenses of $433,357 were incurred for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2010, compared to $464,789 for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2009, a decrease of $31,432 or approximately 7%. The decrease was mostly due to $18,114 (53%) lower clinical trial costs for oral warts in HIV+ patients and $25,157 (7%) lower R&D personnel costs in 2010.





Net Income (Loss).  Net income for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2010 was $506,312 compared to a net loss of $2,971,207 for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2009, an increase of $3,477,519 or approximately 117%.  The increase in net income was mostly a $2,908,733 increase in derivative gains from $(1,240,397) in 2009 to $1,668,336 in 2010.  This resulted from a Director assigning 12 million warrants to the Company for $200,000 and eliminating $1,868,336 of derivative liabilities associated with the warrants.  Net income applicable to common shareholders for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2010 was $502,112 compared to a net loss of $2,971,207 for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2009, a change of $3,473,319 (117%).  Net income applicable to common shareholders in 2010 included $4,200 of stock dividends for preferred stock shareholders.

ITEM 7A.                      QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK.





You should carefully consider the risks described below before making an investment in Amarillo Biosciences, Inc.  All of these risks may impair our business operations.  If any of the following risks actually  occurs  our business, financial condition or  results  of  operations  could  be  materially adversely affected.  In such case, the trading price of our common stock could decline, and you may lose all or part of your investment.





Risks Relating to our Business





We may not be able to adequately protect and maintain our intellectual property.





Our success will depend in part on our ability to protect and maintain our patents, intellectual property rights and licensing arrangements for our products and technology.  We currently own four patents and license nine patents.  No assurance can be given that such licenses or rights used by us will not be challenged, infringed or circumvented or that the rights granted thereunder will provide competitive advantages to us. Furthermore, there can be no assurance that we will be able to remain in compliance with our existing or future licensing arrangements. Consequently, there may be a risk that licensing arrangements are withdrawn with no penalties to the licensee or compensation to us.





We rely on third parties for the supply, manufacture and distribution of our products.





Third parties manufacture and distribute all of our products. We do not currently have manufacturing facilities or personnel to independently manufacture our products. Currently, Marlyn Nutraceutical manufactures our nutraceutical products. Our licensed distributors, in the United States and internationally distribute the nutraceutical products. Except for any contractual rights and remedies that we may have with our manufacturer and our distributor, we have no control over the availability of our products, their quality or cost or the actual distribution of our products. If for any reason we are unable to obtain or retain third-party manufacturers and distributors on commercially acceptable terms, we may not be able to produce and distribute our products as planned. If we encounter delays or difficulties with our contract manufacturer in producing or packaging our products or with our distributor in distributing our products, the production, distribution, marketing and subsequent sales of these products would be adversely affected, and we may have to seek alternative sources of supply or distribution or abandon or sell product lines on unsatisfactory terms. We may not be able to enter into alternative supply, production or distribution arrangements on commercially acceptable terms, if at all. There can be no assurance that the manufacturer that we have engaged will be able to provide sufficient quantities of these products or that the products supplied will meet with our specifications or that our distributor will be able to distribute our products in accordance with our requirements.





We are dependent on funding from private placements of stock.





Sales revenue, sublicense fees and royalty income are low compared to expenses.  Our primary focus is to achieve FDA approval of oral interferon for one or more disease indications.  We do not expect significant sales or royalty revenue in the near term as Phase 2 and Phase 3 clinical studies must be completed before a NDA (New Drug Application) may be submitted to the FDA.  We operate at a net loss and current liabilities exceed current assets by $3,489,427 on December 31, 2010.  Most of


21


this ($3,268,251)   includes the amount owed to HBL for $2 million in two notes plus $751,294 of accrued interest; $200,000 loan owed to a Director, $59,784 recognized as derivative liabilities to account for warrants with embedded features and $257,173 of accrued salaries owed to officers. HBL was paid $200,000 of accrued interest in January of 2008 and extended the notes and remaining accrued interest until June 3, 2008 and August 28, 2008.  On December 10, 2008, HBL proposed to extend the notes and accrued interest until December 3, 2009 and February 28, 2010 if payment of $200,000 of accrued interest was received by February 28, 2008.  We have requested more time to pay the accrued interest payments to extend the notes.  Although the notes are in default, HBL hasnot demanded payment.  The Company has no commitment or assurance that HBL will not demand payment and/or declare the notes in default.  We do not have sufficient liquidity to pay off the notes or to fund operating losses unless funding is obtained from pharmaceutical partners or private placements of stock. HBL is part of the Hayashibara Group of companies, which announced on February 2, 2011 on its website in Japan that it had filed a petition for corporate reorganization with the Tokyo District Court. We have no indication that this reorganization will have any effect on our current relationship with HBL or that they would call this debt in at this time. There can be no assurance that private placement or pharmaceutical company funding will always be available as market conditions may change.





We are dependant on certain key existing and future personnel.





Our success will depend, to a large degree, upon the efforts and abilities of our officers and key management employees such as Joseph M. Cummins, our President and Chief Executive Officer, Bernard Cohen, our Chief Financial Officer, and Martin J. Cummins, our Vice President of Clinical and Regulatory Affairs. The loss of the services of one or more of our key employees could have a material adverse effect on our operations. We do currently have employment agreements with our executive officers. We do not currently maintain key man life insurance on any of our key employees. In addition, as our business plan is implemented, we will need to recruit and retain additional management and key employees in virtually all phases of our operations. We cannot assure that we will be able to successfully attract and retain key personnel.





If we do not successfully develop, acquire or license new drugs our business may not grow.





We must invest substantial time, resources and capital in identifying and developing new drugs, dosage and delivery systems, either on our own or by acquiring and licensing such products from third parties. Our growth depends, in part, on our success in such process.  If we are unable to either develop new products on our own or acquire licenses for new products from third parties, our ability to grow revenues and market share may be adversely affected. In addition, we may not be able to recover our investment in the development of new drugs, given that projects may be interrupted, unsuccessful, not as profitable as initially contemplated or we may not be able to obtain necessary financing for such development if we are unable to fund such development from our future revenues. Similarly, there is no assurance that we can successfully secure such rights from third parties on an economically feasible basis.





Our competitors are much larger and more experienced than we are and, even if we complete the development of our drugs, we may not be able to successfully compete with them.





The pharmaceutical industry is highly competitive.  Our biologics and low-dose oral interferon alpha applications compete with high dose injectable interferon manufactured by Roche, InterMune,


22


Serano, Biogen, Berlex and Hemispherx.  High dose injectable interferon has been widely accepted by the medical community for many years.  Companies who manufacture injectable interferon alpha applications are more established than we are and have far greater financial, technical, research and development, sales and marketing, administrative and other resources than we do.  Even if we successfully complete the development of our tests, we may not be able to compete effectively with these much larger companies and their more established products.





We may be subject to product liability claims in the future.





We face an inherent business risk of exposure to product liability claims in the event that the use of our technologies or products is alleged to have resulted in adverse side effects.  Side effects or marketing or manufacturing problems pertaining to any of our products could result in product liability claims or adverse publicity.  These risks will exist for those products in clinical development and with respect to those products that receive regulatory approval for commercial sale.  Even though we have not historically experienced any problems associated with claims by users of our products, we do currently maintain product liability insurance.





We have been the subject of a going concern opinion by our independent auditors who have expressed substantial doubt as to our ability to continue as a going concern.





Our Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm has added an explanatory paragraph to their audit opinions issued in connection with our financial statements which states that our recurring losses from operations and the need to raise additional financing in order to execute our business plan raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.  We experienced a net loss of $2,971,207 for the year ended December 31, 2009 and net income of $506,312 for the year ended December 31, 2010.  The net loss in 2009 included a $1,240,397 change in fair value of derivative instruments in 2009.  The net income in 2010 included $1,668,336 of derivative gains resulting from a Director assigning 12 million warrants to the Company for $200,000 to eliminate the derivative liability associated with the anti-dilution ratchet feature of the warrants.   Net loss applicable to common shareholders was $2,971,207 in 2009.  Net income applicable to common shareholders was $502,112 in 2010.  In addition, as of December 31, 2010 and 2009 we had an accumulated deficit of $34,816,827 and $35,318,939, respectively. These factors, among others, raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. Our financial statements do not include any adjustment that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty. Assurances cannot be given that adequate financing can be obtained to meet our capital needs. If we are unable to generate profits and unable to continue to obtain financing to meet our working capital requirements, we may have to curtail our business sharply or cease operations altogether. Our continuation as a going concern is dependent upon our ability to generate sufficient cash flow to meet our obligations on a timely basis to retain our current financing, to obtain additional financing, and, ultimately, to attain profitability. Should any of these events not occur, we will be adversely affected and we may have to cease operations.





Risks Relating to Ownership of Common Stock.





There may not be sufficient liquidity in the market for our securities in order for investors to sell their securities.





23


There is currently only a limited public market for our common stock, which is listed on the Bulletin Board, and there can be no assurance that a trading market will develop further or be maintained in the future.  There were 8,457,359 warrants and 4,686,737 options outstanding and exercisable as of December 31, 2010.  If the warrants or options are exercised and the stock sold, the volume of stock sales may adversely impact the market price.





ITEM 8.                      FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AND SUPPLEMENTARY DATA.





The financial statements of the Company are set forth beginning on page F-1 immediately following the signature page of this report.





ITEM 9.                      CHANGES IN AND DISAGREEMENTS WITH ACCOUNTANTS ON ACCOUNTING AND FINANCIAL DISCLOSURE.





None.





ITEM 9A.                      CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES.





As of December 31, 2010, the disclosure controls and procedures in place have been evaluated and are sufficient to ensure the accurate and full disclosure of financial matters.





The management of the Company is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal controls over the financial reporting of the Company.  The Company uses the following framework to evaluate the effectiveness of the internal controls over financial reporting:





We maintain a system of disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to provide reasonable assurance that information, which is required to be timely disclosed, is accumulated and communicated to management in a timely fashion.





In the ordinary course of business, we review our system of internal control over financial reporting and make changes to our systems and processes to improve controls and increase efficiency, while ensuring that we maintain an effective internal control environment. Changes may include such activities as implementing new, more efficient systems and automating manual processes.





An evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures was performed as of the end of the period covered by this report. This evaluation was performed under the supervision and with the participation of management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer. Based upon that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures are effective to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports that it files or submits under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is accumulated and communicated to management, including our Chief Executive Officer, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure and are effective to provide reasonable assurance that such information is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified by the SECs  rules and forms.





Management assessed the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2010.  In making this assessment, management used the criteria set forth by the


24


Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission in Internal Control-Integrated Framework.  Based on such assessment and those criteria, management believes that the Company maintained effective internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2010.  The Company’s accounting firm has not issued an attestation report on the management’s assessment of the Company’s internal controls.  There were no changes made to the internal controls in 2010.  See Exhibit 33.1 for managements report on internal control over financial reporting.

(2)
The number of securities underlying the option grants to Dr. Chen on July 29, 2010 was 100,000 ($6,451 fair value).  Dr. Chen was granted 12,500,000 options with 30 day term and $0.04 exercise price on November 4, 2010 in order to purchase stock under an existing Plan.  The fair value of 12,500,000 options vesting immediately ($47,879) was estimated on the date of the grant using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model with the following weighted average assumptions: dividend yield of 0.0%, expected volatility of 187.56% and risk-free interest rate of 0.130%.  200,000 options vest if the Company receives $50,000 of royalty payments from South American sales by Cyto Biotech within three years. The License and Supply Agreement with Cyto Biotech was terminated on February 7, 2011. This option opportunity therefore dissolved on February 7, 2011. The aggregate number of option awards to Dr. Chen outstanding at the end of 2010 was 764,125 of which 564,125 are vested.


(3)
The number of securities underlying the option grants to Mr. D’Alonzo was 100,000 ($6,451 fair value).  The aggregate number of option awards to Mr. D’Alonzo outstanding at the end of 2010 was 206,800.

(5)
The number of securities underlying the option grants to Dr. Page was 100,000 ($6,451 fair value).  The aggregate number of option awards to Dr. Page outstanding at the end of 2010 was 264,125.





No employment or Director agreements were executed in 2010.





ITEM 12.                      SECURITY OWNERSHIP OF CERTAIN BENEFICIAL OWNERS AND MANAGEMENT AND RELATED STOCKHOLDER MATTERS




As of December 31, 2010, there were 61,147,224 shares of the Company’s common stock outstanding. The following table sets forth as of December 31, 2010, the beneficial ownership of each person who owns more than 5% of such outstanding common stock:

ITEM 13.                      CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS.





The Company has relied significantly on HBL, a large shareholder of the Company, for a substantial portion of its capital requirements. Pursuant to the Development Agreement previously described, HBL advanced $9,000,000 for funding of research. In addition, HBL has purchased substantial amounts of the Company’s common stock from time to time, to the point where it now owns 5.10% of the issued and outstanding shares of common stock of the Company.





HBL and the Company are parties to various license and manufacturing and supply agreements pursuant to which the Company licenses certain technology to or from HBL. HBL supplies


32


formulations of its interferon alpha and other products to the Company at contractual prices. The Company pays HBL a 12% royalty on the first $100 million of interferon alpha net sales and a 10% royalty on additional net sales.





Additionally, the Company is obligated to pay HBL a percentage of sublicense fee income the Company receives.  We recorded $24,360 of sublicense fees to HBL in 2009 and owed $78,360 of accrued sublicense fees to HBL on December 31, 2010.





HBL is obligated to pay the Company an 8% royalty on sales of oral interferon in Japan.  The Company recorded $0 in 2010 and $1,479 of royalties in 2009 from HBL animal health sales of oral interferon.





During 2010, the Company engaged the law firm of Underwood, Wilson, Berry, Stein and Johnson P.C. of which Mr. Morris is a shareholder.  Mr. Morris is also the Secretary of the Company. During the twelve months ended December 31, 2010, the Company incurred $36,126 of legal fees from this law firm.





All future transactions and loans between the Company and its officers, directors and 5% shareholders will be on terms no less favorable to the Company than could be obtained from independent third parties. There can be no assurance, however, that future transactions or arrangements between the Company and its affiliates will be advantageous, that conflicts of interest will not arise with respect thereto or that if conflicts do arise, that they will be resolved in favor of the Company.





ITEM 14.                      PRINCIPAL ACCOUNTING FEES AND SERVICES.





The following summarizes the fees incurred by the Company during 2010 and 2009 for accountant and related services.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm





To the Board of Directors of


Amarillo Biosciences, Inc.


Amarillo, TX





We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of Amarillo Biosciences, Inc. (the “Company”) as of December 31, 2010 and 2009, and the related statements of operations, stockholders' deficit, and cash flows for each of the years then ended. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.





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





In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Amarillo Biosciences, Inc. as of December 31, 2010 and 2009, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the years then ended in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.





As discussed in Note 1 to the financial statements, the Company's absence of significant revenues, recurring losses from operations, and its need for additional financing in order to fund its projected loss in 2011 raise substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. The 2010 financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

Amarillo Biosciences, Inc.


Notes to Financial Statements


December 31, 2010 and 2009








1. Organization and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies





Organization and Business





Amarillo Biosciences, Inc. (the "Company” or “AMAR” or “Amarillo”), a Texas corporation formed in 1984, is engaged in developing biologics for the treatment of human and animal diseases. The Company is continuing its clinical studies as part of the process of obtaining regulatory approval from the United States Food and Drug Administration ("FDA"), so that commercial marketing can begin in the United States. The Company has developed a dietary supplement and an interferon alpha lozenge, but has not commenced any significant product commercialization activities.





Going Concern





These financial statements have been prepared in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles, on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities and commitments in the normal course of business. The Company has not yet achieved operating income, and its operations are funded primarily from debt and equity financings. Losses are anticipated in the ongoing development of its business and there can be no assurance that the Company will be able to achieve or maintain profitability.





The continuing operations of the Company and the recoverability of the carrying value of assets is dependent upon the ability of the Company to obtain necessary financing to fund its working capital requirements, and upon future profitable operations. The accompanying financial statements do not include any adjustments relative to the recoverability and classification of asset carrying amounts or the amount and classification of liabilities that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.





There can be no assurance that capital will be available as necessary to meet the Company's working capital requirements or, if the capital is available, that it will be on terms acceptable to the Company. The issuances of additional equity securities by the Company may result in dilution in the equity interests of its current stockholders. Obtaining commercial loans, assuming those loans would be available, will increase the Company's liabilities and future cash commitments. If the Company is unable to obtain financing in the amounts and on terms deemed acceptable, the business and future success may be adversely affected and the Company may cease operations. These factors raise substantial doubt regarding our ability to continue as a going concern.


F-6


Fair Value of Financial Instruments





Under the Financial Account Standards Board Accounting Standards Codification (“FASB ASC”), we are permitted to elect to measure financial instruments and certain other items at fair value, with the change in fair value recorded in earnings. We elected not to measure any eligible items using the fair value option. Consistent with Fair Value Measurement Topic of the FASB ASC, we implemented guidelines relating to the disclosure of our methodology for periodic measurement of our assets and liabilities recorded at fair market value.





Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. A three-tier fair value hierarchy prioritizes the inputs used in measuring fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (level 1 measurements) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (level 3 measurements). These tiers include:





·
Level 1, defined as observable inputs such as quoted prices for identical instruments in active markets;


·
Level 2, defined as inputs other than quoted prices in active markets that are either directly or indirectly observable such as quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets or quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active; and


·
Level 3, defined as unobservable inputs in which little or no market data exists, therefore requiring an entity to develop its own assumptions, such as valuations derived from valuation techniques in which one more significant inputs or significant value drivers are unobservable.





Our Level 1 assets and liabilities primarily include our cash and cash equivalents. Valuations are obtained from readily available pricing sources for market transactions involving identical assets or liabilities. The carrying amounts of accounts receivable, accounts payable, accrued liabilities, and notes payable approximate fair value due to the immediate or short-term maturities of these financial instruments. Our Level 2 liabilities consist of derivative liabilities. These are valued using observable inputs from readily available pricing sources for similar liabilities in active markets.





Stock-Based Compensation





Stock-based compensation expense is recorded in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 718, Compensation – Stock Compensation, for stock and stock options awarded in return for services rendered. The expense is measured at the grant-date fair value of the award and recognized as compensation expense on a straight-line basis over the service period, which is the vesting period. The Company estimates forfeitures that it expects will occur and records expense based upon the number of awards expected to vest.





The fair value of each option granted in 2009 is estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model with the following weighted average assumptions: dividend yield of 0%, expected volatility of between 146% and 216%, risk-free interest rate between 0.04% and


F-7


2.02%, and expected life between 0.1 and 5 years.  The fair value of each option granted in 2010 is estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model with the following weighted average assumptions: dividend yield of 0%, expected volatility of between 159% and 188%, risk-free interest rate between 0.13% and 3.03%, and expected life between 0.08 and 10 years.





Cash and Cash Equivalents





The Company classifies investments as cash equivalents if the original maturity of an investment is three months or less.





Allowance for Doubtful Accounts





The Company establishes an allowance for doubtful accounts to ensure trade and notes receivable are not overstated due to uncollectibility.  The Company’s allowance is based on a variety of factors, including age of the receivable, significant one-time events, historical experience, and other risk considerations. The Company had no material accounts receivable and no allowance at December 31, 2010 and 2009.





Inventory





Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or market. Cost is determined on a first-in, first-out basis. The Company continually assesses the appropriateness of inventory valuations giving consideration to slow-moving, non-saleable, out-of-date or close-dated inventory. As of December 31, 2010 and 2009 the Company had $3,396 and $2,009, respectively, of inventory included in other current assets.





Property and Equipment





Property and equipment are stated on the basis of historical cost less accumulated depreciation.  Depreciation is provided using the straight-line method over the two to seven year estimated useful lives of the assets.





Patents and Patent Expenditures





AMAR holds patent license agreements and holds patents that are owned by the Company. All patent license agreements remain in effect over the life of the underlying patents. Accordingly, the patent license fee is being amortized over the estimated life of the patent using the straight-line method. Patent fees and legal fees associated with the issuance of new owned patents are capitalized and amortized over the estimated life of the patent.  Amortization expense amounted to $16,879 and $16,724 for the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively.





F-8


Long-lived Assets





Impairment losses are recorded on long-lived assets used in operations when indicators of impairment are present and the undiscounted cash flows estimated to be generated by those assets are less than the assets' carrying amount.  No impairment losses have been recorded since inception.





Income Taxes





The asset and liability approach is used to account for income taxes by recognizing deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of temporary differences between the carrying amounts and the tax bases of assets and liabilities. The Company records a valuation allowance to reduce the deferred tax assets to the amount that is more likely than not to be realized.





Revenue Recognition





Dietary supplement and interferon sales





Revenues for the dietary supplement sales are recognized when an arrangement exists, the price is fixed and it has been determined that collectibility is reasonably assured.  This generally occurs at the point when the goods are shipped to the customer.





Sublicense fee revenue





Sublicense revenue is calculated based on fees relating to a license.  Amarillo recognizes revenue on these sublicense fees in the month the revenue is generated by the licensee.





Royalty revenue





Royalty revenue is calculated based on royalty fees as a percent of net sales relating to a license.  Amarillo recognizes revenue on these royalty payments in the year the revenue is generated by the licensee.  Royalty revenue of $1,479 was reported in the year ended December 31, 2009 for HBL sales of Bimron to BioVet.  HBL reported no sales of Bimron to Bio Vet for 2010.





Research and Development





Research and development costs are expensed as incurred.





Use of Estimates





The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America 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 reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.


F-9





The most significant estimates are the assumptions used in the valuation models to determine the fair value of stock-based compensation and the fair value of the derivative liability.





Basic and Diluted Net Income (Loss) Per Share





Net income (loss) per share is based on the number of weighted average shares outstanding. In 2010, 1,500 shares of preferred stock and 1,150,000 stock options had a dilutive effect of 1,500,000 and 347,222 shares, respectively. In 2009, options and warrants outstanding were anti-dilutive.





Concentration of Credit Risk





Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to significant concentration of credit risk consist principally of cash and accounts receivable.





The Company has cash balances in a single financial institution which, from time to time, exceed the federally insured limit of $250,000.  No loss has been incurred related to this concentration of cash.





Other Concentrations





The Company and its sublicensees are reliant on a single, foreign supplier for its products.  The loss of this supplier could adversely affect the Company’s future revenues.  During 2009 the majority of revenue came from sublicense fees from three of its sublicensees.  There were no sublicense fees in 2010.  The loss of revenue from one these revenue sources could adversely affect the Company’s future revenues.  Our supplier, HBL, is part of the Hayashibara Group of companies, which announced on February 2, 2011 on its website in Japan that it had filed a petition for corporate reorganization with the Tokyo District Court.





In a letter to customers dated February 2, 2011, Mr. Hideki Matsushima, who has been appointed by the Tokyo District Court to be the provisional administrator of HBL, made the following statements, “...I would like to inform you that we will endeavor to supply our products to our customers in a stable fashion. We believe that we will be able to ensure a stable supply of our products, since we have been permitted by the Tokyo District Court to pay our debts to our suppliers related to the purchase of raw materials for our products, on the condition that our suppliers will continue to do business with us under the pre-existing payment terms and conditions.”





Based on these statements from Mr. Matsushima, ABI does not expect any disruption in the supply of IFNα or ACM from HBL. The Company has not received any demand for payment of the outstanding loans with HBL through the date of this filing.




F-10


Recent Accounting Pronouncements







In accordance with FASB ASC Topic 815, the Company reclassified warrants with embedded derivative feature (full-ratchet anti-dilution provision) to liabilities at fair value on January 1, 2009 and reported the change in fair value of the warrants for 2010 and 2009 as a component of other income.





Management does not anticipate that any recently issued but not yet effective accounting pronouncements will materially impact the Company’s financial condition.





2. Property, Equipment and Software





Equipment is stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and consists of the following at December 31, 2010 and 2009:

The annual interest rate on unpaid principal from the date of each respective note is 4.5 percent, with accrued interest being payable at maturity.  $1,000,000 was payable on or before June 3, 2008.  The other $1,000,000 was payable on or before August 28, 2008.  Although we are currently in default of the notes, HBL has not demanded payment through the date of this filing.





The Company has a line of credit with Wells Fargo for $20,000, with interest at the prime rate plus 6.75 percent. There was an outstanding balance at December 31, 2010 and 2009 of $1,822 and $498, respectively, which is included in accounts payable and accrued expenses. This line is used from time to time for purchases.  The Company paid $1,577 and $877 of interest under the line of credit in 2010 and 2009, respectively.


F-11

Holders of options and warrants prior to January 8, 2008 plus officers, directors and consultants under stock plans approved by outside board of director members are exempt from the anti-dilution provisions.





The anti-dilution provision was determined by management to be an embedded derivative, and was recognized as a liability in accordance with ASC 815 as of January 1, 2009. The Company measures the fair value of the liability at the end of each reporting period, with changes in value recorded as part of other income or expense.





In 2010, a Director of the Company purchased 12,000,000 of these warrants from the holder, along with their outstanding shares of stock in the Company, for $200,000. In December 2010, the Company agreed to buy the 12,000,000 warrants from the Director for $200,000. A verbal agreement was reached for the purchase price, with interest at 0.43% per annum in December, which was formally executed as a promissory note in January 2011.The warrants were retired due to the purchase by the Company. As of December 31, 2010, 447,999 of the warrants with the anti-dilution provision remaining outstanding.





The fair value of warrants with embedded derivative feature was estimated at December 31, 2010 with the binomial Black-Scholes option-pricing pricing model using the following assumptions: probability of anti-dilution ratchet of 75%; a probable reset share price of $0.045; dividend yield 0.0%; expected volatility of 195%, risk-free interest rate of 0.6% and expected life of approximately 2 years (the remaining term of the warrants). The fair value of the 447,999 outstanding warrants was $59,784.

Due to the purchase described above, 12,000,000 warrants were retired in December 2010. Consequently, the fair value of these warrants was $0. The decrease in the fair value of the liability for these warrants was recorded as part of the change in fair value of the derivative liability.





Net derivative gains for 2010 were $1,668,336. In 2009, the derivative loss was $1,240,397.





Stock Option and Warrant Exercise Incentive:





In November 2009, the Board approved an incentive to encourage option and warrant holders (“Holders”) to exercise their options or warrants. Holders were allowed, for a limited time, to exercise up to one-third of the options or warrants they held, at an exercise price of $0.10 per share and, for each option or warrant so exercised, two additional options or warrants were converted to cashless options or warrants, and deemed exercised immediately on a cashless basis with an exercise price of $0.10. The Board extended the exercise incentive until January 22, 2010.





The Company determined that this was a modification of equity instruments, and accounted for the inducement under ASC Topic 718. For option and warrant holders who accepted the inducement and exercised their instruments under the terms noted above, an incremental fair value of the inducement was determined using the Black-Scholes option pricing model, with the following assumptions: dividend yield 0.0%, expected volatility of 147-216%, risk free interest rate 0.14 - 2.37%, and expected life of 0.13-5.36 years.  The Company recognized $84,148 of expense in 2009 and $4,457 of expense related to the inducement in 2010.





The activity resulting from the exercise of warrants and options under this incentive is as follows:

9.  Income Taxes





Deferred income taxes reflect the net tax effects of temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for income tax reporting purposes. The Company’s deferred tax asset of approximately $8,790,000 and $9,180,000 at December 31, 2010 and 2009 respectively, was subject to a valuation allowance of $8,790,000 and $9,180,000 at December 31, 2010 and 2009 respectively, because of uncertainty regarding the Company’s ability to realize future tax benefits associated with the deferred tax assets. Deferred tax assets were comprised primarily of net operating loss carryovers under the cash method of accounting used by the Company for federal income tax reporting. The valuation allowance decreased by $390,000 in 2010 and increased by $204,000 in 2009, due to the changes in the Company’s net operating loss carryover amounts.





At December 31, 2010, the Company has net operating loss carryforwards of approximately $25,855,000 for federal income tax purposes expiring in 2011 through 2030.  The ability of the Company to utilize these carryforwards may be limited should changes in stockholder ownership occur.




The difference between the reported income tax provision and the benefit normally expected by applying the statutory rate to the loss before income taxes results from the change during 2010 and 2009 of the deferred tax asset valuation allowance. As a result, the reported effective tax rate is 0%.





10. Commitments and Contingencies





Delinquent payroll





During 2009 and 2010, the Company curtailed payment of salaries payable to senior management of the Company. As of December 31, 2010, approximately $257,173 of unpaid salaries due to senior management of the Company is included in accounts payable and accrued expenses.  The significance of the amounts owed to senior management subjects the Company to the risk of resignation by these officers, as well as possible litigation.

HBL and the Company are parties to various license and manufacturing and supply agreements pursuant to which the Company licenses certain technology to or from HBL. HBL supplies formulations of its interferon alpha and other products to the Company at contractual prices. The Company pays HBL a 12% royalty on the first $100 million of interferon alpha net sales and a 10% royalty on additional net sales.





Additionally, the Company is obligated to pay HBL a percentage of sublicense fee income the Company receives.  We recorded $24,360 of sublicense fees to HBL in 2009 and owed $78,360 of accrued sublicense fees to HBL on December 31, 2010 and 2009.
