CAPRIUS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)

NOTE 1 – THE COMPANY

Caprius, Inc. and subsidiaries (collectively the “Company”, “we”, “us” and “our”) is engaged in the infectious medical waste disposal business. In December 2002, the Company acquired a majority interest in M.C.M. Environmental Technologies, Inc. (“MCM”) which developed, markets and sells the SteriMed and SteriMed Junior compact systems that simultaneously shred and disinfect Regulated Medical Waste.  The SteriMed Systems are sold in both the domestic and international markets.

NOTE 2 – BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND MANAGEMENT PLANS

The condensed consolidated balance sheet of the Company as of June 30, 2008, the condensed consolidated statements of operations for the three month periods ended June 30, 2008 and 2007, and for the nine month periods ended June 30, 2008 and 2007,  the condensed consolidated statement of stockholders’ equity for the nine month period ended June 30, 2008 and the condensed consolidated statements of cash flows for the nine months ended June 30, 2008 and 2007, have been prepared by the Company without audit.  In the opinion of management, the information contained herein reflects all adjustments necessary to make the presentation of the Company’s condensed financial position, results of operations and cash flows not misleading.  All such adjustments are of a normal recurring nature.

The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements do not contain all of the information and disclosures required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and related notes included in the Company’s annual report on Form 10-KSB for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2007, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on December 21, 2007.

The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and satisfaction of liabilities and commitments in the normal course of business. The Company has incurred substantial recurring losses. In addition, the Company is a defendant in an action seeking damages in excess of $400,000.  Although management believes the Company has a meritorious defense against such a lawsuit, an unfavorable outcome of such action would have a materially adverse impact on our business.  During the nine months ended June 30, 2008, the Company used cash flows from operating activities of approximately $3,550,000.  In order to fund the future cash requirements of the Company, the Company continues to pursue efforts to identify additional funds through various funding options, including bank facilities and equity offerings.  There can be no assurance that such funding initiatives will be successful and any equity placement could result in substantial dilution to current stockholders. The above factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.

NOTE 3 – SUMMARY OF CERTAIN SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Principles of Consolidation

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Caprius, Inc. and its wholly and majority owned subsidiaries. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

Revenue Recognition

Revenues from the MCM medical waste business are recognized at the time when the SteriMed units are shipped to the customer. Occasionally, the Company may sell its product directly to equipment leasing companies.  The Company is not a lessor in these types of transactions since the leasing company has no right
 
8

 
to return the equipment after the lease with a third party has ended, nor does the Company have any obligations to repurchase the equipment at the end of the lease. The leasing company is the end user as title and risk of ownership passes as products are shipped.  The Company is not a party to any leasing arrangements between the leasing company and its ultimate customer. Revenues for consulting and royalty fees are recognized as earned.  The Company recognizes revenue for extended warranty contracts over the period that the extended warranty covers. The length of these extended warranty contracts are anywhere from one to four years.

Cash Equivalents

The Company considers all highly liquid debt instruments purchased with a maturity of three months or less to be a cash equivalent.  As of June 30, 2008, the Company has no instruments that would be classified as a cash equivalent.

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.

Loss Per Share

The Company follows Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 128, “Earnings Per Share”, which provides for the calculation of “basic” and “diluted” earnings (loss) per share.  Basic loss per share is computed by dividing loss available to common stockholders by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted loss per share reflects the potential dilution that could occur through the effect of common shares issuable upon the exercise of stock options and warrants and convertible securities. As of June 30, 2008 and 2007, potential issuable common shares amounted to 29,504,260 and 18,023,864 respectively, and have not been included in the computation of diluted loss per share since the effect would be anti-dilutive. The potential common shares issuable as of June 30, 2008 and 2007 are outlined below:

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In May 2008, FASB issued SFAS No. 162, “The Hierarchy of Generally Accepted Accounting Principles,” (“SFAS 162”). SFAS 162 identifies the sources of accounting principles and the framework for selecting the principles to be used in the preparation of financial statements that are presented in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States. SFAS 162 is effective 60 days following the Securities and Exchange Commission’s approval of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board amendments to AU Section 411, “The Meaning of Present Fairly in Conformity with Generally Accepted
 
9

 
Accounting Principles.” The Company does not expect SFAS 162 to have a material impact on its condensed consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

On February 15, 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 159, entitled ‘‘The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities,’’ (“SFAS 159”).  The guidance in SFAS 159 ‘‘allows’’ reporting entities to ‘‘choose’’ to measure many financial instruments and certain other items at fair value. The objective underlying the development of this literature is to improve financial reporting by providing reporting entities with the opportunity to reduce volatility in reported earnings that results from measuring related assets and liabilities differently without having to apply complex hedge accounting provisions, using the guidance in SFAS No. 133, as amended, entitled ‘‘Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities.’’  The provisions of SFAS No. 159 are applicable to all reporting entities and are effective as of the beginning of the first fiscal year that begins subsequent to November 15, 2007.  The Company does not expect that this pronouncement will have a significant impact on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

NOTE 4 – EQUITY FINANCING

On December 6, 2007, the Company closed on a $4.7 million preferred stock equity financing before financing related fees and expenses of approximately $289,000.  As part of this financing transaction, the Company issued 78,334 shares of Series F convertible preferred stock at $60 a share.  Each share of the Series F preferred stock is convertible into 100 shares of common stock, subject to anti-dilution provisions, or an aggregate of 7,833,400 shares of common stock. Pursuant to the Preferred Stock Agreement, the Company also entered into a Registration Rights agreement whereas it is obligated to file a Registration Statement with the SEC registering the underlying securities of common stock. The Company also issued warrants to purchase an aggregate of 3,133,360 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $0.80 per share for a period of five years. The fair value of such warrants granted amounted to approximately $970,000 utilizing the Black-Scholes valuation model and a relative fair value of approximately $804,000.  The Company has determined that the preferred stock was issued with an effective beneficial conversion feature of approximately $2,370,000 based upon the relative fair values of the preferred stock of approximately $3,896,000 and warrants of approximately $804,000 using the Black Scholes valuation model.  As such, this beneficial conversion feature is recorded as a deemed preferred stock dividend. The maximum amount of additional beneficial conversion feature that could be recognized in the future if the re-pricing adjustment clause indicated below is triggered is approximately $1,526,000. The Company has also issued warrants to purchase an aggregate of 400,000 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $0.85 per share for a period of five years as part of the placement fee, to a placement agent and its designees. Using the Black Scholes valuation model the Company has determined that the fair value of these warrants is $0.29 per share which equates to a fair value of approximately $117,000.  The following assumptions were used in the calculation of the model: common stock based on a closing market price of $0.85 per share, exercise price of $0.80 per share, zero dividends, volatility of 59.15%, risk free interest rate of 3.35% and expected life of 2.5 years. The fair valuation of these warrants has been included in the Company’s additional paid-in-capital and has no impact on its statement of operations.

The Series F preferred stock placement contains a re-pricing adjustment clause, whereby if the Company, at any time while the Preferred Stock is outstanding, sells or grants any option to purchase or sell or grants any right to re-price its securities, or otherwise disposes of or issues (or announces any sale, grant or any option to purchase or other disposition) any Common Stock or Common Stock Equivalents entitling any Person to acquire shares of Common Stock at an effective price per share that is lower than the then Conversion Price (“Dilutive Issuance”), such issuance shall be deemed to have occurred for less than the Conversion Price of the previously issued and outstanding Preferred Stock. The Conversion Price of the previously issued and outstanding Preferred Stock shall be reduced by multiplying the Conversion Price by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of shares of Common Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Dilutive Issuance plus the number of shares of Common Stock and Common Stock Equivalents which the aggregate consideration received or receivable by the Company in connection with such Dilutive Issuance would purchase at the then effective Conversion Price, and the denominator of which shall be the sum of the number of shares of Common Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Dilutive Issuance plus the number of shares of Common Stock and Common Stock Equivalents so issued or issuable in connection with the Dilutive Issuance.
 
10

 
Pursuant to the 2006 preferred stock placement, the Company issued 241,933 shares of Series D preferred stock, whereby each share was initially convertible into ten shares of common stock, subject to anti-dilution provisions.  By reason of these anti-dilution provisions, after the Series F preferred stock placement, each non-converted share of Series D preferred stock of which there are 194,933, is convertible into 19.42 shares of common stock or an aggregate of 3,785,699 shares of common stock.  Accordingly, upon the conversion of the remaining 194,933 shares of Series D preferred stock, the Company will issue an additional 1,836,369 shares of common stock.  As of June 30, 2008 there are 172,933 shares of Series D preferred stock outstanding, which is convertible into 3,358,459 shares of common stock.  The relative fair value of the warrants issued in connection with the Series D convertible preferred stock was $446,134 and the initial beneficial conversion feature that was recognized upon the issuance of the Series D preferred stock was $1,317,061.  The remaining maximum amount of $1,236,805 was recognized as beneficial conversion feature, upon the issuance of the Series E preferred stock.  Accordingly, while the issuance of the Series F preferred stock did trigger the anti-dilution provisions as indicated above, the Company did not record an additional beneficial conversion feature.

Pursuant to the anti-dilution provisions of the 2005 Series C Preferred Stock placement, the Company has issued an additional 1,620,998 Series A warrants and 330,722 Series B warrants.  The original exercise price at the time of the placement for the Series A warrants was $5.80 and for the Series B warrants was $2.90.  In accordance with these provisions, the exercise price of both the newly issued and originally issued warrants is now $1.25 and $0.93 for the Series A and Series B warrants respectively.  The adjustment of the conversion price was determined as per the following calculation: Adjusted conversion Price is equal to (A x B)+D divided by A+C, where “A” equals the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding, including additional shares of common stock deemed to be issued hereunder; “B” equals the Warrant Price in effect immediately preceding such issuance, “C” equals the number of Additional Shares of Common Stock issued or deemed issued hereunder as a result of the issuance and “D equals the aggregate consideration, if any received or deemed to be received by the Company. Upon any adjustment to the Warrant Price pursuant to the above, the number of warrant shares purchasable hereunder shall be adjusted by multiplying such number by a fraction, the numerator of which shall be the Warrant Price in effect immediately prior to such adjustment and the denominator of which shall be the warrant price in effect immediately thereafter.

The warrants associated with the both the Series E and Series F Preferred Stock Placements contain the same anti-dilution provision of those associated with the Series C Preferred Stock Placement as indicated above.  To date there have been no adjustments to either the Series E or Series F placement warrants.

As previously stated, the Company is obligated to file a registration statement with the SEC registering the underlying securities of the Series E preferred stock.  The Registration Rights Agreement contains certain allowable delays before liquidating damages start to accrue.  As of June 30, 2008, such liquidating damages have not been triggered.
 
The Company has determined that the Series F Preferred Stock was issued with an effective beneficial conversion feature of approximately $2,370,000 based upon the relative fair values of the preferred stock and warrants using the Black Scholes valuation model.  As such, this beneficial conversion feature is recorded as a deemed preferred stock dividend. The maximum amount of additional beneficial conversion feature that could be recognized in the future if the re-pricing adjustment clause is triggered is approximately $1,526,000.
 
NOTE 5 – DEEMED DIVIDEND

During the six months ended March 31, 2007, in calculating the deemed dividend on the Series E Preferred stock and related warrants, the Company erroneously overstated the deemed dividend by approximately $638,000 in its condensed consolidated financial statements. The amount of beneficial conversion feature that was originally recognized was $2,346,938.  The amount of beneficial conversion feature that should have been recognized was $1,709,402.  This error occurred since the Company recognized a beneficial conversion feature that was in excess of the gross proceeds allocated to the Series E convertible preferred stock. The Company has corrected this error prospectively in the amended condensed consolidated financial statements for the three and nine months ended June 30, 2008.
 
11

 
Due to certain anti-dilution provisions, triggered by the issuance of the Series E Preferred Stock, the Company was also required to recalculate the deemed dividend on the outstanding Series D preferred stock.  This additional deemed dividend was erroneously understated by approximately $1,237,000 on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements for the six months ended March 31, 2007. The Company has corrected this error prospectively in the amended condensed consolidated financial statements for the three and nine months ended June 30, 2008.

The net effect of these erroneous computations resulted in a net understatement of deemed dividend related to the preferred shares of approximately $599,000 or ($0.17 per common share).  As these accounting errors are not considered material on a quantitative basis the Company will not be restating the previously issued audited consolidated financial statements for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2007.

NOTE 6 – STOCKHOLDER’S EQUITY

Stock Options

On March 4, 2008, the Company’s Board of Directors granted options to two employees and one consultant for the purchase of 60,000, 20,000 and 40,000 shares of its common stock. The options granted to the employees have a term of 10 years, vesting after six months as to one-eighth of the options granted, and the balance vesting in equal monthly installments over the next forty-two months at an exercise price of $0.50 per share.  The fair value of these options of $0.24 was estimated as of the issue date using a Black-Scholes pricing model with the following assumptions: common stock based on a closing market price of $0.50 per share, exercise price of $0.50 per share, zero dividends, and expected volatility of 59%, risk free interest rate of 2.73% and expected life of 4 years. The Company recorded $218,295 and $208,764 of stock option compensation for the nine months ended June 30, 2008 and 2007, respectively which is included in selling, general and administrative expenses in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations. As of June 30, 2008, the fair value of the unvested stock options amounted to $560,269 which is expected to be recognized over a weighted average period of approximately 2.11 years.

Transactions under the stock option plan during the nine month period ended June 30, 2008 are summarized as follows:

The intrinsic value is calculated as the difference between the market value of the Company’s common stock at June 30, 2008, which was $0.30 per share and the exercise price of the options.

Warrants

On June 6, 2008, the Company issued to an investor relations firm, warrants to purchase an aggregate of 100,000 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $0.50 per share for a period of five years. These warrants will vest immediately at any point during the initial six month period, when certain benchmarks are achieved.  If at the end of the initial six month period, said benchmarks are not achieved then these warrants will be cancelled. Using the Black Scholes valuation model with the following assumptions: common stock based on a closing market price of $0.33 per share, exercise price of $0.50 per share, zero dividends, expected volatility of 77.17%, risk free interest rate of 3.20% and an expected life of 5 years, the Company has determined that the fair value of these warrants is $0.185 per share which equates to a fair value of approximately $18,500.   As of June 30, 2008, no compensation charge has been recorded since they have not vested yet because of the existing contingency.

As part of the December 2007 preferred stock equity financing, the Company issued warrants to purchase an aggregate of 3,133,360 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $0.80 per share for a period of five years. The relative fair value of such warrants granted amounted to approximately $804,000 utilizing the Black-Scholes valuation model. The Company has also issued warrants to purchase an aggregate of 400,000 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $0.85 per share for a period of five years as part of the placement fee, to a placement agent. Using the Black Scholes valuation model the Company has determined that the fair value of these warrants is $0.29 per share which equates to a fair value of approximately $117,000.  All warrants associated with this transaction are for a period of five years, and expire in December 2012.

Pursuant to the anti-dilution provisions of the 2005 Series C Preferred Stock placement, after the close of the Series F placement, the Company has issued an additional 518,439 Series A warrants and 79,522 Series B warrants.  In accordance with these provisions, the exercise price of both the newly issued and previously issued warrants was modified to $1.25 and $0.93 for the Series A and Series B respectively. There was no accounting effect of this transaction to the financial statements.

The dividends are payable pari passu on the series of preferred stock.  At June 30, 2008, the accrued dividends aggregated $333,300.
 
NOTE 7 – ECONOMIC DEPENDENCY

For the nine months ended June 30, 2008, product sales from two customers were approximately $1,164,000 and $324,000 respectively which represented approximately 45% and 12.5% of the total revenue.   At June 30, 2008, accounts receivable for these two customers was $0 and $280,000, respectively.

For the nine months ended June 30, 2007, product sales from two customers was approximately $706,000 and $339,000 which represented approximately 38.7% and 18.6% of the total revenue.

NOTE  8 – INCOME TAXES

Effective October 1, 2007, the Company adopted the provisions of Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Interpretation 48, “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes – an interpretation of FASB 109” (“FIN 48”). FIN 48 prescribes a recognition threshold and a measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition and measurement of tax positions taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. For those benefits to be recognized, it must be more likely than not that a tax position will be sustained upon examination by taxing authorities. Differences between tax positions taken and or expected to be taken in a tax return and the benefit recognized and measured pursuant to the interpretation are referred to as “unrecognized benefits”. A liability is recognized (or amount of net operating loss carry forward or amount of tax refundable is reduced) for an unrecognized tax benefit because it represents an enterprise’s potential future obligation to the taxing authority for a tax position that was not recognized as a result of applying provisions of FIN 48.

In accordance with FIN 48, interest costs related to unrecognized tax benefits are required to be calculated (if applicable) and would be classified within “Interest income, net” in the consolidated statements of operations. Penalties would be recognized as a component of “Selling, general and administrative expenses”. No interest and penalties were recorded during the nine months ended June 30, 2008.

The Company files income tax returns in the United States (federal) and in various states and local jurisdictions. In most instances, the Company is no longer subject to federal, state and local income tax examination by tax authorities for the years prior to 2003.

The adoption of the provision of FIN 48 did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial position and results of operations. As of June 30, 2008, no liability for unrecognized tax benefits was required to be recorded.

The Company’s utilization of the NOL carryforwards is subject to an annual limitation due to ownership changes that have occurred previously or that could occur in the future as provided in Section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as well as similar state and foreign provisions.  In general, an ownership change, as defined by Section 382, results from transactions increasing the ownership of certain
 
14

 
stockholders or public group in the stock of a corporation by more than fifty percentage points over a three-year period. Since its formation, the Company has raised capital through the issuance of capital stock and various convertible instruments which combined with the purchasing shareholders’ subsequent disposition of these shares, has resulted in an ownership change, as defined by Section 382, and also could result in an ownership change in the future upon subsequent disposition.

This annual limitation is determined by first multiplying the value of the Company’s stock at the time of ownership change by the applicable long-term tax exempt rate, and could then be subject to additional adjustments, as required. Any limitation may result in expiration of a portion of the NOL carryforwards before utilization.  Upon adoption of FIN 48, the Company estimated that a substantial majority of the NOL’s are subject to limitations due to the change in ownership provisions under Section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code.  After giving effect to such changes, the Company estimates that its NOLS available to offset future taxable income, if any, amount to approximately $5.9 million.  The Company reduced the carrying amount of its net deferred tax asset and related valuation allowance from approximately $14.9 million to $2.2 million for the tax effect of reducing its NOLS from approximately $43.3 million to $5.9 million.
 
A full valuation allowance is being maintained resulting in a net deferred tax asset of zero until sufficient positive evidence exists to support the reversal of any portion or all of the valuation allowance net of appropriate reserves. Should the Company become profitable in future periods with supportable trends, the valuation allowance will be reduced accordingly.

NOTE  9 – COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

Effective January 1, 2006, the Company entered into a new lease for its corporate offices in Hackensack, New Jersey expiring on September 30, 2011.  Under the terms of this agreement, the Company leases 4,177 square feet at a base monthly rental of approximately $7,500 plus certain escalation charges as defined, under the lease.

NOTE 10 – LITIGATION

In May 2006, Andre Sassoon and Andre Sassoon International, Inc. (the “Plaintiffs”), filed a complaint against Caprius Inc., MCM Environmental Technologies, and George Aaron, (collectively, the “Company Defendants”) in the Supreme Court of the State of New York, New York County, claiming that the Defendants had breached a royalty agreement entered into as part of the December 2002 MCM acquisition to pay $400,000 as settlement of a note previously issued by MCM.  The complaint also names all persons who were stockholders of MCM at the time of Caprius’ original investment in MCM in December 2002.  In June 2006, the Plaintiffs filed an amended complaint to include additional counts, alleging certain misrepresentations by the Company Defendants related to the agreement with the Plaintiffs.  The Plaintiffs are seeking damages in excess of $400,000 or the stock interest of the MCM stockholders at the time of Caprius’ acquisition.  The Company's royalty obligation under the agreement is based upon a formula related to certain sales of SteriMed units.  The Company Defendants have asserted that none of the unit sales during the royalty period was subject to the formula.  However, even assuming that all SteriMed unit sales during such period were subject to the formula, the royalty amount would have been only approximately $160,000.  The Company Defendants continue to assert that none of the unit sales of SteriMed were subject to the royalty formula and the Company has not accrued any royalties to date regarding this matter.  The Company Defendants believe that the Plaintiffs’ misrepresentation claims have no merit. They will continue to defend this action.  Discovery has been undertaken, and the final depositions are to be scheduled.  Accordingly, we have not recorded any accrual for the probable loss in connection with this litigation as of June 30, 2008, since we are unable to reasonably estimate the probable loss.

Item 2:  Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Conditions and Results of Operations

Forward Looking Statements

The Company is including the following cautionary statement in this Quarterly Report of Form 10-QSB to make applicable and take advantage of the safe harbor provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 for any forward-looking statements made by, or on behalf of, the Company.  Forward-looking statements include statements concerning plans, objectives, goals, strategies, future events or performance and underlying assumptions and other statements which are other than statements of historical facts.  Certain statements contained herein are forward-looking statements and accordingly involve risks and uncertainties which could cause actual results or outcomes to differ materially from those expressed in the forward-looking statements.  Our expectations, beliefs and projections are expressed in good faith and are believed by us to have a reasonable basis, including without limitation, management’s examination of historical operating trends, data contained in our records and other data available from third parties, but there can be no assurance that management’s expectation, beliefs or projections will result or be achieved or accomplished.  In addition to other factors and matters discussed elsewhere herein, the following are important factors that, in our view, could cause actual results to differ materially from those discussed in the forward-looking statements: technological advances by our competitors, changes in health care reform, including reimbursement programs, changes to regulatory requirements relating to environmental approvals for the treatment of infectious medical waste, capital needs to fund any delays or extensions of development programs, delays in the manufacture of  new and existing products by us or third party contractors, market acceptance of our products, the loss of any key employees, delays in obtaining federal, state or local regulatory clearance for new installations and operations, changes in governmental regulations, the location of the MCM business in Israel, and availability of capital on terms satisfactory to us.  We are also subject to numerous Risk Factors relating to manufacturing, regulatory, financial resources and personnel as described in the Company’s Form S-1 Pre Effective Amendment No. 2 (File No. 333-148792) as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission, on June 30, 2008.  We disclaim any obligation to update any forward-looking statements to reflect events or circumstances after the date hereof.
 
During the six months ended March 31, 2007, in calculating the deemed dividend on the Series E Preferred shares and related warrants, the Company erroneously overstated the deemed dividend by approximately $638,000 in its condensed consolidated financial statements.  Due to certain anti-dilution provisions, triggered by the issuance of the Series E Preferred Stock, the Company was also required to recalculate the deemed dividend on the outstanding Series D preferred stock.  This additional deemed dividend was erroneously understated by approximately $1,237,000 on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements for the six months ended March 31, 2007. The Company has corrected these errors prospectively in the amended condensed consolidated financial statements for the three and nine months ended June 30, 2008. The net effect of these erroneous computations resulted in a net understatement of deemed dividend related to the preferred shares of approximately $599,000 or ($0.17 per common share).  As these accounting errors are not considered material on a quantitative basis the Company will not be restating the previously issued audited financial statements for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2007.

Results of Operations

As more fully described in the Form 10-KSB for fiscal year ended September 30, 2007, our business operation is classified as medical infectious waste business.

Three Months Ended June 30, 2008 Compared to Three Months Ended June 30, 2007

Revenues generated from MCM product sales totaled $ 795,492 for the three months ended June 30, 2008 as compared to $646,216 for the three months ended June 30, 2007.  This increase in sales is attributed to the Company’s expanded penetration into several markets that the Company has been developing for its products and the greater acceptance of our technology in the marketplace both domestically and internationally. For the three months ended June 30, 2008, no revenue has been generated from the sale of extended warranty contracts.
 
By reason of the termination of the Seradyn royalty agreement during Fiscal 2007 we did not receive any consulting or royalty fees in the three months ended June 30, 2008 as compared to $29,540 for the three months ended June 30, 2007.
 
Cost of product sales amounted to $557,108 or 70% of total related revenues versus $483,468 or 74.8% of total related revenues for the three month periods ended June 30, 2008 and 2007. We have not advanced to a level of sales for us to fully absorb the fixed costs related to our revenues.  The decreased percentage cost is due to the sales product mix.
 
Research and development expense increased to $85,695 versus $58,577 for the three month period ended June 30, 2008 as compared to the same period in 2007.  The increase is due primarily to our efforts to bring further value-added technology to our products as well as an effort to develop technology that will assist in offsetting the increased costs of raw materials and the decline in value of the US dollar.

Selling, general and administrative expenses totaled $1,525,454 for the three months ended June 30, 2008 versus $1,112,665 for the three months ended June 30, 2007. This increase is principally due to increased personnel costs (hiring of additional employees and related benefit costs), an increase in recorded stock-based compensation, as well as the related increase in travel, marketing expenses and participation in trade shows in order to facilitate the development of additional sales markets both domestically and internationally.

Other income totaled $0 for the three months ended June 30, 2008 as compared to $500,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2007.  This resulted from the termination of the Company’s Royalty Agreement within this period.
 
Interest income, net totaled $12,121 for the three months ended June 30, 2008 versus $12,942 for the three months ended June 30, 2007.  The slight decrease in interest income was due to declining interest rates as we had similar available cash to invest in these comparative periods.

The net loss amounted to $1,360,644 and $466,012 for the three month periods ended June 30, 2008 and 2007, respectively.

Nine Months Ended  June 30, 2008 Compared to Nine Months Ended  June 30, 2007

Revenues generated from MCM product sales totaled $2,584,165 for the nine months ended June 30, 2008 as compared to $1,699,812 for the nine months ended June 30, 2007.  This increase in sales is attributed to the Company’s expanded penetration into several markets that the Company has been developing for its products and the greater acceptance of our technology in the marketplace, both domestically and internationally. Through June 30, 2008, no revenue has been generated from the sale of extended warranty contracts.
 
By reason of the termination of the Seradyn royalty agreement during Fiscal 2007 we did not receive any consulting or royalty fees in the nine months ended June 30, 2008 as compared to $123,965 for the nine months ended June 30, 2007.
 
Cost of product sales amounted to $1,917,225 or 74.2% of total related revenues versus $1,163,011 or 68.4% of total related revenues for the nine month periods ended June 30, 2008 and 2007. We have not advanced to a level of sales for us to fully absorb the fixed costs related to our revenues. The increased percentage cost is due to increases in the cost of raw materials, the decline in the value of the US dollar, the sales product mix, increased production overhead and labor costs.

Research and development expense decreased to $219,637 versus $207,142 for the nine month period ended June 30, 2008 as compared to the same period in 2007.  This slight increase is due to our effort to continue to explore various technologies and upgrades to bring value-added technology to our products and to try an offset the increased costs of raw materials and the decline in the value of the US dollar.

Selling, general and administrative expenses totaled $3,984,369 for the nine months ended June 30, 2008 versus $3,009,442 for the nine months ended June 30, 2007. This increase is principally due to increased personnel costs (hiring of additional employees and related benefit costs), an increase in recorded stock-based compensation, as well as the related increase in travel, marketing expenses and participation in trade shows in order to facilitate the development of additional sales markets both domestically and internationally.

Other income totaled $0 for the nine months ended June 30, 2008 as compared to $500,000 for the nine months ended June 30, 2007.  This resulted from the termination of the Seradyn royalty agreement within this period.

Interest income, net totaled $37,525 for the nine months ended June 30, 2008 versus $18,922 for the nine months ended June 30, 2007.   The increase in interest income was due to the additional available cash that we had in interest bearing accounts, as a result of the closing of the Series F placement in December 2007, although interest rates have declined.

The net loss amounted to $3,499,541 and $2,036,896 for the nine month periods ended June 30, 2008 and 2007, respectively.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

At June 30, 2008, our cash and cash equivalents position approximated $1,446,220 versus $1,373,919 at June 30, 2007. Our working capital as of June 30, 2008 was $2,287,471.  Net cash used in operations for the nine months ended June 30, 2008 amounted to $3,554,427.  Net cash used in investing activities amounted to $45,111. Net cash provided by financing activities (the December 2007 placement) amounted to $4,411,101.
 
As of June 30, 2008, accounts receivable, net amounted to $877,779 was 20% of total assets.  Of the $877,779 in accounts receivable, approximately $448,991 was less than 30 days, $23,110 was 60 days and $405,678 was 90 days and older.  The normal collection period is between 45 and 90 days, but as we develop new relationships or business in new countries, we sometimes permit customers or distributors, extended payment terms to attract new business.  Presently, we have collected 26% of these receivables and continue to work closely with those remaining accounts to clear any outstanding balances.  Due to our past history with collections, especially where we extend payment times for distributors in new territories that we are attempting to create markets for our product, with these customers/distributors we are reasonably confident that all of the remaining receivables are collectible.

Inventory turnover ratio which are determined by computing the Annualized Cost of Goods sold divided by Average inventory were 2.02 for the nine months ended June 30, 2008 and 1.46 for the nine months ended June 30, 2007.  The increase in the inventory turnover rate is due to the significant increase in the number of units sold in the nine months ended June 30, 2008, as compared to the same period in fiscal 2007.

On December 6, 2007, the Company closed on a $4.7 million Series F Preferred Stock equity financing before financing related fees and expenses of approximately $289,000.  This placement consisted of 78,334 shares of Series F Convertible Preferred Stock at $60 a share.  Each share of the Series F Preferred Stock is convertible into 100 shares of common stock, subject to anti-dilution provisions, or an aggregate of 7,833,400 shares of common stock.  The holders of the Series F Preferred Stock are entitled to receive a cash dividend at a per share rate equal to $3.24 per annum.  The liquidation and dividend rights of the holders of the Series F Preferred Stock rank pari passu with those of the holders of the Series E and Series D Preferred Stock.

Going Concern and Management’s Plan

The Company has incurred substantial recurring losses.  In addition, the Company is a defendant in an action seeking damages in excess of $400,000.  Although management believes the Company has a meritorious defense against such a lawsuit, an unfavorable outcome of such action could have a materially adverse impact on our business.  The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of the uncertainty of this litigation since we are unable to reasonably estimate the possible loss.  In December 2007, the Company raised net proceeds of $4.4 million in a placement of Series F convertible preferred stock, the details of which are outlined above. These funds are being utilized to support the Company’s marketing efforts, obtain additional regulatory approvals both domestically and overseas as well as to provide for increased manufacturing. The net proceeds from this placement should fulfill the Company’s capital needs for the current fiscal year, based upon its present business plan.  We intend to retain and use any future earnings for the development and expansion of our business and payment of accrued dividends on the preferred stock, and do not anticipate paying any cash dividends on the common stock in the foreseeable future.
 
In order to fund the additional cash requirements, the Company continues to pursue efforts to identify additional funds through various funding options. Given the Company’s low share price and current volume of business, there is no assurance that we will be able to obtain such additional funding or on terms not highly dilutive to current stockholders, and the lack of additional capital could have a material adverse impact on our business. If we are unable to generate sufficient cash flows from our business operations or raise additional funding to continue our operations, we will have to implement a plan to drastically curtail operations to reduce operating costs until sufficient additional capital is raised. There can be no assurance that such a plan, if implemented, will be successful.  The aforementioned factors raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In May 2008, FASB issued SFAS No. 162, “The Hierarchy of Generally Accepted Accounting Principles,” (“SFAS 162”). SFAS 162 identifies the sources of accounting principles and the framework for selecting the principles to be used in the preparation of financial statements that are presented in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States. SFAS 162 is effective 60 days following the Securities and Exchange Commission’s approval of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board amendments to AU Section 411, “The Meaning of Present Fairly in Conformity with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles.” The Company does not expect SFAS 162 to have a material impact on its condensed consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

On February 15, 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 159, entitled ‘‘The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities,’’ (“SFAS 159”).  The guidance in SFAS 159 ‘‘allows’’ reporting entities to ‘‘choose’’ to measure many financial instruments and certain other items at fair value. The objective underlying the development of this literature is to improve financial reporting by providing reporting entities with the opportunity to reduce volatility in reported earnings that results from measuring related assets and liabilities differently without having to apply complex hedge accounting provisions, using the guidance in SFAS No. 133, as amended, entitled ‘‘Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities.’’  The provisions of SFAS No. 159 are applicable to all reporting entities and are effective as of the beginning of the first fiscal year that begins subsequent to November 15, 2007.  The Company does not expect that this pronouncement will have a significant impact on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

Item 3A (T).  Controls and Procedures

Our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, based on their evaluation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) as of June 30, 2008, have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures are  effective to ensure that material information relating to us and our consolidated subsidiaries are recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified by the SEC’s rules and forms, particularly during the period in which this quarterly report has been prepared.

Our principal executive officer and principal financial officer have concluded that there were no  changes in our internal controls over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) or in other factors that could have materially affected, or were reasonably likely to materially affect, these controls for the quarter ended June 30, 2008, the date of their most recent evaluation of such controls, and that there were no significant deficiencies or material weaknesses in our internal controls.

PART II:  OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1.  Legal Proceedings

In May 2006, Andre Sassoon and Andre Sassoon International, Inc. (the “Plaintiffs”), filed a complaint against Caprius Inc., MCM Environmental Technologies, and George Aaron, (collectively, the “Company Defendants”) in the Supreme Court of the State of New York, New York County, claiming that the Defendants had breached a royalty agreement entered into as part of the December 2002 MCM acquisition to pay $400,000 as settlement of a note previously issued by MCM.  The complaint also names all persons who were stockholders of MCM at the time of Caprius’ original investment in MCM in December 2002.  In June 2006, the Plaintiffs filed an amended complaint to include additional counts, alleging certain misrepresentations by the Company Defendants related to the agreement with the Plaintiffs.  The Plaintiffs are seeking damages in excess of $400,000 or the stock interest of the MCM stockholders at the time of Caprius’ acquisition.  The Company's royalty obligation under the agreement is based upon a formula related to certain sales of SteriMed units.  The Company Defendants have asserted that none of the unit sales during the royalty period was subject to the formula.  However, even assuming that all SteriMed unit sales during such period were subject to the formula, the royalty amount would have been only approximately $160,000.  The Company Defendants continue to assert that none of the unit sales of SteriMed were subject to the royalty formula and the Company has not accrued any royalties to date regarding this matter.  The Company Defendants believe that the Plaintiffs’ misrepresentation claims have no merit. They will continue to defend this action.  Discovery has been undertaken, and the final depositions are to be scheduled.  Accordingly, we have not recorded any accrual for the probable loss in connection with this litigation as of June 30, 2008, since we are unable to reasonably estimate the probable loss.
 
Item 2. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds

On June 6, 2008, the Company issued to an investor relations firm, warrants to purchase an aggregate of 100,000 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $0.50 per share for a period of five years. These warrants will vest immediately at any point during the initial six month period, when certain benchmarks are achieved.  If at the end of the initial six month period, said benchmarks are not achieved than these warrants will be cancelled.
