(A Development Stage Company Commencing January 1, 2002) NOTES TO CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED) NOTE 1 - DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS Water Chef, Inc. (the "Company"), is a Delaware corporation currently engaged in the design and marketing of water dispensers and purification equipment both inside and outside the United States. NOTE 2 - BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND ACCOUNTING POLICES The accompanying unaudited condensed financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America for interim financial information. Accordingly, these financial statements do not include all of the information and footnotes required for annual financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary to make the financial statements not misleading have been included. Operating results for the three-month period ended March 31, 2005 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2005. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and footnotes thereto included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-KSB, filed on April 6, 2005, for the year ended December 31, 2004. Accounts receivable-Accounts receivable is reported net of an allowance for doubtful accounts, future returns, and markdowns and allowances. The amount of each allowance was determined by management to be adequate based on a periodic review of the status of the individual accounts receivable and the volume of returns. Revenue recognition-Revenue is recognized when products are shipped, title passes and collectibility is reasonably assured. Stock-Based Compensation - In December 2002, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 148, "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation - Transition and Disclosure - an amendment of FASB Statement No. 123." SFAS No. 148 amends SFAS No. 123, "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation," to provide alternative methods of transition for a voluntary change to the fair value based method of accounting for stock-based employee compensation. In addition, SFAS No. 148 amends the disclosure requirements of SFAS No. 123 to require prominent disclosures in both annual and interim financial statements about the method of accounting for stock-based employee compensation and the effect of the method used on reported results. The Company will continue to account for stock-based compensation according to APB Opinion No. 25. The following table summarizes relevant information as to reported results under the Company's intrinsic value method of accounting for stock awards, with supplemental information as if the fair value recognition provisions of SFAS No.123 had been applied for the periods ended March 31, 2005 and 2004 as follows: Three Months Ended March 31, ------------------------------ 2005 2004 ----------- ----------- Net loss applicable to common stock $ (4,196) $ (594,702) Add: Stock-based employee compensation adjustment included in reported net loss -- -- Less: Stock-based employee compensation cost net of tax effect under fair value accounting -- (34,618) ----------- ----------- Proforma net loss under fair value accounting $ (4,196) $ (629,320) =========== =========== Loss per share - basic and diluted as reported $ (0.00) $ (0.01) =========== =========== Proforma loss per share - basic and diluted $ (0.00) $ (0.01) =========== =========== 6 WATERCHEF, INC. (A Development Stage Company Commencing January 1, 2002) NOTES TO CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED) NOTE 3 - GOING CONCERN The accompanying condensed financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. The Company has suffered recurring losses and has a working capital deficiency of approximately $2,523,000 at March 31, 2005. These conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. Management's plans with respect to these matters include restructuring its existing debt, settling its existing debt by issuing shares of its common stock and raising additional capital through future issuance of stock and or debentures. The accompanying financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern. NOTE 4 - RECENT ACCOUNTING STANDARDS In December 2004, the FASB issued SFAS No. 123R, "Share Based Payment." This statement is a revision of SFAS No. 123, "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation" and supersedes APB Opinion No. 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees, and its related implementation guidance. SFAS No.123R addresses all forms of share based payment ("SBP") awards including shares issued under employee stock purchase plans, stock options, restricted stock and stock appreciation rights. Under SFAS No.123R, SBP awards result in a cost that will be measured at fair value on the awards' grant dates, based on the estimated number of awards that are expected to vest. This statement is effective for public entities that file as small business issuers - as of the beginning of the first interim or annual reporting period that begins after December 15, 2005. The adoption of this pronouncement is not expected to have a material effect on the Company's financial statements. NOTE 5 - NET INCOME (LOSS) PER SHARE OF COMMON STOCK Basic loss per share was computed using the weighted average number of outstanding common shares. Diluted loss per share includes the effect of dilutive common stock equivalents from the assumed exercise of options, warrants and convertible preferred stock. Common stock equivalents were excluded in the computation of diluted loss per share since their inclusion would be anti-dilutive. Total shares issuable upon the exercise of options, warrants and conversion of preferred stock for the three months ended March 31, 2005 and 2004 were 31,325,702 and 49,781,309, respectively. NOTE 6 - COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES Leases ------ The Company leases its administrative facilities, located in Glen Head, New York, on a month-to-month basis. NOTE 7 - COMMON STOCK ISSUED Cash ---- During the three months ended March 31, 2005, the Company raised $10,000 through the sale of 200,000 shares of common stock. Services -------- During the three months ended March 31, 2005, the Company issued 230,000 shares of common stock for services for a value of $18,000. Conversion of preferred stock into common stock ----------------------------------------------- During the three months ended March 31, 2005, the Company issued various parties 2,518,800 shares of common stock in connection with the conversion of preferred stock. 7 WATERCHEF, INC. (A Development Stage Company Commencing January 1, 2002) NOTES TO CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED) NOTE 8- MAJOR CUSTOMERS During the quarter ended March 31, 2005, the Company sold five units to two customers. During the quarter ended March 31, 2004, the Company sold one unit to one customer. At March 31, 2005, accounts receivable from one customer totaled $125,000. 8 ITEM 2 - MANAGEMENTS DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OR PLAN OF OPERATION The following discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations of the Company should be read in conjunction with the Company's Financial Statements and related Footnotes. Forward-Looking Statements -------------------------- Management's discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations and other sections of this Report contain "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. We intend for the forward-looking statements to be covered by the safe harbor provisions for forward-looking statements in these sections. All statements regarding the Company's expected financial position, business and financing plans are forward-looking statements. Such forward-looking statements are identified by use of forward-looking words such as "anticipates," "believes," "plans," "estimates," "expects," and "intends" or words or phrases of similar expression. These forward-looking statements are subject to various assumptions, risks and uncertainties, including but not limited to, changes in political and economic conditions, demand for the Company's products, acceptance of new products, technology developments affecting the Company's products and to those discussed in the Company's filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Accordingly, actual results could differ materially from those contemplated by the forward-looking statements. Introduction ------------ Until the fourth quarter of 2001, Water Chef was engaged in the manufacture and marketing of water coolers and water purification and filtration products. In the fourth quarter of 2001, the Company completed the sale of this business in order to focus its activities on its PureSafe line of business. The PureSafe Water Station has been designed by the Company to meet the needs of communities who either do not have access to municipal water treatment systems, or for those whose systems have been compromised, either by environmental factors or by faulty design or maintenance. Results of Operations --------------------- Revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2005 and March 31, 2004 were $260,000 and $56,290 respectively. During the quarter ended March 31, 2005, the Company recognized the sale of five PureSafe Water Station Systems. Four of these systems are to be used for the sale of water in Ecuador, and the fifth system was purchased by a humanitarian buyer to be used as part of the tsunami relief effort in Sri Lanka. In addition, Water Chef received deposits of $115,000 during the first quarter for relief effort systems that will be shipped in the second quarter of 2005. Cost of sales for the three month periods ended March 31, 2005 and March 31, 2004 were $0 and $29,250 respectively. The cost of the units sold during the first quarter of year 2005 was previously written off. An analysis of the components of cost of sales in the 2005 and 2004 periods follows: Cost of Sales Product Rent and Overhead Period CGS Payments to Manufacturer Total For the three month Ended March 31, 2005 $ -- $ -- $ -- For the three month Ended March 31, 2004 13,250 16,000 29,250 Selling, general and administrative expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2005 were $347,979, compared to $285,706 for the three months ended March 31, 2004, an increase of 22% primarily caused by an increase in commissions payable associated with the sales of PureSafe Water Station Systems as described above. The net loss for the three months ended March 31, 2005 was $4,196 compared to $594,702 in the same period ended March 31, 2004. Liquidity and Capital Resources ------------------------------- At March 31, 2005, the Company had a working capital deficiency of approximately $2,523,000. In addition, the Company continues to suffer recurring losses. The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that that the Company will continue as a going concern. These conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. Management's plans with respect to these matters include restructuring its existing debt, raising additional capital through future issuances of stock and/or equity, and finding sufficient profitable markets for its products to generate sufficient cash to meet its business obligations. The accompanying financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern. During the three months ended March 31, 2005 the Company raised $10,000 from the sale of its common stock. 9 Recent Accounting Standards --------------------------- In December 2004, the FASB issued SFAS No. 123R, "Share Based Payment." This statement is a revision of SFAS No. 123, "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation" and supersedes APB Opinion No. 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees, and its related implementation guidance. SFAS No.123R addresses all forms of share based payment ("SBP") awards including shares issued under employee stock purchase plans, stock options, restricted stock and stock appreciation rights. Under SFAS No.123R, SBP awards result in a cost that will be measured at fair value on the awards' grant dates, based on the estimated number of awards that are expected to vest. This statement is effective for public entities that file as small business issuers - as of the beginning of the first interim or annual reporting period that begins after December 15, 2005. The adoption of this pronouncement is not expected to have a material effect on the Company's financial statements. ITEM 3 - CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES Evaluation and Disclosure Controls and Procedures ------------------------------------------------- The Company, under the supervision and with the participation of the Company's management, including the Company's Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, has evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Company's "disclosure controls and procedures," as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15e promulgated under the Exchange Act as of this report. Based upon that evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer has concluded that the Company's disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of the end of the period covered by this report to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed by the Company in reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in SEC rules and forms. Management is aware that there is a lack of segregation of duties at the Company due to the small number of employees dealing with general administrative and financial matters. This constitutes a material weakness in the financial reporting. However, at this time management has decided that considering the employees involved and the control procedures in place, the risks associated with such lack of segregation are insignificant and the potential benefits of adding additional employees to clearly segregate duties do not justify the expenses associated with such increases. Management will periodically reevaluate this situation. If the volume of the business increases and sufficient capital is secured, it is the Company's intention to increase staffing to mitigate the current lack of segregation of duties within the general administrative and financial functions. Changes in Internal Controls ---------------------------- There have been no changes in internal controls or in other factors that could significantly affect those controls subsequent to the date of their evaluation, including any corrective actions with regard to significant deficiencies and material weaknesses. Limitations on the Effectiveness of Controls -------------------------------------------- A control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met. Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within a Company have been detected. 10 PART 11 - OTHER INFORMATION ITEM 2 - CHANGES IN SECURITIES AND SMALL BUSINESS ISSUER PURCHASES OF EQUITY SECURITIES During the three months ended March 31, 2005, the Company raised $10,000 through the sale of 200,000 shares of common stock on March 21, 2005. During the three months ended March 31, 2005, the Company issued an aggregate of 230,000 shares of its Common stock for professional services totaling $18,000. During the three months ended March 31, 2005, the Company issued various parties 2,518,800 shares of common stock in connection with the conversion of preferred stock. The Company issued these shares in reliance on the exemption from registration afforded by Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933 and Regulation D promulgated thereunder. These shares were offered to less than 35 "non-accredited" investors and were purchased for investment purposes with no view to resale. 11 SIGNATURE Pursuant to the requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, the Registrant has caused this Report to be signed on its behalf by the undersigned thereunto duly authorized.
