NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1. Business description

We are a development stage biotechnology company utilizing multiple mechanisms of immunity with the intent to develop cancer vaccines that are more effective and safer than existing vaccines. To that end, we have licensed rights from the University of Pennsylvania (“Penn”) to use a patented system to engineer a live attenuated Listeria monocytogenes bacteria (the “Listeria System”) to secrete a protein sequence containing a tumor-specific antigen. Using the Listeria System, we believe we will force the body’s immune system to process and recognize the antigen as if it were foreign, creating the immune response needed to attack the cancer. Our licensed Listeria System, developed at Penn over the past 10 years, provides a scientific basis for believing that this therapeutic approach induces a significant immune response to a tumor. Accordingly, we believe that the Listeria System is a broadly enabling platform technology that can be applied to many types of cancers. In addition, we believe there may be useful applications in infectious diseases and auto-immune disorders. The therapeutic approach that comprises the Listeria System is based upon the innovative work of Yvonne Paterson, Ph.D., Professor of Microbiology at Penn, involving the creation of genetically engineered Listeria that stimulate the innate immune system and induce an antigen-specific immune response involving humoral and cellular components. We have obtained an exclusive 20-year license from Penn to exploit the Listeria System, subject to meeting various royalty and other obligations (the “Penn License”).
 
The interim financial statements include all adjustments which, in the opinion of management, are necessary to make the financial statements not misleading.
 
2. Option expenses
 
The Company has elected to apply APB opinion No. 25 and related interpretations in accounting for its stock option granted to employees and has adopted the disclosure only provisions of SFAS No. 123. Had the Company elected to recognize compensation cost based on the fair value of the options granted at the grant date as prescribed by SFAS No. 123, the Company’s net loss would have been as follows:

The Company accounts for non-employee stock based awards in which goods or services are the consideration received for the equity instrument issued based on the fair value of the equity instrument in accordance with the guidance provided in the consensus opinion of the Emerging Issues Task Force (“EITF”) issue 96-18, Accounting for Equity Instruments that are Issued to Other than Employees for Acquiring, or in Conjunction with Selling Goods or Services.
 
3. Recapitalization and financing
 
In November 2004, we acquired 100% of the stock of Advaxis. Advaxis was organized in 2002 to develop the Listeria System under patents licensed from Penn which are described above under “General” and later in this prospectus under “Business.”
 
We acquired Advaxis through a share exchange and reorganization (the “Recapitalization”), pursuant to which Advaxis became our wholly owned subsidiary. We acquired (i) all of the issued and outstanding shares of Advaxis’s common stock and Advaxis’s Series A preferred stock in exchange for an aggregate of 15,597,723 shares of authorized, but theretofore unissued, shares of our common stock, no par value, (ii) all of the issued and outstanding warrants to purchase Advaxis’s common stock, in exchange for warrants to purchase 584,885 of our shares; and (iii) all of the issued and outstanding options to purchase the common stock of Advaxis in exchange for an aggregate of 2,381,525 options to purchase our common stock, constituting approximately 96% of our common stock prior to the issuance of shares of our common stock in the private placement described below. Prior to the closing of the Recapitalization, we performed a 200-for-1 reverse stock split, thus reducing the issued and outstanding shares of our common stock from 150,520,000 shares to 752,600 shares. Additionally, 752,600 shares of our common stock were issued to the financial advisor in connection with the Recapitalization. Pursuant to the Recapitalization, there are 17,102,923 of our common shares issued and outstanding.
 
As a result of the transaction, the former shareholders of Advaxis are our controlling shareholders. Additionally, prior to the transaction, we had no substantial assets. Accordingly, the transaction is treated as a reverse acquisition of a public shell, and the transaction has been accounted for as a recapitalization of Advaxis, rather than a business combination. The historical financial statements of Advaxis are now our historical financial statements. Historical shareholders’ equity (deficiency) of Advaxis has been restated to reflect the recapitalization, and include the shares received in the transaction.
 
On November 12, 2004, we completed an initial closing of a private placement offering (the “Private Placement”), whereby we sold an aggregate of $2.925 million worth of units to accredited investors. Each unit was sold for $25,000 (the “Unit Price”) and consisted of (a) 87,108 shares of common stock and (b) a warrant to purchase, at any time prior to the fifth anniversary following the date of issuance of the warrant, to purchase 87,108 shares of common stock included at a price equal to $0.40 per share of common stock (a “Unit”). In consideration of the investment, we granted to each investor certain registration rights and anti-dilution rights. Also, in November 2004, we converted approximately $618,000 of aggregate principal promissory notes and accrued interest outstanding into Units.
 
On December 8, 2004, we completed a second closing of the Private Placement, whereby we sold an aggregate of $200,000 of Units to accredited investors.
 
On January 4, 2005, we completed a third and final closing of the Private Placement, whereby we sold an aggregate of $128,000 of Units to accredited investors.
 
Pursuant to the terms of a investment banking agreement, dated March 19, 2004, by and between us and Sunrise Securities, Corp. (the “Placement Agent”), we issued to the Placement Agent and its designees an aggregate of 2,283,445 shares of common stock and warrants to purchase up to an aggregate of 2,666,900 shares of common stock. The shares were issued as part consideration for the services of the Placement Agent, as our placement agent in the Private Placement. In addition, we paid the Placement Agent a total cash fee of $50,530. 
 
8
 
On January 12, 2005, we completed a second private placement offering whereby we sold an aggregate of $1,100,000 of units to a single investor. As with the Private Placement, each unit issued and sold in this subsequent private placement was sold at $25,000 per unit and is comprised of (i) 87,108 shares of our common stock, and (ii) a five-year warrant to purchase 87,108 shares of our common stock at an exercise price of $0.40 per share. Upon the closing of this second private placement offering we issued to the investor 3,832,753 shares of common stock and warrants to purchase up to an aggregate of 3,832,753 shares of common stock.

The aggregate sale from the four private placements was $4,353,000, which was netted against transaction costs of $329,673 for net proceeds of $4,023,327.

Between February 1, 2005 and July 31, 2005 we issued 400,635 common shares in exchange for services. In addition, we issued 156,794 common shares to our Chief Executive Officer as a bonus for year 2004. We also issued 409,401 common shares to our investors as penalty shares pursuant to the terms of the Private Placement.

As a result of these transactions the total number of issued and outstanding common shares as of July 31, 2005 was 37,656,886.

We are obligated to issue, but have not yet issued, 14,000 shares to a consultant for services rendered in the period.

Item 2. Plan of Operations

The Company has included in this Quarterly Report certain “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 concerning the Company’s business, operations and financial condition. “Forward-looking statements” consist of all non-historical information, and the analysis of historical information, including the references in this Quarterly Report to future revenue growth, collaborative agreements, future expense growth, future credit exposure, earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization, future profitability, anticipated cash resources, anticipated capital expenditures, capital requirements, and the Company’s plans for future periods. In addition, the words “could”, “expects”, “anticipates”, “objective”, “plan”, “may affect”, “may depend”, “believes”, “estimates”, “projects” and similar words and phrases are also intended to identify such forward-looking statements.

Actual results could differ materially from those projected in the Company’s forward-looking statements due to numerous known and unknown risks and uncertainties, including, among other things, unanticipated technological difficulties, the length and scope of our clinical trials, costs related to intellectual property related expense, cost of manufacturing and higher consulting costs, product demand, changes in domestic and foreign economic, market and regulatory conditions, the inherent uncertainty of financial estimates and projections, the uncertainties involved in certain legal proceedings, instabilities arising from terrorist actions and responses thereto, and other considerations described as “Risk Factors” in other filings by the Company with the SEC. Such factors may also cause substantial volatility in the market price of the Company’s Common Stock. All such forward-looking statements are current only as of the date on which such statements were made. The Company does not undertake any obligation to publicly update any forward-looking statement to reflect events or circumstances after the date on which any such statement is made or to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events.

Plan of Operations
 
We were originally incorporated in the state of Colorado on June 5, 1987 under the name Great Expectations, Inc. We were administratively dissolved January 1, 1997 and reinstated June 18, 1998 under the name Great Expectations and Associates, Inc. In 1999, we became a reporting company under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. We were a publicly traded “shell” company without any business until November 12, 2004 when we acquired Advaxis through the issuance of 15,597,723 shares of our Common Stock (the “Share Exchange”), as a result of which Advaxis become our wholly-owned subsidiary and our sole operating company. For financial reporting purposes, we have treated the Share Exchange as a recapitalization, where Advaxis was the acquirer. As a result of the foregoing as well as the fact that the Share Exchange is treated as a recapitalization of Advaxis rather than as a business combination, the historical financial statements of Advaxis on November 12, 2004 became our historical financial statements after the Share Exchange.
 
We are a biotechnology company which utilizes multiple mechanisms of immunity with the intent to develop cancer vaccines that are more effective and safer than existing vaccines. We believe that by using our licensed Listeria System to engineer a live attenuated Listeria monocytogenes bacteria to secrete a protein sequence containing a tumor-specific antigen, we will force the body’s immune system to process and recognize the antigen as if it were foreign, creating the immune response needed to attack the cancer.
 
We have no customers. We are in the development stage and focus our initial development efforts on six lead compounds and anticipate commencing a Phase I clinical study of Lovaxin C, a potential cervical and neck cancer vaccine, in the third quarter of 2005.
 
Our revenues, which primarily comprise of grants received from the National Institute of Health (“NIH”) amounted to $440,851 for the nine months ended July 31, 2005.
 
Research and development expenses, which principally comprise manufacturing of our cancer vaccine, laboratory supplies, wages, consulting and toxicology studies and are recognized expenses as incurred, amounted to $965,783 for the nine months ended July 31, 2005. We recognize research and development expenses as incurred. During the year ending October 31, 2005 and beyond, we anticipate that our research and development expenses will increase as a result of our expanded development and commercialization efforts related to toxicology studies, clinical trials, product development, and development of strategic and other relationships that will be required ultimately for the licensing, manufacture and distribution of our product candidates.
 
We sold for aggregate gross proceeds of approximately $4,353,000 in a private placement effected in four tranches on November 12, 2004, December 8, 2004, January 4, 2005 and January 10, 2005 an aggregate of 15,167,248 shares of our common stock and five year warrants to purchase an aggregate of 15,167,248 shares of our common stock exercisable at a price of $.40 per share. The sales were exempt from registration under the Securities Act of 1933 pursuant to Registration D under the Act. In addition we issued to the Placement Agent and its designees 2,283,445 shares of Common Stock and five year warrants to purchase an aggregate of 2,283,445 shares of Common Stock.
 
At July 31, 2005, our cash was $2,517,256, and our working capital was $1,925,366.
 
We intend to use the proceeds of the private placement during the next 12 months to conduct a Phase I clinical trial in cervical cancer using Lovaxin C, one of our lead product candidates in development using our Listeria System, expand our research and development team, further the development of the product candidates and expand our manufacturing capabilities and strategic activities.
 
10
 
During the next 12 to 24 months, we anticipate that our strategic focus will be to achieve several objectives. Our foremost objectives are as follows:
 
 
·
Initiate and complete phase I clinical study of Lovaxin C;
 
 
·
Continue pre-clinical development of our products;
 
 
·
Continue research to expand our technology platform.
 
We have purchased laboratory and office equipment totaling $75,586 and expect to purchase some additional equipment. We hired two fulltime employees and expect to hire 1-3 additional employees, primarily in the research and development areas.
 
Our longer-term funds requirements including the commercialization of our existing or future product candidates will require us to seek additional capital through (i) the sale of our equity or debt securities, (ii) financial arrangements with corporate and other partners, and (iii) increased license fees and milestone payments and research collaboration fees in the event we enter into research collaborations arrangements with third parties. Depending upon market conditions, we may not be successful in raising sufficient additional capital for our long-term requirements. In such event, our business, prospects, financial condition and results of operations could be materially adversely affected.
 
Off-balance sheet arrangements.
 
We are party to a license agreement, dated June 17, 2002, as amended, between Advaxis and The Trustees of the University of Pennsylvania, pursuant to which Advaxis has agreed to pay $482,000 in licensing fees in annual payments on December 15, 2005, 2006 and 2007, respectively or upon certain financing milestones, and in addition $525,000 over a four-year period as a royalty after the first commercial sale of our products covered by the license. Advaxis is also obligated to pay annual license maintenance fees under this agreement ranging from $25,000 to $125,000 per year after the first commercial sale of a product under the license.

Item 3. Controls and Procedures.

As of the end of the period covered by this report, based on an evaluation of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934), the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officers of the Company have concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures are effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Company in its Exchange Act reports is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the applicable time periods specified by the SEC’s rules and forms.

There were no significant changes in the Company’s internal controls or in any other factors that could significantly affect those controls subsequent to the date of the most recent evaluation of the Company’s internal controls by the Company, including any corrective actions with regard to any significant deficiencies or material weaknesses.

The offer and sale were exempt from registration and the Securities Act of 1933, as amended by virtue of the provisions of Section 4(2) and Regulation D thereunder.

Between February 1, 2005 and July 31, 2005 we issued 400,635 common shares in exchange for services. In addition, we issued 156,794 common shares to our Chief Executive Officer as a bonus for year 2004.
