Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements

As used herein, unless we otherwise specify, the terms the “Company,” "we," "us," and "our" means PacificHealth Laboratories, Inc.

This Report contains forward-looking statements concerning our financial condition, results of operations and business, including, without limitation, statements pertaining to:

 
·
The development, testing, and commercialization of new products and the expansion of markets for our current products;
 
·
The receipt of royalty payments from our agreements with business partners;
 
·
Implementing aspects of our business plan;
 
·
Financing goals and plans;
 
·
Our existing cash and whether and how long these funds will be sufficient to fund our operations; and
 
·
Our raising of additional capital through future equity financings.

These and other forward-looking statements are primarily in the section entitled "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations". Generally, you can identify these statements because they include phrases such as "anticipates," "believes," "expects," "future," "intends," "plans," and similar terms. These statements are only predictions. Although we do not make forward-looking statements unless we believe we have a reasonable basis for doing so, we cannot guarantee their accuracy, and actual results may differ materially from those we anticipated due to a number of uncertainties, many of which are unforeseen. You should not place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements, which apply only as of the date of this Report on Form 10-Q. Our actual results could differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements for many reasons, including those stated in this Report. We undertake no obligation to update publicly any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.  We cannot be sure when or if we will be permitted by regulatory agencies to undertake clinical trials or to commence any particular phase of clinical trials.  Because of this, statements regarding the expected timing of clinical trials cannot be regarded as actual predictions of when we will obtain regulatory approval for any “phase” of clinical trials.

We believe it is important to communicate our expectations to our investors. There may be events in the future, however, that we are unable to predict accurately or over which we have no control.  Cautionary language in this Report provides examples of risks, uncertainties and events that may cause our actual results to differ materially from the expectations we describe in our forward-looking statements.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE THREE AND SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2011 AND 2010
(UNAUDITED)

1. Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and with the rules and regulations of the SEC. Accordingly they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Operating results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2011. The unaudited financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and footnotes thereto included in the Company's annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2010.

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make certain 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 amount of revenue and expenses during the reporting period.  Actual results may differ from these estimates. The significant estimates and assumptions made by the Company are in the area of revenue recognition, as it relates to customer returns, inventory obsolescence, allowance for doubtful accounts, valuation allowances for deferred tax assets, and valuation of share-based payments issued under Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 718, “Compensation - Stock Compensation”.

2. Revenue Recognition

Sales are recognized when all of the following criteria are met:  (1) persuasive evidence that an arrangement exists; (2) delivery has occurred or services have been rendered; (3) the seller’s price to the buyer is fixed and determinable; and, (4) collectability is reasonably assured.  Sales are recorded net of incentives paid and discounts offered to customers.

The Company has a sales agreement with GNC, a significant customer of the Company, whereby unsold product is subject to return provisions.  In determining revenue recognition for products shipped to this customer, the Company follows the guidance in ASC 605,”Revenue Recognition” (“ASC 605”). Certain of the products shipped are under a “pay on scan” model and revenue is deferred by the Company until such time as the customer sells through such products to the end consumer.  The amount of deferred revenue relating to pay on scan products reflected in the accompanying balance sheets as of June 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010 amounted to $75,286 and $60,836, respectively.

3. Other Short-Term Investments

Excess cash is invested in auction rate securities with long-term maturities, the interest rates of which are reset periodically (typically between 7 and 35 days) through a competitive bidding process often referred to as a "Dutch auction".

Accordingly, the Company has classified such investments as other short-term investments. During the six months ended June 30, 2011, the Company redeemed $75,000 of these investments.

The Company measures fair value utilizing a hierarchy that prioritizes into three levels the components of valuation techniques that are used to measure fair value.  The fair value hierarchy gives the highest priority to quoted market prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1); lower priority to inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for assets or liabilities, either directly or indirectly (Level 2); and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3).

The Company has measured these investments as Level 2 inputs.

8. Income Taxes

The Company has approximately $17,095,000 in Federal and $3,730,000 in state net operating loss carryovers available as of June 30, 2011 that can be used to offset future taxable income in calendar years 2011 through 2030. The net operating loss carryovers begin to expire in the year 2016 through the year 2030. As of June 30, 2011, the Company has fully reserved for these net operating loss carryovers.

ASC 740, “Income Taxes”, clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in an enterprise’s financial statements. It prescribes a threshold and measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. ASC 740 also provides guidance on derecognition, measurement, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosure, and transition.

 
10

 

The Company has recorded a liability related to uncertain tax positions in the amount of approximately $8,000 and $23,000, respectively, at June 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010 relating to certain states in which the Company is required to file state tax returns as they have effectively established nexus in these states. These amounts have been recorded as a component of accounts payable and accrued expenses on the balance sheet.

The Company’s 2008, 2009 and 2010 Federal and state income tax returns are open for examination.

11. CEO Separation Agreement

The Company entered into a Separation and Release Agreement with a former CEO on January 27, 2010.  Under the terms of the agreement, the former CEO agreed to provide consulting services for a period of 90 days following the date of the agreement for which he was entitled to $5,673 per week. During the one-year period commencing on January 11, 2010, the former CEO was entitled to the sum of $295,000, less the sum of consulting fees paid during such period and less any income, wages and/or salary received by him during such period in respect of full-time or substantially full-time employment.  The Company also agreed to pay the former CEO $50,000 for relocation costs under certain circumstances, the cost of life insurance premiums during the period in which he provides consulting services, and the cost of health insurance coverage for a period of six months. In the three months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, the Company recognized $0 and $103,556, respectively, of expense under this Agreement. In the six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, the Company recognized $15,364 and $173,118, respectively, of expense under this Agreement.

12. CEO Employment Agreement

On April 12, 2011, the Company entered into an employment agreement with its President and Chief Executive Officer, Frederick Duffner.  Prior to this agreement, Mr. Duffner, who is also a member of the Company’s Board of Directors, had been serving in such capacities without an employment agreement.  The employment agreement provides for a term expiring December 31, 2012, subject to automatic annual renewals unless either party elects not to renew by 30-day prior notice to the other. Mr. Duffner may terminate his employment at any time with 30 days prior written notice.

 
11

 
 
The Company will pay Mr. Duffner a base salary of $250,000 per year, subject to potential increases, and a potential bonus that cannot exceed his base salary.  Mr. Duffner’s eligibility for the bonus, and the amount of the bonus, will be based upon the Company and/or Mr. Duffner achieving certain milestones to be established by the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors in consultation with Mr. Duffner.

If the Company terminates Mr. Duffner’s employment other than for cause, or he terminates for good reason, as both terms are defined in the agreement, the Company will pay him nine (9) months of his base salary as severance.  Upon termination of Mr. Duffner’s employment, the Company may impose a restrictive covenant on him for up to twelve (12) months, provided that the Company must continue his severance payments to continue the covenant beyond nine (9) months.

Item 2.
MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

In this Report on Form 10-Q, the terms the “Company,” “we”, “us,” and “our” refer to PacificHealth Laboratories, Inc.

(a)
Introduction

PacificHealth Laboratories is a leading nutrition company that was incorporated in the State of Delaware in April 1995.  We focus on the development, marketing and selling of patented premium nutrition tools that enable our consumers to enhance their health and improve their performance. Our principal area of focus is exercise performance and recovery, including optimal weight management. Our products can be marketed without prior Food and Drug Administration (“FDA”) approval under current regulatory guidelines.

We are a sales and marketing driven company that derives value from our own brands that are based on the latest nutrition technology.  We will continue to expand on the benefits of our core endurance nutrition products while exploring the latest science in order to introduce cutting edge new brands and products that allow our core endurance athletes to work out and compete more effectively.  We will also direct new research and development in the endurance nutrition category to drive product development and consumer communications across both existing and new brands.

Sports Performance

Our research into factors influencing exercise performance, muscle endurance, and recovery has led to the development and commercialization of a new generation of sports and recovery drinks.  The key to our technology is the specific ratio in which protein is combined with carbohydrates.  We have received two patents on this technology and over 18 studies have been published demonstrating that products based on this technology can extend endurance, reduce muscle damage, improve rehydration, and accelerate muscle recovery.  Our research in exercise performance has led to the introduction and commercialization of a number of products for the aerobic athlete including:

ENDUROX R4® Recovery Drink – Introduced in February 1999

ACCELERADETM Sports Drink – Introduced in May 2001

ACCEL GEL® Advanced Sports Gel – Introduced in February 2004

2ND SURGE® Ultra Energy Gel – Introduced in March 2011

ACCEL RECOVERTM Muscle Recovery Bar – Introduced in March 2011

ENDUROX® EXCEL® Natural Workout Supplement – Introduced in March 1997

ACCELERADE HYDROTM Sports Drink with less calories and sugar – Introduced in June 2008

In the first quarter of 2011, we launched two new products: 2ND SURGE and ACCEL RECOVER. 2ND SURGE is an energy gel that is the first all-natural product specifically formulated to delay the onset of both muscle and brain fatigue. The product’s proprietary formula contains rapidly acting carbohydrates, specific proteins, caffeine and selected antioxidants that are proven to increase the delivery of critical nutrients to brain and muscle cells, maintain metabolic energy needs, inhibit the release of fatigue signals in the brain, and reduce muscle damage, an important trigger for the release of fatigue signals. ACCEL RECOVER is the first bar nutritionally engineered for maximum muscle recovery with a breakthrough formula that incorporates a unique blend of three carbohydrates to rapidly and completely replenish depleted muscle glycogen stores, a proprietary combination of three proteins enriched with glutamine, arginine and leucine, the amino acids that drive the repair and rebuilding of muscle protein and the rapid transport of nutrients to muscles, medium-chain triglycerides that rapidly convert into energy rather than fat and antioxidants to protect muscles from free-radical damage and to regenerate the body’s natural antioxidant pathways.

 
13

 

Weight Regulation

Satiety peptides have been shown to suppress appetite and reduce food intake.  Our research has specifically focused on developing nutritional formulations that can stimulate cholecystokin (CCK), one of the body’s primary satiety peptides. CCK is normally released after a meal, particularly one high in fat and protein.  CCK is often called the “feel full” protein because when it is released it gives a feeling of fullness and signals the brain to terminate the meal.  The objective of our research is to develop a nutritional composition that stimulates and extends the duration of action of CCK in a calorically efficient way, i.e. to cause a release of CCK with 45-50 calories of specific nutrients rather than 1,000 calories. We have seven patents on our appetite suppressant technology.

In the first quarter of 2009, we launched FORZE GPS™ in our sports specialty channel. FORZE GPS was the first appetite management nutrition tool designed specifically for athletes. We were not successful in 2009 in achieving adequate sales for this product line. We therefore decided not to continue to aggressively market this product in 2010 as we did in 2009 but we will continue to sell this product line on a limited basis in 2011.

 (b) Results of Operations – Three and Six Months Ended June 30, 2011 and 2010

Revenues for the three-month period ended June 30, 2011 decreased by $309,080, or approximately 12%, to $2,245,226 from $2,554,306 for the same period in 2010. Revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2011 decreased by $227,734, or approximately 5%, to $3,976,837 from $4,204,571 for the same period in 2010. The decrease in revenues was due primarily to a change in the promotional strategy in one of our major customers this year as well as the loss of sales from FORZE that we no longer market, offset in part by the sales of our two new products, 2ND SURGE and ACCEL RECOVER. We anticipate that this major customer will return to more normalized sales levels in the third quarter.

For the three months ended June 30, 2011, gross profit margin on product sales was 44.3% compared to 47.7% for the three months ended June 30, 2010. For the six months ended June 30, 2011, gross profit margin on product sales was 44.4% compared to 46.6% for the six months ended June 30, 2010. The three and six month periods ended June 30, 2010 includes the effects of sales of $70,826 and $177,692, respectively, with no associated cost of goods sold (other than freight out) as this inventory was previously reserved in the fourth quarter of 2009. We have also been challenged this year with increased cost of goods as a result of higher protein and packaging costs.

Sales and marketing (“S & M”) expenses increased $29,350, or approximately 8%, to $378,612 for the three-month period ended June 30, 2011 from $349,262 for the three-month period ended June 30, 2010. S & M expenses increased as a percentage of product sales to approximately 17% in the three-month period ended June 30, 2011 compared to approximately 14% in the three-month period ended June 30, 2010. This increase is primarily due to increased advertising expenses as we started an aggressive advertising campaign for 2011 in the second quarter of 2011 offset by a decrease in commission expense as we discontinued our commissioned sales representation organization in the third quarter of 2010. S & M expenses decreased $15,304, or approximately 3%, to $569,043 for the six months ended June 30, 2011 from $584,347 for the six months ended June 30, 2010. S & M expenses remained constant at approximately 14% of product sales for both six month periods ended June 30, 2011 and 2010.

General and administrative (“G & A”) expenses decreased $222,953, or approximately 30%, to $511,490 for the three-month period ended June 30, 2011 from $734,443 for the three-month period ended June 30, 2010. G & A expenses decreased $460,119, or approximately 30%, to $1,048,474 for the six months ended June 30, 2011 from $1,508,593 for the six months ended June 30, 2010. Included in G & A in the three month periods ended June 30, 2011 and 2010 is approximately $0 and $104,000, respectively, paid to the former CEO in the form of a non-compete clause pursuant to his Separation Agreement. Included in G & A in the three month periods ended June 30, 2011 and 2010 is approximately $15,000 and $173,000, respectively, paid to the former CEO in the form of a non-compete clause pursuant to his Separation Agreement. These payments ended under the terms of the Separation Agreement on January 27, 2011.  The decreases in G & A in both the three months and six months ended June 30, 2011 as compared to the same periods in 2010 is due primarily to less salaries and related personnel expenses due to decreases in the number of employees, less legal and accounting expenses due to negotiated fee arrangements, less directors fees due to the 2011 Board Compensation Policy whereby directors will not receive any compensation for 2011, and less depreciation expense due to less purchases of equipment over the last two years.

 
14

 

Research and development (”R & D”) expenses were $9,978 and $24,795, respectively, for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2011 compared to $-0- for the same periods in 2010. We will continue to incur R & D expenses for the remainder of 2011 as we invest in science and new products based on this science.

We recorded net income of $91,769, or $0.00 per share (basic and diluted), for the quarter ended June 30, 2011 compared to net income of $136,725, or $0.01 per share (basic and diluted), for the quarter ended June 30, 2010. The lower net income in the quarter ended June 30, 2011 as compared to the net income in the same period in 2010 is due primarily to lower revenues in the quarter ended June 30, 2011 than in the quarter ended June 30, 2010, which was offset by reduced G & A expenses. We recorded net income of $118,999, or $0.01 per share (basic and diluted), for the six months ended June 30, 2011 compared to a net loss of ($132,505), or ($0.01) per share (basic and diluted), for the six months ended June 30, 2010. The net income for the six months ended June 30, 2011 as compared to the net loss in the same period in 2010 is due primarily to lower G & A expenses in the six months ended June 30, 2011 as compared to the same period in 2010 offset by a lower gross margin in the six months ended June 30, 2011 as compared to the same period in 2010.

(c) Liquidity and Capital Resources
 
At June 30, 2011, our current assets exceeded our current liabilities by approximately $1,760,000 with a ratio of current assets to current liabilities of approximately 2.0 to 1. At June 30, 2011, cash on hand was $1,286,515, an increase of $1,152,350 from December 31, 2010, primarily as the result of two private placements of our Common Stock for $1,095,000 as well as an increase in accounts receivable (net of reserves) of $565,175, an increase in inventory of $463,821 (net of reserves), an increase in prepaid expenses of $108,742, sales of other short-term investments of $75,000, repayments of a line of credit of $37,500, issuances of notes payable of $65,427, repayments of notes payable of $27,336, an increase in accounts payable and accrued expenses of $932,136, and an increase in deferred revenue of $14,450 from December 31, 2010. Accounts receivable increased as 2nd quarter 2011 sales were significantly higher than 4th quarter 2010 sales. Inventories increased due to anticipated higher sales in the 3rd quarter of 2011 compared to the 1st quarter of 2011. Accounts payable and accrued expenses increased due to better payment terms negotiated with our main inventory suppliers.

Net cash used in operating activities for the six months ended June 30, 2011 was $15,700 compared to net cash provided by operating activities for the same period in 2010 of $194,470. The net cash used in operating activities for the six months ended June 30, 2011 as compared to the net cash provided by operating activities in the same period in 2010 is due to a higher increase in accounts receivable in 2011, an increase in inventories in 2011 as opposed to a decrease in inventories in 2010 offset by a significantly higher increase in accounts payable and accrued expenses in 2011, a slight increase in deferred revenues in 2011 as compared to a large decrease in 2010, and the receipt of the net proceeds from a tax loss sale in 2010. Accounts receivable increased more in 2011 compared to the increase in 2010 primarily due to the starting accounts receivable balance being greater in 2010. Average days’ sales outstanding are approximately 32 days as of June 30, 2011 compared to approximately 34 days at June 30, 2010. Inventories increased in 2011 compared to a decrease in inventories in 2010 due to new products being introduced in 2011 as well as in anticipation of increased sales. Inventories are expected to decrease significantly over the last half of 2011. Accounts payable and accrued expenses increased significantly in 2011 due to better payment terms negotiated with our main inventory suppliers. Historically, we have funded inventory purchases through trade credit and we expect that to continue.

As of June 30, 2011, we had $75,000 invested in auction rate securities that are presented as short-term investments on the balance sheet. During the first six months of 2011, we were able to redeem $75,000 of these investments. We have obtained a revolving line of credit with a financial institution with a maturity of May 2012 that will accept these securities as collateral. The maximum amount that we may borrow is limited to 50% of the value of these auction rate securities. As of December 31, 2010, the balance of this line of credit was $75,000. In January 2011 we paid down $12,500 on this line from the proceeds of redeemed securities, in April 2011 we paid down another $12,500 on this line from the proceeds of redeemed securities, and in May 2011 we paid down another $12,500 on this line from the proceeds of redeemed securities.

We have no material commitments for capital expenditures.

(d)          Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

There are no off-balance sheet arrangements between us and any other entity that have, or are reasonably likely to have, a current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures, or capital resources that are material to investors.
