Overview
 
MISONIX, INC. ("Misonix" or the "Company") is a New York corporation which, through its predecessors, was first organized in 1959. The Company designs, manufactures, develops and markets minimally invasive ultrasonic medical device products. These products include the BoneScalpelTM cutting system which is used among other things for surgical procedures of the spine, the SonaStar® Surgical Aspirator which is used to emulsify and remove soft and hard tumors, the SonicOne® Wound Cleansing and Debridement System (“SonicOne”) that offers tissue specific debridement and cleansing of wounds for effective removal of devitalized tissue and fibrin deposits while sparing viable cells, and the AutoSonix ultrasound cutting and coagulating system which is marketed by Misonix through an agreement with Covidien Ltd. Misonix also markets its Lysonix ultrasound assisted liposuction device with Mentor Corporation, a subsidiary of Johnson & Johnson (“Mentor”). The Company also develops and markets ductless fume enclosures for filtration of gaseous contaminates in the laboratory and forensic markets.
 
The Company's 100% owned subsidiary, Hearing Innovations, Inc. ("Hearing Innovations"), is a development company with patented HiSonic ultrasonic technology for the treatment of profound deafness and tinnitus.
 
In fiscal 2011, approximately 30% of the Company's net sales were to foreign markets. These sales had credit risks as some large distributor sales were not secured by letters of credit, but given terms on open account. Most open account sales require a 50% down payment which generally covers the cost of the equipment. Foreign country sales on open credit terms do not to exceed 60 days. Distributors that are not given credit terms either pay in advance or have letters of credit securing the sales. All foreign sales are remitted to Misonix in U.S. currency.
 
Discontinued Operations
 
On August 4, 2009, the Company sold its Labcaire Systems, Ltd. ("Labcaire") subsidiary to PuriCore International Limited ("PuriCore Limited") for a total purchase price of up to $5.6 million. The Company received $3.6 million at closing and a promissory note in the principal amount of $1 million, payable in equal installments of $250,000 on the next four anniversaries of the closing. In August 2011, the Company received the first installment. The note receivable was discounted over the four years using a 4% imputed interest rate. This rate is consistent with published discounts. The discounted value of the note ($900,000) was used to determine gain or loss on the sale and the remaining outstanding balance is included in other assets in the consolidated balance sheet, with the current portion reflected as a component of notes receivable. The Company will also receive a commission paid on sales for the period commencing on the date of closing and ending on December 31, 2013 of 8% of the pass through Automated Endoscope Reprocessing ("AER") and Drying Cabinet products, and 5% of license fees from any chemical licenses marketed by Labcaire directly associated with sale of AERs, specifically for the disinfection of the endoscope. The aggregate commission payable to the Company is subject to a maximum payment of $1,000,000. The aggregate commission will not be recognized in determining the current gain or loss on the sale of Labcaire until the commission is paid. As of June 30, 2011, there were no commissions paid. For the year ended June 30, 2010, the Company recorded a pre-tax loss on the sale of Labcaire of $295,879. Results of Labcaire operations have been reported as a discontinued operation for all periods presented.
 
As previously disclosed in a Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on January 28, 2011, the Company was a party to a suit filed by PuriCore International Limited ("PuriCore Limited") in the High Court of Justice, Queens Bench Division, Commercial Court, Royal Courts of Justice, London, England (Claim No. 2011-42) (the "Lawsuit"). In the Lawsuit, PuriCore Limited claimed damages from the Company in respect of breach of warranties contained in the Stock Purchase Agreement, dated August 4, 2009 (the "SPA"), pursuant to which the Company sold Labcaire to PuriCore Limited. PuriCore Limited claimed damages of £2,167,000 or approximately $3,600,000, plus interest and its legal costs. The Company denied the allegations contained in the Lawsuit.
 
On July 19, 2011, PuriCore Limited and the Company reached an agreement to settle the Lawsuit (the "Settlement"). The Settlement provides that the Company (i) forgive in full PuriCore Limited and PuriCore plc's obligation under the SPA to pay up to $1,000,000 of previously unrecorded, contingent Commissions (as defined in the SPA); (ii) pay PuriCore, Inc. ("PuriCore"), an affiliate of PuriCore Limited, $650,000 towards PuriCore Limited's legal costs and (iii) enter into a Product License and Distribution Agreement, dated as of July 19, 2011, with PuriCore (the "Distribution Agreement").
 
Pursuant to the Distribution Agreement, the Company has been granted the right to distribute PuriCore's Vashe solution products in the United States, on a private label basis, as an irrigating solution for the treatment of human wound care mainly in conjunction with therapeutic ultrasonic procedures (the "Field"). PuriCore has agreed, subject to modification, not to sell the products that are the subject of the Distribution Agreement (the "Licensed Products") to any other therapeutic ultrasound company for distribution in the Field in the United States ("Exclusivity"). The Company has agreed not to sell or distribute in the United States in the Field any irrigating solution that has anti-microbial properties other than the Licensed Products so long as the Company has Exclusivity.

The Distribution Agreement is for a three (3) year term with automatic renewals for successive two (2) year periods; provided that the Company and PuriCore have agreed upon sales volume targets for each renewal period (such volume targets not to increase by more than ten (10%) percent year over year unless otherwise agreed) and provided that the cost terms shall be no less favorable than the twelve (12) months leading up to the start of such renewal period. In no event will the Distribution Agreement survive beyond the expiration or invalidation of all of PuriCore's patents.
 
During the initial three (3) year term of the Distribution Agreement, the Company is obligated to either purchase or pay a minimum of $2,000,000 in gross margin value to PuriCore for the Licensed Products (the "Minimum Payment"). The Minimum Payment is subject to downward adjustment and elimination in the event that (i) PuriCore chooses to eliminate Exclusivity, (ii) the Company's right to manufacture the Licensed Products under certain conditions has been triggered but the Company is unable to manufacture the Licensed Products or to have the Licensed Products manufactured for it by third parties or (iii) the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (“FDA”) has made a final determination that prohibits the sale of the Licensed Products for use in the Field.
 
The Company has the right to manufacture the Licensed Products if PuriCore is unable to meet certain performance standards and will pay PuriCore a royalty after the $2,000,000 in gross margin value requirement has been satisfied (it is anticipated that Misonix will receive more than $4 million in gross margin) if the Company is then manufacturing the Licensed Products.
 
During a renewal period, PuriCore may terminate the Distribution Agreement if (i) the Company fails to purchase the agreed upon volume target for such renewal period and does not cure such failure in accordance with the Distribution Agreement or (ii) upon twelve (12) months notice.
 
On October 2, 2009, Acoustic Marketing Research, Inc. d/b/a Sonora Medical Systems ("Sonora") sold substantially all of its assets to Medical Imaging Holdings, Inc. ("Medical Imaging") for a cash payment of $8,000,000 (subject to a future adjustment based on net working capital, at the closing). On April 6, 2010, the Company paid $257,029 to Medical Imaging for the net difference of adjustments of working capital and the effect of income taxes. These amounts were reflected in discontinued operations in the June 30, 2010 audited financial statements. The Company also purchased at the closing of such transaction, utilizing $1,200,000 of the proceeds, the remaining outstanding 5% of Sonora's shares. Sonora is engaged in the business of (i) selling, repairing and servicing new and used diagnostic ultrasound systems and consumable accessories used in conjunction therewith, (ii) selling, repairing, servicing and testing diagnostic ultrasound transducers, (iii) developing and selling equipment for testing ultrasound transducers, (iv) selling equipment used for cleaning and disinfecting ultrasound transducers including, but not limited to, transesophogeal echocardiography probes, (v) selling equipment used for testing endoscopic probes, (vi) repairing and servicing MRI systems and parts and subsystems used therein, and (vii) performing training for the service and maintenance of diagnostic ultrasound and MRI systems, in each instance throughout the world. The net assets and results of Sonora operations have been reported as a discontinued operation for all periods presented.
 
On May 28, 2010, Misonix announced the sale to USHIFU, LLC ("USHIFU") of all of its rights to the High Intensity Focused Ultrasound ("HIFU") technology together with other HIFU-related assets. In consideration for the sale, Misonix will receive up to approximately $5.8 million, paid out of an earn-out of 7% of gross revenues received by USHIFU related to the businesses being sold, up to the time the Company has received the first $3 million, and thereafter 5% of gross revenues up to the $5.8 million. Commencing 90 days after each December 31st and, beginning December 31, 2011, the payments will be the greater of (a) $250,000 or (b) 7% of gross revenues received up to the time the Company has received the first $3 million, and thereafter 5% of gross revenues up to the $5.8 million. Misonix will also be paid for 3 units in inventory of new Sonablate® 500 machines which totaled $465,000. The obligation to pay for such machines was secured by a note due December 31, 2010. At December 31, 2010, the note was fully paid, and cash received is shown in the discontinued operations section of the Company's cash flow statements. At the closing of such transaction, USHIFU paid Misonix for inventory associated with manufacturing the Sonablate® 500 and reimbursed Misonix for certain monies expended in connection with the HIFU Registry. The net assets and results of HIFU operations have been reported as a discontinued operation for all periods presented.
    
Misonix retained all of its rights associated with the HIFU-related intellectual property and development assets purchased from ProRhythm, Inc. This intellectual property involves the development of new transducers and lenses to be used in the treatment of tissue using HIFU. This technology may be applied on a worldwide basis to a variety of organs not limited to kidney, liver, or breast tissue treatment.
 
Medical Devices
 
On June 1, 2011, Misonix entered a new five-year exclusive U.S. distribution agreement with Anika Therapeutics S.r.l., a wholly owned subsidiary of Anika Therapeutics, Inc. (NASDAQ: ANIK), a leader in products for tissue protection, healing, and repair. Misonix will sell and distribute Anika's Hyalomatrix® product, a skin substitute based on hyaluronic acid technology. Hyalomatrix is indicated for treatment of a wide range of acute and chronic wounds and will be a companion product for Misonix's SonicOne.
 
Anika will manufacture and supply finished product to Misonix, while Misonix will be responsible for all aspects of commercialization in the United States. A recognized leader in advanced ultrasonic wound management, Misonix has U.S. sales and marketing organizations for both the surgery and clinic settings, where acute and chronic wounds are treated. Both sales organizations will market the Hyalomatrix product offering.

On July 19, 2011, Misonix and PuriCore, Inc., a U.S. subsidiary of PuriCore, entered into a Product License and Distribution Agreement (the "Distribution Agreement") whereby Misonix will distribute, on a limited exclusive basis with respect to other therapeutic ultrasound companies in the United States, a private label version of PuriCore's Vashe® wound therapy product, which is a solution intended for cleansing, irrigating, moistening, and debriding acute and chronic dermal lesions. Use of the new product will be emphasized in conjunction with clinical procedures performed with Misonix ultrasonic systems and gives surgeons and clinicians an expanding line of products for treating wounds. The Distribution Agreement is for three years with a two year extension contingent on meeting certain goals. As part of this Distribution Agreement, Misonix has the obligation over a three year period to either purchase or pay a minimum of $2 million in gross margin value to PuriCore. When PuriCore receives $2 million in gross margin purchases under the Distribution Agreement, it is anticipated that Misonix will have received more than $4 million in gross margin.
 
In October 1996, the Company entered into a twenty-year license agreement (the "USS License") with United States Surgical, now a unit of Covidien Ltd. ("USS"). The USS License covers the further development of the Company's medical technology relating to ultrasonic cutting, which uses high frequency sound waves to coagulate and divide tissue for both open and laparoscopic surgery. The USS License gives USS exclusive worldwide marketing and sales rights for this technology and device. Total sales of this device were approximately $3,260,000 and $3,172,000 for the fiscal years ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively. Total royalties from sales of this device were approximately $550,000 and $576,000 for the fiscal years ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively.
  
The Company is currently negotiating a new distribution agreement with Mentor for the sale, marketing and distribution of the Lysonix soft tissue aspirator used for cosmetic surgery. Total sales of this device were approximately $900,000 and $919,000 for the fiscal years ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively.
 
Laboratory and Scientific Products
 
The Company's other revenue producing activities consist of the manufacture and sale of Aura™ ductless fume hood products. The Aura ductless fume hood products offer 40 years of experience in providing safe work environments to medical, pharmaceutical, biotech, semiconductor, law enforcement, federal and local government laboratories. We manufacture a complete line of ductless fume enclosures to control and eliminate hazardous vapors, noxious odors and particulates in the laboratory. All fume enclosure products utilize either activated carbon or HEPA filters to capture contaminants and are a cost effective alternative to standard laboratory fume hoods that require expensive ductwork to vent contaminants to the outside. Misonix also offers laminar airflow stations and PCR enclosures. Misonix Ductless Fume Hoods meet or exceed applicable OSHA, ANSI, NFPA, SEFA and ASHRAE standards for ductless fume hoods. School Demonstration Ductless Fume Hoods have proven to be a valuable addition to hundreds of high school science laboratories. Multiple application filters allow for the use of a variety of chemicals and a clear back panel enables students to view demonstrations from all sides.
 
The technology used in the Aura ductless fume enclosures has also been adapted for specific uses in crime laboratories. The Forensic Evidence Cabinet protects wet evidence from contamination while it is drying and simultaneously protects law enforcement personnel from evidence that can be noxious and hazardous. The Cyanoacrylate (liquid glue) Fuming Chamber is used by fingerprinting experts to develop fingerprints on non-porous surfaces while providing protection from hazardous cyanoacrylate fumes.
 
Market and Customers

Item 1A. Risk Factors.
 
In addition to the other information contained in this Annual Report on Form 10-K and the exhibits hereto, the following risk factors should be considered carefully in evaluating our business. Our business, financial condition or results of operations could be materially adversely affected by any of these risks. This section contains forward-looking statements. You should refer to the explanation of the qualifications and limitations on forward-looking statements set forth immediately prior to the beginning of Item 1 of this Annual Report on Form 10-K. Additional risks not presently known to us or that we currently deem immaterial may also adversely affect our business, financial condition or results of operations. The following list sets forth many, but not all, of the factors that could impact upon the Company’s ability to achieve results discussed in any forward leading statement. Investors should understand that it is not possible to predict or identify all such factors and should not consider this list to be a complete statement of all potential risks and uncertainties.
 
Risks Related to Our Business
 
We are subject to extensive medical device regulation which may impede or hinder the approval process for our products and, in some cases, may not ultimately result in approval or may result in the recall or seizure of previously approved products.
 
Our products, development activities and manufacturing processes are subject to extensive and rigorous regulation by the FDA pursuant to the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (the "FDC Act"), by comparable agencies in foreign countries, and by other regulatory agencies and governing bodies. Under the FDC Act, medical devices must receive FDA clearance or approval before they can be commercially marketed in the U.S. In addition, most major markets for medical devices outside the U.S. require clearance, approval or compliance with certain standards before a product can be commercially marketed. The process of obtaining marketing approval or clearance from the FDA for new products, or with respect to enhancements or modifications to existing products, could:
  
 
take a significant period of time;

 
 
require the expenditure of substantial resources;

 
involve rigorous pre-clinical and clinical testing;

 
require changes to the products; and

 
result in limitations on the indicated uses of the products.
 
 
10

 
  
Even after products have received marketing approval or clearance, product approvals and clearances by the FDA can be withdrawn due to failure to comply with regulatory standards or the occurrence of unforeseen problems following initial approval. There can be no assurance that we will receive the required clearances from the FDA for new products or modifications to existing products on a timely basis or that any FDA approval will not be subsequently withdrawn. Later discovery of previously unknown problems with a product or manufacturer could result in fines, delays or suspensions of regulatory clearances, seizures or recalls of products, operating restrictions and/or criminal prosecution. The failure to receive product approval clearance on a timely basis, suspensions of regulatory clearances, seizures or recalls of products or the withdrawal of product approval by the FDA could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition or results of operations.
 
We may not meet regulatory quality standards applicable to our manufacturing and quality processes, which could have an adverse effect on our business, financial condition or results of operations.
 
As a medical device manufacturer, we are required to register with the FDA and are subject to periodic inspection by the FDA for compliance with the FDA's Quality System Regulation requirements, which require manufacturers of medical devices to adhere to certain regulations, including testing, quality control and documentation procedures. In addition, the Federal Medical Device Reporting regulations require us to provide information to the FDA whenever there is evidence that reasonably suggests that a medical device may have caused or contributed to a death or serious injury or, if a malfunction were to occur, could cause or contribute to a death or serious injury. Compliance with applicable regulatory requirements is subject to continual review and is rigorously monitored through periodic inspections by the FDA. In the European Community, we are required to maintain certain ISO certifications in order to sell our products and must undergo periodic inspections by notified bodies to obtain and maintain these certifications.
 
Future intellectual property litigation could be costly and disruptive to us.
 
We operate in an industry that is susceptible to significant intellectual property litigation and, in recent years, it has been common for companies in the medical device field to aggressively challenge the patent rights of other companies in order to prevent the marketing of new devices. Intellectual property litigation is expensive, complex and lengthy and its outcome is difficult to predict. Future patent litigation may result in significant royalty or other payments or injunctions that can prevent the sale of products and may significantly divert the attention of our technical and management personnel. In the event that our right to market any of our products is successfully challenged, and if we fail to obtain a required license or are unable to design around a patent, our business, financial condition or results of operations could be materially adversely affected.
 
We may not be able to effectively protect our intellectual property rights.
 
Patents and other proprietary rights are and will be essential to our business, and our ability to compete effectively with other companies will be dependent upon the proprietary nature of our technologies. We also rely upon trade secrets, know-how, continuing technological innovations, strategic alliances and licensing opportunities to develop, maintain and strengthen our competitive position. We pursue a policy of generally obtaining patent protection in both the U.S. and abroad for patentable subject matter in our proprietary devices and also attempt to review third-party patents and patent applications to the extent publicly available to develop an effective patent strategy, avoid infringement of third-party patents, identify licensing opportunities and monitor the patent claims of others. We currently own numerous U.S. and foreign patents. We also are party to various license agreements pursuant to which patent rights have been obtained or granted in consideration for cash or royalty payments. No assurance can be made that any pending or future patent applications will result in issued patents, that any current or future patents issued to, or licensed by, us will not be challenged or circumvented by our competitors, or that our patents will not be found invalid.
 
In addition, we may have to take legal action in the future to protect our patents, trade secrets or know-how or to assert them against claimed infringement by others. Any legal action of that type could be costly and time consuming to us and no assurances can be made that any lawsuit will be successful.
 
The invalidation of key patents or proprietary rights that we own, or an unsuccessful outcome in lawsuits to protect our intellectual property, could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition or results of operations.
 
Future product liability claims and other litigation, including private securities litigation and shareholder derivative suits, may adversely affect our business, reputation and ability to attract and retain customers.
 
The design, manufacture and marketing of medical device products of the types that we produce entail an inherent risk of product liability claims. A number of factors could result in an unsafe condition or injury to, or death of, a patient with respect to these or other products that we manufacture or sell, including component failures, manufacturing flaws, design defects or inadequate disclosure of product-related risks or product-related information. These factors could result in product liability claims, a recall of one or more of our products or a safety alert relating to one or more of our products. Product liability claims may be brought by individuals or by groups seeking to represent a class.
 
Anyone or any company can bring an action against Misonix.
 
Our judicial system allows anyone to bring a claim against the Company and force the Company to defend itself even if the claim is baseless. The defense may or may not be covered by the Company’s insurance, the result of which could ultimately create a burden on the Company dependent upon the outcome.
 
11

 
We may not be successful in our strategic initiatives to become primarily a medical device company.
 
Our strategic initiatives intend to further expand our ability to offer customers effective, quality medical devices that satisfy their needs, as well as focus the Company on our medical device platform. If we are unsuccessful in our strategic initiatives, we may be unable to continue to grow our business significantly or may record asset impairment charges in the future.
 
Our future growth is dependent upon the development of new products, which requires significant research and development, clinical trials and regulatory approvals, all of which are very expensive and time-consuming and may not result in a commercially viable product.
 
In order to develop new products and improve current product offerings, we focus our research and development programs largely on the development of next-generation and novel technology offerings across multiple programs and opportunities.
 
As a part of the regulatory process of obtaining marketing clearance from the FDA for new products, we conduct and participate in numerous clinical trials with a variety of study designs, patient populations and trial endpoints. Unfavorable or inconsistent clinical data from existing or future clinical trials conducted by us, by our competitors or by third parties, or the market's perception of this clinical data, may adversely impact our ability to obtain product approvals from the FDA, our position in, and share of, the markets in which we participate and our business, financial condition, results of operations or future prospects.
 
New products may not be accepted in the market.
 
We are now, and will continue to be, developing new products and introducing them into the market. There can be no assurance that any new product will be accepted by the market. New products are sometimes introduced into the market in a prototype format and may need later revisions or design changes before they operate in a manner to be accepted in the market. As a result of the introduction of new products, there is some risk that revenue expectations may not be met and in some cases the product may not achieve market acceptance.
 
We face intense competition and may not be able to keep pace with the rapid technological changes in the medical device industry, which could have an adverse effect on our business, financial condition or results of operations.
 
The medical device product market is highly competitive. We encounter significant competition across our product lines and in each market in which our products are sold from various medical device companies, some of which have greater financial and marketing resources than we do.
 
Additionally, the medical device product market is characterized by extensive research and development and rapid technological change. Developments by other companies of new or improved products, processes or technology may make our products or proposed products obsolete or less competitive and may negatively impact our revenues. We are required to devote continued efforts and financial resources to develop or acquire scientifically advanced technologies and products, apply our technologies cost-effectively across product lines and markets, attract and retain skilled development personnel, obtain patent and other protection for our technology and products, obtain required regulatory and reimbursement approvals and successfully manufacture and market our products. Failure to develop new products or enhance existing products could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition or results of operations.
 
Consolidation in the healthcare industry could lead to demands for price concessions or the exclusion of some suppliers from certain of our significant market segments, which could have an adverse effect on our business, financial condition or results of operations.
 
The cost of healthcare has risen significantly over the past decade and numerous initiatives and reforms initiated by legislators, regulators and third-party payers to curb these costs have resulted in a consolidation trend in the healthcare industry, including hospitals. This in turn has resulted in greater pricing pressures and the exclusion of certain suppliers from important market segments as group purchasing organizations, independent delivery networks and large single accounts continue to consolidate purchasing decisions for some of our hospital customers. We expect that market demand, government regulation, third-party reimbursement policies and societal pressures will continue to change the worldwide healthcare industry, resulting in further business consolidations and alliances among our customers and competitors, which may reduce competition, exert further downward pressure on the prices of our products and may adversely impact our business, financial condition or results of operations.
  
 
12

 
We may experience disruption in supply due to our dependence on our suppliers to continue to ship product requirements and our inability to obtain suppliers of certain components for our products.
 
Our suppliers may encounter problems during manufacturing due to a variety of reasons, including failure to follow specific protocols and procedures, failure to comply with applicable regulations, equipment malfunctions, labor shortages or environmental factors. In addition, we purchase both raw materials used in our products and finished goods from various suppliers and may have to rely on a single source supplier for certain components of our products where there are no alternatives are available. Although we anticipate that we have adequate sources of supply and/or inventory of these components to handle our production needs for the foreseeable future, if we are unable to secure on a timely basis sufficient quantities of the materials we depend on to manufacture our products, if we encounter delays or contractual or other difficulties in our relationships with these suppliers, or if we cannot find suppliers at an acceptable cost, then the manufacture of our products may be disrupted, which could increase our costs and have a material adverse effect on our business.
 
If we fail to manage any expansion or acquisition, our business could be impaired.
 
We may in the future acquire one or more technologies, products or companies that complement our business. We may not be able to effectively integrate these into our business and any such acquisition could bring additional risks, exposures and challenges to our company. In addition, acquisitions may dilute our earnings per share, disrupt our ongoing business, distract our management and employees, increase our expenses, subject us to liabilities and increase our risk of litigation, all of which could harm our business. If we use cash to acquire technologies, products, or companies, such use may divert resources otherwise available for other purposes. If we use our common stock to acquire technologies, products, or companies, our shareholders may experience substantial dilution. If we fail to manage any expansions or acquisition, our business could be impaired.
 
Our agreements and contracts entered into with partners and other third parties may not be successful.
 
We signed in the past and may pursue in the future contracts and agreements with third parties to assist in our marketing, manufacturing, selling, and distribution efforts. We cannot assure you that any agreements or arrangements entered into will be successful.
 
The current disruptions in the financial markets could affect our ability to obtain debt financing on favorable terms (or at all) and have other adverse effects on us.
 
The United States credit markets have recently experienced historic dislocations and liquidity disruptions which have caused financing to be unavailable in many cases and even if available caused spreads on prospective debt financings to widen considerably. These circumstances have materially impacted liquidity in the debt markets, making financing terms for borrowers able to find financing less attractive, and in many cases have resulted in the unavailability of certain types of debt financing. Continued uncertainty in the credit markets may negatively impact our ability to access debt financing on favorable terms or at all. In addition, Federal legislation to deal with the current disruptions in the financial markets could have an adverse effect on our financial condition and results of operations.
 
The fluctuation of our quarterly results may adversely affect the trading price of our common stock.
 
Our revenues and results of operations have in the past and will likely vary in the future from quarter to quarter due to a number of factors, many of which are outside of our control and any of which may cause our stock price to fluctuate. You should not rely on quarter-to-quarter comparisons of our results of operations as an indication of our future performance. It is likely that in some future quarters, our results of operations may be below the expectations of public market analysts and investors. In this event, the price of our common stock may fall.
 
We may not be able to attract and retain additional key management, sales and marketing and technical personnel, or we may lose existing key management, sales and marketing or technical personnel, which may delay our development and marketing efforts.
 
We depend on a number of key management, sales and marketing and technical personnel. The loss of the services of one or more key employees could delay the achievement of our development and marketing objectives. Our success will also depend on our ability to attract and retain additional highly qualified management, sales and marketing and technical personnel to meet our growth goals. We face intense competition for qualified personnel, many of whom are often subject to competing employment offers, and we do not know whether we will be able to attract and retain such personnel.
 
Future changes in financial accounting standards or practices or existing taxation rules or practices may cause adverse or unexpected revenue fluctuations and affect our reported results of operations.
 
A change in accounting standards or practices or a change in existing taxation rules or practices can have a significant effect on our reported results and may even affect our reporting of transactions completed before the change is effective. New accounting pronouncements and taxation rules and varying interpretations of accounting pronouncements and taxation practice have occurred and may occur in the future. Changes to existing rules or the questioning of current practices may adversely affect our reported financial results or the way we conduct our business.
  
Adverse litigation results could affect our business.
 
Litigation can be lengthy, expensive and disruptive to our operations, and results cannot be predicted with certainty. An adverse decision could result in monetary damages or injunctive relief that could affect our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.
 
The recently enacted Affordable Healthcare for America Act includes provisions that may adversely affect our business and results of operations, including an excise tax on the sales of most medical devices.
 
On March 21, 2010, the House of Representatives passed the Affordable Health Care for America Act, which President Obama signed into law on March 23, 2010. While we are continuing to evaluate this legislation and its potential impact on the Company, it may adversely affect our business and results of operations, possibly materially.
 
Specifically, one of the new law's components is a 2.3% excise tax on sales of most medical devices, starting in 2013. This tax may put increased cost pressure on medical device companies, including our customers, and may lead our customers to reduce their orders for products we produce or to request that we reduce the prices we charge for products we produce in order to offset the tax.

Item 6. Selected Financial Data.
 
We are a “smaller reporting company” as defined by Regulation S-K and, as such, we are not required to provide the information contained in this item pursuant to Regulation S-K.
 
Item 7. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.
 
Results of Operations:
 
The following discussion and analysis provides information which the Company's management believes is relevant to an assessment and understanding of the Company's results of operations and financial condition. This discussion should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto appearing elsewhere herein. Unless otherwise specified, this discussion relates solely to the Company's continuing operations.
 
All of the Company's sales to date have been derived from the sale of medical device products, which include manufacture and distribution of ultrasonic medical device products, and laboratory and scientific products, which include ductless fume enclosures for filtration of gaseous emissions in laboratory and forensic markets.
 
Fiscal years ended June 30, 2011 and 2010:
 
Net sales: Net sales increased $1,068,786 or 8% to $14,440,061 in fiscal 2011 from $13,371,275 in fiscal 2010. This difference in net sales is principally due to an increase in medical device products sales of $1,635,649 or 15.2% to $12,373,028 in fiscal 2011 from $10,737,379 in fiscal 2010. The increase in sales of medical device products is principally due to an increase in Neuroaspirator revenues of $1,990,888, and higher SonicOne revenue of $394,525 along with higher Autosonix revenue of $65,803, partially offset by lower BoneScalpel revenues of $866,495. BoneScalpel revenue was lower primarily due to a shift to in house sales based upon Aesculap becoming a non- exclusive distributor of the BoneScalpel Product. Aesculap revenues were reduced due to their order shortfall against contractual requirements. The Company believes BoneScalpel revenues will rise in subsequent years due to renewed focus. This increase in medical device products sales was partially offset by a decrease in sales of laboratory and scientific products of $566,863 to $2,067,033 in fiscal 2011 from $2,633,896 in fiscal 2010. The decrease in sales of laboratory and scientific products is due to a decrease in forensic ductless fume enclosure sales; primarily the result of the current economic conditions in the United States, particularly affecting municipalities to which these products are sold.
 
The Company's revenues are generated from various geographic regions. The following is an analysis of net sales by geographic region:

Gross profit: Gross profit increased to 52.5% in fiscal 2011 from 48.8% in fiscal 2010. Gross profit for medical device products increased to 57.3% in fiscal 2011 from 54% in fiscal 2010. Gross profit for therapeutic medical device products was positively impacted by a favorable product mix due to increased sales of the Neuroaspirator product, primarily disposables, as the Company is selling this product directly as opposed to through a distributor in the United States. Gross profit for laboratory and scientific products decreased to 24.1% in fiscal 2011 from 27.6% in fiscal 2010 due to lower volume. Gross profit for the three months ended June 30, 2011 was 52.5% as compared to 53.6% for the three months ended June 30, 2010. Gross margins for medical device products were 56.7% for the three months ended June 30, 2011 as compared to 57.5% for the three months ended June 30, 2010. Laboratory and scientific products gross margins were 13.5% for the three months ended June 30, 2011 and 32.7% for the three months ended June 30, 2010.
 
Selling expenses: Selling expenses increased $788,917 to $4,413,989 (30.6% of net sales) in fiscal 2011 from $3,625,072 (27.1% of net sales) in fiscal 2010. Laboratory and scientific products selling expenses increased approximately $6,125. Selling expenses for medical device products increased approximately $782,765, principally due to commissions because the Company is selling the Neuroaspirator directly, as opposed to using distributors, higher travel expenses of $128,410, partially offset by a decrease in other selling expenses of $16,484. Selling expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2011 increased $339,649 to $1,315,022 (31.6% of net sales) from $975,373 (22.8% of net sales) in the three months ended June 30, 2010. Selling expenses related to medical device products sales increased approximately $352,855 due to increased commissions of $219,169, higher travel expenses of $73,427 and marketing expenses of $76,937, partially offset by other lower selling expenses of $16,678. Laboratory and scientific products selling expenses decreased approximately $13,206.

General and administrative expenses: Total general and administrative expenses decreased $556,327 in fiscal 2011 to $4,499,521 from $5,055,848 in fiscal 2010 due to lower rent and utilities expenses of $207,731, salary expense of $181,484, insurance $131,957, bank fees of $99,566, and other favorable expenses of $710, partially offset by increased shareholder relation expenses of $65,121. General and administrative expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2011 decreased $66,025 to $1,165,183 from $1,231,208 for the three months ended June 30, 2010 due to lower rent expense, partially offset by increased legal and accounting fees.
 
Research and development expenses: Research and development expenses decreased $90,945 to $1,712,579 in fiscal 2011 from $1,803,524 in fiscal 2010. Research and development expenses for medical device products decreased $25,746. Laboratory and scientific products research and development expenses decreased $65,199. The decrease in research and development expenses related to medical device products is mainly related to lower patent amortization of approximately $34,731 at Hearing Innovations partially offset by other unfavorable expenses of $8,985. The decrease in research and development expenses related to laboratory and scientific products is due to lower salary related expenses of $55,659 and other favorable expenses of $9,540. Research and development expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2011 decreased $6,933 to $409,458, from $416,391 for the three months ended June 30, 2010. Medical device products research and development costs increased $16,203 and expenses for laboratory and scientific products decreased $23,136 for the three months ended June 30, 2011.
              
Other income: Other income decreased $382,433 in fiscal 2011 to $689,878 from $1,072,311 in fiscal 2010. The decrease in other income is primarily due to the recovery of the Focus Surgery, Inc. note in the third quarter of fiscal 2010 in the amount of $693,044. This amount was partially offset by the receipt of a federal therapeutic discovery credit of $114,391, lower interest expenses of $47,420, lower royalty expenses of $37,753, higher royalty income of $26,825, favorable foreign exchange of $70,594 and other favorable expenses of $13,628. Other income (expense) increased $90,091 to $112,185 for the three months ended June 30, 2011 from $22,094 for the three months ended June 30, 2010. The increase is due to favorable foreign exchange of $56,385, higher net royalty income of $20,542 and other favorable expenses of $13,164.
 
Income taxes: In fiscal 2011 the income tax expense effective tax rate was (3)%. In prior years the Company established a valuation allowance against deferred tax assets due to the net loss from operations over the past 5 years which caused management to conclude that it is more likely than not its deferred tax assets will not be fully realized.

Critical Accounting Policies:
 
General: Note 1 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements included in this Annual Report includes a summary of the Company's significant accounting policies and methods used in the preparation of its financial statements. The Company's discussion and analysis of its financial condition and results of operations is based upon the Company's financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. The preparation of these financial statements requires the Company to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses. On an on-going basis, management evaluates its estimates and judgments, including those related to bad debts, inventories, goodwill, property, plant and equipment and income taxes. Management bases its estimates and judgments on historical experience and on various other factors that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions. The Company believes that the following are our more critical estimates and assumptions used in the preparation of our consolidated financial statements:
 
Accounts Receivable and Allowance for Doubtful Accounts: Accounts receivable, principally trade, are generally due within 30 to 90 days and are stated at amounts due from customers, net of an allowance for doubtful accounts. The Company performs ongoing credit evaluations and adjusts credit limits based upon payment history and the customer's current credit worthiness, as determined by a review of their current credit information. The Company continuously monitors aging reports, collections and payments from customers and maintains a provision for estimated credit losses based upon historical experience and any specific customer collection issues that have been identified. While such credit losses have historically been within expectations and the provisions established, the Company cannot guarantee the same credit loss rates will be experienced in the future. The Company writes off accounts receivable when they become uncollectible.
 
Inventories: Inventories, consisting of purchased materials, direct labor and manufacturing overhead, are stated at the lower of cost (determined by the first-in, first-out method) or market. At each balance sheet date, we evaluate ending inventories for excess quantities and obsolescence. Our evaluation includes an analysis of historical sales by product, projections of future demand by product, the risk of technological or competitive obsolescence for our products, general market conditions, and the feasibility of reworking or using excess or obsolete products or components in the production or assembly of other products that are not obsolete or for which we do not have excess quantities in inventory. To the extent that we determine there are excess or obsolete quantities, we record valuation reserves against all or a portion of the value of the related products to adjust their carrying value to estimated net realizable value. If future demand or market conditions are different from our projections, or if we are unable to rework excess or obsolete quantities into other products, we may change the recorded amount of inventory valuation reserves through a charge or reduction in cost of product revenues in the period the revision is made.
 
Long Lived Assets: Property, plant and equipment are recorded at cost. Minor replacements and maintenance and repair expenses are charged to expense as incurred. Depreciation of property and equipment is provided using the straight-line method over estimated useful lives ranging from 3 to 5 years. Leasehold improvements are amortized over the life of the lease or the useful life of the related asset, whichever is shorter. Inventory items included in property, plant and equipment are depreciated using the straight line method over estimated useful lives of 3 to 5 years. We evaluate long-lived assets, including property, plant and equipment and intangible assets other than goodwill, for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amounts of specific assets or group of assets may not be recoverable. When an evaluation is required, we estimate the future undiscounted cash flows associated with the specific asset or group of assets. If the cost of the asset or group of assets cannot be recovered by these undiscounted cash flows, an impairment charge would be recorded. Our estimates of future cash flows are based on our experience and internal business plans. Our internal business plans require judgments regarding future economic conditions, product demand and pricing. Although we believe our estimates are appropriate, significant differences in the actual performance of an asset or group of assets may materially affect our evaluation of the recoverability of the asset values currently recorded.

Revenue Recognition: The Company records revenue upon shipment for products shipped F.O.B. shipping point. Products shipped F.O.B. destination points are recorded as revenue when received at the point of destination. Shipments under agreements with distributors are not subject to return and payment for these shipments is not contingent on sales by the distributor. Accordingly, the Company recognizes revenue on shipments to distributors in the same manner as with other customers. Fees from exclusive license agreements are recognized ratably over the terms of the respective agreements. Service contract and royalty income are recognized when earned.
 
Goodwill:
 
The Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Nos. 805 and 350, “Business Combinations” and “Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets,” respectively.
 
Goodwill and intangible assets with indefinite useful lives are not amortized. We review goodwill and identifiable intangible assets with indefinite lives for impairment annually and whenever events or changes indicate that the carrying value of an asset may not be recoverable. These events or circumstances could include a significant change in the business climate, legal factors, operating performance indicators, competition, or sale or disposition of significant assets or products. Application of these impairment tests requires significant judgments, including estimation of cash flows, which is dependent on internal forecasts, estimation of the long-term rate of growth for our business, the useful life over which cash flows will occur and determination of our weighted-average cost of capital. Changes in the projected cash flows and discount rate estimates and assumptions underlying the valuation of identifiable intangible assets, in-process research and development, and goodwill could materially affect the determination of fair value at acquisition or during subsequent periods when tested for impairment. The Company completed its annual goodwill impairment tests for fiscal 2011 and 2010 in the respective fourth quarter. No impairment of goodwill was deemed to exist.
 
Income Taxes: Income taxes are accounted for in accordance with ASC No. 740, "Accounting for Income Taxes". Under this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases and operating loss and tax credit carryforwards. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date. Significant judgment is required in determining the realizability of deferred tax assets including estimates of future sufficient taxable income to support the recovery of tax assets.
 
Financial Accounting Standards establish guidance for the determination of whether tax benefits claimed or expected to be claimed on a tax return should be recorded in the financial statements. The Company may recognize the tax benefits from an uncertain tax position only it is more likely than not that the tax position will be sustained on examination by the taxing authorities based on the technical merits of the position. The tax benefits recognized in the financial statement from such positions should be measured based on the largest benefit that has a greater than fifty percent likelihood of being realized upon ultimate settlement. Financial Accounting Standards also provide guidance on derecognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods and disclosures requirements,
 
Stock-Based Compensation: The Company adopted the fair-value recognition provisions of ASC No. 817 "Share-Based Payment" and SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 107 using the modified-prospective transition method; therefore, prior periods have not been restated. The fair value of the stock options is estimated based upon option price, volatility, the risk free rate, and the average time the shares are held. It is then amortized over the vesting period. See Note 7 of the Company's consolidated financial statements for additional information regarding stock-based compensation.

Item 9A. Controls and Procedures.
 
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
 
We maintain disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended ("Exchange Act")) that are designed to assure that information required to be disclosed in our Exchange Act reports is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC's rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures.
 
As required by Exchange Act Rule 13a-15(b), as of the end of the period covered by this Annual Report, under the supervision and with the participation of our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, we evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures. Based on this evaluation, our principal executive officer and principal financial officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of that date. This is in accordance with Section 404(a) of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 ("SOX") because the Company is a smaller reporting company under the SEC's rules. We are not required to be in compliance with SOX 404(b), which requires attestation by a company's independent auditors.
 
Management's Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting
 
Management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the Exchange Act. Internal control over financial reporting is a process designed by, or under the supervision of, the principal executive officer and principal financial officer, and affected by the board of directors and management to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles ("GAAP") including those policies and procedures that: (i) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of assets, (ii) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with U.S. GAAP and that receipts and expenditures are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and the directors, and (iii) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.
 
The Company’s internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. The Company’s internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (1) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the Company; (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the Company’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.
 
Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.
 
Management conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of the internal control over financial reporting based on the framework in Internal Control — Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission. Based on this evaluation, management concluded that internal control over financial reporting was effective as of June 30, 2011.  In order to assist in the testing of our internal controls, the Company engaged a third- party to assist in the testing and evaluation of our internal control systems.
 
This Annual Report does not include an attestation report of the Company's current independent registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting. Management's report was not subject to attestation by the Company's current independent registered public accounting firm pursuant to rules of the SEC that permit the Company to provide only management's report in this Annual Report.
 
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting.
 
There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as such term is defined in Rule 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) during our fourth fiscal quarter that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Item 11. Executive Compensation.
 
Compensation Discussion and Analysis
 
Overview of Compensation Program and Philosophy
 
Our compensation program is intended to:

 
Attract, motivate, retain and reward employees of outstanding ability;

 
Link changes in employee compensation to individual and corporate performance;

 
Align employees' interests with those of the Company's shareholders.
 
The ultimate objective of our compensation program is to increase shareholder value. We seek to achieve these objectives with a total compensation approach which takes into account a competitive base salary, bonus pay based on the annual performance of the Company and individual goals and stock option awards.
 
Base Salaries
 
Base salaries paid to executives are intended to attract and retain highly talented individuals. In setting base salaries, individual experience, individual performance, the Company's performance and job responsibilities during the year are considered. Executive salaries are reconciled by Human Resources and evaluated against local companies of similar size and nature.
 
Annual Bonus Plan Compensation
 
The Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors approves annual performance-based compensation. The purpose of the annual bonus-based compensation is to motivate executive officers and key employees. Target bonuses, based upon recommendations from the Chief Executive Officer, are evaluated and approved by the Compensation Committee for all employees other than the Chief Executive Officer. The bonus recommendations are derived from individual and Company performance but not based on a specific formula and are discretionary. The Chief Executive Officer's bonus compensation is derived from the Board of Directors' recommendation to the Compensation Committee based upon the Chief Executive Officer's performance and Company performance but is not based on a specific formula and is discretionary.
 
Stock Option Awards
 
Stock option awards are intended to attract and retain highly talented executives, to provide an opportunity for significant compensation when overall Company performance is reflected in the stock price and to help align executives' and shareholders' interests. Stock options are typically granted at the time of hire to key new employees and annually to a broad group of existing key employees, including executive officers.
 
Annual option grants to executive officers are made in the form of incentive stock options ("ISO's") to the fullest extent permitted under tax laws, with the balance granted in the form of nonqualified stock options. ISO's have potential income tax advantage for executives if the executive disposes of the acquired shares after satisfying certain holding periods. Tax laws provide that the aggregate grant at date of grant for market value of ISO's that become exercisable for any employee in any year may not exceed $100,000.
 
Our current standard vesting schedule for all employees is 25% on the first anniversary of the date of grant, 50% on the second anniversary of the date of grant, 75% on the third anniversary of the date of grant and 100% on the fourth anniversary of the date of grant.
 
401 (k) Plan
 
Our Individual Deferred Tax and Savings Plan (the "401 (k) plan") is a tax qualified retirement savings plan pursuant to which all of the Company's U.S. employees may defer compensation under Section 401 (k) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code"). The Company contributes an amount equal to 10% of salary contributed under the 401 (k) plan by an eligible employee, up to the maximum allowed under the Code. We do not provide any supplemental retirement benefits to executive officers.

 
28

 
 
Change in Control benefits
 
Change in control benefits are intended to diminish the distraction that executives would face by virtue of the personal uncertainties created by a pending or threatened change in control and to assure that the Company will continue to have the executive's full attention and services at all time. Our change in control benefits are designed to be competitive with similar benefits available at companies with which we compete for executives' talent. These benefits, as one element of our total compensation program, help the Company attract, retain and motivate highly talented executives.
 
Mr. McManus' employment agreement provides that after a change in control of the Company, he is entitled to a one-time additional compensation payment equal to two times his total compensation (annual salary plus bonuses) at the highest rate paid during his employment payable within 60 days of termination. Mr. Zaremba has an agreement for the payment of six months of annual base salary upon a change in control of the Company.
 
Tax deductibility of Executive Compensation
 
Section 162 (m) of the Code limits to $1,000,000 per person the amount that we may deduct for compensation paid to any of our most highly compensated officers in any year. In fiscal 2011, there was no executive officer's compensation that exceeded $1,000,000.
 
The following table sets forth information concerning the compensation awarded to, earned by or paid to our named executive officers during fiscal 2011 for services rendered to the Company:

The agreement also provides for a discretionary bonus based upon achievement of his annual goals and objectives as determined by the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors.
 
In conformity with the Company's policy, all officers and employees have executed a non-solicitation and confidentiality agreement. The agreements generally provide that all inventions or discoveries by the employee related to the Company's business and all confidential information developed or made known to the employee during the term of employment shall be the exclusive property of the Company and shall not be disclosed to third parties without the prior approval of the Company. The Company's employment agreement with Mr. McManus also contains non-competition provisions that preclude him from competing with the Company for a period of 18 months from the date of his termination of employment.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
 
Board of Directors and Stockholders

MISONIX, INC. and Subsidiaries
 
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of MISONIX, INC. and Subsidiaries (the "Company") as of June 30, 2011 and 2010, and the related consolidated statements of operations, stockholders' equity and cash flows for the years then ended. Our audits of the basic consolidated financial statements included the financial statement schedule listed in the index appearing under Item 15(a)(2). These financial statements and financial statement schedule are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements and financial statement schedule based on our audits.
 
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audits included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company's internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
 
In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of MISONIX, INC. and Subsidiaries as of June 30, 2011 and 2010 and the results of their operations and their cash flows for the years then ended in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Also in our opinion, the related financial statement schedule, when considered in relation to the basic financial statements taken as a whole, presents fairly, in all material respects, the information set forth therein.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
For the two years ended June 30, 2011 and June 30, 2010
 
1. Basis of Presentation, Organization and Business and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
 
Basis of Presentation
 
The consolidated financial statements of MISONIX, INC. ("Misonix" or the "Company") include the accounts of Misonix and its 100% owned subsidiaries, Fibra-Sonics (NY) Inc. (“F-S”) and Hearing Innovations, Inc. ("Hearing Innovations"). All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated.
 
Organization and Business
 
Misonix was incorporated under the laws of the State of New York on July 31 1967 and certain of its revenue producing activities, from 1967 to date, have been the manufacture and distribution of scientific and industrial ductless fume enclosures equipment.  In 1992, the Company started research and development efforts towards formulating the ultrasonic medical device business, which currently is the company’s predominant business. Misonix products are sold worldwide. In October 1996, the company entered into licensing agreements to further develop one of its medical devices.
 
In fiscal 2011 and 2010, approximately 30% and 22%, respectively, of the Company's net sales were to foreign markets. Sales by the Company in other major industrial countries are made primarily through distributors.
 
Hearing Innovations is located in Farmingdale, New York and is a development company with patented HiSonic ultrasonic technology for the treatment of profound deafness and tinnitus.

On August 4, 2009, the Company sold its Labcaire Systems, Ltd. ("Labcaire") subsidiary to PuriCore International Limited ("PuriCore Limited") for a total purchase price of up to $5.6 million. The Company received $3.6 million at closing and a promissory note in the principal amount of $1 million, payable in equal installments of $250,000 on the next four anniversaries of the closing. In August 2011, the Company received the first installment. The note receivable was discounted over the four years using a 4% imputed interest rate. This rate was consistent with published discounts. The discounted value of the note ($900,000) was used to determine gain or loss on the sale and the remaining outstanding balance is included in other assets in the consolidated balance sheet, with the current portion reflected as a component of notes receivable. The Company was also to receive a commission paid on sales for the period commencing on the date of closing and ending on December 31, 2013 of 8% of the pass through Automated Endoscope Reprocessing ("AER") and Drying Cabinet products, and 5% of license fees from any chemical licenses marketed by Labcaire directly associated with sale of AERs, specifically for the disinfection of the endoscope. The aggregate commission payable to the Company was also to be subject to a maximum payment of $1,000,000. The aggregate commission was not recognized in determining the gain or loss on the sale of Labcaire until the commission was to be paid. As of June 30, 2011, there were no commissions paid. For the year ended June 30, 2010, the Company recorded a pre-tax loss on the sale of Labcaire of $295,879. Results of Labcaire operations have been reported as a discontinued operation for all periods presented.
 
In January 2011, PuriCore Limited initiated a lawsuit against the Company  in the High Court of Justice, Queens Bench Division, Commercial Court, Royal Courts of Justice, London, England (Claim No. 2011-42) (the "Lawsuit"). In the Lawsuit, PuriCore Limited claimed damages from the Company in respect of breach of warranties contained in the Stock Purchase Agreement, dated August 4, 2009 (the "SPA"), pursuant to which the Company sold Labcaire to PuriCore Limited. PuriCore Limited claimed damages of £2,167,000 or approximately $3,600,000, plus interest and its legal costs. The Company denied the allegations contained in the Lawsuit.
 
On July 19, 2011, PuriCore Limited and the Company reached an agreement to settle the Lawsuit (the "Settlement"). The Settlement provides that the Company (i) forgive in full PuriCore Limited and PuriCore plc's obligation under the SPA to pay up to $1,000,000 of the previously unrecorded, contingent Commissions (as described above); (ii) pay PuriCore, Inc. ("PuriCore"), an affiliate of PuriCore Limited, $650,000 towards PuriCore Limited's legal costs which has been accrued for as of June 30, 2011 and recorded as a component of loss from discontinued operations for the year ended June 30, 2011 and (iii) enter into a Product License and Distribution Agreement, dated as of July 19, 2011, with PuriCore (the "Distribution Agreement").

MISONIX, INC. and Subsidiaries
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
For the two years ended June 30, 2011 and June 30, 2010
 
Pursuant to the Distribution Agreement, the Company has been granted the right to distribute PuriCore's Vashe solution products in the United States, on a private label basis, as an irrigating solution for the treatment of human wound care in conjunction with therapeutic ultrasonic procedures (the "Field"). PuriCore has agreed, subject to modification, not to sell the products that are the subject of the Distribution Agreement (the "Licensed Products") to any other therapeutic ultrasound company for distribution in the Field in the United States ("Exclusivity"). The Company has agreed not to sell or distribute in the United States in the Field any irrigating solution that has anti-microbial properties other than the Licensed Products so long as the Company has Exclusivity.
 
The Distribution Agreement is for a three (3) year term with automatic renewals for successive two (2) year periods; provided that the Company and PuriCore have agreed upon sales volume targets for each renewal period (such volume targets not to increase by more than ten (10%) percent year over year unless otherwise agreed) and provided that the cost terms shall be no less favorable than the twelve (12) months leading up to the start of such renewal period. In no event will the Distribution Agreement survive beyond the expiration or invalidation of all of PuriCore's patents.
 
During the initial term of the Distribution Agreement, the Company is obligated to either purchase or pay a minimum of $2,000,000 in gross margin value to PuriCore for the Licensed Products (the "Minimum Payment"). The Minimum Payment is subject to downward adjustment and elimination in the event that (i) PuriCore chooses to eliminate Exclusivity, (ii) the Company's right to manufacture the Licensed Products under certain conditions has been triggered but the Company is unable to manufacture the Licensed Products or to have the Licensed Products manufactured for it by third parties or (iii) the U.S. Food and Drug Administration has made a final determination that prohibits the sale of the Licensed Products for use in the Field.
 
The Company has the right to manufacture the Licensed Products if PuriCore is unable to meet certain performance standards and will pay PuriCore a royalty after the $2,000,000 in gross margin value requirement has been satisfied if the Company is then manufacturing the Licensed Products.
 
During a renewal period, PuriCore may terminate the Distribution Agreement if (i) the Company fails to purchase the agreed upon volume target for such renewal period and does not cure such failure in accordance with the Distribution Agreement or (ii) upon twelve (12) months’ notice.
 
On October 2, 2009, Acoustic Marketing Research, Inc. d/b/a Sonora Medical Systems ("Sonora") sold substantially all of its assets to Medical Imaging Holdings, Inc.

On May 28, 2010, Misonix announced the sale to USHIFU, LLC ("USHIFU") of all of its rights to the High Intensity Focused Ultrasound ("HIFU") technology together with other HIFU-related assets. In consideration for the sale, Misonix will receive up to approximately $5.8 million, paid out of an earn-out of 7% of gross revenues received by USHIFU related to the businesses being sold, up to the time the Company has received the first $3 million, and thereafter 5% of gross revenues up to the $5.8 million. Commencing 90 days after each December 31st and, beginning December 31, 2011, the payments will be the greater of (a) $250,000 or (b) 7% of gross revenues received up to the time the Company has received the first $3 million, and thereafter 5% of gross revenues up to the $5.8 million. Misonix will also be paid for 3 units in inventory of new Sonablate® 500 machines which totaled $465,000. The obligation to pay for such machines was secured by a note due December 31, 2010. At December 31, 2010, the note was fully paid, and cash received is shown in the discontinued operations section of the Company's cash flow statements. At the closing of such transaction, USHIFU paid Misonix for inventory associated with manufacturing the Sonablate 500 and reimbursed Misonix for certain monies expended in connection with the HIFU Registry. The results of HIFU operations have been reported as a discontinued operation for all periods presented. Misonix retained all of its rights associated with the HIFU-related intellectual property and development assets purchased from ProRhythm, Inc. This intellectual property involves the development of new transducers and lenses to be used in the treatment of tissue using HIFU. This technology may be applied on a worldwide basis to a variety of organs not limited to kidney, liver, or breast tissue treatment.

Reclassification
 
Certain prior period amounts in the accompanying financial statements and related notes have been reclassified to conform to the current period's presentation.
 
Cash and Cash Equivalents
 
The Company considers all highly liquid debt instruments purchased with a maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents. Cash balances outside the United States totaled $0 and $103,219 at June 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively.
 
The Company maintains cash balances at various financial institutions. At June 30, 2011, these financial institutions held cash that was approximately $6,640,000 in excess of amounts insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation and other government agencies.
 
Major Customers and Concentration of Credit Risk
 
Included in sales of the medical devices segment are sales to United States Surgical Corporation ("USS"), a unit of Covidien Ltd., of $3,260,000 and $3,172,000, Aesculap, Inc. (“Aesculap”) of $859,000 and $3,224,000, and Mentor/Byron (a Johnson & Johnson Company) of $900,000 and $983,000 for the fiscal years ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively. Total royalties from USS related to their sales of the Company's ultrasonic cutting product, which uses high frequency sound waves to coagulate and divide tissue for both open and laparoscopic surgery, were approximately $550,000 and $576,000 during the fiscal years ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively. Accounts receivable from USS were approximately $413,000 and $137,000 from Aesculap were approximately $6,300 and $328,000 and Mentor/Byron were approximately $171,000 and $84,000 at June 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively. At June 30, 2011 and 2010, the Company's accounts receivable with customers outside the United States were approximately $674,000 and $602,000, respectively.
 
Accounts Receivable
 
Accounts receivable, principally trade, are generally due within 30 to 90 days and are stated at amounts due from customers, net of an allowance for doubtful accounts. The Company performs ongoing credit evaluations and adjusts credit limits based upon payment history and the customer's current credit worthiness, as determined by a review of their current credit information. The Company continuously monitors aging reports, collections and payments from customers and maintains a provision for estimated credit losses based upon historical experience and any specific customer collection issues that have been identified. While such credit losses have historically been within expectations and the provisions established, the Company cannot guarantee that the same credit loss rates will be experienced in the future. The Company writes off accounts receivable when they become uncollectible.

Inventories
 
Inventories are stated at the lower of cost (first-in, first-out) or market and consist of raw materials, work-in-process and finished goods. Management evaluates the need to record adjustments for impairments of inventory on a quarterly basis. The Company's policy is to assess the valuation of all inventories, including raw materials, work-in-process and finished goods. Inventory items used for demonstration purposes, rentals or on consignment are classified in property, plant and equipment.
 
Property, Plant and Equipment
 
Property, plant and equipment are recorded at cost.. Minor replacements and maintenance and repair expenses are charged to expense as incurred. Depreciation of property and equipment is provided using the straight-line method over estimated useful lives ranging from 3 to 5 years. Leasehold improvements are amortized over the life of the lease or the useful life of the related asset, whichever is shorter. The Company's policy is to periodically evaluate the appropriateness of the lives assigned to property, plant and equipment and make adjustments if necessary. Inventory items included in property, plant and equipment are depreciated using the straight line method over estimated useful lives of 3 to 5 years.
 
Revenue Recognition
 
The Company records revenue upon shipment for products shipped F.O.B. shipping point. Products shipped F.O.B. destination point are recorded as revenue when received at the point of destination. Shipments under agreements with distributors are not subject to return, and payment for these shipments is not contingent on sales by the distributor. Accordingly the Company recognizes revenue on shipments to distributors in the same manner as with other customers. Fees from exclusive license agreements are recognized ratably over the terms of the respective agreements. Service contracts and royalty income are recognized when earned. Fee for use revenue is recognized when the procedure is performed.
 
The Company currently presents taxes collected from customers and remitted to governmental authorities in the statement of operations on a net basis.
 
Long-Lived Assets
 
The carrying values of intangible and other long-lived assets, excluding goodwill, are periodically reviewed to determine if any impairment indicators are present. If it is determined that such indicators are present and the review indicates that the assets will not be fully recoverable, based on undiscounted estimated cash flows over the remaining amortization and depreciation period, their carrying values are reduced to estimated fair value. Impairment indicators include, among other conditions, cash flow deficits, an historic or anticipated decline in revenue or operating profit, adverse legal or regulatory developments, accumulation of costs significantly in excess of amounts originally expected to acquire the asset and a material decrease in the fair value of some or all of the assets. Assets are grouped at the lowest level for which there are identifiable cash flows that are largely independent of the cash flows generated by other asset groups. No such impairment existed at June 30, 2011 and 2010.
 
Goodwill
 
Goodwill represents the excess of the purchase price over the fair value of the net assets acquired in connection with the Company's acquisitions of assets of Fibra Sonics, Inc.
 
Goodwill and intangible assets with indefinite useful lives are not amortized. We review goodwill and identifiable intangible assets with indefinite lives for impairment annually and whenever events or changes indicate that the carrying value of an asset may not be recoverable. These events or circumstances could include a significant change in the business climate, legal factors, operating performance indicators, competition, or sale or disposition of significant assets or products. Application of these impairment tests requires significant judgments, including estimation of cash flows, which is dependent on internal forecasts, estimation of the long-term rate of growth for our business, the useful life over which cash flows will occur and determination of our weighted-average cost of capital. Changes in the projected cash flows and discount rate estimates and assumptions underlying the valuation of goodwill could materially affect the determination of fair value at acquisition or during subsequent periods when tested for impairment. The Company completed its annual goodwill impairment tests for fiscal 2011 and 2010 in the respective fourth quarter. No impairment of goodwill was deemed to exist.

Other Assets and Intangibles
 
The cost of acquiring or processing patents is capitalized at cost. This amount is being amortized using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the underlying assets, which is approximately 17 years. Net patents reported in other assets totaled $548,016 and $517,735 at June 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively. Accumulated amortization totaled $420,359 and $355,678 at June 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively. Amortization expense for the years ended June 30, 2011 and 2010 was approximately $65,000 and $71,000, respectively.
 
On October 7, 2010, the Company, F-S and Aesculap entered into a Termination, Amendment and Buy-Back Agreement to Distributor Agreement (the "Termination Agreement"). Pursuant to the Termination Agreement, the parties agreed to terminate, as of October 15, 2010 (the "Termination Date"), (i) Misonix's remaining obligations under the Distributor Agreement dated November 1999 between Aesculap and F-S, as amended (the "Distributor Agreement"), and (ii) Aesculap's rights to sell procedure packs (the "Sale Rights") to the Sonastar Customers (as defined below). On the Termination Date, in consideration of the purchase and sale of (i) Aesculap's current service contracts ("Sonastar Contracts") for the products (the "Products") that are the subject of the Distributor Agreement, customer list and customers currently evaluating the Products all with respect to the sale and servicing of the Products (the "Customer List") and (ii) the Sale Rights, on October 15, 2010, Misonix paid Aesculap $800,000. Misonix will assume all rights, responsibilities and obligations pursuant to and under the (i) Sonastar Contracts and Customer List and (ii) the Sale Rights, including, without limitation, the sale of accessory Products and servicing and training of the Products to the customers with Sonastar Contracts (the "Sonastar Customers"). Misonix also agreed to repurchase from Aesculap the current inventory of (i) new Products held by Aesculap at the price Aesculap paid for such Products and (ii) used Products held by Aesculap for demonstration and/or loaner purposes at the prices equal to Aesculap's book-value as of July 31, 2010 for such Products. The purchase price for the current inventory acquired was $519,000 and is payable in four quarterly installments beginning on December 31, 2010. Payments in the amount of $259,761 were made to Aesculap as of June 30, 2011. Aesculap also agreed to certain non-competition and non-solicitation restrictions for an eighteen (18) month period.
 
The Company has determined that the acquisition did not constitute a business combination in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") Accounting Standards Codification 805, Business Combinations. Accordingly, it has been recorded as an asset acquisition with the aggregate cost of $1,319,000 assigned to the assets acquired based upon their relative fair values. The Company has allocated $259,000 of the cost to inventory, $260,000 of the cost to equipment which will be amortized over a three year period on a straight-line basis and $800,000 to customer relationships which will be amortized on a straight-line basis over a five year period.
 
Net customer relationships reported in other assets totaled $680,000 and $0 at June 30, 2011 and June 30, 2010, respectively. Accumulated amortization amounted to $120,000 at June 30, 2011.  Amortization expense for the year ended June 30, 2011 was $120,000.  As of June 30, 2011 $259,761 was paid for Aesculap inventory.  The remaining balance of $259,761 will be paid by October 1, 2011.
 
The following is a schedule of estimated future amortization expense as of June 30, 2011:

Income Taxes
 
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases and operating loss and tax credit carry forwards. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date.  The ultimate realization of deferred tax assets is dependent upon the generation of future taxable income in those periods in which temporary differences become deductible.  Should management determine that it is more likely than not that some portion of the deferred tax asset will not be realized, a valuation allowance against the deferred tax asset would be established in the period such determination was made.
 
The Company recognizes a tax benefit from an uncertain tax position only if it is more likely than not that the tax position will be sustained on examination by the taxing authorities based on the technical merits of the position. The tax benefits recognized in the financial statements from such position is measured based on the largest benefit that has a greater than fifty percent likelihood of being realized upon ultimate settlement. The Company classifies income tax related interest and penalties as a component of income tax expense.
 
Net Income (Loss) Per Share
 
Basic net income (loss) per common share ("Basic EPS") is computed by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding. Diluted net income (loss) per common share ("Diluted EPS") is computed by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted average number of common shares and the dilutive common share equivalents and convertible securities then outstanding. Diluted EPS for all years presented is the same as Basic EPS, as the inclusion of the effect of common share equivalents then outstanding would be anti-dilutive. For this reason, excluded from the calculation of Diluted EPS for the two years ended June 30, 2011 and 2010 were outstanding options to purchase 1,795,415 shares and 1,848,510 shares, respectively.

Comprehensive Loss
 
Total comprehensive loss was $(3,534,246) for the year ended June 30, 2011 and $(2,842,188) for the year ended June 30, 2010, respectively.
 
Research and Development
 
All research and development expenses are expensed as incurred and are included in operating expenses.
 
Advertising Expense
 
The cost of advertising is expensed in the period the advertising first takes place. The Company incurred approximately $166,000 and $105,000 in advertising costs during the years ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively.
 
Use of Estimates
 
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amount 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.
 
Shipping and Handling
 
Shipping and handling fees for the years ended June 30, 2011 and 2010 were approximately $86,000 and $72,000, respectively, and are reported as a component of net sales. Shipping and handling costs for the years ended June 30, 2011 and 2010 were approximately $135,000 and $85,000, respectively, and are reported as a component of selling expenses.
 
Stock-Based Compensation
 
The Company measures compensation cost for all share based payments at fair value and recognizes the cost over the vesting period.  The Company utilizes the straight line amortization method to recognize the expense associated with the awards with graded vesting terms.
 
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
 
In October 2009, the FASB, issued an accounting pronouncement which amends revenue recognition guidance for arrangements with multiple deliverables. The new guidance eliminates the residual method of revenue recognition and allows the use of management's best estimate of a selling price for individual elements of an arrangement when vendor specific objective evidence, vendor objective evidence or third-party evidence is unavailable. Full retrospective application of the new guidance is optional. The adoption of this pronouncement did not have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements.
 
In January 2010, the FASB issued an accounting pronouncement which amends fair value measurements and disclosures. The reporting entity must disclose information that enables the users of its financial statements to assess both (a) for assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis in periods subsequent to internal recognition, the valuation techniques and inputs used to develop their measurement and (b) for recurring fair value measurement using significant unobservable inputs, the effect of the measurements on earnings for this period. The adoption of this pronouncement did not have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements.
 
In April 2010, the FASB issued guidance to clarify that an employee share-based payment award that has an exercise price denominated in the currency of the market in which a substantial portion of the entity's equity shares trades should not be considered to contain a condition that is not a market, performance or service condition. Therefore, an entity should not classify such an award as a liability if it otherwise qualifies as equity. The amended guidance is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning on or after December 15, 2010. The Company does not expect the adoption of the guidance to have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements.
 
In July 2010, the FASB issued guidance that will enhance future disclosure about the credit quality of a creditor's financing receivables and the adequacy of its allowance for credit losses. The amended guidance will be effective beginning with the first quarterly or annual reporting period ending on or after December 15, 2010. The adoption of the guidance did not have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements.
 
In December 2010, the FASB issued an accounting standard update for business combinations specifically related to the disclosures of supplementary pro forma information for business combinations. This guidance specifies that pro forma disclosures should be reported as if the business combination that occurred during the current year had occurred as of the beginning of the comparable prior annual reporting period and the pro forma disclosures must include a description of material, nonrecurring pro forma adjustments. This standard will be effective for business combinations with an acquisition date of January 1, 2011 or later. The adoption of the guidance is not expected to have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements.
 
In December 2010, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update 2010-28, When to Perform Step 2 of the Goodwill Impairment Test for Reporting Units with Zero or Negative Carrying Amounts, to modify goodwill impairment testing for reporting units with a zero or negative carrying amount. Under the amended guidance, an entity must consider whether it is more likely than not that a goodwill impairment exists for reporting units with a zero or negative carrying amount. If it is more likely than not that a goodwill impairment exists, the second step of the goodwill impairment test in ASC 350-20-35 must be performed to measure the amount of goodwill impairment loss, if any. This standard will be effective for goodwill impairment analysis for fiscal years, and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2010, and becomes effective for our interim and annual reporting periods beginning July 1, 2011. The adoption of the guidance is not expected to have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements.
 
In June 2011, FASB amended Accounting Standard Codification 220, Comprehensive Income.  The amendment eliminates the current option to report other comprehensive income and its components in the statement of changes in stockholders’ equity.  In accordance with the amendment an entity has the option to present the total of comprehensive income, the components of net income, and the components of other comprehensive income in one continuous statement or in two separate, but consecutive statements.  Additionally, reclassification adjustments from other comprehensive income to net income will be presented on the face of the financial statements.  The amendment is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2011, which for us is June 30, 2012 with full retrospective application required.  As a result, the adoption of this standard will change how we present other comprehensive income (loss),which has been historically presented as part of our consolidated statements of stockholder’s equity.

2. Fair Value of Financial Instruments
 
We follow a three-level fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to measure fair value. This hierarchy requires entities to maximize the use of "observable inputs" and minimize the use of "unobservable inputs." The three levels of inputs used to measure fair value are as follows:
 
Level 1: Quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets as of the measurement date.
 
Level 2: Significant other observable inputs other than Level 1 prices such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities; quoted prices in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data.
 
Level 3: Significant unobservable inputs that reflect assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability.

The following methods and assumptions were used to estimate the fair value of each class of financial instruments for which it is practicable to estimate that value.
 
Cash and Cash Equivalents
 
The carrying amount approximates fair value because of the short maturity of those instruments.
 
Trade Accounts Receivable
 
The carrying amount of trade receivables reflects net recovery value and approximates fair value because of their short outstanding terms.
 
Trade Accounts Payable
 
The carrying amount of trade payables approximates fair value because of their short outstanding terms.
 
Note Receivable
 
The carrying amount of the note receivable approximates fair value because the discount rate is fair market value.
 
Note Payable
 
The carrying amount of the note payable approximates fair value because the discount rate is fair market value.

Misonix has entered into several noncancellable operating leases for the rental of certain manufacturing and office space, equipment and automobiles expiring in various years through 2016. The principal building lease provides for a monthly rental amount of approximately $23,000. The Company also leases certain office equipment and automobiles under capital leases expiring through fiscal 2012.
 
The following is a schedule of future minimum lease payments, by year and in the aggregate, under capital and operating leases with initial or remaining terms of one year or more at June 30, 2011:

Certain of the leases provide for escalation clauses, renewal options and the payment of real estate taxes and other occupancy costs. Rent expense for all operating leases was approximately $420,000 and $603,000 for the years ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively.
 
7. Stock-Based Compensation Plans
 
Stock options are granted with exercise prices not less than the fair market value of our common stock at the time of the grant, with an exercise term as determined by the Committee administering the applicable option plan (the "Committee") not to exceed 10 years. The Committee determines the vesting period for the Company's stock options. Generally, such stock options have vesting periods of immediate to four years. Certain option awards provide for accelerated vesting upon meeting specific retirement, death or disability criteria, and upon change of control. During the years ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, the Company granted options to purchase 294,500 and 148,300 shares of the Company's common stock, respectively.
 
Compensation expense is recognized in the general and administrative expenses line item of the Company's statements of operations on a straight-line basis over the vesting periods. There are no capitalized stock-based compensation costs at June 30, 2011 and 2010. As of June 30, 2011, there was approximately $633,000 of total unrecognized compensation cost related to non-vested share-based compensation arrangements to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 2.7 years.

There was no cash received from the exercise of stock options for the year ended June 30, 2011 and 2010. Cash flows from tax benefits attributable to tax deductions in excess of the compensation cost recognized for those options (excess tax benefits) are classified as financing cash flows.
 
The weighted average fair value at date of grant for options granted during the years ended June 30, 2011 and 2010 was $1.61 and $2.02 per share, respectively. The fair value of options at date of grant was estimated using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model utilizing the following assumptions:
 
   
2011
   
2010
 
Risk-free interest rates
   
4.1
%
   
3.1

Expected option life in years

Expected stock price volatility
   
77.88
%
   
81.94
%
Expected dividend yield
   
0
%

The risk free interest rate is based on the U. S. Treasury yield in effect at the time of grant.  The expected option term is based upon the number of years the company estimates the option will be outstanding.  The expected dividend yield is based upon historical and projected dividends.  The Company estimates volatility based upon historical price changes of the Company’s stock over a period equal to that of the expected life of the option.

8. Commitments and Contingencies
 
Employment Agreement
 
Effective July 1, 2009, the Company entered into a new Employment Agreement with Michael A. McManus, Jr., the Company's President and Chief Executive Officer (the "Employment Agreement"). The Employment Agreement was amended effective January 1, 2010. The Employment Agreement expires June 30, 2011 and renews for successive one-year periods thereafter unless terminated by either party not less than 90 days prior to the end of the annual term. The Employment Agreement provides for an annual base salary of $283,250, and an annual bonus based on Mr. McManus' achievement of annual goals and objectives as determined by the Compensation Committee of the Company's Board of Directors. Effective January 1, 2010 the Board approved a three percent increase for Mr. McManus. Mr. McManus is entitled under the Employment Agreement to participate in or receive additional benefits. He is entitled to participate in any plans and programs made available to the executive employees of the Company generally. In addition to termination for cause (including disability) and death, Mr. McManus can terminate the Employment Agreement for good reason (including a change of control of the Company). If Mr. McManus terminates the Employment Agreement for good reason the Company must pay him an amount equal to two times his total compensation (annual base salary plus bonus) at the highest rate paid during the period of his employment, payable in a lump sum within sixty days of termination of employment. Mr. McManus has also agreed in the Employment Agreement to an eighteen month post-termination covenant not to compete, as well as other customary covenants concerning non-solicitation and non-disclosure of confidential information of the Company.
 
Purchase Commitments
 
As of June 30, 2011 and 2010 the Company had inventory related purchase commitments totaling approximately $2,528,000 and $1,437,000, respectively.
 
Contingencies
 
The Company and its subsidiaries are from time to time involved in ordinary and routine litigation.   Management presently believes that the ultimate outcome of these proceedings, individually or in the aggregate, will not have a material adverse effect on the company’s financial position, cash flows or result of operations.  Nevertheless, litigation is subject to inherent uncertainties and unfavorable ruling could occur.  An unfavorable ruling could include money damages and in such event, could result in a material adverse impact on the Company’s results of operations in the which the ruling occurs.

As of June 30, 2011, the valuation allowance was determined by estimating the recoverability of the deferred tax assets. In assessing the realizability of deferred tax assets, management considers whether it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. In making this assessment, the ultimate realization of deferred tax assets is dependent upon the generation of future taxable income and tax planning strategies in making this assessment. Based on these considerations, management concluded that it is more likely than not that its deferred tax assets will not be fully realized.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
For the two years ended June 30, 2011 and June 30, 2010
 
During fiscal 2006, the Company recorded a deferred tax asset related to operating loss carryovers incurred by its wholly-owned subsidiary, Hearing Innovations, in the amount of $1,337,743. The Company recorded a full valuation allowance against these assets in accordance with the provisions of SFAS No. 109. Based upon the capital nature of the deferred tax asset and the Company's projections for future capital gains in which the deferred tax asset would be deductible, management did not deem it more likely than not that the asset would be recoverable at June 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively.
 
As of June 30, 2011, the Company had approximately $11,600,000 U.S. federal net operating loss carryforwards which expire in tax years between 2026 and 2031.  Of the net operating loss carryforwards, approximately $3,900,000 is subject to the separate return loss rules under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code).  The Company has approximately $346,000 of research and development tax credit carryforwards which expire in the tax years between 2026 and 2031.  In addition, the Company has approximately $78,000 of alternative minimum tax credit which has an indefinite carryforward period. The Company has capital loss carryforwards of approximately $387,000 which expire in tax year 2016.
 
Significant components of the income tax expense (benefit) attributable to continuing operations are as follows:

11. Licensing Agreements for Medical Technology
 
In October 1996, the Company entered into a License Agreement (the "USS License") with USS for a twenty-year period, covering the further development and commercial exploitation of the Company's medical technology relating to ultrasonic cutting, which uses high frequency sound waves to coagulate and divide tissue for both open and laparoscopic surgery.
 
The USS License gives USS exclusive worldwide marketing and sales rights for this technology. Under the USS License, the Company has received $475,000 in licensing fees (which are being recorded as income over the term of the USS License), plus royalties based upon net sales of such products. Total royalties from sales of this device were approximately $550,000 and $576,000 for the fiscal years ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively.

12. Employee Profit Sharing Plan
 
The Company sponsors a retirement plan pursuant to Section 401(k) of the Code, for all full time employees. Participants may contribute a percentage of compensation not to exceed the maximum allowed under the Code, which was $16,500 or $21,500 if the employee was over 50 years of age for the year ended June 30, 2010. The plan provides for a matching contribution by the Company of 10% of annual eligible compensation contributed by the participants based on years of service, which amounted to $42,186 and $33,628 for the years ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively.

13. Focus Surgery
 
On March 3, 2008, the Company, USHIFU, FS Acquisition Company and certain other stockholders of Focus Surgery, Inc. ("Focus") entered into a Stock Purchase Agreement (the "Focus Agreement"). The closing of the transactions contemplated by the Focus Agreement took place on July 1, 2008. Pursuant to the Focus Agreement, the Company sold to USHIFU the 2,500 shares of Series M Preferred Stock of Focus owned by the Company for a cash payment of $837,500. The Company also received $693,044, fifty percent (50%) of the outstanding principal and accrued interest of loans previously made by the Company to Focus, with the remaining fifty percent (50%) of such amount of $693,044 paid on January 4, 2010. Upon collection, payment was recognized as a gain.
 
14. Subsequent Event
 
As discussed in Note 1, on July 19, 2011, PuriCore Limited and the Company entered into the Settlement. The Settlement provides that the Company (i) forgive in full PuriCore Limited and PuriCore plc's obligation under the SPA to pay up to $1,000,000 of previously unrecognized, contingent Commissions; (ii) pay PuriCore, an affiliate of PuriCore Limited, $650,000 towards PuriCore Limited's legal costs and (iii) enter into the Distribution Agreement.
