MILESTONE SCIENTIFIC INC.
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(UNAUDITED)
ORGANIZATION, BUSINESS AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION
Milestone Scientific Inc. (“Milestone” or the “Company”) was incorporated in the State of Delaware in August 1989.
The unaudited financial statements of Milestone Scientific Inc. have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for interim financial information. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for complete financial statements.
These unaudited financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto for the year ended December 31, 2007 included in Milestone’s Annual Report on Form 10-KSB. The accounting policies used in preparing these unaudited financial statements are the same as those described in the December 31, 2007 financial statements.
In the opinion of Milestone, the accompanying unaudited financial statements contain all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring entries) necessary to fairly present Milestone’s financial position as of JuneSeptember 30, 2008 and December 31, 2007 and the results of its operations for the sixthree and nine months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2008 and 2007.
The results reported for the three months and sixnine months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2008 are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations which may be expected for a full year.
The Company has incurred operating losses and negative cash flows from operating activities since its inception, including a net loss of $1,089,002$1,275,735 and $1,604,035$2,585,823 for the sixnine months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2008 and 2007, respectively. At JuneSeptember 30, 2008, the Company had cash and cash equivalents and working capital of $260,643$286,020 and $1,487,623,$1,342,830, respectively. Additionally, as discussed in Note 5, on June 28, 2007, the Company secured a revolving line of credit in the aggregate amount of $1,000,000 from a stockholder which line was fully borrowed at December 31, 2007. The Line of Credit was increased by $300,000 to $1,300,000 as of JuneSeptember 30, 2008. All terms and conditions remain unchanged. The Company borrowed $200,000 from the stockholder noted above in July 2008. The borrowing requires a one percent fee at the date of borrowing and an interest rate of six percent per annum, payable at the maturity of the note. The note is due in January 2009 and such amount is included as a current liability in the financial statements at September 30, 2008. The Company is actively pursuing the generation of positive cash flows from operating activities through an increase in revenue based upon management’s assessment of present contracts and current negotiations and reductions in operating expenses; however, the Company does not now have sufficient cash reserves to meet all of its anticipated obligations for the next twelve months. The Company anticipatesHowever, the needinternal sales growth targets have been achieved for a higher levelthe first nine months of marketingthis year and it is anticipated that the future sales efforts that at present it cannot fund.growth targets will be achieved. If the Company is unable to generate positive cash flows from its operating activities it will need to raise additional capital. There is no assurance that the Company will be able to achieve positive operating cash flows or that traditional capital can be raised on terms and conditions satisfactory to the Company, if at all. If additional capital is required and it cannot be raised,future sales growth targets are not achieved, then the Company would be forced to curtail its development activities, reduce marketing expenses for existing dental products and/or adopt other cost saving measures, any of which might negatively affect the Company’s operating results.
Subsequent to June 30, 2008, the Company borrowed an additional $200,000 from the same shareholder noted above. The terms of this borrowing are not finalized at this date, but the terms of the new borrowing are not anticipated to be substantially different from the previous loan agreement.
The Company’s recurring losses and negative operating cash flows raises substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. The accompanying financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.
In November 2007, we entered into a collaborative agreementSubsequent to September 30, 2008, the Company borrowed an additional $250,000 from the shareholder noted above with a globally diversified healthcare companyterms and the maturity date the same as the $200,000 noted borrowed in July 2008.
Subsequent to conduct a feasibility study evaluatingSeptember 30, 2008, the potential application of ourCompuFlo technology for injecting certain medicamentsCompany acquired additional patent rights with respect to painless anesthetic injections — specifically rights related to controlling the flow rate or pressure used in providing these injections — through

Milestone considers all highly liquid investments purchased with a maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents.
Inventories
Inventories principally consist of finished goods and component parts stated at the lower of cost (first-in, first-out method) or market.
Patents
Patents are recorded at actual cost to prepare and file the applicable documents with the United States Patent Office, or internationally with the applicable governmental office in the respective country. Although certain patents have not yet been approved, the costs related to these patents are being amortized using the straight-line method over the estimated useful life of the patent. If the applicable patent application is ultimately rejected, the remaining unamortized balance will be expensed in the period in which the Company receives a notice of such rejection. Patent applications filed and patents obtained in foreign countries are subject to the laws and procedures that differ from those in the United States. Patent protection in foreign countries may be different from patent protection under United States laws and may not be favorable to the Company. The Company also attempts to protect our proprietary information through the use of confidentiality agreements and limiting access to our facilities. There can be no assurance that our program of patents, confidentiality agreements and restricted access to our facilities will be sufficient to protect our proprietary technology.
Revenue Recognition
Revenue from product sales is recognized net of discounts and allowances to our domestic distributors on the date of arrival of the goods at the customer’s location as shipments are FOB destination. Shipments to our international distributors are FOB our warehouse and revenue is therefore recognized on shipment. In both cases, the price to the buyer is fixed and the collectability is reasonably assured. Further, we have no obligation on these sales for any post sale installation, set-up or maintenance, these being the responsibility of the buyer. Customer acceptance is considered made at delivery. Our only obligation after sale is the normal commercial warranty against manufacturing defects if the alleged defective unit is returned within the warranty period.
Royalty income is recognized as earned based on reports received from the licensee and related royalty expense is accrued during the same period.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions in determining the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. The most significant estimates relate to the allowance for doubtful accounts, inventory valuation, cash flow assumptions regarding evaluations for impairment of long-lived assets and valuation allowances on deferred tax assets. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In September 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 157, “Fair Value Measurements.” This new standard defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in generally accepted accounting principles and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. This statement does not require any new fair value measurements but provides guidance in determining fair value measurements presently used in the preparation of financial statements. This new standard is

9


effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007. This Standard was adopted as of January 1, 2008 and did not have a significant impact on Milestone’s results of operations or financial position.
In February 2007, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued SFAS No.159, “The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities -Including—Including an amendment of FASB Statement No. 115”.SFAS No.159 permits entities to choose to measure many financial instruments and certain other items at fair value. The objective is to improve financial reporting by providing entities with the opportunity to mitigate volatility in reported earnings caused by measuring related assets and liabilities differently without having to apply complex hedge accounting provisions. SFAS No.159 is effective as of the first fiscal year that begins after November 15, 2007. This Standard was adopted as of January 1, 2008, and did not have any impact on Milestone’s results of operations or financial position.
In December 2007, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued SFAS No.141 (revised), "Summary No. 141 (revised 2007)”. SFAS No.141 (revised) provides for improving the relevance, representational faithfulness, and comparability of the information that an entity provides in its financial reports about a business combination and its effects. SFAS No.141 (revised) applies prospectively to business combinations for which the acquisition date is on or after December 15, 2008. Milestone is considering the impact of this Statement on its financial statements.
In December 2007, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued SFAS No.160, "Non-controlling Interest in Consolidated Financial Statements-Statements — and amendment of ARB No. 51”. SFAS No.160 establishes accounting and reporting standards for non-controlling interests, sometimes called minority interests, the portion of equity in a subsidiary not attributable, directly or indirectly, to a parent. SFAS No.160 is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2008. Milestone is considering the impact of this Statement on its financial statements.
In March 2008, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued SFAS No. 161, “Disclosure about Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities — an amendment of FASB No. 133”. This Statement requires enhanced disclosure about an entity’s derivative and hedging activities. The effective date for this Statement is for financial statements issued for fiscal year and interim periods beginning after November 15, 2008. This Statement would not currently impact the financial statements of Milestone Scientific.
In March 2008, the FASB, affirmed the consensus of FASB Staff Position (FSP) Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 14-1 (APB 14-1), Accounting for Convertible Debt Instruments That May Be Settled in Cash upon Conversion (Including Partial Cash Settlement), which applies to all convertible debt instruments that have a net settlement feature; which means that such convertible debt instruments, by their terms, may be settled either wholly or partially in cash upon conversion. FSP APB 14-1 requires issuers of convertible debt instruments that may be settled wholly or partially in cash upon conversion to separately account for the liability and equity components in a manner reflective of the issuer’s nonconvertible debt borrowing rate. Previous guidance provided for accounting for this type of convertible debt instrument entirely as debt. FSP APB 14-1 is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2008 and interim periods within those fiscal years. Milestone is considering the impact of this Statement on its financial statements.
In May 2008, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued SFAS No. 163, “Accounting for Financial Guarantee Insurance Contracts — an interpretation of FASB N0.60. The Statement requires that an insurance enterprise recognize a claim liability prior to an event of default, when the evidence that credit deterioration has occurred in an insured financial obligation. This Statement is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2008, and interim periods within the fiscal year. This Statement would not currently impact the financial statements of Milestone Scientific.
NOTE — 2 BASIC AND DILUTED NET LOSS PER COMMON SHARE
Milestone presents “basic” earnings (loss) per common share applicable to common stockholders and, if applicable, “diluted” earnings (loss) per common share applicable to common stockholders pursuant to the provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 128, “Earnings per Share” (SFAS 128). Basic earnings (loss) per common share is calculated by dividing net income or loss applicable to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding and to be issued during each period. The calculation of diluted earnings per common share is similar to that of basic earnings per common share, except that the denominator is increased to include the number of additional

10


common shares that would have been outstanding if all potentially dilutive common shares, such as those issuable upon the exercise of stock options, warrants, and the conversion of preferred stock were issued during the period.
Since Milestone had net losses for the three and sixnine months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2008 and 2007, the assumed effects of the exercise of outstanding stock options and warrants were not included in the calculation as their effect would have been anti-dilutive. Such outstanding options and warrants totaled 3,535,4123,537,079 at JuneSeptember 30, 2008 and 3,309,7463,298,413 at JuneSeptember 30, 2007.
NOTE — 3 STOCK OPTION PLANS
Effective January 1, 2006 Milestone adopted SFAS No. 123R, “Share-Based Payment, an Amendment of FASB Statement No. 123” (SFAS No. 123R), under the modified-prospective transition method whereby prior periods will not be restated for comparability. SFAS No. 123R requires all share-based payments to employees, including grants of

10


employee stock options, to be recognized in the statements of operations over the service period, as an operating expense, based on the grant-date fair values. Pro-forma disclosure is no longer an alternative. As a result of adopting SFAS No. 123R, Milestone recognizes as compensation expense in its financial statements the unvested portion of existing options granted prior to the effective date and the cost of stock options granted to employees after the effective date based on the fair value of the stock options at grant date. Prior to the adoption of SFAS No. 123R, Milestone accounted for its stock option plans using the intrinsic value method of accounting prescribed by APB Opinion No. 25.
A summary of option activity for employees under the plans as of JuneSeptember 30, 2008, and changes during the sixnine months ended is presented below:

The weighted average grant date fair value of options granted to employees during the sixnine months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2008 was $ 0.89.$0.88. The fair value of the options was estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option pricing model with the following weighted average assumptions: expected life three years, volatility of 322%353% and a risk free interest rate of 3.21%2.88%. A six percent rate of forfeitures is assumed in the calculation of the compensation costs for the period.
Milestone recognizes compensation expense on a straight line basis over the requisite service period. During the sixnine months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2008, Milestone recognized $61,338$81,492 of total compensation cost related to options that vested during the period. As of JuneSeptember 30, 2008, there was $ 146,541$130,700 of total unrecognized compensation cost related to non-vested options which Milestone expects to recognize over a weighted average period of twoone and three quarterone half years.
Expected volatilities are based on historical volatility of Milestone’s common stock over a period commensurate with expected term. Milestone uses historical data to estimate option exercise and employee termination within the valuation model. The expected term of the options granted was estimated using the simplified method as the average of the contractual term and vesting term of the option.
As of JuneSeptember 30, 2008, the Fair Market Value of the Company’s stock was less than the exercise price of the options, therefore there is no aggregate intrinsic value calculated.

During the sixnine months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2008, Milestone recognized $25,477$38,216 of expenses related to non-employee options that vested during the year. The total unrecognized compensation cost related to non-vested options was $ 86,586$73,035 as of JuneSeptember 30, 2008.
As of JuneSeptember 30, 2008, the Fair Market Value of the Company’s stock was less than the exercised price of the options, therefore, there was no aggregate intrinsic value calculated.
In accordance with the provisions of SFAS No.123R, all other issuances of common stock, stock options or other equity instruments to non-employees as consideration for goods or services received by Milestone are accounted for based on the fair value of the equity instruments issued (unless the fair value of the consideration received can be more reliably measured). The fair value of any options or similar equity instruments issued is estimated based on the Black-Scholes option-pricing model, which meets the criteria set forth in SFAS No. 123R, and the assumption that all of the options or other equity instruments will ultimately vest. Such fair value is measured as of an appropriate date pursuant to the guidance in the consensus of the Emerging Issues Task Force (“EITF”) for EITF Issue No. 96-18 (generally, the earlier of the date the other party becomes committed to provide goods or services or the date performance by the other party is complete) and capitalized or expensed as if Milestone had paid cash for the goods or services.
NOTE — 4 CONCENTRATION OF CREDIT RISK
Milestone’s financial instruments that are exposed to concentrations of credit risk consist primarily of cash and trade accounts receivable, and advances to contract manufacturers. Milestone places its cash and cash equivalents with large financial institutions. At times, such investments may be in excess of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation insurance limit. Milestone has not experienced any losses in such accounts and believes it is not exposed to any significant credit risks. Financial instruments which potentially subject Milestone to credit risk consist principally of trade accounts receivable, as Milestone does not require collateral or other security to support customer receivables, and advances to contract manufacturer. Milestone entered into a purchase agreement, in 2004, with a vendor to supply Milestone with 5,000 units ofCompuDent. As part of this agreement, Milestone has a remaining advance of approximately $977,000$842,000 with the vendor for purchase of materials at JuneSeptember 30, 2008. The advance will be credited to Milestone as the goods are delivered. Milestone does not believe that significant credit risk exists with respect to this advance to the contract manufacturer at JuneSeptember 30, 2008.
Milestone closely monitors the extension of credit to its customers while maintaining allowances, if necessary, for potential credit losses. On a periodic basis, Milestone evaluates its accounts receivable and establishes an allowance for doubtful accounts, based on a history of past write-offs and collections and current credit conditions. Management does not believe that significant credit risk exists with respect to accounts receivable at JuneSeptember 30, 2008.
NOTE — 5 LINE OF CREDIT
On June 28, 2007 the Company secured a $1 million line of credit from a stockholder. This borrowing was amended to $1,300,000 as of JuneSeptember 30, 2008 under the same terms and conditions as the original. Borrowings bear interest at 6% per annum, with one year’s interest at 1% payable in advance on each draw. Monies may be drawn by Milestone under the line in multiples of $100,000 upon 5 days’days written notice to you from either Milestone’s Chief Executive Officer or Acting Chief Financial Officer. Monies under the line in excess of $1,000,000 may be drawn in multiples of $25,000. Borrowings may

12


be prepaid at any time in multiples of $100,000, without penalty. All borrowings and interest thereon must be repaid by June 30, 2010, and after the expiration date of the line, may be repaid by Milestone in cash or, at its option, in shares of common stock valued at the lower of $2.00 per share or 80% of the average closing price of its shares during the 20 trading days ending with December 31, 2008. After December 31, 2008, and before June 30, 2010, the lender may convert all or any part of the then outstanding balance and interest thereon into shares of Common Stock at $4.00 per share. Three year warrants exercisable at $5.00 per share, in an amount determined by dividing 50% of the amount borrowed by $5.00 will be issued on each drawdown. There is no facility fee on the line. The warrants have been valued as of each draw down using the Black-Scholes model and are reflected as a discount against the debt incurred under this line of credit. At JuneSeptember 30, 2008 the remaining balance of Debt Discount was $73,251.$65,325. The full amount of the line of credit and amendment, $1.3 million, has been drawn at JuneSeptember 30, 2008. Interest expense on this Line of Credit for the sixthree and nine months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2008 is $49,592.$23,863 and $73,455, respectively. Accrued interest related to this line of credit was $6,000 and $4,000 at September 30 ,2008 and December 31, 2007, respectively. Additionally, the charge for amortization of Debt Discount related to this Line of Credit is $13,696$21,622 for the sixnine month period ended JuneSeptember 30, 2008.

In January 2007, Milestone finalized an Exclusive Distribution and Supply Agreement with Henry Schein, Inc. Henry Schein, Inc. serving as the exclusive distributor ofSTAandCompuDentsystems (and ancillary products) in both North America and Canada, for a one year period. The exclusive period has expired and the Company has entered alternative marketing and distribution agreements.
The Company has informal arrangements with the manufacturer of ourSTA,CompuDentandCompuMed units, one of the principal manufacturers of our handpieces and for those units pursuant to which they manufacture these products under specific purchase orders but without any long-term contract or minimum purchase commitment. The Company has a manufacturing agreement with one of the principal manufacturers of our handpieces pursuant to which they manufacture products under specific purchase orders but without minimum purchase commitments. The Company has established an alternate source of supply for our handpieces in China and other alternate sources of supply exist.
NOTE — 8 COMMITMENTS AND OTHER
Contract Manufacturing Arrangement

13


Milestone has informal arrangements for the manufacture of its products.CompuDent, STAandCompuMedunits are manufactured for Milestone by Tricor Systems, Inc. pursuant to specific purchase orders.The Wanddisposable handpiece is manufactured for Milestone in Mexico pursuant to scheduled production requirements.The WandHandpiece with Needle is supplied to Milestone by the licensee of Milestone’s proprietary consumer dental whitening product, which arranges for its manufacture by manufacturers in China.
The termination of the manufacturing relationship with any of the above manufacturers could have a material adverse effect on Milestone’s ability to produce and sell its products. Although alternate sources of supply exist and new manufacturing relationships could be established, Milestone would need to recover its existing tools or have new tools produced. Establishment of new manufacturing relationships could involve significant expense and delay. Any curtailment or interruption of the supply, whether or not as a result of termination of such a relationship, would adversely affect Milestone.
Other Commitments
Milestone acquired the technology underlying ourCoolBlueProfessional Whitening andIonic White Consumer Whitening Products. Under the terms of a licensing agreement with a third party manufacturer, we will receive licensing fees resulting from the sales of the consumer whitening product. Through December 31, 2006, Milestone paid royalties in connection with the tooth whitening products to a purported holder of patent rights therein. Late in 2006 Milestone received a copy of a patent office filing which appeared to show that the purported owner had relinquished rights to the patent on which royalties had been paid. It is possible that, never-the-less, the purported owner may claim continuing rights to receive royalties or that others may claim that payments are owed in connection with Milestone’s prior sales. Milestone has continued to accrue royalties due, $19,952$20,565 as of JuneSeptember 30, 2008, but has ceased making cash payments. In 2007, Milestone stopped the sale of this product in the United States and has written off the cost of patents relating to this product.
On August 24,Loss on Disposal of Fixed Assets.
Milestone recorded a loss on disposal of fixed assets of $2,741 and $232,259 for the three months ended September 30, 2008 and 2007, Milestone commenced a Declaratory Judgment Action against Milton Hodosh, DMDrespectively, and $2,255 and $232,259 for the nine months ended September 30, 2008 and 2007, respectively. The loss on disposal of fixed assets in 2007 represents the write off of net book value of tooling and other assets originally purchased for the cool blue, whitening, safety wand and other products. The amounts noted above are included in the United States District Court for the District of New Jersey seeking a determination by that Court that neither itsSingle Tooth Anesthesia (STA) Systemnor itsCompuDentsystem infringed claims set forth in United States Patent No. 6,159,161 by Dr. Hodosh on July 8, 1998 and issued by the United States Patent Office on December 12, 2000. Milestone’s basic patents covering these systems were issued by the United States Patent Office in January 1993. Subsequent to the commencement of Milestone’s action for Declaratory Judgment, Dr. Hodosh commenced a patent infringement suit in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York. Milestone has received opinions from patent counsel, not involved in the litigation, to the effect that neither theSTA Systemnor theCompuDentsystems infringe any of the claims of Dr. Hodosh’s patents. Milestone believes that it has meritorious defenses to Dr. Hodosh’s action and it intends to vigorously defend this law suit. The case is currently in the discovery phase.selling, general administrative expenses.
NOTE — 9 SUBSEQUENT EVENTS
Subsequent to June 30, 2008, theThe Company borrowed an additional $200,000$250,000 from a stockholder in October 2008. The borrowings agreement requires a one percent fee at the same shareholder that has loaneddate of borrowing and an interest rate of six percent per annum, payable at the Company $1,300,000 prior to this loan.

Subsequent to September 30, 2008, the Company acquired additional patent rights with respect to painless anesthetic injections — specifically rights related to controlling the flow rate or pressure used in providing these injections — through the issuance of 260,000 shares of restricted common stock. In connection with this acquisition, Milestone terminated its Declaratory Judgment action against Dr. Hodosh related to claimed infringements of his patent rights and Dr. Hodosh agreed to terminate his existing infringement action against the Company.

ITEM 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis and Plan of Operation.
     The following discussions of our financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and the notes to those statements included elsewhere in this Form 10-Q. Certain statements in this discussion and elsewhere in this report constitute forward-looking statements, within the meaning of section 21E of the Exchange Act, that involve risks and uncertainties. Our actual results may differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements. See “Risk Factors” on Part II. ITEM 1A of this Form 10-Q.
OVERVIEW
     The following discussion of our financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and the notes to those statements included elsewhere in this Form 10-Q. This discussion may contain forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties. Our actual results may differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements as a result of certain factors, such as those set forth in our Form-10KSBForm 10-KSB for the year ended December 31, 2007.
     Through strict expense discipline and the implementation of key operational initiatives during the first sixnine months of 2008, the Company was able to make considerable progress with its efforts to achieve two primary strategic business goals for the year:
  Optimizing our tactical approach to product sales and marketing in order to significantlymaterially increase penetration of the global dental and medical markets with our proprietary, patented Computer-Controlled Local Anesthesia Delivery (C-CLAD) solution, theSTA™STA System; and
 
  Identifying and pursuing strategic collaborations with third parties to jointly develop new products utilizing ourCompuFlo®pressure force technology for innovative new dental and medical applications.
     In order to succeed in achieving these goals, it is essential that we have the best people possible. In January of 2008, Joseph D’Agostino joined Milestone as our Acting Chief Financial Officer, bringing our Company the skill, talent and experience that are necessary to help us grow and meet critical business plan objectives. HisFollowing a nine month performance assessment by the Board of Directors, Mr. D’Agostino was officially named Milestone’s Chief Financial Officer in October of this year.
     The addition of Joseph D’Agostino to the senior management team has served to strongly complement the hiring of Robert Presutti, who joined Milestone as Vice President of Sales and Marketing in September 2007, and the appointment by our2007. The Board of Directors of former Bayer senior executiveinstalled Joe Martin as our new CEO and Director in December 2007. Joe served as an executive of Bayer for 13 years.
     Through oversight and direction provided by ourThe new leadership team has devoted a great deal of energy and focus on improving all areas of operations. Milestone has succeeded in cutting its total operating expenses by 26% during24%, from $5,457,473 to $4,158,637, in the first halfnine months of 2008, whenthis year compared to the prior year. Moreover, we continuesame nine-month period in 2007. Additionally, the operating losses have been reduced from $2,592,701 to seek and identify opportunities to achieve even greater cost and productivity efficiencies in all areas of our operations.
     In the second quarter, we again succeeded in reducing existing product inventories. In addition, we are also actively identifying new manufacturing sources to expand our instrument manufacturing capacity, thus further reducing our production costs. These efforts, along with other planned initiatives, continue to enable Milestone to reach and sustain profitability, assuming we persist in increasing revenues by executing our sales support, branding and marketing programs on a worldwide basis.
     In$1,187,137. During the first sixnine months of this year product inventories were reduced by almost 50%, from $1,636,744 to $845,297. During the same period, accounts payables have been reduced by 55%, from $1,855,835 to $828,374. However, our debt increased by $500,000 during the nine months ended September 30, 2008.
New Messaging Platform
     Milestone has continued to leverage the product and market intelligence we derived from in-depth customer and dental industry surveying that we conducted in late 2007, to assess and evaluate pricing, positioning and marketing strategies related to our innovative dental injection solution, theSTA System.2007. The insight gained from these studies led management to define and implement a comprehensive new messaging platform for theSTA Systemcreated to emphasize key benefits that Milestone has discovered is of most value to dental professionals. This refined product messaging was launched in January 20082008.
     Based on the fact that Milestone continues to achieve its month-over-month revenue and has subsequently resultedcash flow objectives in a successionkeeping with management’s plan of record monthlyexecution and long term growth strategy, the Company believes its refined product

16


positioning will continue to resonate with dental professionals worldwide, helping to generate increasingly robust sales results for theSTA System.within our independent distributor network.
Industry Recognition
     A key 2008 event for Milestone was the first International C-CLAD Summit we sponsoredhosted in New Orleans this past February, where many of the dental industry’s most prominent and respected authorities assembled to review, discuss and

15


explore opportunities for theSTA System. A monographpublication summarizing the Summit’s proceedings was issued in early June 2008. Specifically, there was consensus among panel participants agreeing that use of theSTA Systemprovides the best way to administer a Palatal Injection and Intraligamentary Injection; agreement that theSTAis the instrument of choice to minimize pain disruptive behavior; and unanimous agreement that theSTA Systemshould become “the standard of care for administering anesthesia by dental practitioners.”
     In April 2008, theSTA Systemwas recognized as a winner of the 2008 Medical Design Excellence Award in the Dental Instruments, Equipment and Supplies product category. Of the 33 products that received an Excellence Award this year, Milestone’sSTA Systemwas one of only two winning products that serve the dental community. This honor followed theSTA Systembeing named in July 2007 as one of the Top 100 Products of the Year byDentistry Today, one of the dental industry’s most respected and widely read publications.
Domestic Dental Distribution Network
     In the second quarter of this year, we turned our attention to expanding Milestone’s global network of dental distributors, with a goal of increasing market awareness and promoting stronger sales growth of theSTA System.
     On the domestic front, the Company elected to forego renewing the exclusive marketing and distribution agreement originally signed in early 2007 with Henry Schein, Inc., the largest distributor of healthcare products and services to office-based practitioners in the combined North American and European markets. Rather, the Company granted Schein non-exclusive distribution rights to both market andmarkets to sell theSTA Systemand related disposable hand pieces to dental professionals in the United States and Canada; and in June of this year, welcomed Patterson Dental Supply as a non-exclusive distributor, as well. Patterson has the largest direct sales force in the industry, totaling approximately 1,400 sales representatives and equipment/software specialists addressing the needs of the United States’States and Canadian dental markets.
     On July 16, 2008, Milestone announced that leading independent dental supply companies — Benco Dental, Burkhart Dental, Inc., and Goetze Dental — also joined the Company’s growing domestic distribution network under non-exclusive agreements.
     Founded in 1930, Benco is the largest independently owned dental supply company in the U.S., and one of the nation’s fastest growing dental distributors. Burkhard Dental has thrived and prospered as a family owned and managed dental supply company for 120 years, now serving over 5,000 dental customers in the Western U.S. from offices in Alaska, Colorado, Oregon, Arizona, California, Nevada, Texas, Utah and Washington. Originally established in 1884 as the St. Joseph Drug Company, Goetze Dental has also endured as a family-owned and managed independent dental supplier for five generations, supplyinggenerations. Currently, the Company markets a broad range of leading dental products and services to a customer base comprised of more than 10,000 dental professionals operating primarily in nine U.S. Midwestern states.
     In total,August 2008, Milestone added Atlanta Dental Supply to its U.S. distribution network. Atlanta Dental is an industry leading employee-owned dental supply and services company based in Duluth, Georgia that has been serving the U.S. Southeast dental community for 140 years.
     We are now actively engaged in training and providing ongoing sales and marketing support to more than 2,3002,450 independent sales representatives serving the U.S. and Canada.Canadian markets. As of September 30, 2008, Milestone had completed initial training of approximately 50% of Patterson’s national sales force, as well as a majority of the representatives employed by Benco, Burkhard and Goetze. Training of Atlanta Dental reps commenced in the fourth quarter of 2008.
International Dental Distribution Network

17


     In June, the Company granted exclusive marketing and distribution rights to two foreign distributors — Istrodent Pty Ltd AB, a leading distributor serving the Southern Africa dental market; and Unident AB, who is now advocating sales of theSTA Systemto dentists in the Scandinavian countries of Denmark, Sweden, Norway and Iceland. Both companies have proven to be among Milestone’s strongest marketing allies outside of the U.S., achieving notable sales performance in their respective regions while supporting our historical worldwide marketing efforts forThe Wand.
     At the FDI Annual World Dental Congress held in Sweden in late September, Unident formally introduced theSTA Systemto the European dental community and enjoyed a strong, favorable response from show attendees.
For the remainder of 2008, managementthe year, the Company will concentratecontinue to focus on expanding Milestone’s worldwide sales and marketing resources to accelerateSTA Systemsales momentum withinaround the U.S. andworld. Particular emphasis will be on establishing defined distribution channels in Canada and around the world.South America. Moreover, we will continue reinforcing and supporting our growing global independent sales and distribution network through training, Milestone-sponsored advertising and marketing campaigns, trade show participation and creative sales incentive programs. We anticipate that our primary challenge going forward will be centered on spreading the ‘right’ message about theSTA, helping to successfully position the instrument as the widely recognized new standard of care for dental anesthesia.
New Product Development and Commercialization
     In keeping with the Company’s stated 2008 goal for leveraging our patentedCompuFlotechnology in new medical applications, Milestone’s management team has also continued to identify and pursue opportunities to form strategic collaborations in the areas of self-administered drug delivery, arthritic joint pain management and epidurals.
     In November 2007, we

16


entered into a collaborative agreement with a globally diversified healthcare company to conduct a feasibility study evaluating the potential application of ourCompuFlotechnology for injecting certain medicaments produced by this leading company. We have successfully completed the initial study and are now hoping to leverage its findings to progress strategic partnering and product development opportunities with them.
     As we progress through to year end, Milestone will maintain our relentless pursuit ofCompuFlo-based product development prospects that are deemed the most promising and commercially viable, and offer the greatest potential for near term strategic alliancesallowing us to fully realize our product development and meaningful revenue contribution.commercialization ambitions.

     The Company earned gross profits of $955,453$1,077,817 and $1,893,682$2,971,500 for the three and sixnine months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2008, respectively. However, our revenues and related gross profits have not been sufficient to support our overhead,

18


new product introduction and research and development expenses. Although the Company anticipates expending funds for research and development in 2008, these amounts will vary based on the operating results for each quarter. The Company has incurred operating losses and negative cash flows from operating activities since its inception. The Company is actively pursuing the generation of positive cash flows from operating activities through increase in revenue, assessment of current contracts and current negotiations and reduction in operating expenses; however the Company does not have sufficient cash reserves to meet all of its anticipated obligations for the next twelve months.
Technology Rights
     The technology underlying ourSafetyWandandCompuFlotechnology and an improvement to the controls forCompuDentwere developed by our Director of Clinical Affairs and assigned to us. We purchased this technology pursuant to an agreement dated January 1, 2005, for 43,424 shares of restricted common stock and $145,000 in cash, paid on April 1, 2005. In addition, our Director of Clinical Affairs will receive additional deferred contingent payments of 2.5% of our total sales of productsCompDentand Wand Plus units using some of these technologies, and 5% of our total sales of productsSTA units and handpieces using some of our other technologies. If products produced by third parties use any of these technologies, under a license from Milestone, then he will also receive the corresponding percentage of the consideration received by us for such sale or license.
Summary of Significant Accounting Policies, Judgments and Estimates
     Our discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations are based upon our financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The preparation of these financial statements requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities.

17


The most significant estimates relate to the allowance for doubtful accounts, inventory valuation, cash flow assumptions regarding evaluations for impairment of long-lived assets and valuation allowances on deferred tax assets. Actual results could differ from those estimates.On an on-going basis, we evaluate our estimates, including those related to accounts receivable, inventories, stock-based compensation, and contingencies. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions 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 those estimates under different assumptions or conditions. See NOTE 1.
FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Accounts Receivable
     The realization of Accounts Receivable will have a significant impact on the Company. Consequently, Milestone estimates losses resulting from the inability of its customers to make payments for amounts billed. The collectability of outstanding amounts is continually assessed.
Inventories
     Inventory costing, obsolescence and physical control is significantly important to the on-going operation of the business. Inventories principally consist of finished goods and component parts stated at the lower of cost (first-in, first-out method) or market. Inventory quantities on hand are reviewed on a quarterly basis and a provision for excess and obsolete inventory is recorded if required based on past and expected future sales.
Impairment of Long-Lived Assets
     The long lived assets of the Company, principally patents and trademarks are the base features of the business. We review long-lived assets for impairment whenever circumstances and situations change such that there is an indication that the carrying amounts may not be recoverable. The carrying value of the asset is evaluated in relation to the operating performance and future undiscounted cash flows of the underlying assets.
Revenue Recognition
     Revenue from product sales is recognized net of discounts and allowances to our domestic distributor on the date of arrival of the goods at the customer’s location as shipments are FOB destination. Shipments to our international distributor are FOB our warehouse and revenue is therefore recognized on shipment. In both cases the price to the buyer is fixed and the collectability is reasonably assured. Further, we have no obligation on these sales for any post installation,

19


set-up or maintenance, these being the responsibility of the buyer. Customer acceptance is considered made at delivery. Our only obligation after sale is the normal commercial warranty against manufacturing defects if the alleged defective unit is returned within the warranty period.
     Royalty income is recognized as earned based on reports received from the licensee and related royalty expense is accrued during the same period.

There is no assurance that the Company will be able to achieve positive operating cash flows or that traditional capital can be raised on terms and conditions satisfactory to the Company.

Reference is made to Item 2 of Part I of this quarterly report. “Management Discussion and Analysis or Plan of Operation-Forward Looking Statements”.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures
The Company’s management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, has evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e)) as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based upon that evaluation, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that the disclosure controls and procedures as of JuneSeptember 30, 2008 are effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the reports the Company files or submits under the Exchange Act 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 the Company’s management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, to allow timely decisions regarding disclosure.
Management’s Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting
There have been no significant changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting identified in connection with the evaluation that occurred during the Company’s last fiscal quarter that have materially affected, or that are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal controls over financial reporting. It should be noted that any system of controls, however well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance and not absolute assurance, that the objectives of the system are met. In addition, the design of any control system is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events. Because of these and other inherent limitations, on control systems, there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving the stated goals under all potential future conditions, regardless of how remote.

ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS
     The following factors may affect the growth and profitability of Milestone and should be considered by any prospective purchaser or current holder of Milestone’s securities:
We have no history of profitable operations. Continuing losses could exhaust our capital resources and force us to discontinue operations.
For the sixnine months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2008 and 2007 our revenues were approximately $2.9$4.8 million and $4.1$5.3 million respectively. In addition, we have had losses for each year since the commencement of operations, including net losses of approximately $1,089,000$1,275,735 and $1,604,000$2,585,823 for the nine months ended September 30, 2008 and 2007, respectively. At JuneSeptember 30, 2008, we had an accumulated deficit of approximately $57.1$57.3 million. At JuneSeptember 30, 2008, the Company had cash and cash equivalents $260,643$286,020 and working capital of $1,487,623.$1,342,830. Additionally, the Company secured a Line of Credit in the aggregate amount of $1.3 million from a stockholder as of JuneSeptember 30, 2008, as discussed in Note 5. SubsequentThe Company borrowed $200,000 from the stockholder noted above in July 2008. The borrowings require a one percent fee at the date of borrowing and an interest rate of six percent per annum, payable at the maturity of the note. The note is due in January 2009 and such amount is included as a current liability in the financial statements at September 30, 2008. In October 2008, subsequent to June 30, 2008, the Line of Credit was increased by $200,000 to $1,500,000.Financial Statement date, the Company borrowed an additional $250,000 from the stockholder above. The terms and maturity date of this borrowing is identical to the $200,000 note are not finalized at this date, but the terms of the new borrowing are not anticipated to be substantially different from the previous loan agreement.in July 2008. The Company is actively pursuing the generation of positive cash flows from operating activities through increases in revenues based upon management’s assessment of present contracts and current negotiations and reductions in operating expenses; however, the Company does not now have sufficient cash reserves to meet all of its anticipated obligations for the next 12 months. The Company anticipates a needHowever, the internal sales growth targets have been achieved for a higher levelthe first nine months of marketingthis year and it is anticipated that the future sales efforts that at present it cannot fund.growth targets will be achieved. If the Company is unable to generate positive cash flows from its operating activities it will need to raise additional capital. There is no assurance that the Company will be able to achieve positive operating cash flows or that additional capital can be raised on the terms and conditions satisfactory to the Company if at all. If additional capital is required and it cannot be raised,future sales growth targets are not achieved, then the Company would be forced to curtail its development activities, reduce marketing expenses for existing dental products and/or adopt other cost savings measures , any of which might negatively affect the Company’s operating results.
     The Company’s recurring losses and negative operating cash flows raise substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern.
     There are no other changes to our risk factors from those disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-KSB for the year ended December 31, 2007.
