(Unaudited)

NOTE A - ORGANIZATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

ORGANIZATION

Pharma-Bio Serv, Inc. (“Pharma-Bio”) is a Delaware corporation organized on January 14, 2004. Pharma-Bio is the parent company of Pharma-Bio Serv PR, Inc. (“Pharma-PR”), Pharma Serv, Inc. (“Pharma-Serv”), and Scienza Labs, Inc. (currently inactive) (“Scienza Labs”), each a Puerto Rico corporation, Pharma-Bio Serv US, Inc. (“Pharma-US”), a Delaware corporation, Pharma-Bio Serv SL (“Pharma-Spain”), a Spanish limited liability company, and Pharma-Bio Serv Brasil Servicos de Consultoria Ltda. (“Pharma-Brazil”), a Brazilian limited liability company. Pharma-Bio, Pharma-PR, Pharma-Serv, Scienza Labs, Pharma-US, Pharma-Spain and Pharma-Brazil are collectively referred to as the “Company.” The Company operates in Puerto Rico, the United States, ~~Spain~~Europe and Brazil under the name of Pharma-Bio Serv and is engaged in providing technical compliance consulting service.

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The condensed consolidated balance sheet of the Company as of October 31, 2020 is derived from audited consolidated financial statements but does not include all disclosures required by generally accepted accounting principles. The unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements, include all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments, which are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair presentation of the financial position and results of operations and cash flows for the interim periods. The results of operations for the ~~three~~six months ended ~~January 31,~~April 30, 2021 are not necessarily indicative of expected results for the full 2021 fiscal year.

The accompanying financial data as of ~~January 31,~~April 30, 2021, and for the three-month ~~period~~and six-month periods ended ~~January 31,~~April 30, 2021 and 2020 has been prepared by us, without audit, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). Certain information and footnote disclosures normally contained in financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles have been condensed or omitted. These condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes contained in our audited Consolidated Financial Statements and the notes thereto for the fiscal year ended October 31, 2020.

Consolidation

The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and all of its wholly owned subsidiaries. All intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation.

Segments

The Company operates in three reportable business segments: (i) Puerto Rico technical compliance consulting, (ii) United States technical compliance consulting, and (iii) Europe technical compliance consulting. Accordingly, the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements are presented to show these three reportable segments.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the condensed consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. Actual results may differ from these estimates.

~~Fair Value of Financial Instruments~~

Accounting standards have established a fair value hierarchy that requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. A financial instrument’s categorization within the fair value hierarchy is based upon the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. Accounting standards have established three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value:

~~-6-~~-7-

~~Level 1~~:		~~Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities.~~
~~Level 2:~~		Observable inputs other than Level 1 prices such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities, quoted prices in markets with insufficient volume or infrequent transactions (less active markets), or model-derived valuations in which all significant inputs are observable or can be derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities.
~~Level 3~~:		~~Prices or valuation techniques that require inputs that are both significant to the fair value measurement and unobservable (supported by little or no market activity).~~

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The carrying value of the Company's financial instruments (excluding obligations under finance leases), cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued liabilities, are considered reasonable estimates of fair value due to their liquidity or short-term nature. Management believes, based on current rates, that the fair value of its obligations under finance leases approximates the carrying amount.

Revenue Recognition

The Company records revenue under Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers. We evaluate our revenue contracts with customers based on the five-step model under ASC 606: (i) Identify the contract with the customer; (ii) Identify the performance obligations in the contract; (iii) Determine the transaction price; (iv) Allocate the transaction price to separate performance obligations; and (v) Recognize revenue when (or as) each performance obligation is satisfied.

Revenue is primarily derived from: (1) time and material contracts (representing approximately 99% of total revenues), and (2) short-term fixed-fee contracts or "not to exceed" contracts (representing approximately 1% of total revenues). Time and material contracts are typically based on the number of hours worked at contractually agreed upon rates. These service contracts relate to work which have no alternative use and for which the Company has an enforceable right to payment for the work completed to date. As a result, revenue is recognized over time when or as the Company transfers control of the promised products or services (known as performance obligations) to its customers. Revenue for short term fixed fee contracts or “not to exceed” contracts is recognized similarly, except that certain milestones also have to be reached before revenue is recognized. If the Company determines that a contract will result in a loss, the Company recognizes the estimated loss in the period in which such determination is made.

Cash Equivalents

For purposes of the consolidated statements of cash flows, cash equivalents include investments in a money market obligations trust that is registered under the U.S. Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, and liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less.

Accounts Receivable

Accounts receivable are recorded at their estimated realizable value. Accounts are deemed past due when payment has not been received within the stated time period. The Company's policy is to review individual past due amounts periodically and write off amounts for which all collection efforts are deemed to have been exhausted. Due to the nature of the Company’s customers, bad debts are mainly accounted for using the direct write-off method whereby an expense is recognized only when a specific account is determined to be uncollectible. The effect of using this method approximates that of the allowance method.

Income Taxes

The Company follows an asset and liability approach method of accounting for income taxes. This method measures deferred income taxes by applying enacted statutory rates in effect at the balance sheet date to the differences between the tax basis of assets and liabilities and their reported amounts on the financial statements. The resulting deferred tax assets or liabilities are adjusted to reflect changes in tax laws as they occur. A valuation allowance is provided when it is more likely than not that a deferred tax asset will not be realized.

-8-

The Company follows guidance from the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) related to Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes, which includes a two-step approach to recognizing, de-recognizing and measuring uncertain tax positions. As of ~~January 31,~~April 30, 2021, the Company had no significant uncertain tax positions that would be reduced as a result of a lapse of the applicable statute of limitations.

~~-7-~~

Property and Equipment

Owned property and equipment are stated at cost. Vehicles under finance leases are stated at the lower of fair market value or net present value of the minimum lease payments at the inception of the leases.

Depreciation of owned assets are provided for, when placed in service, in amounts sufficient to relate the cost of depreciable assets to operations over their estimated service lives, using straight-line basis. Assets under finance leases are amortized over the lease term. While expenditures for repairs and maintenance are expensed when incurred. As of ~~January 31,~~April 30, 2021 and October 31, 2020, the accumulated depreciation amounted to ~~$522,913~~$508,836 and $501,489, respectively.

Leases

We categorize leases at their inception as either operating or finance leases. The Company leases include an ~~operational~~operating lease for office space and a finance lease agreement for a ~~vehicle.~~vehicle, which was disposed on April 2021. The adoption of the ~~new~~ standard resulted in the operating lease being included in operating lease right-of-use assets, current operating lease liabilities, and long-term operating lease liabilities in our condensed consolidated balance ~~sheets~~.sheets. However, the adoption of the ~~new~~ standard did not have an impact on the Company’s beginning balance of retained earnings, consolidated statement of operations or statement of cash flows. Finance leases are included in net property and equipment, current installments of long-term debt, and long-term debt in our condensed consolidated balance sheets. ~~The most significant impact was the recognition of right-of-use assets and lease liabilities on account of the Company’s operating leases.~~ As of ~~January 31,~~April 30, 2021 and October 31, 2020, the total right-of-use assets related to the Company’s operating leases were ~~$790,561~~$756,139 and $846,714, respectively, As of ~~January 31,~~April 30, 2021 operating lease liabilities current and non-current were approximately ~~$166,637~~$169,516 and ~~$595,072,~~$559,873, respectively, while as of October 31, 2020 operating lease liabilities current and non-current were approximately $162,917 and ~~$629,979.~~$629,979, respectively.

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets

The Company evaluates for impairment its long-lived assets to be held and used, and long-lived assets to be disposed of, whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Based on management estimates, no impairment of the long-lived assets was present as of ~~January 31,~~April 30, 2021 and October 31, 2020.

Stock-based Compensation

Stock-based compensation expense is recognized in the consolidated financial statements based on the fair value of the awards granted. Stock-based compensation cost is measured at the grant date based on the fair value of the award and is recognized as expense over the requisite service period, which generally represents the vesting period, and includes an estimate of awards that will be forfeited. The Company calculates the fair value of stock options using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model at the grant date, while for restricted stock units the fair market value of the units is determined by Company’s share market value at grant date. Excess tax benefits related to stock-based compensation are reflected as cash flows from financing activities rather than cash flows from operating activities. The Company has not recognized such cash flows from financing activities since there has been no tax benefit related to the stock-based compensation.

Earnings Per Share of Common Stock

Basic earnings per share of common stock is calculated by dividing net earnings by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding. Diluted earnings per share includes the dilution of common stock equivalents, which include principally shares that may be issued upon the exercise of warrants, stock option and restricted stock unit awards.

The diluted weighted average shares of common stock outstanding were calculated using the treasury stock method for the respective periods.

Foreign Operations

The functional currency of the Company’s foreign subsidiaries is its local currency. The assets and liabilities of the Company’s foreign subsidiaries are translated into U.S. dollars at exchange rates in effect at the balance sheet date. Income and expense items are translated at the average exchange rates prevailing during the period. The cumulative translation effect for subsidiaries using a functional currency other than the U.S. dollar is included as a cumulative translation adjustment in stockholders’ equity and as a component of comprehensive income.

-9-

The Company’s intercompany accounts are typically denominated in the functional currency of the foreign subsidiary. Gains and losses resulting from the remeasurement of intercompany receivables that the Company considers to be of a long-term investment nature are recorded as a cumulative translation adjustment in stockholders’ equity and as a component of comprehensive income, while gains and losses resulting from the remeasurement of intercompany receivables from those international subsidiaries for which the Company anticipates settlement in the foreseeable future are recorded in the consolidated statements of operations.

~~-8-~~

Subsequent Events

The Company has evaluated subsequent events through the filing date of this report. The Company has determined that there are no events occurring in this period that required disclosure or ~~adjustment,~~ ~~except as disclosed in the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements.~~adjustment.

Reclassifications

Certain reclassifications have been made to the ~~January 31,~~April 30, 2020 condensed consolidated financial statements to conform them to the ~~January 31,~~April 30, 2021 condensed consolidated financial statements presentation. Such reclassifications do not affect net income as previously reported.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

Recent accounting pronouncements pending adoption not discussed above or in the Form 10-K for the year ended October 31, 2020 are either not applicable or will not have or are not expected to have a material impact on us.

NOTE B – PROMISSORY NOTE ~~RECEIVABLE~~

On September 17, 2018, the Company sold substantially all of its Lab business assets (the “Laboratory Assets”). Upon the completion of the Laboratory Assets sale, the Company received, as partial payment, a $3 million Promissory Note from the purchaser. The Promissory Note was composed of two tranches: (i) Tranche A for $2 million and secured with lab equipment and (ii) Tranche B for $1 million which was unsecured. The interest rate accrual was 3% for Tranche A and 5% for Tranche B. The Promissory ~~Note~~Note's final payment installment of $1,250,000 from Tranche A was collected in November 2020.

NOTE C – LOANS

On April 23, 2020, Pharma-PR, Pharma-Serv, and Pharma-US (collectively, the “~~Borrowers~~”“Borrowers”) entered into loan agreements and related promissory notes to receive U.S. Small Business Administration Loans. These loans were originated pursuant to the Paycheck Protection Program (the “~~PPP~~”“PPP”) established under the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (the “~~CARES Act~~”“CARES Act”), and in the aggregate amount of $1,931,700 (the “~~Loan Proceeds~~”“Loan Proceeds”). The Borrowers received the Loan Proceeds on April 23, 2020. These SBA Loans terms follow the CARES Act provisions and the corresponding regulations issued by the ~~SBA~~. SBA. Under regulations established by the Small Business Administration, the Company may seek forgiveness of the SBA Loans.

NOTE D - INCOME TAXES

On December 22, 2017, Public Law 115-97, commonly known as the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017 (the “Tax Reform”), was enacted. The Tax Reform imposed a mandatory one-time transition tax (the “Transition Tax”) over foreign subsidiaries undistributed earnings and profits (“E&Ps”) earned prior to a date set by the statute. Based on the Company’s E&Ps, the Transition Tax was determined to be approximately $2.7 million. The Transition Tax liability must be paid over a period of eight years which started with the Company’s second quarter of fiscal year 2019. In the past, most of these E&Ps’ were not repatriated since such E&Ps’ were considered to be reinvested indefinitely in the foreign location, therefore no US tax liability was incurred unless the E&Ps were repatriated as a dividend. After December 31, 2017, the Tax Reform has established a 100% tax exemption on the foreign-source portion of dividends received attributable to E&Ps, with certain limitations. However, foreign subsidiaries earnings are subject to U.S. tax at a reduced rate of 10.5%.

In June 2011, Pharma-Bio, Pharma-PR and Pharma-Serv obtained a Grant of Industrial Tax Exemption pursuant to the terms and conditions set forth in Act No. 73 of May 28, 2008 (“the Grant”) issued by the Puerto Rico Industrial Development Company (“PRIDCO”). The Grant was effective as of November 1, 2009 and covers a fifteen-year period. The Grant provides relief on various Puerto Rico taxes, including income tax, with certain limitations, for most of the activities carried on within Puerto Rico, including those that are for services to parties located outside of Puerto Rico. Industrial Development Income (“IDI”) covered under the Grant are subject to a fixed income tax rate of 4%. In addition, IDI earnings distributions accumulated since November 1, 2009 are exempt from Puerto Rico earnings distribution tax.

-10-

Puerto Rico operations not covered in the exempt activities of the Grant are subject to Puerto Rico income tax at a maximum tax rate of 37.5% as provided by the 1994 Puerto Rico Internal Revenue Code, as amended. The operations carried out in the United States by the Company’s subsidiaries, is taxed in the United States at a maximum regular federal income tax rate of 21%.

~~-9-~~

Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are computed for differences between the consolidated financial statements and tax bases of assets and liabilities that will result in taxable or deductible amounts in the future, based on enacted tax laws and rates applicable to the periods in which the differences are expected to affect taxable income.

Pharma-Spain has unused operating losses which result in a potential deferred tax asset. However, an allowance has been provided covering the total amount of such balance since it is uncertain whether the net operating losses can be used to offset future taxable income before their expiration dates. Realization of future tax benefits related to a deferred tax asset is dependent on many factors, including the company’s ability to generate taxable income. Accordingly, the income tax benefit will be recognized when realization is determined to be more probable than not. Pharma-Spain net operating loss is available to offset future taxable income through 2035.

The Company files income tax returns in the United States (federal and various states jurisdictions), Puerto Rico, Ireland, Spain and Brazil. The 2016 (2015 for Puerto Rico) through 2019 tax years are open and may be subject to potential examination in one or more jurisdictions. Currently, the Company has no federal, state, Puerto Rico or foreign income tax examination.

NOTE F – EQUITY TRANSACTIONS

On June 13, 2014, the Board of Directors of the Company authorized the Company to repurchase up to two million shares of its outstanding common stock (the “Repurchase Program”). The timing, manner, price and amount of any repurchases under the Repurchase Program will be at the discretion of the Company, subject to the requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and related rules. The Repurchase Program does not oblige the Company to repurchase any shares and it may be modified, suspended or terminated at any time and for any reason. No shares will be repurchased under the Repurchase Program directly from directors or officers of the Company. Since April 2020, the Company suspended purchases under the Repurchase ~~Program to conserve cash due to the economic uncertainty caused by the coronavirus pandemic.~~Program. As of ~~January 31,~~April 30, 2021, a total of 341,154 shares of the Company’s common stock were purchased under the Repurchase Program for an aggregate amount of $331,306.

On January 5, 2021 the Board of Directors of the Company declared a cash dividend of $0.075 per common share for shareholders of record as of the close of business on January 25, 2021. Accordingly, an aggregate dividend payment of $1,727,364 was paid on February 5, 2021.

NOTE G - CONCENTRATIONS OF RISK

Cash and cash equivalents

The Company’s domestic cash and cash equivalents consist of cash deposits in FDIC insured banks (substantially covered by FDIC insurance by the spread of deposits in multiple FDIC insured banks), a money market obligations trust registered under the US Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, and U.S. Treasury securities with maturities of three months or less. In the foreign markets we serve, we also maintain cash deposits in foreign banks, which have no specific insurance. No losses have been experienced or are expected on these accounts.

Accounts receivable and revenues

Management deems all of its accounts receivable to be fully collectible, and, as such, does not maintain any allowances for uncollectible receivables.

The Company's revenues, and the related receivables, are concentrated in the pharmaceutical industry in Puerto Rico, the United States, Spain and Brazil. Although a few customers represent a significant source of revenue, the Company’s functions are not a continuous process, accordingly, the client base for which the services are typically rendered, on a project-by-project basis, changes regularly.

The Company provided a substantial portion of its services to six customers, which accounted for 10% or more of its revenues in either of the three-month and six-month periods ended April 30, 2021 and 2020. During the three months ended April 30, 2021, revenues from these customers were 22.9%, 13.5%, 11.9%, 9.2%, 4.4% and 0.0%, or a total of 61.9%, as compared to the same period last year of 15.3%, 12.3%, 0.0%, 11.0%, 8.0%, and 25.8%, or a total of 72.4%, respectively. During the six months ended April 30, 2021, revenues from these customers were 21.4%, 11.9%, 10.1%, 12.4%, 5.5% and 0.1%, or a total of 61.4%, as compared to the same period last year of 14.9%, 10.8%, 0.1%, 12.3%, 10.4% and 21.7%, or a total of 70.2%, respectively. At April 30, 2021, amounts due from these customers represented 85.9% of the Company’s total accounts receivable balance. This customer information is based on revenues earned from said customers at the segment level because in management’s opinion contracts by segments are totally independent of each other, and therefore such information is more meaningful to the reader.

At the global level, six global groups of affiliated companies accounted for 10% or more of its revenues in either of the three-month and six-month periods ended April 30, 2021 and 2020. During the three months ended April 30, 2021, aggregate revenues from these global groups of affiliated companies were 22.9%, 13.5%, 11.9%, 11.8%, 4.4% and 0.0%, or a total of 64.5%, as compared to the same period last year for 15.3%, 12.3%, 0.0%, 13.7%, 8.0% and 25.8%, or a total of 75.1%, respectively. During the six months ended April 30, 2021, aggregate revenues from these global group of affiliated companies were 21.4%, 11.9%, 10.1%, 14.8%, 5.5% and 0.1%, or a total of 63.8%, as compared to the same period last year for 14.9%, 10.8%, 0.1%, 15.2%, 10.4% and 21.7%, or a total of 73.1%, respectively. At April 30, 2021, amounts due from these global groups of affiliated companies represented 87.3% of total accounts receivable balance.

As of April 30, 2021, one of the Company’s customers (representing 5.5% of revenues during the six months ended April 30, 2021) owes the Company approximately $5.2 million, which represents approximately 22.2% of the Company’s total working capital. A significant portion of the customer’s funding comes from different financing sourcing. Management estimates that collectability of the account is reasonably assured, accordingly, no provision for losses has been recorded in the financial statements.

NOTE GH - SEGMENT DISCLOSURES

The Company’s segments are based on the organizational structure for which financial results are regularly evaluated by the Company’s chief operating decision maker to determine resource allocation and assess performance. Each reportable segment is managed by its own management team and reports to executive management. The Company has three reportable segments: (i) Puerto Rico technical compliance consulting, (ii) United States technical compliance consulting, and (iii) Europe technical compliance consulting. These reportable segments provide services primarily to the pharmaceutical, chemical, medical device and biotechnology industries in their respective markets.

The following table presents information about the reported revenue from services and earnings from operations of the Company for the three-month and six-month periods ended in ~~January 31,~~April 30, 2021 and 2020. There is no intersegment revenue for the mentioned periods. Corporate expenses that support the operating units have been allocated to the segments. Asset information by reportable segment is not presented, since the Company does not produce such information internally, nor does it use such data to manage its business.

Accordingly, depreciation expense and acquisition of property and equipment, as presented in the statements of cash flows are mainly related to the corporate ~~offices.~~headquarters.

~~NOTE H - CONCENTRATIONS OF RISK~~

~~Cash and cash equivalents~~

The Company’s domestic cash and cash equivalents consist of cash deposits in FDIC insured banks (substantially covered by FDIC insurance by the spread of deposits in multiple FDIC insured banks), a money market obligations trust registered under the US Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, and U.S. Treasury securities with maturities of three months or less. In the foreign markets we serve, we also maintain cash deposits in foreign banks, which tend to be insignificant and have no specific insurance. No losses have been experienced or are expected on these accounts.

~~Accounts receivable and revenues~~

~~Management deems all of the Company's accounts receivable to be fully collectible, and, as such, does not maintain any allowances for uncollectible receivables.~~

~~-11-~~

The Company provided a substantial portion of its services to five customers, which accounted for 10% or more of its revenues in either of the three-month periods ended January 31, 2021 and 2020. During the three months ended January 31, 2020, revenues from these customers were 19.5%, 14.9%, 10.3%, 8.8% and 0.1%, or a total of 53.6%, as compared to the percentages for the same period last year of 13.6%, 13.1%, 8.7%, 14.6% and 16.3%, or a total of 66.3%, respectively. At January 31, 2021, amounts due from these customers represented 81.8% of the Company’s total accounts receivable balance.

The information related to major customers in the above paragraph is based on revenues earned from said customers at the segment level because in management’s opinion contracts by segments are totally independent of each other, and therefore such information is more meaningful to the reader. However, at the global level five customers accounted for 10% or more of the Company’s revenues in either of the three-month periods ended January 31, 2021 and 2020. During the three months ended January 31, 2021, aggregate revenues from these global groups of affiliated companies were 19.5%, 17.0%, 10.3%, 8.8% and 0.1%, or a total of 55.7%, as compared to the same period last year for 13.6%, 16.0%, 8.7%, 14.6% and 16.3%, or a total of 69.2%, respectively. At January 31, 2021 amounts due from these global groups of affiliated companies represented 84.1% of total accounts receivable balance.

As of January 31, 2021, one of the Company’s customers (representing 8.8% of revenues during the three months ended January 31, 2021) owes the Company approximately $4.9 million, which represents approximately 20.7% of the Company’s total working capital. A significant portion of the customer’s funding comes from different financing sourcing. Management estimates that collectability of the account is reasonably assured, accordingly, no provision for losses has been recorded in the financial statements.

NOTE I – ~~SUBSEQUENT EVENT~~LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

The following table sets forth information as to our revenue for the three-month and six-month periods ended ~~January 31,~~April 30, 2021 and 2020, by geographic regions (dollars in thousands).

	Three months ended January 31,				Three months ended April 30,				Six months ended April 30,

For the ~~three-month~~six-month period ended ~~January 31,~~April 30, 2021, the Company’s total revenues were approximately ~~$4,488,000,~~$9,530,000, a net decrease of approximately ~~$125,000~~$731,000 when compared to the same period last year. The Puerto Rico consulting market had a revenue decrease in projects of approximately ~~$814,000,~~$2,186,000, which was partially offset by the increase in projects revenue in Europe, Brazil and the US markets of approximately ~~$509,000, $122,000~~$1,049,000, $266,000 and ~~$58,000,~~$140,000, respectively. When compared to the same period last year, gross margin decreased by ~~5.1~~6.4 percentage points. The net decrease in gross margin percentage points is mainly attributable to some projects in the Puerto Rico market for the ~~three-month~~six-month period ended ~~January 31,~~April 30, 2020, for which the gross margin was higher than usual. Selling, general and administrative expenses were approximately ~~$996,000,~~$2,022,000, a decrease of approximately ~~$53,000.~~$176,000. The net decrease is mainly attributable to athe decrease of ~~approximately $62,000 in~~ consulting fees and other administrative expenses for approximately $195,000 and $78,000, respectively, partially offset by an increase in ~~other administrative and general expenses.~~non-recurring legal fees for approximately $97,000. Other income declined by approximately ~~$43,000,~~$71,000, mainly due to the decline in interest income because of lower interest rates. These factors resulted in a net income of approximately ~~$268,000~~$508,000 for the ~~three-month~~six-month period ended ~~January 31,~~April 30, 2021, or adecrease of approximately ~~$259,000~~$706,000 when compared to the same period last year.

~~-13-~~-14-

While we have not identified any material adverse effect resulting from the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic, we continue to actively monitor the pandemic and any potential future impact it may have on our business and results of operations. The extent to which our operations will be impacted by the pandemic will depend largely on unknown developments which are highly uncertain and cannot be accurately predicted, including new information which may emerge concerning our customers, the severity of the pandemic and actions by government authorities to contain the outbreak or treat its impact, among other things.

The coronavirus pandemic, the Puerto Rico government financial crisis, the Tax Reform, other tax reforms on the markets where we do business, bio-pharmaceutical industry consolidations, trends on managing contract resources, and the Puerto Rico Act 154-2010, all pose current and future challenges which may adversely affect our future performance. We believe that our future profitability and liquidity will be dependent on the effect the local and global economy, including any impacts of the coronavirus pandemic, changes in tax laws, worldwide life science manufacturing industry consolidations, operational constraints imposed by our customers due to the coronavirus pandemic and resources management trends will have on our operations, and our ability to seek service opportunities and adapt to industry trends.

year, respectively.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Liquidity is a measure of our ability to meet potential cash requirements, including planned capital expenditures. As of ~~January 31,~~April 30, 2021, the Company had approximately $23.4 million in working capital.

On June 13, 2014, the Board of Directors of the Company authorized the Company to repurchase up to two million shares of its common stock (the "Repurchase Program"). During April 2020, the Company suspended purchases under the Repurchase Program to conserve cash due to the economic uncertainty caused by the coronavirus pandemic. We may resume repurchases in the future; however, we can provide no assurance when we will resume the Repurchase Program. As of ~~January 31,~~April 30, 2021, the Company has 1,658,846 shares of common stock available for future repurchases under the Repurchase Program.

Our primary cash needs consist of the payment of compensation to our consulting team, overhead expenses, and statutory taxes. Additionally, we may use cash for the repurchase of our common stock under the Company Stock Repurchase Program, capital expenditures and business development expenses. Management believes that based on the current level of working capital, operations and cash flows from operations, and the collectability of high-quality customer receivables are sufficient to fund anticipated expenses and satisfy other possible long-term contractual commitments.

To the extent that we pursue possible opportunities to expand our operations, either by acquisition or by the establishment of operations in a new market, we will incur additional overhead, and there may be a delay between the period we commence operations and our generation of net cash flow from operations.

While uncertainties relating to the current local and global economic condition, competition, the industries and geographical regions served by us and other regulatory matters exist within the consulting services industry, as described above, management is not aware of any other trends or events likely to have a material adverse effect on liquidity or its financial statements.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

We were not involved in any significant off-balance sheet arrangement during the ~~three~~six months ended ~~January 31,~~April 30, 2021.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

There were no material changes during the ~~three~~six months ended ~~January 31,~~April 30, 2021 to the critical accounting policies reported in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended October 31, 2020.

New Accounting Pronouncements

There were no new accounting standards issued since our filing of the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended October 31, 2020, which could have a significant effect on our condensed consolidated financial statements.

Forward-Looking Statements

Our business, financial condition, results of operations, cash flows and prospects, and the prevailing market price and performance of our common stock, may be adversely affected by a number of factors, including the matters discussed below. Certain statements and information set forth in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, as well as other written or oral statements made from time to time by us or by our authorized executive officers on our behalf, constitute “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the Federal Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995.

The risks, uncertainties and other factors that our stockholders and prospective investors should consider include the following:

~~-15-~~

●

Any outbreak of contagious diseases, or other adverse public health developments, could have a material and adverse effect on our business operations, financial condition and results of operations.

●

Because our business is concentrated in the life science and medical devices industries in Puerto Rico, the United States, Europe and Brazil, any changes in those industries or in those markets could impair our ability to generate revenue and realize a profit.

●

Puerto Rico’s economy, including its governmental financial crisis and the impact of hurricanes or any other natural disasters, including recent earthquakes, may affect the willingness of businesses to commence or expand operations in Puerto Rico, or may also consider closing operations located in Puerto Rico.

●

Because our business is dependent upon a small number of clients, the loss of a major client could impair our ability to operate profitably.

●

Customer procurement and sourcing practices intended to reduce costs could have an adverse effect on our margins and profitability.

●

We may be unable to pass on increased labor costs to our clients.

●

Consolidation in the pharmaceutical industry may have a harmful effect on our business.

●

We may be held liable for the actions of our employees or contractors when on assignment.

●

To the extent that we perform services pursuant to fixed-price or incentive-based contracts, our cost of services may exceed our revenue on the contract.

●

Because most of our contracts may be terminated on little or no advance notice, our failure to generate new business could impair our ability to operate profitably.

●

The collectability of our account receivables may be subject to our customers funding sources.

●

Because we are dependent upon our management and technical personnel, our ability to develop our business may be impaired if we are not able to engage skilled personnel.

●

Our cash could be adversely affected if the financial institutions in which we hold our cash fail.

●

We may be harmed if we do not penetrate markets and grow our current business operations.

●

Puerto Rico government enacted ACT 154-2010 may adversely affect the willingness of our customers to do business in Puerto Rico and consequently adversely affect our business.

●

US Federal Tax Reform may affect the willingness of companies to continue or expand their operations in Puerto Rico.

●

Further changes in tax laws in Puerto Rico or in other jurisdictions may adversely impact the willingness of our customers to continue or to expand their Puerto Rico operations.

●

Because the pharmaceutical industry is subject to government regulations, changes in government regulations relating to this industry may affect the need for our services.

●

Our CARES Act loan may be subject to regulatory review.

●

Since our business is dependent upon the development and enhancement of patented pharmaceutical products or processes by our clients, the failure of our clients to obtain and maintain patents could impair our ability to operate profitably.

●

If we are unable to protect our clients’ intellectual property, our ability to generate business will be impaired.

●

We may be subject to liability if our services or solutions for our clients infringe upon the intellectual property rights of others.

●

Because there is a limited market in our common stock, stockholders may have difficulty in selling our common stock and our common stock may be subject to significant price swings.

●

Our revenues, operating results and profitability will vary from quarter to quarter, which may result in increased volatility of our stock price.

●

The Company Stock Repurchase Program could affect the market price of our common stock and increase its volatility.

●

The issuance of securities, whether in connection with an acquisition or otherwise, may result in significant dilution to our stockholders.
