INNOVATIVE FOOD HOLDINGS, INC.
NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
 September 30, 2009
(Unaudited)

1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND NATURE OF BUSINESS OPERATIONS
 
Basis of Presentation
 
The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements of Innovative Food Holdings, Inc., and its wholly owned subsidiaries, Food Innovations, Inc. (“FII”), Food New Media Group, Inc. (“FNM”)  and 4 The Gourmet, Inc (“Gourmet”) (collectively, the “Company, or “IVFH”),  have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission.  FNM is currently inactive. They do not include all of the information and footnotes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for a complete financial statement presentation. U.S. accounting principles also contemplate continuation of the Company as a going concern.

Acquisition and Corporate Restructure

We were initially formed in September 1979 as Alpha Solarco Inc., a Colorado corporation. From September 1979 through February 2004, we were either inactive or involved in discontinued business ventures. In February 2003 we changed our name to Fiber Application Systems Technology, Ltd.

On January 26, 2004, through a share exchange, the shareholders of Food Innovations, Inc. (‘FII”) converted 10,000 shares (post-reverse split) of FII common stock outstanding into 25,000,000 shares  of IVFH. On January 29, 2004, in a transaction known as a reverse acquisition, the shareholders of Innovative Food Holdings, Inc. (“IVFH”) exchanged 25,000,000 shares  of IVFH for 25,000,000 shares  of Fiber Application Systems (formerly known as Alpha Solarco) (“Fiber”), a publicly-traded company.   The shareholders of IVFH thus assumed control of Fiber, and Fiber changed its name to IVFH.  The 25,000,000 shares  of IVFH are shown on the Company’s balance sheet at December 31, 2003 as shares outstanding.  These shares are shown at their  par value of $2,500 as a decrease of additional paid-in capital at the acquisition date of January 29, 2004.  There were 157,037 shares  outstanding in Fiber at the time of the reverse acquisition; the par value of these shares, or $16, was transferred from additional paid-in capital at the time of the reverse acquisition.
 
2. NATURE OF ACTIVITIES AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
 
Business Activity
 
Food Innovations, Inc. (“FII”) is in the business of providing premium white tablecloth restaurants with the freshest origin-specific perishables and specialty food products direct from its network of vendors to the end users (restaurants, hotels, country clubs, national chain accounts, casinos, and catering houses) within 24 - 72 hours, except as stated hereafter, eliminating all wholesalers and distributors. We currently sell 90% of our products through a distributor relationship with Next Day Gourmet, L.P., a subsidiary of US Foodservice, Inc. (“USF”), a $20 Billion broadline distributor.
  
Interim Financial Information

The accompanying unaudited interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared by the Company, in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles pursuant to Regulation S-X of the Securities and Exchange Commission.  Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in audited consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles have been condensed or omitted. Accordingly, these interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s financial statements and related notes as contained in Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2008. In the opinion of management, the interim consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments, including normal recurring adjustments, necessary for fair presentation of the interim periods presented. The results of the operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2009 are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations to be expected for the full year.

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 that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reported periods. Actual results could materially differ from those estimates.
 
 
INNOVATIVE FOOD HOLDINGS, INC.
NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
 September 30, 2009
(Unaudited)
 
Principles of Consolidation
 
The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned operating subsidiary, Food Innovations, Inc.  and its other wholly-owned subsidiaries Food New Media Group, Inc.  and 4 The Gourmet, Inc.  All material intercompany transactions have been eliminated upon consolidation of these entities.
 
Revenue Recognition
 
The Company recognizes revenue upon product delivery.  We ship all our products either overnight shipping terms or three day shipping terms to the customer and the customer takes title to product and assumes risk and ownership of the product when it is delivered.  Shipping charges to customers and sales taxes collectible from customers, if any, are included in revenues.
 
For revenue from product sales, the Company recognizes revenue in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board “FASB” Accounting Standard Codification “ASC” 605-15-05 (formerly referred to as “Staff Accounting Bulletin ("SAB") No. 104”, which superseded SAB No. 101, Revenue Recognition (“SAB No. 101”)). ASC 605-15-05 requires that four basic criteria must be met before revenue can be recognized: (1) persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists; (2) delivery has occurred; (3) the selling price is fixed and determinable; and (4) collectability is reasonably assured. Determination of criteria (3) and (4) are based on management's judgments regarding the fixed nature of the selling prices of the products delivered and the collectability of those amounts. Provisions for discounts and rebates to customers, estimated returns and allowances, and other adjustments are provided for in the same period the related sales are recorded. The Company defers any revenue for which the product has not been delivered or is subject to refund until such time that the Company and the customer jointly determine that the product has been delivered or no refund will be required. FASB ASC 605-15-05 incorporates ASC 605-25-05 “Multiple-Deliverable Revenue Arrangements” (formerly referred to as Emerging Issues Task Force ("EITF") No. 00-21). ASC 605-25-05 addresses accounting for arrangements that may involve the delivery or performance of multiple products, services and/or rights to use assets. The effect of implementing ASC 605-25-05 on the Company's consolidated financial position and results of operations was not significant.
 
This issue addresses determination of whether an arrangement involving more than one deliverable contains more than one unit of accounting and how the arrangement consideration should be measured and allocated to the separate units of accounting.  ASC 605-25-05 became effective for revenue arrangements entered into in periods beginning after June 15, 2003.  For revenue arrangements occurring on or after August 1, 2003, the Company revised its revenue recognition policy to comply with the provisions of ASC 605-25-05  and ASC 605-45-05 (formerly referred to as EITF 99-19).

Cost of goods sold
 
We have included in cost of good sold all costs which are directly related to the generation of revenue. These costs include primarily the cost of the product plus the shipping costs.
 
Selling, general, and administrative expenses
 
We have included in selling, general, and administrative expenses all other costs which support the Company’s operations but which are not includable as a cost of sales. These include primarily payroll, facility costs such as rent and utilities, selling expenses such as commissions and advertising, and other administrative costs including professional fees.  Advertising costs are expensed as incurred.

Cash and Cash Equivalents
 
Cash equivalents include all highly liquid debt instruments with original maturities of three months or less which are not securing any corporate obligations.
 
Accounts Receivable
 
The Company provides an allowance for doubtful accounts equal to the estimated uncollectible amounts.  The Company’s estimate is based on historical collection experience and a review of the current status of trade accounts receivable.  It is reasonably possible that the Company’s estimate of the allowance for doubtful accounts will change.  Accounts receivable are presented net of an allowance for doubtful accounts of $607 and $15,877 at September 30, 2009 and December 31, 2008, respectively.

Inventory is stated at the lower of cost or market determined by the first-in, first-out method. Inventories consist primarily of specialty foods held for resale. 

Income Taxes

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases.  Deferred tax assets, including tax loss and credit carryforwards, and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled.  The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date.
 
Deferred income tax expense represents the change during the period in the deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities. The components of the deferred tax assets and liabilities are   individually   classified as current and non-current based on their characteristics.  Realization of the deferred tax asset is dependent on generating sufficient taxable income in future years. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance when, in the opinion of management,  it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments
 
The carrying amount of the Company’s cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, notes payable, line of credit, accounts payable and accrued expenses, none of which is held for trading, approximates their estimated fair values due to the short-term maturities of those financial instruments.
 
 Long-Lived Assets
 
The Company reviews its property and equipment and any  identifiable intangibles for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. The test for impairment is required to be performed by management at least annually. Recoverability of assets to be held and used is measured by a comparison of the carrying amount of an asset to the future undiscounted operating cash flow expected to be generated by the asset. If such assets are considered to be impaired, the impairment to be recognized is measured by the amount by which the carrying amount of the asset exceeds the fair value of the asset. Long-lived assets to be disposed of are reported at the lower of carrying amount or fair value less costs to sell.
 
As of September 30, 2009, the Company’s management believes there is no impairment of its long-lived assets.  There can be no assurance, however, that market conditions will not change which could result in impairment of long-lived assets in the future.
 
Comprehensive Income

FASB ASC 220-10-15 (formerly referred to as Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 130 (“SFAS 130”)), “Reporting Comprehensive Income,” establishes standards for reporting and displaying of comprehensive income, its components and accumulated balances.  Comprehensive income is defined to include all changes in equity except those resulting from investments by owners and distributions to owners.  Among other disclosures, ASC 220-10-15 requires that all items that are required to be recognized under current accounting standards as components of comprehensive income be reported in a financial statement that is displayed with the same prominence as other financial statements.  The Company does not have any items of other comprehensive income in any of the periods presented.

Basic and Diluted Income (Loss) Per Share

In accordance with FASB ASC 260-10-45 (formerly referred to as SFAS No. 128), "Earnings Per Share," the basic loss per common share is computed by dividing net income available to common stockholders less preferred dividends by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding. Diluted loss per common share is computed similarly to basic loss per common share, except that the denominator is increased to include the number of additional common shares that would have been outstanding if the potential common shares had been issued and if the additional common shares were not anti-dilutive, and the numerator is changed to reflect any changes  to net loss that would have occurred had the dilutive shares been issued.

Liquidity
 
As reflected in the accompanying consolidated financial statements, the Company had net income of $1,574,556 and $959  for the three months ended September 30, 2009 and 2008, respectively.  The Company had net income of $843,337  and a loss of $3,246,166 for the nine months ended September 30, 2009 and 2008, respectively.   This  variance was principally due to non-cash adjustments due to the changes in the fair values of warrants, conversion options and registration penalty liabilities rather to differences in actual operating results.  The Company  had an accumulated deficit of  $6,590,117  at  September 30, 2009.  In addition, the Company’s current liabilities exceeded its current assets by   $4,481,884 as of September 30, 2009.  Consequently, its operations are subject to all risks inherent in the establishment of a new business enterprise.

Historically, we have funded our operations from cash generated by operations and from the issuance of both debt and equity securities.  The Company’s cash on hand may be insufficient to fund its planned operating needs.  Management is continuing to pursue new debt and/or equity financing and is continually evaluating the Company’s cash and capital needs.
 
The Company expects that any sale of additional equity securities or convertible debt will result in additional dilution to our stockholders.  The Company can give no assurance that it will be able to generate adequate funds from operations, that funds will be available, or the Company will be able to obtain such funds on favorable terms and conditions.  If the Company cannot generate positive cash flow from operations or secure additional funds, it will not be able to continue as a going concern.
 
By adjusting its operations and development to the level of available resources, management believes it has sufficient capital resources to meet projected cash flow through the next twelve months. The Company also intends to increase market share and cash flow from operations by focusing its sales activities on specific market segments. However, if thereafter, the Company is not successful in generating sufficient liquidity from operations or in raising sufficient capital resources, on terms it finds acceptable, this could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations, liquidity and financial condition.  Currently, we do not have any material long-term obligations other than those described in Note 9 to the financial statements included in this report, nor have we identified any long-term obligations that we contemplate incurring in the near future. As we seek to increase our sales of perishables, as well as identify new and other consumer oriented products and services, we may use existing cash reserves, long-term financing, or other means to finance such diversification.
 
The independent auditors report on our December 31, 2008 financial statements state that our recurring losses raise substantial doubts about our ability as a going concern.

Concentrations of Credit Risk
 
Financial instruments and related items, which potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk, consist primarily of cash, cash equivalents and trade receivables. The Company places its cash  in investments with credit quality institutions. At times, such investments may be in excess of applicable government mandated insurance limit. At September 30, 2009 and 2008, trade receivables from the Company’s largest customer amounted to 93 % and 95%  respectively, of total trade receivables.
 
Reclassification
 
Certain reclassifications have been made in prior year’s financial statements to conform to classifications used in the current year.
 
Stock-Based Compensation

The Company accounts for stock-based compensation under the provisions of FASB ASC 718-10 (formerly referred to as SFAS 123R), Share-Based Payment. This statement requires the Company to measure the cost of employee services received in exchange for an award of equity instruments based on the grant-date fair value of the award. That cost is recognized over the period in which the employee is required to provide service in exchange for the award, which is usually the vesting period.
 
In August 2005, the Company’s commitments to issue shares of common stock first exceeded its common stock authorized. At this time, the Company began to value its stock options via the liability method of accounting. Pursuant to guidance in ASC 780-10  the cost of these options are valued via the Black-Scholes valuation method when issued, and re-valued at each reporting period.  The gain or loss from this revaluation is charged to compensation expense during the period.  Options expense and gain or loss on revaluation during the three months ended September 30, 2009 and 2008 are summarized in the table below:

Significant Recent Accounting Pronouncements
 
The following accounting guidance has been issued and will be effective for the Company in or after fiscal year 2009:
 
Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standard Codification (“ASC”) 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures (“ASC 820” and formerly referred to as FAS-157), establishes a framework for measuring fair value in GAAP, clarifies the definition of fair value within that framework, and expands disclosures about the use of fair value measurements. ASC 820 is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007. ASC 820-10-65, Transition and Open Effective Date Information, deferred the effective date of ASC 820, for non-financial assets and liabilities that are not on a recurring basis recognized or disclosed at fair value in the financial statements, to fiscal years, and interim periods, beginning after November 15, 2008. The Company has adopted the guidance within ASC 820 for non-financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis at January 1, 2009 and will continue to apply its provisions prospectively from January 1, 2009. The application of ASC 820 for non-financial assets and liabilities did not have a significant impact on earnings nor the financial position for the periods presented.
 
FASB ASC 805, Business Combinations (“ASC 805” and formerly referred to as FAS-141(R)) requires the acquisition method to be applied to all transactions and other events in which an entity obtains control over one or more other businesses, requires the acquirer to recognize the fair value of all assets and liabilities acquired, even if less than one hundred percent ownership is acquired, and establishes the acquisition date fair value as measurement date for all assets and liabilities assumed. The guidance within ASC 805 is effective prospectively for any acquisitions made after fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2008.
 
FASB ASC 810, Consolidation (“ASC 810”), ASC 810-10-65, Transition and Open Effective Date Information (“ASC 810-10-65” and formerly referred to as FAS-160) establishes accounting and reporting standards for the non-controlling interest in a subsidiary and for the deconsolidation of a subsidiary. It clarifies that a non-controlling interest in a subsidiary is an ownership interest in the consolidated financial statements. ASC 810-10-65 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2008. The application of ASC 810-10-65 did not have a significant impact on earnings nor the financial position.
 
FASB ASC 815, Derivatives and Hedging (“ASC 815”), ASC 815-10-65, Transition and Open Effective Date Information (“ASC 815-10-65”and formerly referred to as FAS-161) includes a requirement for enhanced disclosures about an entity’s derivative and hedging activities and thereby improves the transparency of financial reporting. ASC 815 is effective prospectively for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2008. The application of ASC 815 expanded the required disclosures in regards to the Company’s derivative and hedging activities.
 
FASB ASC 350, Intangibles – Goodwill and Other, ASC 350-30-65, Transition and Open Effective Date Information (“ASC 350-30-65” and formerly referred to as FSP FAS 142-3) amends the factors that should be considered in developing renewal or extension assumptions used to determine the useful life of a recognized intangible. ASC 350-30-65 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2008, and interim periods within those fiscal years. The guidance in this ASC 350-30-65 for determining the useful life of a recognized intangible shall be applied prospectively to intangible assets acquired after the effective date. The disclosure requirements of ASC 350-30-65, however, shall be applied prospectively to all intangible assets recognized in the Company’s financial statements as of the effective date. The application of ASC 350-30-65 is not expected to have a material impact on earnings nor the financial position.
 
FASB ASC 715, Compensation – Retirement Benefits, ASC 715-20-65, Transition and Open Effective Date Information (“ASC 715-20-65” and formerly referred to as FSP FAS-132(R)-1) provides guidance on an employer’s disclosures about plan assets of a defined benefit pension or other postretirement plans. ASC 715-20-65 is effective prospectively for fiscal years ending after December 15, 2009. The application of ASC 715-20-65 will expand the Company’s disclosures regarding pension plan assets.
 
FASB ASC 825 Financial Instruments, ASC 825-10-65, Transition and Open Effective Date Information (“ASC 825-10-65” and formerly referred to as FSP FAS 107-1 and APB 28-1) requires disclosures about fair value of financial instruments for interim reporting periods as well as in annual financial statements. This guidance also requires those disclosures in summarized financial information at interim reporting periods. ASC 825-10-65 is effective prospectively for interim reporting periods ending after June 15, 2009. The application of ASC 825-10-65 expanded the Company’s disclosures regarding the use of fair value in interim periods.
 
FASB ASC 855, Subsequent Events (“ASC 855” and formerly referred to as FAS-165), modified the subsequent event guidance. The three modifications to the subsequent events guidance are: 1) To name the two types of subsequent events either as recognized or non-recognized subsequent events, 2) To modify the definition of subsequent events to refer to events or transactions that occur after the balance sheet date, but before the financial statement are issued or available to be issued and 3) To require entities to disclose the date through which an entity has evaluated subsequent events and the basis for that date, i.e. whether that date represents the date the financial statements were issued or were available to be issued. This guidance is effective for interim or annual financial periods ending after June 15, 2009, and should be applied prospectively.

4.  LOAN RECEIVABLE

The  loan receivable consists  of a loan to Pasta Italiana, Inc. (“Pasta”) in the net carrying amount of $149,050 and $153,000  at September 30, 2009 and December 31, 2008, respectively.  This  note bears interest at the rate of  15% per annum, payable in shares of Pasta stock.  The loan was renegotiated during the twelve months ended December 31, 2008, and resulted in the Company recognizing an impairment to the loan in the amount of $142,124, which was charged to operations during the year ended December 31, 2008.  This impairment was based upon the renegotiated principal and interest amount due the Company.  At  September 30, 2009, $96,550 of the amount due is classified as a current asset, and $52,500 is classified as a long term asset. At December 31, 2008, $60,000 was classified as a current asset, and $93,000 is classified as a long-term asset.  At September 30, 2009, Pasta is not in compliance with  the terms of the settlement agreement. During the three months ended September 30, 2009, the Company received principle payments in the amount of $3,950 from Pasta.  Management will consider the benefit to the Company of giving formal notice to Pasta with regard to their non-compliance with the payment terms of the Pasta note, which would trigger default status of the note, during the coming three months ending December 31, 2009.

The Company accounts for conversion options embedded in convertible notes in accordance with FASB ASC 815-10-05 (“ASC 815-10-05”, formerly referred to as SFAS No. 133) ‘‘Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities’’ and FASB ASC 815-40-05 (“ASC 815-40-05”, formerly referred to as EITF 00-19) ‘‘Accounting for Derivative Financial Instruments Indexed to, and Potentially Settled in, a Company’s Own Stock”. ASC 815-10-05 generally requires companies to bifurcate conversion options embedded in convertible notes from their host instruments and to account for them as free standing derivative financial instruments in accordance with ASC 815-40-05.

At September 30, 2009 and December 31, 2008, the Company had outstanding   $1,779,244  and $1,465,000 in principal, respectively, of various convertible notes with embedded conversion options accounted for as free standing derivative financial instruments in accordance with ASC 815-10-05 and ASC 815-40-05 .   The fair value of these embedded conversion options was $1,252,256 and $1,150,000 at September 30, 2009 and December 31, 2008, respectively.  The fair value of these embedded conversion options were estimated at September 30, 2009 using the Black-Scholes option pricing model with the following assumptions:  risk free interest rate of 0.18%; expected dividend yield of 0%; expected option life  of 10; and volatility of 369%.  The fair value of these embedded conversion options were estimated at December 31, 2008 using the Black-Scholes option pricing model with the following assumptions:  risk free interest rate of 0.27%; expected dividend yield of 0%; expected option life  of 10; and volatility of 332.67%.  The expected term of 10 years was used for all notes in both periods because several of the notes are currently or have been in default, and accordingly the term of the note is deemed not relevant as a variable for the Black-Scholes calculation.  The Company revalues the conversion options at each reporting period, and charges any change in value to operations. During the three months ended September 30, 2009 and 2008, the Company recorded a gain of $732,928 and $117,672, respectively, due to the change in value of the conversion option liability. During the nine months ended September 30, 2009 and 2008, the Company recorded a gain of $221,028 and a loss of $940,240, respectively, due to the change in value of the conversion option liability.
 
When convertible notes payable are satisfied by payment or by conversion to equity, the Company revalues the related conversion option liability at the time of the payment or conversion.  The conversion option liability is then relieved by this amount, which is charged to additional paid-in capital.  During the three months ended September 30, 2009 and 2008, a conversion option in the amount of $5,760 and $0, respectively, was transferred from liability to equity due to the conversion or payment of the related convertible notes payable. During the nine months ended September 30, 2009 and 2008, a conversion option in the amount of $13,560 and $0, respectively, was transferred from liability to equity due to the conversion or payment of the related convertible notes payable.

Discounts on notes payable

The Company calculates the fair value of any beneficial conversion features embedded in its convertible notes via the Black-Scholes valuation method. The Company also calculates the fair value of any detachable warrants offered with its convertible notes via the Black-Scholes valuation method.  The instruments are considered discounts to the notes, to the extent the aggregate value of the warrants and conversion features do not exceed the face value of the notes. These discounts are amortized to interest expense via the effective interest method over the term of the notes.  The fair value of these instruments is expensed as original issue discount to the extent that the value of these instruments exceeds the face value of the notes.

Extension of notes payable

The Company accounts for modifications of its notes payable according to the guidance in FASB ASC 470-50-40 (“ASC 470-50-40”, and formerly referred to as EITF 96-19), “Debtor’s Accounting for a Modification or Exchange of Debt Instruments” and FASB ASC 470-50-40 (“ASC 470-50-40”, and formerly referred to as EITF 06-6, “Debtor’s Accounting for a Modification (or Exchange) of Convertible Debt Instruments”) Pursuant to ASC 470-50-40, changes to an existing note should be accounted for as an extinguishment of the note with resultant gain or loss if the present value of the cash flows from the new note vary by  more than 10% from the present value of the cash flows from the original note.  ASC 470-50-40 provides an exception to this rule for the addition of conversion options accounted for as a derivative liability.

During the year ended December 31, 2007, the Company negotiated the extension of three of its notes payable in the aggregate amount of $160,000.  As consideration for the extension, the Company agreed to add a convertibility feature to the notes.  Because this note falls under the exception in ASC 470-50-40 regarding the addition of conversion options accounted for as a derivative liability, the Company accounted for this transaction as a modification of the existing note. The conversion option liability was valued at the amount of $127,450 at the date of the issuance of the extension via the Black-Scholes method. This amount was debited to discount on notes payable, and is being amortized via the effective interest method over the extended term of the related notes.

During the year ended December 31, 2008, the Company negotiated the further extension of these three notes payable in the aggregate amount of $160,000.  As consideration for the extension, the Company provided warrants to purchase an aggregate 43,200,000 shares of common stock.  The Company valued these warrants at the date of issuance via the Black-Scholes valuation method at $168,620.  The value of these warrants are considered a component of the 10% present value calculation under ASC 470-50-40. The Company accounted for this transaction as an extinguishment of debt, and recorded a loss on extinguishment in the amount of $168,620.  This amount was charged to operations during the year ended December 31, 2008.

During the nine  months ended September 30, 2009, the Company negotiated the extension of its notes payable in the aggregate amount of $587,000.  The Company extended the maturity date of these notes until January 1, 2010.  These notes, along with two additional notes payable in the aggregate amount of $150,000, contained certain provisions for a default interest rate.  The Company negotiated an agreement with the noteholders and the noteholders have agreed to the original interest rate of 8% per annum.
 
Embedded conversion features of notes payable:

The Company accounts for conversion options embedded in convertible notes in accordance with FASB ASC 815-10-05 (“ASC 815-10-05”, and formerly referred to as SFAS No. 133) and FASB ASC 815-40-05 (“ASC 815-40-05”, and formerly referred to as EITF 00-19). ASC 815-10-05 generally requires companies to bifurcate conversion options embedded in convertible notes and preferred shares from their host instruments and to account for them as free standing derivative financial instruments in accordance with ASC 815-40-05.
 
The Company values embedded conversion features utilizing the Black-Scholes valuation model.  Conversion options are valued upon issuance, and re-valued at each financial statement reporting date.  Any change in value is charged to income or expense during the period.  The following table illustrates certain key information regarding our conversion option  valuation assumptions for the nine months ended September 30, 2009 and 2008:

10. PENALTY FOR LATE REGISTRATION OF SHARES
 
During the twelve months ended December 31, 2008, the Company accrued liabilities for the issuance of 0 and 22,760,000, respectively (the “Penalty Shares”), of the Company’s stock pursuant to a penalty calculation with regard to the late registration of shares underlying convertible notes payable.  At December 31, 2008, there were a total of 110,280,000 Penalty Shares issuable.  During the  twelve  months ended December 31, 2008, the Company  revalued  these 110,280,000 Penalty Shares.  This resulted in  losses of $ 220,564 and $3,296, respectively.  The liability carried on the Company’s balance sheets at December 31, 2008 representing the value of the Penalty Shares is $551,400.
 
 
INNOVATIVE FOOD HOLDINGS, INC.
NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
 September 30, 2009
(Unaudited)

On January 1, 2009, the Company reached a settlement agreement (the “Registration Penalty Settlement” ) with the parties to whom the penalty for the late registration is owed.  The agreement was a cancellation of the liability for the registration of shares in exchange for convertible notes in the amount of $328,744.  At January 1, 2009, the Company valued the conversion option liability based upon the closing price of the Company’s common stock. This value was the same as the December 31, 2008 value of $551,400.  During the nine months ended September 30, 2009, the Company recognized a gain on settlement of the conversion option liability in the amount of $222,656, representing the difference between the value of the conversion option of $551,400 and the notes payable issued  pursuant to the Registration Penalty Settlement of $328,744.

The registration rights which triggered the accrual of the penalty shares expired on November 27, 2008.  At December 31, 2008, the Company had accrued the maximum number of shares issuable under the registration rights agreement.

Except for the penalties disclosed above for not registering the shares of common stock underlying certain convertible notes, there are no circumstances that would require the Company to transfer any consideration to the note holders.

11. INCOME TAXES

Deferred income taxes result from the temporary differences arising from the use of accelerated depreciation methods for income tax purposes and the straight-line method for financial statement purposes, and an accumulation of Net Operating Loss carryforwards for income tax purposes with a valuation allowance against the carryforwards for book purposes. 

In assessing the realizability of deferred tax assets, management considers whether it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. Included in deferred tax assets are Federal and State net operating loss carryforwards of approximately $6,700,000,  which will expire beginning in 2028.  The ultimate realization of deferred tax assets is dependent upon the generation of future taxable income during the periods in which those temporary differences become deductible. Management considers the scheduled reversal of deferred tax liabilities, projected future taxable income, and tax planning strategies in making this assessment. Based upon our cumulative losses through September 30, 2009, we have provided a valuation allowance reducing the net realizable benefits of these deductible differences to $0 at September 30, 2009.  The amount of the deferred tax asset considered realizable could change in the near term if projected future taxable income is realized.   In the event of  significant changes in the Company's ownership, the Company's future use of its existing net operating losses may be limited.
 
The income tax provision (benefit) for the nine months ended September 30, 2009 and  2008 consists of the following:

Accounting for warrants and stock options

The Company accounts for the issuance of common stock purchase warrants, stock options, and other freestanding derivative financial instruments in accordance with the provisions of FASB ASC 815-40-15 (“ASC 815-40-15” and formerly referred to as EITF 00-19). Based on the provisions of ASC 815-40-05  the Company classifies, as equity, any contracts that (i) require physical settlement or net-share settlement or (ii) gives the Company a choice of net-cash settlement or settlement in its own shares (physical settlement or net-share settlement). The Company classifies as assets or liabilities any contract that (i) require net-cash or (ii) give the counterparty a choice of net-cash settlement in shares (physical or net-share settlement). At September 30, 2009  and 2008, the Company had  no freestanding derivative financial instruments that require net cash settlement or give the counterparty a choice of net cash settlement or settlement in shares.

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

The fair value of these warrants and stock options is determined utilizing the Black-Scholes valuation model. Through August 2005, these warrants were accounted for by the equity method, whereby the fair value of the warrants was charged to additional paid-in capital. During September, 2005, the number of shares of the Company's common stock issued and issuable exceeded the number of shares of common stock the Company had authorized. As the Company no longer had sufficient shares authorized to settle all of our outstanding contracts, this triggered a change in the manner in which the Company accounts for the warrants and stock options. The Company began to account for these warrants  and stock options utilizing the liability method. Pursuant to ASC 815-40-05 ,"If a contract is reclassified from permanent or temporary equity to an asset or a liability, the change in fair value of the contract during the period the contract was classified as equity should be accounted for as an adjustment to stockholders' equity." Accordingly, during the year ended December 31, 2005, the Company charged the amount of $10,374,536 to stockholders' equity. At the same time, the Company changed the way in which it accounts for the beneficial conversion feature of convertible notes payable (see note 8).
 
The accounting guidance states that the warrants and stock options which are a derivative liability should be revalued each reporting period. The recorded value of such warrants and stock options can fluctuate significantly based on fluctuations in the market value of the underlying securities of the issuer of the warrants and stock options, as well as in the volatility of the stock price during the term used for observation and the term remaining for warrants. During the three months ended September 30, 2009 and 2008, the Company recognized a gain of $777,595 and of $125,553, respectively, for the change in the fair value of the warrant liability and recorded the gains and losses in operations during the three months ended September 30, 2009  and 2008. During the nine months ended September 30, 2009 and 2008, the Company recognized a gain of $523,312 and a loss of $838,849, respectively, for the change in the fair value of the warrant liability and recorded the gains and losses in operations during the nine months ended September 30, 2009  and 2008. During the three months ended September 30, 2009  and 2008, the Company recognized a gain of $84,314 and $20,663, respectively, for the change in the fair value of the stock option liability and recorded these amounts in operations during the three months ended September 30, 2009  and 2008. During the nine months ended September 30, 2009  and 2008, the Company recognized a gain of $49,268 and  a loss of $52,088, respectively, for the change in the fair value of the stock option liability and recorded these amounts in operations during the nine months ended September 30, 2009  and 2008.

13.  GOING CONCERN
 
The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, which contemplate continuation of the Company as a going concern.  The  Company has reported a net income of $1,574,556 and $843,337  for the three and nine  months ended September 30, 2009, and  had an accumulated deficit of  $6,590,117 as of September 30, 2009.  The Company’s net income for the nine months ended September 30, 2009 of  $843,337  was generated primarily by non-cash transactions, including non-cash gains of $523,312 on the revaluation of the warrant liability, $49,268 on the revaluation of the option liability, $221,028 for the revaluation of the conversion option liability, and $222,656 on the extinguishment of debt. The Company cannot be certain that anticipated revenues from operations will be sufficient to satisfy its ongoing capital requirements.  Management believes the Company will generate sufficient capital from operations and from debt and equity financing in order to satisfy current liabilities in the succeeding twelve months.  Management’s belief is based on the Company’s operating plane, which in turn is based on assumptions that may prove to be incorrect.  If the Company’s financial resources are insufficient the Company may require additional financing in order to execute its operating plan and continue as a going concern.  The Company cannot predict whether this additional financing will be in the form of equity or debt, or be in another form. The Company may not be able to obtain the necessary additional capital on a timely basis, on acceptable terms, or at all.  In any of these events, the Company may be unable to implement its current plans for expansion, repay its debt obligations as they become due or respond to competitive pressures, any of which circumstances would have a material adverse effect on its business, prospects, financial condition and results of operations. The Company has not made any adjustments to the financial statements which would be necessary should the Company not be able to continue as a going concern.
 
14.  AMENDMENTS TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

By letters dated November 7,  2008 and March 6, 2009,  the Company received comments from the SEC to its Annual Report on Form 10-KSB for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2007.  As such, the Company has amended its financial statements for the three  and nine months ended  September 30, 2008.

ITEM 2 - MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

FORWARD LOOKING STATEMENTS

The following discussion should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and the related notes thereto, as well as all other related notes, and financial and operational references, appearing elsewhere in this document.
 
Certain information contained in this discussion and elsewhere in this report may include "forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, and is subject to the safe harbor created by that act. The safe harbor created by the Securities Litigation Reform Act will not apply to certain  "forward looking statements” because we issued "penny stock" (as defined in Section 3(a)(51) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and Rule 3a51-1 under the Exchange Act) during the three year period preceding the date(s) on which those forward looking statements were first made, except to the extent otherwise specifically provided by rule, regulation or order of the Securities and Exchange Commission. We caution readers that certain important factors may affect our actual results and could cause such results to differ materially from any forward-looking statements which may be deemed to have been made in this Report or which are otherwise made by or on behalf of us For this purpose, any statements contained in this report that are not statements of historical fact may be deemed to be forward-looking statements. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, words such as "may",  "will", "expect", "believe",  "explore",  "consider",  "anticipate",  "intend", "could", "estimate",  "plan", "propose" or "continue" or the negative variations of those words or comparable terminology are intended to identify forward-looking statements. Factors that may affect our results include, but are not limited to, the risks and uncertainties associated with:
 
● 
Our ability to raise capital necessary to sustain our anticipated operations and implement our business plan,
   
● 
Our ability to implement our business plan,
 
● 
Our ability to generate sufficient cash to pay our lenders and other creditors,
 
● 
The fact that over 90% of our revenues come from one customer,
   
● 
Our ability to employ and retain qualified management and employees,
 
● 
Our dependence on the efforts and abilities of our current employees and executive officers,
 
● 
Changes in government regulations that are applicable to our current  or anticipated business,
 
● 
Changes in the demand for our services,
 
● 
The degree and nature of our competition,
 
● 
The lack of diversification of our business plan,
   
● 
The general volatility of the capital markets and the establishment of a market for our shares, and
   
● 
Disruption in the economic and financial conditions primarily from the impact of past terrorist attacks in the United States, threats of future attacks, police and military activities overseas and other disruptive worldwide political and economic events and weather conditions.
 
We are also subject to other risks detailed from time to time in our other Securities and Exchange Commission filings and elsewhere in this report. Any one or more of these uncertainties, risks and other influences could materially affect our results of operations and whether forward-looking statements made by us ultimately prove to be accurate.  Our actual results, performance and achievements could differ materially from those expressed or implied in these forward-looking statements.  We undertake no obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether from new information, future events or otherwise.
 
 
Critical Accounting Policy and Estimates

Use of Estimates in the Preparation of Financial Statements

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. These estimates include certain assumptions related to doubtful accounts receivable, stock-based services, valuation of financial instruments, and income taxes. On an on-going basis, we evaluate these estimates, including those related to revenue recognition and concentration of credit risk. 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 these estimates under different assumptions or conditions. We believe our estimates have not been materially inaccurate in past years, and our assumptions are not likely to change in the foreseeable future.

On August 25, 2005, the Company entered into contracts which obligated the company under certain circumstances to issue shares of common stock in excess of the number of shares of common stock authorized. Under accounting guidance provided by FASB ASC 815-40-05 (formerly referred to as EITF 00-19), effective August 25, 2005,  the Company began to account for all derivative financial instruments, including warrants, conversion features embedded in notes payable, and stock options,  via the liability method of accounting. Accordingly, all these instruments are  valued at issuance utilizing the Black-Scholes valuation method, and are re-valued at each period ending date, also using the Black-Scholes valuation method.  Any gain or loss from revaluation is charged to operations during the period.

(a) Warrants:

The Company values warrants using the Black-Scholes valuation model.  Warrants are valued upon issuance, and re-valued at each financial statement reporting date.  Any change in value is charged to income or expense during the period.  The following table illustrates certain key information regarding our warrants and warrant valuation assumptions for the nine months ended September 30, 2009 and 2008:

b.) Embedded conversion features of notes payable:

The Company accounts for conversion options embedded in convertible notes in accordance with FASB ASC 815-10-05 (formerly referred to as SFAS No. 133)  and FASB ASC 815-40-05 (formerly referred to as EITF 00-19).  FASB ASC 815-10-05 (formerly referred to as  SFAS 133) generally requires companies to bifurcate conversion options embedded in convertible notes and preferred shares from their host instruments and to account for them as free standing derivative financial instruments in accordance with FASB ASC 815-40-05 (formerly referred to as EITF 00-19).
 
 
The Company values embedded conversion features utilizing the Black-Scholes valuation model.  Conversion options are valued upon issuance, and re-valued at each financial statement reporting date.  Any change in value is charged to income or expense during the period.  The following table illustrates certain key information regarding our conversion option  valuation assumptions at September 30, 2009 and 2008:

Doubtful Accounts Receivable
 
The Company maintained an allowance in the amount of $607 for doubtful accounts receivable at September 30, 2009, and $15,877 at December 31, 2008. Actual losses on accounts receivable were $0 for 2008, 2007 and 2006. The Company has an operational relationship of several years with our major customers, and we believe this experience provides us with a solid foundation from which to estimate our expected losses on accounts receivable. Should our sales mix change or if we develop new lines of business or new customers, these estimates and our estimation process will change accordingly. These estimates have been accurate in the past.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The Company measures its financial assets and liabilities in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The estimated fair values approximate their carrying value because of the short-term maturity of these instruments or the stated interest rates are indicative of market interest rates. These fair values also vary due to the market price of the Company’s stock at the date of valuation. Generally, these liabilities will increase as the price of the Company’s stock increases (with resultant gain), and decrease as the Company’s stock decreases (yielding a loss). These fluctuations are likely to continue as long as the Company has large financial instrument liabilities on its balance sheet. Should the Company succeed in removing these liabilities from its balance sheet, either by satisfying them or by reclassifying them as equity; the amount of gains and losses recognized will be reduced.
 
Income Taxes

The Company has a history of losses, and as such has recorded no liability for income taxes. Until such time as the Company begins to generate a profit and provides evidence that a continued profit is a reasonable expectation, management will not determine that there is a basis for accruing an income tax liability. These estimates have been accurate in the past as the Company has not yet generated a profit

Background
 
We were initially formed in June 1979 as Alpha Solarco Inc., a Colorado corporation. From June 1979 through February 2003, we were either inactive or involved in discontinued business ventures. In February 2003 we changed our name to Fiber Application Systems Technology, Ltd.
 
In January 2004, we changed our state of incorporation by merging into Innovative Food Holdings, Inc. (“IVFH”), a Florida shell corporation. As a result of the merger we changed our name to that of Innovative Food Holdings, Inc. In February 2004 we also acquired Food Innovations, Inc. (“FII”) a Delaware corporation incorporated on January 9, 2002 and through FII we are in the business of national food distribution using third-party shippers.
 
Transactions With a Major Customer
 
Transactions with a major customer and related economic dependence information is set forth (1) following our discussion of Liquidity and Capital Resources, (2) under the heading Concentrations of Credit Risk  in Note 2 to the Consolidated Financial Statements, and (3) as the fourth risk factor listed under Forward Looking Statements.
 
Background

The following discussion should be read in conjunction with the financial statements of the company and related notes included elsewhere in this Report and in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2008.
 
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

The following is a discussion of our financial condition and results of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2009 and 2008.

This discussion may contain forward looking-statements that involve risks and uncertainties. Our actual results could differ materially from the forward looking-statements discussed in this report. This discussion should be read in conjunction with our consolidated financial statements, the notes thereto and other financial information included elsewhere in the report.
 
 
Three Months Ended September 30, 2009 Compared to Three Months Ended September 30, 2008

Revenue

Revenue increased by $99,984, or  approximately 6%, to $1,891,316 for the three months ended September 30, 2009 from $1,791,332 during  the prior year. Sales increases in  Seafoods, Meat and Game, and Cheese  were offset by sales decreases in Poultry, Produce,  and Specialty lines. We continue to assess the potential of new revenue sources from the manufacture and sale of proprietary food products and additional sales channel opportunities and will implement that strategy if, based on our analysis, we deem it beneficial to us. 
 
Any changes in the food distribution operating landscape that materially hinders our current ability and/or cost to deliver our fresh produce to our customers could potentially cause a material impact on our net revenue and gross margin and, therefore, our profitability and cash flows could be adversely affected.
 
Currently, a small portion of our revenues comes from imported products or international sales.   Our current sales from such segments may be hampered and negatively impacted by any economic tariffs that may be imposed in the United States  or in foreign countries.
 
See "Transactions with Major Customers" and the Securities and Exchange Commission's ("SEC") mandated FR-60 disclosures following the "Liquidity and Capital Resources" section for a further discussion of the significant customer concentrations, loss of significant customer, critical accounting policies and estimates, and other factors that could affect future results.
 
Cost of goods sold
 
Our cost of goods sold  for the three months ended September 30, 2009 was $1,451,934, an increase of $12,293 or approximately 1%  compared to cost of goods sold  of $1,439,641  for the three months ended September 30, 2008. Cost of goods sold is primarily made up of the following expenses for the three months ended September 30, 2009: of good of specialty, meat, game, cheese poultry and other sales categories in the amount of $1,054,170, and  shipping expenses in the amount of $380,284.  Shipping costs decreased $72,930 for 2009 versus 2008, while cost of specialty meat, game, cheese poultry and other sales categories increased $67,743.
 
Selling, general and administrative expenses
 
Selling, general and administrative expenses were $360,201 for the three months ended  September 30, 2009, a decrease of $103,492, or approximately 22%, compared to $463,693 for the three months ended September 30, 2008.   The primary components of selling, general, and administrative expenses for the three months ended September 30, 2009 were payroll and related costs of $223,918;  consulting and professional fees of $53,249; facilities costs of $24,575; travel and entertainment costs of $16,543; insurance costs of $12,527;   commission expense of $8,429; amortization and depreciation of $7,305 and software expense of $6,097. We expect our legal fees to decrease in 2009 due to (i) an expected reduction in costs related to the Pasta litigation (ii) our continued negotiation of flat billing fees rates with several of our professional service providers including for much of our legal fees going forward.  We also expect to incur reduced accounting fees in 2009 as we have primarily addressed the SEC’s comments to our previous filings.  We do however expect to increase our spending on advertising and  marketing  fees in 2009.
 
Interest (income) expense, net

Interest (income) expense, net of interest income, increased by $218, or approximately 1%, from $99,244 during the three months ended September 30, 2008 to $99,462 for the three months ended September 30, 2009. Interest expense remained relatively unchanged because our debt levels and interest rates did not change significantly compared to the prior year.

Loss from revaluation of penalty shares
 
During the three months ended September 30, 2008, the Company revalued the 110,280,000 Penalty Shares using the Black-Scholes valuation model, and at September 30, 2008 recorded liabilities in the amount of $771,956.  These revaluations resulted in recording gains in the amount of $110,280 during the three months ended September 30, 2008.  In January 2009, the Company reached a settlement agreement with the parties to whom these penalty shares were owed, and the Company was relieved of its obligation to issue these shares and this liability was eliminated. As a result, there was no gain or loss on revaluation of the liability for penalty shares during the three months ended September 30, 2009.
 
 
Gain and loss from change in fair value of warrant liability
 
At September 30, 2009, the Company has outstanding warrants to purchase an aggregate 272,200,000  shares of the Company’s common stock.  The Company valued this warrant liability at September 30, 2009 at $864,975.    This revaluation resulted in a gain of $777,595,  which the Company charged to operations during the three months ended September 30, 2009.  This is an increase of $652,042  or approximately 519% compared to a gain of $125,553  from the revaluation of the warrant liability which the Company recorded during the three months ended September 30, 2008.
 
Gain and loss from change in fair value of  option liability
 
At September 30, 2009, the Company had outstanding a liability to issue an aggregate 35,000,000 shares of the Company’s common stock pursuant to the exercise of stock options.  The Company revalued this liability at September  30, 2009 at $125,424.  This revaluation resulted in a gain of $84,314  which the Company included in operations for the three months ended September 30, 2009.  This is an increase  of $63,651  or approximately 308% compared to a gain of $20,663 from the revaluation of the conversion option liability which the Company recorded during the three months ended September 30, 2008.

Gain and loss from change in fair value of conversion option liability
 
At September 30, 2009, the Company had outstanding a liability to issue an aggregate of 487,040,600 shares of the Company’s common stock pursuant to convertible notes payable.  The Company revalued this liability at September 30, 2009 at $1,252,256.  This revaluation resulted in a gain of $732,928  which the Company included in operations for the three months ended September 30, 2009.  This is an increase  of $615,256   or approximately 523% compared to a gain of $117,672  from the revaluation of the conversion option liability which the Company recorded during the three months ended September 30, 2008.

Net Income

For the reasons stated above, net income for the three months ended September 30, 2009 was $1,574,556, an increase of $1,573,597 compared to net income of $959, during the three months ended September 30, 2008. It is important to  note that  a substantial portion of these gains and losses are the result of non-cash items, such as the revaluation of warrant liability, option liability, and conversion option liability, as well as the gain and loss on the extinguishment of debt.  These non-cash items of income and expense  had no direct impact on our cash flows during the periods ended September 30, 2009 or 2008.

Nine Months Ended September 30, 2009 Compared to Nine Months Ended September 30, 2008

Revenue

Revenue increased by $183,350 or  approximately 4%, to $5,259,914 for the nine months ended September 30, 2009 from $5,076,564 during  the prior year. Sales increases in  Seafoods, Meat and Game, and Cheese  were offset by sales decreases in Poultry, Produce,  and Specialty lines. We continue to assess the potential of new revenue sources from the manufacture and sale of proprietary food products and additional sales channel opportunities and will implement that strategy if, based on our analysis, we deem it beneficial to us.

Any changes in the food distribution operating landscape that materially hinders our current ability and/or cost to deliver our fresh produce to our customers could potentially cause a material impact on our net revenue and gross margin and, therefore, our profitability and cash flows could be adversely affected.
 
Currently, a small portion of our revenues comes from imported products or international sales.   Our current sales from such segments may be hampered and negatively impacted by any economic tariffs that may be imposed in the United States  or in foreign countries.

See "Transactions with Major Customers" and the Securities and Exchange Commission's ("SEC") mandated FR-60 disclosures following the "Liquidity and Capital Resources" section for a further discussion of the significant customer concentrations, loss of significant customer, critical accounting policies and estimates, and other factors that could affect future results.
 
Cost of goods sold
 
Our cost of goods sold  for the nine months ended September 30, 2009 was $4,024,294, an increase of $5,019 or  less than 1%  compared to cost of goods sold  of $4,019,275  for the nine months ended September 30, 2008. Cost of goods sold is primarily made up of the following expenses for the nine months ended September 30, 2009: cost of good of specialty, meat, game, cheese poultry and other sales categories in the amount of $2,935,106, and shipping expenses in the amount of $1,044,322.  Shipping costs decreased $84,607 for 2009 versus 2008, and cost of good for specialty foods, meat, game, cheese, and poultry increase by $44,760
  
 
Selling, general and administrative expenses
 
Selling, general and administrative expenses were $1,119,320 for the nine months ended  September 30, 2009, a decrease of $221,935 or approximately 17%, compared to $1,341,255 for the nine months ended September 30, 2008.   The primary components of selling, general, and administrative expenses for the nine months ended September 30, 2009 were payroll and related costs of $672,829;  consulting and professional fees of $182,448;  facilities costs of $95,724; insurance costs of $56,254;  travel and entertainment expenses of $31,092; amortization and depreciation of $24,632; commission expense of $23,149; and software expense of $17,752. Our legal fees in 2009 have decreased and we expect our legal fees to continue to decrease in 2009 due to (i) an expected reduction in costs related to the Pasta litigation (ii) our continued negotiation of flat billing fees rates with several of our professional service providers including for much of our legal fees going forward.  We also expect to incur reduced accounting fees in 2009 as we have primarily addressed the SEC’s comments to our previous filings.  We do however expect to increase our spending on advertising and  marketing  fees in 2009.
 
Interest (income) expense, net

Interest (income) expense, net of interest income, increased by $23,392, or approximately 9%, from $265,835 during the nine months ended September 30, 2008 to $289,227 for the nine months ended September 30, 2009. This increase was attributable primarily to the new issuances of convertible notes payable for services performed and the settlement of the penalty for late registration of shares, to the renegotiation of the interest rate with noteholders, and to the amortization of the discount associated with the beneficial conversion features of these  notes.

Gain and loss on extinguishment of debt
 
During the nine months ended September 30, 2008, the Company extended certain of its notes payable, and as consideration for these extensions the Company provided the lenders with warrants  to purchase an aggregate 43,200,000 shares of the Company’s common stock.  This resulted in a loss on extinguishment of debt in the amount of $168,620.  During the nine months ended September 30, 2009, the Company negotiated a settlement of the liability for penalty shares, whereby the Company issued convertible notes payable in the amount of $528,744, as a result the Company recorded a gain on the transactions of $222,656.  
 
Loss from revaluation of penalty shares
 
During the nine months ended September 30, 2008, the Company revalued the 110,280,000 Penalty Shares using the Black-Scholes valuation model, and at September 30, 2008 recorded liabilities in the amount of $771,956.  These revaluations resulted in recording losses in the amount of $441,120 during the nine months ended September 30, 2008. In January 2009, the Company reached a settlement agreement with the parties to whom these penalty shares were owed, and the Company was relieved of its obligation to issue these shares and this liability was eliminated. As a result, during the nine months ended September 30, 2009, there was no gain or loss on revaluation of the liability for penalty shares.

Gain and loss from change in fair value of warrant liability
 
At September 30, 2009, the Company has outstanding warrants to purchase an aggregate 272,200,000  shares of the Company’s common stock.  The Company valued this warrant liability at September 30, 2009 at $864,975.    This revaluation resulted in a gain of $523,312  which the Company charged to operations during the nine months ended September 30, 2009.  This is an increase of $1,362,161  or approximately 162% compared to a loss of $838,849  from the revaluation of the warrant liability which the Company recorded during the nine months ended September 30, 2008.
 
Gain and loss from change in fair value of  option liability
 
At September 30, 2009, the Company had outstanding a liability to issue an aggregate of 35,000,000  shares of the Company’s common stock pursuant to the exercise of stock options.  The Company revalued this liability at September 30, 2009 at $125,424.  This revaluation resulted in a gain of $49,268  which the Company included in operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2009.  This is an increase  of $101,356  or approximately 195% compared to a loss of $52,088 from the revaluation of the conversion option liability which the Company recorded during the nine months ended September 30, 2008.

Gain and loss from change in fair value of conversion option liability
 
At September 30, 2009, the Company had outstanding a liability to issue an aggregate of 794,240,600 shares of the Company’s common stock pursuant to convertible notes payable.  The Company revalued this liability at September 30, 2009 at $1,252,256.  This revaluation resulted in a gain of $221,028  which the Company included in operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2009.  This is an increase  of $1,161,268 or approximately  124% compared to a loss of $940,240  from the revaluation of the conversion option liability which the Company recorded during the nine months ended September 30, 2008.
 
 
Net income (loss)
 
For the reasons stated above, net income for the nine months ended September 30, 2009 was $843,337, an increase of $4,089,503 or approximately 126% compared to a net loss of $3,246,166, during the nine months ended September 30, 2008. It is important to  note that  a substantial portion of these gains and losses are the result of non-cash items, such as the revaluation of warrant liability, option liability, and conversion option liability, as well as the gain and loss on the extinguishment of debt.  These non-cash items of income and expense  had no direct impact on our cash flows during the periods ended September 30, 2009 or 2008.
 
Liquidity and Capital Resources

As of September 30, 2009, the Company had current assets of $564,784, consisting of cash of $143,973, trade accounts receivable of $269,046,  loans receivable of $96,550, inventory of $47,795, and other current assets of  $7,420.  Also, at September 30, 2009, the Company had current liabilities of  $5,046,668, consisting of accounts payable and accrued liabilities of $863,140 (of which $134,085 is payable to a related party); accrued interest of $551,270; accrued interest – related parties of $163,178; current portion of notes payable, net of discounts of $918,766; current portion of notes payable – related parties, net of discounts of $307,659; warrant liability of $864,975; option liability of $125,424; and conversion option liability of $1,252,256.  This resulted in a working capital deficit of $4,481,884.
 
During the nine months ended September 30, 2009, the Company had cash used by operating activities of $1,006. The Company had the following non-cash items during the period:  non-cash costs of  $24,632 for depreciation and amortization, $11,200 for non-cash compensation,  $97,093 for the amortization of the discount on accrued interest, and $62,100 for the amortization of the discount on notes payable; the Company also had the following non-cash gains during the period: $222,656 for gain  on extinguishment of debt, $523,312 for the revaluation of the warrant liability, $221,028 for the revaluation of the conversion option liability, and $49,268 for the revaluation of the option liability.  The Company also had a change in the components of working capital during the period that generated a use of cash in the amount of  $23,105.    
 
The Company had cash used by investing activities  of $3,590, which consisted of payments made for the acquisitions of property and equipment of $7,540, partially offset by principal payments received on a loan receivable of $3,950.

The Company had cash used by financing activities of $11,976, which consisted of  principal payments on debt.  

Historically, our primary cash requirements have been used to fund the cost of operations, with additional funds having been used in promotion and advertising and in connection with the exploration of new business lines.
 
The Company’s cash on hand may be insufficient to fund its planned operating needs.  Management is continuing to pursue new debt and/or equity financing and is continually evaluating the Company’s cash and capital needs.
 
The Company expects that any sale of additional equity securities or convertible debt will result in additional dilution to our stockholders.  The Company can give no assurance that it will be able to generate adequate funds from operations, that funds will be available, or the Company will be able to obtain such funds on favorable terms and conditions.  If  the Company cannot secure additional funds it will not be able to continue as a going concern according to the current business plan.
 
By adjusting its operation and development to the level of available resources, management believes it has sufficient capital resources to meet projected cash flow through the next twelve months. The Company also intends to increase market share and cash flow from operations by focusing its sales activities on specific market segments. However, if thereafter, the Company is not successful in generating sufficient liquidity from operations or in raising sufficient capital resources, on terms acceptable to us, this could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations, liquidity and financial condition.  Currently, we do not have any material long-term obligations other than those described in Note 8 to the financial statements included in this report, nor have we identified any long-term obligations that we contemplate incurring in the near future. As we seek to increase our sales of perishables, as well as identify new and other consumer oriented products and services, we may use existing cash reserves, long-term financing, or other means to finance such diversification.
 
The independent auditors report on our December 31, 2008 financial statements state that our recurring losses raise substantial doubts about our ability as a going concern.
 
 
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
 
We have no off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues, or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources that is material to investors.
 
Inflation
 
In the opinion of management, inflation has not had a material effect on the Company’s financial condition or results of its operations.
 
RISK FACTORS

The Company’s business and success is subject to numerous risk factors as detailed in its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2008 which is available at no cost at www.sec.gov.
