1. ORGANIZATION
The
Company was incorporated under the laws of the State of Nevada on October 8,
1998 under the name of “Cigar King Corporation” with authorized common stock of
200,000,000 shares at $.001 par value. On September 13, 2002 the name was
changed to “Starberrys Corporation” as part of a change in the authorized
capital stock by the addition of 50,000,000 shares of preferred stock with
a par
value of $.001. On August 18, 2004 the name of the Company was changed to
“Visualant Incorporated”. There are no preferred shares issued and the terms
have not been determined.
The
Company is in the development stage and has not commenced
operations.
2.
SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Accounting
Methods
The
Company recognizes income and expenses based on the accrual method of
accounting.
Dividend
Policy
The
Company has not adopted a policy regarding payment of dividends.
Basic
and Diluted Net Income (Loss) Per Share
Basic
net
income (loss) per share amounts are computed based on the weighted average
number of shares actually outstanding. Diluted net income (loss) per share
amounts are computed using the weighted average number of common shares and
common equivalent shares outstanding as if shares had been issued on the
exercise of common share rights unless the exercise becomes antidilutive and
then only the basic per share amounts are shown in the report.
Key
Employee Incentive Stock Option Plan
SFAS
No.
123, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation,” establishes accounting and
reporting standards for stock-based employee compensation plans. As permitted
by
SFAS No. 123, the Company accounts for such arrangements under APB Opinion
No.
25, “Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees” and related interpretations.
Cash
and Cash Equivalents
The
Company considers all highly liquid instruments purchased with a maturity,
at
the time of purchase, of less than three months, to be cash
equivalents.

2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES - continued
Income
Taxes
The
Company utilizes the liability method of accounting for income taxes. Under
the
liability method deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on
the
differences between financial reporting and the tax bases of the assets and
liabilities and are measured using the enacted tax rates and laws that will
be
in effect, when the differences are expected to reverse. An allowance against
deferred tax assets is recognized, when it is more likely than not, that such
tax benefits will not be realized.
On
June
30, 2006 the Company had a net operating loss available for carryforward of
$3,812,223. The tax benefit of approximately $1,219,000 from the loss carry
forward has been fully offset by a valuation reserve because the use of the
future tax benefit is doubtful since the Company has no operations. The loss
carryforward will expire in 2025.
Financial
Instruments
The
carrying amounts of financial instruments, including cash and accounts payable,
are considered by management to be their estimated fair values due to their
short term maturities.
Financial
and Concentrations Risk
The
Company does not have any concentration or related financial credit risk except
that it maintains cash in banks in amounts over the insured amounts of $100,000,
but are otherwise banks of high integrity.
Research
and Development Costs
Research
and development costs, including wages, supplies, depreciation of equipment
used
in the research activity, and any assigned overhead expense, are expensed as
incurred.
Revenue
Recognition
Revenue
will be recognized on the sale and delivery of a product or the completion
of a
service provided.
Advertising
and Market Development
The
Company will expense advertising and market development costs as
incurred.

Estimates
and Assumptions
Management
uses estimates and assumptions in preparing financial statements in accordance
with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
Those estimates and assumptions affect the reported amounts of the assets and
liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities, and the
reported revenues and expenses. Actual results could vary from the estimates
that were assumed in preparing these financial statements.
Foreign
Currency Translation
Part
of
the transactions of the Company were completed in Canadian dollars and have
been
translated to US dollars as incurred, at the exchange rate in effect at the
time, and therefore, no gain or loss from the translations is recognized. US
dollars are considered to be the functional currency.
Recent
Accounting Pronouncements
The
Company does not expect that the adoption of other recent accounting
pronouncements will have a material impact on its financial
statements.

DEVELOPMENT OF TECHNOLOGIES OWNED BY THE COMPANY
The

commercializing products and services related to color technology outside the

analysis software modeling which translate the invisible into the visible and
involving specialized and proprietary information and trade secrets which the

Employees” and related interpretations.
The
Company applies the intrinsic value method in accounting for its compensation
based stock options. If the Company had measured the options under the fair
value based method the net pro-forma operating loss and loss per share amounts
for the year ended June 30, 2006 would not have been materially
different.

7. CANCELLATION
OF AGREEMENT TO PURCHASE SHARES OF SCI
On
April
9, 2003 the Company signed a Purchase Agreement with Malaremastastarnas
Riksforening, the owner of all the shares of Skandinaviska Farginstituter AB
(the Scandinavian Colour Institute or "SCI") which owns the color notation
system Natural Color Systems ("NCS"), containing the terms of an acquisition
by
the Company or its assigns for a price of SEK 35,000,000 of all shares of SCI.
Pursuant to the terms of the agreements the Company made payments of $1,154,327
into an escrow account as part payment toward the purchase price. The Company
subsequently failed to make further payments on the contracts and by mutual
agreement the contracts were cancelled and the moneys paid were
expensed.
8. GOING
CONCERN
The
Company does not have the working capital for any future planned activity which
raises substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going
concern.
Continuation
of the Company as a going concern is dependant upon obtaining additional working
capital. The management of the Company has developed a strategy that it believes
will accomplish this objective through additional equity funding, payment of
debt by the issuance of common stock, and contributions to capital by officers,
which should enable the Company to conduct operations for the coming
year.

ITEM
2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OR PLAN
OF OPERATIONS
Overview
The
Company was incorporated on October 8, 1998 under the laws of the State of
Nevada. The Company's Articles of Incorporation currently provide that the
Company is authorized to issue 200,000,000 shares of Common Stock, par value
$0.001 per share, and 50,000,000 shares of Preferred Stock with such terms
as
will be specified by the Board of Directors at the time it acts to create a
specific series of the Preferred Stock to be issued. As of June 30, 2006 there
were 16,453,891 Common Shares and no Preferred Shares outstanding.
The
Company has no current commercial products. The
Company is in the business of researching, developing, acquiring, and
commercializing products and services related to color technology outside the
visible spectrum, using specialized narrow and N-IR and N-UV sensors and spatial
analysis software modeling which translate the invisible into the visible.
The
Company owns or has obtained an exclusive license to use this specialized and
proprietary color technology.
On
June
16, 2004, the Company entered into a contract with eVision Technologies
Corporation for the development of its color technology providing 3D
spectral-based pattern file creation and matching. Color pattern files can
be
created from any digital photograph or scan, without having to reprint,
recreate, recall or modify existing digital source of documents. Those pattern
files can then be matched against existing databases to detect and identify
crime, forgery, counterfeiting and other frauds. The Company believes that
its
technology has the potential to provide a new, accurate and fast detection
tool
for critical applications such as national security, forgery/fraud prevention,
brand protection, and product tampering. As of the date of this filing, no
material progress has been made towards such development.
On
December 16, 2005 the Company entered into a research and development contract
with RatLab LLC, a privately-owned research laboratory in Seattle, Washington.
The contract calls for monthly payments by the Company to RatLab LLC for an
initial research Phase 1 and 2, expected to last approximately six months
through June 2006. The contract also includes provisions for extending the
payments and research agreement for multiple phases, which could extend in
excess of one year. Under the contract, RatLab will perform research and
development using the Company’s existing intellectual property, as well as newly
developed research and technologies in order to assist the Company with the
commercialization of its core technologies in the areas of brand and forgery
protection, homeland security, medical diagnostics, and color-based file
creation and matching. If the Company is successful in raising additional funds,
it intends to extend the research and development contract with RatLab LLC
for
additional research phases.
RatLab
LLC is a research laboratory formed primarily by Dr. Thomas Furness, founder
and
former director of the Human Interface Technology Lab (HitLab) at the University
of Washington, and one of the leading researchers in the world in the area
of
human interface technology. Dr. Furness also is the founder of the Virtual
World
Consortium, an organization of more than fifty leading technology companies
and
enterprises dedicated to sharing and advancing research in many scientific
research areas important to the Company. The Company has been a member of the
Virtual World Consortium since July 2005.
13
ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OR PLAN
OF
OPERATIONS - continued
RatLab
LLC also employs other leading scientists and research associates in the areas
of computer science, imaging technology, and light sensing technology, who
will
be part of the team conducting research on behalf of the Company.
During
the quarter ended June 30, 2006, the Company, with the work and assistance
of
Ratlab LLC, filed three patent applications on its technologies.
The
Company intends to position its technology as both a revolutionary as well
as a
practical solution for security and fraud prevention applications and markets.
The Company’s current focus is to capitalize upon the potential business
opportunities in the areas of national security, document forgery/fraud, brand
protection, label fraud and product tampering.
The
Company has no revenue to date from its operations, and its ability to implement
its plans for the future will depend on the future availability of financing.
Such financing will be required to enable the Company to develop its technology
and acquire new businesses. The
Company intends to raise further funds through private placements of the
Company's common stock. The financing activities of the Company are current
and
ongoing, and it will expand and accelerate its marketing program as the timing
and amount of financing allow. However,
there can be no assurance that the Company will be successful in obtaining
additional capital for such technology development and/or business acquisitions
from the sale of its capital stock, or in otherwise raising substantial
capital.
The
Company’s cost to continue operations as they are now conducted is approximately
$60,000 per month, and the Company does not have
sufficient funds to cover existing operations. The Company
will
need to raise additional funds in order to continue its existing operations
and
to finance its plans to expand its operations for the next year. The Company
intends to raise the required funds by obtaining share capital from outside
sources. During the three months ended June 30, 2006, the Company raised $50,000
in additional funds through the sale of 66,667 common shares, and plans to
raise
a minimum of $500,000 and a maximum of $1,300,000 through the sale of common
shares during the remainder of 2006. If the Company is successful in raising
additional funds, the Company’s research and development efforts will continue
and expand.
If
the
Company is successful in raising additional funds, it intends to hire two to
three programmers and/or software engineers to accelerate its research and
development program and complete the development of its technology, as well
as
file additional patents and initiate marketing of the technology. If additional
personnel are hired, the Company expects to have a product available for
demonstration within the following six months. The Company’s software currently
is in modular form, and eventually will be developed into software development
kits specific to market/application needs. In lieu of such hirings, the Company
may contract with certain research organizations to perform development
activities on behalf of the Company.
In
addition to securing the necessary funds, commercialization of the Company’s
technology and the availability of a marketable product are dependent upon
a
number of factors including:
14
ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OR PLAN
OF
OPERATIONS - continued
(i) Securing
patent protection for the Company’s intellectual property. The Company has filed
three patent applications on its core technology, and expects to receive
notification from the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office sometime in 2007 as
to
whether a patent or patents will be granted.
(ii) Development
of new applications for the Company’s technology and pursuit of new markets and
market segments that will utilize the technology.
(iii) Ongoing
patent research and writing relating to the evolution of the Company’s
technology and its product application(s) as the Company’s technology is tested
and refined.
In
July
2005 the Company became a member of the University of Washington HIT Lab
Consortium. The Lab is supported in part by the Virtual Worlds Consortium,
a
group of over 45 companies or organizations that provide funding and direction
to the Lab. These companies include: Advanced Telecommunications Research (ATR),
Alias/Wavefront, American Express Company, Armstrong Aeromedical Research
Laboratory (AAMRL), Battelle, The Broken Hill Proprietary Company (BHP), Boeing,
Chevron Petroleum Technology Company, Change Tools, Eastman Kodak Company,
Fluke, Ford Motor Company, Franz, Fujitsu, Hewlett Packard, Hughes, Industrial

Science Center Inc., Samsung, SensAble Technologies, Sense8/EAI, Sharp
Corporation, Stratos, Sun Microsystems, Tektronix, Telecom Italia, Texas
Instruments, U.S. Navy, U.S. West Communications, VisionGate, and Virtual
Vision.
Membership
in the HIT Lab Consortium enables the Company to conduct specific testing and
research projects at the HIT Lab involving its color screening technology.
Other
potential benefits of membership in the Consortium include academic testing,
validation and certification of the Company’s technology, recommendations for
technology investments and additional applications for the Company’s technology,
and introductions to strategic partners and prospective customers in the
industry.

ITEM
2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OR PLAN
OF
OPERATIONS - continued
The
Company's financial statements are stated in United States Dollars and are
prepared
in accordance with United States Generally Accepted Accounting Principles.
RISK
FACTORS
There
are
certain inherent risks which will have an effect on the Company’s development in
the future and some of these risk factors are noted below but are not all
encompassing since there may be others unknown to management at the present
time
which might have an impact on the future on the development of the
Company.
1. The
Company is uncertain if it will be able to obtain additional capital necessary
for its development.
The
Company has incurred a cumulative net loss for the period from October 8, 1998
(date of inception) to June 30, 2006 of $3,812,223. For the three-month period
ended June 30, 2006, the Company had no revenues, insufficient funds to sustain
operations at their current level, and a net loss of $281,436. As a result
of
these losses and negative cash flows from operations, the Company’s ability to
continue operations and to continue as a going concern is dependent upon the
availability of and the Company’s ability to obtain additional capital from
outside sources until such time, if ever, as it achieves profitability.
2. Whether
the Company will continue to be a going concern
The
Company’s auditors’ concern in the audit opinion with regard to the Company’s
financial statements as at September 30, 2005, as to whether the Company will
be
able to raise sufficient funds to complete its objectives indicates that the
Company might not be able to continue as a going concern. Without adequate
future financing, the Company might cease to operate and the existing
shareholders and any future shareholders will lose their entire investment.
3. Some
of the present shareholders have acquired shares at extremely low
prices
Some
of
the present shareholders have acquired shares at prices ranging from $0.001
to
$0.25 per share whereas other shareholders have purchased their shares at $0.50
and $0.75 per share. In addition, the Company has issued 300,000 stock options
to a related party at $0.10 per share exercisable in whole or in part on or
before August 15, 2009.
16
ITEM
2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OR PLAN
OF
OPERATIONS - continued
4. Future
issuance of stock options, warrants and/or rights will have a diluting factor
on
existing and future shareholders
The
grant
and exercise of stock options, warrants or rights to be issued in the future
would likely result in a dilution of the value of the Company’s common shares
for all shareholders. The Company has established a Combined Incentive and
Non-Qualified Stock Option Plan, and may in the future issue further stock
options to officers, directors and consultants which will dilute the interest
of
the existing and future shareholders. Moreover, the Company may seek
authorization to increase the number of its authorized shares and to sell
additional securities and/or rights to purchase such securities at any time
in
the future. Dilution of the value of the common shares would likely result
from
such sales.
5. The
Company does not expect to declare or pay any dividends
The
Company has not declared or paid any dividends on its common stock since its
inception, and it does not anticipate paying any such dividends for the
foreseeable future.
6. Conflict
of interest
Some
of
the Directors of the Company are also directors and officers of other companies
and conflicts of interest may arise between their duties as directors of the
Company and as directors and officers of other companies.
7. Concentration
of ownership by management.
The
management of the Company, either directly or indirectly, owns 1,472,500 shares.
Even though this represents only 8.95% of the issued and outstanding shares,
it
might be difficult for any one shareholder to solicit sufficient votes to
replace the existing management. Therefore, any given shareholder may never
have
a voice in the direction of the Company.
8. Key-man
insurance
The
Company carries no key-man insurance. In the event that either Mr. Erickson,
Mr.
Brier, or Mr. Goldberg departed the Company or passed away, the Company would
not have the available funds to attract an individual of similar experience.
Management is considering obtaining key-man insurance once it has sufficient
funds to do so.
9. Limited
full time employees
The
only
director who works full time for the Company is its President, Ralph Brier.
The
other directors will devote time to the activities of the Company as required
from time to time. At the present time, the Company has no other full-time
employees other than Ralph Brier.
17
ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OR PLAN
OF
OPERATIONS - continued
10. Future
trading in the Company’s stock may be restricted by the SEC’s Penny Stock
Regulations which may limit a stockholder’s ability to buy and sell the
Company’s shares when, and if, the shares are eventually
quoted.
The
SEC
has adopted regulations which generally define "penny stock" to be any equity
security that has a market price (as defined) less than $5.00 per share or
an
exercise price of less than $5.00 per share, subject to certain exceptions.
The
Company’s shares are covered by the penny stock rules, which impose additional
sales practice requirements on broker-dealers who sell to persons other than
established customers and "accredited investors." The term "accredited investor"
refers generally to institutions with assets in excess of $5,000,000 or
individuals with a net worth in excess of $1,000,000 or annual income exceeding
$200,000 or $300,000 jointly with their spouse. The penny stock rules require
a
broker-dealer, prior to a transaction in a penny stock not otherwise exempt
from
the rules, to deliver a standardized risk disclosure document in a form prepared
by the SEC which provides information about penny stocks and the nature and
level of risks in the penny stock market.
The
broker-dealer also must provide the customer with current bid and offer
quotations for the penny stock, the compensation of the broker-dealer and its
salesperson in the transaction and monthly account statements showing the market
value of each penny stock held in the customer's account.
The
bid
and offer quotations, and the broker-dealer and salesperson compensation
information, must be given to the customer orally or in writing prior to
effecting the transaction and must be given to the customer in writing before
or
with the customer's confirmation. In addition, the penny stock rules require
that prior to a transaction in a penny stock not otherwise exempt from these
rules, the broker-dealer must make a special written determination that the
penny stock is a suitable investment for the purchaser and receive the
purchaser's written agreement to the transaction. These disclosure requirements
may have the effect of reducing the level of trading activity in the secondary
market for the stock that is subject to broker-dealers to trade in the Company’s
securities. The Company believes that the penny stock rules discourage investor
interest in and limit the marketability of, its common stock when, and if,
it is
called for trading. The Company feels that its shares will be considered to
be
penny stock when the shares are finally quoted.
11. Recently
Enacted and Proposed Regulatory Changes
Recently
enacted and proposed changes in the laws and regulations affecting public
companies, including the provisions of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 and rules
proposed by the SEC and NASDAQ could cause the Company to incur increased costs
as it evaluates the implications of new rules and responds to new requirements.
The new rules will make it more difficult for the Company to obtain certain
types of insurance, including directors and officers liability insurance, and
the Company may be forced to accept reduced policy limits and coverage or incur
substantially higher costs to obtain the same or similar coverage. The impact
of
these events could also make it more difficult for the Company to attract and
retain qualified persons to serve on the Company's board of directors, or as
executive officers. The Company is presently evaluating and monitoring
developments with respect to these new and proposed rules, and it cannot predict
or estimate the amount of the additional costs it may incur or the timing of
such costs.
