Nature of Operations Univec, Inc. (Company) produces, licenses and markets safer medical products, primarily syringes, on a global basis. Physician and Pharmaceutical Services, Inc. (PPSI), a subsidiary of the Company, provides fulfillment services for pharmaceutical samples, group purchasing arrangement (GPO) distribution and marketing for the pharmaceutical industry. Thermal Waste Technologies, Inc. (TWT), a subsidiary of the Company, markets a medical waste disposal unit. 2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial statements and with the instructions to Form 10-QSB and Item 310(b) of Regulation S-B. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation of the consolidated financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the interim periods presented have been included. These consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements of Univec, Inc. together with Management's Discussion and Analysis included in the Company's Form 10-KSB for the year ended December 31, 2002. Interim results are not necessarily indicative of the results for a full year. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates. 3. Net Loss Per Share Basic net loss per share was computed based on the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2003 and 2002. Dilutive net loss per share has not been presented because it was anti-dilutive. 4. Equipment Financing During August, 2003, the Company purchased all of the equipment previously being leased under a capitalized lease in exchange for the remaining lease payments. 5. Preferred Stock and Note Payable On August 12, 2003, the Company designated 2000 shares of Series E convertible preferred stock (Series E), with a par value of $.001 and a stated value of $1,000 per share. The Series E: (a) are non-voting, (b) have a liquidation preference equal to the stated value, plus unpaid cumulative dividends, (c) are entitled to receive dividends of 5%, per annum, of the liquidation value, prior to all other classes, and (d) are convertible into common stock through August 2006, when they become mandatorily convertible, at the lesser of $1.10 or market price, as defined, per share. The dividends may be paid in cash or common stock at the conversion price. 6 On August 14, 2003 the Company issued 522 shares of Series E in exchange for all the outstanding shares of the Company's Series B and Series C preferred stock and all unpaid cumulative dividends thereon. On August 14, 2003, the Company borrowed $85,000 from the Series E holder, with interest at 8%, per annum, and principal payable on August 14, 2005, in cash or convertible shares of common stock. The note is convertible into shares of common stock at $.17, per share, as adjusted. 6. Common Stock In August 2003, the Company sold 500,000 shares of common stock at $.04, per share, in cash, and a director converted a note payable of $5,000 into 250,000 shares of common stock, resulting in a loss of $15,000. As of September 30, 2003, an additional $10,000 may be converted into 500,000 shares. Effective April 2003, the Company granted options to purchase 2,000,000 shares of common stock to three officers, exercisable at $.04, per share, through April 2008, of which 1,333,334 are fully vested, 333,334 will vest in April 2004 and 333,333 will vest in April 2005, assuming the officer is still employed by the Company. The options were valued at $8,000. In addition, the Company granted these three officers the right to convert their loans into common stock at 110% of market value at the date of conversion. As of September 30, 2003, the aggregate value of such loans was $419,658. Effective April 2003, the Company granted options to purchase 500,000 shares of common stock to each of seven outside directors, exercisable at $.04, per share, through April 2008, which will vest over four years, assuming still a director of the Company. These options were valued at $14,000. 7. Litigation In December 2003, the Company assigned certain patents to settle a collection matter, as payment of a note and interest thereon, for an aggregate of $99,434. The Company also received a perpetual royalty fee license to use these patents with certain territorial restrictions. In addition, the Company assigned 85% of future royalties from another license previously sold. In July 2003, an employee commenced a collection action against the Company in the amount of approximately $195,000. The Company has asserted defenses, as well as claims in excess of the alleged collection amount, against the employee. Settlement discussions are continuing. In November 2003, a former consultant commenced a collection action against the Company for fees of $189,525, plus interest, and 785,750 shares of common stock of the Company or the value of the shares, plus costs and fees. All of these matters were previously accrued as incurred. 8. Sales For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2003, sales included approximately $4,000,000 and $9,800,000, respectively, to affiliated companies owned by a stockholder/officer of the Company. 7 Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis Results of Operations Condensed Consolidated Results of Operations Three months ended Nine months ended September 30, September 30, ---------------------------- --------------------------- 2003 2002 change 2003 2002 change -------- --------- ------- -------- -------- ----- Revenues $ 4,064,148 $ 712,145 471% $10,643,663 $2,226,160 378% --------- --------- ----------- --------- Expenses: Cost of Sales 4,054,338 608,630 566% 10,143,535 1,783,298 469% Marketing and Selling 109,546 75,571 45% 367,810 443,889 (17%) Product Development 2,850 9,519 (70%) 23,073 34,034 (32%) General and Administrative 224,063 199,183 12% 1,090,315 742,570 47% Interest Expense, Net 27,501 20,621 33% 71,425 68,569 4% Settlement of Litigation (202,385) Loss on Sale of Equipment 100,414 Forgiveness of Deferred Payroll (429,150) --------- --------- ----------- --------- Net Loss $ (354,150) $(201,379) (76%) $(1,052,495) $(315,079) (234%) ========= ========= =========== ========= 8 Revenues for Univec, Inc. ("Univec", "we" or "our") for the three month period ended September 30, 2003 increased by $ 3,352,003 (471%) as compared to the comparable period ended September 30, 2002, primarily as a result of the second full quarter of revenue of Physician and Pharmaceutical Services, Inc. ("PPSI") from its group purchasing arrangements (GPO) for the distribution of pharmaceuticals, which contributed revenues of $4,012,334. During the quarter ended September 30, 2003, PPSI revenue from its GPO continued to be a source of revenues for Univec, while the company continues to manufacture, distribute, sell and license auto-disabled and safety syringes and the (Demolizer) medical waste disposal units. Our international syringe product sales decreased $581,108 during the quarter due to relocation of our production, warehouse and administration facilities to Baltimore, Maryland. We believe the move will enable us to increase internal production capability that will help to build inventory levels. In the past, our insufficient inventory levels resulted in lost revenues. Syringe product sales consisted of 1cc locking clip syringe, a difficult-to-reuse syringe, and our other products. We are continuing to concentrate on both the sales of products and licensing of the technology of our proprietary auto-disable locking clip syringe internationally, in addition to focusing on the marketing of our new products, including the sliding sheath syringe in the United States. Univec Sliding Sheath syringes are designed to protect health care workers from accidental needle-stick injury as required by the needle stick prevention law. Gross profit for the quarter ended September 30, 2003 decreased by $93,705, to $9,810 from $103,515. The gross profit percentage decreased from 15% to none. The lower gross profit percentage results from the lower sales of our 1cc locking clip syringe and the lower gross profit contribution from PPSI's GPO revenue. Further, as a result of the previously mentioned relocation, gross profit on the Univec syringe sales decreased approximately $186,000 (148%) from $125,041 (18%). Gross profit from syringe sales decreased primarily as a result of continuing depreciation of $43,642 and non-variable overhead costs of $76,290. We anticipate gross profit levels to remain at current levels until we increase our market penetration, increase our prices and/or realize anticipated production or economic benefits as a result of our relocation. Sales for the nine months ended September 30, 2003 increased by $8,417,503 (378%) as compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2002, primarily as a result of PPSI's GPO revenue, which commenced in 2003. Sales of new products, including the sliding sheath syringe, medical disposal units (Demolizer) and PPSI's GPO, comprised 99% of the total sales for the three month period ending September 30, 2003 and 91% of the total sales for the nine month period ended September 30, 2003. As a result of the acquisitions of PPSI and Thermal Waste Technologies, Inc. ("TWT"), we have broadened our product bases and we anticipate increases in sales on a period by period basis if we can increase our market penetration. Marketing and selling costs increased $33,975 (45%) over the comparable three month period ended September 30, 2002. However, such costs decreased $76,079 (17%) over the nine month period ended September 30, 2002. These nine month decreases were primarily the result of decreases in consulting fees, advertising, commissions, freight and travel expenses offset in part by increases in marketing salaries. 9 Product development expense decreased as a result of reduced expenditures for patent legal fees and product testing. As the Company continues to focus on marketing and sales of existing products, product development expense will continue to remain relatively low. General and administrative costs for the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2003 increased $24,880 (12%) and $347,745 (47%), respectively, primarily resulting from developing the PPSI GPO. This increase during the nine month period was offset in part by payroll expenditure reductions of $79,975 (32%) and professional fee reductions of $88,919 (44%). Interest expense, net, increased by $6,880 (33%) and $2,856 (4%) during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2003, respectively, from the comparative periods in 2002, as a result of increases in borrowings offset by reductions in interest rates. Non-recurring forgiveness of deferred payroll of $429,150 by two officer/directors of the Company and a $202,385 litigation settlement during the nine months ended September 30, 2002 net of the $100,414 loss on sale of equipment reduced expenditures during the nine months ended September 30, 2002. Net loss for the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2003 increased by $152,771 (76%) and $737,416 (234%), respectively, as compared to the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2002. Without considering the nonrecurring items, the net loss increased by $152,771 (76%) and $206,295 (24%), respectively. The increases in the loss were primarily related to the costs of relocating the production, warehouse and administrative site and developing PPSI's GPO. Liquidity and Capital Resources The working capital deficit of $1,070,807 at December 31, 2002, increased to a deficit of $1,945,131 (82%) at September 30, 2003, primarily from net increases in notes and loans payable and deferred compensation and decreases in accounts receivable, resulting from the relocation and developing the PPSI GPO. Net cash used in operating activities decreased by $129,726 (30%) to $299,718 for the nine months ended September 30, 2003 from $429,444 for the nine months ended September 30, 2002, primarily due to the reduction in accounts payable and accrued expenses, offset in part by the costs of developing the PPSI GPO and an increase in deferred payroll. Net cash provided by financing activities decreased by $192,604 (47%) to $218,426 for the nine months ended September 30, 2003 from $411,030 for the nine months ended September 30, 2002. This decrease resulted from an approximate $270,000 reduction in proceeds from equity securities and an increase in payments of borrowings of approximately $121,000, offset by an approximate $198,000 increase in new borrowings. 10 Although revenue increased with the addition of PPSI's GPO operations and the continued marketing, sales and licensing of existing safety syringes and the Demolizer, we do not anticipate positive net cash flow from operating activities in 2003. We are actively seeking bank and/or private financing that, if received, will be utilized to expand production, which is needed to increase revenue. The relatively low trading price and volume of the common shares hampered our ability to raise equity capital. We are currently experiencing short term insufficient working capital. Although liabilities have increased by approximately $150,000 since September 30, 2003, approximately $1,400,000 of current liabilities are due to certain officers, directors, affiliated companies under their control and others who are not currently seeking repayment, and approximately $200,000 has been paid or settled. In addition, we are in the process of attempting to complete two debt financings of $1,000,000 to be used for working capital and production expansion. We are also continuing our search for additional debt and/or equity financing. Although there is no assurance that the these financings will actually close or others will occur, we believe our current actions, together with increasing revenues, will enable us to overcome our short term insufficient working capital. If we cannot, we may have to substantially curtail our operations or sell certain of our assets. Except for the historical information contained herein, the matters discussed in this report are forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties, including market acceptance of our products, timely development and reception of new products, impact of competitive products, development of an effective organization, interruptions to production, our ability to increase internal production capability that will help to build inventory levels, our ability to increase our market penetration, our ability to increase our prices, whether we realize anticipated production or economic benefits as a result of our relocation and other risks detailed from time to time in our SEC reports and our Registration Statements. 11 Item 3. Controls and Procedures. Based on their evaluation required by Rule 13a-15(b) or 15d-15(b) under the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934 (the "Exchange Act"), management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) were effective as of the end of the period covered by this report. 12 PART II OTHER INFORMATION Item 1. Legal Proceedings On July 17, 2003, the Company was advised that an employee, Jonathan Bricken ("Bricken"), had filed a claim for unpaid wages with the Connecticut Department of Labor, Wage and Workplace Standards Division. The claim is in the amount of approximately $182,808 for wages, plus approximately $12,000 related to health and dental insurance premiums, plus interest. The Company has asserted defenses, as well as claims against Bricken, including a claim that Bricken entered into one or more agreements with third parties on behalf of the Company without notifying or obtaining the approval of either the Company's President or Board of Directors, resulting in damages to the Company in excess of the alleged liability to Bricken. The President of the Company and Bricken met with the Connecticut Department of Labor in an effort to resolve the matter without immediate success. Although negotiations are continuing, there is no assurance that the matter will be resolved in the Company's favor. Litigation, if necessary, would be adverse to the Company in light of our need for short-term capital. In November 2003, Allegent Growth Strategies, L.L.C. ("Allegent") served a complaint in the Supreme Court of New York, County of New York (index number 603394-03) against the Company and David Dalton, S. Robert Grass and Michael Lesisko, as officers of the Company, seeking (a) compensation for consulting services in the amount of $189,525 plus interest from August 1, 2001, (b) 785,750 shares of the Company's common stock and/or the value of said shares, and (c) costs, disbursements and attorneys fees. Should the Company be unsuccessful in defending the claim, it will be adverse to the Company in light of our needs for short-term capital. All such amounts have been accrued. Item 2. Changes in Securities In August 2003, the Company sold 500,000 shares of common stock to an accredited investor for $20,000. These shares were sold in reliance on the exemption from registration afforded by Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933. In August 2003, the Company issued 250,000 shares of common stock to a director in exchange for cancellation of a note payable of $5,000. These shares were issued in reliance on the exemption from registration afforded by Section 4(2)of the Securities Act of 1933. On August 14, 2003 the Company issued 522 shares of Series E to an accredited investor in exchange for all the outstanding shares of the Company's Series B and Series C preferred stock and all unpaid cumulative dividends thereon. These shares were issued in reliance on the exemptions from registration afforded by Section 3(a)(9) and Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933. On August 14, 2003, the Company borrowed $85,000 from the Series E holder, with interest at 8%, per annum, and principal payable on August 14, 2005, in cash or convertible into shares of common stock. The note is convertible into shares of common stock at $.17, per share, as adjusted. The note was issued in reliance on the exemption from registration afforded by Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933. 13 No commissions or fees were incurred or discounts given in connection with these sales of securities. Item 4. Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders. On August 5, 2003 the Company conducted its annual meeting for the year 2002. The following directors were elected for the ensuing year. The election tabulation of the directors election is as follows: Name For Withheld David Dalton 27,115,269 15,373 John Frank 27,115,269 15,373 Alan Gold 27,115,269 15,373 S.

In October 2003, a judgment was entered by the Supreme Court of the State of New York, County of Suffolk, and in November 2003, a judgment was entered by the Circuit Court for the City of Baltimore in the State of Maryland (the "Judgments"), each ordering the Company to pay approximately $99,434 to Syrinter, Ltd. ("Syrinter"), as a result of the Company's failure to make payments to Syrinter under a promissory note dated July 16, 2003, in the principal amount of $96,692, and a security agreement of the same date. In December 2003, the Company and Syrinter entered into a settlement agreement and a license agreement, pursuant to which Syrinter acquired ownership of certain of the Company's patents that were collateral under the security agreement, on the condition that the Judgments would be lifted, the Company's obligation to Syrinter was fully discharged, the Company retained ownership of all of its equipment that was collateral under the security agreement and the Company acquired a perpetual, royalty-free license to use the assigned patents within certain territorial restrictions.
