NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Note 1. Basis of Presentation
The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements of Hypertension Diagnostics, Inc. (the Company or HDI) have been prepared in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q and do not include all the information and notes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, these unaudited financial statements reflect all adjustments, consisting only of normal and recurring adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of the financial statements. The results of operations for the three months ended September 30, 2012 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the full year ending June 30, 2013. For further information, refer to the financial statements and notes included in the Companys Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2012, as amended. The policies described in that report are used for preparing quarterly reports.
On July 14, 2011, the Company formed HDI Plastics, Inc. (HDIP or Plastics), as a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company. HDIP commenced plastic processing operations in October 2011. HDIP is the principal operating business of the Company. HDIP is engaged in the processing of recycled plastic material including re-processing into pellet-form for sale to manufacturing customers.
Note 2. Going Concern
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, assuming the Company will continue as a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. For the quarter ended September 30, 2012, we incurred losses from continuing operations of $447,957. At September 30, 2012, we had an accumulated deficit of $30,011,138 and negative working capital of $227,525. Our ability to continue as a going concern is dependent on our ability to raise the required additional capital or debt financing to meet short-term needs to relocate our plastics processing facility to a new site and then restart the facility which would include hiring production works. The Company is currently seeking to raise an additional $750,000 through an issuance of 14.5% Series II Subordinated Notes in order to meet the cash flow needs to restart our plastics business. As of this filing, we have raised $210,000 related to these notes. If we raise additional funds through the issuance of equity or convertible debt securities, the percentage ownership of our current shareholders could be reduced, and such securities might have rights, preferences or privileges senior to our common stock. Additional financing may not be available upon acceptable terms, or at all. If adequate funds are not available or are not available on acceptable terms, we may not be able to adequately restart our plastics business, which could significantly and materially restrict our operations.
Note 3. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies:
Discontinued Operations- On August 26, 2011 (the Effective Date), the Company entered into and closed a definitive Asset Purchase Agreement (the Agreement) providing for the sale of selected assets from our Hypertension Diagnostics Business to Cohn Prevention Center, LLC (CPC), a Minnesota company, controlled by a Jay Cohn, a director and stockholder of HDI as of the Effective Date. See additional terms of this agreement in Note 4. As a result of the sale of selected assets of our medical device business, we have reclassified our previously reported financial results to exclude those operations affected by the sale. These results are presented on an historical basis as a separate line in our statements of operations and balance sheets entitled Discontinued Operations. HDI has retained rights to its intellectual property including the rights to royalty payments from CPC. HDI expects to pursue additional royalty opportunities although there is no assurance it will be successful. Ongoing income derived from the Companys intellectual property is reflected as continuing operations. All of the information in the financial statements and notes to the financial statements has been revised to reflect only the results of our continuing operations from our new recycled plastics process business.
Principles of Consolidation
The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiary (HDI Plastics, Inc.), after elimination of all intercompany accounts, transactions, and profits.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
There were no new accounting standards issued or effective during the quarter ended September 30, 2012 that had, or are expected to have a material impact on the Companys results of operations, financial condition or cash flows.
Note 4. Discontinued Operations
On August 26, 2011, (the Effective Date), the Company entered into and closed a definitive Asset Purchase Agreement (the Agreement) providing for the sale of selected assets of our medical device business to Cohn Prevention Center, LLC, a Minnesota limited liability company (CPC), controlled by Jay Cohn, a director and stockholder of HDI as of the Effective Date. The terms of the Agreement provided for the sale of selected operating assets of the Companys medical device business (including inventory but excluding cash, accounts receivable, and intellectual property). The Agreement does not limit the ability of CPC to sell the purchased inventory to any customer or in any market where they can be legally sold. Additionally, CPC assumed all warranty and on-going product support required by regulatory agencies related to such inventory.
In connection with the Agreement, CPC paid the Company on the Effective Date a cash payment of $125,000 and issued a secured promissory note (non-interest bearing) to the Company in the amount of either $150,000 due in 12 months or $200,000 due in 18 months at the discretion of CPC (See Note 5). We received a letter on July 27, 2012 from CPC indicating they will be paying $200,000 due February 26, 2013. Nearly all of the proceeds received on the Effective Date were allocated to cover severance and other costs related to the transactions contemplated by the Agreement. Severance costs included an agreement by the Company to pay to Greg Guettler, its former Chief Operating Officer, nine months salary and health benefits. The Company paid Mr. Guettler $119,463 to fulfill the agreement on March 1, 2012. Pursuant to the Agreement, CPC agreed to pay to the Company a cash payment of $1,200 upon the sale of each of the first 50 units of inventory sold by CPC within 30 days of receipt of cash from such sale. The Company has agreed to pay Mr. Guettler 10% of the royalty proceeds received by the Company less applicable transaction expenses related to such sales. The Company has earned royalty income of $2,400 less 10% due to Greg Guettler for three months ended September 30, 2012
The Company and CPC also entered into a Sublicense Agreement on the Effective Date (the Sublicense Agreement), pursuant to which the Company granted to CPC a limited license to use the Companys intellectual property, technology, and technical know-how related to the Companys arterial elasticity measurement technology exclusively in CPC clinics and research related exclusively to CPC clinics. All other applications of the Companys intellectual property, technology and technical know-how have been retained by the Company for the benefit of the Company. The Sublicense Agreement also provides that any development of a next generation arterial measurement device, however, would be limited exclusively to use and sale within the CPC network of clinics and to research exclusively related to CPC clinics.
CPC and the Company also entered into a Sublease Agreement as of the Effective Date, which permits CPC to lease the Waters II Suite 108, Eagan, Minnesota facility of the Company during the remaining term of the Companys lease, which expires October 31, 2014, on the same economic terms as the underlying lease with HDI which remains as an obligation of the Company.
Upon the closing of this transaction, the Company has limited remaining operations (collection of royalties under the license agreement) related to its medical device business and currently is seeking additional opportunities to license its proprietary technology, intellectual property, technical know-how and other core assets, although there is no assurance these efforts will be successful.
In connection with the sale transaction, the Company recorded the following loss which is reported as Loss on sale of discontinued operations in the Consolidated Statements of Operations for the three months ended September 30, 2011:

The Company does not have any existing assets of discontinued operations at September 30, 2012. The only remaining liabilities of discontinued operations as of September 30, 2012 pertain to the deferred compensation of the former CEO. (See Note 9).
Note 5. Notes Receivable related party
In connection with the Asset Purchase Agreement between HDI and Cohn Prevention Centers, LLC, Cohn paid HDI on the Effective Date a cash payment of $125,000 and issued a non-interest bearing secured promissory note due to HDI in the amount of either $150,000 in 12 months or $200,000 in 18 months, at the discretion of CPC. The promissory note is reflected at an imputed discount rate of 15% based upon the amount due 12 months following the Effective Date, and was originally recorded as a net note receivable of $127,500. The balance of the Note at September 30, 2012 is $150,000. The Company received a letter from CPC on July 27, 2012 indicating CPCs intent to pay the $200,000 due February 26, 2013. The Company has elected to not recognize the additional income forthcoming on this Note until the cash is collected in the future.

The Company recognized a loss of $80,598 in the three months ended September 30, 2012 for the abandonment of leasehold improvements related to the property at 5330 Fleming Court, Austin, TX due to the termination of lease and the surrender of the property.
Note 7. Litigation and Contingencies
The Company is involved in various legal actions in the ordinary course of its business.
On March 28, 2012, HDIP received a Notice of Violation related to its sole processing facility located at 5330 Fleming Court, Austin, Texas, from the City of Austin Code Compliance Department. The Notice of Violation alleges violations of Austins City Code and failures to obtain required permits and a Certificate of Occupancy based upon the current use of the processing facility. The violation primarily relates to the electrical design and capacity of the building. The Notice of Violation required HDIP to vacate the processing facility until such alleged violations are cured. HDIP unsuccessfully attempted to negotiate temporary permits allowing it to continue operations while it addresses the alleged violations identified in the Notice of Violation. On March 29, 2012, HDIP ceased processing operations at the processing facility. On April 2, 2012, HDIP notified approximately 70 of its employees working at the facility of their termination and they were paid their outstanding vacation pay, however, no severance was paid. The violations have not been satisfied and the Company has begun the process of moving their operations to a new location in Taylor, TX. There is no guarantee when or if the moving of the operations of the Company will be complete. At this time, the Company has not been assessed any fines or penalties by the City of Austin, but no assurances can be made that they will not do so in the future. At the time of this filing, the Company is still not operating a processing facility and only has a few small brokered sales.
Because the City of Austin required HDIP to vacate the property at 5330 Fleming Court, the landlord, Flemtex Properties denied access to the premises; therefore, the Company did not pay rent and utilities for April and May 2012. On May 30, 2012, the Company received a Notice of Termination of Lease from Flemtex, for failure to pay rent and reimbursable costs. The letter stated that the Lease was terminated effective May 31, 2012, and that HDI was to quit and surrender the Leased Premises to the Landlord in accordance with the requirements of the Lease on May 31, 2012, and to remove all of the Tenants personal property from the Leased Premises. The Company is in the process of negotiating a final Termination Agreement related to its Austin lease. The Company has been informed that the landlord is withholding a final release of all obligations of the Company related to the lease until all of the discharge water is removed from the property, which was completed as of October 31, 2012. The Company has accrued as of September 30, 2012, the utility and rent payments due for April and May 2012 totaling $139,493.
On July 12, 2012, a representative of the Travis County, (Texas) Attorney Office, Texas Parks and Wildlife, and the Texas Commission on Environmental Quality (TEEQ) searched the Companys Austin offices pursuant to an affidavit signed by a representative of Texas Parks and Wildlife seeking evidence that the Company committed the offense of intentional or knowing unauthorized discharge of a pollutant under Section 7.145 of the Texas Water Code. No charge of illegal discharge has been made against the Company. The Company has not been contacted further relative to alleged discharge and strongly denies any such discharge occurred. As of October 31, 2012 the removal and disposal of the wastewater at the Companys former facility was completed.
Note 8. Stock Options
The Company regularly grants stock options to individuals under various plans as described in Note 13 of the Companys Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended June 30, 2012, as amended. The Company recognizes share-based payments, as compensation costs for transactions, including grants of employee stock options, to be recognized in the financial statements. Stock-based compensation expense is measured based on the fair value of the equity or liability instrument issued. Share-based compensation arrangements include: stock options, restricted share plans, performance-based awards, share appreciation rights, and employee share purchase plans. The Company measures the cost of employee services received in exchange for stock options based on the grant-date fair value of the award, and expenses the cost over the period in which the employee is required to provide services for the award. The Company uses the Black-Scholes option-pricing model that meets the fair value objective.
10
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
During the three months ended September 30, 2012 and the three months ended September 30, 2011, there were no stock options granted. The Company recognized compensation expense of $0 for the three months ended September 30, 2012, and $64,625 for the three months ended September 30, 2011, which were related to options previously granted.
Note 9.
Deferred Compensation Liability
The Company is a party to a Deferred Equity Compensation Agreement with its former CEO, Mark N. Schwartz (the Agreement), whereby the Company granted 225,000 phantom shares of its common stock to Mr. Schwartz for every month of employment for the period January 1, 2010 through September 30, 2011. Mr. Schwartz resigned as the Companys CEO effective September 22, 2011 and as a result, agreed as of October 1, 2011 that no additional phantom shares will be granted him under the Agreement. Under the Agreement, a cash payment will be made equal to the price per share of the Companys common stock times the number of phantom shares accrued at the earliest of certain events to occur.
The Company has accrued a total deferred compensation liability of $552,631 at September 30, 2012, which is the fair market value of 13,125,000 phantom shares outstanding as of September 30, 2012 ($525,000) plus $27,631 of accrued payroll taxes related to the agreement. Due to the increase in the price of the Companys common stock during the quarter ended September 30, 2012 (increase from $0.02 to $ 0.04), the Company recorded a net compensation expense of $271,988 for the quarter ended September 30, 2012. For the quarter ended September 30, 2011, the Company recorded a net compensation expense of $622,500. An increase in the Companys common stock price would cause an increase in the deferred compensation, while a decrease in the Companys stock price would cause a decrease in the deferred compensation liability. Expenses related to the Deferred Compensation arrangement with its former CEO are accounted for as part of Discontinued Operations.
Under the original terms of Mr. Schwartzs deferred equity compensation agreement, payment of the deferred compensation benefit would occur upon one of the following events: i) execution of a definitive agreement resulting in a change of control of the Companys common stock; ii) termination of employment; iii) death of the CEO; or iv) no later than January 1, 2012. Upon one of these events, a cash payment over 24 months was to be made to the CEO equal to the trading price per share of the Companys common stock times the number of phantom stock shares accrued to date. Mr. Schwartz and the Company modified the original Agreement on December 31, 2011, whereby Mr. Schwartz agreed to eliminate the requirement for a cash payment as of a date certain pursuant to the Agreement. This deferred compensation is classified as a long-term liability with no definitive payout date specified. The Company and Mr. Schwartz are negotiating a permanent settlement to satisfy both parties.
Note 10. Factoring Line of Credit
On October 10, 2011, HDI Plastics, Inc. entered into an Accounts Receivable Discount line facility with Charter Capital Holdings, L.P. (Charter). Under the terms of the full-recourse financing agreement, which is guaranteed by HDI, Charter advances to HDIP and amount equal to 80% of eligible pledged receivables up to a total advance of $1 million. Charter retains a priority and perfected security interest in all accounts receivable and inventory of HDI Plastics, Inc. The financing cost under the agreement is 0.59% for each 10-day period or an approximate annualized interest cost of approximately 21.25%. The Company began borrowing under this facility in November 2011. The outstanding balance as of September 30, 2012 is $5,288 and $0 as of June 30, 2012.
Note 11. Note Payable - Subordinated Debt
In December 2011, the Company commenced a private placement offering of 14.5% Five Year Subordinated Notes with Warrants to its existing preferred shareholders, directors of the Company and certain other accredited investors. The notes are issued by HDIP and are guaranteed by the Company. Interest is payable monthly in cash. The offering was completed February 10, 2012 and resulted in the issuance of $833,600 in notes and five-year warrants to purchase an aggregate of 11,908,572 shares of the Companys common stock with an exercise price of $.07 per share. The notes are due
five years from the closing date at 105% of face value. The total estimated value of the warrants using the Black-Scholes Option Pricing Model, with a volatility rate of 153%, had an estimated fair value of $0.03 per warrant. After calculating the relative fair value of the debt and warrants, $252,393 was recorded as a debt discount to the notes for the warrants. The discount is being amortized over the term of the debt using the effective interest method.

Terms for the Series II Subordinated Notes also include the issuance of five-year warrants to purchase shares of the Companys common stock with an exercise price of $.035 per share. As of September 30, 2012, the Company had issued to directors of the Company $180,000 in Series II Subordinated Notes which included warrants to purchase 5,142,858 shares of Company stock. The notes are due
two years from the closing date at 105% of face value. The total estimated value of the warrants using the Black-Scholes Option Pricing Model, with a volatility rate of 178%, had an estimated fair value of $0.05 per warrant. After calculating the relative fair value of the debt and warrants, $108,765 and was recorded as a debt discount to the notes for the warrants. The discount is being amortized over the term of the debt using the effective interest method.

Note 12. Net Income (Loss) Per Share
Basic net income (loss) per share is computed using the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during each period. Diluted net income (loss) per share would normally include the dilutive effect of common shares potentially issuable upon the exercise of stock options, warrants, or the conversion of preferred stock.
The following table provides a reconciliation of the numerators and denominators used in calculating basic and diluted earnings per share at September 30, 2012 and 2011.

At September 30, 2012 and 2011, there were 611,390 shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock outstanding. Using the preferred stock conversion ratio of 12:1, the common stock equivalents attributable to these preferred shares are 7,336,680 at September 30, 2012 and 2011. However, they would be anti-dilutive and therefore have been excluded from diluted earnings per share.

|
At September 30, 2012, there were common stock equivalents attributable to outstanding stock options of 4,303,105 common shares and there were 8,352,914 common shares at September 30, 2011. All of the remaining stock options are anti-dilutive at September 30, 2012 and 2011, due to the loss from continuing operations, and therefore have been excluded from diluted earnings per share.
|
(3)
|
At September 30, 2012 and September 30, 2011, there were outstanding stock warrants of 17,051,430 and 18,498,636, respectively. The warrants would not be common stock equivalents at September 30, 2012 and 2011 using the treasury stock method.

Note 13. Subsequent Events
Subsequent to September 30, 2012 the Company had issued a total of $30,000 in Series II Subordinated Notes which included warrants to purchase an aggregated of 857,142 shares of Company common stock (See Note 11).
