THE
COMPANY
Over
the
past twenty two years, Implant Sciences Corporation has both developed and
acquired technologies using ion implantation and thin film coatings. Initially
this technology was used in semiconductor processing but soon expanded to
include various medical device applications including the modification of
orthopedic joint implant surfaces to reduce polyethylene wear generation and
the
manufacture of products for radiation therapy treatments. Our latest application
of this technology includes the manufacturing of trace explosives detection
equipment.
We
currently provide ion implantation services to numerous semiconductor
manufacturers, research laboratories and universities. In October 2004 and
March
2005, we acquired two California semiconductor companies, Core Systems (“Core”)
and Accurel Systems International (“Accurel”), respectively. In May 2007, we
sold our Accurel subsidiary for a total purchase price of approximately
$12,705,000. Other applications of our ion beam technology had been in the
area
of temporary brachytherapy products. In June 2007, we closed this product line.
Since
May
1999, we have been performing research to develop a trace explosives detector,
which could be used to detect hidden bombs in airports and other public places.
This technology is yet another application of our ion source technology. At
present, we have developed both portable and bench-top systems for use in
airports and Department of Defense facilities and have successfully marketed
these products both domestically and internationally. In fiscal 2006, as part
of
a plan to reduce manufacturing costs, we transitioned the production of these
products to a contract manufacturer. As we continue to sell and deliver these
products, we work both independently and in conjunction with various government
agencies, to develop the next generation of trace explosives detectors and
identify new applications for our proprietary technology.
RISK
FACTORS
An
investment in us involves a high degree of risk and common stock should not
be
purchased by anyone who cannot afford the loss of their entire investment.
You
should carefully consider all of the following risk factors discussed below
as
well as other information in the prospectus before purchasing the common stock.
The risks described below are not all of the risks facing us. Additional risks,
including those that are currently not known to us or that we currently deem
immaterial, may also impair our business operations.
The
Company has received a modified audit opinion on its ability to continue
as a going concern.
The
audit
report our independent registered public accounting firm issued on our audited
financial statements for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2006 contains a
modification regarding our ability to continue as a going concern. This
modification indicates that there is substantial doubt on the part of our
independent registered public accounting firm that we can continue as a going
concern in that we did not have sufficient cash and liquid assets at June 30,
2006, to cover our operating capital requirements for the next twelve-month
period and if sufficient cash cannot be obtained we would have to substantially
alter our operations, or we may be forced to discontinue operations. Such
an opinion from our independent registered public accounting firm may limit
our
ability to access certain types of financing, or may prevent us from obtaining
financing on acceptable terms. There can be no assurance that the auditor will
not qualify their opinion in the future.
We
do not operate at a profit and do not expect to be profitable for some time.
During
the nine months ended March 31, 2007, we had a net loss from continuing
operations of approximately
$4,419,000. We plan to further increase our expenditures to complete
the development and commercialization of our new products, and to broaden our
sales and marketing capabilities. As a
result,
we believe that we will likely incur losses over the next several quarters.
Our accumulated deficit as of March 31, 2007 is approximately $40,850,000.
Management
believes that our existing cash resources, cash proceeds received from the
sale
of Accurel, cash from operations and the availability on our revolving line
of
credit will meet working capital requirements over the next twelve months.
However, unanticipated decreases in operating revenues, unanticipated decreases
in the market value of our common stock, delays in government funding of grants,
increases in expenses or further delays in product development may adversely
impact our cash position and require further cost reductions. No assurance
can
be given that we will be able to operate profitably on a consistent
basis.
Intense
competition and rapid technological change could harm our financial
performance.
In
our
semiconductor market we compete with many companies, including companies that
have in-house capabilities to implant, diagnose and repair their own wafers.
In
our explosives detection equipment market, we compete with many companies,
including companies that have substantially greater capital resources, greater
research and development, manufacturing and marketing resources and experience
and greater name recognition than we do. In addition, we expect new entrants
into our markets. There can be no assurance that our competitors will not
succeed in developing or marketing technologies and products that are more
effective than our products or that would render our products obsolete or
noncompetitive. Moreover, there can be no assurance that we will be able to
price our products and services at or below the prices of competing products
and
technologies in order to facilitate market acceptance. Accordingly, our success
will depend, in part, on our ability to respond quickly to technological changes
through the development and introduction of new products and enhancements.
Product development involves a high degree of risk, and there can be no
assurance that our new product development efforts will result in any
commercially successful products. Our failure to compete or respond to
technological change in an effective manner would have a material adverse effect
on our business and results of operations.
Our
medical products and technologies may not be accepted by the medical community
which could harm our financial performance.
There
can
be no assurance that our medical coatings will achieve acceptance, or continue
to receive acceptance, by the medical community and market acceptance generally.
The degree of market acceptance for our products and services will also depend
upon a number of factors, including the receipt and timing of regulatory
approvals and the establishment and demonstration in the medical community
and
among health care payers of the clinical safety, efficacy and cost effectiveness
of our products. Certain of the medical indications that can be treated by
our
devices or devices treated using our coatings can also be treated by other
medical procedures. There can be no assurance that our devices or technologies
will be able to replace such established treatments or that physicians, health
care payers, patients or the medical community in general will accept and
utilize our devices or any other medical products that may be developed or
treated by us even if regulatory and reimbursement approvals are obtained.
Long-term market acceptance of our products and services will depend, in part,
on the capabilities, operating features and price of our products and
technologies as compared to those of other available products and services.
Failure of our products and technologies to gain market acceptance would have
a
material adverse effect on our business and results of operations.
Our
explosives detection products and technologies may not be accepted by government
agencies, airports or airlines which could harm our future financial
performance.
There
can
be no assurance that our explosives detection systems will achieve acceptance
by
the domestic and international airports, government agencies and airlines,
and
market acceptance generally. The degree of market acceptance for our explosives
detection products and services will also depend upon a number of factors,
including the receipt and timing of regulatory approvals and the establishment
and demonstration of the ability of our proposed device to detect trace
explosives residues on personnel, baggage and other cargo prior to embarking
on
aircraft. Our failure to commercially develop our product to compete
successfully with respect to throughput, the ability to scan personnel, baggage
and other cargo carried onto airlines, and portability could delay, limit or
prevent market acceptance. Moreover, the market for explosives detection systems
technology, especially trace detection technology, is largely undeveloped,
and
we believe that the overall demand for explosives detection systems technology
will depend significantly upon public perception of the risk of terrorist
attacks. There can be no assurance that the public will perceive the threat
of
terrorist bombings to be substantial or that the airline industry and
governmental agencies will actively pursue explosives detection systems
technology. Long-term market acceptance of our products and services will
depend, in part, on the capabilities, operating features and price of our
products and technologies as compared to those of other available products
and
services. As a result, there can be no assurance, if the currently developed
prototype product is brought to a commercial product, that we will be able
to
achieve market penetration, revenue growth or profitability.
Our
future profitability depends on whether our products can successfully compete
in
the commercial marketplace.
We
currently provide ion implantation services for ion implantation of
semiconductors and medical devices. We plan to market radiopaque coatings,
and
explosive detection systems that may require substantial further investment
in
research, product development, preclinical and clinical testing and governmental
regulatory approvals prior to being marketed and sold. Our ability to increase
revenues and achieve profitability and positive cash flow will depend, in part,
on our ability to complete such product development efforts, obtain such
regulatory approvals, and establish manufacturing and marketing programs and
gain market acceptance for such proposed products.
The
market for explosive detection systems is intensely competitive and is
characterized by continuously developing technology and frequent introductions
of new products and features. We expect competition to increase as other
companies introduce additional and more competitive products in the explosive
detection systems market as we develop the capabilities and enhancements of
our
trace detection systems. Each of our competitors may have substantially greater
financial resources than us.
We
believe that our ability to compete in the explosive detection systems market
is
based upon such factors as: product performance, functionality, quality and
features; quality of customer support services, documentation and training;
and
the capability of the technology to appeal to broader applications beyond the
inspection of passengers, baggage, and cargo carried on airlines. Although
we
believe that our currently developed product has all of the capabilities to
meet
the United States government’s decree that all passengers, baggage, and cargo
carried on airlines must be screened thoroughly, certain of our competitors
may
have an advantage over our existing technology with respect to these factors.
There can be no assurance that we will be successful in convincing potential
customers that our products will be superior to other systems given all of
the
necessary performance criteria, that new systems with comparable or greater
performance, lower price and faster or equivalent throughput will not be
introduced, or that, if such products are introduced, customers will not delay
or cancel potential orders for us yet to be commercialized system. Further,
there can be no assurance that we will be able to bring to commercialization
and
further enhance our product to better compete on the basis of cost, throughput,
accommodation of detection of passengers, baggage or other cargo carried onto
airlines, or that we will otherwise be able to compete successfully with
existing or new competitors.
Our
product development efforts are subject to the risks inherent in the development
of such products. These risks include the possibility that development costs
will be much greater than currently anticipated, that our products will be
found
to be ineffective or unsafe, or will otherwise fail to receive necessary
regulatory approvals; that the products will be difficult to manufacture on
a
large scale or be uneconomical to market; that the proprietary rights of third
parties will interfere with our product development; or that third parties
will
market superior or equivalent products which achieve greater market acceptance.
Furthermore, there can be no assurance that we will be able to conduct our
product development efforts within the time frames currently anticipated or
that
such efforts will be completed successfully.
There
are risks relating to our Development, Distribution and Manufacturing Agreement
with Rapiscan Systems, Inc.
In
March
of 2005, we entered into a Development, Distribution and Manufacturing Agreement
(the “Agreement”) with Rapiscan Systems, Inc. (“Rapiscan”). Under the
terms of this agreement, we gave Rapiscan the exclusive worldwide rights to
market our Quantum SnifferTM portable
and benchtop trace detection devices under their private label. We also
agreed to give Rapiscan the exclusive worldwide rights to distribute certain
other new security products which we may develop in the future with their
funding, as well as rights, in some circumstances, to manufacture certain
components of the Quantum SnifferTM portable
and benchtop trace detection devices.
In
March
2006, the Company brought suit against Rapiscan and its parent, OSI Systems,
Inc. The Company is requesting rescission of the Agreement, for lack of
performance and other grounds or in the alternative, termination of the
Agreement due to material breaches of contract and implied covenant of good
faith and fair dealing and for damages. Should the Company be unsuccessful
in
prosecuting its lawsuit, it could have a material adverse effect on our business
and results of operations.
In
March
2006, the Company received notice that Rapiscan filed a complaint against the
Company regarding the Agreement. Rapiscan’s complaint is based upon claims of
breach of contract, breach of warranty and tortuous interference with
contractual relations and is requesting a decree for specific performance,
declaratory relief and injunctive relief. Should the Company be unsuccessful
in
defending itself in the lawsuit, it could have a material adverse effect on
our
business and results of operations.
In
August
2006, as a result of motions made by both parties, the two lawsuits have been
consolidated in the United States District Court for the Central District of
California with the Company as plaintiff. Presently, discovery is in process.
Rapiscan and OSI have filed a motion to dismiss certain of the Company’s claims.
The Company has not yet responded to the motion. Presently, discovery is in
process. Rapiscan and OSI have filed a motion to dismiss certain of the
Company’s claims. As of October 30, 2006, the court has ruled that the Company’s
claim of breach of fiduciary duty was dismissed but OSI’s motion to dismiss all
other claims was denied. The litigants are presently in the discovery process
which should be completed by July 2007. Rapiscan has recently filed two motions
for partial summary judgment, one relating to the manufacturing provisions
of
the agreement and the other related to certain types of damages. We have
opposed the two motions, which are to be heard on August 6, 2007. Trial is
expected in early 2008.
Should
the Company be unsuccessful in prosecuting this matter, it may have a material
adverse effect on its business and results of operations.
We
own patents, trade secrets and other intellectual property and know-how that
we
believe allows us to compete effectively. Limitations on our ability to protect
our intellectual property or continue to use our intellectual property could
harm our financial performance.
Our
ability to compete effectively will depend, to a significant extent, on our
ability to operate without infringing the intellectual property rights of
others. Many participants in the medical device area aggressively seek patent
protection and have increasing numbers of patents, and have frequently
demonstrated a readiness to commence litigation based on patent infringement.
Third parties may assert exclusive patent rights to technologies that are
important to us.
Our
success will depend on our ability to obtain new patents and operate without
infringing on the proprietary rights of others.
Although
we have twenty (20) United States patents issued and ten (10) United States
patent applications pending for our technology and processes, our success will
depend, in part, on our ability to obtain the patents applied for and maintain
trade secret protection for our technology and operate without infringing on
the
proprietary rights of third parties. The validity and breadth of claims in
medical technology patents involve complex legal and factual questions and,
therefore, may be highly uncertain. No assurance can be given that any pending
patent applications or any future patent application will issue as patents,
that
the scope of any patent protection obtained will be sufficient to exclude
competitors or provide competitive advantages to us, that any of our patents
will be held valid if subsequently challenged or that others will not claim
rights in or ownership of the patents and other proprietary rights held by
us.
Furthermore,
there can be no assurance that others have not or will not develop similar
products, duplicate any of our products or design around any patents issued
or
that may be issued in the future to us. In addition, whether or not patents
are
issued to us, others may hold or receive patents which contain claims having
a
scope that covers products or processes developed by us.
Moreover,
there can be no assurances that patents issued to us will not be challenged,
invalidated or circumvented or that the rights thereunder will provide any
competitive advantage. We could incur substantial costs in defending any patent
infringement suits or in asserting any patent rights, including those granted
to
third parties. Patents and patent applications in the United States may be
subject to interference proceedings brought by the United States Patent &
Trademark Office, or to opposition proceedings initiated in a foreign patent
office by third parties. We may incur significant costs defending such
proceedings. In addition, we may be required to obtain licenses to patents
or
proprietary rights from third parties. There can be no assurance that such
licenses will be available on acceptable terms if at all. If we do not obtain
required licenses, we could encounter delays in product development or find
that
the development, manufacture or sale of products requiring such licenses could
be foreclosed.
We
also
rely on unpatented proprietary technology, trade secrets and know-how and no
assurance can be given that others will not independently develop substantially
equivalent proprietary information, techniques or processes, that such
technology or know-how will not be disclosed or that we can meaningfully protect
our rights to such unpatented proprietary technology, trade secrets, or
know-how. Although we have entered into non-disclosure agreements with our
employees and consultants, there can be no assurance that such non-disclosure
agreements will provide adequate protection for our trade secrets or other
proprietary know-how.
If
we are not successful in managing our future growth, our business will
suffer.
We
have
limited experience in the commercial production of explosives detection systems.
Our future success will depend upon, among other factors, our ability to
recruit, hire, train and retain highly educated, skilled and experienced
management and technical personnel, to generate capital from operations, to
scale-up our manufacturing process and expand our facilities and to manage
the
effects of growth on all aspects of our business, including research,
development, manufacturing, distribution, sales and marketing, administration
and finance. Our failure to identify and exploit new product and service
opportunities, attract or retain necessary personnel, generate adequate revenues
or conduct our expansion or manage growth effectively could have a material
adverse effect on our business and results of operations.
Our
research and manufacturing activities involve the use of hazardous materials.
Any liability resulting from the misuse of such hazardous materials could
adversely affect our business.
Our
research and manufacturing activities sometimes involve the use of various
hazardous materials. Although we believe that our safety procedures for
handling, manufacturing, distributing, transporting and disposing of such
materials comply with the standards for protection of human health, safety,
and
the environment, prescribed by local, state, federal and international
regulations, the risk of accidental contamination or injury from these materials
cannot be completely eliminated. Nor can we eliminate the risk that one or
more
of our hazardous material or hazardous waste handlers may cause contamination
for which, under laws imposing strict liability, we could be held liable. While
we currently maintain insurance in amounts which we believe are appropriate
in
light of the risk of accident, we could be held liable for any damages that
might result from any such event. Any such liability could exceed our insurance
and available resources and could have a material adverse effect on our business
and results of operations.
Product
liability claims could damage our reputation and hurt our financial
results.
To
date
no product liability claims have been asserted against us; however, the testing,
marketing and sale of implantable devices and materials entail an inherent
risk
that product liability claims will be asserted against us, if the use of our
devices is alleged to have adverse effects on a patient, including exacerbation
of a patient's condition, further injury, or death. A product liability claim
or
a product recall could have a material adverse effect on our business. Certain
of our devices are designed to be used in treatments of diseases where there
is
a high risk of serious medical complications or death.
If
our suppliers cannot provide the components or services we require, our ability
to manufacture our products could be harmed.
We
rely
on a limited number of suppliers to provide materials and services used to
manufacture our products. If we cannot obtain adequate quantities of necessary
materials and services from our suppliers, there can be no assurance that we
would be able to access alternative sources of supply within a reasonable period
of time or at commercially reasonable rates. Moreover, in order to maintain
our
relationship with major suppliers, we may be required to enter into preferred
supplier agreements that will increase the cost of materials obtained from
such
suppliers, thereby also increasing the prices of our products. The limited
sources, the unavailability of adequate quantities, the inability to develop
alternative sources, a reduction or interruption in supply or a significant
increase in the price of raw materials or services could have a material adverse
effect on our business and results of operations.
If
our contract manufacturer cannot provide the services we require, our ability
to
manufacture our products could be harmed.
We
rely
on a single contract manufacturer to provide manufacturing services for our
explosives detection products. If these services become unavailable, we would
be
required to identify and enter into an agreement with a new contract
manufacturer or take the manufacturing in house. The loss of our contract
manufacturer could significantly disrupt production as well as increase the
cost
of production, thereby also increasing the prices of our products. These changes
could have a material adverse effect on our business and results of operations.
If
we were to lose the services of either our president or our chief scientist,
our
business would be adversely affected.
We
are
substantially dependent, for the foreseeable future, upon our Chairman of the
Board, President and Chief Executive Officer, Dr. Anthony J. Armini and our
Vice
President and Chief Scientist, Dr. Stephen N. Bunker, both of whom currently
devote their full time and efforts to management. We have entered into an
employment agreement with each of these officers. If we were to lose the
services of Dr. Armini or Dr. Bunker for any significant period of time, our
business would be materially adversely affected.
If
we cannot attract and retain the management, sales and other personnel we need,
we will not be successful.
There
is
intense competition for qualified personnel in the high technology field, and
there can be no assurance that we will be able to continue to attract and retain
qualified personnel necessary for the development of our business. The loss
of
the services of existing personnel as well as the failure to recruit additional
qualified scientific, technical and managerial personnel in a timely manner
would be detrimental to our anticipated growth and expansion into areas and
activities requiring additional expertise such as marketing. The failure to
attract and retain such personnel could adversely affect our business and
results of operations.
If
we are unable to complete our assessments as to the adequacy of our internal
controls over financial reporting as required by Section 404 of the
Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, investors could lose confidence in the reliability
of our financial statements, which could result in a decrease in the value
of
our common stock.
As
directed by Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, the Securities
and Exchange Commission adopted rules requiring public companies to include
a
report of management on the company's internal control over financial reporting
in their annual reports on Form 10-K. This report is required to contain an
assessment by management of the effectiveness of such company's internal
controls over financial reporting. In addition, the independent registered
public accounting firm auditing a public company's financial statements must
attest to and report on management's assessment of the effectiveness of the
company's internal controls over financial reporting. While we will begin to
develop the necessary documentation and testing procedures required by
Section 404, there is a risk that we will not comply with all of the
requirements imposed by Section 404. If we fail to implement required new
or improved controls, we may be unable to comply with the requirements of
Section 404 in a timely manner. This could result in an adverse reaction in
the financial markets due to a loss of confidence in the reliability of our
financial statements, which could cause the market price of our common stock
to
decline and make it more difficult for us to finance our
operations.
In
our
report on Form 10-K for the year ended June 30, 2006, our
independent auditors have reported to our Audit Committee certain matters
involving internal controls that our independent auditors considered to be
a
significant deficiency. A significant deficiency is a control deficiency or
combination of control deficiencies, that adversely affects the company’s
ability to initiate, authorize, record, process, or report external financial
data reliably in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles such
that there is more than a remote likelihood that a misstatement of the company’s
annual or interim financial statements that is more than inconsequential will
not be prevented or detected.
The
reportable condition related primarily to the closing and financial reporting
process. Management is confident that our financial statements for
the year ended June 30, 2006 fairly present, in all material respects, our
financial condition and results of operations.
The
reportable condition has been discussed in detail among management, our Audit
Committee and our independent auditors, and we are committed to addressing
and
resolving these matters fully and promptly, by putting in place the personnel,
processes, technology and other resources appropriate to support our financial
close processes. As part of this commitment, we intend to use the services
of an outside consultant to evaluate our closing and financial reporting
process and make recommendations to management to improve
these processes.
We
cannot
assure you that we will successfully address the issues raised by our
independent auditors above. If we are unable to do so, and a misstatement,
error
or fraud is committed and remains undetected, we may suffer a material adverse
effect to our results of operations.
Our
quarterly results may fluctuate significantly, which could adversely affect
our
stock price.
We
believe that our operating results may be subject to substantial quarterly
fluctuations due to several factors, some of which are outside our control,
including fluctuating market demand for, and declines in the average selling
price of our products, the timing of significant orders from customers, delays
in the introduction of new or improved products, delays in obtaining customer
acceptance of new or changed products, the cost and availability of raw
materials, and general economic conditions. We plan to further increase our
expenditures to complete development and commercialization of our new products,
to increase our manufacturing capacity, to ensure compliance with the Food
and
Drug Administration's Quality Systems Regulations and to broaden our sales
and
marketing capabilities. A substantial portion of our revenue in any quarter
historically has been derived from orders booked in that quarter, and
historically, backlog has not been a meaningful indicator of revenues for a
particular period. Accordingly, our sales expectations currently are based
almost entirely on our internal estimates of future demand and not from firm
customer orders.
We
will be required to redeem the Series D Preferred for cash if the five day
average market price of our common stock, prior to a redemption date, is less
than 110% of the fixed conversion price.
We
will
be required to redeem the Series D Preferred for cash if the following
conditions are not met: (1) the shares must be issued pursuant to an effective
registration statement, (2) the average closing market price of the common
stock
for the five trading days immediately preceding a payment date must exceed
the
fixed conversion price of $4.15 by 110% and no one day’s closing price may be
less than the fixed conversion price, and (3) the conversion dollar value may
not exceed the aggregate of the prior 22 trading days’ dollar volume. We cannot
be certain that we will be able to redeem the monthly payment in shares of
common stock on a redemption date given the fixed conversion price of the
preferred stock and the associated market price of the common stock on a
redemption date. If we are required to redeem monthly payments in cash, this
will reduce our working capital necessary for our operations. Failure of
our ability to convert preferred shares into common shares will have a material
adverse affect on our cash resources. We may be required to reduce or
curtail certain operations and research and development projects to improve
our
cash resources. As of July 20, 2007, the closing price of our common stock
was
$1.80 per share. The outstanding balance is approximately
$3,939,000.
The
Company may have liability in connection with its recent securities
transactions.
We
amended the Series D financing terms with Laurus Master Fund in May 2006, while
the Registration Statement on Form S-3 was on file with the SEC but had not
yet
been declared effective. This may have been a violation of Section 5 of the
Securities Act and may provide Laurus with rescission rights. Although Laurus
has been offered rescission and has declined to rescind such transaction, there
is a possibility that such transaction could be reversed and the consideration
received by us may have to be repaid. Because we have made redemption payments
to Laurus in accordance with the terms of the Series D, if the transaction
was
rescinded, we would be required to pay Laurus the aggregate amount of
approximately $3,939,000, which would have a material adverse affect upon our
business.
If
third party credit is unavailable, our working capital could be restricted;
restrictions on our ability to raise additional capital under certain
circumstances.
Currently,
we rely on cash generated from our operations, private equity financing and
third party credit for working capital purposes. If such financing is no longer
available at acceptable rates, we would be required to reduce or curtail our
operations and research and development projects. This would have a material
adverse effect on our business and results of operations.
Shares
eligible for future sale may adversely affect the market.
From
time
to time, certain of our stockholders may be eligible to sell all or some of
their shares of common stock by means of ordinary brokerage transactions in
the
open market pursuant to Rule 144, promulgated under the Securities Act,
subject to certain limitations. In general, pursuant to Rule 144, a
stockholder (or stockholders whose shares are aggregated) who has satisfied
a
one year holding period may, under certain circumstances, sell within any three
month period a number of securities which does not exceed the greater of 1%
of
the then outstanding shares of common stock or the average weekly trading volume
of the class during the four calendar weeks prior to such sale. Rule 144
also permits, under certain circumstances, the sale of securities, without
any
limitation, by our stockholders that are non-affiliates that have satisfied
a
two year holding period. Any substantial sale of our common stock pursuant
to
Rule 144 or pursuant to any resale prospectus may have material adverse
effect on the market price of our securities.
Because
of certain limitation on director/officer liability, our stockholders may have
limited rights to recover for breach of fiduciary duty.
As
permitted
by Massachusetts law, our Restated Articles of Organization limit the liability
of our directors for monetary damages for breach of a director's fiduciary
duty
except for liability in certain instances. As a result of our charter provision
and Massachusetts law, stockholders may have limited rights to recover against
directors for breach of fiduciary duty. In addition, our bylaws provide that
we
shall indemnify our directors, officers, employees and agents if such persons
acted in good faith and reasoned that their conduct was in our best interest.
We
have no history of paying dividends on our common stock.
We
have never
paid any cash dividends on our common stock and do not anticipate paying any
cash dividends on our common stock in the foreseeable future. We plan to retain
any future earnings to finance growth. If we decide to pay dividends to the
holders of our common stock, such dividends may not be paid on a timely
basis.
The
anti-takeover provisions of our Restated Articles of Organization and of the
Massachusetts corporation law may delay, defer or prevent a change of control.
Our
board
of directors has the authority to issue up to 5,000,000 shares of preferred
stock and to determine the price, rights, preferences and privileges and
restrictions, including voting rights, of those shares without any further
vote
or action by our stockholders. The rights of the holders of common stock will
be
subject to, and may be harmed by, the rights of the holders of any shares of
preferred stock that may be issued in the future. The issuance of preferred
stock may delay, defer or prevent a change in control because the terms of
any
issued preferred stock could potentially prohibit our consummation of any
acquisition, reorganization, sale of substantially all of our assets,
liquidation or other extraordinary corporate transaction, without the approval
of the holders of the outstanding shares of preferred stock. In addition, the
issuance of preferred stock could have a dilutive effect on our stockholders.
Our
stockholders must give substantial advance notice prior to the relevant meeting
to nominate a candidate for director or present a proposal to our stockholders
at a meeting. These notice requirements could inhibit a takeover by delaying
stockholder action.
FORWARD-LOOKING
INFORMATION
Some
of
the information in this prospectus, or incorporated by reference into this
prospectus, contains forward-looking statements that involve substantial risks
and uncertainties. Any statement in this prospectus that is not a statement
of
an historical fact constitutes a "forward-looking statement". Further, when
we
use the words "may", "expect", "anticipate", "plan", "believe", "seek",
"estimate", "internal", and similar words, we intend to identify statements
and
expressions that may be forward-looking statements. We believe it is important
to communicate certain of our expectations to our investors. Forward-looking
statements are not guarantees of future performance. They involve risks,
uncertainties and assumptions that could cause our future results to differ
materially from those expressed in any forward-looking statements. Many factors
are beyond our ability to control or predict. You are accordingly cautioned
not
to place undue reliance on such forward-looking statements. We have no
obligation or intent to update publicly any forward-looking statements whether
in response to new information, future events or otherwise.

PLAN
OF DISTRIBUTION
In
this
section of the prospectus, the term “selling stockholder” means and includes:
(1) the persons identified in the tables above as the Selling Stockholders;
and
(2) any of their donees, pledgees, distributees, transferees or other successors
in interest who may (a) receive any of the shares of our common stock offered
hereby after the date of this prospectus and (b) offer or sell those shares
hereunder.
The
shares of our common stock offered by this prospectus may be sold from time
to
time directly by the selling stockholders. Alternatively, the selling
stockholders may from time to time offer such shares through underwriters,
brokers, dealers, agents or other intermediaries. The selling stockholders
as of
the date of this prospectus have advised us that there were no underwriting
or
distribution arrangements entered into with respect to the common stock offered
hereby. The distribution of the common stock by the selling stockholders may
be
effected: in one or more transactions that may take place on the AMEX (including
one or more block transaction) through customary brokerage channels, either
through brokers acting as agents for the selling stockholders, or through market
makers, dealers or underwriters acting as principals who may resell these shares
on the AMEX; in privately-negotiated sales; by a combination of such methods;
or
by other means. These transactions may be effected at market prices prevailing
at the time of sale, at prices related to such prevailing market prices or
at
other negotiated prices. Usual and customary or specifically negotiated
brokerage fees or commissions may be paid by the selling stockholders in
connection with sales of our common stock.
The
selling stockholders may enter into hedging transactions with broker-dealers
in
connection with distributions of the shares or otherwise. In such transactions,
broker-dealers may engage in short sales of the shares of our common stock
in
the course of hedging the positions they assume with the selling stockholders.
The selling stockholders also may sell shares short and redeliver the shares
to
close out such short positions. The selling stockholders may enter into option
or other transactions with broker-dealers which require the delivery to the
broker-dealer of shares of our common stock. The broker-dealer may then resell
or otherwise transfer such shares of common stock pursuant to this
prospectus.
The
selling stockholders also may lend or pledge shares of our common stock to
a
broker-dealer. The broker-dealer may sell the shares of common stock so lent,
or
upon a default the broker-dealer may sell the pledged shares of common stock
pursuant to this prospectus. Any securities covered by this prospectus which
qualify for sale pursuant to Rule 144 may be sold under Rule 144 rather than
pursuant to this prospectus. The selling stockholders have advised us that
they
have not entered into any agreements, understandings or arrangements with any
underwriters or broker-dealers regarding the sale of their securities. There
is
no underwriter or coordinating broker acting in connection with the proposed
sale of shares of common stock the selling stockholders.
Although
the shares of common stock covered by this prospectus are not currently being
underwritten, the selling stockholders or their underwriters, brokers, dealers
or other agents or other intermediaries, if any, that may participate with
the
selling security holders in any offering or distribution of common stock may
be
deemed “underwriters” within the meaning of the Act and any profits realized or
commissions received by them may be deemed underwriting compensation
thereunder.
Under
applicable rules and regulations under the Exchange Act, any person engaged
in a
distribution of shares of the common stock offered hereby may not simultaneously
engage in market making activities with respect to the common stock for a period
of up to five days preceding such distribution. The selling stockholders will
be
subject to the applicable provisions of the Exchange Act and the rules and
regulations promulgated thereunder, including without limitation Regulation
M,
which provisions may limit the timing of purchases and sales by the selling
stockholders.
In
order
to comply with certain state securities or blue sky laws and regulations, if
applicable, the common stock offered hereby will be sold in such jurisdictions
only through registered or licensed brokers or dealers. In certain states,
the
common stock may not be sold unless they are registered or qualified for sale
in
such state, or unless an exemption from registration or qualification is
available and is obtained.
We
will
bear all costs, expenses and fees in connection with the registration of the
common stock offered hereby. However, the selling stockholders will bear any
brokerage or underwriting commissions and similar selling expenses, if any,
attributable to the sale of the shares of common stock offered pursuant to
this
prospectus.
We
have
agreed to indemnify certain of the selling security holders against certain
liabilities, including liabilities under the Act, or to contribute to payments
to which any of those security holders may be required to make in respect
thereof.
There
can
be no assurance that the selling stockholders will sell any or all of the
securities offered by them hereby.

DISCLOSURE
OF SEC POSITION
ON
INDEMNIFICATION FOR SECURITIES ACT LIABILITIES
Our
amended and restated Articles of Organization and By-Laws provide that we may
indemnify our directors and officers, to the fullest extent permitted under
Massachusetts law, including in circumstances in which indemnification is
otherwise discretionary under Massachusetts law.
Insofar
as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933
may
be permitted to directors, officers or persons controlling us, pursuant to
the
foregoing provisions, or otherwise, we have been advised that, in the opinion
of
the Securities and Exchange Commission, such indemnification is against public
policy as expressed in the Securities Act of 1933, and is, therefore,
unenforceable.

6. INDEMNIFICATION OF DIRECTORS AND OFFICERS.
Our
articles provide that none of our directors shall be personally liable to us
or
to our stockholder for monetary damages for breach of fiduciary duty as a
director, except that the limitation shall not eliminate or limit liability
(i)
for any breach of the director's duty of loyalty to us or our stockholder,
(ii)
for acts or omissions not in good faith or which involve intentional misconduct
or a knowing violation of law, (iii) under Section 61 or 62 of Chapter 156B
of
the Massachusetts General Laws, dealing with liability for unauthorized
distributions and loans to insiders, respectively, or (iv) for any transaction
from which the director derived an improper personal benefit.
Our
articles and by-laws further provide for the indemnification of our directors
and officers to the fullest extent permitted by Section 67 of Chapter 156B
of
the Massachusetts General Laws, including circumstances in which indemnification
is otherwise discretionary.
A
principal effect of these provisions is to limit or eliminate the potential
liability of our directors for monetary damages arising from breaches of their
duty of care, unless the breach involves one of the four exceptions described
in
(i) through (iv) above. These provisions may also shield directors from
liability under federal and state securities laws.
The
directors and officers of Implant Sciences are insured under a policy of
directors' and officers' liability insurance.

To
include any prospectus required by Section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act of
1933;
(ii)
To
reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising after the effective date
of the Registration Statement (or the most recent post-effective amendment
thereof) which, individually or in the aggregate, represent a fundamental change
in the information set forth in the Registration Statement, Notwithstanding
the
foregoing, any increase or decrease in the volume of securities offered (if
the
total dollar value of securities offered would not exceed that which was
registered) and any deviation from the low or high end of the estimated maximum
offering range may be reflected in the form of prospectus filed with the
Commission pursuant to Rule 424 (b) if, in the aggregate, the changes in volume
and price represent no more than a twenty percent (20%) change in the maximum
aggregate offering price set forth in the “Calculation of Registration Fee”
table in the effective registration statement; and
(iii)
To
include any material information with respect to the plan of distribution not
previously disclosed in the Registration Statement or any material change to
such information in the Registration Statement.
Provided,
however, that paragraphs 1(a)(i) and 1(a)(ii) do not apply if the Registration
Statement is on Form S-3 or Form S-8 and the information required to be included
in a post-effective amendment by those paragraphs is contained in periodic
reports filed with or furnished to the Commission by the Registrant pursuant
to
Section 13 or Section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 that are
incorporated by reference herein.
(b)
That,
for the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933,
each such post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be a new registration
statement relating to the securities offered herein, and the offering of such
securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering
thereof.
(c)
To
remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment any of the
securities being registered which remain unsold at the termination of the
offering.
2.
The
undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes that, for purposes of determining
any
liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each filing of the Registrant's
annual report pursuant to Section 13(a) or Section 15(d) of the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934 (and, where applicable, each filing of an employee benefit
plan's annual report pursuant to Section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act
of
1934) that is incorporated by reference in the Registration Statement shall
be
deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered
herein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to
be
the initial bona fide offering thereof.
3.
Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act
of
1933 may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the
Registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the Registrant
has been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission
such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Act and is,
therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against
such liabilities (other than the payment by the Registrant of expenses incurred
or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the Registrant in the
successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such
director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being
registered, the Registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter
has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate
jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public
policy as expressed in the Act and will be governed by the final adjudication
of
such issue.
SIGNATURES
Pursuant
to the requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, the Registrant certifies
that
it has reasonable grounds to believe that it meets all of the requirements
for
filing on Form S-8 and has duly caused this Registration Statement to be signed
on its behalf by the undersigned, thereunto duly authorized, in the City of
Wakefield, Massachusetts, on this 26th day
of
July, 2007.
