1 – NATURE OF BUSINESS AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING
POLICIES
Nature
of Business
Z
Trim
Holdings, Inc. (the “Company”) manufactures a functional food ingredient, Z
Trim, and other Z Trim related products. The company will continue
exploring all available options for its other Z Trim technologies and related
assets.
The
Company has participated in several public and private offerings and has
expanded its business. In 2002, the Company acquired FiberGel
Technologies, Inc. (“FiberGel”), which owns an exclusive license to Z Trim, an
all-natural, agriculture-based fat replacement.
The
Company has three reportable business unit segments: food product development,
security product development and e-tailer. The Company operates
through its FiberGel, The Brave Way Training Systems, Inc.(“Braveway”), On-Line
Bedding Corp. (“On-Line”), and Z-Amaize Technologies, Inc.
divisions. On July 18, 2007 the Board of Directors resolved to
dissolve and liquidate On-Line, which is the E-tailer operating
segment. On September 17, 2007 the Board of Directors resolved to
dissolve all company subsidiaries, other than FiberGel, on or before December
31, 2007. The related assets over liabilities of the dissolved
segments have an approximate carrying deficit of $6,000, including intercompany
payables of $78,000.
A
summary
of significant accounting policies follows.
Presentation
of Interim Information
The
financial information at September 30, 2007 and for the three and nine months
ended September 30, 2007 and 2006 is unaudited, but includes all adjustments
(consisting only of normal recurring adjustments) that the Company considers
necessary for a fair presentation of the financial information set forth herein,
in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States
(“U.S. GAAP”) for interim financial information, and with the instructions to
Form 10-QSB and Item 310 (b) of Regulation S-B. Accordingly, such
information does not include all of the information and footnotes required
by
U.S. GAAP for annual financial statements. For further information, refer to
the
consolidated financial statements and footnotes thereto included in the
Company’s annual Report on Form 10-KSB for the year ended December 31,
2006.
The
results for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2007 may not be
indicative of results for the year ending December 31, 2007 or any future
periods.
Principle
of Consolidation and Presentation
The
accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Z Trim
Holdings Inc. and its subsidiaries after elimination of significantly all
intercompany accounts and transactions. Certain prior period items
have been reclassified from operating expenses to cost of goods sold for ease
of
comparison. This reclassification affects neither the net loss nor the
accumulated deficit of the Company.
On
September 17, 2007, the Company resolved to discontinue all subsidiaries, other
than FiberGel. Accordingly, the accompanying consolidated financial
statements for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2007 and 2006
have
been restated to present the results of the segments as discontinued
operations.
Use
of
estimates
The
preparation of the accompanying consolidated financial statements in conformity
with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (U.S. GAAP)
requires management to make certain estimates and assumptions that affect the
reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets
and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts
of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could
differ from those estimates.

Income
(Loss) Per Common Share
Basic
net
income (loss) per share includes no dilution and is computed by dividing net
income (loss) available to common stockholders by the weighted average number
of
common stock outstanding for the period. Diluted earnings per share is computed
by dividing net income by the weighted average number of shares outstanding
and,
when diluted, potential shares from options and warrants to purchase common
stock using the treasury stock method. Diluted net loss per common share does
not differ from basic net loss per common share since potential shares of common
stock are anti-dilutive for all periods presented.
Cashless
Exercise of Warrants
The
Company has issued warrants to purchase common stock where the holder is
entitled to exercise the warrant via a cashless exercise, when the exercise
price is less than the fair value of the common stock. The Company accounts
for
the issuance of common stock on the cashless exercise of warrants as a cost
of
capital.
Stock
Based Compensation
Effective
January 1, 2006, the Company adopted the fair value recognition provisions
of FASB Statement No. 123(R), “Share-Based Payment” (SFAS 123R), using the
modified-prospective-transition method. Under that transition method,
compensation cost recognized in 2006 includes: (a) compensation cost for
all share-based payments granted prior to, but not yet vested as of
January 1, 2006 based on the grant date fair value calculated in accordance
with the original provisions of SFAS 123, and (b) compensation cost for all
share-based payments granted subsequent to December 31, 2005, based on the
grant-date fair value estimated in accordance with the provisions of SFAS
123(R).
As
a
result of adopting SFAS 123(R) on January 1, 2006, the Company recognized
pre-tax compensation expense related to stock options of $1,881,481 and
$3,251,738 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2007, respectively
and $7,432,030 and $8,998,169 for the three and nine months ended September
30,
2006, respectively. The 2007 stock option expense includes an
additional charge of $1,642,465 from the modification of 12,996,773 out-of-money
options. Of these options, 345,000 were granted a two year extension,
45,000 were an increase of $2.70 to the exercise and 12,606,773 were granted
a
one year extension not to exceed an exercise date of August 20, 2010. The 2006
stock option expense includes an additional charge of $1,199,402 from the
modification of 1,620,000 out-of-money options. These options were granted
a
lower exercise price and at two year extension.
New
Accounting Pronouncements
In
May
2007, the FASB issued FASB Staff Position No. FIN 48-1 (“FSP 48-1”),
Definition of Settlement in FASB Interpretation No. 48
. FSP
48-1 amended FIN 48 to provide guidance on how an enterprise should determine
whether a tax position is effectively settled for the purpose of recognizing
previously unrecognized tax benefits. FSP 48-1 required application
upon the initial adoption of FIN 48. The adoption of FSP 48-1 did not
affect the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements.
In
February 2007, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued
Financial Accounting Standards (“FAS”) No. 159,
The Fair Value Option for
Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities - Including an amendment of FASB
Statement No. 115
, which permits entities to choose to measure many
financial instruments and certain other items at fair value at specified
election dates. A business entity is required to report unrealized gains and
losses on items for which the fair value option has been elected in earnings
at
each subsequent reporting date. This statement is expected to expand the use
of
fair value measurement. FAS No.159 is effective for financial statements issued
for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007, and interim periods within
those fiscal years.
In
September 2006, the FASB issued FAS No. 157,
Fair Value Measurements
.
FAS No. 157 defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair
value
in generally accepted accounting principles, and expands disclosures about
fair
value measurements. This statement addresses how to calculate fair value
measurements required or permitted under other accounting pronouncements.
Accordingly, this statement does not require any new fair value measurements.
However, for some entities, the application of the statement will change current
practice. FAS No. 157 is effective for the Company beginning January 1, 2008.
The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this standard.

NOTE
1 – NATURE OF BUSINESS AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
(CONTINUED)
In
September 2006, the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") staff issued
Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 108 ("SAB 108"), Considering the Effects of Prior
Year Misstatements when Quantifying Misstatements in Current Year Financial
Statements. The stated purpose of SAB 108 is to provide consistency between
how
registrants quantify financial statement misstatements.
Prior
to
the issuance of SAB 108, there have been two widely-used methods, known as
the
"roll-over" and "iron curtain" methods, of quantifying the effects of financial
statement misstatements. The roll-over method quantifies the amount by which
the
current year income statement is misstated while the iron curtain method
quantifies the error as the cumulative amount by which the current year balance
sheet is misstated. Neither of these methods considers the impact of
misstatements on the financial statements as a whole.
SAB
108
established an approach that requires quantification of financial statement
misstatements based on the effects of the misstatement on each of the Company's
financial statements and the related financial statement disclosures. This
approach is referred to as the "dual approach" as it requires quantification
of
errors under both the roll-over and iron curtain methods.
SAB
108
allows registrants to initially apply the dual approach by either retroactively
adjusting prior financial statements as if the dual approach had always been
used, or by recording the cumulative effect of initially applying the dual
approach as adjustments to the carrying values of assets and liabilities as
of
January 1, 2006 with an offsetting adjustment recorded to the opening balance
of
retained earnings.
The
Company will initially apply SAB 108 using the cumulative effect transition
method in connection with the preparation of the annual financial statements
for
the year ending December 31, 2006. The Company does not believe the adoption
of
SAB 108 will have a significant effect on its consolidated financial
statements.

5 – STOCKHOLDERS' EQUITY
Private
Placement Offerings
On
February 2, 2007, the Company entered into an agreement with J.P. Turner &
Company, L.L.C. to sell shares of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.00005
per share (“Common Stock”), and warrants exercisable for Common Stock (the
“Warrants”). The purchase price was $1.00 per share, which was
greater than 70% of the volume weighted average price of the Company’s common
stock for the 90 days from the day prior to the closing date, which was March
29, 2007. The investors also received a 25% stock warrant at an
exercise price equal to 120% of the purchase price. The Warrants have
a term of 5 years.
The
offering closed on March 29, 2007. In the aggregate the Company sold
8,000,000 shares of its common stock and 2,000,000 warrants. J.P.
Turner & Company, L.L.C received a placement fee of 10% of the gross
proceeds and 15% warrant coverage with an exercise price equal to the purchase
price. The Company received $6,958,000 in proceeds, which is net of
offering costs and commissions of $1,042,000.
The
Company filed a Registration Statement covering the resale of the Common Stock
underlying the units and Warrants with the SEC. The Company has
responded to all SEC comments and is waiting for the registration approval
from
the SEC.
In
May
2007, the Company conducted a self-underwritten offering of the Company’s common
stock. The stock was sold for $100,000 per unit. Each unit
consisted of 100,000 shares of common stock and 25,000 warrants. The
warrants are exercisable at $1.20 per share and expire in five (5) years after
purchase of the above-described unit. The Company sold and issued
880,000 shares and received proceeds of $880,000 under the
offering. The Company has received a stock subscription for 150,000
shares of its common stock and 37,500 warrants under the
offering. The Company is waiting approval from the American Stock
Exchange for issuance of the shares.
On
March
24 through 30, 2006, the Company entered into private placement subscription
agreements pursuant to which it sold unregistered shares of our common stock,
par value $0.00005 per share (“Common Stock”), and warrants exercisable for
Common Stock. The Company sold approximately 205 units in the private
placement, with each unit consisting of 40,323 shares of Common
Stock. In addition, investors who invested at least $500,000 in the
private placement received a five-year warrant with an exercise price of $1.00
per share to purchase a number of shares of Common Stock equal to 10% of the
number of shares of Common Stock purchased (the “Warrants”). In the
aggregate the Company sold 8,245,368 shares of Common Stock, and Warrants to
purchase an additional 161,292 shares of Common Stock. Proceeds from the
sale, net of commissions and fees of $521,865, totaled
$4,536,433. The Company has registered the Common Stock and
underlying Warrants with the SEC as free trading shares.
National
Securities Corporation (“National Securities”) served as the lead placement
agent in connection with the private placement. National Securities received
cash fees in the aggregate of $521,865 and warrants to purchase 824,537 shares
of Common Stock on terms which are identical to the Warrants included in the
units except that the exercise price is $0.68 per share and they contain an
assignment provision. In addition, the placement agent’s warrant has
registration rights that are the same as those afforded to investors in the
private placement.
The
Company determined that all of the securities sold and issued in the private
placement were exempt from registration under the Securities Act of 1933, as
amended (the “Act”) pursuant Section 4(2) of the Act and Rule 506 of Regulation
D Promulgated under the Act. The Company based this determination on
the non-public manner in which it offered the securities and on the
representations of the persons purchasing such securities, which included,
in
pertinent part, that such persons were “accredited investors” within the meaning
of Rule 501 of Regulation D promulgated under the Act, and that such persons
were acquiring such securities for investment purposes for their own respective
accounts and not as nominees or agents, and not with a view to resale or
distribution, and that each such persons understood such securities may not
be
sold to or otherwise disposed of without registration under the Act or an
applicable exemption there from.
In
January 2006, the Company conducted a self-underwritten offering of the
Company’s common stock up to $1.24 million. The stock was sold for
$31,000 per unit. Each unit consisted of 50,000 shares of common
stock and 50,000 warrants. The warrants are exercisable at $1.00 per
share and expire in three (3) years after purchase of the above-described
unit. The Company sold and issued 1,000,000 shares and received
proceeds of $620,000 under the offering.

Exercising
of Stock Warrants and Options
During
the first nine months of 2007 and 2006, respectively, 1,014,163 and 1,061,400
stock warrants and options were exercised. The Company received total
proceeds of $872.289 and $485,150, respectively. The 2007 warrants
exercised are net of 879,996 shares rescinded by the Board of Directors on
April
30, 2007.
Common
Stock Issued on the Cashless Exercise of Warrants
During
February 2007 the Company issued 11,578 shares of common stock on the cashless
exercise of warrants.
Release
of common stock stop order
On
November 22, 2004, the Company entered into a two-year engagement with David
Shemesh and Mordechai Tobian for investor relations services in consideration
of
2,250,000 shares of restricted common stock of the Company (the "Shemesh/Tobian
Shares") and a warrant to purchase 275,000 shares of restricted common stock
at
$.80 per share through November 21, 2007.
Based
on
a closing price of the Company's common stock of $.79 on November 22, 2004,
the
Company recorded paid-in-capital of $1,777,500 as of that date and began to
recognize investor relation expenses on a quarterly basis over the life of
the
two-year contract.
On
August
24, 2005, the Company took the position that Shemesh and Tobian had failed
to
perform as agreed and the Company purported to rescind the contract.
Simultaneously, the Company placed a stop order on the Shemesh/Tobian Shares.
Through that date, the Company had recognized $765,325 of expense relating
to
the contract. Accordingly, at September 30, 2005 the Company wrote off the
remaining $1,012,175 against paid-in-capital.
Shemesh
and Tobian disputed the Company's basis for rescinding the contract and because
they were referred to the Company by Farhad Zaghi, the Company's purported
rescission became an issue in the Company's ongoing litigation with Zaghi and
his affiliates. In order to eliminate one of the issues of contention between
the parties and facilitate further settlement negotiations, on March 9, 2007,
the Company released the stop order on the Shemesh/Tobian Shares and allowed
the
shares to be traded. The Company recognized an expense to investor
relations of $2,182,175, based on the closing price on March 9,
2007.

NOTE
8 – SETTLEMENT LOSS
In
April
2007, the Company and two former investor relation consultants entered into
revised settlement agreements to replace and rescind the original settlement
agreements signed in October 2006. As a result, an additional 10,000
shares of the Company’s common stock at a fair value of $29,500 was issued and
recorded. On April 1, 2007, 275,000 shares were issued in excess of
the revised agreement and will be cancelled pending regulatory approval from
the
American Stock Exchange.

NOTE
9 – MAJOR CUSTOMERS AND CREDIT CONCENTRATION
The
Company’s principal customers are wholesale companies. There were no
significant customers for the nine months ended September 30, 2007 and two
customers accounted for approximately 45% for the nine months ended September
30, 2006.
The
Company maintains cash deposits with major banks, which from time to time may
exceed federally insured limits. The Company periodically assesses
the financial condition of the institutions and believes that the risk of any
loss is minimal.
NOTE
10 – PENDING LITIGATION
As
the
Company previously reported, on August 8, 2007, the Company settled its
litigation with Farhad Zaghi and related parties (collectively, “Zaghi”) in
which the Company had sued Zaghi for collection of amounts owing on a promissory
note and Zaghi had counterclaimed for fraud and other causes of
action. On October 16, 2007, the Company and Zaghi amended their
settlement agreement.
Under
the
original settlement agreement, the Company was to issue to a Zaghi affiliate
and
register for sale 1,950,000 shares of the Company’s common stock; Zaghi was to
liquidate those shares in an orderly fashion, on the market, via a
mutually-acceptable broker; and the proceeds from the sales were to be divided
between the Company and Zaghi pursuant to an established formula. The
original settlement agreement was designed to compensate the Zaghi parties
for a
portion of their alleged damages as well as to make the Company whole on the
amounts owning under the promissory note. Once the proceeds payable
to the Company and Zaghi reached $800,000 and $2,591,000, respectively, then
each party was to dismiss with prejudice its claims against the
other.
Under
the
revised settlement agreement, the Company continues to be obligated to issue
to
a Zaghi affiliate and register for sale 1,950,000 shares of the Company’s common
stock. However, all proceeds of sale will inure to Zaghi’s
benefit. Once the total proceeds reach $1,791,000, Zaghi will dismiss
its claims against the Company and return to the Company any remaining
shares. In the event the proceeds of the sales made by Zaghi do not
total $1,791,000, the Company will be required to issue and register additional
shares of common stock to the Zaghi affiliate, which will be similarly
liquidated until the shortfall is satisfied. The registration of the
original 1,950,000 shares is on a best-efforts basis. If the Company
is unable to register the original shares, Zaghi will have the right to rescind
the settlement agreement and resume litigating. With respect to the
registration of any additional required shares, the Company may be held in
breach of the settlement agreement, resulting in confession of judgment, if
such
shares are not registered within 45 days of the final sale of the original
shares.
In
connection with the amendment to the settlement agreement, the Company released
its claims against Zaghi. Neither party admitted any wrongdoing in
connection with the original or amended settlement agreements. To
date, no shares have been registered or sold pursuant to the original or amended
settlement agreement. Prior to the revised settlement, as of
September 30, 2007, the Company received loan recovery of $300,000.
On
August
8, 2007, the Company entered into a revised agreement to issue warrants to
purchase 1,604,166 shares to the Zaghi parties no sooner than December 1, 2007
and no later than 18 months subsequent to the date in which the Zaghi parties
are paid in full. The exercise price will be calculated as the 45
trading day trailing average of the closing price of Z Trim stock immediately
preceding the chosen date of the Zaghi parties, but not to exceed $1.25 per
share. The warrants will be exercisable for two years from issue
date. The Company also agreed to issue additional warrant or warrants to
purchase 662,500 shares of Z Trim stock under the above said term except that
the exercise price will be at five percent (5%) discount.
On
November 23, 2005, the Company entered into a Letter of Agreement ("LOA") with
George Foreman Enterprises, Inc. ("GFME") pursuant to which both parties would
form a new limited liability company for the purpose of promoting the Company's
zero calorie fat replacement food ingredient, Z Trim®. The parties
did not reach any definitive Agreement as is required by the LOA. On
May 9, 2006, the Company filed a lawsuit alleging breach of the Parties'
nondisclosure agreement and trade secret misappropriation in the Circuit Court
of the 19th Judicial District, Lake County, Illinois seeking damages and
injunctive relief against GFME. On August 3, 2006 the court, based
upon a finding that the Company has demonstrated a likelihood of success on
the
merits of the case, issued an order granting the Company a preliminary
injunction enforcing the non-disclosure agreement between the
parties. GFME subsequently appealed the preliminary
injunction. The Appellate Court denied GFME’s appeal, and the
injunctive order remains in place.

On
July
17, 2006, George Forman Enterprises, Inc. filed a complaint against Z Trim
Holdings, Inc. in the U.S. District Court seeking damages in excess of
$70,000,000 for specific performance, breach of contract, promissory estoppel
and unjust enrichment. The basis for all such claims is the
underlying LOA, set forth above. The Company received summary
judgment in its favor as to the count seeking promissory
estoppel. Further, on September 18, 2007, the Court issued a number
of orders limiting the evidence that GFME may bring in support of its claims.
Management believes that GFME’s allegations are frivolous and wholly without
merit and will vigorously defend the claim. Trial is scheduled for
February, 2008.
On
March
20, 2007, the Company filed a patent infringement suit in the United States
District Court for the Western District of Wisconsin seeking unspecified damages
and equitable relief against a manufacturer of a competing
product. Trial is scheduled for February, 2008.
On
January 18, 2007, the Company was served with a complaint by Daniel Caravette
for breach of contract and violation of the Illinois Wage Payment and Collection
Act, seeking damages in excess of $1,000,000. Management believes
that the allegations are frivolous and wholly without merit and will vigorously
defend the claim.
On
July
7, 2007, the Company was served with a complaint by Joseph Sanfilippo and James
Cluck for violation of the Consumer Fraud Act. Management believes
that the allegations are frivolous and wholly without merit and will vigorously
defend the claim.
On
or
about August 18, 2007, the Company was served with a Statement of Claim by
Basic
Investors, Inc. before the FINRA Dispute Resolution organization for damages
resulting from a claim for breach of contract. The Company is seeking
to settle the matter, and believes it has reached a tentative
agreement. The Company has accrued $69,000 as of September 30, 2007
for potential liability on the settlement.
NOTE
11 – RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
In
May
2007, the Board of Directors resolved to rescind a consulting agreement issued
for options on October 5, 2006. The agreement was with the brother of
the Vice President. The related options were exercised for 200,000
shares at $0.75 per share or $150,000 in October 2006. The Board
further resolved to approve the related party to use the proceeds to subscribe
the shares pursuant to the Company’s May 2007 self-underwritten offering (see
Note 5). The subscription is pending regulatory approval from the
American Stock Exchange. Common stock and paid in capital were
decreased and stock subscription payable was recorded for $150,000.
The
Company had a stock subscription receivable of $20,000 from the President
related to exercising his stock options in 2005. The stock
subscription receivable was paid in full on September 30, 2006 including $675
of
interest.
NOTE
12 – GUARANTEES
The
Company from time to time enters into certain types of contracts that
contingently require the Company to indemnify parties against third party
claims. These contracts primarily relate to: (i) divestiture agreements, under
which the Company may provide customary indemnifications to purchasers of the
Company’s businesses or assets; (ii) certain real estate leases, under which the
Company may be required to indemnify property owners for environmental and
other
liabilities, and other claims arising from the Company’s use of the applicable
premises; and (iii) certain agreements with the Company's officers, directors
and employees, under which the Company may be required to indemnify such persons
for liabilities arising out of their employment relationship. The
terms of such obligations vary. Generally, a maximum obligation is not
explicitly stated. Because the obligated amounts of these types of agreements
often are not explicitly stated, the overall maximum amount of the obligations
cannot be reasonably estimated. Historically, the Company has not been obligated
to make significant payments for these obligations, and no liabilities have
been
recorded for these obligations on its consolidated balance sheet as of September
30, 2007.
In
general, the Company offers a one-year warranty for most of the products it
sold. To date, the Company has not incurred any material costs
associated with these warranties.

19 – SEGMENT INFORMATION
The
Company evaluates its reporting segments in accordance with SFAS No. 131,
Disclosures about Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information. The Chief
Executive Officer has been identified as the Chief Operating Decision Maker
as
defined by SFAS No. 131. The Chief Executive Officer allocates resources to
each
segment based on their business prospects, competitive factors, net sales and
operating results.
The
Company’s structure includes three principal operating segments: (i) Food
Product Development, (ii) Security Training and Products and (iii)
E-tailer. The food product development segment owns the exclusive,
worldwide license to Z Trim(TM). The Security training offers cost
effective self-defense training courses and products with a uniquely targeted
curriculum. The e-tailer segment is a distributor of pillows,
blankets, and other bedding products. In third quarter of 2007, the
Company resolved to discontinue all subsidiaries, other than Fiber-Gel. As
a
result, the security training and products segment and e-tailer segment are
reclassified to discontinued operations and the food product development segment
remains as the Company’s reportable segment The Company also has other
subsidiaries that do not meet the quantitative thresholds of a reportable
segment.
The
Company reviews the operating segments’ income to evaluate performance and to
allocate resources. Operating companies' income for the reportable segments
excludes income taxes, minority interest and amortization of goodwill. Provision
for income taxes is centrally managed at the corporate level and, accordingly,
such items are not presented by segment. The segments' accounting policies
are
the same as those described in the summary of significant accounting
policies.
Intersegment
transactions are recorded at cost.
