OPERATING RESULTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED OCTOBER 31, 2008
Net earnings were $941,801 for the year ended October 31, 2008, compared to $884,785 for 2007. The
increase in net earnings of $57,016, is largely attributable to increase in network sales and sales to other
countries, offset by changes made in key job positions to support the strategic plan of the Company,
resulting in higher administrative and marketing remuneration expenses offset by income resulting from
foreign exchange gains from the strengthening of the U.S. dollar and additional interest revenue on our
increased cash and cash equivalents balances during the year.

The operating results of the Company are a direct result of certain key performance indicators. These
indicators not only affect current performance but are indicative of future performance. New distributors
are independent contractors that purchase a distributor kit and agree to market the products of the
Company to their circle of acquaintances. New customers are those who agree to purchase the products
of the Company on a regular basis through an auto ship program called ImmunoDirect. For the year, the
number of new distributors recruited into the business opportunity increased by 24% and in the fourth
quarter increased by 23%. The number of new customers increased by 16.5% for the year but decreased
by 4.1% in the fourth quarter. This decrease in customer acquisition is due to increased emphasis on
acquiring distributors versus customers as their average monthly purchase pattern is approximately 50%
greater than a customer.

FINANCIAL SITUATION AND LIQUIDITY

As at October 31, 2008, the Company had a cash position of $6,138,454 compared to $3,874,558 as at
October 31, 2007. The Company believes that cash requirements in the ordinary course of business for
next year can be met with its available cash, cash generated from its operating activities and the reduction
of income tax payments caused by the realization of prior years income tax losses. If required, the
Company has access to operating credit facilities of $2,000,000 at its bank’s prime rate plus 1/2 %. The
credit facilities were not drawn upon to date.


                                                   2
The Company shows a solid balance sheet with no long term debt as at October 31, 2008. As at October
31, 2008, the Company shows a working capital of $7,082,436 for a ratio of 2.56 compared to a working
capital of $4,632,233 with a ratio of 2.33 as at October 31, 2007. The increase in working capital of
$2,450,203 is mainly attributable to the investment of the majority of the funds generated from the
operations into short-term certificates of deposit and treasury bills with short term maturities.

RECENT DEVELOPMENTS

In September 2008, at the Company’s annual convention in New Jersey, a number of marketing and sales
tools designed to create a highly duplicatable system for acquiring new distributors into the business were
launched. These tools included an attractive new distributor kit inclusive of brochures, catalogs, a
DVD/CD as well as a redesigned web site which is the business center for the independent distributors.

These tools were augmented by a new product: FITT (Future in Thinning Technology) meal replacement
system as well as an aggressive monthly promotional offering.

OUTLOOK

The Company has for many years sold product internationally under exclusive distribution agreements
based on geographic territories. In fiscal 2008, distribution agreements were entered into with licensees
in Malaysia, Equador and Poland. Going forward, the Company has made a decision to expand
internationally using the same seamless network marketing model successfully employed in North
America. As a result of this decision it is the Company’s intent to open in the United Kingdom, Republic
of Ireland and South Korea through wholly owned subsidiaries in the coming year.

In support of this more rapid expansion plan, the Company will be expanding its manufacturing capability
at its production facility in Blainville, Quebec, adding packaging capability for its flagship Immunocal
product.

Immunotec benefits from a solid balance sheet, skilled and motivated employees, well established
suppliers, repeat customers and a dedicated network of distributors. Management believes that the new
measures and sales and marketing initiatives being implemented will help increase sales and profits in the
next year.

Moreover, management is of the opinion that its investment in current research in such areas as cancer
cachexia, aging and aging related conditions will enable Immunotec to produce and bring to market more
value added products which will continue to differentiate its products from competing products.
Immunotec, following recommendations from its Product Development Committee, is constantly
developing new products that are appropriate for its health and wellness markets.

The increase in net earnings of $57,016, is largely attributable to increase in network sales and sales to other countries, offset by changes made in key job positions to support the strategic plan of the Company, resulting in higher administrative and marketing remuneration expenses offset by income resulting from foreign exchange gains from the strengthening of the U.S. dollar and additional interest revenue on our increased cash and cash equivalents balances during the year. The operating results of the Company are a direct result of certain key performance indicators. These indicators not only affect current performance but are indicative of future performance. New distributors are independent contractors that purchase a distributor kit and agree to market the products of the Company to their circle of acquaintances. New customers are those who agree to purchase the products of the Company on a regular basis through an auto ship program called ImmunoDirect. For the year, the number of new distributors recruited into the business opportunity increased by 24% and in the fourth quarter increased by 23%. The number of new customers increased by 16.5% for the year but decreased by 4.1% in the fourth quarter. This decrease in customer acquisition is due to increased emphasis on acquiring distributors versus customers as their average monthly purchase pattern is approximately 50% greater than a customer. FINANCIAL SITUATION AND LIQUIDITY As at October 31, 2008, the Company had a cash position of $6,138,454 compared to $3,874,558 as at October 31, 2007. The Company believes that cash requirements in the ordinary course of business for next year can be met with its available cash, cash generated from its operating activities and the reduction of income tax payments caused by the realization of prior years income tax losses. If required, the Company has access to operating credit facilities of $2,000,000 at its bank’s prime rate plus 1/2 %. The credit facilities were not drawn upon to date. 2
  • 3. The Company shows a solid balance sheet with no long term debt as at October 31, 2008. As at October 31, 2008, the Company shows a working capital of $7,082,436 for a ratio of 2.56 compared to a working capital of $4,632,233 with a ratio of 2.33 as at October 31, 2007. The increase in working capital of $2,450,203 is mainly attributable to the investment of the majority of the funds generated from the operations into short-term certificates of deposit and treasury bills with short term maturities. RECENT DEVELOPMENTS In September 2008, at the Company’s annual convention in New Jersey, a number of marketing and sales tools designed to create a highly duplicatable system for acquiring new distributors into the business were launched. These tools included an attractive new distributor kit inclusive of brochures, catalogs, a DVD/CD as well as a redesigned web site which is the business center for the independent distributors. These tools were augmented by a new product: FITT (Future in Thinning Technology) meal replacement system as well as an aggressive monthly promotional offering. OUTLOOK The Company has for many years sold product internationally under exclusive distribution agreements based on geographic territories. In fiscal 2008, distribution agreements were entered into with licensees in Malaysia, Equador and Poland. Going forward, the Company has made a decision to expand internationally using the same seamless network marketing model successfully employed in North America. As a result of this decision it is the Company’s intent to open in the United Kingdom, Republic of Ireland and South Korea through wholly owned subsidiaries in the coming year. In support of this more rapid expansion plan, the Company will be expanding its manufacturing capability at its production facility in Blainville, Quebec, adding packaging capability for its flagship Immunocal product. Immunotec benefits from a solid balance sheet, skilled and motivated employees, well established suppliers, repeat customers and a dedicated network of distributors. Management believes that the new measures and sales and marketing initiatives being implemented will help increase sales and profits in the next year. Moreover, management is of the opinion that its investment in current research in such areas as cancer cachexia, aging and aging related conditions will enable Immunotec to produce and bring to market more value added products which will continue to differentiate its products from competing products. Immunotec, following recommendations from its Product Development Committee, is constantly developing new products that are appropriate for its health and wellness markets.
