NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
GENERAL
1. Basis of Presentation
The condensed unaudited interim consolidated financial statements included
herein have been prepared, without audit, pursuant to the rules and regulations
of the Securities and Exchange Commission. The condensed consolidated financial
statements and notes are presented as permitted on Form 10-Q and do not contain
information included in the Company's annual statements and notes. Certain
information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements
prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the
United States of America have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules
and regulations, although the Company believes that the disclosures are adequate
to make the information presented not misleading. It is suggested that these
condensed consolidated financial statements be read in conjunction with the
December 31, 2005 audited consolidated financial statements and the accompanying
notes thereto. While management believes the procedures followed in preparing
these condensed consolidated financial statements are reasonable, the accuracy
of the amounts are in some respects dependent upon the facts that will exist,
and procedures that will be accomplished by the Company later in the year.
These condensed unaudited consolidated financial statements reflect all
adjustments, including normal recurring adjustments, which, in the opinion of
management, are necessary to present fairly the operations and cash flows for
the period presented.
2. Presentation of Financial Statements
The Company's condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts
of Medifast, Inc. and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. All significant
intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated.
3. Inventories
Inventories consist principally of finished packaged foods, packaging and raw
materials held in either the Company's manufacturing facility and distribution
warehouse. Inventories are valued with cost determined using the first-in,
first-out (FIFO) method.
4. GOODWILL AND OTHER INTANGIBLE ASSETS
In June 2001, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Statement
No. 142 "Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets". This statement addresses
financial accounting and reporting for acquired goodwill and other intangible
assets and supersedes APB Opinion No. 17, "Intangible Assets". It addresses how
intangible assets that are acquired individually or with a group of other assets
(but not those acquired in a business combination) should be accounted for in
financial statements upon their acquisition. This Statement also addresses how
goodwill and other intangible assets should be accounted for after they have
been initially recognized in the financial statements. On January 17, 2006, the
Company sold its goodwill balance of $893,500 when the Consumer Choice Systems
division was sold.
The Company has intangible assets, which include: customer lists, non-compete
agreements, trademarks and patents. The non-compete agreements are being
amortized over the legal life of the agreements ranging between 3 to 7 years.
The customer lists are being amortized over a period ranging between 5 to 10
years based on management's best estimate of the expected benefits to be
consumed or otherwise used up. Trademarks and patents are regularly reviewed to
determine whether the facts and circumstances exist to indicate that the useful
life is shorter than originally estimated or the carrying amount of the assets
may not be recoverable. The Company assesses the recoverability of its
trademarks and patents by comparing the projected discounted net cash flows
associated with the related asset, over their remaining lives, in comparison to
their respective carrying amounts. Impairment, if any, is based on the excess of
the carrying amount over the fair value of those assets.

Total Trademarks and Intangibles $ 816,000 $ 456,000
====================== ===================
On January 17, 2006 the Consumers Choice Systems division of the Company was
sold which included the sale of $1,601,000 in gross intangible assets and
$265,000 in accumulated amortization.
Amortization expense is included in selling, general and administrative
expenses.
5. Fixed Assets
Fixed assets are stated at cost. Depreciation is provided using the
straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the related assets,
which are generally three to seven years. Leasehold improvements and equipment
under capital leases are amortized on a straight-line basis over the lesser of
the estimated useful life of the asset or the related lease terms. Expenditures
for repairs and maintenance are charged to expense as incurred, while major
renewals and improvements are capitalized.
8
6. Note Receivable
Medifast realized a $1,503,000 note receivable as a result of the sale of
Consumer Choice Systems on January 17, 2006 to a former board member. The note
has a 10-year term with imputted interest of 4% collateralized by 50,000 shares
of Medifast stock and all the assets of Consumer Choice Systems. The amount of
principal to be collected over each of the next 5 years is $183,000 per year
with the remaining amount collectible thereafter of $588,000.
7. Income Per Common Share
Basic income per share is calculated by dividing net income by the weighted
average number of outstanding common shares during the year. Basic income per
share excludes any dilutive effects of options, warrants and other stock-based
compensation.
8. Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles
generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make
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 periods. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
9. Share Based Payments
Stock-Based Compensation
Effective December 31, 2005, the Company adopted the provisions of Financial
Accounting Standards Board Statement of Financial Accounting Standard ("SFAS")
No. 123(R), "Share-Based Payments," which establishes the accounting for
employee stock-based awards. Under the provisions of SFAS No.123(R), stock-based
compensation is measured at the grant date, based on the calculated fair value
of the award, and is recognized as an expense over the requisite employee
service period (generally the vesting period of the grant). The Company adopted
SFAS No. 123(R) using the modified prospective method and, as a result, periods
prior to December 31, 2005 have not been restated. The Company recognized
stock-based compensation for awards issued under the Company's stock option
plans in other income/expenses included in the Condensed Consolidated Statement
of Operations. Additionally, no modifications were made to outstanding stock
options prior to the adoption of SFAS No. 123(R), and no cumulative adjustments
were recorded in the Company's financial statements.
Prior to December 31, 2005, the Company accounted for stock-based compensation
in accordance with provisions of Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25
("APB No. 25"), "Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees," and related
interpretations. Under APB No. 25, compensation cost was recognized based on the
difference, if any, on the date of grant between the fair value of the Company's
stock and the amount an employee must pay to acquire the stock. The Company
grants stock options at an exercise price equal to 100% of the market price on
the date of grant. Accordingly, no compensation expense was recognized for the
stock option grants in periods prior to the adoption of SFAS No. 123(R).
Unearned compensation represents shares issued to executives that will be vested
over a 5-6 year period. These shares will be amortized over the vesting period
in accordance with FASB 123(R). The expense related to the vesting of unearned
compensation was $181,000 and $0 at June 30, 2006 and June 30, 2005,
respectively.
9
SFAS No. 123(R) requires disclosure of pro-forma information for periods prior
to the adoption. The pro-forma disclosures are based on the fair value of awards
at the grant date, amortized to expense over the service period. The following
table illustrates the effect on net income and earnings per share as if the
Company had applied the fair value recognition provisions of SFAS No. 123,
"Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation", for the period prior to the adoption
of SFAS No. 123(R), and the actual effect on net income and earnings per share
for the period after the adoption of SFAS No. 123(R).

10. Recent Accounting Pronoumcements
In December 2004, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 151, "Inventory Costs."
SFAS No. 151 requires abnormal amounts of inventory costs related to idle
facility, freight handling and wasted material expenses to be recognized as
current period charges. Additionally, SFAS No. 151 requires that allocation of
fixed production overheads to the costs of conversion be based on the normal
capacity of the production facilities. The standard is effective for fiscal
years beginning after June 15, 2005. The adoption of SFAS No. 151 did not have a
material impact on the Company's financial position or results of operations.
In May 2005, the FASB issued SFAS No. 154, "Accounting Changes and Error
Corrections." SFAS No. 154 replaces Accounting Principles Board ("APB") Opinion
No. 20, "Accounting Changes" and SFAS No. 3, "Reporting Accounting Changes in
Interim Financial Statements." SFAS No. 154 requires retrospective application
to prior periods' financial statements of a voluntary change in accounting
principle unless it is impracticable. APB No. 20 previously required that most
voluntary changes in accounting principle be recognized by including the
cumulative effect of changing to the new accounting principle in net income in
the period of the change. SFAS No. 154 is effective for accounting changes and
corrections of errors made in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2005.
The adoption of SFAS No. 154 did not have a material impact on the Company's
financial position or results of operations.
In February 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 155, "Accounting for Certain Hybrid
Financial Instruments, an amendment of FASB Statements No. 133 and 140." SFAS
No. 155 resolves issues addressed in SFAS No. 133 Implementation Issue No. D1,
"Application of Statement 133 to Beneficial Interests in Securitized Financial
Assets," and permits fair value remeasurement for any hybrid financial
instrument that contains an embedded derivative that otherwise would require
bifurcation, clarifies which interest-only strips and principal-only strips are
not subject to the requirements of SFAS No. 133, establishes a requirement to
evaluate interests in securitized financial assets to identify interests that
are freestanding derivatives or that are hybrid financial instruments that
contain an embedded derivative requiring bifurcation, clarifies that
concentrations of credit risk in the form of subordination are not embedded
derivatives and amends SFAS No. 140 to eliminate the prohibition on a qualifying
special-purpose entity from holding a derivative financial instrument that
pertains to a beneficial interest other than another derivative financial
instrument. SFAS No. 155 is effective for all financial instruments acquired or
issued after the beginning of the first fiscal year that begins after September
15, 2006. The Company is currently evaluating the effect the adoption of SFAS
No. 155 will have on its financial position or results of operations.

In March 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 156, "Accounting for Servicing of
Financial Assets, an amendment of FASB Statement No. 140." SFAS No. 156 requires
an entity to recognize a servicing asset or liability each time it undertakes an
obligation to service a financial asset by entering into a servicing contract
under a transfer of the servicer's financial assets that meets the requirements
for sale accounting, a transfer of the servicer's financial assets to a
qualified special-purpose entity in a guaranteed mortgage securitization in
which the transferor retains all of the resulting securities and classifies them
as either available-for-sale or trading securities in accordance with SFAS No.
115, "Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt and Equity Securities" and an
acquisition or assumption of an obligation to service a financial asset that
does not relate to financial assets of the servicer or its consolidated
affiliates. Additionally, SFAS No. 156 requires all separately recognized
servicing assets and servicing liabilities to be initially measured at fair
value, permits an entity to choose either the use of an amortization or fair
value method for subsequent measurements, permits at initial adoption a one-time
reclassification of available-for-sale securities to trading securities by
entities with recognized servicing rights and requires separate presentation of
servicing assets and liabilities subsequently measured at fair value and
additional disclosures for all separately recognized servicing assets and
liabilities. SFAS No. 156 is effective for transactions entered into after the
beginning of the first fiscal year that begins after September 15, 2006. The
Company is currently evaluating the effect the adoption of SFAS No. 156 will
have on its financial position or results of operations.
11. Revenue Recognition
Revenue is recognized for product sales upon shipment and passing of risk to the
customer and when estimates of discounts, rebates, promotional adjustments,
price adjustments, returns, and other potential adjustments are reasonably
determinable, collection is reasonably assured and the Company has no further
performance obligations. These estimates are presented in the financial
statements as reductions to net revenues and accounts receivable. Estimated
sales returns, allowances and discounts are provided for.
Outbound shipping charges to customers and outbound shipping-related costs are
netted and included in "cost of sales."
Returns - Consistent with industry practice, the Company maintains a return
policy that allows its customers to return product within a specified period (30
days). Because the period of payment generally approximates the period revenue
was originally recognized, refunds are recorded as a reduction of revenue when
paid. The Company's estimate for returns is based upon its historical experience
with actual returns. While such experience has allowed for reasonable estimation
in the past, history may not always be an accurate indicator of future returns.
The Company continually monitors its estimates for returns and makes adjustments
when it believes that actual product returns may differ from the established
accruals.

GENERAL
SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2006 AND JUNE 30, 2005
Revenue: Revenue increased to $39.1 million for the first six months of 2006 as
compared to $18.9 million for the first six months of 2005, an increase of $20.2
million or 107%. The direct marketing sales channel accounted for 60% of total
revenue, Take Shape for Life 30%, doctors 5%, and clinics 5%. As compared to the
first 6 months of 2005, the direct marketing sales channel, which is fueled
primarily by consumer advertising, increased revenues by approximately 160%.
Take Shape for Life sales, which are fueled by person-to-person recruiting and
support increased by 70% year-over-year. In the first 6 months of 2006, the
doctor channel increased sales by 25% and the clinics increased sales by 90% as
compared to the six months ended June 30, 2005.
The growth in revenue is primarily the result of an increased advertising
campaign in 2006. The Company has expanded into additional print media and
national cable and network TV spots. The Company also continues to expand its
presence on the web through affiliate advertising and paid search on sites, such
as google and yahoo. Additionally, the Take Shape for Life network continues to
grow as the sales network expands. The Company continues to create new tools and
training materials for health advisors and is in the final stages of
implementing a new IT platform. The new software will empower the Take Shape for
Life direct selling model by implementing the infrastructure and tools that are
critical in supporting health advisors to grow their business.
Due to the significant growth in the first quarter of 2006, Medifast, Inc. began
exploring third party over-sourcing capabilities in both the call center and
product production. The Company began using an outsourced call center for
overflow call volume in late April. Also, an outsourced production facility was
employed in late April to produce certain high volume products in order to
increase our inventory levels for anticipated future growth. The Company
believes that these over-sourcing capabilities will provide the Company with the
scalability necessary to seamlessly handle increased demands as the business
continues to grow.
Costs and Expenses: Cost of revenue increased $4.9 million to $9.6 million in
the first six months of 2006 from $4.7 million in 2005. As a percentage of
sales, gross margin increased to 75.4% for the first six months of 2006 as
compared to 75.1% for the first six months of 2005. The slight increase in gross
margin is primarily due to decreased raw material costs as a result of increased
volume discounts.
Advertising expense for the first six months of 2006 was approximately $7
million as compared to approximately $2 million in the first six months of 2005,
an increase of $5 million. The increased marketing was spent primarily for TV
advertising and print media. The Company continues to test and analyze which TV
clusters and print media provide the lowest cost to acquire a customer. This
testing will allow us to spend our advertising dollars most effectively as we
plan on increasing our advertising budget in the first quarter of 2007.
13
Other Income/Expense: Stock compensation expense for the first six months of
2006 was $181,000 as compared to $0 in 2005. This expense represents the vesting
of share-based compensation to key executives over five and six year terms. The
Company has reviewed unvested options and concluded that the effects of FASB
123R are immaterial.
On January 17, 2006 the assets of Consumer Choice Systems, a division of
Medifast, Inc., were sold to a former Board member. The promissory note calls
for monthly principal only payments over a 10-year term. Therefore, when
imputing an interest rate on the loan, a $323,000 loss had to be realized due to
the difference in the present value of the note receivable compared to the
amount realizable over 10-years. This is a one-time loss that will not affect
any future periods.
Income taxes: For the first six months of 2006 we recorded $2 million in income
tax expense, which represents an annual effective rate of 39%. The estimated
annual effective tax rate differed from the U.S. federal statutory rate of 35%
due to state income taxes. For the first six months of 2005, we recorded income
tax expense of $758,000 which reflected an estimated annual effective tax rate
of 38%.
Net income: Net income increased to $3.2 million in the first six months of 2006
as compared to $1.3 million in the first six months of 2005, which reflected an
increase of $1.9 million or 146%. The increase in net income is due to an
increase in sales offset by increased selling, general, and administrative
expenses, that primarily consist of increased advertising and commissions paid
to Take Shape for Life health advisors.
THREE MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2006 AND JUNE 30, 2005
Revenue: Revenue increased to $20 million in the second quarter of 2006 as
compared to $10.6 million in the second quarter of 2005, an increase of $9.4
million or 89%. The direct marketing sales channel accounted for 60% of total
revenue, Take Shape for Life 30%, doctors 5%, and clinics 5%. In the comparable
period in 2005, the direct marketing sales channel, which is fueled primarily by
consumer advertising increased revenues by approximately 120%. Take Shape for
Life sales, which are fueled by person-to-person recruiting and support
increased by approximately 60% year-over-year. For the three-months ended June
30, 2006, the doctor channel increased sales by 25% and the clinics increased
sales by approximately 70% as compared to the second quarter of 2005.
The growth in revenue is primarily the result of an increased advertising
campaign in 2006. The Company has expanded into additional print media and
national cable and network TV spots. During the second quarter the Company did
extensive testing of TV and print media in preparation for an increased
advertising budget in 2007. The testing caused the cost to acquire a customer to
increase, however, the Company feels this testing is necessary in order to
effectively spend increased advertising dollars in the first quarter of 2007.
Costs and Expenses: Cost of revenue increased $2.3 million to $4.9 million in
the second quarter of 2006 from $2.6 million in the second quarter 2005. As a
percentage of sales, gross margin increased to 75.7% in the second quarter of
2006 as compared to 75.1% in the second quarter of 2005. The slight increase in
gross margin is primarily due to decreased raw material costs as a result of
increased volume discounts.
Advertising expense in the second quarter of 2006 was approximately $4.5 million
as compared to approximately $1.2 million in the second quarter of 2005. The
increased marketing was spent primarily for TV advertising and print. The
Company spent approximately $2 million in television and print media for testing
the acquisition of customers slightly outside of its' current core demographic.
The results of this testing, although increasing the overall cost to acquire,
were very informative in planning for increased future advertising spending. The
Company believes that the data received through the customer responses and
feedback, along with some minimal adjustments to advertisement placement and
design will allow the new ad venues to become viable customer acquisition tools
for the expected future advertising campaigns.
14
Other Income/Expense: Stock compensation expense for second quarter of 2006 was
$164,000 as compared to $0 in 2005. This amount will be consistent for the
remainder of 2006. This expense represents the vesting of share-based
compensation to key executives over five and six year terms. The Company has
reviewed unvested options and concluded that the effects of FASB 123R are
immaterial.
Income taxes: In the second quarter of 2006 we recorded $884,000 in income tax
expense, which represents an annual effective rate of 39%. The estimated annual
effective tax rate differed from the U.S. federal statutory rate of 35% due to
state income taxes. In the second quarter of 2005, we recorded income tax
expense of $411,000 which reflected an estimated annual effective tax rate of
35%.
Net income: Net income increased to $1.5 million in the second quarter of 2006
as compared to $753,000 in the second quarter of 2005, which reflected an
increase of $747,000 or 99%. The increase in net income is due to an increase in
sales offset by increased selling, general, and administrative expenses, that
primarily consist of increased advertising and commissions paid to Take Shape
for Life health advisors.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
The Company had stockholders' equity of $25,530,000 and working capital of
$12,025,000 on June 30, 2006 compared with $20,602,000 and $8,991,000 at June
30, 2005, respectively. The $4,928,000 net increase in stockholder's equity and
the $3,034,000 net increase in working capital reflects the increased
profitability of the Company. The Company's cash position increased from $1.5
million at December 31, 2005 to $2.5 million at June 30, 2006 which is
attributable to the increased sales and a decrease in expenses as compared to
total sales offset by additional cash outlays for infrastructure to handle
additional sales growth. On June 30, 2006 the Company's current ratio was 3.6 to
1.
SEASONALITY
The Company's weight management products and programs have historically been
subject to seasonality. Traditionally the holiday season in November/December of
each year is considered poor for diet control products and services. January and
February generally show increases in sales, as these months are considered the
commencement of the "diet season." In 2005 and into 2006 seasonality has not
been a signifant factor. This is largely due to the increase in the consumer's
awareness of the overall health and nutritional benefits accompanied with the
use of the Company's product line. As consumers continue to increase their
association of nutritional weight loss programs with overall health, seasonality
will continue to decrease.
INFLATION
To date, inflation has not had a material effect on the Company's business.
