NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

December 31, 2007

1. ORGANIZATION

Visualant, Inc. was incorporated under the laws of the State of Nevada on October 8, 1998 under the name of “Cigar King Corporation” with authorized common stock of 200,000,000 shares at $0.001 par value. On September 13, 2002 the name was changed to “Starberrys Corporation” as part of a change in the authorized capital stock whereby 50,000,000 shares of preferred stock with a par value of $0.001 were authorized.  On August 18, 2004 the name of the Company was changed to “Visualant, Incorporated”. There are no preferred shares issued and the terms have not been determined.

The Company is in the development stage and has not commenced operations.

2. GOING CONCERN

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. We have incurred net losses of approximately $524,000 and $949,000 for the six months ended March 31, 2008 and 2007, respectively. Our current liabilities exceeded our current assets by approximately $1.4 million as of March 31, 2008.  Our net cash used in operating activities approximated $185 for the six months ended March 31, 2008.

As of March 31, 2008, the Company had minimal cash.  The Company is considered illiquid as this cash is not considered sufficient to fund the recurring operating and associated financing costs. The Company needs to raise additional funding to continue its operations.  However, there can be no assurance that financing or additional funding will be available to the Company on favorable terms or at all. If the Company raises additional capital through the sale of equity or convertible debt securities, the issuance of such securities may result in dilution to existing stockholders.

We anticipate that we will generate significant losses from operations for the foreseeable future. As of March 31, 2008, our accumulated deficit was $6.3 million.  We have limited capital resources, and operations to date have been funded with the proceeds from private equity and debt financings. These conditions raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. The audit report prepared by our independent registered public accounting firm relating to our consolidated financial statements for the year ended September 30, 2007 includes an explanatory paragraph expressing the substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.

Continuation of the company as a going concern is dependant upon obtaining additional working capital.  The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary if we are unable to continue as a going concern.

3. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In September 2006, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 157, Fair Value Measurements (“SFAS 157”). SFAS 157 defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value and expands disclosures about fair value measurements but does not require any new fair value measurements.

SFAS 157 is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007, and interim periods within those fiscal years. We are evaluating the possible impact of SFAS 157 on the financial statements.

In February 2007, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 159, The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities, (“SFAS 159”). SFAS 159 permits entities to choose to measure many financial instruments and certain other items at fair value. The objective is to improve financial reporting by providing entities with the opportunity to mitigate volatility in reported earnings caused by measuring related assets and liabilities differently without having to apply complex hedge accounting provisions. SFAS 159 is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007. We have not yet determined the impact of adopting SFAS 159 on our financial position.

4. DEVELOPMENT OF TECHNOLOGIES OWNED BY THE COMPANY

The Company is in the business of researching, developing, acquiring, and commercializing products and services related to illumination and detection of electromagnetic energy, typically in the visible and near-visible portions of the electromagnetic spectrum, using specialized illumination and sensing systems and spatial analysis software modeling which allow for pattern recognition.  This technology involves specialized and proprietary information and trade secrets, which the Company considers to be among its most sensitive, confidential, and proprietary information.

5. NOTES PAYABLE

During the year ended September 30, 2006, the Company entered into agreements with Coach Capital, LLC for three demand notes payable to Coach Capital, LLC totaling $165,705 including related loan fees for purposes of financing ongoing operations.

During the first quarter of 2007, the Company entered into an additional demand note with Coach Capital, LLC totaling $56,016 including loan fees.   In February 2007, the Company entered into a demand note with CEO and President, Bradley E. Sparks totaling $50,000 plus loan fees of $750. In addition, the Company entered into another demand note with Coach Capital, LLC during the quarter totaling $28,480 including loan fees.  During the third quarter, all of the notes and interest payable to Coach Capital, LLC were paid in full with funds borrowed under the Company’s new convertible line of credit (see Note 6).  As of March 31, 2008, the outstanding notes payable totaled $50,750 consisting of the note payable to Sparks.  Interest expense accrues on all of the notes at a rate of 18% per annum.  Accrued interest on the notes payable is recorded in the balance sheet in accrued expenses and other liabilities.

Any delays in repayment of the principal and accrued interest on the notes payable  will result in a penalty interest rate of 30% per annum.  The interest due to Sparks became in arrears on February 16, 2008 and has not been paid as of the date of this filing.

6. LINE OF CREDIT

On May 7, 2007, the Company entered into a Convertible Line of Credit Agreement with Coventry Capital LLC., a Delaware company, pursuant to which Coventry Capital will provide the Company with a convertible line of credit of up to $1 million.  The line of credit may be increased up to $3 million in the event the Company achieves certain performance criteria.  The borrowed funds will bear interest at the rate of 10% per annum, and are due in full on May 7, 2010.  Coventry Capital, however, has the right to convert all or part of the indebtedness into common stock of the Company at a fixed conversion rate of $0.50 per share.  As of March 31, 2008 the balance outstanding on this convertible line of credit was $425,340.  The Company currently is unable to borrow any additional funds under this line of credit due to its failure to meet certain financial covenants or conditions required by Coventry Capital.  The Company has attributed no value to the conversion rights. 

In connection with the Coventry Capital convertible line of credit, the Company issued 200,000 shares of common stock to the placement agent for arranging the new financing.  The $96,000 value of the common stock upon issuance was recorded as deferred financing costs and is being amortized over the three-year term of the convertible line of credit.

7. COMMON CAPITAL STOCK

During the six months ending March 31, 2008, the board of directors granted 1.5 million shares of common stock comprised of the following transactions:

In October, the board of directors granted and issued 100,000 shares of common stock to a consultant for the performance of services.  These shares were valued at $10,000 on the date of grant.

On December 14, 2007 the board of directors granted Ron Erickson 500,000 shares of common stock, Lynn Felsinger 300,000 shares of common stock, Dr. Masahiro Kawahata 200,000 shares of common stock, and Jon Pepper 200,000 shares of common stock.  The shares of common stock were issued for past services performed.  The shares were valued at $108,000 on the date of the grant and the shares were issued during the second quarter.

During the second quarter  ended March 31, 2008, the board of directors granted Marco Hegyi 200,000 shares of common stock to serve as a member of the board.  The shares were valued at $22,500 on the date of the grant.

8. STOCK OPTIONS

Description of Stock Option Plan

In 2005, our Board of Directors adopted a combined incentive and nonqualified stock option plan for our employees and consultants (“2005 Stock Option Plan”).   On October 9, 2006 the Board of Directors authorized an increase in shares available for grant from 2 million to 4 million, subject to stockholder approval.

Determining Fair Value Under SFAS No. 123R

Effective October 1, 2006, we began recording compensation expense associated with stock options and other equity-based compensation in accordance with SFAS No. 123 (revised 2004), “Share-Based Payment”. We adopted FAS 123(R) using the modified prospective method.  Share-based compensation recognized in fiscal 2007 as a result of the adoption of SFAS No. 123R use the Black-Scholes-Merton option valuation model for estimating fair value of stock options granted under our plan. We amortize the fair value of stock options on a ratable basis over the requisite service periods, which are generally the vesting periods. The expected life of awards granted represents the period of time that they are expected to be outstanding.  We estimate the volatility of our common stock based on the historical volatility of our own common stock over the most recent period corresponding with the estimated expected life of the award. We base the risk-free interest rate used in the Black-Scholes-Merton option valuation model on the implied yield currently available on U.S. Treasury zero-coupon issues with an equivalent remaining term equal to the expected life of the award. We have not paid any cash dividends on our common stock and do not anticipate paying any cash dividends in the foreseeable future. Consequently, we use an expected dividend yield of zero in the Black-Scholes-Merton option valuation model.  In accordance with SFAS No. 123R, we adjust share-based compensation for changes to the estimate of expected equity award forfeitures based on actual forfeiture experience. The effect of adjusting the forfeiture rate for all expense amortization after October 1, 2006 is recognized in the period the forfeiture estimate is changed.

Stock Option Activity

A summary of activity relating to our stock option plan is as follows:

	Options	Weighted- Average Exercise Price		Weighted- Average Remaining Contractual Term
Outstanding as of September 30, 2007	1,897,500

9. SIGNIFICANT TRANSACTIONS WITH RELATED PARTIES

See Note 5 for discussion of notes payable issued to the Company’s CEO and President during the quarter ended March 31, 2007.  During the fiscal year ended September 30, 2007, Mr. Erickson advanced $49,256 of cash and incurred $549 of expense in behalf of Visualant.  In addition to the note payable transaction, Mr. Sparks advanced $15,000 of cash and incurred $10,800 of expense in behalf of the Company.  During the first quarter ending December 31, 2007, Mr. Erickson advanced $18,500 to the Company.  Other than the note payable, all amounts are recorded in the accounts payable balance.   The directors and officers of the Company beneficially own an aggregate 2,227,875 shares of common stock or 12.1% of the Company.

10. CANCELLATION OF AGREEMENT TO PURCHASE SHARES OF SCI

On April 9, 2003 the Company signed a Purchase Agreement with Malaremastastarnas Riksforening, the owner of all the shares of Skandinaviska Farginstituter AB (the Scandinavian Colour Institute or "SCI") which owns the color notation system Natural Color Systems ("NCS"), containing the terms of an acquisition by the Company or its assigns for a price of SEK 35,000,000 of all shares of SCI.  Pursuant to the terms of the agreements the Company made payments of $1,154,327 into an escrow account as part payment toward the purchase price.  The Company subsequently failed to make further payments on the contracts and by mutual agreement the contracts were cancelled and the moneys paid were expensed.

11. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

On April 17, 2008 the Company announced the formation of a majority owned Japanese subsidiary, Visualant Kabushiki Kaisha (“KK”) headquartered in Tokyo, Japan.  The Chairman of Visualant KK is Dr. Masahiro Kawahata, who also serves as a member of the Board of Directors for Visualant, Inc.  For 100,000 shares of its common stock, Visualant, Inc. purchased 66% of an existing entity of which Dr. Kawahata and Ron Erickson previously owned, and continue to own 17% each.

Visualant KK was formed to facilitate the development of business relationships with Japanese license partners and to help build strong relationships between Visualant and the Japanese marketplace.  The Company sees the expansion of Visualant into the Japanese market place as a key strategic move which will allow it to closely align with manufacturers and systems suppliers who can integrate the Visualant technology into solutions for their global customer base.

10

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S PLAN OF OPERATIONS

The Company is a development stage company engaged in the business of commercializing products and services based upon our spectral signature technology as reflected in our recently filed patent applications.  These patent applications pertain to the use of controlled illumination with specific bands of electromagnetic radiation, detection of returned electromagnetic radiation and data management in an innovative manner enabling our devices to establish a unique spectral signature for both individual and classes of items.  The unique spectral signature data can potentially be used in a variety of applications in areas such as brand protection, forgery detection, homeland security, medical diagnostics, quality control, fluids monitoring, metal stress analysis, and many others.  As of March 31, 2008, the Company has six utility patent applications with the U.S. Patent Office.

The Company purchases its research and development services from outside third party sources.  On March 15, 2006, the Company entered into a research and development contract with RATLab LLC, a privately-owned research laboratory in Seattle, Washington.  Under the contract, RATLab performs research and development using the Company’s existing intellectual property, as well as newly developed research and technologies in order to assist the Company with the commercialization of its core spectral signature technologies.  During the twelve-month period ended September 30, 2007, the Company paid approximately $251,000 in research and development fees to RATLab LLC.  No fees were paid to the RATLab during the six month period ended March 31, 2008.  RATLab LLC is a research laboratory formed primarily by Dr. Thomas Furness, founder and former director of the Human Interface Technology Lab (HIT Lab) at the University of Washington, and one of the leading researchers in the world in the area of human interface technology.  RATLab LLC also employs other leading scientists and research associates in the areas of computer science, imaging technology, and light sensing technology, who are part of the team conducting research on behalf of the Company.

The Company’s research and development activities under its Research and Development Contract with RATLab LLC, however, were suspended on July 12, 2007 due to lack of funds.  Upon receiving additional funding, developmental activities will resume with the either the RATLab or with another outside third party.

The Company initially intends to position its technology as both a revolutionary as well as a practical solution for security and fraud prevention applications and markets.  The Company’s current focus is to secure customers for its spectral signature technology and to capitalize upon the potential business opportunities in the areas of national security, document forgery/fraud, brand protection, label fraud and product tampering.  However, the broad scope of the applications covered by the Company’s patent applications may result in new opportunities surfacing from customers desiring prototypes designed to satisfy their specific technology needs.  As of  March 31, 2008, the Company had no customers.

The Company has developed prototypes which capture the spectral signatures of items and manage the data gathered.  These prototypes are being shown to potential customers and funding sources to demonstrate the potential and capabilities of our devices.  It is envisioned that once the Company has secured a customer or customers, it will collaborate with the customer to develop devices and specific applications of the Company’s technology that are designed to address the customer’s unique concerns.  The Company will then hire new personnel sufficient to fulfill its development obligations under any contract entered into.  In lieu of such hiring, the Company may contract with certain research organizations to perform development activities on behalf of the Company.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S PLAN OF OPERATIONS - continued

This Report on Form 10-QSB contains certain forward-looking statements that are based on current expectations.  When used in this discussion, the words "believe", "anticipates", "expects" and similar expressions are intended to identify forward-looking statements.  Such statements are  subject  to  certain risks and uncertainties, which could cause actual results to differ materially from those projected, and should not be regarded as a representation by the Company or any other person that the objectives or plans of the Company will be achieved.  The Company may encounter competitive, technological, financial and business challenges making it more difficult than expected to continue to develop and market its products; the market may not accept the Company’s future products; the Company may not be able to retain existing key management personnel; and there may be other material adverse changes in the Company’s operations or business.  Assumptions relating to budgeting, marketing, and other management decisions are subjective in many respects and thus susceptible to interpretations and periodic revisions based on actual experience and business developments, the impact of which may cause the Company to alter its marketing or other budgets, which may in turn affect the Company’s financial position and results of operations.  Readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date hereof.  The Company undertakes no obligation to republish revised forward-looking statements to reflect events or circumstances after the date hereof or to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events.  Readers are also urged to carefully review and consider the other risk factors relating to the Company and the various disclosures made by the Company that attempt to advise interested parties of factors which affect the Company's business, in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-KSB for the year ended September 30, 2007 as well as in the Company's periodic reports on Forms 10-QSB and 8-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the  "SEC").  The Company's financial statements are stated in United States Dollars and are prepared in accordance with United States Generally Accepted Accounting Principles.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

The Company has no revenue to date from its operations, and its ability to implement its plans for the future will depend on the future availability of financing.  Such financing will be required to enable the Company to further develop its spectral signature technology and continue its operations.  The Company intends to raise further funds through private placements of the Company's common stock and through short term borrowing.  The financing activities of the Company are current and ongoing, and it will expand and accelerate its development program as the timing and amount of financing allow.  However, there can be no assurance that the Company will be successful in obtaining additional capital for such technology development from the sale of its capital stock, or in otherwise raising substantial capital.

The Company’s cost to continue operations as they are now conducted is approximately $35,000 per month, and the Company does not have sufficient funds to cover existing operations.   The Company needs to raise additional funds in order to continue its existing operations, to resume its research and development activities, and to finance its plans to expand its operations for the next year.  The Company intends to raise the required funds by obtaining share capital from outside sources.  During the twelve months ended September 30, 2007, the Company obtained funds in the aggregate amount of approximately $135,000 through loans from Coach Capital and Bradley E. Sparks, CEO and President.  The Company borrowed $425,000 from Coventry Capital during the year ended September 30, 2007 under the Convertible Line of Credit.  Approximately $250,000 of the proceeds from the Convertible Line of Credit were used to repay the principal due on the Coach Capital notes payable.  During the year, operating funds were also advanced to the Company by its Chairman, Ronald P. Erickson and salaries were deferred.  If the Company is successful in raising additional funds, the Company’s research and development efforts will continue and expand, and overdue accounts payable will be satisfied.

The Company currently has no off-balance sheet arrangements that have, or are reasonably likely to have, a current or future effect on the Company’s financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity or capital resources.
