The increase between years is the result of a new government reservation contract, which the Company began performing early in 2006. During the three- and nine-month periods, the Company's R&D costs were $441,000 and $723,000, respectively; an increase of $400,000 and $511,000, respectively, over the same periods of the prior year. The increased expenditures resulted from the escalation of activity relating to the Phase 3 clinical trial of Naturlose as a treatment for type 2 diabetes. A range-finding study was successfully completed, and provided encouraging early signs (see Spherix news release dated October 26, 2006). With the increase in R&D expenditures between years, Company's net income decreased by $295,000 for the quarter, but remained $256,000 above the prior year's net loss for the year to date.
