For the Three and Six Months Ended June 30, 2014 and 2013

1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Company Overview

Boston Therapeutics, Inc., headquartered in Manchester, NH, (OTC: BTHE) is a leader in the field of complex carbohydrate chemistry. The Company's initial product pipeline is focused on developing and commercializing therapeutic molecules for diabetes: BTI-320 (formerly PAZ320), a non-systemic, non-toxic, therapeutic compound designed to reduce post-meal glucose elevation; IPOXYN, a continuous intravenous drug for the prevention of necrosis and treatment of ischemia with an initial target indication of lower limb ischemia often associated with diabetes; and SUGARDOWN®, a non-systemic complex carbohydrate designed to moderate post-meal blood glucose.

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming the Company will continue as a going concern. The Company has limited resources and operating history. As shown in the accompanying financial statements, the Company has an accumulated deficit of approximately $10.1 million and $1.5 million cash on hand as of June 30, 2014. The Company raised $250,000 in gross proceeds in private placements during the six months ended June 30, 2014. The future of the Company is dependent upon its ability to obtain financing and upon future profitable operations from the development of its new business opportunities. Management plans to seek additional capital through private placements and public offerings of its common stock. There can be no assurance that the Company will be successful in accomplishing its objectives. Without such additional capital, the Company may be required to cease operations.

These conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. The financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded assets, or the amounts of and classification of liabilities that might be necessary in the event the Company cannot continue in existence.

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited condensed financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("US GAAP") for interim financial information and the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) for quarterly reports on Form 10-Q. These condensed financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company's financial statements for its year ended December 31, 2013 included in its Form 10-K filed with the SEC on March 14, 2014. In the opinion of management, the statements contain all adjustments, including normal recurring adjustments necessary in order to present fairly the financial position as of June 30, 2014 and the results of operations for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2014 and 2013.

The year-end balance sheet data was derived from the audited financial statements but does not include all disclosures required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The results disclosed in the statements of operations for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2014 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full fiscal year.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with US GAAP 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 revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Accounts Receivable

Accounts receivable is stated at the amount management expects to collect from outstanding balances. Management establishes a reserve for doubtful accounts based on its assessment of the current status of individual accounts. Balances that remain outstanding after management has used reasonable collection efforts are written off against the allowance. There were no allowances for doubtful accounts as of June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013. At December 31, 2013, the Company had one customer that accounted for 100% of its accounts receivable. The Company believes there is minimal risk associated with this receivable. As of June 30, 2014, there was no outstanding accounts receivable.

Inventory

Inventory consists of raw materials, work-in-process and finished goods of SUGARDOWN®. Inventories are stated at the lower of cost (first-in, first-out) or market, not in excess of net realizable value. The Company adjusts the carrying value of its inventory for excess and obsolete inventory. The Company continues to monitor the valuation of its inventory.

Revenue Recognition

The Company generates revenues from sales of SUGARDOWN®. Revenue is recognized when there is persuasive evidence that an arrangement exists, the price is fixed and determinable, the product is shipped in accordance with the customers’ FOB shipping point terms and collectability is reasonably assured. In practice, the Company has not experienced or granted significant returns of product. Shipping fees charged to customers are included in revenue and shipping costs are included in costs of sales.

During the three months ended June 30, 2014, one customer accounted for 92% of the Company’s revenue. There were no sales to this one customer during the three months ended June 30, 2013. During the six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, one customer accounted for 96% and 81% of the Company’s revenue, respectively.

Stock-Based Compensation

Stock–based compensation, including grants of employee and non-employee stock options and modifications to existing stock options, is recognized in the income statement based on the estimated fair value of the awards. The Company uses the Black-Scholes option pricing model to determine the fair value of options granted and recognizes the compensation cost of share-based awards on a straight-line basis over the vesting period of the award.

The determination of the fair value of share-based payment awards utilizing the Black-Scholes model is affected by the stock price and a number of assumptions, including expected volatility, expected life, risk-free interest rate and expected dividends. The Company has a limited history of market prices of the common stock as, and as such volatility is estimated using historical volatilities of similar public entities. The expected life of the awards is estimated based on the simplified method. The risk-free interest rate assumption is based on observed interest rates appropriate for the terms of our awards. The dividend yield assumption is based on history and expectation of paying no dividends. Forfeitures are estimated at the time of grant and revised, if necessary, in subsequent periods if actual forfeitures differ from those estimates. Stock-based compensation expense is recognized in the financial statements on a straight-line basis over the vesting period, based on awards that are ultimately expected to vest.

The Company grants stock options to non-employee consultants from time to time in exchange for services performed for the Company. Equity instruments granted to non-employees are subject to periodic revaluation over their vesting terms. In general, the options vest over the contractual period of the respective consulting arrangement and, therefore, the Company revalues the options periodically and records additional compensation expense related to these options over the remaining vesting period.

Loss per Share

Basic net loss per share is computed based on the net loss for the period divided by the weighted average actual shares outstanding during the period. Diluted net loss per share is computed based on the net loss for the period divided by the weighted average number of common shares and common equivalent shares outstanding during each period unless the effect of such common equivalent shares would be anti-dilutive. Common stock equivalents represent the dilutive effect of the assumed exercise of certain outstanding stock options using the treasury stock method. The weighted average number of common shares for both the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2014 did not include 6,754,620 and 12,391,669 options and warrants, respectively, because of their anti-dilutive effect. The weighted average number of common shares for both the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2013 did not include 8,921,400 and 1,898,400 options and warrants, respectively, because of their anti-dilutive effect.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2014-09, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606).” ASU No 2014-09 supersedes the revenue recognition requirements in “Topic 605, Revenue Recognition” and requires entities to recognize revenue in a way that depicts the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. ASU 2014-09 is effective retrospectively for annual or interim reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016, with early application not permitted. The company is currently evaluating the impact of this standard on its consolidated financial statements.

2. INVENTORIES

Inventories consist of material, labor and manufacturing overhead and are recorded at the lower of cost, using the weighted average cost method, or net realizable value.

The components of inventories at June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, net of inventory reserves, were as follows:

	2014		2013
Raw materials	$	1,259	$	7,672
Work in process		-		-
Finished goods		171,697		102,953
	$	172,956	$	110,625

The Company periodically reviews quantities of inventory on hand and compares these amounts to expected usage of each particular product or product line. The Company records, as a charge to cost of sales, any amounts required to reduce the carrying value to net realizable value.

3. STOCKHOLDERS’ EQUITY

The Company is authorized to issue up to 5,000,000 shares of its $0.001 par value preferred stock and up to 200,000,000 shares of its $0.001 par value common stock. During the year ended December 31, 2013, the Company amended its certificate of incorporation to increase the number of common shares from 100,000,000 to 200,000,000. The amendment went into effect on September 7, 2013.

Common Stock

During the three months ended March 31, 2014, the Company issued 99,000 shares of its restricted common stock with a fair value of $74,160 in exchange for consulting services rendered during those periods in connection with three separate consulting agreements.

On March 31, 2014, the Company issued 833,340 shares of common stock at a price per share of $0.60 and issued warrants to purchase 416,670 additional shares of common stock with an exercise price of $1.00 per share for gross proceeds of $500,000. The Company had received $250,000 of these proceeds during the fourth quarter of 2013 which was recorded as a stock subscription in accrued expenses as of December 31, 2013. The warrants are exercisable immediately and have a five year term. The Company has evaluated these warrants for proper classification based on terms of the warrant agreement and has determined that equity classification is appropriate. The Company estimated the relative fair value of the warrant to be $125,251 using the Black Scholes model, which has been recorded as a component of permanent equity in additional paid in capital.

During the three months ended June 30, 2014, the Company issued 36,000 shares of its restricted common stock with a fair value of $21,540 in exchange for consulting services rendered during those periods in connection with two separate consulting agreements.

4. STOCK OPTION PLAN AND STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION

During the year ended December 31, 2010, the Company adopted a stock option plan entitled “The 2010 Stock Plan” (2010 Plan) under which the Company may grant options to purchase up to 5,000,000 shares of common stock. On September 7, 2013, the 2010 plan was amended to increase the number of shares of common stock issuable under the 2010 Plan to 7,500,000. As of June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, there were 1,278,400 and 578,400 options outstanding under the 2010 Plan, respectively.

During the year ended December 31, 2011, the Company adopted a non-qualified stock option plan entitled “2011 Non-Qualified Stock Plan” (2011 Plan) under which the Company may grant options to purchase 2,100,000 shares of common stock. In December 2012, the 2011 Plan was amended to increase the number of shares of common stock issuable under the 2011 Plan to 12,000,000 shares. During the period ended March 31, 2013, the 2011 Plan was amended to increase the number of shares of common stock issuable under the 2011 Plan to 17,500,000. As of June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, there were 5,476,220 and 5,163,000 options outstanding under the 2011 Plan, respectively.

Under the terms of the stock plans, the Board of Directors shall specify the exercise price and vesting period of each stock option on the grant date. Vesting of the options is typically one to four years and the options typically expire in five to ten years.

In February 2014 the Board of Directors approved a grant of non-qualified stock options to the independent directors of the Company to purchase an aggregate of 279,000 shares of the Company’s common stock. The options were allocated among the directors based on service in, and chairmanship of the Company’s committees and service as lead independent director. The options vest as of December 31, 2014, provided that the directors remain directors on that date and have attended at least 75% of the scheduled meetings of the Board and the committees on which such directors serve during the 2014 calendar year. In addition, during the period ended March 31, 2014, the Company granted incentive stock options to members of management, non-management, and directors of the Company to purchase an aggregate of 800,000 shares of the Company’s common stock at exercises prices ranging from $0.69 to $1.21 per share, of which 450,000 of these options vested immediately. The remaining unvested stock options vest quarterly over a period of one to four years. In addition, the Company granted, to consultants of the Company, non-qualified stock options to purchase up to 140,000 shares of the Company’s common stock at exercise prices ranging from $1.00 to $1.21 per share vesting over a one to two year period. There were no stock options granted during the three months ended June 30, 2014.

The fair value of stock options granted or revalued for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013 was calculated with the following assumptions:

	2014			2013
Risk-free interest rate	0.55% - 2.29	%		0.49% - 1.55	%
Expected dividend yield	0	%		0	%
Volatility factor	85.6 – 98.4	%		85	%
Expected life of option	2.50 to 7 years		4.50 to 6 years

The weighted-average fair value of stock options granted during the six month periods ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, under the Black-Scholes option pricing model was $0.83 and $0.25 per share, respectively.

The Company recognized $106,215 and $192,864 of stock-based compensation costs in the accompanying statement of operations for the three months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively. The Company recognized $609,987 and $385,031 of stock-based compensation costs in the accompanying statement of operations for the six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively. As of June 30, 2014, there was approximately $435,000 of unrecognized compensation expense related to non-vested stock option awards that is expected to be recognized over a weighted average period of 2.35 years.

On June 24, 2011, the Company entered into a definitive Licensing and Manufacturing Agreement (the "Agreement") with Advance Pharmaceutical Company Ltd. ("Advance Pharmaceutical"), a Hong Kong-based privately-held company. Under terms of the Agreement, the Company manufactures and supplies product in bulk for Advance Pharmaceutical. Advance Pharmaceutical is responsible for the packaging, marketing and distribution of SUGARDOWN® in China, Hong Kong, Macau and Korea. Advance Pharmaceutical, through a wholly owned subsidiary, has purchased an aggregate 1,799,800 shares of the Company’s common stock in conjunction with the Company’s private placement offerings during the years ended December 31, 2012 and 2011. The shares were purchased on the same terms as the other participants acquiring shares in the respective offerings. Conroy Chi-Heng Cheng is a director of Advance Pharmaceutical and joined the Company’s Board of Directors in December 2013. Revenue generated pursuant to the Agreement for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2014 were $19,766 and $62,366, respectively. Revenue generated for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2013 were $0 and $20,688, respectively.

On March 14, 2013, the Company issued 500,000 shares of its common stock at a price per share of $0.50 and issued a warrant to purchase 250,000 additional shares with an exercise price of $1.00 per share for gross proceeds of $250,000 to CJY Holdings Limited ("CJY"). The warrant is exercisable immediately and has a five year term. In July 2013 CJY Holdings Limited purchased 6,666,660 shares of the Company’s common stock and warrants to purchase an aggregate of 3,333,320 shares of the Company’s common stock for an aggregate purchase price of $2,000,000 in the private placement conducted by the Company between July 2013 and September 2013.

In December 2013, the Board of Directors agreed to indemnify Dr. Platt for legal costs incurred in connection with an arbitration initiated before the American Arbitration Association by Galectin Therapeutics, Inc. (formerly named Pro-Pharmaceuticals, Inc.) for which Dr. Platt previously served as CEO and Chairman. Galectin seeks to rescind or reform the Separation Agreement entered into with Dr. Platt upon his resignation from Galectin to remove a $1.0 million milestone payment which Dr. Platt asserts he is owed and to be repaid all separation benefits paid to Dr. Platt to date. The Company initially capped the amount for which it will indemnify Dr. Platt at an initial maximum of $150,000 and Dr. Platt agreed to reimburse the indemnification amounts paid by the Company should he prevail in the arbitration. The Board decided to indemnify Dr. Platt after considering a number of factors, including the scope of the Company’s existing indemnification obligations to officers and directors, the potential impact of the arbitration on the Company and Dr. Platt’s agreement to reimburse the Company should he prevail. On May 27, 2014, the Board agreed to increase the indemnification by $50,000 to cover outside expenses associated with the arbitration hearings. As of December 31, 2013, the Company recorded legal expense associated with this indemnification of $119,401. The remaining $30,599 was recorded as legal expense during the three months ended March 31, 2014. The Company recorded an additional $32,697 related to the increased indemnification during the three months ended June 30, 2014. In July 2014, the arbitration was concluded in favor of Dr. Platt.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

The following discussion and analysis is based on, and should be read in conjunction with the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto included elsewhere in this Form 10-Q . This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q contains “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. These statements are often identified by the use of words such as “may,” “will,” “expect,” “believe,” “anticipate,” “intend,” “could,” “estimate,” or “continue,” and similar expressions or variations. Such forward-looking statements are subject to risks, uncertainties and other factors that could cause actual results and the timing of certain events to differ materially from future results expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. The forward-looking statements in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q represent our views as of the date of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. We anticipate that subsequent events and developments will cause our views to change. However, while we may elect to update these forward-looking statements at some point in the future, we have no current intention of doing so except to the extent required by applicable law. You should, therefore, not rely on these forward-looking statements as representing our views as of any date subsequent to the date of this Report on Form 10-Q.

Overview

Boston Therapeutics, Inc., headquartered in Manchester, NH, (OTC: BTHE) is a leader in the field of complex carbohydrate chemistry. The Company's initial product pipeline is focused on developing and commercializing therapeutic molecules for diabetes: BTI-320 (formerly PAZ320), is a non-systemic, non-toxic, therapeutic compound designed to reduce post-meal glucose elevation, and IPOXYN, an injectable anti-necrosis drug specifically designed to treat lower limb ischemia associated with diabetes. In addition, the Company has completed development of SUGARDOWN®, a complex carbohydrate-based dietary supplement. SUGARDOWN® is currently in the initial stage of market introduction, and in June 2011, we entered into an agreement with Advance Pharmaceutical to develop markets in Hong Kong, South Korea, China and Macau. We also have engaged with American Medical Supplies to develop markets in Egypt and Saudi Arabia.

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming the Company will continue as a going concern. The Company has limited resources and operating history. We raised $250,000 in gross proceeds in private placements during the six months ended June 30, 2014. As shown in the accompanying financial statements, the Company has an accumulated deficit of approximately $10.1 million and $1.5 million cash on hand as of June 30, 2014. The future of the Company is dependent upon its ability to obtain financing and upon future profitable operations from the development of its new business opportunities.

Management plans to seek additional capital through private placements and public offerings of its common stock. There can be no assurance that the Company will be successful in accomplishing its objectives. Without such additional capital, the Company may be required to cease operations.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

As of June 30, 2014

As of June 30, 2014, we had cash of $1,508,790 and accounts payable and accrued expenses of $494,005. During the six months ended June 30, 2014, the Company used $2,122,628 of cash in operations.

We have incurred recurring operating losses since inception as we have worked to bring our SUGARDOWN® product to market and develop BTI-320 and IPOXYN. We expect such operating losses will continue until such time that we receive substantial revenues from SUGARDOWN® or we complete the regulatory and clinical development of BTI-320 or IPOXYN. We anticipate that our cash resources will be sufficient to fund our planned operations into the fourth quarter of fiscal 2014. We plan to seek additional capital through private placements and public offerings of the Company’s common stock. There can be no assurance that the Company will be successful in accomplishing its objectives. Without such additional capital, the Company may be required to curtail or cease operations.

OFF-BALANCE SHEET ARRANGEMENTS

We do not have any off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources that are material to our investors.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES

See Note 1 Summary of Significant Accounting Policies, of the Notes to Unaudited Condensed Financial Statements in Part I, Item 1 herein for a discussion of critical accounting policies.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

As a “smaller reporting company” as defined by Item 10 of Regulation S-K, we are not required to provide the information requested by this item, as provided by Regulation S-K Item 305(e).

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Pursuant to Rules 13a-15(b) and 15-d-15(b) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (“Exchange Act”), the Company carried out an evaluation, with the participation of the Company’s management, including the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer of the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this report. The term “disclosure controls and procedures”, as defined under Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act, means controls and other procedures of a company that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by a company in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the SEC's rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by a company in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to the company's management, including its principal executive and principal financial officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Based upon the evaluation of the disclosure controls and procedures at the end of the period covered by this report, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of June 30, 2014.

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

There were no changes in the Company's internal controls over financial reporting during the fiscal period to which this report relates that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company's internal control over financial reporting.

The Company’s management, including the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, do not expect that the Company’s internal control over financial reporting will prevent all errors and all fraud. Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree or compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

PART II - OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1. Legal Proceedings

	The Company may become involved in certain legal proceedings and claims which arise in the normal course of business. On March 12, 2014, a complaint against the Company and the Company's CEO, David Platt, was filed in Middlesex Superior Court in Massachusetts by Eliezer Zomer. Mr. Zomer alleges that the Company and Dr. Platt have refused to deliver 400,000 shares of the Company's Common Stock that Mr. Zomer believes are owed to him, and seeks delivery of the shares and damages. The Company and Dr. Platt intend to contest the allegations set forth in the complaint.
Item 1A. Risk Factors

The Company had received $250,000 of these proceeds during the fourth quarter of 2013 which was recorded as a stock subscription in accrued expenses as of December 31, 2013. The warrants are exercisable immediately and have a five year term. The Company has evaluated these warrants for proper classification based on terms of the warrant agreement and has determined that equity classification is appropriate. The Company estimated the relative fair value of the warrant to be $125,251 using the Black Scholes model, which has been recorded as a component of permanent equity in additional paid in capital. During the three months ended June 30, 2014, the Company issued 36,000 shares of its restricted common stock with a fair value of $21,540 in exchange for consulting services rendered during those periods in connection with two separate consulting agreements.
