Item 2.02. Results of Operations and Financial Condition
          On November 1, 2006 Adeza Biomedical Corporation (the “Company”) issued a press release announcing its financial results for the quarter ended September 30, 2006. A copy of the press release is furnished as Exhibit 99.1.
Item 8.01. Other Events
          On October 20, 2006, the Company received an “approvable letter” from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) with respect to the Company’s New Drug Application for Gestiva for the prevention of preterm birth in women with a history of preterm delivery. An approvable letter is an official notification from the FDA that the FDA may approve the company’s NDA if specific conditions are satisfied. The approvable letter for Gestiva requires the completion of an additional animal study and certain other conditions that must be satisfied prior to obtaining final U.S. marketing approval. The approvable letter also outlines several post-approval clinical requirements, which are consistent with recommendations made by the FDA advisory committee in August 2006. The Company has requested a meeting with the FDA to better understand the FDA’s conditions for approval. Satisfying the conditions will require both time and expense. The Company cannot be certain when it will obtain FDA approval for Gestiva, if at all.
          A decision by the FDA regarding three-year exclusivity under Hatch-Waxman for Gestiva is expected to be made at the time of any final approval. Discussions with the FDA regarding the company’s Orphan Drug application for seven-year exclusivity are ongoing. While the Company’s initial request for Orphan Drug designation was not granted, the Company plans to meet with the FDA to provide additional new information for further review by the Agency.
