HEALTH DISCOVERY CORPORATION

Notes to Financial Statements

Note A - BASIS OF PRESENTATION

Health Discovery Corporation (the “Company”) is a biotechnology-oriented company that has acquired certain rights to patents and has patent pending applications for certain machine learning tools used for diagnostic and drug discovery. The Company licenses the use of its patented protected technology or may develop specific learning tools to sell to third parties. The Company was reported on as a development stage corporation through December 31, 2004.

The accounting principles followed by the Company and the methods of applying these principles conform with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAP). In preparing financial statements in conformity with GAAP, management is required to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts in the financial statements. Actual results could differ significantly from those estimates.

The interim financial statements included in this report are unaudited but reflect all adjustments which, in the opinion of management, are necessary for a fair presentation of the financial position and results of operations for the interim periods presented. All such adjustments are of a normal recurring nature. The results of operations for the period ended March 31, 2006 are not necessarily indicative of the results of a full year’s operations. For further information, refer to the financial statements and footnotes included in the Company’s annual report on Form 10-KSB for the year ended December 31, 2005.

RECLASSIFICATIONS

Certain amounts from 2005 have been reclassified to conform to the presentation used in 2006.

Note B - NET LOSS PER SHARE

Basic Earnings Per Share (“EPS”) includes no dilution and is computed by dividing income or loss available to common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted EPS reflects the potential dilution of securities that could share in the earnings or losses of the entity. Due to the net loss in all periods presented, the calculation of diluted per share amounts would result in an anti-dilutive result and therefore is not presented.

Note C - STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION
 
Effective January 1, 2006, we adopted the provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 123(R), Share-Based Payment (“SFAS No. 123(R)”) using the modified prospective transition method provided for under the standard. SFAS 123(R) establishes accounting for stock-based awards exchanged for employee services. Accordingly, stock-based compensation cost is measured at grant date, based on the fair value of the award, and is recognized as expense over the employee’s requisite service period. We had previously applied Accounting Principles Board (“APB”) Opinion No. 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees, and related interpretations and provided the required pro forma disclosures of SFAS No. 123.
 
The following table illustrates the effect on net loss and loss per share if the Company had applied the fair value recognition provisions of SFAS No. 123, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation, to stock-based employee compensation for periods presented prior to the Company’s adoption of Statement 123(R):

Stock-based expense included in our net loss for the three months ended March 31, 2006 consisted of $495,587 in compensatory warrants and options. Stock-based expense included in our net loss for the three months ended March 31, 2005 consisted of $75,000 for the issuance of common stock to consultants for services.

As of March 31, 2006, there was approximately $659,000 of unrecognized cost related to stock option and warrant grants. The cost is expected to be recognized over the remaining vesting period of approximately 2 years.

The Company granted 2,000,000 options during the first quarter of 2006. The fair value of each option granted in 2006 was $0.11 and was estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes pricing model with the following assumptions: dividend yield at 0%, risk-free interest rate of 5.00%, an expected life of 10 years, and volatility of 133%. Expected option lives and volatilities used in the fair valuation calculations are based on historical data of the Company and the related expense is recognized on a straight-line basis over the vesting period. No options were granted in the first quarter of 2005.

The following schedule summarizes stock option activity for the first quarter of 2006:

During 2006, the Company issued 2,600,000 warrants to consultants and others for services with a weighted-average exercise price of $0.13 per share. A total of $258,724 was recorded as Paid in Capital for Compensatory Warrants. The warrants became exercisable upon issuance.
 
The Company issued 3,000,000 warrants to two directors with an exercise price of $0.13 per share. A total of $29,625 was recorded as Paid in Capital for Compensatory Warrants. The warrants vest at a rate of 500,000 warrants (250,000 warrants for each director) after satisfactory completion of each 6 months of service until 3 years of service has been completed. The expense is being recorded over the service period.
 
The Company issued 1,000,000 warrants to a director with an exercise price of $0.15 per share in conjunction with a common stock sale. The Company has ascribed no value to the warrants associated with the common stock sale described in Note E.
 
The Company issued 765,000 warrants to three of its service providers with a weighted-average exercise price of $0.11 in settlement of certain accounts payable due to the service providers. The Company recorded a total of $55,454 as Paid in Capital for Compensatory Warrants and recognized total gains of $77,546 as a result of the restructuring the accounts payable amounts.
 
In addition, the Company recorded a total of $16,916 during 2006 as Paid in Capital for Compensatory Warrants associated with previous warrant grants that have not fully vested. The expense is being recorded over the service period.
 
Note D - PATENTS

The Company has acquired a group of patents related to biotechnology and certain machine learning tools used for diagnostic and drug discovery. Additionally, legal costs associated with patent acquisitions and the application process are also capitalized as a part of patents. The Company has recorded $3,502,579 in patents and patent related costs, net of accumulated amortization, at March 31, 2006.

Amortization charged to operations for the quarters ended March 31, 2006 and 2005 was $65,680 and $56,819, respectively. The weighted average amortization period for patents is 14 years. Estimated amortization expense for the next five years is $262,575 per year.
 
Note E - STOCKHOLDERS’ EQUITY

During the first quarter of 2006, the Company issued 600,000 shares of its common stock upon the exercise of stock options. Proceeds from the exercise totaled $6,000.

Note E - STOCKHOLDERS’ EQUITY, continued

In addition, the Company sold 1,000,000 shares of its common stock to one of its directors for $100,000. The shares were sold for $.10 per share which was the closing price of the stock on the date of the sale. As part of the purchase, the director also received warrants to purchase an additional 100,000 shares of the Company’s common stock at a fixed price of $.15 per

share until December 2008. No portion of the proceeds was assigned to the value of the warrants because the exercise price of the warrants exceeded the market value of the underlying common stock on the date of purchase.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
 
Corporate Overview
 
Our Company is uniquely positioned in the field of pattern recognition technology. Through the application of our patent protected technology, HDC is a biology-oriented biomarker and pathway discovery company providing all aspects of First-Phase Biomarker Discovery. Our primary business consists of licensing that intellectual property and working with prospective customers on the development of varied products that utilize pattern recognition tools. We also endeavor to develop our own product line of newly discovered biomarkers and pathways that include human genes and genetic variations, as well as gene, protein, and metabolite expression differences. In drug discovery, biomarkers can help elicit disease targets and pathways and validate mechanisms of drug action. They may also be pharmacodynamic indicators of drug activity, response and toxicity for use in clinical development.
 
We intend to provide pharmaceutical and diagnostic companies with all aspects of first phase diagnostic and drug discovery, from expert assessment of the clinical dilemma through proper selection and procurement of high quality specimens. We will then apply our proprietary analytical evaluation methods and state-of-the-art computational analysis to derive relevant and accurate clinical data, producing accurate biomarker and pathway discoveries, resulting in patent protection of our biomarker discoveries for future development.
 
First Phase Biomarker Discovery is based on the belief that in order to discover the most clinically relevant biomarkers, the computational component must begin at the inception of the clinical dilemma to be solved. This process includes several critical levels of decision-making - all of which are part of our business strategy.
 
We intend to produce more relevant and predictable biomarkers for drug discovery so that new and better medicines and diagnostic markers can be developed for patients worldwide.
 
Three Months Ended March 31, 2006 Compared with Three Months Ended March 31, 2005
 
Revenue
 
For the three months ended March 31, 2006, revenue was $105,000 compared with no revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2005, which was reported as a developmental stage company. Revenue was recognized for licensing and development fees.
 
Cost of Sales and Gross Margin
 
No expenses attributable to cost of sales was recorded for 2006. Cost of sales includes all direct costs associated with the acquisition and development of patents and processes sold. All direct costs, primarily professional fees associated with licensing negotiations, are also included in cost of sales. No such direct costs were incurred during the first quarter of 2006.

Operating and Other Expenses
 
Amortization expense was $65,680 for the first quarter of 2006 compared with $56,819 for the first quarter of 2005. This increase was due to amortization being charged in 2006 for intangibles acquired during 2005.
 
Professional and consulting fees totaled $573,229 for the first quarter of 2006 compared with $448,042 for the first quarter of 2005. These fees, related to legal, accounting and scientific activities, were higher in 2006 because of increased regulatory filing activity, patent protection efforts, and general corporate legal and accounting work. The amount for 2006 includes $275,641 in compensatory warrants issued to consultants for services.
 
Compensation of $359,298 for the first quarter of 2006 was higher than the $199,543 reported for the first quarter of 2005. This increase was due to the implementation of SFAS 123(R) favorably offset by a reduction of $17,000 in salaries due to reduced headcount.
 
Other general and administrative expenses increased from $206,364 for the first quarter of 2005 to $240,211 for the first quarter of 2006. This increase is largely due to the extensive sales, marketing, and promotional efforts expended throughout the first quarter of 2006.
 
Loss from Operations
 
The loss from operations for the first quarter of 2006 was $1,133,418 compared to $910,768 for the first quarter of 2005. The increased loss was due to the factors enumerated above.
 
Other Income and Expense
 
Interest income was $4,830 for the first quarter of 2006. No interest income was earned in 2005.
 
A gain on the restructuring of accounts payable of $77,546 was recorded in the first quarter of 2006 to reflect common stock warrants issued in payment of liabilities. No such amount was recorded in the comparable 2005 period.
 
Interest expense was $19,745 in 2006 compared with $17,152 in the first quarter of 2005. This increase was due to interest being charged in 2006 for the debt assumed in 2005, as well as the higher interest rate associated with the renegotiated promissory notes.
 
Net Loss
 
The net loss for the first quarter of 2006 was $1,070,787 compared to $927,920 for the first quarter of 2005. The increased loss was due to the higher loss from operations, offset favorably by the increased other income.

Net loss per share was $0.01 for the first quarter of 2006 and 2005. The larger net loss in 2006 compared to that in 2005 was offset by the increased average number of shares outstanding in 2006.
 
Liquidity and Capital Resources
 
At March 31, 2006, the Company had $522,910 in available cash. Cash used by operating activities was $301,775. This was due primarily to the net loss of $1,070,787; however non-cash charges of $563,014 favorably impacted the computation of the net cash used. Cash used by investment activities was $502 due to the acquisition of assets. Net cash provided by financing activities was $106,000 due to the proceeds from the sale of common stock and the exercise of stock options.
 
A portion of our cash will be used to satisfy the Company’s outstanding debt obligations related to the acquisition of the SVM assets and fees due to professionals for services performed. Scheduled payments of $26,780 on notes resulting from the acquisition of the SVM Portfolio were paid on May 11, 2006.

The Company has relied primarily on equity funding plus debt financing for liquidity during its developmental phase that ended in 2005. The Company produced sales, licensing, and developmental revenue in 2005 and 2006 and must continue to do so in order to generate sufficient cash to continue operations. Our plan to have sufficient cash to support operations is comprised of generating revenue through licensing our significant patent portfolio, providing services related to those patents, and obtaining additional equity or debt financing. We have been and continue to be in meaningful discussions with a variety of parties, which if successful, will result in significant revenue. We have implemented a cash conservation plan that includes salary deferrals, reduction in consulting payments, negotiated settlements with creditors whereby we substituted equity instruments for amounts owed, and a heightened scrutiny of all potential expenditures.
 
Should it prove necessary, the Company may also consider such alternatives as raising additional equity through private placements and/or debt offerings. Although this raises doubt with respect to our ability to operate as a going concern, the Company believes that it has sufficient capability to operate through the next twelve months.
 
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
 
We have no off-balance sheet arrangements that provide financing, liquidity, market or credit risk support or involve leasing, hedging or research and development services for our business or other similar arrangements that may expose us to liability that is not expressly reflected in the financial statements.

Forward-Looking Statement

This Report contains statements which constitute forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. These statements appear in a number of places in this Report and include all statements regarding the intent, belief or current expectations of the Company, its directors or its officers with respect to, among other things: (i) the Company’s financing plans; (ii) trends affecting the Company’s financial condition or results of operations; (iii) the Company’s growth strategy and operating strategy; and (iv) the declaration and payment of dividends. Investors are cautioned that any such forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future performance and involve risks and uncertainties, and that actual results may differ materially from those projected in the forward-looking statements as a result of various factors discussed herein and those factors discussed in detail in the Company’s other filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures.

As of March 31, 2006 (the “Evaluation Date”), we carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and President and our Principal Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures pursuant to Rule 13a-15 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). Based upon this evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and our Principal Financial Officer concluded that, as of the Evaluation Date, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective under Rule 13a-15.
 
Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures will detect or uncover every situation involving the failure of persons within the Company to disclose material information otherwise required to be set forth in the Company’s periodic reports.

The Company’s management is also responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. As of the Evaluation Date, no changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting occurred, that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.
 
PART II—OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1. Legal Proceedings.

On May 25, 2004, we filed suit in the District Court of McLennan County, Texas, against Bill G. Williams, Shirley K. Williams, W. Steven Walker, Jerry W. Petermann and a company controlled by Mr. Williams. In this action we allege that an aggregate of 700,000 shares of our common stock (4,900,000 after a 7-1 stock split) issued to Mr. Williams, Mr. Walker, Mr. Braswell and Mr. Petermann were not issued in compliance with Texas law and we sought to restrain the defendants and persons acting on their behalf or in concert with them from selling any shares of our stock. We also requested that the Court declare we were permitted to cancel the shares issued to the defendants and sought monetary damages, attorney’s fees and costs of the action.
 
In June 2004, Jerry W. Petermann agreed to return to the Company 1,000,000 shares of the Company stock, which were canceled upon return to the Company as full and final settlement of the claims brought in the aforementioned lawsuit. In addition, in June 2004, Robert S. Braswell IV agreed to return to the Company 2,100,000 shares of the company stock, all of which were canceled upon return to the Company.
 
In July 2004, W. Steven Walker Esq., former general counsel, an officer and director of the Company, agreed to settle with the Company and return 366,036 shares of our common stock, which was all of the shares then owned by him, and he will no longer be a party to the suit. Accordingly, only the shares originally issued to Mr. Williams are subject to the suit, and the Company believes he controls approximately 2.1 million shares of our common stock.
 
After several rulings at the District Court, on August 25, 2004 the Court of Appeals for the Tenth District of the State of Texas granted our appeal and entered an order, remanding the case to the original trial judge with instructions to issue a temporary injunction to preserve the status quo. The injunction will remain until a judgment in the case becomes final or the court otherwise instructs. The injunction requires the remaining defendants, their agents, employees, affiliates, any person or entity they control, and any person acting in concert with them to (i) stop and refrain from selling or otherwise disposing of any share of our common stock, and (ii) deposit into the registry of the District Court all shares of our common stock they now own or hold. Costs of the appeal were assessed against the Respondents. The defendants have asserted several counter claims against the Company, including a derivative action, and have brought third-party claims against several current officers of the Company.
 
Item 2. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds.

On September 15, 2003 we completed the sale of 2,750,000 shares of restricted common stock to individual accredited investors at a price of $0.02 per share for a total of $55,000. The securities issued in the private placement were not registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and until they are registered the securities may not be offered or sold in the United States absent registration or the availability of an applicable exemption from registration. The shares were offered and sold in reliance upon exemptions from registration pursuant to Section 4(2) under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Regulation D promulgated thereunder. Based on the information provided by each of the investors, all investors qualify as accredited investors (as defined by Rule 501 under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended). The Company filed a registration statement on September 15, 2003 and agreed that should the Company, before September 15, 2005, propose for itself or any other person, the registration under the Act of any securities of the Company on Form S-1, S-2 or S-3, the Company shall include in any such Registration Statement and in any related underwriting agreements, if the investors so requests, such securities of the investors.

In 2004, the Company issued 422,372 shares for services, including members of the Company’s scientific advisory board. In 2005, the Company issued 2,039,453 shares to consultants and members of the scientific advisory board, 308,133 shares in settlement of liabilities, 3,585,741 shares to noteholders who exchanged their notes for stock and 540,000 shares in accordance with the penalty provisions of the stock purchase agreement as amended February 25, 2005. In December 2005, two consultants who had previously received shares for work performed rescinded 1,580,532 shares. All of these issuances were made in reliance upon exemptions from registration pursuant to Section 4(2) under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.
 
On July 31, 2004, we completed the private sale of 15,235,000 shares of restricted common stock to individual accredited investors at an offering price of $ 0.10 per share for a total of $1,523,500. Under the terms of the sale, the Company issued 15,235,000 restricted common shares. In addition, each purchaser of common shares was granted a warrant to acquire an equal number of restricted common shares at a fixed price of $0.35 per share, exercisable until February 2007. This could result in the issuance of up to 15,235,000 additional restricted common shares upon exercise. We entered into purchase agreements with each of the investors, the form of which is attached as Exhibit 10.6. Neither the shares sold pursuant to the private placement nor the shares issuable upon the exercise of the warrants will be registered under either federal or state securities laws and must be held for at least one year from the time they are issued. The securities issued in the private placement were not registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and until they are registered the securities may not be offered or sold in the United States absent registration or the availability of an applicable exemption from registration. The shares and the warrants, the form of which is attached as Exhibit 10.7, were offered and sold in reliance upon exemptions from registration pursuant to Section 4(2) under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Regulation D promulgated thereunder. Based on the information provided by each of the investors, all investors qualify as accredited investors (as defined by Rule 501 under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended).
 
On March 9, 2005, we completed the private sale of 30,703,125 shares of restricted common stock to certain institutional investors and individual accredited investors at an offering price of $0.16 per share for a total of $4,912,500. For every share of common stock purchased, each investor received warrants to purchase one share of the Company’s common stock at $0.24 per share, exercisable until December 31, 2008. This could result in the issuance of up to 30,703,125 additional restricted common shares upon exercise. We entered into purchase agreements with each of the investors, the form of which is attached as Exhibit 10.8. Under each agreement, the Company agreed to use its best efforts to file a registration statement to register the shares of common stock and the shares underlying the warrants issued and sold to the investors by May 9, 2005, and to use its best efforts to cause the registration statement to be declared effective July 6, 2005. Shares totaling 540,000 were issued in the fourth quarter of 2005 under the penalty provisions of the agreement. The securities issued in the private placement were not registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and until they are registered the securities may not be offered or sold in the United States absent registration or the availability of an applicable exemption from registration. The shares and the warrants, the form of which is attached as Exhibit 10.9, were offered and sold in reliance upon exemptions from registration pursuant to Section 4(2) under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Regulation D promulgated there under. Based on the information provided by each of the investors, all investors qualify as accredited investors (as defined by Rule 501 under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended). Subsequently on March 10, 2005, we filed registration statement No. 333-124750 for 18,609,375 shares of restricted common stock and the equivalent number of warrants.
 
On December 14, 2005, the Company filed registration statement 333-124750 registering 31,622,749 shares of common stock and 32,638,436 shares of common stock underlying warrants with the Securities and Exchange Commission, and the Securities and Exchange Commission declared the registration statement effective on December 20, 2005.

In January 2006, Mr. David Cooper was issued 600,000 shares of the Company’s common stock in exchange for exercising his options, which had an exercise price of $0.01. On March 31, 2006, Mr. William Quirk purchased 1,000,000 shares of the Company’s common stock with accompanying warrants to acquire an equal number of shares. The purchase price for the common shares was $.10 per share, and the exercise price of the warrants is $0.15 per share. All of these issuances were made in reliance upon exemptions from registration pursuant to Section 4(2) under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.
