NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

June 30, 2006

1. ORGANIZATION

The Company 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 $.001 par value. On September 13, 2002 the name was changed to “Starberrys Corporation” as part of a change in the authorized capital stock by the addition of 50,000,000 shares of preferred stock with a par value of $.001. 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. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Accounting Methods

The Company recognizes income and expenses based on the accrual method of accounting.

Dividend Policy

The Company has not adopted a policy regarding payment of dividends.

Basic and Diluted Net Income (Loss) Per Share

Basic net income (loss) per share amounts are computed based on the weighted average number of shares actually outstanding. Diluted net income (loss) per share amounts are computed using the weighted average number of common shares and common equivalent shares outstanding as if shares had been issued on the exercise of common share rights unless the exercise becomes antidilutive and then only the basic per share amounts are shown in the report.

Key Employee Incentive Stock Option Plan

SFAS No. 123, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation,” establishes accounting and reporting standards for stock-based employee compensation plans. As permitted by SFAS No. 123, the Company accounts for such arrangements under APB Opinion No. 25, “Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees” and related interpretations.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

The Company considers all highly liquid instruments purchased with a maturity, at the time of purchase, of less than three months, to be cash equivalents.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

June 30, 2006

2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES - continued

Income Taxes

The Company utilizes the liability method of accounting for income taxes. Under the liability method deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on the differences between financial reporting and the tax bases of the assets and liabilities and are measured using the enacted tax rates and laws that will be in effect, when the differences are expected to reverse. An allowance against deferred tax assets is recognized, when it is more likely than not, that such tax benefits will not be realized.

On June 30, 2006 the Company had a net operating loss available for carryforward of $3,812,223. The tax benefit of approximately $1,219,000 from the loss carry forward has been fully offset by a valuation reserve because the use of the future tax benefit is doubtful since the Company has no operations. The loss carryforward will expire in 2025.

Financial Instruments

The carrying amounts of financial instruments, including cash and accounts payable, are considered by management to be their estimated fair values due to their short term maturities.

Financial and Concentrations Risk

The Company does not have any concentration or related financial credit risk except that it maintains cash in banks in amounts over the insured amounts of $100,000, but are otherwise banks of high integrity.

Research and Development Costs

Research and development costs, including wages, supplies, depreciation of equipment used in the research activity, and any assigned overhead expense, are expensed as incurred.

Revenue Recognition

Revenue will be recognized on the sale and delivery of a product or the completion of a service provided.

Advertising and Market Development

The Company will expense advertising and market development costs as incurred.

2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES - continued

Estimates and Assumptions

Management uses estimates and assumptions in preparing financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Those estimates and assumptions affect the reported amounts of the assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities, and the reported revenues and expenses. Actual results could vary from the estimates that were assumed in preparing these financial statements.

Foreign Currency Translation

Part of the transactions of the Company were completed in Canadian dollars and have been translated to US dollars as incurred, at the exchange rate in effect at the time, and therefore, no gain or loss from the translations is recognized. US dollars are considered to be the functional currency.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

The Company does not expect that the adoption of other recent accounting pronouncements will have a material impact on its financial statements.

3. DEVELOPMENT OF TECHNOLOGIES OWNED BY THE COMPANY

The Company is in the business of researching, developing, acquiring, and commercializing products and services related to color technology outside the visible spectrum, using specialized narrow and N-IR and N-UV sensors and spatial analysis software modeling which translate the invisible into the visible and involving specialized and proprietary information and trade secrets which the Company owns, which is considered to be among its most sensitive, confidential, and proprietary information.

The Company has a working agreement with a contractor to further develop the technology in which the Company has agreed to pay development costs on a semi monthly basis.

4. COMMON CAPITAL STOCK

During the fiscal year ended September 30, 2005, the Company issued the following common shares of capital stock.

1,863,999 shares for cash of $1,292,000 as part of a private offering of the Company’s stock.

2,665,502 shares for payment of debt of $1,332,751 of which $1,235,252 was due former related parties.

10,000 shares for a license.

77,875 shares for services of $58,406.

During the quarter ended December 31, 2005, the company issued 80,000 common shares for cash of $60,000.

During the quarter ended June 30, 2006, the Company issued 66,667 common shares for cash of $50,000.

5. INCENTIVE STOCK OPTIONS

During 2002 the Company granted stock options to related parties of 235,000 shares of common stock at $1.00 per share, which will expire in June and December 2006. On the date of the grants the fair market value of the shares was $.50 per share.

On August 15, 2004 the Company granted stock options to a related party to purchase 300,000 common shares at $.10 per share, which will expire August 15, 2009. The options will vest at 25,000 shares each quarter starting on August 15, 2004. On the date of grant the fair market value of the shares was $.50 per share.

During August 2005 the Company granted incentive stock options to related parties to purchase 600,000 common shares at $.75 per share, which will expire August 2009. On the date of the grants the fair market value of the shares was $.75 per share.

During the first three quarters of fiscal 2006, the Company issued stock options to purchase 606,000 common shares at $0.75, which options will expire in March 2010, to certain consultants involved in research and development for the Company.

None of the options had been exercised by the report date.

SFAS No. 123, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation,” establishes accounting and reporting standards for stock-based employee compensation plans. As permitted by SFAS No. 123, the Company accounts for such arrangements under the intrinsic value method as provided in APB Opinion No. 25, “Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees” and related interpretations.

The Company applies the intrinsic value method in accounting for its compensation based stock options. If the Company had measured the options under the fair value based method the net pro-forma operating loss and loss per share amounts for the year ended June 30, 2006 would not have been materially different.

6. SIGNIFICANT TRANSACTIONS WITH RELATED PARTIES

Officer-directors and key consultants have acquired 18 % of the outstanding common stock and have received the stock options outlined in note 5.

7. 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.

8. GOING CONCERN

The Company does not have the working capital for any future planned activity which raises substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern.

Continuation of the Company as a going concern is dependant upon obtaining additional working capital. The management of the Company has developed a strategy that it believes will accomplish this objective through additional equity funding, payment of debt by the issuance of common stock, and contributions to capital by officers, which should enable the Company to conduct operations for the coming year.

I TEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OR PLAN OF OPERATIONS

Overview

The Company was incorporated on October 8, 1998 under the laws of the State of Nevada. The Company's Articles of Incorporation currently provide that the Company is authorized to issue 200,000,000 shares of Common Stock, par value $0.001 per share, and 50,000,000 shares of Preferred Stock with such terms as will be specified by the Board of Directors at the time it acts to create a specific series of the Preferred Stock to be issued. As of June 30, 2006 there were 16,453,891 Common Shares and no Preferred Shares outstanding.

The Company has no current commercial products. The Company is in the business of researching, developing, acquiring, and commercializing products and services related to color technology outside the visible spectrum, using specialized narrow and N-IR and N-UV sensors and spatial analysis software modeling which translate the invisible into the visible. The Company owns or has obtained an exclusive license to use this specialized and proprietary color technology.

On June 16, 2004, the Company entered into a contract with eVision Technologies Corporation for the development of its color technology providing 3D spectral-based pattern file creation and matching. Color pattern files can be created from any digital photograph or scan, without having to reprint, recreate, recall or modify existing digital source of documents. Those pattern files can then be matched against existing databases to detect and identify crime, forgery, counterfeiting and other frauds. The Company believes that its technology has the potential to provide a new, accurate and fast detection tool for critical applications such as national security, forgery/fraud prevention, brand protection, and product tampering. As of the date of this filing, no material progress has been made towards such development.

On December 16, 2005 the Company entered into a research and development contract with RatLab LLC, a privately-owned research laboratory in Seattle, Washington. The contract calls for monthly payments by the Company to RatLab LLC for an initial research Phase 1 and 2, expected to last approximately six months through June 2006. The contract also includes provisions for extending the payments and research agreement for multiple phases, which could extend in excess of one year. Under the contract, RatLab will perform 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 technologies in the areas of brand and forgery protection, homeland security, medical diagnostics, and color-based file creation and matching. If the Company is successful in raising additional funds, it intends to extend the research and development contract with RatLab LLC for additional research phases.

RatLab LLC is a research laboratory formed primarily by Dr. Thomas Furness, founder and former director of the Human Interface Technology Lab (HitLab) at the University of Washington, and one of the leading researchers in the world in the area of human interface technology. Dr. Furness also is the founder of the Virtual World Consortium, an organization of more than fifty leading technology companies and enterprises dedicated to sharing and advancing research in many scientific research areas important to the Company. The Company has been a member of the Virtual World Consortium since July 2005.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OR PLAN OF OPERATIONS - continued

RatLab LLC also employs other leading scientists and research associates in the areas of computer science, imaging technology, and light sensing technology, who will be part of the team conducting research on behalf of the Company.

During the quarter ended June 30, 2006, the Company, with the work and assistance of Ratlab LLC, filed three patent applications on its technologies.

The Company 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 capitalize upon the potential business opportunities in the areas of national security, document forgery/fraud, brand protection, label fraud and product tampering.

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 develop its technology and acquire new businesses. The Company intends to raise further funds through private placements of the Company's common stock. The financing activities of the Company are current and ongoing, and it will expand and accelerate its marketing 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 and/or business acquisitions 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 $60,000 per month, and the Company does not have sufficient funds to cover existing operations. The Company will need to raise additional funds in order to continue its existing operations 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 three months ended June 30, 2006, the Company raised $50,000 in additional funds through the sale of 66,667 common shares, and plans to raise a minimum of $500,000 and a maximum of $1,300,000 through the sale of common shares during the remainder of 2006. If the Company is successful in raising additional funds, the Company’s research and development efforts will continue and expand.

If the Company is successful in raising additional funds, it intends to hire two to three programmers and/or software engineers to accelerate its research and development program and complete the development of its technology, as well as file additional patents and initiate marketing of the technology. If additional personnel are hired, the Company expects to have a product available for demonstration within the following six months. The Company’s software currently is in modular form, and eventually will be developed into software development kits specific to market/application needs. In lieu of such hirings, the Company may contract with certain research organizations to perform development activities on behalf of the Company.

In addition to securing the necessary funds, commercialization of the Company’s technology and the availability of a marketable product are dependent upon a number of factors including:

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OR PLAN OF OPERATIONS - continued

(i) Securing patent protection for the Company’s intellectual property. The Company has filed three patent applications on its core technology, and expects to receive notification from the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office sometime in 2007 as to whether a patent or patents will be granted.

(ii) Development of new applications for the Company’s technology and pursuit of new markets and market segments that will utilize the technology.

(iii) Ongoing patent research and writing relating to the evolution of the Company’s technology and its product application(s) as the Company’s technology is tested and refined.

In July 2005 the Company became a member of the University of Washington HIT Lab Consortium. The Lab is supported in part by the Virtual Worlds Consortium, a group of over 45 companies or organizations that provide funding and direction to the Lab. These companies include: Advanced Telecommunications Research (ATR), Alias/Wavefront, American Express Company, Armstrong Aeromedical Research Laboratory (AAMRL), Battelle, The Broken Hill Proprietary Company (BHP), Boeing, Chevron Petroleum Technology Company, Change Tools, Eastman Kodak Company, Fluke, Ford Motor Company, Franz, Fujitsu, Hewlett Packard, Hughes, Industrial Technology Research Institute, Intel Corporation, Institute for Information Industry, Kopin Corporation, Lockheed-Martin, Marconi Aerospace Systems Inc., Microsoft, Microvision Inc., Museum of Flight, NBBJ, NEC Corporation, Nike, Omron Corporation, Pentax Corporation, Philips, Reachin Technologies, Rockwell Science Center Inc., Samsung, SensAble Technologies, Sense8/EAI, Sharp Corporation, Stratos, Sun Microsystems, Tektronix, Telecom Italia, Texas Instruments, U.S. Navy, U.S. West Communications, VisionGate, and Virtual Vision.

Membership in the HIT Lab Consortium enables the Company to conduct specific testing and research projects at the HIT Lab involving its color screening technology. Other potential benefits of membership in the Consortium include academic testing, validation and certification of the Company’s technology, recommendations for technology investments and additional applications for the Company’s technology, and introductions to strategic partners and prospective customers in the industry.

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, 2005 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").

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OR PLAN OF OPERATIONS - continued

The Company's financial statements are stated in United States Dollars and are prepared in accordance with United States Generally Accepted Accounting Principles.

RISK FACTORS

There are certain inherent risks which will have an effect on the Company’s development in the future and some of these risk factors are noted below but are not all encompassing since there may be others unknown to management at the present time which might have an impact on the future on the development of the Company.

1 . The Company is uncertain if it will be able to obtain additional capital necessary for its development.

The Company has incurred a cumulative net loss for the period from October 8, 1998 (date of inception) to June 30, 2006 of $3,812,223. For the three-month period ended June 30, 2006, the Company had no revenues, insufficient funds to sustain operations at their current level, and a net loss of $281,436. As a result of these losses and negative cash flows from operations, the Company’s ability to continue operations and to continue as a going concern is dependent upon the availability of and the Company’s ability to obtain additional capital from outside sources until such time, if ever, as it achieves profitability.

2. Whether the Company will continue to be a going concern

The Company’s auditors’ concern in the audit opinion with regard to the Company’s financial statements as at September 30, 2005, as to whether the Company will be able to raise sufficient funds to complete its objectives indicates that the Company might not be able to continue as a going concern. Without adequate future financing, the Company might cease to operate and the existing shareholders and any future shareholders will lose their entire investment.

3 . Some of the present shareholders have acquired shares at extremely low prices

Some of the present shareholders have acquired shares at prices ranging from $0.001 to $0.25 per share whereas other shareholders have purchased their shares at $0.50 and $0.75 per share. In addition, the Company has issued 300,000 stock options to a related party at $0.10 per share exercisable in whole or in part on or before August 15, 2009.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OR PLAN OF OPERATIONS - continued

4 . Future issuance of stock options, warrants and/or rights will have a diluting factor on existing and future shareholders

The grant and exercise of stock options, warrants or rights to be issued in the future would likely result in a dilution of the value of the Company’s common shares for all shareholders. The Company has established a Combined Incentive and Non-Qualified Stock Option Plan, and may in the future issue further stock options to officers, directors and consultants which will dilute the interest of the existing and future shareholders. Moreover, the Company may seek authorization to increase the number of its authorized shares and to sell additional securities and/or rights to purchase such securities at any time in the future. Dilution of the value of the common shares would likely result from such sales.

5 . The Company does not expect to declare or pay any dividends

The Company has not declared or paid any dividends on its common stock since its inception, and it does not anticipate paying any such dividends for the foreseeable future.

6 . Conflict of interest

Some of the Directors of the Company are also directors and officers of other companies and conflicts of interest may arise between their duties as directors of the Company and as directors and officers of other companies.

7 . Concentration of ownership by management.

The management of the Company, either directly or indirectly, owns 1,472,500 shares. Even though this represents only 8.95% of the issued and outstanding shares, it might be difficult for any one shareholder to solicit sufficient votes to replace the existing management. Therefore, any given shareholder may never have a voice in the direction of the Company.

8. Key-man insurance

The Company carries no key-man insurance. In the event that either Mr. Erickson, Mr. Brier, or Mr. Goldberg departed the Company or passed away, the Company would not have the available funds to attract an individual of similar experience. Management is considering obtaining key-man insurance once it has sufficient funds to do so.

9. Limited full time employees

The only director who works full time for the Company is its President, Ralph Brier. The other directors will devote time to the activities of the Company as required from time to time. At the present time, the Company has no other full-time employees other than Ralph Brier.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OR PLAN OF OPERATIONS - continued

10. Future trading in the Company’s stock may be restricted by the SEC’s Penny Stock Regulations which may limit a stockholder’s ability to buy and sell the Company’s shares when, and if, the shares are eventually quoted.

The SEC has adopted regulations which generally define "penny stock" to be any equity security that has a market price (as defined) less than $5.00 per share or an exercise price of less than $5.00 per share, subject to certain exceptions. The Company’s shares are covered by the penny stock rules, which impose additional sales practice requirements on broker-dealers who sell to persons other than established customers and "accredited investors." The term "accredited investor" refers generally to institutions with assets in excess of $5,000,000 or individuals with a net worth in excess of $1,000,000 or annual income exceeding $200,000 or $300,000 jointly with their spouse. The penny stock rules require a broker-dealer, prior to a transaction in a penny stock not otherwise exempt from the rules, to deliver a standardized risk disclosure document in a form prepared by the SEC which provides information about penny stocks and the nature and level of risks in the penny stock market.

The broker-dealer also must provide the customer with current bid and offer quotations for the penny stock, the compensation of the broker-dealer and its salesperson in the transaction and monthly account statements showing the market value of each penny stock held in the customer's account.

The bid and offer quotations, and the broker-dealer and salesperson compensation information, must be given to the customer orally or in writing prior to effecting the transaction and must be given to the customer in writing before or with the customer's confirmation. In addition, the penny stock rules require that prior to a transaction in a penny stock not otherwise exempt from these rules, the broker-dealer must make a special written determination that the penny stock is a suitable investment for the purchaser and receive the purchaser's written agreement to the transaction. These disclosure requirements may have the effect of reducing the level of trading activity in the secondary market for the stock that is subject to broker-dealers to trade in the Company’s securities. The Company believes that the penny stock rules discourage investor interest in and limit the marketability of, its common stock when, and if, it is called for trading. The Company feels that its shares will be considered to be penny stock when the shares are finally quoted.

11. Recently Enacted and Proposed Regulatory Changes

Recently enacted and proposed changes in the laws and regulations affecting public companies, including the provisions of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 and rules proposed by the SEC and NASDAQ could cause the Company to incur increased costs as it evaluates the implications of new rules and responds to new requirements. The new rules will make it more difficult for the Company to obtain certain types of insurance, including directors and officers liability insurance, and the Company may be forced to accept reduced policy limits and coverage or incur substantially higher costs to obtain the same or similar coverage. The impact of these events could also make it more difficult for the Company to attract and retain qualified persons to serve on the Company's board of directors, or as executive officers. The Company is presently evaluating and monitoring developments with respect to these new and proposed rules, and it cannot predict or estimate the amount of the additional costs it may incur or the timing of such costs.
