ITEM 1. BUSINESS

Background

Janel World Trade, Ltd. (“we”, “the Company” or “Janel”) provides logistics services for importers and exporters worldwide, through its wholly owned subsidiaries. During the current fiscal year we started a new business segment which is comprised of vertical sales and supply chain services primarily in the food industry. Our principal executive office is located at 150-14 132 nd Avenue, Jamaica, NY 11434, adjacent to the John F. Kennedy International Airport, and our telephone number is 718-527-3800. Information about us may be obtained from our website www.janelgroup.net. Copies of our Annual Report on Form 10-K, quarterly reports on Form 10-Q, current reports on Form 8-K, are available free of charge on the website as soon as they are filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) through a link to the SEC’s EDGAR reporting system. Simply select the “Investors” menu item, then click on the “SEC Filings” link. The SEC’s EDGAR reporting system can also be accessed directly at www.sec.gov . The Company was incorporated in Nevada in August 2000 as the successor to operations commenced in 1975 – see history, below.

In July 2008, the Company acquired the customs brokerage “book of business” of Ferrara International Logistics, Inc., a New Jersey corporation (“FIL”), consisting of books, records, forms, manuals, access codes, goodwill, customer lists and contact information, telephone and advertising listings for the expansion of the Company’s international integrated logistics transport services business. On October 4, 2010, the Company acquired the international freight forwarding assets of FIL, consisting of books, records, forms, access codes, goodwill, customer lists and contact information, telephone and advertising listings for the expansion of the Company’s international freight forwarding business, pursuant to the terms of an Asset Purchase Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) between the Registrant and FIL dated October 4, 2010. The purchase price paid and to be paid under the terms of the Purchase Agreement consists of (i) cash in an amount equal to 70% of the annual actual earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (EBITDA) achieved over the three 12-month periods following the Closing (the “Earn-Out Period”) from revenues generated from the customers included in the purchased assets, and (ii) 1,714,286 restricted shares of the Registrant’s Common Stock valued at $600,000 based on the closing market price of the stock on October 1, 2010 (the “Share Allocation”), issued pursuant to an exemption from registration set forth in Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933 and Regulation D promulgated there under. The Share Allocation is subject to decrease if actual EBITDA from revenues generated from the customers included in the purchased assets during the Earn-Out Period is below $2 million, and will be issued in three installments on October 4, 2011, 2012 and 2013.

Description of Business

The Company operates its business as two reportable segments. Primarily we are a non-asset based third party logistics services company, engaged in full-service cargo transportation logistics management, including freight forwarding – via air, ocean and land-based carriers, customs brokerage services, and warehousing and distribution services. Our second, smaller segment is comprised of vertical sales and supply chain services primarily in the food industry and includes supplier selection, manufacturing, transportation, import, distribution, marketing and sales within the food industry. During our 2011 fiscal year we discontinued our computer software sales, support and maintenance business segment.

Our traditional freight forwarding and customs brokerage activities include various value-added logistics services, such as freight consolidation, insurance, a direct client computer access interface, logistics planning, landed-cost calculations, in-house computer tracking, product repackaging, online shipment tracking and electronic billing. The value-added services and systems are intended to help our customers streamline operations, reduce inventories, increase the speed and reliability of worldwide deliveries and improve the overall management and efficiency of the customer’s supply-chain activities.

We operate out of seven leased locations in the United States: Jamaica (headquarters) and Lynbrook (accounting) in New York; Elk Grove Village (Chicago, Illinois); Forest Park (Atlanta, Georgia); Inglewood (Los Angeles, California) and two locations in Hillside (Newark, New Jersey). Each Janel office is managed independently, with each manager having over 20 years experience with the Company. Janel Shanghai, Janel Hong Kong and Janel China (Shenzhen) operate as independently owned franchises within the Company’s network.

Janel conducts its business through a network of Company-operated facilities and independent agent relationships in most trading countries. During fiscal 2011 (Janel’s fiscal year ends September 30), the Company handled approximately 34,000 individual import and export shipments, predominately originating or terminating in the United States, Europe and the Far East. Janel generated gross revenue of approximately $98.5 million in fiscal 2011, $88.4 million in fiscal 2010 and $71.7 million in 2009. In fiscal 2011, approximately 72% of revenue related to import activities, 6% to export, 19% to break-bulk and forwarding, and 3% to warehousing, distribution and trucking. By operating segment, total 2011 revenue was comprised of $98.4 million for transportation logistics and $54,000 for food sales.

History

Janel commenced business in 1975 as Janel International Forwarding Company, Inc., a New York corporation. In 1976, the “Janel Group” was established in New York City as a company primarily focused on quality import customs brokerage and related transportation services. Janel’s initial customer base consisted of importers and exporters of machines and machine parts, principally through what was then West Germany. Shortly thereafter, the Company began expanding its business scope into project transportation and high-value general cargo forwarding. In 1979, Janel expanded to the Midwest and West Coast, opening branches in Chicago and Los Angeles, respectively. Additional locations were opened in Atlanta (1995) and Miami (franchise agent) (1997). In 1980, C and N Corp. was organized as a Delaware corporation to be the corporate parent of the various Janel Group operating subsidiaries.

In 1990, Janel agreed to the use of its name by a Bangkok, Thailand office to facilitate business operations during 1990 and 1992 in which it serviced a United States cellular communications carrier. In 1997, Janel designed and manufactured (through a subcontractor) electronic switching equipment shelters, which it sold to the carrier together with consulting services on transportation logistics and coordination for construction of cellular telephone sites in Thailand.

In 2000, Janel opened the office in Shanghai, China, followed by the opening of the Hong Kong office in 2001 and the opening of an office in Shenzhen, China in 2003. These offices utilize the Janel name but are independently owned and operated by non-related third parties.

In June and July 2002, the corporate parent, C and N Corp., entered into and completed a reverse merger transaction with Wine Systems Design, Inc. in which it formally changed its state of incorporation from Delaware to Nevada, changed its corporate name to Janel World Trade, Ltd. and became a public company traded on the Nasdaq Bulletin Board under the symbol “JLWT.”

In October 2007, the Company acquired certain assets of Order Logistics, Inc. (OLI) consisting of proprietary technology, intellectual property (including the name “Order Logistics”), office locations and equipment and customer lists for use in the management and expansion of the Company’s international integrated logistics transport services business.

In July 2008, the Company acquired the customs brokerage “book of business” of Ferrara International Logistics, Inc. (FIL), consisting of books, records, forms, manuals, access codes, goodwill, customer lists and contact information, telephone and advertising listings for the expansion of the Company’s international integrated logistics transport services business. In October 2010, the Company acquired the remaining assets of FIL (see above for a description of the FIL transaction), consisting of the international freight forwarding services associated with the movement of air and ocean shipments, warehousing (handling and storage) and trucking.

Operations

Freight Forwarding Services. As a cargo freight forwarder, Janel procures shipments from its customers, consolidates shipments bound for a particular destination from a common place of origin, determines the routing over which the consolidated shipment will move, selects a carrier (air, ocean, land) serving that route on the basis of departure time, available cargo capacity and rate, and books the consolidated shipment for transportation with the selected carrier. In addition, Janel prepares all required shipping documents, delivers the shipment to the transporting carrier and, in many cases, and arranges clearance of the various components of the shipment through customs at the final destination. If so requested by its customers, Janel will also arrange for delivery of the individual components of the consolidated shipment from the arrival terminal to their intended consignees.

- 3 -

As a result of its consolidation of customer shipments and its ongoing volume relationships with numerous carriers, a freight forwarder is usually able to obtain lower rates from such carriers than its customers could obtain directly. Accordingly, a forwarder is generally able to offer its customers a lower rate than would otherwise be available directly to the customer, providing the forwarder with its profit opportunity as an intermediary between the carrier and end-customer. The forwarder’s gross profit is represented by the difference between the rate it is charged by the carrier and the rate it, in turn, charges its customer.

In fulfilling its intermediary role, the forwarder can draw upon the transportation assets and capabilities of any individual carrier or combination thereof comprised of airlines and/or air cargo carriers, ocean shipping carriers and land-based carriers, such as trucking companies. Janel solicits freight from its customers to fill containers, charging rates lower than the rates that would be offered directly to its customers for similar type shipments.

Customs Brokerage Services . As part of its integrated logistics services, Janel provides customs brokerage clearance services in the United States and in most foreign countries. These services typically entail the preparation and assembly of required documentation in many instances (Janel provides in-house translation services into Chinese, Spanish or Italian), the advancement of customs duties on behalf of importers, and the arrangement for the delivery of goods after the customs clearance process is completed. Additionally, other services may be provided such as the procurement and placement of surety bonds on behalf of importers and the arrangement of bonded warehouse services, which allow importers to store goods while deferring payment of customs duties until the goods are delivered.

Janel has over 30 years of experience clearing a wide range of goods through U.S. Customs, from automobiles to heavy machinery to textiles. The Company currently has seven fully licensed customs house brokers on staff. Janel is fully certified with U.S. Customs for both ABI and AES transmissions. The Company has established an active “correspondent Customs House Broker Network” of individuals specially chosen for their ability to service customers throughout those locations in the United States where Janel does not have its own branch office. In addition, the Company regularly works with a group of proven independent attorneys, whose specialization in transportation, U.S. Customs law and classifications has resulted in substantial savings to customers.

Other Logistic Services . In addition to providing air, ocean and land freight forwarding and customs brokerage services, Janel provides its import and export customers with an array of fully integrated global logistics services. These logistics services include warehousing and distribution services, door-to-door freight pickup and delivery, cargo consolidation and de-consolidation, project cargo management, insurance, direct client computer access interface, logistics planning, landed-cost calculations, duty-drawback (recovery of previously paid duties when goods are re-exported), in-house computer tracking, product promotion, product packaging and repackaging utilizing Janel mobile packaging machinery, domestic pickup and forwarding, “hazmat” certifications for hazardous cargoes, letters of credit, language translation services, online shipment tracking and electronic billing.

In April 2011, Janel started a new business segment which is comprised of vertical sales primarily in the food industry. This new segment is involved with supply chain services including supplier selection, manufacturing, transportation, import, distribution, marketing and sales within the food industry. Products are purchased from suppliers and held in inventory for the sale of the products at a future date. When selling to supermarket chains, the Company is required to prepay fees (commonly referred to as slotting fees) for positioning of retail store shelf space.

Information Systems. Janel’s information system hardware consists of an IBM AS 400 system that is utilized by all of its offices in the United States. The Company’s information technology capabilities also include DCS/HBU Logistics software (a fully integrated freight forwarding and financial reporting system), a T-1 online national network, recently acquired Web-based supply-chain technology, and a nationwide in-house e-mail network. These systems enable Janel to perform in-house computer tracking and to offer customers landed-cost calculations and online Internet information availability via the Company’s websites relative to the tracing and tracking of customer shipments. The fully integrated real time performance provides us with accurate and timely financial information.

Customers, Sales and Marketing

While Janel’s customer base represents a multitude of diverse industry groups, the bulk of the Company’s shipments are related to three principal markets: consumer wearing apparel and textiles, machines and machine parts, and household appliances. During fiscal 2011, the Company shipped goods and provided logistics services for approximately 1,200 individual accounts. Janel markets its global cargo transportation and integrated logistics services worldwide. In markets where the Company does not operate its own facilities, its direct sales efforts are supplemented by the referral of business through one or more of the Company’s franchise or agent relationships. We have two customers that each account for over 10% of our revenues in fiscal 2011: The Conair Corporation (which accounts for approximately 16% of revenue) and H.H. Brown Shoe Company (which accounts for approximately 14% of revenue).

James N. Jannello and William J. Lally, the Company’s President, are principally responsible for the marketing of the Company’s services. Each branch office manager is responsible for sales activities in their U.S. local market area. Janel attempts to cultivate strong, long-term relationships with its customers and referral sources through high-quality service and management.

Competition

Competition within the freight forwarding industry is intense, characterized by low economic barriers to entry resulting in a large number of highly fragmented participants around the world. Janel competes for customers on the basis of its services and capabilities against other providers ranging from multinational, multi-billion dollar firms with hundreds of offices worldwide to regional and local freight forwarders to “mom-and-pop” businesses with only one or a few customers. Many of our customers utilize more than one transportation provider.

Employees

As of September 30, 2011, Janel employed 79 people; 37 in its Jamaica, New York headquarters, and Lynbrook, New York back office; 13 in Hillside, New Jersey; 11 in Elk Grove Village, Illinois; 5 in Forest Park, Georgia: and 13 in Inglewood, California. Approximately 60 of the Company’s employees are engaged principally in operations, 13 in finance and administration and six in sales, marketing and customer service. Janel is not a party to any collective bargaining agreement and considers its relations with its employees to be good.

To retain the services of highly qualified, experienced and motivated employees, Janel management emphasizes an incentive compensation program and adopted a stock option plan in December 2002.

Currency Risks

The nature of Janel’s operations requires it to deal with currencies other than the U.S. Dollar. This results in the Company being exposed to the inherent risks of international currency markets and governmental interference. A number of countries where Janel maintains offices or agent relationships have currency control regulations that influence its ability to hedge foreign currency exposure. The Company tries to compensate for these exposures by accelerating international currency settlements among those offices or agents.

Inflation

We do not believe that the relatively moderate rates of inflation in the United States in recent years have had a significant effect on our operations.

Seasonality and Shipping Patterns

Historically, Janel’s quarterly operating results have been subject to seasonal trends. The fiscal first quarter has traditionally been the weakest and the fiscal third and fourth quarters have traditionally been the strongest. This pattern has been the result of, or influenced by, numerous factors including climate, national holidays, consumer demand, economic conditions and other similar and subtle forces. This historical seasonality has also been influenced by the growth and diversification of Janel’s international network and service offerings.

A significant portion of Janel’s revenues are derived from customers in industries with shipping patterns closely tied to consumer demand and from customers with shipping patterns dependent upon just-in-time production schedules. Many of Janel’s customers may ship a significant portion of their goods at or near the end of a quarter. Therefore, the timing of Janel’s revenues are, to a large degree, affected by factors beyond the Company’s control, such as shifting consumer demand for retail goods and manufacturing production delays. The Company cannot accurately forecast many of these factors, nor can it estimate the relative impact of any particular factor and, as a result, there is no assurance that historical patterns will continue in the future.

- 5 -

Environmental Issues

In the United States, Janel is subject to federal, state and local provisions regulating the discharge of materials into the environment or otherwise for the protection of the environment. Similar laws apply in many foreign jurisdictions in which Janel operates. Although current operations have not been significantly affected by compliance with these environmental laws, governments are becoming increasingly sensitive to environmental issues and the Company cannot predict what impact future environmental regulations may have on its business. Janel does not anticipate making any material capital expenditures for environmental control purposes during the remainder of the current or succeeding fiscal years.

Regulation

With respect to Janel’s activities in the air transportation industry in the United States, it is subject to regulation by the Department of Transportation as an indirect air carrier. The Company’s overseas offices and agents are licensed as freight forwarders in their respective countries of operation. Janel is licensed in each of its offices as a freight forwarder by the International Air Transport Association. IATA is a voluntary association of airlines which prescribes certain operating procedures for freight forwarders acting as agents of its members. The majority of the Company’s freight forwarding businesses is conducted with airlines that are IATA members.

Janel is licensed as a customs broker by the Department of Homeland Security Customs and Border Service. All U.S. customs brokers are required to maintain prescribed records and are subject to periodic audits by the Customs Service. In other jurisdictions in which Janel performs clearance services, it is licensed by the appropriate governmental authority.

Janel is registered as an Ocean Transportation Intermediary and licensed as a NVOCC carrier (non-vessel operating common carrier) by the Federal Maritime Commission. The FMC has established certain qualifications for shipping agents, including certain surety bonding requirements.

Janel does not believe that current U.S. and foreign governmental regulations impose significant economic restraint on its business operations.

Cargo Liability

When acting as an airfreight consolidator, Janel assumes a carrier’s liability for lost or damaged shipments. This legal liability is typically limited by contract to the lower of the transaction value or the released value ($9.07 per pound unless the customer declares a higher value and pays a surcharge), excepted for loss or damages caused by willful misconduct in the absence of an appropriate airway bill. The airline that the Company utilizes to make the actual shipment is generally liable to Janel in the same manner and to the same extent. When acting solely as the agent of an airline or shipper, Janel does not assume any contractual liability for loss or damage to shipments tendered to the airline.

When acting as an ocean freight consolidator, Janel assumes a carrier’s liability for lost or damaged shipments. This liability is strictly limited by contract to the lower of a transaction value or the released value ($500 for package or customary freight unit unless the customer declares a higher value and pays a surcharge). The steamship line which Janel utilizes to make the actual shipment is generally liable to the Company in the same manner and to the same extent. In its ocean freight forwarding and customs clearance operations, Janel does not assume cargo liability.

When providing warehouse and distribution services, Janel limits its legal liability by contract to an amount generally equal to the lower of fair value or $.50 per pound with a maximum of $50 per “lot,” defined as the smallest unit that the warehouse is required to track. Upon payment of a surcharge for warehouse and distribution services, Janel would assume additional liability.

The Company maintains marine cargo insurance covering claims for losses attributable to missing or damaged shipments for which it is legally liable. Janel also maintains insurance coverage for the property of others stored in company warehouse facilities.

ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS

An investment in our Common Stock is subject to risks inherent to our business. The material risks and uncertainties that management believes affect the Company are described below. Additional risks and uncertainties that management is not aware of or focused on or that management currently deems immaterial may also impair the Company’s business operations.

Risk Factors Relating To Our Business Generally

We face aggressive competition from freight carriers with greater financial resources and with companies that operate in areas that we plan on expanding to in the future.

We face intense competition within the freight industry on a local, regional, national and global basis. Many of our competitors have much larger facilities and far greater financial resources than ours. In the freight forwarding industry, we compete with a large and diverse group of freight forwarding concerns, commercial air and ocean carriers and a large number of locally established companies in geographic areas where we do business or intend to do business in the future. The loss of customers, agents or employees to competitors could adversely impact our ability to maintain profitability.

Failure to Comply with Governmental Permit and Licensing Requirements, Statutory and Regulatory Requirements Could Result in Civil and Criminal Sanctions, Fines or Revocation of Our Operating Authorities, and Changes in These Requirements Could Adversely Affect Us.

Our operations are subject to various state, local, federal and foreign statutes and regulations prohibiting various activities, that in many instances require permits and licenses. Our failure to maintain compliance with applicable law and regulations, required permits or licenses, or to comply with applicable regulations, could result in substantial fines or revocation of our operating authorities. Moreover, government deregulation efforts, “modernization” of the regulations governing customs clearance and changes in the international trade and tariff environment could require material expenditures or otherwise adversely affect us.

Our Ability to Serve Our Customers Depends on the Availability of Cargo Space from Third Parties.

Our ability to serve our customers depends on the availability of air and sea cargo space, including space on passenger and cargo airlines and ocean carriers that service the transportation lanes that we use. Shortages of cargo space are most likely to develop around holidays and in especially heavy transportation lanes. In addition, available cargo space could be reduced as a result of decreases in the number of passenger airlines or ocean carriers serving particular shipment lanes at particular times. This could occur as a result of economic conditions, transportation strikes, regulatory changes and other factors beyond our control. Our future operating results could be adversely affected by significant shortages of suitable cargo space and associated increases in rates charged by passenger airlines or ocean carriers for cargo space.

Terrorist attacks and other acts of violence or war may affect any market on which our shares trade, the markets in which we operate, our operations and our profitability.

Terrorist acts or acts of war or armed conflict could negatively affect our operations in a number of ways. Primarily, any of these acts could result in increased volatility in or damage to the U.S. and worldwide financial markets and economy and could lead to increased regulatory requirements with respect to the security and safety of freight shipments and transportation. They could also result in a continuation of the current economic uncertainty in the United States and abroad. Acts of terrorism or armed conflict, and the uncertainty caused by such conflicts, could cause an overall reduction in worldwide sales of goods and corresponding shipments of goods. This would have a corresponding negative effect on our operations. Also, terrorist activities similar to the type experienced on September 11, 2001 could result in another halt of trading of securities, which could also have an adverse affect on the trading price of our shares and overall market capitalization.

We intend to continue expansion of our new food industry segment.

- 7 -

will be sufficient to support the funding needs for the expansion of this new business segment;

will be sufficient for us to purchase the higher levels of inventory to be held for sale at a future date; or

will be sufficient to prepay the level of slotting fees required for the positioning of retail shelf space for expansion within some of the major supermarket chains.

We expect that the funding needed to expand this segment would require that we raise capital through the sale of the Company’s stock and that the sale of stock would cause dilution to our shareholders. There can be no assurance that the expansion of this segment will be successful, that continued expansion would not require additional capital, and that any such additional capital would be available to us on acceptable terms if at all.

We intend to continue expansion through acquisition.

We have grown through the acquisitions of other freight forwarders and intend to continue our program of business expansion through acquisitions. There can be no assurance that our:

financial condition will be sufficient to support the funding needs of an expansion program;

that acquisitions will be successfully consummated or will enhance profitability; or

that any expansion opportunities will be available upon reasonable terms.

We expect future acquisitions to encounter risks similar to the risks that past acquisitions have had such as:

difficulty in assimilating the operations and personnel of the acquired businesses;

potential disruption of our ongoing business;

the inability of management to realize the projected operational and financial benefits from the acquisition or to maximize our financial and strategic position through the successful incorporation of acquired personnel and clients;

the maintenance of uniform standards, controls, procedures and policies; and

the impairment of relationships with employees and clients as a result of any integration of new management personnel.

We expect that any future acquisitions could provide for consideration to be paid in cash, stock or a combination of cash and stock. There can be no assurance that any of these acquisitions will be accomplished. If an entity we acquire is not efficiently or completely integrated with us, then our business, financial condition and operating results could be materially adversely affected.

Events affecting the volume of international trade and international operations could adversely affect our international operations.

Our international operations are directly related to and dependent on the volume of international trade, particularly trade between the United States and foreign nations. This trade, as well as our international operations, is influenced by many factors, including:

economic and political conditions in the United States and abroad;

major work stoppages;

exchange controls, currency conversion and fluctuations;

war, other armed conflicts and terrorism; and

United States and foreign laws relating to tariffs, trade restrictions, foreign investment and taxation.

Trade-related events beyond our control, such as a failure of various nations to reach or adopt international trade agreements or an increase in bilateral or multilateral trade restrictions, could have a material adverse effect on our international operations. Our operations also depend on the availability of independent carriers that provide cargo space for international operations.

- 8 -

We are dependent upon key officers.

Our founder, James N. Jannello, continues to serve as Executive Vice President and Chief Executive Officer, and William J. Lally, who replaced the Company’s former President in May 2009, continues to serve as President and Chief Operating Officer. We believe that our success is highly dependent on the continuing efforts of Mr. Jannello and the other executive officers and key employees, as well as our ability to attract and retain other skilled managers and personnel. None of our officers or key employees is subject to employment contracts. The loss of the services of any of our key personnel could have a material adverse effect on us.

Economic and other conditions in the markets in which we operate can affect demand for services and results of operations.

Our future operating results are dependent upon the economic environments of the markets in which we operate. Demand for our services could be adversely affected by economic conditions in the industries of our customers. Many of our principal customers are in the fashion, household products, industrial products, computer and electronics industries. Adverse conditions in any one of these industries or loss of the major customers in such industries could have a material adverse impact upon us. We expect the demand for our services (and consequently our results of operations) to continue to be sensitive to domestic and, increasingly, global economic conditions and other factors beyond our control.

In addition, the transport of freight, both domestically and internationally, is highly competitive and price sensitive. Changes in the volume of freight transported, shippers preferences as to the timing of deliveries as a means to control shipping costs, economic and political conditions, both in the United States and abroad, work stoppages, United States and foreign laws relating to tariffs, trade restrictions, foreign investments and taxation may all have significant impact on our overall business, growth and profitability.

Janel’s Officers and Directors control the Company.

The officers and directors of the Company control the vote of approximately 41.6% of the outstanding shares of Common Stock. The Company’s stock option plan provides 1,600,000 shares of Common Stock regarding which options may be granted to key employees of the Company. As a result, the officers and directors of the Company control the election of the Company’s directors and will have the ability to control the affairs of the Company. Furthermore, they will, by virtue of their control of a large majority of the voting shares, have controlling influence over, among other things, the ability to amend the Company’s Certificate of Incorporation and By-Laws or effect or preclude fundamental corporate transactions involving the Company, including the acceptance or rejection of any proposals relating to a merger of the Company or an acquisition of the Company by another entity.

Risk Factors Relating to our Articles of Incorporation and our Stock

The liability of our directors is limited.

Our Articles of Incorporation limit the liability of directors to the maximum extent permitted by Nevada law.

It is unlikely that we will issue dividends on our Common Stock in the foreseeable future.

We have never declared or paid cash dividends on our Common Stock and do not intend to pay dividends in the foreseeable future. The payment of dividends in the future will be at the discretion of our board of directors.

Our stock price is subject to volatility.

Our Common Stock trades on the OTC Bulletin Board under the symbol “JLWT”. The market price of our Common Stock has been subject to significant fluctuations. Such fluctuations, as well as economic conditions generally, may adversely affect the market price of our securities.

- 9 -

We have no assurance of a continued public trading market.

Janel’s Common Stock is quoted in the over-the-counter market on the OTC Bulletin Board and is subject to the low-priced security or so-called “penny stock” rules that impose additional sales practice requirements on broker-dealers who sell such securities. For any transaction involving a penny stock, the rules require, among other things, the delivery, prior to the transaction, of a disclosure schedule required by the SEC relating to the penny stock market. The broker-dealer also must disclose the commissions payable to both the broker-dealer and the registered representative and current quotations for the securities. Finally, monthly statements must be sent disclosing recent price information for the penny stocks held in the customer’s account. As a result, characterization as a “penny stock” can adversely affect the market liquidity for the securities.

ITEM 2. PROPERTIES

As of September 30, 2011, Janel leased office and warehouse space in 5 cities located in the United States. The executive offices in Jamaica, New York consist of approximately 5,000 square feet of office space adjoined by 9,000 square feet of warehouse space, all subject to a lease with a term ending January 31, 2015, with an annual base rent of $160,409. Its administrative office in Lynbrook, New York is approximately 1,459 square feet and is occupied under a lease which expires February 28, 2013, with an annual rent of $46,083 through February 28, 2012, which increases at the rate of 3% per year of the lease.

Janel’s Georgia location occupies approximately 3,000 square feet of office and warehouse space, under a lease which expires on August 31, 2012 with an annual rent of $32,304. Janel’s Los Angeles office occupies approximately 3,000 square feet of office under a lease which expires on June 30, 2016, with an annual rent of $83,100 through May 31, 2012, and increases every eighteen (18) months based upon the CPI with a limit of up to 4.5% per year. Janel’s Hillside New Jersey location operates in two separate locations. The first location occupies approximately 7,000 square feet of office space adjoined by 200,000 square feet of warehouse space with a term ending August 31, 2021, with an annual base rent of $725,004 through August 31, 2016 and the second location occupies approximately 1,000 square feet of office space adjoined by 47,000 square feet of warehouse space with a term ending May 31, 2016, with an annual base rent of $174,233 through May 31, 2012. Certain of the leases also provide for annual increases based upon increases in taxes or service charges.

ITEM 3. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

On August 22, 2011, Janel’s former chief financial officer filed a civil suit in the United States District Court for the Eastern District of New York (Case No. CV-114041), against defendants Janel World Trade, Ltd., James N. Jannello, the Chief Executive Officer of the Company, and Stephen Cesarski, the former president of the Company. The complaint alleges among other things, discrimination and harassment. At fiscal year end, the Company established a $250,000 reserve as a contingency for this lawsuit, and subsequent to year end commenced mediation of the claims.

Janel is occasionally subject to claims and lawsuits which typically arise in the normal course of business. While the outcome of these claims cannot be predicted with certainty, management does not believe that the outcome of any of these legal matters will have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial position or results of operations.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Forward-Looking Statements

The statements contained in all parts of this document that are not historical facts are, or may be deemed to be, “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. When used in this document, the words “anticipate,” “estimate,” “expect,” “may,” “plans,” “project,” and similar expressions are intended to be among the statements that identify forward-looking statements. Janel’s results may differ significantly from the results discussed in the forward-looking statements. Such statements involve risks and uncertainties, including, but not limited to, those relating to costs, delays and difficulties related to the Company’s dependence on its ability to attract and retain skilled managers and other personnel; the intense competition within the freight industry; the uncertainty of the Company’s ability to manage and continue its growth and implement its business strategy; the Company’s dependence on the availability of cargo space to serve its customers; effects of regulation; its vulnerability to general economic conditions and dependence on its principal customers; accuracy of accounting and other estimates; risk of international operations; risks relating to acquisitions; the Company’s future financial and operating results, cash needs and demand for its services; and the Company’s ability to maintain and comply with permits and licenses; as well as other risk factors described in this Annual Report. Should one or more of these risks or uncertainties materialize, or should underlying assumptions prove incorrect, actual outcomes may vary materially from those projected.

Introduction

The following discussion and analysis addresses the results of operations for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2011, as compared to the results of operations for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2010 and the fiscal year ended September 30, 2010, as compared to the results of operations for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2009. The discussion and analysis then addresses the liquidity and financial condition of the Company, and other matters.

- 12 -

Results of Operations

Janel operates its business as two reportable segments. The first segment is comprised of full-service cargo transportation logistics management, including freight forwarding via air, ocean and land-based carriers, customs brokerage services, warehousing and distribution services, and other value-added logistics services. The second segment is comprised of vertical sales primarily in the food industry and includes; supplier selection, manufacturing, transportation, import, distribution, marketing and sales within the food industry; the purchase of products from suppliers that are held in inventory for the sale of the products at a future date; and, when selling to supermarket chains, the Company is required to prepay fees (commonly referred to as slotting fees) for positioning of retail store shelf space. During the 2011 fiscal year, we discontinued our computer software sales, support and maintenance business segment.

Years ended September 30, 2011 and 2010

Revenue. Total revenue for fiscal 2011 was $98,451,107, as compared to $88,428,775 for the same period of fiscal 2010, an increase of $10,022,332 or 11.3%. For fiscal 2011, revenue from the new food industry segment which began in April 2011 was $54,490. When compared to the prior year, the Company’s transportation logistics segment revenue increased by 11.3% to $98,396,617 for fiscal 2011 from $88,428,775 for fiscal 2010. This increase is mainly the result of the relative strengthening of the U.S. economy year-over-year, the consequent increase in ocean fright and airfreight shipping activity by existing customers between the two periods, and by increased revenue in the amount of $4,273,139 from the FIL asset purchase acquisition when compared to the prior year which only included the 2008 FIL acquisition. Net revenue (revenue minus forwarding expenses) for the transportation and logistics segment in fiscal 2011 was $9,542,362, an increase of $685,840 (7.7%) as compared to net revenue of $8,856,522 for fiscal 2010.

Forwarding Expense. Forwarding expense is primarily comprised of the fees paid by Janel directly to cargo carriers to handle and transport its actual freight shipments on behalf of its customers between initial and final terminal points. Forwarding expense also includes any duties, trucking and warehousing charges related to the shipments. For fiscal 2011, forwarding expense increased by $9,336,492, or 11.7%, to $88,908,745 as compared to $79,572,253 for fiscal 2010, primarily because of the higher 2011 revenue. Included in this increase is an increase in forwarding expenses in the amount of $2,557,802 from the 2010 FIL asset purchase acquisition when compared to the prior year which only included the 2008 FIL acquisition. Forwarding expense as a percentage of revenue increased to 90.3% for fiscal 2011, from 90.0% for fiscal 2010, a 0.3 percentage point increase. This percentage increase is principally the result of a greater amount of revenue generated from our two largest customers where the forwarding expenses as a percentage of revenue are historically higher than the forwarding expenses as a percentage of revenue from other customers.

Selling, General and Administrative Expense. For fiscal 2011 and 2010, selling, general and administrative expenses were $9,997,409 (10.2% of revenue), and $7,501,256 (8.5% of revenue), respectively. This represents a year-over-year increase of $2,496,153, or 33.3%. The increases in amount and as a percentage of revenue are primarily the result of (i) increased selling, general and administrative expenses associated with the FIL asset purchase acquisition of approximately $2,131,787 (including $18,411 for one-time legal and professional transaction related costs) when compared to the prior year which only included the 2008 FIL acquisition, (ii) the selling, general and administrative expenses associated with the start up of the food industry segment of approximately $366,591, and (iii) the elimination in fiscal 2011 of some of the payroll cutbacks made in the prior year resulting from the Company’s austerity program, during which personnel positions were eliminated and workweek reductions were implemented.

Depreciation and Amortization . For fiscal 2011 and 2010, depreciation and amortization expenses were $338,135 and $213,579, respectively. This represents a year over year increase of $124,556, or 58.3%. The increases in amount and as a percentage of revenue are primarily a result of new amortization expenses associated with the FIL asset purchase acquisition totaling $122,000. Refer to Note 6 to the Consolidated Financial Statements.

Interest Expense . For fiscal 2011 and 2010, interest expense was $137,015 and $101,415, respectively. This $35,600 increase is primarily the result of imputed interest amortization expense of $53,333 associated with the FIL asset purchase acquisition (refer to Note 2(C) to the Consolidated Financial Statements). Offsetting this increase are lower interest costs primarily the result of lower borrowings during fiscal 2011 versus fiscal 2010.

- 13 -

(Loss) Income Before Taxes and Discontinued Operations. For the reasons stated above, the Company incurred a loss before taxes and discontinued operations of ($926,108) for fiscal 2011, as compared to income before taxes and discontinued operations of $1,045,231 for fiscal 2010.

Income Taxes. The company recorded a net income tax benefit of ($348,000) for fiscal 2011 compared to an income tax provision of $446,954 for fiscal 2010. Both fiscal periods reflect the U.S. federal statutory rate and applicable state income taxes.

Net (Loss) Income. For fiscal 2011, there was a net loss of ($657,697) compared to net income of $382,895 for fiscal 2010. Net loss available to common shareholders for fiscal 2011 was ($672,697), or ($0.03) per diluted share, as compared to net income available to common shareholders of $382,895, or $0.02 per diluted share, for fiscal 2010.

Years ended September 30, 2010 and 2009

Revenue. Total revenue for fiscal 2010 was $88,428,775, as compared to $71,663,175 for fiscal 2009, an increase of $16,765,600 or 23.4%. This increase is mainly the result of the relative strengthening of the U.S. economy year-over-year, and the consequent increase in ocean fright and airfreight shipping activity by existing customers between the two periods. Net revenue (revenue minus forwarding expenses) in fiscal 2010 was $8,856,522, an increase of $612,090 (7.4%) as compared to net revenue of $8,244,432 in fiscal 2009.

Forwarding Expense. Forwarding expense is primarily comprised of the fees paid by Janel directly to cargo carriers to handle and transport its actual freight shipments on behalf of its customers between initial and final terminal points. Forwarding expense also includes any duties and/or trucking charges related to the shipments. For fiscal year 2010, forwarding expense increased by $16,153,510, or 25.5%, to $79,572,253 as compared to $63,418,743 for fiscal year 2009. Forwarding expense as a percentage of revenue increased to 90.0% for fiscal year 2010, from 88.5% for fiscal year 2009, a 1.5 percentage point increase. This increase is principally the result of ocean freight shipments accounting for a higher proportion of the overall shipping activity (versus airfreight) in the fiscal year 2010, as compared to the fiscal year 2009.

Selling, General and Administrative Expense. For the fiscal years ended September 30, 2010 and 2009, selling, general and administrative expenses were $7,501,256 (8.5% of revenue), and $7,716,237 (10.8% of revenue), respectively. This represents a year-over-year decrease of $214,981, or 2.8%. The year-over-year absolute dollar decrease in these expenses primarily resulted from cutbacks made as part of the Company’s ongoing austerity program during which personnel positions have been eliminated, workweek reductions were implemented, and all additional overhead expenses have been tightly monitored. Primarily because of the higher revenue base, these expenses as a percentage of revenue decreased by 21.3%, to 8.5% in fiscal year ended 2010 from 10.8% in fiscal year ended 2009.

Depreciation and Amortization . For fiscal 2010 and 2009, depreciation and amortization expenses were $213,579 and $301,771, respectively. This represents a year over year decrease of $88,192, or 29.2%. The decreases in amount and as a percentage of revenue are primarily a result of changes in amortization associated with discontinued operations.

Interest Expense . For fiscal 2010 and 2009, interest expense was $101,415 and $224,706, respectively. This $123,291 decrease is primarily the result of lower borrowings during fiscal 2010 versus fiscal 2009.

Income (Loss) Before Taxes and Discontinued Operations. Income before taxes and discontinued operations in fiscal year ended 2010 improved by $2,095,172 to $1,045,231, as compared to a loss before taxes and discontinued operations of ($1,049,941) in the fiscal year ended 2009. The prior fiscal year included nonrecurring pretax charges related to the impairment of identifiable intangible assets of $1,066,240 entirely associated with the Company’s acquisition of Order Logistics, Inc. in October 2007.

Income Taxes. The Company recorded an income tax provision of $446,954 for fiscal 2010 compared to a net income tax benefit of ($325,693) for fiscal 2009. Both fiscal periods reflect the U.S. federal statutory rate and applicable state income taxes.

- 14 -

Net Income (Loss). For fiscal 2010, Janel’s net income improved by $1,624,093 to $382,895 from a loss of ($1,241,198) in fiscal 2009. Net income available to common shareholders for fiscal year ended 2010 was $367,849, or $0.02 per diluted share, up $1,624,047 as compared to a net loss available to common shareholders of $(1,256,198), or $(0.07) per diluted share, for the fiscal year ended 2009. Included in the improvement were the nonrecurring charges in 2009 relating to the amortization and impairment of the Order Logistics, Inc. acquisition.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

General. Our ability to satisfy our liquidity requirements, which include satisfying our debt obligations and funding working capital, day-to-day operating expenses and capital expenditures depends upon our future performance, which is subject to general economic conditions, competition and other factors, some of which are beyond our control. If we achieve significant near-term revenue growth, we may experience a need for increased working capital financing as a result of the difference between our collection cycles and the timing of our payments to vendors. In addition, the new food industry segment which began during April 2011 will require working capital for the purchase of products from suppliers to be held in inventory for the sale of the products at a future date, as well as, the prepayment of fees (commonly referred to as slotting fees) for positioning of retail store shelf space. Within our transportation logistics segment, generally we do not have a need for significant capital expenditure as we are a non-asset based freight forwarder.

Janel’s cash flow performance for the 2011 fiscal year is not necessarily indicative of future cash flow performance.

As of September 30, 2011, and compared with the prior fiscal year, the Company’s cash and cash equivalents declined by $850,083, or 62.6%, to $504,829 from $1,354,912, respectively. During the fiscal year ended September 30, 2011, Janel’s net working capital (current assets minus current liabilities) decreased by $1,117,547, or 60.1%, from $1,832,263 at September 30, 2010, to $714,716 at September 30, 2011. This decrease is primarily due to the net loss ($657,697) for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2011, the $249,618 current portion of the related party note payable associated with the earn-out under the FIL Purchase Agreement (refer to Note 2(C) to the Company’s Notes to the audited Consolidated Financial Statements contained in this Annual Report), and the $86,360 current portion of the $400,000 term loan which was entered into on April 5, 2011 with Community National Bank – for a further description see Community National Bank Term Loan, below.

Cash flows from operating activities. Net cash used in operating activities was ($138,881) for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2011, compared to $725,221 for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2010. The change was principally driven by an increase in collections of outstanding accounts receivable, which were offset by an increase in payments of outstanding accounts payable, the net loss for fiscal 2011, the purchase of inventory for the new food industry segment, an increase in prepaid expenses, a change in the deferred tax asset and the inclusion of a tax refund receivable in the prior year.

Cash flows from investing activities . Net cash used for investing activities, primarily capital expenditures for property and equipment, were $452,691 and $17,030 for the fiscal years ended September 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively. This increase is primarily the result of the construction of a 15,000 square foot walk/drive-in freezer in our New Jersey warehouse at a cost of approximately $400,000.

Cash flows from financing activities . Net cash used for financing activities was ($178,922) for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2011, compared to ($621,047) for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2010. The cash used in financing activities for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2011, consisted primarily of the early repayment on October 4, 2010 of the $435,000 non-interest bearing note payable due under the July 2008 FIL asset purchase acquisition (refer to Note 2(B) to the Company’s Notes to the audited Consolidated Financial Statements contained in this Annual Report), repayments of long-term debt, and the purchase of treasury stock; which were partially offset by new borrowings of $400,000 under a term-loan entered into on April 5, 2011 with Community National Bank (for a further description see Community National Bank Term Loan, below), and unsecured borrowings of $100,000 from a non-related third party. The cash used in financing activities for fiscal year ended 2010, consisted primarily of repayments under the term and line note agreements with the Company’s previous secured commercial lender.

Community National Bank Borrowing Facility. On August 3, 2010, the Company’s Janel Group of New York, Inc. (“Janel New York”) subsidiary entered into a one year $3.5 million revolving line of credit agreement with Community National Bank (“CNB”). The new credit facility (the “CNB Facility”) replaces Janel New York’s previous term loan agreement with JPMorgan Chase Bank. The interest rate of the CNB Facility was the prime rate plus 1%, with a minimum rate of 5%. Under the CNB Facility, Janel New York may borrow up to $3.5 million limited to 80% of the Company’s aggregate outstanding eligible accounts receivable. On August 3, 2010, $951,190 of the CNB Facility was used to pay off the outstanding balances under the term loan with JPMorgan Chase Bank. While the CNB Facility was initially for a one year term expiring on July 31, 2011, on August 1, 2011 the CNB Facility was renewed for an additional one year term. Obligations under the CNB Facility are secured by all of the assets of the Company, are guaranteed by the Company, and were originally guaranteed by James N. Jannello, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer. Effective November 1, 2011, the terms of the CNB Facility were amended to release James N. Jannello from his personal guarantee of the Company’s obligations to CNB, to increase the minimum interest rate from 5.0% per annum to 7.0% per annum, and an unused line fee equal to one-half of one percent per annum was instituted. All other terms of the CNB Facility remained unchanged. As of September 30, 2011, there were outstanding borrowings of $951,335 under the CNB Facility (which represented 49.6% of the amount available thereunder) out of a total amount available for borrowing under the CNB Facility of approximately $1,918,006.

Community National Bank Term Loan . On April 5, 2011 Janel New York entered into a term loan in the amount of $400,000 with CNB (“CNB Term Loan”). The interest rate of the CNB Term Loan is 6%. The CNB Term Loan is for a five year term, expiring April 5, 2016, with monthly installment payments of principal and interest totaling $7,735. Obligations under the CNB Term Loan are secured by all of the assets of the Company, and are guaranteed by the Company and until November 2, 2011 (see above) by James N. Jannello, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer. The borrowings under the CNB Term Loan were used to construct a 15,000 square foot walk/drive-in freezer in our New Jersey warehouse for our traditional freight forwarding and logistics business segment.

Working Capital Requirements. The Company’s cash needs are currently met by the CNB Facility and cash on hand. As of September 30, 2011, the Company had $966,671 available under its $3.5 million CNB Facility and $504,829 in cash from operations and cash on hand. We believe that our current financial resources will be sufficient to finance our operations and obligations (current and long-term liabilities) for the long and short terms. However, our actual working capital needs for the long and short terms will depend upon numerous factors, including our operating results, the cost associated with growing the Company either internally or through acquisition, the amount of inventory levels required within the new food industry segment to have a seamless supply chain necessary to re-stock the product being sold to new customers, the level of cost associated with the prepayment of fees (commonly referred to as slotting fees) for positioning of retail store shelf space within the new food industry segment, competition, and the availability of a revolving credit facility, none of which can be predicted with certainty.

Current Outlook

Janel’s results of operations are affected by the general economic cycle, particularly as it influences global trade levels and specifically the import and export activities of Janel’s various current and prospective customers. Historically, the Company’s quarterly results of operations have been subject to seasonal trends which have been the result of, or influenced by, numerous factors including climate, national holidays, consumer demand, economic conditions, the growth and diversification of its international network and service offerings, and other similar and subtle forces. The Company cannot accurately forecast many of these factors nor can the Company estimate accurately the relative influence of any particular factor and, as a result, there can be no assurance that historical patterns, if any, will continue in future periods.

Janel is progressing with the implementation of its business plan and strategy to grow its revenue and profitability for fiscal 2012 and beyond through other avenues. The Company’s strategy for growth includes plans to: open, as warranted, additional branch offices domestically and/or outside the continental United States; introduce additional revenue streams for its existing headquarters and branch locations; accelerate the revenue growth within the new food industry segment; proceed with negotiations and due diligence with privately held transportation-related firms which may ultimately lead to their acquisition by the Company; expand its existing sales force by hiring additional commission-only sales representatives with established customer bases; increase its focus on growing revenue related to export activities; evaluate direct entry into the trucking and warehouse distribution business as a complement to the services already provided to existing customers; and continue its focus on containing current and prospective overhead and operating expenses, particularly with regard to the efficient integration of any additional offices or acquisitions.

- 16 -

Certain elements of the Company’s growth strategy, principally proposals for acquisition and accelerating the revenue growth within the new food industry segment, are contingent upon the availability of adequate financing on terms acceptable to the Company. The Company is continuing in its efforts to secure long-term financing, but has to date been unable to complete any such long-term financing transactions at terms it deems acceptable, and cannot presently anticipate when or if financing on acceptable terms will become available. Therefore, the implementation of significant aspects of the Company’s strategic growth plan may be deferred beyond the originally anticipated timing.

Contractual Obligations and Commitments

Contractual Obligations and Commitments. The following table presents, as of September 30, 2011, our significant fixed and determinable contractual obligations to third parties by payment date. Further discussion of the nature of each obligation is included in Notes 10 and 15 to the consolidated financial statements.

Operating leases represent future minimum lease payments under non-cancelable operating leases (primarily the rental of premises) at September 30, 2011. In accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States, our operating leases are not recorded in our balance sheet.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations discusses the Company’s consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The preparation of these financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions about future events that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Since future events and their effects cannot be determined with absolute certainty, the determination of estimates requires the exercise of judgment. Actual results could differ from those estimates, and such difference may be material to the financial statements. The most significant accounting estimates inherent in the preparation of our financial statements include estimates as to the appropriate carrying value of certain assets and liabilities which are not readily apparent from other sources, primarily allowance for doubtful accounts, accruals for transportation and other direct costs, accruals for cargo insurance, and deferred income taxes. Management bases its estimates on historical experience and on various assumptions which are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. We reevaluate these significant factors as facts and circumstances change. Historically, actual results have not differed significantly from our estimates. These accounting policies are more fully described in Note 1 of the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements.

Management believes that the nature of the Company’s business is such that there are few, if any, complex challenges in accounting for operations. Revenue recognition is considered the critical accounting policy due to the complexity of arranging and managing global logistics and supply-chain management transactions.

Revenue Recognition

A. Full-Service Cargo Transportation Logistics Management

Revenues are derived from airfreight, ocean freight and custom brokerage services. The Company is a non-asset-based carrier and accordingly does not own transportation assets. The Company generates the major portion of its air and ocean freight revenues by purchasing transportation services from direct carriers (airlines, steam ship lines, etc.) and reselling those services to its customers. By consolidating shipments from multiple customers and availing itself of its buying power, the Company is able to negotiate favorable rates from the direct carriers, while offering to its customers lower rates than the customers could obtain themselves.

Airfreight revenues include the charges for carrying the shipments when the Company acts as a freight consolidator. Ocean freight revenues include the charges for carrying the shipments when the Company acts as a Non-Vessel Operating Common Carrier (NVOCC). In each case, the Company is acting as an indirect carrier. When acting as an indirect carrier, the Company will issue a House Airway Bill (HAWB) or a House Ocean Bill of Lading (HOBL) to customers as the contract of carriage. In turn, when the freight is physically tendered to a direct carrier, the Company receives a contract of carriage known as a Master Airway Bill for airfreight shipments and a Master Ocean Bill of Lading for ocean shipments. At this point the risk of loss passes to the carrier, however, in order to claim for any such loss, the customer is first obligated to pay the freight charges.

Based upon the terms in the contract of carriage, revenues related to shipments where the Company issues a HAWB or a HOBL are recognized at the time the freight is tendered to the direct carrier. Costs related to the shipments are recognized at the same time.

Revenues realized when the Company acts as an agent for the shipper and does not issue a HAWB or a HOBL include only the commission and fees earned for the services performed. These revenues are recognized upon completion of the services.

Customs brokerage and other services involves provide multiple services at destination including clearing shipments through customs by preparing required documentation, calculating and providing for payment of duties and other charges on behalf of the customers, arranging for any required inspections, and arranging for final delivery. These revenues are recognized upon completion of the services.

The movement of freight may require multiple services. In most instances the Company may perform multiple services including destination break bulk and value added services such as local transportation, distribution services and logistics management. Each of these services has separate fee that is recognized as revenue upon completion of the service.

Customers will frequently request an all-inclusive rate for a set of services that is known in the industry as “door-to-door services.” In these cases, the customer is billed a single rate for all services from pickup at origin to delivery. The allocation of revenue and expense among the components of services when provided under an all inclusive rate are done in an objective manner on a fair value basis in accordance with Emerging Issues Task Force (EITF) 00-21, “Revenue Arrangements with Multiple Deliverables.”

B. Food Sales

The Company recognizes revenue when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, delivery of products has occurred, the sales price is fixed or determinable, and collectability is reasonably assured. This generally means that we recognize revenue when title to our products is transferred to our customers. Title usually transfers upon shipment to or receipt at our customer’s locations, as determined by the specific sales terms of each transaction.

When selling to supermarket chains, the Company is required to prepay fees (commonly referred to as slotting fees) for positioning of retail store shelf space. These fees are charged as a reduction to revenue when paid.

Our customers can earn certain incentives, which are included as deductions from revenue in the consolidated statements of operations. To date, these incentives include, but are not limited to, cash discounts for early payment of our invoices.

- 18 -

Estimates

While judgments and estimates are a necessary component of any system of accounting, the Company’s use of estimates is limited primarily to the following areas that in the aggregate are not a major component of the Company’s consolidated statements of income:

accounts receivable valuation;

the useful lives of long-term assets;

the accrual of costs related to ancillary services the Company provides; and

accrual of tax expense on an interim basis.

Management believes that the methods utilized in all of these areas are non-aggressive in approach and consistent in application. Management believes that there are limited, if any, alternative accounting principles or methods which could be applied to the Company’s transactions. While the use of estimates means that actual future results may be different from those contemplated by the estimates, the Company believes that alternative principles and methods used for making such estimates would not produce materially different results than those reported.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

From time to time, new accounting pronouncements are issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board or other standard setting bodies that may have an impact on the Company’s accounting and reporting. The Company believes that such recently issued accounting pronouncements and other authoritative guidance for which the effective date is in the future either will not have an impact on its accounting or reporting or that such impact will not be material to its financial position, results of operations, and cash flows when implemented.

ITEM 9A. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

We maintain a system of disclosure controls and procedures that is designed to provide reasonable assurance that information, which is required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (“Exchange Act”), is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the rules and forms of the Securities and Exchange Commission, and is accumulated and communicated to management in a timely manner. Our Chief Executive Officer, Chief Operating Officer and Chief Financial Officer have evaluated this system of disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this annual report, and have concluded that the system is effective.

Management’s Annual Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting

Our management, including our Chief Executive Officer, Chief Operating Officer and Chief Financial Officer, is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting, as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act. Our internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of our financial statements for external reporting purposes in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP). Internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that: (i) pertain to the maintenance of records that in reasonable detail accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the Company; (ii) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with US GAAP, and that the Company’s receipts and expenditures are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the Company; and (iii) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the Company’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements. 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 of compliance with policies or procedures may deteriorate.

Our Chief Executive Officer, Chief Operating Officer and Chief Financial Officer conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting based on the framework in Internal Control — Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission. Based on this evaluation, management concluded that the Company’s internal control over financial reporting was effective as of September 30, 2011.

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

There have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the fourth quarter of fiscal 2011that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Directors hold office until the next annual meeting of shareholders and thereafter until their successors have been duly elected and qualified. The executive officers are elected by the Board of Directors on an annual basis and serve under the direction of the board. Executive officers devote all of their business time to the Company’s affairs.

Janel’s Board of Directors does not yet include any “independent” directors, and the Company does not have any standing Audit, Compensation or Nominating Committees.

Board of Directors

Board of Directors . During the fiscal year ended September 30, 2011, the Board of Directors met one time. No incumbent director attended fewer than 75% of the total number of meetings of the Board of Directors of the Company held during the year.

Our Board of Directors has not established any committees. There is no Audit Committee, Compensation Committee, or Nominating Committee, or any committee performing similar functions, and no charters have been adopted with respect to these functions. The functions which would have been assigned to those committees are undertaken by the entire board as a whole.

Audit Function . In its audit function, the Board oversees the Company’s accounting, financial reporting and internal control functions and the audit of the Company’s financial statements. The audit responsibilities include, among others, direct responsibility for hiring, firing, overseeing the work of and determining the compensation for the Company’s independent auditors. The Board does not include an “audit committee financial expert” (as defined in applicable Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) rules), because the Board believes that the benefits provided by the addition to the Board of an individual who meets the SEC criteria at this time do not justify the cost of retaining such an individual.

Nominating Function. The Company’s full Board of Directors acts as a nominating committee for the annual selection of its nominees for election as directors. The Board of Directors held one meeting during the past fiscal year in order to make nominations for directors. The Board believes that the interests of the Company’s stockholders are served by relegating the nominations process to the full Board. While the Board of Directors will consider nominees recommended by stockholders, it has not actively solicited recommendations from the Company’s stockholders for nominees, nor established any procedures for this purpose. In considering prospective nominees, the Board of Directors will consider the prospect’s relevant financial and business experience, familiarity with and participation in the Company’s industry and market area, the integrity and dedication of the prospect and other factors the Board deems relevant. The Board of Directors will apply the same criteria to nominees recommended by stockholders as those recommended by the full Board.

- 22 -

Compensation Function . The Company’s full Board of Directors acts as a compensation committee for Company. The Board believes that, due to the size of the Company and its management team, the interests of the Company’s stockholders are served by relegating the compensation process to the full Board.

The primary objective of our compensation and benefits program is to attract, motivate and retain our quality executive talent, and support our business goals within the limits arising out of the Company’s revenue and profitability. Our executive compensation structure is comprised of limited a small group of only six executives, and the amount of their compensation is principally based on the available funds and the achievement of our goals for growth and profitability.

Our compensation approach is necessarily tied to our stage of development as a company. Historically, our Company is one of the smaller freight logistics businesses whose securities are traded in the public market, with the result that our compensation program is limited to cash compensation depending upon the funds available, and is lower than the level of compensation of the public companies in our business group. Our Board of Directors reviews and approves executive compensation, bonus, and benefits policies on a case-by-case basis, often based on the recommendation of our Chief Executive Officer’s subjective assessment of the funding reasonably available for executive compensation.

Director Compensation

Our directors are reimbursed for their reasonable expenses as members of the Board of Directors, but they do not receive any compensation for serving as such.

Code of Ethics

Due to its small size, the Company has not yet adopted a code of ethics.

Communications with the Board

Any shareholder desiring to contact the Board, or any specific director(s), may send written communications to: Board of Directors (Attention: (Name(s) of director(s), as applicable)), c/o the Company’s Secretary, 150-14 132 nd Avenue, Jamaica, New York 11434. Any proper communication so received will be processed by the Secretary. If it is unclear from the communication received whether it was intended or appropriate for the Board, the Secretary will (subject to any applicable regulatory requirements) use his judgment to determine whether such communication should be conveyed to the Board or, as appropriate, to the member(s) of the Board named in the communication.

Leadership Structure and Risk Oversight

While the Board believes that there are various structures which can provide successful leadership to the Company, the Company’s executive functions are shared by the Company’s Chief executive Officer and President/Chief Operating Officer. Both individuals serve on the Company’s Board of Directors and they, together with the other directors bring experience, oversight and expertise to the management of the Company. The Board believes that, due to the small size of the Company, this leadership structure best serves the Company and its stockholders.

Management is responsible for the day-to-day management of risks the Company faces, while the Board, as a whole has responsibility for the oversight of risk management. In its risk oversight role, the Board has the responsibility to satisfy itself that the risk management processes designed and implemented by management are adequate and functioning as designed. To do this, management discusses with the Board members strategy and the risks facing the Company.

- 23 -

Compliance with Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act

Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act, as amended, requires that the Company’s directors and executive officers and each person who owns more than 10% of the Company’s Common Stock, file with the Securities and Exchange Commission in a timely manner an initial report of beneficial ownership and subsequent reports of changes in beneficial ownership of the Shares. During the month of October 2010, an initial report of beneficial ownership was filed for the first time by our directors and executive officers (James N. Jannello, William J. Lally, Nicholas V. Ferrara, Noel J. Jannello, Vincent Iacopella, Ruth Werra and Philip J. Dubato) and by Stephen P. Cesarski an owner of more than 10% of the Company’s Shares, Mr. Cesarski filed one report for changes in beneficial ownership reporting two sales, and and Mr. Ferrara filed one report for changes in beneficial ownership reporting one purchase. In January 2012, Mr. Cesarski filed one report reflecting 19 sales. To the Company’s knowledge, all reports are now up to date although they were not filed on a timely basis.

Audit Committee Report

The Board of Directors in its audit function has reviewed and discussed with management the annual audited financial statements of the Company and its subsidiaries.

The Board of Directors in its audit function has discussed with Paritz & Company, P.A., the independent auditors for the Company for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2011, the matters required to be discussed by Statement on Auditing Standards 61, as amended, as adopted by the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board in Rule 3200T. The Board has received the written disclosures and the letter from the independent auditors required by Rule 3526, Communication with Audit Committees Concerning Independence, as adopted by the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board and has discussed with the independent auditors the independent auditors’ independence.

Based on the foregoing review and discussions, the Board of Directors approved the inclusion of the audited financial statements in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2011 for filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

Stock Option Plan .

On December 12, 2002, Janel’s Board of Directors and majority of its shareholders approved and adopted the Janel World Trade, Ltd. Stock Option Incentive Plan (the “Option Plan”) providing for options to purchase up to 1,600,000 shares of Common Stock for issuance to valued employees and consultants of the Company as an incentive for superior performance.

To date, 23,750 options have been granted under the Option Plan. The Option Plan is administered by the Board of Directors, which is authorized to grant incentive stock options and non qualified stock options to selected employees and consultants of the Company and to determine the participants, the number of options to be granted and other terms and provisions of each option.

The exercise price of any incentive stock option or nonqualified option granted under the Option Plan may not be less than 100% of the fair market value of the shares of Common Stock of the Company at the time of the grant. In the case of incentive stock options granted to holders of more than 10% of the voting power of the Company, the exercise price may not be less than 110% of the fair market value.

Under the terms of the Option Plan, the aggregate fair market value (determined at the time of grant) of shares issuable to any one recipient upon exercise of incentive stock options exercisable for the first time during any one calendar year may not exceed $100,000. Options granted under the Option Plan may be exercisable in either one, two or three equal annual installments at the discretion of the Board of Directors, but in no event may a stock option be exercisable prior to the expiration of six months from the date of grant, unless the grantee dies or becomes disabled prior thereto. Stock options granted under the Option Plan have a maximum term of 10 years from the date of grant, except that with respect to incentive stock options granted to an employee who, at the time of the grant, is a holder of more than 10% of the voting power of the Company, the stock option shall expire not more than five years from the date of the grant. The option price must be paid in full on the date of exercise and is payable in cash or in shares of Common Stock having a fair market value on the date the option is exercised equal to the option price, as determined by the Board of Directors.

If a grantee’s employment by, or provision of services to, the Company shall be terminated, the Board of Directors may, in its discretion, permit the exercise of stock options for a period not to exceed one year following such termination of employment with respect to incentive stock options and for a period not to extend beyond the expiration date with respect to non qualified options, except that no incentive stock option may be exercised after three months following the grantee’s termination of employment, unless due to death or permanent disability, in which case the option may be exercised for a period of up to one year following such termination.

Janel’s Board of Directors does not yet include any “independent” directors.

On October 4, 2010, the Company acquired the international freight forwarding assets of FIL, a company owned by Nicholas V. Ferrara, pursuant to the terms of the Purchase Agreement between the Company and FIL dated October 4, 2010. Mr. Ferrara became a director of the Company following the closing. The purchase price paid and to be paid under the terms of the Purchase Agreement consists of (i) cash in an amount equal to 70% of the annual actual earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (EBITDA) achieved over the three 12-month periods following the Closing (the “Earn-Out Period”) from revenues generated from the customers included in the purchased assets, and (ii) 1,714,286 restricted shares of the Company’s Common Stock valued at $600,000 based on the closing market price of the stock on October 1, 2010 (the “Share Allocation”), issued pursuant to an exemption from registration set forth in Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933 and Regulation D promulgated thereunder. The Share Allocation is subject to decrease if actual EBITDA from revenues generated from the customers included in the purchased assets during the Earn-Out Period is below $2 million, and will be issued in three installments on October 4, 2011, 2012 and 2013.

Furthermore, in connection with the 2008 purchase by the Company from FIL of FIL’s customs brokerage business, the Company deferred payment of $435,000 of the purchase price until 2011. On October 4, 2010, the Company paid this outstanding amount in full.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED ACCOUNTING FIRM

Board of Directors

Janel World Trade Ltd. and Subsidiaries

Jamaica, New York

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Janel World Trade Ltd. and Subsidiaries as of September 30, 2011 and 2010 and the related consolidated statements of operations, changes in stockholders’ equity and cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended September 30, 2011. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audit included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Janel World Trade Ltd. and Subsidiaries as of September 30, 2011 and 2010 and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended September 30, 2011 in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

JANEL WORLD TRADE LTD. AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1	SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Business description

Janel World Trade Ltd. and Subsidiaries (“the Company” or “Janel”) operates its business as two reportable segments comprised of: A) full-service cargo transportation logistics management, including freight forwarding – via air, ocean and land-based carriers – custom brokerage services, warehousing and distribution services, and other value-added logistics services, and B) food sales.

Basis of consolidation

The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its subsidiaries, all of which are wholly owned. All intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation.

Uses of estimates in the preparation of financial statements

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles 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 net revenue and expenses during each reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Cash and cash equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents consist of cash and highly liquid investments with remaining maturities of less than ninety days at the date of purchase.

The Company maintains cash balances at various financial institutions. Accounts at each institution are insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation up to $250,000. The Company’s accounts at these institutions may, at times, exceed the federally insured limits. The Company has not experienced any losses in such accounts.

Accounts receivable and allowance for doubtful accounts receivable

The Company has a policy of reserving for uncollectible accounts based on its best estimate of the amount of probable credit losses in its existing accounts receivable. The Company extends credit to its customers based on an evaluation of their financial condition and other factors. The Company generally does not require collateral or other security to support accounts receivable. The Company performs ongoing credit evaluations of its customers and maintains an allowance for potential bad debts if required.

The Company determines whether an allowance for doubtful accounts is required by evaluating specific accounts where information indicates the customers may have an inability to meet financial obligations. In these cases, the Company uses assumptions and judgment, based on the best available facts and circumstances, to record a specific allowance for those customers against amounts due to reduce the receivable to the amount expected to be collected. These specific allowances are re-evaluated and adjusted as additional information is received. The amounts calculated are analyzed to determine the total amount of the allowance. The Company may also record a general allowance as necessary.

Direct write-offs are taken in the period when the Company has exhausted its efforts to collect overdue and unpaid receivables or otherwise evaluate other circumstances that indicate that the Company should abandon such efforts.

F-7

Inventories

Inventories, consisting of merchandise purchased for resale, are valued at the lower of cost (determined on the first-in, first-out basis) or market (replacement cost).

Marketable securities

The Company classifies all of its short-term investments as available-for-sale securities. Such short-term investments consist primarily of mutual funds which are stated at market value, with unrealized gains and losses on such securities reflected as other comprehensive income (loss) in stockholders’ equity. Realized gains and losses on short-term investments are included in earnings and are derived using the specific identification method for determining the cost of securities. Therefore, all securities are considered to be available for sale and are classified as current assets.

Property and equipment and depreciation policy

Property and equipment are recorded at cost. Depreciation is provided for in amounts sufficient to amortize the costs of the related assets over their estimated useful lives on the straight-line and accelerated methods for both financial reporting and income tax purposes.

Maintenance, repairs and minor renewals are charged to expense when incurred. Replacements and major renewals are capitalized.

Revenues and revenue recognition

(a) Full service cargo transportation logistics management

Revenues are derived from airfreight, ocean freight and custom brokerage services. The Company is a non-asset based carrier and accordingly, does not own transportation assets. The Company generates the major portion of its air and ocean freight revenues by purchasing transportation services from direct carriers (airlines, steam ship lines, etc.) and reselling those services to its customers. By consolidating shipments from multiple customers and availing itself of its buying power, the Company is able to negotiate favorable rates from the direct carriers, while offering to its customers lower rates than the customers could obtain themselves.

Airfreight revenues include the charges to the Company for carrying the shipments when the Company acts as a freight consolidator. Ocean freight revenues include the charges to the Company for carrying the shipments when the Company acts as a Non-Vessel Operating Common Carrier (NVOCC). In each case, the Company is acting as an indirect carrier. When acting as an indirect carrier, the Company will issue a House Airway Bill (HAWB) or a house Ocean Bill of Lading (HOBL) to customers as the contract of carriage. In turn, when the freight is physically tendered to a direct carrier, the Company receives a contract of carriage known as a Master Airway Bill for airfreight shipments and a Master Ocean Bill of Lading for ocean shipments. At this point the risk of loss passes to the carrier, however, in order to claim for any such loss, the customer is first obligated to pay the freight charges.

F-8

Customs brokerage and other services involves providing multiple services at destination, including clearing shipments through customs by preparing required documentation, calculating and providing for payment of duties and other charges on behalf of the customers, arranging for any required inspections, and arranging for final delivery. These revenues are recognized upon completion of the services.

The movement of freight may require multiple services. In most instances, the Company may perform multiple services including destination breakbulk and value added services such as local transportation, distribution services and logistics management. Each of these services has a separate fee which is recognized as revenue upon completion of the service.

Customers will frequently request an all inclusive rate for a set of services, which is known in the industry as “door-to-door services”. In these cases, the customer is billed a single rate for all services from pickup at origin to delivery. The allocation of revenue and expense among the components of service when provided under an all inclusive rate are done in an objective manner on a fair value basis.

(b) Food sales

The Company recognizes revenue when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, delivery of products has occurred, the sales price is fixed or determinable, and collectability is reasonably assured. This generally means that the Company recognizes revenue when title to its products is transferred to its customers. Title usually transfers upon shipment to, or receipt at, the Company’s customer’s locations, as determined by the specific sales terms of each transaction.

The Company’s customers can earn certain incentives, which are included as deductions from revenue in the consolidated statements of operations. To date, these incentives include, but are not limited to cash discounts for early payment of the Company’s invoices.

(c ) Computer software sales, support and maintenance of discontinued operations

The Company recognizes revenue, including multiple element arrangements, in accordance with current authoritative guidance. Revenue from the sale of the Company’s products and services are recognized when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, delivery has occurred (or services have been rendered), the price is fixed or determinable, and collectability is reasonably assured. Amounts billed in excess of revenue recognized are recorded as deferred revenue in the balance sheet.

Income per common share

Basic net income per common share is calculated by dividing net income available to common shareholders by the weighted average of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted net income per common share is calculated using the weighted average of common shares outstanding adjusted to include the potentially dilutive effect of stock options and warrants.

F-9

Share based compensation

The Company accounts for other based compensation in accordance with ASC 718-10. Under the provisions of this statement the compensation costs relating to share-based payment transactions are to be recognized in the Company’s consolidated financial statements based on their fair values.

Comprehensive income

Comprehensive income encompasses all changes in stockholders’ equity other than those arising from stockholders, and generally consists of net income and unrealized gains and losses on unrestricted available-for-sale marketable equity securities. As of September 30, 2009, accumulated other comprehensive income consists of unrealized gains on unrestricted available-for-sale marketable equity securities.

Income Taxes

The Company uses the asset and liability method of accounting for income taxes in accordance with ASC Topic 740, “Income Taxes.” Under this method, income tax expense is recognized for the amount of: (i) taxes payable or refundable for the current year and (ii) deferred tax consequences of temporary differences resulting from matters that have been recognized in an entity’s financial statements or tax returns. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in the results of operations in the period that includes the enactment date. A valuation allowance is provided to reduce the deferred tax assets reported if based on the weight of the available positive and negative evidence, it is more likely than not some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized.

ASC Topic 740.10.30 clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in an enterprise’s financial statements and prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. ASC Topic 740.10.40 provides guidance on derecognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosure, and transition. We have no material uncertain tax positions for any of the reporting periods presented.

Goodwill, other intangibles and long-lived assets

The Company records as goodwill the excess of purchase price over the fair value of the tangible and identifiable intangible assets acquired in a business combination. Current authoritative guidance requires goodwill to be tested for impairment annually as well as when an event or change in circumstance indicates an impairment may have occurred. Goodwill is tested for impairment by comparing the fair value of the Company’s individual reporting units to their carrying amount to determine if there is a potential goodwill impairment. If the fair value of the reporting unit is less than its carrying value, an impairment loss is recorded to the extent that the implied fair value of the goodwill of the reporting unit is less than its carrying value.

F-10

Long-lived assets, including fixed assets and intangible assets, are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value may not be recoverable. In reviewing for impairment, the carrying value of such assets is compared to the estimated undiscounted future cash flows expected from the use of the assets and their eventual disposition. If such cash flows are not sufficient to support the asset’s recorded value, an impairment charge is recognized to reduce the carrying value of the long-lived asset to its estimated fair value. The determination of future cash flows, as well as the estimated fair value of long-lived assets, involve significant estimates on the part of management. In order to estimate the fair value of a long-lived asset, the Company may engage a third-party to assist with the valuation. If there is a material change in economic conditions or other circumstances influencing the estimate of future cash flows or fair value, the Company could be required to recognize impairment charges in the future. (See Note 2A).

Fair Value Measurements

The Company adopted the provisions of ASC Topic 820, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures”, which defines fair value as used in numerous accounting pronouncements, establishes a framework for measuring fair value and expands disclosure of fair value measurements.

The estimated fair value of certain financial instruments, including cash and cash equivalents, prepaid expenses, and accounts payable and accrued expenses are carried at historical cost basis, which approximates their fair values because of the short-term nature of these instruments.

ASC 820 defines fair value as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. ASC 820 also establishes a fair value hierarchy, which requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. ASC 820 describes three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value:

Level 1 — quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities

Level 2 — quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets or inputs that are observable

Level 3 — inputs that are unobservable (for example cash flow modeling inputs based on assumptions)

Deferred compensation

Deferred compensation of $78,568 represents compensation due to an officer of the Company upon termination, retirement or death. This amount has not changed since 1992 and was accrued during the years 1984 through 1992.

Rental expense

Rental expense is accounted for on the straight-line method.

Deferred rent payable as of September 30, 2011 represents the excess of recognized rent expense over scheduled lease payments.

(B) FERRARA INTERNATIONAL LOGISTICS, INC. (JULY 18, 2008)

On July 18, 2008 the Company acquired the customs brokerage “book of business”, as defined, of Ferrara International Logistics, Inc. (“Ferrara”), consisting of books, records, forms, manuals, access codes, goodwill, customer lists and contact information, telephone and advertising listings (the “Business”) for the expansion of the Company’s international integrated logistics transport services business. Ferrara provides the Company with related marketing, advertising, sales, and related administrative services pursuant to the May 19, 2008 Sales Agency and Service Agreement (the “Sales Agreement”), which has a three-year term and non-competition provisions restricting Ferrara from competing with the Company.

The purchase price for the acquired assets was $2,077,070 (including transaction costs of $85,438 and net of imputed interest of $108,368), comprised of a $600,000 payment by the Company at closing, the issuance of 520,661 restricted shares of the Company’s $0.001 common stock (the “Shares”) valued at $630,000, based upon the $1.21 per share closing price of the Company’s common stock in the Over-The-Counter market on the Friday immediately preceding the closing date, a non-interest bearing $435,000 payment due one year after closing, and a non-interest bearing $435,000 payment due three years after the closing. The Company has imputed interest on these obligations at 7% per annum. The Company issued $400,000 of fixed rate convertible promissory notes to unrelated third parties, in part, fund this acquisition (see Note 8). The balance of the cash portion was paid from existing cash.

If the aggregate earnings of the Business before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (“EBITDA”) for the three years immediately following the closing fails to equal $2,100,000, the Company will be entitled to a reduction of the purchase price in an amount equal to three times the total three year EBITDA shortfall (the “Shortfall”). If the final note is not sufficient to satisfy the Shortfall, the appropriate number of Shares, valued at the closing market price on the third anniversary of the closing date, will be cancelled and returned to the Company’s authorized and unissued stock.

The compensation payable to Ferrara pursuant to the Sales Agreement is contingent upon the aggregate EBITDA of the Business for the three years immediately following the closing exceeding $2,100,000, in which event the Company will pay Ferrara 40% of the excess amount for that period, and for the following three years pay Ferrara 40% of the excess amount of annual EBITDA exceeding $700,000. For the three year period ended July 15, 2011 aggregate EBITDA totaled $2,185,954, an excess of $85,954 resulting in an additional amount due Ferrara of $34,382.

( C) FERRARA INTERNATIONAL LOGISTICS, INC. (OCTOBER 4, 2010)

On October 4, 2010, the Company acquired the international freight forwarding business of Ferrara consisting of books, records, forms, access codes, goodwill, customer lists and contact information, telephone and advertising listings for the expansion of the Company’s international freight forwarding business. pursuant to the terms of an Asset Purchase Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) between the Company and Ferrara dated October 4, 2010.

The purchase price for the acquired assets was $1,840,000 and consists of $600,000 of common stock and $1,400,000 of future cash to be paid, net of imputed interest of $160,000. Under the terms of the Purchase Agreement, the purchase price consists of (i) cash in an amount equal to 70% of the annual actual earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (EBITDA) achieved over the three 12-month periods following the Closing (the “Earn-Out Period”) from revenues generated from the customers included in the purchased assets, and (ii) 1,714,286 restricted shares of the Company’s Common Stock valued at $600,000 based on the closing market price of the stock on October 1, 2010 (the “Share Allocation”). The Share Allocation is subject to decrease if actual EBITDA from revenues generated from the customers included in the purchased assets during the Earn-Out Period is below $2 million, and will be issued in three installments on October 4, 2011, 2012 and 2013.

F-13

Purchase price allocation

In accordance with the purchase acquisition of accounting the Company has allocated the consideration to the net tangible and identifiable intangible assets, based on their estimated fair values. Goodwill represents the excess of the purchase price over the fair value of the underlying net tangible and identifiable intangible assets.

Pursuant to the terms of the Purchase Agreement, Nicholas V. Ferrara, the principal owner of Ferrara, will be employed by the Company at an annual salary of $182,000 plus benefits.

(D) PURCHASE PRICE ALLOCATION

In accordance with the acquisition method of accounting, the Company allocated the consideration to the net tangible and identifiable intangible assets, based on their estimated fair values. Goodwill represents the excess of the purchase price over the fair value of the underlying net tangible and identifiable intangible assets. The factors that contributed to the recognition of goodwill included securing buyer-specific synergies that increase revenue and profits and are not otherwise available to a marketplace participant, and the acquisition of a talented workforce.

The consideration has been allocated as follows:

16	RISKS AND UNCERTAINTIES

(a)

Currency risks

(b) Concentration of credit risk

The Company’s assets that are exposed to concentrations of credit risk consist primarily of cash and receivables from customers. The Company places its cash with financial institutions that have high credit ratings. The receivables from clients are spread over many customers. The Company maintains an allowance for uncollectible accounts receivable based on expected collectibility and performs ongoing credit evaluations of its customers’ financial condition.

(1) Janel is occasionally subject to claims and lawsuits which typically arise in the normal course of business. While the outcome of these claims cannot be predicated with certainty, management does not believe that the outcome of any of these legal matters will have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial position or results of operations.

(2) On February 11, 2008, The Company filed a lawsuit in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York against defendants World Logistics Services, Inc. (“World Logistics”), a Delaware Corporation formerly known as “Order Logistics, Inc.”; Richard S. Francis (“Francis”), the President of World Logistics; and Brian P. Griffin (“Griffin”), who was the Chief Executive Officer of World Logistics when Janel completed an acquisition in October 2007 of certain World Logistics assets.

In March 2010 the Company reached a settlement agreement and mutual general release with Brian Griffin. Terms of the settlement include the issuance of 489,750 shares of Janel’s common stock, surrender of 69,475 shares of preferred stock, elimination of a $125,000 note payable to the defendant and a release of any and all claims and demands of the defendant.

F-19

In November 2010 the Company reached a settlement agreement and mutual general releases with Francis. Terms of the settlement include the issuance of 780,000 shares of common stock to Mr. Francis, as well as payments totaling $23,359. Upon issuance and delivery of the settlement shares and payment of the cash settlement, both signed a stipulation and Order of Dismissal ending all claims made in their entirety.

(3) On August 22, 2011, the former CFO of Janel filed a lawsuit in the United States District Court for the Eastern District of New York against defendants Janel World Trade, Ltd., James N. Jannello, the Chief Executive Officer of the Company, and Stephen Cesarski, the former (retired) president of the Company. The complaint alleges, among other things, discrimination by the Company. At September 30, 2011, the Company established a $250,000 reserve as a contingency for this lawsuit which is included in selling, general and administrative expense.

(d) Relationships with officers

Janel’s former President and Chief Operating Officer and Executive Vice President and Chief Executive Officer, jointly own FCL/LCL International Inc., (“FCL/LCL”) a New York Corporation which is a consolidating indirect carrier that executed paperwork for Janel, from which they each received $3,000 and $14,000 from FCL/LCL for the years ending 2010 and 2009. FCL/LCL discontinued its operations in November, 2009.

These relationships involve actual or potential conflicts of interest between Janel and its officers.

(e) Concentration of sales

Sales to two major customers were approximately 30.5%, 27.4% and 16.5% of consolidated sales for the years ended September 30, 2011, 2010 and 2009, respectively. Amounts due from these customers aggregated approximately $670,000, $1,130,000 and $399,000 at September 30, 2011, 2010 and 2009, respectively.
