ITEM 1. BUSINESS.

GENERAL

Pharma-Bio Serv, Inc. is a Delaware corporation, organized in 2004 under the name Lawrence Consulting Group, Inc. In February 2006, our corporate name was changed to Pharma-Bio Serv, Inc.

On January 25, 2006, pursuant to an agreement and plan of merger among us, Plaza Acquisition Corp., Pharma-Bio Serv PR, Inc. (then known as Plaza Consulting Group, Inc. and referred to as “Pharma-PR”), and the then sole stockholder of Pharma-PR, Plaza Acquisition Corp. was merged into Pharma-PR, with the result that Pharma-PR became our wholly-owned subsidiary and our sole business became the business of Pharma-PR.

Pharma-PR business was established as a sole proprietorship in 1993 and incorporated in 1997 to offer compliance consulting services to the pharmaceutical industry. The business operations provide services to the pharmaceutical, biotechnology, medical device and chemical manufacturing companies principally in Puerto Rico, the United States and Europe.

Our executive offices are located at Pharma-Bio Serv Building, #6 Road 696, Dorado, Puerto Rico 00646. Our telephone number is (787) 278-2709. The financial information about our reporting segments appear in Note L to our Consolidated Financial Statements included in this Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Our website is www.pharmabioserv.com. Information on our website or any other website is not part of this Annual Report on Form 10-K.

References to “we,” “us,” “our” and similar words in this Annual Report on Form 10-K refer to Pharma-Bio Serv, Inc. and its subsidiaries.

OVERVIEW

We are a compliance and technology transfer services consulting firm with a laboratory testing facility with headquarters in Puerto Rico, servicing the Puerto Rico, United States and Europe markets. The compliance consulting service sector in those markets consists of local compliance and validation consulting firms, United States dedicated validation and compliance consulting firms and large publicly traded and private domestic and foreign engineering and consulting firms. We provide a broad range of compliance related consulting services. We also provide microbiological testing services and chemical testing services through our laboratory testing facility (“Lab”) in Puerto Rico. We also provide information technology consulting services and technical trainings/seminars, which services are not currently significant to our operating results. We market our services to pharmaceutical, chemical, biotechnology and medical devices, and allied products companies in Puerto Rico, the United States and Europe. Our team includes more than 180 experienced engineering and life science professionals, and includes former quality assurance managers or directors, and experienced and trained professionals with bachelors, masters and doctorate degrees in health sciences and engineering.

We have a well-established and consistent relationship with the major pharmaceutical, biotechnology, medical device and chemical manufacturing companies in Puerto Rico and the United States, which provides us access to affiliated companies in other markets. We seek opportunities in markets that could yield profitable margins using our professional consulting force and also provide services such as those performed by our microbiological testing laboratory facility, our information technology service division, Integratek, and our technical training division, Pharma Serv Academy.

Integratek provides a variety of information technology services such as web pages and portals development, digital art design, intranets, extranets, software development including database integration, Windows and web applications development, software technical training and learning management systems, technology project management, and compliance consulting services, among others. Our Pharma Serv Academy division, through a network of leading industry professional experts in their field, which include resources of our own, provides technical seminars/training that incorporates the latest regulatory trends and standards as well as other related areas. Although these services are not currently significant to our operating results, our goal is to broaden the portfolio of services that we can provide to our customer base and also target other potential customers in other industries.

-1-

We believe the most significant factors to achieving future business growth includes our ability to: (i) continue to provide quality value-added compliance services to our clients; (ii) recruit and retain highly educated and experienced professionals; (iii) further expand our products and services to address the expanding needs of our clients; and (iv) expand our market presence in the United States, Europe and possibly other emerging pharmaceutical markets in order to respond to the international compliance needs of our clients. Our business is affected to the extent current economic downturn affects the decision of our clients and potential clients to establish operations or to continue or expand their existing operations.

Our revenue is derived from (i) time and materials contracts (representing approximately 94% of total revenues), where the clients are charged for the time, materials and expenses incurred on a particular project or service, (ii) fixed-fee contracts or from “not to exceed” contracts (approximately 2% of total revenues), which are generally short-term contracts, in which the value of the contract cannot exceed a stated amount, and (iii) laboratory testing (representing approximately 4% of total revenues) which generally is completed and certified within days of sample receipt. For time and materials contracts, our revenue is principally a function of the number of resources and the number of hours billed per professional. To the extent that our revenue is based on fixed-fee or “not to exceed” contracts, our ability to operate profitably is dependent upon our ability to estimate accurately the costs that we will incur on a project and to manage and monitor the project. If we underestimate our costs on any contract, we could sustain a loss on the contract or its profitability might be reduced.

The principal components for our consulting costs of services are resource compensation (salaries and wages, independent contractors’ fees, taxes and benefits) and expenses relating to the performance of the services. In order to ensure that our pricing is competitive yet minimize the impact in our margins, we manage increasing labor costs by (i) selecting resources according to our cost for specific projects, (ii) negotiating, where applicable, rates with the resource, (iii) subcontracting labor and (iv) negotiating and passing rate increases to our customers, as applicable. Although this strategy has been successful in the past, we cannot give any assurance that such strategy will continue to be successful. As for our testing laboratory operation, the major costs of services components are salaries and wages, occupancy and depreciation expenses, plus consumable goods usage.

We have established quality systems for our employees which include:

Training Programs - including a Current Good Manufacturing Practices exam prior to recruitment and periodic refreshers;

Recruitment Full Training Program - including employee manual, dress code, time sheets and good project management and control procedures, job descriptions, and firm operating and administration procedures;

Safety Program - including OSHA, Environmental Health and Safety; and

Code of Ethics and Business Conduct - a code of ethics and business conduct is used and enforced as one of the most significant company controls on personal behavior.

In addition, we have implemented procedures to respond to client complaints and customer satisfaction survey procedures. As part of our employee performance appraisal annual process, our clients receive an evaluation form for employee project performance feedback, including compliance with our code of ethics.

BUSINESS STRATEGY AND OBJECTIVES

We are actively pursuing new markets as part of our growth strategy. We have a well-established and consistent relationship with the major pharmaceutical, biotechnology, medical device and chemical manufacturing companies in Puerto Rico and the United States which provides us access to affiliated companies in other markets. We seek opportunities in markets that could yield profitable margins using our professional consulting force and also provide new services such as those performed by our microbiological testing laboratory facility and our acquired information technology service firm.

-2-

Our business strategy is based on a commitment to provide premium quality and professional consulting services and reliable customer service to our customer base. Our business strategy and objectives are as follow:

Continue growth in consulting services in each technical service, quality assurance, regulatory compliance, technology transfer, validation, engineering, laboratory testing and manufacturing departments by achieving greater market penetration from our marketing and sales efforts;

Continue to enhance our technical consulting services through internal growth and acquisitions that provide solutions to our customers’ needs;

Motivate our professionals and support staff by implementing a compensation program which includes both individual performance and overall company performance as elements of compensation;

Create a pleasant corporate culture and emphasize operational quality safety and timely service;

Continue to maintain our reputation as a trustworthy and highly ethical partner; and

Efficiently manage our operating and financial costs and expenses.

2006 U.S. Validation Compliance Service Business Acquisition

In January 2006, we acquired a validation compliance service business which serves mainly the United States market. We host our U.S. market expansion plans from this organization.

2007 Entrance to Ireland Market

In September 2007, we entered into the Ireland market through the formation of an 80%-owned subsidiary. Currently, we provide the Ireland market the same services we are currently providing in the Puerto Rico and United States markets.

2008 Integratek Acquisition

On December 2008, we acquired through one of our subsidiaries the operations and assets of Integratek Corp. (“Integratek”), an information technology services and consulting firm based in Puerto Rico. With this acquisition we broaden the portfolio of services to our customer base and also target other potential customers in other industries.

2009 Laboratory Testing Facility

Our laboratory testing facility (“Lab”) located in Puerto Rico, with an investment of $1.5 million for microbiology, chemical and environmental testing, commenced operations in early fiscal 2009. The Lab incorporates the latest technology and test methodologies meeting pharmacopoeia industry standards and regulations. It offers testing and related services to our core industries already serviced as well as the cosmetic and food industries.

2011 Minority Controlled Company Certification

In line with the strategy to penetrate the United States market, on September 1, 2011 we obtained the renewal of the certification as a "minority-controlled company" as defined by the National Minority Supplier Development Council and Growth Initiative ("NMSDC"). The certification allows us to participate in corporate diversity programs available from various potential customers in the United States and Puerto Rico. The certification is subject to renewal on September 1, 2012.

TECHNICAL CONSULTING SERVICES

We have established a reputation as a premier technical consulting services firm to the pharmaceutical, biotechnology, medical device and chemical manufacturing industries in various markets. These services include regulatory compliance, validation, technology transfer, engineering, project management and process support. We have approximately 25 clients that are among the largest pharmaceutical, chemical manufacturing, medical device and biotechnology companies. We are actively participating in exhibitions, conferences, conventions and seminars as either exhibitors, sponsors or conference speakers.

MARKETING

We conduct our marketing activities in Puerto Rico, United States, Europe and other marketplaces. We actively utilize our project managers and leaders who are currently managing consulting service contracts at various client locations to also market consulting and laboratory testing services to their existing and past client relationships. Our senior management is also actively involved in the marketing process, especially in marketing to major accounts. Our senior management and staff also concentrate on developing new business opportunities and focus on the larger customer accounts (by number of professionals or dollar volume) and responding to prospective customers’ requests for proposals.

PRINCIPAL CUSTOMERS

We provide a substantial portion of our services to three customers, each of whom accounted for 10% or more of our revenues in the years ended October 31, 2011 and 2010. During the years ended October 31, 2011 and 2010, these customers accounted for, in the aggregate, 47% and 37% of total revenue, respectively. In December 2011, a customer vendor management program administrator, which is also a competitor of ours, for a major customer of Pharma-IR which represented 15% of the Company’s total consolidated revenue for fiscal year 2011, communicated its intent to place Pharma-IR in a probation/review period of approximately eight weeks starting at some point of time on January 2012. Among others, the administrator requested the decrease of billable margins to an already reduced billing structure and the level of service be improved. Although we are confident that we will vigorously react to the request, the final outcome and the eventual financial impact to the Company, if any, are uncertain at this point of time. In spite of the fact that just a few customers represent a significant source of revenue, our functions are not a continuous process, accordingly, the client base for which our services are typically rendered, on a project-by-project basis, changes regularly. Therefore, in any given year a small number of customers could represent a significant source of our revenue for that year. The loss of, or significant reduction in the scope of work performed for any major customer or our inability to replace customers upon completion of contracts could adversely affect our revenue and impair our ability to operate profitably.

COMPETITION

We are engaged in a highly competitive and fragmented industry. Some of our competitors are, on an overall basis, larger than we are or are subsidiaries of larger companies, and therefore may possess greater resources than we do. Furthermore, because the technical professional aspects of our consulting business do not usually require large amounts of capital, there is relative ease of market entry for a new entrant possessing acceptable professional qualifications. Accordingly, we compete with regional, national, and international firms. Within the Puerto Rico, United States and Europe markets, certain competitors, including local competitors, may possess greater resources than we do as well as better access to clients and potential clients.

Competition for validation and consulting services used to be primarily based on reputation, track record, experience, and quality of service. However, given the economic recession and our clients' strategies to reduce costs, price of service has become a major factor in sourcing our services. We believe that we enjoy significant competitive advantages over other consulting service firms because of our historical market share within Puerto Rico (19 years), brand name, reputation and track record with many of the major pharmaceutical, biotechnology, medical device and chemical manufacturing companies which have presence in the markets we are pursuing.

-4-

The market of qualified and experienced professionals that are capable of providing technical consulting services is very competitive and consists primarily of our competitors as well as companies in the pharmaceutical, chemical, biotechnology and medical device industries who are our clients and potential clients. In seeking qualified personnel we market our name recognition in the Puerto Rico market, the recent successes in the United States market, our reputation with our client, salary and benefit package, company stock options and a low turnover of qualified employees.

RAW MATERIALS

We require the use of various raw materials, including culture media, DNA reagents, LAL reagents and biological indicators, in our testing laboratory facility. We purchase these raw materials from various suppliers. At times, we concentrate orders among a few suppliers in order to strengthen our supplier relationships and receive quantity discounts. Raw materials are generally available from multiple suppliers at competitive prices, and amounts kept in stock are not significant.

ENVIRONMENTAL REGULATIONS

Activities in our microbiological testing laboratory facility are regulated under Puerto Rico and U.S. federal laws designed to protect workers and the environment. Some of these laws include the Occupational Safety and Health Act and the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act. These laws apply to the use, handling and disposal of various biological and chemical substances used in our processes. We believe we are in material compliance with these laws and that continued compliance will not have a materially adverse effect on our business. No specific accounting for environmental compliance has been maintained or projected by us at this time.

INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY RIGHTS

We have no proprietary software or products. We rely on non-disclosure agreements with our employees to protect the proprietary software and other proprietary information of our clients. Any unauthorized use or disclosure of this information could harm our business.

EMPLOYEES

We approximately employ 125 employees, all of which are full time employees. None of our employees are represented by a labor union, and we consider our employee relations to be good.

EXECUTIVE OFFICERS

The following table sets forth certain information with respect to our executive officers.

ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS.

This Annual Report on Form 10-K includes “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, including, in particular, certain statements about our plans, strategies and prospects. Although we believe that our plans, intentions and expectations reflected in or suggested by such forward-looking statements are reasonable, we cannot assure you that such plans, intentions or expectations will be achieved. Important factors that could cause our actual results to differ materially from our forward-looking statements include those set forth in this Risk Factors section.

If any of the following risks, or other risks not presently known to us or that we currently believe to not be significant, develop into actual events, then our business, financial condition, results of operations, cash flows or prospects could be materially adversely affected.

Risks That Relate to our Business

Because our business is concentrated in the pharmaceutical industry in Puerto Rico, United States and Europe, any changes in that industry or in those markets could impair our ability to generate revenue and realize a profit.

Since most of our business is performed in Puerto Rico, United States and Europe, for pharmaceutical, biotechnology, medical device and chemical manufacturing companies, our ability to generate revenue and realize a profit could be impaired by factors impacting those markets. For example, changes in tax laws or regulatory, political or economic conditions, which discourage businesses from operating in the markets we serve, which affect the need for services such as those provided by us, could impair our ability to generate revenue and realize a profit.

-6-

Puerto Rico government enacted ACT 154 of October 22, 2010 which may adversely affect the willingness of our customers to do business in Puerto Rico and consequently adversely affect our business.

On October 22, 2010, Act No. 154 was enacted by the Puerto Rico government. The Act primarily affects the industry we serve and consequently our customer base. Act 154 extends the circumstances under which a nonresident alien individual or a non resident corporation or partnership can be treated as doing business in Puerto Rico and is deriving income from sources within Puerto Rico for purposes of income tax. It also provides for the imposition of a temporary excise tax on some acquisitions by non-resident individuals, corporations or partnerships, of products total or partially manufactured or produced in Puerto Rico and of related services to said products of affiliated entities with the buyer. It basically adopts a modified income sourcing rule and a temporary excise tax that will be enforced for a period of six (6) years and will decrease gradually during this time.

The impact of the Act, if any, over the industry and its willingness to do business in Puerto Rico continues to be uncertain. Consequently, our ability to generate revenue in Puerto Rico may be impaired.

Changes in tax benefits may affect the willingness of companies to continue or expand their operations in Puerto Rico.

Until 1996, the Internal Revenue Code provided certain tax benefits to pharmaceutical companies operating in Puerto Rico by enabling their Puerto Rico operations to operate free from federal income taxes. Partly as a result of the tax benefits, numerous pharmaceutical companies established facilities in Puerto Rico. In 1996, this tax benefit was eliminated, although companies that had facilities in Puerto Rico could continue to receive these benefits for ten years, at which time the benefits were set to expire. In order to promote business activities in Puerto Rico, in May 2008 the Puerto Rico government enacted a tax incentive law (“Act 73”). Act 73 provides tax exemption from various taxes, including income tax, and investment credits for activities similar to those of our customers and our company. The change in the tax laws may affect favorably or unfavorably the willingness of pharmaceutical companies to continue or to expand their Puerto Rico operations. To the extent that pharmaceutical companies choose to develop and manufacture products outside of Puerto Rico, our ability to generate new business may be adversely impaired.

Puerto Rico’s economy, including its governmental financial crisis, may affect the willingness of businesses to commence or expand operations in Puerto Rico.

As a result of Puerto Rico’s governmental financial crisis, businesses may be reluctant to establish or expand their operations in Puerto Rico. Further, since Puerto Rico’s economy is petroleum-based, the fluctuating price of oil, combined with Puerto Rico’s high level of debt, may make Puerto Rico a less attractive place to expand existing operations or commence new business activities. To the extent that companies in the pharmaceutical and related industries decide not to commence new operations or not to expand their existing operations in Puerto Rico, the market for our services may decline.

Other factors, including economic factors, may affect the decision of businesses to continue or expand their operations in the markets we serve.

Companies in the pharmaceutical and related industries for which we perform service are subject to economic pressures, which affect their global operations and which may influence the decision to reduce or increase the scope of their operations in the markets we serve. These companies consider a wide range of factors in making such a decision, and may be influenced by a need to consolidate operations, to reduce expenses, to increase their business in geographical regions where there are large customer bases, tax, regulatory and political considerations and many other factors. We cannot assure you that our customers and potential customers will not make extensive reductions or terminate their operations in the markets we serve entirely, which could significantly impair our ability to generate revenue.

Because our business is dependent upon a small number of clients, the loss of a major client could impair our ability to operate profitably.

Our business has been dependent upon a small number of clients. During the years ended October 31, 2011 and 2010, a very small number of clients accounted for a disproportionately large percentage of our revenue. In the years ended October 31, 2011 and 2010, three customers accounted for, in aggregate, approximately 47% and 37% of total revenue, respectively.

-7-

The loss of, or significant reduction in the scope of work performed for, or any significant change in the financial terms related to, any major customer, could impair our ability to operate profitably. We cannot assure that we will not sustain significant decreases in revenue from our major customers or that we will be able to replace any major customers or the resulting decline in revenue.

Customer procurement and sourcing practices intended to reduce costs could have an adverse affect on our margins and profitability.

In an effort to reduce their costs, many of our customers are establishing or extending the scope of their procurement departments to include consulting and project services such as ours. As a result, we have less interaction with the end user of our services (typically labs or production units) when bidding on a project, which we believe decreases the focus on the quality of service provided and increases the emphasis on cost of the service. This may cause us to lower the price of our bids, which would reduce the margins in a given project. Also, some customers have established vendor management programs with third-parties (some of whom are also our competitors). Because these vendor management programs may receive a percentage of our fees, without a corresponding increase in the fee itself, our margins would decline. In addition, where a vendor management program is a competitor for a particular service we provide, we may have difficulty securing that particular project, which would adversely impact revenue.

Since our business is dependent upon the development and enhancement of patented pharmaceutical products or processes by our clients, the failure of our clients to obtain and maintain patents could impair our ability to operate profitably.

Companies in the pharmaceutical industry are highly dependent on their ability to obtain and maintain patents for their products or processes. We are aware of some pharmaceutical companies with operations in Puerto Rico whose patent rights may expire in the near future. The inability to obtain new patents and the expiration of active patents may reduce the need for our services and thereby impair our ability to operate profitably.

We may be unable to pass on increased labor costs to our clients.

The principal components of our cost of revenues are employee compensation (salaries, wages, taxes and benefits) and expenses relating to the performance of the services we provide. We face increasing labor costs which we seek to pass on to our customers through increases in our rates. To remain competitive, we may not be able to pass these increased costs on to our clients, and, to the extent that we are not able to pass these increased costs on to our clients, our gross margin will be reduced.

Consolidation in the pharmaceutical industry may have a harmful effect on our business.

In recent years, the pharmaceutical industry has undergone consolidation, and may in the future undergo further substantial consolidation which may reduce the number of our existing and potential customers. The consolidation in the pharmaceutical industry may have a harmful effect on our business and or ability to maintain and replace customers.

Because the pharmaceutical industry is subject to government regulations, changes in government regulations relating to this industry may affect the need for our services.

Because government regulations affect all aspects of the pharmaceutical, biotechnology, medical device and chemical manufacturing industries, including regulations relating to the testing and manufacturing of pharmaceutical products and the disposal of materials which are or may be considered toxic, any change in government regulations could have a profound effect upon not only these companies but companies, such as ours, that provide services to these industries. If we are not able to adapt and provide necessary services to meet the requirements of these companies in response to changes in government regulations, our ability to generate business may be impaired.

-8-

If we are unable to protect our clients’ intellectual property, our ability to generate business will be impaired.

Our services either require us to develop intellectual property for clients or provide our personnel with access to our clients’ intellectual property. Because of the highly competitive nature of the pharmaceutical, biotechnology, medical device and chemical manufacturing industries and the sensitivity of our clients’ intellectual property rights, our ability to generate business would be impaired if we fail to protect those rights. Although all of our employees and contractors are required to sign non-disclosure agreements, any disclosure of a client’s intellectual property by an employee or contractor may subject us to litigation and may impair our ability to generate business either from the affected client or other potential clients. In addition, we are required to enter into confidentiality agreements and our failure to protect the confidential information of our clients may impair our business relationship.

We may be subject to liability if our services or solutions for our clients infringe upon the intellectual property rights of others.

It is possible that in performing services for our clients, we may inadvertently infringe upon the intellectual property rights of others. In such event, the owner of the intellectual property may commence litigation seeking damages and an injunction against both us and our client, and the client may bring a claim against us. Any infringement litigation would be costly, regardless of whether we ultimately prevail. Even if we prevail, we will incur significant expenses and our reputation would be hurt, which would affect our ability to generate business and the terms on which we would be engaged, if at all.

We may be held liable for the actions of our employees or contractors when on assignment.

We may be exposed to liability for actions taken by our employees or contractors while on assignment, such as damages caused by their errors, misuse of client proprietary information or theft of client property. Due to the nature of our assignments, we cannot assure you that we will not be exposed to liability as a result of our employees or contractors being on assignment.

To the extent that we perform services pursuant to fixed-price or incentive-based contracts, our cost of services may exceed our revenue on the contract.

Some of our revenue is derived from fixed-price contracts. Our costs of services may exceed revenue of these contracts if we do not accurately estimate the time and complexity of an engagement. Further, we are seeking contracts by which our compensation is based on specified performance objectives, such as the realization of cost savings, quality improvements or other performance objectives. Our failure to achieve these objectives would reduce our revenue and could impair our ability to operate profitably.

Our profit margin is largely a function of the rates we are able to charge and collect for our services and the utilization rate of our professionals. Accordingly, if we are not able to maintain our pricing for our services or an appropriate utilization rate for our professionals without corresponding cost reductions, our profit margin and profitability will suffer. The rates we are able to charge for our services are affected by a number of factors, including:

Our clients’ perception of our ability to add value through our services;

Our ability to complete projects on time;

Pricing policies of competitors;

Our ability to accurately estimate, attain and sustain engagement revenues, margins and cash flows over increasingly longer contract periods; and

General economic and political conditions.

-9-

Our utilization rates are also affected by a number of factors, including:

Our ability to move employees and contractors from completed projects to new engagements; and

Our ability to manage attrition of our employees and contractors.

Because most of our contracts may be terminated on little or no advance notice, our failure to generate new business could impair our ability to operate profitably.

Most of our contracts can be terminated by our clients with little or no advance notice. Our clients typically retain us on a non-exclusive, engagement-by-engagement basis, and the client may terminate, cancel or delay any engagement or the project for which we are engaged, at any time and on no advance notice. As a result, the termination, cancellation, expiration or delay of contracts could have a significant impact on our ability to operate profitably.

Because of the competitive nature of the pharmaceutical, biotechnology, medical device and chemical manufacturing consulting market, we may not be able to compete effectively if we cannot efficiently respond to changes in the structure of the market and developments in technology.

Because of recent consolidations in the pharmaceutical, biotechnology, medical device and chemical manufacturing consulting business, we are faced with an increasing number of larger companies that offer a wider range of services and have better access to capital than we have. We believe that larger and better-capitalized competitors have enhanced abilities to compete for both clients and skilled professionals. In addition, one or more of our competitors may develop and implement methodologies that result in superior productivity and price reductions without adversely affecting their profit margins. We cannot assure you that we will be able to compete effectively in an increasingly competitive market.

Because we are dependent upon our management, our ability to develop our business may be impaired if we are not able to engage skilled personnel.

Our success to date has depended in large part on the skills and efforts of Elizabeth Plaza, our president, chief executive officer and founder. The loss of the services of Ms. Plaza could have a material adverse effect on the development and success of our business. Although we have a contract with Ms. Plaza, this agreement does not guarantee that she will continue to be employed by us. Our future success will depend in part upon our ability to attract and retain additional qualified management and technical personnel. Competition for such personnel is intense and we compete for qualified personnel with numerous other employers, including consulting firms, some of which have greater resources than we have, as well as pharmaceutical companies, most of which have significantly greater financial and other resources than we do. We may experience increased costs in order to retain and attract skilled employees. Our failure to attract additional personnel or to retain the services of key personnel and independent contractors could have a material adverse effect on our ability to operate profitably.

We may not be able to continue to grow unless we consummate acquisitions or enter markets outside of Puerto Rico, the United States and Ireland.

An important part of our growth strategy is (i) to acquire other businesses which can increase the range of services and products that we can offer and (ii) to establish offices in places where we do not presently operate, either by acquisition or by internal growth. If we fail to make any acquisitions or otherwise expand our business, our future growth may be limited. The success in any market will be dependent on such factors as regulatory, tax, political or economic conditions, our abilities to penetrate the market, hire qualified personnel in a timely manner, obtain and maintain reasonable labor costs, generate service revenue volume and profitable margins.

-10-

If we identify a proposed acquisition, we may require substantial cash to fund the cost of the acquisition.

Any acquisitions we make may be made with cash or our securities or a combination of cash and securities. To the extent that we require cash, we may have to borrow the funds or sell equity securities. We have no commitments from any financing source and we may not be able to raise any cash necessary to complete an acquisition. If we seek to expand our business internally, we will incur significant start-up expenses without any assurance of our ability to penetrate the market.

If we make any acquisitions, they may disrupt or have a negative impact on our business.

If we make acquisitions or establish operations in locales outside of Puerto Rico, we could have difficulty integrating the acquired companies’ personnel and operations with our own. In addition, the key personnel of the acquired business may not be willing to work for us. We cannot predict the effect an expansion may have on our core business. Regardless of whether we are successful in making an acquisition, the negotiations could disrupt our ongoing business, distract our management and employees and increase our expenses. In addition to the risks described above, acquisitions are accompanied by a number of inherent risks, including, without limitation, the following:

the difficulty of integrating acquired products, services or operations;

the potential disruption of the ongoing businesses and distraction of our management and the management of acquired companies;

the potential loss of contracts from clients of acquired companies;

the difficulty of maintaining profitability due to increased labor and expenses from acquired company;

difficulties in complying with regulations in other countries that relate to both the pharmaceutical or other industries to which we provide services as well as our own operations;

difficulties in maintaining uniform standards, controls, procedures and policies;

the potential impairment of relationships with employees and customers as a result of any integration of new management personnel;

the potential inability or failure to achieve additional sales and enhance our customer base through cross-marketing of the products to new and existing customers;

the effect of any government regulations which relate to the business acquired;

potential unknown liabilities associated with acquired businesses or product lines, or the need to spend significant amounts to retool, reposition or modify the marketing and sales of acquired products or the defense of any litigation, whether of not successful, resulting from actions of the acquired company prior to our acquisition;

difficulties in disposing of the excess or idle facilities of an acquired company or business and expenses in maintaining such facilities; and

potential expenses under the labor, environmental and other laws of other countries.

Our business could be severely impaired if and to the extent that we are unable to succeed in addressing any of these risks or other problems encountered in connection with an acquisition. Further, the commencement of business in locales where we have no current operations may be subject to additional significant risks.

Risks Concerning our Securities

Because there is a limited market in our common stock, stockholders may have difficulty in selling our common stock and our common stock may be subject to significant price swings.

There is a very limited market for our common stock. Since trading commenced in December 2006, there has been little activity in our common stock and on some days there is no trading in our common stock. Because of the limited market for our common stock, the purchase or sale of a relatively small number of shares may have an exaggerated effect on the market price for our common stock. We cannot assure stockholders that they will be able to sell common stock or, that if they are able to sell their shares, that they will be able to sell the shares in any significant quantity at the quoted price.

Our revenues, operating results and profitability will vary from quarter to quarter, which may result in increased volatility of our stock price.

Our quarterly revenues, operating results and profitability have varied in the past and are likely to vary significantly from quarter to quarter, making them difficult to predict. This may lead to volatility in our share price. The factors that are likely to cause these variations are:

Seasonality, including number of workdays and holiday and summer vacations;

The business decisions of clients regarding the use of our services;

Periodic differences between clients’ estimated and actual levels of business activity associated with ongoing engagements, including the delay, reduction in scope and cancellation of projects;

The stage of completion of existing projects and their termination;

Our ability to move employees quickly from completed projects to new engagements and our ability to replace completed contracts with new contracts with the same clients or other clients;

The introduction of new services by us or our competitors;

Changes in pricing policies by us or our competitors;

Our ability to manage costs, including personnel compensation, support-services and severance costs;

Acquisition and integration costs related to possible acquisitions of other businesses;

Changes in estimates, accruals and payments of variable compensation to our employees or contractors; and

Global economic and political conditions and related risks, including acts of terrorism.

The issuance of securities, whether in connection with an acquisition or otherwise, may result in significant dilution to our stockholders.

If we are required to issue securities either as payment of all or a portion of the purchase price of an acquisition or in order to obtain financing for the acquisition or for other corporate purposes could result in dilution to our stockholders. The amount of such dilution will be dependent upon the terms on which we issue securities. The issuance of securities at a price which is less than the exercise price of warrants or the conversion price of securities could result in additional dilution if we are required to reduce the exercise price or conversion price of the then outstanding options or warrants or other convertible securities.

ITEM 1B. UNRESOLVED STAFF COMMENTS.

Not applicable.

ITEM 2. PROPERTIES.

In February 2007, we entered into an agreement for our main resource facilities in Dorado, Puerto Rico with Plaza Professional Center, Inc., a company controlled by Elizabeth Plaza. These facilities accommodate our testing laboratory, our customer-specialized training facilities, and our Puerto Rico consulting and headquarters offices. The agreement is for a five year term, with initial monthly installments of $18,750, which will increase by 5% annually. The agreement also requires the payment of utilities, property taxes, insurance and a portion of expenses incurred by the affiliate in connection with the maintenance of common areas. The agreement provides for a renewal option under the same terms and will come effective February 2012 for a period of five additional years.

Effective November 2011, the Company renegotiated with the landlord the lease for the US consulting office facilities located in Plymouth, Pennsylvania. This three-year term lease was due to expire in February 2013 and had $2,100 in monthly rental payments. Under the renegotiation the original lease was cancelled and a new lease was executed for a larger and better located facility, also in Plymouth, Pennsylvania. The new lease is for a five-year term with monthly rental payments of $6,282 for the first three years. Thereafter, the lease will increase four percent every year, including the five-year renewal option, if executed.

Our Ireland consulting office facilities are located in Cork, Ireland. Currently, the facilities are under a month-to-month lease with monthly payments of approximately $900.

We believe that our present facilities are adequate to meet our needs and that, if we require additional space, it will be available on commercially reasonable terms.

ITEM 3. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS.

From time to time, we may be a party to legal proceedings incidental to our business. We do not believe that there are any proceedings threatened or pending against us, which, if determined adversely to us, would have a material effect on our financial position or results of operations and cash flows.

ITEM 5. MARKET FOR REGISTRANT’S COMMON EQUITY, RELATED STOCKHOLDER MATTERS AND ISSUER PURCHASES OF EQUITY SECURITIES.

Our common stock has been quoted on the Over the Counter Bulletin Board under the trading symbol PBSV since December 4, 2006. The table below presents the closing high and low bid prices for our common stock for each quarter during the two most recent fiscal years. These prices reflect inter-dealer prices, without retail markup, markdown, or commission, and may not represent actual transactions.

Quarter Ending	High Bid		Low Bid
January 31, 2010	$	0.48	$	0.16
April 30, 2010		0.35		0.10
July 31, 2010		0.37		0.22
October 31, 2010		0.32		0.23
January 31, 2011		0.35		0.26
April 30, 2011		0.40		0.30
July 31, 2011		0.43		0.20
October 31, 2011		0.78		0.37

On January 26, 2012, the closing price of our common stock on the Over the Counter Bulletin Board was $0.72 per share and there were approximately 80 holders of record of our common stock.

Prior to the acquisition of Pharma-PR in 2006, Pharma-PR was taxed as an N Corporation under the Puerto Rico Internal Revenue Code, which is similar to that of an S Corporation under the Internal Revenue Code. As a result, all of the income from Pharma-PR was taxed to our then sole stockholder. Other than the distributions to our then sole stockholder which were made during the period that we were an N Corporation, we have not paid dividends on our common stock. We plan to retain future earnings, if any, for use in our business. We do not anticipate paying dividends on our common stock in the foreseeable future.

Equity Compensation Plan Information

The following table summarizes the equity compensation plans under which our securities may be issued as of October 31, 2011.

Plan Category	Number of securities to be issued upon exercise of outstanding options and warrants		Weighted-average exercise price per share of outstanding options and warrants		Number of securities remaining available for future issuance under equity compensation plans
Equity compensation plans approved by security holders		454,585	$	0.5974		2,045,415
Equity compensation plans not approved by security holders		1,830,991	$	0.0600		16,500

The securities issuable pursuant to the equity plan that was approved by security holders is the 2005 long-term incentive plan, which was approved by stockholders in April 2006, and amended by stockholder approval in April 2007.

The equity compensation plans not approved by security holders are (i) warrants to purchase 1,830,991 shares of common stock issued to San Juan Holdings for services relating to the acquisition of Pharma-PR and (ii) approximately 16,500 shares of common stock underlying options issuable to employees.

ITEM 7. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS.

The following discussion of our results of operations and financial condition should be read in conjunction with Part I, including matters set forth in the “Risk Factors” section of this Annual Report on Form 10-K, and our Consolidated Financial Statements and notes thereto included elsewhere in this Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Overview

We are a compliance services consulting firm with a laboratory testing facility with headquarters in Puerto Rico, servicing the Puerto Rico, United States and Europe markets. The compliance consulting service sector in those markets consists of local compliance and validation consulting firms, United States dedicated validation and compliance consulting firms and large publicly traded and private domestic and foreign engineering and consulting firms. We provide a broad range of compliance related consulting services. We also provide microbiological testing services and chemical testing services through our laboratory testing facility (“Lab”) in Puerto Rico. We also provide information technology consulting services and technical trainings/seminars, which services are not currently significant to our operating results. We market our services to pharmaceutical, chemical, biotechnology and medical devices, and allied products companies in Puerto Rico, the United States and Europe. Our team includes more than 180 experienced engineering and life science professionals, and includes former quality assurance managers or directors, and experienced and trained professionals with bachelors, masters and doctorate degrees in health sciences and engineering.

We actively operate in Puerto Rico, United States and Ireland and continue to pursue to further expand these markets by strengthening our business development infrastructure and by constantly realigning our business strategies as new opportunities and challenges arise.

We market our services with an active presence in industry trade shows, professional conventions, industry publications and company provided seminars to the industry. Our senior management is also actively involved in the marketing process, especially in marketing to major accounts. Our senior management and staff also concentrate on developing new business opportunities and focus on the larger customer accounts (by number of professionals or dollar volume) and responding to prospective customers’ requests for proposals.

While our core business is FDA and international agencies regulatory compliance related services, we feel that our clients are in need of other services that we can provide and allow us to present the company as a global solution provider with a portfolio of integrated services that will bring value added solutions to our customers. Accordingly, our portfolio of services include a laboratory testing facility, an information technology consulting practice and a training center that provides seminars/trainings to the industry.

The Lab incorporates the latest technology and test methodologies meeting pharmacopoeia industry standards and regulations. It currently offers services to our core industries already serviced as well as the cosmetic and food industries.

We also provide technical seminars/trainings that incorporate the latest regulatory trends and standards as well as other related areas. A network of leading industry professional experts in their field, which include resources of our own, provide these seminars/trainings to the industry through our “Pharma Serv Academy” division. These services are provided in the markets we currently serve, as well as others, and position our Company as a key leader in the industry.

Our information technology services and consulting division based in Puerto Rico (“Integratek”) provide a variety of information technology services such as web pages and portals development, digital art design, intranets, extranets, software development including database integration, Windows and web applications development, software technical training and learning management systems, technology project management, and compliance consulting services, among others. Integratek is a Microsoft Certified Partner and a reseller for technology products from leading vendors in the market.

In line with the strategy to further penetrate the United States and Puerto Rico markets, we submit annually for renewal the certification as a "minority-controlled company" as defined by the National Minority Supplier Development Council and Growth Initiative ("NMSDC"). This certification allows us to participate in corporate diversity programs available from various potential customers in the United States and Puerto Rico.

-15-

Fiscal year 2011 has been a year of challenges and opportunities for the Company. Among others, industry consolidations, the pharmaceutical regulatory environment, changes in tax laws, customers’ price sensitive procurement processes, and the local and global economies recession continue to be factors and uncertainties that affect our business. As such, we are constantly realigning our business strategies as new opportunities and challenges arise.

During fiscal year 2011, we have seen a contraction of the pharmaceutical industry, consequently various competitors are no longer active and industry resources are more readily available. Furthermore, we believe the additional regulatory oversight of the pharmaceutical industry as imminent. To date, we have been able to capitalize on the related challenges and opportunities in the United States and Puerto Rico consulting markets, in which revenues have increased by $4.4 million and $2.6 million, respectively, as compared to last fiscal year. Accordingly, for fiscal year 2012 we have aligned and increased our business development and operations support to follow the consulting business favorable revenue trend. For fiscal year 2011, other Company divisions sustained minor revenue gains or remained constant, when compared to last year.

For the year ended in October 31, 2011, our total net revenues increased by approximately $8.5 million, or 75%, when compared to last year. We have realigned our business strategies, and increased our business development and operations support to follow the favorable revenue trend. In addition, we have continued our efforts to broaden the Lab’s customer base. These factors, and the favorable adjustments on income tax savings related to the Act 73 Grant, have led our year ended October 31, 2011 net income to be approximately $3.2 million, an increase of $2.8 million, or an increase in profit margin of 12.5 percentage points when compared with last year.

The following table sets forth information as to our revenue for the years ended October 31, 2011 and 2010, by geographic regions (dollars in thousands).

	Year ended October 31,
Revenues by Region	2011				2010
Puerto Rico	$	10,743	53.9	%	$	7,532	66.4%	%
United States		5,868	29.4	%		1,423	12.5%	%
Europe		3,322	16.7	%		2,391	21.1	%
	$	19,933	100.0	%	$	11,346	100.0%	%

Looking forward to our challenges for fiscal year 2012, in December 2011, a customer vendor management program administrator, who is also a competitor of ours, for a major customer of Pharma-IR which represented 15% of the Company’s total consolidated revenue for fiscal year 2011, communicated its intent to place Pharma-IR in a probation/review period of approximately eight weeks starting at some point of time on January 2012. Among others, the administrator requested the decrease of billable margins to an already reduced billing structure and the level of service be improved. The final outcome and the eventual financial impact to the Company, if any, are uncertain at this point of time.

In addition, weak economies where we do business and worldwide industry consolidations will continue to be unfavorable factors going forward. These factors, and the impact on the industry, if any, of the recently enacted US health care reform (Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act) and Puerto Rico Act 154 which imposed temporary excise taxes to the industry we serve, remain as industry uncertainties that might adversely affect our future performance. We believe that our future profitability and liquidity will be highly dependent on the effect the global economy, changes in tax laws and worldwide lifescience manufacturing industry consolidations will have over our operations, and our ability to seek service opportunities and adapt to the current industry trends.

Results of Operations

The following table sets forth our statements of operations for the years ended October 31, 2011 and 2010, (dollars in thousands) and as a percentage of revenue:

	Year ended October 31,
	2011				2010
Revenues	$	19,933	100.0	%	$	11,346	100.0	%
Cost of services		13,072	65.6	%		7,953	70.1	%
Gross profit		6,861	34.4	%		3,393	29.9	%
Selling, general and administrative costs		3,409	17.1	%		2,783	24.5	%
Other income, net		12	0.0	%		11	0.1	%
Income before income taxes		3,464	17.3	%		621	5.5	%
Income tax expense		305	1.5	%		249	2.2	%
Net income		3,159	15.8	%		372	3.3	%

Revenues . Revenues for the year ended October 31, 2011 were $19.9 million, an increase of approximately $8.5 million, or 75%, when compared to last year. This improvement is mainly attributable to $4.4 and $2.6 million gain in the United States and Puerto Rico consulting markets, respectively. The additional increase is distributed almost evenly between the Ireland and Integratek divisions.

The increase in the United States, Ireland and Integratek operations are mostly attributable to volume acquired from one customer in each of these divisions.

Cost of Services; gross margin . The overall gross margin for the year ended in October 31, 2011 reflected a gross margin net gain of 4.5 percentage points, when compared to last year. The net increase is mainly attributable to project gains attained in the consulting business (mostly influenced by major customers), partially offset by the Lab’s low gross margin yield as a function of billings versus fixed costs of services.

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses . Selling, general and administrative expenses for the year ended in October 31, 2011 were approximately $3.4 million, a net increase in expenses of approximately $0.6 million as compared to last year. Business development and operations support expenses were increased to follow the consulting business favorable revenue trend.

Income Taxes Expense . Savings on the effective income tax rate are attributable to the Puerto Rico new tax grant, which significantly reduced the effective income tax rates for the Puerto Rico operation. In addition, the new tax Grant triggered favorable non-recurring adjustments booked in the year ended in October 31, 2011 in the aggregate amount of $0.2 million which is attributable to Fiscal Year 2010.

Net Income. Our net income for year ended October 31, 2011 was approximately $3.2 million, an increase of $2.8 million, or an increase in profit margin of 12.5 percentage points, when compared with the same period last year.

For the year ended October 31, 2011, earnings per common share basic and diluted were $0.152 and $0.140, respectively, an increase of $0.134 and $0.123 per share, respectively, when compared to last year.

The non-recurring adjustment booked in the year ended October 31, 2011, related to the adoption of the Act 73 Grant, had the aggregate effect of increasing earnings per share basic and diluted by $0.010.

Our net income improvement is attributable mainly to the increase in overall gross margin, the savings obtained by the new Act 73 Grant, offset by the increase in selling general and administrative expenses to support the favorable revenue trend.

-17-

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Liquidity is a measure of our ability to meet potential cash requirements, including planned capital expenditures. For the year ended October 31, 2011, we generated a working capital increase of approximately $3.3 million.

Our primary cash needs consist of the payment of compensation to our professional staff, overhead expenses, and statutory taxes. Management believes that based on the current level of operations and cash flows from operations, the collectibility of high quality customer receivables will be sufficient to fund anticipated expenses and satisfy other possible long-term contractual commitments for the next twelve months.

To the extent that we pursue possible opportunities to expand our operations, either by acquisition or by the establishment of operations in a new locale, we will incur additional overhead, and there may be a delay between the period we commence operations and our generation of net cash flow from operations.

While uncertainties relating to the current local and global economic condition, competition, the industries and geographical regions served by us and other regulatory matters exist within the consulting services industry, as described above, management is not aware of any trends or events likely to have a material adverse effect on liquidity or its financial statements.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

We were not involved in any significant off-balance sheet arrangements during the fiscal year ended October 31, 2011.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

The discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations are based upon our consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) in the United States. We believe the following are the critical accounting policies that impact the consolidated financial statements, some of which are based on management’s best estimates available at the time of preparation. Actual experience may differ from these estimates.

Consolidation - The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of all of our wholly owned and majority-owned subsidiaries. All intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation.

Use of Estimates - The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States 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 consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. Actual results may differ from these estimates.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments - Accounting standards have established a fair value hierarchy that requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. A financial instrument’s categorization within the fair value hierarchy is based upon the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. Accounting standards have established three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value:

Level 1 :	Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities.

Level 2 :	Observable inputs other than Level 1 prices such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities, quoted prices in markets with insufficient volume or infrequent transactions (less active markets), or model-derived valuations in which all significant inputs are observable or can be derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities.

Level 3 :	Prices or valuation techniques that require inputs that are both significant to the fair value measurement and unobservable (supported by little or no market activity).

Marketable securities consist of an obligation from the Puerto Rico Government Development Bank valued using quoted market prices in active markets with no valuation adjustment. Accordingly, this security is categorized in Level 1.

The carrying value of the Company's financial instruments (excluding marketable securities and obligations under capital leases): cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued liabilities, are considered reasonable estimates of fair value due to their liquidity or short-term nature. Management believes, based on current rates, that the fair value of its obligations under capital leases approximates the carrying amount.

Revenue Recognition - Revenue is primarily derived from: (1) time and materials contracts (representing approximately 94% of total revenues), which is recognized by applying the proportional performance model, whereby revenue is recognized as performance occurs, (2) short-term fixed-fee contracts or "not to exceed" contracts (representing approximately 2% of total revenues), which revenue is recognized similarly, except that certain milestones also have to be reached before revenue is recognized, and (3) laboratory testing revenue (representing approximately 4% of total revenues) is mainly recognized as the testing is completed and certified (normally within days of sample receipt from customer). If we determine that a contract will result in a loss, we recognize the estimated loss in the period in which such determination is made.

-19-

Cash Equivalents - For purposes of the consolidated statements of cash flows, cash equivalents include investments in a money market obligations trust that is registered under the U.S. Investment Company Act of 1940 and liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less.

Marketable Securities - We consider our marketable security investment portfolio and marketable equity investments available-for-sale and, accordingly, these investments are recorded at fair value with unrealized gains and losses generally recorded in other comprehensive income; whereas realized gains and losses are included in earnings and determined based on the specific identification method.

Accounts Receivable - Accounts receivable are recorded at their estimated realizable value. Accounts are deemed past due when payment has not been received within the stated time period. Our policy is to review individual past due amounts periodically and write off amounts for which all collection efforts are deemed to have been exhausted. Due to the nature of our customers, bad debts are mainly accounted for using the direct write-off method whereby an expense is recognized only when a specific account is determined to be uncollectible. The effect of using this method approximates that of the allowance method.

Income Taxes - We follow an asset and liability approach method of accounting for income taxes. This method measures deferred income taxes by applying enacted statutory rates in effect at the balance sheet date to the differences between the tax basis of assets and liabilities and their reported amounts on the financial statements. The resulting deferred tax assets or liabilities are adjusted to reflect changes in tax laws as they occur. A valuation allowance is provided when it is more likely than not that a deferred tax asset will not be realized.

The Company follows guidance from the FASB related to Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes, which includes a two-step approach to recognizing, de-recognizing and measuring uncertain tax positions. By the end of fiscal year 2011, the Company had no significant uncertain tax positions that would be reduced as a result of a lapse of the applicable statute of limitations.

Property and equipment - Owned property and equipment, and leasehold improvements are stated at cost. Equipment and vehicles under capital leases are stated at the lower of fair market value or net present value of the minimum lease payments at the inception of the leases.

Depreciation and amortization of owned assets are provided for, when placed in service, in amounts sufficient to relate the cost of depreciable assets to operations over their estimated service lives, using straight-line basis. Assets under capital leases and leasehold improvements are amortized, over the shorter of the estimated useful lives of the assets or lease term. Major renewals and betterments that extend the life of the assets are capitalized, while expenditures for repairs and maintenance are expensed when incurred.

We evaluate for impairment our long-lived assets to be held and used, and long-lived assets to be disposed of, whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Based on management estimates, no impairment of the operating properties was present.

Intangible assets - Definite-lived intangible assets, such as customer lists and covenants not to compete, are amortized on a straight-line basis over their estimated useful lives. We continually evaluate the reasonableness of the useful lives of these assets.

Stock-based Compensation - Stock-based compensation expense is recognized in the consolidated financial statements based on the fair value of the awards granted. Stock-based compensation cost is measured at the grant date based on the fair value of the award and is recognized as expense over the requisite service period, which generally represents the vesting period, and includes an estimate of awards that will be forfeited. We calculate the fair value of stock options using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model at grant date. Excess tax benefits related to stock-based compensation are reflected as cash flows from financing activities rather than cash flows from operating activities. We have not recognized such cash flow from financing activities since there has been no tax benefit related to the stock-based compensation.

Income Per Share of Common Stock - Basic income per share of common stock is calculated dividing net income by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding. Diluted income per share includes the dilution of common stock equivalents. The diluted weighted average shares of common stock outstanding were calculated using the treasury stock method for the respective periods.

-20-

Foreign Operations - The functional currency of our foreign subsidiary is its local currency. The assets and liabilities of our foreign subsidiary are translated into U.S. dollars at exchange rates in effect at the balance sheet date. Income and expense items are translated at the average exchange rates prevailing during the period. The cumulative translation effect for subsidiaries using a functional currency other than the U.S. dollar is included as a cumulative translation adjustment in stockholders’ equity and as a component of comprehensive income.

Our intercompany accounts are typically denominated in the functional currency of the foreign subsidiary. Gains and losses resulting from the remeasurement of intercompany receivables that we consider to be of a long-term investment nature are recorded as a cumulative translation adjustment in stockholders’ equity and as a component of comprehensive income, while gains and losses resulting from the remeasurement of intercompany receivables from those international subsidiaries for which we anticipate settlement in the foreseeable future are recorded in the consolidated statements of operations. The net gains and losses recorded in the consolidated statements of income were not significant for the periods presented.

New Accounting Standards

Recently issued FASB guidance and SEC Staff Accounting Bulletins have either been implemented, with no significant effect, or are not applicable to the Company.

Forward-Looking Statements

Our business, financial condition, results of operations, cash flows and prospects, and the prevailing market price and performance of our common stock, may be adversely affected by a number of factors, including the matters discussed below. Certain statements and information set forth in this Annual Report on Form 10-K, as well as other written or oral statements made from time to time by us or by our authorized executive officers on our behalf, constitute “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the Federal Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. These statements include all statements other than those made solely with respect to historical fact and identified by words such as “believes”, “anticipates”, “expects”, “intends” and similar expressions, but such words are not the exclusive means of identifying such statements. We intend for our forward-looking statements to be covered by the safe harbor provisions for forward-looking statements contained in the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, and we set forth this statement and these risk factors in order to comply with such safe harbor provisions. You should note that our forward-looking statements speak only as of the date of this Annual Report on Form 10-K or when made and we undertake no duty or obligation to update or revise our forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise. Although we believe that the expectations, plans, intentions and projections reflected in our forward-looking statements are reasonable, such statements are subject to known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors that may cause our actual results, performance or achievements to be materially different from any future results, performance or achievements expressed or implied by the forward-looking statements. The risks, uncertainties and other factors that our stockholders and prospective investors should consider include, but are not limited to, the following:

·	Because our business is concentrated in the pharmaceutical industry any changes in that industry or in the markets we serve could impair our ability to generate revenue and realize a profit.

·	Puerto Rico government enacted ACT 74 of October 22, 2010 may affect the willingness of our customers to do business in Puerto Rico and consequently affect our business.

·	Changes in tax benefits may affect the willingness of companies to continue or expand their operations in Puerto Rico.

·	Puerto Rico’s economy, including its governmental financial crisis, may affect the willingness of businesses to commence or expand operations in Puerto Rico.

·	Other factors, including economic factors, may affect the decision of businesses to continue or expand their operations in the markets we serve.

·	Because our business is dependent upon a small number of clients, the loss of a major client could impair our ability to operate profitably.

·	Customer procurement and sourcing practices intended to reduce costs could have an adverse affect on our margins and profitability.

·	Since our business is dependent upon the development and enhancement of patented pharmaceutical products or processes by our clients, the failure of our clients to obtain and maintain patents could impair our ability to operate profitably.

·	We may be unable to pass on increased labor costs to our clients.

·	Consolidation in the pharmaceutical industry may have a harmful effect on our business.

·	Because the pharmaceutical industry is subject to government regulations, changes in government regulations relating to this industry may affect the need for our services.

·	If we are unable to protect our clients’ intellectual property, our ability to generate business will be impaired.

·	We may be subject to liability if our services or solutions for our clients infringe upon the intellectual property rights of others.

·	We may be held liable for the actions of our employees or contractors when on assignment.

·	To the extent that we perform services pursuant to fixed-price or incentive-based contracts, our cost of services may exceed our revenue on the contract.

·	Because most of our contracts may be terminated on little or no advance notice, our failure to generate new business could impair our ability to operate profitably.

·	Because we are dependent upon our management, our ability to develop our business may be impaired if we are not able to engage skilled personnel.

·	We may not be able to continue to grow unless we consummate acquisitions or enter markets outside of Puerto Rico, the United States and Ireland.

-22-

·	If we identify a proposed acquisition, we may require substantial cash to fund the cost of the acquisition.

·	If we make any acquisitions, they may disrupt or have a negative impact on our business.

·	Because there is a limited market in our common stock, stockholders may have difficulty in selling our common stock and our common stock may be subject to significant price swings.

·	Our revenues, operating results and profitability will vary from quarter to quarter, which may result in increased volatility of our stock price.

·	The issuance of securities, whether in connection with an acquisition or otherwise, may result in significant dilution to our stockholders.

ITEM 9A. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES.

Management’s Annual Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate “internal control over financial reporting,” as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act, for the Company. This rule defines internal control over financial reporting as a process designed by, or under the supervision of, a company’s chief executive officer and chief financial officer, to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. Our internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that:

•

pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company;

•

provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and

•

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, our internal control systems and procedures may not prevent or detect misstatements. An internal control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met. Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, have been detected. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risks that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies and procedures may deteriorate.

-23-

We, under the supervision of and with the participation of our management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, assessed the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of October 31, 2011, based on criteria for effective internal control over financial reporting described in “Internal Control — Integrated Framework” issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission. Based on this assessment, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that the Company maintained effective internal control over financial reporting as of October 31, 2011, based on the specified criteria.

Disclosure Controls and Procedures.

We carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e)) as of the end of the period covered by this Annual Report. Based upon that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of the end of the period covered by this Annual Report.

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

Based on an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, there has been no change in our internal control over financial reporting during our last fiscal quarter identified in connection with that evaluation that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

To the Board of Directors and Stockholders of

Pharma-Bio Serv, Inc.

Dorado, Puerto Rico

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Pharma-Bio Serv, Inc. as of October 31, 2011 and 2010, and the related consolidated statements of income, changes in stockholders’ equity, and cash flows for the years then ended. Pharma-Bio Serv, Inc.’s management is responsible for these financial statements. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated 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 audit 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 also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, 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 financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of Pharma-Bio Serv, Inc. as of October 31, 2011 and 2010, and the consolidated results of its operations and its cash flows for the years then ended in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Notes To Consolidated Financial Statements

For the Years Ended October 31, 2011 and 2010

NOTE A - ORGANIZATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

ORGANIZATION

Pharma-Bio Serv, Inc. (“Pharma-Bio”) is a Delaware corporation organized on January 14, 2004. Pharma-Bio is the parent company of Pharma-Bio Serv PR, Inc. (“Pharma-PR”), Pharma Serv, Inc. (“Pharma-Serv”) both Puerto Rico corporations, Pharma-Bio Serv US, Inc. (“Pharma-US”), a Delaware corporation, and Pharma-Bio Serv Validation & Compliance Limited (“Pharma-IR”), a majority owned Irish corporation. Pharma-Bio, Pharma-PR, Pharma-Serv, Pharma-US and Pharma-IR are collectively referred to as the “Company.” The Company operates in Puerto Rico, the United States and in Ireland under the name of Pharma-Bio Serv and is engaged in providing technical compliance consulting service, and microbiological and chemical laboratory testing services primarily to the pharmaceutical, chemical, medical device and biotechnology industries.

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Consolidation

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

Use of Estimates

The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America 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 consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. Actual results may differ from these estimates.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

Accounting standards have established a fair value hierarchy that requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. A financial instrument’s categorization within the fair value hierarchy is based upon the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. Accounting standards have established three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value:

Level 1 :	Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities.

Level 2 :	Observable inputs other than Level 1 prices such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities, quoted prices in markets with insufficient volume or infrequent transactions (less active markets), or model-derived valuations in which all significant inputs are observable or can be derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities.

Level 3 :	Prices or valuation techniques that require inputs that are both significant to the fair value measurement and unobservable (supported by little or no market activity).

F-7

Revenue Recognition

Revenue is primarily derived from: (1) time and materials contracts (representing approximately 94% of total revenues), which is recognized by applying the proportional performance model, whereby revenue is recognized as performance occurs, (2) short-term fixed-fee contracts or "not to exceed" contracts (representing approximately 2% of total revenues), which revenue is recognized similarly, except that certain milestones also have to be reached before revenue is recognized, and (3) laboratory testing revenue (representing approximately 4% of total revenues) is mainly recognized as the testing is completed and certified (normally within days of sample receipt from customer). If the Company determines that a contract will result in a loss, the Company recognizes the estimated loss in the period in which such determination is made.

Cash Equivalents

For purposes of the consolidated statements of cash flows, cash equivalents include investments in a money market obligations trust that is registered under the U.S. Investment Company Act of 1940 and liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less.

Marketable Securities

We consider our marketable security investment portfolio and marketable equity investments available-for-sale and, accordingly, these investments are recorded at fair value with unrealized gains and losses generally recorded in other comprehensive income; whereas realized gains and losses are included in earnings and determined based on the specific identification method.

Accounts Receivable

Accounts receivable are recorded at their estimated realizable value. Accounts are deemed past due when payment has not been received within the stated time period. The Company's policy is to review individual past due amounts periodically and write off amounts for which all collection efforts are deemed to have been exhausted. Due to the nature of the Company’s customers, bad debts are mainly accounted for using the direct write-off method whereby an expense is recognized only when a specific account is determined to be uncollectible. The effect of using this method approximates that of the allowance method.

Income Taxes

The Company follows an asset and liability approach method of accounting for income taxes. This method measures deferred income taxes by applying enacted statutory rates in effect at the balance sheet date to the differences between the tax basis of assets and liabilities and their reported amounts on the financial statements. The resulting deferred tax assets or liabilities are adjusted to reflect changes in tax laws as they occur. A valuation allowance is provided when it is more likely than not that a deferred tax asset will not be realized.

Property and Equipment

Owned property and equipment, and leasehold improvements are stated at cost. Equipment and vehicles under capital leases are stated at the lower of fair market value or net present value of the minimum lease payments at the inception of the leases. Depreciation and amortization of owned assets are provided for, when placed in service, in amount sufficient to relate the cost of depreciable assets to operations over their estimated service lives, using straight-line basis. Assets under capital leases and leasehold improvements are amortized, over the shorter of the estimated useful lives of the assets or initial lease term. Major renewals and betterments that extend the life of the assets are capitalized, while expenditures for repairs and maintenance are expensed when incurred.

F-8

The Company evaluates for impairment its long-lived assets to be held and used, and long-lived assets to be disposed of, whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Based on management estimates, no impairment of the operating properties was present.

Intangible Assets

Definite-lived intangible assets, such as customer lists and covenants not to compete, are amortized on a straight-line basis over their estimated useful lives. The Company continually evaluates the reasonableness of the useful lives of these assets.

Stock-based Compensation

Stock-based compensation expense is recognized in the consolidated financial statements based on the fair value of the awards granted. Stock-based compensation cost is measured at the grant date based on the fair value of the award and is recognized as expense over the requisite service period, which generally represents the vesting period, and includes an estimate of awards that will be forfeited. The Company calculates the fair value of stock options using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model at grant date. Excess tax benefits related to stock-based compensation are reflected as cash flows from financing activities rather than cash flows from operating activities. The Company has not recognized such cash flow from financing activities since there has been no tax benefit related to the stock-based compensation.

Income Per Share of Common Stock

Basic income per share of common stock is calculated dividing net income by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding. Diluted income per share includes the dilution of common stock equivalents.

The diluted weighted average shares of common stock outstanding were calculated using the treasury stock method for the respective periods.

Foreign Operations

The functional currency of the Company’s foreign subsidiary is its local currency. The assets and liabilities of the Company’s foreign subsidiary are translated into U.S. dollars at exchange rates in effect at the balance sheet date. Income and expense items are translated at the average exchange rates prevailing during the period. The cumulative translation effect for subsidiaries using a functional currency other than the U.S. dollar is included as a cumulative translation adjustment in stockholders’ equity and as a component of comprehensive income.

The Company’s intercompany accounts are typically denominated in the functional currency of the foreign subsidiary. Gains and losses resulting from the remeasurement of intercompany receivables that the Company considers to be of a long-term investment nature are recorded as a cumulative translation adjustment in stockholders’ equity and as a component of comprehensive income, while gains and losses resulting from the remeasurement of intercompany receivables from those international subsidiaries for which the Company anticipates settlement in the foreseeable future are recorded in the consolidated statements of operations. The net gains and losses recorded in the consolidated statements of income were not significant for the periods presented.

Subsequent Events

Other than the disclosures provided under Stock Options and Stock Based Compensation NOTE I, and Concentration of Risk NOTE-J to the consolidated financial statements, the Company has determined that there are no events occurring in this period that required disclosure in or adjustment to the accompanying consolidated financial statements.

Reclassifications

Certain reclassifications have been made to the October 31, 2010 consolidated financial statements to conform them to the October 31, 2011 consolidated financial statements presentation. Such reclassifications do not have effect on net income as previously reported.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

Recent issued FASB guidance and SEC Staff Accounting Bulletins have either been implemented, with no significant effect, or are not applicable to the Company.

F-9

NOTE B – MARKETABLE SECURITIES AVAILABLE FOR SALE

At October 31, 2011 and 2010, the marketable securities of $95,000 consisted of a 5.4% Puerto Rico Commonwealth Government Development Bank Bond, purchased at par and maturing in August 2019. The bond balance approximates its fair market value, therefore no realized or unrealized gains or losses have been recorded.

The primary objectives of the Company’s investment portfolio are liquidity and safety of principal. Investments are made with the objective of achieving the highest rate of return consistent with these two objectives. Our investment policy limits investments to certain types of debt and money market instruments issued by institutions primarily with investment grade credit ratings and places restrictions on maturities and concentration by type and issuer.

We review our available-for-sale securities for other-than-temporary declines in fair value below their cost basis on a quarterly basis and whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the cost basis of an asset may not be recoverable. This evaluation is based on a number of factors including, the length of time and extent to which the fair value has been less than our cost basis and adverse conditions specifically related to the security including any changes to the rating of the security by a rating agency. As of October 31, 2011, we believe that the cost base for our available-for-sale securities is recoverable in all material respects.

NOTE C - PROPERTY AND EQUIPMENT

The balance of property and equipment at October 31, 2011 and 2010 consisted of the following:

		October 31,
	Useful life (years)	2011			2010

NOTE D - OTHER ASSETS

At October 31, 2011 and 2010 non-current other assets included the following:

	October 31,
Intangible assets:	2011		2010
Covenant not to compete (Pharma-PR acquisition), net of accumulated amortization of $100,000 and $98,334 in October 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively	$	-	$	1,666
Covenant not to compete (Integratek acquisition), net of accumulated amortization of $48,611 and $31,944 in October 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively		1,389		18,056
Total intangible assets net of amortization		1,389		19,722
Other assets		26,917		13,642
Total non-current other assets	$	28,306	$	33,364

Covenant not to compete (Pharma-PR acquisition) represents the portion of the payment made in connection with the purchase of the Pharma-PR stock that was allocated to a non-competition covenant. Under this agreement, the then sole stockholder of Pharma-PR agreed not to compete with the Company for a period of five years. The covenant not to compete of $100,000 was amortized on the straight-line method over the five-year term of the non-competition covenant.

F-10

Covenant not to compete (Integratek acquisition) represents the portion of the payment allocated to a non-competition covenant pursuant to the purchase of operations and assets of Integratek, an information technology consulting firm based in Puerto Rico. Under the agreement, the stockholders of Integratek agreed not to compete with the Company for a period of three years. The covenant not to compete of $50,000 is amortized on the straight-line method over the three-year term of the non-competition covenant.

Intangible assets amortization expense for the years ended on October 31, 2011 and 2010 amounted to $18,333 and $36,667, respectively.

NOTE E - INCOME TAXES

In June 2011, Pharma-Bio, Pharma-PR and Pharma-Serv obtained a new Grant of Industrial Tax Exemption pursuant to the terms and conditions set forth in Act No. 73 of May 28, 2008 (“Act 73 Grant”) issued by the Puerto Rico Industrial Development Company (“PRIDCO”). The Act 73 Grant is effective as of the Company’s Fiscal Year 2010 (November 1, 2009) and covers a fifteen year period. As a condition to obtaining the new grant, the Company surrendered its prior grant obtained on July 2008 for Pharma-Bio and Pharma-PR, which was granted under Act No. 135 of December 2, 1997 (“Act 135 Grant”). The Act 73 Grant provides relief on various Puerto Rico taxes, including income tax, with certain limitations for most of the activities carried on within Puerto Rico, including those that are for services to parties located outside of Puerto Rico. Both grants established a threshold (“Baseline”) on the Industrial Development Income (“IDI”) subject to the favorable income tax rates. The Baselines of activities covered under the Act 135 Grant were reduced with the Act 73 Grant; also the new Baselines are now gradually reduced to zero within a four year term. In addition, income tax rates “under” and “above” the new Baselines were significantly reduced in the Act 73 Grant. New activities covered under the new Act 73 Grant are not subject to a Baseline and are allowed a four year gradual phase-in to the favorable fixed Act 73 income tax rate. In addition, IDI earnings distributions accumulated since November 1, 2009 are totally exempt from Puerto Rico earnings distribution tax.

For fiscal year 2011 the various activities covered by the Act 73 Grant were subject to different reduced effective income tax rates for a net aggregate effective income tax rate of 5.5%. Prospectively, by fiscal year 2013 all activities covered under the Act 73 Grant will be subject to the Act 73 reduced fixed income tax rate of 4%, since the gradual phase-in of the fixed income tax rate will be completed and the Baselines will have been reduced to zero.

The adoption of the Act 73 Grant in fiscal year 2011 triggered a favorable non-recurring adjustment to fiscal year 2011 income tax expense in the aggregate amount of approximately $200,000, which is attributable to fiscal year 2010 because of the retroactive nature of Act 73 Grant effective date to November 1, 2009. The non-recurring adjustment had the aggregate effect of increasing earnings per share basic and diluted by $0.010 and $0.009, respectively. Furthermore, approximately $700,000 in savings were obtained in fiscal year 2011 alone, and had the effect of increasing earnings per share basic and diluted by $0.043 and $0.031, respectively.

Puerto Rico operations not covered in the exempt activities of the Grants are subject to Puerto Rico income tax at a maximum tax rate of 39% as provided by the 1994 Puerto Rico Internal Revenue Code, as amended. This maximum rate was subsequently reduced to 30% by the 2011 Puerto Rico Internal Revenue Code, which is effective to the Company on November 1, 2011. The operations carried out in the United States by the Company’s subsidiary are taxed in the United States at a maximum regular federal income tax rate of 35%.

Also, upon distribution of earnings by the Puerto Rican subsidiaries to its parent those dividends are taxed at the federal level, however, the parent is able to receive a credit for the taxes paid by the subsidiary on its operations in Puerto Rico, to the extent of the federal taxes that result from those earnings. As a result, the income tax expense of the Company, under its present corporate structure, would normally be the Puerto Rico taxes on operations in Puerto Rico, federal taxes on operations in the United States, plus the earnings distribution tax in Puerto Rico from dividends paid to the Puerto Rican subsidiaries’ parent, and the parent’s federal income tax, if any, incurred upon the subsidiary’s earnings distribution.

Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are computed for differences between the consolidated financial statements and tax bases of assets and liabilities that will result in taxable or deductible amounts in the future, based on enacted tax laws and rates applicable to the periods in which the differences are expected to affect taxable income.

F-11

As of October 31, 2011 and 2010, the Company has not recognized deferred income taxes on $7,051,084 and $4,701,249 of undistributed earnings of its Puerto Rican subsidiaries, respectively, since such earnings are considered to be reinvested indefinitely. If the earnings were distributed in the form of dividends, the Company would be subject to Puerto Rico earnings distribution tax and United States federal income tax for the aggregate amount of approximately $1,110,000 and $520,000 at October 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively.

The reconciliation between the United States federal statutory rate and our effective tax rate for the years ended October 31, 2011, and 2010 is as follows:

	October 31,
	2011			2010
United States federal statutory rate		35.0	%		35.0	%
Non United States earnings invested indefinitely, and Puerto Rico Act 73Tax Grant effect in 2011		(18.6	)%		5.5	%
Puerto Rico Act 73 Tax Grant effective date backdating for fiscal year 2010		( 5.9	)%		-
Other, net		( 1.7	)%		( 0.4	)%
Effective tax rate		8.8	%		40.1	%

At October 31, 2011, Pharma-IR has unused operating losses of approximately $341,000 (with no expiration) after considering various timing differences for income tax purposes, which result in a potential deferred tax asset of approximately $43,000. However, an allowance has been provided covering the total amount of such balance since it is uncertain whether the net operating losses can be used to offset future taxable income. Realization of future tax benefits related to a deferred tax asset is dependent on many factors, including the company’s ability to generate taxable income. Accordingly, the income tax benefit will be recognized when realization is determined to be more probable than not. These net operating losses are available to offset future taxable income indefinitely.

The Company files income tax returns in the U.S. in federal and various states jurisdictions, Puerto Rico and Ireland. The 2006 through 2011 tax years are open and may be subject to potential examination in one or more jurisdictions. Pharma-Bio's fiscal year 2008 federal income tax return is currently under examination by the United States Internal Revenue Service. It is management belief that deficiencies assessed, if any, will not be significant to the Company's financial statements. Currently, the Company has no other federal, state, Puerto Rico or foreign income tax examination.

NOTE F – COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

Capitalized lease obligations - The Company leases vehicles under non-cancelable capital lease agreements with a cost of $167,363 and $90,888 (accumulated amortization of $52,608 and $25,508) as of October 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively. Amortization expense for vehicles under non-cancelable lease agreements amounted to $27,100 and $22,401 in the years ended October 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively.

The following is a schedule, by year, of future minimum lease payments under the capitalized leases together with the present value of the net minimum lease payments at October 31, 2011:

F-12

Present value of future minimum lease payments		123,379
Current portion of obligation under capital leases		(31,142	)
Long-term portion	$	92,237

Operating facilities - The Company conducts its administrative operations in office facilities which are leased under three different rental agreements.

In February 2007, the Company entered into a lease agreement with an affiliate of the chief executive officer for the headquarters and laboratory testing facilities in Dorado, Puerto Rico. The lease agreement is for a term of five years with monthly rental payments of $18,750, $19,687, $20,672, $21,705 and $22,791 for each of the years under the lease. The initial lease agreement term ends in January 2012, and was renewed under the automatic five year-renewal option, which provides yearly increments of five percent. The agreement also requires the payment of utilities, property taxes, insurance and a portion of expenses incurred by the affiliate in connection with the maintenance of common areas.

Effective November 2011, the Company renegotiated with the landlord the lease for the US office facilities located in Plymouth, Pennsylvania. This three-year term lease was due to expire in February 2013 and had $2,100 in monthly rental payments. Under the renegotiation the original lease was cancelled and a new lease was executed for a larger and better located facility, also in Plymouth, Pennsylvania. The new lease is for a five-year term with monthly rental payments of $6,282 for the first three years. Thereafter the lease will increase four percent every year, including a five-year renewal option, if executed.

The Company maintains office facilities in Cork, Ireland. The facilities are under a month-to-month lease with monthly payments of approximately $900.

The Company leases certain apartments as dwellings for employees. The leases are under short-term lease agreements and usually are cancelable upon 30-day notification.

Minimum future rental payments under non-cancelable operating leases having remaining terms in excess of one year as of October 31, 2011 are as follows:

	Amount
2012	$	359,127
2013		373,314
2014		388,211
2015		406,867
2016		426,427
Thereafter		87,262
Total minimum lease payments	$	2,041,208

Rent expense during the years ended October 31, 2011 and 2010 was $293,687 and $316,673, respectively.

Contingencies - In the ordinary course of business, the Company may be a party to legal proceedings incidental to the business. These proceedings are not expected to have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business or financial condition.

For the year ended in October 31, 2010, warrants for the purchase of 7,999,400 shares of common stock were not included in computing diluted earnings per share because their effects were antidilutive. In addition, options for the purchase of 374,585 and 1,267,882 shares of common stock for the years ended in October 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively, were not included in computing diluted earnings per share because their effects were also antidilutive.

NOTE I - STOCK OPTIONS AND STOCK BASED COMPENSATION

In October 2005, the Company's board of directors adopted, and on April 25, 2006, the Company’s stockholders approved, the 2005 Long-Term Incentive Plan, covering 2,500,000 shares of common stock. The 2005 plan provides for the grant of incentive and non-qualified options, stock grants, stock appreciation rights and other equity-based incentives to employees, including officers, consultants and directors. The 2005 plan is to be administered by a committee of independent directors. In the absence of a committee, the plan is administered by the board of directors. Options intended to be incentive stock options must be granted at an exercise price per share which is not less than the fair market value of the common stock on the date of grant and may have a term which is not longer than ten years. If the option holder holds at least 10% of the Company’s common stock, the exercise price must be at least 110% of the fair market value on the date of grant and the term of the option cannot exceed five years.

The Company recognizes stock-based compensation based on the fair value of the awards. Stock-based compensation cost is measured at the grant date based on the fair value of the award and is recognized as expense over the requisite service period, which generally represents the vesting period, and includes an estimate of awards that will be forfeited.

The following table presents the stock-based compensation included in the Company’s consolidated statement of income and the effect in earnings per share:

	Year ended October 31,
	2011			2010
Stock-based compensation expense:
Cost of services	$	-		$	1,846
Selling, general and administrative		8,664			41,532
Stock-based compensation before tax		8,664			43,378
Income tax benefit		-			-
Net stock-based compensation expense	$	8,664		$	43,378
Effect on earnings per share:
Basic earnings per share	$	(0.001	)	$	(0.002	)
Diluted earnings per share	$	(0.001	)	$	(0.002	)

As of October 31, 2011, estimated stock based compensation expense to be recognized in future periods for granted nonvested stock options amounted to approximately $3,000. These nonvested stock options compensation expense will be recognized in a weighted average period of approximately 0.5 years.

In January 2012, in accordance with the Company's Long-Term Incentive Plan, the Company's Compensation Committee granted a total of 800,000 stock option awards to employees and executives.

F-15

The fair value of stock-based awards to employees is calculated using the Black-Scholes option pricing model. The Black-Scholes model requires subjective assumptions, including future stock price volatility and expected time to exercise, which greatly affect the calculated values. The expected term of the option has been estimated using the “simplified” method as provided in Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 107. Under this method, the expected term equals the arithmetic average of the vesting term and the contractual term of the option. The risk-free rate is based on the U.S. Treasury rates in effect during the corresponding period of grant. The expected volatility is based on the historical volatility of the Company’s stock price. These factors could change in the future, which would affect fair values of stock options granted in such future periods, and could cause volatility in the total amount of the stock-based compensation expense reported in future periods.

The following weighted average assumptions were used to estimate the fair value of stock options granted for the years ended October 31, 2011 and 2010:

	Year ended October 31,
	2011			2010
Expected dividend yield		0.0	%		0.0	%
Expected stock price volatility		74.3	%		135.2	%
Risk free interest rate		1.0	%		1.5	%
Expected life of options	3.2 years			3.2 years
Weighted average fair value of options granted	$	0.1299		$	0.2552

As of October 31, 2011, the aggregate intrinsic value of options outstanding was approximately $91,000. The aggregate intrinsic value represents the difference between the Company’s stock price at year end and the exercise price, multiplied by the number of in-the money options had all option holders exercised their options. This amount changes based on the fair market value of the Company’s stock. For the years ended October 31, 2011 and 2010, no stock options were exercised.

NOTE J - CONCENTRATION OF RISKS

Cash and cash equivalents

Domestic cash deposits are maintained in a FDIC insured bank and in a money market obligations trust, registered under the US Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended. A major portion of our cash deposits are within noninterest bearing bank accounts which have FDIC unlimited insurance coverage until December 2012. Other operational bank deposit balances may exceed federally insured limits for interest-bearing bank accounts. Operational cash deposits in foreign banks of the markets we serve tend to be not significant and have no specific insurance. No losses have been experienced or are expected on these accounts.

Accounts receivable and revenues

Management deems all its accounts receivable to be fully collectible, and, as such, does not maintain any allowances for uncollectible receivables.

The Company's revenues, and the related receivables, are concentrated in the pharmaceutical industry in Puerto Rico, the United States of America and Ireland. Although few customers represent a significant source of revenue, the Company’s functions are not a continuous process, accordingly, the client base for which the services are typically rendered, on a project-by-project basis, changes regularly.

The Company provided a substantial portion of its services to three customers, who accounted for 10% or more of its revenues in either of the years ended October 31, 2011 or 2010. During the year ended October 31, 2011 revenues from these customers were 18%, 15% and 14%, or a total of 47%, as compared to the same period last year for 1%, 21% and 15%, or a total of 37%, respectively. At October 31, 2011 and 2010 amounts due from these customers represented 35% and 30% of total accounts receivable balance, respectively.

F-16

In December 2011, a customer vendor management program administrator, who is also a competitor of ours, for a major customer of Pharma-IR which represented 15% of the Company’s total consolidated revenue for fiscal year 2011, communicated its intent to place Pharma-IR in a probation/review period of approximately eight weeks starting at some point of time on January 2012. Among others, the administrator requested the decrease of billable margins to an already reduced billing structure and the level of service be improved. Based on the administrator’s communication, Pharma-IR will have to accept the proposed billing structure and present a plan for operational improvements. The final outcome and the eventual financial impact to the Company, if any, are uncertain at this point of time.

NOTE K - RETIREMENT PLAN

Pharma-PR has a qualified profit sharing plan in accordance with the provision of Section l165(a)(3)(A) of the Puerto Rico Code, for employees who meet certain age and service period requirements. The Company makes contributions to this plan as required by the provisions of the plan document. Following plan provisions, the Company temporarily suspended contributions to the plan since fiscal year 2009.

NOTE L - SEGMENT DISCLOSURES

The Company’s segments are based on the organizational structure for which financial results are regularly evaluated by the Company’s chief operating decision maker to determine resource allocation and assess performance. Each reportable segment is managed by its own management team and reports to executive management. The Company has four reportable segments: (i) Puerto Rico technical compliance consulting, (ii) United States technical compliance consulting, (iii) Ireland technical compliance consulting, and (iv) a Puerto Rico microbiological and chemical laboratory testing division (“Lab”). These reportable segments provide services primarily to the pharmaceutical, chemical, medical device and biotechnology industries in their respective markets.

The following table presents information about the reported revenue from services and earnings from operations of the Company for the year ended in October 31, 2011 and 2010. There is no intersegment revenue for the mentioned periods. Corporate expenses that support the operating units have been allocated to the segments. Asset information by reportable segment is not presented, since the Company does not produce such information internally, nor does it use such data to manage its business.

¹	Other segments represent activities that fall below the reportable threshold and are carried out in Puerto and United States. These activities include a technical seminars/training division, an information technology services and consulting division, and corporate headquarters, as applicable.

Long lived assets (property and equipment and intangible assets) and related depreciation and amortization expense for the year ended October 31, 2011 and 2010, were concentrated in the domestic markets (Puerto Rico and United States). The aggregate amount of long lived assets for the international operations (Ireland) is considered insignificant.
