PART I.

Item 1.
Description of Business

Organization

Greystone Logistics, Inc. (“Greystone” or the “Company”) was incorporated in Delaware on February 24, 1969, under the name Permaspray Manufacturing Corporation.  It changed its name to Browning Enterprises Inc. in April 1982, to Cabec Energy Corp. in June 1993, to PalWeb Corporation in April 1999 and became Greystone Logistics, Inc. in March 2005 as further described below.

In December 1997, Greystone acquired all of the issued and outstanding stock of Plastic Pallet Production, Inc., a Texas corporation (“PPP”), and since that time, Greystone has primarily been engaged in the business of manufacturing and selling plastic pallets.

Effective September 8, 2003, Greystone acquired substantially all of the assets of Greystone Plastics, Inc., an Iowa corporation, through the purchase of such assets by Greystone’s newly formed, wholly-owned subsidiary, Greystone Manufacturing, L.L.C., an Oklahoma limited liability company (“GSM”).  Greystone Plastics, Inc. was a manufacturer of plastic pallets used in the beverage industry.

Effective March 18, 2005, the Company caused its newly formed, wholly owned subsidiary, Greystone Logistics, Inc., an Oklahoma corporation, to be merged with and into the Company.  In connection with such merger and as of the effective time of the merger, the Company amended its certificate of incorporation by changing its name to Greystone Logistics, Inc., pursuant to the terms of the certificate of ownership and merger filed by the Company with the Secretary of State of Oklahoma.  Also in connection with such merger, the Company amended its bylaws to change its name to Greystone Logistics, Inc.

Recent Transactions

On February 7, 2007, GSM entered into a Purchase Agreement and Bill of Sale with Yorktown Management & Financial Services, LLC, an Oklahoma limited liability company that is wholly owned by the Company’s CEO and President (“Yorktown”), pursuant to which Yorktown purchased GSM’s existing finished goods inventory (including certain Coors Brewing inventory) and certain of GSM’s raw materials, grinding and peripheral equipment, resin contracts and molds for a total purchase price of $2.2 million.  In connection with the Purchase Agreement, GSM and Yorktown entered into a Pallet Molds Lease Agreement, whereby for a period of seven years, Yorktown will lease back to GSM the molds and resin equipment purchased from GSM at the lease rate of $1.00 per pallet manufactured using the molds and $0.03 per pound of resin provided using the resin equipment.  The assets sold pursuant to the Purchase Agreement were sold to Yorktown at their fair market value and the transactions described above were approved by the disinterested member of the Company’s Board of Directors.  For more information regarding these transactions, see the Company’s Current Report on Form 8-K dated February 7, 2007, filed with the SEC on February 27, 2007.

On February 8, 2007, Greystone entered into a Settlement Agreement and Release with 1607 Commerce Limited Partnership, a Texas limited partnership, which subsequently changed its name to Commerce Plastics L.P. (“Commerce”).  Pursuant to the Settlement Agreement and in exchange for full, final and complete settlement of any and all claims that Commerce has asserted, or could have asserted, in its lawsuit regarding an alleged default in the payment of rent pursuant to terms of the Equipment Lease (defined below) and the enforcement of certain related guaranties, the Company agreed to (i) to pay outstanding rental accruals by Greystone to Commerce of $1,048,000.00, (ii) make monthly payments to Commerce of $24,000.00 for a term of 24 months commencing March 1, 2007, which payments can be used towards the purchase price of pallets purchased from Commerce as further described below, (iii) transfer to Commerce 2,000,000 shares of the Company’s common stock, and (iv) enter into an agreement with Commerce whereby, among other things, Commerce will be given floor space, utilities and regrind resin in the Company’s Iowa facility and the Company will be required to purchase up to 200,000 Granada pallets at $8.00 per pallet and 200,000 nestable pallets at $3.00 per pallet from Commerce over a two year term.  Also pursuant to the Settlement Agreement, the monthly payments to be made by the Company will be credited against the purchase price of any Granada pallets purchased from Commerce; provided, however, Commerce is not obligated to produce any pallets, but has agreed to use it best efforts to do so. The Settlement Agreement also included an immediate termination of that certain equipment lease dated as of September 8, 2003, by and between Commerce and PPP (the “Equipment Lease”), whereby the registrant leased, for a term of 130 months commencing September 8, 2003, at a rate of $48,000 per month, certain equipment that was previously used to produce its pallets.  For more information regarding these transactions, see the Company’s Current Report on Form 8-K dated February 7, 2007, filed with the SEC on February 27, 2007.

Current Business

Products

Greystone’s primary business is manufacturing and selling high quality, recycled plastic pallets through its wholly owned subsidiary GSM.  In addition, through its other subsidiary PPP, Greystone sells plastic pallets it purchased from Commerce as further described above.  As of May 31, 2008, Greystone had an aggregate production capacity of approximately 70,000 pallets per month.

GSM’s product line as of May 31, 2008 consists of the following:

·  
40” X 32” rackable pallet,

·  
37” X 37” rackable pallet,
   
·  
37” X 32” rackable pallet,

 
5

·  
48” X 40” rackable pallet,

·  
48” X 44” rackable pallet, and

·  
48” X 40” nestable pallet

As of May 31, 2008, GSM was marketing the following pallets produced or capable of being produced by Commerce:

·  
Mid-Duty(TM) Picture Frame – A picture frame, web-top pallet that utilizes a patented inter-locking design and is produced using a proprietary blend of recycled plastics.  It has a rackable capacity of 1,500 lbs., a dynamic load of 5,000 lbs., static load of 25,000 lbs., and weighs 50 lbs.

·  
Mid-Duty(TM) Stackable – A web-top pallet that is produced using a proprietary blend of recycled plastics, has a dynamic load of 5,000 lbs., static load of 7,000 lbs., and weighs 30 lbs.

·  
Mid-Duty(TM) 3-Runner – A web-top pallet that utilizes a patented inter-locking design on a three runner bottom and is produced using a proprietary blend of recycled plastics.  It has a rackable load of 1,200 lbs., dynamic load of 5,000 lbs., static load of 12,000 lbs and weighs 46 lbs.

·  
Flat Deck – This pallet is the same as the Mid-Duty,(TM) except it has a solid top and weighs 59 lbs.

The principal raw materials used in manufacturing Greystone’s plastic pallets are in abundant supply, and some of these materials may be obtained from recycled plastic containers. At the present time, these materials are being purchased from local, national and international suppliers. Damaged pallets repurchased from customers are also a source of raw material supply.

Other Business

In July 2006, Greystone entered into an agreement with Advanced Fiber Products (AFP) of La Crosse, Wisconsin, pursuant to which Greystone and AFP agreed to launch a beta test program involving the lease of a small pool of recycled plastic pallets by Greystone to AFP to be utilized by AFP to ship a portion of its manufactured products in a closed loop system.  Pursuant to the agreement, Greystone will deliver and track throughout the logistics cycle sufficient quantities of plastic pallets for use in shipping a segment of the AFP fiberglass product.  The pallets will stay in a closed loop environment and be continually sent back for reuse. If a pallet is damaged, Greystone will grind the pallet and reutilize the resin.

Pallet Industry

According to the U. S. Forest Service, as printed in the National Wooden Pallet and Container Association publication, approximately 400 million new pallets are purchased in the United States each year, and some research sources estimate that even more than 400 million new pallets are purchased each year.  At an overall average selling price of $9/wood pallet, the pallet manufacturing and sales business is approximately a $4 billion industry.  It is estimated that the United States wood pallet industry is served by approximately 3,600 companies, most of which are small, privately held firms that operate in only one location.  The industry is generally comprised of companies that manufacture new pallets or repair and recycle pallets.  New pallet manufacturing generates about 60% to 65% of the industry’s revenues.  The U.S. Forest Service estimates that approximately 1.9 billion wood pallets are in circulation in the United States today and that roughly 400 million of the wood pallets currently in circulation were newly manufactured.  On an annual basis, approximately 175 million wood pallets are recycled through a process of retrieval, repair, re-manufacturing and secondary marketing, approximately 225 million are sent to landfills, and approximately 100 million are burned, lost, abandoned or leave the country.

Infestation is a concern in the wood pallet industry.  According to Virginia Tech’s Center for Unit Loan Design Center Tech Note No. 1, dated November 11, 1998, the Asian Longhorn Beetle (“ALB”), a devastating wood boring pest native to China and other Asian countries, has invaded hardwood trees in New York City and Chicago.  The ALB outbreaks have been traced to solid wood packaging materials (“SWPM”), including wood pallets imported from China.  As a result, the USDA Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service has proposed certain interim rules, which include upgrading treatment procedures for SWPM.  These treatments are estimated to increase the cost of SWPM by at least 10%, and some treatments will double the price of SWPM.

Pallets are used in virtually all United States industries in which products are broadly distributed, including, but not limited to, the automotive, chemical, consumer products, grocery, produce and food production, paper and forest products, retailing and steel and metals industries.  Forklifts, pallet trucks and pallet jacks are used to move loaded pallets, reducing the need for costly hand loading and unloading at distribution centers and warehouses.

Until very recently, plastic pallets had not penetrated the market significantly, due in part to their cost.  Heavy duty plastic pallets cost $46 to $100, heavy duty wood pallets typically cost approximately $26, and less sturdy wood pallets typically cost $8 to $11.  As stated in an article in the July 1996 issue of Material Handling Engineering, wood pallets have an estimated useful life of 7 to 10 trips before repair or recycling is required.  A trip, or cycle, is defined as the movement of a pallet under a load from a manufacturer to a distributor (or from a distributor to a retailer) and the movement of the empty pallet back to the manufacturer.  Heavy duty plastic pallets, as currently manufactured, have a useful life of 60 or more trips, on average.  Greystone management believes that the trend will continue to switch from wood to plastic, with the only limiting factor being price.

Greystone intends to conduct research on pallet design strength and coefficient of friction and the materials used to make the plastic pallets as required to meet market demands.

Employees

As of May 31, 2008, Greystone had 85 full-time employees and used a temporary personnel service to provide additional production personnel as needed.

Marketing and Customers

Greystone’s primary focus is to provide quality plastic pallets to its existing customers while continuing its marketing efforts to broaden its customer base.  Greystone’s existing customers are primarily located in the United States and engaged in the beverage, pharmaceutical and other industries.  Greystone has generated and plans to continue to generate interest in its pallets by attending trade shows sponsored by industry segments that would benefit from Greystone’s products.  Greystone hopes to gain wider product acceptance by marketing the concept that the widespread use of plastic pallets could greatly reduce the destruction of trees on a worldwide basis.

As of May 31, 2008, Greystone sold its pallets through an exclusive arrangement with Decade Products whereby Decade sells Greystone’s pallets nationwide through direct sales and a network of independent contractor distributors.  Greystone also sells its pallets and pallet leasing services to certain large customers direct through its President, Senior Vice President of Sales and Marketing and other employees.

Greystone derives a substantial portion  of its revenue from two national brewers.  These two customers currently account for approximately 85% of orders for its pallets.  The design of Greystone’s recycled plastic pallets are approved for use by both breweries and are the only plastic pallets in use for case goods at the current time within their respective systems.  There is no assurance that Greystone will retain these customers’ business at the same level, or at all.  The loss of a material amount of business from any one of Greystone’s larger customers could have a material adverse effect on Greystone.

Competition

Greystone’s primary competitors are a large number of small, privately held firms that sell wood pallets in very limited geographic locations.  Greystone believes that it can compete with manufacturers of wood pallets by emphasizing the cost savings realized over the longer life of its plastic pallets as well as the environmental benefits of its plastic pallets as compared to wood pallets.  Greystone also competes with approximately three large and fifteen medium to small manufacturers of plastic pallets.  Some of Greystone’s competitors may have substantially greater financial and other resources than Greystone and, therefore, may be able to commit greater resources than Greystone in such areas of product development, manufacturing and marketing.  However, Greystone believes that its proprietary designs coupled with the competitive pricing of its products gives Greystone a competitive advantage over other plastic pallet manufacturers.

8

Government Regulation

The business operations of Greystone are subject to existing and potential federal, state and local environmental laws and regulations pertaining to the handling and disposition of wastes (including solid and hazardous wastes) or otherwise relating to the protection of the environment.  In addition, both the plastics industry and Greystone are subject to existing and potential federal, state, local and foreign legislation designed to reduce solid wastes by requiring, among other things, plastics to be degradable in landfills, minimum levels of recycled content, various recycling requirements, disposal fees and limits on the use of plastic products.

Patents and Trademarks

Greystone seeks to protect its technical advances by pursuing national and international patent protection for its products and methods when appropriate.

Greystone has access to a patent-pending CJ2(TM) fire retardant formula licensed from Westgate Capital Company, L.L.C. (“WCC”), a company of which Greystone’s President and CEO is a member, in connection with the potential production of fire retardant plastic pallets.  Pallets produced with CJ2(TM) fire retardant have met UL 2335 classification requirements with respect to fire retardancy.
 
 
Item 2.
Description of Property

Greystone has approximately 3 acres of land in Bettendorf, Iowa and two buildings with a total of 120,000 square feet of manufacturing and warehouse space.   The manufacturing and warehouse space is sufficiently equipped and designed to accommodate the manufacturing of plastic pallets and is currently used for grinding, processing and re-pelletizing recycled plastic.
 
 
Item 3.
Legal Proceedings

William Hamilton d/b/a WHACO, also d/b/a Greystone Bill Hamilton Trucking Company v. Greystone Manufacturing, LLC, Law No. 107023, Iowa District Court for Scott County.  William Hamilton, one of the former owners of Greystone Plastics, Inc., the entity from which Greystone purchased certain assets in 2003, claims $104,390 in damages for Greystone’s alleged breach of contract involving the provision of materials and services.  Greystone has denied all allegations and has asserted a counterclaim arising from the sale by Mr. Hamilton of the Bettendorf manufacturing facility to Greystone.  Discovery is continuing in this action and a trial date has been set in February 2009.

Item 6.
Management’s Discussion and Analysis or Plan of Operation

Cautionary Statement Regarding Forward-Looking Information

This Annual Report on Form 10-KSB includes “forward looking statements” as defined by the Securities and Exchange Commission.  These statements concern Greystone’s plans, expectations and objectives for future operations.  All statements, other than statements of historical facts, included in this Form 10-KSB that address activities, events or developments that Greystone expects, believes or anticipates will or may occur in the future are forward-looking statements.  The words “believe,” “plan,” “intend,” “anticipate,” “estimate,” “project” and similar expressions are intended to identify forward-looking statements.  These forward-looking statements include, among others, such things as:

•           expansion and growth of Greystone’s business and operations;
•           future financial performance;
•           future acquisitions and developments;
•           potential sales of products;
•           future financing activities; and
•           business strategy.

These forward-looking statements are based on assumptions that Greystone believes are reasonable based on current expectations and projections about future events and industry conditions and trends affecting Greystone’s business.  However, whether actual results and developments will conform to Greystone’s expectations and predictions is subject to a number of risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in the forward-looking statements, including those factors discussed under the section of this Form 10-KSB entitled “Risk Factors.”  In addition, Greystone’s historical financial performance is not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected in the future and Greystone believes that such comparisons cannot be relied upon as indicators of future performance.

11

Risk Factors

Greystone operates at a loss but has recently attained an operating profit and positive cash flow from operations.

The Company was incorporated on February 24, 1969.  From April 1993 to December 1997, the Company was engaged in various businesses, including the business of exploration, production, and development of oil and gas properties in the continental United States and the operation of a related service business.  In December 1997, the Company acquired all of the issued and outstanding stock of Plastic Pallet Production, Inc., and its principal business changed to selling plastic pallets.  Since such time, the Company has continued to incur losses from operations until the year ended May 31, 2008, when it showed an operating profit and positive cash flows.  There is no assurance that Greystone will continue to achieve a positive operating profit or otherwise obtain funds to finance continued operations.

Greystone’s financial statements have been qualified on a going concern basis and Greystone may not be able to secure additional financing necessary to sustain and grow its operations.

Greystone’s financial statements have been qualified on a going concern basis principally due to inability to historically generate operating income and lack of sufficient long term financing to achieve Greystone’s goal of producing and marketing plastic pallets to compete with wood pallets.  Greystone has funded its operations to date primarily through equity and debt financings but has recently achieved positive cash flow from operations.  Greystone may need to raise additional funds to implement any expansion strategy beyond current allocation of cash flow for capital projects.  There can be no assurance that additional financing will be available or, if available, that such financing will be on favorable terms or that Greystone will be able to maintain positive cash flow from operations.  Failure to obtain such additional financing could have a material adverse effect on Greystone.

Greystone has granted security interests in substantially all of its assets in connection with certain debt financings and other transaction.

In connection with certain debt financings and other transactions, Greystone has granted third parties security interests in substantially all of its assets pursuant to agreements entered into with such third parties.  Upon the occurrence of an event of default under such agreements, the secured parties may enforce their rights and Greystone may lose all or a portion of its assets.  As a result, Greystone could be forced to materially reduce its business activities or cease operations.

Greystone’s business could be affected by changes in availability of raw materials.

Greystone uses a proprietary mix of raw materials to produce its plastic pallets.  Such raw materials are generally readily available and some may be obtained from a broad range of  recycled plastic suppliers and unprocessed waste plastic.  The availability of Greystone’s raw materials could change at any time for various reasons.  For example, the market demand for Greystone’s raw
12

materials could suddenly increase, or the rate at which plastic materials are recycled could decrease, affecting both availability and price.  Additionally, the laws and regulations governing the production of plastics and the recycling of plastic containers could change and, as a result, affect the supply of Greystone’s raw materials.  Any interruption in the supply of raw materials or components could have a material adverse effect on Greystone.  Furthermore, certain potential alternative suppliers may have pre-existing exclusive relationships with Greystone’s competitors and others that may preclude Greystone from obtaining raw materials from such suppliers.

Greystone’s business could be affected by competition and rapid technological change.

Greystone currently faces competition from many companies that produce wooden pallets at prices that are substantially lower than the prices Greystone charges for its plastic pallets and other companies that manufacture plastic pallets.  It is anticipated that the plastic pallet industry will be subject to intense competition and rapid technological change.  Greystone could potentially face additional competition from recycling and plastics companies, many of which have substantially greater financial and other resources than Greystone and, therefore, are able to spend more than Greystone in areas such as product development, manufacturing and marketing.  Competitors may develop products that render Greystone’s products or proposed products uneconomical or result in products being commercialized that may be superior to Greystone’s products.  In addition, alternatives to plastic pallets could be developed, which would have a material adverse effect on Greystone.

Greystone is dependent on a few large customers.

Greystone derives, and expect that in the foreseeable future it will continue to derive, a large portion of its revenue from a few large customers.  In fact, two of Greystone’s customers currently account for approximately 75% of sales.  There is no assurance that Greystone will retain these customers’ business at the same level, or at all.  The loss of a material amount of business from any one of these customers could have a material adverse effect on Greystone’s operating results.

Greystone may not be able to effectively protect Greystone’s patents and proprietary rights.

Greystone relies upon a combination of patents and trade secrets to protect its proprietary technology, rights and know-how.  There can be no assurance that such patent rights will not be infringed upon, that Greystone’s trade secrets will not otherwise become known to or independently developed by competitors, that non-disclosure agreements will not be breached, or that Greystone would have adequate remedies for any such infringement or breach.  Litigation may be necessary to enforce Greystone’s proprietary rights or to defend Greystone against third-party claims of infringement.  Such litigation could result in substantial cost to, and a diversion of effort by, Greystone and its management and may have a material adverse effect on Greystone.  Greystone’s success and potential competitive advantage is dependent upon its ability to exploit the technology under these patents.  There can be no assurance that Greystone will be able to exploit the technology covered by these patents or that Greystone will be able to do so exclusively.
13

Greystone’s business could be affected by changing or new legislation regarding environmental matters.

Greystone’s business is subject to changing federal, state and local environmental laws and regulations pertaining to the discharge of materials into the environment, the handling and disposition of wastes (including solid and hazardous wastes) or otherwise relating to the protection of the environment.  As is the case with manufacturers in general, if a release of hazardous substances occurs on or from Greystone’s properties or any associated off-site disposal location, or if contamination from prior activities is discovered at any of Greystone’s properties, Greystone may be held liable.  No assurances can be given that additional environmental issues will not require future expenditures.  In addition, both the plastics industry and Greystone are subject to existing and potential federal, state, local and foreign legislation designed to reduce solid wastes by requiring, among other things, plastics to be degradable in landfills, minimum levels of recycled content, various recycling requirements and disposal fees and limits on the use of plastic products.  In addition, various consumer and special interest groups have lobbied from time to time for the implementation of these and other such similar measures.  Although Greystone believes that the legislation promulgated to date and such initiatives to date have not had a material adverse effect on it, there can be no assurance that any such future legislative or regulatory efforts or future initiatives would not have a material adverse effect.

Greystone’s business could be subject to potential product liability claims.

The testing, manufacturing and marketing of Greystone’s products and proposed products involve inherent risks related to product liability claims or similar legal theories that may be asserted against Greystone, some of which may cause Greystone to incur significant defense costs.  Although Greystone currently maintains product liability insurance coverage that it believes is adequate, there can be no assurance that the coverage limits of its insurance will be adequate under all circumstances or that all such claims will be covered by insurance.  In addition, these policies generally must be renewed every year.  While Greystone has been able to obtain product liability insurance in the past, there can be no assurance it will be able to obtain such insurance in the future on all of its existing or future products.  A successful product liability claim or other judgment against Greystone in excess of its insurance coverage, or the loss of Greystone’s product liability insurance coverage, could have a material adverse effect upon Greystone.

Greystone currently depends on certain key personnel.

Greystone is dependent on the experience, abilities and continued services of its current management.  In particular, Warren Kruger, Greystone’s President and CEO, has played a significant role in the development, management and financing of Greystone.  The loss or reduction of services of Warren Kruger or any other key employee could have a material adverse effect on Greystone.  In addition, there is no assurance that additional managerial assistance will not be required, or that Greystone will be able to attract or retain such personnel.

Greystone’s executive officers and directors control a large percentage of Greystone’s outstanding common stock, which allows them to control matters submitted to Greystone’s shareholders for approval, and all of Greystone’s 2003 preferred stock, which entitles them to certain voting rights, including the right to elect a majority of Greystone’s Board of Directors.

Greystone’s executive officers and directors (and their affiliates), in the aggregate, own over 50% of Greystone’s outstanding common stock.  Therefore, Greystone’s executive officers and directors have the ability to decide the outcome of matters submitted to Greystone’s shareholders for approval (including the election and removal of directors and any merger, consolidation or sale of all or substantially all of Greystone’s assets) and to control Greystone’s management and affairs.  In addition, an entity that is wholly owned by Greystone’s executive officers and directors owns all of Greystone’s outstanding 2003 preferred stock.  The terms and conditions of Greystone’s 2003 preferred stock provide that such holder has the right to elect a majority of Greystone’s Board of Directors.  Such concentration of ownership may have the effect of delaying, deferring or preventing a change in control, impeding a merger, consolidation, takeover or other business combination or discouraging a potential acquirer from making a tender offer or otherwise attempting to obtain control, which in turn could have an adverse effect on the market price of Greystone’s common stock.

Certain restricted shares of Greystone will be eligible for sale in the future and are likely to be sold in the future, which could affect the prevailing market price of Greystone’s common stock.

Certain of the outstanding shares of Greystone’s common stock are “restricted securities” under Rule 144 of the Securities Act, and (except for shares purchased by “affiliates” of Greystone as such term is defined in Rule 144) would be eligible for sale as the applicable holding periods expire or in the event that the Company files a registration statement relating to such shares.  In the future, these shares may be sold only pursuant to a registration statement under the Securities Act or an applicable exemption, including pursuant to Rule 144.  Under Rule 144, a person who has owned common stock for at least one year may, under certain circumstances, sell within any three-month period a number of shares of common stock that does not exceed the greater of 1% of the then outstanding shares of common stock or the average weekly trading volume during the four calendar weeks prior to such sale.  A person who is not deemed to have been an affiliate of Greystone at any time during the three months preceding a sale, and who has beneficially owned the restricted securities for the last two years is entitled to sell all such shares without regard to the volume limitations, current public information requirements, manner of sale provisions and notice requirements.  In addition, Greystone has agreed to file a registration statement in connection with some of these outstanding shares of restricted stock.  Sales or the expectation of sales of a substantial number of shares of common stock in the public market by selling shareholders could adversely affect the prevailing market price of the common stock, possibly having a depressive effect on any trading market for the common stock, and may impair Greystone’s ability to raise capital at that time through additional sales of its equity securities.
15

Greystone’s stock trades in a limited public market, is subject to price volatility and there can be no assurance that an active trading market will develop or be sustained.

There has been a limited public trading market for Greystone’s common stock and there can be no assurance that an active trading market will develop or be sustained.  There can be no assurance that Greystone’s common stock will trade at or above any particular price in the public market, if at all.  The trading price of Greystone’s common stock could be subject to significant fluctuations in response to variations in quarterly operating results or even mild expressions of interest on a given day.  Accordingly, Greystone’s common stock should be expected to experience substantial price changes in short periods of time.  Even if Greystone is performing according to its plan and there is no legitimate company-specific financial basis for this volatility, it must still be expected that substantial percentage price swings will occur in Greystone’s common stock for the foreseeable future.  In addition, the limited market for Greystone’s common stock may restrict Greystone’s shareholders ability to liquidate their shares.

Greystone does not expect to declare or pay any dividends in the foreseeable future.

Greystone has not declared or paid any dividends on its common stock.  Greystone currently intends to retain future earnings to fund the development and growth of its business, to repay indebtedness and for general corporate purposes, and, therefore, does not anticipate paying any cash dividends on its common stock in the foreseeable future.   In addition, pursuant to the terms and conditions of certain loan documentation between Greystone and F&M Bank and the terms and conditions of Greystone’s 2003 preferred stock, Greystone is restricted in its ability to pay dividends to holders of its common stock.

Greystone’s common stock may be subject to secondary trading restrictions related to penny stocks.

Certain transactions involving the purchase or sale of Greystone’s common stock may be affected by a Commission rule for “penny stocks” that imposes additional sales practice burdens and requirements upon broker-dealers that purchase or sell such securities.  For transactions covered by this penny stock rule, among other things, broker-dealers must make certain disclosures to purchasers prior to the purchase or sale.  Consequently, the penny stock rule may impede the ability of broker-dealers to purchase or sell Greystone’s common stock for their customers and the ability of persons now owning or subsequently acquiring Greystone’s common stock to resell such securities.

Greystone may issue additional equity securities, which would lead to further dilution of Greystone’s issued and outstanding stock.

The issuance of additional common stock or securities convertible into common stock would result in further dilution of the ownership interest in Greystone held by existing shareholders.  Greystone is authorized to issue, without shareholder approval, 20,700,000 shares of preferred stock, $0.0001 par value per share, in one or more series, which may give other shareholders dividend,
16

conversion voting and liquidation rights, among other rights, which may be superior to the rights of holders of Greystone’s common stock.  In addition, Greystone is authorized to issue, without shareholder approval, over 4,960,000,000 additional shares of its common stock and securities convertible into common stock.

Results of Operations

General

The consolidated statements include Greystone, Greystone Properties, L.L.C., and Greystone's wholly-owned subsidiaries, Greystone Manufacturing, L.L.C., or GSM, Plastic Pallet Production, Inc.

Greystone’s primary business is the manufacturing and selling of plastic pallets through its wholly owned subsidiary GSM.

As of May 31, 2008, Greystone had 85 full-time employees and used temporary personnel as needed.  Greystone’s production capacity is about 70,000 plastic pallets per month, or 840,000 per year.  Production levels have generally been governed by sales and will increase as sales dictate.

Greystone has incurred significant losses from operations and only recently achieved positive cash flow from operations, and there is no assurance that it will achieve operating profitability or otherwise obtain funds necessary to finance continued operations.  See “Liquidity and Capital Resources” under this Item 6.

For all years presented, Greystone’s effective tax rate is 0%.  Greystone has generated net operating losses since inception, which would normally reflect a tax benefit in the statement of operations and a deferred asset on the balance sheet.  However, a valuation reserve has been established to offset the amount of any tax benefit available for each period presented in the consolidated statement of operations until such time as Greystone demonstrates the ability to show sustained profitability.

Year Ended May 31, 2008, Compared to Year Ended May 31, 2007

Sales were $21,081,114 for fiscal year 2008 compared to $12,454,293 for fiscal year 2007 for an increase of $8,626,821. The increase in sales is primarily attributable to new customers, production of the beverage pallets for existing clients, upward price adjustments, and increases in pharmaceutical pallet sales.

Cost of sales was $17,233,175 (82% of sales) and $11,445,067 (92% of sales) in fiscal years 2008 and 2007, respectively.  The improvement in the ratio of cost of sales to sales is principally due to a decrease in equipment rental as a result of the termination of the PIPER 600 lease in February 2007 and increases in sales prices.
17

General selling and administrative expenses were $1,815,469 for fiscal year 2008 compared to $1,828,395 for fiscal year 2007 for a decrease of $12,926.  The decrease is primarily attributable to a $195,172 decrease in stock based compensation from fiscal year 2007 to fiscal year 2008 offset by increases in general costs.

Other expenses were $452,276 in fiscal year 2007 compared to other income of $30,876 in fiscal year 2008.  The other expenses for fiscal year 2007 includes a charge of $619,060 resulting from a settlement for termination of the operating lease for the PIPER injection molding machines and a charge of $45,000 in settlement of an employment claim by a former employee. Effective February 1, 2007, Greystone issued 2,000,000 shares of its common stock and agreed to pay $24,000 per month for twenty-four months to 1607 Commerce LLC to terminate a long-term lease agreement on equipment.  The $619,060 charge included the present value of the series of $24,000 monthly payments at 8.5% interest or $519,060 plus the value of the common stock on the effective date of issuance or $100,000.

Interest expense was $1,061,248 in fiscal year 2008 compared to $1,272,002 in fiscal year 2007 for a decrease of $210,754.   Rates of interest on approximately 56% of Greystone’s long term debt is based on the prime rate of interest.   The prime rate of interest declined from 8.25% at May 31, 2007 to 5% at May 31, 2008.

The consolidated net income, before the deduction for preferred dividends, in fiscal year 2008 was $928,420 compared to a net loss of $(2,599,976) in fiscal year 2007 for an increase in profitability of $3,528,396.  This increase results from the reasons discussed above.

After deducting dividends to preferred shareholders of $508,691 and $575,548 in fiscal years 2008 and 2007, respectively, the consolidated net income available to common shareholders was $419,729, or $0.02 per share of  common stock, in fiscal year 2008 compared to net loss of $(3,175,524), or $(0.13) per share of common stock, in fiscal year 2007.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

General

Greystone’s cash requirements for operating activities consist principally of accounts receivable, inventory, accounts payable and scheduled payments of interest on outstanding indebtedness. Greystone is dependent on outside sources of cash to fund its operations. As of May 31, 2008, cash flows from sales remain insufficient to meet current liabilities.

A summary of cash flows for the year ended May 31, 2008 is as follows:
 
Cash provided by operating activities
  $ 744,420  
         
Cash used in investing activities
    (362,882 )
         
Cash used in financing activities
    (520,391 )

Long term debt obligations of Greystone are as follows:

1 year
 
 
2-3 years
 
 
4-5 years
 
Over

$1,940,767

To provide for the funding to meet Greystone’s operating activities and contractual obligations for fiscal 2008, Greystone will have to continue to produce positive operating results or explore various options including long-term debt and equity financing.  However, there is no guarantee that Greystone will continue to create positive operating results or be able to raise sufficient capital to meet these obligations.

Greystone has a working capital deficit of $(13,022,360) at May 31, 2008, which includes advances payable to related parties of $1,231,499, current portion of long-term debt of $9,013,395 and accounts payable and accrued expenses of $1,138,735, and accounts payable to related parties of $2,490,080.  This deficit reflects the uncertain financial condition of Greystone resulting from its inability to obtain long term financing from traditional financing sources.  There is no assurance that Greystone will secure such financing.

As described below, substantially all of the financing that Greystone has received through May 31, 2008, has been provided by loans or through loan guarantees from the officers and directors of Greystone, the offerings of preferred stock to current and former officers and directors of Greystone in 2001 and 2003 and through a private placement of common stock completed in March 2005.

Greystone continues to be dependent upon its officers and directors to provide and/or secure additional financing and there is no assurance that either will do so.  As such, there is no assurance that funding will be available for Greystone to continue operations.

Greystone has 50,000 outstanding shares of cumulative 2003 Preferred Stock for a total of $5,000,000 with a preferred dividend rate of the prime rate of interest plus 3.25%.  Greystone does not anticipate that it will make cash dividend payments to any holders of its preferred stock or its common stock unless and until the financial position of Greystone improves through increased revenues, another financing or otherwise.

Advances and Loans from Warren Kruger

During 2007, Warren Kruger advanced working capital funds to Greystone in the amount of $859,400 and Greystone repaid Warren Kruger the amount of $509,041.  Effective December 15, 2005, Greystone entered into a loan agreement with Warren Kruger to convert $527,716 of the advances into a note payable at 7.5% interest and payable in three equal installments of principal and accrued interest beginning January 15, 2008 through January 15, 2010 of which Mr. Kruger has
 
19

agreed to waive the first installment until January 15, 2009. At May 31, 2008, note payable of $527,716, advances of $1,231,499 and accrued interest of $190,002 were due to entities owned or controlled by Warren Kruger.

Loans from F&M Bank

On March 4, 2005, Greystone entered into a loan agreement with GLOG Investment, L.L.C. (“GLOG”) and The F&M Bank & Trust Company (“F&M), which, among other things, sets forth certain terms applicable to a $1,900,000 revolving loan extended by F&M to GSM on or about December 18, 2004 and a new $5,500,000 term loan extended by F&M to GSM on March 4, 2005.  GLOG is wholly owned by the following officers and/or directors of the Registrant: Warren F. Kruger (President and CEO) and Robert B. Rosene, Jr. (Director).  GLOG was a party to the loan agreement for the sole purpose of securing the funds necessary to purchase 50,000 shares of Greystone’s 2003 preferred stock previously owned by Paul A. Kruger.  The  revolving loan, which bears interest at the prime rate plus 1%, is renewable annually and is currently due on October 5, 2008.  Substantially all of the proceeds available under the revolving note have been used to retire the loan from another bank.  Amounts borrowed under the term loan are represented by a promissory note, which bears interest at the prime rate plus 2% and GSM is required to make monthly payments based upon a full fifteen year amortization of the outstanding principal balance under the term note with any outstanding principal and all accrued and unpaid interest payable in full on June 15, 2008.  Substantially all of the proceeds from the term loan have been used to refinance certain short-term debt of GSM, including the repayment of the notes issued by GSM to Greystone Plastics, Inc. and Bill Hamilton that were the subject of dispute as further described under the heading “Acquisition of Greystone Plastics, Inc.” in Item 1 of this Form 10-KSB.

Greystone’s obligations under the loan agreement with F&M are secured by a lien in favor of F&M on substantially all of GSM’s assets pursuant to the terms of a security agreement and second mortgage.  Also, pursuant to the terms of a guaranty agreement, Greystone guaranteed GSM’s performance and payment under the notes.  In addition, in order to induce F&M to enter into the loan agreement, certain officers and directors of the Company (Messrs. Kruger and Rosene) entered into a limited guaranty agreement with F&M and Mr. Rosene entered into a pledge agreement with F&M.

Advances and Loans from Robert Rosene

Effective December 15, 2005, Greystone entered into a loan agreement with Mr. Rosene to convert $2,066,000 of the advances into a note payable at 7.5% interest and payable in three equal annual installments of principal and accrued interest beginning January 15, 2008 and ending January 15, 2010 of which Mr. Rosene has waived the first installment until January 15, 2009.  Accrued interest due to Mr. Rosene as of May 31, 2008 is $351,293.

Controls and Procedures

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Disclosure controls and procedures are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by Greystone in reports filed or submitted under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms.  Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to management, including the principal executive and financial officers, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. There are inherent limitations to the effectiveness of any system of disclosure controls and procedures, including the possibility of human error and the circumvention or overriding of the controls and procedures.  Accordingly, even effective disclosure controls and procedures can only provide reasonable assurance of achieving their control objectives.

An evaluation was performed under the supervision and with the participation of Greystone’s principal executive officer (CEO) and principal financial officer (CFO), of the effectiveness of the design and operation of Greystone’s disclosure controls and procedures as of May 31, 2008.  Based on this evaluation, Greystone’s CEO and CFO have concluded that Greystone’s disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of May 31, 2008 as a result of the three material weaknesses identified below.

Management’s Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

Greystone’s CEO and CFO are 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.  Greystone’s internal controls were designed to provide reasonable assurance as to the reliability of Greystone’s financial reporting and the preparation of the consolidated financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States, as well as to safeguard assets from unauthorized use or disposition.

Due to inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of control effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that the controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

Greystone’s CEO and CFO made an assessment of the effectiveness of Greystone’s internal
 
 
21

control over financial reporting as of May 31, 2008.  In making this assessment, Greystone’s CEO and CFO used the criteria established in Internal Control— Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO).  This evaluation included review of the documentation of controls, evaluation of the design effectiveness of controls, testing of the operating effectiveness of controls and concluding on this evaluation.  During this evaluation, Greystone’s CEO and CFO identified three material weakness.  As a result of these three material weaknesses, Greystone’s CEO and CFO concluded that Greystone did not maintain effective internal control over financial reporting as of May 31, 2008.

First, Greystone has not employed individuals with the necessary accounting knowledge to identify and implement recently issued accounting standards. This deficiency in monitoring and accounting expertise resulted in Greystone restating the May 31, 2007 consolidated financial statements to comply with the consolidation requirements of Financial Accounting Standards Board Interpretation No. 46 (revised), Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities, and the identification during the audit of numerous material adjustments to Greystone’s financial statements.  Until this material weakness is corrected, material misstatements in the financial statements could remain undetected.

Second, Greystone did not maintain proper records to ensure proper cut-off of inventory and accounts payable at May 31, 2008 specifically with its primary supplier Yorktown.  In addition, labor and overhead rates are not calculated and updated as necessary to ensure proper valuation of finished goods inventory.  Not ensuring inventory and accounts payable are properly cut-off at period end and not ensuring appropriate labor and overhead rates are applied to finished goods inventory resulted in adjustments to Greystone’s financial statements.

Third, Greystone lacks the necessary corporate accounting resources to maintain adequate segregation of duties. Reliance on these limited resources impairs Greystone’s ability to provide for proper segregation of duties and the ability to ensure consistently complete and accurate financial reporting, as well as disclosure controls and procedures.

This annual report does not include an attestation report of Greystone’s independent registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting.  Management’s report was not subject to attestation by Greystone’s independent registered public accounting firm pursuant to temporary rules of the SEC to provide only management’s report in this annual report.

Remediation of Material Weaknesses

In an effort to remediate the identified material weaknesses, Greystone shall cause certain of its accounting personnel to obtain training and education with respect to recently issued accounting standards and SEC reporting and shall begin sending monthly bank statements and Yorktown information provided by Warren Kruger directly to a third party CPA firm for review and reconciliation.  Management believes these step should remediate the identified material weaknesses.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

During the period covered by this report, there was no change in Greystone’s internal controls over financial reporting that has materially affected or that is reasonably likely to materially affect Greystone’s internal control over financial reporting.

Identification of the Audit Committee; Audit Committee Financial Expert

Due to Greystone’s size and stage of development, it has had difficulty recruiting individuals to serve on its Board of Directors who are qualified to serve as an audit committee financial expert on an audit committee.  As of May 31, 2008, the Company had not established an audit committee and the entire Board of Directors essentially serves as Greystone’s audit committee.

Code of Ethics

Effective April 8, 2008, Greystone adopted a Code of Ethics applicable to the Company’s officers and directors.

Section 16(a) Beneficial Ownership Reporting Compliance

Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 requires Greystone’s directors, officers and persons who beneficially own more than 10% of any class of the Company’s equity securities registered under Section 12 to file with the Securities and Exchange Commission initial reports of ownership and reports of changes in ownership of such registered securities of the Company.  Officers, directors and greater than 10% beneficial owners are required by regulation to furnish to Greystone copies of all Section 16(a) reports they file.

Based solely on review of the copies of such reports furnished to Greystone and any written representations that no other reports were required during fiscal 2008, to Greystone’s knowledge, all Section 16(a) filing requirements applicable to its officers, directors and greater than 10% beneficial owners during fiscal 2008 were complied with on a timely basis, except as follows:

Technology License Agreement

In April 2001, Greystone entered into a license agreement with WCC, an entity owned by Warren Kruger and William Pritchard, providing for Greystone to have the exclusive right and license to use fire retardancy technology then being developed under the direction and expense of WCC.  The license agreement was negotiated and executed 9 months before Warren Kruger, William Pritchard, or entities with which they are affiliated became directors or beneficial owners of 10% or more of Greystone’s common stock in January 2002.  Under the agreement, Greystone must pay the greater of 2.5% of Greystone’s gross monthly revenues derived from the sale of UL listed pallets using the technology or a minimum monthly royalty of $10,000.  However, WCC also agreed in the license agreement to convey to Greystone ownership of the licensed Process (as defined in the agreement) in the event that cumulative royalties paid by Greystone equaled $250,000 during the first two years of the agreement, subject to an override or carried interest in favor of WCC equal to 2.5% of the gross monthly revenues which are the same payments as would have been received under the license agreement.  Subsequent to the execution of the original agreement which provided for a “coating” technology, Westgate Capital Company, L.L.C., developed an additive process which Greystone used to successfully complete UL testing.  The technology is currently known as CJ2(TM).

Greystone has previously incurred $400,000 of royalty fees under the license agreement and issued its common stock to WCC in satisfaction of the debt.  It is Greystone’s understanding that it has a paid-up licensing agreement with Westgate Capital Company, L.L.C.   WCC has not asserted that Greystone is in default under the license agreement, and WCC has indicated that it has no current intentions of asserting any default by Greystone under such agreement.

Other Transactions

For information relating to a Purchase Agreement and Bill of Sale and related Pallet Molds Lease Agreement entered into with Yorktown Management & Financial Services, LLC, an entity wholly owned by the Company’s CEO and President, see “Recent Transactions” under Item 1 of this Form 10-KSB.  Greystone completed this transaction with Yorktown, in part, to alleviate the working capital requirements in maintaining raw material inventory, by purchasing raw material as it is used in the production process.  In addition, GSM pays rental to Yorktown for use of Yorktown’s 48X40 mold at the rate of $1.00 per pallet.  During 2008 and 2007, GSM purchased raw materials from and paid rentals to Yorktown totaling $7,526,779 and $3,079,672, respectively.
 
For information relating to a Settlement Agreement entered into with Commerce Plastics L.P., an entity wholly owned by Paul Kruger, a beneficial owner of more than five percent of Greystone’s common stock, see “Recent Transactions” under Item 1 of this Form 10-KSB.

Director Independence

Greystone has determined that Mr. Rosene is “independent” within the meaning of Rule 4200(a)(15) of the NASDAQ listing standards.  Because of the small size of Greystone’s Board of Directors, it has not established any committees.  Rather, the entire Board acts as, and performs the same functions as, the audit committee, compensation committee and nominating committee.  Mr. Kruger is not considered “independent” within the meaning of Rule 4200(a)(15) of the NASDAQ listing standards.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

To the Stockholders of
Greystone Logistics, Inc.

We have audited the consolidated balance sheet of Greystone Logistics, Inc. and subsidiaries as of May 31, 2008, and the related consolidated statements of operations, changes in stockholders’ deficit and cash flows for the year then ended. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audit. The consolidated financial statements of Greystone Logistics, Inc. for the year ended May 31, 2007, were audited by other auditors whose report, dated August 29, 2007, except for the restatement for the matter discussed in Note 17 to the financial statements, dated September 15, 2008, on those financial statements included an explanatory paragraph that expressed substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.

We conducted our audit 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. We were not engaged to examine management’s assertion about the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of May 31, 2008, included in Item 8A. and, accordingly, we do not express an opinion thereon.  An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Greystone Logistics, Inc. and subsidiaries as of May 31, 2008, and the results of their operations and their cash flows for the year then ended, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. In previous years, the Company suffered significant losses from operations which resulted in a cumulative stockholders’ deficit of $9,279,367 and a working capital deficit of $13,223,360.  These deficits at May 31, 2008 raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. Management’s plans in regard to these matters are described in Note 2. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of these uncertainties.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

To the Stockholders of
Greystone Logistics, Inc.

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheet of Greystone Logistics, Inc. (an Oklahoma corporation) and its subsidiaries as of May 31, 2007, and the related consolidated statements of operations, changes in stockholders' deficit and cash flows for each of the years ended May 31, 2007 and 2006.  These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management.  Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the consolidated financial statements based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with 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, nor have we been engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audit included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company's internal control over financial reporting.  Accordingly, we express no such opinion.  An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above, revised as described in Note 16 and 17, present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of Greystone Logistics, Inc. and its subsidiaries as of May 31, 2007, and the consolidated results of their operations and cash flows for the years ended May 31, 2007 and 2006, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

As discussed in Note 16 and 17 to the financial statements, certain accounts were adjusted to reflect the consolidation of Greystone Properties, LLC as of May 31, 2007 and for the year then ended.  The affected accounts and related adjustments are also included in Note 17.  In our opinion, such adjustments are appropriate and have been properly applied.

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. The Company has suffered significant losses from operations. Substantial additional funding will be required to implement its business plan and to attain profitable operations.  The lack of adequate funding to maintain working capital and stockholders' deficits at May 31, 2007 raises substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern unless additional funds from outside sources, its president or other board members are obtained. Management's plans in regard to these matters are described in Note 2.  The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of these uncertainties.

Greystone Logistics, Inc. and Subsidiaries
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

Note 1.
SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Organization

Greystone Logistics, Inc. (Greystone) through its wholly-owned subsidiaries Greystone Manufacturing, LLC (“GSM”), and Plastic Pallet Production, Inc. (“PPP”), is engaged in the manufacture and marketing of plastic pallets.

Principles of Consolidation

The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Greystone and its subsidiaries and variable interests.  All material intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated.

Greystone consolidates all entities that it controls by ownership of a majority voting interest as well as variable interest entities for which Greystone is the primary beneficiary. In determining if Greystone is the primary beneficiary of variable interest entities includes an assessment  of Greystone’s level of involvement in setting up the entity, determining if the activities of the entity are substantially conducted on behalf of Greystone, determining whether Greystone provides more than half of the subordinated financial support to the entity, and determining if Greystone absorbs the majority of the entity’s expected losses or returns.

Greystone’s consolidated variable interest is Greystone Properties, LLC which is owned by Warren Kruger, President and CEO, and Robert Rosene, a member of the Board of Directors.  By virtue of the fact that Warren Kruger and Robert Rosene have personally guaranteed the mortgage note payable of Greystone Properties, the entity is considered by management to be a variable interest.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of Greystone’s financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America requires Greystone’s management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in these financial statements and accompanying notes.  Actual results could differ materially from those estimates.

Accounts Receivable and Allowance for Doubtful Accounts

Trade accounts receivable are stated at the amount management expects to collect from outstanding balances. Delinquency fees are not assessed. Payments of accounts receivable
 
 
F-7

are allocated to the specific invoices identified on the customers’ remittance advice. The carrying amount of accounts receivable is reduced, if needed, by a valuation allowance that reflects management’s best estimate of the amounts that will not be collected. Management periodically reviews all individual accounts receivable balances, and based on an assessment of current creditworthiness, estimates the portion, if any, of the balance that may not be collected. Management provides for probable uncollectible amounts through a charge to earnings and a credit to a valuation allowance based on its assessment of the current status of the individual accounts. Balances that remain outstanding after management has used reasonable collection efforts are written off through a charge to the valuation allowance and a credit to trade accounts receivable. Changes in the valuation allowance have not been material to the financial statements. Recoveries of trade receivables previously written off are recorded when received.  Management determined an allowance for doubtful accounts was not necessary at May 31, 2008.

Inventory

Inventory consists of finished pallets and raw materials and is stated at the lower of average cost or market value.  The cost of finished goods includes direct labor and materials plus allocated manufacturing overhead.

Under the terms of the contracts with its primary customers, Greystone repurchases damaged pallets at set prices. These damaged pallets are recorded to raw material inventory and reground for use in manufacturing new pallets.

Property, Plant and Equipment

Greystone’s property, plant and equipment is stated at cost.  Depreciation expense is computed on the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives as follows:
 
Plant building
39 years
Production machinery and equipment
5-10 years
Office equipment & furniture & fixtures
3- 5 years

Repairs and maintenance costs are expensed when incurred unless it is determined that the useful life of the respective asset has been extended. Upon sale, retirement or other disposal, the related costs and accumulated depreciation of items of property, plant or equipment are removed from the related accounts and any gain or loss is recognized.  When events or changes in circumstances indicate that assets may be impaired, an evaluation is performed comparing the estimated future undiscounted cash flows associated with the asset to the asset’s carrying amount.  If the asset carrying amount exceeds the cash flows, a write-down to fair value is required.  As discussed in Note 2, Continuation as a Going Concern, the financial statements have been prepared assuming that Greystone will continue operations as a going concern and, accordingly, do not include any adjustments to the carrying value of its property and equipment relating to
 
F-8

any potential outcome of such uncertainties.

Patents

Amortization expense for the costs incurred by Greystone to obtain the patents on the modular pallet system and accessories is computed on the straight-line method over the estimated life of 15-17 years.

Stock Options

 
 
In accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123(R), “Share-Based Payment,” Greystone recognizes in the income statement the grant-date fair value of stock options and other equity-based compensation issued to employees.
 

Recognition of Revenues
 
 
Greystone recognizes revenue in accordance with SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 104, Revenue Recognition in Financial Statements (SAB 104). Under SAB 104, revenue is recognized when the title and risk of loss have passed to the customer, there is persuasive evidence of an arrangement, delivery has occurred or services have been rendered, the sales price is determinable and collectability is reasonably assured. Greystone typically recognizes revenue at the time of shipment. However, under the terms of certain contracts with its two primary customers Greystone recognizes revenue when its products are delivered to the customers.
 
Research and Development Costs

Research and development costs are charged to operations in the period incurred.

Income Taxes

Greystone accounts for income taxes under the liability method, which requires recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of events that have been included in the financial statements or tax returns.  Under this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on the difference between the financial statements and tax bases of assets and liabilities using enacted tax rates in effect for the year in which the differences are expected to reverse.

F-9

Earnings (Loss) Per Share

Basic income or loss per share is computed by dividing the income or loss available to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the year. For fiscal year 2007, convertible preferred stock, warrants and stock options are not  considered as their effect is antidilutive.  For fiscal year 2008, diluted earnings per share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted-average number of common shares and dilutive potential common shares outstanding during the period.

The following is a reconciliation of the number of shares used in the calculation of basic earnings per share and diluted earnings per share for the year ended May 31, 2008:
 
 
Weighted-average number of common shares outstanding
      26,065,000  
 
Incremental shares from the assumed exercise of dilutive stock options
       106,000  
 
Dilutive potential common shares
    26,171,000  
 
The following securities (rounded to thousands) were not included in the computation of diluted net earnings per share as their effect would have been anti-dilutive:
 
 
Options to purchase common stock
    2,183,000  
 
Warrants to purchase common stock
    5,013,000  
 
Convertible preferred stock
      3,333,000  
 
    10,529,000  

Shipping and Handling

In accordance with Emerging Issues Task Force (EITF) Issue 00-10, Accounting for Shipping and Handling Fees and Costs, the Company records shipping fees billed to customers in sales and records the related expenses in cost of sales.

Share-Based Payment

In December 2004, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No 123R, Share-Based Payment (SFAS 123R).  SFAS 123R is a revision of SFAS 123, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation, and supersedes APB Opinion No. 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees, and its
 
F-10

related implementation guidance.  Under paragraph 7 of SFAS 123R, if the fair value of goods or services received in a share-based payment transaction with nonemployees is more reliably measurable than the fair value of the equity instruments issued, the fair value of the goods or services received shall be used to measure the transaction.  In contrast, if the fair value of the equity instruments issued in a share-based payment transaction with nonemployees is more reliably measurable than the fair value of the consideration received, the transaction shall be measured based on the fair value of the equity instruments issued.  Greystone utilized the fair value of the equity instruments issued to nonemployees to value the shares issued.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

On July 13, 2006, the FASB issued FIN No. 48, Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes—An Interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109 (FIN 48). FIN 48 clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in an enterprise’s financial statements in accordance with FASB Statement No. 109, Accounting for Income Taxes, by prescribing a recognition threshold and measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. FIN 48 provides guidance on derecognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosure, and transition. Greystone adopted the provisions of FIN 48 effective June 1, 2007. The adoption of FIN 48 did not have a material effect on our consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

In September 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 157, Fair Value Measurements (SFAS 157). SFAS 157 defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP), and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. The issuance of this standard is meant to increase consistency and comparability in fair value measurements. SFAS 157 is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007. In February 2008, the FASB issued FASB Staff Position 157-1, Application of FASB Statement No. 157 to FASB Statement No. 13 and Other Accounting Pronouncements That Address Fair Value Measurements for Purposes of Lease Classification or Measurement under Statement 13 (FSP 157-1) and FASB Staff Position 157-2, Effective Date of FASB Statement No. 157 (FSP 157-2). FSP 157-1 amends SFAS 157 to remove certain leasing transactions from its scope. FSP 157-2 delays until January 1, 2009 the effective date of SFAS 157 for all non-financial assets and liabilities, except for items that are recognized or disclosed at fair value in the financial statements on a recurring basis.  Greystone does not expect the adoption of SFAS 157 to have a material effect on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

In February 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 159, The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities (SFAS 159). SFAS 159 permits entities to choose to measure many financial instruments and certain other items at fair value, and establishes
 
F-11

presentation and disclosure requirements designed to facilitate comparisons between entities that choose different measurement attributes for similar types of assets and liabilities. SFAS 159 is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007.  Greystone does not expect the adoption of SFAS 159 to have a material effect on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 160, Noncontrolling Interests in Consolidated Financial Statements (SFAS 160). SFAS 160 was issued to establish accounting and reporting standards for the noncontrolling interest in a subsidiary (formerly called minority interests) and for the deconsolidation of a subsidiary. It clarifies that a noncontrolling interest in a subsidiary is an ownership interest in the consolidated entity that should be reported as equity in the consolidated financial statements. FAS No. 160 is effective for us in our fiscal year beginning after December 15, 2008.  Greystone does not expect the adoption of SFAS 160 to have a material effect on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures, except for the presentation of non-controlling interests in the financial statements.
 
In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 141 (revised 2007), Business Combinations (SFAS 141R). SFAS 141R was issued to improve the relevance, representational faithfulness, and comparability of the information that a reporting entity provides in its financial reports about a business combination and its effects.  This Statement is effective prospectively to business combinations for which the acquisition date is on or after the beginning of the first annual reporting period beginning on or after December 15, 2008. Greystone does not expect the adoption of SFAS 141R to have a material effect on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

Note 2.
CONTINUATION AS A GOING CONCERN

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that Greystone will continue as a going concern.  Greystone achieved its first year of profitable operations in recent years, reporting net income available to common stockholders of $419,729 and cash provided by operations of $744,240.  However, total stockholder deficit still exceeds $9 million and working capital deficit still exceeds $13 million.  The Company’s ability to continue to exist as a going concern for the next fiscal year depends primarily on the forbearance of the Company’s creditors.  The most significant creditors include related parties and the lending institutions identified in Note 6.   Some refinancing has already occurred, as described in Note 6, and F&M Bank has communicated to the Company that it anticipates it will renew the debt that is currently due on terms similar to existing terms.   While management is optimistic about the forbearance of its creditors and the conversion of its credit facilities to long-term, there can be no assurance that management’s efforts will allow the Company to meet its obligations when due.

While 2008 results are viewed by management with optimism, the Company does not have an adequate history of profitable operations to provide reasonable assurance of
 
F-12

continuation as a going concern.  Management is working to enhance the value of the Company’s contracts with its two most significant customers, and expand its customer base and product offerings.  Some of these efforts will require additional capital to implement.  There is no assurance that management’s efforts will be sufficiently successful, or that needed capital will be available, for the Company to continue as a going concern.

RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

Transactions with Paul Kruger, a significant stockholder

On February 8, 2007, Greystone entered into a Settlement Agreement and Release with 1607 Commerce Limited Partnership, a Texas limited partnership, which subsequently changed its name to Commerce Plastics L.P. (“Commerce”).  Pursuant to the Settlement Agreement and in exchange for full, final and complete settlement of any and all claims that Commerce has asserted, or could have asserted, in its lawsuit regarding an alleged default in the payment of rent pursuant to terms of the Equipment Lease (defined below) and the enforcement of certain related guaranties, Greystone agreed to (i) to pay outstanding rental accruals by Greystone to Commerce of $1,048,000, (ii) make monthly payments to Commerce of $24,000 for a term of 24 months commencing March 1, 2007, which payments can be used towards the purchase price of pallets purchased from Commerce as further described below, (iii) transfer to Commerce 2,000,000 shares of the Company’s common stock, and (iv) enter into an agreement with Commerce whereby, among other things, Commerce will be given floor space, utilities and regrind resin in the Company’s Iowa facility and the Company will be required to purchase up to 200,000 Granada pallets at $8.00 per pallet and 200,000 nestable pallets at $3.00 per pallet from Commerce over a two year term.  Also pursuant to the Settlement Agreement, the monthly payments to be made by the Company will be credited against the purchase price of any Granada pallets purchased from Commerce; provided, however, Commerce is not obligated to produce any pallets, but has agreed to use it best efforts to do so. The Settlement Agreement also included an immediate termination of that certain equipment
 
F-15

lease dated as of September 8, 2003, by and between Commerce and Plastic Pallet (the “Equipment Lease”), whereby the registrant leased, for a term of 130 months commencing September 8, 2003, at a rate of $48,000 per month, certain equipment that PPP previously used to produce its pallets.

Rental payments pursuant to the equipment lease agreement totaled $384,000 for fiscal year 2007.

Transactions with Warren Kruger, Vice Chairman

Effective June 1, 2006, Yorktown Management & Financial Services LLC, an entity owned by Warren Kruger, Chairman and CEO, commenced selling plastic raw material to GSM primarily as a sole provider. Effective February 1, 2007, GSM entered into a purchase agreement with Yorktown pursuant to which Yorktown purchased from GSM  existing finished goods inventory and certain raw materials for $1,018,582 and grinding and peripheral equipment, resin contracts and molds for $981,418.  Greystone completed this transaction with Yorktown, in part, to alleviate the working capital requirements in maintaining raw material inventory, by purchasing raw material as it is used in the production process.  In addition, GSM pays rental to Yorktown for use of Yorktown’s 48X40 mold at the rate of $1.00 per pallet.  During 2008 and 2007, GSM purchased raw material purchases from and paid rentals to Yorktown totaling $7,526,779 and $3,079,672, respectively.

During 2007, Warren Kruger advanced working capital funds to Greystone in the amount of $859,400 and Greystone repaid Warren Kruger the amount of $509,041.  Effective December 15, 2005, Greystone entered into a loan agreement with Warren Kruger to convert $527,716 of the advances into a note payable at 7.5% interest and payable in three equal installments of principal and accrued interest beginning January 15, 2008 through January 15, 2010 of which Warren Kruger has waived the first installment until January 15, 2009. At May 31, 2008, note payable of $527,716, advances of $1,231,499 and accrued interest of $190,002 were due to entities owned or controlled by Warren Kruger.

Greystone also reimburses an entity owned by Warren Kruger for office rent at the rate of $1,500 per month.

Pursuant to Mr. Kruger’s employment contract with Greystone, he is entitled to be paid an annual salary of $240,000.  However, effective in November 2006, Mr. Kruger voluntarily elected to temporarily defer the payment of half of such salary until such time as Greystone’s operating results further improve.

Transactions with Robert Rosene, Director

Effective December 15, 2005, Greystone entered into a loan agreement with Mr. Rosene to convert $2,066,000 of the advances into a note payable at 7.5% interest and payable in

certain financing and consulting services, which facilitated the sale of certain of Greystone’s equipment to Yorktown Management & Financial Services, LLC, a company owned by Warren Kruger, Chairman and CEO.  The warrants are valued at $8,500.

Common Stock

Effective February 1, 2007, Greystone agreed to issue 2,000,000 shares of its common stock and agreed to pay $24,000 per month for twenty-four months to 1607 Commerce LLC to terminate a long-term lease agreement on equipment.  The present value of the series of $24,000 monthly payments at 8.5% interest or $519,060 and the value of the common stock on the effective date of issuance of $100,000 were recorded as a loss on the termination agreement of the long-term lease.

Convertible Preferred Stock

In September, 2003, Greystone issued 50,000 shares of Series 2003, cumulative, convertible preferred stock, par value $0.0001, for a total purchase price of $5,000,000.  Each share of the preferred stock has a stated value of $100 and a dividend rate equal to the prime rate of interest plus 3.25% and may be converted into common stock at the conversion rate of $1.50 per share or an aggregate of 3,333,333 shares of common stock. The holder of the preferred stock has been granted certain voting rights so that such holder has the right to elect a majority of the Board of Directors of Greystone.  The holder of the preferred stock waived its right to compounded dividends on unpaid interest during the period from March 4, 2005 through May 31, 2008, totaling approximately $262,000.

CONCENTRATIONS
 
Financial instruments that potentially subject Greystone to concentrations of credit risk consist principally of cash deposits in excess of federally insured limits.  As of May 31, 2008, Greystone’s bank balances exceeded federally insured limits by $101,301.

For the fiscal year ended May 31, 2008 and 2007, two of Greystone’s customers accounted for approximately 75% and 85% of sales, respectively.

As of the fiscal year ended May 31, 2008, Greystone purchased 100% of its raw materials from Yorktown Management & Financial Services LLC, an entity owned by Warren Kruger, Chairman and CEO.   However, the raw materials for Greystone’s products are readily available and may be purchased from other suppliers.
 
 
Note 15. 
CONTINGENCIES
 
A court action was filed by William Hamilton dba WHACO and dba Greystone Bill Hamilton Trucking against GSM alleging damages in the amount of $104,390 for breach of contract involving provision of materials and services.  William Hamilton is an owner in Greystone Plastics, Inc. from whom GSM purchased certain manufacturing assets in 2003.  GSM has denied all allegations and has asserted a counterclaim arising from the sale of manufacturing assets by Greystone Plastics, Inc. to GSM.  Discovery is continuing in this action and a trial date has been set in February 2009.  GSM management cannot predict or guarantee the outcome of the action.

Certain conditions may exist as of the date the financial statements are issued, which may

result in a loss to Greystone but which will only be resolved when one or more future events occur or fail to occur. Greystone’s management and its legal counsel assess such contingent liabilities, and such assessment inherently involves an exercise of judgment. In assessing loss contingencies related to legal proceedings that are pending against Greystone or unasserted claims that may result in such proceedings, Greystone’s legal counsel evaluates the perceived merits of any legal proceedings or unasserted claims as well as the perceived merits of the amount of relief sought or expected to be sought therein.

If the assessment of a contingency indicates that it is probable that a material loss has been incurred and the amount of the liability can be estimated, then the estimated liability would be accrued in Greystone’s financial statements. If the assessment indicates that a potentially material loss contingency is not probable but is reasonably possible, or is probable but cannot be estimated, then the nature of the contingent liability, together with an estimate of the range of possible loss if determinable and material, would be disclosed.

Loss contingencies considered remote are generally not disclosed unless they involve guarantees, in which case the guarantees would be disclosed.
 

Note 16.
VARIABLE INTEREST ENTITY

Greystone Properties, L.L.C, which is owned by Warren Kruger, President and CEO, and Robert Rosene, a member of the Board of Directors, was created solely to own and lease one of the two buildings GSM occupies in Bettendorf, Iowa. An implicit variable interest exists given the related party nature of the lease. The lease terms are based on factors other than the lease’s market value; and the outstanding mortgage on the building is guaranteed by Greystone’s President and CEO.

The building, having a carrying value of $1,953,046 at May 31, 2008, serves as collateral for Greystone Properties’ debt.  The debt has a carrying value of $1,314,228 at May 31, 2008 and has no recourse to the general credit of Greystone.
