Sail Sports, Inc. entered into a reorganization agreement (the “Reorganization
Agreement”) pursuant to which the registrant spun off its existing business,
replaced its management and changed its corporate name and business (the

Transaction:

the
registrant effected a 28.5-for-1 forward stock split whereby 460,000
pre-forward split registered shares held by approximately 42
non-affiliates (the “Non-Affiliates”) of the registrant were converted
into 13,110,000 post-forward split registered shares (the “Post-Forward
Split Registered Shares”);
|
· |
all
of the registrant’s issued and outstanding shares of registered and
restricted common stock (other than the Post-Forward Split Registered
Shares) were cancelled;
|
· |
in
exchange for $10 and other valuable consideration, pursuant to the
Reorganization Agreement the registrant issued an aggregate of 10,000,000
restricted shares of its common stock in connection with the Transaction

(1,900,000) and Gary Wolff (100,000). As part of the Reorganization
Agreement, the principals of Andover Medical, Inc. transferred all
right,
title and interest to the new business (see Item 2.01 below) of Andover,
including, but not limited to, letters of intent for acquisitions,
an
office lease, office furniture and cash.

Reilly
was appointed the President, Chief Operating Officer, acting Chief
Financial Officer, and Secretary of the registrant, and Mr. Coffill
was
elected to serve as its sole director;
|
· |
the

liabilities), involved providing one-day ski trips within the New
England
area was spun off prior to the Transaction, the registrant is now
engaged
in the business of providing orthopedic, podiatric and urological
supplies
and services to physicians and other healthcare providers;
|
· |
the
registrant issued an aggregate of 2,500,000 incentive stock options
to
purchase an equivalent number of shares of its restricted common

Item
2.01. Completion
of Acquisition or Disposition of Assets.
The
disclosure regarding the acquisition and disposition of the registrant’s assets
in Item 1.01 above, is incorporated herein by reference.
The
registrant has effected a complete change of business operations as a result
of
the Transaction. The Board of Directors of the registrant has adopted a business
plan pursuant to which the registrant intends to engage in the business of
providing orthopedic, podiatric and urological supplies and services to
physicians and other healthcare providers.
Description
of the Business
Andover
Medical, Inc. (referred to herein as (the “Registrant”) the “Company” or “AMI”)
intends to be a provider of orthopedic and podiatric durable medical equipment,
as well as urological devices and disposables. AMI’s products generally are
prescribed by physicians and are eligible for third-party reimbursement.
The
Company’s business plan is focused primarily in the “stock-and-bill” sector of
the medical services industry. Under typical stock-and-bill programs:
(i)
the
physician’s office is stocked with medical products at the vendor’s expense;
(ii)
the
vendor’s employees handle many of the aspects of maintaining products in the
physician’s clinic; and
(iii)
the
vendor bills third party payers under its tax id number.
There
are
a variety of reasons why some physicians find referring patients to orthopedic
and prosthetic (“O&P”) facilities to be a less attractive alternative than
stock-and-bill programs:
(a)
the
physician’s office is forced to seek an in-network provider;
(b)
the
patient is inconvenienced with an extra trip to another medical office;
(c)
incorrect products may be dispensed at the O&P facilities;
(d)
patients may be subject to aggressive financial policies at O&P facilities;
and
(e)
O&P facilities may not be open during clinic hours.
Orthopedics,
urology and podiatry are among the fastest growing segments in healthcare
products and services. The “graying” of the population and the increase in the
active physical lifestyle of seniors, among other factors, play key roles in
this growth. AMI believes the distribution channel for these healthcare segments
is currently fragmented and inefficient. Being a local independent distributor
is difficult for a number of important reasons including the
following:
(a)
small
independent operations have a very difficult time trying to gain access to
innovative (high margin) product for distribution;
(b)
negotiation for product to reduce the cost of goods sold is very limited;
therefore, margin enhancement is difficult;
(c)
back
office expenses are spread over a very limited revenue base; and
(d)
little opportunity for a viable exit strategy.
AMI,
however, intends to establish a unified national distribution channel by
acquiring and consolidating healthcare companies in the fragmented distribution
channel for orthopedic, podiatric and urology supplies and services. The Company
is currently in the process of seeking to acquire its first three entities
that
provide such supplies and services. This would allow the Company to immediately
have a foot print in three of the fastest growing areas of healthcare,
orthopedics, podiatrics and urology. AMI’s management believes that these
actions will enable the Company to compete more effectively by taking advantage
of certain economies of scale and providing the opportunity for certain
operational efficiencies. For example:
(a)
size
and scale will help reduce the cost of goods sold through volume domestic
purchasing;
(b)
once
a unified national distribution channel is established, the Company will have
greater opportunities to distribute innovative products through this newly
created channel; and
(c)
the
ability to centralize back office administrative functions will allow for better
management and other operational efficiencies to occur.
AMI
intends to offer extensive product offerings, including postoperative pain
management products, orthopedic devices, a full range of soft goods and
functional knee braces, uro-dynamic devices and disposables. The Company’s
products and services will offer solutions to create overall practice management
efficiencies for health care providers.
The
Company’s sole employee is Edwin Reilly, its President. The Company is in the
process of hiring, marketing, financial and operations personnel.
