REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM



Board of Directors and Stockholders
Medifast, Inc.
Owings Mills, Maryland


We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Medifast, Inc.
and subsidiaries as of December 31, 2005 and 2004, and the related consolidated
statements of income, stockholders equity, and cash flow for each of the three
years in the period ended December 31, 2005. These consolidated financial
statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our
responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial
statements based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with standards established by the Public
Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that
we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the
consolidated financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit
includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and
disclosures in the consolidated financial statements. An audit also includes
assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by
management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation.
We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present
fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of
Medifast, Inc. and subsidiaries as of December 31, 2005 and 2004, and the
consolidated results of their operations and their consolidated cash flows for
the years then ended in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted
in the United States of America.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
DECEMBER 31, 2005, 2004, AND 2003


NOTE A - BUSINESS

         Medifast, Inc. (the "Company", or "Medifast") is a Delaware
corporation, incorporated in 1980. The Company's operations are primarily
conducted through five of its wholly owned subsidiaries, Jason Pharmaceuticals,
Inc. ("Jason"), Take Shape for Life, Inc. ("TSFL"), Jason Enterprises, Inc.,

         The Company is engaged in the manufacturing and distribution of
Medifast(R) and Hi-Energy(R) branded and private label weight and disease
management products. These products are sold through various channels of
distribution, to include web, call center, independent health advisors, medical

NOTE B - SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Significant accounting policies followed in the preparation of the consolidated
financial statements are as follows:

[1] PRINCIPLES OF CONSOLIDATION AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION:

         The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the
Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries, Jason Pharmaceuticals, Inc., Take
Shape For Life, Inc., Seven Crondall Associates, LLC, Jason Properties, LLC and
Jason Enterprises, Inc. All inter-company accounts have been eliminated.

[2] CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS:

         For the purposes of the consolidated statements of cash flow, the
Company considers all highly liquid debt instruments purchased with maturity of
three months or less to be cash equivalents. At December 31, 2005, the Company
had $789,000 in a money market account, $365,000 in miscellaneous short-term
investments through Merrill Lynch that are considered cash equivalents due to
terms of maturity, and $330,000 in operating checking accounts.

         At December 31, 2004, the Company had invested in four $100,000
certificates of deposit, of which three were considered cash equivalents. In
2005, all certificates of deposit matured and were rolled into a money market
account.

NOTE B - SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES  (CONTINUED)

[3] ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE AND ALLOWANCE FOR DOUBFUL ACCOUNTS

         Accounts receivable are recorded net of reserves for sales returns and
allowances, and net of provisions for doubtful accounts. Allowances for sales
returns and discounts are based on an analysis of historical trends, and
allowances for doubtful accounts are based primarily on an analysis of aging
accounts receivable balances and on the creditworthiness of the customer as
determined by credit checks and analysis, as well as the customer's payment
history.

[4] INVENTORY:

         Inventory is stated at the lower of cost or market, utilizing the
first-in, first-out method. The cost of finished goods includes the cost of raw
materials, packaging supplies, direct and indirect labor and other indirect
manufacturing costs.

[5] ADVERTISING:

         Advertising costs such as preparation, layout, design and production of
advertising are deferred. They are expensed when the advertisement is first
used, except for the costs of executory contracts, which are amortized as
performance under the contract is received. Advertising costs deferred at
December 31, 2005 and 2004, were $585,000 and $478,000 respectively. Advertising
expense for the years ended December 31, 2005 and 2004 amounted to $3,784,000
and $1,055,000, respectively.


[6] PROPERTY, PLANT AND EQUIPMENT:

         Property, plant and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated
depreciation and amortization. The Company computes depreciation and
amortization using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of
the assets acquired as follows:

         Building and building improvements          39 years
         Equipment and fixtures                      3 - 15 years
         Vehicles                                    5 years

      The carrying amount of all long-lived assets is evaluated periodically to
determine whether adjustment to the useful life or to the unamortized balance is
warranted. Such evaluation is based principally on the expected utilization of
the long-lived assets and the projected undiscounted cash flows of the
operations in which the long-lived assets are used.

NOTE B - SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES  (CONTINUED)


[7] INCOME TAXES:

         The Company accounts for income taxes in accordance with Statements of
Financial Accounting Standards No. 109, "Accounting for Income Taxes," which
requires an asset and liability approach to financial accounting and reporting
for income taxes. Deferred income taxes and liabilities are computed annually
for differences between the financial statement and the tax basis of assets and
liabilities that will result in taxable or deductible amounts in the future
based on enacted tax laws and rates applicable to the periods in which the
differences are expected to affect taxable income. Valuation allowances are
established when necessary to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount expected
to be realized.


[8] EARNINGS PER COMMON SHARE:

         Basic earnings per share is calculated by dividing net profit
attributable to common stockholders by the weighted average number of
outstanding common shares during the year. Basic earnings per share exclude any
dilutive effects of options, warrants and other stock-based compensation, which
are included in diluted earnings per share.


[9] REVENUE:

         Revenue is recognized for product sales upon shipment and passing of
risk to the customer and when estimates of discounts, rebates, promotional
adjustments, price adjustments, returns, and other potential adjustments are
reasonably determinable, collection is reasonably assured and the Company has no
further performance obligations. These estimates are presented in the financial
statements as reductions to net revenues and accounts receivable. Estimated
sales returns, allowances and discounts are provided for.


Outbound shipping charges to customers and outbound shipping-related costs are
netted and included in "cost of sales."

Returns - Consistent with industry practice, the Company maintains a return
policy that allows its customers to return product within a specified period (30
days). Because the period of payment generally approximates the period revenue
was originally recognized, refunds are recorded as a reduction of revenue when
paid. The Company's estimate for returns is based upon its historical experience
with actual returns. While such experience has allowed for reasonable estimation
in the past, history may not always be an accurate indicator of future returns.
The Company continually monitors its estimates for returns and makes adjustments
when it believes that actual product returns may differ from the established
accruals.

NOTE B - SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES  (CONTINUED)

[10] ESTIMATES:

         The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting
principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires
management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of
assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at
the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and
expenses during the reporting periods. Actual results could differ from those
estimates.

[11] FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS:

         The carrying amounts reported in the consolidated balance sheets for
cash, certificates of deposit, accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued
liabilities approximate fair value because of the immediate or short-term
maturity of the financial instruments.

         The Company believes that its indebtedness approximates fair value
based on current yields for debt instruments with similar terms.


[12] CONCENTRATION OF CREDIT RISK:

         Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to credit
risk consist of cash, certificates of deposit, investment securities and trade
receivables. Cash, money markets and investments exceed the federal insurance
coverage by $2,248,000 and $3,525,000, respectively. The Company securities at
December 31, 2005 and 2004, include amounts deposited with multiple financial
institutions markets its products primarily to medical professionals, clinics,
and Internet medical sales and has no substantial concentrations of credit risk
in its trade receivables.

         As of December 31, 2005 and 2004, the Company had two customers that
individually represented over 10% of the accounts receivable and in the
aggregate, approximately 36% and 49% of the accounts receivable, respectively.

[13] STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION:

         The Company has adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No.
123, "Accounting for Stock Based Compensation" ("SFAS 123"). The provisions of
SFAS 123 allow companies to either expense the estimated value of stock options
or to continue to follow the intrinsic value method set forth in Accounting
Principles Bulletin Opinion No. 25, "Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees"
("APB 25"), but disclose the pro forma effects on net income (loss) had the fair
value of the options been expensed. The Company has elected to continue to apply
APB 25 in accounting for its employee stock option incentive plans. Under APB
25, where the exercise price of the Company's employee stock options equals the
market price of the underlying stock on the date of grant, no compensation is
recognized.

STOCK OPTION PLAN

         On October 9, 1993 and as amended in May 1995, the Company adopted a
stock option plan ("Plan") authorizing the grant of incentive and nonincentive
options for an aggregate of 500,000 shares of the Company's common stock to
officers, employees, directors and consultants. Incentive options are to be
granted at fair market value. Options are to be exercisable as determined by the
stock option committee.

         In November 1997, June 2002 and July 2004, the Company amended the Plan
by increasing the number of shares of the Company's common stock subject to the
Plan by an aggregate of 200,000 shares, 300,000 shares and 250,000 shares
respectively.

         The Company has elected to continue to account for stock option grants
in accordance with APB 25 and related interpretations. Under APB 25, where the
exercise price of the Company's employee stock options equals the market price
of the underlying stock on the date of grant, no compensation is recognized.

         If compensation expense for the Company's stock-based compensation
plans had been determined consistent with SFAS 123, the Company's net income and
net income per share including pro forma results would have been the amounts
indicated below:

[13] STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION: (CONTINUED)

         The pro forma effect on net income may not be representative of the pro
forma effect on net income of future years due to, among other things: (i) the
vesting period of the stock options and the (ii) fair value of additional stock
options in future years.

         For the purpose of the above table, the fair value of each option
granted is estimated as of the date of grant using the Black-Scholes
option-pricing model with the following assumptions:


                                    2005              2004                 2003

Dividend yield .............        0.0%               0.0%                0.0%
Expected volatility ........       0.70               0.40                0.40
Risk-free interest rate.....       4.50%              4.50%             3% - 5%
Expected life in years......        1-5                1-5                 1-5

         The weighted average fair value at date of grant for options granted
during the years 2005, 2004, and 2003 were $2.64, $8.60, and 5.32, respectively,
using the above assumptions.


         The following summarizes the stock option activity for the years ended
December 31:

[15] RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

        In December 2004, the FASB issued Financial Accounting Standards No. 123
(revised 2004) (FAS 123R), "Share-Based Payment, " FAS 123R replaces FAS No.
123, "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation", and supersedes APB Opinion No.
25, "Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees." FAS 123R requires compensation
expense, measured as the fair value at the grant date, related to share-based
payment transactions to be recognized in the financial statements over the
period that an employee provides service in exchange for the award. The Company
intends to adopt FAS 123R using the "modified prospective" transition method as
defined in FAS 123R. Under the modified prospective method, companies are
required to record compensation cost prospectively for the unvested portion, as
of the date of adoption, of previously issued and outstanding awards over the
remaining vesting period of such awards. FAS 123R is effective January 1, 2006.
The Company is evaluating the impact of FAS 123R on the Company's results and
financial position.

         In November 2004, the FASB issued Financial Accounting Standards No.
151 (FAS 151), "Inventory Costs - an amendment of ARB No. 43, Chapter 4". FAS
151 clarifies the accounting for abnormal amounts of idle facility expense,
freight, handling costs and spoilage. In addition, FAS 151 requires companies to
base the allocation of fixed production overhead to the costs of conversion on
the normal capacity of production facilities. FAS 151 is effective for fiscal
years beginning after June 15, 2005. FAS 151 did not have a material impact on
its results or financial statements.


[16] INVESTMENTS

         In accordance with FAS No. 115, "Accounting for Certain Investments in
Debt and Equity Securities", securities are classified into three categories:
held-to-maturity, available-for-sale and trading. The Company's investments
consist of debt and equity securities classified as available-for-sale
securities. Accordingly, they are carried at fair value in accordance with FAS
No. 115. Further, according to FAS No. 115 the unrealized holding gains and
losses for available-for-sales securities are excluded from earnings and
reported, net of deferred income taxes, as a separate component of stockholders'
equity, unless the loss is classified as other than a temporary decline in
market value.

[17] GOODWILL AND OTHER INTANGIBLE ASSETS

In June 2001, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Statement
No. 142 "Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets". This statement addresses
financial accounting and reporting for acquired goodwill and other intangible
assets and supersedes APB Opinion No. 17, "Intangible Assets". It addresses how
intangible assets that are acquired individually or with a group of other assets
(but not those acquired in a business combination) should be accounted for in
financial statements upon their acquisition. This Statement also addresses how
goodwill and other intangible assets should be accounted

for after they have been initially recognized in the financial statements. The
Company, in its acquisitions, recognized $893,850 of goodwill. The Company
performs its annual impairment test for goodwill at year-end. As of December 31,
2005, the Company has determined that there is no impairment of its goodwill.

In addition, the Company has acquired other intangible assets, which include:
customer lists, non-compete agreements, trademarks and patents. The non-compete
agreements are being amortized over the legal life of the agreements ranging
between 3 to 7 years. The customer lists are being amortized over a period
ranging between 5 to 10 years based on management's best estimate of the
expected benefits to be consumed or otherwise used up. Trademarks and patents
are regularly reviewed to determine whether the facts and circumstances exist to
indicate that the useful life is shorter than originally estimated or the
carrying amount of the assets may not be recoverable. The Company assesses the
recoverability of its trademarks and patents by comparing the projected
discounted net cash flows associated with the related asset, over their
remaining lives, in comparison to their respective carrying amounts. Impairment,
if any, is based on the excess of the carrying amount over the fair value of
those assets.


[18] COMPREHENSIVE INCOME (LOSS)

Comprehensive income (loss) is defined as the change in equity of a business
enterprise during a period from transactions and other events and circumstances
from non-owner sources, including unrealized gains and losses on marketable
securities. The Company presents comprehensive income in its consolidated
statements of stockholders equity.

[19] RECLASSIFICATIONS

         Certain amounts for the years ended December 31, 2004 and 2003 have
been reclassified to conform to the presentation of the December 31, 2005
amounts. The reclassifications have no effect on net income for the years ended
December 31, 2004 and 2003.

NOTE K - EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENTS

         The CEO of Medifast, Inc., Bradley T. MacDonald, has a two-year
employment agreement for an aggregate annual base salary of $225,000 with a
bonus potential of 50% of base salary provided the Company makes its profit plan
per the Board approved forecast. This contract has been extended to December 31,
2007. Due to the inequities of funding a retirement plan in the 401K, and in
recognition of the performance responsible for the turnaround of the Company,
the Board of Directors approved a Selective Executive Retirement Compensation
Plan funded by the form of deferred compensation. The Deferred Compensation Plan
will be funded up to $350,000 by a dollar for dollar match program, having Mr.
MacDonald defer $175,000, followed by a Company match of $175,000. In June 2004,
the Board of Directors authorized an additional $50,000 to be deferred by Mr.
MacDonald followed by a Company match of $50,000. In 2005, the Board of
Directors approved the funding of $100,000 into Mr. MacDonald's Selective
Executive Retirement Compensation Plan. This brought the Selective Executive
Retirement Compensation Plan total funded value to $550,000. Beginning January
1, 2006 the agreement was modified whereby the deferred compensation will be
earned over a 5-year vesting period due January 1, 2011. Mr. MacDonald exercised

ITEM 1. BUSINESS.

SUMMARY

         Medifast, Inc. (the "Company", or "Medifast") is a Delaware
corporation, incorporated in 1980. The Company's operations are primarily
conducted through five of its wholly owned subsidiaries, Jason Pharmaceuticals,
Inc. ("Jason"), Take Shape for Life, Inc. ("TSFL"), Jason Enterprises, Inc.,
Jason Properties, LLC and Seven Crondall, LLC. The Company is engaged in the
production, distribution, and sale of weight management and disease management
products and other consumable health and diet products. Medifast, Inc.'s product
lines include weight and disease management, meal replacement and sports
nutrition products manufactured in a modern, FDA approved facility in Owings
Mills, Maryland.


MARKETS

         Over the past 20 years the obesity rates in the United States have
increased dramatically. The Centers for Disease Control (CDC) estimate that 64%
of the U.S. adult population is overweight, and 30% of these individuals (60
million) are obese which is defined as having a Body Mass Index >30. The amount
of overweight adolescents and children ages 6-19 years have more than tripled
since 1980. Currently, the CDC estimates that over 30% of adolescents and
children are overweight.

         The CDC estimates that in the U.S. the associated costs with overweight
and obesity reached $117 billion in 2000. The most common health problems
associated with obesity are type II diabetes, coronary heart disease,
hypertension and stroke, depression and certain forms of cancer. It's also
estimated that poor nutrition and physical inactivity account for more than
300,000 premature deaths per year in the U.S.

         A 2003 market research study concluded consumers spend about $39
billion per year trying to lose weight or prevent weight gain. This includes
consumer spending on diet foods, medically supervised and commercial weight loss
programs, diet books, appetite suppressants, fitness clubs, diet sodas, and
videos and cassettes.

DISTRIBUTION CHANNELS

THE MEDIFAST LIFESTYLES PROGRAM- The Medifast Lifestyles Program is a medically
supported network of health care professionals who support patients on the
Medifast program. Patients order products directly from Medifast's website or
toll-free number. The Lifestyles medical practitioner ensures that each patient
receives personalized attention throughout the weight loss program. Management
estimates that more than 15,000 physicians nationwide have prescribed Medifast
as a treatment for their overweight patients since 1980, and over an estimated 1
million patients have used its' products to lose and maintain their weight.
Direct-to-consumer sales represent approximately 45% of Medifast, Inc.'s total
sales.

         The Company maintains an in-house Lifestyles support program for
customers who have a Medifast physician who does not have the time to provide
counseling support. The Company also offers an additional in-house support
program to assist customers that are consulting their primary care physician.
Customers have access to qualified nutritional counselors for program support
and advice via a toll free telephone help line or by e-mail.

                                       3

TAKE SHAPE FOR LIFE(TM) - Take Shape for Life is a physician led network of
independent health coaches who are specifically trained to provide emotional
support and are conduits to give clients the strategies and skills to
successfully reach a healthy weight and then provide a road map to empower the
individual to take control of their health. Take Shape for Life is a support
program that moves beyond the scope of weight loss to show customers how to
achieve optimal health through the balance of body, mind, and finances. Take
Shape for Life uses the high quality, medically validated products of Medifast
as the platform to launch an integrity based lifelong health optimization
program.

         Program entrants are encouraged to consult with their primary care
physician and a Take Shape for Life Health Advisor to determine the Medifast
program that is right for them. Physician directed Health Advisors are
supported, educated and qualified by The Health Institute, a training group
staffed by Medifast professionals. Health Advisors obtain Medifast qualification
based upon testing of their knowledge on Medifast products and programs.

         Take Shape for Life accounts for approximately 35% of Medifast, Inc.'s
total sales.

MEDIFAST PHYSICIANS AND CLINICS - Many Medifast physicians have chosen to
implement the Medifast program within their practice. These physicians carry an
inventory of Medifast products and resell them to patients. They also provide
appropriate testing, medical support and evaluations for patients on the
program. Physicians can also direct their patients to order directly from
Medifast, if they do not have space to stock inventory. Physician sales account
for approximately 10% of Medifast, Inc.'s total sales.


HI-ENERGY WEIGHT CONTROL CENTERS - In 2003, the Company acquired Hi-Energy
Weight Control Centers, a national company specializing in weight management
programs, with weight loss centers in over 50 locations. Hi-Energy Weight
Control Centers offer a competitive marketing edge through a regional
advertising program, exclusive territories and marketing support. The Company
continues to seek out qualified licensees to add to its growing number of weight
control clinics nationwide. Additionally, the Company is operating 11
corporately owned clinics that serve as models to attract qualified licensees.
Hi-Energy clinics account for approximately 7% of Medifast, Inc.'s total sales.


THE MEDIFAST(R) BRAND

         Medifast is a medically supervised weight management program, which
specializes in multidisciplinary patient education programs using the highest
quality meal replacement supplements. In recent years Medifast's core products
and programs have continued to expand over a wellness spectrum to include health
management products. Medifast offers products specially formulated for diabetics
as well as products for women's health, joint health and coronary health.

         In 2003, Medifast began a two-year study with The Johns Hopkins
Bloomberg School of Public Health to evaluate the efficacy of its Medifast Plus
for Diabetics compared to basic nutrition recommendations by the American
Diabetes Association (ADA). Final results showed that participants using
Medifast Plus for Diabetics lost twice as much weight and were twice as able to
stay on the program as those following the ADA's guidelines. Additionally,
two-thirds of those on the Medifast program lost at least 5% of their weight,
which is a standard measure of the Food and Drug Administration's (FDA)
threshold to indicate clinically significant weight loss, versus one-quarter of
those on the ADA diet. In addition to weight loss, the initial study results
indicate that Medifast participants sustained an average 9% decrease in blood
fasting glucose and an average 19% decrease in insulin levels.

                                       4
<PAGE>

         Many Medifast Plus for Diabetics products have earned the coveted Seal
of Approval from the Glycemic Research Institute. The line, designated as Low
Glycemic, does not overly stimulate blood glucose and insulin and does not
stimulate fat-storing enzymes. Products included in the Medifast Plus for
Diabetics line consist of three delicious patented shakes, home style chili,
apple cinnamon, French vanilla berry oatmeal, maple and brown sugar oatmeal,
creamy chicken soup, creamy broccoli soup, chicken noodle soup, minestrone soup
and two snack bars.

         Most Medifast products qualify to make the FDA's heart healthy claim,
"May Reduce the Risk of Heart Disease." In order to make this claim, a product
must contain at least 6.25 grams of soy protein per serving and be low in fat,
saturated fat, and cholesterol. Unlike popular fad diets and herbal supplements,
Medifast products are a safe, nutritionally balanced choice, offering gender
specific formulas containing high protein and low carbohydrates, a soy protein
source rather than animal protein source, and vitamin and mineral fortification.
It is very difficult to meet the minimum recommended nutritional requirements on
a low-calorie diet, but a dieter can easily meet these requirements using the
nutrient dense Medifast brand of meal replacement food supplements.

         Medically supervised, low calorie diets are continuing to gain
popularity, as consumers search for a safe and effective solution that provides
balanced nutrition, quick weight loss and valuable behavior modification
education. In addition, consumers are becoming more aware of chronic diseases
such as diabetes and coronary health.


COMPETITION
         There are many different kinds of diet products and programs within the
weight loss industry. These include a wide variety of commercial weight loss
programs, pharmaceutical products, weight loss books, self-help diets, dietary
supplements, appetite suppressants and meal replacement shakes and bars.

         The Company has proven it can compete in this competitive market
because its products have been clinically tested and proven at Johns Hopkins
University and have been safely and effectively used by customers for over 20
years. Medifast has been on the cutting edge of product development with soy
based nutritional and weight management products since 1989. These products are
formulated with high-quality, low-calorie, low-fat ingredients that provide
alternatives to fad diets or medicinal weight loss remedies.

         The Medifast program has been recommended by physicians for more than
25 years and some Medifast practitioners choose to prescribe appetite
suppression diet drugs to patients in conjunction with a Medifast based diet.
Diet drug therapies such as those that suppress appetite usually require a
restricted calorie diet in order to obtain desired results. Medifast is a
dosage/portion controlled weight management solution that is effective in
conjunction with drug therapy as prescribed by physicians working within the
individual needs of their patients. The Medifast program alone is a mild
ketogenic diet that naturally suppresses appetite and eliminates hunger without
other therapies for most people.


PRODUCTS

         The Company offers a variety of weight and disease management products
under the Medifast(R) brand and for select private label customers. The Medifast
line includes Medifast(R) 55, Medifast(R) 70, Medifast(R) Plus for Appetite
Suppression, Medifast(R) Plus for Diabetics, Medifast(R) Plus for Joint Health,
Medifast(R) Plus for Women's Health, Medifast(R) Plus for Coronary Health,
Medifast(R) Fit!, Medifast(R) Take ShapeTM, Medifast(R) Supplement Bars,
Medifast(R) Creamy Soups, Medifast(R) Minestrone Soup, Medifast(R) Hot Cocoa,
Medifast(R) Oatmeals, Medifast(R) Pro Teas, Medifast(R) Chicken Noodle Soup,
Medifast(R) Fast Soups, Medifast(R) Homestyle Chili and Medifast(R) Multigrain
Crackers.

                                       5
<PAGE>

         Medifast nutritional products are formulated with high-quality,
low-calorie, low-fat ingredients. Many Medifast products are soy based and
contain 24 vitamins and minerals, as well as other nutrients essential for good
health. The Company uses DuPont Protein Technologies' Supro(R) brand soy
protein, which is a high-quality complete protein derived from soybeans.

         Medifast brand awareness continues to expand through the Company's
marketing campaigns, product development, line extensions, and the Company's
emphasis on quality customer service, technical support and publications
developed by the Company's marketing staff. Medifast products have been proven
to be effective for weight and disease management in clinical studies conducted
by the U.S. government and Johns Hopkins University. The Company has continued
to develop its sales and marketing operations with qualified management and
innovative programs. The Company's facility in Owings Mills, MD manufactures
powders and a portion of its supplement bars and subcontracts the production of
its Ready-to-Drink products and additional bars.


NEW PRODUCTS

         The Company expanded the Medifast product line in 2005 by introducing
Medifast(R) Banana Creme Shake, Medifast(R) Peach Oatmeal, Medifast(R) Beef
Vegetable Stew, Medifast(R) Red Bell Pepper Italian dressing, and Medifast(R)
Ranch dressing. Medifast also introduced a line of diabetic products that
includes shakes and bars under the Medifast(R) Maintain line.

MARKETING

         The Company continued to build and leverage its core Medifast brand
through multiple marketing strategies to its target audiences. Print
advertising, television, and radio were all used to target new customers by
stressing Medifast's quick, easy and safe approach to weight management. Also,
direct mail has been utilized to encourage and support existing customers.

         Online advertising began to be used in 2004 and it included keyword
search, banner ads, affiliate programs, and targeted direct email campaigns. The
online advertising has been supported by Medifast's well designed, user-friendly
website, which provides a wealth of information and customer support for easy
ordering functionality.


SALES

The Company's Sales division handles three primary areas:

Physician and Clinic Sales-- The sales team is responsible for prospecting
larger medical accounts, clinics, hospitals, and HMOs. During 2005, the sales
team attended a number of medical professional trade shows, which expanded
Medifast's penetration of the clinical business segment.

Hi-Energy Weight Control Centers-- During 2005 Hi-Energy provided ongoing
support to its licensees as well as to the Company's 11 corporately owned
centers which opened at the end of 2004. This support included marketing
materials, ads, on-site trainings, fitness programs, nutritional programs and
clinical operation materials and forms. Employees attended professional trade
shows, prospected new licensees, and partnered with area physicians to provide
Hi-Energy programs and services to local hospitals and private practices.

Take Shape for Life-- Provides a sales force of independent Health Advisors who
support patients and their primary care physicians with a defined support
program. Take Shape for Life is a support program that moves beyond the scope of
weight loss to show customers how to achieve optimal health through the balance
of body, mind, and finances..

MANUFACTURING

         Jason Pharmaceuticals, Inc., the Company's wholly owned manufacturing
subsidiary, produces over 80% of the Medifast products in a state-of-the-art
food and pharmaceutical-grade facility in Owings Mills, Maryland. Management
purchased the plant in July 2002 for $3.4 million.

         The manufacturing facility has the capacity for significant increases
to its production output with minimal capital expenditures. Adding additional
shifts, along with minor capital expenditures for machinery would enable the
Company to produce enough products to generate over $200 million in sales.

         Manufacturing processes, product labeling, quality control and
equipment are subject to regulations and inspections mandated by the Food & Drug
Administration (FDA), the Maryland State Department of Health and Hygiene, and
the Baltimore County Department of Health. The plant strictly adheres to all GMP
practices and has maintained its status as an "OU" (Orthodox Union)
kosher-approved facility since 1982.


GOVERNMENTAL REGULATION HISTORY

         The formulation, processing, packaging, labeling and advertising of the
Company's products are subject to regulation by several federal agencies, but
principally by the Food and Drug Administration (the "FDA"). The Company must
comply with the standards, labeling and packaging requirements imposed by the
FDA for the marketing and sale of medical foods, vitamins, and nutritional
products. Applicable regulations prevent the Company from representing in its
literature and labeling that its products produce or create medicinal effects or
possess drug-related characteristics. The FDA could, in certain circumstances,
require the reformulation of certain products to meet new standards, require the
recall or discontinuation of certain products not capable of reformulation, or
require additional record keeping, expanded documentation of the properties of
certain products, expanded or different labeling, and scientific substantiation.
If the FDA believes the products are unapproved drugs or food additives, the FDA
may initiate similar enforcement proceedings. Any or all such requirements could
adversely affect the Company's operations and its financial condition.

         The FDA also requires "medical food" labeling to list the name and
quantity of each ingredient and identify the product as a "weight
management/modified fasting or fasting supplement" in the labeling.

         To the extent that sales of vitamins, diet, or nutritional supplements
may constitute improper trade practices or endanger the safety of consumers, the
operations of the Company may also be subject to the regulations and enforcement
powers of the Federal Trade Commission ("FTC"), and the Consumer Product Safety
Commission. The Company's activities are also regulated by various agencies of
the states and localities in which the Company's products are sold. The
Company's products are manufactured and packaged in accordance with customers'
specifications and sold under their private labels both domestically and in
foreign countries through independent distribution channels.

PRODUCT LIABILITY AND INSURANCE

         The Company, like other producers and distributors of ingested
products, faces an inherent risk of exposure to product liability claims in the
event that, among other things, the use of its products results in injury. The
Company maintains insurance against product liability claims with respect to the
products it manufactures. With respect to the retail and direct marketing
distribution of products produced by others, the Company's principal form of
insurance consists of arrangements with each of its suppliers of those products
to name the Company as beneficiary on each of such vendor's product liability
insurance policies. The Company does not buy products from suppliers who do not
maintain such coverage.

EMPLOYEES

         As of December 31, 2005, the Company employed 164 full-time and
contracted employees, of whom 62 were engaged in manufacturing, warehouse
management, and shipping, and 102 in marketing, administrative, call center and
corporate support functions. None of the employees are subject to a collective
bargaining agreement with the Company.

ITEM 2. DESCRIPTION OF PROPERTY

         The Company owns a 49,000 square-foot facility in Owings Mills,
Maryland, which contains its Corporate Headquarters and manufacturing plant. In
2003, the Company purchased a state-of-the-art 119,000 square-foot distribution
facility in Ridgely, Maryland. The facility gives the Company the ability to
distribute over $200 million of Medifast product sales per year. In 2004, the
Company purchased a 3,000 square foot conference and training facility in Ocean
City, Maryland. The facility will be used to conduct corporate training
meetings, Board of Director Meetings and employee morale and wellness programs.
The Company has 11 leases for its corporately owned Hi-Energy Weight Control
clinics throughout Florida, Arkansas, Mississippi and Texas. The leases range in
terms from one to five years.

ITEM 3. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS.

         There were no material pending legal matters as of 12/31/05.


ITEM 4. SUBMISSION OF MATTERS TO A VOTE OF SECURITY HOLDERS

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


FORWARD LOOKING STATEMENTS

         This document contains forward-looking statements which may involve
known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors that may cause
Medifast, Inc. actual results and performance in future periods to be materially
different from any future results or performance suggested by these statements.
Medifast, Inc. cautions investors not to place undue reliance on forward-looking
statements, which speak only to management's expectations on this date.

2005 COMPARISON WITH 2004

OPERATING

         Consolidated net sales for 2005 were $40,129,000 as compared to 2004
sales of $27,340,000, an increase of $12,789,000, or 47%. A major reason for the
revenue increase for the Company is attributed to the continued success of
direct sales to consumers as well as the expansion of the Take Shape for Life
division. The increase in direct sales was attributed to an expanded direct
marketing campaign via print, mail, web and television to drive customers to the
call center and website. Through the effectiveness of our online ads and
improved web branding a higher percentage of customers ordered on the Company's
website in 2005. In addition, the company expanded it remarketing campaign to
drive new customers to the call center and website. The Take Shape for Life
division added a Take Shape for Life replicating website option for Health
Advisors, an Internet distribution program for their customers, and provided
health advisors with additional sponsoring tools to make training and recruiting
easier. These have proven to be effective at generating revenues and recruiting
Health Advisors into the Take Shape for Life Network. The increased training and
recruitment initiatives in 2005 have resulted in the expansion of the sales
network into additional locations as well as growth in current locations.

                                       12
<PAGE>

         Cost of sales increased from 6,746,000 in 2004 to $10,161,000 in 2005,
an increase of $3,415,000. As a percentage of sales, cost of goods sold
increased slightly due to increased fuel charges charged by the major shipping
companies. Gross margin was 75% at December 31, 2005 and 2004.

         Selling, general and administrative (SG&A) expenses of $25,894,000 for
2005 were $8,304,000 more than the $17,590,000 in 2004, due to increased costs
associated with the increased scale of the business. The company increased its
advertising expense to include additional print and web advertising as well as
strategic testing of television advertising. In 2005, Company experienced income
from operations of $4,074,000. This compares with income from operations of
$3,004,000 in 2004, an increase of 36%. The increase in income is primarily due
to higher gross profit from increased revenue offset by higher general and
administrative expenses.

         In 2005, the Company realized a tax expense of $1,203,000, as compared
to a tax expense of $1,159,000 in 2004. The slight increase in tax expense
despite the increase in sales is due to timing differences between book and tax
purposes for intangible assets, and other temporary and permanent differences.
Interest expense increased to $317,000 in 2005, as compared to $245,000 in 2004.
This increase was due to a full year of interest expense paid on a new loan
acquired in 2004.

The Company reported net income of $2,436,000, or $0.20 per basic share ($0.19
per diluted share), versus $1,729,000 or $0.16 per basic share ($0.14 per
diluted share), with a dilution increase of 368,000 shares. Earnings per share
were effected by the interest associated with the conversion of the Series "B"
preferred stock. This conversion included a $260,000 stock dividend on Series
"B" preferred stock and a $19,000 stock dividend on Series "C" preferred stock.
As of December 31, 2005 all Series "B" and Series "C" preferred stock have been
converted to common stock and included in the weighed average diluted shares.
There will be no additional stock dividend payments.


LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

         At December 31, 2005, the Company had net working capital of
$9,996,000, an increase of $2,531,000 from the $7,465,000 net working capital
balance at December 31, 2004. Cash and investment securities at December 31,
2005 were $4,184,000. In November 2005, Medifast, Inc.'s wholly owned subsidiary
Jason Pharmaceuticals, Inc. renewed its $5,000,000 Secured Line of Credit from
Mercantile Safe-Deposit and Trust of Baltimore, Maryland. The line of credit is
at LIBOR plus 1.3 percent. The increased line may be used to finance equipment,
inventory, and receivables of Medifast, Inc. The Company currently has no
off-balance sheet arrangements.

         In the year ended December 31, 2005, the Company generated cash flow of
$3,213,000 from operations, primarily attributable to higher operating income.
This was offset by net changes in operating assets and liabilities that
decreased cash flow by $2,065,000. The largest uses of cash were for the
purchase of inventory and prepaid expenses, which primarily consisted of prepaid
taxes, insurance, and advertising.

         In the year ended December 31, 2005, net cash used in investing
activities was $2,032,000, which primarily consisted of the purchase of
intangible assets and purchases of property and equipment.

         In the year ended December 31, 2005, net cash used in financing
activities was $309,000, representing the principal repayments of long-term debt
and purchase of treasury stock offset by an increase in the line of credit.
Medifast, Inc. purchased 110,000 shares of its common stock from October 6,
through October 17, 2005 at an average price of $4.03 per share, aggregating
$452,000.

                                       13
<PAGE>

         In pursuing its business strategy, the Company may require additional
cash for operating and investing activities. The Company expects future cash
requirements, if any, to be funded from operating cash flow and cash flow from
financing activities.

There are no current plans or discussions in process relating to any material
acquisition that is probable in the foreseeable future.


2004 COMPARISON WITH 2003


OPERATING

         Consolidated net sales for 2004 were $27,340,000 as compared to 2003
sales of $25,379,000, an increase of $1,961,000, or 8%. A major reason for the
revenue increase for the Company is attributed to the continued success from the
Take Shape for Life division, national advertising, the Hi-Energy acquisition
and the redesigned website. The Take Shape for Life division added a Take Shape
for Life replicating website option for Health Advisors, an Internet
distribution program for their customers, as well as the new Tasting Party
Program. These have proven to be effective at generating revenues and recruiting
Health Advisors into the Take Shape for Life Network. The national advertising
campaign included print, TV, radio, direct mail and web marketing. The Company
increased its Internet sales in 2004 as compared to 2003, by redesigning its
website and increasing its web marketing. The redesigned website created an easy
to use shopping cart and a more user-friendly interface. The acquisition of
Hi-Energy Weight Control Centers contributed to revenues throughout 2004.

         Cost of sales decreased from $6,825,000 in 2003 compared to $6,746,000
in 2004, a decrease of $79,000. The decrease is attributed to decreases in costs
through economies of scale.

         Gross margins increased to 75% in 2004 from 73% in 2003. This was
largely due to greater economies of scale as a result of the acquisition of the
Company's 119,000 square foot distribution facility thereby creating higher
margins of the Medifast products through purchasing capabilities. The increase
is also attributed to the increased margin of Medifast direct and Internet sales
directly to patients via the Lifestyles and Take Shape for Life programs.
Selling, general and administrative (SG&A) expenses of $17,590,000 for 2004 were
$2,634,000 more than the $14,956,000 in 2003, due to increased advertising
expenses to include television advertising, celebrity endorsements, expenses
involved with starting and operating new corporately owned Hi-Energy Weight
Control Clinic locations, the expansion of the Take Shape for Life commissioned
sales organization, and overall corporate infrastructure improvements. The
Company experienced income from operations for the year 2004 of $3,004,000. This
compares with income from operations of $3,598,000 in 2003, a decrease of 17%.

         In 2004, the Company realized a tax expense of $1,159,000, as compared
to a tax expense of $1,148,000 in 2003 as a result of the elimination of the
deferred tax asset and the net operating loss for income tax purposes. Interest
expense increased to $245,000 in 2004, as compared to $154,000 in 2003. This
increase was due to a complete year of additional debt, which was acquired in
2003.

         A preferred stock dividend in the amount of $18,000 was expensed to
shareholders in 2004.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

         As of December 31, 2004, the Company had net working capital of
$7,465,000, a decrease of $1,933,000 from the $9,398,000 net working capital
balance at December 31, 2003. Cash and investment securities at December 31,
2004 were $3,238,000. On November 7, 2003 Medifast, Inc.'s wholly owned
subsidiary Jason Pharmaceuticals, Inc. increased its Secured Line of Credit from
$1,000,000 to $5,000,000 from Mercantile Safe-Deposit and Trust of Baltimore,
Maryland. The line of credit is at LIBOR plus two percent. The increased line
may be used to finance equipment, inventory, and receivables of Medifast, Inc.
The Company currently has no off-balance sheet arrangements.

      In the year ended December 31, 2004, the Company generated cash flow of
$1,902,000 from operations, primarily attributable to higher operating income,
non-cash expenditures for depreciation and amortization and purchases of
inventory and the pay down of accounts payable and accrued expenses.

      In the year ended December 31, 2004, net cash used in investing activities
was $3,510,000, which primarily consisted of the purchase of intangible assets,
purchase of property and equipment, and the purchase of a building.

      In the year ended December 31, 2004, net cash used in financing activities
was $304,000, representing the principal repayments of long-term debt.

      In pursuing its business strategy, the Company may require additional cash
for operating and investing activities. The Company expects future cash
requirements, if any, to be funded from operating cash flow and cash flow from
financing activities.

      There are no current plans or discussions in process relating to any
material acquisition that is probable in the foreseeable future

         On June 11, 2003 Jason Enterprises, Inc. acquired the assets of
Consumers Choice Systems, Inc., a Delaware Corporation. The Company obtained all
the assets of the business that support their retail and international business
including the distribution rights in 18,000 retail food and drug stores. Jason
Enterprises, Inc. acquired the assets for 76,120 shares of Medifast, Inc.
restricted common stock and 50,000 five-year warrants at a purchase price of
$10.00 per share. The transaction will be accounted for as an asset purchase
transaction. The Company is expecting to record limited and selected liabilities
that amount to approximately $1.35 million.

         On July 25, 2003, the Company announced that it had sold an aggregate
of 550,000 shares of common stock and warrants to purchase 82,500 shares of
common stock (the "PIPE Shares") to Mainfield Enterprises, Inc. and Portside
Growth & Opportunity Fund. The shares of common stock were sold for a cash
consideration of $12.40 per share, or a total of $6,820,000, and the warrants,
exercisable for a period of five years from the date of issuance, at an exercise
price equal to one hundred fifteen percent (115%) of the five-day volume
weighted average price (the "PIPE Transaction"), all pursuant to the terms of
that certain Securities Purchase Agreement by and between the Company and
Mainfield Enterprises, Inc. and Portside Growth & Opportunity Fund dated as of
July 24, 2003 (the "Securities Purchase Agreement").

         On September 12, 2003 Medifast, Inc.'s wholly owned subsidiary Seven
Crondall, LLC purchased a 119,825 sq. foot distribution facility located at 601
Sunrise Ave., Ridgely, Maryland 21660 from New Roads, Inc. for $2,200,000. The
Company financed $1,760,000 through Merrill Lynch Capital at the 30 day LIBOR
interest rate plus 220 basis points over seven years.

                                       15

         On November 7, 2003 Medifast, Inc.'s wholly owned subsidiary Jason
Properties, LLC purchased the assets of Hi-Energy Weight Control Centers,
located in Gulf Breeze, Florida. The acquisition includes equipment, inventory,
trademarks, and licenses for fifty Hi-Energy clinics. The clinics are located
primarily in the southeastern region of the United States. The assets were
purchased for $1,500,000 in cash, which included selected liabilities, capital
expenditures, costs of assets and miscellaneous fees.

SEASONALITY

The Company's weight management products and programs have historically been
subject to seasonality. Traditionally the holiday season in November/December of
each year is considered poor for diet control products and services. January and
February generally show increases in sales, as these months are considered the
commencement of the "diet season." The Company did not experience the same
degree of seasonality in 2005. This is largely due to the increase in the
consumer's awareness of the overall health and nutritional benefits accompanied
with the use of the Company's product line. As consumers continue to increase
their association of nutritional weight loss programs with overall health,
seasonality will continue to decrease.

INFLATION

         To date, inflation has not had a material effect on the Company's
business.


INFORMATION SYSTEMS INFRASTRUCTURE

In November of 2005, the Company began an IT project to implement an Enterprise
Resource Planning solution to upgrade our technology infrastructure and improve
manufacturing and business processes. The new IT infrastructure will enable the
Company to handle additional business growth and improve the efficiencies across
the business platform. In addition, the Company is implementing new software for
the Take Shape for Life direct selling network. The software will transform and
empower Take Shape for Life's direct sales model by implementing the
infrastructure, tools, and support critical to increasing competitive advantage,
improving expansion and proliferation of the direct selling channel,
facilitating support, success, and growth of the independent Health Advisor
network, and meeting the evolving needs of Take Shape for Life's customers.

STOCK OPTIONS

         The Company's 1993 Employee Stock Option Plan (the "Plan"), as amended
in July 1995, December 1997, June 2002, and again in July 2003 authorizes the
issuance of options for 1,250,000 shares of Common Stock. The Plan authorizes
the Board of Directors or the Compensation Committee appointed by the Board to
grant incentive stock options and non-incentive stock options to officers, key
employees, directors, and independent consultants, with directors who are not
employees and consultants eligible only to receive non-incentive stock options.
Employee stock options are vested over 2 years.

         * The following tables set forth pertinent information as of December
31, 2005 with respect to options granted under the Plan since its inception to
the persons set forth under the Summary Compensation Table, all current
executive officers as a group and all current Directors who are not executive
officers as a group of the Company. In addition, a chart listing option holders,
grants made in FY 2005, and a list of aggregated options and the value of these
options, is provided.

               CERTIFICATION PURSUANT TO RULE 13a-14(a)/15d-14(a)

I, Bradley T. MacDonald, certify that:

1.   I have reviewed this report on Form 10-K of Medifast, Inc.;
2.   Based on my knowledge, this report does not contain any untrue statement of
     a material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary to make the
     statements made, in light of the circumstances under which such statements
     were made, not misleading with respect to the period covered by this
     report;

3.   Based on my knowledge, the financial statements, and other financial
     information included in this report, fairly present in all material
     respects the financial condition, results of operations and cash flows of
     the registrant as of, and for, the periods presented in this report;

4.   I am responsible for establishing and maintaining disclosure controls and
     procedures (as defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e)) for
     the registrant and have:

     (a)  Designed such disclosure controls and procedures, or caused such
          disclosure controls and procedures to be designed under our
          supervision, to ensure that material information relating to the
          registrant, including its consolidated subsidiaries, is made known to
          us by others within those entities, particularly during the period in
          which this report is being prepared;

     (b)  Evaluated the effectiveness of the registrant's disclosure controls
          and procedures and presented in this report our conclusions about the
          effectiveness of the disclosure controls and procedures, as of the end
          of the period covered by this report based on such evaluation; and

     (c)  Disclosed in this report any change in the registrant's internal
          control over financial reporting that occurred during the registrant's
          most recent fiscal quarter (the registrant's fourth fiscal quarter in
          the case of an annual report) that has materially affected, or is
          reasonably likely to materially affect, the registrant's internal
          control over financial reporting; and

5.   I have disclosed, based on my most recent evaluation of internal control
     over financial reporting, to the registrant's auditors and the audit
     committee of the registrant's board of directors (or persons performing the
     equivalent functions):

     (a)  All significant deficiencies and material weaknesses in the design or
          operation of internal control over financial reporting which are
          reasonably likely to adversely affect the registrant's ability to
          record, process, summarize and report financial information; and

     (b)  Any fraud, whether or not material, that involves management or other
          employees who have a significant role in the registrant's internal
          control over financial reporting.
