NOTE 1 - NATURE OF BUSINESS

ADM Tronics Unlimited, Inc. (“we”, “us”, the “Company” or “ADM”), was incorporated under the laws of the state of Delaware on November 24, 1969. We are a manufacturing and engineering concern whose principal lines of business are the design, manufacture, and sale of electronics of our own products or on a contract manufacturing basis; the production and sale of chemical and antistatic products; and, research, development and engineering services.

Electronic equipment is manufactured in accordance with customer specifications on a contract basis. Our electronic device product line consists principally of proprietary devices used in diagnostics and therapeutics of humans and animals and electronic controllers for spas and hot tubs. These products are sold to customers located principally in the United States. We are registered with the FDA as a contract manufacturing facility and we manufacture medical devices for customers in accordance with their designs and specifications. Our chemical product line is principally comprised of water-based chemical products used in the food packaging and converting industries, and anti-static conductive paints, coatings and other products. These products are sold to customers located in the United States, Australia, Asia and Europe. We also provide research, development, regulatory, and engineering services to customers. Our Sonotron Medical Systems, Inc. subsidiary (“Sonotron”) is involved in medical electronic therapeutic technology.

NOTE 2 - SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared by ADM pursuant to accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) and the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) including Form 10-Q and Regulation S-X. The information furnished herein reflects all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals and adjustments) which are, in the opinion of management, necessary to fairly present the condensed financial position and operating results for the respective periods. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally present in annual financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP have been omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. These condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and explanatory notes for the year ended March 31, 2023 as disclosed in our annual report on Form 10-K for that year. Unaudited interim results are not necessarily indicative of the results for the full fiscal year ending March 31, 2023. The consolidated balance sheet as of March 31, 2022 was derived from the audited consolidated financial statements as of and for the year then ended.

PRINCIPLES OF CONSOLIDATION

The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of ADM Tronics Unlimited, Inc. and its wholly owned subsidiary, Sonotron (the “Company”). All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

USE OF ESTIMATES

These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with GAAP and, accordingly, requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and related disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities. Significant estimates made by management include expected economic life and value of our deferred tax assets and related valuation allowance, write down of inventory, impairment of long-lived assets, allowance for doubtful accounts, and warranty reserves. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

For certain of our financial instruments, including accounts receivable, accounts payable, and accrued expenses, the carrying amounts approximate the fair value due to their relatively short maturities.

CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS

Cash equivalents are comprised of highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less when purchased. We maintain our cash in bank deposit accounts, which at times, may exceed federally insured limits. We have not experienced any losses to date as a result of this policy. Cash and cash equivalents held in these accounts are currently insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) up to a maximum of $250,000. At June 30, 2023 and March 31, 2023, approximately $595,000 and $638,000, respectively, exceeded the FDIC limit.

ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE AND ALLOWANCE FOR DOUBTFUL ACCOUNTS

Accounts receivable are stated at the amount management expects to collect from outstanding balances. The carrying amounts of accounts receivable is reduced by a valuation allowance that reflects management's best estimate of the amounts that will not be collected. Management individually reviews all accounts receivable balances that exceed the due date and estimates the portion, if any, of the balance that will be collected. Management provides for probable uncollectible amounts through a charge to expenses and a credit to a valuation allowance, based on its assessment of the current status of individual accounts. Balances that are still outstanding after management has used reasonable collection efforts are written off through a charge to the valuation allowance and a credit to accounts receivable.

REVENUE RECOGNITION

ELECTRONICS:

We recognize revenue from the sale of our electronic products when they are shipped to the purchaser. We offer a limited 90-day warranty on our electronics products and contract manufacturing, and a limited 5-year warranty on our electronic controllers for spas and hot tubs. Historically, the amount of warranty expense included in sales of our electronic products have been de minimis. We have no other post shipment obligations. For contract manufacturing, revenues are recognized after shipments of the completed products.

Amounts received from customers in advance of our satisfaction of applicable performance obligations are recorded as customer deposits. Such amounts are recognized as revenues when the related performance obligations are satisfied. Customer deposits of approximately $27,000 and $39,000 were recognized as revenues during the three months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively.

CHEMICAL PRODUCTS:

Revenues are recognized when products are shipped to end users. Shipments to distributors are recognized as revenue when no right of return exists.

ENGINEERING SERVICES:

We provide certain engineering services, including research, development, quality control, and quality assurance services along with regulatory compliance services. We recognize revenue from engineering services over time as the applicable performance obligations are satisfied.

All revenue is recognized net of discounts.

INVENTORIES

Inventories are stated at the lower of cost (first-in, first-out method) and net realizable value. Inventories that are expected to be sold within one operating cycle (1 year) are classified as a current asset. Inventories that are not expected to be sold within 1 year, based on historical trends, are classified as Inventories - long term portion. Obsolete inventory is written off based on prior and expected future usage.

Long-Term Inventory: Due to recent shortages of materials relating to supply chain and COVID issues, when an item the Company believes will be used in the future, even beyond the current fiscal year, becomes available, it will purchase as many items as management deems necessary to fulfill future orders.

PROPERTY AND EQUIPMENT

We record our property and equipment at historical cost. We expense maintenance and repairs as incurred. Depreciation is provided for by the straight-line method over five to seven years, the estimated useful lives of the property and equipment. As of June 30, 2023, all fixed assets were fully depreciated.

ADVERTISING COSTS

Advertising costs are expensed as incurred and amounted to $6,184 and $8,796 for the three months ended June 30, 2023 and June 30, 2022, respectively.

NET LOSS PER SHARE

We compute basic earnings per share by dividing net income/loss by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding. Diluted earnings per share is computed similar to basic earnings per share, except that the denominator is increased to include the number of additional common shares that would have been outstanding if the potential shares had been issued and if the additional shares were dilutive. Common equivalent shares are excluded from the computation of net earnings per share if their effect is anti-dilutive.

There were no anti-dilutive instruments in force during the periods ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively.

Per share basic and diluted (loss) amounted to $(0.00) and $(0.00) for the three months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively.

RECLASSIFICATION

Certain amounts in the prior periods presented have been reclassified to conform to the current period financial statement presentation. These reclassifications have no effect on previously reported net loss.

NEW ACCOUNTING STANDARDS

In June 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2016-13, Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments. The FASB subsequently issued amendments to ASU 2016-13, which have the same effective date and transition date of April 1, 2023. These standards replace the existing incurred loss impairment model with an expected credit loss model and requires a financial asset measure at amortized cost to be presented at the net amount expected to be collected. The Company determined that this change does not have a material impact to the financial statements or financial statement disclosures.

NOTE 3 - INVENTORIES      

NOTE 4 - INTANGIBLE ASSETS

Intangible assets are being amortized using the straight-line method over periods ranging from 10-15 years with a weighted average remaining life of approximately 6 years.

NOTE 5 – CONCENTRATIONS

During the three months ended June 30, 2023, two customers accounted for 40% of our net revenue. During the three months ended June 30, 2022, one customer accounted for 44% of net revenue.

We expressly disclaim any obligation or undertaking to release publicly any updates or revisions to any forward-looking statements contained in this Form 10-Q to reflect any change in our expectations or any changes in events, conditions or circumstances on which any forward-looking statement is based. Factors which could cause such results to differ materially from those described in the forward-looking statements include those set forth under "Item. 1 Description of Business – Risk Factors" and elsewhere in or incorporated by reference into our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended March 31, 2022.

BUSINESS OVERVIEW

The Company is a technology-based developer and manufacturer of diversified lines of products and derives revenue from the production and sale of electronics for medical devices and other applications; environmentally safe chemical products for industrial, medical and cosmetic uses; and, research, development, regulatory and engineering services. The Company has increased internal research and development by utilizing their engineering resources to advance their own proprietary medical device technologies.

The Company is a corporation that was organized under the laws of the State of Delaware on November 24, 1969. Our operations are conducted through ADM and its subsidiary Sonotron.  

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS FOR THE THREE MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2023 AS COMPARED TO JUNE 30, 2022.  

Revenues for the three months ended June 30, 2023 decreased by $158,719. The decrease is a result of decreased sales of $34,170 in the Chemical segment, $198,529 in the Electronics segment offset by an increase of $73,980 in the Engineering segment.

Gross profit for the three months ended June 30, 2023 decreased by $57,917. The decrease in gross profit resulted primarily from decreased sales in Chemical and Electronics segments.

We are highly dependent upon certain customers. During the three months ended June 30, 2023, two customers accounted for 40% of our net revenue. Net revenues from foreign customers for the three months ended June 30, 2023 was $119,034 or 16%.

During the three months ended June 30, 2022, four customers accounted for 82% of our net revenue. Net revenues from foreign customers for the three months ended June 30, 2022 was $125,275 or 14%.

The complete loss of or significant reduction in business from, or a material adverse change in the financial condition of any of our customers could cause a material and adverse change in our revenues and operating results.

Loss from operations for the three months ended June 30, 2023 was $137,796 compared to loss from operations for the three months ended June 30, 2022 of $34,625.

Other income increased $9,576 for the three months ended June 30, 2023. The increase is mainly attributable to an increase in interest income.

The foregoing resulted in net loss before provision for taxes for the three months ended June 30, 2023 of $132,261. Loss per share were ($0.00) for the three months ended June 30, 2023.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES  

At June 30, 2023, we had cash and cash equivalents of $844,731 as compared to $1,003,730 at March 31, 2023. The $158,999 decrease was primarily the result of cash used in operations during the three-month period in the amount of $252,744 and cash provided in financing activities of $93,745. Our cash will continue to be used for increased marketing costs, and increased production labor costs all in an attempt to increase our revenue, as well as increased expenditures for our internal R&D.  We expect to have enough cash to fund operations for the next twelve months.    

Below is a summary of our cash flow for the three-month ending periods indicated:

Future Sources of Liquidity:

We expect that growth with profitable customers and continued focus on new customers will enable us to generate cash flows from operating activities during fiscal 2024.

Based on current expectations, we believe that our existing cash and cash equivalents of $844,731 as of June 30, 2023, and other potential sources of cash will be sufficient to meet our cash requirements. Our ability to meet these requirements will depend on our ability to generate cash in the future, which is subject to general economic, financial, competitive, legislative, regulatory and other factors that are beyond our control.

OPERATING ACTIVITIES 

Net cash used by operating activities was $252,744 for the three months ended June 30, 2023, as compared to net cash used by operating activities of $164,222 for the three months ended June 30, 2022. The cash used during the three months ended June 30, 2023 was primarily due to a decrease in net operating assets of $181,353 combined with a decrease in net operating liabilities of $22,096,  net loss of $132,261offset by write-off of inventories of $19,404, amortization of $20,834, and stock based compensation of $1,032  and non-cash interest expense of $20,113

INVESTING ACTIVITIES

No cash was provided for or used in investing activities for the three months ended June 30, 2023.

FINANCING ACTIVITIES

For the three months ended June 30,2023, net cash provided by financing activities was $93,745 due to a net borrowing and payments in the line of credit of $102,307, a decrease in due to stockholder of $7,217 and repayments on the PPP loan of $1,345.

OFF BALANCE SHEET ARRANGEMENTS

We have no off-balance sheet arrangements that have had or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

Concentration of Credit Risk

Financial instruments that potentially subject us to significant concentrations of credit risk consist primarily of cash and cash equivalents and accounts receivable.

Cash and cash equivalents – For financial statement purposes, the Company considers as cash equivalents all highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less at inception. The Company deposits cash and cash equivalents with high credit quality financial institutions and believes that any amounts in excess of insurance limitations to be at minimal risk. Cash and cash equivalents held at these accounts are currently insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) up to a maximum of $250,000. At June 30, 2023, approximately $638,000 exceeded the FDIC limit.

Our sales are materially dependent on a small group of customers, as noted in Note 6 of our condensed consolidated financial statements. We monitor our credit risk associated with our receivables on a routine basis. We also maintain credit controls for evaluating and granting customer credit. 

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

EVALUATION OF DISCLOSURE CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

The Company's management, including the Company's principal executive officer and principal financial officer, have evaluated the effectiveness of the Company's "disclosure controls and procedures," as such term is defined in Ru1e 13a-15(e) promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, (the "Exchange Act"). Based upon their evaluation, the principal executive officer and principal financial officer concluded that, as of the end of the period covered by this report, the Company's disclosure controls and procedures were not effective for the purpose of ensuring that the information required to be disclosed in the reports that the Company files or submits under the Exchange Act with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") (1) is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC's rules and forms, and (2) is accumulated and communicated to the Company's management, including its principal executive and principal financial officers, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. During the quarterly and year to date period ended December 31, 2022, there were no changes in the Company's internal control over financial reporting which materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company's internal controls over financial reporting. 

The determination that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of June 30, 2023, is a result of:

a. Deficiencies in Internal Control Structure Environment. During the current year, the Company’s focus was on expanding their customer base to initiate revenue production.  

b. Inadequate staffing and supervision within the accounting operations of our company. The relatively small number of employees who are responsible for accounting functions prevents the Company from segregating duties within its internal control system. The inadequate segregation of duties is a weakness because it could lead to the untimely identification and resolution of accounting and disclosure matters or could lead to a failure to perform timely and effective reviews.  The Company’s plan is to expand its accounting operations as the business of the Company expands. 

The Company believes that the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheets as of June 30, 2023, and March 31, 2023 and the related condensed consolidated statements of operations, and cash flows for the three months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles, notwithstanding the material weaknesses we identified. 

CHANGES IN INTERNAL CONTROLS OVER FINANCIAL REPORTING

There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during our last fiscal quarter to which this report relates that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
