Advanced Voice Recognition Systems, Inc.
(A Development Stage Company)
Notes to Unaudited Condensed Financial Statements
Note 1 Nature of Operations
The operations of Advanced Voice Recognition Systems, Inc. (AVRS or the Company), www.avrsys.com commenced in 1994 with a predecessor entity called NCC, Inc. NCC, Inc. was incorporated on March 15, 1994 in the State of Ohio. NCC, Inc. operated as a software and hardware development company that marketed voice recognition and transcription products for commercial applications.
In May 2000, WG Investments, LLC acquired the assets of NCC, Inc. and subsequently changed its name to NCC, LLC. NCC, LLC (also a predecessor to AVRS) continued the operations of NCC, Inc. until approximately December 31, 2001, when shifts in the industrys markets caused NCC, LLC to suspend its operations.
AVRS was incorporated in the State of Colorado on July 7, 2005. In September 2005, the members of NCC, LLC transferred all of their membership interests in NCC, LLC to AVRS in exchange for 93,333,333 shares (post-recapitalization) of AVRS common stock. In December 2005, the Board of Directors approved a 1.5-to-1 stock split issuing 46,666,667 common shares (post-recapitalization), which increased the number of common shares outstanding to 140,000,000 shares (post-capitalization). Following the incorporation of AVRS, the Company initiated a new business plan and intends to continue its operations in the voice recognition and transcription industry.
AVRS specializes in creating interface and application solutions for speech recognition technologies. AVRS has successfully obtained patent protection of its proprietary technology (refer to Note 3, Intangible Assets). The Company plans to focus its technologies for the medical profession because of the professions present extensive use of dictation and its need for multiple applications of speech recognition technology in the generation of reports, documents and medical bills. The Company also plans to focus on the mobile search and voicemail to text market.
The Company is a development stage enterprise in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 7, Accounting and Reporting by Development Stage Enterprises now referred to as ACS 915 Development Stage Entities. The Company has been in the development stage since inception.
Stock Exchange Agreement
On April 28, 2008, the Company entered into a Stock Exchange Agreement with Samoyed Energy Corp., a Nevada corporation (Samoyed), which resulted in a reverse acquisition.
The Stock Exchange Agreement provided for the reorganization of AVRS with Samoyed. In connection with the Stock Exchange Agreement, Samoyed acquired all of the issued and outstanding common shares of AVRS in exchange for 140,000,000 shares of Samoyeds common stock. At the closing of the Stock Exchange Agreement, the former shareholders of AVRS owned approximately 85% of the outstanding common stock of Samoyed, resulting in a change in control.
For accounting purposes, this acquisition has been treated as a reverse acquisition and recapitalization of AVRS, with Samoyed the legal surviving entity. Since Samoyed had, prior to the recapitalization, minimal assets and limited operations, the recapitalization has been accounted for as the sale of 24,700,008 shares of AVRS common stock for the net liabilities of Samoyed. Therefore, the historical financial information prior to the date of the recapitalization is the financial information of AVRS. Costs of the transaction have been charged to the period in which they are incurred.
On May 19, 2008, pursuant to the Stock Exchange Agreement, the Companys shareholders exchanged with, and transferred to Samoyed, all of the issued and outstanding shares of their capital stock. In exchange, Samoyed exchanged with, and issued to, the Companys shareholders 85% (140,000,000 shares) of Samoyeds common stock. In connection with the closing of the Stock Exchange Agreement:
|
| Samoyed delivered to AVRS fully executed documents sufficient to evidence the transfer to Stone Canyon Resources, Inc. (Stone Canyon) of all of Samoyeds oil and gas assets, as well as all of the liabilities related to those oil and gas assets, in exchange for the 22,749,998 shares of Samoyeds common stock then owned by Stone Canyon, which transfer was completed immediately following the closing of the Stock Exchange Agreement. This transfer resulted in the Samoyed shareholders owning 24,700,008 shares of AVRS common stock |
|
| Certain shareholders of Samoyed holding an aggregate of 500,000 shares of Samoyed's common stock paid to Samoyed $250,000. |
| | A shareholder of Samoyed holding an aggregate of 3,500,000 shares of Samoyeds common stock agreed to pay to Samoyed an amount equal to $1,750,000 within 90 days of the closing of the Stock Exchange Agreement, or in the alternative, tender to Samoyed for cancellation two shares of Samoyeds common stock for every $1 not paid. On September 29, 2008, the Company and the shareholder agreed to modify this arrangement to provide that the shareholder would deliver to the Company an aggregate of $1,400,000 on or before November 15, 2008, or in the alternative, tender to the Company for cancellation two and one-half shares (2 ½) of the Companys common stock for every $1 not paid. On January 13, 2009, the Company and the shareholder agreed to further modify this arrangement such that the shareholder is required to deliver to the Company an aggregate of $875,000 on or before March 31, 2009 or in the alternative tender to the Company for cancellation four shares of the Companys stock for every $1 not paid. On May 26, 2009 the Company and the shareholder agreed to modify the agreement such that the shareholder is required to deliver to the Company an aggregate of $790,945 on or before August 31, 2009, or in the alternative tender to the Company for cancellation four (4) shares of Companys common stock for every $1 not paid. On November 18, 2009 the Company and the shareholder agreed to modify the agreement such that the shareholder is required to deliver to the Company an aggregate of $478,606 on or before April 30, 2010, or in the alternative, tender to Company for cancellation 6.45 shares of Companys common stock for every $1 not paid. In 2009 the shareholder made three payments which totaled $52,430 as of December 31, 2009. On March 31, 2010 the Company and the shareholder agreed to modify the agreement such that the shareholder is required to deliver to the Company an aggregate of $216,144 on or before June 1, 2010, or in the alternative, tender to Company for cancellation 14.29 shares of Companys common stock for every $1 not paid. As of September 30, 2010 the shareholder made payments totaling $136,334. |
| | Certain shareholders of Samoyed holding shares of Samoyeds common stock agreed that, commencing on the date the Stock Exchange Agreement closed, and ending on a date one year later, the shareholders would not, without the written consent of Samoyed, (i) sell, offer to sell, contract or agree to sell, hypothecate, hedge, pledge, grant any option to purchase, make any short sale or otherwise dispose of or agree to dispose of, directly or indirectly, certain of their shares of Samoyeds common stock owned directly by them, or with respect to which they have beneficial ownership within the rules and regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, or (ii) enter into any swap or other arrangement that transfers to another, in whole or in part, any of the economic consequences of ownership of those shares of Samoyeds common stock owned directly by them, or with respect to which they have beneficial ownership within the rules and regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission.

Note 2 Significant Accounting Policies
Unaudited Financial Information
The accompanying financial information as of September 30, 2010 and for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2010 and 2009, and the period from March 15, 1994 (inception) through September 30, 2010, is unaudited and have been prepared in accordance with the instructions to quarterly reports on Form 10-Q.. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (which include only normal recurring adjustments) necessary to present fairly the financial position, results of operations and changes in financial position at September 30, 2010, and for all periods presented, have been made. Certain information and footnote data necessary for a fair presentation of financial position and results of operations in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America have been condensed or omitted. It is therefore suggested that these financial statements be read in conjunction with the summary of significant accounting policies and notes to financial statements included in the Companys annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the SEC) for the year ended December 31, 2009. The results of operations for the period ended September 30, 2010 are not necessarily an indication of operating results for the full year.
Going Concern
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. As shown in the accompanying financial statements, the Company is a development stage enterprise with losses since inception and a net capital deficit. These factors, among others, may indicate that the Company will be unable to continue as a going concern for reasonable period of time.
The financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of assets and liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern. The Companys continuation as a going concern is dependent upon its ability to generate sufficient cash flow to meet its obligations on a timely basis and ultimately to attain profitability. During the nine months ended September 30, 2010 and year ended December 31, 2009, the Companys president loaned or advanced the Company funds for working capital on an as needed basis. There is no assurance that these loans or advances will continue in the future. As a condition to closing the Stock Exchange Agreement with Samoyed on May 19, 2008, the Company and one of its shareholders agreed that the shareholder would provide funds to the Company, or in the alternative, tender certain of his shares of the Companys common stock for cancellation described in Note 1. During the nine months ended September 30, 2010, the Company received an aggregate of $670,000 from the sale of shares in private offerings of its common stock.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
The Company considers all highly liquid debt instruments with original maturities of three months or less when acquired to be cash equivalents. The Company had cash and cash equivalents at September 30, 2010 of $31,806 and at December 31, 2009 of $2,961.
Fixed Assets
Fixed assets are stated at cost. Depreciation is calculated using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the related assets, ranging from three to five years. Expenditures for additions and improvements are capitalized, while repairs and maintenance costs are expensed as incurred. The cost and related accumulated depreciation of property and equipment sold or otherwise disposed of are removed from the accounts and any gain or loss is recorded in the year of disposal.
Fixed assets consist of the following:

Depreciation expense totaled $1,158 and $1,113 for the nine months ended September 30, 2010 and 2009 respectively.
Income taxes are provided for the tax effects of transactions reported in the financial statements and consist of taxes currently due plus deferred taxes related primarily to differences between the recorded book basis and the tax basis of assets and liabilities for financial and income tax reporting. Deferred tax assets and liabilities represent the future tax return consequences of those differences, which will either be taxable or deductible when the assets and liabilities are recovered or settled. Deferred taxes are also recognized for operating losses that are available to offset future taxable income and tax credits that are available to offset future federal income taxes. The Company believes that its income tax filing positions and deductions will be sustained on audit and does not anticipate any adjustments that will result in a material adverse effect on the Companys financial condition, results of operations, or cash flow. Therefore, no reserves for uncertain income tax positions have been recorded pursuant to ASC 740. The Company did not record a cumulative effect adjustment related to the adoption of ASC 740.
Patents, Deferred Costs and Amortization
Patents consist of costs incurred to acquire issued patents. Amortization commences once a patent is granted. Costs incurred to acquire patents that have not been issued are reported as deferred costs. If a patent application is denied or expires, the costs incurred are charged to operations in the year the application is denied or expires. The Company amortizes its patents over an estimated useful life of twenty years. The carrying value of the first patent is $63,247 with $46,380 amortized and a balance at September 30, 2010 of $16,867. The carrying balance of the second patent is $58,277 with $5,865 amortized and a balance at September 30, 2010 of $ $52,412. The weighted average arrives at a period of 13.75 years based on a period of 16.1 years for patent #1 and 12.4 years for patent #2, weighted for the total amount capitalized on each patent. Amortization expense totaled $6,681 and $4,335 for nine months ended, September 30, 2010 and 2009, respectively. Estimated aggregate amortization expense for each of the next five years is as follows:

Impairment and Disposal of Long-Lived Assets
The Company evaluates the carrying value of its long-lived assets under the provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standard (SFAS) No. 144, Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets now referred to as ASC 360-10 Property, Plant, and Equipment Impairment or Disposal of Long Lived Assets subsections . ASC 306-10 requires impairment losses to be recorded on long-lived assets used in operations when indicators of impairment are present and the undiscounted future cash flows estimated to be generated by those assets are less than the assets carrying amount. If such assets are impaired, the impairment to be recognized is measured by the amount by which the carrying amount of the assets exceeds the fair value of the assets. Assets to be disposed of are reported at the lower of the carrying value or fair value, less costs to sell.
Loss per Common Share
The Company reports net loss per share using a dual presentation of basic and diluted loss per share. Basic net loss per share excludes the impact of common stock equivalents. Diluted net loss per share utilizes the average market price per share when applying the treasury stock method in determining common stock equivalents. At September 30, 2010 and 2009, there were no variances between the basic and diluted loss per share as there were no potentially dilutive securities outstanding.
On November 13, 1995, the Company filed a patent application with the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office, which was granted on September 28, 1999 as patent #5,960,447, Word Tagging and Editing system for Speech Recognition. In accordance with 35 USC 154, the term for the above referenced patent commences on the date on which the patent issues and ends 20 years from the date on which the application for the patent was filed in the United States. The above referenced U.S. Patent will expire on November 13, 2015.
The Company monitors the anticipated outcome of legal actions, and if it determines that the success of the defense of a patent is probable, and so long as the Company believes that the future economic benefit of the patent will be increased, the Company capitalizes external legal costs incurred in the defense of the patent. Upon successful defense of litigation, the amounts previously capitalized are amortized over the remaining life of the patent.
On July 7, 2009, Patent No.: US 7,558,730 B2 titled Speech Recognition and Transcription Among Users Having Heterogeneous Protocols was issued by the United States Patent and Trademark Office. In accordance with 35 USC 154, the patent commences on July 7, 2009 and ends 20 years from the application date of November 27, 2001. The patent will expire on November 27, 2021. The deferred fees were capitalized during the quarter ended September 30, 2009 and the Company began amortization.
On March 9, 2010 the United States Patent and Trademark Office declared interference between the Company as Senior Party and Allvoice Developments, US LLC as Junior Party. Interference is a proceeding conducted by the USPTO in instances where two or more parties claim patent rights to the same technology. The U.S. patent system awards patents to the first party to invent a particular technology. In an interference, the primary purpose of the USPTO is to determine which party invented the technology first, and to award the patent to that party. The Patent Office presumes that the parties made their inventions in the order of the filing dates accorded to their patent applications the party with the earliest filing date is referred to as the senior party, while those with later filing dates are junior parties. If the parties survive the preliminary patentability phase, then the burden of proof to establish priority resides with the junior party. The Company understands that Allvoice, as the junior party, will bear the burden of proof in establishing priority, and thus will have to show that its inventors invented the technology covered by the interfering subject matter ahead of the Companys inventors in order to retain its patent. On March 12, 2010 the Company retained legal counsel for representation in the interference proceedings. Costs incurred for the interference proceeding are reported as deferred costs. Amortization commences once the interference is granted and patent is issued. If the interference is denied costs are charged to operations in the year they are denied. As of September 30, 2010 the Company reported $1,068,860 as deferred costs. Oral argument before a three judge panel on all issues raised is expected to occur in January 2011.

Advanced Voice Recognition Systems, Inc. (the Company, we or us), was incorporated in the State of Nevada on August 31, 2005 as Samoyed Energy Corp., an oil and gas company. In May 2008, we consummated a stock exchange with the shareholders of Advanced Voice Recognition Systems, Inc., a Colorado corporation (AVRS), and consequently, AVRS became our wholly-owned subsidiary. In May 2008, we also transferred our oil and gas assets to Stone Canyon Resources, Inc. In June 2008, AVRS merged with and into us and we changed our name to Advanced Voice Recognition Systems, Inc. As a result of the stock exchange and the transfer of our oil and gas assets, our current operations are those of AVRS, and our fiscal year became that of AVRS and now ends on December 31st.
Our common stock has been quoted on the Over-the-Counter Bulletin Board, also referred to as the OTCBB, since April 2007. Prior to June 19, 2008, our ticker symbol was SMYD, and on June 19, 2008, following our name change, our ticker symbol changed to AVOI. Our website is located at www.avrsys.com.
AVRS was incorporated on July 7, 2005. In May 2000, WG Investments, LLC, a Colorado limited liability company formed that same year, acquired all of the assets of NCC, Inc., an Ohio corporation, and all rights, title and interests in and to U.S. Patent #5,960,447. Promptly following the acquisition, the members of WG Investments, LLC voted to change its name to NCC, LLC. In 2005, the members of NCC, LLC exchanged their membership interests in NCC, LLC for shares of common stock of AVRS.
On March 25, 2009, we entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (Agreement and Plan of Merger) with our wholly-owned subsidiary, NCC, LLC, a Colorado limited liability company, whereby NCC, LLC merged with and into us pursuant to Section 92A.180 of the Nevada Business Corporations Act. Upon consummation of the Agreement and Plan of Merger; (i) NCC, LLC ceased to exist; (ii) our member interests in NCC, LLC automatically were canceled or retired and ceased to exist, without any consideration delivered in exchange thereof; (iii) the title to all estate, property rights privileges, powers and franchise assets and/or other rights owned by NCC, LLC became vested in us without reversion or impairment; and (iv) all liabilities of any kind of NCC, LLC became vested in us. As a result, we own U.S. Patent #5,960,447. Additionally, we own U.S. Patent #7,558,730.
We are a software development company headquartered in Scottsdale, Arizona, with an office in Mitchell, South Dakota. We specialize in creating interface and application solutions for speech recognition technologies. Our speech recognition software and related firmware was first introduced in 1994 at an industry trade show. We currently have limited capital resources. We are not currently engaged in marketing any products. Our principal assets are our patents. Our business strategy will be to attempt to interest other companies in entering into license agreements or other strategic relationships and to support and defend our patents through infringement and interference proceedings, as appropriate.
Liquidity and Capital Resources; Results of Operations
We completed a stock exchange on May 19, 2008 and changed our business model. We have not generated any revenue since inception and do not have any cash generating product or licensing sales. We are a development stage enterprise that has incurred losses since inception.
At September 30, 2010, we had current assets of $161,806, and current liabilities of $1,101,079, as compared to $16,857 current assets and $357,403 in current liabilities at September 30, 2009. Our increase in current assets is attributable to our equity funding agreements. Our increase in current liabilities primarily is due to an increase in Accounts Payable for deferred costs relating to the interference proceedings.
We had a net loss of $96,165 and $124,514 for the three months ended September 30, 2010 and 2009 respectively, as compared to a net loss of $543,680 and $357,031 for the nine months ended September 30, 2010 and 2009 respectively. The increase in net loss is attributable to increased prepaid expenses and professional fees incurred in conjunction with the declaration of interference in the USPTO.
During the nine months ended September 30, 2010, $377,602 cash was provided by operating activities and $1,068,860 of cash in investing activities, as we received $720,103 of cash from the sale of our common stock. As a result, for the nine months ended September 30, 2010, we recognized a $28,845 net increase in cash on hand. For the nine months ended September 30, 2009 we used $46,835 of cash in operating activities and $4,635 of cash in investing activities, and received $50,430 of cash provided by financing activities. We recognized a $1,040 decrease in cash on hand.
Historically, our president has loaned or advanced to us funds for working capital on an as needed basis. There is no assurance that these funds, loans or advances will continue in the future. Because of our history of losses, net capital deficit and lack of assurance of additional financing, the audit report on our financial statements contains a going concern opinion regarding doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.
In an attempt to address our financing needs, we have made sales of our common stock in private transactions.
During the three months ended September 30, 2010, the Company entered into Stock Purchase Agreements for the private sale to five persons of an aggregate of 3,100,000 shares of its common stock for aggregate proceeds of $250,000. One of the purchasers was the Companys Chairman of the Board who purchased 600,000 shares for $50,000.
During the period from October 19, 2010 to November 4, 2010, the Company entered into Stock Purchase Agreements for the private sales to four persons of an aggregate of 9,642,857 shares of the Companys common stock, and the Company received aggregate proceeds of $750,000.
In an attempt to address our financing needs, on March 10, 2010 and May 4, 2010 the Company entered into two separate purchase agreements each with two shareholders to provide funding for its operations. At September 30, 2010 the Company had received an aggregate of $420,000 in connection with the sale of the shares. The shareholders committed to purchase an aggregate of $980,000 of additional shares of the Companys common stock. At September 30, 2010 those shares have not been paid. It is unknown whether any additional shares will be purchased. In addition, during the third quarter the Company entered into five stock purchase agreements to purchase an aggregate of $250,000 of 3,100,000 additional shares of the Companys common stock. Payment was received in the third quarter.
We will require additional debt or equity financing or a combination of both in order to carry out our business plan. We expect to incur substantial legal fees and costs in connection with the interference proceeding with Allvoice, and we will likely continue to incur expenses in defending our patents and pursuing license agreements. We plan to raise additional funds through future sales of our securities, until such time as our revenues are sufficient to meet our cost structure, and ultimately achieve profitable operations. There is no assurance we will be successful in raising additional capital or achieving profitable operations. Our board of directors may attempt to use non-cash consideration to satisfy obligations that may consist of restricted shares of our common stock. These actions would result in dilution of the ownership interests of existing shareholders and may further dilute our common stock book value.
To obtain sufficient funds to meet our future needs for capital, we will from time to time, evaluate opportunities to raise financing through some combination of the private sale of equity, or issuance of convertible debt securities. However, future equity or debt financing may not be available to us at all, or if available, may not be on terms acceptable to us. We do not intend to pay dividends to shareholders in the foreseeable future.
U.S. Patent #5,960,447 includes 42 claims that we believe cover an extremely broad base of features applicable to existing ASR products and markets. We intend to use our patent protection to our advantage by licensing or otherwise. If our licensing and other efforts prove successful, our liquidity may increase.
U.S. Patent #7,558,730 expands an extremely broad base of features in speech recognition and transcription across heterogeneous protocols. The deferred costs totaling $58,277 at September 30, 2009 have been capitalized and amortization began in the third quarter 2009.
In order for our operations to continue, we will need to generate revenues from our intended operations sufficient to meet our anticipated cost structure. We may encounter difficulties in establishing these operations due to our inability to successfully prosecute any patent enforcement actions or our inability to effectively execute our business plan.
If we do not raise additional capital, or we are unable to obtain additional financing, or begin to generate revenues from our intended operations, we may have to scale back or postpone the development and marketing of our products or the enforcement of our patent rights until such financing is available.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
We have no off-balance sheet arrangements.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures.
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Our management, with the participation of our chief executive officer, who also is our chief financial officer, evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) and pursuant to Rules 13a-15(b) and 15d-15(b) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the Exchange Act) as of September 30, 2010. Disclosure controls and procedures are controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed or submitted under the the Exchange Act, such as this Form 10-Q, is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time period specified in the SECs rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and is communicated to our management, including our principal executive and principal financial officers, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. In designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures, management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives. In addition, the design of disclosure controls and procedures must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints and that management is required to apply its judgment in evaluating the benefits of possible controls and procedures relative to their costs.
Based on our evaluation, our chief executive officer, who also is our chief financial officer, concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures are designed at a reasonable assurance level and were fully effective as of September 30, 2010 in providing reasonable assurance that information we are required to disclose in reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in SEC rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our chief executive officer and chief financial officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
Changes in internal control over financial reporting.
We regularly review our system of internal control over financial reporting and make changes to our processes and systems to improve controls and increase efficiency, while ensuring that we maintain an effective internal control environment. Changes may include such activities as implementing new, more efficient systems, consolidating activities, and migrating processes.
There were no changes in our internal controls over financial reporting that occurred during the period covered by this Form 10-Q that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
As discussed in Note 3 to the Financial Statements in Part I of this 10-Q Report, the Company is involved in a material interference proceeding conducted by the USPTO. Oral argument before a three judge panel on all issues raised is expected to occur in January 2011.
