ALR TECHNOLOGIES INC.
Notes to Interim Consolidated Financial Statements
($ United States)
Nine months Ended September 30, 2009 and 2008
(Unaudited)


1. Basis of presentation

ALR TECHNOLOGIES, INC. (the "Company") was incorporated under the laws of the State of Nevada on March 24, 1987 as Mo Betta Corp. On December 28, 1998, the Company changed its name from Mo Betta Corp. to ALR Technologies Inc. The Company has developed a line of medication compliance reminder devices and compliance monitoring systems that will assist people with taking their medications and treatments on time and allow for health care professionals to remotely monitor and intervene as necessary if a person is noncompliant.

In April 2008, the Company incorporated a wholly-owned subsidiary in Canada, Canada ALRTech Health Systems Inc. and its activities have been included in the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

These financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America on a going concern basis which presumes the realization of assets and the discharge of liabilities and commitments in the normal course of operations for the foreseeable future.

Several adverse conditions cast substantial doubt on the validity of this assumption.  The Company has incurred significant operating losses over the past several fiscal years (nine months period ended September 30, 2009 - $1,515,192; 2008 - $1,403,243; 2007 -$1,190,019), is currently unable to self-finance operations, has working capital deficit of $6,999,928 as at September 30, 2009,  $12,324,804 as at December 31, 2008 (2007 - $10,769,177), a deficit of $27,210,792 as at September 30, 2009 , $25,695,600 as at December 31, 2008  (2007 - $23,796,490), limited resources, no source of operating cash flow and no assurances that sufficient funding will be available to conduct further product development and operations.

The Company's ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon the continued financial support of its creditors and its ability to obtain financing to repay its current obligations and fund working capital and its ability to achieve profitable operations. All of the Company's debt financing is either due on demand or is overdue and now due on demand. The Company will seek to obtain creditors' consents to delay repayment of these outstanding promissory notes payable until it is able to replace this financing with funds generated by operations, replacement debt or from equity financings through private placements or the exercise of options and warrants. While the Company's creditors have agreed to extend repayment deadlines in the past, there is no assurance that they will continue to do so in the future. Management plans to obtain financing through the issuance of shares on the exercise of options and warrants and through future common share private placements. Management hopes to realize sufficient sales in future periods to achieve profitable operations. The resolution of the going concern issue is dependent upon the realization of management's plans. There can be no assurance provided that the Company will be able to raise sufficient debt or equity capital, from the sources described above, on satisfactory terms. If management is unsuccessful in obtaining financing or in achieving profitable operations, the Company will be required to cease operations. The outcome of these matters cannot be predicted at this time.  The Company is currently financed by loans from a relative of a director of the Company.

The financial statements do not give effect to any adjustments which could be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern and, therefore, be required to realize its assets and discharge its liabilities in other than the normal course of business and at amounts differing from those reflected in the financial statements.

2. Significant accounting policies

The information included in the accompanying interim consolidated financial statements is unaudited and should be read in conjunction with the annual audited financial statements and notes thereto contained in the Company's Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2008. In the opinion of management, all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments, necessary for fair presentation of the results of operations for the interim periods presented have been reflected herein. The results of operations for the interim periods presented are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the entire fiscal year.

a) Stock-based compensation:

The Company estimates the fair value of share-based payment awards on the date of grant using an option pricing model.  The value of the portion of the award that is ultimately expected to vest is recognized as an expense over the requisite service period in the Company’s financial statements.  Stock-based compensation recognized during the period is based on the value of the portion of the stock-based payment awards that are ultimately expected to vest during the period.  The Company estimates the fair value of stock options using the Black-Scholes valuation model.  The Black-Scholes valuation model requires the input of highly subjective assumptions, including the option’s expected life and the price volatility of the underlying stock.  The expected stock price volatility assumption was determined using historical volatility of the Company’s common stock.

b) Basic and diluted net loss per common share

Basic net loss per common share is calculated by dividing the net loss by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the year. Diluted net loss per common share is calculated by dividing the net loss by the sum of the weighted average number of common shares outstanding and the dilutive common equivalent shares outstanding during the year. Common equivalent shares consist of the shares issuable upon exercise of stock options and warrants calculated using the treasury stock method. Common equivalent shares are not included in the calculation of the weighted average number of shares outstanding for diluted net loss per common share when the effect would be anti-dilutive.

c) Principles of consolidation

These consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiary, Canada ALRTech Health Systems Inc. (incorporated in British Columbia, Canada). All significant inter-company balances and transactions have been eliminated.

d) Recent accounting pronouncements

In May 2009, the FASB issued new guidance for accounting for subsequent events.  The new guidance, which is now part of ASC 855-10, Subsequent Events (formerly, SFAS No. 165, Subsequent Events) is consistent with existing auditing standards in defining subsequent events as events or transactions that occur after the balance sheet date but before the financial statements are issued or are available to be issued, but it also requires the disclosure of the date through which an entity has evaluated subsequent events and the basis for that date. The new guidance defines two types of subsequent events: “recognized subsequent events” and “non-recognized subsequent events.” Recognized subsequent events provide additional evidence about conditions that existed at the balance sheet date and must be reflected in the company’s financial statements.  Non-recognized subsequent events provide evidence about conditions that arose after the balance sheet date and are not reflected in the financial statements of a company.  Certain non-recognized subsequent events may require disclosure to prevent the financial statements from being misleading.  The new guidance was effective on a prospective basis for interim or annual periods ending after June 15, 2009.  The Company adopted the provisions as required.

Effective January 1, 2008, the Company adopted ASC 825, which permits entities to choose to measure many financial instruments and certain other items at fair value that are not currently required to be measured at fair value. The adoption of ASC 825 did not have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements.

In April 2009, the FASB issued ASC 825-10.  ASC 825-10 extends disclosure requirements to interim period financial statements, in addition to the existing requirements for annual periods and disclosure of the methods and significant assumptions used to estimate fair value.  ASC 825-10 is effective for interim and annual periods ending after June 15, 2009. The adoption of ASC 825-10 did not have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements.

In June 2009, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 166, Accounting for Transfers of Financial Assets, an amendment to SFAS No. 140 (“SFAS 166”). SFAS 166 eliminates the concept of a "qualifying special-purpose entity," changes the requirements for derecognizing financial assets, and requires additional disclosures in order to enhance information reported to users of financial statements by providing greater transparency about transfers of financial assets, including securitization transactions, and an entity's continuing involvement in and exposure to the risks related to transferred financial assets. SFAS 166 is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2009. The Company will adopt SFAS 166 in fiscal 2010.  The Company does not expect that the adoption of SFAS 166 will have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements.

In June 2009, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No.167, Amendments to FASB Interpretation No. 46(R) (“SFAS 167”).  The amendments include: (1) the elimination of the exemption for qualifying special purpose entities, (2) a new approach for determining who should consolidate a variable-interest entity, and (3) changes to when it is necessary to reassess who should consolidate a variable-interest entity.  SFAS 167 is effective for the first annual reporting period beginning after November 15, 2009 and for interim periods within that first annual reporting period. The Company will adopt SFAS 167 in fiscal 2010. The Company does not expect that the adoption of SFAS 167 will have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements.

In June 2009, the FASB issued new guidance which is now part of ASC 105-10 (formerly Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 168, The FASB Accounting Standards Codification and the Hierarchy of Generally Accepted Accounting Principles), (“SFAS 168”). SFAS 168 replaces FASB Statement No. 162, "The Hierarchy of Generally Accepted Accounting Principles", and establishes the FASB Accounting Standards Codification as the source of authoritative accounting principles recognized by the FASB to be applied by nongovernmental entities in the preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles. SFAS 168 is effective for interim and annual periods ending after September 15, 2009. The adoption of SFAS 168 did not have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements.

The Company's inventories consists of product parts and finished goods inventories. The Company has expended significant efforts introducing its Human Prescription Reminders ("Med Reminders") to disease management companies, home care companies, pharmaceutical manufacturers, health management organizations, pharmacy benefits managers and certain clinics treating specific disease conditions. Sales to December 31, 2008 have not been sufficient for the Company to realize its investment in these inventories. Management plans to recover its investment in inventories through sales via the channels indicated above and through international markets. As of December 31, 2008, management had recorded a provision of $263,520 (December 31, 2008 - $263,520) in respect of its Med Reminder inventory.

4. Prepaid expenses and deposits

The Company's has prepaid expenses of $10,041 during the period.

5. Promissory notes payable

During the nine months ended September 30, 2009, the Company received a total of $154,879 from a relative of a director in exchange for promissory notes payable. The promissory note is due on demand with interest at 1.0% per month and is secured by a floating charge against assets of the Company. As further consideration, 620,000 options exercisable into common shares of the Company at an exercise price of $0.25 per share for a period of five years were issued (see note 6(b)).

On September 4, 2009, the Company received a Notice of Credit to Judgment from the Superior Court of the State of North Carolina, whereby the Company was ordered to pay the two notes payable creditors an aggregate payment of $675,000, being partial payment of total interest outstanding plus $40,000 legal fees. On the same date, this partial judgment was assigned to a relative of a director. (note 7)

During the year ended December 31, 2008, the Company entered into an agreement with a non-related party whereby the Company received a total $450,000 over a four-month period starting from March 2008 in exchange for promissory notes payable. The promissory note is due for repayment on September 30, 2009 with interest at 1.0% per month and is unsecured. As further consideration, 1,800,000 options exercisable into common shares of the Company at an exercise price of $0.25 per share until March 31, 2013 were issued. The stock-based compensation arising from this stock option has been estimated to be $104,534 using the Black-Scholes option pricing model and amortized as interest expenses over the loan period. As of September 30, 2009, the unamortized interest was $0.

During the nine month period ended September 30, 2009, a promissory note repayable in Canadian dollars to a director increased by $13,115 due to unfavorable exchange rate changes with the United States dollars.

Compensation cost related to these options, being the fair value of the options, has been estimated to be $54,044 and charged to interest expense. The weighted average per share fair value of these options issued in the period was $0.09.

Of the total granted, 3,000,000 were granted with vesting conditions based on certain performance targets.  Even though a final measure of the value of compensation cost does not occur until performance is complete, the estimated fair value of these options was recognized as at December 31, 2008 in the amount of $84,210 and charged to product development costs.  This amount has been prorated based on the expected performance period.  In consideration of providing loan advances aggregating $569,328 to the Company, 2,278,000 options were granted and vested immediately. Compensation costs related to these options, being the fair value of the options, has been estimated to be $121,591 of which $71,191 has been charged to interest expense and $50,400 has been classified as deferred interest expenses. The balance of the 850,000 stock options were granted for services and vested immediately.

The fair value of the options was determined using the Black-Scholes option pricing model, using the expected life of the options of 5 years, volatility factors of 188%, risk-free interest rate of 2.72% and zero dividend rate. The Company applies zero forfeiture rate in calculating stock-based compensation expenses.

During the year ended December 31, 2008, the Company cancelled 9,500,000 stock options from a director and 1,000,000 stock options from non-employees, all of which were not vested nor recorded as stock-based compensation expense prior to cancellation.  The remaining 2,000,000 stock options that were vested immediately were cancelled as per settlement agreement with a former consultant.

11. Financial instruments

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The Company’s financial instruments consist of cash, accounts receivable, accounts payable, and accrued liabilities, promissory notes, advances payable and interest payable. The carrying amounts of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued liabilities approximate their respective fair values because of the short maturities of those instruments. The carrying value of the promissory notes, advances payable and interest payable reflects the Company’s legal obligation as the amounts have passed their maturity dates.

12. Subsequent event

Subsequent event has been evaluated through November 13, 2009, the date these financial statements were issued.  There was no event that requires disclosure other than those already disclosed above.

ITEM 2.                  MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION ANDRESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Forward Looking Statements

The following information must be read in conjunction with the unaudited Financial Statements and Notes thereto included in Item 1 of this Quarterly Report and the audited Consolidated Financial Statements and Notes thereto and Management's Discussion and Analysis or Plan of Operations contained in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2008. Except for the description of historical facts contained herein, the Form 10Q contains certain forward-looking statements concerning future applications of the Company's technologies and the Company's proposed services and future prospects, that involve risk and uncertainties, including the possibility that the Company will: (i) be unable to commercialize services based on its technology, (ii) ever achieve profitable operations, or (iii) not receive additional financing as required to support future operations, as detailed herein and from time to time in the Company's future filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission and elsewhere. Such statements are based on management's current expectations and are subject to a number of factors and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those described in the forward-looking statements.

Critical Accounting Policies

The preparation of our 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 as of the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reported periods. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions. We believe the accounting polices that are most critical to our financial condition and results of operations and involve management's judgment and/or evaluation of inherent uncertain factors are as follows:

Basis of Presentation. The financial statements have been prepared on the going concern basis, which assumes the realization of assets and liquidation of liabilities in the normal course of operations. If the Company were not to continue as a going concern, it would likely not be able to realize on its assets at values comparable to the carrying value or the fair value estimates reflected in the balances set out in the preparation of the financial statements. As described in note 1 to the interim financial statements, at September 30, 2009, there are certain conditions that exist which raise substantial doubt about the validity of this assumption. The Company's ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon continued financial support of its creditors and its ability to obtain financing to repay its current obligations and fund working capital and its ability to achieve profitable operations. The Company will seek to obtain creditors consent to delay repayment of its outstanding promissory notes payable until it is able to replace this financing with funds generated from operations, replacement debt or from equity financing through private placements or the exercise of options and warrants. While the Company's creditors have agreed to extend repayment deadlines in the past, there is no assurance that they will continue to do so in the future. Management plans to obtain financing through the issuance of additional debt, the issuance of shares on the exercise of options and warrants and through future common share private placements. Management hopes to realize sufficient sales in future years to achieve profitable operations. Failure to achieve management's plans may result in the Company curtailing operations or writing assets and liabilities down to liquidation values, or both.

Prepaid expenses and deposits. Prepaid expenses and deposits primarily consists of prepaid commission expenses for market development purposes.





- 16 -

 
 

 

Inventories. Inventories are recorded at the lower of cost, determined on a weighted average cost basis, and net realizable value. Net realizable value reflects the current estimated net selling price or value in use of the item in inventory in a non-forced sale. The Company assesses the need for inventory write-downs based on its assessment of the estimated net realizable value using assumptions about future demand and market conditions. When the results of these assumptions differ from the Company's projections, an additional inventory write-down may be required.

Revenue recognition. The Company recognizes sales revenue at the time of delivery when title has transferred to the customer, persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, the fee is fixed and determinable and the sales proceeds are collectible. Provisions are recorded for product returns based on historical experience. Sales revenue, in transactions for which the Company does not have sufficient historical experience, is recognized when the return privilege period has expired. Changes in sales terms could materially impact the extent and timing of revenue recognition.

Stock-Based Compensation. The fair value of options at the date of grant was estimated using the Black-Scholes option pricing model. The expected option life is derived from assumed exercise rates based upon historical exercise patterns and represents the period of time that options granted are expected to be outstanding. The expected volatility is based upon historical volatility of our shares using daily price observations over an observation period of five years. The risk-free rate is based on the U.S. treasury rate in effect at the time of grant for periods similar to the expected option life. Due to the Company’s history with respect to forfeitures of incentive stock options, the estimate of expired or cancelled options included in the above option valuation was zero.

Valuation of Long-lived Assets The Company assesses the potential impairment of long-lived tangible and intangible assets whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value may not be recoverable. Changes in the operating strategy can significantly reduce the estimated useful life of such assets.

Results of Operations

Management is focusing the majority of its efforts on introducing and marketing the HealthEConnect health management platform and its diabetes management system to the healthcare industry. A health services company based in Georgia has been signed on and has successfully gained customer commitments to implement the HealthEConnect diabetes management system. Corporations that are self-insured are being targeted due to the potential benefits they can achieve with the ALRT HealthEConnect and CHC system. Expected results are better health outcome with their employees and dependents along with lower cost of care for these targeted individuals with diabetes.

The Company is first targeting customers located in United States and in Canada. Pilot programs have been established in each and with pilot outcome results now becoming available, extensive selling activities are being planned for currently in process.

Sales revenue for the quarter ended September 30, 2009 was $0 as compared to $0 for the same quarter last year. There were no sales as the Company's new product is in the final stage of development and early stage of marketing campaign.  The Company is fine-tuning the HealthEConnect healthcare management software platform and coordination of software protocols from the various diagnostic equipment such as glucometers necessary for remote monitoring through the ALRT HealthEConnect.

Sales revenue for the nine months ended September 30, 2009 was $0 as compared to $10,926 for the same nine months period last year. The decrease in sales was mainly due to the Company's new product is in the final stage of development and early stage of marketing campaign.  The Company is fine-tuning the HealthEConnect healthcare management software platform and coordination of software protocols from the various diagnostic equipment such as glucometers necessary for remote monitoring through the ALRT HealthEConnect.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Cash Balances and Working Capital

As of September 30, 2009, the Company's cash balance was $414 compared to $7,901 as of December 31, 2008. As of September 30 2009, the Company had a working capital deficiency of $6,999,928 as compared to a working capital deficiency of $12,324,804 as of December 31, 2008.   The decrease was mainly due to the conversion of debt into subscribed common shares of the Company in the amount of $6,762,473.

Short and Long Term Liquidity

As of September 30, 2009, the Company does not have the current financial resources and committed financing to enable it to meet its overheads, purchase commitments and debt obligations over the next 12 months.

All of the Company's debt financing is either due on demand. The Company will seek to obtain creditors' consents to delay repayment of these loans until it is able to replace these financings with funds generated by operations, replacement debt or from equity financings through private placements or the exercise of options and warrants. While the Company's creditors have agreed to extend repayment deadlines in the past, there is no assurance that they will continue to do so in the future. Failure to obtain either replacement financing or creditor consent to delay the repayment of existing financing could result in the Company having to curtail operations.

Cash Provided by (Used in) Operating Activities

Cash used by the Company in operating activities during the nine months ended September 30, 2009 was $162,366 in comparison with $448,303 used during the same period last year. The decrease was mainly due to decreased payments to suppliers during the current period.

Cash Proceeds from Financing Activities

During the nine months ended September 30, 2009, the Company received $154,879 loan from a relative of a director as compared to $450,000 from a non-related party and $68,000 from a relative of a director during in the nine months period of 2008.

Off Balance Sheet Arrangement

The Company has no off balance sheet financing arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on the Company’s financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources, that is material to investors.

The Company's ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon the continued financial support of its creditors and its ability to obtain financing to repay its current obligations and fund working capital and its ability to achieve profitable operations. All of the Company's debt financing is either due on demand or is overdue and now due on demand. The Company will seek to obtain creditors' consents to delay repayment of these outstanding promissory notes payable until it is able to replace this financing with funds generated by operations, replacement debt or from equity financings through private placements or the exercise of options and warrants. While the Company's creditors have agreed to extend repayment deadlines in the past, there is no assurance that they will continue to do so in the future. Management plans to obtain financing through the issuance of shares on the exercise of options and warrants and through future common share private placements. Management hopes to realize sufficient sales in future periods to achieve profitable operations. The resolution of the going concern issue is dependent upon the realization of management's plans. There can be no assurance provided that the Company will be able to raise sufficient debt or equity capital, from the sources described above, on satisfactory terms. If management is unsuccessful in obtaining financing or in achieving profitable operations, the Company will be required to cease operations. The outcome of these matters cannot be predicted at this time.  The Company is currently financed by loans from a relative of a director of the Company.
